Silica gels are the porous materials widely employed in both the industry and housekeeping. Domestic manufacturers produce bead and powder silica gels; however, some application fields of silica gels completely depend on the import. So it is necessary to develop technologies for their production, the introduction of which would allow replacing the imported silica gels. The paper describes methods for improving the properties of bead silica gels and new approaches to the production of powder silica gels and silica gels with the ordered pore structure. It was proposed to use inexpensive feedstock for their preparation, particularly, industrial wastes from the production of alumina – Si-stoff, and the natural material – diatomite. By controlling the parameters of deposition and formation of the silica structure it is possible to obtain silica gels with a wide range of pore structure characteristics, which could be used in various application fields.

The aim of this study is to examine the competitiveness in the Kuwaiti banking sector for the period 2010 - 2020. The methodology of study assessed the degree of competition among nine national Kuwaiti banks using the Panzar and Rosse model, or the H statistic approach. The study assessed how close the banking sector in Kuwait is to perfect competition. It built a model for the revenues of the banking sector in Kuwait. The model considered various specifications that affect the banking sector’s performance like revenues, risk, deposits, and bank size. In addition, this study analyzed the major factors affecting this sector’s performance. Using the panel data methodology of estimation, the results revealed that the market structure for the banking sector in Kuwait is close to monopolistic competition. Though the banking sector in Kuwait is still in its development stages, the results provided a signal to policy makers regarding their policies. One main implication of the study is to keep strong competition among banks which requires maintaining the stability within the banking system.

El trabajo y la familia consisten en importantes fuentes de la felicidad y, a la vez, en potenciales orígenes de conflicto. A pesar de que en las últimas décadas ha aumentado no solo la proporción de familias con doble ingreso, sino también el estrés laboral, no existen instrumentos psicométricos validados en Latinoamérica para evaluar los conflictos laborales que influyen en el entorno familiar y viceversa. Por lo tanto, el objetivo del presente estudio consistió en la traducción y en la validación de las Work-Family Conflict and Family-Work Conflict Scales. La muestra (n = 524) se recogió por Internet y los resultados del análisis factorial confirmatorio evidenciaron unas propiedades psicométricas adecuadas del instrumento, c2(30) = 76.719, p < .001, RMSEA = .060, 90% IC = .044 - .077, SRMR = .040, CFI = .990, TLI = .985. A través de un análisis de invarianza factorial, se comprobó que el instrumento evalúa el mismo constructo, independientemente del género de la persona que responde a sus preguntas. El análisis de validez convergente mostró asociaciones significativas con depresión y ansiedad. Se concluye que la validación de las Work-Family Conflict and Family-Work Conflict Scales se realizó de forma exitosa, por lo que su versión traducida puede ser utilizada en el área hispanoparlante.

Authors: Rahman Muhammad Syarifuddin , Juniati Dwi , Manuharawati Manuharawati
Published: December 2022

Mathematical proficiency is the ability to use conceptual understanding, procedural fluency, strategic competence, adaptive reasoning, and productive disposition in problem-solving. This study aims to determine the effect of mathematics anxiety level and cognitive independence level on mathematical proficiency. This research combined quantitative and qualitative methods to determine the effect of mathematics anxiety and cognitive independence on mathematical proficiency. It used the multiple linear regression test for the quantitative approach. Moreover, the qualitative approach was used to see the effect of anxiety level and cognitive independence on mathematical proficiency. One hundred fifty-five high school students participated in this study, and it was found that mathematics anxiety affects mathematical proficiency negatively while cognitive independence affects mathematical proficiency positively. Students who have high mathematics anxiety use trial and error strategies, while their counterparts, having low mathematics anxiety, use analytical strategies. Students with high cognitive independence can process the information and tend to be independent, while those with low cognitive independence do so illogically and tend to need help from others. The results of this study are hoped to be beneficial for teachers in choosing learning methods.

