Authors: Anuyahong Bundit , Rattanapong Chalong , Patcha Inteera
Published: May 2023

This This research aims to examine the impact of AI on personalized learning and adaptive assessment in higher education and investigate the ethical and social implications of using AI in these contexts. A mixed-methods approach was used, involving surveys, interviews, focus groups, institutional records, and system logs to collect both quantitative and qualitative data. The population included higher education institutions that use AI in personalized learning and adaptive assessment systems, as well as students and educators who use these systems. The results of the study showed that AI-based systems had a positive impact on student engagement and motivation, as well as providing personalized learning experiences. However, the analysis also revealed some limitations and potential concerns, such as technical issues and the potential for bias in the AI algorithms used in these systems. Ethical and social implications were analyzed using ethical frameworks such as the Belmont Report and principles of distributive justice. To ensure ethical and socially responsible use of AI in personalized learning and adaptive assessment, clear guidelines and standards for the development and implementation of these systems need to be established. This includes promoting transparency and accountability in the use of student data, ensuring that algorithms are developed and validated in a fair and unbiased manner, and involving diverse stakeholders in the design and implementation of these systems to promote equity and fairness. Informed consent should also be obtained from students and other stakeholders, and measures should be taken to ensure that student data is kept confidential and secure. Ongoing monitoring and evaluation should be conducted to assess the impact of AI-based systems on student outcomes and to identify and address any unintended consequences or biases.

Abstract. Emissions of ozone (O3) precursors in the United States have decreased in recent decades, and near-surface O3 concentrations
showed a significant decrease in summer but an increase in winter. In this study, an O3 source tagging technique is utilized in a
chemistry–climate model to investigate the source contributions to O3 mixing ratios in the US from various emitting sectors and regions of nitrogen oxides (NOx) and reactive carbon species during 1995–2019. We show that domestic emission reductions from energy and surface transportation are primarily responsible for the decrease in summertime O3 during 1995–2019. However, in winter, the emission control also weakens the NOx titration process, resulting in considerable increases in O3 levels from natural sources. Additionally, increases in aviation and shipping emissions and transpacific transport of O3 from Asia largely contribute to the winter O3 increase. We also found that changes in large-scale circulation favoring O3 transport from the upper atmosphere and foreign transport from Asia also explain 15 % of the increase in the US near-surface O3 levels in winter.

Abstract. Current understanding of land-atmosphere exchange fluxes is limited by the fact that available observational techniques mainly quantify net fluxes, which are the sum of generally larger, bi-directional fluxes that partially cancel out. As a consequence, validation of gas exchange fluxes applied in models is challenging due to the lack of ecosystem-scale exchange flux measurements partitioned into soil, plant, and atmospheric components. One promising experimental method to partition measured turbulent fluxes uses the exchange-process-dependent isotopic fractionation of molecules like CO2 and H2O. When applying this method at a field scale, an isotope flux (δ-flux) needs to be measured. Here, we present and discuss observations made during the LIAISE 2021 field campaign using an Eddy Covariance (EC) system coupled to two laser spectrometers for high frequency measurement of the isotopic composition of H2O and CO2. This campaign took place in the summer of 2021 in the irrigated Ebro River basin near Mollerussa, Spain, embedded in a semi-arid region. We present a systematic procedure to scrutinise and analyse the measured values of central δ-flux variable. Our experimental data indicated a larger relative signal loss in the δ-fluxes of H2O compared to the net ecosystem flux of H2O, while this was not true for CO2. Furthermore, we find that mole fractions and isotope ratios measured with the same instrument can be offset in time by more than a minute for the H2O isotopologues. We discuss how such artifacts can be detected and how they impact flux partitioning. We argue that these effects are likely due to condensation of water on a cellulose filter in our inlet system. Furthermore, we show that these artifacts can be resolved using physically sound corrections for inlet delays and high frequency loss. After such corrections and verification’s are made, isotopic ecosystem scale flux partitioning can be used reliably to validate conceptual land-atmosphere exchange models.
Comparative Study of Strongly and Weakly Coupled Soil Moisture Data Assimilation with a Global Coupled Land-Atmosphere Model
Authors: Kurosawa Kenta , Kotsuki Shunji , Miyoshi Takemasa
Published: May 2023

