Authors: Pratap Singh Rathore Saurabh
Published: June 2023

An assessment of those needs, also known as a needs analysis, must be carried out in order to ascertain if the organization's requirements, objectives, and concerns can be achieved or addressed via training. In conducting our research, we reviewed training and development-related writing from 1971 to 2023. We believed that the use of more sophisticated training evaluation techniques and statistical approaches, together with an increase in the technological complexity of training design and methodology, set the post-1971 era apart. To be effective, a qualitative review must place more of a focus on qualitative methods of evaluating training effectiveness. Similar to earlier training and development reviews, the present study considered practitioner-oriented literature if it met the criteria listed below for inclusion. A thorough search of the academic literature was conducted to find empirical studies that assessed training programmes or examined the effectiveness of specific training components. After reviewing their abstracts, it was decided to keep 58 articles and papers since they had the proper information. Our research showed that organisations with a strong reputation for employee development are a completely different tale. The majority of businesses monitor the effects of their training efforts in the area of organisational effectiveness. For the second category, increases in productivity, revenue, and profitability are typical signs of organisational success. Overall, there is far more research on team and individual benefits than there is on organisational ones.

Published: June 2023

The ISPO (Indonesian Sustainable Palm Oil) framework, which describes best practises for the production of ecologically friendly oil palm plantations, absolutely has to be put into reality. This is of the utmost importance. This study aims to analyse the behavioural intentions of independent small holders located within the Riau Regency in regard to extending their sustainable palm oil enterprises. Specifically, this research will look at how these individuals plan to grow their palm oil operations. Throughout the course of this investigation, structural equation modelling was utilised as a tool for doing both descriptive and inferential analysis (SEM). The findings indicated that attitudes (general attitudes, personal attitudes, emotional values, and intelligence) and perceptions of behavioural control (experience, knowledge, media, and intervention), which in turn influence behaviour, are the primary contributors to farmers' behavioural intentions, which in turn influence farmers' actual behaviour. It is well established that farmers' behavioural intentions are unaffected by subjective norms, including age, gender, education level, income level, and religion. Farmers have started to be encouraged to try to work in groups through the formation of farmer groups and cooperatives as part of the process of fostering and developing oil palm. This is due to the fact that ISPO certification will only be given to farmers who are members of farmer groups or cooperatives. This is due to the fact that certification from ISPO will only be granted to farmers who satisfy the standards of both.

Authors: Adrião Maria Antonia Veiga
Published: June 2023

This article was presented at the "I Jornada Histórico: Conflitos Teóricas Lutas e Lugars" – Table 2: "Professor Historian: Strategies of Teaching", proposed by the Academic Center of History of the History Course of the Vale do Acaraú State University (UVA) held in May 2022. The questions addressed were thought from the reflections made with students of the first semester in the classes of "Methodology of Scientific Work" when it was reflected on the problems and solutions that modern science has posed to humanity, and how this "humanity" represented here by some personalities who expressed their dissatisfactions publicly, therefore, how this humanity tensions changes in political paradigms, social, cultural and consequently scientific. The teaching of History stands out for being one of the fields of investigation that presents itself as a social and state problem, to deal with collective memory. It was sought, in this way, through research in critical bibliography, to understand how the science of History produces historical consciousness and for whom it produces. It is concluded that science is present in society, but most people are not attentive to the scientific and cultural production that it represents while proposing a different way of dealing with the university and school curriculum.

Authors: Ferreira Isabela Natália da Silva , Takaki Galba Maria Campos
Published: June 2023

The literature describes several studies focused on the application of S. maltophilia in different areas of biotechnology. Due to its ease of interaction with numerous environments and living beings, this bacterium has an excellent adaptability, being able to convert different substrates into products of high environmental and technological interest. Stenotrophomonas maltophilia is a gram-negative, aerobic, ubiquitous, rod-shaped bacterium belonging to the class of gammaproteobacteria and can be found in various natural and anthropogenic environments, e.g. soil, water, sediments or in association with plants. Biosurfactants are an alternative, compatible with the environment, for the use of chemically synthesized surfactants, since it is a bioproduct obtained through the metabolism of microorganisms and plants. Like their synthetic counterparts, biosurfactants comprise a wide variety of chemical structures and also excellent surfactant properties. The literature presents a wide range of studies focused on the production of biosurfactant by S. maltophilia using several substrates, temperature conditions, pH, salinade and fermentation times. In addition, there is also a huge variety of application of these biosurfactants produced, which drives the incentive to study this microorganism in the production of biosurfactants.

