Published: November 2023

Pulmonary tuberculosis disease in Indonesia is increasing every year. The percentage of people receiving tuberculosis treatment as of 1 November 2022 is still far below the goal set (90%) or 52%. The 2020-2024 national health development strategy and the national medium term development plan 2020-2024 call for eliminating tuberculosis in Indonesia by 2030. Many factors can affect the success of tuberculosis treatment, including patient factors, drug ingestion monitor factors, and drug factors. This study aimed to determine the factors that influence therapy compliance in tuberculosis patients at the PB Selayang II Public health center, Medan City. This research method is quantitative analytical with a cross-sectional research design. The research was conducted at the PB Selayang II Public health center, Medan City, which was carried out from May to June 2023. The population in the study was all 109 tuberculosis patients. The sampling technique was purposive sampling, so the sample for this study was 56 patients. Data collection uses questionnaires with interviews. Data analysis using bivariate analysis using the chi-square test. The results of this study show that internal factors, namely taking anti-tuberculosis drugs, are related to compliance with a sig value of 0.002 and external factors, namely the role of officers and motivation, are related to compliance with tuberculosis therapy at PB Selayang II Public health center with a sig value of 0.000. The conclusion from the results obtained that significantly influences compliance with tuberculosis therapy is external factors where there are 2 categories related to compliance, namely motivation and the role of officers.

Cross-cultural interpretations of Yanagi Soetsu’s philosophy
Authors: Akhmylovskaya Larisa Alekseevna
Published: November 2023

The aim of the research is to shed light on cross-cultural interpretations of mingei, a philosophy developed in the 1920s by the Japanese collector and art historian Yanagi Soetsu. This concept recognises aesthetic value in utilitarian objects and their unique harmony. The mingei movement emphasises anonymous, handmade production of functional objects in large quantities. The study comments on fragments from the exhibition catalog “MINGEI: The Beauty of Everyday Things” and provides examples of incorporating mingei objects into the cross-cultural process. The scientific novelty of the research lies in identifying conflicting viewpoints among researchers of the mingei movement regarding the relationship between mingei undo (the folk crafts movement) and the British Arts and Crafts movement. As a result, the research materials allowed the author to examine Yanagi Soetsu’s activities in the context of the cross-cultural interaction and the mutual influence of Japanese and European folk-art movements in the late 19th and the early 20th centuries.
Reflection of the peculiarities of the semantic structure of ancient colour names in the evolution of the semantics of the Common Slavic colour terms *bronъ and *polvъ

Published: November 2023

The aim of the research is to identify the peculiarities characterising the evolution of the semantics of the Common Slavic colour terms *bronъ and *polvъ, which reflect the specific features of the semantic structure of ancient colour names. The scientific novelty of the study lies in describing the specificity of the semantic structure of ancient colour terms through the history of not the main colour names, but rather the colour names that are “peripheral” from a modern perspective, namely, броный (derived from the Common Slavic *bronъ) and половый (derived from the Common Slavic *polvъ). The semantic features of the Common Slavic colour terms *bronъ and *polvъ, as well as their Indo-European proto-forms and Old Russian derivatives were identified through component analysis. As a result, it has been found that the evolution of the semantics of these Common Slavic colour terms is characterised by the absence of the initial semantic connection with the reference object, the presence of a semantic connection with light or its absence and the syncretism of the denoted colour tone. Thus, it has been revealed that the Common Slavic lexemes *bronъ and *polvъ were more likely to be names for colouration rather than colour itself. These characteristics reflect the specific features demonstrating differences in the perception of colour by ancient and modern linguistic consciousness that are common for the semantics of words developing colour meanings in the Russian language.

