The use of Concept Maps in the Evaluation of Cognitive Models of Science. The Case of Photoelectric Effect.
Authors: de Mello Luiz Adolfo
Published: July 2018

Using the theoretical framework of cognitive theory of science and using conceptual mapping will do the study of how original scientific models are transposed to the didactic models. This is, to analyze how the knowledge produced in the 'academic spheres' is modified, adapted, simplified and consolidate as knowledge to be taught in the classroom. Here we study the topic of physics called photoelectric effect. We will review the main concepts used by Albert Einstein (1905) in the development of the theory of the photoelectric effect and how they were transcribed, filtered and drawn up in textbooks made for the academic course of Bachelor of Science in Physics, for the basic cycle of university course and for high school. That is, how the eight (8) chapters of his article condense in a single section in high school textbooks. We will use here Concept Map to analyze how does the didactic transposition of this theory in the generalized sense by Izquierdo-Aymerich (2003) and synthesized by de Mello (2015a) of Chevallard theory (1985). We analyze, using as a theoretical framework the cognitive science theory [Nersessian, 1992; Jhonson-Laird, 1980] as the fact of the theory for the photoelectric effect have been proposal before the paradigm of quantum mechanics have been established affected the epistemological construction of that article and how this fact was transposed to textbooks. Here we will consolidate the most current version of the theory of didactic transposition that encompasses (synthesizes) the theory of Chevallard, cognitive theory of science and mental models of Jhonson-Laird. We will confirm here that CM is for the analysis of conceptual construction of any theory the equivalent of structured language is for programming.
Murtad: Antara Hukuman Mati dan Kebebasan Beragama

Published: July 2018

Di Indonesia, berdasarkan informasi dan pemberitaan yang kita dapati, banyak umat Islam yang keluar dari Agamanya dan memeluk agama lain dengan berbagai macam motif dan alasan yang berbeda-beda tergantung pada kepentingannya masing-masing. Fenomena ini tampaknya menjadi trend baru dan menjadi sebuah gaya hidup atau lifestyle di tengah derasnya arus globalisasi, kehidupan berdemokrasi, penghormatan terhadap hak asasi manusia dan kebebasan beragama yang tengah diperjuangkan oleh segelintir orang untuk membawa misi-misi tertentu dalam rangka merealisasikan misi dan isu global.Dalam Islam, hukuman bagi pelaku riddah adalah hukuman mati, dan di Akhirat nanti akan mendapatkan balasan di Neraka, hal ini sesuai dengan pesan yang terkandung dalam Al-Qur`an dan Hadis Nabi Muhammad SAW. Hal ini sesuai juga dengan pandangan dan pendapat para ulama-ulama otoritatif, sehingga masalah riddah harus menjadi perhatian bagi seluruh Umat Islam agar jangan sampai terjerumus pada praktek riddah yang akan mengantarkan kita pada Neraka.
From One to Many: Synced Hash-Based Signatures
Authors: Vives Santi J.
Published: July 2018

Hash-based signatures use a one-time signature (OTS) as its main building block, and transform it into a many-times scheme, to sign a larger number of signatures. In known constructions, the cost and the size of each signature increase as the number of needed signatures grows. In real-world applications, requiring a significant number of signatures, the signatures can get quite large. As a result, it is usually believed that post-quantum signatures based on hashes need more computation and much larger sizes than classical signatures. We introduce a construction to challenge that idea: we show that it is possible to construct a many-times signatures scheme that is more efficient than the OTS it is built from, rather than less.We study the generation of signatures in conjunction with a blockchain, like bitcoin. The proposed scheme permits an unlimited number of signatures. The size of each signatures is constant and the same as in the OTS. The verification cost starts the same as in the OTS and decreases with each new signature, becoming more efficient on average as the number of signatures grows.

Chromotherapy to Reducing Stress
Authors: Zola Nilma , Fadli Rima Pratiwi , Ifdil Ifdil
Published: July 2018

Stress can arise as a result of pressure or tension that comes from dissonance between a person and his environment. Stress is an adaptive response to an external situation that results in physical and psychological aberrations. The result, too much stress can threaten a person's ability to face the environment, which ultimately disrupts his daily life. For that needed a therapy that can help in reducing the impact of stress. One of the therapies that can be used is color therapy. Color therapy is one of the non-pharmacological therapy that can reduce stress. Therapy is created because it is based on the assertion that each particular color contains healing energies. The effect of color affects the work of the sympathetic nerves parasympathetic, and improves mood. Color therapy provides an element of relaxation, which from various studies of relaxation can reduce anxiety or anxiety in individuals

