Authors: Sutikno Yadi , Hosan Hosan , Jelita Rida , Irawati Irawati , Chowmas Dharmaji
Published: October 2024

This study aimed to evaluate the effect of varied and interactive learning methods, such as group discussions, role-playing, and multimedia tools, compared to traditional, lecture-based methods on student learning outcomes in Buddhist and Ethics Education for junior high school students. An experimental design was used with two groups: a control group that followed traditional, lecture-based instruction and an experimental group that applied these varied and interactive methods. The study involved 60 students, evenly divided between the two groups. Research instruments included questionnaires to assess student engagement and motivation, interviews to provide qualitative insights into student experiences, and essay tests to evaluate student learning outcomes. The results indicated that the experimental group achieved a higher average score (85.20) compared to the control group (74.50), with a t-test revealing a significant difference (p 0.01) and a large effect size (Cohen's d = 1.95), indicating a substantial impact of the interactive methods. The study concluded that varied and interactive learning methods demonstrate greater effectiveness in improving student learning outcomes compared to traditional, lecture-based methods. These findings support the use of more dynamic teaching strategies in educational settings, though the study's limitations include a small sample size and lack of longitudinal data. Future research should expand the sample and incorporate long-term analysis to better understand the lasting effects of these methods.

Published: October 2024

This study explores students' attitudes toward using iPads as interactive multimedia tools in learning Islamic education (PAI) and examines the impact of this approach on learning quality. With the growing integration of technology in education, understanding the effects of interactive multimedia like iPads on students' learning experiences is critical. A mixed-methods approach was employed, involving both quantitative and qualitative analysis. A sample of 123 students from grades 7 to 9 was selected through stratified random sampling from a school that uses iPads in its learning system. Additionally, ten students were purposively chosen for interviews based on varying levels of iPad engagement. Quantitative data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and regression analysis, while qualitative data were analyzed thematically. The findings indicated that students generally had a positive attitude toward using iPads in PAI learning. In both quantitative and qualitative assessments, students described the iPad-based learning as "fun," "interesting," "flexible," and preferred over traditional textbooks. Regression analysis revealed a significant positive effect of students' attitudes on PAI learning quality (Sig = 0.000 0.05). Qualitative data further showed that using iPads improved comprehension, learning effectiveness, and outcomes. The positive attitudes toward iPads suggest that interactive multimedia can enhance student engagement and learning in PAI. This study highlights how the use of iPads positively impacts both the learning process and outcomes, supporting more effective Islamic education. This research demonstrates that students’ positive attitudes toward iPads significantly improve the quality of PAI learning. The findings underscore the importance of incorporating interactive multimedia tools like iPads in teaching to enhance student learning experiences.

Przyczyny odmów w wywiadach kwestionariuszowych przeprowadzonych face-to-face
Authors: Orzechowski Paweł
Published: September 2024

The article addresses the problem of refusals in survey interviews, a persistent issue that can negatively impact the final sample composition and lead to errors in the extrapolation of conclusions. In this context, information regarding the reasons for declining to participate in surveys, as collected by interviewers in the culturally diverse community of the border town of Cieszyn, was analysed. The research project’s terrain and concept were outlined, existing typologies of refusals were reviewed, the results of own research were presented, and conclusions were summarised. Given the changes brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic and the war in Ukraine, one might have expected an increase in the frequency of health-related concerns and safety worries as reasons for refusal. Although these hypotheses could not be confirmed on a micro scale, further investigation on a nationwide level would be worthwhile.
Iliada psychoterapii
Authors: Popławski Maciej
Published: September 2024

In analysing the case study of Sigmund Freud’s Dora, the author refers to the thoughts of Michel Foucault and James Hillman. Foucault treated the case study as an example of knowledge-power, while Hillman treated it as a type of literary fiction. Dora’s case study is, as Hillman observes, “the Iliad of psychotherapy”, the first great therapeutic story. Freud, combining the fields of medicine and literature, discovered a vehicle by which he could announce a new idea and method to the world. In this article, the author strives to show how fiction brought to life a new type of power, created truth, and convinced individuals to accept it.
Patchwork Gothic in Polish Vampire Films
Authors: Grabias Magdalena
Published: September 2024

The article explores the emergence of Gothic elements in Polish cinema, specifically in the realm of vampire films. Despite the Polish literary market being saturated with horror, Polish cinema has conspicuously shied away from the genre for decades. However, the popularity of Hollywood Gothic cinema has influenced the once-hermetic Polish film industry, leading to the inclusion of classic Gothic themes, characters, and visuals in Polish vampire films. The article delves into the history of Polish horror cinema, and its relation to Hollywood Gothic cinema, whilst focusing on the vampire aspect of horror. In addition, it highlights the concept of “patchwork Gothic”, which involves blending elements of western and Slavic cultures, aesthetics and characters. By analysing two Polish vampire films, I Like Bats (1985) and The Lullaby (2010), in reference to the notion of patchwork Gothic, the author argues that the combination of disparate cultural influences creates a unique and dynamic interpretation of the Gothic genre in Polish cinema.

