FINANCIAL DATA SECURITY IN CLOUD COMPUTING
Authors: Kunnathuvalappil Hariharan Naveen
Published: September 2021

Many enterprises have achieved a novel, quick, and low-costtechnology to address the concerns of data storage and availabilityfor customers, which is referred to as Cloud Computing. More andmore financial service companies and organizations have shifted theiroffline services to cloud platforms to provide customers with moreconvenient and accurate services. Working with a cloud servicesprovider offers a wide variety of benefits for banks and financialinstitutions. This includes greater flexibility and scalability, lowercosts, and improved organizational efficiency. However, at themoment, they pose a certain level of data security risk to financialorganizations. For financial institutions, keeping data secure is of theutmost importance. Financial information is extremely sensitive,making it valuable and especially vulnerable. The cloud serviceproviders are making significant efforts to develop the cloud industryin order to maintain optimal security. After discussing cloudcomputing in the financial sector, this research outlined six majorsecurity concerns that financial institutions face in cloud computing.They are Information security Business securitySystem Security HostSecurity Data Security Network Security. We also discussed themajor strategies by cloud computing providers to tackle theseissues.Once the security challenges can be resolved properly, cloudcomputing will be further promoted in the finance sector. Financialinstitutions may leverage cloud computing in the future to developnovel business models and provide customers with an entirely newexperience with financial services.
Quantum computation of Groebner basis
Authors: Kikuchi Ichio , Kikuchi Akihito
Published: September 2021

In this essay, we examine the feasibility of quantum computation of Gr\"obner basis which is a fundamental tool of algebraic geometry. The classical method for computing Gr\"obner basis is based on Buchberger's algorithm, and our question is how to adopt quantum algorithm there. A Quantum algorithm for finding the maximum is usable for detecting head terms of polynomials, which are required for the computation of S-polynomials. The reduction of S-polynomials with respect to a Gr\"obner basis could be done by the quantum version of Gauss-Jordan elimination of matrices which represents polynomials. However, the frequent occurrence of zero-reductions of polynomials is an obstacle to the effective application of quantum algorithms. This is because zero-reductions of polynomials occur in non-full-rank matrices, for which quantum linear systems algorithms (through the inversion of matrices) are inadequate, as ever-known quantum linear solvers (such as Harrow-Hassidim-Lloyd) require the clandestine computations of the inverses of eigenvalues. Such algorithms should be used in limited situations with the guarantee that the matrices could be inverted. For example, the transformation from the non-reduced Gr\"obner basis to the reduced one is of this sort, and the quantum algorithms surely achieve the partial speedup of the computations.

Excessive anxiety during childbirth can cause changes in bodily functions. The impact is that the labor process takes longer, causing complications to both mother and baby. One of the non-pharmacological ways that can be done so that the labor process is gone naturally is by providing complementary massage therapy and frangipani aromatherapy. This research aims to determine the effect of back massage using frangipani aromatherapy oil in the first stage of labor on the duration of childbirth. The type of this research is Quasi-Experimental Design, posttest control group design. The sample is 80 people consisting of the control group of 40 people and the treatment group of 40 people. The sampling technique used is Consecutive Nonprobability Sampling. The data were recorded in the observation sheet. Also. The data analysis was done through univariate and bivariate "unpaired t-test". The results showed that the average duration of childbirth in the control group was 31.25 minutes, while the treatment group was 23.75 minutes. There is an effect of massage using frangipani aromatherapy oil in the first stage of labor on the duration of childbirth at a significance level of 0.01 (p <0.05). In conclusion, there is the effect of massage using frangipani aromatherapy oil in the first stage of labor on the duration of childbirth. It is hoped that midwives will use complementary frangipani aromatherapy massage in providing midwifery care during the first stage of normal labor.

