PT Pertamina Lubricants is a subsidiary of the Indonesian state-owned oil and gas company Pertamina. The company has three production facilities located in Jakarta, Cilacap, and Gresik. PT Pertamina Lubricants Production Unit Cilacap is committed to implementing environmental and social responsibility well through Corporate Social Innovation. The programs are closely related to implementing sustainable development, which focuses on environmental issues and includes two other aspects: economic and community empowerment (People, Profit, and Planet). One of the programs specifically targets fishermen groups, called Pertamina Sahabat Nelayan (Pertamina Friends of Fishermen), an empowerment program by PTPL in Cilacap, using the Return On Investment (SROI) method. SROI is a method used by companies to measure the return on business investment for a program or social activity organized using a financial quantification (monetization) calculation approach. Data collection was obtained through in-depth interviews with members of fishermen groups in Tambakreja Village, the local government, beneficiary communities, and other stakeholders. The SROI calculations show that the Pertamina Friends of Fishermen program has created excellent value. With Pertamina’s investment, Pertamina Lubricants Production Unit Cilacap’s program has positively impacted society. This is indicated by the SROI ratio in the program’s first year, which resulted in an SROI ratio of 1:3.59.

Published: June 2024

This research focuses on analyzing the graphological, phonological, morphological, and semantic features of English poems from Kaur's books "Home Body" and "The Sun and Her Flowers," which were posted on Instagram between May and July 2023. Using Simpson’s stylistic theories (2014), the analysis selected three poems from each of Kaur's books. The findings indicate that the poet employs stylistic elements as follows: graphologically, the use of all lowercase letters throughout her poems reflects intimacy and vulnerability, with minimal punctuation, only using a period at the end of each stanza. Phonologically, the poems lack a consistent rhyme scheme, relying instead on the natural flow of language and the emotions conveyed through words. Morphologically, the poet uses simple and concise grammatical structures to effectively communicate emotions and thoughts through straightforward sentences, drawing readers into her perspective and experiences. Semantically, the poet employs various figurative language elements, including metaphors, imagery, personification, symbolism, rhetorical questions, and repetition. The implication of this research is that Kaur's stylistic choices, such as lowercase letters, minimal punctuation, natural language flow, simple grammar, and diverse figurative language, enhance the intimacy, emotional impact, and accessibility of her poetry.

Capitalismo, intelectuales y medios de comunicación: un análisis socio antropológico
Authors:   Corporación Universitaria Minuto de Dios, Zarta Rojas Fabián Andrey
Published: June 2024

El presente capitulo tiene tuvo como objetivo desarrollar un análisis de la relación de tres conceptos que parecen estar distantes o pasan inadvertidos en mucha de la producción científica sobre el tema: capitalismo, intelectuales y medios de comunicación, los cuales serán revisados desde la socioantropología. Se optó por una postura epistemológica compleja siguiendo las consideraciones metodológicas de Morín (1995) retomadas por Zarta (2022); lo que permitirá, seguir una línea interdisciplinar de análisis; el texto se desarrolla bajo tres acápites: 1) Capitalismo y medios de comunicación; 2) Narcoestado, realidad social y medios informativos; 3) Intelectuales, neoliberalismo y resistencia: ruta para los medios de comunicación. Las conclusiones arriban en que, ante esta situación, son los intelectuales los llamados a generar procesos de conciencia colectiva para orientar a la ciudadanía hacia rutas donde se puedan consolidar procesos de resistencia ante toda la paranoia que puede causar el neoliberalismo.

Выявлено, что структура международной торговли текстилем и одеждой является сложной и динамичной и зависит от большого числа факторов. Установлено, что теория сравнительных преимуществ с высокой степенью точности описывает процессы в международной торговле текстилем и одеждой. Выявлено, что специализация в индустрии моды в основном определяется конфигурацией глобальных цепочек добавленной стоимости, где разные страны специализируются на определенных этапах производственного процесса.. Установлено, что развивающиеся страны Азии, используя свои сравнительные преимущества, после либерализации стали ключевыми экспортерами текстиля и одежды на мировой рынок.

