Actors‘ Scripts. From Handwritten Marginalia to ActingPractices of the Nineteenth Century
Authors: Jarząbek-Wasyl Dorota
Published: December 2024

The article focuses on the handwritten notes actors made in their scripts and the role these notes played in transmitting the text and acting practices across generations. Using the example of manuscripts covering 95 roles of Warsaw actor Alojzy Żółkowski Jr. (1814–1889), the author demonstrates that the physical interaction with the script, including repeated handling and memorisation, left a tactile imprint that connected actors across time. This sensory engagement turned the script into a living, evolving document, reflecting both the actor’s work and the ephemeral nature of performances.
Prospects for Widespread Adoption of Organic-Based Fertilizers in the Philippines: A Rapid Appraisal
Authors: Briones Roehlano , Pastolero Helena Luz , Galang Ivory Myka
Published: December 2024

Modern conventional agriculture has relied heavily on inorganic fertilizers to achieve higher crop yields. However, concerns have arisen regarding its ecological and economic sustainability due to its impact on soil health, pollutants off-site, and recent surges in fertilizer prices. This paper reports on a rapid appraisal of the current state and potential expansion of organic fertilizer utilization and availability in the Philippines. The study finds that combining inorganic and organic-based fertilizers allows for a balanced realization of the advantages of each type. Government policies and programs promote both organic agriculture and balanced fertilization, although the budget is heavily skewed toward incentivizing farmer purchases of inorganic fertilizers.

The policy implications of the study are: 1) Strengthen the National Organic Agriculture Program by (1) expanding the implementation of Participatory Guarantee Systems and b) aggressively rolling out organic labeling for packaged organic produce; (2) Review the regulatory system and competition oversight for organic fertilizers and biofertilizers; (3) Adopt a phased repurposing of fertilizer subsidies by gradually shifting the allocation from inorganic fertilizers to organic fertilizers, biofertilizers, and area-based research and development to promote adaptive balanced fertilization strategy (BFS), including soil mapping of all agricultural land in the country; (4) Beyond research and development, the Department of Agriculture must invest heavily in extension services to promote the widespread adoption of adaptive BFS; (5) Implement a value chain program for the development of the biofertilizer and organic fertilizer industry; (6) Anchor the value chain program on support for commercial networks of private corporations and capacitated farmer organizations, coordinated with the distribution of organic fertilizer and biofertilizer vouchers; and (7) Integrate the value chain development of organic fertilizers and biofertilizers with the development of the livestock, poultry, and agro-processing industries.
Politická instrumentalizace československého disentu ve Francii. K dopisům Jana Vladislava Václavu Havlovi
Authors:   Faculté de Lettres, Traduction et Communication de l’Université Libre de Bruxelles, Muls Astrid
Published: December 2024

Beginning in 1981, Jan Vladislav lived in exile in France, where he continued his publishing activity and participated in the promotion of works by other Czechoslovaks, particularly Václav Havel. He also participated in the week of Czechoslovak culture in France in 1984, which was organized to follow the belated ceremony for Havel’s being awarded an honorary doctorate by the University of Toulouse–Le Mirail two years earlier. Using his personal correspondence, particularly with Havel, deposited in the Václav Havel Library archive and in the Vladislav Papers at the Literary Archive of the Museum of Czech Literature, the article assesses Vladislav’s reflections on the reception and promotion of Czechoslovak dissident culture in France and it also takes into consideration the difficulty of promoting literature by dissidents, a cultural product that in France was markedly politicized and promoted by left-wing individuals.
Development of spoiled gradient echo sequences for MRI relaxometry
Authors:   , Zampini Marco Andrea
Published: December 2024

