The working mechanisms of the victim-offender mediation process: how might participation explain psychological outcomes in offenders?
Previous research shows that participation in victim-offender mediation (VOM) predicts psychological outcomes in offenders – such as increased responsibility-taking and victim empathy. However, little is known about elements that might contribute to these outcomes. We hypothesised that adhering to three fundamental conditions of VOM (perceived voluntary participation, preparation, professional competencies of mediators) and three working mechanisms (learning opportunity, humanising impact, a positive and constructive atmosphere and interaction with victims) would relate positively to the occurrence of these outcomes. In addition, we expected the fundamental conditions to either moderate the association between the working mechanisms and the psychological outcomes or to directly predict the presence of the working mechanisms. To examine this, we used quantitative (n = 55) and qualitative data (n = 9) of offenders and mediators, respectively, who participated in VOM. Results offered partial support for the hypotheses. Three groups of working mechanisms of the VOM process were related to psychological outcome variables: the perceived degree of a positive and constructive atmosphere and interaction with victims, humanising impact, and offering a learning process. The prevalence of the fundamental conditions, preparation and mediators’ professional competencies correlated positively with multiple working mechanisms; the perceived voluntary participation showed expected and unexpected associations with working mechanisms.

Archéogéographie et géoarchéologie du premier Remiremont – AGER. Pour une archéologie environnementale du massif forestier du Fossard (Vosges)
Authors: Kraemer Charles , Ancelin Pierre-Yves 
Published: February 2024

Dans le cadre d’une recherche sur les phases d’anthropisation de la montagne vosgienne, commencée sur le versant alsacien et les Hautes-Vosges, le projet AGER vise à mesurer, sur la longue durée, la dynamique d’un espace forestier de moyenne altitude, situé sur le versant lorrain. Le choix du massif du Fossard, qui s’étend sur près de 150 km² entre Epinal et Remiremont (Vosges), résulte de son lien étroit, topographique et historique, avec cette dernière ville, née d’une abbaye primitivement fondée, au VIIe siècle, dans un castrum tardo-antique, perché à 670 m d’altitude à l’extrémité méridionale de ce relief (aujourd’hui Le Saint-Mont). Après un bref exposé de l’état de l’art suivi d’une présentation des sources planimétriques anciennes, cet article dresse un bilan d’étape de la recherche fondée sur le décryptage de la cartographie LiDAR.
Inventer la montagne vosgienne et son environnement : du tournant cartographique moderne aux perspectives contemporaines
Authors: Ortlieb Jean-Baptiste 
Published: February 2024

Le double tournant cartographique des XVIe et XVIIIe siècles coïncide en Europe avec la construction de nouveaux modes de représentation associés aux espaces de montagne et à leurs environnements. L’acte cartographique, qui accompagne un mouvement d’inventaire du monde, s’impose pour les États comme un medium important de territorialisation des montagnes européennes et de leurs ressources. L’inscription progressive et géométrique du massif vosgien dans la matrice cartographique moderne contribue à faire entrer cet espace dans la mondiation naturaliste. Ce tournant conditionne durablement les imaginaires de la montagne vosgienne et de ses sommets, jusque dans les productions les plus récentes.

Published: February 2024

AA7050 aluminium alloy used for the main landing gear link was reinforced with SiC particles utilizing stir casting and uniform dispersion of reinforced particles was analyzed through SEM with EDS mapping. Wear test were performed on pin on disc apparatus by varying the process parameters and experimental runs were designed using response surface methodology. The influence of SiC particles on wear resistance at high temperatures was explored and the findings led to the development of a novel wear equation. The hardness of composites increased due to impediments of dislocation movement, and it declines with an increase in temperature owing to a reduction of Pierls stresses. The formation of a Mechanically Mixed Layer (MML) enhances wear resistance with the inclusion of reinforced particles, and the breakdown of this layer swifts the wear from moderate to severe. The mode of wear was a combination of shearing and abrasive at room temperature, shearing and adhesive until the temperature 200ᵒC, and plastic deformation when the temperature exceeded 200 °C, which was confirmed by worn surface morphology.

