Authors:   Korean Association For Learner-Centered Curriculum And Instruction, Kim HuiYoung , Jang Hansori
Published: October 2023

Objectives This study aimed to explore professional counselor teachers' perceptions of children's rights and abuse.
Methods A methodological framework was constructed by utilizing the Consensual Qualitative Research, which is said to be suitable for in-depth analysis with participants who have experienced a specific phenomenon accord-ing to the purpose of this study. Interviews were conducted with 7 professional counselor teachers, and the re-sults were analyzed by 3 researchers.
Results As a result of the analysis, 5 domains, 10 categories, and 31 subcategories were derived, and the main research results are as follows. First, the rights perceived by professional counselor teachers as most important were survival, protection, and developmental rights. Second, the types of child abuse that professional counselor teachers most frequently encountered were emotional abuse, physical abuse, and neglect, in that order. Third, when professional counselor teachers confronted violations of child rights and instances of abuse, their strategies involved securing statements and collecting evidence to decide on whether to report, along with continuous counseling, reporting to administrators, abuse personnel, and homeroom teachers, and conducting meetings. Fourth, the factors influencing the response of professional counselor teachers to violations of child rights and in-stances of abuse were categorized into occupational factors and factors influencing reporting. Fifth, the support measures for effective intervention in cases of child rights violations and abuse were divided into social efforts, including education for parents and teachers, and individual efforts, such as identifying and managing cases of vi-olation and abuse of children's rights.
Conclusions The conclusions so far are significant in that we have taken an in-depth look at the experiences of professional counselor teachers in the cases of child rights violations and abuse at school. It is expected to serve as basic data for establishing a support system for effective intervention in the event of child rights violations and child abuse cases at school sites in the future.

Authors:   Korean Association For Learner-Centered Curriculum And Instruction, Ko Jeongyeon
Published: October 2023

Objectives This study was attempted to identify and systematically understand how nursing students perceive the principles of biomedical ethics.
Methods Through an open questionnaire, first-year nursing students who took a biomedical ethics lecture for one semester were asked to choose the most important principle among the four principles of biomedical ethics and write the rationale for it. A total of 99 subjects were analyzed using the content analysis method.
Results Among the four biomedical ethics principles, the importance distribution was shown in the order of prin-ciple of respect for autonomy(45.5%), principle of nonmaleficence(29.3%), principle of beneficence(20.2%), and principle of justice(5.0%), and 14 themes and 42 statements supporting the basis were revealed. There were a total of 15 statements on the principle of respect for autonomy, and 4 themes were included: inherent rights, right to choose, right to know, and right to be respected(45.5%). There were a total of 15 statements on the principle of nonmaleficence, including 4 themes: avoiding harm, minimizing suffering, basic duties, and licensing as a nurse(29.3%). There were a total of 9 statements on the principle of beneficence, and 4 themes were included: the role of medical personnel, use of professional knowledge, active help, and human well-being(20.2%). There were a total of 3 statements on the principle of justice, including 2 themes: establishment of standards and fair-ness(5.0%).
Conclusions It was confirmed that the students showed an active attitude to solidify their moral values and to cul-tivate a sense of ethics. In the undergraduate curriculum, not teacher-centered lectures, but learner-centered bi-oethics education that reflects students' understanding and feedback should be provided.
A Study on Hierarchy of Periodicity in Systemic Functional Linguistics: Focusing on newspaper articles and parliamentary meeting texts related to the Lee-Tae-Won tragedy
Authors:   Korean Association For Learner-Centered Curriculum And Instruction, Han Jeonghan , Heo Seongryeong
Published: October 2023

