Published: June 2024

The rapid development of the times marked by advances in science and technology, whether we realize it or not, it has a sharp impact on society, including adolescents and school-age children. The positive impact arising from the development of science and technology is a great hope for all levels of society. On the other hand, the emergence of negative impacts is undeniable and has recently occurred in society, including in the world of education. Cases of bullying, student fights, skipping school, actions of against the teachers, are increasingly common.  This makes parents, practitioners, organizers and observers of education quite concerned and stimulated to create and emphasize education that is able to produce students who have strong character, have akhlaqul karimah.
Realizing this condition is also the responsibility of the government, the government stipulates the importance of character education in educational institutions as stated in Presidential Regulation No. 78 of 2017 concerning Strengthening Character Education. One of the efforts taken by education providers is to organize education with boarding services, namely educational services by requiring students to live in school dormitories, with the aim that the education process can run twenty-four hours, with full attention and monitoring and guidance from the boarding supervisor. With this boarding system, the school will be easier to condition students to participate in activities organized by the school, including religious education as the core of character education in theory and practice directly with the guidance of teachers in the dormitory.
Boarding system education also isolates students from socializing in the wider environment which has recently been exposed to many negative influences from the internet, social media and so on. In boarding schools, students are taught to have a strong character through a maximum educational process.

La versión Expandida del International Affective Digitized Sounds (IADS-E) es un corpus de estímulos auditivos con capacidad de inducir emociones en un contexto experimental. En Argentina existen validaciones de estímulos como imágenes o palabras. El objetivo de este trabajo es presentar los datos normativos para 180 sonidos del IADS-E. Los sonidos fueron calificados por 272 voluntarios utilizando el Self-Assessment Manikin (SAM), una medida de autoinforme que representa las tres dimensiones afectivas: valencia, activación y dominancia. Los resultados muestran puntuaciones con alta consistencia interna para valencia, activación y dominancia. Además, se encontró la típica distribución en forma de boomerang en el espacio afectivo bidimensional formado por la valencia y la activación. Por último, se compararon las puntuaciones afectivas según el sexo y el país de origen de los participantes. No se encontraron diferencias entre los grupos de hombres y mujeres. Los resultados que muestran diferencias significativas entre la muestra original y la argentina solo se encontraron en las dimensiones activación y dominancia.
Entrenamiento de procesos inhibitorios en nivel primario. Análisis de la transferencia sobre el desempeño en matemáticas. Un estudio piloto.
Authors: Aydmune Yesica , Stelzer Florencia , Villaroia Gisele , Introzzi Isabel
Published: June 2024

Los procesos inhibitorios -inhibición perceptual, cognitiva y de la respuesta- son funciones ejecutivas principales y se las entiende como procesos de dominio general. En nuestro medio se han desarrollado tareas con el objeto de optimizarlos y, eventualmente, generar un impacto en habilidades relacionadas, que se han puesto a prueba de manera aislada. Aquí se pretende aplicarlas conjuntamente, conformando un programa global de entrenamiento inhibitorio destinado a escolares de los primeros años del nivel primario, y analizar sus efectos sobre el desempeño en matemáticas. Se trabajó con 25 estudiantes en un diseño experimental, con un grupo experimental (de entrenamiento), uno de control, un pre-test y un post-test. El entrenamiento implicó la ejecución de tareas diseñadas para demandar inhibición perceptual, cognitiva y de la respuesta, a lo largo de seis sesiones de 10-15 minutos. En las instancias pre y post-test, todos los participantes fueron evaluados en su capacidad inhibitoria y en el desempeño en matemáticas. Los principales resultados no mostraron diferencias significativas entre grupos en el post-test, aunque a nivel intragrupal, solo el grupo experimental cambió significativamente su rendimiento del pre al post-test en el desempeño en una tarea de restas sucesivas, Z = -2.69, p = .007, r = -.69, observándose diferencias marginales en las otras actividades (p > .05). Considerando el rendimiento en el pre-test, se encontraron relaciones entre el desempeño en restas y procesos inhibitorios (ps < .05). Se discute en torno al alcance del estudio piloto y la importancia de considerar en futuros trabajos el tamaño de los grupos y los instrumentos de evaluación. Se sugiere que, en esta etapa, la realización de restas puede implicar mayor demanda ejecutiva -específicamente de los procesos inhibitorios.

