XYZ is one of the companies that manufacture seat components for four-wheel motor vehicles in Indonesia. The aim of this research is to control and reduce the defect rate in the production of Re-Clean seats. This research uses the Quality Control Circle (QCC) method. With the Quality Control Circle (QCC), we can more easily identify, analyze and solve various work-related problems and apply them in the company's operational activities. The results of this study show that the lack of welding quality is due to the high cycle time of the welding process due to machine factors, method factors and human factors. Of the factors that cause high cycle time problems in the welding process, there is a dominant factor. By looking at the process time of each factor, this makes it easier to overcome problems that are a priority to address. In NG, this happens because the amperage is too high and also the distance between the electrode and the base metal is too far. Over Spatter welding error, meaning spatter is welding spatter, actually if the spatter can be cleaned it is not defective. However, if the amount is excessive and cannot be cleared, it is categorized as a visual impairment. The way to prevent it is to reduce the current as recommended.

Kathryn Lasky, “Women’s Voice Counts”
Authors: Tia Daniel , Dovonou Fatonde Olivier
Published: September 2024

The American women did not await the 21st century to express their disapproval of matters of general interest. At every stage of human history, they always assert their presence as agents of social development and promoters of liberties; they prove their ability to serve humanity. In all parts of the world, despite the deliberate ideological restrictions inflicted upon them, they show integrity, decency, and honesty; their pragmatism, literacy, actions, and ideas serve as bow. Those qualities enable them to free themselves from all forms of ostracism and subjugation. Along the march of history, when defending their common cause, some of them sometimes lose their lives, others are incarcerated, but the survivors remain committed and hopeful. They continually fight to climb the social ladder. In socio-professional and political sectors where men are hostile, they demonstrate absolute resilience. A retrospective glance at the US history helps to revivify the American women’s involvement. Labeled as vulnerable and passive beings, they embark on a timeless struggle whose purpose is to restore their tarnished image and dignity. Better still, their awareness enables them to eradicate the prejudices, social inequalities, and barriers, which disadvantage and devalue them. Like other Western countries, the United States has a long tradition of marginalizing women. Its excluding policy is narrowly connected with patriarchal tradition; a practice, which emerges not only in the family sphere, but also on the political stage, where women are deprived of their suffrage. In such circumstances, they suffer from male domination with impunity. That burning social injustice is pictured by writers, such as Kathryn Lasky whose literary works pay tribute to the American suffragists for their boldness and great sense of duty in the construction of democracy in America. As a field par excellence for the symbolization of social facts, literature appears as a location where the American women’s bravery and ingenuity are realistically expressed. Therefore, the study of Laskian female characters’ trajectories through the textual prism is advantageous. For that purpose, the use of Derridean deconstruction as a methodological tool will be helpful. This will scrutinize the political scope of Laskian female characters’ struggle for suffrage through two axes: “A masculinized political system” and “women’s awareness and US democracy.”
Emotions Effects and Interpretation of Language: Semantic Observation
Authors: Abdul-Kadhim Ina’am A.
Published: September 2024

This paper examines the influence of emotions on language comprehension from a semantic standpoint. It proposes that language has an impact on the regulation and expression of emotions, while emotions also affect language. Specifically, it suggests that emotions primarily have negative effects on the interpretation and importance of language in various contexts among diverse individuals. The paper adopts Ko¨vecses' (2004) approach for linguistic lexical analysis of emotional words and categories in language. It applies this methodology to analyze two songs by male and female singers in the modern era. According to the affect-as-information theory and appraisal theory, it is determined that emotions can change the meaning of any language produced by human cognition. Language can express emotions through a range of words, symbols, and representations that relate to emotional context, gender distinctions, and the natural environment.

