La seguridad alimentaria juega un papel crucial para la supervivencia humana, hoy en día se ve amenazada mundialmente por la variabilidad climática y por los efectos adversos que este fenómeno ha ocasionado sobre los cultivos de maíz, que, conjuntamente con el arroz y el trigo conforman el alimento más importante del mundo. Siendo el maíz uno de los cultivos más dañados por el cambio climático, es prioritario monitorear su desarrollo de manera precisa y con mayor frecuencia que la actual. Al respecto, la revisión de la literatura expresa la ausencia de herramientas computacionales de alta precisión y bajo costo que apoyen al agricultor en esta tarea, por ello, se construyó una red neuronal artificial de aprendizaje hibrido capaz de monitorear el desarrollo del cultivo e identificar posibles deficiencias de forma oportuna con una precisión del 98%; de esta forma la propuesta contribuye a reducir pérdidas y apoya la seguridad alimentaria.

Food security plays a crucial role for human survival, today it is threatened globally by climate variability and the adverse effects that this phenomenon has caused corn crops, which, together with rice and Wheat make up the most important food in the world. Corn being one of the crops most damaged by climate change, it is a priority to monitor their development of precise way and more frequently than the current one. In this regard, the literature review expresses the absence of high precision and low cost computational tools that support the farmer in this task, therefore, an artificial neural network of hybrid learning capable of monitoring crop development and identifying possible deficiencies in a timely manner with an accuracy of 98%; in this way the proposal contributes to reducing losses and supports food security.

Published: June 2022

En los últimos años, el marketing político ha obtenido un rol fundamental como herramienta para obtener resultados electorales exitosos. Los procesos de marketing político reúnen una serie de técnicas de investigación, planificación, gestión y comunicación. Sin embargo, para poder lograr diseñar y ejecutar estrategias de marketing político con impacto positivo en la población es necesario la correcta obtención, gestión y análisis de la información. Uno de los mayores retos para obtener una base de conocimiento única es la heterogeneidad de fuentes de datos. Las tecnologías semánticas, en general, y las ontologías, en particular, permiten crear una base homogénea de información, sobre la que inferir conocimiento y realizar el análisis de datos. En este trabajo se presenta una ontología para el marketing político que servirá para crear una base de conocimiento eneste dominio.

In recent years, political marketing has obtained a fundamental role as a tool to obtain successful electoral results. Political marketing processes bring together a series of research, planning, management and communication techniques. However, in order to design and execute political marketing strategies with a positive impact on the population, it is necessary to obtain, manage and analyze the information correctly. One of the biggest challenges in obtaining a unique knowledge base is the heterogeneity of data sources. Semantic technologies, in general, and ontologies, in particular, allow creating a homogeneous base of information, on which to infer knowledge and perform data analysis. This work presents an ontology for political marketing that will serve to create a knowledge base in this domain.

Memduh Şevket Esendal’ın Gözünden Türk Toplumunda Halk İnançlarının Yeri ve İşlevi
Authors: ASLAN AYAR Pelin
Published: June 2022

