Authors: Del Prado Flores Rogelio , Arévalo Martínez Rebeca Iliana
Published: February 2025

Este texto presenta una investigación interdisciplinaria con base en una etnografía visual. Esta tuvo como objetivo problematizar los modos de resignificación cultural en los espacios urbanos, a partir de la organización de expresiones artísticas de baile de k-pop, por jóvenes de la Ciudad de México. Relacionamos lo anterior con el sentido que le otorgan a su identidad a partir del baile grupal. La metodología utilizada consistió en un registro etnográfico visual y entrevistas participativas con jóvenes bailarines de k-pop, en la Ciudad de México, en julio de 2023. En total se registraron 25 videos con cámara 360°, 10 sobre expresiones artísticas urbanas y 15 de las entrevistas a bailarines, hechas detalladamente. Entre los hallazgos destaca la expresión de los jóvenes que han encontrado en la música y el baile una forma de relacionarse con otros, así como resignificar su identidad y el espacio público al convertirlo en un escenario artístico.
Apuntes para un constitucionalismo del bien común
Authors: Sahuí Alejandro
Published: February 2025

En este texto se explora la noción de constitucionalismo del bien común y se examinan críticas al liberalismo que lo asocian al cambio climático, a la pobreza o a la desigualdad. Además, se expone la tragedia de los comunes de Hardin y Ostrom, que visibilizó la tensión entre intereses individuales y colectivos. A partir de ahí se revisa el constitucionalismo del bien común de Vermeule y se critica su déficit democrático por centrarse en fuentes tradicionales. Luego, se revisa el Ius Constitutionale Commune latinoamericano con Bogdandy, surgido a partir de un diálogo multinivel entre tribunales y sociedad, así como el texto de Ferrajoli: Por una Constitución de la Tierra: La humanidad en la encrucijada, que propone una esfera pública y un constituyente mundial con derechos y bienes fundamentales. Finalmente, se hacen algunas valoraciones comparativas.

Embodiment of language: theories, controversies and perspectives
Authors: Martynyuk Alla
Published: February 2025

Systematising advances of modern cognitive science I put forward a hypothesis that language functioning (in a situation of communication, ontogenesis and phylogenesis) is made possible due to intersubjective perceiving-feeling-understanding cross- and multimodal bodily experience which is a product of interiorising primarily iconic and indexical communicative interactions about different objects of perception in diverse situational contexts. The object of analysis is the nature of interrelation between the form, meaning and referent of a linguistic structure and its objective is explanation of this interrelation by different approaches of cognitive linguistics. On the grounds of the analysis of image-schemas as prospective experiential basis of language embodiment, I conclude that image-schemas are an instrument of individual cognition since they are covertly enacted representations and cannot be intersubjectively shared. I suggest that image-schemas are formed on the basis of overtly enacted mimetic schemas, which insures interiorisation of intersubjectively accessible bodily experience and creates the junction-point between the imitative (iconic) and the representational (symbolic). I claim that language can only be understood in the context of communication where the verbal action is an integral part of the communicative action enacted by multimodal means of exteriorising inner semantic-pragmatic structures – auditory (speech, intonation) and visual (facial expressions, articulation gestures, hand gestures, bodily movements) that function as intersubjectively accessible iconic and indexical scaffolding of meaning-making.
Linguistic-stylistic interpretation of the text: socio-cultural aspect
Authors: Pichtownikowa Lydia
Published: February 2025

The article is devoted to the study of the essence and content of the linguistic-stylistic interpretation of the fictional text, taking into account the socio-cultural factors reflected in the speech of the author and characters. The indicated approach to interpretation is demonstrated on the material of English, German, Arabic, Chinese and Japanese texts of fables and parables, which are fragmentarily presented based on the materials of individual creative projects of students of the Faculty of Foreign Languages (2023/24 academic year) during the special course «Socio-cultural dynamics of fictional text».

