Some Remarks on the ‘AI Judge’ in the Context of Recent European Union Regulatory Action
Authors:   Sapientia Hungarian University of Transylvania (Cluj-Napoca, Romania), Székely János
Published: February 2025

The utilisation of artificial intelligence (AI) as an aid during adjudication is no longer a future prospect, but a reality. While current implementations of the technology are as of yet far removed from the future science fiction would have us fear, the prospect of the ‘AI judge’ must now be seriously considered. In our analysis we investigate whether such a prospect would be compatible with fundamental rights and proposed EU norms set to govern the use of AI technology. We also examine the ethical requirements for utilising AI, including in the judicial domain. We find, that in lack of a possibility of granting a reasoned decision, in the course of a transparent procedure, AI fails to meet the basic requirements that would allow its use, under current and predictable future regulatory conditions during adjudication in the European Union. We further find that the shortcomings of the technology and the regulatory environment would hinder the accountability required for implementing the ‘AI judge’. We conclude that the specific needs of adjudication have not been duly considered during the preparation of EU instruments in the field of AI and further regulation as well as research will be necessary.
A General Overview of Artificial Intelligence and Its Current Implications in Civil Law
Authors:   Sapientia Hungarian University of Transylvania (Cluj-Napoca, Romania), Veress Emőd
Published: February 2025

In the course of this study the author briefly presents some of the major issues raised by the prospect of artificial intelligence (AI) development in the field of civil law. Firstly, problems posed by possible AI agents acting for a natural or legal person principal are analysed, with the conclusion that as of yet liability for damage caused by the AI both to the parties of the juridical act concluded by the artificial agent, and to any third parties remains with the owner or operator of the AI, with all the injustices this situation entails. Secondly situations of liability for damage caused by use of an AI system for aiding decision-making are presented. It is shown that liability gaps exist in such situations due to lack of regulation. Thirdly the possibility of AI held (mostly non-pecuniary) intellectual rights is analysed, which in the light of current regulation and recent foreign case law seems excluded. Finally, the possibility of granting legal personality to AI systems is raised as a possible solution to the aforementioned dilemmas. It is shown that this would be only an apparent solution, while legal personality for AI would entail greater risks, and is therefore to be avoided. It is concluded that further research and regulation may be necessary to resolve the problems that were identified.
A Sketch of the Anglo-Saxon Roots of Constitutional Identity
Authors:   National University of Public Service (Budapest, Hungary), Boros Luca
Published: February 2025

Constitutional identity has become a focal point of Hungarian political and public discourse in recent years and is increasingly being discussed also in the European dialogue. More and more people are familiar with the meaning and value of the concept in Hungarian public law, but perhaps fewer are aware of the Anglo-Saxon roots of the concept of constitutional identity. My paper aims to summarize the latter (only sketchily, given that the subject matter of the paragraphs of this paper could fill books), providing a starting point for contemporary arguments and reasoning.
Preliminary Chamber According to the Latest Amendments to the Criminal Procedure Code
Authors:   Sapientia Hungarian University of Transylvania (Cluj-Napoca, Romania), Crișan Eugen Gheorghe
Published: February 2025

The author examines the Romanian procedure before the preliminary chamber during the penal (criminal) procedure as regulated by current legal norms. The basis of the examination is formed by the requirements for a fair trial in the course of penal justice, especially from the perspective of the specific objections which may only be raised in the preliminary phase of the procedure. The author concludes that the preliminary chamber procedure may be optimized under several aspects in order to ensure a better, more efficient approach to the criminal trial.

Published: February 2025

The constitutional development in Czechoslovakia, Yugoslavia, and Poland was turbulent from their birth in 1918 until the fall of the communist regime. It can be said that during this period of time a significant number of acts of constitutional nature have been adopted in the mentioned countries and that Yugoslavia certainly had the most dynamic constitutional development adopting one constitutional act in each decade. All these acts of constitutional character inevitably regulated the position of the head of state introducing certain particular legal solutions such as the election of the head of state with the participation of the Council of Electors and the outgoing President in Poland or the existence of the collective and individual head of state at the same time with certain overlapping prerogatives in Yugoslavia. The aim of this article is to examine the position of the head of state, taking into consideration every act of constitutional nature adopted in the above mentioned countries and particularly dealing with issues such as the election, term of office, termination of office, prerogatives, and accountability of the head of state with the intent to determine the specificities, similarities, and, above all, differences in this regard.

