Authors:   ,   Andrews University, Kirner Marianne
Published: May 2023

Problem. Prereferral intervention has been implemented in many schools across the country as one systemic solution to concerns about special education prevalence rates. This study analyzed change in special education prevalence rates in Connecticut schools participating in the Early Intervention Project (EIP) as compared to Connecticut schools not participating in the project. The project incorporates a building-based team using a problem-solving approach to provide prompt and sustained support to classroom teachers who request assistance in working with students who are at risk of referral for special education. Method. The research design consisted of a comparison of special education prevalence change rates. Prevalence change rate was the dependent variable. The principle independent variable was participation in the Connecticut Early Intervention Project (EIP) by a school, using the designations “EIP’" school and “non-EIP” school. A one-way analysis of variance was performed to determine if there were significantly different special education prevalence change rates. Additional analyses were conducted on EIP schools using two attribute independent variables, race/ethnicity and Connecticut’s education reference groups (ERGs), on which one-way analyses of variance were also performed. After finding the main effect, a third attribute independent variable, initial year of EIP participation, was used. The data were more closely examined through two additional comparisons, calculation of the Spearman’s rho correlation coefficient and a one-way analysis of variance. Analyses were conducted at the school level. There were 864 public schools across 169 districts in Connecticut. Results. The mean special education prevalence change rates between schools participating in EIP and non-EIP schools were found to differ significantly, F (1,862) = 4.876, p < .05. There was also a significant difference in the special education prevalence change rates between ERGs in EIP schools, F (8,149) = 3.385, p < .05. Conclusions. The results support the use of the EIP model in Connecticut. This prereferral intervention model and the subsequent instructional and behavioral strategies associated with it can be expected to reduce the rate of referral for possible special education placement, thus lowering the special education prevalence rate.
The Role of Faith in God in Administrative Decision-Making: a Descriptive Multiple Case Study of Three African-American Christian Women Administrators of American Higher Education
Authors:   ,   Andrews University, Link Nancy
Published: May 2023

Problem. Faith in God is a phenomenon that is difficult to define. Yet, it can be seen as an attitude of complete trust in God. As Proctor (1995) stated, faith in God is believing that there is a purpose and a power (called God) available to each of us, giving us an "inexhaustible source of evergreen inspiration" (p. xvii). Therefore, this study focused on how faith in God impacted administrative decision-making practices of three African-American Christian women administrators of higher education. Method. To achieve the purpose of this study, the literature was reviewed to identify existing theories. This descriptive multiple case study approach examined the impact of religious faith on the decision-making practices of three African-American Christian women administrators of higher education. Case study techniques used were interviews, observations, note-taking, reviewing existent documents, etc. to gain an understanding ofwhat the observed world was actually like. Different kinds of questions and analyses, derived from Spradley's (1979) developmental research sequence, were also used to enhance themethod of analyzing and interpreting the data. Findings and conclusions. Throughout this study, numerous attributes or values such as love, honesty, peace, joy, hope, intuition, etc. were engendered by faith in God. These attributes reflected anthropological, psychological, and sociological factors, thereby suggesting three theoretical models (to help understand faith-informed decisions): Fowler's stages of faith, Erikson's theory of human development; and the biblical model (Heb 11 and 1 Cor 13). According to the findings, it was the practice of the three Christian administrators in this study to ask God for help when making decisions, particularly administrative decisions. Because of their experiences, stories, and viewpoints, it was evident that their profession of faith in God was practiced overtly. The study revealed that religious faith was used as a practical approach to problem solving, conflict resolution, and decision-making practices in the lives of these administrators. Finally, the study showed that faith in God has given these Christian women strength of character to make faith-informed administrative decisions, which is the ability to use the qualities of the spiritual life intermingled with expertise and gifts from God for the good of the organization.
College Graduates' Perception of Placement-Service Impact at Three Selected Institutions of Higher Education in the Michiana Area
Authors:   ,   Andrews University, Ntaganda Javan
Published: May 2023

