Purpose: To examine the effect of healthcare provider patient communication nonverbal communicative behaviour on diabetes mellitus management practices in selected hospital in Kenya.

Methodology: This was a causal comparative research design study with application of quantitative methodology. The study was carried out at Kenyatta National Hospital (KNH) and MP Shah Hospital. Systematic random sampling was used to sample patients. 400 participants were involved in the study and comprised 313 patients at KNH and 87 patients at MP Shah Hospital studied between the months of February 2019 and November 2019. The researcher administered questionnaire was used to collect data. The results were summarized using percentages and means or medians for categorical and continuous data respectively. Comparisons were done using chi square test of association of categorical variables and independent t-test for comparison of means. Linear regression and ANOVA were used to test for associations and hypothesis between healthcare provider patient nonverbal communicative behaviour (NVCB) and diabetes mellitus management practices (DMMPs).

Findings: The rating of nonverbal communicative behavior was significantly higher at MP Shah Hospital than at KNH, p=0.010. Nonverbal communicative behavior had positive significant effect on diabetes mellitus management practices in Kenya [β=0.15, (95% CI 0.03, 0.27), p=0.016] with similar outcome at KNH [β=0.20, (95% CI 0.08, 0.33), p=0.002] and not at MP Shah Hospital [β=0.03, (95% CI 0.37, 0.42), p=0.899]. Thus, the null hypothesis was rejected in Kenya; the null hypothesis was rejected at KNH; the null hypothesis was not rejected at MP Shah Hospital. Therefore, there was significant effect of NVCB on DMMPs in Kenya, at KNH and not at MP Shah Hospital.

Unique contribution to theory, practice and policy: Nonverbal communicative behaviour was responsible for improved performance in diabetes mellitus management practices among patients in Kenya and at KNH. At MP Shah Hospital, NVCB was not responsible for improvement in the DMMPs. The findings reinforce uncertainty reduction and communication accommodation theories basis in the dyadic interaction between patients and healthcare providers. Therefore, NVCB needs to be well conceptualized and incorporated at the health ministry and medical training institutions to equip medical workers with the required communication skills.

Ruh sağlığı okuryazarlığı bireyin ruhsal hastalıkları anlama, tanıma ve yönetmedeki yetkinliği olarak tanımlanabilir. Toplum ruh sağlığını koruma ve geliştirmede önemli olan bu kavrama yönelik ülkemizde yeterli sayıda araştırma olmadığı görülmektedir. Tanımlayıcı türde yapılan bu araştırmayla bir il merkezinde yaşayan bireylerin ruh sağlığı okuryazarlığı düzeyinin incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır. İç Anadolu’da bir il merkezinde yaşayan 388 bireye gelişigüzel kartopu yöntemiyle ulaşılmış, araştırma verileri çevirimiçi form ile toplanmıştır. Veriler için Tanıtıcı Bilgi Formu ve Ruh Sağlığı Okuryazarlığı Ölçeği kullanılmıştır. Veri analizinde tanımlayıcı istatistikler, Bağımsız Örneklemlerde t Testi, Tek Yönlü Varyans Analizi (ANOVA) ve Tukey testi yapılmıştır. Araştırmada bireylerin Bilgi Odaklı alt boyut puan ortalaması 7.20±2.39, İnanç Odaklı alt boyutu 4.76±1.76, Kaynak Odaklı alt boyutu 2.80±1.25 ve ölçek toplamının 14.76±3.67 olduğu; cinsiyetin, eğitim düzeyinin, çalışma durumunun, ruhsal konulara ilgili olmanın ve ruhsal hastalığı olan bireyi tanımanın önemli farklılık yarattığı saptanmıştır (p<0.05). Araştırmada yaş, medeni durum, ekonomik durum ve kronik hastalığa sahip olmanın ise önemli bir fark yaratmadığı bulunmuştur (p>0.05). Ölçek maddelerinden alınan ortalama puan incelendiğinde şizofreni, depresyon, hastalık oluşumu, intihar, iyileşme, tedaviler ve hizmet kullanımına yönelik maddelerin diğerlerine göre daha düşük puan aldığı görülmüştür. Araştırma sonucunda katılımcıların ruh sağlığı okuyazarlığının yüksek düzeyde olduğu ve sosyodemografik değişkenlerden etkilendiği söylenebilir. Ruh sağlığı okuryazarlığını geliştirmeye yönelik ileri düzey çalışmaların yapılması önerilir.

