The wheat blast caused by the Magnaporthe oryzae Triticum pathotype has become a serious threat to wheat production in Pakistan and India after its severe outbreak in Bangladesh in 2016 and intermittent occurrence since then. Thus, planned systemic surveillance of wheat crops in two phases in 2018–2019 and 2019–2020 began to determine the status of wheat blasts in Punjab, Pakistan. In the first phase, a survey of 160 wheat fields in districts in Punjab ensued for typical blast symptoms. The surveillance‟s second phase occurred after the threshing of the wheat crop, with composite grain samples collected from all over Punjab, then analyzed in the lab. The surveillance results indicated that all the wheat fields were free from the typical blast symptoms. Similarly, none of the analyzed samples showed the presence of wheat blast pathogens. Therefore, the study validates that this dreadful disease (blast) does not exist in Punjab, Pakistan. Hence, the reason to remain calm needs dissemination among the farming community and the training of technical agriculture extension staff for vigilance in the future for monitoring this disease in different agro-ecological zones of Punjab.

Published: December 2022

Statement of the problem: Saliva contamination during sealant application
has negative consequences that affects long-term success including retention
and caries progression.
Objective: The effect of different protocols to minimize the effect of saliva
contamination on the microleakage of a resin based fissure sealant material
(3M Clinpro™ Sealant) was investigated.
Materials & Methods: Extracted human third molars (n=160) were used:
Group A. Etch-and-rinse adhesive (Prime & Bond One Select); Group B. Selfetching
adhesive (Clearfil SE Bond). These comprised eight paired subgroups
where enameloplasty was done (or not), saliva contamination occurred before
(or after) the polymerization of the bonding agent and the entire procedure was
repeated (or not) following saliva contamination before the sealant application.
Following thermocycling, the samples were immersed in basic fuchsin, sectioned,
and dye penetration was quantitatively assessed with ImageJ. The data were
statistically analyzed (α=0.05).
Results: Significantly less microleakage was observed in Group A
(P=0.000). Intergroup differences with respect to the effect of adhesive type,
enameloplasty, saliva contamination occurred after the polymerization of the
bonding agent and repeating the entire procedure following saliva contamination
were significant (p<0.05, each). Enameloplasty reduced microleakage in subgroups
of A and B (P=0.002 and P=0.014, respectively). Saliva contamination
after the polymerization of the bonding agent resulted in less microleakage in
subgroups of A and B (P=0.01 and P=0.002, respectively). Less microleakage
was observed in subgroups of A and B where the entire procedure was repeated
following saliva contamination (P=0.000, both).
Conclusions: The use of etch-and-rinse adhesive, enameloplasty, saliva
contamination occurring after the polymerization of the bonding agent and repeating
the entire procedure reduced microleakage of the fissure sealant applied
during saliva contamination.

Authors: TURAN Arzu
Published: December 2022

Tarihsel avangartlarla ortaya çıkan tiyatroda yazınsallıktan kopma ve teatralleşmeyi tesis etme görüşüyle 20. yüzyılın tiyatro uygulamacıları yeni arayışlar içine girer. Uygulamacı sorumluluğunu, yorumcu olmaktan öte yaratıcı olmak olarak kuran bu arayışlar, tiyatronun asal ilkelerinden başlayarak bir yeniden inşa etme sürecine dönüşür. Yeniden inşa etmenin odağı tiyatroda sözün yazınsal bağlamından edilerek teatral uzamda tesis edilmesi olurken, durağı ise ilk biçimlere ve bütünselliğe geri dönüş ile kurulur. Bu yönelişin alt metinlerinden biri diğer birçok disiplinde olduğu gibi hem dramatik metin hem de uygulama açısından tiyatro sanatında da Mihail Bahtin’in Rabelais ve Dünyası’dır. Bahtin’in karnavalı, dili, sahne yeri, hiyerarşileri yerle bir eden ilişki biçimi, gülmenin yıkıcı gücü, groteski ve beden tanımlamaları tiyatroda yeni arayışlara teknik, teorik ve pratik bakımdan zengin ve özgün olanaklar sunar. Bu çalışma odağına, Bahtinyen düşüncenin çağdaş tiyatro uygulamalarına etkilerini alır ve Robert Wilson’un Kraliçe Viktorya’ya Bir Mektup’unu sözün yazınsallıktan koparılarak nesneye dönüştüğü; Orman’ını ilksel bütünselliğe dönüşün tesis ve temsil edildiği teatral uzam olarak somutlar.

