Published: June 2024

The aim of this research is to develop website-based teaching materials on the solar system for fifth grade elementary school students. This teaching material was developed as a learning resource in elementary science learning which was developed systematically and logically. The method in this research uses R&D by adapting the ADDIE development model with stages, namely: 1) Analysis, 2) Design, 3) Development, 4) Implementation, and 5) Evaluation. The location of this research was carried out at Emmaus Elementary School, Kediri Regency with a total of 25 test subjects. The data used to see the feasibility of the product that has been developed is product validity data, product practicality data, and product effectiveness data. The results of product validity tests carried out by material experts obtained an average value of 85%, while the validity results by design experts were 83%. The average product validity test result is 84% with valid criteria. The level of practicality and effectiveness of the teaching materials was carried out through extensive trials with the product practicality level obtaining an average score of 96% in the very practical category. Meanwhile, the results of the product effectiveness test can be seen from the comparison of the average value of classical student learning outcomes, namely 80 with a KKM of 75. Based on the comparison results, the average classical student learning outcomes are higher than the predetermined KKM, so the product can be declared effective for use in teaching. solar system material for fifth grade elementary school students.
Influence of Place Personality Over Residents Welcoming Tourists Through Self-Congruity and Place Attachment
Authors: Unurlu Çiğdem
Published: June 2024

This model targets to specify the welcoming attitudes of residents towards tourists through place personality, place attachment and self-congruity amidst Covid-19 Pandemic. A whole range of Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) was applied to the variables. Following the First Level Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA), the validity and reliability of the variables were evaluated. Then CFA, Structural Equation Modeling was performed with the remaining variables. Results show that the sincerity (21%) and excitement (32%) affect the residents’ welcoming attitude through selfcongruity and place attachment; and the competence (21%) directly affects the welcoming attitude. While place attachment (11%) directly affects the welcoming attitudes, self-congruity (53%) indirectly affects the welcoming attitudes. Also, selfcongruity affects the welcoming attitude through place attachment. Another significant result is the strong effect (45%) of self-congruity on place attachment. Some studies revealed locals adopted a negative attitude towards tourists during the pandemic while others indicated locals adopted positive attitudes towards tourists. Within this context this study, as addressing this controversial issue contribute to the development of more sustainable plans and policies by destination management organizations.
Investigation of Distance Education Processes of Students with Hard of Hearing in Inclusive Education Practices
Authors: Yazçayır Gülcihan , Ak Gamze
Published: June 2024

The aim of this study is to examine the experiences of students with hard of hearing (HH) in inclusive education practices, their teachers and parents regarding the distance education process. This research was designed with the phenomenological approach from qualitative research methods. The participants consisted of five secondary school students with HH studying at general education schools, their five parents, and ten teachers teaching students with HH. The data was collected in the 2021-2022 academic year through semi-structured interviews. In the study, it was determined that students with HH show reluctant and irregular participation in online courses. On the other hand, it was concluded that online courses were not adapted to the special needs of students and they did not get support special education services. All parents of students with HH were unable to participate in the distance education process. Distance education could be used in only support education or not at all unless it is necessary. The anxiety disorder, anger control problems and behavioural disorders brought on by adolescence increased with the decrease in socialisation in COVID-19-related closures.
La huelga de las molineras en el Veracruz de 1919: primera en la ciudad por demandas de género y el apoyo del grupo “Antorcha Libertaria” (Notas para recordar su olvido)
Authors: García Niño Arturo E.
Published: June 2024

En 1919 veinte trabajadoras de un molino de nixtamal en Veracruz, México, demandaron, me- diante emplazamiento a huelga, el reconocimiento de susindicato, la firma de un contrato colectivo de trabajo, aumento salarial y el cumplimiento de sus derechos laborales que en realidad eran de género. Susacciones fueron apoyadas y asesoradas por Herón Proal, Úrsulo Galván y Carlos Aubry, integrantes del grupo anarquista “Antorcha Libertaria”. De los hechos, inmersos en un conjunto de circunstancias económicas y políticas incidentes en ellos, del proceso genético del grupo ácrata y sus integrantes, de su feminismo expresado en las páginas de sus medios informativos, dan cuenta las líneas venideras que pretenden arrebatarle al olvido a esas mujeres y su acción colectiva. Con base en el relato se aventuran como interpretaciones principales que el movimiento de las molineras fue la primera acción feminista desde abajo (generada pormujeres trabajadoras y con demandas inherentes a sus condiciones de existencia como tales) en la ciudad; y que la posición feminista de “Antorcha Libertaria” se debió a su acracia igualitaria, corroborada en discursos y acciones posteriores.

