The development of spatial orientation in children 5-6 years old with visual impairment
Authors: Repina A. I. , Trefilova D. A.
Published: September 2024

Relevance. At the present stage, despite a significant amount of research and various methodological developments, the problem of the development of spatial orientation in children aged 5-6 years with visual impairment remains relevant. The age period of pre-school and junior schoolchildren is called the "golden age", referring to the rate of development of coordination abilities. To develop coordination abilities, we recommend using: multicolored cubes, gymnastic sticks, ropes, balls of different colors and sizes: small, medium (including "sound balls") and large balls. When conducting classes, we recommend using methodological techniques based on motor activity.

The aim is to determine the mechanisms of spatial orientation development in children with visual impairments.

Organization and methods of research. Visual impairment has a negative effect on the overall physical development of children and their health. In children with visual pathology, there is a significant lag in physical development, and the ability to assess and regulate spatiotemporal and dynamic parameters is significantly reduced.

The results of the study and their discussion. The main factor in the development of orientation in the classroom is the gradual dynamic introduction of more complex exercises into classes.

Conclusions. When conducting classes, it is necessary to focus on the assessment of indicators of such parameters as speed of motor reaction, orientation in space, dexterity, which are most significant in the development of orientation in space.
Miért nem beszélhetünk a kései Petrinél Mari-versekről?
Authors: Pinczési Botond
Published: September 2024

Petri György szerelmi költészetében hangsúlyos formában három múzsa jelenik meg: Sára, Maya és Mari. A tanulmány legutóbbi múzsa előfordulásának poétikai jellemzőit vizsgálja Petri kései költészetében. A kutatás egyrészt a culleri aposztrophé fogalma, másrészt a számadás poétikája felől elemzi a korpuszt, melynek köszönhetően beazonosíthatóvá válik, hogy a megnevezett alak nem megszólítható, viszont más múzsák által helyettesíthető a versekben. Sőt, mintha Mari a többi múzsához való közvetítésben töltené be valódi jelentőségét. Ebből adódóan azért nem beszélhetünk a kései Petri szerelmi költészetében Mari-versekről, mert a múzsa a számadó típusú beszédben a leélt élet részeként, az „összestöbbinő” egy tagjaként definiálható.

Published: September 2024

Background: Opium is one of the most commonly abused substances in Iran. Understanding the relationship between unhealthy drug use and clinical outcomes is essential due to its public health implications. Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the effect of opium addiction on serum glucose and lipid profiles in diabetic patients with acute coronary syndromes (ACS). Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 99 diabetic patients with ACS were examined. Demographic characteristics and laboratory parameters including hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), fasting blood sugar (FBS), total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein (HDL), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), and triglycerides (TG) were recorded. Patients were divided into two groups: Those who used opium and those who did not. All variables were compared between the two groups. Data analysis was performed using SPSS version 18. Results: The mean age of patients in the opium and non-opium groups was 47.4 ± 11.01 and 47.5 ± 11.12 years, respectively. There was no significant difference between the groups in terms of serum glucose levels (P > 0.05). Additionally, no significant difference was found in TG, total cholesterol, LDL, and HDL between patients who used opium and those who did not (P > 0.05). Conclusions: This study found that opium use did not have any positive or negative effect on serum glucose levels or lipid profiles in diabetic patients with ACS. Therefore, our results cannot be generalized with certainty.

Published: September 2024

Background: Methadone-induced sexual dysfunction in men can significantly impair their quality of life and reduce methadone adherence, thereby interfering with its therapeutic benefits. Objectives: This study aimed to compare the effects of bupropion and amantadine on reducing sexual dysfunction in methadone-dependent males. Methods: This clinical trial included 47 methadone-dependent males attending the Addiction Treatment Center in Babol, Iran. Participants were randomly assigned to either the amantadine group (n = 23) or the bupropion group (n = 24). Demographic data and addiction history were collected using a checklist, and sexual dysfunction was assessed with the International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF) Questionnaire before and after the intervention. Paired t-tests, independent t-tests, and chi-squared tests were used to compare the two groups. Results: Both groups had similar demographic variables and sexual function scores before the intervention (P > 0.05). However, there was a significant difference between the two groups in terms of total sexual dysfunction scores (52.13 ± 13.07 for bupropion vs. 60.79 ± 4.47 for amantadine; P = 0.006). Additionally, significant differences were observed in sexual desire (P = 0.003), satisfaction with intercourse (P = 0.001), and overall satisfaction (P = 0.034), with higher scores in the bupropion group. Adverse medication-related effects were less prevalent in the bupropion group (54.2%) compared to the amantadine group (60.9%). Conclusions: Bupropion appears to be more effective in improving sexual function in methadone-dependent males undergoing methadone treatment, with patients in the bupropion group achieving better scores than those in the amantadine group. Additionally, the occurrence of adverse effects was lower in the bupropion group compared to the amantadine group.