The texts of fables and parables are convenient for multifaceted interpretation, since fables and parables as a genre respond quickly to contemporary events, consider themes that reflect social problems of society and historical factors. Our correction of the materials of these projects complements the characteristics of the sociocultural factors of the interpretation given by the students. In the article, an analysis of linguistic and cultural and historical factors is added to the traditional scheme of linguistic and stylistic interpretation of the text, which are mainly manifested in the texts in the form of cultural codes, systematically interconnected and aimed at creating the main code of culture – spiritual. It has also been studied how the cultural codes express the intentions of the authors of the texts, the linear or non-linear perspective of the depiction in the texts of various events and their consequences. An example of a double, linear and non-linear perspective of the story in a fable is given, which contributes to the deepening of its main meaning, the reflection of the fundamental essence of a person. An example of a parable is also considered, in which the intentions of the author of the previous century (H. Kunert) are understandable in our time, but generate in us during reading a reaction that is not at all what the author could expect at the time.

Summarizing in a single article the analysis of fables, parables of different peoples clearly demonstrates the stability and universality of the set of cultural codes in the texts and the diversity of their expression in the plots. The perspective of the work is the further development and improvement of the scheme of interpretation of the fictional text in the linguistic and cultural aspect, the creation of a clear algorithm of interpretation, which can be displayed in a frame or a network graph.
The German specific emotion concept SEHNSUCHT and its equivalents in English-speaking cultures
Authors: Mizin Kostiantyn
Published: February 2025

The aim of the proposed article is to develop a technique that can be used to identify those emotion concepts (ECs) in the target cultures that most adequately convey the idea of fragments of the emotional world of representatives of the source cultures presented in specific concepts. The technique is tested on the example of the German specific EC sehnsucht, and the target culture is such a collective notion as “English-speaking cultures”, since there is no such concept in the English-speaking environment. Based on the definition analysis of the name of the EC sehnsucht – the lexeme Sehnsucht – its closest correspondences in English – longing, yearning, pining, craving, desire and wistfulness – have been identified. The disclosure of all semantic facets of the EC sehnsucht made it possible to “weed out” the ECs wistfulness, desire, craving and pining as those that demonstrate a lower level of equivalence compared to longing and yearning, which are the closest to sehnsucht in terms of content. The analysis of the frequency indices of conceptual proximates of the ECs sehnsucht, longing and yearning has revealed that in the pairs sehnsucht – longing and sehnsucht – yearning the similarity of semantic structures is 70 %, which indicates a rather high level of equivalence of these pairs. The comparison of the average values of the evaluation and intensity indicators of these three ECs revealed that longing and yearning represent more positive emotional experiences than sehnsucht. Mostly it concerns the EC yearning, which is both more positive and more intense. Therefore, it is longing that can be considered the EC in the English-speaking cultures and within their representatives that can evoke the most adequate idea of the emotional experience represented by the German EC sehnsucht.

Authors: Mohammed A. Elhaj , Ahmed Salem Akasha , Malik Farag Elmzughi
Published: February 2025

This paper presents exergy, exergoeconomic, and exergy cost sensitivity analyses of a cogeneration solar power plant cycle, along with a detailed parametric study based on Exergy Cost Theory. Mathematical models addressing mass, energy, exergy, and economic parameters were developed and presented. The thermodynamic properties and associated analyses were conducted using Thermax, Excel, and MATLAB Simulink software tools. The findings provide valuable benchmarks for evaluating the economic performance of the plant. Sensitivity and parametric analyses reveal that the exergoeconomic factor, total annual plant cost, and unit costs of work and steam increase with a higher interest rate, while they decrease as the annual operating hours rise. The solar direct steam generation analysis demonstrates that the exergoeconomic factor values are 0.64 in January and 0.34 in July, with corresponding total costs of $3010.4/hr and $5480/hr, respectively. These results offer significant insights into the parametric influences and their effects, providing practical guidance for site engineers and operators. This study highlights the interplay between energy, exergy, and cost, assisting professionals in optimizing plant performance while managing resource and economic trade-offs effectively.

