Authors: Bunyamin Bunyamin , Novita Riska , Mujahidin Mujahidin
Published: February 2024

The practice of early-age marriage has been observed to have a multitude of adverse effects on various domains, including mental health, physical health, education, productivity, and most significantly, the quality of human resources in the future. The practice of early-age marriage has been observed in various locations, including the village of Arajang in the Wajo region. The legality of early-age marriage is addressed in National Law No.16 of 2019, which stipulates that marriage is only permissible when both people involved have attained the age of 19. However, it is important to note that the actual findings diverge significantly. This study employed a qualitative approach, utilizing open interviews as the primary technique of data collection. Additionally, deductive reasoning was employed in the analysis of the gathered data. This research has identified several factors that influence early-age marriage, including cultural and traditional practices, levels of knowledge and education, instances of adultery, and economic and poverty-related concerns. Another outcome of this study indicates that the residents of Arajang do not exhibit concerns regarding early-age marriage. Consequently, there is a pressing necessity to undertake comprehensive educational initiatives to raise awareness about the consequences of child marriage.

What is discourse? Returning to the “hidden” Saussure
Authors: Золян С.Т.
Published: February 2024

В статье рассматривается понятие дискурса в его соотношении с классической триадой Фердинанда де Соссюра «языковая деятельность — язык — речь» (langage — langue — parole). Это понятие появляется в 1943 году у Эрика Бюиссанса в полемике с Ф. де Соссюром. Им, а впоследствии и другими лингвистами, было показано, что триада Соссюра недостаточна, поскольку нет непосредственного перехода от языка-как-системы (langue) к языку-как-де-ятельности (langage) и от языка-как-системы (langue) к речи. Понятие дискурса было призвано служить связующей сферой между ними. Однако посмертная публикация черновых записей Соссюра показывает, что, во-первых, сам Соссюр осознавал неполноту подобной триады. Знакомая нам в ее хрестоматийной интерпретации триада langage — langue — parole в рукописях Соссюра предстает скорее как процесс поисков, а не окончательное решение. Во-вторых, редакторы последовательно элиминировали сам термин «дискурс». Этот термин использовался Соссюром в различных значениях, их смысловое ядро можно свести к такому: «элементы языка в их употреблении». Некоторые заметки Соссюра публикаторам были неизвестны, в том числе и так называемая «оранжерейная» рукопись. В этой рукописи есть цельная заметка о том, что дискурс — это дополнительный по отношению к языку как системе порядок организации смысловых единиц языка. Такое понимание дискурса Соссюром близко к представлениям современных исследователей.

We address the conception of discourse in its connection with Ferdinand de Saussure’s classical triad langage — langue — parole. This concept appeared in 1943 in Eric Buissance’s polemics with F. de Saussure. He, and later tother linguists, have demonstrated that Saussure’s triad is insufficient, since there is no direct transition from language-as-system (langue) to language-as-activity (langage) and from language-as-system (langue) to speech. The concept of discourse was introduced as a connecting domain between them. However, the posthumous publication of Saussure’s drafts shows that, firstly, Saussure was aware of the incompleteness of such a triad. In his manuscripts, the triad langage-langue-parole, instead of its well-known in its textbook interpretation, appears more as a process of search than an ultimate solution. Secondly, the editors of the Course consistently eliminated the term discourse. This term was used by Saussure in various meanings, their semantic core can be reduced to the following: the elements of language in their use. Some of Saussure’s notes were unfamiliar to the publishers, including the so-called Orangery Manuscript. In this manuscript there is a complete note that discourse is an additional order of organizing semantic units of language in relation to language as a system. Saussure’s understanding of discourse is close to the conceptions of modern researchers.

