Diabetes is a metabolic disorder caused by various genetic, physiological and behavioral factors. It occurs due to an imbalance in the body’s insulin processing, which results in elevated blood sugar levels. Its early diagnosis can alleviate the risk of other deadly diseases. The onset and accurate detection of diabetes can decrease the progression of different complications and dysfunction of tissues. The principal objective of this article is to utilize machine learning approaches to predict the existence of diabetes in female patients at a primary stage. Multiple machine learning, including ensemble classifiers with the Pima Indian dataset and a private dataset obtained from a local Bangladeshi hospital, are used in this work. We employed feature scaling, synthetic oversampling technique (SMOTE), and hyperparameter optimization with GridSearchCV to get the best performance from different machine learning algorithms. The support vector machine (SVM) with the SMOTE framework and default hyperparameters achieved the accuracy and F1 score of 87% and 91%, respectively. The accuracy and F1 score of the SVM model improved to 95% and 91%, respectively, with hyperparameter optimization. Finally, explainable artificial intelligence with the local interpretable model-agnostic explanations (LIME) is employed to illustrate the predictability of the SVM technique.

Malaysia’s education development plan 2013-2025 promotes 21st-century learning. Instruction, learning, and school assistance are the key focus. This study selected Rompin State instructors to assess their 21st-century education ability, perspective, and application. The questionnaire was the main data-gathering tool in this quantitative investigation. Standard random sampling chose 152 school teachers. This study used Pearson correlation and t-test for descriptive and inferential analysis. The results showed reasonable knowledge, attitude, and practices (mean=2.95, standard deviation=0.22, 2.94, 0.23, 2.90, 0.29). The t-test showed significant differences in knowledge (t=-2.11, df=157, p 0.05) and attitude (t=-2.26, p 0.05) but not in practice (t=-1.81, p>0.05). Using Pearson correlation analysis, knowledge, and behaviors were moderately positively correlated (r=0.677, p<0.01), whereas attitudes and practices were strongly positively correlated (r=0.837, p<0.1). Teachers have modest knowledge, attitudes, and practices. Teachers must frequently take short courses to improve their 21st-century education. Mandatory authorities and scholars will help instructors professionally grasp 21st-century education. This study found that teachers with 21st-century education literacy can improve their knowledge, attitude, and practice and regularly apply it to their teaching.

10.11591/ijai.v14.i1.pp73-82
Vinutha Mysore Srinivas , Padma Muthalambikasheta Halli Cheluvae Gowda
Search engine optimization (SEO) is an important internet marketing strategy and process that facilitates maximizing an intended website’s visibility with search engine results. It is widely employed nowadays to improve traffic volume or quality from search engines to a particular website. Even though a significant number of publications imply the essential aspects of SEO, only a few provide generalized ideas to deal with the complex structure of the web. Also, the critical issues of content quality, site popularity, keyword density, and publicity factors were not much considered in the traditional ranking algorithms during SEO processes. This has negatively influenced the retrieval rate in the existing SEO techniques, and consequently, inadequate search results were obtained through search engines. Hence, the study considers web page ranking as a theoretical basis for the research and addresses these limitations in the existing system. It further improves SEO performance by introducing a unique web-page ranking strategic design to gain higher page rank results. The results of the investigational study show that the proposed system effectively contributes towards SEO with an improved page ranking strategy and also provides higher accuracy in calculating the importance score of web pages which is comparable with popular ranking algorithms such as hyperlink-induced topic search (HITS) and PageRank.