Published: November 2023

This research was motivated because the motivation of educators in MTsN 1 Payakumbuh City is not very good because there are still educators who cannot be disciplined, educators who are often late absent, this is seen from the recap of absences every month. Educators who want to go home fast, educators who are slow to collect devices, educators' motivation to teach is lacking and this relates to the leadership of the principal himself. The limitations of the problems of this research are (a) Leadership of the principal in MTsN 1 Payakumbuh City, (b) Motivation of educators in MTsN 1 Payakumbuh City, (c) The relationship between the leadership of the principal and the motivation of educators in MTsN 1 Payakumbuh City. This research aims to determine whether there is a positive and significant relationship between the principal's leadership and the work motivation of educators in MTsN 1 Payakumbuh City. The hypothesis proposed is that there is a positive and significant relationship between the principal's leadership and the work motivation of educators in MTsN 1 Payakumbuh City. In this study there are two variables, namely the independent variable (principal's leadership) and the dependent variable (educator's work motivation). This research is a field research using a quantitative approach. This research method uses the correlational method. The population in this study was 54 educators and the total sample of 54 educators was taken using the total sampling technique. The research instrument used 2 (two) questionnaires, namely questionnaires about the principal's leadership and educators' work motivation. Data was processed using the Statistical Product and Service Solution (SPSS) program version 20.00, and analyzed using the Karl Pearson Product Moment Correlation Coefficient formula. The results showed that from the results of Pearson Correlation at rxy = 0.627 greater than r table for significant 1% = 0.354 and 5% = 0.273, thus Ha was accepted and H0 was rejected, meaning that there was a positive and significant relationship between the principal's leadership and the motivation of educators in MTsN 1 Payakumbuh City. And from the results of Pearson Correlation on r count = 0.627 can see the level of relationship in the classification of correlation numbers, 0.627 is located between 0.60 to 0.799 with a strong correlation level. Thus, it can be seen that the level of correlation between the principal's leadership and the work motivation of educators in MTsN 1 Payakumbuh City as much as r2 = 36% while 60% is determined by other factors.

Site-Specific Profiling of N-Glycans in Drosophila melanogaster
Authors: Zhao Fei , Jia Chenyu , He Fangyu , Hu Meiting , Guo Xingyu , Zhang Jiaxin , Feng Xuesong
Published: November 2023

Background: Drosophila melanogaster is a well-studied and highly tractable genetic model system for deciphering the molecular mechanisms underlying various biological processes. Although being one of the most critical post-translational modifications of proteins, the understanding of glycosylation in Drosophila is still lagging behind compared with that of other model organisms. Methods: In this study, we systematically investigated the site-specific N-glycan profile of Drosophila melanogaster using intact glycopeptide analysis technique. This approach identified the glycans, proteins, and their glycosites in Drosophila, as well as information on site-specific glycosylation, which allowed us to know which glycans are attached to which glycosylation sites. Results: The results showed that the majority of N-glycans in Drosophila were high-mannose type (69.3%), consistent with reports in other insects. Meanwhile, fucosylated N-glycans were also highly abundant (22.7%), and the majority of them were mono-fucosylated. In addition, 24 different sialylated glycans attached with 16 glycoproteins were identified, and these proteins were mainly associated with developmental processes. Gene ontology analysis showed that N-glycosylated proteins in Drosophila were involved in multiple biological processes, such as axon guidance, N-linked glycosylation, cell migration, cell spreading, and tissue development. Interestingly, we found that seven glycosyltransferases and four glycosidases were N-glycosylated, which suggested that N-glycans may play a regulatory role in the synthesis and degradation of N-glycans and glycoproteins. Conclusions: To our knowledge, this work represents the first comprehensive analysis of site-specific N-glycosylation in Drosophila, thereby providing new perspectives for the understanding of biological functions of glycosylation in insects.

Published: November 2023

Background: Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the most common cause of visual disorders in the aged population and is characterized by the formation of retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) deposits and dysfunction/death of the RPE and photoreceptors. It is supposed that both oxidative stress and inflammation play a critical role in the pathogenesis of AMD. The development of therapeutic strategies against oxidative stress and inflammation in AMD is urgently needed. Rubus suavissimus S. Lee (RS), a medicinal plant growing in the southwest region of China, has been used as an herbal tea and medicine for various diseases. Methods: In this project, we evaluate the therapeutic potential of RS extract for AMD. We prepared RS extracts from dried leaves, which contained the main functional compounds. Results: RS extract significantly increased cell viability, upregulated the expression of antioxidant genes, lowered the generation of malondialdehyde and reactive oxygen species, and suppressed inflammation in H2O2-treated human RPE cells. In the in vivo study, treatment with RS extract attenuated body weight gain, lowered cholesterol and triglyceride levels in the liver and serum, increased antioxidant capacity, and alleviated inflammation in the retina and RPE/choroid of mice fed a high-fat diet. Conclusions: Our findings suggest that RS extract offers therapeutic potential for treating AMD patients.

Anchoring effect in business
Authors: Bahník Štěpán , Yoon Sangsuk
Published: November 2023

In many business and managerial decisions, accurate estimation of numeric attributes is crucial, but such estimates are often biased by a previously considered value—a cognitive bias known as the anchoring effect. This paper provides an overview of the current state of the literature on the anchoring effect, with a particular focus on its applications in business settings. First, we summarize different processes that may underlie the anchoring effect, which include conversational inferences, insufficient adjustment from the anchor value, selective accessibility of information compatible with an anchor, and distortion of a response scale. Second, we review the applications of anchoring across various business practices, such as predictions, valuations, negotiations, auctions, promotions, and job performance evaluations. We provide examples of potential sources of anchors in these domains and discuss limitations of the existing studies. Next, we describe the challenge of debiasing anchoring and introduce potential strategies for reducing the influence of the anchoring effect. Finally, we discuss topics that have been underexplored and suggest avenues for future research on the anchoring effect.

