Published: November 2022

Abstract: Aim Positive relationships between occupancy and abundance are often found for different groups of organisms and ecosystem types. However, to our knowledge, no study has sought to assess this relationship considering a context in which a particular mechanism is the most likely explanation. In this study, in addition to the positive relationship with abundance, we tested the hypothesis that occupancy of zooplankton species should be greater during the flood season because in this period the hydrological connectivity is greater than in the dry season, facilitating passive dispersal between floodplain environments. Methods Our study was carried out at 52 sites - including lakes and rivers - on the Araguaia River floodplain. We used an analysis of covariance to test the effects of abundance and hydrological period on zooplankton occupancy. Results We found, as expected, a positive relationship between occupancy and abundance of zooplankton species in each hydrological period. Our results also indicated that, with the increase in abundance, species occupancies were higher in the flood than in the dry season. Conclusions The positive effect of the flood on zooplankton occupancy can be explained by the increase in water level that increases the hydrological connectivity and the potential for plankton passive dispersal.

Published: November 2022

Este trabajo se lo realizó en el cantón Salitre, provincia del Guayas, con el propósito de evaluar las defoliaciones por Cerotoma fascialis mediante dos métodos de muestreos en dos variedades de soya (Glycine max). La metodología que se empleó fue un diseño de bloques completamente al azar (DBCA) con arreglo factorial 2x2 donde Factor A representó las variedades: INIAP 308 y FAENA; y Factor B representó los tipos de muestreos: Sistemático y Aleatorio, asignado en 4 tratamientos y 5 repeticiones: T1 (INIAP 308*muestreo sistemático), T2 (INIAP 308*muestreo aleatorio), T3 (FAENA*muestreo sistemático), T4 (FAENA*muestreo aleatorio). Para la comparación de las medias entre los tratamientos se implementó la prueba de rangos múltiples de Tukey al 5% de probabilidad. Resultados: El muestreo aleatorio fue el método menor preciso para el conteo de defoliaciones reflejando el menor promedio con 11.27 perforaciones; por otro lado, el muestreo sistemático fue más preciso y significante obteniendo el mayor promedio con 13.55 perforaciones. Conteo de perforaciones, T4 (FAENA*muestreo aleatorio) presentó menor promedio con 8.57 perforaciones; al contrario, T1 (INIAP 308*muestreo sistemático) fue significante con mayor promedio de 17.90 perforaciones. Estos resultados inciden en el porcentaje de afectación donde el menor promedio lo tuvo T4 (FAENA*muestro aleatorio) con 30.46%; mientras que, el mayor promedio fue T1 (INIAP 308*muestreo sistemático) con 56.94% de afectación. La variedad FAENA tuvo menor intensidad de defoliación con 8.88 perforaciones; sin embargo, la variedad INIAP 308 fue significante presentando susceptibilidad con 15.93 perforaciones.
A proposed method for predicting extreme design forces of wave energy converters
Authors: Wang Yingguang
Published: November 2022

This paper proposes to utilize a Generalized Gamma distribution for fitting the significant wave height data in order to more accurately calculate the sea state parameter distribution tails. The accuracy of the proposed method has been demonstrated based on the fittings to two ocean wave data sets. This proposed method has subsequently been utilized for deriving a 50-year environmental contour line. The engineering significance of using a more reliable contour line such as the one derived using the proposed method for predicting the long-term design force values for wave energy converters has been highlighted.
TengizChevroil future growth project, Kazakhstan – the design of temporary haul roads
Authors: Nowak Paul , Barr James
Published: November 2022

The 36km haul road for the TengizChevroil future growth project in western Kazakhstan provided a unique opportunity to examine the dynamic effect of heavy traffic loading on earthworks. The haul road was constructed to facilitate transport of 252 partially constructed module units from a purpose-built terminal in the Caspian Sea. The ground underlying the haul road comprises recent, predominantly granular deposits with palaeo-channels of very soft cohesive material up to 4 m thick. The module units, weighing up to 2300 t, were transported on multi-wheeled trailers imparting a maximum distributed ground bearing pressure of 80 kN/m2. All areas underlain by soft cohesive soils were not treated, but a budget allocated for maintenance during operation of the road. The haul road was designed using quasi-static loading with checks using limit equilibrium and finite-element methods. The construction programme allowed instrumentation installed during the ground investigation to be used to complete a dynamic embankment trial to monitor settlement and pore-water pressure response in the underlying soils, which was supplemented by further monitoring during haul road operation. The monitoring indicated that adoption of the quasi-static approach for traffic loading does not realistically reflect short-duration dynamic loading on earthworks and that the quasi-static approach is highly conservative when applied to moving loads.
Effect of multiwalled carbon nanotube size on electrical properties of cement mortar composites

