Women's life expectancy in Sabah for 2010 was 78.3 years, declining by 2.3 years to 76 years in 2020. Women's life expectancy is intrinsically linked to maternal and child health. All other states in Malaysia recorded rising life expectancies for both women and men except for Sabah, which is the country's poorest state with the highest non-citizen population. This study aimed to understand the demography, case characteristics and causes of maternal mortality in Sabah from 2015 through 2020. Data analyses were performed using Microsoft Excel. A total of 371 maternal deaths were reviewed. The mean age of the women who died was 30 years, and the majority (20.2%) were gravida 2. 72.78% were non-citizens of Malaysia, with 26.95% Malaysian citizens. Majority of deceased women, 56.7%, never attended antenatal visits prior to their death in the latest pregnancy. Overall, 63.88% deaths were due to direct obstetric causes, postpartum haemorrhage was the leading direct cause of death (24.53%), and most of the maternal deaths (65.5%) were preventable. There is evidence that further emphasized the importance of increasing access towards quality antenatal care and skilled birth attendants during delivery, especially for non-citizens of Malaysia. This which calls for intersectoral collaboration to ensure affordable, quality antenatal, delivery and family planning services for non-citizens of Malaysia. Increasing health promotion regarding the importance of attending antenatal visits is imperative to reduce maternal deaths.

Studies on the role of social context in understanding why breast cancer patients are diagnosed at an advanced stage in developing countries are scarce. This study described delays in medical consultation among women with breast cancer in West Sumatera Province and its related factors. A hospital-based, cross-sectional design was conducted involving 218 respondents. Multiple logistic regression analysis was performed to determine the association between early treatment practices and respondent characteristics, breast cancer knowledge, symptoms, health service utilization, and social capital. The study found that 69.7% of respondents sought health services within three months after the first signs notification. Most of those who postponed medical consultation thought their symptoms did not indicate an illness and were not harmful (48.5%). Delay in medical consultation was related to low education level (OR=4.8, 95% CI: 1.37-16.62) and lower knowledge of breast cancer (OR=2.3, 95% CI: 1.18-4.39) This study found that an increase of one unit in the social capital score resulted in an 11% (0.11) decrease in the odds of delaying medical consultation for breast cancer (95% CI: 0.19-0.02). One-third of breast cancer patients were found to have delayed medical consultation, related to lower education level, inadequate knowledge of breast cancer, and lack of social capital. Therefore, education on the importance of prompt medical consultation should reach all community members. Social capital building is needed to introduce the message of early detection and early treatment of breast cancer for community members to share.

Published: December 2023

Dental treatment is an important topic, especially for primary school students. Parents' knowledge, attitudes, perceptions, and socioeconomic status are potentially significant factors in improving dental treatment. In 2021, parents of ten primary school students in Tripoli participated in a survey of their children during school time. A cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted in ten randomly selected primary schools across Tripoli, the capital of Libya. A total of 293 respondents were approached using a systematic sampling technique. A previously validated and published questionnaire was used with minimal modifications. Knowledge, attitudes, and perceptions were analyzed using a scoring system based on the number of correct or favorable answers provided by parents. According to our results, parents of primary school students exhibited a high knowledge score of 60.4% regarding dental treatment. Approximately 41.7% of participants displayed a positive attitude towards dental treatment, while 40.2% held a negative attitude. Most parents practiced poor oral health care for their children, with 52.2% individuals scoring poorly, indicating that 52.2% had inadequate dental treatment practices. In general, the variables explained a total of 61.6% of the variation in dental treatment. The findings of this study demonstrate the positive impact of knowledge (B=0.192, P-value<0.05), attitude (B=0.339, P-value<0.05), income (B=0.161, P-value<0.05), and education (B=0.134, P-value<0.05) on dental treatment. However, position and perception had an insignificant effect. Respondents varied based on their socioeconomic status, with high education and income respondents differing from those with low education and income. This study highlights the implications and limitations of the research and provides suggestions for future research after the COVID-19 pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic has given rise to numerous psychological problems among healthcare workers, which are directly related to inadequate knowledge, incorrect attitudes, and inadequate perception. Nevertheless, timely interventions and accurate information have the potential to safeguard the mental well-being of healthcare professionals during the novel coronavirus epidemic.

