The Judges Ethics and Justice: An Analysis of Law Enforcement in Indonesian Court System
Authors: Setyowati Herning
Published: December 2021

Technical skills education in the field of law that neglects the aspect relating to the responsibility of a person to the person entrusted to him and his profession in general and the values and ethical measures that should be guidelines in carrying out his profession will only produce skilled handyman in the field of law and his profession. Such circumstances not only make the clinical education incomplete because the prospective member of the profession does not know how he should use his acquired technical skills. In fact, it is no exaggeration to say that technical skills education without the education of professional and ethical responsibility is dangerous. In general, it can be said that every profession puts the expert concerned in a special circumstance, both because of the extraordinary powers entrusted to him (such as judges and prosecutors) as well as the fate of the interested person entrusted to him (in the case of the defense). When viewed in the framework of law enforcement as a matter of public interest, that responsibility is essentially also a trust mandate concerning public interest (public trust). It is undeniable that certain positions or professions have special positions or duties because they are subject to more severe conditions than are generally applicable for good practice rather than their duties or functions and the protection of those concerned.

Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengembangkan instrumen diagnostik pilihan ganda two-tier untuk mengidentifikasi miskonsepsi siswa SMA pada topik asam basa (Tes Diagnostik Two-tier untuk Mendeteksi Miskonsepsi Siswa pada Topik Asam-basa/ TDTMMTA). Pengembangan instrumen diagnostik ini menggunakan kerangka kerja yang diuraikan oleh Treagust (1998). Dalam pengembangan instrumen ini, 154 siswa dilibatkan dalam wawancara, tes uraian, tes pilihan ganda dengan alasan terbuka, dan tes diagnostik two-tier. Dari keseluruhan siswa, 34 siswa digunakan untuk mengidentifikasi miskosepsi siswa menggunakan TDTMMTA. Terdapat 16 butir soal valid dengan nilai reliabilitas menggunakan persamaan Cronbach’s Alpha sebesar 0,764. Berdasarkan analisis miskonsepsi dari enam konsep utama dari asam basa, mayoritas siswa (54,46%) mengalami miskonsepsi pada konsep pH. Tetapi, sedikit siswa (15,54%) mengalami miskonsepsi pada konsep perhitungan pH. Secara keseluruhan, instrumen TDTMMTA cukup efektif untuk menentukan miskonsepsi siswa. Oleh karena itu, instrumen ini dapat digunakan sebagai tes alternatif untuk mengevaluasi miskonsepsi siswa pada topik asam basa.

Published: December 2021

Selfie, a commonly observed behaviour, is symbol of virtual identity. Similarly, narcissism as described by grandiose view of oneself, seeking approval and admiration on social media is also frequent. The purpose of this study is exploring selfie taking behaviour and narcissism among young adults. A total 132 subjects were considered for study through an online questionnaire which included demographic variables, selfie taking behaviour and NPI-16 (Narcissistic Personality Inventory -16). The results showed majority of the subjects N = 76 (57.5%) had high narcissism (NPI ≥ 7). Age group 15 to 25 years (p= 0.0200), males, subjects who stayed in city, post graduates or graduate qualification, and married subjects had high narcissism. Using smart phone use more than 5 years (p=0.00942), taking 5 to 10 selfies per day with (p=0.00331), posting selfie for personal memory (p=0.03268), selfie on WhatsApp messenger (p=0.03268) and taking selfie with person alone and selfie taken on specific occasions (p=0.01122), had high narcissism. The conclusion of this study is selfie and narcissism are closely linked among young adults and a matter of psychological wellbeing during personality development.

The aim of this study is to determine the effect of conformity on adolescent impulsive buying behavior on fashion products in the marketplace moderated by self-control. The research method used in this research is quantitative.  The data collection used in this research is by sharing the questionnaire in the form of Google Form starts from July to September. The researchers use non-probability sampling method with voluntary response sampling. Respondents in this study are 150 teenagers. The data analysis technique used in this research is multiple linear regression analysis. Based on the results of data analysis carried out, it is found that there is a significant relationship between conformity to adolescent impulsive buying behavior. Furthermore, the self-control variable as a moderating variable also has a significant effect on the independent and dependent variables in this study. The results of the study found that the conformity variable (X) simultaneously affected the impulsive buying variable (Y) by 73.1%, while 26.9% is influenced by other variables outside the regression equation or variables that are not examined. Other than that, the self-control as the moderation variable can moderate the effect between conformity and impulse buying in adolescents. For further research, there needs other variables that can be conducted to know what affects impulse buying with conducting to other types of society other than an adolescent.
Tryptase- and ghrelin positive mast cells in the interalveolar septa of rat’s lung
Authors: Ivanova I. G. , Stefanov I. S.
Published: December 2021

