The study presents an innovative approach aimed at amplifying student engagement with the Selfmade Ninja labs, utilizing a reward-centric framework that prioritizes user efficiency. This approach involves the meticulous calculation of various CPU metrics, encompassing elements such as CPU usage, memory usage, download and upload statistics, process identifiers, as well as read and write statistics. These metrics collectively offer a comprehensive view of user interactions within the platform. The gathered data is thoughtfully curated and stored in a JSON file, facilitating efficient data management and analysis. To facilitate the realization of this approach, a sophisticated machine-learning model is deployed. This model serves the pivotal purpose of predicting user efficiency, a crucial factor in determining the efficacy of their engagement with the Selfmade Ninja labs. Building upon this predictive prowess, a system of credits is established, intricately tied to a leaderboard that reflects individual user performances. Through this dynamic reward distribution mechanism, users are incentivized to actively participate and continually enhance their proficiency, thereby fostering a vibrant learning ecosystem. The culmination of this endeavour is a finely tuned predictive model that seamlessly allocates rewards to users based on their demonstrated engagement and proficiency. This tailored approach not only magnifies user motivation but also significantly augments the overall educational impact of the Selfmade Ninja platform. The integration of insights derived from both exploratory data analysis (EDA) and the predictive model ensures a holistic understanding of user behaviors and preferences. Consequently, the proposed reward-based system is elevated to a new level of efficacy, nurturing a learning environment where students are empowered to engage more meaningfully with the Selfmade Ninja labs, fostering enhanced learning outcomes.
Nobility from George MacDonald to C.S. Lewis
Authors: McPherson Joyce
Published: July 2024

C.S. Lewis first discovered the works of George MacDonald when he read Phantastes, A Faerie Romance, a book he “unwittingly” picked up from a bookstall before a train journey (Surprised by Joy 219). He went on to read dozens of books by MacDonald and later wrote that “the quality which had enchanted me in his imaginative works turned out to be the quality of the real universe, the divine, magical, terrifying, and ecstatic reality in which we live” (George MacDonald preface). As Lewis’s career matured, he followed in the steps of MacDonald by writing on literature and faith and, ultimately, by writing fantasy. Lewis called MacDonald his master, and their shared concept of nobility makes a fascinating study of the themes that inspired both men. These themes include the value and costliness of nobility as well as the significance of belonging to a kingdom in order to become noble. The connections between their fiction and faith reveal an idea of goodness within reach of every person. As a result, MacDonald and Lewis created a particular type of fantasy that has endured into the twenty-first century.

Authors: Rosshiela Sheera S Imperial , Yango Antonio R
Published: July 2024

Academic procrastination is a common challenge. High school is a critical period where students are introduced to more complex and demanding academic tasks. The transition from middle school to high school may bring about increased academic pressure, and students may struggle to manage their time effectively (Belmonte, 2019). Cramming behavior, often a direct consequence of procrastination, is a phenomenon that has become ingrained in academic culture, their efficacy in promoting long-term retention and understanding in the long run (Chew, 2021). People have diverse learning styles, and understanding these styles can enhance the effectiveness of education and training. One popular framework categorizes learners into four models which include the VARK model (Visual, Auditory, Reading/Writing, Kinesthetic), which adds a dimension for those who prefer reading and writing as their primary mode of learning. The goal of this study was to explore academic procrastination, cramming behavior and learning style of Grade 7 students of Pacita Complex National High School , to probe the relationship between academic procrastination and cramming behavior, academic procrastination and learning style, cramming behavior and learning and examined the predictive ability of academic procrastination and cramming behavior, taken singly or in combination, of respondents’ learning style of Grade 7 students of Pacita Complex National High School. The findings revealed that the over-all weighted mean of 2.39 revealed that the respondents do not procrastinate in terms of academics. On the other hand, an over-all weighted mean of 2.47. Furthermore, the study revealed that the respondents have “less manifested” cramming behavior. In addition, the learning style of the students was Kinesthetic with a total score of 670. Moreover, academic procrastination was not significant to cramming behavior with a p-values .128, .133 and .296 respectively, as well as academic procrastination and learning style was also not significant to learning style with a p-values of .894, .222, .336 and .670 respectively. Also, cramming behavior was not significant to learning style with of .733, .322 and .053 It implied that these predictors were not highly contributors to students learning style. This study is believed to be a beneficial reference to educators, school administrators and students.

