PEMAKNAAN DAN RESEPSI FUNGSIONAL TRADISI RUTINITAS IDUL FITRI: STUDI LIVING QUR’AN MENGUNJUNGI RUMAH DAN MAKAM ULAMA’ DI DESA KOTO PADANG
Authors: Mandala Ican , Admizal Iril
Published: October 2024

Abstrak: Kemampuan masyarakat Islam dalam memahami al-Qur’an dan Hadist telah memunculkan berbagai bentuk pemahaman dengan ragam praktik. Respon masyarakat dalam suatu wilayah terhadap praktik agama seringkali membudaya hingga menjadi tradisi masyarakat. Seperti pemahaman terhadap teks al-Qur’an dan Hadist mengenai penyambutan serta pelaksanaan amalan pada hari kemenangan umat Islam (Idul Fitri). Melaksnakan shalat, mendengarkan khutbah, ziarah kubur, silaturahmi dan lainnya menghiasi hari Idul Fitri di berbagai penjuru Indonesia. Praktik pemaknaan hari Idul Fitri di Desa Koto Padang menjadi perhatian khusus dalam penelitian ini, sebab sebelum pelaksanaan shalat Idul fitri terdapat suatu tradisi penghormatan terhadap ulama terdahulu yang memiliki kontribusi besar dalam perkembangan Ilmu agama Islam di wilayah ini. Bentuk sikap menghormati dan mengenang ulama tersebut di aktualisasikan masyarakat dalam praktik mengunjungi dan melaksanakan shalat sunnah di rumah ulama tersebut. Kemudian dilanjutkan dengan berdo’a atau ziarah di pemakaman ulama yang bernama Syekh Haji Ismail tersebut. Menariknya, tradisi ini tidak dilakukan secara individu. Melainkan dilakukan oleh jama’ah dan petugas shalat Idul Fitri. Secara pemahaman masyarakat setempat, fenomena ini merupakan bentuk dari pemaknaan terhadap al-Qur'an dan Hadist yang direalisasikan dalam bentuk praktik. Dalam menganalisis fenomena pada penelitian ini menggunakan jenis penelitian lapangan (field research) dengan metode kualitatif model pendekatan living Qur’an dan fenomenologi. Dengan melakukan observasi, wawancara dan dokumentasi sebagai teknik pengumpulan data. Tujuan dari penelitian ini yakni suatu upaya mengungkapkan resepsi masyarakat dan keterkaitan tradisi ini terhadap pemaknaan ayat tertentu sebagai landasan dalam pelaksanaan tradisi rutinitas ini. Pemaknaan masyarakat terhadap tradisi ini memiliki nilai fungsional dan spiritual yang meliputi tindakan menghormati ulama, tawassul, silaturahmi, dan intropeksi diri (mengingat kematian)

This article elaborates and analyzes the meaning of the predictive Hadith about Handing over affairs to non-experts, then criticizes its authenticity and analyzes its content and implementation in the present context. The method used is the tahli>li method and textual, intertextual, and contextual interpretation techniques with a multidisciplinary approach. Before criticizing the authenticity of the Hadith based on the rules of hadith validity, first, perform takhri>j al-hadi>s\ by using the keyword d} uyi'at al-ama>nat. After recognizing the quality of the traditions traced in this study as sahih traditions, a study of ma'a>ni> al-hadith followed. The results show that the Prophetic tradition is of sahih quality. This study shows that the predictive hadith "Handing over affairs to non-experts is a sign of the end of the world," narrated by Ahmad ibn Hanbal, in terms of quantity, is classified as a garīb hadith because the narrator's line from the level of the companion (a'lā) to the fourth level of the narrator is single. Regarding the quality of the sanad and matan, it is classified as a hasan hadith because one of the narrators, Fulaih, based on the conclusion of the assessment of the hadith critics, was not d}a>bit}. However, due to the existence of al-Bukhari's chain of transmission, the Hadith rises to the level of sahih ligairih. Thus, the Hadith has legal authority to be used as an argument (hujjah).