The mast cell mediators and distribution of lung mast cells in rats are often discussed in experimental studies on pulmonary fibrotic and allergic processes associated with changes in numbers of these cells, but information on the normal distribution of metachromatic and tryptase-positive mast cells in the interalveolar septa is scarce. There are no data on the presence of ghrelin in lung mast cells as well as the age-specific features of localisation and the number of mast cells in the interalveolar septa in rats of different ages. Therefore, the purpose of the present study was to determine the distribution of metachromatic, tryptase-, and ghrelin-positive mast cells in the interalveolar septa in 20 day-, 3 month- and 1 year-old rats. Tissue sections stained with toluidine blue had been taken from the left lung to visualise metachromasia and immunohistochemical expression of tryptase and ghrelin. The results showed that the amount of metachromatic mast cells in the interalveolar septa was significantly lower than that of tryptase- and ghrelin-positive cells. This allowed suggesting that mast cells were permanent occupants of the rat lung parenchyma and, on the other hand, the expression of ghrelin in their granules was most likely related to the synthesis of this protein. Our study showed that immunohistochemical identification by tryptase expression was more accurate than toluidine blue staining.
Mobilizing knowledge
Authors: Tachino Tosh
Published: December 2021

Many linguistic studies have analyzed the ways in which reported speech is used to mobilize knowledge in academic writing, but there have been far fewer such studies of knowledge mobilization in non-academic genres. This study analyzes the functions of reported speech in a Canadian quasi-judicial public inquiry report, a genre that is intertextually situated between research genres (through academic expert witnesses) and policy genres (through its role in making policy recommendations to the government). All instances of explicitly marked citation and reported speech in the commission report were identified and coded by function. The findings show citation and reported speech had specific functions that contributed to knowledge mobilization by discursively creating evidence, transporting worldviews and values, and changing knowledge status in the legal genres. The analysis also raises theoretical questions in linguistics, resulting in the argument that reported speech is not a static, formal category but a discursive status negotiated by the participants.
FM y los cuentos para el final del alfabeto: fragmentaciones identitarias en X, Y y Z
Authors: Escandell-Montiel Daniel
Published: December 2021

El libro de relatos Cuentos de X, Y y Z ofrece una serie de historias breves o muy breves en las que los personajes principales son referidos exclusivamente con esas letras. En nuestro análisis de la compilación de cuentos analizamos este recurso a través de las implicaciones fractales que se derivan de la recursividad de unas incógnitas empleadas como sustitutas de nombres de personajes que se repiten de forma sistemática. Proponemos que este elemento, en combinación con la recepción semionáutica de la obra, que hace que el lector busque nuevas relaciones y combinaciones significativas, influye de forma directa en la conceptualización de los personajes a lo largo del proceso lector. Esto nos hace concluir que es a partir de estos dos factores como se produce una percepción particular e individual de la identidad de los personajes que conforman el trío protagonista.

Published: December 2021

In this study, changes in the pore water pressure were observed for saturated specimens of a loose fined-grain sand (Nam O sand) and a soft silty clay (Hue clay) subjected to undrained cyclic shearing with different testing conditions. The cyclic shear tests were run for relatively wide range of shear strain amplitude (g = 0.05%-2%), different cycle numbers (n = 10, 50, 150 and 200) and various shear directions (uni-direction and two-direction with phase difference of q = 0o, 45o and 90o). It is indicated from the experimental results that under the same cyclic shearing condition, the pore water pressure accumulation in Hue clay is at a slower rate, suggesting a higher cyclic shear resistance of Hue clay than that of Nam O sand. Liquefaction is reached easily in nominally 50% relative density specimens of Nam O sand when g ³ 0.4%, meanwhile soft specimen of Hue clay is not liquefied regardless of the cyclic shearing conditions used in this study. The threshold number of cycles for the pore water pressure generation generally decreases with g meanwhile, the threshold cumulative shear strain for such a property mostly approaches 0.1%. In addition, by using this new strain path parameter, it becomes more advantageous when evaluating the pore water pressure accumulation in Nam O sand and Hue clay subjected to undrained uni-directional and two-directional cyclic shears.

