SEDIMENT TRAPPING AND TRACE METAL ENRICHMENT IN FLUVIAL SCULPTED FORMS OF A BEDROCK RIVER (MIÑO RIVER, OURENSE, NW IBERIAN PENINSULA)
Authors: Álvarez-Vázquez Miguel , Bróż Andrian
Published: April 2024

This study focuses on sediment composition and trace metal accumulation in the Miño/Minho River, with an emphasis on bedrock rivers. The research employs robust non-parametric statistics to analyze sediment composition in three distinct deposition microenvironments: (i) surface sediments trapped in rock cavities, (ii) permanent sediment trapped in a pothole, and (iii) untrapped river sediment. Robust regression is used for reference level estimation. Enrichment assessment through local enrichment factors reveals Cu and Pb accumulation in rock cavities, potentially linked to post-depositional processes influenced by seasonal water dynamics. The study highlights the effectiveness of robust statistics for sediment data analysis and identifies rock cavities as significant traps for trace elements, possibly of anthropogenic origin, in urban river settings. However, the study acknowledges the necessity of further research to comprehensively understand the intricate processes shaping sediment composition in bedrock rivers, considering the multifaceted physical, chemical, and biological factors at play.

Background: Honey, a naturally sweet food product, exhibits several health beneficial effects. The quality of honey differs by its microbiological, physicochemical, and antioxidant properties, which can significantly vary from brand to brand and country to country. Objectives: This study aimed to assess the physicochemical properties and antioxidant activity of honey brands distributed in Tehran City, Iran, and compare these parameters with national and international standards. Methods: Five brands (Shakelli, Khansar, Golagin, Shafi, and Kral) of honey in Tehran were selected, and 5 samples of each brand were collected from supermarkets and analyzed by standard methods for physicochemical properties and antioxidant activity. The collected data were analyzed using SPSS software, version 20. Results: The results depicted significant differences among studied honey brands in all physicochemical properties (except for ash, total reducing sugars, and sucrose content) and antioxidant activity (P<0.05). The moisture, ash, pH, free acidity, total reducing sugars, sucrose, diastase, and 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) contents of honey brands ranged within 16.30%-15.34%, 0.24%-0.40%, 4.27-4.39 units, 9.15-10.68 meq/kg, 77.84%-79.74%, 3.66%-4.57%, 2.28-3.28 DN (diastase number), and 6.67-11.84 mg/kg, respectively. Thus, the physicochemical properties of studied honey brands, except for diastase activity, were within national and international legal ranges. Moreover, total phenolic contents (TPC) and radical scavenging activity (RSA) of 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) of honey brands ranged within 28.72-39.36 mg GAE/100 g and 63.83%-73.91%, respectively. In addition, a highly significant positive correlation was observed between TPC and RSA of DPPH of honey samples (r=0.798, P<0.01). Conclusion: The studied honey brands were of good quality and met national and international standards.

Published: April 2024

Background: Aflatoxins are harmful mycotoxins that can contaminate animal and human food products. To prevent toxigenic fungi growth and aflatoxin production, researchers have long investigated plant compounds as potential inhibitory agents. Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the in vitro effect of berberine sulfate and berberine chloride on the growth and aflatoxin production of Aspergillus flavus and Aspergillus parasiticus. Methods: The antifungal activity of berberine salts was determined according to the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) document M38-A3. The aflatoxin levels were measured using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method. Results: The berberine sulfate and berberine chloride showed inhibitory effects against both Aspergillus species, with minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) ranging from 125 to 500 µg/mL. Berberine sulfate at 2000 μg/mL and berberine chloride at 1000 μg/mL completely inhibited the mycelial growth of A. flavus, while berberine chloride at 1000 μg/mL also completely inhibited the mycelial growth of A. parasiticus. Berberine sulfate at 2000 µg/mL reduced the mycelial growth of A. parasiticus by 96.7%. Conclusion: Berberine salts significantly decreased the total aflatoxin production of Aspergillus species at MIC/2 and MIC/4 concentrations (P˂0.05). The results suggest that berberine salts could be used as potential antifungal and anti-aflatoxigenic agents against toxigenic Aspergillus isolates.
Production of Melanin from Bacillus Species Isolated from Rhizosphere Soil
Authors: Barate D. L.  , Dange S. C.
Published: April 2024

