Design of Short-Turning Service for a Bus Route with Hybrid Vehicle Type
Authors: Liang Shidong , Zhang Hu , Ma Minghui
Published: September 2019

On the high-demand bus route where there are commuting passengers, the stops for boarding and alighting passengers are concentrated in a certain section of the route. According to this demand pattern, transit operators need to respond symmetrically. Short-turning services promise benefits for both users and operators because a proportion of vehicles runs within shorter cycles and address a greater demand. The design of short-turning services mainly involves defining running section and frequency. Due to two sections of high and low demand being distinguished under the short-turning service, dealing with each section by vehicle type and selecting an appropriate vehicle type for each section can satisfy passengers demand well, instead of a single vehicle type. Considering the interests of passengers and buses, this paper establishes objective functions to determine the running section of short-turning buses by frequencies and vehicle types. Two optimization models with single and hybrid vehicle type are formulated that can be compared with each other and reflect the differences of method with hybrid vehicle type. Load factor is established as a performance measure to express the degree of utilization of bus resources. A layer-by-layer search method incorporating Monte Carlo simulation is proposed to solve the optimization model. Finally, the optimization approach is tested based on a bus route in Changchun City. Sensitivity analyses are then performed on the passenger demand and travel time.
Effect of Nano-Materials on Autogenous Shrinkage Properties of Cement Based Materials
Authors: Liu Xiaoyan , Fang Tingchen , Zuo Junqing
Published: September 2019

This paper presents an experimental investigation on the effect of nano-montmorillonite, carbon nanotubes, and nano calcium carbonate on autogenous shrinkage of cement based materials. Cement paste with different nano-montmorillonite dosage (1.0 wt.%, 2.0 wt.%, 3.0 wt.%), carbon nanotubes dosage (0.1 wt.%, 0.2 wt.%, 0.3 wt.%), and nano calcium carbonate dosage (1.0 wt.%, 2.0 wt.%, 3.0 wt.%) were compared with the reference group to assess the effects of nano-materials on cement paste. Results show that autogenous shrinkage of cement based materials containing nano-materials mainly occurs in the first 72 h. Nano-materials decrease the autogenous shrinkage of the investigated cement based materials at all ages. Compared with that of the reference group at the age of 168 h, the autogenous shrinkage of NM-modified cement based composites containing 3.0 wt.% NM decreased by as much as 57.4%; the autogenous shrinkage of CNTs-modified cement based composites containing 0.3 wt.% CNTs decreased by as much as 19.4%; the autogenous shrinkage of NC-modified cement based composites containing 2.0 wt.% NC decreased by as much as 17.1%. Electrochemical AC (Alternating Current) impedance spectroscopy results show that the resistance of the pore solution electrolyte of specimens containing nano-materials increases with age, and is less than that of specimens without nano-materials, which illustrates that the pore size of nano-modified cement based material is finer and autogenous shrinkage is smaller. Scanning electron microscope results show that the structure of cement matrix is denser with more hydration products by adding nano-materials. Nano-montmorillonite releases water to reduce self-drying effect during the process of hydration for its well water swelling. Carbon nanotubes have the nanometer filling effect and form a continuous network to restrain the early autogenous shrinkage of cement paste. Nano calcium carbonate not only decreases the porosity of the cement paste, but also reacts with tricalcium aluminate to generate the expanded product calcium carboaluminate for compensating autogenous shrinkage of cement paste.
Implementation of Block-Based Hierarchical Prediction for Developing an Error-Propagation-Free Reversible Data Hiding Scheme
Authors: Hu Yu-Chen , Lin Yu-Hsiu , Lo Chun-Chi , Wu Chang-Ming
Published: September 2019

