Robot-Assisted Language Learning: A Meta-Analysis
Authors: Derakhshan Ali , Teo Timothy , Saeedy Robat Esmaeel , Janebi Enayat Mostafa , Jahanbakhsh Akbar A.
Published: May 2024

This meta-analysis included 27 empirical studies to explore the effectiveness of robot-assisted language learning (RALL) as well as the moderating effects of a number of variables. The comparison of 64 effect sizes from 2,637 participants indicated significant variability between the independent samples. The overall results showed that the combined linguistic and affective gain of RALL was significant. The results of moderator analysis showed that most moderators, including place of the study, type of robot, publication type, instructional level of the learners, design of the study, time points of assessment, learning setting, second language (L2) proficiency level, type of assessment, language domain, and the non-RALL condition had no significant effects on learning outcomes. However, the moderating effect of the participants’ age was significant as RALL was found to be more effective for elementary school students (7–12 years old). The findings provide insights into the design of effective robots for second language acquisition (SLA) that support learners with certain characteristics.

Authors: Kamal Doaa , Saihood Raed G.
Published: May 2024

Natural convection in a porous, rectangular hollow full of saturated air was investigated numerically in the current study. The bottom side was warmed with a continuous heat flux, the right side's temperature was kept at (Tc), the left wall was opened to the surroundings, and the top side was insulated. The pertinent filled-out research parameters in the current experiment were four heat flux values (1500, 3000, 4500, and 6000 W/m²) and three Darcy’s numbers (Da1=4.025×10-10, Da2=4.025×10-8, Da3=4.025×10-6). COMSOL Multiphysics 5.5a, using finite elements and a relying Brinkman-Darcy extended model, was employed to resolve government equations. Local thermal balance simulation was assumed in this solution. Energy transfer and momentum were studied using isotherms and streamlines. The findings appeared that the flow velocity improved with the rising Darcy number, especially in the case of Da3, as well as increasing the average Nusselt number about 110 % and 45% for Da3 and Da2 compared with Da1. Additionally, the increase in heat flux will increase the heat transfer, especially with Da3.

Authors: Gulam Mustafa Abdullah , AlShimmeri Ahmed Jabbar Hussain
Published: May 2024

This study's primary objective is to examine the structural behavior of using 2C-Cold produced. Section Castellated beams when subjected to monotonic load till failure. The experimental program testing. Seven Fabricated samples of castellated steel beams and one sample, which is a non-castellated steel beam (reference beam), were tested as supported beams under concentrated loads at two points over a clear span length (1730 mm). All castellated steel beams were similar in all properties and dimensions except the breadth of the upper and lower flanges. The current study considers the implications of modifying the width of the top and bottom flanges on how these beams behave. The findings showed that the ratio of the tested Castellated beams' ultimate load-carrying capacity to the non-castellated reference beam (R1) ranged from 99.3 to 117.2%, and the ratio of the tested beams' ultimate deflection to the same reference beam (R1) ranged from 72.6 to 103.2%. Increasing the breadth of the top and bottom flanges has a direct relationship with castellated beam stiffness and ultimate load. Finally, adjusting the flange width between the top and bottom flanges reduces castellated beam rigidity and ultimate load.
Enhancing the Ability of the Square Footing to Resist Positive and Negative Eccentric-inclined Loading Using an Inclined Skirt
Authors: Alhalbusi Ghazwan Salah , Al-Saidi A’amal A. H.
Published: May 2024

