Abstract:

The study aimed to assess the preparedness of third-year Bachelor of Science in Marine Transportation (BSMT) students of Asian Institute of Maritime Studies (AIMS) for occupational hazards through competency-based training programs. A quantitative descriptive-correlational research design was utilized to collect data from 39 purposively sampled students regarding their demographic profiles, perceptions of skills acquisition, and self- reported preparedness levels. Questionnaires were developed based on the Standards of Training, Certification and Watchkeeping for Seafarers (STCW) guidelines to

Abstract:

This paper presents a multi-variate and multi-phase deterministic framework for IT acquisition on a very-large scale. The conventional approach of IT acquisition through open tenders or contractual negotiations invariably elicits different kinds of fallacies. The deployment of the deterministic framework minimizes the shortcomings associated with the conventional IT acquisition approach. The salient factors for ensuring procurement success for very-large-scale IT acquisition are discussed and the notion of “acquisition preparedness” is delineated. Finally, the tangible benefits of the framewor

AbstractThis article seeks to clarify the terminology and methods of planning to avert hospital internal disaster. It differentiates “crisis” from “disaster” in the in-hospital setting. Preparedness, as contrasted with mitigation, is meant to reduce the likelihood that a crisis will turn into a disaster. Though there are some recurring features of crises, allowing for preparedness through the identification of a few high-likelihood contingencies, crises are subject to numerous, overwhelming uncertainties. These include hazard uncertainty, incident uncertainty, sequential uncertainty, informati

Neonates show broad-based, universal speech perception abilities, allowing them to acquire any language. Moreover, an increasing body of research shows that prenatal experience with speech, which is a low-pass signal mainly preserving prosody, already shapes those abilities. In this review, we first provide a summary of the empirical evidence available today on newborns’ universal and experience-modulated speech perception abilities. We then interpret these findings in a new framework, focusing on the role of the prenatal prosodic experience in speech perception development. We argue that the

Many students face challenges in mastering maritime terminology, which negatively impacts their academic performance and their preparedness for professional communication within the maritime industry. The study employed a Research and Development (R&D) methodology, encompassing the stages of Planning, Production, and Evaluation. The sample consisted of cadets from the Politeknik Ilmu Pelayaran Semarang. The

Abstract:

Background Daily oral pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) use is highly effective against HIV infection. However, the uptake of PrEP among individuals at high-risk of HIV acquisition in sub-Saharan Africa varies because of availability and acceptability. We assessed the acceptability of PrEP among participants in a prospective HIV vaccine preparedness study in Masaka, southwestern Uganda. Methods From November 2018 to August 2019, 20 participants (10 female) were purposively selected for in-depth interviews (IDIs) at 3 and 9 months’ post-enrolment in the vaccine preparedness study.

Abstract:

The Indonesian government persistently advocates for advancing social forestry initiatives as a component of economic equalization and forest conservation strategies. At the local level, particularly within Lima Puluh Kota Regency, the execution of this policy encounters various challenges. The substantial achievements in the area designated for social forestry do not correspond with the community's preparedness and engagement in managing the permits that have been allocated. This research aims to elucidate the community's readiness and involvement in the stewardship of social forestry post-pe

Abstract:

This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of simulation-based versus lecture-based education in improving immediate knowledge acquisition and long-term retention among medical students. Forty second-year medical students were randomly assigned to two groups: Group A (simulation) and Group B (lecture). Both groups were taught the same four topics, and students completed a pre-test, post-test, and a delayed post-test five weeks later to assess immediate knowledge gain and retention. Both groups showed significant improvement from pre-test to post-test (p < 0.001), with no significant diff

Abstract:

Aceh, a province recognized for its high disaster risk potential, is frequently subjected to various natural calamities. The inhabitants of this region often face anxiety, uncertainty, and an overload of information during such events, necessitating a selective approach to information acquisition. This study explores this phenomenon, specifically the selective acquisition of health information amid disaster scenarios. The focus is on understanding how individuals prioritize information that they perceive as relevant and valuable, while disregarding what is deemed unimportant or unreliable. Add

Abstract:

Background A critical component of disaster preparedness in hospitals is experiential education and training of health care professionals. A live drill is a well-established, effective training approach, but cost restraints and logistic constraints make clinical implementation challenging, and training opportunities with live drills may be severely limited. Virtual reality simulation (VRS) technology may offer a viable training alternative with its inherent features of reproducibility, just-in-time training, and repeatability.

Abstract:

AbstractObservations on strain behaviour and direct demonstrations of natural selection establish that the scrapie agent and prions in general are able to evolve. Accordingly, it is conceivable that atypical non-contagious scrapie in sheep and goats can transform to classical contagious scrapie under particular circumstances. In consequence, atypical scrapie can be regarded as a latent hazard that warrants comprehensive risk assessment and biosecurity preparedness planning. Evidence for this proposition comes from differences in the expression of atypical and classical scrapie that may make sc
