One way to extract valuable insights from large datasets is through cluster analysis. This statistical technique involves grouping data objects based on their similarities, aiming to create distinct groups where objects within each group share high similarities but differ significantly from objects in other groups. Cluster analysis, such as the OPTICS and ST-DBSCAN methods, can be utilized in various domains, including healthcare workforce and demographic data. In a case study focusing on health workers in East Lombok, these clustering methods were employed. The study aimed to present the outcomes of clustering health workers using OPTICS and ST-DBSCAN and determine the superior method through internal validation. The results from OPTICS revealed the formation of 5 clusters: cluster-1 with two sub-district members, cluster-2 with three members, cluster-3 with two members, cluster-4 with three members, and cluster-5 with seven members. Conversely, ST-DBSCAN produced only 2 clusters: cluster-1 with six members and cluster-2 with four members. Based on the internal validation findings, OPTICS emerged as the more effective method for categorizing health workers in East Lombok.

Objective: Hypertension poses a significant burden on the general population, being responsible for increasing cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. The association of hypertension with dyslipidemia, enlarged waistline (obesity), and insulin resistance, also known as metabolic syndrome, further increases the overall cardiovascular risk of an individual. This study assessed the metabolic syndrome among adult hypertensive individuals in Enugu, Nigeria. Methods: One hundred and twenty participants(18-50 years) consisting of sixty hypertensive subjects, as test group and sixty normotensive subjects, as control group were recruited for this cross sectional study. Anthropometric parameters, waist circumference (WC), height, weight, systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP) were measured and body mass index (BMI) calculated. Five milliliters of fasting blood samples were collected and used for the determination of fasting plasma glucose (FPG) and lipid profile (TC, TG, HDL-C, LDL-C, VLDL-C) using enzymatic colorimetric methods. Laboratory investigations were done in a hospital setting. Metabolic Syndrome (MetS) prevalence was estimated using the National Cholesterol Education Program-Adult Treatment Panel III (NCEP-ATP III) criteria. Data was analysed using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) version 26. Results: The results showed a significant increase (P< 0.05) in the mean ± SD of SBP (162.30 ± 18.94, 124.27 ± 8.85), DBP (106.77 ± 25.77, 83.40 ± 11.47), FPG (5.70 ± 1.90, 4.47 ± 0.64), TC (5.19 ± 0.913, 3.70 ± 0.94), LDL-C (3.05 ± 1.09, 1.68 ± 0.94) and a non-significant difference (P > 0.05) in WC (91.48 ± 8.69, 91.96 ± 10.84), TG (1.35 ± 0.37, 1.26 ± 0.49), HDL-C (1.62 ± 0.45, 1.59 ± 0.50), VLDL-C (0.517 ± 0.16, 0.47 ± 0.64) of the hypertensive and normotensive subjects respectively. The prevalence of MetS in hypertensive subjects was 33.3%, while that of the control group (normotensives) was 3.3%. Conclusion: The study concludes that hypertension predisposes an individual to higher risk of developing MetS.

Published: July 2024

Introduction: Phytoestrogens are nonsteroidal substances produced from plants with biological properties such as estrogen. The two main types of phytoestrogens are flavonoids and non-flavonoids. Flavonoids, including isoflavones, are among the most estrogenic compounds, and due to their structural similarities, they can bind to estrogen receptors. Isoflavones have been found in various foods, including fruits, vegetables, sprouts, seeds, and oilseeds (including flaxseeds). This review focuses on plants phytoestrogens that contain flavonoids, isoflavones, daidzein, and genistein. In addition, isoflavones can also be considered endocrine disruptors with the possibility of negative effects on the state of health in certain parts of the population or environment. This literature review will include phytoestrogen-rich crop yields on the reproductive health of mice. Method Systematic review: Literature searches are conducted on databases such as PubMed, ScienceDirect, Google Scholar, and Cochrane, with time limits. From 2014 to 2024, searches were carried out on this database, considering studies involving herbs, phytoestrogens, isoflavones, and genistein in ovariectomy rat’s model (OVX). The study found that plants rich in phytoestrogens can overcome post-ovariectomy complaints, increase estrogen levels, and increase normal cell proliferation. This herb is used as an effective alternative therapy in treating post-ovariectomy complaints. Result: The search results found 2,401 studies on phytoestrogens and hypoestrogenics in the reproductive organs. Conclusion: Phytoestrogens have active compounds that can improve the reproductive system after ovariectomy in female mice.

