The aim: To determine and generalize the indicators of stabilometry in healthy individuals for their further use as a control group in studies of pathologies of the musculoskeletal system.
Materials and methods: The study was conducted on a stable platform with biofeedback TYMO (Tyromotion). 30 male and female patients aged 18-25 years participated in the study. The following indicators were studied : distance traveled, medial-lateral deviation, anterior-posterior deviation, area of the statokinesiogram (COF), average speed, feedback system, Romberg index. Stabilometry was performed in a bipodal position, standing, in four functional positions: on a hard surface with eyes open and closed, on a soft surface with eyes open and closed.
Results: The reference values of the stabilometric parameters: the traveled distance, medio-lateral deviation, anterior-posterior deviation, the area of the statokinesiogram, the average speed, the feedback system, the Romberg index in healthy individuals aged 18-25 years were determined . When evaluating the feedback system, it was established that the visual component was 34% (32.0; 36.0), the vestibular 34% (32.0; 35.0), the somatosensory 33% (30.0; 36.0). The reflex-driven index was 0.55 (0.46, 0.62), the central nervous system (CNS)-driven index was 1.55 (1.25, 1.89) . The Romberg index M1/ M2 was 0.94 (0.78, 1.07), M2/M3 was 0.98 (0.86, 1.10).
Conclusions: The obtained indicators of movement in the sagittal plane, the area of the statokinesiogram, the average speed of movement, the feedback system (visual, vestibular, proprioceptive (somatosensory) components), the Romberg index (RI) can be considered reference values for healthy individuals aged 18-25 years .

Published: October 2023

The aim: Analyzing literature sources, to assess possibilities of using the method of intradermal immunization with native autoleukocytes to treat different diseases, to investigate the areas of usage, efficacy and expediency of the technique in clinical practice.
Materials and methods: Analysis of literature sources associated with intradermal immunization with native autoleukocytes.
Conclusions: The possibilities of using the method of intradermal immunization with native autoleukocytes in the treatment of various diseases are consid¬ered in the literature review. Intradermal immunization with autoleukocytes is one of the methods of personalized medicine. The application of the method results in normalization of the immune system condition as well as suppression of autoimmune and inflammatory processes. It also reduces the synthesis of pro-inflammatory cytokines and strengthens cellular antiviral immunity in a number of viral infections. It is proved, in particular, that the method reduces the synthesis of cryoglobulins, the formation of antithyroid antibodies, normalizes the level of tumor necrosis factor alpha, as well as reduces extrahepatic manifestations of chronic hepatitis and increases the effectiveness of antiviral therapy in patients with viral hepatitis B. Considering that immunization with native autoleukocytes has no contraindications, it can be used in many diseases.

Published: October 2023

The aim: To analyze the psychological readiness of the first-year students to study at a medical university, difficulties in the educational process, and the formation of positive motivation to educational and professional activity.
Materials and methods: In the course of research, the following techniques have been used: bibliosemantic method for the analysis of scientific publications, methodology for study the main motives for choosing a profession, suggested by S. Yu. Daukilas, methodology for study the motives of academic activity, designed at the Department of Ukrainian Studies and Humanitarian Training of Poltava State Medical University (modified by A. Rean, V. Yakunin) to conduct a survey in the process of learning Ukrainian as a foreign language by the students of Medical Faculty at the Poltava State Medical University in 2021/2022 academic year.
Conclusions: Professional identity of medical students begins at the first course of study. First-year students’ faces heavy academic load of general scientific, medical and biological disciplines, foreign languages, etc. It is important from the first days to create a positive psychological motivation for studying, for acquiring knowledge and skills that will be required in future professional activities. Therefore, the adaptation of educational material to the new student reality, the search for relevant forms of education, considering the individual psychological characteristics and cognitive capabilities of the new generation, the use of modern specialized multimedia tools, the involvement of students in independent research activities, etc. is of decisive importance for the formation of students’ readiness for education in medical university. The study showed that the students were motivated to choose their medical profession with the method of self-reproducing for the first time and later the strength of this motive grew. The role of some motivational factors in the field of professional life, such as a personal pattern, personal life, and self-satisfaction were not so well formed. We also fixed a great motivation to implement professional knowledge abroad.
Prospects for further research encompass the study of personal characteristics affecting the professional activity of future doctors is expected, including their psychological adequacy to the requirements of the profession - character, temperament, intelligence, communicative and organizational abilities, etc.

