Authors:   Korean Association For Learner-Centered Curriculum And Instruction, Shin Ae-Ri , Shim Hyung-Soon
Published: August 2022

Objectives This study confirmed the effect of some dental hygiene departments and students' motivation to choose a major and satisfaction with their major on college life adjustment. Methods In the first semester of 2021, a survey was conducted on general characteristics, major selection motive, major satisfaction, and college life adaptation to 367 students from the dental hygiene department of G University located in Gwangju. Using the collected data, the motivation for choosing a major according to the general characteristics of the subjects, satisfaction with the major, correlation between college life adaptation and variables, and factors affecting college life adaptation were analyzed using SPSS 18.0. Results According to the general characteristics, the motivation for choosing a major, satisfaction with the major, and adaptation to college life showed significant differences in grade, course selection path, and reason for department application. Among the motivations for choosing a major, intrinsic motivation and major satisfaction had a strong positive correlation with college life adjustment. Intrinsic motivation among major selection motives and class satisfaction, relationship satisfaction, and cognitive satisfaction among major satisfaction were identified as significant variables as factors influencing college life adjustment. Conclusions In order to increase college students' adaptation to college life, it is necessary to design classes by considering intrinsic motivation when choosing a major and recognizing the importance of class satisfaction, relationship satisfaction, and cognitive satisfaction.

Authors:   Korean Association For Learner-Centered Curriculum And Instruction, Kim Do-Hee , Kim Deo-Mi
Published: August 2022

Objectives This study derived ways to improve the life satisfaction of young adults who experienced stigma as out-of-school youth by investigating the mediating effects of social stigma and ego-resiliency on the relationship between parental attachment and life satisfaction perceived by young adults who dropped out of school during adolescence. Methods To this end, data from the panel survey for drop-out adolescents of the fifth year (2018) conducted by National Youth Policy Institute were used. A dual mediation analysis was performed on the data collected from 315 young adults aged between 24 to 29 years old using the PROCESS Macro program. Results Analysis revealed that the mediating effect of ego-resiliency on the relationship between parental attachment and life satisfaction was not significant. However, the path in which parental attachment effects life satisfaction through social stigma and that in which it effects life satisfaction via social stigma and ego-resiliency in sequence were significant. Conclusions These results suggest that improving the quality of interactions with parents is useful in improving an individual's internalized stigma. It indicates that work that promotes ego-resilience contributes to increase life satisfaction reduced by social stigma.
A Study on the Illusion of Competence and Educational Implications of Middle School English Learners
Authors:   Korean Association For Learner-Centered Curriculum And Instruction, Lee Somi
Published: August 2022

Objectives The purpose of the study is to examine the existence of the cognitively biased illusive competency effect by comparing the predicted scores with the actual scores of the English Language Learners in middle school; and to discuss teaching strategies to accommodate the illusive competency effect. Methods 204 students in coeducational middle schools in Gyeongsangbuk-do were randomly selected. The students were instructed to submit their expected scores before the two paper-based English exams. Following the two English exams, the students were divided into quartile groups based on their actual scores. It was discovered that each group’s absolute value difference between the predicted scores and actual scores obtained from the two exams confirms the Dunning-Kruger effect and the illusive competency effect on the actual performance. Results The first and second measurements showed that the ‘high’ quartile group underestimated their actual score while overestimation was observed from the ‘middle low’ and ‘low’ groups. This is a typical phenomenon that affirms the capacity illusion. In addition, the way the competency illusion affects the student’s actual scores has been shown differently in each group. The competency illusion had a negative effect on the actual scores of the ‘high’ and ‘middle high’ groups with advanced learning capability. As for the ‘middle low’ group, a moderate level of competency illusion(overconfidence) had a positive effect on the actual scores while an excessive level of competency illusion negatively affected the actual scores. Conclusions This study affirmed the illusion of competency in middle school English learners, suggesting the illusion of competency may involve other subjects other than English from a cognitive psychologic perspective. Based on the implication driven by the results, this study discussed the need to facilitate the learner’s correct understanding of their own learning capacity by establishing teaching strategies that minimise the illusion of competency among students.