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a noninvasive, non-ionizing technique that allows both anatomical and functional imaging with tunable contrast among soft tissues. Although MRI is a significant source of images with differences in signal intensity defined by differences in specific physical parameters; for the vast majority of applications, images are being interpreted qualitatively in the clinical practice. Quantitative MRI (qMRI) is an umbrella term that encompasses the quantification of the parameters specifying signal intensity. Among others, the relaxation parameters T1 and T2 remain a main research topic in qMRI as the relaxation times have been used as biomarkers for tissue characterization and differentiation, and can be of great radiological support. Several methods for fast relaxometry have been proposed, however there is yet no general consensus on fast relaxometry mapping techniques that allow good image quality within clinically acceptable time and with good reproducibility and repeatability, also due to the dependency of these parameters on confounding factors, including the RF excitation field B1. This PhD thesis starts with a short history of the concept of Nuclear Magnetic Resonance and the development of the Magnetic Resonance Imaging technique, after which the main qMRI techniques dedicated to relaxometry mapping are reported. The contributions of this thesis focus on improvements for T1 mapping. As for most T1 mapping methodologies, an accurate estimation of the flip angle is necessary, we start with the development of a preparation module for a faster steady state approach and sampling of Actual Flip angle Imaging (AFI), a B1 mapping technique. Next, we extended B1-mapping with T1-mapping using Variable flip angle with AFI (VAFI) approach in which we introduce a slice profile correction as well as a 2D multislice stacking approach for AFI, which respectively provide a more accurate and faster way to acquire parametric maps. Then, a newly developed sequence, Relaxation Alternate Mapping of Spoiled Echo Signals (RAMSES) for multiparametric mapping including T1, B1, and T2* is introduced. This was achieved by adding a bipolar multi-gradient-echo readout to AFI, with no additional scanning time required. Lastly, another newly developed sequence, Echo Planar Imaging Fast Actual Nutation Imaging (EPIFANI) for ultrafast B1-corrected T1 mapping is introduced. This sequence is an echo planar imaging (EPI) version of AFI, which can be used to provide high time efficiency to a multiparametric acquisition, and represents one of the very few attempts to acquire multiparametric maps with EPI.
Association between HIV integrase strand transfer inhibitor use and type 2 diabetes mellitus
Authors:   , Mulindwa Frank
Published: December 2024

Following reports of widespread primary resistance to non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs), the World Health Organization (WHO) recommended dolutegravir (DTG), an integrase strand transfer inhibitor (INSTI) as an anchor drug for first line and later second line treatment of HIV. In the years that followed the WHO recommendations, DTG anchored anti-retroviral therapy (ART) was widely implemented in most HIV treatment programs in sub-Saharan Africa as first line therapy. Uganda implemented DTG anchored anti-retroviral therapy use in 2018. Selected HIV treatment centers such as the Makerere University Infectious Diseases Institute acted as pilot sites for its roll out. ART naïve persons with HIV (PLHIV) were initiated on DTG with concurrent switching of ART-experienced PLHIV. In the first 12 months of use, the Makerere University Infectious Diseases Institute reported sixteen cases of diabetic ketoacidosis happening weeks to a few months after switching to DTG, the majority of whom were ART experienced prior to the switch to DTG. Similar reports in patients initiating integrase inhibitors were published from other world regions. At population level, large population cohort studies yielded conflicting results about the risk of diabetes among INSTI users. We investigated the association of integrase inhibitor use with incident type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) at population level in a meta-analysis. We further explored this association in a longitudinal cohort of Ugandan PLHIV in studies II, III and IV. In study I: In a meta-analysis of approximately 75,000 PLHIV exposed to different ART regimens, we demonstrated that INSTI use was associated with a lower risk of incident diabetes mellitus and hyperglycaemia compared to non -nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor and protease inhibitor anchored ART. In study II: We demonstrated that the incidence of T2DM in the first 48 weeks of DTG use in a cohort of Ugandan PLHIV was low, comparable to findings in safety data of landmark DTG trials. In study III: We demonstrated that there was no significant worsening in insulin resistance and pancreatic beta cell function in the first 48 weeks of DTG use in the same cohort. Finally, in study IV: We demonstrated that patients with pre-diabetes mellitus at baseline when exposed to dolutegravir had consistent improvement in blood glucose over 48 weeks just like their counterparts with normal blood glucose. 9 We concluded that integrase inhibitor use is not associated with a heightened risk for incident T2DM at population level in different sub-populations including ART naïve and exposed PLHIV.

