Understanding luxury millennial consumption experiences as means to improve brand value
Authors: Wilson Jonathan , Tartakovska Diana , Baghdasaryan Lika
Published: January 2025

Luxury customer experience (LCX) is characterized by higher degrees of attention, exclusivity, personal space, augmented products and services, and personalization – all at a premium compared to standard offerings and to a smaller customer base. Brands and consumers of luxury experiences forge intense, intimate, and memorable bonds, which they communicate more widely with others – further amplifying emotional connections. Also, in a form of accrued social currency, these experiences are converted into increased perceptions of value and status beyond functionality. Airline companies have managed to segment, compartmentalise, and leverage travel in the same flight, for different price points and experiences, in a way that challenges classical notions of luxury and quality. This chapter focusses on the habits, perceptions, experiences, and aspirations of millennial travellers. It examines the trend of millennials choosing to travel on premium packages, for recreational reasons. Linked to this, definitions and perceptions of luxury, branding, identity, and social currency are explored – to understand how LCX can be used to improve airline brand values and marketing activities. The chapter presents a conceptual model and checklist designed to help align airline branding and LCX as a sequenced and holistic approach, which may have wider applications in the luxury hospitality, tourism, and events industry.

Published: January 2025

Livestock areas are areas specifically designated for livestock activities or integrated as a component of farming. The Beef Cattle Livestock development program is faced with the problem of increasingly narrow business land due to increasing competition in land use which results in the land available for green animal feed becoming increasingly narrow. Lampung Province has an area of 33,575.41 Ha with hilly and mountainous topography making it suitable for livestock development, beef production of 21.18 million kg/year, and has large land potential for development. while the beef cattle population is 906,568 heads. With this potential, it is very possible for Lampung Province to become a region for developing beef cattle farming. However, the problem is that Lampung Province does not yet have mapping and standards for spatial planning or beef cattle farming areas. This research was carried out by identifying and analyzing the potential for beef cattle development in Lampung Province using 2 analyzes namely; Descriptive Analysis, and Location Quation (LQ) Analysis. LQ analysis is used to determine the areas of beef cattle livestock centers in districts/cities in Lampung Province. The results of the research show that there are 14 regencies/cities that can be used as business centers for the maintenance and development of beef cattle in Lampung Province. Of the 15 regencies/cities in Lampung Province, only Bandar Lampung City has an LQ value of less than 1. The results of this research can become a reference for the Lampung Provincial government, related agencies and other stakeholders in making policy decisions for developing beef cattle businesses in Lampung Province in the future.

Published: January 2025

The research aimed to examine the effect of vitamin A and magnesium supplementation on protein consumption and nitrogen retention in sheep was carried out on February 29 - June 26 2023. The material used was 18 local male sheep aged 7 - 8 months with a weight of 17,12 ±1,94 kg were reared for 2 months in individual stage model cages. The basal feed given is concentrate (75%) and ammoniated rice straw (25%). The in vivo experimental method uses a Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) as a group, namely the initial weight of the research sheep, consisting of 6 groups that act as repeaters. Treatments tested T1 = Ammoniated rice straw (25%) + concentrate feed (75%); T2 = T1 + vitamin A (2000 IU); T3 = T2 + magnesium mineral (1 gram). The variables measured were protein consumption and nitrogen retention. The data obtained was then analyzed using analysis of variance (ANOVA) which was further tested with the Honestly Significant Difference (HSD) test. Protein consumption was significantly influenced by treatment (P<0.05) with a mean of 101.71 ± 3.85 grams/head/day (T1), 109.03 ± 8.60 grams/head/day (T2), and 115.99 ± 5.35 grams/head/day (T3). Likewise, nitrogen retention was significantly influenced by treatment (T<0.05) with an average of 9.37 ± 1.41 grams/head/day (T1), 9.81 ± 1.51 grams/head/day (T2), 10.21 ± 1.53 grams/head/day (T3). The HSD test results showed that the protein consumption and nitrogen retention of T3 sheep were significantly (P<0.05) higher than those of T1 and T2. The research conclusion was that supplementation of vitamin A and magnesium (T3) in basal feed was able to increase protein consumption by 12.31% and nitrogen retention by 8.24% in sheep when compared to the control treatment (T1).

