Strategi Penerjemahan Lirik Lagu Album The Satanist Karya Behemoth Oleh Platform Musixmatch Dari Bahasa Inggris Ke Dalam Bahasa Indonesia, Saiyidinal Firdaus Sf Aug 2026

Strategi Penerjemahan Lirik Lagu Album The Satanist Karya Behemoth Oleh Platform Musixmatch Dari Bahasa Inggris Ke Dalam Bahasa Indonesia, Saiyidinal Firdaus Sf

Paradigma: Jurnal Kajian Budaya

This study examines the translation strategies employed by Musixmatch in translating the lyrics of The Satanist by Behemoth from English into Indonesian. Using a qualitative descriptive case study approach, the research analyzes nine translated songs through the theoretical frameworks of Peter Newmark and Vinay and Darbelnet, while also incorporating contemporary perspectives from digital translation studies, machine translation, and ideological translation. The findings indicate that Musixmatch predominantly applies literal translation strategies in transferring religious terminology, symbolic expressions, and intertextual references. Although this approach enables rapid semantic transfer and general comprehension, it frequently results in the reduction of aesthetic, liturgical, symbolic, and …


One Size Does Not Fit All: Revisitingworld Models And Neurosymbolic Ai, Amit P. Sheth, Madhur Thareja, Anushka Pawar, Niyati Rawal Aug 2026

One Size Does Not Fit All: Revisitingworld Models And Neurosymbolic Ai, Amit P. Sheth, Madhur Thareja, Anushka Pawar, Niyati Rawal

Publications

World models are being built twice, from opposite ends, without a shared theory of how the two halves should meet. One lineage grounds the world model in perception: a self-supervised, latent-predictive encoder – exemplified by Joint Embedding Predictive Architectures (JEPA) – that learns the structure of sensory experi-ence. A second, older lineage grounds the world model in cognition: an explicit, inspectable structure of entities, rules, and constraints, ranging from knowledge graphs to formal logic to physical law. Neither lineage alone has produced a world model that is simultane-ously adaptive and auditable. We argue this is not solved by picking a …


Kikuchi-Fujimoto Disease In Pregnancy: A Rare Case With Atypical Presentation And Potential Viral Trigger, Nicole Nudelman, Ann K. Valencia, Alex Fernandez, Gustavo A. Hernandez, Jeffrey Valencia Uribe, Brian G. Nudelman Aug 2026

Kikuchi-Fujimoto Disease In Pregnancy: A Rare Case With Atypical Presentation And Potential Viral Trigger, Nicole Nudelman, Ann K. Valencia, Alex Fernandez, Gustavo A. Hernandez, Jeffrey Valencia Uribe, Brian G. Nudelman

Student Publications

Kikuchi-Fujimoto disease (KFD), or histiocytic necrotizing lymphadenitis, is a rare, self-limiting condition characterized by cervical lymphadenopathy, fever, and night sweats. Although KFD is most commonly reported in young Asian women, cases have emerged globally, including among non-Asian populations. The etiology remains unclear, with viral and autoimmune triggers, such as Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), being commonly proposed. Diagnosing KFD is challenging due to its overlapping symptoms with more severe conditions like tuberculosis, malignancies, and autoimmune disorders. Diagnosis typically requires an excisional lymph node biopsy due to the insufficiency of noninvasive methods.

This case report describes a 29-year-old …

Health promotion in tertiary music education lacks shared guidance despite rising concern for musicians’ well-being. This position paper addresses that gap with a consensus-based, evidence-informed framework developed by 122 contributors across six continents and a variety of disciplines, including musicians and student representatives. It advances a broad understanding of health—physical, psychological, social, cultural, and occupational—and positions health promotion as integral to musicking rather than an add-on. We offer seven adaptable recommendations for institutions: (1) Reframe musicianship through health-informed cultural transformation; (2) Transform institutional culture and governance; (3) Collaborate across disciplines and expertise; (4) Equip educators, leaders, and staff to promote …

From Visual Forms To Character Values: A Conceptual Model Of Visual Meaning-Making For Character Education, Muhammad Gufran, Irsan Kadir, Lukman Ismail, Meisar Ashari Aug 2026

From Visual Forms To Character Values: A Conceptual Model Of Visual Meaning-Making For Character Education, Muhammad Gufran, Irsan Kadir, Lukman Ismail, Meisar Ashari

