Mišljenja nastavnika glazbenih škola o čimbenicima uspješnosti učenika u glazbenom obrazovanju
Authors: Nikolić Lidija , Šenk Gergorić Ivana , Berać-Jozić Marija
Published: January 2025

Cilj je ovoga istraživanja utvrditi koji su čimbenici uspješnosti učenika u glazbenim školama te načine na koje bi se podržala i potpomogla uspješnost učenika u osnovnoj i srednjoj glazbenoj školi u Republici Hrvatskoj. Istraživanje je provedeno anketiranjem nastavnika glazbe (N=153) zaposlenih u osnovnim i srednjim glazbenim školama u 38 gradova i općina u Hrvatskoj. Rezultati istraživanja pokazali su kako se učenici upisuju u glazbenu školu najčešće jer žele učiti svirati ili pjevati, zatim na poticaj roditelja ili iz radoznalosti, a manje izraženi motivi upisivanja su ljubav prema glazbi i utjecaj vršnjaka koji idu u glazbenu školu. Nastavnici koji rade u glazbenim školama u Hrvatskoj misle kako su najvažniji čimbenici uspješnosti učenika u glazbenom obrazovanju podrška roditelja i obitelji, kvalitetna komunikacija nastavnika i učenika te količina i kvaliteta samostalnog vježbanja učenika.
Odrednice interkulturalne osjetljivosti studenata učiteljskih studija
Authors: Jurković Denis , Buterin Mičić Marija
Published: January 2025

Suvremena društva sve su kulturno pluralnija i sve više pojedinaca dolazi u kontakt s drugim kulturama. Ti susreti različitih kultura ne rezultiraju uvijek uzajamnim razumijevanjem i prihvaćanjem. U tom kontekstu prepoznata je važnost poticanja i razvoja interkulturalne osjetljivosti kao jednog od temeljnih zadataka (budućih) učitelja u suvremenoj školi, a što pretpostavlja da su i sami interkulturalno osjetljivi te da tu osjetljivost iskazuju. Polazeći od navedenog, cilj ovog istraživanja bio je ispitati u kojoj mjeri multikulturalna iskustva i određena sociodemografska obilježja budućih učitelja doprinose objašnjenju njihove interkulturalne osjetljivosti. U istraživanju je sudjelovalo 630 studenata svih učiteljskih studija u Republici Hrvatskoj. Od istraživačkih instrumenta korišteni su: upitnik sociodemografskih podataka, Skala interkulturalne osjetljivosti (Chen i Starosta, 2000) te modificirani Upitnik multikulturalnog iskustva (Narvaez et al., 2017). Rezultati istraživanja ukazuju na to da određena sociodemografska obilježja i multikulturalna iskustva značajno doprinose razini interkulturalne osjetljivosti budućih učitelja. Uz razmatranje uloge interkulturalne osjetljivosti i multikulturalnih iskustava u afirmaciji interkulturalnog odgoja i obrazovanja u školi, polazeći od dobivenih rezultata istraživanja u radu se također navode implikacije za inicijalno obrazovanje učitelja te preporuke za buduća istraživanja.
Fonemska verbalna fluentnost kod osoba nakon traumatske ozljede mozga
Authors: Tršinski Dubravko , Tadinac Meri
Published: January 2025

