Published: October 2023

The aim of this study is to make a descriptive content analysis of the articles related to mathematical problem solving from the theses in the National Thesis Centre and the journals of the faculties of education published in Tr-dizin and to determine the general trend. A total of 159 theses were included in the study. The studies were examined within the framework of the "Study Review Form on Mathematical Problem Solving Published in National Thesis Centre and Tr-dizin" prepared within the scope of the research. The related studies were analysed within the categories determined within the framework of sub-problems. Frequency and percentage distributions of the categories were calculated with the help of Excel programme and the data obtained were presented in detail with the help of tables. According to the results of the study, it was concluded that studies on mathematical problem solving were mostly conducted with 7th grade students, quantitative research methods were selected, quantitative analyses were performed and questionnaires and scales were preferred as data collection tools. It is thought that it will be useful in terms of seeing the strengths and deficiencies of the studies carried out in this field and it can be a guide for future studies in terms of seeing the trend of the studies from a holistic perspective.

Objetivou-se com este trabalho avaliar a estrutura associada aos padrões de distribuição espacial de jovens regenerantes de catingueira (Cenostigma pyramidale (Tul.) E. Gagnon & G.P. Lewis) presentes em sistema ciliar no Cariri Ocidental paraibano. O trabalho foi realizado na mata ciliar do riacho da Umburana (7°45’15.3’’ S e 36°58’01.6’’ W; 571 m de altitude), município de Sumé-PB. Foram implantadas 51 parcelas de 1,0 X 1,0 m para análise de todos os indivíduos jovens lenhosos com altura ≥ 0,05 m e DNS < 3 cm. Foram analisados os parâmetros de frequência, densidade e classes de altura e diâmetro dos jovens regenerantes. Foram amostradas 30 espécies distribuídas em 23 gêneros e 12 famílias botânicas, além de quatro espécies indeterminadas. A população de C. pyramidale destacou-se na comunidade do riacho da Umburana com 28 indivíduos e frequência absoluta de 45,10%. Relacionado às classes de altura e diâmetro, a maior representação ocorreu na menor classe de ambos os parâmetros. A espécie estudada apresentou na sua distribuição diamétrica o modelo J reverso, com 60,71% de indivíduos na primeira classe (0,01 a 0,50 cm). Portanto, os dados gerados se revestem como importantes informações sobre os aspectos estruturais da população estudada, subsidiando assim a sua conservação nos sistemas naturais no Semiárido brasileiro.

This study investigates the effects of Aspergillus meal prebiotic on a spectrum of parameters, including productive performance, bone mineralization, and intestinal integrity, in broiler chickens. Day-of-hatch Cobb 500 by-product male chicks (320 total) were randomly assigned to two experimental groups (G1 and G2) in floor pens (150×300 cm), each pen containing separate feeders and watering systems (8 replicates per treatment, 20 birds/pen). Chickens kept in G1 (control) were fed a basal diet, while those of G2 (treated) were fed a basal diet supplemented with 0.2% PRI-A-FERM. Performance parameters, including body weight (BW), body weight gain (BWG), feed intake (FI), and feed conversion ratio (FCR), were evaluated weekly from the 7th day to the end of the trial at 42 d. Fluorescein isothiocyanate-dextran (FITC-d) was administered via oral gavage to 3 chickens/replicate (n = 24), and blood was collected on 21d and on 42d to determine serum concentration of FITC-d as a biomarker to evaluate intestinal permeability and peptide YY as an indirect biomarker to evaluate short chain fatty acids. Chickens that received the \textit{Aspergillus} meal prebiotic showed a significant increase in BW, BWG, and FI on days 14, 21, 28, 35, and 42 (P<0.05) and a significant reduction in FCR on days 28, 35, and 42 of evaluation compared to control. Moreover, chickens that were supplemented with the Aspergillus meal prebiotic showed a significant reduction in serum concentrations of FITC-d on both days of evaluation, as well as a significant increase in serum concentration of peptide YY. Additionally, treated animals significantly increased bone strength, total bone ash, and calcium and phosphorous content at both evaluation times compared to the control. In summary, the results of this study suggest that Aspergillus meal prebiotic supplementation can positively influence productive parameters, bone mineralization, and intestinal integrity in broiler chickens. The observed improvements underscore the importance of gut health in overall poultry performance. The findings contribute to the growing body of knowledge on the benefits of prebiotics (0.2%, PRI-A-FERM) in animal nutrition and highlight the potential for their practical application in enhancing poultry production systems. Further research is warranted to elucidate the underlying mechanisms and optimize prebiotic utilization for improved broiler health and productivity