Habiter
Authors: Gagnon Éric
Published: September 2021

L’habiter constitue un rapport que les individus entretiennent avec l’espace où ils résident. Il s’agit d’une expérience corporelle et sensible, ancrée dans une part d’imaginaire ; une manière de percevoir et de comprendre l’espace, de s’y orienter, s’y conduire, y agir et y interagir. Si l’habiter est souvent lié à un espace de protection, au chez-soi, il peut également être précaire et se trouve indissociable de la mobilité (sédentarisation, immigration, déménagements des personnes âgées, espaces dématérialisés).
Territórios e territorialidades: teorias, processos e conflitos
Authors: STÜRMER ARTHUR BRENO
Published: September 2021

Resenha do livro "Territórios e territorialidades: teorias, processos e conflitos", organizado por Marcos Saquet e Eliseu Sposito, cuja primeira segunda edição permanece tão atual quanto a primeira na discussão do conceito de território e seus desdobramentos em relação às territorialidades. Os autores reuníram nomes de peso no cenário geográfico nacional e internacional, mas é na forma de abordagem que está seu ponto forte, representado pela articulação multiescalar, abertura pluridisciplinar e muldimensionalidade do território. Como quase toda coletânea, sobressai-se a diversidade de visões sobre o território e as territorialidade, mas o conjunto da obra consegue alcançar unidade ao reunir artigos que se complementam ao conformar um trabalho de construção de "pontes" entre eles através de um mesmo conceito. Embora repita alguns assuntos ao longo de seus dezesseis textos, o livro é um grande convite a todos que queiram entender mais sobre como o conceito de território e de territorialidade auxilia na compreensão e análise desses assuntos. Também é recomendado a que deseje aprofundar o conhecimento acerca do conceito de território e suas relações com o tempo, espaço, lugar, paisagem e região por meio de textos de diferentes níveis de complexidade.

TERRITÓRIOS E TERRITORIALIDADES: A QUESTÃO DA ATUAÇÃO PROFISSIONAL POLICIAL NA FRONTEIRA BRASIL-PARAGUAI-ARGENTINA
Authors: PEREIRA Ricardo Dias , Dos SANTOS José Carlos
Published: September 2021

A gênese das instituições de segurança pública – a qual está intimamente ligada a formação política e cultural do Estado – se funda em relações de poder patriarcais e patrimonialistas, transformando as instituições policiais em territórios alicerçados na dominação. A história e a atuação das instituições policiais demonstram que o pensamento colonial, ainda presente nessas instituições, advém da herança militar e autoritária institucionalizada desde o início da colonização do Brasil. Essa colonialidade traz marcas profundas e permanentes nas forças policiais, o que reflete uma formação de agentes afastados das demandas cotidianas da sociedade. As relações de poder advindas dessa herança territorializaram os espaços policiais e colaboraram para a construção identitária violenta dos agentes policiais, este artigo busca desvelar algumas características da atuação profissional policial fronteiriça, com base em um enfoque interdisciplinar. Através de estudos descritivos e teóricos o artigo se resume em confrontar a tradição formativa dos agentes de segurança as demandas contemporâneas e a multiculturalidade da tríplice fronteira, buscando demonstrar que há um descompasso entre a formação e a consequente atuação do agente com as estratégias cotidianas dos sujeitos e acontecimentos da conurbidade local.
ILHAS DE CALOR URBANAS NOTURNAS NO BAIRRO JARDIM MARACANÃ EM PRESIDENTE PRUDENTE (SÃO PAULO, BRASIL)
Authors: Barbosa Hiago Pereira , Amorim Margarete Cristiane de Costa Trindade
Published: September 2021

As modificações realizadas pelas atividades humanas na superfície urbana geram diferenças no balanço de energia, que por consequência, ocasionam diferenças na temperatura do ar. O principal fenômeno gerado por estas diferenças é a ilha de calor urbana (ICU), que pode ser intensificada ou amenizada de acordo com os sistemas atmosféricos atuantes e as características ambientais e urbanas presentes nas urbes e seus entornos rurais. Neste contexto, analisamos o fenômeno das ICU no bairro Jardim Maracanã em dias representativos das estações de outono e de primavera do ano de 2012 durante o período noturno. Foram registrados valores acima dos 4°C, nas duas estações do ano sob condições de estabilidade atmosférica.
FUNÇÕES URBANAS NA FAIXA DE FRONTEIRA AMAZÔNICA: CENTRALIDADE DE NHAMUNDÁ (AM) E SEUS SISTEMAS TERRITORIAIS
Authors: Bartoli Estevan
Published: September 2021

