Authors:   Astana IT University, School of Creative Industry, Astana, Kazakhstan, NASSANBEKOVA Samalgul
Published: November 2024

This study examines how key institutions such as policies, incentives and stakeholder collaboration influence the implementation of circular economy initiatives in emerging tourism destinations. Main approach for this study is a case study method with documentary analysis and interviews with key stakeholders using Kazakhstan case. The documentary analysis showed the shortcomings of regulatory framework and adherence to a “planned circularity”. The analysis leads to practical recommendations for policymakers, including the development of comprehensive circular economy guidelines addressing tourism, financial incentives for businesses, infrastructure investment and increased collaboration among stakeholders. This study contributes to the literature by providing a detailed examination of how institutional factors shape circular economy practices in tourism in emerging destinations context. It offers insight into how global circular economy principles can be adapted to local conditions, thereby expanding understanding of the circular economy in different geographic and economic contexts.
An Inquiry of Elementary School Teachers' Experiences in Small Schools
Authors:   Korean Association for Qualitative Inquiry, Jo Jaeseong , Kim Youngjoo
Published: November 2024

This study explored the experiences of primary school teachers working at small schools and their meanings by using the method of narrative inquiry. The participants were Mr. Park Seung-jin and Mr. Cho Bu-jang, mid-career male teachers with 14 and 19 years of teaching experiences respectively, working at small schools. Mr Park taught at a small school on an island, while Mr. Cho worked in a rural village area in Jeollanam-do. Data were collected through unstructured interviews and analyzed using the three-dimensional space narrative structure proposed by Clandinin and Connelly (2004).
The results of the study revealed that Mr. Park Seung-jin's narrative encompassed both negative experiences such as conflicts with colleagues, a heavy workload, and challenges in adapting to a unique culture, and positive experiences related to an effective small school organizational culture. Meanwhile, Mr. Cho Bu-jang's narrative highlighted the difficulties of working as the head teacher of the administrative department (Gyo-moo-boo-jang) in a school where most teachers were less experienced, his aspiration for the ideal small school, and his growth process as a head teacher trying to realize the ideal.
From the narratives of the two teachers, it can be inferred that teachers in small schools generally experience the burden of a heavy workload, as well as unfamiliarity and discomfort with unique cultural characteristics. Decision-making processes often involve discussion and consensus among all the teachers. Additionally, teacher experiences in small schools are significantly influenced by administrators and colleagues, while each teacher’s professionalism and attitude have a substantial impact on the entire school. Based on these results and discussions, recommendations have been made to improve the experiences of current and future teachers in small schools.
A Study on the Narrative of the Life of a Child Care Facility Ended Protection: Focusing on Relationships with Others
Authors:   Korean Association for Qualitative Inquiry, Jung Eunwoo , Song Yeonjoo
Published: November 2024

This study attempted to explore their lives, focusing on the relationship of children who have terminated protection in child care facilities. To this end, it was analyzed through a narrative research method among qualitative research methods for 3 children who had terminated protection who lived in child care facilities for more than 10 years. As a result of the study, first, it was confirmed that it was difficult to establish a stable relationship with a life instructor instead of parents because of the lack of positive relationship experiences that made living in the facility more difficult. Second, the experience of being abandoned by parents and not being protected in the facility distorted the meaning of relationships with others. The distorted family concept that even violence must be understood and the stigma of coming from a facility have led to greater difficulties in relationships. For them, termination of protection means feeling alone and loneliness, and while relationships are no longer important to those who do not have intimate relationships other than family members and friends in the facility, relationships are found to be very insufficient. Recently, support for children who have terminated protection is increasing, but most of them are supportive of basic life, and there is not much support for them to acquire interpersonal skills to build relationships in society. Based on the results of this study, implications and suggestions for establishing positive relationships for children who have terminated protection were presented.