MOBILISASI SUARA: PENGARUH AGAMA DALAM PRAKTIK VOTE BUYING DI PILKADA (STUDI DI KABUPATEN BONE BOLANGO)
Authors: Yasin Hendra
Published: October 2024

Vote buying atau jual beli suara menjadi salah satu fenomena pelanggaran pemilu yang marak mewarnai demokrasi elektoral di Indonesia. Meskipun praktik yang mencederai sistem demokrasi ini banyak ditentang, namun tidak serta-merta menjadikan vote buying sirna dari polemik pemilihan umum di negeri ini. Penelitian yang menggunakan metode survei ini, akan mengungkap hasil mobilisasi suara melalui praktik vote buying di masyarakat dan apakah nilai-nilai moral agama memiliki peran yang signifikan yang dapat mempengaruhi hasil keputusan pemilih terlebih pada Pemilihan Kepada Daerah (Pilkada) di Kabupaten Bone Bolango. Data kuanitatif penelitian ini diperoleh dari hasil survei dengan sejumlah responden yang diwawancara menggunakan daftar kuesioner yang telah disusun secara sistematis yang hasilya kemudian diramu menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan menyeret teori patron-client milik James Scott. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukan mayoritas masyarakat Bone Bolango paham akan ilegalnya praktik vote buying, namun tidak serta-merta menjadikan praktik yang demikian ditolak dalam pemilihan umum di daerah tersebut. Kondisi sosial ekonomi daerah juga tampaknya turut mengambil peran penting pada keputusan masyarakat dalam menerima atau menolak praktik politik uang yang ada. Namun, nilai-nilai agama yang melekat dalam diri individu nyatanya tidak mampu mempengaruhi masyarakat untuk menolak ajakan vote buying.
Building stronger bridges between equity and evidence in higher education
Authors:   Australian Centre for Student Equity and Success, Vermillion Peirce Patricia
Published: October 2024

Innovation and evidence are two pillars of progress in higher education, particularly as institutions and policymakers strive for equitable outcomes. Recent policy shifts in Australia, such as the Australian Universities Accord, have intensified the focus on equity. However, without sufficient evidence, the pursuit towards improvement can lead to inefficiencies and compound existing shortcomings. This article examines the challenges and opportunities to understanding the impact of equity-focused initiatives in higher education. It discusses the role of experimental and theory-based approaches in impact evaluation, the importance of integrating evaluation practices into innovation, and the potential for broader collaboration to build an evidence base that supports effective change.

The relevance of the study lies in the consideration and correction of the results of calculations of the single-phase short circuit current in a rural 0.4 kV electric network obtained using existing physical, computer and mathematical methods that give different results. Purpose. Development of correction coefficients for different methods of calculating the single-phase short circuit current in a rural 0.4 kV electrical network. Materials and research methods. During the calculations of the single-phase short circuit current in the 0.4 kV rural electric grid, using different methods, general initial conditions were set: power was supplied from a TM-250 transformer and using A-35 wire. Results. It was revealed that the error between the results obtained using different methods reaches 35.9%. In the work, correction coefficients with values from 0.93 to 1.47 relative units were proposed in order to increase the reliability of calculations. These coefficients made it possible to increase the reliability of the considered methods for determining the current of a single-phase short circuit in a rural 0.4 kV electrical network by 2.9-6.1 times compared with the initial values.
Relevansi Etika Politik Peter L. Berger bagi Pembangunan Pariwisata di Indonesia
Authors: Bernardus Badj
Published: October 2024

This paper aims to discuss the relevance of the political ethics of Peter L. Berger's development to the development and development of tourism in Indonesia in general and NTT in particular in Labuan Bajo, West Manggarai. The development and development of tourism in Indonesia aims to increase the quality and quantity of tourism destinations and create a tourism industry capable of driving the national economy. This has been carried out properly according to its purpose. However, there are several tourism developments in NTT which in the end only give rise to domination, resource grabbing, marginalization, subordination, exploitation and violence in its various forms. Peter L. Berger through his book Pyramid of Sacrifice, suggests a moral dimension, namely the problem of costs that may exist in political policies. A politician must take into account the consequences of his actions for others, especially cost considerations, namely the calculus of pain and the calculus of meaning. It is interesting that tourism development also creates a new context for the work of the Catholic church's pastoral ministry. Therefore, the Catholic church is required to actively participate in directing tourism development in order to ensure that all people can access and enjoy prosperity and justice together. The method used in this paper is the method of literature and the contribution of this paper to the welfare of the nation and state in all dimensions of life.
Politics and Technology
Authors: Jehalut Ferdi
Published: October 2024

