ENQUIRE OF THE IMPLEMENTATION OF EDUCATIONAL FUNCTION ON TELEVISI REPUBLIK INDONESIA (TVRI) AS A PUBLIC BROADCASTING INSTITUTION
Authors: Widianti Ezki Tri Rezeki , Armando Ade , Triputra Pinckey
Published: December 2023

The function of education is traditionally attached to the role of the Public Broadcasting Service (PBS). Televisi Republik Indonesia (TVRI), stated in the Broadcasting Act 32/2002 as one of the public broadcasting institutions, along with Radio Republik Indonesia (RRI), are to carry out this educational function. This article will analyze the education function performed by TVRI. This research employs a single case study design. Data obtained through interviews and literature review. The results of the study show that educational broadcasts on TVRI have been around for a long time. The results of the documentation study show that educational broadcasts on TVRI receive a positive response from the public. Field research shows that one of the educational programs on TVRI, Study from Home (henceforth referred to as Belajar Dari Rumah/ BDR) has outperformed other public programs. Although traditionally considered one of the main functions of public television, the implementation of educational broadcasts, especially formal education on TVRI is not consistently carried out. The absence of formal education programs at TVRI was due to technical constraints in the form of a lack of compatible studio equipment to record formal education programs and unavailable budgets for the programs..

Published: December 2023

In Indonesia, stand-up comedy performances have become popular in recent years. Stand-up comedy performances are completed and broadcast regularly on Indonesian television, and easily be found on social media such as YouTube. However, some stand-up comedy material is considered offensive and has resulted in legal cases. This includes materials that carry religious themes. This research analyzes the representation of Islam in the stand-up comedy material of Priska Baru Segu and Boris Bokir on Deddy Corbuzier's YouTube channel. This study is descriptive qualitative research. The stand-up comedy material of Priska Baru Segu and Boris Bokir is examined using critical discourse analysis by Teun A. van Dijk. This research concludes that the representation of Islam in the stand-up comedy material of Priska Baru Segu and Boris Bokir depicts Islam as hegemonic. This image emerges in the relationship between the majority group (Islam) and minorities in Indonesia. The strengthening of majoritarianism further solidifies the hegemony and dominance of Islam. Priska and Boris present material that represents religious issues in Indonesia: the closure of churches, the pros and cons of saying Merry Christmas, raids on restaurants during Ramadan, and issues of identity politics. Comedy based on religious material that Priska and Boris deliver operates under the shadow of societal sensitivities and accusations of blasphemy.

Nanohybrid composite resin is a dental restorative material comprising micro and nano-sized fillers. When accompanied by smoking habits, it can alter the surface roughness of composite resin. Objective: This study aimed to determine the effect of several electric cigarette (e-cigarette) puffs on the surface roughness of nanohybrid composite resin. Methods: This study was conducted in the experimental laboratory with a pretest-posttest control group design using 48 nanohybrid composite resin specimens divided into six groups. Subsequently, the experimental groups were exposed to 75, 150, 225, 300, and 450 puffs of e-cigarette, and the control group was given artificial saliva immersion without exposure for 21 days. The surface roughness of specimens was measured with a surface roughness tester and evaluated through statistical analysis, including One-Way ANOVA and Post-Hoc LSD. Results: The average pre-test and post-test differences between groups I, II, III, IV, V, and VI were 0.013, 0.022, 0.033, 0.044, 0.065, and 0.005 μm. These results showed a significant difference in the surface roughness of nanohybrid composite resin (p < 0.05), with variations between all groups. Conclusion: This study showed that the number of e-cigarette puffs had a significant effect on the surface roughness of nanohybrid composite resin. Specifically, an increase in the number of e-cigarette puffs led to a rise in the surface roughness value of nanohybrid composite resin.

Creating cities resilient in multiple dimensions could be appropriate and economic thanks to strengthening town structure to alter crises and natural and unnatural hazards. Therefore, the aim of this study is to investigate the connection between the resilience in the city of Sari and the risk situation towards natural disasters. Data analysis with geographic information system (GIS), Decision making trial and evaluation laboratory (DEMATEL), and analytic network process (ANP) is carried out. The variables studied to explain the resilience of the city of Sari are the conditions of open spaces, incompatible land uses, land bed, building resistance, access, property, density, which are evaluated in the presented paradigm. After collecting the scores and multiplying the scores by the coefficients obtained from the statistical procedures of an urban resilience model, the final computation of urban resilience in Sari was performed. The results show that its value has been calculated as 5.44398, which shows that there is an urgent need to develop programs and reform structures to increase the level of resilience in this urban area. One of the effective factors in urban resilience is the high level of social participation in crisis, which is necessary in this area. It is suggested to create educational programs in the community, so that they can maximize the level of communication and participation of employees.