Published: January 2025

The study uncovers the promising anti-termite properties of Eucalyptus pellita bark extract, a resource often discarded as industrial waste in the pulp and paper manufacturing industry. It investigates the anti-termite efficacy of various extracts from E. pellita bark and identifies the extract with the highest activity, followed by a comprehensive phytochemical analysis. Samples of E. pellita inner bark, outer bark, and mixed bark were ground into 40–60 mesh powder and subjected to extraction using soxhletation techniques with successive extraction in increasingly polar solvents (n-hexane, ethyl acetate, and methanol solvents). The anti-termite activity of these extracts was evaluated using no-choice bioassays to determine the termite antifeedant activity through the weight loss percentage of test samples and the mortality rate of Coptotermes sp. Furthermore, Py-GCMS analysis was conducted on extracts exhibiting the highest anti-termite activity to elucidate their chemical composition. The findings revealed that methanol extracts from all three parts of E. pellita bark exhibited the most potent anti-termite activity against Coptotermes sp., as evidenced by the highest mortality rate (100%) and cellulose paper weight loss of 9.57 ± 6.66 mg. These methanol extracts were predominantly composed of phenolic compounds, particularly condensed tannins, suggesting a potential breakthrough in termite control. The findings indicate that E. pellita bark may be a sustainable and eco-friendly alternative to chemical pesticides for termite control. Furthermore, its utilization may facilitate waste valorization in the pulp and paper industry, thereby supporting environmental sustainability and economic efficiency.

Eugeniikka suomalaisessa mielenterveyshuollossa
Authors: Heikkinen Antti
Published: January 2025

Eugeniikka nousi suomalaisen mielenterveydenhuollon tärkeäksi suuntaukseksi tämän vuosisadan alussa. Huomiota herätti tuolloin laajan selvitystyön antamat tulokset mielisairauksien voimakkaasta lisääntymisestä. Tilanteen korjaamiseksi vaadittiin väestön perintötekijöiden suojelemista joko laitoshoidolla tai sterilisaatiolla. 1930-luvulla toteutettu mielenterveydenhuollon reforma sai keskeisen sisällön tästä keskustelusta. Vuonna 1937 säädetyn mielisairaslain valmistelutyössä vaadittiin eristävien laitosten laajaa rakennusohjelmaa. Sairaaloiden kalleuden ja maan huonon taloudellisen tilanteen vuoksi hanketta ei voitu kuitenkaan toteuttaa, ja täydentäväksi ratkaisuksi hyväksyttiin avohoito. Vuonna 1935 säädetyn steriloimislain tarkoituksena oli puolestaan parantaa väestön perintötekijöitä ja pyrkiä näin vähentämään laitosten tarvetta.

Lika chans till hälsa genom livet?
Authors: Vågerö Denny
Published: January 2025

En genomgång av tidigare litteratur, såsom de data som här presenteras, visar att klasskillnader i dödlighet varierar systematiskt över ålder. Här fokuseras på tre perioder i livet, nämligen de första levnadsåren, inklusive fosterperioden; vuxenövergångens period; och perioden efter död eller pensionering. Dessa perioder kan ha en särskild betydelse för förståelsen av hur ojämlikhet i hälsa och dödlighet genereras. Implikationerna för en politik som vill reducera ojämlikhet i hälsa diskuteras. Utöver tidigare välkända mål för hälsopolitiken, som lika rätt till vård, hälsoupplysning och lokalt hälsoarbete, föreslås att långsiktiga förändringar av arbetslivet erbjuder en potential för förbättrad folkhälsa och minskad ojämlikhet. Pensionsrättigheter kan vara ett annat intressant policyområde.
Skitsofreniapotilaiden psykososiaalinen selviytyvyys
Authors: Jääskeläinen Juha , Viinamäki Heimo
Published: January 2025

