CORPUS ANALYSIS OF COLLOCATIONS WITH HEALTH IN THE MEDIA TEXTS
Authors: Sivaieva Olga
Published: October 2021

The media is an influential tool in shaping public’s opinion about HEALTH and its basic components. As this topic has been of great importance lately, the corpus study of media texts with HEALTH can reveal verbal means of how this lemma is depicted by journalists as well as what urgent social concerns are connected with HEALTH and what issues reader are aware of.

The research is aimed at studying collocations with HEALTH in The Guardian and The Mirror newspapers, focusing on the comparative analysis of them presented in the broadsheet and tabloid. Sketch Engine has been used to investigate the lemma HEALTH in both newspapers, which helps to disclose the linguistic means used to outline the concept HEALTH.

The findings of the study prove that despite the use of modifiers and verbs with HEALTH common for both newspapers (e.g., mental, physical, public; improve, protect, affect), the Mirror presents a wider choice of collocations with HEALTH compared to The Guardian, whereas the lexeme HEALTH is more frequently used in the latter ‒ 2,367.84 per million as to 1,615.61 per million in the first one. Furthermore, the tabloid presents a larger range of health subjects while the broadsheet displays a narrower area of the topic with a more conservative point of view.
SPEECH PERSONALITY: PSYCHOLINGUISTIC ASPECT (ON THE MATERIAL OF SPEECH BEHAVIOUR OF SHERLOCK HOLMES)
Authors: Kulish Anastasiia
Published: October 2021

The article discusses the speech personality of Sherlock Holmes in a psycholinguistic aspect. The aim of the article is to identify linguistic characteristics of speech behaviour of Sherlock Holmes. In order to achieve the aim there has been proposed the psychological classification of speech personality where personality can belong to a harmonious, conflict or impulsive psychotype. Determination of the psychotype of Sherlock Holmes was carried out by the following parameters: general attitude of the speech personality to the process of communication, role and status in communication, compliance with social norms during the conversation, coherence of the topic of conversation, intentions of the communicant. Analysis of the lexical and grammatical layers of Sherlock Holmes' speech gave grounds to classify the personality speech to a certain psychotype.
Yabancı dil öğrenme yönetim sistemi tasarımı önerisi
Authors: SARIGÜL Kerim
Published: October 2021

Günümüzde yabancı dil öğrenmek ve öğrenilen yabancı dili kullanmak en önemli becerilerden biridir. Bu beceriye sahip olmak isteyenler gerek yüz yüze ve uzaktan gerekse art zamanlı ve eş zamanlı derslerle bu beceriyi kazanma, var olan becerilerini geliştirme çabası içindedirler. Teknolojinin bugün geldiği nokta düşünüldüğünde yabancı dil öğretimi/öğrenimi hangi yolla gerçekleşirse gerçekleşsin bu sürecin en önemli unsurlarından biri zenginleştirilmiş, etkileşimli dijital materyallerdir ve bu materyallerin sunulduğu dijital platformlardır. Yabancı dil öğretimi/öğrenimi sürecinde içerik hazırlamak, içeriği sunmak ve öğrenim sürecini değerlendirmek amacıyla kullanılabilecek çevrim içi ve çevrim dışı çeşitli araçlar mevcuttur. İnternetin yaygınlaşması ve web teknolojilerindeki gelişmeler web 2.0 araçlarının ortaya çıkmasını ve bunların eğitimde, dil öğretiminde aktif bir şekilde kullanılmasını sağlamıştır. Bugün eğitim ve öğretimde kullanılabilecek binlerce web 2.0 aracı bulunmaktadır. Web 2.0 araçları incelendiğinde çoğunun tek bir alana, tek bir beceriye veya tek bir içerik türüne yönelik araçlar olduğu görülmektedir. Örneğin en yaygın kullanılan süreç değerlendirme araçlarından biri olan “EdPuzzle” sadece videolarla çalışmaktadır, “Canva” daha çok görsel içerikler hazırlamak için uygundur, “Youtube”da ise sadece video içerikleri sunulabilmektedir. Bunlar ve bunlara benzer web 2.0 araçlarında elbette yabancı dil öğretiminde kullanılabilecek pek çok yenilikçi özellik mevcuttur ancak tek başlarına öğretim sürecini ayakta tutacak, öğretmen ve öğrencilerin dil öğretim/öğrenim sürecinde ihtiyaç duydukları dijital imkanları sunacak özelliklere sahip değillerdir. Ayrıca web 2.0 araçlarının çoğunun ayrı üyelik istemesi öğretim/öğrenim sürecini zorlayabilmektedir. Çeşitli web 2.0 özelliklerine sahip Öğrenme Yönetim Sistemleri (ÖYS) mevcuttur ancak bunlar da yabancı dil öğretiminin ihtiyaçlarına; özellikle de okuma, dinleme, yazma, konuşma becerilerinin geliştirilmesine, kelime ve dil bilgisi öğretimine tam olarak hizmet edememektedir. Bunlar ve bunlara benzer çeşitli eksiklikler yabancı dil öğretiminde ve öğreniminde kullanılabilecek özelliklere sahip bir “Yabancı Dil Öğrenme Yönetim Sistemi”nin (bundan sonra YDÖYS) geliştirilmesini gerekli kılmaktadır. Bu amaç doğrultusunda “Yönetimsel ve Yapısal Özellikler”, “Etkinlik Türleri (Öğretim ve Değerlendirme)”, “Raporlama – Sıralama”, “Oyunlaştırma”, “Yapay Zekâ Rehberliği”, “Bireyselleştirilmiş Kütüphane” olmak üzere 6 bileşenden oluşan YDÖYS ortaya konmuş, her bir bileşende yer alması gereken özellikler listelenmiştir. Böyle bir sistem geliştirildiği takdirde, tüm dillerin yabancı dil olarak öğretimine hizmet edebileceği gibi Türkçenin yabancı dil olarak öğretiminde de etkin bir şekilde kullanılabilecektir.

