A Case Study on an Evaluation of the Annual Activity Plan 2019 of Health Promotion Bureau
Sri Lanka
Authors: Ibrahim Siraj Mohamed
Published: December 2023

The Health Promotion Bureau is the centre of excellence in Sri Lanka for health education, health promotion, and publicity of health information. The main achievement gained during the last few years is empowering and mobilising communities to improve their quality of life through health promotion principles. Public awareness aiming for healthy behaviour changes in the community through mass media is a unique service provided for years by the Health Promotion Bureau and appraised by all sectors. The government of Sri Lanka, the United Nations Populations Fund, the World Bank and the World Health Organization were the leading funding agencies in 2019 for Health Promotion Bureau activities. The activity plan aligns with the health master plan of the Ministry of Health. According to the Ministry of Health's Annual Action Plan 2019, the total estimated cost for all the HPB activities was Rs. 162.66 million. At the end of 2019, the total amount allocated by the Government of Sri Lanka was Rs. 75.01 million. It is 46% of the initial estimation. There were 98 activities planned for 2019 by the HPB. However, only 19 activities were accomplished in 2019. Among them, 17 were fully completed. The other two were completed 93% and 22%. Some of the activities conducted in 2019 were not planned for the year. There were many reasons for the poor performance of the annual activity plan 2019. Lack of monitoring and evaluation on the performance of the annual activity plan, planning unit combined with monitoring and evaluation, no specialised personnel on monitoring and evaluation, budget cuts on planned activities and different funding agencies are some of them. The recommendation is to develop an independent monitoring and evaluation unit separated from the planning unit. The HPB units should be strengthened with adequate staff, and their capacity for planning, monitoring and evaluation should be developed. Provision of proper guidelines for planning activities, involving all the stakeholders and incorporating their views in the planning process, incorporating information and communication technologies in planning and monitoring activities, and regular review of activities and annual activity plan of the Health Promotion Bureau also must be considered for improvement of achievement of HPB annual action plan.

FUNCTIONAL RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN THE HEMIPARASITIC PLANT RHINANTHUS RUMELICUS Velen AND ITS HOST SPECIES
Authors: BUSE–DRAGOMIR BUSE–DRAGOMIR , NICOLAE ION
Published: December 2023

Rhinanthus rumelicus Velen is a hemiparasitic herbaceous species commonly found in hill and lowland meadows, particularly in areas where arable land has been abandoned and converted into grassland. As a result, it can be inferred that this species has an impact on community structure, vegetation zonation, and the dynamics of plant populations.Physiologically, the species extracts a portion of the raw sap from its host plants. The photosynthesis process occurs with intensities similar to those of autotrophic plants. Research has indicated that Rhinanthus rumelicus plants exhibit a more intense respiration process compared to their host plants. While the intensity of their photosynthesis is within the normal range for a unit of leaf surface, the quantity of organic substances generated by this process is minimal, as these substances are primarily consumed during the respiratory process.

Research on Three Common Fault Diagnosis Methods for AC Asynchronous Motors Based on Deep Learning
Authors: Mu-Zhuo Zhang Mu-Zhuo Zhang , Mu-Zhuo Zhang Peng-Jie Du
Published: December 2023

In response to the problem that traditional fault diagnosis methods mainly rely on manual search, this paper proposes an improved convolutional neural network based three item asynchronous motor fault diagnosis method. Taking the motor rotor bar fault as the research object, in the early stage of the fault, the characteristic signal is easily mixed with the motor fundamental frequency signal. Therefore, first, the current characteristics of the motor rotor bar fault are analyzed, and then the motor vibration signal is converted into a time-frequency map using wavelet analysis method. Then, based on the superpixel segmentation method, the image is generated into a superpixel block. Finally, the image information is input into an improved neural network, The improved neural network can adaptively extract fault features. The experimental results show that the method described in this article can improve the diagnostic ability for rotor bar breaking faults, and has a higher fault recognition accuracy compared to traditional methods.

