Published: June 2022

The development of forage crops in Indonesia is directed at lands that are less productive for food crops, marginal land, and critical land, known as sub-optimal land. The research was carried out in Karangasem Regency: West Seraya, Seraya, and East Seraya Village which are Karangasem District, and Dukuh, Sukadana, and Tianyar Village, which are Kubu District. The number of respondents involved in this study were 20 farmers in each village, so the total number were 120 people. The data obtained were presented and analyzed descriptively. From the observations, it was found that the botanical composition of native pasture for the Seraya location found the presence of Panicum maximum grass that spreads on farmers' arable land and rudera areas. The types of shrub legumes used as hedgerows are Gliricidia sepium, Leucaena leucocephala, and Calliandra calothyrsus. The proportion of feed availability of shrub legumes, especially on hedgerows, is dominated by G. sepium. It can be concluded that the diversity of forage on sub optimal land is a potential in efforts to provide and fulfill bali cattle feed throughout the year, and the development of bali cattle and the availability of forage is dominated by shrub legumes, especially G. sepium and tree species.

Comin’ Out the Broom Closet: Appalachian Pagans and Their Queer Future Worlding
Authors: Pendygraft Caleb
Published: June 2022

This expositional article offers the term “pagan” through which to imagine the future of queer Appalachia. Meaning “person of the place” and eventually “of the country,” “heathen,” or “hick,” “pagan” provides a framework that resists national narratives about Appalachia and defies those cisheteropatriarchal narratives from within our region. Albeit only a beginning and incomplete, this article provides a lexical survey of pagan-worlding, a queer neologism that I coin here as a creative, enacted performance of place-based vernation that resists anthropocentrism. I write on four axioms of pagan-worlding and their implications for a queer Appalachia: storytelling modalities as worldmaking, land-based ontologies and their connection to identity, immanent sacrality in lieu of salvational transcendence, and non-human and human inter-reliance. I suggest that the future of Appalachia requires a multiplicitous understanding of the world around us, one that sees non-human actors as critical players and demands that we queer how we relate to the land. I propose that a pagan future is a queer one because it speculates that non-humans have intimate, queer bonds with Appalachians, and we must rethink and see these relations as necessary for the future of Appalachia.
Sobre la imputación objetiva en Derecho Penal
Authors: Sánchez Gallego José Félix
Published: June 2022

La teoría de la imputación objetiva es un instrumento de superlativa importancia para la realización de los tipos penales, puesto que proporciona criterios normativos con los cuales es posible determinar si tienen ocasión la imputación de la conducta y del resultado; con lo cual se distancia de la causalidad que se ocupa de asuntos naturalísticos que, en buena parte de las veces, no interesan al Derecho penal.  En todo caso, la causalidad puede ser considerada como un punto a examinar, de manera previa, a abordar las cuestiones que incumben a la imputación objetiva. Pese a la importancia de la referida teoría, es poco lo que hemos adelantado para su materialización en nuestro medio, por ende, es preceptivo emprender algunas reflexiones sobre la misma en esta oportunidad, con miras al examen de sus dimensiones y propiciar, en alguna forma, su concreción.

EPISTEMIC INJUSTICE AND HYBRID EVIL IN POLITICAL EPISTEMOLOGY
Authors: KILINÇ Yurdagül
Published: June 2022

This study claims that Miranda Fricker’s concept of epistemic injustice can be extended in two ways. First, the excess of credibility can be evaluated as an epistemic injustice. Fricker suggests that a deflated level of credibility causes epistemic injustice. However, practices such as forcing false statements result from excess credibility and cause epistemic injustices especially during war and detention processes. In some hierarchical situations, social actors’ hearer and speaker roles may turn into a hegemonic relationship by suggesting that the speaker has knowledge. This kind of relationship motivates exclusion, marginalization and alienation due to identity bias. Then, it can be argued that not only the lack of credibility but also its excess is an epistemic injustice. In this study, the excess of credibility is accepted as the situation faced by “people who are interrogated with the claim of having knowledge.” Second, epistemic injustice can be defined as a hybrid evil. It refers to instances of evil that contain complex motivations such as political evil, since it can neither be reduced only to the character nor to the environmental conditions. Fricker’s proposal for resolving epistemic injustice is hybrid virtues such as intellectual and reflexive critical-social sensitivity. Therefore, while individuals’ situations and context provide reflexive thinking, they also support a normative critical attitude. Fricker offers hybrid virtues for the solution while she does not define the problem as hybrid. Thus this paper proposes to extend Fricker’s concept in two ways: first, including excess of credibility within the scope of the epistemic injustice, and second, defining such injustices as political hybrid evils. Then this expansion will give political epistemology an opportunity to reevaluate given theories of politics, ethics and epistemology and increase its normative contribution to them.
Enhancing Students’ Problem-solving Skills through Project-based Learning
Authors: Karan Ebrahim , Brown Lisa
Published: June 2022

