Evaluation of Water System Connectivity Based on Node Centrality in the Tarim River Basin, Xinjiang, China

Water system connectivity is an important measure to optimize the balanced spatial allocation of water resources and water security patterns. Inland river basins in arid zones are generally insufficiently connected, so the scientific evaluation of the current status of water system connectivity and the centrality of its nodes in the water system network has practical significance for the scientific construction of regional water networks. Taking the Tarim River Basin in Xinjiang, China, as an object, this study conducted a comprehensive evaluation of basin water system connectivity by constructing a water system connectivity evaluation system with a total of 12 indicators for the three aspects of pattern connectivity, structural connectivity and functional connectivity. Subsequently, the TOPSIS model, with combined weights of the analytic hierarchy process and the entropy weight method, was used to comprehensively evaluate the connectivity of the watershed’s water system. The research evaluated the node centrality of the water system network that was closely related to the basin water system connectivity by using complex network analyses. The study results indicated the following: (1) among the source streams in the Tarim River Basin, the connectivity of the Aksu Basin was the best and that of the Keriya Basin was the worst and (2) the distribution patterns of the eigenvector centrality and betweenness centrality of the basin hydrological network nodes were similar, with nodes of highest centrality concentrated in the vicinity of the mainstems and the source–mainstem intersections. This work provides a basis and reference for the construction of water system connectivity and the selection of key control sections for ecological flow in the Tarim River Basin.

Challenging the gender binary in occupation-based research: A feminist critical discourse analysis of sex differences

ABSTRACT Gender is a constitutive element of an oppressive system based on sexual differentiation. Making difference between the female and male sexes is an accepted practice that is particularly widespread in scientific research. Yet, this research practice can contribute to the construction of gender as an oppressive system with consequences for people’s occupations and health. The aim of the present study is to address the potential contribution of occupation-based scientific articles in the construction of a gendered social order through the taken-for-granted use of sex categories. A literature review resulted in the selection of 22 articles published in occupational therapy and occupational science journals that differentiate individuals based on female/male sex characteristics. A feminist critical discourse analysis was used to make visible how these texts contribute to the construction of gender and their occupational and health consequences. Three specific mechanisms were identified in the analysis: naturalization, banalization, and sacralization. Together, they show the specific process of naturalization of care work as ‘women’s work’ and how it further constitutes a basis towards indifference and banalization of women’s health and occupational issues. Sacralization illustrates how full authority is conferred to numbers within science to justify research based on sex categories and how this contributes to reproducing one gendered reality over another. In conclusion, this study aligns with feminist and critical occupational science theories and contributes to epistemological disruption of the scientific construction of binary sexes within occupation-based scholarship.

Against Common Sense: On the Utopian Aspect of Concepts

AbstractBy supplementing the work of Schutz, the article critically contests the methodological requirement, widely accepted within phenomenological sociology, that social scientific constructs be consistent with the constructs of common-sense experience of social reality. First, the article proposes that insofar as our everyday ways of speaking and thinking perceive the world as consisting of static and self-consistent entities, adhering to the methodological requirement makes research vulnerable to substantialist assumptions. To be able to account for how things change and involve other entities in their make-up therefore ultimately requires going against common sense along the lines of processual-relational thinking. Second, the article suggests that adhering too strictly to the methodological requirement easily renders social scientific concepts reactive and representational, trapped within the present and the actual. Against this, the article argues for a view of concepts as active and creative, stressing their utopian aspects. Social scientific thinking that gravitates towards creation emphasises potentiality and the future instead of perpetuating the actual and the present: it engages with present practices, institutions, and structures for the benefit of the future. Instead of merely describing or representing the social world as it is, its concepts present a challenge to what is, and thereby open up new ways of thinking, acting, and being and potentially “give a new event to things”.