Mathematics Curriculum Change and Assessment Models: The Quest for an Integrated Approach
Authors: Anyor Joseph Wuave , Abah Joshua Abah
Published: July 2018

The mathematics curriculum is a plan for ordering and directing the teaching and learning of mathematics in educational institutions. A significant feature of the mathematics curriculum as an educational instrument is its ability to responds to the yearnings and aspirations of the people it serves. The recent change in the mathematics curriculum is targeted at realizing both present and future realities, by translating plans into achievable actions. However, the objectives of the curriculum will be missed if assessment practices are not reviewed and implemented. The existing psychometric model of assessment design which focused on standardized tests has failed to comprehensively cater for the needs of the students. This study seeks to unveil the inconsistencies and lack of guiding principles in assessment mechanisms in Nigeria. For the mathematics curriculum to be linked to rich assessment based on standards, the practice of assessing students’ learning must be placed back into the hands of classroom teachers. An integrated approach is sought to efficiently combine various alternative assessment tools and resources, deriving evaluative feedback from students learning experiences for the purpose of enhancing mathematics instruction.

How the Presence of Others Affects Desirability Judgments in Heterosexual and Homosexual Participants
Authors: Scofield John E. , Kostic Bogdan , Buchanan Erin Michelle
Published: July 2018

Mate-choice copying is a mating strategy wherein females rely on contextual information to assist in securing accurate assessments of potential mates. Mate-choice copying has been extensively studied in non-human species and has begun to be examined in humans as well. Hill and Buss (2008) found evidence of opposing effects for men and women in desirability judgments based on the presence of other opposite-sex people. The current project successfully replicated these findings with 44 heterosexual females and 73 heterosexual males, finding support for the desirability enhancement effect in female participants and the desirability diminution effect in male participants. The current project also extended these findings to include 73 male and 32 female participants identifying as homosexual. Homosexual men exhibited the desirability enhancement effect, and homosexual women exhibited the desirability diminution effect, revealing sex differences in mate-choice copying spanning different sexual orientations.
Beyond statistics: accepting the null hypothesis in mature sciences
Authors: Morey Richard Donald , Homer Saskia , Proulx Travis
Published: July 2018

Scientific theories explain phenomena using simplifying assumptions: for instance, that the speed of light does not depend on the direction in which the light is moving, or that the height of a pea plant depends on a small number of alleles randomly obtained from its parents. The ability to support these simplifying assumptions with statistical evidence is crucial to scientific progress, though it might involve "accepting" the null hypothesis. We review two historical examples where statistical evidence was used to accept a simplifying assumption (rejecting the luminiferous aether and genetic theory) and one where the null hypothesis was not accepted in spite of repeated failures (gravitational waves), drawing lessons from each. We emphasize the role of the scientific context in the acceptance of the null: accepting the null is never a purely statistical affair.

An improvement of Hardy Cross method applied on looped spatial natural gas distribution networks
Authors: Brkic Dejan
Published: July 2018

Hardy Cross method is common for calculation of loops-like gas distribution networks with known node gas consumptions. This method is given in two forms: original Hardy Cross method-successive substitution methods and improved-simultaneous solution method (Newton-Raphson group of methods). Problem of gas flow in looped network is nonlinear problem; i.e. relation between flow and pressure drop is not linear while relation between electric current and voltage is. Improvement of original method is done by introduction of influence of adjacent contours in Yacobian matrix which is used in calculation and which is in original method strictly diagonal with all zeros in non-diagonal terms. In that way necessary number of iteration in calculations is decreased. If during the design of gas network with loops is anticipated that some of conduits are crossing each other without connection, this sort of network became, so there has to be introduced corrections of third or higher order.

Authors: Alsadik Bashar
Published: July 2018

An application is presented in this paper to an important technique of least square (LS) adjustment using the unified approach. The unified approach is considering the contribution of weights to unknown parameters in a Geomatics model similar to observations. Accordingly, the adjusted parameters are governed by their assigned a priori weights which is normally based on the instrument limitations and manufacturers specifications. The aim of this paper, is to spot the light on such advanced LS techniques which is suitable nowadays to handle the wealth of observations collected from modern sensors and navigation systems embedded in the modern mapping systems.
Free will, determinism, and intuitive judgments about the heritability of behavior
Authors: Willoughby Emily A , Love Alan C , McGue Matt , Iacono William G. , Quigley Jack , Lee James J.
Published: July 2018

