Public University Modes of Communications: A Study of Student Preferences
Authors: Root Teri , C. Wyld David , Palmisano Joseph , Weber Maya
Published: April 2021

While there has been a plethora of research in higher education concerning how instructors communicate directly with students in their classes, there has been a paucity of work regarding the subject of the present study, which is how do - and how should - universities most effectively communicate with current students bout non-instructional information and news. The present study took place at a publicly-funded, regional state university in the Southeast United States and incorporated an extensive email sampling of students. The findings showed that today’s largely Gen Z students have important communication preferences that need to be taken into consideration by university leaders as they consider how to best communicate non-instructional messages to them. The study has important implications for university leaders to consider as to how to most effectively make use of text and email, as well as social media platforms, in their communications strategy for non-instructional matters and university news.

Authors: Oruthotaarachchi C.R. , Wijayanayake W M J I
Published: April 2021

Business Process Management (BPM) is considered as a management approach that primarily focuses on analyzing and continuously improving business processes. It has been a key strategy adapted by organizations to manage their businesses successfully along with information technology. In the past few decades BPM has been one of the promising research areas. This paper adds knowledge to the existing research by answering following questions: (1) what is the status of BPM research domain? And (2) what are the possible future research directions on BPM? A thematic review was conducted focusing a series of literature on BPM which have been published between 2001 and 2020. The findings highlight that the integration of BPM into new digital innovations, such as process mining, is essential for an effective and efficient organization. More research on BPM and IT management needs to be conducted to support this integration between BPM and digital innovations.
Applying the Health Belief Model to Cardiac Implanted Medical Device Patients
Authors: W. Jackson George , Rahman Shawon
Published: April 2021

Wireless Implanted Medical Devices (WIMD) are helping millions of users experience a better quality of life. Because of their many benefits, these devices are experiencing dramatic growth in usage, application, and complexity. However, this rapid growth has precipitated an equally rapid growth of cybersecurity risks and threats. While it is apparent from the literature WIMD cybersecurity is a shared responsibility among manufacturers, healthcare providers, and patients; what explained what role patients should play in WIMD cybersecurity and how patients should be empowered to assume this role. The health belief model (HBM) was applied as the theoretical framework for a multiple case study which examined the question: How are the cybersecurity risks and threats related to wireless implanted medical devices being communicated to patients who have or will have these devices implanted in their bodies? The subjects of this multiple case study were sixteen cardiac device specialists in the U.S., each possessing at least one year of experience working directly with cardiac implanted medical device (CIMD) patients, who actively used cardiac device home monitoring systems. The HBM provides a systematic framework suitable for the proposed research. Because of its six-decade history of validity and its extraordinary versatility, the health belief model, more efficiently than any other model considered, provides a context for understanding and interpreting the results of this study. Thus, the theoretical contribution of this research is to apply the HBM in a setting where it has never been applied before, WIMD patient cybersecurity awareness. This analysis (using a multiple case study) will demonstrate how the HBM can assist the health practitioners, regulators, manufacturers, security practitioners, and the research community in better understanding the factors, which support WIMD patient cybersecurity awareness and subsequent adherence to cybersecurity best practices.

Published: April 2021

Social isolation during the pandemic has exacerbated the problems of psychological support for families with a child with sensory impairments. The problem of analyzing the role of parents in correcting the development of children with disabilities, in particular, with sensory impairments, is examined from the standpoint of their functional responsibilities, but the actual state of affairs, in particular, the choice of reaction and adaptation strategies of the parents in families with such children, taking into account modern technological possibilities of correcting the health status of the children themselves. The article presents the generalized results of a study of coping behavior of parents in families with children with hearing impairments, conducted in 2018-2021 on the basis of the St. Petersburg State Public Healthcare Institution "Children's City Surdological Center". The problems that parents face when choosing strategies and models of coping behavior are systematized and are presented from the point of view of the psychological analysis of the social attitude toward the role and status of a child within a family.
Interpretación del paradigma «Student Engagement» en España (una revisión bibliométrica)
Authors: Catalán Martínez Elena , Aparicio de Castro Gloria
Published: April 2021