Published: October 2021

Se estudió el efecto de la activación mecánica de polvos de cianita (Al2O3•SiO2) sobre la transformación térmica en mullita (3Al2O3•2SiO2) y sílice libre (SiO2, en forma de cristobalita). Los polvos de cianita se molieron por 6 h y se caracterizaron mediante difracción de rayos-X (DRX) y microscopia electrónica de barrido (MEB). Los polvos se compactaron uniaxialmente en frío en probetas cilíndricas (compactos) y sinterizaron en un rango de temperaturas de 1150-1500°C. Estos compactos se caracterizaron por DRX, MEB, análisis termodilatométrico (TD) y análisis térmico diferencial (ATD). La microestructura resultante consistió de granos equiaxiales de mullita inmersos en una fase vítrea. Se observó que la cianita molida comienza a transformarse en mullita más sílice a 1150ºC. A partir de 1300 °C solo se observan los picos de mullita y cristobalita. El objetivo es comprobar que la activación mecánica activa sitios de nucleación en donde comienza a formarse la mullita, disminuyendo la temperatura de descomposición de la cianita.
Evidencia de relajaciones dieléctricas en BiFeO3 dopada con Ca2+ y su efecto con la temperatura
Authors: Pedro-García Fernando , Barba Pingarrón Arturo
Published: October 2021

La ferrita de bismuto es un material multiferroico que presenta múltiples fenómenos de relajaciones dieléctricas que son características a diferentes temperaturas, por ello presenta grandes valores de permitividad relativa, pero las perdidas dieléctricas son grandes debido a la corriente de fuga que inducen las fases secundarias inherentes debido a que la BiFeO3 es un compuesto inter metálico y para inhibirlas es necesario tener un control muy preciso de la estequiometría, y parámetros de síntesis en general. Por lo tanto se ocuparon iones de Ca2+ como dopante para inhibir las fases secundarias, aumentar la permitividad relativa y reducir las perdidas dieléctricas. Así mismo se evaluaron las energías de activación de las relajaciones dieléctricas y su relación con el dopaje y las valencias mixtas que este induce.
Digital tools for improving teenager's speaking
Authors: Merino Munive Sara , Barbosa Trujillo Rocio , Estudillo León Leticia
Published: October 2021

In EFL classes, Mexican teenagers often face problems when trying to communicate orally in English. Martin and Molina (2011) argue that “…not knowing how to speak effectively limits severely our career possibilities and personal” (p. 92). The present paper reports on a study of the impact of incorporating different online resources to improve adolescents’ speaking in English through an exploration of students’ perceptions regarding their use, as part of an extracurricular English language course at a Mexican public secondary school.

Students recorded themselves once a week using specific online tools for their homework. The main purpose was to give students the opportunity to record and hear themselves as many times as necessary until they considered their work was acceptable. Additionally, they were aware of being listened by their teacher and classmates. Results seem to suggest that students’ self-confidence when speaking in the classroom, motivation to speak and awareness of features of acceptable speech were enhanced by using these online tools to practice speaking independently.

