Published: December 2018

Este artigo tem como objetivo analisar a mediação realizada em um museu de ciências durante uma atividade investigativa desenvolvida junto com um grupo de dez alunos de ensino médio de uma escola pública. A matriz teórica e metodológica foi a histórico-cultural e inspiradas na abordagem do ensino por investigação e na ação mediada. A pesquisa teve cunho qualitativo e colaborativo uma vez que uma professora de biologia e um pesquisador do museu de ciências trabalharam em parceria na elaboração de um roteiro investigativo que foi desenvolvido junto a um grupo de estudantes como parte de uma das ações do programa educativo do museu sobre a temática “répteis”. Os dados foram produzidos por meio de gravação de áudio e anotações em diário de campo durante o desenvolvimento da atividade. Para fins de análise, os dados foram selecionados e organizados em episódios que foram categorizados de acordo com os pressupostos do ensino por investigação: problematização e levantamento de hipóteses, teste de hipóteses e sistematização do conhecimento. As análises apontaram que durante o desenvolvimento da ação mediada, no contexto do museu de ciências, os alunos puderam vivenciar uma investigação científica participando ativamente do processo de construção do conhecimento. Evidencia-se aqui a importância de uma mediação pedagógica qualificada no decorrer da atividade investigativa, ressaltando-se a ação dos agentes operando com as ferramentas culturais disponíveis que contribuíram para potencializar o processo de aprendizagem dos conceitos biológicos abordados.
TRADUÇÃO E ESTUDO DE DUAS CRÔNICAS DE JOSÉ ALDEMIR
Authors: Celedón Esteban Reyes
Published: December 2018

A crônica moderna ou crônica urbana, que nasceu no jornal, rapidamente evoluiu e, pelas suas qualidades estéticas (ou poéticas, para sermos menos germânicos), se tornou um gênero literário. Excluem-se, evidentemente, as crônicas sem qualidades estéticas, que não são poucas. Por tratar da cidade, da arquitetura, da urbanização, do espaço planejado, as chances de termos crônicas urbanas interessantes aumentam quando se trata de um autor que entende (além de literatura) do assunto, pode ser um arquiteto, urbanista ou geógrafo urbano. É o caso do cronista e professor da UFAM, José Aldemir de Oliveira, cronista, a décadas, e especialista em Geografia Urbana, em Geografia Humana. Por este motivo, já faz muitos anos, que escolhemos este autor (e suas crônicas) para estudarmos. Nesta ocasião, levando em conta a requisição da chamada desta revista para o número 12, selecionamos duas crônicas, deste autor amazonense, que falam de três cidades espanholas, a saber, Madri, Salamanca e Barcelona. Nossa proposta é, além da tradução de ditas crônicas para o espanhol, fazermos uma análise e estudos das mesmas; faremos algumas considerações sobre a particularidade deste tipo de tradução e compartilharemos com o leitor alguns comentários que consideramos relevantes, fundamentando nossas escolhas de tradução em teóricos da tradução (como o brasileiro Paulo Henrique Britto), além de comentários informativos sobre alguns levantamentos expostos nas crônicas.

Published: December 2018

The debate over the role of interviews in qualitative social research, especially relational-constructionist forms of discursive research, was lively already a decade ago and the debate continues. Some scholars argue that researchers who are interested in discourses should avoid producing interview data altogether. In this article, we compile and critically discuss the criticism posed against interview-based discursive research and defend the place of interviews in social research. While evaluating different forms of research, we argue, one must discuss methods and materials but also, if not more importantly, theoretical and methodological perspectives to them. Furthermore, we introduce qualitative attitude approach as an example of a discursive approach that utilises interview data while acknowledging the criticism against interview-based research scholars have presented over the years.