Kökeni insanlık tarihi kadar eski olan, çeşitli psikolojik ihtiyaçlara cevap vermeleri açısından insanlar tarafından benimsenen halk inançları, Türk toplumunda da her zaman yaşamın ayrılmaz bir parçası olagelmiştir. Toplumu gözlemleyip hikâyelerini oradan devşiren Memduh Şevket Esendal da bu konuya hikâyelerinde geniş yer verir. Yapılan çalışmalar her ne kadar modern şehirlerde yaşayan, iyi eğitimli, üst sınıftan insanların da bu tarz inançlara sahip olduğunu ortaya koymaya başlamışsa da pozitif bilim dünyasında bunlar “temelsiz, irrasyonel ve boş” olarak nitelendirilip batıl kabul edilegelmiştir. Bu inançların daha çok kırsal bölgelerde yaşayan, atalardan devralınmış öğretilerle şekillenmiş, geleneksel bir yaşam süren ve eğitim seviyesi düşük insanlar arasında yaygın olduğuna dair bir ön kabul vardır. Modern Cumhuriyetçi söylemin bir temsilcisi olan Memduh Şevket Esendal da halk inançları konusunda bilim insanlarıyla aynı ön kabulü paylaşır görünmektedir. Yazarın hikâyelerinde hem sosyal olarak paylaşılan hem de kişisel inançlar yer alır. Memduh Şevket Esendal, özellikle, halk arasında geçmişten beri kabul gören, sosyal olarak paylaşılan inanış ve uygulamalara karşı daha eleştireldir. En çok muska, adak, yatır, türbe, büyü, fal gibi sosyal inanışlara yer verdiği hikâyelerinde bunlara itibar edenler genelde kırsal kesimde, küçük kasabalarda yaşayan ve eğitimsiz insanlardır. O, bu inançların çıkış noktasındaki maneviyatını kaybettiğini, iyi ve güzele değil, sömürüye hizmet ettiğini, kötü niyetli kişilerin elinde aile ilişkilerine ve topluma zarar verdiğini göstermeye çalışmıştır. Diğer yandan kişiyi mantıklı düşünmekten alıkoyan çoğu zaman temelsiz ve akıl dışı gibi görünen inançlar bireysel olarak benimsendiğinde, kişinin kendi iç dünyasında yaşandığında yazarın daha müsamahalı bir tavır sergilediği görülür. Kişilerin kendi deneyimleri sonucunda uğur ve uğursuzluk etrafında şekillenen inançlar da mantık dışı olup kişinin olaylar arasında doğru bir neden sonuç ilişkisi kurmasını engeller. Ancak zararı ya da faydası kişinin sadece kendisine olan, kişiyi psikolojik açıdan rahatlatan veya kaygılandıran ve her ne kadar kişisel olsa da ortak kültürden devralınan bu inançları anlatırken Memduh Şevket Esendal, hikâyelerini daha komik bir zemin üzerine inşa etmiş, onlar karşısında yargılayıcı olmamıştır. Bu makale, Memduh Şevket Esendal’ın sosyal ve kişisel inançlara karşı tavrını çözümleyerek onun asıl itirazının kültürel birer renk olarak yaşamda yer alan inançlara yönelik değil; bu tarz inançların kişinin hayatını kontrol altına almasına, onu sağlıklı düşünmekten alıkoymasına, ona ve çevresine zarar veren, kötü niyetli kişilerce kullanılmasına rağmen sorgulanmaksızın nesilden nesle aktarılmasına dair olduğunu gösterir.
Cihanzâde Ailesi Vakıfları[1]
Authors: GÜMÜŞ İlker
Published: June 2022

Bir efsaneye göre Cihanzâde sülalesinin hikâyesi, 1522 yılında Aydın’ın Amazon bölgesinde başlamıştır. Bu efsane bize Cihanzâde ailesinin Kanuni Sultan Süleyman tarafından Koçarlı ovasının kendilerine yurtluk olarak verilmesiyle güç kazandığını, tarım ve ticaretle uğraşarak bölgenin en güçlü ailelerinden biri olduğunu söylemektedir. Yapılan araştırmalar, Menderes Türklerinin önce Koçarlı’nın Mazın (Amyzon) bölgesinde yerleşip daha sonra Aydın (Meandros)’da yaşadığını göstermektedir. Menderes Türklerinden oldukları anlaşılan Cihanzâdeler, arşiv kayıtlarında kendilerinden Aydın Güzelhisarı ve Sobuca âyanları olarak bahsetmektedir. Cihanzâdeler; “voyvoda”, “âyan”, “muhassıl vekili”, “dergâh-ı âli ser-bevvabı (kapıcıbaşısı)”, “kâtiplik” ve “kadılık” gibi önemli devlet görevlerini uhdelerinde bulundurmaları, bölgedeki âyan aileleriyle akrabalık kurmaları ve bu ailelerin bölgenin ileri gelen zengin ve soylu aileleri olmasından dolayı bölgesel bir siyasi aktör olma imkânına da kavuşmuşlardır.

Cihanzâde ailesinin kimi zaman akçeye fazla zam yapmasından dolayı payitahta şikâyet edildiği ve halkla çekişmede olduğu, kimi zaman da kendi içlerinde mal ve mülk mücadelesinde olduğu görülmektedir. XIX. yüzyıl sonlarında ise aile arşiv belgelerine göre mal ve mülklerini iyi yönetememesi sebebiyle borçlandığı anlaşılmaktadır. Bütün bunların sonucunda aile; Osmanlı’nın son döneminde ekonomik gücünü zamanla kaybetmiş, sahip olduğu mülk ve topraklarını zengin vakıflar kurarak koruma yoluna gitmiştir.

Cihanzâde Abdülaziz Efendi vakfını konu alan Arel’in yayınlarının dışında ailenin vakıflarını ele alan yayınlar bulunmamaktadır.

