Powers of the Election Commission of a Constituent Entity of the Russian Federation to Determine the Organizational Basis for Municipal Elections: Peculiarities of Regional Legislation
Authors: Makarov Ivan
Published: September 2024

The article deals with the issue of empowering territorial election commissions to prepare municipal elections. The abolition of municipal election commissions has created a situation in which regional legislation gives different answers to the question of whether the territorial election commission acquires the authority to organize municipal elections by virtue of law or by virtue of a decision of the regional election commission. The consequences of one or another variant of the answer are considered. In this regard, the composition of the powers and the role of the election commission of the constituent entity of the Russian Federation in determining the organizational basis of municipal elections becomes problematic. By comparative analysis of the laws of the constituent entity of the Federation on the organization of municipal elections and the laws defining the powers of regional election commissions, the author identifies three groups of subjects of the Federation, which present three different conceptual approaches to the possibility of influencing the organizational basis of municipal elections at the regional level. The article compares the procedure for assigning powers for the preparation of municipal elections, which was in force until 2022 and had a dispositive character, and the procedure for the acquisition by territorial election commissions of municipal electoral powers, which began to operate in March 2022 and demonstrated regional variability in different subjects of the Russian Federation. The author concludes on the preservation of constituent entity of the Russian Federation of discretion on the assignment of powers to organize municipal elections to the territorial election commissions and after March 2022 in the electoral legislation. Suggestions are expressed regarding the possibility of changing approaches to financing municipal elections.

A metáfora da mulher emparedada
Authors: Xavier Jordana Cristina Blos Veiga
Published: September 2024

Embora Edgar Allan Poe e Charlotte Perkins Gilman tenham sido discutidos comparativamente, a maioria dos estudos focou mais em suas diferenças do que em suas semelhanças. Muitos estudos focam apenas na escrita feminista de Gilman (1892) ou na loucura de Poe (1843). A maior proximidade já feita dessas duas obras se deu quando Băniceru (2015) discutiu suas similaridades através da domesticidade do gótico. Por isso, o objetivo deste trabalho é analisar um outro tipo de proximidade entre as obras, a partir de uma metáfora que paira sobre os enredos de ambos os contos: a mulher emparedada. Ela aproxima os contos na representação da violência física e psicológica que as mulheres sofreram ao longo do século XIX e ainda sofrem. Para tanto, a análise foi feita através de uma revisão bibliográfica, a partir de um panorama dos contos e de seus autores, bem como das perspectivas críticas da psicanálise e do feminismo para tratar da literatura gótica. Em seguida, foram explorados aspectos da violência doméstica partindo do ponto principal, que são as mulheres presas nas paredes e, por fim, como a liberdade dessas mulheres é representada. As obras de Poe e Gilman não apenas refletem as ansiedades sociais de suas épocas, mas também permanecem relevantes na discussão contemporânea sobre a saúde mental, a violência de gênero e a luta pela liberdade. A literatura gótica, com suas camadas de significado e simbolismo, continua a ser um campo fértil para a exploração das complexidades da condição humana, especialmente no que diz respeito às experiências das mulheres.

Authors: Sai Kiong Wong , Gaspar Edwin , Ramalingam Vinodhkumar
Published: September 2024

Introduction: World Health Organization has defined physical activity as any physiological movement that needs energy expenditure and is produced by skeletal muscles. Due to the COVID-19 Pandemic, the government has imposed a lockdown to reduce the infection rate. Hence, many industries have moved to work from home platforms. Based on the studies, it is believed that these restrictions have caused a reduction in physical activity and an increase in sedentary behavior, which leads to musculoskeletal disorders. Objective: The purpose of this study is to determine the relationship between level of physical activity and subjective musculoskeletal pain in adults who work from home. Methodology: An online questionnaire distributed via Google Form links was sent to those who have been working from home (WFH) during and after COVID-19 in the past few years in Malaysia. The collected data was then analysed using the Pearson chi-square test using SPSS version 26 Mac OS. The Baecke Physical Activity Questionnaire and the Nordic Questionnaire were used to determine the participants' levels of physical activity and musculoskeletal pain. Result: This study found that many of the respondents experienced neck pain (n = 98, 54%), shoulder pain (n = 75, 41%), and low back pain (n = 94, 51.9%) during the past year. Further, the study findings revealed a significant relationship between neck (p = 0.014) and hip pain (p = 0.004) with the work index, wrist pain (p = 0.002) with the leisure index, and ankle joint pain (p = 0.024) with the work and sport index. Conclusion: According to the findings, WFH decrease the level of participants' physical activity, thus leading to an increase in musculoskeletal pain over the neck, shoulder, and low back.

