Published: January 2022

Background: Aim: To assess efficacy of functional endoscopic sinus surgery in surgical management of ethmoid polyps.Methods:One hundred twelve adult patients age ranged 18- 38 years of either gender with ethmoid polyps underwent FESS under general anesthesia. The extent of surgery was decided based on the findings in pre-operative CT scan of paranasal sinuses. Anterior ethmoidectomy, posterior ethmoidectomy, middle meatus antrostomy and clearance of frontal recess were performed in all the patients. Five functional criteria were evaluated as nasalobstruction , anosmia, rhinorrhea, post nasal drip, head ache and facial pain.Results:Pre- operative nasal obstruction percentage was 3.42 and post- operative ercentage was 2.10, Anosmia percentage was 2.14 and 1.15, Rhinorrhea percentage was 3.56 and 2.08 and ocular problem in 1 and synechia in 4 cases.Conclusions:Functional endoscopic sinus surgery found to be effective in management of ethmoid polyps and hence can be the treatment of choice.
Supply chain design and analysis: An empirical research related Vietnam’s consumer packaged goods (CPG) industry
Authors: Phuoc Van Nguyen  , Nam Tran Dinh
Published: January 2022

This paper intends to empirically establish the supply chain design dimensions that inﬂuence the ability of retailers in Vietnam’s consumer packaged goods (CPG) industry to perform effectively with resilience. It further examines the extent of supply chain design dimensions impacting the variance on resilience in this industry. The study surveyed managers and supervisors of major Vietnam supermarkets within the CPG industry and employed univariate and multivariate methods to analyze the data collected. The paper established that technology advancement, economic inﬂuence, environmental changes, desired supply chain outcomes, and transport networks are the supply chain design dimensions with the most impact on the capability of the retail industry to perform efﬁciently and effectively with resilience. Furthermore, the paper revealed that transport networks, as an integral part of retail industry, impact the most on the variance of resilience for product availability. The ﬁndings imply that, despite the susceptibility to external and internal disruptions, performance and operations with resilience resonate with proper investments in technology, the available capacity under turbulent economic behavior, and a transport network for better customer experience. The paper further acknowledges the disruptive environmental changes, desired supply chain outcomes, and the need for a supply chain design for resilience in the retail industry.
Choosing Startups as Suppliers: A Supplier Selection Archetypes Typology
Authors: Thomas P. Lee
Published: January 2022

Recent research demonstrates the value of examining collaborations between established organizations and startups via the lens of the buyer–supplier relationship. However, enterprises must first find, analyze, and select potential startups as suppliers before they can exploit startups' resources and talents in a buyer–supplier relationship. Due to the fact that earlier research has focused exclusively on how purchasing firms select established firms as suppliers, it is unknown which processes, tools, or organizational approaches purchasing organizations employ when selecting startup firms as suppliers. These suppliers are qualitatively distinct in that they lack organizational structure, financial resources, and operational competencies, offering a substantial risk to purchasing organizations. This inductive, qualitative case study research elicits data from twenty established purchasing firms and examines how they choose startup suppliers. We begin by identifying five design motifs that differentiate purchasing firms' selection procedures. We create a typology of three supplier selection paradigms based on these themes. The findings suggest that enterprises who are ready and able to adjust their selection technique to startups should exhibit a higher level of selection performance, implying a greater likelihood of selecting acceptable startups as suppliers. The findings contribute to the literature on supplier selection and shed light on the burgeoning sector of new venture suppliers.
Northern Norway in Viking age
Authors: Lățug Diana
Published: January 2022

The aim of this paper is to present some aspects of the image of Northern Norway in the Viking period. The article first sketches the Viking Age and its underlying causes, by also defining, in brief, the specificity of the Vikings. It continues with considerations on the creation of Norway, so as to finally outline the country’s image in the Viking Age. Aspects of navigation, language and trade are also presented in short. This entire portrayal of Northern Norway in Viking times is based on Ottar’s account about Northern Norway at the court of King Alfred. From a literary perspective, Harald Hårfagrets Saga (The Saga of Harald Fairhair) from about 850 was analysed. This saga tells the story of a Danish princess being transformed into a Norwegian woman. Thus, one encounters the myth of Northern women. All these aspects lead to a comprehensive image of Northern Norway in the Viking Age.