Cilj: U rehabilitacijskoj se literaturi neuropsihološki testovi navode kao mjere oštećenja kognitivnih funkcija. Njihova je prednost to što su objektivniji od globalnih i funkcionalnih mjera, ali navode se i česte metodološke teškoće testiranja nakon traumatske ozljede mozga (TOM), jedna od kojih je prijevod i adaptacija testova. Stoga su, nakon prijevoda i adaptacije Bentonova Testa kontroliranih asocijacija (COWA) iz MAE baterije, s posebnim dopuštenjem nakladnika Psychological Assessment Resources, ciljevi bili 1. ispitati povezanost rezultata na COWA testu sa spolom i obrazovanjem; i 2. ispitati konkurentnu i prediktivnu valjanost COWA kod pacijenata na rehabilitaciji nakon TOM. Materijal i metode: Primijenili smo COWA na uzorku zdravih sudionika (N = 60) različitih po obrazovanju i spolu te uzorku pacijenata (N = 91) na otpustu s bolničke rehabilitacije nakon TOM. Rezultate COWA testa i drugih neuropsiholoških testova usporedili smo s procjenama na Mjeri funkcionalne neovisnosti (FIM) pri otpustu s rehabilitacije i Upitnikom uključenosti u zajednicu (CIQ) godinu dana nakon TOM. Rezultati i rasprava: Rezultati zdravih sudionika pokazali su usporedivost hrvatskog prijevoda s podacima iz originalne literature. Utvrdili smo zadovoljavajuće pokazatelje unutarnje konzistencije za oba oblika COWA testa te statistički značajnu povezanost rezultata s obrazovanjem. U skupini sudionika s TOM COWT je pokazao najvišu povezanost s česticama izražavanja i razumijevanja govora u FIM-u kod otpusta s rehabilitacije te umjereno visoku povezanost s rezultatom na CIQ-u, godinu dana nakon TOM.
Razvoj studija psihologije na Filozofskom fakultetu Sveučilišta u Zagrebu
Authors: Ljubotina Damir , Kuterovac Jagodić Gordana
Published: January 2025

Pojava i razvoj znanstvene psihologije i sveučilišnih studija psihologije u Hrvatskoj povezani su s počecima nastave psihologije na Filozofskom fakultetu u Zagrebu. Ta povijest zajednička je svim psiholozima u Hrvatskoj. O povijesti psihologije u Hrvatskoj napisan je veći broj tekstova stoga smo se u ovom članku odlučili usmjeriti na osobe i događaje vezane uz okolnosti koje su prethodile pokretanju studija na Filozofskom fakultetu u Zagrebu i pojedinim fazama njegova razvoja, uz nastojanje da pridodamo i neke manje poznate činjenice iz ranijeg razdoblja razvoja studija. Ovaj pregled okvirno se može razdijeliti u četiri kronološka razdoblja. Prvo razdoblje obuhvaća vrijeme do osnivanja prve Katedre za psihologiju osnovane na Filozofskom fakultetu 1929. godine, tijekom kojega se stvaraju pretpostavke za odvajanje studija psihologije iz okrilja filozofije i oblikovanje psihologije kao samostalne discipline. Drugo razdoblje obilježavaju djelovanje Ramira Bujasa od 1929. godine do umirovljenja 1949. godine i njegovi ustrajni napori na razvoju Katedre i samostalnog studija psihologije. Treće razdoblje obuhvaća rad Zorana Bujasa na ustrojavanju Odsjeka za psihologiju i oblikovanju studija psihologije do početka osamdesetih i njegov odlazak u mirovinu 1981. godine. Posljednje razdoblje obuhvaća vrijeme od sredine 1980-ih do danas, koje obilježava značajno povećanje broja nastavnika i studenata te otvaranje novih područja obrazovanja i istraživanja, osobito primijenjene psihologije.
Emocija gađenja u moralnoj domeni i učestalost povreda studentskih prava i obveza
Authors: Galić Ana , Rački Željko
Published: January 2025

Cilj je ovoga istraživanja ispitati odnose emocije gađenja u moralnoj domeni i učestalosti povreda prava i obveza u studentica. U istraživanju su dobrovoljno i anonimno sudjelovale studentice 3. i 4. godine petogodišnjega učiteljskoga studija (N = 64). Korišteni su subskala gađenja u moralnoj domeni i njoj sukladne mjere, za potrebe ovoga istraživanja sastavljen inventar lakših i teških povreda studentskih prava i obveza u skladu s postojećim pravnim aktom te skup pitanja o obilježjima uzorka (prosjek ocjena, dob, materijalni status i završena srednja škola). Rezultati hijerarhijske linearne regresijske analize potvrđuju prediktivnu valjanost i statistički značajnu negativnu povezanost emocije gađenja prema lakšim i teškim povredama s učestalošću ukupnoga sudjelovanja studenata u takvim eksplicitno i pravnim aktom definiranim povredama prava i obveza (npr. varanje na ispitu, obmanjivanje, krivotvorenje potpisa i dokumenata itd.). Petina se varijance razlika (21,22 %; R = 0,461) u učestalosti svih vrsta povreda može objasniti: a) razlikama studenata u (većem) gađenju prema takvom ponašanju (15,70 %; β = -0.38, p < 0,01) i b) dodatnim, samostalnim doprinosom (višega) prosječnoga ukupnoga dosadašnjega studijskog uspjeha (5,52 %; β = -0,24, p < 0,05). S obzirom na to da se radi o vrlo specifičnoj skupini sudionica—budućim učiteljicama sukcesivnih naraštaja djece u srednjem djetinjstvu—rezultati su interpretirani u skladu s utjecajem osobne sklonosti kršenju prava i obveza te kontinuiteta i stabilnosti u interindividualnim razlikama u ličnosti i njezinu odgojnom utjecaju na druge.
Cosmological cutting rules for Bogoliubov initial states
Authors: Ghosh Diptimoy , Pajer Enrico , Ullah Farman
Published: January 2025

