Published: July 2024

The landscape changes through the increasing built-up areas (settlements and industrial) have a potential impact on reducing the quality of agricultural land. Waste from anthropogenic activities (industrial and domestic) is the main source of heavy metals that can affect rice production in the fields. This study examines the quality changes of paddy fields (Oryza sativa L.) polluted by wastewater in Muara Bakti Village, Bekasi Regency. Wastewater's impact on paddy fields is known through heavy metal contamination analysis in soil and rice plants. Chemical analysis of soil, water and plants was completed by the Balai Penelitian Tanaman Sayuran (Balitsa) Laboratory, West Bandung. The results showed that heavy metal levels such as lead (Pb) and cadmium (Cd) in the paddy soil samples were above the threshold in soil, respectively more than 25 mg/l and 0.01 mg/l. In contrast, the rice plant samples, it was identified as containing heavy metals such as Cd and chromium (Cr). Pb content was not detected in the rice plants. Soil in Muara Bakti Village contained optimal nutrients that are still suitable for agriculture. However, heavy metal content detected in soil samples and rice plants requires special handling to prevent endangering the agroecosystem and human health. Keywords: Agroecosystem, Heavy metals, Paddy fields, Soil pollution, Waste

An Experimental Vignette Study of How Supervisor Developmental Feedback and Psychological Safety Influence Intention to Innovative Work Behavior in Education Technology Company
Authors: Shabrina Devika Nur , Etikariena Arum
Published: July 2024

This study examines the influence of supervisor developmental feedback (SDF) and psychological safety (PS) on the intention to engage in innovative work behavior in educational technology (EdTech) companies in Indonesia through experimental vignette method (EVM). The participants of this study consisted of 287 employees from EdTech companies in the Jabodetabek area. Participants were provided with hypothetical scenario to form perceptions of manipulated scenarios. Data were collected using an Indonesian version of the intention to innovative work behavior scale after reading the hypothetical scenario. Descriptive statistical techniques and factorial ANOVA were used for data analysis. The results indicate that SDF significantly predicts intention to engage in innovative work behavior (F(1, 283)=27.86; p=.00). Similarly, PS also significantly predicts intention to innovative work behavior (F(1, 283)=164.41; p=.00). However, the interaction between SDF and PS does not have a significant effect on the intention to innovative work behavior (F(1, 283)=.74; p=.39). Understanding the influence of SDF and PS on innovative work behavior (IWB) can assist supervisors in creating a psychologically safe environment and providing developmental feedback to enhance employees' intention to engage in innovative work behavior.

Published: July 2024

The present work describes the radiographic and anatomopathological findings of osteochondromatosis in the skeleton of a female lovebird (Agapornis fischeri), approximately three years old, with a history of apathy, difficulty in breathing and feeding, and inability to fly. Macroscopically, expansive multinodular enlargements of varying sizes and degrees of hardness were observed in the sternum, skull, right radiocarpal joint, ulna, humerus, ribs, and vertebrae. On post-mortem radiographic examination, the nodules showed varying degrees of radiopacity. Microscopically, the neoplastic nodules were almost always located on the cortical surface of the affected bones and were composed of a layer of chondrocytes in different phases of differentiation, predominantly hypertrophic and well differentiated. Adjacent to the neoplastic cartilaginous tissue was the osteoid matrix or mature, mineralized trabecular bone tissue formed by endochondral ossification. Within the neoplasm, hematopoietic tissue and adipose tissue were observed among the trabecular bone tissue. Based on radiographic, macro, and microscopic characteristics, the diagnosis of osteochondromatosis was made.

Achromatic vision is a disorder that impairs a person's ability to recognize or perceive certain color types. The cause is mainly genetic, X-linked recessive inheritance, and consequently more frequent in men than in women. The aim of this research was to determine the frequency of colorblindness among secondary school pupils (male and female) in Erbil city. The research was carried out at five secondary schools (Baydax, Bray, Kaiwan, Sarhaldan, and Snubar). Prospective research of 676 students (219 males, 457 females) has been carried out to determine the frequency of color-blindness. The students’ age range (11-17 years). The Ishihara Pseudo-Isochromatic Color Plates 24 edition was used to assess the students. If the student was colorblind, he or she was further classified into two categories (Deutan, Protan). The obtained data was compiled and evaluated to determine the color blindness prevalence, different forms of color blindness prevalence as well as gender-specific prevalence. The results showed that, among 676 participants 14 (2.07 %) were colorblind. Six (0.88%) out of the 14 colorblind students were males, whereas 8 (1.18%) were females. The frequency of color-blindness is observed to be higher in females than in males. In this investigation, only red-green colorblindness was detected. 5 (0.73%) of the 14 colorblind pupils were Protan, whereas 9 (1.33%) were Deutan. The total colorblindness was not observed.