Authors:   Institute of Foreign Literature, Son Young-eun
Published: August 2022

This study aims to investigate the process of how the Albanian writer Ismail Kadare's novel has been received in Korea through the medium of the French language. Indirect translation is a method of translation that has been criticized by many scholars since it is often perceived as being distant from the original. Notwithstanding, it contributes to the reception of foreign literature written in minority languages, serving to enhance cultural diversity in the international literary world. To this end, this study attempts to identify the translators' positions and strategies, their perceptions about the original and translation based on the analysis of various paratexts collected on Kadare’s translated texts. Peritexts of fifteen translations published in Korea and epitexts of English translations were analyzed. The analysis shows that various efforts were made on the part of translators to overcome the limitations of indirect translation and to be faithful to the original, with their trust on the universal value of Kadare's works.

Psychological Well-Being as Cognitive-Emotional Component of Student Self-Regulated Learning
Authors: Balashov Eduard
Published: August 2022

The manuscript reports the theoretical aspects of studying the concepts of students’ psychological well-being in the process of self-regulated learning. The essence of student psychological well-being through a prism of cognitive and emotional personality factors has been theoretically studied. The role of psychological well-being and its components in the process of self-regulated learning activities of HEI students has been described. Psychological well-being has been viewed as an integral indicator of the level of personality, which affects resistance, and manifests itself in subjectively tangible satisfaction and life satisfaction. Self-regulated learning has been considered as a metacognitive level of initiation, motivation, monitoring, evaluation and control of all kinds and forms of internal and external activities by the subject of learning, which are aimed at reaching the predetermined goals of learning, personal and professional self-development and self-realization. The results of empirical research with the use of K. Ryff’s questionnaire entitled “Scales of Psychological Well-being,” as adapted by S. Karskanova, allowed us to evaluate personal growth, positive relationships with others, goals in life, managing environment, autonomy and self-acceptance which are indicators of individuals’ psychological well-being. Methods of statistical data processing such as descriptive statistics (group median - Me, arithmetic mean - M, standard deviation - σ) and the Kruskal-Wallis test, confirmed the existence of a statistically significant linear age-related decrease in indicators on the “Autonomy” Scale for the senior students. Analysis of the empirical data on the levels of defined psychological well-being has showed a linear correlation between psychological well-being and its levels. It has been concluded that the cognitive-emotional aspects of psychological well-being of modern student youth in learning activities have been dominated by dependent types of self-regulation in learning. The results have indicated that the most appropriate means to improve the psychological well-being of students, as a component of the emotional and behavioral level, is the formation of their active life position, responsibility for their own activities, motivation and autonomy in self-regulated learning activities. Prospective directions for future research have been described.

Published: August 2022

Violence against women and domestic violence has attracted a lot of attention of the scientific community over the last 30 years. During that period, this topic assumed a very important place in all international agendas and was tackled by the most important international organizations and associations. The Convention on preventing and combating violence against women and domestic violence, i.e. the Istanbul Convention, is one of the basic international documents which has had an influence on numerous legislations of European countries in the field of gender equality and domestic violence. The aim of this paper is to show by a comparative method and through analysis and review of available literature the advantages of the Istanbul Convention and its importance for gender equality through a review of the literature, and also to point out the criticisms attributed to it. Research results have shown that the difference between sex and gender equality is a stumbling block and a serious objection in countries with traditional, nationalist and hard autocratic regimes. Also, most European countries have fully implemented the Istanbul Convention in their legislation and thus significantly contributed to gender equality and protection of women from abuse and domestic violence. The discussion shall focus on the importance of adopting a new convention or resolution at the level of the United Nations (UN), which would cover all contentious issues related to violence against women and domestic violence, and which would be binding on all members.