Melanin is an UV protective pigment which has shown its presence all across the living organisms except for viruses, for various functions such as UV-protection, Anti-microbial activity, free radical scavenging activity etc. The pigment is produced in specialized cells called the Melanocytes by the process of Melanogenesis in humans, while it is produced in cytoplasm in bacteria and other prokaryotes. The main enzyme that is responsible for catalyzing the production of melanin from L-tyrosine is ‘Tyrosinase’. It is this enzyme which enables the bacteria to convert amino acid (L-tyrosine) into melanin. The melanin is a polymer which is made from the L-DOPA, DHI, and DHICA monomers. The current study deals with the production and extraction of melanin from Bacillus species isolated from rhizosphere soil of Neelgiri tree and Sagwan tree. The study further deals with melanin and its characterization using UV- visible spectroscopy, FT-IR spectroscopy and its solubility test in different solvents. Undertaking the industrial applications of bacterial melanin, the current study also deals with the UV-protection activity of the extracted melanin, and the antibacterial activity of the melanin extracted from the bacterial isolated.
Changes in the policy of the MIA of the USR SSR regarding the Ukrainian national liberation movement in march-june 1953
Authors: Grechenko V. A.
Published: April 2024

The article examines the evolution of the policy of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine headed by P. Ya. Meshyk regarding the Ukrainian national liberation movement in March-June 1953. This historical period was chosen by the author because after the death of the long-term leader of the USSR, Y. Stalin, certain changes in the international and domestic policy of the state began to take place, known in historical literature as the “Beria thaw”. During this period, the struggle against the OUN–UPA took on slightly different forms and methods. She became less cruel and brutal, less senseless, although this did not change her essence. As before, the goal of this struggle remained the elimination of the anti-Soviet underground, but it began to be done in a more sophisticated way. In the very first directive of the new minister, it was about canceling some Chekist-military operations, that is, about reducing their number and streamlining their organization. Some measures were taken regarding the new Ukrainianization of higher education institutions in Lviv. As of the beginning of 1953, only 114 of the 527 subjects taught at the Lviv Higher Secondary School were taught in Ukrainian. The situation was the same with the national composition of teachers at educational institutions. In the management of 12 higher educational institutions of Lviv, there was not a single director from among the local intelligentsia. Out of 45 deans of faculties, one is local, out of 286 heads of departments, 38 are local. Out of a total of 1,721 professors and teachers of 12 universities, only 327 were from the local intelligentsia. As a result of the armed confrontation with the OUN in the western regions of Ukraine in the period from 1944 to 1953, 153,259 people were killed, 103,003 people were arrested, 65,895 families, a total of 203,737 people, were evicted from the western regions of the Ukrainian SSR as “bandit aids”. P. Meshik managed to stay in the position of Minister of Internal Affairs for only three months, and many of his plans, which were, to a certain extent, reformist in nature, were not destined to be implemented.

Sixty years since Silent Spring: a map of meta-analyses on organochlorine pesticides reveals urgent needs for improving methodological quality.
Authors: Morrison Kyle , Yang Yefeng , Ricolfi Lorenzo , Williams Coralie , Lagisz Malgorzata , Nakagawa Shinichi
Published: April 2024

Rachel Carson’s Silent Spring inspired a wave of research on the impacts of organochlorine pesticides, followed by a subsequent wave of meta-analyses. These meta-analyses are now routinely used to inform policy decisions. However, the methodological quality of meta-analyses on organochlorine pesticides remains largely unknown. Here, our study systematically maps and evaluates the methodological quality of 105 meta-analyses synthesizing 3,911 primary studies. Concerningly, we find that 83.4% of the meta-analyses exhibit low methodological quality. Importantly, such meta-analyses are commonly cited in policy documents, suggesting poor quality meta-analyses are misinforming policies. We also found a paucity of meta-analyses on wildlife despite ample primary evidence. Furthermore, our bibliometric analysis shows a limited number of meta-analyses originating from the developing countries, where organochlorines are still used to combat vectors of fatal diseases. Finally, we quantified the positive impact of using reporting guidelines and we provide recommendations for readily implementable methodological improvements.