Authors: Oliveira Fernanda de , Bastos João Luiz , Moretti-Pires Rodrigo Otávio
Published: December 2021

Este estudo investigou como a interação entre os eixos de marginalização raça/cor, gênero, escolaridade e discriminação interpessoal afeta distintas dimensões da qualidade de vida de indivíduos adultos. Trata-se de uma análise transversal, realizada com dados da segunda onda do Estudo EpiFloripa Adulto, conduzida em Florianópolis, Sul do Brasil, em 2012. Estimamos modelos de regressão linear para cada domínio e para a qualidade de vida geral, aferida com o WHOQOL-Bref. O método KHB foi utilizado para estimar o papel mediador da discriminação percebida nas associações dos eixos de marginalização com qualidade de vida. A análise demonstrou que escolaridade e gênero operam em conjunto, mas não interseccionalmente, sobre a qualidade de vida geral e sobre o domínio físico, com prejuízo para as mulheres e indivíduos com até 11 anos de estudo. Escolaridade e raça/cor foram preditores do domínio meio ambiente, com médias inferiores para negros e indivíduos com até 11 anos de estudo. No domínio psicológico, a intersecção entre gênero e escolaridade resultou em uma média 2,9 pontos maior para mulheres com 12+ anos de estudo. Gênero e raça/cor foram preditores da qualidade de vida no domínio social, reduzindo em 11,3 pontos a média das mulheres negras. Análises de mediação demonstraram que 29,6% do efeito da interseccção entre escolaridade e gênero sobre o domínio psicológico e 4,3% do efeito da intersecção entre raça/cor e gênero sobre o domínio social foram mediados pela discriminação interpessoal. Esses resultados confirmam as hipóteses do estudo, apontando a importância e a contribuição da análise interseccional para a investigação das iniquidades na qualidade de vida.
HTLV na agenda de governo: o caso da Bahia e de Minas Gerais, Brasil
Authors: Garcia Ionara Ferreira da Silva , Hennington Élida Azevedo
Published: December 2021

O HTLV é um retrovírus que afeta os linfócitos T humanos. Sua forma de transmissão é por via hematogênica, sexual ou vertical. A maioria das pessoas infectadas são portadores assintomáticos, porém, algumas podem vir a desenvolver quadros graves como a paraparesia espástica tropical, leucemia/linfoma, dentre outras manifestações. O Brasil é considerado o país com o maior número absoluto de casos, com estimativa de 800 mil infectados. Este artigo teve como objetivo conhecer e analisar o processo de introdução do HTLV na agenda governamental nos estados da Bahia e Minas Gerais, que repercutiu em ações e políticas setoriais. Foram realizadas entrevistas com atores-chave e pesquisa documental, e para análise utilizamos como principal referencial o modelo Múltiplos Fluxos de John Kingdon. Constatamos que vários fatores contribuíram para inclusão do tema na agenda da Bahia, estado com maior abrangência das políticas voltadas ao HTLV, tais como alta prevalência da infecção, contexto político favorável e militância de indivíduos vivendo com HTLV. Em Minas Gerais observamos dificuldades para implementação de política setorial e que a inexistência de grupos organizados reverteu negativamente para que o problema não fosse uma prioridade para as Secretarias de Saúde no estado. Na atual conjuntura, indivíduos infectados pelo HTLV e outros atores envolvidos com o tema ainda possuem um longo caminho a percorrer na mobilização social para investimentos na área, para a formulação e implementação de políticas públicas e conquista de direitos sociais.