Published: August 2022

Discussions about parish institution today often end in its crisis. It seems that this institution is unable to carry out its functions in the modern world. On the other hand, so far, despite the emergence of new movements in the Church that are becoming the reference point in the life of some Christians, there is no institution that has replaced the parish yet. The parish remains a reference institution that shows the real face of the Church in society. On 20 July 2020, the Congregation for the Clergy published an instruction entitled “The pastoral conversion of the Parish community in the service of the evangelising mission of the Church”. This paper is an invitation to read and reflect on the pastoral conversion in parish life that focuses on the context of Asian Church priority to be a participatory Church and communion of communities. By applying the analytical method, we will examine the content of the instruction in confront with the context. In this way, finally we can find out the main points of how this instruction encourages pastoral conversion which should become the concern for the Asian Church. Therefore, this work helps us to understand better the importance of community conversion which means becoming a missionary community with the following two levels: all different parish communities that build up the entire parish and the parish community itself.

Stanford neuromodulation therapy (SNT) is the state-of-the-art magnetic stimulation protocol that has been developed for management of treatment-resistant depression (TRD). The study was aimed to assess the possibility of SNT implementation in clinical practice and to define the protocol safety and efficacy in patients with TRD being an episode of the recurrent depressive disorder or bipolar disorder at the independent center. The study involved six patients (among them three women aged 21–66) with TRD associated with recurrent depression and type 1 or 2 bipolar disorder. The patients received intermittent theta-burst stimulation in accordance with the SNT protocol for five days: applying 10 triple blocks of stimulation daily at intervals of 1 hr between the blocks to the selected stimulation site showing maximum negative functional connectivity with subgenual cingulate cortex within the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex. The Montgomery–Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) was used for clinical assessment of the effects, the follow-up period was three months. The improvement of depressive symptoms to the levels characteristic of remission immediately after the SNT completion was observed in five patients (MADRS score ≤10). After three months, two patients still had remission, the condition of three patients met the criteria of mild depressive episode, and one female patient withdrew from the study due to logistical difficulties. No serious adverse events were reported. The findings confirm safety and potentially high efficacy of SNT, including in patients with type 1 and 2 bipolar disorders.

Published: August 2022

Objectives: Caring for adolescents with developmental disabilities (DD) is stressful and challenging, and mothers usually provide care for these children in Korea. This study aimed to identify factors influencing quality of life (QoL) in mothers of adolescents with DD.Methods: A predictive design was used. Data were collected from a web-based survey administered to a convenience sample of 154 mothers of adolescents with DD from October to November 2020. Data were analyzed using the t-test, analysis of variance, Pearson correlation coefficients, and multiple regression.Results: Perceived health, depression, and family strength were significantly correlated with QoL. Multiple regression showed that family strength, perceived health, depression, and monthly household income influenced the participants’ QoL, and these factors accounted for 69.2% of variance in QoL. Family strength was the factor most strongly affecting QoL (β=0.39).Conclusion: The study results indicate that health professionals and policy-makers need to pay attention to the overall QoL and physical and psychological health of mothers of adolescents with DD. Since our findings raise the importance of family strength in the QoL of this population, programs to improve family strength need to be implemented and strengthened. Interventions to improve perceived health and decrease depression should be applied, and knowledge on adolescent characteristics and changes should be delivered to caregivers when providing education and consultations. The findings will be helpful for developing educational and counseling programs for this population.

Authors: Jung Yeseul , Park Jiyoung
Published: August 2022

Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) has affected and changed diverse aspects of organizations. Based on the perspective that integrates the socialization process through the lens of work stress, we viewed COVID-19 as a situational stressor and examined the role of the fear of COVID-19 on newcomers’ organizational socialization process. We aimed to investigate the relations between newcomers’ fear of COVID-19 and their proximal organizational socialization outcomes such as role clarity, task mastery, and relationship building. We also hypothesized leader emotional and instrumental support would buffer the effect of newcomers’ fear of COVID-19 on emotional exhaustion. Based on a survey using a total of 232 newcomers who joined their organization during the COVID-19 pandemic, we found that the fear of COVID-19 was positively related to emotional exhaustion, and emotional exhaustion mediated the relations between the　fear of COVID-19 and two socialization outcomes such as task mastery and relationship building. Leader emotional support was found to weaken the positive link between the fear of COVID-19 and emotional exhaustion while the moderating role of leader instrumental support was not supported. Based on these results, we discussed implications and directions for future research.