 
探討日語發話中連續CV音節及其習得之確立性－以3音節詞和4音節詞無義詞為例－
Authors: 藤田守 藤田守
Published: December 2023

正確、流利的使用日語乃是所有外國人學習日語的目標。然而，以中文為母語的日語學習者（以下簡稱CNJ）對於五十音無法熟記等問題亦時有所聞。此問題恐與CNJ發話時日語的CV音節過長有關。該如何有效解決此問題乃當務之急。因此，本研究是以6名的CNJ與3名東京腔的日語母語者(以下簡稱JN)為對象，運用日語音聲的特徵以輕聲無義詞來指導，加以確認CNJ是否可利用連續的短CV音節發出日語適當的音節長。通過本實驗研究，比較CNJ（指導前後）和JN的差異，針對單詞、詞語、短句發話中的3音節和4音節無義詞，分析其是否可正確區分CV音節長度。研究結果顯示，指導前CNJ的3音節與4音節的音節長度分布與JN之間具有顯著差異，且音節的高低傾向與JN的音長伸縮率也呈現出差異性。然而，經筆者指導後，CNJ與JN之間的差異已不復見。換言之，我們認為與JN相近之CV音節長度，如在日語音節長度記憶的時間範圍內，則可視為連續短CV音節的日語發話基礎已確立。由此可見，以連續輕聲音節為主的無義詞為基準，並記住日語連續短CV音節長度，足以產出適當的音節長度，得知通過一連串的指導可盡早學習到日語的正確發音。日語連續短CV音節發話基礎的確立，是為解決CNJ與JN的CV音節長度認知差異的有效方法。另，掌握對立長音節間的語音差異，對日語特殊節拍的學習效果亦具一定成效。

 

Accurate and fluent linguistic performance is the goal of language acquisition for foreign learners of Japanese. However, some native Chinese learners (hereinafter referred to as CNJ) complain that they cannot memorize the Japanese syllabary. This is related to the excessively long CV syllables of Japanese produced by CNJ, and prompt resolution of this issue is required.In this research, from the viewpoint of whether it is possible to reproduce the appropriate syllable length by short CV syllables using the meaningless words of 0 tone syllables. As a quasi-experimental study, using the three-syllable and four-syllable test words, including words, phrases, and short sentences by 6 CNJs and 3 native speakers of Tokyo dialect (hereafter referred to as JN) to conduct an experiment.As a result, the syllable length of CNJ (before instruction) for both three-syllable and four-syllable words was significantly more than JN and was also shown in the difference in expansion and contraction rate of syllable length from JN. But after instruction, no significant difference observed, which is close to JN. It shows that the basis of Japanese utterances based on consecutive short CV syllables has already been established.It was confirmed that it is possible to produce an appropriate syllable length by recalling the points of continuous short CV syllables of Japanese, based on meaningless words with continuous o tone syllables. Establishment of the base of utterances by consecutive short CV syllables of Japanese is a standard for resolving discrepancies in CV syllable lengths and grasping the phonetic differences between long syllables. It is also expected to serve as a basis for mastering special syllable.

Published: December 2023

The present study aimed to evaluate the potential of eight plant extracts that are used by communities of the Pothohar Plateau. Selected plants were Brassica campestris, Brassica oleracea var. italica, Allium sativum, Piper nigrum, Cinnamomum zeylanicum, Allium cepa, Olea europaea and Moringa oleifera. The antimicrobial assessment was carried out by using the agar diffusion method and antioxidant activity was evaluated using 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl free radical assay, phosphomolybdate assay, and reducing power assay, against the selected isolates. Antimicrobial and growth rate studies were carried out by using two Gram-negative, one Gram-positive, and two pathogenic fungal strains. Among all tested extracts M. oleifera appeared to have the highest bioactivity with a percentage inhibition of 89 % against DPPH free radical, followed by Allium sativum 81 %, Allium cepa 75 %, Olea europaea 67 %, B. campestris 60 %, B. oleracea 58 %. During the phosphomolybdate assay similar trends were obtained such as: M. oleifera 91 % followed by A. sativum 85 %, A. cepa 78 %, Brassica campestris 72 %, Brassica oleracea 70 % and Olea europaea 65 % in higher concentration (1000 µg/ml). In the case of antibacterial assay Moringa oleifera showed maximum zone of inhibition against Staphylococcus aureus (20mm) followed by Klebsiella pneumonia (18 mm) and Escherichia coli, (17mm) whereas, crude extract of Allium sativum showed maximum zone of inhibition 14.4 mm against A. flavus whereas M. oleifera gave maximum zone of inhibition against A. alternata, followed by A. sativum and A. cepa.  All the tested extracts showed bioactivities. This study can indicate the antimicrobial and antioxidant potentials of M. oleifera, and A. species. Hence, it is recommended that the extracts of these plants should be further evaluated for their possible application as antimicrobial and antioxidant agents.
Probabilistic Modeling for Conditional Statements
Authors: Ghazi Alaa , Hashim Yasir
Published: December 2023

A new mathematical framework is proposed in this study to comprehend the impact of program architecture on input random variables, the IF statement was the main topic. The primary idea that is theoretically and experimentally supported in this study is that the part of the joint pmf of a collection of random variables that represents the condition will be shifted to the part that represents the action. After sorting two random variables, the framework is used with four random variables, and the theoretically produced results were realistically validated. The study's equations can be applied to assessing probabilistic models of various sorting algorithms or other intricate program structures. This may also result in future investigations formalizing more precise execution time expectations.