Authors:   Korean Association for Qualitative Inquiry, Lee Sanghyun , Boo Jaeyool , Lee Dongsung
Published: November 2024

The purpose of this paper is to illuminate the educational value and meaning of school-based financial education by describing an elementary school teacher’s school-based financial teaching experiences from an insider's perspective through autoethnography, a type of qualitative case study. The results of a paper is as follows. Firstly, as an elementary school teacher, I tried to establish an educational foundation for practicing financial education in school and classroom. Secondly, as an elementary financial education expert, I helped students make practical financial decisions by providing them with financial learning experiences connected to real life. Thirdly, as a researcher, I tried to build my own practical knowledge in order to grow into an expert in elementary financial education. Ultimately, these three teaching experiences helped me become an elementary school financial education expert in order to practice school-based financial education. This paper will contribute as an exemplary and practical data for the realization of elementary school-based financial education by presenting practical experiences of school-based financial education from an insider's perspective and reinterpreting them in relation to financial literacy.
Multidimensional determinants to adoption, use, and effectiveness of digital technologies for healthy ageing in migrant populations: A scoping review protocol
Authors: Stanciu Adrian , rodriguez alejandro dominguez , Westerhof Gerben
Published: November 2024

IntroductionDigital technology can be effective in providing personalized healthcare in contexts of ageing societies and increasing migration trends. However, the existent literature is scarce, unsystematic, and unfocused regarding the adoption, use, and effectiveness of such tools meant for healthy ageing in migrant populations. This knowledge gap delays the development of adequate interventions, policies, and technology that accommodate the healthcare needs and life experiences of older migrant people adequately. We aim to map the literature addressing the structural, psychological, and technical and ethical determinants to uncover the major challenges moving forward, highlight solutions, and derive an agenda for future research.Methods and analysisWe plan a scoping review of peer-reviewed articles published in English, German, Romanian and Spanish after 2010. We will perform the review across interdisciplinary databases, store and manage articles at Covidence.org, and enhance human screening with the machine learning tool ASReview. Our review will adhere to the Cochrance and PRISMA-ScR guidelines for conducting and reporting reviews. Ethics and disseminationNo primary data will be collected and therefore ethical approval is not required. The results of this scoping review will be published in a peer-review outlet and presented at conferences. A shiny web application will accompany the publication.
Real-Time Ransomware Detection Through Adaptive Behavior Fingerprinting for Improved Cybersecurity Resilience and Defense
Authors: Hurley Richard , Kruger Philip , Nascimento Henry , Keller Stephen
Published: November 2024

The growing frequency and sophistication of ransomware attacks have posed substantial challenges for traditional detection mechanisms, which often struggle to keep pace with the adaptive strategies employed by modern ransomware variants. Introducing a novel approach, Adaptive Behavior Fingerprinting (ABF), enables a more dynamic and resilient ransomware detection model through the continuous tracking and classification of behavioral patterns unique to ransomware. ABF’s architecture leverages behavior-driven analytics integrated directly at the system kernel level, allowing for uninterrupted monitoring of system activities such as file access operations, registry modifications, and network behaviors. Employing advanced clustering algorithms and adaptive decision trees, the ABF system adjusts its detection thresholds in response to real-time variations in ransomware behaviors, thus maintaining high detection accuracy even as ransomware evolves to evade traditional methods. Testing results demonstrate ABF’s effectiveness across multiple ransomware families, achieving consistent detection accuracy with low false positive rates and minimal processing overhead. The findings underscore ABF’s significant potential for practical applications, offering enhanced reliability and adaptability in ransomware defense, especially within high-risk environments where rapid and precise threat detection is critical.
Disability data futures: Achievable imaginaries for AI and disability data justice
Authors: Newman-Griffis Denis R , Swenor Bonnielin , Valdez Rupa , Mason Gillian
Published: November 2024

Data are the medium through which individuals’ identities and experiences are filtered in contemporary states and systems, and AI is increasingly the layer mediating between people, data, and decisions. The history of data and AI is often one of disability exclusion, oppression, and the reduction of disabled experience; left unchallenged, the current proliferation of AI and data systems thus risks further automating ableism behind the veneer of algorithmic neutrality. However, exclusionary histories do not preclude inclusive futures, and disability-led visions can chart new paths for collective action to achieve futures founded in disability justice. This chapter brings together four academics and disability advocates working at the nexus of disability, data, and AI, to describe achievable imaginaries for artificial intelligence and disability data justice. Reflecting diverse contexts, disciplinary perspectives, and personal experiences, we draw out the shape, actors, and goals of imagined future systems where data and AI support movement towards disability justice.
The influence of autonomy of a teleoperated robot on user's objective and subjective performance
Authors: Wozniak Mateusz M , Ari Ilkay , De Tommaso Davide , Wykowska Agnieszka
Published: November 2024

