Abstract

Objective: This study investigated the contribution of collaborative learning to speaking ability and speaking anxiety among Iraqi undergraduate EFL learners. Method: Employing a quasi-experimental design, the study involved 86 second-stage students from the English Department, Faculty of Education, University of Kufa, divided equally into experimental and control groups (n=43 each). The experimental group received collaborative learning instruction over a treatment period, while the control group was taught using conventional methods. Data were collected using a speaking test and the Foreign Language Classroom Anxiety Scale (FLCAS) administered as pre-tests and post-tests. Normality testing confirmed that parametric assumptions were met, and data were analyzed using paired samples t-tests and independent samples t-tests. Results: The findings revealed that the experimental group significantly outperformed the control group in speaking ability, with a mean post-test score of 64.57 compared to 48.23 (t(84) = -9.48, p < 0.001, d = 2.05). Furthermore, the experimental group demonstrated a substantial reduction in speaking anxiety, with a post-test mean of 48.34 compared to 64.23 in the control group (t(84) = 9.04, p < 0.001, d = 1.97). Novelty: These results indicate that collaborative learning not only enhances speaking proficiency but also significantly reduces speaking anxiety among Iraqi EFL learners. The study recommends the integration of collaborative learning strategies into EFL instruction to foster both linguistic competence and affective well-being.

Abstract

Objective: Student housing has a significant impact on academic progress, well-being, and social integration at postsecondary campuses. This study examines the impact of on-campus and off-campus housing on postsecondary school students' academic performance in Kaltungo LGA. Method: A descriptive survey approach was used, including 300 students from both private and government post-secondary schools in the research region. Data were gathered using structured questionnaires and evaluated with descriptive statistics and independent t-tests. Results: The data found considerable disparities in academic performance among lodging types, with on-campus students usually outperforming off-campus students. Access to friends, outdoor social activities, relationships, academic resources, time management, security, and environmental distractions are all important elements in determining this. Novelty:The study suggests that addressing both on-campus and off-campus living circumstances will improve academic achievements.

Abstract

Objective: The present study seeks to evaluate the quantification of serum levels of ADP-ribosylation factor-interacting protein 2 (ARFIP2) and growth differentiation factor-15 (GDF-15), as well as to investigate potential correlations between these factors and glycaemic control metrics and insulin resistance (HOMA-IR), in order to elucidate their roles in the pathophysiology and progression of diabetes mellitus (DM). Method: The case-control study included 111 individuals, consisting of 51 patients diagnosed with diabetes mellitus and 60 healthy individuals serving as a control group. We measured the levels of GDF-15 and ARFIP2 in two study groups, as well as the levels of serum glycaemic markers (FBS, Insulin, HbA1c) and HOMA-IR. Results: In T2DM, ARFIP2 showed significant correlations with FBS, insulin, and HOMA-IR suggesting its role in insulin resistance and acute glycemic regulation but showed limited associations in controls, indicating its role becomes more pronounced under diabetic conditions. GDF-15 showed a positive but non-significant correlation with ARFIP2, hinting at a possible shared pathway in metabolic stress and inflammation but in control group showed a highly significant correlation suggesting it may act as an early biomarker of metabolic stress. Novelty: ARFIP2 is strongly associated with insulin resistance and acute glycemic markers in T2DM, but not with long-term glycemic control. GDF-15 shows strong associations in controls and trends in T2DM, suggesting it may serve as an early stress-response biomarker. Gender differences in distribution were observed but not statistically significant, indicating the need for larger sample sizes to clarify gender-specific biomarker patterns.

Abstract

Objective: This study investigates the psychological adaptation mechanisms of 22 elite athletes from the National Team of Uzbekistan when operating in a linguistically foreign environment. Method: Using a combined approach of a sociolinguistic survey and a modified V.V. Boyko methodology, the research analyzes the cognitive shift between rational and intuitive decision-making strategies. Results: Contrary to the traditional view that athletes primarily rely on intuition and reflexes, our findings reveal a dominance of the Rational Channel (85.0%) over the Intuitive Channel (32.0%). The data suggests that the language barrier acts as a stressor that suppresses emotional reactivity and activates a compensatory mechanism defined as "Analytical Adaptation." The study concludes that under conditions of verbal deficit, elite athletes compensate for missing linguistic information through hyper-logical analysis and heightened penetrative (non-verbal) abilities. Novelty: Contrary to the traditional view that athletes primarily rely on intuition and reflexes, our findings reveal a dominance of the Rational Channel (85.0%) over the Intuitive Channel (32.0%).