Oral Strip Technology: A review
Authors: Jaiswal Hema
Published: December 2018

Over the recent past, many of the research groups are focusing their research on this technology. Amongst Oral drug delivery system Oral Strip Technology (OST) is gaining much attention. The advantages of OST are the administration to pediatric and geriatric patient population where the difficulty of swallowing larger oral dosage forms is eliminated. This technology has been used for local action, rapid release products and for buccoadhesive systems that are retained in the oral cavity to release drug in controlled fashion. OST offers an alternate platform for molecules that undergo first pass metabolism and for delivery of peptides. An ideal OST should have the following properties: high stability, transportability, ease of handling and administration, no special packaging material and/or processing requirements, no water necessary for application, and a pleasant taste. All these requirement are fulfilled by the oral films. The OST is a good tool for product life cycle management for increasing the patent life of existing molecules or products. Compared to some of the complicated and expensive process (like lyophilization) used to manufacture ODTs(Orally Disintegrating Tablets), the OST is relatively easy to fabricate,thus reducing the overall cost of the therapy. One of the reasons is that the buccal mucosa is less permeable and is thus not able to elicit a rapid onset of absorption and hence better suited for formulations that are intended for sustained release action. Further, the buccal mucosa being relatively immobile mucosa and readily accessible, it makes it more advantageous for retentive systems used for oral trans mucosal drug delivery. The primary disadvantage associated with buccal delivery route is the low flux that in turn results in low drug bioavailability. To overcome this hurdle, various buccal penetration enhancers have been studied which improve the absorption pattern of the molecules. The article shows OST encompassing materials used in OST, method of preparation, evaluation, applications, commercial technologies and future Business prospects of this technology.

PRO KONTRA PERDA SYARIAH YANG TERJADI DI INDONESIA
Authors: Riasha Angelia Fima
Published: December 2018

Permasalahan yang ada di Indonesia beberapa terakhir ini sangatlah miris. Karena banyak persilihan yang terjadi di Indonesia mengenai masalah Perda Syariah yang baru-baru ini menjadi perdebatan di negara kita. Pasalnya banyak terjadi pro dan kontra mengenai Peraturan Daerah Syariah tersebut. Ada yang setuju mengenai Peraturan Daerah yang terdapat unsur keagamaan. Untuk provinsi yang mayoritas agama Islam Peraturan Daerah Syariah mungkin lebih dikedepankan karena mereka mengambil peraturan tersebut dari Peraturan yang ada di Al-Qur'an. Tetapi ada juga yang tidak setuju apabila Peraturan Daerah Syariah tersebut diadakan karena sangat bertentangan dengan isi yang ada di Al-Qur'an. Pasalnya Peraturan yang dibuat hanya untuk masyarakat atau warga yang melanggar peraturan tersebut, akan tetapi tidak untuk atau tidak berlaku untuk atasan yang melanggar peraturan tersebut. Dan peraturan yang dibuat juga tidak sesuai dengan Pancasila yang notabene adalah pondasi atau dasar negara Republik Indonesia.

Negara Berbasis Pancasila vs Negara Berbasis Khilafah
Authors: Herawati Etika
Published: December 2018

Negara Indonesia adalah sebuah Negara yang berdasar Paacasila. Dimana masyarakat saling menghargai keberagaman suku, adat, budaya maupun agama. Apalagi Indonesia adalah Negara yang terkenal dengan kemajemukan dan multikulturalnya. Agama dan Negara harusnya menjadi dua unsur yang saling berkesinambungan satu sama lain. Agar tujuan dari Negara dapat tercapai tanpa ada sebuah perpecahan. Gerakan ormas HTI yang bertujuan untuk merubah dasar Negara menjadi khilafah jelaslah sangat bertentangan dengan nilai- nilai Pancasila. Dimana dalam konteks khilafah, Indonesia akan kehilangan unsur- unsur keberagamannya. Jika ditelaah lebih lanjut, sebenarnya tujuan dari HTI tersebut hanyalah sebuah politik yang menguntungkan satu pihak. Melihat hal tersebut, tidak mungkin pemerintah tinggal diam. Mereka akan tetap menegakkan Pancasila sebagai dasar Negara. Agar terwujud tujuan dari Pancasila untuk keadilan dan kesejahteraan bangsa Indonesia.