This paper proposes a reversible data hiding technique based on the residual histogram shifting technique. To improve the hiding capacity, this study proposes a multiple-round hierarchical prediction mechanism that generates the prediction errors of each image block. The prediction errors of each block are collected to produce the residual histogram and the secret data are then embedded into the residual histogram to obtain the embedded image. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed technique not only provides good hiding capacity, but also maintains good image quality of the embedded image. In addition, this technique can be easily extended for image integrity protection as it is capable of resisting error propagation.
Heterologous Expression and Characterization of A Novel Ochratoxin A Degrading Enzyme, N-acyl-L-amino Acid Amidohydrolase, from Alcaligenes faecalis
Authors: Zhang Honghai , Zhang Yunpeng , Yin Tie , Wang Jing , Zhang Xiaolin
Published: September 2019

Ochratoxin A (OTA) is a well-known, natural contaminant in foods and feeds because of its toxic effects, such as nephrotoxicity in various animals. Recent studies have revealed that Alcaligenes faecalis could generate enzymes to efficiently degrade OTA to ochratoxin α (OTα) in vitro. In an effort to obtain the OTA degrading mechanism, we purified and identified a novel degrading enzyme, N-acyl-L-amino acid amidohydrolase (AfOTase), from A. faecalis DSM 16503 via mass spectrometry. The same gene of the enzyme was also encountered in other A. faecalis strains. AfOTase belongs to peptidase family M20 and contains metal ions at the active site. In this study, recombination AfOTase was expressed and characterized in Escherichia coli. The molecular mass of recombinant rAfOTase was approximately 47.0 kDa, as determined by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). The enzyme exhibited a wide temperature range (30–70 °C) and pH adaptation (4.5–9.0) and the optimal temperature and pH were 50 °C and 6.5, respectively.
Development of an UPLC-MS/MS Method for the Analysis of Mycotoxins in Rumen Fluid with and without Maize Silage Emphasizes the Importance of Using Matrix-Matched Calibration

Published: September 2019

Ruminants are less susceptible to the effects of mycotoxins than monogastric animals as their rumen microbiota are claimed to degrade and/or deactivate at least some of these toxic compounds. However, the mycotoxin degradation is not well-known yet. For this, a sensitive, specific, and accurate analytical method is needed to determine mycotoxins in the rumen fluid. This study aims to develop and thoroughly validate an ultra-performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry method for the quantitative determination in the rumen fluid of some of the most relevant mycotoxins found in maize silage in Western Europe: deoxynivalenol (DON), nivalenol (NIV), zearalenone (ZEN), mycophenolic acid (MPA), roquefortine C (ROQ-C) and enniatin B (ENN B), as well as their metabolites deepoxy-deoxynivalenol (DOM-1), α-zearalenol (α-ZEL), β-zearalenol (β-ZEL), zearalanone (ZAN), α-zearalanol (α-ZAL) and β-zearalanol (β-ZAL). As feed is often present in the rumen fluid samples, the potential interaction of feed particles with the mycotoxin extraction and analysis was investigated. Extraction recovery and matrix effects were determined in the rumen fluid with and without maize silage. Differences in those parameters between rumen fluid alone and rumen fluid with maize silage highlight the importance of using matrix-matched calibration curves for the quantification of mycotoxins in rumen fluid samples. A cross-validation of the method with rumen fluid and maize silage demonstrates that this analytical method can be applied in research on rumen fluid samples to investigate the degradation of the reported mycotoxins by rumen microbiota if matrix-matched calibration is performed.
The Histone Deacetylases HosA and HdaA Affect the Phenotype and Transcriptomic and Metabolic Profiles of Aspergillus niger
Authors: Li Xuejie , Pan Lijie , Wang Bin , Pan Li
Published: September 2019

