Enderunlu Râsih Divanı’nda Klasik Dönem Sonrası Osmanlı Şiirindeki Değişimin Yansımaları
Authors: TAŞTAN Erdoğan
Published: August 2018

Klasik Türk şiiri, şekil ve muhteva özellikleri

bakımından sınırları kesin olarak çizilmiş, belli kurallar çerçevesinde gelişen

bir şiirdir ve bu özelliğini uzun yıllar boyunca devam ettirmiştir. Ancak 18.

ve özellikle de 19. yüzyılda şiirin önce muhteva sonra da şekil unsurlarında

bazı değişimlerin meydana geldiği ve artık klasik sonrası bir döneme girildiği

görülür. Mahallileşme akımının etkisi ile somut gerçekliğin şiire girmesi,

kelime kadrosu ve mazmun anlayışındaki değişim ve şairlerin klasik konuların

dışına çıkarak farklı konulara yer vermeleri muhtevayı; divan tertibinin

değişmesi, mesnevi ve kaside gibi nazım şekillerine rağbet azalırken bentli

nazım şekillerine ve kıt‘alara rağbetin

artması, vezin, kafiye ve redif gibi şekle ait unsurların kesin kurallarının zaman

zaman ihlal edilmesi ise şekli ilgilendiren önemli değişim unsurları olarak

değerlendirilebilir. 19. yüzyıl şairlerinden Enderunlu İbrâhim Râsih (ö.1838)

de şiirlerinde bu değişimin izlerinin en çok görüldüğü şahsiyetlerden biridir.

Aynı zamanda iyi bir mûsikişinâs olan şairin bilinen tek eseri elimizde dört

nüshası bulunan Divan’ıdır. Bu nüshaların hiçbirinde klasik divan

tertibi yoktur. Nüshaların tamamının gelenekten farklı olarak bentli nazım

şekilleriyle başladığı ve aynı nazım şekilleriyle yazılmış şiirlerin Divan’da

farklı yerlerde bulunduğu görülür. Gemicilik, okçuluk ve mûsiki terimlerini

ihtiva eden şiirlerin farklı nazım şekilleriyle yazılmış olsalar da art arda

gelmeleri dikkate alındığında Enderunlu Râsih Divanı’nın tertibinde nazım

şeklinin değil, konunun belirleyici olduğu söylenebilir. Eserde yer alan Ebyât

Der-Ta‘dâd-ı Makâmât başlıklı şiir, bir kanarya kuşu için yazılmış mersiye,

gölge oyunu için yazılmış perde gazeli, Mahallileşmenin etkisiyle bazı

şiirlerde konuşma diline ait ifadelerin yer alması, redif olarak bazen yansıma

kelimelerin kullanımı, yer yer klasik mazmun anlayışından uzaklaşarak yeni

mazmun ve hayallere yer verilmesi, Enderunlu Râsih Divanı’nı klasik Osmanlı

şiirinden farklı kılan unsurların başında gelir. Bu çalışmada bu ve benzeri

unsurlar örnekleriyle birlikte ele alınıp değerlendirilecektir.
Kuloğlu Şeyh Hacı İlyas'ın Dîvân-ı Mesâbih Adlı Eseri Üzerine Bir Değerlendirme
Authors: ADIGÜZEL Niyazi
Published: August 2018

Kuloğlu Şeyh Hacı İlyas [?–1657/1658], şuara

tezkirelerinde adı hiç geçmeyen, 17.yüzyılın ikinci yarısında yaşamını

sürdürmüş ve çok sayıda eserler vermiş bir Klasik Türk Edebiyatı şairidir.

Halvetiyye tarikatının Ahmediyye kolunun Uşşâkiyye şubesine bağlı bir şeyh

olması ve mutasavvıf kişiliği gereği yazdığı eserler de dinî-tasavvufî

içeriklidir. Çok sayıda manzume içeren eserleri şunlardır: Mevlid-i Nebî,

Etvâr-ı Seb’a, Silsile-nâme, Dîvân-ı Hümâyûn, Bâğ-ı Behişt ve Dîvân-ı Mesâbîh.

