Ratio wobec sztuki, także sakralnej
Authors: Nadrowski Henryk
Published: July 2018

Art not only arouses emotion and aesthetic experience through the beauty. It is also a message of different content. It stimulates reflection and contemplation at the same time. It is also a testimony of the time and the artist himself. Sacrum has a cognitive, didactic but also mystical and eschatological role. To effectively assist in meeting the God, it should merge the triad: fides, ratio and ars.
JEZUS CHRYSTUS, NASZA NADZIEJA
Authors: Dziuba Andrzej
Published: July 2018

Questions about man, his freedom and liberation, are very important for human existence. Jesus Christ and His paschal mystery are the roots of Christian hope. Jesus is hope’s bearer, however He requires our trust. Jesus Christ fulfills in Himself all the Messianic promises, especially the one of salvific newness of life in the New Covenant, also called the new humanity. The central sign of this newness is the coming of God’s Kingdom. The universality of the Resurrection’s gift brings us hope that all human beings might experience new life. The salvific gift refers to the renewal of the world in the renewal of all men. And yet, the voice of the culture of death—which is the negation of man, his dignity and his hope—is loudly heard in today’s world. The culture of life, on the other hand, brings real hope, especially when it is marked by respect for life. The Christian attitude is one of thanking and praising the Lord in the power of the Holy Spirit. Christ is the hope of the people,of the world, and, therefore, of the new evangelization.
TEOLOGIA W SŁUŻBIE WIARY – REFLEKSJA NAD LEKTURĄ KATECHEZY BENEDYKTA XVI „RADOŚĆ WIARY”
Authors: Lewandowski Jerzy
Published: July 2018

In a contemporary, secularized society, faith is undervalued and marginalized.How can we find the “joy of faith” nowadays? A deepening response to this questionis found in “Joy of Faith,” which is a type of catechesis by Pope Benedict XVI connected to the Year of faith. A re-reading of Pope’s thought gives a specialopportunity to realize the apparent truth that modern theology serves to awakenthe “joy of faith.” Turning this thought aside: believers need contemporary theologyso that their faith can be deepened, joyful and courageous in the discourse with“apostles” of religious indifference and moral relativism. Reading of papal catechesisreveals that faith gives a renewed glimpse into human existence, enables usto discover in God the source of truth, introduces in the experience of the action ofthe Holy Spirit and of the Church, and finally gives assurance of salvation, whichfor the Christian is the foundation of the ultimate (eschatological) joy.

In 1946, after the end of the II World War, in view of the menaces linked tocommunist atheism an act of entrustment of the nation to the Immaculate Heart ofOur Lady was performed on the initiative of the Primate of Poland August Hlond.Looking at the origins of the event, on the one hand we can see the reference to theoath of King John II Casimir Vasa, and on the other hand to the revelations of Fatima,which are an encouragement to entrust humanity to the Immaculate Heart of Mary.A. Hlond sees the urgency of moral and religious renewal of the nation in the timesof damages caused by war and new dangers linked to communist atheism. Choicesmade by Poland and Poles have a particular meaning for our Slavic neighbours andthe whole world. In the period of violent political changes, A. Hlond looks at thefuture of the Church, Poland and the world with hope. It is Mary who can securethe future and protect the Church from the powers of darkness and bring victory.
CZŁOWIEK I ŚMIERĆ – MIĘDZY SEPARACJĄ A BLISKOŚCIĄ
Authors: Ochotny Piotr
Published: July 2018

The author, in his paper, pays close attention to the uncontrolled dialectics ofdeath within human existence; that which is actively experienced but passivelysustained; is the end of everything but the beginning of something new; is absolutecertainty but unpredictable uncertainty; is always and only personal for me but always and only personal for others, too. In fact, it is very difficult to explain themeaning of death from an ontological study of death: if and how death exists in thearea of human experience; if death is an immanent possibility for personal existenceor, is it introduced from outwith and occurs when we are not still living. To respondto these questions, the author proposes to use the bridging term, with which variousphilosophical positions can be qualified. This bridging term is ‘distance’ and ourdeath experience is defined as the distance between man (person acting) and hissubject (experience). The dialectical nature of this experience implies that deathmight be through an infinite separation or an infinite closeness to man. Driftingbetween those faraway shores, we can find in Emmanuel Levinas’ philosophy. Herefers to death as Other (something else for man), but this does not mean that deathis strange or unknown within one’s life experience.

