Discourse-aware text classification for argument mining
Authors:   FRC CSC RAS / Moscow, Russia, Chistova Elena , Smirnov Ivan ,   FRC CSC RAS / Moscow, Russia
Published: October 2022

We show that using the rhetorical structure automatically generated by the discourse parser is beneficial for paragraph-level argument mining in Russian. First, we improve the structure awareness of the current RST discourse parser for Russian by employing the recent top-down approach for unlabeled tree construction on a paragraph level. Then we demonstrate the utility of this parser in two classification argument mining subtasks of the RuARG-2022 shared task. Our approach leverages a structured LSTM module to compute a text representation that reflects the composition of discourse units in the rhetorical structure. We show that: (i) the inclusion of discourse analysis improves paragraph-level text classification; (ii) a novel TreeLSTM-based approach performs well for the computation of the complex text hidden representation using both a language model and an end-to-end RST parser; (iii) structures predicted by the proposed RST parser reflect the argumentative structures in texts in Russian.

Authors: Kurniawan Tri Puji
Published: October 2022

The standard thresholds for drinking water and clean water for domestic needs are regulated by The Decree of Minister of Health No. 492/Menkes/Per/IV/2010. The condition of water quality in  Pondok Baru Permai Dwelling Complex at Bulak Rejo of Sukoharjo regency is poor. Physically, the water is having putrid odor, turbid and leaving yellowish and brownish color both in the wa-ter itself and also on bathrooms’ walls. Those indicate that the water contains Fe that exceeding the threshold. The research was an analytical observational study with cross sectional design. The data collected were primary quantitative ones as the measurement results of physical and chemical parameters of the water that consisted of: color, TDS, iron, total hardness, chloride, manganese, nitrite, pH, and sulphate. The measurements were conducted at the Environmental Health Laboratory of Sukoharjo Regency. Twenty artesian wells in the study location were se-lected by total sampling technique. The variables under study were environmental factors, i.e. distance from well to pollutant source, number of pollutant source for each well, well’s physical condition and type, and well’s water quality. Bivariate analysis was conducted by using Chi-Square test. The results show that most of the existing artesian wells have fulfilled the requisite for clean water source. However, one well is identified as under standard for drinking and clean water source because containing Fe, and five wells have Mn level that exceeding the thre-sholds for both drinking and clean water. Distance to pollutant, number of pollutant, well’s phy-sical condition and type correlate significantly with color, manganese level, pH and organic sub-stance of the wells.

Authors: Chiu Mei-Shiu , Lin Fou-Lai , Yang Kai-Lin , Hasumi Toshiyuki , Wu Tsung-Ju , Lin Pin-Syuan
Published: October 2022

This study aims to build a framework for affect-focused (or affective) mathematical teaching (AMT), while promoting higher-order mathematical learning (e.g., pattern finding and deep understanding). The data sources were the class mathematics grounding activity designed by Taiwan’s mathematics educators, aiming to enhance students’ affective performances in learning mathematics with a theoretical base on the enactivist perspective. Qualitative methodology identified features of affective mathematics teaching and formed a framework for AMT, which defines AMT as transforming natural languages to mathematical languages, highlighting student agenda of upward learning (interest, sense, utter, and present), met by teacher agenda of caring (cultivate, amuse, reflect, and explain). Finally, the enactivist embodiment activities are embedded in the pedagogical structure of 4E phases: entry, entertainment, enlightenment, and enrichment. Affect and cognition interplay in each phase.
TERRITORIAL ISSUES IN RELATIONS OF THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION WITH THE STATES OF THE BALTIC REGION AT THE PRESENT STAGE
Authors: Zinko Ihor
Published: October 2022