Published: October 2023

Abstract. Sea spray aerosol contains ice-nucleating particles (INPs), which affect the formation and properties of clouds. Here, we show that aerosols emitted from fast-growing marine phytoplankton produce effective immersion INPs, which nucleate at temperatures significantly warmer than the atmospheric homogeneous freezing (−38.0 ∘C) of pure water. Aerosol sampled over phytoplankton cultures grown in a Marine Aerosol Reference Tank (MART) induced nucleation and freezing at temperatures as high as −15.0 ∘C during exponential phytoplankton growth. This was observed in monospecific cultures representative of two major groups of phytoplankton, namely a cyanobacterium (Synechococcus elongatus) and a diatom (Thalassiosira weissflogii). Ice nucleation occurred at colder temperatures (−28.5 ∘C and below), which were not different from the freezing temperatures of procedural blanks, when the cultures were in the stationary or death phases of growth. Ice nucleation at warmer temperatures was associated with relatively high values of the maximum quantum yield of photosystem II (ΦPSII), an indicator of the physiological status of phytoplankton. High values of ΦPSII indicate the presence of cells with efficient photochemistry and greater potential for photosynthesis. For comparison, field measurements in the North Atlantic Ocean showed that high net growth rates of natural phytoplankton assemblages were associated with marine aerosol that acted as effective immersion INPs at relatively warm temperatures. Data were collected over 4 d at a sampling station maintained in the same water mass as the water column stabilized after deep mixing by a storm. Phytoplankton biomass and net phytoplankton growth rate (0.56 d−1) were greatest over the 24 h preceding the warmest mean ice nucleation temperature (−25.5 ∘C). Collectively, our laboratory and field observations indicate that phytoplankton physiological status is a useful predictor of effective INPs and more reliable than biomass or taxonomic affiliation. Ocean regions associated with fast phytoplankton growth, such as the North Atlantic during the annual spring bloom, may be significant sources of atmospheric INPs.
Global patterns and drivers of phosphorus fractions in natural soils

Published: October 2023

Abstract. Most phosphorus (P) in soils is unavailable for direct biological uptake, as it is locked within primary or secondary mineral particles, adsorbed to mineral surfaces, or immobilized inside of organic material. Deciphering the composition of different P forms in soil is critical for understanding P bioavailability and its underlying dynamics. However, widely used global estimates of different soil P forms are based on a dataset containing few measurements in which many regions or soil types are unrepresented. This poses a major source of uncertainty in assessments that rely on these estimates to quantify soil P constraints on biological activity controlling global food production and terrestrial carbon balance. To address this issue, we consolidated a database of six major soil P “forms” containing 1857 entries from globally distributed (semi-)natural soils and 11 related environmental variables. These six different forms of P (labile inorganic P (Pi), labile organic P (Po), moderately labile Pi, moderately labile Po, primary mineral P, and occluded P) were measured using a sequential P fractionation method. As they do not represent precise forms of specific discrete P compounds in the soil but rather resemble operational pools, we will now refer to them as P pools. In order to quantify the relative importance of 11 soil-forming variables in predicting soil P pool concentrations and then make further predictions at the global scale, we trained random forest regression models for each of the P pools and captured observed variation with R2 higher than 60 %. We identified total soil P concentration as the most important predictor of all soil P pool concentrations, except for primary mineral P concentration, which is primarily controlled by soil pH and only secondarily by total soil P concentration. When expressed in relative values (proportion of total P),
the model showed that soil pH is generally the most important predictor for
proportions of all soil P pools, alongside the prominent influences of soil
organic carbon, total P concentration, soil depth, and biome. These results
suggest that, while concentration values of P pools logically strongly depend on soil total P concentration, the relative values of the different
pools are modulated by other soil properties and the environmental context.
Using the trained random forest models, we predicted soil P pools'
distributions in natural systems at a resolution of 0.5∘×0.5∘. Our global maps of different P pools in soils as well as the pools' underlying drivers can inform assessments of the role of natural P availability for ecosystem productivity, climate change mitigation, and the functioning of the Earth system.
Disentangling the effects of vegetation and water on the satellite observations of soil organic carbon stocks in western European topsoils
Authors: Lin Lixin , Liu Xixi , Sun Yuan
Published: October 2023

