Detectando patrones anómalos de publicación científica en España (II). Las causas: el impacto del sistema de evaluación científica
Authors: Delgado López-Cózar Emilio , Martín Martín Alberto
Published: July 2024

Constatada la alteración en los patrones de publicación científica en España en la última década pero especialmente entre los años 2017 y 2021, este trabajo pretende buscar explicaciones que esclarezcan los motivos que los han provocado. El factor clave que explica el cambio en el comportamiento de publicación de los científicos españoles es el sistema de evaluación científica imperante que premia preferentemente la publicación y las actividades editoriales en revistas bien posicionadas en los Journal Citation Reports o sucedáneos. Los méritos contemplados para la acreditación del profesorado universitario así como los indicios de calidad empleados para otorgar los sexenios (complementos de productividad en investigación) son testimonio explicativo de este fenómeno. Esta demanda de publicación será satisfecha por editoriales de nuevo cuño que necesitadas de clientes (autores y artículos) para hacer florecer sus negocios despliegan una estrategia de puertas abiertas y unas prácticas editoriales muy eficientes (gran rapidez a módicos costes publicando en acceso abierto) que las hace enormemente atractivas para investigadores como los españoles tan necesitados de publicación y de méritos editoriales. Se describen pormenorizadamente estas estrategias que han llevado a estas editoriales a fagocitar el sistema de publicación científica en España.

Published: July 2024

Public health care institutions same as private health care institutions are present in almost every city in Croatia. Public health care institutions provide stability, security, and most of all they are traditionally among the people in Croatia. Private health care institutions are basically young and modern institutions with different and new management system. Main analyses and metrics which Policlinic Intermed uses in its business are SWOT analyses and BCG metrics. Through those methods and analyses this polyclinic can make right decisions in order to bring required marketing activities for this kind of business. A purpose of this research is to bring out strategies that are necessary for making marketing decisions and activities and clarify that private institutions are different then public ones and their need to be advertise and promote in order to survive on the market.
Precession of planets' orbits between Newtonian gravity and Einstein's general relativity
Authors: Corda Christian
Published: July 2024

The recent result that, contrary to a longstanding conviction older than 160 years, the precession of Mercury perihelion can be achieved in Newtonian gravity with a very high precision by correctly analyzing the situation without neglecting Mercury's mass is confirmed. Orbit's precession does not occur in an inertial (in Newtonian sense) frame of reference, but it occurs in the non-inertial frame of reference of the Sun because in Newtonian theory, the distance which is travelled by a body depends on the frame of reference in which the motion of the body is analyzed. After reviewing a previous solution, the precession is directly obtained from the orbit equation in the non-inertial frame of reference of the Sun. The Newtonian formula of the precession of planets' perihelion breaks down for the other planets because the predicted Newtonian result is indeed too large for Venus and Earth. In a previous paper, it was shown that corrections due to gravitational and rotational time dilation, in an intermediate framework (a particular post-Newtonian approximation of general relativity) which analyzes gravity between Newton and Einstein, solve the problem in accordance with some other results in the literature. By adding such corrections, a result consistent with the one of general relativity was indeed obtained. Those corrections also are re-analyzed in this paper by stressing the difference between general relativity and Newtonian physics by evoking the Einstein Equivalence Principle, and the third postulate of relativity. This framework of gravity between Newton and Einstein seems consistent with global covariance. Finally, it is important to stress that a better understanding of gravitational effects in an intermediate framework between Newtonian theory and general relativity, which is one of the goals of this paper, could, in principle, be crucial for a better understanding of the famous Dark Matter and Dark Energy problems.

A STUDY ON POLICY HOLDERS PREFERENCE TOWARDS LIFE INSURANCE POLICY IN ERODE DISTRICT
Authors: Ramyashree A
Published: July 2024

Insurance is basically working on the principle of ‘many sharing the loss of a few’.  People facing common risks come together and make small contributions to a common fund and it can be called a co-operative venture.  Insurance is also an effective risk management tool.  The responsibility of taking care of the family, ensuring the security of the family are shifted from the shoulders of an individual to the life insurance companies since it curtails risk and substitutes certainty for uncertainty in human life.  Life is a roller coaster ride and is full of twists and turns, one cannot take anything for granted in life.  Life insurance policy helps in not only mitigating risk but also provides a financial cushion against adverse financial burdens suffered.  A life insurance policy is distinct from other financial instruments because of the risk cover provided.  It is one of the basic needs of an individual; every individual for his own sake and for the sake of his family should invest in life insurance.  Life insurance provides for risk, life and health cover, investment, savings and tax shelter. This study Aims to findout to identity the Satifaction level of the policy holders in Erode District.