Work-Related Quality of Life among Public Secondary School Teachers in the City of Manila, Philippines
Authors: Panuelos Nil Edward , Pili Maria Socorro
Published: December 2024

This study investigates the Work-Related Quality of Life (WRQoL) among public secondary school teachers in the City of Manila, Philippines, focusing on domains such as General Well-being, Home-Work Interface, Job-Career Satisfaction, Control at Work, Working Conditions, and Stress at Work. The research aims to assess the levels of WRQoL and identify differences based on demographic profiles. A descriptive cross-sectional study was employed, involving 190 secondary public school teachers. Data were collected using a standardized WRQoL questionnaire developed by the Quality of Working Life Research Center at the University of Portsmouth. The study utilized convenience and snowball sampling methods, ensuring voluntary participation and adherence to ethical standards. Results indicate that most respondents exhibit a high quality of life, with significant differences observed in stress at work and area of specialization and age-related differences in home-work interface and working conditions. Specifically, 60% of respondents reported higher overall WRQoL, 27.5% had average, and 12.6% had low WRQoL. The study found no significant gender differences across WRQoL subscales. However, age significantly influenced the homework interface and working conditions, with younger teachers experiencing more favorable conditions. In conclusion, the study highlights the importance of addressing occupational stress and enhancing working conditions to improve teachers' quality of life. The findings suggest that targeted interventions considering age and specialization could further enhance teachers' work-related quality of life, ultimately benefiting educational outcomes.
SEMANTIC ROLE LABELING (SRL) FOR THE DISAMBIGUATION OF NATURAL LANGUAGE PROCESSING (NLP) SYSTEMS IN LOW-RESOURCED LANGUAGES AS KYRGYZ LANGUAGE

Cognitive analyses of the language by humans cover all components of the language, currently this requires from the machine as well. And widely used languages such as English NLP machines almost reach the level of performing this analysis coherently as humans do. Which started in accordance with Chomsky's Universal grammar theory to analyze language via algorithms which were implemented according to the language syntactical structure. However, experience has shown that there is a linguistic features which algorithm based just on language structure can’t analyze accurately as humans does. One of the reasons for this is that every word can have various grammatical and semantic features according to its particular context. Specifically in the case of languages with flexible word order. So NLP machines in such morphologically rich agglutinative languages such as Kyrgyz, need to cover both nature (grammatical, semantical) of the word to enhance the accuracy level of the tool. Thus this work will analyze the word’s semantic meaning beside grammatical features such as word correlation (who did what to whom, when and where). Thus this paper will investigate the challenges of implementing Semantic Role Labeling (SRL) in the context of the Kyrgyz language, a low-resourced language, by examining its unique linguistic properties and the limitations of existing NLP tools. With identification and analysis of the specific challenges faced by the SRL model in handling ambiguous or complex sentences in the Kyrgyz language, providing insights into areas for future improvements.

El republicanismo italiano, el Estado y la nación, 1861-1946
Authors: Ridolfi Maurizio , Delgado Pérez Tomás Francisco
Published: December 2024

En la historia italiana la tradición republicana, a partir al menos de las Comunas medievales, había ido consolidando la idea de independencia y autogobierno, mediante la vinculación de los derechos con la potestad de las leyes. La tradición republicana, derrotada y minoritaria en la Italia monárquica de los Saboya, se fundamentaba sobre todo en el mito de la República romana de 1849. Emergían los factores peculiares de la «tradición italiana»: la centralidad de los valores laicos, pero también las matrices morales de la acción política, una religión civil del deber y la distribución del poder en términos autonomistas y federalistas. Eran los principios de un «proyecto republicano» que se mantuvo vivo desde el segundo Ochocientos hasta los trabajos de la Asamblea Constituyente de los años 1946-1947, cuando la tradición republicana se concretó en la República de todos los italianos.
Monarquía, nación y Estado en Italia
Authors: Tesoro Marina , Pérez Delgado Tomás Francisco
Published: December 2024

