Mechanical analysis of hybrid structured aircraft wing ribs with different geometric gaps
Authors: Akdoğan Tümay Battal , Sülü İsmail Yasin
Published: July 2024

Wing ribs, which play a critical role in aviation, are an important design element, especially for unmanned aerial vehicles. Aircraft wing ribs are structural elements that generally extend from the wing root to the tip, used to maintain the shape of the wing, provide aerodynamic stability and add durability to the wing surface. In this study, the wing root rib of the MQ-1B Predator unmanned aerial vehicle were modeled with cavities with different geometric structures and its mechanical behavior were examined. Wing rib structures were created from circular, elliptical, slot and beam geometry gaps. The hybrid structure was created by considering the combined use of Carbon–Kevlar–Aramid. In the hybrid structure, the thickness of each fiber layer was taken into account as 0.25 mm and the wing rib consisted of six layers. The effects of different fiber angles in hybrid composite structures were also examined. As a result of the analyses, equivalent stress (von-Mises stress) and total deformation results were examined.

Published: July 2024

Demographic change is causing society to age. At the same time, technological progress is changing the way ageing individuals are cared for and medically treated. Several smart wearables and garments have recently been developed for this purpose. Based on previous research, we see a research gap in the use of smart clothing in the care and support of elderly people, especially with regard to concrete application potentials and example products. The aim of this study was to provide an overview of the latest studies and developments in smart clothing with a focus on usability and acceptance for an elderly individuals. A systematic literature search was performed in five databases using a predefined set of keyword. A total of 169 articles published between 1/2000 and 2/2023 were identified and assessed. The literature search followed a previously prepared research protocol according to the criteria of a systematic literature search. The research field of smart clothing is expanding with smart shirts being a major focus; however other products are also being investigated, each with specific capabilities. In particular, vital parameters are constantly optimized; representative products are described and assessed according to their potential applicability to elderly people. The future applications of smart clothing in health care are promising. Many studies on basic applications of smart textiles have been done, and some studies have already involved older people. Furthermore, newly developed suggestions for possible categorizations of smart wearables as well as smart clothing as a subtype are presented based on the researched literature. We found an overall positive impression of the development and application of smart clothing, especially in geriatric settings. However, aspects such as data collection, skin compatibility, wearing comfort, and integration of geriatric factors into known acceptance models need further investigation. Over the last two decades, there have been many developments in the field of smart clothing. For the care and support of elderly people, smart clothing is an important development with great potential. Continued advancement in these products is needed to adequately address the special needs of older people.

Published: July 2024

In recent years, the massive use of pharmaceuticals has led to the detection of a large number of relevant residues in water. As emerging contaminants, pharmaceuticals residues in the environment pose a major threat to human health and ecosystems. Covalent organic polymers (COPs) possess high stability, uniform pore size, and easy functionalization, which have attracted great attention in water treatment. In this study, a novel covalent organic polymer was successfully studied by a simple synthesis method, combining p-phenylenediamine (Pd) and isophthalaldehyde (Is) via a Schiff-base (referred to PdIs-COP), which was used as an absorbent for the removal of indomethacin from aqueous solutions. The composite was characterized with scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) specific surface area and thermogravimetric (TGA) analysis. The effect of changes in the pH values and the adsorption time on the adsorption capacity was also investigated. The results of this study indicated that the absorbent had a high adsorption capacity for indomethacin. The adsorption capacity of PdIs-COP for indomethacin is 92.86 mg g−1 at pH of five and a contact time of 2 min. This shows that PdIs-COP is a novel material with good affinity for pharmaceuticals.
Pharmacological Enhancement of Dopamine Neurotransmission Does Not Affect Illusory Pattern Perception

Published: July 2024

Psychotic symptoms and delusional beliefs have been linked to dopamine transmission in both healthy and clinical samples and are assumed to result at least in part from perceiving illusory patterns in noise. However, the existing literature on the role of dopamine in detecting patterns in noise is inconclusive. To address this issue, we assessed the effect of manipulating dopaminergic neurotransmission on illusory pattern perception in healthy individuals (n = 48,n = 19 female) in a double-blind placebo-controlled within-subjects design (see preregistration athttps://osf.io/a4k9j/). We predicted individuals on versus off ʟ-DOPA to be more likely to perceive illusory patterns, specifically objects in images containing only noise. Using a signal detection model, however, we found no credible evidence that ʟ-DOPA compared with placebo increased false alarm rates. Further, ʟ-DOPA did not reliably modulate measures of accuracy, discrimination sensitivity, and response bias. In all cases, Bayesian statistics revealed strong evidence in favor of the null hypothesis. The task design followed previous work on illusory pattern perception and comprised a limited number of items per condition. The results therefore need to be interpreted with caution, as power was limited. Future studies should address illusory pattern perception using more items and take into account potential dose-dependent effects and differential effects in healthy versus clinical samples.