Relationship between the composition of the audit committee and earnings quality in Tier One banks in Nairobi City County, Kenya.
Authors: Luvisi Elizabeth , Waweru Fredrick
Published: September 2024

This study investigates the relationship between audit committee composition and earnings quality in Tier One banks in Nairobi City County, Kenya. The composition of audit committees, particularly the presence of independent directors, financial experts, and industry experts, is hypothesized to significantly influence the quality of reported earnings. Using a sample of six Tier One banks over the period 2016-2021, this study employs a correlational research design to examine this relationship. Data was collected through questionnaires administered to 90 respondents across operational, middle, and lower management levels, with a response rate of 67%. The study utilized descriptive statistics, correlation analysis, and multiple regression analysis to analyze the data. Key findings indicate a positive and statistically significant relationship between audit committee composition and earnings quality. Specifically, the presence of independent directors (r = 0.38, p < 0.05), financial experts (r = 0.29, p < 0.05), and industry experts (r = 0.26, p < 0.05) on the audit committee were all positively correlated with measures of earnings quality. The regression analysis further confirmed these relationships, controlling for other audit committee characteristics such as size and meeting frequency. These findings suggest that the composition of audit committees plays a crucial role in enhancing the quality of financial reporting in Tier One banks in Kenya. The study recommends that regulatory bodies and bank management prioritize the appointment of independent directors with relevant financial and industry expertise to audit committees. This research contributes to the existing literature on corporate governance in the banking sector and provides practical implications for improving financial reporting quality in emerging markets.
Application of the STIRPAT Model in unravelling Carbon Dioxide (CO2) emission patterns in the India and Global scales

Published: September 2024

This study explores the significance of Kaya’s Identity in understanding and addressing CO2-emissions (CO2-emi) in both India and globally, utilising FAOSTAT data from 1991 to 2021. Kaya's Identity breaks down CO2-emi into population, GDP per capita (GDP-PC), emissions intensity (EI), and CO2-Emissions Intensity (CO2-EI). The STIRPAT model was used to analyse these factors, with Ridge regression applied to address multicollinearity. The findings highlight that population growth is a major driver of emissions, with increases of 4.14% in India and 21.36% globally. India's GDP-PC growth of 7.69%, compared to 3.67% globally, also significantly contributes to emissions. Despite improvements in energy efficiency and transitions to renewable energy, CO2-emi rose by 6.46% in India and 2.29% globally. The study identifies positive associations between population growth and GDP-PC with CO2-emi, while EI and CO2-EI show negative associations. Forecasts suggest that in India, sustained GDP-PC growth initially curbed CO2-emi, but post-2080, rising population and energy demands accelerated emissions. Globally, consistent GDP-PC growth initially slowed emissions, but after 2000, population growth and increased energy consumption led to a significant surge, driven by slower economic expansion and higher fossil fuel use. The results also indicate a long-term cointegration relationship between CO2-emi and the selected variables at both the all-India and global levels. The significantly negative coefficient for CO2-emi lagged by one period (CO2emi(-1)) suggests a strong long-run adjustment mechanism both at the all-India and global levels. This study underscores the need for integrated strategies addressing population growth, GDP-PC, energy efficiency, and clean energy adoption to combat climate change sustainably. Policymakers should focus on emerging technologies such as carbon capture, understanding consumer behaviour's impact on emissions, analysing regional disparities, and developing long-term emissions scenarios.