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is characterized by early-onset deficits in communication and interpersonal interactions. This study aimed to investigate the effects of sitagliptin in a murine model induced by sodium valproate (VPA) and assess its impact on ASD-like behaviors. The study employed an open field test to evaluate locomotor activity and anxiety levels. Additionally, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties of sitagliptin were examined by measuring reduced glutathione, malondialdehyde, and interleukin-6 (IL-6) levels. Prenatal VPA- exposed mice were divided into four groups, including those receiving sitagliptin and risperidone treatments, along with a saline control group. Behavioral assessments, including open field tests, were conducted on postnatal day 65, while oxidative stress and anti-inflammatory responses were assessed on postnatal day 66. Results indicated that sitagliptin significantly reduced oxidative stress and neuro-inflammation in the brain, leading to notable improvements in aberrant behavioral patterns. Sitagliptin demonstrated strong anxiolytic efficacy, alleviating ASD- associated symptoms such as anxiety, fearfulness, and hyperactivity in the open field test. Moreover, sitagliptin exhibited robust antioxidant capabilities, surpassing risperidone in scavenging free radicals and suppressing inflammation. Notably, the dose of 10 mg/kg of sitagliptin showed significant antioxidant effects on lipid peroxidation compared to risperidone. These findings underscore the potential promise of sitagliptin as a therapeutic intervention for individuals with ASD. Its ability to alleviate oxidative stress, neuro-inflammation, and behavioral abnormalities, along with its strong anxiolytic and antioxidant properties, positions sitagliptin as a compelling candidate for further exploration in the quest for effective ASD treatments.

Gastric ulcer, characterized by the erosion of the stomach mucosa, represents a persistent condition rooted in the delicate balance between aggressive factors and mucosal defenses. This study aimed to evaluate the comparative efficacy of herbal medicine derived from Origanum Vulgare against the conventional drug omeprazole in ulcer prevention. Utilizing Albino male rats, several experimental groups were formed: a positive control group induced with ethanol and dissected after one hour, a negative control group fed normally, rats induced with ethanol and pre-treated with Origanum Vulgare aqueous extracts at both low (300mg/kg) and high (600mg/kg) doses, and a group administered with the standard drug omeprazole at 20mg/kg. Results revealed notable ulcer inhibition percentages for Origanum Vulgare at both high (85.75%) and low (81.68%) doses, compared to omeprazole (87.38%). The observed ulcer inhibition rates in Origanum Vulgare groups were significantly superior to both the omeprazole and control groups. Additionally, Origanum Vulgare exhibited a substantial reduction in stomach index and cellular proliferation, accompanied by diminished cell damage. These findings underscore the heightened efficacy of higher doses of Origanum Vulgare aqueous extracts over lower doses in ulcer prevention.

Published: July 2024

Through Qualitative Comparative Analysis (QCA) on destination attractiveness characteristics at the country level, this study identifies attribute configurations in the pre- and post-pandemic period to analyze the changes and differences generated by an exogenous event (COVID-19). The results suggest that the destination attractiveness attributes work together, in multidimensional configurations, to increase leisure travel volume. We found an important change in pat-terns/configurations of attractiveness between the pre- and post-pandemic scenarios. Our findings suggest that the destination attributes may change in importance and valuation or disappear for some configurations. The conclusion has implications for the stakeholders related to the destination attractiveness development, showing possible patterns of tourism attributes to guide the action to improve the resilience in the tourism sector and recover these activities in a disaster scenario.

Published: July 2024

This paper aims to research the impact of psychological contract fulfilment on employee innovative work behaviour, and the mediating role of work engagement and the moderating role of social support. A quantitative analysis was adopted to address in research. Two-wave data were collected from 332 respondents working in China. Hierarchical regression analyses were conducted to assess the proposed hypotheses. Results revealed that psychological contract fulfilment positively impacted innovative work behaviour. In addition, engagement partially mediated the relationship between psychological contract fulfilment and innovative work behaviour. Furthermore, the findings suggest that social support moderates the relationship between work engagement and innovative work behaviour, and, in turn, moderates the indirect effect of psychological contract fulfilment on innovative work behaviour through work engagement. This research extends the generalizability of findings in the psychological contract literature. The results bear significant implications for the management of employees’ innovative work behaviour.

