Introduction: Timely and quality antenatal care is a crucial determinant towards the prevention of maternal mortality, which is a significant developmental goal for developing countries, which contributes to more than 99% of maternal deaths worldwide. However, the lack of equitable access to quality ANC is a major challenge in resource-limited settings, particularly in developing countries like India. Objectives: To assess the utilization rates of antenatal care services among antenatal women and postnatal women and to determine the factors responsible forunder or non-utilization of antenatal care services (ANC). Method: The present study was conducted for a period offour months among antenatal and postnatal women in a rural area of South India. All antenatal and postnatal women except those who were not willing to participate and those who had MTP/abortion during the present pregnancy were included for the study. A pre tested semi structured questionnaire was used for collecting information regarding ANC utilization. Data was entered in Microsoft Excel and analyzed for descriptive and inferential statistics. Results: A total of 175 (125 antenatal and 50 postnatal) women were interviewed. Among them, 90.3% (92% antenatal and 86% postnatal) women had completely utilized ANC services. Among the postnatal women, those who had completely utilized ANC services, 11.6% had complications at the time of their delivery and those who had incompletely utilized ANC services, 57.1% had complications.The difference was found to be statistically significant (p<0.05).Only 87.4% women were covered in home visits and 28.6% of them were not given any prenatal advice.IFA tablets were taken adequately only by 57.7% women. Conclusion: The present study revealed that most of the women were aware about the antenatal services available and had registered their pregnancy early. Td immunization was done at right time. However antenatal home visits were not effectively implemented.

Authors: Kristy Ika Setiani , Theresia Siwi Ikaristi Maria , Aryu Scholastica Fina
Published: October 2023

community immunity or heard Indonesia, Indonesia has promoted a COVID-19 vaccination program for the entire community. The Special Region of Yogyakarta Province is one of the provinces that implements vaccination programs intensively for the community with a high level of community willingness to participate in this vaccination program. The willingness to participate in this vaccination program is a form of a person's behavior towards the health problems faced, and this can be seen with the nursing theory, namely the Health Belief Model which assesses a person's perception to make behavioral changes following the vaccination program. The purpose of the study is to analyze the factors in the Health Belief Model nursing theory on people's willingness to participate in the COVID-19 vaccination program. The research method is quantitative with a sample of 92 respondents, the total population of Dusun Sumberan who have been vaccinated against COVID-19 doses 1 and 2. The results show that people's willingness to participate in the COVID-19 vaccination program is influenced by perceptions of the potential severity of COVID-19 disease (p = 0.73), and the benefit factor of receiving COVID-19 vaccination (p = 0.70). Meanwhile, the factors that do not affect the community's willingness are the susceptibility or ease of contracting COVID-19 (p = 0.50), the obstacle factor in participating in the vaccination program (p = 0.50), and the motivational factor in participating in the vaccination program (p = 0.50). Conclusion: The Health Belief Model is a theory that can be the base to influence people to be willing to participate in the COVID-19 vaccination program. These findings can be used to provide education to the public about the importance of participating in the vaccination program, and reduce the public doubts about COVID-19, therefore vaccine coverage increases and the herd immunity occurs in Indonesia.

An Analysis of Racism in Uncle Tom's Cabin from the Marxism Perspective
Authors: Jingsai Ryan
Published: October 2023

Uncle Tom's Cabin is a novel that reflects the cruelty and inhumanity of the slave system. In the novel, Harriet Beecher Stowe created scenes of real artistic power and that her analysis of the capitalistic elements of the slave system were remarkably astute. The racism depicted in this novel is, on the surface, the inhuman oppression and exploitation of black slaves by slave owners. While on the deep level, it is the exploitation and oppression of the proletariat by the bourgeoisie, and this exploitation is a major means for the bourgeoisie to extract the surplus value of working workers. Starting from a Marxism perspective, this article analyzes the economic interests and class relationships behind slavery in the novel, studies the relationship between racism, socio-economic structure, and class contradictions, and explores how racism interweaves with economic interests and becomes a tool of class oppression.  While the specter of racism still lingers in American society today, the paper tries to figure out the complexity of racial issues in the United States, thus providing more comprehensive thinking and methods for eliminating racism and inequality in the future.