Shallow and inclined skirted foundations on 30% sandy soil were examined in the experiment program. The study examined the effects of positive and negative eccentric-inclined loading on foundations. Experimental testing was done in a 600 × 600 mm box with a 50 x 50 mm square footing with a 10 mm thickness. The skirt angles were 10°, 20°, and 30°, and the skirt depth was Ds was 0.5 B. Results showed that using skirts significantly increases load-bearing capacity and decreases tilting. Tilting reduces with a skirt, and skirt inclination (alpha) increases with similar loads. Inclined skirts decrease tilt by (2.3% to 0.66%) at e was 0.15 B, load angle (beta) was 15°, and alpha was 30° in the negative case. Tilting increases with eccentricity. As load inclination grows, unskirted and skirted foundations slide and rotate. For the positive case, the tilting decreases from 10% to 2% with e was 0.15 B, loading angle (beta) was 15°, and alpha was 30° with an inclination skirt. The amount of horizontal displacement of the skirted foundation is more than that of the unskirted foundation when comparing the failure load for the unskirted foundation with the same load for the skirted foundation. Loading a foundation without a skirt causes significant settlement and little horizontal displacement. Increasing the load angle is effective since it greatly affects horizontal displacement. In some situations, such as a negative eccentric-inclined load with Ds was 0.5 B, beta was 15, and e was 0.05 B, the influence of the loading angle may be decreased once failures with eccentricity. When eccentricity increases while the load angle (beta) remains constant, the horizontal displacement of a negative eccentric-inclined load reduces.

Authors: Chen Jiugang , Zhang Guirong
Published: May 2024

Ransomware remains one of the most pernicious threats in cybersecurity, with its distribution mechanisms evolving alongside technological advancements. This study explores the efficacy of machine learning techniques in detecting ransomware activities within the InterPlanetary File System (IPFS), a decentralized storage network. The research evaluates several machine learning models, including Logistic Regression, Decision Trees, Random Forests, Gradient Boosting Machines, and Convolutional Neural Networks, to assess their accuracy, precision, recall, and robustness under adversarial conditions. Results indicate that advanced models, particularly Convolutional Neural Networks and Random Forests, perform with high effectiveness, maintaining substantial accuracy and resilience against evasion techniques. The findings underscore the potential of integrating machine learning into cybersecurity measures for decentralized systems, proposing a promising avenue for enhancing IPFS's resistance to ransomware threats. Future work should focus on expanding dataset diversity, improving model adaptability to new and evolving threats, and assessing the deployment feasibility in varied operational contexts.
Economic Hedging by Small-State Firms in Great Power Strategic Competition: The Case of Malaysian Rail Link (MRL) (2013-2020)
Authors: Xinlei Zhao
Published: May 2024

Existing research on how small (weak) states respond to the geopolitical rivalry of great powers often centers around the hedging strategy, where small states tend to maintain their diplomatic independence by taking non-explicit sides and stances to better safeguard their security and interests in the face of increasing external uncertainty. This paper, however, provides another powerful way of explaining this from the perspective of non-state actors through the changing attitudes and strategies of the Malaysian Rail Link (MRL) in the Malaysia-China East Coast Rail Link (ECRL) project. This paper shows that due to the unique nature of firms, small state firms will choose to respond to external great power games with economic hedging, and performance legitimization and particularistic legitimization determine the strength of small states' economic hedging and when firms and the governments they represent choose performance as a way to enhance legitimacy, small state firms will choose to use economic soft hedging as their primary mode of response. Conversely, economic complex hedging is more pronounced when particularistic legitimization is used to enhance legitimacy. The findings of this paper also demonstrate that small state firms have a complex connection with the government. On the one hand, small state firms are the implement and influential representatives of the ruling government's foreign policy, inheriting the government's essential interest pursuits and expectations. On the other hand, the enterprise itself is also a vital interest organization. It will also formulate economic policy according to its own needs. However, the MRL shows that the Malaysian government firmly controls the tiny state firms and is an important tool and instrument for the foreign economic game of the small state government.
Support for Open Science is Equally High in Opt-In versus Representative Samples of Scientists
Authors: Thomas Ashley J , Bourg Chris , Saxe Rebecca
Published: May 2024