Published: September 2024

Background: COVID-19 vaccination rates among individuals with mental illness have raised concerns due to these individuals' increased vulnerability to infection and complications. Objectives: This study aimed to compare the frequency of COVID-19 vaccination between individuals with chronic psychiatric conditions and the general population. Methods: A descriptive-analytical study was conducted, including patients with psychiatric disorders and a comparison group without psychiatric problems. Data were collected between May 2023 and August 2023 using a simple random sampling method. Participants were diagnosed with psychiatric disorders according to DSM-5 criteria and completed a questionnaire. Results: In a study of 137 participants, including 67 healthy individuals, 38 with schizophrenia, and 32 with affective disorders, psychiatric patients had lower full vaccination rates (P < 0.001). Patients with schizophrenia received fewer doses than healthy individuals and those with affective disorders (coefficient = -0.54, P = 0.007). Even after adjusting for demographics, the relationship between schizophrenia and vaccination rates remained significant. Conclusions: Chronic psychiatric patients have lower COVID-19 vaccination rates compared to the general population. Targeted vaccination programs and improved access to psychiatric healthcare facilities are crucial for addressing the pandemic's disproportionate impact on this vulnerable group.

Published: September 2024

Background: Health-promoting environments are a key focus of the Ottawa Strategic Charter, which aims to enhance health in the workplace and reduce unhealthy behaviors among employees. Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of health-promoting interventions on the habits of university staff in Southeastern Iran. Methods: This semi-experimental study was conducted from 2020 to 2021 in Zahedan, Southeastern Iran. A total of 254 administrative staff from the University of Medical Sciences and Sistan & Balochistan University were selected using available randomized methods and divided into control and intervention groups. The study instrument was a researcher-designed questionnaire, which demonstrated a content validity ratio (CVR) of 0.8, a Content Validity Index (CVI) ranging from 0.83 to 0.97, and an internal consistency with a Cronbach's alpha of 0.85. The questionnaire was distributed online via the Porsline platform. For the intervention, training sessions were conducted online, and the session files and training booklet were made available to intervention group staff through the university's education system. A post-test was administered one month after the pretest. Data were analyzed using SPSS 21 software, with pretest results adjusted using chi-square and ANCOVA statistical tests. Results: The study found that the mean age of participants was 40.5 ± 7.4 years. Scores for employee knowledge, attitude, and behavior were 80.0 ± 16.4, 86.6 ± 22.8, and 80.8 ± 17.6, respectively. The most significant factors influencing attitudes were education (P < 0.001) and health status (P = 0.001). Type of employment (P = 0.025), work experience (P = 0.017), and health status (P = 0.037) were also significantly associated with behavior. After adjusting for pretest results, there were significant differences between the intervention and control groups in terms of scores for knowledge, attitude, and behavior (P < 0.001). Conclusions: The study concluded that employees with correct attitudes and healthy behaviors reported better health outcomes. Additionally, educational interventions effectively improved staff knowledge, attitudes, and behavior. To enhance health status, reduce employee disability, decrease absenteeism, and increase organizational productivity, it is recommended to plan and implement workplace health promotion programs focused on employees.

Authors: Chowdhury ATM Morsalin , bin Ahsan Wahid
Published: September 2024

This mixed-methods study examines the impact of social media use on body image and mental health among Bangladeshi youth, focusing on gender and age differences. Platforms like Instagram and Snapchat significantly contribute to body dissatisfaction, particularly among females aged 15-18. The findings reveal a strong correlation between increased social media use, heightened self-comparison, reduced self-esteem, and mental health challenges, including anxiety and depression. Peer pressure, social comparison, and negative online interactions further intensify these effects. To address these issues, the study advocates for media literacy programs to help youth critically engage with social media, body positivity campaigns to challenge unrealistic beauty standards, and family engagement to foster supportive environments. These interventions aim to promote critical social media engagement and resilience in youth, ultimately improving their mental well-being in Bangladesh.