Authors: Hamdhan Indra Noer , Eliza Emilia
Published: December 2023

The slope is a surface that lies at an angle to the horizontal. If the driving force at the slope is bigger than the resisting force, it can inflict a landslide. Gabions are one of the slope reinforcements structures that can be used to prevent landslides. Gabion has woven wire and has tensile strength.  This study aims to examine the effect of modeling of tensile strength on gabion wire using Plaxis 3D, as well as the effectiveness of variations in height, variations in tensile strength, variations in gabion reinforcement patterns on slopes. The soil is modeled as homogeneous loamy sand with a geometry of 10m high and 1:1 slope. Modeling the tensile strength of gabions can increase the value of the safety factor by 9.5% compared to without modeling the tensile strength of gabions. The optimal gabion height that increasing the safety factor is 6m. The value of the tensile strength of gabion wire does not have a significant effect on the safety factor of the slope. The placement of gabions with a zigzag and lined pattern and a gentle slope will more increase the safety factor.

Authors: Muis Abdul , Wulandari Sri
Published: December 2023

Soft soil is inevitable in the construction, be it road construction or building construction. Soil improvement is needed to overcome the problem of soft soil, soil improvement methods are growing and diverse. This research is focused on studying the interaction behavior of combination two soil improvement methods, namely Prefabricated Vertical Drain (PVD) and Stone Column (SC). This research was conducted using PLAXIS 2D with Mohr-Coulomb (MC) and Soft Soil (SS) material models. The results showed that the combination of PVD and SC methods provides the advantage that PVD can accelerate the consolidation time and SC can reduce the settlement that occurs in the soil. The use of SS model is greater settlement compared to using Mohr-Coulomb material model with a settlement of 1,641 m for Soft Soil and 0.463 m for Mohr-Coulomb. SC depth variation affects the settlement and settlement time, the longer the SC the smaller settlement and the shorter time, while PVD only affects the time. Combining PVD and SC results in better settlement and settlement time compared to PVD or SC alone. Variations in construction methods result in slight differences for MC material models, whereas for SS material models, construction methods 2 are greater in settlement and shorter time.

The rapid development of oil palm plantations raises environmental issues related to biodiversity and conservation. Thus, a holistic and integrated approach is needed to manage high conservation values (HCV). This holistic and integrated approach involves various stakeholders in implementing sustainability principles. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of applying the principles and evaluating the adaptive management practices of HCV areas applied to oil palm plantations. The research was conducted on an oil palm plantation in Seruyan District, Central Kalimantan Province, Indonesia, with HCV 1 – 5 criteria covering an area of 5379 ha. Employing an observational method, the data were collected via field observations and interviews with relevant stakeholders, including oil palm plantation management, environmental organizations and local communities. The findings show that by protecting HCV, oil palm plantations can operate sustainably and reduce environmental negative impacts. The application of the principles of HCV areas in the company involves identifying, assessing and protecting areas with high ecological, social, and cultural values. These are then used as the basis for recommendations for adaptive management in oil palm plantations. Through adaptive management, oil palm plantations can adapt their practices to local conditions, reduce negative impacts, assess impacts, and take appropriate steps according to the conditions. The success of adaptive management carried out by the company can be seen based on data on the decline in HCV openings and the maintenance of HCV 1 - 5 areas. Thus, by applying adaptive principles and management, oil palm plantations in Central Kalimantan can increase sustainability, protect the environment, and provide sustainable social and economic benefits. Having important implications for the palm oil industry, this research can be used as a guide in policy-making that supports the development of environmentally responsible oil palm plantations.