Positive psychology is transformative in developing individuals’ self-esteem, life satisfaction, subjective happiness, and social competence. The objectives of the present study were to investigate the impact of self-esteem and overall life satisfaction on perceived social competence in university students while measuring subjective happiness as a mediator and gender differences across variables. A sample of 1,168 participants was selected using purposive and random sampling techniques across universities in Pakistan. The study design was correlational with a quantitative method. Four scales, the Rosenberg self-esteem scale (RSE), satisfaction with life scale (SWLS), subjective happiness scale (SHS), and perceived social competence scale (PSCS), were administered to measure the variables. Pearson correlation and mediation models were used to test the hypotheses. The analysis indicated that subjective happiness mediated the relationship between self-esteem, perceived social competence, life satisfaction, and perceived social competence. Moreover, the results showed that males scored higher than females in terms of levels of self-esteem. No significant gender difference existed in life satisfaction, subjective happiness, and perceived social competence. These findings may significantly enrich the literature on positive psychology in Pakistani university students and can assist universities in their mental health programs and sustain students’ healthier well-being.

Theoretical perspectives are important in framing a research model of parental involvement. Despite numerous studies examining parental involvement, their findings continue to exhibit inconsistency when viewed through a theoretical lens. A literature review conducted in 2017 examined the theoretical frameworks employed in parental involvement studies conducted between 2007 to 2011. The primary objective of this study is to analyze and offer novel insights into the theoretical perspectives that underpin parental involvement research, adhering to PRISMA guidelines. We conducted an extensive study of literature published between 2012 to 2023 that met the following inclusion criteria: research papers, reports on parental involvement, and reports on theoretical framework. Our study encompassed a systematic search of electronic databases, including Scopus, EBSCO Sciences, Emerald, and Science Direct from July to September 2023 to identify relevant articles. A total of 366 articles were obtained, and 44 articles met the criteria. Four theories frequently utilized in parental involvement research emerged from this study, namely Bronfenbrenner’s Bioecological Theory; Bourdieu, Coleman, and Lareau’s social capital; Social Identity Theory; and Ajzen’s Theory of Planned Behavior. The findings of this research serve as a foundational resource for future research on parental involvement across diverse contextual settings.

Seeing the many cases of adolescent violence that occurred in Yogyakarta, Indonesia, this study was interested in examining the suitability of authoritative parenting and self-regulation abilities to the level of adolescent aggressiveness. The subjects of this study were 154 class XII students of State Senior High School 1 Sleman. The sample selection was obtained using a stratified random sampling technique. The aim is to obtain student representation from each class. Researchers use the scale as the main tool in obtaining research data on aggressiveness, authoritative parenting and self-regulation. The data was then analyzed using multiple linear regression with the SPSS V26 program. The results of the analysis showed that, simultaneously, authoritative parenting and self-regulation were very significant in suppressing the emergence of aggressiveness in adolescents (F=51.76 and Sig.=.000). Then, both authoritative parenting (Beta=-.37 with Sig.=.000) and self-regulation (Beta=-.35 with Sig.=.000) both were able to have a significant effect on adolescent aggressiveness partially. The conclusion is that adolescents need authoritative parenting at this phase; this is necessary to avoid the emergence or development of aggressiveness in adolescents. Besides that, adolescents must also be equipped with self-regulation skills because most activities are carried out without parental supervision.

Vocational education (VE) is one of the institutions that must answer environmental problems by providing green job skills to its students. However, VE in Indonesia still experience various obstacles in providing this provision, so the aim of this research aims to analyze the extent of the level of green skills (GS) in teachers and students in this country, which includes the dimensions of cognitive, interpersonal and intrapersonal competence as an illustration for developing a priority scale for improvement. In addition, examining the differences and correlations between dimensions and the contribution of dimensions to GS as a whole is an additional goal. The survey method was carried out using a generic GS questionnaire instrument in VE that have Adiwiyata status. Data were analyzed using three stages: descriptive analysis, ANOVA-post hoc Tukey test, and path analysis. As a result, students’ GS still show a low category, while teachers get a high category. Between dimensions show no significant differences. Finally, all competencies have a significant relationship and can construct overall GS. These results indicate that there is still a need to strengthen teacher competencies in GS-based learning management and strengthen collaboration with all levels of society.
