Published: April 2024

Este artículo se propone analizar las estrategias de gestión del patrimonio familiar, desplegadas por las mujeres de la zona de Melipilla (Chile), durante el ciclo 1810-1837. Hemos podido establecer que este período fue particularmente complejo en la vida de las familias tanto populares como de elite, debido a las contingencias impuestas por la guerra de Independencia y por los conflictos civiles asociados a la construcción del Estado. Pese a ello las mujeres que se encontraban solas, debido al reclutamiento, fuga o encarcelamiento de sus esposos, padres o hijos, lograron llevar a cabo diferentes iniciativas de administración patrimonial, como la compra, venta y arrendamiento de tierras, viviendas y enseres, así como en el desarrollo de pequeñas empresas productivas y comerciales. Este trabajo se apoyó en fuentes notariales y judiciales, contenidas en el Archivo Histórico Nacional.

Published: April 2024

Background: Developing countries are facing a number of health issues and spend a huge amount of money on them. Out of the health issues, Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) is a major global public health problem causing substantial mortality and disability among adults as well as young people. Also, people spend a lot of money to take care of TBI patients. So, this study aims at identifying how in-hospital survival differs with age of TBI patients. Objective: To study the survival of different age groups at different levels of Traumatic Brain Injury(TBI). Methodology: The patients having brain injury and admitted to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) ward with an age between 18 and 55 years are included in the study. Every patient will be followed up to death or discharge or up to the 21st day after admission to the ICU. We used Kaplan Meier (KM) survival plots to compare survival rates in different age groups and different levels of brain injury. Results: We found that 77% are male and 33% are female patients. About 85% of brain injuries are due to the Road Traffic Accidents (RTA) and 10% due to violations of traffic rules. Mild, Moderate, and severely injured patients are 46%, 25%, and 29% respectively. Conclusion: As age increases, the in-hospital survival rate of TBI patients increases. In-hospital survival rate of TBI patients in the age groups 18–30 and 44–55 increases as the level of injury increases.

Authors: Mpuangnan Kofi Nkonkonya , Govender Samantha , Mhlongo Hlengiwe Romualda , Osei Frank Sarpong
Published: April 2024

African higher educational institutions are characterized by limited resources hindering progress.  Employees in such institutions are inclined to maintain dedication to their roles, address challenges and pursue excellence in their tasks. Motivation and leadership style play a crucial role in overcoming these challenges. Therefore, this study focuses on the relationship between motivation, participative leadership style, job satisfaction and employee performance at public universities in Ghana. It explored the impact of motivation and participative leadership style on employee performance as well as how job satisfaction plays a moderating role in achieving a goal. This study determined how work satisfaction mediated motivation, participatory leadership style and employee performance in six Ghanaian public universities. A quantitative approach was adopted and a structured questionnaire was administered to 306 university employees who were selected by using both cluster and simple random sampling techniques. The acquired data were analyzed quantitatively by using the Structural Equation Model (SEM) in response to the given hypothesis. The findings revealed that motivation and a participatory leadership style had a considerable positive impact on staff performance. Furthermore, the study revealed that job satisfaction served as a mediator in the relationship between motivation, a participative leadership style and employee performance. Based on the findings, it is recommended that employers at public universities enhance employee motivation and engagement. This can be done by fostering a work environment characterized by supportive leadership, opportunities for growth and development and cultivating a culture that emphasizes appreciation and acknowledgment of performance.

Published: April 2024

Organizations need to focus on employee loyalty, commitment and retention in a dynamic business environment to gain a competitive advantage over rural areas.  The success factors for organizational development and well-being are excessively contingent on engaged and skilled employees. This study is anticipated to examine the mediating role of employee loyalty and job engagement on the relationships between job satisfaction and intention to leave in the case of bank employees in Mongolia. The study used data from 444 employees across two private banks in Mongolia. Reliability analysis, correlation analysis, and structural equation modeling (SEM) were used to analyze the data. Results showed a moderately positive relationship between job satisfaction and job engagement and a negative relationship with the intention to leave. Employee loyalty had a weak and negative correlation with job engagement. Employee loyalty was found to partially mediate the relationship between job satisfaction and the intention to leave while job engagement showed no mediation effect. Improving job satisfaction can enhance employee loyalty and reduce intentions to leave the bank. However, enhancing engagement may not affect turnover intentions. Banks should focus on building loyalty among satisfied employees to retain talent. The mediating role of loyalty highlights its importance in influencing whether satisfied employees consider leaving. This study demonstrates the importance of employee loyalty in partially explaining the mechanism behind the relationship between job satisfaction and retention among Mongolian bank employees. The findings provide insights to help banks improve talent management strategies and retention.