This year marks the centenary of the birth of Mykhailo Petrovych Kuchera, and this date allows turning again to the analysis and comprehension of the scholar’s rich scientific experience and heritage. In 1950, while still a student and a front-line soldier, Mykhailo Petrovych already as a draftsman participated in the work of the Podil detachment of the Great Kyiv Expedition under the leadership of V. A. Berezovets. M. P. Kuchera’s skill to draw plans and profiles like an expert determined in many ways the features of his field methodology and a high qualitative level of documentation processing. Starting from the 1950s, he had been conducting field research for more than 50 years throughout Ukraine. Analysis M. P. Kuchera’s field activities with the help of GIS specially developed by the authors and the database of field reports of the scholar, reveal the widest geography of his research, as he examined and recorded 500 archaeological sites. Most of his force and time (20 seasons) M. P. Kuchera devoted to the exploration of annalistic Kyiv Land. The scholar paid most attention to the study of Old Rus fortification and hill-forts. By the end of the 1970s, he had prepared a monographic study of Old Rus hill-forts in Ukraine published unfortunately after his death in 1999. Since 1974, Mykhailo Petrovych headed an expedition for 12 years which aim was to identify, documentary record, and archaeologically and reliably date the legendary Zmiiv ramparts of the Dnipro River middle region. It was found out that 23 Zmiiv ramparts grouped into 9 lines, have a length of almost 1000 km and were built in the Old Rus period for protection from the nomads. Serial concrete irrefutable constructive, stratigraphic, and archaeological evidence of the time of creation and purpose of rampart lines were revealed. The implementation of such a long, large-scale, and significant project is a real scientific feat of the scientist. Mykhailo Petrovych is also highly respected as a creator of the Old Rus ceramics’ typology and chronology, and as the first person who singled out and described the post-Mongolian ceramics. The scholar made a great contribution to the study of the complex et hno-cultural structure of the Rus-Ukrainian population. M. P. Kuchera’s theoretical concepts, applied practical scientific research methods, and scientific heritage as a whole, need a special comprehensive study and further development.
CONTRIBUTION OF O. V. SUHOBOKOV TO THE RESEARCH OF THE HISTORICAL AND CULTURAL HERITAGE OF THE NORTH EAST OF THE LEFT BANK UKRAINE
Authors: Bilynska L. I.
Published: December 2023

This article is dedicated to O. V. Sukhobokov, Ukrainian archaeologist, researcher of Slavic and Rus’ history, Doctor of Historical Sciences. His scientific interests were focused on the Early Slavic and Old Rus’ archaeology of the left bank of the Dnipro forest-steppe area, and the history of the Eastern Slavic tribe of Siverians.

The research conducted by O. V. Sukhobokov at the head of the Left Bank Slavic-Rus’ Expedition of the Institute of Archaeology of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine became an important stage in the historical and archaeological study of the northeastern region of the Dnipro area, in particular the territory of the modern Sumy oblast. The expedition explored such significant sites as Kurgan-Azak, Bytytsia, Volyntseve, Monastyryshche, Kamiane, Nytsakha, Lukhtivka, Igorivka, and Zelenyi Gai. As a result, scientists confirmed the founding date of the cities from the Kievan Rus’ Chronicles such as Lubny, Putyvl, and Romny.

After multiple years of research on the Left Bank the original concept of the historical process in the Dnipro—Don interfluve was developed by O. V. Sukhobokov. Scientists have brought together an immense amount of materials from field research and reconstructed the ethnic processes and development of the Slavic population of the left bank Dnipro at the second half of the 1st and the beginning of the 2nd millennium AD.

