How can the past inform and benefit research-for-development interventions? The value of reflexive and participatory approaches
Authors: Ferré Marie , Blundo Canto Genowefa , Romémont Aurelle de , Maagoum Soh Berline Africa , Binot Aurélie
Published: December 2022

Development projects are often anchored in short timeframes that limit the possibility of creating a continuum across projects and building a collective “living memory” based on the accumulation of experiences and interactions. Taking stock of the influences of projects on a place is important for research-for-development projects, which are characterised by long-term dynamics and a learning posture. Impact evaluation approaches can help capture, develop, and mobilise this “living memory”. Using the case of the French Agricultural Research Centre for International Development (CIRAD), we examine how researchers at an institute with a development mandate capitalise their experiences. We explore the added value of reflexive approaches developed by CIRAD in particular the role played by participation in building collective memories at different levels. The results provide insights into how to integrate the past into the design and implementation of research interventions, and thus increase relevance of projects. It offers a methodological reflection on the creation and use of research-for-development memory.
Pressions sur les terres au Sud-Kivu (RDC). Quelle alternative face à la saturation agraire sur l’île d’Idjwi ?
Authors: Baraka Akilimali Joël , Bahati Shamamba Dieudonné , Ansoms An
Published: December 2022

La présente recherche requestionne le débat des pressions foncières dans l’Est de la RDC en sortant d’une explication devenue classique sur l’origine des conflits fonciers autour des variables « terre - pouvoir - identité ». Elle met en exergue la variable « démographie » et son corollaire de la « rareté de la terre » comme donne inéluctable de la crise agraire dans un contexte particulier d’insularité. Bien que la forte saturation agraire observée sur l’île d’Idjwi soit doublée de fortes inégalités dans la répartition de la terre, l’analyse insiste sur la faible conflictualité violente du fait de l’absence de politisation agraire par des élites locales. L’analyse met également en exergue la décongestion foncière rurale à travers des migrations permanentes vers les centres semi-ruraux ou vers les grandes villes. L’absence de grands conflits fonciers est également expliquée par la capacité pour les populations rurales à innover dans les systèmes agraires contre l’insécurité foncière et alimentaire, par le recours aux savoirs locaux et aux arrangements souples sur les plantations et autres grandes exploitations foncières, à la base de la résilience agraire locale.

Published: December 2022

The sudden outbreak of COVID-19 has dealt a huge blow to traditional education and training companies. Institutions use the WeChat platform to attract users, but how to identify high-quality users has always been a difficult point for enterprises. In this paper, researchers proposed a classification algorithm based on SMOTE and the improved AdaBoost, which fuses feature information weights and sample weights to effectively solve the problems of overfitting and sample imbalance. To justify the study, it was compared with other traditional machine-learning algorithms. The accuracy and recall of the model increased by 19% and 36%, respectively, and the AUC value reached 0.98, indicating that the model could effectively identify the user's purchase intention. The proposed algorithm also ensures that it works well in spam identification and fraud detection. This research is of great significance for educational institutions to identify high-quality users of the WeChat platform and increase purchase conversion rate.

Published: December 2022

El problema de la inserción y/o consolidación de las mujeres en la ciencia ha sido muy estudiado. Sin embargo, el debate pareciera no avanzar sobre el problema de la experiencia simbólica de las mujeres en la ciencia con un menor tratamiento empírico. El presente texto, utilizando un instrumento que busca comprender si existen patrones de homofilia de género en un grupo diverso de científicos chilenos. Es decir, busca revelar si las personas que se dedican a la ciencia tienen una tendencia a mencionar a otros como sus referentes sólo si cumplen alguna condición -en este caso, de género- que sea similar a la suya. Los resultados muestran una clara tendencia en la forma en que las personas que se dedican a la ciencia evalúan la influencia de otros en función de su homofilia de género. Este factor interviniente puede estar jugando un rol clave en la reproducción de las desigualdades y asimetrías constitutivas del campo científico chileno.