Published: February 2025

Artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly becoming a valuable tool for detecting illegal activities and holding offenders accountable. Among the most advanced AI technologies, facial recognition is widely used by law enforcement agencies for crime detection and prevention. This study aims to (i) analyze the use of artificial intelligence in law enforcement and (ii) identify the drawbacks of AI. A total of 75 respondents were selected from Kanyakumari and Tirunelveli districts, using simple random sampling due to time constraints. Among the respondents, 38 were from Tirunelveli and 37 from Kanyakumari. The Garrett ranking method was employed to analyze the data. The study found that facial recognition ranked first with a Garrett score of 62.1, followed by language processing with a score of 58.97. The study concluded that facial recognition technology significantly improves the accuracy and efficiency of crime profiling, while language processing aids in overcoming language barriers during investigations.

Non-invasive neonatal golden hue detector
Authors: Pavithra S. , Boomika V. , Rabin R. , Mariya David Prakash P. , Surya Narayanan M.
Published: February 2025

Jaundice is a common neonatal condition that causes yellowing of the eyes and skin due to elevated pigment levels. Although several underlying disorders may contribute, the condition typically results from the immature liver function in newborns., Approximately 60% of babies experienced jaundice, leading to yellowing of the skin and eyes over the last five years. Due to improved screening and management procedures, the number of severe jaundice cases requiring treatment has decreased by about 20%. This condition generally resolves as the baby's liver matures and becomes more efficient at metabolizing the pigment. The "Golden Hue Detector," a non-invasive device specifically designed to detect neonatal jaundice, was developed and validated in this study. Early and accurate diagnosis of jaundice is crucial to prevent complications such as kernicterus. Traditional detection methods rely on blood tests, which can be stressful for infants and resource-intensive for healthcare providers. These methods typically require multiple blood draws, increasing the risk of infection and causing significant discomfort for newborns.
Enhancing engagement in nursing education: The impact of gamification on elearning modules
Authors: David Squires , Elizabeth Guerra
Published: February 2025

This study explores the integration of gamification within nursing eLearning modules at the College of Nursing and Health Sciences at a university in the southern United States. Recognizing engagement and retention challenges in online instruction, this study investigates gamification as a tool to enhance student engagement and practical skill development in remote learning environments. Using a mixed methods approach, this study examines the impact of gamified elements on student engagement, learning outcomes, and knowledge retention. Contrary to expectations, the findings show that although gamification can significantly enhance the eLearning experience, intrinsic or extrinsic motivation does not directly affect engagement or the overall effectiveness of gamified elements. This paper suggests a need for tailored gamification strategies to maximize its benefits across diverse student populations.
Hedging Strategies in Non-Science Theses: A Corpus-Based Analysis of Discussion Sections
Authors: Suratno Antonius , Aydawati Emilia  Ninik
Published: February 2025

This study aimed to investigate the academic writings of students, which were stored in the students' theses repository. The primary goal was to explore how students employ politeness and caution strategy, often referred to as academic hedging when articulating their academic opinions in Chapter IV of the discussion section within their theses. Utilizing a corpus-based approach, the study analyzed 30 theses comprising over 100,000 words. The Antconc electronic analysis application was deployed to identify patterns of sentence expression and explore how students employed hedging techniques to present their academic ideas. The results indicate that student writers tended to rely heavily on the modal "dapat" compared to other hedging devices, suggesting a potential lack of familiarity with diverse hedging methods and their appropriate use in academic writing. It is postulated that this overreliance on "dapat" might be attributed to limited exposure to alternative hedging devices in academic writing. This indicates a need for academic writing teachers in universities to equip students with comprehensive knowledge of hedges for more appropriate expression of academic ideas.

