Echoes of Empowerment: Job Satisfaction among Female Sale Representatives at Mega Malls in Multan

Aim of the Study: This study’s aims are to find the satisfaction among female sales representatives with interpersonal connection related to the job, to identify the social and familial determinants of females and professional and economic factors of female sale representative and their job satisfaction. Methodology: The design of this study was quantitative. In this cross sectional study researcher used Multan city as universe. Seven mega malls of Multan were selected as sample. Sampling technique was non probability particularly purposive sampling was operationalized. Data was gathered from sample of 384 respondents. For data collection interview schedule was used as an instrument having closed ended questions. Five point Likert scale was used to measure degree of agreement with the questions. Each respondent was personally visited by the researcher. Research ethics were ensured while data collection. SPSS was used for data analysis where descriptive and inferential statistics were applied. Findings: Study found that female employees and work satisfaction has a greater relationship and work has influence on level of satisfaction of employees. According to the current study, some working women found happy with their occupations when their managers and coworkers act well, and trust among coworkers encourages employees to give their jobs their whole focus. Since men are more likely to engage with women and prefer malls with a strong female population, many women feel that men are given less significance than women at shopping malls. In a similar vein, some women favor female employees because they are happy when buy something. Conclusion: Study concludes that there is an influence of different factors on female employees' job satisfaction, such as income, promotion, and working conditions, as well as other encouraging and motivating elements.

The biogeography of gastrointestinal mucosal microbiota of beef cattle at harvest

IntroductionThe gastrointestinal microbiota profoundly influences the health and productivity of animals. This study aimed to characterize microbial community structures of the mouth, gastrointestinal tract (GIT), and feces of cattle.MethodsSamples were collected from 18 Akaushi crossbred steers at harvest from multiple locations, including the oral cavity, rumen, abomasum, duodenum, jejunum, ileum, cecum, spiral colon, distal colon, and feces. These cattle were raised without exposure to antimicrobial drugs or hormone implants. Total microbial abundance was assessed using qPCR targeting the V3–V4 region of the 16S rRNA gene, and microbial community composition was evaluated through 16S rRNA gene sequencing.ResultsTotal microbial abundance was lesser in the small intestine than in other GIT regions (p ≤ 0.05). Additionally, microbial communities in the small intestine had lower richness and diversity than other regions (p ≤ 0.05). Microbial community compositions were measurably different along the GIT, with greater relatedness in adjacent GIT sections when progressing from oral to aboral locations. Firmicutes, Bacteroidota, and Actinobacteria were the dominant phyla in all samples. However, variations in composition were evident at lower taxonomic levels within these dominant phyla among samples from different regions. Genera previously associated with healthy gut microbiome communities were observed in low abundance across GIT regions. Taxa historically associated with liver abscesses (e.g., Fusobacterium and Trueperella) were detected in low abundance (≤0.02% relative abundance) throughout the GIT. In contrast, Bacteroides, which recently has been identified as a dominant feature in many liver abscesses, was observed in greater relative abundance (5.2% on average) in the hindgut.DiscussionThis study provides an in-depth evaluation of the GIT of harvest-ready Akaushi crossbred cattle of varying growth rates. Clear differences exist in the abundance and composition of microbial populations at different points of the GIT. Unfortunately, no single GIT location can adequately represent the microbial communities of the entire GIT, which has important implications for future research. Additionally, examining microbiome data only at the phylum level likely oversimplifies important complexities of the microbial community structures, and investigations of lower taxonomic ranks should be included.

Effects of Ecological Factors on Forest Site Productivity in Crimean Pine Stands of the Kastamonu Region

Aim of study: In this study, relationships between ecological factors including topography, climate, soil properties and site productivity of Crimean pine (Pinus nigra J.F. Arnold subsp. pallasiana (Lamb.) Holmboe) stands in the Kastamonu region of Türkiye were investigated. Area of study: The study was conducted in Crimean pine stands of Kastamonu region, northwestern Türkiye. Material and method: A total of thirty-six temporary sample plots inventoried from naturally regenerated pure Crimean pine stands were used in this study. Main results: Our results indicated that climatic factors including precipitation and temperature had the greatest relationship between site productivity. Since climatic factors showed significant differences between the low and high site index classes, they can be reliably used for site classification for this species in the region. Besides, Principal Component Analysis (PCA) showed a strong separation between the poor and high productive sites, considering these variables. The PCA explained 68.7% of the total variation, with PC1 explaining 37.2% and PC2 explaining 31.5% of the data. Research highlights: Crimean pine showed an abstemious characteristic in terms of soil requirements. However, it was also concluded that it has higher growth potential with higher precipitation. The results of this study shows not only an optimal site conditions of Crimean pine, but also additional insights for ecologists and forest managers in determining the decision making for forest management and afforestation applications.