‘Why Has Yahweh Defeated Us Today before the Philistines?’ The Question of the Ark Narrative
Authors: Stirrup A.
Published: January 2022

This study attempts to use the tools of literary criticism to bring a fresh approach to bear on the impasse which affected earlier studies on the Ark Narrative. Boundaries are established to determine the beginning, middle and end of the narrative and then an attempt is made to read that story. What emerges is a narrative which is concerned to explain, from start to finish, why the Israelites were defeated by a Philistine army, and an attempt to bring a challenge to the nation to respond appropriately to its holy God.
Review article: The use of Rabbinic sources in Gospel studies
Authors: Instone-Brewer David
Published: January 2022

New Testament scholars tend to avoid rabbinic sources because of the problem of dating. This is a genuine problem, but it is not insurmountable. The work of Neusner and others has highlighted this problem but it has also indicated some ways to deal with it. This review article looks at three recent books which demonstrate the usefulness of rabbinic background for studying the Gospels. All three have dealt with the problem of dating, with varying success. Brad Young has produced a useful book on the Parables, though he tends to compare them with the theology of post-Temple Judaism. Roger Aus’ studies sometimes suffer from parallelomania, though his investigation of the woman caught in adultery is masterful. Maurice Casey’s search for the Aramaic behind Mark leads him into creative and sometimes compelling arguments based on rabbinic texts. All three clearly believe that they can identify early rabbinic material and deal with it critically, and on the whole they appear to have succeeded. They have employed traditional scholarship, historical criticism and literary criticism. New Testament scholarship would greatly benefit from the additional use of redaction criticism of rabbinic material, as developed by Neusner and others.
Syncretism –The Term and Phenomenon
Authors: Levinskaya Irina A.
Published: January 2022

In this article the history of the use of the term syncretism is traced. It shows that apart from being used etymologically incorrectly it has acquired vague meanings. Thanks to its universal potential it became an expression for every kind of religious or even cultural contact. Being used to describe different religious phenomena it creates an illusion of correlation, each of them with the rise of a mixed religion. This pattern of thought was especially popular among scholars of the nineteenth century. It still affects the modern investigations of the Mediterranean religious situation of the Hellenistic and Roman periods as the epigraphic example demonstrates.
Blockchain as a determinant of bitcoin value
Authors: Włodarczyk Robert W.
Published: January 2022

The article discusses the determinants of the bitcoin (BTC) price value, with particular emphasis on blockchain technology. The method of critical analysis of the literature on the subject was applied, and the state of knowledge in this field was established by juxtaposing different views of researchers on the BTC price value. It has been proven that BTC, being unquestionably a financial innovation, has been subjected to a free valuation of its price in the markets. While observing the development of BTC quotations, potential causes of numerous fluctuations in its market valuation were searched for.               The article shows that the expectations related to the use of BTC are relatively highly valued by investors in modern financial markets. A more efficient currency, competition between currencies or the provision of new technological solutions may bring benefits to markets and economies, which, discounted at the present time, generate a certain value. Therefore, the paper shows that the BTC value creation mechanism is therefore different from that of fiat currencies. It has also been confirmed that the promotion of one of the most popular distributed data registers, which is blockchain, is of great value for BTC. BTC has led to the development of blockchain technology that is used in various segments of the economy.               Basing BTC's operation on a public data register is the strength of the entire BTC network, but it also brings many risks and uncertainties. Further, research should focus on searching for the economic effects that result from the development of blockchain technology in modern economies.
Revolving Door Paradox of Textile Industry in Ethiopia: Quantitative analyses of High Labor Turnover
Authors: Tadesse Lelisse
Published: January 2022

