From Artifacts to Interactivity: Optimizing Museum Outreach through Technology and Inclusivity

With the development of society, people are paying more and more attention to cultural protection, and museums have become the core of protecting and sharing cultural heritage. Today's museums are not just exhibition halls. They are educational centers and social spaces that help cultivate a sense of history, cultural identity, and community cohesion. However, many traditional museum practices are difficult to attract modern audiences, especially young tourists who pursue immersive experiences. This study analyzed the influencing factors of well-organized and well-designed promotional activities in museums, with a focus on exploring how to strengthen the role of museums as educational, social, and cultural resources. By studying core principles such as structured planning, creativity, and feasibility, this article provides feasible suggestions for strengthening museum promotion strategies. With the integration of modern technology, enhanced interactivity, and widespread use of digital media and targeted activities, museums have the opportunity to expand their audience, cultivate sustained connections, and promote cultural diversity. The study ultimately emphasizes the value of strategic external connections and positions museums as active contributors to cultural dialogue. These perspectives aim to help museums adapt to technological advancements, change public expectations, and lay the foundation for further research on digital participation, visitor protection, and international cultural exchange.

An Interval Fuzzy Programming Approach to Solve a Green Intermodal Routing Problem for Timber Transportation Under Uncertain Information

This study investigates an intermodal routing problem for transporting wood from a storage yard of the timber harvest area to a timber mill, in which the transfer nodes in the intermodal transportation network have multiple service time windows. To improve the environmental sustainability of timber transportation, a carbon tax policy is employed in the routing to reduce the carbon emissions. Uncertain information on the capacities and carbon emission factors of the transportation activities in the intermodal transportation network is modeled using interval fuzzy numbers to enhance the feasibility of the routing optimization in the actual timber transportation. Based on the above consideration, an interval fuzzy nonlinear optimization model is established to handle the specific routing problem. Model defuzzification and linearization are then conducted to obtain an equivalent formulation that is crisp and linear to make the global optimum solution attainable. A numerical experiment is conducted to verify the feasibility of the proposed model, and it reveals the influence of the optimization level and service time windows on the routing optimization, and it confirms that intermodal transportation is suitable for timber transportation. This experiment also analyzes the feasibility of a carbon tax policy in reducing the carbon emissions of timber transportation, and it finds that the performance of this policy is determined by the optimization level given by the timber mill and is not always feasible in all cases. For the case where a carbon tax policy is infeasible, this study proposes a bi-objective optimization that can use Pareto solutions to balance the economic and environmental objectives as an alternative. The bi-objective optimization further shows the relationship between lowering the transportation costs, reducing the carbon emissions, and enhancing the reliability on capacity and budget by improving the optimization level. The conclusions provide managerial insights that can help the timber mill and intermodal transportation operator organize cost-efficient, low-carbon, and reliable intermodal transportation for timber distribution, and support sustainable forest logistics.

Impact Factors of Student's Abandon Learning Activities: Case Study in Dili

This research aims to explore the factors causing the problem of abandoned learning and gather perspectives to solve the problem of abandoned learning activities. This is a case study with a qualitative approach. This study was conducted in 18 schools, where the informants were 82 people from June to December 2021. The result of this study discovered internal and external factors. The internal factors included students’ interest and motivation, discipline and attitude, disinterest, and physiological. The external factors were family, teachers, school, and peers. While dealing with these factors, researchers concluded that school conditions and the quality of teachers promoted non-violent education. The results suggested that schools must design and reinforce the control instruments and implement school counseling. The Ministry of Education recruits competent and professional teachers; parents and society in general establish a co-operative spirit, paying attention to the students to obey the rules. The next research needs to involve another subject, schools at different levels. Keywords: factors, abandon, learning activities

Individual differences in music-induced interpersonal synchronization and self–other integration: the role of creativity and empathy

