Indonesia masih menghadapi permasalahan kekurangan gizi pada anak. Terdapat 3 kelompok masalah gizi,  masalah yang telah dapat dikendalikan (finished agenda), masalah gizi yang belum selesai (un-finished agenda) dan yang masalah baru yang mengancam kesehatan masyarakat (emerging problem). Stunting termasuk pada masalah gizi yang belum selesai (un finished agenda). Berdasarkan data Survei Status Gizi Nasional (SSGI) tahun 2022, prevalensi stunting di Indonesia di angka 21,6%. Jumlah ini menurun dibandingkan tahun sebelumnya yaitu 24,4%. Walaupun menurun, angka tersebut masih tinggi, mengingat target prevalensi stunting di tahun 2024 sebesar 14% dan standar WHO di bawah 20%. Pada tahun 2021 terjadi sebanyak 24,5% stunting di Jawa Barat.Terjadi penurunan pada tahun 2022 menjadi 20,2%. Di Kabupaten Ciamis terdapat 3,4% angka kejadian stunting di tahun 2022, sebelumya prevalensi stunting tahun 2021 sebanyak 4,9%, tahun 2020 sebanyak 6,4%.Kekurangan protein hewani selama fase MP-ASI merupakan penyebab utama awal terjadi stunting pada bayi dibawah dua tahun (baduta). Kurang asupan zat gizi sangat dipengaruhi oleh pengetahuan dan perilaku terhadap pemberian jenis MP-ASI yang diberikan. Inovasi media penyuluhan diperlukan agar terjadi peningkatan pengetahuan dan perubahan sikap ibu. Kuresif 2.0: Barcode adalah media audiovisual dalam bentuk saluran barcode yang dapat di scan melalui smartphone berisi pesan kesehatan mengenai aturan dasar pemberian makan pada anak, syarat pemberian MP-ASI menurut WHO, dan modifikasi resep MP-ASI kaya protein hewani bagi bayi 0−23 bulan.

Boosting Learning Algorithms for Chronic Diseases Prediction: A Review
Authors: Mohammed Hassoon Israa
Published: October 2024

Boosting algorithms are a set of machine learning techniques that are predicated on the notion that a weak learner's acquisition of multiple basic classifiers might yield results that are superior to those of any one simple classifier used alone. A comprehensive evaluation of regularly used boosting techniques against highly investigated diseases is lacking, despite the fact that boosting approaches have been used for disease prediction in many studies. Thus, the purpose of this work is to highlight the main algorithms and strategies in the boosting learning. The results of this work will help academics identify a more appropriate boosting approach to predict disease, as well as better understand current patterns and hotspots in diseases prediction models that use boosting learning. The results showed that adaboost algorithm outperformed other algorithms in terms of accuracy, achieving above 90%. This review also demonstrates how combining two boosting methods can increase the basic classifier's accuracy. By using AdaBoost and LightGBM, the accuracy reached 99.75%. XGBoost and Gradient Boosting techniques were employed more frequently in researches than other boosting algorithms.

Perception towards electronic health records & uptake of digital health IDs among the urban residents in northern India: A mixed methods study
Authors: Gandhi Aravind P. , Soundappan Kathirvel
Published: October 2024

Background & objectives

Ayushman Bharat Digital Mission (ABDM) envisages a unique digital health ID for all citizens of India, to create electronic health records (EHR) of individuals. The present study assessed the uptake of Digital Health IDs by the patient and general population, their attitude toward EHR, and explored the barriers to digital ID and utilizing electronic health records services.

Methods

A concurrent explanatory mixed methods study was undertaken in Chandigarh, India, with an analytical cross-sectional design as a quantitative part and a qualitative descriptive study. The study participants were 419 individuals aged ≥18 yr who attended the urban primary healthcare centre (n=399) and the community-based screening camps (n=20) between July 2021 and January 2022. Latent Class Analysis (LCA) was undertaken to identify hidden sub-population characteristics. In-depth interviews were done to identify the barriers to health ID uptake.