La crisis italiana de finales del pasado siglo llevó a los historiadores a preguntarse sobre las razones de la débil identidad nacional, haciéndoles toparse así con la monarquía, desatendida hasta entonces en la investigación histórica. El presente trabajo analiza las recientes aportaciones al tema desde varias aproximaciones disciplinarias y metodológicas (constitucional, política, cultural) y propone algunas claves de lectura: 1) la amenaza que para el liberalismo italiano representó la falta de neutralidad con la que los reyes administraron su poder; 2) la práctica parlamentaria del «transformismo», que fundamentó la legitimidad para ejercer el gobierno en la fidelidad al Estatuto y al al rey; 3) el recíproco interés del rey y del duce en la «diarquía» planteada durante el fascismo; 4) el fracaso en la fundación de una religión civil en torno al rey y a la dinastía, que impidió colmar el déficit de legitimidad originaria del Reino de Italia; 5) el desafío que a la cultura monárquicoliberal plantearon otras culturas políticas antagónicas (católica, republicana, socialista).
La monarquía no dejó tras de sí añoranza en los italianos, que no comparten plenamente, sin embargo, los valores de la ciudadanía republicana y que manifiestan débiles sentimientos de común pertenencia.
Patria, nación y Estado en la Monarquía constitucional portuguesa
Authors: Catroga Fernando , Peralta García Beatriz
Published: December 2024

Se parte de la hipótesis: la revolución liberal portuguesa de 1820, que instauró una Monarquía representativa, intentó anclar, como la Constitución de Cádiz de 1812, una nación cívica en el ideal res publicano de «patriotismo constitucional». Sin embargo, con el dominio conquistado por la corriente más conservadora del liberalismo, identificada con un constitucionalismo otorgado por el Rey, no sólo se instaló una ecléctica coexistencia entre el principio monárquico y el principio nacional, sino que predominará un modelo de Estado centralista de inspiración francesa. Contra él, surgirán a la derecha alternativas de pendor tradicionalista e integralista y, a la izquierda, propuestas de orientación republicana. Y, si ambos movimientos reivindicaban una organización político-administrativa de tipo municipalista y descentralizada, los segundos querían ponerla al servicio de la democratización de la sociedad, por lo tanto, de la República. Y ése sería el mejor medio de combate contra el caciquismo que el sistema representativo de la Monarquía constitucional y la reproducción de sus élites político-partidarias generarían.
Recepción y difusión del modelo laico en la España contemporánea, 1808-1931
Authors: Martín Luis P.
Published: December 2024

Este artículo propone una interpretación del laicismo español, desde principios del siglo xix y hasta la ii República, que toma en consideración la diversidad de aspectos que lo configuran y acompañan. Partiendo de la existencia del modelo laico francés, nos interesamos en estudiar cómo se pudo poner en aplicación otro modelo laico en España. Poniendo el énfasis en cuestiones como el proceso secularizador, la función del Estado y la difusión del laicismo, reflexionamos sobre el alcance de esta propuesta, que fue a la vez social, cultural y política, ya que se entroncaba en una cultura política republicana muy alejada de la dominante y, por lo tanto, de difícil asentamiento.
El Vaticano y los movimientos monárquicos durante la II República
Authors: Trullén Floría Ramiro
Published: December 2024

Los estudios sobre el catolicismo en la II República española han abordado tradicionalmente esta espinosa cuestión desde la dialéctica clericalismo-anticlericalismo. Sin embargo, se hace necesario profundizar en la dinámica interna del mundo católico y de la derecha española en esta etapa histórica para ampliar nuestro conocimiento en este campo. Ello nos lleva a analizar la resistencia por parte de grupos integrados en la cultura política nacional-católica a plegarse al posibilismo vaticano y la construcción de un discurso alternativo en clave religiosa que necesitaba apoyarse en argumentos y personalidades eclesiásticas para articular un mensaje coherente.
Press supervision of local election (Pilkada) transparency in South Sulawesi
Authors: Bate Andi Muhammad Farid Fausan , Bate Andi Nurul Istiqamah
Published: December 2024