Abstract. This study explores coupled land-atmosphere data assimilation (DA) for improving weather and hydrological forecasts by assimilating soil moisture (SM) data. To assimilate land data with a coupled land-atmosphere model, weakly-coupled DA has been a common approach, in which land (atmospheric) data are not used to analyze atmospheric (land) model variables. This study integrates a land DA component into a global atmospheric DA system of the Nonhydrostatic ICosahedral Atmospheric Model (NICAM) and the Local Ensemble Transform Kalman Filter (LETKF), so that we can perform strongly-coupled land-atmosphere DA experiments. We perform various types of coupled DA experiments by assimilating atmospheric observations and SM data simultaneously. The results show that analyzing atmospheric variables by assimilating SM data improves SM analysis and forecasts and mitigates a warm temperature bias in the lower troposphere where a dry SM bias exists. However, analyzing SM by assimilating atmospheric observations has detrimental impacts on SM analysis and forecasts.
Clustering of settling microswimmers in turbulence
Authors: Qiu Jingran , Cui Zhiwen , Climent Eric , Zhao Lihao
Published: May 2023

Abstract. Clustering of plankton plays a vital role in several biological activities including feeding, predation and mating. Gyrotaxis is one of the mechanisms that induces clustering. A recent study reported a fluid inertial torque acting on a spherical micro-swimmer, which is analogous to a gyrotactic torque. In this study, we model plankton cells as micro-swimmers that are subject to gravitational sedimentation as well as a fluid inertial torque. We use direct numerical simulations to obtain the trajectories of swimmers in homogeneous isotropic turbulence, and investigate their clustering by Voronoï analysis. Our findings indicate that fluid inertial torque leads to notable clustering, with its intensity depending on the swimming and settling speeds of swimmers. By Voronoï analysis, we demonstrate that swimmers preferentially sample downwelling regions where clustering is more prevalent.
Evaluating the transport of surface seawater from 1956 to 2021 using 137Cs deposited in the global ocean as a chemical tracer
Authors: Inomata Yayoi , Aoyama Michio
Published: May 2023

Abstract. We analyzed the spatiotemporal variations in the 137Cs activity concentrations in global ocean surface seawater from 1956 to 2021 using the HAMGlobal2021 (Historical Artificial radioactivity database in Marine environment, Global integrated version 2021) and other published data. The global ocean was divided into 37 boxes. When observing the 0.5-year median value of 137Cs in each box in the Pacific Ocean, we noticed that the values gradually increased or had almost constant levels in the 1950s and 1960s, and then decreased exponentially in 1970–2010, immediately before the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant Station (F1NPS) accident. In the northern North Atlantic Ocean and its marginal sea, the 0.5-year median values of 137Cs showed large variations in the directly discharged 137Cs from the reprocessing plants. The 137Cs inventory in the surface mixed layer in 1970, when 137Cs was released into the surface seawater, was estimated to be 184±26 PBq. In 1975 and 1980, the 137Cs inventory increased to 201±27 and 214±11 PBq, respectively, due to direct discharge from the
Sellafield and La Hague nuclear fuel reprocessing plants. In 2011, the
137Cs inventory in the global ocean mixed layer increased to
50.7±7.3 PBq compared to that before the F1NPS accident, in which the
contribution from the accident was estimated to be approximately 15.5±3.9 PBq. Mass balance analysis indicates that 137Cs deposited
by the global fallout in the western North Pacific Ocean moved to the
eastern North Pacific Ocean. Subsequently, 137Cs was transported
southwards, followed by westward transport in the subtropical and
equatorial Pacific Ocean, and then inflowed into the Indian Ocean via the
Indonesian Archipelago. The longer apparent half-residence times in the
Indonesian Archipelago (36.7 years from 1973 to 1997) and central Atlantic
Ocean (38.0 years from 1992 to 2016) also support the interpretation of the
global-scale transport of 137Cs from the western North Pacific Ocean to the Indian (20–30 years) and Atlantic oceans (30–40 years). In the northern North Atlantic Ocean and its marginal sea, 137Cs discharged from nuclear reprocessing plants is transported to the North Sea, Barents Sea and coast of Norway, and Arctic Ocean on a decadal scale.

