Playing To Their Strengths: Empowering Students With Flexible Assessment
Authors: Edwards Ashley
Published: December 2020

Assessment strategies play a major role in enhancing motivation and engagement. In this study, I offered second year biology students the opportunity to take increased control over their semester-based assessment by voluntarily adjusting the weightings of individual assessment items. Students self-reported on their levels of engagement and motivation in the unit. Most respondents (96%) agreed it was appropriate that students were able to adjust task weightings. Students reported feeling ownership and responsibility for their learning as positive factors increasing their desire to direct effort into learning opportunities and assessment tasks. Others reported that increased autonomy reduced the stress and anxiety associated with assessment. 47% of students who returned the survey elected to adjust their assessment. The rest did not want the responsibility of making the ‘wrong’ decision, raising the question of the timing of such initiatives: at what stage in their learning journey are students ready to take on that level of responsibility for their own learning? Self-reported reductions in levels of stress and anxiety associated with assessment by student participants suggest that flexible assessment opportunities could be valuable tools in enhancing the effectiveness of engagement strategies in tertiary learning environments, particularly as the nature of those learning environments continues to change.

Published: December 2020

Provincial general election to elect the governor of NTT has resulted in the installment of Victor Bungtilu Lasikodat as thegovernor of NTT and Joseph Naisoi as the vice governor. This result does not seem to accord with the expectation of the collegestudents, i.e., the students of Widya Mandira Catholic University to be specific. Through a questionnaire the students wereasked which of the candidates become their preference. It turned out that 44,77 percent of the students preferred MarianusSae-Emi Nomleni, followed by Benny Harman-Benny Litelnoni at the second place with 25,58 percent. Victor-Joseph camein the third place with 20,35 percent. Voters in the election were attracted by bombastic promises during the campaign butstudents were more attracted by the actual performance of the candidates either in the government or in the legislature. Morethan that the students are expecting that the future governor can take care of several urgent issues such as better prosperity(88,14 %), health (83,59 %), education (78,67%) and religious tolerance (78,0%) which they believed can be realized byMarianus Sae dan Emi Nomleni as their future governor and vice governor.
Pengakuan Formal dan Pemenuhan Hak Nelayan

Published: December 2020

The Fisherman Card as a proof fisherman identity is a form of formal recognition of the existence and rights of the fishermenby the state. The implementation of the fisherman card from Jakarta up to remote areas is regulated in the Decree of theMinister of Marine Affairs and Fisheries No.16 of the year 2016 on the Fisherman Card. The government through theMinistry of Marine Affairs and Fisheries, c.q. the Provincial Office as well as the Municipality Office of Marine Affairsand Fisheries are targeting that the whole fishermen in this area would hold the fisherman card. Since its launching in2013 until the implementation of the Ministerial Regulation on the Fisherman Card, many fishermen have not received thefisherman card while those who hold the card do not understand the function of the card. The Kupang Municipality up to the144JAP UNWIRA, Vol. 1, No. 1, Januari - Juni 2020mid of 2017 has covered only 26.74 percent of the fishermen as card recipients. This research utilizes the Dunn theoreticalframework that covers the aspects of effectiveness, efficiency, adequacy, equality, responsiveness, and correctness to analyze theimplementation of Fisherman Card in Kupang Municipality. The research period that started from June through September2017 in five coastal villages (Nunbaun Sabu, Nunbaun Delha, Pasir Panjang, Oesapa, Lasiana) found that 73.26 percentof the fishermen had not possessed the Fisherman Card. Worse even, the card holders did not understand the purpose of thecard. The low percentage of card ownership is considered as caused by inadequacy of technical apparatus and human resourcesthat could not cover the whole fishermen of Kupang Municipality. The Fisherman Card is also gender-biased in that itaccommodates only fisherman as narrowly defined by the Law No.7 of 2016 as a person whose occupation is catching fish. TheFisherman Card neglects the pre and post activities of fish catching as well as of salt farmers, most of which are female works.The halfhearted recognition by state of the existence of fishermen who are involved in every link of the marine and fisherywork-chain is nothing but an indicator of the state’s absence to fulfill the rights of fishermen, and of fisherwomen in particular.
METAFISIKA POLITIK: MENIMBANG KEKUATAN ARISTOKRASI DALAM PILKADA BELU DAN MALAKA TAHUN 2020
Authors: Bouk Hendrik Saku
Published: December 2020