El reto de evaluar los Presupuestos Participativos: revisión de modelos y planteamiento de una propuesta sintética
Authors: Esteban-Carbonell Elisa , Romero-Martín Sandra , Tomás-del Río Eva María , Gómez-Quintero Juan David
Published: July 2024

Participatory budgets (PB) have become the most widespread mechanism in the framework of the construction of participatory democracies on a planetary scale. At the same time, although at a slower pace, there has been a proliferation of initiatives that seek to gauge the democratic quality of these public budgetary management processes. The diversity of experiences, the heterogeneity of socio-political contexts in which they are implemented, and their own evolution have generated a wide but confusing analytical repertoire for the evaluative practice of participatory budgets. Consequently, to adequately evaluate this mechanism of democratic deepening constitutes a challenge, in addition to an imperative for administrations and analysts. The ultimate aim of this paper is to formulate a proposal for a synthetic evaluation model that gathers and organizes this repertoire of works. The method involved a review of the existing evaluative models in the scientific literature by identifying the analytical axes included in each of the proposals. Based on this analysis, a proposal is formulated that integrates the results of the review and includes other emerging categories of analysis. The proposed model includes 105 indicators grouped into 35 areas, 15 criteria and 4 dimensions. The results provide significant innovations in two directions. On the one hand, in terms of the internal structure of the proposed model, a complete methodological sequence is incorporated that overcomes the fragmentation in terms of the levels of categorization of the previous inputs analyzed. On the other hand, in terms of its content, the model includes an area related to the deployment and development of the participatory process, which allows the incorporation of contingent variables that contribute to registering the dynamism of these experiences. Consequently, the indicators included in the model, in addition to being relevant, measurable and easy to apply, are sensitive to capture those aspects that can contribute to plan how to face the limitations detected and strengthen the potential of the different processes that are implemented. This model aims to contribute to the design of systematic evaluation procedures and could be used to evaluate future experiences.

Gobernar por objetivos. La Matriz Estratégica ODS de Tucumán como plataforma de coordinación pública
Authors: Seiler Cristhian Rubén
Published: July 2024

Los gobiernos son desafiados continuamente a superar la fragmentación de sus administraciones públicas y la desarticulación de las políticas y programas que implementan. En las últimas tres décadas, la naturaleza y posibles soluciones de este fenómeno han despertado gran preocupación en la gestión pública y un destacado interés en el ámbito académico de las ciencias políticas y administrativas. Dentro de ese debate y con el fin de generar un aporte en los niveles subnacionales de gobierno, este trabajo sostiene que el fortalecimiento y acumulación de aprendizaje dentro del sistema provincial de planificación puede constituirse en una plataforma de coordinación y resolución de buena parte de la tendencia a la fragmentación y desarticulación de las administraciones estatales. El fortalecimiento del sistema provincial de planificación y la construcción de la Matriz Estratégica ODS en la provincia de Tucumán (Argentina) exponen aprendizajes institucionales significativos en esta materia.

La lucha contra el desempleo tecnológico. Análisis de casos subnacionales en México
Authors: Cabrero Mendoza Enrique , Guajardo Mendoza Miguel Adolfo
Published: July 2024

This paper studies the risk of technological unemployment in Mexico, both at the national level and in two states: Querétaro (QRO) and San Luis Potosí (SLP). Using the methodology of Frey and Osborne (2013) adapted to the INEGI’s National Occupations System, it was found that both QRO (51%) and SLP (57%) are below the national average (67%) in terms of technological unemployment risk. However, the situation changes when analyzing some strategic sectors in QRO, such as food with an average unemployment rate of 84%, automotive with 75% and household appliances with 92%. The same occurs in SLP, where the food sector reaches 95% and the automotive sector 93%. Therefore, this phenomenon cannot be analyzed only from a national or state perspective, a sectoral look is also required. In addition, it was found that the probability of being at high risk is higher for women, younger age groups, and people with lower levels of education on average. Finally, it was identified that for all the sectors studied, the great mass of people at high risk is found in the middle schooling segments. This could be interpreted as an imminent polarization of employment, which would imply the concentration of the employed at the extremes, in terms of skills, with a gradual disappearance of the segments in the middle. The question remains open: What public policy agenda should Latin American countries deploy in this area?