The study aims to assess the determinants of employees’ turnover in the Ethiopian textile industry. To assess the determinants of the problem, a sample of four companies were included in the study from four different Regional States (Tigray, Amhara, Oromia, and SNNPR). The principal sources of the data were employees, key informants, and employers in the textile manufacturing enterprise. A structured questionnaire with CSpro software was used to gather the information. A Probit Econometric Regression analysis was applied to analyze the data and draw a conclusion. The findings of the study revealed that workers’ dissatisfaction with their job, work environment, and salary dissatisfaction have a significant and positive relationship to their intention to leave the companies. However, as expected, supervisors’ good relationship with the workers has a significant effect to reduce the probability of the worker’s intention to leave the company. Compared to males, female workers are more likely to intend to leave. This could be associated with inconvenient work schedule and works stress. The result of the analysis also shows that the larger the family sizes, the less likely are the workers intend to leave their company which could be associated to fear of risk against the family livelihood.

KASTEN YARALAMA SONUCU YÜZDE SABİT İZE NEDEN OLMA (TCK m.87/1-C)
Authors: KAYMAZ Seydi
Published: January 2022

İnsanların karşı karşıya geldiklerinde ilk göze çarpan vücut bölgesi “yüz” bölgesidir. “Yüz”, kişiler üzerinde olumlu veya olumsuz etkilere neden olur. Yüzdeki değişimler ve yaralanma sonucu oluşan izler, kişilerin psikolojisini, sosyal ve ekonomik hayatını olumsuz etkiler. O nedenle, kanun koyucu kasten yaralama sonucu yüzde sabit ize neden olunmasını neticesi sebebiyle ağırlaşan yaralama olarak kabul etmiştir (TCK m.87/1-c). Ancak yüzdeki bir izin TCK’nın 87/1-c maddesi anlamında sabit iz niteliğinde olup olmadığına ilişkin tespit büyük ölçüde sübjektif değerlendirmelere dayanmaktadır. Bu da, kanunun uygulanmasında belirsizliğe, kanunun benzer olaylar bakımından farklı şekilde uygulanmasına neden olmaktadır. Bu yönüyle TCK’nın 87/1-c maddesindeki düzenleme, kanunilik ilkesinin sonuçlarından olan belirlilik ilkesine aykırı olup, kanımızca TCK’nın 87/1-c maddesi kanundan çıkarılmalıdır. Bu maddenin korunmasının tercih edilmesi halinde ise, nesnel kriterlere dayalı olarak yüzde sabit izin tespiti yoluna gidilmelidir.

BANKACILIK ZİMMETİ SUÇU
Authors: ATAY Onuralp
Published: January 2022

Bankacılık zimmeti suçu 19/10/2005 tarih ve 5411 sayılı Bankacılık Kanunu’nun 160. maddesinde düzenlenmektedir. Bankacılık zimmeti suçunun faili ancak banka yönetim kurulu, başkan ve üyeleri ile diğer mensupları olabilir. Bankacılık işlemlerinin mülkiyet hakkına yönelik olması sebebiyle bankacılık zimmeti suçunun işlenmesiyle mülkiyet hakkının ihlâl edildiğini ve korunan hukuki değerin mülkiyet hakkı olduğunu belirtmek mümkündür. Ceza hukukuna göre suçun faili yalnızca gerçek kişi olabilir. Bu sebeple bankacılık zimmet suçunun faili de ancak gerçek kişi olabilecektir. Suçun konusu ise para veya para yerine geçen evrak veya senetleri veya diğer mallardır. Bankacılık Kanunu’nun 160/1 ve 160/3. maddelerinde iki ayrı suç düzenlenmektedir. İlk fıkrada fiil, failin görevi nedeniyle zilyetliği kendisine devredilmiş olan veya koruma ve gözetimiyle yükümlü olduğu malı zimmete geçirmektedir. Üçüncü fıkradaki fiil ise faaliyet izni kaldırılan veya Fon’a devredilen bir bankanın; hukuken veya fiilen yönetim ve denetimini elinde bulundurmuş olan gerçek kişi ortaklarının, kredi kuruluşunun kaynaklarını, kredi kuruluşunun emin bir şekilde çalışmasını tehlikeye düşürecek şekilde doğrudan veya dolaylı olarak kendilerinin veya başkalarının menfaatlerine kullandırmak olarak tanımlanmıştır.
The Effect of Salary Compensation for Time Spent Teaching in an Orthopaedic Residency Program: An Analysis of Teaching Performance Reviews
Authors: Grandizio Louis C. , Warnick Eugene P. , Gehrman Max D. , Klena Joel C.
Published: January 2022