Published: July 2024

Chronic neuropathic pain can result from nervous system injury and can persist in the absence of external stimuli. Although ongoing pain characterizes the disorder, in many individuals, the intensity of this ongoing pain fluctuates dramatically. Previously, it was identified that functional magnetic resonance imaging signal covariations between the midbrain periaqueductal gray (PAG) matter, rostral ventromedial medulla (RVM), and spinal trigeminal nucleus are associated with moment-to-moment fluctuations in pain intensity in individuals with painful trigeminal neuropathy (PTN). Since this brainstem circuit is modulated by higher brain input, we sought to determine which cortical sites might be influencing this brainstem network during spontaneous fluctuations in pain intensity. Over 12 min, we recorded the ongoing pain intensity in 24 PTN participants and classified them as fluctuating (n = 13) or stable (n = 11). Using a PAG seed, we identified connections between the PAG and emotional-affective sites such as the hippocampal and posterior cingulate cortices, the sensory-discriminative posterior insula, and cognitive-affective sites such as the dorsolateral prefrontal (dlPFC) and subgenual anterior cingulate cortices that were altered dependent on spontaneous high and low pain intensity. Additionally, sliding-window functional connectivity analysis revealed that the dlPFC–PAG connection anticorrelated with perceived pain intensity over the entire 12 min period. These findings reveal cortical systems underlying moment-to-moment changes in perceived pain in PTN, which likely cause dysregulation in the brainstem circuits previously identified, and consequently alter the appraisal of pain across time.
Istraživanje, razvoj i inovacije u Hrvatskoj (prvi dio) – Nacionalni inovacijski sustav i strateški dokumenti do 2020.
Authors: Banić Tomišić Zrinka , Crnić Duplančić Ivana
Published: July 2024

Inovacije su ključne za razvoj gospodarstva i društva. Hrvatska je još krajem prošlog stoljeća počela razvijati inovacijski sustav, a odgovarajuće strategije i politike nakon ulaska u EU veže uz europske. One su važne za sve dionike inovacijskog sustava, posebice znanstvenu zajednicu i poslovni sektor jer, među ostalim, financijska sredstava usmjeravaju u prioritetna područja i aktivnosti. Dobro postavljen inovacijski sustav i dobro usmjerene inovacijske strategije preduvjeti su za kompetitivnost gospodarstva i bogatstvo društva.

Ovaj rad donosi pregled strateških dokumenata u području inovacija i razvoja nacionalnog inovacijskog sustava (NIS), s posebnim fokusom na Strategiju pametne specijalizacije (S3) 2016. – 2020., te preporuke međunarodnih organizacija za unaprjeđenje istraživanja, razvoja i inovacija (IRI) u Hrvatskoj. Glavnim dosadašnjim rezultatima u području IRI-ja i razvoja NIS-a može se smatrati sljedeće: 1) prepoznata je važnost IRI-ja za gospodarstvo i društvo te potreba suradnje znanstvene zajednice s poslovnim sektorom i komercijalizacije rezultata istraživanja; 2) ministarstva nadležna za znanost i gospodarstvo postala su sunadležna za inovacijske strategije; 3) donesene su prve inovacijske strategije; 4) proces poduzetničkog otkrivanja, kao temelj S3, postao je i temelj NIS-a (pristup “odozdo prema gore”); 5) osnovane su agencije/institucije za financiranje projekata IRI-ja; 6) osnovani su uredi za transfer znanja i tehnologije da bi se podržala komercijalizacija rezultata istraživanja i ojačala suradnja znanstvene zajednice i poslovnog sektora; 7) povećana su ukupna ulaganja u IRI.

Daljnji razvoj NIS-a, rezultati IRI-ja te potencijalni pomak Hrvatske na ljestvicama uspjeha u inoviranju uvelike će ovisiti o implementaciji međunarodnih preporuka u S3 do 2029. kao i o provedbi S3 u praksi.
Challenges of Microplastics

Published: July 2024

Mikroplastika (MP) posljednjih desetak godina izaziva zabrinutost znanstvene zajednice zbog velike prisutnosti u okolišu, dok mogući štetni učinci još nisu u potpunosti poznati. MP su čvrste, polimerne čestice, s dodanim aditivima, netopljive u vodi dimenzija od 1 µm do 5 mm. Dosad je dokazana prisutnost MP-a u različitim dijelovima okoliša, poput tla, oceana, jezera, sedimenata i izoliranih područja poput Marijanske brazde. Ljudi su izloženi MP-u unosom kontaminirane hrane. Mnogobrojna istraživanja rezultirala su pronalaskom znatne količine MP-a u pitkoj vodi, flaširanim pićima, soli, morskoj hrani i sl. Zakonska ograničenja i dalje nisu na izravan način obuhvatila MP kao skupinu onečišćivala, ali se direktivom EU-a do 2024. godine želi usvojiti metodologija za kvantificiranje MP-a s ciljem uvrštavanja MP-a na popis praćenih onečišćavala. Postojeće metode analize MP-a, iako u razvoju, najčešće uključuju spektroskopske metode poput infracrvene spektroskopije s Furierovom transformacijom (FTIR) i Ramanove spektroskopije, koje mogu pružiti informaciju o veličini, broju i obliku čestice, ali i o tipu polimera. No, unatoč napretku, još uvijek ne postoje standardizirane metode za usporedbu rezultata različitih istraživanja. U ovom preglednom radu glavni je cilj pružiti pregled metoda analize i izazova s kojima se istraživači suočavaju. Kroz analizu raznih metoda, poput destruktivnih (pirolize) i nedestruktivnih (kao što su spektroskopske metode), dobiva se širi uvid u tipove polimera, broj, veličinu i oblik čestica. Međutim, nedostatak standardiziranih protokola za pripremu uzorka, analizu i obradu podataka otežava usporedbu rezultata i smanjuje pouzdanost istraživanja. Stoga je ključno propisati eksperimentalne uvjete da bi se osigurala kvaliteta istraživanja i omogućila meta-analiza te pregled prisutnosti MP-a u različitim okolišnim matricama.
The Relationship between Discrimination Victim Experience and Discriminatory Behavior among Elementary School Students: The Mediation Effect of Depression and the Moderated Mediation Effect of Perceived Respect for Human Rights
Authors: Choi Insuk
Published: July 2024