Objectives The purpose of this study is to explicitly show how the hierarchy of periodicity in Korean texts is ana-lyzed based on Systemic Functional Linguistics.
Methods The hierarchy of periodicity is viewed as having an expanding structure, like the flow of water, which expands into small waves, large waves, and tidal waves. It is explained that when the flow of text expands from clause to paragraph (→ chapter → text), it does not continue in a straight line, but expands like a wave in a circle. Assuming that this hierarchy of periodicity has genre differences, this paper analyzed the text of political news-paper articles related to the ‘Itaewon tragedy’ in written language and the text of parliamentary meeting related to the ‘Itaewon tragedy’ in spoken language.
Results In terms of the hierarchical structure of the periodical, the newspaper article and the meeting showed different characteristics. The newspaper article (Text-I) was relatively well organized and followed the typical hi-erarchical structure of a periodical. In particular, it showed that it faithfully followed the structure of HyperTheme - (Elaboration) - HyperNew, which is necessary to organize paragraphs (paragraphs). It also followed the structure of MacroTheme - (Paragraph) - MacroNew when organizing units larger than paragraphs. The meeting text, on the other hand, shows a weak hierarchy, as the MacroTheme is sometimes omitted, and when organizing para-graphs, the HyperNew following the HyperTheme is omitted before moving on to the next topic, the MacroTheme.
Conclusions This paper introduced the concepts of hierarchy of periodic words and serial word expansion of dis-course as two double-headed wagons for studying discourse meaning. I hope this article to be useful for future research on periodicity in Korean texts of various genres, as it demonstrates how to analyze discourse at the para-graph and text level beyond the analysis of ‘clause’ units, and examines the genre differences between them.
Analysis of the Dunning-Kruger effect and overconfidence bias according to gender and question type of middle school science test
Authors:   Korean Association For Learner-Centered Curriculum And Instruction, Park Kyoungjin , Lee Somi
Published: October 2023

Objectives This study aims to investigate potential gender differences in middle school students' self-assessment of their abilities during academic exam situations. Focusing on the potential emergence of overconfidence bias when predicting their own exam scores, we examined how the Dunning-Kruger effect interacts with an inherent trait-gender, and the illusion of competence based on the type of science exams (multiple-choice/shortanswer questions) as observed in prior research. The objective is to collectively ascertain whether such gender- based distinctions exist.
Methods Individual data were collected through a survey of 2nd-grade students at a coeducational middle school located in Gyeongsangbuk-do, during the week preceding the midterm and final examinations. Utilizing the actual test scores achieved, the study employed t-tests and regression analysis to scrutinize the gender-based distribution of academic performance, the variation in performance between genders across different test types, and the gender-associated dissimilarities in perceptions of competence.
Results The Dunning-Kruger effect, characterized by the illusion of competence, was observed as a negative phenomenon, evidenced by the bias score—a metric reflecting the disparity between actual scores and anticipated scores. Among both male and female students, a positive correlation was established between higher expected scores and higher actual scores. Additionally, a noteworthy negative correlation emerged between actual scores and biased scores, signifying that students achieving higher actual scores exhibited lower biased scores. Specifically, male students demonstrated an overestimation tendency within the ‘low’ and ‘middle’ quartile groups, whereas female students displayed an underestimation tendency within the ‘highest’ quartile group. Expected scores exhibited no dependency on either test type or gender, yet significant effects were discerned for actual scores and bias scores in relation to gender. This confirmed that the magnitude of overestimation was greater among male students than their female counterparts, whereas the extent of underestimation was comparatively less pronounced in female students compared to male students.
Conclusions This study successfully validated the manifestation of the Dunning-Kruger effect based on students' gender. Male students exhibited a propensity for overestimation driven by overconfidence bias, and it was substantiated that this overestimation was more pronounced in short-answer type questions compared to multiple- choice questions, irrespective of gender. Recognizing the inherent gender distinctions among students, it is recommended to propose a self-directed learning approach aimed at enhancing metacognitive abilities. Additionally, future research endeavors should focus on mitigating test-related anxiety factors through follow-up investigations.
The Impact of Occupational Stress, Self-Esteem, and Resilience on Turnover Intention among Nurses in Public Hospitals
Authors:   Korean Association For Learner-Centered Curriculum And Instruction, Oh Mi Hwa , Yoo Yang Gyeong
Published: October 2023

Objectives The purpose of this study was to investigate whether occupational stress, self-esteem, and resilience of public hospital nurses have an impact on their intention to turnover.
Methods A structured questionnaire was administered to 240 nurses who had worked for more than 3 months in three public hospitals in Jeollabuk-do from August 22nd to September 4th, 2022. The questionnaire measured occupational stress, self-esteem, resilience, and turnover intention. The collected data were analyzed using IBM SPSS Statistics 21.0 software to fulfill the research objectives, including frequency, percentage, mean, standard deviation, Independent t-test, one-way ANOVA, Scheffé test, Pearson's Correlation Coefficient, and hierarchical regression analysis as appropriate.
Results Regarding nurses' turnover intention, the study finds that occupational stress has a positive impact, while resilience has a negative impact. These two factors collectively explain 24% of the variance in turnover intention.
Conclusions It can be observed that in the clinical setting of public hospitals, reducing occupational stress and en-hancing nurses' resilience are pressing tasks to diminish turnover intention. Simultaneously devising practical measures for this purpose and implementing them in the practical field emerge as imperative challenges.

