This paper aims to analyze the story of exile and postcolonialism pertaining to one of the characters in Michael Ondaatje’s novel The English Patient – a Hungarian who goes by the name of Count Ladislaus de Almásy. Both Almásy’s storytelling and his book, Herodotus’ Histories, represent his attempts to demystify the past which he cannot, either ontologically or epistemologically speaking, grasp. The only way of “grasping” it is by means of storytelling. Accordingly, the novel is to be analyzed as belonging to the genre of historiographic metafiction, that is, within the context of its metanarrative/metafictional literary devices which serve as a means of constructing the past. Although his solace at first, storytelling eventually becomes a prison of Almásy’s own making as it leaves him both displaced and estranged. He, however, is also cut off from the rest of the novel’s world by being the only character to explicitly defy the boundaries of dominant cultures. As someone who belongs “nowhere”, Almásy is the true embodiment of a postcolonial discourse and a culturally heterogeneous identity.

Published: March 2024

Introduction: The transition from online to face-to-face classes in the Philippines necessitated vaccination against COVID-19 for the students to prevent its transmission. The country has yet to benefit from herd immunity given the Filipinos’ hesitancy to COVID-19 vaccine (CoVax). The objective of the study is to describe the attitude of the undergraduate physical therapy students toward CoVax and determine the correlation between attitude toward CoVax and vaccine hesitancy factors.
Methods: A descriptive-correlational research design was used. A convenience sample of 1st year college freshmen (n = 13) was used in the study. A 5-point Likert scale was used to measure attitude toward CoVax and vaccine hesitancy factors. Pearson correlation was used to determine the correlation between attitude toward CoVax and vaccine hesitancy factors and paired t test to compare change in attitude toward CoVax before and after getting vaccinated.
Results: Majority (62%) of the students expressed a neutral attitude toward CoVax before getting vaccinated. Among all factors, the students rated their confidence (4.31) with CoVax as high but were less confident (3.92) and complacent (3.31) about the vaccine. A negative attitude toward COVAX before vaccination showed a statistically significant relationship with CoVax confidence (r = -.565; n = 13; p = .004). There was a change in the attitude toward CoVax from neutral before vaccination toward acceptance after getting vaccinated; however, the change, .31, 95% CI [-.72-1.33], was not statistically significant t (12) = .652, p = 0.527.
Discussion: Reducing complacency toward and improving confidence in CoVax must be done to improve the attitude of the students toward acceptance of the CoVax.

Introduction: The purpose of Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) is to protect workers from risks and hazards detrimental to their health and safety. The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID19) is currently one of the most significant occupational health outcomes to physical therapists (PTs). However, minimal studies have been conducted on the experiences and OSH practices of PTs during the pandemic. This study, therefore, aims to understand the experiences of clinical PTs in Metro Manila, Philippines during the pandemic and to explore their OSH practices and responses to presenting occupational hazards.
Methods: In this qualitative descriptive study, maximum variation purposeful sampling was used in recruiting 12 participants. Data was gathered through one-to-one semi-structured online interviews, which were transcribed verbatim and recorded with audio and video. Coding was done in Google Sheets during data analysis. Emerging themes were identified using thematic inductive analysis.
Results: After identifying 98 codes through transcripts of the interviews, 3 themes emerged: Period of Uncertainty, Period of Adjustment, and Period of Hopeful Prospect.
Discussion: The Period of Uncertainty describes the time of surges of COVID-19 cases and series of lockdowns with minimal established protocols resulting in the challenges in the delivery of services and to the overall well-being of physical therapists. The Period of Adjustment was initiated by nationwide vaccination programs resulting in strengthening of OSH protocols. The Period of Hopeful Prospect describes the implications of the situation to both the PTs and the profession. The OSH practices of PTs varied with each period as changes occurred to their overall perceptions towards the pandemic and their personal health and safety. Findings can be considered in future formulation of OSH guidelines for potential outbreaks of infectious diseases within the practice of physical therapy.

