Authors: Khairun Nisa Siti , Abdurrahman Zulkarnain
Published: August 2023

Studi ini mengungkapkan data mengenai bagaimana pola pengasuhan orang tua memengaruhi praktik ibadah sholat anak-anak. Metode penelitian deskriptif kualitatif dengan melibatkan sepuluh orang tua sebagai partisipan. Teknik pengumpulan data menggunakan observasi, wawancara dan dokumentasi. Teknik analisis data menggunakan model Milles dan Huberman. Temuan penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pola pengasuhan orang tua terhadap praktik ibadah sholat anak-anak memiliki variasi yang signifikan. Beberapa orang tua menerapkan pola pengasuhan otoriter, memaksa anak-anak untuk melaksanakan sholat tanpa memberikan penjelasan atau pemahaman yang memadai. Akibatnya, anak-anak merasa kurang memiliki keterlibatan dalam membuat keputusan terkait ibadah sholat dan lebih cenderung melaksanakannya karena merasa terpaksa. Namun, mayoritas orang tua menerapkan pola pengasuhan demokratis. Mereka memberikan pengertian dan penjelasan yang memadai kepada anak-anak tentang makna sholat serta membangun komunikasi yang baik dengan mereka. Pendekatan pengasuhan demokratis ini memberi kesempatan pada anak-anak untuk merasa bertanggung jawab atas pelaksanaan ibadah sholat. Dengan demikian, anak-anak dapat lebih memahami arti penting ibadah sholat dan lebih termotivasi untuk melaksanakannya dengan sukarela. Penelitian ini memberikan gambaran tentang bagaimana pola asuh orang tua dapat mempengaruhi pelaksanaan ibadah sholat anak. Hasilnya bisa memberikan panduan bagi orang tua dan mungkin juga di tempat lain, untuk memahami bagaimana mendekati dan mendukung anak-anak dalam menjalankan ibadah sholat dengan baik.

Authors: Stoyanov Nikolay , Pandelova Antonia , Georgiev Tzanko , Kalapchiiska Julia , Dzhudzhev Bozhidar
Published: August 2023

Air pollution is one of the serious environmental problems. The high concentrations of particulate matter can have a serious impact over human health and ecosystems, especially in highly urbanized areas. In this regard, the present study employs a combined ARIMA-Multiple Linear Regression modelling approach for forecasting particulate matter content. The capital city of Bulgaria is used as case study. A regression analysis techniques are used to study the relationship between particulate matter concentration and basic meteorological variables – air temperature, solar radiation, wind speed, wind direction, atmospheric pressure. The adequacy of the models has been proven by examining the behavior of the residues. The synthesized time series model can be used for forecasting, monitoring and controlling the air quality conditions. All analyzes and calculations were performed with statistical software STATGRAPHICS.
On subpolygroup commutativity degree of finite polygroups
Authors: Al Tahan Madeleine , Hoskova-Mayerova Sarka , Davvaz B. , Sonea A.
Published: August 2023

Probabilistic group theory is concerned with the probability of group elements or group subgroups satisfying certain conditions. On the other hand, a polygroup is a generalization of a group and a special case of a hypergroup. This paper generalizes probabilistic group theory to probabilistic polygroup theory. In this regard, we extend the concept of the subgroup commutativity degree of a finite group to the subpolygroup commutativity degree of a finite polygroup $ P $. The latter measures the probability of two random subpolygroups $ H, K $ of $ P $ commuting (i.e., $ HK = KH $). First, using the subgroup commutativity table and the subpolygroup commutativity table, we present some results related to the new defined concept for groups and for polygroups. We then consider the special case of a polygroup associated to a group. We study the subpolygroup lattice and relate this to the subgroup lattice of the base group; this includes deriving an explicit formula for the subpolygroup commutativity degree in terms of the subgroup commutativity degree. Finally, we illustrate our results via non-trivial examples by applying the formulas that we prove to the associated polygroups of some well-known groups such as the dihedral group and the symmetric group.