Published: October 2023

Patient, who died during the hospital stay, had hemoblastosis and syphilis in the reported medical history. While the patient was examined doctors suspected the presence of malignancy with unknown primary localization with multiple metastatic injuries with clinical and laboratory TTP signs (hemorrhagic syndrome, thrombocytopenia, shystocytosis, and non-immune hemolytic anemia). Despite treatment, the general patient’s condition progressively worsens with increasing multiple organ decompensation signs. In the final stage of the disease course, after heart arrest and the appearance of clinical death signs CPR measures were performed according to complete guidance, but CRP had no positive effect. Biological death was constated.
Considering the criteria of the diagnostic clinical and laboratory dyad (thrombocytopenia and microangiopathic hemolytic anemia), the data of the patholog¬ical examination (multiple metastatic lesions, inflammatory process, tumor intoxication, thrombosis), the combination of manifestations of chronic myeloid leukemia, prostate cancer with multiple metastases, tertiary syphilis served as a condition for the initiation of TTP, which was of decisive importance in the development of the patient’s death.

Urogenital schistosomiasis in humans is an infection of public health importance caused by infection with Schistosoma heamatobium. The study investigated the risk factors and intensity of urogenital schistosomiasis among primary school pupils in Makurdi, Nigeria. Eight hundred (800) school pupils consisting of 200 per school, aged 5 – 20 years in Angwan Jukun, Angwan Reke, Agbo and Ijaha communities, respectively were enrolled for the study. Suitably designed questionnaire was used to document data on the demographics as well as relevant information of the participants. Urine samples were collected from consented participants between 10 am – 2 pm, into pre-labelled plastic sample bottles following aseptic techniques. The samples were subjected to standard parasitological techniques for determination and quantification of parasite in the zoology laboratory of Benue State University, Makurdi. Research data was subjected to chi square analysis to ascertain association of the research variables with schistosomiasis prevalence in the study area. The study filed an overall prevalence of 23.75% (190/800). Infection rates were significantly associated with age as age group 16-20 years had the highest prevalence (P<0.000). Males 25.42% (122/800) were slightly more infected than females 21.25% (68/800) (P>0.05). Water contact pattern of participants revealed a highly significant association with schistosomiasis prevalence (p<0.001)). Grazing activity 50% (1/2) displayed higher infection prevalence followed by > 1 activity 34.65% (79/228) while no infection was seen in snail hunters. The association between the presence and type of livestock sharing open water sources with the communities was statistically significant (P<0.05). Makurdi is endemic for urogenital schistosomiasis and related risk factors. The roles of other definitive hosts in ensuring continual disease transmission and possible zoonosis should be investigated

The effect of the source, initial or boundary conditions in the use of Adomian decomposition method (ADM) on nonlinear partial differential equation or nonlinear equation in general is enormous. Sometimes the equation in question result to continuous exact solution in series form, other times it result to discrete approximate analytical solutions. In this paper, we show that continuous exact solitons can be obtained on application of ADM to the Fisher's equation with the deployment Taylor theorem to the terms(s) in question. And, the resulting series is split into the integral equations during the solution process. Resulting to multivariate Taylor's series of the exact solitons with the help of Adomian polynomials of the nonlinear reaction term correctly calculated. More physical results are further depicted in 2D, 3D and contour plots.

Die Aufgaben zur Regula Inventionis im Rechenbuch des Johannes Widmann von Eger
Authors: Deschauer Stefan
Published: October 2023

Die Regula Inventionis („Regel des Findens“) hat bei den Autoren des 16. und 17. Jahrhunderts durchweg eine spezielle Bedeutung: Es geht um die Umkehrung von „Standardaufgaben“, die mit dem Dreisatz gelöst werden können, und zwar unter Austausch von gegebener und gesuchter Größe. Dabei wird häufig nach einer metrologischen Beziehung gesucht. Solche Aufgaben werden anspruchsvoller, wenn sie auf ein unterbestimmtes lineares Problem führen und weitere (zahlentheoretische) Überlegungen eine Rolle spielen, wie hier bei Widmann.
Kurse bei Strömung – Skizze einer geometrischen und einer analytischen Modellierung
Authors: Rehlich Hartmut
Published: October 2023

Ein Schiff halte bei konstanter Meeresströmung stets genau auf das Ziel zu. Das heißt, dass so gesteuert wird, dass der Bug des Schiffes mit Hilfe eines sichtbaren Ziels (z. B. eines Leuchtturms) oder mit Hilfe eines Peilstrahls, stets auf das Ziel ausgerichtet ist. Das Schiff fährt dann eine sogenannte Radiodrome, was Leitstrahlkurve heißt. Es geht um die Frage, welche Kurven im idealisierten Fall entstehen. Die Darstellung ist elementar und soll mathematisch unterhaltsam sein und enthält auch Hinweise darauf, wie man das Material im Schulunterricht einsetzen kann.