Skitsofrenia muodostaa vakavan kansanterveydellisen ongelman Suomessa. Tutkimuksessamme kartoitimme Pohjois-Savon (N=255 000) kaikkien hoidossa olevien skitsofreniaa sairastavien henkilöiden (N=1600) hoitotilanteen. Valtaosa potilaista oli naimattomia, ja hoito tapahtui pääosin avohoidossa kahdenkeskisessä hoitosuhteessa.
Kartoituksemme henkilöistä suurin osa (87 %) oli eläkkeellä. Hoitoa oli annettu useita vuosia, ja yli viisi vuotta hoidossa olleita oli lähes 60 %. Melkein kaikki potilaat saivat psyykenlääkitystä, useimmiten neuroleptejä. Avohoidon potilaat olivat vähäoireisia, mutta noin puolella esiintyi puutteita sosiaalisissa taidoissa.
Hoitohenkilökunta arvioi, että potilaat tarvitsevat kuntoutuakseen tiiviimpää hoitoa ja joustavia mahdollisuuksia edetä kuntoutusjärjestelmässä. Suosittelemme voimakasta panostamista sairauden akuuttiin vaiheeseen. Hoidossa tulisi käyttää mahdollisimman monipuolisia menetelmiä, ja perhe tulisi aina ottaa mukaan hoitoprosessiin.
Kuntoutumisnäkökulma olisi huomioitava heti hoidon alusta alkaen. Kuntoutusjärjestelmää tulisi entisestään tehostaa, erityisesti avohoidossa. Psykiatrisen erikoissairaanhoidon tulisi jatkossakin kantaa päävastuu skitsofreniapotilaiden hoidosta ja kuntouttamisesta.
15D - askeln kohti yleistä terveyteen liittyvän elämänlaadun mittaria

Published: January 2025

Artikkelissa esitellään yleinen viisitoistaulotteinen terveyteen liittyvän elämänlaadun mittari(15D), kuvaillaan sen ominaisuuksia ja käytöstä saatuja kokemuksia. Mittarin avulla voidaanperiaatteessa kuvata kymmenen miljardia toisensa poissulkevaa 15-ulotteista terveyden/terveyteenliittyvää elämänlaadun tilaa. Mittaria sovellettiin sairaala- ja terveyskeskuspotilaidenterveydentilan ja sen muutosten arviointiin . Saatujen kokemusten perusteella 15D -mittari näyttääsovelluskelpoiselta, käytännölliseltä, helppokäyttöiseltäja luotettavalta. Mittari mahdollistaapotilaan tilan toistuvan mittaamisen, mikä on suuri etu tilanteissa, joissa terveydentilamuuttuu nopeasti ja muutokset tulisi pystyä rekisteröimään.15D-mittarissa sovellettava kaksivaiheinen arvotusmenetelmä tekee terveydentilojen arvottamisestaratkaisevasti yksinkertaisemman ja helpomman kuin perinteisten suorien arvotusmenetelmienkäyttö. Kaksivaiheinen menetelmä tuottaa hieman korkeampia arvoja terveydentiloillekuin suorat arvotusmenetelmät, mutta saadut arvot ovat läheisessä yhteydessä toisiinsa.
Koettu terveydentila yleissairaalahoidon, vanhainkotihoidon ja kuolleisuuden ennustajana
Authors: Anttila Sari
Published: January 2025

Kotona asuvista 65 vuotta täyttäneistä kuusamolaisista 1040 (90 %) osallistui terveyshaastatteluun vuonna 1978. Vanhuksista 12 % arvioi terveydentilansa hyväksi, 46 % tyydyttäväksi, 26 % huonohkoksi ja 16 % huonoksi. Vaivojen määrällä, lukumäärällä ja psyykkisellä oireilulla oli merkitsevä yhteys huonoon terveydentilaan, kun somaattisten sairauksien vaikutus vakioitiin.
Terveytensä huonoksi arvioineilla oli vuosina 1979–1983 4,2 kertaa enemmän yleissairaalapäiviä vanhusta kohden vuodessa verrattuna terveytensä hyväksi arvioineisiin. Vanhainkotipäivissä ero oli 6,7-kertainen ja lääkärissäkäynneissä 1,8-kertainen.
Seitsenvuotiskuolleisuus oli suurin terveydentilansa huonoksi arvioineilla (46 %) ja pienin niillä, jotka arvioivat terveydentilansa hyväksi (17 %). Kuolemanvaara terveytensä huonoksi arvioineilla oli 2,6-kertainen verrattuna terveytensä hyväksi arvioineisiin. Kun iän, sukupuolen ja somaattisen sairastavuuden vaikutus vakioitiin, kuolleisuus oli merkitsevästi korkeampi niillä, jotka alussa ilmoittivat terveydentilansa huonohkoksi tai huonoksi.
Koettu terveydentila ennusti hyvin maaseudun vanhusten yleissairaalahoitoa, vanhainkotihoitoa, lääkärissäkäyntejä sekä kuolleisuutta. Helposti selvitettävää tietoa koetusta terveydentilasta voitaisiin hyödyntää etsittäessä vanhuksia, joilla on muita suurempi laitokseen joutumisen vaara, ja suunnata erityisesti heille kotisairaanhoidon ja kodinhoitoavun palveluja.
"Margariinia ei ole olemassa mulle ollenkaan"
Authors: Helminen Päivi , Prättälä Ritva
Published: January 2025