The goal of the study is to overcome two main drawbacks of traditional science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) pedagogical strategies using PBL - lack of student engagement and students who are not prepared for more complex problems. PBL teaching strategies practiced in an introductory class are assessed. Classroom observations and student surveys are used to determine at what level does the PBL affect students’ problem-solving skills. For the first half of the semester of the course, traditional lectures were used, during the second half, students are divided into experimental (PBL strategy) and control groups. The results of the survey and student grades are analyzed to determine a statistically significant difference between pre/post-study results. From the students’ perspective, there is a significant mean difference between their confidence level in solving problems before and after using PBL and the students earned higher grades compared to the students in the control group.

Bu makalede, Orta Asya’nın Güney Sogdiana Bölgesi Kaşkaderya Nehri yakınında Demir Çağı’nda gelişmiş Yerkurgan Şehir Harabesi’nde Özbek ve Türk bilim adamlarının ortaklığında 2018 yılında gerçekleştirilen arkeolojik kazı çalışmalarından elde edilen veriler değerlendirildi. Tarihi Buhara- Nahşeb (Nesef) şehirleri arasında İpek Yolu üzerinde bulunan Orta Asya’nın en eski ve büyük şehirlerinden biri olan Yerkurgan Şehir Harabesi’nin ortasında gün yüzüne çıkarılan Merkez Tapınağı kalıntısı muhtemelen Zerdüştçülük ile bağlantılı su-nehir ve ateş ilahlarına adanmıştı. Muhtemelen tapınak ilk yapıldığında merkezi planlı iken sonradan üzerinde ateş altarı bulunan kutsal açık hava platformuna dönüştürüldü. Büyük Merkez Tapınağı ile yanındaki küçük Doğu Tapınağı ve aralarındaki açık hava dinsel törenlerinde kullanılan ateş altarı kaidesi, Pencikent tapınakları gibi Zerdüştçülük inancı ile bağlantılı resmi dinsel bir kompleks oluşturmaktaydı. Bu dinsel kompleks muhtemelen Geç Antik Çağ’da oluşmuştur. Muhtemelen tapınaklar öncesinde şehrin ortası kutsal bir alandı ve burada ateş kültü ile bağlantılı açık hava resmi dinsel törenleri yapılmaktaydı.

Tuzluluk, gelişmiş bitkilerde verimliliği sınırlandıran önemli abiyotik stres faktörlerindendir. Tuzluluğa maruz kalan bitkilerde görülen besin maddesi dengesizliği, hücre bütünlüğünün bozulmasına neden olmakta, bu durum ise bitkiler için hayati olan metabolik fonksiyonların bozulmasına yol açmaktadır. İki yıl tekrarlamalı olarak yapılan çalışmada; 18 litrelik saksılarda bulunan OHxF 97, OHxF 333, Fox 11 ve BA 29 anaçlarında kontrol, 20 mM, 40 mM ve 80 mM NaCl içeren sulama suyu ile stres oluşturulmuştur. İki ayın sonunda alınan yaprak örneklerinde Fe3+, Cu2+, Mn2+, Zn2+ ve B+ mikro element içerikleri saptanmıştır. Araştırma sonuçlarına göre NaCl stresi altında farklı armut ve ayva anaçlarında Fe3+, Cu2+, Mn2+, Zn2+ ve B+ mikro element içerikleri anaçlara ve tuz kostantrasyonuna bağlı olarak yıllara göre değişkenlikler göstermiştir. Genel olarak şiddetli (80 mM) tuz stresi altında mikro element içeriklerinin daha düşük olduğu belirlenmiştir. İki yıl ortalamasına göre tuzlu koşullarda toplam mikro element alımı yaklaşık %6 oranında azalmıştır. Her iki yılda da tuz stresi altında B+ elementi alımının azaldığı saptanmıştır. Çalışmada Fe3+ ve Mn2+ alımında Fox 11 ve BA 29 anaçları; Zn2+ ve Cu2+alımında Fox 11 anacı ve B+ alımında OHxF 97 ve OHxF 333 anaçları ön plana çıkmıştır.

