Authors: Ma arif Faqih , Widodo Slamet , Nugroho Maris Setyo , Gao Zhengguo
Published: May 2023

Concrete is a material that is widely used in construction. Concrete research efforts are ongoing and through a series of experimental tests. On the other hand, experimental tests require a lot of money, take a long time, and create waste. Several studies have revealed that numerical testing can accurately test concrete to fractures. However, modeling for the four-point load flexure test pattern is still not widely discussed. This study aimed to model the four-point flexural test of concrete using the discrete element method (DEM) approach. Sieve gradation was performed to determine particle size, and flexure testing was performed to calibrate the DEM model. DEM flexure testing was made using Yet Another Dynamic Engine (YADE) software with ASTM D6272 reference and beam dimensions 105 x 105 x 535 mm. The cohesive contact model with spherical particles is used, and the algorithm developed modifies the faceted sphere of interaction. The study results revealed that DEM can simulate crack behavior in flexural testing of unreinforced concrete. The DEM results show only a 2.13% difference in the experimental results of the flexural strength test. Meanwhile, crack behavior can be observed directly in the DEM simulation. The results of this study can be used to predict the failure pattern of the flexural test structure and to design the right proportion of the mixture to match the desired flexural strength. So that material efficiency and concrete flexure testing time can be achieved.

Culture-based traditional food experience (gastronomy) has become an exciting topic for tourists worldwide. This is because gastronomic tourism offers a new alternative to a tourist destination. Until now, studies that discuss how the intentions of Vietnamese and Indonesian tourists to choose traditional food for their tourism activities are still limited. Therefore, this study aims to explore the antecedent factors that shape the intention of tourists to choose traditional food as a reason for tourism activities using the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) approach. This study involved 345 Vietnamese and Indonesian tourists in providing information on the antecedent factors that shape the intention to choose traditional food. Data were analyzed using structural equation modeling (SEM). The results of the study reveal that the attitude toward consuming traditional food and perceived control towards consuming traditional food influence the intention of tourists to choose gastronomy as the reason for their tourism activities. However, subjective norms towards consuming traditional food have not been able to influence tourists' intention to choose traditional food for travel. These findings provide important implications for the government and tourism practitioners to develop gastronomic tourism as a new alternative. In addition, various gastronomic tourism promotion programs consider tourist behavior need to be carried out.

In our current modern world, it can be said that it is very difficult to live a balanced and healthy life, and to always perform well in the world of work, so it is very important to pay attention to our leisure time and our primary prevention activities, which can help preserve our health and improve our fitness. The purpose of the research is to examine the appearance of leisure tourist trips among employees, and how tourist trips appear among the primary prevention tools. Our research found answers to the main questions of what activities employees try to regain their ability to work, and whether trips are popular as primary prevention activities. The recreational activities of the employees are primarily filled by various obligations, but at the same time, the use of primary prevention activities is pushed into the background during everyday life. During the research, we established that medical and wellness holidays are very popular among the respondents, as 22.5% of the sample (133 people) take part in medical tourism holidays and 50.3% of the respondents (297 people) take part in health care on a focused wellness holiday. The quiet, calm environment and the closeness to nature, which helps the employees to regenerate, appeared prominently in the motivation for the choice of destination. Among primary prevention tools, leisure activities spent with family, relationships, and friends, healthy eating, and walking and nature walks are the ones that appear dominantly in the everyday life of employees. In order to reduce the problem of burnout, pressure to perform, and stress among employees and to enable them to perform well in their tasks, it is very important to assess their needs and provide them with programs that contribute to improving their health and regaining their ability to work, such as appropriate recreation programs and various trips.

A density 3D model was constructed, which made it possible to identify inhomogeneities in the western Priokhotye lithosphere and to obtain geophysical characteristics of the main tectonic elements in the region. Qualitative analysis of the density profiles revealed features of fault tectonics at different depth levels. Oblique faults are shown to prevail in the crust of the region, while orthogonal faults prevail in the lithospheric mantle. It is established that the metamorphic basement of the northeastern margin of the North Asian Craton is divided by active long-lived zones into differently directed blocks. Different-level (mantle-crustal) igneous intrusions and endogenous mineralization are confined to the distinguished zones.