The fact that genes and environment contribute differentially to variation in human behaviors, traits and attitudes is central to the field of behavior genetics. Perceptions about these differential contributions may affect ideas about human agency. We surveyed two independent samples (N = 301 and N = 740) to assess beliefs about free will, determinism, political orientation, and the relative contribution of genes and environment to 21 human traits. We find that lay estimates of genetic influence on these traits cluster into four distinct groups, which differentially predict beliefs about human agency, political orientation, and religiosity. Despite apparent ideological associations with these beliefs, the correspondence between lay estimates and published heritability estimates for the surveyed traits is large (r = .77). Belief in genetic determinism emerges as a modest predictor of accuracy in these lay estimates. Additionally, educated mothers with multiple children emerge as particularly accurate in their estimates of the genetic contribution to these traits.
THE ROLE OF TSO (THIRD SECTOR ORGANIZATION) TOWARDS THE EMPOWERMENT OF WOMEN IN BALI (CASE STUDY: BALI SRUTI)
Authors: Kusuma Arnold Arswenda
Published: July 2018

The issue of gender inequality in Indonesia is the result of a patriarchal culture that has existed for a long time. The gender division of men and women in the field of social and economic development is clearly visible, as women do not fully gain access to some resource sectors, such as education and employment. Bali as one of the provinces in Indonesia that still adheres to patriarchal culture. But the culture is in fact contrary to the Hindu belief that they believe to be the majority religion, where women have a very respectable position because it is considered as the incarnation of one of the revered Goddesses. This then underlies the movement of one of the TSO (Third Sector Organization) in Bali, Bali Sruti, which then consistently campaigns for women empowerment. In this paper the authors found that the role of Bali Sruti in their efforts to empower women in Bali includes several things, such as the socialization of women's participation in politics, the socialization of pluralism, and interactive discussions through interactive radio in relation to gender equality issues aimed at increasing the participation of Balinese women in sustainable social and economic development.

When English Meets Chinese in Tibetan Schools: Towards an Understanding of Multilingual Education in Tibet
Authors: Xiao ZhiMin , Higgins Steve
Published: July 2018

By tracing the evolution of linguistic models for state education in the Tibet Autonomous Region (TAR) of China, this chapter shows that bilingual education policies in the TAR oscillated between Chinese-led and Tibetan-led models since the 1950s. By presenting the rise and fall of specific linguistic models under a social and historical light, the study demonstrates that Tibetan students’ underperformance in subjects like English and Maths today is historically given and economically driven. In other words, the educational landscape as we see in Tibet today is socially constructed and represents competing interests of different groups. With English added to the mix, the complexity of language education policies in the TAR has increased. Upon interviewing students of diverse socioeconomic backgrounds from across the TAR and looking into their past and present schooling experiences, the authors argue that the dynamics between linguistic models and linguistic capital in the TAR articulate ethnic sentiments, leadership preferences, and the myriad ways in which Tibetans responded to the authority exercised by the leadership.
Factor structure evaluation of the French version of the Digital Natives Assessment Scale (DNAS)
Authors: Wagner Vincent , Acier Didier
Published: July 2018

Introduction: ‘Digital natives’ concept defines young adults particularly familiar with emerging technologies such as computers, smartphones or Internet. This notion is still controversial and so far the primary identifying criterion was to consider their date of birth. However, literature highlighted the need to describe specific characteristics. The purpose of this research was to evaluate the factor structure of a French version of the Digital Natives Assessment Scale (DNAS).Materials and methods: The sample of this study includes 590 participants from a six-week massive open online course and from websites, electronic forums and social networks. The DNAS was translated in French, then back-translated to English. Results: A principal component analysis with orthogonal rotation followed by a confirmatory factorial analysis showed that a 15-item-four-correlated-component model provided the best fit for the data of our sample. Discussion: Factor structure of this French-translated version of the DNAS was rather similar than those found in earlier studies. This study provides evidence of the DNAS robustness through cross-cultural and cross-generational validation. The French version of the DNAS appears to be appropriate as a quick and effective questionnaire to assess digital natives. More studies are needed to better define further features of this particular group.
THE MILITARY COUP ON 28 MARCH 1962 IN SYRIA AND PROPAGANDA BROADCASTS ON DAMASCUS RADIO ABOUT THE COUP
Authors: sertel savaş
Published: July 2018

