Reducing negative attitudes toward older adults and increasing advocacy for policies to support older adults: Bayesian analysis approach

As the world's population is aging, it is necessary to create societies in which older adults and young people can live together comfortably. Reducing young people's negative attitudes toward older adults is a pressing issue. Given the unique characteristics of older adults, which most people will eventually become, we focused on how long people believe it will be before they become older adults (i.e., the subjective time of becoming older). To examine our hypotheses, we performed a Bayesian analysis, which has attracted considerable attention in psychological research in recent years. In Studies 1 and 2, even after controlling for variables such as youth identity and aging anxiety, those with a longer subjective time of becoming older had more negative attitudes toward older adults and lower advocacy for policies to support older adults. In Study 3, we examined the effect of shortening the participants' subjective time of becoming older by presenting an explanatory text on the stereotype embodiment theory and several related empirical findings. We observed decreased negative attitudes toward both the young-old and old-old groups and increased advocacy for policies to support older adults. In the supplemental experiment, the experimental manipulation used in Study 3 reduced participants' aging anxiety. Future studies should elaborate on the negative attitudes toward a broad subgroup of older adults, and examine the perceived relative importance of policies to support older adults compared with policies in other areas.

"In teacher work you must understand others and have empathy for them!”

This study investigates the ways in which language teachers perceive the emotional aspects of language teaching and which beliefs they link with these emotions.

Investigating the Role of Nutrition in Enhancing Immunity During the COVID-19 Pandemic: Twitter Text-Mining Analysis.

The COVID-19 pandemic has brought to the spotlight the critical role played by a balanced and healthy diet in bolstering the human immune system. There is burgeoning interest in nutrition-related information on social media platforms like Twitter. There is a critical need to assess and understand public opinion, attitudes, and sentiments toward nutrition-related information shared on Twitter. This study uses text mining to analyze nutrition-related messages on Twitter to identify and analyze how the general public perceives various food groups and diets for improving immunity to the SARS-CoV-2 virus. We gathered 71,178 nutrition-related tweets that were posted between January 01, 2020, and September 30, 2020. The Correlated Explanation text mining algorithm was used to identify frequently discussed topics that users mentioned as contributing to immunity building against SARS-CoV-2. We assessed the relative importance of these topics and performed a sentiment analysis. We also qualitatively examined the tweets to gain a closer understanding of nutrition-related topics and food groups. Text-mining yielded 10 topics that users discussed frequently on Twitter, viz proteins, whole grains, fruits, vegetables, dairy-related, spices and herbs, fluids, supplements, avoidable foods, and specialty diets. Supplements were the most frequently discussed topic (23,913/71,178, 33.6%) with a higher proportion (20,935/23,913, 87.75%) exhibiting a positive sentiment with a score of 0.41. Consuming fluids (17,685/71,178, 24.85%) and fruits (14,807/71,178, 20.80%) were the second and third most frequent topics with favorable, positive sentiments. Spices and herbs (8719/71,178, 12.25%) and avoidable foods (8619/71,178, 12.11%) were also frequently discussed. Negative sentiments were observed for a higher proportion of avoidable foods (7627/8619, 84.31%) with a sentiment score of -0.39. This study identified 10 important food groups and associated sentiments that users discussed as a means to improve immunity. Our findings can help dieticians and nutritionists to frame appropriate interventions and diet programs.

Evaluation of Students' Mastery of Semantic Entailment as Reflected in Their Descriptive Text Writing

Some challenges in teaching writing are making students interpret, analyze, and build reasoning for a coherent text. To address this issue, such research is included in a branch of linguistics, namely semantics. This research evaluates the students’ mastery of semantic entailment as reflected in their descriptive text writing. The research method applied was a descriptive qualitative design. The data was taken from the 30 explanatory texts written by the eighth-graders of MTs Ar Ridlo Pekuncen 2022/2023. The technique of collecting data was document text. The method of data analysis was triangulation. The results revealed that the evaluation of students’ mastery of one-way entailment is 90%; there were 27 of 30 students. Almost all of the students (generally) are very masterful. Next, the evaluation of students’ mastery of two-way entailment is 36.67% (N=11). Furthermore, only 30.00% of the students (N=9) can master negative entailment. The least (a fraction) mastered was metaphorical entailment, 13.33% (N=4). The easiest for students to master was the one-way entailment. In contrast, the metaphorical entailment was the most difficult. Thus, it can be safely said that the students have difficulty imagining the object in their sentences. For that reason, future research may investigate the factors that cause problems in metaphorical entailment among students.

Genre-Based Indonesian Language Learning Scientific Approach and Method

This study aims to analyze the scientific approach and method of learning and show the results in genre-based Indonesian language learning. This study used a qualitative approach. The data were collected from three sources: literature review, student learning outcomes, and questionnaire results. Data on students’ learning outcomes and views were explicitly taken from two groups. The first group consisted of 113 respondents who were asked to construct literary texts. The second group consisted of 105 respondents who were asked to construct exposition texts. The library research data was analyzed using theoretical and conceptual analysis, while the students’ learning outcome data were analyzed qualitatively and quantitatively. The data from the questionnaire were analyzed by quantitative analysis. Based on the analysis of the three forms of data, it was discovered that; (a) the terms scientific approach and method were relevant to genre-based (Indonesian) language learning, (b) scientific as a learning method (scientific method) could be used by teachers as a method in delivering learning material as well as by students to construct texts as a form of learning outcomes, (c) scientific method guides students to construct text systematically, in controlled, empirically, and analytically through scientific stages, and (d) there was a gap between the views of the students who think that the scientific method could guide students in constructing text and enhancing the quality of text production. With a score of 41.43, 91.15% of the students in the first group believed that the scientific approach might help students produce texts with high-quality output outcomes. 90% of the 105 respondents in the second group said that the scientific approach might help students create explanation texts even though the degree of text creation quality is low (score: 49.5). The students’ less expressive language use was to blame for this.