This study analyzes the role of press supervision in encouraging transparency and accountability in the implementation of the local elections in South Sulawesi. With a qualitative approach based on literature studies, this study explores how the press contributes to uncovering potential violations, supporting information disclosure, and improving people's political literacy. South Sulawesi, with its complex political dynamics, faces significant challenges in press scrutiny, including political pressure, low media literacy, and the rise of hoaxes. The results show that the press plays an important role as an external supervisor that bridges the government and society, although its effectiveness is often constrained by various factors. Strategic recommendations include strengthening media regulation, increasing public literacy, and cross-sector collaboration to ensure better integrity of the local elections. This research emphasizes the importance of independent media in maintaining the quality of democracy at the local level. This highlights the need for continuous efforts to empower the press as a pillar of democracy, ensuring it remains a reliable watchdog against electoral malpractices and a promoter of informed civic engagement.

Published: December 2024

Treatment-resistant depression (TRD) affects about one-third of patients with major depressive disorder (MDD) and is characterized by the failure to respond to at least two antidepressants. Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) has been studied as an effective alternative for TRD, with potential benefits in reducing depressive symptoms. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of rTMS as an adjunctive treatment for TRD through a literature review that analyzed articles published in the last five years, using the PubMed and LILACS databases. rTMS showed effectiveness in reducing depressive symptoms and suicidal ideation in TRD patients, despite variations in stimulation protocols, such as different frequencies and durations. Although rTMS demonstrated neuroplastic effects, there was no clear evidence that these structural changes resulted in significant short-term clinical improvements. It is concluded that rTMS is a promising approach for TRD treatment, but further studies are needed to optimize protocols and understand its long-term effects.
Fortalecimiento del engagement en estudiantes de media, desde la comprensión del afrontamiento y el estrés.
Authors: Domínguez Plata Viviana , Velázquez Pompeyo René Ileana
Published: December 2024

La situación de la educación en Colombia en los últimos años, tras la pandemia de COVID-19 y el creciente uso de dispositivos electrónicos, ha planteado a las comunidades educativas el desafío de enfrentar el desinterés de los estudiantes, el bajo rendimiento académico, la deserción escolar y las dificultades de orden afectivo, que cada vez son más frecuentes en la población juvenil.
El engagement o involucramiento académico es un estado de felicidad y bienestar en la ocupación, se caracteriza por tres dimensiones; vigor, dedicación y absorción (Schaufeli & Bakker, 2003).  El estrés se refiere una respuesta bioquímica  fisiológica y psicológica ante situaciones que las personas no alcanzan a asumir de forma efectiva (Cortés Cortés, 2021), las estrategias de afrontamiento EA son intentos conductuales, cognitivos y emocionales para manejar demandas exigentes (Morán-Astorga et al., 2019).
Se utilizó un modelo mixto tipo anidado con predominancia de la metodología cuantitativa, haciendo uso de las escalas EEC-M  y el UWES-S, con análisis estadísticos descriptivos y correlacionales; y a nivel cualitativo a través de una metodología participativa de grupo focal. Los resultados mostraron bajos niveles de Engagement total, uso de estrategias de evitación cognitiva y emocional, de igual forma se evidencio reporte de micro estresores, lo cual podría relacionarse con los bajos niveles de Engagement. Se propone una estrategia de fortalecimiento integral en la comunidad educativa que incluye trabajo en aula (manejo micro estresores), trabajo con docentes (demandas académicas y manejo de estrés), fortalecimiento de EA con padres y estudiantes.