Published: June 2022

Since prehistoric times, plants have been used as medicine and foodstuff across the world. The Cucurbitaceae family includes the Bitter Melon, Momordica charantia. The bitter melon plant is a vine with green leaves and yellow blooms, and the cucumber-like fruit is rectangular and green. It has been used as food and medicine for millennia in the Amazon, Asia, South America, India, East Africa, and the Caribbean. The name "Momordica" derives from the Latin word mordica, which means "to bite," and refers to the notched margins of the leaf that appear to have been bitten. The plant, also known as "bitter melon" or "bitter gourd," lives truly the case to its common name by being exceedingly bitter throughout, including the fruit. This review seeks to offer information on the distribution and cultivation of bitter gourd and also explain the chemical constituents and their biological or pharmacological activity of herbal drugs of Momordica charantia Linn. (Cucurbitaceae). Our first goal was to understand more about the different pharmacological activity of the plant and the mode of action through which the activity is responsible. This review gives a thorough knowledge of traditional use of Momordica charantia with its detailed botanical description. Momordica charantia includes a large number of chemically distinct compounds, needing intensive screening processes to determine the pharmacological effects of its phytoconstituents at the molecular level. Furthermore, the paper highlights the medicinal potential of its bioactive components as well as their use in value-added food items. It has the power to fight against numerous lifestyle-related ailments, such as cancer recurrence, diabetes mellitus, abdominal pain, kidney (stone), fever, and scabies, due to the presence of bioactive chemicals.
SOSYAL MEDYA’YA YÖNELİK YENİ DÜZENLEMELERİN HUKUKEN DEĞERLENDİRİLMESİ
Authors: KULULAR IBRAHIM Merve Aysegul
Published: June 2022

Bireylerin içerik oluşturup paylaşıp yorumlayabildikleri online platformlara ilgi artmıştır. Twitter, YouTube, Facebook, bloglar, forumlar gibi platformlar üzerinden kişilerin, bizzat kendilerince paylaştıkları içerikler gerek kendi kişilik haklarına gerek başkalarının kişilik haklarına zarar verici nitelikte olabilmektedir. Örneğin sosyal medya platformlarında yapılan paylaşımlar bireyler üzerinde sonradan telafisi mümkün olmayan zararlara neden olabilmekte, kamu düzenini ihlal ederek kişileri suça teşvik edebilmektedir. Sosyal medyaya yönelik yapılan düzenlemeler, sosyal medya üzerinden işlenen suçlar karşısında veya sosyal medyada gerçekleşen hak ihlallerini engellemede yeterli olamamıştır. Bu yetersizlik; teknik imkansızlıklar, hukuk kuralarının ülke hudutları ile sınırlı olmasına karşın internetin ülke hudutlarını aşan yapısı, hukuka aykırılıkların gerçekleştiği sosyal medya platformlarının ticari menfaatlerini önemseyerek ihlalleri giderme konusunda isteksiz davranmaları, mevcut düzenlemelerin bilgi teknolojilerindeki hızlı ilerlemelerin gerisinde kalması gibi nedenlerden kaynaklanmıştır. Bu nedenle Almanya başta olmak üzere Avrupa Birliği üyesi ülkelerde ve ülkemizde sosyal medya platformlarında hukuka aykırılıkları giderici iyileştirme çalışmaları gündeme gelmiştir. Bu kapsamda sosyal medya platformlarının sorumluluklarının artırılmasına ilişkin olarak ülkemizde 5651 sayılı İnternet Ortamında Yapılan Yayınların Düzenlenmesi ve Bu Yayınlar Yoluyla İşlenen Suçlarla Mücadele Edilmesi Hakkında Kanun’da değişiklik yapılmıştır. Yapılan değişiklikler sosyal ağ sağlayıcılarının temsilci ataması, uyarı yöntemi ile içeriğin yayından çıkarılması başvurusu, verilerin Türkiye’deki sunucularda saklanması şeklinde sosyal ağ platformlarının hukuka aykırı içerikler karşısında sorumluluk ve yükümlerinin belirlenmesine yöneliktir. Yeni düzenlemelerin sosyal medya platformları üzerindeki etkisi zamanla kendini gösterecektir. Sosyal medya şirketlerinin hukuka aykırılıkları önlememesi halinde yeni yaptırımların öngörülmesi ya da mevcut yaptırımların ağırlaştırılması gerekecektir.