Anopheles albimanus is a Potential Alphavirus Vector in the Americas
Authors: Terradas Gerard , Novelo Mario , Metz Hillery , Brustolin Marco , Rasgon Jason L.
Published: December 2022

Despite its ecological flexibility and geographical co-occurrence with human pathogens, little is known about the ability of Anopheles albimanus to transmit arboviruses. To address this gap, we challenged An. albimanus females with four alphaviruses and one flavivirus and monitored the progression of infections. We found this species is an efficient vector of the alphaviruses Mayaro virus, O’nyong-nyong virus, and Sindbis virus, although the latter two do not currently exist in its habitat range. An. albimanus was able to become infected with Chikungunya virus, but virus dissemination was rare (indicating the presence of a midgut escape barrier), and no mosquito transmitted. Mayaro virus rapidly established disseminated infections in An. albimanus females and was detected in the saliva of a substantial proportion of infected mosquitoes. Consistent with previous work in other anophelines, we find that An. albimanus is refractory to infection with flaviviruses, a phenotype that did not depend on midgut-specific barriers. Our work demonstrates that An. albimanus may be a vector of neglected emerging human pathogens and adds to recent evidence that anophelines are competent vectors for diverse arboviruses.

Published: December 2022

El objetivo de esta  investigación consistió en analizar los juicios descriptivos expresados por los docentes en los boletines o reportes de evaluación que reciben los padres, representantes y estudiantes. Metodológicamente se realizó una investigación de análisis documental dentro del paradigma cualitativo, cuyo corpus estuvo conformado por 15 boletines intencionalmente elegidos por presentar mayores diferencias en las descripciones de comportamientos y logros. Los 305 juicios determinados se transcribieron y su contenido se analizó, categorizó y trianguló. Se encontró que el 98% (299 juicios) son descriptivos basados en criterios, tres (1%) son juicios por referencia a la norma y tres (1%), por referencia a sí mismo. Se halló 6 (2%), referencias al nivel de logro del aprendizaje. Se concluye que los boletines contienen juicios descriptivos de actuaciones, pero no indican el nivel de logro del aprendizaje alcanzado, dificultando comprender el verdadero progreso del estudiante, por lo que los boletines no están cumpliendo su función de retroalimentación.

La profesión docente, es sin lugar a dudas, una de las más sobresalientes funciones dentro del ámbito social -principalmente por su periódica presencia en la formación educativa. Sin embargo, no se encuentra exenta de especulaciones, exageraciones, inexactitudes y/o teorías sesgadas acerca de los aspectos inherentes a la formación, el quehacer y campo de acción; envolviéndola inevitablemente en una serie de enigmas que fortalecen los mitos en torno a una profesión tan legendaria como esta. De esta manera, el propósito del estudio, fue indagar de forma rigurosa, el contexto en el que emergen estas preconcepciones en torno a la profesión y, así exponer algunos elementos, analizarlos, y discutirlos, para que estos mitos puedan ser confrontados con la realidad. Por ende, el estudio fue abordado bajo un enfoque cualitativo, con alcance de tipo exploratorio y diseño de investigación documental. Bajo este enfoque, tomando en cuenta referencias bibliográficas del tópico y discusiones con docentes de diferentes instituciones educativas en países de la América Latina, se identificaron 17 proposiciones que catalogan como mitos y se discuten en este documento. El estudio concluyó que, la importancia de esclarecer los mitos de la profesión docente frente a la sociedad, permitirá de forma subsecuente, exhibir el escenario real de los docentes, produciendo así un conjunto de variables adicionales que permitan reflexionar y contribuir a las reformas y acciones necesarias que circunscriben esta relevante labor.

Causas del plagio académico en estudiantes universitarios de educación: percepción docente de una universidad dominicana.
Authors: Escalante José Luis , Martínez Solanlly
Published: December 2022

El plagio de trabajos académicos entre estudiantes es una problemática muy frecuente en casi todos los niveles educativos. Esta acción lacera la adquisición de aprendizajes significativos porque interrumpe los procesos cognitivos más profundos para la asimilación y acomodación de los contenidos. Por ello, es importante indagar las principales causas que motivan a los estudiantes a realizar plagios en sus asignaciones, para implementar posibles soluciones. Por tal motivo, el objetivo del presente estudio se orientó a identificar desde la opinión de los docentes las principales causas del plagio entre estudiantes universitarios de educación.  Se siguió una metodología con un enfoque cuantitativo en un diseño descriptivo. La muestra fue intencional con 119 docentes del área de educación de una universidad de la República Dominicana. A esta población se le aplicó un instrumento ad hoc con dos dimensiones (Mecanismos de control del docente para detectar y detener el plagio y causas del plagio entre los estudiantes) en 32 preguntas y, una escala de Likert de valoración de las habilidades de los estudiantes para realizar los trabajos académicos. Los datos obtenidos se trataron en porcentajes de la frecuencia absoluta. Los resultados demuestran que el plagio académico entre los estudiantes universitarios tiene varias causas. Estos datos contradicen la percepción que los estudiantes realizan regularmente plagio por comodidad y la cultura de lo fácil. Entre los principales motivos para el plagio se enumeran el mal manejo del tiempo, hábitos de estudios no adecuados, la falta de sistema de control antiplagio de los docentes, debilidad en la formación para realizar trabajos académicos y por las facilidades que ofrece internet para copiar información. Se concluye que el plagio tiene múltiples causas, y se hace necesario realizar en los centros educativos actividades para el manejo del tiempo y formación sistemática para desarrollar trabajos académicos; apegados a las normas de las referencias consultadas.

