The purpose of this research was to explore the comparison of diversity and diversity index of ground insects in the Cikaweni and Canopy PPKA Bodogol,  Sukabumi. The method used in this research is line transect by making a 500 m long transect line and divided into 10 plots. Each plot measures 2.5m x 2.5m, with a distance between plots of 50 m. Data processing was carried out using the Shannon-Wiener index, Eveness and similarity index. The results we got in this study found 33 individuals from 23 species of ground insects. In the Cikaweni track, the diversity value is 2.31 and the evenness index is 0.89, while in the canopy track the diversity value is 2.14 and the evenness index value is 0.93. These results indicate that both pathways belong to the moderate category without any dominating species. While the similarity index of the two tracks was 19% with only 3 species found in both tracks, namely Acheta sp., Blattella sp., and Euborellia annulipes, which means that both tracks have a low level of similarity.

Künstliche Intelligenz in der Medizin? Intersektionale queerfeministische Kritik und Orientierung
Authors: Baumgartner Renate , Ernst Waltraud
Published: May 2023

Algorithmen werden als zentrale Akteure der digitalen Transformation gehandelt. Künstliche Intelligenz (KI) wird als Lösung für dringende aktuelle und zukünftige Probleme in der Medizin gerahmt. Der Beitrag geht der Frage nach, wie – oft unbewusst – faktisch diskriminierende Werte sozialer Ordnung in Algorithmen eingeschrieben werden und der weithin beklagte Gender Bias sowie rassistische Diskriminierung fortgeschrieben oder sogar verstärkt wird. Es wird erörtert, wie eine mit KI verbundene Automatisierung von Diskriminierung Ansprüche an ein gleichberechtigtes Zusammenleben vielfältiger und widersprüchlicher menschlicher Existenz erneut breit diskutierbar macht. Im Beitrag werden diese Fragen anhand des Einsatzes von KI bei der Hautkrebs- und der Brustkrebsdiagnose erörtert. Diese werden mit theoretischen und methodischen Zugängen aus der Genderforschung, die sozialen Konstruktivismus, Poststrukturalismus und New Materialism mit Ansätzen der Intersektionalitätsforschung und der Queer Theory verbinden, konfrontiert.
Die Braut mit der Axt. Zum ambivalenten Spiel mit dem kunsthistorischen Kanon in der russischen feministischen Gegenwartskunst
Authors: Kunkel Ilona
Published: May 2023

Die russische feministische Kunstszene wächst stetig, und weist eine große Heterogenität auf. Dennoch sind nur wenige Akteur*innen international bekannt. Die vorliegende Untersuchung begegnet diesem Problem und setzt sich zum Ziel, eine Strömung innerhalb dieser Szene für den internationalen feministischen Diskurs zu erschließen: Im Fokus stehen Arbeiten, die sich auf subtile und kulturspezifische Art mit traditioneller russischer Femininität auseinandersetzen. Diese Arbeiten inszenieren ein ambivalentes Spiel, das in der Imitation und Irritation des visuellen Kanons besteht. Vorliegend wird dieses künstlerische Spiel als Strategie des Active Self-Othering beschrieben und am Beispiel des Brautmotivs diskutiert. Dabei wird die ikonografisch/ikonologische Methode nach Panofsky hinzugezogen und um die Ikonologie des Performativen nach Wulf und Zirfas erweitert. Die Falluntersuchung verdeutlicht das Potenzial des Active Self-Othering für die feministische Kunst in konservativen und/oder autoritären Gesellschaften. Durch subtile Brüche mit der ikonografischen Tradition erweitern die Künstler*innen das visuelle Repertoire des Femininen.
Empoderamiento de las mujeres en el sector café en Honduras
Authors: Accerenzi Michela , Duke Katia
Published: May 2023

Una estrategia de empoderamiento debe provocar cambios en las estructuras sociales y las relaciones de poder. El grado de empoderamiento depende, además, de la combinación de agencia y estructura de oportunidades, donde son elementos centrales el acceso y control de los recursos, la capacidad de tomar decisiones y los resultados finales. Por tanto, el empoderamiento incluye tanto el cambio individual como la acción colectiva, e implica la alteración radical de los procesos y estructuras que reproducen la posición subordinada de las mujeres como género.