This study aims to explain the relationship between politics and technology by specifically discussing how the Internet supports and hinders democracy. This conceptual elaboration was prompted by recent controversies about the democratic power of the Internet. The controversy is framed in three perspectives, namely the perspective of utopia, dystopia, and syntopia. By using a qualitative approach and constructivist paradigm as well as literature studies, this paper argues that the three perspectives are reductionist and simplistic. Based on their technological determinism approach, they ignore subject agency and socio-cultural context in framing the relationship between the Internet and democracy. This paper offers holistic reading that the success and failure of technology adoption in democratic practice is a product of the organic interaction between technology and subject agency as well as social, political, and cultural contexts.
The Jurassic Park and Ata Modo in Eastern Indonesia
Authors: Komar Christina Mega Putri
Published: October 2024

Famous for its distinctive Komodo dragons (Varanus Komodoensis) and features home to underwater ecosystems, the Komodo National Park (KNP) has become a prominent and favorite destination of visitors locally and globally in recent years. Situated in Labuan Bajo, East Nusa Tenggara Province, Indonesia, KNP has three prime islands: Rinca, Komodo, and Padar.
The infrastructure development in KNP formulated in 2020 by the central government of Indonesia, including establishing offices, photograph areas, clinics, warehouses, public spaces, and tour guides' offices, raises controversy about this decision. While the government of Indonesia persuaded citizens that this erection was a conservation effort for protection, preservation, and utilization, UNESCO refused this plan by enacting a refusal document and assessing whether the development could affect the property's Outstanding Universal Value (OUV) before the review of the relevant environmental impact analysis by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN). Additionally, the local people argue this plan will threaten the giant lizard's habitat regarding the entry of heavy equipment and disadvantage local tourism actors.
Using a systematic literature review method, this piece collects and discovers a different concept in the issue of infrastructure development in KNP instead of another scholar's perspective. Walpole and Goodwin (2000) find that economics and facilities are the prominent aspects of tourism, while UNESCO considers the environment in development.
In contrast to popular belief, this paper indicates a significant role of local people, known as Ata Modo, in the KNP establishment. This paper's findings propose that Ata Modo, as local people/tribes in KNP, should not be relocated from their area and instead be involved in the decision-making process. The bottom-up approach can be executed as a practice in a democratic process. From the fiscal approach, this development will positively impact local people's economy through collaboration and stakeholder participation.

CXCR3-Flavonoid Interaction: A Novel Therapeutic Approach in Cancer Immunotherapy
Authors: Güngör Hatice , Demirag A. Demet
Published: October 2024

Objective: To investigate the interactions between select flavonoids (Luteolin, Quercetin, Apigenin, Kaempferol, and Amorphine) and the CXCR3 receptor, evaluating their potential as novel therapeutic agents in cancer immunotherapy.

Methods: Molecular docking simulations were employed to analyze flavonoid-CXCR3 receptor interactions. Comprehensive in silico ADMET analyses were conducted to assess pharmacokinetic properties and toxicity profiles of the compounds.

Results: Flavonoids exhibited high-affinity binding to the CXCR3 receptor, with binding affinities ranging from -8.7 to -13.0 kcal/mol. Amorphine demonstrated the highest binding affinity (-13.0 kcal/mol), indicating superior inhibition potential. Luteolin showed optimal ADME characteristics, including favorable oral bioavailability (62%) and blood-brain barrier permeability (log BB -1.911). Molecular docking analyses identified critical amino acid residues (TYR205, TYR308, TRP109, PHE131, and ASN132) in flavonoid-CXCR3 interactions. In silico toxicity predictions suggested low risk profiles for all examined flavonoids.

Conclusion: This study provides evidence for the potential of flavonoids as CXCR3 receptor antagonists in cancer immunotherapy. The elucidated molecular interactions and favorable ADMET profiles warrant further investigation of these compounds. Future research should focus on optimization of flavonoid-based CXCR3 inhibitors, preclinical and clinical evaluations, and assessment of their immunomodulatory effects within the tumor microenvironment. These findings contribute to the development of novel, flavonoid-derived therapeutic strategies in cancer treatment.