Bu çalışmada ele aldığımız Divân-ı Mesâbih, İslam âleminde meşhur olan Ferrâ

el-Begavî [ö. 516/1122] tarafından kaleme alınmış Mesâbîhü’s-Sünne adlı hadis

kitabının Âlim Sinan Efendi tarafından Türkçeye tercüme edilen metninden

seçilmiş hadislerin manzum olarak tercüme edilmiş şeklidir. Eserdeki şiirler

kaside nazım şekliyle yazılmıştır. Kasidelerin revi harflerine göre alfabetik

olarak tertip edilen eser, klasik tertip usulüne uygun olarak tevhid, münâcât,

naat, dört halife methi ve Sultan IV. Murad methi manzumeleriyle başlamaktadır.

Geri kalanı muhtelif hadislerin açıklaması olan manzumelerden oluşmaktadır.

Eserde önce söz başlarına tercümesi yapılacak hadisler yazılıp sonra 20

beyitlik bir kasideyle ilgili hadisin tercümesi/açıklaması yapılmıştır. Her bir

hadis için ayrı bir kaside yazılmıştır. Oldukça hacimli olan eserde yaklaşık

8.500 beyit bulunmaktadır. Türk Edebiyatında manzum kırk hadis tercümeleri

sıklıkla kaleme alınmıştır ancak Kuloğlu gibi bütün bir divanın hadislerin

tercüme edildiği yirmişer beyitlik şiirlerden oluştuğu bir örnek

bulunmamaktadır. Bu yönüyle eser dikkate değer sıra dışı bir örnek teşkil

etmektedir.
Bir Çeviri Etiği Dersine Doğru
Authors: TELLİOĞLU Banu
Published: August 2018

Çeviri

etiğine duyulan ilginin özellikle son 20 yıldır artmakta olduğunu söyleyebiliriz.

Bu ilginin en temel göstergeleri, çeviri etiğinin bir meslek etiği gibi

algılanması gerektiği yolundaki düşüncelerin hem çeviribilimciler hem de sektör

temsilcileri tarafından giderek daha sıklıkla dile getirilmesi ve farklı meslek

örgütleri tarafından yazılan meslek ilkelerinin sayısındaki ciddi artıştır.

Çeviri etiğine duyulan ilginin yansımalarını çeviri eğitimi alanında da görmek

mümkündür. Dünyada ve Türkiye’de çeviri etiği dersi yavaş yavaş çeviribilim

bölümlerinin lisans müfredatlarında yerini almaktadır. Bunlar olumlu gelişmeler

olmakla beraber, daha yeni yeni yaygınlaşmaya başlayan bu derslerin amaç,

kapsam ve yöntemleri üzerine çok kapsamlı tartışmaların bulunmaması ve

özellikle de farklı alanlarda çalışan çevirmenler için o alanlara özgü ve

giderek daha kapsayıcı meslek ilkeleri yazma eğilimi dikkate alındığında,

çeviri etiği eğitimi bağlamında olası bir tehlikeden söz etmek mümkündür: Çeviri

eğitimcilerinin, meslek ilkelerini öğrencilere belleterek daha ahlaklı

çevirmenler yetiştirebilecekleri inancıyla çeviri etiği derslerini meslek

ilkeleri odağında yürütmeleri. Bu bildirinin amacı çeviribilim bölümlerinde

lisans müfredatına yerleştirilecek bir çeviri etiği dersinde sözü edilen

tehlikeden nasıl kaçınabileceğimizi araştırmaktır. Bu doğrultuda öncelikle

çeviri etiği alt alanının kapsamına değinilecek ve meslek ilkeleri

doğrultusunda hareket etmenin çevirmeni niçin ahlaklı bir birey yapmaya

yetmeyeceği üzerinde durulacaktır. Daha sonra, lisans müfredatlarına

yerleştirilecek bir çeviri etiği dersinin amaç ve kapsamı ve bu derste

kullanılabilecek yöntemler tartışılacak, böylelikle özgürleştirici, çevirmenin

bireysel sorumluluklarının altını çizen bir çeviri etiği dersinin genel

çerçevesi belirlenmeye çalışılacaktır.

