Making Meaningful Connections and Relationships in Cataloguing Practices: The Decolonizing Description Project at University of Alberta Libraries
Authors: Laroque Sheila 
Published: December 2018

Overview
This paper seeks to examine some of the history behind the work that led to the Decolonizing Description Working Group (DDWG) and the efforts that have come from the further Decolonizing Description Project at the University of Alberta Libraries (UAL). Within universities and a variety of memory institutions, there has been a shift since the Calls to Action of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) report (2015). This paper seeks to give those who are interested in this type of work some insight into the processes that have been underway at the UAL, and into ways that this could be replicated within their own institutions.
Religious Studies Scholarship is Not Widely Available via Open Access, but Some Authors Share Their Work through Institutional Repositories or Social Networking Sites
Authors: Sullo Elaine 
Published: December 2018

A Review of:
Avery, J. M. (2018). The open access availability of articles from highly ranked religious studies journals: A study of ten journals. Theological Librarianship, 11(1), 12-17. Retrieved from https://theolib.atla.com/theolib/index
Abstract
Objective – To examine the current state of open access scholarship among the most highly rated religious studies journals.
Design – Quantitative analysis.
Setting – Research articles published in 2014, in the ten most highly rated religious studies journals.
Subjects – 377 peer-reviewed articles.
Methods – Using the SCImago Journal & Country Rank, the researcher identified the top ten most cited religious studies journals from mid-2015. Articles published in these journals during 2014 were evaluated. The researcher identified 377 research articles through online databases and journal websites. The researcher then used both Google and Google Scholar to search for these articles using titles and authors. If the article was not found, other search strategies were employed, such as the use of additional search terms, limits, and quotes, as well as other search engines.
Main Results – Open access (OA) versions were found for 132 of the 377 articles (35%), and the percent of OA articles by journal ranged from 5% to 100%. The researcher found 70 OA articles in institutional repositories (53%), 70 in Academia.edu or ResearchGate.net (53%), 19 from organizational websites (14.4%), 13 on personal websites (9.8%), and 4 on other sites (3%). The researcher found 44 articles in more than one location (33.3%). Of the 132 OA articles found, 87 (65.9%) were found by both Google and Google Scholar, and 43 (32.6%) articles were found by either Google or Google Scholar, but not both.
Conclusion – Overall, the research results reveal that finding OA content can be done via Google and Google Scholar. While articles in religious studies journals are not typically accessible through OA, authors who tend to publish in these journals who support OA may use institutional repositories or social networking sites to make their work available.

Published: December 2018

Background:Coronary heart disease is the most common cardiovascular disorder, while atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common heart arrhythmia.Aim:To perform a comparative analysis of the coronary substrate assessed by coronary angiography in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) in combination with various AF types, as well as to analyze abnormal electrocardiographic findings and blood troponin levels in patients with ACS and AF versus ACS patients with sinus rhythm.Materials and methods:We retrospectively analyzed medical files 13,244 ACS patients entered into the total ACS registry in the Krasnodar Region from 20.11.2015 to 20.11.2017. In 1204 (9%) of them ACS was associated with AF (ACS + AF group, n = 119), the remaining 12 040 (91%) patients had sinus rhythm (ASC + SR group, n = 120).Results:Compared to the ACS + SR group, the troponin levels were significantly (р ≤ 0,05) higher in the ACS + AF group. No statistically significant diﬀerences between two groups were found for localization of hemodynamically significant coronary stenoses at coronary angiography. Only 25.0% (p = 0.1689) of patients with ACS + AF without ischemic electrocardiographic changes (ST depression or elevation) had no hemodynamically signifcant coronary stenoses at coronary angiography.Conclusion:AF in ACS patients is an important factor in the course of the disease and is characterized by higher blood troponin levels and significantly more frequent absence of ischemia-related electrocardiographic changes, compared to the ACS patients with sinus rhythm.
Multi-objective green supply chain network optimization
Authors: Ene Seval , Ozturk Nursel 
Published: December 2018

In supply chain management, economical objectives have traditionally guided decisions of the supply chains. However, with increased global environmental and social concerns, in recent years, green aspects have been incorporated in supply chain decisions. These expansions lead to new research areas about green or sustainable supply chain management that includes applying various green practices in order to reduce negative impact on the environment or providing sustainable development. The purpose of this study is to develop a multi-objective optimization model for determining network design of the green supply chains. In multi-objective frame of the proposed model, total profit maximization and environmental impact minimization objectives are considered in order to obtain best network configuration for economic and environmental performance of the green chain. The proposed model is validated with numerical experiments. Obtained results showed that the model can be used as a strategic decision tool in problems with multi and conflicting objectives.
Keywords: green supply chain management, multi-objective modelling, network optimization.
Identification and classification of environmental reporting factors on the example of the Polish energy sector
Authors: Ferens Aleksandra , Filus Marzena Strojek 
Published: December 2018

Business entities reporting information on the impact of their activities on the environment is still a disordered area in terms of both the legislation and the so-called good business practice. There is a large variation in the scope and manner of disclosing environmental information by business entities of the European Union Member States and other countries. This particular issue concerns countries where the energy sector is primarily based on hard coal and lignite extraction industries. Poland is such a country. The scale of this problem, confirmed in numerous studies, raises the question of the factors that influence environmental reporting.

