Ausgehend von grundlegenden Lesbarkeitsmerkmalen wie Abgrenzbarkeit, Gliederbarkeit, Verknüpfbarkeit, Intertextualität, thematische Zusammengehörigkeit und pragmatische Nützlichkeit wird die Musterhaftigkeit der Karte bestimmt. Dabei zeigt sich, dass es sich um eine Lesbarkeit des Ferngrusses handelt, der durch die Thematisierung des Urlaubsortes angereichert werden kann. Hier kommt es zu einer stark standardisierten Abarbeitung immer wieder ähnlicher Themen, zu denen bevorzugt das Wetter, die Unterbringung und das Essen sowie die Ferienaktivitäten zählen. Ergänzt wird die Lesbarkeit der Welt als Urlaubsort durch ihre Betrachtbarkeit, mit vielen für die Ansichtskarte konstitutiven Querverbindungen.
Feriengrüße positionierungstheoretisch
Authors: Merten Marie-Luis
Published: January 2023

Die Autorin widmet sich Postkarten aus einer positionierungstheoretischen Perspektive (Du Bois 2007; Jaffe 2009). Das Hauptaugenmerk liegt dabei auf sprachlichen Positionierungsressourcen, die beim Verfassen von Ansichtskartengrüßen wiederkehrend verwendet werden. Empirische Grundlage ist das an der Universität Zürich angesiedelte Postkartenkorpus [anko], das rund 12.200 transkribierte und annotierte Postkarten von 1900 bis in die 2010er Jahre umfasst (https://www.ds.uzh.ch/de/projekte/ansichtskartenprojekt/korpus.html). Für die Inszenierung als Reisende(r) sind insbesondere zwei Cluster verwandter Form-Funktions-Paare instruktiv: (1) Zum einen ist dies das [Grüße aus/von X]-Muster als komplexe und polyfunktionale Grußtechnik. Sie dient nicht nur der Lokalisierung, sondern in vielen Fällen auch der affektiven Positionierung des Schreibenden sowie zugleich der Bewertung des Urlaubsortes bzw. des Reiseerlebnisses. Zudem ist dieses Muster mit Blick auf die Beziehungspflege funktionalisiert. (2) Zum anderen zählt hierzu das [nach/nachdem X (nun/jetzt/heute/hier) Y]-Muster, das die der (Re-)Konstruktion des Reiseerlebnisses in seiner zeitlich-gerichtet-räumlichen Dynamik fokussiert und den/die Reisende(n) als Entdecker in/von Zeit und Raum entwirft.
Using Google Docs to Administer Synchronous Collaborative Assessments
Authors: Olivey Harold
Published: January 2023

Collaborative learning increases student achievement of learning outcomes in a wide range of disciplines, including the natural sciences, and is a hallmark of authentic assessment. To help students collaborate more effectively, I have used Google Docs, a free, online word-processing program accessible using almost any internet-connected device. Assessments that include real-world application problems are composed in Google Docs and shared with students via links. Google Docs has proven to be more efficient than pencil-and-paper assessment, encourages greater collaboration within student groups than is possible with tools embedded in a learning management system, and provides opportunities to give students just-in-time instruction and examine student metacognition, all of which are foundational for authentic assessment. Post-assessment grading is rapid, and corrected documents with instructor feedback can be easily shared with students. Students have adapted readily to the platform and have learned on their own how to use the software beyond my original conception. I describe how I have used Google Docs successfully in a molecular biology course, offer considerations for grading and distributing corrections, and report on students’ perceptions of the assessments themselves.
Implicaciones históricas y sociales de las protestas indígenas en el Ecuador
Authors: Garzón Vera Blas Orlando , Bravo Kléver Antonio
Published: January 2023

Este trabajo analiza las implicaciones socio históricas del movimiento indígena de Ecuador. Es un artículo de reflexión que se centra en los siguientes apartados. En primer lugar, se analiza el levantamiento del año de 1990, sus luchas, aspiraciones e implicaciones históricas por alcanzar el poder y la participación política. Esta lucha que, inicialmente fue por la defensa de la tierra y respeto a su cultura, dio al movimiento el protagonismo de convertirse en uno de los actores claves reivindicativos de las necesidades de la sociedad ecuatoriana. En un segundo apartado, se examinará, la llegada coyuntural al poder en las sublevaciones del año 2000. Finalmente, estudiaremos la presencia del movimiento en los disturbios de octubre del año 2019, que, junto a muchos otros movimientos sociales, estudiantiles, gremios del transporte, campesinos y ciudadanía, lucharon por la derogatoria frente a la subida de los combustibles.
Las que sobran: un análisis de la diversidad de las mujeres habitantes de la calle en cinco ciudades colombianas
Authors: Rodríguez Santana Patricia
Published: January 2023