The issues of territorial disputes between the Russian Federation (RF) and the states of the Baltic region (Finland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland) that preceded the signing of interstate treaties on borders after the collapse of the USSR are reviewed. The historical, political, ethnic and economic factors of solving these issues and the formation of borders between the Russian Federation and the states of the Baltic region, starting from 1920, during the Second World War, in the first postwar years and until now, are analyzed. Special focus is made on the status of the Kaliningrad region of the Russian Federation (former East Prussia) in the context of the national interest of Poland and Lithuania (Lithuania Minor). It is claimed that there are currently no territorial problems in the relations of the Baltic states with the Russian Federation in the political and legal sense. However, the very aggressive policy of the Kremlin, especially as a result of the armed intervention against Ukraine, is able to activate them and cause a revision of the borders in the event of a possible expansion of the conflict into this region and the participation of NATO in it.

Authors: Kvik Andriy , Vaskul Svyatoslav
Published: October 2022

The article outlines the effects of the structural elements of the ecumenical concept, its relevance and significance in the context of global challenges in the environment of modern civilization. Their main directions, originating from the latest philosophical and worldview paradigms, the escalation of ethno-confessional prejudices and secularization, are determined. An analysis of the significance of the ecumenical efforts of Christian communities in interaction with the processes of inculturation of evangelical principles, thanks to missionary activity, was carried out. The forms of inculturation, its nature and main features, which are manifested in the successful reception of Christianity by various cultural environments, are outlined. In particular, religious and non-religious dimensions of ecumenism are taken into account, their importance in the process of effective functioning in the field of social service, missionary work, environmental actions. It is determined that missionary activity, which is closely intertwined with inculturation, constitutes a functional element of religious actions in the spirit of ecumenism. In the process of research, it becomes clear that the process of inculturation of Christianity is not one-sided by its nature, but requires a response from the side of the cultural environment that is being evangelized.

Published: October 2022

The article reveals the main aspects of industrialization in Prykarpattia during the arrival of the second “Soviets”. With the arrival of the Soviet army in the Carpathians began significant transformations in the economy. The new government began to transform the country’s agricultural region into an industrial one. The stages of creation of the largest industrial giants in heavy industry are revealed. The process of transition from the agricultural sector to the construction of heavy plants and factories is described. The process of formation of the first chemically processing and chemically mining enterprises is revealed. The process of formation of oil mines, potash and ore mines is analyzed. The process of transition of the Prykarpattia region to the rails of rapid industrialization is described. The hidden motives of the real industrialization of the Stinislav region, which in political terms continued to be in opposition to the new government, are also described. It was believed that this is where large chemical plants should be built, which were harmful to their emissions. In the forest industry there was an active construction of sawmills and processing plants in Kolomyia, Verkhovyna, etc. The process of industrialization itself was difficult, as the ancient infrastructure of Prykarpattia was destroyed.

The vision of the post-war development of the higher education system is formed through an understanding of the fundamental values and needs of society. Achieving the main directions of reforming the higher education system is possible under the condition of combining the activities of subjects of state management of higher education, public self-government bodies, and stakeholders. Key changes in the system of higher education for the coming years will remain the aspects of legislative support for the reform, support for institutional development, and activation of international relations. Modernization of the legal basis for coordinating and regulating the development of the higher education system depends on the dynamic digitalization of institutions, demographic and economic changes, diversification of funding sources, and the development of the economic partnership. The basic directions of reforming public management activity are the strengthening of national consolidation, the application of mixed management models, the implementation of European standards of higher education, the strengthening of European integration processes, the implementation of innovative managerial forms, the partnership of business and science, the development of university startups.
LAND LEGAL RELATIONS UNDER THE LEGISLATION OF POLAND AND UKRAINE: A COMPARATIVE LEGAL ANALYSIS
Authors: Tsvigun Iryna
Published: October 2022

