Authors: Dr. Afroz Haider Rizvi
Published: November 2020

Training wise professional adjustment status of teachers was examined by the investigator on a sample of 792 teachers. Teachers have been classified into two categories viz. trained and untrained teachers. To evaluate the status of professional adjustment of teachers, a tool viz. “Manual on Teachers Professional Adjustment” was used which was prepared and standardized by the investigator. The reliability and validity of the tool were found 0.89 and 0.66 respectively. On the basis of percentile rank and professional adjustment scores, professional adjustment status of teachers have been classified into three levels viz. well-adjusted, average-adjusted low-adjusted. Analysis of data was done by t-test and χ2 test through SPSS version 13.0 and Prism 3.0. This study reveals that there is no significant difference between professional adjustment of trained and untrained teachers. But, there is significant difference of proportions (percentages) between trained and untrained teachers at three levels of professional adjustment. In well adjusted level, highest percentage is of trained teachers, while lowest percentage is recorded for untrained teachers. In mediocre group, higher proportion is reported for untrained teachers, while lowest proportion is recorded for married teachers. The trained teachers are ahead of others in low adjusted count, while untrained group to be lowest.

Authors: Altaf Ahmad Malla  , Nasir Mohammad Bhat
Published: November 2020

Religion and spirituality exert a significant role in the lives of many individuals, including people with schizophrenia. However, the contribution of religion and spirituality to various domains (psychopathology, explanatory models, treatment seeking, treatment adherence, outcome, etc.) has not received much attention. In this article, we review the exiting data with regards to the relationship of religion, spirituality, and various domains in patients with schizophrenia. Available evidence suggests that for some patients, religion instills hope, purpose, and meaning in their lives, whereas for others, it induces spiritual despair. Patients with schizophrenia also exhibit religious delusions and hallucinations. Further, there is some evidence to suggest that religion influences the level of psychopathology. Religion and religious practices also influence social integration, risk of suicide attempts, and substance use. Religion and spirituality also serves as an effective method of coping with the illness. Religion also influences the treatment compliance and outcome in patients with schizophrenia

Neuropsychology is the scientific study of the relationship between brain and behavior. It bridges the disciplines of neurology and cognitive psychology and seeks to describe and explain how cognitions, emotions and behavior are mediated by different processes in brain. In clinical settings, different neurological and psychiatric disorders effect psychological functioning of the patients in terms of information processing, sensory-perceptual processes, attention, execution and other order brain functions. Neuropsychological functioning can be assessed by various sets of neuropsychological batteries available in India. It helps to understand the patients’ neuropsychological deficits and strengths too. The neuropsychological functioning helps in formulating cognitive retraining and holistic management of brain related and psychiaric disorders. The term syndrome entails the group and cluster of symptoms associated with any clinical condition. This paper will briefly focus on the anatomy, functions and various syndromes associated with parietal and occipital lobes and their corrosponding neuropsychological issues.

Interactive Computation of Timbre Spaces for Sound Synthesis Control
Authors: Fasciani Stefano
Published: November 2020

Expressive sonic interaction with sound synthesizers requires the control of a continuous and high dimensional space. Further, the relationship between synthesis variables and timbre of the generated sound is typically complex or unknown to users. In previous works, we presented an unsupervised mapping method based on machine listening and machine learning techniques, which addresses these challenges by providing a low-dimensional and perceptually related timbre control space. The mapping maximizes the breadth of the explorable sonic space covered by the sound synthesizer, and minimizes possible timbre losses due to the low­-dimensional control. The mapping is generated automatically by a system requiring little input from users. In this paper we present an improved method and an optimized implementation that drastically reduce the time for timbre analysis and mapping computation. Here we introduce the use of the extreme learning machines for the regression from control to timbre spaces, and an interactive approach for the analysis of the synthesizer sonic response, performed as users explore the parameters of the instrument. This work is implemented in a generic and open-source tool that enables the computation of ad hoc synthesis mappings through timbre spaces, facilitating and speeding up the workflow to get a customized sonic control system.