Published: December 2023

Aim. To study the existence of a relationship between the density of bone tissue and the length of the edentulous part of the tooth row.
Materials and methods. Evaluation of the density of the spongy substance of the jaws by the maximum and average value of HU. The density of cancellous bone was evaluated only in the areas available for implant placement. The groups consisted of the localization and extent of the dentition defect. Statistical methods included the estimation of the arithmetic mean (M), standard deviation (σ), error of the mean (m), confidence interval (95 % CI), estimation of the median (Me) and interquartile range ([Q1; Q2]), Student’s test (t criterion).
Results. Maximum and average indicators of cancellous bone density in defects of the upper (562.4 [347.1; 777.8] and 301.5 [163.0; 439.9], respectively (р = 0.84) and lower (1379.0 [1116.2; 1641.9] HU and 848.6 [630.6; 1066.6] HU, respectively, p = 0.96) jaws in the areas of molars and premolars with “large” defects are significantly different from the indicators “small” defects (299.7 [176.9; 422.4] and 642.6 [470.4; 814.9], 1061.1 [866.5; 1255.7] and 608.3 [440.5; 776.1, respectively). The average bone density of the alveolar process of the upper jaw is almost the same in defects of different lengths. The average density of the cancellous bone of the alveolar part of the lower jaw in “large” defects has significant differences from “average” ones (p = 0.02) and “small” (p = 0.005) defects.
Conclusions. The average density of cancellous bone of the alveolar part of the lower jaw in “large” defects has significant differences from “medium” (p = 0.02) and “small” (p = 0.005) defects, and regardless of the extent of the dentition defect corresponds to class D3 (350–850 HU) according to the Misch classification. The average density of cancellous bone of the alveolar process of the upper jaw in the areas of molars and premolars does not have significant differences depending on the extent of the dentition defect and corresponds to class D4 (150–350 HU) according to the Misch classification. Since one class includes a large range of values, the clinical classification of Misch does not allow taking into account individual bone density indicators that have statistically significant differences in different areas of the dentition.

Vom Kult zur Marke. Das Nietzsche-Archiv in Weimar und sein Netzwerk .
Authors: Fünderich Maren-Sophie
Published: December 2023

The Nietzsche Archive in Weimar, which was reorganised by Elisabeth Förster-Nietzsche (1846–1935) after the death of her brother Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900), is regarded as an example of an outstanding collection that stands for the dawn of modernity around 1900. The circumstances of how Nietzsche’s sister managed and expanded the archive in Weimar clearly show the structure and development of a network. The archive is located on the ground floor of “Villa Silberblick”, a representative Wilhelminian villa on the outskirts of the city, which Förster-Nietzsche had moved into in 1897, and where she cared for her brother and where she remained after his death. This collection in the Nietzsche Archive includes furniture and interiors that Förster-Nietzsche had commissioned from the up-and-coming Belgian architect Henry van de Velde (1863–1957). She wanted to create a place for the Nietzsche cult, which she pursued with all her might, and to have her brother’s works translated into interior design. She was helped in this by patron Harry Graf Kessler (1868–1937), who was looking for a reference project in Weimar for Van de Velde, the new artistic advisor to the young Grand Duke of Saxe-Weimar, and recommended him to Förster-Nietzsche. With Van de Velde’s establishment, the Nietzsche Archive became not only a focal point of Nietzsche worship at the beginning of the 20th century, but also the centre of the “New Weimar”, a cultural-political project for which Kessler and Förster-Nietzsche were able to gain the support
Perspektywa temporalna w narracjach o życiu w trakcie pandemii COVID-19 u osób we wczesnej i średniej dorosłości
Authors: Duplaga Anita , Jezierski Kamil , Rostek Irmina
Published: December 2023

The COVID-19 pandemic had a significant impact on the Polish people’s life. At the same time the development period may also modify a perception of life situation. The paper presents the results of research on temporal perspective in the early (n = 38) and the middle (n = 38) adulthood in a pandemic situation. Participants of the study wrote a narrative about their life. The obtained narratives were analyzed according to the categories distinguished by Zimbardo and Boyd and coded: past positive perspective, past negative perspective, present fatalistic perspective, present hedonistic perspective, future perspective. Some extra categories of perspectives were also used: the neutral dimension (in relation to the past, present and future) and axiological (in relation to present). Results showed dominance of present perspective in both groups, wherein it was more frequent in the early adulthood. There were statistically significant differences in present fatalistic perspective – in the early adulthood it occurred more frequently. No significant differences between groups were noticed in reference to other perspectives. The obtained material probably captures a part of the process of incorporating atypical life situations into the internal narrative scheme. It also seems that the pandemic crisis triggered the need to focus on maintaining the current level of functioning in the face of new challenges.
Emocje w narracjach, czyli o strukturze pojęcia strachu u dzieci w wieku przedszkolnym i wczesnoszkolnym

