Published: November 2022

Africa is one of the richest continents in terms of natural resources, cultural diversity among others. It is a continent from which the black man originated. It is also the continent that the whites colonized and still colonize diplomatically. Moreover, the whites had hidden their real agenda of Africa whereby they colonized Africa with force through their manipulative projections by saying that Africa has no culture, it has neither civilization, nor custom. Despite the fact that Africa has a long existing traditional history which was administratively structured into empires and kingships. This research work shows us how Africa is not valued and how it was discovered, shared and its situation during and after colonization, as well as the struggle for its independence.

An Organic chemical called Dopamine belongs to catecholamine and phenethylamine chemical families. A neurotransmitter chemical released by neurons and is one of prime function of Dopamine in the brain. They are essential in communicating messages for all parts of the brain and between the brain and body organs. Body movement is controlled by dopamine. A lack of or an insufficient dopamine generation in part of the brain can lead to Parkinson ’s Disease (PD). It is a one of neurological disorder that affects body movement. It may cause stiffness, trembling in body parts. Detection of low level dopamine is challenging and complex as the low level of dopamine is related to Parkinson’s disease. In this chapter we present an approach towards early detection of this neurological disorder PD by employing CMOS readout circuit which measures and amplifies low level dopamine in the form of electrical signal from brain with help of electrodes.ADC is used to convert amplified analog signal to digital information. Machine learning algorithms are used to predict the disease based on the data received from the readout circuit. Dopamine level is measured in current which ranges from pA to nA. CMOS Amplifiers are used to strengthen the acquired signal in the range of millivolts (mV) with the help of bio amplifiers. For conversion of acquired current in the range of pA to voltage with amplitude of micro voltage (µV) CMOS front called Transimpedance amplifier (TIA) is employed. This chapter provides complete design and analysis of low noise, low power CMOS machine learning based readout circuit for detection and prediction of Parkinson’s disease.

Authors: S Dr. Rajalaxmi
Published: November 2022

Image Processing is a prominent tool which supports medical experts to probe in effectively with their diagnosis and prognosis procedures. Imaging human body have been developed prominently in the last two decades and had aided many decision support systems. This had also proved in curing multiple diseases which was a challenge in the past. Imaging is done in human body at various modalities and is categorized based on images produced. Ultrasound Imaging, Magnetic Resonance Imaging, X-Rays, Computed Tomography, Positron Emission Tomography and Single Emission Photon Emission Computed Tomography are the mostly utilized medical imaging modalities. They play a vital role in supporting medical experts with high precision accuracy in visualizing the internal organs and tissues. In imaging, artefacts are a major issue in capturing the expected image and position of the organ or tissue or a cell in the human body. For accurate diagnosis, lucid imaging details of the region of interest are required to read the minute details of the affected organ/cell/tissue. Researchers have contributed multiple noise filtering algorithms and some of the algorithms are accommodated with the imaging system. This will provide a filtered image thereby aiding the medical experts with clear picture in diagnosing the disease from the region of interest. The boom of Artificial Intelligence is a dominant support in future medical imaging modalities as it is surpassing the critics in the current time. It has the capability to process enormous quantity of medical images with high precision and accuracy and with fine details that are invisible in naked eyes. The roaring development of Artificial Intelligence in medical imaging will provide medical experts with value added task and will thereby enhance patient interaction times.