Genetic improvement and conservation of goats in tropic
Authors: P K Rout
Published: September 2024

Goats indeed have a significant historical and contemporary importance in human civilization, particularly in the realm of agriculture and food production. Their adaptability and widespread distribution have made them crucial for various societies across the world. Goats have played a central role in the Neolithic agricultural revolution, aiding in the spread of human civilization globally. Their adaptability allowed them to thrive in diverse environments, contributing to the sustenance and expansion of human settlements. Goats are highly adaptable and are found in a wide range of geographical regions. Their presence spans across continents, from tropical to temperate climates, showcasing their ability to thrive in various environmental conditions. There is diversity in the production performance of goats based on the region of the world and the specific breeds. Genetic improvement programs aim to enhance economically important traits such as milk production, growth rates and fiber production, thereby increasing productivity and income for goat farmers. Understanding the genetic parameters such as heritabilities and repeatabilities for various traits is crucial for designing effective breeding programs. These parameters provide insights into the genetic potential of goats for traits like milk production, growth and fiber quality. Heritability estimates for reproductive traits, body weight, daily gain and direct and maternal heritability are important for implementing selective breeding strategies aimed at improving overall productivity and efficiency in goat farming. Genetic improvement programs have been implemented in tropical environments to enhance milk production traits in goats. Genetic improvements have also targeted fiber production in goats, with a focus on traits such as grease fleece weight and average fiber diameter. These efforts aim to enhance the quality and quantity of fiber produced by goats for various commercial purposes. Despite the importance of conserving goat breeds with unique characteristics, planned conservation programs in tropical regions are often neglected. It’s emphasized that preserving indigenous goat breeds in their native habitats is essential for maintaining genetic diversity and ensuring future resilience in goat farming.

THE EMERGENCE OF DAY OF THE WEEK EFFECT IN THE INDIAN NIFTY ENERGY SECTOR: ANALYSIS AND INTERPRETATIONS
Authors: Sanganeria Drishti , Maheswari Raghav
Published: September 2024

This study delves into the presence and evolution of the day-of-the-week effect within the Indian NIFTY Energy Sectoral Index.  Employing a comprehensive dataset of daily returns spanning the years 2005 to 2023, the analysis is segmented into two distinct time periods: 2005-2015 and 2016-2023.  This segmentation allows for a granular examination of potential shifts in the nature or intensity of calendar anomalies within this market segment.
Findings from the initial period (2005-2015) reveal the absence of statistically significant day of-the-week effects. This aligns with certain strands of existing research that suggest calendar anomalies might be less prevalent in specific market segments or may experience periods of dormancy. However, the second time period (2016-2023) presents a compelling departure from this pattern, highlighting the dynamic landscape of financial markets.  A statistically significant (p-value 0.05) and persistent anomaly arises, with Tuesdays consistently demonstrating the highest average daily returns within the NIFTY Energy Sector. This observation challenges traditional notions of day-of-the-week effects and necessitates a nuanced exploration of its potential drivers.

The current study was conducted to explore the level of physical abuse faced by adolescents with hearing impairment. A correlation research design was used. The population for this study comprised the students of (grades 5th-10th) age range (12-18) studying in special education schools and centers of the Gujranwala division. A sample of 350 adolescents with hearing impairment (male 186, female 164) was selected using stratified random sampling for this study. ICAST-1 scale was developed by ISPCAN (2015) for physical abuse and was used for data collection 19 items were selected for physical abuse and validated their content validity by experts. The scale was translated into Urdu and validated by the Urdu language experts. Data was analyzed by reporting frequencies and levels of physical abuse. The findings of this study indicate that almost 90% of the adolescents with hearing impairment were facing moderate levels of physical abuse. The majority face moderate physical abuse in the form of being put in time out, shaken aggressively, pinched to cause pain, locked up or restricted movement, kicking, crushed fingers, and threats with a knife/to hurt or kill you as punishment. We need to reconsider the myth of using punishment to improve children's learning and behavior.