Published: April 2024

O estigma é um processo social associado às relações de poder, apoiado em raízes histórico-culturais. Pode ser consequente de vários fatores, como nas relações de gênero e as alterações do estado de saúde, como na pandemia por Covid-19. Diante deste cenário, objetivou-se avaliar as propriedades psicométricas de uma escala adaptada para estimar o estigma em mulheres que contraíram a Covid-19. Trata-se de um estudo transversal de prevalência, com abordagem quantitativa, de base populacional, no qual foram entrevistadas (n=228) mulheres que testaram positivo após terem sido notificadas por apresentarem sintomas da Covid-19. As participantes foram caracterizadas quanto às condições socioeconômicas e demográficas. Foi utilizada uma adaptação da escala de estigma quanto a hanseníase, que visa obter informações acerca da ocorrência do processo de estigmatização em decorrência da Covid-19. Aplicaram-se os testes de confiabilidade (consistência interna/Alfa de Cronbach e reprodutibilidade/Kappa) e, somado a isso, foi realizada a Análise Fatorial Exploratória. As medidas do coeficiente de Alfa de Cronbach dos 18 itens da escala variam entre (0,81-0,90) e do coeficiente de Kappa entre (0,72-0,87).  Foram realizados os testes de Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin (0,85) e de Esfericidade de Bartlett (significância de 0,000). As pontuações da escala variaram de 10 a 55 pontos e a média do escore final apresentado pelas participantes foi de 43,6, com escores mais altos representando maiores níveis de estigma e pontuações mais baixas menores índices. Nenhuma das participantes esteve isentas de algum grau potencial de estigmatização. A escala EAE-COVID-19 apresenta propriedades psicométricas satisfatórias, permitindo mensurar adequadamente as dimensões do estigma relacionado à Covid-19.

Bergson and the Metaphysical Implications of Calculus
Authors: Bagby John Robert
Published: April 2024

Henri Bergson's philosophy is centered on forming a concept of lived time or durée, which he saw as a process of continuous variation and flux. He believed that the study of time should be the foundation of philosophy. By studying time, we find an integration of concrete, infinite, qualitative multiplicity within consciousness that we should use to understand the essence of reality. I show that his insights into the reality of duration come directly from a metaphysical or phenomenological interpretation of integral and differential calculus. Drawing on the recently published lectures from 1902–1905, I show how An Introduction to Metaphysics schematizes the methodology of Matter and Memory and Time and Free Will by means of this mathematical analogy. To Bergson, the concepts of calculus are not mere metaphors; they unleash certain metaphysical implications that problematize the mind's relation to movement, life, consciousness, time, and consequently, reality itself.
Carina Karlsson's Märket as “Glocal” Literature
Authors: Brantly Susan C.
Published: April 2024

“Glocal” is a term that refers to that which is both “global” and “local.” Åland is an island in the Baltic whose residents are deeply attached to a sense of place and that which is local. At the same time, due to a strong shipping industry, many of these residents have traveled widely. The people of Åland are both citizens of a region with a strong sense of local identity and citizens of the world, hence, “glocal.” Carina Karlsson's Märket (The mark; 2019) is a historical novel that tells of what happened to seven women who were executed for witchcraft on Åland in the seventeenth century. Witch trials, however, were not exclusive to Åland, and Karlsson finds that this local piece of history resonates with what happened across Europe. Moreover, the persecution of unusual or powerful women is something that can be seen in global headlines even today. Märket is a novel that describes a local history specific to Åland, and yet the tale extends well beyond the borders of Åland, depicting common human experience.
Spiderwebs of Mental Gum Arabic: The Modernist Machines of Elmer Diktonius
Authors: Mier-Cruz Benjamin
Published: April 2024

This article examines Elmer Diktonius's avant-gardist poetry, prose, and literary criticism, published between 1921 and 1951. Diktonius often entangles Swedish and Finnish in his writing, inducing a disorienting effect that contributes to his avant-garde agenda and separates him from the literary establishment of his day. Looking at his Swedish-language poetry and personal letters illustrates a viscous material poetics fashioned by the author's soldering of languages, genres, rhythms, and sounds. Considering the skillful ways Diktonius processed language reveals how the author challenged literary categories separating poetry from prose and epistle from art.
Ålanders Knowing Finnish: A Necessity or a Threat to Autonomy? The Ålandic Language Debate of 1968
Authors: Scherman Ida
Published: April 2024