Bunun yanı sıra Cumhurbaşkanlığı devlet arşivi, Cihanzâde aile arşivi, Vakıflar Genel Müdürlüğü arşivi ile ailenin Aydın coğrafyasında bulunan mezar taşları kaynak alınarak ilk kez detaylı bir Cihanzâde ailesi şeceresi oluşturulmuştur.

Yapmış olduğumuz arşiv ve yayın taramalarında ailenin vakıflarını doğrudan ele alan ve bir bütünlük içinde inceleyen bir yayın bulunmadığı tespit edilmiştir. Bu makalede 1522-1923 yılları arasında varlığını sürdüren Cihanzâde ailesinin önemli şahsiyetlerinin yanı sıra ailenin 1736 yılında ilk vakıflarını, 1882 yılında da son vakıflarını kurdukları on dört vakıf tanıtılmaya çalışılmıştır.

Background: Idiopathic granulomatous mastitis (IGM) is a challenging exclusion diagnosis for breast lesions, manifested as benign, chronic inflammation of the breast tissue. Although some evidence suggest that IGM cases are not uniformly distributed worldwide, few investigations have specifically addressed this topic. This study aims to examine the distribution of IGM cases among countries and races/ethnicities based on reported cases.Methods: A review of studies with a report of at least one IGM patient published from 2011 to 2020 inclusive was conducted. The search was performed in MEDLINE, and citations were filtered in two stages by title/abstract and full text. Those cases with a positive growth of pathogens, male granulomatous mastitis and review articles were excluded.Results: Among 365 retrieved publications, 218 were finally included based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria, comprising 7161 patients from 34 different countries. Turkey, the United States, and China were the countries where the most publications (including case reports) originated. Considering the number of patients within papers, Turkey, Iran, and China were the pioneers. Conclusion: Based on the published literature, some populations seem to be more prone to IGM. Further investigations may reveal the genetic and environmental factors associated with this disease in different geographic areas.

Published: June 2022

This phenomenological research was conducted to inquire into the experiences of fathers of children with autism during the COVID-19 pandemic. This qualitative study was explored because there is a dearth of studies focusing on paternal involvement and a lack of local autism research. Nine participants, who were chosen using purposive sampling, individually participated in an unstructured interview. The van Kaam method popularized by Moustakas was used to analyze the data gathered. Five major themes emerged: recognizing the child's needs, surviving hardships, enduring exhaustion, encountering silver linings, and moving forward. The findings showed that fathers of children with autism encountered challenging and fulfilling events during the pandemic with resilience. Fathers of children with autism prioritized familial needs, especially of the child, and increased their presence in the household. A strong paternal character builds up fathers’ resilience in coping with the difficulties of raising a child with autism in a precarious time.

Authors:   Cebu Normal University, Cebu City, Philippines, Paño Jennifer , Jumao-as Jeralden ,   Cebu Normal University, Cebu City, Philippines, Picardal Marchee ,   Cebu Normal University, Cebu City, Philippines
Published: June 2022

Garden-based education (GBE) is an innovative approach to enhancing learners’ academic performance. However, the mechanism of how it develops the cognitive domain of learning is unclear. This meta-synthesis of 22 published articles focusing on garden-based education integration in the educative process examined its impact on mental aspects of learning. Secondary data from each reviewed article were extracted and analyzed thematically. Five themes emerged describing the impact of GBE on the cognitive domain of learning, namely, 1) experiential learning, 2) meaningful learning, 3) explicit and implicit learning, 4) discovery learning, and 5) transmissible learning. GBE is a successful program in most of the basic education curriculum integration contributing to the improvement of academic performance. Albeit, there is no standard template for its implementation as it varies across context and educational system, adopting the general principle of school garden learning in the teaching and learning process is beneficial for sustainable learning outcomes.

Authors:   University of San Jose-Recoletos, Cebu City, Philippines, De Catalina Joanna , De Catalina Emiliano ,   Cebu Technological University, Cebu City, Philippines
Published: June 2022

After the 1898 Philippine revolution, the English language was introduced in the country by the Americans and it began to surmount in the consciousness of the Filipino people. For one century now, this language has become dominant in the Filipino consciousness. Linguistically, it has even influenced the classification of the vocabulary of the Visayan-Cebuano language, i.e., according to the English eight parts of speech. But, as early as 1947, Manuel Yap, bishop and biblical scholar from Carcar, Cebu, objected, saying that the Visayan-Cebuano vocabulary does not fit in the English eight-parts-of-speech classification. This study, then, aims at inquiring into Yap’s own classification of the Visayan-Cebuano vocabulary. In doing this, it uses the descriptive-analysis research design. First, it presents the English eight-parts-of-speech classification, and second, Yap’s classification of the Visayan-Cebuano vocabulary. It concludes that Yap’s classification is the one that fits to the nature of the Visayan-Cebuano vocabulary.

