Sayed Asghar Hashimi (Ph.D) , Jalaludin — 2024-01-12

This study explores the methodologies for editing scientific research articles in the field of social sciences, incorporating bibliographic research considerations. Emphasis is placed on organizing and presenting both the formal and conceptual structures of the articles in a coherent manner. While correct formal structures are essential, issues in content often persist. The articles are delineated into specific sections (abstract, keywords, introduction and materials, main topics, conclusion, discussion, conclusions, recommendations, and references), with attention to the conceptual aspects of each segment. The significance of this study lies in guiding authors through the process of crafting bibliographically researched essays and providing insights into initiating and concluding essays within the social sciences. The article employs bibliographic research and descriptive and analytical methods. The key takeaway is the importance of aligning the scientific article with the policies of the institution, maintaining a cohesive formal structure from inception to conclusion, and ensuring a conceptual coherence across all sections.

Evaluation Of The Impact Of The Phonological Loop On Attentional Control In Deaf Children With Cochlear Implants Attending Primary School

Belhaouchet Karim — 2024-05-01

The interest of the present study is to understand the impact that the phonological loop could have on attentional control in deaf children with cochlear implants. We selected two groups, each composed of 20 children. The first group is made up of hearing children, the second group of children with cochlear implants, all of whom are enrolled in primary education. We subjected both groups to tests of working memory in its phonological loop aspect, as well as the STROOP attentional control test. The results of the comparison of the average scores show an inferiority in terms of scores relating to the phonological loop for group 1 with much higher scores in terms of interference. The correlation study of the scores of group2 shows a strong correlation proportionally inverse to the interference scores. The limited capacity of the phonological loop would explain attentional control below the norm. The nature of fairly automated language in these children seems to explain these results.