Human resource management that has been applied in the management of the Islamic Malahayati Hospital is very good so that the Islamic Malahayati Hospital gets a different assessment compared to other hospitals in Medan which implemented the integrated ISO 9001;2008 management system. This study aims to determine how the existing resource management in the Islamic Malahayati Hospital. This type of research is a quantitative study with a cross-sectional study approach. The population in this study were all nurses at Islamic Malahayati Hospital as many as 190 civil servant nurses with a sample of 129 people. The sampling technique in this study used proportional random sampling. Data analysis was performed by univariate, bivariate with chi-square test and multivariate analysis with logistic regression. There is a relationship between recruitment and selection (p-value = 0.000), training and promotion (p- value 0.000), job appraisal, and salary management (p values = 0.000), with the performance of nurses at the Islamic Malahayati Hospital. Promotion and training have the greatest relationship with nurse performance with an OR value of 15,934. It is recommended to the hospital to increase the training and promotion of health workers, especially by involving more employees, in this case, nurses in training activities or increasing their capacity, and it is necessary to have a promotion or increase in positions that are in accordance with the work of nurses so that nurses are more active and more motivated in improving their performance while working in the hospital.

The relationship between cognitive frailty, physical frailty and malnutrition in Turkish older adults

ObjectiveThe aim of this study was to assess the relationship between cognitive and physical frailty and malnutrition in older adults. MethodsThe study was cross-sectional and observational. A total of 992 patients who applied to the geriatric outpatient clinic between January 2018 and December 2022 were included in the study. All patients underwent comprehensive geriatric assessment. Demographic characteristics, geriatric syndromes, comorbidities, and laboratory parameters were recorded. Fried's Frailty Scale was used to determine physical frailty. The Mini Nutritional Assessment Short Form was performed to determine nutritional status. Cognitive frailty was defined as the coexistence of physical frailty and mild cognitive impairment. ResultsOf 992 patients participating in the study, 66% were female, and the mean age was 73.2 ± 7.4. The rate of physical frailty was 13.4%, and 96 patients were cognitively frail. Malnutrition rates were 18.8%, 12.5%, and 2.2% in the cognitive frailty, physical frailty, and healthy control groups, respectively. The healthy control group had a lower median age, fewer geriatric syndromes (excluding orthostatic hypotension), and lower rates of diabetes and hypertension than the frailty groups. The frequency of malnutrition was similar in the cognitive and physical frailty groups. The cognitive frailty group had higher median age, sarcopenia rate, and Timed Up and Go duration; were less likely to be female; and showed lower albumin, mobility, and functionality scores than the physical frailty group (P < 0.05). After adjusting for demographic characteristics, comorbidities, geriatric syndromes, and laboratory parameters, cognitive frailty showed a stronger relationship with malnutrition (odds ratio 1.96, confidence interval 1.13–5.04, P = 0.04). ConclusionsCognitive and physical frailty were found to be associated with malnutrition in older adults. Even after accounting for confounding factors, it appears that cognitive frailty is more closely related to nutritional status than physical frailty.

Employees’ Motivation and Local Governments Performance in Tanzania: A Case Mvomero District Council

Employee motivation is a universal concept that is accepted by human resource practitioners as a tool to improve organizational performance. This study sought to examine the effects of employee motivation in improving performance in local governments in Tanzania. The study aims at examining the contribution of employee motivation to local governments in Tanzania. This paper adopted a research case design whereby Mvomero District Council was the case study. A sample size of 78 respondents was taken for the study. The study adopted a mixed approach whereby qualitative and quantitative approaches in the data collection process. The data was collected through key informant interviews and questionnaires. The findings revealed that the majority of the respondents were negative about the employee motivation provided in Mvomero District Council, especially at ward and village levels. The findings also, found that there is a positive relationship between employees’ motivation and employees’ performance. The higher the employee’s motivation the higher the employee’s performance. The study indicated that employees are motivated by financial motivation rather than non-financial motivation. The study concluded that there is a greater relationship between employee performance and employee motivation and employees in rural settings are less motivated compared to their counterparts in an urban setting. The study recommended that the government incentives policies should be reversed not only to motivate top management levels and consider middle and lower levels employees. The study also, recommended for the Mvomero District Council to improve the working conditions of the employees who are working in remote areas