Located in the Middle East, Syria is an Arab state, whose history goes back to ancient times. One of the oldest civilizations, Egypt is located between the Anatolian and Mesopotamian civilizations. Syria remained under the rule of the Ottoman Empire for almost 400 years. However, after the WWI, the country went under the French mandate. Syria won its independence in 1946. The country faced several military coups between 1949 to 1970, sometimes one military coup within another one. Some of the coups lasted only one week. In 1970 Hafez al-Assad, who was a member of the Ba’ath Party, took over and started a stable dictatorial era. During the 28 March 1962 coup, one of those undermining the already weak democracy in Syria, the Damascus radio made propaganda all day long praising the coup. In this study, we examine sections of the broadcasts on the Damascus radio, which had become the propaganda means of the 28 March 1962 coup, followed closely by the Turkish Foreign Affairs. In the broadcasts, the coup was praised on the whole, and the reasons for the coup as stated by the military were tried to be dictated upon the public. Moreover, the overthrown government was blamed for treason and serving imperialism. By doing so, they tried to discredit the old regime and emphasized that they were the rescuers and the ally of the public. With statements and propaganda far from being credible, they threatened those who did not obey the curfew and said anyone taking part in demonstrations would be severely punished. In this way, they tried to suppress and intimidate the general public. Thus the so-called populist coup was actually made against the public for the claimed "public welfare".

The bipolarity of affect and depressive symptoms
Authors: Dejonckheere Egon , Mestdagh Merijn , Houben Marlies , Erbas Yasemin , Pe Madeline , Bastian Brock , Koval Peter , Brose Annette , Kuppens Peter
Published: July 2018

People differ in the extent to which they experience positive (PA) and negative affect (NA) rather independently or as bipolar opposites. Here, we examine the proposition that the nature of the relation between positive and negative affect in a person’s emotional experience is indicative of psychological well-being, in particular the experience of depressive symptoms, typically characterized by diminished positive affect (anhedonia) and increased negative affect (depressed mood). In three experience sampling studies, we examine how positive and negative affective states are related within people’s emotional experience in daily life and how the degree of bipolarity of this relation is associated with depressive symptom severity. In Study 1 and 2, we show both concurrently and longitudinally that a stronger bipolar PA-NA relationship is associated with, and in fact is predicted by, higher depressive symptom severity, even after controlling for mean levels of positive and negative affect. In Study 3, we replicate these findings in a daily diary design, with the two conceptually related main symptoms of depression, sadness and anhedonia, as specific manifestations of high NA and low PA, respectively. Across studies, additional analyses indicate these results are robust across different timescales and various PA and NA operationalizations and that affective bipolarity shows particular specificity towards depressive symptomatology, in comparison with anxiety symptoms. Together, these findings demonstrate that depressive symptoms involve stronger bipolarity between positive and negative affect, reflecting reduced emotional complexity and flexibility.
The Newtonian Potential and the Demagnetizing Factors of the General Ellipsoid
Authors: Di Fratta Giovanni
Published: July 2018

The objective of this paper is to present a modern and concise new derivation for the explicit expression of the interior and exterior Newtonian potential generated by homogeneous ellipsoidal domains in $\mathbb{R}^N$ (with $N \geqslant 3$). The very short argument is essentially based on the application of Reynolds transport theorem in connection with Green-Stokes integral representation formula for smooth functions on bounded domains of$\mathbb{R}^N$, which permits to reduce the N-dimensional problem to a 1-dimensional one. Due to its physical relevance, a separate section is devoted to the derivation of the demagnetizing factors of the general ellipsoid which are one of the most fundamental quantities in ferromagnetism.