Results

The digital health ID uptake rate was 78 per cent (n=327). Among the study participants, those who were aware of EHR, those who wanted a national EHR system, those who were confident with the government on EHR security, and those who were willing to make national EHR accessible for research showed significantly higher digital health ID uptake than their counterparts. The themes identified under barriers of uptake from the qualitative interviews were lack of awareness, technology-related (including digital literacy) and utility-related.

Interpretation & conclusions

Increasing EHR awareness, digital health literacy, and enacting data protection laws may improve the acceptance of the digital health ecosystem in India.

Published: October 2024

Introduction. The treatment of burst fractures at the thoracolumbar junction remains a contentious issue in vertebrology. Despite a broad array of surgical interventions available, many surgeons favor isolated posterior stabilization, which can be performed using either minimally invasive or open approaches. However, the biomechanical properties of these methods have not been thoroughly investigated.
Objective: This study aims to evaluate the biomechanical stability of the thoracolumbar junction following transpedicular stabilization of a burst fracture at the Th12 vertebra, under different system configurations influenced by lateral flexion.
Materials and Methods: A mathematical finite element model of the human thoracolumbar spine, featuring a burst fracture at the Th12 vertebra, was developed. The model included a transpedicular stabilization system with eight screws, simulating “long” stabilization. We examined four variants of transpedicular fixation using both mono- and bicortical screws, with and without the inclusion of two cross-links.
Results: The study found that the load borne by the damaged Th12 vertebral body varied depending on the fixation system employed. Specifically, stress levels were 24.0 MPa, 27.3 MPa, 18.4 MPa, and 25.8 MPa for models with short screws without cross-links, long screws without cross-links, short screws with cross-links, and long screws with cross-links, respectively. At the screw entry points in the vertebral arch, the highest stress values were recorded at the L2 vertebra, showing 11.8 MPa, 14.0 MPa, 9.4 MPa, and 13.4 MPa for each respective model. Among the metal construct elements, the connecting rods consistently exhibited the highest stress, with values of 226.7 MPa, 313.4 MPa, 212.4 MPa, and 293.98 MPa, respectively.
Conclusion: The results underscore that utilizing cross-links in the stabilization of burst fractures at the thoracolumbar junction, which is only feasible through an open installation, somewhat mitigates stress within the stabilized spinal segment. Meanwhile, the modeling of lateral flexion revealed only minimal differences in stress values between open and minimally invasive installations.

Published: October 2024

Strong athlete identity and satisfaction with being an athlete are linked to better performance. This is because student-athletes are more motivated and feel a sense of belonging. However, research on how these factors connect with details like gender or competition level in student-athletes, especially in Kenya, is lacking. Using an analytical cross-sectional design and the Athletic Identity Measurement Scale-Plus (AIMS-Plus) and Athlete Satisfaction Questionnaire (ASQ), this study examined the relationship between athlete identity and satisfaction among university student-athletes in relation to gender, year of study, and level of competition. A total of 309 (52.4% males and 47.6% females) Kenyan university student-athletes participated in the study. Results revealed females had a slightly stronger athlete identity (4.00 ± 0.478) than male student-athletes (3.93 ± 0.503), but there was no significant correlation between gender and athlete identity. Similarly, females had higher athlete satisfaction (4.24 ± 0.443) than male student-athletes (4.09 ± 0.576), and the relationship between gender and athlete satisfaction was statistically significant (p =.017). Investigated demographic characteristics only explained (3.5%) variance in student-athlete identity (R2 adjusted =.035, F (4, 263) = 3.391, p =.010) and (3.2%) in athlete satisfaction (R2 adjusted =.032, F(4,263) = 3.210, p =.013). The study concluded that universities should provide enhanced training facilities, regular competition opportunities, and a supportive environment for athletes in low-level competitions. Future research could address athlete identity beyond demographics such as coach leadership, education goals, team task contribution, and variables that provide a more comprehensive understanding of athletic identity and satisfaction.

