Abstract

The problem of "cheating on tests" is not only a polemic one, but is also full of controversy. This is so, when the subject is viewed both from a didactics and pupil evaluation perspective and from a human values perspective. Hence, "cheating on tests" constitutes a significant and challenging research theme. Thus, turning "cheating on tests" into a problem is to rethink it on a critical and strongly based way, which enables the perception and analysis of the several sides of its origin and circumstances. Bearing that on mind, that survey bases itself on the Social Representation Theory to discuss images, concepts, practices and tools as well as to study alternatives of that "problem", giving special attention to the interrelation between school and psychosocial reasons.

Keywords: social representation; "cheating on tests"; teaching; research.

Removal of Malachite Green and Congo Red Dyes from Water by Polyacrylonitrile Carbon Fibre Sorbents
Authors: Swan Ng Boon , Zaini Muhammad Abbas Ahmad
Published: September 2019

The present work was aimed at evaluating the adsorption properties of malachite green and congo red dyes by polyacrylonitrile carbon fibre sorbents. The sorbents were activated and oxidized using potassium hydroxide and ammonium persulfate, respectively at mild conditions. Consequently, the sorbents were characterized for surface area, surface functional groups and thermal decomposition. The activated sorbent displayed a 18.8 mg/g (94 %) of malachite green removal at Co = 20 mg/L, while both modified sorbents showed a 17.5 mg/g (87.5 %) removal of congo red at the same concentration. All sorbents showed a rapid equilibrium of malachite green and congo red dyes in water. Also, the sorbents are somewhat tolerable against different solution pH conditions despite a slight change due to possible electrostatic interactions. Thus, the materials could be successfully employed to treat dyes-laden wastewater.

Authors: Sampieri-Cabrera R. , Sosa-Romano LF , Inclán-Rubio V.
Published: September 2019

The use of collaborative learning in the classroom or on virtual platforms has been demonstrated in the multiple works of educational research, the results are conclusive, the students that deal with the capacity of reasoning, the retention of concepts, communication skills and the organization, among others. In the health sciences, it is essential to work in the team, health services are in collaboration and the formation of multidisciplinary working groups. Doctors, nurses, pharmacists, biochemists, social workers, psychologists, among others, they must develop oral and written communication skills and be able to give medical advice that contributes to the patient's health. In other words, the very nature of medicine emanates from the social sciences and clinics and understands the patient as a subject with multiple needs, which can only be met by a team working with a common goal and collaboration to achieve it. We must teach students of health sciences to work collaboratively, the time to do it is during their school education, in simulated environments, so that, in clinical practice, they can form work teams that contribute to improving the condition of health of its population.That is why, in this work we reflect on the academic needs involved in the application of collaborative learning in undergraduate courses in health sciences.

This study was conducted to examine the influence of female genital mutilation on women sexual activities in Oke-Ona community, Abeokuta North Local Government Area of Ogun-State, South-West Geopolitical Zone of Nigeria with respect to: sexual satisfaction, sexual desire and virginal penetration experience. In order to achieve its aim, the study raised three hypotheses, each on sexual satisfaction, sexual desire and virginal penetration experience. These hypotheses were tested through t-test statistical method via the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) 23rd version. Results showed no positive interaction between genital mutilation and sexual satisfaction [t (109) = .560, P>.05]. It also revealed no significance in the mean difference frequency of sexual desire of genitally mutilated women compared to those not genitally mutilated [t (109) = - .640, P>.05]. Besides, the findings indicated no significant difference in the mean difference in the vaginal penetration experience between genitally mutilated women and those not genitally mutilated [t (109) = −1.523, P>.05]. Furtherance to the conclusions drawn, the implications of the findings were discussed and recommendations were made.