Genomics and Phylogeny of Rhodotorula glutinis and Rhodotorula kratochvilovae Isolated from the Northern Peruvian Andes

Genomes of oleaginous yeast strains Rhodotorula glutinis CON-5 and Rhodotorula kratochvilovae POR-3, isolated from areas in the northern Peruvian Andes using SPAdes, were sequenced and assembled applying Illumina and de novo. Genomes of 20,515,696 and 20,738,185 bp, respectively, were determined. From the structural and functional annotations, the Basidiomycota phylum showed a similarity of 76.8% and 86.5% with 6,976 and 8,124 pairs of proteins in both yeasts respectively, with homologues in the UniProt data bank. Using OrthoVenn, a relationship between both yeasts was obtained from 450 orthologous groups. Likewise, the above-mentioned yeasts and R. toruloides (oleaginous Basidiomycota) showed 1,574 orthologous groups, indicating a good relationship. Construction of phylogenetic trees of genes encoding metabolic enzymes was also carried out, based on the ITS sequences which showed that CON-5 and POR-3 have a greater relationship with R. graminis. Their phylogenetic relationship was ascertained and determined that the enzymes involved in the metabolism of CON-5 and POR-3 are related to each other. It was also found that the protein sequences of the Basidiomycota phylum differ from Ascomycota. The study showed functional evidence regarding the lipid accumulation phenotype, an important aspect in the context of obtaining lipids or oleochemicals.

The role of nursing care continuity report in predicting length of hospital stay in older people: A retrospective cohort study.

The Nursing Care Continuity Report (NCCR) is a tool for evaluating the quality of nursing care during hospital admission. To explore the role of the NCCR in predicting longer length of stay (LOS) in older adults (≥65 years) admitted to a tertiary hospital and determine possible clinical differences at discharge between patients who had a short LOS (≤7 days) and a prolonged LOS (>7 days). A retrospective cohort study was conducted including all patients with a completed NCCR admitted to the hospital between 2015 and 2019. Sociodemographic data, risk of pressure injuries, level of dependence, presence and intensity of pain, and presence and type of pressure injury were the variables registered in the NCCR. A total of 41,354 patients were included in this study, with a mean age of 78 years, of whom 47% were female. At admission, 21% of patients were at potential risk of developing pressure ulcers. Age, admission to the internal or respiratory medicine unit, and having at least medium risk of developing pressure ulcers were the predictors of prolonged LOS using a random sample of 950 patients. At discharge, patients with prolonged LOS presented higher risk of pressure ulcers and a higher level of dependency and were more likely to present hospital-acquired pressure ulcers. Older adults from the internal or respiratory medicine unit who exhibited higher risk of pressure ulcers were related to a prolonged LOS, a higher level of dependency, and hospital-acquired ulcers at hospital discharge. Identifying clinical data that have a greater relationship with LOS could be a useful tool for nursing management and for the implementation of strategies to prevent adverse events during hospitalisation. No direct patient contact was made during the data collection.

The Readiness of The United Arab Emirates (UAE) Investors to Use Blockchain Technology in Stock Market

This study set out to identify the factors influencing the intention of investors in the United Arab Emirates to adopt blockchain technology in the stock market. Based on the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT), a theoretical model was developed. 274 UAE investors were surveyed to test the hypotheses, and then the results were analysed using the structural equation modelling. Ultimately, the findings show that behavioral intention toward the use of blockchain technology is positively influenced by performance anticipation, social influence, and trust. Additionally, the results showed that older investors and investors with more years of blockchain technology experience had a greater relationship between facilitating conditions and behavioral intention toward blockchain adoption in the stock market, and the relationship between social influence and behavioral intention toward blockchain adoption was stronger for women and investors with less years of blockchain technology experience.