The purpose of this study is to examine the mediation effect of depression and moderated mediation effect of perceived respect for human rights between discrimination victim experience and discrimination behavior among elementary school students. Data collected from the Korean Human Rights Practices Survey for Children and Adolescents (Kim et al., 2022) were used to analyze the data of 2,994 students in early adolescence. The analyses were conducted using SPSS 25.0 and the Process Macro for SPSS 4.1 (Hayes, 2022), model 4 and model 7. The results showed that the mediating effect of depression between elementary school students' discrimination victim experience and discriminatory behavior was significant. In addition, the moderating effect of perceived respect for human rights was found in the relationship between their discrimination victim experience and depression. Finally, the moderated mediating effect of perceived respect for human rights was significant, and the mediating effect became smaller as the level of respect for human rights increased. This study confirms the direct effect of discrimination victim experience on discriminatory behavior, the indirect effect through depression, and the moderated mediating effect of respect for human rights, providing empirical data for prevention and intervention of discriminatory behavior from early adolescence.
Work-Parenting Gains and Strains for Dual-Earner Parents with Early Adolescent Children: Application of the Autoregressive Cross-Lagged Model (ACLM) and the Actor-Partner Interdependence Model (APIM)
Authors: Shin Hye-Yong , Park Jihyeon , Lee Kangyi , Park Youjeong
Published: July 2024

This study examines whether the perceived gains and strains experienced by dual-earner parents with early adolescent children in balancing work and parenting have an impact not only on themselves but also on their spouses over time. Using data from the Korean Children and Youth Panel Survey(12th to 14th waves), involving 400 pairs of parents( 800 individuals) with both parents employed, responses were analyzed through the autoregressive cross-lagged modeling(ACLM) and the actor-partner interdependence model(APIM). First, the results revealed that perceptions of work-parenting gains were generally higher than the medium for both parents, with mothers slightly lower than fathers, whereas perceptions of the strains were generally lower than medium for both parents, with mothers slightly higher than fathers. Second, the perceived gains and strains of parents in balancing work and parenting had a positive impact on their own perceptions the following year. Third, while fathers' perceptions did not influence mothers' perceptions, mothers' perceptions had a positive impact on fathers' perceptions the following year. These findings underscore the necessity of communication support to facilitate dual- earner parents in maintaining a continual balance between work and childcare responsibilities as collaborative partners.
Politeness strategies in Oprah Winfred’s talk show “Adele one night only “: gender and cultural pragmatics study
Authors: Surjowati Ribut , Kusnowati Siti
Published: July 2024

The purpose of this paper is analyzing the types of politeness strategies employed by Oprah Winfred (OW) in her interview with Adel, a famous American singer, in her program called Adele One Night Only. it is descriptive qualitative study within the framework of pragmatic study. 12 data were obtained from YouTube which presented a talk show entitled “Adele One Night Only” hosted by Oprah Winfrey. The data were analysed using Brown’s and Levinson’s (1987) theory of politeness.  The analysis started by exploring the forms of negative politeness from the host’s utterances, and continued to the forms of negative politeness. In each of the analysis, the writer explained the host’s hidden purposes and the expectations from the interviewee and the correlation between gender, culture and types of politeness strategies used from the point of communication aims and cultural values.The findings shows that OW used positive politeness with eight different strategies and  negative politeness with 4 different strategies. The politeness strategies employed by OW were meant to build friendly and warm communication as if they are intimate friends and these findings support the theory that most women like talking which aims to keep in touch, especially with friends and relatives.
Copula and Focus Marker in Central Yorùbá Dialects
Authors: Ọláńrewájú Emmanuel Ọmọniyì
Published: July 2024

This paper investigated the morpho-syntactic distribution of ‘’ni’’ in Central Yorùbá (hence, CY) dialect. Primary and secondary data were collected on CY dialects (Ifẹ̀, Ìjẹ̀ṣà, Èkìtì and Mọ̀bà) and subjected to syntactic analysis. Noam Chomsky’s Minimalist Program (MP) of generative grammar was adopted.  Two allomorphs of ni identified are: li and ri. The dialects operate ‘’ni’’, ‘’li’’ and ‘’ri’’ as focus markers. These also have their variants that perform predicate function. These are referred to as copula in this paper. Both copula and focus markers are in complementary distribution. ‘’Ni’’ and ‘’li’’ are in free variation in Èkitì and Mọ́bà unlike Ifẹ̀ and Ìjẹ̀ṣa where they are in complementary distribution. Mọ̀bà dialect operates both the focus marker ‘’ri’’ and its copula variant ‘’ri’’ while other CY dialects operate ‘’ri’’ only as a copula. A focus marker is optionally dropped when used with some question nouns (QNs) in the dialects. Three syntactic distributions identified with ‘’ni’’ and its variants are: focused interrogatives, focus constructions and copula constructions. CY dialects exhibit some common features with respect to how both focus markers and copula are operated.
The Effect of Treating Heavy Oil with Isopropyl Alcohol on the Composition and Structure of Resins