Excessive use of organophosphate pesticides is becoming more common these days. This can affect the level of pesticide residues in farmers' crops. Excessive spraying of pesticides can result in environmental pollution both small and large scale. If excessive exposure to these pesticides can cause damage to the ecosystem. The purpose of this study was to determine the level of organophosphate pesticide residues found in horticulture plants. This research method is a systematic review, by analyzing various studies regarding the contamination of organophosphate pesticide residues in horticultural crops. There are 20 studies from within the country. The results obtained in the form of levels of pesticide residues that are still below the threshold of the BMR (Maximum Residue Limit) of pesticides determined by SNI. Two other studies show that no pesticide residue content was detected. Conclusion: This shows that the sample tested is still safe for consumption. Socialization and education about the doses of pesticide use and how to reduce levels of pesticides in horticultural crops are needed to reduce the risk of exposure to pesticides

Эффективность цитофлавина в коррекции психоэмоционального статуса больных розацеа легкой и средней степени тяжести
Authors: Котельникова М. А. , Симонова Н. В.
Published: October 2021

Изучено влияние цитофлавина на психоэмоциональный статус пациентов с розацеа: 26 пациентов (женщины в возрасте от 26 до 54 лет, основная группа) на фоне стандартного лечения получали препарат цитофлавин (НТФФ «ПОЛИСАН», Санкт-Петербург, Россия) внутрь по 600 мг по сукцинату (2 таблетки) 2 раза в сутки в течение 21 дня; 20 пациентов (женщины в возрасте от 28 до 52 лет, контрольная группа) получали только стандартное лечение. Группу сравнения составила 21 практически здоровая женщина. Эффективность цитофлавина в коррекции психоэмоционального статуса больных розацеа оценивали по изменению показателей качества жизни, самочувствия, активности, настроения. Результаты исследования показали, что у пациенток с розацеа наблюдается изменение психоэмоционального статуса и снижение показателей качества жизни в сравнении с аналогичными параметрами у здоровых женщин. Стандартная терапия розацеа оказывала позитивное влияние на показатели качества жизни, способствовала снижению дерматологического индекса качества жизни на 33 % и повышению уровня активности на 24 % (p ≤ 0,05) на фоне редукции дерматологического индекса шкалы симптомов на 71 % (p ≤ 0,05). Дополнение стандартной терапии розацеа цитофлавином способствовало редукции клинических проявлений заболевания и дерматологического индекса шкалы симптомов (на 86 %, p ≤ 0,05), что положительно влияло на самочувствие (значение показателя увеличилось на 64 %, p ≤ 0,05), активность (56 %, p ≤ 0,05), настроение (52 %, p ≤ 0,05) и качество жизни (43 %, p ≤ 0,05). Включение цитофлавина в стандартную терапию розацеа привело к снижению дерматологического индекса шкалы симптомов по отношению к контролю в 2 раза (p ≤ 0,05) и увеличению параметров самочувствие (на 30 %, p ≤ 0,05), активность (22 %, p ≤ 0,05), настроение (24 %, p ≤ 0,05), что свидетельствует о более выраженном улучшении психоэмоционального статуса больных, получавших цитофлавин.
The Olive Leaf Extract Induced Phenoloxidase Activity Changes in Galleria mellonella Hemolymph
Authors: KAYA Serhat , TÜRKDOĞAN Seranay
Published: October 2021

Since the fruits and leaves of the Olive (Olea europea) tree, which grows naturally in Mediterranean countries, are thought to be beneficial for many diseases, it is widely used in folk medicine in these countries. Olive leaf extract has been used in the treatment of many diseases such as malaria, high fever, heart diseases and cancer. The greater wax moth Galleria mellonella (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae) is frequently used in invertebrate immunity studies due to its similarity to the mammalian natural immune system. Melanization occurs when quinone precursors are converted to melanin and inactive profenoloxidase to phenoloxidase enzyme. In this study, the phenoloxidase activity of G. mellonella hemolymph larvae injected with olive leaf extract in different doses was determined by ELISA microplate reader at 492 nm absorbance. The findings obtained from this study showed that olive leaf extract increased phenoloxidase activity at a dose of 0.001 mg mL-1. Lower doses of 0.001 mg mL-1 did not cause changes in phenoloxidase activity compared to the untreated and Dimethyl Sulfoxide (DMSO) groups. The highest olive leaf extract dose of our study is 0.01 mg mL-1 and the larvae did not survive for 24 hours over those doses. The results of our study show that olive leaf supports humoral immune responses when used in low doses.

