Stilla og ropet – kunstnerisk (ut)forskning gjennom fem elastiske byggekomponenter
Authors: Viig Tine Grieg
Published: April 2022

In this article I explore how the interplay between five elastic building components can take shape in the development of a musical score. With concepts derived from Magnar Åm’s (2004) article “Ikkjetid, ikkjetyngd”, I consider how time, space, weight, contrast and atmosphere come into play through creative work involving both writing and notations. Another part of the starting point for this exploration is the text Stilla og ropet written by Kaisa Aglen (2017). The musical score forms the foundation for opening up spaces of possibilities, for interpretation and performance. In the analysis of the artistic process I look closer at three different modes of exploration through reflection-in-action in the creative work: aesthetic, artistic and structural (Viig, 2020a). Finally, I also reflect on how we can understand this musical score as a form of expression situated in a cultural and sociohistorical context.
Stemmens «korn» som utgangspunkt for en relasjon mellom musikk og språk
Authors: Tellmann Vibeke Andrea
Published: April 2022

Where music sounds, words are silenced, and where words sound, music is silenced. Since the romantic era the relationship between music and language has been characterized by a deep division. In this article I argue for the relationship between music and language based on what I call the sensory materiality of sound, which music and language have in common. Roland Barthes’ understanding of some voices having a specific «grain» which he explores in the essay named «The Grain of the Voice» (1977), demonstrates what I mean by such a term. The «grain» of the voice as a common source for the distribution of language and music, makes it possible for language to be part of music without making music mean specific things. And on the other hand, language, even a theoretical and non-poetic language, can be heard and experienced as musical, as a special kind of musicality in theory.
Å lytte er å skape – å skape er å lytte: Musikkopplevelse og selvforståelse gjennom musikkterapi
Authors: Salhus Øystein
Published: April 2022

The musical experience, the discovery of meaning in the experience, and the conscious intention to use this knowledge in one’s own life, are all central concerns in music therapy. It is the client’s subjective experience of the music that should be the basis for shared understanding between client and therapist, and this has importance for both the musical interaction and the verbal conversation about the musical experience. Using theoretical concepts about music, understanding, experience and intersubjectivity, this article explores how relations between musical experience and the therapeutic aim of self-understanding are exemplified in a case study.

Authors: Gaffar Affan , Jatmiko Yoga Dwi , Prihanto Asep Awaludin
Published: April 2022

Terasi is a food condiment originating from Indonesia which is processed by fermenting shrimp, fish, or a mixture of both. The processing of terasi in Indonesia is still found traditionally so that it will affect the low quality of terasi which is characterized by being contaminated by pathogenic bacteria such as Salmonella. Salmonella is a bacterium that causes foodborne diseases. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the presence of Salmonella in shrimp paste using conventional method and then confirmed with molecular approach. This study used 10 samples consisting modern terasi and five traditional terasi. The isolation of Salmonella spp. carried out by using selective media, and then the isolates were characterized further using biochemical test (TSIA and LIA). The species identification of Salmonella spp. was carried out by multiplex PCR (mPCR). The isolates that were not detected by mPCR were further identified using 16s rDNA sequencing. The isolation results showed that Salmonella isolates were only detected in traditional terasi with a density range of 2.4 x 10 5 2.9 x 10 8 CFU/g. A total of 20 isolates were characterized biochemically as Salmonella, and out of 17 isolates consistently identified as Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium by using mPCR. The rest three isolates were further identified as Citrobacter freundii based on 16s rDNA sequencing with similarity level of 99%. The presence of Salmonella in the shrimp paste indicates that the processing of traditional shrimp paste (terasi) should be evaluated in accordance with good manufacturing process.