The field theoretic wavefunction in cosmological spacetimes has received much attention as a fundamental object underlying the generation of primordial perturbations in our universe. Assuming an initial Bunch-Davies state, unitary time evolution implies an infinite set of cutting rules for the wavefunction to all orders in perturbation theory, collectively known as the cosmological optical theorem. In this work, we generalise these results to the case of Bogoliubov initial states, accounting for both parity-even and parity-odd interactions. We confirm our findings in a few explicit examples, assuming IR-finite interactions. In these examples, we preserve scale invariance by adiabatically turning on interactions in the infinite past rather than imposing a Bogoliubov state at some finite initial time. Finally, we give a prescription for computing Bogoliubov wavefunction coefficients from the corresponding Bunch-Davies coefficients for both nn-point contact and four-point exchange diagrams.
Chitosan Pretreatment: Evidence of Enhanced Mechanical Stability and Adsorption Capacity to Produce a Hybrid Material
Authors: G. G. Rodrigues Sueslley , S. Lopes Gisele , Longhinotti Elisane , C. N. Diógenes Izaura
Published: January 2025

Securing a food supply is a global issue that must be integrated into a sustainable framework to
mitigate the effects of climate change. This study focuses on the synthesis of a hybrid material for
detecting heterocyclic aromatic amines (HAAs), which are potential mutagenic and carcinogenic
compounds generated during the heat processing of food. A novel approach was applied to produce
films based on chitosan biopolymer incorporated with [Fe(CN)5(OH2)]3−, CS-Fe, which functions
as the active moiety for the detection of quinoxaline (IQx), a molecule similar to HAAs. The
pretreatment of the chitosan (CS) films significantly improved mechanical stability and more
than doubled the adsorption capacity for [Fe(CN)5(OH2)]3−. The measurements from real samples
indicated that the CS-Fe film can selectively detect IQx, even amidst common interfering amino
acids like methionine, tryptophan, and histidine. In summary, the CS-Fe film may be regarded as
an eco-friendly and cost-effective material suitable for food safety applications.
AGROBIODIVERSIDADE E A CULTURA EM TERRITÓRIO QUILOMBOLA NOS MUNICÍPIOS DE TAVARES E MOSTARDAS NO RS
Authors: Martha Anderson
Published: January 2025

O objetivo desse trabalho foi avaliar questão quilombola vem sendo debatida há tempos o qual se vez inúmeros trabalhos sobre o território negro e sua forma de resistência, mas pouco sobre a cultura da manutenção de suas sementes crioulas e seus significados, suas estratégias desenvolvidas para manter sua autonomia, não unicamente econômica, mas também pela tomada de decisões, pelas cosmovissões que suas sementes transmitem aos seus agricultores. O termo agricultores (as) guardiões (ãs) de sementes crioulas é uma vertente questionadora do modelo dominante valorizando e re-significando o valor da semente crioula. Nesse sentido, as famílias guardiãs quilombolas, dotados de uma rica diversidade cultural manipulam de forma diferenciadas um número considerável de sementes crioulas o que vem possibilitando a manutenção uso e valorização de diferentes espécies e variedades de sementes.

Published: January 2025

O objetivo deste artigo é discutir o Estado na perspectiva de Nicos Poulantzas, considerando nosso intuito de compreender a configuração desta instância mediadora da vida social e seus desdobramentos entre os anos de 2018 e 2021 no decorrer do processo de revisão do Plano Diretor do município de Londrina, localizado no Sul do Brasil. Verificou-se uma conjuntura com acirrada disputa política, econômica e social em meio a realidade do processo de revisão do Plano Diretor, com forte presença da classe dominante na escala local e fraca participação da classe popular.  Conclui-se que a ação do Estado e seus elementos junto ao processo de planejamento urbano participativo, no caso da revisão do Plano Diretor Participativo do Município de Londrina (2018 – 2028), foi ao encontro da classe de maior poder aquisitivo e não atendeu os anseios coletivos da população, sendo essa última fracamente representada nos fóruns de participação popular.

