Biomechanical investigation of individual with over-pronation and over-supination foot during walking / Nur Saibah Ghani
Get PDFOver-pronation and over-supination foot conditions are foot deformity that can lead to unstable ankle and subtalar joint during walking. They are define as condition where the foot roll in and out excessively from its neutral line and can lead to misalignment of the foot and leg in human in which can create abnormal gait cycle. Therefore, the purposes of this study are to analyze the foot-ankle joint biomechanical behavior including the range of motion, joint moment, joint power and GRF in a complete gait cycle for all subjects in this study and to compare the foot-ankle biomechanical behavior between normal foot with over-pronation and over-supination foot condition during walking. 20 subjects were volunteer but only 16 passed the selection test and divided into three groups; normal subjects (n=2), over-pronation (n=7) and over-supination (n=7). Motion analysis system was used to observe and analyze the gait cycle in individual with over-pronation and over-supination conditions. The raw data that we got from motion analysis will be statistically analyzed using the Nexus 1.3 and MATLAB_R2019a software. The result observed were kinematics and kinetic parameter of foot during walking. The statistical analysis done to compare normal foot with OP foot condition shows that the ankle joint during the initial contact was below 5° for all subjects. Subject 2 shows the lowest ankle angle during initial contact while for mid stance phase, subject 3 shows the highest ankle angle which was 24.15° on left foot and 28.30° on right foot. From the ANOVA test, the p-value for ankle joint angle was less than 0.05, which indicates that there was significant difference between all the subjects. For joint moment and power the p-values found was less than 0.05 which indicates there was significance differences between over-pronation compare to normal foot condition. While for subjects with over-supination condition, they tends to be in plantar flexion condition during heel strike phase rather than in neutral position because the high arch put the foot in plantar flexion position such as subject 1(-0.69), subject 3 (-
iv
0.33°), subject 5 (-0.38°) and subject 7 (-4.55°). While the normal subject starts this phase at neutral position (0°) and a little dorsiflexion (2.97°). The statistical analysis for kinetic and kinematic data when comparing over-supination foot condition with normal foot condition shows that the p-values were more than 0.05 that indicates there were no significant differences between these two conditions. Therefore, this research concluded that the analyzed done on kinetic and kinematic data to demonstrate that the ankle joint angle, moment, power and GRF does in fact influence by the condition of the foot and can cause deformities if no proper treatment was done
Using newspapers to improve narrative writing among secondary school students / Saibah binti Awang Ahmad
Get PDFDue to limited exposure and usage of the English language, many secondary school students in rural areas have difficulty in writing a narrative essay. The main reason given is lack of vocabulary. Hence, this research is to find out the student’s performance in narrative essay writing after an intervention in vocabulary acquisition using The Star newspaper as an alternative teaching and learning material. Activities using the newspaper are carried out for six weeks, at a frequency of 2 to 3 times a week. The methods applied in this study are pretest, post-test and interviews. The pre-test and post-test design is used to gather the quantitative data and interviews with the teacher and students are used to obtain qualitative data. The tests comprise free writing where the participants write a story that ends with the ‘line’ given. The participants of this research are 30 Form Four students from a rural secondary school in the district of Gombak, Selangor. After the administration of the pre-test, the students carry out 5 vocabulary worksheets and 3 writing worksheets based on selected articles from The Star. During the treatment, their behaviors or attitudes in responding to the questions asked and also their reactions to the teacher’s instruction were recorded as field notes. Upon completion of the 8 worksheets, a post-test was administered. The difference between the pre and post-test scores for each student was then analyzed. Out of the 30 participants, 9 students (30%) were selected to be interviewed. The teacher was also interviewed. The result indicated that the activities using the newspaper did help the students to acquire more vocabulary, however, the newly acquired vocabulary helped improve the narrative writing of good and average students only. This is because these students know how to use the words learned correctly in elaborating their ideas. Whereas, for the weak students, they need more time to learn how to apply the words in their essay
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Get PDF“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Get PDFWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Get PDFWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