Published: May 2023

Abstract. Water data is a crucial asset for sustainable water resource management. However, the availability of China’s water datasets lags far behind modern expectations for open geoscientific data. This dataset is a part of the China Water Data Archive (CWDA), an upcoming national collection of water-related data covering all aspects of water data for boosting data sharing in China. The CWDA aims at providing free, clean, non-sensitive, coherent, and reliable water data within China for global researchers to support the national and global water resources management and the United Nations-Water Integrated Monitoring Initiative for Sustainable Development Goals 6 and 14. In this paper, we used Python and R language to collect, tidy, reorganize, and curate the publicly available inland and coastal/ocean surface water quality data in China, following a series of data quality dimensions (integrity, completeness, consistency, and accuracy). As the most comprehensive, publicly available, handy, and clean water quality dataset in China so far, it included water quality data for daily, weekly, and monthly in the period of 1980–2022, with 17 indicators for over 330,000 observations at 2384 sites from inland to coastal/ocean areas. This dataset will greatly support works relevant to the assessment, modelling, and projection of water quality, ocean biomass, and biodiversity in China.
Physico-chemical properties of the top 120 m of two ice cores in Dronning Maud Land (East Antarctica): an open window on spatial and temporal regional variability of environmental proxies

Published: May 2023

Abstract. The Antarctic ice sheet’s future contribution to sea level rise is difficult to predict, mostly because of the uncertainty and variability of the surface mass balance (SMB). Ice cores are used to locally (km scale) reconstruct SMB with a very good temporal resolution (up to sub-annual), especially in coastal areas where accumulation rates are high. The number of ice cores records has been increasing these last years, revealing an important spatial variability and different trends of SMB, highlighting the crucial need for greater spatial and temporal representativeness. We present records of density, water stable isotopes (δ18O, δD and deuterium excess), ions concentrations (Na+, K+, Mg+, Ca+, MSA, Cl-, SO42- and NO3-), and continuous electrical conductivity measurement (ECM), as well as age models and resulting surface mass balance from the top 120 m of two ice cores (FK17 and TIR18) drilled on two adjacent ice rises located in coastal Dronning Maud Land and dating back to the end of the 18th century. Both environmental proxies and derived data show contrasting behaviors, suggesting strong spatial and temporal variability at the regional scale. In terms of precipitation proxies, both ice cores show a long-term decrease of deuterium excess (d-excess) and a long-term increase of δ18O, although less pronounced. In terms of chemical proxies, the non-sea-salt sulfate (nssSO42-) concentrations of FK17 are twice the ones of TIR18 and display an increasing trend on the long-term while there is only a small increase after 1950 in TIR18. The SO42- / Na+ ratios show a similar contrast between FK17 and TIR18 and are consistently higher than the sea water ratio, indicating a dominant impact of the nssSO42- on the SO42- signature. The mean long-term SMB is similar for FK17 and TIR18 (0.57 and 0.56 m i.e. a-1 respectively), but the annual records are very different: since the 1950’s, TIR18 shows a continuous decrease while FK17 has shown an increasing trend until 1995 followed by a recent decrease. The datasets presented here offer numerous development possibilities for the interpretation of the different paleo profiles and for addressing the mechanisms behind the spatial and temporal variability observed at the regional scale (tens of km scale) in East Antarctica. The “Mass2Ant IceCores” datasets are available on Zenodo (https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.7848435; Wauthy et al., 2023).
Long Runout Landslides with Associated Longitudinal Ridges in Iceland as Analogues of Martian Landforms