Lactic Acid Bacteria probiotics play a crucial role in improving aquaculture productivity however, their use required beforehand a rigorous selection. This study appeared as a preliminary research in LAB potential probiotics selection. The aim of study was to select LAB strains potentially probiotic isolated from gut intestine of tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) based on antibacterial activity and susceptibility antibiotics tests. The antibacterial activity was carried by agar well diffusion method against five pathogen indicators (E. coli ATCC 25922, K. pneumoniae ATCC 43816, P. aeruginosa ATCC 27853, P. mirabilis JCM1669, and S. aureus ATCC 25913). The susceptibility antibiotic test was performed by disc diffusion method by 12 antibiotics use. Seventy-two (72) from 154 LAB isolates completed the antibacterial activity test. With 79.08% inhibition, S. aureus was the pathogen most inhibited, whereas E. coli had the least inhibition, at 61.44%. In terms of antibiotic susceptibility testing, out of the 72 LAB isolates from earlier studies, only 25 LAB isolates demonstrated resistance to ciprofloxacin, gentamycin, and oxacillin and sensitivity to nine out of the twelve antibiotics employed. The 25 LAB isolates seemed suitable candidates for more probiotic tests.
An overview of molecular mechanisms in cancer drug resistance and therapeutic strategies
Authors: Navin Kumar  , Ranjeeta Bansala
Published: July 2024

Cancer resistance refers to the ability of cancer cells to evade the effects of treatments, such as chemotherapy and radiation, making it challenging to eliminate tumors. Cancer cells develop resistance through genetic modifications, alterations in cellular pathways, or microenvironmental adaptations that allow cancer cells to persist, proliferate, and even thrive despite the application of therapies designed to eradicate them. Despite efforts to create more potent target-based drugs, the flexibility of acquired resistance necessitates advanced options. Combination therapy and precision immunotherapy has revolutionized treatment but is limited by patient specificity and requires further development. New approaches like small molecules, peptides, and nanotherapeutics aim to overcome resistance by enhancing site-specific delivery and increasing drug concentration inside cancer cells. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the molecular mechanisms underlying cancer drug resistance, including genetic mutations, epigenetic alterations, efflux pump activity, and the influence of the tumor microenvironment. Additionally, the roles of microRNAs, long noncoding RNAs, and cellular processes such as autophagy and hypoxia in mediating resistance are examined. This review seeks to improve patient care and help to the development of more effective cancer medicines by explaining these complicated systems and investigating novel therapeutic alternatives.

Authors: Olubayo M AKINOSUN  , Olayemi M MAMIDU  , Elizabeth B BOLAJOKO
Published: July 2024

Background/Objective: Blood donors are life savers. They are also exposed to both exogenous and endogenous sources of free radical production. Therefore, this study aimed at investigating the oxidative stress status in apparently healthy blood donors in Ibadan. Method: This study was carried out in 100 urban and 67 rural male and female blood donors between the ages of 18 and 65 years after obtaining their consent. Ten (10) ml of venous blood was collected from each participant into heparinised bottles. The total plasma peroxides (TPP) and total antioxidant capacity (TAC) were determined using spectrophotometer and oxidative stress index (OSI) was calculated. All data were expressed as Mean ± SD. Results were analysed using one sample T-test to test the statistical significance between the variables. The level of significance was fixed at p ≤ 0.05. Result: In this study, the mean values of TPP and OSI were observed to be significantly higher in the urban blood donors (200±62.9µmol H2O2/L and 3.4±1.3%) compared with the rural blood donors (57.46±10.28µmol H2O2/L and 2.9±0.98%) (p < 0.001). Similarly, TAC (6388.7±1788.7 Vs 2133.99±708.1 p=0.000) was observed to be significantly higher in the urban blood donors compared with their rural counterparts. Conclusion: Significantly higher total plasma peroxides observed in urban blood donors is detrimental to the person receiving the blood. Therefore, intending blood donors should be educated on how to keep healthy feeding habits and life styles in order to improve their own health and the health of those they intend to save.
Identity and cultural expression in Nigerian hip hop
Authors: Blessing Febisola Okunola
Published: July 2024