Published: June 2022

Kent içi açık yeşil alanlar içerisinde yer alan çocuk oyun alanları en çok tercih edilen rekreasyonel alanlardandır. Bu alanlar kullanıcıların yaşam kalitesini artırıcı etkiye sahiptir. Lakin günümüzde artan konut ihtiyacından dolayı kentlerde ki yeşil alanların azaldığı hatta imar planlarında yeşil alanlara yeterince yer verilmediği görülmektedir. Bu nedenle çocukların yeşil alan ve rekreasyonel aktivite ihtiyaçları için kentsel boşluk alanları sıklıkla kullanılmaya başlanmıştır. Rekreatif ihtiyaçlara uygun olmamasına rağmen ölçek yetersizliği durumunda bile standartlara uygun olmayan çocuk oyun alanı tasarımlar yapılmaktadır. Kent içerisinde ulaşım aksı üzerinde yer alan ve kentsel boşluk alanlarında oluşturulan çocuk oyun alanlarının kullanımı ve yeterliliği çalışmanın ana amacı olup gözlem ve anket yöntemleri kullanılarak uygun tasarım önerileri geliştirilmiştir. Rize’de konut yoğunluğunun fazla olduğu Fener Mahallesi ulaşım aksları üzerinde yer alan, nitelik ve nicelik bakımından 3 farklı çocuk oyun alanı çalışmada ele alınmıştır. Çalışmanın sonucunda seçilen çocuk oyun alanlarındaki geleneksel çocuk oyun alanı donatılarına yer verildiği, yer seçiminde kentsel boşluk alanlarının kullanıldığı, çocuk oyun alanı tasarımlarında yaş grubu ayrımının yapılmadığı ve yapılacak oyun etkinliklerinde çeşitliliğe gidilmediği tespit edilmiştir. Bunun yanı sıra çocuk oyun alanlarındaki bitkilendirme tasarımının yetersizliği ve yapısal alanların bakımsızlığı kentin imajını olumsuz yönde etkilediği görülmüştür. Çalışmanın ikinci aşamasında ise çocukların ve ebeveynlerin güvenlik ihtiyaçları ele alınmıştır. Yapılan bu çalışmalar doğrultusunda fiziksel ve zihinsel gelişimini teşvik edici tasarımların yapılması için bilimsel, ekolojik, teknik (ulaşılabilirlik, kullanılabilirlik vb.) kriterlerin yanı sıra çocuk oyun alanı tasarım kriterleri dikkate alınarak öneriler sunulmuştur.

