Improving the Accuracy of Experimental Hydrate Equilibrium Point Determination: A Mini-Review
Authors: M Aminnaji
Published: August 2023

Reliable gas hydrate equilibrium data is necessary to assess the severity of hydrate problems in the oil and gas industry and successfully implement the benefit of hydrate technologies in different areas such as hydrate-based CO2 capture and storage. Furthermore, the hydrate equilibrium point prediction models rely on tuning experimental data. In this mini-review, various techniques for hydrate dissociation point (DP) measurement either in the presence or absence of liquid water phase are discussed to improve the accuracy of the measurement. While both Visual and non-visual techniques can be used to measure hydrate DP, the non-visual isochore procedure is the most common technique. The stepwise heating procedure for hydrate dissociation to measure the DP is recommended due to its ability to improve accuracy and save time. However, it is essential to exercise caution during the data interpretation to avoid measuring inaccurate DP. In particular, considering the dissociation of various hydrate structures is crucial to enhance the accuracy of DP determination when employing non-visual techniques.

Authors: Alchieri Joao Carlos
Published: August 2023

This is a study of technological development in the elaboration of a computerized instrument for the evaluation of the selfperception of academic well-being, based on the theory of subjective well-being of Positive Psychology. It aimed to build an instrument and seek evidence of validity via web application as a technology for evaluation of the construct of academic well-being in university students. Descriptive and exploratory, quantitative field investigation with 702 volunteer academics from Universities from different geopolitical regions in Brazil. After the theoretical analysis, through an integrative review, which allowed the construction of the items, which initially were 50 items. In the construction of the instrument, factors related to the content of academic well-being were obtained, with Eigenvalue equal to or greater than 0.44 being defined. Thus, 03 Factors were evidenced: Factor 01 - Self-confidence and professional academic achievement, with 27 items; Factor 02 - Social support with 2 items; and Factor 3 - Self-perceived limitations in income, with 11 items. The total scale presented McDonald’s Omega of 0.894, with 40 items in its final version. The validity conditions were guaranteed, together with the reliability, of the three subscales and the total scale assured. Such aspects of the evaluation of academic well-being can be employed in verifications after the return of university activities, identifying possibilities of changes in the academic scenario and strategies of interventions and behavioral readaptations.
Less Thinking, More doing: Rumination and Avoidant ProblemSolving Increase Risk of Depression in Response to Cyber Victimization
Authors: Schuttenberg Eleanor M.
Published: August 2023

Cyber victimization (CV) is a prevalent and harmful stressor for college students that increases risk for depression. However, little is known about how CV leads to depression in this population. To investigate potential mechanisms of this relationship, the present study examined the intermediary roles of two established predictors of depression: rumination and maladaptive social problem-solving styles. Undergraduates (n = 410) self-reported CV, rumination, social problem-solving styles, and depression. CV exposure was associated with more rumination and depression, and rumination mediated the relationship between CV and depression. Avoidant Style, characterized by procrastination or avoidance of problems, but not Impulsive Carelessness Style, characterized by hurried, often tactless, attempts to solve problems, moderated the relationship between rumination and depression in this sample. The results support that rumination mediates CV and depression and demonstrate the moderating role of avoidant behaviors in explaining how rumination leads to depression. Future research should investigate how targeting rumination and avoidance can help prevent individuals who experience CV from developing depression.
Regional economic resistance and divergence in Ireland, 2011–22
Authors: Van Egeraat Chris , Curran Declan , Breathnach Proinnsias
Published: August 2023

This paper examines the resistance of Irish regions to potential future economic shock, focusing specifically on employment change in firms in receipt of assistance from the Irish government’s enterprise development agencies. The paper classifies both regions and sectors in terms of their employment performance during the course of the 2011–22 period and assesses the roles of sectoral composition and firm nationality in shaping regional performance. While nationality mix is significant, sectoral composition is seen as having a more important impact on regional employment performance. It then uses the same approach to predict the performance of regions in the context of potential future shocks post 2022. The paper suggests that the Border region is the least resistant to potential future shock. Other regions with relatively low resistance include the Mid East and the Midlands. The paper subsequently considers the implications of the findings for both regional economic divergence trends and the policy aim of balanced regional development in Ireland.
Ranging behaviour of an adult female greater spotted eagle (Clanga clanga) wintering in Sudan for 10 years, as revealed by satellite telemetry
Authors: Meyburg Bernd-Ulrich , Mizera Tadeusz , Maciorowski Grzegorz , Karelus Dana , Meyburg Christiane , McGrady Michael J.
Published: August 2023