Histone acetylation is an important modification for the regulation of chromatin accessibility and is controlled by two kinds of histone-modifying enzymes: histone acetyltransferases (HATs) and histone deacetylases (HDACs). In filamentous fungi, there is increasing evidence that HATs and HDACs are critical factors related to mycelial growth, stress response, pathogenicity and production of secondary metabolites (SMs). In this study, seven A. niger histone deacetylase-deficient strains were constructed to investigate their effects on the strain growth phenotype as well as the transcriptomic and metabolic profiles of secondary metabolic pathways. Phenotypic analysis showed that deletion of hosA in A. niger FGSC A1279 leads to a significant reduction in growth, pigment production, sporulation and stress resistance, and deletion of hdaA leads to an increase in pigment production in liquid CD medium. According to the metabolomic analysis, the production of the well-known secondary metabolite fumonisin was reduced in both the hosA and hdaA mutants, and the production of kojic acid was reduced in the hdaA mutant and slightly increased in the hosA mutant. Results suggested that the histone deacetylases HosA and HdaA play a role in development and SM biosynthesis in A. niger FGSC A1279. Histone deacetylases offer new strategies for regulation of SM synthesis.
Modifying Phosphate Toxicity in Chronic Kidney Disease
Authors: Vervloet Marc
Published: September 2019

Phosphate toxicity is a well-established phenomenon, especially in chronic kidney disease (CKD), where hyperphosphatemia is a frequent occurrence when CKD is advanced. Many therapeutic efforts are targeted at phosphate, and comprise dietary intervention, modifying dialysis schemes, treating uncontrolled hyperparathyroidism and importantly, phosphate binder therapy. Despite all these interventions, hyperphosphatemia persists in many, and its pathological influence is ongoing. In nephrological care, a somewhat neglected aspect of treatment—when attempts fail to lower exposure to a toxin like phosphate—is to explore the possibility of “anti-dotes”. Indeed, quite a long list of factors modify, or are mediators of phosphate toxicity. Addressing these, especially when phosphate itself cannot be sufficiently controlled, may provide additional protection. In this narrative overview, several factors are discussed that may qualify as either such a modifier or mediator, that can be influenced by other means than simply lowering phosphate exposure. A wider scope when targeting phosphate-induced comorbidity in CKD, in particular cardiovascular disease, may alleviate the burden of disease that is the consequence of this potentially toxic mineral in CKD.

In order to expand hepatitis C virus (HCV) screening, a change in the diagnostic paradigm is warranted to improve accessibility and decrease costs, such as utilizing dried blood spot (DBS) collection. In our study, blood from 68 patients with chronic HCV infection was spotted onto DBS cards and stored at the following temperatures for one week: −80 °C, 4 °C, 21 °C, 37 °C, and alternating 37 °C and 4 °C; to assess whether temperature change during transportation would affect sensitivity. Sample was eluted from the DBS cards and tested for HCV antibodies (HCV-Ab) and HCV core antigen (core-Ag). HCV-Abs were detected from 68/68 DBS samples at −80 °C, 4 °C, 21 °C, and 67/68 at 37 °C and alternating 37 °C and 4 °C. Sensitivity of core-Ag was as follows: 94% (−80 °C), 94% (4 °C), 91% (21 °C), 93% (37 °C), and 93% (37 °C/4 °C). Not only did temperature not greatly affect sensitivity, but sensitivities are higher than previously reported, and support the use of this assay as an alternative to HCV RNA. We then completed a head-to-head comparison (n = 49) of venous versus capillary samples, and one versus two DBS. No difference in core-Ag sensitivity was observed by sample type, but there was an improvement when using two spots. We conclude that HCV-Abs and core-Ag testing from DBS cards has high diagnostic accuracy and could be considered as an alternative to HCV RNA in certain settings.

