Published: October 2024

Introduction: Faced with the most serious public health threat of the 21st century, several actions have been suggested worldwide to prevent and control the spread of COVID-19.
Objective: To understand which of these actions have been assimilated, here we evaluated the knowledge, perceptions, and practices acquired and/or improved by undergraduate students.
Methods: This cross-sectional quantitative study was conducted at a public university in Minas Gerais, Brazil. Data were collected via an online questionnaire distributed through university social networks between November 3 and December 18, 2020. The questionnaire, comprising 64 questions, assessed students' knowledge, perceptions, and practices related to COVID-19. Descriptive statistics and chi-square tests were used for analysis.
Results: Of 207 participants, 59.4% have worked outside the home during the study period. However, most students claimed to have respected social isolation, worn masks, and had appropriate hygiene practices. Most students intend to maintain prevention/control practices, which were mostly learned from social media, after the pandemic ends. Students were optimistic about the control of COVID-19 in the near future, but many have claimed to be mentally shaken and unmotivated. Most endorse vaccination and are against applying treatments without scientific evidence.
Conclusion: This study provides a novel insight into the perceptions and practices of university students from various academic disciplines in Brazil regarding COVID-19. The findings underscore the ongoing need for targeted interventions addressing both the physical and mental health challenges faced by university students, which remain relevant even after the end of the pandemic.

Published: October 2024

Efficient scheduling of natural gas energy resources within the steel industry faces many challenges, as this sector does not have the necessary measures and tools to support its efficient management. In this study, a forecasting approach to natural gas consumption is proposed using the predictive technique of multiple linear regression. For the development of the proposed model, the main variables related to natural gas consumption that will make up the predictive model are established. The evaluation of the model was carried out using data from a steel company in Mexico. The results of mean absolute percentage error, root mean square error and mean absolute deviation of RLM models (MAPE: 10.23%, RMSE: 20492.32, DAM: 20009.03) vs. traditional method (MAPE: 34.05%, RMSE:93055.92, DAM: 65170.91), reflect that the proposed models significantly improve natural gas resource management, providing substantial improvement in natural gas consumption volume estimates for proper energy scheduling.
A multi-adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system with variable thresholds for heartbeat classification
Authors: Rafieisangari Roghayeh , Shiri Nabiollah
Published: October 2024

Various heart disorders are non-invasively diagnosed using electrocardiograms (ECGs). An ECG records a variety of waveforms, including P, QRS, and T waves, which represent the electrical activity of the human heart. Cardiovascular diseases are diagnosed by examining the length, form, and spacing of these waveforms. This research develops a multi-adaptive, neuro-fuzzy inference system (MANFIS), enhanced by a variable threshold approach, to enhance heartbeat classification accuracy. The MIT-BIH arrhythmia database was utilized, and seven features were extracted from each record. A subtractive clustering method was employed to prepare the inputs for the MANFIS, enabling heartbeat classification. By applying a variable threshold to the MANFIS outputs, classification accuracy was further enhanced. The proposed method, termed variable-threshold MANFIS, can separately detect normal sinus rhythm, left bundle branch block, right bundle branch block, premature ventricular contraction, atrial premature condition, and paced beat. This is achieved using six different ANFIS classifiers, each with its own threshold. The system was evaluated, achieving an accuracy of 98.33%, a sensitivity of 93.12%, a specificity of 99.66%, a precision of 98.33, and an F1-score of 95.44. A distinct feature of this machine-learning-based model is its controllable threshold, which delivers promising results across all training, testing, and validation datasets. The proposed diagnostic system is applicable in new automated medical instrumentation and serves as a valuable tool in cardiology.