New Evidence of Environmental Kuznets Curve Hypothesis in Developing Countries
Authors: Cahyadin Malik , Sari Vita Kartika , Juwita Aulia Hapsari
Published: April 2022

New indexes of environment and institutions are constructed following principal component analysis (PCA), while non-linear panel regression is employed. This study attempts to estimate a non-linear impact of GDP per capita on the environment following the Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) Hypothesis for 97 developing countries during 1991-2014. The study reveals that a traditional EKC shows a U-shaped relationship under static panels, with both quadratic and cubic regressions. Interestingly, the inverted U-shaped occurs when a traditional EKC is estimated by the dynamic panels, with both quadratic and cubic regressions. Moreover, the EKC model is inverted U-shaped following static and dynamic panels, with both quadratic and cubic regressions under institutions. Indeed, the institutions significantly contribute to express EKC in developing countries. Policymakers should formulate environmental policies following climate change mitigation in the environmental sustainability framework, improve the quality of institutions, and increase macroeconomic management to anticipate external shocks such as openness, globalization, and FDI inflows.

CODE-SWITCHING IN INDONESIAN EFL TEACHING-LEARNING CONTEXTS
Authors: Wijaya Kristian Florensio
Published: April 2022

Code-switching had been one of the central discussed educational topics forming in both globalized and Indonesian EFL learning contexts. On the first supportive side, the further utilization of code-switching is cogently supported by Indonesian EFL teachers to better facilitate the whole second language learning dynamics. Taking a glance on another contradictory side, the use of code-switching is strongly discouraged to maximize learners’ target language competencies in a meaningful manner. This qualitative study employed a document analysis approach to proffer the advantageous values potentially imparted by the incorporation of code-switching through Indonesian EFL learning settings. Thirty code-switching studies conducted in this archipelago were carefully selected to generate more robust research findings. Two major themes were unearthed in this study namely code-switching potentially promote more meaningful L2 learning encounters and lead Indonesian EFL learners to foster their target language competencies to the fullest potentials. Regarding the future advancement of code-switching studies in this nation, the researcher expectantly hoped future researchers will conduct more exhaustive library qualitative investigations focusing on the disadvantages of code-switching to provide richer perspectives toward this L2 communication strategy.
THE EPIPHANY OF FACES OF COVID-19 PANDEMIC AS REFLECTED IN EDGAR ALLAN POE’S THE MASQUE OF THE RED DEATH
Authors: Yuliastuti Anicleta , Pasopati Rommel Utungga
Published: April 2022

Edgar Allan Poe’s The Masque of The Red Death is a famous story of a plague in which the infected ones died with blood coming out from pores. Prince Prospero as ruler of that area ignores it but then was killed by a figure with a face full of blood covered in a mask. In the COVID-19 pandemic, the infected ones are quite seen as terror and disgust. People stay away from them as if they are dirty and sinful. It is similar to how Red Masque and Red Death are indicated in Poe’s story. However, Emmanuel Levinas argues that the epiphany of the face invites people to be ethical to others. Then, how is the epiphany of the face reflected in Edgar Allan Poe’s The Masque of The Red Death? By using the qualitative method, written data, concepts, and theories are asserted to answer that question. Comparing Levinas’ explanation, Poe’s story, and today’s pandemic situation could bring in better insight into how the infected ones should be treated better. They must not be excluded, but they need our ethical compassion in answering their presence to us.
ENGLISH EDUCATION MASTER STUDENTS’ PERCEPTIONS ON THEIR SELF-EFFICACY IN EFL SPEAKING LEARNING CONTEXTS
Authors: Wijaya Kristian Florensio
Published: April 2022

AbstractSelf-efficacy should be fully integrated as one of the mainstays assisting multiverse EFL academicians to achieve greater speaking learning achievements, improve their actual communicative competencies, and justify their misconceptions of L2 speaking learning enterprises. Corresponding with these 3 aforementioned advantages, the full activation of robust self-efficacy will potentially allow EFL academicians to show greater effortful actions, resilience, motivation, and commitment to relentlessly forge their L2 communicative competencies in the presence of adverse speaking learning situations. This qualitative study was conducted in the support of the narrative inquiry approach to yield rejuvenated facts, trustworthy truth, and apparent evidence for worldwide EFL educationalists concerning the significance of self-efficacy implementations in diverse wide-ranging L2 speaking classroom vicinities. Two major positive influential factors are deemed as both internal and external factors affecting the luxuriant proliferation of striking L2 speaking skills as well as self-efficacy levels advancement namely the induction of long-life speaking learning endeavor and supportive speaking learning environments. For the future betterment of self-efficacy and EFL speaking studies, varied relevant research instruments need to be mutually accompanied by a considerable number of research participants to produce more significant research results contributing a richer understanding of affective second language learning fields.  Keywords: Self-efficacy, EFL speaking, narrative inquiry
THE DEVELOPMENT OF INTERCULTURAL COMMUNICATION COMPETENCE IN ENGLISH LANGUAGE LEARNING CONTEXT: CASE OF LITERATURE FOR YOUNGER AND OLDER CHILDREN COURSE
Authors: Akmalia Fahira , Komalasari Adesti
Published: April 2022

