Authors: Ahsanah Finaty , Utomo Dias Tiara Putri
Published: January 2021

This current study is aimed to know whether any improvement or not in using digital comics as the media on student’s English competence. The researchers used a quantitative approach with a pre-experimental design. This research was conducted at Universitas Muhammadiyah Lamongan and the sample was 42 pharmacist medical students. The instrument that was used to measure students’ English competence was the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL). The result of the test was analyzed by using statistical analysis of paired sample t-test. The finding showed that there was significant improvement before and after the treatment, it can be proved by the significant value of the pre and post-test which was 0.000 (2 tailed). Since the significance value (2-tailed) was less than 0.05, it means that the hypotheses of this study were accepted. In other words, the students positively received the use of digital comics for English learning activities. Therefore, digital comics can be assumed as an effective media or tool for enhancing students’ English competence.

Published: January 2021

Students in learning English grammar often experience difficulties, and are influenced by the first language, namely Indonesian. Students are influenced by the first language, Indonesian, in composing passive sentences and changing active sentences into passive sentences without first identifying the tense used. The students' difficulties in composing passive sentences resulted in difficulties in writing text properly. This is because most students do not understand how to change the active voice to the passive voice, use auxiliary verbs, and identify the tense. The study uses descriptive qualitative method that aims to analyze errors in the preparation of English passive sentences made by the 4th semester students of the English Education Study Program, Tadulako University. In arranging the passive form and which passive form is the most difficult for students to understand and after analyzing the students' mistakes in composing passive sentences, the researchers concluded that of the 50 students who became respondents, the problems that students make in composing passive sentences are 1) changing word order caused by not being able to distinguish between subject and object, 2) not understanding the tense used in active sentences resulting in a change in the auxiliary verb form, 3) reducing or eliminating one of the constituent elements passive, such as the BY preposition, auxiliary verb be, or the suffix –ED to the regular verb. 4) generalizing all passive sentence patterns. Type of error becoming the most dominant thing that students do in making noun clauses is misordering, which is changing the position of the subject and the object without considering the passive patterns and verbs that the sentence has. Next, the passive voice which is the most difficult for students to make is that they had difficulty in constructing passive sentences using the main sentence HAVE or GET followed by a non-finite verb (past participle).

Background

Public health emergencies such as the COVID-19 outbreak may impact on the incidence rate of ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) in severely affected areas. However, this phenomenon demands attention also in areas where media and patients were focused on the COVID-19 pandemic, but the healthcare system was not overwhelmed by the huge number of COVID-19 patients.

Methods and results

In this observational study, we compared the incidence rate of all consecutive STEMI patients admitted at the University Hospital of Trieste, Italy, during March and April 2020 with the same 2 months of the previous 5 years (2015–2019). Patient characteristics were compared between 2020 and 2019.

The incidence rate of STEMI admission in March–April 2020 was lower than those in March–April 2015–2019, 36 vs. 56 cases per 100 000 inhabitants/year [relative risk (RR) 0.65, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) 0.42–0.96, P = 0.045]. Considering that the incidence rates were constant in the past years (P = 0.24), the turnaround in 2020 is most likely due to the COVID-19 outbreak. Interestingly, this reduction was a dynamic phenomenon with a U-shaped curve during the 2-month period. System-of-care times were similar between 2020 and 2019; however in 2020, patients presented more frequently signs of heart failure compared to 2019 (Killip class ≥2 in 68% vs. 29%, P = 0.003).

Conclusion

During the COVID-19 outbreak, we observed a marked reduction in the STEMI incidence rate. This U-shaped phenomenon demands attention because a potential cause for the decrease in STEMI incidence may include the avoidance of medical care. Public campaigns aiming to increase awareness of ischemic symptoms may be needed during community outbreak.

Authors: Rahoyo Rahoyo , Prapti N.S.S. Rr. Lulus , Niati Asih
Published: January 2021

Salah satu tulang punggung revenue Go-jek adalah transaksi pembayaran Go-pay. Berbeda dengan bank di mana nasabah bisa dengan mudah menemukan kantor bank tempatnya menaruh uang; pada aplikasi Go-pay konsumen bahkan tidak tahu di mana kantor Go-pay. Mengapa para konsumen tersebut bersedia menaruh uang di aplikasi Go-pay tanpa mengetahui di mana kantor Go-pay bahkan juga tidak mengetahui bagaimana prosedur dan ke mana harus komplain bila sewaktu-waktu uang mereka di aplikasi Go-pay hilang?

