Wzorce relacji damsko-męskich w polskich programach telewizyjnych typu reality show opartych na konwencji konkursu
Authors: Czepiec‑Veltzé Karina , Kułaga Wojciech
Published: July 2024

Programy telewizyjne w formacie reality show dostarczają widzom przede wszystkim rozrywki opartej na dynamicznym rozwoju akcji oraz możliwości podglądania, jak celebryci czy medialni nowicjusze radzą sobie z rzeczywistością oraz trudnymi zadaniami postawionymi przez scenarzystów programu. Każda tego typu produkcja niesie ze sobą szereg innych wartości i wzorców, w tym podejścia do płci człowieka oraz relacji między mężczyznami a kobietami. Niniejszy artykuł ma na celu określenie i usystematyzowanie tego, jakie wzorce i modele relacji damsko-męskich pojawiają się w czterech najpopularniejszych w Polsce reality show opartych na konwencji konkursu. Do badań zakwalifikowano cztery formaty, których głównym celem jest wygrana przez pary damsko-męskie, poprzedzona grą i rywalizacją wszystkich uczestników: „Hotel Paradise”, „Love Island. Wyspa miłości”, „Sanatorium Miłości” oraz „Ex na plaży”. Produkcje te łączą zbliżone zasady rozgrywki, natomiast różni wiek uczestników, ich status społeczny, a także profil nadawcy. Metodologia badań opiera się na analizie reprezentacji społecznych w oparciu o testowanie stereotypów płci biologicznych oraz wyznaczenie ich aktualnych kategorii. Na podstawie losowo dobranej próby odcinków z tych czterech programów zweryfikowane zostały założenia badawcze dotyczące powielania w polskich reality show kulturowych stereotypów dotyczących płci biologicznych.

Authors: Teixeira Thiara Messias de Almeida , Teixeira Amom Chrystian de Oliveira , Oliveira Elton Souza
Published: July 2024

O objetivo da pesquisa foi produzir o mapa síntese da vulnerabilidade natural à perda de solo e da fragilidade ambiental da Bacia Hidrográfica do Ribeirão Santa Rita, localizada entre o Distrito Federal e o estado de Goiás. A bacia foi intensamente ocupada por atividades agropecuárias em larga escala, resultando em significativas transformações na paisagem. Na confecção dos mapas, foram utilizadas bases de dados geocartográficos do Sistema Estadual de Geoinformação de Goiás (SIEG), Projeto MapBiomas, imagens SRTM, e metodologias consagradas nos Estudos Integrados da Paisagem no Brasil por Crepani et al. (2001) e Ross (1994). A análise integrada da Bacia permitiu a obtenção de uma síntese da dinâmica ambiental que revela diferentes graus de vulnerabilidade e fragilidade. Desde a década de 1980, a Bacia já perdeu aproximadamente 60% da sua cobertura original de Cerrado. Houve um aumento nas áreas destinadas à monocultura de grãos em detrimento das áreas de pastagens. Os mapas de vulnerabilidade e fragilidade produzidos destacam a complexidade na elaboração de modelos matemáticos. Ambos os métodos indicam que a maior parte da Bacia apresenta um grau médio de vulnerabilidade e fragilidade. Essas metodologias são fundamentais para diversas análises espaciais da realidade e para a criação de modelos que visam identificar vulnerabilidades e potencialidades dos ambientes naturais e antropizados, fornecendo informações essenciais para o planejamento ambiental.

Hepatitis C Virus E1 Protein Enhances Macrophage iNOS Expression In-vitro
Authors: Lkhagvasuren Enkhsaikhan
Published: July 2024

Interferon-γ (IFN-γ) is a key cytokine in the adaptive immune response that is primarily secreted from CD4+ T helper cells to induce Cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) cell response against HCV infection. IFN-γ activates macrophages in the liver resulting in inhibition of viral replication and increased NO production. HCV-infected macrophages are major producers of NO in the liver. It is not completely understood how HCV proteins affect iNOS expression and what the role of IFN-γ is in HCV protein expression in HCV-infected macrophages.

Objective: Evaluate hepatitis C virus proteins’ regulation of IFN-γ-activated macrophage cell line.

Methods: RAW-264.7 cells were seeded in 6 well-plates and transfected with HCV protein expressing plasmids using lipofectamine. After treating with IFN-γ, we determined the iNOS and HCV core, NS5A and E1 protein expression with immunoblotting.

Results: Consistent with other studies, HCV core and NS5A proteins induced iNOS expression in macrophages. Moreover, HCV E1 protein-enhanced iNOS expression is highest in the presence and absence of IFN-γ activation.