A Systematic Review and Meta-Analytic Factor Analysis of the Depression Anxiety Stress Scales
Authors: Yeung Andrew Yui , Yuliawati Livia , Cheung Sing-Hang
Published: December 2018

[This paper is now published in Clinical Psychology: Science and Practice and can be accessed through http://dx.doi.org/10.1111/cpsp.12362.] Despite the increasingly widespread usage of the Depression Anxiety Stress Scales (DASS), its latent factor structure has yet to be reviewed. We thus carried out a systematic review of studies examining the latent factor structure of the DASS, further synthesizing findings by performing meta-analytic factor analyses on the available data from said studies. The literature search was conducted across three databases, yielding 59 articles encompassing 89 factor analyses. Reviewed results varied across factor analytic approaches (EFA vs. CFA) and DASS versions (DASS42 vs. DASS21), though the original 3-factor structure of the DASS was generally supported. However, bifactor models (consisting of a general factor and group factors) were most consistently best-fitting whenever tested, supporting an underlying unidimensional construct in DASS. This notion was corroborated by our meta-analytic factor analyses, wherein DASS21 bifactor models demonstrated the same consistent performance, though DASS42 analyses were inconclusive between a 3-factor and 1-factor solution. Our findings fit in with broader historical and contemporary developments in the field, and reinforce the potential utility of bifactor models in illustrating the overlap between depression and anxiety. Some recommendations moving forward are discussed.

Authors: Joshi Ramesh Prasad , Joshi Yadav Prasad
Published: December 2018

Background: Solid waste is a by-product of human activities. It has become an alarming challenge during recent decades in many cities of Nepal. Quantity and characteristics of solid waste have changed as a result of the modification in people’s lifestyle. The purpose of this study is to characterize the composition of solid waste in Bhimdatta Municipality of Kanchanpur district, Nepal.Methods: In between July to September 2015, a total of 45 households, 15 commercial places, 15 institutions were selected randomly. Solid waste samples were collected in recommended plastic bags. The collected wastes were categorized and weighted. Direct observation of municipal solid waste collection and its disposal practices were also performed. Qualitative information was collected from focus group discussion.Results: A total of 446.7 kg of solid waste was collected and the highest proportion (66.4%) was organic in composition. In the daily production of overall solid wastes, households were ranked the first (23.3%) and followed to the hotels and lodges (20.4%). The commercial centers produced the highest amount of all types of wastes. The crude waste dumping practice in the open and vacant areas was found a threat to human health, causing ecological imbalances and also bringing land, water, and air pollution.Conclusions: The rapidly growing population in the urban region of the study area has become an urgent issue in the production of several types of solid wastes. The organic waste was generated in the highest amount and maximum proportions of solid waste were produced from commercial centers.
Depression among diabetic patients visiting a diabetes center in Nepal
Authors: Pahari Durga Prasad , Upadhyay Radhika , Sharma Chandra Kala
Published: December 2018