Este artículo profundiza en el conocimiento de las mujeres habitantes de la calle de las cinco ciudades más densas del país, teniendo como telón de fondo las relaciones patriarcales de desigualdad que permean los diferentes momentos de la habitanza de la calle empezando por la decisión de salir a vivir en esta. Con la información disponible de los censos de habitantes de la calle de 2017 y 2019 realizados por el DANE en Bogotá, Medellín, Cali, Barranquilla y Bucaramanga, indaga por las diversas formas femeninas de habitar la calle y las condiciones en que ésta se lleva a cabo. Apunta básicamente a eliminar la masculinización de la habitanza de la calle, visibilizando la presencia de mujeres diversas en ciclos de vida y con vivencias expulsoras antes y de hábitos de subsistencia y manutención durante su permanencia en la calle.
La influencia de la Unión Europea a través del Semestre Europeo en la configuración del modelo de estado y de la universidad en el contexto español
Authors: Carrasco-González Alexandra
Published: January 2023

Este trabajo analiza la influencia que ejerce la Unión Europea (UE) como organismo supranacional, en la reconfiguración de las políticas estatales, incluidas las políticas de educación superior, centrándonos en el contexto español.  En concreto, se estudia el Semestre Europeo, instrumento que utiliza la UE para dictaminar orientaciones a los Estados miembros tras la crisis del euro de 2011, en políticas económicas, de empleo y de competitividad, así como su influencia en las reformas de educación superior y en la adopción de postulados neoliberales. El método utilizado se centra en el examen de las políticas aprobadas en el marco del Semestre Europeo dentro del contexto español, desde 2011 hasta 2021. Como principales resultados resaltamos, en España tras la crisis del euro de 2011, bajo el gobierno del Partido Popular y la puesta en marcha del Semestre Europeo, se aprobaron políticas que suponían un acercamiento del Estado a posturas minimalistas y postulados neoliberales. Asimismo, en el campo de la educación superior, el Semestre Europeo, de un modo indirecto, ha significado un mecanismo mediante el cual la UE influye en el diseño de las políticas de educación superior, orientándolas a la creación de universidades que permitan a los Estados nacionales ganar una mayor competitividad en la economía del conocimiento.
Economic Development and Social Dynamics in the Russian Far East: Scenario Forecast
Authors:   Economic Research Institute FEB RAS, Minakir Pavel , Isaev Artem ,   Economic Research Institute FEB RAS, Naiden Svetlana ,   Economic Research Institute FEB RAS
Published: January 2023

The article presents the results of the implementation of national strategic goals within the framework of official concepts and programs for the development of the Russian Far East. Periodization has been carried out and the characteristic features of structural-economic and socio-humanitarian transformations in the economy of the macroregion, carried out for 100 years: from 1922 to the present, have been allocated. The target orientation and criteria for selecting investment projects depending on the stage of paradigm shift in the development of the Far East have been substantiated. It is shown that each historical period and the corresponding type of transformations were characterized by its own ratio between the criteria of social utility, economic and commercial efficiency. It has been determined that the current stage of modernization is distinguished by the socio-humanitarian orientation of state (budgetary) investments, in contrast to the structural and economic transformations carried out mainly at the expense of the corporate sector of the economy. Scenarios of potential states in the field of socio-humanitarian and structural-economic modernization depending on the possibilities of the state budget and the isolation of the national economy have been formed. A forecast assessment of the trajectories of investments in fixed assets in the Far Eastern Federal District until 2030 with inertial and accelerated development scenarios is presented. On the basis of the investment forecast, an assessment of the value of the welfare of the population is carried out and it is substantiated that in the case of the implementation of the accelerated scenario of investment dynamics, the potential increase in welfare will be 15.4%, and in the inertial scenario, «losses» of 12.7% are guaranteed
Demographic Dynamics of the Russian Far East in the Context of the Implementation of National Priorities: Sustainable Trends and Growth Constraints
Authors:   Economic Research Institute FEB RAS, Belousova Anna , Gritsko Maria ,   Economic Research Institute FEB RAS
Published: January 2023

The article is devoted to the analysis of the demographic dynamics of the Russian Far East in the context of its northern and southern zones during the implementation of an active regional policy on the accelerated socio-economic development of the macroregion by the federal authorities. A comparative analysis of the main demographic indicators for the period 2014–2021 showed that with general unfavorable trends in the natural dynamics of the population associated with the peculiarities of the age structure of the female reproductive contingent and the consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic, the northern zone, compared to the south, retains higher parameters of demographic development. Using the distributed lag model, estimates of the relationship between changes in economic dynamics and the average annual population of the subjects of the Russian Federation of the selected zones of the Far East were obtained. Despite the positive sign of coefficients in the corresponding dependencies, the results of quantitative analysis revealed the absence of generation of significant incentives to increase the population of both zones by economic policy measures aimed at regional growth. Thus, on the example of the southern zone of the Far Eastern Federal District, it is shown that in order to achieve the population targets established by the Concept of the Demographic Policy of the Far East for the period up to 2025, a multiple increase in the gross regional product of the subjects of the Russian Federation is required. For example, in 2022 relative to the previous year, the corresponding increase should be from 2.7 (Primorsky Territory) to 4.8 times (Amur Region). The necessity of implementing additional measures of state policy, not related to achieving accelerated growth of the economy of the macroregion, to ensure positive population growth, has been proved
Quantitative Assessment of Integration Trends in Russian Regions