Reunion of International Couples in Formal and Informal Relationships during the COVID-19 Pandemic.
Authors: Lee Youngcho , Wiegand Pilar , Odasso Laura , Wels Jacques
Published: October 2021

The COVID-19 epidemic has generated major social disruptions, including the implementation of border enforcement measures in many countries to contain international travel. As tourism has been the most frequent means for international couples to reunite, a minority of countries have implemented specific measures to allow foreign partners to cross the borders. The purpose of this article is to provide a global overview of the regulations of cross-border travel for couples respectively in formal and informal relationships. This research is based on data on travel guidelines from 175 countries and a typology that distinguishes countries that have not implemented travel restrictions (46%), countries that have enacted border enforcement regulations but with special measures to allow formal and informal couples (15%), countries with border enforcement and special measures for formal couples only (15%) and countries that have implemented a travel ban with no special measures (23%). Results show that the specific measures for formal and informal couples are implemented independently from the region but with much higher propensities in high-income countries. However, the administrative requirements, particularly for informal couples, vary greatly among the countries that allow couples to reunite. The article concludes that exemptions are key when analysing border closures and that specific measures could be applied more inclusively to allow informal couples to reunite.
Comparison of the most likely low-emission electricity production systems in Estonia
Authors: Baird Zachariah , Neshumayev Dmitri , Järvik Oliver , Powell Kody M.
Published: October 2021

To meet targets for reducing greenhouse gas emissions, many countries, including Estonia, must transition to low-emission electricity sources. Based on current circumstances, the most likely options in Estonia are renewables with energy storage, oil shale power plants with carbon capture and storage (CCS), or the combination of renewables and either oil shale or nuclear power plants. Here we compare these different scenarios to help determine which would be the most promising based on current information. For the comparison we performed simulations to assess how various systems meet the electricity demand in Estonia and at what cost.Based on our simulation results and literature data, combining wind turbines with thermal power plants would provide grid stability at a more affordable cost. Using nuclear power to compliment wind turbines would lead to an overall levelized cost of electricity (LCOE) in the range of 68 to 150 EUR/MWh (median of 103 EUR/MWh). Using oil shale power plants with CCS would give a cost between 91 and 163 EUR/MWh (median of 118 EUR/MWh). By comparison, using only renewables and energy storage would have an LCOE of 106 to 241 EUR/MWh (median of 153 EUR/MWh).
Quantifying the Distorting Effect of Rapid Guessing on Estimates of Coefficient Αlpha
Authors: Rios Joseph , Deng Jiayi
Published: October 2021

An underlying threat to the validity of reliability measures is the introduction of systematic variance in examinee scores from unintended constructs that differ from those assessed. One construct-irrelevant behavior that has gained increased attention in the literature is rapid guessing (RG), which occurs when examinees answer quickly with intentional disregard for item content. To examine the degree of distortion in coefficient alpha due to RG, this study compared alpha estimates between conditions in which simulees engaged in full solution (i.e., do not engage in RG) versus partial RG behavior. This was done by conducting a simulation study in which the percentage and ability characteristics of rapid responders as well as the percentage and pattern of RG were manipulated. After controlling for test length and difficulty, the average degree of distortion in estimates of coefficient alpha due to RG ranged from -.04 to .02 across 144 conditions. Although slight differences were noted between conditions differing in RG pattern and RG responder ability, the findings from this study suggest that estimates of coefficient alpha are largely robust to the presence of RG due to cognitive fatigue and a low perceived probability of success.
Neighborhood satisfaction and reproductive status
Authors: Neal Zachary P. , Neal Jennifer Watling
Published: October 2021

Both urban planners and urban scholars have been keenly interested in identifying the characteristics associated with neighborhood satisfaction. One robust but surprising pattern is that the presence or number of children in a household has no effect on neighborhood satisfaction. To clarify this pattern, we measured the neighborhood satisfaction of a representative sample of 1000 Michigan adults, whom we divided into six distinct reproductive statuses: co-parents, single-parents, empty nesters, not-yet-parents, childless individuals, and childfree individuals. We found that a simple parent vs. non-parent dichotomy hides significant heterogeneity among these groups. Specifically, we found that single parents and childfree individuals experience significantly less neighborhood satisfaction than other groups. We conclude by reflecting on the methodological and practical implications of differences in neighborhood satisfaction when more nuanced reproductive statuses are considered.
Cardiac signals and the interference of reward on attention and inhibitory control
Authors: Leganes-Fonteneau Mateo , Rae Charlotte
Published: October 2021

