Vasil Ekzemplarsky and Petro Kudryavtsev: at the Crossroads of Creative Paths
Authors: Pastushenko Luidmyla
Published: December 2023

In the article, for the first time, a comparative analysis of the creative biographies of Kyiv thinkers, pupils and teachers of the Kyiv Theological Academy (1819–1924), Pyotr Kudryavtsev (1868–1940) and Vasyl Ekzemplyarskyi (1875–1933) was carried out. The educational, cultural and historical background of the formation of religious-philosophical and religious-publicist views of Kyiv philosophers is reproduced, the common origin of their creative intuitions is shown. The main similar research ideas, topics and directions of their scientific and educational activity are revealed. The similarity in the interpretation of one of the core ideas of their work – the Christian idea of the kingdom of God – is shown. The origin of this idea in the philosophical worldview of thinkers is admitted, the significance of this idea in their ethical and historicalphilosophical heritage is demonstrated. Both thinkers have distinctly similar interpretations of the themes of religious journalism, the core of which are: religious revival, the relationship between politics and religion and politics and morality, state-church relations in the Russian state, ways of church reformation. The inseparable unity of their philosophical and worldview foundations, theoretical principles with life, the practical implementation of the ideas advocated by the thinkers, which allowed them to preserve the integrity and organicity of their own personality, is shown. It was also demonstrated the importance for the development of philosophical thought of the unique communicative space created by Kyiv academic philosophers, the atmosphere of lively communication, within which similar philosophical and worldview intuitions, value-meaning principles and life guidelines were developed.

“Hardworking and Tireless” Vasyl Hermanovych — Singer and Servant to Four Generations of Princes of Ostroh
Authors: Teslenko Ihor
Published: December 2023

Scholars, including music historians, have long been interested in the cultural centers of early modern Ukraine-Rus’. One of these centers located in Ostroh (Volhynian palatinate of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth) existed in the last third of the sixteenth and first half of the seventeenth centuries. Ostroh was famous not only for its mighty fortress, a printing house, the intellectuals circle, and the Slavic-Greek-Latin Academy but also for its “singing school,” which introduced a co-called “Ostroh tune.” It is not known for certain when the school was founded and by whom, and in general, very little information has been preserved about the musicians and singers who lived in the city during this “classical period.” This article aims to fill in some gaps and introduce new biographical material related to Vasyl Hermanovych († 1626), who was a court singer of the voivode of Kyiv Prince Vasyl-Kostiantyn Ostrozkyi (1526–1608) and served to several generations of his descendants. Until now, information about Vasyl Hermanovych was limited to mentioning him as Vasyl Spivak in a document of 1621. Thanks to the discovery of other manuscripts, including his will, it has become possible to significantly expand our knowledge about the singer. The article considers the origin of Vasyl Hermanovych and reconstructs his family ties, the conditions of his service, and material support. A particular focus is on the last wishes of the singer, who asked to be buried in the Derman Holy Trinity Monastery and bequeathed all his property to his wife and a close relative, whom he specified as a “grandson” in his will. Vasyl Hermanovych’s will is published in the appendix to the article.
Violation of food taboos by peasant women of Kyiv region and political use of accusations of anthropophagy: the case of Hanna Bilorus
Authors: Bernadska Anhelina
Published: December 2023

The article analyzes the emergence of psychopathological changes in peasant women resulting from long-term deprivation, using the examples of the archival and criminal case of Hanna Bilorus, oral historical testimonies, and official sources. These changes affected the deformation of women’s behavior and led to the spread of its extreme manifestations — violations of food taboos, an increase in cases of anthropophagy and necrophagy since the beginning of 1933. However, they were perceived by the peasants in different ways: from a sympathetic attitude to condemnation and lynchings. We discovered the long-term impact of the consequences of cannibalism on rural communities and the psyche of eyewitnesses to the tragedy. Additionally, it investigates the representation of cannibalism cases by the authorities, which often carry political undertones. Anthropophages were represented in official sources as marginal non-working elements (“ledar”), representatives of hostile social groups (“kurkuli”, “odnoosibnyky”), and spies. Using the archive-criminal case of Hanna Bilorus, the article demonstrates the correlation between accusations of espionage for Poland and the suspicion of cannibalism with the broader political context of 1932–1933. This context emphasized the “Polish threat” and the alleged dismantling of the DPU «counter-revolutionary network» associated with the Polish General Staff.
The Second Italo-Ethiopian War in the publicistics by Yevhen Onatskyi
Authors: Sytor Anton
Published: December 2023