The relevance of the article is due to the great importance of international trade in textiles and clothing and its significant changes over recent decades. It has been revealed that the structure of international trade in textiles and clothing is complex and dynamic and depends on a large number of factors. It has been established that the theory of comparative advantage describes processes in international trade in textiles and clothing with a high degree of accuracy. It is revealed that specialization in the fashion industry is mainly determined by the configuration of global value chains (GVCs), where different countries specialize in certain stages of the production process. It is established that developing countries in Asia, using their comparative advantages, have become key exporters of textiles and clothing after liberalization to the world market.
Examining the Relationship between Air Quality and Respiratory Health in Urban Environments in Brazil
Authors: Santos Isabela
Published: June 2024

Purpose: The aim of the study was to examine the relationship between air quality and respiratory health in urban environments
Methodology: This study adopted a desk methodology. A desk study research design is commonly known as secondary data collection. This is basically collecting data from existing resources preferably because of its low cost advantage as compared to a field research. Our current study looked into already published studies and reports as the data was easily accessed through online journals and libraries.
Findings: The study on air quality and respiratory health in urban Brazil found that higher pollution levels were associated with increased respiratory diseases like asthma and COPD. Lower-income communities faced greater health risks due to poor air quality. The findings stress the importance of regulations and interventions to improve air quality and protect respiratory health in urban areas of Brazil.
Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: Environmental justice theory, the exposure-response theory & the social determinants of health theory may be used to anchor future studies on air quality and respiratory health in urban environments. Researchers should employ a combination of observational studies, longitudinal cohorts, and intervention trials to assess the impact of air quality on respiratory health outcomes in urban populations. Governments and policymakers should prioritize investments in clean energy technologies, sustainable transportation systems, and green infrastructure to minimize sources of air pollution and promote respiratory health in urban environments.

Published: June 2024

The goal of this study is to amplify knowledge of Mendelian genetics, a difficult topic in Biology classes. The study used a multi-phase methodology, beginning with a needs assessment to identify teaching and learning challenges using structured surveys with teachers and students. The second phase integrated teacher and student feedback into developing a Digital Interactive Mendelian Comic Stories (DIMen Ge ComS) Intervention, utilizing a sequential explanatory mixed-methods research design following the ADDIE model. In the last stage, the intervention is implemented in a Grade 8 classroom, and the conceptual gain of the students is evaluated. Thematic analysis for qualitative insights, mean computation for rating scales, and normalized gain for quantitative assessment are examples of data analysis techniques used in the study. Moreover, ethically informed permission and participant anonymity were given top priority. The main objective is to develop and provide cutting-edge teaching tool that improves students’ comprehension of and interest in Mendelian genetics. The developed DIMenGeComS received an “Excellent” rating from the 7 Biology and Technology experts indicating that all areas of education and work are sufficiently covered by the DIMenGeComS, and the overall caliber of the material is excellent. Ergo, the current study suggested implementing the material and employing conceptual gains from a pre-and post-test before and after the utilization of the DIMenGeComS to assess students’ understanding of Mendelian genetics.

Authors: Mwangi Peter Maina , Minja Prof. David , Msabah Dr Barnabé Anzuruni
Published: June 2024

The Anglican Church of Kenya (ACK) has encountered various growth challenges, including the sustainability of its programs and the need for technological and spiritual advancement. This study aimed to assess the impact of church strategic leadership and organizational culture on ACK’s growth. The specific objectives were to: (1) determine the relationship between strategic leadership and church growth and (2) explore whether organizational culture moderates the relationship between strategic leadership and growth. Informed by Strategic Leadership and Upper Echelons theories, the study utilized correlation research design. The target population comprised 315 church leaders, including members of the Provincial Administration, Archdeaconry/Parochial Leadership, and the Nairobi Diocesan Secretariat. Proportionate stratified sampling was employed to select 176 respondents. Data collection involved a structured questionnaire on a 5-point scale. Linear regression analysis was used to test research hypotheses, with SPSS version 23 aiding quantitative data analysis. Strategic leadership together with organizational culture accounted for 52.8% of the variance in church growth (R2=.528, DF (3) = 64.257, p<.01). However, the interaction term between strategic leadership and organizational culture did not show evidence of moderation (β=-.038, p>.05). Examination of the regression coefficients revealed that organizational culture had statistically significant predictive power on church growth (β=.757, p<.05) but the effect size of strategic leadership on church growth was insignificant (β=.398, p>.05). It was concluded that organizational culture is ultimately what counts for church growth within the Anglican Church of Kenya, though strategic leadership plays a positive role. Therefore, fostering a strong organizational culture within the Anglican Church of Kenya can significantly contribute to its growth and sustainability, and this can be reinforced by strategic leadership.
Developing expertise and managing inaccessibility: a study of reading by listening practices among students with blindness or vision impairment
Authors: Lundh Anna
Published: June 2024