Çocuk yazını çevirisi
araştırmalarının çoğu, ya çevirinin müdahaleci yönünün izlerini sürmekte ya da
çeviriyi yerlileştirme-yabancılaştırma stratejileri ekseninde
değerlendirmektedir. Çocukların hedeflendiği ancak büyükler tarafından yazılan
ve yönlendirilen bu alt-türde, kültürler arasındaki pedagojik yaklaşım farkları
ve çocuk eğitimi bağlamındaki farklılıklar çevirmenlerin çeviri süreci
kararlarını da etkilemektedir. Bunu göz önünde bulundurursak, çevirmenin bir
ideolojiyi önceleme niyetinde olmadığı zamanlarda bile kaynak ve erek metinler
arasında işlevsel farklılıklar ortaya çıkabileceği sonucuna ulaşırız. Bu çalışma, Julia
Donaldson’ın “The Paper Dolls” adlı resimli çocuk kitabıyla Sevgi Atlıhan
tarafından yapılan çevirisini işlevler bakımından karşılaştırmaktadır.
Öncelikle çocuk yazınının işlevleri ve çeviri çocuk yazını eleştirisine güncel
yaklaşımlar araştırılmış, bu doğrultuda kaynak metin biçem ve işlev odakları
bakımından incelenmiştir. Sonrasında erek metinden örneklerle işlevin nasıl
dönüştüğü ve bu farkların nelerden kaynaklanmış olabileceği
değerlendirilmiştir. Julia Donaldson’ın duygusal gelişimi destekleyici,
eğlendirici, hayal gücünü besleyici işlevleri erek metinde eğitici, öğretici,
bilgilendirici işlevlere dönüşmüş ve kaynak metin yazınsal karmaşıklığından
arındırılmıştır.

Remedies for three common issues in meta-analysis
Authors: Quintana Daniel S
Published: August 2018

Meta-analysis has become a popular tool to synthesise data from a body of work investigating a common research question. Combining several effect sizes facilitates the estimation of a summary effect size. As this provides a putatively objective means of summarising a body of data, it has become the gold standard for evidence when developing health guidelines. However, there are several issues in meta-analysis that can contribute to inaccuracies. This article briefly outlines three common issues in meta-analysis and offers some remedies for these problems.
An old- new presentation of categorical syllogisms
Authors: Radulescu Dan Constantin
Published: August 2018

One recognizes five types of pairs of categorical premises (PCPs) – only three out of the five types entail logical conclusions (LCs) and thus generate valid categorical arguments (VCAs), some of which are the usual valid syllogisms (VSs). (George Boole and Lewis Carroll obtained these results.) One argues, (using set relabelings), that all VCAs of the same type are equivalent. (This result was stressed out by L. Carroll in his Symbolic Logic book.) As a consequence, Barbara, Darii and Darapti may be chosen as the representatives of the three types of VCAs. One generalizes the three PCP types to sorites that entail an LC. (Again, L. Carroll dealt with such generalizations.) All the above results are obtained on a set model for the terms appearing in the PCPs or sorites. In the case of n-1 premises containing n terms, the modeling universal set U is partitioned in 2n subsets, and any LC pinpoints to just one of these 2n subsets. Thus, in particular, for categorical syllogisms, n=3, (where the three syllogistic terms are denoted S,P,M, and their complementary sets in U are S',P',M'), the middle term M, (or M'), is very much part of the LC, and eliminating the middle term from the LC weakens the conclusion which will then refer to two of the 8 subsets partitioning U. To make M and M' appear in a symmetric way in the PCPs, one extends the number of PCPs to 64 from the usual 36 - where the A,E,O,I quantifiers are applied only to the terms S,P,M. Consequently, the eight M-P premises form a cube of opposition, and the eight M-S premises form another cube of opposition.
Bendy ARM 2.0: Continuum Arm Manipulator Refinement and Control for Assistive Technology
Authors: Swanson Emily , Metevier Samantha , Sneller Kayla , Berg Devin R.
Published: August 2018

Rigid link robots currently dominate the market for manipulators in assistive technology, though research on continuum robots for assistive technology has been developing over recent years. These types of robots have a continuous backbone that allows them to have infinite degrees of freedom, making them highly compliant, however this brings challenges in terms of modelling and control. Additionally, materials for this type of application require specific qualities. In this work, we attempt to address these problems while designing a continuum arm suitable for assistive technology applications. Bendy ARM 2.0 is a revised version of the first Bendy ARM robot to accomplish these goals. In its first iteration, Bendy ARM had limitations in its mechanical function, such as the structural performance of the backbone, which decreased the accuracy in positional control. Nitinol was tested as a new backbone material but failed during testing so a low density polyethylene was chosen. Cable conduits were added to help reduce the mechanical coupling between the proximal and distal segments of the manipulator. Motion processing units (MPU) are utilized to gather tilt angles and provide direction for automated movements. Due to the arms natural rotation, this data alone was not enough to consistently control and place the robot. With the information gathered, further consideration of backbone material and usage of MPU data is required for an automatable robot.
IMPLEMENTASI PENJAMINAN MUTU DALAM MENGHADAPI GLOBALISASI, ANALISIS DAN IMPLIKASI:STUDI KASUS
Authors: Panday Rorim
Published: August 2018

