Objective: To verify the functionality of drinking troughs based on fauna record.
Design/Methodology/Approach: Most of the approximately 70 artificial drinking troughs were installed inside the core zones of the Calakmul Biosphere Reserve (CBR). The remaining troughs were installed in communities and left under the protection and supervision of beekeepers. A camera-trap station was associated with each of the drinking troughs installed.
Results: Ninety-one wildlife species that drink water from the artificial troughs have been identified, including 30 mammals, 53 birds, 5 reptiles, and three amphibians. Jaguars, tapirs, and other endangered species are some of the most frequent visitors to these sites, especially during the dry season.
Study Limitations/Implications: The use of artificial water troughs is an adequate alternative to guarantee water availability in the Calakmul region. The high diversity of species that constantly visit the drinking troughs during the dry season makes evident the functionality of the water supply strategy with artificial drinking troughs.
Findings/Conclusions: The drinking troughs can be a tool for various objectives in the region. It arose from the need to respond to emergency climatological events (i.e., droughts), but it has been adapted to the regional needs and other activities. It has been considered a successful management strategy in the face of climate change.

Authors: Murillo Enrique , Sádaba Teresa , Mir-Bernal Pedro , Terán-Bustamante Antonia , López-Sánchez Oziel
Published: May 2024

This research aims to empirically examine the internal branding processes implemented by a global sports fashion firm to turn all employees into competent brand ambassadors. Brand-oriented training was hypothesized as an antecedent of salesperson brand identification and brand commitment, which drive brand-aligned behavior, the critical trait of employee brand ambassadors. These hypotheses were tested by surveying 141 corporate and retail employees of a global sportswear fashion brand's regional operations in Mexico. The principal conclusion is that brand-oriented training proves a significant driver of salesperson brand identification. Furthermore, brand identification drives brand commitment and brand-aligned behavior among all company employees, not just salespersons

Drivers Influencing Customers’ Visitation Patterns to Ecolodges: A Case Study of Cross River State, Nigeria
Authors: Imoagene Gladys , Ayo-Odifiri Solomon Oisasoje
Published: May 2024

The natural habitat is unprecedentedly experiencing a detrimental impact on the hospitality industry globally; hence, alternative practices such as ecolodges have become inevitable eco-friendly tourism options. However, there is a shortage of quantitative evidence of the drivers influencing customers’ visitation to ecolodges, particularly OMR and CRNP in Cross River State, Nigeria. Drivers influencing customer visitation and attractions to advance customer willingness to revisit were investigated in this study. A convenience sampling technique was employed to administer a structured questionnaire to the 635 tourists who have spent at least a night at the studied ecolodges. Descriptive statistics and correlation tests were used for the data analysis. From the results, better consideration of new destinations, alluring cultural and historical landmarks, and enjoying local life and customs were some notable influential push factors. The pull factors were enjoying good physical amenities, landscape and wildlife conservation, exploring, and learning about nature.
Breaking the Cult of Masculinity –The Other Lamb, Midsommarand Empowerment on Screen
Authors: Finnemore Daniel
Published: May 2024

It is not only cult cinema but also the representation of the ‘cult’ on screen that can provide vital opportunities to de-centre destructive masculinity and ask questions about wider gender power struggles. Female characters that are at the centre of cult cinema, driving the narrative and breaking the rules of masculine control are not a new phenomenon. From Pam Grier’s ferocity in films such as Coffy (1973) and Foxy Brown(1974) to Kurt Russell’s brutal takedown in Tarantino’s Death Proof (2007), cult film has long been a platform for destabilising the notion of traditional gender hierarchies. The notion of the ‘cult’ itself, however, has long been thought of and (represented on screen) as an all-male power trip with disastrous consequences for those that believe. As far back as The Seventh Victim (1943) and Rosemary’s Baby (1968), there have been many manifestations of cult violence towards woman on screen but there is also a cannon of films that use cinematic representations of the cult to change the narrative and bring wider gender politics to the surface. Two such contemporary examples of this are Małgorzata Szumowska’s The Other Lamb (2020) and Ari Aster’s Midsommar (2019). Both films offer nightmarish manifestations of cult mechanisms and control that at first seem to once again place men and masculinity in pole position. This paper will examine how the narrative, character and cinematic language of both films offer a more complex and subversive discourse linked to female empowerment. They use the medium to offer cautionary, and often shocking, on-screen representations that attempt to disrupt traditional, male led power structures and can also be read as a commentary on wider society and not simply the cults that they portray.