Authors: Iñiguez-Carrillo Adriana L. , Alonso-Jiménez Perla E. , Aréchiga Daniel , Rangel-Romero Miguel A.
Published: February 2025

In this research, the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) is implemented in an augmented reality navigation system within an educational institution. This system provides a navigation tool that facilitates the location and access to various areas and services of the university campus, such as classrooms, auditoriums, the library, the computer center, and administrative offices. TAM is applied to measure how students and staff interact with the system, assessing its effectiveness and their overall willingness to adopt it for campus navigation. The results reflect a generally positive acceptance of the project, although divided percentages reveal both support for the initiative and the identification of critical areas for improvement. This analysis validates the project's development and implementation and underscores the importance of optimizing certain aspects to ensure more effective and satisfying adoption. The contributions of this work include a deeper understanding of how different user groups perceive and adopt emerging technologies, as well as specific recommendations for improving the design of AR systems in educational environments.
Review on Enhancing Hands-on Learning through Virtual Learning Environment Technologies (AR&VR) for Skill Development in Teacher Education Programme
Authors: Danmali Sanusi Sani , Ogunlade Prof. Oyeronke O , Abdullahi Ahmad
Published: February 2025

This paper systematically reviews 143 studies on the use of Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) to enhance hands-on learning in teacher education Programme. The analysis focuses on five key areas: the effectiveness of Virtual technologies in hands-on learning, integration in skill acquisition, learning environments for student engagement in entrepreneurial skills, and VR’s role in pedagogical strategies for practical skill teaching. Findings indicate a varied emphasis on practical training within Nigerian teacher education, with teaching practice and lesson planning receiving the most attention. Research on Virtual in skill acquisition mainly targets vocational, business, and economics education, primarily conducted by university-affiliated researchers. Despite significant academic interest, practical application remains limited, highlighting a gap between research and implementation. Studies on Virtual learning environments suggest that most research emphasizes post-graduation skills, often misaligned with current curricula, with more frequent investigations in colleges of education than universities. Evidence supports VR’s effectiveness in teaching practical skills, showing substantial documentation of VR’s diverse applications in enhancing educational outcomes. The review concludes that Virtual technologies have significant potential to transform hands-on learning and skill acquisition in teacher education, provided they are implemented thoughtfully and supported by adequate training and resources. Key findings include the positive impact of Virtual on student learning outcomes, motivation, interaction, and reduced learning anxiety. The review emphasizes the need for comprehensive teacher training, larger sample sizes, and exploration of factors such as learner engagement and satisfaction to maximize the benefits of these technologies in creating dynamic, engaging, and effective learning experiences that prepare students for professional success.

Authors: Ahmad B El-Yaqub, , Ismail Yahaya
Published: February 2025

This study investigates the impact of digital currency on deposit money banks in Nigeria from 2010 to 2023. Employing a quantitative approach, the study utilizes econometric analysis, specifically the Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) method, to examine the relationship between digital currency transactions, money supply, interest rates, and deposit money bank performance. The study addresses the stationarity of time series variables through unit root tests and employs the Johansen cointegration test to determine long-term equilibrium relationships. The Error Correction Mechanism (ECM) model is then estimated to analyze the dynamic adjustment process. The findings reveal a significant negative impact of digital currency transactions on deposit money, while money supply and interest rates exhibit positive correlations. The study concludes with policy recommendations for navigating the evolving landscape of digital finance in Nigeria.

Authors: Villalobos-López José Antonio
Published: February 2025

The general objective of this work is to analyse the Political Constitution of the United Mexican States (CPEUM) from an economic vision or approach; the study is framed under the deductive method, a hermeneutic paradigm and a descriptive and qualitative approach; statistical analysis is not carried out in this work. The CPEUM is composed of 136 articles. The economic Constitution or economic constitutional law is the set of norms and principles that are incorporated into the general Constitution, which concentrate the economic and financial relations between individuals and companies and the State. The economic part of the CPEUM is found in the block of articles 25, 26, 27 and 28, as well as in article 123 referring to the labour relationship. In addition, it is to be found in numbers 31 (section IV), 73 (sections VII, VIII, X, XXV, XXVIII, XXIX, XXIX-D, XXIX-E, XXIX-F), 74 (sections IV, VI, VII), 79 (heading), 115 (section IV), 117 (section VIII), 131 (initial paragraph) and 134 (initial paragraph), 3 (second paragraph), 4 (third, fourth and seventh paragraphs) and 5 (third paragraph).