Published: February 2024

Diffractive optics devices are optical devices in which the amplitude or phase of the incident light is spatially modulated periodically by a micro-nanomaterial based structure. The study of diffractive optics devices in the field of micro and nano can change the spectroscopic behavior of micro and nano diffractive optics devices by varying the microstructure of the structure and the optical wave properties, which can effectively and reasonably modulate the optical wave signal. To study the effect of different parameter structures on the performance of micro-nano diffraction optical devices, in this paper, two three-dimensional array structures of diffractive optical devices are proposed, which are a vertex-intersecting regular tetrahedron structure and a base-intersecting regular frustum structure. Using the Finite-Difference Time-Domain method, the spectroscopic images of the diffractive optics of the constructed micro-nano diffractive devices are studied in the near-infrared band by varying the height of the constructed structures, the type of structures, the wavelength of the incident light waves, and the polarization direction of the light waves in different 3D height coordinates. The effects of different parameter changes on the performance of the micro-nano diffractive optics devices were analyzed by image comparison. The results show that the best diffraction effect is achieved at a structure height of 0.9 μm for both models with different structure types. The study of both structures at this structure height reveals that the location of diffraction occurrence and the intensity of diffraction can be tuned by varying the structure and the relevant parameters such as the polarization of the light wave. This paper has some theoretical applications for the study of high-performance diffractive optics.

Obwohl neueste Studien die zentrale Rolle der Lehrkraft für den Unterrichtserfolg belegen, wird in der Lehrerausbildung nach wie vor auf eine curriculare Verankerung der Lehrkunst verzichtet. Deren Entwicklung ist eine fächerübergreifende Aufgabe, das Fach Deutsch jedoch ist in besonderer Weise gefordert, die theoretischen und institutionellen Voraussetzungen für die Ausbildung sprachlicher und kommunikativer Kompetenzen zu schaffen. Ausgehend von der Frage nach dem Wissen und Können der Teilnehmer wird an der Schnittstelle von Transferlinguistik und Professionstheorie ein Verfahren entwickelt, mit dem einschlägige Reflexionsprozesse empirisch rekonstruiert und praktisch simuliert werden können. Die Rekonstruktion konkreter Unterrichtssequenzen soll dabei für kritische Punkte in der Reflexionsbiografie angehender Lehrkünstler sensibilisieren. Besonderes Augenmerk gilt der Unterscheidung von Lehre und Gespräch sowie der Qualität professionsbezogener Reflexion angesichts der ubiquitären Verwendung entsprechender Konzepte.

Authors: ERADAJIRE, Blessing N.  , IMONIKEBE, Bridget.U  
Published: February 2024

This study assess the acceptability of processed water yam flour as a snack and its sensory evaluation. Using water yam flour and wheat flour in the ratios of 70:30 and 50:50, two distinct composite flour blends were created. As a control, there were samples made of wheat flour. The purpose of the study was to investigate the potential applications of Nigeria's freely obtainable water yam flour for making chinchin, cake, and cookies. In order to accomplish this, chinchin, cakes, and cookies made with water yam and wheat flour were prepared and then subjected to sensory analysis. Based on its appearance, color, flavor, texture, taste, mouth feel, crispiness, and overall acceptability, food products such chinchin, cake, and cookies were utilized to assess the sensory acceptability. For sensory evaluation, an 8-point hedonic scale was employed. The mean separation was performed using the Duncan New Multiple Range Test. The data was analyzed using the mean(x) score, simple percentage, standard deviation (SD), and analysis of variance (ANOVA). To clarify how new recipe is created, the study used an experimental research approach. It was evident from the findings that the judges accepted chinchin, cakes, and cookie sampling. The study concluded that, with regard to the factors examined, there was no discernible variation in the judges' ratings. Based on the results, the researcher concluded that water yam flour can be used in place of wheat flour and that products like chinchin, cakes, and cookies made with water yam flour should be encouraged by the producers.

Authors: USOROH, Comfort.  , EKONG, Ima  , EKONG, Ima  
Published: February 2024

The family is a microeconomic unit of the larger society where family members engage in economic activities such as sales and purchases of goods and services. Technological advancements have significantly altered the techniques of family economics in recent times and enhanced transaction. This paper concentrates on the deployment of digital resources for family economics and transactions. It critically reviews the concept of e-commerce, the evolution, types, benefits, challenges and the influence of e-commerce on families. E-commerce, the activity of buying and selling goods and services online over the internet dates back to the early 1970s; expanded market, cost savings and competitive pricing, others include personalized shopping experience, improved efficiency and streamlined operations, enhanced customer engagement and feedback, there are basically four types of e-commerce which are Peer-to-peer (P2P) which is a platform where a buyer and the seller interact with each other without the involvement of a middle person; Consumer-to-Consumer (C2C), which is a type of platform where the consumer trades goods and services directly with another consumer online; Business-to-Business (B2B), this is an online transaction between two business owners; and Business-to-Consumer (B2C), this is an online business between the consumer and the business owner. The methodology used in this research was a review of secondary data. The benefits of e-commerce are convenience and accessibility, global reach and expanded market, cost savings and competitive pricing, others include personalized shopping experience, improved efficiency and streamlined operations, enhanced customer engagement and feedback, consumer behaviour and decision making. The paper also identified some of the challenges of e-commerce as security and privacy concerns, logistics and fulfilment, building customer trust, regulatory compliance, competitive landscape and technological infrastructure. The influence of e-commerce on families are many and varied. They include convenience and time savings, cost savings and discounts, expanded product accessibility: convenience for busy parents, enhanced product research and decision-making and improved access for remote or limited mobility families. E-commerce is therefore a valuable digital resource for family economics for sustainable development.