El café representa el mayor producto agrícola de Honduras. Sin embargo, las mujeres no disfrutan igual acceso a recursos, ni tienen la misma voz en las decisiones, llevando, además, una carga desproporcionada de roles dentro y fuera del hogar.

El presente artículo analiza las barreras y oportunidades del sector cafetalero hondureño para el empoderamiento de las mujeres, utilizando un enfoque etnográfico.

EVALUATION ON THE ACTIVITY AND EFFICACY OF OMNIPRENE 20CS AGAINST AEDES, ANOPHELES AND CULEX MOSQUITOES IN OUTDOOR MICROCOSMS
Authors: Su Tianyun , Su Heng
Published: May 2023

Mosquito control by pesticides remains the main intervention to reduce the burden of mosquito nuisance and mosquito-borne diseases. In mosquito control, larviciding by application of environmentally friendly larvicides has been one of the routine operations. Larvicides based on microbial agents and insect growth regulators (IGRs) account for most of the available products. Ones that are formulated using S-methoprene ranged from microencapsulated concentrate (or capsule suspension - CS), various granules, and pellets to briquets for different habitats. The CS formulation has been among the traditional products based on S-methoprene due to its advantages of easy application, fast action, and even area coverage. The current paper evaluated a newly developed CS formulation OmniPrene 20CSTM containing 20% S-methoprene against mosquitoes of public health importance. High inhibition of emergence activity was indicated against the test species, and Aedes and Anopheles mosquitoes showed higher susceptibility than Culex in laboratory bioassays. The performance under field conditions exceeded the label specification of the currently available products with the same application pattern. Over the 21-day evaluation period, the control levels ranged 86.4-100%, 89.8-100% and 79.8-100% against Aedes aegypti, Anopheles hermsi and Culex quinquefasciatus respectively when it was applied at the intended label dose of 54.8-73.1 mL/ha. This product is expected to be used as one of the viable tools along with other available products to combat mosquitoes of public health concerns.
CO-OCCURRENCE OF MOSQUITO COMMUNITIES IN DISTURBED ENVIRONMENTS USING MARKOV RANDOM FIELDS (MRFs) IN ST. JOHNS COUNTY, FLORIDA
Authors: Qualls Whitney , Steck Madeline , Xue Rui-De , Sallam Mohamed
Published: May 2023

The distribution of mosquito communities is predicted by complex micro- and macrohabitat systems. While macrohabitat variables are significant in modeling the distribution of individual mosquito species, the distribution of mosquito communities in disturbed urban and semi-urban environmental gradients was overlooked in most of the previous models. In our study, we used conditional Markov Random Fields (CRF) to evaluate spatial co-occurrence patterns between mosquito vectors of eastern equine encephalitis (EEEV) and west Nile virus (WNV) in a disturbed urban environment in Saint John’s County, Florida. We aimed to 1) quantify the strength and direction of spatial unconditional and conditional correlations between mosquito assemblages in disturbed environments, and 2) evaluate whether the strength of correlations between mosquito assemblages is conditional on landscape or climate variables. We leveraged the longitudinal surveillance effort using Biogents sentinel traps (BGS) conducted by Anastasia Mosquito Control Districts in disturbed urban environments during 2017-2020. The distribution of high mosquito abundance, especially Aedes albopictus, Ae. aegypti, Ae. vexans, Ae. taeniorhynchus, Culex nigripalpus, Cx. salinarius, and Cx. quinquefasciatus, were conditionally correlated with other EEEV and WNV vector species in reduced woody and herbaceous wetlands and evergreen forests (-54.44%), and in urban developed landscapes (3.44%) during 2019 and 2020. Moreover, conditional correlations between mosquito species pairs were positively associated with increased total precipitation and in areas with high average minimum and maximum temperatures. Our results show that the micro- and macrohabitat characteristics demonstrated spatial effects on distribution and correlations between species pairs of EEEV and WNV mosquito vectors across disturbed environments. Our findings could be used to better understand the joint effects of drivers on mosquito diversity at a specific locality, interspecific interactions among mosquito assemblages, and how this diversity changes across environmental gradients.
FIELD EVALUATION OF LURES AS CANDIDATE ATTRACTANTS FOR COASTAL CULICOIDES IN FLORIDA
Authors: Lloyd Aaron , Kline Daniel , Hahn Daniel
Published: May 2023

