Abstract We investigated the influence of daily cycle cycleand local environmental factors on fish assemblages in a terra firme stream in southwestern Amazonia during the rainy season. We collected fish by using sieves and hand-nets over three days and local environmental variables were measured throughout the collection period as well. We employed Generalized Linear Models to examine the impact of daily cycle and local environmental variables on fish species richness and abundance. We used PERMANOVA to assess changes in fish assemblage composition and Redundancy Analysis to understand variations in fish species composition in response to daily cycle and local environmental factors. We collected 18 species and 271 individuals, 111 at night and 160 during the day. Dissolved oxygen (DO) had a positive influence on species richness and abundance and species composition differed between daily cycles. Redundancy Analysis revealed associations between fish species composition, environmental variables (temperature, pH and DO), and daily cycle. These findings underscore the significance of the local environment and daily cycle in predicting variations in fish assemblage structure in Amazonian streams. Understanding how stream fish assemblages are organized temporally is important for devising effective conservation strategies in a region facing increasing human pressures on aquatic ecosystems.

Authors: D'Angelo-Campello Magali , Puga F. R. , Rodrigues Maria Amélia La R.
Published: February 2025

RESUMO O 14 C-DDT e 0 14 C-aldrin são incorporados pelas células IB-RS-2, efeito que é diretamente proporcional ao tempo e que, após 7 horas de tratamento, atinge os valores de 25,5 e 22,1%, respectivamente. Não foram detectados metabólitos do DDT nem do aldrin no meio sobrenadante de culturas expostas aos produtos neste mesmo período; o único metabólito identificado no interior das células foi o p,p' DDE. A avaliação comparativa entre a citotoxicidade do p,p' DDE e a do p,p' DDT mostra que, após 72 horas de tratamento, o p,p' DDT inibe o crescimento celular em 34,4%, porém, induz um aumento de 1,9% na síntese de proteínas e de 0,7% no consumo de glicose; para o p,p' DDE, estes valores são de 25,0, 5,2 e O, 7%, respectivamente.

RESUMO O trabalho foi realizado no Município de Miracatu-SP, usando os cultivares de bananeira conhecidos como Nanicáo e Nanica, com o objetivo de comparar dois tipos de iscas, quanto à atratividade de adultos de Cosmopolites sordidus, e a durabilidade das iscas em condições de campo. Um dos tipos, conhecido como "telha'* , é formado a partir de pseudocaules com aproximadamente 40cm, seccionados ao meio no sentido longitudinal e colocados com a parte seccionada voltada para o solo. O outro, cham "sanduiche", consiste na justaposição de duas iscas tipo "telha" . As iscas foram trocadas a cada 20 - 30 dias, ocasião em que se fazia a contagem do número de adultos e larvas, acrescido da avaliação do seu estado de conservação. Os dois tipos de isca apresentaram a mesma atratividade para adultos e idênticos estado físico, 3 a 4 semanas após a instalação, o que mostra a vantagem do uso da isca tipo "telha" , devido a economia em sua confecção.

RESUMO O desenvolvimento de uma postura, com 260 ovos, da borboleta do girassol (Chlosyne lacinia saundersii Doubl. & Hew.) foi investigado por um período de 13 dias, com base no comportamento de consumo foliar e deslocamento das lagartas na planta hospedeira. A planta atacada foi completamente desfolhada durante o período verificando-se que o consumo aumentou exponencialmente com a idade das lagartas, elevando-se consideravelmente após o sexto dia de idade. Dez dias após a eclosão, algumas lagartas abandonaram a planta passando a predar 23 plantas de girassol, folhas de picão preto (Bidens pilosa L.), picão branco (Galinsoga parviflora Cav.) e quiabo (Albelmoschus esculentus L.). O tamanho máximo alcançado pelas lagartas, antes de entrar na fase de pupa, foi de 2,77 cm.