The aim of this study is to critically analyze the challenges and possibilities underlying the application of participatory processes based on artificial intelligence algorithms in politics. It will focus on the proposal of augmented democracy which is being designed and developed from different technological and academic fields based on digital twins and design principles. Currently, the disaffection of citizens in the different political processes, such as the drafting of laws and the implementation of strategies and public policies, and the inability of political representatives to fully absorb the voice of the citizens, has become a burden for the development of modern societies. In response to such social and political challenges, the academic and technological world has come up with participatory proposals such as augmented democracy that raise the possibility of adapting and applying technology from the productive industry: digital twins.
Corrupción y renta petrolera: un análisis empírico de datos de panel
Authors: Monsalve Farías Daniela , Gómez Domínguez José Gregorio , Puente Camba José Manuel
Published: July 2024

For some countries, having abundant natural resources such as oil has become a catalyst for economic development. However, for other countries this has ceased to be a blessing and has become a phenomenon characterized by unfavorable economic and institutional performance. This paradox is known as the curse of natural resources and has been studied by various authors since the 19th century. Corruption is among the main causes involved in this dynamic, affecting the efficient distribution of resources and long-term economic growth. The purpose of this study is to analyze the hypothesis that oil revenue increases corruption and whether this relationship is maintained depending on institutional and economic variables. It also determines whether there is a difference between the OPEC and non-OPEC member countries. To address the research questions, a main econometric model and two auxiliary models are developed. The first includes variables linked to the oil sector; the second incorporates institutional variables such as accountability, regulatory framework and political stability; and the third considers variables that capture the macroeconomic environment of the countries. The work is carried out during the period 1990-2017 and includes a sample of 47 countries, where 28% belong to OPEC. A panel data model is used through the minimum generalized squares methodology (FGLS) to make a more robust estimation. As the most relevant finding of the study, it was obtained that, with an increase of 1 percentage point in oil revenue as a percentage of GDP, the corruption index increases by 0.001806 units, this result being statistically significant at 1%. Similarly, when control variables at the institutional level and the macroeconomic environment are included, the relationship between oil revenue and corruption remains statistically significant. Finally, it was not possible to empirically prove that there is a significant difference between this relationship when discriminating between OPEC and non-OPEC countries.
Hacia la madurez de los portales de datos públicos abiertos en el sector público. Un análisis comparado del nivel local de gobierno en España
Authors: Criado J. Ignacio , Jiménez Cid Carlos , Alcaide Muñoz Laura
Published: July 2024

Open public data portals have become one of the main technologies of public administrations for the exercise of transparency, accountability, citizen participation and co-production of public services. Few empirical studies have analyzed on a large scale the use of these platforms considering their multidimensional nature. This research offers an empirical analysis of how these technological artifacts are being used at the Spanish local level. An observation of 66 open public data web portals enabled by Spanish municipalities with more than 50,000 inhabitants has been carried out through a framework of indicators and dimensions based on previous literature. The results, derived from a descriptive statistical analysis of the state of evolution of the portals observed, show a certain preference for a technical development linked to transparency, as opposed to a social and reuse dimension. The implications of this study highlight an incipient transformation of local public administration, whereas the paradigm of smart public management -more participative and collaborative- has not yet fully accomplished. Also, this study provides a basis for the development of future research that requires further study of the dimensions of citizen participation and co-production by the advent of open public data.
¿Inciden las innovaciones del sector público en el vínculo Estado-sociedad? Aportes teórico-metodológicos para evaluar políticas públicas participativas en América Latina
Authors: Guardamagna María Melina
Published: July 2024

