Algorithmic Social Sorting And New Legal Narratives On Digital Privacy
Authors: Stepanović Ivana
Published: December 2022

The use of algorithms for social sorting has imposed the need to challenge the traditional understanding of the private sphere as a sealed-off realm free from surveillance and outside intervention. The relationship between private and public has become dynamic and complex while the borderline between the two zones remains to be in a state of flux. The concept of digital privacy is related to the data doubles rather than physical bodies, and it is limited to partial control over personal data. The General Data Protection Regulation, along with the new legislations, namely, Artificial Intelligence Act and Digital Services Act offer a conceptualisation of digital privacy that recognises novel dataveillance practices that involve the collection, interpretation, use and misuse of biometric and behavioural data. This paper uses the method of conceptual analysis to investigate the new definitions of digital privacy that emerge from the corpus of legislative acts including GDPR, AIA and DSA and find out how they generate new legal narratives on privacy that recognise the dangers of echo chambers and algorithmic decision-making.

Published: December 2022

Violence against children is one of the most serious forms of violation of basic human rights. Significant efforts have been made in Bosnia and Herzegovina and the Republic of Serbia to protect children from violence at the systemic level, but these processes, as well as their effects, have not been thoroughly evaluated so far. In order to review and better understand the context for the protection of children from violence in institutions, an analysis was conducted in which the normative and strategic framework in both countries were critically reviewed. The goal of this paper is to present the results of the analysis which indicate the existence of a good basis in the normative and strategic framework, but also the need to strengthen the capacity of institutions through improving existing procedures, introducing child safeguarding policies and improving competencies of professionals to recognize and respond to situations in which the safety of children is at risk.
Istraživanja dimenzija kriminalne karijere: implikacije za tretman hroničnih prestupnika
Authors: Bogićević Dragana
Published: December 2022

A criminal career describes long-term patterns of criminal activity in the life-course of an offender. It is characterized by onset, persistence, escalation, and termination. Knowledge of the continuum of a criminal career and its dimensions is a direct prerequisite for understanding the development of criminal behavior, as well as for treating chronic offenders. Numerous research studies on criminal career and its dimensions, especially frequency and duration, make their contribution to the treatment of the so-called chronic offenders. Therefore, the aim of this paper is to show how the existing knowledge can be used in the treatment of chronic offenders by presenting the main research findings on the dimensions of the criminal career. After an explanation of the dimensions of a criminal career, the main findings of research on the dimensions of a criminal career are presented, and finally, the implications that may be relevant for improving the treatment of chronic offenders are presented.

There are single and multi parameter bioclimatic indices that enable assessment of the impact of weather and climatic conditions on health of a human being. This study aimed to comparatively assess health risks in the Arctic's open area using the bioclimatic indices. Relying on the data from the Central Siberian Department for Hydrometeorology and Environmental Monitoring (Krasnoyarsk) that describe the weather on Cape Chelyuskin in 2010–2022, we assessed the temperature, the integral indicator of body cooling conditions (IIBCC), the wind chill factor (WCF), the effective (ET) and the net effective temperature (NET), and the universal thermal climate index (UTCI). It was found that the WCF temperature can characterize the degree of frost risk as established by the IIBCC: the indicator has the critical frost risk period lasting November through April, and the respective risk level by WCF is "discomfort" (coolness) and "very cold", that by UTCI — "extreme stress", by ET — "caution — frostbite of exposed skin" (shorter), by NET — "threat of frostbite" (longer). The IIBCC and the UTCI show that the risk of cold injury in the conditions of Cape Chelyuskin is year-round: according to the IIBCC, its level changes between moderate (4–6 months) and critical (4–6 months), and according to UTCI, it may be very strong (4 months), and very strong and extreme (8 months). We have proven the advantages of UTCI over other integral indicators in assessment of the cold-related health risk and updated the basis for the hygienic requirements regulating practice of work in the open or in unheated enclosed spaces during the cold season.
Critical Success Factors Study for Taiwan Bakery Shops