This article describes a study investigating the effects of decision-making autonomy of a robot, which is teleoperated in a simulated unstable or dangerous environment. It specifically focuses on robot’s autonomy to disregard the user’s command if the robot finds an alternative method of achieving the same goal as pursued by the user, but with significantly reduced risk of failure. Such autonomous control module might prove especially useful under circumstances where human operators cannot access or process all available information quickly enough to make the most optimal decision. We conducted an experiment in which subjects participated in a task of teleoperating either a robot that possesses such autonomous cognitive module, or not. We found that such module significantly reduced their sense of agency over the robot as well as the sense of doing the task together with the robot (sense of joint agency). Most interestingly, it reduced their subjective ratings of performance in the task, when in fact their actual performance was better with such an autonomous robot. A further analysis revealed that this counterintuitive finding was due to an effect of bias: in our study loss of control associated with operating an autonomous robot on average lowered the reported subjective performance by 11% points, with other factors staying equal. These results suggest that this type of assistive autonomy can be beneficial for performance, but might lead to unwanted effects that need to be overcome in order for such system to prove useful in practical applications.
"I don’t trust it, but I have to trust it": The Paradox of Trust vs Use of Online Technology Across The Mental Health Spectrum
Authors: Gentry Emma , Nichele Elena , Azim Tayyaba , Naiseh Mohammad , Dowthwaite Liz , Armouch Mohamad , Greenway Frances , Weal Mark , Hughes Ann-Marie , Palmer-Cooper Emma Claire
Published: November 2024

Background: Interest in eHealth has grown since the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. Use of internet-based technologies (IBTs) and artificial intelligence (AI) has the potential to transform the delivery of mental healthcare services, however, trust remains a pivotal factor in public acceptance and adoption of these systems. Aims: We investigated attitudes and behaviours towards eHealth services, with a focus on mental health and wellbeing provision, in the general population and individuals with experience of serious mental illness. Our investigation was underpinned by the extended technology acceptance model (TAM2), which included trust.Methods: After trialling a cognitive training exercise involving autonomous feedback, we prompted participants’ views on and trust in IBTs, autonomous systems (AS) and AI for health care. We conducted 22 semi-structured interviews in total, including 8 individuals who declared having experience of a serious mental illness. Results: We principally identified the privacy paradox extends to eHealth, whereby individuals engaged with IBTs despite distrusting them and/or having privacy concerns regarding them, and this was across all participants. Behaviours instead were driven by both convenience, ease of use, and lack of choice or alternatives. Conclusions: Whilst trust is a factor in uptake and engagement with eHealth, there are other factors involved. It is concerning that individuals will utilise eHealth systems despite mistrusting them or their developers. There are clear ethical implications for both healthcare providers prescribing eHealth, and developers of these systems, with considerations relevant across the mental health and wellbeing spectrum. To foster trust in IBTs, particularly those using AI, a balance is needed between human and eHealth provision. This may lead to greater trust and acceptability of systems, yielding better outcomes for patients.