La actividad de las mujeres en el comercio y el crédito rural en el sur peninsular (ss. xviii-xix)
Authors: García Gil Elizabeth
Published: June 2024

El tránsito del Antiguo al Nuevo Régimen fue un periodo clave que trajo consigo una serie de cambios socioeconómicos en los que las mujeres fueron partícipes. Los agentes financieros a menudo compartían el rol de prestamista y comerciante, por ello, en este trabajo nos hemos pro- puesto analizar la actividad de las mujeres en el comercio y el crédito en el sur peninsular. Hemos focalizado la atención en la provincia de Málaga, ya que su puerto y conexión con Indias y el resto de Europa facilitaron su participación en el ámbito de los negocios comerciales y financieros. Para llevar término nuestro cometido hemos consultado documentación comercial, notarial y jurídica, realizando análisis cuantitativos de los préstamos localizados y comparándolos con su contexto. Los resultados han mostrado una significativa participación de las mujeres en un ámbito que, de entrada, parecía estar vetado para ellas, llegando a presentar un caso donde una de ellas dominaba el mercado de crédito notarial en todo el partido judicial en el que operaba.

Exploring the Journey of Sociovirtualization: Understanding the Process of Socialization in a Virtual Context
Authors: Kurt Ibrahim
Published: June 2024

The phenomena of sociovirtualization, which encompasses the integration of socialization processes into virtual settings, is an important feature of modern human interaction in the digital age. This essay takes a detailed look at the sociovirtualization journey, with the goal of deepening our understanding of the various processes and ramifications of socializing in virtual environments. The essay begins by investigating the genesis and historical antecedents of sociovirtualization, then delineates its conceptual underpinnings and the elements driving its dynamics. The essay describes the varied nature of virtual socialization and its effects on individual behavior, community dynamics, and societal structures through a thorough study of the advantages, obstacles, and solutions for effective sociovirtualization. Furthermore, the paper discusses sociovirtualization's future views and ramifications, picturing a world in which digital technologies enable meaningful connections, build inclusive communities, and change the future of human interaction. By combining research findings and theoretical frameworks from several disciplines, this paper adds to a more nuanced understanding of sociovirtualization and lays the groundwork for future study and investigation in this emerging topic.
Discriminant validity of interval response formats: Investigating the dimensional structure of interval widths
Authors: Kloft Matthias , Heck Daniel W.
Published: June 2024

In psychological research, respondents are usually asked to answer questions with a single response value. A useful alternative are interval responses like the dual-range slider (DRS) where respondents provide an interval with a lower and an upper bound for each item. Interval responses may be used to measure psychological constructs such as variability in the domain of personality (e.g., self-ratings), uncertainty in estimation tasks (e.g., forecasting), and ambiguity in judgments (e.g., concerning the pragmatic use of verbal quantifiers). However, it is unclear whether respondents are sensitive to the requirements of a particular task and whether interval widths actually measure the constructs of interest. To test the discriminant validity of interval widths, we conducted a study in which respondents answered 92 items belonging to seven different tasks from the domains of personality, estimation, and judgment. We investigated the dimensional structure of interval widths by fitting exploratory and confirmatory factor models while using an appropriate multivariate-logit function to transform the bounded interval responses. The estimated factorial structure closely followed the theoretically assumed structure of the tasks, which varied in their degree of similarity. We did not find a strong overarching general factor, which speaks against a response style influencing interval widths across all tasks and domains. Overall, this indicates that respondents are sensitive to the requirements of different tasks and domains when using interval response formats.