Published: October 2024

Agriculture has experienced many crises in recent years. The need for public authorities to respond was caused not only by the pandemic generated by the SARS-CoV and that disrupted production and supply chains, but also by the increase in the number and scale of natural disasters. The article shows that public authorities have taken measures to support the agricultural sector, ensuring their implementation both in the short term and to reduce their impact on future shocks through introducing temporary bans on export, decreasing (or increasing) tariffs, etc. The article indicates that in most countries, government support measures were aimed at ensuring domestic food supplies and overcoming market disruptions. In the context of the global economy, the policy of supporting agricultural production was characterised by conditions of high energy prices and regular disruptions in value chains in the world trade. Scientific research on the creation of conditions for the development of agriculture reflects various aspects of the topic of climate change mitigation, vulnerability of agriculture to climate change, and adaptation of agricultural and food systems. The article considers the features of the programme-target method in providing support to the agricultural production through the development of public policy measures. The Australian experience in implementing the Smart Farms programme is presented in the context of programme blocks with an analysis of the technologies used; key approaches in organising the selection of the programme participants and the risks of its realisation are highlighted. It is concluded that the implementation of the target programme has made it possible to expand the possibilities of digital transformation in agriculture and ensure the provision of budgetary funds on a competitive basis under openness and transparency of all the stages and procedures.
Methodology for improving the assessment of the economic efficiency of transport infrastructure development
Authors: Macheret D. A. , Razuvaev A. D.
Published: October 2024

Transport infrastructure, especially railway infrastructure, plays a key role in economic development, ensuring efficient movement of goods and people. It is characterised by high capital intensity, long operational lifespans, and generation of socio-economic effects. Therefore, there is a need to improve the methodology for assessing the economic efficiency of creating and developing transport infrastructure objects. The traditional approach to evaluation is based on discounting cash flows. When applying this method, significant capital investments are compared with devalued effects in subsequent years due to discounting, during which the infrastructure object reaches the specified estimated load. Moreover, it does not consider the fact that the transport infrastructure benefits and holds value not only for the current generation but also for the future one. Additionally, it, as an economic good, cannot be seen as a one-timely consumed product: this transportation service cannot be accumulated. For a more accurate and comprehensive assessment of the efficiency, particularly in the case of railway transport, it is proposed to consider the results of long-term operation of the transport infrastructure at full (estimated) load not in the future but in the present (present сontinious). The economic assessment indicators include initially invested and adjusted capital, annual effect, efficiency ratio, and the value of the transport infrastructure object. The research results aim to provide an adequate assessment of project implementation efficiency in the field in question. In the future, the methodology can be enhanced by defining risks of not ensuring normal infrastructure load throughout the entire calculation period as well as by assessing the reduction in profitability or increase in transportation costs.
Correlating Negative Thermal Expansion and Thermal Conductivity in Two-dimensional Carbon-based Materials
Authors: Mondal Soumya , Datta Ayan
Published: October 2024

Negative thermal expansion (NTE) is a fascinating phenomenon where certain materials contract upon heating. The phonon transport properties of two-dimensional carbon-based allotropes are poorly understood in terms of their NTE properties. This work with a specific focus on carbon-based allotropes, explores the underlying mechanisms of the thermal conductivity (TC) and NTE of graphene, haeckelite, pentahexoctite, s-graphene, 6.6.12 and delta Graphynes (Gys). High TC is imperative for efficiently dissipating heat in electronic devices, whereas thermoelectric devices need to be thermally resistive with low TC. Delta-Gy shows highest NTE as well as lowest TC and vice versa is true for graphene. Graphene displays a lower degree of anisotropic TC, while s-graphene exhibits the highest level of anisotropic TC. The behaviour of their TC are understood on the basis of soft-phonon modes, phonon group velocity (vg), phonon lifetime (τ) and mean free path (MFP). The acoustic and optical phonon branches play a key role in determining both TC and NTE of the materials. Out-of-plane buckling of a two-dimensional materials can suppress heat conductivity by increasing the phonon scattering. Buckling is also shown to increase the NTE. A precise control on the pore sizes 5-7 (Haeckelite), 5-6-8 (Pentahexoctite), and 4-8 (s-graphene), 6-12-14 (6.6.12-Gy) and 6-14 (delta-Gy) can make a big impact on their soft unit modes. This investigation not only deepens our understanding of NTE and TC but also highlights the potential of future applications of carbon-based materials with controlled thermal expansion properties in nanotechnology, composites, and beyond.
Merging Hydrogen-Atom-Transfer and the Truce-Smiles Rearrangement for Synthesis of beta-Arylethylamines from Unactivated Allylsulfonamides