Abstract. The performance of models based on satellite observations of soil organic carbon (SOC) stock in European soils is seriously limited by the complexity of natural land surfaces. Therefore, disentangling the SOC stock from other natural land surfaces including vegetation and water bodies has become a rather difficult but necessary task. This study proposed a novel and promising approach intended to resolve this frustrating problem. Based on a series of spectral narrowing, unchanging, and enlarging processes, 23,914,845 sets of SOC models were developed both for vegetation fuzzy disentangling and water fuzzy disentangling. The optimal model was obtained through comparison and was determined as the model that ultimately performed obviously better than the unfuzzified model. This model simulated the per-unit and total SOC stocks in western European topsoils as 99.742 t C ha−1 and 9.373 Pg, respectively. In comparison with the results of previous studies, the gaps in the simulated per-unit SOC stocks across the western European countries were considerably narrower (83.673–104.334 t C ha−1). The outstanding model performance and stable simulated per-unit values are the result of disentangling of the vegetation and water cover. This study proposed a valuable reference solution for disentangling the SOC stock from complex natural land cover.

Published: October 2023

Abstract. Instruments measuring aerosol light absorption, such as the Aethalometer and the Multi-Wavelength Absorbance Analyzer (MWAA), have been extensively used to characterize optical absorption of atmospheric particulate matter. Data retrieved with such instruments can be analysed with mathematical models to apportion different aerosol sources (Aethalometer model) and components (MWAA model). In this work we present an upgrade to the MWAA optical apportionment model. In addition to the apportionment of the absorption coefficient babs in its components (Black Carbon and Brown Carbon) and sources (Fossil Fuel and Wood Burning), the extended model allows the retrieval of the Absorption Ångström Exponent of each component and source, thereby avoiding initial assumptions regarding these parameters. We also present a new open-source software toolkit, the MWAA Model Toolkit, written in both Python and R, that performs the entire apportionment procedure.
Molecular-level study on the role of methanesulfonic acid in iodine oxoacids nucleation
Authors: Li Jing , Wu Nan , Ning An , Zhang Xiuhui
Published: October 2023

Abstract. Iodic acid (HIO3) and iodous acid (HIO2) have been identified to nucleate effectively by the Cosmics Leaving OUtdoor Droplets (CLOUD) experiment at CERN (He et al., 2021, Science), yet it may be hard to explain all HIO3-induced nucleation. Given the complexity of marine atmosphere, other precursors may be involved. Methanesulfonic acid (MSA), as a widespread precursor over oceans, has been proven to play a vital role in facilitating nucleation. However, its kinetic impacts on synergistic nucleation of iodine oxoacids remain unclear. Hence, we investigated the MSA-involved HIO3-HIO2 nucleation process at the molecular level using density functional theory (DFT) and Atmospheric Clusters Dynamic Code (ACDC). The results show that MSA can form stable molecular clusters with HIO3 and HIO2 jointly via hydrogen and halogen bonds, as well as electrostatic attraction after proton transfer to HIO2. Thermodynamically, the MSA-involved clustering can occur nearly without free-energy barrier, following HIO2-MSA binary and HIO3-HIO2-MSA ternary pathway. Furthermore, adding MSA significantly enhance the rate of HIO3-HIO2-based cluster formation, even up to 104-fold at cold marine regions with rich MSA and scarce iodine, such as polar Ny-Ålesund and Marambio. Thus, the proposed more efficient HIO3-HIO2-MSA nucleation mechanism may provide theoretical evidence for explaining the frequent and intensive burst of marine iodine particles.
Spring tropical cyclones modulate near-surface isotopic compositions of atmospheric water vapour at Kathmandu, Nepal

