Authors: Mehrotra Bhagyashree , Rai Neha , MR Rajani , Budhakar Aparna , Aggarwal Ritika , Agarbattiwala Raj Vinodkumar , Thomas Mona , Patole Sampada , Doshi Paresh 
Published: July 2024

Background
Parkinson disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by motor dysfunctions and nonmotor symptoms. Current treatments do not alter disease progression, highlighting the need for alternative therapies. Music, dance, and mindfulness meditation have shown the potential to improve symptoms and quality of life in patients with PD.

Objective
This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of dance or music and meditation on PD progression, cognitive functions, mood, behavior, and caregiver burden.

Methods
This study is a single-blinded, longitudinal, parallel, randomized controlled trial. The participants consist of 30 patients with mild to moderate PD residing in Mumbai, India, who can physically participate in the activities. The exclusion criteria include advanced PD, severe balance issues, age >80 years, and other movement disorders. Participants in the intervention group will engage in dance or music sessions and guided meditation thrice weekly for 6 months. The control group will continue their usual activities and medication. The primary outcome is the progression of PD symptoms, measured using the Unified Parkinson’s Disease Rating Scale I-III, and quality of life, measured using the Parkinson’s Disease Questionnaire-39. The secondary outcomes include cognitive functions (Mini-Mental State Examination), mood (Beck Depression Inventory and Parkinson Anxiety Scale), mobility (timed up and go and Berg Balance Test), behavioral disorders (Questionnaire for Impulsive-Compulsive Disorders in Parkinson’s Disease Rating Scale), and caregiver burden (Zarit Burden Interview and Parkinson’s Disease Questionnaire-Carer).

Results
Data collection was completed in February 2024, with 28 participants finishing the study (intervention group: n=15, 54% and control group: n=13, 46%). Data analysis is underway, with results expected to be published in December 2024.

Conclusions
This study aims to provide significant insights into the effectiveness of dance or music and meditation in improving the quality of life and slowing the progression of PD. The findings are anticipated to support using these nonpharmaceutical therapies as complementary approaches to managing PD.

PERKEMBANGAN MORAL DALAM PANDANGAN LAWRENCE KOHLBERG
Authors: Ibda Fatimah 
Published: July 2024

Lawrence Kohlberg berpandangan bahwa perkembangan moral pada masa kanak-kanak mengikuti kematangan kognisi. Perkembangan moral merupakan perkembangan yang berhubungan dengan bagaimana anak menalar (reasoning) atau memikirkan aturan untuk perilaku etis. Kohlberg menyusun perkembangan penalaran moral dalam tiga tahapan umum moralitas. Pertama, penalaran moral prakonvensional yaitu penalaran moral dikontrol oleh lingkungan eksternal. Kedua, penalaran moral konvensional yaitu penalaran moral dibuat berdasarkan standar figur otoritas yang sudah terinternalisasikan, dan ketiga, penalaran moral pasca konvensional yaitu seseorang sudah mengikuti prinsip moral internal dan dapat memutuskan di antara standar moral yang berlawanan.

Published: July 2024

The implementation of full day school really helps the school in maximizing practicum time for students. However, it is still found that worship facilities are inadequate, which of course affects the full day program at the school. This research was conducted to determine the planning of full day school in the religious formation of students at SMK Negeri 5 Telkom Banda Aceh. This research is field research using qualitative methods. The data collection techniques used were observation, interviews and documentation. The research subjects included curriculum representatives, PAI teachers and students. The results of this research show that full day school planning in the religious development of students at SMK Negeri 5 Telkom Banda Aceh includes (1) Planning in the dimensions of religious worship and practice which includes theoretical development of PAI subjects, extracurricular Koran reading, and midday prayers in congregation. (2) Planning in the dimensions of experience and consequences includes the development of PAI theory practice, academic and non-academic extracurriculars, and coaching to read the Al-Quran every day as well as the reading of Surah Yasin and Tausiah on Fridays. (3) Planning is carried out at the beginning of each semester in open deliberation involving all teaching and educational staff so that implementation in one semester can run effectively and efficiently as expected.
Audit Office Effectiveness and Efficiency

