The Influence of First Language on Foreign Language Learning: An Error Analysis of Morphemes
(Journal of Literature, Languages and Linguistics, 2022) Tajudeen Yusuf
Abstract The present paper is an Error analysis aims at to document the errors that appear in a learner language, determine whether those errors are systematic, and (if possible) explain what caused them. The study employed one hour-interview conducted with a student of High Institute of Comparative and Administrative Studies in Cairo. The interview was conducted in a classroom in the main campus building at the American University in Cairo. The study found that most of these errors are products of overuse "overgeneralization" of L2's rules, and NL transfers. Learners need to be encouraged to speak and interact in English at home and with their friends for more progress in fluency. However, focus on rule is also pivotal for adequate balance between fluency and accuracy. Keywords: Error Analysis, English, learner

Teachers’ Perceived Barriers to Inclusive Education
(ASEAN Journal of Community and Special Needs Education, 2023-09-01) Adedayo Adesokan*, Olaniyi Bojuwoye
A B S T R A C T This study aimed to explore teachers’ perceived barriers to inclusive education in Nigeria. A descriptive research design was used for the study. 120 teachers teaching in an inclusive classroom were purposefully selected. An instrument titled perceived barriers questionnaire was used (r = 0.77). One research question was raised, and one hypothesis was stated at a 0.05 level of significance. Data gathered were analyzed using mean and t-tests. The finding of the study revealed that the following are the barriers to inclusive education: the attitude of teachers, inadequate facilities, and lack of peer acceptance. The findings also showed that there is no significant difference in teachers’ perceived barriers to inclusive education based on gender (p > 0.05). It was concluded that teachers perceived that the attitude of teachers; inadequate facilities and lack of peer acceptance are the major barriers to inclusive education. Therefore, it was recommended that stakeholders should come to their aid by assisting them in any form.

Assessment of Factors Responsible for Child Abuse Among Students with Intellectual Disabilities
(ASEAN Journal of Community and Special Needs Education, 2022-09-01) A. Adesokan1,*, K.O Abdulkareem1, T.T Adesokan2
A B S T R A C T The study examined the factors responsible for child abuse among students with intellectual disabilities in the Ilorin metropolis concerning factors responsible, for students with intellectual disabilities and child abuse. A descriptive survey research design was used. The population for this study comprised all teachers and parents of students with intellectual disabilities in the Ilorin metropolis. A convenience sampling technique was used to select 120 respondents across the Ilorin metropolis. One research question and two hypotheses were generated for the study. The instrument used for Data collection was titled Assessment of Factors Responsible for Child Abuse among Students with Intellectual Disabilities Questionnaire (AFRCBIDQ). Data gathered were analyzed using mean, percentage, frequency count, and independent sample t-test. The results of the study revealed that lack of proper parental care, low educational attainment, parental stress, carelessness, lack of good relationships, and vulnerability are the major factors responsible for child abuse among students with intellectual disabilities. There was no significant difference between the factors responsible for child abuse among students with intellectual disabilities based on teachers’ gender; there was no significant difference between the factors responsible for child abuse among students with intellectual disabilities based on parents’ gender. It was recommended, the parents of students with intellectual disabilities should ensure that students with intellectual disabilities are given good proper parental care and monitoring.

Influence of Capsicum chinense concentration and salt varieties on the quality attributes of Kilishi, a sundried beef jerky
(Elsevier, 2025) Kazeem D. Adeyemi; Rasheed O. Sulaimon; Hakeem Ishola; Rafiat M. Shittu
The impact of Capsicum chinense concentration and salt varieties on cholesterol oxides, physicochemical properties, microbial profiles and organoleptic attributes of Kilishi, a sundried beef jerky, was assessed. Kilishi (KL) was prepared from sundried strips of Biceps femoris and marinated with either 2 % Sodium chloride (NaCl) þ 7 % fresh Capsicum chinense (CC) (KL¡1), 1 % NaCl þ 1 % Potassium chloride (KCl) þ 7 % CC (KL¡2), 1 % NaCl þ 1 % Potassium citrate (C6H5K3O7) þ 7 % CC (KL¡3), 1 % NaCl þ 14 % CC (KL-4), 1 % KCl þ 14 % CC (KL-5) or 1 % C6H5K3O7 þ 14 % CC (KL-6), and stored at 29 ± 1 ◦C for 90 d. The partial or total replacement of NaCl lowered (P < 0.05) the Na content in KL. The KL samples treated with 14 % CC had lower (P < 0.05) 25-hydroxy cholesterol, cholesta-3,5-dien-7-one, carbonyl, pH, malondialdehyde, and lightness and greater (P < 0.05) redness and Lactobacillus counts than those treated with 7 % CC. The chemical composition, sensory scores and water activity were unaffected by the additives. The taste, flavor, and overall acceptance scores of KL decreased (P < 0.05) after 30 days of storage. The substitution of KCl and C6H5K3O7 for NaCl and the increase in CC concentration from 7 to 14 % lowered the Na content and selected cholesterol oxides, respectively, without impairing the organoleptic traits of Kilishi.