Published: October 2023

Abstract. The Arabian Sea (AS) and the Bay of Bengal (BoB) are the major part of the Indian Ocean where cyclonic activities prevail each year, resulting in extreme precipitation events, particularly during the pre-monsoon season. Despite the significance of cyclones in Nepal, no studies have investigated their impact on the isotopic composition of atmospheric water vapour (δ18Ov, δDv, and d-excessv). Here, we present the results of continuous measurements of the isotopic composition of atmospheric water vapour at Kathmandu from 7 May to 7 June 2021 during two pre-monsoon cyclone events, namely cyclone Tauktae formed over the Arabian Sea, and cyclone Yaas formed over the Bay of Bengal. We observed a significant depletion of δ18Ov and δDv during both cyclone events compared to before and after the cyclone events which was attributed to changes in moisture sources (local vs. marine) as inferred from backward moisture trajectories. The outgoing longwave radiation (OLR) and regional precipitation during cyclone events together with the observed correlation between vertical velocity and δ18Ov showed high moisture convergence and heavy convection at and around the measurement site which caused unusually depleted δ18Ov during that period. Moisture convergence and convection were stronger during cyclone Yaas which resulted in higher (lower) d-excessv (δ18Ov), compared to Tauktae, possibly due to strong downdrafts during the cyclone-related rain events which can transport vapour with higher (lower) d-excessv (δ18Ov) toward the surface. Our study reveals that tropical cyclones that originated from the BoB and the AS modulate isotopic signals of near-surface atmospheric water vapour considerably in Nepal. Hence caution should be made while interpreting the isotopic variability during the non-monsoon season and the effect of cyclones on the isotopic composition of precipitation and atmospheric water vapour. Our results shed light on key processes governing the isotopic composition of atmospheric water vapour at Kathmandu and may have implications for the paleoclimate reconstruction of tropical cyclone activity.

Abstract. The Caribbean country of Haiti is highly exposed to hydroclimatic hazards. However, there is no usable database that is easily accessible to the scientific community for this area. To fill this gap, hydroclimatic data were collected to create the first historical database in Haiti. This database, called "Simbi" (guardian of rivers, freshwater, and rain in Haitian mythology), includes 156 monthly rainfall series over the period 1905–2005, 59 daily rainfall series over the period 1920–1940, 70 daily streamflow series, and 23 monthly temperature series, not necessarily continuous, over the period 1920–1940. It also provides simulated streamflow series over the period 1920–1940 using the GR2M and GR4J rainfall–runoff models for 24 catchments and 48 attributes covering a wide range of topographic, climatic, geological, land use, hydrogeological, and hydrological signature indices. The database will be regularly updated to include additional historical data that will be digitized in the future. It will thus contribute toward better knowledge of the hydrology of Haitian catchments and will enable the implementation of various hydrological calculations useful for designing structures or flow forecasting. Simbi is an open access database and is available for download at: https://doi.org/10.23708/02POK6 (Bathelemy et al., 2023).

Published: October 2023

INTRODUCTION
The safety of patients and property in healthcare settings is directly influenced by security response time, yet this critical aspect is often overlooked. In this article, we aim to address this gap by presenting a proposed key performance indicator (KPI) for security response times.
METHODS
To develop the proposed KPI, we followed a systematic approach. First, we defined the necessary KPI. We then collected baseline response time data and met with stakeholders to gather their insights. Subsequently, we analysed the response time data from before and after implementation of the proposed KPI, and introduced a levelling method for responses that takes into account the intensity and risk level of each situation.
RESULTS
The weekly average baseline response time for situations requiring security department intervention was found to be 8 minutes and 1 second. One year after implementing the levelling method, the data comparison revealed a substantial decrease in response times. Specifically, responses to Level 1 incidents averaged 3 minutes and 57 seconds; Level 2 incidents averaged 5 minutes and 47 seconds; and Level 3 incidents averaged 3 minutes and 59 seconds.
CONCLUSION
The application and testing of this new KPI over the course of one year demonstrated a remarkable impact on security response time. Given the lack of a published benchmark for such response, we propose a benchmark of 5 minutes.

