Authors: Russell Anne F , Kagan Olga S , Huber Mary M
Published: November 2020

Background: U.S. national emergency was declared in mid-March 2020 due to the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. Subsequently, a period of stay-at-home orders, regulatory changes, evolving medical recommendations, and food supply chain disruptions occurred. There is little published research on how such changes affected food allergy management for children with this diagnosis.Objective: The study goal was to identify parent perspectives with regard to if and/or how pandemic-related regulatorychanges and evolving medical recommendations have affected food allergy management.Methods: A survey was distributed to parents of children with food allergy. An electronic Internet forms survey link wasavailable for completion during July 2020. Data were presented as descriptive statistics, cleaned, and coded into a spreadsheetbefore analysis. Frequencies and percentage were calculated to describe participants’ characteristics and responses.Results: Of 377 responses, 359 met inclusion criteria. Concerns about COVID-19 exposure were expressed in 65.7% about accessing an emergency department and 73.6% had school reentry concerns; 66% had not discussed recommended anaphylaxis management algorithm changes with a provider; 85.8% had not discussed the temporary U.S. Food and Drug Administration food labeling policy with a provider. Most (62%) reported shortages of preferred safe food brands. 62% spent more time cooking safe foods from scratch. With regard to the recommendation by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) for classroom dining, 57.7% planned to request modifications. With regard to the CDC’s recommendation to use inhalers versus nebulizers, 37.7% had not discussed the topic with a provider. Ninety-two written comments were analyzed and grouped into seven themes.Conclusion: New pandemic-related regulations, food supply chain disruptions, and evolving medical recommendations resulted in intensified burdens for respondents, including the increased time needed to complete food allergy management and school reentry concerns. Study results can inform clinical team members (e.g., physicians, nurses, dieticians) of effects thatpandemic-related changes may have on this patient population, with subsequent consideration of patient-specific screening,education, and shared decision-making with regard to risk mitigation needs.

Los docentes, los estudiantes y las NTIC: una nueva visión del uso de las tecnologías en el aula de clases
Authors: Cangrejo Patarroyo Julián David
Published: November 2020

Las Nuevas Tecnologías de la Información y la Comunicación (NTIC) han logrado que las personas se vean enfrentadas a la cultura revolucionaria del internet, visto como el eje principal de la comunicación del siglo actual, y sean puestas a prueba, desafiadas, para lograr adaptarse a los cambios acelerados de la sociedad. A partir de estos cambios, la institución educativa y en particular las aulas escolares, han sido empujadas a un espacio tecnológico que domina el mundo actual. Es por eso que los docentes y en cierta forma los estudiantes, han tratado de encontrar la forma de integrar en los procesos de aprendizaje, las herramientas ofrecidas por las NTIC. Los gobiernos -y sus ministerios de educación- han entendido que la incursión de las tecnologías en las escuelas es necesaria, tanto por las nuevas competencias comunicativas, como para alcanzar los estándares actualizados impuestos por la globalización que día a día es acogida en el mundo entero.

Authors: Yelfiza Yelfiza , Siska Siska
Published: November 2020

This research aimed to investigate the relevance between the literature reviews and the research questions of the theses written by the students who graduated in 2019 from seven study programs in STKIP PGRI Sumatera Barat. The research design was qualitative research which focused on describing, explaining, and exploring the studentsâ€™ thesis writings, whether the literature reviews described were relevant to their research questions. Purposive sampling was the technique used to select the data that consisted of 13 studentsâ€™ theses. This research focused on those 13 theses because they were written in a qualitative method, which showed the relevance between research questions and the literature review. Here, content analysis was used to analyze the data to show whether the literature review of each thesis discusses the relevant theories to answer the research questions. The result showed that among 13 studentsâ€™ theses, 6 theses were relevant, and 7 were irrelevant. It means that more students had written with irrelevant theories. It can be suggested to the thesis advisors to give more attention to the quality of studentsâ€™ theses because the irrelevance can interfere with the qualities of their theses. Â
Focus Position for Stripping Remnant
Authors: Al Zahrani Mohammad Ali , Al Thagafi Khulud Helal
Published: November 2020

The current paper examines the syntactic properties of HA stripping: a type of ellipsis. Within the Minimalist framework, the paper adopts the PF-Deletion approach to show that stripping in HA is derived firstly by the movement of the remnant constituent from TP to Focus Position (FP), and, secondly, by the deletion of the TP. These two operations are licensed by the Ellipsis feature (E) located in the focus head FÂ°. Thus, on the one hand, the paper contributes to the existing body of literature supporting the hotly-debated issues on the movement of the stripping remnants, and on the other, enriches the very minimal HA studies on ellipsis. The findings show that HA stripped constituents must move to Spec, FP, before the TP- deletion process. Two pieces of evidence in support of the focus movement to FP spring from Island sensitivity and p-stranding facts in HA.

