Therapeutic cultural resilience perspectives during the COVID-19 pandemic: An ethnographic qualitative study of Faisalabad, Pakistan
Authors: Akram Sara , Alam Muhammad Sardar
Published: December 2024

Collective trauma is instigated on a wide scale by warfare, poverty, natural disasters, or global health crises such as the COVID-19 pandemic. For instance, natural disasters have a significant impact on the social fabrics of communities. This fallout can cause long-term social support networks to disintegrate, especially when combined with a high level of risk. In Faisalabad, Pakistan, COVID-19-induced collective trauma resulted in social and cultural upheavals, particularly in the initial phase of uncertainty when no effective medical interventions were indicated. At the community level, such difficulties were overcome through traditional cultural resilience. In this regard, cultural folk practices are generated and modified to comprehend and navigate challenging circumstances. Thus, this study investigates how community awareness and treatment alternatives during the COVID-19 pandemic were rooted in traditional and folk knowledge. Specifically, we conducted an ethnographic investigation to determine how individuals endured the pandemic during the first wave in 2020. The primary qualitative investigation revealed various aspects, including how religion influenced societal attitudes and provided individuals with the resilience to cope with the crisis. In addition, a number of cultural perspectives that emerged during the initial COVID-19 breakout and subsequent lockdown phase were investigated. Meanwhile, our empirical investigation considered therapeutic stances, such as herbal remedies, natural therapy methods, and traditional beliefs, on the socially constructed nature of illness. Overall, such therapeutic cultural resilience enhanced the emotional well-being, sense of personal power, and self-awareness of individuals in this community.
Subanesthetic ketamine for reducing the harm of cocaine use disorder
Authors: Liriano Ambar , Gu Xinyu , Zuo Wanhong , Ye Jiang-Hong
Published: December 2024

Subanesthetic ketamine offers promising potential for reducing harm in individuals with cocaine use disorder (CUD). Research indicates that even a single dose can lessen cravings and decrease drug-seeking behaviors, though achieving long-term abstinence remains challenging. However, reduced cocaine consumption itself is a meaningful outcome. Ketamine’s potential in reducing the harm of CUD is also supported by its mechanism of action in the dopaminergic system, as it counters cocaine’s effect by interacting with dopamine receptors, stabilizing brain-derived neurotrophic factor levels, and modulating lateral habenula neuron bursting. In addition, concerns about ketamine’s abuse potential are minimized when it is administered in a clinical setting under professional supervision. This is supported by its success as a treatment for depression, indicating that, with appropriate safeguards, ketamine could be a valuable pharmacological strategy for harm reduction in CUD. When developing ketamine as a CUD harm-reduction strategy, it is also important to account for sex differences, which may affect patients’ sensitivity to ketamine and the potential for misuse. Although the promising effects of ketamine in treating depression support its use for CUD, most studies have focused on depression models, and additional research is needed to confirm safety and understand its specific mechanisms in CUD. Nonetheless, subanesthetic ketamine is a promising CUD intervention and should be further explored to provide an efficient and safe solution for patients in need. This narrative review mainly elucidates the ongoing research regarding ketamine’s mechanisms of action, pharmacology, and clinical application potential in CUD.

PLATANUS ORİENTALİS L. ADSORBANI İLE HAM PETROL DÖKÜNTÜLERİNİN SULARDAN GERİ KAZANIMI
Authors: Diler Hulusi , Leblebicier Yıldız
Published: December 2024

Sanayi devriminden bu yana endüstriyel gelişmeler ve petrolün keşfi, üretimi ve işlenmesi, çevresel kirlilik risklerini artırmıştır. Özellikle son yıllarda, dünyadaki petrol kirliliği içeren su hacmindeki artış, bu suların çevreye boşaltılmasıyla ciddi çevresel sorunlara yol açmıştır. Bu nedenle, petrol içeren suların arıtılması, ekosistemlerin korunması için hayati öneme sahiptir. Geleneksel olarak, petrol içeren sular fiziksel, kimyasal ve biyolojik yöntemlerle arıtılmaktadır. Ancak, bu yöntemlerin çoğu, su içinde asılı kalan küçük petrol partiküllerini ve çözünmüş bileşenleri tam olarak ortadan kaldıramamakta, yüksek işletme maliyetleri gerektirmekte ve açık deniz platformlarında tehlikeli çamur oluşumuna neden olmaktadır. Bu kapsamda, petrol döküntülerinin adsorpsiyon yoluyla giderimi, düşük maliyeti ve kolay uygulanabilirliği nedeniyle dikkat çekici bir alternatif olarak öne çıkmaktadır. Bu çalışmada, Petrolün sudan uzaklaştırılmasında, doğu çınarı (Platanus orientalis) tohumlarının çevresindeki selülozik lifler adsorban olarak tercih edilmiştir. Adsorbanın petrol adsorplama kapasitesi, ASTM F726-06 uluslararası standartlarına uygun testlerle ölçülmüştür. Optimize edilen doğu çınarı tohumlarının, kısa ve uzun vadeli petrol adsorpsiyonu testleri ile dinamik bozunma testleri gerçekleştirilmiştir. Simüle edilmiş deniz suyu (%3 tuz içeriği) kullanılarak yapılan testler sonucunda, 24 saatlik uzun vadeli değerlendirmede adsorban kapasitesi 26,21 g petrol/g adsorban olarak belirlenmiştir. Elde edilen sonuçlar, doğu çınarının kolay temin edilebilir olması ve yüksek adsorpsiyon kapasitesi nedeniyle benzer yöntemlerde kullanılan diğer adsorbanlara kıyasla daha ekonomik ve etkili bir seçenek sunduğunu göstermektedir.
EFFECTS OF DIFFERENT CONCENTRATIONS OF Cu+, Mn+, AND Ni+ IONS ON GLYCINE MAX GERMINATION
Authors: Akbaş Çağan
Published: December 2024