Lettuce is often implicated in human norovirus (HuNoV) foodborne outbreaks. We identified H-like histo-blood group antigens (HBGAs) on lettuce leaves as specific binding moieties for virus-like particles (VLPs) of HuNoV GII.4/HS194/2009 strain. The objective of this study was to determine whether HuNoV-lettuce binding is mediated through the virus HBGA binding sites (HBS). Toward this objective, VLPs of historical HuNoV GII.4 strains (1987, 1997, 2002, 2004 and 2006) with known natural mutations in their HBS, two newly generated VLP mutants of GII.4/HS194/2009 (D374A and G443A) and a VLP mutant (W375A) of GI.1/Norwalk/1968 along with its wild type VLPs, which displays distinct HBS, were investigated for their binding to lettuce. ELISA revealed that historical GII.4 strains binding to lettuce was dependent on their HBGAs profiles. The VLP mutants D374A and G443A lost binding to HBGAs and displayed no to minimal binding to lettuce, respectively. The VLPs of GI.1/Norwalk/1968 strain bound to lettuce through an H-like HBGA and the binding was inhibited by fucosidase digestion. Mutant W375A which was previously shown not to bind to HBGAs, displayed significantly reduced binding to lettuce. We conclude that the binding of HuNoV GII.4 and GI.1 strains to lettuce is mediated through the virus HBS.

Published: September 2019

Rift Valley fever virus (RVFV) is a mosquito-borne phlebovirus that represents as a serious health threat to both domestic animals and humans. The viral protein NSs is the key virulence factor of RVFV, and has been proposed that NSs nuclear filament formation is critical for its virulence. However, the detailed mechanisms are currently unclear. Here, we generated a T7 RNA polymerase-driven RVFV reverse genetics system based on a strain imported into China (BJ01). Several NSs mutations (T1, T3 and T4) were introduced into the system for investigating the correlation between NSs filament formation and virulence in vivo. The NSs T1 mutant showed distinct NSs filament in the nuclei of infected cells, the T3 mutant diffusively localized in the cytoplasm and the T4 mutant showed fragmented nuclear filament formation. Infection of BALB/c mice with these NSs mutant viruses revealed that the in vivo virulence was severely compromised for all three NSs mutants, including the T1 mutant. This suggests that NSs filament formation is not directly correlated with RVFV virulence in vivo. Results from this study not only shed new light on the virulence mechanism of RVFV NSs but also provided tools for future in-depth investigations of RVFV pathogenesis and anti-RVFV drug screening.

Published: September 2019

Climate change has unchained several natural extreme phenomena, including a major frequency and intensity of flooding episodes. From these, the ones of greatest importance are those which endanger human settlements as well as socioeconomic activities. This is the case of Tamuín city, settled in the shore of Tampaón River, in Mexico. In this work, we performed a detailed numerical modelling of the hydrodynamics of the zone, considering in situ topographic and bathymetric data as well as hydrodynamic parameters. Severe rainfall scenarios were simulated in order to determine the zones which are prone to flooding, as well as the potential periods of time between the beginning of the rainfall up to the flooding, considering the potential effects of climate change in the precipitation rate. The outcome of this research will help local governments undertake preventive actions to reinforce the identified risky zones, thus providing an adequate protection of rural and urban zones, as well as their inhabitants and their economical activities from current and future floods, considering potential climate change effects.

Published: September 2019

Bacterial communities play essential roles in multiple ecological processes, such as primary production and nutrient recycling in aquatic systems. However, although the composition, diversity and function of bacterial communities have been well studied, little is known about the interactions and co-occurrence characteristics of these communities, let alone their seasonal patterns. To investigate the seasonal variations of bacterial community interactions, we collected water samples from four seasons in Lake Taihu and applied network analysis to reveal bacterial community interactions. Bacterial community networks were non-random in structure, and interactions among bacterial taxa in the networks varied markedly in different seasons. The autumnal bacterial network was the largest and most complex among obtained networks, whereas the spring correlation network was the simplest, having no module hubs or connectors. The important species of the networks were the dominant bacterial phyla/classes (e.g., Alphaproteobacteria and Bacteroidetes), although their relative abundance varied among seasons. The relationships between species and measured environmental variables changed over seasons; fewer environmental factors were correlated with bacterial species in the spring bacterial network, while we observed a greater number of species-environment correlations in the winter network. Our study highlights the seasonal differences in bacterial community interactions and expands our understanding of freshwater microbial ecology in systems affected by aquaculture.
Smooth Open Channel with Increasing Aspect Ratio: Influence on Secondary Flow
Authors: Jing Siyu , Yang Wenjun , Chen Yue
Published: September 2019