Effect of ESG Activities and Firm’s Financial Characteristics
Authors: Kang Won , Jung Mookwon
Published: November 2020

In this study, we examine how environmental, social, and corporate governance (ESG) activities differently affect firm value depending on a firm’s financial characteristics. The qualitative aspect of ESG activities, which is not reflected in ESG scores, is valued in the market based on a firm’s financial characteristics and is the motivation for the present study. We conducted empirical analyses employing multiple ESG score sets obtained from two different ESG evaluation institutions for the recent four-year period. We found that ESG performance has a positive effect on firm value, though some variations occur across the ESG element types, which is consistent with previous results. The positive effect is more pronounced in firms with higher profitability or foreign ownership, which implies that ESG activities can have a greater impact on firms with a strong financial ability to sustain these activities or those with disciplined foreign investors to monitor transparency. These results are robust to the two-stage least squares analysis to capture the reverse causality between ESG performance and financial variables. Our findings suggest that to maximize the effect of ESG activities, firms need to build market confidence through financial efforts, such as enhancing profitability and attracting foreign investments.

Finite Element Analysis of Functionally Graded Beams using Different Beam Theories
Authors: Rahmani Farshad , Kamgar Reza , Rahgozar Reza
Published: November 2020

The present study deals with buckling, free vibration, and bending analysis of Functionally Graded (FG) and porous FG beams based on various beam theories. Equation of motion and boundary conditions are derived from Hamilton’s principle, and the finite element method is adopted to solve problems numerically. The FG beams are graded through the thickness direction, and the material distribution is controlled by power-law volume fraction. The effects of the different values of the power-law index, porosity exponent, and different boundary conditions on bending, natural frequencies and buckling characteristics are also studied. A new function is introduced to approximate the transverse shear strain in higher-order shear deformation theory. Furthermore, shifting the position of the neutral axis is taken into account. The results obtained numerically are validated with results obtained from ANSYS and those available in the previous work. The results of this study specify the crucial role of slenderness ratio, material distribution, and porosity condition on the characteristic of FG beams. The deflection results obtained by the proposed function have a maximum of six percent difference when the results are compared with ANSYS. It also has better results in comparison with the Reddy formulae, especially when the beam becomes slender. Doi: 10.28991/cej-2020-03091604 Full Text: PDF

Published: November 2020

An assessment of the protective capacity of the vadose zone overlying the aquifer systems in the Kaltungo area was carried out to determine its influence on groundwater quality. Applying the schlumberger array with a maximum electrode spread AB/2 = 100m through VES, thirty water well points were surveyed using Omega terrameter (PIOSO1) resistivity meter. The field data was first subjected to manual interpretation through curve marching and then digitized modeled curves using computer software. The interpreted data revealed that the area is characterized by eleven different curve types representing three to five geo electrical layers. In order to assess the protective capacity of the vadoze zone over the aquifer systems, the longitudinal conductance (S) and transverse resistance (T) (secondary geoelectric parameters) were computed from the primary data using the Dar Zarouk formula. The values of S obtained range from 0.0018 to 0.4056 ohms with a mean value of 0.0135 ohms while the values of T range from 0.55 ohms to 1195.68 ohms with a mean value of 39.84 ohms. The values of S and T obtained reveal that 90% of probed points has poor protective capacity, 10 % has moderate protective capacity and 83 % has high transmissivity, 17 % has intermediate transmissivity. The T and S values are skewed towards poorly protective capacity thus making groundwater in the area highly vulnerable to contamination from the surface. To achieve good groundwater quality in the area, proper completion of newly constructed wells should install protective casing through the entire vadose zone.

MULHERES E DEFICIÊNCIA: DIÁLOGOS POSSÍVEIS?
Authors: Piluso Roberta Pinheiro
Published: November 2020

Esse trabalho pretende convocar a refletir sobre as relações e articulações entre gênero e deficiência, tema que ainda é periférico nos estudos acadêmicos contemporâneos. A partir das inquietações trazidas pelo meu trabalho na Comissão dos Direitos da Pessoa com Deficiência da OAB/RJ, há a pretensão de estudar o tema da interface entre a epistemologia feminista e os estudos sobre deficiência, especialmente sob a ótica da visibilidade das mulheres com deficiência e das mulheres cuidadoras de pessoas com deficiência diante da sociedade atual, do diálogo interseccional entre gênero e deficiência e da perspectiva do cuidado e da interdependência como valores humanos e direitos fundamentais que se aplicam a pessoas com e sem deficiência. Nesse sentido, pretende-se compreender a real importância da transversalidade da deficiência nas políticas de gênero, a partir das novas reflexões político-teóricas do feminismo, propondo-se a incorporação de demandas na área da deficiência.
OS OBSTÁCULOS AO EXERCÍCIO DA JURISDIÇÃO CONSTITUCIONAL E A SAÍDA DADA PELAS AUDIÊNCIAS PÚBLICAS
Authors: Burlamaqui Bernardo Camargo
Published: November 2020