Published: February 2025

This study aimed to compare the social adaptation and skill levels of siblings of children with autism and those of typically developing (TD) children. The sample consisted of 96 mothers, with 48 mothers of children with autism and 48 mothers of TD children. The Social Adaptation and Skills Scale (SASS) was used to assess the children’s social adaptation and skills. Results indicated a significant difference in the SASS total scores between the two groups of siblings (Z = -3.253, p = 0.001). Significant differences were also found in the sub-dimensions of “Impulsivity” (Z = -3.541, p = 0.001), “Attention and Hyperactivity” (Z = -3.361, p = 0.001), “Social Relationships” (Z = -2.189, p = 0.029), and “Emotional State” (Z = -2.528, p = 0.011). These findings suggest that siblings of children with autism face challenges in multiple areas, leading to lower SASS scores compared to siblings of TD children. The results highlight the importance of involving the entire family in the education and rehabilitation process.

Published: February 2025

The Ayta Magbukun is a prominent indigenous group inhabiting the Bataan Peninsula. This study aims to gain insight into the community's awareness and perspectives on mental health, as well as the challenges they face, given the limited information and resources readily available on their end. Using an ethnographic approach, the study was conducted through careful observations and field work, employing five voluntary tribe members selected through convenience sampling. The study revealed significant challenges in the community's ability to obtain formal mental health assistance and relevant information about mental health among Filipino indigenous people.
The findings revealed that the Ayta Magbukun have a basic understanding of mental health, but their overall awareness remains limited. They mainly rely on traditional health care practices, and face challenges in accessing formal mental health services and acquiring mental health literacy. The study identified three main themes about their 1) Mental Health Awareness, 2) use of Alternative Healing, highlighting the community's reliance and preference for traditional practices; and 3) existing Barriers to Wellness that hinder their access to mental health resources. It is suggested that the community's psychological perspectives and socioeconomic conditions can significantly affect their ability to achieve overall well-being. Also, it highlights the need for culturally appropriate mental health programs and accessible mental healthcare for the Ayta Magbukun as well as for other indigenous communities in the Philippines. Generally, the paper contributes to the broader discussion of indigenous mental health and Filipino psychology by advocating for approaches that align with culturally appropriate indigenous perspectives on mental health, promoting resilience and holistic wellness in these communities.
Knowledge, Attitude and Practice of Traditional and Religious Leaders Towards Girl Child Marriage in Sokoto State, Nigeria
Authors: Khalid Suleman , Maigemu Ahmad Yahaya , Jega Aliyu Musa
Published: February 2025

Early marriage, a marriage conducted before the age of 18, is now widely recognized to be deeply rooted in socio-cultural, economic and religious fabrics of society in which it prevails. This paper examines the knowledge, attitude and practice of the traditional and religious leaders towards girl child marriage in Sokoto State, Nigeria. The study relied heavily on the open-ended tradition of participatory and qualitative research tools, using specifically in-depth interviews (IDI). Interviews were conducted with a total of 48 respondents made up of 18 religious leaders and 30 traditional leaders. The study finds that there appears to be a marked difference between the attitude of rural and urban religious and traditional leaders towards early marriage. The urban religious leaders appear to have a more favorable attitude towards girl-child education which translates into delayed marriage until age 18. Enrolment and retention of girl child in formal school is the most neutral and non-controversial route to rising age at marriage.
Skepticism as a Barrier to Evidence Collection
Authors: Davis Michael Joseph
Published: February 2025

Comprehensive evidence collection in cases of sex crimes is of vital importance to obtaining convictions in a court of law, and in such cases testimonial evidence is often crucial to understanding the nature of the criminal violation as well as the scope and range of further possible evidence that may be gathered. Research has shown that when police are openly suspicious of victim testimony, or otherwise exhibit disregard, judgment, or hostility to victim reports and information, the evidence collection becomes less comprehensive as a result. However, by utilizing trauma-informed interviewing techniques, law enforcement can more successfully elicit information from victims that may be vital in better understanding the facts of  a case, and to make a more comprehensive and exhaustive collection of evidence relevant to a case. Because victims in these sensitive types of crime are often already hesitant, traumatized, and confused – and because many sex crime cases involve alcohol or other drugs – law enforcement is best advised to exercise discretion and patience with victims during any type of information receipt or interrogatory related to a possible or alleged crime.
Some Manifestations of Polytheism in Common Traditions in Afghan Society
Authors: Shoaib Faruqi Mohammad , Obaidulrahman Obaidulrahman , Muhsin Ayubi Muhammad
Published: February 2025

