Extending Latent Basis Growth Model to Explore Joint Development in the Framework of Individual Measurement Occasions
Authors: Liu Jin
Published: January 2025

Longitudinal processes often exhibit nonlinear change patterns. Latent basis growth models (LBGMs) provide a versatile solution without requiring specific functional forms. Building on the LBGM specification for unequally-spaced waves and individual measurement occasions proposed by Liu and Perera (2023), we extend LBGMs to multivariate longitudinal outcomes. The extended models enable the analysis of nonlinear parallel longitudinal processes with unequally-spaced study waves in the framework of individual measurement occasions. We present the proposed models by simulation studies and real-world data analyses. Simulation studies demonstrate that the proposed model can provide unbiased and accurate estimates with target coverage probabilities for the parameters of interest. Real-world analyses of reading and mathematics scores demonstrate its effectiveness in analyzing joint developmental processes that vary in temporal patterns. Computational code is included.

El propósito de este artículo es reflexionar sobre el proceso y la experiencia de llevar a cabo
estudios de caso mini-etnográficos en educación, aplicados en proyectos de investigación de
corta duración, para eventos únicos o sucesos aislados. La plasticidad de la etnografía la ha
llevado a presentar diversas formas, sobre todo en el área educativa, donde ha tenido que
ajustarse a las necesidades investigativas propias, convirtiéndose así en un asunto
interdisciplinario. Así fue necesario repensar la etnografía para dar paso a nuevas propuestas.
Particularmente interesó en este trabajo puntualizar en el método de estudio de caso
minietnográfico, debido a que permite enfocarse en pocos aspectos, rompiendo así la
intención totalizadora y en considerar las limitaciones de tiempo y de recursos que la mayoría
de los investigadores presentan; se profundiza en la integración de elementos de la etnografía,
la microetnografía, la etnografía escolar, el estudio de caso y el estudio de caso etnográfico,

Authors:   Universidad Autónoma del Estado de México, Otálora Barreto Zulma Inés , Sánchez Barreto Rafael Fernando
Published: January 2025

Suponiendo recursos infinitos se planteó un desarrollo consistente en un crecimiento
económico ilimitado, a expensas de la explotación de la naturaleza con el fin de construir una
sociedad de bienestar, pero nos hemos transformado en una sociedad de riesgo. El Foro
Económico Mundial (2024) contempla la crisis climática como el principal riesgo global a
largo plazo y la desinformación por la inteligencia artificial a mediano plazo. Sin embargo,
América Latina enfrenta desafíos socioeconómicos más urgentes como pobreza, desigualdad
e inseguridad pública, que desencadenan migraciones y la explotación descontrolada de la
naturaleza, situación que han motivado alianzas y lineamientos con apoyo transnacional, pero
¿estas estrategias logran llegar a las comunidades y suma a las formas de gestión local. El
objetivo de este trabajo es evidenciar, en el marco de las epistemologías del sur, la forma en
que la organización social comunitaria reduce su vulnerabilidad frente a estos escenarios de
riesgo, proponiendo formas propias de relación con la naturaleza, más allá de la explotación.
Se revisaron cualitativamente diferentes experiencias comunitarias en búsqueda de la
sustentabilidad en las que se evidencia que su organización es determinante de los logros
colectivos, materializados en la protección ambiental y la transformación de los modos de
producción.

Authors: Abu Bakar Marina , Ismail Sukriah , Mohamad Darwi Lizawati
Published: January 2025

ISO 21001:2018 is an international standard developed by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) specifically for educational organizations. It provides a management system framework designed to help educational institutions enhance their ability to deliver quality education and meet the needs and expectations of learners and other beneficiaries. While existing literature on ISO standards in education has primarily focused on information security and quality assurance frameworks, there is a gap regarding the benefits, challenges, and readiness factors associated with adopting ISO 21001:2018 in academia. Therefore, this study aims to analyse these aspects within higher education.This study employs a qualitative research design, comprising secondary data analysed using thematic analysis. The findings reveal that implementing ISO 21001:2018 brings significant benefits like improved efficiency, better educational quality, and higher stakeholder satisfaction. However, challenges such as resource constraints, resistance to change, and ongoing capacity building can hinder its success. Key factors for successful adoption include strong leadership, positive organizational culture, skilled staff, and sufficient resources. The findings imply that educational institutions should align their goals with ISO 21001:2018, address resource challenges, strengthen leadership, invest in staff development, and involve stakeholders in implementation. Continued research and case studies are needed to understand its long-term impact and refine its application.