Shevlin et al. (2021) recently demonstrated heterogeneity in mental health and psychological responses to the COVID-19 pandemic over time from a nationally representative sample of UK adults (March–July 2020). Five subpopulations representing either stability, deterioration or improvement in both anxiety-depression and COVID-19 PTSD were identified. The majority of the sample were characterised by low levels of anxiety-depression (56.6%) and COVID-19 traumatic stress (68.3%) during this early phase of the pandemic but some showed deterioration and some showed mental health benefits. Here we extend these findings using two additional survey waves from the C19PRC Study, thereby modelling mental health trajectories for the UK population within the entire first year of the pandemic.
Drivers of plate waste: A mini theory of action based on staff observations
Authors: Dolnicar Sara , Juvan Emil
Published: September 2021

Restaurants waste one fifth of the food they buy; much is left behind on people's plates (Engström & Carlsson-Kanyama, 2004). Plate waste forces restaurants to buy more food than necessary, and to pay for food waste disposal; and burdens the environment, with agriculture “a dominant force behind…climate change” (Foley et al., 2011, p.337).Plate waste is under-researched in tourism (Gössling & Peeters, 2015), with buffets being particularly wasteful (15 g per person per day at breakfast; Juvan, Grün, & Dolnicar, 2018). Only two measures are proven to reduce plate waste at hotel buffets: smaller plates, and explaining to guests that getting seconds is better than taking too much at once (Kallbekken & Sælen, 2013). Social science theories underlie these effective practical measures: the idea of plate size reduction stems from obesity theory; and inviting patrons back leverages social norms. The present study develops a new “mini-theory of action” (Rossiter, 2011, p.119) to inform the development a wider range of practical measures for plate waste reduction. Mini-theories of action formulate possible reasons for human behaviour, opening these hypothesized cause-and-effect relationships up for empirical testing in real behavioural contexts (Rossiter, 2011). Mini-theories of action, arguably, are the starting point for any new social science theory. As such, our study's contribution is primarily theoretical. Pathways to practical impact are discussed.We conducted unstructured interviews with 10 chefs and 23 waiters/waitresses (of varying gender and work experience) in three four-star rated hotels serving buffet-style meals to 300–1200 guests daily. We asked why guests leave uneaten food behind. Service staff observe and talk to guests daily, frequently checking if they are finished. In response, guests offer explanations why some food remains uneaten. Chefs design menus to minimize food waste. We identify specific drivers of plate waste, and seven overarching themes.
THE OCCULTISM IN THE MODERN WORLD: A TRIBUTE TO FASHION OR A HISTORICAL REGULARITY?
Authors:   National University of Life and Environmental Scienсes of Ukraine, Storozhuk S. , Hoian I. ,   Vasyl Stefanyk Precarpathian National University
Published: September 2021

The article shows that the modern mass interest in the occult is conditioned, on the one hand, by the world crisis, the lack of stable and reliable foundations for self-determination and human orientation in the world, and on the other – by the formation of impersonal man and the establishment of mass society. The lack of a stable worldview, universal values, ideals and social standards, and, at the same time, unwillingness to pose and solve complex socio-cultural problems, is the main reason why modern (postmodern) people choose occult ideals and norms that do not require deep reflection, however, they provide them with a sense of belonging to the universe. Most of them are offered by the modern mass culture industry. Although its products are of great concern to traditional Christian values and virtues, we have no reason to give them an unequivocally negative assessment at the moment, at least given that they offer models of social relations that due to testing by various occult organizations, may receive a public request, or be rejected.
CONCEPTUALIZATION OF DOMESTIC SCHOOL DEVELOPMENT: PHILOSOPHY, THEORY, PRACTICE (ACCORDING TO THE «NEV UKRAINIAN SCHOOL» PROJEKT)
Authors:   National Pedagogical University named after M.P.Drahomanov, Yakymchuk O.
Published: September 2021

The article analyzes the program-basic document "New Ukrainian School", which is not only conceptual but also practical and implementation. In particular, the document defines the groups of competencies that should be considered by the pedagogical community as a practical basis for teaching and education. This project envisages significant changes in the philosophy of education, the theory of modernization of its key areas and the branch in general, priority and promising steps to bring the education system in line with trends tested by world practice. The document of the European Parliament and the Council of Europe identifies 8 groups of competencies, while the Project outlines 10 key competencies. It is worth noting that these competencies are the key ones, so their features are: multifunctionality, supersubjectivity, interdisciplinarity, multi-component, focus on the formation of critical thinking, reflection, defining one's own position. The concept recognizes their equivalence at all stages of learning. This means that each educational field (linguistic-literary, foreign language, mathematical, natural, technological, informational, social and health, physical culture, civic and historical, artistic) has the educational potential which is necessary for the formation of each key competence. This potential must be realized through the learning process of each subject or course. It is emphasized that the formation of the above competencies requires the use of technologies of modular developmental learning, problem-based learning, project methodology, interactive learning, including game technology, case technology, debates, public presentations, various types of training, critical thinking technology, etc. The prospect of further development of the outlined issues is precisely the development of specific initial, methodological, practical mechanisms for the implementation of these groups of competencies in national education.