Published: October 2024

In this study, the effects of 3 different doses (430, 600 and 670 ppm) of intermittent CO2 applications on the feeding behaviors of Nezara viridula L. (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae) Adults were determined. As nutritional behavior, the total nutrition duration of adult male and female individuals other than nutrients was examined. As a result of the study, no statistically significant difference was found between the total feeding times of female and male individuals of N. viridula. A statistically significant difference was found between the duration of stay on the nutrients of female and male individuals of N. viridula who received 600 ppm and 670 ppm doses of CO2. The duration of stay on the nutrients of male individuals who received 600 ppm and 670 ppm doses of CO2 was found to be significantly lower than the duration of stay on the nutrients of female individuals. The duration of stay on the nutrients of male individuals who received 670 ppm doses of CO2 was found to be significantly lower than the duration of stay on the nutrients of female individuals. No statistically significant difference was found between the CO2 dose groups of N. viridula and the total feeding times of the control group. A statistically significant difference was found between the CO2 dose groups of N. viridula and the duration of stay apart from the nutrients and the duration of stay on the nutrients of the control group. The duration of stay on the nutrients of individuals exposed to 600 and 670 ppm CO2 doses was found to be significantly lower than the duration of stay on the nutrients of individuals in the control group. In addition, the duration of stay apart from the nutrients of the individuals to whom 600 and 670 ppm CO2 doses were applied was found to be significantly higher than the duration of stay apart from the nutrients of the individuals in the control group. As a general result of this study, it was determined that as the application dose increased, the feeding behaviors of male and female individuals changed, male individuals reacted more to dose administration and remained on nutrients less than female individuals.
Leveling Up: An Academic Acceleration Policy to Increase Equity in Advanced High School Course Taking
Authors: Austin Megan , Backes Ben , Goldhaber Dan , Li Dory , Streich Francie
Published: October 2024

Taking advanced courses in high school predicts many positive outcomes, yet low-income students and students who identify as Black and Hispanic are underrepresented. Policies such as “algebra for all” that accelerate middle school students into advanced courses are well-studied, but little is known about newer academic acceleration policies that target older students. Between 2014–2015 and 2016–2017, 72 districts in Washington implemented Academic Acceleration policies, which identified proficient 11th- and 12th-grade students for automatic acceleration into AP, IB, and other dual credit courses. We used difference-in-differences models to examine changes in advanced course enrollments, GPAs, and high school graduation between districts that began implementing the policy at different times. We found advanced course enrollment increased and became more equitable postpolicy.
Yield Factors of Additional Tier 1 Bonds
Authors:   HSE University, Moscow, Russian Federation, Makushkin M. S.
Published: October 2024

Additional Tier 1 bonds (AT1 bonds) are hybrid financial instruments issued by banks under Basel III. In case of a threat to the financial stability of an institution, these bonds can be converted into equity or written down to help the bank meet capital requirements. AT1 bonds are designed to insure a bank against a potential capital shortfall and minimize the need for a regulatory bail-out. AT1 bonds gained new attention after the collapse of Credit Suisse (CS), when all outstanding AT1 bonds issued by the bank were written down to zero. This paper provides an overview of AT1 capital, compares the main types of AT1 bonds and describes their most common features. In addition, it quantifies the risk premium in AT1 bond yields and identifies the main factors underlying this premium. The analysis is supported by real data on AT1 issuance in Europe. It is shown that in the primary market investors demand a significant premium from banks for the additional risk embedded in AT1 bonds. The size of the premium depends mostly on issuer-specific factors such as issuer’s credit risk, capital ratio, stock volatility and asset size. On the contrary, security design turns out to be a less important pricing factor. The author compares the results before and after the CS crash and concludes that the CS AT1 write-down did not directly affect the pricing principles in the market. The results of the research may be useful both for investors looking for yield pickup in financial sector and for banks working on the optimal design for their AT1 bonds.
ІНДИВІДУАЛЬНА ІНТЕЛЕКТУАЛЬНА МОБІЛЬНІСТЬ У ПРОФЕСІЙНІЙ САМОРЕАЛІЗАЦІЇ ВИКЛАДАЧА ТА КОРПОРАТИВНІЙ КУЛЬТУРІ ЗАКЛАДУ ВИЩОЇ ОСВІТИ
Authors: Тернавская Татьяна
Published: October 2024