The achievements of the Left Bank Slavic-Rus’ expedition became the basis for further research, scientific debates, and were discussed at conferences and seminars. They are presented in numerous articles, and five monographs. Three monographs are dedicated to the sites of the Sumy region: «Putyvl and its region in the Kievan Rus’ time (on the archeological materials)» (1990), «“Unknown Land”: the population of the Middle Psel basin in the 10th—13th centuries AD (on the materials of the Romny-Kievan Rus’ sites in the Kamennoe settlement)» (2012), «Ancient Putyvl» (2019) in co-authorship with S. P. Yurenko. V. Sukhobokov made a lot of efforts to preserve the historical and cultural heritage of Ukraine, popularize archaeological sites, and arrange archaeological sections of the Collection of Historical and Cultural Sites of Ukraine in the Sumy and Poltava oblast (as a scientific consultant).

While working on the territory of Sumy oblast, the scientist established close cooperation with the Sumy Museum of Local Lore, as well as regional museums. The fund collections of the Putyvl, Romny, and Sumy museums have significantly grown and are represented in their exhibitions. For many years, O. V. Sukhobokov was a member of the editorial board of the journal Sumska Starovyna.

The scientific and creative heritage of O. V. Sukhobokov is currently used by historians, archaeologists, as well as museologists, university professors, and school teachers in their professional studies.
CERAMIC COMPLEX OF THE 19th CENTURY POTTERY KILN IN THE MEDZHYBIZH VILLAGE
Authors: Pohorilets O. H. , Vietrov V. S. , Chmil L. V.
Published: December 2023

The paper is devoted to the characteristics of materials obtained during the research of the remains of the 19th century pottery kiln discovered in Medzhybizh village, Khmelnytskyi region. Medzhybizh pottery has been known since the 17th century, and the documents of the pottery workshop date back to the 18th—19th centuries. Also at the beginning of the 20th century A. Prusevich carried out an ethnographic survey of the pottery of this center. The researcher noted Medzhybizh as one of the significant centers for the production of the glaze pottery.

In 2018, a pottery kiln was discovered in the central part of the town during protective archaeological excavation. Probably it can belong to the class of heating-technical structure with vertical or mixed (horizontal-vertical) flow of hot gasses. The kiln was filled with a large number of fragments of defective ceramics and semi-finished products.

According to technological characteristics almost all pottery are made of red or brown ferruginized clays. The molding mass is quite thin, without visible impurities. Dark brown, red, white, and green paints were used for the decoration of products as well as transparent, colorless, green, and brown glazes. Many fragments are burnt and deformed.

According to their functional purpose the vast majority of finds are pots, pans, bowls and plates. Semi-finished products of painted bowls and plates make up the bulk of products. These are vessels after the first firing, without glaze, covered with white or red engobe. A significant part of them is painted in the techniques of rizhkuvannja and fliandrivka. A group of vessels made in the sgraffito technique, unusual for Podillia, also stands out. They are decorated with plant motifs, two fragments have images of birds. A similar completed bowl made in the sgraffito technique, was discovered in 2017 on the territory of the castle. On the outside surface it contains the inscriptions in Hebrew. This may indicate other bearers of pottery traditions who arrived in Medzhybizh at the beginning of the 19th century and worked on their technologies for quite a long time.

This research allows us to draw conclusions about the high level of pottery in Medzhybizh in the 19th century, the mass production of fliandrivka technique red clay bowls as well as the existence at that time of the tradition of making pottery in the sgraffito technique which was obviously brought to the region from the south or southwest. In the main features of the forms and ornamentation of ceramic dishes the similarity with the pottery of the Middle Dnieper region can be traced though there are also significant distinctive features that characterize the pottery of Podillia at this time.

The article presents the T-shaped fibula of the East European champleve enamels style from Shediieve, tract Ihnativka (fig. 1) in Poltava region. Fragments of hand-made pottery and amphorae are revealed on a partly explored site. Ceramic assemblage is typical for the settlement of Late Zarubintsy sites of Kartamyshevo 2 and Ternovka 2 type.