Authors: Otkhmezuri Boris , Boffo Marilisa , Siriaraya Panote , Matsangidou Maria , Wiers Reinout W , Mackintosh Bundy , Ang Chee Siang , Salemink Elske
Published: July 2018

BACKGROUND

Cognitive Bias Modification of Interpretations (CBM-I) is a computerized intervention designed to change negatively biased interpretations of ambiguous information, which underlie and reinforce anxiety. The repetitive and monotonous features of CBM-I can negatively impact training adherence and learning processes.

OBJECTIVE

This proof-of-concept study aimed to examine whether performing a CBM-I training using mobile virtual reality technology (virtual reality Cognitive Bias Modification of Interpretations [VR-CBM-I]) improves training experience and effectiveness.

METHODS

A total of 42 students high in trait anxiety completed 1 session of either VR-CBM-I or standard CBM-I training for performance anxiety. Participants’ feelings of immersion and presence, emotional reactivity to a stressor, and changes in interpretation bias and state anxiety, were assessed.

RESULTS

The VR-CBM-I resulted in greater feelings of presence (P<.001, d=1.47) and immersion (P<.001, ηp2=0.74) in the training scenarios and outperformed the standard training in effects on state anxiety (P<.001, ηp2=0.3) and emotional reactivity to a stressor (P=.03, ηp2=0.12). Both training varieties successfully increased the endorsement of positive interpretations (P<.001, drepeated measures [drm]=0.79) and decreased negative ones. (P<.001, drm=0.72). In addition, changes in the emotional outcomes were correlated with greater feelings of immersion and presence.

CONCLUSIONS

This study provided first evidence that (1) the putative working principles underlying CBM-I trainings can be translated into a virtual environment and (2) virtual reality holds promise as a tool to boost the effects of CMB-I training for highly anxious individuals while increasing users’ experience with the training application.
Customizing the Types of Technologies Used by Patients With Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus for Diabetes Treatment: Case Series on Patient Experience (Preprint)
Authors: Holubová Anna , Vlasáková Martina , Mužík Jan , Brož Jan
Published: July 2018

BACKGROUND

Despite the fact there are many wearable and mobile medical devices that enable patients to better self-manage their diabetes, not many patients are aware of all the options they have. In addition, there are those who are not fully satisfied with the devices they use, and those who often do not use them effectively.

OBJECTIVE

The study aimed to propose possible changes to the combination of devices used by 6 specific patients for diabetes self-management. We assessed the suitability of selected technical devices for diabetes control.

METHODS

Data of 6 patients (3 men and 3 women) with type 1 diabetes mellitus, who had been using the Diani telemedicine system for at least 3 months, were analyzed. The suitability of selected technical devices for diabetes control was ascertained using the data obtained via the Diani telemedicine system, as well as the patients’ subjective feelings and statements, their everyday life habits, and self-management of diabetes. Informed consent was signed and obtained from each of the patients included.

RESULTS

Each of the presented case studies describes how a given patient handled the system and its specific components based on his or her lifestyle, level of education, habits related to diabetes management, personality type, and other factors. At the conclusion of each case study, the best composition of devices for patients with similar personal descriptions was suggested.