Bahasa dan Seni: Jurnal Bahasa, Sastra, Seni, dan Pengajarannya

Illustrated children's storybooks play a significant role in character education by communicating moral messages through visual narratives. Although previous studies have examined visual literacy, multimodal storytelling, and character education, limited attention has been devoted to explaining how visual forms construct visual meanings that support moral interpretation and represent character values within an integrated framework. Addressing this gap, this study investigates how visual forms in the Indonesian children's storybook Aku Bisa Lebih Baik construct visual meanings, inform moral interpretation, and represent character values. A qualitative visual content analysis was conducted on seven purposively selected illustrations using Wong's (1993) Visual Form Theory …

Visual Aesthetic Structure In East Java Temple Reliefs: A Study Of Line, Plane, Proportion, And Rhythm, Marina Wardaya

Bahasa dan Seni: Jurnal Bahasa, Sastra, Seni, dan Pengajarannya

The temple reliefs of East Java constitute one of the main categories of the material tradition that reflects not only the aesthetic taste of Javanese culture, but also its spiritual viewpoint and the socio-cultural milieu that characterized early Javanese society. In addition to being abstract visual texts, these reliefs also embody and represent cultural identity and values. The proposed research will analyze the visual structure of temple reliefs using a visual language (Bahasa Rupa) approach and visual design theory by examining the four principal visual components (line, plane, proportion, and visual rhythm) that together form the formal structure of these …


Tending To Emotional Wellness Needs In A Baccalaureate Second-Degree Accelerated Nursing Program, Paulette Dorney, Shirley Guider, Elise M. Colancecco, Taylor L. Grube, Karen Diance Groller, Shelly Strauss Aug 2026

Tending To Emotional Wellness Needs In A Baccalaureate Second-Degree Accelerated Nursing Program, Paulette Dorney, Shirley Guider, Elise M. Colancecco, Taylor L. Grube, Karen Diance Groller, Shelly Strauss

International Nursing Research Congress (INRC)

Background: Baccalaureate second-degree accelerated nursing (ABSN) programs have grown substantially as a response to needs for a qualified workforce. These programs are designed to prepare prelicensure nurses to enter the workforce in as little as 11 to 18 months. To maintain the rigor of traditional nursing programs, ABSN programs have demanding, compressed schedules. Recent literature has brought attention to the impact of academic demands on the emotional wellness experienced by traditional four-year prelicensure nursing students (Bernier-Carney, 2025; Vo et al., 2023) but has failed to review its impact in ABSN cohorts.

Aim: This qualitative descriptive research study aimed to describe …

Strengthening Vaccine Confidence Among College Freshmen In The Post-Covid-19 Era, Karlen E. Luthy, Janelle L. B. Macintosh, Alyssa Vang, Janessa Johnson

International Nursing Research Congress (INRC)

The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of a vaccine education module (VEM) on college freshmen’s intended vaccination behaviors, vaccine-related perceptions, and vaccine knowledge. Although vaccine requirements for university students are a vital public health strategy, most institutions in the United States do not mandate all recommended immunizations. In today’s environment, where vaccine misinformation and hesitancy remain common, understanding how evidence-based education influences vaccine attitudes is increasingly important. A pre-COVID-19 study showed that a VEM improved students’ vaccine beliefs and intentions; this study assessed these outcomes in a post-COVID-19 context.

A pretest/posttest quasi-experimental design was used. Participants …


An Ai Driven Harm Response Management Tool To Prevent Adverse Events In Healthcare, Marion Claire Eckert, Greg Sharplin, Lachlan Darch, Georg Grossman Aug 2026

An Ai Driven Harm Response Management Tool To Prevent Adverse Events In Healthcare, Marion Claire Eckert, Greg Sharplin, Lachlan Darch, Georg Grossman

International Nursing Research Congress (INRC)

Introduction/Aim: The size, distribution, and skill mix of the nursing workforce are recognised drivers of patient outcomes, yet limited evidence exists on how workforce, clinical, and environmental variables interact to prevent harm. Despite extensive reporting systems, metropolitan hospitals continue to see rising rates of falls, medication errors, and violence, events typically identified only after they occur. This underscores the need to shift from retrospective surveillance to predictive, data-enabled harm prevention. The PreHaRM project, ‘Predictive Harm and Response Management’, aims to deliver this shift by implementing a predictive harm algorithm across South Australia’s two largest health networks, with potential for national …

Leveraging Data To Facilitate Purposeful Culture Change, Felesia Bowen, Michele H. Talley, Nevette Sample, Maria Shirey

International Nursing Research Congress (INRC)

Background: Academic nursing environments face persistent challenges related to incivility and inclusivity (Bowen, Talley, Sample & Shirey, 2025) and recent studies have revealed negative correlations between incivility and inclusivity (Githens, 2011). Climate studies provide valuable insights into faculty, staff, and student experiences (Test, 2022), yet translating these findings into meaningful culture change requires intentional strategies.