INTEGRASI KEILMUAN ISLAM HOLISTIK-INTEGRATIF PERGURUAN TINGGI DI INDONESIA

There are various ways of integrating holistic-integrative Islamic scholarship in the era of postmodernism such as in Indonesia today. This qualitative descriptive writing with a literature study aims to discuss the holistic-integrative integration of Islamic knowledge in higher education in Indonesia. The data analysis technique uses content analysis by sorting data according to the research objectives and problems. This research found the following two things. First, in essence, the integration of Islamic scholarship from holistic-integrative postmodernism-era thinkers is a criticism of the normative-theological Islamic scientific paradigm of the traditionalism era as well as a criticism of the empirical-sociological Islamic paradigm of the modernism era. Second, the essence of the integration of Islamic science in the postmodern era of religious universities in Indonesia is to end the dichotomy of science and religious science for scientific construction in the future. Several Islamic universities in Indonesia have carried out scientific integration, including UIN Syarif Hidayatullah Jakarta with the concept of Reintegration of Sciences in Islam, UIN Sunan Kalijaga Yogyakarta with the concept of Integration-Interconnection using the Spider Web metaphor, UIN Maulana Malik Ibrahim Malang with the concept of Integration of Science in Islam with the Tree of Knowledge metaphor, UIN Sunan Gunung Djati Bandung with the concept of Wahyu Guiding Knowledge with the wheel metaphor, UIN Alauddin Makasar with the concept of Integration and Interconnection of Science and Religious Knowledge with the metaphor of the Tree of Science Cells, and others.

Rainfall partitioning characteristics and simulation of typical shelter forest in Chinese Mu Us Sandy Land

Numerous shelter forests have been established to combat desertification in the Mu Us Sandy Land, China. Shelter forests modify the characteristics of the underlying surface and affect the regional water cycle by altering rainfall partitioning. Understanding the rainfall partitioning process and its controlling factors for indigenous and exotic species is crucial for vegetation restoration and sustainable soil water management. This study developed an event-based rainfall partitioning process for three typical shelter forests. Indigenous vegetation, Amygdalus pedunculata Pall. (A. pedunculata), and two exotic species, Amorpha fruticosa L. (A. fruticose) and Pinus sylvestris var. mongholica Litv. (P. sylvestris), were observed during the rainy seasons (July and August) of 2021 and 2022. The results showed that throughfall, stemflow, and interception loss constituted 71.01 %, 8.23 %, and 20.76 % of rainfall, respectively, for A. pedunculata. The corresponding values were 74.65 %, 8.47 %, and 16.88 % for A. fruticose and 73.27 %, 1.44 %, and 25.29 % for P. sylvestris. Compared with the introduced P. sylvestris, the shrub canopy showed a greater funneling ratio and was conducive to recharging soil water by precipitation. The amount and intensity of rainfall were significantly correlated with the rainfall partitioning characteristics, whereas the correlation between rainfall duration and partitioning was insignificant. Based on the results of the revised Gash model, the stemflow was primarily influenced by the percentage of rainfall diverted to the stemflow. The interception loss for P. sylvestris was primarily influenced by the canopy storage capacity. However, the canopy storage capacity and the ratio of mean evaporation rate to mean rainfall intensity had significant effects on the interception loss in A. pedunculata and A. fruticose. It is necessary to comprehensively consider the vegetation type (tree/shrub and indigenous/exotic species) and the corresponding rainfall partitioning characteristics of shelter forests for the scientific construction and management of shelter forests in the Mu Us Sandy Land.

Embedding Democratic Values into Social Media AIs via Societal Objective Functions

Mounting evidence indicates that the artificial intelligence (AI) systems that rank our social media feeds bear nontrivial responsibility for amplifying partisan animosity: negative thoughts, feelings, and behaviors toward political out-groups. Can we design these AIs to consider democratic values such as mitigating partisan animosity as part of their objective functions? We introduce a method for translating established, vetted social scientific constructs into AI objective functions, which we term societal objective functions, and demonstrate the method with application to the political science construct of anti-democratic attitudes. Traditionally, we have lacked observable outcomes to use to train such models-however, the social sciences have developed survey instruments and qualitative codebooks for these constructs, and their precision facilitates translation into detailed prompts for large language models. We apply this method to create a democratic attitude model that estimates the extent to which a social media post promotes anti-democratic attitudes, and test this democratic attitude model across three studies. In Study 1, we first test the attitudinal and behavioral effectiveness of the intervention among US partisans (N=1,380) by manually annotating (alpha=.895) social media posts with anti-democratic attitude scores and testing several feed ranking conditions based on these scores. Removal (d=.20) and downranking feeds (d=.25) reduced participants' partisan animosity without compromising their experience and engagement. In Study 2, we scale up the manual labels by creating the democratic attitude model, finding strong agreement with manual labels (rho=.75). Finally, in Study 3, we replicate Study 1 using the democratic attitude model instead of manual labels to test its attitudinal and behavioral impact (N=558), and again find that the feed downranking using the societal objective function reduced partisan animosity (d=.25). This method presents a novel strategy to draw on social science theory and methods to mitigate societal harms in social media AIs.