THE MEDIATION EFFECT OF CUSTOMER SATISFACTION IN THE ISLAMIC FASHION RETAIL STORE ATTRIBUTES AND RETAIL PATRONAGE BEHAVIOUR AMONG MUSLIM CONSUMERS IN MALAYSIA
Authors: Zainal Nurdiyana Nazihah , Ahmad Sarah Sabir , Zakaria Azfahanee
Published: January 2025

The success of every physical retail store relies heavily on the behaviour of its customers. Various attempts have been made to explore how Islamic store attributes affect customer satisfaction and the behaviour of patrons in retail settings. Previous studies on retail patronage behaviour have primarily focused on the 4Ps (product, price, place, and promotion) or their subsets as store attributes. However, there is a lack of research on the role of customer satisfaction as a mediating factor in retail patronage behaviour. This study investigates the impact of Islamic store attributes on customer satisfaction and retail patronage behaviour within the context of Islamic fashion retail stores. Through a cross-sectional study, the potential relationship between the 7Ps of marketing mixes, known as Islamic store attributes (product, price, place, promotion, people, process, and physical environment), and customer satisfaction and retail patronage behaviour are examined. The findings of this research confirm that customer satisfaction plays a valid mediating role in the relationship between price, promotion, people, process, physical environment, and retail patronage behaviour. Therefore, it is evident that practitioners must create appealing and suitable Islamic store attributes to influence customer satisfaction and foster positive retail patronage behaviour. Additionally, diverse strategies are required to cater to the needs of different customer segments. Based on these investigations, recommendations have been made for future research in this area.

Published: January 2025

One of the most commonly reported occupational diseases is Work-related Musculoskeletal Disorder (WMSD), which have shown a rising trend of exposure in the construction sector. Studies on worker’s Knowledge, Attitude, and Practices (KAP) on WMSD in the construction sector are limited. Hence, it is necessary to discover the underlying KAP factors in order to provide interventions to prevent MSDs. This study assesses the level of Knowledge, Attitude and Practice (KAP) on Work-related musculoskeletal disorder (WMSD) with the prevalence of WMSD among workers in construction sector. 30 workers from construction sector in Selangor were selected in this pilot study. All of them were specialised in railway maintenance work. There are two sets of questionnaires that were used throughout this pilot study: KAP on WMSD Questionnaire and CORNELL Musculoskeletal Questionnaire. Results showed the prevalence of WMSD is high at lower back body region (86.2%). Spearman correlation was used in order to test the relationship between KAP scores and KAP variables and prevalence of WMSD. The Kruskal Wallis test was used to test the KAP score and demographic. From Spearman correlation a significant relationship has been established between knowledge and practices (r= -0.483, p < 0.05) on KAP level of workers. Moreover, the attitude component has a significant difference (T= 8.411, p<0.05) with education level. The three highest prevalence of WMSD based on body region were found in lower back (86.2%), upper back (72.4%), and neck (65.5%). WMSD cases are increasing hence understanding the underlaying KAP factors in WMSD is crucial in order to deal with the problem. The findings will enhance awareness and engagement not only among employees but of all parties including industry players and stakeholders regarding WMSD and ergonomic hazards, leading to effective interventions and a safer working environment.

Published: January 2025

Micro-entrepreneurs play a pivotal role in the socio-economic development of low-income households, significantly contributing to sustainable economic growth. Acknowledging their financial constraints, Islamic microfinance institutions, such as Amanah Ikhtiar Malaysia (AIM), are essential in providing the financial resources needed for their success. Research indicates that beyond financial support, other resources like the integration of ICT into business processes can accelerate growth. Therefore, this study aimed to examine the impact of ICT adoption on the performance of micro-entrepreneurs, considering the moderating effect of geographical location. The research involved 416 AIM clients from Selangor and Pahang, encompassing both urban and rural areas. Using partial least squares – structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM), the analysis revealed that ICT utilization significantly boosts the performance of micro-entrepreneurs, with geographical location influencing the outcomes differently in urban and rural contexts. These findings offer valuable insights for Islamic microfinance institutions to develop more targeted strategies, such as enhancing infrastructure, increasing ICT awareness, and adapting business models to the digital economy. Furthermore, the study can guide both the government and microfinance institutions in formulating effective support measures for micro-entrepreneurs, tailored to their performance across various locations especially in rural areas.
DEVELOPING INTERCULTURAL COMMUNICATIVE COMPETENCE IN CHINESE ENGLISH LANGUAGE LEARNERS
Authors: Gui Yi
Published: January 2025