У статті презентовано аналіз актуальних підходів до формування індивідуальної інтелектуальної мобільності викладача закладу вищої освіти. Індивідуальна інтелектуальна мобільність розглядається з позиції подолання особистістю внутрішніх бар’єрів, що дасть поштовх до самореалізації викладача та корпоративної культури закладу вищої освіти. Зазначено, що самореалізація викладача, його індивідуальна інтелектуальна мобільність та корпоративна культура закладу вищої освіти є трьома важливими компонентами для реалізації успішного, якісного та гармонійного освітнього процесу. Інтелектуальна мобільність формується і розвивається у процесі практичної, освітньої, соціальної, культурної діяльності людини, що сприяє реалізації творчого потенціалу та здібностей. Інтелектуальна мобільність викладача передбачає набуття професійних компетентностей, бути самокритичним, моделювати та модифікувати свою професійну та особистісну траєкторії із навичками адаптуватися відповідно до мінливих умов сьогодення. Індивідуальна інтелектуальна мобільність сучасного викладача має корелювати з її професіоналізмом, освіченістю, гуміністичними якостями, емпатією, об’єктивною амбітністю та кар’єрним ростом. Наголошено, що наслідки соціального сходження або падіння особистості відображають рівень адаптативних навичок та гнучкість когнітивних здібностей, віддзеркалюють рівень сформованості індивідуальної інтелектуальної мобільності, що безпосередньо корелює із напрямками професійної самореалізації. Узагальнено, що для успішної професійної самореалізації, індивідуальна інтелектуальна мобільність викладача закладу вищої освіти уособлює характеристику особистості, яка є професійною, гнучкою, креативною, здатною робити вибір і самовдосконалюватись у сприятливому колективі однодумців із дотриманням етичних засад корпоративної культури.
Mukâtil b. Süleymân Tefsirinde Sa‘îd b. Cübeyr Rivâyetleri (Atâ b. Dînâr Özelinde)
Authors: Aydemir Mehmet
Published: October 2024

İnsanlara rahmet olarak indirilen Kur’ân’ı Kerim nâzil olduğu günden günümüze değin farklı şekillerde yo-rumlanmıştır. Tâbiîn ve tebeu’t-tâbiîn dönemi alimleri de bu tefsir faaliyetinden uzak kalmamış, Kur’ân’ı sahabeden öğrendikleri yorumlarla tefsir etmeye çalışmışlar ya da onların yorumlarını yazılı veya sözlü bir şekilde günümüze ulaşmasında köprü görevi görmüşlerdir. Araştırmamamın da üzerinde durduğu temel problem tebeu’t-tâbiîn döneminden günümüze ulaşan ilk tam tefsir olan Mukâtil b. Süleymân tefsirinin isnadsız bir şekilde telif edilmesi; buna bağlı olarak alimlerin kahir ekseriyetinin bu tefsire, tefsir değil de hadis eseriymiş gibi muamele yapmalarıdır. Bu sebeplerle alimler, bu tefsiri ilk dönem tefsir rivâyetlerinin nakil yöntemlerini dikkate almadan incelemiş ve bunun neticesinde Mukâtil’in tefsirini uydurma rivâyetlerle oluşturduğunu iddia etmişlerdir. Mukâtil tefsirinin giriş kısmında tefsirini oluştururken kullandığı 30 kaynak-tan bahsetmektedir. Biz bu çalışmada Mukâtil tefsirinin mukaddimesinde yer alan 30 kişiden ayrı olarak kaynakları arasında yer almayan Sa‘îd b. Cübeyr rivâyetlerinin ‘Atâ b. Dînâr aracılığıyla nakledilen yorumla-rıyla karşılaştırmayı hedefledik. Bunu yaparken de Taberî’nin rivâyet tefsirini değil de İbn Ebî Hâtim’in ri-vâyet tefsirini esas aldık. Çalışmamızda Mukâtil b. Süleymân, Sa‘îd b. Cübeyr ve ‘Atâ b. Dînâr hakkında kısaca bilgiler verdik. Bununla beraber bu kişilerin Mukâtil b. Süleymân’la bir bağlantısının bulunup bulun-madığını irdeledik. Çalışmamızda bu kişilerin birbirlerinden habersiz olduklarını gördük. Özellikle doğum, ölüm tarihleri ve yaşadıkları yerleri göz önüne aldığımızda bu üç alimin birbiriyle karşılaşma ihtimalinin dü-şük olduğunu tespit ettik. Bu sebeple biz Mukâtil’in bu kişilerle karşılaşıp Sa‘îd’in tefsirini rivâyet ettiğine değil de ‘Atâ b. Dînâr gibi bu tefsire bir yerde denk gelip tefsirine yerleştirdiğini düşünüyoruz.
An Extension of VIKOR Approach for MCDM Using Bipolar Fuzzy Preference δ-Covering Based Bipolar Fuzzy Rough Set Model
Authors:   Department of Mathematics, Quaid-i-Azam University, Islamabad, 45320, Pakistan, Gul Rizwan
Published: October 2024

