Authors: Hanh Hoang Phuong , Dien Bui Thi , Lien Nguyen Hong , Lan Trinh Thi Ngoc , Thai Luong Viet , Vinh Le Anh 
Published: March 2022

This article discusses determinant factors of creative thinking skills in students, including demographic features, within and out-of-school experiences, digital usage and ICT (Information and Communication Technology) skills. Structural equated model constructed from 1181 observations from Vietnamese secondary students reveals that students’ digital usage and ICT skills, together with experiences within and outside school are strong predictors of their creativity levels. Demographic features, academic performance and after-school tuition are found insignificant to school learners’ creative abilities. The results provide significant insights into the current situation of skills education and policy implications to improve instructional quality of Vietnam’s education system and other nations with similar sociocultural contexts.

Authors: Radianto Wirawan E.D. , Salim Ika , Christian Sonata , Efrata Tommy Christian , Dewi Liliana 
Published: March 2022

The purpose of this study was to examine the role of mental accounting, financial attitude, and financial self-efficacy on financial behavior. Furthermore, this study examines the effect of financial knowledge on mental accounting, financial attitude, and financial self-efficacy. This study uses 400 student respondents who have businesses. Data analysis using PLS. The results show that financial behavior is influenced by mental accounting, financial attitude, and financial self-efficacy. However, financial knowledge did not increase mental accounting and financial self-efficacy. This study proves that mental accounting is very important for student success in business. Mental accounting controls the mindset of young entrepreneurs in managing finances so that they have a positive financial attitude, good financial self-efficacy, and effective financial behavior. From this study, we believe that mental accounting plays an important role for young entrepreneurs in financial decision-making. However, financial knowledge does not necessarily influence the mental accounting mindset.

Authors: Avdiu Eliza , Holzinger Andrea 
Published: March 2022

The purpose of this research is to understand the integration of innovative teaching and its modeling through teachers' experiences as one of the most advanced approaches to teaching today. Eight teachers of a primary school in Austria were involved in this study. Qualitative methods, with semi-structured interviews, were used in this study. In this study, semi-structured interviews, classroom observations and participation were conducted, during a one-month period. The results of this study illustrate innovative teaching experiences through new models, which have begun to be implemented this year in this school, such as: digital and social competence as a new field, teaching in the studio, combining mathematics with music, learning drama with technology and other subjects, learning in the school's green kindergarten, learning with digital tools, and a series of play-modeled activities which focused on active student participation. Through these models, students learn how to organize the learning process themselves, to choose what will work in accordance with their interests, in order to increase students’ independence in their work and their preparation for the living environment where they grow up.

Authors: Sefoka Isaiah Mmatipe 
Published: March 2022

This paper examines the judicial intervention in safeguarding the comprehension and the fulfilment of the right to quality education through its pronouncements and judgements. The paper showcase that these judgements and pronouncements have now become essential regulatory tools shaping the administration and enforcement of the right to quality education in South Africa. It emphasizes that the judiciary on its pronouncements showcase the importance of understanding the meaning of the right to education and steadfast the significance of having social services connected to the learning environment for the delivery and realization of quality and sustainable education. It concludes that this right is inalienable and as such, it is incumbent on the government and institutions responsible for the protection of this right to certify that the right is promoted, protected and provided for at all cost. The paper recommends that the judiciary must continuously contribute in ensuring that quality education is promoted and protected by pronouncing judgements that promote quality sustainable education connected with good social services in schools across South Africa.

The Value of a Pilot Study in Educational Research Learning: In Search of a Good Theory-Method Fit
Authors: Muresherwa Edson , Loyiso C. Jita 
Published: March 2022