In this study, we consider the features of the deep structure of the Earth’s crust and the lithospheric mantle in the central part of the Lower Amur mineragenic zone and in the area that flanks on the zone from the west, including the Albazinsky gold ore cluster. Zones with a sharp change in density and magnetic properties associated with Late Cretaceous-Early Paleogene magmatism were established based on the calculated density and magnetic depth models of the territory. A ring structure ~200 km across was identified, which is characterized by the low-density lithospheric mantle and density and magnetic inhomogeneities in the Earth’s crust associated with a wide development of intrusive bodies within it, as well as their attitude and composition. The spatial relation of gold ore districts, clusters and deposits to density and magnetic inhomogeneities in the crust and lithospheric mantle is analyzed and the main patterns in their occurrence are shown. As a rule, they are confined to the low-density zones in the crust and marginal areas of deep (12–20 km) magnetic intrusions. Based on the findings, new promising areas to prospect for gold deposits are proposed. In particular, it was concluded that the potential to host gold mineralization was underestimated for the western part of the ring structure south of the Albazino deposit.

When studying an ore shoot in the Bakhmut ore zone of the Pioner mesothermal stockwork gold deposit (Priamurye, Russia) of vein and disseminated gold-quartz ores at its different levels, the authors identified discrete anomalously gold-rich areas (bonanzas). The objective of the research was to investigate the causes and conditions for bonanza formation and the facilitating factors. In addition to the analysis of the general distribution of gold in orebodies, a detailed macro- and microscopic study was carried out on the distribution of native gold in samples of ore and the nature of native gold. Gold particles are found to be hypogene, including those at the surface. In the zones of brecciated rocks, a distinct spatial displacement of native gold accumulations upwards relative to a dense network of veinlets and nests of quartz and their almost complete absence in the quartz bodies indicate telescoping of high-grade gold accumulations formed in a single productive gold-quartz stage. At the same time, spatial proximity is established between fields of gold particle accumulations and quartz-filled fracture cavities that show dominance in size and zones where swellings of quartz-filled fractures tend to thin and pinch out. Our findings and laboratory experiments yielded the information for a scientifically sound model of natural gas flotation of native gold nanoparticles as part of the «Aucr + gas» associates with the formation of bonanzas under the above favorable conditions at higher levels of the deposit in the presence of different low permeability screens.

PRAAT can easily and rapidly improve the students’ ability in pronouncing monophthongs in phonetics class. The effectiveness of this software can help the students acquire quality monophthongs sounds. Furthermore, this software could reduce the problem of students learning sounds of monophthongs accurately such as the accuracy of F1 and F2 that is contained in monophthongs. It provided many programs on how to record, analyze, measure, and save in the wave file. This research aimed to investigate  to what extent this software affects teaching monophthongs sounds in phonetics class for students. This research was conducted with 40 samples of students. They divided the class into 20 students for the control group and another 20 students for the experimental group. This quasi-experimental was to determine the best treatment before and  after giving the treatment by using CALL for the experimental group and NON-CALL for the control group. Before using the software,  the students were given the pre-test . Finally, they  sat for post- test in the last meeting. The result was exposed through analysis of a t-test. It showed a significant difference in learning through PRAAT software (p<.05). In addition to that, teaching vowels sounds proved to be more successful using PRAAT than the traditional method.
Chance-Constrained Automated Test Assembly

Published: May 2023

Classical automated test assembly (ATA) methods assume fixed and known coefficients for the constraints and the objective function. This hypothesis is not true for the estimates of item response theory parameters, which are crucial elements in test assembly classical models. To account for uncertainty in ATA, we propose a chance-constrained version of the maximin ATA model, which allows maximizing the α-quantile of the sampling distribution of the test information function obtained by applying the bootstrap on the item parameter estimation. A heuristic inspired by the simulated annealing optimization technique is implemented to solve the ATA model. The validity of the proposed approach is empirically demonstrated by a simulation study. The applicability is proven by using the real responses to the Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS) 2015 science test.
Modeling Item-Level Heterogeneous Treatment Effects With the Explanatory Item Response Model: Leveraging Large-Scale Online Assessments to Pinpoint the Impact of Educational Interventions
Authors: Gilbert Joshua B. , Kim James S. , Miratrix Luke W.
Published: May 2023