Published: December 2022

This study aimed to develop meatless nuggets (MN) using different substitutions of chickpea and oyster mushrooms as key ingredients. Four different meatless nuggets which were control (100:0), MN70 (70:30), MN40 (40:60), and MN10 (10:90) with different ratios of boiled chickpea to mushroom were formulated in this study. A significantly (p<0.05) higher carbohydrate, protein, fat, and crude fiber contents were observed with the increasing chickpea substitution. Nuggets prepared with chickpea and mushroom proteins met the standard of protein source for the nutrient reference value as well as the source of good fiber. However, results found that a significant (p<0.05) lower cooking yield and higher cooking loss were recorded in the sample substituted with the maximum ratio of mushroom (MN10). Likewise, textural properties such as hardness, springiness, cohesiveness, and chewiness increase (p<0.05) with mushroom substitution. Substitution with higher chickpea tends to increase lightness (L*) and yellowness (b*) of control. The panelists for the sensory evaluation presented that MN40 containing an almost equal substitution of chickpea to mushroom had a better sensory mean score. However, substitution by these ingredients was the averagely scored by the panelists. Hence, nuggets with a 40:60 ratio of chickpea to mushroom were considered the ideal formulation for manufacturing meatless nuggets.

There has been a surge in interest in using food waste (FW) as an insect-rearing substrate in recent years. We examine the effect of protein-based food waste (leftover boneless chicken, LBC), carbohydrate-based food waste (overnight rice, OR), and fruit-based food waste (rotten banana, RB) on the following parameters: substrate reduction (SR), waste reduction index (WRI), bioconversion rate (BCR) and relative growth rate (RGR). BSFL reared on OR feed substrate had the highest biomass (0.23±0.01) g at d9 followed by RB (0.22±0.00) g and LBC (0.16±0.00) g. Larvae from OR-fed BSFL were the longest, averaging 20.53±0.46 mm in length on d12. The SR calculated for all feed substrates were as followed: RB (95.35 ± 0.33)% > OR (85.29 ± 0.80)% > LBC (83.17 ± 0.27)%. The WRI for control (C) and BSFL-fed on all feeds were in the following manner: (RBC:8.90±0.00 g days-1, RBBSFL:9.53±0.00 g days-1) > (ORC:7.35±0.00 g days-1, ORBSFL:8.53±0.09 g days-1) > (LBCC:6.90±0.00 g days-1, LBCBSFL: 8.32±0.03 g days-1). OR-fed BSFL showed the highest BCR (76.0±1.0) % and RGR (0.32±0.01) days-1. The FW’s self-composting (as in control) influenced the BSFL’s SR and WRI in all diets. Overall, the BSFL’s growth and development are affected by the nature, quality, and type of diet of the feed substrates.

Authors: Ali Mahmoud Emad Aldin , Kumar Dinesh
Published: December 2022

Face recognition has aroused great interest in a range of industries due to its practical applications nowadays. It is a biometric method that is used to identify and certify people with unique biological traits in a reliable and timely manner. Although iris and fingerprint recognition technologies are more accurate, face recognition technology is the most common and frequently utilized since it is simple to deploy and execute and does not require any physical input from the user. This study compares Neural Networks using (SGD, Adam, or L-BFGS-B) optimizers, with diﬀerent activation functions (Sigmoid, Tanh, or ReLU), and deep learning feature extraction methodologies including Squeeze Net, VGG19, or Inception model. The inception model outperforms the Squeeze Net and VGG19 in terms of accuracy. Based on the findings of the inception model, we achieved 93.6% of accuracy in a neural network with four layers and forty neurons by utilizing the SGD optimizer with the ReLU activation function. We also noticed that using the ReLU activation function with any of the three optimizers achieved the best results based on findings of the inception model, as it achieved 93.6%, 89.1%, and 94% of accuracy for each of the optimization algorithms SGD, Adam, and BFGS, respectively.This is an Open Access article distributed under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution License (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/), which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium provided the original work is properly cited.
A Thermovoltaic Voltage Source Integrated with a Samovar
Authors: KILIÇ Erdal , MUTLU Reşat , KARAKULAK Ertuğrul
Published: December 2022