Cybercrime Risk Found in Employee Behavior Big Data Using Semi-Supervised Machine Learning with Personality Theories

A critical worldwide problem is that ransomware cyberattacks can be costly to organizations. Moreover, accidental employee cybercrime risk can be challenging to prevent, even by leveraging advanced computer science techniques. This exploratory project used a novel cognitive computing design with detailed explanations of the action-research case-study methodology and customized machine learning (ML) techniques, supplemented by a workflow diagram. The ML techniques included language preprocessing, normalization, tokenization, keyword association analytics, learning tree analysis, credibility/reliability/validity checks, heatmaps, and scatter plots. The author analyzed over 8 GB of employee behavior big data from a multinational Fintech company global intranet. The five-factor personality theory (FFPT) from the psychology discipline was integrated into semi-supervised ML to classify retrospective employee behavior and then identify cybercrime risk. Higher levels of employee neuroticism were associated with a greater organizational cybercrime risk, corroborating the findings in empirical publications. In stark contrast to the literature, an openness to new experiences was inversely related to cybercrime risk. The other FFPT factors, conscientiousness, agreeableness, and extroversion, had no informative association with cybercrime risk. This study introduced an interdisciplinary paradigm shift for big data cognitive computing by illustrating how to integrate a proven scientific construct into ML—personality theory from the psychology discipline—to analyze human behavior using a retrospective big data collection approach that was asserted to be more efficient, reliable, and valid as compared to traditional methods like surveys or interviews.

The Aesthetics of Truth and Ecology: The World of Realistic Television Dramas

In the continuous dream-building process of China, the public has a broader interpretation of the concept ofhome and family wrapped around their daily lives. Family in their daily lives carries the love and care among individuals under the social attributes, while the unity of the country gives the public a firm foundation for life under the undertones of the growing scientific construction. Throughout the past two years, popular Chinese TV dramas, such as Age of Awakening, Ren Shi Jian, and Mountains and the Sea, have revealed the transformation in China’s development under the common terminology of multi-dimensional performance, which embodied the country and family under the great historical changes and reform of the country. This paper takes human behavior as the main perspective and expands the research on the common construction of family and nation based on aesthetics. Real aesthetics advocate through the real-life encounters of ordinary people to reflect contemporary social phenomena. This can stimulate social identity in audiences with the constructed ecology aesthetics by the community.

The multiple olhares gives interdisciplinarity on the concept of sociocultural practices

The central proposal of this article is to discuss the conceptual nuances of the expression "sociocultural practices", from its scientific and social relevance. The article is based on the literature review methodology. The approach to "Sociocultural Practices" is often used in academic publications and is often found as a theoretical and epistemological foundation in Graduate Programs. However, in an interdisciplinary research vision there is a concern with the delimitation of its meaning, since there is no way of constituting itself into a static concept. This conceptual reflection is relevant in that it allows several areas to use it as epistemology for a scientific construction in comparison with reality, which will allow there to be no possible terminological inaccuracy, as this could jeopardize the scientificity of the publications.

Effects of nano-alumina on Portland concrete at low temperatures (5 ℃)

The purpose of this research is to solve the problem of concrete performance deterioration caused by low temperatures in cold regions. Based on the theoretical method of improving the performance of concrete with nanomaterials, the effect of nano-alumina (NA) on the properties of concrete under low- temperature curing is studied from the macro and micro scales. Through the compressive strength test, it is found that low-temperature curing reduces the compressive strength of concrete by more than 15%. Additionally, the incorporation of NA can make up for the adverse effects of low temperatures. Nevertheless, with the increase in the amount of inclusion, the compensation effect is decreasing, and 1% is the optimal amount of NA in concrete. Microscopic test methods such as mercury intrusion porosimetry (MIP), X-ray diffractometry (XRD), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) are used to explore the improvement mechanism of NA on concrete. The test results show that under low-temperature curing conditions, NA can still reduce the total porosity of the mortar in concrete, promote the hydration reaction of cement, consume more calcium hydroxide, generate more calcium silicate hydrate, thereby optimizing the microstructure and improving the performance of the concrete. In the future, the results and methodology of this study will provide guidance and reference for the scientific construction of concrete engineering in cold region environments.

