Interaction Of Deaf Students With Hearing Peers In Inclusive Elementary Schools: A Phenomenological Study, Anfal Zaeni Noor, Sriyanto Sriyanto Jan 2026

Interaction Of Deaf Students With Hearing Peers In Inclusive Elementary Schools: A Phenomenological Study, Anfal Zaeni Noor, Sriyanto Sriyanto

Journal of ICSAR

The interaction of disabilities with their peers in inclusive elementary schools is a critical dimension of social and emotional development, yet existing research has largely emphasized communication barriers or institutional readiness rather than students’ lived communicative experiences. This study examines how a deaf student constructs and negotiates communication with peers in an inclusive elementary school context. Using a qualitative phenomenological design, the study involved one deaf student, hearing peers, parents, and a homeroom teacher. Data were collected through observations, semi-structured interviews, and document analysis, and were analyzed using thematic analysis. The findings reveal that communication was predominantly mediated through spontaneous, …

Journal of ICSAR

Inclusive education remains a persistent challenge in remote and underserved areas, where structural limitations, sociocultural complexities, and limited professional capacity intersect. This study explores the barriers and enabling factors shaping inclusive education practices in Papua, Indonesia, a region characterized by high geographic isolation and rich cultural diversity. Using a descriptive qualitative design, data were collected through interviews, classroom observations, and document analysis involving early childhood and primary schools in Jayapura. Findings reveal four major constraints: limited teacher competence in identifying and supporting learners with disabilities, absence of systematic assessment procedures, insufficient infrastructure and learning resources, and weak cross-sector collaboration. Nevertheless, …

Cross-Cultural Perspectives On The Development Of Critical Thinking In Deaf Students: A Comparative Study Between Indonesia And Finland, Fariyeni Fariyeni, Nurhastuti Nurhastuti

Journal of ICSAR

This study examines how cultural context shapes the development of critical thinking skills in deaf students through a comparative cross-cultural analysis of Indonesia and Finland. Although critical thinking is recognized as a core 21st-century competency, it remains underexplored in deaf education, particularly from a cross-cultural perspective. The research employed a qualitative, descriptive, and comparative design. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation, and analysed using comparative thematic analysis. Trustworthiness was ensured through source and method triangulation, peer debriefing with inclusive education experts, and member checking with participants. Participants included secondary-level deaf students, special education (SLB) teachers, and inclusive teachers …

Chronic Sleep Restriction Induces Oculomotor Impairment With Inadequate Compensation, Erin E. Flynn-Evans, Terence L. Tyson, Gregory Costedoat, Sean Pradhan, Leland S. Stone Jan 2026

Chronic Sleep Restriction Induces Oculomotor Impairment With Inadequate Compensation, Erin E. Flynn-Evans, Terence L. Tyson, Gregory Costedoat, Sean Pradhan, Leland S. Stone

Faculty Research, Scholarly, and Creative Activity

Study Objectives Chronic sleep loss is widespread and can cause deficits in vigilant attention. There are few practical biomarkers that can be used to assess the impact of chronic sleep loss on alertness and performance. Those that are available, such as tests of vigilant attention, cannot discriminate chronic sleep loss from other impairments, like alcohol intoxication, limiting the use of such tools. We aimed to test whether a suite of behavioral oculometrics would be sensitive, and perhaps specific, to chronic sleep restriction (CSR). Methods We conducted a randomized, counterbalanced, cross-over study to compare behavioral oculometrics following a week of 5 …

Konstruksi The Other Dan Representasi Anti-Semit Dalam Stereotip Yahudi Fagin, Hardina Hardina, Muarifuddin Muarif, Rahmawati Azi

Journal of Language, Literature, and Arts

This article employs Stuart Hall’s (1997) theory of representation to analyze the construction of The Other in the portrayal of Fagin as a Jewish character in Charles Dickens’ novel Oliver Twist. The study focuses on how practices of representation, stereotyping, and anti-Semitic racism are constructed through language and narrative structure. The main aim is to identify forms of anti-Semitic representation and the ideological mechanisms that shape Jewish identity as an outsider (The Other). The research uses a qualitative descriptive method with a literary and cultural studies approach, analyzing text, characters, and narrative based on concepts of representation, stereotyping, encoding-decoding, and …

