Environmental conservation understanding is one of the crucial factors which determines student attitudes and behavior towards the environment. This study aimed to investigate the effects of problem-based learning and naturalist intelligence on the students' understanding of environmental conservation. This experimental research was conducted at Madrasah Aliyah Negeri (MAN) 1 Praya which employed factorial design. The first factor was the levels of naturalist intelligence (high and low) and the second factor was learning forms (problem-based and expository learning). Two groups were randomly selected from X-MIPA graders of MAN 1 Praya. The data were collected through tests which then were analyzed using ANOVA at 0.05 significance level. The results of the study indicated that problem-based learning affected the students’ understanding of environmental conservation, while naturalist intelligence did not affect it. Furthermore, there were no interaction between these two factors.

Can emphasis on shared religion reduce out-group prejudice? To explore this question, we conducted a survey experiment on the effect of religious primes on Turkish citizens’ attitudes and behavior toward Syrian refugees in Istanbul and Gaziantep. We used a factorial design to compare the independent and interactive effects of primes emphasizing refugees’ Sunni or Muslim identity and a factual statement on the economic cost of the refugees. We find that religious primes increase respondents’ level of donations to a charity supporting Syrian refugees and certain attitudinal measures of support for the refugees. We also uncovered a differential impact among the Sunni and Muslim primes and found that the statement of economic cost removed the pro-refugee effect of religious primes.

This study aims to determine the effect of problem based learning models with character emphasis and naturalist intelligence on students' scientific literacy. This study is an experimental research with a treatment design by Level 2 x 2. Learning treatment includes problem-based learning with character emphasis (PBL-CE), and problem-based learning (PBL), each of which is given to groups of students with high naturalist intelligence and low naturalist intelligence. The research sample was two groups of students taken at random at two schools in the city of Mataram, namely Madrasah Aliyah Negeri 2 Mataram and Madrasah Aliyah NW Nurul Jannah Ampenan. The data of student scientific literacy were analyzed descriptive-statistically to get a description of the level of student scientific literacy, as well as the ANOVA test to test the research hypothesis at a significance level of 0.05. The results of this study show that the scientific literacy of students taught with PBL-CE is significantly higher than students taught with PBL, and students with high naturalist intelligence are significantly higher in scientific literacy than students with low naturalist intelligence. Furthermore, the interaction between problem-based learning (PBL-CE and PBL) and naturalist intelligence significantly influences students' scientific literacy.

The World Health Organization developed five keys to safer food’s guidelines. This study aimed to determine the relationships between food handlers’ knowledge, attitudes, and behavior to the guideline and Escherichia coli (E. coli) contamination of food served at campus cafeterias. This cross-sectional study was carried out by interviewing 98 food handlers selling food and by testing samples for E. coli. The dependent variable was E. coli contamination, while the independent variables were the knowledge, attitudes, and behavior of food handlers based on the guideline. Each independent variable had five sub-variables that corresponded to the guideline. The data were analyzed using chisquare and logistic regression tests. The results showed that food handlers’ knowledge of cooking food thoroughly was significantly related to E. coli contamination (P=0.54 [P<0.05]; OR=2.990;95%CI:1.093– 8.180). Furthermore, the food handlers’ attitudes toward cooking food thoroughly were related to E. coli contamination (P=0.58 [P<0.05]; OR=0.385;95%CI:0.157– 0.944). There were two factors related to E. coli contamination: the food handlers’ knowledge of and attitudes toward the third key of the five keys to food safety.

Shortcomings in the target article preclude adequate tests of developmental/attachment and strategic pluralism theories. Methodological problems include comparing college student attitudes with societal level indicators that may not reflect life conditions of college students. We show, through two principal components analyses, that multiple tests of the theories reduce to only two findings that cannot be interpreted as solid support for evolutionary hypotheses.