Published: February 2025

Abstract Studies on slab-column connections supported on re-entrant corners are limited. Although design standards generally provide detailed guidelines for internal, edge, and corner connections, re-entrant corner connections are overlooked in these standards. To investigate the structural behaviour of re-entrant corner connections, a model without shear reinforcement was tested and compared with an interior slab-column connection with similar characteristics. The results were analysed in terms of crack pattern, ultimate loads, rotations, strains at the concrete surface and strains in the flexural reinforcement. The ultimate loads were compared with values estimated from ABNT NBR 6118 (2023), ACI 318 (2019), and EN 1992-1-1:2004 (Eurocode 2). In addition, remarks on the calculation models for slabs supported on re-entrant corner columns were provided. The mean of the ratio of experimental to theoretical results of EN 1992 and ABNT NBR 6118 equations was found to be more accurate than those of ACI 318 predictions.

Published: February 2025

Introduction: Report writing is considered an essential competency for health professionals. Current research indicates that this area of professional practice appears to be routinely neglected or poorly executed. Previous studies have aimed to understand the reasons for this neglect, however studies specific to occupational therapy practice are lacking.Purpose: This study aimed to explore occupational therapists' perceptions of ethical and legal concerns affecting current practice in report writing within the South African context.Method: This qualitative study included six focus groups with occupational therapy participants from a variety of clinical sites and different fields of practice in South Africa. The qualitative data were inductively analysed to determine specific themes to understand the research question.Results: While occupational therapists voiced uncertainty about ethical and legal aspects report writing, certain profession specific challenges, such as professional identity and the use of professional language, are perceived to cause a disconnect between occupational therapists reporting and clinical practice.Conclusions: The findings of the study indicate that participants were unsure of the details regarding legal and ethical requirements of practice for report writing and voiced both positive and some negative sentiments in terms of reflecting professional identity and profession specific occupational based language acknowledging the challenge of being in a medical setting in reports. The complexity of writing occupational therapy reports was influenced by the audience receiving reports which varies widely varied

Authors: Mthembu Thuli , Kniepmann Kathy
Published: February 2025

Background: Stroke is an acute neurological event that creates extensive life changes for survivors and their family caregivers. Religion, spirituality, and congregational resources can support caregivers' quality of life, but little is known about the role that a clergy has in support of caregivers.Aim: This study explored clergy's roles in supporting family caregivers of relatives with stroke.Methods: An exploratory-descriptive qualitative study was conducted with nine participants who were in a purposeful sample recruited from the faith organisations. A focus group discussion and interviews were performed for data collection. Data were thematically analysed in a credible manner through prolonged engagement and peer examination to enhance trustworthiness.Results: Fives themes that contextualised the abilities of the clergies and their role in supporting families were identified: 1) the importance of spirituality; 2) occupational role of clergy and congregational contributions; 3) family dynamics; 4) caregiver's responsibilities and 5) vision of possibilities.Conclusion: This study provided insight into the roles of clergies as part of the interprofessional teams that support family caregivers of relatives with stroke. Furthermore, the study highlights that there is a need for clinicians, clergies, and families to collaborate so that they may exchange ideas for community stroke support programmes.

Authors: Sultana Sabina , Singh Manvender Kaur Sarjit , Islam Rabiul , Hajimia Hafizah
Published: February 2025

Corpus-based data-driven learning (DDL) is an innovative approach that utilises electronic text collections for linguistic analysis, thereby enhancing teaching practices and learning skills for ESL/EFL students. This innovative method surpasses traditional language teaching approaches. The aim of this study was to examine the impact of incorporating corpora in teaching grammatical constructs, specifically subject-verb agreement rules for ESL/EFL students. Furthermore, it examined ESL/EFL students' perceptions of using corpora for grammar instruction. A mixed method research design was employed, collecting both quantitative and qualitative data through triangulation methods. Data collection involved written essays, two timed writing tasks (a pretest and posttest), and an individual semi-structured interviews. Quantitative data were analysed using rubrics and paired samples t-tests, while thematic analyses were applied to the qualitative data. The analysis of the essays revealed that the students made errors in subject-verb agreement. The paired sample t-test revealed a statistically significant p-value (.0010.05), indicating a notable improvement in the students' mastery of  subject verb agreement rules after receiving DDL instruction. In addition, qualitative interview responses indicated that participants held positive opinions about learning through the DDL approach. They described it as enjoyable, fascinating, and challenging, and believed it to be an effective method for acquiring new grammatical skills. The study concluded with recommendations for English Language Teaching (ELT) instructors and curriculum designers.
Hybrid affixation and reduplication in Bilingual Aphasia: A case study of Sundanese-Indonesian speech deficits
Authors: Hasanah Ninah , Kurniawan Eri , Sudana Dadang
Published: February 2025