Published: September 2024

The qualitative composition of the ripe fruits of strawberry (hybrid variety- Alba) was examined on growing areas in Glumova (open field) and Shishova (in greenhouse conditions) in the municipality of Saraj- Skopje, with some different agrochemical characteristics, i.e. in Glumova the average total nitrogen values of 0.182% and potassium (K2O) 29.50mg/100g soil were significantly higher than those found in Shishova (0.116% and 20.24mg/100g soil). In ripe strawberry fruits, the amounts of total sugars, ascorbic acid (vitamin C), total nitrogen and potassium found were significantly dependent on the agrochemical properties and the method of their cultivation. In strawberry fruits grown in greenhouse conditions (Shishova), the amount of total sugars 3.68%, ascorbic acid (64.57 mg/100g FW), total nitrogen 9.10 mg/g-1 DM and potassium (K) 1.64 % in DM were significantly lower in relation to the average values found in strawberry samples grown in an open field (Glumova).
La coherente inexistencia de votos particulares en el Tribunal de Justicia de la Unión Europea
Authors: Fierro Rodríguez Diego
Published: September 2024

En este trabajo se aborda la ausencia de votos particulares en el Tribunal de Justicia de la Unión Europea. Se argumenta que esta característica distingue al Tribunal de Justicia de la Unión Europea de otros tribunales importantes y se destacan varios fundamentos para esta práctica. Se menciona que la cohesión y la uniformidad en la interpretación y aplicación del Derecho de la Unión Europea son cruciales, y que permitir votos disidentes podría socavar esta cohesión y debilitar la autoridad del Tribunal de Justicia de la Unión Europea. Además, se señala que la función cuasilegislativa del Tribunal de Justicia de la Unión Europea y la diversidad de sus jueces también respaldan la exclusión de votos particulares. Aunque algunos defienden que la divergencia enriquece el debate jurídico, en el contexto de la Unión Europea, se considera prioritario mantener la unanimidad en las decisiones del Tribunal de Justicia de la Unión Europea para garantizar la estabilidad y la eficacia del sistema legal europeo.

Can Entrepreneurial Marketing Provide an Economic Moat for Small and Emerging Firms?
Authors: Volker John , Phillips Michael
Published: September 2024

This study explores the economic moat concept, which has become increasingly relevant to modern-day businesses seeking a sustainable competitive advantage. Drawing upon Porter's Five Forces Model, we investigate the potential for economic moats in small companies and emerging entrepreneurial firms. By analyzing examples of narrow economic moats in small firms, we provide insights into the strategies that may help these firms build and maintain a competitive advantage in their respective markets. Our findings suggest that entrepreneurial firms can leverage various sources of competitive advantages, such as customer loyalty, low-cost structures, and network effects, to create narrow economic moats that protect against competitive threats. Case studies of Andy’s Hobby Headquarters and Laura Farms illustrate how small firms can successfully cultivate narrow economic moats aligned with Porter’s Forces. Andy’s strategic evolution from a local hobby shop to a national and international destination, coupled with a strong online presence and community engagement, demonstrates how management actions can foster customer loyalty and differentiation. Similarly, Laura Farms leverages social media to project company values and create emotional ties with viewers, establishing a narrow economic moat. This paper offers practical insights for entrepreneurs and small business owners seeking long-term success in today's highly competitive business environment. Finally, it concludes that deliberate management strategies, particularly in marketing, can facilitate the development of economic moats within competitive environments and substitution pressures. By adjusting traditional definitions of economic moats to accommodate the rapid pace of entrepreneurship, it advocates for further research into the relationship between economic moats and sustained profitability among entrepreneurial ventures.
Global Perpectives on Water Management: An Overview of Actions Steps from the United Nations to Local Communities
Authors: McVicker Elizabeth
Published: September 2024

Water scarcity is a worldwide reality; people across the globe now experience the impacts of an excess of water demand over available supply every day. Pressure on water is rising, and action is urgent (UN HLP, 2018, UN SDG Summit 2023, 2023). The United Nations (UN) and the United Nations Educational Scientific & Cultural Organization (UNESCO) have been focused on water scarcity since 1977, when they created an Action Plan on “Community Water Supply,” declaring that everyone has the right to access drinking water to meet their basic needs (UN, 2018). Since then, the UN has declared the decade of 2018-2028 as a “Decade for Action” on “Water for Sustainable Development (UN, 2018).” The recommendations from this international body of 193 member countries call for all stakeholders to be involved in creating responses to the challenges of water scarcity—not only governments and international organizations but universities, private organizations, farmers, and all citizens. Concomitantly, the World Economic Forum is working to foment public-private partnerships around the world to close the gap between water demand and water supply. This article presents an overview of some of the “action steps” being taken by these organizations, as well as some examples from universities to local organizations with ties to agriculture and water use.
What Next? An Exploration of Entrepreneurs' Post-Failure Career Behavior
Authors: Crews Marcus , Li Yuanyuan
Published: September 2024