Published: July 2024

SUMMARY
Prior research suggests that audit offices charge fee premiums for delivering highly effective audits. However, effective audit offices may also be efficient, reducing costs incurred and resulting in savings being passed on to clients. This study documents a positive relation between the infrequency of Big-R restatements of financial statements across an audit office’s portfolio of publicly traded clients (which proxies for effectiveness) and lower audit fees (which proxies for efficiency), ceteris paribus. This finding, which is robust to tests of alternative explanations and a variety of measures and specifications, differs from conclusions in most prior studies that investigate the association between audit fees and perceived audit quality captured by metrics such as auditor industry specialization and office size. Overall, our results help inform investors and other stakeholders by providing evidence that contrasts with the conventional notion that higher audit fees necessarily reflect higher audit quality in the post-Sarbanes-Oxley Act era.

iXBRL Adoption and the Pricing of Audit Services
Authors: Cheng Xu , Masli Adi , Walton Stephanie , Wang Mengmeng , Zhang Yiyang 
Published: July 2024

ABSTRACT
This study examines how inline XBRL (iXBRL) mandatory adoption impacts audit fees. Although iXBRL can make financial reporting information accessible to a wide range of external stakeholders, the presentation format change should have no impact on audit pricing. However, audit firms note that presenting nonaudited XBRL metadata on top of audited financial statements could lead to an expectation gap where external stakeholders believe that the inline tags have been audited despite no procedures being required. We find that iXBRL adoption is associated with higher audit fees. Upon further examination, we find that the increase in audit fees reflects more of a risk premium being placed on iXBRL clients rather than increased audit effort, as audit quality does not necessarily improve following adoption. We provide timely information on how auditors respond to iXBRL adoption.

Peculiarities of desire to the growth of social capital of the individual in the regions of Russia
Authors: Barkova A. S. 
Published: July 2024

Among the factors that most strongly influence the social capital of an individual are the quantity and quality of social contacts, the availability of education and internal attitudes of an individual. A person with a large social capital is more decisive and readier for change, because he or she is confident in his or her own strength and ability to adapt to new living conditions. The article explores the issue of the relationship between the size of social capital and the location of an individual. The regions of the Russian Federation vary in the quality of life. There is also spatial and digital inequality between them, which is manifested in unequal income, as well as in different living conditions, climate, accessibility of modern technologies. Residents of each region have unequal opportunities to meet their everyday needs. An individual's desire to change the current order of things by moving to another region can be presented as an indicator of the amount of social capital. The more determined an individual is to change his reality, the more developed is his social capital. The assessment of desires and aspirations was carried out by analyzing the search activity of Internet users in different regions of Russia. Six leaders and six outsiders of the rating of Russian regions by quality of life were selected. Residents of the regions with the lowest quality of life are more interested in higher education than others. For them it is a real opportunity to move to another region and change their life position. Thus, there is a paradoxical situation: the worse conditions an individual life in, the better he or she develops social capital.
Understanding the essence of the “Big Game” by classics of the Russian school of geopolitics (beginning)
Authors: Elishev S. O. 
Published: July 2024

This article is devoted to understanding the essence of The Great Game – the policy of containing the development of Russia by Anglo-Saxon elites and powers, dating back more than two centuries, by the classics of the Russian school of geopolitics. The author of the article considers the geopolitical concepts of the founders of the civilizational approach and civilizational geopolitics – N.Ya. Danilevsky, K.N. Leontyev, representatives of pan-Slavism (R.A. Fadeev, I.I. Dusinsky), military-strategic direction (D.A. Milyutina, A.E. Vandama, A.E. Snesareva), Eurasia (P.E. N. Savitsky), Y.S. Kartsova, V.P. Semenova-Tyan-Shansky, P.N. Durnovo.The author emphasizes that the development of Russian geopolitical thought took place in the absence of a political order from the state, as well as political and economic elites to develop a geopolitical strategy for the development of Russia and the implementation of its foreign policy. Unfortunately, the author states, many ideas of the classics of the Russian school of geopolitics (in particular, in their understanding of the essence, content and dynamics of the Big Game) turned out to be unclaimed by the ruling circles and governments, among which there were many people, Anglophile orientation, promoting the ideas of allied relations with England, to the detriment of the national interests of Russia.At the same time, the author of the article notes, the understanding of the essence and features of the development of the events of the “Great Game” by representatives of the Russian school of geopolitics was largely carried out fragmentally, often in the aspect of analyzing the centuries-old civilizational confrontation between Russia and the Romano-German cultural and historical type (Western European great culture, civilization), and not purely continentalist concepts.Authors who comprehend the essence and significant events of the “Great Game” in their works include: representatives of Pan-Slavism – N.Ya. Danilevsky, I.I. Dusinsky, R.A. Fadeeva; representatives of the military-strategic direction – A.E. Snesarev and A.E. Vandam; Y.S. Kartsovo and P.N. Durnovo. The rest of the classics of the Russian school of geopolitics addressed this issue selectively, within the framework of other topics of interest to them.