Using global position system (GPS) technology, we tracked an adult female greater spotted eagle (Clanga clanga) on its wintering grounds in the Sudan-South Sudan borderland during 2005–2015. There were 10 909 GPS locations for this bird in the non-breeding range. Throughout the study, the eagle showed fidelity to its wintering grounds. The non-breeding season coincided with the dry season. The median arrival date was 11 October (n = 10). The median departure date (n = 10) was 4 March, and was less variable than the arrival date. The 95% kernel density estimate (KDE) for all years was 33 838 km2, and the 50% KDE encompassed 6 585 km2. The wintering range was split between two areas, west and east, with the eagle typically arriving in the western area, where it stayed for some time. It then moved about 330 km to the eastern area, where it would remain for a few weeks before departing for Europe in the spring. In both the western and eastern subareas, the annual home ranges overlapped to a variable extent (14–99%). The high degree of fidelity to the wintering grounds shown by this bird was mirrored by the behaviours of two other adult greater spotted eagles that we tracked (using >1 tracking devices) for 15 years that wintered in South Sudan and Turkey. The number of greater spotted eagles that winter in Africa is a matter of speculation, although virtually all individuals are likely to pass through a narrow corridor near Suez, Egypt. Collectively, these tracking data and the findings of other studies suggest that greater spotted eagles from the western parts of the European breeding range often move to Africa. Further, the Sudd wetlands in South Sudan are important for greater spotted eagles and other rare bird species during the non-breeding season.

Authors: Wardani Peni Arianita , Rahmanita Meiga , Farhan Muhamad , Pramudita Rizqi Febrian
Published: August 2023

Kelor Tourism Village is a tourism destination that is well-developed in Sleman Regency. This study aimed to analyze the forms of community participation in developing Kelor Tourism Village as a tourism destination. Qualitative descriptive method was used to describe the phenomena in the research object by using observation, interviews, and documentation to collect the data. This study showed the form of community participation in Kelor Tourism Village which consisted of two types: direct and indirect participation. The direct participation could be seen in the participation of the villagers, which included providers of tourist attractions, homestay providers, and the managers of Pokdarwis, in making decisions in every stage of the development of the tourist village. Meanwhile, the form of indirect participation carried out by the villagers was the participation in investing the operational costs of the tourism village. These participation forms have been solidly built since the beginning of their formation until now. The administrators’ enthusiasm in encouraging the community was a factor to grow their sense of ownership. Strong participation among the community also made Kelor Tourism Village economically independent and sustainable.
PERCEPCIÓN SOBRE VIOLENCIA MACHISTA INSTITUCIONAL POR PARTE DE PROFESIONALES Y MUJERES SUPERVIVIENTES: UNA INVESTIGACIÓN DESDE EL TRABAJO SOCIAL
Authors: Pérez-Martín Sabela , Vázquez Silva Iria , Verde-Diego Carmen
Published: August 2023