Authors:   Korean Association For Learner-Centered Curriculum And Instruction, Jo Ye-jin , Kim Jeong-ryeol
Published: October 2023

Objectives The purposes of this study is to compare deductive and inductive vocabulary instructional effects on 6th graders’ uptakes by investigating the immediate post effects and their intakes (retention) by looking into the delayed post effets.
Methods To this end, two experimental groups of two deductive (53 students) and two inductive (51 students) learning classes are selected out of 10 different classes based on their statistical homogenuity of the pre-test. After instruction, an immediate-post vocabulary test is given to two groups of students to find out the uptakes of the instruction. Three weeks after the immediate post-test, a delayed-post vocabulary test is given to two groups of students to find out the intakes or retention of the instruction.In addition, a quetionnaire on English vocabulary learning experiences and method is surveyed on the students before and after the intruction.
Results The findings of the study is that deductive vocabulary instruction is significatly higher in uptakes, but the deductive group did not retain the significant difference as their intakes. However the pre/post comparison of each instructional group showed that both deductive and inductive learning are effective to 6th grade elementary students. The survey shows that students considers the vocabulary instruction using ChatGPT as positive experiences.
Conclusions Compared to the previous studies, the current study shows a promising prospect on English instruction using ChatGPT to motivate students’ English learning. The current study also provides the feasibility that ChatGPT can facilitate teachers’ feedback on students’ English learning by analizing their errors and difficulties.

Authors:   The Pacific State University, Gareeva I.A.
Published: October 2023

The article examines social problems that have arisen in connection with the COVID-19 pandemic and their impact on changing the population’s usual health strategies. Based on a review of different sources, conclusions are drawn that similar social situations associated with infectious diseases have repeatedly arisen in the society. However, at this stage, heads of the governments and international organizations are included in the decision-making process, and implementation of the decisions concerns the overwhelming number of citizens of the world community. Some decisions are restrictive, and some are coercive. The purpose of this article is to consider the extent to which changes in the social situation affect people’s behavior, their personal life strategies, in particular health strategies, the reasonableness of making individual decisions in relation to health, their assessments of the epidemic situation, and building relationships with social institutions. The empirical base is the data of our own empirical research, as well as secondary materials. Empirical part of the study is based on data from the author’s survey conducted in 2020-2021 (December-March), in Khabarovsk (n-227) and data from sociological survey and materials of the joint analytical report by VTsIOM and ANO “Special Opinion Research Center” (April 2021).

Authors:   The Russian Presidential Academy of National Economy  and  Public  Administration, Shishkov V. V.
Published: October 2023

The article examines development of the state policy of Russia in the field of higher education in terms of attracting foreign students in the period of 2008-2021. Relevance of the topic is determined by the need to increase competitiveness of the domestic higher school and the realization of its export potential. The purpose of the article is to analyze the state policy in the field of higher education to increase the number of foreigners, as an important component of internationalization and export of education. Special attention is paid to internationalization and export of education and the formation of new approaches to public policy in the field of education under the influence of these trends. The article analyzes a number of state planning documents: the Concept of long-term socio-economic development of the Russian Federation for the period up to 2020, the «May decrees» of the President of Russia of 2012 and 2018. These documents have determined the goals and objectives of improving the competitiveness of the Russian higher education. At the same time, the importance attached to the export of education by the Russian leadership is emphasized by a set of projects and programs aimed at attracting the foreigners. In this regard, project approach in the public administration is being investigated in terms of increasing the export of education. The projects «5-100», «Development of the export potential of the Russian education system» and «Export of education» are considered. Based on the analysis, conclusions on the effectiveness of state policy and its promising directions in terms of attracting foreign students are presented.