Published: December 2021

The article examined the issues related to the introduction of amendments to the Tax Code of the Russian Federation. The amendments improve tax administration, including control. The research examined in-house tax audits of tax returns and calculations. We studied the expansion of the rights of tax authorities to control and the obligations of taxpayers to fill out tax returns and maintain tax records as well as to correct identified inconsistencies and errors for which declarations and calculations may be recognized as unreported. We also analyzed the possibility to conduct in-house tax audits based on the information available to tax authorities and reduce the number of requirements for additional information from taxpayers. The purpose of the study was to determine the possibilities of interaction between tax payers and tax authorities in the process of conducting tax control, without excessive interference of tax authorities in the activities of tax payers, including sending endless requests for explanations and documents.
Injury incidence and burden during senior inter-provincial field hockey tournaments
Authors: Pereira Nicholas , Burgess Theresa , Corton Lieselotte
Published: December 2021

Background: Field hockey is an Olympic sport played internationally and in which South Africa is a participating nation. It also has its own world cup. Few injury studies have been published on South African field hockey. Research efforts should increase within the sport to ensure safe participation and mitigate the inherent injury risks. Objectives: The objective of the study was to attend the male and female inter-provincial field hockey tournaments in South Africa and determine the incidence of injury and burden of acquired sport injuries (time-loss and medical attention).
Methods: A quantitative, descriptive, longitudinal study, including 133 females and 139 males, was conducted. Participants completed baseline questionnaires prior to the tournament and post-match questionnaires detailing injuries during the tournament.
Results: The recorded injuries were 77.9 (females) and 99.5 (males) per 1 000 player match hours. Medical attention was 51.9 (females) and 70.3 (males) injuries per 1 000 player match hours. The result for time-loss injuries was 4.3 (females) and 7.5 (males) injuries per 1 000 player match hours. Discussion: The study found high incidence rates of all injuries and medical attention injuries; however, the incidence of time-loss injuries was low in comparison to existing literature. Comparing current results to existing literature is challenging due to the heterogeneity of methodologies and injury definitions in field hockey research.
Conclusion: This was the largest observational study in field hockey conducted in South Africa. The international sporting body should establish a consensus for future research and the South African Hockey Association explore long-term surveillance in South Africa to mimic similar national codes.
Analysis of rope load sharing on multi-rope friction winders
Authors: Greenway M.E. , Grobler S.R. , Bilessuris S.
Published: December 2021

Ensuring that all the head ropes on a multi-rope friction winder share the load equally has been a design and maintenance issue since they were first developed. Accurate machining of the rope grooves is necessary to meet this objective. Early analysis of the change of rope loads for ropes in grooves that are mismatched in depth treated the grooves as rigid. Groove depth tolerances deduced from this analysis are stringent and difficult to achieve in practice. Test work indicated that the inherent flexibility of groove lining materials alleviates the load-sharing problem. However, no analysis of rope load changes due to mismatched flexible grooves has been published. In this paper we develop new equations for the rope load variation for flexible grooves. By allowing flexibility to reduce to zero, the corresponding rigid rope groove equations are obtained. New criteria for tolerable groove depth variations are developed from this analysis, which depend on the flexibility of the groove lining material.
Predicting standard threshold shifts for occupational hearing loss among miners at a large-scale platinum mine in South Africa
Authors: Ntlhakana L. , Nelson G. , Khoza-Shangase K. , Maposa I.
Published: December 2021

Occupational noise-induced hearing loss (ONIHL) is associated with various risk factors in South African mines. We investigated the association between standard threshold shifts (STSs) and exposure to noise and platinum mine dust (PMD), using demographic data, five years of annual audiometry screening results, and noise and dust exposure data. Miners' age, sex, percentage hearing loss (PLH), and dust and noise exposure data were gathered, and a linear mixed effects regression model used to predict STS. Average occupational exposure levels to noise and dust were calculated from recorded measurements. A total of 12 692 records were analysed. Most miners were male (89.6%) and more than 50% were younger than 41 years. More than 70% were exposed to > 85 dBA noise and 58% were exposed to 1.5-2.99 mg/m3 PMD. Changes in hearing levels ranged from 8.3 dBHL at baseline (2014/2015) to 10 dBHL in 2016 (STS), with no changes thereafter. The model showed that the estimated effect on STS for males was 27% and 21% higher than for females, for the left and right ear, respectively The estimated effect of age, PLH, noise exposure and years of exposure on STS was < 10% for each variable. There was no statistically significant association between PMD and STS. The combined effects of age, sex, years of exposure to noise, and noise exposure levels, and strength of associations can be used to predict STS for this group of miners. Our findings may be used to measure the efficacy of the mine's hearing conservation programme.
Mineral resource modelling using an unequal sampling pattern: An improved practice based on factorization techniques
Authors: Orynbassar D. , Madani N.
Published: December 2021