Interoceptive responses can act as potent cues to cognition and behavior; discrete cardiac signals can shape emotional and motivational adaptation towards reward-related cues, but also affect response inhibition. Novel addiction perspectives posit an interoceptive basis for the interplay between reward processing and inhibitory control, but there is a lack of behavioral evidence for this relationship. In this registered report we extend on previous findings to examine how reward cues interact with cardiac-facilitated attention and motor inhibition. Across two sessions, a sample of 35 social drinkers will complete a visual search task (VST) and two instances of a stop signal task (SST). In each task, alcohol or neutral cues will be presented as targets or distractors respectively. In the VST, target stimuli will be presented synchronized with participants’ cardiac phase (systole vs. diastole), examining how cardiac signals support alcohol attentional biases. In a modified SST, Go cues will appear synchronized with cardiac phase while alcohol or neutral cues appear as distractors, examining how cardiac signals increase reward interference in inhibitory control. Finally, in another instance of the SST, Stop signals will appear synchronized with cardiac phase, examining whether interoceptive signals can improve inhibitory control in the presence of reward cues. We hypothesize, at systole, higher attentional biases and interference in inhibitory control for alcohol cues, and that Stop signals can facilitate response inhibition. These results can provide evidence for the role of cardiac signaling in alcohol attentional biases and inhibitory control, extending our understanding of the interoceptive components of addiction.
How should we investigate variation in the relation between social media and well-being?
Authors: Johannes Niklas , Masur Philipp K. , Vuorre Matti , Przybylski Andrew K
Published: October 2021

Most researchers studying the relation between social media use and well-being find small to no associations, yet policymakers and public stakeholders keep asking for more evidence. One way the field is reacting is by inspecting the variation around average relations—with the goal of describing individual social media users. Here, we argue that this approach produces findings that are not as informative as they could be. Our analysis begins by describing how the field got to this point. Then, we explain the problems with the current approach of studying variation and how it loses sight of one of the most important goals of a quantitative social science: generalizing from a sample to a population. We propose a principled approach to quantify, interpret, and explain variation in average relations by: (1) conducting model comparisons, (2) defining a region of practical equivalence and testing the theoretical distribution of relations against that region, (3) defining a smallest effect size of interest and comparing it against the theoretical distribution. We close with recommendations to either study moderators as systematic factors that explain variation or to commit to a person-specific approach and conduct N = 1 studies and qualitative research.
The birth of the influencer-activist, a case study from Spain
Authors: Munoz Pau
Published: October 2021

An activist is someone active towards change in political or overall social matters who may carry her activity alone or embedded in an organization organization such a political party or an NGO. The new political realities of the network society as well as the wide array of technological tools available on the internet has facilitated the rise of a new kind of activist, the “influencer-activist” that derives from the well documented figure of the cyber-activist, who is les embedded in political organizations and for whom online social networks are the main environment of activity, sometimes the only one. I used qualitative research techniques of content analysis as well as deep interviews with key internet figures who self-identify as cyber-activists to articulate a clear definition of the influencer-activist along with a taxonomy of their tools and strategies by exploring their introduction into activism, their main motivations, online communication techniques as well as their relation with traditional forms of communication and activism and political participation.

Kota ini bermula dari sebuah daerah kecil bernama Batu Kuning di huluan Sungai Musi, bagian wilayah Sindang masa Kesultanan Palembang Darussalam. Kekuasaan kesultanan jauh hingga pedalaman hanya dapat dilalui jalur sungai, dan sungai Kelingi ialah salah satu sungai yang melintasi daerah Batu Kuning ini sehingga perkembangan selanjutnya Lubuklinggau menjadi marga kecil yakni Batu Kuning Kelingi. Jatuhnya pemerintahan Kesultanan Palembang Darussalam ke tangan Belanda tahun 1825 merubah seluruh tatanan pemerintahan. Kebijakan Residentie Palembang untuk daerah uluan mulai dibentuk hingga menggabungkan beberapa marga seperti Batu Kuning Kelingi dengan Batu Kuning Lakitan menjadi marga Sindang Kelingi Ilir dengan menempatkan Loeboeklinggau sebagai kedudukan setelah ada regulasi pemerintah tahun 1859. Masyarakat awal tinggal di sebuah kawasan pinggiran sungai Kelingi yang saat ini dikenal menjadi Situs Purbakala Ulak Lebar.