Prawosławni ojcowie katolickiego narodu. Wizerunek carów w polskim kaznodziejstwie lat 1815-1914
Authors: Knapik Joanna
Published: October 2023

W Królestwie Polskim po 1815 r., które było częścią Cesarstwa Rosyjskiego, polskie duchowieństwo katolickie stanęło przed problemem określenia swojego stosunku do cara. Fakt, że był jednocześnie najwyższym urzędnikiem cywilnym (choć państwa prawosławnego) i nikczemnym naczelnym agentem rozbiorów Polski, stwarzał sytuację pełną dylematów moralnych i politycznych. Sposoby radzenia sobie z nimi można prześledzić we współczesnych kazaniach. Ponieważ ambona pozostawała ważną opiniotwórczą instytucją, można się spodziewać, że analiza nawiązań politycznych i tonu kazań dostarczy cennego wglądu w stosunek polskiego społeczeństwa do cara. Obraz monarchii rosyjskiej w polskich kazaniach na przestrzeni XIX wieku ulegał znacznym zmianom. Jednak nasze źródła wskazują, że większość duchowieństwa preferowała bierny opór i trzymała politykę z dala od ambony. Do takiego postępowania zachęcali ich biskupi, którzy nieustannie podkreślali katechetyczne priorytety przepowiadania.

Życie religijne w Wadowicach 1918-1939
Authors: Gil Czesław
Published: October 2023

Wybór Karola Wojtyły, mieszkańca Wadowic, na najwyższą godność w Kościele katolickim, wywołał falę zainteresowania historią tego mało znanego miasteczka. Zrozumiałe, że większość tego zainteresowania koncentrowała się na latach międzywojennych. Wśród opracowań naukowych dotyczących tego okresu godne podziwu miejsce zajmują dzieje wadowickich szkół i wadowickiego cmentarza autorstwa Gustawa Studnickiego. Wspomnienia współczesnych Papieżowi wniosły też wiele do naszej wiedzy o różnych aspektach życia Wadowic w latach 1918-1939, zwłaszcza o życiu kulturalnym i religijnym miasta. Jednak pomimo wszystkich cennych spostrzeżeń te osobiste relacje nie dają nam pełnego obrazu życia religijnego  Wadowic w latach formacyjnych Jana Pawła II. Niniejszy artykuł jest próbą wypełnienia tej luki. W celu jej napisania autorka przeszukała bogate zbiory miejscowego archiwum parafialnego, archiwum klasztoru Karmelitów Bosych, współczesną prasę katolicką oraz wspomniane wcześniej wspomnienia. Wśród materiałów archiwalnych największe znaczenie mają ogłoszenia duszpasterskie z kościoła parafialnego, kronika konwentualna oraz zachowane oficjalne metryki związków i bractw wyznaniowych. W panoramicznym szkicu życia religijnego Wadowic autor dokonuje przeglądu kościołów i kapliczek miasta; duchowieństwo parafialne i zakonnicy; kształtowanie chrześcijańskiej formacji charakteru od jej początkowej fazy w w domu rodzinnym, poprzez katechezę (katechizm), słuchanie kazań, czytanie książek i czasopism religijnych; uczestnictwo w tajemnicach wiary w cyklu roku liturgicznego; publiczne wyrażanie wiary w pielgrzymkach i procesjach religijnych; duszpasterstwo w szpitalach, więzieniach i wojsku; działalność formacyjna i charytatywna tercjarzy, bractw i stowarzyszeń religijnych; życie religijne wadowickich Żydów; wreszcie różne formy chrześcijańskiej dobroczynności, które niosły pomoc biednym i potrzebującym, najpierw w następstwie I wojny światowej, a następnie w czasie wielkiego kryzysu gospodarczego początku lat trzydziestych.
Dr. Ambedkar’s Thoughts on Nationalism
Authors: Pandey Manish Kr.
Published: October 2023

The psychological concept of nationalism establishes a sense of fraternity in the society on cultural, ethnic, racial, religious and linguistic basis. One of the nation builders of modern India, Dr. Bhim Rao Ambedkar coined a narrative of Nationalism about freedom of India from social inequality and untouchability. He talked about freedom of India from social inequality and untouchability. This could be understood as a subaltern narrative about the upliftment of downtrodden, deprived and marginalised sections of the society; the section that did not have any participation in public life of colonial India. In this research paper, we will study the various aspects of Dr. Ambedkar's nationalism, in which he firmly stated that without emancipation of deprived people (Dalits), Indian freedom struggle was not deemed to be complete. He has presented the concept of practical nationalism in contrast to western and Indian extremist concepts, some aspects of which we will discuss in this article.