Tyydyttyneiden rasvojen runsaan käytön yhteyksistä sydän- ja verisuonitauteihin on keskusteltu Suomessa jo kolmen vuosikymmenen ajan. Tämän vuoksi voisi olettaa myös maidontuottajien tietävän, että tyydyttyneiden rasvojen käyttöä suositellaan vähennettävän. Tutkimuksessa kuvataan maidontuottajien voin ja margariinin käyttötottumuksia sekä heidän käsityksiään näiden rasvojen terveellisyydestä.
Tutkimusaineisto kerättiin teemahaastattelumenetelmällä vuonna 1987 yhden maatalousvaltaisen kunnan alueelta Hämeestä. Haastatteluihin osallistui 20 maidontuottajapariskuntaa, jotka olivat 26-49-vuotiaita. Kaikissa perheissä käytettiin lähes yksinomaan voita. Voi hankittiin aina meijeristä, josta ei saanut muita ravintorasvoja. Maidontuottajat tiesivät, että suomalaisten tulisi vähentää rasvan käyttöä, mutta he eivät uskoneet, että margariini olisi voita terveellisempää.
Maidontuottajat ratkaisivat omien rasvan käyttötottumustensa ja ravitsemustiedon välisen ristiriidan sivuuttamalla voita koskevan negatiivisen terveystiedon ja sulkemalla margariinin pois ajatuksistaan.

Emilio B. Coutaret. Artista y agente cultural multifacético
Authors: Andruchow Marcela
Published: January 2025

This paper examines the works that the French artist Emilio Bonnet Coutaret (1863-1949) created for the Museo de La Plata (MLP) in 1922. It begins with a brief overview of his career as an artist, teacher and cultural manager, and then moves on to characterize and interpret his paintings. Coutaret painted two large murals in the Museum's rotundas: a riverside landscape in the rotunda on the upper floor and a representation of Pampas prehistoric fauna in the Entrance Hall. These paintings occupied two spaces that had been left vacant due to the extreme deterioration of the previously existing murals painted by artists Reinaldo Giudici and Luis De Servi during the founding period of MLP, between 1886 and 1888. Emilio Coutaret had been Head of the Drawing School that operated in the Museo between 1908 and 1921, so he knew both MLP and its then director, Dr. Luis María Torres, very well. It may be assumed that both the making of the murals and its themes were direct commissions from Torres. Finally, the murals have a naturalistic and detailed finish, and it is possible that the artist made them from sketches taken in situ. These characteristics add verisimilitude to these works, a quality they share with the other murals distributed in the central space of the MLP.
The Influence of Demographic and Economic Factors on the Widow’s Reverse Annuity Benefits in Coronavirus Pandemic
Authors: Marciniuk Agnieszka , Zmyślona Beata
Published: January 2025

The COVID-19 pandemic has affected many areas of society and the economy. In the epidemiological field, it has significantly increased mortality, especially in the elderly population. It has greatly affected the real estate and financial market. The price of housing, inflation, and interest rates rose. Therefore, housing is currently unaffordable. The analysis of the Life Expectancy Tables jumped to a higher risk of death for men than for women. The pandemic has made women more likely to be widowed than men, and more often, while their economic and social status has worsened.

Higher mortality rates have an impact on the cash flow associated with insurance and reverse annuity contracts. Reverse annuity benefits also depend on the value of property and the interest rate.

This article analyses the impact of higher mortality rates, property values, and interest rates on annuity benefits for widows. The actuarial value of the life annuity is used on the calculation of benefits. The interest rate is modelled using the Svensson model of spot interest and the 3m WIBOR. Financial mathematics for life insurance and demographic methods are used.