Business failure may be a challenging experience for many entrepreneurs, yet entrepreneurs continue to engage in venture creation and development. The present study integrates Social Cognitive Career Theory (SCCT) with recent theoretical and empirical insights on habitual entrepreneurship to explain and predict how past performance shapes entrepreneurs’ subsequent career-related cognitions and behavior. Leveraging a novel cross-national dataset of 2,093 experienced entrepreneurs in Latin America, this study found that compared to experienced entrepreneurs without prior failure, failed entrepreneurs are more likely to start new businesses. The study also found, counter to expectations, that the likelihood of entering paid employment decreases, rather than increases, after a venture failure. The study concludes by considering the implications of these findings and suggesting avenues for future research.
HOHENSTAUFENLİ KONRADIN’İN SİCİLYA MÜCADELESİ: TAGLIACOZZO SAVAŞI
Authors: Üstün Ergun
Published: September 2024

Hohenstaufenli II. Friedrich döneminde Sicilya Krallığı, Papalığın İtalya’daki siyasi gücünü ve topraklarını tehdit eden en önemli düşmanı konumundaydı. Bu durum Hohenstaufenler ile Papalık arasında sınır tanımayan bir hâkimiyet mücadelesinin başlamasına neden olmuştur. II. Friedrich 1250 yılında ölünce, Hohenstaufenler ile Papalık arasında yaşanan mücadele yeni bir boyut kazanmıştır. Sicilya’da Hohenstaufenlerin tamamen kökünü kazımayı aklına koymuş olan Papalık, bu amacını gerçekleştirmek için Fransa Kralı IX. Louis’in kardeşi Anjou’lu Charles ile bir ittifak meydana getirmiştir. Bu çalışmada Sicilya Kralı Hohenstaufenli II. Friedrich’in torunu olan Konradin’in hayatı ve Sicilya Krallığı tahtı üzerindeki hak iddiasını sürdürmek için Anjou’lu Charles’a karşı gerçekleştirdiği Tagliacozzo Savaşı mücadelesi ele alınacaktır. İlgili konu hakkında elde edilen ana kaynaklar ile araştırma eserler karşılaştırılarak tenkit edilmiş ve tespit edilen bulgular ışığında konu ele alınıp tartışılmıştır. Bununla birlikte ele alınan konu hakkında ülkemizde daha önce yapılmış herhangi bir özgün çalışmanın olmayışı, bu makalenin ilgili alandaki literatüre önemli bir katkı sağlayacağı düşünülmektedir.
MORALIZADE VASSAF KADRİ’NİN HİNT YILDIZI ESERİNDEKİ SÖMÜRGECİLİK VE ULUSAL BAĞIMSIZLIK HAREKETLERİ
Authors: Gümüş Ersoy
Published: September 2024

Bu çalışma, kökenleri Balkanlara dayanan ancak İstanbul’da doğan Moralızade Vassaf Kadri’nin 1915 taihli romanı Hint Yıldızı’nda yansıtıldığı şekliyle sömürgeci güçlerin pratikleri ve yerel halkın verdiği dekolonizasyon mücadelesi üzerine yoğunlaşan bir okumadır. Özünde bir şiddet praksisi olan sömürgecilik, hâkim olduğu topraklardaki doğal zenginliklerin yanı sıra yerel halkı sömürmeyi amaçlar. Bunun yanı sıra sömürgeci güçler baskılarını daim kılmak ve olası başkaldırıları engellemek maksadıyla yerel kültürü, milli ve manevi değerleri yok edip kendi düşünce sistemlerini ve değer yargılarını yerleştirmeyi ve yaygınlaştırmayı amaçlar. Bu bağlamda Moralızade Vassaf Kadri İngiliz sömürgecilerin alt kıtada uyguladıkları fiziksel, psikolojik ve kültürel tahakkümleri anlattığı romanında genel bir sömürgecilik resmi çizer. Bunun yanı sıra uzun yıllar İngiliz boyunduruğunda bulunan Hint halkı ulusal bağımsızlığını kazanmak adına ayağa kalkar ve bütün kimliksel farklılıklarından arınarak dekolonizasyon mücadalesi başlatır. Bu çalışma, Hint Yıldızı’nın bir yandan sömürgeci tahakkümün farklı boyutlarda şiddete dayanan uygulamalarını diğer yandansa sömürge halkının sömürgeci şiddetine karşı daha büyük bir şiddetle başkaldırarak verdiği bağımsızlık mücadelesini Frantz Fanon, Aime Cesaire ve Albert Memmi gibi eleştirmenlere göndermeler yaparak incelediğini iddia eder.
Phármakon equivocado para diagnósticos imprecisos.O exemplo da depressão em pacientes com dor crônica
Authors: Consentino Solano João Paulo
Published: September 2024