En este trabajo pretendemos valorar el impacto y la interpretación que se ha hecho del concepto «Student Engagement» en el sistema universitario español. Para ello, hemos creído oportuno revisar las aportaciones realizadas en los últimos cinco años en los principales congresos internaciona­les en innovación docente universitaria celebrados en España y las publicaciones de ámbito nacional que sobre este tema aparecen registradas en las bases de datos de Scopus y Web of Science. Con ello, delimitaremos no solo el impacto del Student Engagement entre los docentes nacionales e inter­nacionales que participan en estos foros, sino tam­bién la interpretación que hacen de dicho concepto.
La revisión de documentos y nuestra propia posición como docentes nos hace reflexionar sobre una pro­puesta que pueda guiar futuras líneas de investiga­ción en el tema. En este sentido, consideramos que la gestión de la universidad, especialmente en el sis­tema español, aún no se realiza teniendo en cuenta una visión holística de la experiencia del estudiante universitario. Para desarrollar plenamente las tres dimensiones de actuación sobre el Student Enga­gement será necesario un enfoque multidisciplinar que considere tanto las aportaciones más puras del management, del university experiential marketing, como las de las educational sciences con sus cono­cimientos en metodologías docentes.

Displacement is one of stylistic terms and concepts, which appeared with modern poetry, especially in poetry, because poetic Language is popular with scholars and thinkers, and ancient Arab studies have paid attention to this phenomenon, but it has been expressed in other terms, such as counting, turning, violating, and paradoxical, poetic necessity and other terms,(some may think that displacement affects only expressions and structures but rather transcends them to images, ideas, meanings, vocalization, and even at the level of Letters), it is a departure from the usual and usual to formulate new meanings on other meanings that fit the poetic text, which is Also an Aesthetic addition, through which the creator transmits his emotional experience to the recipient end works to influence him, because the displacement from his departure from the ordinary achieves aesthetic and expressive value.
The Muwashahat in the Studies of Recent Researchers: A Prosody Study
Authors: Al-Rawi Sahar Muhammad Mawloud Shafiq , Al-Alwani Amer Mahidi Saleh
Published: April 2021

This study deals with the emerging arts of poetry, and the extent of their deviation from Khalili poetry, for Arab poetry has remained for ages controlled by the balance of the known poem since the pre-Islamic era. The syntactic aspects of this balance are based by Al-Khalil. However, with the development of Arab civilization and its mixing with other civilizations, attempts to depart from Al- Khalili system in its various forms began. The most prominent of these deviations are the seven poetic arts: Al-Muwashahat, Al-Dobbit, Al-Zajal, Al- Aquma, Al- Mawalia, Al-Band and Al-Kan Wa Kan, which are the beginning of a stepping stone to poetic renewal in the modern era.

Let D be a balanced bipartite digraph of order 2a ≥ 6. We prove that (i) If d(x)+d(y) ≥ 3a for every pair of vertices x, y from the same partite set, then D contains cycles of all even lengths 2, 4, . . . , 2a, in particular, D is Hamiltonian. (ii) If D is other than a directed cycle of length 2a and d(x) + d(y) ≥ 3a for every pair of vertices x, y with a common out-neighbor or in-neighbor, then either D contains cycles of all even lengths 2, 4, . . . , 2a or d(u) + d(v) ≥ 3a for every pair of vertices u, v from the same partite set. Moreover, by (i), D contains cycles of all even lengths 2, 4, . . . , 2a, in particular, D is Hamiltonian.