Authors: Kara İlkem , Mutlu Ayşe İlayda
Published: September 2024

Aim: Cleft lip and palate is one of the most common congenital craniofacial conditions with follow-up of many different professionals usually beginning at birth and continuing throughout life. Internet resources can influence people's decisions on health-related issues. The purpose of this study was to examine the information quality, verifiability, standard compliance, and readability of websites that offer information on cleft lip and palate.
Method: The first 100 websites accessed through "http://www.google.com.tr/" using the keyword "cleft lip and palate (“dudak damak yarıkları” in Turkish)" were evaluated and 64 websites were included in the analysis. The information quality, conformity to standards, and verifiability of the websites were scored according to HONcode criteria (0=lowest; 16=highest); Ateşman (0–29=very difficult; 90–100=very easy) and Çetinkaya (0–34=disabled level; 51+=independent level) readability indices were applied.
Results: The mean HONcode score of the websites was 4.79±2.07 (min=0; max=9). The average word length was 2.77±0.12 (min=2.44; max=3.13) and the average sentence length was 11.46±2.44 (min=5.4; max=19.1). The mean of Ateşman readability analysis was 57.57±8.92 (min=32.9; max=77.4) and the mean of Çetinkaya readability analysis was 57.93±3.27 (min=49.72; max=64.64).
Conclusion: The results indicate that the web pages have limited standards compliance, verifiability, and information quality. The Ateşman index places readability at a medium difficulty level, while the Çetinkaya index places it at an independent level. It is emphasized that content producers should pay attention to quality standards while developing the reading material on websites related to cleft lip and palate and pay attention to readability features so that visitors can easily access information.
Determination of Skin Cancer and Sun Knowledge Status of Nursing Students
Authors: Kıskaç Neşe
Published: September 2024

Aim: The purpose of this study was to assess nursing students' awareness of sun knowledge and skin cancer.
Method: The research is cross-sectional and descriptive. Through the use of an online questionnaire, 272 nursing students provided the study's data. Data were gathered using the Skin Cancer and Sun Knowledge Scale and a form asking participants to describe their personal information. The statistical application IBM SPSS 26.0 was utilized to analyze the data.
Results: The Skin Cancer and Sun Knowledge Scale total score (14.51±3.24) was determined to be higher than the middle level. The total score of the scale did not significantly correlate with the students' age, grade level, prior knowledge of skin cancer, or the existence of a family history of the disease (p>0.05). However, there was a significant correlation (p<0.05) between gender and the scale's total score. The students' ages and the scale's overall score did not significantly correlate (p>0.05).
Conclusion: According to the study's findings, most respondents have knowledge that is above the intermediate level. Even though the study's conclusions paint a generally positive picture, they also demonstrate the need for further development. At this point, more effective community awareness of skin cancer may result from evaluating and updating the methods and content of nursing education programs. Future work could focus on the development of more specific strategies to increase knowledge in this area.

Authors: Bilsel Beyza Aslı , Metin Barış
Published: September 2024

Aim: The study examined the effects of tactile and massage techniques on the occupational therapist’s perspective on the role perception and stress levels of parents and the changes in children’s sensory processing.
Method: A total of 30 children, (18 females and 12 males), aged 3-6, with normal development, and their parents were included in the study. A diverse community sample of mothers (M=33.6±5.521 years) and their preschool-aged children (M=4.5±1.2 years) participated in the study. The following instruments were employed: Parental Stress Index, Self-Perception Scale for Parenting Role, and Sensory Profile Test. Parents were instructed in a number of touch and massage techniques devised by the Occupational Therapist within the framework of Sensory Integration Theory. Following the 15-minute and 20-session implementation period, the parents were then tested. After the sessions were completed, the tests were repeated.
Results: The findings indicated that at the end of the study, there was a decrease in parental stress levels, and an increase in parental role perception and children's sensory processing skills (p <0.05). The study demonstrated that touch and massage techniques can positively impact parent-child interaction.
Conclusion: Studies examining the potential enduring effects of positive parental touch on stress levels and parental role perception rarely extend beyond infancy. It is believed that research with a larger sample size on this topic would contribute significantly to the existing literature.

Published: September 2024

Aim: This study aims to compare the diagnostic accuracy and complication rates of 20G and 22G needles in transthoracic fine needle aspiration biopsy (TFNAB).
Method: This retrospective study reviewed lung biopsy results from procedures performed between January 2018 and March 2020. Patients included had non-diagnostic bronchoscopic biopsies or were deemed inappropriate for bronchoscopic biopsy. A total of 127 patients underwent Computed tomography (CT) guided TFNAB using either 20G or 22G needles. Data on lesion size, localization, diagnostic adequacy, and complications were collected and analyzed.
Results: The study cohort included 127 patients with a mean age of 63.21 years. Of these, 72 underwent biopsies with a 22G needle and 55 with a 20G needle. The overall diagnostic accuracy was 96.8%, with no significant differences between the 20G and 22G needle groups (p=0.206). Complications occurred in 59 patients (46.5%), with pneumothorax being the most common, and two cases required chest tube placement. The rate of pulmonary hemorrhage was 18.9%. There were no significant differences in complication rates between the needle sizes (p=0.985).
Conclusion: CT-guided TFNAB using both 20G and 22G needles is safe and effective, with high diagnostic accuracy and low complication rates. The choice of needle size does not significantly impact diagnostic outcomes or complication rates, allowing clinicians flexibility based on patient-specific factors and procedural requirements.
Understanding sustainability transformation at corporations: terms and categorization
Authors: Smite Diana , Sceulovs Deniss
Published: September 2024

