Mapeamento de pesquisas brasileiras que investigam a utilização da Metodologia Ativa Trabalho em Grupo abordando conceitos matemáticos
Authors: Frade Iara Maria Soares de Assis , Tinti Douglas da Silva
Published: July 2024

Apresenta-se um mapeamento de pesquisas brasileiras que investigam a utilização da Metodologia Ativa Trabalho em Grupo na Educação Matemática. O mapeamento foi realizado a partir do levantamento de dissertações e tese que abordaram o assunto. Para sintetizar e analisar estudos existentes sobre o tema, foram aplicados critérios de inclusão e exclusão para selecionar os estudos relevantes, como a presença de palavras-chave específicas e o foco na educação matemática com a utilização da metodologia ativa "Trabalho em Grupo". Após a seleção dos estudos, foram realizadas leituras e análises detalhadas dos artigos selecionados, identificando objetivos, metodologias, resultados e conclusões das pesquisas. A análise permitiu evidenciar que, embora as pesquisas abordem o trabalho em grupo, nelas não se indica como, de fato, ele pode ser desenvolvido no contexto escolar. Além disso, evidenciou-se que, muitas vezes, os termos “aprendizagem cooperativa”, “aprendizagem baseadas em equipes” e “trabalho em grupo” são utilizados como sinônimos, mas, na verdade, não o são.

Problems in Fulfilling the Rights of Crime Victims Due to Misconceptions of Restitution Terminology
Authors: Mahmud Mulyadi  , Rafiqoh Lubis  , Rosmalinda  , Rangkuti Liza Hafidzah Yusuf
Published: July 2024

Restitution rights are problematic in fulfilling the rights of victims of crime, mainly due to misconceptions about restitution terminology. This research aims to explore and analyze the misconceptions of restitution terminology by the society and its impact on the fulfillment of the rights of victims of crime using the analysis of Social Construction Theory. This research uses an empirical juridical approach by utilizing primary data in the form questionnaires distributed to community service participants and the focused discussion process in Community Service activities and secondary data in the form of primary, secondary and tertiary legal materials. The findings of this study indicate that the misconception of restitution terminology is formed through the social construction of legal norms on the wrong meaning of restitution terminology These misconceptions take the form of restitution being understood as peace, restitution is the same as compensation and restitution results in the elimination of imprisonment for the perpetrator. These misconceptions have implications for the non-fulfillment of the rights of victims of crime, which will arrise in the difficulty in submitting requests for restitution, the victim's perception of justice is reduced and a negative impact on the victim's recovery process. This misconception will also lead to weak law enforcement against criminal offenders.

Wood Architecture Prize: gli approcci progettuali e i modelli di sviluppo territoriale analizzati attraverso i premi sulle costruzioni in legno
Authors: Callegari Guido
Published: July 2024

The increasing international proliferation of wooden constructions is a recent phenomenon that originated and was nurtured in Alpine regions, thanks to a gradual process of technological innovation developed over the last two decades through experimental architecture using new, engineered components. The result of this upsurge has been an unprecedented positive development trajectory for this sector in constant growth thanks to strategies of decarbonisation and the spread of bio-based construction materials as key drivers for Net Zero Carbon Buildings (NZCB), Climate-Neutral Buildings.
Today this change in the “status” of wooden constructions is most clearly represented outside of Alpine regions, in urban landscapes where wooden superstructures, like multifunctional walls for energy retrofitting, new schools, university residential halls, hotels, and commercial buildings abound.
In recent years, this evolution has been accompanied by a debate on the available approaches and models, which are reflected in the numerous European competitions and awards dedicated to wooden architecture, with the aim of promoting an understanding of the strategies and practices implemented in public and private projects. The Wood Architecture Prize, the first Italian award in the industry, promoted by Fiera Bolzano, Politecnico di Torino and IUAV Venezia, is a prime example of this advance. Around 150 architectural projects were submitted for consideration, prevalently by the new generation of professionals who are increasingly aware of the environmental and local sensibilities of architectural methods.
Edifici in legno e digitalizzazione. Un dialogo costruttivo
Authors: Maria Giachino Davide , Piva Franco
Published: July 2024

