Concept Understanding Analysis Reviewed from Metacognition
This study aims to analyze the relationship between metacognition ability and understanding of mathematical concepts of grade VII students. This study used a qualitative descriptive method, with three students selected based on their level of metacognition ability (high, medium, low). Data were collected through written tests, in-depth interviews, and observations. The analysis is carried out based on indicators of understanding mathematical concepts, such as restating concepts, classifying objects, developing concept terms, and selecting and implementing appropriate procedures. The results of the study show that students with high metacognition skills are able to understand concepts in depth, consistently, and effectively in practical application. Students with moderate metacognition skills show quite good understanding but are less consistent. Meanwhile, students with low metacognition skills experience significant difficulties in understanding and applying mathematical concepts. These findings emphasize the importance of metacognition-based learning strategies to improve students\u27 understanding of mathematical concepts

Faktor Risiko Diabetes Melitus dan Prevalensi Penyakit Jantung Koroner di RSU UKI Tahun 2021-2023
Coronary heart disease (CHD) remains a major cause of death globally, with its prevalence increasing over time. Diabetes mellitus is recognized as a significant risk factor for CHD. This study aims to explore the relationship between diabetes mellitus and CHD among patients at UKI General Hospital (RSU UKI). Utilizing a cross-sectional, retrospective, and descriptive-analytic design, this research analyzed medical records of CHD patients from January 2021 to December 2023, processed using SPSS software. Results indicated that CHD was most prevalent among individuals aged 60–69, with a higher incidence in men. Unemployment was common among CHD patients, and most had an education level above high school. During the study period, 79 CHD cases were recorded, with 21 patients having a history of diabetes mellitus. Data showed a consistent increase in CHD cases over the three-year period. The study revealed that individuals with diabetes mellitus were 3.5 times more likely to develop CHD. However, despite this finding, the data from RSU UKI indicated a relatively weak association between diabetes mellitus and CHD. These findings suggest that while diabetes mellitus is a notable risk factor for CHD, additional research is necessary to identify other contributing factors in this population.Salah satu faktor utama penyebab kematian di dunia adalah penyakit jantung koroner.

PRAGMATIC ANALYSIS OF THE POLITENESS STRATEGIES USED IN THE DIRECTIVE SPEECH ACTS IN PAPUA NEW GUINEA’S NATIONAL PARLIAMENT SITTING SESSION ON MAY 30TH 2024
Abstract
This study presents a pragmatic analysis of the politeness strategies employed in directive speech acts during the Papua New Guinea National Parliament sitting session on May 30th, 2024. Utilizing Brown and Levinson\u27s politeness theory as the analytical framework, the research examines how members of parliament navigate face-threatening acts through linguistic strategies to maintain social harmony and achieve political goals. Data for the study were collected from the official parliamentary transcripts, focusing on instances of directives such as requests, commands, and suggestions. The analysis reveals a predominance of negative politeness strategies, reflecting a high sensitivity to hierarchical structures and the desire to mitigate imposition. Additionally, the study identifies contextual factors, such as the socio-political environment and cultural norms, influencing the choice of politeness strategies. The findings contribute to a deeper understanding of the intersection between language, power, and culture in parliamentary discourse, offering insights into the pragmatic dynamics of political communication in Papua New Guinea. This research underscores the importance of context in the pragmatic realization of politeness and highlights the role of language in shaping political interactions within legislative settings.
