Preliminary Studies on a Novel Antimicrobial Compound Producing Bacterium Discovered in the Rio Grande Valley of Texas
Authors: Hernandez Julissa , Ugochukwu Anieto
Published: May 2023

We analyzed different soil samples collected across the Rio Grande Valley (RGV) of Texas for bacteria capable of producing antimicrobial compounds. Of the more than 500 bacterial colonies tested, less than 1 percent gave any indication of the likelihood of producing antimicrobial compounds asdetermined by the diameter of the observed zones of inhibition created when tested on the cultures of safe ESKAPE relatives. One of the soil isolates of interest was further studied with the 16S rRNA gene sequenced and analyzed, and its antimicrobial compound was also extracted using the ethyl acetate and methanol extraction method. The results obtained suggest that the identified bacterium could be a novel specie or at least a sub-specie of the genus Pseudomonas and the novel antimicrobial compound discovered possibly broad spectrum in nature considering that it is active against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, especially Staphylococcus epidermidis, the safe relative of Staphylococcus aureus. Furthermore, positive inhibitory results were obtained when the antimicrobial compound was tested on Bacillus subtilis, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Pseudomonas putida, Enterococcus raffinosus, Erwinia caratovora, Enterobacter aerogenes and an unknown bacterium from an environmental sample etc. The newly discovered antimicrobial compound has been named “Anietocin” and will be the subject of extensive studies in the coming research efforts.

Authors: Kristen Merrill O'Brien  , Margaret P. Weiss  , Pamela Baker
Published: May 2023

After more than 20 years of a critical shortage in special education teachers, this mid-Atlantic state expedited program development for undergraduate-level teacher preparation programs. To meet the accelerated timeline, one programat a large public university used its graduate-level coursework as a model for the undergraduate level program. After initial implementation, it was clear that revisions were necessary. In this article, we provide a description of the program revision activities conducted, including (a) building a representative advisory board, (b) conducting a needs assessment, (c) developing a coherent curriculum map, (d) creating an action plan and implementing reforms, and (e) reviewing ongoing activities for continuous improvement. Implications are described, including how special education teacher preparation programs can use the CEEDAR Center Roadmap to Educator Preparation Reform to guide data-based program revisions, conduct a Q-Sort Activity as a systematic way to identify program priorities, and engage in program review activities, ultimately to better prepare special educators and reduce the teacher shortage.

Authors: Dr. Anna Macedonia  , Dr. Corlis Snow  , Dr. Kelly Acosta  , Dr. Lisa White  , Christy Hunt
Published: May 2023

Discussing the topic of special education teacher shortages across the United States has become commonplace. Although more widespread, special education teacher shortages in rural areas have gained less attention. Teachers in these areas face unique challenges such as overcoming geographic barriers to providing high-quality services, the isolation endemic to rural poverty, and having limited access to resources in schools. Additionally, students with disabilities living in rural areas are more likely to be supported by teachers who are ill-prepared, lack experience, and/or fail to possess the qualifications necessary to meet diverse learning needs. Addressing these challenges requires innovative partnerships between national, state, and university personnel to create systemic change to recruit and retain special educators. The purpose of this article is to describe a partnership between The Collaboration for Effective Educator Development, Accountability, and Reform (CEEDAR) Center, the Mississippi Department of Education (MDE), Education Preparation Programs (EPPs), including Delta State University, and a cross-section of special education directors in the Mississippi Delta and other regions that utilized The Educator Shortages in Special Education Toolkit (Hayes et al., 2019) as a guide, which resulted in the development of the Special Educator Mentoring Framework. This article will explore the Special Educator Mentoring Framework that engaged stakeholders in purposeful activities through the four-step cyclical process to plan, design, implement, and evaluate efforts to address the special educator shortages in rural regions of Mississippi. This unique collaboration highlights promising practices to promote special education teacher preparation and strengthen teaching practice.
How Do Culture and Institutions Jointly Impact Income?
Authors: Kapás Judit
Published: May 2023