The architect Davide Maria Giachino, head of STUDIO ELEMENT, and engineer Franco Piva, head of Ergodomus, work in low environmental impact architecture and structural wood engineering respectively, exporting their projects to various parts of the world. A recent joint experience at a construction site involving the renovation of structures built with engineered wood led the two professionals to discuss how approaches to design have changed today due to digitalization. The global network that connects the planet allows them to work from a country at the foot of the Alps, where Pergine Valsugana, the headquarters of Ergodomus, is located, and operate around the world, with time zones being the only remaining obstacle. This creates a dichotomy between ultra-specialised micro-studios located in sensitive contexts like Alpine valleys that are locally competitive, engaging with short supply chains in a regional context, and medium to large firms that operate on a global scale. Additionally, new realities emerge from specialised studios aimed at rendering design and construction processes entirely digital and oriented towards off-site, delocalised architecture. However, there are still various obstacles to overcome before this local-to-global approach can be considered mature because, paradoxically, the less technologically advanced approach currently sets the pace, forcing others to slow down and adapt.
Valorisation and regeneration in the western Italian Alps
Authors: Dallere Cristian
Published: July 2024

This review of projects, selected from the provinces of Turin and Cuneo, represents some interesting examples of wooden buildings that often interact with pre-existing structures. In this sense, the use of wooden construction systems demonstrates the remarkable flexibility of this material in relating to existing buildings. Different approaches emerge: in the case of the former Casermette of Moncenisio, there are new buildings inserted within the pre-existing structure, while in the subsequent examples, the new intervention operates through an adjacency to the existing buildings. These projects are part of operations aimed at enhancing local wood, virtuously integrating into regenerative processes of the territory.
Technology and architectural expression in France and Slovenia
Authors: Dallere Cristian
Published: July 2024

The selected projects in French and Slovenian territory represent the high degree of experimentation that manifests in these regions in the field of wooden construction. Starting with a redevelopment operation of a public space in Isère, the review moves on to two school buildings that are very different in terms of composition and scale of intervention; additionally, an interesting office building was selected, followed by a residence that explicitly expresses the design and construction potential of cross-laminated timber. The review concludes with a school building in Slovenian territory that features an interesting wooden structure, which determines one of the compositional principles of the entire project.
Was kennzeichnet einen Holzbau?
Authors: Sauter Marion
Published: July 2024

The new online encyclopaedia www.holzbaukultur.ch from the Bern University of Applied Sciences presents Swiss timber buildings across six centuries and shows lineages of development. The wide range of examples initiates a debate about the characteristics of timber buildings. Switzerland is generally associated with craftsmanship and traditional timber buildings in the Alpine region. The attempt to develop timber architecture in the spirit of modernism in the 20th century was not very successful. The proportion of timber in total building volume decreased significantly. In recent decades, Swiss timber construction, which is now highly technologised, has repositioned itself, and architecture and structural planning have come closer together and realised remarkable, pioneering projects. Timber construction is now the subject of urban spaces and must find new forms accordingly. The approaches to these new forms have so far been very different. Answering the question “What characterises timber construction?” therefore appears to be a key to the visibility and success of a forward-looking Swiss timber construction culture.
Las construcciones perifrásticas como recurso estilístico en el español de Guinea Ecuatorial:  un estudio con base en la obra literaria de Juan Tomás Ávila Laurel
Authors: Nguendjo Issacar
Published: July 2024

La lengua española en África en general y su caracterización constituye lo esencial de nuestras preocupaciones. El presente artículo pretende demostrar a base de un corpus literario que uno de los rasgos pertinentes del español ecuatoguineano son las construcciones perifrásticas como recurso estilístico, para suplir unas limitaciones tanto cualitativa como cuantitativa al nivel léxico. Partimos, por inducción, de tres novelas del autor guineano Juan Tomás Ávila Laurel para extender nuestras conclusiones a una gran mayoría de ecuatoguineanos que hemos observado tanto en Guinea como en España. El gusto por los circunloquios y las perífrasis parece delatar una situación de hibridismo cultural y de heterolinguismo por una parte; y una inseguridad léxica por otra. El resultado es apreciable en un centenar de ilustraciones que hemos catalogado con criterios estilísticos y gramaticales.