Analyses that reveal how treatment effects vary allow researchers, practitioners, and policymakers to better understand the efficacy of educational interventions. In practice, however, standard statistical methods for addressing heterogeneous treatment effects (HTE) fail to address the HTE that may exist within outcome measures. In this study, we present a novel application of the explanatory item response model (EIRM) for assessing what we term “item-level” HTE (IL-HTE), in which a unique treatment effect is estimated for each item in an assessment. Results from data simulation reveal that when IL-HTE is present but ignored in the model, standard errors can be underestimated and false positive rates can increase. We then apply the EIRM to assess the impact of a literacy intervention focused on promoting transfer in reading comprehension on a digital assessment delivered online to approximately 8,000 third-grade students. We demonstrate that allowing for IL-HTE can reveal treatment effects at the item-level masked by a null average treatment effect, and the EIRM can thus provide fine-grained information for researchers and policymakers on the potentially heterogeneous causal effects of educational interventions.
ANALYTICAL SOLUTION OF UNSATURATED SOIL WATER FLOW FROM A POINT SOURCE
Authors: Abid Maysoon B. , Hamad Safa N. , Hussain Sabah M.
Published: May 2023

Water flow into unsaturated porous media is governed by the Richards’ partial differential equation expressing the mass conservation and Darcy’s laws. The Richards’ equation may be written in three forms,where the dependent variable is pressure head or moisture content, and the constitutive relationships between water content and pressure head allow for conversion of one form into the other. In the present paper, the “moisture-based" form of Richards’ equation is linearized by applying Kirchhoff’s transformation, whichcombines the soil water diffusivity and soil water content. Then the similarity method is used to obtain the analytical solution of wetting front position. This exact solution is obtained by means of Lie’s method of infinitesimal transformation groups. The predicted results of the analytical solution agreed well with available results of experiments and numerical solutions.

Irrigation scheduling techniques is one of the suggested solutions for water scarcity problem. The study aims to show the possibility of using practical and applicable irrigation scheduling program which was designed by Water Resources Department at the University of Baghdad by using Spreadsheet Formulas for Microsoft Excel program, version 2007, with some modification to generalize it and made it applicable to various climatic zone and different soil types, as a salvation for the shortage of irrigation water inside the irrigation projects. Irrigation projects which incidence of Tigris River basin will be taken as an applicable example. This program was based on water budgeting and programmed depending on scientific concepts which facilitate irrigation structures operation and ease the use by farmers. By using the abilities of this program, the monthly and annually water requirements and drainage water were estimated. Finally a comparison is made between the calculated discharges with the designers suggested ones. This comparisons showed that the use of this type of irrigation scheduling (i.e. predicted irrigation scheduling) with itsapplicable constrains require high attention when choosing the cropping pattern for each climate zone. Also it found that this irrigation program is a useful tool for saving water if cropping pattern has been chosen carefully.

Whom to defend, whom to blame? Framing rejection shapes dual identification and political participation of postmigrants in Germany
Authors: Bayad Aydın , Ayanian Arin H. , Zick Andreas
Published: May 2023

The perception of rejection is a crucial factor for minorities’ feelings of belonging toward their ethnonational identities that can be more critical for their political participation than the legal frameworks of naturalisation (i.e., becoming a citizen). In social psychology, however, researchers mainly examine perceived discrimination by quantifying its subjective level, as if it is a unidimensional phenomenon. However, the source and cause of rejection matter for intergroup relations. In pilot study, we elaborated rejection with two sub-factors, namely the appraisal of threat and causal attribution via experimental vignettes in a pre-registered survey experiment (N = 217). We showed that the locus of causal attribution changes dual identification via latent measures among a Turkish postmigrant sample. Furthermore, both appraisals of threat and causal attribution had a main effect on political participation. These initial findings show that apart from the quantity, the quality of rejection is essential for the sense of belonging and political participation of migrant minorities. In the second pre-registered correlational study, we aim to replicate our initial findings in a broader sample consisting of Russian and Turkish postmigrants via an online survey with ameliorated measurements.
Differential expression of DNMT1 in cancer of the cervix.
Authors: Mamoor Shahan
Published: May 2023