Published: November 2022

Cement mortars (CM) containing different contents and sizes of multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were prepared using surfactants in combination with ultrasonic dispersion. The effects of the content, diameter and length of MWCNTs on the electrical conductivity of cement mortar and the self-inductive piezoresistive rate under single and cyclic loading were studied using the four-electrode method. The results show that the conductive percolation thresholds of CMs containing MWCNTs with different length–diameter ratios occur at an approximate MWCNT content of 0.1 wt%. The electrical conductivity of cement mortars with MWCNT diameters of 10–20 nm was the largest for a content of 0.1 wt%, and the values were 112% and 128.3% of the conductivity of the MWCNTs/CM with diameters of 20–40 nm and 40–60 nm, respectively. In addition, the fractional change in resistivity of the cement mortar specimens varied most significantly at a content of 0.75 wt% of MWCNTs; the fractional change in resistivity reached 14.27%. Adding small-diameter MWCNTs to cement mortar can maximise the sensitivity of electrical resistance of cement mortar to compressive stress.

Published: November 2022

In this study, the self-crimping process of multichain polystyrene into a carbon nanotube was investigated by molecular dynamics simulation. The simulation shows that multichain polystyrene arranged in parallel can self-crimp into a carbon nanotube and form a helix configuration. The formation mechanism illustrates that both the van der Waals potential well and the π–π stacking interaction between polystyrene and the carbon nanotube play a major role in the self-assembly process. Furthermore, some factors such as the chain number of polystyrene, the length of the polymer, the diameter of the carbon nanotube and the simulation temperature are also investigated. Moreover, different replaced polymers are shown, too. This theoretical research can provide valuable support for the design and manufacturing of hybrid structures in the fields of advanced composite materials and functional devices.
The Doctors of Democracy: Self-Image and Democratic Values of Participatory Practitioners
Authors: Friess Dennis , Herff Nina Katharina
Published: November 2022

Against the backdrop of a perceived crisis of democracy, governments around the globe have extended citizens’ opportunities for public participation. Due to the increasing routinization of participatory processes, a vibrant participation industry has emerged where Professional Participation Practitioners (PPP) sell their services and knowledge to public clients. Despite the powerful role PPP play throughout the process of public participation, scholarly attention has been limited. This study provides seldom insides on PPP self-image and democratic value perceptions using an innovative Q-methodology design. Findings reveal similarities between PPP with regard to the commitment to strengthen democracy, providing transparent and fair participatory processes and raising citizens democratic competences. Further, PPP perceive their influential role within the participatory process but unanimously reject responsibility for final outcomes. Regarding difference among the surveyed PPP an explorative factor analysis suggests five distinguished types (Empowering Democracy Enhancer, Mediating Facilitator, Enlightening Contractor, Democratic Teacher, Agonistic Mediator). This typology sets the ground for further research on PPP who are likely to affect democratic practices not only nowadays but also in the future.
Completeness in reporting of surrogate primary endpoints in Randomised Controlled Trials: A targeted review protocol v1
Authors: Muchai Manyara Anthony
Published: November 2022