Land has an important and strategic role for human life. Land is interpreted as a source of life for humans because this is where humans live, continue their descendants, and carry out various activities on the ground so that humans are always in contact with the ground. Given the importance of land for human life and considering that land prices are always increasing, humans always try their best to own and control land in order to meet their needs and improve their welfare. So that the land owned by someone is not taken or taken by another person, proof of ownership of the right to the land is needed, which is called the right of ownership. The method of obtaining land ownership rights can occur due to the transfer of land rights, due to legal actions and by means of transfer of land rights due to legal events. For the transfer of land rights, an authorized official is needed to manage the transfer of rights. The official in question is the Land Deed Making Officer (PPAT). Based on this, the researcher will conduct research on the Role of Land Deed Making Officials (PPAT) in the Registration of Land Ownership Rights. To find out, in this research, the author uses an empirical juridical legal research type. This legal research will see how the implementation of Government Regulation Number 24 of 2016 concerning Amendments to Government Regulation Number 37 of 1998 concerning the Regulation of the Position of Land Deed Officials in carrying out their positions for registration of changes in land ownership rights. The data used are primary data and secondary data. Primary data was obtained by conducting semi-structured interviews with PPAT. Secondary data is needed to add insight to the researcher and as a basis for conducting this research. The data that has been collected will be analyzed qualitatively so that it can describe the role of PPAT in the registration of property rights on land. The role of the Land Deed Maker Official (PPAT) in registering changes in land ownership rights is to make an authentic deed in the form of a sale and purchase deed, if the transfer of land rights occurs due to legal actions such as buying and selling and then taking care of the registration procedure with the Land Agency. As for the transfer of land rights due to legal events, the PPAT only plays a role in taking care of the registration procedure with the Land Agency.
Obrzęd(y) w "Lilijach" Adama Mickiewicza
Authors: Rusek Iwona E.
Published: November 2022

The author of the paper focuses on the phenomenon of rites in Lilije, a ballad by Adam Mickiewicz. The author claims that the whole rite has been triggered by a crime, when the wife kills her husband. She murders him upon his return to her and their children from war. Mickiewicz’s Ballads and Romances published two hundred years ago, still captivate us today with their language and, above all, with the power of imagination that the author offers the reader in every work, through descriptions of folk beliefs and stories which, linked to the rhythm of life, reveal its meaning and the mystery contained in rites. On the one hand, these rites or magical practices help to explain reality and, on the other, emphasise that reality also has another face, which we will never know, as it belongs to beings from the beyond.
Lektura "Pieśni Osjana" przez Marię Wirtemberską i jej wpływ na kreację literacką tytułowej bohaterki "Malwiny, czyli domyślności serca"
Authors: Grusza Sylwia Aleksandra
Published: November 2022

The aim of the article is to present the connections between Malvina, or the Heart’s Intuition with The Works of Ossian, which are noticeable in many aspects of the work, especially in the literary figure of the title character. The interest in the songs of the Scottish bard among the writers of the literary school of Puławy made Maria Wirtemberska attentive to the problems and aesthetics of James Macpherson's work. Malwina resembles Ossian's heroines in many aspects, which are revealed by endowing her with specific qualities, abilities, and a way of perceiving reality. The character of the Malvina also has several features in common with Macpherson's Ossian. The Duchess compares the Bard's tendency to transform memories into poetry with the attributes that characterize the images of the women described in Ossian's stories. Malvina also combines the trait of heroine from a sentimental novel, endowed with a tenderness, with the heroism and courage of a chivalrous ethos. The use of visual elements typical for Osianism, including the tendency to present the main character on the background of a lunar landscape, and the fascination with the knightly tradition, allowed the Duchess to create a heroine that would stand out from the female characters portrayed in Polish literature before 1816. The article also contains reflections on the Polish translations of The Works of Ossian (written until 1815), which Maria Wirtemberska might have come across after her return to Poland.
„Ach! Ukrainy nie będzie!”. O specyficznym ujęciu tematu ukraińskiego w polskiej poezji romantycznej
Authors: Szargot Maciej
Published: November 2022

The paper is devoted to the peculiar way of depicting Ukraine in the works of Polish Romanticist poets. It is shown there as a land undergoing a process of disappearance - in a visual or historiosophical sense. The process of visual disappearance is addressed in works describing the impressions of a stranger, a tourist - simultaneously fascinated by Ukraine and unable to find himself in its infinite space. The historiosophical or metaphysical disappearance, in turn, is the subject of works of the "Ukrainian school", which reflect concern with the violence of civilisational or political changes and death - in the broadest sense - of people, places and social order.
Chiński przekład "Pana Tadeusza". Historia, fenomen, problemy i inspiracje
Authors: Zhang Tingting
Published: November 2022