Almost all cervical cancers are caused by infection with high-risk human papillomaviruses (HPVs) (1-3); the transcriptional features that distinguish the gene expression programs of HPV-induced cancers from that of other solid tumors resulting from non-viral abrogation of tumor suppression remain incompletely defined. We mined published microarray datasets (4, 5) to determine in an unbiased fashion and at the level of the transcriptome genes most differentially expressed in the primary tumors of patients with the most common type of cervical cancer, cervical squamous cell carcinoma. We found significant differential expression of the gene encoding DNA methyltransferase 1, DNMT1, when comparing tumor tissue from the human cervix to the tissue of origin. DNMT1 mRNA was present at significantly higher quantities in tumors of the cervix as compared to normal tissues from the cervix. Analysis of human survival data revealed that expression of DNMT1 in tumors of the cervix was correlated with overall survival in patients with cervical cancer. DNMT1 expression changes may be important for the initiation or progression of cancer of the cervix in humans.

Artificial Wisdom vs. Human Wisdom: A Potential Quest
Authors: Sharma Ankita , Kaman Sweta , Banerjee Romi
Published: May 2023

Artificial wisdom, also known as artificial general intelligence (AGI), aims to design machines that can grasp and learn any intellectual phenomenon - like contemplation, learning and decision-making - as a person can. AGI is still in its early stages of development. Human cognition underpins AI, where people build learning models and datasets for AI training. However, it is crucial to have humans in charge and human supervision in decision-making while developing and using AI. This article examines artificial wisdom and discusses real-world AI applications that exhibit it. Self-driving vehicles, self-interfaces, medical diagnostics, game-playing AI, natural language processing, robotics, and generative AI are examples. AI may help with decision-making, problem-solving, language processing, and data production. They also emphasize the necessity of continual research and development to improve AI and ensure its ethical use. This article also discusses the triumphs and pitfalls of artificial wisdom research, admitting that AGI development is still controversial. It emphasizes human-centered AI development and application. As AI becomes more significant in our lives, it must be built and utilized in a way that respects human values, ethics, and decision-making. In conclusion, AI research into artificial wisdom has the potential to revolutionize different sectors and help mankind, but it also has ethical and societal repercussions that must be carefully considered.

Applications of Machine Learning Methods to Assist the Diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorder
Authors: Elbattah Mahmoud , Cilia Federica
Published: May 2023

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a lifelong neuro-developmental disorder that is generally marked by a set of communication and social impairments. The early diagnosis of autism is genuinely beneficial for the welfare of children and parents as well. However, making an accurate diagnosis of autism remains a challenging task, which requires an intensive clinical assessment. The lack of a gold standard test calls for developing assistive instruments to support the process of examination and diagnosis. In this respect, this chapter seeks to provide practical applications of machine learning (ML) for that purpose. The study stemmed from an interdisciplinary collaboration by joint efforts of psychology and artificial intelligence researchers. The chapter is structured into two main parts as follows. Initially, the first part provides a review of the literature that approached the ASD diagnosis using a variety of ML approaches. Subsequently, the chapter presents a set of empirical ML experiments using an eye-tracking dataset. A vision-based approach is adopted based on the visual representation of eye-tracking scanpaths as a form for learning the behavioral patterns of gaze. The ML experiments include the application of supervised and unsupervised learning. It is practically demonstrated how ML could effectively support the ASD diagnosis through providing a data-driven second opinion.

In this Matters Arising, we respond to a recent article by Bachmann et al.1 We argue that dealing with plastics pollution as a novel entity within the planetary boundaries framework needs to consider the entirety of the plastics life cycle, from resource extraction to impacts on earth system processes. Singling out LCA quantifications to set a boundary for recycling plastics is not only an unviable myth but may be a dangerous approach. Bachmann et al.1 argue that it is possible to maintain business as usual and move the economy ‘towards circular plastics’ while staying within planetary boundaries. The authors’ solutions rest on poorly operationalized terms and unrealistic estimates, which over-state what technological solutions can achieve and risk locking the world into an even more plastic-intensive future. We see major flaws in their baseline assumptions and aim to better define and contextualize plastics pollution within Earth systems.