Polytheism manifests in prevalent customs and traditions in forms that can affect sincere faith. These manifestations polytheism include superstitions, reliance on non-divine supernatural forces, and rituals that imply dependence on entities other than God. Such behaviors may lead to deviation from monotheism and negatively impact society. A scientific analysis of these phenomena is essential to identify weaknesses and propose effective solutions to strengthen monotheistic beliefs. A thorough examination of these issues can contribute to raising awareness and correcting false beliefs.
Repositioning Civic and Counseling Education for Improving Psychosocial Development of Orphaned Children in Orphanage Homes in Nigeria
Authors: Williams-Oladapo Omolara , Adediran Amos
Published: February 2025

The repositioning of civic and counseling education
with a specific focus on enhancing the psychosocial
development of orphaned children in Nigerian
orphanage homes, especially Nigeria is not only a moral
imperative but also a transformative societal opportunity.
This paper explores the potential of customizing the
curriculum, providing specialized training for educators,
fostering nurturing and inclusive environments, engaging
the community, and establishing collaborative
partnerships to address the unique needs of orphaned
children. By doing so, one can equip these vulnerable
individuals with knowledge, essential life skills, and
emotional resilience. This approach empowers them not
only to overcome adversity but also to emerge as active,
responsible citizens capable of contributing meaningfully
to society. Ultimately, this holistic strategy not only
enriches the lives of orphaned children but also sets the
stage for a more compassionate and just society, where
every member has the opportunity to thrive and make a
positive impact. The study therefore recommended that
government and relevant stakeholders should prioritize
the inclusion of psychosocial support components in the
civic and counseling education curriculum for orphanage
homes.

Evaluation of Ohio Agricultural Education Students’ Performance and User Experience in a Virtual Reality Machinery Safety Experience
Authors: Pulley Justin , Jepsen Dee , Bowling Amanda , Kitchel Tracy
Published: February 2025

Agriculture is one of the most hazardous industries in the United States for all workers, and even more so for young workers. In the U.S., legislation prescribes training for youth under the age of 16 working in hazardous situations in production agriculture. Virtual Reality (VR) technology has become an increasingly popular means of deploying training for various disciplines. The purpose of this study was to determine the feasibility of a VR curriculum to provide a realistic and positive user experience for students in tractor and machinery safety operation lessons. The VR curriculum developed for the study was based on the National Safe Tractor and Machinery Operation Program. Ohio Agricultural Education students’ (n = 132) user experience data were analyzed, and found students had a positive experience in the virtual reality training. Results indicated that students had a positive user experience from the VR experience. Performance data from agricultural education students resulted in poor scores during the precheck and driving course. Finally, two groups of students comparing traditional training versus training using the VR experience resulted in a non-significant difference between the pass/fail rates. The implications of these findings suggest VR can provide a supplemental training method for tractor and machinery programs. It is recommended that this study be replicated with a larger sample of students as well as the evaluation of other VR-based educational experiences.
Vanilla lindmaniana and V. palmarum (Orchidaceae) are distinct allopatric species
Authors: Pansarin Emerson R.
Published: February 2025

Background and aims – With more than 40 species, Brazil is the centre of diversity for Vanilla. Despite the species richness, few studies on species boundaries involving Brazilian taxa have been carried out. Consequently, many species have been synonymized under taxa with a wider distribution. This is the case for V. lindmaniana, a species currently synonymized under V. palmarum. While studying the diversity of Brazilian Vanilla, differences between plants from the Amazonia/Cerrado/Pantanal and Caatinga/Atlantic Forest Biomes were recorded.

Material and methods – Detailed descriptions based on herbaria specimens and living material of V. lindmaniana and V. palmarum are provided and a morphological comparison is given. Illustrations of both species based on living plants is provided, and their geographic distributions are presented.

Key results – Plants occurring in the Amazon, Cerrado, and Pantanal Biomes correspond to V. lindmaniana, while V. palmarum occurs in the Caatinga and Atlantic Forest Biomes. Vanilla lindmaniana is distinguished from V. palmarum by several vegetative and reproductive characteristics, such as the size of leaves and flower structures, and the shape of the fruits. Characteristics associated to pollination strongly differ between both taxa. Vanilla lindmaniana is ornithophilous, while the labellar morphology of V. palmarum suggests pollination by bees. Both species occur as epiphytes on palms: Vanilla lindmaniana predominantly on Acrocomia, Attalea, and Mauritia, while V. palmarum on Elaeis and Syagrus. Both V. lindmaniana and V. palmarum are assessed as Endangered.