Published: October 2024

Arylethylamines are crucial elements in pharmaceutical molecules, making methods for their synthesis highly significant. The Truce-Smiles rearrangement is a well-developed strategy to synthesize arylethylamine motifs via aryl migration. However, most examples require amide substrates to activate the alkene to attack by a radical precursor. This strategy both limits the product scope to amide containing compounds as well as necessitating the incorporation of specific functional groups arising from the initial radical addition. In this work, we overcome these limitations, delivering a hydrogen-atom-transfer from a cobalt catalyst to unactivated alkenes to yield -arylethylamines with simple alkyl chains. DFT studies reveal that increasing the steric hindrance in at least one of the ortho positions on the migrating aromatic group promotes ipso over ortho addition, selectivity that contrasts with previous methods.
Development of ionically crosslinked network in metal oxide based carboxylated acrylonitrile butadiene copolymer with self-healing characteristics
Authors: ROY ADRINEEL
Published: October 2024

Ionic clusters produced during the crosslinking of elastomers with zinc oxide influence the overall mechanical performance of ionic elastomers such as carboxylated nitrile rubber (XNBR). The composition of these ionic aggregates is investigated for the first time in this work by maintaining time as variable and other factors constant. Lower temperature healing properties by formation of ionic crosslink has been observed. Detailed analysis by Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy revealed that interaction between Zn2+ and COO1- actually affects the bonding structures and Universal Testing Machine proved that ionic crosslink shows better healing efficiency than a combination of covalent and ionic crosslink due to sulphur and zinc oxide, for the first time. The inability to heal the rubber compound at all due to the presence of Carbon Black filler was also observed for the first time.

Metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) is now the most common cause of chronic liver disease worldwide, affecting approximately 30% of the U.S. population and one billion people globally. However, MAFLD often goes undiagnosed due to the lack of reliable clinical indicators and effective screening methods. The current gold standard for diagnosing and assessing MAFLD is through invasive liver biopsy, which is impractical for widespread screening or frequent monitoring. MASLD typically manifests as “macrovesicular steatosis,” characterized by a single large fat vacuole (30-50 µm) in each hepatocyte, representing a more benign and indolent form. However, approximately 20% of MASLD cases exhibit hepatocytes with numerous smaller fat vacuoles (1-15 µm), known as “microvesicular steatosis,” which is linked to a higher risk of steatohepatitis and progression to cirrhosis and cancer. Although ultrasound (US) imaging shows promise as a non-invasive method to assess liver fat content, traditional grayscale features are not sensitive enough to detect mild liver fat or small changes over time. Novel quantitative US-liver fat quantification (QUS-LFQ) tools that analyze acoustic attenuation and backscatter are emerging, with several techniques now available on the market. However, the sensitivity of current QUS-LFQ methods to variations in fat vacuole size remains unknown. While imaging phantoms can help validate these quantitative tools, there is currently no phantom model available that can link US measurements to the severity of steatosis. Existing techniques for modifying material properties such as attenuation, backscatter, and speed of sound do not account for the macro-structure of steatosis, where the size and distribution of scatterers (such as lipid vacuoles) likely influence acoustic wave interactions and thus affect quantitative US liver fat quantification (QUS-LFQ). We developed agar-based phantoms to simulate the excessive fat accumulation and presence of lipid droplets seen in steatotic hepatocytes, using stable micron-sized peanut oil droplets as stand-ins for these lipid vacuoles. Oil microparticles in the 5-20 µm and 20-60 µm size ranges were successfully produced and their stability confirmed. Microscopy and US imaging revealed a uniform distribution of phantom constituents, including oil microparticles, throughout the agar. US-LFQ measurements were accurate, with fat content closely matching theoretical values and those obtained by MRI. Spectral CT measurements demonstrated the expected linear decrease in X-ray attenuation as the lipid content in the phantoms increased. Herein we describe our methods for microparticle formulation and validation.