Authors: Dündar Mehmet Ali , Demir Deveci Havva Nur , Topak Ramazan
Published: January 2025

Bu çalışmanın amacı sulamalı buğday üretiminde, üretim girdilerinden kaynaklanan toplam sera gazı (GHG) emisyonlarının azaltılması da dahil olmak üzere, sulama yönetimi yoluyla buğday üretiminde enerji verimliliğini artırma ve çevresel etkiyi azaltma potansiyelini değerlendirmektir. Bu kapsamda gerekli olan üretim girdileri ve ürün verimine ilişkin veriler, 2018-2020 döneminde, Konya’da buğdayda tamamlayıcı sulama üzerine yürütülen tarla denemesinden elde edilmiştir. Bu bağlamda beş farklı sulama rejimi dikkate alınmış olup, bunlar: TTS, buğdayın üç kritik gelişme döneminde, 0-90 cm toprak katmanında eksilen nem miktarı kadar sulama; KTS-1, buğdayın üç kritik gelişme döneminde 90’ar mm su ile sulama; KTS-2, buğdayın üç kritik gelişme döneminde 70’er mm su ile sulama; KTS-3, buğdayın üç kritik gelişme döneminde 50’şer mm su ile sulama ve Y, yağışa dayalı konudur. Çalışmadan elde edilen sonuçlara göre, en yüksek dane verimi (7918 kg ha- 1) ve enerji çıktısı (285857 MJ ha-1) TTS uygulamasında elde edilirken, en iyi enerji üretkenliği (0,935 kg MJ-1) ile enerji verimliliği oranı (12,46) ve en düşük çevre kirliliği (2272 kgCO2 eşd ha-1) KTS-3 rejimi altında gerçekleşmiştir. Çalışma kapsamındaki enerji verimliliği ve çevresel kirlilik analizi önemli bulgulara yol açmıştır. Konya gibi tarım arazisi çok, su kaynakları kısıtlı olan bölgelerde, birim alandan (1 ha) yüksek verimin elde edildiği tam sulama (TTS) yerine, aynı ürün miktarının KTS-2 altında 1,04 ha ve KTS-3 rejimi altında ise 1,09 ha’dan üretilebileceği görülmüştür. Bu yolla, ürün miktarında bir azalış olmadan, sulama suyunda %32,4 ile %49 arasında bir tasarruf sağlanırken, sera gazı emisyonu ise %10,3 ile %15,6 arasında azaltılabilecektir.
Exploring the Antioxidant and Neuroprotective Potential of Muscari armeniacum: Phenolic Profiling and Enzyme Inhibition
Authors: Topal Fevzi , Yılmaz Firat , Topal Meryem , Menevşeoğlu Ahmed
Published: January 2025

This study aimed to investigate the antioxidant and enzyme inhibitory properties of Muscari armeniacum, a plant native to Türkiye, which is known for its bioactive compound content. Ethanol extracts of Muscari armeniacum were prepared and analyzed using a variety of bioanalytical methods to assess its potential health-promoting properties. The antioxidant capacity was evaluated through Fe³⁺-Fe²⁺ reduction capacity, CUPRAC, DPPH, and ABTS radical scavenging activities. Additionally, the total phenolic and flavonoid contents of the extracts were determined, as these compounds are critical indicators of antioxidant potential. The antioxidant activity of Muscari armeniacum was compared with five standard antioxidants commonly used for benchmarking: BHA, α-tocopherol, BHT, trolox, and ascorbic acid. The extract demonstrated a high flavonoid content (23.24 µg QE/mg extract) and a significant amount of phenolics (14.38 µg GAE/mg extract), with the flavonoid content being particularly noteworthy. In addition to its antioxidant properties, the enzymatic activity assays revealed that the extract significantly inhibited acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) enzymes, which are associated with neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s. The IC₅₀ values were determined to be 54.14 mg/mL (R² = 0.9695) for AChE and 58.73 mg/mL (R² = 0.9609) for BChE, indicating moderate enzyme inhibition. These results suggest that Muscari armeniacum could serve as a valuable source of bioactive compounds with significant antioxidant and enzyme inhibitory activities. Its potential applications in the treatment of oxidative stress-related diseases and neurodegenerative disorders make it a promising candidate for further pharmacological studies. This research underscores the importance of exploring native plants for their medicinal and therapeutic potential, contributing to the development of alternative treatments for challenging health conditions.
Geleneksel Gıdaların Sosyolojik Boyutu
Authors: Çoksöyler Fikret Nafi , Aktoklu Sevda
Published: January 2025

