The character has become a central aspect of education. It has given much more influence on the success of education in the nation. The term character is defined as an individual’s set of psychological characteristics that affect a person’s ability and inclination to function morally. It is comprised of those characteristics that lead a person to do or not to do the right thing. Numerous character values in education have been discussed and proposed by experts. One of them is honesty which significantly affects learners’ attitudes and behavior to do an act properly. Building a character of honesty in language learning can be done in many ways. One of them is through scientific writing. Writing is not only about “what” and: how” to write. Further, it deals with academic honesty which requires students to behave following character values. At this point, the issue of plagiarism should come into attention to build students’ characters. This paper aims to discuss how scientific writing promotes character building, especially in language learning.

This chapter is an empirical research report describing the diffusion of mobile camera phones and picture mail services in Japan between the years 1997 and 2005, based on annual consumer surveys conducted by Ericsson Consumer & Enterprise Lab. A general framework based on sociocultural values and attitudes to telecom for describing the telecom market from a consumer perspective is presented. This framework is then used to put different consumer life stage segments in relation to each other in respect to product diffusion. The change over time of attitudes and behavior is described, and the conclusion is drawn that the product terminology spontaneously created by consumers themselves in order to relate to the product is an important step for mass market diffusion. Furthermore, the group of people who develop this terminology becomes a crucial catalyst for diffusion—and in the Japanese case presented here consists of female students.

Moral distress occurs when professionals cannot carry out what they believe to be ethically appropriate actions. This review describes the publication trend on moral distress and explores its relationships with other constructs. A bibliometric analysis revealed that since 1984, 239 articles were published, with an increase after 2011. Most of them (71%) focused on nursing. Of the 239 articles, 17 empirical studies were systematically analyzed. Moral distress correlated with organizational environment (poor ethical climate and collaboration), professional attitudes (low work satisfaction and engagement), and psychological characteristics (low psychological empowerment and autonomy). Findings revealed that moral distress negatively affects clinicians’ wellbeing and job retention. Further studies should investigate protective psychological factors to develop preventive interventions.

The policies of the U.S.—developed in response to the threat of terroism have been criticized. This is of importance, not only because of the harm it does to the United States own reputation, but because of the influence such measures have on other countries with less commitment to the protection of human rights than the United States has historically had. It is, however, a crucial issue because of the impact that such policies can have on the political will of the international community to respect and promote half a century of endeavor to build an international human rights culture, and on attitudes and behavior in countries affected by such measures. The exception becomes the rule; the temporary becomes permanent; and fairness and due process cease to have the meaning they once had. This Article's remarks are directed to the right to a fair hearing which must be seen, however, in a broader context as a concern about a discourse which, whilst retaining the label, seeks to change the content of established principles of human rights.

Abstract Kotawaringin Barat is a filariasis endemic area and has been undergoing mass drugs adminstration (MDA) for 5 years. The district passed third phase of Transmission Assesment Survey (TAS-3) in 2016. In the TAS-3, we found 4 children with filariasis antibodies. In this study, we performed microscopic examination of microfilaria to confirm the results of TAS-3, as well as the measurement of knowledge, attitudes, and behavior towards the treatment of filariasis. The study was conducted in Dawak Village and Sungai Bakau Village, with a total sample of 620 respondents. The results of microscopic examination are 5 respondents with Brugia malayi in their blood, consisting of 4 respondents in Dawak Village and 1 respondent in Sungai Bakau Village. The percentage of respondents who know the causes and symptoms of filariasis is very small. Although most respondents have a positive attitude towards treatment, the right treatment behavior is still very low. One respondent was found to be reinfected with B. malayi. In addition, it is suspected that there is transmission from animals to humans, but it still needs further investigation.