It has been demonstrated that moving together in synchrony to music makes us feel connected. Yet, little is known about the individual differences that shape the relationship between interpersonal synchronization to music and social bonding. The present research tests the hypothesis that this association is influenced by differences in empathy and creativity–two highly relevant factors in many musical activities. We implemented a synchronization task featuring a virtual drummer and measured self–other integration (SOI), a core component of social bonding. We employed a dual-measurement paradigm, incorporating both an explicit assessment ( Inclusion of Other in the Self scale) and an implicit assessment ( joint-Simon effect ) of SOI. Surprisingly, our analysis did not reveal explicit and implicit measurements correlating, nor were they similarly affected by interpersonal synchronization. This raises questions about the assessment of SOI in interpersonal synchronization experiments. Furthermore, we observed no moderating role of empathy or creativity in the association between interpersonal synchronization and SOI. Nevertheless, we found creativity to correlate with SOI. In light of this finding, we recommend placing greater emphasis on creativity as a decisive factor in the study of musical interaction.

Effectiveness of donning and doffing personal protective equipment education using video debriefing among Korean undergraduate nursing students

BackgroundThe use of appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) in healthcare settings is a very important factor of infection control activities to prevent transmission of infection. In this study, we aimed to develop a non-face-to-face method that can reduce transmission of infection and an educational method that allows self-learning and self-training, and verify the effectiveness of a donning and doffing PPE education using video debriefing on third-year nursing students in clinical train.MethodsThe researcher assigned groups through random sampling using a random number table from the list of research subjects who agreed to participate. Therefore, 35 subjects in the experimental group with an education on donning and doffing PPE using video debriefing and 34 subjects in the control group with video-based training (VBT) were participated in April 2023 at a university in Incheon, South Korea. The evaluation phase involved verifying effects of the education on observer evaluation donningand doffing PPE performance and self-evaluation donningand doffing PPE performance. Satisfaction with the education also assessed immediately after intervention by the experimental group.ResultsThe experimental group had significantly higher scores for observer evaluationdonning (t = 7.84, p < .001) and observer evaluation doffing (t = 6.52, p < .001) PPE performances than the control group. However, there was no significant difference in self-evaluation donning (t = 0.98, p < .330) or doffing PPE performance (t = 0.17, p < .869) between the two groups. In the experimental group that applied video debriefing, learning satisfaction was 4.33 ± 0.82 points out of 5 points.ConclusionsThe education on donning and doffing PPE applying video debriefing was effective. If the education developed in this study is used as a self-learning method to improve the infection control capacity necessary to respond to a disaster crisis caused by infectious diseases, it is considered to be useful for preventing the transmission of infectious diseases in the future.

The Impact of Agricultural Food Retailers’ ESG Activities on Purchase Intention: The Mediating Effect of Consumer ESG Perception

In recent years, climate issues have become a common challenge for all mankind. It is urgent and important to protect the environment, promote green transformation, and realize sustainable development. Consequently, increasing attention is being paid to ESG (environmental, social, and governance) actions. This study empirically investigated the effect of companies’ ESG activities on the ESG perceptions and purchase intentions of agricultural food consumers in Hebei Province, China, using structural equation modeling. The results of the study show that, firstly, the environmental and social factors of ESG activities had a significant positive effect on consumer ESG perception while governance had a non-significant effect on consumer ESG perception. Secondly, the environmental, social, and governance components of ESG activities had a significant positive effect on purchase intention. Thirdly, there was a significant mediating effect of consumer ESG perception (environmental and social, excluding governance). The theoretical contribution of this study is to reveal the important role of consumers’ ESG perceptions and to emphasize the unique contribution of governance factors in purchase intentions. In addition, this study supports the effect of ESG activities on agri-food consumer behavior through empirical data, which provides a new theoretical perspective on agri-food retailers’ ESG practices and helps to further promote the green transformation of Chinese agricultural food retailers.