Volatility forecast with artificial neural networks as univariate time series, with examples from stock market indexes
Authors: Uysal Fahriye , Erturan Burak 
Published: December 2018

The tools that are offered to investors in financial markets are fluctuating. As this fluctuation causes losses as well as earnings, it is characterised as a risk for the investor. Especially, fluctuations that may occur in globally important markets and financial instruments have great significance, not just for investor but also for the global economy. Volatility, as a measure of fluctuations taking place in markets, is often used particularly by investors and all economic actors. Therefore, in recent years, future volatility predictions have gained importance. The aim of this research is forecasting future volatility values using the historical data of S&P 500, FTSE 100 and NIKKEI 225 stock market indexes. The progress of historical volatility values in years is presented and generated univariate time series is modelled with artificial neural networks. Future forecasts are done with the obtained model and results are interpreted.
Keywords: Artificial neural networks, volatility, time series analysis, stock market indexes.
Learning framework using social media networks
Authors: Bektas Cetin , Fayad Rima 
Published: December 2018

Social media networks are being used heavily by people from different social, economic, and educational backgrounds all over the world. University, college, and high-school students constitute a main faction of social media network users. In this study, a framework for student learning using social media network environment is developed. The framework is founded in the self-determination theory (SDT). The self-determination theory is one of the important theories of motivation and personality. Its focus is geared towards both intrinsic and extrinsic motivation issues. It addresses three universal innate and psychological needs: competence, autonomy, and psychological relatedness. A person’s social environment necessitates caring for these three needs in order for the person to actualize their potential, function and grow optimally. In addition to creating the social environment that caters for students’ psychological needs, for a new framework of learning using social media to be successfully adopted by students it needs to address their cognitive, emotional and contextual interests. Towards this end, this study explores and founds the conceptual grounds of a social media learning framework.

Keywords: Social media network, learning, self-determination theory, motivation, competence, autonomy, relatedness.
The concept of gatekeeping in information science: A philosophical reflection
Authors: ALBAR ALI AIDROOS 
Published: December 2018

The gatekeeping phenomenon has been studied in varied fields, and it has been applied with different meanings and purposes. The concept was coined in 1947 by Kurt Lewin to study food habits. He described housewives as gatekeepers who decide what food is appropriate, thus, led to the concept that gatekeepers control and effect members’ decision. This phenomenon attracted researchers from otherfields. In 1977, Thomas Allen was the first scientist from the information science field to investigate the information flow in R&D labs. He described gatekeepers and established their characteristics. The purpose of this paper is to review the concept in current literature.The paper represents significant find in gsto prove the importance of gatekeeping in diverse contexts such as medical and business fields. This philosophical review gives a broad understanding of the concept that may open new routes for future studies and optimistically add value tothefield of information science.

Authors: Yazdani Ayza , Zadeh Zainab , Shafi Khalida 
Published: December 2018

Abstract

The present study evaluates the back translation in Urdu and factor structure of Impact of Event Scale-Revised. The scale was administered to 446 adolescents in Pakistan with modifications to the time frame. Indirect traumatic exposure had occurred over six months to 2 years ago. Cronbach alpha coefficients of .78 for Intrusion subscale, .74 for Avoidance subscale and .66 for Hyperarousal subscales; and .88 for total scale scores are reported. Principal component analysis revealed a 3-factor solution explaining 45 % of the variance; factor structure was not similar to the proposed theoretical structure of IES-R. Endemic characteristics and cultural setup of the country highlight need to understand development and expression of trauma in the cultural milieu and direct future research for intervention strategies in schools.
Keywords: Indirect exposure, trauma, adolescents, factor structure.
TWO-DIMENSIONAL DISTRIBUTION OF SALINITY IN IRRIGATED SOILS NEAR THE IRRIGATION CHANNEL AT THE PLOT "CHERVLENOE" OF THE SVETLOYAR IRRIGATION SYSTEM
Authors: Kravchenko E. I. , Khitrov N. B. , Gorokhova I. N. 
Published: December 2018