ABSTRAKPerlu kiranya diterapkan sebuah model pembelajaran apresiasi sastra untuk membantu guru dalam menumbuhkan minat dan kecintaan siswa terhadap karya sastra. Pada penelitian ini difokuskan pada pembelajaran apresiasi sastra khususnya cerpen melalui model respons pembaca (reader’s respons). Penggunaan model respons pembaca diharapkan siswa dengan leluasa memberikan tanggapan-tanggapan terhadap karya sastra yang dibacanya. Alasan pemilihan cerpen sebagai bahan ajarnya karena dalam cerpen mengandung pokok permasalahan yang diungkap oleh pengarang dalam jumlah halaman yang tidak begitu banyak. Di samping itu, dari segi kompleksitas cerita, cerpen tidak terlalu banyak menyajikan cerita-cerita yang kompleks, sekali dibaca cerita itu selesai. Objek penelitian akan dilakukan pada siswa kelas X SMA Islam Al Azhar 5 Cirebon.Ruang lingkup dalam penelitian ini adalah penggunaan model respons pembaca dalam pembelajaran apresiasi cerpen pada siswa kelas X SMA Islam Al Azhar 5 Cirebon. Hal ini dapat dirumuskan kalimat pertanyaan: (1) Bagaimanakah struktur cerpen dekade 1980-an ditinjau dari segi struktural dan sosiologi sastra? (2) Bagaimanakah peran pengajar dalam model respons pembaca? (3) Bagaimanakah keaktifan siswa pada saat bertransaksi dengan cerpen dalam model respons pembaca?Sesuai dengan rumusan masalah yang telah dimunculkan, penelitian ini bertujuan untuk : (1) Mendeskripsikan struktur cerpen-cerpen dekade 1980-an dan ditinjau dari segi sosiologi sastra. (2) Mendeskripsikan peran guru dalam pembelajaran apresiasi cerpen melalui model respons pembaca. (3) Memperoleh gambaran keaktifan siswa dalam bertransaksi dengan cerpen melalui model respons pembaca.Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah metode eksploratif . Metode ini tidak hanya berfokus pada bagaimana mentransfer ilmu pengetahuan, pemahaman, dan interpretasi, tetapi harus diimbangi dengan peningkatan mutu materi ajar. Pembahasan penilitian ini adalah mengenai penilaian cerpen berdasarkan struktur cerpen dan berdasarkan tinjauan sosiologis sastra. Kemudian peran guru dalam pembelajaran apresiasi cerpen melalui model respons pembaca adalah sangat penting. Peran guru tersebut antara lain: fasilitator, mediator dan motivator.

Does a turn in the road mark a turn of events? Turns along travelled routes provide contextual boundaries during navigation

Physical or conceptual boundaries segment continuous experience into component events. Boundaries accentuate differences between events that occur on either side of them, and reduce differences among events within them. Here we show that turns during navigation have the same effect on memory for routes as they do for episodes. Across three experiments, turns selectively enhanced participants’ recollection of locations immediately preceding them. In addition, in Experiments 1 and 2, the presence of an intervening turn enhanced participants’ ability to discriminate between event durations across boundaries, but impaired their ability to discriminate between their ordinal positions. In Experiment 3, the reported increase in recollection of pre-turn locations was also reflected in subjective dilation of the time spent at pre-turn, relative to post-turn, locations. Together, these results highlight the fundamental role of turns in the segmentation of spatial and temporal memory and indicate a potential mechanism for the segmentation of experience generally.

Memories of a Dying Industry: Sense and Identity in a British Paper Mill
Authors: Krebs Stefan
Published: July 2018

Frogmore paper mill is a kind of time machine that allows historians of technology and the senses to study mechanized paper-making as it was done one hundred years ago. Before the introduction of instrumentation and automatic process control paper-making depended profoundly on the embodied skills of the workers. This paper will focus on the sensory knowledge and skills required for monitoring and controlling old machinery. Investigating skills-in-use will help to unravel the close link between sensing and acting to keep a continuous production process stable and running. Paper-makers would shift intuitively between different senses and sensory modes of monitoring and diagnosing sensory tell-tales to balance the production process. The importance of sensory knowledge and embodied skills also shaped paper-makers’ self-perception and professional ethos. The paper will examine the impact of new process control technology on the crucial role of sensory skills for the paper-makers’ individual and collective identities.

The PSICAT protocol - Primed Subjective-Illusory-Contour Attention Task for studying integrated functional cognitive basis of sustained attention
Authors: Cowley Benjamin Ultan
Published: July 2018

Understanding and measuring sustained attention is important for basic research and applications. Measurement and testing with computerised continuous performance tests is common. When studying the neural correlates of attention, such tests aim to isolate the construct of sustained attention. However, in any ecologically-valid context, sustained attention integrates with other executive functions and depends on lower level perceptual processing. Examination of these interactions is not well-served by existing options, and hence I propose a novel protocol to probe higher cognition and its neural correlates: the Primed Subjective Illusory Contour Attention Task (PSICAT). PSICAT tackles two important aspects of ecological attention: (a) successful attending may require inhibition of interference; (b) natural target stimuli are complex and often noisy. I describe a validation experiment measuring healthy participants with high-resolution electroencephalography. Behavioural and brain-imaging results validate the key hypotheses for the functionality of PSICAT. Additionally, I demonstrate the novel result that task-irrelevant incongruency of an intra-modal distractor prime can evoke stronger behavioural and neural responses than the task-relevant stimulus condition. Finally, the protocol is available as an open-source code repository at the following url, allowing researchers to reuse and adapt it to their particular requirements. https://github.com/zenBen/Kanizsa_Prime/