Authors: Gutsan Tetiana , Melnykova Olha
Published: April 2024

The article characterizes the essence and role of the investment attractiveness of Ukraine's economy in wartime conditions, determines the factors determining the country's investment attractiveness and factors that affect it during martial law, and proves the need to develop strategies for attracting investments in conditions of instability. The dynamics of investment flows in Ukraine during the last twenty years were considered and the negative impact of the conflict in the east of the country on investment activity was indicated, the main investor countries and sectors where foreign investments were directed were identified. The components of Ukraine's investment attractiveness index were analyzed and its negative dynamics were noted. The main problems of the investment attractiveness of Ukraine's economy are singled out, in particular, military actions on the territory of Ukraine, significant damage to the energy system, infrastructure, and production capacities of enterprises; imprudence of investment cooperation; instability and opacity of state legislation; high level of corruption; imperfection of tax policy; weak judicial system; the impossibility of forecasting the development of the national economy even in the medium term. The need for active cooperation with the media and stakeholders, as well as the use of communication capabilities of leaders and influential personalities at the international level to attract and interest investors, is indicated. Attention was focused on the investment opportunities of the regions and the industries with the greatest investment potential were identified. Vectors of increasing the investment potential of Ukraine in the post-war period are proposed, such as supporting industries that will contribute to the restoration of destroyed production capacities (construction, energy, agro-processing, logistics, IT, etc.); active development of the military and defense industry; introduction of benefits for the affected business; introduction of state insurance of foreign investments to reduce the risk for foreign partners; increasing informational support for investors; reforming the judicial system; development of industrial parks; diversification of mechanisms for attracting investment funds to the country, in particular support by business angels, attracting venture and strategic investors, crowdfunding, etc.

Published: April 2024

The article analyzes existing scientific approaches in the study of external and internal factors influencing the innovative development of socio-economic systems in the modern conditions of their functioning was carried out. Having determined the endogenous and exogenous factors, it is possible to create an appropriate economic-mathematical model of the behavior of the socio-economic system or to form an effective strategy for the development of innovative and active socio-economic systems. The essential characteristics of development strategies of innovation-oriented systems are considered, and the principles of their formation, threats to their functioning, and factors of endogenous and exogenous influence on the development of socio-economic systems are determined. Socio-economic systems are exposed to the systemic and complex influence of factors that require the formation of unified approaches in the direction of the formation of a unified system of socio-economic development at all levels and the unity of components based on innovative strategies, as one of the important components of ensuring their further competitiveness. One of the existing scientific approaches in the study of the influence of factors on the innovative development of socio-economic systems is the synergistic approach, which consists of the combination of various factors and the search for alternative self-organization of the processes taking place. Internal factors that influence the formation of an innovative development strategy include the availability of financial potential, development of production and product diversification, availability of effective technologies, development of the domestic market, availability of personnel potential, and introduction of the latest technologies. External influencing factors include the development of marketing and logistics support, the dynamism of foreign markets, the communicativeness of analytical structures, the nature of external relationships, etc. In addition to the considered two-factor model of innovative development, which reflects the relationship between the level of scientific and technical potential and the volume of public needs, at the macroeconomic level of socio-economic relations, there is a whole list of factors at the level of enterprises and business structures.