Mme M. considère que son cancer pourrait être une punition, une épreuve ou un test et que la meilleure attitude à avoir c’est de s’accrocher à ses croyances religieuses comme un moyen de survie. À l’opposé, Mme A. semble s’orienter vers une attitude de défi, de révolte. Elle aussi aborde la maladie en considérant la récidive comme une épreuve, une punition (bien que non méritée) ; par contre, elle conteste cette sentence. L’interprétation que fera un patient de sa propre condition influencera son attitude vis-à-vis de lui-même, de son couple et des traitements qu’il recevra.
Toxic Research
Authors: Theriault Noah , Kang Simi
Published: September 2021

In a world saturated by toxic substances, the plight of exposed populations has figured prominently in a transdisciplinary body of work that we call political ecologies of toxics. This has, in turn, sparked concerns about the unintended consequences of what Eve Tuck calls “damage-centered research,” which can magnify the very harms it seeks to mitigate. Here, we examine what political ecologists have done to address these concerns. Beginning with work that links toxic harm to broader forces of dispossession and violence, we turn next to reckonings with the queerness, generativity, and even protectiveness of toxics. Together, these studies reveal how the fetishization of purity obscures complex forms of toxic entanglement, stigmatizes “polluted” bodies, and can thereby do as much harm as toxics themselves. We conclude by showing, in dialog with Tuck, how a range of collaborative methodologies (feminist, decolonial, Indigenous, and more-than-human) have advanced our understanding of toxic harm while repositioning research as a form of community-led collective action.
Toxic Sensorium
Authors: Stein Serena , Luna Jessie
Published: September 2021

Pesticides and toxicity are constitutive features of modernization in Africa, despite ongoing portrayals of the continent as “too poor to pollute.” This article examines social science scholarship on agricultural pesticide expansion in Sub-Saharan Africa. We recount the rise of agrochemical usage in colonial projects that placed African smallholder farmers at the forefront of toxic vulnerability. We then outline prevalent literature on “knowledge deficits” and unsafe farmer practices as approaches that can downplay deeper structures. Missing in this literature, we argue, are the embodied and sensory experiences of African farmers as they become pesticide users, even amid an awareness of toxicity. Drawing on ethnographic research in Mozambique and Burkina Faso, we explore how the “toxic sensorium” of using agrochemicals intersects with farmers’ projects of modern aspiration. Th is approach can help elucidate why and how differently situated farmers live with pesticides, thereby expanding existing literature on structural violence and knowledge gaps.
Toxic Waste and Race in Twenty-First Century America
Authors: Mascarenhas Michael , Grattet Ryken , Mege Kathleen
Published: September 2021

In 1987, the United Church of Christ Commission for Racial Justice released its groundbreaking study, Toxic Waste and Race in the United States. The report found race to be the most significant predictor of where hazardous waste facilities were located in the United States. We review this and other studies of environmental racism in an effort to explain the relationship between race and the proximity to hazardous waste facilities. More recent research provides some evidence that the effect is causal, where polluting industries follow the path of least resistance. To date, the published work using Census data ends in 2000, which neglects the period when economic and political changes may have worsened the relationship between race and toxic exposure. Thus, we replicate findings using data from 2010 to show that racial disparities remain persistent in 2010. We conclude with a call for further research on how race and siting have changed during the 2010s.
Conceptualizing and Capturing Outcomes of Environmental Cleanup at Contaminated Sites
Authors: Kiessling Brittany , Maxwell Keely
Published: September 2021

Our article analyzes interdisciplinary literature within the social sciences on outcomes of environmental cleanups at Superfund, brownfield, and other contaminated sites. By focusing on postremediation sites and outcomes, we expand the understanding of the sociopolitical life of contaminated sites over time. First, we examine the technoscientific practices of how scientists and environmental managers seek to make cleanup outcomes legible and meaningful. Next, we engage with a wider array of literature on pollution/toxicity, uncovering circular temporalities in cleanup processes along with continuities in pollution/toxicity and in political struggle. Finally, we examine the social worlds of postremediation landscapes, drawing attention to how cleanups create new relationships among people, history, and nature. In conclusion, we identify areas of opportunity for these insights to inform the conceptualization and evaluation of cleanup outcomes in ways that better incorporate the complex dynamics of postremediation
social worlds.