Smart cities are currently becoming the trend of large cities in the world and large cities in Indonesia. As the center of human civilization, cities cannot do without the problems of excess capacity and comfort. More and more people are migrating from the countryside to the cities, which brings new problems to the cities. Cities need to change to survive in the future. Strong indicators are needed to support cities, whether in terms of natural environment, society, communities, infrastructure, and education. In this article, we discuss a systematic literature review of research related to smart cities. The systematic literature review is divided into three stages, introduction stage, demographic analysis stage and result analysis. The results reveal important indicators of smart cities based on the conclusions of previous research

The article discusses the stereotype of road novel in Québec in the 21st century, exemplified by François Blais’s sixth novel entitled Document 1 published in 2012. Blais’s novel appears different from the typical road novels by playing with the genre’s codes in order to create something altogether new. The aim of the article is to shed light on the character development, the representations of place and the journey itself presented in the novel.
Carnavalisation et travail des stéréotypes dans La Guerre, yes sir! (1968) de Roch Carrier
Authors: Kwaterko Józef
Published: October 2021

Carrier’s novel was published in the same year as Nègres blancs d’Amérique by Pierre Vallières and it relies on the same dialectics between the colonizer and the colonized that was prevalent in Québécois narrative prose in the 1960s. While being grounded in this cultural context, Carrier transforms this dialectic by setting his narrative in a rural environment and against the background of World War II (the visitation of a fallen French-Canadian soldier whose remains are escorted to his native village by English-Canadian comrades). Such aesthetic reworking complexifies the ideological message of Carrier’s novel. I will study the interplay between national ideology and Carrier’s narratives strategies and particularly on the clash between ethnic stereotypes and the « carnavalesque » and the grotesque.

The present paper describes some orientalist stereotypes concerning women and manifesting themselves in Le Harem entr’ouvert (1919), a short story collection by Aline Réveillaud de Lens (1881–1925), a French painter and writer, whose works are devoted mainly to North Africa. The paper focuses on three, most common, stereotypical representations of the Oriental woman according to which she is, firstly, a beautiful odalisque serving the man; secondly, extremely sensual and thus unfaithful and, finally, jealous and, sometimes, very cruel. The author attempts to explain the origins of those representations and to answer the question why A.-R. de Lens used them in her writings
Les stéréotypes culturels dans Une année chez les Français de Fouad Laroui
Authors: Kulagina Olga
Published: October 2021

This paper deals with the linguistic representation of cultural stereotypes that greatly influence the interaction of French and Moroccan cultures in the novel A Year with the French (2010) by Fouad Laroui, a Moroccan-Dutch French-language writer, as the multicultural and autobiographical character of his work makes this text a particularly interesting and credible study material. We are going to put under analysis the linguistic means used to translate the stereotyped view of each culture by the other and the representation of autostereotypes and heterostereotypes. Finally, we will define the impact of these stereotypes on the communicative behaviour of the representatives of the two cultures in question, in particular their way of either becoming more enclosed in their own identity or, on the contrary, of overcoming differences and finding common ground.
« De la bêtise et du conformisme » comme forme de stéréotype dans la littérature de Belinda Cannone
Authors: Malela Buata B.
Published: October 2021

In this paper, our analysis will focus on the concept of stereotype based on the notion of “bêtise” (stupidity) that French essayist and novelist Belinda Cannone deplores. We will study how she rethinks the “bêtise”, after Flaubert who defined it as the art of wanting to conclude. In La bêtise s’améliore (2007) Cannone gives the example of Flaubert, making the “bêtise” the doxa that touches all areas of social life. The central element of “bêtise”, according to Belinda Cannone, remains in many respects conformism. It is a question of seeing how, in Cannone’s discourse, these two notions – “bêtise” and conformism – are articulated and allow her to redefine her ethos of the engaged intellectual in the public space.
Légitimité littéraire de la littérature jeunesse : les Hunger Games de Suzanne Collins
Authors: Sechin Anne
Published: October 2021

The Hunger Games trilogy, an international commercial success, enables us to question the relationship between sales records and literary quality as well as to think critically about the literary status of Young Adult Literature. Are there some objective criteria that make it possible to establish a literary status, and can they be applied to Young Adult literature, especially as those works are usually perceived as “popular culture”?
Praise in the EFL Classroom
Authors: Leis Adrian
Published: October 2021