This work addresses the problem of geostatistical simulation of cross-correlated variables by factorization approaches in the case when the sampling pattern is unequal. A solution is presented, based on a Co-Gibbs sampler algorithm, by which the missing values can be imputed. In this algorithm, a heterotopic simple cokriging approach is introduced to take into account the cross-dependency of the undersampled variable with the secondary variable that is more available over the entire region. A real gold deposit is employed to test the algorithm. The imputation results are compared with other Gibbs sampler techniques for which simple cokriging and simple kriging are used. The results show that heterotopic simple cokriging outperforms the other two techniques. The imputed values are then employed for the purpose of resource estimation by using principal component analysis (PCA) as a factorization technique, and the output compared with traditional factorization approaches where the heterotopic part of the data is removed. Comparison of the results of these two techniques shows that the latter leads to substantial losses of important information in the case of an unequal sampling pattern, while the former is capable of reproducing better recovery functions.
Microstructure, microhardness, and tensile properties of hot-rolled Al6061/TiB2/CeO2 hybrid composites
Authors: Iyengar S. , Sethuram D. , Shobha R. , Koppad P.G.
Published: December 2021

T1B2 and CeO2 particle-reinforced A16061 hybrid composites were manufactured using stir casting and hot rolling techniques. The base alloy and composites were hot-rolled at 500°C and a 50% reduction was achieved through 12 passes. The effect of varying TB2 and CeO2 particle additions on the microstructure and mechanical properties of the Al6061 matrix was studied. Scanning electron microscopy showed uniform dispersion of both the reinforcements, with good interfacial bonding. Microhardness and tensile properties like yield and tensile strength were found to be higher for hybrid composite with 2.5% TiB2 and 2.5% CeO2 compared to Al6061 alloy and other hybrid composites. The increased tensile strength is attributed to good dispersion and interfacial bonding between the particles and Al6061 matrix. Fracture analysis using a scanning electron microscope revealed ductile fracture for the Al6061 alloy and mixed characteristics of ductile-brittle fracture for hybrid composites.
Daniel 1:3-7: Intereses reales e implicancias en relación al sacerdocio hebreo/babilónico

La extensa literatura en conexión al libro de Daniel presenta como postura tradicional, la intencionalidad del rey en convertir a los jóvenes hebreos en vasallos reales. Sin embargo, el presente escrito busca ampliar la interpretación tradicional a una valoración de éste en el plano sacerdotal. La función del rey se convertía en un medio para controlar y monitorear cada aspecto religioso del reino. De esta forma se afirman las bases para esta última y posible forma interpretativa, o incluso para la fusión de ambas posiciones como un acto de formar oficiales aptos para el beneficio de la estructura de reino, ya sea a nivel político, civil y religioso.

Obtaining positive effects of strategic management is provided in: intellectualization of all types of economic activity and formation of knowledge economy: dominance of scientific and scientific-technical personnel in the structure of employees - 1/3 in the total number of employees in industry and 2/5 in the total number of employees in services; growth in the number of scientific organizations (more than 10 thousand), the number of researchers (more than 5 million people), the number of scientific and scientific-technical journals); massification of higher education: planetary growth in the number of universities (17 thousand) and the number of students (now almost 200 million people, by 2030 - more than 400 million people); internationalization: the emergence of world markets for educational services, scientific and technical information, IPR; formation of leading players in these markets (world-class universities, transnational publishing holdings, TNCs); growth in the number of international students (by 2025 - 7 million people); informatization and digitalization: distance education; electrification and digital transformation of scientific journals, scientific libraries, patenting; new organizations in the form of R&D (virtual teams, distributed research centers) and scientific communications (video conferencing, e-mail, placement of scientific papers on professional web pages) international scientometric databases MNBD Web of Science and Scopus; globalization: the emergence of global public goods; activities of international organizations (UN, UNESCO, World Bank, WIPO); deployment of global scientific information space; international co-authorship and foreign publications, academic mobility; formation of a global system for evaluating the publication activity of researchers and research organizations on the basis of MNBD; ranking of scientific organizations (World ranking of scientific organizations SIR) and universities (Reputational rating, Rating of world universities QS, Shanghai rating ARWU, Webometrics), etc.
Hybrid Welding of Metal-Polymer Composites with a Non- Conducting Polymer Layer