Multi Agency Response to International Terrorism in Kenya: A Comparison of Dusit D2 and Westgate Terror Attacks
Authors: Musoma Albert Lusiola
Published: April 2021

This study set out to assess responses to international terrorism in Kenya. This stems out of the fact that the terrorism menace has had been a major security challenge facing the country. The study draws a comparison of the Dusit D2 and Westgate terror attacks. Data was collected from a purposive sample of academics as well as serving and retired diplomats, senior police officers and military personnel. Primary data was collected from the respondents using interviews. The findings show that the West gate shopping mall in 2013 and the DusitD2 Hotel attack in January 2019 are replete with major differences. A critical comparison between both attacks shows an immense difference in the response to the terrorist attacks in Westgate Mall and Dust D2. In both cases, there was prior intelligence of the looming attack. However, there was no clear policy framework on intelligence sharing between the various security agencies in Westgate. Additionally, policies on timely multiagency deployment were disjointed in Westgate but improved in Dusit D2. Although the friendly fire was recorded in Westgate, this was not the case in Westgate. There was also a lack of clear policies on hierarchical coordination between different security agencies in Westgate Mall as opposed to Dusit D2. The law had also been more enhanced with the domestication of the 2012 Prevention of Terrorism Act and the creation of the institutions enshrined therein during the Dusit D2 attack. Accountability mechanisms for security agencies had also been improved during the Dusit D2 attack as opposed to Westgate Mall attack where there were cases of indiscipline and looting by state security personnel. Coordination between government officials and security agencies was also smoother in the Dusit D2 attack. Although the terrorists could communicate for some time between themselves and their command center and share publicity information, this was not the case with Dusit D2 where such communication was curtailed immediately. In both attacks though, communication between victims and outside help was poor and unreliable, and false information was passed. This was more prone and documented in the Dusit D2 attack. It is recommended that multiagency response teams should constantly review their operation guidelines and standard operating procedures so as to deal with the ever-changing sophistication in terrorist attacks. The government should put in place ways aimed at checking disparities in capabilities and equipment among various tactical and intelligence teams in Kenya for a uniform response to terrorism. There is a need for multinational frameworks for undertaking financing and creation of joint information infrastructure for security agencies so as to reign in on international terrorism in the East African Region. Training should also be synchronized across security agencies.

SoilKsatDB: global database of soil saturated hydraulic conductivity measurements for geoscience applications
Authors: Gupta Surya , Hengl Tomislav , Lehmann Peter , Bonetti Sara , Or Dani
Published: April 2021

Abstract. The saturated soil hydraulic conductivity (Ksat) is a key parameter in many hydrological and climate models. Ksat values are primarily determined from basic soil properties and may vary over several orders of magnitude. Despite the availability of Ksat datasets in the literature, significant efforts are required to combine the data before they can be used for specific applications. In this work, a total of 13 258 Ksat measurements from 1908 sites were assembled from the published literature and other sources, standardized (i.e., units made identical), and quality checked in order to obtain a global database of soil saturated hydraulic conductivity (SoilKsatDB). The SoilKsatDB covers most regions across the globe, with the highest number of Ksat measurements from North America, followed by Europe, Asia, South America, Africa, and Australia. In addition to Ksat, other soil variables such as soil texture (11 584 measurements), bulk density (11 262 measurements), soil organic carbon (9787 measurements), moisture content at field capacity (7382), and wilting point (7411) are also included in the dataset. To show an application of SoilKsatDB, we derived Ksat pedotransfer functions (PTFs) for temperate regions and laboratory-based soil properties (sand and clay content, bulk density). Accurate models can be fitted using a random forest machine learning algorithm (best concordance correlation coefficient (CCC) equal to 0.74 and 0.72 for temperate area and laboratory measurements, respectively). However, when these Ksat PTFs are applied to soil samples obtained from tropical climates and field measurements, respectively, the model performance is significantly lower (CCC = 0.49 for tropical and CCC = 0.10 for field measurements). These results indicate that there are significant differences between Ksat data collected in temperate and tropical regions and Ksat measured in the laboratory or field. The SoilKsatDB dataset is available at https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.3752721 (Gupta et al., 2020) and the code used to extract the data from the literature and the applied random forest machine learning approach are publicly available under an open data license.