The article analyzes the evolution of the publicist narrative about the Second Italo-Ethiopian War (1935–1936) of the Ukrainian nationalist intellectual, member of the Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists and its representative in fascist Italy Yevhen Onatskyi (1894–1979). This evolution is presented in the apology of Italian colonialism and the advocacy of the Ukrainian people’s right to national self-determination.The article discusses Onatskyi’s attempts to distribute his views on Italian aggression among OUN top members and other emigration circle representatives through private correspondence. Based on the analysis of these attempts, as well as considering sources of information about Onatskyi’s contacts with officials of the Mussolini regime, preliminary assumptions are made about the degree of Onatskyi’s involvement in the structure of the Italian governmental propaganda machine.Developing his argumentation, Onatskyi relayed to his readers the theses of Italian imperial propaganda, which this article examines as part of a larger network of rhetoric and themes common to Modern colonial powers. In this context are employed models that allow not only the detection of variations of transimperial themes in the Italian fascist propaganda broadcast by Onatskyi but also to detect peculiarities of its application to the Second Italo-Ethiopian War.During 1935–1936, Onatskyi declared the “injustice” of the distribution of colonies between the leading empires, formulated arguments in favor of justifying anti-British sentiment, defended the civilizing mission of the Mussolini regime, appealed to the “barbarism” of Ethiopians using racist rhetoric. In the period of 1936–1937 Onatskyi formulated an interpretive structure that connected pro-fascist, pro-Ukrainian, anti-Ethiopian and anti-Soviet positions into a single authoritarian-nationalist system of views.
Sociology of childhood evolution: in the world and in Ukraine
Authors: Sanina Tetiana
Published: December 2023

The sociology of childhood, as a separate branch of sociology, emerged about forty years ago. Until then, children and childhood were considered only within the framework of the sociology of family or the sociology of age. In the article, I consider the following questions: what exactly led to the emergence of a new field? How and under the influence of what changed the traditional attitude of social science to children and childhood during the twentieth century. What is the New sociology of childhood and Childhood Studies and how do the views of their proponents differ from traditional ones? What principles unite researchers of the new sociology of childhood and how is the sociology of childhood developing in Ukraine?The childhood phenomenon, despite all the achievements and development of social sciences, is still difficult to define. During the twentieth century, the perception of childhood and the attitude of researchers toward children changed. Sociologists of childhood no longer perceive children as passive, innocent, firmly embedded in the family, and “non-yet-adults” whose main goal is to properly socialize. Now, according to sociologists, children are perceived as active and unique social actors that need to be studied intersectionally, in the context of gender, class, ethnicity, and outside the family. The perception of the child has changed – from a usual future adult in the 1960s to a real member of society that can influence the world of adults in the 1980s. All this happened due to the influence of interactionists schools in sociology, researchers of subcultures and age groups, as well as social movements for women’s rights and civil rights. The new sociology of childhood and childhood studies has set new goals – to explore children’s practices as the activities of socially active agents, using methods that take into account age characteristics, but do not reduce children’s ability to reflect and formulate their own point of view. During the last 40 years, the followers of the new paradigm actively created a new scientific community and tried to change the attitude towards children and childhood not only within the social sciences but also outside of it. They partially succeeded, but many of the announced goals remained unfulfilled. Ukraine and Ukrainian researchers of childhood are taking the first confident steps in this field. We need more translations of world classics into Ukrainian language, as well as the results of original Ukrainian researchers into English. As well as we need more students enrolled in relevant programs and funding for the National Center for Childhood Studies.
Fostering learner agency in Ukrainian innovative schools: prioritizing factors of innovative learning environment
Authors: Humeniuk Victoria
Published: December 2023

The objective of this article is to present and deliberate upon the initial phase of research outcomes obtained from an online survey involving 22 founders/directors of private innovative and alternative schools in Ukraine. By employing a scaling instrument research participants evaluated the importance of innovative learning environment (ILE) factors. The outcomes of this assessment serve a dual purpose: they elucidate the precedence of innovative endeavors aligned with a strong learner agency development and provide methodological guidance for subsequent in-depth interviews.The research has yielded three key findings. Firstly, a common understanding of the peculiarities of a learning process among the professionals, who work with the learners in school, supersedes structural elements, emphasizing cultural values. Secondly, the exploration of learner identity emerges as a critical facet. This finding accentuates the indispensable need to accompany learners through identity exploration and regular self-reflection in order to empower subjectivity within the learning process. Lastly, the research underscores the multidimensional nature of crucial ILE factors, implying an effective learning process with a strong learner agency as one of its results should not be misconstrued as synonymous with teaching. Yet, the pivotal role of teachers and their professional readiness to be the “conductors” of innovative learning experiences remains paramount, as vividly evidenced by the prioritization.
POSSIBILIDADES PARA UMA EDUCAÇÃO DIVERSA E INCLUSIVA NA AMAZÔNIA: UMA EXPERIÊNCIA NO SISTEMA DE ORGANIZAÇÃO MODULAR DE ENSINO NO ESTADO DO PARÁ
Authors: Silva José Moisés De Oliveira , Silva Simone Lopes
Published: December 2023