Sustainable business management transformation is associated with one of the biggest potentials for economic benefit and an increasing number of companies are joining the transitioning pathway. There is a research gap in both the definitions of sustainability transformation and the framework on how businesses manage skills, processes, and organizational activities to facilitate it. The focus of this research is to understand the scope of sustainability transformation in corporations, namely, how the concept of sustainability transformation has been defined and researched in the context of corporations due to their scale, impact, and exposure. Corporations are expected to lead toward true ecosystem value creation and as such, are of special interest and weight within the private sector. The research concludes that interpretations of sustainability transformation range from incremental to systemic changes, underlining the complexity of evaluating and implementing sustainability in a corporate environment.

Authors: Franczak Iwona , Bakota Daniel
Published: September 2024

This study examines the existence of earnings management by travel agencies operating in Poland at the time of global disease threats over the last decade. To measure earnings management the estimation of total discretionary accruals was used constituting some changes in the working capital. Among the available research methods, hypothesis verification procedures based on panel models have been selected. It is found, that in the times of economic prosperity, the phenomenon of earnings management does not occur as it is not necessary. In tough years, when the actual financial result becomes unsatisfactory, shaping the result is used as a tool for its correction. Interpretation of the results requires caution due to their sensitivity to the adopted research methodology. They should be treated as an incentive to a thorough analysis of the content of financial statements and to research into the earnings management of tourism businesses.
Determining the criticality profile of manufacturing SMEs under the influence of internal and external factors on performance
Authors: Grosu Veronica , Petrescu Corina , Ciubotariu Marius-Sorin
Published: September 2024

Recent economic instability has heightened the need for companies to be aware of the threats in their internal and external environments and the impact these have on their performance capacity. Thus, this paper aims to identify the most impactful factors on the performance of small and medium-sized enterprises engaged in manufacturing activities in Romania, by conducting empirical questionnaire-based research, resulting in a database with primary data to be processed. A 5-point Likert scale was used to determine the frequency of occurrence and intensity of impact of the selected factors, the level of criticality of these factors being calculated using the mean value method. The results highlight the prevalence of external factors among the top critical factors, those with the most significant impact on the performance being the high cost of raw materials, lack of professionals and specialists, fluctuations in market demand, fluctuations in government policies and legislative regulations. The usefulness of the results obtained lies in the fact that they create a risk or criticality profile of the analyzed production sector, which makes it possible to address its critical points with the most optimal solutions in the given context, on the part of both management and government, thus ensuring increased performance.

We present UV–optical–near-infrared observations and modeling of supernova (SN) 2024ggi, a type II supernova (SN II) located in NGC 3621 at 7.2 Mpc. Early-time (“flash”) spectroscopy of SN 2024ggi within +0.8 days of discovery shows emission lines of H i, He i, C iii, and N iii with a narrow core and broad, symmetric wings (i.e., “IIn-like”) arising from the photoionized, optically thick, unshocked circumstellar material (CSM) that surrounded the progenitor star at shock breakout (SBO). By the next spectral epoch at +1.5 days, SN 2024ggi showed a rise in ionization as emission lines of He ii, C iv, N iv/v, and O v became visible. This phenomenon is temporally consistent with a blueward shift in the UV–optical colors, both likely the result of SBO in an extended, dense CSM. The IIn-like features in SN 2024ggi persist on a timescale of t
IIn = 3.8 ± 1.6 days, at which time a reduction in CSM density allows the detection of Doppler-broadened features from the fastest SN material. SN 2024ggi has peak UV–optical absolute magnitudes of M
w2 = −18.7 mag and M
g = −18.1 mag, respectively, that are consistent with the known population of CSM-interacting SNe II. Comparison of SN 2024ggi with a grid of radiation hydrodynamics and non–local thermodynamic equilibrium radiative-transfer simulations suggests a progenitor mass-loss rate of