Son yıllarda 3B yazıcı teknolojileri, bu teknolojilerde kullanılan baskı materyalleri ve yazılımları giderek yaygınlaşmaya başlamıştır. Üretilen parçaların boyutlarındaki sınırlılık sebebiyle 3B yazıcı ile üretilen parçaların birleştirilmesi konusunda çalışmalar yapılmaktadır. Bu çalışmalarda, diğer birleştirme yöntemlerinden daha ekonomik ve pratik olmasından dolayı yapıştırma tekniği öne çıkmaktadır. Fakat yazıcı ile üretilen parçaların düşük yüzey enerjilerine sahip olmalarından dolayı ekstra yüzey işlemleri yapılmadan birleştirilmeleri zordur. Yapıştırma işleminin etkili olabilmesi için yapıştırıcı tipi, yüzeyin hazırlanması, yapıştırma kalınlığı ve yapıştırma işlemi boyunca uygulanan basıncın optimizasyonu gereklidir. Bu çalışmada 3B yazıcı ile PLA Plus filamentten üretilen farklı doluluk oranlarındaki parçalar (%20 ve %100) JB Kwick Weld yapıştırıcı kullanılarak birleştirilmiştir. Yapıştırma bağlantılarında sıkıştırma için yaygın olarak kullanılan metal klips uygulaması ve tasarım/imalatı yapılan bir kalıp kullanılmıştır. Yapıştırma yüzeyinin hazırlanmasında mekanik aşındırma yöntemi (240 SiC ve 600 SiC zımparalama) tercih edilmiştir. Yapıştırma işlemi sonrasında bağlantı mekanik özellikleri çekme testi ile belirlenmiştir. Yapılan deneysel çalışmalar sonucunda doluluk oranının artmasıyla, parçanın mukavemet değerinde artış olduğu görülmüştür. Yüzey hazırlık işlemlerinin ve baskı/basınç tipi seçiminin bağlantı mukavemetini doğrudan etkilediği görülmüştür. En yüksek bağlantı dayanımı, iki farklı doluluk oranında da 240 SiC zımpara yüzey hazırlığı ve metal klips uygulaması kullanıldığında elde edilmiştir.