The aim of this paper is to look at the joint impact of culture and institutions on economic development by operationalizing the cultural and institutional multipliers conceptualized in the literature. The study uses regression analyses to estimate the two multipliers which are key in an understanding of the interaction of culture and institutions. As for culture, two layers are distinguished, deep culture (values) and a slow-moving cultural layer (beliefs). The cross-country empirical analyses, including IV estimations, provide evidence that the two cultural layers "behave" differently. Deep culture is not a substitute for (better) institutions, however, high-quality institutions can substitute improvement in deep culture, while in the majority of countries, in which institutions are not of high quality, institutions complement improvement in deep culture. Contrary to that, the slow-moving layer does not appear to be a significant determinant of development once institutions are controlled for. But what is more, no sign of interaction with institutions has been detectable. These findings shed light on the unique role of deep culture in economic development.
Potential Benefits of Mixed Waste Collection Methods
Authors: Titrik Ádám
Published: May 2023

It is difficult to determine the ideal way for collecting selective waste since calculations must be made taking into account a variety of collection vehicles, containers, city regions, and verifying vehicles. Additionally, we need to keep in mind that acquiring some statistical information on container filling is crucial for organizing the gathering process. The majority of the vehicles used for the gathering operate on fossil fuels like gasoline, which releases carcinogens into the atmosphere. Since the engine drives a hydraulic pump that generates power to lift the container when it is being emptied, the exhaust emissions are not solely coming from the vehicles when they reach the container. As a result, it is crucial to describe the entire gathering process. On the one hand, we want to safeguard the environment by utilizing selective gathering, but on the other hand, there are gathering vehicles that emit carcinogenic exhaust gas. In order to reduce unneeded pollution from the gathering vehicle, we aim to identify the best solution in this paper for choosing the appropriate selective material collection method.
Reduced Order Modelling of Shigesada-Kawasaki-Teramoto Cross-Diffusion Systems
Authors: MÜLAYİM Gülden
Published: May 2023

Shigesada-Kawasaki-Teramoto (SKT) is the most known equation in population ecology for nonlinear cross-diffusion systems. The full order model (FOM) of the SKT system is constructed using symmetric interior penalty discontinuous Galerkin method (SIPG) in space and the semi-implicit Euler method in time. The reduced order models (ROMs) are solved using proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) Galerkin projection. Discrete empirical interpolation method (DEIM) is used to solve the nonlinearities of the SKT system. Numerical simulations show the accuracy and efficiency of the POD and POD-DEIM reduced solutions for the SKT system.

Purpose: To analyze trends in corneal transplantation surgery and determine the number of domestic and imported corneal grafts used in South Korea.Method: The total number of keratoplasties and number of each individual surgical procedure conducted in 2010 and 2020 were identified using Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service data. The number of keratoplasties using domestic corneas in 2010 and 2020 was determined from the annual report of the Korean Network for Organ Sharing (KONOS). The number of keratoplasties using imported corneas was calculated by subtracting the number of keratoplasties using domestic corneas from the total number of keratoplasties.Results: In 2010, 802 keratoplasties were performed in Korea, of which 299 (37.3%) used imported corneas; 715 (89.2%) were penetrating keratoplasties and 87 (10.8%) were anterior lamellar keratoplasties. In 2020, 911 keratoplasties were done in Korea and 564 (61.9%) used imported corneas; 541 (59.4%) were penetrating keratoplasties, 60 (6.6%) were anterior lamellar keratoplasties, and 310 (34.0%) were endothelial keratoplasties. From 2010 to 2020, the number of penetrating keratoplasties in Korea decreased, while the numbers of endothelial keratoplasties and keratoplasties using imported corneas increased.Conclusions: There was a 30% decrease in the number of penetrating keratoplasties from 2010 to 2020, and a 30% increase in the numbers of endothelial keratoplasties and keratoplasties using imported corneas. The proportions of endothelial keratoplasties and imported corneas have increased steadily in Korea over the last 10 years.
Comparison of Ocular Biometric Measurements Using New Swept-source Optical-coherence Tomography, Low-coherence Reflectometry, A-Scan Biometry, and Autokeratometry
Authors: Cho Jae Jin , Bae Gi Hyun
Published: May 2023