Published: November 2024

Objective: The aim of this study was to assess the promotive and protective effects of parentaland peer racial-ethnic socialization (RES) on adolescents’ psychological well-being in the contextof racial-ethnic discrimination. We hypothesized that RES would buffer the pernicious effects ofdiscrimination on well-being by promoting more proactive coping (problem-solving, seekingsocial support) and less avoidant coping responses.Methods: Participants were a nationally representative sample of 371 ethnoracially minoritizedadolescents who were recruited through a research survey panel (51.75% assigned female sex atbirth; 46.90% Black, 24.80% Latine, 20.22% Asian/Asian American; Mage= 14.47 years, SDage=1.46, age-range= 10-19 years). Participants completed daily surveys of exposure to racial-ethnicdiscrimination, RES, coping, and psychological well-being across 30 days.Results: Results indicated parental cultural socialization promoted more positive next-day wellbeingvia increased problem-solving coping (B=0.01, SE=0.01, p<.05). The same pattern offindings emerged when examining cultural socialization messages from peers (B=0.02, SE=0.01,p<.01) and preparation for bias messages from parents (B=0.02, SE=0.01, p<.01). RESsignificantly moderated the effects of racial-ethnic discrimination on avoidance coping.Discussion: Findings suggest that RES from parents and peers may promote more positivepsychological well-being in adolescents by facilitating proactive coping processes on days whenthey experience racial-ethnic discrimination. Overall, the study points to the need for continuedefforts to develop, test, and disseminate evidence-based approaches to strengthening REScompetency, as doing so may be a critical avenue for cultivating resilience among ethnoraciallyminoritized youth.
An Evaluation of the Evidence on Mobile Health Applications for Mental Health Issues and Delinquency in Justice-Involved Adults and Youth: A Scoping Review
Authors: Aarts Elyan J.J. , Billen Eva , van Emmerik Arnold , Verschuere Bruno
Published: November 2024

Background. Forensic psychiatric patients often struggle to have their mental healthcare needs met, highlighting the need for approaches beyond traditional therapeutic models. Mobile health applications offer a promising solution, but research on their use in forensic psychiatric settings is limited. This scoping review explores the literature on mobile applications targeting mental health issues and delinquent behavior in forensic adults, youth, or at-risk populations. Additionally, we aim to critically evaluate the methodological quality of the existing research and evaluate the usability, acceptability, and effectiveness of the applications.Results. Nineteen records, covering fifteen unique applications, were included. Most applications targeted forensic adults, often recruited from ambulant settings. Substance abuse was the most common target. The methodological quality of the research was generally “acceptable”, with improvements needed in the eligibility screening, information about the content of the interventions, and handling of missing data. Usability, acceptability, and effectiveness studies were limited by small sample sizes, unvalidated measures, and low compliance. Despite these limitations, findings suggested improvements in the behaviors targeted by the applications, improved communication between clinicians and patients, and greater patient insight and confidence. However, apps that heavily rely on language, and persistent technical issues posed barriers for users. The available data on effectiveness indicates the potential for reducing recidivism in forensic youth and reducing aggression in adults in the short term.Conclusions. Mobile applications show potential for enhancing forensic mental healthcare, but further methodologically robust research is necessary to improve their usability and implementation in clinical practice.Keywords: Mobile Health Applications, Forensic Adults, Forensic Youth, Quality Assessment, Usability, Effectiveness
Points of contention in measure evaluation can arise from the use of divergent validity frameworks: A reply to Conway et al. (2024)
Authors: Wendt Leon Patrick
Published: November 2024

This reply to Conway et al. (2024) illustrates how points of contention in the evaluation of mindreading (or Theory of Mind) measures can arise from the use of divergent validity concepts. The construct validity model used in Wendt and colleagues’ (2024) empirical study contrasts with the perspective implicit in Conway and colleagues' commentary, which is more consistent with Lennon's content validity model. This is reflected in the authors' conception of the nature of what is to be measured (i.e., the measurand), the criterion for what makes a measure superior (i.e., validity), and the proposed methods for judging this (i.e., validation). The mismatch between the validity concepts adopted by the respective authors has three major implications: First, Conway and colleagues' critique does not fully address the specific goals, assumptions, and intricacies of construct validation methodology. Second, their approach to measuring mindreading should not be confused with, or considered as an alternative to, construct validation, but is valuable in its own right. Third, the two validity frameworks mentioned offer unique opportunities for different phases of the research process. While a content validity approach can be valuable for describing an empirical phenomenon that seems worthy of explanation (e.g., real-world mindreading), a construct validity approach helps identify the theoretical constructs that might help explain it (e.g., mindreading ability).
Towards a Mathematical Structure of Global Phenomenal Consciousness
Authors: Lee-Youngzie Zoe , Tsuchiya Naotsugu , Monti Martin M
Published: November 2024

