    A depth one grading g=g1g0g1g\mathfrak{g}= \mathfrak{g}^{-1}\oplus \mathfrak{g}^0 \oplus \mathfrak{g}^1 \oplus \cdots \oplus \mathfrak{g}^{\ell} of a finite dimensional Lie superalgebra g\mathfrak{g} is called nonlinear irreducible if the isotropy representation adg0g1\mathrm{ad}_{\mathfrak{g}^0}|_{\mathfrak{g}^{-1}} is irreducible and g1(0)\mathfrak{g}^1 \neq (0). An example is the full prolongation of an irreducible linear Lie superalgebra g0gl(g1)\mathfrak{g}^0 \subset \mathfrak{gl}(\mathfrak{g}^{-1}) of finite type with non-trivial first prolongation. We prove that a complex Lie superalgebra g\mathfrak{g} which admits a depth one transitive nonlinear irreducible grading is a semisimple Lie superalgebra with the socle sΛ(Cn)\mathfrak{s}\otimes \Lambda(\mathbb{C}^n), where s\mathfrak{s} is a simple Lie superalgebra, and we describe such gradings. The graded Lie superalgebra g\mathfrak{g} defines an isotropy irreducible homogeneous supermanifold M=G/G0M=G/G_0 where GG, G0G_0 are Lie supergroups respectively associated with the Lie superalgebras g\mathfrak{g} and g0:=p0gp\mathfrak{g}_0 := \bigoplus_{p\geq 0} \mathfrak{g}^p.Comment: 28 pages, 8 Tables (v2: acknowledgments updated, final version to be published in IMRN

    KONSELING PSIKOLOGI DAN KECEMASAN PADA PENDERITA HIPERTIROID DI KLINIK LITBANG GAKI MAGELANG Psychological Counseling And Anxiety In Patients With Hyperthyroidism In Klinik Litbang GAKI Magelang ABSTRACT Background. Hyperthyroidism may cause clinical symptoms and physiological changes in thyroid function, and interference in cognitive function, behavioral problems, and a change of feeling (mood) and anxiety. Anxiety is negative emotions, which is characterized by feeling worried and fear that is sometimes experienced in different levels. One method to overcome anxiety is by counseling. Counseling is a process of providing information through systematically interpersonal communication. Objective. The aim of this study is determine the effect of psychological counseling and relationships of age, education, and work with the level of anxiety in hyperthyroid patients in Klinik Litbang GAKI Magelang. Method. This study was conducted with pre experimental method with pre-test post-test one group design. The variables are psychological counseling and anxiety. Level of anxiety was measured using the beck anxiety inventory (BAI), which has 21 items and measure physical, cognitive, and emotional aspects. Subjects were asked what she felt for four weeks. Total score indicates the level of anxiety. The subjects were 45 women of childbearing age with hyperthyroid in Klinik Litbang GAKI Magelang. Screening is done by examining level of TSH thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) and free Tetraiodothyronin (fT4). Results. Subjects who have severe disease and are pregnant were excluded. There was a change between the percentage of each category of anxiety before and after counseling. The analysis showed that anxiety scores after and before counseling process have a statistically significant difference. Age, education, and jobs not related to anxiety in patients with hyperthyroidism. Conclusion. Psychological counseling may be an option to reduce the level of anxiety in patients with hyperthyroidism. Keywords: anxiety, counseling, hyperthyroidism ABSTRAK Latar Belakang. Penyakit hipertiroid dapat menimbulkan gejala secara klinis dan fisiologis, Perubahan fungsi tiroid, dan dapat menimbulkan gangguan pada fungsi kognitif, masalah perilaku, dan Perubahan perasaan (mood) serta kecemasan. Kecemasan merupakan bentuk dari emosi yang tidak menyenangkan, yang ditandai dengan kekhawatiran, keprihatinan, dan rasa takut yang kadang-kadang dialami dalam tingkat yang berbeda. Salah satu cara untuk mengatasi kecemasan adalah dengan melakukan konseling. Konseling merupakan sebuah proses pemberian informasi melalui komunikasi interpersonal yang dilakukan secara sistematik. Tujuan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh konseling psikologi dan hubungan usia, pendidikan, dan pekerjaan dengan tingkat kecemasan penderita hipertiroid di klinik Litbang GAKI Magelang. Metode. Penelitian ini dilakukan dengan metode pre eksperimen dengan pre-test post-test one group design. Variabel penelitian adalah konseling psikologi dan kecemasan. Tingkat kecemasan diukur dengan menggunakan beck anxiety inventory (BAI) yang memiliki 21 item dan mengukur aspek fisik, kognitif, dan emosional.