This study explores the morphological deficits in a bilingual Sundanese-Indonesian patient diagnosed with mixed aphasia following typhoid meningitis. While previous research on aphasia has primarily focused on monolingual cases, this study addresses the complexities of bilingual language impairment, particularly in a language pair with typologically distinct morphological structures. The primary aim is to examine how aphasia affects the application of derivational and inflectional morphology, shedding light on cross-linguistic interference and compensatory strategies. This study employs a qualitative intrinsic case study approach analyzing speech samples elicited through spontaneous speech recording, observations, and in-depth interviews. The findings reveal two major patterns of morphological deviation: (1) misapplication of Indonesian and Sundanese affixation rules, resulting in hybrid morphological structures, and (2) systematic overgeneralization of reduplication patterns, leading to the emergence of novel linguistic formations. These errors highlight the impact of bilingual language competition on morphological processing in aphasia. The study concludes that bilingual aphasia induces a restructuring of morphological systems rather than mere attrition, with patients actively reconstructing linguistic forms through rule-based blending. These findings have significant implications for clinical linguistics and speech therapy, emphasizing the need for rehabilitation approaches tailored to bilingual aphasia.

This paper presents a small part of the results of a bigger research project carried out under the cooperation between Universitas Pendidikan Indonesia and SEAMEO (Southeast Asian Ministers of Education Organization) Regional Centre for QITEP (Quality Improvement of Teachers and Education Personnel) in Language conducted during 2021-2023. The study, unique in its scale and scope, investigates language policy in ASEAN countries involving eleven experts of foreign language teaching and 4,219 students from all ASEAN countries. This paper presents only data on English language education policy in ASEAN, obtained from a Google forms questionnaire addressing foreign language education policy, and a focus group discussion involving eleven language teaching and policy experts in ASEAN countries. The qualitative analysis identified two key themes, including the existence of law on English and their application in primary and secondary education. The results show that all ASEAN countries have distinct legal frameworks for English education, positioning English as the dominant foreign language.  While most countries mandate English as a compulsory subject at primary and secondary levels, some also prioritize other foreign languages like French and Portuguese. English frequently serves as a medium of instruction (EMI) alongside local languages, reflecting innovative bilingual and multilingual policy approaches. This study uniquely highlights how ASEAN countries balance the global importance of English with preserving local linguistic identities.

Increasing the retention rate of female students in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) fields has always been challenging in many institutions. Engineering is among the male-dominated fields in both academia and the workplace. In Malaysia, recent statistics indicate that the number of women choosing engineering as a degree is still not encouraging. This paper focuses on the design, implementation, and evaluation of the programs aimed at empowering female students in engineering, where it discusses the methodologies used, the effectiveness of the programs, and the impact on students' perceptions and attitudes toward engineering. Several retention programs that target female engineering students were employed, such as providing a peer-supportive environment, establishing a society of women engineers in university, organizing cooperative events and activities, and exposing them to successful female role models. The effectiveness of the programs was evaluated using a survey administered to female undergraduate students at Taylor’s University, Malaysia as part of a one-year project titled “EWE: Empowering Engineering Female Students to Improve Retention and Progression”, funded by Engineering Information Foundation (EiF). By using thematic coding and statistical tests, the survey aimed to investigate the motives behind female students' decisions to pursue engineering as a degree and assess Self-efficacy and Sustained Interest in Engineering as a result of the empowerment programs. The programs implemented here can be adapted by other universities, especially in Malaysia aiming to provide opportunities and success rates for female engineers.