Semantic adaptation of germanisms in the conceptual field: Sports, entertainment and games
Authors: Burnić Hatidže
Published: October 2023

Semantic adaptation refers to the process of adjusting the meaning of a foreign word to the linguistic system of the recipient. When a word is "borrowed" from a foreign language, its original meaning may be lost or changed to better fit the new linguistic environment. This usually happens through prolonged use of the word in the target language, during which a new connotation of the word may gradually develop. In this study, the semantic adaptation of German-origin words in the Bosnian language system refers to the adjustment of the meanings of words integrated into the Bosnian language. Specifically, we examine how German-origin words related to sports and games are adapted to the Bosnian language system and what changes in their semantics are noticed after integration into the Bosnian language. This paper will also analyze the prevalence of German words in the field of sports and games and investigate how often they are used in the Bosnian language. By combining the analysis of semantic adaptation of words and research on the frequency of word usage in the Bosnian language, this paper will provide insight into the influence of the German language on the Bosnian language in the field of sports and games.

Striving for achievement is in the nature of every individual, because with each new achievement, whether easier or more difficult, the individual prepares for new challenges in life. At the same time, in order to achieve a certain achievement, the individual also believes that he will receive an appropriate reward for his work, i.e. he believes in the justice of the society that surrounds him. The aim of this research was to determine whether there is a connection between the pursuit of achievement and belief in a just world. 246 respondents, student population from Mostar, Zenica and Bihać participated in the research. The questionnaires used in this research were: the scale of striving for achievement and the scale of belief in a just world, along with certain questions of a sociodemographic nature. The obtained results showed that there is a statistically significant correlation between striving for achievement and belief in a just world, but it is very weak. Then, the findings show us that there is a statistically significant difference in the striving for achievement with regard to gender. Namely, male respondents (M= 34.43) showed a greater desire for achievement than female respondents (M=29.76). In contrast to the striving for achievement, there is no statistically significant difference with regard to gender in the belief in a just world scale (0.643>0.05). Finally, the results were obtained that showed that there is no statistically significant difference in the striving for achievement (0.606>0.05) and belief in a just world (0.648) with regard to the most common assessment of students.

Style-linguistic characteristics of title in Bosnia and Herzegovina press
Authors: Bajrić Amela
Published: October 2023

It seems completely impossible today to imagine life without mass media. The development of modern technologies has made mass media available to everyone. Mass media, in our case the press, sometimes try to interest and excite their users with their sensational headlines, sometimes make them think, and sometimes even entertain. However, it is very important to keep in mind that each medium shapes the message according to its own language, and an integral part of the languages of the mass media are usually different stylistic and linguistic means. Following earlier analyses of journalistic style, this paper will offer a stylistic-linguistic analysis exclusively of titles, as important and recognizable features of journalistic style, whose task is to be particularly effective in provoking the reader's attention and therefore can appear in the form of rhetorical questions, phrases, already established journalistic templates, etc. , which reflects their expressiveness. In addition, the analysis of the headlines of daily newspapers from the territory of bosnia and herzegovina (osloboenje, nezavisne novine and dnevni list) confirmed that on the phoneticphonological level, for example, there is a difference in writing foreign names, i. E. Names of clubs, awards, proper names, etc. Among these three newspapers, that on the morphological plan, verbs are most often used in the present and future, that the superlative forms of adjectives are often represented, that syntaxic, lexical-semantic figures are used that give the title a stronger, stylistically colored meaning - elliptical sentences, metaphor , metonymy with, of course, an unavoidable lexicon of foreign origin where anglicisms and latinisms dominate, along with some words of oriental origin, and among the dominant functions of the titles are referential (informative), popularistic, expressive and aesthetic.
Language and style characteristics of Branko Ćopić's Work "The donkey years"
Authors: Merzić Sanja
Published: October 2023

Subject of analysis are linguistic and stylistic characteristics of a novel „Magareće godine“ by Branko Ćopić. Published in 1960. this novel presents a story of growing up, friendship, first love, education and mischiefs of a group of children. Analysis was conducted on the level of phonostylistic, morphostylistic, lexicostylistic and semantostylistic. On the level of phonostylistic, stylistic figures of subtraction (syncope and apocope) and adjunction (paragogue) were detected. These figures were used in order to depict characters thoroughly and they indicate on local, mostly provincial and jargon use of language. On the level of morphostylistic very common and specific is use of aorist. Although this verb tense could be substituted with perfect tense, aorist is much more stylistically expressive. Ćopić uses this tense for fast change of actions; for desplaying sudden and lively occurences, as well as at the end or the beggining of direct speech. On the level of lexicostylistic very common is the use of deminutives, augmentatives, exclamations and imitative words. Having in mind, that this literary work is part of literature for children, use of expressive lexic has a function of expressing what is dear, scary, funny or strange to children, or what is small or big. Also, this level of analysis is typical by its use of many nicknames, which is again specific for works from the area of literature for children. Nickanames are created by shortening names and last names, and are also based on physical characteristics or behaviour of its carrier. They mostly have positive meaning, but those of negative meaning are also present. Among lexic and syntactic figures very common is the use of anaphora, rhetorical question, aposiopesis, ellipsis, accumulation (and its varieties), and epizeuxis. On the level of semantostylistic simile is a very common figure. It is used to make expression more lively and to make abstract terms more concrete. Its common use in this litraray work is in order to create humoristic effect. Except this figure, very common is the figure hyperbole. Using semantic figures, together with ellipsis and epizeuxis, Ćopić presents and revives the manner how children speak, and makes this literary work close to those that are intended to read it. Linguostylistic analysis of Ćopić's work „Magareće godine“ has detected that this literary work is abundant is means of expressive lexic, lexic, syntactic and semantic figures, types of aorist and phonetic and phonological figures of substraction and adjunction.
Methodological models of the study of Bosnia and Herzegovina literature through intracultural processes
Authors: Džafić Šeherzada
Published: October 2023