    On the accuracy of the melting curves drawn from modelling a solid as an elastic medium

    An ongoing problem in the study of a classical many-body system is the characterization of its equilibrium behaviour by theory or numerical simulation. For purely repulsive particles, locating the melting line in the pressure-temperature plane can be especially hard if the interparticle potential has a softened core or contains some adjustable parameters. A method is hereby presented that yields reliable melting-curve topologies with negligible computational effort. It is obtained by combining the Lindemann melting criterion with a description of the solid phase as an elastic continuum. A number of examples are given in order to illustrate the scope of the method and possible shortcomings. For a two-body repulsion of Gaussian shape, the outcome of the present approach compares favourably with the more accurate but also more computationally demanding self-consistent harmonic approximation.Comment: 25 pages, 7 figure

    Low birth weight (LBW) baby is one of the causes of high infant mortality rate, especially in the first one month of birth, in Indonesia. LBW babies are vulnerable to hypothermia. The kangaroo mother care method can be used to prevent hypothermia in LBW babies. This method is not only replacing the incubator, but also giving the chance for babies to adapt well with extra-uterine environment. The aim of this descriptive phenomenology study is to explore the mothers' experience in performing the kangaroo mother care method. Eight participants were chosen using purposive method and fulfilled criteria of having LBW baby and has been performing the kangaroo mother care method in the hospital and continuing this method of care at home. The data were collected twice through in-depth interview in the mothers' house or elsewhere that has been agreed by participants. The interview is recorded and then transcribed verbatim and analyzed using Colaizzi method. The result shows that the baby, who was born with LBW, caused positive and emotional expression for the mothers. The reason and motivation that is expressed by participants are maintaining the baby survival, giving the warmth for the baby, and doing the best for her baby. The mothers followed the kangaroo method as shown in the hospital which is continuous kangaroo mother care method in prone position. The mothers perceived that they have received support in terms of educational, emotional and physical. The mother are hoping that there will be improvement in health care service quality, socialization of kangaroo mother care method, and monitoring of LBW babies' development .This study can be used to give information to promote lateral decubitus position that could improve mothers' psychological condition as well as improve neuromotor of babies , to improve the counseling service, and to facilitate the establishment of support group for kangaroo method

    Various noncanonical sentence constructions are derived from basic sentence structures by a phrase displacement called Movement. The moved phrase (filler) leaves a silent copy at the extracted position (gap) and is reactivated when the hearer/reader passes over the gap. Consequently, memory operations are assumed to occur to establish the filler–gap link. For languages that have a relatively free word order like German, a distinct linguistic operation called Scrambling is proposed. Although Movement and Scrambling are assumed to be different linguistic operations, they both involve memory prone filler–gap processes. To clarify whether filler–gap memory processes in Scrambling and Movement differ neuroanatomically, we designed a functional magnetic resonance imaging study and compared the effect of memory load parameterized by filler–gap distance in the 2 sentence types. Here, we show that processing of the 2 sentence types commonly relies on a left hemispheric network consisting of the inferior frontal gyrus, middle part of the middle temporal gyrus, and intraparietal sulcus. However, we found differences for the 2 sentence types in the linearity of filler–gap distance effect. Thus, the present results suggest that the same neural substrate supports the memory processes of sentences constructed by Movement and Scrambling, although differentially modulated by memory load