O autor apresenta a experiência de um psiquiatra num ambulatório de pacientes com dor crônica. A maioria dos pacientes foi encaminhada à consulta psiquiátrica devido à suspeita de um quadro de depressão que merecia tratamento farmacológico, bem como ao quadro álgico já em tratamento com anestesiologistas especialistas em dor. A avaliação psiquiátrica revelou que apenas dois entre 65 pacientes tinham quadro de depressão. Na maior parte dos casos, eram traços ou transtornos de personalidade que pareciam explicar a dor e/ou sua perpetuação. Traços e transtornos de personalidade têm servido como variável de confusão no debate etiológico entre a depressão e a dor crônica. O autor apresenta um modelo conceitual em que não há precedência significativa entre as duas condições; em vez disto, traços e transtornos de personalidade predispõem ao aparecimento de ambos: um fenótipo depressivo (que não corresponde à doença depressiva) e a dor crônica. A intervenção farmacológica antidepressiva foi inócua nesses pacientes.
O arcaico do caráter e a clínica contemporânea. Reflexões a partir de O eu e o isso
Authors: Cassorla Roosevelt
Published: September 2024

O autor discute alguns aspectos de O eu e o isso 100 anos depois de sua publicação e os relaciona com a teoria e a prática contemporâneas da psicanálise. Após apresentar as principais características da psicanálise contemporânea, trata de aspectos ligados ao início do funcionamento mental, enfatizando os déficits de representação, o inconsciente não reprimido e a impossibilidade de sonhar. Em seguida, estuda o arcaico do caráter, constatando que sua constituição resulta de fatores filogenéticose transgeracionais e de inscrições primitivas. Esse caráter, específico de cada indivíduo (como uma impressão digital), é o terreno onde vão se instalar os processos neuróticos, psicóticos, perversos e os próprios transtornos do caráter. O autor discuteabordagens de Freud e Green sobre o caráter, enfatizando a segunda tópica de O eu eo isso. Na sequência, mostra a utilidade desse conceito para compreender fenômenosque se manifestam no campo analítico através de comportamentos espontâneos, diferentes de ações pensadas ou atos descarregados. Aprofunda essas ideias com basenum material clínico em que a simbolização deficitária estimula comportamentoscaracterológicos que se manifestam por meio de conluios que defendem a dupla analítica da percepção traumática da triangularidade.
De Freud a Bion. Bissexualidade psíquica e humanidade
Authors: da Cruz Lucas Macedo Gabriela Lara
Published: September 2024

A autora centra-se na noção de bissexualidade psíquica desenvolvida por Freud como um conceito não só fundamental para pensar a constituição de nossa identidade sexual, mas também fundante de nossa condição humana, na medida em que sustenta que a bissexualidade e suas vertentes indissociáveis, a masculinidade e a feminilidade, se relacionam à origem do psiquismo e estão no cerne do funcionamento mental e do encontro entre as mentes. Para essa travessia, isto é, da sexualidade à arquitetura da mente, convida Wilfred Bion e seus conceitos de continente/contido, representados pelos símbolos ♀♂. Autores pós-bionianos oferecem a reflexão de que masculinidade ↔ feminilidade coexistem no psiquismo em constante relação, representadas por uma espécie de coito fértil, que daria origem aos nossos pensamentos-filhos e à nossa condição humana, sempre atravessada pelo sexual.
Porque existo
Authors: Salles Godoy de Souza Soares Sylvia
Published: September 2024

