Authors: Sulit Gessa Mae , Beleganio Aiera , Candilado Honey Grace , Canono Jessa Lyn , Bonganciso Ruel
Published: March 2024

English has profoundly influenced the Philippine language through the assimilation of source language words into the recipient language. This linguistic exchange, influenced by historical and cultural contacts, has resulted in a notable transformation of linguistic aspects in the Philippines. Over time, English has seamlessly been incorporated into the Filipino language, highlighting a notable process of linguistic exchange. This study specifically delved into the morphological and phonological adaptations of English loanwords in Filipino, examining nuances and shifts in linguistic structure and meaning during the borrowing process through purposive sampling. Qualitative research methods and content analysis were employed, focusing on loanwords extracted from Bob Ong’s novels as a linguistic corpus, delving into the process of incorporating English loanwords into the Filipino language, exploring how this integration instigates a transformation to align with the grammatical and linguistic structure of the target language, and revealing notable morphophonological adaptations and semantic shifts that occur during the borrowing process. Inflections of English lexemes, complemented with Filipino morphemes, were observed, along with modifications to phonological rules, phonotactic constraints, morphemes, and shifts in semantic meaning. The analysis revealed an overall change in the morphophonological structure of phrases and sentences within the corpus. This research underscores the impact of cultural and contextual factors on the adaptation of English loanwords into Filipino, emphasizing specific patterns or structures in the vocabulary borrowing process tailored to the target language. This study contributes valuable insights for linguistic researchers, educators, and language enthusiasts interested in tracing language development and evolution through borrowing and adaptation.

Authors: Hadiyansyah Dhuha , Bawarti Era , Ulfa Maria
Published: March 2024

Symbolism through coloring is commonly used in various social communications because color is significant for representing ideas, feelings, emotions, beliefs, and spirituality. Color gives character to objects and aboutness, including the color of lipstick on someone’s lips. This descriptive-qualitative study using in-depth interviews explored how female students at the Al-Azhar University of Indonesia (UAI) represented certain meanings through their choice of lipstick colors. This study was conducted objectively and avoided gender bias. The research found that even though they semiotically did not know the associative or connotative meaning of certain colors, the informants admitted to using lipstick for various reasons, namely, for the face to look bright and fresh, being more confident and prettier, showing their natural beauty, and displaying a cheerful impression. However, the analysis proved that after taking a closer look at the 10 lipstick color choices that have been reviewed, the subconscious message they want to convey is quite complex, ranging from optimism, cheerfulness, joy, modesty, warmth, wanting to be the center of attention, femininity, passion and love, and sensuality.

Authors: Cuenca-Calva Talia Soledad , Ramón-Rodríguez Bertha Lucia , Troya-Sánchez Miriam Eucevia
Published: March 2024

The limited vocabulary knowledge of eighth-grade students from a public institution in Loja inhibits the proper development of English skills. The present research aimed to increase vocabulary knowledge through the implementation of online games among eighth-grade students between 12 and 13 years old at a public institution in Loja, Ecuador. The investigation employed a mixed method following a practical action research model through five stages; initial reflection, planning, action, observation, and reflection, with the participation of 25 Ecuadorian eighth graders chosen by purposeful sampling. Pre- and post-tests, questionnaires, reflective journals, and peer observations collected both quantitative and qualitative data. The pretest and posttest measured students’ knowledge about their vocabulary, whereas the other instruments attempted to describe students’ perceptions regarding the use of online games to learn vocabulary. Quantitative information was analyzed through descriptive statistics and qualitative information through a thematic analysis. The results showed a difference of 3.07 points between the pretest and posttest, which denoted a significant increase in the knowledge of various aspects of vocabulary such as form, meaning, and use. Moreover, eighth graders perceived the online games; Educandy, Genially, Vocabulary Spelling City, Wordwall, and especially Blooket, as innovative and fun educational resources that increased their motivation and active participation while acquiring new vocabulary. Hence, it was concluded that online games were effective in improving vocabulary because they created a dynamic educational environment. This study contributes to the educational field by highlighting new digital tools to improve English language proficiency.
Teaching with Styles: A Predictive Factor for Improved Students’ Learning Outcomes in Classrooms
Authors: Jimola Folasade            Esther
Published: March 2024

