Effectiveness of a community-based intervention in changing knowledge of and attitudes towards early marriage in The Gambia
Authors: Lowe Mat
Published: September 2024

A study was conducted to assess the effects of a multi-component community-based project intervention on changing knowledge of, and attitudes towards early marriage for girls in The Gambia. The study involved a cross-sectional household survey of 201 male and female parents and 296 adolescent boys and girls aged 10-19. It also included two community-based focus group discussions and six key informant interviews. The study compared the project baseline and midline data in the analysis of the survey data. The findings show a significant increase from a baseline of (44.8%) to (70.7%) at midline among the parents who have the view that the girl needs to come of age (18 years) before going into marriage. At both baseline and midline, there is a fear that girls may break their virginity by indulging in premarital sex if they do not marry early. However, there was a significant decrease from (51.7%) at baseline to (10%) (p-value <0.001) in the proportion of parents who think girls must marry early to avoid premarital sex. The findings show between (2%) and (7%) increase from baseline to midline on the view among adolescent boys and girls that girls have the right to choose who to marry. Findings from the focus group discussions and key informant interviews directly linked the changes in knowledge of attitudes towards early marriage among parents and adolescents to the project intervention.
सामाजिक परिवर्तन में शिक्षा और स्त्री शिक्षा की भूमिका
Authors: Ranjan Priya
Published: September 2024

व्यक्ति स्वभाव से ही एक गतिशीलप्राणी है। अतः मानव समाज कभी भी स्थिर नही रहता उसमें सदैव परिवर्तन हुआ करता है। परिवर्तन संसार का नियम है। परिवर्तन किसी भी वस्तु, विषय, विचार, व्यवहार अथवा आदत में समय के अन्तराल से उत्पन्न हुई भिन्नता को कहते है। परिवर्तन एक बहुत बड़ी अवधारणा है और यह जैविक, भौतिक तथा सामाजिक तीनो जगत में पाई जाती है किन्तु जब परिवर्तन शब्द के पहले सामाजिक शब्द जोड़कर उसे सामाजिक परिवर्तन बना दिया जाता है तो निश्चित ही उसका अर्थ सीमित हो जाता है परिवहन निश्चित है क्योकि यह प्रकृति का नियम है। संसार में कोई भी पदार्थ नही जो स्थिर रहता है उसमें कुछ न कुछ परिवर्तन सदैव होता रहता है। स्थिर समाज की कल्पना करना आज के युग मे संभव नहीं है। समाज में सामंजस्य स्थापित करने के लिए परिवर्तन आवश्यक है। मैकाईवर एवं पेज का कहना है कि समाज परिवर्तनशील तथा गत्यात्मक दोनों है। वास्तव में समाज से संबंधित विभिन्न पहलुओं में होने वाले परिवर्तन को सामाजिक परिवर्तन कहते है। सामाजिक परिवर्तन एक स्वभाविक प्रक्रिया है यदि हम समाज में सामंजस्य और निरंतरता को बनाये रखना चाहते है तो हमें यथा स्थिति अपने व्यवहार को परिवर्तनशील बनाना ही होगा। यदि ऐसा न होता तो मानव समाज की इतनी प्रगति संभव नहीं होती। निश्चित और निरंतर परिवर्तन मानव समाज की विशेषता है। सामाजिक परिवर्तन का विरोध होता है क्योंकि समाज में स्ढीवादी तत्व प्राचीनता से ही चिपटे रहना पसंद करते है। स्त्रियों की शिक्षा स्वतंत्रता व समान अधिकार की भावना, स्त्रियों का आत्मनिर्भर होना, यौन शोषण पर रोक, भूण हत्या की समाप्ति और ऐसे अनेक सामाजिक कुरूतियाँ है जिसमें परिवर्तन को आज भी समाज के कुछ तत्व स्वीकार नहीं कर पाते है।
शिक्षा ने समाज में फैले इन कुरुतियों के परिणाम को बताने का प्रयास किया है लोगों के बीच चेतना जागृत करने का प्रयास किया है। वही स्त्री शिक्षा परिवार की शिक्षा है जिस परिवार की स्त्री शिक्षित है उस परिवार की सोच, विचार, रहन-सहन सभी में बदलाव नजर आते है वे परिवार अपने रुढीवादी विचारों को नकारते है और मानवीयता, नैतिकता और सामाजिक सहिसुन्नता के आधार पर सामाजिक संबंधो का निर्माण करता है। प्रत्येक कार्य के महत्व को समझते हुए उसे सम्पन्न करने का प्रयास करता है। समाज की जड़ता को समाप्त करने के शिक्षा तथा स्त्री शिक्षा की अतुलनीय योगदान है। इसी का परिणाम है कि आज समाज के वे परम्परागत कोढ़ जो समाज की स्वच्छ संरचना को समाप्त कर रहा था आज उन्नमूलन की अवस्था में है।
Application of Political Sociology in the Indian Context
Authors: Swechaa Siingh
Published: September 2024

