Published: August 2022

Nanggalo rentan dengan permasalahan sosial seperti kenakalan remaja. Survei oleh BNN tahun 2017 mendapatkan hasil bahwa golongan pelajar adalah golongan terbesar kedua yang melakukan penyalahgunaan narkoba yaitu 24% (810.267 orang pelajar). Kasus kenakalan remaja seperti penyalahgunaan narkoba, pencurian sering terjadi di sekitar Kelurahan Surau Gadang, Nanggalo. Salah satu faktor penyebab terjadinya kenakalan tersebut adalah lemahnya Pendidikan moral. Salah satu Pendidikan moral yang mumpuni adalah dengan pendekatan keagamaan. Salah satu Lembaga keagamaan adalah rumah tahfiz Al-Qur'an. Berdasarkan hasil wawancara dengan perangkat RT setempat, didapatkan bahwa belum pernah dilakukan penyuluhan tentang narkoba dikawasan tersebut. Selain itu terdapat lembaga tahfidz sebagai sarana pencegahan penyalahgunaan narkoba, namun memiliki santri yang masih minim karena kurangnya promosi. Tujuan kegiatan ini adalah untuk meningkatkan pengetahuan remaja tentang narkoba dan meningkatkan promosi rumah tahfidz.  Metode kegiatan adalah sosialisasi dan promosi kesehatan dengan pembagian flyer anti narkoba, edukasi tentang pencegahan narkoba kepada remaja dan promosi rumah tahfidz Baitul Qu’ran. Kegiatan dilaksanakan di Mesjid Raya Nanggalo dan Mesjid Al-Qadar. Hasil kegiatan ini menunjukkan bahwa terdapat peningkatan pengetahuan remaja sebelum dan setelah diberikan penyuluhan tentang narkoba. Sekitar 49 remaja di Kelurahan Surau Gadang telah terpapar informasi tentang keberadaan rumah tahfidz Baitul Qur’an. Diharapkan kedepannya promosi rumah tahfidz bisa dilakukan secara lebih luas seperti menggunakan media sosial.

Published: August 2022

Perception of odors created by volatile molecules is central for human wellbeing. The chemistry of volatile compounds is especially important inside the built environment as humans spend increasingly greater time indoors. Beside unpleasant smells, exposure to airborne contaminants can directly impact our health. However, the comprehensive understanding of the composition and behavior of the indoor volatile and semi-volatile compounds (volatilome) is limited, in part due to the tremendous complexity and fleeting nature of these chemical distributions. This study explored the comprehensive volatilome, as opposed to individual compounds, of the indoor environment of a residence. For the first time, we mapped a spatial distribution of volatiles within a house as well as traced temporal volatilome changes. The impact of occupants’ activities over a month period were assessed in relation to the observed indoor volatile chemistry and changes in global chemical distributions across time. Each indoor activity generated a trail of volatiles, and the indoor volatilome after human habitation was found to be distinctly reshaped. Using molecular networking, we explored how multiple chemical families were affected. The portion of volatilome that has accumulated due to human occupancy appears to be more harmful to human health than emissions from the built environment itself. This is an important consideration for any other human environment with accumulated volatile chemistry, such as hospitals or office spaces.
On the definition of chirality and enantioselective fields
Authors: Yamamoto Hiroshi , Kishine Jun-ichiro , Kusunose Hiroaki
Published: August 2022

In solid state physics, any symmetry breaking is known to be associated with emergence of an order parameter. However, the order parameter for molecular and crystal chirality, which is a consequence of parity and mirror symmetry breaking, has not been known since its discovery. In this article, the authors show that the order parameter for chirality can be defined by electric toroidal monopole G_0. By this definition, one becomes able to discuss external filed that can distinguish two different enantiomers only by physical fields. In addition, dynamics and fluctuations of the order parameter G_0 can be discussed, with which one can obtain fruitful insights on a spin filtering effect called CISS (Chirality Induced Spin Selectivity). Emergence of time-reversal-odd dipole M_z by time propagation of G_0 quantities is discussed to explain the enantioselective effect (chiral resolution) at a ferromagnetic surface.