Conclusion: These results indicate that hepatitis C virus core, NS5A, E1 protein regulates iNOS protein expression in IFN-γ-activated and resting macrophage cell lines. These findings point to a future research direction for understanding the pathogenesis of HCV-related liver inflammation.

The Early Modern Székely Society from a Legal Historical Perspective
Authors: Rácz Balázs Viktor
Published: July 2024

The paper discusses the changes in Székely society during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. The topic is presented from a legal historical perspective because the scholarly literature has either paid no substantial attention to the legal framework of the early modern era or failed to utilize the sources relevant for Székely society. By re-examining already known sources and analyzing new ones, i.e., judicial proceedings, testimonies, contract and personal letters, it appears that the main turning points of the history of Székely society have been misinterpreted in some aspects, and a series of new questions have emerged that are yet to be answered.
An Alternative Proposal Explaining the Origin of the Word and Social Group ‘Székely’
Authors: Keszi Tamás
Published: July 2024

The word ‘Székely’ or ‘Szekler’ was formed from the Hungarian verb szökik (jump, move fast, escape, run away) using the suffix ‘-l/ly’ creating deverbal nouns. The original meaning of the word is fast-moving (person), fugitive, or runaway. The formation of the social group began in the eleventh century. The process was brought about the establishment of the landlord system and frequent wars which led to the escapes and ‘wanderings’ of slaves and free people coerced into bondage. The refugees mainly settled in the sparsely populated border region, where the institutional vacuum offered them favourable conditions to avoid the control of the feudal state. Here, the groups of different ethnic origins acquired a unified identity. We can understand the process of the formation of the community by using the conceptual frameworks of ‘unintended consequences, self-organization, spontaneous order, and exaptation.’ The spontaneous process may have been replaced by the conscious organizational efforts of the Hungarian kings only around 1100. This was followed by the first mention of the Székelys in the Battle of Olšava in 1116.

A Rare Case of Unexpected High Plasma Vitamin B12 levels: A Case Report
Authors: Kumari Sarla , Kumar Mukesh , Kadour Emilia , Abu Nayla Asl Abdulameer Majeed
Published: July 2024

Abstract

High blood levels of vitamin B12 are often attributed to over-supplementation; however, elevated B12 levels can occur without supplementation, raising concerns about underlying serious conditions. This case report presents a 30-year-old female referred due to high serum cobalamin levels initially discovered during an evaluation for joint pain. Despite no vitamin B12 supplementation, her B12 levels rose from 2000 pg/mL to 7000 pg/mL over three months. Comprehensive testing, including liver and renal function tests, CBC, LDH, peripheral smear, thyroid function tests, homocysteine, methylmalonic acid levels, and imaging studies, revealed no abnormalities.
Active holotranscobalamin was elevated, but there were no signs of malignancy or other serious conditions. The patient remained clinically stable throughout a six- month follow-up. This case highlights the importance of a structured approach in evaluating elevated serum cobalamin levels and considering macro-vitamin B12 in the differential diagnosis. Further research is needed to understand the clinical significance of macro-vitamin B12 and its impact on B12 level interpretation.

Keywords: Macro-vitamin B12, Transcobalamins, Elevated serum cobalamin.
How AI can improve identity verification and access control processes
Authors: Mandru Sri kanth ,   USA
Published: July 2024

Artificial intelligence (AI) is recognized as the driving force responsible for reinventing a wide range of industries, among them IAM. This paper, therefore, looks for the potential for advancement in AI systems with respect to IAM, focusing on identity verification and access control within IAM systems. IAM systems face really difficult problems nowadays: management of user identity, real-time access control, and protection from modern threats. Traditional approaches have proven to be inefficient worldwide because of the static nature of the approaches and the lack of human intervention. In this way, this work provides a discussion on how these IAM challenges are to be effectively managed with the application of AI technologies. AI empowers strong tools of advanced data analytics, machine learning mechanisms, and automation. Equipped with all these capabilities, IAM systems can monitor user activity and behavior continuously, identify emerging anomalies in real time, and dynamically enforce policies to greatly enhance security and efficiency. Research has shown that AI brings better results in terms of security and productivity and offers scalable solutions in light of current and future needs for identity management. AI integration can streamline the process of verification of identity, offer mechanisms of authentication that are enhanced, and deliver precise and dynamic access control methods. Meanwhile, resonant incorporation of AI in IAM definitively gives the systems the ability to learn and change and to learn firm protection along with operational resilience against threats that constantly change over time. In this light, IAM systems based on AI will be able to properly satisfy the growing demands of modern organizations in terms of proper security, optimum performance, and user satisfaction.