The article carres out a professional comparative legal analysis of the legislation of Ukraine and Poland in the field of land law regulation. Attention was primarily focused on the directions of development of land relations for completeness and a comprehensive presentation of the research , the concepts and terms most open to the understanding of the society were considered, in particular – «land legal relations», «land plot», «real estate», «land ownership», «land real estate», «real estate» and the general features and differences of these concepts in Ukrainian and Polish legislation are outlined. The article discloses the features of land management and cadastre in the system of land legal relations of both states, highlights the differences in the basic approaches of modern land management, in particular, the use of an innovative type of documentation for the Ukrainian legislator – a comprehensive spatial development plan. It has been studied that the cadastre system of Poland, unlike the cadastre system of Ukraine, is multifunctional and contains information about land plots and other real estate objects. It was found that land relations in Ukraine and Poland are regulated by a number of normative legal acts, while the essence of normative legal regulation is the division of land legal relations into relations of a public and private nature, which is a kind of standard of land relations regarding a land plot as a part of the earth surface and the corresponding natural resource. It was also found that at the current stage of the development of land legal relations, the formation of the latest approaches in understanding the infrastructure of geospatial data is decisive for both states, which is a potentially new step in the development of land relations in a systemic relationship with other types of natural resources (water, forest, plant life, etc.). Special attention is paid to the results of the study, based on the own analysis, a number of inherent and distinctive features of the legislation of Poland and Ukraine in the field of land law regulation have been singled out. It is noted that turning to the experience of other countries is a potentially important and promising direction in the development of modern Ukrainian legislation. Attention is focused on the importance of studying the experience of other countries, in particular Poland, which will contribute to the transformation of Ukrainian land legislation in the formation of norms that will contribute to the development of Ukrainian society.

The genesis of timber trusses: “unexpected” affinities between roofs carpentry in Etruria and Phrygia during the Antiquity
Authors: Ruggieri Nicola
Published: October 2022

The genesis of wooden trusses is a very controversial issue as the archaeological data, scarce and incomplete, are not very explicit. Indirect pieces of evidence of roof carpentry organized according to a truss system seem to have been found, at least from the Iron Age, in the Mediterranean basin. However, these are isolated cases that probably did not have a decisive influence on the evolution of the roofs of the immediately following eras. Full awareness of the potential and a systematization occurred in the Roman scope, and only in the Late Antiquity, there was a notable widespread, especially in the basilicas, of such an organization of the roof structure. In the concept process of the trusses, a considerable contribution is to be recognized to the Etruscan and Phrygian civilizations. Besides having in common an advanced development of timber structures, these cultures show diverse “coincidences” in material culture. In fact, for both peoples, relying on the iconography of figurative products, the articulation of the roof carpentry widely used in Antiquity is comparable, at least in the essential members and in their arrangement, to a truss. The contribution also provides data, with particular regard to those of a constructive nature, about the oldest existing wooden carpentry, dating back to the Early Phrygian period and belonging to the roof of the burial chamber of the “MM” tomb of the ancient city of Gordion (present-day Yassıhöyük village, in Anatolia).
Historic timber roofs in Belgium: overview of materials and structures (1150-1960)
Authors: Vandenabeele Louis
Published: October 2022

Belgium has a remarkable heritage of historic timber roofs that can be traced back to the 12th century. This contribution provides a review of 60 years of research on Belgian timber roofs and outlines their developments from 1150 to 1960. The focus is firstly put on wood resources, a crucial parameter for roof construction in a scarcely forested landscape. Then, the evolution of structural concepts over 800 years is discussed based on illustrations of remarkable roofs. Moreover, this broad overview raises several questions that open up new prospects for future investigations.
Ancient wooden roofs in the area of Genoa: the structure with a curvilinear profile of the parish church of Cogoleto
Authors: Pittaluga Daniela , Accomasso Cristina
Published: October 2022