This study aimed to analyze the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on leprosy care from the perspective of health professionals. This is a descriptive, cross-sectional, service evaluation study using a printed questionnaire, aimed at medical health professionals, nurses and physiotherapists. The study was carried out with 17 health professionals, 7 nurses, 7 physicians and 3 physiotherapists belonging to 7 primary care health units in a municipality in Pará. It was observed that only 24% of the professionals interviewed underwent sector relocation, 82% of professionals said that there were changes in the service profile of the health units, there was a need to reschedule care for patients, 88% of professionals underwent rotation of activities, 47% said there was a lack of medication for the treatment of leprosy in the units where they work, 53% said there was no lack of materials for the care of leprosy patients, there were difficulties in scheduling laboratory tests, in the evaluation of home and social contacts and in the referral and counter-referral of patients. From these data, it is concluded that the Covid-19 pandemic created difficulties for the care and treatment of patients with leprosy in participating primary health care units, causing delays in appointments, rescheduling of appointments, extensions of treatment due to lack of medication, difficulties in evaluating contacts and active search for new cases, contributing to generate a negative impact on the program and consequently on the health system.

Published: June 2023

Specific prevention is one of the levels of primary prevention, characterized by actions during the pre-pathogenic period on pathogens and their vectors. Among the various forms of specific protection, we have vaccination, which consists of the application of etiological agents or parts thereof, such as viruses and bacteria, living or dead, and is currently considered the most efficient way of protection against infectious diseases, given that the stimulus for the production of antibodies occurs. Thus, after being tested and approved for efficacy and safety, each and every vaccine is recommended by the health authorities and legally considered an essential health measure.

Published: June 2023

Aluminum and its alloys, compared to steel, have a higher strength/weight ratio, good electrical and thermal conductivity, and better corrosion resistance. Among the various aluminum alloys registered today, we can highlight those that make use of copper, the third most consumed metal in the world. In this context, niobium stands out, which plays an important role in the production of metallic alloys due to its high melting point, resistance to acid attack, and superconductivity at high temperatures. In recent decades, several studies have been carried out to establish the relationship between the thermal solidification parameters and typical as-cast structure in macrostructural and microstructural scales in aluminum alloys, aiming to optimize the properties of these alloys. In this sense, the main objective of this work was to investigate the effects of heat flow parameters, such as growth and cooling rates (VL and TR), on primary interphase dendritic growth (1α) in equiaxed dendrites in Al-3Cu-0.5Nb (wt.%) alloy (wt.%), which was horizontally solidified in a recent study. The 1α variation with VL and TR has been characterized by mathematical equations given by the general expressions 1α=Constant. (VL)-1.1 and 1α=Constant.(TR)-0.55, which represents the interphase dendritic growth laws, where the exponents -0.55 and -1.1 are in absolute agreement with the primary spacing growth laws in columnar dendrites.

Authors: Mororó Alisson Emanuel Silva , Silva Jainara de Jesus , Oliveira Danielle Aparecida da Silva
Published: June 2023

Contactless technology was implemented in magnetic cards to facilitate financial transactions between customers and merchants. One of the problems is that: because it is a technology capable of making payments without the need for a password, many people end up choosing not to use such technology for fear of carrying out transactions without consent. Therefore, this work aims to disseminate the operation of NFC applied to magnetic cards and a tutorial on how to produce a low-cost “armored” card holder. Therefore, it is important that people are informed about the technology so that they can protect themselves and do not stop using it, facilitating and speeding up their financial transitions and that they do not need to contact the terminal, preventing the proliferation of viruses and bacteria. Digital materials were produced for digital platforms using two animation software addressing the explanation and operation of the technology. An armored card holder was also produced, creating an assembly tutorial, using cardboard, cardboard, aluminum foil and tools such as scissors, ruler, etc. As a result, 03 shared publications were obtained, these publications took the information to some people who were afraid to use the resource. Therefore, with this work it was noticed that people need to be well informed about new technologies, especially those that facilitate their daily lives. In addition, it is important that science has a language that is more accessible to the lay public, so that it does not fall into superficial, even false, information and end up being held hostage by outdated procedures.