Given its plural nature, Bosnian literature implies multiple layers and articulates internal processes that are significantly different from external ones, generating an intracultural profile that challenges a specific, different, and at the same time, unique approach to its study. Relying on the general methodology of the study of literature and on the history of the study of Bosnian literature, with a methodological foundation in the eclecticism of cultural studies and intercultural literature, the work tries to point out the possibilities of studying Bosnian literature through intracultural processes.
Chronotope of modern fairy tale
Authors: Pečenković Vildana
Published: October 2023

One of the specifics of the oral fairy tale is its chronotope, which Vladimir Propp defined as onedimensional, in which space and time are indefinite, and the world of the miraculous and the real coexist in the same dimension of space and time. The indeterminacy of time and space in fairy tales has remained until today, however, in contemporary fairy tales, outlines of concrete space and time appear more and more often, so that the author's fairy tales change the chronotope in accordance with contemporary social circumstances. Chronotopes of a certain city, village, contemporary life and time appear, so it can be concluded that the change of chronotope in fairy tales is one of the specificities of contemporary fairy tales. The concretization of the chronotope of the fairy tale leads to the violation of one-dimensionality, which brings the narrative of the contemporary fairy tale much closer to a fantastic story. Examining the chronotopes in contemporary fairy tales, two ways of forming the narrative can be observed: retaining the chronotope of the oral fairy tale and the formation of a contemporary chronotope that is close to fantasy.

Published: October 2023

Monitoring, evaluation and assessment of students' knowledge are inseparable processes that subject teachers apply almost daily in their educational work. Experiences from teaching practice point to the fact that the evaluation of student achievements is one of the most sensitive areas of a teacher's work. The processes of assessment, evaluation and reporting on student achievements are often in the focus of the professional public and as such are the subject of numerous discussions and misunderstandings. The biggest shortcomings of the evaluation system in the area of Herzegovina-Neretva Canton at the level of primary education are the absence of clear criteria according to which student achievements and the desired level of objectivity are evaluated, which leads to encouraging negative patterns of motivation and learning among students.
Evaluating students in class is a complex process, and in that process teachers can help themselves and students only if they create an effective system of recording, monitoring and checking students’ knowledge and skills within their subject. The paper describes in detail the essential elements of the evaluation process, namely evaluation methods, sources used in the evaluation process, evaluation and assessment criteria. This paper presents the knowledge and thoughts of the authors, through clear presentations of concrete examples for improving the process of monitoring, checking and evaluating students’ knowledge in the teaching of Biology, Bosnian language and literature, and English language, based on modern reform requirements.
Narrative re/defining of the cultural identity of Bosnia and Herzegovina in the literature of the Bosnia and Herzegovina diaspora
Authors: Ičanović Azra
Published: October 2023

Starting from the hypothesis that spatial-cultural displacement necessarily conditions the deconstruction of cultural identity, the work, based on the theoretical assumptions of imagology and intercultural hermeneutics, considers (inter)cultural aspects of the narrative de/construction of the cultural identity of Bosnia and Herzegovina in the literature of the Bosnian diaspora. Finding examples in the novels "The Book of My Lives" and "My Parents: An Introduction" by Aleksandar Hemon, the novel "Nowhere, out of nowhere" by Bekim Sejranović and the collection of stories "Well, to start over" by Cecilija Toskić, the work tries to point out the spatial-cultural displacement and intercultural processes not only as factors of crosscultural adaptation, acculturation and assimilation, but also as factors that enable objective perception and narrative representation of Bosnian cultural identity. The paper concludes that the experience of spatialcultural displacement, represented in the above-mentioned works, results in the narrative construction of hybrid identities squeezed between two (or more) cultures, and that precisely this position of (non)belonging will enable a narrative re/definition of the cultural identity of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