Yerel geleneksel yemekler bölgelerin tarihsel, coğrafi ve kültürel özelliklerini yansıtırken, bireylerin yeme alışkanlıkları ise sosyal ve ekonomik yapıya dair ipuçları sunar. Günümüzde, küresel endüstriyel gıda üretimi ve dağıtımı karşısında geleneksel gıda üretimi ciddi bir rekabet gücü kaybı yaşamaktadır. Geleneksel tarımsal ürünlerin üreticisi olan çiftçiler, yok olma tehlikesiyle karşı karşıyadır. Bu durum hem geleneksel ürünlerin kaybı hem de yeme-içme kültürümüzün önemli bir kısmının yok olması anlamına gelmektedir. Avrupa Birliği (AB) bu kaybın önlenmesi ve sorunun tüm boyutları ile değerlendirilip çözümü için kısa adı TRUEFOOD olan büyük bir proje yürütmüştür. Bu proje kapsamında AB, geleneksel gıdaların küresel rekabet koşullarında korunmasını sağlarken, üretim süreçlerinin çağın gerektirdiği gıda güvenliği standartlarına uyumlu hâle getirilmesini hedeflemiştir. Türkiye’de ise bu sürece parelel olarak başlatılan ve yaklaşık 20 yıldır düzenlenen Geleneksel Gıdalar Sempozyumu (GGS) serisi ile geleneksel gıdalarımız kayıt altına alınmaya çalışılmaktadır. Ayrıca çeşitli kurumlar AB’de olduğu gibi Coğrafi İşaret (Cİ) tescilleri ile “geleneksel gıdaları” korumaya çalışmaktadır. GGS serisinde sunulan birçok makalede, geleneksel gıdaların sadece ham madde ve üretim teknolojilerinden ibaret olmadığı; bununla birlikte toplumsal kimlik ifadesi, dini ritüel, dayanışmayı teşvik eden bir olgu ve bireylerin hatıralarını yansıtan bir bütün olduğu görülmektedir. Serinin gelecek sempozyumlarında ise “geleneksel gıdalarımızın” kayıt altına alınmasında onların hikâyelerinin ve sosyolojik boyutlarının birlikte inceleneceği bir gelenek oluşturulmasının kültürümüzün devamlılığı açısından büyük yararlar sağlayacağı düşünülmektedir.

This research was carried out during the 2022 and 2023 growing seasons on Agricultural Research and Application Fields of Tokat Gaziosmanpaşa University. The study aimed to investigate the effects of different organic fertilizers and application rates on the yield and yield-related characteristics of black cumin (Nigella sativa L.). The experiment was designed using a split plot arrangement in a randomized complete blocks design with three replications. The main plots were assigned to five organic fertilizer types: Leonardite, Vermicompost, Solid Humus, Chicken Manure and Sheep Manure, while the subplots included in the same way in all fertilizer forms four fertilizer doses (0, 150, 300 and 600 kg/da). The study utilized “Çameli” variety, the only registered Nigella sativa L. variety in Turkiye. Key parameters examined over both years included plant height (cm), number of branches per plant (number), number of capsules per plant (number), number of grains per capsule (number), thousand seed weight (g), seed yield (kg/da). The results; revealed that the average plant height ranged from 39.76 to 54.33 cm, the number of branchers per plant, ranged from 6.22 to 6.35, the number of capsules per plant ranged from 13.43 to 14.88, the number of seed per capsule ranged from 98.56 to 104.00, thousand seed weight varied between 2.50 and 3.11 g, seed yield ranged from 135.26 to 135.41 kg/da. Statistically significant differences (p<0.01) were observed for all examined characteristics. Based on the two-year results the application of chicken manure at 300 kg/da was identified as the most effective treatment, significantly enhancing plant height, capsule number and thousand seed weight. This finding reveals that the use of organic fertilizer in black cumin cultivation is an important alternative for farmers who want to both increase yield and prefer a natural production method.

The development of technology and the modernization of electronic equipment along with the progress of the times has caused fundamental changes in human life, where humans now need everything that is completely automatic, practical and effective. It's not only humans who need this practical technology, animals also need this technological equipment to survive. The magpie bird population is an important thing that must be considered, because the large amount of tree felling in the magpie bird's habitat makes it difficult for magpie birds to breed in their habitat. To restore the magpie bird population, now many people are starting to breed magpie birds in their homes to resemble their habitat in the forest, but breeding magpie birds is very difficult. To overcome this problem, it is necessary to design a temperature control device in an IoT-based incubator that can make it easier for magpie bird breeders to regulate the temperature and can monitor the temperature in the incubator via cellphone, so that the magpie chicks that have been separated from their parents can grow well without any problems. physical disabilities or dead magpie chicks so that the magpie bird population can increase.