Valsts kases kontos ilgstoši uzglabāti naudas atlikumi izbeigtajos kriminālprocesos
Authors: Siliņš Austris
Published: November 2020

Latvijā pēc kriminālprocesu izbeigšanas tiesībsargājošo iestāžu deponēto līdzekļu kontos tiek ilgstoši uzglabāti naudas atlikumi, kurus tiesiskā regulējuma dēļ nav iespējams novirzīt paredzētajam mērķim, proti, atdot naudas devējam vai ieskaitīt šos naudas līdzekļus valsts budžetā. Kā viens no drošības līdzekļu veidiem kriminālprocesā tiek piemērota drošības nauda. Drošības nauda tiek izraudzīta arī likumā minētajos gadījumos, kad lemj par apcietinājuma piemērošanu. Kriminālprocesa laikā izņemto naudu un drošības naudu ieskaita tiesībsargājošo iestāžu deponēto līdzekļu kontos. Tiesībsargājošās iestādes, kurām izveidoti šādi konti, atbilstoši procesa virzītāja nolēmumiem veic kontā iemaksātās kriminālprocesā izņemtās naudas un drošības naudas atmaksu vai iemaksu valsts budžetā. Nosakot konkrētas darbības, kas jāveic ar naudu, kas atrodas deponēto līdzekļu kontos, likumdevējs nav paredzējis vienotu procesu, kā nauda atdodama. Problēmsituācija rodas arī tādēļ, ka ne vienmēr ir iespējams naudu atdot tās devējam. Rakstā tiek pētīts tiesiskais regulējums, kādas ir iestādes tiesības rīkoties ar šo naudu, un sniegti priekšlikumi normatīvā regulējuma pilnveidošanai, lai šo situāciju uzlabotu un deponēto līdzekļu kontos ilgstoši neglabātos naudas atlikumi.

In Latvia, cash balances are stored for a long time in institutions deposited funds accounts, in terminated criminal proceedings, which within the legal framework cannot be directed to the intended purpose, namely, to return the money to the lender or transfer it to the state budget. As one of the types of security measures, a security deposit is applicable in criminal proceedings. The security deposit is also selected in the cases referred to in the law, when it is decided on the application of a security measure – detention. Money withdrawn in criminal proceedings and security money shall be credited to the accounts of funds deposited by law enforcement authorities. Law enforcement authorities to which such accounts have been established shall, in accordance with the decisions of the person conducting the proceedings, reimburse the withdrawn money and security deposit paid into the account or deposit it into the state budget. When determining specific actions to be performed with money held in deposited funds accounts, the legislator has not provided for a unified process by how money shall be returned, as well as a problem situation arises because it is not always practically possible to return money to the lender. The article will study the legal framework how the institution is entitled to dispose of this money, and provide proposals for improving the regulatory framework to improve the current situation, as a result, funds would not be stored in the deposited funds accounts for a long time.

Authors: Dr. Satyananda Panda
Published: November 2020

The aim of the present study was to investigate psychological correlates of substance abuse among first-admission male and female patients diagnosed with substance use disorders. Data was collected from a sample of 60 (30 male and 30 female) first-admitted patients with substance use disorders (SUDs), with no previous history of specialized treatment (addiction clinics, psychiatry). Substance use disorders were diagnosed according to DSM-V. Patients were assessed with Beck Depression Inventory and Eysenck Personality Questionnaire- Revised (EPQ-R). The statistical analysis indicated that depression did not correlate with psychoticism (r = -.062). There existed a negative and significant correlation between depression and extraversion (r = -.68, p<.01). There also existed a negative and significant correlation between extraversion and neuroticism (r= -.601, p<.01). Neuroticism correlated with depression positively and significantly (r = .59, p<.01). There was no significant difference found between hospitalized male and female patients with substance abuse disorders on different psychological variables like depression, psychoticism, and neuroticism. However, a significant difference among them was found on extraversion (t=3.17, p<.01). Depression and personality traits still may have some role in the etiology of substance use disorder and may act either as predisposing, precipitating or perpetuating factors. So, depression and personality traits of a person should be considered during treatment, management, prevention and rehabilitation of the patients with substance use disorder.

To What Extent Does Destructive Cults’ Leaders Employ Mind Control Techniques to Recruit Members in Order to Achieve Their Aims?
Authors: Ms. Dipal Patel
Published: November 2020

With the constant media attention that cultism receives today, people want to know “to what extent do destructive cults’ leaders employ mind control techniques to recruit members in order to achieve their aims?” The research question was developed and inspired by several books and television shows focused on cults. This research question was then investigated by evaluating numerous researches found in online libraries, journals, podcasts, and books. The researches were then compiled and important notes were marked. All the key definitions are mentioned as well as limitations of the research methods used in order to assess cults. In order to holistically address the question all the three levels of analysis were used: biological, cognitive, and sociocultural. The concepts are further clarified with explaining two major exemplar cults: Peoples Temple and Heaven’s Gate. The essay concludes that though there are some possibilities where mind control may be employed with admirable intentions, most of the evidence suggests otherwise. Moreover, individuals lose their identity in the cults. They are trained and conditioned and degraded from humans to mere pets. Cult leaders rob their members of the one thing that makes them human by entirely controlling them: higher cognitive thinking. All of them share one major trait: their need to control anything and everything. In terms of dependency, it is a two-way relationship since the members are dependent on the leader and the leader is dependent on the members as his/her power stems from the members’ vulnerability. Finally, to answer the research question it could be said that to a large extent destructive cults’ leaders employ mind control techniques to recruit members in order to achieve their aims.
