Meaningful Discussion Research Articles

О разнородности состава философских концепций и гипотетичности их исходных положений

The article shows that any deep and meaningful discussion of the question of the composition of philosophical concepts is possible only with the implementation of a differentiated approach to understanding philosophy. So, if we understand philosophy as a special science, then knowledge and opinions will dominate in the composition of the corresponding philosophical concepts. If we understand philosophy as a kind of art, then beliefs and opinions will be represented in its composition first of all. Understanding philosophy as the most rationalized worldview (this is the understanding defended by the author of the article) requires recognition of the presence of two main components in philosophy: knowledge and value-semantic. Accordingly, such an understanding of philosophy is identical to the recognition that philosophical concepts include not only opinions and knowledge, but also beliefs, beliefs, value orientations and ideals. The article also substantiates that the initial provisions (principles) of philosophical concepts, as a rule, have a hypothetical character.

An Analysis of Illocutionary Acts Found in Aespa Speech at the United Nation

A speech consisting of spoken sentences represents an utterance and contributes to the overall message being conveyed. We use utterances in action, known as speech actions, in communication. K-pop girl group Aespa in 2022 was invited by the United Nations High-Level Political Forum to give a speech. This study is aimed to determine the speech acts types used by Aespa and to find out the function of the speech acts. To collect the data, the researchers transcribed the data comprehensively, which were analyzed using descriptive qualitative research based on the type of speech. The finding data showed 18 utterances with illocutionary acts. Those are 12 representative utterances, 1 directive utterance, 4 expressive utterances, and 1 commissive utterance. It implies that representative are preferred than the other type of illocutionary acts. It contributes to the understanding of how popular culture, specifically K-pop, can be harnessed as a platform for social advocacy and meaningful discourse on global issues. It contributes to the spread of the message.

Current Insights From Task Area 1 in NFDI4Energy: Building and Serving the Energy Research Community

Energy system research has become increasingly reliant on modeling and simulation approaches. These endeavors are enabled by continuously improving tools and methods for developing, maintaining and sharing models and data. Knowledge of how to better conduct, share and archive one’s research has become increasingly complex and hard to manage for individual researchers or single research groups. Identifying and including relevant scientists from energy research, social sciences, and further disciplines is sometimes difficult. Furthermore, a plethora of best practices and guidelines exist on how to prepare data, models and results in ways that make them easier to discover, verify and build upon. To present a sustainable, problem-solving, technical solution for the energy research community, NFDI4Energy develops in Task Area 1 (TA1) two services of the NFDI4Energy platform. Consequentially, the intention of this abstract within the disciplinary track “Engineering” is to provide an overview of the development process with a special focus on Competence and Best Practices. In addition, it discusses interconnections with other Task Areas as well as the chances and challenges that are associated with those connections. The academic audience, e.g., from the Information Systems and (Software) Engineering domain at CoRDI 2023, can observe and discuss our proposed procedure with other community members. Furthermore, we expect interested individuals to compare the proposed procedures with their own, which can lead to meaningful discussions and knowledge-sharing situations within the Engineering domain.

DiversityIndia Meets: Pioneering citizen science through collaborative data mobilization

DiversityIndia, founded in 2001, is an online community dedicated to promoting meaningful discussions and facilitating the exchange of diverse perspectives on lesser-known taxonomic groups, including butterflies, moths, dragonflies, spiders, and more. The core idea behind DiversityIndia is to establish a network of like-minded individuals who possess a deep passion for these subjects and actively participate in various aspects of biodiversity observation and research. Initially, the taxonomic focus of DiversityIndia centered around butterflies, which led to the creation of the ButterflyIndia Yahoo email group. The group quickly gained recognition for its significant contributions in sharing valuable insights about butterflies, including information about their habitats and lesser-known species. ButterflyIndia also played a vital role in facilitating connections among scientists and researchers who were dedicated to studying Lepidoptera. As a result of its collaborative efforts, the group actively contributed to major book projects and web portals, further enhancing the knowledge and resources available to the butterfly research community. As time progressed, the group expanded its presence to include various social media platforms like Orkut, Facebook, Flickr and more, thereby expanding its influence and reach. The realization of a significant need for empirical research on butterflies, requiring the involvement of both specialists and enthusiasts across diverse habitats, led to the first ButterflyIndia Meet in 2004 at Shendurney, Kerala. This pioneering concept garnered immense success, attracting participants from diverse regions of the country and backgrounds. Since then, several ButterflyIndia Meets have been organized, resulting in the documentation of numerous butterfly species. Building upon this success, DragonflyIndia and SpiderIndia were established with similar objectives and have successfully coordinated multiple gatherings (Fig. 1). One of the most notable DiversityIndia Meets occurred in April 2022, held in Sundarbans, West Bengal. This particular meet marked a significant milestone as the documented dataset, comprising information on all taxonomic groups observed during the event, was published through the Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF) (Roy et al. 2022). This publication allowed for wider accessibility and utilization of the valuable biodiversity data collected during the meet. In addition to the Sundarbans meet, ongoing efforts are currently underway to gather occurrence data from all the previous meetings conducted by DiversityIndia (Table 1). The aim is to compile and mobilize this data on GBIF as datasets, involving active participation from the members who attended these meetings. This endeavor seeks to maximize the availability and usefulness of the biodiversity information gathered through the various DiversityIndia Meets over time. According to the published records so far (Global Biodiversity Information Facility 2023), there are 1663 documented occurrences from 859 taxa belonging to 14 taxonomic classes, covering various biogeographies in India. These records provide valuable insights into the biodiversity of the country. DiversityIndia has indeed played a pioneering role in online citizen science in India, and its origins can be traced back to the original Yahoo groups. By bringing together specialists and enthusiasts alike, this community has successfully contributed to the comprehensive documentation and understanding of India's rich biodiversity. The collective efforts of the members serve as a testament to the enduring impact of citizen science in pushing the boundaries of our knowledge regarding the natural world.