Published: August 2022

Mitochondrial respiration and metabolism play a key role in the pathogenesis and progression of colon adenocarcinoma (COAD). Here, we report a functional pool of FKBP4, a co-chaperone protein, in the mitochondrial intermembrane space (IMS) of colon cancer cells. We found that IMS-localized FKBP4 is essential for the maintenance of mitochondrial respiration, thus contributing to the sensitivity of COAD cells to 5-fluorouracil (5-FU). Mechanistically, FKBP4 interacts with COA6 and controls the assembly of the mitochondrial COA6/SCO1/SCO2 complex, thereby governing COA6-regulated biogenesis and activity of mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase (complex IV). Thus, our data reveal IMS-localized FKBP4 as a novel regulator of 5-FU sensitivity in COAD, linking mitochondrial respiration to 5-FU sensitivity in COAD.
Physicochemical properties of glucomannan isolated from fresh tubers of
Amorphophallus muelleri Blume by a multilevel extraction method
Authors: Nurlela N. , Ariesta N. , Santosa E. , Mulandri T.
Published: August 2022

Post-harvest treatment of Amorphophallus muelleri Blume (porang) tubers carried out by
Indonesian farmers is slicing tubers into chips, drying, exporting, or processing them to a
porang flour before export. To increase the economic value of porang tuber, it can be
directly extracted to obtain glucomannan. Glucomannan is a polysaccharide that has many
benefits. This work investigated the simple extraction method to produce high purity of
glucomannan from fresh porang tubers and study the physicochemical properties of
glucomannan. Sliced porang tuber repeatedly (three times) extracted by 60% ethanol
(fixed concentration method). In addition, repeated extraction was conducted by varying
ethanol concentrations (multilevel concentration method), in the first extraction, the
sample was milled in 60% ethanol, then the precipitated sample was extracted again with
70% ethanol and finally extracted in 80% ethanol. Glucomannan with high purity
(90.00%), whiteness degree (89.91), viscosity (14696.86 mPa.s), and a small number of
impurities: ash (0.92%), fat (0.01%), protein (5.18%), without starch content was isolated
by multilevel ethanol extraction method. By varying the concentration of ethanol, the
impurities with different polarities could be dissolved effectively without heating,
repetition of extraction, and further purification. FTIR spectra confirmed the presence of
functional groups composing the glucomannan compound. XRD pattern showed that the
extracted glucomannan had a more crystalline phase than commercial glucomannan. SEM
results verified the purity of the appearance of glucomannan particles.

French Semi-Vowels and Its Teaching for Chinese-Speaking Learners
Authors: Xie Xiaoshu
Published: August 2022

The three French semi-vowels [j], [w], and [?] present challenges and noteworthy problems to Chinese-speaking learners of French. Despite the fact that few domestic studies are related with French semi-vowels and their inclusion in French textbooks, the uniqueness of semi-vowels has always revealed itself in the learning process of French pronunciation. This paper, focusing on semi-vowels in French, intends to elaborate the phonetic features of these semi-vowels; following that, an exploration of the reasons for the exception of words to the phonetic rules of semi-vowels is conducted from the perspective of etymology. Since these semi-vowels have vowel-like sounds but act like consonants, the performance of semi-vowels in some phonetic rules, such as syllabication, word stress, and the aspiration of voiceless stops, is analyzed. This study has implications for the teaching of semi-vowels in French.
How Behaviorism Can Help Provide Insight into MOOCs in the Chinese Education Market
Authors: Zhu Jiangye
Published: August 2022

In recent years, online education has grown rapidly and expanded globally. As an undergraduate student, the author took part in massive open online courses (MOOCs) as an elective. While enjoying the convenience of high-tech distance education, the author also became aware of its shortcomings. For instance, when students are confused about a certain topic, they are unable to clarify with their instructors in real time since most of the time, recorded instructional videos are used. Students also tend to listen passively during lessons, indicating that they may not absorb information or “positively reinforce” what they know or have learned. When discussing the characteristics of MOOCs, the author hopes to demonstrate how online education may influence traditional teaching and serves as an excellent complement to conventional classrooms.
A Study on Guangdong Province Foreign Trade Business Environment Evaluation and Optimization Research
Authors: Liu Yun , Liao Rouling , Wang Ting
Published: August 2022

