Published: March 2024

The influence of social media (medsos) on the emotional well-being of adolescents has become a topic of increasing importance in recent years. Social media, such as Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and Snapchat, have changed the way teenagers interact and communicate with other people. However, the impact that the use of social media has on the emotional well-being of adolescents has a complex side. One of the main influences of social media on adolescents' emotional well-being is feelings of dissatisfaction with themselves and social comparison. In a virtual world that is often filled with the best photos and seemingly perfect lives, it's easy for teenagers to get caught up in feelings of inferiority and anxiety over the judgment of others. They often compare their life to the ideal life presented on social media, and this can lead to depression, anxiety and other emotional well-being issues. In addition, excessive use of social media can also trigger feelings of alienation and loneliness in adolescents. While they can connect with many people through these platforms, these virtual interactions often don't have the same depth as in real life. Teenagers may feel less emotionally and socially connected, as they focus more on interacting through screens than on developing direct relationships with others. This can lead to feelings of loneliness and loss of social connections that are important for their emotional development. In addition, bullying and online bullying (cyberbullying) are also one of the negative impacts of using social media on the emotional well-being of adolescents. Teenagers are often the target of verbal abuse, threats or defamation through social media platforms. This can seriously impact a teenager's mental and emotional health, increasing the risk of depression, anxiety, and even suicidal ideation. However, it is also important to remember that social media can also have a positive influence on adolescents' emotional well-being. They can help teens make new social connections, express themselves, and seek support from similar online communities. Apart from that, social media can also be a valuable source of information and knowledge for teenagers, if used wisely and with discipline.

Published: March 2024

Helping students improve the quality of learning is one of the important goals of feedback in the teaching and learning process, especially in writing activities. In this literature study, the aim was to examine how teachers can provide effective feedback in writing classes. To achieve this, several expert opinions and previous research on feedback for writing skills have been collected and compiled into several strategies that can be used by teachers to provide effective feedback in writing activities. From this study, it was found that effective feedback from teachers can help students identify their level of proficiency and weaknesses in writing. By considering students' writing needs and goals, the feedback provided can help students evaluate their own achievements and correct weaknesses to improve their writing skills. Teachers can choose certain types of feedback based on the purpose of the writing and the needs of the students. Therefore, it is expected that the teacher can provide effective feedback to increase students' motivation in improving their writing skills. Furthermore, further research is expected to provide information about oral and written feedback in writing activities.

The limited number of fuel filling stations (SPBU), the distance traveled and the time needed to get to the gas station, emergencies requiring fuel, plus wishes. Some people who prioritize time effectiveness and practicality are the reasons some people are reluctant to queue at gas stations. This then becomes a lucrative business opportunity and becomes additional income for some people to sell retail fuel using used plastic bottles which are sold on the side of the road. The types of retail fuel that are traded include Premium, Solar, Pertalite, to Pertamax. Basically, retail oil business activities, if you do not have a business license, can be punished according to the provisions of Article 53 of Law Number 22 of 2001 concerning Oil and Gas Earth. This type of legal research is normative legal research. The nature of the research in this study is analytical descriptive in nature. The type of data used in this research is library research. Judging from the legal factor, Law Number 22 of 2001 concerning Oil and Gas and its implementing regulations have correctly stipulated the rules for the legal distribution of fuel; law enforcement factors, namely the police are not running optimally because until now there has been no report regarding the illegality of retail fuel sales; the factor of facilities or facilities that support law enforcement is not running as it should because the law enforcement process that was initiated by complaints and reports related to the illegality of Retail BBM has not occurred; and community factors that prioritize the practicality of obtaining fuel oil (BBM) including corrupt cultural factors between consumers, Pertamini entrepreneurs, and unscrupulous staff at Fuel Filling Stations (SPBU) which also support the existence of illegal Pertamini. The effort to overcome the legality obstacle is the issuance of regulations that open opportunities for the sale of gasoline on a small scale to the general public through Regulation of the Downstream Oil and Gas Regulatory Agency Number 6 of 2015 concerning Distribution of Certain Types of Fuel Oil and Types of Fuel Specially Assigned to Areas where there are no distributors . Efforts to overcome legal awareness are repressive efforts through criminal liability and the application of criminal sanctions that violate the provisions of Article 23 of the Oil and Gas Law.