Published: December 2021

Metal-polymer composites (MPCs) are becoming increasingly popular primarily because of their high strength-to-weight ratio. Metal-polymer composites consist of three layers, i.e. two external metallic sheets (linings) and the core made of plastic. The presence of the internal plastic layer makes MPCs impossible to join using conventional welding processes, which significantly limits their usability. One of the solutions to the problem involves the use of hybrid methods, e.g. ultrasonic method-aided resistance welding. The research work discussed in the article involved the development of a prototype test rig and a technology enabling the joining of the Litecor® composite with steel DP600. The joining process consisted of two stages. The first stage involved the removal of the non-conducting layer of polymer from the welding area and the making of an appropriate electric contact for resistance welding. The second stage was the classical resistance spot welding process. The development of the concept posed a challenge as it was necessary to develop an appropriate acoustic waveguide for high-power ultrasonic waves which, at the same time, could transfer loads in the form of electrode force as well as provide appropriate electric and thermal conductivity without compromising acoustic parameters during the welding process. The development of the test rig was followed by the performance of numerous tests aimed to identify the appropriate window of process parameters. Test joints were subjected to macrographic, strength, ultrasonic and topographic tests.

Nursing has emerged as one of the main professions with a humanistic sense specialized in health care. The accent on personal development favored by training in humanities allows for questioning whether a training specifically focused on the workplace abilities enhances personal fulfilment at work. A pilot workshop on Ethics and Humanities at Work was offered in tertiary hospital to assess the influence of ethics and humanities in attitude toward work. Nineteen nurses completed the workshop; attitude towards change and attitude towards teamwork increased significantly. In this pilot study we found that the workshop influenced attitude towards change at work and teamwork. Since an attitude is made up of the cognitive, affective, and behavioral components, the change in one of these has the capacity to modify part of the others.

Authors: Morales-Rodríguez Francisco Manuel
Published: December 2021

Gracias a esfuerzos de colaboración, se desarrolló con éxito un proyecto de innovación docente dentro del currículo universitario. Este artículo presenta el posterior estudio comparativo de las actitudes y los conocimientos sobre la diversidad afectivo-sexual, corporal y de género antes y después de su implementación. El estudio también evaluó el nivel de cumplimiento de los objetivos del proyecto y la satisfacción con las actividades relacionadas con la adquisición de competencias interdisciplinarias y la promoción de valores relacionados con la diversidad afectivo-sexual, corporal y de género, la equidad, la coeducación, la atención a la diversidad y la igualdad de género. El proyecto implicó a 2400 estudiantes, en su mayoría de las facultades de Psicología y Ciencias de la Educación. Se utilizó un diseño de investigación transversal no experimental, con un muestreo de conveniencia de las personas participantes. Los resultados muestran un aumento de las competencias relacionadas con la diversidad, incluyendo la eliminación de ciertos estereotipos y el desarrollo de la empatía. También se contactó con entidades y asociaciones profesionales de fuera de la universidad para examinar formas de mejorar la inclusión y la igualdad de género en otros entornos. Esta ampliación del proyecto puso de manifiesto la necesidad de un Observatorio de la Mujer en las zonas rurales, que fue creado para promover el empleo y las competencias empresariales de las mujeres y los colectivos desfavorecidos como forma de mejorar su inclusión, la atención a la diversidad y la promoción de la igualdad de género.
Como a Psicologia/Educação Positiva podem empoderar as escolas no contexto da pandemia?
Authors: Reppold Caroline
Published: December 2021

Um dos contextos mais afetados pela pandemia da COVID-19 foi o escolar, requerendo de alunos, pais e professores o desenvolvimento de novas habilidades. O distanciamento social imposto em muitos países trouxe como legado a criação de práticas inovadoras de ensino-aprendizagem e novas formas de interação social e de expressão de afetos. Essas mudanças destacam a importância das técnicas de autorregulação emocional e do desenvolvimento de valores e ações em prol do bem-estar coletivo. Nesse sentido, a Psicologia e a Educação Positivas têm efetivamente contribuído para ajudar as escolas a promover, além de habilidades acadêmicas, valores e crenças positivos (como compaixão/autocompaixão, esperança/otimismo, solidariedade e sentido de vida), que impactam o desempenho escolar, a saúde e a forma como as pessoas percebem a si no mundo, seus propósitos e potencialidades. O objetivo desse artigo é apresentar evidências científicas de como a Psicologia e a Educação Positivas, por meio de suas técnicas e linhas de atuação, podem empoderar a comunidade escolar, e em particular os alunos, no contexto atual da pandemia.