Problem. Colleges have established offices of career planning and placement services to advise students who are making decisions concerning their vocational goals and to help graduates secure employment in their field of study. However, despite good intentions and efforts put together by colleges in establishing such offices, one problem still exists and needs to be addressed: It appears that the impact of career planning and placement services is not clearly understood by all potential graduates. There is a need for research to investigate how students perceive services provided by this office. Method. The study acquired the perceptions of 255 graduates regarding the impact of placement services. Data were organized and coded into various categories and related to the different classifications of the respondents. By this method the researcher was able to see how different categories of the graduates responded to different questions. The responses given by the graduates for each item on the Likert-type scale provided an indication of the degree to which the respondents agreed or disagreed with the statement. The data collected in this study were analyzed using Analysis of Variance (one-way classification). This method analyzed the effect of gender, college major, job position, annual salary, and how respondents secured employment in the perceived impact of placement services. Results. There were significant differences between gender, college major, job position, annual salary, and how the job was found regarding the perceived impact of placement services. All factors were tested at .05 level of significance; p was below .05 with all factors tested. Conclusion. More females (45%) than males (36%) were very satisfied with placement services. Job satisfaction was ranked higher (70%) than any other item. Five other items had scores between 60% and 67%, suggesting that graduates were satisfied by placement services. The item asking if the resume services offered by the placement office were of great value ranked between 40% and 49%, suggesting that graduates needed more assistance with resume preparation. Placement-office personnel need to provide more resume preparation than they previously offered.
Integration of Faith and Learning in Christian Higher Education : Professional Development of Teachers and Classroom Implementation
Authors:   ,   Andrews University, Nwosu Constance
Published: May 2023

Problem. Few studies have focused on effective professional development programs that enhance faith-learning implementation in the Christian higher education classroom, and little has been documented about what integration of faith and learning actually looks or sounds like in Christian higher education classrooms. Purpose. This study had four purposes: 1. To describe the training processes used for preparing teachers in Christian higher education for implementing EFL in the classroom. 2. To compare these methodologies with Jesus’ training methodologies and research-based professional development programs. 3. To understand how teachers in Christian higher education classrooms defined IFL. 4. To identify and document some exemplary practices of faith and learning integration in Christian higher education classrooms. Methodology. This study used a descriptive, qualitative case study method comprising purposive sampling techniques; participant observation; semi-structured, in-depth interviews; surveys; observation of three Faith and Learning Seminars, and observation of six teachers from the three Christian colleges. Findings and Conclusions. A triangulation of this data revealed common themes. First, the training processes employed at the Faith and Learning Seminars seemed to emphasize more the publication of IFL (position) papers than classroom implementation. These training processes lacked some essential components which Jesus, the Master Teacher/Trainer, used to train His disciples—components which research has found to facilitate transfer of skills to the workplace, enhance effectiveness, impact student performance, and help implementors deal with their personal concerns about the new knowledge. Second, there was no single definition of IFL. Definitions of IFL fell into three classifications: intellectual (thinking Christianly and seeking the mind of God, and seeking balance between the spiritual and the secular), lifestyle, and discipleship/relationship. However, most seminar participants defined IFL intellectually. Third, many of the IFL practices in the Christian higher education classrooms seemed to be based on teacher talk and did not occur at the level of student learning. This study revealed that the most obvious reason for thus was that both the teachers and their trainers in IFL seemed to lack the training on how to model or provide practical suggestions on how to implement IFL in the classroom. Pedagogy is a crucial component for classroom implementation of IFL.
The Role of the Academic Physical Therapy Department Chair as Perceived by Physical Therapy Teaching Faculty and Chairs
Authors:   ,   Andrews University, Perry Wayne
Published: May 2023

Problem The purpose o f this study was to determine the roles, responsibilities, and characteristics o f the physical therapy department chair as perceived by physical therapy unit administrators and teaching faculty in accredited, entry-level physical therapy programs. Method The research population consisted o f current administrators and teaching faculty who work at least half time in accredited physical therapist education programs. The data were analyzed utilizing descriptive statistics, chi-square analysis, and ANOVAs with post hoc tests where appropriate. Results The results o f this study indicate that physical therapy unit administrators tend to be older, more experienced, carry higher rank, and do less clinical practice than teaching faculty. Important roles o f the department chair tended to focus on faculty and department administration, whereas least important roles tended to focus on the student. The most important roles selected by administrators and teaching faculty included acting as faculty advocate to higher administration, preparing the physical therapy department budget, evaluating faculty performance to determine tenure and promotions, and monitoring accreditation standards. The least important roles that were common included helping students register, scheduling classes, maintaining accurate student records, and selecting students. Both administrators and teaching faculty agreed on the five most and least important characteristics o f a department chair. The most important were an ability to listen carefully and communicate effectively: an honest and trustworthy character: a creative, responsive, and personal interest in others: and a helpful and supportive concern for others. The results of the survey also suggested that faculty were less concerned whether the department chair followed the advice of others, became angry, was friendly and agreeable, always followed rules and procedures, or had a good sense of humor. Conclusions Unit administrators and teaching faculty shared a great deal of unanimity regarding the perceived importance of the roles, responsibilities, and characteristics of the department chair. Gender, years of experience, size o f the academic unit, and department chair selection do not affect the views regarding the importance of the department chair roles. Suggestions for further research include an expansion of this study to comprise university-level administrators or to investigate the perceptions of department chair job performance and satisfaction.