The Effective Path of High-quality Employment for College Students under the Perspective of “Internet+”

Abstract The rapid development of higher education has made the social supply far greater than the social demand, which has created the problem of difficult employment for college students. The implementation of the national strategy of strengthening human resources and the healthy development of a harmonious society is facilitated by solving the employment problem of college students. In this study, we first constructed a model of college students’ employment through factor analysis and explored the key factors that affect the employment quality of college students. The keywords were used to extract the hotspots of corporate recruitment and to extract measurement variables such as GPA scores. Factor analysis was used to find out the potential variables, extract the effective factors greater than 1, name and number the principal component factors, and identify the items with the highest correlation of each principal component factor, respectively. The model of this paper was validated through exploratory and validation analyses on the obtained data, which were consistent between the validation and exploratory samples. The actual value of X² was 0.7312, which was in line with the evaluation criteria. The evaluation criteria are met by the values of the other five indicators. The model’s high fit and scientific construction are reflected by it. This paper integrates factor analysis with the exploration of college students’ employment pathways, providing a set of application models that can be used as a reference.

Evaluation of the applicability of hospital-affiliated green spaces to patient recovery using the entropy weight method and grey relational analysis.

Hospital affiliated green spaces can help patients recover and recover their physical functions, promote physical and mental relaxation, enhance health awareness, and improve overall health. However, there are still significant questions about how to scientifically construct hospital affiliated green spaces. This study examines the impact of hospital green spaces on patient rehabilitation through scientific evaluation methods, providing reference for the scientific construction of hospital affiliated green spaces. Applicability evaluation was conducted on the affiliated green spaces of three hospitals in Harbin. An evaluation system covering plants, space, accessibility, rehabilitation functions, and promotional and educational functions has been constructed. The entropy weight method is used to determine the weight of indicators, and the grey correlation analysis method is used to evaluate the suitability of green space for patient rehabilitation. The experimental results showed that the landscape accessibility index had the highest weight (0.3005) and the plant index had the lowest weight (0.1628), indicating that caring for special needs is the foundation of hospital landscapes, and plants have subtle and long-term effects on physical and mental health. In the evaluation of the rehabilitation applicability of the affiliated green spaces of various hospitals, the second hospital has the highest grey correlation degree (0.8525), followed by the tumor hospital (0.5306) and the fifth hospital (0.4846). It can be seen that the green space of the second hospital has high applicability for patient rehabilitation, but the green space of the tumor hospital and the fifth hospital needs to be improved and developed. The evaluation criteria used in this study are comprehensive. The landscaping at the Third Hospital is well-planned with good plant configuration and reasonable spatial layout. However, there is insufficient consideration for accessibility in the landscape design, and the details are lacking. The rehabilitation and educational functions of the landscape are inadequate, with limited outdoor activities and low road safety. The hospital's affiliated green spaces should adhere to the principle of "appropriate scale, comprehensive functionality, and educational leisure," integrating rehabilitation and educational functions while increasing the variety of outdoor activities. In the future, emphasis should be placed on exploring the integration of landscape and rehabilitation to provide a functional site that is convenient for visiting, with improved rehabilitation facilities and an educational and enjoyable environment. The design should incorporate elements that contribute to a sense of well-being, including roads and.

Senzitivnost na senzorno procesuiranje

The main aim of this review article is to describe the sensory processing sensitivity trait (SPS). People with this trait are highly sensitive individuals and the pertinent literature states that they make up 20% to 30% of the general population. The paper outlines the theories that originally explained the high sensitivity of a certain segment of the population, the results of the studies that explored the discriminant validity of the Highly Sensitive Person Scale, the studies that examined the relationships between the SPS trait and personality dimensions, and the studies on the quality of mental health of highly sensitive individuals. Although there is an increasing number of studies on highly sensitive people worldwide, this has not been the case in our region. Consequently, experts (psychologists, psychotherapists and psychiatrists) in Serbia and the region are largely unfamiliar with this trait. Hence, it is possible to confuse the SPS trait with a personality dimension (neuroticism, introversion, shyness, etc.) or to diagnose a disorder in highly sensitive individuals (autism, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, etc.). In addition, a very large number of newspaper articles on various internet portals about highly sensitive people may imply that high sensitivity in our region is only described through the lens of popular psychology. All this can lead to a misunderstanding of this scientific construct. Considering that the literature indicates that approximately a quarter of the general population is highly sensitive, it is extremely important that professionals become more familiar with the sensory processing sensitivity trait.