By constructing a comprehensive evaluation system for Guangdong’s foreign trade business environment based on the annual data from 2015 to 2019, factor analysis and entropy weight method are adopted to analyze Guangdong’s foreign trade business environment in recent years. This study discusses the aspects that the government should focus on in order to improve the foreign trade business environment more effectively. The results of the study are as follows: first, the overall differences in the foreign trade business environment of the Pearl River Delta urban agglomeration are small, and the cities play an important role in improving the foreign trade business environment; second, the foreign trade business environment is not fully constrained by economic development, so the foreign trade business environment can be more advanced than the city’s economic level and serve as the impetus for economic growth; third, there has been an improvement in how the attractiveness of foreign capital influences the foreign trade business environment. The Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) agreement should be implemented in local cities, in order to construct an institutional framework of fair competition, enhance the transparency of investment barriers, and strengthen the protection of foreign investors’ rights.
The Effects of Guided Reading on Independent Reading and Reading Fluency in Primary Grades. (c2022)
Authors:   ,   Lebanese American University, Chamli Yasmine
Published: August 2022

Multiple changes have been implemented in reading instructions in schools and educators and researchers constantly look for teaching strategies that would optimize their students’ reading. According to the International Literacy Association (2020), the greatest challenges in literacy include supporting English learners, supporting students reading below grade level, and teaching students how to read (ILA, 2020). The following study examines the effect of guided reading, a popular instructional reading approach that encompasses several teaching strategies used together to enhance learning in the classroom, on the two dependent variables: independent reading and reading fluency. This research follows a retrospective cohort study design over the course of three consecutive years on the same cohort from grades one to three and the research question “How does guided reading promote reading fluency and independent reading in primary grades?” guides this study. Data has been already collected for purposes other than research. The data instruments are running records and anecdotal records; the quantitative and qualitative data are analyzed to check for a causational correlation between guided reading and independent reading, and guided reading and reading fluency. Findings reveal that guided reading positively affects reading fluency and independent reading. Guided reading promotes guided reading for different reasons including scaffolding, modeling of reading strategies, and consistency in the execution of the program. Ethical considerations were taken in consideration throughout this research to protect the anonymity and confidentiality of the sample involved.
Teachers’ and Principals’ Perceptions of Homeroom versus Subject Teachers. (c2022)
Authors:   ,   Lebanese American University, Fakih Zeinab
Published: August 2022

In elementary, two instructional models exist: the homeroom teacher model in which teachers are responsible for instruction of all subject matters and the subject-teacher model where teachers are specialists in a particular field, such as math or science and hence teach these subject-matters only. Within the Lebanese context, both instructional models exist at schools. The purpose of this study was to investigate the teachers’ and principals’ perceptions of the benefits and limitations of both instructional models. Both quantitative and qualitative data were collected through questionnaires and interviews. The participants consisted of four principals and 63 elementary teachers from private schools in Beirut. Both qualitative and quantitative results were comparable and showed that most of the participants believed that homeroom teachers have better connection with students and better knowledge of their students. They also reported that homeroom teachers have better connections with the students’ parents as well. Moreover, the participants believed that the homeroom teacher is not less knowledgeable than the subject teacher and both share a similar workload. The results also revealed that the participants favored the homeroom instructional model at the elementary level suggesting that the benefits of this model outweigh its limitations. That is, the participants believed that in this model, the homeroom teachers who accompany the students during the entire school year cater better to the emotional and academic needs of students whereas the subject teachers are less in contact with the students and focus mostly on delivering the content of instruction. Further research is needed on larger scales to confirm these results.

Dil yozlaşmasının ‘failleri’: Bir söylem analizi
Authors: VARIŞOĞLU Behice , IRMAK Ebru
Published: August 2022

Bir dilin yozlaşması o dilin yapısında ve işleyişinde bulunan en yaratıcı, güzel, zengin biçim ve niteliklerin yok olması, anlatım yollarının zayıflaması, dilin gerileme sürecine girmesi olarak izah edilebilir. Bir olgu niteliği kazanan dil yozlaşması konusu, pek çok araştırmada ele alınmıştır. İlgili çalışmalarda yozlaşmanın nedenleri, yayılması, engellenmesi gibi konulara değinilmiştir. Bu çerçevede söz konusu araştırmalar, dilin niteliksizleşmesinin öncelikli sebebi olarak dil kullanıcılarını görmüşlerdir. Dil kullanıcısı olmak, dile ait eylemlerin eyleyeni yani faili olmak demektir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, dil yozlaşması literatüründeki çalışmalarda yozlaşmaya neden olan faillerin kimler olduğunu vurgulamak ve söylemler üzerinden bir değerlendirme yapmaktır. Bu bakımdan farklı çalışmalardan yapılan alıntılar referans gösterilerek yozlaşmanın failleri söylem analiziyle tespit edilip yorumlanmaya çalışılmıştır. Nitel araştırma yöntemlerinden biri olan söylem analizi dil yapılarına odaklanan bir yöntemdir. Çalışmanın kapsamı Türkçenin yozlaşma sorununu dile getiren, dil yozlaşması literatüründen seçilen ve atıf yapılan metinlerle sınırlı tutulmuştur. Alıntılar, araştırmanın amacını yansıtması bakımından söylem analizinin açıklayıcı repertuvarlar ve özne pozisyonları kavramları çerçevesinde incelenmiştir. Bu bağlamda, dil yozlaşmasının failleri olarak üç ana kaynak tespit edilmiştir. Alıntılardan hareketle belirlenen “Medya, Genç ve İş yeri” repertuvarları, incelenen çalışmalarda dil yozlaşmasının açık failleri olarak görülmüştür. Söz konusu failler, benliğin dışına itilerek ‘öteki’ şeklinde konumlandırılmıştır.
Halk türkülerinde saklanan hayatlar: Kadın ağzı türküleri