Abstract

Bakery products are a must-have food for many people every day. According to the survey, the annual global bakery market exceeds 300 billion US dollars, how to stand out in a highly competitive environment is a business issue for every bakery shop. Whether it is a chain bakery shop or an independent bakery shop, it must face strict selection of customers. The decision of which store to buy for customers may include factors such as product, location, interior decoration, price, service, advertisement, etc. Therefore, how to focus on the most important factor to increase customers' willingness to buy is the only way for bakery shops to win the competition. This research uses the Delphi method to conduct expert surveys. From the four aspects of product, sales, store design and service methods, three rounds of questionnaire are conducted on experts. The results show that the "taste of bakery products" and "appearance (style, size, color) of bakery products" on the product side, the "brightness of the physical storefront" on the store design and the "sales attitude of the service staff" and "whether to provide accumulated reward points", are considered by experts to be the most critical success factors for bakery shops.

Sibling Position and the Development of Social Skills among Children
Authors: Molesy Anthony , Ngyah-Etchutambe Ijang , Fon Koi
Published: December 2022

Purpose: This article examines the role sibling position (birth order) plays in the development of social skills. Given that the family is the first social system a child gets exposed to, it is assumed that the child’s birth position and the relationships that exist among family members plays a substantial role in their development of social skills. The paper focuses on three birth positions: first borns, last borns and only child. The study thus aims to examine whether the a fore mentioned birth positions influences a child’s tendency to communicate and relate with others.  Does one’s birth position influence his or her tendency to communicate and relate with others?

Methodology: It is a conceptual paper that employs a meta-analytic approach to review, synthesize and draw conclusions from existing literature on sibling position specifically the first born, last born and only child and the effect such positions have on the development of social skills.

Findings: It was realized that first borns perceive themselves as being treated differently from later children, are accustomed to being the centre of attention and tend to be high achievers. Last borns are perceived to be creative, outgoing, extraverted, disobedient and tend to resist the authority of the bigger siblings. They exhibit interpersonal skills but have an abnormally strong feeling of inferiority as result of being over pampered by their seniors. Only children are not independent and have difficulty in delaying gratification. They demand much love from their partners with unwillingness to reciprocate. They are also most often self-centred, maladjusted, unlikable, anxious and dependent on others. The degree to which people tend to relate and communicate with others is influenced to some extent by their birth order. 

Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and policy: It is thus vital to minimize certain cultural attitudes exhibited by parents, siblings and other family members in the course of socialization at home that can deter the development of social skills in children. This is supported by Bandura’s (1978) Theory of Observational Learning, as children learn or model behaviours from especially elderly siblings and other caregivers; Bowlby's (1969/1982) attachment theory which maintains that patterns of relating are built upon the early interactions between the primary caregiver and the child.