Published: December 2022

For vocational school students, career maturity is an important part of the curriculum. The evaluation of career maturity can be done using a questionnaire. The existing career maturity instruments of CMI and revised CMI show low internal consistency. This research aims to develop new instruments for measuring career maturity. The instrument consists of a 20-item Career Maturity Questionnaire and is constructed based on the theory of vocational career maturity. Exploratory factor analysis (EFA) was conducted to examine the measurement property of the new questionnaire. The results of the analysis show that the construct consists of three factors deriving from four factors of the vocational career maturity theory. Two factors are consistent with the vocational career maturity theory. The last factor is found to be the combination of career planning and self-concept. The Indonesian vocational career maturity comprises three factors (1) Career Planning and Self Concept, (2) Career Decision Making and (3) Career Exploration. The questionnaire contains sixteen items giving the required factor loadings. Further research can investigate the concurrent validity of the instrument.

ABSTRACT

This paper discusses Islamic civilization during the Umayyad State in Andalusia. The Umayyad State is the first Islamic caliphate after Khulafaur Rashidin or the second Islamic caliphate after the reign of Rasulullah SAW. The Umayyad State was founded by Muawiyah Ibn Abu Sufyan in 661 M in Damascus (as the center of his government). After the collapse of the Umayyad rule in Damascus, the Umayyad State succeeded in rising and ruling in Andalusia, with Abdurrahman ad-Dakhil as the first caliph. At first, this government was led by an amir, but during the reign of Abdurrahman III changed to caliph. When Islam entered Andalusia, the country experienced rapid progress both in terms of civilization and education. In the process of writing, the author uses a qualitative method by using literacy sources to collect the necessary data.

Published: December 2022

Gender-based violence (GBV) is a global problem that affectswomen and girls of all races, colors, and creeds. It occurs across all socioeconomic and cultural backgrounds, and in many societies, including Burundidespite different international, regional, and national instruments ratified toprotect women against GBV and its effects. This study conducted with 96individuals selected using Alain Bouchard’s technic highlights the impact ofgender-based violence (GBV) on community development and provides somesuggestions for action in remedy to gender-based violence persistence forcommunity development. It specifically shows the reasons behind thepersistence of gender-based violence in Rumonge Commune and itsimplications on the bad living conditions of families. To achieve this, we optedfor qualitative approaches with the use of the interview guide and quantitativewith the use of a questionnaire administered directly to heads of householdsdistributed in 6 zones of Rumonge Commune. The study found that the reasonsbehind the persistence of GBV in Rumonge are fundamentally linked toBurundian culture and tradition that structure how people have to behave and live in society. In view of the impact of GBV, identified as a constraint toindividual and societal development, this article highlights a set of activitiesto be done to reduce GBV. These include community dialogues around lawsregarding families and development; education and awareness of the impactsand ways to prevent it for community development. Perpetrators must also beproperly prosecuted and victims provided with all the needed resources fortreatment and judicial processes.
The Pragmatics of Love Text Messages among University of Uyo Students
Authors: Robert Esther Ekom
Published: December 2022

In line with the trends in media and pragmatic discourse, studies on texting have been examined, focusing on the creative utilization of language resources as well as their contextual cues. The purpose of this paper is to examine the socio-pragmatic manifestations of love and gender differences in the love text messages of the University of Uyo students. Specifically, the objective of the paper is to confirm whether or not the differences are statistically significant and culturally conditioned. Thus, adopting quantitative analytical methods (chi-square and percentages), the analysis is anchored on the socio-pragmatic theory of Leech (1983) and supplemented by Thurlow and Brown’s (2003) romantic and sexual orientations. Twenty (10 male and 10 female) students of the Faculty of Arts supplied their two most preferred love text messages. The data are categorized according to thematic frames of Love Reiteration (LR), Wooing (Wg), Love Wordplay (LW), and Sexual Behaviour (SB). The results indicate that LR texts were the most preferred (18/45%), while SB texts were the least preferred (5/12.5%). Again, whereas the male students preferred both LR and Wg texts most (6/31.6%) and LW texts least (3/15.7%), the female ones loved LR texts most (12/57.1%) and SB texts least (1/4.8%). Thus, the chi-square quantitative analysis of the results shows that the differences in the text preferences are significant. The paper submits that the University of Uyo students’ love text preferences affirm the second-wave feminist linguistic typology of socio-cultural differences in the language use of men and women in Nigeria. Again, the findings have revealed interesting and varied ideologies about how women and men ought to speak in their speech communities. Based on the conclusion, it is recommended that further socio-pragmatics research be carried out in other tertiary institutions, preferably in the South Eastern and Northern parts of Nigeria or schools outside Nigeria, but beaming research light on the socio-pragmatics of age and status differences as well as differences in the students’ years of study.
A Goal Programming Model for Dispatching Trucks in an Underground Gold Mine
Authors: Emdini Gliwan Suliman , Crowe Kevin
Published: December 2022