This paper explores the profound influence of vernacular language on the construction of identity and ideology within Nigerian hip hop music. By analyzing the lyrics of prominent Nigerian hip hop artists, the study highlights how artists like Olamide, 9ice, and Tuface utilize Nigerian Pidgin and local dialects such as Yoruba to forge a distinct cultural and national identity. These artists not only celebrate their linguistic heritage but also leverage it as a form of resistance against linguistic and cultural imperialism, promoting a nationalist ideology that resonates deeply with their local audience. The paper argues that the incorporation of vernacular language in Nigerian hip hop goes beyond mere artistic choice; it serves as a critical tool for social and political commentary. This linguistic strategy enables artists to address and critique socio-economic inequalities and political issues, making hip hop a voice for the marginalized. Moreover, the study sheds light on how the use of local dialects and pidgin enhances the accessibility and relatability of the music, thereby strengthening the bond between artists and their audiences. This exploration into the intersection of language, identity, and ideology in Nigerian hip hop not only enriches our understanding of the genre's cultural significance but also underscores the dynamic role of language in shaping artistic and social landscapes. The paper contributes to broader discourses on language policy, cultural expression, and identity politics within the global context of hip hop.

FORMATION OF THE ARCHITECTURAL AND URBAN PLANNING SPACE OF OXBOW LAKES: SCIENTIFIC AND PRACTICAL EXPERIENCE
Authors: Samoilenko Ye.V. , Siryk B.D.
Published: July 2024

Problem statement. Following the adoption of Law No. 1641-VIII on October 4, 2016, the Ukrainian legislation introduced the “basin management principle”. This principle entails comprehensive (integrated) management of water resources within the river basin area [1]. In the valleys of lowland rivers with numerous bends, particularly in the Dnipro, Danube, and Vistula rivers, oxbow lakes are formed, representing remnants of old river channels. Oxbow lakes are small lakes that form on floodplains due to erosion and sediment deposition. In large cities, such lakes are important centers of biological diversity, improve microclimate, act as barriers to floods, and have an attractive appearance. However, oxbow lakes are susceptible to drying up, silting, and turning into marshes. Therefore, research on oxbow lakes in the context of urban planning is highly necessary to prevent chaotic development and preserve similar ecosystems. Additionally, the consolidation of experience in the development and rehabilitation of such objects is practically significant for urban planning. Research objective. The purpose is to examine and summarize the scientific and practical experience in forming the architectural and urban planning space along oxbow lakes. Conclusion. Scientific research in the fields of hydraulic engineering, agronomy, and urban planning that can be implemented in urban planning practice to address oxbow lake issues has been identified and systematized. Using satellite imagery and analytical maps, patterns in the organization of oxbow lake spaces in the largest cities of Ukraine have been identified. Similarly, examples of planning and development of lakeside (old riverbed) territories in Europe, America, Asia, and Oceania have been found and analyzed. Successful practical solutions for the use of scientific and technical methods for preserving oxbow lakes have been identified in the aforementioned examples. Patterns and trends in organizing development and street networks around small floodplain lakes and oxbow lakes have been revealed.
Artificially generated academic text (а linguopragmatic aspect)
Authors: Cherkasova Marina Nikolaevna , Taktarova Anna Valer’evna
Published: July 2024

In the process of integrating ‘artificial intelligence’ (AI) technologies into academic discourse, the procedure of writing an academic text is changing, and a new type of communicative interaction is formed – AI as the author of a ‘generated text’ (GТ) and a human being as the recipient of a text from AI. The aim of the study is to substantiate the perception of such a text by the recipient from the point of view of pragmalinguistic analysis on the basis of the identified features and indicators. An analysis of the functioning of artificially generated academic text is presented (5 scientific texts were generated by the Mahtext system). For the first time machine text is considered as an ‘speech act’ in three directions of its realisation: plan of expression, content and prediction. It is revealed that the neural network as a text author cannot transform and convey any attitude to the addressee (recipient), just as it cannot consciously influence him through its texts and have pragmatic intentions. The novelty of the study consists in the following: 1) for the first time we consider not an anthropological text, but an AI text; 2) as a result of pragmalinguistic analysis are revealed 7 main features and 7 indicators of GT; 3) the concept of ‘artificial speech act’ is proposed for the first time.

