Introduction: Psychological research can be conducted by researchers and by undergraduate or postgraduate students. At the undergraduate level, psychological research is especially challenging because of the limited ability of students to develop coherent and logical research problems and methodological approaches. Objective: This study aimed to identify the main research trends in undergraduate psychological theses at Peruvian universities. Quantitative and qualitative research design trends were identified as specific objectives. Methods: A descriptive and retrospective systematic review of psychological research thesis of Peruvian undergraduate students was conducted, starting the data extraction process starting with RENATI database for an initial screening phase. The data analysis was conducted in two phases. Results: The data were organized according to the following categories: sex of the authors, universities (1–5) according to their ranking, year of publication of the thesis, number of authors, designs, type of methodology, and topic of publication. Descriptive statistics were calculated on the basis of these categories. In the next phase, lexicometric and statistical textual analyses were used to identify research trends. Discussion: The main results showed that different topics were predominantly framed within the clinical and health psychology line of research, mainly those related to coping styles, psychological stress, and well-being.

Authors: Anindya Nabila  , Resa Kristianda  , Muhammad Hasan  , Supriadi  
Published: September 2023

This research investigates the implementation of the Audio-lingual Method (ALM) to enhance listening skills among Junior High School students. The study used a classroom action research (CAR) approach, involving three cycles with observations, pre-tests, post-tests, and a questionnaire. The findings revealed that students initially struggle with listening in English due to limited vocabulary, grammatical difficulties, pronunciation issues, and a lack of confidence. The ALM significantly improved students' listening comprehension skills through audio recordings, dialogues, interactive activities, and authentic materials. Around 75% of students felt significantly assisted and found it easier to comprehend English vocabulary after the ALM implementation. However, 15% of students expressed disagreement, citing continued struggles with limited vocabulary. The ALM positively influences students' listening skills by combining listening practice with interactive activities and authentic materials. To further enhance students' listening abilities, teachers should address vocabulary limitations and pronunciation challenges, and employ additional strategies to foster a supportive and enjoyable learning environment. Future research should explore supplementary approaches and resources that complement the ALM to further enhance students' listening skills. Evaluating the long-term impact of the ALM on students' listening abilities would provide valuable insights into its effectiveness over an extended period. By implementing these findings, educators can effectively enhance students' listening skills and promote their overall English language proficiency.

Keywords: Listening skills, Audio Lingual Method (ALM), effectiveness, classroom action research (CAR), observations.

The ‘Insurance Policy Model’: An Alternative Approach to Evaluating Disruptive Technologies in the Energy Transition
Authors: Abbott Marc 
Published: September 2023

The Energy Transition from hydrocarbon fuels (Oil, Coal, and Natural Gas) to carbon neutral or carbon zero fuels are bringing a necessary change in the way companies and markets evaluate and fund research and development (R&D) in the Energy Transition. Historically research and development in oil, coal, and natural gas has been focused on “Sustainable Technology” that is developing technology that focuses on lowering cost, increasing efficiency, reducing environmental impacts, and using less energy in the production life cycle of an established product or commodity. Sustainable technology projects and portfolios have proven evaluation and decision-making methodologies and are generally risk averse; For example, using risked net present value (rNPV) to evaluate incorporating a more efficient generator into a mature energy system.With the Energy Transition many of the technologies are either in the very early stages of development or not yet tested beyond theory and can be classified as “Disruptive Technologies”. Disruptive technologies have by their very nature, as they are unproven, a very different value proposition than sustainable technologies thus traditional evaluation and decision-making methods, such as rNPV are not applicable.This short communication puts forward an alternative solution to evaluating and supporting decision making for disruptive technologies; The Insurance Premium model is developed where representative insurance premiums are proposed, ranging from very small for unproven technology many years from a significant presence in the market (0.03% of investment) to rather small (1%) for more matured technology that may be significant in the market in five years’ time.

