The present study aimed to assess the effectiveness of a multicomponent cognitive training using training of executive functions, attention, memory and visuospatial functions (TEAM-V) Program on cognition, mood and instrumental activities of daily living (IADL) among healthy older adults living in community. Using a single-blinded randomized controlled design, 80 participants were randomized to the TEAM-V or control group. The TEAM-V intervention was conducted for 5 sessions, with 2-week intervals between each session. The Thai version of the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA), the Alzheimer’s Disease Assessment Scale-Cognitive Subscale (ADAS-cog), the Thai version of the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) and the Chula ADL were used to assess at baseline and 6 months. Participants receiving the TEAM-V Program were associated with significant improvement in MoCA (P=0.03), word recall task (P=0.01) and word recognition task (P=0.01) scores (subtests of ADAS-cog) versus the control. Both anxiety and depression scores decreased in the intervention group (mean + SD: -0.20±2.15 and -0.43±2.17, respectively). In contrast, both anxiety and depression scores increased in the control group (mean + SD: 0.59±1.98 and 0.76±2.17, respectively). IADL scores increased in the intervention group but not in the control group (mean + SD: 0.13±0.61 and -0.05±0.33, respectively). The TEAM-V Program helped to improve global cognitive function, memory, reduce anxious and depressive symptoms and enhance IADL among healthy older people.

The Status of Technological Knowledge in the Scientific Mosaic
Authors: Mirkin Maxim 
Published: February 2019

In this paper, I argue that there is accepted propositional technological knowledge which appears to exhibit the same patterns of change as questions, theories, and methods in the natural, social, and formal sciences. I show that technological theories attempting to describe the construction and operation of artifacts as well as to prescribe their correct mode of operation are not merely used, but also often accepted by epistemic agents. Since technology often involves methods different from those found in science and produces normative propositions, many of which remain tacit, one may be tempted to think that changes in technological knowledge should be somehow exempt from the laws of scientific change. Indeed, it seems tacitly accepted in the scientonomic community that, while scientific communities clearly accept theories, technological communities merely use them. As a result, scientonomy currently deals with natural, social, and formal sciences, and the status of technological knowledge within the scientonomic ontology remains unclear. To help elucidate the topic, I propose that the historical cases of sorting algorithms, telescopes, crop rotation, and colorectal cancer surgeries confirm that technological theories and methods are often an integral part of an epistemic agent’s mosaic and seem to exhibit the same scientonomic patterns of change typical of accepted theories therein. Thus, I suggest that propositional technological knowledge can be part of a mosaic.

Suggested Modifications
[Sciento-2018-0011]: Accept the three-fold distinction between explicit, explicable-implicit, and inexplicable with the following definitions:

Explicit ≡ propositional knowledge that has been openly formulated by the agent.
Explicable-Implicit ≡ propositional knowledge that hasn’t been openly formulated by the agent.
Inexplicable ≡ non-propositional knowledge, i.e. knowledge that cannot, even in principle, be formulated as a set of propositions.

Also accept the following definition of implicit:

Implicit ≡ not explicit.

[Sciento-2018-0012]: Accept that propositional technological knowledge – i.e. technological questions, theories, and methods – can be part of a mosaic.
Also accept the following questions as legitimate topics of scientonomic inquiry:

History of Technological Mosaics: What technological theories were accepted and what technological methods were employed by different epistemic agents at different time periods?
The Status of Inexplicable Knowledge: Is there such a thing as inexplicable knowledge?
Typology of Technological Knowledge: What types of technological knowledge are there?

Music Creation Based on Folklore
Authors: Ginting Peterus 
Published: February 2019

This paper discusses the model of music creation compositions that departs from the folklore of Senggulat Mbacang owned by Karoness in North Sumatra. This folklore e is commonly referred to as Turi-turin Culture by Karoness. Selanggulat Mbacang, Turi-turian Culture is very popular among Karoness. This folklore is usually delivered orally and is very musical in nature. Sengulat Mbacang, Turi-turian culture has a slice of mbacang fruit or mango fruit. Senggulat mbacang, Turi-turian has a very strong impression in representing the social reality of the life of Karoness. This is a compelling reason for composers to reinterpret this folklore through the composition of music with the title Senggulat Mbacang. Trying to explore Karo culture, traditional elements and other musical elements, trying to the folklore through musical activities. Presenting and reinterpreting folklore that is usually done orally becomes a whole musical composition without losing the core of the original meaning or meaning of the story.