O presente artigo analisa a contribuição do neoconstitucionalismo ao exercício do controle de constitucionalidade realizado pelo Supremo Tribunal Federal (STF) a partir de duas de suas principais características: a força normativa do texto constitucional e a constitucionalização do direito. Partindo da teoria do neoconstitucionalismo explorada por Luís Roberto Barroso, investiga-se as dificuldades, de caráter científico e político, que se apresentam na jurisdição constitucional como consequências do robustecimento da Constituição, que deixa de ser mero documento político e passa a ser importante instrumento jurídico. A pesquisa é qualitativa e recorre a alguns pontuais julgados do STF, marcados pela convocação de audiências públicas, a fim de analisar como tal mecanismo serve aos Ministros da Corte, já que cada vez mais decidem eles sobre matérias das quais não possuem costume de se ocupar. Além de avaliar as audiências públicas como mecanismo para tentar se superar a falta de conhecimento científico sobre determinados temas, avaliar-se-á, do mesmo modo, como são elas convocadas para que obstáculos políticos sejam ultrapassados, especialmente em processos de grande repercussão em que se questiona se o Supremo Tribunal Federal, enquanto casa do Poder Judiciário, teria a verdadeira legitimidade para decidir.

Published: November 2020

Este artigo tem como objetivo refletir sobre a questão da acessibilidade urbana na cidade do Rio de Janeiro, sobretudo para pessoas com deficiência. Primeiramente será discutido o conceito de mobilidade urbana, acessibilidade e desenho universal. A seguir será feito um levantamento das políticas públicas existentes, para verificar, a partir dos estudos de Henri Lefebvre (2001) se as políticas criadas atendem as demandas sócias do cidadão com deficiência. As conclusões indicam que a Politica Pública de Mobilidade Urbana (PNMU) é clara no que tange as ações que precisam ser implementadas com vistas a atender às pessoas com deficiências (PcDs). Mas efetivamente os resultados esperados não foram encontrados na pesquisa bibliográfica consultada, trazendo à consciência da necessidade de uma pesquisa de campo bem direcionada, para recolher dados concisos ao alcance de estudiosos e interessados no assunto de extrema relevância. Tais considerações deixam ao leitor algumas indagações cabíveis a profundas reflexões quanto a alcunha de “Cidade Maravilhosa”, atribuída a essa megalópole cidade do Rio de Janeiro.

As políticas socioeducativas oportunizam a reintegração do menor ao ambiente social, contudo, apesar da institucionalização de políticas públicas voltadas para o combate à violência, criminalidade e desigualdade, os programas vigentes encontram-se longe de atender de maneira específica os objetivos aos quais se destinam, apesar Doutrina da Proteção Integral.
O PATRIMÔNIO CULTURAL EM TEMPOS DE PANDEMIA: o direito à cultura para além da arte e do entretenimento
Authors: Seixas Antônio
Published: November 2020

Na Ordem Constitucional da Cultura, é dever do Poder Público promover e proteger os bens culturais materiais e imateriais, portadores de referenciais identitários dos diferentes grupos formadores da sociedade brasileira. As medidas de enfrentamento da Covid-19 levaram ao fechamento de cinemas, bibliotecas, museus e outros equipamentos culturais. As políticas culturais tem se orientado, desde então, para o incentivo a atividades artísticas e de entretenimento, por meio de editais de fomento, que não contemplam ações de preservação dos bens culturais. O objetivo do presente estudo é analisar o impacto das medidas de enfrentamento à pandemia sobre a ação fiscalizadora dos órgãos de proteção dos bens culturais. A metodologia utilizada caracterizou-se pela pesquisa descritiva e exploratória, de natureza qualitativa, em fontes oficiais, permitindo compreender a realidade e demonstrar a importância de se manter ações de preservação do Patrimônio Cultural, em tempos de calamidade pública.
EMPREGADAS DOMÉSTICAS NEGRAS NO CENÁRIO DA PANDEMIA: aspectos sobre a vulnerabilidade
Authors: Duarte Isabella
Published: November 2020