Biting midges (Diptera: Ceratopogonidae: Culicoides) along the coast of Florida are a severe biting nuisance that can impede outdoor activities. Methods currently available for biting midge control are limited due to environmentally sensitive larval habitats and the lack of adulticide techniques available for area-wide population suppression.Homeowners that live along the coast can protect their homes with the use of fine- meshed window screens and fans, coarse low volume adulticide applications, and adult removal via commercial mosquito traps. There are known attractants that have been used to enhance trap captures for adult mosquitoes, and it is logical to test these attractants against closely related adult hematophagous Diptera such as Culicoides. This study compared four attractant lures, octenol, BG lure, R-octenol, and USDA red blend, known to be attractive to mosquitoes, and tested them against C. furens and C. mississippiensis as an addition to increase trap capture. Although all attractants increased trap capture above the control, results from this study could not identify a lure that was significantly more attractive to Culicoides species captured in Cedar Key, Florida. Further studies evaluating species specific trap types as well as attractants are needed to develop an effective Culicoides adult trapping control system as part of an integrated biting insect control program.

Published: May 2023

Synthetic acaricides have been the most used method for controlling tick populations. However, their frequent application has had negative impacts on treated animals and the environment and led to the development of resistance in tick populations. These factors generated interest and the need to find more environmentally friendly alternatives. In this study, the repellency and acaricidal effects of BigShot Maxim (AIs: cedarwood oil, cinnamon oil, thyme oil), RepelCare (AIs: turmeric oil and eucalyptus oil), and clove oil, Syzygium aromaticum L., were tested against the lone star tick, Amblyomma Americanum (Linnaeus). Despite no evidence of repellency for BigShot Maxim, RepelCare and clove oil, its disruption of the host seeking behavior after contact to the products was observed and further investigated. BigShot Maxim and clove oil were selected for mortality testing and resulted in complete mortality of male, female ticks, and nymphs with some application rates. The results from this study provide a better understanding of repellency and acaricidal effects of botanical products against the lone star tick that can be used to further improve the development of green chemistry. However, further studies are warranted before these botanical products can be implemented as effective alternatives to chemical acaricides to use in integrated vector control.
ADULTICIDAL AND LARVICIDAL IMPACTS OF THE MIXTURE OF BACILLUS THURINGIENSIS ISRAELENSIS AND BORIC ACID TOXIC SUGAR BAIT (TSB) AGAINST AEDES AEGYPTI AND CULEX QUINQUEFASCIATUS
Authors: BALLANTYNE TAYLOR , ARYAPREMA VINDHYA , XUE RUI-DE , QUALLS WHITNEY
Published: May 2023

Toxic sugar baits (TSBs) can be used to deliver insecticide material via ingestion instead of via contact through spraying of insecticides by targeting the resting and sugar-feeding behaviors of adult mosquitoes. This semi-field study aimed to evaluate the adulticidal and larvicidal dual action of a foliage spray of a TSB with a mixture of Bacillus thuringiensis israelensis (Bti), and boric acid against Aedes aegypti Puerto Rico (PR) strain (resistant) and Orlando (OR) strain (susceptible), and laboratory colony of Culex quinquefasciatus (Gainesville 1995 strain). The larval and adult evaluation of TSB consisted of 11% VectoBac (Valent Biosciences, Libertyville, IL; Bti), 5% boric acid, and 10% sucrose solution. The TSB intervention for adults consisted of the same as the larval intervention but had an addition of a food grade, 5g Blue No. 1 dye (Sigma Aldrich; St. Louis MO) to observe adult feeding. The controls received a 10% sucrose solution. For the larval mortality evaluation, the TSB was applied to the bromeliad with the runoff dripping into pans containing mosquito larvae. At 24 hours post-application, 100% larval mortality was observed. At all-time mortality recordings, 50 larvae were introduced into the larval pans and the bromeliads were sprayed with water to mimic rainfall allowing the remaining TSB to be washed off into the larval pans. After the 4th day of larval introductions, larval mortality was 83.5% ± 14.3 for Ae. aegypti_PR, 92.5% ± 6.1 for Ae. aegypti OR, and 97 % ±1.7 for Cx. quinquefasciatus. Total mean mortality at 72 hours post exposure for the adult TSB evaluation was 52.7% ± 24.2 for Ae. aegypti_PR, 34.3% ± 26.5 for Ae. aegypti_OR, and 73.7% ± 13.9 for Cx. quinquefasciatus. Our study suggests this TSB including Bti is effective against larvae when applied as an adulticide barrier application and could be a dual-action approach to mosquito control.