A doença da COVID-19 teve seus primeiros relatos em Wuhan, na China, se espalhando rapidamente ao redor do mundo devido à elevada taxa de contágio. Um exame laboratorial importante é o Dímero-D, no qual os seus níveis aumentam de acordo com a intensidade da infecção. A presente pesquisa se baseia em um trabalho qualitativo, descritivo e retrospectivo. Trata-se de um estudo de caso clínico, com o objetivo de identificar a relação do exame de Dímero-D com a COVID-19 em um paciente acometido pela doença, devido à infecção grave ocasionada pelo SARS-CoV-2 e suas possíveis complicações. O paciente pertence ao banco de dados do Laboratório de Análises Clínicas Guimarães, de Tupã/SP. Após a infecção pela COVID-19, o paciente se automedicou sem prescrição médica, agravando o seu quadro clínico que acarretou, como consequência, a sua hospitalização na UTI. Os níveis de Dímero-D se elevaram (15.021,00 ng/mL FEU), indicando grave lesão pulmonar. O mesmo possuía hiperdia e decorrente da doença associada ao tratamento medicamentoso, o paciente evoluiu à um quadro de insuficiência renal aguda (IRA), com aumentos de ureia (106 mg/dL) e creatinina (4,36 mg/dL), sendo encaminhado para hemodiálise. O exame de proteinúria 24 horas (3.765 mg/24h), apresentou aumentos indicando lesão renal. Conclui-se que o paciente acometido pela COVID-19 de modo agravante, eleva os níveis de Dímero-D, indicativo de possível desenvolvimento à quadros de embolia pulmonar e septsemia. A longa hospitalização contribuiu para a predisposição da IRA. Os achados laboratoriais são complementares e importantes para diagnóstico e prognóstico da infecção aguda da COVID-19.

Published: June 2023

Currently, the electrochemical method as one of the fast, accurate, and reliable techniques for detecting heavy metals such as Co and Ni has been widely developed. Cyclic voltammetry methodology was successfully employed for determination of trace cobalt (Co) and nickel (Ni). Co and Ni levels are studied because they can cause water pollution and can be toxic, and non-biodegradable which influences the health of living things. To obtain results with high accuracy, this study tested several electrochemical parameters. Based on the results processed, the CoNi level in the solution can be measured well in the voltage range, scan rate, and pH of the solution, respectively, at -1.00 V to 0.75 V, 250 mV/s, and pH 3 (Ni) and pH 7 (Co). This work have been validated and showed good results with correlation coefficients of Co and Ni. The detection limit and quantity limit for Co and Ni were 510.2 ppm and 723.5 ppm, respectively, with 274.99 ppm and 916.66 ppm. Co and Ni metal RSDs also showed good values (<5%). In this study, Co and Ni levels in lab waste obtained by the cyclic voltammetry method were 510.2 ppm and 1666.47 ppm, and the results obtained from atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS) measurements of 510.7 ppm and 1676 ppm. The developed electrochemical systems based are giving new inputs to the existing devices or leading to the development of novel heavy metal detection tools with interest for applications in fields such as environmental, safety, security controls or other industries.

Published: June 2023

Vitamins are important nutrients that are contained in food and carry out distinct and important bodily tasks that are required for sustaining good health. A xanthine alkaloid known as caffeine is widely distributed in natural plant sources such as coffee, cocoa beans, cola nuts, and tea leaves. Additionally, it is a raw material in several drinks. Its usage increases blood pressure, diuresis, blood sugar, generation of stomach acid and pepsin, plasma levels of fatty acids, cortisol, and epinephrine, intraocular pressure, and calcium loss, which causes bone loss. The phrase "energy drinks" refers to beverages that advertise that they will give you an energy boost, which has led to an increase in the popularity of "energy drinks" that include caffeine. The caffeine and vitamin B-complex concentrations of a few different energy drinks were tested and compared in this study project. Samples of ten (10) different energy drink brands were chosen at random from Nkwo Ogbe Market in Ihiala, and their caffeine and vitamin B1, B2, B6, and B12 concentrations were determined using a spectrophotometric technique. The findings revealed that caffeine concentrations varied from 1.11 mg/L to 2.13 mg/L, and that vitamin B1 in energy drinks had the lowest value (0.014 mg/kg). All samples of energy drinks had caffeine levels below the 400 mg/L benchmark set by the National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC). In order to avoid negative consequences, it is important to monitor any decrease in intake of these beverages because other criteria, such as aspartame and sugar, were also often below the established levels.