Published: December 2023

A fitossociologia é considerada uma importante ferramenta na determinação das espécies mais relevantes em comunidades e, no contexto amazônico, os ambientes ou fitofisionomias florestais possuem contingentes florísticos ricos e variados, muitas vezes exclusivos de um único ambiente. Dito isto, este estudo teve como objetivo compilar e comparar as características de diferentes sistemas florestais amazônicos, bem como as espécies que os compõem. Foram incluídos 40 estudos neste levantamento, dos quais 10 foram realizados em floresta de terra firme, 10 em florestas de várzea, 10 em florestas de igapó e 10 em manguezais. Verificou-se que em florestas de terra firme ocorrem maior riqueza e diversidade de espécies do que nas várzeas e manguezais, pois estes necessitam que as espécies se adaptem à sazonalidade das inundações. Nas florestas de terra firme e de várzea verificou-se a ocorrência de diversas espécies da família Fabaceae. Percebeu-se uma lacuna de estudos de fitossociologia de manguezais. Verificou-se que os estudos fitossociológicos demonstram ser de grande importância para análise e comparação de características das florestas amazônicas.

Authors: Rivoira Matteo
Published: December 2023

La lingua dei manoscritti valdesi medievali è una varietà occitana che si può ricondurre all’insieme alpino, pur rimandeno un caso isolato nel quadro della documentazione sin qui reperita. Le caratteristiche della scripta sono state nel corso del tempo raffrontate dai vari studiosi con le varietà orali contemporanee delle attuali Valli Valdesi, area di reperimento dei manoscritti, giungendo a conclusioni anche molto differenti. Nel presente contributo, dopo aver inquadrato alcuni degli aspetti problematici del confronto tra la varietà letteraria medievale con gli attuali dialetti, si propone di riconsiderarne determinanti aspetti alla luce dell’analisi condotta, a titolo d’esempio, a partire dal paradigma degli aggettivi possessivi
Su alcuni toponimi (ancora incerti) delle «Cantigas de Santa María»: chiarimenti alla luce del progetto "GloSabio"
Authors: Negri Manuel
Published: December 2023

Ancora scarsi si rivelano i contributi volti a offrire delle ipotesi risolutive sull’ambiguità di alcuni toponimi che vengono citati nelle Cantigas de Santa María. Il presente lavoro, frutto di ricerche condotte nell’ambito di un progetto più vasto, avente l’obiettivo di intraprendere uno studio sistematico delle entità nominali (toponimi e antroponimi) che compaioni nelle Cantigas dedicate alla Vergine, affronta i casi di Camela (CSM 165), Luzerna (CSM 405) e Romania (CSM 231). Questi hanno hanno infatti ricevuto letture divergenti da parte della critica, con una conseguente alterazione dello spazio in cui si verificano i corrispondenti miracoli letterari. Lo studio mira ad integrare le già buone osservazioni di Walter Mettmann con dati linguistici, storici e letterari per pervenire ad una più sicura identificazione dei toponimi in questione
Jaufre Rudel: Longinquus amor, amor de lonh, amors loingtaignes. Dallo spazio al tempo?
Authors: Barbiellini Amidei Beatrice
Published: December 2023

Il saggio si sofferma sulla celebre formula amor de lonh nel vers Lanquan li jorn di Jaufre Rudel. Il meccanismo strutturale del componimento appare costruito sul mot-refrain lonh e il sintagma amor de lonh utilizzati prima con aequivocatio e poi con ripresa anaforica, rispettivamente nelle coblas I-V e VI-VII. Tale dato e rimandi testuali quali il longinquus amor di Properzio – già additato da Roncaglia e Patrizia Onesta come vero e proprio topos letterario utilizzato nella lirica di Jaufre – e gli amors loingtaignes del Lai d'Aristote farebbero ipotizzare che Lanquan li jorn utilizzi il sintagma poi cristallizzatosi e di enorme e inuguagliato successo letterario nell'accezione temporale di "amore costante, durevole, di lungo corso".