Globalisasi mengharuskan kualitas yang tinggi yang diharapkan oleh para pelanggan, karena itu merupakan tolok ukur dalam mempertahankan kesetiaan pelanggan. Disisi lain untuk mempertahankan hidupnya suatu organisasi atau perusahaan, baik oganisasi profit dan non profit dalam lingkungan industri produk dan industri jasa. Untuk menjaga kualitas tersebut dibutuhkan penjaminan mutu yang konsisten integritasnya dan dilaksanakan secara periodik, tidak terkecuali institusi pendidikan. Program studi merupakan satu bagian program pendidikan dari beberapa program yang ada di institusi Perguruan tinggi. Keberadaan program studi merupakan ujung tombak dari sistem produksi di perguruan tinggi. Oleh sebab itu pengelolaan program studi yang bermutu harus dilaksanakan dengan baik sesuai dengan kebutuhan pasar dan peraturan yang telah ditetapkan oleh regulator. Semakin tinggi mutu yang dicapai oleh program studi, semakin tinggi pula penilaian dari regulator yang dikenal dengan akreditasi. Pelaksanaan program studi di Indonesia harus mengacu pada Standar Nasional Pendidikan Tinggi (SNPT) yang dikeluarkan oleh Kementerian Pendidikan dan kebudayaan. SNPT ini dibuat untuk menjamin pelaksanaan pendidikan di program studi telah memenuhi standar yang disyaratkan, yang pada akhirnya menghasilkan lulusan yang bermutu. Untuk memudahkan dalam mengevaluasi pelaksanaan program studi, maka dibuatlah instrumen Evaluasi Mutu Internal (EMI) yang mengacu pada SNPT. Di dalam EMI, standar pendidikan tersebut dibuat menjadi 11 standar yaitu: standar isi, standar proses, standar kompetensi lulusan, standar pendidikan dan tenaga kependidikan, Standar sarana dan prasarana, standar pengelolaan, standar pembiayaan, standar penilaian, standar penelitian, standar pengabdian pada masyarakat dan standar kerjasama. Penilaian standar tersebut mengggunakan skala yang diadopsi dari Asian Network University (AUN) yaitu skala 1 sampai 7. Pelaksanaan EMI dilakukan oleh penyelenggara pendidikan tinggi secara mandiri. Penelitian ini adalah penelitian kualitatif dilakukan dengan cara Focus Group Discussion (FGD). Temuan hasil Evaluasi Mutu Internal menunjukkan bahwa di dalam pelaksanaan program studi masih terdapat beberapa kekurangan yaitu pada standar pembiayaan, standar penelitian, standar pengabdian pada masyarakat dan standar kerja sama. Untuk selanjutnya, hasil dari EMI ini dapat digunakan sebagai acuan untuk perencanaan pengembangan mutu pendidikan dari program studi untuk satu tahun ke depan guna menuju pada tingkat akreditasi yang direncanakan.

This review looks positively on David Krasner’s expansive and in-depth A History of Modern Drama: Volume II: 1960–2000. Krasner’s book is important for the ways in which he eschews the debate on where modern drama ends and contemporary drama begins. Instead, he persuasively categorizes dramatic eras according to the differing techniques found in modernism and postmodernism.