Recent advances in policy, such as the Down Syndrome Act 2022, the Rare Diseases Framework 2021, and the Disability Action Plan 2024, provide hope for improved opportunities for people with these genetic syndromes and others who experience similar issues. The UK is a world leader in research. The high-quality studies on DS, FXS and WS are no exception; we have a better understanding of DS, FXS, WS than ever before. Research, when translated into practice, can be transformative to the daily lives of people with these genetic syndromes and others who experience similar issues, as well as those who support them. Yet, our communities are calling for funders and researchers to prioritise a more balanced portfolio of research, and that researchers share their advances in a way that enables research to have optimal impact. The aim of this report, funded by the Baily Thomas Charitable Fund and University of Surrey Higher Education and Innovation Fund (HEIF) allocation, is to document the current portfolio of research on DS, FXS, and WS, and to compare this with the priorities for research of individuals with DS, FXS, and WS (from children to adults), their families, practitioners, and researchers. We report key findings that are relevant to the broader learning disability communities, as well as findings specific to DS, FXS, and WS.
How to Capture Synchronization in Triads in One Single Measure: Development of the AMPC Measure and an Associated Significance Test
Authors: Wang Shiyao , Carlier Chiara , Verhees Martine Wilhelmina Francina Teresia , Ceulemans Eva
Published: June 2024

Interpersonal synchronization is a concept often studied in psychology, yet mostly in dyads, whereas systems can be larger (e.g., family triads of two caregivers and a child). However, a crucial challenge in taking a triadic view on synchronization is how to quantify it, since a statistical measure that captures the level of triadic synchronization in one value is lacking so far. The current paper therefore investigated three existing measures that show potential to capture triadic synchronization and proposes two novel ones. We also present a significance test that allows to investigate whether the observed triadic synchronization in a triad is stronger than can be expected by chance, while accounting for potential auto-dependence in the data. By means of a simulation study, we tested 1) how the measures react to different potential synchronization patterns; 2) the Type I error rate and the power of the significance test. The results showed that only one measure, i.e., the newly proposed adapted multiplication of pairwise correlations (AMPC), can effectively capture triadic synchronization, while discarding dyadic synchronization. We then applied the AMPC measure to intensive longitudinal data on attachment-related measures in families, showing that AMPC can detect meaningful triadic synchronization in empirical data.

Stability Challenges and Remedial Practices in Himalayan Hydro-power Tunnels – A Review
Authors: Katuwal Tek Bahadur , Panthi Krishna Kanta
Published: June 2024

The instability in tunnels is mainly affected by geological anomalies, rock mass quality, complex geological structures, active tectonics, and stress anisotropy. This review article presents challenges associated with stability and applied remedial measures prevailing in hydropower tunnels in the Himalayas. The review covers nine hydropower tunnels located in different parts of the Himalayas. The review found that rock bursting/spalling frequently occurs when the tunnel passes through a high overburden with good rock mass quality. On the other hand, plastic deformation (squeezing) occurs when a tunnel passes through the weak and schistose rock mass. It has been found through the review that the tunnel crew was able to successfully solve instability challenges. Effective planning, design, and selection of appropriate construction techniques help to complete tunneling projects in the Himalayas.

Published: June 2024

In the routine of small animal veterinary clinics, the ingestion of foreign bodies, such as pieces of fabric, shoelaces, ropes, balls, bones and toothpicks, is common. Depending on the case and the amount ingested, they may pass normally in the feces or may require surgical intervention to remove. Symptoms can be broad, mainly including the occurrence of vomiting, lack of appetite and apathy. For the correct diagnosis of the disease, a combination of factors such as anamnesis, symptoms and the results of complementary tests such as radiography and ultrasound, must be taken into account. This work aims to report a case of a linear foreign body removed by gastrotomy in a dog.
MILITANT LACTIVISM?
Authors: Faircloth Charlotte
Published: June 2024