Background: A habitual avoidance component may enforce the persistence of maladaptive avoidance behavior in anxiety disorders. Whether habitual avoidance is acquired more strongly in anxiety disorders is unclear. Methods: Individuals with current social anxiety disorder, panic disorder and/or agoraphobia (n = 62) and healthy individuals (n = 62) completed a devaluation paradigm with extensive avoidance training, followed by the devaluation of the aversive outcome. In the subsequent test phase, habitual response tendencies were inferred from compatibility effects. Neutral control trials were added to assess general approach learning in the absence of previous extensive avoidance training. Results: The compatibility effects indicating habitual control did not differ between patients with anxiety disorders and healthy controls. Patients showed lower overall approach accuracy, but this effect was unrelated to the compatibility effects. Conclusions: In this study, anxiety disorders were characterized by reduced approach but not stronger habitual avoidance. These results do not indicate a simple and direct association between anxiety disorders and the acquisition of pervasive habitual avoidance in this devaluation paradigm.
Learning what matters: Causal abstraction in human inference
Authors: Shin Steven , Gerstenberg Tobias
Published: May 2023

What shape do people's mental models take? We hypothesize that people build causal models that are suited to the task at hand. These models abstract away information to represent what matters. To test this idea empirically, we presented participants with causal learning paradigms where some features were outcome-relevant and others weren't. In Experiment 1, participants had to learn what objects of different shape and color made a machine turn on. In Experiment 2, they had to predict whether blocks sliding down ramps would cross a finish line. In both experiments, participants made systematic errors in a surprise test that asked them to recall what they had seen earlier. The errors people made suggest that they had built mental models of the task that privileged causally relevant information. Our results contribute to recent efforts trying to characterize the important role that causal abstraction plays in human learning and inference.
Which meditation technique for whom? An experimental single-case study comparing concentrative, humming, observing-thoughts, and walking meditation

Meditation encompasses a variety of techniques. To date, only few studies have investi-gated differential effects and individual fit in different techniques. Our explorative study com-pared four basic techniques using an experimental single-case research design: concentrative meditation, humming meditation, observing-thoughts meditation, and walking meditation. Forty-four healthy participants without meditation experience were randomly assigned to one of the four techniques and 42 completed the treatment. Following a baseline period of 2 to 4 weeks, participants learned and practiced their technique 20 minutes daily for 6 to 8 weeks and complet-ed daily online questionnaires throughout the entire study period. At pretest, we assessed partic-ipants’ motivation and personality. We analyzed the data visually and by conducting single-case meta-analyses, correlation and multivariate analyses. Walking meditation led to the smallest im-provements in decentering and mind-wandering, but the highest in body awareness and emotion regulation. Body awareness, decentering and emotion regulation improved reliably and continu-ously over time, for all four techniques. Thus, these processes could represent common mecha-nisms for novice meditators. Individuals varied in response to the treatment. The two “classic” techniques (concentration, observing-thoughts) led to more consistently positive multivariate response patterns and to better responses in participants high in neuroticism. In contrast, those high in extraversion benefitted more from the two unusual ones (humming, walking). We addi-tionally observed interesting interactions with different motivational reasons. With this study, we hope to contribute to theory building and answering two urgent questions in meditation research – what are central mechanisms of meditation and who benefits most from what kind of practice.
Collaborative learning in the acquisition of English as a foreign language in early childhood. Aprendizaje colaborativo en la adquisición de inglés como idioma extranjero en la infancia temprana