Abstract

This writing intends to describe the carrying out of election of district heads of Belu and Malaka regencies of the East Nusa Tenggara Province in December 2020. This paper is of the opinion that the election of district heads in these two regencies involved the perspective of political metaphysics. According to indigenous tradition of the Belunese and the Malakans, the metaphysical power is transformed into the personality of the raja. Raja is the representation of the divine, the incarnation of god (Maromak Oan) and endowed politically with rights to govern. In the general election of the Malaka and  Belu district heads, the pair candidates running for the posts of regent and vice regent did their best to win  the electoral contestation by building their political power through the coalition of political parties, through campaign for mass support, through political physics that mobilizes all political machinery as well as through pataphysics that make use of the virtual networks.  Nevertheless, the coalition of political parties still take into account the power of metaphysical politics  based on aristocracy. The nobilities are considered worthy to become the persons endowed with privileges to govern. Therefore the election of district heads does not necessarily always have to do with coalition, campaign and money politics, but also with tradition and belief of the voters who demonstrate their preference to the candidates from the aristocratic circles.

Provisions on Arbitration Proceedings Set Down in Cartel Agreements Based on the First Hungarian Cartel Act
Authors: Varga Norbert
Published: December 2020

The characteristics of the twentieth century cartel movement deemed it contradictory to free trade, because the measures that limited fair trade were the direct results of free trade itself, and thus the only way to oppose it and protect the consumers’ interests was to guarantee free competition, i.e. the fundamental enforcement of public well-being, public economy and public morals. In this study, I wish to describe the regulations that address the stipulations of arbitration courts by analysing archival sources. Specifically, this paper will examine the role arbitration courts played during dispute settlements between concerned parties before the first Cartel Act of Hungary came into effect in 1931. Keywords: Cartel; Arbitration process; Juries and arbitral tribunals; Hungary
Towards a Metatheoretical Postmodern Approach to Legal Reasoning
Authors: de Oliveira Costa Rafael
Published: December 2020

This paper focuses on legal reasoning, arguing that although methodological theories are important, they are not enough to explain how to reason in law. In fact, because the different philosophical perspectives vary so significantly in their ability to resolve legal conflicts, when a less “adapted” perspective decides a legal question, the results can be disastrous. Thus, this paper inaugurates a new attitude, stating that a general philosophical perspective is the only way out. Relying on a metatheoretical postmodern approach, it argues that logic, analysis, argumentation and hermeneutics are complementary theories that offer a unique perception of law. It concludes that the approach proposed makes possible not only a comprehensive view of the way legal reasoning behaves, but more than this, a proportionate flexibility to both civil and common law systems. Keywords: Paraconsistent Logic; Metatheoretical Postmodern Approach; Metatheoretical Perspective; Paraconsistent Deontic Logic; Ontological Hermeneutics

Authors: Kasiati Kasiati , Nugroho Heru Santoso Wahito
Published: December 2020

One of the components of the IBI organizational system is an integrated organizational administration system, starting from the central level, provincial level, district / city level, to the lowest level, namely the sub-branch level. Until now, the administrative system has not been well organized, especially in the organizational administration system at the provincial level down to the sub-branch level. One of the obstacles encountered was the inadequate implementation of the Administrative Information System for the Indonesian Midwives Association (SIA-IBI) at the district / city level. It is necessary to evaluate the smooth implementation of SIA-IBI in all districts / cities in East Java Province. The subjects of this descriptive research were all (38) administrators of SIA-IBI. There were 2 variables described in this study, namely: 1) the smooth implementation of SIA-IBI; 2) the obstacles in implementing SIA-IBI. Data on these two variables were collected through direct interviews with all SIA-IBI administrators. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, namely frequency and percentage. Based on the data analysis results, it is clear that: 1) all (100%) districts / cities in East Java Province had not been fluent in implementing SIA-IBI; 2) the obstacles faced by SIA-IBI administrators vary widely. The obstacles are grouped into 8 groups, namely: internet connection, double duty, completeness of data, fickle system, limited time, not yet proficient, lack of equipment, and low response to the system. Based on the results, it can be concluded that the implementation of SIA-IBI in all districts / cities in East Java Province has not been going well, and this is related to obstacles from technical and organizational aspects.