Drug like potential of Daidzein using SwissADME prediction: In silico Approaches
Authors: Haseeba Sardar  
Published: February 2024

In the early stages of drug development, predicting the drug candidates' absorption, distribution, metabolism, and elimination (ADME) profiles prior to their synthesis may help in the selection of potential candidates. Since in-vivo ADME assessment is proven to be expensive, time-consuming, and involved animal studies, in-vitro ADME analysis is preferable since it is better, less expensive, and gives accurate data more rapidly. Daidzein, also known as 7-hydroxy-3-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-4H-1-benzopyran-4-one, is a nonsteroidal phytoestrogen that occurs naturally. The aim of the present study is to predict the in vitro ADME study of Daidzein using web tool called SwissADME. The 2D structure of Daidzein was drawn on chemdraw Ultra version 12. By taking into consideration the features of flexibility, lipophilicity, saturation, size, polarity, and solubility, the bioavailability radar revealed that the colored zone is the ideal physicochemical region for oral bioavailability. According to the location of the compounds in the WLOGP-versus-TPSA referential, the pharmacokinetic features were examined using the boiled egg model, which enables straightforward evaluation of passive gastrointestinal absorption and brain penetration. The white portion has a high likelihood of being absorbed passively by the gastrointestinal tract, whereas the yolk-colored yellow section has a high likelihood of penetrating the brain. The study concluded that Daidzein did not violate the recommended ranges for Lipinski’s rule of five, rotational bond count and TPSA. The compound also showed moderate lipophilicity and good water solubility. It did not act as a substrate for P-glycoprotein. Daidzein displayed a potential to inhibit CYP1A2, CYP2D6 and CYP3A4. Besides that, the compound exhibited no action against CYP2C19 and CYP2C9. It exhibited a uniform and good bioavailability score of 0.55 (55%) with high gastrointestinal (GI) absorption capabilities and the ability to permeate the blood-brain barrier. Additionally, Synthetic Accessibility score of daidzein revealed an easy step reaction of synthesis. As a result, the compound could be considered as a potential candidate for new drug discovery.

Published: February 2024

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND:
Although the COVID-19 quarantine required everyone to make lifestyle changes, it may have had especially profound implications for individuals who experience multiple sclerosis (MS)–related fatigue. Individuals with MS who suffer from fatigue are at risk of worsening symptoms and already predisposed to inactivity and social isolation. The objective of this study was to examine the impact of the COVID-19 national quarantine and related restrictions on mental, emotional, and physical fatigue in persons with MS in the United States.

METHODS:
We conducted a survey open to all adults (&gt;18 years) with MS within the United States. The survey gathered demographic information and asked how the COVID-19 pandemic impacted their physical, mental, and emotional fatigue.

RESULTS:
The survey was completed by 600 individuals, 478 with relapsing MS and 122 with progressive MS. There was a significant 2-way interaction of time by fatigue type; both physical and emotional fatigue significantly increased during the pandemic (P &lt;.01) and remained significantly higher after the pandemic than prior to the pandemic (P &lt;.01). Mental fatigue increased significantly during the pandemic (P &lt;.01) and although it remained higher, on average, after the pandemic, it was not significantly different from the level before the pandemic.

CONCLUSIONS:
Individuals with MS experienced increases in physical, mental, and emotional fatigue over the course of the COVID-19 quarantine. Even after the lifting of quarantine restrictions, these levels have not returned to baseline. To adequately address fatigue, it is critical that health care professionals inquire about all types of fatigue in persons with MS.
Effect of oxygen on nonthermal plasma reactions of nitrogen oxides in nitrogen

Published: March 2005

AbstractNO is mainly converted to NO2 by chemical oxidation in the presence of oxygen. Initial selectivity analysis shows that three electron collision reactions are important for NOx evolution in O2/N2. The rate constants of these reactions decrease with increasing oxygen concentration. This is because oxygen is electronegative and thus reduces electron concentration. The rate constant of O2 dissociation by electron collision reaction is almost two orders of magnitude higher than that of N2 dissociation. NO formation occurs predominantly through N(2D) + O2 → NO + O. The critical oxygen concentration, defined as the concentration at which the NOx formation rate counterbalances the NOx decomposition rate, increases with increasing initial NO concentration. © 2005 American Institute of Chemical Engineers AIChE J, 2005