O trabalho em questão busca refletir sobre o impacto da pandemia do COVID-19 em relação às trabalhadoras domésticas. Através de uma análise teórica embasada em pesquisadoras como: Sonia Maria Giacomini, Kimberlé W. Crenshaw, Jurema Brites e Lélia Gonzales, é possível analisar como o contexto histórico e social influenciam diretamente na atual dinâmica trabalhista. O racismo estrutural em conjunto com a interseccionalidade faz com que o perfil da profissão seja majoritariamente de mulheres negras e oriundas de famílias com baixa renda. No momento presente, devido a não observância das recomendações provenientes da Organização Mundial da Saúde em conjunto com a precarização do serviço doméstico, essas mulheres precisam colocar a si mesmas e as suas famílias em risco de vida, sob pena da perca de emprego em tempos de crise. Além disso, por meio de casos concretos evidencia-se a falta de direitos para com essa parcela vulnerável da população brasileira. Portanto, visando ressaltar a responsabilidade do Estado, se destaca uma relação entre a omissão estatal devido à falta de políticas públicas e a fiscalização inadequada do serviço. É nesse contexto que o estudo salienta uma violência velada quanto a essas mulheres, uma vez que o Estado Democrático de Direito deveria guiar os seus preceitos através da dignidade humana.
REFLEXOS DO MACHISMO ESTRUTURAL BRASILEIRO EM TEMPOS DE COVID 19: quando o distanciamento social é tão letal quanto o vírus

O presente artigo se trata de uma pesquisa bibliográfica, através da metodologia exploratória, que ergueu seu referencial teórico na busca por levantamento de dados em tempos de pandemia, no qual o número de denúncias feitas em relação a violência doméstica aumentou 34% entre março e abril deste ano em comparação ao mesmo período do ano anterior, conforme dados recentes que serão discutidos nessa produção. Esse aumento exponencial de casos de agressões e feminicidios reafirmam a preponderância de relacionamentos abusivos no Brasil e o quanto a cultura do silêncio das vítimas de violência ainda é latente e estruturalmente construído. Desde a falas como “em briga de marido e mulher ninguém mete a colher até “apanha porque gosta fica porque quer”. Nesse cenário pandêmico, em que o distanciamento social é a orientação precípua da OMS, o silêncio dessas mulheres e o consequente afastamento de amigos e parentes próximos torna-se efetivamente os maiores cúmplices da violência de gênero.
Bazı Sentetik Antioksidanların 2, 2-difenil-1-pikrilhidrazil (DPPH) Radikal Süpürme Kapasitesi Yöntemi ile Antioksidan Aktivitelerinin Araştırılması
Authors: YILMAZ Özge , BOYACIOĞLU Murat
Published: November 2020

Serbest radikaller, oksidatif stres ve antioksidanlar güncel olan ve yaygın olarak tartışılan konulardır. Canlı fizyolojisinde oksidatif stresin meydana getirdiği hasar sebebiyle antioksidanlara olan ilgi oldukça artmıştır. Antioksidanların veya tüketilen besin maddelerinin ne derecede antioksidan etkili olduğunu belirlemek ve karşılaştırmak için çeşitli tayin yöntemleri mevcuttur. Bu çalışmanın amacı, bazı sentetik antioksidanların antioksidan aktivitelerini 2,2-difenil-1-pikrilhidrazil (DPPH) antioksidan kapasite tayin yöntemi ile belirlemek ve karşılaştırmaktır. Bu amaçla 0-400 µg/ml konsantrasyonlarda hazırlanan vitamin C, troloks, kuersetin, ellagik asit, kurkumin, vitamin E, resveratrol ve silimarinin radikal süpürme aktiviteleri DPPH kapasite tayin yöntemi ile belirlendi. Antioksidanların farklı konsantrasyonlarına karşı hesaplanan DPPH radikalini süpürme aktivitelerinin % inhibisyon değerleri ile çizilen grafiklerden Etkin Konsantrasyon 50 (Efficient Concentration 50, EC50) değerleri hesaplandı. Çalışmada standart olarak kullanılan vitamin C ve troloksun EC50 değerleri sırası ile 1,697 µg/ml ve 1,729 µg/ml olarak belirlendi. Standart ile karşılaştırıldığında en düşük antioksidan süpürücü aktiviteye sahip olan antioksidanın silimarin (EC50=7,812 µg/ml) ve en yüksek antioksidan süpürücü aktiviteye sahip olan antioksidanın ise kuersetin (EC50=1,722 µg/ml) olduğu görüldü. Elde edilen sonuçlar ışığında hayvan deneyi çalışmalarında tercih edilen ve sık kullanılan sentetik antioksidanların seçiminde antioksidan kapasitelerinin de göz önünde bulundurulması ve araştırılması yapılan maddeye göre antioksidan kapasite tayin yöntemlerinin seçilmesi gerektiği sonucuna varıldı.
A quem confiar minha tristeza? Faces e perspectivas do cuidado ao luto
Authors: Luna Ivânia Jann
Published: November 2020