A particular roof is that of S.M.Maggiore church in Cogoleto. The 19th century church, in fact, has an upper two-pitches roof and a lower roofbelow with a curvilinear profile. Both of them insist on the same perimeter, but they have no direct connection between them as far as it is visible. The study, therefore, focused on the understanding of this part of the building. The understanding of the building was obtained thanks to the use of both indirect sources (archive and bibliographic research) and direct sources: archaeological analyses (stratigraphic, mensiochronological, mineralogical-petrographic and wall textures), thermographic and ultrasonic analyzes. A particular effort had to be made in studying the details and reading the stratigraphic signs on the wood (this aspect is usually little developed). It was necessary to extend the analysis to the entire building for a better understanding. This study highlights a sequence of interventions in the church over the past two centuries; previous structures were usually preserved; new elements and stratifications were added. The two structures were chronologically different: the upper one is the most recent but was designed to preserve the older one below. Another interesting fact that emerged is the particular shape of the lower structure: a wooden roof with a curvilinear profile. This form of coverage is not particularly widespread in this part of the Ligurian territory. In any case, it is unusual for the historical period in which it was built (19th century). The research, therefore, focused on the reasons for this particular choice and the study of the dynamics of the 1877-78 construction site. It also allowed us to understand better the functioning of this specific structure, its technology, and its relationship with the remaining parts of the complex. The historic curved profile roofs highlighted differences in material and installation technique.
A review of Scandinavian research on medieval church roofs
Authors: Gullbrandsson Robin
Published: October 2022

The remarkable clusters of preserved high medieval church roofs in Scandinavia have been known since the early 20th century but surveys aimed at mapping and document these structures began first around 2000. The author reviews the State of Scandinavian research and presents recent and ongoing survey projects in Swedish dioceses. These cross-disciplinary projects have enhanced the value of historic timber structures as archaeological source material. A reading of craft techniques and tool marks provides insight into the work of the medieval carpenters. An example is presented of how a structured survey followed by moderate cleaning shaped a basis for maintenance and restoration in compliance with international principles.
Coffered ceilings in the churches of Rome, from the 15th to the 20th century
Authors: Tosini Arianna
Published: October 2022

The contribution concerns the coffered ceilings in Roman churches, which have been built between the mid-fifteenth and the mid-twentieth century and represent ornamental components of great value. The coffered ceilings still visible today are approximately sixty; many others have been demolished or destroyed by calamities through the time. The attention on the subject revived after the collapse in the church of San Giuseppe dei Falegnami occurred in August 2018; the event highlighted the vulnerability of the coffered ceilings and a lack of historical and technological knowledge regarding individual cases. Referring to the architectural treatises on the subject, this article focuses on the early-nineteenth-century texts by Jean-Baptiste Rondelet and Giuseppe Valadier, illustrating two different criteria in creating coffered ceilings. In the first one, the coffered ceilings are directly connected to the roof trusses, providing for the lining of the tie beams. In the second one, the coffered panels are nailed to wooden frames hanging from purlins placed over the tie beams. Both construction methods can be found in the coffered ceilings of Rome, but most of the cases refer to the second system. Thus, the contribution delves into the construction process in detail and focuses on the arrangement of the elements, reporting the analysis of some study cases, based on direct checks and surveys. In this regard, knowledge of the extrados of the ceilings is crucial foreseeing possible conservation works, allowing to avoid the risk of inappropriate restoration or replacement of original elements.
Technique at the service of a new liturgical model: the timber roof of the church of Saints Marcellino and Pietro in Cremona
Authors: Giuseppe Landi Angelo , Zamperini Emanuele
Published: October 2022

At the turn of the 17th century, the Jesuit order settled in the city of Cremona, where, thanks to the support of Bishop Speciano and some notable families, it started the construction of the church of Saints Marcellino and Pietro (1606-1620), the Schools and the College. The church model of the aisleless rectangular hall – large enough to accommodate a large number of faithful – forced the fathers to resort to unusual solutions for the area of Cremona, which, over the centuries, also led to instability and structural problems. The careful archival and bibliographic research made it possible to investigate the wooden roof with wide-span “Palladian” trusses (about 15.20 m), directing the diagnostic analyzes, identifying the peculiarities of the technical solutions adopted, in a continuous comparison between indirect sources and in situ investigations. The construction events of the trusses and secondary framing were investigated over a long period of time, to include the succession of minute maintenance and repairs, also carried out in the last two centuries; the complexity and stratification of works carried out in phases and singular interventions, linked to the chronological succession of events, is the basis for the interpretation of the current state of the structure, therefore for a restoration intervention aimed at protecting the building palimpsest.

