Background: In learning other language, higher education students’ perceptions of independent learning—including their motivations, challenges, strategies, and its impact on achievement—are crucial to investigate. ...

Resumo: O objetivo deste trabalho é discutir o conceito de “cinema independente” ao longo do tempo e verificar se é possível fazer um cinema independente, autônomo, sem dinheiro público, sem recursos das leis de...

Este artigo tem como objetivo identificar, nos estudos sócio-pragmáticos, divergências teórico-metodológicas na abordagem da indeterminação. A primeira parte discute, nestes estudos, diferentes perspectivas sobre ...

The growing importance of measuring and evaluating academic performance in academic hiring, promotions, funding allocation, and resource distribution has fueled the demand for better metrics. Traditional ranking indicato...

ObjectiveSarcopenia is a progressive and complex disorder associated with higher morbidity and mortality, which significantly increases the financial burden and medical costs. This study aims to investigate the relations...

Traditional bibliometric indicators such as the h-index emphasize cumulative citation impact but provide limited insight into the efficiency and concentration of that impact across a researcher's publication portfolio. T...

AimsThis study investigated and compared the abilities of seven insulin resistance (IR) indices, including the triglyceride-glucose index (TyG), TyG-waist circumference (TyG-WC), TyG-waist-to-hip ratio (TyG-WHtR), lipid ...

Coherent perfect absorption (CPA), as time-reversed lasing, arises from appropriate wave interference within absorbers, offering flexible control over wave absorption. Typically, this control involves tuning the phase di...

Relationship between Body Mass Index and Saliva Flow Rate (A Study in Faculty of Dentistry, Andalas University). Saliva flow rate is an affecting factor of caries formation. Adequate saliva flow rate can prevent caries...

Abstract Youth badminton performance involves an interplay of structural, physiological, training, and experiential factors more than a stand-alone measure like competition ranking. Yet, in youth programmes, athlete asse...

Optical materials with nearly zero refractive indices have driven emerging applications ranging from geometry-invariant optical tunneling, nonlinear optics, optical cloaking to thermal emission manipulation. In conventio...

Access to health services is a multidimensional and multistage phenomenon. Despite the extensive development of the theoretical framework of access to health care, until now, no indices have been developed to measure all...

Bound states in the continuum (BICs) provide exceptional light confinement due to their inherent decoupling from radiative channels. Small symmetry breaking transforms BIC into quasi-BIC (qBIC) that couples to free-space...

Cleft lip and palate is one of the most common congenital anomalies. Cleft lip and palate patients encounter growth problems in lip and palate area, although their overall growth and development remains unknown. Cervical...

The “publish or perish” culture has become a defining factor in academic career progression worldwide, and Nigerian universities are no exception. In response to concerns about research quality and the rise of predat...