El personal docente universitario realiza múltiples actividades que involucran docencia, la investigación, vinculación con la comunidad, a menudo enfrenta desafíos que pueden afectar su calidad de vida laboral (CVL). La falta de un ambiente laboral que promueva su bienestar y desarrollo personal puede impactar negativamente en su desempeño, motivación, calidad educativa, entre otros aspectos. La investigación sobre la CVL de los docentes universitarios es esencial para mejorar su entorno laboral y bienestar, influyendo en su productividad, así como satisfacción personal. El objetivo de la investigación es describir la calidad de vida laboral de los docentes universitarios considerando las siete dimensiones del instrumento CVT GOHISALO. La investigación es de tipo cuantitativa, con un diseño no experimental, descriptivo y de corte transeccional, empleando el cuestionario CVT-GOHISALO del Instituto de Salud Ocupacional de México. Los resultados indican que las dimensiones "integración al puesto de trabajo," "bienestar logrado a través del trabajo," "satisfacción por el trabajo," "desarrollo personal" tienen valoraciones muy satisfactorias para los docentes universitarios.  Sin embargo, el "soporte institucional" y la "seguridad en el trabajo" no se consideran distintivas, la "administración del tiempo libre" muestra menor satisfacción. Los docentes valoran sus competencias y habilidades en la academia, lo cual refuerza la importancia de implementar estos instrumentos en otras áreas universitarias para conocer a fondo su percepción. Esto permitirá identificar fortalezas y establecer estrategias para mejorar su calidad de vida laboral, manteniendo y potenciando sus capacidades, así mismo puede ser un punto de referencia para futuras investigaciones relacionadas a la Calidad de vida laboral docente.
Materialistic, Hedonistic, and Consumptive Lifestyle Trends: An Analysis The Learning Materials Of Al-Qur’an Hadith At The Madrasah Tsanawiyah Level

Published: December 2024

Materialistic, hedonistic, and consumptive lifestyles in this case the excessive lifestyle and miserly attitude are on two different sides. Because these two traits are clearly contrary to the concept of simplicity that Islam wants. Therefore, this paper will discuss the prohibition of materialistic, hedonistic and consumptive lifestyles in the Qur'an and Hadith. The research method used is library research, which is a method of collecting data by understanding and studying theories from various literatures related to the research. After conducting in- depth research, the author can find that the nature of materialism (life values that emphasize or attach importance to the ownership of material goods or wealth), Hedonism (Pleasure of life), Consumptive (behaviour or lifestyle that likes to spend money without considering carefully). Islam firmly rejects the attitudes of these three lifestyles in the form of prohibiting extravagance on the one hand and miserliness on the other. Because these three traits are clearly contrary to the concept of simplicity that Islam wants. As Allah says in QS. Al-Hadid: 20, QS. At-Takatsur: 1, and QS. Al-Isra: 17. The study of the Al-Quran and Hadith, a Muslim should use his wealth for useful things and not be used for vain things.
The Western Balkans at a crossroads: an old war front in new geopolitical compositions
Authors: Kuçi Gurakuç
Published: December 2024

The Western Balkans is transforming into one of the primary fronts of confrontation between global powers, where Russia's and Serbia's hybrid strategies directly challenge the stability and sovereignty of countries in the region. This paper examines the complex dimensions of this hybrid warfare, focusing on recent attacks in Banjska and Zvecan, which signify a deliberate escalation aimed at destabilizing Kosovo. Through the use of demographic manipulations, sabotage of critical infrastructure, and the provocation of ethnic tensions, Russia and Serbia are leveraging the Balkans as a battleground to advance their strategic projects, such as “Srpski Svet” and “Ruski Mir”.
By comparing this approach to cases in Georgia and Ukraine, the paper highlights the use of hybrid tools, from propagandistic narratives to direct interventions, as a model for undermining democratic structures and increasing influence in the region.

Por ello, esta investigación busca motivar la enseñanza de esta lengua para generar inclusión educativa desde la primera infancia para mejorar el entorno de formación en el subnivel Inicial 2. La metodología seleccionada se centró en el estudio de caso, con un paradigma sociocrítico y un enfoque cualitativo. Para la recopilación de datos se utilizaron las técnicas de observación participante y entrevista; también se aplicaron tres instrumentos: una guía de preguntas, diarios de campo y guía de observación. Los resultados preliminares indicaron que la docente y los infantes desconocen la LSEC para atender la diversidad en el aula, lo que evidencia la falta de capacitación de los docentes en estrategias de inclusión.
Geopolitical Risk and Higher Education in Indonesia: A Systematic Literature Review
Authors: ARIE Fitty Valdi , KISSIYA Efilina
Published: December 2024