Introduction:

Although there has been a recent emphasis on standardized resident assessments within Accrediation Council for Graduate Medical Education programs, assessments of faculty teaching performance and effectiveness are less frequent. Our purpose was to compare the teaching performance of orthopaedic surgery faculty receiving compensation for time spent teaching with faculty without compensation.

Methods:

For this prospective investigation, we collected anonymous resident reviews of 23 orthopaedic faculty within a rural, academic orthopaedic residency program over 2 academic years. Performance reviews of the faculty used a validated assessment of clinical teaching effectiveness with nine domains (faculty knowledge, organization, enthusiasm, rapport, involvement in learning experiences, feedback, clinical skill, accessibility, and overall effectiveness). A composite teaching effectiveness score was determined by adding each of the scores from the individual domains. We compared reviews for faculty members with and without compensation for time spent teaching.

Results:

A total of 202 performance reviews for 23 orthopaedic faculty were analyzed. Most of the faculty were male (91%), and 61% received compensation for teaching. No demographic differences were observed between the two faculty groups. Notable differences between the groups were noted in three domains: enthusiasm, ability to establish rapport as well as direction, and feedback. Faculty compensated for teaching demonstrated a markedly higher composite teaching effectiveness score than those without compensation.

Discussion:

These data suggest that orthopaedic faculty compensated for teaching responsibilities provide a better educational experience for resident trainees compared with faculty without compensation for teaching. Future studies should aim to assess varying compensation models for teaching responsibilities across different departments.

Published: January 2022

A two-year field experiment was initiated in 2017-18 and 2018-19 years simultaneously to assess temperature on flower morphogenesis stages, flower sex ratio (hermaphrodite/staminate male flower) and fruit set in monoembryonic Langra and Amrapali varieties. Different dates of flower phenological stages viz., bud, panicle, bloom and flower initiation, pea, marble, egg, and maturity of fruits were recorded. The Langra variety exhibited bud initiation after mid December whereas Amrapali variety by the end of December. The range of mean maximum / minimum temperature as 26-31/10-12 °C promoted hermaphrodite flowers per panicle by 74 per cent in Langra variety, whereas range of 27-29/11-13 °C favored by 35 per cent in Amrapali variety. A positive and significant correlation between total number of flower / panicle and flower sex ratio in both the varieties suggested that higher temperature during initial flower phenologies improved number of hermaphrodite flowers. A mean minimum temperature for producing more number of hermaphrodite flower  exhibited a range of 11-14 °C under central Indian conditions.  Fruit set was maximum during pea stage and decline afterwards in marble and fruit maturity stages due to sudden rise in temperature at marble stage that caused in drop down of humidity thereby resulted in fruit drop in both the varieties.

Published: January 2022

The long-term air temperature data series from 1971-2019 was analyzed and used for forecasting mean monthly air temperature at the district level. The Augmented Dickey-Fuller test, Kwiatkowski-Phillips-Schmidt-Shin test, and Mann-Kendall test were employed to test the stationarity and trend of the time series. The mean monthly maximum air temperature did not show any significant variation while an increasing trend of 0.04°C per annum was observed in mean monthly minimum air temperature, which was detrended. Box-Jenkins autoregressive integrated moving–averages were used to forecast the forthcoming 5 years (2020-2024) air temperature in the district Jalandhar of Punjab. The goodness of fit was tested against residuals, the autocorrelation function, and the histogram. The fitted model was able to capture dynamics of the time series data and produce a sensible forecast.