Published: August 2022

Toplumda sosyal aktör olan bireyin süreç içerisinde sosyalleşmesi, geleneklerle bütünleşen kültürel özelliklerle oluşmuş toplumsal rol kalıplarının içselleştirilmesidir. Toplumsal hayatta cinsiyete dayalı roller ülkelerin kabulleri oranında paylaşılmıştır. Halkın sesi olarak toplumun yaşam biçimlerini, geleneklerini, örf ve adetlerini, tecrübe ve hikâyelerini, inançlarını, kültürel izlerini kapsayan türküler, pek çok sosyolojik ve kültürel ögenin yer aldığı veri kaynaklarındandır. Halk ürünü türkülerin veri kaynağı olarak incelenmesi, bireyin yaşadığı dönemle ilgili bilgi aktardığı gibi onun duygu ve düşüncelerini de içinde barındırır. Bu çalışmada amaç, kırsal kesim kadınlarının geçmişini, o geçmişteki rollerini ve kapsama alanlarını, yaşadıkları dönemin sosyo-kültürel yapısı içerisinde ele alarak kadınların nasıl yaşadıklarını, bu yapıları nasıl algıladıklarını, yorumladıklarını ve bunlardan nasıl etkilendiklerini sözlü halk edebiyatı ürünlerinden olan türküler vasıtasıyla inceleyebilmek ve iç dünyalarını ortaya koyabilmektir. Halk kültürünün önemli bir bölümünü kapsayan, kadınlar tarafından seslendirilmiş ve alanyazında “kadın ağzı türküleri” diye yer alan, kendini ifade ediş yollarından biri olan türküler, Anadolu kadınlarının yaşadıkları dönemde üstlendikleri rolleri anlayabilmek adına önemli belgelerdir. Elbette kültürel dokunun oluşturduğu farklı topluluklarda yaşayan ve farklı sınıfsal, ırksal ve cinsel yönelimlere sahip olan kadınlar oldukça farklı yaşam koşullarına sahiptir. Bu çalışmada incelenen türküler belirli bir bölgenin değil, kırsal kesimde kadın olmak gerçeğinin halk türkülerine bazen açık bazen örtülü anlamda yansıyan ipuçlarını yakalayabilmek adına türkülerin mercek altına alınmasıdır. Bu amaçla incelenen türkü dizelerinden ortaya çıkan sonuca göre, kırsal kesimde yaşayan ve sosyal aktör olarak kabul edilmeyen kadınların ataerkil aile yapısı dolayısıyla hayatını idame ettirme, aile kurma, çocuk sahibi olma gibi en temel boyutlarda bile maalesef söz hakkının olmadığıdır.

Fatwa on Sharia Products and Its Role in The Development of Islamic Finance Industry
Authors: Zaini Faizi , Bin Shuib Mohd Sollehudin
Published: August 2022

The development of the Islamic finance industry in Indonesia has increased rapidly and satisfactorily. This can be seen from the growing number of Islamic financial institutions with a total of 4,000 institutions in 2019. These thousands of institutions offer sharia services and products; Islamic banks, Islamic people’s credit, sharia insurance, sharia pension funds, sharia pawnshops, sharia cooperatives, and sharia financial technology (fintech), etc. The rapid development of the Islamic financial market is a serious challenge for sharia economic experts who are members of the official institution of the National Sharia Council. This institution has the sole authority in issuing fatwas on sharia economics and finance in Indonesia. This paper reviews the thought products of the National Sharia Council in issuing fatwas in the form of sharia financial products that are flexible, meeting market demands/customer needs, and complying with sharia principles. The data was collected from DSN’s fatwas on sharia products from 1999-2010. Furthermore, the content analysis method was used to analyze the contents of DSN’s fatwa. The analysis result shows that DSN’s ijtihad in producing sharia products has not been sufficient a priori to rely on classical books which are very normative but must rely on economic demands/needs of modern financial markets.