Authors: Cueva Francisco , Bustamante Kathy
Published: July 2024

Background There are millions of deaths attributable to low levels of quality and patient safety in healthcare. One of the first steps in the journey to high reliability is to establish a solid patient safety culture. This study sought to determine the level of patient safety culture in the personnel of a specialty Hospital in Ecuador. Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted with a descriptive phase comprising the presentation of results of the patient safety culture level in the staff, and an analytical phase to determine conditioning factors of this aspect. Results 344 hospital staff answers were included in the study. The most significant group of personnel who responded to the survey corresponded to medical staff (39.83%). An overall patient safety culture level of 63.86% was determined, with higher scores observed in leadership positions (73,55%) and among the medical staff (69,90%), followed by support positions (60,97%), Other staff positions (60,44%), and nursing (56,74%). The dimensions of patient safety culture identified as strengths were teamwork and hospital management support in patient safety, and as improvement areas figured response to error, and staffing and work pace. Significant differences were found between the results of the patient safety culture domains and: staff position, working time in the hospital, working time in the current area or unit, weekly working hours, and typical contact with patients during daily activities (p < 0.05). Conclusions The patient safety culture level in the Ecuadorian context was determined, as well as its strengths and improvement areas. In this study, the support of hospital management support in patient safety stands out as a strength. Additionally, aspects of the staff were found to be significantly associated with the results of the patient safety culture dimensions indicating potential areas of focus for efforts to improve patient safety culture.

Authors: Mrs. Smita S. Deoche  , Prof. Kishor G. Rodge  , Dr. R. H. Kale  , Dr. K. R. Biyani
Published: July 2024

This study focuses on the formulation development and evaluation of a polyherbal emulgel incorporating curcumin and coriander seed oil, aimed at enhancing anti-inflammatory activity. Preformulation studies were conducted to characterize the physical, chemical, and mechanical properties of the active substances, and to establish a robust basis for the formulation approach. Various parameters including solubility, melting point, partition coefficient, and drug-excipient interactions were assessed to ensure compatibility and efficacy. The emulgel was prepared through a systematic process involving the preparation of a gel base, oil phase, aqueous phase, and subsequent emulsification. The final product was evaluated for various properties such as physical appearance, homogeneity, pH, spreadability, extrudability, swelling index, viscosity, drug content, and in vitro drug diffusion. Stability studies were also conducted over three months to ensure the longevity and reliability of the formulation. Results indicated that the formulated emulgel exhibited desirable physical properties, optimal pH, high spreadability, good extrudability, and a significant swelling index. Viscosity measurements confirmed appropriate consistency, while drug content analysis ensured accurate dosing. In vitro drug release studies demonstrated sustained release profiles, fitting well with kinetic models. Additionally, in vivo anti-inflammatory activity was assessed using a carrageenan-induced paw edema model in rats, showing promising results with notable inhibition of inflammation. Overall, the polyherbal emulgel formulation developed in this study offers a promising alternative for anti-inflammatory therapy, combining the therapeutic benefits of curcumin and coriander seed oil in a stable and effective dosage form. Further studies are recommended to explore clinical efficacy and potential applications in broader therapeutic areas

Scalar Inferencing, Polarity and Cognitive Load
Authors: Marty Paul , Romoli Jacopo , Sudo Yasutada , van Tiel Bob , Breheny Richard
Published: July 2024