Authors: Jeong Da Jung , Kim Jae Cheol , Heo Chang Goo
Published: August 2022

Since COVID-19 pandemic, the use of asynchronous video interviews(AVIs) has increased in the selection process. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of the interviewer video on the applicants' reactions and impression management behavior during the AVIs process. Accordingly, interviewees were randomly assigned to three conditions and participated in the AVIs. The first condition is that every process of the AVIs was conducted through text only. The second and the third condition both provide videos that ask questions and listen to the applicants' answers, but the former includes virtual character interviewers while the latter includes real person interviewers. Results indicated that the most positive interviewees' reactions were shown in the third condition. In detail, the third condition showed higher social presence, interpersonal treatment, and perceived usefulness compared to the first condition in the AVIs process, and the interviewer video that includes real person interviewers had positive effects on procedural justice and organizational attractiveness through these variables. In the case of the second condition, there was no significant difference in the applicants’ reactions to the first condition, and it showed a lower social presence than in the third condition. Hence it indicates that the virtual characters cannot substitute the positive effects of real person interviewers. Also, there was no notable difference in honesty and deceptive impression management behavior between the three conditions. This study is meaningful in that it proposed an effective way to improve the participants’ reactions in conducting the AVIs, and is expected to be used as a basis for research related to the construction of AVIs.

Assessment of long-term climatic variability of Uttarakhand
Authors: Kumar Sujeet , Suryavanshi Shakti
Published: August 2022

A trend analysis was performed for historic (1901-2002) climatic variables (Rainfall, Maximum Temperature and Minimum Temperature) of Uttarakhand State located in Northern India. In the serially independent climatic variables, Mann-Kendall test (MK test) was applied to the original sample data. However, in the serially correlated series, prewhitening is utilized before employing the MK test. The results of this study indicated a declining trend of rainfall in monsoon season for seven out of thirteen districts of Uttarakhand state. However, an increasing trend was observed in Haridwar and Udhamsingh Nagar districts for summer season rainfall. For maximum and minimum temperature, a few districts exhibited a declining trend in monsoon season whereas many districts exhibited an increasing trend in winter and summer season. Mountain dominated areas (as Uttarakhand state) are specific ecosystems, distinguished by their diversity, sensitivity and intricacy. Thus the variability of rainfall and temperature has a severe and rapid impact on mountainous ecosystems. Nevertheless, mountains have significant impacts on hydrology, which may further threaten populations living in the mountain areas as well as in adjacent, lowland regions.
Interception and runoff of the high Andean forest in the “El Malmo” Protective Forest Reserve
Authors: Franco Albaluz Ramos , Pascual Dolors Armenteras
Published: August 2022

Tropical forests are globally important for their biodiversity and the ecosystem services, and they are key to the global water cycle. Anthropogenic changes and pressures affecting tropical forests affect the fundamental role of tropical forests in water supply. This study evaluates the relationship between the vegetation coverage in the high Andean forest of the “El Malmo” Protected Forest Reserve and the quality and quantity of intercepted runoff; the life zone analyzed comprises four types of cover: dense high Andean forest, low secondary vegetation, broadleaf plantation and mosaic of pasture with natural spaces. Eight setups (two per cover) were installed, each composed of a runoff plot and a precipitation meter under the canopy; data collection was carried out every eight days for 24 weeks. The results indicate that precipitation interception does not vary in each canopy, while surface runoff and its quality with respect to sediment are affected, which is mainly due to differences in soil physical conditions. The cover that allows the best dimensions of water quality and quantity is the dense high Andean forest. The inﬂuence of anthropic intervention in the area and the presence of invasive species negatively affect these variables. This work provides knowledge on the hydrological behavior of the reserve for forest management. It also generates information on the interception/runoff relationship in the forests of the Cundiboyacense region, which has not been available until now, becoming an starting point of comparison for further research in high Andean ecosystems.