Published: December 2022

Introducción: La fibrilación auricular (FA), es la arritmia cardíaca más frecuente, afectando aproximadamente al 2% de la población general y su prevalencia va aumentando conforme avanza la edad y la presencia de factores de riesgo; además, puede estar asociada a diferentes comorbilidades como: HTA, DM, IC, IAM, entre otras. Objetivo: Determinar la prevalencia de efectos adversos y eficacia de la terapia anticoagulante con Dabigatrán frente a Warfarina en pacientes con fibrilación auricular no valvular en el HTMC, durante el período de enero de 2014 a enero de 2018. Materiales y métodos: Es un estudio retrospectivo, analítico y descriptivo; el universo estaba formado por 500 pacientes del HTMC con diagnóstico de fibrilación auricular. El instrumento de recolección de datos fue por medio del sistema AS400 del IESS, en el cual se recolectó la información a partir de las historias clínicas de los pacientes y almacenada en Microsoft Excel. Se obtuvo una muestra, según los criterios de inclusión, dando un total de 209 pacientes, divididos en dos grupos, el primero de 106 pacientes medicados con Warfarina y el segundo de 103 pacientes que fueron medicados con Dabigatrán. Resultados: Se obtuvo los resultados de la valoración del riesgo tromboembólico y hemorrágico, a partir de las escalas CHADS2VASC y HAS BLED, respectivamente. Los pacientes presentaron las mismas comorbilidades, no hubo diferencia estadísticamente significativa entre los diferentes grupos de edad y género, tampoco para tabaco y obesidad; al contrario, si existió una diferencia estadísticamente significativa para alcoholismo, probablemente existe mayor exposición a este factor de riesgo cardiovascular en uno de los grupos; para insuficiencia cardiaca, esto indicaría mayor presencia de insuficiencia cardiaca en uno de los grupos. Conclusión: Se concluyó, que ambos grupos presentaban la misma probabilidad de presentar eventos hemorrágicos por medio del score HAS BLED; sin embargo, los valores P estadísticamente significativos para los diferentes tipos de sangrados, demuestran que hay una mayor prevalencia de sangrado en un grupo que en otro. Se determinó, que los pacientes medicados con Warfarina presentaron mayor prevalencia de sangrados durante los 4 años del estudio, a diferencia del grupo de pacientes medicados con Dabigatrán.

Published: December 2022

Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR) are two rapidly evolving fields of technology that use digital elements to enhance an user-experienced 3D environment. In order to predict the future applications of Virtual and Augmented Reality, its history and evolution must be examined. This paper was created after reviewing research papers and collecting data to create a detailed analysis based on our research. We have identified the origin of VR and how it has since then been developed to be used in various fields of study. Additionally we discuss the stemming of AR from VR and its development with its rapid growth. We also examine the potential for AR and VR growth in the next 10 years. Overall, we are able to conclude that Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality are fields with much opportunity to expand.
Factors Related to the Event of Stunting in Toddlers Aged 24 – 59 Months in the Work Area of the Katobu Community Health Center, Muna Regency

Published: December 2022

One of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) is to end hunger and all types of malnutrition by 2030 and to ensure that everyone has access to sufficient, safe, and nutritious food. Stunting, a developmental delay that often manifests itself in children older than 2 years old, is caused by persistent malnutrition throughout pregnancy and the first few years of life. In 2018, 27.7% of toddlers in Southeast Sulawesi were stunted, making it a significant public health issue. The goal of this study is to identify risk factors for stunting among children between the ages of 24- and 59-months old living in the catchment area of Katobu Health Center. Research method combining analytical observing with a case-control setup. Information collected via surveys, in-person interviews, the use of a height chart for children, and files from Katobu Health Center were analyzed. Birth weight and maternal upper arm circumference (LiLA) during pregnancy were not associated with a higher risk of stunting (each p value = 0.5). However, the odds ratio for stunting was significantly lower among children who were exclusively breastfed (p = 0.03). One of the ways to prevent children from becoming too short is to nurse them exclusively. Therefore, promoting advice on exclusive breastfeeding is important to improve toddlers' nutritional condition.
Relationship between Fever Level and Leukocyte Levels in Children with Typhoid Fever
Authors: Thu Huỳnh Thanh
Published: December 2022

Salmonella typhi spreads typhoid fever, a multisystem illness. The bacteria that cause typhoid fever may promote the generation of endotoxins that alter haematological assays, particularly those involving leukocytes. Exogenous pyrogens, such as bacteria or an immune reaction, produce fever. Pyogen may be an interleukin-1-like protein. This chemical may stimulate the hypothalamus to create more prostaglandin E2, causing fever. We also found lymphocytosis, monocytosis, eosinophilia, and thrombocytopenia. Endotoxin and endogenous mediators may reduce bone marrow, causing leucopenia. Recent research shows that the average leukocyte count is normal or slightly elevated, despite the idea that 25% of the population has leucopenia. This research examines whether fever and leukocyte counts are linked in hospitalized typhoid patients. This cross-sectional study was undertaken in the hospital's pediatrics and medical records departments. The sample included typhoid-hospitalized children. Forty persons were randomly recruited for this study. Chi-Square was used for univariate and multivariate analysis. (p = 0.816; OR = 1.181; 95% CI = 0.292-4.778). In typhoid-hospitalized youngsters, fever and leukocyte counts are unrelated.