Published: July 2024

Исследовано влияние обработки тяжелой нефти изопропиловым спиртом (ИПС) в течение 8 ч при температурах 25–100 °С на состав и структуру смолистых веществ. В качестве объектов исследования использовалась тяжелая нефть Зюзеевского месторождения (Республика Татарстан) и смолистые вещества, выделенные из этой нефти. Установлено, что после обработки тяжелой нефти ИПС при 100 °С содержание смол в полученной нефтяной системе возрастает практически на 3 мас. %. Показано, что при увеличении температуры обработки смеси “нефть – ИПС (20 мас. %)” от 25 до 100 °С в смолистых веществах повышается содержание серы и кислорода на 0.5 и 0.8 мас. % соответственно и уменьшается атомное отношение Н/С от 1.40 до 1.38. При этом на 0.17 % возрастает фактор ароматичности смол со снижением доли алифатического углерода. Сделано заключение, что обработка нефти изопропиловым спиртом для модификации высокомолекулярных соединений с целью снижения содержания в системе смолисто-асфальтеновых веществ нецелесообразна, так как приводит к нежелательному образованию дополнительного количества смол.

The effect of heavy oil treatment with isopropyl alcohol (IPA) for 8 h at a temperature of 25–100 °C on the composition and structure of resins is investigated. The objects of investigation were heavy oil from the Zyuzeevskoye field (the Republic of Tatarstan) and resins isolated from this oil. It is established that the resin content increases by almost 3 wt% as a result of heavy oil treatment with IPA at 100 °C. It is shown than an increase in the temperature of oil – IPA (20 wt%) mixture treatment from 25 to 100 °C causes an increase in sulphur and oxygen content in resins by 0.5 and 0.8 wt%, respectively, and a decrease in the Н/С atomic ratio from 1.40 to 1.38. The aromaticity factor of resins increases by 0.17 %, while the fraction of aliphatic carbon decreases. It is concluded that oil treatment with isopropyl alcohol, aimed at a decrease in the content of resinous and asphaltenic substances, is unreasonable because it causes unfavourable formation of the additional amount of resins.

Intraparotid lipoma: a diagnostic perplexity
Authors: Sharma Sonam , Bhadwal Arushi
Published: July 2024

Lipoma, a benign tumor composed of mature adipocytes, rarely makes clinicians inquisitive as it has an excellent prognosis. It is interestingly the most common and less concerned mesenchymal tumor in the adult age group. Mostly, reported in subcutaneous tissue but can be deep-seated also. However, lipoma at unusual locations like the parotid gland are often less studied and account for up to 0.6-4.4% of all documented benign parotid gland tumors. A 58-year-old female presented with a complaint of right cheek swelling which was insidious in onset, progressively increasing in size, and painless with no history of dysphagia or odynophagia. Local examination revealed a soft mobile mass with an intact facial nerve function test. Fine needle aspiration cytology of the lesion revealed findings of lipoma. The patient underwent surgical excision for the same after confirmation with radiology. Histopathology of the resected tumor confirmed features of an intraparotid lipoma. Thus, an accurate sequential approach can help plan for definitive surgery and tumor removal without risk of recurrence.
Research on Higher Education Policy Directions: Content Analysis of Strategic Documents/Istraživanje smjerova politika visokoga obrazovanja: analiza sadržaja razvojno-strategijskih dokumenata
Authors: Jurcevic Ruzica , Horvat Zoran
Published: July 2024

AbstractThis paper presents the results of a survey conducted in 2022, the purpose of which was to investigate the prevailing paradigmatic directions of higher education policy. The method of qualitative content analysis was used for the survey, and the analysis included 15 international and European strategic documents on higher and university education. The research hypothesis was that the concepts belonging to the neoliberal paradigmatic orientation of higher education policy are more represented in the selected documents than the concepts corresponding to the humanistic orientation, and that there are differences between international and European documents in terms of orientation towards a specific policy direction. The results of the research show that in the majority of the selected documents there is more emphasis on activities that correspond to the neoliberal orientation of the policy, such as the need to link higher education to the labor market, the commercialization of research results, and the role of universities in economic progress, and less emphasis on the role of higher education in the enlightenment and emancipation of the individual, which is associated with the humanistic orientation. The t-test revealed a statistically significant difference among the documents in the presentation of neoliberal and humanistic concepts.Key words: educational policy; globalization; humanistic idea; neoliberalism; university.---SažetakU radu su predstavljeni rezultati istraživanja provedenoga 2022. godine s ciljem ispitivanja dominantnih paradigmatskih smjerova politika visokoga obrazovanja. U istraživanju je korištena kvalitativna metoda analize sadržaja, a analizom je obuhvaćeno 15 međunarodnih i europskih razvojno-strategijskih dokumenata o visokom obrazovanju i sveučilištu. Temeljna hipoteza istraživanja bila je da su u odabranim dokumentima zastupljeniji koncepti koji se mogu pripisati neoliberalnom paradigmatskom smjeru politika visokoga obrazovanja nego oni koji odgovaraju humanističkom, kao i da postoje razlike između međunarodnih i europskih dokumenata u usmjerenosti prema određenom smjeru politika. Rezultati istraživanja pokazali su da se u većini odabranih dokumenata više naglašava nužnost povezivanja visokoga obrazovanja s tržištem rada, komercijalizacija rezultata istraživanja i uloga sveučilišta u gospodarskom napretku, što odgovara neoliberalnom smjeru politika, a manje uloga visokoga obrazovanja u prosvjetljenju i emancipaciji pojedinca, što se veže uz humanistički smjer. Provedenim t-testom utvrđena je statistički značajna razlika u zastupljenosti neoliberalnih i humanističkih koncepata između dokumenata.Ključne riječi: globalizacija; humanistička ideja; neoliberalizam; politike obrazovanja; sveučilište.
A munkamemória, a végrehajtó funkciók és a figyelemkoncentráció vizsgálatának, továbbá a becslőskálák felhasználásának jelentősége az aktivitás- és figyelemzavar diagnosztikai megközelítésében
Authors: Horváth Dorottya , Harmath-Tánczos Tímea
Published: July 2024