The acknowledgment of social media as a strategy in health education is essential, providing benefits to health promotion and the prevention and treatment of comorbidities. This study assessed the contribution of WhatsApp use on the prognosis of medical conditions and its impact on enhancing the quality of life. The review protocol used PubMed and Web of Science as databases, followed PRISMA-E 2012 guidelines, was registered in PROSPERO (Nº2021232688), and its risk of bias was analyzed Cochrane Collaboration's tool for assessing the risk of bias. Thirteen impact studies (n = 1653 participants) were selected and showed evidence on metabolic parameters such as reducing blood pressure (7.6%); body mass index-BMI (7.6%); glycated haemoglobin-HbA1c (15.4%); resting heart rate (7.6%); increase in static balance increase on balance (7.6%) and reduced body weight (7.6%). Furthermore, specific findings on each intervention were demonstrated, such as diminished rates of relapse in substance users (7.6%); increased populational knowledge on chronic diseases (23%) associated with a decrease in the potential complications (7.6%), and a rise on treatment adhesion (7.6%); impact on the follow-up of pregnant patients (7.6%) and progress on oral hygiene (15.4%). Therefore, it was concluded that this intervention strategy demonstrated significant magnitude in reducing the progression and complication of the assessed disorders.
The use of 3D printing for the development of a learning tool for the visually impaired.
Authors: Jorge Camila Silva Pereira , Albuquerque Peterson Lobato , Carvalho Fernando
Published: September 2021

3D printing is a technology that allows manufacturing objects from a virtual model. The field of education has appropriated its use due to its potential to contribute to the teaching-learning process, especially for the education of the visually impaired. Visually impaired people develop their skills through alternative means, mainly using auditory and tactile landmarks as a way of obtaining information. Within the innovative perspectives for education, this study aims to propose a learning tool using 3D printing technology to build a board game employed for the use of unplugged programming language in the education of children visually impaired for their development of logical thinking skills. The learning tool production started in its modeling performed using specific software that generated 3D virtual models. Later, these files were sent to a 3D printer for printing, using the fused filament fabrication, originating physical copies of modeled objects. Then, the objects, now printed, went through a finishing process for their completion. Part of the game components received braille indications accordingly to the proposed in this study. As a result, we obtained a game prototype adapted for the visually impaired, made through 3D printing, with the potential to assist in the teaching-learning process.
Information and Communication Technologies in University Libraries
Authors: Ribeiro Larissa Verônica Moreira , Chahini Thelma Helena Costa
Published: September 2021

Digital and assistive technologies are of great relevance to the social, educational, and professional inclusion of persons with disabilities. Within this context, we aim to describe the relevance of information and communication technologies for persons with disabilities in the context of university libraries. Data were collected through a bibliographical research based on secondary sources, namely books, journal articles and other reference materials in the area investigated. The obtained results revealed that although resources such as digital and assistive technologies are available in the market to improve the user experience of persons with disabilities, most university libraries are still lacking several of these resources to supply these users’ information demands. Even with laws ensuring the right to full accessibility, several higher education institutions are still omissive in this regard, leaving their students with disabilities on the margins of the learning process through the support of the university library. On this matter, we emphasize that university libraries must develop their abilities aiming to promote informational and communicational access to users with disabilities using digital and assistive technologies.
A Critique of the Concept of “Non-Western Political Process”
Authors:   Institute of oriental studies, Russian academy of sciences (MOSCOW), Mosyakov Dmitry V.
Published: September 2021

The article is devoted to criticism of the concept of the so-called “non-Western political process”. Author expresses the opinion that this concept, formulated back in the mid-50s of the 20th century, is outdated today. The fact is that after the active phase of the globalization process and huge changes in the political, economic and social structure of Eastern societies over the past 60 years, the differences between how politics is done in the West and the East have virtually disappeared. The article provides evidence that now we can see a certain universal mechanism of power, which is equally intensively used in both Western and Eastern societies and states.