Hier geht es um eine mathematische Fragestellung, die sich elementar formulieren lässt, aber nur schwer, oder gar nicht, vollständig zu beantworten ist. n Steine sollen so auf die Kacheln einer Zerlegung der Ebene in Quadrate gelegt werden, dass in jeder Reihe und jeder Zeile gerade viele Steine liegen. Es ist ganz erstaunlich, welche Reichhaltigkeit an mathematischen Themen sich ergeben, wenn man dieses Problem untersucht.
Viel mehr als nur „Ansichten zuordnen“ – Aufgaben zur Perspektivübernahme im Realraum als Ansatz für bewusste Erfahrung mit konfligierenden Bezugssystemen
Authors: Ruwisch Silke , Heil Cathleen
Published: October 2023

Perspektivübernahme ist eine lebenspraktische Facette räumlicher Fähigkeiten, bei der es gilt, wechselseitige Relationen von Bezugssystemen zu verstehen. In Aufgaben, die lediglich erfordern, Ansichten zuzuordnen, wird ein Bewusstmachen dieser den Raum konstituierenden, zeitlich variablen Konstrukte kaum gefördert; wohl aber bei der Arbeit mit Karten im Realraum. Durch deren Raum-in-Raum-Eigenschaft können vielfältigere Aufgaben zur Perspektivübernahme konzipiert werden. Diese verbinden sensuell-handelnde Erfahrungen mit dem Potential, von ihnen zu abstrahieren und bewusst die verschiedenen Relationen zu fokussieren. Erste Beispiele zeigen dies auf und ein Überblick über mögliche Implikationen deutet an, dass dieses perspektivenreiche Thema noch länger Teil der aktuellen Diskurse in Praxis und Forschung sein sollte.
Kegelschnitte falten
Authors: Schmitz Michael
Published: October 2023

Schneidet man einen (Doppel-)Kegel mit einer Ebene, so entstehen Schnittkurven, die man als Kegelschnitte bezeichnet. Über Betrachtungen zu Funktionen finden Parabeln und Hyperbeln noch Eingang in den Mathematikunterricht. Geometrische Eigenschaften oder analytische Untersuchungen der Kegelschnitte spielen hingegen kaum eine Rolle. Wir befassen uns hier auch nur mit den ebenen Kurven, die wir als Hüllkurven ihrer Tangenten erzeugen. Dabei entstehen die Tangenten durch Falten. Auch eine geometrische Beschreibung dieser Kurven werden wir dabei entdecken.
Schnittkörper des Würfels in der Elementarbildung
Authors: Schumann Heinz
Published: October 2023

Friedrich Fröbel (1782-1852), bekannt vor allem durch sein Konzept des Kindergartens und die erste Gründung desselben, hat wohl als erster Pädagoge Schnittkörper des Würfels für pädagogische Zwecke genutzt. Seine metaphysisch begründete und in der Gedankenwelt der Romantik und des Idealismus wurzelnde elementare Erziehungslehre und Didaktik ist in der deutschen Pädagogik des 20. Jahrhunderts gewürdigt worden. Um den Rahmen dieser Arbeit nicht zu sprengen, müssen wir auf die genannte Literatur und auch auf Friedrich Fröbels gesammelte pädagogische Schriften verweisen aus denen auch im Folgenden zitiert wird. Wir beschränken uns hier auf eine kommentierende Wiedergabe wesentlicher Stellen in Fröbels Lernspielprogramm für die 'Vorschule', die sich auf Körperschnitte beziehen.