Despite the importance of monitoring in self-regulated learning (SRL) and second language (L2) speech production outside of testing situations, there's limited understanding of how this metacognitive skill operates during tests and its impact on learner performance. Given the interconnected relationship between L2 testing and learning, it's crucial to explore how monitoring works during speaking tests, particularly computer-delivered integrated speaking tests. These tests are increasingly used in L2 classrooms and are seen as the future of L2 assessment. This study aims to investigate how 95 Chinese learners of English as a foreign language (EFL) used monitoring during computer-delivered integrated speaking tests. Participants completed a self-reported questionnaire after performing three speaking tasks. Descriptive analysis followed by Hierarchical Linear Modeling (HLM) showed that monitoring was frequently used by learners, but it didn't significantly affect their performance. These findings have implications for SRL in pedagogy: educators should help learners develop self-regulation skills, including self-monitoring during tests, by simulating testing conditions in classroom activities. Additionally, the study provides insights into L2 testing by focusing on self-monitoring as a component of strategic competence, a crucial aspect of L2 assessment.

Published: July 2024

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menguji pengaruh karakteristik pemerintah daerah yang terdiri dari tingkat ketergantungan dan rasio kemandirian terhadap pengungkapan wajib dalam LKPD dengan menggunakan opini audit sebagai pemoderasi. Tingkat pengungkapan wajib dalam laporan keuangan pemerintah daerah saat ini belum sepenuhnya mencapai 100%. Penelitian tentang pengaruh karakteristik pemerintah daerah terhadap pengungkapan dalam Laporan Keuangan Pemerintah Daerah (LKPD) baik untuk pemerintah provinsi, pemerintah kabupaten dan pemerintah kota telah dilakukan berulang kali namun belum menunjukkan hasil yang konsisten. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kuantitatif dengan menggunakan data sekunder. Sampel penelitian yaitu pemerintah kabupaten/kota pada lima provinsi di Pulau Jawa pada tahun 2020-2022 yang memenuhi kriteria. Analisis regresi berganda digunakan untuk menguji hipotesis pada data panel penelitian. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa tingkat ketergantungan pemerintah daerah tidak berpengaruh terhadap pengungkapan LKPD. Sedangkan rasio kemandirian daerah berpengaruh positif terhadap pengungkapan wajib LKPD. Opini audit tidak memperlemah pengaruh negatif tingkat ketergantungan pemerintah daerah serta memperlemah pengaruh positif rasio kemandirian daerah terhadap pengungkapan wajib LKPD. Hasil ini menunjukkan bahwa opini audit lebih berfokus pada transaksi laporan keuangan daripada dampak tingkat ketergantungan dan kemandirian daerah pada pengungkapan di LKPD.

Setiap pegawai diharapkan memahami dan menyadari sepenuhnya kewajiban serta tanggung jawab mereka, serta bersedia dengan sukarela untuk mematuhi aturan dan regulasi yang berlaku di tempat kerja mereka. Pencatatan absensi pegawai menjadi faktor krusial dalam manajemen sumber daya manusia (SDM). Informasi yang akurat dan terperinci tentang kehadiran seorang pegawai memiliki dampak besar terhadap penilaian kinerja individu, penentuan gaji atau upah, produktivitas, dan kemajuan keseluruhan institusi atau lembaga.
Metode: Penelitian ini merupakan jenis penelitian kualitatif yang menggunakan pendekatan deskriptif untuk menggambarkan objek penelitian berdasarkan fakta-fakta yang ada. Hasil: Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa produktivitas kerja pegawai mengalami peningkatan setelah diterapkannya sistem absensi berbasis sidik jari. Implementasi ini memberikan kemudahan dan kenyamanan, terutama dalam hal penggunaan. Sistem absensi berbasis sidik jari dianggap efektif karena meminimalkan hambatan bagi seluruh pegawai. Meskipun menggunakan teknologi sidik jari, sistem ini masih membutuhkan penggunaan kertas seperti pada absensi manual. Namun, hal ini tidak mengurangi efisiensi karena data dari absensi sidik jari direkapitulasi dengan baik tanpa mengurangi penggunaan kertas.
Kesimpulan: Lebih lanjut, penggunaan sistem ini juga memberikan jaminan keakuratan data kehadiran pegawai yang tidak dapat dimanipulasi, serta memastikan informasi dan laporan yang disampaikan kepada pimpinan sesuai dengan keadaan yang sebenarnya.