This article shares the authors’ reflections and experiences gained from a pilot study that was recently used in completing a larger qualitative educational research study on the challenges and opportunities for instructional leadership in inclusive secondary schools in Zimbabwe. Historically, pilot studies have not been reported. When interest in this area started to emerge, the focus was on quantitative research, especially in health-related disciplines. In recent times, there has been growing debate on the place of pilot studies in qualitative and mixed methods research. However, a number of questions still remain unanswered, especially in the area of educational research. One of the worrisome features of these questions seems to be the taken‑for‑granted assumption that once a researcher conceives of an educational research idea, they are automatically clear and specific on the onto-epistemological and methodological tools that may best be employed to answer the questions at hand. This view is reflected when, for example, the few writers on pilot studies generally specify a particular research approach, such as importance of pilot studies in quantitative research, importance of pilot studies in qualitative research, or importance of pilot studies in mixed methods research, and do not talk about the value of a pilot study in educational research learning as a search for a good theory-method fit. This article focuses on pilot studies in educational research learning in order to close this gap. The central theme in this article is that pilot-studying may itself determine, for example, whether a study should follow a qualitative, mixed methods or quantitative approach. It also determines the appropriateness of research tools for the task at hand. Specifically, pilot-studying helps especially student researchers to find an appropriate theory-method fit and thereby makes researching possible. Following a pilot study, educational research that was originally planned to be mixed methods research or quantitative research may end up embracing a qualitative approach and vice versa. Our desire to share reflections and experiences gained in completing the main PhD study which informs the current article, coupled with ongoing debates on pilot studies in educational research, inspired us to pen this article. The article contributes to scholarship by elaborating and adding new insights on the work of earlier writers on the important research practice of pilot-studying in educational research processes.

Translation in the Umayyad Era: Individual Experiences Shaping the Movement
Authors: L Ismail Yazid Abdulrahman A 
Published: March 2022

This paper explores the early translation movement in the Arabic-speaking world and the reasons why efforts to translate texts from non-Arabic languages into Arabic during the Umayyad period have largely been overlooked. The current study micro-historically highlights the translation efforts made before, during, and after the Umayyad period (661-750), concluding that Umayyad translation scholars have been overlooked in favor of later Abbasid scholars due to political considerations. Finally, recommendations are made as to future research built upon the current paper to further explore individual historical experiences.

Empirical Research of Translating Albanian Literary Text into English by Albanian EFL Students
Authors: Vula Elsa 
Published: March 2022

Literary translation is a type of translation, which requires a great commitment in realizing it. The differences that may be shared by the SL and TL make translation as a process a complicated and challenging one, especially when it comes to literary text translation. The messages, emotions and culture that the literature of a language shares sometimes seem almost difficult to be passed from one language to another one. This is a consequence of differences that the two different languages share in their construction and in their culture. This paper has been focused on the problems of equivalence while dealing with Albanian literary text translation to English, carried out by Albanian university students who study English Language and Literature. Empirical and qualitative are the research methods that have been used in this scientific paper. All these methods have verified the three hypotheses of this research as well as have found the answers to the questions on this research. In addition, the results reached from the three aforementioned research methods have helped in achieving the objectives and aims of this paper.The corpora that has been used in this research is the Albanian literary texts: “Ajkuna qan Omerin” from Kangë Kreshnikësh (Kreshink’s Songs). The text has been translated by Albanian students that study English Language and Literature at the University of Gjakova “Fehmi Agani”, Faculty of Philology, department of English language and Literature and at University of Prizren “Ukshin Hoti”, Faculty of Philology, department of English language and Literature. The translated versions were used as primary source materials for analysis. Another instrument used in this research is the questionnaire, consisting of two open-ended questions. One question aimed at identifying difficulties or challenges that students might have or face during their translation, whereas the second question asked them about the solutions that they might find when dealing with difficulties or challenges during Albanian literary text translation. Thus, the problems of equivalence during Albanian literary texts translation have been identified based on the analysis of students’ translation, and on their responses regarding difficulties or challenges that they faced or had during text translations. The work presents the most common strategies used by Albanian students during the process of literary text translation from Albanian into English.

Sociology of Terrorism: A Brief History and Overview of the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria’s (ISIS) Propaganda Wing from a Socio-Educational Perspective
Authors: Abumelhim Mohammad Husni , Radaideh Ramzy Mahmoud , Abu-Alkeshek Esra’a Omar 
Published: March 2022

This study aimed at providing a brief overview of ISIS’s ideology and origins as starting points for an analysis of its propaganda strategy. How did ISIS utilize its ideological propaganda wing to achieve its socio-educational goals? An intrinsic case study is used to provide an overview of ISIS’s key multi-lingual propaganda documents and media modes. It is these documents and modes of media that ISIS uses as primary sources for its propaganda strategy, which is employed through vocabulary reinforcement, in addition to piece-meal usage of Qur’an and Hadith. Through the intrinsic case study, this study illustrates precisely how ISIS’s ideology is reflected through both content and form. Since ISIS’s inception as an offshoot of Al-Qaeda in Iraq (AQI), ISIS has learned to constantly reposition and remarket itself as a needed response to the needs of the umma. It is only by understanding the periodicals that ISIS has developed over time that one can do justice in delving into ISIS’s strategy of sociolinguistic terrorism.