Published: July 2024

Sağlıklı olmanın önemli aşamalarından biri insanın sosyal bir varlık olmasıdır. Aile ve çevreyle başlayan sosyalleşme aynı zamanda iletişimle beraber sosyal öğrenmeyi de başlatmaktadır. Gerek ailenin öğretileri gerekse çevrenin tatbikleri, bilinçli veya bilinçsiz öğrenilmiş bilgiye dayanmakta, sosyalleşme bilgiyle mümkün olmaktadır. Kitle iletişiminin sunduğu imkânlar, bilgiye ulaşmayı kolaylaştırmaktadır. “Doğru” bilgi insanlara fayda sağlarken “yanlış ve/veya bozulmuş” bilgi ciddi problemlere yol açabilmektedir. Enformasyonun bu denli arttığı bir çağda, her konunun uzmanı olmak mümkün olmayacağından, insanlar ihtiyacı olan bilginin, uzmanlar tarafından yapılan yorumlarını takip etmektedir. İnsanların uzman yorumlarına ihtiyaç duydukları konuların başında da sağlık gelmektedir. Çünkü hayatı idame ettirebilmenin başat koşulu “sağlıklı” olmaktır. Her zaman sağlık kuruluşlarına gidemeyen halkın birincil haber kaynağı kitle iletişim araçları olmaktadır. Sağlık haberciliği, tıbbi gelişmeleri toplumla paylaşma işidir. Halk sağlığını olumlu veya olumsuz etkileme gücü bulunmaktadır. Yanlış veya yanıltıcı haberler ciddi halk sağlığı tehdidine kapı aralayabilir. Bu sebeple sağlık haberciliği konusunda oluşan literatür önem kazanmaktadır. Bu çalışmada halk sağlığı için önemli parametrelerden olan “sağlık haberciliğinin”, nicel veriler ve sayısal göstergeler eşliğinde, hangi ülke, hangi kurum ve hangi kişiler tarafından akademik çalışmalara konu edinildiği ve bunlar arasındaki ölçülebilir ilişkiyi ortaya koymak amaçlanmıştır. Vosviewer programı yardımıyla “sağlık haberciliği” anahtar kelimesiyle “Web of Science” veri tabanında yapılan tarama bibliyometrik analize tabi tutulmuştur. Ülkeler, kurumlar ve araştırmacılar temelli ağ haritaları oluşturulmuş, öne çıkanlar ayrıntılı değerlendirilmiştir.

The Oral Other and the Question of Discipleship in Michel de Certeau
Authors: Eleven Martin
Published: July 2024

The thought of the French Jesuit Michel de Certeau revolves around the figure of the absent Other. This article is dedicated to this enigmatic figure and its elusive appearance. The account of the disciples on the road to Emmaus and their encounter with a stranger serves as a point of departure for an examination of the interplay between absence and presence of this Other. The article thus analyzes the nature of the relationship that can be established with the stranger, who, upon closer inspection, emerges as the risen Christ in the narrative. In this manner, the article draws upon psychoanalytic theory of mourning developed by Freud to identify the concept of incorporation as a crucial tool to elucidating the relationship between the self and the Other and its significance for the question of discipleship.

Published: July 2024

The pension reform implemented in Russia in 2018, primarily associated with raising the retirement age, has become evidence of a ‘miscalculation’ of media controllers. Such a ‘miscalculation’ is explained by the improvidence of the ongoing campaign in promoting pension reform. This is mainly due to the lack of elaboration during the prediction of the risks associated with naming the legislative initiative and the intensity of its representation. As a result, the ‘pension reform’ frame, constructed and subsequently promoted by Russian federal TV channels, caused the non-linearity of the media process, inspiring protest moods in the social environment. The media controllers had to modify their editorial policy strategy. After facing challenges, the ‘Big Trio’ was forced to choose a new frame and decide on a new approach and strategy of representation. This helped them to bring stability to the social environment, decrease the risk of reputational damage to the ruling class, and create a foundation to introduce more political initiatives successfully.
Operation of the Russian Aerospace Forces in Syria in the Official Russian Discourse
Authors: Issaev Leonid , Bobarykina Daria
Published: July 2024

In this article, we analyze how the operation of the Russian Aerospace forces is presented in the official Russian discourse. The analysis is based on a collected database of statements made by the Russian authorities. Relying on social identity theory, we argue that the Russian operation in Syria became a key element in changing the Russian strategy in the Middle East. In other words, beginning in the mid-2010s, Russian policy in the Middle East moved from social competition to social creativity. Taking the Russian operation in Syria as an example, we assert that the second half of 2017 was a turning point because the military narration of the discourse was replaced at that point with the narration of the unique role of Russia in the regulation of the Syrian conflict. This narration included narratives related to ‘sovereignty’, ‘territorial integrity’, and the creation of alternative platforms to maintain stability.
Isaiah 56:9–59:21 and the Pursuit of שלום
Authors: Hamilton Mark W.
Published: July 2024