A high-resolution particle image velocitmetry system is used to investigate the relationship between secondary flow and aspect ratio in a straight channel. Considering the symmetry of open channel flow, the flow parameters in half of the flume are measured. Since the variation of the aspect ratio has a direct impact on the intensity and structure of secondary flows, this study was conducted in a smooth open channel to study the influence of aspect ratio on the structure and strength of secondary flows with aspect ratio change from 3 to 7.5 under supercritical flow condition. Profiles and contour-maps of time-averaged stream-wise and vertical velocities were acquired using precise measuring instruments. The results show that there are several secondary flow cells in the cross section, and their structure affects the velocity distribution and energy distribution, which makes the velocity distribution deviate from the traditional logarithmic distribution, and the maximum velocity occur below the surface. The flow intensity of secondary flows is different under different aspect ratios. Results show great agreement with classical theory.
Crítica cinematográfica na Bahia do século XX: os olhares de Walter da Silveira e André Setaro sobre a relação entre cinema e sociedade
Authors: Lessa Rodrigo Oliveira , Bispo Bruno Vilas Boas , Cerqueira Filipe Santos Baqueiro
Published: September 2019

Ao buscar uma mediação entre as obras o público, a crítica de arte tem como uma de suas características avaliar o modo como a poética de cada obra é capaz de sustentar o esforço criativo presente em sua proposta. Todavia, ela também pode analisar de que maneira cada produção se associa à história desta expressão artística e, em última instância, situá-la no sistema geral da cultura, sobretudo ao associar sua linguagem a uma série de elementos estéticos e não-estéticos. Como entusiastas do cinema no cenário baiano do séc XX., Walter da Silveira (1915-1970) e André Setaro (1950-2014) marcam duas gerações de críticos que conduziram sua relação com os filmes nestes termos, enriquecendo o juízo de valor e o exame dos filmes com elementos históricos, estéticos e culturais que terminaram lhes permitindo esboçar uma teoria do cinema bastante peculiar. Através de uma revisão desta crítica cinematográfica, este ensaio busca destacar alguns dos elementos fundamentais desta construção, aprofundando-se sobre o modo a análise fílmica empreendida por cada um deles os conduziu a uma problematização do filme como expressão artística e cultural no cenário da crítica cinematográfica baiana do século XX.
A disputa sobre os quadrinhos: infância, arte e censura na imprensa brasileira
Authors: Von Kulitz Layssa Bauer
Published: September 2019

A 1ª Exposição Internacional de Histórias em Quadrinhos, inaugurada dia 18 de junho de 1951 no Centro Cultura e Progresso, em São Paulo, foi pioneira em sua tentativa de promover os quadrinhos à condição de linguagem artística, em paridade com o cinema e a literatura. Ao expor painéis originais que traçavam paralelos entre os quadrinhos, chamada “arte sequencial”, e essas outras formas de mídia, os organizadores, Álvaro de Moya, Jayme Cortez, Syllas Roberg, Reinaldo de Oliveira e Miguel Penteado, engendraram um vigoroso debate acerca do papel formador das histórias em quadrinhos e, mais ainda, dos tênues limiares que separam o que pode vir a ser, ou não, arte. A posição ocupada pelos quadrinhos na imprensa brasileira vinha sendo alargada desde os anos 1940, sendo elas, para além de um passatempo, o objeto de um fragmentário debate público dentro os jornais, do qual a 1ª Exposição Internacional de Histórias em Quadrinhos surgiu como resposta. O acometimento, por um lado, em reiterar os atributos educacionais e lúdicos dos quadrinhos era continuamente freado pela reprimenda de grupos contrários às suas “influências desvirtuantes” e seus “ruidosos efeitos sobre a juventude”. A disputa em favor da consagração das histórias em quadrinhos, por um lado, e em favor da sua censura, por outro, foi a manifestação última de grupos e de projetos bastante distintos, cada qual com imagens bem específicas do que a arte deve ser. A recuperação desse registro, documentado predominantemente por periódicos cariocas e paulistas, passa a ser, então, uma chave para pensar em como o aporte do jornal moderou ricos encontros entre diferentes obras, pessoas e ideias, colocando adiante questionamentos e soluções.