Introduction. This study aims to contribute to a better understanding of the learning that reading by listening requires from readers with print disabilities.
Method. Sixteen semi-structured interviews were conducted with university students with blindness or vision impairment in Australia.
Analysis. A theoretical reading of the interview material was conducted, with a basis in sociocultural learning theory.
Results. The responsibility for learning to use audio-based reading tools was often left to the participants themselves. The process of appropriating audio-based reading tools included two important aspects: digital literacy and learning to manage the sequentiality of audio text. This process was related to trajectories of participation in academic communities of practice, English-speaking communities of practice, and blindness and visual impairments communities of practice. It also included learning to participate in practices where vision and reading by seeing is the norm.
Conclusion. Three conclusions are drawn: 1) reading by listening is not a passive and effortless activity, it requires specific expertise, 2) socio-economic and socio-political circumstances influence how reading by listening is practiced and the learning that this form of reading requires, and 3) reading by listening requires learning how to navigate and manage the effects of institutions and systems that are disabling.
Reasons to fight: preliminary results on motivations to combat fake news
Authors: Yu Wenting
Published: June 2024

Introduction. To encourage the public to combat online fake news and revalue truth, it is important to explore the factors that affect individual intention to combat fake news.
Method. This study provides answers using survey data from a representative sample collected in the U.S. (N = 804).
Analysis. We examined the impacts of planned-behaviour-theory components and prior experience of being deceived by fake news on the intentions of news verification, fake news refutation, and fact-checks sharing, with demographical characteristics, media use, and media credibility under control. The study also examined prior experience as a moderator in the models.
Results. Results showed that subjective norms and prior experience of being deceived by fake news were positively correlated with intentions of all three behaviours that help to combat fake news. Prior experience moderated the effect of subjective norms on fake news refutation, and the effect of perceived control on fact-checks sharing.
Conclusion. The findings of this study help scholars and industry practitioners to understand audiences’ interaction with online information and what drives audiences to combat information fakeness. Prior experience of being deceived by fake news is a significant driver.
‘Alexa, play metal’: exploring music selection and personal information management via voice assistants
Authors: Steffens Jochen , Dinneen Jesse David , Donner Sascha , Potthoff Tom
Published: June 2024

Introduction. Music streaming services have changed how music is played and perceived, but also how it is managed by individuals. Voice interfaces to such services are becoming increasingly com-mon, for example through voice assistants on mobile and smart devices, and have the poten-tial to further change personal music management by introducing new beneficial features and new challenges.
Method. To explore the implications of voice assistants for personal music listening and management we surveyed 248 participants online and in a lab setting to investigate (a) in which situa-tions people use voice assistants to play music, (b) how the situations compare to established activities common during non-voice assistant music listening, and (c) what kinds of com-mands they use.
Analysis. We categorised 653 situations of voice assistant use, which reflect differences to non-voice assistant music listening, and established 11 command types, which mostly reflect finding or refinding activities but also indicate keeping and organisation activities.
Results. Voice assistants have some benefits for music listening and personal music management, but also a notable lack of support for traditional personal information management activities, like browsing, that are common when managing music.
Conclusion. Having characterised the use of voice assistants to play music, we consider their role in per-sonal music management and make suggestions for improved design and future research.