Renewable energy sources are becoming very important in today’s World. Waste heat from industrial processes is very common in the world and such sources can be used to obtain electric power. Thermovoltaic power sources are getting cheaper and their electrical power output is getting higher due to technological developments. They have been used with waste heat sources such as hot water flowing out of factories and to obtain electrical sources. Nowadays, new application areas of thermovoltaic power sources are being looked for. Samovars, which burn brushwood, are pretty commonly used in rural areas to prepare warm drinks such as tea. Samovars only supply thermal power to boil water and they can be regarded as low-grade heat sources since they release a considerable amount of heat to the ambiance. Integrating a thermovoltaic power source onto a samovar would turn it into a voltage source and also increase its overall energy efficiency. Such a system may allow charging batteries of low power loads such as flashlights and cell phones in rural areas where it is hard to reach the electrical grid. In this study, a thermovoltaic power source is integrated with a samovar for the first time in the literature and the performance of such a system is experimentally inspected. It has been found that the system’s electrical power output is low, the air convection around the semiconductor pairs of the module may be contributing to its low power performance, and a more complex system model is needed to model it accurately.

Published: December 2022

The involvement of medical students in patient clerkship, whether in outpatients or inpatients wards, is an important aspect of the training of medical students. During clinical clerkship, students extend their medical knowledge, practice procedural and communication skills, and develop clinical thinking to build their clinical proficiency. However, this is only possible if there are healthy, consensual, and professional patient–student interactions and when patients show a positive attitude towards student participation. This study aimed to determine the attitude, perception, and level of acceptability of medical students’ involvement in patient management among in-patients of Ahmadu Bello University Teaching Hospital (ABUTH), Zaria. A cross sectional hospital-based study was conducted among 185 patients of ABUTH, Zaria using an interviewer administered questionnaires. One hundred and eighty-five consented respondents aged ≥15 years were enrolled and administered with the doctors during the ward round time questionnaire. Data collected were presented in frequency and percentages. Most of the respondents 169 (91.4%) reported to have history of previous contact with medical students in their previous hospitalization, and 125 (67.6%) showed good attitude, perception and high acceptance level toward involvement of medical student in their clinical management. However, 40 (23.5%) patients raised their concern towards informing them before involving medical students in their clinical care. Hence, it was recommended that patients should be informed and agreed before medical students are allowed to be involved in their care in ABUTH Zaria.

Authors: Abdulrahman HT , Wulgo MA , Gaya SS
Published: December 2022

The toxicity of Bularafa raw diatomaceous earth (BRDE) to Rhyzopertha dominica adults on stored maize and sorghum grains was conducted under ambient laboratory conditions (31-34oC and 24 – 30% R.H.). The BRDE was tested at doses: 0 (untreated control), 250, 500, 1,000 1,500, and 2000 mg/kg and Protect-It® at 1000 mg/kg of grain which served as a check. Thirty (30) mixed-sex adult insects were exposed to 50 g of freshly treated grains, and mortality was observed after 7 and 14 days. The results showed that a higher number of exposed Rhyzopertha dominica adults died on maize than on sorghum, and mortality increased with an increase in dose and exposure period. After 7 days of exposure to treated maize and sorghum grains, the LD95 values were 4981 and 5890 mg/kg of BRDE, respectively. The corresponding values after 14 days were 1561 and 3206 mg/kg, respectively

Published: December 2022

In this work we employ the split-step technique combined with a Legendre pseudospectral representation to solve various time-dependent GrossPitaevskii equations (GPE). Our findings based on the numerical accuracy of this approach applied for one-dimensional (1D) and two-dimensional (2D) problems show that it can provide accurate and stable solutions. Moreover, this approach has been applied to study the dynamics of the Bose-Einstein condensate which is modeled with the GPE. The breathing of condensate with a repulsive and attractive interactions trapped in 1D and 2D harmonic potentials has been simulated as well.

Published: December 2022

Silicon-organic polymers containing thioacetamide, thiocarbamide, and dioxothiocarbamide groups were used in this investigation. The polymers were produced by the hydrolytic poly-condensation reaction of silicon-organic monomer, 3-triethoxysilylpropylamine. Au(III) sorption onto the polymers has been studied. The optimal condition of the sorption is confirmed by sorption experiments which were carried out at various times and in acidic solution conditions. Based on the result of the instrumental analysis and the values of thermodynamic parameters, such as ΔG°, ΔH°, and ΔS° can be concluded that Au(III) can be connected with the electro-donor nitrogen and sulfur atoms of the functional group of the polymer by chemical and coordination bonds.