Authors: Resett Santiago , González - Caino Pablo Christian
Published: June 2024

La personalidad oscura es un importante constructo. En épocas recientes se han propuesto varios modelos a este respecto, uno de los más avanzados es el D70 que entiende a esta como un factor g de inteligencia. De este modo, el presente estudio es el primero en idioma español en usar un cuestionario a este respecto. Los objetivos del presente trabajo son evaluar las alfas de Cronbach de las nueve subescalas, describir los puntajes del D70, determinar si el género y la edad introducían diferencias y poner a prueba un modelo estructural para predecir la personalidad oscura a partir de la empatía y los problemas de conducta. Se trabajó con una muestra intencional de 565 adultos argentinos con edades de 18 a 58 años, con media de edad de 25.31 (DE = 9.38). Con respecto al género, un 34% eran varones y un 66%, mujeres. Un 53% tenía un trabajo. El 40% residía en Ciudad Autónoma de Buenos Aires, el 50% en Gran Buenos Aires y el 10% en Paraná, Entre Ríos, Argentina. Los alfas de Cronbach variaban de .54 a .81. El grupo de menor edad (adultos emergentes) mostraba mayores puntajes en algunas dimensiones del D70 (maquiavelismo, narcisismo y psicopatía), en comparación con el de mayor edad, mientras que los varones puntuaban más altos en la mayoría de las dimensiones, en comparación con las mujeres. Se halló un ajuste adecuado para un modelo estructural para predecir los problemas de conducta X2 (74 ) = 224.60, p < .001, CFI = .96, TLI = .94, RMSEA = 06, con los puntajes de empatía y los puntajes del D70 siendo significativos. En la discusión se analizan las implicancias de estos hallazgos.

El presente artículo analiza la evidencia de validez basada en la estructura interna y la confiabilidad del Índice de Esperanza de Herth de 12 reactivos en una muestra de 1255 habitantes de la ciudad de Arequipa (46.3% hombres y 53.7% mujeres), ubicada al sur de Perú. Se pusieron a prueba cinco modelos mediante análisis factorial confirmatorio y en base a los resultados, se realizaron comparaciones en función del sexo y la edad. Los resultados sugieren una estructura bifactorial similar a la reportada una muestra de Lima. Asimismo, no se registraron diferencias en función del sexo, aunque sí con respecto a la edad en la dimensión de agencias, pero dados los resultados de baja confiabilidad en esta dimensión, se sugiere tomar estos resultados con cautela.
Genetic Backgound of Cattle Temperament
Authors: Smolinger Jože , Gorenjak Mario , Škorjanc Dejan
Published: June 2024

Animal temperament describes behavioural differences between individuals that are consistent over time and across different circumstances. Knowledge of the animal's temperament has a major effect on the safety of handling and caring for the animals as well as on the adaptation of the animals to changing rearing conditions. To understand animal temperament, we need to know not only the genetic basis of temperament, but also the influence of the environment on its expression. Similarly the temperament of dairy cows can be defined as the animal's response to environmental or social stimuli. In this review article, chromosomes with genomic regions containing QTLs, genes and candidate genes responsible for the expression of temperament traits in cattle are presented. Knowledge of the genetic background of temperament expression in cattle and its variability in these traits allows temperament to be included in the selection index.

Authors: Fasae Oladapo Ayokunle FASAE , Adelusi Felicia Temitope
Published: June 2024

The potential of fodder tree legumes (FTL) as a promising and nutritional strategy to minimize the problem of insufficient supply of forages, especially during the dry season, in West African dwarf sheep and goats’ production systems was reviewed. For more sustainable agricultural systems, including expanding the use of locally produced available feedstuffs, FTL species with a focus on Leucaena leucocephala, Gliricidia sepium, and Enterolobium cyclocarpum represent an interesting strategy to provide dietary nitrogen and improve feed digestibility, weight gain, and nitrogen retention, thus enhancing dwarf sheep and goats’ productivity. They also contain concentrations of biologically active compounds with nutraceutical value that assist in slowing down the infections with parasitic nematodes of the gastrointestinal tract and mitigating enteric methane emissions from these animals. The dietary crude protein and tannin content ranged from 16.20 to 26.79% and 0.95 to 2.92%, respectively across the FTL species. Mean weight gain (g/day) of 43.23 to 48.59 and 32.46 to 40.87, respectively were reviewed for dwarf sheep and goats fed FTL supplementary diets. Haematological and serum biochemical variables monitored were within the permissible range for healthy animals and showed the adequacy of nutrient supply from FTL species with nutrient utilization to improve productivity. The review concluded that the combination of excellent nutritive value reported for FTL provides important opportunities for sustainable dwarf sheep and goat feeding systems.