The aim of this paper is to describe the reception of the literature of Polish Romanticism in China, as well as its long and winding road to the Middle Kingdom. The article addresses the ideological beginnings of the existence of Adam Mickiewicz’s works in the consciousness of Chinese people. The author analyses two translations of Pan Tadeusz into Chinese, made during the first half of the 20th century. Information about Polish Romanticism and the works of its most eminent representatives reached China at a very crucial historical moment for the Middle Kingdom, almost immediately arousing the interest of the elites. However, the same historical causes that triggered the fascination with the works of the Polish Romanticists also led to a distortion and ideologization of its reception, which persisted until 1955, when the first translation of Pan Tadeusz appeared in Chinese. However, that translation was made from English and written in prose. This changed at the end of the 20th century, when a second translation of the poem, written in verse, appeared. Despite the passage of time and the efforts of translators, the reception of the literature of Polish Romanticism and the knowledge of Adam Mickiewicz's biography is still incomplete. On the other hand, this can be an impulse for further research in translation and literary studies.
Фольклорні мотиви українського романтизму Олекси Стороженка (на прикладі твору "Марко Проклятий")
Authors: Rozinkewycz Natalia
Published: November 2022

The article aims to promote the works of the Ukrainian romantic writer Oleksa Storozhenko. The regional peculiarities of Ukrainian romanticism have been analyzed in the example of his work Marko Prokliatyi (Marco the Cursed). It was claimed that Ukrainian literature of the early XIX century contributed to the nation’s preservation during the statelessness of Ukraine.The freedom of the author’s artistic self-expression is found in his attention to mysticism, insanity, obsession, passion, addiction, and love. The author’s thoughts plunged into the unreal, delirium (illusions), dreams, fantasy, the demonic, and mysticism, and went deep into the subconscious and the spiritual world, while searching and idealizing God the Creator without denying the dualistic world order.Based on Ukrainian folkloric tradition and the use of the elements of Gothic and European literature, Oleksa Storozhenko depicts the travels of the eternal wanderer (Marco in the Ukrainian tradition), who is a werewolf, that is evil disguised as a man, and later, after the curse and for atonement (Christian idealism), he turns into a Cossack and takes part in the events of the XVII century and acts in the “here and now”.

Authors: Sawey-Ognayon Generose B. , Afalla Bonimar T.
Published: November 2022

Proficiency in licensure examinations has emerged as a foundation of pride for graduates and an attraction for potential students to higher education institutions (HEIs). Therefore, the purpose of this study was to uncover the admission criteria that confidently predicted the licensure performance of graduates of a state institution in the Philippine Cordillera Administrative Region. This study used correlation research and 654 randomly selected graduates of Ifugao State University (IFSU) who took and eventually passed their licensure tests. The records of the university registrar and the Professional Regulations Commission (PRC) were the primary sources of data. To comply with research ethics and standards, written permission from university officials was obtained. The mean, standard deviation, and frequency were used to describe the descriptive variables. Multiple regression analysis was utilized to identify the significant set of predictors of license performance per licensure examination. A stepwise procedure was used to select the best model. The study concludes that the performance of graduates in the fields of agriculture, criminology, and teacher education in their respective licensure examinations can best be predicted by their high school grade point average and admission test scores, whereas the performance of graduates in the field of forestry in their licensing exam is best explained by their performance in their secondary education curriculum.

Published: November 2022

Self-compassion is considered a protective factor that promotes positive psychology, happiness, emotional regulation and embodiment. Self‐compassion offers an approach wherein individuals in dance can pursue optimal participation and performance without compromising health and well‐being. The present study aimed to explore self-compassion among recreational dancers and discover possible differences between tango and ballet. More specifically the study examined: i) the levels of self-compassion in recreational tango and ballet dancers; ii) differences in self-compassion according to demographic characteristics; and iii) differences between tango and ballet dancers. The research was based on several adults from various cities in Greece who participated in tango and ballet for recreational reasons during their leisure time. One hundred and ninety-one dancers (20 men and 171 women), between the ages of 17 and 62, completed the self-compassion scale of Mantzios, Wilson and Giannou (2015), which consists of twenty-six items. The answers were given on a five-point Likert scale, while the reliability of the scale was successfully tested. In addition, the questionnaire contained the collection of other data such as demographic characteristics. According to the first aim, the high scores on self-compassion among recreational dancers showed a relationship between self-compassion and dance, and a positive influence of ballet and tango practice. The second hypothesis was partially confirmed as statistically significant differences emerged only between the age groups with those over forty years of age to show higher levels of self-compassion. Regarding the third aim of the research, differences were found between types of dance. Tango participants showed higher levels of self-compassion than ballet participants. Specific dance teaching interventions are discussed based on somatic and embodiment theory, to create healthier mental, emotional and behavioral patterns for dancers, schools, academies or companies.