Published: August 2023

Social media contains useful information about people and society that could help advance research in many different areas of health (e.g. by applying opinion mining, emotion/sentiment analysis and statistical analysis) such as mental health, health surveillance, socio-economic inequality and gender vulnerability. User demographics provide rich information that could help study the subject further. However, user demographics such as gender are considered private and are not freely available. In this study, we propose a model based on transformers to predict the user's gender from their images and tweets. The image-based classification model is trained in two different methods: using the profile image of the user and using various image contents posted by the user on Twitter. For the first method a Twitter gender recognition dataset, publicly available on Kaggle and for the second method the PAN-18 dataset is used. Several transformer models, i.e. vision transformers (ViT), LeViT and Swin Transformer are fine-tuned for both of the image datasets and then compared. Next, different transformer models, namely, bidirectional encoders representations from transformers (BERT), RoBERTa and ELECTRA are fine-tuned to recognize the user's gender by their tweets. This is highly beneficial, because not all users provide an image that indicates their gender. The gender of such users could be detected from their tweets. The significance of the image and text classification models were evaluated using the Mann-Whitney U test. Finally, the combination model improved the accuracy of image and text classification models by 11.73 and 5.26% for the Kaggle dataset and by 8.55 and 9.8% for the PAN-18 dataset, respectively. This shows that the image and text classification models are capable of complementing each other by providing additional information to one another. Our overall multimodal method has an accuracy of 88.11% for the Kaggle and 89.24% for the PAN-18 dataset and outperforms state-of-the-art models. Our work benefits research that critically require user demographic information such as gender to further analyze and study social media content for health-related issues.

Published: August 2023

Fog computing is a paradigm that extends cloud computing capabilities to the network edge. Its foundations lie in understanding the theoretical principles and key concepts driving its development. This includes exploring architectural aspects which facilitate efficient and distributed data processing at the network edge. It involves examining the device and hardware support required for seamless fog computing operations, including edge devices, fog nodes, and network infrastructure. Different deployment approaches such as centralized, distributed, and hierarchical deployments bring their own advantages, limitations, and considerations. Evaluating these strategies and associated metrics aids in informed decision-making for fog infrastructure deployment. Understanding these foundations is crucial for building efficient, scalable, and resource-rich fog computing systems that address challenges in modern computing. This chapter investigates these concepts and highlights the significance of fog computing in enabling low-latency and resource-rich processing in smart infrastructure setups.

With the increased need for technology implementation, educational systems across the world have made various efforts to utilize technology to optimize learning efficacy. With regard to the MENA region, many reforms have been administered in order to effectively digitize education. Pedagogical aspects remain in great need of further investigation. Thus, through a conceptual review of applied pedagogical strategies, this chapter aims to explore issues related to such implementation in the MENA region. As pedagogy varies according to age, teaching environment, and subject, the author aims to explore the theory and practice of Mathematics teaching in online environments. The educational policy also diverges from one country to another, especially in terms of STEM education. The present study is based on a focus on the MENA region context which allows for a better understanding and development of STEM education. Moreover, this review provides issues and challenges to consider for future research and proposes pedagogical modifications to suit the online teaching environments.
STEM in Turkey
Authors: Baytak Ahmet
Published: August 2023

The concept of STEM has gained extensive usage in Turkey after gaining popularity worldwide. The need for improvement in mathematics performance, as indicated by low PISA results, prompted the implementation of math-integrated education models within the Turkish Education System. This chapter aims to outline the system's impact on the implementation of STEM. Notably, the FATIH project has played a crucial role by equipping schools with modern technologies and distributing tablets to students. The contribution of the science centers is discussed. Science centers serve as a promising starting point for fostering STEM studies. However, significant obstacles to the implementation of the STEM model in Turkey lie in the high school entrance and university placement exam systems. These obstacles will be explained in detail within this chapter. Additionally, this section will explore the failures of the STEM approach and provide suggestions for its successful implementation. Moreover, the authors propose exploring the applicability of an Augmented STEM system to further enhance STEM education.

Published: August 2023

In 2021, Cameroon held approximately 26,300 inmates in 84 prisons. The Ministry of Justice manages health services in prisons. Conclusive data concerning health care in prisons are lacking. Herein, we present the results of an assessment of health care provision and delivery in 10 central prisons. We adopted mixed methods, including document review, observations, interviews with the Ministry of Justice and prison facility officials, and inmate focus group discus- sions (FGDs). The 6 building blocks of the World Health Organization's health system framework guided the data collection. Moreover, we collected data on imprisonment conditions. Ministerial authorisation and verbal informed consent were obtained for all activities. There were a total of 17,126 inmates, with the prison populations ranging from 353 inmates to 4,576 inmates. The majority of prisons were char- acterised by huge overcrowding (mean 301%). The 10 central prisons operated infirmaries with insufficient space and equip- ment. Compared with the civilian health sector, the numeric ratio of paramedical personnel/inmates was favourable (1:3.4 vs. 1:0.5 p. 1,000 pop, respectively). Recent admissions were screened for the coronavirus disease 2019, tuberculosis (TB), and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Moreover, the inmates were diagnosed for current pathologies and lesions. For the treatment of chronic diseases and medical emergen- cies, the prison health services bridged service gaps on a case-by-case basis through informal arrangements with the civilian health sector. The service quality control was limited to those performed by the TB and HIV/acquired immune deficiency syndrome control programmes. Health data was collected and transmitted with a multitude of data collection tools, without standardisation and systematic verification. The primarily reported problems comprised the scarcity of resources and the absence of an effective oversight of resource management and service quality performance entailing gover- nance problems. Participants in FDGs esteemed the quality of treatment as poor unless paid for in cash, and denounced severe difficulties for access to care outside the prisons when required. For meeting the standard minimum rules for the treatment of inmates, prison health care in Cameroon should fill the crucial gaps involving imprisonment conditions, access to health services, and accountability. Regarding chronic underfunding, intensifying collaboration with the civil health sector may partially address the problem.
Analysis of impaired kidney function in the community around the Morosi nickel mines
Authors: Tasnim Tasnim , Sunarsih Sunarsih
Published: August 2023