Introduction Using a surrogate endpoint as a substitute for a patient-relevant final outcome enables randomised controlled trials (RCTs) to be conducted more efficiently. However, there is currently no consensus-driven reporting guideline for RCTs using a surrogate endpoint as a primary outcome. Therefore, we are developing SPIRIT (Standard Protocol Items: Recommendations for Interventional Trials) and CONSORT (Consolidated Standards of Reporting Trials) extensions to improve the design and reporting of these trials. As an initial step, a targeted review will identify participants to contribute to a Delphi consensus process and document current reporting of surrogate endpoints in trial protocols and reports. Methods and analysis We will search for RCT reports and protocols published from 2017 to mid-2022 in six high impact general medical journals (Annals of Internal Medicine, BMJ, Journal of the American Medical Association, New England Journal of Medicine, Lancet, and PLoS Medicine) and two journals that commonly publish protocols: BMJ Open and Trials. Analysis will be done using frequencies and simple thematic analysis. Ethics and dissemination Ethical approval is not required. The review will support the development of SPIRIT and CONSORT extensions for reporting surrogate primary endpoints (surrogate endpoint as the primary outcome) and future evaluation of the impact of the extensions. The findings will be published in an open-access publication.

The demand for domestication and localization of children’s literature compels translators to not only translate the texts but also transadapt them. Significant problems arise when the texts have to fit the cultures and religions of the target users. This qualitative study attempts to address this issue. Gathering teachers of Taman Pendidikan Al Qur’an (TPQ) or Qur’an study club for Muslim children in the Greater Boyolali area of Indonesia, children’s literature translators, and TPQ students in a Focus Group Discussion, we investigated the strategies of transadapting fables in English into Bahasa Indonesia with Islamic values as the core teaching along with the impacts ensued. Through the FGD constructed based on the purification strategy by Klingberg (1986), translation as adaptation and selection by Gengshen (2003), children picturebook translation by Oittinen (2000), narrative connectedness by Christman (2004), proairetic decoding by Nikolajeva (2010), and skopos by Reiss and Vermeer (2014), paratextualization, insertion, and bleaching strategies are constructed. Paratextualization adds clickable religious comments on the digital versions of the fables. Insertion adds religious lessons within the text. Bleaching refines any expressions considered unfit for the target religious values. These strategies trigger an impact called drifting. To reveal the extent of faithfulness, we constructed a drifting-level assessment. This assessment enables translators to reveal whether a transadapted children’s literature is still on track, slipped, or out of track. The study finding is expected to fill up the theoretical absence of transadaptation strategies and drifting level assessment. Its practical nature also brings benefits for children’s literature translators and TPQ teachers.
Parents’ mediation and a child’s agency: A transnational sojourner family’s online and offline language socialization
Authors: Sari Artanti Puspita
Published: November 2022

Parents of transnational sojourner families, who stay temporarily in a country other than their own, navigate across online and offline spaces to mediate their children’s socialization into the linguistic competence they need for both contexts, namely the host country and the homeland. Simultaneously, their children establish agency in developing their own linguistic competence. However, language socialization studies have rarely examined the interconnection between parents’ mediation and children’s agency across both online and offline spaces of socialization. In this light, this study presents an ethnographic study that examined parents’ mediation and a child’s agency in the online and offline language socialization of an Indonesian-Muslim transnational sojourner family in the United States, which is underexplored in language research.  Additionally, using Darvin and Norton’s (2015) investment model, it explored how the family’s identities, ideologies, and capital structured the child’s language socialization.  Data were collected from observations, interviews, and artifacts that depict language practices within the family.  In-depth thematic analysis through triangulation of the various forms of data was conducted to obtain trustworthiness.  The findings demonstrated that parents’ mediation and their child’s agency across online and offline spaces contributed to the development of the child’s linguistic and multimodal repertoires while also strengthening the family’s local and cross-border connections. The findings also demonstrated competing priorities in identity as well as in social and cultural capital investment, which were eventually resolved. The study provides a deeper understanding of transnational sojourners’ language investment in their imagined communities, which span across the host and the home countries.
E-portfolio as an academic writing assessment tool in higher education: Strengths and challenges
Authors: Ngui Wirawati , Pang Vincent , Hiew Wendy
Published: November 2022