Purpose: We compared optical biometric measurements made using new swept-source optical-coherence tomography, low-coherence reflectometry, autokeratometry, and A-scan biometry.Methods: In total, 86 eyes of 47 patients were included. Axial length, lens thickness, central corneal thickness, anterior chamber depth, and corneal curvature were measured using the Anterion® (Heidelberg Engineering, inc., Heidelberg, Germany) and Lenstar LS 900® (Haag-Streit AG, Koeniz, Switzerland) platforms. Corneal curvature and axial length were measured using the Essilor AKR 750® (Essilor instruments, France, Charenton-le-Pont) and PacScan 300A® (Sonomed Inc., Chicago, IL, USA) platforms, respectively. The evaluated biometric parameters were compared and verified; intraclass correlation coefficients and Bland-Altman plots were used to analyze statistical agreement.Results: The differences between the Anterion® and Lenstar LS 900® platforms in terms of axial length, lens thickness, central corneal thickness, anterior chamber depth, and white-to-white diameter were -0.02 ± 0.08, 0.08 ± 0.13, -2.66 ± 11.12, 0.05 ± 0.12, and 0.08 ± 0.26, respectively. All values were statistically significant. The mean corneal curvature between Anterion® and Lenstar LS 900® had a statistically significant difference of -0.08 ± 0.47, while the difference between the Anterion® and AKR 750® platforms was not significant. Biometric parameters measured using an Anterion® and other devices showed a strong positive correlation when assessed using Pearson’s correlation analysis; there was good agreement between the results when analyzed using intraclass correlation coefficients and Bland-Altman plots.Conclusions: Optical biometric measurements made using the Anterion® platform were not significantly different from those obtained using other devices, but there were significant differences compared to the Lenstar LS 900® platform. Since these significant differences could influence decision making during intraocular lens selection for cataract surgery, the values are clinically useful for reference.

Authors: Yun Jeong Seop , Kim Chul Gu , Kim Jong Woo , Kim Jae Hui
Published: May 2023

Purpose: To evaluate the clinical course of neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) that has shown limited response to ranibizumab and aflibercept.Methods: This retrospective study included 14 eyes with nAMD that showed a limited response to initial treatment using ranibizumab and aflibercept. The changes in visual acuity (VA) during the follow-up period and the incidence and timing of VA deterioration to the level of 0.1 or worse were identified. In cases involving bevacizumab treatment, the follow-up duration and the proportion of patients maintaining a VA of 0.2 or better were identified.Results: During the mean 43.3 ± 33.2 months of follow-up, the VA deteriorated significantly from a mean logarithm of minimum angle of resolution (logMAR) of 0.42 ± 0.34 at diagnosis to 0.91 ± 0.68 at the final follow-up (p = 0.021). A logMAR of 0.3 or greater degree of VA deterioration was noted in six eyes (42.9%). Among the 13 eyes exhibiting a VA of 0.2 or better after the initial treatment, a deterioration to a VA of 0.1 or worse was noted in 6 eyes (46.2%) at a mean 29.7 ± 18.3 months. In eight eyes undergoing bevacizumab treatment, four eyes (50.0%) maintained 0.2 or better VA during the 51.4 ± 35.5 months of follow-up.Conclusions: The clinical course of patients with limited response to ranibizumab and aflibercept was generally unfavorable. However, a relatively long period was required for the deterioration in VA to reach 0.1 or worse. In addition, 0.2 or better VA was maintained in approximately half of the patients.