Published: April 2024

Sosyal siyaset dar anlamıyla emek-sermaye çatışmasını, geniş anlamıyla bütün sosyal sınıf ve grupların birbiriyle mücadelesini çözümlemeye çalışan bir disiplin olarak tanımlanmaktadır. İster dar ister geniş anlamıyla ele alınsın sosyal siyasetin anlaşılabilmesi için bu disipline katkıda bulunmuş akademisyenlerin çalışmalarının değerlendirilmesi önem arz eden bir husustur. Buna rağmen alan yazında sosyal siyaset disiplinine hayati katkıları bulunan akademisyenlerin çalışmalarının yeterince konu edinilmediği ortaya koyulmaktadır. Bu çalışma Türkiye’de çalışma ekonomisi kürsüsünün en etkili aktörlerinden biri olan Sabahattin Zaim’in sosyal siyaset eksenli görüşlerini bütüncül bir bakış açısıyla değerlendirmek amacıyla yürütülmüştür. Bu kapsamda Zaim’in tez, makale ve kitaplarındaki fikirleri, kavramlaştırmaları, tespit ve önerileri, gelir dağılımı ve refah artışı, ücret siyaseti, sendikalar, zekât ve vakıf müessesi gibi konular temelinde incelenmiştir. Sonuç olarak sosyal siyasetin, tamamen yeni bir bakış açısıyla geliştirilmesi yönündeki ihtiyaca Zaim’in fikirlerinin cevap verdiği tespit edilmiştir. Zaim’in sosyal siyaset disiplini ile ilgili çalışmalarında kendi kültür ve inancını referans alarak bir bakış açısı geliştirdiği görülmektedir. Sosyal siyaset tedbirlerinin hak temelinden yardım severlik ve merhamet temeline kaydığı günümüzde zekâtı, sosyal siyaset tedbirlerinin çıkış noktası ve fakirin zengindeki hakkı olarak vurgulayan Zaim’in, tecrübe ve değerler ışığında hâkim sosyal politikalara karşı farklı bir yol geliştirdiği anlaşılmaktadır. Bundan sonra yapılacak çalışmalarda Zaim’in görüşleri ile disiplinin diğer önde gelen aktörlerinin gelir, refah, ücret ve sendikalar mevzuları hakkındaki görüşlerinin karşılaştırılması yararlı olacaktır.
A Perspective on the Intersection of Social Psychology and Linguistics
Authors: Güçlü Ruhan
Published: April 2024

Social psychology and linguistics are two scientific disciplines that deal with human as their principle subject matter. Focusing on where these disciplines meet and how they feed each other, this paper aims to investigate the interdisciplinary contribution of social psychology and linguistics to each other. To achieve this, the contrastive analysis (CA) is applied which is composed of three steps as (1) description; (2) juxtaposition; (3) comparison (Krzeszowski, 1990). This comparative revision reveals that social psychology applies and investigates many fundamental areas in linguistics and particularly benefits from the language as data collection tool and method in the investigation to understand human behavior. Specifically, social psychology discusses the language with its communication aspect to examine and to analyze the human behavior. On the other hand, linguistics benefits from social psychology as it provides insights into the social and behavioral factors. There are some research areas and theories that these disciplines contribute to each other such as communication accommodation theory, speech act theory, expectancy theory, prejudice, politeness, patronizing speech, gender. Such a review is expected to benefit researchers by encouraging a wider view of intersection of these two disciplines and interdisciplinary critical thinking.

Tüketicilerin, daha önce satın almayı planlamadığı bir ürünle karşılaştığında onu aniden satın alması ile sonuçlanan eylem impulsif satın alımdır. Spontane gerçekleşen bu satın alma eyleminde bireylerin karar vermelerinde etkisi olan faktörlerin belirlenmesi tüketici davranışlarının ortaya konması açısından önemlidir. Bu çalışma ile tüketicilerin impulsif satın alma davranışlarının ölçülebileceği geçerli ve güvenilir bir ölçek geliştirilmesi amaçlanmıştır. Bu bağlamda ilgili literatür incelenmiş ve 46 maddelik bir madde havuzu oluşturulmuştur. Madde havuzunda yer alan 7 maddenin uzman değerlendirmeleri sonucunda çalışmadan çıkarılması uygun bulunmuş ve 39 maddelik taslak ölçek elde edilmiştir. Taslak ölçek, çalışmanın çeşitli safhalarında olmak üzere, Sivas ilindeki tüketicilerden toplam 766’sına uygulanmıştır. Çalışmada açıklayıcı faktör analizi, doğrulayıcı faktör analizi, test-tekrar-test ve iç tutarlılık analizi yöntemlerinden faydalanılmıştır. Açıklayıcı faktör analizi sonrası taslak ölçek, 5 faktör ve 25 maddeden oluşan bir yapıya ulaşmıştır. Doğrulayıcı faktör analizi ile açıklayıcı faktör analizi sonrası elde edilen ölçme yapısının geçerliği teyit edilmiştir. Ölçeğin ölçme sonuçlarının zamanla farklılaşmadığı test-tekrar-test yöntemi ile belirlenmiştir. Ölçekte yer alan her bir faktör ve ölçeğin tamamı için hesaplanan Cronbach Alpha katsayı değerleri, ölçeğin “yüksek güvenilirlikte” olduğunu göstermiştir. Araştırma sonucunda, geliştirilen “İmpulsif Satın Alma Ölçeği"nin güvenilir ve geçerli bir ölçek olduğu saptanmıştır.
Aytmatov’un Eserlerinde Sovyet Eğitim Sisteminin Üç Hâli: Aydınlanma, İşlevsizleşme ve Mankurtlaştırma
Authors: Özyurt Cevat
Published: April 2024