OBSERVACIONES ECOLÓGICAS DE Microlophus tigris (SAURIA: TROPIDURINAE) EN LOS ALREDEDORES DEL PARQUE ECOLÓGICO DE LA MOLINA, LIMA, PERÚ
Authors: Macedo-Bedoya Jehoshua
Published: January 2025

The presence of Microlophus tigris in the surroundings of the Parque Ecológico de La Molina was registered, and distribution and behavioral patterns were recorded. Males showed a preference for areas close to the park, while females were more distant with other males. Habitat preference suggests territorial and adaptive patterns. The presence of males was pronounced compared to females, suggesting a possible sex imbalance in the population. These results provide important information for the management and conservation of the species, emphasizing the need for comprehensive approaches and future research on social interactions and reproductive aspects.
Verification of Past Beliefs Influences Current Beliefs
Authors: Wolfe Michael B. , Williams Todd J. , Denison Alexander J. , Hart Liam W.
Published: January 2025

Background

It is important to understand the factors that influence belief formation and belief change.

Objective

We test the hypothesis that following belief change about contentious topics, verifying a past belief will influence current beliefs.

Methods

In Experiment 1, participants reported initial beliefs about television violence in a prescreening, then read a belief-inconsistent text in the experiment. Participants either verified or did not verify their initial beliefs before reporting current beliefs. In Experiment 2, participants were randomly assigned to verify their initial belief (about gun control effectiveness), a false belief that was the opposite of their initial belief or did not verify a belief.

Results

Participants changed their beliefs after reading a belief-inconsistent text. If participants first verified the beliefs they held several weeks prior to the experiment, they reported their post-reading beliefs as closer to those initial beliefs. In Experiment 2, although 80% of participants in the false belief condition verified that belief as accurate, it did not influence their post-reading beliefs.

Conclusion

Results show that beliefs were moderated when participants verified their initial beliefs. Results are consistent with the belief fluency hypothesis, which contends that salient information is used in constructing our current beliefs.
Failed Back Surgery Syndrome: An Updated Review
Authors: Rhoul Abdelilah , Gartit Mohammed , Noumairi Mohammed , Mir Siham EL. , Oumri Ahmed Amine EL
Published: January 2025

Background:

Failed Back Surgery Syndrome (FBSS) is a known condition with severe morbidity. Usually described as pain that either does not improve or worsen after back surgery. Although many possible causes leading back pain to persist after surgery were described, the exact pathology remains not elucidated and the management could be very challenging.

Objectives:

This review aims to discuss different causes of this syndrome besides the different current therapeutic approaches.

Conclusion:

A good assessment of the clinical presentation based on the history of pain and physical examination in addition to the MRI input, help to detect the cause of the persistent pain. The therapeutic options are wide, from pharmacological to interventional methods. Nevertheless, a multidisciplinary approach is frequently needed to treat FBSS patients.
Brincamos?: Conversas sobre disputas de quem, em que tempo e espaço brincam as crianças
Authors: Lis Maria
Published: January 2025

While there is a widespread consensus today that play is fundamental to children, we are still con-strained by an uninvested and uninformed under-standing of this practice by most of the adults who coexist with children in the various spaces in which they live. As a result, there has been a grad-ual loss of children’s autonomy in play, by virtue of a lack of effort to enhance possibilities on the part of the adults who accompany them but also as consequence of a shortage of spaces available for this purpose as well as from a certain under-standing of time, which is a critical element in the way we allow them to grow and flourish – all of these factors, underpinned by generalized pub-lic disinvestment in this subject-making process, which paves the way to dead-ends and impossibil-ities in the construction of alternatives to the way of the world. However, human behavior or under-standing seldom emerges without foundation. In this brief reflection, I sketch a broad outline of the issue of play, dividing it into three vectors that can help explain it and untangle it. I consider thewhen, the where, and the who of play, to map out the possibility of expanding children’s opportu-nities to play, without unnecessary restraints or constraints.
Faktor-Faktor di Balik Penangguhan Aksesi Kosovo ke Uni Eropa: Perspektif Keputusan Kolektif
Authors: Puspitaningrum Dinda , Yuniarti Yuniarti
Published: January 2025