Bipolarity highlights the positive and negative facets of a certain dilemma. This script aims to propose a novel multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) approach based on bipolar fuzzy preference δ-covering based bipolar fuzzy rough set (BFPδC-BFRS) model by combining the VIKOR (VIseKriterijumska Optimizacija I Kompromisno Rasenje) scheme. The VIKOR scheme is viewed as a beneficial MCDM strategy, particularly in situations where an expert is incapable of making the right decision at the beginning of system design. The VIKOR method works well for problems with competing attributes because it operates under the presumptions that compromise is acceptable in conflict resolution, the expert seeks a solution that is extremely close to the best, and all developed attributes are taken into consideration when processing the various alternatives. In this study, firstly, we proposed an integrated MCDM based on BFPδC-BFRSs using the VIKOR methodology. Moreover, we solve a real-world illustration to show the effectiveness of the expanded VIKOR approach. Finally, we demonstrate a detailed comparative analysis of the proposed methodology with some prevalent decision-making approaches to substantiate the accountability of the recommended scheme.
Morphomes, models, emergence and the mind
Authors: Round Erich
Published: October 2024

Inflectional systems frequently exhibit organizational generalizations, termed morphomes, which are morphologically autonomous. A contentious question in morphological theory is whether morphomes are cognitively represented. Evidence suggesting that they are has come from historical morphology, in which inflectional idiosyncrasies are repeatedly observed to change so as to align with existing morphomic patterns. However, recent computational modelling of inflectional change has achieved the emergence and persistence of morphome-like patterns, without any direct representation of those patterns. Taken at face value, this appears to undercut the argument from language change in favour of direct representation of morphomes. However, it is shown here that the modelling results, once interpreted carefully, do not imply the cognitive absence of morphomes. Rather, complex questions arise regarding the creation, storage and purpose of cognitive representations, which will require significant further investigation before the debate over morphomic representation can be resolved.

Endocrine disruptoring chemicals (EDCs) are natural and synthetic compounds found ubiquitously in the environment that interfere with the hormonal-immune axis, potentially impacting human health and reproduction. Exposure to EDCs has been associated with numerous health risks, such as neurodevelopmental disorders, metabolic syndrome, thyroid dysfunction, infertility, and cancers. Nevertheless, the current approach to establishing causality between EDCs and disease outcomes has limitations. Epidemiological and experimental research on EDCs faces challenges in accurately assessing chemical exposure and interpreting non-monotonic dose response curves. In addition, most studies have focused on single chemicals or simple mixtures, overlooking complex real-life exposures and EDC mechanistic insights, in particular regarding their impact on the immune system. The ENDOMIX project, funded by the EU’s Horizon Health Program, addresses these challenges by integrating epidemiological, risk assessment, and immunotoxicology methodologies. This systemic approach comprises the triangulation of human cohort, in vitro, and in vivo data to determine the combined effects of EDC mixtures. The present review presents and discusses current literature regarding human reproduction in the context of immunotolerance and EDC mode of action. It further underscores the ENDOMIX perspective to elucidate the impact of EDCs on immune-reproductive health.
Contextual Feature Drift in Large Language Models: An Examination of Adaptive Retention Across Sequential Inputs