Düşünceyi ifade edebilme özgürlüğü, diğer birçok özgürlük sahasını bünyesinde barındıran bir şemsiye gibidir. Bilgi edinme, bilgiyi paylaşma, örgütlenme ve toplantı düzenleme şeklinde çok sayıda türev özgürlük alanı demokratik hukuk devletlerinin gelişimi açısından öncü roller üstlenmektedir. Yenilikçi fikirlerin belirebilmesi ifade özgürlüğü ile mümkündür. Yeni taleplerin dile getirilmesi, farklı fikirlerin oluşması ve tartışılabilmesi, bireylere farklı kanaatler arasında seçim yapabilme kabiliyeti tanımakta ve toplumsal dönüşüme katkı sunmaktadır. Ancak ifade özgürlüğü mutlak bir özgürlük alanı şeklinde yorumlanmamalıdır; demokratik ülkelerde ifadenin özgürlüğü kadar sınırlarının da olması doğaldır. Bu sınırlar ulusal ve uluslararası mevzuatta tanımlandığı gibi, yargı organları kararlarıyla da şekillendirilmiştir. Çalışmamızda ifade özgürlüğünün kapsamını, bu kapsama ilişkin sınırları ve özgürlük alanına ilişkin müdahalelerin çerçevesini Avrupa İnsan Hakları Sözleşmesi’ndeki düzenlemeler ve Avrupa İnsan Hakları Mahkemesi kararları ışığında ele alacağız.

permasalahan melihat Allah adalah permasalahan yang sudah ada sejak permulaan masa Mu’tazilah dan masa Ahmad bin Hanbal. Permasalahan tersebut terus berlanjut sampai masa Al-Qadhi Abdul Jabbar dan Ibnu Taimiyyah. Melihat Allah adalah sebuah permasalahan akal, oleh karena itulah beberapa kelompok dan madzhab saling berbeda pendapat dalam menetapkan persoalan ini, sebagian mereka mengatakan bahwasanya Allah tidak dapat dilihat di dunia dan di akhirat dan sebagian lainnya menetapkan bahwa Allah dapat dilihat ketika di akhirat nanti. Artikel ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui hakekat permasalahan ini melalui kritik Ibnu Taimiyyah terhadap pemikiran Al-Qadhi Abdul Jabbar tentang melihat Allah dan mengetahui metode apa yang digunakan oleh keduanya.Dalam penelitian ini peneliti menggunakan metode deskriptif dengan memaparkan argumentasi Al-Qadhi Abdul Jabbar tentang melihat Allah dan metode analisis dengan menganalisis pemikiran Al-Qadhi Abdul Jabbar dalam permasalahan tersebut, kemudian menganalisis kritik Ibnu Taimiyyah terhadap argumentasi Al-Qadhi Abdul Jabbar tentangpermasalahan melihat Allah yang bersumber dari Al-Qur'an dan Al-HadistSetelah melakukan penelitian secara mendalam, peneliti menemukan beberapa metode yang digunakan oleh Al-Qadhi Abdul Jabbar di dalam membahas akidah yaitu : mengedepankan akal dari pada naql, menjadikan akal sebagai dalil, menolak khabar wahid dan memakai dalil dari ta’wil al kalamiy. Sedangkan metode Ibnu Taimiyyah dalam membahas masalah aqidah yaitu mengedepankan naql dari pada akal, menjadikan khabar wahid sebagai dalil , menolak ta’wil al-kalamiy, dan memakai dalil yang bersumber dari Al-Quran dan Hadist Shahih.
Tindak Tutur Ujaran Ustaz Basalamah Mengenai Pengharaman Wayang
Authors: Fizriyani Wilda
Published: August 2022

This article aims to reveal the locutionary and illocutionary forms of utterances made by the religious figure Ustaz Khalid Zeed Abdullah Basalamah, commonly known as Ustaz Basalamah, about the prohibition of wayang. To analyse the data, listening and recording techniques were used from the recorded question and answer between Ustaz Basalamah and the congregation regarding the prohibition of wayang. At the data analysis stage, the distributional method was used by emphasizing the lingual unit of the language that was the target of the research. Through various stages of analysis, the researcher found two of the five types of illocutionary speech acts in Searle's (1969) theory of Ustaz Basalamah's utterances. The two types of illocutionary speech acts are assertive and directive. In the assertive illocutionary act, the researcher found at least five utterances that fall into that category. Meanwhile, four utterances are included in the type of directive illocutionary speech act.