This article presents the results of a theoretical analysis of the concept of collective ecological consciousness from the standpoint of its characteristics. It also displays fundamental differences between ecological and individual consciousness. Furthermore, the paper depicts the correlation between environmental culture, which arises in the process of socialization, and the power of environmental intents aimed at protecting the environment. During the integration into society, an individual learns a universal system of beliefs, values, customs, traditions, norms, and rules that are followed by dominant public. They also evolve relationships with the world and nature surrounding them. In particular, in a society with a high level of development of collective ecological consciousness, young people from an early age employ effective strategies for the conservation and restoration of natural resources. Thus, the authors draw attention to the crisis of morality and spirituality, which is the main reason for developing a selfish type of collective ecological consciousness. The authors give examples of environmental education concepts and training to lay the theoretical foundation for developing effective programs to improve environmental culture in the younger generation.

The Amu River Basin, located in northeast Afghanistan, is the second largest basin. Therefore, a general concept of the importance and value of watershed management has been reviewed. Too little water at a given time can be a disaster (e.g., draughts), and too much water available at the same time is also a tragedy (e.g., in the form of floods). Sustainable water management needs to have a moderate water flow, maintenance of the water quality, mitigation of water flows to minimize soil erosion, recharging of groundwater, and conservation and recycling. This paper will help understand the different elements and aspects of watershed management in Afghanistan and its interactions with technology, economics, institute, and natural resources. The importance of contributing to water and land management is linked with the people's livelihood.
Chinese Students in Thai Higher Education Institutions and the Transformation of Graduate Migrant: Characteristics, Practices, and Transitional Migration
Authors: Lertpusit Sivarin
Published: June 2022

This research article entitled "Chinese students in Thai higher education institutions and the transformation of graduate migrant: Characteristics, practices, and transitional migration" aims to clarify two objectives. Firstly, to analyze the determinants that motivate Chinese students to enroll in Thai higher education institutions and, secondly, to examine the particular characteristics and patterns of status involved in transitioning from student to graduate labor. Mixed research methods from in-depth interviews and questionnaires are employed in gathering and analyzing the finding. Criticizing Human capital theory, Chinese students in Thailand intend to invest in the Thai language to escalate their socioeconomic status. However, the popularity of the Thai language over the Vietnamese and Myanmese languages, which share a higher trading volume with Yunnan and Guangxi, represents the significance of Thai soft power through social media and healthier cultural linkage. Lastly, the length of stay among transforming Chinese workers depends on individual contentment. Applying social field theory, their economic capital mainly motivates short-term migrants. However, the pursuit of social and cultural contentment is the principal motivating factor attracting graduate migrants to reside long-term in Thailand.
SCIENCE, HUMAN AWARENESS AND ENVIRONMENTAL ATTITUDES
Authors: Aberšek Boris
Published: June 2022

The environment is a system, a complex system, which we are unable to comprehend, let alone truly understand, with the help of simplified models that we, humans, are able to process. Our human understanding of the complexity of a grain of sand simply isn’t enough to construe and adapt the universe! This would require time and knowledge, which we do not have today, and which we will not have for a long time. So, everything is in interpretation. Let us start our stories with some basic truths. The main premise is, that man doesn't need an outside enemy, he's the greatest threat to himself. But he's not just a threat to himself, he's a threat also to everything around him. No living thing on earth destroys it more than it takes for its existence, except for human.

It is essential to establish a multi-dimensional postgraduate quality evaluation system for student assessment and training. This study aimed to explore the construction of the multi-index and hierarchical comprehensive evaluation system for postgraduate training in science and engineering based on the Context, Input, Process, Product (CIPP) model using Analytic Hierarchy Process. It involved 756 postgraduates in physics and engineering who were randomly selected via the Internet. Data were collected from the questionnaire about postgraduates' basic information. After collection, Factor Analysis was used to verify the rationality of the design of second-level and third-level indicators, and adjust the corresponding weights. On this basis, Cluster Analysis was used to classify the training quality of the postgraduates based on their scores on academic ability, basic quality, and social ability indicators. The results revealed that the index system includes 4 first-level indicators,12 second-level indicators and 36 third-level indicators, and different weights being assigned to the indicators according to their influence on the training quality of postgraduates in science and engineering. This study also provides some reference for the quality of science and engineering postgraduate training in Chinese universities by proposing relevant measures, which could be interesting also for international audience.