Preliminary studies showed that almost 50% of the people around the Morosi nickel mining industry had very high creatinine levels (26 mmol/l). High creatinine levels indicate impaired kidney function. This study aims to analyze the determinants of high creatinine levels in the urine of people around the Morosi nickel mines. There were 61 participants who were interviewed and urine samples were taken to test their creatinine levels. High levels of creatinine indicate kidney disorders. Measurement of creatinine levels used urine reagent strips 13G. Then it was connected between the condition of water sources, houses, solid and liquid waste management with the participants' creatinine levels with the multinomial regression statistical test. The house condition and liquid waste management had significant association with creatinine levels (P=0.005 and P=0.026, respectively). More than 80% of people lived in houses with good condition and had very low creatinine levels (≤0.9 mmol/l). Most of them had done appropriate liquid waste management (63.9%). However, water sources and solid waste management had no association with creatinine levels (P=0.195 and P=0.130, respectively). The majority of them had used good water sources such as piped and gallon water (80.3%). There were only 19.7% of them who used dug wells and 60.7% who throw their solid waste into the river or burn it. This study concludes that house condition and liquid waste management determine of the high urine‑creatinine levels of people leaving around the Morosi Nickel Mining Industries.

Published: August 2023

Background. Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a collection of cardiovascular risk factors induced by insulin resistance and an inflammatory state that increases the likelihood of developing type 2 diabetes and a variety of cardiovascular disorders.Objective. The study aims to determine the distribution of MetS by diagnostic criteria and family history among adults in Al- Basra province, southern Iraq.Methods. A cross-sectional study was conducted at the Al- Fiaha Specialized Diabetes, Endocrine, and Metabolism Center (FDEMC) from October 2nd, 2022, to May 1st, 2023. Following ethical approval, data was obtained using a pre-tested questionnaire. All patient information was obtained from direct interviews as well as FDEMC’s digital records, which controlled patient data via a Microsoft Access program and an internal network.Results. This study included 476 people, aged 19 to 89. The sample had an equal number of males and females (238). MetS was identified in 247 people in the entire sample using the International Diabetes Federation criteria. The proportion of participants with a family history was as follows: obesity (30.0%), hypertension (44.1%), diabetes mellitus (46.6%), and cardiovascular disease (9.3%). The diagnostic criteria for MetS were as follows: high wc (94.3%), elevated glucose (69.6%), reduced highdensity lipoprotein (HDL) (80.2%), elevated TG (40.5%), and hypertension (71.7%). Controlled on glycemic status (21.1%), hypertension (61.9%), and lipids (44.1%).Conclusion. Large wc, reduced HDL, and family histories of obesity, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, or cardiovascular disease are the most important risk factors for MetS. Participants with MetS have difficulties controlling their blood sugar, but they regulate the other MetS components.
Why Keep it a Secret? Implications of Disclosure of a Diagnosis of Autism for Children and Families
Authors: Malhi Prahbhjot , Singhi Pratibha D
Published: August 2023

There is a paucity of research on the personal experiences of individuals regarding disclosure of diagnosis of autism in India. In this case report, we share the journey of a 19-year-old male, who learned about his high functioning autism diagnosis when he was diagnosed at 8 years of age, to highlight how timely disclosure can lead to acceptance and growth. Management focused on working with the child's areas of strengths rather than deficits. The parents were supportive and readily shared his diagnosis with family and school authorities. They ascribed to the neurodiversity view and encouraged their son to take pride in being who he was and not try to be like his nonautistic peers. The latest follow-up was done at age 19 and the child was reported to be well adjusted, had excelled in his schoolwork, and aspired for a career in computer animation. Efforts to focus on the neurodiversity paradigm and reducing negative beliefs should also be targeted to reduce the stigma of autism and increase its acceptance among families and the community.
Determinants of periodic health examination uptake among adults in Al-Jouf Region, Saudi Arabia
Authors: Alzahrani Ali M. , Felix Holly C. , Al-Etesh Nashmi S.
Published: August 2023