No sentido de pensar a educação para além das instituições de ensino, é necessário vislumbrar as distintas realidades, os saberes locais e suas aplicações. Este estudo investigou como se dá a relação entre as etnociências, dentro do Sistema de Organização Modular de Ensino (SOME), no âmbito da 11ª Unidade Regional de Ensino (URE) da Secretaria de Estado da Educação do Pará (SEDUC/PA) na Amazônia Oriental, em diálogo com os conteúdos programáticos do Ensino Médio da educação escolar, e a diversidade indígena, quilombola, ribeirinha, extrativista e da agricultura familiar. Os objetivos  foram: (i) compreender, por meio de uma abordagem interdisciplinar, como os Estudos Amazônicos são absorvidos dentro das disciplinas; (ii) identificar  a existência de atividades de pesquisa e extensão, ainda que na educação básica, para que as juventudes tenham oportunidades de aprendizagens de forma igualitária, tendo como motivação, uma Amazônia sustentável e inclusiva,  (iii) verificar se  o Estado busca atender o 4º Objetivo do Desenvolvimento Sustentável-ODS, observando a relação dos povos indígenas e comunidades tradicionais com a Natureza; e (iv) identificar  de que forma a educação escolar considera suas etnociências, buscando valorizar a cultura dos povos enquanto fonte de conhecimento científico, viável e necessário para uma transformação real. Nesse sentido, utilizamos entrevistas com professores e gestores e o diálogo constante com os estudantes, resultando em uma série de possibilidades que ligam as diversas compreensões ontológicas e diversos sistemas de conhecimento, frente a proposta de atender o direito cidadão, a educação por meio da educação escolar. Dessa forma, como resultados desta pesquisa, trazemos a prática da cartografia social, denominada cartografia afetiva, que permite identificar uma diversidade de saberes inerentes as comunidades, o uso da criatividade expresso em distintas linguagens, que permite a compreensão acerca de aspectos econômicos, geográficos, religiosos, cosmológicos e da agricultura, a vivencia, que são os intercâmbios entre comunidades, visitas de campo que contempla diferentes realidades, exposições na escola, a partir da cultura material e a sistematização dessas práticas para auxiliar na formação de professores, multiplicação de boas práticas, buscando atender parte da dimensão amazônica, por meio do trabalho em rede envolvendo gestores, pesquisadores, lideranças comunitárias e toda a comunidade escolar que é parte dos esforços que qualificam o ensino e a aprendizagem.
“Subvertendo espaços”: Mediação da informação, coletivos periféricos e contranarrativas à mídia hegemônica
Authors: Castro Jetur Lima de , Almeida Júnior Oswaldo Francisco de
Published: December 2023

Discute-se as ações de interferência na Mediação da informação realizadas por coletivos periféricos em Belém, Pará, visando construir contranarrativas em oposição à mídia hegemônica local. Esses coletivos buscam representar suas realidades confrontando as narrativas predominantes na mídia local. O estudo adota uma abordagem exploratória com base em análise documental e bibliográfica, utilizando o método da Análise Crítica do Discurso (ACD). Foram analisados jornais locais, como o Diário do Pará e O Liberal, no período de 1989 a 2014, para mapear a representação do bairro ao longo do tempo, e investigar as ações de interferência e construção de contranarrativas pelos coletivos periféricos. As referências teóricas incluíram autores como Marialva Barbosa e Patrick Charaudeau, enfatizando a análise das narrativas da imprensa e a informação como ato de comunicação. Alicerçado em reflexões sobre mediação, ação de interferência e Mediação da informação por autores como Davallon, Jeanneret, Martins e Almeida Júnior, o estudo teve como propósito desafiar estereótipos e promover representações autênticas e empoderadas das comunidades periféricas. Além disso, foram consideradas as referências de Van Dijk sobre a abordagem da mídia hegemônica em relação às minorias. Os resultados indicam que a Mediação da Informação, por meio da interferência, é utilizada por coletivos periféricos para competir no espaço simbólico, desafiando estereótipos e promovendo representações autênticas e empoderadas de suas comunidades. Essas ações fortalecem as lutas simbólicas por uma comunicação mais inclusiva e representativa. Em resumo, a interferência na Mediação da Informação amplia estudos e investigações, destacando o protagonismo dos moradores, que usam mídias alternativas para expressar suas experiências, enfatizando o poder transformador dessas práticas discursivas
A monumental violência do presente: reflexões críticas acerca da iconoclastia política do século XXI
Authors: Gonçalves Robson Andrade , Mucheroni Marcos Luiz , Claro Sushila Vieira
Published: December 2023