Following networks of mothers in London and Paris, the author profiles the narratives of women who breastfeed their children to full term, typically a period of several years, as part of an 'attachment parenting' philosophy. These mothers talk about their decision to continue breastfeeding as 'the natural thing to do': 'evolutionarily appropriate', 'scientifically best' and 'what feels right in their hearts'. Through a theoretical focus on knowledge claims and accountability, the author frames these accounts within a wider context of 'intensive parenting', arguing that parenting practices – infant feeding in particular – have become a highly moralized affair for mothers, practices which they feel are a critical aspect of their 'identity work'. The book investigates why, how and with what implications some of these mothers describe themselves as 'militant lactivists' and reflects on wider parenting culture in the UK and France. Discussing gender, feminism and activism, this study contributes to kinship and family studies by exploring how relatedness is enacted in conjunction to constructions of the self.
COMMUNITIES OF COMPLICITY
Authors: Steinmüller Hans
Published: June 2024

Everyday life in contemporary rural China is characterized by an increased sense of moral challenge and uncertainty. Ordinary people often find themselves caught between the moral frameworks of capitalism, Maoism and the Chinese tradition. This ethnographic study of the village of Zhongba (in Hubei Province, central China) is an attempt to grasp the ethical reflexivity of everyday life in rural China. Drawing on descriptions of village life, interspersed with targeted theoretical analyses, the author examines how ordinary people construct their own senses of their lives and their futures in everyday activities: building houses, working, celebrating marriages and funerals, gambling and dealing with local government. The villagers confront moral uncertainty; they creatively harmonize public discourse and local practice; and sometimes they resolve incoherence and unease through the use of irony. In so doing, they perform everyday ethics and re-create transient moral communities at a time of massive social dislocation.

Specific changes in contractive functions and skeletal muscle architecture in humans in response to the use of two protocols of unmodulated neuro-muscular electrostimulation
Authors: Koryak Yu. A.
Published: June 2024

The purpose of this study was to study the effect of unmodulated low-frequency superficial of neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) of 30 and 60 min/day for 7 weeks on the force, velocity-strength properties of the triceps surae muscle (TS) and architecture (lengths and angles of fascicles) of human the medial gastrocnemius muscle (MG). Many studies have examined the effect of training intensity (percentage of maximal voluntary isometric contraction — MVC) during NMES on muscle force response. However, no study has examined the effect of the number of NMES sessions per day over 7 weeks on changes in the TS strength. Ten healthy volunteers (23.2 ± 3.2 years; age range 18–28 years) volunteered for the study and were randomly assigned to group 1 (30 min NMES) and group 2 (60 min NMES) 5 times a day. NMES for a 7-week period, a total of 35 NMES workouts Isometric triceps calf strength was recorded with a Biodex isokinetic dynamometer. The longitudinal ultrasonic images of the MG was measured in vivo using the B-mode Edge ultrasound system. After a 7-week training period, MVC and voluntary maximal “explosive” strength differed significantly between groups. Based on electrical stimulation parameters and healthy subjects in this study, electrical training caused an increase in foot extensor muscle strength and a gradient in voluntary explosive strength when used for 5 training per week for 30 min for 7 weeks.
Influence of 21-day antiortostatic hypokinesia on the functional state of the musculoskeletal system of human

Published: June 2024

The influence of antiorthostatic hypokinesia with an inclination angle relative to the horizon of -6 degrees for 21 days was used as a ground model of the physiological effects of weightlessness. 10 practically healthy male volunteers (30.7 ± 5.4 years, 78.0 ± 8.5 kg, 179.7 ± 5.3 cm) took part in the experimental study, who successfully passed the medical expert commission of the SSC RF-IMBP RAS, familiarized with the study program and signed a voluntary informed consent to participate in the study. The state of the musculoskeletal system was assessed according to the results of speed-strength testing on an isokinetic dynamometer before hypokinesia and on the 3rd day after its completion. Staying in conditions of 21-day anti-orthostatic hypokinesia with a body inclination angle of –6° relative to the horizon, as a model of the physiological effects of weightlessness, leads to changes in the functional state of the musculoskeletal lower limbs which manifests itself during speed-strength testing after hypokinesia by a decrease in maximum voluntary force (MPF) of the knee joint extensor muscles from 9 to 15% compared with the base level. The decrease in MPF did not depend on a change in the force gradient, which reflects the ability to exert greater force in the shortest possible time. This indicated that the decrease in the MPF level after hypokinesia was mainly due to a change in the activity of slow motor units. At the same time, we assume that exposure to hypokinesia did not cause a significant change in the activity of fast motor units. This is confirmed by the results of the analysis of the electromyographic activity of the extensor muscles of the knee joint during testing on an isokinetic dynamometer. Also, after hypokinesia, the possibility of using muscle potential significantly decreased - the physiological cost of work increased with a decrease in strength indicators.