BACKGROUND:

Periodic Health Examinations (PHEs) typically occur annually and provide an important opportunity for providers to screen their patients for undiagnosed health conditions and monitor existing conditions, such as diabetes and hypertension. Unfortunately, PHEs are reported to be low in Saudi Arabia. This study’s aim was to assess the regular uptake of PHEs by adults residing in Al-Jouf region, Saudi Arabia.

MATERIALS AND METHODS:

A cross-sectional survey was conducted among adults (aged ≥ 20 years) residing in five communities in the Al-Jouf Region on sociodemographic characteristics, self-reported chronic conditions, knowledge of PHEs, and their regular uptake. Chi-square tests and multivariate logistic regression analysis were performed to determine the factors associated with regular uptake of PHEs.

RESULTS:

A total of 624 participants completed the survey questionnaire. Of the participants, 27.7% reported a regular uptake of PHEs. The odds of regular uptake of PHEs were higher among older respondents (odds ratio [OR] =1.98; P = 0.002), those who reported that they had diabetes (OR = 3.25; P < 0.001), hypertension (OR = 4.11; P = 0.001), hyperlipidemia (OR = 2.66; P = 0.003), and those with a higher PHEs knowledge score (OR = 1.35; P < 0.001). However, the odds regular uptake of PHEs among respondents residing in the three governorates and Skaka city were significantly lower (OR = 0.27; P = 0.001 and OR = 0.30; P = 0.002, respectively) than their counterparts.

CONCLUSION:

Low rates of PHEs uptake were observed among the survey participants in the Al-Jouf Region of Saudi Arabia. The characteristics of individuals associated with low uptake of PHEs were identified. Tailored interventions, such as the use of community health workers and clinic communications, could target these individuals to increase the uptake of PHEs.

Análisis de la cobertura y del discurso de los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible y la Agenda 2030 en la prensa digital española (2015-2022)
Authors: López-Carrión Alberto E. , Martí-Sánchez Myriam
Published: August 2023

Introducción: Esta investigación ofrece una visión longitudinal de la cobertura, así como las principales características del discurso sobre los ODS y la Agenda 2030 de Naciones Unidas, después de analizar los diez periódicos digitales con más audiencia de España. Metodología: Se ha realizado una aproximación cuantitativa y descriptiva de las noticias que hacen mención a esta temática, para después efectuar un análisis interpretativo del contenido de los textos completos y, finalmente, aplicar un análisis semántico y de minería de textos. Resultados: Se observa que las noticias que citan este asunto han aumentado más de un 1000%, fijando el año 2020 como un punto de inflexión a partir del cual la cobertura de este tema se ha generalizado en la agenda mediática. Pese a este incremento, los contenidos informativos con protagonismo de los ODS y la Agenda 2030 ha ido decreciendo hasta niveles mínimos. En cuanto al discurso, los resultados revelan que los términos que más se asocian a ‘ODS_Agenda2030’ son ‘ONU’, gobierno’, ‘políticas’ y ‘país’. Los tres primeros aparecen también en el análisis asociativo. Además, se identifican cuatro grupos temáticos con términos que se relacionan con: ‘Problemas globales’, ‘ONU’, ‘Institucional’ y ‘Objetivos y Metas de los ODS’. Discusión: Los datos muestran que, pese al aumento del número de noticias, el protagonismo que tiene esta iniciativa ha sido inversamente proporcional. Conclusiones: Los contenidos sobre el plan de la ONU dan una mayor difusión al cumplimiento por parte de los gobiernos e instituciones que al propio contenido de los objetivos.