The autonomy created for Åland in 1920 along with the linguistic and cultural guarantees stipulated in the 1921 Åland Agreement established Åland as a monolingual Swedish-speaking province within otherwise bilingual Finland. In particular, the Ålandic municipalities could themselves decide whether Finnish was to be taught in their primary schools. One hundred years later, Åland is still monolingually Swedish-speaking. The Finnish language, however, has been a hotly debated topic on Åland over the years. This article examines the status of the Swedish and Finnish languages that was established by the Autonomy Act and the Åland Agreement and explores the degree to which the Finnish language was present in Ålandic society during the first decades of the autonomy. The arguments and ideas presented in one particular political dispute that took place in 1968 between the speaker of the legislative assembly, Thorvald “Thusse” Eriksson, and the premier of the provincial government, Martin Isaksson, are then analyzed in more detail. The debate was precipitated by, among other things, an upcoming reform of the school system that called attention to the question of whether Finnish were to be taught in Ålandic schools. Eriksson and Isaksson disagreed on what attitude Åland should have toward Finland, Finnish speakers, and the Finnish language and on whether Finnicization was a threat to Åland. Eriksson saw any intrusion of the Finnish language as a threat to Åland's autonomy, while Isaksson believed Ålanders had to know some Finnish to be competitive on the job market. The overall aim of the article is to broaden our understanding of how ideas and perceptions related to language and autonomy have developed over time on Åland and to put them in a broader perspective through the use of the concept of societal cultures.
The Phenomenon of Using Examples in Conflict/Peace Contexts: The “Åland Example” Seen through the Lens of Diffusion
Authors: Simolin Susann
Published: April 2024

The autonomous Åland Islands in Finland have since the end of the 1980s been used as an example of how to accommodate diversity and/or competing claims for self-determination and in many other contexts where tensions related to diversity issues persist. The “Åland example” can serve as a case study of the phenomenon of using previously solved conflicts as examples or models for and in conflict/peace contexts. In contrast to previous literature, this article focuses on the practice of using examples and attempts to describe and analyze this practice as a phenomenon in itself. Advancing previous attempts to associate the use of examples with research on ideas that travel, this study employs a framework from studies of diffusion. The main aim of the article is to assess whether a diffusion framework can enhance understanding of the phenomenon of using examples in conflict/peace arenas. Although the diffusion framework helps to conceptualize the practice of using examples as a phenomenon and to highlight the processes and interlinkages between its components, there may be limits to the framework's fruitfulness for gaining a deeper understanding of how and why examples are used in and for conflict/peace contexts.
The Irony of “Drottningen av Åland”: Politics and Aesthetics in the Changing Landscape of Finland Swedish Popular Music
Authors: Brusila Johannes , Ramstedt Kim
Published: April 2024

In the spring of 2012, Radio X3M, the Swedish language youth station of YLE, Finland's national public service broadcasting company, released a song with an accompanying music video called “Drottningen av Åland” (The queen of Åland). The music and the video were created as an ironic reply to a public comment made by Teuvo Hakkarainen, a populist nationalist member of the Finnish parliament, who had suggested that the members of the gay, lesbian, and Somali minorities should be moved to the Åland islands. By analyzing the music video, the article discusses how music is used to create social belonging and distancing through cultural means in the politically and technologically changing environment of the beginning of the twenty-first century. The article shows how popular music and videos can be used to negotiate and renegotiate cultural belonging in a Finland Swedish context. A key argument is that music and audiovisual formats offer polysemic possibilities of expressing both critical and self-ironic humorous commentary in a multilayered form. From this perspective “Drottningen av Åland” clearly managed to highlight perspectives on ongoing debates in such a way that it both provoked and entertained, and manifested and questioned many issues that were experienced as important within a Finland Swedish cultural framework.

Religious Climate and Corporate ESG Performance
Authors: Kong Ming
Published: April 2024

Religion, as an important part of China's history and culture, plays an important role in economic and social life. In the context of China's reality, which emphasizes high-quality development, this study aims to explore the impact of the informal institution of religious atmosphere on the environmental, social and governance (ESG) performance of firms. Through empirical research, this paper finds that: the stronger the religious atmosphere of a firm's location, the better its ESG performance; further, this paper examines the path of the influence of religious atmosphere on firms' ESG performance. The results show that religious atmosphere promotes the ESG performance of firms through two paths: suppressing managers' self-interested and short-sighted behaviors and creating an ethical environment. Meanwhile, the weaker the degree of marketization (formal system) in the region, the more obvious the role of religion (informal system) in promoting firms' ESG performance, which suggests that there is a certain substitution relationship between religious traditions and formal system. In addition, family business can further enhance the role of religion in promoting firms' ESG performance. Finally, this paper segments different religions and finds that Taoism's emphasis on man and nature makes it better than Buddhism in promoting ESG performance, especially in environmental performance. This study not only provides empirical evidence for the use of ESG at the micro level, but also provides empirical evidence for the high-quality development of firms in the context of Eastern religions in China.