Authors: Kolawole I. Oladeji
Published: September 2019

The purpose of this paper is to validate measurement instrument that can be used to determine tourism impacts, people’s quality of life, and support for tourism. The primary data for this study were collected from 394 households in Maun, Botswana. Exploratory factor analysis was performed to measure internal consistency, construct and content validity to explicate the robustness of the factor structures, using principal component analysis (PCA) as an extraction method. Exploratory factor analysis is an applied statistical technique used by researchers to determine relationships within a group of observed variables. The reliability coefficients for the factors were all strong, which shows that the measures were reliable for measuring the latent constructs including economic, socio-cultural, and environmental impacts, people’s quality of life, and support for tourism development. The results of the factor analysis validate the measurement scale and authenticate the psychometric properties of the tourism impacts, quality of life, and support for tourism scale items. The main contribution of this paper is the development and understanding of psychometrically reliable scale items with content and convergent validity that can be used in tourism studies.

Published: September 2019

The importance of ages 0-3 years of child life is considered the cornerstone of all dimensions of health for the rest of the child’s life, which is the period in which children grow rapidly and there are many changes in every aspect of development. The purpose of this study is to learn the factors that are relevant to the design of toys for kids aged 0-3 years from development, behavior of children, and the characteristics of children’s toys that are suitable for the ages, including safety. The researcher studied the guidelines for the design of kid’s toys that were appropriate to the age range. This research is a combination that uses both quantitative and qualitative methods. The results of the study after trying playing toy sets from the study of toy design factors in kids aged 0-3 from 230 samples by observing behavior from a total of 80 children, then synthesizing the data for use in the design process, and evaluating by the parents of 150 children, found that it was at a good level, with average value (x̄= 4.17, SD = 0.39). When comparing with playing toy samples from the Toy Industry Association of Thailand, it was found that there was a moderate level of satisfaction with the mean of 3.42 (x̄= 3.41, SD = 0.61), and statistically significant at 0.05 level in all aspects. In conclusion, toys for kids in the age range of 0-3 years resulting from the study of 3 factors in toy design: development and behavior, playing methods, and safety are important links between each other. Development and behavior of children are consistent with the play methods because they affect the physical development of children by age, and safety in the design of toys is able to prevent the danger that could occur to kids.

Nutrient Digestibility of Wheat in Rats and Chickens Depending on the Rye 1B/1R Translocation of Wheat Varieties
Authors: Homolková D. , Plachý V. , Dvořáček V. , Hučko B. , Mudřík Z.
Published: September 2019

A major part of wheat production is channelized towards animal feed. In the present experiment, we first aimed to determine the relationship of the crude protein (CP) content and the individual fractions (albumin + globulin, gliadin, glutenin) of wheat varieties (with or without the rye translocation 1B/1R) with the digestibility, feed intake, feed conversion, and protein efficiency ratio (PER) of the feed in ROSS 308 chicken broilers. Secondly, we determined the CP content, biological value, net protein utilization, and effect of various fibre components of the same wheat lines in Wistar rats. Seven out of sixteen wheat varieties studied herein included the 1B/1R translocation. Nutritional values were evaluated by the Weende analysis using the Kjeldahl and the Henneberg–Stohmann methods. Moreover, acid detergent fibre and neutral detergent fibre contents, CP digestibility and PER were determined. In broiler chickens, no statistically significant differences were found. In rats, however, the presence of 1B/1R significantly increased the CP content, affecting the nutritional value. This should be considered prior to the indiscriminate use of otherwise undesirable wheat varieties as animal feed.
Detection of Animal Occurrence Using an Unmanned System
Authors: Lešetický J. , Matějka P. , Olmr M.
Published: September 2019

In recent decades, there has been an increase in the work speed and breadth of agricultural technology used to mow grasses. This modernization has resulted in a decline in wildlife. There are several conventional ways to prevent these losses. The most well-known and simplest technique is to search for wild animals using dogs and a phalanx. The dogs are trained to systematically search the area and drive the animals out. Efficiency is increased when visiting a site regularly, thus disturbing the animals, which are then consequently less likely to fawn. The effectiveness of the swarm line depends on the number of participants involved. The recommended spacing is set at 1–3 m. An effective modern means seems to be the use of an unmanned system and thermal cameras. This article presents a proof of concept of a detection system that is capable of detecting the object searched for in grassy vegetation with more than 96% success, regardless of the flight level. The study contributes to automated detection based on the basic principles of threshold.
A Sense of Belonging
Authors: Hadley Wanda
Published: September 2019