The problem of teaching styles of teachers in the science arm of secondary schools in Nigeria has been a subject of concern and discuss. Many studies have been carried out to investigate factors that affect teaching styles but very few have considered the role of high-stakes tests. This study, therefore, investigated the influence of high-stakes tests on the teaching styles of science teachers in senior secondary schools in Nigeria. Two research questions were raised and answered, and three hypotheses were formulated and tested to guide the study at a .05 level of significance. The study used a descriptive research design. A sample of 6349 students and teachers was utilized for the study. The research instrument used for data collection was the questionnaire titled: High-stakes and Teaching Styles Questionnaire (HSTSQ). The instrument was subjected to face and content validity; Cronbach Alpha reliability analysis yielded a 0.84 coefficient. The data collected were analyzed using descriptive statistics, multiple regression and independent t-test statistics. The results using multiple regression revealed that significant influence exists for the independent variable (high-stakes tests, r = 0.408, p < 0.05). The mean difference in the opinions of the respondents regarding high-stakes tests was higher for teachers (X̅ = 53.63, SD = 6.77) than students (X̅ = 52.8904, SD = 7.55), t(6347) = -2.704, p > 0.05, F = 1.322, p = .250), and there was a significant difference. In conclusion, high-stakes test factors have a significant influence on the teaching styles of teachers. Therefore, it is recommended among others, that teachers and educators should pay attention to the effects of high-stakes testing in their schools.

In this study, it was investigated whether fear of happiness and ruminative thinking predict psychological resilience in university students. In addition, the predictive level of fear of happiness and ruminative thinking of psychological resilience subscales was investigated. Finally, it examines whether there is a significant difference between students' fear of happiness, ruminative thought and psychological resilience levels according to gender. The population of the study is the students studying at the faculty of education of a university located in the Mediterranean region of Turkey in the fall semester of the 2021-2022 academic year. The sample group consisted of 296 students, 212 (71.6%) girls and 84 (28.4%) boys, aged between 17 and 34 (x̄=21.81), selected by the easily accessible sampling method. For data collection, a personal information form created by the researchers, Fear of Happiness Scale, Ruminative Thought Style Scale and Psychological Resilience Scale for Adults were used. Findings obtained in the study: It was found that fear of happiness and ruminative thinking together negatively predicted resilience at a significant level. Fear of happiness and ruminative thought explain approximately 12% of the variance in students' resilience scores. Regarding the predictive level of fear of happiness and ruminative thinking of the sub-dimensions of psychological resilience; self-perception (19.9% of variance), future perception (10% of variance), social competence (5% of variance), family adjustment (3% of variance), and social resources (3% of variance) are negative significant predictors. Finally, there is a significant difference between students' psychological resilience and self-perception sub-dimensions of psychological resilience according to gender.
Examination of The Perceptions of Students Learning Arabic Language through Drawings
Authors:   Bartın University, Turkey, Çilek Ersin
Published: August 2022

The Arabic language is one of the essential and lively communication languages of today's world, making it inevitable to benefit from new methods that will develop four basic language skills in an equal and balanced way in Arabic teaching. However, it is essential to determine how effective and appropriate this teaching is in terms of feedback. Therefore, this study aimed to examine the perceptions of 5th and 6th-grade students towards Arabic through the pictures they drew. Participants in the study were determined using the criterion sampling strategy. The research data consists of pictures drawn by 168 students about the Arabic language. The content analysis technique was used to analyze the obtained data. Student drawings were examined in five categories: theme, environment, human characters, tools and motifs, and expressions and symbols that reflect emotions. As a result of the evaluations, most students associate Arabic with foreign language and religious phenomena. At the same time, in light of the data obtained, it is concluded that the students have a favorable view of Arabic.