Globalization and the advancement of technology influence people to communicate with each other. Nowadays, people in different regions and countries interact with each other and intercultural interaction happens among them. In this context, there is intercultural communication when the interaction occurs. In recent years, the emergence of the Intercultural Communication Competence (ICC) concept has entered the education field. This paper discusses the integration of ICC concepts and areas to a course in one of the private universities in Jakarta and sees how the course incorporated ICC concepts for students’ ICC development. The course is Literature for Younger and Older Children that integrates the ICC concept by conducting a virtual exchange program, excursion, and a project for their students. The virtual exchange happened between the participants and their group friends from Sweden. The phenomenology qualitative method was applied to dig deep information about the participants during the course activities. Observation, participants’ video reflection and the virtual exchange program are the data of this research. The result of this research is all of the course activities support the participants to develop the ICC areas; the knowledge, skills of interpreting and relating, skill of cultural awareness, skill of interaction and discovery, and attitudes. At the end of the course, the participants have developed their intercultural communication competence.
Are Swedes really racially color-blind? Examination of racial ascription and degree of Swedishness
Authors: Osanami Törngren Sayaka , Nyström Marcus
Published: April 2022

This is one of the first studies in Sweden testing the notion of racial color-blindness empirically in a Swedish context, by asking a sample of Swedish participants to assign race to images of faces with different phenotypes, rate how ‘Swedish’ the faces are perceived (referred to the degree of ‘Swedishness’) and identify the skin color of the faces (through the NIS skincolor scale). We also use eye-tracking to explore whether participants look differently at faces of different racial groups. The results show that skin-color is a decisive factor in the racial ascription as Black, while skin color is not determinant of the degree of Swedishness. What determines the degree of Swedishness is the racial assignment itself, in other words, how individuals perceive and categorize phenotypes into different racial groups. We conclude that Swedes are not truly racially color-blind and race does indeed matter in Sweden.

Marked peculiarities in the biology of a species that may be observed, possibly regardless of genetic changes, on the periphery of the species habitat may provide for species survival under extreme conditions. The same may be relevant to populations that are isolated, marginal, or remote from the main distribution range of a species. With this in mind, several biological features of the edible dormouse were studied. This rodent species features a vast distribution range in Europe and partly in Asia. Differentiation into subspecies is mostly not observed within the range. This allows comparing the biology of a single species over significantly distant areas. The range of biotope preferences of the dormice on the periphery of their distribution is wider than in the central areas. In the former cases, these rodents were found in forests featuring a significant proportion of birch and aspen in the forest stand. These observations are similar to those on the northern boundary of the dormouse distribution range in Poland and Lithuania. Some specific features of the diet of the species are associated with these habitats. In the Zhiguli Mts. (Russia) and Lithuania, the main diet includes birch seeds. At the same time, fruits and berries, which are of major importance in the other parts of dormice distribution range, are completely absent among the juicy forages. These differences probably underlie the development of a unique mechanism of reproduction control, which is not observed in other mammalian species. On the periphery of the distribution range, the number of sources of the basic forages for the highly specialized species under study is increased compared to the rest of the distribution area, and the reproductive activity of dormice is annual. However, upon the absence of a sufficient amount of the high-calorie food, mass embryonic resorption in most of females occurs. In addition, in the easternmost population, a higher territoriality is featured by females rearing offspring, and the phenomenon of communal nesting by related females is not observed. To confirm whether the genetic or environmental factors are at the base of the biological features described, large-scale population genetic studies are warranted. At the present stage, field studies allow tracing analogous features in other parts of the species habitat and thus help illustrating the ecological plasticity of the oligophagous species under suboptimal conditions.
Operational-search detention (capture) as an object of legal regulation of operational investigative legislation
Authors: Kondrashechkin Roman Viktorovich
Published: April 2022