Cengiz Aytmatov, eserlerinde yaşadığı toplumu ve dünyayı bütüncül olarak yansıtan, önemli toplumsal sorunlar ve imkânlar üzerinde farkındalık oluşturan edebiyatçılardandır. Sovyet döneminde aile, din, ekonomik ilişkiler, kültürel kimlik, insan-doğa ilişkisi gibi toplumsal alanlarda gördüğü imkânları ve sorunları insan unsuruyla ilişkilendirerek, dikkatleri mevcut kurumsal eğitim sisteminin durumu ve hedeflerine çeker. Bu makalede Aytmatov’un eserlerinde Sovyet Dönemi eğitim sisteminin yansımaları bütüncül olarak analiz edilecektir. O, İlk Öğretmenim hikâyesinde görüldüğü gibi, bir dönem Sovyet ideolojisi ve eğitim sistemini aydınlanmacı bağlama yerleştirip desteklemiştir. Beyaz Gemi romanında ise Sovyet eğitim sistemini bir boş gösteren olarak sunar; okul, romanın önemli konularından biri olmasına rağmen, okuyucu burada nasıl bir eğitim verildiğini bilemez. Gün Olur Asra Bedel ve Cengiz Han’a Küsen Bulut romanlarında, mankurtlaşma kavramı geliştirilerek, eğitim sisteminin ahlâkî ve kültürel değerler alanında yaptığı yıkıma odaklanılmıştır. Bu tespitler çerçevesinde Aytmatov’un Sovyet eğitim sistemine bakışını pozitif, nötr ve negatif yönelimlerle veya aydınlanma, işlevsizleşme, mankurtlaşma kavramlarıyla açıklanan üç döneme ayırmak mümkündür.

Abstract: When working on a project that carries significant risk, the project owner asks the contractor for a letter of guarantee as a form of seriousness in carrying out the work for a certain time. One of the guarantor companies in the Bangka Belitung Islands Province is PT. Jamkrida Bangka which issues a surety bond certificate as an additional agreement to the main agreement between the project owner and the contractor. The system for submitting surety bond guarantee certificates at PT Jamkrida Bangka is still done manually starting from applying, completing the supporting document requirements, checking the suitability of the applicant's supporting documents, paying the guarantee fee, and printing the surety bond certificate as proof of guarantee. The system currently running will be developed into a web-based system to increase the speed of the administrative service process when applicants submit applications for surety bonds. The web-based system was developed using the Object-Oriented Analysis and Design method and Unified Modeling Language (UML) as a tool to develop in line with user needs. The system design can also provide easy access for applicants who are far from PT offices. Jamkrida in Pangkalpinang. Keywords: guarantee certificate; surety bonds; web-based systems;  Abstrak: Pada pengerjaan proyek yang beresiko cukup besar, maka pihak pemilik proyek meminta surat jaminan kepada pihak kontraktor sebagai bentuk kesungguhan melaksanakan pekerjaannya selama waktu tertentu.