The targeted teacher profile for the 21st century includes the ability to become competent in many areas based on knowledge, skills (cognitive skills, internal skills, social skills, research skills, learning-teaching skills), and values that fit the needs of the age. This study aimed to develop, implement, and evaluate argumentation-based inquiry teaching practices for the training of qualified science teachers. In this context, first, practices in argumentation-based inquiry were developed to educate individuals with mental flexibility; the ability to look at events from different perspectives and to think in alternative ways are necessary skills for the 21st century. Second, the planned argumentation-based inquiry practices were applied for 14 weeks in the “Science Literacy” elective course. To evaluate the effect of the implementation, science teacher candidates’ scientific process skills, high-level thinking skills, and consideration of the nature of science were investigated. A “concurrent triangulation design” was used in this mixed methods research. The study group comprised 38 science teacher candidates. Quantitative data were collected using a scientific process skills test, critical thinking disposition instruments, a metacognitive awareness inventory, and a nature of science views test. Qualitative data were collected through a semi-structured interview and documents (reflective learning diaries, reflective evaluation notes). The results show that the quantitative and qualitative findings support each other. It was determined that the practices carried out during the 14 weeks contributed to the science teacher candidates’ development of scientific process skills, critical thinking tendencies, metacognitive awareness, and views about the nature of science.

Authors: BÜLBÜL Hacer , ÖZDİNÇ Fatih
Published: October 2022

The research aims to examine augmented reality (AR) technology during the preschool years. For this purpose, we created activities with AR cards and compared them to activities with other materials. We designed the study as a case study, a qualitative research model. We used the convenience sampling method to select the study group, and we used the criterion sampling method from the selection methods. The study group consists of 18 children, nine boys and nine girls attending kindergarten. Children are between 54-and 77 months. We gathered data through semi-structured interviews, observation, and audio and video recordings. We used the content analysis method to analyze the data, creating codes and themes. Findings show that using AR technology in the preschool period attracts children's attention, gives them a sense of reality, embodies the content, supports peer relationships positively, and allows children to participate in activities willingly and focus on the activity. Furthermore, we have seen that AR technology can be a distraction. When comparing AR technology to other materials, we discovered that children prefer materials that directly connect to real life. They prefer materials that contain AR to materials that do not. We presented recommendations for the use of AR in the preschool period and for future research.

The effects of the constructivist-learning model on student outcomes are analyzed in this research study. For this purpose, results of 19 meta-analysis researches focusing on the effects of constructivist learning models on student outcomes are combined with the second-order meta-analysis method. The research included in the process had been carried out between the years 2015 and 2021. At the end of the research process, it is determined that the effect of constructivist learning models on student outcomes is medium-level. On the other hand, it is determined that the effect of constructivist learning models on student thinking skills and academic success is high-level. Besides, it is found that the effect of constructivist learning models on student attitudes is medium-level. At the end of the moderator analysis based on location, it is observed that the effects of constructivist learning models on student outcomes vary. Atelier studies can be carried out in education zones to develop teaching skills about the application of constructivist learning models. On the other hand, it is seen that studies on the issue mostly focus on academic success and attitude. Following this, the effects of constructivist learning models on the other student outcomes can be analyzed.