Melalui pendekatan kualitatif penelitian ini menemukan bahwa trust atau kepercayaan bukanlah faktor utama yang membuat para konsumen tersebut bersedia menaruh uang di aplikasi Go-pay melainkan ketidakbernilaian (worthlessness).

Authors: Bassey Eyo Emmanuel , Edwin Ejesi
Published: January 2021

This article on Martin Luther King Jr examines the power of non-violence philosophy in conflict resolution. Before Luther King Jr philosophy of non-violence, Jesus Christ, Mahatma Gandhi, Leo Tolstoy and other advocates of peace had vigorously pursued non-violence as the only tenable and acceptable paradigm in conflict resolution. In this essay, Martin Luther King Jr. is shown to be deeply influenced by his moral and spiritual background upon which his father had endowed upon him. For Luther King Jr, the racial discrimination experienced in Montgomery can only be defeated by non-violence and nothing more, for violence begets violence upon which continuous use of violence leads to the vicious circle of violence. The essay concludes that human beings ought to use non-violence in conflict resolution especially in the face of dehumanization and racial discrimination

On the Origins of Authoritarian Islamic Regime Foundations in the Middle East: The Case of Iran
Authors: Telek Alphan
Published: January 2021

This article examines the way in which the Islamic regime in Iran was founded, what were the political and social conditions that convinced people for a regime change and, finally, what were the social consequences of and reactions to an authoritarian regime foundation in this country heavily populated by Muslims. This article argues that the experience of Iran provides a model framework to understand potential authoritarian Islamic regime foundations elsewhere. The article studies Iran’s contemporary political history in three phases: firstly, the socio-political atmosphere of the pre-revolutionary period, which could be deemed as preliminary years triggering the 1979 Islamic Revolution. Secondly, the period of the constitutive attempts towards an Islamic regime foundation through the 1980s is examined. Thirdly, the confrontation phase is probed where the social reactions against the Islamic regime foundation have taken place and increasingly intensified since the 1990s until now.

Amaç: Postmenopozal dönem kadınlarda yaşam kalitesinin yordayıcısı olarak kemik mineral yoğunluğu (KMY) ve ilişkili diğer faktörlerin araştırılması amaçlanmıştır.
Yöntem: Osteoporoz polikliniğinde takipli postmenopozal dönemde, kırığı olmayan 164 kadın çalışmaya dahil edildi. Katılımcıların demografik verileri, DEXA yöntemi ile belirlenen lomber vertebra (L1-4 total), femur boyun ve femur toplam KMY değerleri ve t skorları kaydedildi. Ayrıca katılımcıların yaşam kalitesi, kısa form-36 (KF-36) ve QUALEFFO-41 ölçekleri ile değerlendirildi. Dünya Sağlık Örgütü kriterlerine göre, aynı cins erişkinlerin ortalamasına göre L1-4 vertebra, femur boyun veya femur toplam bölgelerinden en az birinde t skoru≥-1,0 SS olanlar (normal KMY) ve t skoru<-1,0 SS olanlar (düşük KMY) olarak 2 grupta incelendi.
Bulgular: Normal KMY (DEXA t skor≥-1) değerine sahip olan 48 olgu ve düşük KMY (DEXA t skor<-1) değerine sahip olan 116 olgu tespit edildi. KF-36 ölçeğinin parametreleri arasında fiziksel rol kısıtlılığı (p=0,012) ve ruhsal rol kısıtlılığı (p=0,012) parametreleri açısından istatistiksel anlamlı fark tespit edildi. QUALEFFO-41 ölçeğine ait parametrelerin tamamının KMY normal olan grupta daha düşük olduğu ancak iki grup arasındaki farkın sadece ağrı, zihinsel işlev ve toplam puan parametrelerinde istatistiksel anlamlılığa ulaştığı tespit edildi (sırasıyla p=0,021, p=0,023, p=0,024).
Sonuç: Bu çalışmada, postmenopozal dönem kadınlarda da yaşam kalitesinin azalmış olduğu gösterilmiştir. Bu durumun tek öngörücüsünün KMY olmadığı, menopoz süresinin de yaşam kalitesini olumsuz etki edebildiği saptanmıştır.