Authors: Cha Yu Wan , Kim Dae Hyun
Published: May 2023

Purpose: To investigate the outcomes of patients who underwent surgical correction of congenital superior oblique muscle paralysis in adulthood.Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the medical records of 35 patients who underwent surgical correction of congenital superior oblique muscle paralysis after the age of 18 years. At the final follow-up, success was defined as residual hypertropia < 4 prism diopters (PD), whereas failure was defined as residual hypertropia ≥ 5 PD or overcorrection. Clinical features were compared between the success and failure groups to identify factors affecting the surgical outcome. At the final follow-up, the resolution of symptoms, such as head tilt and diplopia, was also recorded.Results: Of the 35 patients, 24 (68.6%) and 11 (31.4%) were classified into the success and failure groups, respectively. Preoperative vertical deviation was larger in the failure group compared to the success group (23.1 vs. 15.2 PD, respectively; p < 0.05). Of the 31 patients with preoperative head tilt, head tilt resolved in 29 (93.5%). Of the 19 patients with diplopia, it resolved in all except 1 who was overcorrected.Conclusions: The preoperative vertical angle of the superior oblique muscle may affect the outcome of surgery performed in adulthood for correcting congenital superior oblique paralysis. Head tilt, diplopia, and subjective symptoms are typically resolved postoperatively.

Authors: Yoo Jeongseo , Rah Sanghoon
Published: May 2023

Purpose: This study investigated the effects of high-dose steroid injections for ethambutol-induced optic neuropathy.Methods: A retrospective study examined 13 patients diagnosed with ethambutol-induced optic neuropathy at Wonju Severance Christian Hospital from December 2016 to November 2020. Methylprednisolone was injected at 1,000 mg/day for 3 days. The patients were evaluated before treatment; immediately after it; and at 1, 6, and 12 months. Visual acuity and visual fields were tested (Humphrey Field Analyzer, Carl Zeiss Meditec, Dublin, CA, USA) and the visual field index (VFI) and mean deviation (MD) were recorded.Results: We analyzed 26 eyes of 13 patients (6 males, 7 females; average age 68.7 years). Immediately after treatment, there was no significant improvement in visual acuity, but the VFI improved by 10% or more in 11 eyes and MD improved by 2 dB or more in 16 eyes. After the end of treatment, 13 of 26 eyes showed improved visual acuity of two lines or more in the Snellen table; VFI improved by more than 10% in 16 eyes and MD b y 2 dB or more in 20 eyes. The average differences in the final VFI and MD were 25.96 (standard deviation [SD] = 29.33) and 7.29 (SD = 7.09), respectively.Conclusions: When patients with ethambutol-induced optic neuropathy were treated with high-dose steroid injections, 60% (16/26) showed visual field improvement immediately after treatment and 77% (20/26) ultimately showed improvement. This suggests that steroids have a therapeutic effect in patients with optic neuropathy caused by ethambutol. Further studies are needed.
A Case Report of Primary Eyelid Tuberculosis
Authors: Han Su Yeon , Kim Sang Duck
Published: May 2023

Purpose: To report a rare case of primary eyelid tuberculosis treated using systemic anti-tuberculosis medications.Case summary: A 30-year-old male presented to our hospital with an upper eyelid mass in the left eye for 1 month. An atypical cystic mass, pale yellow in color with a smooth surface, was observed on the medial side of the left upper eyelid. There were no associated ophthalmic or systemic symptoms. Excisional biopsy of the mass was performed under local anesthesia and histopathological examination revealed chronic granulomatous inflammation with central Langhans-type giant cells. Acid-fast bacilli smear was negative, but polymerase chain reaction for Mycobacterium tuberculosis was positive. There were no significant findings in blood tests and chest radiographs. The patient was diagnosed with primary eyelid tuberculosis and treated with systemic anti-tuberculosis medications for 6 months. There were no complications or recurrences during 1 year of follow-up.Conclusions: Although eyelid tuberculosis is rare, early diagnosis through biopsy is important when a granulomatous tuberculosis lesion is suspected. Delayed diagnosis can lead to serious cosmetic and functional complications. Appropriate systemic anti-tuberculosis medications are required to treat these cases.