Many studies on open science attitudes and practice use opt-in samples. This strategy poses a problem: it is unclear whether and to what degree scholars who opt in to surveys about open science are more likely to support open science, compared to the whole population of scholars. Thus high levels of support for open science in prior surveys might reflect self-selection bias bias (Heckman, 1990). In the current study we compare attitudes toward open science in two samples of scientists, differing only in sampling strategy. The first sample was collected by emailing a survey to eligible researchers at a research focused institution, yielding a 27% participation rate. The second sample was collected by providing time to complete the survey at the beginning of regularly scheduled lab meetings at the same institution, yielding a 95% participation rate. Overall, support for open science practices was high, and there was positive evidence that the two samples answered the questions in the same way. This suggests that opt-in sampling strategies do not overestimate support for open science.
Bridging the gap through common features: The semantic structure of creative metaphors
Authors: Yang Tianchen , Zheng Xintong , dong zhiwen , Zheng Yao , hou yubo
Published: May 2024

Metaphors are common and useful in real-world creations, yet the understanding of what makes them creative from the perspective of associative thinking remains limited. This study used a large language model to measure semantic distances among target, base, and common feature (CF) in 1,212 metaphors from 133 participants. It discovered that greater semantic distances were associated with higher creativity. Notably, a gap of information (GoI) was identified, revealing that the target-CF distance exceeded the base-CF distance. A three-way interaction was detected. Metaphors with high levels of GoI, complexity, and target-base distance were the most creative. Individuals skilled at generating metaphors with GoI showed higher divergent thinking originality and creative self-identity. This research extends the associative theory of creativity by demonstrating how creative metaphors integrate distant associations: they bridge the target and base through a common feature and enrich the target domain with novel insights.
Race and racism - ‘They attacked you just like that’: racial epistemics in making claims about racism.
Authors: Sambaraju Rahul
Published: May 2024

Social psychological research on race and racism has shown that tellers’ reports of experiencing racism are not always accepted or received as valid reports. In this paper, I offer racial epistemics as one mechanism by which the telling and receiving of reports about racism occur. I examine how tellers and recipients might be positioned differently in terms of their epistemic rights and entitlements to racial experiences and the various ways that the epistemic gradient across tellers and recipients is navigated. Through examining news media accounts where Black persons were invited to talk about their experiences of racism in India, I show that despite ascribing a privileged epistemic position to Black persons, recipients (interviewers and other panelists) could make salient epistemic rights to commonsense, specialized, or other forms of racial knowledge in collaboratively establishing, confirming or correcting, and challenging claims about racism in India. The findings are discussed in relation to broader understanding of racism in social psychology. The data are in Indian English.
A Dominance Analysis on the relationship between Schizotypy and Loneliness Type
Authors: Randell Jordan , Gray Debra , Cleveland Michelle , Manning Rachel
Published: May 2024

Background: This study investigated how individual differences in schizotypy differentially predicted types of loneliness – direct, social, emotional, and existential loneliness (in relationships and meaninglessness in life). Methods: We presented participants with the brief version of the Oxford-Liverpool Inventory of Feelings and Experiences and the de Jong Giervald loneliness scale and used dominance analysis to evaluate the dominant predictors of schizotypy on loneliness. We also evaluated the impact of depression on each model. Results: In our preregistered analysis we found evidence to suggest that cognitive disorganization and introvertive anhedonia are consistently the most dominant of the schizotypy predictors. Introvertive anhedonia was the most dominant predictor for social loneliness and existential loneliness in relationships, and cognitive disorganization was the most dominant predictor of direct, emotional and existential meaninglessness in life loneliness. Depression became the most dominant predictor of all types of loneliness when added to the models. Limitations: This research is limited by the cross-sectional nature of the data which is unable to account for changes in loneliness over time, and we acknowledge that the relationship between predictors and outcome is likely bi-directional Conclusions: Our findings highlight the diverse relationship between schizotypy and loneliness type and suggest that schizotypy domains linked to social anxiety and withdrawal are key predictors of loneliness. These findings are important for the development of focused interventions and the prevention of clinical disorder development.