The opportunity for membership expansion and the economic and political integration that was offered by the EU, Kosovo decided to join the EU. However, Kosovo's integration process into the European Union is still suspended due to several factors. Therefore, this research aims to explain the reason of the European Union has suspended Kosovo's membership application. This research uses an explanatory method with primary and secondary data. The data analysis technique used in this research is qualitative. This research uses the Decision-Making theory of Richard C. Snyder, H. W. Bruck and Burton Sapin. Research results show that the EU's decision to suspend Kosovo's membership application was influenced by internal and external factors. This internal factor is related to the normative values adopted by the European Union, which requires a unanimous decision of the European Council consisting of the heads of EU member states. However, there were 5 countries that rejected Kosovo's membership application proposal, namely Spain, Greece, Cyprus, Romania, and Slovakia because the five countries did not recognize Kosovo's sovereignty. Then there are external factors related to the Serbia-Kosovo conflict. After these considerations, the European Union suspended Kosovo's membership application. The European Union also supports the progress of Kosovo's accession process which is accompanied by the normalization of Kosovo-Serbia relations. The normalization of the Kosovo-Serbia relationship will also provide changes in the decisions of the five EU member states related to the recognition of Kosovo's sovereignty.
RILEM TC CUC: Carbon dioxide uptake by concrete during and after service life – Opening Letter
Authors: Gluth Gregor , Bernal Susan
Published: January 2025

The ability of cement to chemically bind CO2 in a carbonation reaction enables the material to act as a carbon sink, which could partly account for offsetting the CO2 emissions associated with cement production. In response to the many open questions in this context, the RILEM Technical Committee CUC was created in May 2024. The focus of the TC will be to facilitate discussions regarding the current approaches to estimate the CO2 uptake by cementitious materials (concrete and other construction products) during and after service life. This Opening Letter presents aspects of the motivation to establish the TC, a brief overview of the state of the art in the field, the scheduled work programme, and the anticipated impact of the TC outputs. Though it is not intended to be an exhaustive discussion of the challenges to be addressed, from what is summarized in this letter, it is clear that work is required to base estimates of CO2 uptake by cementitious materials on a data set that is as extensive, accurate and forward-looking as possible. It is anticipated that the inclusion of interdisciplinary perspectives and data from academia and industry will enable progress in the field.

Published: January 2025

BACKGROUND

Mental health treatment is hindered by the limited number of mental health care providers and the infrequency of care. Digital mental health technology can help supplement treatment by remotely monitoring patient symptoms and predicting mental health crises in between clinical visits. However, the feasibility of digital mental health technologies has not yet been sufficiently explored. Rhythms, from the company Health Rhythms, is a smartphone platform that uses passively acquired smartphone data with artificial intelligence and predictive analytics to alert patients and providers to an emerging mental health crisis.

OBJECTIVE

The objective of this study was to test the feasibility and acceptability of Rhythms among patients attending an academic psychiatric outpatient clinic.

METHODS

Our group embedded Rhythms into the electronic health record of a large health system. Patients with a diagnosis of major depressive disorder, bipolar disorder, or other mood disorder were contacted online and enrolled for a 6-week trial of Rhythms. Participants provided data by completing electronic surveys as well as by active and passive use of Rhythms. Emergent and urgent alerts were monitored and managed according to passively collected data and patient self-ratings. A purposively sampled group of participants also participated in qualitative interviews about their experience with Rhythms at the end of the study.

RESULTS

Of the 104 participants, 89 (85.6%) completed 6 weeks of monitoring. The majority of the participants were women (72/104, 69.2%), White (84/104, 80.8%), and non-Hispanic (100/104, 96.2%) and had a diagnosis of major depressive disorder (71/104, 68.3%). Two emergent alerts and 19 urgent alerts were received and managed according to protocol over 16 weeks. More than two-thirds (63/87, 72%) of those participating continued to use Rhythms after study completion. Comments from participants indicated appreciation for greater self-awareness and provider connection, while providers reported that Rhythms provided a more nuanced understanding of patient experience between clinical visits.