The cost of transporting mined materials in an underground mine is major. This cost typically represents between 50 to 60 percent of a mine’s total operating costs. The problem of dispatching trucks in an underground gold mine is of major economic importance and warrants the use of a decision support model. The developments of a realistic decision-support model for the dispatching problem in an underground gold mine were addressed in this paper. The problem must address multiple conflicting objectives, and therefore, a goal programming model was formulated. The model was applied to a case study, the Red Lake underground gold mine, in Ontario, Canada. The results showed major improvements in meeting the multiple objectives of this problem versus a single objective model. The results also illustrate the flexibility that the dispatching problem (in underground gold mines) yields when solved for multiple objectives using a goal programming model.

Published: December 2022

In tropical Africa, leafy vegetables are traditionally cooked and eaten as a relish together with a starchy staple food. To contribute to their wider utilization and valorization in food sector, five leafy vegetables consumed in Western Côte d’Ivoire were investigated for their amino acids composition. The leaves of Abelmoschus esculentus, Celosia argentea, Ipomea batatas, Manihot esculenta and Myrianthus arboreus were the five leafy vegetables studied. The samples of these five leafy vegetables in this study were collected at maturity in cultivated farmlands located at Dabou (Southern Côte d’Ivoire). Then, they were washed and oven dried at 60 °C during three days before ground. The amino acid content of the ground samples were analyzed by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) technical. The results were showed a significantly different (p ˂ 0.05) between amino acids contents of the five leafy vegetables. For a non-essential amino acids, all the five leaves studied were contained only proline with concentrations varying from 563.6 ± 1.08 to 1562.9 ± 1.88 mg/100 g. The two(2) other non-essential amino acids, arginine and tyrosine were detected only in leaves of C. argentea (1370.6 mg/100mg) and A. esculentus (1.70 mg/100mg) respectively. Concerning essential amino acids, only leucine was contained in all leafy vegetables with contents between 175.9 ± 0.56 and 9685.9 ± 5.14 mg/100 g. For the other essential amino acids, lysine was contained in leaves of C. argentea, I. batatas and M. arboreus with respectives concentrations of 266.7 ± 0.89 mg/100 g, 7225.9 ± 2.56 mg/100 g and 182.4 ± 0.66 mg/100 g. Tryptophane was quantified in leaves of A. esculentus and I. batatas with respectives levels of 1205.4 ± 1.86 mg/100g and 175.4 ± 0.84 mg/100g. Valine was detected in leaves of C. argentea and M. esculenta with respectives contents of 1069.4 ± 1.21 mg/100g and 1639.1 ± 1.39 mg/100g. Methionine was contained in leaf of C. argentea with level of 165.1 ± 0.61 mg/100g. The important concentration of amino acids revealed in leaves studied clearly would justify their consumption by Western Côte d’Ivoire populations. Therefore, exploitation of leafy vegetables could contribute food security of ivorian population.

Introduction: Tuberculosis remains a public health problem worldwide. The BCG vaccination is one of the response means. The objective of this work was to study the impact of BCG vaccination on morbidity and mortality related to childhood tuberculosis in Niamey. Patients and methods: It was a multicenter prospective and comparative study from January to September 2017 in two-referral hospital centers of Niamey and the National Anti-Tuberculosis Center. The study population consisted exclusively of children aged 0 to 15 years old suffering from tuberculosis. Epidemiological, diagnostic, and evolving aspects in vaccinated and unvaccinated children were studied. Statistical tests used were Pearson's Chi² and Fisher's exact test (p <0.05). Results: Ninety-one children were studied. The BCG vaccination rate was 60.4%. The mean age of children was 6 years 11 months [3 months-15 years]. Children under 2 years of age were less affected (11%) in vaccinated children than in unvaccinated children (3.2%). No association was found between the duration of tuberculosis signs (p = 0.37), expression of tuberculin skin test (p = 0.43), and the children's BCG vaccination status. On the other hand, there was a significant link between vaccination status and the occurrence of complications (p = 0.014), and death risk (p = 0.003). Conclusion: This study shows that children’s BCG vaccination status correlates with some aspects of tuberculosis. Unvaccinated children have a significantly higher risk of complications and death from TB.