Merit System is the placement of someone with a high leadership position based on their competency. The government as the holder of power always makes new regulations or policies and also changes existing policies, to improve the quality of life of the people and the government institution itself. This article aims to analyze the merit system policy in the implementation of the government in Indonesia in implementing the principles of good governance and to see how the role of Baperjakat in making the mutation decision letter has caused problems between ASN and the Regent of Simeulue. The research method uses descriptive qualitative through literature review and research information. Sources of data obtained through journals, news, and documents. Data analysis techniques using Nvivo plus 12 analysis in the form of the crosstab. The results showed that the procedure for the policy of the position of the State Civil Apparatus (ASN) issued by the Regent of Simeulue was not based on established rules. In the process of mutation, the basic foundation of its implementation is still to use the seniority system and the spoil system where this system is not well used in the mutation process. In this mutation, the application is not by the principles of good governance.
EU ENLARGEMENT: TURKISH ACCESSION AND IDENTITY
Authors: Zulkarnaen Muhammad Jave
Published: December 2020

Turkey is one of the most important countries for the EU because it has a strategic position in Western Europe, Eastern Europe, and even the Middle East. The good relationship between Turkey and the EU is based on history such as war, diplomacy, trade, art, cuisine, to culture. For centuries, the relationship between the two marked the deep economic, cultural, artistic, and social cooperation between the Ottoman Empire and the European powers of the fifteenth to the seventeenth centuries. At the same time, conflict and competition create an identity perception among EU countries towards Turkey. This paper attempts to explain the identity of Turkey and the European Union and to determine whether the identity as cultural or political affected the Turkish application to be a member of the European Union.
POLICY OF CHINA'S DEBT-TRAP DIPLOMACY: The Influence Of Media In Forming Community Political Opinions
Authors: Haderiansyah Haderiansyah , Habibah Margareta , Setiawan Andri , Hayat Muzahid Akbar
Published: December 2020

The term debt-trap or Chinese debt trap originated from the introduction of the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) policy by Chinese President Xi Jinping in 2013 which aims to connect the Eurasian economy with infrastructure, trade, and investment. Debt trap diplomacy is related to the cases that occurred in Sri Lanka and Pakistan. In Indonesia, the policy on cooperation projects in the infrastructure sector existed before the BRI policy was signed and then increasingly under the BRI banner. However, if seen from the SULNI June 2020 data, the value of Indonesia's debt to China is around 1% and the cooperation is mostly in the field of productive infrastructure. If the policy of Indonesia-China cooperation is carried out properly and continues to be introspective both inside and outside, then development funding under the BRI banner can produce good results and can avoid debt bondage. In Indonesia, where most of the people have negative sentiments towards Chinese policies, this often happens and is framed for political consumption which is disposed of to the public through mass media and then used to lead opinions through discussions on social media.

The sense of language is reflected in how one communicates. In students, the impression of speaking can be seen from how he communicates as well as communicating with lecturers. However, not a few students do not consider the procedure of communicating with lecturers so as to commit language violations. Whereas the application of impressions in this language should have been a good habit in every individual in communicating and interacting, it is no exception when communicating via WhatsApp chat. This research was conducted to describe how students use language in communicating with lecturers through chat on the WhatsApp messenger app. This research is qualitative research by applying descriptive methods—data obtained using a google form method to lecturers at universities in Indonesia through Whatsapp groups. The results showed that there was suitability of the language used by students towards lecturers and some who committed language violations. Some of the Maxim in the principle of language effect, according to Leech (2016), contained in this study are Maxim wisdom, Maxim appreciation, Maxim simplicity, and Maxim sympathy.
Does work commitment mediates the effect of Islamic work ethic on performance and turnover intention?
Authors: Miswanto Miswanto , Arifin Rois , Murniyati Dwi
Published: December 2020

Islam is a comprehensive religion that covers not only the ritual worship aspect but also ethics and acts of business. The field of Islamic work ethics has been studied by many researchers in different study settings. However, the important role of Islamic work ethics has been underexplored in work commitment studies. Therefore, this study aims to examine the direct and indirect effect of Islamic work ethics in affecting employees work performance and turnover intention through work commitment. This study used the quantitative method as their main research design. Purposive sampling was applied as a sampling technique with a five-point Likert scale of the structured questionnaire as a measurement scale and data gathering method. The bootstrap method used to test the proposed hypotheses. This study concluded that Islamic work ethic positively affects work commitment, thus work commitment positively affects work performance. This study also found that there was an insignificant effect of Islamic work ethic on work performance and turnover intention, and work commitment on turnover intention. Fundamentally, the mediation role of work commitment failed to prove in this study as there were only significant indirect effects between Islamic work ethic and work performance. In other words, the higher individual beliefs on Islamic value, the more committed employee to do their job. Thus, the more committed and enthusiastic employees on their job, the higher their work performance will be.
Investigating the success of an E-Auction system initiatives among public servants: Validation of an integrated IS success model