Archaeology, crafting maps and political change
Authors: Hacıgüzeller Piraye
Published: November 2023

In this chapter, I aim to situate maps and mappings (i.e. the practices involved in mapmaking and map using) within the field of archaeology. I characterise archaeological mapping as a craft that necessitates a distinct set of skills. Like all crafts, it requires attentiveness, improvisation and an openness to affect. I present the impact that the digital transition has had on archaeological mappings, particularly since the 1990s. Furthermore, I elucidate how, from the 2000s onwards, mappings began to serve as a focal practice for advocating, demanding and effecting political change in archaeology—a process I name mapping archaeology for change. Despite inherent challenges, archaeological mapping can prove to be a powerful ally for nondominant individuals and communities striving to make their voices heard. Actors with the power to do so should push to overcome these challenges and facilitate the formation of mapping collaborations in archaeology capable of effecting political change now, without delay.

The growing interest in harnessing natural environments to enhance mental health, including cognitive functioning and mood, has yielded encouraging results in initial studies. Given that images of nature have demonstrated similar benefits, they are frequently employed as proxies for real-world environments. To ensure precision and control, researchers often manipulate images of natural environments. The effectiveness of this approach relies on standardization of imagery and therefore inconsistency in methods and stimuli has limited the synthesis of research findings in the area. Responding to these limitations, the current paper introduces the Salford Nature Environments Database (SNED), a standardized database of natural images created to support ongoing research into the benefits of nature exposure. The SNED currently exists as the most comprehensive nature image database available, comprising 500 high-quality, standardized photographs capturing a variety of possible natural environments across the seasons. It also includes normative scores for user-rated (801 participants) characteristics of fascination, refuge and prospect, compatibility, preference, valence, arousal and approach-avoidance, as well as data on physical properties of the images, specifically luminance, contrast, entropy, CIELAB color space parameter values, and fractal dimensions. All image ratings and content detail, along with participant details, are available open access online. Researchers are encouraged to use this open access database in accordance with the specific aims and design of their study. The SNED represents a valuable resource for continued research in areas such as nature-based therapy, social prescribing and experimental approaches investigating underlying mechanisms that help explain how natural environments improve mental health and wellbeing.
How Can Deep Neural Networks Inform Theory in Psychological Science?
Authors: McGrath Sam , Russin Jacob , Pavlick Ellie , Feiman Roman
Published: November 2023

Over the last decade, deep neural networks (DNNs) have transformed the state of the art in artificial intelligence. In domains like language production and reasoning, long considered uniquely human abilities, models like GPT-4 have proven capable of strikingly human-like performance. However, in contrast to classical symbolic models, neural networks can be inscrutable even to their designers, making it unclear what significance, if any, they have for theories of human cognition. Two extreme reactions are common. Neural network enthusiasts argue that, because the inner workings of DNNs do not seem to resemble any of the traditional constructs of psychological or linguistic theory, their success renders these theories obsolete and motivates a radical paradigm shift. Neural network skeptics instead take this inability to interpret DNNs in psychological terms to mean that their success is irrelevant to psychological science. In this paper, we review recent work that suggests that the internal mechanisms of DNNs can, in fact, be interpreted in the functional terms characteristic of psychological explanations. We argue that this undermines the shared assumption of both extremes and opens the door for DNNs to inform theories of cognition and its development.

Published: November 2023

Multimedia learning materials incorporate both textual information and pictorial information,and previous research has largely focused on how multimedia materials influence theeffectiveness of initial instruction. However, feedback is a critical component of learning, and thecurrent experiment tests whether multimedia materials within the feedback message can benefitstudent learning. We randomly assigned undergraduate students (N = 129) to one of fourconditions using a 2 (Initial Instruction: text-only vs multimedia) x 2 (Feedback: text-only vsmultimedia) design and tested their learning of conditional probability problems. Results from animmediate posttest suggested that multimedia feedback was more beneficial than text-onlyfeedback, but there was no evidence that the modality of the initial instruction influencedlearning in this context. By contrast, exploratory analyses revealed that students perceived theproblems to be less difficult and they spontaneously generated more diagrams during theirproblem solutions when they were assigned to multimedia instruction relative to text-onlyinstruction. We discuss the implications of these results for theory and practice.Key words: multimedia learning, feedback, problem solving, meta-cognition,instructional diagrams