Published: December 2023

The article presents research on the structure and content of the concept of sadness, based on the statements of preschool and early school age children. The research was carried out in a transverse (transversal) system among children selected from six age groups: 4.0−4.11, 5.0−5.11, 6.0−6.11, 7.0−7.11, 8.0−8.11, 9.0−9.11. Data collected from a sample of 240 children were used to analyze the test results. There were 20 girls and 20 boys in each of the six designated age group. In order to describe the content and structure of emotional concepts the experimental technique created by S. Grabias (2012) was used. It allowed to obtain an information on six basic components of a given concept, i.e. definition/definition category, carrier, features, activities, causes, circumstances /effect and in addition his assessment. When describing the emotions of fear, the youngest children mainly used tautological definitions containing synonyms and the oldest ones were dominated by abstract definitions. When talking about the symptoms of emotions, the surveyed children focused primarily on the perceptual indicators of experiencing it. The face and changes in facial expression are particularly significant to them. When describing a person experiencing fear, preschool children mainly referred to typical behaviors related to this emotion, i.e.: afraid, shouting, crying. Analyzes concerning the indications of children for the activities performed by the carrier of the emotion fear show that among the respondents in general, flight from the object of fear was dominant. In the opinion of the surveyed children, the main cause of fear are situations related to the violation of physical body, causing fear and anxiety in humans. Children’s descriptions of reactions to other people’s fear reflect their own tendency to self-regulate, that is, finding ways to deal with experiences. Fear in the perception of the respondents is a negative emotion.
The right to the environment? Article 4(1) of the Polish Environmental Protection Law Act from a combined comparative law and Polish-English legal translation perspective
Authors: Kusik Przemysław
Published: December 2023

A human right to the environment is increasingly recognised in both domestic and international law. Also in Polish legal scholarship, there is a discussion over the possibility of deriving a right to the environment from the Constitution or ordinary statutes, including Article 4(1) of the Environmental Protection Law Act. The existing English translations of its opening words, and specifically the term powszechne korzystanie ze środowiska, appear to mirror the legal controversy. Compared to Poland, the major common law jurisdictions, i.e. England and the USA, show multiple differences in respect of the public’s enjoyment of the environment. In addition to a distinct legal mentalité, grounded on a case-by-case approach, negative freedoms and remedies thinking, both jurisdictions are characterised by considerable private ownership of natural resources like rivers and forests. In view of this legal and translation problem, the present paper seeks to employ comparative law methodology to establish an acceptable English translation equivalent of the term powszechne korzystanie ze środowiska. The analysis is also an attempt to go beyond the ways in which the use of comparative law in legal translation is typically perceived, i.e., beyond functionalism, beyond micorcomparison and beyond conceptual analysis.
Sztuka epoki paleolitu w świetle hipotezy mózgu społecznego

Published: December 2023

The purpose of this article is to try to look at the phenomenon of Paleolithic cave art differently – through the prism of the assumptions of the social brain hypothesis. This paper will present the main assumptions of Robin Dunbar’s social brain concept, which assumes that the increase in the size of the social group influenced the development of the individual (both biologically and socio-culturally). Larger communities provided the impetus for the development of new cognitive qualities, which provided the opportunity for art to emerge.
Wybrane motywy archeologiczne z zakresu pradziejów i wczesnego średniowiecza na monetach europejskich z lat 1992-2022
Authors: Lajsner Włodzimierz
Published: December 2023

Coins are not only a means of payment, but also a means of cultural communication. Both their obverses and reverses contain epigraphic and iconographic elements that together create an image. Among the iconographic elements, there are motifs understood as a repeating decorative element, but also as an expression of a certain type of idea. Archaeological motifs reflect their form of archaeological monuments or their elements, while their subject matter commemorates not only the monument itself, but also various related aspects researched by archaeologists. The aim of the considerations was to examine the numismatic form of commemorating archaeological heritage. The presented prehistoric and early medieval motifs appearing on European coins in the years 1992–2022 were first analyzed in terms of the form of their depiction on coins, then the archaeological themes with which these motifs are connected were taken into account, and on this basis axiological considerations were possible, aimed at answering the question – why a given motif was placed on the coin.