Authors: De Jesus Jemmyson Romário , De Araújo Andrade Tatianny
Published: December 2022

Background: SARS-CoV-2 virus is currently one of the main causes of death worldwide. Several studies have suggested that various trace elements play a vital role in the immune activity during viral infection, being an important tool to understand the SARS-CoV-2 infection and its systemic behavior, which affects different organs.

Purpose: To summarize recent studies that report the effect of trace elements on the immune system and their role in fighting SARS-CoV-2 infection, presenting potential biochemical routes.

Method: The main databases (ScienceDirect®, Scopus®, PubMed®) were consulted to search for works published up to October 2022, focusing on the role of trace elements in the immune activity against viral infection, including SARS-CoV-2.

Conclusion: Many elements can act both in the activation of the host’s immune activity and in the survival of the virus since these processes occur with the participation of essential metals to guarantee the integrity of their functions. However, the relationship between trace elements and viral infection is complex, and requires further studies, mainly, focusing on the systemic behavior of SARS-CoV-2 infection.

Authors: Jain Neha
Published: December 2022

Cinema has long been a pillar of our culture. On a variety of subjects, it shocked, amused, inspired, and exceeded hopes and expectations. Film is also seen as a powerful tool for accelerating social change, subtly influencing society's way of thinking. Indian cinema is said to have different genres as they should appeal to a wide range of audiences. The topic undergoes constant paradigm shifts. Various epics, myths, tales, and retellings of side stories were shown at the beginning of the movie. The film then highlighted the ideas of the freedom movement and Gandhi's philosophy. More recently, true events have been incorporated and film actors have waged battles for social justice. In addition, through widespread publicity, they started enacting important changes that affected politics and other political dramas. The contents of the film are frequently taken from society and vice versa, and the term is used to designate a broad range of sexual identities, including non-cisgender. Without a doubt, the LGBT movement in India has benefited enormously from the movies. Like many other modern social movements, the Indian queer movement seeks to change society. a shift in our perception of sexuality away from seeing it as a passing phase. His objective is to dismantle the constructed barriers of predominate notions that characterize the typical adult's sexual world.

Published: December 2022

This study consummated in the open field at the nursery of Hort. Res. Inst., A.R.C., Giza, Egypt during 2020 and 2021 seasons to explore the response of Jatropha curcas  plants to EM (effective microorganisms) which was applied as soil drench at 3 ml/L, 5 times with one month interval. Plants cultured in 25-cm-diameter plastic pots filled with sand only as control (T1), sand + plant compost 10 % mixture (T2), T2 + EM (T3), sand + plant compost 20 % mixture (T4), T4 + EM (T5), sand + plant compost 30 % mixture (T6) and T6+ EM (T7). The obtained results showed that means of the different growth parameters ;expressed as:  plant height, number of leaves / plant , leaf area , root length , as well as fresh and dry weights of stem, leaves and roots were ascending increased as the ratio of compost was increased in the soil especially with EM treatments compared to means of control in most cases of the two seasons, otherwise stem diameter trait, which progressively increased with the middle ratio of compost (20 %) and compost (20 %) + EM followed by the highest one (30 %) and (30%) + EM reached to the lowest values of compost (10 %) and (10 %) + EM over control in the first and second season. A similar trend was also obtained regarding the leaf content of chlorophyll a, b, carotenoids beside the percentages of N and total carbohydrates which were recorded the highest values with sand + compost (30%) subsequent sand + compost (20%) and sand + compost (10%) individually or with EM. Whereas, the leaf contents of P% and K% significantly increased in sand + compost (20%), (30 %) and then (10%) whether with EM or without. Hence, it can be recommended to drench EM (3 ml/l) in sand soil mixed with plant compost (30 %) in which  J. curcas plants are grown to keep good growth and the best quality plant.