A QUESTÃO DA FILOSOFIA E DO ENSINO DE FILOSOFIA: APROXIMAÇÕES POSSÍVEIS ENTRE GILLES DELEUZE, FÉLIX GUATTARI E ALEJANDRO CERLETTI.
Authors: Santos Paulo Cézar Epaminondas dos , Oliveira Arthur Diego de Sousa , Rodrigues Cícero Maxciel Elias
Published: October 2023

Este artigo objetiva discutir a questão do ensino de filosofia à luz das reflexões de Gilles Deleuze e Félix Guattari sobre a filosofia a partir da obra O que é filosofia (1992)? Bem como com base no texto O ensino de filosofia como questão filosófica (2009) do filósofo argentino Alejandro Cerletti. Especificamente, intencionamos traçar relações possíveis entre ambos os textos filosóficos com vistas à questão do ensino de filosofia. A questão do ensino de filosofia, desde logo, pede o esclarecimento de uma questão primeira, o que é filosofia? Nesse sentido, uma possível abordagem à pergunta pode ser originada em se baseando nas reflexões de Gilles Deleuze e Félix Guattari na obra O que é filosofia? Nela, eles pontam o filosofar como uma relação, uma ação de busca perene, isto é, o filósofo e a filósofa o são a partir de um movimento de elaboração de perguntas perseguição delas em vista da obtenção de possíveis respostas ou partes delas. Partindo dessa caracterização inicial, há de se afirmar que a filosofia é exercida com base em questões que incomodam cada filósofo e filósofa, é do movimento do fazer filosófico que através dela funde-se o plano de imanência, assim, vários são os planos de imanência, justamente porque, são fundados a partir das questões erigidas por cada filósofo e filósofa. Os conceitos têm seus sentidos a partir e sobre os planos de imanência. Relativo à questão do ensino de filosofia, segundo Alejandro Cerletti, a atividade é indissociável, isto é, filosofia e ensinar filosofia estão imbricados. Não é possível, sem se cair em incoerência, lecionar filosofia sem exercê-la no ato do ensino. Ensina-se filosofando, a partir de planos de imanência os estudantes são experimentados e embebidos em planos possíveis a partir dos quais podem também eles e elas, municiados, interpelarem a si mesmos e seus entornos. As aproximações possíveis entre os filósofos sobreditos que este texto acentua são voltas às compreensões que têm sobre a filosofia, é uma ação efetivada em direção à sabedoria, é uma busca, é plural, planos de imanência são estabelecidos e a partir deles o novo pode ser criado e, por fim, que o ensino de filosofia parte desde de um filosofar.

Este trabalho objetivou analisar, quais as espécies vegetais empregadas com maior freqüência na produção de medicamentos fitoterápicos comercializados no município de Amargosa-BA, bem como traçar um perfil exploratório das plantas medicinais utilizadas na produção destes fitoterápicos. Listou-se 48 espécies utilizadas pela indústria farmacêutica em 34 fitoterápicos, este número é pequeno, tendo em vista a grande biodiversidade que o país detém. As espécies listadas pertencem a 33 famílias botânicas, Leguminoseae é de maior representatividade, compondo 18,18% do total, seguida da Fabaceae com 9,09%, outras famílias foram mencionadas em menores proporções. Dentre as espécies botânicas utilizadas, as mais representativas foram: Crataegus oxyacantha L. fazendo parte da composição de 05 produtos, Passiflora alata, de 04, Aesculus hippocastanum L. de 04, Passiflora incarnata L. de 03, Ginkgo biloba L. de 03, Hedera helix L. de 03, Salix alba L. de 03 e Erythrina mulungu, Martius de 03, outros binômios foram mencionados em menores proporções. Apesar da rica biodiversidade vegetal brasileira, a maioria das espécies utilizadas na produção dos fitoterápicos analisados é exótica (74,47%), isso indica a necessidade do desenvolvimento de estudos direcionados a conhecer o potencial medicamentoso dos compostos secundários das espécies nativas. As partes vegetais mais frequentemente utilizadas, em ordem decrescente foram: folhas, raízes, cascas, sementes e frutos. Os dados apresentados neste trabalho alertam a necessidade de estudos direcionados ao estabelecimento de um plano de conservação ex situ e in situ, principalmente das espécies nativas, bem como o desenvolvimento de tecnologias de cultivo daquelas que são extraídas indiscriminadamente de seus hábitats naturais.