Authors: Xuan Chen , Ibrahim Ahmad Zubir bin , Choon Low Kah
Published: July 2024

In recent years, how farmers leverage social capital to improve their well-being has become a crucial question in post-poverty alleviation China. This study assessed the impact of ‘linking social capital’ on farmers’ well-being, as mediated by self-efficacy. The study was conducted using data collected from 443 randomly selected farmers from two villages in Guizhou Province, China. The Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Model (PLS-SEM) was employed to analyze the proposed relationships in the study. The results indicate that linking social capital, when mediated by self-efficacy, positively impacted farmers’ well-being. This suggests that policymakers and implementers exercising hierarchical power in social improvement programs in disadvantaged provinces, such as Guizhou, should take full advantage of linking social capital to effectively improve farmers’ well-being. In doing so, the study concludes, they should consider the positive role farmers’ self-efficacy can play in the process.
Why Do So Few Preliminary Questions Come From Czechia?
Authors: Kunertová Tereza
Published: July 2024

Although a substantial part of the body of laws of an EU Member State is founded upon European Union law and norms, the number of preliminary questions emanating from courts in the Czech Republic appears to be disproportionately low compared to other similar EU Member States. The aim of this article is to analyse and outline possible reasons for the lack of preliminary questions coming from the Czech Republic. In her analysis, the author identifies three possible factors underpinning the issue. These factors include attitudes towards the EU and a general lack of understanding of the relevance of EU laws and norms; the role of preliminary rulings; and the perception and recognition of courts. An integral part of this analysis is a critical commentary on the shifts in how courts and tribunals are perceived within the meaning of Art. 267 TFEU. Lastly, the author offers guidance to fellow legal professionals and academics for interpreting EU norms.

Authors: Karagiannopoulou Chara , Tastsoglou Evangelia , Petrinioti Sandy
Published: July 2024

This paper presents a feminist analysis of the manifold and intertwined discriminations faced by asylumseeking women in a European “borderland”—specifically, Greece. It explores how these discriminations operate across law, policy, practice, and discourse, while highlighting the dynamic interplay of intersectional discriminations with citizenship rights and practices. Data were collected through 35 interviews with asylumseeking women. The analysis shows that (a) intersectional discriminations occur at both macro- and microlevels, reproducing and consolidating the women’s “lessened” citizenship, while (b) “lessened” citizenship reinforces their precarious status and leaves them vulnerable to multiform, multi-sited gender-based violence.

Published: July 2024

In March 2023, Indonesia was confronted with a situation that was also a worldwide concern. The hosting of the U20 World Cup in Indonesia has been cancelled. This study, however, will not address the reasons why this could happen but rather the attitudes of the world's newspapers in reporting on the subject. It is significant because, as a nation which constantly seeking global recognition, Indonesia should be introspective by understanding the global community's perspectives on the problems that exist in Indonesia, which can be illustrated by news about Indonesia that exists in foreign newspapers. Furthermore, attitude analysis can be done using Appraisal Theory. This study sampled three articles from online news: BBC, CNA, and The Straits Times. The data were analyzed by adopting a mix-method. The results obtained that the three news articles had negative attitudes perspective. Furthermore, the findings of this study's analysis can be used as teaching material for language and communication students interested in becoming journalists or writing articles for print and online publications.

Proposing the idea of perception toward native English-speaking teachers (NESTs) and non-native English-speaking teachers (non-NESTs), this research was motivated by the historical changes from the ‘fallacies’ in finding the most suitable English teachers between the two categories to discussing their potential if those teachers collaborated in team teaching. This study aimed to reveal a) the top three language skills pre-service English teachers perceived to improve if taught by either NESTs or Indonesian English teachers and b) the priority list of qualifications to meet by them. The quantitative findings from a close-ended questionnaire involving 186 pre-service English teachers in the Department of English Education at an Indonesian university indicated that the respondents tend to view NESTs as good models to teach oral-aural skills such as listening, pronunciation, and speaking. On the other hand, Indonesian English teachers could better-supporting students in teaching written skills such as grammar, vocabulary, and writing skills, which are more related to accuracy and language features. For the second objective, our results indicated that our respondents agreed that the English teaching profession should have fair treatment. Both NESTs and Indonesian English teachers are required to have relevant academic qualifications, and teaching experiences were viewed.