This study investigated the use of an e-Portfolio for assessment at a Malaysian public university. Prior to the advent of the Internet, paper portfolios are ubiquitous forms of projects and assessments. However, they have limitations in terms of portability, shareability, and delayed two-way communication between instructors and students about progress. In lieu of paper portfolio, the e-Portfolio was introduced in an advanced English language course at a public university in Malaysia. The novelty of the e-Portfolio’s implementation renders it necessary to seek the insights of those who are directly involved in its use. Therefore, this study aims to explore the perceptions of the instructors and students regarding their use of the e-Portfolio throughout the course. This is a qualitative study whereby the main data collection method involved interviews. The data were imported to NVivo 12, and thematic analysis was used as the primary method of data analysis. A total of three instructors and 18 students participated in this study. The findings reveal that the instructors and students perceived the contribution of the e-Portfolio in the aspects of writing stages, digital artefacts, accessibility, personalised writing experience, feedback and communication, and motivation. The results demonstrate that mutually perceived challenges by the instructors and students were poor Internet connectivity and difficulty adapting to the e-Portfolio. The study highlights the benefits and shortcomings of using the e-Portfolio as an assessment tool for academic writing. This will guide practitioners and researchers to better implement the e-Portfolio in higher education institutions.

Published: November 2022

Evidence suggests that autonomous language learning has been one of the primary areas of interest in the field of English Language Teaching due to its fundamental roles in empowering students in taking the responsibility for their learning both in and out of the classroom. This study set out to investigate the structural relationships among the dimensions of English student teacher perception towards their roles and strategies in promoting autonomous language learning and professional autonomy. A total of 357 student teachers of English from Indonesia participated in this study. Eligibility criteria required the participants to have taken courses on English Language Teaching Methodology to ensure their understanding about the concepts of autonomous language learning and their future roles and strategies in fostering and promoting autonomous language learning. Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) with MPlus 7.2 was used to test the models proposed in this study. The findings showed that the dimensions of student teacher roles and strategies in promoting autonomous language learning and professional autonomy were weakly to moderately related to one another, suggesting how teacher education institutions need to provide sufficient trainings on the concept and practice of autonomous language learning. Several noteworthy findings are summarized and discussed thoroughly in the discussion section.
Enhancing student participation in learning to write a recount text: Learning from EFL pre-service teachers in implementing R2L pedagogy
Authors: Nurlaelawati Iyen , Gunawan Wawan , Lengkanawati Nenden Sri
Published: November 2022

Reading to Learn (R2L) Pedagogy evolved from the development of genre pedagogy, which has gained more attraction in language teaching and learning. In an effort to continuously yield empirical advantages in supporting students’ learning in reading and writing, genre pedagogy has been much researched in the field of teaching involving experienced teachers. Nonetheless, investigating R2L pedagogy enacted by EFL preservice teachers having no experience in teaching leaves a gap in the existing literature, thus becoming the aim of this study. The study was carried out in a case study design, involving three preservice teachers in a teaching practicum program as the participants. The study took place in a high school in West Java Province, Indonesia. The data were collected through classroom observations and interviews, which then were analyzed to search for themes generated by a qualitative approach and amplified by pedagogic register analysis.  The findings showed that through adaptation and modification, the participants implemented most of the stages of R2L pedagogy in their teaching context. The phases of teaching and learning created classroom interaction better between the preservice teachers and students, leading to enhancing student participation in the teaching and learning activities. The analysis also indicated the challenges that the participants encountered, such as text selection and contextual strategies of detailed reading. This study suggests that R2L pedagogy provides purposeful staged activities significant in enhancing students’ participation, thus leading to better student learning engagement.

Published: November 2022

Efforts to reduce emission of toxic gases into the atmosphere by sea transportation have been consistently carried out by the International Maritime Organisation (IMO) since 2009. IMO has introduced a regime known as energy efficiency design index (EEDI) to monitor and quantify the emission of CO2 because of its global climate impact. A comparison was conducted between trimaran hull forms without and with Axe-Bow on the main-hull with S/L=0.3 and 0.4, as well as a comparison with a monohull of comparable displacement. The CFD method was used to analyse resistance. Overall, the trimaran without the Axe-Bow can decrease resistance by 22.6%, while the trimaran with the axe-bow can reduce resistance by 25.0%. Additionally, this resulted in a 54.8% decrease in EEDI on trimarans without axe-bow and a 55.4% reduction on trimaran equipped with axe-bow when compared to MV Sabuk Nusantara 104. In addition, despite little difference between trimaran with and without axe-bow, the introduction of axe-bow has shown apparent benefits to lower EEDI.
Overview of New Regulations on Reception and Handling of Ship Waste
Authors:   University of Rijeka, Faculty of Maritime Studies, Rukavina Biserka
Published: November 2022