Independence and the establishment of a democratic republic in India gave rise to the field of political sociology inside the country. It became imperative for the social science fields, particularly sociology and political science, to comprehend not just how contemporary political institutions work, but also how the conventional social fabric of Indian society would adapt to this new political order, in light of this seismic shift. This unique focus on society within Indian political theory is what ultimately led to the development of political sociology. Many Indian sociologists and social scientists set out in the years after India's independence to decipher the shifting social milieu in which political conduct was taking place. A new field of study called political sociology was necessary due to the complex nature of the landscape at the intersection of politics and society. Regardless, the importance of both sociology and political science remained unabated, especially because political sociology emerged as a branch of sociology, despite their close relationship. Examining the work of Dipankar Gupta, this article delves deeply into the history of political sociology in India. His work illuminates the pre- and post-independence social and political climates, as well as the ways in which both the traditional and contemporary values that were embraced thereafter were able to coexist.
Advanced Techniques for Improving Model Robustness in Adversarial Machine Learning
Authors: Raghuwanshi Prashis
Published: September 2024

This work investigates advanced methods for improving the resilience of machine learning models against adversarial attacks. Ensuring that these models can withstand deliberately crafted inputs—called adversarial examples—has become critical as machine learning expands into high-stakes fields such as computer vision, cybersecurity, and healthcare. The study examines several types of adversarial attacks, including black-box attacks, where the attacker has no direct knowledge of the model, and white-box attacks, where the attacker has complete access to the model. Popular defense strategies, such as the Fast Gradient Sign Method (FGSM), Iterative FGSM (I-FGSM), and the Carlini and Wagner (C&W) attack, are also discussed. The work emphasizes how adversarial learning contributes to creating more resilient models by addressing both theoretical foundations and practical applications. This thorough investigation highlights the strengths and weaknesses of current approaches, as well as the ongoing need for advancements to protect model integrity against evolving threats.

Published: September 2024

Technology has a significant impact on various aspects of our life, and the Internet is rapidly becoming a major venue for young people to socialise. Due to its voracious capacity to rapidly retrieve desired information, the Internet has become an essential tool for teenagers or anyone of many age groups seeking access to knowledge. Consequently, it is become a form of learning process identified by both parents and children’s and are struggling to deny their children. In addition, it has been a platform enabling individuals to express their thoughts and opinions, as well as interact with people who share similar interests globally. The impact of social media platforms can vary based on the user's aims and the level of attention and involvement of its members. It can either be advanced–to–facetious or harmful. Recognize that the digital engagement strategies that work in urban and suburban areas may not have the same results in rural communities. They can enhance connectedness and access to information, but  excessive use may disrupt face – to face communication and mental health.  Additionally, social media can lead to cyberbullying, false information, unrealistic expectations, and reduced in-person interaction, Social Media Interaction is the volume of likes, comments, and shares on the social platform, the content satisfaction of users, the right product, and the right targeted audience and ad engagement rate increases.

Authors: Khan Zahid Yousuf , Bhat Shabir Ahmad , Ishfaq Ahmad
Published: September 2024

The India-China border conflict is a longstanding and very complicated territorial dispute with significant historical, cultural, and strategic dimensions. This paper provides a comprehensive analysis by delving into the historical events and factors that have contributed to the emergence and persistence of the conflict. It investigates the competing territorial claims over Aksai Chin and Arunachal Pradesh, highlighting the legal, historical, and geopolitical arguments presented by both the countries. The study evaluates the strategic implication of the conflict in contemporary geopolitics, including its impact on regional stability, alliances, and great power dynamics. It also analyses the patterns and mechanisms of escalation and de-escalation observed in the conflict, including military manoeuvres, diplomatic exchanges, and crisis management efforts. Finally, the paper explores potential pathways for resolving the tensions through diplomatic negotiations, confidence-building measures, and regional cooperation initiatives. Understanding these issues allows the paper to provide meaningful policy recommendations to lessen tensions and promote peace and stability in the region. The study shows that the roots of the conflict trace back to early 20th-century British and Russian expansions in Central Asia, with the McMahon Line and Aksai Chin remaining significant flashpoints. The strategic implications extend beyond the bilateral relationship, affecting regional and global power dynamics. Through a detailed understanding of the conflict, this research aspires to identify viable solutions for one of Asia’s most enduring territorial disputes. The steps to resolve the conflict should include bilateral negotiations, regional cooperation, and international involvement for long term bilateral, regional and international peace and stability respectively.