Authors: Devi Usha , Jayesh Gohel
Published: October 2023

Oral cancer includes cancers of the lip, other parts of the mouth and the oropharynx and combined rank as the 13th most common cancer worldwide. In India, it is the third most common cancer overall but the most common cancer among males, and also ranks third among the various cancer types contributing to mortality in the country. While oral health literacy is defined as the degree to which individuals have the capacity to obtain process and understand basic oral health information and service needed to make appropriate health decision. It has been suggested that lower patient health literacy is a barrier to effective medical diagnosis and treatment. The present pre experimental one group pre-test and post-test design research study was conducted among nursing students to evaluate the effectiveness of structured teaching programme regarding oral cancer. The researcher selected 60 samples based on purposive sampling technique. The results shown that the level of knowledge was improved after ST, which indicates the STP was effective. The resercher concluded that, the teaching aids will be helpful in improving knowledge among students as well as public. The resercher recommended that, the community education programe and personal behaviour change education is required for cancer free nation.
The Persian Adaptation of Chandayan: Understanding Intercultural Communication in Medieval India
Authors: Savita Savita
Published: October 2023

Chandayan was composed in late fourteenth century by Daud. The text was unique among its contemporaries from the perspective of language, script, and content. It was the first text of Awadhi (Hindwi). The present paper is an attempt to study the reasons behind the composition of such a syncretic text. Who were the people for whom it was composed? Why did it was patronized by the wazir of Delhi Sultan, Khan- i Jahan second? After a brief discussion on the above mentioned questions, the paper will be focused on the Persian adaptation of the story of Chandayan during the seventeenth century. Hamid Kalanauri adapted this story into Persian during the reign of Emperor Jahangir and named it Ismatnama. The study would attempt to bring to light the picture that contemporary sources paint. How did the story got circulated and transmitted to various circles? It would try to seek answers to the following questions. Why did Hamid Kalanauri choose this story? What was the medium of transmission? What was the reason behind its Persian adaptation and how did the story was reimagined for a new audience? The adaptation dismantled the barrier of language and open the text to a wider world. The study would be based on primary evidence, substantiated by secondary literature where required. The texts used for the study are Persian court chronicles, tazkira literature and vernacular sources.

Modeling Challenges and Opportunities for Aircraft with High-Aspect-Ratio Wings (HARW)

We highlight the differences that come in the requirements for the modeling of aircraft with HARW. We will also discuss possible solutions for some of the outputs of interests that makes this class of aircraft different than the more traditional ones.

Nonlinear Aeroelastic Analyses and Structural Optimization in Aircraft Preliminary Design

The presentation covers different topics related to nonlinear aeroelastic analysis in aircraft preliminary design. Methods for the calculation of steady (maneuver) and unsteady (gust) loads including geometrical nonlinearities - which are required for the structural optimization - are discussed. Furthermore, one of our goals is to consider aeroelastic and structural nonlinearities as early in the aircraft (preliminary) design and structural optimization process as possible.

Impact of Model Complexity on Aeroelastic Predictions for Very Flexible Wings

This presentation covers a comprehensive study on the impact of model complexity on aeroelastic predictions for wings with levels of flexibility relevant to high-aspect-ratio-wing aircraft. Metrics of interest include natural frequencies, static structural and aeroelastic response, and instability onsets. The presentation ends with an outlook on areas where additional investigations are necessary to advance our understanding of how to appropriately model, analyze, and simulate very flexible wings to support the development of future high-aspect-ratio-wing aircraft.

O objetivo deste estudo foi de verificar a aceitabilidade sensorial de patês de frango elaborados com diferentes teores de cloreto de sódio (NaCl), cloreto de potássio (KCl) e glutamato monossódico (GM) e avaliar a composição físico-química do produto. Na Etapa 1, avaliaram-se cinco formulações de patê, com adição de NaCl e KCl (de 0 a 1 %). Na Etapa 2, foram avaliadas as mesmas formulações com adição de GM (0,2 %). Na Etapa 1, não houve diferença significativa para os atributos aparência, aroma, textura e cor. Contudo, para as características sabor, aceitação global e intenção de compra a amostra contendo KCl (1 %) recebeu menores notas do que aquela sem adição de KCl. Na Etapa 2, os produtos apresentaram aumento na aceitabilidade após adição de GM. Foi possível reduzir 75 % de sódio nos patês de frango (NaCl - 0,25 % e KCl - 0,75 %), e obter amostra com aceitação sensorial semelhante ao produto padrão e maior possibilidade de adição de KCl, principalmente em conjunto com o GM.