Conclusion – Appraisal of reproductive and vegetative characteristics from living specimens is crucial in delimitating species boundaries in Vanilla. Species delimitation based on ecological divergencies, plus geographic disjunctions have advanced the current evaluation and understanding of diversity in this economically and ecologically important orchid genus. All evidence reveals that V. lindmaniana is distinct from V. palmarum. Vanilla palmarum is endemic to Brazil, while V. lindmaniana is widely distributed throughout South America.

Published: February 2025

Background; Breast cancer is a disease in which certain cells become abnormal and develop abnormally and become tumors in the breast.

Research method: the method used is descriptive by looking at the CA 15-3 level values ​​before and after breast cancer surgery. The sample used was 50 respondents at the Muhammadiyah Kebumen Hospital on outpatient treatment in 2024. The analysis used was frequency distribution analysis and Paired t-test.

Research result; The higher the age of the patient, the more breast cancer there is, reaching 62% or 31 out of 50 respondents, the number of cases above normal is 72% and post-operative cases the value is above normal in 84%. The significance value of CA 15-3 levels before and after mastectomy surgery was obtained at p = 0.003, this means that there is a difference in CA15-3 levels between before and after breast cancer mastectomy surgery.

Conclusion; The CA 15-3 level values ​​before and after breast cancer surgery are mostly still above normal and are a biomarker for breast cancer, although there are differences in the CA 15-3 level values.

Authors: Abasi Cyprian Yameso , Aliene Onyinyechi Gift , Yabiteighha Sheila
Published: February 2025

The sorption equilibrium of characterized bio-filled waste PET(RIC-1) bottle composites was investigated. Composites were made by melt-mixing of PET(RIC-1) matrix and bio-fillers as crab shell, clay, and chitin. The adsorption capacities of the binary and ternary composites for Fe (III) ions were determined through equilibrium methods from adsorption isotherm models. In terms of equilibrium isotherm application, the ternary composites PET/CHITIN/CLAY and PET/CBS/CLAY fitted best with the Langmuir isotherm (R2 = 0.9861) than the Freundlich isotherm (R2 = 0.9411). The Freundlich isotherm was better suited to the binary composites PET/CBS and PET/CLAY; the physisorption conformity suggested from the Freundlich isotherm was confirmed by the high Polanyi potential (Ɛ2) values greater than 40 kJ/mol in the Dubinin-Radushkevich isotherm. Overall, the findings demonstrate the potential of these composites for adsorption applications and thus open a route of use of PET waste that has become an environmental pollution threat.

Published: February 2025

Background: Surgical site infections (SSIs) are infectious complications associated with all surgical procedures, occurring within 30 days post-operation or up to 90 days. The prevalence of SSIs varies and comprehensive data collection on their incidence is lacking. This study aims to determine the difference in inflammation and thyroid surgical site infections between groups with and without prophylactic antibiotics. Methods: This research is a retrospective cohort study, where data will be obtained from secondary sources in medical records. The data collected includes age, gender, ASEPSIS scores, type of surgery, duration of surgery, length of hospital stay, incidence of inflammation, infection, type of antibiotic, and administration procedure. Descriptive statistical analysis, Chi-Square Test, independent t-test, and Mann-Whitney test were conducted using IBM SPSS version 26. Results: The results of the study showed the mean age to be over 50 years, with the majority being female. The ASEPSIS score for the antibiotic group had a mean of 11.15±8.31, while the non-antibiotic group had a mean of 11.92±6.10 (p=0.766). The median duration of surgery for both groups was 1 hour (ranging from 1 to 3 hours). The antibiotic used was Cefazolin, administered at a dose of 1 gram 30 minutes before surgery, followed by 1 gram every 8 hours for 24 hours post-operation intravenously. The incidence of inflammation had an OR of 3.44 (95% CI 0.52-22.43), p=0.185. The incidence of local infection had an OR of 1.65 (95% CI 0.22-11.99), p=0.619. Conclusions: This study concludes there is no difference in the levels of inflammation and thyroid surgical site infections between the groups receiving prophylactic antibiotics and those not receiving prophylactic antibiotics.

Authors: Younis Hana
Published: February 2025

Gifts, as a distinct historical reflection of time and space, have drawn the attention of the social sciences and humanities for many centuries. As unique examples, they speak not only about the giver but also about the recipient. Their presence reflects the political and economic landscape, as well as the diplomatic skills practiced during that period. Exactly through this prism, the author explores the gifts received and given under specific circumstances related to various events in Dirʿiyyah, the capital of the first Saudi State, in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. By analyzing these gifts, the study uncovers the diplomatic prowess and relationship of the authorities in Dirʿiyyah with the Ottoman sultan, as well as the economic power, political independence, and adept diplomacy of the ruling Saud family.