In 2019, a new Directive (EU) 2019/883 on port facilities for the reception of ship-generated waste was adopted at the level of the European Union), repealing the old Directive 2000/59/EC of 2000 (hereinafter: Directive (EU) 2019/883). In order to implement the Directive (EU) 2019/883 into the national legal system, in 2021 the Republic of Croatia adopted a new Ordinance on the terms and methods of maintaining order in ports and other parts of the internal sea waters and the territorial sea of the Republic of Croatia (hereinafter: Ordinance) and thus transposed the new regulations on the delivery and handling of ship-generated waste into the Croatian legal system. The aim of the paper is to present the new solutions for the reception and handling of ship-generated waste from the Directive (EU) 2019/883 and to compare the solutions from the Directive (EU) 2019/883 with the Croatian legal framework for the reception and handling of ship-generated waste through a comparative analysis. Finally, an assessment of the creation of an adequate legal framework for the reception and handling of ship-generated waste in Croatian ports is provided, as well as suggestions for filling existing legal gaps. An analysis of the Croatian legal framework has shown that there are mutual inconsistencies, and that there is a need to revise the provisions of the Maritime Code and the Ordinance when receiving and handling of ship-generated waste.
Quarantinism and Sanitarism as Strategies for Social Order’s Management and Epidemic Control in 19th-Century Europe
Authors: Mikhel Dmitriy
Published: November 2022

The history of social order’s management and epidemic control in nineteenth-century Europe provides a wealth of evidence for understanding how and why different countries responded to the challenges of dangerous infectious diseases. The two most significant preventive strategies used in the nineteenth century were quarantinism, which consists in limiting active economic activities, and sanitarism, which involves improving the sanitary conditions of the population. In 1947, the German physician and medical historian Erwin Ackerknecht, for the first time analyzed these strategies and thus initiated a discussion of the determinants of medical knowledge and public health. This debate is still ongoing and has been reinvigorated in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. Familiarity with some of the points made in that debate may be very useful today, as it will not only give a fuller impression of how some areas of historical science have developed, but also shed new light on the question of how humanitarians make their judgments about such a significant area as the field of public health. The article examines three plots: 1) the explanatory model of quarantinism and sanitarism proposed by Ackerknecht, 2) use of his model by a new generation of scholars who entered this debate in the last quarter of the twentieth century, and 3) the experience of reinterpreting this model to reflect new approaches, in particular the expansive model proposed by Peter Baldwin.
Russian-German Relations and the Resignation of Otto von Bismarck
Authors: Matveeva Anna
Published: November 2022

The resignation of the first chancellor of the German Empire, Prince Otto von Bismarck, has been studied by German historians for a long time and from various points of view, but at the same time, due to the diversity of causes and controversial consequences, it is still a debatable problem. The relevance of the history of bilateral Russian-German relations remains unchanged, and even becomes significant at the present stage of European history. No one has specifically dealt with the issue of Russian-German relations and negotiations, as well as the identification of particularly acute issues that occupied both sides in the midst of the chancellor crisis in the winter-spring of 1890, and this article is intended to fill this gap. The main sources of the work were the reports, letters and telegrams of the Russian ambassador Count P. A. Shuvalov to the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Empire N. K. Girs, stored in a special folder in the Secret Archive of the Minister of the Archive of the Foreign Policy of the Russian Empire (AVPRI). An analysis of these documents, some of which are being introduced into scientific circulation for the first time, shows: Russia's main task was to achieve an extension of the Reinsurance Treaty, which would expired in the summer of 1890. The treaty ensured the stability of bilateral relations, which was one of the cornerstones of the security system in Central Europe and the Balkans. The more specific issue of the “Bulgarian loan” and the provocative activity of Austria-Hungary in Bulgaria, which Russia was extremely concerned about, was also connected with the Balkan region. The non-renewal of the Reinsurance Treaty, which was a result of Bismarck's resignation, marked the beginning of the rapprochement between Russia and France and, consequently, the folding of the Entente, which meant that the main Bismarck's fear — the “nightmare of coalitions” — came true and the further narrowing of mutually beneficial contacts between Russia and Germany, which single-handedly were the guarantee of peace in Europe.

