Published: April 2024

Background
The role of parents in supporting early intervention for young children with disabilities is critical. Indeed, models of family centered care (FCC), which emphasis strong partnerships between health professionals and families in disability health services delivery are now widely associated with best practice. While FCC is consistently argued to be an appropriate model for disability service delivery, its utilization is limited primarily to Western countries such as Australia and the United States. Countries such as the United Arab Emirates (UAE) have prioritized early childhood development and are thus in search of best practices for delivery of early intervention for children and their families.

Objective
The aim of this study was to explore the appropriateness of the FCC model in disability service delivery in the UAE. This study was conducted from the perspectives of health professionals who are involved in disability diagnosis, referral and ongoing support for families and children with disabilities.

Method
A total of 150 health professionals were recruited from health facilities, rehabilitation centers and schools in the Emirates of Abu Dhabi. The 27-item Measure of Process of Care for Service Providers (MPOC-SP) was used for data collection. The data were subjected to confirmatory factor analysis to confirm applicability of the model to this context. Multivariate analysis of variance and moderation analysis were also conducted, to ascertain the relationship between participants’ satisfaction levels with their ability to diagnose, refer and provide on-going support and their likelihood of practicing key components of FCC.

Result
Computation of confirmatory factor analysis provided support for applicability of the MPOC-SP in the UAE context. Further inspection showed moderate to large correlations between the four components of FCC measured by MPOC-SP, providing further support for utilization of FCC in disability health service delivery in the UAE.

Conclusion
The study concludes with a call to policymakers in the UAE to consider developing disability health policy based on key components of FCC. This could be supplemented by development of training modules on FCC to upskill health professionals involved in disability diagnosis and rehabilitation.

Published: April 2024

Introduction
While there have been several studies examining the understanding and quality of informed consent in clinical trials of cancer therapies, there is limited empirical research on health practitioners’ experiences on the informed consent process in cancer care, especially from low resource settings. This study explored health professionals’ perspectives on information disclosure during the consenting process in cancer care.

Methods
A qualitative descriptive approach was used to collect data. Face to face interviews were conducted with 10 purposively selected healthcare professionals who were actively involved in soliciting informed consent at a cancer treatment centre in Uganda. A thematic approach was used to interpret the results.

Results
There were five key themes, and these included information disclosure to patients; assessment of patients’ cancer awareness, treatment preferences and expectations; informed consent practices; barriers to optimal informed consent and information disclosure; and recommendations for improving the consenting process. All respondents appreciated the value of disclosing accurate information to patients to facilitate informed decision making. However, the informed consent process was deemed sub-optimal. Respondents asserted that patients should be the psychological wellbeing of patients should be protected by mentally preparing them before disclosing potentially distressing information. All healthcare professionals were appreciative of the central role the family plays in the consenting process.

Conclusion
Overall, informed consent practices were not ideal because of the several challenges. Inadequate time is devoted to information disclosure and patient education; there is lack of privacy; and informed consent documentation is poor. There is a need for significant improvement in informed consent practices and healthcare professional-patient communication.
Mesoscale mechanics investigation of multi-component solid propellant systems
Authors: Zhang Lipeng , Chen Chen , Tang Xianqiong , Zhou Xing 
Published: April 2024

Abstract
To enhance the mechanical properties of the Nitrate Ester Plasticized Polyether solid propellant matrix, the uniaxial tension of multi-component systems is simulated and the factors influencing the mechanical properties of the propellant matrix are investigated. First, mesoscale models of five types of systems include poly alpha olefin (PAO(3)), polyethylene glycol (PEG200, PEG400, PEG600), and 1,4-butanediol (BDO) are established, followed by uniaxial tensile simulations. The results show PEG600, PEG400, PEG200, BDO, and PAO(3) in order of enhancing the mechanical performance of the matrix. Second, the diffusion behavior of nitroglycerin (NG) and butanetriol trinitrate (BTTN) in various systems is investigated. The results show that NG exhibits higher diffusion capacity than BTTN, and the diffusion coefficient increases with an increment in the molecular weight of PEG. Additionally, the influence of different plasticizer ratios (2.8–3.0), curing parameters (1.58–1.62), and chain extension parameters (0.08–0.10) on the mechanical properties of the PEG600 system are investigated. The results demonstrate that as the plasticizer ratio increases, there is a gradual decrease in the modulus of the matrix. Additionally, an increase in the curing parameter leads to a substantial enhancement in the tensile strength of the matrix, while increasing the chain extension parameter significantly expands the maximum tensile length of the matrix. Finally, employing the Slip-Spring model, the effects of the physical and chemical cross-linked network of the propellant are simulated. The result shows that increasing the content of a chemical cross-linked network significantly improves the tensile strength of the matrix.