O objetivo do artigo é entender os papéis e funções urbanas de Nhamundá, averiguando como afetam a área municipal e a faixa de fronteira. Inicialmente descrevemos como o sítio municipal (base física) e a posição de sede em relação à rede urbana regional são condicionantes dos tipos de uso do solo, concentrando na faixa sul do município maior parte da circulação e aglomerados humanos (rurais e urbanos). No segundo item abordamos como a circulação regional insere Nhamundá nas redes urbanas do Amazonas e Pará, possibilitando entrada de produtos que abastecem a cidade e seus entornos. No terceiro momento descrevemos a centralidade comercial e os principais sistemas territoriais locais através do modelo Sistema Territoriais Urbano-ribeirinho (STUR). Conclui-se que junto à frágil composição da economia local e sua situação na rede urbana importando produtos, os papéis de mediação exercidos pela cidade são ainda insuficientes quanto ao processamento de recursos regionais.
Análisis de la teoría del valor-trabajo en el desempeño productivo de algunos sectores económicos venezolanos durante el año 2009 - estudio de las transferencias de valor
Authors: Cobeña Luciana Madrid
Published: September 2021

En el presente artículo se plantea una demostración teórica y empírica sobre el proceso de las transferencias de valor entre algunos sectores de la economía venezolana para el año 2009, teniendo como eje de análisis a la Teoría del Valor-Trabajo. La metodología utilizada contempla analizar los sectores o ramas económicas que pueden ser considerados como productivos e improductivos, determinar el valor agregado generado y apropiado de algunos sectores, determinar y explicar el impacto del sector improductivo en los sectores seleccionados, para finalmente estimar las transferencias de valor en términos de horas trabajo. El análisis se basa en la identificación de una unidad de contabilización homogénea para determinar el excedente que se transfiere de un sector o rama a otro, según las actividades que cada uno realiza. Tomando en cuenta la particularidad rentista de la economía venezolana, se utilizan aproximaciones gruesas a efectos de realizar los cálculos correspondientes. Se espera con la investigación contribuir en el proceso de planificación en materia económica en el país.
Theoretical considerations of the innovation concept and case study - innovation in a food producing firm
Authors: Westeren Knut Ingar
Published: September 2021

In this article there is first an introduction about how concepts like entrepreneurship, innovation and creative destruction were developed by Schumpeter at the start of the 20th century. Schumpeter wanted to analyze the big questions about how the capitalist system developed based on a disequilibrium foundation. His concepts were necessary to develop his general theory of development, but at the same time these concepts have been adopted, used and developed for the analysis of one of the most important economics concepts for the 21th century, namely, innovation. Schumpeter used his concepts in relation to firms, to sectoral developments and for the economy as a whole. In this article we use a case study of innovation and we find relevance from Schumpeter’s analysis and further developments of innovation theory.
Islam, poética y subversión en Kazajistán. El vídeo musical de Maslo Chernogo Tmina
Authors: Pascual Galbis Pau
Published: September 2021

Los vídeos musicales de Maslo Chernogo Tmina, como Kensshi (Minero, 2019), Steppe (Estepa, 2020), Unknown world (Mundo desconocido, 2020) dirigidos por Aisultan Seitov, expresan las problemáticas socioculturales en el actual Kazajistán, a través de un lenguaje islámico, identitario y visionario. Narraciones densamente afectivas, patéticas y políticas; por tanto, perteneciente al éxtasis cinematográfico promovido por Serguei Eisenstein; es decir, -al acto de salirse de uno mismo-, y en el que el espectador se desborda ante la confrontación de imágenes emotivas-cognitivas, provocándole una reacción psíquica de manera epistémica. Por lo demás, los espacios recogidos, sórdidos y acciones místicas presentes, son semejantes a rituales sagrados, que destacan como partes conceptuales de sus trabajos, y en la que además predominan las escenas urbanas desoladas y paisajes desérticos. En relación con la letra hay que comentar que es básicamente deprimente, con intenciones de denuncia ecológica y social, acompañada por melodías populares de género abstract hip hop o trip hop, conjugadas con el folklore kazajo. Por otro lado, las tradiciones y valores ancestrales túrquicos y animistas del país, regresan de manera sincrética en los imaginarios de los videoclips del autor. Aludiendo a un intenso y crítico contraste, entre un occidente materialista decadente y un oriente retornado verdadero. A pesar de este atisbo de esperanza, la obra en general de Maslo Chernogo Tmina nos advierte de un reverso oscuro del próspero y contemporáneo Kazajistán, a consecuencia de la desintegración de la Unión Soviética y la nueva entrada al modelo capitalista global. A la par que se centra en la vida trágica acaecida en las calles de las nuevas generaciones euroasiáticas.
As novas direitas no Brasil e as estratégias de comunicação política nas mídias sociais
Authors: Silva de Oliveira André , Rodrigo de Messias Leite Breno , Silva Marques Rodolfo
Published: September 2021