Published: June 2024

The automotive industry around the world, including Slovakia, is taking steps to decarbonize their production in accordance with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). Decarbonizing the operations of automotive Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs)requires a holistic and systemic understanding of all environmentally relevant resource flows and the implementation of technologically and economically affordable solutions to achieve their targets for reducing the carbon footprint (CF). The CF analysis of Jaguar Land Rover Slovakia s.r.o. (JLR SK) was performed using the Greenhouse Gas Protocol (GHG Protocol). The purpose of the study was to improve theunderstanding of CF within the context of an OEM. The authors of this study are not aware, as of the date of publication, of any other comparable outputs from CF analyses by GHG Protocol in Slovakia, making this study the first of its kind. The results showed that the total CF was 1,143,205 tCO2e(tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent); of which SCOPE 1 emissions were 18,584 tCO2e (1.62%), SCOPE 2 emissions were 0.87 tCO2e (0.0001%) and SCOPE 3 emissions were 1,130,866 tCO2e (98.38%). Normalized CF values for all three SCOPES were 309.81 tCO2e per active employee; 3.08 kgCO2e per unit of turnover (EUR); and 14.95 tCO2e per vehicle produced. Current legislative standards and the active participation of OEMs can lead the automotive industry towards sustainability, including the achievement of net-zero carbon emissions despite rising consumption or production volume. With respect tosome ambiguities in the initial data inventory, the presented analysis shows the first approach to identifying the CF of an automotive factory based on GHG Protocol in Slovakia.
In Silico Active Compounds of Musa troglodytarum L. as Antibiotic Candidates for Tuberculosis
Authors: Putra Rinaldi Rizal , Hernawati Diana , Meylani Vita
Published: June 2024

The primary approach for managing tuberculosis involves the use of antibiotics, such as isoniazid. Over the course of time, genetic mutations give rise to bacterial resistance against synthetic medications. As a result of this phenomenon, the aforementioned impacts can be mitigated through the utilisation of bioactive compounds derived from naturally occuring substances, such as mature bananas (Musa troglodytarum L). The objective of this work was to assess the pharmacokinetics and physicochemical properties of Rrespon bananas, as well as their binding affinity on the 4KL9 receptor, in order to anticipate potential toxicity using the in silico molecular docking approach. The findings indicate that the Rangga banana contains Fumaric acid and Benzoic Acid compounds that exhibit a stronger binding affinity for the 4KL9 receptor compared to isoniazid. The ligand's binding affinity is more negative by -4.8 kcal/mol and -5.4 kcal/mol, satisfying Lipinski's five laws, including a molecular weight of 116.072 g/mol and 122.123 g/mol, Log p values of 0.2882 and 1.3848, HBA values of 2 and 1, and HBD values of 2 and 1. Additionally, the compounds demonstrate a favourable ADME profile (Absorption, Distribution, Metabolism, and Excretion) and fall within toxicity classes 3 and 4, which are considered safer than isoniazid. Consequently, these two compounds possess potential as tuberculosis drugs that minimise adverse effects.

Authors: Dreshaj Niman
Published: June 2024

Examining the evaluation process and the items used to evaluate students is crucial. For student evaluations, teachers are either staying with more traditional methods that need significantly less commitment than present methods, or they are adopting more modern alternatives. The purpose of this research is to find out whether and how Kosovo's student teaching content is evaluated. Thus, the study focuses on identifying various types of test designs that are employed to determine their effectiveness. The goal of this study is to improve teaching and learning by offering reliable information on evaluation. The results display that most teachers are trained to use summative methods, and occasionally formative methods are implemented. The information gathered also reveals that the application of particular strategies by teachers is significantly influenced by their age, length of service, and attendance at training. The results show that older teachers tend to use summative assessments. whereas younger educators use formative strategies.

Published: June 2024

Given that the teachers’ feedback is among the essential factors that affect students’ achievements, the present study examines the teachers’ feedback quality in essays in the secondary education of the RNM, regarding its corrective nature, in the teaching subject Macedonian language and literature. Thus, the aim is to obtain a general picture on the feedback quality having in mind the theoretical indications on the way the feedback should be provided to fulfill its main function, i.e. to be corrective and to guide students’ toward improvement of their learning and achievements.

The sample consists of 50 students’ essays, from first to fourth grade of the secondary education, on which teachers’ feedback is written, and the analysis rests upon coding and the inductive-interpretative method, and the comparison, as well.

The research results indicate that there is a gap between the theory and the practice, i.e. the teachers’ feedback loses its corrective character. Instead of directing the students to undertake actions for enhancement of the identified shortcomings, the analyzed feedback comes down to the phrase be careful followed by the aspect on which the students should focus on, thus limiting their further steps in learning.