O recente aumento da derrubada de monumentos em várias partes do mundo tem reacendido debates sobre memória, identidade e o papel dos símbolos na sociedade. Esta reflexão se debruça sobre a intersecção entre iconoclastia, patrimônio cultural e representação, explorando suas nuances e implicações através de diferentes contextos históricos, sociais e geográficos. O estudo se baseia em uma ampla gama de literaturas, desde teóricos contemporâneos como Silvio Almeida e sua exploração do racismo estrutural, até trabalhos clássicos de Walter Benjamin e seus pensamentos sobre arte e política. O foco é particularmente acentuado no Brasil, onde episódios envolvendo o monumento de Borba Gato e ações similares espelham um confronto entre narrativas estabelecidas e demandas emergentes por reconhecimento e justiça. A metodologia adotada combina uma análise interdisciplinar de fontes primárias e secundárias, bem como uma consideração das manifestações contemporâneas de iconoclastia em redes sociais e meios de comunicação. As descobertas revelam uma complexa tapeçaria de significados e motivações por trás desses atos, que vão desde rejeições de legados coloniais até desafios às narrativas hegemônicas. Em conclusão, a derrubada de monumentos não é apenas um ato de destruição, mas também de recriação e redefinição do espaço público e da memória coletiva
Histórias restritas: o Sistema Integrado de Conhecimento e Gestão e a atribuição de valor no Inventário do Patrimônio de São Leopoldo (RS)
Authors: Carazzo Carline Luana , Pozzo Renata Rogowski
Published: December 2023

A pesquisa é inserida no centro da contradição entre o reconhecimento da importância do patrimônio e sua preservação e o questionamento sobre sua representatividade. A problematização sobre o que preservar, por que e de que maneira é abordada a partir do estudo de caso da cidade de São Leopoldo (RS), que no ano de 2016 elaborou seu Inventário do Patrimônio Histórico, Artístico e Cultural através da metodologia do Sistema Integrado de Conhecimento e Gestão do IPHAN. Em uma cidade cujos processos de atribuição de valor por meio do instrumento do tombamento conduziram para a afirmação de uma história restrita, aquela da imigração alemã, questiona-se se o instrumento do Inventário e a metodologia utilizada foram capazes de expandir a ideia de patrimônio no sentido de outras narrativas
Social planning and European contact areas: political geography in place
Authors: Bufon Milan
Published: December 2023

The article deals with the issue of planning social and spatial integration in the so-called contact areas, where different political and cultural units meet and interlace. The study of such areas copes both with the persistent and immanent forms of territoriality in human beings and increasing quests for functional social, economic and spatial (re)integration. Both trends lead towards a multi-level and often contradictory relationship between different territories and borders, which emerge from the simultaneously developing processes of social and spatial convergence and divergence. For this reason, both theory and practice of political geography are permanently challenged by shifting policies of integration and/or separation, and social and spatial planning in European multicultural and border regions appears to be a difficult, almost Sisyphean task. Yet, it is central to the creation of more stable opportunities for both coexistence and development. This article provides a review of author’s considerations of political geographical transformations and issues related to European contact areas in the pre-modern, modern and post-modern period, with special emphasis on minorities and cross-border cooperation, suggesting to promote an integrative and multilevel approach that could somehow replace the classic "national" policies in relation to border areas development and minority protection.
Increasing the efficiency of drying cellulose by ultrasonic influence
Authors: Khmelev Vladimir N. , Shalunov Andrey V. , Terentiev Sergey A. , Nesterov Viktor A.
Published: December 2023

Relevance. Significant part of renewable and fossil energy resources is spent to generate heat and electricity needed to implement drying. At the same time, cellulose drying, due to the large-tonnage production, is one of the significant consumers of energy resources. One of the ways to reduce energy costs of drying is ultrasonic vibrations impact. There are practically no studies on ultrasonic exposure during cellulose drying. Therefore, it is necessary to consider possible options for non-contact ultrasonic treatment during convective drying of wood cellulose. Main aim. To identify the most rational options for placing the material to be dried, taking into account the direction of exposure to ultrasonic vibrations and the flow of warm air relative to the layers of the material to be dried at different temperatures. Objects. Non-contact ultrasonic action on wood cellulose. Methods. Mathematical modeling based on the finite element method was used to determine the distribution of oscillation amplitudes of a disk radiator. In the experimental part of the research, a material moisture content was determined by the weight method using verified technical means. Results. When ultrasonic vibrations have parallel direction relative to cellulose thin layers, a 2.5-fold reduction in drying time was shown at a sound pressure level of 162 ±3 dB and a drying agent temperature of 60 °C. The authors have found that temperature decrease of a drying agent makes it possible to increase the relative efficiency of ultrasonic treatment. An assessment of energy efficiency showed that the use of ultrasonic exposure leads to a 2.3-fold decrease in the energy spent on drying compared to only convective drying, all other things being equal. The conducted studies confirmed the effectiveness of the ultrasonic drying method for industrial use and made it possible to recommend options for the most rational placement of the material to be dried when designing the structures of drying chambers.
Firm Productivity and Matching Frictions in th Labor Markets: Is This an Unending Curse to Employers?
Authors: Ndolo David Katuta , Senelwa Victor Kidake
Published: December 2023