Research on Speech Denoising Algorithm for Equipment Trains in Fully Mechanized Mining Working Faces based on CEEMDAN High and Low Frequency Filtering
Authors: Wu Hanhan , He Rongpeng , Dou Tao
Published: April 2024

This paper proposes a high and low frequency filtering denoising algorithm based on Complete Ensemble Empirical Mode Decomposition with Adaptive Noise (CEEMDAN). CEEMDAN to address the issue of noise in speech signals obtained in the environment of fully mechanized mining face equipment trains. This algorithm first decomposes speech signals into multiple Intrinsic Mode Functions (IMFs) in different frequency domains through CEEMDAN, then uses Hilbert-Huang Transform (HHT) to obtain the instantaneous frequency and amplitude of IMFs, calculates the Euclidean distance between IMFs, normalizes it to obtain the average distance between IMFs, and divides the IMFs components into high and low frequency categories based on the average distance. Next, Optimally Modified Log Spectral Amplitude (OMLSA) algorithm and Kalman filtering algorithm are used for the high-frequency and low-frequency IMF components, respectively. Finally, the processed IMF components are reconstructed to obtain a denoised signal. After comparative experiments, the noise reduction algorithm proposed in this paper significantly improves the Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR), Peak Signal to Noise Ratio (PSNR), Mean Square Error (RMSE), and Mean Absolute Distance (MAE) of speech signals obtained in the environment of fully mechanized mining face equipment trains compared to other commonly used noise reduction algorithms.

Purpose: This investigation on the performance of Rukiga SACCO's internal controls was conducted in the Rukiga District. The study's goals were to examine the impact of segregation of duties on Rukiga SACCO's performance, determine the impact of independent checks on that performance, and assess the impact of risk management on that organization's financial performance.
Methodology: The study was carried out after the cross-sectional survey. Data from 135 respondents were collected, and quantitative and qualitative analyses were carried out. Since descriptive analysis requires the presentation of a single variable and its properties, frequency tables were used to represent the data. The bivariate correlations between the predictor components and the dependent variable were examined using a Pearson correlation matrix. A linear regression model was used to fit the data.
Results/Findings: According to research results from the regression model, segregation of duties (R=762), independent checks (R=676), and risk management (R=899) have a beneficial influence on the performance of Rukiga SACCO in Rukiga District. The main finding of this study is that the performance of Rukiga SACCO is greatly impacted by risk management, separation of roles, and independent checks.
Limitations: The structured questionnaire, which was administered by the participant themselves, served as the primary data collection tool. The likelihood of non-responses was anticipated because the researcher loses control of the questionnaire once it is submitted to respondents; this could have an impact on data analysis and generalizability. Yet, in order to guarantee a majority response, the researcher set up follow-up operations.
Contribution: Task segregation, independent auditing, and risk management are advised to be given more attention in order to achieve loan portfolio expansion, profitability development, and market share increase, which are crucial elements of Rukiga SACCO's performance in Rukiga District

MODEL FOR ESTIMATING SKIN FACTOR OF PERFORATED LINERS IN HORIZONTAL WELLS
Authors: Joseph A. , Ike E.
Published: April 2024

One notable completion method for enhancing productivity in horizontal wells is the use of perforated liners. However, a major challenge common to horizontally completed wells is to perform an accurate measurement of the skin factor. Perforated liners can create several hurdles, capable of negatively affecting productivity, such as partial plugging, flow convergence, and turbulence. This paper introduces a new analytical skin factor model which incorporates distance between perforations and explains the effects of flowrate on skin for various parameters like perforation radius, wellbore radius, and distance between perforations for perforated liner completions. Results show that skin factor is directly proportional to flow rate and distance between perforations, however, they are inversely proportional to wellbore radius and penetration. From sensitivity analysis, the distance between perforations represents a key source to flow convergence and restriction to flow. This work describes how model validation shows good agreement with the existing model, and demonstrates the application of the new model.

In addition to their numerous other applications, machine learning (ML) techniques can be employed to address regression problems. Linear and polynomial regression are well-established methods utilized widely due to the simplicity of their numerical implementation. But, when confronted with instances of complex problems, these approaches prove to be inefficient. This article examines the effectiveness of Support Vector Regression (SVR) and Bayesian regression in tackling the difficulties associated with regression in the reconstruction of well logs, with a specific focus on shear-wave logs. Regression analysis was employed to construct models that establish the relationship between target variable (features) and independent variables (features) to estimate the S-wave velocity. The findings of this study demonstrate the efficacy of various machine learning (ML) approaches when applied to regression analysis. The graphical analysis and statistical metrics utilized in this evaluation were implemented to quantify and assess qualitative aspects of the performance, respectively. The goal of this study is to establish the machine learning method that yields the most accurate estimation of the s-wave elastic physical property using the Norne field data set as a case study.