Investigation of Chinese Preschool Teachers’ Attitudes and Beliefs toward Science Teaching
Authors: Li Lie 
Published: September 2023

The science attitudes and beliefs of preschool teachers in Shaanxi province of China were explored. 185 preschool teachers participated in the survey. The findings revealed that the preschool teachers had the positive attitudes and beliefs toward science teaching. However, there are clearer differences between preschool teachers’ science attitudes and beliefs and practical teaching. They may escape teaching science activities in teaching when they meet difficulties in the insufficient teaching time, inadequate knowledge and auxiliary materials. In addition, the factors influencing teachers’ science attitudes and beliefs were studied. The gender and education level of preschool teachers had no significant effect on their scientific attitudes and beliefs. It is worthy note that the preschool teachers with bachelor’s degree were more willing to carry out some science activities than the preschool teachers with university (3 years). Although there is no significant difference in the attitudes and beliefs of the preschool teachers with different teaching experiences, teaching experiences had a significant difference in the challenge dimension. The preschool teachers with less than 2 years teaching experiences are more confidence in science teaching. Based on the findings, some suggestions are supplied: improving education level, building specific and clear standards, providing more related auxiliary material supports.
Using reinforcement learning to improve drone-based inference of greenhouse gas fluxes
Authors: Van Hove Alouette , Aalstad Kristoffer , Pirk Norbert 
Published: September 2023

Accurate mapping of greenhouse gas fluxes at the Earth’s surface is essential for the validation and calibration of climate models. In this study, we present a framework for surface flux estimation with drones. Our approach uses data assimilation (DA) to infer fluxes from drone-based observations, and reinforcement learning (RL) to optimize the drone’s sampling strategy. Herein, we demonstrate that an RL-trained drone can quantify a CO2 hotspot more accurately than a drone sampling along a predefined flight path thattraverses the emission plume. We find that information-based reward functions can match the performance of an error-based reward function that quantifies the difference between the estimated surface flux and the true value. Reward functions based on information gain and information entropy can motivate actions that increase the drone’s confidence in its updated belief, without requiring knowledge of the true surface flux. These findings provide valuable insights for further development of the framework for the mapping of more complex surface flux fields.
Deciphering Magmatic Evolution through Zoned Magmatic Enclaves and Composite Dikes: An Example from the Late Cretaceous Taejongdae Granite in Busan, Korea
Authors: S.M. Adam Mohammed , Hategekimana Francois , Kim YoungJae , Kim Young-Seog 
Published: September 2023

Late Cretaceous granitic intrusions are common in the southeastern Korean Peninsula. Most of these intrusions enclose abundant microgranular enclaves (MEs) and dikes of almost identical age to their plutons. The granitic intrusion in the Taejongdae area encloses a distinct type of enclave known as zoned MEs. The zoned MEs in this region are composed of multiple zones originated from different magmas that have the same origin and age. Several petrological, mineralogical, geochemical, SHRIMP U-Ph age dating, and Lu-Hf isotopic studies have been conducted for the Taejongdae granitoid to identify how different magmas have interacted and formed the zoned MEs. In this chapter, we reviewed previous studies and added some new data to give a comprehensive picture of the Taejongdae granite and emphasize the importance of zoned enclaves and composite dikes in determining the genesis and evolution of granitoids. We interpret that the MEs distributed in the southeastern part of the Korean Peninsula with the age of 75–70 Ma might be closely related to the breakdown of the subducted Izanagi oceanic slab under the Eurasian plate. This tectonic process enhanced the input of new primitive magma into granitic magma chambers and, therefore, restricted the mixing or mingling process, forming the zoned MEs.

A Contemporary Approach to Intraoperative Evaluation in Neuropathology
Authors: Becker Nicole , Camelo-Piragua Sandra , Conway Kyle S. 
Published: September 2023

Context.—
Although the basic principles of intraoperative diagnosis in surgical neuropathology have not changed in the last century, the last several decades have seen dramatic changes in tumor classification, terminology, molecular classification, and modalities used for intraoperative diagnosis. As many neuropathologic intraoperative diagnoses are performed by general surgical pathologists, awareness of these recent changes is important for the most accurate intraoperative diagnosis.

Objective.—
To describe recent changes in the practice of intraoperative surgical neuropathology, with an emphasis on new entities, tumor classification, and anticipated ancillary tests, including molecular testing.

Data Sources.—
The sources for this review include the fifth edition of the World Health Organization Classification of Tumours of the Central Nervous System, primary literature on intraoperative diagnosis and newly described tumor entities, and the authors' clinical experience.

Conclusions.—
A significant majority of neuropathologic diagnoses require ancillary testing, including molecular analysis, for appropriate classification. Therefore, the primary goal for any neurosurgical intraoperative diagnosis is the identification of diagnostic tissue and the preservation of the appropriate tissue for molecular testing. The intraoperative pathologist should seek to place a tumor in the most accurate diagnostic category possible, but specific diagnosis at the time of an intraoperative diagnosis is often not possible. Many entities have seen adjustments to grading criteria, including the incorporation of molecular features into grading. Awareness of these changes can help to avoid overgrading or undergrading at the time of intraoperative evaluation.