Published: August 2022

As an important metal mineral, manganese is widely used in metallurgy, chemical industry, national defense industry and other fields. Global manganese resources are characterized by extremely uneven distribution, highly concentrated production capacity, and serious separation between supply and demand. China’s manganese resources are characterized by extensive distribution but insufficient reserves, low grade and poor quality, high external dependence, and imperfect resource guarantee system. In recent years, China’s manganese industry has developed rapidly, and China has become the world’s largest consumer of manganese resources. With the growth of new energy market, the contradiction between supply and demand of manganese resources in China will further increase in the future. Based on the actual situation that manganese ore is still in short supply and in great demand in China, in order to ensure the strategic safety of national manganese ore resources and promote the healthy development of China’s manganese industry, this paper puts forward sustainable development suggestions such as formulating long-term supply planning, strengthening overseas layout, promoting capacity cooperation and establishing a diversified security system.

The Yellow River Basin is currently facing a fragile water ecological environment and severe water resources security situation, located in the Yellow River a few bends inside the city group of Hoh-hot-Baotou-Ordos-Yulin also presents the contradiction of limited water resources carrying capacity and in-creasing water demand. Based on the ecological foot-print model, the temporal and spatial variation characteristics of the ecological footprint of water resources in Hohhot-Baotou-Ordos-Yulin urban agglomeration from 2001 to 2019 are analyzed. The influencing factors of the ecological footprint are analyzed by using the correlation test, and the sustainable utilization of water re-sources in Hohhot-Baotou-Ordos-Yulin urban agglomeration is discussed. It is found that there is an obvious gap between the ecological footprint of water resources per capita and the ecological carrying capacity of Hoh-hot-Baotou-Ordos-Yulin urban agglomeration. The eco-logical pressure index is always higher than the standard value, and the ecological deficit of Ordos is the most serious. The contradiction between the social development of urban agglomeration and the utilization of water resources is more prominent, and the utilization situation of water resources is not optimistic.

Introduction: Since implementation, electroconvulsive therapy has remained very effective treatment in psychiatry. The aim of this study is to present the differences in its use in medical practice around the world. The range of diseases in which ECT is most commonly used and the frequency of its use in different countries were compared with special attention to the differences between highly and poorly developed countries.

Material and method: Review of literature by searching PubMed and Google Scholar databases using the keywords: indications of ECT, frequency of ECT use for papers published from 1991 to 2021.

Results: Among the diseases for which electroconvulsive therapy is used worldwide, major depression dominates, while in Asia and Africa this therapy is used in schizophrenia. In Latin America it is used primarily for schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. In Poland, it is used for depression, bipolar disorder, and fewer for schizophrenia. The highest rate of people treated with therapy per 100,000 population is found in countries such as the USA (51), Canada (23.2-25.6), Australia (37.85), Sweden (41), Finland (23), Slovakia (29.2), Estonia (27.8) and Belgium (47).

Conclusions: There is a relationship between the range of diseases most frequently treated with ECT, the frequency of use and the level of country development. In the high developed countries, ECT is used mainly in major depression, in less developed countries more frequent treatment of schizophrenia may be determined by the high cost of medications and limited availability of hospital beds. The highest rates of use of this therapy are found in more developed countries.

The automotive sector has recently undergone enormous transformations, mainly dictated by the requirements to reduce the negative impact of the automotive industry on the natural environment. Reducing emissions from this sector has become the main driver of change in modern motor vehicles. Unfortunately, due to economic differences in the world, this process is not the same in all countries. Despite these differences, however, even in less developed countries, efforts are made to reduce vehicle exhaust emissions. The work conducted road tests, bench, calculated comparative studies of fuel, economic, environmental and energy performance of a serial car with a standard carburetor power system and equipped with an electronic gasoline injection system and a three-component catalytic converter under operating conditions.