This systematic review explores the evolution and impact of interactive storytelling in films on audience engagement. Research questions probed into how interactive storytelling in films has been discussed in literature, the role of technology in shaping narratives, and the influence of audience physiological and emotional responses on storytelling outcomes. The research objectives centered on identifying key themes and the interplay between technology, narrative innovation, and audience interaction in contemporary storytelling. Through a comprehensive selection process, 163 articles were reviewed, resulting in three significant themes: interactive narrative and media convergence, the impact of technology on storytelling, and audience engagement and interaction. Each theme explores the dynamic relationship between technology, diverse narrative structures, and audience participation. Methodologically, an integrative approach was employed to analyze varied research designs, culminating in thematic categorization. The findings call attention to the transformative influence of technology on storytelling and the shift from passive to active audience participation.

A kis házaktól a kisházakig : Laktérminimumok Keserűszeren

Amennyiben egy tudós arra vállalkozna, hogy megírja a kisház (apró ház, csöpp ház, bungaló, kunyhó, viskó, kalyiba, hajlék, kuckó, menedék) mint ősjelleg eszmetörténetét, azt feltétlen Diogenész hordójával kezdené. A Platón által őrjöngő Szókratésznek nevezett filozófus Krisztus előtt mintegy négyszáz évvel született. Pokróc modoráról és fordulatos életéről pár évszázaddal később egy másik Diogenész – Laertiosz – számolt be A filozófiában jeleskedők élete és nézetei tíz könyvben [1] címmel magyarra fordult összeállításában. Tőle tudjuk, hogy a cinikusokhoz sorolt – és legalább három forrás alapján újraalkotott – filozófus tanításai középpontjában a boldogság állt, amelyet csakis az erényes élettel lehetett elérni. Utóbbihoz azonban az szükséges – tartja a szinópéi bölcselő –, hogy lemondjunk felesleges javainkról.

A Balaton-parti települések jelentős átalakuláson mentek keresztül az elmúlt évtizedben. A vízpartok intenzív beépítése és a turisztikai létesítmények funkcióbővítése mellett az üdülőterületek hátterében fekvő ősközségi területek is felértékelődtek. Az átalakulást a régió agglomerálódása, a négy évszakos használatok előtérbe kerülése és a pandémia egyaránt elősegítette, ma már egyre nehezebb meghúzni a határt az állandó lakosság, az időszakosan de négy évszakban lejáró második otthont építők és a nyaralók közt. Időszerűvé vált az ősközségi településrészek megújítása, ami a kortárs építészet számára is komplex kihívást jelent.

KONSEP PENDIDIKAN NATURALISTIK JEAN JACQUES ROUSSEAU DAN RELEVANSINYA BAGI PENGEMBANGAN SISTEM MERDEKA BELAJAR DI INDONESIA
Authors: Siswadi Gede Agus
Published: May 2024

The current educational orientation is more toward a mechanistic education system. That is, the entire series of education carried out has been designed and very structured. So that teachers and students only follow the previously designed structure. Thus, the meaning of education that expects the development of the potential possessed by students will be hampered because of the structure that has been made. In understanding the reality of the world, students are kept away from their world. So that what is born is students who learn and understand about nature, but never learn together with nature. And Jean Jacques Rousseau presents the concept of naturalistic education as a rationale for returning students to natural reality. Through qualitative research methods with a philosophical hermeneutic approach, this study will attempt to uncover the meaning behind the reality of the world of education today by exploring the concept of naturalistic education initiated by Jean Jacques Rousseau. Thus, the results in this study indicate that Rousseau's idea of ​​the concept of naturalistic education departs from his concern about the direction of education which hinders the development of the potential of students in accordance with their natural nature. Students are likened to a robot that only follows the learning programs that have been designed. Thus, education must be returned to the natural aspect, so that students understand the realities of the world well. As well as the development of a “Merdeka Belajar” system in Indonesia, it is very important to understand Rousseau's concept of naturalistic education, so that it fully gives freedom to students to return to the natural nature of each student.