In this paper, we discuss recent developments in structural approaches to consciousness. This research program aims to characterize qualitative properties of consciousness, or qualia, by modeling relative differences in phenomenal experience in a mathematical structure, often referred to as qualia structures or qualia spaces. A recent explosion of research projects investigates the qualia structures of specific aspects of experience, such as color, sound, or odor; however, the investigation of how these local aspects of experience integrate into the qualia of a distinctively unified moment of consciousness has been largely neglected. We discuss key theoretical and experimental considerations and propose a novel mathematical framework for moving towards a structural characterization of global phenomenal consciousness.
Pacifist or Peace Psychology? Overcoming Naïve Pacifism to Foster a True Science of Peace-Making
Authors: Adam-Troian Jais , Arciszewski Thomas , Belanger Jocelyn , Bonetto Eric
Published: November 2024

Recent geopolitical events have exposed critical gaps in the ability of peace and conflict psychology (PCP) to engage with conflicts beyond intractable or post-war contexts. This paper introduces the concept of "naïve pacifism" to describe underlying assumptions in PCP that hinder its ability to address complex modern conflicts effectively. Three pillars of naïve pacifism are identified: (1) the homeostatic view of peace as the natural state and violence as a dysfunction, (2) the belief in the reactive nature of violence, and (3) a perspectivist approach that overlooks objective features of conflicts. These assumptions lead PCP researchers to oversimplify, perpetuate pseudoscientific views of and promote ineffective interventions to solve violent conflicts. By challenging these pillars and proposing a more nuanced framework, this paper aims to advance PCP toward a true science of peace-making that is better equipped to address contemporary global conflicts.
Contested landscapes in Sardinia: heritage and ethnic identity under Italian green resource nationalism
Authors: Corona Sara
Published: November 2024

The interplay between cultural heritage and group identity is a multifaceted phenomenon that gains particular significance in the case of ethnic identities. Nation-building policies of cultural homogenisation haven’t always succeeded in incorporating ethnic minorities within the nation-state by replacing their sense of belonging with that of national identity.The Mediterranean island of Sardinia, a region of Italy, presents a compelling case study in this regard. The Sardinian population’s enduring sense of ethnic identity—distinctive and potentially in conflict with national identity—appears to be ignited around issues of heritage, in particular in response to a perceived threat coming from the outside.This research seeks to investigate the role of heritage in this conflict between Sardinian and Italian identity, taking as a case study the ongoing grassroots mobilisation against large-scale wind energy projects on the island. Here, I focus on the land and landscape as forms of heritage for the Sardinian people and investigate the development of their ethnic identity through this crucial experience of living-in-the-place. With this research, I aim to deepen our understanding of the persistence of ethnic minorities within nation-states, despite national assimilationist policies.

Published: November 2024

The purpose of this article is to analyze how the process of digitalization of justice can affect changes in the mechanisms of legal influence. In connection with this goal, we can identify the following research objectives: Consider the concept of digitalization of justice. To study the factors and features of modern society that affect the legal impact. To investigate the features of digitalization of legal impact. Consider digitalization as a tool for improving justice. Research methods. In this article, we used general scientific (comparison, analysis, deduction) and private scientific (formal legal, method of interpretation of legal norms, comparative legal) methods. The results of the study. One of the key mechanisms of digital legal impact is the introduction of electronic justice. This includes the use of electronic systems for filing and reviewing lawsuits, as well as conducting court sessions in an online format. Such innovations can significantly reduce the time for reviewing cases and make justice more accessible to citizens. Conclusion. The general directions for improving the legal regulation of procedural legal relations implemented in electronic format are: creation of a block of legal norms concerning the acceptance or refusal to accept a statement of claim filed in electronic form; regulation of the procedure for securing, attaching, authenticating, examining electronic evidence and evidence submitted in electronic form, as well as the procedure for examining physical and written evidence in a court session conducted in the format of a video conference call; settlement of the consequences of the absence of an audio protocol of the court session or inconsistency of the minutes of the court session with its audio version.