The Racial Unconsciousness of the Parisian Public Theatre: Borders and Demotions in Francophone Contemporary Drama
Authors: Rauer Selim
Published: August 2018

This article analyses the impact of France’s colonial heritage on French and Parisian public theatre. Theatrical programming corresponds to an imaginary still structured by a cultural and social construction of race that reflects the past of the “Grande Nation.” Three different plays by Ivorian dramatist Koffi Kwahulé are examined, each depicting situations of demotion experienced by French citizens of foreign origin. I argue that the way French public theatre is structured and administered today mirrors, to a certain extent, real situations of tension reflecting the disparities between the “centres” (symbols of power and homogeneity) and the “peripheries” (socio-economic and cultural spaces of relegation structured by a racial imaginary). I also analyse the concept of the border as a geographic, economic, and sociocultural paradigm, allowing us to understand, in the French and francophone contexts, what unites and divides – or more accurately, how francophone writers and French writers of foreign origin can still be condemned in the twenty-first century to a sort of exile from metropolitan Paris, the capital of a Jacobin state.
O DIREITO DE AÇÃO COMO INSTRUMENTO DE TUTELA DOS DIREITOS HUMANOS
Authors: Guerra Sidney , Figueira Tonetto Fernanda
Published: August 2018

As teorias da ação podem ser abordadas no quadro da evolução estatal, dentro de sua concepção de função protetiva dos direitos fundamentais constitucionalmente assegurados, mas igualmente centrando-se no estudo da evolução da concepção de jurisdição internacional e da própria ideia de indivíduo como sujeito de direito internacional, para então compreender de que forma se estabelece e se consolida o direito de ação nas Cortes internacionais, que acabam por identificar direitos fundantes que se sobrelevam a qualquer espécie de relativismo. É nesse sentido que o direito de ação pode ser abordado enquanto direito instrumental garantidor da existência de um núcleo mínimo de direitos humanos, chegando mesmo a ser pensado como um direito universal.

Published: August 2018

In this article was considered main approaches of different authors to the definition of "forsight". On the basis of the investigated approaches and developed taking into account modern trends was created own authors� interpretation of the term �foresight�. It was highlighted that foresight and expert forecast not identity terms. The main features of foresight which distinguish it from expert forecasting were highlighted. The authors considered the essence of the key principles of foresight, namely the focus on the future and the perspective directions of its development, involving a wide range of participants and creating a network of knowledge, planning and policy formation of the enterprise. The article proposed to consider foresight as a predictive, scenario and analytical component of the diagnostics of the marketing policy of the enterprise. Also, the article proposed the definition of "diagnostics of marketing policy of the enterprise". It was highlighted 3 main groups of methods of diagnostics of marketing policy: marketing research methods, mathematical and statistical methods, methods of research of strategic and operational marketing activities. The place of foresight in the system of tools of diagnostics of the marketing policy of the enterprise was investigated. In addition, the main features of the Ukrainian economy that will affect the process of implementation of foresight, namely the instability of the political situation affecting the country's socio-economic development, the use of mostly traditional marketing tools, low propensity to use innovative technologies, the inability to make too long-term forecasts (more 10 years), which is connected with the unstable situation in the country.

Authors: Nawaz Fahim , Inam Kalsoom , Shaheen Shagufta
Published: August 2018

This paper traces the working of various local governments within the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province of Pakistan in terms of efficiency while providing health and educational facilities. Only those districts of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa having a population of at least one million, were taken into account. The performance of six district local governments in the field of education and health was thoroughly analyzed. The main focus was to assess whether local governments were efficient in the provision of the required services or otherwise. In the context of this study, local governments were perceived as firms, each aiming at the efficient provision and welfare of their respective communities / localities. Annual time-series data for the period 2004 to 2015 was taken. The study revealed the performance and efficiency of each of the selected district governments. The study also confirmed the validity of the Tiebout Hypothesis in terms of the local governments of KP in relevance to the provision of health and educational services. The district government primarily revolves around the needs and aspirations of the common people. This system can perform better if properly implemented and monitored in light of the gross root level input.

The 9/11 was a paradigm shifting event in the international and global politics. On September 11, 2001, two jet planes hit the twin's tower in United States of America (USA). US official authorities said that it is done by alQaeda. This event also changes Pakistan's internal and foreign policies. The government of United States compel Afghan Taliban government to handover the master mind of 9/11 attack and their leader Osama bin Laden but the talks failed between the both governments. Therefore US government compel the government of Pakistan to give us Military bases and assistance against Afghan Taliban. Pakistan agreed with US as frontline ally of US in war on terror. The majority of Pakistani people were not happy with the decision, therefore, some non-state actors appeared in different part of the country especially in Malakand Division and FATA to support Taliban regime in Afghanistan. In Malakand Division Mulana Sufi Muhammad head of Tehrik Nifaz-e-Shariat-e-Muhammadi started a proper armed campaign for Afghan Taliban Support and sent thousands of people to Afghanistan support Taliban against US and their allied forces. It was a basic reason behind the emergence of terrorism in Malakand division KP but it did not played it role alone to cause terrorism in the region. Many other important factors i.e. weak political administration, unemployment, economic deprivation, socio-political instability constituted the main reason that opened room for non-state actors to consolidate their grip on the region.