Kurumsal reklamlar, pazarın dinamik yapısı içerisinde mevcut varlıklarını korumak ve sürdürmek isteyen kuruluşlar açısından ayrı bir öneme sahiptir. Günümüzde önemli halkla ilişkiler uygulamaları arasında yer alan kurumsal reklamlar; hedef kitleler nezdinde iyi bir algıya, güçlü bir imaja ve olumlu bir itibara sahip olmak isteyen kuruluşlar veya markalar tarafından sıklıkla tercih edilmektedir. Mevcut müşterilerinin bağlılıklarını sürdürmek, bilgilendirmek, duyurmak, hatırlatmak ve potansiyel müşterileri kendi tarafına çekmek isteyen markalar, küresel pazar ortamında rekabet edebilmek adına kurumsal reklamlardan yararlanmaktadırlar. Bu çalışma, üretim sektöründe yer alan Arçelik markası ile hizmet sektöründe yer alan Turkcell markasının gazetelerde yayınlamış oldukları kurumsal reklamları karşılaştırmayı amaçlamaktadır. Çalışmanın bu amaçları doğrultusunda Arçelik ve Turkcell markasının 2014, 2015 ve 2016 yıllarında Sabah, Hürriyet ve Milliyet gazetelerinde yayınladıkları toplam 6 kurumsal reklam içerik analizine tabi tutulmuştur.

Exploring the Challenges Encountered by EFL Teachers in Promoting Critical Thinking Skills

It is widely recognized that developing critical thinking skills promotes higher levels of language proficiency and academic success. However, EFL teachers face several obstacles in their institutional and sociocultural context that might prevent them from implementing CT. This study explores EFL teachers’ perceptions of obstacles to their efforts in promoting critical thinking skills in classrooms and potential solutions to overcome these perceived obstacles. This exploratory study uses a constructivist approach to employ semi structured interviews with 12 EFL teachers at the higher secondary level in Bangladesh to address the research gap in understanding EFL teachers’ feedback on the obstacles to developing critical thinking in the classroom. The findings reveal several interrelated challenges, emphasizing the negative washback of the HSC examination, teachers’ authoritative roles, students’ passive learning styles, a lack of teachers’ training in developing CT and institutional discipline, and the arduous language structure of the textbook. This study also suggests that curriculum, assessments, teacher preparation, textbooks, and individual institutions should embrace an integrated thinking approach simultaneously.

This study sought to determine the influence of cost leadership strategy on mortgage performance of banking institutions within the mortgage industry in Kenya whilst assessing the moderating effect of bank size measured using total net asset base and branch network. About 83% of lending to the mortgage market was carried out by only 8 out of the 39 registered banks as at December 2022. The study was based on the theories of Porter’s Generic Strategies and Resource-Based View (RBV) of competitive advantage. To achieve the research objective, a sample of 30 commercial banks was picked out of the entire accessible population of 39 banking institutions. Respondents from the banks’ offices in Nairobi, Mombasa, Nakuru, and Kisumu were considered for the study. Questionnaires, with 5-point Likert-scale responses were administered to the respondents. There were five respondents drawn from the mortgage experts in each bank making 150 respondents with a response rate of 78.7%, or 118 questionnaires being returned. The data gathered was presented using descriptive statistics such as mean, standard deviation, and frequencies to measure central tendency and dispersion. From the linear regression conducted, cost leadership strategy explained 17.7% of variation in mortgage performance of banking institutions within the mortgage industry in Kenya. Regression results indicated that cost leadership had statistically significant positive influence on mortgage performance. Bank size significantly moderated the relationship between cost leadership and mortgage performance. These were justified by significant p-value that was less than 0.05. As a result, the study rejected the null hypotheses. The study recommends that banks should focus on increasing their net asset base prior to the adoption and implementation of cost leadership strategy. The Central Bank of Kenya as the industry regulator should also develop measures that encourage fewer banks with large asset bases to enhance overall mortgage performance.

The prevalence of casualization of labour in the retail sector in Zimbabwe is unprecedented. This coincides with the Zimbabwean economy’s fragile state and businesses in general struggling to survive, and the retail sector in particular seeking to minimise their operational costs through curtailing labour costs. Against this backdrop, the study aimed at establishing the nature and the extent to which casualization of labour in the retail businesses helps organisations to be viable and therefore deduct its effectiveness as a stratagem to ensure business sustainability. The study utilized a qualitative approach and case study design. In-depth interviews were conducted with managerial staff. Open-ended questionnaires were utilised to gather data from casual employees. The study established that casualization of labour is very high in the retail sector and retailers are considering it as a stratagem to minimise business expenses. The study also established that in as much as labour casualization is effective as a business viability stratagem; it is marred by high turnover intentions as employees perceive job insecurity. As such, the study recommends provision of decent work to circumvent high labour turnover intentions of these workers which is attributed to job insecurity. In light of the research findings, a further study on championing the relationship between the job insecurity and employee engagement is recommended. .