The current state of irrigated soils’ salinity at the key plot located along the buried irrigation channel within the irrigated plot Chervlenoye of the Svetloyar Irrigation System (Volgograd Region) was studied. In the 1990-s a strong sec-ondary soil salinization was detected during the aerial survey. Its boundaries were clearly observed on the image. After the irrigation had been ceased, a par-tial soluble salts leaching from the soil took place at the key plot as a result of precipitation and decrease of the groundwater table. Basing on the field data obtained in 2017 a model of two-dimensional distribution (depth, distance from the irrigation channel) of the ion activity (Ca2+, Cl–, Na+) was created. It was found that sulfate-chloride-sodium type of salinization prevails which is typical for natural soils at the studied territory. However, the traces of secondary sali-nization expressed by the presence of calcium chloride in soil solution are pre-served in a number of soil horizons. According to the depth of the upper saline horizon, the soils belong to solonchakous type, the distribution of salts is medi-ocre-accumulative, maximum of salts is located at a depth of 100–150 cm.
Profil Hematologi Ayam Pedaging yang Diberi Ransum Mengandung Asam Laurat dan Pinang Yaki Sebagai Sumber Antioksidan Alami (HAEMATOLOGY PROFILE OF BROILER FED LAURIC ACID AND ARECA VESTIARIA GISEKE AS A SOURCE OF NATURAL ANTIOXIDANT)

Published: December 2018

The objectives of the present study were to investigate the effect of dietary coconut oil as a source of lauric acid and Areca vestiaria Giseke (AV) as a natural antioxidant source on some haematological profile. Two hundred and forty (240) day-old unsexed Lohmann broiler chicks (MB-202 P) were divided into twenty four experimental units (ten chicks per unit) and arranged in a completely randomized design with a 2 x 4 factorial arrangement. Each experimental unit was repeated 3 times each with ten chicks. The first factor was the source of lauric acid in the ration consisted of 2 levels i.e., coconut oil and pure lauric acid. The second factor was dose of antioxidant consisted of 4 levels i.e., 0 (without antioxidant [AV and lauric acid] supplementation), AV at a dose of 625 mg kg-1 ration, AV at a dose of 1250 mg kg-1 ration, and tocopherol at a dose of 200 ppm). Blood sampling were collected from chicken at the end of experiment period (age 35 days). Total number of erythrocyte and leukocyte, Hb, PCV, together with absolute count of deferentiation of leukocyte were determined. General linear model and Tukey test were used for statistical analysis of the result. Blood sampling were collected from chicken at the end of experiment period (age 35 days). Total number of erythrocyte and leukocyte, Hb, PCV, together with absolute count of deferentiation of leukocyte were determined. General linear model and Tukey test were used for statistical analysis of the result. The study showed that source of lauric acid, antioxidant concentration and its interaction gave the same effect (P>0.05) to the erythrocytes, leucocytes, Hb, PCV, MCH, MCHC, and monocyte percentage of the broiler. The MCV in chickens consuming pure lauric acid was significantly higher than that of coconut oil. MCV values in chickens that received antioxidant AV at a dose of 625 mg kg-1 were significantly higher (P<0.05) than the others. The source of lauric acid was significant (P<0.01) affecting the percentage of lymphocytes and eosinophils, whereas the concentrations of antioxidants significantly affected the percentage of lymphocytes and heterophils, as well as the apparent effect (P<0.05) indicated by the eosinophil and basophil percentages.. The results of this study indicate that the use of lauric acid and concentration of antioxidant AV in the ration does not change the health status of broiler.
Dentists and What They Do by L. Slegers
Authors: Crichton Madeline C. 
Published: December 2018

Slegers, Liesbet. Dentists and What They Do. Clavis Publishing Inc., 2017.
Intended to be read by parents with their toddlers, Dentists and What They Do is a fun, highly informative guide to a first visit to the dentist's office. Brightly-coloured images and diagrams occupy portions of every page of the story. These minimalist drawings are annotated with rhythmic phrases such as “shine, shine” for a mirror or “how funny!” for a dentist’s mask, making the book entertaining to read. Whereas the text of the story itself is small, the images are labelled in a larger font, and are therefore intended to be read by young children, introducing a variety of vocabulary. Further, Slegers accommodates for any fears that young children may have before their first visit to the dentist by demonstrating ways in which medical professionals act to entertain and accommodate children. For example, the dentist checks the teeth of a stuffed animal.
Overall, Dentist’s and What They Do is delightful, easy to read, and likely to be enjoyed even by older children because of its engaging format. In its demystification of the first trips to the dentist, the book is an excellent way to introduce normal checkups and appointments to young children and is effective in making the process entertaining.