Authors: ERSÖZ Bilge , Karaoğlanoğlu Serpil , Oktay Elif Aybala , Aydın Numan
Published: April 2021

Purpose: This study investigated discoloration and surface roughness (Ra) of resin-based computer aided design (CAD)/computer aided manufacturing (CAM) blocks and direct and indirect resin composites after staining with coffee. Materials & Methods: Using a Teflon mold, 60 disc shaped specimens (8×2 mm2) were fabricated from direct (Estelite Asteria and GrandioSO) and indirect (Gradia Plus) resin composites, and 30 resin CAD/CAM specimens (12×14×2 mm3) were prepared from resin composite CAD/CAM blocks (Vita Enamic, Brilliant Crios, and Cerasmart) (n=10). A contact type profilometer was used to determine the Ra of all 60 polished samples. All specimens were thermocycled between 5 and 55°C for 3000 cycles, and immersed in coffee solution (37°C) for 1 and 7 days. A spectrophotometer was used to determine the color change (∆E00) with the CIEDE2000 formula after the specimens were re-polished. One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) and Tukey multiple comparison test was performed to analyze the data (p<0.05). Results: The lowest degree of discoloration among the materials tested was found in Vita Enamic resin CAD/CAM block (p<0.001), whereas the highest degree of discoloration was found in the Gradia Plus indirect composite (p<0.001). There was no significant difference was seen between the initial surface roughness values (Ra) among the groups (p=0.249). No significant improvement was observed in the color of the groups except for the Cerasmart resin block after after polishing. Conclusion: Direct resin composites have a higher discoloration potential over resin-based CAD/CAM blocks, whereas they are less prone to discoloration than indirect resin composites
Sosyolojiye Çağrı: Sahayı Deneyimlemenin Düşünümselliği Üzerine
Authors: Sağır Adem
Published: April 2021

This study is concerned with the deciphering of the mental contacts that the students of the sociology department establish with sociology. The founding assumption of the study is to reach the "ghosts" created by sociology in the mind of the individual who is in contact with sociology. The concept of ghost refers to the shadows that sociology creates in the mind. This reference includes the mental patterns of the person after beginning their sociology education. In the data analysis of the study, the interpretive phenomenology approach was preferred. Research data were collected through semi-structured interviews with the participants. First and second-year sociology students who took the Introduction to Sociology and Applied Sociological Studies courses were selected as the sample in the study. In the study, it was aimed to stimulate the information that the participants learned before. During this stimulation, sociologist candidates' belief in sociological knowledge and experiencing how that knowledge can be used was considered as the stage of preparing the mind to depict the quality they attribute to sociology. The narratives have been produced directly related to the social sphere itself. It is aimed to present the ability of sociological knowledge to produce multiple perspectives inherently in narratives. The main concern in using this inclusion is to reveal the functionality of sociological knowledge in the minds of the participants and what it looks like. In this context, the participants were asked "What does sociology mean to you?". Participants were asked to draw a picture on an A4 paper. The pictures obtained were analyzed with the interpretive phenomenological analysis approach.

Published: April 2021

Background: Trigger finger is the most common disease that causing pain in the adult population. Trigger finger may occur at any finger, which usually occurs in the thumb and ring finger. A1 pulley sheath or metacarpal-phalangeal joint. There is a different recommendation toward treatment options for trigger fingers in adults and pediatrics.
Method: This paper is done by reviewing and searching journals with “trigger finger”, “treatment”, “pediatric trigger finger”, and “adult trigger finger” on the search engines. The authors found 45 journals that were suitable for our references.
Outcome: Trigger finger treatments vary as there are many acceptable treatment options. There is a different choice of therapy that should be considered in adult and pediatric trigger fingers. This should be considered to get better treatment outcomes. Cost analysis is also important to choose the most cost-effective treatment for trigger finger patients.
Conclusion: There is no exact consensus recommendation for choosing the exact treatment. pediatric trigger finger is caused by a multifactorial aspect resulting in unpredictable conservative treatment outcomes unlike in adults. The majority of trigger fingers in pediatrics will need surgical procedures while some cases of adult trigger fingers may resolve naturally. Further large studies are needed to develop a treatment algorithm in these two age groups that trigger fingers.