Published: January 2023

This paper assesses the closeness of interregional economic integration in the Russian Federation for the period of 2006–2021. To obtain estimates, regional integration indices were calculated for each pair of 80 subjects of the federation under consideration for each year of the studied time interval. The indices are based on the relative growth rates of prices for individual commodity groups for a given pair of regions. Binary matrices are constructed on the basis of regional integration indices. It is shown that during the considered period there was an increase in interregional economic integration in Russia. Comparison of the matrices of interregional interactions for 2006–2013 and 2014–2021 showed a significant increase in the closeness of interregional ties. It is revealed that the regions of the North Caucasian and Far Eastern Federal Districts are most poorly integrated both within the corresponding districts and with the rest of the Russian regions. For the Central, Southern, Volga and Siberian federal districts, interregional integration ties within the districts themselves are closer than ties with the rest of the districts. It has been determined that the closeness of ties between federal districts weakens as the geographical distances between them increase. Thus, geographically contiguous federal districts tend to interact more closely than geographically distant districts
Financial Infrastructure for the Development of the Russian Far East: An Effective Response to the 2022 Crisis
Authors:   Economic Research Institute FEB RAS, Krivelevich Maksim
Published: January 2023

For many years, the scientific community has been discussing the prospects for creating an international financial center in the Russian Far East. Intensive socio-economic development of the macroregion was planned, as export-oriented and based on the outstripping growth of foreign investment. Special legal regimes for doing business should have significantly increased the investment attractiveness of the Russian Far East for investors from the Asia-Pacific region. Russia’s financial infrastructure at the macrolevel was ready to process a much larger volume of foreign investment than entered the Russian economy. The developed exchange market of stocks, bonds, foreign exchange, commodities, and derivatives was to take an active part in the transformation of portfolio investments into direct investments. Banks, subsidiaries of Japanese, South Korean and Chinese financial institutions, were developed in the Russian Far East. Business practices and corporate procedures aimed at aligning the interests of foreign investors and Russian corporations were improved. However, the political crisis of 2022, associated with the introduction of international sanctions against the Russian financial infrastructure, crossed out plans to create such a center. A fundamentally new research task has appeared – to justify the creation of a regional financial center that would ensure the advanced socio-economic development of the Russian Far East with the entire range of financial infrastructure services in the absence of systemic interaction with foreign financial organizations. This task involves understanding what mechanisms should be created and on what principles this center should function, which financial instruments and corporate mechanisms from the existing ones can be used at the stage of its launch

Desde el contexto histórico y el análisis de dónde y cómo surge el consumo de cigarrillo se determina que la amplia aceptación del consumo desde la época de la Colonia (Rubio & Rubio, 2006) ha provocado que más del 30 % de la población mundial fume tabaco (Organización Mundial de la Salud [OMS], 2019), a tal punto que la industria del tabaco es una de las más estables por su amplio mercado receptor en el mundo; a pesar de los esfuerzos de la OMS y de los países aliados durante las últimas décadas dirigidos a frenar el consumo y la divulgación de propaganda en favor del uso de tabaco (OMS, 2017; 2018), probablemente porque el acceso cada vez más amplio a nuevas tecnologías a través de las que se promueve, sin mayor control, el consumo de tabaco y otras sustancias (Instituto Nacional de Cáncer, 2017).
Needs-based assessment of twice-exceptional gifted students: The S&W-Heuristic
Authors: Burger-Veltmeijer Agnes , Minnaert Alexander
Published: January 2023

Misdiagnoses and missed diagnoses of gifted students with co-occurring learning-, developmental and behavioural disorders are often mentioned in literature and practice. Consequently, these Twice-Exceptional (2E) students often fall between two stools regarding appropriate psycho-educational interventions. This article offers a research and practice informed assessment procedure, namely the Strengths and Weaknesses Heuristic (S&W-Heuristic), that can help to tackle such problems in case giftedness or any 2E is suspected. This S&W-Heuristic was developed via the method of design research. Initially the S&W-Heuristic was developed to assess students with (suspicion of) the co-occurrence of intellectual giftedness (IG) and autism in a needs-based way, though, subsequently to assess (potential) 2E-students in general. The systematicity of the S&W-Heuristic may help psychologists and special remedial educationalists to reveal hitherto camouflaged strengths or weaknesses in underachieving smart students and to understand their ambivalent psycho-educational needs. Being the product of design research, this article also offers a prelude to new theoretical perspectives regarding the concepts IG and 2E. By shifting from a ‘classification-based’ to a dynamic ‘dimensional-based’ definition of 2E, camouflaged talent will be recognised more effectively and will get more opportunity to flourish. Accordingly, it is proposed to consider IG and 2E as constructs on a continuum.
Zróżnicowanie poziomu i charakteru bezrobocia w powiatach województwa wielkopolskiego
Authors: Kwiatkowski Eugeniusz , Szymańska Agata
Published: January 2023