Los mitos sexistas ejercen una influencia significativa en el imaginario colectivo en relación con la violencia machista, lo que afecta al criterio de los diversos agentes profesionales implicados en el proceso de denuncia de dicha violencia. Esta investigación de corte cualitativo, busca poner de manifiesto el sexismo que impera en las instituciones mediante la utilización de mitos misóginos, a través de la realización de 15 entrevistas semiestructuradas a diferentes profesionales del ámbito socio-jurídico y policial, así como a mujeres supervivientes que fueron sometidas a sexismo institucional durante el proceso de denuncia de la violencia machista que atravesaron. Los resultados revelan que la reproducción de mitos y estereotipos misóginos a menudo conduce a las mujeres supervivientes y a sus hijas e hijos, a una segunda experiencia de victimización, con graves consecuencias jurídicas que conllevan una menor protección y, por tanto, un mayor riesgo de sufrir más violencia. Además, el impacto psicosocial que implica el sexismo institucional, puede obstaculizar e incluso impedir la recuperación del trauma de la violencia machista.
“TEMOS QUE APRENDER A VIVER COM ISSO”: VIVÊNCIAS DE RACISMO DAS ESTUDANTES AFRICANAS NO ENSINO SUPERIOR EM PORTUGAL
Authors: Doutor Catarina , Alves Natália
Published: August 2023

O artigo versa sobre o racismo e o género feminino e tem como objetivo compreender as experiências de racismo vividas pelas estudantes africanas no ensino superior em Portugal. Para tal, foram realizadas entrevistas de cariz biográfico a dez estudantes provenientes dos Países Africanos de Língua Oficial Portuguesa que frequentavam uma instituição de Ensino Superior em Portugal. Os resultados obtidos revelam que as estudantes africanas são, frequentemente, confrontadas com diversas manifestações de racismo, no Ensino Superior, associadas sobretudo à cultura africana e à “cor da pele”. Ademais, o racismo é um fenómeno que acarreta múltiplas consequências negativas, como barreiras no estabelecimento de redes sociais com os colegas, no sentimento de pertença e bem-estar, na aprendizagem e, consequentemente, no sucesso académico. As considerações finais destacam que a existência de racismo no ensino superior em contexto português compromete seriamente a adaptação e integração académica e social das estudantes africanas. Assim, este artigo contribui para a compreensão das experiências de racismo vividas pelas estudantes africanas no ensino superior em Portugal.

Published: August 2023

This article reports on a study that explored how an open distance learning (ODL) institution is integrating its online processes in handling e-tutors’ experiences as they transition from face-to-face to blended facilitation. The study examined the following key issues: firstly, conceptions of how the university strategy transitions conventional tutors into its open distance e-learning (ODeL) system; secondly, conceptions of how e-tutors bridge the gap between facilitation and student support; and thirdly, how e-tutors are integrated in the ODeL institution’s system in relation to their personal academic development. The study adopted a qualitative exploratory approach, which relied on documentary sources and the experiences of university e-tutors at the Botswana Open University (BOU) captured through telephonic and online interviews. It is argued that the world is changing due to the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic. The changes have been fast, radical, demanding and uncertain. However, ODeL institutions can do more to confront these challenges. The study findings indicated that BOU has positively responded to these changes by relying on its capabilities and strengths. The article provides insights for improved access, success, tutor identities and development. The article ends with recommendations on what could be done to improve learning, teaching and practice as facilitated by e-tutors within ODeL institutions as they recover from the ravages of the Covid-19 pandemic.

Two-dimensional materials have unusual properties and promise applications in nanoelectronics, spintronics, photonics, (electro)catalysis, separations, and elsewhere. Most are inorganic and their properties are difficult to tune. Here we report the preparation of Zn porphene, a member of a new organic metalloporphene family. Similar to graphene, these also are fully conjugated two-dimensional polymers, but are composed of fused metalloporphyrin rings. Zn porphene is synthesized on water surface by two-dimensional oxidative polymerization of a Langmuir bilayer of Zn porphyrin with K2IrCl6, reminiscent of known one-dimensional polymerization of pyrroles. It is transferable to other substrates and bridges μm-sized pits. Contrary to previous theoretical predictions of metallic conductivity, it is a p-type semiconductor due to a Peierls distortion of its unit cell from square to rectangular, analogous to the appearance of bond-length alternation in antiaromatic molecules. The observed reversible insertion of various metal ions, possibly carrying a fifth or sixth ligand, promises tunability and even patterning of circuits on an atomic canvas without removing any π centers from conjugation.