Authors: Hannitya Aulia Putri  , Rizanda Mahmud  , Wihardi Triman
Published: October 2024

Patient satisfaction is a critical indicator of healthcare quality, particularly in resource-constrained settings where efficient and effective care is paramount. This study aimed to explore the multifaceted nature of outpatient satisfaction at a private Indonesian hospital, moving beyond the traditional focus on empathy to understand the interplay of various service quality dimensions. A mixed-methods sequential explanatory design was employed. The quantitative phase involved a survey of 400 outpatients, measuring their satisfaction with five service quality dimensions: tangibles, reliability, responsiveness, empathy, and assurance. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, Importance-Performance Analysis (IPA), and gap analysis (suitability index). The qualitative phase utilized in-depth interviews and focus group discussions with patients, staff, and management to provide context and depth to the quantitative findings. While overall patient satisfaction was 82.9%, a gap analysis revealed substantial discrepancies between patient expectations and perceptions across several service quality dimensions. Tangibles, reliability, and responsiveness emerged as key areas requiring improvement. Qualitative findings highlighted extended wait times, inconsistent staff communication, and concerns about the physical environment as significant contributors to patient dissatisfaction. Achieving high levels of patient satisfaction in resource-constrained environments necessitates a comprehensive approach that addresses systemic inefficiencies and communication gaps alongside interpersonal factors like empathy. These findings underscore the need for targeted interventions to optimize resource allocation, streamline processes, and enhance staff communication skills to improve the patient experience.

Authors: Tushabe Sylivia Byarugaba , Ssempala Fredrick
Published: October 2024

Despite possessing technical skills, many hospitality graduates in Southwestern Uganda struggle to secure employment. This suggests a possible deficiency in their socio-emotional abilities. The study investigated the mediating effect of socio-emotional disposition in the relationship between technical skills and graduate employability. The research design employed in this study was the cross-sectional quantitative research method with a population of 640 graduates and a sample size of 400 was established for hospitality graduates based on Krejcie, & Morgan’s (1970) table and formula. The data was collected employing questionnaires and the data analysis was done by SPSS V. 23 and Smart PLS V 4. The results revealed that the technical skills and socio-emotional disposition of graduates have significant direct effects on the graduates’ employability, with path coefficients of (β = 0.348, p < 0.001) for technical skills and (β = 0.716, p< 0.001) for socio-emotional disposition. Sensitively, socio-emotional disposition was also reported to mediate the link between technical skill and employability (β = 0.438, p<0.001). Thus, socio-emotional disposition increases the level of readiness for employment. The study indicates technical competencies are mandatory prerequisites to getting a job in the hospitality industry; socio-emotional competencies enhance these results. The study recommended that carrying out tracer studies and skills audits, mentorship schemes, certification of future graduates, creating a strong linkage between higher educational institutions (HEIs) and the hospitality sector, and authorities should take into account the programs that encourage socio-emotional enhancement appropriate to the needs of the sector

Counterfactual curiosity in real decisions: The roles of outcome valence and aging
Authors: Bogani Alessandro , Tentori Katya , Timberlake Benjamin , Pighin Stefania
Published: October 2024

Non-instrumental counterfactual curiosity (i.e., the search for information about forgone options that is not useful for improving future outcomes) has especially been observed after outcomes perceived as negative and, consequently, attributed to forms of regret management. In three online experiments (N = 620), we extended the study of counterfactual curiosity about economically incentivized decisions in younger and older adults. Participants played independent rounds of a card-drawing game by choosing one of two decks to turn over the top, covered card, which could increase, decrease, or have no effect on an initial endowment. Following that, they could examine the top card of the other deck to see if and how the outcome could have differed. Experiment 1 featured identical decks, making the choice between them random. In Experiment 2, participants made a deliberate choice between a riskier and a safer deck, each varying in the extremity of potential wins and losses. In Experiment 3, the decks were identical to those in Experiment 2, but access to counterfactual information was contingent upon participants forfeiting part of their endowment. Results showed a relevant portion of both younger and older adults displayed curiosity for non-instrumental counterfactual information, especially when it was free and likely to reveal that the forgone option would have been better than the chosen one. Older adults exhibited a higher level of curiosity than younger counterparts only when choices were deliberate and counterfactual information was free. These findings are discussed in relation to current perspectives on the regret-management function of counterfactual curiosity.