The productivity behavior of firms is significantly influenced by labor market frictions in both emerging and established economies. Kenya persistently advocates for enhanced strategies to bolster productivity. The precise impact of labor market friction remains ambiguous. This paper focuses on assessing the influence of qualification and skills mismatch on firm productivity within the context of Kenya. The study utilized secondary crosssectional data obtained from the World Bank database, specifically from the 2016-2017 Skills Toward Employment Productivity (STEP) Household Survey conducted in Kenya. The full specification of the maximum likelihood model under the endogenous switching regression (ESR) was estimated. The results of the study indicate that insufficient education and a mismatch between skills and job requirements have a significantly negative impact on firm productivity. The impact of excessive education on firm production was found to be minimal. The essential finding regarding the marginal treatment effect, which holds significant implications for policymaking, indicates a strong positive association between over-education and firm productivity. A negative association is observed between education and skills mismatch and firm productivity. The policy implications underscore the necessity of aligning graduates with employment opportunities that correspond to their educational background and level of expertise.
Social Networking and Misinformation Challenges: Moroccan Students in Tertirary Education as a Case Study
Authors: El Kandoussi Mohamed
Published: December 2023

This paper focuses on examining how Moroccan university students approach the various social networking sites, including their self-perceived capacities to critically analyze and evaluate digital content in general and online news and information more specifically. The paper poses several research questions that all aim to investigate the issue under examination. This empirical endeavor used the survey as a research instrument to gather data, and presented a number of conclusions and recommendations for the Moroccan policy makers, stakeholders, and all concerned parties. The study further reported that most respondents advance by critically evaluating social media content and largely deploying various efficient verification measures and techniques. In the same vein, the majority of respondents highly rated their digital media perceived self-efficacy. Almost two thirds of the participants postulate that higher educational institutions should incorporate digital literacy skills in their curricula and syllabi.
Learning Engagement of Adult Females in Remote Physical Fitness Program Through Mobile App Intervention
Authors: Ganguly Ranita , Rathee N. K. , Rathee Vikramjit S.
Published: December 2023

The use of digital devices such as laptops, personal digital assistants, and mobile phones as learning tools has gained prominence in formal education, generating increased research interest in potential growth areas. According to Jeong and So (2020), there seems to be inadequate empirical evidence from extensive research to support its learning effectiveness in the fitness domain, especially among women who have been underrepresented in economically stressed areas. One of the several explanations for this disparity is the failure to consider women’s intersecting cultural identities or potential for social impact. This paper focuses on addressing this issue by conducting a qualitative study. It involves a focus group comprising 15 adult females aged 24 and above. The primary objective is to assess how virtual learning influences the learning perception of adult female learners at a yoga and fitness studio. Interactive self-paced mobile-assisted learning modules were facilitated through the use of mobile phones. An open-ended questionnaire was designed using online resources for primary data collection. The findings were derived by cross-referencing data collected from recordings, interviews, and questionnaires. The study revealed that participating in online fitness classes could enhance women's involvement in fitness-related activities.
Does Investment Climate Matter for Firm Performance? Evidence from Kenyan Manufacturing Firms
Authors: Amutabi Cyprian
Published: December 2023