Authors: TOKMAK Gizem , YILDIZ Melih
Published: June 2022

Reklamların başarılı olarak değerlendirilebilmesi için reklamı izleyen kişide ürüne/markaya karşı olumlu bir tutum geliştirebilmesi, satın alma niyeti oluşturabilmesi ve kişiye ürünü/markayı hatırlatıcı nitelikte olması gerekmektedir. Bu kriterleri sağlayan reklamlar etkin olarak değerlendirilmektedir. Reklamlarda etkinlik sağlamak için reklamcılar mesaj kaynağı olarak çoğu zaman ünlü kişi ve/veya çekici model kullanma yoluna giderek tüketicilerin dikkatini çekmeye çalışmaktadırlar. Oysaki ünlü kişi veya çekici model gibi mesaj kaynaklarının etkinlik sağlayabilmeleri için ürün/marka ile uyumu, daha önce yer aldığı ürün/marka reklamlarından oluşan reklam portföyü, ürün kategorisi vb. unsurların göz önünde bulundurulması gerekmektedir. Bu gibi unsurlar göz önünde bulundurulmadığı zaman, sırf çekici veya ünlü olduğu için seçilen mesaj kaynaklarının reklamdaki ürünün/markanın önüne geçerek tüm dikkati üzerinde toplaması, ürün/marka hakkında tüketici zihninde herhangi bir şey oluşturmaması riski bulunmaktadır. Bu çalışmanın amacı reklamlarda yer alan ünlü kişi ve ünlü olmayan çekici model gibi mesaj kaynakları, marka aşinalığı ve reklam izleyicisi cinsiyetinin reklam etkinliği unsurları üzerinde bir fark oluşturup oluşturmadığını tespit etmektedir. Çalışmada bir soğuk çay markasının ünlü kişi, ünlü kişiyle benzer çekicilikteki tanınmamış model ve herhangi bir mesaj kaynağı olmayan üç farklı reklam versiyonu kullanılmıştır. Çalışmada veri toplama yöntemi olarak deney ve anket bir arada yapılmıştır. Çalışma amacına yönelik yapılan Ki-Kare, Kruskal-Wallis ve Mann-Whitney U testleri sonucunda reklamdaki mesaj kaynağının ve izleyici cinsiyetinin reklam etkinliği unsurları üzerinde anlamlı bir farklılık oluşturmadığı tespit edilirken marka aşinalığının, markaya tutum ve satın alma niyeti üzerinde anlamlı bir fark oluşturduğu ortaya çıkmıştır.
The Risks Associated with Banking Muḍārabah, and Ways to Reduce It
Authors: Nasir al-Sawafi Ibrahim
Published: June 2022

Sharīʿah-compliant muḍārabah, which is to pay money to someone who invests it and develops it for a portion of the profit, is one of the best means that Islamic banks and investment companies can use in order to invest their money, finance their clients, and raise capital without introducing new owners to own shares of the bank or company. It is also a means of achieving balance in financial liquidity between receivables and liabilities; however, muḍārabah investment or financing comes with multiple risks that make the executive management of banks and companies reluctant to deal with it. These risks are exemplified in the fear of capital loss, of inability to make a profit, and of the use of funds for purposes other than the investment. These risks should not remain a barrier that prevents its use in investment and financing in a manner that equals, or surpasses, other means of investment and financing. In this research we will examine the solutions proposed to reduce these risks; for example, a third party guarantee of capital or expected profit, and establishing provisions for investment risk and profit rate risk (profit stabilization). This research will be conducted according to three methodologies: inductive, comparative and analytical. The research has reached a number of results. These include that the correct view is the permissibility of renting an asset for a portion of what is produced from it. Also, it is imperative to find legitimate means to invest the compulsory reserve that is held by the Central Bank so that its owners are not deprived of its profits. Also, it is not permissible for the capital owner to require the muḍārib to make a certain minimal percentage of profit or a lump sum. Also, there is an urgent need to create a collective fund among Islamic banks and financial institutions to secure against the potential risks.

Published: June 2022

Financial technology with its divisions and tools is considered one of the fastest economic catalysts in the financial industry, being the main window for innovation and the provision of advanced financial services, Despite the major transformations that have taken place over the decades due to changes in technological systems, economic and political legislation and even geography, many authors have pointed to the birth of a new era of financial services, which will be radically reflected in the financial industry as a whole. Because of the importance of the topic and how new it is for the banking sector, attracting the attention of financial and economic bodies and financial and business leaders in addition to its association to the technology sector, cybersecurity and information network, it was necessary to identify the term financial technology (fintech) and clarify its origin and purpose and track its origin and development and show its relationship to the successive technological revolutions. The research concluded that the sequential and successive developments of each of the industrial revolutions as well as the changes in their biological, physical and digital engines confirm the fact that a new generation of technology will lead to sweeping changes in the nature and future of many sectors including the financial and banking sectors. The digital technological catalyst of the Fourth Industrial Revolution can be considered the main basis for the emergence of new tools, technologies and entities, collectively called financial technology. The term financing technology and financial technology have to be differentiated, as financing technology is part of the fbusiness models of financial technology  and returns to them.