According to the Polarity Hypothesis, the presence or absence of a processing cost for Scalar Inferences (SIs) depends on their polarity. This hypothesis predicts, among other things, that the processing of lower-bounding SIs should not be affected by cognitive load the same way upper-bounding SIs are. To date, evidence in support of this prediction comes from the comparison between upper-bounding and lower-bounding SIs elicited by disparate scalar words. In this paper, we report on two dual-task experiments testing this prediction in a more controlled way by comparing upper-bounding and lower-bounding SIs arising from the same scalar words or scale-mates operating over the same dimension. Results show that, for these more minimal comparisons, lower-bounding SIs involve comparable cognitive demands as their upper-bounding counterparts. These findings challenge the idea that load effects are consistently modulated by SI polarity and suggest instead that these effects are relatively consistent across different types of SIs.

SCHOOL CONNECTEDNESS AND ACADEMIC BUOYANCY: INSIGHTS INTO FILIPINO COLLEGE STUDENTS’ EXPERIENCE OF ACADEMIC STRESS
Authors: Gail Conway
Published: July 2024

The primary purpose of this research was to look into college students’ academic stress as regressed from connectedness and academic buoyancy. Participants involved included 186 (male = 61, female = 125) undergraduates from a Philippine university. Hierarchical regression analysis revealed a significant inverse relationship between connectedness and academic stress in model 1 (β = -.277, p < .01). This relationship remained significant in model 2 (β = -.186, p < .01) when academic buoyancy and other demographic variables were added, indicating the value of connectedness in situations that could trigger stress among students. Likewise, academic buoyancy was revealed to be a significant predictor of academic stress (β = -.294, p < .001). Findings suggest the utilization of an endogenous resource and an exogenous resource to cope with stress. Implications of the findings on school outcomes such as learning and motivation, and counseling psychology are discussed.
PROCRASTINATION AND ANXIETY AMONG PSYCHOLOGY AND SOCIAL WORK STUDENTS IN A PUBLIC UNIVERSITY IN EAST MALAYSIA
Authors: Pang Chee Hong, Guan Teik Ee, & Muhamad Azlan Daud
Published: July 2024

Procrastination is prevalent and pernicious but not entirely understood. It has been seen as a universal phenomenon that hinders people’s ability to accomplish their goals. Procrastination can be defined as lack or absence of self regulated performance and the behavioural tendency to delay what is necessary to reach a goal. It appears to be a troubling phenomenon and yet human beings have been procrastinating for centuries. University students are the backbone of society.

Breast cancer is a frequent cancer that develops when normal cells in the breast transform into malignant cells. Breast cancer can arise from glandular tissue, muscular tissue, or fatty tissue in the breast. Many variables contribute to the risk of breast cancer, including genetics, environmental exposure, food, and lifestyle. Breast cancer should be detected early through breast self-examination, regular clinical evaluation, and mammography to identify any abnormal changes, In recent years, early detection of breast cancer in women has emerged as a beacon of hope and a pivotal point in the treatment of this dangerous disease, and its timely identification has become paramount. Modern advancements in technology, especially artificial intelligence algorithms, have played a vital role in developing systems that facilitate automated disease detection, diagnosis, rapid response, and a reduced risk of fatalities. This paper delves into a comparative study of various machine learning (ML) techniques, namely logistic regression (LR), support vector machines (SVM), linear SVM, Gaussian Naive Bayes (GNB), and artificial neural networks (ANNs). The evaluation metrics used in this study are accuracy and elapsed time. The results show that Gaussian Naive Bayes achieved the highest accuracy of 94.07% in just 0.005495 seconds, outperforming SVM (91.85%), linear SVM (90.19%), logistic regression (87.04%), and ANN (37.04%). These findings highlight the potential of Gaussian Naive Bayes in aiding the early detection of breast cancer, leading to more effective and timely interventions, ultimately improving patient outcomes.