How Much Stupidity Do Organisations Need? A Psychodynamic Perspective on Functional Stupidity
Authors: Lomellini Gabriel
Published: March 2024

How much stupidity do organisations need to function effectively? The paradox coined by management researchers Spicer and Alvesson may seem baffling. According to these authors, organisations require a certain amount of uncritical obedience to function properly. The idea of ‘functional stupidity’ put forward by the authors to account for this phenomenon is no less ambiguous. In addition to overlooking the ethical implications of such a notion, it fails to provide a coherent explanation of its causes in organisations. Our proposal is based on the psychodynamics of work, founded by Christophe Dejours. We focus primarily on the subjective experience of work, which involves the worker’s body, and the way in which a whole theory of moral sense at work emerges from this experience. Adopting the form of an essay, we will support our argument with illustrative vignettes: stupidity will be interpreted here as the exact opposite of what the psychodynamics of work considers to be subjective intelligence at work, that is, ordinary sublimation. In so doing, we propose to extend the scope of the notion of organisational stupidity by adding a phenomenological, clinical and ethical dimension. We conclude by suggesting future avenues for research, through a ‘re-eroticisation’ of work.
Tension between Digital Distance and Physical Presence in Hybrid Teaching: Evidence from Two Natural Experiments During the COVID-19 Pandemic in a French Business School
Authors: Zunino Diego , Castellaneta Francesco , Dibiaggio Ludovic
Published: March 2024

The advent of digitization has promised learning paradigms based on digital communication and virtual reality at the expense of physical presence. During the COVID-19 health emergency, the tension between digital distance and physical presence evolved from competing alternatives to a more nuanced coexistence. Several organizations resorted to hybrid arrangements; hybrid teaching is a notable example. In this paper, we draw from the theory of planned behavior to theorize the effect of physical presence on learning outcomes in the context of hybrid teaching. We differentiate between individual and team learning outcomes. We predict that physical presence induces competition and has a negative effect on individual learning outcomes. For team learning outcomes, we predict that physical presence induces cooperation and has a positive impact. We exploit two natural experiments in a French business school during the fall semester of 2020. The school’s administration allocated students to subgroups randomly for fairness reasons. This context offered a natural within-subjects experiment, where every student was randomly assigned to either in-person or online lectures. Students had up to 4.9% lower likelihood of correctly answering exam questions for lectures they followed in person rather than online. However, in group-work assignments, teams with one more student following in person tended to see a 3.6% increase in their team evaluation. Digital distance, therefore, constitutes a barrier to learning in a hybrid setting only when tasks are evaluated on a team basis.

Applying the Coase theorem to optimize levels of environmental investment screening
Authors: Kim Youngyeon
Published: March 2024

The current paper applies the Coase theorem (Coase, 1960) to environmental investment screening. The Coase theorem is a legal and economic theory focused on explaining how parties when facing a situation involving externalities can reach economic efficiency without government intervention. Through secondary research, the paper examines practices in environmental investment screening, trends in the costs of screening, and trends in the costs of pollution. My findings are in four folds: (1) environmental screening incurs cost, (2) exclusion of environmental screening incurs costs, (3) environmental screening costs are declining, and (4) the cost per unit of pollution is increasing. Applying these findings to the Coase theorem, we conceptually identify an equilibrium point for the optimal level of environmental screening. I further show that the equilibrium point is shifting towards a higher level of environmental screening. The paper thus provides an efficiency-based argument for higher levels of environmental investment screening.