In situ Observation of Nanoparticle Photocharging: Gold Nanorods as Photochemical Capacitors
Authors: Stete Felix , Koopman Wouter , Bargheer Matias
Published: August 2023

Light can photochemically charge plasmonic nanoparticles and in doing so modulate their Fermi level. Although this effect is increasingly applied to rationalize the kinetic enhancement observed in plasmonic photochemistry, the underlying charging mechanism is challenging to trace experimentally. Here, we introduce a method to observe the charging process of gold nanorods \textit{in situ} by tracing the longitudinal plasmon resonance during the photoinduced charge transfer from a hole scavenger. The obtained data provides spectroscopic evidence that the charging process can be understood in the frame of a nanoscale capacitor model, were the applied voltage is governed by the chemical potential of holes generated in the 5d-bands of gold. We also investigated the influence of particle size, oxygen content in the solvent and ligand on the charging, which further corroborates the proposed capacitor model. This work presents the first step for the rational engineering of Fermi levels in plasmon photochemistry.

Geleneksel yaklaşımda işlem süreleri sabitken Yalın-hat dengesiyle gelir artışı sağlanacağı çok kaynakta kabul görmektedir. Bu çalışmada işlem süresi değişken olduğunda S-DBR (Simplified Drum Buffer Rope: Sadeleştirilmiş Kısıt Tampon Bağ) yaklaşımıyla geleneksel Yalın-hat dengesi yaklaşımından daha yüksek gelir elde etme potansiyelinin ortaya çıkarılması hedeflenmiştir. Bu amaçla Yalın-hat dengesi ve S-DBR temel kurguları simülasyonla modellenerek işlem sürelerinin değişken olduğu senaryoda kıyaslanmış ve istatistik değerlendirilmesi yapılmıştır. İşlem sürelerinde değişkenlik varken Yalın-hat dengesinde gününde teslim oranı %100’ den %82’ ye düşmüştür. S-DBR yöntemiyle değişkenliğe rağmen %84 gününde teslim oranıyla net gelirde %4, üretimde %3 artış elde edilmiştir. Dolayısıyla sadece üretim planlama ve yönetim metodunun değiştirilmesiyle ilave yatırım gerektirmeden iş ortamındaki değişkenliğe daha dayanıklı ve daha rekabetçi olmak mümkündür. Çalışmanın özgünlüğü, üretim firmaları için Kısıtlar Teorisindeki uygun üretim çözümünün seçimi, S-DBR yönteminin uygulama ve iyileştirme algoritmalarının literatür senteziyle oluşturulması, istatistiksel uygulanabilirlik değerlendirmesi ve gelecek araştırmalar için içgörü oluşturmasıdır.
Detection and Validation of A2 Milk Suitable for Consumers Having Milk Intolerance by ELISA Method
Authors: Yayla Mediha Esra
Published: August 2023

Casein proteins, which make up 80% of the total proteins in cow's milk, consist of mainly A1 and A2 genetic types which differ by a mutation that causes conversion from proline to histidine. Histidine-containing A1 protein undergoes proteolytic degradation in the gastrointestinal system, while this is not observed during the digestion of A2 protein. A1 milk consumption causes bloating, gas, discomfort and symptoms confused with lactose intolerance. Studies showed that A1 milk consumption may cause diabetes, coronary heart disease, arteriosclerosis, sudden infant death, and is associated with autism and schizophrenia. With an increasing trend in the world, A2A2 milk (milk without A1 protein) production is becoming widespread with consumer preferences; and, A2 milk takes its place on the market shelves. With the onset of this trend, the need for a new analysis on food safety became evident. It will be required by food control laboratories to test the absence of A1 protein in milk to be labeled as A2 milk. In this study, the quantitative analysis and validation of β-casein A1 and A2 proteins in cow's milk by EnzymeLinked ImmunoSorbent Analysis (ELISA) method was investigated. The methods have detection limits of 1.8 and 0.8 ppm, and quantitation limits of 17 and 2.4 ppm for A1 and A2, respectively.