The manner in which a teacher teaches and relates with students is influenced and controlled by some teacher-related factors such as the style of teaching. This study examines (i) the teaching styles adopted by Literature-in-English teachers, (ii) Literature-in-English students’ perception of and preference for teachers’ teaching styles, and (iii) whether teachers’ teaching styles predict students’ achievement and attitude toward Literature-in-English. The study was a descriptive research of the survey type that employed four research instruments. The study consisted of 759 respondents (127 Literature-in-English teachers and 632 public senior secondary school II Literature-in-English students) in Ekiti State, Nigeria. The data collected for this study were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics. It was evident in the research that Literature-in-English teachers employed delegator, facilitator, and role model teaching styles while expert and formal authority styles were the least. The findings revealed that teacher teaching style is a good a predictor of students’ achievement and attitude toward Literature-in-English. Based on these findings, profound pedagogical implications and relevant recommendations were made for concerned education stakeholders.

Published: March 2024

This is a quantitative descriptive study that determines the implementation level and challenges of the distribution and retrieval of modules at Don Gregorio C. Yumul Sr. Elementary School in terms of safety measures, organizing the learning modules, and the process of implementing modular distance learning in the academic year 2022. A survey questionnaire was used to determine the different experiences in the distribution and retrieval of modules. This study was conducted in Don Gregorio C. Yumul Sr. Elementary School with one principal and fourteen teachers, for a total of fifteen teachers from October to March of school year 2021-2022 respectively.  In terms of safety measures and organizing the learning modules it has a positive result feedback from the respondents as they were responsible when it comes to their health and the people around them. The implementation level in terms of the process of implementing modular distance learning shows that every teacher ensures that the learners understand the module given to them and that they make sure to tack and monitor every learner's accomplishment despite the learning mode, thus, the hypothesis is rejected and interpreted as significant. It is recommended that the teacher should always remind or give clear instructions to the parents on the activities that the learners should do, and by retrieving the modules on time, the teacher must have active communication with the parents/guardians and also create other strategies or plans for how they can monitor the process of implementing the modular learning.

Background: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID19) is a novel pandemic disease caused by the β-coronavirus SARS-CoV-2. This disease affects primarily the respiratory organs, but the vascular system may also be compromised. COVID19 may lead to either coagulopathies or hemorrhagic disorders involving the central nervous system. Risk factors for a fatal outcome have been suggested but not completely elucidated. Objectives: This systematic review protocol aims to identify clinical, imaging and laboratory variables associated with intra-hospital mortality in patients with COVID19 and cerebrovascular disease. Materials and Methods: Studies will be retrieved from Web of Science, MEDLINE, Scopus, EBSCOhost, Ovid, Rayyan’s COVID-19 Open Research Dataset, and Google Scholar. Inclusion criteria will be observational studies or clinical trials describing patients with both COVID19 and cerebrovascular disease. Exclusion criteria will be studies whose patients remained hospitalized with no defined outcome (intrahospital mortality or discharge), studies written in languages different than English, published before 2019 or whose full-texts could not be retrieved. All demographic, laboratory and imaging variables will be extracted. Data synthesis will be presented in graphs, figures, and summary of findings tables. A global mortality rate will be calculated. A narrative synthesis will be included. A meta-analysis will be performed. For mortality rate and statistical synthesis, only studies reporting the main outcome (intra-hospital mortality or discharge) will be considered. Quality of the evidence will be assessed with the JBI Critical Appraisal tools. This protocol received no funding and isregistered in PROSPERO.

An unusual diffuse CD34 staining in an olfactory groove cellular schwannoma: Case report
Authors: Theologou Marios , Perez Ruiz Jorge D. , Varoutis Panagiotis , Flaris Nicolaos , `Skoulios Nikolaos
Published: March 2024