The aim of the article is to present a breakthrough time for iron metallurgy, which was the beginning of the Late Period, in particular the reign of the XXVI Dynasty. Presentation of this issue will be possible through the analysis of preserved artifacts from this period It shows the variety of used forms of objects and the methods of iron processing. The key to this article is the presence of iron processing workshops in the Greco-Egyptian centers, which are the oldest – discovered evidence of the processing of this metal in Egypt. The analysis of the workshops themselves, the tools used there and the remnants of metalworking preserved will be helpful in studying the development of iron metallurgy in the discussed period. An important part of the work is also an attempt to answer the questions: where did the impulse that introduced workshop iron processing in Egypt come from, and whether the Nubians or maybe foreigners, e.g. the Greeks appearing at the end of the Third Intermediate Period and at the beginning of the Late Period in the country on the Nile? The analysis of the above points will emphasize the groundbreaking nature of the discussed topic.
Introduction of innovative solutions in agriculture – legal aspects
Authors: Niewiadomska Agata
Published: December 2023

The aim of the article is to identify the possibility of creating legal solutions for the implementation of innovation in agriculture in the Polish and European legal system. The particular emphasis on the development of new technologies put in the Common Agricultural Policy after 2023 indicates that it is becoming one of the most important factors shaping the competitiveness and profitability of agriculture. It presupposes the development of a number of legal mechanisms that together will make up agricultural innovation. This heterogeneity is a major problem but at the same time an opportunity for agriculture. The article identifies first of all possible legal solutions, but emphasises that they cannot be developed without the cooperation of specialists from other scientific disciplines and representatives of business related to modern technologies. The definition of the legal framework for innovative solutions in agriculture cannot be separated from the consideration of global and European aspects. The speed and possibilities of the application of modern solutions will determine the place of Polish agriculture in the international arena for many years to come.

Relationship between annual soil erosion and surface runoff in Wadi Hanifa sub-basins
Authors: Alzahrani Hassan
Published: December 2023

Soil erosion is the major environmental risk that causes topsoil loss, which decreases fertility in agricultural land. Spatial estimation of soil erosion is essential for conserving land resources and for developing control plans. This study evaluated soil erosion in 17 sub-basins of the Wadi Hanifa catchment using the Gavrilović model. The soil erosion rate is categorized into three classes based on the annual volume of rainfall and runoff. About 21% of the drainage area of Wadi Hanifa is affected by erosion severity, and 33% of the area is affected by severe erosion. The correlation obtained between the annual soil erosion and annual volumes of rainfall and runoff is significant. It is concluded from the results that the drainage area of the north-western part suffers from a high soil erosion risk. The NRCS-CN and erosion predict that the Gavrilović model can be applied for estimating and analyzing the spatial distribution of soil erosion over more drainage watersheds in Saudi Arabia. Now, the GIS techniques are one of the best tools for developing the conservation and management planning processes of soil resources.
Influence of nappe structure on the Carboniferous volcanic reservoir in the middle of the Hongche Fault Zone, Junggar Basin, China
Authors: Chen Zhengyu , Qin Qirong , Li Hu , Zhou Jiling , Wang Jie
Published: December 2023

This work presents an in-depth examination of the Carboniferous volcanic reservoir within the CH471 well area, situated in the central portion of the Hongche fault zone on the northwestern margin of the Junggar Basin. Leveraging seismic data and well connection comparisons, we scrutinize the tectonic evolution model and elucidate the impact of the nappe structure of the Hongche fault zone on the volcanic reservoir. The study has obtained the following understanding: after the formation of Carboniferous volcanic rocks, affected by the Hongche fault structure, a series of structural superpositions from extension to extrusion and finally thrust occurred, resulting in a northwestward tilt of the volcanic rock mass, and a large number of cracks were generated inside the rock mass. At the same time, the top was uplifted and affected by weathering and leaching to form a weathering crust, eventually forming a reservoir. The northern part is located in the edge area of the eruption center, and the rock mass has good stratification. The rock strata have certain constraints on the reservoir distribution, and the reservoir is inclined along the rock mass. The southern part is close to the eruption center and features large volcanic breccia accumulation bodies with strong internal heterogeneity. The reservoir developed mainly in the superposition of the range of control of the weathering crust and dense fracture development, and the rock mass morphology does not control the area. Structure is the key to forming a volcanic rock reservoir, mainly reflected in the following aspects. First, tectonic activity is accompanied by fracture development, and fractures are densely developed in areas with strong activity, which can effectively improve the physical properties of volcanic reservoirs. Second, tectonic activity leads to the strata uplift and weathering denudation, forming a weathering crust. Within the range of control of weathering and leaching, the physical properties of volcanic rocks are improved, and it is easier to form high-quality reservoirs. Third, the distribution of volcanic rock masses is controlled by tectonic activity, which affects the reservoir controlled by the dominant lithology.