Data Warehousing and Decision Making in Higher Education in the United States
Authors:   ,   Andrews University, Heise David
Published: May 2023

Problem. Compared to the business world, higher education has a lower level of acceptance and a lower rate of adoption of data warehousing for decision making. Studies into the way data warehouses are used in higher education and the extent to which they are used are hard to find. Accordingly, this research examines the use of data warehousing in higher education and its role in decision making. Method. Internet survey research method was used in this study. I asked college and university presidents to provide me with contact details of senior decision makers and technology managers from their institutions. A web-based survey was developed which was then emailed to the 1,438 potential respondents obtained from the presidents. From this sample, 290 completed the survey. Most of the analysis is performed using descriptive statistics. Results. The mean value from 202 responses for extent of use of data warehousing across all levels of management and all subject areas of interest in higher education was 3.02 on a scale of 1 to 5 (1 is low use, 5 is high use). Operational use (3.15) scored higher than tactical (3.05) or strategic use (2.86). Areas of interest making the greatest use of data warehousing were Enrollment (3.64), Student Information (3.50), and Financial Budgeting (3.49). Data warehousing is considered to be important to decision making. Data quality and resourcing were identified as implementation challenges. Better, faster, fact-driven decision making featured in questions about benefits and project objectives. Two thirds of data warehousing projects have completion dates (actual or planned) post 2(X)1. Conclusions. Data warehousing is not used extensively in higher education, although it is regarded as important to decision making. In many institutions, it is still in the emerging or developing stage. Data warehousing is used more for day-to-day operational purposes than for tactical or strategic purposes, except in the financial area where the difference between management levels is not significant.
Narratives of Adolescent Students: the Integration of Health and Learning Through Application of Nursing Theory
Authors:   ,   Andrews University, Huber Marjean
Published: May 2023

Problem. There are few resources to show educators how to help students improve learning by improving health and mental well-being. There is a lack of integration in the literature in terms of how practitioners can reach these students in order to help them learn effectively and develop into successful, productive adults with meaningful lives. This study has three major sections. First, I examine my experiences within education to determine what values, truths, and principles mold my practice. Second, I identify my teaching practice in relationship to nursing theory integrating it with learning theory, thus highlighting the relationship between the health and learning of students. And third, I analyze and discuss my experiences to develop an emerging theory that can be shared with others in the fields ofeducation and nursing. Method. Using a narrative autobiographical approach, I reflected upon my experiences with students, evaluated comments by students, parents, colleagues, my husband, and assessed informal conversations with colleagues. I examined my teaching practice based on nursing theory as it relates to individual adolescent learners. I wrote stories using my journals. I also presented data using stories, poems, metaphor, concept maps, and graphs. Results. After analyzing my teaching practice, three predominant themes emerged from my practice as a nurse---caring, compassion, and student advocacy---that are applicable to the practice of teaching and connect the relationship between the health and learning experience of students. Caring provides opportunities for role modeling, dialoguing, reflection, connection, and community. Compassion requires recognition of self-involvement with students and the knowledge of the nature of life itself with all its twists and turns in order to deal with student suffering. Student advocacy requires entering into supporting, trusting, and flexible relationships with students. Together these three themes demonstrate my practice and lead to my emerging theory of Teacher Becoming. Conclusions. Since my practice is based on my emerging Theory of Teacher Becoming, I am challenged to connect the relationship of health and well-being with learning effectiveness of adolescent students and to emphasize the human perspective. Therefore, this bridges the lack of integration between health and learning so that educators can have the benefit of my nursing practice in teaching as a result of this research study. As I progress and cultivate my practice, the Theory of Teacher Becoming will be continually tested and continue to evolve.
The Contribution of Education, Experience, and Personal Characteristics on the Reflective Judgment of Students Preparing for School Administration
Authors:   ,   Andrews University, MacDonald Margaret
Published: May 2023