Günümüzde insanlar daha iyi bir iş, sağlık, eğitim gibi isteğe bağlı nedenlerle veya savaş, doğal afet, dini, siyasi ve etnik baskılar gibi zorunlu nedenlerle göç etmektedir. Bu göç hareketleri sonucunda da ülkelerinden, ailelerinden ve/veya arkadaşlarından ayrılmaktadırlar. Göç hareketi insanları, özellikle de savunmasız konumda olan çocukları önemli ölçüde etkilemektedir. Göç hareketine maruz kalan çocuklar beslenme, barınma ve sağlık gibi birçok konuda yeterli desteği alamamaktadır. Öğrencilerin bu ihtiyaçları karşılansa dahi iletişim sorunu, uyum sorunu ve maddi sorunlar yaşamakta, bu sorunlar nedeniyle de eğitimlerini sürdürememektedirler. Eğitim haklarından mahrum kalan bu öğrenciler, gelecekte daha iyi bir iş için diğer insanlarla rekabet edemeyebilirler. Üstelik eğitim almayan bu çocuklar, topluma faydalı birer insan olmak yerine suça yönelebilirler. Bu nedenle herhangi bir sebeple göç ederek Türkiye’ye gelen öğrencilerin eğitim almasına etki eden sorunların belirlenmesi ve çözülmesi gerekmektedir. Ancak bu şekilde öğrencilerin topluma faydalı birer insan olması sağlanabilir. Bu doğrultuda araştırmamızın amacı göçmen öğrencilerin yaşadığı sorunları, diğer paydaşların (öğretmen, diğer öğrenciler ve veliler) bu öğrencilerle ilgili düşüncelerini ve öğretmenlerin göçmen öğrencilere eğitim verme sürecinde bir destek alıp almadığını belirlemektir. Bu amacı gerçekleştirmek için araştırmada, nitel araştırma desenlerinden fenomenoloji kullanılmıştır. Araştırmanın katılımcıları amaçlı örnekleme türlerinden ölçüt örnekleme tekniği kullanılarak belirlenmiştir. Ölçütler; “En az 5 yıl deneyime sahip olma”, “Sınıfında en az 1 göçmen öğrenci olma” olarak belirlenmiş ve bu doğrultuda 9 sınıf öğretmeni ile görüşme yapılmıştır. Veri toplama aracı olarak ise yarı yapılandırılmış görüşme formu kullanılmıştır. Araştırma sonucunda ulaşılan bulgular betimsel ve içerik analiz teknikleri kullanılarak çözümlenmiştir. Araştırmada sınıf öğretmenlerinin neredeyse tamamının sınıfında göçmen öğrenci istemediği, göçmen öğrencileri istememelerinin başlıca nedenlerinin seviye farkı, müfredatın göçmen öğrencilere dönük olmaması, göçmen öğrencilerin davranış problemleri sergilemesi, uyum sorunu ve iletişim sorunu yaşamaları olduğu bulgularına ulaşılmıştır. Ayrıca öğretmenler göçmen öğrencilere eğitim verme sürecinde herhangi bir kurumdan, kuruluştan materyal, kitap vb. anlamda destek almadıklarını belirtmişlerdir. Yine öğretmenlerin büyük çoğunluğu göçmen öğrencilerin sorunlarına müdahaleye dönük bir eğitim almadıklarını belirtmişlerdir. Son olarak öğretmenler göçmen öğrencilerin sorunlarının giderilebilmesi için önce dil eğitimi almalılar, hayat şartları iyileştirilmeli, velilerin eğitim sürecine katılmasına dönük çalışmalar yapılmalı, özel alt sınıf açılmalı gibi önerilerde bulunmuşlardır.

Published: December 2022

El objetivo de este trabajo, es presentar una aproximación al concepto de colonialidad y determinar las características de este concepto en estudios publicados en el área contable. El trabajo se circunscribió dentro de una investigación cualitativa de alcance descriptivo, por lo que para su desarrollo se empleó la técnica de revisión de literatura científica.  Para la búsqueda de trabajos publicados, ingresamos a la base de datos Scopus y se buscó artículos que tuvieran los términos “contabilidad”, “decolonialidad”, “postcolonialdiad” y “colonialidad” en el título, el resumen o las palabras clave. De esta manera, se identificaron 11 trabajos sobre el desarrollo de la colonialidad en estudios de contabilidad. Posteriormente, se compilaron los archivos en pdf con los textos completos y se procedió a identificar las principales características de cada trabajo, para realizar luego, el análisis del concepto de colonialidad, presentado en cada texto. En general los trabajos revisados develan que la colonialidad puede entenderse un  sistema  global, de  penetración  y  control  de  mercados,  que  sustenta  la  legitimación  del  control  económico  y  militar  de  una  nación  sobre  otra. En cuanto a los estudios consultados, la contabilidad es cuestionada, por homogenizar las prácticas contables y favorecer formas de poder, y control, a través del capitalismo financiero, sugiriendo que estas pueden considerarse un elemento constitutivo en el proceso de colonialidad
EVALUATION OF THE NEW CONCEPT OF INTEGRATED MONITORING INFORMATIVENESS ON THE EXAMPLE OF THE IVANKOVO RESERVOIR
Authors: Razumovsky L. , Chermnykh L. , Razumovsky V.
Published: December 2022

The paper presents results of one of the stages of integrated monitoring new concept testing. The novelty of the concept implies a joint analysis of diatom complexes from bottom sediment columns and modern phytoplankton complexes. The Ivankovo reservoir was chosen as the object of research. The results of the water quality assessment by the saprobity index (S) are considered. Biomonitoring did not reveal significant changes in the saprobity index (S). In the analysis of diatom complexes from columns of bottom sediments, the differentiation between the coastal zone and the open areas of the reservoir was established. In the coastal zone, an increase in the numerical values of S was registered. Saprobization of the coastal sections of the reservoir is presumably determined by a combination of factors: unauthorized construction, overgrowth of coastal zones, etc. The main objective of the work was to demonstrate the informative value of the new concept of integrated monitoring in assessing long-term transformations occurring in the reservoir.