The productivity of Kenyan manufacturing firms is way lower than that of many developed economies and has generally exhibited a consistent decline over the last decade. While this productivity trend has largely been attributed to the presence of a high distortionary institutional and business regulatory environment, existing studies on the role of the investment climate in determining firm performance are ostensibly scanty. This study, thus, employed the World Bank panel enterprise data for the period 2007-2013- 2018 in assessing whether investment climate mattered for firm performance in Kenyan manufacturing firms. More particularly, the study sought to establish the role of the court system and property rights ownership in determining firm performance; a feat that remains unexplored in the Kenyan context. The random effects model was estimated while controlling for the year, industry, and firm-specific control variables. The findings revealed that while court inefficiencies significantly impeded labor productivity, property rights ownership significantly increased productivity. Further, human capital positively determines labor productivity. Concerning governance and institutional factors, ISO-certified firms were found to be significantly more productive. Conversely, business licenses and permits constrain firm productivity. Therefore, to ensure unrelenting firm productivity, speedy and just delivery of court rulings on firm-related matters is critical. Secondly, the acquisition of patents relating to product or process innovation by firms enhances product competitiveness. Thirdly, manufacturing firms should invest more in human capital. Finally, the imposition of favorable business licenses and permits by the governments globally coupled with the ISO Certification requirement by firms is integral in optimizing labor productivity.
Cognitions Liées à l’Insuffisance Rénale Chronique et Bienêtre Psychologique chez des Patients du Centre d’Hémodialyse de Cocody/Abidjan
Authors: Adjuman N’Guessan Alain , Tra Bi Tra Isidore , N’Dri Yao Eugène
Published: December 2023

La présente étude vise à vérifier la relation entre les  cognition liées à la maladie et le bien-être psychologique chez des hémodialysés. L’échantillon est composé de 118 individus dont 82 hommes et 36 femmes. L’âge moyen est de 45 ans et 7 mois et l’âge moyen de dialyse est de 5 ans et 6 mois. Les participants ont rempli deux questionnaires d’auto-évaluation adaptés. Ainsi, l’échelle de la maladie chronique d’Evers et al. (2001) et l’échelle brève du bien-être de Cottraux (2009), qui ont aidé à mesurer le bien-être psychologique. Les découvertes les plus cohérentes sont qu’une impuissance élevée est significativement associé à un bien-être psychologique faible. L’acceptation et les avantages perçus sont liés de manière significative à un bien-être psychologique élevé. Ces résultats confirment notre hypothèse émise et soutiennent ceux des études antérieures. Ils peuvent être mis à contribution dans les interventions psychologiques personnalisées pour non seulement réduire la dépression et l’anxiété engendrées par la dialyse chez certains patients, mais aussi pour maintenir et augmenter le bien-être psychologique des hémodialysés.

 

The present study aims to determine which illness-related cognitions are associated with psychological well-being in hemodialysis patients. The sample is composed of 118 individuals including 82 men (69.5%) and 36 women (30.5%). The average age is 45 years and 7 months and the average age for dialysis is 5 years and 6 months. Participants completed two adapted self-assessment questionnaires. Thus, the chronic illness scale of Evers et al. (2001) and the Cottraux Brief Well-being Scale (2009) helped measure psychological well-being. The most consistent findings are that high helplessness is significantly associated with low psychological well-being. Acceptance and perceived benefits are significantly related to high psychological well-being. These results confirm our hypothesis and support those of previous studies. These results may enable personalized psychological interventions to not only reduce depression and anxiety caused by dialysis in certain patients, but also to maintain and increase the psychological well-being of hemodialysis patients.
Istirātījiyyātu al-Nafādi Ilá al-Muʻjami al-Żihnī lada Talāmīżi al-Sanati al-Śāliśati min al-Taʻlīmi al-Śānawī al-Iʻdādiyyi [Mental Lexicon Access Strategies for Students of the Third Year of Preparatory Secondary Education]
Authors: Ghoura Hamza , Bouanani Mostafa
Published: December 2023

Lexical units are organized within the mental lexicon, and the processes of constructing, processing, and accessing them are organized according to extremely complex mental pathways. This requires language speakers to activate them and use them quickly and effectively in their linguistic achievement. The more the speaker's access to his mental lexicon is sound, the more he can communicate successfully in different linguistic contexts. This research paper attempts to contribute to deriving some appropriate strategies for accessing the mental lexicon according to the parametric peculiarities of the Arabic language by linking these strategies to four basic criteria (the criterion of phonetic similarity, the criterion of spelling form, the criterion of semantic similarity, the criterion of grammatical predicate). This study was based on field research that targeted a sample of 40 students belonging to the third year of preparatory secondary education within a Moroccan public educational institution. The study used tests related to linguistic information that allows access to lexical units within the mental lexicon, aiming to analyze and measure them in the student's linguistic achievement. The results revealed that there is a strong influence of standards of access to the mental lexicon on the performance of learners in written expression and that there is a large gap between what is stipulated in educational documents and what students produce in their construction writings based on their level in this academic level.
Authenticity in Language Learning: A Study of Language Materials in Public High Schools
Authors: Domogen Jevera Cawilan
Published: December 2023