Objective: In this study, sociodemographic characteristics and diagnoses of patients who presented to Tokat Gaziosmanpaşa University School of Medicine Department of Psychiatry for disability evaluation and who were confirmed to be psychiatrically disabled.
Method: The files of the patients who presented to the health board for disability determination between 01.01.2019-31.12.2019 were reviewed retrospectively. Descriptive statistical analyses were performed for demographic and clinical data.
Results: There were 494 patients over the age of 18 who presented for disability determination. It was concluded that 43 of 157 cases with psychiatric diagnosis at the time of presentation were confirmed to be disabled. The average age of these cases was 42.56 ± 8.50 years and 37 (86%) were male. The most common diagnosis of disability was mental retardation with an of IQ 50 and below (n = 18, 41.86%) and schizophrenia and its subtypes (n = 12, 27.9%) unable to be employed despite treatment.
Conclusion: The results of our study will guide future studies on the recognition of mental disorders that result in disability and adversely affect the employment and to bring these patients back into employment.

Objective: The use of different scales in preparing disability reports results in different rates of disability.  Comparing the disability rates measured by the Disability Scale and the Disability Status Scale, this research aims at identiying differences between the scales, thereby indicating various hardships experts encounter.
Materials and Method: The cases’ gender, occupation and trauma history as well as the request letters, the injuries related to the event and the examination findings were recorded in case report forms. After calculating each case’s profit loss rate in profession and disability rate, the components that lead to different rates were evaluated.
Results: Following trauma, tibial, fibula and vertebral injuries occurred at most, and the most frequent disorders (52%) were found to involve a limitation of movement at a joint and a gait disorder. Since the disorders of almost half of the cases (48.1%) identified with sequela in the Disability Scale do not appear in the A Scale, the discretionary power was enacted. Within the scope of the Disability Status Scale, the discreationary power was employed in 5 cases (3.1%). Average disability ratio of the cases (9.01%) appeared to be significantly lesser (p<0.05) than their average profit loss rate in profession (15.14%).
Conclusion: Calculation of different rates for the same sequela in two scales results in unjust treatments. Ensuring conceptual uniformity and updating the two scales in meetings where both legal and forensic experts share their ideas about various challenges in preparing disability reports by declaring their solutions is of significance in issuing reports.
Do Trade Agreements Contribute to the Decline in Labor Share? Evidence from Latin American Countries
Authors: González Rozada Martín , Ruffo Hernán
Published: December 2021

In this paper, we explore the role of trade in the evolution of labor share in Latin American countries. We use trade agreements with large economies (the United States, the European Union, and China) to capture the effect of sharp changes in trade. In the last two decades, labor share has displayed a negative trend among those countries that signed trade agreements, while in other countries labor share increased, widening the gap by 7 percentage points. We apply synthetic control methods to estimate the average causal impact of trade agreements on labor share. While effects are heterogeneous in our eight case studies, the average impact is negative between 2 to 4 percentage points of GDP four years after the entry into force of the trade agreements. This result is robust to the specification used and to the set of countries in the donor pool. We also find that, after trade agreements, exports of manufactured goods and the share of industry in GDP increase on average, most notably in the case studies where negative effects on labor share are significant. A decomposition shows that all the reduction in labor share is explained by a negative impact on real wages.

The authors prove that there are two main forms of public control of government procurement: independent monitoring and public discussion of procurement. A comparative analysis of the concepts of “procurement monitoring” and “public monitoring” in relation to the concept of “independent procurement monitoring” is carried out in order to formulate and to find ways to solve controversial issues of implementing public control in the studied area. The results of a comparison of the previous and existing procedures for public discussion of purchases allow us to conclude that the procedure for conducting them is significantly simplified at the present time. Particular attention is paid to the problem of the recommendatory nature of the application of the results of public control of government procurement.