Published: May 2023

Atualmente, a disponibilidade de uma ampla variedade de adesivos universais torna difícil aos clínicos escolher o sistema correto para diferentes situações de adesão ao substrato dentinário. Este trabalho apresenta uma revisão sistemática que avaliou a qualidade da camada híbrida criada pelas diferentes estratégias de aplicação de sistemas adesivos universais, no modo autocondicionante e no modo de condicionamento e lavagem, com o objetivo de investigar se as diferenças observadas na camada híbrida são significativas para a prática clínica. Assim, dois revisores realizaram uma pesquisa bibliográfica até dezembro de 2022 na base de dados eletrônicos PubMed (MedLine). Apenas estudos in vitro que avaliaram a qualidade da camada híbrida por meio de microscopia confocal de varredura a laser e que relataram o efeito do uso dos adesivos universais na qualidade da camada híbrida da dentina foram incluídos. Verificou-se que o modo de aplicação dos adesivos universais influencia na qualidade da camada híbrida. Os adesivos aplicados no modo condicionamento e lavagem apresentam a camada híbrida mais espessa e com maiores prolongamentos nos túbulos dentinários. Entretanto, adesivos universais autocondicionantes demonstram uma maior longevidade devido à sua interface resina-dentina ser mais resistente ao envelhecimento associado ao fato de que estudos demonstram que uma abordagem de condicionamento prévio à aplicação do sistema adesivo não melhora a resistência de união. A partir desses resultados podemos concluir que a abordagem autocondicionante consiste na opção mais vantajosa para aplicação em dentina, uma vez que proporciona maior longevidade, menor possibilidade de nanoinfiltração e degradação da camada híbrida com o envelhecimento.

A COVID-19, relatada pela primeira vez na China em dezembro de 2019, foi declarada uma emergência de saúde pública em janeiro de 2020 pela Organização Mundial da Saúde (OMS). A consequência dessa pandemia gerou um grande impacto na rotina diária dos indivíduos, repercutindo negativamente em pacientes com dores crônicas. A fibromialgia (FM) é uma condição crônica, caracterizada pela presença de dor generalizada, fadiga, distúrbios do sono e alterações cognitivas. Sua prevalência é alta, estimada em 2,5% no Brasil, sendo mais comum em mulheres. Fatores demográficos, socioeconômicos e psicossociais foram associados à maior intensidade da dor e interferência durante o distanciamento social nesses pacientes. Esse impacto está relacionado com o fechamento das clínicas e dos espaços de atividades físicas; desvio dos profissionais de saúde para atividades relacionadas ao COVID-19, aumentando o tempo de espera das consultas; atrasos no acesso oportuno aos medicamentos devido à prescrição reduzida; a redução de consultas multiprofissionais, podem ter favorecido na diminuição da qualidade de vida (QV). O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar a interferência desses fatores na QV e na dor dos pacientes durante a pandemia. Pacientes fibromiálgicos de três clínicas em Aracaju- SE foram entrevistados a partir de questionários. Os dados deste estudo sugerem associação entre o bloqueio pandêmico do COVID-19 e o agravamento dos sintomas da fibromialgia, assim como a qualidade de vida dos pacientes que convivem com essa doença, principalmente quando avaliados a dor, humor e sono. A interrupção do tratamento e a presença de outras comorbidades associadas, pioraram a condição de saúde.

Authors: Ferreira Danielle de Almeida Borges , Cividini Fatima Regina
Published: May 2023

Trauma is one of the main causes of death and disability in Brazil, requiring immediate and adequate care to minimize damage and sequelae. The effective performance of the nursing professional in the emergency room is essential for the recovery of the traumatized patient. The research proposes to analyze the challenges faced by nursing and the role of nurses in the emergency room, based on the scientific literature of the last five years. The qualitative and descriptive approach uses the integrative literature review modality. The nurse's work in the emergency room involves care and management, including team organization, quick decision-making, and a holistic approach to the trauma patient. The Fugulin Scale is an assistance instrument used to measure personnel, but it can be difficult to apply due to demand variability. It is critical to secure additional staff to ensure proper patient care. The emergency room has peculiarities that require technical and managerial skills from professionals, as well as sensitivity and empathy to offer humanized and individualized care, without judgments. Adequate preparation of professionals, a safe work environment and a complete team are essential for quality care. It is crucial to invest in continuing education, better equipped units and integrated teams to optimize care for trauma patients.