Este trabalho tem como principal objetivo a discussão da formação de uma nova direita no Brasil, usando o marco cronológico das manifestações contra Dilma Rousseff (PT) em 2015 e como apogeu a ascensão de Jair Bolsonaro (então, no PSL) à Presidência da República, em 2018. A ideia é tratar do eixo discursivo da formação dessa nova direita, analisando algumas estratégias de comunicação política. O problema de pesquisa está em identificar se tais abordagens são eficazes junto ao eleitorado brasileiro. Os métodos são a revisão de literatura e a análise de discurso relacionada aos eixos teórico e intelectual desses agrupamentos ideológicos, às vezes representados em partidos. As conclusões mostram crescimento dos canais de comunicação da nova direita no Brasil, reforçando a conexão com o eleitor e ampliando esse novo alinhamento político-ideológico no país.
Associated Factors to Uptake of Human Papiloma Virus Vaccine 2 among Girls of Ages 9-14 years in Igombe Sub-County Bugweri District.
Authors:   , OLINGA MICHEAL ALBERT
Published: September 2021

ABSTRACT Background: Human papilloma virus (HPV) infection is a sexually transmitted infection and it’s estimated that 75% of sexually active people are infected with HPV during their lifetime, HPV vaccines are being marketed in many countries throughout the world; and are highly efficacious in preventing 90% of infections due to HPV virus. Even though HPV vaccination is recommended and mostly carried out in schools, there are multiple challenges in implementing and increasing the vaccine's uptake. Methodology: The study employed a cross sectional design and utilized a sample size of 424 respondents. Sampling was by systemic random sampling and data was collected using self-administered questionnaire. Thereafter, data analysis was done using SPSS version1.8. Results: Majority of respondents 77 (50.7%) did not receive HPV2 due to fear of needle prick pain, 51 (33.6%) due to discouragement by guardians, while minority 24 (15.8%) of the respondents were not given an appointment date. 127 (30%) of the respondents reported that previous experience such as painful needle pricks, other side effects such as headaches and fevers; would hinder HPV2 reception. Recommendations: Government of Uganda through ministry of health should ensure that there are national sensitization programs targeted at improving uptake of HPV vaccines among girls aged 9-14 years both those at schools and those out of schools. Conclusion: There was poor uptake of HPV2 vaccine among girls aged 9-14 years in Igombe sub county, this was mainly attributed to poor support by the parents/guardians to their girl children towards the vaccine, failure of health workers to issue return dates to the girls, distant health centers and fear of needle pricks and other side effects such as headaches and fevers; thus more sensitization of the communities and continuous medical education for the health workers is highly recommended to improve utilization of the vaccine.
Unbeaten Tracks in Japan
Authors: Kanasaka Kiyonori , Pertwee Nicholas
Published: September 2021

Isabella Bird’s best-selling book on Japan is republished here, but with a difference: for the first time, it is now fully annotated with supporting commentaries, providing the twenty-first century reader with an enhanced informed view of the new ‘modern Japan’ as Bird experienced it in 1878. Originally published as a two-volume work in 1880, this later abridged version, first published in 1885 and promoted as ‘a tale of travel and adventure’, became one of the best-selling travel books published by John Murray; it was reprinted numerous times and by different publishers. This volume is the original 1885 edition. It is not a facsimile, but has been reprocessed digitally to enable the annotations to be inserted, as well as the 40 copperplate illustrations to be restored to their original quality. The commentaries and notes have been written by Kiyonori Kanasaka, Japan’s leading expert on Isabella Bird who, over the past nearly 30 years, has retraced Isabella Bird’s footsteps in all the parts of the world she visited, and knows her travels in Japan intimately. (See Isabella Bird and Japan: A Reassessment>, Renaissance Books 2017.) This book will be essential reading for all those interested in the Bird legacy, the birth of modern Japan, travel writings of the Far East, the topography of Japan and Japan’s social and political history.

Published: September 2021

This new scholarly study examines the history of the relations between the British and Japanese monarchies over the past 150 years. Complemented by a significant plate section which includes a number of rarely seen images, as well as a chronology of royal/imperial visits and extensive bibliography, British Royal and Japanese Imperial Relations, 1868-2018, will become a benchmark reference on the subject. The volume is divided into three sections. Part I, by Peter Kornicki, examines the ‘royals and imperials’ history during the Meiji era; Part II, by Antony Best, examines the first half of the twentieth century; Part III, by Sir Hugh Cortazzi, focuses on the post-war history up to the present day. Published in association with the Japan Society, its appearance marks the abdication of Emperor Akihito and the enthronement of Crown Prince Naruhito in May 2019. It is also a memorial volume to the late Sir Hugh Cortazzi who died in August 2018, shortly after completing his own contribution to the volume.