Published: May 2023

Abstract. Much work has been done to study the behaviour of long runout landslides and their associated longitudinal ridges, yet the origin of the hypermobility of such landslides and the formation mechanism of longitudinal ridges are poorly understood. As terrestrial long runout landslides emplaced on glaciers commonly exhibit longitudinal ridges, the presence of these landforms has been used to infer the presence of ice on Mars, where hundreds of well-preserved long runout landslides with longitudinal ridges are found. However, the presence of the same landforms in regions where extensive glaciations did not occur, for instance, on the Moon and in the Atacama region on Earth, suggests that ice is not the only factor influencing the formation of long runout landslides with longitudinal ridges. Iceland is a unique region for its high spatial density of well-preserved hypermobile large landslides with longitudinal ridges. Here, we compiled the first catalogue of Icelandic long runout landslides with longitudinal ridges and we compared them with martian long runout landslides with longitudinal ridges of similar length. Moreover, we present detailed morphological observations of the Dalvík landslide deposit, in the Tröllaskagi peninsula, Iceland and compare them with morphological observations of martian landslides. Our results show that Icelandic long runout landslides share key features with martian analogue deposits, including splitting of longitudinal ridges and development of associated en-echelon features. Therefore, Icelandic long runout landslides with longitudinal ridges represent good analogues of martian landforms. Moreover, Iceland represents the ideal site to investigate these landforms at a regional scale and their link with ice retreat following the Late Glacial Maximum, which could also provide insights into martian paleoclimatic and paleoenvironmental conditions.

Abstract. The CryoGrid community model is a flexible toolbox for simulating the ground thermal regime and the ice–water balance for permafrost and glaciers, extending a well-established suite of permafrost models (CryoGrid  1, 2, and 3). The CryoGrid community model can accommodate a wide variety of application scenarios, which is achieved by fully modular structures through object-oriented programming. Different model components, characterized by their process representations and parameterizations, are realized as classes (i.e., objects) in CryoGrid. Standardized communication protocols between these classes ensure that they can be stacked vertically. For example, the CryoGrid community model features several classes with different complexity for the seasonal snow cover, which can be flexibly combined with a range of classes representing subsurface materials, each with their own set of process representations (e.g., soil with and without water balance, glacier ice). We present the CryoGrid architecture as well as the model physics and defining equations for the different model classes, focusing on one-dimensional model configurations which can also interact with external heat and water reservoirs. We illustrate the wide variety of simulation capabilities for a site on Svalbard, with point-scale permafrost simulations using, e.g., different soil freezing characteristics, drainage regimes, and snow representations, as well as simulations for glacier mass balance and a shallow water body. The CryoGrid community model is not intended as a static model framework but aims to provide developers with a flexible platform for efficient model development. In this study, we document both basic and advanced model functionalities to provide a baseline for the future development of novel cryosphere models.
Spatiotemporal seismicity pattern of the Taiwan orogen

Published: May 2023

Abstract. We investigate the temporal and spatial seismicity patterns prior to eight
M > 6 events nucleating in different regions of Taiwan through a
region–time–length algorithm and an analysis of a self-organizing spinodal
model. Our results show that the spatiotemporal seismicity variations during the preparation process of impending earthquakes display distinctive
patterns corresponding to tectonic settings. Q-type events occur in southern Taiwan and experience a seismic quiescence stage prior to the mainshock. A seismicity decrease of 2.5 < M < 4.5 events occurs around the relatively high b-value southern Central Range, which contributes to the accumulation of tectonic stress for preparing for the occurrence of the Q-type event. On the other hand, A-type events occur in central Taiwan and experience a seismic activation stage prior to the mainshock, which nucleates on the edge of the seismic activation area. We should pay attention when accelerating seismicity of 3 < M < 5 events appears within the low b-value area, which could promote the nucleation process of the A-type event.
The effect of site-specific wind conditions and individual pitch control on wear of blade bearings
Authors: Bartschat Arne , Behnke Karsten , Stammler Matthias
Published: May 2023

Abstract. The characteristics of a pitch controller determine how the wind turbine reacts to different wind conditions. Control strategies like individual pitch control are known for their ability to reduce the amplitudes of load cycles of the structures of the wind turbine while influencing the operation conditions of the blade bearings in a challenging way. However, the control strategy is not the only influencing factor with respect to failure modes of blade bearings like wear and raceway fatigue. The site-specific and stochastic wind conditions can cause wear-critical operating conditions, which are usually not reflected in the rather short time frames of aeroelastic simulations. This work analyses wind and operating conditions regarding their influence on wear in blade bearings. It is based on measured wind conditions and the modelled behavior of the IWT-7.5-164 reference wind turbine with respect to its pitch activity. The simulation data is used to determine the longest period of uninterrupted wear-critical operation and create a test program based on it for scaled and real-size blade bearings. Experimental results based on this test program show that wear-critical operation conditions can occur during normal operating of a wind turbine and cause wear damage to the bearing raceways.