Choice of machine learning models for predicting the development of psychological disorders in people with hypothireosis and hyperthireosis
Authors: Huliiev Nural
Published: July 2024

The subject of this article is endocrinological diseases, namely, the analysis of complications in people with hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism. It is known that these diseases occur asymptomatically or in a way that may indicate other possible diseases, so people do not suspect what exactly they are suffering from. Later, the diseases develop to the point where complications occur in the body, some of the most dangerous of which are psychological disorders: depression, mania, aggression, etc. Therefore, the aim of this work is to develop methods for predicting the occurrence of neurological deterioration in people who have already been diagnosed with endocrinological diseases. The article solves the problem of choosing the best models for predicting the occurrence of psychological disorders in people with endocrinological problems. Machine learning methods that are widespread in the medical field were analyzed and one of them was chosen that more optimally solves all the tasks of the task. The selection of criteria took into account potential problems with medical and psychological data. The method used was linear additive convolution, which is used to select the best alternatives according to the results, with the Pareto principle, which aims to exclude less suitable alternatives because all the features have lower values than in other options. For the experiment, all features were converted into quantitative ones to calculate convolution values. The evaluation criteria are given in the paper. The following results were obtained: the forecasting model in further study of this problem will be a random forest. Conclusions: the forecasting methods were studied and a more optimal model was chosen using linear additive convolution, namely, the random forest algorithm, its advantages and disadvantages were considered. A more detailed analysis of its development will be presented in the following articles. A mathematical description of the chosen forecasting method is provided, which includes potential ways of implementation and steps for building an algorithm for one of these methods.

Authors: Nevliudov Ihor , Strilets Roman , Blyzniuk Danylo
Published: July 2024

The subject of the research in the article is the analysis of the influence of technological parameters of photopolymer printing on the appearance of defects in the printing process. Test models for analysis are used, which contain elements that are affected by changes in technological parameters. The purpose of the work is to determine the dependence between the technological parameters of photopolymer printing and the defects that arise because of printing using models for testing. The article addresses the following tasks: analysis of existing test models and determination of model elements and the influence of technological parameters on them. The methods used for the research are mathematical analysis in the form of univariate linear regression and the empirical method. This method consists in comparing and measuring the difference between individual test samples to obtain values that will later be used in regression analysis. The following results were obtained: the dependence of technological factors and their influence on the elements of the test model was determined, which consists in changing the physical dimensions of the test models. With insufficient exposure time, the dimensions of the model are reduced, and defects are created. When the exposure time increases, the dimensions of the model increase linearly, defects appear in the form of holes disappearing or their sizes changing. Conclusions: because of an experimental study, which consists in printing test models and their analysis with the help of linear one-factor regression, the dependence between the exposure time and the physical dimensions of the model was determined and confirmed. Then a method of studying the correspondence of dimensions depending on the exposure time using test models was proposed and mathematical modeling in the form of regression univariate analysis. In the following, it is proposed to determine the influence of the layer height on the exposure time. Further, it is proposed to determine the significance of individual technological factors among themselves and their influence on the defects obtained because of printing. Building a regression analysis model, determining the correlation of technological parameters and their influence on quality indicators. Determination of the coefficient of determination of the constructed model.
contribución de los humanistas en la formación médica: Marañón, Ortega y Unamuno (Parte II)
Authors: González Blasco Pablo
Published: July 2024

En esta segunda parte, el autor reflexiona a la luz de los Humanistas (Marañón, Ortega y Unamuno) para esbozar las virtudes que el médico debe tratar de adquirir para construirse como profesional y esculpir la imagen del médico bien formado, del humanista, del artista científico. Así, se aborda el tema de la formación cultural, la prudencia y el sentido común, la sobriedad, sencillez y solidaridad. La necesidad de comprender al otro, escucharle, así como la dedicación, que se traduce en trabajo abnegado, configuran la conciencia de misión. Parte integrante de la construcción de la personalidad es la forja del carácter, el entusiasmo que se demuestra en la convicción profesional, así como la exigencia ética, el deber que libremente nos imponemos. En la parte final, se aborda el papel de la Academia en la Formación Médica a la luz de una conferencia de Ortega hace 100 años: ¿Cuál es la misión de la Universidad? ¿Cuál debería ser la esencia de la educación que allí se ofrece? La misión de la Universidad es formar profesionales capaces de sobrevivir en el mundo, y corresponder a la responsabilidad que de ellos se espera. Por tanto, es necesario pensar en dónde y cómo invertir el tiempo disponible, para enseñar lo que un médico no puede dejar de saber. En definitiva, un problema de gestión racional de los recursos para aprovechar el escaso tiempo de que se dispone para formar un médico en la Universidad.