Published: December 2020

The implementation of an information system (IS) in public sector organizations was a crucial issue that needs to be addressed periodically. This study was conducted to examine the satisfaction factors of an E-Auction system adoption behavior by using the integrated IS Model of Delon, McLean, and Seddon. The usage of seven dimensions of the integrated IS model such as compatibility, the quality of a system, information, and service, perceived usefulness, and ease of use, to evaluate users satisfaction among public servants are still rare. This study was designed to focus on officials auctioneer that have experiences in using the E-Auction systems. The structured questionnaire with a five-point Likert scale and regression was chosen as the data collection and analysis method. This study found that there were only two of six variables (information quality and compatibility) that significantly prove as predictors of user satisfaction. Interestingly, our findings also found that there was no correlation between perceived ease of use and usefulness. Poor interface design, lack of technical support, and the usage of an E-Auction system that is classified as "order by mandate" were the primary concern that causes the insignificant relationship between variables. Therefore, to boost the satisfaction levels, further IS developers should pay more attention to improving information quality that is compatible with user needs.
High mobility group 20B (HMG20B) is a differentially expressed gene in human metastatic breast cancer, in the brain and in the lymph nodes.
Authors: Mamoor Shahan
Published: December 2020

Metastasis to the brain is a clinical problem in patients with breast cancer (1-3). We mined published microarray data (4, 5) to compare primary and metastatic tumor transcriptomes for the discovery of genes associated with brain metastasis in humans with metastatic breast cancer. We found that high mobility group 20B, encoded by HMG20B, was among the genes whose expression was most different in the brain and lymph node metastases of patients with metastatic breast cancer. HMG20B mRNA was present at increased quantities in brain metastatic tissues as compared to primary tumors of the breast. Importantly, expression of HMG20B in primary tumors was significantly correlated with patient distant metastasis-free survival in patients with breast cancer. Modulation of HMG20B expression may be relevant to the biology by which tumor cells metastasize from the breast to the brain while evading immune clearance in the lymph nodes in humans with metastatic breast cancer.

Enhanced Artificial Intelligence System for Diagnosing and Predicting Breast Cancer Using Deep Learning
Authors: AISDL
Published: December 2020

Breast cancer is the leading cause of death among women with cancer. Computer-aided diagnosis is an efficient method for assisting medical experts in early diagnosis, improving the chance of recovery. Employing artificial intelligence (AI) in the medical area is very crucial due to the sensitivity of this field. This means that the low accuracy of the classification methods used for cancer detection is a critical issue. This problem is accentuated when it comes to blurry mammogram images. In this paper, convolutional neural networks (CNNs) are employed to present the traditional convolutional neural network (TCNN) and supported convolutional neural network (SCNN) approaches. The TCNN and SCNN approaches contribute by overcoming the shift and scaling problems included in blurry mammogram images. In addition, the flipped rotation-based approach (FRbA) is proposed to enhance the accuracy of the prediction process (classification of the type of cancerous mass) by taking into account the different directions of the cancerous mass to extract effective features to form the map of the tumour. The proposed approaches are implemented on the MIAS medical dataset using 200 mammogram breast images. Compared to similar approaches based on KNN and RF, the proposed approaches show better performance in terms of accuracy, sensitivity, spasticity, precision, recall, time of performance, and quality of image metrics.