Authors:   ,   Andrews University, Scameheorn Denise
Published: May 2023

Problem. This study examined the relationship of selected cognitive and non-cognitive characteristics of community college students, particularly Aftican-American and Caucasian students, with self-concept, class attendance patterns, and GPA. Method. The subjects were 185 community college students. They completed the Non- Cognitive Questionnaire and the Learning and Study Strategies Inventory. Demographic data were obtained from the college student database. Instructors provided attendance and grade records. Results. 1. Student self-concept was related to age, academic background and skills, and selected learning and study strategies. 2. Student class attendance was related to family support, ethnicity, academic background and skills, and motivation. 3. Student GPA was related to family support, ethnicity, study environment, academic background and skills, and selected learning and study strategies. 4. African-American students were more likely than Caucasian students to have financial difficulties, transportation difficulties, less family support, and lower academic skills. These factors might explain lower levels of class attendance and lower GPA’s among African-American students. 5. Student success was related to having a good study environment, family support, good academic background and skills, an ability to deal with racism, a positive attitude, motivation, and selected learning and study strategies. Conclusions. The success of African-American students deviated from literature citations as follows: The variables in Tracey and Sedlacek’s Non-Cognitive Questionnaire did not predict academic success for the minority students in this sample.

Objective: Cognitive enhancement is a noninvasive brain treatment that has the potential to improve cognitive deficits in patients with symptoms of cognitive impairment, such as mild cognitive impairment. Studies have not investigated the effectiveness of this method on people’s quality of life; therefore, this study aims to investigate the effectiveness of cognitive enhancement on the quality of life (QoL) of the elderly with mild cognitive impairment. Methods: As a quasi-experimental study, the authors utilized the pre-test-post-test design with follow-up. The statistical population of the study was elderly with mild cognitive impairment. A total of 40 senior patients with cognitive abnormalities who were referred to the Rehabilitation Clinic of the Payambaran Hospital in Tehran City, Iran, were picked at random and assigned into an experimental and a control group. The experimental group underwent 12 sessions of cognitive enhancement. To measure the variables, the LEIPAD QoLquestionnaire was employed. The data were analyzed using the two-way repeated measures analysis of variance via the SPSS software, version 25. Results: In terms of the post-test quality of life, the results revealed a significant difference between the experimental and control groups. The QoLof the elderly with mild cognitive impairment was impacted by cognitive improvement. The follow-up studies also demonstrated that the observed disparities between the groups were persistent over time (P<0.05). Conclusion: In addition to affecting the cognitive abilities of the brain, cognitive enhancement can affect the QoLof the elderly with mild cognitive impairment.

The purpose of the study is to investigate what role the previous experience of authors and consumers of visual content plays in the representation and perception of visual images in social media.

Research methodology. Using the methods of analysis, synthesis, analogy, and abstraction, the article substantiates the role of experience and cognitive processes in visual communication in social media. The positive aspects and shortcomings of some approaches to the assessment of visual images are identified.

Results. Visual images are one of the most interesting and complex elements of modern culture. Images make it possible to overcome language and cultural, time and space barriers, to bring communication to a qualitatively new level. Despite the fact that various aspects of visual communication in general and visual images in particular are quite thoroughly presented in scientific opinion, the role of the experience of authors and consumers of visual content still needs theoretical and practical justification.

Novelty. One of the factors of visual communication in social media is the previous cognitive attitudes of its authors. The division of visual images into positive and negative does not allow using all the possibilities of this means of visual communication.

Practical significance. The results of the research can be used in the process of studying courses on visual communication and social media, with specialties «Journalism», «Advertising and Public Relations», «Information Affairs», as well as by media practitioners in the study of tools for shaping media reality.