Published: December 2022

This research was carried to examine academic scaffolding as a predictor of achievement motivation for learning chemistry among secondary school students in Kenya. The study was anchored on scaffolding theory developed by Bruner and achievement motivation theory by McClelland. The researcher used convergent parallel mixed research design to examine the relationship between the study variables. The target population was 10528 form three students taking chemistry in 284 public secondary schools in Kiambu County in the year 2020. Purposive sampling was used to select Kiambu County and form three students taking chemistry. Stratified sampling was used to select the schools while simple random sampling was used to select students to participate in the study. The study was conducted in 17 secondary schools using a sample of 440 students. A pilot study was done in one school involving 40 students to establish the validity and reliability of the research instruments. Data were collected using questionnaires and interview schedules and then analyzed using both descriptive and inferential statistics. The results indicated that there was a moderate positive and statistically significant correlation between academic scaffolding and achievement motivation for learning chemistry, r (336) = .50, p< .05. Academic scaffolding was found to be a significant predictor of academic scaffolding and R square was .25 which suggested that 25% variance in achievement motivation for learning chemistry can be explained by academic scaffolding. Qualitative results also showed that academic scaffolding influenced the student’s achievement motivation for learning chemistry. The study recommends that school counsellors and chemistry teachers should enhance academic scaffolding in order to boost the student’s achievement motivation for learning chemistry for better learning outcomes in the subject.

Published: December 2022

The article describes the features of the emotional sphere, cognitive functions and the course of psychosomatic disorders in children and adolescents who have suffered spinal trauma and comorbidities; the role of depression in the genesis of psychosomatic (psychovegetative) disorders of different localization is specified; the typology of depressive disorders was carried out with the establishment of their nosological affiliation, severity and clinical features on the basis of clinical and psychopathological research. The article includes a comparative age-complex dynamic clinical and psychopathological study of a number of psychosomatic disorders as well as features of the emotional sphere and cognitive functions in a representative group of subjects – children and adolescents who have suffered spinal trauma. A new clinical-ontogenetic concept based on a systems approach has been developed. The initial manifestations and stages of AKP dynamics in the digestive system, skin, motor, endocrine systems and in the form of algic (cephalgia, myalgia, cardialgia) manifestations at different ages are described. Criteria for the transition of non-pathological (vegetative-vascular) forms of somatic support of emotions into pathological (psycho-vegetative) forms – psychosomatic disorders – were established. Based on the dynamic clinical and psychopathological study of children and adolescents with functional disorders in various organs and systems, risk factors have been identified that allow to predict the course of AKP. A typology of depressive disorders was developed, a classification of somatic disorders caused by them was proposed, specificity, age features and clinical variants of AKP, their connection with pathological (constitutional and cerebrally organically altered) soil were described. The practical significance of the results is to expand the understanding of physicians – child psychiatrists and pediatricians – about the importance of depressive disorders in the development of a common, almost insufficiently studied group of AKP, manifested mainly by somatic (autonomic-visceral) disorders. Criteria for early diagnosis of emotional disorders in the structure of AKP, their differentiation at different stages of ontogenesis were determined. The principles of complex differentiated treatment were formulated, which includes, along with symptomatic, the use of psychopharmacological and psychotherapeutic means, as well as prevention of AKP at an early age.

Published: December 2022

This article is devoted to the analysis of scientific information that has already been developed in the direction of researching tolerance to uncertainty in modern business, the development of a conceptual model of this phenomenon, and the planning of further research in this direction.