Trust in Automated Writing Evaluation (AWE): Multiple case study on feedback engagement and literacy
Authors: Drajati Nur Arifah , Handayani Anis
Published: January 2025

Artificial Intelligence (AI) for educational purposes has recently been a research interest. Specifically for academic writing, AI-based feedback, often called automated writing evaluation (AWE), is an essential aspect to support students’ writing. However, despite its popularity, the trust in AWE, which potentially contributes to the students’ writing improvement, has been explored on a limited basis. Hence, this multiple case study attempts to examine the trust in AWE and how this trust influences feedback engagement and literacy. Of 42 students joining a writing class, a total of 4 undergraduate students were involved to explore this issue. Considering the Indonesian government's policy to conduct online learning amidst the COVID-19 pandemic era, classroom observation, stimulated recalls, and semi-structured interviews were conducted virtually via Zoom meetings to gather the data. Results show that the students' trust in AWE varied, indicated by their varied responses to AWE. Furthermore, their trust in AWE only affects the behavioral aspect, excluding the cognitive and affective aspects. Meanwhile, in feedback literacy, their trust only affected the aspect of appreciating the feedback. These findings imply that educators should pay interest to students' trust in AWE since it, in some ways, influences improvement of their feedback engagement and literacy.

In addition to acquiring language skills, English students need to develop character to become responsible global citizens. Learning materials play a crucial role in building students’ competencies, making it essential to integrate character education (CE) into English language teaching (ELT) materials. This study aims to develop valid and reliable survey instruments to collect data on students’ needs for designing CE-integrated materials. Using the MEASURE approach, the instrument framework is based on ELT and CE theories. A pilot survey was conducted, and Cronbach’s Alpha and Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) were used to ensure reliability and validity. The results confirm the instrument’s suitability for larger-scale application to assess students’ needs for CE in classrooms. Researchers and educators can use this tool to gain insights into student expectations and gaps in CE integration. Future research is recommended to test the instrument at different educational levels and to develop complementary instruments capturing teachers’ perspectives to further enhance the integration of CE in ELT.
Structural and transport properties of doped CuI
Authors:   , Markwitz Martin
Published: January 2025

Transparent thermoelectric materials are a group of promising wide band gap semiconductors in which their synergy of intrinsic properties can be used for room temperature energy harvesting. Currently, however, the leading thermoelectric materials are made of toxic and rare constituents, ultimately limiting their scalability. Copper(I) iodide, CuI, is a promising p-type transparent thermoelectric semiconductor that has the potential to overcome these limitations. CuI possesses a wide band gap and can be p-type doped intrinsically with copper vacancies, and extrinsically with chalcogenides, providing it with a unique combination of high transparency, electrical conductivity, and Seebeck coefficient. Because of these factors, it is the leading p-type compound for use in transparent thermoelectric generators and as an electrode for a plethora of optoelectronic applications.

It is the combination of the band structure, point defects, and carrier scattering processes within CuI that are the cause for its useful properties, and therefore, technological applicability. Understanding these processes will lead to improvements over its current limitations, which centrally rests in its still-moderate electrical conductivity. This work found that the adverse coupling between transport properties can be overcome by nanostructuring with noble gas ion implantation, while it was also found that oxygen and tellurium do not provide significant improvements for the electrical conductivity of CuI when already heavily-doped with copper vacancies.

Violence against women and members of the family group is a prevalent problem in Peru, with thousands of cases reported annually. This article questions whether the current regulations, based on the principle of legality, are the appropriate solution to address this violence at its roots. It is proposed to consider the principle of opportunity as an alternative solution, highlighting the importance of protecting human dignity and the physical and emotional integrity of people, as well as the family unit. It is argued that the application of the principle of opportunity in cases of minor offenses could effectively protect the family, by allowing the injured party to decide on the continuation of the criminal process. This is aligned with the principle of minimum intervention of criminal law and seeks to promote a coherent criminal system that prioritizes the prevention of violence and promotes the strengthening of the family institution. The article advocates the application of the principle of opportunity in the protection of the family, as long as certain requirements are met.