The post-pandemic emphasis on global and intercultural education has introduced new challenges for English language teaching in China. Following the guidelines of China Education Modernization 2035, China Medium- and Long-term National Education Reform Modernization, and the College English Curriculum Requirements of China, the College Foreign Language Teaching Steering Committee of China has prioritized the integration of intercultural communicative competence (ICC) into the curriculum. This initiative aims to enhance learners’ understanding of diverse communities and improve their intercultural interaction skills, ultimately preparing them to be global citizens. Despite extensive theoretical discussions, empirical evidence on the practical integration of ICC into English Language Teaching courses is limited. This study aims to bridge this gap by examining the language learning experiences of Chinese students and the perceptions of English teachers regarding ICC development at a newly established international institute in China. This paper highlights the current state of ICC instruction in China, emphasizing the need to integrate ICC-focused modules into the English as a Foreign Language (EFL) curriculum. The goal is to improve the ICC skills of Chinese students. Due to the complex nature and increasing importance of ICC, incorporating and exploring ICC-centred English modules is both beneficial and crucial for developing ICC among Chinese English language learners. This underscores the importance of designing and implementing ICC-oriented components within the EFL courses of Chinese international institutions.

Authors: Albert Albert , Manginstar Christian O. , Saleh Denny , Merung Marselus A.
Published: January 2025

Abstract: Lenvatinib, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI), has shown potential as a neoadjuvant therapy for inoperable thyroid cancer (TC). In this case series, we present three patients with unresectable thyroid tumors who responded favorably to lenvatinib treatment. A 60-year-old male with papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) experienced a 60% tumor volume reduction after five months of therapy. A 61-year-old male with medullary thyroid cancer (MTC) saw a 99% reduction after four months of lenvatinib and decrease of serum calcitonin and no residual disease six months after surgery. Lastly, a 67-year-old female with anaplastic thyroid cancer (ATC) showed a 70% tumor reduction and significant symptomatic relief. These cases highlight lenvatinib’s efficacy in reducing tumor size and stabilizing disease, improving surgical outcomes in patients initially deemed inoperable due to locally advanced tumors. Lenvatinib’s antitumor effects, driven by its antiangiogenic properties, suggest its potential as a valuable neoadjuvant treatment option in advanced thyroid cancer.

Published: January 2025

Abstract: Literature has not yet defined the best position for percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) based on the complexity of the stone burden. This case of left-sided complex kidney stones underwent endoscopic-guided PCNL in an PSL (prone split-leg position). A 61-year-old woman with a chief complaint of right pelvic pain. Standard prone PCNL was planned for this patient, however, due to so much debris in the pelviocalyceal system during URS evaluation and ureter catheter insertion, we decided to puncture with ultrasound guidance rather than fluoroscopy. Intraoperatively there was residual superior calyx stone that was beyond the reach of nephroscope. We decided not to do a double puncture because of poor vision due to the floating debris. In the second procedure, the ePSL method was utilized. A C-arm and nephroscope examination revealed no active bleeding, no infundibulum laceration, and no remaining stones. The primary goals of this method were to remove stones from the urinary tract throughout the entire tract using a one-step, one-access procedure that made the most of the full range of endourologic equipment. There were a number of reasons why the prone split-leg position was chosen, including operator preference, familiarity with the position, and the inability to make a direct puncture in the upper pole. The main drawback was that patient would not be able to see how well and safely this method worked over time. In conclusion, complex kidney stones can be treated with ePSL performed in the prone split-leg position, which is a safe procedure with a low risk of complications.

Published: January 2025

Currently, social media is used as a platform for interacting with many people and has also become a source of information for social media researchers or analysts. Twitter is one of the platforms commonly used for research purposes, especially for data from tweets written by individuals. However, on Twitter, user information such as gender is not explicitly displayed in the account profile, yet there is a plethora of unstructured information containing such data, often unnoticed. This research aims to classify gender based on tweet data and account description data and determine the accuracy of gender classification using machine learning methods. The method used involves FastText as a feature extraction method and LSTM as a classification method based on the extracted data, while to achieve the most accurate results, classification is performed on tweet data, account description data, and a combination of both. This research shows that LSTM classification on account description data and combined data obtained an accuracy of 70%, while tweet data classification achieved 69%. This research concludes that FastText feature extraction with LSTM classification can be implemented for gender classification. However, there is no significant difference in accuracy results for each dataset. However, this research demonstrates that both methods can work well together and yield optimal results.