This study investigates the impact of varying concentrations of Cu+, Mn+, and Ni+ ions in sulfate salts on the germination and seed growth of soybeans (Glycine max). In regions with a high density of industrial complexes, agricultural lands often coexist with industrial activities, posing a risk to local food supplies and health. Wastewater from industrial centers, rich in heavy metals such as Cu, Ni, Pb, and Cr, can contaminate agricultural areas, affecting crops and seeds. This study explores the germination and growth of Glycine max seeds exposed to different concentrations (0.2 M, 0.1 M, and 0.05 M) of CuSO4, MnSO4, and NiSO4 salts. The study employs two-way ANOVA and regression analyses to assess the significance of solution types and concentrations on seed growth. The results indicate a strong negative correlation between increasing heavy metal concentrations and seed growth. However, no significant difference is observed among the effects of different metal ions. The study concludes that increased concentrations of Cu+, Mn+, and Ni+ ions in sulfate salts lead to a significant decrease in seed growth. The findings emphasize the potential risks of heavy metal contamination in agricultural practices and call for further research on the transfer of absorbed heavy metals in crops to human health.

Dolayısıyla eğitimde fırsat eşitliği ve kapsayıcı eğitim pedagojisi temelinde 2f öğrencilerin öğretim ortamları hem üstbiliş hem de yetersizliklerine cevap verecek biçimde yapılandırılmalıdır. Bu çalışmanın amacı da 2f öğrenciler için eğitimde fırsatları eşitleme amacıyla ‘Seymoria Boylerensis’ fosili öğretimidir. Çalışma Ankara ilinde özel yetenekli öğrencilerle öğretim yapan bir kurumda görme engeli ve özel yeteneği olan bir 2f öğrenci ile tek denekli araştırma temelinde yürütülmüştür. Çalışma öncesinde hangi paleontolojik konunun nasıl çalışılacağını planlamak amacıyla Maden Tetkik ve Arama Genel Müdürlüğü Şehit Cuma Dağ Tabiat Tarihi Müzesi’ne bir saha gezisinde bulunulmuştur. Saha gezisinde ‘Seymoria Boylorensis’ amfibi-sürüngen fosili, herkes tarafından az bilinen bir fosil olduğu düşüncesi ile çalışılacak fosil olarak belirlenmiştir. Uygulama sürecinden önce ‘Seymoria Boylorensis’in fosili modellenmiş ve eskiden yaşadığı coğrafya olarak Kuzey Amerika ile Avrupa’nın minik taşlarla işaretlendiği, adlarının da Braille alfabesi ile yazıldığı kabartmalı haritası çalışılmıştır. 2f öğrenci akran öğretimiyle fosili ve canlının yaşamış olduğu biyocoğrafyayı deneyimlemiştir. Araştırmada yarı yapılandırılmış görüşme formu ve 2f öğrencinin yapılandırdığı fosil modeli veri toplama araçlarıdır. Verilerin çözümlenmesinde betimlemeler ve içerik analizi kullanılmıştır. Çalışmanın sonucunda uygulama öncesinde Seymoria canlısına dair yaşanmışlıkları olmayan 2f öğrenci uygulama sonrası bu canlının neye benzediğini ve eskiden nerede yaşadığını deneyimlemiş ve öğrenmiştir. Ayrıca 2f öğrencinin yapılandırdığı fosil de bilimsel olarak kısmen doğru bulunmuştur. Sürecin işlerliğinden yola çıkarak ileriki çalışmalar için farklı tekniklerle fosil yapımı ve kabartmalı harita yapımı önerilmektedir.