Authors: Icka Ejona , Kochoska Jasminka
Published: June 2024

As a result of globalization, people are faced with large and rapid changes, but also with challenges for which they are not prepared and the reactions to these changes are often not at all in the interest of well-being and development. Today, educators face major challenges despite the various educational reforms and substantial research undertaken over the past decades. At the same time, rapid technological advances and increasing complexities in social life may make it difficult to emphasize morals, values, and ethics and present them through improved curriculum and teaching practices. The emphasis in this paper will be placed on the teacher who, as an ethical model, has a significant influence on the development of students.

Teachers play a decisive role in the cultivation of moral values and ethical behavior of students in schools. Through the model of their behavior, teachers influence the formation of perceptions and internalization of students' moral values, encouraging and promoting a sense of ethical responsibility and orienting the decision-making processes. Character, ethical, and moral behavior of teachers, remain an example in the development of students' talent, emotional intelligence, instructions in ethical decision-making, fostering the development of a moral culture, encouraging self-reflection, nurturing a sense of responsibility, integrating traditional and contemporary learning, encouraging critical thinking, and providing mentoring and support. Also, the effects of moral and ethical education are long-term, which are reflected not only in interpersonal and social relations, and impact in the community, but are also clearly reflected in the motivation to study, the encouragement of the development of talents, but also in the inheritance of these values in other generations.

Authors: Kostadinovska-Stojchevska Bisera , Shalevska Elena
Published: June 2024

Emojis are employed to enhance communication in the digital age on the daily. And the digital-natives, the Gen-Zers, seem to be particularly creative when it comes to their use. Recognizing this, this qualitative study examines the evolving use of one particular emoji – the skull emoji, as a tone tag within Gen-Z internet slang. By analyzing various examples from different social media platforms, the paper highlights how this emoji, beyond its conventional representation of death, has been repurposed by this generation of speakers to denote laughter or embarrassment.

The study further argues that the modern use of the skull emoji serves a dual function: it not only signifies humor/awkwardness but also acts as a tool to separate text, thereby being used as a makeshift punctuation mark.

Published: June 2024

Kaffir lime leaves are a spice plant that is often used by the community as a spice or flavoring for dishes. Kaffir lime leaf spice has a promising business opportunity. However, kaffir lime leaves have a shelf life that is not durable. Post-harvest handling efforts need to be done to extend its shelf life, one way that can be done is by drying. Drying aims to reduce the water content in the material until it reaches a safe moisture content for storage. Drying methods on kaffir lime leaves have been widely practiced. However, the method of drying kaffir lime leaves with pre-treatment blanching using a food dehydrator has not been done much. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of blanching time on reducing the water content of kaffir lime leaves using a food dehydrator. The materials used in this study were fresh kaffir lime leaves obtained from Bale Tatanen, Faculty of Agriculture, Padjadjaran University. The method used in this research was an experimental method with a completely randomized design (CRD) design with one factor, namely the pretreatment of steam blanching duration (A = 0 minutes; B = 1 minute; and C = 2 minutes). The drying process conditions were carried out at 60℃ for 3 hours with a food dehydrator. The research parameter observed was moisture content. The results showed that 2 minutes steam blanching resulted in the lowest moisture content after drying, from 62.22% (w/b) to 3.27% (w/b).

Authors: Apriantika Suci , Juwitaningtyas Titisari
Published: June 2024

Sheet jam is a semi-solid form of jam, printed in a size that is adjusted to the size of white bread in general so that it makes it easier for users to serve food. Making sheet jam requires fruit that contains pectin to produce a good jam texture, one of which is dates. The pectin content in dates is low to form sheet jam, so it is necessary to add gelling ingredients from natural pectin such as jackfruit dami with a pectin content of 11.69%. The type of commercial pectin used is CMC (carboxymethyl celulose). The aims of the research were to determine the effect of variations in Jackfruit Dami extract and CMC on the physico-chemical characteristics and organoleptic acceptability of date palm jam. The research was designed using a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with one factor, namely the concentration of Jackfruit Dami pectin treatment and CMC F1 (1% : 0%), F2 (0.6% : 0.4%), F3 (0.5% : 0 .5%), F4 (0.4% : 0.6%), F5 (0% : 1%). The parameters in this research were organoleptic tests (color, taste, aroma, texture and overall), water content, pH, texture and color. Statistical analysis used One Way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) followed by the DMRT test. The results of the analysis showed that the formulation of date palm jam had a significant effect on the physico-chemical properties including water content (31.11% - 34.22%), pH (3.97 - 4.32), adhesiveness (30.03 Nmm - 13 .38 Nmm), cohesiveness (0.83 – 0.38), hardness (78.59 N – 16.17 N), color L* (34.48 – 40.37), color a* (4.72 – 1, 42), and color b* (19.31 – 27.13). Organoleptic acceptance test results showed that the sample preferred by the panelists was F3 with the addition of 0.5% Jackfruit Dami pectin and 0.5% CMC.