Celem badania jest ukazanie zróżnicowania powiatowych rynków pracy województwa wielkopolskiego ze względu na wysokość stóp bezrobocia rejestrowanego i charakter bezrobocia, a także ustalenie najważniejszych czynników wpływających na te wielkości. Podstawą badania są dane roczne z lat 2010–2021 pochodzące z Banku Danych Lokalnych GUS oraz sprawozdań powiatowych urzędów pracy (formularzy MRPiPS-01). Wyniki pozwalają stwierdzić, że choć województwo wielkopolskie charakteryzuje jedna z najniższych stóp bezrobocia w kraju, to jednak wewnętrznie jest ono dość zróżnicowane. Relatywnie najtrudniejsza sytuacja ze względu na stopę i charakter bezrobocia dotyczy powiatu konińskiego, natomiast najkorzystniejsza występuje w powiatach poznańskim, miasta Poznania, nowotomyskim i wolsztyńskim.
Ocena wpływu krajobrazów wiejskich na konkurencyjność regionów metodą Bayesian Belief Network – przypadek Wielkopolski w Polsce

Published: January 2023

W opracowaniu przedstawiono wyniki badań dotyczące pomiaru wpływu krajobrazuwiejskiego, jego elementów i struktury na konkurencyjność regionu rozumianą jako zdolność do generowania relatywnie wysokich dochodów z działalności gospodarczej, przy jednoczesnym zapewnieniu zatrudnienia i dobrobytu społeczeństwa. Powiązania przyczynowe pomiędzy kształtowaniem krajobrazu, korzyściami społeczno-ekonomicznymi i mechanizmami wpływającymi na poziom dochodów zostały opisane i zmierzone na przykładzie regionu rolniczego, który znajduje się na terenie Parku Krajobrazowego im. Gen. Dezyderego Chłapowskiego w Wielkopolsce. W celu scharakteryzowania unikatowej struktury krajobrazu parku, za pomocą GIS, map glebowych i innych materiałów przygotowano szczegółowe mapy wybranego regionu i porównano je z dwoma obszarami rolniczymi o wyraźnie odmiennych cechach krajobrazowych, ale położonymi w sąsiedztwie. Na podstawie przygotowanych map dokonano inwentaryzacji krajobrazu i jego struktury. Stopień koncentracjii zróżnicowania elementów krajobrazu został zmierzony dwoma wskaźnikami – indeksem Shannona (H) i indeksem Herfindahla-Hirschmana (HHI). Następnie w celu określenia potencjalnego wpływukrajobrazu na konkurencyjność regionu opracowano koncepcję oceny zależności metodą Bayesian Belief Network (BBN). Opracowanie struktury BBN pozwoliło na ustalenie siły zależności pomiędzy poszczególnymi elementami krajobrazu, funkcjami pełnionymi przez krajobraz, korzyściami a konkurencyjnością regionu. Wyniki wskazują, że korzyści z krajobrazu dla konkurencyjności regionu w Parku Krajobrazowym im. Gen. Dezyderego Chłapowskiego są wyraźnie związane z rolnictwem chronionym przez pasy zadrzewień. Występowanie zadrzewień liniowych jest ponad dwukrotnie większe na terenie Parku niż w regionach sąsiednich. Krajobraz Parku waloryzowany jest z perspektywy dwóch najważniejszych pełnionych funkcji – produkcyjnej oraz regulacyjnej. Funkcja produkcyjna związanajest z rolniczym charakterem krajobrazu i produkcją żywności. Funkcja ochronno-regulacyjna wynika z występowania pasów zadrzewień śródpolnych, które w znaczący sposób redukują erozję wietrzną,na którą narażone są uprawy w tym regionie Polski. Stwierdzono też, że wszystkie rozważane elementy krajobrazu (pola uprawne, lasy, zadrzewienia śródpolne i przydrożne, zbiorniki wodne) mają pozytywny wpływ na zdolność do generowania dochodów w regionie, zwiększając szanse na osiągnięciewysokiej konkurencyjności, ale z różną siłą oddziaływania.
Granica województwa a powiązania regionalnym transportem kolejowym na przykładzie Wielkopolski
Authors: Smolarski Mateusz
Published: January 2023