Authors: Abdalla M. Al-Badarin
Published: June 2022

The study aimed to explain the reality of subsequent Sharia supervision in Jordanian Islamic banks, its problems, the requirements for its activation, and present the necessary proposals for its development and activation. The study relied on the descriptive, inductive and deductive approach. The study found that there are problems that impede the activation of subsequent censorship. It also concluded that the Sharia audit, which does not enjoy high independence, carries out subsequent oversight tasks, given the inability of the Sharia Supervisory Board to perform this role Due to insufficient time and human resources. The study presented a proposal to activate the subsequent Sharia oversight, which is based on the complete independence of Sharia supervision through the establishment of a central Sharia control that is provided with all the requirements for doing the work.

The Soviet East through a Ukrainian Lens: The Travelogues of the Ukrainian Expedition to Kyrgyzstan in 1929
Authors: Pupurs Iryna
Published: June 2022

Based on an in-depth reading of the two travelogues written by the leaders of the Soviet Ukrainian expedition to Khan Tengri in the early 1930s, this article investigates the role of Soviet propaganda in determining the economic, social, and cultural modernization of Central Asia. The author analyzes ethnic hierarchies and stereotypes based on these Ukrainian travelers’ descriptions of three populations in the region, namely the Kyrgyz (as natives), the Dungan (as “exotic” migrants from China) and the Ukrainians (as European settlers). The author also draws readers’ attention to the ambivalent role Ukrainians played in the process of colonizing Central Asia.
Soviet “Modernizing” Strategies towards Jews in the Ukrainian Town of Berdychiv
Authors: Kozakevych Bozhena
Published: June 2022

Berdychiv, a traditional center of Jewish culture and religion, was subjected to an intense “modernization” drive after the Soviet seizure of power. The Bolsheviks aimed to create a new society by tearing down old social structures and replacing them with secular, socialist alternatives. But in the early years of the Soviet Union, the question of how to realize this project was still a matter of experimentation. This paper discusses the sovietization efforts in Berdychiv during the 1920s and looks at how they transformed the town. It does so by focusing on the Soviet nationalities and religion policies with respect to the Jewish population, Berdychiv’s largest ethnic group. It argues that the early Soviet leadership managed to create a Jewish proletarian culture and forced a rift between the generations, thus causing lasting changes in the town’s social fabric.

Published: June 2022

Half a century of discussion about a preamble

If the parliament agrees to it in second reading, the Dutch Constitution will be introduced by a general provision: ‘The Constitution guarantees fundamental rights and the democratic constitutional state.’ This concludes a discussion that mainly concerned a preamble. Christian politicians regularly argued for a reference to God in a preamble. Bart Verbrugh argued in the state commission-Cals/Donner for recognition of God‘s authority in the Constitution. The later Thomassen State Commission did not propose a preamble, but a general provision, which was adopted by the government in an abbreviated form.

Authors: Dedík Milan , Bulková Zdenka , Gašparík Jozef , Čechovič Lukáš , Kurenkov Peter
Published: June 2022

The compilation of the periodic timetables in rail passenger transport is currently a new evolving trend that increases the efficiency of rail transport. However, for the development of transport science, it is necessary to constantly develop this system. The paper offers one way to contribute in this area and thus raise and improve this system of organizing rail transport. The aim of the contribution is to propose a methodology that evaluates the level of stability of periodic timetables based on operational and infrastructural factors. The methodology identifies operational-infrastructural factors that affect the stability and reliability of periodic timetables. Using scientific methods, it presents the method of their quantification and determination of the weights of these factors, which evaluate the line sections and transport points of the examined transport route. From a practical point of view, the methodology is generally applicable to other European railway networks. There is practical application of the proposed methodological procedure in the form of model examples for various transport routes in the final part of the paper.
Exemption from a real estate tax on buildings and land related to the accommodation of refugees from Ukraine
Authors: Dowgier Rafał
Published: June 2022

