Earthquake magnitude prediction in Indonesia using a supervised method based on cloud radon data

In the challenging realm of earthquake prediction, the reliability of forecasting systems has remained a persistent obstacle. This study focuses on earthquake magnitude prediction in Indonesia, leveraging supervised machine learning techniques and cloud radon data. We present an analysis of the tele-monitoring system, data collection methods, and the application of regression-based machine learning algorithms. Utilizing a comprehensive dataset spanning 30 training instances and 105 test instances, the study evaluates multiple metrics to ascertain the efficacy of the prediction models. Our findings reveal that the linear regression approach yields the best earthquake magnitude prediction method, with the lowest values across multiple evaluation metrics: standard deviation 0.40, mean absolute error (MAE) 0.30, mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) 6%, root mean square error (RMSE) 0.52, mean squared error (MSE) 0.28, symmetric mean absolute percentage error (SMAPE) 0.06, and conformal normalized mean absolute percentage error (cnSMAPE) 0.97. Additionally, we discuss the implications of the research results and the potential applications in enhancing existing earthquake prediction methodologies.

The Relationship Between Institutional Pedagogy and the Brand Identity Formation of Higher Education Institutions

This study sought to facilitate insight into the potential role of pedagogy in the brand identity formation of higher education institutions (HEIs) through a study of selected HEIs in The Gambia. Specifically, the study sought to address the following research question: What role do pedagogical practices play in building the brand identity of selected universities in The Gambia? The intra-paradigm qualitative mixed method of data collection underpinned the research design. This research design facilitated a preliminary analysis of the contents of institutional documents and social media postings. This process was followed by telephonic and virtually mediated in-depth interviews through which this researcher explored the interactionist interpretations, recollections, experiences, and opinions of 54 participants (students and staff) on the themes of institutional brand management practices, institutional pedagogical practices, institutional brand identity, and the links between pedagogical practices and institutional brand identity. The study used the Corporate Brand Identity Matrix as a supporting analysis framework. The findings show a relationship between pedagogical practices and institutional brand identity formation. The evidence suggests that the selected HEIs use hardly differentiated production-style portfolios of academic courses to pursue largely unengaged students, prospective students, and other stakeholders. Further findings indicate that teaching and learning practice is dominated by academic staff's discretionary use of transmissive pedagogy. This insight emerged against the background of additional evidence, which shows a link between pedagogy policy and practices of HEIs and stakeholder impressions. A synthesis of these findings culminated in the emergence of the pedagogy-based higher education brand identity matrix (P-HEBIM), which this study proposes as a novel framework for the branding of HEIs. The study sets out a practitioner guide on how higher education managers can pursue the institutional brand management priorities of branding strategy development, competitor intelligence, and brand communication using the P-HEBIM as a framework.

Exploring the impact of project-based learning on critical thinking and soft skills development among Moroccan EFL students

This study examines the effects of Project-Based Learning (PBL) on the development of critical thinking and soft skills among 12th-grade Moroccan EFL students. The study used a qualitative research design and involved 24 students who participated in a PBL unit focused on addressing child marriage. Data collection methods included focus group discussions and reflections from the teacher-researcher. The findings show that PBL effectively enhances critical thinking by involving students in activities that require them to learn and apply various skills such as analysis, evaluation, and synthesis of information in real-life situations. Students also reported increased engagement and improvements in critical thinking skills as well as some soft skills, particularly in teamwork and communication. However, the study identified challenges related to time management and unequal participation in group tasks. The study emphasizes the potential of PBL to enhance students’ critical thinking and essential skills in educational settings, specifically in an EFL context. Recommendations of the study include implementing strategies to improve time management and establish clear group roles to maximize the benefits of PBL.

Ethical leadership in health-care organizations - a scoping review.

The purpose of this study is to explore the impact of EL style on key variables in health-care settings. Very few studies investigate the impact and outcomes of EL on health-care organizations. Synthesis of evidence will assist health-care leaders in making informed decisions about the outcomes they can expect from practicing EL. Arksey and O'Malley's five-stage framework is used for conducting the scoping review. The databases include Scopus, Emerald Insight and Web of Science. A total of 22 studies were finally considered for scoping review. The data are presented in terms of years, sampling techniques, sample size, data collection methods, and the directional relationship of the variables with EL. Managers should be trained in EL style as it promotes the sustainability of the environment and organizations. Furthermore, EL should be promoted in health-care organizations as it improves employee resilience and voicing behavior and reduces instances of adverse events and medication errors, thus making the hospital a better and safer place. This is one of the studies investigating the EL implications for health-care managers.