UPPER SECONDARY SCHOOL STUDENTS’ CONCEPTIONS OF CHEMICAL EQUILIBRIUM IN AQUEOUS SOLUTIONS: DEVELOPMENT AND VALIDATION OF A TWO-TIER DIAGNOSTIC INSTRUMENT
Authors: He Peng , Zheng Changlong , Li Tingting
Published: June 2022

Student understanding of chemical equilibrium in aqueous solutions (CEAS) plays a vital role in their upper secondary school chemistry learning and everyday life. Diagnosis of students’ alternative conceptions (ACs) of the CEAS will provide teachers with valuable information to make instructional decisions on student learning. This study aims to develop and validate an instrument to diagnose students’ ACs about the CEAS, including ionization equilibrium, water self-ionization equilibrium, the equilibrium of salt hydrolysis, and precipitation and dissolution equilibrium. Using Treagust (1998)’s development framework, we have developed 25 two-tier multiple-choice items for the CEAS diagnostic test. After completing the corresponding courses, 750 Grade 11 students from five public schools responded to the CEAS diagnostic test. Rasch modeling approach was employed to provide psychometric properties of the CEAS diagnostic test consisting of one-dimensionality, reliability, and validity. This study identified 15 ACs toward the CEAS. This study found that most students performed better on concept tiers rather than reasoning tiers. In addition, students have difficulties in connecting acidity, solubility, ionization, and chemical reaction and in using mathematical thinking to do transformation between concentration, equilibrium constant, and pH value.
Keywords: chemical equilibrium in aqueous solutions, alternative conceptions, two-tier multiple-choice items, Rasch modeling
UTILIZING MULTIDIMENSIONAL SCALING TO REPRESENT THE CONCEPTUAL STRUCTURES OF ATOMIC STRUCTURE IN UPPER-SECONDARY SCHOOL TEACHERS AND STUDENTS

Published: June 2022

This research aimed to explore the upper-secondary school chemistry teachers’ and students’ conceptual structures of atomic structure by using multidimensional scaling. Atomic structure is considered to be one of the most difficult concepts in upper-secondary school chemistry course so that the conceptual structure regarding atomic structure held by the learner is necessary to examine. Based on a questionnaire survey for upper-secondary school chemistry teachers and university chemistry professors, 40 concepts were selected as a useful concept pool of atomic structure. Then, the conceptual structures and the specific classifications of concepts from 168 upper-secondary school chemistry teachers and 336 tenth-grade students were investigated by multidimensional scaling and hierarchical cluster analysis. The results showed that the 3-D solutions were appropriate for the conceptual structures of teachers and students respectively. Next, the conceptual structure of teachers utilized as an evaluation criterion was more scientific than that of students. The conceptual structure of students with high academic achievement was more scientific than that of the low achievers. Multidimensional scaling utilized to explore students’ conceptual structure of scientific concepts can provide a new and benefic form of evidence to understand the concept learning outcome of students.

Proposing scientific descriptions is critical for individuals to cope with daily problems and acquire essential information. Nonetheless, few classes have enhanced students’ ability to describe facts of scientific phenomena. Thus, using a tool of technology-based laboratory, this research examined whether students’ scientific descriptions and mathematical modelling behaviours could be improved. The participants included 52 undergraduate students randomly assigned to the experimental and control group. Two prompts were developed to remind the experimental group that it is common to place ‘time’ along the x-axis and that mathematical modelling is important in physics. Results showed that as expected, all participants generated more propositions in scientific descriptions, especially the experimental group. However, contrary to the hypothesis, the participants did not propose more correct propositions and the effect of group was limited. Moreover, the hypotheses were partially supported that the participants used more image-based and mathematics-based representations to describe phenomena, and the proportion of participants whose propositional type was quantitatively increased, though no main effects of group were observed. Most participants adjusted their mathematical models by keeping slightly changing the coefficients/constants to fit the data, rather than applying relevant physics knowledge to revise models, illustrating their difficulties in connecting mathematical representations with actual phenomena.