Isaiah 56:9–59:21 is a carefully constructed unit with a coherent rhetorical agenda. By reinvigorating traditional prophetic literary materials, it aims to reform some traditional practices, revitalize social structures, and point toward a conception of שלום as the product of Yhwh’s action. The unit serves the larger construction of Isaiah 56–66 as a whole. It may be read as an attempt to reimagine the world without Persian rule while not identifying that rule as a sort of given against which it must define itself. That complex approach to persuasion and audience agency shows a level of creativity not always associated with this text.
Jeremiah 33,1–13 MT/G: A Case Study into the Textual Complexity of the Book of Jeremiah
Authors: de Waard Henk
Published: July 2024

The complex textual situation of the book remains a major topic in Jeremiah studies. The present article provides a case study on this topic, examining all divergences between the Masoretic text and the Old Greek translation of Jer 33,1–13. It supports the view that the Old Greek represents a variant Hebrew text form of the book, which is generally more ancient than the version of the Masoretic text. At the same time, the examination reveals secondary textual developments in the Hebrew text underlying the Old Greek, In addition, inner-translational factors played a role in causing divergences between the Hebrew and the Greek.
Wer waren die Netinîm?
Authors: Kellenberger Edgar
Published: July 2024

In view of the scarcity of sources on the class of the Temple servants (Netinîm), it is advisable to look at Mesopotamian and Greek sources, which offer analogies by much richer information. For the question of conceivable analogies to the scattered information in Ezr/Neh, it must also be considered whether the Jerusalem Temple owned land and who carried out the necessary work.
Hamlets Gewissen
Authors: Mahler Andreas
Published: July 2024

From the point of view of temporality, Shakespeare’s tragedy of Hamlet falls into two parts. The first sequence, leading from the ghost’s appearance to the Mousetrap, stages – in its manifold soliloquies and monologues slowly and painfully exploring the protagonist’s conscience – Hamlet’s inexorable inner search for truth so as to be able to legitimize his ‘sovereign’ right to act. This is what is read as a programmatic ‘interiorisation’ of structural violence. The second sequence, leading from Hamlet’s authorisation to act to his unfortunate and untimely death, pursues the contingent asynchronicities between the right to take revenge and the continuous (ironical) denial of an appropriate situation for its necessary perpetration. This is in turn seen as a showcased ‘precarity’ of revenge. Both sequences show a marked dependency on a new, linear conceptualization of time: in both sequentially accepting and denying the right to revenge, they aesthetically negotiate the observable early modern shift in temporality from a cyclical ‘guarantee’ of a return to the invariable (and in this sense atemporal) ‘same’, to open and at times self-contradictory linear processes of being bent on the production/realization of results and, hence, of (personally) having to ‘find out’ and act.
Ein afroamerikanisches, fiktives Tagebuch aus dem Konzentrationslager Dachau
Authors: Zocco Gianna
Published: July 2024

Der Artikel bietet eine Analyse von John A. Williams’ Roman Clifford’s Blues (1999), der in der Form eines fiktiven, von einem afroamerikanischen Jazz-Musiker geschriebenen Tagebuchs von der Inhaftierung im Konzentrationslager Dachau erzählt. Der Roman lässt sich nicht nur als mit den Mitteln der Fiktion arbeitender Beitrag zur Geschichte der Verfolgung Schwarzer Menschen im Nationalsozialismus verstehen, sondern auch als transatlantisches, vermeintlich historisches Zeitzeugnis, das aus einer ungewöhnlichen Perspektive die Thematik eines „unsteten Archivs“ verflochtener Gewalt- und Exilerfahrungen beleuchtet. Das Augenmerk der Analyse liegt einerseits auf den Chancen eines solchen Archivs: Der Roman zeigt Möglichkeiten diasporischer Gemeinschaftsbildung und beschreibt die transatlantische Perspektive des Protagonisten als Ressource für das Erkennen von Kontinuitäten der Unterdrückung wie auch für das Ableiten von alltäglichen Widerstandsstrategien. Andererseits werden ausgehend vom Kunstgriff der Herausgeberfiktion und von Dokumenten aus dem Nachlass Risiken und Widersprüche des hier entworfenen Archivs diskutiert. Es wird gezeigt, dass dieses zwar auf Transnationalität abzielt, jedoch teilweise der Rückbindung an ein lokales Moment bedarf.
Passagen der Identität: Der Ort der Staatenlosen bei Irmgard Keun, Anna Seghers und Ruth Feiner
Authors: Breyer Till
Published: July 2024