Revealing the Ideology of Documentary Film Dirty Vote: Critical Discourse Analysis with Transitivity Perspective
Authors: Wulansari Atsani , Mazid Sukron
Published: July 2024

The Dirty Vote documentary movie attempted to depict the ambiance of Indonesia’s general election. Movies inherently reflect the viewpoints and ideology of particular groups; therefore, it led us to research the film further by using Critical Discourse Analysis. Film as one of the discourses has its linguistics characteristic which brings the ideological orientations. This research aims to reveal the ideology of Dirty Vote from transitivity perspective. Transitivity is the ideational function that can show what happens in a text as it is related to a series of context in which participants, processes, and circumstance must be used in a discourse. In addition, this research uses Fairclough›s Critical Discourse Analysis to reveal ideological assumptions in discourse. The data is taken from the utterance of one of the constitutional law experts, namely Zainal Arifin Mochtar (ZAM). Fairclough›s CDA model: description, interpretation and explanation are used to analyze the data. This study found that the processes in opening of the film are relational attributive process, material process and behavioral process. Meanwhile, the processes perceived in the content of the movie are material, relational attributive, relational identifying, behavioral, verbal, mental, and existential process. The transitivity analysis in the film produces representation of general election reflected in the ZAM’s speech and create the ideology of the film.
Consumer Fraud Mode by Tricking Prices through Hyperbolic and Persuasive Advertising Promotion Language
Authors: Pratikno Heru , Suseno Imam , Saifullah Aceng Ruhendi
Published: July 2024

In trading activities, sometimes certain people take advantage of the situation to take as much profit as possible from consumers. What these parties do is sometimes done in deceptive ways. However, strangely, consumers are actually tempted by their products, and do not even mind their deception. This has the potential to become a legal problem because of the attempt to deceive consumers with ironic slogans and promotional language. Therefore, the purpose of this research is that the author wants to know how sales cases that occur in minimarkets and online shops have the potential to become legal problems. In addition, the author wants to know what kind of promotional language minimarkets and online shops use to manipulate the selling price so that it looks cheaper to consumers so that it has the potential to become fraud. The data collection used in this research uses observation and documentation methods. After that, the data that has been collected will be analyzed using a qualitative approach. The results show that the use of advertising promotional language can increase sales value. On the other hand, the language has the potential to become a legal case because there are elements of price fraud against consumers in accordance with Article 378 of the Criminal Code.

Health emerges from coordinated psychobiological processes powered by mitochondrial energy transformation. But how do mitochondria regulate the multisystem responses that shape resilience and disease risk across the lifespan? The Mitochondrial Stress, Brain Imaging, and Epigenetics (MiSBIE) study was established to address this question and determine how mitochondria influence the interconnected neuroendocrine, immune, metabolic, cardiovascular, cognitive, and emotional systems among individuals spanning the spectrum of mitochondrial energy transformation capacity, including participants with rare mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) lesions causing mitochondrial diseases (MitoDs). This interdisciplinary effort is expected to generate new insights into the pathophysiology of MitoDs, provide a foundation to develop novel biomarkers of human health, and integrate our fragmented knowledge of bioenergetic, brain–body, and mind–mitochondria processes relevant to medicine and public health.
Adapting a Live-Streamed Digital Theatre Experience Using Physiological Synchrony
Authors: Richardson Mike , Carter Felix , Levordashka Ana , Gilchrist Iain Donald , Stanton Fraser Danaë
Published: July 2024