Authors: SARABJOT KAUR SANDHU  , ANURAG ATTRI  , RITU BALA
Published: January 2022

To quantify the effect of meteorological parameters on incidence of Karnal bunt in wheat crop, an investigation was done using 9 to 12 season’s data of Bathinda and Ludhiana stations of Punjab. Maximum temperature during March in range of 25-31oC, minimum temperature of February (8.5-11.0oC), morning and evening relative humidity of March in range of 85-95 and 40-60 per cent respectively, rainfall more than 25 mm with sunshine hours 5.5-9.0 hrs/day during mid February to mid March favour Karnal bunt in wheat crop. Maximum temperature of March showed significant negative correlation with incidence of Karnal bunt whereas minimum temperature of February showed significant positive correlation with disease incidence at both locations. Morning and evening relative humidity showed significant positive correlation with disease incidence. Rain amount and rainy days during mid February to mid March significantly influenced disease incidence. Sunshine hours had negative correlation with disease incidence. Backward multiple linear regression (BMLR) analysis indicated maximum temperature, rainfall and sunshine hours play significant role in Karnal bunt incidence at Ludhiana. However, at Bathinda, maximum temperature, evening time relative humidity, rain amount and rainy days played significant role.
Extreme learning machines for weather-based modelling of silk cocoon production
Authors: PANDIT PRAMIT , BAKSHI BISHVAJIT , M. SHILPA
Published: January 2022

In spite of the immense popularity and sheer power of the neural network models, their application in sericulture is still very much limited. With this backdrop, this study evaluates the suitability of neural network models in comparison with the linear regression models in predicting silk cocoon production of the selected six districts (Kolar, Chikballapur, Ramanagara, Chamarajanagar, Mandya and Mysuru) of Karnataka by utilising weather variables for ten consecutive years (2009-2018). As the weather variables are found to be correlated, principal components are obtained and fed into the linear (principal component regression) and non-linear models (back propagation-artificial neural network and extreme learning machine) as inputs. Outcomes emanated from this experiment have revealed the clear advantages of employing extreme learning machines (ELMs) for weather-based modelling of silk cocoon production. Application of ELM would be particularly useful, when the relation between production and its attributing characters is complex and non-linear.

Dung môi đóng vai trò rất quan trọng trong việc trích li các hợp chất tự nhiên bởi dung môi ảnh hưởng lớn đến thành phần của dịch chiết. Nghiên cứu này nhằm so sánh sự khác nhau về thành phần các hoạt chất nhóm iridoid trong các dịch chiết nước và ethanol của rễ củ địa hoàng (Rehmannia glutinosa Libosch.) bằng phương pháp sắc kí lỏng hiệu năng cao (UHPLC) và sắc kí lỏng ghép khối phổ (LC-MSD-Trap-SL). Theo các số liệu của LC-MSD-Trap-SL, Jioglutoside B, Leonuride và Jioglutin E là những iridoid phân biệt sự khác nhau giữa hai dịch chiết. Trong khi đó, phân tích UHPLC cũng chứng minh rằng hàm lượng catalpol, 8-epiloganic axit và glutinoside trong dịch chiết nước cao hơn nhiều so với của dịch chiết ethanol (lớn hơn lần lượt là 126; 4,46 và 11,14 lần). Vì vậy, nghiên cứu này đề xuất sử dụng nước để chiết các hoạt chất iriodid có hoạt tính sinh học cao từ rễ củ địa hoàng, trong đó có catalpol, một iridoic glycoside nổi trội trong rễ củ địa hoàng.