Published: March 2024

Holacanthus angelfishes are some of the most iconic marine fishes of the Tropical Eastern Pacific (TEP). However, very limited genomic resources currently exist for the genus. In this study we: (i) assembled and annotated the nuclear genome of the King Angelfish (Holacanthus passer), and (ii) examined the demographic history of H. passer in the TEP. We generated 43.8 Gb of ONT and 97.3 Gb Illumina reads representing 75× and 167× coverage, respectively. The final genome assembly size was 583 Mb with a contig N50 of 5.7 Mb, which captured 97.5% of the complete Actinoterygii Benchmarking Universal Single-Copy Orthologs (BUSCOs). Repetitive elements accounted for 5.09% of the genome, and 33,889 protein-coding genes were predicted, of which 22,984 were functionally annotated. Our demographic analysis suggests that population expansions of H. passer occurred prior to the last glacial maximum (LGM) and were more likely shaped by events associated with the closure of the Isthmus of Panama. This result is surprising, given that most rapid population expansions in both freshwater and marine organisms have been reported to occur globally after the LGM. Overall, this annotated genome assembly provides a novel molecular resource to study the evolution of Holacanthus angelfishes, while facilitating research into local adaptation, speciation, and introgression in marine fishes.

Vulneración del principio de no autoincriminación en el procedimiento abreviado contemplado en el código orgánico integral penal
Authors: Ruiz Fajardo Erika Ivanya , Gómez de la Torre Jarrín Gina Lucía
Published: March 2024

La presente investigación tuvo como objetivo realizar un análisis del procedimiento abreviado contemplado en el Código Orgánico Integral Penal (COIP), partiendo del criterio de que ciertos aspectos de este procedimiento vulneran derechos fundamentales del investigado. Se destaca particularmente el requisito para el procesado de admitir los hechos que se le imputan para acceder a este procedimiento, lo cual, según la opinión mayoritaria de doctrinarios, compromete el principio de no autoincriminación, la presunción de inocencia y el derecho a un juicio con todas sus fases. El objetivo de esta investigación fue analizar el procedimiento abreviado establecido en el Código Orgánico Integral Penal (COIP), con el propósito de identificar posibles vulneraciones de derechos fundamentales del investigado. Se buscó específicamente evaluar cómo el requisito de admitir los hechos imputados para acceder a este procedimiento podría afectar principios como el de no autoincriminación y la presunción de inocencia. A través de un enfoque cualitativo y utilizando diferentes métodos de análisis, se procuró determinar si el procedimiento abreviado, tal como está configurado, garantiza un debido proceso conforme a los estándares de derechos humanos y constitucionales. La metodología aplicada se sustentó en un enfoque cualitativo, utilizando los métodos inductivo, analítico, sintético y exegético. Se llevó a cabo un análisis documental de la bibliografía relacionada con el tema investigado, así como de instrumentos internacionales de Derechos Humanos, la Constitución de la República de Ecuador, el COIP y jurisprudencia vinculada a la materia. Los resultados de la investigación determinaron que el procedimiento abreviado tal como se encuentra regulado en el COIP beneficia al Estado y al sistema de justicia al agilizar ciertos procesos legales. Sin embargo, se evidenció que este procedimiento puede vulnerar derechos esenciales del procesado, como el principio de no autoincriminación y la presunción de inocencia. Por lo tanto, se concluye que el procedimiento abreviado afecta el debido proceso al comprometer garantías fundamentales. La investigación señala que el procedimiento abreviado regulado en el COIP, si bien puede ser beneficioso para la eficiencia del sistema de justicia, también conlleva riesgos significativos de vulnerar derechos fundamentales del procesado. Por lo tanto, se destaca la necesidad de revisar y modificar este procedimiento para garantizar el respeto absoluto al debido proceso y a las garantías individuales del investigado.
Falta de disposiciones jurídicas que regulen el aspecto probatorio en materia de tránsito
Authors: Cárdenas Parra Teodoro Javier , Durán Ramírez Andrea Lisseth
Published: March 2024