Published: October 2024

We study the influence of the electrical biasing on the modification of the chemical composition and the electrical performance of perovskite solar cells (PSCs) by coupling Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and scanning transmission X-ray microscopy (STXM) techniques. EIS reveals the formation of charge accumulation at the interfaces and changes in resistive and capacitive properties. STXM study on PSCs after applying strong electric field for a long biasing time indicates the break-down of methylammonium (MA+) cation promoting iodide ions to migrate and create defects at the interface. This complementary EIS and STXM study allows to suggest a degradation mechanism that includes the migration of iodide ions that leads to interface defects and subsequent degradation of solar cell performance. In addition, we study the evolution of the performance of PSCs under air. We observe an increased hysteresis index on current-voltage curves and fill factor reduction of the perovskite solar cells with ageing in air. EIS measurements show the formation of a capacitive layer resulting from accumulation of iodide ions through modification of the mobile ion concentration and ion mobility.
Unusual Directionality in Thioamide Hydrogen Bonds Can Stabilize β-Strands
Authors: Zheng Haoliang , Newberry Robert W
Published: October 2024

Though thioamides are considered weaker hydrogen-bond acceptors than oxoamides, recent calculations suggest they might enhance hydrogen bonds within the backbone of individual β-strands. We confirm this prediction through spectroscopic analysis of minimal amino-acid models. Further, incorporation of thioamides into the backbone of β-hairpin models high-lights opportunities to control β-strand stability.

O presente artigo pretende compreender o funcionamento inter-racial no discurso plurivocálico, do conto “Melanctha”, parte do livro Three Lives (1909), de Gertrude Stein. Por meio da análise objetivou-se identificar essas vozes, como representações da negritude e da branquidade e estabelecer os parâmetros que determinam esses relacionamentos. Como resultados finais, identificamos que “Melanctha” subverte o racismo e transforma-o em um mecanismo de opressão transvestido de opiniões emitidas por personagens negros, a partir do desenvolvimento do Cubismo Literário.
Mosaico de moléstias
Authors: Nascimento Daniela Galdino
Published: October 2024

O presente artigo volta-se à restituição de Augusto dos Anjos no cenário dos estudos literários contemporâneos, visto ainda ser lacunar a atenção voltada aos seus escritos. A discussão lança foco sobre a linguagem da obra EU, cuja primeira publicação se deu no ano de 1912 em meio ao contexto de euforia das elites brasileiras com os ideais de progresso. Analisamos como o EU destoou do imaginário em torno da modernidade compulsória própria do entre-séculos XIX e XX, resultando no afastamento da crítica literária à época. Destacamos a importância do mergulho na textualidade augustiana, o que realizamos a partir de análises das representações das moléstias e da morte, esta considerada como tema-chave da existência humana.