In the author's view, at all its stages ASEAN's policy aimed to foster economic exchanges in Southeast Asia has been and remains dependent upon the external factor. At present, this dependence stems from China, and for the Association, to coordinate its prospective plans with China becomes increasingly difficult.
Theoretical and Practical Issues of Research on the Consumption Needs for Safe Foods in Vietnam Using the Willingness to Pay Model
Authors: Ha Le Thanh , Phuong Nguyen Van , Giam Do Quang , Trung Tran Quang
Published: September 2021

Research on consumer needs for safe foods under the willingness to pay (WTP) approach based on consumer behavior has been performed widely and has contributed greatly to the development of safe foods, assisted enterprises’ decision-making processes in improving agricultural and food products, and provided orientation to policymakers in improving public health as well as in fostering sustainable economic growth. Some of the methods used for measuring WTP for safe foods, such as contingent value (CV), choice experiment (CE), and auction experiment (AE), have made significant contributions to the evaluation of consumers’ WTP for food safety. Moreover, the application of these models has helped to estimate the effects of many factors such as demography, consumer habits, continuation of food safety, individual characteristics, promotion, and product attributes, etc., on the WTP for food safety. The trend of safe food consumption in Vietnam has distinct characteristics, some of which come from national cultural identities; therefore, Vietnamese researchers may approach the empirical studies on this issue all over the world in order to find proper methods for studying consumer needs for safe foods in Vietnam.

Student Mobility as a Form of Education Internationalization: A Systems Approach to Management
Authors: Godenko A. E. , Boyko G. V. , Gadgiev R. B. , Filimonova N. Yu.
Published: September 2021

According to the analysis of the existing internationalization strategies it is demonstrated that its main source is an international students’ mobility, which is based on ability, willingness and common interest in cooperation of three following subjects: countries importing education, education-exporting countries, higher educational institution of the exporting country, which provides its educational services for the citizens of the country importing education. The success of this process depends on a certain set of factor indicators in politics, economics, sociology and technology, which are peculiar to each of three participants. The authors propose common to all the participants list of criteria, which evaluate indicators of the stated factors according to the integrated scale: political (administrative) stability, degree of participants’ cooperation, legislation in educational sphere, mutual amiability of the subjects, level of administrative barriers, peculiarities of demographic situation, economic performance, demand for majors of training, logistic accessibility, the number of graduate students, language attraction of training programs, level of career-oriented activities, correspondence between the level of applicants’ acquirements and requirements of the education-exporting country, competition on the educational services market, accessibility of distance educational technologies, development level and dynamics of innovations. The article gives an integral estimation of the efficiency forecast for the work of exporting higher educational institution with the population of a particular education-importing country. This estimation is carried out by means of the analysis of the formed multi-level hierarchical structure. The convolution of hierarchical elements on each level of the hierarchical structure is done using a generalised f-mean, proposed by Kolmogorov – Nagumo. There are given examples of the proposed methodology implication for quantitative and comparative assessment of the potential of education-importing countries. Due to this, international services of the university determine the most attractive countries in terms of international students’ mobility organization and therefore concentration of administrative and financial resources in the chosen direction, in order to make decision on the university brand promotion on the foreign market of educational services. The model can be easily modified by adding the relevant or excluding irrelevant parameters for a given university.

Published: September 2021

Harmonization of Postgraduate Training System with the Certification of Candidates of Sciences The activities of the postgraduate school and the network of dissertation councils represent the stages of the trajectory of the formation of a researcher with an academic degree. This means that their activities should be coordinated. The article discusses several approaches to the harmonization: at the level of each organization – by the presence or absence of one of the participants in the trajectory, and at the thematic level. For each approach, statistical estimates of consistency are calculated, and cartographic representations of indicators in the context of the subjects of the federation are given. The analysis showed that, in general, there is a territorial alignment of the organizations for postgraduate student training with the organizations in which a candidate’s thesis can be defended.
Missiotropic Axiologic of the University
Authors: Tskhadaya N. D. , Bezgodov D. N. , Belyaeva O. I.
Published: September 2021