Digital theatre broadcasting has risen in popularity, yet it remains relatively novel, meaning the production norms for such content have yet to be established. We measured heart rate synchrony within three live-streamed performances and provided data to the filming team to inform the creative direction for the following performance. The audience demonstrated greater heart rate synchrony on the final night compared to the first two nights and rated the final night as significantly more enjoyable. We also measured movement data and narrative engagement and found that movement negatively correlated to narrative engagement and narrative engagement positively correlated with enjoyment. These results highlight the benefits of using physiological assessment of moment-by-moment audience experience and the potential for these data to shape the creative process.
Extracting Principles of Exploration Strategies with a Complex Ecological Task
Authors: Zenkri Oussama , Bolenz Florian , Pachur Thorsten , Brock Oliver
Published: July 2024

Human exploration, a cornerstone of our ability to solve novel problems, is a complex process, posing significant research challenges. Most previous studies simplify tasks to isolate specific variables, creating artificial problems that do not align with those humans have evolved to solve, thus limiting the generalizability of findings. To address this gap, we introduce the Lockbox paradigm: a novel, ecologically valid, and challenging task that promotes active exploration and physical interaction. Data from 91 participants interacting with the Lockbox reveal a remarkable human ability to adapt and solve problems efficiently in complex scenarios. By comparing different interaction methods, we demonstrate the critical role of cost variations, such as physical and cognitive costs, in driving attentiveness and shaping exploration strategies. These findings provide valuable insights into human exploration strategies, with potential applications in fields such as robotics and artificial intelligence.
Leveraging VLLMs for Visual Clustering: Image-to-text mapping shows increased semantic capabilities and interpretability
Authors: Arminio Luigi , Magnani Matteo , Piqueras Matias , Rossi Luca , Segerberg Alexandra
Published: July 2024

Automated image categorization is vital for computational social science, particularly considering the rise of visual content on social media, as it helps the identification of emerging visual narratives in online debates. However, the methods currently used in the field to represent images numerically are unable to fully capture their connotative meaning and do not produce interpretable clusters. In response to these challenges, we evaluate an approach based on the automated generation of intermediate textual descriptions of the input images with respect to the connotative semantic validity of the generated clusters and their interpretability. We show that both aspects are improved over the currently typical clustering approach based on convolutional neural networks.
Leveraging Exogenous Insights: A Comparative Forecast of Paddy Production in Nepal Using ARIMA and ARIMAX Models
Authors: Pokhrel Aditya , Adhikari Renisha
Published: July 2024

Using annual time series data from 1975 to 2022, this study analyzed the ARIMA (1,1,7) and ARIMAX (1,1,7) models to improve paddy production forecasts in Nepal. The ARIMA model was initially employed to forecast paddy production. The availability of agricultural land was subsequently included as an exogenous variable in the ARIMAX model (after a significant endogeneity test) to increase precision. In contrast to the ARIMA model, which predicted paddy production of 5787.64 metric tons per hectare for the year 2022, the ARIMAX model predicted 5681.17 metric tons per hectare. Compared to the ARIMA model's MAE (0.0295), MAPE (0.797), and RMSE (0.0373), the ARIMAX model exhibited better accuracy with lower values of MAE (0.0247), MAPE (0.667), and RMSE (0.0301). The results emphasize how crucial it is to include pertinent exogenous variables to capture important dynamics influencing agricultural output. The study has important ramifications for Nepalese policymakers and agricultural planners since it suggests that the ARIMAX model can provide additional insight for policies that maximize production and optimize land usage, hence promoting food security and economic stability.
Nexus Between Remittance and Economic Growth: Case of Top Remittance Recipient Countries
Authors: Chhetri Sirjana
Published: July 2024

This paper aims to explore the nexus between remittance and economic growth in the top twenty remittance-recipient countries defined in terms of remittances to GDP ratio by using the panel cointegration approach. Panel data from 2009 to 2022 have been used for the Pedroni and Kao Cointegration test and panel ARDL approach to cointegration. Results showed that while there exists a long-run equilibrium relationship among the variables with a very high degree of adjustment in disequilibrium, remittance flows appear to affect economic growth adversely in the long run. Trade openness and gross fixed capital formation positively affected economic growth while inflation reduced growth in the long run. These results imply that the top remittance-recipient countries need to use remittances productively while addressing their structural problems hindering economic growth including high dependence on external sources and imports, low financial access, weak rule of law, and weak quality of institutions.