Approaching Academic Advising of Undergraduate Students in HDFS Through the Lenses of Identity Development Theories
Authors: Boyd-Soisson Erin F.
Published: October 2024

Many colleges and universities utilize faculty advisors for academic advising. In this model, faculty advise students in their discipline on curriculum requirements, as well as career and academic goals. Faculty often report feeling that they have had little training or support for their role as an academic advisor. Faculty advisors in the field of human development and family science (HDFS), however, are uniquely positioned for academic advising as they are trained experts in many of the known factors associated with effective advising. One area closely related to advising that HDFS faculty are highly knowledgeable about is identity development and exploration. Therefore, HDFS faculty can utilize their in-depth knowledge of Erikson’s, Marcia’s, and Arnett’s theories of development to inform their role as advisors.
A Bioecological Approach to Family and Consumer Science Teacher Preparation
Authors: Graves Nicole A.
Published: October 2024

Family and consumer sciences (FCS) has a rich history dating back to its origins as home economics. The profession has always been rooted in multiple branches of science including chemistry, biology, sociology, and psychology. The Family and Consumer Sciences Body of Knowledge (FCS-BOK) unveiled at the turn of the 21st century helped solidify the theoretical foundation of the profession. The theoretical approaches that anchor and guide the work of current FCS professionals are human ecosystems and life course development. This paper highlights more specifically how an FCS teacher educator utilizes Bronfenbrenner’s bioecological theory to understand the current state of FCS education and design learning experiences for future educators that instill values of theoretical application across careers in secondary classrooms.
Integration of Ideological and Political Education into the Probability Theory and Mathematical Statistics Course: A Teaching Design Based on Estimation and Hypothesis Testing
Authors: Li Guangyu
Published: October 2024

With the rapid development of higher education in China, colleges and universities are facing new challenges and impacts in talent training. Probability Theory and Mathematical Statistics is one of the important courses in higher education for science and engineering majors and economics and management majors. Its critical role in cultivating students’ thinking skills and improving their problem-solving skills is self-evident. Course ideological and political education construction is an important link in college talent training work. Combining ideological and political education with course teaching can help students establish correct value concepts and play a certain role in improving their comprehensive ability and quality. At present, the construction of ideological and political education in the Probability Theory and Mathematical Statistics course still faces some problems, mainly manifested in the lack of attention paid by teachers to course ideological and political education, insufficient exploitation of ideological and political elements, and the simplification of ideological and political education implementation methods. In order to comprehensively deepen the construction of course ideological and political education in line with the actual needs of Probability Theory and Mathematical Statistics course teaching, we should strengthen the construction of teacher teams, improve teachers’ ability to carry out course ideological and political education, integrate educational resources, develop educational resources for ideological and political education, and innovate teaching methods to improve the overall effect of ideological and political education integration.

Published: October 2024

The development objectives of the Chinese government have a guiding effect on the school-running characteristics of private colleges and universities. This paper explores the relationship between the characteristics of private colleges and universities and the development objectives of the provincial government, using Jiangsu Province as a case study. All the schools have the consciousness of fully considering the development objectives of Jiangsu Province when formulating the school-running characteristics. Their characteristics all contain some training methods, training courses, or institutional construction aiming at the development objectives. Most universities can support the government’s objectives on employment and innovation. Only a third of the schools provide government support for science research. Private colleges and universities should make full use of the free and flexible advantages of private education, combine them with the continuous changes of policies and markets, and create clear, scientific, and dynamic school-running characteristics, in order to achieve long-term development.
Effect of weathering on the stability of rock slope at a water intake canal of Simplicio Hydroelectric Power Plant
Authors: Lopes Patrícia , Sayão Alberto , Nunes Anna Laura
Published: October 2024

Rock and joint alteration leads to modifications in their properties, resulting in a reduction of rock mass strength and consequently a decrease in the safety of engineering structures. The alteration process changes the material and alters its geomechanical behavior. This research presents the studies conducted to evaluate the mechanical behavior of rock joints in the gneiss massifs that make up the hydraulic circuit of the Simplicio Hydroelectric Plant due to their alteration. Compilation and analysis of data from previous research were carried out to parameterize the joints at different levels of alteration. Deterministic stability analyses showed that the alteration process of gneiss joints can significantly reduce the slope safety factor by up to half of its initial value. Furthermore, probabilistic analyses revealed an increase in failure probability of approximately 10% among the studied alteration classes. The results underscore the importance of assessing the level of joint alteration in engineering projects.