Bağlanma Kuramı Kapsamında İlişkisel Malların Fayda Üzerindeki Etkisinin İncelenmesi
Authors: Altun Erdoğdu Keziban , Göksel Türkmen
Published: May 2024

Yirminci yüzyılın sonlarına doğru psikoloji, iktisada entegre edilerek daha önceleri pek önemsenmeyen güven, karşılıklılık, dayanışma gibi insan ilişkilerine odaklı sosyal konulara yönelik ilgi artmıştır. Bu çalışmada da iktisadın uzak durduğu bu sosyal konulardan biri olarak değerlendirilen ilişkisel malların fayda üzerindeki etkisi psikolojik temelleri üzerine kurulu iktisadi model ile analiz edilmiştir. Bu amaç için Maurizio Pugno (2005)’nun psikoloji biliminde önemli bir yere sahip olan bağlanma kuramına dayalı matematiksel modeli referans alınmıştır. Pugno, insanların zamanını sadece kişisel veya sosyal ilişkiler geliştirmeye ve çalışmaya ayırdığını varsayarak modelini kurmuştur. Ancak gerçek hayatta insanlar tek başına yapabilecekleri etkinlikleri gerçekleştirmek için kendilerine de zaman ayırırlar. Bu nedenle Pugno’nun modeli, sosyalleşme dışı boş zaman (insanların sadece kendileri için kullandıkları zaman) eklenmesiyle yeniden kurgulanmıştır. Yeniden kurgulanan modelde, Pugno’nun ulaştığı sonuçtan farklı olarak, başkalarıyla sık vakit geçiren güvenli bağlanma stiline sahip bireyin geliri arttığında ilişkisel maldan fazla tüketse de ilişkilerden kaçınan güvensiz bağlanmaya sahip bireye göre fayda düzeyinin her durumda yüksek olmadığı ortaya çıkmıştır. Bu açıdan model, bireyler zamanlarını sadece başkalarıyla vakit geçirmek için değil, kitap okumak, egzersiz yapmak, günlük tutmak, müzik dinlemek gibi kendileri için de kullanırlarsa fayda düzeylerinin yüksek olacağını ortaya koymuştur.

Judging by the Rules? The emergence of evaluation practices
Authors: Lom Stacy
Published: May 2024

How does evaluation work differently, and how do evaluation practices emerge, in different contexts? Drawing on a mixed-methods study of evaluation in figure skating and classical music, I discuss the divergent evaluative cultures in these settings, especially in terms of how formal and standardized they are, to consider how and why evaluation practices change over time and why different settings use different evaluation practices. I emphasize the importance of organizational structure, including context, competition structure, degree of centralization, and governance structure. My findings suggest that highly centralized settings governed by more powerful organizations and where competitions build on each other tend to use more formal and standardized evaluation practices compared to other settings with fewer constraints. Understanding how evaluation practices develop and what they look like in different contexts is important because in addition to influencing the objects of evaluation and perceived fairness and legitimacy, these practices often affect outcomes, which have significant consequences for participants.

Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death in both men and women. It represents a public health problem that must be addressed through the early detection of specific biomarkers and effective treatment. To address this critical issue, it is imperative to implement effective methodologies for specific biomarker detection of lung cancer in real clinical samples. Electrochemical methods, including microfluidic devices and biosensors, can obtain robust results that reduce time, cost, and assay complexity. This comprehensive review will explore specific studies, methodologies, and detection limits and contribute to the depth of the discussion, making it a valuable resource for researchers and clinicians interested in lung cancer diagnosis.