Sehingga pada akhirnya pelajar dan mahasiswa pengawas hanya sebagai tumbal demokrasi.
MEMPERTAHANKAN PILKADA LANGSUNG

Published: May 2023

Pilkada bagian dari proses penguatan dan pendalaman demokrasi (deepening democracy) menjamin hak politik warga negara. Penerapan pemilukada langsung merupakan jawaban atas tuntutan aspirasi rakyat. Pemilukada langsung memperkuat partisipasi politik, pengembalian pemilihan gubernur ke DPRD mematikan partisipasi politik, disamping itu pemilukada langsung memperkuat legitimasi kepala daerah. Pemilihan kepala daerah oleh DPRD, menggeser demokrasi ke sistem oligarki (suara rakyat digantikan oleh segelintir elite). Pemilihan kepala daerah oleh DPRD menguntungkan partai pemenang pemilu legislatif, akibatnya partai menengah sulit menjadi kepala daerah. Pemerintah seharusnya bukan mengubah sistem pilkada langsung namun memikirkan bagaimana cara untuk menghemat biaya pemilu lewat pemilu serentak. Politik uang bisa berkurang jika pemerintah menyiapkan regulasi atau perangkat aturan yang ketat dan sangsi yang tegas terhadap yang melanggar hukum. Begitu juga intensitas konflik pilkada dari tahun ke tahun  kecenderungan mengalami penurunan. Pilkada langsung harus tetap dipertahankan, segala kelemahan dan kekurangannya harus terus diperbaiki, pengembalian pemilihan kepala daerah ke DPRD adalah kemunduran demokrasi.
IDENTITAS DAN GERAKAN SOSIAL DI RUMPIN
Authors: Ramadhan Gilang
Published: May 2023

The social movement cannot automatically come to the surface without the presence of anignition, one of the most attractive ignitions is the success story of another movement which is the reference group of a socially alienated society with the State. Identity then emerges as a means of binding of the movement so that the movement can have the spirit to rise from alienation and have the power to fight its rivals. This paper takes a case study of Rumpin farmers' resistance in Bogor over their land over functions by the Indonesian Air Force. The conclusion of this paper is that the presence of a one-sided reference group can lead to the spirit to be able to resist the rival movement if the reference group has an identity equivalent to them, but it would be disastrous to take the wrong reference group that is used as a reference in the movement because by itself the identity of the movement becomes blurred and also including the loss of the direction of the substance of a movement.

DINAMIKA HUBUNGAN MUHAMMADIYAH DAN PARTAI POLITIK DI INDONESIA
Authors: Sholikin Ahmad
Published: May 2023

Muhammadiyah's contact with political parties in actualizing their ideas and ideals will be discussed in this chapter. Muhammadiyah's involvement with political parties from the pre-independence era until now is divided into 4 patterns of relations. If it is analogous to Muhammadiyah's relationship with a Political Party like a marriage, there will be four "Marriage" models between Muhammadiyah and the Political Party. First is "Official Marriage" with Muhammadiyah being a special member of Masyumi, second is "Siri Marriage" when Muhammadiyah becomes the initiator of the establishment of Parmusi in Tanwir Ponorogo. Third "Mut'ah Marriage (Contract)" when some Muhammadiyah administrators were involved in the establishment of the National Mandate Party (PAN), to the point of disappointment that gave rise to the Sun Nation Party (PMB). The fourth most recent model is not the "Marriage" that takes place, but the "Divorce" of the Islamic purification and reform organization with political parties as formulated in Tanwir Denpasar (2001).
ANALISIS KERJASAMA AUSTRALIA DAN SELANDIA BARU DALAM ‘TRANS-TASMAN TRAVEL ARRANGEMENT’
Authors: Shafa Annisa Mediana
Published: May 2023