Published: February 2024

This study looks into the dynamic link that exists between service quality and customer feedback in the developing Nigerian state of Akwa Ibom. The study attempts to clarify the critical role that customer feedback plays in establishing service standards and is based on the growing importance of service quality in today's global hospitality market. By means of an exhaustive analysis of several aspects of customer feedback, including online reviews, referral rates, repeat customer behaviour, and complaint frequency, the research aims to identify their respective influences on the perceived quality of service. This study's theoretical foundations include Oliver's Expectation-Confirmation Theory and the SERVQUAL model. In the end, these frameworks impact customers' views of service quality by providing a theoretical basis to understand the intricate relationship between their experiences, expectations, and satisfaction levels. The present inquiry is grounded in empirical research from a variety of hospitality environments, which demonstrates the significance of customer feedback and its complex influence on service quality. One hundred customers who have used hospitality services in Akwa Ibom State are the subjects of this study, which employs a survey research design. Analyzing the data through regression analysis yields some interesting results. Greater complaint frequency and some elements of online evaluations show negative correlations; however higher recommendation rates are positively correlated with perceived service quality. It is noteworthy that the perception of service quality is not much affected by the behaviour of repeat customers. The results of this study have important ramifications for the hospitality industry in Akwa Ibom. These include the necessity of efficient complaint handling procedures, proactive tactics to encourage positive word-of-mouth, and a sensible use of online reviews. In order to connect service delivery with changing consumer demands and promote sustainable growth and development within the local hospitality industry, it proposes a paradigm change towards continuous improvement, tailored experiences, and proactive response tactics.

Introduction: The implant contains levonogestrel, the advantage of this method lasts up to five years, once the contraceptive is taken the fertility will return soon. The side effect of using this contraceptive implant is weight gain because the hormones contained can stimulate the appetite control center in the hypothalamus. This study aims to find out the factors associated with the use of implanted contraception in women of childbearing age (WUS)Method: This research is a cross-sectional quantitative study with the Simple Random Sampling technique. The results of the study were analyzed using a statistical test, namely Chi-Square to see the relationship with the use of implanted contraceptive devices in women of childbearing age (WUS)Results: The results showed that there was a relationship between the use of implanted contraceptives and attitude (p-value = 0.002), access to health services (p-value = 0.033), the role of health workers (p-value = 0.033), and there was no relationship between contraceptive use implant with Age (p=0.331), Education (p-value=0.444), Knowledge (p-value=0.148)Conclusion: There is a relationship between attitude, access to health services, the role of health workers, husband's support and there is no relationship between age, education, knowledgeKeywords: Factors, implant contraception, women of childbearing age

Di Tanah Air, game dengan genre Role Playing Game (RPG) yang memasukkan nuansa cerita rakyat masih sangat langka. Fenomena ini tidak hanya terjadi dalam dunia game, tetapi juga mencerminkan pergeseran tren teknologi ke arah perangkat mobile, termasuk di ranah pendidikan Indonesia. Hingga kini, pengetahuan siswa tentang cerita rakyat sebagian besar didapat dari buku cerita, internet, dan umumnya hanya lewat narasi yang diceritakan oleh orang tua mereka. Sementara itu, di lingkungan sekolah, pengenalan terhadap cerita rakyat umumnya masih bergantung pada media pembelajaran konvensional, seperti teks bacaan atau buku. Dalam upaya memperkenalkan cerita rakyat Keong Mas kepada kalangan anak - anak dan meningkatkan ketertarikan anak-anak terhadap cerita rakyat, diperlukan metode yang menarik dan inovatif untuk mewujudkannya, salah satunya dengan membuat game yang mudah dimainkan melalui smartphone. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah metode RAD (Rapid Application Development) melalui UML (Unified Modeling Language). Pengujian game dilakukan dengan metode UAT (User Acceptance Testing) melalui kuesioner dan memperoleh hasil rata-rata persentase sebesar 84%. Hasil penelitian ini yaitu, game RPG Keong Mas berbasis Android yang dibuat menggunakan RPG Maker MV, berhasil mengenalkan cerita rakyat kepada kalangan anak-anak dan meningkatkan ketertarikan anak-anak terhadap cerita rakyat di Indonesia.