Published: October 2023

Aim: The pharmacokinetics of doravirine have been studied in clinical
trials, but not in real-world settings. Our study aims to characterize
and identify factors influencing doravirine pharmacokinetics (a CYP3A4
substrate) in real-world people with HIV (PWH). Methods: A total of 174
doravirine concentrations measured in 146 PWH followed up in the
therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) program at the University Hospital of
Lausanne (Switzerland) between 2019 and 2023 were included in the
analysis. Population pharmacokinetic analysis and Monte Carlo
simulations to investigate the clinical significance of the covariates
retained in the final model were performed using NONMEM. Results: A
one-compartment model with first-order absorption and linear elimination
best described doravirine pharmacokinetics. Potent CYP3A4 inhibitors
and, to a lesser extent age, were the only tested covariates to
significantly impact doravirine clearance (CL). Potent CYP3A4 reduced CL
by 50%, and a 30% decrease in CL was observed in an 80-year-old
compared to a 55-year-old PWH. The effect of potent CYP3A4 inhibitors
was prominent, explaining 59% of between-subject variability in CL.
Model-based simulations predicted 2.8-fold and 1.6-fold increases in
median steady-state trough and maximum doravirine concentrations,
respectively, when a potent CYP3A4 inhibitor was co-administered.
Conclusion: Our findings show that potent CYP3A4 inhibitors and age
influence doravirine pharmacokinetics. However, given the good
tolerability of doravirine, dosing adjustment of doravirine is probably
not mandatory in those situations. TDM remains useful essentially in
specific clinical situations, such as hepatic impairment, suspected
non-adherence or pregnancy.
Experience with Non-GAAP Earnings and Investors’ Pricing of Exclusions
Authors: McVay Sarah E. , Rodriguez-Vazquez Edgar A. , Toynbee Sara M.
Published: October 2023

Although the increase in non-GAAP earnings metrics has drawn unfavorable attention from regulators and standard setters, it can provide valuable experience for investors. We investigate whether experience with non-GAAP earnings metrics influences investors’ pricing of non-GAAP exclusions. We measure experience as the frequency with which managers or analysts provide non-GAAP earnings over the prior eight quarters and find that experience aids in the pricing of non-GAAP exclusions. Absent prior experience with non-GAAP earnings metrics, investors appear to overestimate the persistence of exclusions at the earnings announcement, which corrects in the following months. Cross-sectional tests suggest that experience facilitates investors’ pricing of non-GAAP exclusions by reducing their information processing costs.

Social benefits of solar energy: Evidence from Bangladesh
Authors: Salah Uddin Gazi , Abdullah-Al-Baki Chowdhury , Donghyun Park , Ahmed Ali , Shu Tian
Published: October 2023

Research background: The Bangladeshi government has set a plan to generate one-tenth of its electricity from solar and other renewable sources by 2030. Solar adoption surged in Bangladesh up until 2015, setting a global precedent for electrifying areas that were previously unconnected. The enhanced lighting offered by solar systems provides immediate benefits, including additional hours for household and business activities and extended study hours for school-going children.
Purpose of the article: This study seeks to identify the determinants and welfare gains of solar adoption in rural areas by analysing three rounds of the Bangladesh Integrated Household Survey from 2011–12, 2015, and 2018–19. In addition to presenting new estimates of economic, environmental, and educational welfare gains, our research offers insights into how solar adoption relates to rural employment and the nutrition of children under five.
Methods: We utilized both ordinary least squares and propensity score matching techniques to estimate the welfare effects of solar adoption. Only households that do not use electricity as their primary lighting source, such as those relying on solar or kerosene, are considered in our sample.
Findings & value added: We have discovered that adopting solar is linked to higher income, increased expenditure, and growth in asset value. Additionally, there is a significant reduction in kerosene expenditure among adopters compared to non-adopters. Other observations reveal that households with solar setups tend to transition from sharecropping to trading and poultry farming. Children in these households also benefit from solar adoption in terms of education and nutrition. This study illustrates how solar energy can effectively address various welfare concerns in areas where the government cannot supply electricity. Given that recent global events have rendered underdeveloped countries more vulnerable to providing consistent electricity to their entire populations, this research suggests solar energy as a resilient electrification solution during crises.