Indonesia is one of the archipelagic countries with unlimited potential for fish resources, this is evidenced by the extent of Indonesia's marine waters reaching 295,370 km, stretching from the Indian Ocean to the Atlantic Ocean. The large amount of fish, especially in certain periods, makes the price of fish cheap. Therefore, the fish needs to be processed to produce a more diverse product diversification: wood fish, a typical Acehnese food known as keumamah fish. This keumamah fish can be processed by drying and has a long shelf life, but if improper handling in processing and storage causes this product to spoil quickly. This study looked at pretreatment storage methods so that keumamah fish can be stored longer as measured by the Accelerate Self-Life Testing Method with the Arrhenius model. This study was conducted by drying the fish with preliminary treatment using 50 hertz microwave wave (5 and 7 minutes) and storing the fish packaged using polyethylene plastic in an oven with temperatures of 35, 45 and 55 Celsius and analyzing the critical point on moisture content and microbial count during the storage process. The analysis results show that the shelf life of wood fish with 7 minutes of microwave pretreatment and oven drying at 55 Celsius, the fish can be stored in the oven until 120 days.

The growth and expansion of micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) is hampered by a number of challenges, including a lack of funding. For their operations to scale and modernize competitively, they must have access to long-term funding. Various digital-based financing solutions have emerged. Islamic crowdfunding is an alternative way to finance social projects, which is a new development. This research aims to examine the behavioral intentions of millennial MSMEs when using sharia crowdfunding on the island of Java. This research adopts the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) by adding the sharia compliance variable to the TAM model. The approach used is quantitative, with data analysis techniques in the form of structural equation modeling-PLS (SEM-PLS) with the help of Smart PLS 3 software. The sample in this research was 200 millennial-generation MSMEs on the island of Java. The sampling method used was convenience sampling, which involved distributing an online questionnaire (a Google Form) using a 1–5 Likert scale. The findings of this research offer guidance on the potential for implementing sharia crowdfunding for MSMEs. Therefore, sharia crowdfunding has the potential to ease the government's burdens in providing funds for microbusinesses and improve their skills and mentality to be more independent, creative, and able to promote their products, as well as serve as an endorsement for spreading sharia crowdfunding for MSME capital solutions in Indonesia.

Impact of Risk and Competition on Indonesian Islamic Bank Performance: Panel Data Evidence
Authors: Hamadou Issa
Published: June 2024

This paper examines the impact of banking risk and competition on the performance of Islamic banks in Indonesia. The study used financing to deposit ratio (FDR) as a representation of liquidity risk, non-performing financing (NPF) as a representation of financing risk, and the operating expense ratio (BOPO) as a representation of operational risk. Regarding competition, market share (MS) and market concentration (MC) proxies by the Hirschman–Herfindahl Index (HHI) were used. Time series data were collected from 14 Islamic banks operating in Indonesia for the period 2010–2020 and the Least Square method was used. It was found that liquidity risk affects positively the profit of Islamic banks, while financing risk and operational risk impact negatively the variation of the profit. Only market share, influences the variation in the profit of Islamic banks in terms of competition level. Therefore, the Indonesian government should apply a competition policy to the Islamic banking sector in order to increase their profitability and improve economic growth. For future research, it is recommended to include other Islamic finance institutions like Islamic rural banks and Islamic takaful (Islamic insurance) to analyse these effects in a general way.

This research aims to assess the suitability of halal standards. in the sharia banking industry sector, apart from that, in principle, when a bank has a high value of non-halal income, it can be predicted that the bank will still have high interest-based debt, and vice versa, All Syrian Commercial Banks registered with the OJK in 2014-2021 constitute the research population. 96 samples were collected from 12 BUS using purposive sampling. The findings show that the indicator of Halal Life Style, namely Non-Halal Income (X1), has no effect on ISR disclosure, while the Sharia Financial Performance indicator consisting of FDR (X3), CAR (X4), and DER (X5) has no effect on ISR disclosure (Y), while ROA (X2) influences ISR disclosure (Y). The result of this research show that companies in the halal industrial sector, especially Sharia Commercial Banks in Indonesia, are still lacking in paying attention to and minimizing non-halal income as well as other indicators such as FDR, CAR, and DER.