First-year students that identify as having a learning disability are an at-risk subgroup of students self-identifying on college campuses. Many of these students choose not to disclose their learning disability upon admissions to the university because of their concern about being accepted in the university culture. This research is from a two year study of the experiences of a group of first-year students with learning disabilities transitioning to a private, selective, coeducational, 4-year University in the Midwest. Qualitative data of focus group interviews and semi-structured individual interviews present the findings of the study. Chickering (1969) and Chickering and Reisser’s (1993) stages of student development theory are presented through Hadley’s (2009) interpretation of their experiences.

Authors: Vianden Jörg , Berry Mitch , Svoboda Tori
Published: September 2019

Most college orientation programs include sessions on diversity-related topics (NODA, 2014). Yet, bias-motivated behavior continues to affect post-secondary institutions. Heterosexual White college men are often responsible for this behavior and also disengage from campus diversity efforts more than any other student group. The Straight White College Men Project, a multi-institutional qualitative research study with 92 participants, explored what attracts or repels students from campus diversity efforts. Findings directly inform the ways orientation professionals can challenge heterosexual White college men to engage in diversity efforts during and after orientation programs. Recommendations for orientation professionals are presented.

Authors: Mantovani José Ricardo , Lima José Antônio , Garcia Ciro Pozzi , Rezende Tiago Teruel
Published: September 2019

In soil sampling, the collection site and the tool used may induce errors that can compromise the results of the chemical analysis and, consequently, the definition of corrective and fertilizer doses. The objective in this study was to evaluate soil sampling sites and tools in a coffee growing area. The experiment was carried out in a field in the municipality of Alfenas-MG, in a 35-year coffee field. A randomized block design was used in a 3 x 5 factorial scheme and 4 replications, totaling 60 experimental units. The treatments consisted of 3 sampling sites: in the fertilizer strip (located in the projection of the plant canopy); between rows; and in the total area, with 1/3 of the samples collected under the canopy and close to the plant stem, 1/3 in the canopy projection and 1/3 collected between rows; and 5 sampling tools: Dutch auger; screw auger; probe; hoe and drill. Soil samples were collected at a depth of 0 to 0.2 m, and each composite sample was obtained by assembling and mixing 20 single samples. At each sampling point, an area of 2m2 was delimited, in which simple samples were collected in all the evaluated places and with all the tools used. The following parameters were determined in the soil samples: pH in CaCl2; potential acidity (H+Al); organic matter; P, extracted by Mehlich; K+, Ca2+, Mg2+ and base saturation. In a coffee-growing area, he fertilizer strip (canopy projection) has topsoil with higher acidity and lower contents of organic matter and nutrients P, K+, Ca2+ and Mg2+ than between rows. The tools used for soil sampling do not influence the results of soil chemical analysis in the coffee-growing area.

O presente artigo trata dos impactos do racismo na subjetividade dos indivíduos negros, a partir das relações sociais. Para tanto, tomou-se o racismo como estruturante das relações sociais, a partir da formação social brasileira e da dinâmica que o reproduz, ao longo da história. Além disso, apreendeu-se a subjetividade em níveis de abstração, buscando determiná-la socialmente através do trabalho como fundamento da sociabilidade humana, e com a discussão da personalidade de Lucien Sève. O campo empírico investigado foram os relatos da comunidade virtual do Facebook Senti na Pele. A pesquisa revelou que o racismo impacta subjetivamente os indivíduos negros, mobilizando resistência, silenciamento, reprodução, sofrimento e libertação, conforme os conflitos cotidianos e os enfrentamentos mobilizados por cada indivíduo.