The subject of scientific research is the peculiarities of legal regulation of legal relations arising during the implementation of operational investigative detention (capture) of persons of operational interest during operational investigative measures provided for in Article 6 of Federal Law No. 144-FZ of August 12, 1995 "On operational investigative activities". The existing criminal procedural grounds for detention do not take into account the specifics and specifics of the activities of operational officers, which causes legal uncertainty in law enforcement practice. Taking into account the practical orientation of the use of operational-investigative detention (seizure), it should be noted that in the normative legal acts regulating the operational-investigative activities of the Department of Internal Affairs there are no norms regulating the grounds and conditions for the use of operational-investigative detention. These grounds should be taken into account and fixed in industry legislative acts, taking into account the specifics of the activities of operational units. Research methods: the method of comparative jurisprudence in the study of the grounds for detention; the method of comparative analysis in determining the compliance of the capabilities of operational units in the implementation of operational investigative detention. The author investigates the actual problems of law enforcement practice concerning the implementation by employees of operational units of such a measure of coercion as operational search detention (seizure). The scientific novelty lies in the analysis of regulatory legal acts regulating the grounds and procedure for detention; in proposals for improving operational investigative legislation. The main conclusions of the study are the need to supplement Article 6 of the Federal Law "On Operational investigative Activities" with the operational investigative measure "Operational investigative detention (seizure)", as well as to supplement Article 15 of the Federal Law with norms regulating the grounds and conditions, the procedure for conducting, the limits of the implementation of operational investigative detention (seizure).

Our objective is to evaluate the impact of individualization of the dialysis dose on the quality of dialysis and the quality of life of our peritoneal dialysis patients.

Quality of life was assessed at least 3 months after individualization of the dialysis dose, by self-questionnaires using the SF-36 (short form) version of the KDQOL (Kidney Disease Quality Of Life) scale. The results of the KDQOL-SF36 are used as quantitative variables related to the achievement of a Kt/V>1.7. Dialysis dose was calculated from dialysate and 24-hour urine, blood samples from patients encoded in the French Language Peritoneal Dialysis Registry (RDPLF). https://www.rdplf-db.org. Pearson's significance test is used to look for a correlation between the SF-36 subscores of the KDQOL scale and Kt/V.

Fifteen patients (eight men, seven women) with a mean age of 65.93 years were eligible for the study.

Our results did not show a direct relationship between Kt/V and quality of life. There was an existing but weak correlation between the sub-scores "physical functioning" and Kt/V as well as between "role limitation due to physical problems" and Kt/V. These correlations do not appear to be significant according to Pearson's significance test. The individualization of the treatment does not seem to have a negative impact on the Kt/V and certain dimensions of the KDQOL SF36 score seem to be less altered (social interactions, social support, life in relation with others). Further studies taking into account the limitations of our study are necessary to generalize such a therapeutic approach.
Peritoneal dialysis in patients with refractory congestive heart failure

Published: April 2022

Chronic heart failure is a growing problem. Despite progress in its management, many patients become refractory to therapies including diuretic resistance, major congestion, and worsening renal function. The only alternative to get rid of excess water and sodium is ultrafiltration, which can be achieved via hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis (PD). The majority of studies have shown multiple benefits of PD as an improvement in functional class, a reduction in hospitalization leading to increased quality of life, and even a reduction in mortality. Being a home dialysis technique, it is more favorably accepted by patients. It remains necessary to confirm these potential positive outcomes and to identify patients who would benefit the most from this treatment in the era of new therapies available to date.