CONCLUSIONS

We believe this study can provide relevant guidance on how to help particular patients choose the technology that is best suited for their needs, based on the specific patient information we are able to obtain from them. Furthermore, clinicians or educators should be aware of available technologies a given patient can choose from. In addition, there is a substantial need for proper patient education in order for them to effectively use devices for diabetes self-management.
Use of the Principles of Design Thinking to Address Limitations of Digital Mental Health Interventions for Youth: Viewpoint (Preprint)
Authors: Scholten Hanneke , Granic Isabela
Published: July 2018

UNSTRUCTURED

Numerous reviews and meta-analyses have indicated the enormous potential of technology to improve the appeal, effectiveness, cost, and reach of mental health interventions. However, the promise of digital mental health interventions for youth has not yet been realized. Significant challenges have been repeatedly identified, including engagement, fidelity, and the lack of personalization. We introduce the main tenets of design thinking and explain how they can specifically address these challenges, with an entirely new toolbox of mindsets and practices. In addition, we provide examples of a new wave of digital interventions to demonstrate the applicability of design thinking to a wide range of intervention goals. In the future, it will be critical for scientists and clinicians to implement their scientific standards, methods, and review outlets to evaluate the contribution of design thinking to the next iteration of digital mental health interventions for youth.

BACKGROUND

As the use of digital media for health promotion has become increasingly common, descriptive studies exploring current and innovative marketing strategies can enhance the understanding of effective strategies and best practices.

OBJECTIVE

This study aims to describe the implementation of a provincial digital media campaign using complementary advertising platforms to promote healthy pregnancy weight gain messages and direct a Web audience to a credible website.

METHODS

The digital media campaign occurred in 3 phases, each for 8 weeks, and consisted of search engine marketing using Google AdWords and social media advertising through Facebook. All advertising materials directed users to evidence-based pregnancy-related weight gain content on the Healthy Parents, Healthy Children website.

RESULTS

Google Ads received a total of 43,449 impressions, 2522 clicks, and an average click-through rate (CTR) of 5.80%. Of people who clicked on a Google ad, 78.9% (1989/2522) completed an action on the website. Across all Facebook advertisements, there were 772,263 impressions, 14,482 clicks, and an average CTR of 1.88%. The highest-performing advertisement was an image of a group of diverse pregnant women with the headline “Pregnancy weight is not the same for every woman.”

CONCLUSIONS

This study supports the use of digital marketing as an important avenue for delivering health messages and directing Web users to credible sources of information. The opportunity to reach large, yet targeted audiences, along with the ability to monitor and evaluate metrics to optimize activities throughout a campaign is a powerful advantage over traditional marketing tactics. Health organizations can use the results and insights of this study to help inform the design and implementation of similar Web-based activities.

Analyzing Twitter as a Platform for Alzheimer-Related Dementia Awareness: Thematic Analyses of Tweets (Preprint)
Authors: Cheng Tiffany Yi-Mei , Liu Lisa , Woo Benjamin KP
Published: July 2018

BACKGROUND

Dementia is a prevalent disorder among adults and often subjects an individual and his or her family. Social media websites may serve as a platform to raise awareness for dementia and allow researchers to explore health-related data.

OBJECTIVE

The objective of this study was to utilize Twitter, a social media website, to examine the content and location of tweets containing the keyword “dementia” to better understand the reasons why individuals discuss dementia. We adopted an approach that analyzed user location, user category, and tweet content subcategories to classify large publicly available datasets.

METHODS

A total of 398 tweets were collected using the Twitter search application programming interface with the keyword “dementia,” circulated between January and February 2018. Twitter users were categorized into 4 categories: general public, health care field, advocacy organization, and public broadcasting. Tweets posted by “general public” users were further subcategorized into 5 categories: mental health advocate, affected persons, stigmatization, marketing, and other. Placement into the categories was done through thematic analysis.

RESULTS

A total of 398 tweets were written by 359 different screen names from 28 different countries. The largest number of Twitter users were from the United States and the United Kingdom. Within the United States, the largest number of users were from California and Texas. The majority (281/398, 70.6%) of Twitter users were categorized into the “general public” category. Content analysis of tweets from the “general public” category revealed stigmatization (113/281, 40.2%) and mental health advocacy (102/281, 36.3%) as the most common themes. Among tweets from California and Texas, California had more stigmatization tweets, while Texas had more mental health advocacy tweets.