Published: May 2023

A reconstrução mamaria autóloga é de grande importância para pacientes que necessitam de melhora em sua forma mamaria, como em paciente pós mastectomias. São realizadas diversas formas de retalho para reconstrução mamaria, porém as mais utilizadas são o Perfurante da Artéria Epigástrica Inferior (DIEP), do Músculo Reto Abdominal Transverso (TRAM) e Latíssimo Dorsal (LD). Sob essa análise, devido sua importância na qualidade de vida dos pacientes é necessário compreender as evidências literárias acerca das características dos principais retalhos das mamas. Diante disso, o objetivo do presente estudo é avaliar o uso do retalho DIEP, TRAM e LD na reconstrução mamaria autóloga. Trata-se de uma revisão integrativa da literatura realizada nas bases de dados PUBMED e MEDLINE na qual foram utilizados os descritores “Mammaplasty AND Transplantation, Autologous” em DeCS/MeSH, sendo identificados 151 artigos, dos quais 20 preencheram os critérios. Em relação ao uso dos retalhos mamários, os mais utilizados possuem uma taxa de complicação baixa, sendo seguros de se realizarem. No entanto, apesar disso, as complicações devem ser observadas com atenção por serem importantes e levarem a possível perda do retalho e necessidade de nova abordagem cirúrgica. Sendo assim, uma boa vigilância no pós-operatório pode prevenir complicações, melhorando o resultado estético e diminuindo custos com o manejo de comorbidades pós operatórias e melhorando a qualidade de vida do paciente.

The main component of the essential oil, p-cymene, was obtained as 81.29% in the first year, 81.39% in the second year and 66.62% in the third year. The plant height of the plants grown in Adana is between 84.67-61.57 cm, the average is 73.12 cm, the number of branches is between 37.00-25.71 units/plant, the average is 31.36 units/plant, the fresh herbage weight is between 304.33-190.90 g/plant, the average is 247.62 g/plant, dry herbage weight between 113.66-80.43 g/plant, average 97.05 g/plant, dry leaf weight between 72.00-31.40 g/plant, average 51.70 g/plant and essential oil ratio between 1.26-0.98%, the average was determined as 1.12%. The rate of p-cimen, the main component of the essential oil, was determined as 69.52% in the first year and 76.38% in the second year. Some characteristics such as plant height, fresh and dry grass weights were higher in Ermenek than Adana results. In terms of essential oil content, plants cultivated in Adana had higher values. In this case, it would be more appropriate to choose a region according to the purpose of cultivation.

Bu çalışma 2021 yılında Tokat Gaziosmanpaşa Üniversitesi Tarımsal Uygulama ve Araştırma Merkez Müdürlüğü’ne ait köklendirme serasında yürütülmüştür. Çalışmada, farklı karanlık koşulları altında 6000 ppm indol-3-bütirik asit (IBA) ve 2000 ppm kafeik asit (KA) uygulamalarının karadut odun çeliklerinin köklenmesi üzerine etkisi araştırılmıştır. Deneme, tesadüf parselleri deneme desenine göre faktöriyel düzende 3 tekerrürlü olarak kurulmuştur. Materyal olarak müdürlük bünyesinde bulunan damızlık karadut ağaçlarının bir yaşlı dallarından hazırlanan odun çelikleri kullanılmıştır. Odun çelikleri 2021 yılının şubat ayında alınarak alttan ısıtmalı (20±2°C) perlit ortamına dikilmiştir. Çalışmada kullanılan çelikler 3 gruba ayrılarak birinci gruptaki çeliklerin üzeri dikimden sonra siyah malç örtüsü ile kapatılmış (Dikim Sonrası Karanlık=DSK); ikinci gruptaki çelikler dikimden önce 5 gün karanlık koşulda bekletildikten sonra köklendirme ortamına dikilmiş (Dikim Öncesi Karanlık=DÖK); üçüncü gruptaki çeliklere ise herhangi bir karanlık uygulaması yapılmamıştır (Standart). Her bir karanlık uygulamasındaki çeliklere 6000 ppm IBA ve 2000 ppm KA tek başına veya birlikte uygulanmıştır. Köklenme ortamında 90 gün bekletilen çelikler bu süre sonunda sökülerek; köklenme oranı, kallus oluşum oranı, çürüme oranı, kök sayısı, kök uzunluğu ve kök çapı değerleri kaydedilmiştir. Çalışma sonucunda köklenme oranı %2.2 ile %77.8 arasında değişmiştir. En yüksek köklenme oranına DÖK koşulundaki çeliklere 6000 ppm IBA ve 6000 ppm IBA + 2000 ppm KA uygulamaları sonucunda ulaşılmıştır. Kallus oluşturan çeliklerin oranı %64.4 ile %93.3, kök sayısı 1.5 ile14.4 kök/çelik, kök uzunluğu 3.6 ile10.8 cm ve kök çapı 0.86 ile1.53 mm arasında değişim göstermiştir. Elde edilen veriler, DÖK koşulunda bekletilen çeliklere IBA'nın tek başına ya da KA ile birlikte uygulanmasının karadutun köklenmesine olumlu etki yaptığını göstermiştir.