Height is associated with more self-serving beliefs about wealth redistribution
Authors: Richardson Thomas
Published: January 2021

People vary widely in their attitudes towards how much their government should redistribute wealth. Evolutionary theory may shed light on why this variation occurs. Numerous studies have established an association between upper body strength and attitudes towards equality and wealth redistribution in males, showing that physically stronger men are more likely to hold self-serving beliefs on these issues. This effect is typically weaker or absent in women. A question that has received little attention is whether there are similar associations between other aspects of formidability and attitudes towards wealth redistribution. One such aspect is height. I tested this prediction using data from the European Social Survey, in a sample of 27031 people from 20 European countries. Results show that taller people are more likely to have self-serving attitudes towards government redistribution of wealth. The result was robust to numerous control variables and alternative model specifications, but the direct effects of height were small. Taller individuals were less supportive of government wealth redistribution overall, but were especially averse if they were also wealthier. Post-hoc analyses suggested that for lower income deciles, the association was reversed. For these people, there was a positive association between height and support for wealth redistribution. However, effects were equally strong in males and females, and so are not fully consistent with current evolutionary psychological theories of resource distribution.
The First Prior: from Co-Embodiment to Co-Homeostasis in Early Life

Published: January 2021

The idea that whatever we perceive now is influenced by whatever we perceived before lies at the core of Predictive Processing (PP) theories in philosophy and computational neuroscience. If this is so, then it becomes crucial to look at how perception, cognition and actions get off the ground from square one, in utero. Here we examine how humans self-regulate their homeostatic bodily states and build their most basic self- and world-model, literally through others’ bodies, in utero. Indeed, one basic yet overlooked aspect of current embodied and PP approaches is that brains (and minds), and human bodies, first develop within another human body. Crucially, while not all humans will have the experience of being pregnant or carrying a baby, the experience of being carried and growing within another person’s body is universal. Specifically, we define in utero development as a process co-embodiment and co-homeostasis, and highlight their close relationship. We show that the case of pregnancy offers a clear and fundamental example of co-embodiment, building upon theoretical and empirical work tackling the emergence of perceptual experiences in utero. We focus on pregnancy, a case where two individuating organisms literally grasp/ grip one into each other. Contrary to the common view of the foetus being passively ‘contained’ and solipsistically ‘trapped’ in the solitude of the womb, we will present evidence speaking in favour of an active and bidirectional co-regulation between the two living bodies, what we will call co-homeostasis. The co-embodiment and co-homeostasis theses will lay the preliminary ground for introducing a predictive processing reading of in utero development of perceptual experiences.We conclude that when it comes to understanding the nature of predictive perceptions, the infant is father to the human - to paraphrase the famous Wordsworth metaphor.
Water and Sanitation for Population Health and Wellbeing: The Nepalese Initiatives
Authors: Adhikari Keshab Prasad
Published: January 2021

A person's wellbeing is highly dependent on both the quality and the availability of water, and efficient management of this precious resource. Both biological disease agents and chemical pollutants are compromising drinking-water quality. Contaminated water causes a range of often life-threatening diseases. Of the waterborne diseases affecting a person's health, mostly children, the deadliest are diarrhoeal infections. To manage the supply of quality water with the required quantity, it needs proper policy and programme in place to ensure improved and total sanitation for public wellbeing. Though the implementation strategies are constrained by resource scarcity, poor designing, environmental catastrophes, Nepal has done ample policy and planning efforts in the water and sanitation sector.
Administrative Reforms and the Rule of Law
Authors: Babšek Matej , Tomaževič Nina , Kovač Polonca
Published: January 2021

Designing a public governance model suitable for a particular task often lacks an empirical basis for change and the criteria for evaluation. Hence, the paper analyses the case law following from the decisions of social work centres (SWC) in Slovenia in order to gain insight in the lawfulness of their work as a key component of the rule of law and thus pinpoint the optimal framework for improvements. Using quantitative and qualitative analyses of 213 higher court judgments issued in the course of five years, the paper examines, by means of content analysis, which elements of the rule of law are the most problematic in practice. There is special emphasis on lawfulness and equality in substantive terms and on fair trial in procedural terms. The case law following from the SWC cases in the highest courts in Slovenia is quite consistent, but it does reveal certain gaps. These gaps need to be bridged on both regulatory and implementation levels in terms of clearer and yet not too rigid rules, recognition of participative procedural standards, and more flexible organisation. The case law thus indicates options for legislative changes and administrative reforms of the Slovene welfare system and beyond.