CONCLUSIONS

Rhythms is a user-friendly, electronic health record–adaptable, smartphone-based tool that provides patients and providers with a greater understanding of patient mental health status. Integration of Rhythms into health systems has the potential to facilitate mental health care and improve the experience of both patients and providers.

Professional Integration and Requirements of the Teaching Profession in Physical Education (Case of Trainee Teachers in the Southern Sector in Tunisia)
Authors: Nejah Kacem
Published: January 2025

This research is part of the framework of professional didactics which puts the teacher’s activity at the centre of his analysis. It is an exploratory, descriptive and comparative study that aims to investigate the professional integration (PI) of Tunisian physical education and sports (PE) teachers with the particularity of being recruited after five years of unemployment since obtaining their diplomas. The objective is to measure the effect of experience and level of intervention on the intensity of difficulties to verify the development of novices during the PI period. To meet the objectives of this study, we conducted a questionnaire survey of 135 PE ES in the southern Tunisian sector. To decant the differences in the experiences of PSE PEs, the study sample is divided into three groups according to the experience to verify the effect of the latter on the intensity of difficulties. Also, a comparison between three groups according to the sub-bodies of PE teachers was made to verify the effect of the level of intervention. The results of the descriptive analysis showed that beginning PE teachers face difficulties with different degrees. The results of this study show that the categories of difficulties most cited are pedagogical/didactic. In second place comes the category of organizational difficulties. The difficulties related to private life and the category of relationship difficulties are of low intensity. The most salient difficulties are classroom management (78%), business travel, learning assessment, learning planning and organizational constraints. The results also showed that Tunisian PE teachers encounter the same difficulties with different degrees during the PI period. Work experience during the PI period does not appear to affect the intensity of hardship. Also, the difficulties are not experienced in the same way by the teaching sub-bodies. In conclusion, in a context in which the recruitment of PE teachers is becoming more and more difficult, following a long period of unemployment and in the absence of PI and training programs for novices, the PI of PE is becoming difficult. To upgrade PE in Tunisia, recruitment must take into consideration several personal and contextual factors. Also, training and support programs for the NP before and during the internship period become a requirement.

We aim to characterize the diversity of amphibians and reptiles associated with plantations of avocado cv. Hass (Persea americana) in the department of Risaralda, Colombia from an ecological, molecular, and evolutionary perspective. Two sampling periods were implemented between 2019 and 2020 using visual encounter surveys; rarefaction curves and species richness estimators were used to evaluate the completeness of the sampling. Identification of the material was based on both morphological characters as well as DNA barcoding methods sequencing the mitochondrial cytochrome C oxidase subunit I (COI) marker. We also used the COI sequences to construct phylogenies and evaluate the phylogenetic diversity (PD) of the community. Seven amphibian and 18 reptile species were recorded, for which 49 COI sequences were obtained, 15 of which represent the first sequence barcoding records for Colombia. We also found 12 instances of incongruence between the morphological and DNA barcoding identification methods, and we provide a discussion on the correct identification. Finally, although we commonly observed a positive relationship between species richness and PD, we also found that PD can provide valuable information when species richness values are uninformative at comparing two communities. Our results support the need for a greater sampling effort in the area to recognize its true diversity, as this will allow a better understanding of the complex dynamics present in modified landscapes. Also, we conclude with the great contribution of DNA barcoding studies at a small geographical scale and support the use of the COI marker as a suitable source of information for species identification and evaluating the diversity of communities from a historical perspective.

We describe the first record of a wild nest of the Yucatan Spiny-tailed Iguana (Cachryx defensor) in its natural habitat, with notes on probable nesting guarding behavior and nest site fidelity. On 22 March 2022, an adult female C. defensor was found inside a shelter in a hollow trunk of a black-sap poisonwood (Metopium brownei), a toxic tree typical of the seasonally dry tropical forest and thorn scrub of Mirador-Rio Azul National Park, in far northern Guatemala. On closer inspection of the shelter, a clutch of three recently laid eggs was found in the trunk cavity above a bed of wood debris inside the hollow trunk. Several egg-shell fragments of what seems to be a clutch from the year before our finding were also observed.