Key words: visual images, social media, experience, cognitive attitudes, cognitive processes.
KATILIM BANKACILIĞI FAALİYETLERİNİN REEL İKTİSADİ FAALİYETLERE KATKI AÇISINDAN DEĞERLENDİRİLMESİ
Authors: HARUNOĞULLARI Erdal
Published: May 2023

İktisadi çalışmalarda bankacılık faaliyetlerinin önemli bir yeri bulunmaktadır. 20. yy. sonu itibariyle başlayan finansal krizler konvansiyonel finans sistemine olan güveni küresel ölçekte azaltmış ve finansal paradigma ile ilgili yeni arayışları başlatmıştır. 1950’lerden itibaren gelişen İslami finansal kuruluşların küresel krizlerde gösterdiği nispeten daha istikrarlı tablo İslami finansa olan ilgiyi artırmıştır. Türkiye’de katılım bankacılığı olarak bilinen bu tür finansal kuruluşlar gün geçtikçe bankacılık sektöründeki yerlerini pekiştirmektedir. Bu makalede İslami prensiplere göre çalışan katılım bankalarının bankacılık sektöründeki performansları analiz edilecek ve bankacılık faaliyetleri reel ekonomiye katkıları açısından değerlendirilecektir. Çalışmada, BDDK, TKBB ve IFSB kurumlarından elde edilen veriler karşılaştırılarak değerlendirilmiş ve finansal analiz yapılmıştır. Katılım bankaları reel iktisadi faaliyetlerde aracı olma konusunda önemli tecrübe ve birikime sahip kurumsal yapılardır. Ancak katılım bankalarının İslami prensiplere uyarak bankacılık faaliyetlerini yürütme konusunda başarılı bir tablo ortaya koydukları, bununla birlikte reel iktisadi faaliyetleri destekleme konusundaki potansiyeline ulaşamadığı ifade edilebilir.

Memahami Konsep Khiyar Sebagai Nilai Etika Bisnis Kontemporer
Authors: Samsuduha St , Ardi Ardi
Published: May 2023

This paper reviews the specific concept of khiyar as one of the values of business ethics as prescribed in Islam. A contemporary business that tends to be free must be filled with ideal concepts related to business ethics. The concept of khiyar in Islam is essential to understand the understanding of the Muslim generation who will enter the business world, which is currently carried out openly. This study concludes that business ethics is an essential moral foundation to be put forward in business. In it, many ideal principles are problematic for humans who apply them. The ideal principles include the values of independence, fairness, profit, and moral integrity. Islam strongly dictates doing a profitable business. Therefore, in Islamic law, the term khiyar is known, which regulates the rights of buyers and sellers in doing business. The term khiyar has become a specific source of encouraging contemporary business ethics because it is very pro-beneficial in business synergies.

Published: May 2023

A marriage dispensation is an exception or permission given to the applicant to marry in the Religious Court. This study employs a sampling technique due to the nature of the data, namely data on marriage dispensation requests at the Makassar Religious Court Class 1A in 2019 and 2020. The results of this study indicate that in accordance with Law Number 16 of 2019, article 7 paragraph (1), which is a revision of Law Number 1 of 1974, prospective brides who are not yet 19 years old must obtain a marriage dispensation. The most important condition for obtaining a marriage dispensation is a refusal from the Office of Religious Affairs (KUA) of the original model letter N9, which states that the bride and groom have not yet reached the age of 19. The average application before promulgation was 6.6667, while the average application after being enacted was 4.9167. However, because sig (2-tailed) > i.e., 0.226 > 0.05, the final conclusion of the research accepted by H0 is that there is no effect because there is no significant difference in the application for marriage dispensation between before and after Law Number 16 of 2019. Therefore, the implementation of Law No. 16 of 2019 at the Makassar Religious Court class 1A cannot be known in detail based on the results of a comparison of data before and after its stipulation, the results of which show no significant differences.

Ini karena kurangnya pengetahuan dan kepercayaan masyarakat kepada Pengadilan Agama dan sengketa ekonomi syariah masih dapat diselesaikan di luar Pengadilan Agama.Kata Kunci : Kompetensi Pengadilan Agama, Sengketa Ekonomi Syariah
Research and Modeling of Interior Temperature Regimes of City Electric Minibuses, which Use a Heating System with Thermal Batteries
Authors: Selegovskis Raimunds , Galins Janis , Galins Ainars
Published: May 2023

Electric buses running on city routes have different thermal conditions than long-distance intercity buses. The main difference is the frequent stops every 0.5–1 minutes and the embarkation and disembarkation of passengers, which causes heat loss. On the other hand, such routes offer the possibility to recharge heating batteries with contactless or non-contact wireless charging systems during stops. In order not to reduce the driving distance of the bus by consuming energy from electric batteries for heating, one option is to use heating batteries. As the total duration of routes from one final destination to another varies from half an hour to an hour depending on the city, but the duration of parking at the end destination is 10–15 minutes, heating batteries must provide cabin heating for one full journey using fast charging while standing at the final stops. This is the main condition for choosing the energy capacity of heating batteries. In the research there was developed and in the article there is described a simulation model in MATLAB/Simulink, which allows modelling different heating power and temperature regimes by varying the bus cabin microclimate influencing factors, such as outside temperature, door opening duration, the heat emitted by passengers, etc. Recommendations are given for levelling the temperature in the cabin, which, according to the measurement data, is markedly uneven.