Geophysical and geological signatures of an unknown fault in the historic center of Messina (Sicily, south Italy)
Authors: Pino Paolo , Scolaro Silvia , Torre Antonino , D'Amico Sebastiano , Neri Giancarlo , Presti Debora
Published: August 2023

Analysis of seismic noise measurements shows a clear change of the Site Resonant Frequency across a NW-SE segment cutting the historic center of the town of Messina. This change indicates strong lateral heterogeneity of the sediment cover going from southwest to northeast across the segment and suggests the existence of a fault never reported by previous investigators, oriented differently from the NNE-SSW main structural system which is widely believed to have produced the magnitude 7.1 earthquake of 1908. Additional evidence of such a NW-SE fault has been obtained by surface geology and analysis of morphological and Digital Terrain Model data. Geologic observations clearly indicate normal faulting but are not able to identify eventual strike-slip components. Activity of this fault is documented at least until Middle Pleistocene, with likely prosecution during Upper Pleistocene. The new detected fault requires deeper investigation in the near future for evaluation of its real extent and present dynamics including eventual seismogenic attitude.

Published: August 2023

Os exercícios de hidroginástica para idosos, em sua maioria, têm como objetivo a melhoria da qualidade de vida, incluindo aspectos psicológicos, sociais e biológicos. Além disso, promovem mudanças de forma significativa na marcha, postura, flexibilidade, coordenação motora, percepção corporal, equilíbrio e composição corporal. O presente estudo teve como objetivo analisar os efeitos da hidroginástica na terceira idade. Trata de uma revisão de literatura de cunho qualitativo. Desenvolvido com artigos científicos publicados nas principais bases indexadas como PubMed, Google Academic e SciELO, publicados de 2018 a 2021. Utilizando os descritores: Hidroginástica; idosos; benefícios saúde; exercícios físicos, agrupados pelo modulador Booleano ¨and¨. Uma leitura seletiva foi realizada para selecionar as informações mais importantes para o trabalho. A partir dessas buscas, foram selecionados alguns textos que expunham as características importantes acerca da hidroginástica e o impacto dessa prática nos idosos. Por meio da leitura e interpretação do texto selecionado, foi construído o referencial teórico. Foi possível verificar que a literatura encontrada sobre hidroginástica ainda é muito limitada, principalmente considerando a prática de idosos. Faltam pesquisas que investiguem a relação entre os exercícios de hidroginástica e aspectos mais subjetivos da qualidade de vida, como a satisfação com a vida, e pesquisas experimentais que esclareçam as melhores condições para temperatura da água e esforço em idosos. Além disso, mesmo que outras atividades físicas também sejam adequadas aos idosos, a hidroginástica é realizada em grupos e em diferentes ambientes, o que pode proporcionar a este grupo maior motivação para manter a regularidade dos exercícios. Ao final, concluiu-se que a hidroginástica constitui um importante recurso para auxiliar a qualidade de vida e saúde de pessoas idosas.

Authors: Khan Saniya , Chauhan Alok
Published: August 2023

Health is fundamental aspect to the national progress in any sphere. Due to various socio-economic and political factors, there exists a widespread inequality in the distribution of health care facilities in India. The study area Baran district is an outgrowth of Madhya Pradesh's uplands, which are a portion of the Malwa plateau. It consists primarily of low hills and undulating plains. It is the part of South-east region of Rajasthan known as Hadoti. The main objective of this paper is to analyses the spatial variation of health care facilities in the district. The present study is based on statistical data regarding the distribution of different types of health care facilities and family welfare facilities at district hospital, community health centres (CHCs), and primary health centres (PHCs) and Sub-centres. The present study reveals that health care facilities are not equally distributed in all the tehsils of the district. The study also reflects a huge gap across tehsil level in terms of population distribution of health care facilities.
VULNERABILITIES OF CHILD LABOUR MIGRANTS IN RURAL AREA OF DUNGARPUR DISTRICT, RAJASTHAN
Authors: Patidar Savitri
Published: August 2023

The intent of this study is to concentrate on the rising rate of migration among tribal children in the Dungrpur District. Migration of children for labour has been an increasing cause of concern. Both primary and secondary data have been used at the level of villages to highlight the problem at hand. Migration, which accounts of 56 percent of the aggregate income in this area, is the main source of income for households.

Do the Choices of Family Business CEOs Affect Investment Decisions?

Abstract

Family firms are a common organizational form in emerging economies. Almost 80% of firms are controlled by families and 40% of them are controlled by founder CEOs in Taiwan. Thus, family founders play an important role in complex financial decisions. In addition, the average age of family CEOs is around 60 years old, so now is a big time for the succeeding generation to make the right decisions leading to a successful family business. However, prior studies have contradictory conclusions about the relationship between family firms and investment policies. The sample is based on data from Taiwan family firms for whom the data was manually collected on annul reporting over a period of 2009-2015. Unlike the expectation of the entrenchment effect, we find that both family founder and family descendant CEOs have a propensity to undertake efficient investment decisions, which supports the socioemotional wealth perspective.