Published: September 2024

Background: Strength testing is one of the primary assessment tools for physical strength examination, and an increase in strength is the aim of many rehabilitation programs. Manual muscle testing (MMT) is the most commonly used strength testing method in clinical settings. It is a subjective measurement technique whereby the tester applies resistance to a maximum voluntary muscle contraction. The reliability of the Fitmust hand-held dynamometer is not previously reported in the literature. Aims and Objectives: The study aims to test the reliability of the Fitmust hand-held dynamometer for lower limb muscles in comparison with the Jamar Hand Held dynamometer. Methods: Maximum voluntary isometric contraction of hip extension, knee extension, and plantar flexion is measured by two different therapists on different days using fit must hand-held dynamometer for 40 healthy participants of age category 18- 30 years. Result: Reliability was evaluated by computing Intra-class Correlation Coefficients (ICC), which analyse the consistency between two or more quantitative measures, and Cronbach's Alpha which measured agreement. Conclusion: Inter-tester reliability data obtained for Assessor 1 and 2 were consistent for knee measurements. However, data for the hip and ankle varied considerably. Assessors 1 and 2 demonstrated a 'moderate to excellent' association for knee Measurements.

Authors: Abagheri Meyari Afsar , Dokaneifard Farideh , Behbodi Masoumeh
Published: September 2024

Background and Objective: Most spouses in marital life use different communication patterns in interactions with family members, depending on their personality structure. The presence of dysfunctional communication patterns and underdeveloped personalities can cause destructive effects in relationships and lead to a lack of differentiation in children. This study aims to provide a model for predicting children's differentiation based on communication patterns and personality structure with the mediation of dysfunctional attitudes in parents attending counseling centers in Tehran. Methods and Materials: Considering the indices and objectives of the research, the study was descriptive and correlational. The statistical population of this research included all parents attending counseling centers in Tehran during 2021-2022. In this research, the sampling method was multi-stage random sampling, and the sample size was determined to be 350 people based on the Sample Power software. Data collection was carried out using the Differentiation Inventory by Skowron and Friedlander (1998), the Couples' Communication Patterns Questionnaire by Christensen and Sullaway (1991), the NEO Personality Inventory by McCrae and Costa (1985), and the Dysfunctional Attitudes Scale by Weissman and Beck (1978) on the selected sample. Data analysis was performed using SPSS and SmartPLS structural equation modeling. Findings: The findings of this study indicated that the proposed model for predicting children's differentiation based on communication patterns and personality structure with the mediation of dysfunctional attitudes in parents attending counseling centers in Tehran had a good fit. Examination of the results based on the direct path showed a significant relationship between the components of communication patterns, personality structure, and dysfunctional attitudes with children's differentiation. The results of the indirect path also showed a significant relationship between the components of communication patterns, personality structure, with the partial mediation role of dysfunctional attitudes and children's differentiation. Conclusion: The findings suggest that understanding the communication patterns and personality structure of each parent based on the mutual understanding of children's needs can predict the level of children's differentiation based on dysfunctional attitudes within the context of family relationships and interpersonal interactions.