Abstract
In 2004, Thakur introduced a positive characteristic analogue of multizeta values.
Later, in 2017, he mentioned the two colored variants which are positive characteristic analogues of colored multizeta values in his survey of multizeta values in positive characteristic.
In this paper, we study one of those two variants.
We establish their fundamental properties, that include their non-vanishing,
sum-shuffle relations, 𝑡-motivic interpretation and linear independence.
For the linear independence results, we prove that there are no nontrivial

Published: April 2024

Abstract

Objectives
To develop and validate a questionnaire on satisfaction with clinical practice for mentors (QSCP-M) and a questionnaire on satisfaction with clinical practice for students (QSCP-S).

Methods
Two versions of the questionnaires were constructed: a version for mentors and a version for students. Both surveys were conducted at two time points. The first survey was completed by 252 students and 86 mentors, and the second by 291 students and 94 mentors.

Results
Several exploratory factor analyses were performed on the results obtained, and two factors were identified for the QSCP-M and one factor for the QSCP-S. The coefficients of internal reliability for both questionnaires indicated stable and reliable measuring instruments.

Conclusions
Clinical practice satisfaction questionnaires for mentors and students showed good metric characteristics. The validation shows that both questionnaires are appropriate for examining general and specific satisfaction with clinical practice.

HWWI Commodity Price Index: A Technical Documentation of the 2023 Revision
Authors: Berlemann Michael , Eurich Marina , Meyer Hennes 
Published: April 2024

Abstract
The HWWI Commodity Price Index, which aims at reflecting price developments of raw materials imported by highly industrialized countries, dates back to the 1950s. This paper explains the calculation of the index at the example of its latest revision, which became effective on 1st September 2023. While the index and its subindices are still calculated for OECD and European Momentary Union countries at four different frequencies (annual, monthly, quarterly and daily) for two different currencies (USD, EUR), it now additionally includes index values for several weighting periods (long-term: 2012–2021, pre-crisis: 2017–2019 and crisis years: 2020–2021), for individual countries and for different perspectives (daily revised, real-time and historical time series). The paper also provides detailed information on the employed methodology and the input data (commodities, import data, prices) used to calculate the weights and the index values. Although the revision is not without effect on the resulting index values, especially throughout the crises periods, the correlation between the initial and the revised index remains very high.
Exposure and preparedness for wartime inflation in the EU: Retrospective cluster analysis
Authors: Czeczeli Vivien , Kolozsi Pál Péter , Kutasi Gábor , Marton Ádám 
Published: April 2024

AbstractThe impact of the Russian-Ukrainian war on energy prices contributed significantly to European price increases in 2022. The study aims to find a linkage between the performance of 24 EU countries during the energy inflation crisis and their preparedness, vulnerability or exposure. The verified hypotheses reflect on the role of initial conditions of countries and the one-year impact of energy inflation on their economic performance. The two-step analysis first creates six clusters of countries based on their energy, trade, financial and political vulnerability, and preparedness indicators. The second step is to explore the shifts of clusters in expectations on macroeconomic indicators. Specific patterns of country groups are explored in the value and evolution of wartime indicators of inflation, GDP growth, consumer and business confidence, as well as FX volatility. The exploration concludes that the entry variables of clustering are relevant, and the EU countries can be segmented by dependency, energy, financial, and political aspects. Thus, it is possible to verify the distance in risk and exposure among EU economies. The impact variables demonstrated that the extent of the inflationary effect depended on the initial conditions. In addition, the research identified protective short-term factors against energy inflation originating in a trade and war context.
Rupert Croft-Cooke
Authors: Perkins Blake 
Published: April 2024

In 1960 a curious book appeared, called English Cooking: A New Approach. The book was a brave and forlorn effort to rehabilitate traditional British cuisine. The timing was not ideal. By then, the days of rationing were forgotten and the influence of Elizabeth David, among other blights, had relegated British food to untouchable status. This articles puts English Cooking into historical context and discusses the attempts of other writers to preserve English foodways, noting Rupert Croft-Cooke's own opinions of their efforts while also providing a biographical account of Croft-Crooke's extraordinary life.
La construcción de la realidad social
Authors: García-Lavernia Gil Joaquín Rafael 
Published: April 2024

The reality of the human being is composed through their perceptions. And these perceptions are conditioned by the reality exposed by the media. Understanding their formation is understanding the worldview of our culture. This article presents the possibly most significant set of studies related to the concept of Newsmaking and the evolution towards the Newsmaking-Mix. Not only is the need to observe the concept as a set of factors proposed, but the importance of this fact is underlined as it is the essence of the perceptions of the human being. It is not a question of exposing a theory of journalism but of describing the systematics that condition journalistic work and its social consequences. This phenomenon also affects digital social networks, which drink from the main source, which are the creators of social reality, and which are managed with conditioned stereotypes, in the long term, by the information media.
The Newsmaking-Mix is ​​presented as a set of factors: public opinion, public opinion, production techniques, routines and prejudices, media culture, the demands of each medium, the audience, the selection of facts, events, competition and colleagues, culture of journalistic company, and, finally, the sources. Such an order of exposure does not amount to any hierarchy. In short, the final result is to try to expose the dynamics that will explain in the future the reasons why our current postmodern communication emanates, with all the consequences of social interaction that arise.