Published: October 2024

Advancements in artificial intelligence have led to models capable of generating highly coherent language, yet limitations in retaining contextual alignment across extended inputs remain challenging. Contextual Feature Drift (CFD) emerges as a significant yet underexplored phenomenon, describing how sequential input dynamics affect contextual consistency within model outputs. This paper investigates CFD within an open-source transformer-based model, employing controlled synthetic data sequences to analyze context retention as influenced by factors such as input length, semantic similarity, entropy variability, and temporal intervals. Experimental results reveal that extended input lengths, lower semantic similarity, and high-entropy sequences exacerbate CFD, demonstrating quantifiable declines in context retention. Positional encoding and attention allocation metrics provide further insight into feature drift, showing potential vulnerabilities for applications relying on consistent sequential context, including conversational AI and recommendation systems. The study highlights the criticality of mitigating CFD for enhancing model reliability, positing that strategic adjustments to LLM architectures and training methods may support more robust applications requiring sustained context fidelity. Through this investigation, the findings contribute a foundational understanding of CFD, establishing its relevance for future research and LLM development.
Toddlers’ symbolic play in dyadic mother-child and triadic mother-child-older-sibling interactions
Authors: sherman sharon , Havron Naomi
Published: October 2024

Symbolic play supports crucial aspects of early childhood development, including language and social-cognitive skills. While research has established that parent-child dyadic play facilitates symbolic play development, less is known about how the addition of siblings (triadic interactions) is related to symbolic play development. Previous findings suggest that triadic play may present both opportunities and challenges for symbolic play development. We examined toddlers' symbolic play across dyadic (mother-child) and triadic (mother-child-sibling) free-play interactions. Twenty toddlers (aged 1.7-2.5 years, 8 girls) were observed playing with their mothers and older siblings (aged 3.5-7.5 years, 10 sisters) in two standardized 10-minute play sessions at their homes. We coded five dimensions of symbolic play: frequency, duration, variety, toddler initiative, and complexity. Consistent with our hypothesis, toddlers demonstrated significantly higher levels of symbolic play in dyadic versus triadic interactions overall (p < 0.0001, d = 0.953), and across all measured dimensions (p < .05 - p < .001, d = 0.637 - 0.915). These findings suggest that dyadic parent-child play may optimize conditions for symbolic play development, and/or that the addition of siblings introduces competing demands that reduce opportunities for advanced symbolic play. The results have implications for understanding how family configuration influences early play experiences, and may have implications for designing interventions to support symbolic play development in different social contexts.
Exploring the Mental Health Experiences of Algerian International Students in UK Universities: Cultural Influences, Disclosure, and Help-Seeking Behaviours

International students studying in the UK often face significant challenges, including language barriers, a lack of social networks, and socio-cultural differences, all of which can negatively affect their mental health. For Algerian international students (AISs), these challenges may be heightened due to their distinct cultural background and the fact that English is not their first language. Despite the increasing number of AISs in the UK, little research has explored their specific experiences in relation to mental health. This study aimed to examine AISs' understandings of mental health, the factors influencing disclosure, and their help-seeking behaviours and coping strategies. In-depth, audio-recorded, semi-structured interviews were conducted with 20 AISs studying at UK universities. An inductive, reflexive thematic analysis was employed to allow for a flexible exploration of participants' experiences. The analysis revealed several key themes, including Algerian cultural influences on mental health understanding, the paradox of family support versus pressure, religion as both a coping mechanism and a barrier to disclosure, and a preference for traditional treatments over professional help. Barriers to professional mental health disclosure were also identified, including reliance on informal peer disclosure. Enhancing practitioners' cultural competence regarding religious coping may support AISs and benefit the broader international student population.
Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder in Adults: The Impact of Emotion Dysregulation on Mental Health
Authors: Nakashita Ayako
Published: October 2024

Objective: This study investigates how emotion dysregulation in adults with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) affect their mental health, focusing on the use of reappraisal and suppression strategies. We aim to clarify the unique role these strategies play in managing ADHD symptoms and their impact on psychological well-being.Method: A web-based survey of 294 adults was conducted to evaluate ADHD tendencies, emotion regulation strategies, and mental health outcomes. Partial correlation analysis, Hierarchical Multiple Regression Analysis, and SEM were employed to explore the relationships between ADHD, reappraisal, suppression, and mental health.Results: Adults with higher ADHD tendencies reported greater difficulty using reappraisal strategies and experienced worse mental health outcomes, particularly due to an over-reliance on suppression. In contrast, those with lower ADHD tendencies balanced the use of both reappraisal and suppression strategies and exhibited more adaptive emotion regulation. Conclusion: ADHD tendencies significantly affect the choice of emotion regulation strategies, which in turn impacts mental health. Specifically, reappraisal was found to moderate the negative effects of ADHD on mental health, highlighting the importance of promoting adaptive emotion regulation strategies in clinical interventions for adults with ADHD.