W 2000 r. w Polsce rozpoczął się proces regionalizacji kolei. Odpowiedzialność za przewozy wojewódzkie przeniesiono na samorządy wojewódzkie. Przedmiotem badania były powiązania międzywojewódzkie pociągami osobowymi Wielkopolski i 7 województw ościennych (razem 33 trasy). Na 15 z nich prowadzone są przewozy pasażerskie. Liczba połączeń jest zróżnicowana. W planach transportowych 19 linii opisywanych jest w obydwu dokumentach (Wielkopolska i sąsiadujący region). 8 jest pominiętych, a 6 znajduje odniesienie w jednym z planów. Układ komunikacyjny powinien być koordynowany wzajemnie przez sąsiadujące samorządy. Planowane połączenia są różnie traktowane przez województwa. Tworzenie systemu transportowego nie powinno być ograniczane jedynie do zasięgu województwa. Potoki pasażerskie nie zawsze są tożsame z granicą administracyjną regionu. Brak koordynacji międzyregionalnej może wpływać na powstawanie peryferiów wewnętrznych o ograniczonej dostępności transportowej. Trasy, na których aktualnie jest prowadzony mały ruch pociągów osobowych oraz towarowych, powinny być włączone do systemu transportu kolejowego w regionie.

Tailoring photoluminescence of WS2-microcavity coupling devices in broad visible range
Authors: Zhao Le-Yi , Wang Hai , Liu Tian-Yu , Li Fang-Fei , Zhou Qiang , Wang Hai-Yu
Published: January 2023

Most of the previous TMDC-photon coupling devices were mainly based on A exciton due to its high oscillator strength and large exciton binding energy. Less effort has been focused on the modulation of the emission of B exciton and Rydberg states in TMDCs, especially in monolayer WS2. Here, we demonstrate that the photoluminescence (PL) emission of WS2-microcavity coupling devices can be tailored in a broad visible wavelength range (490 nm–720 nm). In contrast to the intrinsic PL emission of monolayer WS2, 25-fold enhanced B exciton emission and significant PL emission from the 2s Rydberg state can be observed. From the transient absorption (TA) measurements, the strongly coupled hybrid states based on B exciton can be remarkably fingerprinted. Furthermore, the strongly enhanced PL emission from the coupled B exciton has been demonstrated due to the strongly increased lower polariton (LP) state population and the internal conversion pathway being blocked in the strong coupling regime. Besides, the remarkable PL emission from the 2s Rydberg state is also revealed and confirmed by the additional ground state bleaching signal in TA spectra. These physical mechanisms about tailoring the PL emission in low dimensional TMDCs can provide significant references for constructing highly efficient optoelectronic devices.
Cross-modal multi-label image classification modeling and recognition based on nonlinear
Authors: Yuan Shuping , Chen Yang , Ye Chengqiong , Bhatt Mohammed Wasim , Saradeshmukh Mhalasakant , Hossain Md Shamim
Published: January 2023

Recently, it has become a popular strategy in multi-label image recognition to predict those labels that co-occur in a picture. Previous work has concentrated on capturing label correlation but has neglected to correctly fuse picture features and label embeddings, which has a substantial influence on the model’s convergence efficiency and restricts future multi-label image recognition accuracy improvement. In order to better classify labeled training samples of corresponding categories in the field of image classification, a cross-modal multi-label image classification modeling and recognition method based on nonlinear is proposed. Multi-label classification models based on deep convolutional neural networks are constructed respectively. The visual classification model uses natural images and simple biomedical images with single labels to achieve heterogeneous transfer learning and homogeneous transfer learning, capturing the general features of the general field and the proprietary features of the biomedical field, while the text classification model uses the description text of simple biomedical images to achieve homogeneous transfer learning. The experimental results show that the multi-label classification model combining the two modes can obtain a hamming loss similar to the best performance of the evaluation task, and the macro average F1 value increases from 0.20 to 0.488, which is about 52.5% higher. The cross-modal multi-label image classification algorithm can better alleviate the problem of overfitting in most classes and has better cross-modal retrieval performance. In addition, the effectiveness and rationality of the two cross-modal mapping techniques are verified.
Displacement recovery and energy dissipation of crimped NiTi SMA fibers during cyclic pullout tests
Authors: Choi Eunsoo , Lee Jong-Han , Choi Jongkwon
Published: January 2023

This study examines the cyclic pullout behavior of two types of cold-drawn NiTi shape memory alloy fibers, such as paddled and crimped fibers. For this, two diameters of 1.0 and 0.7 mm are considered. The experimental cyclic pullout results show that the deep crimped fibers produce a higher maximum pullout resistance than the shallow crimped fibers. When heated, the shallow crimped fiber increases the diameter more significantly than the deep crimped fiber, whereas the fiber wave depth decreases more than the deep crimped fiber. Thus, the maximum pullout resistance increases for the heated shallow crimped fiber and decreases for the heated deep crimped fiber. The displacement recovery ratio (DRR) reduction with an increasing slip is significant for the fiber with a low anchoring bond. The high anchoring bond fiber also introduces a higher average DRR than the fiber with a relatively low anchoring bond. Under heating treatment, the average DRR increases due to the prestressing in the fiber due to the shape memory effect. However, the anchoring bond of the fiber is enough to produce prestressing in the fiber. The anchoring bond of the fiber and the prestressing also influence the energy dissipation (ED). The higher anchoring bond results in a higher ED value, and the prestressing in the fiber contributes more to the increased ED values.