Published: October 2023

In the context of the socio-political instability that exists in Ukraine, the problem of stress resistance among psychological service professionals has emerged. The aim of the research is to analyse the professional activity of psychologists in Ukraine at the present stage under the influence of stress factors. The following methods were used to study the nature of stress and its impact on the personality of a psychologist: analytical and synthesis methods, statistical, comparative, survey and interpretive methods. The research results theoretically reveal the peculiarities of the concept of stress, the stages of stress development, and identify the main stressors of professional activity. An empirical study of the stress resistance of psychologists was conducted. The influence of stress on the quality of psychological care was determined. Professional qualities in the psychologist's personality structure were identified, the phenomenon of professional exhaustion, the role of countertransference in counselling were studied, the importance of the code of ethics for psychologists and its violation in the course of practice were revealed. The importance of interventions and supervision as a means of psychological support for the professional development of psychologists was investigated, and statistical indicators of the level of stress were analysed. The practical significance of the research is determined by the current coverage of the problem of the impact of stress on the professional activity of a psychologist and in the creation of effective ways of emotional self-preservation and development of stress resistance, which provide the search for their resources for self-healing and effective work.
Pet owners prefer face-to-face consultations, with many being open to considering virtual consultations with veterinarians
Authors: Sigesmund Debbie , Coe Jason B. , Moore Irene C. , Khosa Deep
Published: October 2023

OBJECTIVE

To explore pet owners’ use of information and communication technologies (ICTs) during virtual veterinarian-client-patient consultations and to examine pet owners’ attitudes toward virtual consultations.

SAMPLE

714 pet owners.

METHODS

In an anonymous online survey distributed using snowball sampling, all participants were asked about utilization of ICTs, preferred method of interaction (face-to-face and 5 ICTs), opinion on virtual communication, and demographics. Sentiment toward virtual veterinarian consultations was measured for participants who had experienced a “virtual only” or “combination virtual and face-to-face” consultation in the previous 6 months using the Net Promoter Score. For these participants, multivariable logistic regression was used to explore factors associated with recommending virtual consultations.

RESULTS

92% (583/632) of participants resided in Ontario, Canada. Most (85.6% [611/714]) participants had experience using the telephone for veterinary care, while only 5.2% (37/714) had used live videoconferencing. Participants ranked face-to-face interactions as most preferred (P < .001), followed by telephone and then live videoconferencing. Participants were significantly (P < .001) less confident communicating during virtual consultations, particularly for building rapport. For participants experiencing a virtual consultation in the previous 6 months (n = 348), the overall Net Promoter Score was neutral at –1.43. Participants were divided about recommending virtual consultations, with 33.3% (116/348) being promoters and 34.8% (121/348) being detractors. Age of participant and comfort using videoconferencing were positively associated (P < .05) with recommending virtual consultations.

CLINICAL RELEVANCE

Although participating pet owners significantly preferred face-to-face consultations with veterinarians, many appear willing to consider virtual consultations. Further exploration of pet owners’ preferences and concerns around virtual care, including communication, is needed.

Published: October 2023

This article presents the issue of the in-plane post-breakage capacity of laminated glass elements. It presents the results of an ongoing research project that aims to develop novel reinforced, laminated glass elements with embedded steel woven mesh and increased post-breakage capacity. The research was focused on tensile strength tests in a custom-made experimental set-up. The tests were carried out on laminated glass samples consisting of two glass panes with 8, 10 and 12 mm thicknesses, bonded with an EVA Clear interlayer (3.04 mm thick). A total of 36 reference and reinforced samples were tested (6 series of 6 samples each). During the tests, an increase in load after glass breakage was observed for all samples, however, the samples reinforced with steel mesh showed much better strength in the post-breakage phase. It was found that the steel woven mesh embedded in laminated glass increases the post-breakage capacity by approximately 300% compared to the reference samples.
Optimisation of Weak Soil Stabilisation with a Hydraulic Binder for Road Construction Subgrade
Authors: Sorociak Wojciech , Dobrzyński Marcin
Published: October 2023

One of the methods of strengthening the subgrade under the road pavement construction is its stabilization with a hydraulic binder. The technology of stabilization with binders is well known in the road engineering, however, it is still beneficial in terms of economical and organisational aspects while considering methods for improvement of the load-bearing capacity of the subsoil. The advantages of this technology are, among others, the possibility of using materials both from recycling and local materials, resulting in the possibility of waste production limitation by the use of weak material (soil) in place. The article presents a case study and the results of research obtained during the process of optimizing the thickness stabilized with a hydraulic binder. Comparative tests were carried out to reveal that non-chemical soil enhancement with the use of aggregate is as important as chemical one with the binder in terms of the quality of the final subgrade for road construction. The results were afterwards confirmed in field with use of heavy machines and full-scale soil stabilisation, leading to economic and environmental benefits.