Interiority And Resilience, Paramita Atmodiwirjo, Yandi Andri Yatmo Jan 2026

Interiority And Resilience, Paramita Atmodiwirjo, Yandi Andri Yatmo

Interiority

The disciplines of interior architecture and interior design operate within a world characterised by constant changes. Projecting the future of the interior requires an understanding of how the discipline and practice can manoeuvre exquisitely within such complexities. It calls for design scholarship that promotes resilience as a key condition for responding to constant changes. The interior demonstrates resilience through its capacity to sustain culture, humanistic values, and local sociospatial practices, allowing it to navigate the dynamics of global flux. A call for interior resilience presents an opportunity for interior practices grounded in humanistic and cultural approaches to address uncertainties, instability, …

Solitary Interiority In Hong Kong Public Spaces, Xia Bi, Kin Wai Michael Siu, Rosina Yuan Jan 2026

Solitary Interiority In Hong Kong Public Spaces, Xia Bi, Kin Wai Michael Siu, Rosina Yuan

Interiority

Hong Kong's dense urban environment, constrained housing, and relentless tempo of everyday life create a context in which solitude is both scarce and valued. This article develops the concept of solitary interiority to capture how moments of solitude in public space generate interiority as a relational condition through the interplay of bodies, atmospheres, and cultural norms. Drawing on ethnographic interviews and multisensory experiential reflection, the article demonstrates how solitary interiority arises from the blurring of boundaries between the domestic and the urban, the self and others, and the private and the public. Individuals extend certain home-like qualities into public spaces, …

Neuroscience And Humanism In Norman Foster's Architecture, Francisco Javier Lahuerta Ferris, Bartolomé Serra Soriano Jan 2026

Neuroscience And Humanism In Norman Foster's Architecture, Francisco Javier Lahuerta Ferris, Bartolomé Serra Soriano

Interiority

The work of Norman Foster, often labelled as 'high-tech,' is renowned for its structural expressionism and technological rationalism. However, it is grounded in the conception of a unified whole in which science, technology, and the humanities are inseparable facets that shape both human beings and the spaces they design and inhabit. This article analyses the correlations between the new paradigms established by neuroscience and the design principles of Foster's architecture: the integral conception of reality, optimisation, and energy balance (homeostasis) as survival factors guiding decisions, and the role of perception, emotions, and feelings in the creation and evaluation of architectural …

Embodied Interiority In The Shishinden: Ritual Space, Political Symbolism, And Interior Experience In Japanese Imperial Architecture, İlknur Yüksel Schwamborn Jan 2026

Embodied Interiority In The Shishinden: Ritual Space, Political Symbolism, And Interior Experience In Japanese Imperial Architecture, İlknur Yüksel Schwamborn

Interiority

This study investigates the Shishinden, the principal ceremonial hall of the Kyoto Imperial Palace, as a site where spatial hierarchy, ritual movement, and material atmosphere converge to construct a unique form of interiority. Rather than treating the hall merely as a stylistic or historical artifact, the paper analyses how interior experience is actively produced through embodied ritual practices, symbolic spatial organisation, and sensory orchestration. By focusing on the interaction between architecture, politics, and cultural cosmology, the study demonstrates how the Shishinden functions as an affective interior that communicates imperial authority and sacred order. The findings contribute to contemporary interiority discourse …

A "Simple" Second Look: The Argument For Mandatory Judicial Recusal In Pennsylvania Post Conviction Hearings, Taylor Banks Jan 2026

A "Simple" Second Look: The Argument For Mandatory Judicial Recusal In Pennsylvania Post Conviction Hearings, Taylor Banks

Criminal Law Society Blog

The Due Process Clause guarantees criminal defendants an impartial adjudicator, yet post-conviction proceedings often escape meaningful judicial recusal. In Pennsylvania, the same judge who presided over a criminal trial commonly adjudicates that defendant’s post-conviction review, even when prior rulings are challenged. This Article argues that such self-review creates an objectively intolerable risk of bias, undermining due process and public confidence in the judiciary. Drawing on Supreme Court precedent and psychological research on confirmation bias, the Article demonstrates that existing recusal standards fail to address structural risks in post-conviction adjudication. It proposes legislative reform mandating judicial recusal when a judge previously …

Critical Design And The Robotic Imaginary: Design Criticism And Critical Robots, Jörgen Behrendtz Jan 2026

Critical Design And The Robotic Imaginary: Design Criticism And Critical Robots, Jörgen Behrendtz

The Journal of Sociotechnical Critique

This paper brings critical design and design criticism to critical robot studies. Critical design can be described as an umbrella term for approaches making use of speculative designs to highlight and challenge narrow assumptions, preconceptions or even taken-for-granted truths about the role products play (in a wide sense) in everyday life. Design criticism refers to a reasoned procedure that investigates emancipatory and/or limiting potentials of designs, theorizes the roles of affordances, materials and embodied perception as epistemological resources in media interaction, and clarifies connections between specific design choices and their associated experiential qualities, seductive powers, ideological underpinnings, material operations, and …