6 Şubat 2023 tarihinde Kahramanmaraş’ta merkez üsleri Pazarcık ve Ekinözü’nde 7,8 ve 7,5 büyüklüğünde deprem gerçekleşmiştir. Kayıtlara göre 50 bini aşkın insan hayatını kaybetmiştir. Bu deprem farklı şehirlerde ve komşu ülkelerde de hissedilmiştir. Deprem alanlarında acilen çadır kentler kurulmaya çalışılmış ve depremzedelerin bir kısmı diğer şehirlere yerleştirilmiştir. Ayrıca depremin yıkıcı ve yaygın etkisi, depreme ve depremzedelere yönelik müdahaleleri zorlaştırmıştır. Deprem, can ve mal kaybı ile birlikte toplum sağlığı açısından da risklere yol açmıştır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, depremin psikososyal etkisinin incelenmesi ve depremzedelere yönelik müdahalelerin sürdürülebilirliğinin önemi üzerine bir gözlem araştırmasının gerçekleştirilmesidir. Araştırmanın yöntemi, gözlem tekniği ile derinlemesine inceleme yaparak mevcut durumu değerlendirmektir. Çalışma kapsamında Iğdır iline yerleştirilen aileler ziyaret edilerek gözlem gerçekleştirilmiştir. Araştırma kapsamında kayıt, görüşme, anket vb. bir iletişim gerçekleştirilmediği için etik kurul belgesine gerek duyulmamıştır. 30 aile gözleme dahil edilmiş olup bu gözlemle depremin ilk gününden itibaren medya ve sosyal medya üzerinden afetin psikososyal etkisi incelenmiştir. Çalışma sonucuna bakıldığında ilk olarak medya ve sosyal medyanın bilgi kirliliği, gösteriş reklam, depremzedeler üzerinden gerçekleştirilen istismar olmak üzere olumsuz etkisi; yardım kampanyaları ve ulaşım erişim bağlamında olumlu etkileri olduğu dikkat çekmiştir. İkinci bir sonuç ise yardım ve desteklerin ilk anda yoğun olması ve sonrasında azalması ile depremzedelerin mağduriyet yaşadığı ortaya çıkmıştır. Yine yapılan çalışmalarda da hem maddi hem sosyal desteklerin sürdürülebilir ve sağlıklı bir organizasyon temelinde gerçekleşmesinin önemine değinilmiştir. Üçüncü sonuç ise depremzedelerin ihtiyaçlarının kategorize edilmesi üzerinedir. Bu kapsamda depremzedelerin maddi, psikososyal ve kurumsal bilgi ihtiyaçları olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Desteklerin sürekli, sürdürülebilir ve organizasyonal temelde gerçekleşmesi ise çalışmanın temel önerisi olarak belirtilmiştir.

Purpose: The number of Korean midwifery licensing examination applicants has steadily decreased due to the low birth rate and lack of training institutions for midwives. This study aimed to evaluate the adequacy of the examination-based licensing system and the possibility of a training-based licensing system.Methods: A survey questionnaire was developed and dispatched to 230 professionals from December 28, 2022 to January 13, 2023, through an online form using Google Surveys. Descriptive statistics were used to analyze the results.Results: Responses from 217 persons (94.3%) were analyzed after excluding incomplete responses. Out of the 217 participants, 198 (91.2%) agreed with maintaining the current examination-based licensing system; 94 (43.3%) agreed with implementing a training-based licensing system to cover the examination costs due to the decreasing number of applicants; 132 (60.8%) agreed with establishing a midwifery education evaluation center for a training-based licensing system; 163 (75.1%) said that the quality of midwifery might be lowered if midwives were produced only by a training-based licensing system, and 197 (90.8%) said that the training of midwives as birth support personnel should be promoted in Korea.Conclusion: Favorable results were reported for the examination-based licensing system; however, if a training-based licensing system is implemented, it will be necessary to establish a midwifery education evaluation center to manage the quality of midwives. As the annual number of candidates for the Korean midwifery licensing examination has been approximately 10 in recent years, it is necessary to consider more actively granting midwifery licenses through a training-based licensing system.