Este artículo académico examina el aprendizaje colaborativo, considerado como un proceso en el que los estudiantes “interactúan en pequeños grupos para aprender” (Karno y Hatcher, 2020; Zambrano et al., 2019b, p.1). Así, el objetivo de este trabajo de investigación, es determinar el posible efecto de la colaboración en el aprendizaje de inglés en la infancia temprana, mediante la aplicación de la técnica de aprendizaje colaborativo juego amistoso, en comparación con el aprendizaje individual. En referencia a las hipótesis, la primera es que los estudiantes que aprenden en grupos colaborativos obtienen un mayor desempeño, con un esfuerzo mental más bajo, como segunda hipótesis. De esta forma, fue analizada la información recopilada en un entorno de clases remotas, con la participación de 120 estudiantes de Segundo Año de Educación General Básica de varias escuelas del Ecuador. En consecuencia, los resultados de la pregunta acerca de si es requerida la aplicación de la técnica de aprendizaje colaborativo juego amistoso, para mejorar el desempeño de los estudiantes en inglés como idioma extranjero, frente al aprendizaje individual, indican que: 76% de estudiantes de los grupos colaborativos tuvieron un mejor desempeño. Se puede concluir que, la estrategia pedagógica de aprendizaje colaborativo juego amistoso, si beneficia la adquisición de conocimientos (Barkley et al., 2014) en inglés y que los estudiantes de grupos de aprendizaje colaborativos tienen una menor demanda de esfuerzo mental, frente a aquellos que aprenden individualmente.
Sexual health behaviours and partner notification practices for sexually transmitted infections in young adults in Ireland

Background: Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs) impose burdens on individuals and communities, while their prevalence in young people has risen continually in recent years. Partner notification is an effective public health strategy which can limit STI transmission.Aims: This study aimed to explore young adults’ sexual health behaviours, attitudes toward STI testing, and feelings toward visiting a sexual health clinic. It also aimed to investigate preferences for partner notification, and the role of self-efficacy in peoples’ intentions to notify a partner for STIs including the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Methods: A quantitative, cross-sectional design was applied. Participants were 400 adults aged 18-34 years (M = 26.1; SD = 4.27), recruited from the Republic of Ireland. Results: Over half of participants reported never being tested for STIs. These young people placed less importance on undergoing regular STI testing and testing after unprotected sex than their counterparts who had been tested for STIs. Self-efficacy was significantly associated with intentions to notify partner(s) for STIs including HIV.Conclusions: As STIs are becoming increasingly prevalent in young adults, it is important to gain a deeper understanding of the interventions used to break the transmission train and how different beliefs and attitudes may affect them. Self-efficacy was a key component in PN intentions, suggesting that the belief in someone’s ability or skillset to perform a sexual health behaviour is positively related to their intention to perform the behaviour.
Sustainable Supporting: Investigating Effects of Support Strategy on Supporters’ Emotional Exhaustion

Published: May 2023

Within a societal landscape in which mental healthcare support providers are categorically overstretched, the present study compared the effects of providing different kinds of support as an initial step to developing strategies for decreasing the cumulative emotional burden of support provision for support providers. While socio-affective support strategies are concerned with making support-seekers feel better, cognitive strategies are focused on problem-solving and providing logistical support. In the present study, participants completed a single-session online study to examine whether support strategy (cognitive versus socio-affective support) influenced emotional exhaustion from before to after providing support to multiple individuals who discussed negative life experiences. Participants were assigned to either a cognitive support, socio-affective support, or no support control condition; watched five videos from the Stanford Emotional Narratives Database of pre-recorded individuals talking about negative experiences they had had; and wrote short statements of support (or control statements) between each video. Participants completed the Emotional Exhaustion Questionnaire (EEQ) prior to and following the support task, as well as measures of individual factors, such as baseline empathy, positive and negative affect, and ‘interpersonal’ task factors, such as the relatability and emotional intensity of the support- seekers’ videos. While data analysis yielded no main effect of support strategy on emotional exhaustion from pre- to post-support task, there were significant positive relationships between emotional fatigue change (EEC) and emotional intensity; EEC and relatability; and participants’ baseline empathy (cognitive, affective, and overall) and EEC. Emotional intensity and relatability moderated the effect of empathy on EEC, suggesting that how emotionally intense and relatable supporters found support provision to be may have been a more important contributor to emotional fatigue than support strategy. The present study represents a meaningful preliminary step in investigating mechanisms for decreasing the prevalence and intensity of burnout via support strategies. Future studies should examine the role of support strategies and other individual and interpersonal factors in making support more sustainable for support providers.