Instructional materials are paramount in effecting language instruction. However, there are contextual issues related to the use and selection of these materials. This study focused on authentic language instructional materials in public secondary schools in the Philippines. This study employed a mixed-methods research approach. This study concludes that internet-based authentic language instructional materials are inadequate in language instruction, showing limitations on the capacity of the school and the language teachers to provide adequate internet-based materials; there are concerns about using authentic language instructional materials that hinder learners' authentic response and comprehension to authentic language instructional materials, and there were measures to overcome the concerns which could develop authentic language instructional materials into the ideal learning materials. It is recommended that language teachers select resources according to the learners' unique requirements, proficiency levels, cultural contexts, and educational contexts. The participation of learners in the selection process and activity design is crucial to ensure the materials are engaging and culturally pertinent. To effectively address the challenges associated with using these resources, a collaborative approach is recommended, involving teachers, students, and other stakeholders in implementing the suggested solutions.
Manifesting Grammatical Meanings and Functions of Particle “Lah” in Pégon Script (Javanese Translation) of Syiʻir Qiyāmah
Authors: Hendrokumoro  , Ma'shumah Nadia Khumairo , Irakusuma Ratna Nur Fatimah
Published: December 2023

Linguistics researchers and academics frequently overlook the presence of particles in sentence constructions. Nonetheless, language is never presented in a vacuum. Any-faceted phenomenon can be ‘means’ in many different ways and can be explored from many different points of view. This study discussed the grammatical meanings and functions of the particle lah in Syiʻīr or Singir. Qualitative data collected in this study were obtained from Syiʻīr Qiyāmah’s Pégon script, consisting of recto (introduction) and chapters from 16 pages with the amount of 16 verses. Meanwhile, all the data were analyzed by combining philology and linguistics studies to comprehend and interpret language in written historical sources. The findings of this study indicate that the grammatical meanings of this particle lah were highly contested and varied due to the particle lah's different position in Javanese clause/ sentence construction. Given that the particle lah has no lexical meaning of its own, its meaning is inextricably linked to the context of the sentence in which it appears. Through meticulous investigation, this study discovered four grammatical meanings of particle lah in Syiʻīr Qiyāmah’s Pégon script: (1) as the interjectors, (2) as taukid, (3) as conjunctures, and (4) as separators; as well as three functions of particle lah in Syiʻīr Qiyāmah’s Pégon script: (1) to highlight the information that was considered important; (2) to connect one information with another; and (3) to emphasize the importance of elements in the information unit.
Etnia, creencia y estatus
Authors: Espinosa Mariana
Published: December 2023

Durante las primeras décadas del siglo XX un misionero inglés promovió la creación de asambleas evangélicas en Santiago del Estero, Noroeste argentino. Aunque las bases sociales de las mismas fueron variadas, el imaginario colectivo destaca que fue la incorporación de inmigrantes árabes aquello que afianzó el proyecto misionero en la provincia. El artículo aborda este imaginario a partir de un recorrido exhaustivo por los relatos de creyentes descendientes de aquellas primeras familias sirias y criollas que adoptaron la propuesta evangélica en Santiago del Estero. Nuestra interpretación indica que en el proceso de reelaboración identitaria del colectivo sirio y libanés en la provincia norteña, en un país donde aún era nítido el discurso de una nación modelada por un patrón blanco, europeo y católico, aparecen los elementos para una comprensión del cambio socio-religioso de dichos inmigrantes y de la configuración de una identidad evangélica cuyo signo árabe resultó conspicuo.
O programa de desenvolvimento educacional do Paraná

Published: December 2023

No século XXI, em 2003, o Estado do Paraná iniciou uma política de formação continuada que distinguia de outras experiências oferecidas aos docentes do Quadro Próprio do Magistério. Era o Programa de Desenvolvimento Educacional (PDE), pensado e constituído no governo de Roberto Requião de Mello e Silva, cuja característica fundamental era o diálogo entre Universidade e Rede Pública de Educação Básica, com finalidade de melhoria da educação e valorização profissional. Nos governos de Carlos Alberto Richa as vagas ofertadas foram diminuídas e o PDE-PR sofreu impactos estruturais e orçamentários. Quase extinto em 2015, retomado em 2018 para seleção de nova turma PDE – 2019, limitando-se a um grupo restrito de docentes com títulos de mestrado ou doutorado. A discussão apresentada apoia-se em pesquisa documental e bibliográfica, fundamentada em Gatti, Barretto e André (2011), Martins (2010) e Saviani (2011, 2013). Evidenciam-se as principais características do PDE-PR, nas gestões de Requião e Beto Richa, bem como sua importância para melhoria das práxis docentes, a valorização dos profissionais da educação em um contexto marcado por contradições dos sistemas político, econômico, social e cultural. O texto está organizado em três momentos: no primeiro tematiza-se o conceito de política pública, as características do PDE-PR para formação docente; no segundo, apresenta-se a idealização e implementação do programa no governo de Roberto Requião até o governo de Carlos Alberto Richa e encerra a trajetória desse estudo com o governo de Cida Borghetti; por fim apontam-se as contribuições do Programa para a formação continuada e suas limitações.
HER2-low metastatic breast cancer: molecular insights and therapeutic strategies