Published: November 2022

The literature on error treatment techniques in education is abundant; still, the linkage between what is theoretical and what is practical can be very contentious. For this same reason, teachers are faced with the challenge of implementing consistent approaches of error treatment. Another focal point in this study is the divide between natural sciences and social sciences. In many cases, teachers of natural sciences cannot relate to the affordances of the social sciences to reshape and foster their pedagogical practices. This paper is intended to investigate error treatment practices amongst physics teachers in Morocco beyond and above what is stated in official guidelines. In particular, the current study was carried out with a total number of 120 high school teachers in Morocco during the academic year 2021-2022. The questionnaire method was used for the collection of numeric data while the interview method was used for probing the attitudes of the respondents towards the phenomenon under investigation. The legitimacy of the data was validated by means of multiple numeric estimations. The outputs from data analysis revealed a pressing need for teacher continuing professional development, being a prerequisite for fostering physics teachers’ pedagogical skills.

National Identity between the Principle of the Secular State and Freedom of Religion
Authors: Tokrri Renata , Muskaj Blerina , Bozheku Ersi
Published: November 2022

The religious symbols exposed in public buildings, such as schools, courtrooms, etc., in recent years animated the debate not only public but also jurisprudential. It turns out that, after centuries of attempts to “purify” states of religious influences, after years of attempts to “purify” public spaces of religious symbols, it seems that the modern state has failed to do so. In this century of globalization, we see a return of the sacred, a clash between different cultures, a "duel" between the different absolute truths that everyone believes they possess. In particular, there is a symbol, representative of all, under which all citizens are subject, regardless of their religious or philosophical conviction, and it is precisely the flag. It turns out that, one in three flags, that is, one third of the flags in the world contain religious symbols, predominantly Christian symbols, followed by Muslim ones and the rest Hindu, Buddhist, Jewish symbols and traditional religions and cults (Theodoru, 2014). The cross and the crescent moon are the most common where the majority of nations recognize themselves. The cross and the crescent are the most common where the majority of nations recognize themselves. The intent of this work is to be able to give a stricto jure answer to a complicated diatribe, analyzing whether the exhibition of religious symbols contained in flags can constitute a justified reason to believe that the principle of neutrality and secularity of the State, the principle of equality and non-discrimination, is violed. Through these principles the freedom of religion of each individual is also guaranteed, also taking into account the negative dimension of the latter. This problem affects many democracies, including European ones, yet the European Union itself aims to build a European identity, an identity in which everyone identifies and recognizes.

The Sociolinguistic Variation of (āʔ) in Hatim
Authors: Darwish Ibrahim , Al-Damen Ayah
Published: November 2022

This sociolinguistic study investigates the variation in the pronunciation of the variable (āʔ) in the variety of Hatim, north-west Jordan. This variable is studied in relation to five factors: age, gender, education, outside contact and following linguistic environment. Data were collected via informal sociolinguistic interviews. Sixty-four participants (30 males, 34 females) were recorded spontaneously by the researchers (duration=2227 minutes). Two variants for the variable (āʔ) were found in the variety of Hatim: the tradition variant [ā] and the innovative one [āʔ]. The Rbrul analysis of the data shows that only outside contact, gender and following linguistic environment are statistically significant. Put differently, participants with high contact with other speech communities used the innovative variant more than those with low contact. As it is the case in most speech communities, female participants favoured the innovative variant over the traditional one. In relation to the following linguistic environment, it was found that the innovative variant is favoured when it does not occur at utterance boundaries. There appear to be two competing forces in the variety of Hatim, one for the traditional Horani feature (i.e., dropping the final glottal stop) and another for an innovative feature (i.e., keeping the final glottal stop) that happened to coincide with the pronunciation in Modern Standard Arabic. It can safely be argued that the driving force behind this change in progress is not a reversion to Modern Standard Arabic. Rather, it is the present-day social prestige associated with the pronunciation of the final glottal stop that is pushing for this change.