Published: November 2023

Microfinance refers to the provision of financial services to low-income individuals and businesses, serving as a financial tool to reduce poverty and provide financial support to low-income groups. This study aims to determine the factors influencing customers' intentions towards microfinance in Kathmandu Valley. The study employs an explanatory research design in conjunction with the Theory of Planned Behavior framework. Primary data from 303 respondents were collected using the KOBO toolbox. Purposive sampling, a non-probability sampling technique, was employed for data collection. Descriptive and inferential data analysis was carried out using MS-Excel and SMART PLS 4.0. The majority of respondents consisted of married middle-aged women actively engaged in their own business ventures. Common challenges encountered by microfinance customers included high-interest rates, insufficient security, and limited financial knowledge. The principal solutions identified included the establishment of robust microfinance policies, the integration of innovation and new technologies, the provision of financial training, and the facilitation of enhanced loan repayment strategies. The study revealed that, among the three primary factors examined, both subjective norms and perceived behavioral control had a significant impact on customers' intentions to adopt microfinance. On the other hand, attitude was found to have an insignificant impact on customers' intentions to embrace microfinance. The findings of this study suggest that microfinance can be a valuable tool for poverty reduction and financial inclusion. However, it is important to address the challenges that microfinance customers face in order to maximize its potential impact. The solutions identified in this study can help make microfinance more accessible and affordable for low-income individuals and businesses.

Ideological Resistance in Adrienne Rich’s “Diving into the Wreck”
Authors: Pokharel Bishnu Prasad
Published: November 2023

Adrienne Rich’s poem “Diving into the Wreck” takes an issue with woman identity. Questioning the ideologically preoccupied masculine stereotyping of woman, Rich envisions a world of independence and harmony in which male-female dichotomy ceases to exist. The poem symbolically states three distinct phases of journey to express protest and psychological victory over gender disparity in the male-controlled society. It raises the idea that the false stereotypical and socio-political framing about gender and its roles are inimical to maintaining equality in society. The main objective of the study is to infer how the patriarchal society generated a conventional system to keep women out of mainstream and also the way typical females planned to gain control of the vagaries of and ocentric culture. I used Tyson’s resistance theory as the main theoretical tool to analyze and interpret the poem. This theoretical stratagem preserves the literature related to the struggle for freedom and impartiality. This article argues that the poem challenges the institutional apparatuses that naturalize women's role and identity and advocates to establish gender impartiality in the society. I contend that this poem is the bedrock for the establishment of independence. The overall inference of the paper is that the protracted prejudice that leads to life-threatening exploitation creates revolt through literature and leads to plausible upheaval in society. Thus, it is discernible that literature, far from being the innocent figment of imagination, represents a subtle voice of resistance against exploitation and prejudice.

The availability of continuous hydrological records, both spatially and temporally, is often limited. This research employed a fully distributed Spatial Process in HYdrology (SPHY) model within the Tamakoshi River Basin to address this gap. The SPHY model was calibrated from 2004 to 2008 with NSE 0.62 at Busti station of Tamakoshi [2933.29 km2] and validated from 2004 to 2008 with NSE 0.76 at Rasnalu station of Khimti [322.58 km2]. Conversely, SPHY model was calibrated from 2004 to 2008 with NSE 0.79 at Rasnalu station of Khimti and validated from 2004 to 2008 with NSE 0.61 at Busti station of Tamakoshi. The observed annual average discharge at Busti station was 1632 m3 /s and Rasnalu station was 261 m3 /s during the simulation period. The annual average discharges at Benighat [862.09 km2 downstream] transferred from Busti and Rasnalu models are 1963.1 m3 /s and 1961.32 m3 /s, respectively. Daily streamflow generated at Benighat from Busti and Rasnalu stations, closely aligns and perfectly matches and highly correlates, with the coefficient of determination 0.99. SPHY model is a good technique for prediction of flows in ungauged basins of Himalayan region. The SPHY model emerges as a robust technique for predicting discharge within the Himalayan River basin. This research holds the potential to serve as a valuable reference for generating streamflow data at ungauged locations, that are vital for planning, management and development of water resource projects.