The Feasibility of Critical Literacy Practices in an EFL Reading Class

This research aims to explain how critical literacy was practiced in an EFL reading class. In this reading class, students read and responded to a short story about bullying and friendship entitled Egghead. The data were generated from the classroom’s observations and interactions and students’ artifacts during the reading class. This research thoroughly examined 1) how critical literacy was employed in the reading classroom and 2) students’ engagement in the class. Using the four dimensions of critical literacy by Lewison et al. (2002), this research has figured out that critical literacy practices in the reading class are feasible to raise students’ awareness. Two significant findings are emphasized in this research. First is the positive outcomes during classroom discussions. Second, this approach can create an atmosphere that can motivate students’ enthusiasm and enjoyment. Both findings show that employing critical literacy allows students to verbalize their thoughts and opinions of their worldview, raising their awareness and understanding of social issues. However, as a role model, the teacher must engage students in a meaningful discussion while selecting and considering appropriate reading materials.

범죄피해자의 형사절차 참여 강화 방안

Despite ongoing discussions regarding the guarantee of victims' participation rights in criminal proceedings, the legal status of victims remains inadequate. Meaningful discussions on strengthening victims' participation in criminal proceedings can only take place when shifting away from a state-centric approach to a victim-centered approach. Victims can demand prevention of harm to their lives or bodies by participating in criminal proceedings, and they can also assert their right to seek recovery for the harm they have suffered as a result of the crime.
 However, the current system is far from victim-centered and fails to be victim-friendly. Victims are being treated as unwelcome guests by investigative agencies, and concerns regarding harm to victims are not properly taken into account in the criminal proceedings. The victim attorney system, which can make significant contributions to the exercise of participation rights, remains inadequate. Furthermore, victims are unable to provide proper statements in criminal proceedings, and they are not adequately guaranteed their right to information about their own cases.
 To address these issues, measures such as operating investigative procedures that consider the rights of victims and the perspective of recovery, prioritizing the protection of victims' right to life, expanding the victim attorney system, granting victims a quasi-party status in criminal trials, and ensuring proper guarantees of the right to information are necessary.

Causes of the Emergence of Fascism: A Marxist Analysis of the Example of Germany

Fascism is one of the most debated political ideologies of the 20th century. Research indicates that significant economic issues played a crucial role in the rise of fascism. However, there is no clear explanation as to why these economic problems led to fascism instead of socialism. Fascism emerged as a result of the conditions prevalent in the early 20th century, such as the devastation of World War I, global economic crises, political upheavals, social discontent, and the strengthening of national identity. It represents an ideology that reflects dissatisfaction and anger. This study aims to comprehensively examine the elements that contributed to the rise of fascism in Germany. Factors such as nationalism, authoritarianism, militarism, anti-Semitism, social discontent, and political weakness are believed to have had a significant impact on the ascent of fascism. In addition to providing a deeper analysis of the emergence of fascism, this work seeks to contribute to the debates by evaluating the conditions in pre-Hitler Germany and discussing Marx's notion that the economy is the fundamental factor determining the structure of society. The rise of fascism cannot be solely regarded as a phenomenon specific to that era. Therefore, studying the origins of fascism and examining the political, economic, and social situation before fascism's emergence allows for a more meaningful discussion about the reasons behind its rise.