Postmodernism is a stream of thought that consists of a complex, multi-layered and multifaceted collection of phenomena, behaviours, and products. Postmodernism, which has different definitions by many academics, still exists as a concept that is not clearly defined today. It is possible to say it is an era of new thinking about literature and theatre. Postmodern drama emerged in the second half of the twentieth century when postmodernism began to prevail. It includes the self-awareness and self-consciousness of the society that changed with the conditions of the period. In this context, Tom Stoppard and Ferhan Şensoy, two successful playwrights who used postmodern features in their plays, have gained respect in our country and the world. This study is based on the idea that there is a close relationship between the styles of both playwrights. Thus, the postmodern techniques used by the two authors in their plays under consideration are examined. Accordingly, this article aims to define postmodern drama and the methods used in the theatre to show how postmodern elements such as metadrama, parody, cultural reference, wordplay, and absurdity in Tom Stoppard's The Real Inspector Hound and Ferhan Şensoy's Fişne Pahçesu.
THE TRACES OF WOMB ENVY IN THE PATRIARCHAL PANTHEON IN GREEK MYTHOLOGY
Authors: AKÇEŞME Banu
Published: December 2023

Myths provide insight both into the cultural aspects of human societies and the psychological motivations behind human actions, drives, urges, dreams and fantasies. Myths illustrate how the ancient people make sense of their existence, creation, the working of the earth, natural events and catastrophes. They also provide symbolic representations and projections of desired attainments, relations, bodies and institutions in human culture. In this sense, wishfulfillment can be considered one of the fundamental functions of myths. Important psychoanalysts such as Sigmund Freud and Carl Jung also extensively make use of myths to shed light on various aspects of cultural practices, human psyche and behavior. This paper intends to explore the traces of womb envy in Greek mythology since it is one of the fundamental feelings and desires that can be observed in the male psyche. The child-bearing capacity of women, along with the pre-oedipal mother-child relation, has always created anxiety and fear in male deities, which in fact reflect the real life experience. Gods’ desire to possess the ruling power can be seen as an attempt to overcome this fear and make up for their lack of reproductive capacity. This paper will examine the selected myths in a psychoanalytical framework with specific references to Melanie Klein’s and Karen Horney’s concepts of womb envy.
English as a Foreign Language Teachers’ Acceptance of Using Blackboard Collaborate Ultra in Higher Education
Authors: Alshehri Eman
Published: December 2023

Educational technologies are increasingly becoming an essential part of higher education. Teachers are using different kinds of technology to facilitate their lessons. Nevertheless, teachers’ adoption of educational technology is influenced by their willingness to embrace these tools. This study examines English as a foreign language (EFL) teachers’ acceptance of Blackboard Collaborate Ultra (BCU) for teaching English in Saudi Arabia. The primary aim is to investigate the factors that impact teachers’ intentions to use a specific Blackboard feature for language teaching. The research adopts the technology acceptance model and external factors, such as subjective norms, facilitating conditions, and computer self-efficacy. Data was collected from 85 participants. After statistical analysis using SPSS and AMOS software, the findings indicate that all the investigated factors either directly or indirectly influence EFL instructors’ intentions to employ BCU. The study also reveals that EFL teachers’ attitudes towards BCU were the sole factor that directly influenced their intention to use it. The implications for teacher training are discussed below.

Geometric variability in radiological appearance of third ventricle in congenital hydrocephalus- is it really so pliable? Or do we need to visualize it differently? A two-case study and literature review
Authors: Sreenivasan Sanjeev , Agarwal Neha , Pandey Prabhu Nath , Gupta Gaurav
Published: December 2023

Enlargement of third ventricle is seen due to multiple causes, usually associated with hydrocephalus. Raised intracranial pressure (ICP) is the most common indication for a cerebrospinal fluid diversion procedure. However, congenital anomalies like Dandy walker malformation (DWM) may not always manifest with raised ICP. Identifying neurological delay and neurocognitive parameters and correlating this with existing anatomical features is extremely important. We discuss this report of two cases of patients with DWM where abnormal morphology of the third ventricle was analysed and used to interpret clinical neurological delay.
Armenian Contemporary Architecture in World Parallels
Authors: Kertmenjian David
Published: December 2023