Objective: This study aimed to validate the PeRSonal Gestational Diabetes (GDM) model with two-step glucose tolerance diagnostic criteria.Material and Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted on participants having delivered with GDM diagnosis in a tertiary hospital; from October 1, 2020, until September 30, 2022. The main outcome was a composite of maternal and perinatal adverse pregnancy complications. Model validation evaluated the predictors and calculated risk by using a two-step glucose tolerance test in the PeRSonal model formula. Model performance was analyzed for discrimination, calibration, and overall performance. Results: This study analyzed 685 from the initial 764 participants with GDM, with 218 (31.8%) developing adverse pregnancy outcomes. The most frequent adverse outcomes were hypertensive disorders in pregnancy 132 (19.3%) and neonatal hypoglycemia 91 (13.3%). This validation achieved an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.70 (95% confidence interval (CI) 0.65 to 0.74), calibration-in-the-large of 0.17, a calibration slope of 1.34, and a Brier score of 0.20, respectively. The cut-off clinical risk probability of 27.5% can predict adverse outcomes with a sensitivity of 67.3%, specificity of 63.8%, a positive predictive value (PPV) of 46.7%, and a negative predictive value (NPV) of 80.5%. Conclusion: The PeRSonal model maintains its predictive effectiveness in two-step glucose tolerance diagnostic criteria.
Cholelithiasis in newborns — myth or reality?
Authors: Vanatka R
Published: November 2024

Introduction: In the past, cholelithiasis in newborns was considered extreme a rare finding, but with increasing use of ultrasound (USG) examination the abdomen is also found more and more often in them.
Objective: The objective of the presented work was to assess the frequency of occurrence at least as a guide cholecystolithiasis in newborns and to characterize its spontaneous development or capture it also the occurrence of complications from the biliary system in these children.
Materials and Methods: The author examined the cholecyst using USG over four months in 339 newborns (including the period of the COVID-19 pandemic), of which 273 children with adequate postpartum adaptation (“physiological” newborns) and 66 children with postnatal adaptation disorders who required more intensive medical care and in whom they therefore occurred to an increased extent risk factors for the development of cholelithiasis (“pathological” newborns).
Results: In 5 children from the first group (1.8 % of these children, of which 3 girls and 2 boys) and in 4 children from the second group (6.1 % of these children, of which 2 girls and 2 boys) was found ultrasound finding of echogenic material in the gallbladder. Among these children, 3 children went (1 from the first and 2 from the second group) o USG image of cholecystolithiasis, in 4 children (3 from the first and 1 from the second group) about the so-called USG image. “sludge-balls” and for 2 children (one from each group) o USG image “sludge”. Frequency of USG image of classic cholecystolithiasis it was thus 0.36 % in “physiological” and 3.0 % in “pathological” newborns. The obvious the predominance of the USG finding of echogenic material in the gallbladder in either gender not recorded by the author. It was found in all “physiological” newborns during subsequent USG checks with the original finding of echogenic material in the gallbladder confirmed spontaneous adjustment USG findings at the age of 1 month. In three of the original 4 “pathological” newborns with the original finding of echogenic material in the gallbladder, this USG persisted image even at the age of three months and at least one of them at the age of over one of the year. They were not observed clinically in any of the monitored newborns significant complications demonstrably related to the biliary system.
Conclusion: USG finding of echogenic material in the cholecyst (and also cholecystolithiasis as such) therefore, it can be considered a relatively frequent finding with a good outcome in the newborn age prognosis and the very rare occurrence of complications, while the participation of risky factors in its formation is significant. Despite the good prognosis, USG follow-up should be recommended of these children in order to detect possible complications of cholelithiasis at an early stage.

Resultados: Durante ese periodo de tiempo, aporta una gran cantidad de datos en sus emisiones que sirven para esclarecer el Caso Grimau y relacionarlo con (LMD). Discusión: Se relacionan y cuestionan  la implantación jurídica de estos artículos con las emisiones de radio de “La Pirenaica”. Conclusiones: El Caso Grimau es un ejemplo excepcional para la Ley de Memoria Democrática, que pone de manifiesto todas las irregularidades y aspectos sin aclarar sobre la detención y fusilamiento de Julián Grimau, que se verá, en un futuro, complementada con la aplicación de una nueva ley de secretos oficiales.