Methods: Guided by principles of organizational change and healthy academic settings (Saunders, Sridaromont, & Gallegos, 2021), we analyzed climate study results to identify priority areas. A multidisciplinary team developed targeted interventions, including faculty and staff development workshops, student engagement forums, and policy revisions to address …

The Influence Of Employment And Education On Contraceptive Use Among Women Of Childbearing Age, Shamoi K. Brown, Anatassia Harris, Kriss-Ann Wilson, Nicholai Levy, Pauline Anderson-Johnson

International Nursing Research Congress (INRC)

Background: Although the majority of women of child-bearing age utilize a modern contraceptive method, there is a significant gap in family planning highlighted by 164 million women having an unmet contraceptive need. The unmet need for contraception is attributed to multiple factors, with education and employment remaining key determinants of contraceptive use. This results in a steady rise in unintended pregnancies, unsafe abortions and maternal death.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to determine the influence of employment and education level on contraceptive use among females aged 15–49 years in Jamaica.

Method: A secondary analysis was conducted using data …

International Nursing Research Congress (INRC)

Virtual reality (VR) simulations are gaining prominence as a method for diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) training in medical education but are seldom used in nursing programs. Although health-related programs in academic institutions have begun to address inclusion and bias, data suggest that racial climate remains a challenge in academic medical and nursing institutions. The main purpose of the study was to determine the feasibility and impact of DEI training for nursing students, faculty and clinical instructors. Two-10-minute VR simulations in a clinical and a classroom setting tailored for nursing faculty and students were developed to provide an immersive and …


The Influence Of Exercise On Cardiometabolic Risk In Perimenopause: A Systematic Review, Bibha Gautam, Deborah J. Clegg, Mary Madeline Rogge, Jeni Page Aug 2026

The Influence Of Exercise On Cardiometabolic Risk In Perimenopause: A Systematic Review, Bibha Gautam, Deborah J. Clegg, Mary Madeline Rogge, Jeni Page

International Nursing Research Congress (INRC)

Purpose: Perimenopause is a biologically vulnerable period characterized by hormonal fluctuations, visceral fat accumulation, and increasing insulin resistance, factors that elevate cardiometabolic risk and contribute to the development of cardiometabolic syndrome (CMS), defined as the presence of three or more metabolic abnormalities. These changes reflect a continuum of metabolic vulnerability that may emerge before CMS becomes clinically detectable. Although regular exercise can mitigate this risk, limited evidence clarifies which exercise modalities are most effective in reducing metabolic risk and CMS prevalence among women undergoing the perimenopausal transition. Despite facing a distinct and often underrecognized vulnerability to CMS, perimenopausal women remain …


Arming The Conflict: United States’ Complicity In Mexico’S War On Drugs, Jesus Oliveros Aug 2026

Arming The Conflict: United States’ Complicity In Mexico’S War On Drugs, Jesus Oliveros

Pace International Law Review

Mexico’s ongoing human rights crisis during the war on drugs has been driven not only by domestic factors, such as political corruption and organized crime, but also by decades of United States (U.S.) policy and strategy. The U.S. has played a central role in shaping the policy framework governing the drug war, often unilaterally, while overlooking significant drivers of the crisis within its own control. Through sustained support for militarized strategies and permissive domestic firearm regulations, the U.S. has exercised significant influence over the conditions under which violence and human rights abuses have proliferated in Mexico. Against this backdrop, this …


Non-State Actors And The Due Diligence Obligation To Protect Healthcare Facilities In Cyberspace: Is The World Prepared For The Next Pandemic?, Dr. Ardit Memeti Aug 2026

Non-State Actors And The Due Diligence Obligation To Protect Healthcare Facilities In Cyberspace: Is The World Prepared For The Next Pandemic?, Dr. Ardit Memeti

Pace International Law Review

This article presents a novel approach by developing a lex specialis due diligence framework based on the elements identified in the ICJ Advisory Opinion on Climate Change, which by analogy, establishes sector-specific elements to protect healthcare facilities from cyberattacks by Non-State Actors (NSAs). Cyberattacks by NSAs during the COVID-19 pandemic exposed the risks, including the disruption of essential healthcare services and hindrance of positive obligations to ensure the rights to health, life, and privacy, among others. Existing instruments, including the Budapest Convention, the Tallinn Manuals, and the Oxford Statements, offer an important but incomplete framework. Meanwhile, the recent UN Convention …


Do The Members Of The Un Security Council Have An Absolute Right To Veto A Un Security Council Resolution?, Asif H. Qureshi Aug 2026

Do The Members Of The Un Security Council Have An Absolute Right To Veto A Un Security Council Resolution?, Asif H. Qureshi

Pace International Law Review

The focus of this article is the exercise of the UN Security Council “veto.” This is done through an examination of the question whether members of the UN Security Council have an absolute right to veto? The author comes to this query against the background of different arguments that have been proffered thus far in the recent contemporary discourse on the issue and then presenting the author’s findings on this, including suggesting a strategic way of uncovering an authoritative answer to this vexed question that has thwarted the work of the UN Security Council in times of international crisis.