The authors view the of the university as a system of values that is logically connected with the nature of knowledge as the subject, goal, and highest value of the university’s main scientific and educational activities. The key criterion of knowledge is the evidential validity. The article reveals its meaning from the position of Russian intuitionism, which combines the method of reflexive analysis with the tradition of ontological proof. The authors treat the meaning of absolute truth intuition as the basis of the value function of knowledge in relation to university education. In accordance with the essential orientation of universities to the reproduction of knowledge, that is the unconditional public good, they are qualified as missiotropic organizations. The University’s missiotropic axiologic is justified as a humanistic alternative to the capitalist ideal of global social harmony. Based on the methodological potential of the fundamental motivational matrix (FMM), the caste attributes of the latter are revealed. The specific nature of the appeal to moral responsibility in the context of corporate governance is revealed; the tendency to legalize ethical responsibility in connection with its instrumental understanding in the context of global market competition is noted.

The Interdependence of FX and Treasury Bonds Markets: The Case of Colombia
Authors: Rincón-Torres Andrey Duván , Rojas-Silva Kimberly , Julio-Román Juan Manuel
Published: September 2021

We study the interdependence of FX and Treasury Bonds (TES) markets in Colombia. To do this, we estimate a heteroskedasticity identified VAR model on the returns of the COP/USD exchange rate (TRM) and bond prices, as well as event-analysis models for return volatilities, number of quotes, quote volume, and bid/ask spreads. The data under analysis consists of 5-minute intraday bid/ask US dollar prices and bond quotes, for an assortment of bond species. For these species we also have the number of bid/ask quotes as well as their volume. We found, also, that the exchange rate conveys information to the TES market, but the opposite does not completely hold: A one percent COP depreciation leads to a persistent reduction of TES prices between 0.05% and 0.22%. However, a 1% TES price increase has a very small effect and not entirely significant on the exchange rate, i.e. a COP appreciation between 0.001% and 0.009%. Furthermore, TRM return volatility increases do not affect bond return volatility but its liquidity, i.e. the bid/ask quote number and volume. These results are coherent with the fact that the FX market more efficiently reflects the effect of shocks than the TES market, which may be due to its low liquidity and concentration on a specific habitat. These results have implications for the design of financial stability policies as well as for private portfolio design, rebalancing and hedging.

Viral hepatitis is a serious public health problem in the world and in Brazil. These are diseases of compulsory notification instituted by the Brazilian Ministry of Health (MS). The records of the affected persons should be made in the Notifiable Diseases Information System (SINAN), which should notify all probable cases, confirmed and outbreaks. The objective of this work is to quantify the number of cases of hepatitis acquired in occupational accidents in Brazil between 2009 and 2018. It is a study is a retrospective observational quantitative analysis of the epidemiological data investigated. In this sense, research was carried out in the databases of the national portal DATASUS (https://datasus.saude.gov.br/). There is an effective contribution of accidents at work to the current incidence rates of viral hepatitis in Brazil, as well as to the reduction of the quality of life of workers – especially those of health. Inconsistencies between epidemiological data recorded in SINAN and studies in the literature may demonstrate the presence of underreporting. Due to the relative scarcity and contradiction of studies, there is no well-established profile for contamination in health services, and there is a need for further studies on the subject.
Vantagens e limitações de alguns instrumentos de rastreio cognitivo usados no brasil na avaliação da demência
Authors: Reis Edson Mário dos
Published: September 2021