Background: Intracranial schwannomas are benign lesions, expected to exhibit characteristic ultrastructural features and immunophenotypic profile, typically being S-100, SOX10 and collagen-IV positive, while other markers, including CD34, are not usually expressed and are employed in the diagnostic elimination process.
Case presentation: A 51-year-old female presented with a rapidly deteriorating neurological status. MRI showed a heterogeneous enhancing neoplasm of the anterior fossa. Preoperative differential diagnosis predilected an esthesioneuroblastoma. A bifrontal craniotomy with total excision of the lesion was performed. Dural infiltration was present. There was no association with the olfactory system. Microscopic examination revealed a uniform population of spindled to slightly epithelioid cellular proliferation with no significant atypia, low mitotic activity, and foci of necrosis. Upon immunohistochemical investigation the tumor was consistent with cellular schwannoma. Diffuse positivity for CD34 was an unusual finding.
Discussion: Cellular schwannoma should be considered in the presence of an anterior fossa tumefaction. Olfactory nerve is not directly associated with these lesions. Various theories have been proposed, with the meningeal trigeminal branches’ origin being the most probable. The characteristic ultrastructural Antoni formations may be scarce or even absent in cellular schwannomas creating potential diagnostic difficulties. Unusual diffuse CD34 positivity should not be employed for excluding the diagnosis.
Closed-form estimates of ex-Gaussian response time models in two-digit number comparison
Authors: Zapata Bella , Faulkenberry Thomas J.
Published: April 2024

In the context of two-digit number comparison, the unit-decade compatibility effect (UDCE) refers to a slowdown that occurs during trials that are unit-decade incompatible – that is, trials where the order relationship of the tens digits is reversed from that of the ones digits. This slowdown demonstrates an inability to ignore the irrelevant ones digits when comparing two-digit numbers. The purpose of this thesis was to investigate the potential cognitive mechanisms behind the UDCE by using ex-Gaussian modeling. The ex-Gaussian model decomposes a distribution of observed response times into two components: a normal component with mean μ and an exponential component with mean τ. If the effect appears in the tail component τ, this implies that the UDCE involves analytic processes (e.g., thinking, decision making). If the effect appears in the normal component μ, this implies that the UDCE involves nonanalytic processes (e.g., stimulus driven automatic processes). We used a method of moments technique to develop closed-form equations for estimating μ and τ directly from the summary statistics of observed response times. Then, we applied these closed-form equations to an existing dataset. Subsequent Bayesian hypothesis testing demonstrates that the UDCE occurs in the μ parameter, but not in the τ parameter. Therefore, the UDCE reflects only nonanalytic processing.
Task-Specific Relationships Between Error-Related ERPs and Behavior: Flanker, Stroop, and Go/Nogo Tasks
Authors: Park Bohyun , Holbrook Amanda , Lutz Miranda Christine , Baldwin Scott , Larson Michael J. , Clayson Peter E
Published: April 2024

Performance monitoring has been widely studied during different forced-choice response tasks. Participants typically show longer response times (RTs) and increased accuracy following errors, but there are inconsistencies regarding the connection between error-related event-related brain potentials (ERPs) and behavior, such as RT and accuracy. The specific task in any given study could contribute to these inconsistencies, as different tasks may require distinct cognitive processes that impact ERP-behavior relationships. The present study sought to determine whether task moderates ERP-behavior relationships and whether these relationships are robustly observed when tasks and stimuli are treated as random effects. ERPs and behavioral indices (RTs, accuracy) recorded during flanker, Stroop, and Go/Nogo tasks from 180 people demonstrated a task-specific effect on ERP-behavior relationships, such that larger previous-trial error-related negativity (ERN) predicted longer RTs and greater likelihood of a correct response on subsequent trials during flanker and Stroop tasks but not during Go/Nogo task. Additionally, larger previous-trial error positivity (Pe) predicted faster RTs and smaller variances of RTs on subsequent trials for Stroop and Go/Nogo tasks but not for flanker task. When tasks and stimuli were treated as random effects, ERP-behavior relationships were not observed. These findings support the need to consider the task used for recording performance monitoring measures when interpreting results across studies.
Is working memory domain-general or domain-specific? Implications for theory and practice
Authors: Nozari Nazbanou , Martin Randi
Published: April 2024

Given the widely accepted role of working memory (WM) in human cognition across tasks and domains, a central question has been, Is WM domain general? However, the term “domain-general” has been used in different, and sometimes misleading, ways. By reviewing recent evidence and biologically plausible models of WM, we show that the level of domain-generality varies substantially between three facets of WM: in terms of principles of processing, WM is largely domain-general. In terms of neural correlates, it contains both domain-general and domain-specific elements. Finally, in terms of application, it is mostly domain-specific. This variance encourages a focus shift towards uncovering domain-general principles and away from domain-general approaches to WM training, favoring newer perspectives, such as training-as-skill-learning, for the latter.
The Polarizing Content Warning: How the Media Can Reduce Affective Polarization
Authors: Kubin Emily , von Sikorski Christian
Published: April 2024