COMPARATIVE STUDY OF VAAYU MUDRAA VS RIITESH MUDRAA FOR CONTROLLING SPASTICITY, DROOLING, GAIT AND VOLUNTARY URINE CONTROL IN CEREBRAL PALSY
Authors: Sinha Riitesh
Published: September 2024

Cerebral palsy (CP) refers to a group of neurological disorders that, because of brain damage, impairs regular body movements and coordination due to loss of motor and other nerve function. CP is also known as spastic paralysis or Paralysis-spastic which was previously known as Little’s Disease. is caused by injuries to the cerebrum (the most significant part of the brain), which may occur as the baby grows in the womb or near the time of birth or due to internal injury up to the age of three. CP leads to impaired body movement and muscle coordination which deteriorate with age and affect normal livelihood. In the present study, a total of 21 healthy and 42 CP affected persons were subjected to perform Vaayu mudraa or Riitesh Mudraa for three months. Half of the persons from CP group practiced Vaayu mudraa and another half Riitesh Mudraa for 45 minutes per day. Pulse rate, walking speed, drooling and voluntary urine control was recorded at 0th day and 90th day of the treatment. Data have shown that, as compared to CP persons who practiced Vaayu Mudraa, CP patients who practiced Riitesh Mudraa showed significantly (P<0.01) lower pulse rate, improved walking speed (spasticity), drooling, gait and voluntary urine control. Thus, from this study, it can be concluded that Riitesh Mudraa can be a suitable alternative therapeutic tool for the CP persons as a replacement of hard exercises for the betterment of healthy performance of usual habit and livelihood.
Ch. 3. Humour, Ethnography, and Embassy: Herodotus, Histories 3.17–25 and Aristophanes, Acharnians 61–133
Authors: Mash Mark C.
Published: September 2024

This paper explores connections between historiography and Old Comedy by analysing two prominent embassy scenes: first, Herodotus’ depiction of the visit of the ‘Fish Eaters’, chosen emissaries of the Persians, to the court of the Ethiopian king (3.17-25), and second, the scene from Aristophanes, Acharnians (61-133) in which Dicaeopolis meets the Athenian ambassadors who have returned from Persia, bringing a Persian ambassador with them. Both the historian and the comic poet employ ethnic humour, the manipulation of stereotypes, deceptive ambassadors, and the theme of food and wine to create the themes and characters of these meetings, and the paper argues that the two scenes evince significant affinities.

The Fairest Victor: Plutarch, Aristides and the Persian Wars
Authors: Marincola John
Published: September 2024

Plutarch’s narratives of the Persian Wars assign a place of primary importance to Aristides the Just and give him an influence not seen in any other source. At Marathon, Salamis, and Plataea, Aristides is front and center, not only taking part in the battles but also and especially offering sage counsel, reconciling differences, and managing the fractiousness of the Athenians and the Greek commanders. This prominent role assigned to Aristides probably results from Plutarch’s concern in his own day (as evidenced, for example, in the Political Precepts) with concord and harmony amongst the ruling elite, and Aristides thus becomes for Plutarch an exemplum of how the statesman should conduct himself vis-à-vis his colleagues and the people at large.
Not the Consular Year: Perverting Annalistic Time in Sallust
Authors: Cowan Robert
Published: September 2024

The consular dating formula situates a work of historiography in the annalistic tradition (or alludes to it from outside) and evokes a complex of Republican norms. Time becomes Republican time and is organised according to the reassuring rhythms of the regular elections, tenures, and relinquishments of magistracies. Scholars have shown how Livy and Tacitus manipulate the formula’s associations to dramatise the disruption or obsolescence of these constitutional forms. Throughout his three works, Sallust produces an even wider range of effects by ironic deployment and radical deformation of the formula.
Empedocles Arbiter Symposii: Luxury, Political Equality, and Bizarre Dinner Parties in Fifth-Century Acragas