Manual Alignment—A Comparison Of The Law Of Armed Conflict Manuals Of The United States And Its Allies: How Reading Manuals Helps Military Lawyers Speak The Same Language When Planning Combined Operations, Jacob M. Fisch

Pace International Law Review

This article helps military lawyers work with allies.  By comparing the Law of Armed Conflict (LOAC) Manuals printed by the United States, the United Kingdom, France, Germany, and Australia, this article identifies consequential differences in the interpretation of LOAC between these five countries.  The article discusses four such differences: definitions of foundational principles, incursion into a neutral or nonparticipating State during a conflict, the role of doubt in making targeting decisions, and the degree of protection accorded to the environment from the effects of attacks.  While these differences point to possible challenges for cooperation between the United States and its …


Editorial Commentary (Special Issue): Cricket And Politics, Roy Mccree, Kamilla Swart, Umer Hussain Aug 2026

Editorial Commentary (Special Issue): Cricket And Politics, Roy Mccree, Kamilla Swart, Umer Hussain

Journal of Global South Sport Studies

Cricket’s global history cannot be separated from the political histories through which the game has traveled. Although cricket emerged as an instrument of British imperial culture, it has also become a medium of postcolonial agency, commercial expansion, diasporic belonging, and resistance to inherited hierarchies. This special issue examines those tensions across the Caribbean, Aotearoa New Zealand, India, and the United States. The four contributions analyze foreign investment and cultural extractivism in West Indies cricket; the reproduction and contestation of Pākehā norms in a cricket workplace; the glocalization of Indian Premier League (IPL) capital and culture through Major League Cricket (MLC); …

Developing Ethical Reasoning And Teamwork In Nursing Students Via Organ Donation Simulation, Miranda M. Smith, Melissa Miasek, Laura Dunaway, Joseph Chamness, Mary Deason, Shikha Modi

International Nursing Research Congress (INRC)

Background: Organ donation is a critical healthcare priority, with 140,964 transplants performed worldwide in 2018 (Lewis et al., 2021). Nursing students often report limited exposure to donor referral processes, brain death determination, and communication with organ procurement organizations. Low baseline knowledge and confidence highlight the need for structured educational interventions (Alwesmi et al., 2023; Bertocchi et al., 2025). Evidence shows teaching and simulation-based learning enhance knowledge, attitudes, and competence in end-of-life donation care (Lewis, 2023). Simulation provides psychological safety, supporting teamwork, communication, clinical judgment, and emotional readiness for ethically complex situations (Masgaard & Svellingen, 2025).

Purpose/Methods: This study examined senior …

Student Publications

Context

Modafinil is a central-acting wakefulness-promoting agent approved for narcolepsy, obstructive sleep apnea, and shift-work sleep disorder and is increasingly prescribed off-label for several neuropsychiatric conditions. Due to its favorable safety profile and lower abuse potential compared with other psychostimulants, modafinil has been increasingly used in treatment for narcolepsy and similar sleep disorders. While its safety profile is generally applauded, there have been an increasing number of case reports detailing rare neuropsychiatric adverse effects associated with modafinil exposure.

Objective

This systematic review aims to evaluate published case reports of modafinil-associated psychosis in order to characterize patient demographics, clinical presentation, and …


Global Contributors, Local Maps: The Story Of Openstreetmap In A Small Town, Sterling Quinn Aug 2026

Global Contributors, Local Maps: The Story Of Openstreetmap In A Small Town, Sterling Quinn

Geography Faculty Scholarship

Digital platform capitalism depends on geographic data to connect users with nearby goods and services, thus playing a role in both representing and shaping commercial landscapes. OpenStreetMap (OSM) represents a vast and low-cost geographic data source for platform capitalism; however, OSM is crowdsourced and exhibits uneven development across space, especially in rural areas. OSM researchers have observed that the map is built by a mix of local and remote volunteers, as well as corporate editors paid to identify and fill data gaps; however, deeper place-based inquiries are needed in order to better understand the process by which OSM contributors grow …