Australia and New Zealand's cooperation in the Trans-Tasman Travel Arrangement (TTTA) which was agreed in 1973 made it easier for both countries to travel freely, both for those who only wanted to travel temporarily or stay permanently. The basic fixed rules that were first introduced as the requirements for both countries to travel were the indigenous people of Australia and New Zealand or the original Australian and New Zealand passport holders. Australia has changed the TTTA rules several times by adding a number of requirements to minimize the misuse of free travel, namely exemption from checking passports to applying universal visas. After Australia;s changes, it was then followed by New Zealand's changes in the New Zealand Immigration Act. This collaboration has a large impact on both countries, namely in terms of education, social benefits, health, and others.

The Sumatran tiger population is on the edge of extinction due to uncontrolled habitat loss. The population of Sumatran tigers, which are only around 400, remaining in the forest. The main thing that causes the lack of the Sumatran tiger population is illegal hunting. Local people hunt the Sumatran tiger because people have economic problems. Thus, illegal trade emerged. Local people hunt Sumatran tigers, sell their body parts, it trusted that the body parts of tiger could heal diseases, and have magical powers for the protection and luck of the community. Thus, INGO International Organizations such as WWF and Tiger Range Countries formed the TX2 program that aims to double the tiger population. In addition, the theory used in this problem also uses Environmental Security.

Economic impact of restructuring the municipal wastewater treatment system in San Francisco: Possibilities for application in ukrainian realities
Authors: Shahini Elti , Bali Fabiola
Published: May 2023

The relevance of the subject matter is conditioned by the existing difficulties of operating the wastewater treatment system of large modern cities and the need to make qualitative changes in the structure of their functioning. The main purpose of the study is to investigate the economic effect of restructuring the municipal wastewater treatment system in the city of San Francisco in the context of analysing the promising possibilities of applying this experience in Ukrainian realities. The basis of the methodological approach is a combination of methods of systematic analysis of the experience gained in San Francisco during the restructuring of the wastewater treatment system, with an analytical investigation of the factors influencing the assessment of the economic effect of the implementation of this event. The study revealed the need for comprehensive investment into the restructuring of the wastewater treatment system existing in a large modern city to obtain a sustainable economic effect from the implementation of such programmes and improve the quality of water use services provided to residents of modern Ukrainian cities. The results obtained and the conclusions formulated on their basis are of significant practical importance from the standpoint of prospects for improving the functioning of wastewater treatment facilities in large modern Ukrainian cities and stabilising the overall environmental situation in these cities, as well as obtaining a tangible economic effect from the modernisation of wastewater treatment systems to improve the quality of services provided to city residents
Trade Integration and Economic Well-being: Evidence from Generalised Methods of Moments (GMM) in the D-8 Countries
Authors: Ozigbu Johnbosco Chukwuma
Published: May 2023

This paper contributes to the trade–development nexus by investigating the link between trade integration and economic well-being in the developing eight (D-8) countries comprising Bangladesh, Egypt, Indonesia, Iran, Malaysia, Nigeria, Pakistan, and Turkiye. Essentially, this paper examined how trade openness, financial openness, and the exchange rate contributed to gross national income (GNI) per capita (a proxy for economic well-being). The panel data obtained from the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD), the World Bank’s World Development Indicator (WDI), and the Chinn-Ito index between 2005 and 2021 were analysed using the two-step generalized method of moments (GMM), panel unit root, and Rao cointegration, among others. Evidence of a long-run relationship among the variables was established from the Kao cointegration test results at the 5 per cent significance level. This suggests that trade integration has a forecasting ability for economic well-being in the D-8 countries. The results of the two-step GMM revealed that trade openness significantly enhanced the economic well-being of the D-8 countries. This finding explains that cross-border trade among the members of the D-8 countries plays a substantial role in improving the standard of living of the population. Similarly, the results showed that as the degree of financial openness grew, economic well-being improved significantly. However, the results further revealed that exchange rate depreciation had an insignificant negative effect on economic well-being. Given the findings, this paper recommends that policymakers in the D-8 countries should synergise to implement a non-restrictive trade policy, gradually collapse the barriers to financial openness, and promote exchange rate stability to create more opportunities for economic development.
Black Mental Health Matters: An Innovative Resource at a University Counseling Center
Authors: Miller RaiNesha L. , Long Erika , Nash Sara
Published: May 2023