Published: December 2023

Objectives

Resveratrol (RSV) is a stilbenoid compound that shows anticancer activity in many cancer cells. Exosomes might affect carcinogenesis and the development of colorectal cancer by affecting communication between tumor cells in the tumor microenvironment via their cargo content miRNA. The aim of this study is to determine the effect of RSV on the expression of Dicer, Ago2, eIf2α, CD-9, CD-63, and exosomal miRNA levels in COLO320 and COLO741 colon cancer cell lines.

Methods

The MTT method was used for cell growth and cytotoxicity in both COLO320 and COLO741 cell lines. Dicer, Ago2, eIF2α, CD-9, and CD-63 antibodies were used for the immunocytochemical evaluation. Total miRNA analysis was performed using a miRCURY Exosome Isolation Kit.

Results

As a result of immunocytochemical staining, increased CD-63 immunoreactivity was observed in RSV-treated COLO320 cells vs. RSV-treated COLO-741 cells. Dicer immunoreactivity increased after the RSV treatment in COLO320 cells. Higher eIF2α immunoreactivity was observed in RSV-treated COLO741 cells compared to both COLO741 control cells and RSV-treated COLO320 cells. Non-significant decreases were observed in miRNA concentration in RSV-treated COLO320 and COLO741 cells compared to control group cells.

Conclusions

RSV could increase miRNA biogenesis in COLO320 cancer cells and decrease it in COLO741 cancer cells.

Syro-Melkite manuscript of the 15th century (vat. Sir. 351): an unfinished project of the monthly Menaion for the whole year in one volume
Authors: Lukashevich Aleksandr
Published: December 2023

This article describes contents, paleographic, linguistic, and liturgical features of one of the Syriac manuscripts of the Vatican Library, Vat. sir. 351, dating back to the 15th century. A large part of the manuscript is written by one scribe with a very fine and professional handwriting, but there are also insertions of other scribes, two of them we know by their names indicated in the margins (Yusuf, Salam). The manuscript is written mostly in classical Syriac, but some rubrics and texts are written in Arabic. The Menaion contains texts of the Holy Scripture: readings from the Apostol and the Gospel in the beginning of the manuscript, then in the Menaion part — prokimena, alleluiaria, communion hymns, New Testament readings for matins and liturgy, psalms of the great hours and selected psalms (eklogai) for singing after the polyeleos on great feasts. We may suggest that the scribe planned to include the entire Menaion for the whole year, from September to August, in one volume. However, this experiment remained incomplete: services for every day can be found only in the beginning and in the end of the manuscript (months of September, October, part of November, August), while other months contain a selection of the most festive days. Thus, the manuscript cannot be fully characterized by terms like a “Monthly Menaion” or a “Festal Menaion”. Days without services contain only indications of the date, names of the saints, often with addition of stichera, troparion and kontakion, always with indications of readings for the liturgy; the scribe usually left an empty space after the date, due to lack of time or inability to find the necessary texts. The changes from daily services to festive selection and vice versa are situated not far from large portions written by other scribes.

Entrepreneurship plays a vital role in the process of wealth creation and improving the standard of living of the people through large-scale employment generation. So this study aims to identify the critical factors among the entrepreneurial framework conditions (EFC) and entrepreneurial behaviour and attitudes (EBAA) in enhancing the entrepreneurship climate in the United States of America (USA), China and India. The data for the study is collected from GEM (Global Entrepreneurship Monitor) on EBAA and EFC. Exploratory factor analysis was attempted initially to reduce the EBAA and EFC data into manageable factors. Further, confirmatory factor analysis was attempted to cross-validate the results.
Key Points: • The results unveil that the Public conditions and Business Promotions (EFC) in the USA are superior to India and China. At the same time, India lags behind both the USA and China. • Indian entrepreneurs are more optimistic and audacious than their Chinese counterparts. • The future of entrepreneurship in India depends on what measures the Government adopts today to strengthen the entrepreneurship framework conditions.
A Roadmap to a Successful Exchange Rate Regime Transition: Takeaways from 6 African Transitions
Authors: Bouhali Hamza , Dahbani Ahmed , Dinar Brahim
Published: December 2023