Influence of interruptions in radiation therapy on long-term results of treatment of stage I-III head and neck cancers in the absence of surgical and chemoradiotherapy

Despite the fact that head and neck tumors are very sensitive to radiation treatment, patients who have completed a course of radiation therapy have a high rate of recurrence and mortality from the underlying disease.The aim of the study was to analyze the event-free survival of patients who completed a course of radiation therapy for stage I-III head and neck cancer according to a radical program under the influence of a number of independent factors such as age, gender, total focal dose, disease stage, duration of a break in a split course of radiation therapy.The effect of the duration of interruption on survival was assessed by analyzing the treatment regimens for patients who received radiation treatment for stage I-III head and neck cancer according to a radical program from 2016 to 2018 at the Brest Regional Oncological Dispensary. Statistical processing of the obtained data included the analysis by the Cox regression method. Data were analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier method to evaluate the outcome.In the multivariate analysis, it was found that the disease stage has the greatest relationship with event-free survival (p &lt; 0.01). The same trend is observed for the duration of interruption in radiotherapy (p &lt; 0.05). The cumulative survival was significantly higher in the group of patients with treatment interruption of less than 3 weeks compared to the group of patients who completed treatment more than 3 weeks apart (80.00 % vs 49.06 %). If the duration of the break is less than 3 weeks, the clinical stage (T1-T3) is not a factor influencing patient survival.Accounting for the effect of interruptions in the course of radiotherapy and the understanding the influence of controllable factors is essential for optimal treatment strategies.

Relationship Between Coffee Consumption Habits and Farmers’ Blood Glucose Levels in Jenggawah Village, Jenggawah Subdistrict, Jember Regency

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a chronic metabolic disorder and a major global problem. Coffee contains several bioactive compounds, such as caffeine, chlorogenic acid, trigonelline, cafestol, and kahweol, associated with a reduced risk of type 2 DM. This study aimed to assess the relationship between coffee consumption habits and blood glucose levels of farmers in Jenggawah Village, Jenggawah Subdistrict, Jember Regency. We used a cross-sectional study design. The sample of this study was 137 farmers who were taken by purposive sampling. Assessment of coffee consumption habits was conducted using a questionnaire. At the same time, data on random blood glucose levels were obtained from medical records of the Bakti Sosial Akbar dan Pengobatan Gratis Agromedis activities in Jenggawah Village in June 2022. Statistical analysis was performed using the Kruskall-Wallis test, and multivariate analysis using linear regression. The results showed that there was no statistically significant difference in random blood glucose levels between groups based on the variable type of coffee consumed (p=0.212), the level of coffee consumption (p=0.211), and the amount of sugar added to the coffee (p=0.086). However, the linear regression test results showed that the amount of added sugar in coffee had the greatest relationship with blood glucose levels compared to other independent variables (p=0.031). In conclusion, there was no relationship between coffee consumption habits and random blood glucose levels of farmers in Jenggawah Village. Further research is needed to confirm these findings.

Photodegradation of dyes using electrospun polymeric membranes containing titanium oxide and iron