Enhancing conceptualisations of information behaviour contexts through insights from research on e-dictionaries and e-lexicography
Authors: Bothma Theo JD , Fourie Ina
Published: June 2024

Introduction. Extensive conceptualisations of context in information behaviour research do not extend to all contexts revealed in the use of electronic (e)-dictionary and similar e-sources. Information behaviour emphasises users’ contexts and their situations. As intermediaries, examples of using e-dictionaries reveal additional contexts. E-dictionary research and lexicographical insight add additional conceptualisations of information behaviour contexts.
Method. Conceptual paper drawing on literature reviews of research on e-dictionaries and conceptualisations of information behaviour contexts, and an exemplar approach to e-dictionary use.
Analysis. The literature and dictionary use examples are analysed through an information behaviour lens with added lexicographic insight.
Results. Conceptualisations of context in information behaviour research strongly focus on the user (e.g. the need, problem) and specific situations in such contexts, sometimes extending to temporality and spatiality. Information retrieval literature also notes the context of the person who created information and of an intermediary (person or system). Three contexts are evident from e-dictionary use and lexicography: user, information intermediary (dictionary), and word, phrase or text (information source). These contexts might influence information behaviour.
Conclusion. The use of e-dictionaries and similar intermediaries, observed with lexicographic insight, can enhance conceptualisations of context in information behaviour, which is of value in the use of information sources and information evaluation.
Case study on a scientific oral history project using information practice analysis
Authors: Garwood Deborah A.
Published: June 2024

Introduction. This investigation explored 21st century stewardship of a late 20th century scientific oral history project through the lens of information practice. Oral history project stewardship and reuse are understudied.
Literature review. Oral histories foreground human agency in the world. Often studied singly, many reflect an oral history project’s historiographic context. Stewardship documentation by multiple stakeholders accrues over time. The author developed an information practice analysis tool for systematic exploration of oral history stewardship documentation.
Method. A case study approach and qualitative content analysis techniques guided investigation of documentation for an oral history project held at Science History Institute in Philadelphia. Textual data was collected for a purposive sample.
Analysis and results. Multiple stakeholders’ documentation schema for the purposive sample were analysed in Excel and Word. Results coded five information work models for stakeholder information practices.
Discussion. The information work models portrayed stakeholder information practices as mechanisms for stability in the stewardship of contextual assets, and mechanisms for transformation through staff knowledge, as situational assets.
Conclusion. Information practice analysis of oral history stewardship in this case study systematised stakeholders’ and user perspectives on access. Implications for theory development lie in leveraging the stability and transformative agency of stewardship and reuse.
‘It never seems to stop’ Six high school students’ experiences of information overload
Authors: Aadland Mira Grønning , Heinström Jannica
Published: June 2024

Introduction. The paper explores high school students' experiences of information overload in the context of their studies, investigating its causes and how they manage it.
Method. Data was collected through qualitative interviews with six students aged 13-16.
Analysis. A thematic content analysis was applied to discern patterns and themes in the students' experiences.
Results. All informants had experienced information overload, but how and to which degree it manifested differed between them. The most common trigger was encountering complex information, followed by passive exposure to large amounts of information over time. Students primarily responded to information overload by losing attention, while some also reported negative emotions such as irritation and sadness.
Conclusion. The findings reveal that high school students frequently experience information overload in the context of their schoolwork. Personal vulnerabilities seemed to influence the extent in which they experienced information overload.
To share or not to share? Image data sharing in the social sciences and humanities
Authors: Late Elina , Skov Mette , Kumpulainen Sanna
Published: June 2024

Introduction. The paper aims to investigate image data sharing within social science and humanities. While data sharing is encouraged as a part of the open science movement, little is known about the approaches and factors influencing the sharing of image data. This information is evident as the use of image data in these fields of research is increasing, and data sharing is context dependent.
Method. The study analyses qualitative semi-structured interviews with 14 scholars who incorporate digital images as a core component of their research data.
Analysis. Content analysis is conducted to gather information about scholars’ image data sharing and motivating and impeding factors related to it.
Results. The findings show that image data sharing is not an established research practice, and when it happens it is mostly done via informal means by sharing data through personal contacts. Supporting the scientific community, the open science agenda and fulfilling research funders’ requirements motivate scholars to share their data. Impeding factors relate to the qualities of data, ownership of data, data stewardship, and research integrity.
Conclusion. Advancing image data sharing requires the development of research infrastructures and providing support and guidelines. Better understanding of the scholars’ image data practices is also needed.
Development in the adoption of a national digital healthcare system and experience at taking new technology in use – changes from 2019 to 2022
Authors: Pálsdóttir Ágústa
Published: June 2024