The fibula belongs to the later modifications — the third stage («degradation of style») according G. F. Korzukhina or «Kompaniitsi» phase according E. L. Gorohovsky. The closest analogy is the fibula from Nyzhnii Byshkin. Certain analogies (fig. 2) can be seen in the finds from the «territory of Ukraine», «Vasylkivsky» and «Kanivsky» districts, Svatkiv, Nagolny, Podgornoye II, Malik, Neyzats cemetery, crypt 480. Fibula from the crypt 480 of Neyzats cemetery dates to the second half — the end of the 4th century.

The items with slots of the developed phase of style can be considered the prototypes of the find from Shediieve (fig. 3). These are fibulae from Duna, Kamunta, Hryhorivka and two from Bryansk hoard. Certain similar features can be seen in the T-shaped fibula from the Verkhnie Pohromne.

Fibula of the East European champleve enamels style from Shediieve may be associated with the penetration of the people of Kyiv culture in the Cherniakhiv area. These processes are traced on the materials of settlements and cemeteries. The most complete catalog of such sites for the Middle Dnieper and the Dnieper Left Bank was compiled by N. S. Abashyna, A. M. Oblomskyi and R. V. Terpylovskyi (1999). This list can be supplemented by the settlement of Pereshchepyno 2 in Middle Vorskla and Dmytrivka III in Lower Psel. The same processes are associated with the discovery of T-shaped fibulae from the Kompaniitsi cemetery, burial 2, the hoard from Sukhonosivka / Postav-Muky and two bronze cast bracelets from Pliutentsi.
TO THE QUESTION ABOUT THE CHERNYAKHIV—SINTANA-DE-MUREŞ CULTURE BEARERS’ SHOES

Published: December 2023

Sources for the study and reconstruction of the shoes of Chernyakhiv—Sintana-de-Mureş Culture’s bearers are finds of shoe sets (buckles and strap-ends), as well as a half-boot-shaped clay beaker from Kaborga. Analysis of archaeological materials allows to solve the questions of the date and origin of shoes with straps, but unfortunately do not give any idea about their kind. Ceramic model compensates for it. The prototypes of barbarian shoes as well as half-boots are known by many images of the 1st—2nd cent. However, neither of them includes shoes with straps. A brief review of late antique footwear researches’ results provides almost complete information about it’s composition, distinctive features for different layers of ancient society, and the opposition of ancient and barbarian footwear in iconography. The Carrand Diptych, which depicts half-boots with straps, is of great importance for the disclosure of the topic. In addition, the expansion of the research’s source base allows us to take a new look at the spread of shoe fashion with a set, as well as to propose some hypotheses about shoes of the Chernyakhiv—Sintana-de-Mureş Culture’s bearers. 1. I propose to consider the clay beaker from Kaborga as a model of roman calcei. 2. «Fashion» for shoes with straps at the end of the 4st — the first half of the 5st cent. among the population of the South-Western Crimea arose and spread, thanks to the Alans. However, another explanation is also possible. The prototype of such shoes could be depicted on the Stilicho, on the diptych from Monza. The shoes of such kind could be gifted to the Bosporian elite and it preserved in the form of gold shoe buckles and strap-ends in the polychrome style from the Kerch tombs. 3, 4. I propose to consider possible usage of stockings by women and possible «offering» of an additional pair of shoes in the Chernyakhiv—Sintana-de-Mureş Сulture’s graves.
Forensic Journalism in India