Immunomodulating Treatment of Multiple Sclerosis — the Tasks and Role of a Neurological Nurse
Authors: Smelkowska Anna , Wilkiewicz Maria , Grabowska-Fudala Barbara , Jaracz Krystyna
Published: January 2023

Multiple Sclerosis (SM) is the most common chronic inflammatory autoimmune demyelinating disease affecting the central nervous system. It affects mainly young people, aged 20–40.The onset of the disease usually takes the form or bouts followed by periods of remission. Immunomodulating treatment is a long-term therapy whose aim is to inhibit the occurrence of relapses and, in the long term-delay development of disability in a patient. The effectiveness of this treatment depends, among others, on the degree of preparation of the patient and their following the rules of the therapy. Most of the medication applied is administered by the patient at home as an injection or in the form of oral therapy. Nowadays two drugs are administered in hospitals. Since the very beginning of the treatment the patient and their family is provided with nursing care whose scope depends on the drug administered and on the condition of a patient. The procedures undertaken by the nurse include: educating the patient and their family in the preparation and administration of a drug, coping with adverse effects, monitoring the neurological and emotional condition of a patient and providing support during all treatment period.

The Effect of the Burden on the Quality of Life of Caregivers of People with Parkinson’s Disease
Authors: Pytel Aleksandra , Laskowska Monika
Published: January 2023

Introduction. Parkinson’s disease is one of the most common neurodegenerative diseases. This condition is progressive in nature. In Europe, Parkinson’s disease is estimated to affect mainly people over the age of 60. It is assumed that around 80–100,000 people in Poland currently suffer from Parkinson’s disease. The disease mainly affects men.Aim. Assessment of the level of burden on caregivers of people with Parkinson’s disease and evaluation of their quality of life.Material and Methods. The study was conducted in the Koło Przyjaciół Ludzi z Chorobą Parkinsona TWK (Friends of People with Parkinson’s Disease TWK Group) in Wrocław and the Leszczyńskie Stowarzyszenie Osób z Chorobami Alzheimera i Parkinsona (Leszno Association of People with Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s Diseases) in Leszno on a group of 92 Parkinson’s disease patients and their 92 caregivers. The study was conducted using a diagnostic survey method with a self-designed questionnaire and the following standardised instruments for caregivers: the WHOQoL-BREF questionnaire, the CBS caregiver burden scale and the HADS anxiety and depression scale. The present study also used questionnaires addressed to Parkinson’s disease patients: a sociodemographic questionnaire, the PDQ-39 quality of life questionnaire, the Hoehn–Yahr disease stage scale and the Beck depression scale BDI.Results. Analysis of the research material showed that: the quality of life of caregivers in the physical, environmental and psychological domains was significantly better in those providing care for 1–5 years than in those looking after patients for more than 10 years. The author’s own research showed that the overall burden among caregivers was significantly higher when the patient had been ill for more than 5 years than when the patient had been ill for 2–5 years, and it was found that the lower the overall level of quality of life and severity of depressive symptoms among PD patients, the lower the quality of life of their caregivers. On the overall burden scale, 47 of the 92 survey participants (51.09%) experienced a medium level of burden and 24 respondents (26.09%) experienced a high level of burden. In addition, the long duration of the disease leads to a higher burden on caregivers.Conclusions. The difficulties associated with the burden of care for caregivers of people with PD represent a significant clinical, social and also economic problem. Moreover, they significantly reduce the quality of life of caregivers, often taking away the joy of caring for loved ones with Parkinson’s disease. (JNNN 2021;10(4):144–152)

Authors: Jabłońska Renata , Działdowska Marzena , Sokal Paweł
Published: January 2023

Introduction. Health behaviours of nurses depend on external and personality factors, they are constantly changing under the influence of experience and acquired knowledge. Presenting the right attitudes towards health can have an impact on conducting effective health education.

Aim. Assessment of health-promoting behaviour and positive orientation among nurses.

Material and Methods. The research was carried out on a group of 79 nurses of the neurology and rehabilitation departments. The method of diagnostic survey was used with the use of the Health Behaviour Inventory (HBI) questionnaire, the Positive Orientation Scale questionnaire and the self-authored questionnaire.

Results. In the analysis of the HBI survey, sten 5 and 4 (36 people) obtained the highest number of respondents, which define the average level of health behaviours on the border of low; the highest rated were positive mental attitude and preventive behaviour, the lowest were health practices. In the Positive Orientation Scale, the greatest number of people obtained sten 4 and 6 (31 people) — the average level of positive orientation, the majority of respondents obtained average results in terms of attitude to the future (57 people). The positive orientation results remained in a statistically significant mean correlation with the results of health behaviours and positive mental attitude, and in a low correlation with the results of health practices (p < 0.05).