Review of Rick Repetti, Buddhism, Meditation, and Free Will: A Theory of Mental Freedom
Authors: Huebner Bryce
Published: December 2020

In this extended review, I provide a brief overview of Rick Repetti's arguments in Buddhism, Meditation, and Free Will: A Theory of Mental Freedom. I then propose that South Asian Buddhist philosophy should be seen as providing an alternative way of thinking about questions regarding freedom and agency. More specifically, I ague that there isn’t anything that a Buddhist must say about free will; and that paying attention to their silence on the issue may be useful in thinking about what a contemporary free will skeptic should say about individual and collective liberation.
Disruption to Embodiment in Autism, and Its Repair
Authors: Delafield-Butt Jonathan , Dunbar Pum , Trevarthen Colwyn
Published: December 2020

This paper offers a neuroscientific explanation of life with autism which recognises that human behaviour and experience is by nature both personal and interpersonal. With a focus on insights of Penelope Dunbar (Pum) who has lived with autism for decades, we explore an affective neuroscience understanding of autistic experience and how to work creatively with its impulses for health and personal development. Pum describes her autistic disruptions to the intra-personal coherence of her basic states of being, moving-with-feeling in self-awareness, and how this disturbance to her internal subjective coherence of mind challenges her capacity to self-regulate arousal, and communicate with others. By examination of the source of her problems in childhood and ways of working with them, Pum has clarified fundamental elements in the development of her capacity to regulate self-care in creative efforts that facilitate both affective embodiment and sensory-motor coherence in growth of understanding in her mind and body. With her advice we explore how current neurobiological insights in autism as a disruption to the regulation of affective embodiment and sensory-motor integration leads to new recommendations for therapeutic care to relieve autistic distress and restricted modes of being. Although particular to her circumstances and cultivated habits of autistic expression, this analysis offers insight into the fundamental nature of autism, and ways of positive working with one’s autistic nature for creative gains.

Published: December 2020

To slow down the spread of COVID-19 public compliance on social distancing policy is required. One of the factors that contribute to compliance on social distancing policy is awareness on COVID-19. This study aimed to examine the relationship between awareness on COVID-19 and compliance with social distancing policy. This study used an online survey through Google Form to 404 respondents aged 18 to 63 years (Mean = 27.17, SD = 8.468). The data were collected by using awareness on the COVID-19 scale and compliance with the social distancing scale. The data were analyzed using the Spearman correlation and Kruskal Wallis, followed up by Mann-Whitney U with Bonferroni correction. Based on Spearman correlation, the awareness on COVID-19 was significantly and positively associated with compliance with social distancing order (r=.460, p<.01). Further analysis based on demographic variables found that the awareness on COVID-19 was significantly higher in postgraduates than high school graduates (U=7242.5, p<.01). The awareness on COVID-19 was also significantly higher in working participants than jobless participants. The compliance with social distancing order was found higher in women than men (U=12031.5, p<.01). The study's primary result is that the awareness on COVID-19 positively correlates with public compliance on social distancing order.

Grass and Gravel: Investigating Visual Properties Preschool Children and Adults Use When Distinguishing Naturalistic Images

Visual processing of a natural environment occurs quickly and effortlessly. Yet, little is known about how young children are able to visually categorize naturalistic structures, since their perceptual abilities are still developing. We addressed this question by asking 76 children (age: 4.1-6.1 years) and 72 adults (age: 18-50 years) to first sort cards with greyscale images depicting vegetation, manmade artifacts, and non-living natural elements (e.g., stones) into groups according to visual similarity. Then, they were asked to choose the images' superordinate categories. We analyzed the relevance of different visual properties to the decisions of the participant groups. Children were very well able to interpret complex visual structures. However, children relied on fewer visual properties and, in general, were less likely to include properties which afforded the analysis of detailed visual information in their categorization decisions than adults, suggesting that immaturities of the still-developing visual system affected categorization. Moreover, when sorting according to visual similarity, both groups attended to the images' assumed superordinate categories—in particular to vegetation—in addition to visual properties. Children had a higher relative sensitivity for vegetation than adults did in the classification task when controlling for overall performance differences. Taken together, these findings add to the sparse literature on the role of developing perceptual abilities in processing naturalistic visual input.