This study investigates how praising students’ success in tasks affects the performance of other students who were not successful. Possible and impossible crossword puzzles were used as an experiment to engender fixed mindsets in half of the sample. The average time to complete a crossword puzzle at the pretest was compared to the average time to complete the same puzzle at the posttest. The results showed that students given possible crossword puzzles were able to make significant improvements in the speed with which they could complete the puzzle at the posttest stage. However, such improvements in performance were not seen among the students who had been temporarily primed into a fixed mindset during the experiment through the use of the impossible crossword puzzles. Reasons behind these results as well as pedagogical implications related to effective ways of giving praise and other feedback will be discussed.
The Relationship between Attention and Extraneous Load
Authors: Hughes Christopher J. L. , Costley Jamie , Lange Christopher
Published: October 2021

There has been a call in recent years for an integration of cognitive load theory into instructed second language acquisition practices to assist language learners by taking advantage of theories on human cognitive architecture. This paper seeks to move the conversation on how this integration might be achieved by presenting findings from survey data conducted with learners enrolled online courses at a cyber-university in South Korea (n = 68). Findings show a statistically significant positive relationship between distraction and extraneous load. These results are used to postulate a model for explaining the how the effects of extraneous load on attention can be integrated into second language learning theory. Pedagogic implications of this are the value of explicitly signaling key vocabulary and grammar, ensure spatial and temporal considerations are made when using multimodal instruction, and placing learners at the center of decisions on the blend of media they experience in instruction.
The COVID-specific Measures in the Netherlands – Do They Fit into the General Picture?
Authors: Gundt Nicola
Published: October 2021

This article discusses the nature of the Dutch COVID relief measures for employers concerning wage costs. The question is raised whether the ad-hoc decrees fit into the general picture of Dutch labour law and respects the two key principles (1) safeguarding employees’ income and (2) requesting employee flexibility with regard to the work in case the exact job does not exist any more or is under serious threat. The contribution finds that the emergency legislation does respect these two main principles, while judges refuse substantial modifications of wages and / or working hours on the basis of reasonableness, also upholding the key principles of employee protection.

Instalasi pembangkit listrik dengan memanfaatkan sumber energi terbarukan merupakan solusi untuk pemenuhan kebutuhan energi listrik terutama pada daerah tertinggal, terdepan, dan terluar (3T) atau remote area. Pemenuhan kebutuhan listrik pada daerah 3T atau remote area dapat dilakukan dengan menggali potensi energi terbarukan dan memanfaatkannya dalam sebuah sistem pembangkit listrik. Potensi sinar atau cahaya matahari di sebagian besar wilayah Indonesia, terutama Indonesia timur yang kebutuhan listrik belum secara merata tersedia. Selain itu faktor lain bahwa Indonesia adalah negara tropis mendukung pemanfaatan energi matahari menjadi energi listrik. Pembangkit Listrik Tenaga Surya (PLTS) merupakan salah satu solusi yang dapat digunakan pada sebagian besar wilayah Indonesia. Pada penelitian ini dibahas tentang perencaan PLTS pada daerah 3T secara off-grid termasuk juga perbandingan terhadap tarif dasar listrik (TDL) PLN 450 VA. Selain itu dilengkapi dengan divais monitoring performa PLTS pada remote area berupa data tegangan, arus, dan daya sehingga akan membantu operator dalam melakukan maintenance. Proses monitoring dilakukan dengan menggunakan modul IoT ESP8266 dengan kombinasi Arduino Mega 2560. Objek ukur yang digunakan pada penelitian ini adalah PLTS dengan sistem off-grid skala laboratorium sebagai proyeksi kelistrikan remote area yang tidak terhubung dengan listrik jala-jala PLN.
John Paul II – the Pope of Holiness
Authors: Chmielewski Marek
Published: October 2021

Among many titles, John Paul II fully deserves to be called the “Pope of Holiness” due to a record number of beatifications and canonizations that he made and an original doctrine on holiness. He wanted to put into practice the conciliar teaching on the universal call of Christians to holiness.

In the Pope’s theology of holiness, the emphasis is placed on the Holy Trinity as the source of all holiness. In addition, he speaks of the manifestations, models and means leading to holiness, and thus of a specific “pedagogy of holiness”.

John Paul II’s doctrine of holiness is closely related to his lifestyle, which was confirmed by the Church with his beatification (1 May 2011) and canonization (27 April 2014). Considering his doctrine, life and concern for the Christian shape of Europe, it is a legitimate expectation that he will soon be proclaimed a Doctor of the Church and Patron of Europe.
Pediatric meningioma with rhabdoid features developed at the site of skull fracture: illustrative case
Authors: Takata Sho , Tamase Akira , Hayashi Yasuhiko , Tachibana Osamu , Sato Katsuaki , Iizuka Hideaki
Published: October 2021

BACKGROUND

Pediatric meningiomas are rare, and only a few cases attributed to trauma and characterized by development at the site of bone fracture have been reported. Both pediatric and traumatic meningiomas have aggressive characteristics.