A qualitative study on Problems of Young People and Ways of Religious Coping in Türkiye

The research aims to investigate the problems faced by young people in Turkey and the religious coping mechanisms they use to cope with these problems. A total of 403 students from Turkey participated, including 190 high school and 213 university students. The research, conducted in April 2024, employed two different methods for data collection: written data was gathered directly from high school students through interviews, while questionnaires were distributed to university students and collected by the researcher. We used semi-structured interviews based on a specific framework, asking participants three broad and open-ended questions. After conducting a content analysis on the data, the researcher categorized the data thematically. Based on the available data, the findings of the research classified the problems faced by young people into three main categories: individual, social, and existential issues. Individual problems included gender roles, sexuality, religious doubts, stress, addiction, and loneliness. Social problems consisted of local and popular culture, violence, concerns about the future, difficulties in finding employment, the education process, marriage, and family communication. Existential issues included the meaning of life, death, and belief in God. The study revealed that young people often resort to religious coping strategies to handle these challenges. These strategies include praying (salat), supplication (dua), expressing gratitude, repentance, performing ablution, attending mosques, reading the Qur'an, participating in religious talks, and engaging in volunteer services. As a result, it has been determined that religious coping strategies are an important part of the daily lives of young people in Turkey and that these strategies play an important role in coping with individual, social, and existential challenges.

Analysis Of Differences In Evidence In District Court Decisions And Supreme Court Decisions: A Case Study On The Judicial Review Process

A judicial review (PK) is a legal mechanism given to parties who are dissatisfied with a decision that has permanent legal force, either in the District Court or the Supreme Court. In Indonesia, a PK application can only be submitted once, as regulated in Article 268 paragraph (3) of the Criminal Procedure Code, and often involves new evidence (novum) as a basis for requesting a judicial review. The objective to be achieved in this study is to analyze the differences related to the evidence in the District Court decision and the Supreme Court decision in the review process. The method used in this study is juridical normative where the legal material used covers the theory, concept, legal principles and some regulations in accordance with the discussion of research. The method of data collection used is literature study where secondary data are used such as books, laws and related journals. The results of this study indicate that the difference in evidence in conducting judicial review becomes one of the considerations for the acceptance or rejection of PK by the Supreme Court. However, in fact, the specification of the quality of evidence is still not clearly explained where it will only create a blur of norms. Therefore, it is not surprising when the Supreme Court rejected many of the judicial review considering that there was no eligibility for the quality of the evidence received

3.O. Scientific session: Migrant labour exploitation and health: How can research foster protection of migrant workers?

Abstract Migrant workers sustain essential industries such as the food supply chain, construction, and domestic and care work. They tend to perform onerous and risk-laden tasks at low pay without employment or health protections, and often under exploitative terms (e.g., debt bonding, piecework). Current evidence on associations between migration, employment terms and conditions, and health indicates profound inequities in work-related health outcomes for migrant workers. Although the COVID-19 pandemic highlighted these disparities and their potential social and public health implications, migrant workers continue to be overlooked by public health scholars and policymakers. Supranational regulations (such as EU directives) and national policies rarely consider migrants in their role as workers, and little research is dedicated to questions at the intersection of migration, employment, and health. The invisibility of migrant workers is also a matter of disciplinary and sectoral silos, with different aspects of migrant labour regulated separately by Ministries of Immigration, Labour, Agriculture, Health, and others. These silos create incompatible, context-contingent definitions, terminologies, and administrative categorizations, leading to inconsistent data collection and data gaps which, in turn, translate into policy blind spots. Data that are comparable across contexts and that refer to migration, employment/work and health are generally scarce. For some sectors and contexts, virtually no data exist; e.g., for migrant workers in agriculture, construction, and domestic work, and for migrant workers in low- and middle-income countries. There is barely any evidence about interventions to improve the structures that dictate migrant workers’ employment conditions or obligations of employers. Given the limited participatory research with migrant workers, we have a very poor understanding of their views and viable intervention options, and migrant workers’ voices thus also remain absent from policymaking. This workshop aims to contribute to greater visibility of - and ultimately action on - migrant labour exploitation in research and policy. To this end, it will map current challenges and shortcomings in generating evidence on the links between migration, work/employment, and health; and it will suggest ways to improve research and interventions to address migrant workers’ health, based on the speakers’ experience in developing intervention-focused evidence in different contexts. The workshop will conclude with an open discussion to identify further relevant questions and elaborate steps towards better research and greater protections for mobile worker populations. Key messages • Harm from exploitative working conditions among migrant workers is substantial, yet data collection methods and intervention designs are limited. • For public health research to effectively help protect the health and rights of migrant workers, it is essential to share methods and insights across disciplines to drive research for action.