Published: July 2024

Abstract
This survey is a part of a broader ethnobotanical research conducted amongst visitors of protected areas in Bulgaria. The aim of the present study was to find out which herbs are collected by the visitors. Two types of interviews were conducted – among visitors of the Shumen Plateau Nature Park and among users of social network Facebook. Only small proportion from both groups collected medicinal plants from the visited areas. On the other hand, their answers revealed the knowledge about the most used medicinal plants in Bulgaria. Notably, most of them specify, that they comply with legal requirements and that the collected herbs are for personal use only. There are some differences between two groups – a smaller proportion of the online group collected medicinal plants from natural habitats, but demonstrated a greatest knowledge than the visitors of the Shumen Plateau Nature Park. Reported medicinal plants by the respondents are widely distributed in Bulgaria. Two endangered species have been mentioned: Aesculus hippocastanum L. and Sideritis scardica Griseb. Four medicinal plants were cited from both groups: – Hypericum perforatum L., Thymus sp. div., Tilia tomentosa Moench and Rosa canina L. Results revealed also the major disadvantages of the online surveys – skewed respondents, as only people interested in using herbs participate in the survey.
A Physically Inspired Model for Estimating Clear-Sky Solar Irradiance
Authors: Goilean Anamaria-Giulia , Paulescu Eugenia , Paulescu Marius 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
The estimation of solar irradiance under clear sky conditions is still a research topic. Many times, accessible empirical models are applied in practice, even if more uncertainty is expected than in the case of complex models. This paper reports a class of innovative empirical models for estimating clear sky global solar irradiance. Although the models are of an empirical nature, the mathematical equations are inspired by the physics behind the radiative transfer in the atmosphere. The models are developed with high-quality data recorded on the Solar Platform of the West University of Timisoara, Romania. Considering the local character of the empirical models, the development process is described in detail so that it can be replicated in other locations. Having only deterministic quantities as input, the proposed models harmoniously combine the two key requirements for practical applications: accessibility and accuracy.
Creativity Unlocked and Locked Down: Different Creative Activities Differently Affected by Restrained Social Interactions During the COVID-19 Pandemic
Authors: Form Sven 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
Both social interaction and the lack thereof have been discussed as being beneficial for creativity. Strikingly, in both cases there seems to be an implicit assumption that different creative activities are all influenced in the same way. However, the idea that different creative behaviors are all equally influenced by social interaction seems not reasonable (e.g., poem writing vs. singing a song at a family celebration). The reduction in social contacts in Germany during the coronavirus pandemic offered a unique opportunity for a field experiment with high ecological validity. To explore how different creative activities are each influenced by reduced social interaction, 130 participants were asked in an online survey using a proxy pretest design about the frequency of everyday creative activities before and during the core episode of social distancing. The change in frequency for performing a given creative activity depended on the frequency at baseline, but not in a linear manner. Instead, the relationship was u-shaped: creative activities most frequently performed at baseline showed an increase in frequency, creative activities of medium frequency at baseline decreased, and the least frequent activities changed the least. In particular, activities represented by “Personal Environment Creativity” increased in frequency, while activities represented by “Self-Expressive Creativity” decreased in frequency during lockdown. Recalling the four p’s of creativity, it is accepted that the person aspect differs between domains. It is therefore surprising that we commonly assume press-level features work the same way across all domains, which is challenged by the current study.
“The evolution of the religious discourse in the pages of the journal Calendarul “Bunului creştin” from Sibiu between the years 1944-1949”
Authors: Nedelcu Silviu-Constantin 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
The present study aims to analyze the evolution of religious discourse in the pages of the journal Calendarul “Bunului creştin” published at Sibiu between the years 1944-1949. The speech is a deeply anti-communist one where the idea of national unity, of preserving the Orthodox Christian faith, defending the values of the nation (homeland, family) and obeying the orders of the King, the Head of State and other rulers is supported. The predominant news of the war is a sad reality: the deportations of Moldovan peasants from Transnistria to Siberia and their joy, and that of the Russian people, at the liberation by the Romanian Christian armies. The fact that in this periodical, which appeared with the blessing of Metropolitan Nicolae of Transylvania, indirectly shows his position on communism and war.
Alterity Ethics – Levinas
Authors: Cîmpean Daniela 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