Prevalence of Anxiety, Depression, and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder Among Amputees Attending Jaipur Foot Trust Artificial Limb Centre in Kenya
Authors: Fara Illham Mohamed , Mutavi Teresia Ndilu , Gitau Catherine Wanja 
Published: March 2022

Background: Amputees have been noted to present various psychiatric disorders including anxiety, body image disturbances, depression, and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). However, there is limited data available on the prevalence of anxiety, depression, and PTSD among amputees in Kenya despite the high incidences of amputations in Kenyan hospitals. This study aimed at finding out the prevalence of anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder among amputees attending the Jaipur Foot Trust Centre in Kenya. Method: This study took a cross-sectional descriptive study design. One hundred and forty-one patients attending the Jaipur Foot Trust were recruited to participate in the study after giving informed consent using a non-probability purposive sampling method. A socio-demographic questionnaire was used to collect socio-demographic characteristics. The Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9) was used to assess the patient's depression. The Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD-7) scale was used to assess the patient's anxiety level and The Impact of Event Scale (IES-R) was used to assess the severity of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Data analysis was done using Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS) version 23. Results: Findings from this study showed high rates of psychiatric morbidity where two-thirds of the patients reported PTSD (65%) with more than three-quarters of patients being diagnosed with depression (89.4%) and anxiety (91.5%). Also, there was a significant correlation between depression, anxiety, and PTSD, such that participants who had higher scores on anxiety and depression had significantly higher PTSD scores. Conclusion: Anxiety, Depression, and PTSD are very common psychological reactions in patients who have undergone amputation. The researchers expected that some of the sociodemographic factors and some amputation-related characteristics would have a relation with psychiatric comorbidity. However, the findings of this study did not show any such relationship except the relation between anxiety, depression, and PTSD. Early psychological assessment and interventions after amputations will help alleviate psychological distress.
Modal vs. deictic evidentials in ʔayʔaǰuθəm (Comox-Sliammon)
Authors: Huijsmans Marianne , Reisinger Daniel K. E. 
Published: March 2022

In this paper, we present novel data from ʔayʔaǰuθəm (a.k.a. Comox-Sliammon; an understudied Salish language) that challenge both the claim that all evidentials are epistemic modals (Matthewson 2012) and the claim that evidentials and modals are distinct, non-overlapping categories (e.g. Aikhenvald 2004, Speas 2010}. We take the defining difference between modal and nonmodal evidentials to be that modal evidentials contribute an at-issue claim involving quantification over possible worlds/situations, whereas nonmodal evidentials do not; both types of evidentials contribute information about the speaker's source of evidence for the proposition. We argue that ʔayʔaǰuθəm has two types of evidentials: one set are epistemic modals, while the other set are nonmodal deictic particles. Though we argue against the claims that evidentials are uniformly modal or nonmodal, we propose that both types of evidentials encode relations between situations (following Speas 2010).
Mars Climate Sounder Observations of Gravity-wave Activity throughout Mars’s Lower Atmosphere

Published: March 2022

Abstract
Gravity waves are one way Mars’s lower atmospheric weather can affect the circulation and even composition of Mars’s middle and upper atmosphere. A recent study showed how on-planet observations near the center of the 15 μm CO2 band by the A3 channel (635–665 cm−1) of the Mars Climate Sounder on board the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter could sense horizontally short, vertically broad gravity waves at ≈25 km above the surface by looking at small-scale radiance variability in temperature-sensitive channels. This approach is extended here to two additional channels closer to the wings of the 15 μm CO2 band, A1 (595–615 cm−1) and A2 (615–645 cm−1), to sense gravity waves throughout the lower atmosphere. Using information from all three channels demonstrates that gravity-wave activity in Mars’s lowermost atmosphere is dominated by orographic sources, particularly over the extremely rough terrain of Valles Marineris. Much of this orographic population is either trapped or filtered in the lowest two scale heights, such that variations in filtering and nonorographic sources shape the gravity-wave population observed at 25 km above the surface. During global dust storms, however, gravity-wave activity in the first scale height decreases by approximately a factor of 2, yet trapping/filtering of what activity remains in the tropics substantially weakens. Exceptionally high radiance variability at night in the tropics during the less dusty part of the year is the result of observing mesospheric clouds rather than gravity waves.
Van tekenhandleiding tot academie. De opleiding van adellijke amateurkunstenaressen in Brussel in de 19e eeuw
Authors: Wiertz Wendy 
Published: March 2022