One of the urgent problems of architecture today is the systematization of the contemporary materials: listing of the newly constructed buildings, deciding their trends and styles, periodization and supply of philosophical background, use of new equipment and technologies, etc. The other aspect of the contemporary era is the study of implementations of the countries and different regions in the world and the analysis of their properties. In the world context, listing of the new constructed buildings is still available in general sense, whereas the local instances of individual small countries are in research phase yet, as it is in the case of Armenia. In fact, this article deals with the aforementioned components of the world’s modern architecture, in parallel to the Armenian examples, which, in their turn, supply the available aspects or reveal the missing matters in Armenia today.
Ժամանակակից ճարտարապետությունը 21-րդ դարի ճարտարապետությունն է, որն արդի ճարտարապետության զարգացման վերջին փուլն է։ Այն անհրաժեշտ է պարբերացնել և բնութագրել ճարտարապետությունը բնութագրող հատկանիշներով՝ տիպաբանությամբ, հորինվածքային պարամետրերով ու ոճով, ինչպես նաև՝ շինարվեստով ու տեխնոլոգիաներով, ճարտարապետության ինֆորմացիոն միջոցներով։ Ներկայացվող հոդվածի նպատակն է՝ կատարել Հայաստանի ժամանակակից ճարտարապետության համակարգումը՝ ինտեգրելով այն որպես ճարտարապետության ուրույն զարգացման փուլ կամ միջազգայինի հետ առնչվող և կազմավորվող ժամանակաշրջան։
Современная архитектура – это архитектура 21-го века, являющаяся на данный момент последним этапом развития современной архитектуры.

В представленной статье делается попытка согласовать новейшую архитектуру Армении, интегрируя ее как уникальный этап развития архитектуры или период, связанный и сформированный международным сообществом.
Լիդերության ձգտումը պատանի երաժշտի մոտ
Authors: Կոստանդյան Մարտուն
Published: December 2023

Հոդվածի հեղինակը, ելնելով տասնամյակների իր մանկավարժական փորձից, փորձում է ուրվագծել լիդերության մասնագիտական հակումներ ունեցող աշակերտների գեղարվեստական կայացման հետ կապված մեթոդական խնդիրների շրջանակը։ Փորձ է արվել սահմանել կրթական պրոցեսի առավել կարևոր գործոնը, որը ոչ միայն աշակերտին կբերի դեպի բարձր բեմ, այլև կձևավորի նրա՝ ամենաբարձր մակարդակի անհատական որակները։ Երաժշտական մանկավարժության այս ուղղության մշակումը պահանջում է ոչ միայն օժտվածության բարձր ռեսուրսներ ունեցող աշակերտների անհատական որակների դաստիարակման՝ հեղինակի կողմից առաջ քաշված ասպեկտների մանրամասն դիտարկում, այլև պրոֆեսիոնալ հոգեբանների միջամտություն։ Ուսումնասիրության արդյունքները վկայում են, որ կարևորագույն հարցը աշակերտ-լիդերների մոտ ոճի և ճաշակի զգացումների պատվաստումն է, որոնք, իրենց հերթին, կատարողականության ստեղծագործական հիմքն են։
Автор статьи, опираясь на свой педагогический опыт, охватывающий несколько десятков лет, пытается обрисовать круг методических проблем, связанных с художественным становлением учеников с профессиональными наклонностями к лидерству, а также определить наиболее важный фактор образовательного процесса, который не только выведет ученика на большую сцену, но и сформирует высокий уровень его индивидуальных качеств. Разработка этого направления музыкальной педагогики требует как детального рассмотрения выдвинутых автором статьи аспектов, касающихся развития индивидуальных качеств одаренных учащихся, так и вовлечения в процесс профессиональных психологов. Результаты исследования свидетельствуют, что во главу угла следует ставить развитие в учениках-лидерах чувства стиля и вкуса, являющихся, в свою очередь, творческой основой исполнительства.
The author of the article, basing on one’s pedagogical experience of several dozens of years, attempts to outline the scope of methodological issues related to the artistic formation of students with professional inclination for leadership, as well as to define the most important factor in the educational process, which will not only lead the students to the big stage, but also shape their most lofty individual qualities. Elaboration of this trend of musical pedagogy requires detailed scrutiny of the proposed by the author aspects of development of individual qualities in gifted students, along with the involvement of professional psychologists in the process. The results of the research evidence that the most important issue is to instill in student-leaders the sense of style and taste, which, in turn, are the creative basis of performing art.