Háttér és célkitűzések: Jelen kutatás az aktivitás- és figyelemzavarral élő tanulók munkamemória, végrehajtó funkciók és figyelemkoncentráció tekintetében nyújtott teljesítményét, továbbá a viselkedésük tükrében tett szülői észrevételeket veszi górcső alá. Kérdésfeltevésként fogalmazódott meg, hogy a verbális munkamemória-feladatokon elért eredmények vajon bejósolják-e a komplex munkamemória-működést? Kirajzolódik-e a szignifikáns különbség a farmakoterápiás ellátásban részesülő, illetve nem részesülő tanulók figyelemkoncentrációs teljesítménye között, s ha igen, képesek-e detektálni a teljesítménybeli különbségeket a szülők? Módszer: A munkamemória mérésekor az álszóismétlési, a hallási mondatterjedelem, a számterjedelem és a fordított számterjedelem tesztek, míg a végrehajtó funkciók megismerésekor a verbális fluencia tesztek kerültek felhasználásra. A figyelmi működés megismerésére a d2-R teszt irányult, a szülői észrevételeket pedig a Conners Gyermek Magatartás Kérdőív tükrében értékeltük. A vizsgálatban 71 fő ADHD diagnózissal rendelkező, ép intellektusú, 9–14 éves tanuló vett részt. Csoportok a javasolt farmakoterápia megvalósulása és meg nem valósulása mentén különültek el. Eredmények: A d2-R teszt összpontosítási teljesítmény mutatója, s annak a feldolgozási sebességgel vagy a hibaszázalékkal való kapcsolata jelezte legmegbízhatóbban a figyelmi érintettség súlyosságát. A verbális munkamemóriát mérő teszteken elért eredmények bejósolták a komplex munkamemória működést. A d2-R teszt minden mutatója mentén szignifikánsan gyengébben teljesítettek a farmakoterápiában nem részesülő tanulók. A munkamemóriát, a figyelmi és a végrehajtó működést mérő eljárásokban nyújtott eredmények nem jósolták be a tanulók viselkedésére vonatkozó szülői megítéléseket. Következtetések: Jelen kutatás előkészíti az ADHD diagnosztikai eszköztárának specifikálását, az eredmények alátámasztják a farmakoterápiás ellátás elutasításának tüneti hátrányait, s kérdéseket körvonalaznak az ADHD szülői megítélése, a metabolikus pszichiátriai szempontokat figyelembe vevő megsegítés, továbbá a felnőttkori ADHD-s populáció vizsgálatának irányába.
Psychedelic intimacy: Altered states of consciousness in romantic relationships
Authors: Neubert Jonas J. , Anderson Katie , Mason Natasha L.
Published: July 2024

Objective

Engaging in practices of intimacy meant to develop and sustain intimacy can be beneficial for couples. Psychoactive substances such as 3,4-Methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA) have shown to facilitate bonding within couples and it is hypothesised that classic psychedelics, due to their property to increase prosocial behaviours, can similarly promote interactional intimacy. This study explores shared experiences of altered states of consciousness within romantic couples and their impact on intimacy in relationships.

Participants

Twelve participants (six couples) between 19 and 29 years of age who had used psychedelics with their current partner were recruited.

Method

Qualitative data was gathered via simultaneous interviews with both members of a couple. The semi-structured interviews featured an in-depth exploration of multiple shared psychedelic experiences. Reflexive thematic analysis was employed to analyse the resulting transcripts.

Results

Three themes with subsequent subthemes were identified, portraying couples' experiences during psychedelic-induced altered states of consciousness: navigating anxiety (subthemes: novelty, preparation, shifting environment, and calming presence), reshaping practices (subthemes: excessive worrying, spirited discussions, and straight talking), and encountering bliss (subthemes: meeting the unexpected, the beauty around us, leaving the everyday behind, and breaking through).

Conclusions

Couples' experiences with classic psychedelics align with criteria for interactional intimacy (i.e., self-exposure, positive involvement, and shared understanding), but their distinct nature warrants a novel definition of psychedelic intimacy. The unique pair bonding during shared psychedelic experiences could be utilized by psychedelic-assisted couples therapy.