Differential expression of HS3ST3B1 in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.
Authors: Mamoor Shahan
Published: October 2022

Neurodegenerative diseases that affect the motor neurons, including amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), have little treatment options and are generally rapidly fatal (1, 2). We harnessed the power of unbiased, whole transcriptome differential gene expression analysis, utilizing primary patient cells and tissues to discover genes whose expression defines ALS using published and public data (3, 4). We found significant differential expression of HS3ST3B1, encoding heparan sulfate-glucosamine 3-sulfotransferase 3B1, in the motor neurons of patients with ALS. HS3ST3B1 was also differentially expressed in primary lower motor neurons isolated from patients with ALS. HS3ST3B1 transcript was present at significantly lower levels in ALS patient motor neurons as compared to control motor neurons. These analyses will begin to define the transcriptional landscape of ALS.

Vocabulary Intervention and Novel Word Learning
Authors: Duff Dawna
Published: October 2022

A prediction of the Reading Systems Framework (RSF) (Perfetti & Stafura, 2014) was tested, namely that lexical knowledge causally relates to text comprehension, which then supports semantic inferencing about novel words in the text. This indirect causal relationship could underly the known association between existing vocabulary and incidental word learning. The effect of lexical semantic intervention was investigated on semantic inferencing about novel words, as mediated by comprehension of text containing both taught and novel words. Participants were English-speaking children (n=23) in 6th grade (M=11;05). Following intervention, participants read texts containing taught words and non-words (treated condition). After reading, they responded to questions about text meaning and meaning of the non-words. Performance was compared within-subjects to a condition in which words in the text were not taught (untreated condition). A path-analytic analysis for within participant mediation showed that the effects of lexical semantics intervention on novel word learning, through an indirect route via text comprehension, was significant (ab=0.417, [0.22, 1.07]. Results supported the existence of an indirect pathway between lexical semantics intervention and incidental word learning, mediated by text comprehension, as predicted by the RSF. This is a possible mechanism for a ‘Matthew effect’ for vocabulary.
A decade of in situ cosmogenic 14C in Antarctica
Authors: Nichols Keir
Published: October 2022

Cosmogenic nuclide measurements in glacial deposits extend ourknowledge of glacier chronologies beyond the observational record. Theshort half-life of in situ cosmogenic 14C makes it particularly useful forstudying glacier chronologies, as resulting exposure ages are lesssensitive to nuclide inheritance when compared with more commonlymeasured, long-lived nuclides. An increasing number of laboratoriesusing an automated process to extract carbon from quartz has led to insitu 14C measurements in Antarctic samples at an accelerating rate overthe past decade, shedding light on deglaciation in Antarctica. In situ 14Chas had the greatest impact in the Weddell Sea Embayment, whereinferences on the thickness of ice and timing of deglaciation were limitedby inheritance in other cosmogenic nuclide systems.

Cognitive maps are thought to arise, at least in part, from our intrinsic curiosity to explore unknown places. However, it remains untested how curiosity shapes aspects of spatial exploration in humans. Combining a virtual reality task with indices of exploration complexity, we found that pre-exploration curiosity states predicted how much individuals spatially explored environments, whereas markers of visual exploration determined post-exploration feelings of interest. Moreover, individual differences in curiosity traits, particularly Stress Tolerance, modulated the relationship between curiosity and spatial exploration, suggesting the capacity to cope with uncertainty enhances the curiosity-exploration link. Furthermore, both curiosity and spatial exploration predicted how precisely participants could recall spatial-relational details of the environment, as measured by a sketch map task. These results provide new evidence for a link between curiosity and exploratory behaviour, and how curiosity might shape cognitive map formation.
Task complexity affects exogenous but not endogenous components of switch cost

Published: October 2022

A review of 29 papers from the task switching literature reveals no relationship between the time taken to repeat a task and the additional time taken when switching between tasks (switch cost). A visual discrimination task and a schematic judgement task differing in complexity according to a principled model of cognition show that the endogenous component of switch cost was not affected by the difference in task complexity, but the exogenous component was, even when repeat task completion time was taken into account. The endogenous component is interpreted as a constant overhead related to the time taken to retrieve task schemata, while the exogenous component is related to the number of processing components involved in a task.
Is suicidality an outcome or a cause of extreme relationship-seeking in borderline personality disorder?
Authors: Wiley James Christopher
Published: October 2022