Objective

To analyze the amino acid substitution caused by mutations in the major hydrophilic region (MHR) of the S-region genes in the serum samples of occult hepatitis B virus infection (OBI), and to explore the reasons for the missed detection of HBsAg.

Method

The full-length gene of the S-region in hepatitis B virus(HBV) in the chronic hepatitis B virus(CHB)(10 samples) and OBI groups(42 samples) was amplified using a lab-developed, two-round PCR amplification technology. The PCR amplification products were sequenced/clone sequenced, and the nucleotide sequences of the S-region gene in HBV were compared to the respective genotype consensus sequence.

Results

Only 20 of the 42 samples in the OBI group had the S-region genes successfully amplified, with the lowest HBV DNA load of 20.1IU/ml. As S-region genes in HBV, 68 cloned strains were sequenced. In the OBI and CHB groups MHR region, with a mutation rate of 3.21% (155/4828) and 0.70% (5/710). The genetic mutation rate was significantly higher in the OBI group than in the CHB group (P<0.05). The common mutation types in the MHR region were: I126T, L162R, K122E, C124R, and C147Y.Mutations at s122, s126, and s162 were associated with subgenotypes, most of which being C genotypes. The high-frequency mutation sites L162R and K122E found in this study have not been reported in previous literature.

Conclusion

The results of this study confirmed that MHR mutations can cause the missed detection of HBsAg, giving rise to OBI.
Statistical learning and mathematics knowledge: the case of arithmetic principles
Authors: Cho Hyun Young , Vasilyeva Marina , Laski Elida V.

Statistical learning—an unconscious cognitive process used to extract regularities—is well-established as a fundamental mechanism underlying learning. Yet, despite the prominence of patterns in the number system and operations, little is known about the relation between statistical learning and mathematics knowledge. This study examined the associations among statistical learning, executive control, and arithmetic knowledge among first graders (N = 54). The relations varied by operation. For addition, children with greater statistical learning capacity responded more quickly to problems that were part of a principle (i.e., commutativity) pair than to unrelated problems, even after accounting for baseline performance, executive control, and age. For subtraction, results indicated an interaction between children's baseline subtraction performance and their statistical learning on accuracy. These findings provide an impetus for testing new models of mathematics learning that include statistical learning as a potentially important mechanism.
Effects of redundant similes on persuasiveness in written arguments

Published: May 2024

Figurative expressions have been considered beneficial in improving the persuasiveness of arguments; however, little attention has been paid to the effects of those produced by students in writing. This study examined the effects of a “redundant simile,” which refers to a simile that merely rephrases the same content in a subtly different manner, on persuasiveness in written arguments. Participants (n = 64) were randomly assigned to control or redundant-simile conditions. A written argument comprised “claim, my-side reason, counterargument, rebuttal, and claim” in both conditions, and a redundant simile was included in “my-side reason” in the redundant-simile condition. The participants evaluated the immediate and delayed persuasiveness of each sentence and rated the confidence of recognition of whether each sentence was used in the evaluation task. The results showed that only the evaluation of the counterargument was significantly higher in the redundant-simile condition than in the control condition. The confidence of recognition of my-side reason was significantly lower in the redundant-simile condition than in the control condition. Thus, redundant similes may negatively affect memory, although they may not directly affect immediate persuasiveness. It is thus important to encourage students to flexibly reflect on their figurative expressions rather than assume that the expressions will always increase persuasiveness.
Female obesity: clinical and psychological assessment toward the best treatment
Authors: Guglielmi Valeria , Dalle Grave Riccardo , Leonetti Frida , Solini Anna
Published: May 2024

Obesity is a heterogeneous condition which results from complex interactions among sex/gender, sociocultural, environmental, and biological factors. Obesity is more prevalent in women in most developed countries, and several clinical and psychological obesity complications show sex-specific patterns. Females differ regarding fat distribution, with males tending to store more visceral fat, which is highly correlated to increased cardiovascular risk. Although women are more likely to be diagnosed with obesity and appear more motivated to lose weight, as confirmed by their greater representation in clinical trials, males show better outcomes in terms of body weight and intra-abdominal fat loss and improvements in the metabolic risk profile. However, only a few relatively recent studies have investigated gender differences in obesity, and sex/gender is rarely considered in the assessment and management of the disease. This review summarizes the evidence of gender differences in obesity prevalence, contributing factors, clinical complications, and psychological challenges. In addition, we explored gender differences in response to obesity treatments in the specific context of new anti-obesity drugs.