Antipredator mechanisms are efficient ways to avoid attempted predations, and various forms exist in nature. Anurans play a crucial role in the trophic chain and show a diverse repertoire of mechanisms. However, due to the vast diversity of anurans, little is known about the antipredator mechanism repertoire of each species. Here, we present an updated list of mechanisms reported for two genera of anurans, Pristimantis and Boana, including nine new antipredator behaviors for Pristimantis aff. guianensis and Boana pardalis. One of those behaviors is the limbs interweave, a rare mechanism reported for only 14 anuran species. Our findings highlight the importance of empirical research and direct natural history observation. Even for well-known species, knowledge on natural history can be limited.
Una visión de la gordura en México: Validación de un conjunto de escalas para evaluar estigma de peso y actitudes anti obesidad
Authors: Villanueva Bustamante Marcoantonio , Rivera Aragón Sofia
Published: January 2025

Se le conoce como Estigma de Peso a la devaluación social que experimenta una persona en función de su peso e imagen corporal cuando estos son percibidos como más grandes de lo normal. Por su parte, las Actitudes Anti Obesidad son las evaluaciones y percepciones negativas hacia las personas con sobrepeso u obesidad que realiza una persona. Ambos fenómenos tienen consecuencias negativas sobre la salud, por lo que resulta necesario determinar cómo se relacionan estos fenómenos y como influyen en el desarrollo de sobrepeso u obesidad. Sin embargo, en México aún no se cuentan con instrumentos para evaluar estos constructos. De este modo, el objetivo del presente estudio fue validar el Inventario de Situaciones Estigmatizantes y la Escala de Actitudes Anti Obesidad para población mexicana. Una vez sometidas a un proceso de validación culturalmente pertinente, se obtuvieron dos escalas abreviadas y con adecuadas propiedades psicométricas. Asimismo, los factores obtenidos presentan correlaciones significativas y positivas, proveyendo de evidencias de validez convergente, y correlaciones positivas con el Índice de Masa Corporal, dotando a las escalas de evidencia de validez de criterio.

Published: January 2025

La Odontología, como otras ciencias de la salud, ha registrado una transformación profunda en los últimos años, marcado en última instancia por la introducción de la Inteligencia Artificial (IA), la cual ha emergido como una herramienta transformadora con capacidad de procesar grandes volúmenes de datos y aprender de ellos, lo que ha generado avances significativos en la enseñanza educativa, como por ejemplo en la interpretación de imágenes dentales, la predicción de enfermedades y la optimización de tratamientos. No obstante, el uso de IA en la odontología no está exento de desafíos y consideraciones éticas que deben ser cuidadosamente evaluadas1.

Soberanía móvil: la nación wayuu entre los sueños, el comercio y la política
Authors: Ochoa Sierra María
Published: January 2025

Los wayuu son un pueblo indígena binacional que argumenta no tener fronteras. Su movimiento transnacional mantiene activa la nación wayuu que se alimenta de acciones cotidianas que construyen lo que llamo soberanía móvil wayuu. Este artículo es resultado de una etnografía que analiza la concepción wayuu del tiempo (y el espacio) y la manera en que da vida a la nación wayuu y sus afirmaciones soberanas. Expongo la presentación de los sueños y la construcción de persona wayuu; las elecciones en Uribia que enlazan pasado con presente bajo la premisa de ancestralidad, construyendo una promesa de futuro; y su concepción como una nación sin fronteras pese a la existencia de los Estados. La visión moderna de un tiempo cronológico y lineal, en contraposición a uno que va y viene de forma discontinua, contribuye a la usual representación del pensamiento wayuu como anacrónico, ilegítimo, e incluso, irreal.
Configuraciones temporales de las conflictividades
Authors: Keren Marín González  , María Ochoa Sierra
Published: January 2025

Nosotros, los modernos, percibimos el espacio como infinito, estático y tridimensional, y el tiempo como móvil, unidimensional y uniforme. El pensamiento occidental imagina este último como la agrupación en segmentos que marcan un pasado, un presente y un futuro, siendo esta lectura cronológica la que ordena y estructura la vida. En este pensamiento, el futuro es el tiempo de la promesa, las proyecciones, esperanzas o motivaciones; el presente, el tiempo ambiguo en el que todo sucede anclado al pasado o al futuro, pero también aquel en el que las contingencias tienen lugar: lo que ocurre de repente, el acontecimiento, y el pasado son el lugar de la nostalgia, lo histórico, lo idealizado. Las articulaciones entre pasado, presente y futuro son amplias, y, dependiendo de cómo nos situemos frente al tiempo (en relación permanente con el espacio), la perspectiva de los problemas cambiará. Así pues, en este dosier vinculamos la imaginación temporal al análisis de problemáticas variadas con el fin de entender mejor esta premisa en diversos ejemplos. Creemos que un mismo problema puede ser comprendido de diferentes maneras si consideramos sus variables temporales, así como las percepciones del tiempo y las experiencias en torno a la temporalidad.