Revitalising Indian Agriculture and New Farm Laws: Challenges and Opportunities Ahead
Authors: HEBBAR AMOGH , PARAKH SHREYANS
Published: January 2022

This essay begins with a brief introduction of the infamous farm laws and briefly explains its various provisions. The advantages of the legislation, which the media has failed to highlight time and again, are then explored. Consequently, the evident flaws in the legislation and how it directly benefits the private sector and causes harm to the farmers, whom the bill is intended to benefit. Therefore, an understanding of both the sides of the coin are provided and it is up to the reader to ascertain the efficacy of the bills. The infamous protests orchestrated by the farmers against the legislations are also briefly touched on. Whether they are right or wrong, a procedural history of the passage of the legislations has been given to highlight the hasty and uncoordinated manner by which they were passed. The role of non-state actors and the media towards the protests must be assessed. Lastly, it would be prudent to examine the moments wherein the protestors crossed the line and chose anarchy. The paper concludes by offering a few solutions to the dilemma at hand.
Tribal Property Rights: A Legal Analysis
Authors: Agarwal Garima , Singhvi Kajal
Published: January 2022

In our country, the property rights of tribals are in extreme jeopardy. Despite various legislations and laws that ensure that property rights to the tribals are not denied, the situation is dire. There is also a massive power imbalance; the tribes have no power against the states and are always the victims. A constitutional provision like the Fifth Schedule is highly outdated and centralizes the decision-making rights of tribals. The PESA Act established to ensure that tribals are more involved in decision-making has been manipulated and not appropriately implemented. The LARR Act and the FRA Act, dealing with land acquisition laws and tribal property rights, respectively, have successfully been diluted by the states as well the central government.
Corporate Social Responsibility: Is the CSR Law Serving the Purpose it Should Be?
Authors: AGARWAL GARIMA
Published: January 2022

Corporate Social Responsibility (hereinafter “CSR”) had emerged as a means to hold companies and organisations accountable for the impact of their actions and operations on society. The idea behind CSR is that Business Organisations generate profits by utilising the community and environmental resources by way of labour and raw material, and so must return at least some part to society by way of quality products, employment generation, and so on. CSR has come a long way from being merely a concept of philanthropy to a mandatory law in India. The paper is an analysis of whether the CSR law has been able to serve the purpose for which it was enacted. It seeks to look into whether or not CSR should have been made mandatory at all. This paper questions the need for a CSR law in India or if it instead works as a mechanism agenda for the government to shift its responsibilities (towards the community) to the corporate sector.
The Maniac as the Apocryphal Intervento: How Form Determines Substance in Fo’s Accidental Death of an Anarchist
Authors: ALLA AISHWARYA
Published: January 2022

The Accidental Death of an Anarchist (1970) is one of famed Italian play-wright Dario Fo, written as a response the neo-fascist tension that reached a boiling point in during the ‘Hot Autumn.’ A period of immense turmoil in late 20th -cemtury Italy. The play draws from the conventions of the Brechtian form and commedia dell’arte, aptly transforming them into mechanisms that can help both the play and spectators subvert the high cultures of Gramscian cultural hegemony, absorbed into ADA’s comic microcosm. This essay explores how political and theatrical realms are immortalised and then pit against each other through the course of the play, with the character of the Maniac acting as a rhetorical device acting as the connection between the two. In essence, this paper believes that Style is considered over substance in many of the styles of theatre Accidental Death operates within; the stylistic elements that quantitatively constitute the Brechtian form, commedia dell’arte, and farce allow them to subvert the ‘high cultures’ that are held culpable in Gramscian cultural hegemony, all of which ADA absorbs into its comic microcosm. This leads to a sustained paradox between the political and theatrical dimensions of the play, where the theatrical lends credence to the political though the use of fictional formal elements.
Religiosity and Subjective Well-Being among Older Adults: A Systematic Review
Authors: Ul Hassan Sumara Masood
Published: January 2022