This study aimed to analyze the photocatalytic degradation of Reactive Red 195, a textile dye belonging to the class of azo dyes. For this, a polymer membrane of Ecovio® (polymeric blend formed by PBAT/PLA) was obtained by the electrospinning technique, with the incorporation of semiconductors titanium dioxide (TiO2-R) and magnetite iron oxide (Fe3O4-M). The hydrophobic nature of the membrane required the treatment with sodium hydroxide (NaOH), in this way, the membranes were characterized with and without the semiconductors, as well as, with or without the alkali treatment. The techniques used for characterization were: contact angle analysis, infrared spectroscopy with Fourier transform (FT-IR), thermogravimetrics (TGA), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and differential exploratory calorimetry (DSC). The contact angle analysis of the membrane surface showed that it was hydrophobic before treatment with NaOH, with an average contact angle of 121.45 ± 1.44° and consequently low humidity. After treatment, there was a change in the surface with a change of the average contact angle value to 80.68 ± 1.52° and an increase in wetness. The FT-IR spectroscopy identified bands characteristic of the Ecovio® functional groups in the polymer blend, and discreet changes occurring after alkaline treatment. The TGA analysis showed that the incorporation of two semiconductors and the alkaline treatment resulted in a decrease in thermal stability for both the PLA polymer and the PBAT due to the possible interaction of the TiO2-R and Fe3O4-M semi-conductors with the polymers that we can promote a lower arrangement of fibers. The DSC analysis indicated possible changes in the polymer's structure due to the presence of semiconductors and alkaline treatment. A decrease in melting calories of the treated membranes compared to the untreated membrane indicates possible hydrolysis of the polymers. In the DRX analysis, an increase in the intensity of the peaks of the polymer membrane containing the semiconductors and subjected to alkaline treatment was observed. However, comparing membranes containing the semiconductors with pure membranes (without the semiconductors) subjected or not to alkaline treatment, possibly an alteration in crystallinity had a greater relationship with the incorporation of the two semiconductors in the pure membrane subjected to alkaline treatment continued to have predominantly amorphic characteristics. After obtaining and characterizing the membrane, studies were conducted to evaluate its potential in the photodegradation of the Reactive Red 195, using an Ecovio® polymer membrane incorporated with TiO2-R and Fe3O4-M, and treated with an alkaline solution. The results showed degradation above 80% after 24 h, in addition, the potential for reuse of this membrane was analyzed in 4 cycles of photocatalytic degradation, which showed that in all the cycles using the same membrane, the degradation remained above 80%, but at the end of the fourth cycle, a membrane still intact but visually more fragile was noted. Kinetic studies have shown that degradation follows the pseudo-first-order kinetic model. After the degradation cycles, the Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) showed no new bands. Thus, the polymer membrane proved promising for the photodegradation of Reactive Red 195 given its efficiency, ease of separation from the reaction medium, and the possibility of reuse for several cycles.

Relationship between impaired attachment type and dark triad traits in patients with borderline personality disorder (pilot study)

The study shows how insecure attachment types (anxious and avoidant) are associated with traits of the «dark triad» (narcissism, psychopathy and Machiavellianism) in a sample of patients with borderline personality disorder. It was found that among the respondents, the greatest relationship was found in individuals with a predominance of the anxious type of attachment, who showed a statistically significant sharpening of such traits as: impulsiveness, manipulativeness, lack of sympathy and empathy («psychopathy»). And weakly expressed, relative to the sample, traits of demonstrativeness, egocentrism, inflated self-esteem (“narcissism”) and “Machiavellian” traits: a weak focus on moral standards, fixation on personal gain. There were no reliable data on the relationship between the avoidant type and dark triad traits in the course of the study, however, avoidant and anxious types are significantly correlated with low levels of psychological well-being among patients with borderline personality disorder.

Vaginal temperature modeling in Holstein cows and cluster analysis by the cophenetic correlation coefficient

The objective was to establish a model for the prediction and characterization of vaginal temperature in Holstein cows, based on environmental predictors and thermal comfort indices, through cluster analysis, validation by the cophenetic correlation coefficient, and multiple regression analysis. The micrometeorological characterization of the site was carried out by recording the air temperature (Tair), the relative humidity (RH), the black globe temperature (BGT), the black globe temperature and humidity (BGHI), and dew point temperature (TDP). The recording of vaginal temperature (Tv) was performed in eight dairy cows using temperature sensors, equipped with data loggers, coupled with intravaginal devices. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and cluster analysis (CA) by using the hierarchical agglomerative method based on the value of the cophenetic correlation coefficient (CCC >0.70), in which representative physiological models were established, characterizing the Tv through multiple regression. In the afternoon the coefficient of variation (CV) was low for all variables, indicating homogeneity of the meteorological variables and efficiency of the ventilation system. The temperature and humidity index (THI) was mild only on the morning. There was a variation of 0.28 °C of Tv between shifts, sufficient to characterize the condition of comfort and stress of the animal, with values above 39 °C indicating animal stress. Tv showed strong correlation with BGT, Tair, TDP and RH, assuming that physiological variables, such as Tv, tend to have greater relationship with abiotic variables. Empirical models were established for estimating Tv based on the analyses performed in this study. Model 1 is recommended for TDP ranges of 14.00–21.00 °C and RH of 30–100%, while model 2 can be used for Tair situations up to 35 °C. The regression models for estimating Tv are promising for characterizing the thermal comfort of dairy cows housed in compost barn systems.