Published: August 2018

Citra medis memegang peranan yang sangat penting dalam dunia medis saat ini. Biasanya citra medis membutuhkan penyimpanan yang cukup besar pada komputer. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk melakukan kompresi pada citra medis menggunakan wavelet packet transform (PWT) dan run length encoding (RLE). Tiga jenis codec yaitu Haar, Daubechies dan Biorthogonal digunakan dalam penelitian ini. Penelitian ini membandingkan rasio kompresi, waktu kompresi dan dekompresi untuk setiap citra. Penelitian ini menggunakan tiga nilai threshold yaitu 30, 40 dan 50. Percobaan yang dilakukan menggunakan lima citra medis yang mewakili jenis citra hasil X-ray, USG dan CT-Scan sebagai data testing. Penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa codec Haar dan Biorthogonal memberikan hasil yang lebih baik dibandingkan codec Daubechies dalam hal kualitas citra (PSNR) dan rasio. Akan tetapi untuk waktu kompresi, codec Daubechies lebih cepat meskipun tidak secara signifikan.

AbstrakSekolah bukan hanya tempat sekedar menuntut ilmu pada dimensi formal saja. Sekolah sebagai tempat untuk belajar, beraktualisasi, serta bersosialisasi sebagai bagian dari kebutuhan peserta didik. Jika sekolah hanya tempat untuk menuntut ilmu dan mendapat ijazah, maka persepsi tersebut kurang tepat. Banyak sekali kontribusi sekolah bagi generasi muda Indonesia. Segala aspek formal keilmuan mereka dapatkan di sekolah. Lebih dari itu,  sekolah sebagai kawah candradimuka, atau  lembaga pendidikan formal memiliki tugas penting dalam rangka menyiapkan generasi muda yang siap pakai. Sekolah juga sebagai wahana untuk mendidik para anak bangsa menjadi bertaqwa,terampil, berbudi pekerti luhur, cinta tanah air, serta sehat jasmani dan rohani. Penyelenggaraan bela negara di sekolah disadari atau tidak direalisasikan  melalui pendidikan agama, pendidikan kewarganegaraan, upacara bendera, penyelenggaraan ibadah di sekolah, kegiatan ekstrakulikuler seperti Pramuka, PMR, Karawitan, seni tari,  sebagai  kegiatan yang sarat bermuatan pembentukan karakter, kepedulian kepada sesama, serta kecintaan kepada budaya asli nusantara. Tentunya sekolah telah menyelenggarakan kegiatan bermuatan bela negara sesuai dengan usia, fisik, psikhis, peserta didik. Kata kunci: Aktualisasi, Bela Negara, dan Sekolah  AbstractSchool is not just a place to study science in the formal dimension only. School as a place to learn, actualize, and socialize as part of the needs of learners.If the school is just a place to study.and get a diploma, then the perception is less precise. Lots of school contribution for the young generation of Indonesia. All formal aspects of scholarship they get in school.Moreover, the school as a crater candradimuka, or formal educational institution has an important task in order to prepareyoung generation ready to use. The school is also a vehicle to educate the children of the nation to become devoted, skilled, virtuous noble character, love the homeland, andas well as physically and mentally healthy. The organization of state defense in schools is realized or not realized through religious education, civic education, ceremony of flag, organizing worship in schools, extracurricular activities such as Scouting, Youth Redcross, Karawitan, dance, as a loaded activitywhich is full of character formation, caring for others, and love for indigenous cultureindigenous culture of archipelago.