Authors: Neupane Sangam
Published: July 2024

Financial literacy is the knowledge and skills to manage money effectively, including budgeting, saving, investing, and borrowing. It empowers individuals to make informed financial decisions aligned with their goals, essential for navigating financial complexities and achieving financial well-being. This article aims to do a systematic literature review on financial literacy in the banking sector to identify the research gap in the Nepalese context. The study is based on the systematic literature review using the Bibliometric analysis of scientific research articles published online through Dimension.ai. The data were searched by covering the year from 1992 to 2024 with the keyword ‘Financial Literacy & Banking Sector’. A total of 283 articles were found in Dimension.ai then it was analyzed from the Virtual Object System (VOSviewer). The findings of the review show that the data on financial literacy in the banking sector revealed a significant increase in publications and citations over recent years, with notable contributions from India and key institutions like the Indian Council of Social Science Research (ICSSR) and Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU). However, the recent decline in the percentage of cited publications indicates a need for improved research quality. The findings of this study give new knowledge about the prevailing status of scientific studies on financial literacy and its impact on the banking service. However, in the Nepalese context, no studies are found in Dimension.ai. So, it is recommended that researchers focus on producing high-quality, impactful studies and foster greater academic collaboration to enhance visibility and influence. Supporting underrepresented regions in financial literacy research can further diversify and strengthen the field.

Employee performance is crucial for organizational effectiveness, quality and efficiency at the task level. This study aims to provide an inclusive understanding on how autocratic leadership (AL) impacts on employee performance (EP) and whether age moderates this impact. It develops a simple regression model and accesses the dummy indicator regression of the variable used and discusses the result of the analysis of Autocratic Leadership and Employee Performance. This study uses primary data collected through likert scale and analyses using IBM SPSS statistics version 25. Similarly, the secondary data were collected through books, journal articles and websites. This study finds that AL has a positive and significant impact on EP with the value of coefficient of multiple determinations 0.111. Furthermore, this study successfully confirms that the moderating variable, age group, had no role on effects of AL on EP shown by the dummy indicator regression analysis. Finally, this study emphasizes the need for further rigorous research to understand the impact of autocratic leadership on employee performance, offering insights beneficial to both academics and organizational managers.

This study aims to examine attributes preferred by farmers of Parsa district for choosing four-wheel tractors. This study presents how farmers perceived their effectiveness based on common attributes of tractors like origin, brand, fuel consumption, horsepower, price, availability of spare parts, and their repair and maintenance. The study is quantitative and based on primary data. A non-probabilistic sampling technique was used with a sample size of 85. Conjoint analysis was applied to estimate part worth utility value, utility range and ranking the attributes of four-wheel tractor. The result show that farmers gave highest preference to fuel consumption with respect to highest utility value following horsepower, origin, price, availability of spare parts and repair and maintenance. Similarly, results show that branded and low-price tractor whose spare parts can be found easily in local market along with assured repair and maintenance facility available from authorised agency is preferred by farmers. Horsepower has been important attributes for tractorselection, where farmers are mostly preferring tractors having horsepower greater than 45 hp. This study findings will provide valuable tools and a basic framework for suppliers and manufacturers for evaluating their market efficiency and preparing strategies for promoting four-wheel tractors.

The study examines how branding affects consumer behaviour of consumers visiting Himalayan Java Coffee Shops in Kathmandu Valley by assessing the mediating effect of consumer attitude in relation to the branding elements (brand image, brand loyalty, brand trust and brand experience). The cross-sectional data was purposefully collected from 208 respondents ranging from under 18 years to older people residing in the Kathmandu Valley and previously who are exposed to consumption of coffee. Primary data was analysed quantitatively by using SMART-PLS. The study findings indicated significant impact of the constructs – Brand Image, Brand Loyalty, Brand Trust and Brand Experience on consumer behaviour at Himalayan Java. Additionally, the structural model affirmed that consumer attitude would act as a mediator in the relationship between Brand Image, Brand Loyalty, Brand Trust and Brand Experience. By filling in empirical gaps and utilising Theory of Planned Behaviour (TPB), this study advances our knowledge of how Brand Image, Brand Loyalty, Brand Trust and Brand Experience impacts consumer behaviour especially in case of Himalayan Java. The study stresses the eminent role of branding that impacts the consumer behaviour with the potential to assist the managers of several service and manufacturing industries to consider various branding elements when reaching out to the customers.
