PENDIDIKAN MULTIKULTURAL DAN GLOBALISASI: UNTUK PROFIT ATAU CULTIVATING HUMANITY?
Authors: Baghi Felix
Published: March 2023

Keterbukaan terhadap yang lain  hanya mungkin kalau orang saling belajar dengan menatap ke depan, memandang setiap keberlainan dengan cita rasa kemanusiaan yang kaya makna, penuh empati. Yang  Lain dalam konteks tanggung jawab etis yang asimteris (Levinas), dalam terang hubungan interpersonal yang mutual (Paul Ricoeur) dan dalam kesanggupan mengantisipasi kemustahilan kedatangan yang lain, suatu antisipasi yang membutuhkan keberanian untuk menghadapi segala situasi yang tidak dapat diduga sebelumnya (Jacques Derrida). Oleh karena itu, pendidikan yang adekuat untuk hidup dalam suatu iklim demokrasi yang pluralistik  adalah pendidikan yang multikultural. Pendidikan multikutural mengajarkan anak didik untuk mengenal dan terbuka terhadap  kisah dan narasi hidup serta kultur  kelompok yang lain, baik dari dimensi religius, etnis, ekonomis, politis dan gender. Dalam dimensinya yang global, pendidikan multikultural membutuhkan kontribusi interaktif dari pengetahuan sejarah, geografi, studi kebudayaan yang interdisipliner, sejarah hukum dan sistim politik serta studi-studi keagamaan.

Etika merupakan dimensi penting dalam kehidupan berbangsa dan bernegara. Kita diberi kesempatan untuk merefleksikan unsur-unsur etis dalam pendapat-pendapat spontan kita. Refleksi menjadi penting karena akan terjadi benturan pendapat antara pihak yang satu dengan pihak yang lain. Oleh karena itu kita membutuhkan etika untuk mencari tahu apa yang seharusnya dilakukan oleh manusia. Etika memerlukan sikap kritis, metodis, dan sistematis dalam melakukan refleksi. Karena itulah etika merupakan suatu ilmu. Sebagai suatu ilmu, objek dari etika adalah tingkah laku manusia yang memiliki sudut pandang normatif.  Dalam konteks mengurus Negara, ada banyak dimensi etika yang menuntun  para pejabat, mitra, dan rakyat untuk mengedepankan kebaikan, kebenaran, dan persatuan.

Published: March 2023

Aming to select a suitable system for the synergistic solvent extraction of Ga(III), solvent extraction (SX) experiments were carried out by using acidic organo-phosphorous extractants, namely P204, P507 and Cyanex 272, and their mixtures with neutral extractants (TBP, N503) or amine extractants (Alamine 336). Among the studied mixtures, a remarkable synergistic effect for Ga(III) extraction was resulted by the combination of Cyanex 272 and Alamine 336 and the maximal synergistic enhancement coefficient reached 3.11. Compared to the single Cyanex 272, higher equilibrium pH values were observed when mixture of Cyanex 272 and Alamine 336 was employed. The extraction of hydrogen ions by Alamine 336 during the reaction was considered to be responsible for the synergistic extraction, and thus the the extraction of Ga(III) by Cyanex 272 was promoted. Finally, the synergistic extraction stoichiometry of mixture of Cyanex 272 and Alamine 336 for Ga(III) was projected by slope analysis. Ga(OH)A2 was resulted to be the composition of extracted complexes.

Published: March 2023

Described as a group of independent travelers with flexible itineraries and without substantial time constraints, backpackers constitute one of the tourist segments that has drawn the attention of many researchers around the world. However, little is known about how this segment of
travelers behaves in destinations from a space–time perspective. The purpose of this study is to examine the relevance of the order and visit length on backpackers' space–time behavior in an urban world heritage destination. Using geographic information system (GIS) software, the
sequence and the length of the visit were identified. To analyze the order of the places visited, we used the ordered logit method and to study the duration dimension a multivariate equation, estimated by OLS with heteroskedasticity robust errors, was selected. The results showed that no variable
in particular influences the order of the places visited in any of the parishes simultaneously, reinforcing the underlying randomness in relation to the order in which destination parishes are visited. Length of stay is mostly influenced by factors related to mobility conditions as well as
factors exogenous to tourists' decision-making capacity.