Published: June 2024

The article presents the results of assessing the features of heart rate variability in children of senior preschool age (4-6 years old) who are engaged in contrast hardening according to a specially developed technique (Fisher T.A., Kolyvanova S.S., Dremina E.L., patent RU2744024C2, 9.07.2019) in a preschool educational institution. Significantly higher statistical indicators evaluating the overall autonomic tone (SDNN, RMSSD, рNN50, CV) were revealed in children involved in contrast hardening compared to the control group. Evaluation of statistical, spectral parameters of heart rate variability in the hardening group indicated the predominance of parasympathetic influences on heart rate and a shift in the autonomic balance towards parasympathicotonia. This was expressed in a significant decrease in VPR, an increase in high-frequency (HF) indicators and a decrease in the LF/HF index in children of the hardening group compared with the control.

Published: June 2024

У статті здійснено аналіз стратегічних пріоритетів інтегрованого просторового розвитку на основі активізації агломераційних процесів. Описано ключові проблеми, що стримують соціально-економічний розвиток регіонів і держави загалом, а також послаблюють  інтегрованість регіональних просторів у загальноукраїнський.
Доведено, що основними напрямами формування інтегрованого економічного простору України в умовах нестабільності (в умовах воєнного стану та післявоєнного відновлення) є: подолання економічних диспропорцій просторового розвитку на основі когерентності та компліментарності рішень на різних рівнях управління; обґрунтування підходів та механізмів стимулювання просторово інтегрованого економічного розвитку України; уточнення та розробка нових пріоритетів смарт-спеціалізації територій на основі пріоритетів просторово інтегрованого економічного розвитку громад, регіонів та країни у період війни та повоєнного відновлення; обґрунтування ефективних форм просторової інтеграції в соціально-економічному аспекті, враховуючи як територіально-орієнтований (функціональні типи територій), так і безпековий (рівень відносної безпеки щодо воєнних ризиків – наближеність до зони бойових дій під час війни, наближеність до кордону з країною-агресором у повоєнний період) підходи.
Акцентовано на важливості агломерацій в процесі інтеграції просторового розвитку, зважаючи на її потенціал щодо синхронізованого розвитку суміжних територіальних громад. Наголошено важливості та актуальності: (1) створення та використання в межах агломерації спільної системи планування території, економічного розвитку, культури та туризму, організації громадського транспорту, охорони громадського порядку, системи комунальної інфраструктури (водопостачання, каналізації, поводження з відходами); (2) наукового обґрунтування механізмів застосування когерентного підходу розробки стратегій територіальних громад, комплексних планів їх просторового розвитку і власне Стратегії розвитку агломерації; (3) узгодження стратегічного і просторового планування.
¿ Arquitecturas Modernas?.
Authors: Salcedo Sanchez Esteban
Published: June 2024

At the School of Architecture of Madrid in the late 1960s, the end of the modern quest had been reached, and the beginning of the 1970s saw important structural and epistemological changes that were not free of tensions. The intellectual differences between generations led to a dialectical querelle between the organicism advocated by New Form and an emerging post-modernism that was linked to "Nueva Figuración".
This transition in the School of Madrid found in drawing a generational binder and a way of vindicating everything that architecture had to offer in terms of artistic, cultural and humanistic practice. On the threshold of transformation, "Arquitecturas Modernas" appeared, an exhibition held in 1980 which extended the scope of the School to the Ynguanzo gallery, promoting the notion of drawings as autonomous objects and the nature of architecture, beyond the constructed building, as a cultural practice.