This paper analyses Empedocles’ contribution to Sicilian politics as described by the ancient sources cited by Diogenes Laertius. It offers a close analysis of a bizarre anecdote by Timaeus (FGrHist 566 F 134), where Empedocles got rid of a potential tyrant to preserve political equality, also in the light of other ancient accounts in which Empedocles is described as a man of his people.
Thucydides’ Ἔργα
Authors: Rawlings Hunter R.
Published: September 2024

This paper argues that in order to understand Thucydides 1.22, his well-known chapter on methodology, we need to grasp the central message of 1.20–3. In this passage, unified by the ‘Herodotean’ word ἔργα, which he adapts for his novel purpose, Thucydides claims that he has, through careful and critical research, reproduced precisely in writing the deeds done in ‘his war’. He explicitly does not claim such accuracy for his speeches, nor for his pre-war excursuses, such as the Archaeology and the Pentekontaetia. His phrase for this kind of rhetorically sophisticated ‘approximation’ of the truth is ἀγώνισμα ἐς τὸ παραχρῆμα ἀκούειν.
Historiarum Libri Quinque: Hegesippus between Josephus and Sallust
Authors: Stover Justin A. , Woudhuysen George
Published: September 2024

This article examines the influence of Sallust on Hegesippus, the fourth-century historian and adaptor of Josephus (commonly referred to as pseudo-Hegesippus). Analysis of the structure of his work reveals that Hegesippus strove to write in five books to mirror the Histories of Sallust. Consideration of the lengths of those books and of other evidence then shows that Sallust’s Histories were themselves written in five substantial books of ca. 20,000 words. Finally, it is suggested that comparison of writers in the Sallustian tradition may be able to expand our knowledge of Sallust’s largely lost magnum opus.

Coastal areas have a relatively high diversity of aquatic organisms, including molluscs. The existence of molluscs has a significant role in maintaining environmental stability and supporting the socio-economic life of coastal communities. Coastal communities on Ambon Island often carry out mollusc utilization activities when seawater is low, which occurs in the morning, afternoon and evening. However, some also do it from evening to early morning. Using these molluscs can cause problems with the diversity and abundance of molluscs and their environmental habitat if carried out with high time intensity and volume of collection and using equipment that is not environmentally friendly. Based on these problems, it is necessary to carry out outreach activities for the younger generation, who are agents of change and successors of the nation, regarding the importance of the existence of mollusc resources in coastal areas for community life and the environment. This outreach activity is also part of the conservation character education that we want to provide from an early age. This activity is carried out through several stages: analyzing the problem and preparing and implementing activities. This service activity was attended by 50 students from class IX junior high school. Community service activities went well, and a very positive response was received from the participants. The success of this activity can also be seen from the participant's responses to the evaluation results before and after the activity, which showed a significant increase in their understanding and knowledge of the counselling material.

The main focus of the research is to determine the extent of community participation in the development process and to identify the factors that support and hinder such participation. Data collection was carried out using a natural setting approach, utilizing primary data sources. The methods used included observation, interviews, and documentation. The results of the study indicate that community participation in development in Negeri Morella Village is still relatively low, particularly in the planning stages of development programs and activities. Nevertheless, the local government continues to involve the community in the implementation process. Interviews revealed that some community members are less active in participating, due to personal interests and social conditions. However, there are also community members who are quite active in contributing, especially in terms of labor. Despite this, some community members are less informed about the procedures for overseeing development. The factors influencing community participation include age, gender, education level, occupation, income, and environmental conditions. This research provides important insights into community participation in development in Negeri Morella Village, as well as the factors that influence it.

Purpose: This study was conducted to investigate the relationships among pain, occupational balance and quality of life in women with fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS). Material and methods: The study included 52 women with FMS with pain severity of 5 or more according to the Visual Analog Scale. Sociodemographic data were recoded; Occupational Balance Questionnaire and Nottingham Health Profile (NHP) were used. Results: According to the results, correlations were found between pain intensity and sub-parameters of quality of life (energy, pain, emotional reactions and physical mobility) (r=.428 p=.002; r=.339 p=.014; r=.451 p=.001; r=.277 p=.046 and r=.399 p=.003, respectively). In addition, significant relationships were detected between occupational balance and NHP-energy; emotional reaction; and total score (r=.365 p=.008; r=.320 p=.021, r=0.301 p=.030, respectively). Discussion: In this syndrome, where the most prominent symptom is pain, it has been particularly observed that the intensity of pain adversely affects an individual's quality of life. Quality of life, which is an indicator of an individual's health and well-being, has also been found to be associated with occupational balance. In conditions such as fibromyalgia, which negatively impact various aspects of life, it would be beneficial to utilize indicators such as occupational balance and quality of life during intervention planning with a holistic approach.