Imagined families, contested childhoods: Doing gender as subversive deviances of children’s agency
Authors: YILMAZ Ozan Can
Published: May 2023

Recent ethnographies of childhood have shown that the current politics of family and children led to new epistemological frameworks and intersectional methodologies. These scholarly works have broadened the scope of ethnographic inquiry beyond the household or caregiver level to encompass a wider socio-political and economic context. They consider the interruptions of state regulations and political economy on the welfare of children in examining the gendered parental practices of child-rearing. This critical review, first, seeks to explicate scholarly work on the intersectionality of gendered parenting and the embodiment of gender, which unveils the peculiarities and intricate nature of child-rearing practices in the Turkish context. Second, it distinguishes itself by drawing attention to children’s agency as a locus of deviation and resistance vis-à-vis the moralizing ideologies and regulative discourses.

Bu araştırmanın amacı, hemşirelik öğrencilerinin problem çözme becerileri ve bilimsel araştırmaya yönelik kaygı düzeylerini belirlemektir. Kesitsel tipte planlanan araştırmanın evrenini, 2019-2020 öğretim yılında bir hemşirelik fakültesinde öğrenimini sürdüren ve “Hemşirelikte Araştırma Süreci” derslerini almış olan (N=567) öğrenciler oluşturmuştur. Örneklem seçimi yapılmadan, araştırmaya gönüllü katılan öğrencilerden veriler toplanmıştır (n=308), evrenin %54.32’sine ulaşılmıştır. Verilerin toplanmasında, problem çözme becerisi konusunda bireylerin sübjektif algılarını değerlendiren “Problem Çözme Envanteri” (PÇE), araştırmaya yönelik kaygı düzeylerini ölçmek için “Araştırmaya Yönelik Kaygı” (AYK) ölçeği kullanılmıştır. Araştırmaya katılan öğrencilerin %82.5’i kadındır. Öğrencilerin %56.8’i olgu ya da durumlara eleştirel gözle bakabildiğini belirtirken, %48.4’ü kendi problem çözme becerisini “orta düzeyde” değerlendirmektedir. Öğrencilerin PÇE puan ortancası100.50’dir (min=32, maks=192). AYK ölçeği madde puan ortancası38.00’dir (min=12, maks=60). İki ölçek arasında ters yönde orta düzeyde anlamlı bir ilişki vardır (r=-0.424, p˂0.01). Öğrencilerin problem çözme becerilerine yönelik algıları, genel ölçek ortalamasına yakın bir puanla yetersiz bulunurken, araştırma yapmaya yönelik kaygıları da orta düzeydedir. Öğrencilerin problem çözme becerisi artıkça araştırma yapma konusunda daha az kaygılandıkları söylenebilir. Geleceğin hemşire adaylarının problem çözme becerilerinin aldıkları mesleki eğitim sürecinde geliştirilmesiyle hemşirelik uygulamalarında bakımın kalitesinin artacağı gerçeğinden hareketle, hem problem çözme hem de araştırma yapma becerilerinin gelişimini destekleyecek eğitim içeriklerine, hemşirelik eğitim müfredatında ayrıntılı bir şekilde yer verilmesi önerilir.