This article investigates the role of monetary policies in the success of exchange rate regime transition and the mitigation of related risks. We adopted a comparative methodology for three types of regime switches using 3 GARCH family models and data from 6 African countries over two decades. Our main findings are that a gradual and well-prepared transition improves its outcome and allows the market more flexibility in absorbing domestic and external volatilities, even during a crisis. The results of this study will provide policymakers with a road map to succeed in the exchange rate regime transition and mitigate the inherent risks.
Social vulnerability access to culture as a determinant
Authors: Verdecia Tamayo Manuel de Jesus
Published: December 2023

The objective of this article is to analyze access to culture as one of the determining factors in social vulnerability. To achieve the objective, the methodology used was documentary, with a quantitative-qualitative approach and of a descriptive nature; the method used was the inductive one. For its part, the search for information was carried out online in Google Scholar, in the Scielo database, Dialnet. The population was made up of the documents registered under the format of theses/articles/books consulted, with a total of 18 documents, of which were selected through criteria, it is made up of a total of 11 documents from the last two decades. It is concluded that social vulnerability corresponds to a set of social and cultural factors, including access to culture expressed at the macro level in public policies, cultural, educational and micro systems, including cultural institutions or programs, added to this the educational contexts, the quality of the professionals who socialize cultural knowledge, the climate of cultural access, cultural consumption and the leadership that coherently complements said processes. These processes are of vital importance because they specify cultural policies in the social, community and family contexts, in such a way that, without them, there will be no national, regional or local cultural policy that allows cultural access for all, as an effective tool to combat and reduce social vulnerability effectively.

Aim: Assess the post-pandemic nutritional status of schoolchildren in an educational institution in Huánuco, Peru. Methods: a quantitative, descriptive, observational, prospective, cross-sectional study with a comparative descriptive design, with a population of 228 students and a sample of 143 students, who were administered a questionnaire and a registration form after validation. The Mann-Whitney U and Chi-square tests were used for inferential analysis. Results: 25.2% (36) were overweight and 3.5% (5) were obese. It was found that there was a significant relationship between the frequency of food consumption and nutritional status (P-value=0.014). Conclusion: It was concluded that the school children presented a normal nutritional status, followed by overweight, obesity and thinness.
Sensory integration from an occupational therapy perspective
Authors: Duarte António Arsénio
Published: December 2023

An analysis of Sensory Integration in the view of Occupational Therapy (OT) in Neonatal Intensive Care Units (NICUs), which is important for the development of newborn babies, considering the medical and surgical involvement, and the excessive sensory stimuli to which these babies are subjected at a stage when they should be in an intrauterine environment. Occupational Therapy (OT) is fundamental to Sensory Integration as it combines theoretical concepts, the needs of preterm babies, their families and the environment, with practice. An interview script was used to gather information about the units, and nine health professionals who worked in the area, or in pediatrics with premature babies, took part. It was found that there is a great shortage of professionals in the NICU teams, essentially in rehabilitation, and that OT is proving to be an asset in the rehabilitation process of this population.

Models of the interaction of the electromagnetic field of mobile systems of low-frequency inductive electrical exploration and conducting ferromagnetic bodies
Authors: Buchma Ihor
Published: December 2023

The subject of the article is a review of the author's proposed dynamic models of the interaction of the primary electromagnetic harmonic field of mobile electromagneticexploratorysystems and the secondary (eddy current) field of a conducting body with ferromagnetic properties and proposals for new applications of such and similar systems.These models make it possible to theoretically substantiate the shape of the signal from a ferromagnetic body. A signal of this form was often observed by moving systems in practice, but it had no theoretical explanation and was therefore not used. The purpose of the review is to acquaint the wider scientific community with the new possibilities of mobile electromagnetic exploratory systems. In particular, this is the ability of mobile electromagnetic exploratory systems to detect conductive bodies not only with diamagnetic properties, but also with ferromagnetic ones in the ground and water, based on appropriate signals.