Uncovering the Synchronous Role of Bis-borane with Nucleophilic Solvent as Frustrated Lewis pair in Metal-free Catalytic Dehydrogenation of Ammonia-borane

Published: April 2022

Metal free catalysis has emerged as a viable alternative for transition metal based catalysts for enabling different chemical processes, particularly for de/hydrogenation reactions. Herein, employing theoretical studies we reveal the unexpected Frustrated Lewis Pair like reactivity of a boron based catalyst, 9,10-dichlorodiboraanthracene and the ethereal solvent to enable dehydrogenation of ammonia-borane (NH3BH3, AB) under mild conditions. The mechanistic channels thus uncovered reveal that the boron catalyst abstracts a hydride from NH3BH3 followed by crucial stabilisation of the NH3BH2+ moiety by the nucleophilic action of the solvent. H2 is released by the combination of hydride and proton from the borohydride moiety and the solvated NH3BH2+ respectively. Catalysis becomes unfeasible if the Lewis base-like action of the ethereal solvent is not taken into consideration. Thus it is suggested that the clandestine partnership of the Lewis Acid, Boron catalyst and the Lewis Base, ethereal solvent, i.e. FLP like action enables dehydrogenation of NH3BH3 in the instant case.
Inviting Schools in the United States of America and Hong Kong
Authors: Steyn Trudie
Published: April 2022

This article is a follow-up on a previous quantitative study (Steyn, 2007) which explored key aspects that influenced the effective implementation of Invitational Education (IE) in schools in the United States of America (US) and Hong Kong (HK). This is a qualitative study in which an appreciative inquiry (AI) is used to explain staff’s positive perceptions of professional development (PD) programs on IE and strategies in which IE can be implemented. The findings explain how the first three phases of AI: discovery, dreaming and design manifest in the study. The following categories and subcategories emerged: The best practices (The role of leadership: setting the tone; the role of teachers: necessity to be actively involved in IE); and Dreaming and designing: recommendations for effective strategies to implement IE.

After describing the basic tenets of Invitational Education and Buddhist psychology, this articleexplores four commonalities and their implications: The individual is in control; knowing is notdoing; others can help; and we can facilitate others’ efforts to use effective strategies to reachhappiness. The paper concludes by contrasting Invitational Education and Buddhist views onself, perception, and appropriate action. Invitational appropriate wisdom (pradjna paramita)and is totally under the control of the individual.
Cross-Cultural Equivalence and Psychometric Properties of the Traditional Chinese Version of the Inviting School Survey-Revised
Authors: Smith Kenneth H.
Published: April 2022

The Inviting School Survey-Revised (ISS-R) was adapted and translated into Traditional Chinese (ISS-RC), using a five-stepprocess, based on international test administration guidelines, involving judgmental, logical, and empirical methods. Bothversions were administered to a convenience sample of Chinese-English fluent Hong Kong school community members(administrators, teachers, students, parents, and support personnel). A series of repeated measures ANOVAs revealedequivalence between the two versions, ISS-R and ISS-RC Total Scale and Subscales (variances, subscale correlations, internalconsistency) other than the Program Subscale overall mean difference. Item analyses, utilizing repeated measures ANOVAs,revealed significant differences in 11 of the 50 scale items. Suggestions for further development and refinement of the ChineseInvitational School Survey (ISS-RC) are presented. Additionally, recommendations for future research and application of theISS-R and ISS-RC are provided
Six Elements of Diversity

Published: April 2022

Teacher education servers an important role in preparing teacher candidates to engage with diverse student populations. This study supports a need for candidates to practice Invitational Theory and Practice when teaching students from diverse backgrounds. To assess candidate growth, we used Schmidt's (2007) Six Elements to Diversity as a lens for evaluating 38 candidates' reflections after interacting with Native American students in a diversity workshop at a Mid-Western University. The findings reveal that the Six Elements of Diversity were present throughout the reflections with some elements more evident than others; the analysis points to strength and weakness in candidate preparation.

Authors: Ornelles Cecily , Black Rhonda S.
Published: April 2022

This study describes the process of creating an Invitational Learning environment to improve the writing competence of middle school students in two special education classes. Teacher-student interactions were coded according to Purkey and Novak’s (1996) Intentionality/Invitation Quadrant with levels corresponding to intentionally disinviting, unintentionally disinviting, unintentionally inviting, and intentionally inviting. After only two training sessions, teacher-student interactions were markedly more inviting.