Household Characteristics of Home schoolers in Kenya
Authors: Gachoki Charles Munene
Published: December 2024

This study aimed to succinctly identify the unique characteristics of homeschooling households in Kenya. The study used a literature review, a survey, and insights from key informants’ interviews. The study found that households that homeschool their children in Kenya are made up of married couples, have multiple children and are well educated with at least a bachelor's degree. One of the household partners stays or works at home and is likely to be the mother since they provide teaching in these households. Only 32 percent have a separate dedicated classroom while 40 percent do not have a dedicated learning space. Along the same line, only about two-thirds of the respondents preferred a flexible schedule, while 7 percent had no learning schedule. Parents (mothers) are more likely to teach the younger children while households are likely to employ a teacher for the older children above 14 years. Moreover, the characteristics do not deviate significantly from findings in other jurisdictions. Homeschooling households in Kenya are likely to come from medium urban areas and use multiple curriculums. A small portion of homeschooling households do not follow any curriculum. Homeschooling in Kenya is driven by the need to provide personalized learning and not pedagogical or Christian persuasion

Efektivitas Penyuluhan Terhadap Pengetahuan Tentang Teknik Akupresur untuk Meningkatkan Konsentrasi pada Siswa di SMKN 1 Tembuku
Authors: Rastiti Ida Ayu Anom , Strisanti Ida Ayu Suptika , Bhandesa Asthadi Mahendra
Published: December 2024

Student academic achievement is one of the main indicators used to assess the quality of education. One of the reasons for the low student learning outcomes currently is the lack of student concentration during the learning process. Concentration is the initial aspect of processing information. As for improving learning achievement, students should increase their concentration during the learning process. Acupressure is a therapeutic modality that has been proven to have the function of improving an individual's cognitive abilities. Many studies have found that acupuncture points, which can also be used for acupressure, have the effect of improving cognitive abilities. On this basis, researchers conducted a study related to the effect of health education on students' level of knowledge about acupressure to increase concentration in students at SMKN 1 Tembuku. Respondents were asked to fill out pre-test and post-test questionnaires before and after counseling to measure changes in knowledge. The results showed a significant increase in knowledge scores before and after the extension activities. Knowledge scores about acupressure increased from before (Md = 5.00) to (Md = 9.50) after counseling with a p-value < 0.01. This is also supported by the attitudes of respondents where the majority of respondents stated that they would apply this technique to increase study concentration. Participants' knowledge regarding acupressure to improve concentration have increased after receiving health education. Increasing the knowledge of respondents regarding acupressure techniques is a very good thing. This is because the acupressure technique has a number of benefits in increasing brain development and stimulating the secretion of neurotransmitters and hormones which are important for increasing student concentration. The acupressure technique is easy to use and has no side effects and can be applied by participants independently. Therefore, increasing knowledge of acupressure is very beneficial for school students, especially for those who often experience decreased concentration in studying.

Local wisdom should not be used as a mere symbol, it needs to be integrated in order to create learning that is decorated with wisdom so that the Indonesian generation has strong mental resilience, high morals, forms commendable behavior, and grows an anti-corruption culture. The research aims to describe the customs of the Ternate people as a model of anti-corruption education and its relevance to anti-corruption principles. Descriptive-based qualitative is the choice of this research. Research data is obtained through interviews and supported by relevant documentation and journals and books. Conclusion; 1) "Adat se-Atorang" comes from the ancestral heritage of the Ternate people which is adopted from the basic principle of Islamic teachings (Akhlakulkarimah) which serves as a guide to life, which is practiced continuously to prevent acts of self-destructive greed; 2) "Adat se-Atorang" with values at the core; Galib se-Lakudi (true authority belongs only to God, by His will, man only carries out His entrustment; Sere se-Duniru (in the construction of social interaction relationships, human beings must not deviate from His rules); Cing se-Cingari (when acting, it must be seen by the public, always aware of itself that there is supervision of man and God); Cara se-Ngale (doing a work always refers to the guidance of God (Allah Swt); Bobaso se-Rasai (the gift of God's knowledge to humans to maintain behavior in social relationships; Loa se-Bannari (if trust is given, it must be done honestly, correctly and straightly); Duka se-Cinta (grow an attitude of caring and tolerance for others); Baso se-Hormati (respect others and do not accuse or blame others). The value in question has a universal meaning and is in line with the principles of anti-corruption and the spirit of the mandate of the Anti-Corruption Law.

This study analyses Blitar's role as one of the Republic of Indonesia's guerrilla bases during the Dutch military aggression period and the struggle for independence. Located in East Java, Blitar has a long history, starting from the Dutch colonial period, the Japanese occupation, to the post-proclamation of Indonesian independence. Blitar became an important centre for military and emergency government activities in East Java, especially after the Dutch launched Military Aggression I and II. This research illustrates how Blitar became a gathering place for long march troops from various regions, as well as the formation of a military government structure that played an important role in defending the sovereignty of the Republic of Indonesia. Using data from various sources, including official reports and historical studies, this research seeks to present a picture of the socio-political and military dynamics in Blitar during this critical time in Indonesian history. However, despite its significant role, local history studies related to Blitar's role in this struggle are still minimally explored in history learning in schools. Therefore, the integration of Blitar's local history in the curriculum is expected to strengthen students' understanding of the importance of their region's contribution to national history.

The low interest of students in the subject of Pancasila education is often perceived as monotonous and less relevant. There are also impacts caused by the lack of variation in the delivery of Pancasila material, leading students to feel bored and less interested in participating in the learning process. This highlights the need for the development of learning media that is not only informative but also engaging and contextual. This research aims to develop and test the effectiveness of local wisdom-oriented audio-visual comics for Pancasila education aimed at elementary school students. This research uses the Research and Development (R&D) method with a 4-D model, which consists of the defining, designing, developing, and disseminating stages.