CONCLUSIONS

Themes from the content of tweets highlight the mixture of the political climate and the supportive network present on Twitter. The ability to use Twitter to combat stigma and raise awareness of mental health indicates the benefits that can potentially be facilitated via the platform, but negative stigmatizing tweets may interfere with the effectiveness of this social support.

Authors: Chu Hui-Chun , Liu Yi-Meng , Kuo Fan-Ray
Published: July 2018

BACKGROUND

Insomnia can significantly affect students’ learning performance. Researchers have indicated the importance and challenge of coping with insomnia using nondrug treatments, such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) for insomnia. However, it is easy for the traditional CBT for insomnia to be interrupted owing to the overly lengthy period of sleep therapy. Self-regulated learning (SRL) strategies are known to be an effective approach for helping students improve their time management, as well as their ability to set learning goals and adopt learning strategies.

OBJECTIVE

The objective of this study was to propose a mobile sleep-management learning system integrated with SRL strategies and CBT.

METHODS

A total of 18 undergraduate students from a university in northern Taiwan participated in the 2-week experiment of using this sleep-management system.

RESULTS

The experimental results showed that the proposed approach was useful and easy for students to use. In addition, the number of students with insomnia significantly decreased; that is, the proposed approach could help students improve their sleep quality and cultivate better sleeping habits, which is important for them to enhance their learning efficiency.

CONCLUSIONS

With the assistance of this proposed approach, students can plan their daily life by setting goals, applying strategies, monitoring their life habits process, and modifying strategies to cultivate good learning and healthy lifestyle habits.

Members of the genus Pulicaria have been used in traditional medicine for alleviating several complaints as they have a rich pool of biometabolites. Acute lung injury (ALI) is a serious disease with an elevated mortality rate. The present investigation aimed to evaluate the total phenolic and flavonoid contents and antioxidant capacity of the methanolic extract of P. petiolaris Jaub. and Spach. (PP) (Asteraceae). Moreover, the potential protective potential of PP against lipopolysaccharide-(LPS)-induced ALI was assessed. PP is a rich source of phenolics and flavonoids. The total phenolic content (TPC) was 68.05 mg gallic acid equivalent (GAE)/g dried extract, and the total flavonoid content (TFC) was 45.86 mg quercetin equivalent (QE)/g dried extract. Additionally, PP possessed a promising DPPH-scavenging activity, with an IC50=27 ?g/mL. Our results showed that PP lessened LPS-induced lung injury. PP effectively reduced pulmonary edema as it lowered total protein and the lung wet/dry weight (W/D) ratio in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF). It also significantly ameliorated the level of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) in the BALF and improved the histopathological lesions in the lung tissue. LPS-induced inflammatory cell infiltration was greatly depressed in PP-treated animals. PP showed antioxidant capacity as it reduced the LPS-induced increase in the lipid peroxidation marker, malondialdehyde (MDA). It also increased the activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and the content of reduced glutathione (GSH). This study indicates that PP significantly decreased LPS-induced inflammation in the LPS-mediated ALI murine model, suggesting that it may become a significant preventive strategy for treating nonspecific inflammation of the lungs.

Eğitimde Eşitlik Politikalarının Amartya Sen’in Kapasite Yaklaşımı açısından Analizi
Authors: KÜLAHOĞLU Şermin
Published: July 2018

Eğitimin demokratikleşmesi yönündeki sosyo-politik
arayışlar, öncelikle herkese eğitilme hakkı talebiyle başlamış, sonraki dönemlerde, herkese eşit muamele hakkı, yani eğitim alma hakkının, kişisel
ve ailesel durumuna bağlı sonuçlarla engellenmemesi istenmiştir. 70li yılların
sonunda ise şans eşitliğinden de öte, sonuçların eşitliğini hedefleyen onarıcı
denge politikaları ve girişimler gündeme gelmiştir.