In the context of the new power system, the widespread access to massive distributed new energy sources has led to the power distribution and consumption tasks characterized by multiple time scales, wide random distribution, and large demand differences, resulting in unpredictable resource peaks in the tasks computing resource demand curve. In view of this situation, a method of forecasting and dynamic balancing of computing resource demand for power distribution and consumption tasks based on state iteration was proposed: firstly, the tasks computing resource demand model was established under the analysis of the attributes and parameter demand of the power distribution and consumption tasks scenario. Secondly, on the basis of the short-term effectiveness prediction of the traditional Markov model, the first-order difference of the state is used for data training to track the state fluctuation, and the historical state and the predicted state are used for state iteration, so as to avoid the convergence of long-term prediction. Finally, a dynamic balancing model is established according to the time-scale characteristics of cyclical and non-cyclical tasks, and the optimal configuration of load imbalance is achieved through the identification and adjustment of historical data and burst data. The simulation results show that the improved Markov model based on first-order difference and state iteration has the short-term accuracy of the traditional model and the long-term traceability of data fluctuations. The dynamic balancing model can combine the characteristics of historical data and burst data to effectively reduce the imbalance of resource demand, and show good ability to cope with resource imbalance deviation.

Lumen formation, as a key process of biological tube construction, is essential in various physiological processes such as nutrient and waste transporting, gas exchanging, and structural supporting. However, the mechanisms underlying tubular lumen development are still not fully understood. In the present study, we identified a matrix metalloproteinase, Nas15, which is enriched in the apical domain of the Ciona embryonic notochord. The expression level of the Nas15 gene significantly increased during notochord lumen formation and expansion. Nas15 loss-of-function resulted in abnormal notochord lumen expansion in Ciona embryos. Besides, yeast two-hybrid screening and CO-IP results indicated a Phosphatase 2 Catalytic Subunit Alpha (PPP2CA) physically interacted with Nas15. PPP2CA also involved in notochord lumen formation via localizing Nas15. Furthermore, we investigated the distribution of laminin in Nas15 disrupted embryos. In conclusion, our results revealed a mechanisms of how notochord cells regulating lumen expansion via metalloproteinase-mediated ECM localization. This findings provide insight into the mechanisms of tubular organ lumen formation and serve as a reference for research on human abnormal lumenogenesis diseases.

The Mediterranean spearfish (Tetrapturus belone) is a highly migratory predator, also exploited by commercial and recreational fisheries although its catches are poorly reported. The fishing pressure on this species is currently unknown because catch and landing data are fragmentary. Furthermore, more ecological information (e.g. migratory movements) is needed to establish eventual management measures, and ICCAT has not examined the population status yet. Understanding species migratory movements is crucial for addressing conservation challenges and supporting management decisions. In this study we investigated the migratory movements, seasonal patterns, vertical behavior, and thermal preference of T. belone, with the aim to improve information on its ecology and behavior. Overall, six individuals were tagged in the Strait of Messina and Tyrrhenian Sea with pop-up satellite tags and their movements were mainly restricted to the central Mediterranean. Utilization distributions derived from geolocation revealed an overall and seasonal importance of the Tyrrhenian Sea and Strait of Sicily, as well as variability in winter habitat use. While the fish exhibited similar depth preference, spending the majority of time at depths ≤ 10 m, we observed that the Mediterranean spearfish is also able to perform sporadic deep dives below 200 m. Vertical movement showed a bimodal pattern common in other billfish species, characterized by occupation of shallower, warmer waters during the night and deeper, cooler waters during the day. This research increases knowledge on the migration ecology and habitat preference of T. belone which is important for management of this understudied species.