A inclusão escolar perpassa a perspectiva do olhar isolado para a “educação especial”. O quanto mais cedo for trabalhado o reconhecimento das diferenças entre os alunos e valorizar as peculiaridades de cada um, é possível alcançar objetivos e potencialidades sobre cada educando. O presente artigo tem como objeto de estudo a inclusão na realidade escolar. Apresentando como foco o trabalho com a diversidade na educação infantil como marco inicial para a construção de uma escola inclusiva. Este trabalho discorre sobre contribuições de diversos autores como Mantoan, Gadotti, Carvalho e Perrenoud. Baseado em pesquisas bibliográficas e documentais, analisaremos o processo de aprendizagem na educação infantil, buscando identificar atividades que contribuam para a construção de um ambiente diverso pautado no respeito e aceitação das diferenças, assim como no fortalecimento da identidade.
USO ETNOBOTÂNICO DE PALMEIRAS NA AMÉRICA DO SUL: UMA REVISÃO SISTEMÁTICA
Authors: Gonçalves PR , Silva JO , Rodriges PMS , Lins-Neto EMF
Published: October 2023

Introdução: As palmeiras possuem ampla distribuição e são fontes de matéria prima para construção, alimentação, comércio e uso medicinal. A forma e intensidade de uso variam com o conhecimento e a necessidade de cada região, com o nível de escolaridade e acesso ao sistema de saúde. Métodos: A fim de identificar: Quais os biomas e/ou países mais estudados; os gêneros de palmeiras mais estudados; os principais tipos de uso e os órgãos mais utilizados; e as condições socioeconômicas da população extrativista em relação ao sexo, idade e escolaridade? foi realizada uma revisão sistemática da literatura dos últimos trinta anos, com busca através de termos padronizados nas bases de dados, Web of Science, Scopus e Scielo. Os artigos encontrados foram avaliados obedecendo critérios de inclusão e exclusão, seguindo o protocolo Prisma. Foram selecionadas 65 publicações, das quais a maioria foi publicada entre 2011 e 2021. Resultados: O bioma mais estudado foi a Amazônia (15 estudos) e o país foi o Brasil com 45 estudos. Ao todo, 269 espécies pertencentes a 47 gêneros foram citadas nos artigos. Os gêneros mais citados foram: Geonoma, Bactris, Attalea, Astrocaryum, Aiphanes, Desmoncus, Wettinia e Syagrus, com categorias de uso voltadas para construção, alimentação, cultural e medicinal. Os frutos foram os órgãos mais citados (71,8%), seguidos das folhas, caule, raiz e sementes. As condições socioeconômicas das populações estudadas apresentaram um maior número de mulheres participantes dos estudos, o nível de escolaridade não foi abordado na maioria dos artigos (69,2%) o que dificultou a interpretação da condição socioeconômica. A idade dos participantes variou entre 15 e 93 anos, em que os mais velhos tiveram maior conhecimento sobre os usos. Nesse estudo foi possível identificar os principais gêneros, órgãos, tipos de uso e as condições socioeconômicas das comunidades extrativistas de palmeiras. Entretanto, a falta de padronização nos termos utilizados e ausência de estatística descritiva (e.g., tamanho amostral, média e desvio padrão) foi um fator limitante deste trabalho, sendo necessária uma padronização da nomenclatura utilizada na literatura. Conclusão: A ausência de padronização não permitiu a aplicação de uma abordagem de revisão meta-analítica. O nosso estudo pode servir de base para destacar o conhecimento de palmeiras na América do Sul e direcionar futuras pesquisas e ações de conservação.

Authors: Carvalho Andréa , Santos Adriell , Corrêa Cynthia , Santos Ricardo
Published: October 2023

O presente trabalho descreve o processo de criação de sinais em Libras pelos seus usuários, pessoas surdas e ouvintes, levando em conta os estudos linguísticos constitutivos da língua: fonologia – configuração de mão, ponto de articulação, orientação, movimento, expressão facial/corporal ou expressões não-manuais –, morfologia, sintaxe, semântica e pragmática, bem como a perspectiva histórico-social da formação de sinais. São abordados o papel do contexto e construção do significado e a arbitrariedade e iconicidade no processo de criação. A metodologia utilizada foi a analítica qualitativa de investigação bibliográfica com a finalidade de conhecer as possíveis pesquisas nesta área de formação de sinais em Libras. Como resultados da pesquisa, percebe-se que ainda temos pouco conteúdo científico sobre o assunto, e que tanto surdos quanto ouvintes são usuários da Libras e fazem parte da comunidade surda.