Criminalistics, another name for forensic science, is the application of science to criminal and civil legislation.Investigative journalism is the parent discipline of forensic journalism. A forensic journalist follows the “TenGolden Rules” in order to ascertain the truth and spot errors by studying and researching it in any accessiblemedium. When forensics, which is thought of as combining science and law, is combined with journalism, anew phrase known as “forensic journalism” is created. Although not new in wealthy western nations, forensicjournalism is a new field in our nation. It is challenging to pursue this as a career option since being a successfulforensic journalist requires enthusiasm, tenacity, hard effort, patience, and my other attributes. Investigativejournalism is a type of reporting where reporters delve closely into a specific subject of interest, such as significantcrimes, government corruption, or corporate misconduct. Forensic journalism, which goes beyond what mostjournalists do, is described as being practised when journalists cross the boundaries between journalism and lawin order to achieve something socially, and there is overlap in this action. This action frequently aids in revealingthe truth and justice by gathering information that is admissible and withstands the scrutiny in court. Currently,journalism focuses on issues, whereas forensic journalism focuses on solutions to those problems. Broadcastingmedia, which is seen to be considerably more opinionated owing to organised discussion sessions, is a very closeillustration of this discipline. In fact, forensic journalism compromises between the media organisation and thelegal authorities. By structuring the reports so that they concentrate on the details of the entire crime under consent,the reports serve the interests of the media organisation, law enforcement agencies, as well as the general publicand make the news much more interesting and informative. In other words, via forensic journalism, the mediafinally stands up for what it believes to be right.
PISA 2022. Reporting Australia’s results. Volume I: Student performance and equity in education

The Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) is an international comparative study of student performance directed by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD). PISA measures 3 core domains of reading literacy, mathematical literacy, and scientific literacy. The assessment focuses on young people’s ability to apply their knowledge and skills to real-world problems and situations. The term ‘literacy’ reflects a focus on broader skills. As a concept, literacy is more than simply being able to read and write. Eighty-one countries or economies, involving around 690,000 students, participated in PISA 2022. In Australia, 743 schools and a total of 13,437 students (representing the full population of around 265,000 15-year-old students) completed the assessment. In Australia, PISA is managed by the Australian Council for Educational Research and is jointly funded by the Australian Government and all state and territory governments. PISA is a key part of Australia’s National Assessment Program. This report presents the results for Australia as a whole, for the Australian states and territories and for the other groups in PISA 2022. The results can be viewed in an international context, and student performance can be monitored over time. The results also allow for nationally comparable reports of student outcomes against the Alice Springs (Mparntwe) education declaration (Education Council, 2019).
Greater target or lure variability? An exploration on the effects of stimulus types and memory paradigms

In recognition memory, the variance of the target distribution is almost universally found to be greater than that of the lure distribution. However, these estimates commonly come from long-term memory paradigms where words are used as stimuli. Two exceptions to this rule have found evidence for greater lure variability: a short-term memory task (Yotsumoto et al., Memory & Cognition,36, 282–294 2008) and in an eyewitness memory paradigm (Wixted et al., Cognitive Psychology,105, 81–114 2018). In the present work, we conducted a series of recognition memory experiments using different stimulus (faces vs. words) along with different paradigms (long-term vs. short-term paradigms) to evaluate whether either of these conditions would result in greater variability in lure items. Greater target variability was observed across stimulus types and memory paradigms. This suggests that factors other than stimuli and retention interval might be responsible for cases where variability is less for targets than lures.
Obsolescence effects in second language phonological networks
Authors: Luef Eva Maria
Published: December 2023

Phonological networks are representations of word forms and their phonological relationships with other words in a given language lexicon. A principle underlying the growth (or evolution) of those networks is preferential attachment, or the “rich-gets-richer” mechanisms, according to which words with many phonological neighbors (or links) are the main beneficiaries of future growth opportunities. Due to their limited number of words, language lexica constitute node-constrained networks where growth cannot keep increasing in a linear way; hence, preferential attachment is likely mitigated by certain factors. The present study investigated obsolescence effects (i.e., a word’s finite timespan of being active in terms of growth) in an evolving phonological network of English as a second language. It was found that phonological neighborhoods are constructed by one large initial lexical spurt, followed by sublinear growth spurts that eventually lead to very limited growth in later lexical spurts during network evolution. First-language-given neighborhood densities are rarely reached even by the most advanced language learners. An analysis of the strength of phonological relationships between phonological word forms revealed a tendency to incorporate phonetically more distant phonological neighbors at earlier acquisition stages. Overall, the findings suggest an obsolescence effect in growth that favors younger words. Implications for the second-language lexicon include leveraged learning mechanisms and learning bouts focused on a smaller range of phonological segments, and involve questions concerning lexical processing in aging networks.