Since today the concept of «uncertainty tolerance» is used in an extremely broad sense, there is a need to narrow the boundaries of this concept and differentiate it by areas of activity, since each area has its own specifics, risks options and unforeseen situations.

In order to ensure a correct understanding of the term «uncertainty tolerance», related to ways of dealing with situations of uncertainty scientific sources were analyzed, and the results of the operationalization of the constructive model of uncertainty tolerance in modern business, which include a description of its components, were presented.

Further research will be focused on the interrelationship study of the tolerance to uncertainty phenomenon’s conceptual model components in the conditions of conducting modern business.

Las brechas en la adherencia de los profesionales a las prácticas seguras pueden tener consecuencias importantes para la salud de los pacientes. Una gran parte de los problemas de seguridad ocurren en presencia de paciente, por lo que la implicación de éste en su seguridad es de vital importancia. Esta investigación aborda la implicación del paciente como auditor de prácticas de seguridad en alianza con la organización sanitaria y con el enfoque de la atención centrada en la persona. El paciente auditor es una persona del entorno no asistencial, que colabora de forma voluntaria y anónima para identificar el cumplimiento de los profesionales de las prácticas seguras mientras acompaña o recibe asistencia sanitaria. El principal objetivo de esta tesis es: evaluar la factibilidad y validez de implicar a los pacientes y familiares como aliados auditores de prácticas seguras en las organizaciones sanitarias. El estudio se ha desarrollado mediante metodología mixta. Por una parte, se realizó un estudio cualitativo exploratorio mediante 6 grupos focales (43 participantes). En ellos se exploró la percepción de la incorporación de pacientes en el rol de auditores desde la perspectiva de los pacientes, profesionales y gestores. Por otra parte, se reclutó a 136 pacientes y acompañantes del Hospital de Día de Oncología y de Hematología, y 64 padres y madres de niños con patologías crónicas del Hospital Universitario de Navarra (HUN). En ellos se realizó una intervención educativa con el fin de evaluar la mejora en su capacitación para asumir el rol de auditores. Las prácticas seguras seleccionadas fueron: la identificación de pacientes, la higiene de manos, la identificación del tratamiento, los efectos secundarios relacionados con la medicación y, en el caso de los niños, el pesaje para calcular la dosis de la medicación. A través de un cuestionario se evaluó tanto la validez como la disposición de los participantes para ser auditores de prácticas seguras, así como para interpelar a los profesionales si no se adherían a las mismas. Se realizaron análisis antes-después de la intervención formativa. Para conocer las características del paciente auditor se realizó una regresión logística. La información proporcionada por pacientes y familiares actuando como auditores proporciona a las organizaciones sanitarias una información muy valiosa sobre seguridad y calidad de la atención que no podría obtenerse de otra manera. Este nuevo rol constituye una forma innovadora de implicar a los pacientes y familiares en la seguridad de los pacientes. Este trabajo de investigación proporciona a las organizaciones las directrices a seguir para poder hacer efectiva esta nueva función.
Masonluk ve Mimar Sinan Dergisinde Bahsi Geçen Türk Edebiyatçılar
Authors: YAPRAK Tahsin
Published: December 2022