The new quality of the Russian economy: strategy and tactics
Authors:   Institute of National Economic Forecasting of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Shirov A.A.
Published: October 2024

In 2024, Russia is entering a new electoral cycle, which involves both the formation of new development goals and certain shifts in economic policy. The new Presidential Decree on national development goals sets the general framework for the country's development for the next six years. It contains about 70 development goals, most of which are quantitative, which forms a new framework for both making management decisions and monitoring their implementation. The Russian expert community and academic economics should provide analytical support for decision-making on the implementation of national development goals. The most difficult and in-demand task is scientific and technological forecasting, which combines an understanding of the essence of a number of scientific solutions and an assessment of the economic efficiency of their implementation. There is a direct link between technological shifts and the level of labor productivity, which is the most important response to the challenges associated with changes in the labor market. The issues of structural imbalances of supply and demand and the impact of tax innovations on them are also the place where the intellectual efforts of the expert community and the Russian economic academic science are applied.

Improving economic security is a complex task that requires a comprehensive approach. As you know, the most important and most expensive resource is information, it is not for nothing that they say: "Whoever owns information owns the world." With the constant development of technology and an increase in the volume of digital data, information security is becoming an important competitive advantage, plays a significant role and underlies the economic sustainability of enterprises. Information security in the field of economics covers a wide range of issues, ranging from investments in cyber defense to the consequences of cyber attacks on financial markets. The article examines the main aspects of economic relations in the field of information security, as well as its impact on the national and global economy.

The article discusses the problems of restrictions on agricultural exports, price disproportions and overproduction in Russian agriculture. Based on a retrospective analysis, it is concluded that food security problems cannot be adequately solved solely through foreign trade regulation and administrative pressure. The article is aimed at describing approaches to the development of a balanced agricultural policy that takes into account the conflicting interests of market participants and the variability of foreign economic and domestic conditions.
Darwin’s Chronicles of Seasickness
Authors: Popovic Ana
Published: October 2024

This article explores Charles Darwin’s accounts of seasickness as archival repositories of ugly feelings. It draws on Darwin’s invocation of the “crip uncanny” to argue that the uncanny has been historically constructed as a crip feeling, an affective tendency of ill bodies. Describing seasickness as a pandemonium in which “animals [were] staring [him] in the face, without labels & scientific epitaphs,” Darwin brings attention to an uncanny collapse of the human/nonhuman animacy hierarchy that takes place in illness: dead animals become agents of knowledge production, and the ill scientist transforms into a supine, scrutinized body. First, this article suggests that Darwin’s uncanny becoming-specimen challenges Deleuzian and new materialist figurations of becoming as a cultivated practice of ecstasy and joy. By emphasizing the necessity of practicing caution in the act of becoming, Deleuzian philosophies universalize the subject-in-becoming as able-bodied, effectively excluding from their considerations instances of crip becoming, which are bound up with negative affect. Finally, the article proposes that Darwin’s crip becoming-specimen had epistemic effects: it challenged the creationist framework that Darwin still endorsed in the early 1830s, gesturing at the uncanny possibility of species transmutation.
Embodying Tourette’s Syndrome in Young Adult Literature
Authors: Connor David J. , Schieble Melissa
Published: October 2024

The article foregrounds two protagonists with Tourette Syndrome (TS) from contemporary Young Adult (YA) novels written by authors with TS. Grounded in the interdisciplinary field of cultural disability studies in education (CDSE), each protagonist is analyzed for (1) physical manifestations of TS (external depiction), (2) emotional reactions about having TS (internal depiction), and (3) the response of parents and family members, friends, acquaintances, and strangers (societal depiction). Both main characters navigate a world in which they are viewed as abnormal, frequently working through internalized feelings of freakery as they struggle to become more self-accepting during their adolescent years. Such depictions “engage with disability as an isolating, hurtful, and joyful experience” (Bolt 11), allowing for the complexities, tensions, contradictions, and general messiness of embodying TS. These depictions suggest that the authors seek to provide readers with an empathetic understanding of TS, while allowing the simultaneous contemplation of ways in which the embodiment of TS informs us about our culture.