Las Dimensiones Internacionales del Golpe de Estado Chileno
Authors: Angell Alan
Published: October 2023

El artículo sostiene que el golpe de Estado chileno de 1973 tuvo gran impacto en la política de muchos países. Por ejemplo, los partidos europeos de izquierda modificaron sus estrategias en respuesta a lo que veían eran las lecciones de Chile. Del mismo modo, los exiliados chilenos organizaron movimientos de resistencia en muchos países, y ellos también se vieron influidos por la política de sus países de acogida. Como consecuencia de lo anterior es que la oposición chilena durante diez años por lo menos dependía de apoyo y financiamiento internacional.
Familias tradicionales y élites empresarias en Argentina: individuación y solidaridad en la construcción y sostén de las posiciones de privilegio
Authors: Luci Florencia , Gessaghi Victoria
Published: October 2023

Este artículo tiene por objeto comprender cómo se producen, mantienen y justifican las posiciones de privilegio en la Argentina. A partir de dos investigaciones que abordaron el mundo empresario y “la clase alta” de dicho país, sostiene que en una configuración donde el imaginario igualitario es central y donde no hay canales formales de acceso a las posiciones de élite, el trabajo activo de construcción, mantenimiento y justificación del lugar se vuelve ineludible. El artículo muestra que ese proceso involucra la articulación de dos lógicas: la exigencia de una individuación meritocrática y la producción de formas de solidaridad. Describe los sentidos heterogéneos que ambas asumen y los modos de resolver sus tensiones y contradicciones en el proceso de disputar y consolidar una posición de élite.
Los monjes fuera del monasterio: CIEPLAN y su producción intelectual durante cuatro décadas de política chilena

Published: October 2023

Este artículo estudia la Corporación de Estudios para Latinoamérica (CIEPLAN) como un caso de articulación entre élite intelectual y política. Nacido en 1976 y todavía activo, el centro de estudios es uno de los más exitosos de la política chilena contemporánea, tanto desde la perspectiva de la influencia en políticas como de colocación de personal en puestos gubernamentales claves. A partir de datos sobre la producción del organismo y sobre las trayectorias de los autores, se explora la relación entre las condiciones políticas del momento y la producción intelectual de los afiliados al centro. Se demuestra que las ideas y los formatos ocupados para difundir las ideas evolucionan con los cambios de régimen y la coyuntura política. Se expone que el período de “monje” de CIEPLAN, siguiendo la clásica frase de Silva (1991), no siguió más allá de la dictadura, dando paso a technopols, entre los cuales la estrategia política le gana a la ambición académica inicial.
Mujeres en gabinetes ministeriales. Un estudio de Ecuador desde el retorno a la democracia (1979-2015)
Authors: Sotomayor Valarezo Patricia , Hernández Sergio Huertas
Published: October 2023

Este artículo analiza la representación de mujeres en gabinetes ministeriales en Ecuador desde 1979 hasta 2015. En un primer momento presentamos una descripción de la evolución de dicha representación, lo que da cuenta de las fluctuaciones que ha tenido el fenómeno observado desde que Ecuador retornó a la democracia en 1979. Luego, utilizando una regresión lineal múltiple con mínimos cuadrados ordinarios y errores robustos constatamos que una mayor presencia de mujeres en la población económicamente activa, así como en distintas arenas políticas influyen en mayor medida para que existan más mujeres en gabinetes ministeriales. Al contrario, los asientos del presidente en la legislatura y la ideología del partido del ejecutivo son variables poco significantes en el abordaje del fenómeno estudiado.

Published: October 2023

Children’s social care (CSC) involvement during pregnancy and the first two years of a child’s life – the period known as the ‘1001 critical days’ – can have a significant impact on the mental health and wellbeing of both mothers and infants. By putting bonding and attachment between mothers and their babies at risk, this can pose long-term implications for children’s emotional and psychological development.

Drawing on findings from Birth Companions’ recent projects with women with lived experience of CSC involvement, this article offers insight into the mental health impacts of assessment and/or care proceedings during the first 1001 days.

The article also outlines key principles for all those working with women in these circumstances, published in the form of theBirth Companions Birth Charter for women with involvement from children’s social care(2023c). This aims to embed improved practice across all systems and services working with women with CSC involvement.