Indonesia with the Pancasila ideology has encouraged people to have the principle of pluralism in diversity. The development of religious plurality in Indonesia seems to extinguish the fire of proclaiming the good gospel. However, that's not really an excuse not to share the gospel. The proclamation of the gospel as the Great Commission must still be carried out with wise strategies and methods. The author has conducted research by browsing the literature in the form of journals and books. The results of the study found that preaching the gospel in Indonesia can be done while maintaining harmony and harmony in life in the midst of a plurality of Indonesian people with 3P strategies, namely: first presence, presence in the midst of society. The second proclamation, after being well received began the step of the proclamation of the good news. Third, persuasion is carried out to encourage acceptance of Jesus. While the method used is the Pancanyata method. Starting from explaining that humans are in the image and likeness of God, fallen into sin and damaged the image of God, restoration in Jesus and towards the likeness of Christ who is the image of God.Indonesia dengan ideologi Pancasila telah mendorong masyarakat untuk memiliki prinsip pluralisme dalam keberagamaan. Berkembangnya pluralitas agama di Indonesia sepertinya memadamkan api pewartaan injil baik. Namun, sebenarnya itu bukan alasan untuk tidak melakukan pewartaan injil. Pewartaan injil sebagai Amanat Agung tetap harus di jalankan dengan strategi dan metode yang bijak. Penulis telah melakukan penelitian dengan penelusuran pustaka baik dalam bentuk jurnal maupun buku. Hasilnya penelitian menemukan bahwa pewartaan Injil  di Indonesia bisa dilakukan dengan tetap menjaga keselarasan dan seserasian hidup ditengah-tengah pluralitas masyarakat Indonesia dengan strategi 3P yaitu: pertama presensi, kehadiran ditengah-tengah masyarakat. Kedua proklamasi, setelah diterima dengan baik mulai langkah proklamasi inil. Ketiga, dilakukan persuasi untuk mendorong menerima Yesus. Sedangkan metode yang digunakan adalah metode Pancanyata. Mulai dari menjelaskan bahwa manusia segambar dan serupa dengan Allah, jatuh dalam dosa dan rusaknya gambar Allah, pemulihan dalam Yesus dan menuju keserupaan dengan Kristus yang adalah gambar Allah.

Powder metallurgy (PM) is an important production route of alloys and is also important in terms of its properties and economy. This method is suitable for the production of complex and versatile shapes and structures. In this study, it was tried to improve the microstructure and mechanical properties of CuAlNi and CuAlNi-SiC alloys sintered at constant pressing and constant temperature. Composite samples were manufactured by the PM method by supplementing the CuAlNi powder mixture with SiC powders at different weight ratios (2.5%, 5, 7.5 and 10%) at the micron level. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) and optical microscope were used to determine the microstructures of the manufatured samples, and X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) and X-Ray Diffraction method (XRD) analyzes were used to determine the phases formed in their internal structures. Micro hardness (HV5) was taken to determine the hardness effect. According to the micro structure results, SiC particles were homogeneously dispersed in the structure. Depending on the increasing SiC reinforcement, an increase in hardness values was observed.

Elektromanyetik koruma amaçlı toz üretim teknikleri olarak gaz atomizasyon tekniği ve kimyasal çöktürme yöntemi, soljel yöntemi vs. örnek verilebilir. Gaz atomizasyon tekniğinde metal bazlı toz üretimi olurken, hidroksiapatit (HA) gibi doğal kaynaklardan seramik tozu üretimi kimyasal çöktürme yöntemi ile sağlanmaktadır. Bu çalışmada atık madde olan yumurta kabuğundan HA sentezlenerek hem çevre kirliliğinin önüne geçilmesine katkıda bulunulmuş hem de termal dayanımı ve elektromanyetik kalkanlama özelliği yüksek malzemeler elde edilmiştir. HA ve PLA polimeri istenilen özelliklere sahip kompozit malzeme olabilmesi için çift vidalı ekstruderde karıştırılarak yeniden granül hale getirilmiştir. Ağırlıkça %8 ve %15 HA konsantrasyonlarında hazırlanan bu kompozit malzeme kullanılarak tek vidalı ekstruder ile üç boyutlu yazıcılarda kullanılmak üzere 1.75mm çapında filament üretildi. Termal dayanımı ve elektromanyetik kalkan özelliği yüksek bu yeni filamentler ile üç boyutlu yazıcıda prototip ürünler üretildi. Bu prototip ürünler termal gravimetrik analiz testine ve elektromanyetik dalga iletim testlerine tabii tutulmuştur. Bu testlerin sonucunda üretilen ürünlerde HA miktarı arttıkça termal dayanımının ve elektromanyetik dalga sönümlemesinin arttığı görülmüştür.