Published: March 2023

Autoimmune haemolytic anaemia (AIHA) and paroxysmal nocturnal haemoglobinuria (PNH) are two distinct causes of haemolytic anaemia. They have different mechanisms that underpin their pathogenesis and, therefore, require different treatment strategies. The direct antiglobulin test (DAT) or Coombs’ test is positive in cases of immune-mediated haemolytic anaemia and, thus, is positive in AIHA but negative in PNH. We report a case of a man presenting with a haemolytic anaemia who was found to have concomitant evidence of AIHA and PNH. The case highlights the importance of carrying out a comprehensive haemolysis work-up in patients who present with haemolytic anaemia.

Introduction: Chronic Myeloid Leukaemia (CML) is a myeloproliferative neoplasm characterised by uncontrolled proliferation of white blood cells and its precursors. At diagnosis, various risk scoring systems have been formulated for risk stratification. In 2016, European Treatment Outcome Study (EUTOS) Long Term Survival (ELTS) score has been formulated most recently. This score was recommended by European LeukaemiaNet in 2020. Objective: The objective of the study was to estimate the frequency of high-risk patients among Chronic Myeloid Leukaemia patients in chronic phase using ELTS scoring system. Materials and Methods: This observational study was conducted among patients at Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University (BSMMU) between September 2020 and October 2021. A total of fifty chronic myeloid leukaemia patients were enrolled using purposive sampling technique. Clinical information and haematological parameters were recorded. Bone marrow study was conducted to confirm phase of the disease. ELTS risk score was calculated, and risk stratification was done. Chi-square test was done to find out statistical association between variables. Results: Among study participants, 14% were identified as high-risk cases using ELTS score. 40% of patients were intermediate-risk and 46% were low-risk disease. Presence of hepatomegaly or splenomegaly were significantly more common among high-risk patients. Significantly increased eosinophil and blast percentages and significantly lower haemoglobin level were found in high-risk patients. Conclusion: A fair proportion of the CML patients were identified as high-risk patients. Hepatomegaly, splenomegaly, lower haemoglobin, higher eosinophil and higher blast percentages were identified to be independently associated with higher risk stratification of patients.
Contralateral delay activity, but not alpha lateralization, indexes prioritization of information for working memory storage
Authors: Schroeder Svea C. Y. , Aagten-Murphy David , Busch Niko A.
Published: March 2023

Working memory is inherently limited, which makes it important to select and maintain only task-relevant information and to protect it from distraction. Previous research has suggested the contralateral delay activity (CDA) and lateralized alpha oscillations as neural candidates for such a prioritization process. While most of this work focused on distraction during encoding, we examined the effect of external distraction presented during memory maintenance. Participants memorized the orientations of three lateralized objects. After an initial distraction-free maintenance interval, distractors appeared in the same location as the targets or in the opposite hemifield. This distraction was followed by another distraction-free interval. Our results show that CDA amplitudes were stronger in the interval before compared with the interval after the distraction (i.e., CDA amplitudes were stronger in response to targets compared with distractors). This amplitude reduction in response to distractors was more pronounced in participants with higher memory accuracy, indicating prioritization and maintenance of relevant over irrelevant information. In contrast, alpha lateralization did not change from the interval before distraction compared with the interval after distraction, and we found no correlation between alpha lateralization and memory accuracy. These results suggest that alpha lateralization plays no direct role in either selective maintenance of task-relevant information or inhibition of distractors. Instead, alpha lateralization reflects the current allocation of spatial attention to the most salient information regardless of task-relevance. In contrast, CDA indicates flexible allocation of working memory resources depending on task-relevance.
A comparison between different variants of the spatial Stroop task: The influence of analytic flexibility on Stroop effect estimates and reliability

Published: March 2023

The spatial Stroop task measures the ability to resolve interference between relevant and irrelevant spatial information. We recently proposed a four-choice spatial Stroop task that ensures methodological advantages over the original color-word verbal Stroop task, requiring participants to indicate the direction of an arrow while ignoring its position in one of the screen corners. However, its peripheral spatial arrangement might represent a methodological weakness and could introduce experimental confounds. Thus, aiming at improving our “Peripheral” spatial Stroop, we designed and made available five novel spatial Stroop tasks (Perifoveal, Navon, Figure-Ground, Flanker, and Saliency), wherein the stimuli appeared at the center of the screen. In a within-subjects online study, we compared the six versions to identify which task produced the largest but also the most reliable and robust Stroop effect. Indeed, although internal reliability is frequently overlooked, its estimate is fundamental, also in light of the recently proposed reliability paradox. Data analyses were performed using both the classical general linear model analytical approach and two multilevel modelling approaches (linear mixed models and random coefficient analysis), which specifically served for more accurately estimating the Stroop effect by explaining intra-subject, trial-by-trial variability. We then assessed our results based on their robustness to such analytic flexibility. Overall, our results indicate that the Perifoveal spatial Stroop is the best alternative task for its statistical properties and methodological advantages. Interestingly, our results also indicate that the Peripheral and Perifoveal Stroop effects were not only the largest, but also those with highest and most robust internal reliability.
Philosophical Anthropology and the Concept of Human Nature in the Contemporary Society
Authors: Obasi Samuel Ugochukwu
Published: March 2023