Introduction. The adoption of a national digital system for healthcare services in Iceland, and how people perceive their possibilities to adopt new technology is examined.
Method. Surveys using random samples of people aged 18 years and older were conducted. The samples consisted of 1.800 people in 2019 and 1.200 in 2022. People 18-59 years old were reached by emails and 60 or older by phone. Response rates were 39% in 2019 and 45% in 2022.
Analysis. The analysis is descriptive. Survey results from 2019 and 2022 are compared and differences by sex and age examined.
Results. Considerable change was detected in use of the system for communication with health professionals tailored to participants health, while no increase was in obtaining information regarding issues not directly connected to people’s health history. The possibilities of adopting health technology were considered substantially better in 2022 than in 2019.
Conclusion. People are likely to use digital healthcare systems when the situation requires, and they receive necessary support. It is important to consider the needs of those who are getting older for people to have equal opportunity to benefit from digital health information. Furthermore, reliable information offered by health professionals need to be promoted.
Information from sound: exploring sounds and listening in information practices research
Authors: Stewart-Robertson Owen
Published: June 2024

Introduction. This conceptual paper discusses the possibilities for expanding research around sounds/listening and sound-related practices in information research to further understandings of embodied/sensory information practices and attend to a greater diversity of information experiences and ways of knowing.
Method/Analysis. The growth of research related to broad conceptualisations of sound and listening and the use of information from sound in knowledge production across many fields is discussed. Some challenges faced by that research and gaps in existing sound-related information practices research are noted.
Results. Sound research in other fields faces issues around the management, interpretation, and contextualisation of sound-related data, and little is understood about the practices of sound recordists. Some information practices-related research has highlighted the complexity of interactions with sounds and related technologies and explored interactions with oral and music information sources. However, experiences and perceptions around seeking, creating, and using information from sounds lack in-depth study.
Conclusion. The value of further information practices research related to sound is suggested: to expand embodied/sensory information research, to engage with the broad range of sonic skills and experiences, to further holistic examinations of information interactions, and to address information-related problems and research gaps in sound-focused research from other fields.
Searching for people in the workplace: aims, behaviour, and challenges
Authors: Svarre Tanja , Lykke Marianne , Bygholm Ann
Published: June 2024

Introduction. People have been shown to play an important role in solving search tasks in professional settings. Searching for a person covers a large part of the information retrieval carried out in the workplace. However, it can be challenging to identify relevant people through a query. Thus, to support workplace users, knowledge of the characteristics of people searches is needed to identify which steps can be taken to ease the retrieval process.
Method. This study examined the characteristics of people searching in a biotechnology company based on a mixed-methods process consisting of search log data from an in-house enterprise system, a questionnaire survey, and semi-structured interviews with users of the enterprise system. 
Results. The findings showed that people search accounted for 59.5% of all queries in the search log. Log data and questionnaire data were analysed to determine how the queries were distributed across organisational areas and information sources. The interview data provided insight into how people search was used for locating people and expertise and as part of exploratory, complex subject searches. Challenges in searching for people were also discussed in the interviews. The findings were used to discuss the implications for future workplace information systems.
Digital stress among Chinese adolescents: a focus group study
Authors: Wen Zhang , Yifan Chen , Gaohui Cao
Published: June 2024

Introduction. Current digital stress studies among teenagers overlooked a population with distinct societal and cultural characteristics: Chinese teenagers. This paper reports differences in Chinese adolescents’ attitudes towards components of digital stress and presents two novel stressors.
Method. This study investigated 74 participants in three senior high schools (grade 10 - grade 12) in China via focus group interviews. Transcripts of the interviews were used for analysis.
Analysis. Qualitative analysis was used for this study. The software MAXQDA for Qualitative Data Analysis (Version 22.7.0, 2022) was used for the analysis steps.
Result. The analysis reveals differences in Chinese adolescents’ attitudes towards components of digital stress in terms of online vigilance and communication overload. In addition, two novel stressors - the obligated use of learning features in social media and perceived social issues from media or news applications – were identified.
Conclusion. Digital stress among Chinese adolescents was significantly different compared to the extant digital stress framework. Such differences were both manifested in better tolerance of certain stressors (e.g. online vigilance or information overload) and in the emergence of novel stressors, such as obligation resentment and social concerns.