Citizen participation is a central component among the most innovative ways of managing the public sector. As such, it contributes to the practices of association and/or articulation between the actors and the State, enhancing skills, capacities, and social ties, democratizing public management and collaborating in the possibility of moving towards policy co-production schemes. During the exceptional period of the last few years, changes in the development of participatory policies in Latin America have been observed, but also setbacks. The objective of this paper is to present an instrument to evaluate the impact of citizen involvement in policy processes, considering the situation of recent years and its repercussions on the participatory management. To this end, a matrix scheme is used that covers the multiple dimensions of participation in each of the stages of public policy. Contextual elements are also incorporated to adapt the tool to the particularities of each territory. This scheme is based on the results of previous research, an exhaustive bibliographic survey and the comparative analysis of case studies in the region -where subnational and local governments from Mexico, Colombia, Ecuador, Chile, Brazil and Argentina are incorporated- in order to have devices to monitor the effects of the innovations produced in the public sector and their impact on the modes of linkage, articulation and coordination between the State and society.

A Comparative Study of Traditional and Quiz Team-Type Cooperative Learning Approaches on Students' Academic Performance in Geography
Authors: Rahman Muhammad Fauzi
Published: July 2024

This Classroom Action Research conducted at Madrasah Aliyah Negeri Asahan, Asahan Regency, in the academic year 2018/2019, investigates the efficacy of the Quiz Team Type Cooperative Learning Model (QTCLM) on enhancing student engagement and academic performance in Anthroposphere studies within class XI-IPS2. Specifically, it aims to assess: (1) the variation in student learning activities, and (2) the improvement in student learning outcomes following the QTCLM implementation. The research, adopting a Class Action Research (CAR) methodology, involved the entirety of the XI-IPS2 class, comprising 28 students. Data were amassed utilizing indirect communication techniques and systematic observation, subsequently analyzed through descriptive quantitative methods. Findings reveal a notable escalation in student learning activities from an initial 56.84% in Cycle I to 69.99% in Cycle II post-QTCLM application. Concurrently, student learning outcomes exhibited a significant rise from 71% in Cycle I to 87% in Cycle II. This improvement indicates that the objectives of classical completion have been satisfactorily achieved. The results corroborate the action hypothesis posited at the outset of the study: Implementing the QTCLM in teaching Anthroposphere material in class XI-IPS2 at MAN Asahan effectively enhances student participation and academic achievement, ensuring a minimum of 85% classical completeness. This research underscores the potential of interactive and cooperative learning strategies in fostering a more engaging and fruitful educational environment.

This research aims to determine the process of the assuro maca tradition of the Labakkang sub-district community, Pangkep district. The process in this case includes the history of the beginning of the assuro maca tradition, the development of the Assuro maca tradition and the continuation of the Assuro maca tradition. This type of research is qualitative descriptive research. Data collection methods are through interviews, participatory observation and documentation in obtaining primary data to be used as research results which are supported by secondary data sourced from studies of scientific literature. The data analysis techniques used are data collection, data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. The research results show that the beginning of the assuro maca tradition began when Islam entered the archipelago. The development of the assuro maca tradition, in the past, its implementation was carried out in a large house which was usually called Arajang, but as time progressed, people now had private homes that were capable of doing so, so the implementation of the assuro maca tradition was carried out in their own homes. The potential for the assuro maca tradition is very large due to the values of brotherhood and togetherness inherent in this tradition.

Essa pesquisa parte da indagação sobre que histórias as infâncias podem contar através dos sonhos, explorando as representações oníricas infantis e as múltiplas formas que as crianças veem o mundo. A partir da perspectiva da sociologia da infância e da poética como gramática das culturas infantis, a pesquisa destaca que as infâncias e seus sonhos são espaços de resistência oferecendo uma crítica ao mal-estar cultural e social que vivemos na modernidade. Nesse sentido, proponho uma articulação sobre esperança e barbárie e o lugar da infância na modernidade. Um lugar que se mostra através da face de desigualdade e da exclusão, a partir das narrativas das crianças que participaram da pesquisa, onde o sonho diurno se coloca como fio narrativo para que essa história possa ser contada. A pesquisa adota uma abordagem etnográfica e a experimentação artística por meio da confecção de filtro dos sonhos, valorizando o diálogo, as narrativas, e as histórias, visando a construção do conhecimento e de pedagogias que se constituem e se vinculam em diversos espaços sociais, valorizando os conhecimentos produzidos a partir das manifestações culturais, de saberes locais e de sujeitos tidos como “marginalizados” dentro da sociedade. Tomando as infâncias e os sonhos enquanto um momento de reflexividade, as representações se revelam como testemunhos de uma cultura, despertam e evidenciam o mal-estar cultural em que vivemos.