翻译专业文化类课程群思政教学设计与实践

The culture courses for translation majors are a main communication channel for students to be comprehensively exposed to western ideology and an important social field for students to experience the struggle of different cultural values, so it is urgent to strengthen the systematic and scientific construction of ideologicalpolitical instruction. Taking Intercultural Communication Course as an example, this paper discusses the design and practice of ideological-political instruction in the culture courses for translation majors, and systematically constructs three progressive stages which are the instructional design, teaching practice and teaching mode for ideological-political instruction, so that ideological-political instruction can be truly teachable, assessable and replicable.

Improvement path under the dilemma of cultivating foreign-related rule of law talents in local colleges and universities

The cultivation of foreign-related rule of law talents in the new era has become an important topic in the field of higher education in China, and local universities play an important role in building foreign-related rule of law construction and cultivating foreign-related talents in various regions. Cultivating foreign-related legal talents not only requires an international perspective and understanding of international rules, but also needs to be based on the needs of regional economic development and cultivate foreign-related legal talents that are suitable for local development. In order to achieve this goal, the first step is to consolidate people's spiritual foundations, make accurate academic planning, integrate the law and foreign languages, and connect domestic law and international law. We should also coordinate the theory and practice as the center of the scientific construction of the foreign-related curriculum system and set up a high-quality, highly educated, and capable team of foreign-related faculty, so as to integrate the educational resources and provide a strong guarantee for the cultivation of high-quality foreign-related rule of law personnel.

Research on Construction Safety Management Measures for Building Site

With the rapid development of Chinese construction industry, the scale of construction engineering is more and more large, and the degree of specialization is constantly improving. In order to gain competitive advantage in the market, construction enterprises must pay attention to construction safety management and optimization of construction technology. In addition, in order to promote the long-term and stable development of the project, the project contractor must also pay attention to the quality, efficiency and safety of the construction environment to ensure the safety of workers' lives and property. Therefore, construction safety management has become an important part of construction. It is an important strategy to conduct a comprehensive analysis of construction safety hazards, strengthen the construction of safety management system, improve workers' safety awareness and skill level, and adopt scientific construction technology and equipment.

Portraits of Scientific Inquiry and Scientific Literacy Skills Development in Students

Parental involvement generally occurs in elementary school and begins to diminish in middle school. Enlisting parental involvement in high school science is particularly challenging given parents tend to lack their own competencies in terms of scientific knowledge while simultaneously beginning to afford students increased independence. Research was conducted for employing active, meaningful constructivist-grounded parental involvement in high school science. Students participated in constructivist science learning activities with parents that utilized a facet of involvement strategies and socially supportive practices. Parents actively participated and communicated with students during science investigations via collaborative inquiry-based activities, self-assessments, and dialogue journaling. Parents and students participated in interviews, surveys, and questionnaires, as well as maintained dialogue journals for identifying themes. Triangulation of data identified the most effective strategies for involving parents in science learning and the impact of involvement on the development of student scientific inquiry and scientific literacy skills. Data indicated an increase in the development of scientific inquiry and scientific literacy skills in both parents and students, as well as student social, emotional achievement.

Research on the Construction of School-Enterprise Cooperation Model Based on Synergy Theory

In the systematic project of school-enterprise cooperation(SEC) with the synergistic cooperation of multi-subjects, the SEC model, as the overall guiding strategy, is particularly important for its scientific construction and should be included in the framework of synergy theory. Based on this, this paper investigates the construction of SEC model in vocational education under the framework of synergistic theory in order to provide a scientific construction idea for the construction of SEC model.In order to achieve this purpose, this paper introduces the concepts of supply chain and knowledge management into the SEC, analyzed the subject categories and cooperation contents of SEC from the perspective of the extension of the supply chain of SEC, and explores the subject roles and cooperative relationships of SEC from the perspective of the connotation of knowledge management of SEC, and then puts forward the idea of constructing the SEC model in vocational education. After the study, it is found that the SEC model should be constructed from the two dimensions of the lead-subject category and the subject cooperative relationship of SEC; and the construction of the model dimensions of both the dominant subject category and the subject cooperative relationship should be based on the degree of knowledge transfer-ability of SEC. The results shew that SEC should be constructed independently and independently of the modes of each SEC sub-platform under the overall dominant mode of the institution, and the construction of SEC modes should effectively promote the knowledge transfer between schools and enterprises.