Published: October 2023

O artigo se ampara na metodologia qualitativa e apresenta uma revisão bibliográfica que discute inclusão escolar, capacitismo, modelo social da deficiência e os documentos legais sobre inclusão. Objetiva evidenciar a necessidade de políticas públicas de formação de professores numa perspectiva inclusiva, para tanto, a pesquisa investiga o documento oficial orientador da formação básica de professores na busca por diálogos com a educação inclusiva. O texto evidencia o aumento de matrículas de alunos público da educação especial em escolas regulares de ensino e a urgência do acesso deles ao currículo. Observa-se que as orientações da Base Nacional Comum para a Formação Inicial de Professores da Educação Básica (2019) foram pautadas nas competências e habilidades requeridas aos discentes na Base Nacional Comum Curricular (2017), com natureza produtivista e performática focada em padrões de eficácia e eficiência acadêmicas. Como proposta o artigo discute o Desenho Universal na Aprendizagem (DUA) como meio de assegurar o direito à igualdade em meio à diferença, pois busca superar a visão capacitista que estigmatiza e relaciona deficiência com incapacidade.

Authors: Doğan Yeşim , Beydağ Kerime Derya
Published: October 2023

Objective: This study is carried out to determine the health beliefs of academician nurses regarding HPV (human papillomavirus) infection and HPV vaccine and the factors influencing these beliefs.

Methods: This study, which has a descriptive and cross-sectional research design, was conducted with 201 academician nurses who have been actively working at universities in Turkey between August and October 2020. The research data were obtained using the Personal Information Form and the Health Belief Model Scale on the Human Papillomavirus Infection and Vaccination.

Results: The “perceived susceptibility” of the participants, who were vaccinated with the HPV vaccine, was found to be high, whereas their “perceived barriers” were found to be low. Additionally, the “perceived susceptibility” of those, who stated that they did not get vaccinated with the HPV vaccine since they were not in the risk group, was found to be low, whereas the “perceived barriers” of those, who stated that they did not get vaccinated with the HPV vaccine since it is expensive, was found to be high. On the other hand, the “perceived benefits” of those, who stated that they would get vaccinated with the HPV vaccine if the vaccine were free of charge, were found to be high, whereas the “perceived susceptibility” of those, who stated that they would get vaccinated with the HPV vaccine if a considerable number of people get vaccinated, was found to be low.

Conclusion: It has been concluded as a result of the study that strengthening the health beliefs of academician nurses about HPV vaccine would be effective in raising awareness about vaccination with the HPV vaccine.

Amaç: Bu araştırma, yeni doğum yapmış annelerin doğum endişelerini belirlemek amacıyla yapıldı.

Yöntem: Tanımlayıcı tipteki araştırma, 22 Ocak-22 Şubat 2018 tarihleri arasında Gaziantep’te bir eğitim ve araştırma hastanesi ile kadın doğum ve çocuk hastanesinde uygulandı. Araştırmanın örneklemini, belirtilen hastanelerin kadın doğum servisinde yeni doğum yapmış ve araştırmaya katılmayı kabul eden 482 anne oluşturdu. Veriler, annelerin sosyo-demografik ve obstetrik öykülerini içeren “Anket Formu” ve “Oxford Doğum Endişesi Ölçeği (ODEÖ)” kullanılarak toplandı. Verilerin analizinde sayı-yüzde dağılımı, t testi ve varyans analizi, Kruskal Wallis H ve Mann Whitney U testi kullanıldı.

Bulgular: Annelerin en yüksek puan ortalamasını Ağrı ve sıkıntı alt boyutundan, en düşük puan ortalamasını Müdahaleler alt boyutundan aldıkları ve ölçek puan ortalamasının 26.30±8.39 olduğu saptandı. Yaşı genç, eğitim seviyesi düşük, ev halkı hane sayısı, yaşayan çocuk sayısı ve gebelik sayısı az, son gebeliği planlı ve normal doğum yapan annelerin doğum endişelerinin daha fazla olduğu ve ODEÖ’nden aldıkları puan ortalamalarının daha düşük ve istatistiksel olarak anlamlı olduğu saptandı (p
Mobilité des salariés et performance des entreprises du secteur public en Afrique francophone : une analyse du cas de la CAMWATER au Cameroun
Authors: Zogning Félix , Mendomo Mireille Bityé , Mgba Jean Sylvain
Published: October 2023