A atenção ao aspecto da espiritualidade se torna gradativamente necessária na prática em saúde e há um conjunto de evidências que demonstram a forte relação entre espiritualidade, religião, religiosidade e o processo saúde-doença, adoecimento e cura. Sempre mais a ciência entende a importância da dimensão espiritual na abordagem integral do ser humano, avaliada como recurso importante pelos pacientes no enfrentamento das doenças e do sofrimento. Isso é hoje mais aceito no meio científico, em dezenas de associações e sociedades de especialidades médicas e de outras profissões da saúde. Papa Francisco traz, desde 2013, conceitos e olhares que colocam uma nova luz e novas perspectivas, desafios e esperança para a prática em saúde, estimulando uma profunda renovação individual, nas instituições e nos sistemas de saúde, sempre com o olhar de abraçar a todos, todos, como sempre nos lembra. Traz núcleos de sentido e chaves para a prática em saúde que carregam em si uma potência transformadora, revolucionária, especialmente para o continente da desigualdade, a América Latina.
Evangelii gaudium e libertação: opção preferencial pelos pobres
Authors: Medeiros Alexandre
Published: July 2024

Pesquisas na área da Educação, mais particularmente em torno de Paulo Freire, constituem as provocações que motivaram o presente estudo. Logo, sem a pretensão de trazer aqui uma escrita teológica, oferecemos um diálogo entre as obras Evangelii gaudium, do papa Francisco, publicada no final de 2013, e Teologia da libertação: perspectivas de Gustavo Gutiérrez, publicada em 1971. O objetivo é buscar nas duas obras aproximações em torno da opção preferencial pelos pobres. A conclusão aqui estabelecida é de que há discursos semelhantes entre os dos primórdios da teologia da libertação e o documento eclesiástico. Este breve ensaio dialógico busca uma contribuição do cristianismo para nossos dias, a favor de uma teologia conscientizadora, de uma teologia da vida, contra os mecanismos da morte.
Translation Peculiarities of Religious Terminology in L.N.Tolstoy's Novel "Resurrection" into English
Authors: Bozhanova Kseniia Sergeevna
Published: July 2024

The subject of the study is L.N. Tolstoy's novel "Resurrection" and its translations into English. As part of this work, two English translations will be analized, one of them (“The Resurrection”) was made in 1899 by Louise Yakovlevna Mood and published by "Alice and Books". The second translation titled “The Awakening" was translated by William Smith and published in 1900 by "New York Street Publishing House". The subject of the study is to identify ways of interlanguage translation of religious terminology from Russian into English. The main focus of the work is on the lexical and semantic analysis of religious lexical units, as well as the analysis of types of translation transformations, of which the most frequent are the selection of equivalent correspondence, descriptive translation and transliteration. The work uses a comparative method that allows us to establish similarities and differences of lexical units in the text of the original novel "Resurrection" and its translations. By means of the contextual analysis method, the dependence of the meaning of these units on the context is analyzed. Using the continuous sampling method, religious terminology is selected and divided into thematic groups: "Names of the sacraments and lexemes associated with them", "Elements and forms of worship", "Elements of the church calendar", "Objects of worship", "Names of the Church hierarchy", "The Temple and its structure, parts", "Vestments of the clergy, their individual parts", "Prayers, texts of prayers and hymns and their components", "Names of church holidays", "Names of books of church content", "Names of ritual food" and "Names of persons of spiritual guarantors". The main difficulty in translation is the rather wide and diverse use of religious nominations, for which the translator needs to understand in detail the features and differences of religious terminology.