Keywords: adult trigger finger, trigger finger, pediatric trigger finger, treatment.

developed telescope control software, and made the guiding system. In the Special
Astrophysical Observatory the 4k×4k Apogee (USA) liquid-cooled CCD was reworked
and prepared. Detector was mounted in the focus of the telescope and provides 1
degree field of view with pixel-size of 0.868, and RON∼11e−. The detector is
equipped with a turret with 5 holes for filters. The 20 intermediate-band filters
(FWHM= 250A) uniformly covering the 4000–9000 AA wavelength range, five
broadband filters (u, g, r, i, z SDSS), and three narrow-band filters.
During the first year of test operation of the 1-m telescope we performed pilot
observations within the framework of three programs: search for young stellar
objects, AGN evolution, and stellar composition of galaxy disks. We confirmed the
possibility of efficiently selecting of young objects using observations performed in
narrow-band Hα and [S II]filters and the intermediate-band 7500̊Afilter.Three-hours
long exposures with SDSS g, r, and i band filters allow us to reach the surface
brightness level of 28m from square arcsecond when investigating the stellar content
of galaxy disks for a sample of nine galaxies. We used observations performed with
the 1-m telescope in five broadband (SDSS u, g, r, i, and z) and 15 intermediate-band
filters (4000–7500A) to construct a sample of quasar candidates with 0.5<z<5(330 objects) in about one-sq. degree SA 68 field complete down to RAB=23m. Spectroscopic observations of 29 objects (19.m5<R<22m) carried out at the 6-m telescope of the Special Astrophysical Observatory of the Russian Academy of Sciences confirmed the quasar nature of 28 objects.
Revised optical classification of “LINERs”
Authors: Abrahamyan H. , Mickaelian A. , Mikayelyan G. , Paronyan G.
Published: April 2021

This work is dedicated to reclassification of LINERs. For our investigation we use the
catalogueVéron-Cetty&Véron13th edition. In this catalogue 926 LINERs are included.
Cross-correlation of these sources with SDSS DR14 gives 176 objects which have
spectra in SDSS. Having medium-resolution spectra from SDSS we have done reclassification of these sources. As a result,54% of these sources have changed their
classification.
Toward understanding of the origin of the B[e] phenomenon in FS CMa type objects
Authors: Miroshnichenko A. S.
Published: April 2021

Large amounts of circumstellar material accompany lives of most stars at different evolutionary stages. Formation mechanisms of these, often disk-like envelopes are not always clear. The B[e] phenomenon includes the presence of permitted and forbidden line emission and strong infrared (IR) excess in radiation observed from stars of the B and early-A types. It is found in several groups of mostly binary systems. The recently defined FS CMa group is thought to have their gas-and-dust disks due to an earlier strong mass-transfer between the binary system components. FS CMa objects seem to possess longliving disks, whose properties have not been studied well. I will be reviewing the group properties and results of a long-term monitoring program of some of its members with a focus on detected variations of the brightness and spectrum.

Policy-Making of the Persian Gulf States Based on the Sustainable Development Goals in 2030 Agenda
Authors: Naderi Shima
Published: April 2021

The closure of the Persian Gulf environment and the passage of tankers and the overuse of this region beyond international standards, have endangered the environmental status of this gulf. The dissemination of maritime culture, water economy and the inclusion of its policies in the laws of the eight countries of the Persian Gulf is essential to achieve sustainable development, given its various dimensions and practices. The main question is how effective the performance of Persian Gulf states can be in sustainably developing the marine environment of the Persian Gulf with emphasis on economic, social and environmental indicators of sustainable development? This article has analyzed the performance of the Persian Gulf countries in relation to the sustainable development of the marine environment, in an analytical manner and as a library research and, thus, laws should be applied in the Persian Gulf region as a general obligation of governments to protect the marine environment, in the form of a system of regional cooperation. Consequently, it can be expressed that achieving sustainable development in the marine environment of the Persian Gulf, can only be made possible via all of the eight countries playing the optimal role in interaction with each other and the strict implementation of international agreements on marine pollution prevention. The application of the 17 SDGs and the indicators mentioned in the domestic laws of the regional countries, may provide opportunities for developed and developing countries to strengthen cooperation and partnership to attain ambitions and goals of sustainable development through protecting and using their resources properly. Ultimately, we will find out that the development of the indicators is influenced by the significant impact of the policies of influential governments.