As many of the articles appearing in this special issue describe, during the year of 2020, the United States faced significant health and socio-political challenges as the result of the COVID-19 pandemic and the racial injustices suffered by Black communities. These larger social issues further intensified Black students’ mental health concerns, both those common to all college students and those specific to race-related stress and race related trauma on college and university campuses. In this article, we explore the intersectional challenges Black students confront and how these challenges create unique race related stressors for these students while navigating a predominately White institution (PWI). We then discuss barriers to help-seeking behaviors and culturally specific coping strategies and conclude by suggesting the importance of developing non-traditional therapeutic means, such as mental health podcast episodes, to mitigate Black students’ barriers to access, validate their lived experiences, and promote their overall wellbeing.
Helper, Healer, Mitigator: The Essential Role of the Human Services Provider in Current and Post-Pandemic Climates
Authors: Suggs Brittany G. , Robins Lauren B. , Cannedy Megan , Gantt Alexandra C. , Brookover Dana L. , Johnson Kaprea F.
Published: May 2023

In the heart of the current COVID-19 outbreak, individuals are experiencing higher rates of mental and emotional distress associated with the unpredictability of a pandemic experience. Human services providers (HSPs) serve as essential supports for individuals, families, and communities affected by the current pandemic. However, relatively little guidance currently exists on the work of HSPs in response to COVID-19, including strategies and interventions that HSPs can employ to effectively address the growing mental and emotional health demands during the pandemic. In response, this article identifies the vital role and strategic response approaches of HSPs during a pandemic crisis. Further, we explore how HSPs can leverage, in a practical way, existing strategies within their helper, healer, and mitigator capacities to sustain individual and community care in the immediate, intermediate, and extended time frames of a pandemic occurrence. This is the first of two articles comprising the special issue’s section on Social Systems in the Moment.
The Association Between Adaptive Reserve, Burnout, and Stress Among Rehabilitation Counselors During the COVID-19 Pandemic
Authors: Lin Chien-Chun , Ni Chung-Fan
Published: May 2023

The final section of the special issue presents a pair of articles which look at human services responders and professional pressures. In the first of these, our study focused on understanding rehabilitation counselors’ perceptions of the likelihood that their workplace can adapt to new challenges and make sustainable changes and how this perception is reflected in their level of emotional exhaustion, feelings of depersonalization, and the likelihood of achieving personal accomplishments. A total of 72 rehabilitation counselors completed a survey consisting of five measures, including a demographic questionnaire. The study’s results suggest that the more confident rehabilitation counselors are that their workplace can adapt to new challenges, the less burnout and stress they will experience, and the lower their job turnover intentions. Our study also examined whether rehabilitation counselors’ turnover intentions are related to the COVID-19 pandemic. The findings can help administrators provide appropriate training to improve teamwork, decrease counselors’ burnout and stress levels, and ultimately enhance quality service delivery.
“Survival of the Fittest” and George Eliot’s Critique of Capitalism in The Mill on the Floss
Authors: Guo Xiaotong
Published: May 2023

In The Mill on the Floss, the ruthless rules of social Darwinism play out even before the term “survival of the fittest” was coined, and the fiction translates the “survival of the fittest” that Darwin identified in nature to a human community in the early stages of industrial capitalism. This article aims to demonstrate how George Eliot evaluates laissez-faire capitalism through her use of the Darwinian struggle for existence among the Tullivers and the Dodsons, and how George Eliot’s criticism of materialism and Mammonism of the early industrial capitalism in The Mill on the Floss works as a warning for her Victorian contemporaries who are devoted to “economic survival of the fittest.”