Published: January 2025

Heart disease, which is classified as a non-communicable disease, is the main cause of death every year. The involvement of experts is considered very necessary in the process of diagnosing heart disease, considering its complex nature and potential severity. Machine Learning Algorithms have emerged as powerful tools capable of effectively predicting and detecting heart diseases, thereby reducing the challenges associated with their diagnosis. Notable examples of such algorithms include Extreme Learning Machine Algorithms and Adaptive Boosting, both of which represent Machine Learning techniques adapted for classification purposes. This research tries to introduce a new approach that relies on the use of one parameter. Through careful optimization of algorithm parameters, there is a marked improvement in the accuracy of machine learning predictions, a phenomenon that underscores the importance of parameter tuning in this domain. In this research, the Heart Failure dataset serves as the focal point, with the aim of demonstrating the optimal level of accuracy that can be achieved through the use of Machine Learning algorithms. The results of this study show an average accuracy of 0.83 for the Extreme Learning Machine Algorithm and 0.87 for Adaptive Boosting, the standard deviation for both methods is “0.83±0.02” for Extreme Machine Learning Algorithm and “0.87±0.03” for Adaptive Boosting thus highlighting the efficacy of these algorithms in the context of heart disease prediction. In particular, entering the Learning Rate parameter into Adaboost provides better results when compared with the previous algorithm. Our research findings underline the supremacy of Extreme Learning Machine Algorithms and Adaptive Improvement, especially when combined with the introduction of a single parameter, it can be seen that the addition of parameters results in increased accuracy performance when compared to previous research using standard methods alone.

Published: January 2025

Stroke is a disease that occurs in the brain and can cause both vocal and global brain dysfunction. Stroke research mainly aims to predict risk and mortality. Machine learning can be used to diagnose and predict diseases in the healthcare field, especially in stroke prediction. However, collecting medical record data to predict a disease usually makes much noise because not all variables are important and relevant to the prediction process. In this case, dimensionality reduction is essential to remove noisy (i.e., irrelevant) and redundant features. This study aims to predict stroke using Recursive Feature Elimination as feature selection, Principal Component Analysis as feature extraction, and a combination of Recursive Feature Elimination and Principal Component Analysis. The dataset used in this research is stroke prediction from Kaggle. The research methodology consists of pre-processing, SMOTE, 10-fold Cross-Validation, feature selection, feature extraction, and machine learning, which includes SVM, Random Forest, Naive Bayes, and Linear Discriminant Analysis. From the results obtained, the SVM and Random Forest get the highest accuracy value of 0.8775 and 0.9511 without using PCA and RFE, Naive Bayes gets the highest value of 0.7685 when going through PCA with selection of 20 features followed by RFE feature selection with selection of 5 features, and LDA gets the highest accuracy with 20 features from feature selection and continued feature extraction with a value of 0. 7963. It can be concluded in this study that SVM and Random Forest get the highest accuracy value without PCA and RFE techniques, while Naive Bayes and LDA show better performance using a combination of PCA and RFE techniques. The implication of this research is to know the effect of RFE and PCA on machine learning to improve stroke prediction.

Published: January 2025

Software Defect Prediction (SDP) is essential for improving software quality during testing. As software systems grow more complex, accurately predicting defects becomes increasingly challenging. One of the challenges faced is dealing with imbalanced class distributions, where the number of defective instances is significantly lower than non-defective ones. To tackle the imbalanced class issue, use the SMOTE technique. Random Forest as a classification algorithm is due to its ability to handle non-linear data, its resistance to overfitting, and its ability to provide information about the importance of features in classification. This research aims to evaluate important features and measure accuracy in SDP using the SMOTE+RFE+Random Forest technique. The dataset used in this study is NASA MDP D", which included 12 data sets. The method used combines SMOTE, RFE, and random forest techniques. This study is conducted in two stages of approach. The first stage uses the RFE+Random Forest technique; the second stage involves adding the SMOTE technique before RFE and Random Forest to measure the accurate data from NASA MDP. The result of this study is that the use of the SMOTE technique enhances accuracy across most datasets, with the best performance achieved on the MC1 dataset with an accuracy of 0.9998. Feature importance analysis identifies "maintenance severity" and "cyclomatic density" as the most crucial features in data modeling for SDP. Therefore, the SMOTE+RFE+RF technique effectively improves prediction accuracy across various datasets and successfully addresses class imbalance issues.