Past research suggests journalists can (unintentionally) exacerbate affective polarization when reporting on growing levels of polarization in society. However, is there a way for journalists to report on the realities of growing political polarization without dividing people further? In our research with 5 preregistered experimental studies (N=3,414) we develop the polarizing content warning which, based on inoculation theory, warns readers that scientific research suggests reading news content about political polarization may drive further affective polarization. Results indicate that the polarizing content warning can be used both with online news articles and on social media sites and is able to indirectly reduce affective polarization of readers. Additionally, the polarizing content warning is beneficial both when presented alongside news content and beforehand, and reduces readers’ perceptions of societal polarization, in turn reducing affective polarization. This warning allows journalists to report on societal polarization without further dividing people.
Measuring Norms: Eliciting normative expectations with coordination games allowing for neutral report
Authors: Bogliacino Francesco , Aycinena Diego , Kimbrough Erik
Published: April 2024

We examine the use of a five-item response scale in a widely used norm-elicitation procedure based on coordination games. The method introduced by Krupka and Weber (2013) measures the degrees of social (in)appropriateness using a four-category scale. The even-numbered scale may limit the ability to evaluate asymmetries in deviations from the prescribed action and excludes ratings that indicate no normative valence. To address these limitations, we conduct a norm elicitation experiment using dictator games and vignettes, testing a scale that allows subjects to report neutral normative valence: ``neither socially appropriate nor inappropriate''. While a central neutral category may risk constituting a focal point, biasing responses, our findings reveal no evidence of such distortions and minimal changes in distribution shapes. The neutral category is robust to including incentivized uncertainty responses (``I don't know''), confirming that it captures genuine neutrality. In addition, including the neutral category slightly reduces bias and noise in predictions of behavior in the dictator game. The method remains robust to false positives (detecting norms where they do not exist) and to competing focal points. Overall, incorporating a neutral category improves the method's precision and interpretability, allowing a more nuanced understanding of normative expectations without significant drawbacks.

Tonsillectomy is the complete removal of a tonsil from its bed and is one of the most common procedures in Otorhinolaryngology. The intensity of post-operative pain is severe enough to cause dysphagia which subsequently leads to infection of the fossa and other complications. Several studies on pain management have been conducted but not a single standard protocol currently exist. This study aims to evaluate the intensity of post tonsillectomy pain and to assess the efficacy of infiltration of Bupivacaine on the tonsillar fossa following tonsillectomy. A comparative study was conducted at Kathmandu Medical College, ENT-HNS department for a period of 18 months (January 2018 to June 2019). Ninety three patients were included. 2.5 ml of 0.5% Bupivacaine was infiltrated in right tonsillar fossa after tonsillectomy in all patients. The lateralization and intensity of pain at various post-operative period was assessed using visual analogue scale. The requirement of extra analgesics at various post-operative period was recorded. The pain score on the Bupivacaine side on the first and second post-operative day was decreased as compared to the other side. The pain score on the fourth hour and third post-operative day on Bupivacaine side was more than that of the other side. Infiltration of Bupivacaine over the tonsillar fossa has provided a good result with a significant reduction of pain in first post-operative day and in early post-operative period. However, other multi-centered and double blinded study is requires to provide better results.

The development of technology requires humans to fulfill their daily needs to be more complex. Therefore, Kementrian Republik Indonesia provides Trans Metro Deli Transportation services with the Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) implementation program which has a mission to provide the best service which includes aspects of security, accuracy, regularity, convenience, speed, comfort and satisfaction for its users. The purpose of this study was to find out how the services provided were based on passenger ratings. This research was conducted by distributing questionnaires to 100 respondents. The questionnaire contains the five dimensions of Service Quality (tangible, reliability, responsiveness, empathy and assurance) using a Likert Scale technique. The method used to get the value of the gap between performance and expectations is gap analysis and to measure the level of passenger satisfaction is the analysis of the Customer Satisfaction Index (CSI). From the calculation results of the gap analysis, it shows that the service quality of the Trans Metro Deli Bus is all negative indicator variables starting from -0.10 on the B1 attribute to -0.77 on the A5 attribute, which means that all services provided to passengers are still below passenger expectations. However, based on the satisfaction index, the CSI value is in the range of 80% - 84%, namely 82.61%, which means that the overall quality of performance is still in the satisfied criteria. The conclusion of this study is that the company must continue to improve the quality of service in order to increase the level of passenger satisfaction.