Purpose: Religiosity acts as a protective agent against the trajectories of ill-being in the later stage of life. The current systematic review aimed to identify and critically evaluate available literature regarding the association between religiosity and subjective well-being. Methodology: Studies were sourced from Google Scholar, Science Direct and Pubmed, published between 2011 and 2017. The eligibility criteria for the selected articles was: subjective well-being as an outcome variable, participants aged 60 and above, studies having cross-sectional/comparative, cohort/longitudinal, qualitative, or quantitative research designs, and published in the English language. Findings: After the screening and quality assessment through STROBE and SIGN checklists, a synthesis of 7 out of 77 articles were accumulated. Equivocal patterns of association were observed between religiosity and subjective well-being. It was also found that different dimensions of religiosity exerted positive and negative influences on the subjective well-being of the older adults. Implications: Therefore, focus on the empirical connections between religiosity and subjective well-being will enhance professionals’ knowledge regarding the literature gaps and underlying pathways. It also provides the direction for future studies.
Identifying and Overcoming Cognitive Fixation in Pastoral Decision-Making
Authors: Ramos Hector , Juntune Joyce
Published: January 2022

This qualitative study examined cognitive fixation in protestant pastoral decision-making. The participants included ten Protestant pastors from different churches in central Texas. Pastors chosen for this study led congregations consisting of a minimum of 50 members and a maximum of 1800 members, and had served in a full-time pastoral position for at least five years and not more than 28 years. Through naturalistic inquiry, data were obtained from face-to-face interviews and observations. A constant comparative method and thematic analysis were used to analyze the data for emergent themes. Three themes emerged: 1) cognitive fixation in pastoral decision-making involves more areas than just the pastor, and is heavily influenced by the concepts of clergy and laity, 2) cognitive fixation plays a role in how pastors perceive challenges and 3) special circumstances may have helped many pastors overcome cognitive fixation. The data revealed the complexity of cognitive fixation in pastoral decision-making. It was seen to take place in interactions amongst pastors, church structures and traditions, lay leaders and congregations. Cognitive fixation that happens at the leader or congregational level has an effect on pastoral decision making.
Exploring the Role of Artificial Intelligence in Cognition Through the Mechanism of Morphological Computation
Authors: Rao Sanchia Petrina , Padikkal Tejaswini
Published: January 2022

Our brain is endlessly able to process, perceive, remember and organize information. These processes are involved in our cognition and intelligence forming the basis of our ability to think and carry out activities. Artificial Intelligence refers to the simulation of intelligence in machines that are programmed to think and carry out activities. The concept of Cognition and AI have long before been imagined and embodied by various Greek Philosophers, but lately studies have had many breakthroughs. Using the Cognitivist approach along with its biological processes to computation simulations provided a refined understanding of intelligent behaviour in natural and artificial systems. This proved that efficient AI solutions were inspired by human processes and heuristics. Traditionally, in robotics, artificial intelligence, and neuroscience, there has been a focus on the study of the control or the neural system itself. Recently, there has been an increasing interest in the aspect of ‘embodiment’ not only in robotics and artificial intelligence but also in neurosciences, psychology, and philosophy. Computation about embodiment is a key aspect in creating a more efficient and accurate functioning to that of living organisms.

Authors: Sami A.H. , Ijaz A.
Published: January 2022

Current study was aimed to assess the relationship between emotion regulation (effortful control) and peer attachment among adolescents. Translated version of Early Adolescents Temperament Questionnaire – Revised originally developed by Ellis & Rothbart (2001) and Inventory of Peer Attachment (Greenberg & Armsden, 1987) was used to measure emotion regulation (effortful control) and peer attachment respectively. Sample consisted of 100 participants (age range= 12-16 years) from government and private schools of Rawalpindi and Islamabad. Techniques used for sampling were purposive- convenient as adolescents willing to participate were included in the study. Psychometric properties of EATQ-R and IPA-R were analyzed. Alpha reliabilities for both scales were found to be satisfactory. Participants scored low on emotion regulation and peer attachment; therefore, negatively skewed data was generated. It was also found that emotion regulation (effortful control) and peer attachment have significant negative relationship with each other. Moreover, demographic variables were found to be associated with emotion regulation (effortful control) and peer attachment among adolescents in Pakistan.