L’article traite des enjeux de la mobilité des employés sur la performance des entreprises publiques en Afrique, avec le cas précis de la CAMWATER. Suivant une approche qualitative, les données proviennent des sources documentaires et de terrain. Les résultats issus des analyses manuelle et automatisée de contenu révèlent que les pratiques liées aux mobilités de compétence et d’environnement, revêtent des enjeux organisationnels et humains. Cette configuration reste néanmoins plus théorique qu’opérationnelle, en raison de nombreuses contraintes organisationnelles et sources d’inefficacité managériale telles comme une définition peu claire des critères de choix de mobilité, une longévité du personnel au poste de travail, etc.
L’orientation entrepreneuriale du dirigeant comme clé de voûte de la rapidité d’internationalisation : cas des PME marocaines de petite taille
Authors: Rouijel Mohamed Reda
Published: October 2023

Cet article s’intéresse généralement à l’étude de l’orientation entrepreneuriale internationale (OEI) du dirigeant comme déterminant de la rapidité du processus de l’internationalisation des PME de petite taille. Il s’agit aussi de mettre l’accent sur le rôle clef joué par l’adoption des stratégies de niche et de réseautage, afin que cette ouverture précoce rencontre le succès escompté. En étudiant un échantillon de 51 dirigeants de PME à internationalisation rapide moyennant la méthode des équations structurelles, les résultats montrent que l’OEI du dirigeant a un effet indirect sur la rapidité de l’internationalisation via les deux variables : la stratégie de niche et la mobilisation des réseaux du dirigeant.
Determinants of pharmaceutical innovation in low and middle-income countries: Empirical study conducted in Morocco

Published: October 2023

Sachant que les entreprises pharmaceutiques dans les Pays à Revenu Faible ou Intermédiaire (PRFI) éprouvent des difficultés liées aux coûts de la Recherche et Développement (R&D), la réglementation, la concurrence des médicaments importés et l’expiration des brevets, l’innovation, devient leur principale issue de survie et d’évolution. Par ailleurs, les recherches examinant l’innovation dans un contexte similaire au nôtre sont rares. Nous accomplissons la présente recherche pour remédier à cette insuffisance et pour fournir aux managers les outils qui leurs permettent d’inscrire leurs entreprises dans la dynamique de l’innovation. L’intérêt majeur de ce papier est de présenter les différentes dimensions de l’innovation pharmaceutique et d’identifier les principaux facteurs qui la promeuvent. Nous utilisons une démarche quantitative par régression logistique et nous démontrons que les activités de R&D, l’organisation interne du travail et l’exportation sont les principaux facteurs de l’innovation de produit et de processus. Par ailleurs, l’âge et la taille de l’entreprise n’influencent pas significativement ces deux types d’innovation.
Mapping Economists’ Belief Spaces Using Survey Data
Authors: Gunten Tod Van
Published: October 2023

Most survey research on the beliefs of economists has focused on measuring consensus within the profession. Researchers have given less emphasis to other aspects of the organization of economists’ belief systems. This paper shows using representative survey data for the first time that economists’ beliefs on an important subset of policy-relevant beliefs are ideologically aligned, despite moderately high levels of agreement on these issues. The analysis does not support the existence of a second dimension of alignment capturing a Keynesian/anti-Keynesian split on macroeconomic stabilization topics. Going beyond conventional methods, the paper also reports the results of belief network centrality and correlational class analyses, methods motivated by recent developments in cognitive science and cultural sociology. This analysis suggests that beliefs including those relating to inequality and redistribution, the level of government spending, environmental regulation, and the minimum wage play a generative role in economists’ belief systems. The results also indicate that the main source of heterogeneity in economists' belief systems is between ideologically aligned and less ideologically aligned subgroups. There is limited evidence of qualitatively distinct patterns of construals of relations between beliefs. Finally, although the analysis is tentative, I fail to find evidence supporting the hypothesis of a decrease in ideological alignment since the 1970s.
The Gender Gap in UK Academic Economics 1996-2018: Progress, Stagnation and Retreat
Authors: Bateman Victoria , Hengel Erin
Published: October 2023

This article reports on women’s representation in UK economics over the last quarter century. While progress has been made, women in 2018 were only 32 percent of economics undergraduate students and 26 percent of academic economists. Our data also suggest several areas of stagnation and retreat. First, the percentage of female UK nationals studying economics is low and falling over time. Second, female economists are substantially more likely to be employed at lower academic ranks and in fixed-term—and generally lower status—teaching- and research-only positions. Third, the representation of women is especially low among ethnic minorities studying for an economics PhD. And finally, the percentage of economics professors with Asian ethnicity who are women has been falling over time, and at no point between 2012-2018 was a Black female professor of economics employed anywhere in the UK.