The image and text message become interesting since some readers feel it as a mere entertainment. However, to see the interpretation is through the perspective of linguistics. The theory of semiotics used analyze the point of view and meaning of images and writings that are represented.  By using the connotation and denotation meaning contained in semiotics, the language used is analyzed. The method used in this research is qualitative to describe the statement or the existing picture. The purpose of this study is to get understanding about image and text message illustrated on the back of the truck. The conclusion is that every writing and illustration illustrated in the truck has its own purpose which leads to the attention and criticism of the society towards the development of the era so that the meaning becomes part of the representation of some people who live on the streets.Keywords : image; text message;  truck; connotation; denotation
IDEOLOGI (DAN) ESTETIKA SENO GUMIRA AJIDARMA: SAKSI MATA DALAM RUANG PERJUMPAAN IDEOLOGIS
Authors: Arifin Moch Zainul
Published: July 2024

AbstrakTulisan ini mencoba menguraikan struktur ideologi Seno Gumira Adjidarma dalam Saksi Mata pada masa otoriter Orde Baru. Pisau analisis yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah teori kritik sastra materialisme Terry Eagleton yang mengasumsikan bahwa teks sastra tidak bertindak pasif, tetapi bertindak aktif menentukan proses produksi dan struktur ideologi yang melingkupinya. Dengan demikian, kritik sastra Eagleton melihat karya sastra dari aspek eksternal dan juga aspek internalnya. Berangkat dari hal itu, bagaimana Saksi Mata menawarkan bentuk kritik yang, tentu ideologis, dihadirkan guna mengguncang kekuasaan absolut Orde Baru? Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa, pertama, struktur ideologi dalam cerpen Saksi Mata meliputi prkatik material eksternal dan internal teks. Aspek eksternal teks merupakan hasil artikulasi dominasi Orde Baru. Untuk itu, Saksi Mata juga tidak luput dari pengaruh mobilisasi Soeharto, akan tetapi Seno dengan Saksi Mata mampu melawan kebijakan tersebut. Kedua, konstruksi internal teks yang sebetulnya ruang perjumpaan dan negosiasi ideologi-ideologi yang ada,  Saksi Mata berupaya menunjukkan kengerian totaliter Orde Baru. Akan tetapi, tentu dalam ruang politik yang represif, kritik dalam semangat kemanusiaan, keadilan dan kebebasan berpendapat ditransfor-masi dan dibungkus dalam cerpen Saksi Mata dengan bangunan satire dan khas komedi, sekaligus mengungkapkan kengeriannya.Kata Kunci: Struktur Ideologi, Estetika, Terry Eagleton
JARINGAN HABAIB DI JAWA ABAD 20
Authors: Permana Agus
Published: July 2024

Penelitian ini mempunyai dua tujuan yaitu pertama untuk mengetahui islamisasi di Jawa  dan kedua untuk mengetahui peran habaib di Betawi dalam proses islamisasi pada abad ke 70. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah metode penelitian sejarah dengan tahapan kerja pengumpulan data (heuristik), verifikasi (kritik), penafsiran (interpretasi) dan penulisan (historiografi). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa Islamisasi di Betawi selalu dikaitkan dengan awal penaklukan Betawi oleh Fatahilah sekitar tahun 1527 M. Akan Tetapi beberapa pengamat belakangan mengkritisi teori tersebut dan menyatakan bahwa Islamisasi di Betawi lebih tepat bila dikaitkan dengan ulama seperti Syekh Quro (Karawang), Datuk Ibrahim (Condet), Datu Biru (Jatinegara), Dato Tonggara (Cililitan), Mak Datu Tanjung Kait (Tangerang), Kumpi Datu (Depok). Dari penelitian ini juga diketahui bahwa pada abad ke 20 penyebaran dakwah Islam  di Jawa  semakin pesat dengan kedatangan para habaib dari Hadramaut. Eksistensi habaib di Jawa ini pada khirnya melahirkan jaringan habaib yang dibentuk baik secara geneologi, tradisi, organisasi, maupun peran dati tarekat alawiyah termasuk di dalamnya jaringan Rabithah alawiyah yang berdiri pada awal abad ke 20..