Neste artigo, a autora põe em cena a experiência clínica de mulheres em diferentes fases do envelhecimento. É relevante a distinção das angústias da envelhescência, que é um processo que se inicia ao redor dos 50 anos, marcado pela menopausa e pelo subsequente medo da perda da feminilidade, e que perdura ad infinitum na velhice, quando acontecem as perdas reais, das funções do corpo e das imagens ligadas a ele, além de perdas concretas dos objetos amorosos: pais, familiares, amigos… O tempo, a memória, as lembranças podem divergir, mas a solidão é a mesma em todos os casos expostos. Angústias, sonhos, pesadelos podem demudar ficção em realidade, ou vice-versa. Imperativa é a mudança de hábitos em função das mudanças do corpo. Entretanto, o eu do sujeito idoso mostra uma espantosa renovação de interesses. Freud assinala que a criança brinca no mesmo grau que o adulto sonha, devaneia. À medida que o tempo passa, ele descobre novas formas de viver, ou melhor, de saber viver.
Experiência emocional no campo analítico. Teoria e clínica
Authors: L. Rocha Barros Elizabeth
Published: September 2024

O termo experiência emocional é de difícil definição. A autora adota a definição de conhecimento direto, intuitivo, imediato que temos dos fatos ou fenômenos. Alguns autores só consideram haver uma experiência de fato quando, e somente quando, ela está associada à vivência de um sentido, no contexto de uma relação. Inicialmente o trabalho é ilustrado com a discussão de uma obra de arte, antes e depois de haver uma expansão de conhecimento sobre ela, e a seguir com a consideração de uma situação clínica. A autora recorre ao conceito de insight ostensivo e a reflexões de Fédida.
Os adoecimentos psíquicos por ativação e por passivação na escuta psicanalítica “em camadas” de Harry Guntrip
Authors: Meyer B. Gradin Adriana
Published: September 2024

Neste artigo, a autora aborda novas perspectivas sobre a escuta psicanalítica “em camadas” dos movimentos ativos e das defesas passivas do psiquismo, à luz dos dois tempos de análise de Harry Guntrip, que incluem uma escuta dedicada às questões edípicas e às defesas ativas, bem como aos traumatismos precoces. Procura articular essa escuta “em camadas” com a teoria sobre os adoecimentos psíquicos por ativação e por passivação, de Luís Claudio Figueiredo e Nelson Coelho Junior. Por fim, reflete sobre a posição do analista e a extensão dos resultados obtidos nessa modalidade de escuta clínica.
Exigências éticas da clínica ao debate público entre psicanálise e ciência. Sobre alguns resultados de uma pesquisa em zona de interface
Authors: Lage Leite Rodrigo , Belo Diniz Juliana
Published: September 2024

Em diferentes momentos de sua história, a psicanálise é interpelada no debate público com relação à sua cientificidade. Neste artigo, os autores apresentam, por meio da observação de alguns resultados de uma pesquisa na zona de interface entre psicanálise, psiquiatria e medicina, uma reflexão sobre o que se considerou como exigências éticas da clínica a esse debate, e sobre como a desconsideração de elementos provenientes dela (inclusão da singularidade e do descentramento do inconsciente) pode produzir vieses, equívocos e desvios éticos.
O elefante na sala da psicanálise e o exercício de cientificidade
Authors: Orquiza de Carvalho Vitor , Galletti Ferretti Marcelo
Published: September 2024

Neste artigo, os autores se dedicam a duas tarefas. A primeira é mostrar que o problema da cientificidade da psicanálise é um “elefante na sala”: um problema evidente e, ao mesmo tempo, deliberadamente ignorado, embora não devesse ser. Propõem, portanto, que esse “elefante” seja encarado de frente. A segunda tarefa é defender que a concepção freudiana de ciência deu origem a três atitudes distintas: a continuidade, que alinha certos modos de pensamento às diretrizes centrais do modelo argumentativo freudiano; a complementaridade, que busca integrar ou fundir esse modelo com outros campos do conhecimento; e a superação, que busca em outros campos uma refundação do solo epistemológico da psicanálise. Assim, os autores indicam essas atitudes com o objetivo de mostrar que o problema da cientificidade acompanhou a psicanálise desde sua fundação.