The heat-affected zone (HAZ) of a thermite weld contains softer parts that are weak and need to be modified for best rail performance. This study examines how welding heat inputs of FCAW, and preheating temperatures affect the microstructure and hardness of its weld metal and HAZ after repairing the weak area of thermite welded rail. To improve the weak area’s microstructure and hardness without degrading the original thermite-welded rail, a groove was carved from the center of the HAZ on the rail head and filled using flux-cored arc welding. The investigation used two welding currents and preheating temperatures referred to as FCAW 1 and FCAW 2. The optical and electron microscopic characterization of the pearlite microstructure and interlamellar spacing were carried out. Additionally, micro-Vickers hardness testing is done. The typical hardness of the HAZ in FCAW 1 was 410 HV, whereas, in FCAW 2, it was 340 HV. The interlamellar spacings of HAZ in FCAW 1 and FCAW 2 are 80 and 105 nm, respectively. The faster cooling made pearlite interlamellar spacing finer. The decrease in lamellar spacing leads to an increase in hardness. For thermite welded rail head surface HAZ repair, greater heat input and preheating temperature with slow cooling rate work.

"MY SHEVCHENKO ENCYCLOPEDIA" BY L. USHKALOV AS A FORMAT OF AN ESSAY COLLECTION
Authors:   Odesa I. I. Mechnikov National University, Shevchenko Tetiana
Published: February 2025

В a c k g r o u n d . "My Shevchenko encyclopedia: from the experience of selfdiscovery" by L. Ushkalov is a special literary project that contains features of an encyclopedic work and a collection of essays. This book was practically not an object of scientific understanding, but it attracts literary critics from the point of view of format organization and genre features. The purpose of the article is to analyze L. Ushkalov's book from the point of view of the author's personalization method of T. Shevchenko, and from the point of view of the self-presentation of the author of this work in the format of new artistic practices.
M e t h o d s . A complex methodology was used in the scientific work: biographical, hermeneutic, and structural approaches were applied.
R e s u l t s . It was found that "My Shevchenko Encyclopedia" is a vivid example of a collection of essays (author's lexicon) as a productive artistic practice in modern Ukrainian literature, notable for its creativity. According to many signs, this book is a collection of essays – mentative works compiled by the author into a whole. However, here the works are grouped alphabetically and dedicated to one figure. The single substance of all these articles-essays is the author himself. All texts in the collection are marked with an underlined author's presence. Whatever the artist writes about, he writes primarily about himself. In the texts about T. Shevchenko, objects, phenomena, concepts, events are described, which, of course, are important, but their place in the life and consciousness of the essayist himself is no less important. What is important here are not the stories and situations connected with the author's interpretation, but their mental presentation, not T. Shevchenko's actual work, but its individual authorial interpretation, not the image of the artist, but his artistic inlay, reified in the images and imageconcepts by L. Ushkalov.
C o n c l u s i o n s . The value of such a work is twofold: both from the point of view of the author's method of personalization of T. Shevchenko, and from the point of view of the self-presentation of the author of this work in new artistic practices.
SHEVCHENKO'S WORK "BETWEEN THE ROCKS, LIKE A THIEF..." IN THE PERSPECTIVE OF CHRISTIAN COMMANDMENTS AND HONESTY
Authors:   Khmelnytskyi National University, Khmelnytskyi, Ukraine, Yaremenko Vasyl
Published: February 2025