Key recommendations focus on the significance of trauma-informed care for women, and the centralisation of pregnancy and early motherhood in multi-agency practice. Birth Companions is calling for this to be driven forward in the form of a joint national health and social care pathway for pregnant women and mothers of infants who are subject to pre-birth or parenting assessment, or child protection proceedings, to guide the care and support they receive up to their child’s second birthday.

Published: October 2023

The aim of this project was to co-produce a new Patient Reported Experience Measure (PREM) with young people and parent/carers for a new Children and Young People’s Mental Health (CYPMH) inpatient unit, to collect meaningful and actionable feedback that will support a trauma-informed approach in the service. Young people and parents/carers using the service reported that existing PREMs, such as the Experience of Service Questionnaire (CHI-ESQ) and CAMHS Satisfaction Scale (CAMHSSS-Unit) were unsuitable. Focus groups were held with young people and their parents/carers to develop a new PREM specifically for CYPMH inpatient services. Young people and parents/carers reviewed the existing questionnaires and discussed which aspects of inpatient care they wanted to provide feedback about following their admission. Key themes from the focus groups included the importance of a variety of types of response scales and ensuring the questions captured a range of experiences. Two co-produced, distinct versions of the PREM for young people and parents/carers were constructed using the focus group feedback and were named the Re-QUEST (The Red Kite Questionnaire for Understanding Experiences of Services Together). Both versions of the Re-QUEST were then reviewed by a wider group of young people and parents/carers for acceptability and were unanimously approved. The Re-QUEST was piloted with young people and their parents on their discharge from the service.

The influence and importance of a family on children and young people’s mental health and wellbeing has been well documented (Kana’Iaupuni et al., 2005). Therefore, when children and young people encounter mental health services it is vital that a family focused perspective is prioritised (Gross & Goldin, 2008). However, efforts to consider and explore family dynamics in the context of children’s lives have often been blaming and overly expert (Dallos, 2019). There have been some attempts to move away from individualistic understandings of children’s distress to more family functional formulations (Dallos, et al., 2020). Nonetheless, there remains very little literature and evidence around involving families in co-producing psychological formulations in a non-blaming, transparent and empowering way, but in particular this scarcity is evident in inpatient child and adolescent mental health services (CAMHS). The present paper will outline a co-produced family focused formulation called ‘Understanding Our Family’ developed for inpatient CAMHS settings by the authors. ‘Understanding Our Family’ is informed by the Power Threat Meaning Framework (Johnstone, et al., 2018) to provide an alternative understanding to what brings families into contact with inpatient settings and to offer a de-stigmatising and empowering narrative to families subject to multiple stressors and complex systems. The present article discusses and critically interrogates the challenges and opportunities of developing, implementing, and embedding this approach within a CAMHS inpatient setting in the North of England.

The Psychologically Informed Partnership Approach (PIPA) is a partnership between North Yorkshire Council (NYC) and Tees, Esk and Wear Valleys NHS Foundation Trust (TEWV). PIPA aims to provide a flexible, psychological and trauma-informed service to meet a wide range of needs of vulnerable children across Children and Families Services (C&FS) within North Yorkshire.

PIPA consists of Clinical and Forensic Psychologists, and Advanced Practitioners working across NYC. The service considers the individual needs, complexities and experiences of children, young people, family members and practitioners, whilst also holding in mind broader systemic and organisational perspectives. This paper outlines how PIPA applies a range of models and frameworks to support innovative, non-blaming approaches with children, young people and their families, and the outcome of this approach thus far.

A variety of measures are used to evaluate how PIPA involvement has influenced a range of outcomes for children, young people and families, as seen in theOutcomes and Feedback section. Two case studies are also included to demonstrate how this approach works in practise.

The paper concludes with reflections on our learning and recommendations for similar practices to be embedded across other children and families’ services in the country.