The extraordinary situation in connection with the war in Ukraine and the escape of thousands of Ukrainian nationals to Poland has brought in a number of initiatives at the central and local government levels to support these people. In the context of the need to provide accommodation for the refugees, some municipal councils have adopted resolutions on real estate tax exemptions for the buildings and land connected with the realization of this purpose. This goodwill gesture is primarily symbolic because with regard to residential buildings, the burden of a real estate tax is small. Nevertheless, legal grounds of such an action are still worth considering. The subject of the study is the analysis of admissibility of introducing such exemption by municipal councils and a possible shape of these solutions.
Acquisition of real property from a party which is either insolvent or at risk of insolvency: issues relating to time limits for challenging real property acquisition
Authors: Gil Piotr
Published: June 2022

A debtor at risk of insolvency often sells or encumbers valuable assets and, by doing so, he or she may prevent their creditors from obtaining satisfaction. Where certain prerequisites are met, the
creditors may challenge the legal actions of the debtor relying on ‘actio Pauliana’ (a complaint to set aside fraudulent conveyance) regulated in Article 527 et seq. of the Polish Civil Code. If a debtor is declared bankrupt, the right to challenge fraudulent conveyance to the detriment of the creditors of assets belonging to the bankruptcy estate is exercised by the trustee in bankruptcy.
The acquirer of real property should be aware of the risk related to the acquisition of real property from a party which is either insolvent or at risk of insolvency. The risk assessment should take into account the sanction of relative ineffectiveness in the areas of civil and bankruptcy law as well as risks posed in the area of criminal law.
Real estate management activities owned by the State Treasury and an obligation to report MDR tax schemes
Authors: Owczarczuk Sławomir
Published: June 2022

The prevailing view in the judicature and doctrine is that reporting of tax schemes (the so-called MDR - Mandatory Disclosure Rules) belongs to anti-abusive regulations. This institution, binding in Polish legislation since 1 January 2019, is a partial transposition of the EU Directive. However, its subjective and objective scope, as adopted by the national legislator, is much broader. It also applies to the management of real estate of the State Treasury, which gives rise to controversy as to whether this was the legislator's objective. The hypotheses formulated in the article assume, firstly, that the specifics of non-executive activities of statio fisci and staroste (mayors of cities with county rights) have not been taken into account in the new regulations and tax explanations, which poses certain practical problems. For instance, what is a tax scheme (reportable arrangement) in a private enterprise does not have to be a tax scheme in a statio fisci managing State Treasury property within dominium. Secondly, de lege lata regulations on reporting tax schemes, in relation to the State Treasury real estate, should be applied with great caution. Thirdly, de lege ferenda the legislator should specify
the governing regulation. The research material used in the presented argumentation includes substantive law, doctrine and practice, which, however, is still to be shaped in the future.

Authors: Rahman Md Mizanur , Arif Mohd Taha , Abdullah Abdul Rahim
Published: June 2022

Background: Smoke-free eating places are effective in reducing exposure to secondhand smoke (SHS). Eateries should comply with implementing smoke-free eating-places under the Control of Tobacco Products Regulations 2018 in all open-air eating-places to reduce tobacco consumption to achieve the plan of having Malaysia free of tobacco by 2045. Objectives: To determine the impact of perceived knowledge on tobacco control law and SHS and attitude to support and practice smoke-free eating-places. Methods: A total of 620 respondents participated in this cross-sectional study. The eating-places were selected randomly from 5 administrative divisions of Sarawak. Data on perceived tobacco control law, knowledge of the effects of SHS on health and environment, attitude and support towards smoke-free eating-places, and current smoke-free eating-places were collected by face-to-face interview using a structured questionnaire. A partial least squares model was developed to examine the impact of knowledge, attitude, and support towards the smoke-free eating-places with the current practice of smoke-free eating-places. WarpPLS version 7.0 was used to examine the structural path and to test the hypothesis. Results: The structural path analysis revealed that perceived knowledge of tobacco control law had no impact on practicing smoke-free eating-places (P > 0.05). However, the knowledge of the health and environmental effects of SHS had direct and indirect effects on attitude and support for smoke-free eating-places (P < 0.001). In addition, attitude towards smoke-free eating-places had a significant mediating effect on practicing smoke-free eating-places (P < 0.001). Besides that, supporting smoke-free eating-places had a significant direct impact on the practice of smoke-free eating-places (P < 0.001). Conclusions: Legislation and implementation of smoke-free eating-places along with the antismoking program and education efforts could support the cessation of tobacco use in all public places, including all eateries.