I n t r o d u c t i o n . The relevance is due to the fact that modern civilization is gradually losing its Christian foundations and through the creativity of great writers people need to be reminded of them in order to convey their moral and ethical zeal.
M e t h o d s . The study is based on textual, in particular lexical, analysis of the work in comparison with other texts by Shevchenko and Christian literature (the Bible, works of the Church Fathers, etc.). The main focus is on Christian precepts.
R e s u l t s . In the statistic, which is transferred to the lexical level and from the received Christian literature, the Christian content of Shevchenko's work "Between the rocks, like a thief..." has been noted for a long time. The idea of forgiveness is detailed. Respect grows in this connection from Christ's twofold commandment of Love and church practice. In addition to this greatest Christian commandment, the analysis intersperses the first, seventh, eighth, and tenth commandments laid down in the Old Testament. Introducing the carnage of the poet's work, it is explained why the author chose for the plot the couple's betrayal from the woman's side. It is clear why one of the Chumak songs is quoted in the text. Further, the theme of dialogue between Shevchenko's texts is developed and its connections with Christianity are shown. There is a reverence for the parable character of the work. The analysis allows you to expand the scope of rich words and new developments ("Moskowka (Moscow woman)", "sobbed like a child", etc.). The scene of forgiveness is clearly depicted in the poem. The artistic thoroughness and psychological depth are revealed.
C o n c l u s i o n s . It can be concluded that due to the Christian values presented in the work, the poem belongs to the examples of high literature. Attention is drawn to the possible directions of the author's revision of the poem. It is clear that the comments on this creation will be rich.
Earthquake Source Parameter Estimation Using Distributed Acoustic Sensing and Frequency Wavenumber Scaling
Authors: Lior Itzhak
Published: February 2025

Distributed acoustic sensing (DAS) holds great promise for seismic moment and stress-drop estimation owing to its dense spatial sampling that fosters advanced array processing techniques and the ability to average source parameter estimates along a sensing optical fiber. The main caveat in this application lies in the measurand: Although source parameter estimation requires ground motions, DAS measures strain, and data conversion is usually required. In this study, I use a strain rate to ground acceleration conversion approach in the frequency–wavenumber domain and show that it can be directly used to obtain acceleration amplitude spectra (AS). This approach is found to be equivalent to spatial integration without a colocated seismometer. The approach is applied to 44 earthquakes recorded by an optical fiber in Israel. Converted acceleration AS were calculated using short-fiber segments and fitted with a source model to estimate source parameters. Within-event parameter variabilities are found to be similar for DAS and accelerometer-derived source parameters. DAS-derived magnitudes and stress drops are slightly higher than accelerometer-derived parameters, with average DAS and accelerometer stress drops of 16.1 and 4.1 MPa, respectively. Stress drops appear to increase with seismic moment, probably due to the limited frequency range of the source parameter inversion. The results demonstrate the great potential of DAS for source studies.

Menemukan alternatif strategi untuk meningkatkan minat membaca anak, khususnya di sekolah dasar, menjadi tujuan penelitian ini. Minat membaca siswa mempunyai pengaruh yang signifikan. Siswa, instruktur, dan orang tua semuanya memiliki tanggung jawab untuk mencoba membuat siswa sekolah dasar lebih tertarik membaca. Namun, salah satu tantangannya adalah kurangnya semangat dan kecenderungan siswa sekolah dasar untuk membaca, dan guru tidak mewajibkan anak-anak membaca buku sebagai bagian dari pendidikan mereka. Untuk meningkatkan minat membaca siswa sekolah dasar perlu didukung agar minat membaca mereka berkembang dan dipaparkan pada bahan bacaan sehingga mereka terbiasa membaca. Dengan demikian, kebiasaan membaca siswa sekolah dasar akan menumbuhkan minat membaca yang kuat seiring bertambahnya usia. Merumuskan masalah penelitian dan mencari referensi di internet dari publikasi terkait dan pembanding untuk mengevaluasi data adalah langkah awal dalam penelitian ini. Artikel dikumpulkan menggunakan Google Scholar dan/atau Google Cendikia. Data yang dikumpulkan diperiksa dan dikontraskan. Penelitian ini menggunakan teknik kuantitatif dan desain penelitian deskriptif. Berdasarkan temuan analisis, hal ini dapat meningkatkan semangat membaca siswa sekolah dasar.