The problem is that, in contemporary society in which we live, there seems to be a negligence in identifying what is in conformity with human nature than the contrary. The over-riding issue is “workability” whether good or bad, to the detriment of goodness (virtue). Analytically, this work sets out to underscore the fact that prior to the contemporary society, virtuous living thrived so much. It was observed that there was a shift from the ocentricism to secularism. Cultural infiltrations balked the long existing primordial cultures, diverting man’s attention to what is in vogue without any consideration to its incongruity to human nature. Therefore, for man to re-determine himself, there must be a counter-shift to virtuous living in tandem with his nature.

Akım ve sediment ölçümü yapılan 47 havzada, havzaların morfolojik özellikleri Coğrafi Bilgi sistemleri (CBS) ile belirlenerek, çoklu regresyon analizi ile Türkiye’nin farklı yağış rejimi bölgeleri için sediment verimi tahmin modelleri geliştirilmiştir. ILWIS CBS yazılımı ile her havzanın maksimum rölyefi, akarsu derecesi, istasyon kotu ve havza alanı belirlenmiştir. Ölçülen değerler ve CBS ile belirlenen havza özellikleri, en iyi alt grup istatistik yöntemi kullanılarak, sediment verimi tahmininde en uygun havza parametreleri belirlenmiştir. Bu parametreler, çoklu regresyon analizinde kullanılarak yağış bölgeleri için ayrı ayrı sediment verimi tahmin modelleri geliştirilmiştir. Modellerin tahmin yeteneğini belirlemede ise Nash-Sutcliffe verimlilik katsayısı kullanılmıştır. Bu denklemlerin, çalışılan bölgelerdeki akım ve sediment gözlemi olmayan havzalarda, havza sediment verimi tahmini için ön fikir vermesi açısından uygun olduğu görülmüştür. Ayrıca, Türkiye’nin yağış rejimi benzeyen 5 bölgesinde (2, 3, 4, 5 ve 7) sediment ölçümü olmayan havzalar için sediment verimi tahmin denklemleri geliştirilebilmiştir. Nash-Sutcliffe verimlilik katsayısına göre (E>0.90) en iyi tahmin denklemi 4. 5. ve 7. Bölgeler için geliştirilmiştir. 1. Bölge için yeterli havza ve akım gözlem istasyonu sayısı olmadığından tahmin denklemi geliştirilememiştir. 6. Bölge için geliştirilen tahmin denkleminin Nash-Sutcliffe verimlilik katsayısına göre uygun olmadığı görülmüştür. 1. ve 6. Bölgeler için akım ve sediment verimi ölçüm istasyonlarının sayısı artırılmalıdır.

Authors: Haji Nour Sa Ad Mohamed , Horuz Sümer
Published: March 2023

This study tested the efficacy of five different phosphites (calcium, copper, magnesium, potassium and zinc/manganese phosphites) and a fungicide Fosetyl-Aluminum to inhibit bacterial speck disease severity caused by Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato (Pst) on tomato leaves. The phosphites were applied at the recommended doses to the Pst inoculated plants in pots by foliar spraying at one-week intervals for a total of 4 weeks. The plants were kept in a controlled greenhouse under relative humidity (%75-90) and temperature (22-24 °C) until disease symptoms appeared in the control plants. Phosphites and Fosetyl-Aluminum inhibited the Pst symptoms on tomato leaves by 42.1-75.0% in the first and 22.8-90.3% in the second experiments. This study demonstrated the direct influence of phosphites on tomato bacterial speck. The study suggested that phosphites can be an effective alternative for the chemical control of tomato bacterial disease. The bacterial agent, Pst, causes bacterial speck disease in tomatoes. The initial symptoms of the disease are water-soaked, small dark brown spots surrounded by a yellow halo on tomato leaves. Since the pathogen is seed-borne, control of the disease is difficult.