Reducing exhaust emissions from motor vehicles has become a major task in the design of modern motor vehicles. Internal combustion engines, despite the increasingly frequent restrictions on, for example, entry to city centers, still constitute the majority of the used motor vehicles. For these reasons, it is very important to properly operate and control the used motor vehicles, especially in the field of exhaust emissions. One way is to replacement of the vehicle fleet and individual cars with newer generation vehicles. Unfortunately, due to economic differences in the world, the rolling stock replacement process is not the same in all countries. However, despite these differences, even in less developed countries, efforts are being made to reduce vehicle emissions. This work presents road, bench and computational comparative tests of the fuel, economic, environmental and energy characteristics of a series car with a standard carburetor supply system and equipped with an electronic gasoline injection system and a three-component catalyst under operating conditions.
Sliding Mode Control-Based MPPT and Output Voltage Regulation of a Stand-alone PV System
Authors: Manuel Nelson Luis , İnanç Nihat
Published: August 2022

When it comes to reducing emissions caused by the generation of electricity, among different renewable energy sources, the solar energy gains prominence, due to its geographical availability, simplicity of implementation, and absence of physical moving parts. However, the performance of photovoltaic systems is dependent on environmental conditions. Depending on temperature and solar irradiation, the photovoltaic (PV) system has an operating point where maximum power can be generated. The techniques that are implemented to find this operating point are the so-called maximum power point tracking (MPPT) algorithms. Since weather conditions are variable in nature, the output voltage of the PV system needs to be regulated to remain equal to the reference. Most of the existing studies focus either on MPPT or on voltage regulation of the PV system. In this paper, the two-stage PV system is implemented so that both MPPT and voltage regulation are achieved simultaneously. Additionally, an improved version of the perturb and observe (P&O) algorithm based on artificial potential fields (APF), called APF-P&O, is presented. According to the results of the simulations carried out in MATLAB/Simulink software, the APF-P&O method is more efficient than the conventional method.

Published: August 2022

The study was conducted on 41-second lactation Holstein cows of German origin. The shelter type is a semi-open field type and the research period is 12 months. The activities in the first 100 days of lactation per day were 451.4 ± 133.5, and in the second 100 days, it was determined at 420.78 ± 118.0. The activities are divided into 3 parts within 24 hours (at night, during the day between two milkings, and in the evening). While there was no statistical difference between days 100 and 200 of lactation, the lowest activity was recorded at night and the highest activity during the day. The conductance, milk flow, and milking duration of the milk were within the normal range in the first 100 and 200 days and no statistical difference between them could be determined. Mean daily milk yield was 28.28 ± 3.86 kg for the first 100 days and 25.15 ± 3.61 kg for the following 100 days, and the difference was found to be significant (P<0.001). To investigate the influence of the daily activity numbers taken into account as factors on the milking parameters, 4 groups were formed for the 100th and 200th days. Accordingly, the effect of activity on milk conductivity, milking duration, and milk yield could not be determined in the first 100 days; its effect on milk flow rate proved significant (P<0.05). No effect of activity on milking parameters was observed in 200 days of lactation. It is assumed that the inclusion of the housing type, lactation number, and lactation period as well as the seasonal effect in activity studies in cows will contribute positively to animal welfare in herd management.

Published: August 2022

There are studies that present metabolic disorders in alcohol drinkers are associated with thiamine deficiency. Therefore, in the present study, it was aimed to investigate the effectiveness of thiamine in rats with binge drinking model. For this purpose, total 21 spraque dawley rats were divided into three equal groups as control, alcohol and thiamine+alcohol groups. The thiamine+ethanol group was given thiamine at a daily dose of 100 mg/kg by oral gavage, starting 2 days before the ethanol administration. Alcohol and thiamine+alcohol groups were given 3.45g/kg/day ethanol as 20%. At the end of the study, while serum total bile acid, total bilirubin and insulin levels increased in rats in the alcohol group compared to the rats in the control group; total protein and albumin levels decreased (P<0.05). In the thiamine + alcohol group, LDL-cholesterol, total cholesterol, bile acid levels and AST enzyme activity increased, while ALT enzyme activity and total protein levels decreased compared to the control group (P<0.05). There was no statistically significant result in the values in the thiamine+alcohol group compared to the alcohol group. It has been concluded that acutely administered thiamine supplementation had no effect on alcohol-induced biochemical parameter changes in binge-drinking animals. In this sense, studies with longer-term thiamine use are needed.