Eboinda a fait l’objet de plusieurs campagnes de recherche scientifique et pétrolière depuis l’observation de suintements de bitume dans cette zone. La présente étude porte sur la caractérisation sédimentologique et paléoenvironementale de cette zone. L’objectif principal est de déterminer la nature lithologique et l’environnement de dépôt de ses sédiments. Ainsi treize (13) échantillons provenant de deux (2) puits d’hommes ont permis de caractériser les formations sédimentaires d’Eboinda. Au cours de ce travail plusieurs méthodes ont été utilisées pour réaliser les analyses lithologiques, granulométriques et morphoscopiques. Les analyses lithologiques ont mis en évidence une sédimentation dominée par des argiles sableuses avec des sables quartzeux et du bitume en faible proportion. La granulométrie a distingué trois (03) catégories de sables, allant de très grossiers, grossiers à moyens, tous provenant du domaine fluviatile donc continental transportés en majorité par charriage et par suspension. Les grains de quartz présents dans les sables sont subanguleux à subarrondis à aspect émoussé luisant (90%) ou rond-mats (10%). Les premiers indiquent que les grains ont subi un long transport en milieu fluviatile tandis que les seconds traduisent un transport éolien.

Eboinda has been the subject of several scientific and oil research campaigns since the observation of bitumen seepage in this area. This study focuses on the sedimentological and paleoenvironmental characterization of this area. The main objective is to determine the lithological nature and the deposit environment of its sediments. Thus thirteen (13) samples from two manholes made it possible to characterize the area. During this work, several methods were used to carry out the lithological, grain size and morphoscopic analyses. Lithologic analyzes revealed a sedimentation dominated by sandy clays with quartz sands and bitumen in small proportion. The granulometry distinguished three (03) categories of sand, ranging from very coarse, coarse to medium, all coming from the fluvial domain, therefore continental, transported mainly by bedload and suspension. The quartz grains present in the sands are subangular to subrounded with a shiny blunt aspect (90%) or round-dull (10%). The first indicate that the grains underwent a long transport in a fluvial environment while the second reflect a wind transport.

Librarians should contribute through research and publications to develop their knowledge. Citation is a sign of showing popularity of a paper. This study aims to analyze the effect of the number of pages of a paper on the number of citations in Scopus indexed publications. This study uses 35 samples of secondary data that have been eliminated from 80 population data downloaded from Scopus. This study uses the OLS method to analyze the effect of variable X to variable Y. The results show that the prob. score. variable number of pages as variable X > 0.05, which means there is no effect on the number of citations as variable Y. paper quality determines whether a paper has the opportunity to be widely cited by other researchers or not. In addition, papers that have a large number of pages do not always have good quality content, so they do not always get the attention of other academics. Other content such as the uniqueness of the title, the regularity of the abstract, and the keywords that symbolize the content of the content also affect a paper to get a chance for citation.