As the 2024 elections in Indonesia draw attention, the issue of democracy on universities is often overlooked. Despite the political nature of power dynamics within universities, debates about campus democracy can create tension and harm the academic environment; such conflicts can negatively affect community, cooperation, and mutual respect among students and faculty. This study aims to help universities make better governance decisions, focusing on transparency, accountability, and other key factors. This article emphasizes the geopolitical risk effect in higher education circumstances, which was then developed as a basis for finding solutions for the sustainability of higher education in Indonesia. This research uses the PRISMA systematic literature review method to assist researchers in reporting transparently and systematically why the review was carried out, what the author did, and what was found which was then analyzed using the SLR method which was carried out systematically by following the correct research stages or protocols, includes review studies, structured evaluations, classification and relevant categorization of previously generated evidence bases. As a result Universities behoove sterile from elements of power or, in other words, have political immunity; the functions and roles of campuses need to be revitalized and decontextualized in campus democracy from any political anomaly that causes turmoil. In addition, this research can help stakeholders at the political level to provide consideration in granting full autonomy to campuses both in academic and non-academic aspects.

Simulated negotiations in native language/Romanian and foreign language/English, by written messages with progressive degrees of aggressivity, revealed a general tendency of behavior. The effect named “Redshift/Blueshift effect of language use” occurs when the language of negotiation influence the aggressivity perceived in the negotiation: the perceptions and reactions in the foreign language are less intense and has as consequences a higher perception of satisfaction and less aggressive reactions (so “shifted to blue” in relation to native language) than the perceived in the native language of the negotiator (that is “shifted to red” in relation to foreign language). A possible explanation was proposed, connected with the Foreign-Language Effect, based on emotional filtering of the foreign language, that attenuate the emotional perceptions of the native speaker who process messages in a foreign language. The “redshift/blueshift effect” was highlighted by analysis of the negotiation simulations by an original method that complete the quantitative analysis of deciles and tendency indicators with a visual qualitative analysis of colored diagrams of deciles based on the classic Excel tool, named “Redshift/Blueshift analysis of distribution deciles”, as a paraphrase on the effect from astrophysics and as a connection with the natural tendency to associate the red color to aggressiveness and blue color to agreeableness.

В настоящем исследовании успешно клонирована, экспрессирована в клетках Escherichia coli и очищена α-амилаза из казахстанского штамма Bacillus paralicheniformis, обладающего высокой амилолитической активностью. Ген α-амилазы был амплифицирован методом полимеразной цепной реакции с использованием специфических праймеров, подобранных на основе данных полногеномного секвенирования штамма B. paralicheniformis T7 (GenBank accession # CP124861). Ген был клонирован в векторе pET-28c(+) и с помощью плазмидной экспрессии была получена рекомбинантная α-амилаза. С использованием металлоаффинной хроматографии был очищен рекомбинантый белок, выход которого составил 1,26 мг/л. Рекомбинантная α-амилаза обладает максимальной активностью при 85°С и устойчива к часовой инкубации при 70°С и 80°С. Оптимальное значение рН для рекомбинантного фермента составляет 6,0. Удельная активность рекомбинантной α-амилазы в оптимальных условиях составляет 2512.6 ± 54.7 Ед/мг. Ионы Ca2+, Cu2+ Co2+ в 1,5-2 раза увеличивают, а ионы Fe3+ на 90% уменьшают активность рекомбинантной α-амилазы. Основными продуктами гидролиза картофельного крахмала при использовании рекомбинантной α-амилазы выступают: глюкоза, мальтоза, мальтотреоза, мальтотетраоза и мальтопентаоза. В целом, результаты свидетельствуют о высоком потенциале использования α-амилазы из B. paralicheniformis в переработке крахмала и крахмалсодержащего сырья.