Mapping visual working memory models to a theoretical framework.

The body of research on visual working memory (VWM)-the system often described as a limited memory store of visual information in service of ongoing tasks-is growing rapidly. The discovery of numerous related phenomena, and the many subtly different definitions of working memory, signify a challenge to maintain a coherent theoretical framework to discuss concepts, compare models and design studies. A lack of robust theory development has been a noteworthy concern in the psychological sciences, thought to be a precursor to the reproducibility crisis (Oberauer & Lewandowsky, Psychonomic Bulletin & Review, 26, 1596-1618, 2019). I review the theoretical landscape of the VWM field by examining two prominent debates-whether VWM is object-based or feature-based, and whether discrete-slots or variable-precision best describe VWM limits. I share my concerns about the dualistic nature of these debates and the lack of clear model specification that prevents fully determined empirical tests. In hopes of promoting theory development, I provide a working theory map by using the broadly encompassing memory for latent representations model (Hedayati et al., Nature Human Behaviour, 6, 5, 2022) as a scaffold for relevant phenomena and current theories. I illustrate how opposing viewpoints can be brought into accordance, situating leading models of VWM to better identify their differences and improve their comparison. The hope is that the theory map will help VWM researchers get on the same page-clarifying hidden intuitions and aligning varying definitions-and become a useful device for meaningful discussions, development of models, and definitive empirical tests of theories.

SP8.1 Patient perception of the informed consent process: A single centre cohort study comparing paper and digital consent

Abstract Aims NHS Digital set eConsent as a priority for 2021-2022 and digital consent is now being adopted by many hospitals. This study aims to compare how patients perceive the consenting process on both paper and digital platforms. Methods A prospective service evaluation was conducted in a university hospital (May 2022-December 2022), across 9 specialities, to compare paper with digital consent. as a part of an SBRI-granted project (SBRIH19P3055) to identify the economic benefits of digital consent. The digital consent solution was provided by Concentric Health. Time-motion study assessing the consultation time required to consent a patient was conducted in clinics. Patient feedback was obtained through structured questionnaires, including the CollaboRATE score (validated to measure shared decision-making, SDM). Results Patient feedback was compared for 151 responders from each group. 92 (60.9%) responders in the digital group scored the CollaboRATE Topscore (representative of gold standard SDM) in comparison to 71 (47%) responders in the paper consent group. 113 patients had experienced both paper and digital consent, of which 73 (64.6%) patients prefer digital consent and 40 (35.3%) prefer paper consent. Sub-analysis of consultation time (including both consent and clinic time) revealed no significant difference P=0.102 between the use of paper (n=21) and digital (n=26) consent. Conclusion Digital consent is favoured by patients perhaps because it enables more meaningful and detailed discussion of information before surgery. Patient satisfaction regarding their involvement in SDM is higher with digital consent than with paper consent. Further studies are needed to evaluate the value of digital consent.

Fostering University Students’ Motivation through Dialogic Classroom Practices: A Conceptual Model

This conceptual paper presents a model for engaging students and promoting motivation through dialogic classroom practices. The author argues that fostering dialogic teaching and learning in the classroom can positively impact student motivation and learning outcomes. The proposed model highlights the importance of creating a classroom environment where students feel comfortable sharing their ideas and engaging in meaningful discussions. This conceptual article is lensed within transformative paradigm, presenting dialogic pedagogy as a concept analysed using conceptual analysis. Dialogic pedagogy was presented, and the key assumptions, such as promoting classroom dialogue, valuing all voices, emphasising social knowledge construction, and instructors acting as facilitators of learning, were discussed vis-à-vis its correctional tendencies with student motivation and learning outcomes. The paper also highlights the potential benefits of dialogic classroom practices for diverse and borderless student populations. The conclusion is that promoting classroom dialogue, valuing all voices, emphasising social knowledge construction, and acting as facilitators of learning are dimensions to enhance student motivation towards learning outcomes. The paper offers a valuable contribution to the literature by providing a comprehensive framework for educators to effectively engage and motivate their students through dialogic practices.

Performance analysis of ambient backscatter communication empowered IoV networks

This paper investigates the performance of Internet-of-Vehicles networks supporting vehicular communication applications empowered by ambient backscatter communication technology. Specifically, we consider that the tag and reader are mounted on the vehicles while the ambient radio frequency source is a fixed infrastructure, allowing for both vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-infrastructure modes of communication in the network under consideration. We evaluate the exact outage probability expression for the AmBC-enabled Internet-of-Vehicles systems by characterizing the fading associated with vehicle-to-infrastructure and vehicle-to-vehicle transmissions as Rayleigh distributed and cascaded (double) Rayleigh distributed, respectively. Also, asymptotic outage probability expression is derived under high signal-to-noise ratio regime, from which a meaningful discussion on the system’s diversity order is carried out. Moreover, we deduce the tight ergodic capacity expression over mixed Rayleigh and double-Rayleigh fading channels. Finally, the simulation studies verify the proposed theoretical framework and show the impact of various channel and system parameters on the outage probability and ergodic capacity performance.