En el ámbito del derecho procesal penal, particularmente en el contexto del tránsito, existe una carencia de disposiciones legales que regulen el aspecto probatorio para demostrar infracciones por parte de las autoridades competentes. Específicamente, la falta de regulación sobre el uso de fotografías o videos como evidencia dificulta el proceso de aplicación de la ley, ya que ni el COIP ni la LOTTTSV ni sus reglamentos abordan adecuadamente cómo deben obtenerse pruebas mediante medios digitales. Esta laguna normativa plantea interrogantes sobre qué aspectos pueden capturarse en contenido digital, cómo llevar a cabo dicho proceso y qué requisitos deben cumplir los dispositivos utilizados. Ante esta situación, se justifica la necesidad de realizar una investigación exhaustiva para determinar qué aspectos deben incorporarse en la normativa de tránsito con el fin de garantizar un debido proceso. El objetivo principal de esta investigación fue identificar las deficiencias en la regulación del aspecto probatorio en casos de infracciones de tránsito, así como proponer recomendaciones para mejorar el marco normativo existente. Se buscó determinar qué aspectos deben ser incorporados en la normativa de tránsito para garantizar un debido proceso y una aplicación justa de la ley. Para abordar esta problemática, se llevó a cabo una investigación cualitativa con un enfoque descriptivo. Se empleó el método dogmático-jurídico analítico-sintético para analizar en detalle la legislación existente y las lagunas normativas relacionadas con la obtención de pruebas digitales en casos de infracciones de tránsito. Además, se realizaron entrevistas a expertos en derecho procesal penal y se recopiló información de jurisprudencia relevante. Este enfoque metodológico permitió una comprensión profunda de los desafíos y las posibles soluciones en este ámbito. Los resultados de la investigación revelaron importantes lagunas en la regulación del aspecto probatorio en casos de infracciones de tránsito. Se identificaron problemas relacionados con la falta de claridad en los procedimientos de obtención de pruebas digitales y la ausencia de criterios específicos para la admisibilidad de dichas pruebas en los procesos legales. Además, se destacó la necesidad de establecer estándares claros y procedimientos adecuados para garantizar la integridad y fiabilidad de la evidencia digital en el contexto del tránsito. Esta investigación resalta la importancia de abordar las deficiencias en la regulación del aspecto probatorio en casos de infracciones de tránsito. Se recomienda la implementación de medidas específicas para mejorar la recopilación y admisibilidad de pruebas digitales, así como la revisión y actualización de la normativa existente. Esto contribuirá a garantizar un proceso legal justo y transparente en el ámbito del tránsito, fortaleciendo así el Estado de derecho y la confianza en el sistema judicial.

This research aims to evaluate the effectiveness of using private methods in improving students' reading skills at Madrasah Diniyah TPA/TPQ "HIDAYATUSH SHIBYAN". This research uses a systematic and scientific quantitative approach to explore the relationship between the use of private methods and the ability to read iqra'. This research method is included in the exploratory category, with a survey approach carried out in the field. Data was collected through interviews, observation and documentation. The results of the research show that reading mastery is the main focus in the learning process at Madrasah Diniyah TPA/TPQ "HIDAYATUSH SHIBYAN". Even though there is only one teacher teaching in each class, all students receive equal attention and the material is taught with variety to keep students interested. The application of private methods allows more intense interaction between teachers and students, facilitating better understanding of learning material. However, the success of this method depends on the balance between the number of teachers and students and the availability of sufficient time. This research concludes that learning methods that focus on individual interactions between teachers and students, such as private methods, are effective in improving students' reading abilities and comprehension at Madrasah Diniyah TPA/TPQ "HIDAYATUSH SHIBYAN". The research results provide valuable insights for educational practitioners in improving the quality of learning in non-formal educational institutions and confirm the importance of focusing on reading mastery in the educational process.