Published: July 2024

Penelitian terkait Sejarah Masuknya Habaib Ke Indramyu yang dilakukan oleh habaib yang berada di Kabupaten Indramayu serta perannya dalam dakwah agama Islam dalam kurun waktu 1998 sampai 2014. Adapun mayoritas habaib yang berada di Nusantara didominasi berasal dari Hadralmaut dan cukup besar penyebarannya, sementara itu penelitian ini lebih khusus hanya membahas habaib di wilayah Indramayu.Penelitian ini dilakukan bertujuan untuk mengetahui Kondisi keagamaan di Indramayu serta sejarah masuknya habaib di Indramayu yang tentunya memiliki beragam kegiatan untuk mensyiarkan dakwah Islam, juga menguatkan keislaman masyarakat di Indramayu. Metode penelitian yang digunakan penulis adalah  metode penelitian sejarah, yaitu penelitian yang mempelajari peristiwa atau kejadian masa lampau berdasarkan jejak-jejak yang dihasilkan, melalui empat tahap yaitu: heuristik  (pengumpulan sumber), kritik (kritik intern dan kritik ektern), interpretasi, dan historiografi (penulisan sejarah).             Berdasarkan penelitian tersebut dapat disimpulkan bahwa: pertama, kondisi keagaman di Indrmayu sama halnya dengan kondisi keagamaan yang lain yaitu memgang teguh agama Hindu-Budha Kedua, komunitas habaib ini datang dari Hadhramaut (Yaman) pada abad ke 18. Awalnya komunitas habaib yang ada di Indramayu masih tergolong komunitas Arab di Cirebon, akan tetapi pada tahun 1872 komunitas Indramayu memisahkan diri dari komunitas Arab Cirebon, dan menyebar ke seluruh daerah di Indramayu. Meskipun komunitas Arab-Indramayu lebih muda daripada komunitas Arab Cirebon, tetapi komunitas Arab di Indramayu lebih berkembang daripada komunitas Arab di Cirebon.
Women Empowerment Inequality at the Ministry of Religion
Authors: Sina Cian Ibnu
Published: July 2024

The purpose of this paper is to describe a gender-based human development profile in the religious field. This study uses Secondary Data Analysis, namely the Ministry of Religion in 2016 Figures. The findings show that the achievement of women's involvement in the Ministry of Religion is still far from balanced, there are still gaps. Only 33.67% of women occupying the positions of secretary general, directorate general of Islamic education and community service, only 34.41 percent of UIN state employees in Indonesia, 35.37% of R&D & religious staff, 40.68 percent of religious educators, and non-civil servants of religious educators. 32.31%, hafidzah 60.95%, board of judges 17.61%, mufassirah 19.75%, writer 20.51%, researcher 24.32%. The strategic position is still dominated by men, the highest number of women is in the hafidzah position (memorizing the Qur'an), while other positions that are far more strategic are still below 50%. This indicates that development in the field of religion even though women are still neglected, is not yet gender responsive.
The Concept of Divine Oneness: A Synthesis Between Sufistic Tauhid and Mulla Sadra’s Philosophy of Wujud
Authors: Lutfi Muhammad , Riyadi Abdul Kadir
Published: July 2024

This article discusses the relationship between Mulla Sadra's philosophy of existence and the sufistic concept of monotheism. Tauhid as an Islamic paradigm can be seen from several levels, including the belief that there is no God but Allah; experience and witness to the Oneness of Allah; and the philosophical construction of experience and witness to the Oneness of Allah. Tauhid in the first point reflects the general theological view, while the second and third points reflect the Sufism paradigm. And according to the theologians, the philosophical construction of the Oneness of God, which is called wahdah al-wujud, among other things, has come out of the Islamic creed. At that point, Mulla Sadra can become a strategic bridge because he synthesizes various previous philosophies into a distinctive philosophical system. From the building of his philosophy, Sadra has three important parts that talk about the philosophy of Being: asalah al-wujud, wahdah al- wujud, and tashqiq al- wujud. This philosophy of being will be dissected through the sufistic paradigm to provide an answer whether sufistic monotheism has violated the Islamic creed. The approach used is descriptiveanalysis. The main finding is that Mulla Sadra's philosophy of being is still related to monotheism, especially sufi monotheism, because Sadra does not deny Allah as the One Supreme Being, nor does he carry the idea of mono-existentialism like Ibn Arabi, which is the main goal of the theologians' criticism
The Concept of Love in Ibn Sina's Philosophical Mysticism: A Synthesis of Rationality and Sufism
Authors: Ramdani Dani , Bakhtiar Amsal
Published: July 2024

This article discusses Ibn Sina’s concept of love. Through this concept, the researcher wants to show that Ibn Sina's thought is not only identical to empirical, logical, and rational peripatetic philosophy, but also Sufistic. This study employed a qualitative method using a philosophical tasawwuf approach. The results show that everything that exists – whether animate or not – contains the energy of love in itself. Essentially, love is a manifestation of Allah, The Essence, who has qualities of Absolute Goodness and Perfection. In this case, God is The Subject of Love. Second, God as Absolute Goodness and Perfection is The Object of Love–the final destination movement of all that exists. Finally, through true love, people can be connected with their God, occupy the highest position, and achieve true happiness. According to Ibn Sina, humans in this stage are called Arif.
Ethical Discourse of Responsibility in The Covid19 Pandemic Humanitarian Disaster
Authors: Budiman Arip , Gibson al-Bustomi Ahmad
Published: July 2024

This article aims to elaborate on how Emmanuel Levinas' discourse on the ethics of responsibility applies to the humanitarian crisis caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Levinas offers a concrete ethical concept for addressing humanitarian issues, distinguishing himself from earlier ethical philosophy experts. The research method employed is qualitative, utilizing a literature review approach. The findings and discussion reveal that Levinas' perspective on the ethics of responsibility emphasizes concrete responsibility in encounters with the 'Face of the Other'. Furthermore, responsibility represents a form of human identity from a humanitarian perspective when facing the COVID-19 pandemic. According to Levinas, unconditional responsibility is not something we receive or a rule we agree to bind ourselves to, but rather something that exists before we make any decisions. Unconsciously, we already have unlimited responsibility towards others. The conclusion drawn is that adhering to health protocols is a concrete manifestation of Levinas' ethics of responsibility in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, as it is oriented towards the safety of others. Levinas' ethics of responsibility is asymmetrical. The ethical discourse on responsibility discussed in this study is limited to the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, thus it has limitations in broader explanations. Although Levinas' grand ideas may not suffice to solve all the ethical issues we face, their strength lies in reminding us of the inherent nature of ethical demands that should underpin all moral theories. Levinas invites us to reconsider the essence of ethical responsibility, which transcends formal rules and agreements, towards a deeper understanding of our relationships with others
From Ancient to Islam: A Political Philosophy Perspective on The Sundanese Triumvirate
Authors: Mustapa Hasan , Gozali Nanang , Naan Naan
Published: July 2024