GR-IDEA: An Innovative Model of Mentoring in Adult Education
Authors: Koutsoukos Marios
Published: August 2022

The various models of mentoring presented in the international literature can be placed into two main categories, namely, those based on behaviourism which support knowledge transmission, and those based on constructivism which support knowledge transformation. The model presented in this paper is based on constructivism and it has been developed as a supporting practice of adult educators. The two dimensions Group and Reflection are the pillars of the model, while its key components, which are at the same time developmental stages, are: Inspiration, Development, Empowerment, and Action.
Towards an understanding of the attitudes behind atrocity perpetration: Construct validity of a measure of democidal mindset
Authors: Siritzky Meghan , Saucier Gerard
Published: August 2022

The current study involves construct validation of a questionnaire that measures attitudes of potential perpetrators of democide -- government-endorsed mass killing. We distinguished the violent political extremism of democidal mindset from other extreme political attitudes: Right-Wing Authoritarianism (RWA), Left-Wing Authoritarianism (LWA), Social Dominance Orientation (SDO), Fascism, and Ethnonationalism. We confirmed the dimensionality of the Democidal Mindset Questionnaire (DMQ) using Procrustes rotation to a reference target set by the 10-oblique-factor structure obtained in previous data. In multiple-regression analyses controlling for effects of country, gender, and age, combined political attitude measures accounted for 71% of variance in DMQ factor scores on average, suggesting high overlap but not redundancy. Ethnonationalism and Fascism stood out as significant predictors of all ten dimensions. However, exploratory factor analysis revealed that the overlap between DMQ dimensions and other constructs does not apply to the same degree to all components of democidal mindset. The mindsets associated with the perpetration of atrocities go above and beyond the sets of beliefs commonly associated with authoritarianism, fascism, social dominance orientation, and ethnonationalism - or any combination thereof. Although these now-conventional constructs capture most of the variance in some aspects of democidal mindset, they largely miss other aspects.
Flexible top-down control in the interaction between working memory and perception

Successful goal-directed behavior often requires continuous sensory processing whilesimultaneously maintaining task-related information in working memory (WM). Although WMand perception are known to interact, little is known about how their interactions are controlled.Here, we tested the hypothesis that WM-perception interactions engage two distinct modes ofcontrol– proactive and reactive -- in a manner similar to classic conflict-adaptation tasks (e.g.,Stroop, flanker, Simon). Participants performed a delayed-recall-of-orientation WM task, plus astand-alone visual-discrimination-of-orientation task that occurred during the delay period, andwith the congruity in orientation between the tasks manipulated. Proactive control was seen inthe sensitivity of task performance to previous trial’s congruity (i.e., a Gratton effect). Reactivecontrol was observed in a repulsive serial-dependence produced by incongruent discriminanda.Quantitatively, these effects were explained by parameters from a reinforcement learning-basedmodel that tracks trial-to-trial fluctuations in control demand: reactive control by a phasic controlprediction error (control PE), and proactive control by a tonic level of predicted conflict updatedeach trial by the control PE. Thus, WM-perception interactions may be controlled by the samemechanisms that govern conflict in other domains of cognition, such as response selection.
Multivariate pattern analysis of EEG reveals nuanced impact of negation on sentence processing in the N400 and later time windows

Published: August 2022

The neurocognitive mechanism underlying negation processing remains controversial. While negation is suggested to modulate the access of word meaning, no such evidence has been observed in the event-related potential (ERP) literature on sentence processing. In the current study, we applied both univariate ERPs and multivariate pattern analysis (MVPA) methods to examine the processing of sentence negation. We investigated two types of negative congruent/incongruent sentence pairs with truth-value evaluation (e.g., ‘A robin is a/not a bird’) and without (e.g., ‘The woman reads a/no book’). In the N400 time window, ERPs consistently showed increased negativity for negative and incongruent conditions. MVPA, on the other hand, revealed nuanced interactions between polarity and congruency. In the later P600 time window, MVPA but not the ERPs revealed an effect of congruency, which may be functionally distinct from the N400 window. We further used cross-decoding to show that the cognitive processes underlying the N400 window for both affirmative and negative sentences are comparable; whereas in the P600 window, only for the truth sentences, negative sentences showed a distinct neural pattern from their affirmative counterparts. Our results thus speak for a more interactive, but nevertheless serial and bi-phasic, and potentially construction-dependent account of negation processing. We also discuss the advantage of applying MVPA in addition to the classical univariate methods for a better understanding of the neurobiology of negation processing and language comprehension alike.