Problem. School administrators must use high levels of reasoning to deal with the complexities of today's educational system. Reflective thinking has proven to be an effective administrative tool in problem solving, staff supervision, and school improvement, yet preparation programs for school administrators have limited knowledge about what contributes to reflective judgment in their students, thus making it difficult to develop curriculum and pedagogy to enhance reflection. Method. The Reflective Judgment Model provides the theoretical framework for this mixed methods research design that explores contributory variables that contribute to the reflective judgment of educational leadership students. The Reasoning about Current Issues Test measured reflective judgment, and the Experience and Background Inventory and Demographic Information Form measured experiential, educational, and personal characteristics of 128 educational leadership students. Two linear regression models determined the variables that contributed to the students' reflective judgment. Data were analyzed for reflective judgment level, and contributory variables were determined using two linear regressions. A semi-structured focus group of five high-scoring reflective thinkers provided information on what they believed contributed to their reflective judgment. Results. Reflective judgment levels ranged from pre-reflective to reflective with a mean level score of quasi-reflective. Six variables contributed to reflective judgment, accounting for 14% to 20% of the variability in reflective judgment. Internship and curriculum development class had a positive effect, while school achievement and number of educational leadership courses had a negative effect. Age positively effected reflective judgment, while aspiration level had a negative effect. Focus group studentsindicated that knowledge of multiple perspectives, influence of others, prior experiences, personal attributes, and social dynamics contributed to their reflective judgment. Conclusions. In the preparation of school administrators, educational leadership programs can enhance students' reasoning by providing a combination of experiences throughout their course of studies that offer opportunities to develop multiple perspectives, deal with "real life" issues, and be exposed to reflective role models through activities such as curriculum development and mentor-supported internships. The wide range of reflective judgment levels and lack of reflective thinking in the majority of the students indicates that it is important for educational leadership faculty to know about the development, assessment, and instruction of reflective judgment in order to more effectively move students to the reflective thinking level.
Paul's Use of Canonical and Noncanonical Wisdom Literature in Romans and the Corinthian Letters
Authors:   ,   Andrews University, Ino Tadashi
Published: May 2023

Problem . Although Paul's use of wisdom literature has been widely acknowledged, the relationship between the apostle and wisdom literature has not been thoroughly investigated. Scholars have tended to deal mainly with the function of wisdom traditions in general in Paul's argument. Furthermore, no one has compared his use of canonical and noncanonical wisdom literature. This present study sought to determine the nature of Paul's use of wisdom literature by comparing his use of canonical wisdom books (Job, Proverbs, and Ecclesiastes) with his use of noncanonical ones (Sirach and the Wisdom of Solomon) in Romans, and 1 and 2 Corinthians. Method . The present study adopted the intertextual approach, which detects components of the wisdom books in Paul's letters and examines the significance of the use in the Pauline context. In order to make objective judgments, after numerous criteria were suggested and examined, the appropriate criteria were applied to Paul's texts. Results . This study found eighteen most likely or probable cases of Paul's use of the wisdom literature and seven significant parallels between Paul's texts and the wisdom-book passages. Numerous similarities are shared between Paul's use of canonical and noncanonical wisdom literature. This suggests that Paul did not have any bias toward canonical or against noncanonical wisdom literature. Conclusion . This study demonstrated that Paul considered both canonical and noncanonical wisdom literature as authoritative sources for his ministry, and that this literature deeply influenced Paul's thoughts and composition.