Introduction: Aureobasidium pullulans, ablack yeast-like dematiaceous fungus. Most ofthese infections commonly affect the immunocompromised patients; however, post-instrument inoculation was extremely rare. This is the first report of renal phaeohyphomycosis by A. pullulans after stone surgeries reported worldwide, despite a thorough literature review. Case Report: A 29-year-old immunocompetent native lady, with underlying bilateral grade II renal parenchymal disease, was referred for right staghorn calculi and big left ureteric stone with bilateral hydronephrosis back in 2016. She underwent right percutaneous nephrolithotripsy (PCNL) and left ureteroscopic surgery (URS). Intra-operatively, 90% stone clearance for the right kidney and complete stone clearance was achieved over the left ureteric stone. Blood investigation showed Urea was 8.1 and Creatinine was 200 respectively. There was no growth in Urine C+S sent intraoperatively. Post-operatively, she did a DTPA scan which showed moderate impaired right kidney function (28ml/min-69%) with a non-functioning left kidney (13ml/min-13%). Her condition and renal function had been closely monitored during follow-up in the urology clinic. During follow-up, computed tomography urography (CTU) reassessment in 2018 showed residual right renal stones and resolved left hydronephrosis. Subsequently, she underwent right retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS) and ureteric stenting. Intraoperatively, complete stone clearance for the right upper and middle pole; there were a few blackish tubular foreign bodies seen at the right lower pole which were extracted and sent for investigations. Interestingly, the histopathology (HPE) reported as blood clots while the fungal PCR done by the Institute for Medical Research (IMR) showed Aureobasidium pullulans DNA detected. Post-operatively, she completed a one-month course of anti-fungal antibiotic and was discharged home well. Subsequent urine culture was cleared and CTU assessment showed no evidence of stone recurrence or foreign bodies. Discussion and Conclusion: Renal phaeohyphomycosis caused by Aureobadium pollulans secondary to post-instrument inoculation is first reported worldwide in an immunocompetent native lady.

Published: March 2024

As a step prescribed by the Joanna Briggs Institute methodology before conducting a scoping review, the protocol aims to describe differences in creativity between deaf and hard of hearing and typically hearing people. Creativity as a mental process is important for the development of personality, imagination, communication skills, and interpersonal relationships. For this study, the focus was on creativity of deaf and hard of hearing persons. Deaf and hard of hearing people show specific characteristics in their mode of creativity. All the studies that deal with creativity in deaf and hard of hearing people will be included. Studies of any design in English, German, or Czech will be accepted as sources for assessment and analysis for systematic review. The Joanna Briggs Institute methodology for a scoping review will act as a framework for the review that will be prepared. 14 scientific databases will be chosen for this review. Two independent reviewers will identify and evaluate all the titles and abstracts that are acquired. The selected data will be extracted and reported in tabular form and a descriptive format.

Authors: Horobet Alexandra , Bulai Vlad , Radulescu Magdalena , Belascu Lucian , Dumitrescu Dan Gabriel
Published: March 2024

This paper focuses on the oil and gas sector because of its direct exposure to the complete range of ESG challenges, as well as strong pressure to change business models due to the energy transition. We investigate the ESG scores of a sample of global companies in this sector and their relationship to stock market performance and to the ESG intensity of corporate reports. As an original contribution, we incorporate the intensity of corporate discourse on technology-related sustainability topics for the first time in the literature. Our findings reveal that investors examine both sustainability discourse and results when determining a company’s value and validate the role of ESG scores and rankings in providing investors with an accurate and meaningful assessment of companies’ sustainability actions. Moreover, companies’ disclosure of their sustainable actions and technological developments related to sustainability is positively related to stock returns. This implies that a focus on sustainable practices and constant communication with investors might result in higher market performance. Furthermore, encouraging companies, particularly those in sectors and industries sensitive to ESG factors, to invest in ESG initiatives, is accompanied by improved performance, which makes them more attractive and better positioned to attract financing.