What about physical education and Sustainable Development Goals? A scoping review

ABSTRACT Introduction The current economic, social and environmental problems faced by society are some of the most emerging concerns of the main governmental institutions. In this sense, Education for Sustainable Development and integration of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) into the education system seems to be a key link for its mitigation. Within education, physical education (PE) could provide positive synergy and contribute to achieve the SDGs. However, the relationship between PE and Sustainable Development is still in its nascent stage. Objective Overall, we aim to explore the ways in which the literature has addressed the SDGs and PE. To this end, this scoping review has two objectives. The first is to provide a synthesis of the research to date on PE and the SDGs, presenting the results in terms of the types of literature, methods, samples, provenance of authorship and the main findings. The second is to investigate which specific SDGs and targets have appeared most frequently in research within the field of PE. Method Due to the emergent nature of the topic under examination, we present a scoping review. After identifying the parameters to be analysed, we redefined the topic of study. We applied a number of criteria and selected relevant studies the introduction of the SDGs (2015) until June 2022. We searched Web of Science, SPORTdiscus, Scopus, Google Scholar and PROquest using words such as ‘Sustainable Development’, ‘SDGs’ and ‘PE’. Results and discussion We reviewed 22 papers that met the inclusion criteria. We noted several characteristics in these studies. Most studies published between 2015 and 2022 come from international institutions (Commonwealth, UNESCO, etc.), and critical view articles, which theorise about the potential relation between PE and the SDGs. Beginning in 2021, there has been much more empirical research, mainly in the form of qualitative and quantitative cross-sectional studies. Most of this empirical research has been developed with undergraduate students in Physical Education Teacher Education (PETE). Some researchers have used pedagogical models such as service learning and cooperative learning as valid didactic tools to work on the SDGs. On the other hand, the countries that seem to show the greatest interest in research on the SDGs and PE are European, especially Spain and Sweden. Finally, SDGs 3 (Health and Wellbeing), 4 (Quality-Education) and 5 (Gender-Equality) have the greatest relationship with PE, specifically target 4.5 on inclusion and equity, target 5.1 to avoid discrimination based on sex and target 3.6 concerning physical and mental health. Conclusions The relationship between PE and the SDGs is an emerging topic. While papers published within the five years after definition of the SDGs have a strong theoretical character, empirical research has begun to predominate since 2021. The focus of future research should be to deepen the ways in which PE can contribute to the SDGs (pedagogical perspectives, content, objectives …). Researchers should use practice-based models to look for more sustainability-related content and, above all, to try to get students to reflect on how their daily actions can contribute to a more sustainable and durable world.

Component Analysis Model of Glass Relics Based on Logistic Regression and Fisher Linear Discrimination

In recent years, with the attention paid by various countries to the exploitation and protection of cultural relics and the continuous development of industrialization, people have gradually realized the necessity of analyzing the weathering of ancient glass relics. In this paper, the physical characteristics, chemical composition and content of sample cultural relics are analyzed and their types are identified by using multiple algorithms such as Logistic regression model, Fisher linear discrimination, Fisher’s exact test, etc. The study of this issue can provide guiding suggestions for the analysis and classification of ancient cultural materials, and help archaeologists carry out a series of work such as cultural relics protection. The results show that the "type" factor has the greatest relationship with weathering, followed by "color" and "decoration". The regression equation between the sample and weathering chemical composition is established, and it is concluded that "type" and "SnO2" have a large negative correlation with weathering, "MgO" and "SO2" have a large positive correlation, and other variables have a weak correlation. Finally, Fisher linear discriminant method is used to identify the category of unknown glass relics. By estimating the training group and testing the test group, it is found that the algorithm can correctly classify 100.0% of the original grouped cases. We can identify the unknown cultural relics and find that A1, A5, A6 and A7 cultural relics belong to high potassium glass, and the rest belong to lead barium glass. In order to test the accuracy of the model in identifying the category of glass relics, Fisher's exact test algorithm was used. It was found that the classification results were more sensitive to silica in the fluctuation range of - 50% to - 25%, and less sensitive to other chemical components, it is stable.