Fast periodic visual stimulation (FPVS) is an electroencephalography (EEG) marker of discrimination between two classes of frequency tagged stimuli (standards and oddballs). Here, we develop FPVS as a probe of low-level visual function, with a view to its future use as a sensitive diagnostic marker of visuospatial cognitive impairment. Thirty participants (21 (±5) years, 7 males) completed five FPVS conditions that implicitly measured their ability to discriminate an oddball line orientation (1°,5°,10°,30°,80°), from a standard vertical line, as well as an equiprobable control condition. Twenty-four participants (24 (±5) years, 5 males) completed a retest session around one month later. Following 100s of recording, activity at the oddball presentation frequency, a neural signal of discrimination between standard and oddball stimuli, was observed in response to lines of 5° and above. The magnitude of this oddball response increased as oddball lines deviated more from vertical. Demonstrating consistency in individual participants, oddball responses were present in 30/30 participants in response to a deviation of 30° and 29/30 in response to a deviation of 80°. At larger deviations, oddball responses were highly reliable between sessions, measured using intraclass correlations. Overall, this study showed that FPVS can consistently and reliably measure line orientation discrimination in individual participants. The consistency and reliability of oddball responses in the cognitively healthy, could provide a strong baseline that clinical group’s performance could be compared to, guiding neurocognitive assessment.
Perceived depth modulates allocation of attention
Authors: Ahsan Tasfia , Freud Erez
Published: October 2024

There is growing evidence that the visual system processes objects perceived as closer more quickly and accurately than those farther away, a phenomenon known as the "close advantage effect" (CAE). The mechanisms underlying this effect, however, remain unknown. In this study, we assessed whether perceived depth modulates allocation of attention. Using a Posner cueing task in Experiment 1a, we found greater accuracy for close surface targets (demonstrating the CAE). Critically, we also found a smaller Posner effect in the close surface, suggesting that attentional resources are better utilized in this space. Experiment 1b confirmed that these results were not due to differences in background surface sizes. In Experiment 2a, using the Egly-Driver task, we replicated and expended the results of Experiment 1a. Participants were more accurate when shifting attention from far to close surfaces and when shifting attention within the close surface, compared to when shifting attention within the far surface. These results suggest that perceived proximity makes attentional shifts more efficient. This effect persisted in Experiment 2b, even after controlling for the perceived size of the targets. Overall, our findings show that perceived depth modulates attention, with close space receiving preferential processing likely due to its relevance for immediate interaction.

Purpose Binge eating involves consuming unusually large amounts of food that another person would not eat in the same period and setting. Emotional eating involves the consumption of food in response to a series of negative emotions. Associated with both are emotional regulation difficulties. People can also be susceptible to overeating because of the hedonic nature of certain foods, such as those high in fat and sugar. We aimed to analyze the differences between increasing levels of binging in hedonic and emotional eating, and its relationship with emotional regulation, and body mass index (BMI). Methods 143 adult cis women (between 18 and 59 years old) completed the Binge Eating Scale, the Garaulet Emotional Eating Questionnaire, the Power of Food Scale, and the Emotional Regulation Difficulties Scale. Results Participants with higher levels of binging showed greater emotional dysregulation, levels of both emotional and hedonistic eating, and BMI. However, emotional dysregulation and BMI do not predict differences in the two types of feeding behavior. Conclusions Results are discussed through different perspectives, such as responsiveness to a caloric food environment, an association with a restrictive eating style, an uncontrolled eating pattern associated with impulsivity, or weight bias that generates stress in people with larger body sizes. Interventions based on intuitive or conscious eating are proposed to address some of these problems.