Published: September 2024

Background and Objective: The present study aimed to compare the effectiveness of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Schema Therapy (ST) on emotional regulation and resilience of mothers with children diagnosed with Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). Methods and Materials: The research method was semi-experimental with a pre-test, post-test control group design, and follow-up. The statistical population consisted of all mothers with children aged 3 to 7 years with ADHD in Tehran in 2023. From this population, 45 participants were selected through convenience sampling and randomly assigned to two experimental groups (each with 15 participants) and one control group (15 participants). The CBT group received 10 sessions of 60 minutes each, while the ST group received 12 sessions of 60 minutes each, and the control group was placed on a waiting list. The instruments used in the present study included the Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (ERQ; Garnefski & Kraaij, 2006) and the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC; Connor & Davidson, 2003). Data analysis was conducted in two sections: descriptive and inferential (repeated measures analysis of variance). Findings: Results indicated a significant difference between the ST and CBT groups at the 0.05 level for the components of positive refocusing and positive reappraisal. Thus, considering the post-test means, the ST method had a more significant effect on changing the components of positive refocusing and positive reappraisal compared to the CBT group. Additionally, results showed a significant difference between ST and CBT at the 0.05 level for resilience, indicating that ST had a more significant effect on changing resilience compared to the CBT group. Furthermore, the present study demonstrated that CBT and ST could improve the study variables in mothers with children with ADHD during the follow-up stage. Conclusion: This study highlights the significant impact of Schema Therapy over Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in enhancing emotional regulation and resilience among mothers with children diagnosed with ADHD. The findings suggest that both therapeutic approaches are beneficial, but Schema Therapy offers a more substantial improvement in the measured variables, which sustains over time.

Background and Objective: The aim of the present study was to develop a responsible adolescent package. Methods and Materials: This research was qualitative in nature. In the first part, the analysis of responsibility texts was conducted using Hsieh and Shannon's (2005) content analysis method. In the second part, the responsible adolescent package was developed using the method of Yusefi and Golparvar (2023). The environment of this research included all texts related to responsibility in adolescence. The method of participant selection was purposive sampling, and the criterion for the number of texts was based on the principle of data saturation. Accordingly, ten texts were selected. The method of data collection involved in-depth and precise study of the texts. Findings: The results obtained from the five-step analysis method of Hsieh and Shannon (2005) indicated that this concept has four dimensions and eight sub-concepts, which were: 1) Foundations of responsibility (with sub-concepts of moral development and authoritative communication with parents), 2) Necessities of responsibility (with sub-concepts of identity and executive function), 3) Methods of achieving responsibility (with sub-concepts of empathy and self-control), and 4) Barriers to responsibility (with sub-concepts of painful past experiences and peer influence). In the package development section, the goal was to enhance adolescent responsibility through awareness and skill-building to manage irresponsibility using two strategies: enhancing executive function and increasing empathy. This was accomplished using the package development method of Yusefi and Golparvar (2023), and techniques related to the selected strategies were chosen from neuropsychological and reflective performance texts and aligned with the sub-goals of each session. Overall, the results of this study led to an eight-session educational package. Finally, the educational package was content-validated by experts using the agreement coefficient of the evaluators, and the results indicated content validity. Conclusion: Based on this result, it can be said that this educational package is suitable for enhancing adolescent responsibility.

Two treatment groups were treated in 10 sessions of 90 minutes each, and the control group did not receive any treatment. The data were analyzed by analysis of covariance and post-hoc Bonferroni test by SPSS version 26 Findings: The results showed that there was a significant difference between imago therapy package for affective breakdown and cognitive-behavioral therapy in anxiety and negative affect with the control group (p<0.01), but there was no significant difference between the effectiveness of two treatment groups (p>0.05). Conclusions: Considering the effectiveness of imago therapy for affective breakdown and cognitive-behavioral therapy on reducing anxiety and negative affect, it is suggested that these two treatments be used for girls who face affective breakdown in psychological treatment centers for adolescents.

Van Hiele's thinking level has an important role in understanding, interpreting, and determining the geometric thinking ability. However, the lack of technological products that can support Van Hiele's improvement in thinking level is a challenge in itself. One of the tools that can help prospective teacher students to reach Van Hiele's level of thinking is Augmented Reality technology. Therefore, this study aims to investigate Van Hiele's level of thinking through the intervention of Augmented Reality Digital Module Instruction (ADMI) using grounded theory design. The participants involved in this study were one lecturer and ten prospective teacher students who experienced difficulties in improving the level of Van Hiele geometric thinking. The data collected through observation, tests, and interviews are analyzed qualitatively through the stages of open coding, axial coding, and selective coding. These research found that students who had difficulties in carrying out the first level of Van Hiele could use ADMI to overcome these difficulties; students can construct knowledge about 3D geometry; the success of students in completing the geometry test involves reasoning. This study emphasize that ADMI contributes to geometry learning because it can make it easier for students to reach the lowest level of Van Hiele.