Introduction: This study aims to assess the prevalence rates of mental disorders and chronic medical conditions in the Singapore resident population, and examine their association and respective impact on the quality of life. Materials and Methods: A household survey was carried out on a nationally representative sample of the adult (18 years and above) resident population. The main instrument used to establish the diagnosis of mental disorders is the World Mental Health Composite International Diagnostic Interview (WMH-CIDI). The mental disorders included in study were major depressive disorder, bipolar disorder, generalised anxiety disorder, obsessive compulsive disorder, alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence. Respondents were asked if they had any of the chronic medical conditions from a list of 15 conditions. Health-related quality of life was assessed with the EQ-5D. Results: Of the 6616 respondents, the lifetime prevalence of mental disorders was 12.0%, and that of chronic medical disorders were 42.6% and those with comorbid mental and medical disorders was 6.1%. The prevalence of any physical disorder in this population was high (42.6%). Among those with chronic physical disorders, 14.3% also had a mental disorder, and among those with mental disorders, more than half (50.6%) had a medical disorder. Most of the mental disorders were not treated. Males, Indians, older people, and those who were separated or divorced were more likely to have comorbidity. The health-related quality of life was significant worse in those with both mental and medical disorders compared to those with either mental or medical disorder. Conclusion: Our study re-emphasised the common occurrence of mental and medical disorders and the importance for an integrated care system with the capability to screen and treat both types of disorders. It also identified certain subpopulations which are more likely to have comorbidity for which a more targeted intervention could be planned.

The Implantable Loop Recorder—An Important Addition to the Armentarium in the Management of Unexplained Syncope
Authors: Shanmugam Nesan , Liew Reginald
Published: December 2022

Introduction: Unexplained syncope is a common condition with a significant impact both on the patient and on healthcare expenditure. Often, the diagnosis is hampered due to the temporary sporadic nature of the symptoms. Conventional monitoring methods have a low yield for identifying an abnormality during a spontaneous event. The implantable loop recorder (ILR), often underutilised, is an important diagnostic device that may fill this void in the early assessment of patients presenting with syncope. Materials and Methods: This article begins with 2 case vignettes which highlight the clinical utility of ILRs in making a definitive diagnosis and guiding subsequent management. This is followed by a review of the existing evidence for ILRs, including the recent international guidelines, underpinning the role of ILRs in the present management algorithm of patients presenting with unexplained syncope. The technical aspects and cost implications will also be reviewed. Results: Present evidence-based international guidelines have recommended the early use of ILRs in the management of patients with unexplained syncope. Furthermore, there may also be an important role for ILR use in patients with presumed epilepsy refractory to treatment and in the neurally mediated syncope cohort with recurrent symptoms. Cost benefit analysis also demonstrates advantages with early ILR use. Conclusion: The early use of ILR in selected patients remains an accurate, cost-effective, high yield tool for diagnosis and management of patients with unexplained syncope. However, its use should not detract from the importance of taking a detailed medical history and physical examination in the initial assessment to facilitate identification of the aetiology and risk stratification of patients.

Published: December 2022

Introduction: Sleep problems are common in all ages, but may be particularly acute in urban Singapore. This study aims to describe the sleep behaviour of, and to identify any sleep problems in, preschool children. Materials and Methods: This was a cross-sectional questionnaire survey of 372 children attending local childcare centers. The questionnaire was based on the Children’s Sleep Habits Questionnaire (CSHQ), a validated parent-report sleep screening questionnaire that contains 54 items identifying sleep behaviours in children. Results: A total of 372 (40.0%) children participated. The mean age was 4.1 (SD 1.3) years (range, 2 to 6 years). Average total sleep duration was 10.8 hours (SD 1.1) with average night-time sleep duration of 8.5 hours (SD 0.6) and average nap duration of 1.6 hours (SD 1.0). Co-sleeping was common; 80.9% of children shared a room with someone else. The most common sleep problems were in the domains of sleep resistance and morning behaviour; namely: requiring company to fall asleep (n = 272, 73.1%), being afraid to sleep alone (n = 228, 61.6%) and difficulty in waking up (n = 165, 44.4%). Among parents, 84.1 % (n = 313) perceived that their child’s sleep duration was adequate. Conclusion: The duration of sleep in the Singaporean preschool population sampled is significantly lower than recommended values and that of previously described Caucasian populations. Parental perception of sleep adequacy deviates from current recommendations. Given the clear relation of sleep duration with cognitive functioning, learning, and physical growth, this sleep deprivation should be addressed with parental education and opportunistic screening of sleep in well-child follow-ups.