We present the results of our search for Lyman continuum (LyC)-emitting (weak) active galactic nuclei (AGN) at redshifts 2.3 ≲ z ≲ 4.9 from Hubble Space Telescope (HST) Wide Field Camera 3 (WFC3) F275W observations in the Ultraviolet Imaging of the Cosmic Assembly Near-infrared Deep Extragalactic Legacy Survey (UVCANDELS) fields. We also include LyC emission from AGN using HST WFC3 F225W, F275W, and F336W imaging found in Early Release Science (ERS) and Hubble Deep UV Legacy Survey data. We performed exhaustive queries of the Vizier database to locate AGN with high-quality spectroscopic redshifts. In total, we found 51 AGN that met our criteria within the UVCANDELS and ERS footprints. Out of these 51, we find 12 AGN that had ≥4σ detected LyC flux in the WFC3/UVIS images. Using a wide variety of space-based plus ground-based data, ranging from X-ray to radio wavelengths, we fit the multiwavelength photometric data of each AGN to a CIGALE spectral energy distribution (SED) using AGN models and correlate various SED parameters to the LyC flux. Kolmogorov–Smirnov tests of the SED parameter distributions for the LyC-detected and nondetected AGN showed they are likely not distinct samples. However, we find that the X-ray luminosity, star formation onset age, and disk luminosity show strong correlations relative to their emitted LyC flux. We also find strong correlations of the LyC flux to several dust parameters, i.e., polar and toroidal dust emission and 6 μm luminosity, and anticorrelations with metallicity and A
FUV. We simulate the LyC escape fraction (f
esc) using the CIGALE and intergalactic medium transmission models for the LyC-detected AGN and find an average f
esc ≃ 18%, weighted by uncertainties. We stack the LyC fluxes of subsamples of AGN according to the wavelength continuum region in which they are detected and find no significant distinctions in their LyC emission, although our submillimeter-detected F336W sample (3.15 < z < 3.71) shows the brightest stacked LyC flux. These findings indicate that LyC production and escape in AGN are more complicated than the simple assumption of thermal emission and a 100% escape fraction. Further testing of AGN models with larger samples than presented here is needed.
Correlations between Total and Spectral Solar Irradiance Variations
Authors: Kopp Greg , Nèmec Nina-Elisabeth , Shapiro Alexander
Published: March 2024

We compare short-term (seven solar rotations), wavelength-dependent temporal variations in spectral solar irradiance (SSI) with those from the total solar irradiance (TSI). Using space-based measurements, we empirically find good correlations across most of the visible and near-infrared (NIR) spectral range, suggesting that the TSI time variability can provide a useful estimate of SSI variability. These empirically determined correlations are consistent with physics-based bolometric variations, providing a straightforward wavelength-dependent parameterization of the SSI variability given a known change in the TSI. Using a solar-irradiance model to distinguish the facular and sunspot contributions, which are responsible for nearly all the irradiance variability on timescales longer than a day, we confirm these results and determine the correlation contributions due to each magnetic activity type individually. The correlations determined from the model agree in functional form to those of the empirical data, although we do note differences near opacity minimum (1.6 μm). Our results provide a simple TSI-based estimate of the time dependence of the spectral solar variability across the ultraviolet to NIR spectral regions, with the TSI accounting for 94% of the variability in the SSI over the 400–1200 nm range.
Multiwavelength Sun-as-a-star Analysis of the M8.7 Flare on 2022 October 2 Using Hα and EUV Spectra Taken by SMART/SDDI and SDO/EVE
Authors: Otsu Takato , Asai Ayumi
Published: March 2024

This paper presents a multiwavelength Sun-as-a-star analysis of the M8.7 flare on 2022 October 2, which was associated with a filament eruption and the subsequent coronal mass ejection. The Sun-as-a-star analysis was performed using Hα data taken by Solar Dynamics Doppler Imager on board the Solar Magnetic Activity Research Telescope at Hida Observatory, Kyoto University, and full-disk integrated extreme ultraviolet (EUV) spectra taken by the Extreme ultraviolet Variability Experiment (EVE) on board the Solar Dynamics Observatory. The Sun-as-a-star Hα spectra showed blueshifted absorption corresponding to the filament eruption. Furthermore, the EVE O v 629.7 Å spectra showed blueshifted brightening, which can also be attributed to the filament eruption. Even when the blueshifted absorption became almost invisible in the Sun-as-a-star Hα spectra, the O v blueshifted brightening up to −400 km s−1 was still clearly visible. This result indicates that even when the shifted components—which are expected to originate from stellar eruptions—become almost invisible in the spatially integrated stellar Hα spectra, the erupting materials may still be present and observable in EUV spectra. Additionally, the Sun-as-a-star Hα and O v spectra exhibited redshifted absorption and brightening, respectively, during the decay phase of the flare. These components probably originate from the post-flare loops, providing clues to the multitemperature nature of the post-flare loops in the spatially integrated observation. Our Sun-as-a-star results suggest that the combination of Hα and EUV lines allows the investigation of the multitemperature structure and temporal development of stellar active phenomena even in spatially integrated spectra.