Study and evaluation of natural zeolite and dried zeolite for the cultivation of friggitello pepper
Authors: Domenico Prisa
Published: August 2023

Research objective: The aim of this research was to evaluate whether differences exist between natural and dried chabazite zeolite in the cultivation of Friggitello peppers Materials and Methods: The experiments, which started in January 2023, were conducted in the CREA-OF greenhouses in Pescia (Pt), Tuscany, Italy (43°54′N 10°41′E) on 'Friggitello' pepper seedlings. The plants were placed in pots with a diameter of 16, 10 plants per 3 replications, for a total of 30 seedlings per experimental thesis. The pepper trial included the following theses (irrigated and fertilised): i) peat 70% + pumice 30%; ii) peat 70% + pumice 10% + natural chabazite zeolite 20%; iii) peat 70% + pumice 10% + dried chabazite zeolite 20%. Plant height, number of leaves, vegetative weight, root volume and length, number of fruits (peppers), fruit weight and the number of microorganisms in the substrate were determined on 18 July 2023. Results and Discussion: The experiment showed that the use of chabazite zeolite can indeed significantly improve the vegetative and root growth and productive and size fruits of Friggitello pepper plants (Table 1). Clear differences in growth are evident between the use of natural zeolite (ZEONAT) and dried zeolite (ZEOESS), with the natural zeolite performing better with regard to all agronomic parameters analysed. In the substrate analysis, a greater presence of microbial biomass was found in the zeolite theses than in the control theses, with greater superiority of microorganisms in the substrate with natural chabsite zeolite. Zeolites are used successfully in the cultivation of many crops. Including cereals, vegetables, grapes and other fruits. By enhancing the absorption ability of soil, zeolite enhance the long-term quality of soil by retaining nutrients. Conclusions: Due to its high absorption rate, cation exchange, catalysis, and dehydration capacity, chabazite is the most common zeolite for agricultural applications. Therefore, zeolite fertilizers are used to improve plant growth by improving their value. Additionally, they can be used as molecular sieves or filters and retain nitrogen in the manure and sludge they produce. For agricultural production, zeolites must have uniform properties and have unique properties such as cation exchange capacity, pH, and B content. Important differences exist between the use of a natural zeolite and a dried one, especially in the significant presence of useful microbiology in the interactions with the plant, in terms of growth and protection.

Continuidad de tratamiento beneficioso
Authors: Mastroleo Ignacio
Published: August 2023

El capítulo aborda el dilema ético de la continuidad de tratamiento beneficioso en la investigación clínica, enfocándose en la atención posterior a la participación de los sujetos de investigación en ensayos clínicos. Se explora cómo la falta de continuidad de atención médica puede poner en riesgo la salud de los participantes, especialmente cuando carecen de recursos y seguros de salud. El autor introduce una taxonomía de obligaciones éticas relacionadas con el acceso posinvestigación (1.1), contextualiza el concepto históricamente a través de las guías éticas internacionales (1.2) y examina la aparición del término "continuidad de tratamiento beneficioso" y otros términos similares (1.3). La sección 2 presenta casos ejemplares que ilustran el problema de la continuidad de tratamiento beneficioso. Se aborda la continuidad de tratamiento en la investigación del VIH/SIDA (2.1), donde los desafíos de acceso a terapias eficaces y costosas después de los ensayos clínicos resaltan la importancia de la atención a largo plazo. Además, se explora la continuidad de tratamiento en la investigación del cáncer (2.2), demostrando cómo los pacientes enfrentan obstáculos similares para acceder a tratamientos posteriores a la investigación. La sección también aborda otros casos relevantes de continuidad de tratamiento (2.3), evidenciando la relevancia de este problema en diversas áreas médicas. En resumen, el artículo arroja luz sobre la discusión contemporánea acerca de la continuidad de tratamiento beneficioso en la ética de la investigación médica. El autor destaca cómo los participantes en ensayos clínicos a menudo se enfrentan a la interrupción de la atención médica necesaria al concluir su participación en el estudio. Esto plantea desafíos éticos y sociales, especialmente en sociedades con recursos limitados y sistemas de salud inadecuados. A través de un enfoque taxonómico y el análisis de casos, se destaca la importancia de abordar este problema y encontrar soluciones que garanticen una atención continua y apropiada para los sujetos de investigación una vez finalizados los ensayos clínicos. El artículo subraya la necesidad de considerar las implicaciones éticas y prácticas de la continuidad de tratamiento beneficioso en la toma de decisiones médicas y políticas, con el objetivo de proteger la salud y el bienestar de los participantes en la investigación clínica.