Published: December 2023

The identification of HER2-low metastatic breast cancer as a novel subgroup with therapeutic implications underscores the intricacies in breast cancer classification. This subset, comprising about 60% of breast cancer cases, presents a challenge due to its heterogeneous nature, characterized by varying HER2 protein expression levels. This heterogeneity complicates diagnosis and treatment decisions. The advent of trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd), a second-generation antibody-drug conjugate (ADC), instills renewed hope for HER2-low breast cancer patients, having demonstrated effectiveness in clinical trials. The article also explores the evolution of HER2 testing guidelines, notably the 2023 ASCO/CAP guidelines that acknowledge the potential benefits of HER2-targeted therapies for this subgroup. In summary, this article emphasizes the significance of collaborative efforts between Pathologists and Oncologists in the era of precision medicine. It also highlights the potential for innovative, tailored therapies for HER2-low breast cancer, promising enhanced treatment outcomes and a broader range of therapeutic options.
jour, l'AOD ? Prospective sur l'Appellation d'Origine viticole Durable, fusion de l'origine et de l'environnement.

L’évolution des enjeux qualitatifs du vin s’exprime historiquement par le passage de la qualité de vin (qu’est-ce qu’un vin ?) à la qualité du vin (qu’est-ce qu’un bon vin ?) Sans doute la prochaine question pourrait-elle être : qu’est-ce qu’un bon vin durable ? Pour contribuer à la réflexion sur ce thème, il peut être intéressant de procéder à un exercice de prospective fiction, que nous avons identifiée dans l’hypothèse de l’AOD, l’Appellation d’Origine Durable, scénario que nous développerons à la lumière des évolutions de la filière viticole et de la proposition de règlement relatif aux indications géographiques, et que nous soumettons à l’appréciation des lecteurs de la revue. Après avoir été simple, contrôlée puis protégée, la prochaine étape, pour l’appellation, pourrait consister à afficher sa durabilité. Nouvelle norme et nouveau signe, l’AOD exprimerait alors la fusion de la qualité de l’origine et de la durabilité.
Moral Genealogy of Michel Foucault in the Ad Hominem Argument in the Terminology of 'Cicak' and 'Buaya'

The feud that occurred between government agencies, in this case involving the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK), and government agencies, in this case the National Police, became an ongoing problem that could be considered as a whole. The terminology regarding the KPK and Polri cases, which are synonymous with the term lizard and crocodile, is a separate understanding that needs attention. Public perception of the case varies. There is support for the KPK, but there are also those who justify the treatment of the Police themselves in looking at this case. Foucault's moral genealogy uses ad hominem arguments as the basis for forming his genealogy, used to expose the understanding of lizards and crocodiles. An understanding that society takes for granted as truth and morality. In the genealogy, Foucault sees that in the context of the lizard and the crocodile, there is a kind of power that is to be played and used for a certain interest. There is a purpose to be sought from such a political situation and condition. So, looking at the context of lizards and crocodiles in ad hominem studies is one of the studies of message communication. Political communication that wants to open up new understandings of the logic of human thinking as a whole.

An accurate analysis of the communication network will facilitate the process of disseminating information about feed and medicines. This study aims to analyze the roles, identify clicks, and analyze the structure of the communication network for feed and medicines formed among conservationists of karapan cattle in Sampang Regency. This study uses a quantitative method with descriptive analysis. The sampling method uses the snowball sampling method. The respondents of this study were 26 conservationists of Karapan cattle in Sampang Regency. The data analysis method used in this research is sociometric analysis. The results of the study show that: (1) the feed and medicine communication network in Sampang Regency has the roles of opinion leaders, bridges, and neglectees; (2) the clicks generated in the feed communication network are 20 clicks, while the clicks contained in the drug communication network are 4 clicks; (3) the pattern of the feed communication network is all channels and wheels while the pattern of the drug communication network is wheels. The density value in the feed communication network is 0.128 which is higher than the drug communication network which is 0.057. The diameter formed in the feed communication network is 6 while in the drug communication network it is 5, which means that the farthest distance a conservationist can contact other conservationists in the feed communication network is 6 steps while in the drug communication network it is 5 steps. The degree of connectedness in the feed communication network was 89.4%, lower than the drug communication network of 24.9%, indicating that the dissemination of feed information was better than the dissemination of information about medicines.