Published: April 2024

ABSTRACT
Accurate calculation of a declustered earthquake catalog is essential for adequately evaluating seismic hazards in a given territory. Different declustering methods for different seismotectonic conditions can give different results. In this article, we analyze the efficacy of several declustering algorithms in study seismicity in the Tauro Caucasus region and their influence on seismic hazard assessment. We examine approaches proposed by Gardner and Knopoff (1974), as well as different windowing techniques suggested by Uhrhammer (1986) and a modified version of Grünthal (1985). We also investigate declustering methods introduced by Reasenberg (1985) and Zaliapin and Ben-Zion (2013). The results indicate that, for the Tauro Caucasian region, the Gardner and Knopoff, Gruenthal window and Zaliapin and Ben-Zion methods provide more objective results. In the process of declustering, previously unknown phenomenal manifestations of seismicity have been uncovered.
The 2020 Mw 6.5 Stanley, Idaho, Earthquake and Aftershock Sequence: Complex Faulting at the Northern End of the Basin and Range Province
Authors: Braunmiller Jochen , Wetmore Paul 
Published: April 2024

ABSTRACT
The magnitude 6.5 Stanley, Idaho, earthquake occurred on 31 March 2020 in a sparsely populated region north of the Sawtooth normal fault. We used seismic data from temporary and permanent stations to derive a 1D velocity model and relocate 1401 M ≥ 2.4 earthquakes with hypoDD, including a foreshock, the mainshock, and 3 yr of aftershocks. We used broadband data to determine seismic moment tensors for 173 Mw≥3.1 earthquakes. Combining locations and mechanisms shows the mainshock ruptured an unmapped north-trending, steeply west-dipping, left-lateral strike-slip fault. Rupture initiated near the bottom of the seismogenic zone and propagated upward and bilaterally for ∼20 km north and ∼3–5 km south, where the fault likely ends and deformation changes to extension. There, the rupture may have jumped west to another unmapped blind fault accommodating oblique extension. Support for a late mainshock rupture on a northwest-trending, likely east-dipping fault comes from normal faulting aftershocks. The total rupture length is ∼25–30 km, because oblique fault activity ends at the latitude of the northern terminus of the Sawtooth fault, but its trace, if it reached the surface, would be ∼6 km to the west. The Sawtooth fault was not active, even though aftershock clusters indicate that short strike-slip and normal faults are abundant in its footwall and hanging wall. Extension in the northern Basin and Range seems to terminate where major normal faults reach the inactive Eocene Trans-Challis fault system (TCFS), suggesting the TCFS exerts structural control. The deformation north of the TCFS is low, and the strike-slip character was unknown before the Stanley earthquake. Faults rupturing in the Stanley earthquake lack surface expression and are immature with low cumulative displacement. Complex transitions between tectonic regimes are common and may result in blind ruptures on unknown, immature faults, posing an underrated hazard.

The Relationship between the Teaching and Educational Functions of Education in Countries with Democratic and Non-Democratic Political Regimes (Using the Example of the USSR and Russia)
Authors: Ганцовский В.А. 
Published: April 2024

Рассматривается влияние существующего в стране политического режима на систему образования, в частности на сферу дополнительного образования детей и взрослых. Проанализировано соотношение воспитательной и обучающей функций в системе дополнительного образования в последние десятилетия существования СССР и в современной России. Исследование основывается на политическом и социально-экономическом контексте, в котором происходила постепенная трансформация советской образовательной системы, дополнительного образования. Выявленный дисбаланс между воспитательной и обучающей функциями представляется оправданным существующими в странах политическим режимами: в недемократических режимах преобладающей является воспитательная функция, в то время как в демократическом государстве акцент смещается в сторону обучения. Также была выявлена сформировавшаяся в последние годы потребность в разработке и применении подходов, позволяющих сбалансировать воспитательную и обучающую функции образования как в образовательной системе России в целом, так и в сфере дополнительного образования в частности, так как это представляется важным условием для обеспечения качественного и всестороннего развития обучающихся независимо от их возраста.
The influence of the existing political regime in the country on the education system, in particular on the sphere of additional education of children and adults, is considered. The relationship between educational and training functions in the system of additional education in the last decades of the USSR and in modern Russia is analyzed. The study is based on the political and socio-economic context in which the gradual transformation of the Soviet educational system and additional education took place. The identified imbalance between the educational and training functions seems justified by the political regimes existing in countries: in non-democratic regimes the educational function is predominant, while in a democratic state the emphasis shifts towards education. It also identified the need that has emerged in recent years for the development and application of approaches that allow balancing the educational and training functions of education both in the educational system of Russia in general and in the field of additional education in particular, since this seems to be an important condition for ensuring high-quality and comprehensive development students regardless of their age.