Journal of Applied Disciplines

Research indicates worsening mental health, especially anxiety, in college populations; yet few studies have investigated anxiety and related factors in this population. This study examined the impacts and interrelations among anxiety, stress, and social support in first year, first semester college students. In a sample of 119 students, the following models of the impact of social support in the stress-anxiety relation were tested: 1) a direct impact of social support, 2) a moderating effect of social support, and 3) an indirect impact of social support. Results indicated that the indirect model of the influence of social support best fit the …

Psychological Factors And Family Communication In Children And Adolescents With Elimination Disorders, Mehdi Ebrahimi, Hossein Mousavi Nasab, Mehrdad Hosseinpour, Noshirvan Khezri Moghadam

Journal of Pediatric Neurology

Background: Elimination disorders, such as urinary (enuresis) and fecal incontinence (encopresis), involve inappropriate voiding beyond the expected age due to developmental, psychological, or physiological factors. These conditions impact children’s emotional well-being, self-esteem, social functioning, and family relationships. However, few studies have compared psychological functioning and family communication in affected children. This study examines general health, behavioral problems, and mother-child relationships in children with elimination disorders versus healthy peers. Methods: Seventy-two children participated: 25 with urinary incontinence, 24 with fecal incontinence, and 23 healthy controls. Participants were recruited from hospitals in Isfahan. Data were collected using standardized questionnaires: the General Health …

Priming Effects Of Instructor-Expressed Judgments Of The Difficulty Of Quantitative Material On Student Performance And Perceptions Jan 2026

Priming Effects Of Instructor-Expressed Judgments Of The Difficulty Of Quantitative Material On Student Performance And Perceptions

Journal of Economics and Finance Education

We investigate whether instructors teaching quantitative material can influence student performance through priming, a psychological phenomenon wherein exposure to a stimulus can influence memory and behavior. We first examine whether instructors can influence performance by priming students with statements stating that a quantitative problem has “Advanced” or “Basic” difficulty. We then investigate effects of priming on perceived difficulty. Priming does not affect performance but does affect perceptions. Compared to no priming, Basic priming reduces perceived difficulty, while Advanced priming increases female students’ perceived difficulty. Male students view Basic problems to be easier, but do not see Advanced problems as harder.

Acute Onset, Relapsing-Remitting Choreiform Movement Disorder In A Girl With 22q11.2 Deletion Syndrome, Sara Brunetti, Silvia Saottini, Anna Molinaro, Patrizia Accorsi, Annarosa Soresina, Michele Frigerio, Elisa Maria Fazzi Jan 2026

Acute Onset, Relapsing-Remitting Choreiform Movement Disorder In A Girl With 22q11.2 Deletion Syndrome, Sara Brunetti, Silvia Saottini, Anna Molinaro, Patrizia Accorsi, Annarosa Soresina, Michele Frigerio, Elisa Maria Fazzi

Journal of Pediatric Neurology

22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q11.2DS) is the most common chromosomal microdeletion disorder, presenting with a broad spectrum of congenital abnormalities and neuropsychiatric symptoms. Movement disorder is one of the most common neurological manifestation of the syndrome. The literature reports that early Parkinson's disease and dystonia in particular are associated with the syndrome. We here describe the first known case of choreiform movement disorder in a girl suffering from 22q11.2DS, responsive to tetrabenazine after a relapsing-remitting course.

Examining Neural Correlates Of Sexual Preferences Between Persian Homo- And Heterosexual Males Using Psychological Assessments And Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging In Specifying Cognitive Map: A Limited And Cross-Sectional Study, Abdollah Khorshidi Jan 2026

Examining Neural Correlates Of Sexual Preferences Between Persian Homo- And Heterosexual Males Using Psychological Assessments And Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging In Specifying Cognitive Map: A Limited And Cross-Sectional Study, Abdollah Khorshidi

Journal of Pediatric Neurology

Although the brain is an important part of a person’s sexual life, little is known about the correlations between sexual response and brain activation. This study examines brain response through clinical testing to reveal a number of brain structures whose activation are relevant to sexual arousal besides psychological testing according to the common traditional values and standards of Iranian society. Based on initial self-report, 25 homosexual and 25 heterosexual males participated in this test to elucidate the identity and sexual trends via Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI-2). Also, an fMRI technique — by presenting distinct homo- and heterosexual sex erotic …