The article is based on documents of the Russian State Archive of Socio-Political History and the Central Archive of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation. It focuses on the stages of the formation, completion and combat use of the Czechoslovak military units created in the USSR during the Second World War. The special attention is paid to the identification of the trends and problems of the history of these formations. These topics were not developed in historiography. The history of the Czechoslovak military units passed several stages due to the creation and reorganization of these units. The Emigrant Government of Czechoslovak to eliminate these formations. The trends of the historical path of the Czechoslovak military units were, firstly, in the subordination of the formation of new, higher units due to the emergence of new mobilization contingents. The path of the Czechoslovak military units accompanied the diverse problems associated with their completion and supply. The overwhelming part of the problems was resolved only by the end of the war. The value of the Czechoslovak military units cannot be expressed in numbers, because their participation in the war was huge from the perspective of political importance for both Czechoslovakia and the USSR. In general, the formation and combat activities of the Czechoslovak military units should be recognized as a unique and very successful experience.

Authors: Bagazi Afrah
Published: November 2022

This study investigates the relationship between reading self-concept and motivation among a group of male and female students with reading difficulties, also exploring this according to gender variables. The paper also seeks to determine to what extent reading self-concept can predict reading motivation among these target students. The study sample comprised a group of 100 mixed male and female students studying at upper-primary schools in Al-Kharj, Saudi Arabia, all of whom faced reading difficulties (RD). The researcher prepared and applied two tools in questionnaire form, the Reading Self-Concept Scale questionnaire (RSCSQ) and the Reading Motivation Scale questionnaire (RMSQ), both of which had acceptable validity and reliability. The study found a significant positive correlation between the total RSCSQ score and its reading ability domain and the total RMSQ score with each of its two domains. There is a significant positive correlation between the reading difficulties domain and the external reading motivation domain but no correlation between the reading difficulty domain and the total RMSQ score and its internal reading motivation domain. Second, the study found that for students with RD, while reading self-concept and its reading ability domain can predict reading motivation; the reading difficulty domain cannot predict reading motivation. These results were consistent both among the group and between gender variables.

Even when the case and transmission of COVID-19 has decreased, health workers still have to work on vaccines and other routine service work. This working situation causes health workers to have a high risk of experiencing burnout syndrome (BOS). The consequences of BOS are exhaustion, decrease in work performance to patients, and inability to complete the given task. Fortunately, with early detection of BOS, the impact of BOS can be reduced. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to identify the BOS perception of health workers. This research was conducted in Kepanjen City which has the most COVID-19 referral hospitals in Malang Regency. This research uses quantitative methods with survey types. Respondents in this study are 562 health workers who are still actively working in three Malang District Hospitals. The research instrument used a BOS scale that was developed by researchers based on the theory of Maslach and Leiter (α = .866). The data analysis technique was carried out using descriptive tests by comparing the hypothetical and empirical mean and SD. The results showed that the BOS rate of health workers in Malang Regency during the COVID-19 pandemic tended to be high.

Final year students often face difficulties such as working on repeated thesis revisions, getting relevant literature, length of feedback from supervisors, and limited research time. Those who use social media tend to experience Fear of Missing Out (FoMO) syndrome. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between mindfulness and FoMO in final year undergraduate students. This study used a correlational quantitative approach. Research participants consisted of 126 final year undergraduate students using purposive sampling. For data collection, two instruments were used: Mindfulness Scale (.847) and Fear of Missing Out Scale (.829). The data were analyzed using Pearson’s Product Moment Correlation. The results showed that there was a significant relationship between mindfulness and FoMO in final year students (Sig. .000 < .05). In addition, the direction of the relationship between the variables was negative (-.308), meaning that the relationship between the two variables was in negative correlation. This means that if the individual had a high state of mindfulness, the tendency to experience FoMO was low. In contrast, if the individual had a low state of mindfulness, then his/her tendency to experience FoMO was high.