On the problem of annual overfishing of the silver bream Blicca bjoerkna (Cyprinidae) in industrial fishing in the Astrakhan region
Authors: Solokhina T. A. , Barabanov V. V. , Gorokhov M. N.
Published: September 2024

The silver bream Blicca bjoerkna and the small-sized common bream Abramis brama are characterized by external similarity, which contributes to manipulations with the substitution of one species (common bream) by another (silver bream) when taking into account the volume of industrial fishing in the Astrakhan region. This is due to the fact that in the period of spring fishing season during common bream spawning migration, the share of non-commercial common bream in commercial catches increases (to 20–30 %), the catch of which is limited in accordance with the Fishing Rules. In order not to exceed the allowable volume of by-catch of non-large common bream, fish producers register en masse catches of small-sized bream as a catch of silver bream, which causes significant damage to common bream fish stocks through oversampling of first-time maturing individuals of the population. In recent years, the share of non-commercial common bream recorded as a silver bream in May alone is 13–28% of its official catch during this period. In order to reduce the catch of first spawning common bream producers of non-commercial length on the water bodies of the Astrakhan region in the period from April 21 to May 20, it is recommended to introduce a ban on industrial fishing of silver bream.
Trophological studies for calculating the receiving capacity in the interests of artificial reproduction of sterlet in the Volga-Caspian Fisheries Subdistrict
Authors: Mikhailova A. V. , Tikhonova E. Y. , Rastorgueva S. V. , Minakova E. V.
Published: September 2024

The article presents the results of trophological studies of pass-through and riverine fish species in the root channel and delta of the Volga River. The aim of the work was to establish food competitors of juvenile sterlet from artificial reproduction in the places of its release and feeding. As a result, the nutrition spectra and the degree of filling of the digestive tracts of a number of cyprinid, catfish and goby fish species were studied. Based on the conducted studies, the daily rations and the frequency of occurrence of forage organisms in the food of each fish species were determined. The obtained materials are included in the calculation of the receiving capacity and serve as the basis for determining the optimal volume of release of factory sterlet juveniles into the watercourses of the Volga River in the Astrakhan region.
The effect of temperature on feeding and growth of australian redclaw crayfish Cherax quadricarinatus (Decapoda, Parastacidae)
Authors: Kryakhova N. V. , Borisov R. R. , Nikonova I. N.
Published: September 2024

The effect of temperature on feed intake and growth of juvenile Australian redclaw crayfish Cherax quadicarinatus was studied by individual observations. Three temperatures were studied: 19–20°C, 23–24°C and 27–28°C. Tetra Wafer Mix compound was used as feed. The duration of the experiment was 60 days. The correlation of feed intake with temperature, weight of juveniles and molting was shown. At the beginning of the experiment, the feed consumption of crayfish with a weight of less than 0,5 g was 2,7% at a temperature 19–20°C; 4,8% for 23–24°C and 5,3% for 27–28°C of the individual’s weight per day. At the end of the experiment, in juveniles weighing more than 2,5 g, the feed consumption for variants 23–24°C and 27–28°C was 1,5% and 2,1%, respectively. The growth rate depended on temperature and at 19–20°C was 3–4 times lower than in the other two versions of the experiment. Based on the data obtained, it was concluded that the range of 23–28°C is within the temperature range optimal for cultivating juveniles. The temperature of 19–20°C does not ensure effective growth of juveniles, however, at this temperature the release of juveniles into ponds is possible.

Authors: Bakanev S. V. , Stesko A. V.
Published: September 2024

The paper presents the results of the spatiotemporal standardization of the stock biomass index of red king crab in the Russian EEZ of the Barents Sea carried out using the generalized additive mixed effect model (GAMM) which was implemented in the sdmTMB library of the Renvironment. The spatiotemporal approach used in species distribution modelling within GAMM enables taking into account numerous environmental factors and fishing gears, thereby increasing the quality of the assessment especially in areas with data shortage. Additionally, in modelling the stock density for areas with no observations the space-time autocorrelation in between hauls is also taken into consideration.
Using artificial intelligence algorithms in the investigation of mixed layer depth seasonal changes in the Barents Sea
Authors: Ivshin V. A.
Published: September 2024

The study aims at discovering features of seasonal changes in the mixed layer depth (MLD) of the Barents Sea in 1993–2020.

Charts of the distribution of the MLD in the Barents Sea in 1993–2020 provided by the Copernicus Marine Service were used as the material of the study.

Methods of the study: cluster analysis, machine learning, neuronal networks, the nearest neighbor method (kNN).

Results. Classification of the data sets of the MLD distribution according to their seasonal features was carried out based on the modelling using AI algorithms and machine learning. It was concluded that winter is specified by two classes (increased/decreased values of the layer thickness). The third class includes spring and autumn when distributions of the MLD are close to one another, and the fourth class comprises summer (June-September) when the MLD grows very slowly.