The results of electrochemical processing of spent acidic, neutral, and alkaline sulfate-chloride-containing regenerative solutions in two- and three-chamber electrolyzers are presented. It has been determined that the highest current efficiency for the products of electrodialysis can be achieved in the presence of hardness ions when processing acidic sulfate-containing solutions using three-chamber electrolyzers. It has been established that during electrodialysis of alkaline solutions after regeneration of anionites containing chloride ions, accumulation of alkali occurs in the cathodic region, and in the anodic region, chloride ions accumulate due to diffusion through the anion exchange membrane during the first stage, followed by preferential oxidation of chloride ions with liberation of free chlorine during the second stage. It has been shown that electrodialysis can effectively solve the problem of comprehensive processing of neutral, alkaline, and acidic regenerative sulfate-chloride-containing solutions, with the production of alkali and acid at concentrations suitable for reuse in regeneration processes.

У статті проаналізовано усталені вирази української та польської мов з фразеологемою «вовк» в етнокультурному аспекті, функціонування котрих свідчить про етнічну близькість обох народів, зв’язок із всесвітніми культурними процесами, частиною яких вони є; зазначено, що зоонімному компоненту у складі фразеологічної одиниці характерна національно-культурна специфіка; підкреслено, що джерелами національно-специфічних особливостей фразеологічних одиниць із компонентом-зоонімом слугують відмінності тваринного світу, інтелектуальні та моральні якості людини, характер її трудової діяльності, історичні умови формування мови; встановлено, що в носіїв української та польської мов усталені вирази із фразеологемою «вовк» вербалізують в основному негативну семантику – ворожість, жадібність, жорстокість, злість, кровожерливість, лицемірство, підступність; з’ясовано, що одні й ті ж явища дійсності у двох різних мовах мають подібні й відмінні національно-культурні характеристики.
A Study of Regional Integration and Transaction Mechanisms in North Korea's Rice Market
Authors:   The Korean Agricultural Economics Association, Lim Chehwan , An Donghwan
Published: October 2023

Since the 2000s, North Korea has been shifting away from a socialist planned economy towards a mixed plan-market system, marking a significant transformation in its economic approach. This research concentrates on scrutinizing the North Korean consumer goods market, with a specific focus on rice. The study encompasses nine cities (five/four in Western/Eastern region), covering the period from January 2012 to December 2021. The paper adopts a theoretical framework rooted in the efficient market hypothesis, using statistical analysis to examine absolute and relative prices. Notably, it identifies nearly perfect price parity in two pairs of cities (F-H, West and D-G, East). The relative price analysis shows that all pairs are in relative equilibrium, indicating that market integration has been established across regions. These findings offer statistical evidence of the coexistence of planned and market-based elements in the North Korean rice distribution system. In addition to price analysis, this paper delves into the North Korean rice trading network and associated transaction costs in selected regions. Consequently, this study holds substantial academic distinction, offering valuable insights into North Korea's essential goods distribution system.

Published: October 2023

Se evaluó la compatibilidad, patogenicidad, eficiencia e interacción de Metarhizium robertsii (antes M. anisopliae) con el insecticida lufenuron para el control de Nezara viridula. Se realizaron dos bioensayos en el laboratorio. En el primero se probó el efecto de dos concentraciones de lufenuron sobre la germinación, unidades formadoras de colonias (UFC), crecimiento vegetativo y producción de conidios de M. robertsii. En el segundo, se determinó la patogenicidad a través de las concentraciones letales CL y los tiempos letales TL de M. robertsii así como su eficacia e interacción asociada a lufenuron, en la mortalidad de N. viridula. Los resultados indican que M. robertsii y lufenuron, en las concentraciones más bajas, son compatibles, sin embargo, altas concentraciones del insecticida pueden reducir la germinación y el número de UFC. Mayores concentraciones de M. robertsii aumentan el porcentaje de mortalidad de las ninfas de N. viridula y disminuyen el tiempo de letalidad. Las interacciones de las combinaciones de M. robertsii y lufenuron son eficientes y tienen efectos aditivos, mostrando su potencial para su uso de forma integrada en el control de ninfas de N. viridula.