The article presents the diagnostic results on surface-hardened industrial concrete floors. Selected examples of floors showcased premature damage to surface layers, characterized by intense dusting, delamination, and local spalling, while the structural system remained unaffected. Quantitative petrographic analysis of concrete was applied to core specimens from the floors, involving the examination of digital images from a polarizing optical microscope and a scanning electron microscope. The hardening compound and powdered specimens of the cement matrix were characterized using differential thermal analysis and X-ray diffraction. A multiple microindentation method was employed to assess local variations in mechanical properties. Concrete cross-section analysis revealed areas with a non-uniform distribution of air voids, identified regions exhibiting increased porosity, highlighted areas of cracking in the concrete, indicated local variability in the phase composition of cement hydration products, and pointed out the presence of carbonated areas. The causes of the damage were discussed based on these findings,. The crucial role of quantitative petrographic analysis in diagnosing premature surface damage to industrial floors was demonstrated.
Speech-language pathologists’ experience with nursing initiated texture modified diets in health care settings

BACKGROUND: Texture modified diets (TMDs) are among the most widely used compensatory measures for managing dysphagia. TMDs are associated with significant risks involving nutrition, hydration, and quality of life. Speech-language pathologists (SLPs) are trained to evaluate and treat people with dysphagia and to assess client-specific appropriateness of TMDs. However, patients are regularly placed on TMDs by nursing staff without formal training in dysphagia and without SLP consult (Gurevich et al., 2021). OBJECTIVE: This study explores the experience of SLPs in health care with respect to such nursing initiated TMDs with the goal of assessing the prevalence of this practice. METHOD: SLP students, clinical fellows, and practicing clinicians (N = 503) were surveyed regarding their exposure to the nursing initiated TMD practice. RESULTS: Overall, 78.9% of respondents have directly encountered the nursing initiated TMD practice, with an additional 10% having heard of it. The group most susceptible to this practice, the certified clinicians who work with dysphagia alongside nurses (n = 461), had a higher rate of directly encountering this practice (82.2%). Among these, the early career clinicians (n = 104) had an even higher direct encounter rate at 87.5%. CONCLUSIONS: Findings show that nursing initiated TMDs are pervasive in United States (U.S.) health care, and SLPs are shown to regularly face this issue in their work settings as soon as they enter the workforce. Given negative outcomes associated with TMDs, patient care would be best served if decisions to implement TMDs were made by personnel with training in dysphagia.

The growing need for sustainable and clean energy solutions has elevated photovoltaic (PV) systems to the forefront of competitive options. In order to evaluate the performance and viability of single-stage and dual-stage single-phase PV voltage source inverter systems within the context of renewable energy, this study undertakes a thorough comparative analysis. MATLAB Simulink has been used to run the simulations, and the results produced show that the selected configurations are robust and closely match theoretical expectations. The study explores the subtle distinctions, benefits, and drawbacks that come with single- and dual-stage systems. By extensively evaluating the consequences on system stability, grid synchronisation, and power quality, useful insights emerge. The simplicity and efficiency of the single-stage system are demonstrated by the direct connectivity between the PV MPPT output and the inverter. In contrast, the dual-stage system addresses the issue of low PV output voltage by incorporating a boost converter with an MPPT algorithm, albeit at the expense of more parts and complexity. The research described here adds a great deal to the current discussion on PV system optimization. The study notably clarifies methods for improving dependability and efficiency in applications involving renewable energy. With the increasing worldwide trend towards sustainable energy, it is critical to comprehend the subtle dynamics of various PV setups. In addition to offering a comprehensive grasp of the complexities involved in single- and dual-stage single-phase PV voltage source inverter systems, this research paves the way for future developments in the planning and execution of effective renewable energy solutions especially for Asian nations that still rely on coal-based power plants. Increased contribution of solar based electricity generation will lead to a significant drop in pollution contributed by the ash and gases released by thermal power plants that employ fossil fuels. The ultimate goal of this study is to provide information to stakeholders in the renewable energy industry so that they may make more informed decisions and create PV systems that are both sustainable for the environment and efficient for the utility.