Abstract: Toko Ratna Jaya is a business in the fashion sector that sells women's robes and is experiencing instability in its sales because Toko Ratna Jaya is unable to predict their sales for the following month. Ratna Jaya Shop currently carries out forecasting only by relying on the owner's predictions. However, this approach is less efficient and can lead to losses or increased stock costs if forecasting is inaccurate. To increase the accuracy of the estimates, the use of the Single Exponential Smoothing Method is proposed. This method smooths past values with exponential weights, placing greater emphasis on recent data. Use of data from the last 1 (one) year as reference data for recording the past for forecasting experiments for the next 1 (one) month. Experiments using different Alphas test accuracy in actual situations. The results of the experiment with an alpha of 0.2 are almost the same as the actual value in predicting the situation one month into the future with the lowest error, namely MAPE 12.05% and forecasting sales of gamis of 1,476 pcs.Keywords: forecasting; gamis; sales; single exponential smoothing (SES); toko ratna jaya.  Abstrak: Toko Ratna Jaya adalah usaha di bidang fashion yang menjual baju gamis wanita dan sedang mengalami ketidakstabilan dalam penjualannya dikarenakan Toko Ratna Jaya tidak mampu meramalkan penjualan mereka untuk bulan berikutnya. Toko Ratna Jaya saat ini melakukan peramalan hanya dengan mengandalkan paraduga pemiliknya. Namun, pendekatan ini kurang efisien dan dapat menyebabkan kerugian atau peningkatan biaya stok jika peramalan tidak akurat.  Untuk meningkatkan ketepatan perkiraan, penggunaan Metode Single Exponential Smoothing diusulkan. Metode ini menghaluskan nilai masa lalu dengan bobot eksponensial, memberikan penekanan lebih besar pada data terbaru. Penggunaan data 1 (satu) tahun terakhir sebagai data acuan pencatatan masa lalu untuk percobaan peramalan untuk 1 (satu) bulan kedepan. Eksperimen menggunakan Alpha yang berbeda menguji akurasi dalam situasi aktual. Hasil dari eksperimen dengan alpha 0,2 hampir sama dengan nilai aktual dalam meramalkan keadaan satu bulan ke depan dengan error yang paling rendah yaitu MAPE 12,05% dan peramalan penjualan gamis sebanyak 1.476 pcs.Kata kunci: gamis; penjualan; peramalan; single exponential smoothing (ses); toko ratna jaya.

Setiap lembaga pendidikan baik formal maupun nonformal tentunya mempunyai tujuan pendidikan, salah satu tujuan pendidikan adalah mengantarkan peserta didiknya menjadi manusia yang mampu mengembangkan kompetensi dirinya sehingga mampu menjadi individu yang memiliki keterampilan, keterampilan, daya saing dan berguna bagi diri sendiri, orang lain, agama, bangsa dan negara. Tak terkecuali pesantren sebagai salah satu lembaga pendidikan Islam yang membekali santrinya dengan berbagai ilmu dan keterampilan di samping membekali santrinya dengan ilmu agama yang menjadi landasan utamanya. Karya ilmiah ini merupakan hasil penelitian yang dilakukan penulis di Pondok Pesantren Modern Darunna’im Rangkasbitung Lebak-Banten. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk memotret, memahami dan menganalisis bentuk bimbingan dan konseling yang diberikan pesantren kepada santrinya khususnya santri baru pada tahun pertama kehidupan di pesantren. Pembinaan khusus yang khusus berkaitan dengan proses adaptasi santri terhadap budaya pesantren yang meliputi kegiatan 24 jam, bahasa, peraturan, lingkungan dan sosial serta bimbingan akademik. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian kualitatif dengan menggunakan metode penelitian lapangan. Dari penelitian yang dilakukan diketahui bahwa praktik bimbingan dan konseling yang dilaksanakan di Pondok Pesantren Modern Darunna’im Rangkasbitung Lebak-Banten dapat dikatakan cukup baik dan berjalan aktif. Hal ini terlihat dari proses pelaksanaan Bimbingan dan Konseling yang dilakukan secara berkala oleh penanggung jawab beberapa siswa yang dipandang perlu dan harus mendapat layanan Bimbingan dan Konseling. Di sisi lain, tentunya penulis juga dapat menarik kesimpulan bahwa semakin banyaknya layanan Bimbingan dan Konseling yang dilaksanakan di pondok pesantren, menunjukkan betapa sering dan banyaknya permasalahan kehidupan santri di pondok pesantren. Hal ini dapat dikatakan wajar mengingat tidak hanya ada satu atau dua santri yang tinggal di pesantren, melainkan banyak dengan latar belakang kehidupan, keluarga, suku, dan lingkungan yang berbeda-beda. Setiap siswa mempunyai kebiasaan, ciri dan kebiasaan yang berbeda-beda yang dibawanya masing-masing dari rumahnya. Hal ini merupakan tugas dan tanggung jawab yang sangat berat bagi pengelola pesantren, mengingat para santri dengan latar belakang budaya yang berbeda-beda harus tinggal bersama dalam satu tempat bernama pesantren. Di sisi lain, pengelola pesantren juga harus bisa menjamin keamanan dan kenyamanan santrinya dari berbagai aspek, termasuk aspek psikologis.