In this paper, we introduce a new iterative algorithm of inertial form for approximating the common solution of Split Generalized Mixed Equilibrium Problem (SGMEP) and Hierarchical Fixed Point Problem (HFPP) in real Hilbert spaces. Motivated by the subgradient extragradient method, we incorporate the inertial technique to accelerate the convergence of the proposed method. Under standard and mild assumption of monotonicity and lower semicontinuity of the SGMEP and HFPP associated mappings, we establish the strong convergence of the iterative algorithm. Some numerical experiments are presented to illustrate the performance and behaviour of our method as well as comparing it with some related methods in the literature.

Secondary translations of Turkish literary works represent a unique translational chal- lenge, considering that the original text is written in a language that differs significantly in structure from the Indo-European languages, from which these translations are mostly made. By contrasting the Turkish onomastic words with their transcription into Serbian, the prob- lems of the translation appear when translating from a translation. Although in the transla- tion of Turkish works from English and German, the language of the mediator, a considerable number of correctly chosen solutions can be found in the transcription of anthroponyms and toponyms, the analysis carried out shows that the occurring errors are most often due to the nature of the language of the mediator or due to the negligence of the translator. This situation supports translators’ opinion that translating from a translation should be used only when direct translation is not possible.

Published: March 2024

Higher education in Indonesia, including at Budi Darma University, continues to be committed to creating an inclusive and equitable learning environment for all students. In line with this determination, Budi Darma University is implementing the Single Tuition Assistance (BUKT) program to support educational accessibility. Obstacles in the selection process, which is subjective and lacks a structured framework, can lead to inequality in the distribution of aid. This can result in students who should receive greater support being overlooked, while those who may need less may receive greater aid. In the BUKT selection process, there are a number of requirements that must be met, such as parents' income, PKH card ownership, completeness of documents, parents' dependents and home ownership. It is hoped that the use of a decision support system can be a solution to overcome this challenge. Decision Support Systems (DSS) integrate computer technology, mathematical models, and data to provide structured and organized support within a decision-making framework. The Simple Additive Weighting (SAW) method is a multi-criteria decision making method that allows relative weighing between criteria to determine the final score for each alternative. By applying SAW in the selection of BUKT recipient students, it is hoped that more objective and data-based decisions can be obtained. The research results produced the best alternative with a value of 100.00 in the alternative with code A5 in Fitri's name, so that Fitri was declared entitled to receive single tuition assistance.

Published: March 2024

Abstract

This article examines Brazilian Navy personnel's psychological and behavioral characteristics in the context of credit risk, the consigned credit, utilizing multiple linear regressions and correspondence analyses. Incorporating personality traits through the Big Five model, the research considers various sociodemographic and military characteristics. The payroll-deductible loan sample comprises individuals with high financial planning and above-average or high-risk tolerance. This research contributes novel insights by integrating personality traits as determinants of military indebtedness, financial planning, and risk tolerance. The study reveals that the personality trait "openness to experience" positively impacts financial planning, indicating a tendency toward financial discipline. Women, older individuals, and those with less service time exhibit a riskier financial profile. The research identifies a lack of basic financial knowledge among indebted military personnel, underscoring the need for interventions to address this issue. Financial planning and risk tolerance are critical factors influencing decisions, reflecting broader societal challenges of increasing indebtedness and financial illiteracy.

Authors: López Mónica , Sifuentes Ana , Paredes Francisco , Maldonado Nicolás , Gill Homar
Published: March 2024