율곡 誠意 공부의 덕 윤리적 함의

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that Yulgok's sincere intention〔誠意〕 implies the characteristics of virtue ethics. This paper aims to establish the meaningful discussion that Yulgok's sincere intention goes beyond the limits of normative ethics, duty ethics, or the constraints of knowledge, and is significant in pursuing the goal of individual's daily moral practice and well-being. Virtue ethics place emphasis on the will for the prosperity of the community, well-being, the virtues, character, and the cultivation of the agent. The moral agent can intentionally and repeatedly engage in virtuous actions through habituation thereby transforming their character. Yulgok's sincere intention aims to derive natural moral conduct through everyday will for practice, with the goal of cultivating virtuous dispositions. In other words, humans possess intellectual abilities and the virtues of renyilizhi〔仁義禮智〕. By cultivating these virtues, they attain an ideal state of character where virtuous actions can naturally manifest regardless of time and place. When aspiring to virtuous actions, the moral agent must be capable of comparing and analyzing various cases to derive rational judgments and conducts. This can be confirmed through Yulgok's interpretation of yi〔意〕 separated by nianlusi〔念慮思〕. Furthermore, Yulgok emphasized the importance of sincere mind〔實心〕. This is a driving force for appropriate judgment and moral choices making the virtue of renyilizhi〔仁義禮智〕 and impartiality. Therefore Yulgok's sincere intention provides a meaningful discussion explaining the interdependence between intellectual virtues and moral virtues required in the process of habituation.

In the Unrest of Implication: Museum Education Methods in Atmospheres of Scandalization

ABSTRACT In this essay, we explore ways in which cultural and museum spaces can be opened up to meaningful discussions about difficult topics and how this can be done through specific educational formats. We attempt to look critically at some of the assumptions that are around in critical museum education theory and practices, e.g. influences coming from standpoint theory. The goal is to understand our own unconscious biases as we develop methods to help address problematic issues such as racism and anti-Semitism. We argue that these biases are shaped by a logic of dichotomy that allows to position oneself on “the good side.” Especially in an atmosphere of scandalization, these dichotomies might hinder mutual learning situations. We propose using Michael Rothberg’s concept of the “implicated subject” to develop approaches and methods that move beyond dichotomous thinking patterns. We will try to illustrate our reflection process with three examples that also show that taking (one’s own) implication seriously has unsettling effects that can stall the development of methods that seek to open spaces also for conflictual discussions.

Creating Patient Context: Empathy and Attitudes Toward Diabetes Following Virtual Immersion.

Pandemic circumstances created challenges for doctor of physical therapy (DPT) students to understand social determinants of health (SDH) in clinical rotations. Instead of canceling clinical rotations, a virtual reality cinema (cine-VR) education series was implemented. The purpose of this project is to describe the effect of this simulated immersion on student empathy and attitudes toward diabetes. The DPT students (n=59) participated in 12 cine-VR education modules, completing surveys at three time points as part of coursework. The students completed baseline measures of the Diabetes Attitude Scale-Version 3 (DAS-3) and Jefferson Empathy Scale (JES), and then were immersed in 12 cine-VR modules. One week after module completion, students participated in a class discussion about the modules. The students repeated the JES and DAS-3 scales at postclass and six weeks later. Three subscales from the Presence Questionnaire (PQ) were used to measure the virtual experience. Student scores on three DAS-3 subscales significantly improved on posttest: Attitude toward patient autonomy, Mean: 0.75, SD: 0.45; t(58) = 12.742, P < .001; Psychosocial impact of diabetes, Mean: -0.21, SD: 0.41; t(58) = -3.854, P < .001; and Seriousness of type 2 diabetes, Mean: -039, SD: 0.44; t(58) = -6.780, P < .001, with lower scores six weeks later. Student scores increased on the JES and remained high (P < .001). High subscale scores on the PQ demonstrated immersion and involvement in the virtual experience. These modules can allow for a shared student experience that improves diabetes attitudes, increases empathy, and fosters meaningful classroom discussion. The cine-VR experience is flexible, and modules allow students to engage in aspects of a patient's life that were not available otherwise.