Mountain sport activities, affective state, and mental health – A narrative review

A large body of literature indicates that physical activity in general is associated with a variety of health benefits. Mountain sport activities (e.g., mountain hiking, climbing, mountaineering, or skiing) are considered popular modalities of physical activity in both inhabitants of and tourists in mountainous areas. In addition, the majority of mountain sport activities show characteristics that may be favorable for a positive influence on mental health. However, the potential of mountain sport activities on mental health parameters (including, but not limited to affective state, stress, coping abilities, self-efficacy, and quality of life) has been less researched compared to non-mountain sport activities. Therefore, the aims of the present narrative review are to identify characteristics of mountain sport activities related to potential influences on mental health and to summarize current findings on the acute and longer-term effects of sport activities in mountainous areas on affective state and on mental health in general. Furthermore, hypotheses aiming to explain these effects are discussed. Although mountain sport activities show a large diversity in their features, many modalities share characteristics that can be considered relevant in the context of both short-term effects on affective states and of longer-term effects on mental health (Figure 1). Already existing secondary literature focusing specifically on mountain sport activities is limited to one systematic review in the context of mountaineering (Jackman et al., 2020) and one narrative review on health effects of skiing (Burtscher et al., 2019). Original articles for acute effects on affective state and for longer-term effects on mental health parameters were found for mountaineering/alpine climbing, sport climbing, mountain hiking, skiing, and mountain biking. In summary, it can be said that single bouts of mountain sport activities have the potential to positively influence affective state. Observations on negative affective state during the activity are explained by the focus that the participants need to overcome the challenges during the activities. Positive longer-term effects on mental health by mountain sport activity programs are reported in literature. Negative effects on mental health are reported less frequently and occur primarily in the case of accidents or are related to the strenuous experiences during mountaineering expeditions. Potential benefits of mountain sport activities can be explained using approaches related to the physical activity (similar to non-mountain sport activities, e.g., self-efficacy hypothesis) and the environmental conditions in which the activities are practiced (e.g., attention restoration theory). However, the number of studies on hypotheses explaining mental health effects is limited. In addition, not all modalities of mountain sport activities are represented in the literature. In particular, mechanistic considerations of the decisive factors in the various mountain sport activities that can influence mental health would be desirable. References Burtscher, M., Federolf, P.

THE IMPACT OF TAXATION ON INTERNATIONAL COMMERCE AND EXCHANGE RATE ON IMPORTS

The globalization of capital markets has accelerated capital movements, turning the world into one large marketplace. International trade has become an important tool in shaping the financial structure of countries. However, elements such as customs duties and import quotas play a decisive role in trade between countries. Taxes, which are a financial policy tool of countries, are used to influence foreign trade, particularly imports. One of the determining factors in foreign trade activities is the exchange rate. The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of taxes on imports and the change in the nominal exchange rate on the import volume of goods and services. In this study, which examined 20 Organization for Economic Co-Operation and Development (OECD) countries with data for the period 1999-2021 taken from the World Bank official website, the model was analyzed with the help of AR (1) Residual Random Effects Generalized Least Squares Regression Model Estimator. The analysis revealed that increases in international trade taxes and exchange rate increases reduce the import volume. This result empirically supports the conclusion that taxes on international trade and reductions in exchange rates increase import volume.

Dynamics of indicators of cadets’ psycho-emotional state in the process of educational and combat activities

The full-scale war in Ukraine, which has been going on for the third year, has a negative impact on both the physical and psycho-emotional states of military servicemen of all specialties. Training and combat activities of cadets in field environment, in the absence of physical exercises, can lead to a decrease in the emotional state, deterioration of well-being, mood, working capacity of cadets, and the emergence of neuro-emotional stress. The article is devoted to the study of the dynamics of indicators of cadets’ psycho- emotional state during the educational and combat activities in the field environment. Male cadets of the Military Institute of Tank Troops of the National Technical University «Kharkiv Polytechnic Institute» were involved in the research, which was conducted in 2023-2024. To study the indicators of the cadets’ psycho-emotional state, we used three psychodiagnostic methods: "Self-assessment of the emotional state", "Scaled self-assessment of the psycho-physiological state", "Evaluation of neuro-emotional stress". Research methods: analysis and generalization of literary sources, methods of psychodiagnostics, methods of mathematical statistics. Deterioration of indicators of the psycho-emotional state of cadets of all courses of study during field classes of different duration according to all psychodiagnostic methods was revealed. The most pronounced negative changes are observed during longer field classes, and depending on the year of study, in junior year cadets. This may be due to insufficient emotional resistance to the stressful factors of educational and combat activities in junior cadets. Also, the obtained results allow us to assert the insufficient effectiveness of the traditional method of organizing and conducting physical training of cadets in field environment and the need for its improvement. In the future, we plan to investigate the impact of sports games on the recovery of cadets’ psycho-emotional state after field training of different durations.