Published: March 2023

In this study, both the business structure and the socio-economic structures of the employees in 13 active aquaculture processing plants operating in Istanbul were examined and it was aimed to reveal the data in social and economic terms. In the study, a 24-question questionnaire for employees and a 15-question questionnaire to evaluate the business structure were presented. It was seen that 52% of the employees were men and 48% were women and 34.29% were in the 31-40 age range. It was found that 73.14% of the respondents were married and most of them lived in apartments under 120m2. In the multiple compliance analyzes, it was determined that there was a relationship between education level and the number of social media uses, and between monthly income and job satisfaction. It was determined that 31% of the 13 enterprises in the study had an export permit and that the HACCP system was applied in all of them. It was seen that only 38% of the enterprises received state support. The problems and solution proposals of the sector are also put forward in titles. Turkey's aquaculture sector and the processing plants connected to this sector are very important in economic terms. With the two different survey applications used, both a different perspective on employee data and important data on general problems within the scope of the facility were revealed. When the importance of Istanbul and the aquaculture processing sector is considered, the originality of the study is revealed.

Araştırmada siyah meyveli bir mahalli çeşit olan ‘tatlı mersin’ genotipinin sürgün uçları materyal olarak kullanılmıştır. Bu çalışma ile ortama eklenen bor konsantrasyonlarından toksisite problemi yaratabilecek bor (B) uygulamaları ile olası B stresi altında mersin bitkisinin morfolojik ve biyokimyasal özelliklerdeki değişimleri incelenmiştir. Bu amaçla 6 farklı borik asit (H3BO3) dozu (12.4 mg L-1, 18.6 mg L-1, 24.8 mg L-1, 31 mg L-1, 37.2 mg L-1, 43.4 mg L-1) Murashige ve Skoog (MS) ortamına eklenmiş ve kontrol grubu ile birlikte bitkilerin gelişimleri takip edilmiştir. Araştırmada kontrol ortamındaki bitkilere yalnızca MS ortam içeriğindeki standart B miktarı (6.2 mg L-1) ilave edilmiştir. Araştırmada, en yüksek prolin miktarı 43.4 mg L-1 uygulamasında 11.6 µg ml-1 olarak elde edilirken, en düşük prolin miktarı kontrol grubunda 3.3 µg ml-1 olarak belirlenmiştir. Askorbat peroksidaz (APX), süperoksit dismutaz (SOD), peroksidaz (POD) enzim aktiviteleri uygulama dozları arttıkça yükselmiş, en düşük değer kontrol grubundaki bitkilerde belirlenmiştir. Sonuç olarak; yetiştirme ortamına eklenen H3BO3 miktarı arttıkça özellikle askorbat peroksidaz, katalaz, süperoksit dismutaz ve peroksidaz gibi stres mekanizmasında rol alan enzimatik antioksidan aktivitelerinde önemli derecede artış gözlenmiştir.

Bu çalışmada son yıllarda ürünlerin hasat sonrası ömrünün uzatılmasında sıklıkla kullanılmaya başlanan salisilik asidin kültür mantarlarında soğukta muhafaza süresince kalite özelliklerine etkileri incelenmiştir. Hasat edilen mantarlar farklı dozlardaki (0, 1, 2 ve 4 mM) salisilik asit çözeltilere 3 dakika süreyle batırılmıştır. 4 °C ve %90-95 oransal nem içeren depoda 15 gün süreyle muhafaza edilen örneklerde 5 gün aralıkla fiziksel ve biyokimyasal kalite analizleri yapılmıştır. 15 günlük muhafaza süresince mantarlarda salisilik asit uygulamalarının kalite özelliklerini koruduğu saptanmıştır. Salisilik asit uygulamaları kontrol ile karşılaştırıldığında mantarlarda ağırlık kaybını azaltmıştır. Ayrıca bütün dozlar sertlik, toplam antioksidan aktivite ve titre edilebilir asitlik değerlerinin korunmasında etkili olmuştur. Ancak 2 ve 4 mM salisilik asit uygulanan mantarlarda ilerleyen muhafaza süresi ile birlikte kararma meydana geldiğinden bu dozlar kalite kayıplarına neden olmuştur. Yüksek doz uygulanmış şapkalarda meydana gelen kararmalar nedeniyle 1 mM dozlu salisilik asit uygulamasının kalite özelliklerini korumada daha uygun olduğu belirlenmiştir.