Published: May 2024

Cd is a non-essential metal and a widespread micropollutant that has physiological effects on aquatic organisms. Cd heavy metal poisoning can be acutely caused by contamination at high doses, while chronic poisoning is generally caused by low levels of contamination and long exposure time. This research was conducted in June 2022 at the Marine Chemistry Laboratory Faculty of Fisheries and Marine, Universitas Riau, which aims to determine the value of LC50 (Lethal Concentration) for 24 hours after being given a toxicant in the form of Cd and to determine the level of Cd toxicity in A. salina. The method used in this research is the experimental method with the experimental unit A. salina. The LC50 of Cd on A. salina revealed 11.7109 mg/L. This concentration is capable of causing the death of 50% of the test animals. Furthermore, the water quality in the acute toxicity test, P0 (control), was classified as good to support the life of A. salina, while at P1 (3.13 mg/L) - P5 (50 mg/L), it was classified as polluted.

Published: May 2024

Failure to implement good land redistribution to the community will lead to gaps in ownership of land rights in Indonesia. Implementation of land redistribution in accordance with expectations can at least ensure equal distribution of ownership of land rights, realize the optimization of agricultural land, and increase income for the people of Pasaman Regency. This research aims to examine the implementation of land redistribution, especially for the period 2021–2022, in Pasaman Regency in response to the challenge of equitable ownership of land rights. This research uses an empirical juridical approach; the nature of the research is descriptive and analytical; data collection techniques are carried out using interviews and document studies. The final results show that the implementation of land redistribution in Pasaman Regency, if seen in the last two years, is still considered to be less effective in realizing equal distribution of ownership of land rights. The lack of precise targets and the failure to achieve these targets impact the effectiveness of land redistribution. With the various challenges and prospects that are expected in the future, it is necessary to adapt policies to several agrarian reform events, such as the concept of land reform in Ngandagan Village and the proposed requirements for establishing cooperatives that were implemented in Nagari Timpe.

The government through Minister of Education and Culture Regulation No. 23/2015 on Cultivating Budi Pekerti has established a School Literacy Movement (GLS) policy that includes digital literacy skills. This effort was made by the government to produce a young generation that is technologically proficient with the digital literacy movement in the school environment. In this research, the author wants to know the implementation of the digital literacy movement policy at SMK Assalam in Bantur sub-district. This research uses a qualitative descriptive method by analyzing and summarizing various data obtained through observations and interviews with factual conditions in the field. The results of the study show that the implementation of the digital literacy movement at SMK Assalam has been good so far. The success in its implementation is influenced by good communication between implementers and the openness of implementers in receiving new information. In addition, the school also has adequate infrastructure to support the success of digital literacy. Uneven internet access causes low awareness of students and guardians about the importance of technological skills in the world of education.

A theoretical study of the effects of uniaxial stress and spatial dielectric functions on the density of states of shallow donor impurities in a GaAs quantum well dot of circular geometry

Published: May 2024

In the present work, we have carried out a comparative study of the effects of uniaxial stress and spatial dielectric functions on the density of impurity states (DOIS) of shallow donor impurities in a GaAs  quantum well dot of circular cross-section. Using a trial wave function in the effective mass approximation, we carried out calculations for a range of binding energies of hydrogenic (dielectric constant) and non-hydrogenic (spatial dielectric functions) donors for various applied uniaxial stress and for different uniaxial lengths of the quantum dot. Our results show that, for a constant axial length of the quantum dot and constant uniaxial stress, the DOIS for the donor impurity is markedly enhanced for the non-hydrogenic donor impurity over that for purely hydrogenic donor impurity. At constant axial length, the applied uniaxial stress enhances the DOIS in both cases. The density of impurity states has also been studied for a constant applied uniaxial stress for different axial lengths of the quantum dot. Here, again, the DOIS increases with increasing axial length of the quantum dot. In fact, the enhanced DOIS is observed throughout the range of binding energies considered. These results show that not only does the DOIS vary with the applied uniaxial stress and spatial dielectric functions they are also different for various axial lengths of the quantum dot. These findings indicate that is  important to take into account the effect of applied uniaxial stress and spatial dielectric functions when performing experimental studies of electronic, optical and transport properties of such nanostructures as quantum dots.