<em><span lang="EN-US">Teachers still teach more and pursue targets that are oriented towards final exam scores. This relates to the formation of character, morals, attitudes and behavior of students who only want good values without being balanced with improvements in the character, morals, attitudes and behavior of the child. To improve the learning outcomes of Civics learning through the Problem Based Learning model using audiovisual media for grade IV SDN 41 Sabangko. This type of research is Classroom Action Research (PTK) through three learning cycles with data collection techniques, namely tests, observations, field notes, documentation, questionnaires and interviews. Data analysis, namely qualitative and quantitative analysis. The results showed that the three cycles carried out showed different values and the third cycle obtained better results so that the established hypothesis could be accepted as true, namely through problem-based learning with audiovisuals it could improve teacher skills, student activity, and student learning outcomes</span></em>

Satpol PP is an element that supports the duties of the Regional Government in securing and implementing Regional Government policies that are specified in the field of public order and peace. The level of discipline of students in Bener Meriah Regency is decreasing at this time. Many students are truant and wandering around during study hours. This study aims to describe how the performance of Satpol PP in controlling students, what efforts are made to improve discipline, and how students’ attitudes and behavior change after policing. This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach. The results showed that the performance of Satpol PP in controlling student discipline was good because Satpol PP always routinely patrols 8 times a month. However, there are several obstacles, such as the minimum budget and inadequate facilities and infrastructure so that the performance of Satpol PP is not optimal. The efforts made by Satpol PP to improve discipline, namely in collaboration with the Education Office and school officials, as well as socializing and providing appeals to cafe owners. Meanwhile, we found variations in changes in student attitudes and behavior. AbstrakSatpol PP merupakan unsur pendukung tugas Pemerintah Daerah dalam mengamankan dan melaksanakan kebijakan Pemerintah Daerah yang bersifat khusus di bidang ketentraman dan ketertiban umum. Pada saat ini tingkat kedisiplinan pelajar di Kabupaten Bener Meriah menurun dan banyak sekali dijumpai siswa yang membolos dan berkeliaran pada saat jam belajar berlangsung. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendiskripsikan bagaimana kinerja Satpol PP dalam penertiban pelajar, upaya apa saja yang dilakukan dalam meningkatkan kedisiplinan, dan bagaimana perubahan sikap dan perilaku pelajar setelah dilakukan penertiban. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendektan kualitatif deskriptif. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa kinerja Satpol PP dalam penertiban kedisiplinan pelajar sudah baik karena Satpol PP selalu rutin melakukan patroli selama 8 kali sebulan. Akan tetapi ada beberapa kendala seperti minimnya anggaran dan sarana prasarana yang belum memadai sehingga kinerja Satpol PP menjadi kurang maksimal. Adapun upaya yang dilakukan Satpol PP untuk meningkatkan kedisiplinan yaitu bekerjasama dengan Dinas Pendidikan dan pihak sekolah, serta melakukan sosialisasi dan memberikan himbauan kepada pemilik caffe dan warnet. Sedangkan untuk perubahan sikap dan perilaku pelajar sangat variatif.

Why do humans cooperate? Lab experiments have found that cooperation may emerge in part because humans have intrinsically egalitarian motives, meaning that they resist inequality even at some personal cost. But outside the lab, economic inequality is high and on the rise, yet survey data suggest that people do not prioritize policies intended to address inequality. If people are intrinsically egalitarian, why are dramatic increases in inequality not a bigger concern? One possibility is that most people care more about unfairness than inequality per se. Here, we report the results of a networked, online experiment designed to unpack the relationship between fairness and inequality. In our experiment, we create fair and unfair wealth allocations by experimentally manipulating two factors: wealth distribution (i.e., whether starting wealth is equal vs unequal) and wealth source (i.e., the specific mechanism through which wealth (in)equality comes about, earned vs random). Our results show that the source of subjects’ wealth has important effects on their attitudes and behavior: when subjects “earned” their endowments, they perceived their wealth regimes to be more fair, and they were less likely to cooperate. These findings suggest that it can be misleading to study inequality without accounting for subjects’ understanding of how that inequality arose.