В настоящем исследовании представлены данные по определению численности и изучению популяции дрофы-красотки на территории Южно-Казахстанской государственной заповедной зоны республиканского значения Республики Казахстан. Учет численности дрофы-красотки на изучаемой территории проводился в весенний период с 07 по 10 апреля 2024 г., в осенний период в период с 12 по 14 сентября 2024 г. Результаты весенних и осенних учетов дрофы-красотки показали незначительный прирост ее численности и в 2024 году составили 6097 особей. Учетные и мониторинговые маршруты по различным биотопам в местах обитания дрофы-красотки показали, что в весенний период наибольшее количество особей было детектировано в равнинных биотипах с преобладанием биюргуна (Anabasis salsa), полыни (Artemisia vulgaris) и редкого саксаула (Haloxylon persicum), в осенний период птицы предпочитали равнинные биотипы с биюргуном и редким саксаулом. Основным факторам, сдерживающим рост популяции дрофы красотки на изучаемой заповедной территории, является сельское хозяйство и сопутствующие антропогенные факторы, такие как автомототранспорт, большая численность скота, пастушьи собаки и увеличивающееся количество зимовок, геолого-разведывательные работы. Указанные антропогенные факторы напрямую влияют на численность популяции и плотность дрофы-красотки, их места обитания и гнездования.

Eutanázia és egyenlő méltóság
Authors: Tóth Gábor Attila
Published: December 2024

„Beadványával és nyilvános megszólalásaival Dunavölgyi Erzsébet egyszerre jelenítette meg az alapjogi igényt az autonóm személy döntési szabadságára és a másokkal egyenlő méltóságra. Fellépése arra figyelmeztet, hogy a hátrányosabb szociális helyzetűek, a gyengébb érdekérvényesítő képességűek szempontjai is számítanak. Nekik is joguk van törekedni a saját meggyőződésük szerinti jó életre és a jó halálra, illetve az elviselhető végstádiumra. Az egyenlő méltóságukat sérti, ha eszközként kezelik őket, és az is, ha az állam megvonja tőlük az emberhez méltó élethez és a méltóságteli halálhoz szükséges erőforrásokat.”(Tóth Gábor Attila)
Islamic Perspective on Urban Ecology Environmental Preservation in The Context of Urbanization
Authors: Fitryansyah Muhammad Andryan
Published: December 2024

The problem of rapid urbanization has led to environmental degradation in big cities, such as air pollution, reduction of green spaces, and poor waste management. This research aims to examine the role of Islamic perspective in urban environmental conservation. Through the concepts of khalifah (leadership), mizan (balance), and amana (trust), Islamic teachings provide a relevant ethical framework for protecting the environment. This research method is a literature review by analyzing primary sources such as the Qur'an, hadith, and secondary literature related to Islamic ecology and urban environmental challenges. The results show that Islamic teachings offer practical guidance in human interaction with nature. The concept of khalifah places humans as guardians of the earth with the responsibility to preserve the environment. Mizan emphasizes the importance of maintaining the balance of nature, avoiding overexploitation, and ensuring the sustainability of the ecosystem. Meanwhile, amana underlines the moral obligation to manage natural resources responsibly. This research reveals that with the integration of Islamic values, Muslim communities can be more actively involved in urban ecological preservation. The impact of this research is to increase the awareness and participation of Muslim communities in environmental conservation efforts, while enriching the global discourse on sustainability through a holistic approach. In conclusion, Islamic teachings can be a strong foundation in designing more sustainable urban policies, by encouraging a balance between urban development and environmental conservation.
CSR In Business School: Faculty’s Perception of University/College Social Responsibility (USR) Initiatives in Nepal

Universities and colleges must recognise that, in pursuit of their primary teaching and research
goals, they must also consider their obligations to society and the environment. However, a detailed
investigation of how faculties perceive their college/university social responsibility is still lacking.
This research investigates the perceptions of faculty members in business schools regarding
corporate social responsibility (CSR) endeavours. Gender, age, income, marital status, years of
experience and education are the demographic variables considered in the study. The study was
conducted among 298 faculty members from all over Nepal. The findings reveal that faculties
generally have favourable attitudes towards their university social responsibility initiatives.
At the same time, female faculty generally have more positive attitudes towards university
social responsibility initiatives in Nepal than their male counterparts. Furthermore, the results
demonstrate no significant difference in CSR perception among faculty members based on their
length of service, income, age, education and marital status. The insights gained in this chapter
shed light on how their staff perceive CSR within universities and colleges, offering a valuable
starting point for defining or re-evaluating strategies related to CSR in business school settings.