Introduction: Depression is a major co-morbidity associated with diabetes. This study aims to assess the prevalence and determine factors associated with depression among diabetic patients visiting a diabetes center in Lalitpur, Nepal.Methods: This is a cross-sectional study of diabetic patients visiting a diabetes center in Kathmandu, Nepal. 203 diabetic patients were recruited in a period of two months. A validated and reliable Beck Depression Inventory Scale was used to identify and classify depression. Diabetes status was self-reported. Prevalence of depression, socio-demographic and diabetes related characteristics were calculated using frequency and percentages. Association was analyzed using chi-squared test. Statistical significance was determined at p<0.05. Bivariate logistic regression was performed to identify unadjusted odds ratio with 95% CI. Then, multivariate logistic regression model was designed for those variables significant at bivariate level to calculate adjusted odds ratio with 95% CI.Results: The prevalence of depression among diabetic patients was 34% (Mild - 17.7%, Moderate - 13.8% and Severe - 2.5%). Diabetic patients with secondary or above educational level were less than half likely to be affected by depression compared to patients with no formal school education [AOR:0.42]. Similarly, diabetic patients on insulin therapy were twice likely to be affected by depression compared to patients on oral hypoglycemic agents [AOR: 2.08] and patients having other comorbidity along with diabetes were also twice likely to be affected by depression [AOR:2.18]. Patients with stressful life events in the past were twelve times more likely to have depression compared to patients with no such events in the past [AOR: 12.33].Conclusion: More than one third of the diabetic patients have some degree of depression. Factors such as no schooling, being on insulin therapy, having other comorbid conditions along with diabetes and stressful life events in the past among diabetic patients kept them at higher risk of depression. These factors should be focused in program for prevention and control of depression among diabetic patients in Nepal.

haline dönüştü. Kudüs’teki egemenlik mücadelesinin başlıca araçlarından biri de
Osmanlı vatandaşı olmayan gayrimüslimlerce/ecnebilerce kutsal mekânlara yakın
yerlerden alınan arazilere inşa edilen kilise ve manastırlardı. Avrupalı
devletler, Osmanlı Devleti üzerindeki politik nüfuzu kullanılarak kilise ve
manastırlar inşa ettirdiler. Bu kilise ve manastırlar zaman içinde yine aynı
nüfuzu kullanarak başka imtiyazlar da elde etmek istediler. Bu imtiyazların
başında kilise ve manastırlara ait arazi ve emlâkin vergiden muaf olması gelmektedir.
Çalışmada ecnebi kilise ve manastırlarının bu talepleri ve Osmanlı Devleti’nin
bu taleplere karşı tutumu incelenmiştir. Çalışmanın temel kaynakları Osmanlı
arşivi ile bu konuda yapılan araştırmalardır.

The paper presents an overview of bioetanol production technologies. It is noted that world fuel ethanol production in 2017 amounted to more than 27,000 million gallons (80 million tons). Eight countries, namely the USA, Brazil, the EU, China, Canada, Thailand, Argentina, India, together produce about 98% of bioethanol. In Ukraine, the volume of bioethanol production by alcoholic factories in recent years has been gradually increasing and amounted to 2,992.8 ths. dal in 2017. The production of ethanol as an additive to gasoline, with regard to the raw materials used, as well as the corresponding technologies, is historically divided into three generations. The first generation of biofuels produced from food crops rich in sugar or starch is currently dominant.

Production of advanced biofuels from non-food crop feedstocks is limited. Output is anticipated to remain modest in the short term, as progress is needed to improve technology readiness. The main stages of bioethanol production from lignocellulosic raw materials are pre-treatment, enzymatic hydrolysis and fermentation. The pre-treatment process aims to reduce of sizes of raw material particles, provision of the components exposure (hemicellulose, cellulose, starch), provision of better access for the enzymes (in fermentative hydrolysis) to the surface of raw materials, and reduction of crystallinity degree of the cellulose matrix. The pre-treatment process is a major cost component of the overall process. The pre-treatment process is highly recommended as it gives subsequent or direct yield of the fermentable sugars, prevents premature degradation of the yielded sugars, prevents inhibitors formation prior hydrolysis and fermentation, lowers the processing cost, and lowers the demand of conventional energy in general. From the perspective of efficiency, promising methods of pre-treatment of lignocellulosic raw materials to hydrolysis are combined methods combining mechanical, chemical and physical mechanisms of influence on raw materials. One method that combines several physical effects on a treated substance is the discrete-pulsed energy input (DPIE) method. The DPIE method can be applied in the pre- treatment of lignocellulosic raw material in the technology bioethanol production for intensifying the process and reducing energy consumption.