However, many individuals shy away from learning it, perceiving it as a daunting and challenging task. This research is aimed at enhancing grammar teaching by applying Grammar Wheel. It focuses on the active and passive voice mastery of three forms of tenses including simple past tense, past continuous tense, and past perfect tense. Conducted in one of the public Senior High Schools in Indonesia, this study was participated by 35 students and an English teacher. Having troubles in comprehending grammar, the teacher needed media and activities to deliver the grammar materials interestingly. Two cycles of Classroom Action Research (CAR) were implemented. The data were collected using observation sheets, field notes, video recordings, interview guidelines, and exercise sheets. The analysis was carried out qualitatively following the steps proposed by Cresswell (2012). The results revealed that language teaching had been successfully improved and students were more motivated to engage in the learning process being in a comfortable and supportive learning environment. Furthermore, learners’ knowledge in mastering the three types of tenses increased significantly as evidenced by their writing. Hence, the Grammar Wheel has proven to be an effective tool for teaching grammar in the classroom.

Published: July 2024

In social life, the need for medical workers is different in each region, because the population varies. If doctors cannot treat a large enough number of patients in an area, it can have various impacts on society, such as contracting dangerous diseases if not treated as soon as possible. The effect will be a decline in people's standard of living. By classifying the need for the number of health workers (doctors) relative to the population, the level of welfare in an area can be obtained. To assist in optimizing health workers (doctors) they can use fuzzy logic and ANFIS (Adaptive Neuro Fuzzy Inference System). By using ANFIS, it is hoped that we can find the optimal value for the classification of health workers that will be needed in each region. In the ANFIS test, the RMSE error value was 0.2698 and the first accuracy value was 73%. Then by adding a membership function, an RMSE error value of 0.17698 was obtained, this second accuracy value increased by 10% to 83%. By using the ANFIS method to classify health workers according to different population sizes in each region, you can measure the level of community welfare well.

Indramayu Regency in West Java has substantial potential in the tourism sector, which can bolster the region's economic growth. However, the dissemination of information about tourist attractions in Indramayu is limited, necessitating the creation of an application to simplify the search for tourism data and information. This study successfully designed and developed an Android-based mobile application named Wisayu using the Rapid Application Development (RAD) method to create a fast, efficient, and user-friendly app. The application was tested in two phases: alpha testing and beta testing. Alpha testing employed blackbox and whitebox methods, yielding valid results. Beta testing was divided into two parts: quantitative data analysis for validity and reliability testing, and descriptive statistical analysis using the User Experience Questionnaire (UEQ). The quantitative data analysis revealed that 22 out of 26 indicators were valid, with Pearson Product Moment correlation values exceeding the r table value of 0.33, while the remaining 4 indicators were below the r table value. The Cronbach's Alpha value for the 26 questionnaire items was 0.63, indicating good reliability. Descriptive statistical analysis showed positive evaluations in each UEQ dimension, with attractiveness scoring 1.32, pragmatic quality 1.63, and hedonic quality 1.11, demonstrating that the application was well-received by users.

Pengaruh Latihan dengan Pola Boomerang terhadap Peningkatan Keterampilan Dribbling dalam Permainan Sepakbola yang dilaksanakan di MTs Tonjongsari menunjukkan pada kondisi yang belum terlaksana dengan baik. Hal ini terjadi karena masih belum tersampaikannya dengan baik kepada siswa terkait dengan metode dribbling run sehingga dalam penerapannya banyak mengalami kendala yang meliputi belum tersampaikannya model boomerang run. Sehingga dengan adanya penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui apakah terdapat pengaruh latihan dengan pola boomerang terhadap peningkatan keterampilan dribbling dalam permainan sepakbola pada siswa ekstrakulikuler di Mts Tonjongsari. Penulis menggunakan metode eksperimen yaitu pre-experimental designs (nondesigns) dengan desain penelitian menggunakan desain one-group pretest-postest design. Adapun untuk temuan berdasarkan hasil penghitungan dapat diambil kesimpulan bahwa latihan dengan pola boomerang tidak meningkatkan keterampilan dribbling dalam permainan sepak bola siswa Mts Tonjongsari secara signifikan. Oleh karena itu diharapkan dengan terus menggunakan media pembelajaran yang kreatif dapat dipergunakan khususnya bagi para pemula dalam upaya meningkatkan keterampilan teknik dasar terutama dribbling permainan sepakbola. Kata Kunci: Latihan, Model Boomerang, Keterampilan, Dribbling, dan Sepakbola.
