Non-permanent english teachers’ resilience in constructing professional identity in the remote areas of South Sulawesi
Being a non-permanent English teacher in a remote area is not easy. The non-permanent teachers have to face many challenges. Without having resilience, the teachers can not survive to teach in the area. This study investigated the factors that influenced the resilience of the non-permanent English teachers in building a professional identity in the remote areas of South Sulawesi. The mixed-method explanatory sequential experimental design was used by involving non-permanent English teachers at five schools in the remote area of Tana Toraja, South Sulawesi Province. The RSA Scale questionnaire and interview were used to find out what factors influenced teachers’ resilience. The results showed that the challenges faced by non-permanent English teachers made them resilient teachers. Personal resources and contextual resources seemed to play a major role in their growth of resilience. The high resilience of teachers shapes their professional identity, which makes them stay afloat and think that teaching is their calling. This study suggests implications for the education of policymakers and the government in Indonesia, and also for future researchers who are interested in a similar topic may conduct further studies with a broader contex
Does spirituality correlate with students’ empathy during covid-19 pandemic? the case study of Indonesian students
Covid-19 pandemic has affected all parts of human life. It affects health, as well as socio and economic aspects. In this situation, high empathy should follow the implementation of physical distancing to reduce the spread of the virus. However, anti-social behavior has mostly materialized. This study aims to explore the spiritual effect on students' empathy during the Covid-19 pandemic. It observes if spirituality predicts empathy and the other way around. 1004 university students from 65 universities in East Java, Indonesia, were recruited to give responses from a set of questionnaires. Smart-PLS application was used to analyze the statistical data. Findings uncovered that this measurement model is valid and reliable for spirituality (Spiritual Assessment Scale=SAS) and empathy (Interpersonal Reactivity Index=IRI) construct. Through a structural model, our study also found that spirituality and empathy have a significant reciprocal relationship (with a path coefficient of 0.564). Spirituality predicts empathy and the other way around. Our findings suggest that universities' counseling units apply spiritual strategies in counseling activities to accelerate students' empathy during the Covid-19 pandemic and to anticipate the future crisis

Vitamin and mineral levels in children with autism spectrum disorder
The aim of this study was to compare the vitamin and mineral values of the patients followed up in the Child Psychiatry Outpatient Clinic with the diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder to healthy controls in the same age group and to investigate whether vitamin-mineral values were related to autism weight (CARS score).Between September 2017 and September 2018, we worked at Bak?rköy Dr. Sadi Konuk Training and Research Hospital Children and Adolescent Mental Health and Diseases outpatient clinic with autism spectrum disorder patients with childhood autism assessment scale (CARS) was weighted. Age, gender, height, weight, blood Iron, Vitamin B12, Folate and 25 (OH) Vitamin D levels of all patients included in the study were recorded. Mann-Whitney U, Pearson chi-square and Fisher's exact test were used to evaluate the data. In this study, 108 patients with ASD were compared with 115 normal cases. There was no statistically significant decrease in Vitamin B12, Folate, Iron and Vitamin D levels in patients with ASD compared to normal patients. According to CARS score, there was no statistically significant difference in vitamin B12, Folate, Iron and Vitamin D levels in children with mild and severe ASD. In our study, it was concluded that vitamin B12, Folate, Iron and Vitamin D levels in children with ASD were not lower than healthy children, and there was no difference between mild and severe cases according to CARS score
Attitudes towards people with disabilities: a systematic Rreview of intervention effectiveness
The improvement of attitudes towards people with disabilities has led to studies focusing on the impact of interventions. This review systematically analyzes and synthesizes the use of interventions to influence attitudes toward people with disabilities.

Based on a literature research, 32 studies conducted in fourteen different countries were included. In the majority of the cases, the use of interventions was an effective tool to improve attitudes towards disabilities. Implications of findings for practitioners and researchers are discussed
Self-reported altruism as predictor for active-empathic listening skills
While there are many consistent results regarding the altruism – empathy relationship, starting with the empathy-altruism hypothesis (Batson, 2008) and its confirmations or criticism, there is one specific aspect of empathy that has not often been associated with generosity: active listening. Our research hypothesizes that sharing one’s attention in an empathic way (active-empathic listening) might be a skill linked to a person’s generosity. A linear regression established that self-reported altruism (SRA) could statistically significantly predict someone’s active-empathic listening skill (AELS), F(1, 96) = 28,965, p = .0001 and that SRA accounted for 22,4% of the explained variability in AELS. The results confirmed the initial claim and may have an impact in counseling practice, in career decision-making or in other studies on prosocial behavior