According to the French phenomenologist Emmanuel Levinas, ethics – not ontology – is “the first philosophy”. In the following Article, we will reconstruct the Levinasian ethics from the perspective of the primacy of alterity, arguing that this focus on the Other may also have consequences for business ethics. The distinction between the Same (Le Même) and the Other (L’Autre) helps the French thinker to surpass a solipsistic ontology (from Plato to Heidegger) and to get to the definition of the absolute radicality of the Other. The Other of Levi-nas, the “Stranger in his strangeness,” irreducible to Me, receives the face of the “disadvantaged” (poor, widow, orphan, refugee, beggar, etc.), whom I must greet. Ethics can be summed up in the concept of “Being-for-the-Other” (the co-rigid opening of otherness to ipseity) or, in other words, “my goodness” (according to Platonic philosophy, which showed that Good transcends both Essence and Being). The Heideggerian phenomenology of death is transcended by Levinas under the influence of the ethics of otherness from Martin Buber’s I and Thou. Levinas claimed that the “death of the Other” is the “first death” starting from the biblical commandment “Thou shall not kill.”
Comparative Determinations of Some Figurines from Predynastic Egypt
Authors: Stănese Radu 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
Archaeological discoveries of the late 19th and early 20th centuries have brought to researchers attention a series of sites that indicates two civilizations, apparently unconnected to the dynastic periods of ancient Egypt. The collections of anthropomorphic figurines of the Badari and Naqada cultures offer the possibility of comparative anthropometric measurements, which highlight the evolution and diffusion process, as well as of new meanings for the archetypal corporeality that made figurines possible. The presence of the same golden disproportion in representations from both cultures and the optimization of Naqada anthropometric proportions over the centuries foreshadows the aesthetic norms of the dynastic period.
Digitalization in Social Media: Changing Connections, Communications, and Banking Systems in the Era of the Internet
Authors: Grozea Ioana-Luciana 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
This article explores the significant impact that social media has had on relationships, communication methods, and various industries. The development of social media platforms has brought about an important change in the standards and laws that influence interpersonal communication and workplace interactions. This study explores the fundamental concepts that underpin social media, such as popularity, connectivity, programmability, and information transmission. The statement points out the similarity between social networking platforms and traditional media while demonstrating how prevalent they are in the public sphere. Furthermore, the abstract analyses the significance of online platforms in the financial sector. In the context of digital transformation, financial institutions have acknowledged the potential of social media as a tool for customer service and generating revenue. Financial institutions utilize social media platforms to expand their reach and improve their ability to connect with a wider audience, thereby increasing accessibility to their clientele. The trend of digitization has forced financial institutions to reevaluate their approaches, conform to the inclinations of their customers, and function within the realm of the internet. Through the utilization of social media, financial institutions may improve their knowledge of customers, advertise their offerings, and establish a dynamic discourse with their customers.
Urban Space and Memory Space in Guillermo Cabrera Infante’s Fiction
Authors: Grigore Rodica 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
Guillermo Cabrera Infante’s masterpiece Three Trapped Tigers (1965) ignores all details of traditional chronology and should be interpreted as an exquisite artistic form of Latin American “neo-baroque” which characterizes its Cuban author’s style. Havana, the capital and the center of interest within this book, thus becomes an intricate labyrinth which expresses the complexity of human life in a given political and social context, but also illustrates the textual choice of a unique writer determined to ignore all previous patterns of literary representation and expression. The metaphor of “the lost city” goes through the text and influences all the characters’ choices and attitudes (including sometimes their self-imposed exile), expressing the quintessence of a way of life that would completely disappear after the Cuban Revolution.
The Effectiveness and Limitations of Artificial Intelligence in Journalism
Authors: Cardaş-Răduţa Dan-Laurenţiu 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
This article looks at three directions in which artificial intelligence is developing in journalism: automated journalism, AI-generated news anchors and AI-based fake news detection. How effective is artificial intelligence when it comes to news reporting? How does a robot present a news story? How does AI distinguish fake news from real news. These are some of the questions on which I have built this article. The research results show that although artificial intelligence has been strongly introduced in major newsrooms and often outperforms the human factor, the human journalist is still indispensable. This is due to the limitations of artificial intelligence to fully understand natural human language, but also due to its inability to deeply analyse everyday events.