Background: Risk-taking has an influential role in accident occurrence or prevention. Hence, having a valid tool to evaluate workers for risk-taking is necessary. Risk-taking has been intensely studied in the field of psychology and neuroscience, leading to the development of several questionnaires and software. Objectives: In the present study, a new questionnaire was developed and validated based on the conceptual model to assess risk-taking behavior in people working in operator control rooms in industrial settings. Methods: Questions were selected from well-known psychological scales based on a conceptual model, followed by approving its face validity and conducting exploratory factor analysis (EFA). Afterward, some models were computed with confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) and Bayesian structural equation modeling (BSEM). The questionnaire was completed by 208 males who worked in the control room of some industries in Markazi province, Iran, in 2021. Test-retest reliability was done by 42 participants at a three-month interval. Results: One factor and 12 items were suggested by EFA. The model was accepted based on the results of Operator Control Room Risk-taking Questionnaire (ORTQ) goodness of fit CFA (χ2/df = 1.89, comparative fit index (CFI) = 0.90, root mean square error of approximation (RMSEA) = 0.09, and P < 0.001). The correlation coefficient (P < 0.001) between risk-taking and impulsivity was 0.65. However, it was 0.69 between venturesomeness and risk-taking and 0.58 between impulsivity and venturesomeness. Cronbach's alpha was 0.89 for ORTQ test-retest reliability. Operator Control Room Risk-taking Questionnaire was confirmed to have a better leave-one-out cross-validation information criterion (LOOIC) based on BSEM rather than Bayesian confirmatory factor analysis (BCFA). Conclusions: Operator Control Room Risk-taking Questionnaire is a valid and reliable questionnaire that can be used as a screening tool for risk-taking traits in workers before enrolment.

Background: The quality of sleep has different physical and psychological consequences, and can affect students' academic achievement. Objectives: This study aimed to explore factors associated with sleep quality in university students using panel regression. Methods: This study was conducted based on the data from a longitudinal study, namely the “Health and Lifestyle of University Students”. The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), a self-administered questionnaire containing general information about sleep quality, Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI), a questionnaire consisting of information about anxiety, Healthy Lifestyle Scale for University Students (HLSUS), and a questionnaire including information about lifestyle were completed by students during the first eight weeks of their first semester. The Panel linear regression and frontier model were used to assess the association of sleep quality with sex, unit, residency, marital status, teeth brushing, drug use, alcoholic drinks, age, anxiety, and healthy lifestyle. Results: A total of 706 individuals (46.8%) suffered from poor sleep quality. Between the two models of panel linear regression and frontier, the former (i.e., panel linear regression) was determined to be a more powerful model with the Akaike information criteria = 3790.68 and Bayesian information criteria = 3899.712, suggesting that the dormitory students with a high level of anxiety and low level of healthy lifestyle had significantly poor sleep quality. Conclusions: Residency, drug use, anxiety, and healthy lifestyle scale were found to be closely associated with sleep quality of university students by using panel linear regression model. Our finding may have been of valuable help to policymakers and planners in their effort to improve the sleep quality of university students.

Defending Joint Acceptance Accounts of Group Belief Against the Challenge from Group Lies
Authors: Schwengerer Lukas ,   Romanian Academy - Iasi Branch
Published: December 2022

Joint acceptance accounts of group belief hold that groups can form a belief in virtue of the group members jointly accepting a proposition. Recently, Jennifer Lackey (2020, 2021) proposed a challenge to these accounts. If group beliefs can be based on joint acceptance, then it seems difficult to account for all instances of a group telling a lie. Given that groups can and do lie, our accounts of group belief better not result in us misidentifying some group lies as normal assertions. I argue that Lackey‘s argument is not decisive. The cases she proposes as challenges for joint acceptance accounts can be dealt with in the joint acceptance framework. I present two different readings of Lackey‘s central case, showing that in both readings Lackey‘s example of a problematic group lie should not be identified as a lie, but rather as an epistemic mistake by the group. What kind of mistake the group makes depends on the exact reading of Lackey‘s case, but either way the group is not telling a lie.