Conclusions. The respondents present an average level of health behaviours. Positive mental attitude and preventive behaviour were the most preferred. Most of the nurses showed a moderate level of positive orientation and an indifferent attitude to the future. (JNNN 2022;11(2):49–58).
Screening among Pregnant Women for Cytomegalovirus (CMV) Infection — Recommendations in Poland and Selected Countries Worldwide (a Preliminary Study to Investigate the Incidence of Neurological Complications in CMV — Infected Children)

Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is the most common cause of congenital infections worldwide, yet it remains an underestimated public health problem. There are no international standards for the prevention of vertical transmission of the infection, and the management of pregnant women as well as fetuses with symptoms of infection. The analysis was conducted between December and February 2022. The detailed criteria of inclusion in the analysis included: a separate study group, consisting only of pregnant women regardless of their stage, and statistical analysis of obtained data with particular emphasis on the result of antibodies against CMV antigens in IgG and IgM class. The introduction of universal screening is still controversial. In most countries, routine determination of IgG and IgM antibodies to CMV antigens is not recommended among pregnant women, but these tests are often offered to them independently of nationally approved screening programmes.

Socio–hermenéutica da episteme de Otero Pedrayo: os alicerces dun coñecemento máis humano
Authors: R. Coca Juan
Published: January 2023

A intención deste traballo é analizar a episteme desenvolvida por Otero Pedrayo. No artigo exponse un estudo socio-hermenéutico da obra oteriana e conclúese que a episteme deste pensador era moi poliédrica. Porén destaca o carácter dadaísta, romántico e barroco do seu pensamento. Grazas a esta perspectiva podemos alicerzar unha episteme humanista e de gran valor para o coñecemento en ciencias sociais.

Con la verdad por delante (o por detrás). Apuntes sobre la verosimilitud de la imagen
Authors: Zunzunegui Santos , Zumalde Imanol
Published: January 2023

Este artículo reflexiona, con los principios de la semiótica estructural en la mano, acerca de las bases epistemológicas en las que se funda el escurridizo con concepto de verdad. Para ello sopesa detenidamente las nociones de mundo natural e ilusión referencial, y se esfuerza por situar en su debido lugar la dimensión constatativa de la imagen fotoquímica. Todo este esfuerzo teórico dirige sus armas a esclarecer que el formato discursivo conocido como documental se singulariza precisamente por Hacer Parecer Verdadero lo que muestra, o si se prefiere, por movilizar un variado catálogo de tácticas de simulación para poner en pie una verdad textual.
L’immagine del turco nella Sicilia del Cinquecento
Authors: Nobile Marco Rosario
Published: January 2023

Il contributo individua nella produzione artistica siciliana tra il 1560 e il 1585 alcune opere che contemplano in forme scultoree l’immagine dei “turchi” sconfitti. La “cona” realizzata da Antonino Gagini da Palermo per il duomo di San Giorgio a Ragusa ne offre uno dei primi esempi significativi; sul versante opposto dell’isola, l’esempio più eloquente è rinvenibile nel lato esterno di porta Nuova o porta Austria di Palermo. Le raffigurazioni sono articolate in varianti drammatiche, epiche e, indirettamente, consolatorie, secondo le indicazioni offerte da Vitruvio: l’antico si presta a offrire una spiegazione per eventi tragici e per le condizioni drammatiche del presente. In alcune iconografie cinquecentesche l’immagine vilipesa del nemico annientato sostituisce anche la raffigurazione del peccato e dell’eresia. Rimane da comprendere quando questo fenomeno di sostituzione del soggetto cominci, esploda, si amplifichi, diventi in qualche misura ufficiale e convenzionale.
En pie de guerra: imágenes estratégicas de los puertos de A Coruña y Ferrol ante la amenaza de un ataque naval (1621-1639)
Authors: Vigo Trasancos Alfredo
Published: January 2023

El fin de la Tregua de los Doce Años con Holanda y la posterior entrada en guerra de Inglaterra y Francia obligó a la monarquía española a conocer el estado de nuestros principales puertos atlánticos, en previsión de que pudiesen ser atacados por el enemigo. Para ello fueron solicitados a los gobernadores de los reinos periféricos informes sobre su estado militar buscando ponerlos en situación de defensa. Galicia no fue una excepción, dada la posición que ocupaban los puertos de A Coruña y Ferrol en la política naval del gobierno de los Austrias; de ahí que, junto a informes escritos, también se realizasen planos de gran precisión para enviar al rey, dándole cuenta de su estado, de lo que guardaban de interés y de sus necesidades militares, básicas para repeler un ataque.
El dibujante ingeniero hacia la universalidad de la dualidad arte/técnica en la cartografía militar del siglo XVIII
Authors: Muñoz Corbalán Juan Miguel
Published: January 2023