OBSERVATIONS

An 11-year-old boy who sustained a head injury resulting from a left frontal skull fracture 8 years previously experienced a convulsive attack. Imaging revealed a meningioma in the left frontal convexity. Total removal of the tumor with a hyperostotic section was successfully achieved. Intraoperative investigation showed tumor invasion into the adjacent frontal cortex. Histologically, the surgical specimen revealed a transitional meningioma with brain invasion and a small cluster of rhabdoid cells. This led to a final pathological diagnosis of an atypical meningioma with rhabdoid features. The postoperative course was uneventful, and no recurrence of the tumor was found after 2 years without adjuvant therapy.

LESSONS

This is the first report of a pediatric meningioma with rhabdoid features occurring at the site of a skull fracture. Meningiomas that contain rhabdoid cells without malignant features are not considered to be as aggressive as rhabdoid meningiomas. However, the clinical course must be carefully observed for possible long-term tumor recurrence.
Symptomatic interdural cerebrospinal fluid collections after surgery for idiopathic spinal cord herniation: illustrative case
Authors: Ohtake Yasufumi , Senoo Makoto , Fukuda Mamoru , Ishida Yuuki , Yoshihara Ryunosuke , Ishikawa Kohei , Fuchizaki Tomoki , Ishizuka Tomoaki , Okamura Naoyasu , Nakamura Hirohiko
Published: October 2021

BACKGROUND

Idiopathic spinal cord herniation (ISCH) is very rare. Some reports have described postoperative ventral cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) collections in patients with ISCH; however, such collections are asymptomatic in most patients, and there is no consensus regarding whether they are part of the natural history or a complication.

OBSERVATIONS

A 30-year-old man with ISCH underwent direct closure of a duplicated dura mater. Eight months postoperatively, he developed reworsening of right lower limb paresis and new severe right arm pain and paresis. Three-dimensional magnetic resonance imaging revealed ventral CSF collections, which the authors judged as the responsible lesions. The authors initially considered these collections to be present in the epidural space, extradurally compressing the dural sac and resulting in myelopathy. An epidural blood patch failed; however, a CSF drainage test resulted in dramatic improvement. The authors therefore determined that the CSF collections were located in the interdural space, not the epidural space. A lumboperitoneal (LP) shunt was performed to reduce the CSF pressure. The patient’s symptoms improved immediately postoperatively. He had developed no recurrence of symptoms 6 months after surgery.

LESSONS

Ventral interdural CSF collections after ISCH surgery can cause reworsening of myelopathy and may be cured by a LP shunt to control CSF pressure.
Extended tulip cervical reduction screws to restore alignment in traumatic atlantoaxial dislocation after type 3 odontoid fracture: illustrative case
Authors: Dibble Christopher F. , Javeed Saad , Zhang Justin K. , Pennicooke Brenton , Ray Wilson Z. , Molina Camilo
Published: October 2021

BACKGROUND

Traumatic atlantoaxial rotatory subluxation after type 3 odontoid fracture is an uncommon presentation that may require complex intraoperative reduction maneuvers and presents challenges to successful instrumentation and fusion.

OBSERVATIONS

The authors report a case of a 39-year-old female patient who sustained a type 3 odontoid fracture. She was neurologically intact and managed in a rigid collar. Four months later, she presented again after a second trauma with acute torticollis and type 2 atlantoaxial subluxation, again neurologically intact. Serial cervical traction was placed with minimal radiographic reduction. Ultimately, she underwent intraoperative reduction, instrumentation, and fusion. Freehand C1 lateral mass reduction screws were placed, then C2 translaminar screws, and finally lateral mass screws at C3 and C4. The C2–4 instrumentation was used as bilateral rod anchors to reduce the C1 lateral mass reduction screws engaged onto the subluxated atlantodental complex. As a final step, cortical allograft spacers were inserted at C1–2 under compression to facilitate long-term stability and fusion.

LESSONS

This is the first description of a technique using extended tulip cervical reduction screws to correct traction-irreducible atlantoaxial subluxation. This case is a demonstration of using intraoperative tools available for the spine surgeon managing complex cervical injuries requiring intraoperative reduction that is resistant to traction reduction.