Effects of leguminous green manure-crop rotation on soil enzyme activities and stoichiometry

Abstract As a crucial strategy for sustainable agricultural production, green manure-crop rotation can regulate soil nutrient cycling and decrease the reliance on nitrogen fertilizers. However, we still lack a comprehensive understanding of the changes in soil eco-enzyme activities, microbial metabolism, and nutrient limitations caused by leguminous green manure crop rotation. Here, we conducted field experiments of leguminous green manure-crop rotation across China to analyze soil extracellular enzyme activities, specifically β-glucosidase (BG), N-acetyl-β-D-glucosaminidase (NAG), leucine aminopeptidase (LAP), and acid phosphatase (AP). The study revealed that long-term green manure-crop rotation increased carbon and nitrogen accumulation in farmland, with a significant average increase of 20.1% and 36.4% in BG, AP enzyme activities in topsoil, while showing a decrease in ln(NAG+LAP):ln(AP) ratios. The ratios of ln(BG):ln(NAG+LAP) and ln(NAG+LAP):ln(AP) in soil across various regions were typically below 1:1, indicating that soil microbial activity is more constrained by nitrogen and phosphorus nutrients rather than by carbon. Precipitation, temperature, soil total carbon, and total nitrogen were identified as key environmental factors for extracellular enzyme activities and stoichiometric ratios. Our study highlights that the green manure-crop rotation alleviates nitrogen limitation while enhancing phosphorus limitation, and is closely related to the accumulation of total carbon and nitrogen in the soil.

NITROGEN LIMITATION AND CHANGES IN SALINITY AFFECTS CHEMICAL-PROXIMATE-COMPOSITION OF Thalassiosira weissflogii

Microalgae are a crucial factor in aquaculture activities, since they are used as live food in the larvae stage of shrimp, mollusks, and fish. Nevertheless, just a few microalga species are produce. In this study we evaluate the effect of salinity at 25, 35, 45 and 55 practical salinity unit (psu), in F/2 media as control group and two nitrogen (NaNO3) limited media, F/4 and F/8 on the diatom Thalassiosira weissflogii. To value the development of the diatom, kinetic growth curves, pH, biomass production and chemical-proximate composition were estimated. The highest growth rate and organic matter values were in media F/4 and 35 psu. Meanwhile, media F/8 at 55 psu presented the highest amount of ash and a very low growth rate. T. weissflogii is affected by high salinity concentration, however the limitation of nitrogen with 25 and 35 psu did not affect growth considerably. Concerning the chemical-proximate composition of T. weissflogii, media F/4 at 25 psu, presented the highest percentages of carbohydrates and proteins. In the same way, medium F2 at 25 psu, reported the highest amounts of carotenes. The results showed that high salinity was the variable that major affected the cell density, biomass production and chemical-proximate composition of T. weissflogii.

Participation and Continuation Factors of Volunteer Activities Among Retired Government Employees: Evidence from South Korea

Pemilihan Supplier Kedelai dengan Metode AHP Dan TOPSIS (Studi Kasus UKM Tahu Pak Wit Di Desa Ledok Kulon, Bojonegoro)

Raw materials as the most important factors in production activities, are obtained from suppliers. Suppliers are partners who ensure the availability of raw materials for the continuity of the company's production. Therefore, it is necessary for companies to choose the right supplier. The problem that occurs in Pak Wit's Tofu SME is that SMEs often change suppliers in procuring soybean raw materials because the SMEs do not have a fixed soybean supplier. This fact results in no certainty of raw materials from the supplier so that SMEs often experience a shortage of quality raw materials. This study aims to select the best supplier according to the criteria set by SMEs. There are 4 suppliers who are candidates with 4 criterias (price, quality, service and flexibility in delivery) used in choosing the best supplier. This research uses AHP to weight the criteria and TOPSIS to rank suppliers. The results of calculations with AHP found that the quality criteria were the first priority, with a value of 0.58. While with the TOPSIS method it was found that supplier 2 was the selected supplier with the highest preference of 0.941.