Leveraging Social Marketing to Increase Vaccination Rates: A Systematic Review

Abstract Introduction Vaccinations are crucial for protecting individuals from preventable diseases, serving as a cornerstone of public health, safeguarding entire populations. Low vaccination rates can have devastating consequences, leading to outbreaks of preventable diseases. Social marketing has had an increasing role to play in public health. This systematic review seeks to investigate social marketing effectiveness in boosting vaccination adherence. Methods A literature search was conducted in PubMed, Scopus and Cochrane Library, using keywords “social marketing”, ‘campaigns”, “vaccination”, “vaccination uptake”. The search was limited to English-language studies, including studies discussing social marketing campaigns and its impact on vaccination uptake. Prior to inclusion, the studies were evaluated for relevance and applicability to the research question. Included studies were analysed for methodology, sample size, data collection methods, and key findings. Results Of 198 articles identified, 26 studies met inclusion criteria. All studies reported demonstrable improvement in vaccination adherence and hence higher vaccination rates with the use of social marketing campaigns. Targeted messaging on social media allows communication to be tailored to specific demographics and address their unique concerns. Community engagement combats vaccine hesitancy by dismantling misinformation and rebuilding trust. Additionally, these campaigns leverage social influence and mobilise communities to cultivate pro-vaccine attitudes. By addressing personal choice, knowledge gaps, and hesitancy, social marketing paves the way for greater vaccination uptake. Conclusions Social marketing has been proven to be an effective tool in promoting vaccination adherence in public health. As vaccination remains a critical aspect of public health, the continued use of social marketing interventions is essential for improving vaccination rates and ultimately enhancing overall population health. Key messages • Social marketing campaigns lead to higher vaccination rates across various populations. • By addressing vaccine hesitancy, social marketing paves the way for increased vaccination uptake.

Involving children in health literacy research

Abstract Background The range of health literacy research related to children has not normalised children’s involvement as advisors in health literacy research about them. While research with children can be difficult to facilitate, the principles of involvement and engagement should guide all health literacy work. This presentation shares learning from convening a Children’s Advisory Group to consult children about health literacy research priorities, ethics and methods. Methods Children (n-8) aged 7-11, referred by adults whose networks included children, joined a Children’s Advisory Group as Child Advisors. Consultations focused on a proposed study of how children’s critical health literacy could be supported in a community setting. Child Advisors piloted methods for rapport-building and data collection to be adapted for use with child participants later. Child rights-informed evaluation forms captured children’s reflections on their involvement. Results Consulting with a Children’s Advisory Group has challenges and benefits. Despite equity-focused strategies, e.g. introductory phonecalls and postcard updates, seldom-heard children remained less involved and the extent of parent/caregiver support varied. Child Advisors valued independent consultations led by their interests. Contributions included child-friendly consent documents, livestreamed draw-and-describe inspired by favourite influencers, and a novel Interview to the Alien protocol designed to appeal to middle childhood. Conclusions Taking an equity-focused approach is relevant for research with children focused on critical health literacy. Consulting with Child Advisors provides a way to involve children in health literacy research that holds adult researchers accountable for acting on children’s contributions. It is important to offer Child Advisors more than one option to get involved in research so that their insights can be foregrounded in future health literacy research with children.

A Qualitative Study of Implementation Outcomes of a Group-Based Intervention for Immigrant Parents

Abstract Background Inequities in service utilization between immigrant families and native populations have emerged within the Nordic welfare countries, highlighting the need for culturally sensitive parenting support. Despite the proven efficacy of parenting interventions, their implementation phases have not been adequately addressed in extant implementation research, particularly regarding structural racism and inequities. This study aims to contribute to the literature from an implementation perspective by describing a pilot of ‘Being a Parent in Finland,’ a culturally sensitive group-based intervention for migrant parents. Its specific focus is on investigating barriers to and facilitators of implementation outcomes from the perspectives of service providers. Methods The qualitative data consisted of thematic interviews (N = 6) with service providers (N = 9) compiled at distinct phases of the pilot from 2021 to 2023. In addition, data triangulation was utilized through document analysis of 125 pages of various documents regarding the pilot as a supplementary data collection method. Content analysis was conducted on the data using Atlas.ti 23. Results The findings stress the alignment of the target group, service placement, and preventive measures for enhancing parenting intervention’s acceptability, appropriateness, and feasibility. Implicit objectives, such as perceiving the target group as ‘at-risk,’ can impede intervention success and exacerbate stigmatization of the target group. Culture- and context-specific adaptations, and community engagement foster parental trust and intervention accessibility. Conclusions The findings underscore the significance of congruent objectives, community engagement, and adaptive iterations in preventive parenting interventions. Advocating for these elements in implementation strategies is crucial for reducing stigmatization and enhancing equity and efficacy in services tailored to minority parents. Key messages • Acknowledging equity in both implementation research and strategies is paramount. • Implementing trust-building is crucial for culturally sensitive parenting interventions.