This study aimed to assess the impact stalking has on the physical and psychological wellbeing of survivors and their experiences of accessing of health services. To achieve this a self-assessment questionnaire was developed, circulated through social media channels and promoted on the websites of support services for people who experience stalking. There were 105 respondents to a survey, all who self-defined as being victims of stalking. Results indicated that prior to stalking events, 86% of participants reported no health issues. However, when reviewing health issues after having been stalked, 74% did report health problems. We also found that 23% of survivors experienced some physical injury as a result of being stalked. Results also indicated that while only 30% of participants reported ongoing psychological or mental health problems before stalking, this rose to 95% experiencing such difficulties following stalking events. Healthcare services were accessed due to stalking by 60% of participants and a further 8% of participants accessed the service due to domestic violence. Given the serious impact stalking can have, it is essential that victims have access to appropriate health care services. Conclusions centre around the appropriate training of Health care professionals (HCPs) to recognise when a patient might be a victim of stalking and how to provide appropriate support. Healthcare services could be tailored to the unique needs of stalking victims and be available in multiple locations, including hospitals, primary care settings, and online. Findings also indicate that HCPs also need to understand the different forms of stalking and how to respond appropriately. Additionally, it is important to provide support in terms of safety planning, providing information about legal options, and providing referrals to other appropriate services. The results are discussed in context to the current literature.

2017 yılında 7036 sayılı İş Mahkemeleri Kanununun yürürlüğe girmesiyle birlikte, 1.1.2018 tarihinden itibaren iş hukukunda dava şartı olan arabuluculuk uygulaması başlamış olup, düzenlemenin kapsamı dışında bırakılanlar hariç olmak üzere işçi ve işveren alacakları, tazminatları ve işe iade talebiyle açılan davalarda arabulucuya başvurulması zorunlu hale getirilmiştir. Böylelikle iş hukukundaki uyuşmazlıkların büyük bir bölümü dava şartı olan arabuluculuğun kapsamına dahil edilmiştir. 2021 yılında kamuoyuna açıklanan İnsan Hakları Eylem Planı ile de bir başka uyuşmazlık çözüm yöntemi olan hakem-bilirkişilik uygulamasının hayata geçirileceği duyurulmuştur. Bu doğrultuda bazı uyuşmazlıklarda aynı anda, dava şartı olan arabuluculuk ile hakem-bilirkişiliğin birlikte uygulanması söz konusu olabilecektir. Bu durum ise beraberinde çeşitli uygulama sorunlarını getirebilecektir. Bu sebeple çalışmamızda iş hukukunda dava şartı olan arabuluculuk ile hakem-bilirkişilik kavramları incelenerek, hakem-bilirkişi sözleşmesinin arabuluculuğa başvuru sürecine etkisi, arabuluculuk sürecinde hakem-bilirkişi raporunun bağlayıcılığı, arabuluculuk sürecinde görüşülen hakem-bilirkişi raporunun mahkeme aşamasında kullanımı gibi bazı önemli konuların aydınlatılması hedeflenmiştir.
KONUTUN DEPREM NEDENİYLE ZARAR GÖRMESİNİN KİRA SÖZLEŞMESİNE ETKİSİ

Ülkemizde 6 Şubat 2023 tarihinde meydana gelen deprem birçok konuda yıkıcı sonuçlara yol açmıştır. Bu kapsamda depremin zarar gören konutlarda mevcut kira sözleşmelerine etkisi ayrıca incelenmelidir. Konutun deprem nedeniyle zarar görmesi durumunda, sonraki kusursuz ifa imkansızlığı söz konusu olabilir. Konutta meydana gelen hasar, sonraki kusursuz ifa imkansızlığının sonuçlarına sözleşmenin hangi tarafının katlanacağı meselesini ortaya çıkarmaktadır. Dolayısıyla konutun deprem nedeniyle zarar görmesi durumunda kira sözleşmesinin sona erip ermeyeceği; sözleşme sona ermemişse, tarafların hak ve yükümlülüklerinin belirlenmesi önem arz etmektedir. Konutun yıkılması, ağır hasar alarak kullanılamaz hale gelmesi durumlarında sözleşme konusu ortadan kalktığı için kira sözleşmesinin sona erdiği kabul edilir. Bunun sonucu olarak kiraya veren ve kiracının borçları sona erer. Konuttaki hasarın az olmasına rağmen kiracının yaşanan deprem nedeniyle konutta kalamaması ihtimalinde, önemli sebebe dayalı olağanüstü fesih yoluyla sözleşme sona erdirilebilir. Deprem nedeniyle konutta meydana gelen sonraki ayıpların ise kiraya veren tarafından giderilmesi gerekir. Bu hususta da kiracının ayıbı bildirme ve ayıpların giderilmesi için yapılan çalışmalara katlanma yükümlülüğü vardır.