Inspection supervision of the Tax and Customs Administration from an international perspective

The cabinet has decided to set up a national inspectorate with the task of supervising the quality and the rule of law of the public services provided by the tax authorities. The reason for this is the persistent problems surrounding the Tax and Customs Administration for years (organization, management, IT, personnel) and more recently the crisis surrounding the supplementary child benefit. The Netherlands is not the first and will soon not be the only country with a special regulator for the tax authorities and which focuses on legal protection of taxpayers and the quality of the service. In this article, we ask ourselves how the institution of the new Dutch inspectorate relates to the situation in various foreign countries and we examine which dilemmas and policy questions these raise. We note that with this new inspection the Netherlands is in tune with the situation in various foreign countries. Regarding the relationship and cooperative relationship with the National Ombudsman, the guarantee of the independent and impartial exercise of inspection supervision and the increasing importance of a Charter of the rights of taxpayers, a few important policy questions remain in a comparative sense.
Art, Science and the Poetry of Justice – Pragmatist Aesthetics and Its Importance for Law and Legal Education
Authors: de Been Wouter

Art, Science and the Poetry of Justice – Pragmatist Aesthetics and Its Importance for Law and Legal Education Special Issue on Pragmatism and Legal Education Sanne Taekema & Thomas Riesthuis (eds.)

Classic pragmatists like John Dewey entertained an encompassing notion of science. This pragmatic belief in the continuities between a scientific, ethical and cultural understanding of the world went into decline in the middle of the 20th century. To many mid-century American and English philosophers it suggested a simplistic faith that philosophy and science could address substantive questions about values, ethics and aesthetics in a rigorous way. This critique of classic pragmatism has lost some of its force in the last few decades with the rise of neo-pragmatism, but it still has a hold over disciplines like economics and law. In this article I argue that this criticism of pragmatism is rooted in a narrow conception of what science entails and what philosophy should encompass. I primarily focus on one facet: John Dewey’s work on art and aesthetics. I explain why grappling with the world aesthetically, according to Dewey, is closely related to dealing with it scientifically, for instance, through the poetic and aesthetic development of metaphors and concepts to come to terms with reality. This makes his theory of art relevant, I argue, not only to studying and understanding law, but also to teaching law.
DIREITO A FELICIDADE COMO PRINCÍPIO NORTEADOR MÁXIMO DA FUNÇÃO DO ESTADO
Authors: Probst João Gabriel Campregher
Published: April 2021

O homem é um ser social, sendo natural e necessário que este venha a conviver em sociedade, no entanto, é igualmente um ser complexo e cotidianamente as vontades dos homens são conflitantes, o que faz surgir diversos conflitos em sociedade, logo, é necessário que exista uma força política capaz, o Estado, capaz de limitar a ação do homem com o intuito de possibilitar a vida em sociedade, em outras palavras, para que o homem não seja o lobo do homem. Desta forma, o Estado encontra fundamento justamente na garantia da vida em sociedade, e por consequência na manutenção da vida de seus cidadãos, acontece que na modernidade sobreviver apenas não basta, é necessário condições para uma vida boa e feliz, conclui-se, modernamente, que é função do Estado colaborar para que o indivíduo, no limite do possível, seja feliz, uma vez que não se vive para ser triste, ou ao menos que não crie obstáculos injustos à felicidade. Assim, entende-se que em respeito ao seu próprio propósito de existência o Estado deve perceber o homem não apenas como um pagador de tributos mas sim como um ser humano sujeito de direito e capaz de exercer vontades e decisões sobre a vida particular. Desta forma, pretende-se argumentar que a função do Estado deve ter na felicidade de seus cidadãos princípio fundamental máximo, assim o poder judiciário e/ou a Administração Pública ao lidar com demandas deve interpretar como a ação ou omissão atinge a felicidade, injusta ou justamente, do demandante. Ainda, considera-se que a felicidade é parte integrante da dignidade humana, não sendo necessário assim modificação constitucional tendo a felicidade presença originária na Constituição.