Published: October 2024

The research objectives are to assess the digital marketing capabilities of micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs) in Thailand’s service sector, as well as to develop persona profiles for each enterprise size. The survey of 400 digital marketing personnel was conducted alongside comprehensive interviews with 10 marketing executives. The result suggests that MSMEs have moderate digital marketing skills but need to improve their knowledge in creative thinking, online consumer interaction, affiliate marketing, and change management. An executive interview emphasized issues unique to micro-enterprises, like mismatched advertising and inadequate online marketing expertise. Medium-sized enterprises have difficulties achieving online target engagement due to their inadequate SEO capabilities, whereas small enterprises struggle to effectively manage customer inquiries. The study introduces persona cards that reveal distinct competency levels and areas for improvement for each enterprise size. The research provides actionable insights for MSMEs seeking to refine their digital marketing strategies and contributes to the academic literature with understanding. Persona cards serve as a novel tool for visualizing digital marketing competencies and needs within the MSME sector.
MFCEN: A lightweight multi-scale feature cooperative enhancement network for single-image super-resolution

Published: October 2024

In recent years, significant progress has been made in single-image super-resolution with the advancements of deep convolutional neural networks (CNNs) and transformer-based architectures. These two techniques have led the way in the field of super-resolution technology research. However, performance improvements often come at the cost of a substantial increase in the number of parameters, thereby limiting the practical applications of super-resolution methods. Existing lightweight super-resolution methods, which primarily focus on single-scale feature extraction, lead to the issue of missing multi-scale features. This results in incomplete feature acquisition and poor reconstruction of the image. In response to these challenges, this paper proposed a lightweight multi-scale feature cooperative enhancement network (MFCEN). The network consists of three parts: shallow feature extraction, deep feature extraction, and image reconstruction. In the deep feature extraction part, a novel integrated multi-level feature module was introduced. Compared to existing CNN and transformer hybrid super-resolution networks, MFCEN significantly reduced the number of parameters while maintaining performance. This improvement was particularly evident at a scale factor of 3. The network introduced a novel comprehensive integrated multi-level feature module, leveraging the strong local perceptual capabilities of CNNs and the superior global information processing of transformers. It was designed with depthwise separable convolutions for extracting local information and a block-scale and global feature extraction module based on vision transformers (ViTs). While extracting the three scales of features, a satisfiability attention mechanism with a feed-forward network that can control the information was used to keep the network lightweight. Experiments demonstrated that the proposed model surpasses the reconstruction performance of the 498K-parameter SPAN model with a mere 488K parameters. Extensive experiments on commonly used image super-resolution datasets further validated the effectiveness of the network.
On the solutions of some systems of rational difference equations
Authors: Alharthi M. T.
Published: October 2024

In this paper, we considered some systems of rational difference equations of higher order as follows

   \begin{document}$ \begin{eqnarray*} u_{n+1} & = &\frac{v_{n-6}}{1\pm v_{n}u_{n-1}v_{n-2}u_{n-3}v_{n-4}u_{n-5}v_{n-6}}, \\ v_{n+1} & = &\frac{u_{n-6}}{1\pm u_{n}v_{n-1}u_{n-2}v_{n-3}u_{n-4}v_{n-5}u_{n-6}}, \end{eqnarray*} $\end{document}

where the initial conditions $ u_{0, } $ $ u_{-1}, $ $ u_{-2}, $ $ u_{-3}, $ $ u_{-4}, $ $ u_{-5}, $ $ u_{-6}, $ $ v_{0, } $ $ v_{-1}, $ $ v_{-2}, $ $ v_{-3}, $ $ v_{-4}, $ $ v_{-5} $ and $ v_{-6} $ were arbitrary real numbers. We obtained a closed form of the solutions for each considered system and also some periodic solutions of some systems were found. We presented some numerical examples to explain the obtained theoretical results.