Published: December 2018

O mercado farmacêutico vem apresentando um crescimento notável no Brasil e, com isso, as marcas pertencentes a esse segmento aderiram aos chamados “programas de fidelidade” como estratégia de marketing de relacionamento. Estratégia que se faz importante para que as redes possam personalizar seus serviços, fugindo do commodity do varejo, maximizando a perspectiva de valor do cliente, atingindo a fidelização. Realizou-se uma pesquisa exploratória aplicada, com o objetivo de entender a percepção dos usuários de programas de fidelidade. Foi adotada uma pesquisa quantitativa, por meio de uma survey, via correio eletrônico, como: o que o cliente busca em um programa de fidelização, o que enxerga como vantagens e o que é mais efetivo. A amostragem da pesquisa totalizou 8.203 sujeitos, predominantemente da região sul do Brasil. Em seguida, fez-se a análise e discussão dos resultados, na qual se constatou uma preferência dos sujeitos por marcas que possuem programas de fidelidade. Entretanto, os dados revelam que os entrevistados não são fiéis a uma única marca do setor. Com isso, contatou-se a importância de desenvolver um novo modelo de estratégia de fidelização. Diante dos dados apresentados, espera-se contribuir para os futuros estudos sobre marketing de relacionamento e programas de fidelidade aplicado às farmácias.

O objetivo deste estudo foi identificar os indicadores representativos de responsabilidade social, que uma Instituição Comunitária de Ensino Superior (ICES) deve evidenciar em suas páginas eletrônicas de Internet, considerando a percepção de seus discentes. A identificação foi efetuada de forma indutiva, utilizando-se de métodos da Grounded Theory, por meio da aplicação de formulário para um grupo de stakeholders, especificamente, discentes dos cursos de graduação em Ciências Contábeis e Administração de uma ICES do Estado do Rio Grande do Sul, escolhida por acessibilidade. O formulário continha 9 categorias de responsabilidade social identificadas na revisão da literatura: econômica e financeira, ética, governança, produtos e serviços, clientes, fornecedores, social, ambiental e público interno. Os discentes preencheram os formulários com informações do seu interesse. Como resultado da análise de conteúdo feita nos formulários respondidos, identificou-se 64 indicadores do interesse dos discentes. Esses indicadores foram observados nas páginas eletrônicas de Internet da ICES e constatou-se apenas 48, representando um índice de evidenciação de responsabilidade social de 75%. A relação de indicadores de responsabilidade social criada nesta pesquisa contribui com as políticas de evidenciação das ICES, pois demonstra os interesses dos discentes, um de seus públicos primários que devem ser considerados na sua prestação de contas.

Published: December 2018

Tujuan dari penelitian ini untuk membangun sebuah Sistem Pendukung Keputusan (SPK) Penilaian Kelayakan Kredit pada Koperasi Pegawai Republik Indonesia (KPRI) Edipeni Kepil Wonosobo. KPRI Edipeni merupakan koperasi menerima jasa simpan pinjam untuk para anggotanya. Dalam menentukan keputusan terhadap ajuan kredit para anggotanya, kepala koperasi masih bersifat subjektif tanpa adanya perhitungan prosentase nilai kelayakan kredit anggota sehingga keputusannya masih dirasa kurang tepat. Oleh karena itu perlu dibuat sebuah Sistem Pendukung Keputusan (SPK) untuk mempermudah kepala koperasi dalam memutuskan ajuan kredit dari anggotanya akan disetujui atau ditolak. Sistem Pendukung Keputusan ini menggunakan metode Simple Additive Weighting yaitu sebuah metode dengan cara menjumlahkan bobot rating kinerja dari semua atribut pada masing-masing alternatif. Hasil penelitian ini adalah menghasilkan nilai kelayakan anggota yang mengajukan kredit pada KPRI Edipeni yang berupa prosentase kelayakan kredit beserta kategorinya. Nilai prosentase tersebut dijadikan acuan bagi kepala koperasi untuk memutuskan apakah ajuan kredit dari anggotanya akan disetujui atau ditolak.