Authors: Rogério Alves Ribeiro
Published: January 2025

A criação do trabalho intermitente no direito brasileiro, a partir da aprovação da Lei n.º 13.467/2017, no afã de retirar os trabalhadores da informalidade, do desemprego e reduzir a desigualdade social fez surgir no nosso ordenamento jurídico norma inconstitucional, diante da afronta a direitos constitucionais consagrados, a exemplo do salário mínimo e das férias anuais remuneradas. A pesquisa bibliográfica em doutrinas e dissertação de mestrado, além de base jurisprudencial, subsidiam esta conclusão, não sem antes esmiuçar este tipo contratual passando desde a sua conceituação até a demonstração de seus pontos críticos. Em vista deste lamentável fato, propõe-se uma inovação legislativa baseada no contrato de trabalho compartilhado, propenso a geração de oportunidades de emprego, combate a informalidade, ao desemprego, a redução da desigualdade social, fortalecimento da economia com o ganho de poder de compra dos trabalhadores, além de favorecer o acréscimo de produtividade e a eficiência no desempenho do ofício. E o mais importante, não retrocede em conquistas sociais da classe trabalhadora em geral.

Speaking ability is a key element of language skills in elementary school education that contributes to students' academic and social development. However, this skill often receives less attention in the learning process. This study aims to examine the effect of the retelling method on improving the speaking skills of Phase C elementary school students. The research employed a quantitative approach with a pre-experimental one-group pretest-posttest design. The sample consisted of 10 randomly selected fifth-grade students. The research instrument was a speaking skills rubric measuring five main aspects: fluency, diction, sentence structure, comprehension, and communicative aspects. Data were analyzed using a paired t-test to evaluate significant differences between the pretest and posttest results. The findings showed that the retelling method had a significant impact on improving students' speaking skills. The average pretest score of 57.50 increased to 76.50 in the posttest, with a significant difference (p < 0.001). This method not only enhanced students' speaking abilities but also reduced their anxiety in public speaking. The study concluded that the retelling method effectively improved the speaking skills of Phase C elementary school students and is therefore recommended for integration into learning. Additionally, this research opens opportunities to develop the implementation of the retelling method by utilizing digital technology for more optimal results.

This study aims to examine the effectiveness of the Modelling the Way strategy in improving the activity and ability of third-grade students at SDN 80/I Muara Bulian in performing obligatory prayers. This strategy focuses on teachers serving as role models in demonstrating discipline and the proper way of performing prayers, enabling students to observe and imitate the behaviors presented. The study employed a quantitative approach with a simple experimental design, involving a sample of 30 students divided into two groups: an experimental group that received the intervention through the application of this strategy and a control group that did not. Statistical analysis, including t-tests and ANOVA, revealed a significant increase in the experimental group compared to the control group. The regression coefficient for the Experimental variable was 0.163, with a t-value of 4.001 and a significance of 0.001, indicating a significant positive effect, while the coefficient for the Control variable was 0.411, with a t-value of 5.065 and a significance of 0.000, showing an even stronger influence. Additionally, the Kolmogorov-Smirnov normality test results indicated that the residuals from the regression model followed a normal distribution (p = 0.565), confirming that the normality assumption was met. No multicollinearity issues were found in the model, as Tolerance and VIF values were within acceptable limits. These findings demonstrate that the Modelling the Way strategy is an effective method for establishing the habit of prayer among students, with teachers serving as key role models in the learning process. Furthermore, the study highlights the importance of the family environment in reinforcing the habits developed at school. Students who received parental support showed faster improvements in their prayer activities. Overall, the study indicates that role modeling in prayer practices by teachers, supported by a conducive family environment, can significantly impact the development of religious character in students, particularly in cultivating the habit of performing obligatory prayers.

Non-adherence to rehabilitation protocols is a pervasive issue in healthcare,leading to suboptimal recovery outcomes,
increased healthcare costs, and long-term functional impairments. This paper explores the impact of psycho-social
factors on physical rehabilitation adherence, focusing on both psychological and social determinants. Psychological
barriers, such as depression, anxiety, low motivation, and fear of pain, significantly impede patient engagement, while
social factors, including family support, socio-economic status, and cultural beliefs, further influence adherence. The
paper also highlights the distinction between chronic and acute conditions, with psycho-social factors affecting
rehabilitation differently in each context.Additionally,socio-economic considerations,such as financial constraints and
health literacy,are examined.To address these barriers,a biopsychosocial approach is recommended,emphasizing the
role of physiotherapists in psycho-social assessment and collaboration with mental health professionals. Tailored
rehabilitation programs and behavioural interventions, such as cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT), are suggested to
enhance adherence and improve patient outcomes.