Conducting simulation studies for computerized adaptive testing using SimulCAT: an instructional piece
Authors: Han Kyung (Chris) Tyek
Published: August 2018

Computerized adaptive testing (CAT) technology is widely used in a variety of licensing and certification examinations administered to health professionals in the United States. Many more countries worldwide are expected to adopt CAT for their national licensing examinations for health professionals due to its reduced test time and more accurate estimation of a test-taker’s performance ability. Continuous improvements to CAT algorithms promote the stability and reliability of the results of such examinations. For this reason, conducting simulation studies is a critically important component of evaluating the design of CAT programs and their implementation. This report introduces the principles of SimulCAT, a software program developed for conducting CAT simulation studies. The key evaluation criteria for CAT simulation studies are explained and some guidelines are offered for practitioners and test developers. A step-by-step tutorial example of a SimulCAT run is also presented. The SimulCAT program supports most of the methods used for the 3 key components of item selection in CAT: the item selection criterion, item exposure control, and content balancing. Methods for determining the test length (fixed or variable) and score estimation algorithms are also covered. The simulation studies presented include output files for the response string, item use, standard error of estimation, Newton-Raphson iteration information, theta estimation, the full response matrix, and the true standard error of estimation. In CAT simulations, one condition cannot be generalized to another; therefore, it is recommended that practitioners perform CAT simulation studies in each stage of CAT development.
Interactive 3D Exploration of RDF Graphs through Semantic Planes

Published: August 2018

This article presents Tarsier, a tool for the interactive 3D visualization of RDF graphs. Tarsier is mainly intended to support teachers introducing students to Semantic Web data representation formalisms and developers in the debugging of applications based on Semantic Web knowledge bases. The tool proposes the metaphor of semantic planes as a way to visualize an RDF graph. A semantic plane contains all the RDF terms sharing a common concept; it can be created, and further split into several planes, through a set of UI controls or through SPARQL 1.1 queries, with the full support of OWL and RDFS. Thanks to the 3D visualization, links between semantic planes can be highlighted and the user can navigate within the 3D scene to find the better perspective to analyze data. Data can be gathered from generic SPARQL 1.1 protocol services. We believe that Tarsier will enhance the human friendliness of semantic technologies by: (1) helping newcomers assimilate new data representation formats; and (2) increasing the capabilities of inspection to detect relevant situations even in complex RDF graphs.
Effect of Continuous Exposure to Low Levels of Ethylene on Mycelial Growth of Postharvest Fruit Fungal Pathogens
Authors: Pristijono Penta , Wills Ron B. H. , Tesoriero Len , Golding John B.
Published: August 2018

Ethylene enhances the ripening and senescence of fruit with increased susceptibility to fungal decay a common feature of such changes. Most studies on the effect of ethylene have been in vivo where it is not possible to determine whether any effect due to ethylene arises from changes in metabolism of produce or from a direct effect on the pathogen. The few in vitro studies, that have been carried out, have been with very high ethylene levels, and did not identify the source of pathogens tested. This study examined the effect of air and ethylene, at 0.1 and 1 μL L−1, on the growth of fungi isolated from five climacteric fruits (persimmon, pear, tomato, mango and papaya), and three non-climacteric fruits (orange, grape and blueberry). All fungi isolated from climacteric fruits had reduced mycelial growth when held in 0.1 and 1 μL L−1 ethylene but those from non-climacteric fruits showed no effect of ethylene. The finding was unexpected and suggests that fungi that colonise climacteric fruits are advantaged by delaying growth when fruits start to ripen. Since non-climacteric fruits do not exhibit any marked increase in ethylene, colonising pathogens would not need such an adaptive response.
Food Insecurity among Older Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders
Authors: Temple Jeromey B. , Russell Joanna
Published: August 2018

It is well established that Indigenous populations are at a heightened risk of food insecurity. Yet, although populations (both Indigenous and non-Indigenous) are ageing, little is understood about the levels of food insecurity experienced by older Indigenous peoples. Using Australian data, this study examined the prevalence and correlates of food insecurity among older Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders. Using nationally representative data, we employed ordinal logistic regression models to investigate the association between socio-demographic characteristics and food insecurity. We found that 21% of the older Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander population were food insecure, with 40% of this group exposed to food insecurity with food depletion and inadequate intake. This places this population at a 5 to 7-fold risk of experiencing food insecurity relative to their older non-Indigenous peers. Measures of geography, language and low socio-economic status were highly associated with exposure to food insecurity. Addressing food insecurity offers one pathway to reduce the disparity in health outcomes between Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders and non-Indigenous Australians. Policies that consider both remote and non-remote Australia, as well as those that involve Aboriginal people in their design and implementation are needed to reduce food insecurity.