Published: December 2022

The spread of communicable diseases and causing disease in many living things is defined as an epidemic. Epidemics lead to an increase in anxiety and fear levels in society. Studies show that disgust also promotes psychologically-based response behaviors that serve as the first line of defense against pathogens, especially in situations such as pandemics. All of these defensive responses are referred to as the "behavioral immune system". The behavioral immune system is involved in triggering perceived vulnerability to infectious disease (PVD). This system is hypersensitive to any sign that might represent a threat from a pathogen, thus minimizing the possibility of infection. Studies show that protective behaviors are based on perceptions of high vulnerability to the disease. This study aims to evaluate the validity and reliability of the PVD-S for Turkish society and language. The study is methodological research conducted between February and April 2021. The participants were university students studying at different faculties. In the reliability analysis of the Turkish version of the scale, the internal consistency of Cronbach's alpha coefficient was 0.712. Test-retest evaluation of the scale yielded an intraclass correlation coefficient of 0.882 and a Spearman correlation coefficient of 0.815. When content equivalent form validity was evaluated, it was found that there was a weak and positive correlation between the SAI and PVD-S scores (r=0.268; p=0.003). The total variance explained by the scale after EFA was calculated as 56.517% and it was found that the scale items were divided into 4 sub-dimensions (infection perception, infection perception reverse-scored, germ avoidance, germ avoidance reverse-scored) using the Varimax rotation method. According to the data we obtained as a result of our study, it appears that the Turkish version of the PVD-S has sufficient psychometric properties and has adequate validity and reliability, especially in the young population.

Propõe-se discutir e analisar criticamente, a partir de uma perspectiva interseccional, os efeitos da pandemia de Covid-19 nos modos de vida e trabalho de mulheres brasileiras.  Para tal, realizou-se revisão narrativa de literatura contendo artigos científicos e dados oriundos de entidades nacionais e internacionais de pesquisa, em articulação com matérias e textos jornalísticos. As bases de dados utilizadas foram Portal de Periódicos CAPES/MEC, Portal Regional da BVS e SciELO. A partir deste levantamento, foram formadas categorias de análise que revelam três aspectos centrais por meio dos quais é possível observar os efeitos da pandemia na vida e trabalho das mulheres, a saber: trabalho doméstico, home office e/ou teletrabalho, e violência doméstica. A análise do material selecionado permite defender o argumento de que a crise pandêmica intensificou formas já existentes de exploração e dominação da vida e trabalho feminino, reforçando desigualdades estruturais e reproduzindo violências historicamente instituídas. Propõe-se que este artigo esteja vinculado aos objetivos das lutas feministas e ao compromisso social de uma psicologia ético-política e, por isso, antirracista. Estima-se que os dados aqui reunidos possam servir de base para a elaboração de políticas públicas de prevenção, cuidado e assistência a mulheres durante e no período pós-pandêmico.

A saúde mental no trabalho vem ao longo dos anos ganhando espaço nas propostas de políticas de atenção aos servidores públicos, especialmente no contexto da educação profissional e tecnológica, com a inserção de profissionais da área de saúde nessas instituições. O referencial teórico-metodológico que fundamentou a intervenção foi a Psicodinâmica do Trabalho, especialmente a Clínica Psicodinâmica do Trabalho, enfocando a relação entre saúde mental e trabalho. O objetivo deste trabalho foi relatar a realização dessa intervenção no âmbito de um instituto federal localizado na região amazônica. Para tanto, foram realizados três encontros, no formato de oficinas, com cinquenta e oito participantes. As temáticas abordadas foram relacionamento interpessoal no trabalho, ética no serviço público e trabalho em equipe. Os resultados revelaram que a intervenção realizada possibilitou identificar e discutir aspectos relevantes da organização do trabalho e das percepções e vivências em relação ao trabalho dos servidores, que podem influenciar no processo de saúde e adoecimento mental. Desse modo, concluiu-se que é cogente, nesses espaços, a realização de ações e programas, que oportunizem espaços de fala e escuta entre os trabalhadores sobre suas vivências relacionadas ao trabalho, com foco em abordar e promover saúde mental no setor público.
COVID-19 Impacts on Border Community Organizations

Published: December 2022

The COVID-19 pandemic massively affected the nonprofit sector. This article explores how the crisis has impacted nonprofit organizations at a U.S.–Mexico border community with a large population of minorities and migrants. Guided by resource dependency theory and the nonprofit capacity building framework, surveys reveal that nonprofits with less financial support from the government sector, low leadership, and weak operational capacities receive critical impacts from the pandemic. The findings also show that local nonprofits are bonded closely to the community during the pandemic, which reflects the collectivistic culture in Hispanic/Latino communities. This study provides important insights on how local nonprofits with limited resources and an increase in demand from vulnerable populations struggled with the pandemic.