The field of medicine makes extensive use of image classification, which is one of the computational applications that is specifically used for the purpose of identifying anomalies in magnetic resonance (MR) brain pictures. Classification, feature extraction, and feature reduction are the three components that make up the head tumor classification method that has been suggested. The Gray Level Co-occurrence Matrix (GLCM) is used in the process of feature extraction. The Maximum Difference Feature Selection (MDFS) approach is used for the purpose of feature selection within the context of reducing the coefficient of the picture. During the classification process, K Nearest Neighbors (KNN) and Support Vector Machine (SVM) classifiers are used to categorize the pictures. These classifiers are trained using the extracted features provided before. The performance of feature extraction techniques using two different classifiers is compared in terms of assessment metrics, sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy. This comparison is based on the outcomes of the experiments. We are able to draw the conclusion that the combination of Gray Level Co-occurrence Matrix and Maximum Difference Feature Selection with Support Vector Machines demonstrates an accuracy of 95.0% based on the results of the comparison
MEMPERKASAKAN SISTEM TERAS PERBANKAN ISLAM DENGAN KONTRAK SYARIAH, BLOK RANTAI DAN KONTRAK PINTAR: SUATU KAJIAN KUALITATIF Empowering Islamic Core Banking System with Shariah Contract, Blockchain and Smart Contract: A Qualitative Study
Authors: Mohd Tarmizi Mohd Naufal , Hidayat Buang Ahmad , Daud Mohd Zaidi
Published: January 2025

Nowadays Islamic core banking system is developed based on an open architecture that allows the integration of multiple systems and modules that ease the functionality to be added, replaced, and amended. Though it becomes easier, however, the Islamic core banking system is exposed to Shariah risk as simple as a change request that can affect a parameter which is Shariah compliance may become non-compliance due to changes in a single line of coding. Thus, this article evaluates the prospect of integrating Shariah requirements in the core banking system by virtue of Shariah compliance principles under the Islamic Financial Services Act 2013 aside from evaluating the prospect of empowering the functionality of the core banking system by referring to previous studies on blockchain and smart contract technologies. A qualitative approach via textual study, legal doctrine, and interviews was undertaken in this study to analyze data related to Shariah contract requirements, blockchain and smart contract. This article found that financial technologies such as blockchain and smart contract if integrated into the Shariah contract-based core banking system can mitigate counterparty risk, provide high-quality data, elevate the integrity of Shariah compliance processes, protect the transparency of data and processes, and act as an enforcement tool for contract conclusion.
APPOINTMENT OF FEMALE AS A QĀḌI (JUDGE) OF SHARI‘AH COURT OF APPEAL IN NIGERIA: A GENDER BATTLE OR RELIGIOUS STANCE
Authors: Abolaji Abdulraheem Taofeeq
Published: January 2025

The appointment of the justices is well provided for under the Nigerian constitution. However, appointment of a female as a Qāḍi of the Shari‘ah Court of Appeal in Nigeria, faith-based adjudicatory process, has remained a thing of divergence among scholars. Therefore, this article investigates whether it is permissible for a female to be appointed as a Qāḍi of the Shari‘ah Court of Appeal in Nigeria. In carrying out this research, a doctrinal method is employed which includes analysis of primary and secondary data. It then argues that the appointment or otherwise of a female as a Qāḍi should not be categorized as a gender battle, but rather a religious position, depending on the madhhab (School of Law) a given country adopts. Drawing from jurisdictions like Malaysia and Pakistan, the paper finds that a female can become a Qāḍi of the Shari‘ah Court and hold high-ranking positions in the court as there is no explicit prohibition of such appointment in the fundamental sources of Islamic Law.