Previous theory proposes that humans perceive ordinary objects and experiences as beautiful, which motivates the pursuit of life. This quality is crucial among organisms that are cognitively capable of understanding that they can end their own suffering through self-killing (i.e., suicide). This paper argues that borderline personality disorder (BPD) is characterized by an inability to find beauty in ordinary experiences, which results in increased susceptibility to suicide. Accordingly, individuals with BPD pursue meaningful relationships to supplement this deficiency. Thus, those with BPD are hypothesized to have increased emotional sensitivity to interpersonal contexts, but muted emotional responses to ordinary experiences that elicit awe or happiness in others (e.g., pictures of landscapes, poetry about nature, etc.). Suicidality in individuals with BPD is often precipitated by fear of separation or rejection. At first glance this may appear as a bargaining tactic, designed to rekindle a dying relationship. Alternatively, this paper suggests that a predisposition to suicide is causal of extreme relationship-seeking behaviour in BPD. Additionally, this theory suggests that those with BPD who do not meet the interpersonal criteria for the disorder may be at a heightened risk of suicidality, because they have fewer objects to derive beauty from.
Erroneous Consonance. How Inaccurate Beliefs about Physician Opinion Influence COVID-19 Vaccine Hesitancy

Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, researchers have studied how Americans' attitudes toward health experts influence their health behaviors and policy opinions. Fewer, however, consider the potential gap between individual and expert opinion about COVID-19, and how that might shape health attitudes and behavior. This omission is notable, as discrepancies between individual and expert opinion could help explain why some Americans fail to take action to protect themselves and others from the virus. In novel demographically representative surveys of the US adult population (N = 5,482) and primary care physician subpopulations (PCPs; N = 625), we contrast the relationship between: (1) Americans’ and (2) PCPs' preferences regarding who ought to be responsible for taking action to combat the spread of COVID-19, as well as (3) Americans' perceptions of PCP preferences ("PCP meta-opinion"). In the aggregate, we find that Americans are far less likely than PCPs to see a role for both private and state actors in taking action to combat COVID-19. Interestingly, though, this disjuncture is not reflected in individual-level PCP meta-opinion; as most Americans think that PCPs share their views on state and private intervention (𝛕b = 0.44 - 0.49). However, this consonance is often erroneous, which we show can have problematic health consequences. Multivariate models suggest that Americans who both see little place for individual responsibility in taking action to stop viral spread and who think that PCPs share those views are significantly less likely to vaccinate against COVID-19. We conclude by discussing the public health benefits of efforts to bring public opinion in line with expert opinion.

ABSTRACKThe problem of nutrition, especially stunting in children, is one of the nutritional deficiencies that has become a major concern in the world, especially in developing countries, which impacts the slow growth of children, low endurance, lack of intelligence, and low productivity. The purpose of this study was to determine the correlation of LBW and Nutrition Parenting with the Stunting Incidence in Tabumela Village. This research is an analytic survey research and uses cross sectional research design. The sampling technique in this study is total sampling with a total sample of 30 toddlers. The results obtained by the chi square test results obtained by Pvalue for LBW factor that is 0.009 and for nutritional parenting factor which is 0.000, which means less than α = 0.05. This research is expected to be useful as a source to prevent stunting. The better the mother's parenting be and the lower the incidence of LBW in infants, will result in the lower the incidence of stunting.ABSTRAKPermasalahan gizi, khususnya stunting pada anak merupakan salah satu keadaan kekurangan gizi yang menjadi perhatian utama di dunia terutama di negara-negara berkembang, memberikan dampak lambatnya pertumbuhan anak, daya tahan tubuh yang rendah, kurangnya kecerdasan, dan produktivitas yang rendah.