Neste livro destacamos a compreensão do cuidado ao luto como o processo compartilhado de dar sentido às vivências de perda e que é tecido pela pessoa enlutada em conjunto com todos os relacionamentos sociais que lhe possibilitaram externalizar o sofrimento e reconstruir significados e propósitos de vida. Para tanto, o cuidado ao luto tem duas faces e pode ser abordados por muitas perspectivas. Aqui ressaltamos tanto a visão de quem vive uma perda na vida adulta, e tece o seu cuidado pessoal, quanto a visão de quem está envolvido com o apoio profissional ao luto, por meio de conceitos e práticas psicológicas de luto. Cito como relevantes as abordagens preventivista, clínica e de promoção à saúde no luto, e que foram construídas, sobretudo, ao longo do século XX e início do século XXI. Considerando essas visões, apresentamos revisões da literatura, projetos de trabalho e intervenções que são realizadas pelo Laboratório de Processos Psicossociais e Clínicos no Luto (LAPPSILu/UFSC), especialmente as que foram direcionadas à comunidade universitária e externa à UFSC. Destaco também a importância do profissional de saúde tecer o seu cuidado pessoal diante da comunicação de notícias difíceis e vivência de perdas, quer seja no seu trabalho ou na vida pessoal.

"PERAN PERAWAT DALAM PENGAMBILAN KEPUTUSAN PADA PASIEN DI RUANG GAWAT DARURAT"
Authors: Sitorus Awina Milla Shilmy
Published: November 2020

Instalasi Gawat Darurat (IGD) merupakan unit pelayanan yang didirikan oleh rumah sakit untuk memberikan pelayanan gawat darurat. Pasien yang datang ke IGD merupakan pasien yang membutuhkan pertolongan cepat dan tepat sesuai dengan kondisi klinis yang dialaminya (Kementerian Kesehatan Republik Indonesia, 2009). Triage diartikan sebagai proses memilah-milah pasien menurut tingkat keparahan cedera atau kesakitannya dan memprioritaskan pengobatan menurut ketersediaan sumber daya dan kemungkinan pasien bisa bertahan hidup (Gerdtz and Bucknall, 2001). Sistem triage di Indonesia belum terstandart secara nasional, meskipun Departemen Kesehatan telah menetapkan sistem triage nasional akan tetapi pelaksanaannya belum teraplikasi secara nasional. Secara konsep, perawat merupakan petugas kesehatan yang mempunyai peran dan tanggung jawab utama dalam melakukan triage di (IGD) (Andersson, Omberg & Svedlund, 2006).Institusi Kesehatan dunia tahun 2017 mengindentifikasi 98.000 pasien meninggal setiap tahun akibat pengambilan keputusan yang buruk dalam perawatan kesehatan. Pengambilan keputusan sangat penting dalam menentukan asuhan keperawatan kepada pasien. Perawat harus mempertimbangkan banyak faktor yang berpotensi mempengaruhi proses pengambilan keputusan dalam memenuhi kebutuhan pasien (Cristine W. Nibbelink, 2017). Perawat harus mempunyai kemampuan yang baik untuk pasien maupun dirinya didalam menghadapi masalah yang menyangkut etika. Seseorang harus berpikir secara rasional, bukan emosional dalam membuat keputusan etis. Keputusan tersebut membutuhkan keterampilan berpikir secara sadar yang diperlukan untuk menyelamatkan keputusan pasien dan memberikan asuhan. Kemampuan membuat keputusan masalah etis menjadi salah satu persyaratan bagi perawat untuk menjalankan praktik keperawatan professional (Haryono, 2012).