How the Predictors of Math Achievement Change over Time: A Longitudinal Machine Learning Approach

Published: August 2023

Researchers have focused extensively on understanding the factors influencing students' academic achievement over time. However, existing longitudinal studies have often examined only a limited number of predictors at one time, leaving gaps in our knowledge about how these predictors collectively contribute to achievement beyond prior performance and how their impact evolves during students' development. To address this, we employed machine learning to analyze longitudinal survey data from 3,425 German secondary school students spanning Years 5 to 9. Our objectives were twofold: to model and compare the predictive capabilities of 105 predictors on math achievement and to track changes in their importance over time. We first predicted standardized math achievement scores in Years 6 to 9 using the variables assessed in the previous year ("next year prediction"). Second, we examined the utility of the variables assessed in Year 5 at predicting future math achievement at varying time lags (1-4 years ahead) --- "varying lag prediction". In the next year prediction analysis, prior math achievement was the strongest predictor, gaining importance over time. In the varying lag prediction analysis, the predictive power of Year 5 math achievement waned with longer time lags. In both analyses, additional predictors, including IQ, grades, motivation and emotion, cognitive strategies, classroom/home environments, and demographics (including SES), exhibited relatively smaller yet consistent contributions, underscoring their distinct roles in predicting math achievement over time. These findings have implications for both future research and educational practices, which are discussed in detail.
Psychiatric morbidities among old people of a city of Eastern Nepal
Authors: Shakya Dhana Ratna , Maskey Robin
Published: August 2023

Introduction: The data regarding prevalence of overall and common psychiatric disorders among community elderly people are scarce in Nepalese context.
Objective: To measure the prevalence of mental problems among old people in a community setting.
Methodology: All people of age ≥ 60 years from ‘Urlabari’, a city in eastern Nepal, being members of a local old-age committee were called to participate in this study. A total of 140 old people attended a health-camp and with informed written consent and authority approval, the response to the GHQ-12 and demographic information were collected. The GHQ-12 score ≥2 was adopted for ‘psychiatric caseness’ analysis. However, people with scores ≥4 were assessed by a psychiatrist for further evaluation and management. Diagnoses were made according the ICD-10.
Results: Majority (87%) were in age groups of (61-70) and (71-80) years. Many (44%) had stressors, common being: dispute with family, illness and death of close person. Many old people had health complaints; mainly physical/ somatic, mood and anxiety symptoms. About 2/5th subjects 55 (39.29%) had GHQ-12 score ≥2 and 26.43% had ≥3; i.e. ‘psychiatric caseness’. Among the subjects with score ≥4 (23) assessed for psychiatric diagnosis, 21 (91.30%) had some ICD-10 diagnosis. Depression, adjustment and anxiety disorders were common diagnoses, and 2% had suicidality.
Conclusion: A remarkable proportion of old people had current ‘psychiatric caseness’. Common mental disorders were depression, adjustment and anxiety disorders among elder people.

Panpsychism and Physical Idealism
Authors: McGrath Killian Francis
Published: August 2023

There is a significant convergence between some contemporary panpsychist theories and idealism. Traditional phenomenal, macro idealism has been widely criticised for its implausible account of physical facts. This paper examines three idealism friendly contemporary panpsychist philosophies
and suggests that with some revisions a plausible realist and physical idealism can be articulated. Taking from information-theoretic models of consciousness and metaphysical arguments for the ontological primacy of mind, it is suggested via a Schelling inspired perspective that aspects of
consciousness??? intrinsic nature provide a promising approach to the decomposition problem which is currently a significant challenge to pan/cosmopsychist theories.