Der Aufsatz geht dem Zusammenhang zwischen Identität, Identifikation und Narration anhand dreier Romane des Exils nach: Irmgard Keuns Kind aller Länder (1938), Anna Seghers’ Transit (1947) und Ruth Feiners Young Woman of Europe (1942). Die seit den 1930er Jahren zunehmende Gewaltsamkeit bürokratischer Identifizierungsregime, so die zentrale These, führt in diesen Exilromanen zu einer grundsätzlichen Problematisierung von personaler, nationaler und geschlechtlicher Identität, die bis in die Form des Erzählens hineinwirkt. Indem sie sich zwischen Figuren der Desidentifikation auf der einen und identitätspolitischen Anordnungen auf der anderen Seite situieren, loten Romanautor*innen, aber auch Theoretiker*innen wie Hannah Arendt Solidaritätspotenziale jenseits überkommener Identitätskonzeptionen aus.
Ozeanische Fabulationen. Den Schauplatz der Unterwerfung aufsuchen
Authors: Schade Julia
Published: July 2024

Ausgehend von Saidiya Hartmans Schreiben über die unmögliche Möglichkeit, die Verbrechen des transatlantischen Sklavenhandels zu erzählen, nimmt dieser Beitrag den Ozean als „Schauplatz der Unterwerfung“ (Hartman) in den Blick. Im Rückgriff auf dekoloniale und diasporische Bezugnahmen auf den Ozean wird dieser als flüssiges Archiv einer kolonialen Gewaltgeschichte verstanden. Mit Blick auf gegenwärtige medien- und kulturwissenschaftliche Diskussionen untersucht der Beitrag das Ozeanische als Auflösungsfigur einer terrestrischen Verunsicherung, die mit Fragen der Situierung und relationalen Positionierung einhergeht. Am Beispiel der zeitgenössischen Inszenierung Salt (2016) von Selina Thompson wird aufgezeigt, wie der Atlantik als Schauplatz der Gewalt zugleich diasporische und relationale Bezugnahmen zu Identität, Heimat und Ursprung eröffnet. In Erweiterung von Hartmans Ansatz wird Thompsons Performance als ein Modus der ozeanischen Fabulation beleuchtet.
Atlantic Passage and the Fugitive Text
Authors: Taylor Nathan
Published: July 2024

This essay intervenes in global histories of theory and exile modernism by developing fugitivity as a capacious lens for examining entangled histories of flight and artistic practice in the Atlantic world. I draw on theorist and poet Fred Moten’s theorization of the concept to foreground a missed encounter between fugitivity’s Antillean history and the communist writer Anna Seghers, whose escape from European fascism places her in a Martinique internment camp in 1941. After examining how fugitivity uneasily merges histories of Black struggle and art with a tradition of modernist antifascist writing, I proceed by closely reading Seghers’s novella on the Haitian revolution, Die Hochzeit von Haiti (1948). Seghers’s text, I argue, imagines fugitive struggle and marronage as a lawless, ‘deranged’ freedom. I show how the novella’s own historiographic and narrative framing redouble the efforts of its protagonists to regulate fugitive struggle via various forms of mastery, most notably: literacy.

Why Black Teachers Matter
Authors: Blazar David
Published: July 2024

Black teachers are critical resources for children and schools. In experimental data, I document large effects of Black upper-elementary teachers on the self-efficacy (0.9 SD) and classroom engagement (0.7 SD) of their Black but not non-Black students, potentially driven by role modeling. Black teachers also benefit the test scores (0.2 SD) and absences (over 20% decrease) of all students—no matter their race/ethnicity—that often persist years later in high school. Furthermore, Black teachers bring unique mindsets and practices to their work (differentiated instruction, growth mindset beliefs, well-organized classrooms) that mediate a moderate to large share of effects on student outcomes. These findings help bridge the quantitative race/ethnicity-matching literature with theoretical discussion and qualitative exploration on why Black teachers matter.