Bu çalışmada, eğitimde demokratikleşme arayışına
ilişkin tüm bu değişimlerin, A. Sen’in, gerçek özgürlüklere atıf yapan kapasite
geliştirmeye odaklı eşitlik anlayışının hayata geçmesini ne ölçüde sağlayabildiği
irdelenmiştir. Eğitimde eşitlik algısında, tarihsel süreç boyunca yaşanan gelişmelerin,
eğitimde eşitsizlikleri ne ölçüde azaltabildiği sorusuna yanıt aranmıştır.  

A. Sen’in kuramı, eğitim eşitsizliklerinin kaynağındaki frenleyici süreçleri incelemeye
uygun bir kuramsal çerçeve sunmaktadır. Sen’in
kapasite yaklaşımıyla, ölçülebilir değişkenler olarak görülmediği
için değerlendirme dışına itilen, kilit roldeki faktörler, ölçülebilir
analizler içine dahil edilebilmektedir.

Sosyal hizmet mesleği doğuşundan bu yana temelinde yardımseverlik olan bir toplumsal harekettir. Temelinde yardım olan bir disiplinin uygulayıcıları için de yardım etme davranışı biçilmiş bir kaftandır. Bu çalışma; geleceğin yardım ilişkilerini başlatacak olan sosyal hizmet öğrencilerinin bazı değişkenlere göre yardım tutumlarını belirlemek amacıyla gönüllü 188 sosyal hizmet lisans öğrencisi üzerinde yürütülmüştür. Çalışmada Nickell (1998, ss. 4-10) tarafından geliştirilen ve araştırmacılar tarafından Türkçeye uyarlanan Yardım Tutum Ölçeği katılımcıların yardımla ilgili davranışlarını, duygularını ve inançlarını değerlendirmek amacıyla kullanılmış, ölçeğin güvenirliğine ilişkin Cronbach Alpha değeri 0,83 olarak bulunmuştur. Ölçekte yer alan 3 alt boyutla ilişkili olarak “Fedakar” alt boyutunun Cronbach Alpha değeri 0,80 ,  “Kendine Yeten/Alıp Verici” alt boyunun Cronbach Alpha değeri 0,69 ve “Bencil”  alt boyunun Cronbach Alpha değeri 0,61’tür. Sonuç olarak öğrencilerin yardım tutumlarının en çok “kendine yeten”, en az “bencil” olarak tanımlanabileceği; yardım tutumlarının cinsiyete, sınıfa ve yaşa göre değişmediği (p>0.05) saptanmıştır. Açımlayıcı faktör analizi ve doğrulayıcı faktör analiz sonuçlarına göre, ölçeğin Türkçe formunun katılımcıların yardımla ilgili davranışlarını, duygularını ve inançlarını değerlendirmede kullanılabileceği düşünülmektedir.

Bu çalışmada, ilkokul öğrencilerinin “ideal
sınıf ortamına” ilişkin metaforlarının belirlenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Araştırmada
nitel araştırma yaklaşımı ve buna bağlı olarak fenomenoloji yöntemi tercih
edilmiştir. Araştırmanın örneklemini amaçlı örnekleme yoluyla seçilen Rize ili,
Güneysu ilçesinin bir ilkokulunda, 2014-2015 eğitim-öğretim yılında 3. sınıfta
öğrenim gören 30 öğrenci oluşturmuştur. Veriler, yarı-yapılandırılmış görüşme
tekniği ile toplanmıştır. Elde edilen veriler, üst düzey analiz biçiminden olan
içerik analizi yöntemiyle analiz edilmiştir. Araştırma sonucunda, ilkokul
öğrencilerinin ideal sınıf ortamına ilişkin olarak 12 farklı metafor
ürettikleri tespit edilmiştir. En fazla metafor üretilen tema “geniş mekanlar”
ve en çok ifade edilen metafor “ev” kavramı olmuştur. Metaforlardan eğitim
ortamlarında yararlanılabileceği, ideal sınıf ortamına ilişkin farklı yöntemler
kullanılarak da çalışmalar yürütülebileceği ve böylece bu alandaki
araştırmalara katkıda bulunulabileceği önerilmiştir.