Discourse Markers in the Introductory Section of Research Articles in National accredited Journal
Authors: Fadilla Hilda , Widhiyanto  , Wahyuni Sri
Published: February 2025

Discourse markers provide writers with signaling devices to connect ideas and guide readers in grasping the connection of ideas in the texts. An introductory section of a journal article represents a unique text which should be written with clear and interconnected arguments. This paper aims to reveal how discourse markers play vital roles in realizing the development of the arguments in this knotty text.  To achieve this, introductory sections of articles published in a nationally accredited journal were examined. Using Fraser's (2009) functional classes of discourse markers, 22 introduction sections were analyzed employing text analysis to determine the usage of these markers. It was found that despite employing all types of discourse markers, not all of them were applied appropriately. Their uses may not be in line with their functional classification. Among others, there are three functional classes of discourse markers proposed by Fraser (2009), they are contrastive markers, elaborative markers, and inferential markers. Elaborative markers were the most used type among the different types, followed by contrastive and inferential markers. This implies that authors tended to develop ideas more often, whereas contrastive and inferential markers were used less frequently but were crucial for indicating differences and making conclusions within the texts.

Authors: Prince Emi J. , Seshan Vidya , Raghavan Divya , Francis Frincy , Matua Gerald A. , Abuhammad Sawsan
Published: February 2025

This study evaluated the effectiveness of the open glottis breathing technique during the second stage of labor among 600 primigravida women, randomly assigned to either an open glottis group (n=300) or a closed glottis group (n=300). Participants in the open glottis group received training via 3D animated videos. Results demonstrated a significant impact on perineal integrity, with 20.7% of women in the experimental group reporting an intact perineum compared to just 1.7% in the control group. Additionally, the open glottis group experienced shorter labor durations and a decrease in severe neonatal asphyxia, as indicated by improved APGAR scores compared to the closed glottis group. Statistical analysis using the χ² test revealed a highly significant difference in perineal conditions between the two groups, with a χ² value of 65.7 (p < 0.000). The study also identified a significant association between maternal age, residence, and income with the reduction of perineal tears (p < 0.000). Overall, the findings suggest that the modified open glottis breathing technique effectively prevents perineal trauma, shortens the duration of the second stage of labor, and enhances neonatal outcomes. These results highlight the potential benefits of integrating this technique into labor management practices to improve maternal and neonatal health.

The physical and mental health of the general people was seriously endangered by the advent of coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19). The purpose of this study was to assess the psychological well-being of people during the pandemic using stressors related to COVID-19 that produce dread, obsessions, and anxiety, ultimately leading to a scenario of collective trauma. This study adopted a qualitative methodology that focuses on a thorough justification of the events. It made use of a focused ethnographic design, a kind of ethnography that gathers information about a particular social phenomenon in a specific cultural setting from a variety of sources. Statistics were gathered in the Pakistani province of Punjab city of Faisalabad. We used the purposive random selection strategy to pick our interlocutors. 321 in-depth interviews and three online focus groups were done by us (FGDs). Although qualitative data was sorted into themes for additional research analysis, quantitative data was run via Excel to produce frequency distribution. It was investigated how trauma stresses might cause emotional discomfort such as boredom, loneliness propensity, future anxiety, and financial instability. Social media's COVID-19-related impact on mental and psychological health was detrimental. Using the explorative study approach, all these trauma determinants are investigated.

EXPLORING THE COLLECTIVE UNCONSCIOUS: JUNGIAN ARCHETYPES IN ARAVIND ADIGA’S THE WHITE TIGER
Authors: Khare Somya , Purwar Pratima
Published: February 2025