Practical relevance. The results will contribute to a better understanding of the hydrophysical processes of the Barents Sea and can further be used as series of independent variables to study the Barents Sea ecosystem and to estimate a stock and a catch forecast of commercial aquatic organisms.
Analysis of the dynamics of production and foreign trade of fish products in Russia. Prospects for the development of the industry in the context of economic sanctions
Authors: Gadzhimirzoev G. I. , Tsypin A. P. , Nuykina E. Y.
Published: September 2024

Purpose: based on long-term data on the dynamics of fish catches and foreign trade in fish products, as well as international comparisons of world fishing powers, analyze the prospects for the development of the domestic fishing industry in the new economic conditions of sanctions confrontation with the countries of the collective West.

Method: used such methods of general scientific knowledge as analysis and synthesis, as well as comparisons, tabular and graphical methods.

Novelty: a detailed assessment of the factors affecting the growth of domestic fishing and fish farming, including the development of the domestic fishing fleet, was made. The prospects for expanding the sale of fish products on world markets, including on the basis of data on current and prospective consumption in different regions of the world, were considered.

Results: the study analyzed a number of sources, including FAOSTAT and Rosstat commodity resource balances, in terms of production, consumption and cross-border trade in fish products. It has been established that after 2014 own consumption and imports are declining, while exports, on the contrary, are gradually increasing. Thus, the main driver of production growth in the industry is expansion to foreign markets. In the context of strengthening anti-Russian sanctions policy, it is necessary to diversify the sales markets for Russian fish products, however, an outdated production base is a significant limitation for the development of the industry.

Materials and methods: Fishery and biological data on the spawning stock of the Azov anchovy were collected in surveys and bioresources monitoring carried out by the Azov-Black Sea branch of the VNIRO («AzNIIRKH») in 2000–2021. Satellite sea level data were used in the analysis of sea water circulation. These data, as well as satellite information on sea surface temperature for March-June 2000–2021 for the north-eastern part of the Black Sea and the southern part of the Azov Sea were taken from the website of the Copernicus Marine Service information system. Graphical and statistical methods of analyzing multi-year changes in the data were used in the work. The novelty of the performed work lies in the study of oceanographic conditions of spring migration of anchovy to the Sea of Azov as factors determining the size of its spawning stock in this sea.

Result: intensive growth of the spawning stock of anchovy in the Sea of Azov was observed in 2008, 2010 and 2011. This was facilitated by: predominance of north-western geostrophic currents in the north-eastern part of the Black Sea in April 2008–2011, weakening of the Azov currents in the Kerch Strait in April 2007–2010 and predominance of the Black Sea currents in May 2004–2012, Decrease in the meridional gradient of water temperature in the Kerch Strait in April 2007–2010.

Practical significance: the possibility of using oceanographic information for April-May to predict the size of the spawning and commercial stock of anchovy in the Sea of Azov.

The aim of this study was to determine water quality and develop a predictive model using principal component analysis (PCA) based on physico-chemical characteristics of groundwater sources around a dumpsite. Twelve (12) water samples were collected from groundwater sources around the Solous dumpsite situated in Alimosho Local Government area of Lagos State, Nigeria. Some of the physico-chemical parameters determined in the samples include pH, nitrate content, total hardness, cadmium, iron, lead, manganese, and zinc contents. These were used to determine the water quality index and model using the PCA. The water analysis showed pH levels ranging from 6.15 to 8.55, nitrate concentrations between 1 and 40 mg/L, and total hardness from 17.8 to 720.0 ppm. The concentrations of metals detected included manganese (0.01–0.04 mg/L), zinc (0.05–0.13 mg/L), iron (1.40–12.30 mg/L), lead (0.50–1.20 mg/L), and cadmium (0.03–0.08 mg/L) across all samples. For each of the 12 water samples, the Water Quality Index (WQI) varied between 2636.08 and 3752.60. The PCA revealed that whereas pH (0.865), total hardness (0.741), nitrate (0.816), and manganese (0.770) contents were the significant variables affecting the quality of the water samples within the study region, zinc had the least overall influence on the quality of the various water samples. In conclusion, all of the water samples had a water quality index greater than 300, meaning they were unfit for household (or drinking) use. The pH, total hardness, nitrate and manganese were the four most important variables while zinc was the least variable that influenced the quality of the water samples in this study.