Araştırmada, nitel ve nicel verilerin bir arada kullanıldığı yöntemlerden biri olan keşfedici karma yöntem tercih edilmiştir. Araştırmanın nitel boyutunda durum çalışması deseni, nicel boyutunda betimsel tarama modeli kullanılmıştır. Araştırmanın nitel boyutu için çalışma grubu Sivas il merkezindeki destekleme ve yetiştirme kurslarına katılan 20 öğretmen, 20 öğrenci ve 20 veliden oluşmaktadır. Nicel boyutu için Sivas ili merkezinde bulunan ortaokullarda görev alan 75 ortaokul öğretmeni, 100 ortaokul öğrencisi ve 100 öğrenci velisinden oluşmaktadır. Nitel verileri toplama işlemi görüşme formları aracılığı ile gerçekleştirilmiştir. Nicel boyutunda ise görüşme formlarından elde edilen veriler ışığında anket oluşturulmuş ve bu anket uygulanarak veriler elde edilmiştir. Analiz sürecinde öncelikle, yazılı formlar deşifre edilip çözümlemeler yapılmıştır. Öncelikle öğretmenlerin, sonrasında öğrencilerin ve son olarak velilerin görüşlerinin analizinde, ifadelerin benzerliğine göre gruplamalar yapılmıştır. Nicel araştırma tekniklerine göre, uygulanan anketler, SPSS 22 istatistik paket programı ile analiz edilmiştir. Araştırma genel olarak öğretmenlerin, öğrencilerin ve velilerin destekleme ve yetiştirme kurslarına ilişkin görüşlerinin çoğunlukla olumlu yönde olduğu ve kursları birçok yönden faydalı ve gerekli buldukları tespit edilmiştir. Ancak kurslara ilişkin aksayan, geliştirilmesi gereken yönlerin de bulunduğu görülmüştür. Bu alanlarda düzenlemelerin yapıldığı takdirde kursların çok daha nitelikli daha verimli ve daha etkili hâle gelebileceği saptanmıştır.

Abstract The paper proposes a new theoretical and experimental model for measuring the encodability of Brazilian Portuguese, in order to permit estimating the spelling difficulty degree of any given spoken word in Portuguese during writing under auditory dictation tests. The model uses Portuguese Phoneme- Grapheme Encoding Index Tables, derived from the analysis of 4.55 million Phoneme-Grapheme Relationships. According to the encodability model, the degree of spelling difficulty presented by any given spoken word corresponds to the arithmetic mean of the Encoding Indexes involved in spelling the spoken word under auditory dictation. In a study conducted to assess whether the encodability model can account for encoding precision, 154 students (61 from college and 93 from elementary school) spelled under dictation 560 very rare spoken words made up of 280 different Phoneme-Grapheme Relationships. Each student was required to encode approximately 3,676 instances of voice units. Regression analysis revealed that word spelling precision increased with word encodability degree. The study suggests that the present Encodability model is a powerful tool for predicting word-spelling precision in Portuguese. Keywords: spelling, dictation, phonology, encoding, encodability, assessment
Mathematics Resiliency in the New Normal: A Theory Development
Authors: Callaman Roar A.
Published: June 2023

This paper aimed to generate a theory that answers the question, “How do students cope with the challenges in learning mathematics in the normal? This study made used of the deductive axiomatic approach in theory generation following the steps prescribed by Padua (2012). Four axioms were formulated: (1) Students employ time management in studying math; (2) Students uses compensation strategies in overcoming challenges; (3) Students’ resourcefulness leads them to learn mathematics; and (4) Students asked help from teachers and peers in understanding mathematical concepts. Two propositions were derived from these axioms: students’ cope with the challenges in learning mathematics by (1) direct coping strategies support students’ resiliency in learning mathematics and (2) Indirect coping strategies indirectly provide support for coping strategies through planning, socializing with others and increasing empathy. From these propositions, the Students’ Mathematics Resiliency Based Theory is formulated: The Students’ Mathematics Resiliency Theory states that resiliency in learning mathematics is affected by both direct and indirect coping strategies. Direct coping strategies include compensation strategies, while indirect strategies include social, time management, and resourcefulness.