Pandemi covid-19 tentunya bukan hanya merenggut nyawa banyak manusia, tetapi juga menyebabkan berbagai sektor harus melakukan perombakan kebijakan agar kegiatan bisa terus berjalan. Salah satu sektor yang terdampak adalah sektor pendidikan dimana pemerintah harus mengubah sistem pembelajaran yang semulanya dilaksanakan di dalam kelas menjadi pembelajaran dengan sistem daring atau secara online. Hal ini tentunya tidak dapat diterima langsung oleh seluruh pelajar dan orang tua yang ada di Indonesia. Pembelajaran daring ini menyebabkan banyak pelajar yang tertekan dalam segi psikis maupun jasmaninya karena ketidaksiapan dan ketidak mampuan dalam menghadapi perubahan sistem pembelajaran ini. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk menjelaskan beberapa dampak yang dialami para pelajar dan para orang tua akibat dari sistem pembelajaran daring ini. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah kajian literatur yang mana semua hasil penelitian diperoleh dari kajian-kajian yang berasal dari beberapa artikel terkait serta diambil dari kejadian-kejadian yang memang terjadi di sekitar penulis dimana penelitian ini menunjukkan dampak-dampak dari pembelajaran daring seperti banyaknya siswa yang merasa tertekan bahkan depresi karena tidak bisa mengikuti pembelajaran dengan baik atau juga karena proses adaptasi yang berjalan lambat, munculnya stres akademik yang berakibat pada menurunnya prestasi siswa, kesulitan memahami pelajaran karena kondisi lingkungan yang kurang kondusif, kurangnya interaksi antar siswa dengan teman-teman dan gurunya yang menyebabkan siswa menjadi jenuh dan tidak bersemangat dalam mengikuti pembelajaran, hingga dampak bagi kesehatan mata siswa karena terlalu lama berada di depan monitor. Namun, pembelajaran daring ini juga menjadikan hubungan siswa dan orang tuanya menjadi lebih erat karena siswa mempunyai waktu lebih banyak untuk berkumpul bersama keluarga.

Banyak sekali distraksi kehidupan yang membuat kita lupa akan pentingnya kesehatan mental dan pentingnya berproses. Distraksi dari lingkungan menghasilkan penuntutan yang tidak berhenti di diri kita yang secara bersamaan membuat kita melupakan bahwa selain hasil kita juga sambil berproses menjadi manusia. Metode jurnal ini adalah metode kajian literatur. Penulis menulis jurnal ini bukan bertujuan agar mengajak pembaca melihat di aspek berproses saja dan melupakan hasil, melainkan mengajak pembaca menuju kesadaran bahwa kurangnya masyarakat sekarang untuk menghargai beproses dirinya dan orang lain. Regulasi emosi sangatlah penting untuk menangani stress dari penuntutan lingkungan dan diri kita sendiri.

Citizen science has expanded rapidly over the past decades. Yet, defining citizen science and its boundaries remained a challenge, and this is reflected in the literature - for example in the proliferation of typologies and definitions. There is a need for identifying areas of agreement and disagreement within the citizen science practitioners community on what should be considered as citizen science activity. This paper describes the development and results of a survey that examined this issue, through the use of vignettes - short case descriptions that describe an activity, while asking the respondents to rate the activity on a scale from ‘not citizen science’ (0%) to ‘citizen science’ (100%). The survey included 50 vignettes, of which 5 were developed as clear cases of not-citizen science activities, 5 as widely accepted citizen science activities, and the others addressing 10 factors and 61 sub-factors that can lead to controversy about an activity. The survey has attracted 333 respondents, who provided over 5,100 ratings. The analysis demonstrates the plurality of understanding of what citizen science is and calls for an open understanding of what activities are included in the field.
Visual Portrayals of People in Need: The Impact of Refugee Depictions on Compassion and Support for Humanitarian Aid
Authors: Dumitrescu Delia , Bucy Erik P.
Published: December 2020

As conflicts flare around the world, images of refugees are a familiar presence in Western media. Drawing on existing accounts of refugee imagery, and on previous research on compassion and on Moral Foundations Theory, we demonstrate how refugee depictions that vary in terms of their sympathy framing influence public opinion, using three survey experiments in Sweden, the US, and UK, with 25 unique images taken from international media coverage of the Syrian refugee crisis and over 4,500 combined respondents. We find that ideology has a strong moderating effect on the impact of refugee visual imagery: whereas liberals are similarly sympathetic to refugee depictions, irrespective of the manifest vulnerability of those depicted or how they are pictured, compassion responses among conservatives vary with the specific visual frame presented. Moreover, compassion mediates the effect of visuals on right-wing support for refugee aid, particularly when conservatives are shown images of individual children refugees as opposed to images of groups of adults. We conclude by discussing the implications for the editorial selection of news photographs of refugees, as well as the need for further research into the role of images in shaping responses to humanitarian crises across different cultural contexts.