Authors: Tiwari MR , Jha PK , Pant SR , Acharya MP , Thapa P , Shrestha BK 
Published: February 2019

Bypass protein is known to stimulate the voluntary feed intake, increase quality milk production and thereby improve economic status from dairy cows farming. This study was conducted to compare the responses of additional bypass protein as feed supplement on milk production performance in Jersey dairy cows, and its cost benefits per L of milk production. A total of 12 lactating Jersey dairy cows, apparently having similar reproductive and productive performances were selected. The cows were randomly grouped into 3 treatments groups; T1 (Control): 6 kg concentrate mixture, T2: 6 kg concentrate mixture plus 1.5 kg heat-treated soybean cake, and T3: 6 kg concentrate mixture plus 1.5 kg formalin treated soybean cake. An acclimatization period of 7 days, the experimental procedure was carried for the period of 62 days. Other management; feeding - adlib amount of straw and green grass such as oat, signal and local grass once a day, natural grazing average 3 hrs/ day), watering and housing remained as routinely done by the farm. The compound feed was procured from Fine Feeds Industries Pvt. Ltd., Chitwan, Nepal. Feed intake and milk production of individual animal was recorded daily. The straw and concentrate intake of experimental cows among the treatment groups differed significantly (P<0.001), whereas green grass intake among the diet groups differed insignificantly. The initial recorded milk production 5.4 L, 5.45 L and 5.62 L among the treatment groups found insignificant, whereas the final milk production 7.85 L, 6.12 L and 5.82 L among the treatment groups found highly significant (P<0.001). The economic analysis (its cost benefits per L of milk production) during the period of 62 days of experimentation, it was revealed that feeding package T2 is more beneficial than T3. The net income accounted for NRs 12152.11 and NRs 7457. 55 using T2 and T3 feeding package, respectively. Therefore, it is suggested that heat-treated soybean cake supplementation to early lactating (up to 3 months) dairy cows is one of the option to increase milk production and income of farmers. Further study needed to be carried out to ascertain the optimum level and duration of additional protein supplementation to dairy cows.

Authors: Saba NA , Hashem MA , Azad MAK , Hossain MA , Khan M 
Published: February 2019

The experiment was conducted to find out the effect of different levels of bottle gourd leaf extraction on beef meatballs. Ground beef samples were divided into four treatment groups having bottle gourd leaf extracts as control T1 (0%), T2 (1%), T3 (2%), T4 (3%). Proximate analysis, sensory tests (color, flavor, tenderness, juiciness, and overall acceptability), cooking loss, pH value, free fatty acids (FFA), thiobarbituric acid values (TBARS), peroxide value (POV) and microbiological examination were determined. Days of intervals of experiment were 0, 15th, 30th and 45th days. Data were analyzed using SAS Statistical software. DM content of all the treatment groups differ significantly (p<0.05). In contrast, DM content increased significantly (p<0.05) with the advancement of different days of intervals. The CP and EE content at different treatment levels differ significantly (p<0.05). The FFA, TBARs, POV values were decreased significantly (p<0.05). The color, flavor, tenderness, juiciness, overall acceptability, raw and cooked pH were increased at different treatment levels significantly (p<0.05). The cooking loss (%) with the advancement of days of intervals were differ significantly (p<0.05). TCC (log CFU/g) and TYMC (log CFU/g) were decreased significantly (p<0.05) at different treatment levels. Parameters studied showed that, 2% bottle gourd leaf extract added meat balls were the best quality, so it may be concluded that 2% bottle gourd leaf extract can be used in beef meatball as a source of antioxidant and antimicrobial agent to increase shelf-life of meatballs.

Abstrak

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui keterlibatan perempuan dalam organisasi kemahasiswaan yang meliputi BEM, LDK, GONG dan organisasi jurusan HMPS, dimana bahwa akses keterlibatan perempuan dalam pengambilan keputusan dalam organisasi, diantaranya kesempatan memperoleh kedudukan terpenting dalam organisasi seperti ketua ataupun wakil ketua. Penelitian ini adalah penelitian deskriptif kualitatif dengan pendekatan studi analisis fenomena atau fakta, penentuan informan dengan carapurposive sampling atau sampel bertujuan dengan memilih informan berdasarkan kriteria tertentu. Dalam penggalian data digunakan teknik wawancara mendalam, lalu didisplay, diferikasi lalu menguji keabsahan data, kemudian kesimpulan. Penelitian menunjukkan bahwa dalam wacana gender terlihat perempuan belum dilibatkan sepenuhnya dalam organisasi kemahasiswaan, terbukti sepanjang sejarahnya sejak masuknya organisasi kemahasiswaan di STKIP Bima, perempuan tidak pernah menduduki jabatan terpenting seperti ketua BEM, ketua LDK, ketua MAPALA, ketua Gong, bahkan ketua HMPS jurusan, perempuan hanya dilibatkan dalam akses pemberian suara saat pemilihan kepengurusan. Ini berarti kesetaraan gender dalam organisasi kemahasiswaan belum terlihat keterlibatannya seperti laki-laki. Begitu juga halnya dalam praktek keseharian menunjukkan bahwa dalam kegiatan prakteknya perempuan masih sering ditempatkan pada hal-hal yang bersifat konsumsi dan pelayanan.