Lipoxygenase enzymes encoded by the Lox1, Lox2 and Lox3 genes play a crucial role in soybean grain, particularly in the development of off-flavors. Understanding molecular variation within Lox genes is essential for the improvement of soybean organoleptic traits. This study investigated the genetic variation in the internal regions of the Lox1, Lox2, and Lox3 genes in mature grain of commercially grown soybean cultivars in Mexico. Genomic DNA from a diverse panel of Mexican soybean cultivars was analyzed using resequencing techniques and in-silico analysis. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) within the Lox1, Lox2, and Lox3 genes were identified and characterized. The findings indicated that Lox3 gene displayed lower genetic variability compared to Lox1 and Lox2 genes, specifically, was identified a total of 26 SNPs in the Lox1 gene, 11 SNPs in the Lox2 gene, and 5 SNPs in the Lox3 gene among the examined cultivars. A non-synonymous SNP variant of the C/C genotype located in exon 6 of the Lox2 gene was associated with a destabilizing effect on the lipoxygenase 2 enzyme in the Guayparime S-10 and Huasteca 300 cultivars. These findings provide insights into the molecular variation of lipoxygenase-associated genes in Mexican soybean cultivars.
A Review paper on seismic response of various slab systems with and without lateral load resisting systems
Authors: Deep Gopal Rathod  , Dr. Ajay radke
Published: March 2024

With the ongoing modern trends of the construction industry, slab systems like flat slab and post tensioned slabs are widely used in the construction. Flat and post tensioned slab are widely favored by architects and clients for aesthetic reasons. They also do possess a huge advantage structurally over conventional slab arrangement such as Less depth of the slab is required , increasing the floor-to-floor height , longer spans are possible , no beam projections , reduced self-weight of the building and many more. But it comes with its own disadvantages as well such as Brittle punching (shear) failure. Which requires additional reinforcement along the connections of column and slab. Which increases the longitudinal steel required. Slab – column connections are the first point of yielding in higher seismic zones with buildings without lateral load resisting system (LLRS). In higher seismic zones the slabs can resist only the gravity loads and can’t resist the lateral dynamic loading and hence may require additional lateral load resisting system (LLRS) to resist lateral loads such as seismic and wind loads. Thus it becomes essential to study the seismic behavior of conventional slab , flat slab and post tensioned slab systems in high rise RCC structure with and without various LLRS ( lateral load resisting system).This study is aimed to study various literatures related to effects of lateral loads on flat and post tensioned slab system and different LLRS (lateral load resisting system) to make the structure more resistant and economical against such lateral loads considering parameters like story displacement , base shear , stiffness of the connections and time period.

The phrase Social Media refers to a group of websites and applications that emphasize collaboration, content sharing, community-based feedback, communication, and engagement. Social media is used by people to engage in and maintain relationships with friends, family, and other groups. Companies utilize social media platforms to track client complaints and market and promote their products. People generate stuff, share it, and network at a prodigious rate on social media, which has grown to be a genre of online conversation. It can be said that the usage and impact of social media platforms are rising continuously. Further, the purpose of using these platforms is not only for entertainment but also as a knowledge tool. This study was an attempt to analyse how the social media can be used to enhance knowledge and skill by the youth in present day.  However it is observed still there is small ratio of youth who exceptionally under the influence of social media.  Apart from this the study proves that the myths of social media towards addiction and distraction among the youth, even helps in their career building through the skills and knowledge they learn on this platform.
From Crude Oil to Electricity: Examining the Shift in Indian Consumer Preferences and Behaviour Towards Electric Vehicles
Authors: Aryan Gupta
Published: March 2024