DOMINASI MURTAHIN TERHADAP RAHIN PADA PRAKTIK GADAI SAWAH DI DESA ANGOHU KECAMATAN TONGAUNA KABUPATEN KONAWE

Artikel ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui praktik dominasi murtahin terhadap rahin pada praktik gadai sawah di Desa Anggohu Kecamatan Tongauna Kabupaten Konawe. Kajian ini memfokuskan pada bentuk dan motif dominasi murtahin terhadap rahin pada praktik gadai sawah di Desa Anggohu Kecamatan Tongauna Kabupaten Konawe. Serta bagaimana tinjauan hukum Islam terhadap praktik dominasi murtahin kepada rahin dalam praktik gadai sawah di Desa Anggohu Kecamatan Tongauna Kabupaten Konawe. Lahan atau persawahan di masyarakat tidak hanya berfungsi sebagai aset produktif, tetapi juga berfungsi sebagai komoditas yang dapat ditransaksikan seperti jual beli, sewa, pinjam meminjam, sesuai dengan kebutuhan masyarakat yang seringkali menimbulkan berbagai permasalahan dalam praktiknya. Pelaksanaan praktik gadai sawah yang dilaksanakan di Desa Anggohu Kecamatan Tongauna Kabupaten Konawe tersebut belum memenuhi rukun dan syarat akad gadai secara sempurna, dan belum mencapai rukun dan syarat keabsahan akad yang dijelaskan dalam hukum Islam. Dalam praktik gadai sawah tersebut ditemukan bentuk eksploitasi yang dijelmakan dalam bentuk dominasi atau pengusaan secara fisik dan non fisik dari pihak yang memilki kekuasaan dalam modal (kapital), dengan tujuan pemanfaatan objek gadai oleh murtahin. Dalam pelaksanaannya mensyaratkan adanya imbalan jasa maupun bentuk-bentuk yang dapat menimbulkan kerugian salah satu pihak. Setelah dikajian dan analisis melalui hukum bisnis Islam hal tersebut tidak diperbolehkan meskipun hasil yang diperoleh hanya sedikit saja, karena dalam pengambilanya bermaksud untuk menarik manfaat yang dapat menguntungkan yang berlipat ganda serta merugikan sebelah pihak. Jumhur ulama’ memperbolehkan mengambil manfaatnya, akan tetapi hanya sekedar pengganti dari biaya pemeliharaan dan penyimpanan, karena apabila kegiatan pinjam-meminjam mensyaratkan adanya pengambilan manfaat dapat dikategorikan sebagai riba.

Artikel ini membahas tentang derep (sistem upah) panen padi pada masyarakat Desa Wundumbolo Kecamatan Tinanggea Kabupaten Konawe Selatan ditinjau Hukum Islam. Adapun rumusan masalah dalam kajian ini yaitu bagaimana praktek derep (sistem upah) panen padi yang dilakukan masyarakat Desa Wundumbolo Kecamatan Tinanggea Kabupaten Konawe Selatan serta bagaimana tinjauan hukum Islam mengenai praktek derep tersebut yang bertujuan untuk mengetahui proses praktek derep (sistem upah) panen padi pada masyarakat Desa Wundumbolo Kecamatan Tinanggea Kabupaten Konawe Selatan dan untuk mengetahui tinjauan hukum Islam terhadap praktek derep (sistem upah) panen padi di Desa Wundumbolo Kecamatan Tinanggea Kabupaten Konawe Selatan. Praktek akad derep (sistem upah) panen padi di Desa Wundumbolo Kecamatan Tinanggea Kabupaten Konawe Selatan merupakan salah satu bentuk akad ijarah antara pemilik sawah dengan buruh yang menjadi kebiasaan tiap kali musim panen padi. Proses derep dimulai dari panggilan pihak I kepada pihak II, ngeret, ngedos, pengayaan, mengemas padi dalam karung, penjumlahan hasil padi, pembagian upah, dan pengangkutan. Pegupahannya bukan berbentuk uang tetapi gabah (padi). Bagian upah yang akan diberikan yaitu 1:8. Praktek derep di Desa Wundumbolo tersebut sebagian belum sesuai dengan Hukum Islam karena ada beberapa buruh yang merasa kurang adil dengan pembagian upah yang diberikan oleh pemilik sawah. Hal tersebut menunjukan kurangnya kerelaan buruh dalam melakukan derep. Mereka melakukan derep tersebut karena tidak ada pekerjaan lain yang dapat menunjang perekonomian mereka. Sehingga pemilik sawah perlu memperhatikan asas keadilan dalam memberikan upah yang layak kepada buruhnya. Tetapi di sisi lain, dengan adanya derep ini timbullah kesejahteraan perekonomian masyarakat yang dapat menunjang kebutuhan masyarakat Desa Wundumbolo Kecamatan Tinanggea Kabupaten Konawe Selatan serta hubungan silaturahim mereka tetap terjaga dengan baik.