Book Review: South Pacific Property Law
Authors: Angelo A H
Published: September 2019

This article is a book review of Sue Farran and Don Paterson South Pacific Property Law (Cavendish Publishing, London, 2004) (300 + xli pages) NZ$95. The book is part of a series of books which has been produced by the staff of the Law School of the University of South Pacific. Property law is diverse and continually changing, and there is a paucity of accessible information about the property law in the South Pacific. As the subject matter has broad coverage, and because of the difficulty of access to the law in most Pacific jurisdictions, Angelo notes that the authors will not have specific knowledge of all the laws in the field. However, Angelo ultimately concludes that the book is a treasury of property law material and a full text which will be of value as a point of reference and starting point for research.
Book Review: Public International Law: An Australian Perspective
Authors: MacDonald Angela
Published: September 2019

This article is a book review of Sam Blay, Ryszard Piotrowicz and Martin Tsamenyi (eds) Public International Law: An Australian Perspective, (2 ed, Oxford University Press, Melbourne, 2005) (424 + xl pages) NZ$95. The book explains and illuminates the complexities of international law in the contemporary world from an Australian perspective. MacDonald praises the authors for acknowledging the geopolitical context in which conventions were agreed, and in which contemporary decisions are made by governments. Given the broad interest in international law and actions taken in its name, and given the misreporting and misuse of legal arguments in modern political discourse and public commentary, MacDonald recommends the book to students of all disciplines, journalists, commentators and politicians alike.
Book Review: The Constitution of Independence
Authors: Morris Caroline
Published: September 2019

This article is a book review of Peter C Oliver The Constitution of Independence: The Development of Constitutional Theory in Australia, Canada, and New Zealand (Oxford University Press, Oxford, 2005) (367 + xx pages). The book is a contribution to the area of domestic constitutional law of the Commonwealth. Oliver addresses the question: are the former colonies of Britain ever truly independent, or is that independence illusory? He also asks how such colonies seek to understand and explain their constitutional history. Morris argues that the book had a great deal of potential but has been left unrealised. As a legal historiography, the book does not always satisfactorily explain how people involved in creating that legal history (or in analysing it since) understand it. As an exercise in constitutional theory, the book merely suggests that there is nothing much to choose between theories as a matter of logic. The book also suffers from very dense prose and a number of distracting metaphors for the process of constitutional independence. Morris ultimately concludes that the book fails to provide useful insight into New Zealand's constitutional theory.
CCAMLR Initiatives to Counter Flag State Non-Enforcement in Southern Ocean Fisheries
Authors: Baird Rachel
Published: September 2019

Not all states that have vessels registered under their flag take responsibility for the actions of those vessels and their crews. When enforcement is not carried out by flag states, illegal, unreported and unregulated (IUU) fishing can proliferate and have a serious impact on fish stocks in areas such as the seas around Antarctica. In this article, Rachel Baird evaluates the measures taken by the Commission on the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR) to address the issue of IUU fishing. Port state controls, catch documentation schemes, vessel lists and other options are discussed. She concludes that CCAMLR provides some encouraging examples as to how the global problem of IUU fishing may be addressed.
Book Review: Principles of Contemporary Corporate Governance
Authors: Brown David
Published: September 2019

This article is a book review of Jean Jacques du Plessis, James McConvill and Mirko Bagaric Principles of Contemporary Corporate Governance (Cambridge University Press, Melbourne, 2005) (395 + xxii pages). Broader theoretical and policy approaches were being taken in relation to corporate governance regulation. This meant that there was a growing need for a framework of principles within which students and scholars can approach the subject, and policymakers and interested parties can operate. The authors of the book aim to extract and evaluate such core principles. Brown argues that the title of the book both understates and overstates what it does. The book does contain principles of corporate governance, but Brown doubts whether the subject matter was demystified and fails to explore certain hot topic issues. However, the book also discusses regulation and practice of corporate governance and is imbued throughout with the authors' views as to the scope and future of corporate governance regulation. Brown ultimately concludes that the book is a welcome and timely resource in terms of coverage and detail.

Elaboración de mayonesa nutracéutica a base de inulina y estudio reológico
Authors: Correa Silvana , Bonilla Pablo
Published: September 2019

La mayonesa es un alimento que posee gran cantidad de ácidos grasos esenciales y fosfolípidos por lo que es una gran fuente de nutrientes, pero tiene el inconveniente de que es uno de los causantes de la ganancia de peso corporal.