Bilindiği üzere, şair ve yazarların felsefi, siyasî görüşlerinin ya da dinî inanışlarının izlerini eserlerinde bulmak mümkündür. Edebiyat araştırmacıları da eserleri daha iyi anlamak adına bu görüşler ve inanışlar üzerinde de araştırmalar yapmış ve eserlerde bunların izini sürmüşlerdir. Bir anlamda bir felsefi görüş, bir yaşam biçimi olduğu düşünülebilecek Masonluk da bazı şairlerin ve yazarların hayata bakışını etkilemiş ve bu düşünce sisteminin eserlerine de etkisi olmuştur. Ancak, bilindiği gibi, Masonlukla ilgili, kamuoyunda birçok komplo teorisi ve spekülatif düşünce kendine yer bulmuştur. Bunların doğruluğu ya da yanlışlığı çalışmanın konusu değildir. Çalışmada bilimsel bakışın gerektirdiği nesnelliği sağlamak adına, bu düşünce biçimi, “Türkiye Hür ve Kabul Edilmiş Masonları Büyük Locasının tarihi, çağdaş ve gerçekçi açıdan araştırma ve yayın organıdır.” alt başlığıyla yayımlanan Mimar Sinan isimli dergide ve hakemlik süreçlerinden geçmiş yayınlarda dile getirilen görüşlerle sınırlandırılacaktır. Çalışmada ayrıca, yine aynı derginin içinde Mason olduğu ifade edilen, biyografileri yayımlanan, eserlerinden Masonlukla ilişkili olduğu düşünülen hususlarla ilgili örnekler verilen sanatçılardan da bahsedilecektir.
Análise do conceito de equilíbrio químico apresentado nos livros didáticos de Química, aprovados pelo PNLD 2018-2020
Authors: Silva Aline Marques da , Costa Denise Kriedte da
Published: December 2022

O livro didático é uma ferramenta que auxilia professores e alunos a desenvolverem diversas atividades em sala de aula. Neste artigo, analisa-se qualitativamente o conceito de equilíbrio químico, realizado a partir da inspeção de seis livros de Química, aprovados pelo Plano Nacional do Livro Didático (2018-2020). Objetivou-se conhecer a forma que o conceito equilíbrio químico é abordado nessas obras, considerando cinco indicadores: contextualização do conceito de equilíbrio químico; linguagem e rigor científico; evolução histórica; ilustrações sobre o conceito; e o relacionamento desses conceitos com as atividades práticas, considerando a importância da aprendizagem de Ciências, utilizando ocorrências do cotidiano. Assim, evidenciou-se que o livro didático pode, em algumas situações, dificultar a compreensão do conceito de equilíbrio químico, quando utilizado sem a supervisão do professor. Destaca-se a falta de estudos que mensuram a magnitude do livro didático ser suporte eficiente ao processo de ensino-aprendizagem nos contextos da disciplina de Química.

Considerando a influência da lei das respostas múltiplas proposta por Thorndike (1913) e a utilização de jogos como recurso didático para a aprendizagem matemática, este artigo tem como objetivo verificar as tentativas e erros apresentados por alunos durante a aplicação de um jogo envolvendo a noção de comparação entre números inteiros. Para isso, foi aplicado o jogo denominado passeio do siri, com alunos de uma turma do 6° ano do ensino fundamental anos finais, o qual proporcionou um ambiente favorável à execução de sucessivas tentativas pelos alunos, até chegarem à solução da situação proposta. Esse tipo de atividade tem o potencial de promover a reflexão, o levantamento e teste de hipóteses, além do contato com o erro, para a construção e/ou consolidação de um conhecimento matemático, permitindo ainda que o professor possa traçar um panorama da compreensão dos alunos acerca da noção que vem sendo trabalhada.

Published: December 2022

Neste artigo apresentamos uma análise de resoluções referente a duas questões sobre o cálculo de perímetro e de área, realizadas por estudantes do 1º ano do Ensino Médio. O objetivo foi identificar e analisar as dificuldades e defasagens que os participantes desta pesquisa apresentavam acerca dos conceitos e operações envolvendo área e perímetro. As duas questões foram aplicadas de forma remota, pela plataforma Google Meet, para 78 estudantes, no início do ano letivo de 2021, que as resolveram individualmente e sem consulta. Em seguida, realizamos uma análise de erros das resoluções desenvolvidas pelos participantes, à luz da interação de aspectos formais, algorítmicos e intuitivos. De maneira geral, os resultados indicaram dificuldades conceituais e operatórias sobre área e perímetro para boa parte dos participantes, que não inter-relacionaram aspectos formais, algorítmicos e intuitivos em suas resoluções.