Published: March 2024

Saat merencanakan pembangunan sebuah gedung pertokoan, maupun apartemen, diperlukan lahan parkir yang terbilang cukup luas. Hal ini yang menjadi permasalahan tersendiri bagi pengembang (developer) karena tidak memungkinkan lagi membangun sebuah konstruksi secara horizontal karena keterbatasan lahan dan harga lahan yang semakin tinggi setiap waktunya. Oleh karena itu pembangunan basement merupakan bagian yang penting dari sebuah gedung bertingkat yang memanfaatkan luasan areal tanah yang ada sebagai area lahan parkir seperti pada pembangunan Proyek Rumah Sakit Regina Maris Medan. Pada pembangunan diawali dengan pekerjaan penggalian tanah yang merupakan awal dari pembangunan gedung bertingkat dengan berbagai ketinggian. Kendala yang timbul pada saat pengerjaan galian basement adalah faktor runtuhnya dinding tanah vertikal. Untuk menghindari keruntuhan pada saat penggalian basement, maka sebelum dilakukan penggalian tanah dibuat pengaman galian dengan memasang dinding penahan tanah. Pengamanan galian proyek Rumah Sakit Regina Maris Medan berupa retaning wall yang terdiri dari susunan batang spun pile yang diperkuat dengan strutting. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui aman atau tidaknya kondisi tanah pada saat penggalian untuk pembangunan basement. Metode dalam perhitungan stabililtas dinding penahan tanah menggunakan metode Rankine serta penggunaan alat bantu sofware Plaxis. Hasil dari perhitungan stabilitas terhadap guling menggunakan metode rankine memiliki nilai faktor keamanan 2.54 1,50 untuk stabilitas terhadap guling dan juga stabilitas terhadap geser memliki nilai faktor aman (SF) 2,4472.0.  Sedangkan hasil analisis menggunakan sofware plaxis deformasi yang aman pada proses instalisasi retaining wall spun pile serta proses penggalian 1 dengan nilai faktor keamanannya adalah 1.81 dan pada penggalian ke 2 diperoleh nilai faktor keamanan (SF) 1.82 dan yang terakhir adalah penggalian 3 dengan nilai keamananya adalah 2.95. Berdasarkan data hasil perhitungan diatas maka disimpulkan bahwa dinding penahan tanah pada metode rankine dan software plaxis 8.6 nilai kapasitas yang didapat merupakan nilai yang tinggi serta aman terhadap keruntuhan.

Prediction is the process of systematically estimating the most likely event to occur in the future based on past and current information, so that errors (the difference between what happened and what is expected) are minimized. Dharmawangsa High School has the goal of adding/improving school facilities and infrastructure. Therefore, a solution must be found to overcome this problem, one of which is predicting the number of new Dharmawangsa High School students so that the Dharmawangsa High School can predict the addition and reduction of school facilities and infrastructure. Because of this, researchers approached the solution by implementing the Single Exponential Smooth method and designing a system that is useful for predicting the number of new students at Dharmawangsa High School. From the research results, the number of new students in 2024 will be 299 science students and 101 social studies students. The smallest mean squared error (MSE) for the number of new science students was obtained with α=0.3, namely 1723,673 and the smallest MSE for the number of new social studies students with α=0.9, namely 1293,873. The smallest Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE) for the number of new science students was obtained with α=0.6, namely 10.29% with a good description of the method used. Meanwhile, the smallest MAPE on the number of new IPS students was obtained with α=0.8, namely 26.64% with a description of the method used was bad. This study concludes that the Single Exponential Smooth Method can be used to predict the number of new students at Dharmawangsa High School so that the predicted value can be known in the following year. As well as researchers managed to build and design a system to predict the number of new students at Dharmawangsa High School.