Esta investigación se enfocó en modificar la formulación de la mayonesa tradicional por una mayonesa nutracéutica a base de inulina (prebiótico) y analizar su comportamiento reológico, sin cambiar sus propiedades organolépticas característica de la mayonesa tradicional.

Al realizar el respectivo análisis reológico, fisicoquímico y sensorial, en la mayonesa nutracéutica, se observó que la estabilidad no se ve afectada por problemas de rancidez gracias a la baja concentración de aceite que presenta. El comportamiento reológico de la mayonesa es plástico en un inicio y plástico-tixotrópico al final del estudio de estabilidad. El tiempo de vida útil, según su comportamiento reológico, es de 3 meses aproximadamente. La mayonesa nutracéutica comparada con la mayonesa comercial cuenta con 40% menos de calorías, con un 45% menos de grasa, el colesterol es mayor en un 8% y las proteínas son mayores en un 20%, además, cuenta con beneficios prebióticos al ser la inulina su materia prima
Presencia de metales pesados y semimetales en musgo en torno a la Estación Antártica Ecuatoriana Pedro Vicente Maldonado
Authors: Sarmiento Deisy , Flores Ronny
Published: September 2019

Durante la XV expedición ecuatoriana a la Antártida, desarrollada por el Instituto Antártico Ecuatoriano en los meses de febrero y marzo de 2011, se recolectaron muestras de musgo Saniona Uncinata en el área cercana a la Estación Pedro Vicente Maldonado, ubicada en la Isla Greenwich, para conocer la posible afectación que tiene la actividad humana en la región. El musgo fue utilizado como biomonitor de la contaminación por metales pesados y semimetales. Se establecieron cinco puntos de muestreo que corresponden a áreas de influencia directa e indirecta de la Estación. Los elementos se cuantificaron por espectroscopia de absorción atómica y se determinó que el arsénico, cromo, plomo y cadmio se encuentran en mayor concentración en el musgo recogido en el área cercana al Módulo de los Generadores Eléctricos de la estación, que en el musgo recolectado de los otros sitios más distantes. Las actividades realizadas en el Módulo de los Generadores, como quema de combustibles fósiles, uso de pinturas anticorrosivas, procesos de soldadura, etc., pueden ser los causantes del incremento de metales en el sitio.

HISTORISITAS DAN NORMATIVITAS HUBUNGAN ANTARA AGAMA
Authors: Ismail Ismail
Published: September 2019

Abstrak: Historisitas dan Normativitas Hubungan Antara Agama. Ada pendapat yang mengatakan bahwa semua agama itu sama. Meskipun pendapat itu dilontarkan oleh sebagian kecil pendapat masyarakat yang ada di sekitar kita. Dikatakan sama, karena tujuan-tujuan agama itu sama yaitu mendorong manusia untuk melakukan perbuatan baik serta menghindari perbuatan yang jahat, serta selalu membangun hubungan dengan Tuhan Yang Maha Kuasa. Hanya saja cara yang digunakan oleh tiap-tiap agama dalam mendekati Tuhan berbeda-beda. Misalnya, umat Islam pada hari Jum’at pergi ke Masjid, orang Kristen pada hari Ahad pergi ke Gereja, orang Yahudi ke Sinagog, sedangkan orang Hindu atau Budha memuja disuatu Candi atau di tempat yang sunyi untuk melakukan meditasi.

Published: September 2019

Se evaluó la actitud del productor agrícola de la zona centro de Sinaloa (México) ante la transferencia de tecnología, para generar estrategias que permitan facilitar la innovación tecnológica en la agricultura. Se empleó un cuestionario a los productores, quienes fueron seleccionados mediante el método muestreo por lotes del control de calidad (LQAS), conformándose cinco lotes, aplicando 19 cuestionarios en cada uno. Se encontró que la mayoría de los productores utiliza la nueva tecnología una vez aplicada por otros productores que tuvieron resultados positivos, recurren principalmente al proveedor para resolver un problema técnico, al agricultor no le significan las cosas que no lo afectan en lo inmediato, pero cuando considera que sus intereses son afectados de manera directa e inmediata, su actitud es diferente. No le importan las reuniones sobre transferencia de tecnología porque no conoce la utilidad de estas, la conducta del agricultor es influida por la opinión de los familiares y los proveedores, la principal fuente de información sobre tecnología agrícola es el proveedor de insumos, aunque también se informan por medio del amigo o familiar; así como de demostraciones sobre novedades tecnológicas y exposiciones agropecuarias.