Las directrices conceptuales de esta aportación giran en torno a la constatación del progreso desarrollado desde la segunda mitad del siglo XVII y durante todo el siglo XVIII en los métodos de representación espacial manejados por los profesionales militares, básicamente ingenieros y cartógrafos, mediante los procesos cartográficos propios de esta disciplina técnico-artística. Uno de los principales argumentos consistirá en la interrelación y el balance de ambos aspectos, técnicos y artísticos, para una adecuada aproximación y comprensión de la citada evolución, que permitió a la cartografía de la segunda mitad de la época moderna desarrollar progresivamente un lenguaje científico sin menospreciar por ello buena parte de los recursos mayormente relacionados con la componente estética del proceso de representación gráfica y pictórica.
Cine bélico. Cuerpos, espacios y verdad
Authors: Casas Moliner Quim
Published: January 2023

Al cine bélico, uno de los géneros más activos durante la edad de oro del cine clásico estadounidense, le ha ocurrido lo mismo que a otros géneros clave, el western y el musical. Las modas, ausencia de un recambio generacional de cineastas y los cambios de hábitos de la industria y de los espectadores lo han relegado a una condición casi anecdótica. Y no deja de resultar paradójico que en tiempos de tantos conflictos bélicos, en la era de la globalización de la violencia institucionalizada, el cine de guerra, que ha cultivado una cierta búsqueda de la verdad a través de los cuerpos y los espacios, sea solo un género que gotea cuando debería seguir siendo un reflejo de la realidad.

Authors: Kaafil Rehumaan Shifana Fatima
Published: January 2023

In this paper, an attempt has been made to study the behavior of beam and arch bridges subjected to static uniformly distributed loads. The target audience of this research paper is Architecture students because they would like to visualize the structural concepts for better understanding with minimal calculation. For this reason, a static load test was conducted on three types of beam bridges and on three types of arch bridges. The performance of the arch bridge is studied by changing the type of beam, and the results are compared with the beam bridge. Based on the test results, it is found that the performance of glued beam bridges is recommended for less span than arch bridges.

Published: January 2023

Background: Regular physical activity helps in independent living, prevention of chronic health problems and quality of life in the elderly. The aim of the study is to determinewhether physical fitness is associated with multiple dimensions of well-being in the community dwelling elderly.Materials and Methods: A community-based cross-sectional study was undertaken to assess the physical fitness and perceived wellness in 400 elderly (≥65 years) subjects. The Senior Fitness Test (SFT) for assessing functional/physical fitness and Perceived Wellness Survey (PWS) were used to assess their well-being. Bivariate correlation analysis was used for individual testsand multiple linear regressions were used to analyze relationship of wellness composite score with physical fitness test.XXXXResults: 284men and 116 women (mean ages 69.80±3.82 and67.25±2.57 years, respectively) were assessed for physical fitness tests and perceived wellness.‘Arm-curl’ and ‘chair-sit’ testsshowedlinear decrease in strength with increasing age. In ‘back-scratch’ and ‘chair-sit and reach’ tests lower limb flexibility was better than upper limb in all except the 65–69 year sub-group. Maximum time to perform the ‘8-feet up-and-go’ test increased progressively with age, whereas ‘2-minute step’ test showed a linear decrease in mean score with advancing age. Wellness composite score (14.54±2.31) inmaleswas maximum in the 75–79 year age-group, while in females it (15.26±2.29) was maximum in the 70–74 year age-group. Correlation analysis of physical fitness test with perception of wellness (composite score) showed significant association of ‘arm-curl’ test (p=0.012), ‘back-scratch’ test (p=0.0002), ‘8-feet up-and-go’ test (p=0.005), ‘2-minute step’ test (p=0.005) with the composite wellness score in the male participants, whereas in the females such significance was observed only in the ‘2 minute step’ test (p=0.007) with the wellness score.Conclusion: Screening of physical fitness and wellness are important measures in assessing wellness of community dwelling elderly, and in predicting theiroverall state of well-being, including age-specific comparison of fitness performance and wellness score.
Dialogic and ritual language resources in a colonial Mayan text to heal smallpox
Authors: Hernández Rodríguez Ernesto
Published: January 2023

This essay describes language practices in a 16th Century colonial Yucatecan Mayan text to cure smallpox, included in the Ritual de los Bacabes (Bacabes Ritual) by Joan Canul. The textual characterization involves the dialogical nature of the spell, performed in the different roles assumed by the healer or magician priest when interacting with his interlocutors, mainly, the deities and spirits related to the creation and healing of smallpox, and the bacabes, who hold the sky. The analysis includes multiple meanings in symbolic and contextual perspectives. The Mayan ritual exhibits evidence of oral tradition and reading practices from ancient codex texts. Language ritual resources include lexical, semantic, discursive, and stylistic manifestations to achieve certain communicative intentionality. In these ritual documents, it is possible to appreciate the transmission of spoken tradition to the alphabetic written texts in practices involved to cure a variety of physical and emotional illnesses in the colonial Mayan culture.