Published: October 2024

Overfishing causes a significant decline in blue swimming crab (Portunus pelagicus) populations, an essential marine resource for Thailand. This research aimed to identify suitable nursery areas for this species throughout the four distinct monsoon seasons. This is the first comprehensive study of habitat characteristics: water temperature, pH, salinity, dissolved oxygen, marine sediment, seagrass beds, and suitability assessment of nursery areas, using a combined approach of Analytic Hierarchy Process and Geographic Information Systems. Our findings reveal that highly suitable nursery habitats comprise a small percentage of the total study area, varying with the monsoon season: 1.66% in the Northeast Monsoon (NEMS), 1.00% in the NEMS transition (NEMST), 1.11% in the Southwest Monsoon (SWMS), and 1.97% in the SWMS transition (SWMST). These areas are concentrated along the coastlines of Sed Island, Phum Riang, Takrob, Tha Thong, and Donsak. Sed Island was designated as a fishery refuge zone in 2022. The identified nursery areas coincide with existing crab banks, highlighting the model's accuracy. Conversely, unsuitable areas were predominantly in shellfish farming zones and low-salinity estuaries. By identifying suitable nursery grounds for the blue swimming crab, this study offers valuable information that can support Thailand's sustainable management and conservation efforts for this species. Doi: 10.28991/HEF-2024-05-03-01 Full Text: PDF
Evaluating Household Hazardous Waste Generation, Composition, and Health Risks in an Urban Municipality
Authors: Jawjit Siriuma , Narom Nutcha , Thongkaow Pattida
Published: October 2024

This study aimed to assess the generation rate and composition of household hazardous waste (HHW) in Nakhon Si Thammarat Municipality, Thailand. A questionnaire survey was conducted to collect data on HHW generation and disposal practices from households in the municipality. Soil samples were collected and analyzed for heavy metals (cadmium, chromium, mercury, nickel, and lead) and PCBs contamination. The potential health risks from ingestion exposure associated with heavy metals and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) contamination in the soil were evaluated. The result revealed that in 2023, the HHW generation rate was 11.95 kg/household/year, with the highest percentages occurring of electronic waste (17.40%), fluorescent lamps (16.98%), spray cans (12.38%), cleaning products (11.30%), and engine oil and lubricant oil products (9.87%). The majority of residents (92.90%) disposed of hazardous waste and general waste together in public waste containers. However, the health risk assessment indicated that the levels of heavy metals and PCBs in the soil were within the safe acceptable range for residents, with a total lifetime cancer risk from ingestion exposure of less than 1E-06 for both adults and children. The findings highlight the need for improved waste separation practices and the implementation of effective hazardous waste management strategies to minimize potential health risks and environmental impacts. This study serves as a basis for developing targeted interventions and policies to enhance household hazardous waste management in the municipalities and similar urban areas in Thailand. Doi: 10.28991/HEF-2024-05-03-011 Full Text: PDF

Published: October 2024

The aim of the study is to present information about the main findings of a research study on the application of the inquiry-based approach in undergraduate teacher training in the field of technical education. The authors seek the answer to the question ‘To what extent are the graduates of teacher training programs prepared for the application of the inquiry-based approach in technical education?’ For the above purposes, an exploratory qualitative research design was used. A qualitative pedagogical experiment was carried out, which was supported by additional research tools and methods (essays, microteaching, participative observations, an analysis of the research subjects, and reflection). The obtained findings show that, in the process of experiments, it has come to a shift in the participants’ opinions about the application of the inquiry-based approach in technical education. The participating future primary school teachers showed an inclination to using the method of inquiry, and the results suggest that they are sufficiently equipped with competencies for its realization. Since there is a lack of research in the field, the present study provides unique data that can help experts (primarily field didacticians) understand the need for searching for an optimal teaching model that can contribute to increasing the quality of education. Doi: 10.28991/HEF-2024-05-03-09 Full Text: PDF