Deaf and hard of hearing people communicate with others and within their own communities by using sign language. Computer recognition of sign language begins with the learning of sign gestures and continues through the production of text and speech. There are two types of sign gestures: static and dynamic. Both gesture recognition systems are crucial to the human community, even if static gesture recognition is easier than dynamic gesture recognition. We have conducted research on the steps required to convert static American sign language (ASL) to readable text and selected the best available methods to do so. Examined general steps are the data collection, pre-processing, transformation, feature extraction, and classification. There are also some recommendations for further study in this field.

Published: May 2023

Now a day, one of the most common diseases is a brain tumor. The challenge is to identify a tumor at an early stage, which is essential to receiving good care and surviving brain cancer patients. In the human body, the uncontrolled growth of cells is called a brain tumor. They have different types and characteristics and have different treatments. Medical imaging techniques play an important role in the detection of brain tumors. Although MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) is frequently regarded as the best method for identifying this type of tumor, it has several drawbacks, and MRI images are more sensitive to ambient noise and other disruptions. As a result, it is challenging for doctors to identify the tumor and its origin.
Data Mining Tools for Generate Item Set : Critical Review
Authors: S V Subramanyam
Published: May 2023

Most algorithms used to identify large itemsets can be classified as either sequential or parallel. In most cases, it is assumed that the itemsets are identified and stored in lexicographic order (based on item name). This ordering provides a logical manner in which itemsets can be generated and counted. This is the normal approach with sequential algorithms. On the other hand, parallel algorithms focus on how to parallelize the task of finding large itemsets. Mining Associations is one of the techniques involved in the process mentioned in chapter 1 and among the data mining problems it might be the most studied ones. Discovering association rules is at the heart of data mining. Mining for association rules between items in large database of sales transactions has been recognized as an important area of database research. These rules can be effectively used to uncover unknown relationships, producing results that can provide a basis for forecasting and decision making. Today, research work on association rules is motivated by an extensive range of application areas, such as banking, manufacturing, health care, and telecommunications. It is also used for building statistical thesaurus from the text databases, finding web access patterns from web log files, and also discovering associated images from huge sized image databases.

In this paper, a novel information retrieval and text summarization model based on deep learning (DL) is introduced. The model comprises three primary stages, including information retrieval, template generation, and text summarization. The initial step involves utilizing a bidirectional long short term memory (BiLSTM) technique to retrieve textual data. This approach considers each word in a sentence, extracts relevant information, and converts it into a semantic vector.
A Review on Phishing Website Detection Using Machine Learning Approach
Authors: Nikita Pawar  , Dr. P. A. Tijare
Published: May 2023

Phishing attacks are a rapidly growing threat in the cyber world. Every person is truly dependent on the internet. Everyone is doing online purchasing and online activities like online banking, online booking, and online billing on the internet. Phishing is a type of threat on a website and phishing is the illegal use of real information on the website information such as login id, password, information of credit card. Phishers use websites that visually and semantically resemble real websites. How can someone tell the difference between a website that is a phishing website and a real website? The identification of a website as a phishing website depends on several factors such as URL length, including the special letter '@', double slash redirect, and the existence of subdomains. Although the above factors are present on the website, no one can claim that the website is a phishing website, it can also be an original website. For solving this type of problem we can use the machine learning algorithm. The review creates phishing attack alerts, detects the attack, and motivate readers to use phishing prevention. With a large number of phishing emails or messages coming today, it is for businesses or individuals impossible to find them.

Today, data is one of the most important assets for nearly every sector of industry. Advances in information technology and widespread growth in various fields such as business, engineering, medicine, and scientific research have resulted in an explosion of data. This data explosion presents new challenges that traditional methods cannot handle. One of the biggest concerns of our time concerns the security and protection of sensitive information. In today's Big Data era, where organizations collect, analyse, and make decisions based on analysis of massive datasets from various sources, security in this process becomes more and more important. At the same time, more and more organizations need to enforce access controls and privacy restrictions on these records to meet regulatory requirements such as HIPAA and other privacy laws. Network security breaches by internal and external attackers are on the rise, often taking months to discover, and those affected pay the price. Organizations that fail to properly control access to records face lawsuits, negative publicity, and fines.