Au 19e siècle, les jeunes filles de la bourgeoisie, de la noblesse et des maisons royales d’Europe recevaient une éducation artistique. Si quelques-unes firent des arts leur métier en tirant profit d’une offre de formation en plein essor, la majorité – peu étudiée – d’entre elles pratiquait les arts en amateur. Cet article se concentre sur l’éducation artistique des artistes amatrices, en particulier celle des femmes de la noblesse dans le Bruxelles du 19e siècle. Pourtant très sensible à l’importance d’une éducation artistique, la noblesse ne vit naître dans ses rangs que de rares artistes professionnelles. La capitale offrait un vaste choix de formations. Des sources d’archives privées permettent d’approfondir les connaissances sur ces artistes amatrices et le paysage artistique de l’époque, tout en contextualisant les données liées aux artistes professionnelles.
Serum and Synovial Fluid Levels of Interleukin-17A in Primary Knee Osteoarthritis Patients: Correlations With Functional Status, Pain, and Disease Severity
Authors: KAMEL Shereen , KHALAF Rehab , MONESS Hend , AHMED Shimaa 
Published: March 2022

Objectives: This study aims to assess the serum and synovial fluid (SF) levels of interleukin (IL)-17A in primary knee osteoarthritis (KOA) patients and to study their correlations with functional status, pain, and disease severity.
Patients and methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted between December 2017 and March 2018 and it included 70 patients (46 males, 24 females; mean age 57.3±10.0 years; range 34 to 76 years) with primary KOA and 30 age-, sex-, and body mass index-matched healthy individuals (20 males, 10 females; mean age 53.3±10.3 years; range, 35 to 70 years). Western Ontario and McMaster Universities osteoarthritis index (WOMAC), visual analog scale (VAS), Lequesne index, and Kellgren and Lawrence (KL) grading scale were used for assessment of the disease. IL-17A levels were measured in the serum for patients and healthy controls, and in SF for patients only using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.
Results: Serum levels of IL-17A were significantly higher in KOA patients than controls (p=0.04). A positive correlation was found between serum and SF IL-17A levels. Serum and SF IL-17A levels had positive correlations with VAS, WOMAC pain score, Lequesne pain score, WOMAC function score, and Lequesne index. SF IL-17A levels had strong positive correlations with radiographic severity (KL grade) and duration of OA.
Conclusion: Higher IL-17A levels in primary KOA patients were significantly associated with longer disease duration, higher pain scores, worse quality of life, extreme disability, and advanced structural damage. Therapeutics that target IL-17A warrant further investigation.
Antagonistic asynchrony in biceps and triceps recruitment pattern during forward reach movement in children with cerebral palsy
Authors: A Sanya , Narayan Amitesh , Krishnan Shyam , Bolumbu Ganaraja 
Published: March 2022

Introduction and Aim: Children with Cerebral Palsy (CP) have a longer duration and poor quality of reaching movements than the Typically Developing (TD) children. This may be due to the variations in the antagonistic muscular activity. To evaluate the sequence of activity of muscle groups involved in reaching movements, we planned this study.
Materials and Methods: We analyzed the order and timing of Biceps Brachii and Triceps Brachii muscle recruitment pattern among children with CP and TD in forward reach task. Thirty-eight children (n=19 CP and n=19 TD) by recording Electromyogram (EMG), after obtaining ethical clearance. Rectified EMG signals determined the onset of muscle activation, and data were analyzed using unpaired Student’s ‘t’-test and Chi-square test.
Results: In CP, there was a greater likelihood of Biceps Brachii (flexor) firing prior to Triceps Brachii as compared to TD, for whom the greater probability of Triceps Brachii firing first. (Likelihood ratio (LLR) =28.164; p<0.001). In TD children, the Triceps Brachii have elevated bio-potential, which was generated earlier during the task, followed by Biceps Brachii. As in the CP group, the sequence was reversed (LLR 28.164; p<0.001).
Conclusion: The extensors were found to be firing first in CP children as opposed to TD.