Political leadership in Sundanese civilisation has existed since the 15th century. Although the mechanics of power transition have evolved ideologically, Tri Tangtu Di Bumi, a philosophical ideal of leadership, is still embedded in Sundanese society's social structure. This knowledge has evolved from the ancient (Sunda Wiwitan) Hindu age to Islam. This study investigates Tri Tangtu di Bumi as a manifestation of Sundanese political philosophy. The method used in this study is a philosophical examination of Sundanese society's triumvirate notions. According to the research findings, Tri Tangtu di Bumi is identical to Trias Politica. This leadership style delegates political power and legitimacy to three individuals: Prabu, Rama, and Resi. Prabu symbolises the government and Rama represents people's voices. Meanwhile, Resi mostly serves as a mediator and judge. Tri Tangtu's spirit can still be found in the lives of the Baduy, Banten, Kampung Naga, Tasikmalaya, and Ciptagelar tribes of Sukabumi today.
The Mother of Islamic Sciences in Al-Ghazali's Perspective
Authors: Sabil Jabbar
Published: July 2024

Al-Ghazali stated that Kalam is the foundation (mabadi) of Islamic sciences. Does it mean the mother of Islamic sciences? It must be clarified because it is the basis for the development of Islamic sciences. Therefore, the researcher formulated questions about the meaning and the nature of philosophy as the mother of Islamic sciences from al-Ghazali's perspectivei. This study uses philosophy as the method, and its character is rational, critical, reflective, and argumentative. Al-Ghazali's books on philosophy and logic are the data sources analyzed through the discourse analysis method. It shows that al-Ghazali criticized philosophy—as a product of thought—by using philosophy—in the sense of process—as the tool. This study found the essence of philosophy is a process that plays a role in criticizing beliefs (naqd al-i'tiqad). Philosophers do physical reflection (tabi'iyyah), mathematical reflection (riyadah), and metaphysical reflection (ilahiyyah) that produce three-level abstraction. At the highest level, the result of Kalam is an abstraction toward a pure metaphysical realm. Philosophy is just an abstraction of natural and social reality, which is not purely metaphysical. Al-Ghazali did not reduce philosophy to Kalam but placed it as the mother of the rational sciences, besides kalam that has its realm, namely pure metaphysical reality. Finally, Kalam led to the discovery of the basic assumptions of sciences, theoretical frameworks, and paradigms that are the foundation of Islamic sciences. This research concludes that the meaning of Kalam as a foundation (mabadi) is the mother of Islamic sciences, because Kalam played a role in forming basic assumptions, paradigms, and theoretical frameworks of Islamic sciences.

Sensitivity is a measure that can reflect the balance of human affection. Therefore, this study aims to determine difference in the effects of listening to the Al-Quran and music on sensibility. A quasi-experimental method was used by forming 2 groups of participants, each consisting of 4 individuals. The first group listened to music, while the second listened to the Al-Quran and read the translation. Participants were placed in an isolation room to take part in the experimental process. Sensibility was then measured with Sensirec before the treatment was given. In the music treatment group, instrumental music with the title Pachelbel Major in D was played. Meanwhile, in the other group, the participants were asked to listen to the Al-Quran and read the translation of Surah al-Insān. After treatment, sensibility was measured again using Sensirec, and an attention check questionnaire was filled out. The results showed that the effects of decreasing arousal (deactivation) were stronger and more significant in the Al Quran group (η2=.833; p=.034), compared to the music group (η2=.183; p=.183). Low arousal positive affect showed feelings of calm, relaxation, and satisfaction. In addition, the situation could predict the well-being, mental health, and life satisfaction of the participants. Based on these results, the technique of listening to the Al-Quran could be developed as a more systematic part of Islamic psychotherapy.

The aim of this research is to determine the influence of marital commitment and adult attachment style on the quality of marriage, specifically the marital flourishing of married young adults. In addition, the research participants were 263 respondents that were obtained using the Convenience Sampling technique, with the criteria young adult, (20-40 years old), married for at least 2 months, and living on Java Island. The instruments that were used were the Relationship Flourishing Scale (RFS), Marital Commitment Inventory (MCI), and Attachment Style Questionnaire (ASQ). The results showed that marital commitment (p = .000) and a secure attachment style (p = .000) significantly predict marital flourishing. Meanwhile, the fearful (p=.09), preoccupied (p=.78), and dismissing (p=.81) attachment styles do not influence marital flourishing. This study concludes that young adults who develop secure attachment patterns and a strong sense of marital commitment are more likely to experience high-quality marriages.