Published: September 2019

La inducción de brotes in vitro es una estrategia de la micropropagación vegetal utilizada para incrementar la producción de orquídeas, en comparación con el cultivo tradicional que requiere un amplio periodo de tiempo para obtener una población sustancial para comercialización. El objetivo de este estudio fue inducir la formación de brotes in vitro a partir de las yemas florales de la orquídea Phalaenopsis spp., mediante una ruta de organogénesis. Se evaluaron cuatro formulaciones de sales minerales (MS al 100%, MS al 50%, Knudson y Fertilizante NPK 18-9-18/15-30-15) y cuatro variedades de Phalaenopsis spp. para determinar la viabilidad de los explantes. Se evaluaron dos reguladores de crecimiento (6-bencilaminopurina BAP 20.2 µM solo y combinado con ácido naftalenacético ANA 5.37 µM), para determinar la inducción de brotes. Los resultados indican que la oxidación en los explantes depende de las sales minerales de los medios de cultivo, así como de la variedad de orquídea; la inducción de brotes depende del regulador de crecimiento empleado. Los reguladores BAP/ANA produjeron 2.4 brotes por yema contra 2 en BAP. El medio MS 50% resultó ser la mejor opción para mantener la viabilidad de las yemas florales.

Ikan di desa Gawerejo Kecamatan Karangbinagun Kabupaten Lamongan tidak hanya diperoleh melalui bujukan di tambak, melainkan dapat juga diperoleh dari kolam ikan yang sebagian besar merupakan bekas lahan pertanian. Menurut warga di desa Gawerejo, bertani tidak diwariskan oleh orang tua mereka terlebih dahulu kepada generasi muda, sehingga muncul inovasi baru yaitumenjadikan lahan yang ada sebagai kolam ikan. Jadi saat ini sebagian besar desa yang semula ditanami padi sekarang menjadi kolam ikan. Hasil ikan yang diperoleh dari kolam tersebut biasanya dijual langsung ke agen yang datang ke desa. Padahal sebagian ikan tersebut dapat diproses terlebih dahulu menjadi makanan ikan yang bernilai tinggi. Salah satu alternatif untuk meningkatkan ekonomi dan kesehatan masyarakat secara umum adalah melalui program pengolahan ikan menjadi makanan yang bervariasi dan produktif. Pengolahan ini dilakukan menggunakan ikan patin yang merupakan hasil perikanan di desa Gawerejo. Kata Kunci: Pengolahan ikan;ikan patin;makanan; variatif; produktif.

Socioeconomic Status and Academic Outcomes in Developing Countries: A Meta-Analysis
Authors: Kim Sung won , Cho Hyunsun , Kim Lois Y.
Published: September 2019

Despite the multiple meta-analyses documenting the association between socioeconomic status (SES) and achievement, none have examined this question outside of English-speaking industrialized countries. This study is the first meta-analytic effort, to the best of our knowledge, to focus on developing countries. Based on 49 empirical studies representing 38 countries, and a sample of 2,828,216 school-age students (grades K–12) published between 1990 and 2017, we found an overall weak relation between SES and academic outcomes. Results for attainment outcomes were stronger than achievement outcomes, and the effect size was stronger in more economically developed countries. The SES-academic outcome relation was further moderated by grade level and gender. There were no differences in the strength of the relation by specific SES measures of income/consumption, education, and wealth/home resources. Our results provide evidence that educational inequalities are wider in higher income countries, creating a serious challenge for developing countries as they expand school access.