Introdução: Com a população idosa crescente no Brasil, as doenças que causam demência tornaram-se as enfermidades neuropsiquiátricas de maior prevalência na terceira idade. O diagnóstico etiológico é baseado em exames laboratoriais, neuroimagem e perfil neuropsicológico característico. Há dificuldades em identificar demência precoce somente através de avaliação clínica e exames médicos de rotina, o que compromete o diagnóstico diferencial. Portanto, faz-se necessário utilizar, tanto os instrumentos de rastreio cognitivo usados no início do processo diagnóstico, quanto os demais instrumentos neuropsicológicos utilizados nas investigações mais amplas. Sabe-se que existe a necessidade de mais informações sobre as vantagens e limitações dos instrumentos utilizados no rastreio cognitivo que facilite a seleção daqueles que mais atendam a demanda do avaliado e do avaliador. Objetivos: Identificar e descrever as vantagens e limitações de alguns dos instrumentos de rastreio cognitivo mais utilizados no Brasil na valiação da demência. Metodologia: Pesquisa bibliográfica em bases eletrônicas e livros, artigos, revistas, periódicos, dissertações e teses com publicações em português e inglês, entre outros, por meio de buscas nas bases de dados BVS Psicologia (DeCS), LILACS, SCIELO, PsyINFO, PubMed. Critérios de exclusão: artigos e livros que não atendam os objetivos da pesquisa. Resultados: 1) Disponibilidade de um quadro para consulta das características psicométricas dos instrumentos de avaliação neuropsicológica. 2) Existem limitações características de cada teste de rastreamento cognitivo que de certa forma o restringe em determinado contexto. 3) É importante ter cautela na utilização desses instrumentos, contudo, existem também muitas vantagens entre os testes. O ideal é que os instrumentos escolhidos apresentem acurácia, níveis de corte adequados por idade e/ou escolaridade e fidedignidade.

It is a fact that windstorm is a natural disaster that can create enormous damages. Thus, the article aims to serve as a guideline in establishing the damages scale as the supporting tool in the windstorm disaster management. The purpose of the scale is to mitigate impacts of windstorm via early warning system, so that local authorities and public at the affected area are able to know the worst-case scenario if windstorm occurred and could make early preparation in minimising the impacts. The damage scale is established based on the current damage criteria as an early warning of windstorm occurrences was adopted from the damages scale which was established outside Malaysia. On the other hand, there is no damages scale originally established in the country. In order to establish this supporting tool, 51 windstorm occurrences in year 2012 to 2016 from 6 districts in Peninsular Malaysia were selected as a study case and 246 damages were assessed. Besides windstorm damages, gust speed, wind direction, rainfall and radar images as raw data, the study also acquires local conditions wind multiplier map coordinated with meteorological station and overlaid with wind direction map at the study area as well. All the damage locations for each windstorm occurrence will be coordinated in the local conditions wind multiplier map. However, the damages which located underneath the same convective cluster with meteorological station, in position with wind direction and gust speed greater than hazard threshold only will be determined its associated intensity. The scale listed each potential damage according to categories either building, property, or tree. The gust speeds at 1-minute in the scale are between 9.0 m/s to 19.3 m/s. From the study, damages scale has similar hierarchy of level damages with existing damages scale but much lower intensity.
Difficulties in Solving Non-Routine Problems: Preliminary Analysis and Results
Authors: Shawan Muslimah , Osman Sharifah , Abu Mohd Salleh
Published: September 2021

Students have been taught to solve problems since primary school. However, they still have been having difficulties in solving mathematics problems, especially non-routine problems. By searching errors in mathematics skills and cognitive abilities that have been causing difficulties in solving non-routine problems, this study aims to determine the dominant difficulties that high-achieving students commonly face.  A problem-solving test (PST) that comprises four non-routine problems involving algebra was distributed to 56 Form Four selected students through purposive sampling. Each problem is followed by a reflection that allows students to describe the difficulties they face while solving the problem. Hence, the qualitative and quantitative analysis of answer scripts as well as students’ reflection shows that the dominant difficulties faced by high-achieving students when solving non-routine problems are language and information management skills. Poor mastery of these two skills has resulted in students being unable to decipher the problem accordingly which then leads to failing to solve the problems. The findings of this study provide important insight for educators and also researchers in assisting students to deal with their difficulties to solve non-routine problems.
El cine español en el catálogo de Netflix: una aproximación desde la perspectiva de la diversidad
Authors: Aranzubia Asier , Gallego J. Ignacio
Published: September 2021

La llegada de la multinacional Netflix ha generado un fuerte impacto en todos los mercados. Este artículo acomete un análisis en términos de diversidad de su catálogo en España con los resultados de dos fotos fijas del catálogo realizadas en noviembre de 2018 y julio de 2019. Además, estos datos se comparan con los de las principales plataformas de SVOD internacionales que operan en España (HBO, Amazon Prime Video y Rakuten TV) y con los de las plataformas de origen español (Movistar+, Filmin y FlixOlé). El trabajo arroja conclusiones poco esperanzadoras a propósito de la diversidad del cine español del catálogo de Netflix.