This study explores the Archetypal dimensions of Aravind Adiga’s novel The White Tiger and its cinematic adaptation through the lens of Carl Jung’s Archetypal theory. Focusing on the archetypes of the Hero and Antihero, The Trickster, and The Shadow, the research examines how Balram Halwai’s transformation embodies the paradox of heroism and moral ambiguity. By analysing Balram’s journey from servitude to self-liberation, the study interrogates his dual role as both a heroic liberator and a morally transgressed antihero. The trickster archetype, symbolized in Balram’s cunning and deception, is evaluated in the context of his navigation through India’s socio-economic hierarchies, exposing systemic corruption and social mobility constraints. Additionally, the concept of the shadow, both in Balram’s psyche and in the broader socio-political landscape, is explored to understand his inner conflict and moral evolution. The paper also critically contrasts the representation of these archetypes in the novel and its Netflix film adaptation (2021) to analyse shifts in narrative emphasis and visual storytelling. By integrating Jungian archetypal criticism with a comparative media analysis, this research underline how The White Tiger deconstructs conventional hero narratives, challenging the binaries of good and evil, servitude and rebellion, morality and survival.

Kegiatan pengabdian ini bertujuan untuk mengevaluasi tingkat kelelahan pekerja bengkel di Pulau Lombok menggunakan metode Fatigue Assessment Scale (FAS). Kegiatan pengabdian ini melibatkan sepuluh responden dengan berbagai latar belakang demografi seperti usia, jenis kelamin, pendidikan, status pernikahan, lama kerja, dan pengalaman kecelakaan. Hasil kegiatan menunjukkan bahwa terdapat variasi tingkat kelelahan di antara para pekerja, di mana empat dari sepuluh responden memiliki skor kelelahan tinggi, sedangkan sisanya memiliki skor kelelahan rendah. Analisis data menunjukkan bahwa faktor usia, lama kerja, dan status pernikahan memiliki pengaruh signifikan terhadap tingkat kelelahan. Pemilik bengkel dengan pengalaman kerja panjang cenderung memiliki skor kelelahan yang tinggi, demikian pula dengan pegawai muda dengan lama kerja yang cukup panjang. Temuan ini menekankan pentingnya pengaturan jam kerja dan waktu istirahat yang optimal untuk mengurangi tingkat kelelahan dan meningkatkan produktivitas serta kesejahteraan pekerja. Studi ini merekomendasikan penerapan kebijakan manajemen kelelahan yang efektif di sektor industri bengkel, termasuk pelatihan kesehatan dan keselamatan kerja, serta evaluasi rutin terhadap kondisi kerja para pekerja. Dengan demikian, diharapkan dapat tercipta lingkungan kerja yang lebih sehat dan produktif bagi para pekerja bengkel di Pulau Lombok.

Understanding First-Generation Alums Engagement
Authors: Toney Allison K.
Published: February 2025

Abstract: As first-generation college students (FGCS) become alums, will their degree-granting institution continue to function as a network to people and opportunities? FGCS may face the unknown or a loss of resources as they transition into post-graduate life and they may feel relatively alone simply by virtue of being “first in their family” (Olson, 2016). Institutions of higher education are continuing to find ways to stay relevant and integral parts of their graduates’ lives through alum engagement. This qualitative, exploratory case study interviewed twenty-three first-generation alums to better understand how they described their alum network and the relationship with their degree-granting institution post-graduation. The findings in this study revealed that participants did not see how their university or alum network supported them post-graduation. Similarly, the results from this study found that alums had a lack of knowledge regarding which services were available to them, universities were unaware of what alums needed from their network, and alums were generally concerned that they had to initiate engagement. These findings suggest that colleges and universities must design engagement opportunities specifically for first-generation alums and continue to educate and bring awareness to alum engagement.

This comprehensive review examines the complex relationship between healthcare procurement processes and health insurance policies within the Medicare and Medicaid systems in the United States. The study analyzes how procurement strategies influence healthcare delivery, cost management, and patient outcomes while considering the intricate policy frameworks governing these public insurance programs. Through analysis of existing literature, policy documents, and administrative data, this review identifies key challenges and opportunities at the intersection of procurement and insurance administration. The research reveals significant variations in procurement practices across states and their impact on healthcare access, quality, and cost-effectiveness. Notable findings include the critical role of value-based purchasing initiatives, the influence of formulary management on pharmaceutical procurement, and the evolving landscape of managed care contracting. The study also highlights the importance of data integration and technological infrastructure in improving procurement efficiency and insurance administration. The findings suggest that optimizing the alignment between procurement strategies and insurance policies could significantly enhance healthcare delivery efficiency while maintaining program sustainability.
Exploring event-driven architecture in microservices- patterns, pitfalls and best practices
Authors: Ashwin Chavan
Published: February 2025