The Galileo spacecraft had distant encounters with Earth in 1990 and 1992. Limited Solid State Imager (SSI) data acquired during these encounters has been previously presented, but the majority of the data from these Earth flybys have not been presented in the literature. Observations of Earth taken from afar are both rare and directly relevant to the development of any future exo-Earth direct imaging mission. Here we present a pipeline that vets, calibrates, and measures the disk-integrated brightness of the Earth, in multiple filters, from the complete SSI data sets from both the 1990 and 1992 Galileo flybys. The result is over 1500 usable photometric measurements for Earth as an analog for an exoplanet. The 1990 data set includes full rotational lightcurves in six bandpasses spanning the optical range. The 1992 data set is more limited, with lightcurves only spanning 14 hr. Time-averaged photometry for both encounters is presented while variability and color are discussed relative to findings from NASA’s EPOXI mission (which also provided photometric lighturves for Earth). The new Galileo/SSI data are used to further validate the Virtual Planetary Laboratory 3D spectral Earth model, which often serves as a stand-in for true disk-integrated observations of our planet. The revived Galileo/SSI data for Earth is a testament to the ability of NASA’s Planetary Data System to maintain data over decades-long timescales. The disk-integrated products derived from these data add to a very short list of calibrated and published whole-disk observations of the Pale Blue Dot.

To observe meteorite ablation, simulation experiments were conducted on the L5 ordinary chondrite and IAB-MG iron meteorites in an arc-heated facility and three flight conditions were reproduced. To mimic the high heating rates and the significant shear stress that meteorites experience during Earth entry, the samples were machined into 9° spherical cones with a 20 mm nose radius. High-quality video, the surface temperature, a time-resolved spectrum, and infrared video were recorded. The atom species were determined via spectroscopy to analyze the ablation products. Due to the electrode erosion and dissociation of air, the atomic lines of copper, nitrogen, and oxygen were detected in all the tests. Although the copper atom is a pollutant to the flow field, the five copper lines were used to determine the flow-field temperature. The ablation rates and effective heat of ablation of both the samples were measured under different conditions. The results indicate that shear stress is the dominant factor influencing meteorite ablation. Furthermore, the diversity between stony and iron meteorites suggests that the mass loss of stony meteorites depends on the fragmentation of the main body and that of iron meteorites depends on the shearing loss of the molten layer. Then, the fusion crusts were analyzed, the microstructures of the samples were obtained, the crust thicknesses were measured, and the elemental distribution of the stony meteorites was determined via energy dispersion spectroscopy. The study results explain the differences in the ablation and recrystallization process between stony and iron meteorites.
The Asteroseismological Richness of RCB and dLHdC Stars

RCB stars are L ≈ 104
L
⊙ solar-mass objects that can exhibit large periods of extinction from dust ejection episodes. Many exhibit semi-regular pulsations in the range of 30–50 days with semi-amplitudes of 0.05–0.3 mag. Space-based photometry has discovered that solar-like oscillations are ubiquitous in hydrogen-dominated stars that have substantial outer convective envelopes, so we explore the hypothesis that the pulsations in RCB stars and the closely related dustless hydrogen-deficient carbon (dLHdC) stars, which have large convective outer envelopes of nearly pure helium, have a similar origin. Through stellar modeling and pulsation calculations, we find that the observed periods and amplitudes of these pulsations follows the well-measured phenomenology of their H-rich brethren. In particular, we show that the observed modes are likely of angular orders l = 0, 1, and 2 and predominantly of an acoustic nature (i.e., p-modes with low radial order). The modes with largest amplitude are near the acoustic cutoff frequency appropriately rescaled to the helium-dominated envelope, and the observed amplitudes are consistent with that seen in high-luminosity (L > 103
L
⊙) H-rich giants. We also find that for T
eff ≳ 5400 K, an hydrogen-deficient carbon stellar model exhibits a radiative layer between two outer convective zones, creating a g-mode cavity that supports much longer period (≈100 days) oscillations. Our initial work was focused primarily on the adiabatic modes, but we expect that subsequent space-based observations of these targets (e.g., with TESS or Plato) are likely to lead to a larger set of detected frequencies that would allow for a deeper study of the interiors of these rare stars.