Runik Harfli Metinlerde Deyimler
Authors: Sel Pınar

Diller, tek tek sözcüklerden ziyade, belli dilbilgisel ve sözdizimsel kısıtlamalarla bir araya gelmiş sözcük birliktelikleri ile işlemektedir. Bu sözcük birliktelikleri dillerde; kalıp sözler, ikilemeler, deyimler, eşdizimli yapılar, atasözleri vb. şekillerde karşımıza çıkmaktadır.
Sözcük birlikteliklerinin en ilgi çekici olanlarından biri deyimlerdir. Deyimler, toplumların geçmişini, kültürünü, hayatı yaşama şeklini ve bakış açısını yansıtır. Türkçe deyimler üzerine çok sayıda çalışma yapılmış olmasına karşın, deyimlerin sınırlarının çizilmesinde hâlâ birtakım problemler ile karşılaşılmaktadır. Deyimlerin sınırlarının çizilememesi, onların başka sözcük birliktelikleri ile karıştırılmasına yol açmakta; bu durum da sözlükçülük, ana dili ya da yabancı dil öğretimi gibi konularda birtakım zorluklara yol açmaktadır. Hem ulusal hem de uluslararası alanda birçok araştırmacı, deyimler belirlenirken ve deyim sözlükleri hazırlanırken bu problemle karşı karşıya kalındığına dikkat çekmektedir. Deyimlerin sınırlarının çizilmesindeki en büyük problemlerden biri, deyimlerin eşdizimli yapılarla karıştırılmasıdır. Eşdizimli yapılarla deyimlerin ortak ve farklı yönlerini araştıran ve aralarındaki sınırları çizmeye yönelik sözdizimsel/ dilbilgisel biçimlenmişlik, genelleşme, anlamsal açıklık/ kapalılık, değiştirilebilirlik/ yerine konabilirlik, anlamsal birlik, özelleşmiş anlam parçaları gibi ölçütler geliştiren bir dilbilim dalı olan deyimbilim (phraseology), bu problemlerin çözümü için yol gösterici niteliğindedir.
Bu çalışmada, deyimlerin sınırları daha önce yapılan araştırmalar ve deyimbilimsel ölçütler aracılığıyla çizilmeye çalışılmış, Türkçenin en eski metinleri olan runik harfli yazıtlardaki deyimleri belirlemeye yönelik bir öneri sunulmuştur.
»My mom and I are freakishly linked«

Auf der letzten GfPS-Jahrestagung »Tradieren und Transformieren. Erbschaften und Brüche in der psychoanalytischen Sozialpsychologie«, die vom 16. bis 18. November 2023 in Frankfurt stattfand, brachte das Podium »My mom and I are freakishly linked« feministische Denkerinnen unterschiedlicher Disziplinen und Generationen zusammen, um gemeinsam über die Frage nach Erbschaften und Brüchen in feministischer Theorie und Bewegung nachzudenken. Auf dem Podium sprechen Katharina Lux, Christa Rohde-Dachser, Barbara Umrath, Laura Baade und Julia König, moderiert wurde die Diskussion von Hanna Brögeler. Der Veranstaltungstitel »My mom and I are freakishly linked« stammt aus der US-amerikanischen Serie Gilmore Girls, die von dem sehr engen, freundschaftlichen Verhältnis zwischen einer alleinerziehenden Mutter und ihrer Tochter handelt, die sie in sehr jungem Alter bekommen hat. Während in der Podiumsdiskussion Erfahrungen mit generationalen Zerwürfnissen oder gescheiterten feministischen Projekten durchaus zur Sprache kommen, teilen mehrere Besucher*innen in einem für das Publikum offenen Schlusspart ihren Eindruck, dass sie von der Diskussion irritiert sind. Als mögliche Gründe für die Irritation werden u.a. der fragmentierte Charakter des Gesprächs und die fehlende Austragung von Konflikten auf dem Podium genannt.