Authors: Azarakhsh Bajestani Asma , Shirazi Mahmoud , Sanagouye Moharer Gholamreza
Published: June 2022

Background: Today, the construct of well-being has influenced the field of education. In this regard, one of the important educational objectives in advanced societies is to provide psychological well-being for students. Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is considered as one of the most common mental disorders affecting all aspects of life with destructive effects in the long run on interpersonal and social relationships. Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of positivity on academic well-being in students with OCD. Methods: The population of this quasi-experimental study included all female students studying in secondary schools in Zahedan during the academic year 2020 - 2021. Using convenience sampling method, a total of 30 participants diagnosed with OCD were assigned into two equal groups of experimental and control (n = 15 in each). The experimental group received positivity training for eight sessions (each session 60 minutes). For data collection, Maudsley Obsessive-Compulsive Inventory (MOCI) and Academic Well-being Scale by Tuominen-Soini et al. were used. The data obtained from pre-test and post-test were analyzed by multivariate analysis of covariance (MANOVA). Results: The results of covariance showed that after training positivity, a significant difference was found between the mean scores of the control and experimental groups in the components of value of school, school burnout, academic satisfaction, involvement in school assignments, and academic well-being (P < 0.05). The difference in post-test scores related to the effect of positivity education according to ETA coefficients in the variables of school value, school burnout, academic satisfaction, school work integration, and academic well-being were 0.86, 0.52, 0.64, 0.77, and 0.81%, respectively. Conclusions: Considering the effectiveness of positivity training to promote the dimensions of academic well-being, practitioners are advised to use this kind of training to improve academic well-being of students with OCD.

Serum Sodium Alterations in Children with Primary Monosymptomatic Nocturnal Enuresis Using Desmopressin
Authors: Valavi Ehsan , Nickavar Azar , Amoori Parisa , Raiszadeh Sadrodin
Published: June 2022

Background: Hyponatremia/water intoxication has been considered a rare but serious complication of desmopressin (DDAVP) for the treatment of primary monosymptomatic nocturnal enuresis (PMNE). Objectives: This study aimed to identify the incidence and risk factors of serum sodium (Na) alterations in children with PMNE treated with oral or intranasal DDAVP. Methods: A total of 201 patients with PMNE were evaluated in 2 groups using intranasal (n = 127) or oral DDAVP (n = 74) for approximately 6 months. Treatment efficacy was defined as a more than 50% decrease in wet nights after 1 month of treatment. Serum Na was measured before, during, and after treatment in all patients. Predisposing factors of serum Na disturbance were evaluated concomitantly. Results: The mean age of patients was 8.8 ± 2.6 (5 - 17.5) years, and males outnumbered females (M/F = 1.68). Treatment efficacy was 100% in 93 (46.2%), and > 90% in 157 (78.1%) cases. Oral DDAVP had significantly more therapeutic effects than intranasal treatment (P = 0.024). However, serum Na had no significant difference between the 2 groups (P = 0.52). Hyponatremia occurred in 7 (3.5%) patients (3 in oral treatment and 4 in intranasal treatment; P = 0.73) with no significant correlation to age, gender, body weight, frequency of enuresis, and initial serum Na. However, decreased serum Na > 5 mEq/L was a significant risk factor for the prediction of hyponatremia in our patients (P < 0.001). Conclusions: Oral DDAVP had more therapeutic effects than intranasal treatment for the treatment of PMNE. Serum Na had no significant alteration in both oral and intranasal treatments, and hyponatremia was a rare complication of DDAVP, which occurred significantly in children with a > 5-mEq/L decrease of initial serum Na concentration. As a suggestion, monitoring serum Na is not an essential follow-up in asymptomatic patients in DDAVP treatment.