The Industrial Revolution spurred mass production, making petrol vehicles affordable and accessible. The government invested in infrastructure to accommodate their widespread use, but environmental concerns arose. Efforts to address these led to the promotion of alternatives like CNG vehicles, with incentives driving their adoption. Despite emitting fewer greenhouse gases than gasoline vehicles, CNG still poses environmental challenges. Electric vehicles, emitting zero tailpipe emissions, offer superior ecological benefits. Electric vehicles (EVs) are one of the near-term practical solutions to vehicle technology providing solutions to growing concerns over environmental sustainability. The acceptance of a new product is always difficult in a market having people who are so traditionally driven and laggards. This paper aims to analyze the preferences through questionnaires learning various factors driving consumers' purchase decisions. The paper also discusses the importance of charging infrastructure in influencing customer’s product choices. To what extent has India inculcated ‘Aatmanirbhar Bharat’ in the brains of Indians that could drive consumers to delve into Indian-manufactured or foreign-manufactured EVs? Through the survey of 80+ vehicle consumers, the paper scrutinizes the customer’s ideal price point for both EV 2-wheelers and 4-wheelers to help manufacturers make pricing decisions. Lastly, we enquire about consumers’ optimism towards EV adoption in the future. The paper concludes that 71.6% of people desire to switch to EVs because of environmental concerns, 58% because of cost savings on fuel, and less emission of greenhouse gases. The data results show that customers' non-purchase decision is influenced by a lack of undeveloped charging infrastructure, lack of awareness of government incentives, high maintenance costs, uncertainty about the reliability of the technology, and higher prices of EVs as compared to petrol and diesel vehicles. Also, 81.5% of people expressed their view to have automobiles manufactured in India from the opposing belief that foreign manufactured goods have a superior quality. More than 60% of the market is optimistic towards electric vehicles (EVs) dominating the automotive sector in India within the next five years.

Job mobility, affected by growth prospects and alignment with AI-driven workplaces, sheds light on career aspirations within digital marketing. This study addresses a significant knowledge gap regarding how employees envision the future of work and how this perspective influences their job-related behaviors. To bridge this gap, we conducted a study involving 303 employees in the digital marketing industry in India. Through structural equation modeling, we discovered that AI technology disruption influences employees' turnover intention, with job insecurity playing a mediating role. Additionally, our analysis revealed that mistreatment by superiors increases turnover intention, highlighting its impact on employees' decisions. Overall, this research unveils the profound impact of AI technology disruption in the digital marketing industry on employees' attitudes, behaviors, and future career decisions, providing essential insights into how employees perceive AI technology, particularly concerning job security and their engagement in the digital marketing sector.

Published: March 2024

The Adivasis are categorized as the Scheduled Tribes in the Constitution of India. Adivasis consist of 26% of the total population of State of Jharkhand. 78% of the total Adivasi population lives in the rural areas of the State. At least half of the rural population of the Adivasi lives below the poverty line. The Adivasis of Jharkhand are enslaved in the poverty trap. The per-capita income of the Adivasi community is very low. The majority of the Adivasi youth of the state are poorly equipped for employment in the labour market. Most of the Adivasi youth are neither adequately educated nor equipped with vocation skills. They are unable to succeed in finding productive employment which increases their per capita income and helps them to escape from the poverty trap.  In this context the paper tries to study the roles of vocational education in the economic empowerment of the Adivasis of Jharkhand. Vocational education can equip the Adivasis with skills, especially the Adivasi youth, for self-employment and employment in labor market. It can trigger economic change and transformation in the Adivasi community in Jharkhand.

Authors: Korneev Sergey A.
Published: March 2024

The subject of this study is ensuring the rights and legitimate interests of the victim upon termination of a criminal case and criminal prosecution with the imposition of a court fine (Article 76 .2 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation). Analysis of the current criminal legislation, Decisions of the Plenum of the Supreme Court, materials of investigative and judicial practice, as well as doctrinal studies concerning the issue being sought and presented on the pages of legal publications, allowed us to state the lack of a uniform understanding of taking into account the position of the victim when deciding on the release of a person from criminal liability on the basis of the provisions of the Criminal Procedure Code (Article 25 .1 of the Code of Criminal Procedure of the Russian Federation) and the criminal legislation of the Russian Federation (Article 76 .2 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation). The results of the conducted research allowed us to conclude that the presence of an individual whose rights and legitimate interests were violated as a result of a criminal encroachment, having the status of a victim of a crime, should be an important legal fact taken into account by investigative and judicial authorities when considering criminal cases. Opinion of such person (objection or consent) regarding the termination of the criminal case and criminal prosecution in general and with the appointment of a material payment to the state’s income (art . 762 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation), in particular, is of decisive importance for law enforcement agencies.