Faktor-faktor yang Berhubungan dengan Inovasi Asuhan Kebidanan Holistik dalam Pelayanan Praktik Mandiri Bidan di Kota Palembang

Efforts that can be made to reduce interventions in midwifery services are holistic midwifery care. Holistic care is care using a comprehensive concept so that it can detect early and prevent possible complications that will occur immediately. Midwives as health workers who play a role in maternal and child health are expected to be able to provide care with a holistic understanding of women. The innovation of holistic midwifery care in the Independent Practice of the Palembang City Midwife has not been popular among midwives in the City of Palembang. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between knowledge, attitudes, motivation, years of service, training, education, and age with holistic midwifery care innovations in midwifery independent practice services in the city of Palembang. This study used a quantitative approach, with an analytic survey design and a cross-sectional design. Statistically there is a significant relationship between knowledge (0.000), attitude (0.028), and training (0.003) with holistic midwifery care innovation in midwifery independent practice services. Statistically, there is no significant relationship between motivation (0.600), years of service (0.705), education (0.161), and age (0.753) with holistic midwifery care innovation in midwifery independent practice services. The variable that has the greatest relationship with holistic midwifery care innovation in midwifery independent practice services is knowledge. The holistic approach is the most comprehensive approach in health care, so midwives are expected to increase their knowledge and attitudes through training related to holistic midwifery care so that they can provide holistic care in midwifery practice.

Pronounced brown bear aggregation along anadromous streams in interior Alaska

Aggregated use along salmon‐bearing (Oncorhynchus spp.) streams is common for coastal brown bears Ursus arctos; however, it is much less common in non‐coastal (interior) environments, especially in the Arctic. A concurrent study of GPS‐collared brown bears in the interior Brooks Range mountains, northern Alaska, revealed that salmon‐bearing streams and their use by brown bears were more prevalent than previously known. Our goal was to estimate the number, gender, and species of bears (Ursus spp.) using anadromous streams while salmon were present in an area of northern, interior Alaska. We deployed single‐catch breakaway hair snares on heavily‐used bear trails along 7 km sections of two anadromous streams to identify individual animals through DNA genotypes. We collected 119 hair samples from August and September in 2016 and 2017 which revealed 31 unique brown bears and five American black bears Ursus americanus across both streams. Using a capture‐with‐replacement analysis, we estimated 24 (95% CI: 22–27) brown bears used 7 km of one stream and 15 (95% CI: 9–35) brown bears used 7 km of the other. Across both streams, we detected a higher proportion of females than males, more brown bears than black bears, and greater relatedness among bears that used the same stream. The high number of brown bears estimated along these streams belies their overall low densities in the region, while relatedness patterns suggests that bears obtain behavioral specialization through social learning. A 354 km industrial road is permitted to be constructed along the southern flanks of the Brooks Range, bisecting numerous streams and rivers, including the two sampled above. Given our findings, we identify potential mitigation measures to reduce human‐bear conflicts related to aggregated brown bear use along anadromous streams.

A Study of the Relationship between Foreign Language Anxiety and Motivation of English Language learners at intermediate level in Pakistan

Foreign Language Anxiety (FLA) is the unpleasant emotional response to learning a second language, whereas motivation is the fundamental urge to initiate foreign language study and the subsequent impetus to maintain the learning of language. Motivation and anxiety (though studied separately as well by researchers) have yielded groundbreaking results in this study. The researcher works to find the relationship between anxiety and motivation. The investigation employs a quantitative methodology and questionnaires. In order to accomplish this aim, Foreign Language Classroom Anxiety Scale (FLCAS) and the Language Learning Orientations Scale (LLOS) were administered to 318 participants of intermediate-level from Kohat's public colleges. For analysis, the data were subjected to Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA), Correlation Analysis (CA), and Regression Analysis (RA) utilizing the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS). As per the findings of the study, various forms of FL motivation are substantially associated with subscales of FL anxiety. In other words, students with various English learning motivations experience varying levels and types of anxiety. We discover a strong yet negative association between motivation and anxiety in this study. In addition, the study demonstrates that intrinsic motivation and amotivation have a greater relationship with anxiety and producing apprehension in language learners; therefore, motivating language learners by fostering their intrinsic motivation is likely to reduce their anxiety regarding English language learning. Teachers should utilize approaches that enhance pupils' intrinsic motivation. Anxiety was negatively associated with language accomplishment; consequently, in order to boost students' English language achievement, language tutors and students must take steps for decreasing FL anxiety. Teachers can reduce the anxiety of language learners by instructing them in learning processes, establishing goals that are neither too simple nor too tough, and employing anxiety-reduction approaches.