Event-driven architecture (EDA) solves architectural problems when an application responds to events, which are actual occurrences or changes in status that can happen quickly, can be large-scale, and require vast flexibility and elasticity. It proves highly useful in microservices, which consist of components that operate autonomously and use asynchronous messaging to work more effectively and efficiently. In a microservices architecture, EDA stands for Event Driven Architecture, which helps to achieve loose coupling between the services so that many components of the system work in parallel, thus minimizing the chances of bottleneck formation in the system. This paper aims to present the potential and realization of EDA integration with microservices and discuss the advantages of microservices, such as scalability, flexibility, and fault tolerance ability. Nevertheless, it also solves problems such as whether distributed services are homogeneous, debugging difficulties often occurring, and even a proposal for event tracing. This paper aims to dissect certain patterns like publish-subscribe, event sourcing, and the saga pattern, as well as the best practices when it comes to implementation, to ensure that the complexity of handling events is adequately handled. It also looks at EDA's challenges, especially in handling service conversations and guaranteeing consistent finality. Therefore, this paper seeks to expose organizations to EDA's design principles and patterns. The insight gained could help them design systems that reflect the dynamism and resilience required for today's distributed environment. By understanding the strengths of EDA and its weaknesses, organizations will be able to identify best practices for implementing this architecture to enhance the quality, opacity, and elasticity of their microservices-based applications.

The low knowledge ability of students affects learning outcomes. Students need teaching modules that are directly related to their surrounding environment so that they can stimulate and stimulate student learning activities. The purpose of this research is to produce a geography learning module based on Gorontalo local wisdom with a focus on disaster material. Gorontalo local wisdom is an idea in the form of customs, rules, culture, language, beliefs and daily habits; this needs to be taught to students, especially the Gorontalo community in mitigating disasters. Research and development method. researchers use research and development steps according to Thiagarajan (1974) which is abbreviated as 4D, namely define, design, development and dissemination. The results of the validity of the Gorontalo local wisdom-based disaster mitigation geography teaching module from the aspects of content feasibility, graphical presentation, language with a very valid category. This shows that the module that has been developed has qualifications worth using.
Wetlands: crucial ecosystem service providers: A contemporary review
Authors: Sonia  , Kumari Sita  , Vaneet Kumar
Published: February 2025

Wetlands occupy the transitional interface between aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems, globally distributed from polar tundra to tropical zones, excluding Antarctica. Water is the primary determinant of wetland environments, influencing their diverse flora and fauna. Classified broadly into types such as peatlands, rivers, mangrove forests, and others, wetlands are renowned for their productivity and biodiversity. They deliver a wide range of ecosystem services and economic benefits, including flood control, water filtration, landscape aesthetics, climate moderation, and cultural enrichment through recreational and heritage activities. Supporting diverse biological communities, wetlands harbor significant concentrations of birds, mammals, reptiles, amphibians, fish, insects, and plant genetic resources like rice. Their adaptive capacity to environmental change is critical for human communities and wildlife alike, ensuring health, welfare, and safety benefits. Despite their vital role, wetland ecosystem services remain inadequately quantified due to biophysical measurement limitations, highlighting research gaps. Comparable to rainforests and coral reefs in productivity, wetlands provide essential services at no direct cost, including disease regulation, carbon sequestration, and natural resource provisioning. Protecting wetlands safeguards these invaluable services, underpinning their significance in sustaining ecosystems and human well-being. This review aims to elucidate wetland types, ecosystem services, and current research gaps, emphasizing their indispensable role as natural assets.