Impact of Faculty Student Rapport on Classroom Environment
Authors: Thakur Deeksha , Shri Charu , A.K. Vij
Published: September 2019

Rapport-building is a well-known construct and so is Classroom Environment (CRE). Faculty-student rapport (FSR) in higher education is perceived to enhance motivational level, comfort level, communication and eventually learning. Connecting with students also leads to better student engagement in the learning process. A lot has been said about faculty-student rapport by theoreticians however research needs to measure its impact empirically. This research paper measures impact of FSR on CRE in the institutions imparting management and engineering education in NCR, India. Objective of this paper is to establish whether a positive correlation exists between FSR and CRE. Other objectives of this paper are to evaluate if stream of education (engineering/management) and gender of teacher have significant impact on FSR. Data was collected from 800 students from private institutions of National Capital Region (NCR), India using Professor-Student Rapport Scale and The College and University Classroom Environment Inventory (CUCEI) questionnaire. The impact of FSR on CRE has been measured through Pearson Correlation. The impact of stream of education (engineering/management) and gender of teacher on FSR have been measured through T-test. This research paper primarily measures student perception. Pearson correlation on this data size of 800 affirmed that there exists a positive correlation between Faculty-student rapport and Classroom Environment. T-tests determined that stream of education does not impact FSR whereas gender of the teacher impacts FSR. Previous research has shown mixed results that FSR impacts student achievement. This does not mean that FSR should be neglected or given less importance. Faculty-student rapport impacts Classroom Environment and hence should be considered and maintained in higher education.
The Employment Continuum: A Framework for Hiring People with Disabilities in Dubai, UAE
Authors: Xie Guohui , Erin Camulli Jennifer
Published: September 2019

Globally, people with disabilities (PWD) face enormous barriers to securing decent and sustainable employment in the workforce. Quota systems to counter this have been enacted in some countries and yielded some successful results. There is risk, however, of token employment within a quota program in the absence of a structured assessment/evaluation protocol. The authors of this paper propose a comprehensive inclusive employment framework, The Employment Continuum, for employment of PWD in Dubai, United Arab Emirates (UAE) as a measure to temper ableist practices and address the need for assessment/evaluation protocol of PWD as well as an appraisal of the employer and workplace to ensure accessible and sustainable employment.

and Hartree–Fock methods (HF) with the 6-311G(d) and 3-21G basis sets. Also, the
determination of FT-IR values was used the veda4f software program. The UV-vis
data (ethanol) were calculated and all spectral parameters were compared with
experimental data.
NİĞDE’DE PAZARCI KADINLARIN TOPLUMSAL DURUMLARI ÜZERİNE BİR ARAŞTIRMA
Authors: GEÇGİN Ercan
Published: September 2019

Bu
çalışma, Niğde merkezde haftalık olarak kurulan iki pazarda satıcılık yapan
kadınlar üzerinedir. Pazarlardan biri perşembe, diğeri cumartesi günleri
kurulmaktadır. Çalışma, nitel araştırma yöntemine göre gerçekleştirilen saha
çalışmasına dayanmaktadır. Çalışmanın amacı; pazarda ürünlerini satan
kadınların ekonomik hayat içindeki konumlarının nasıl olduğunu, pazardaki
ilişkilerinin onlara sosyal güç kazandırıp kazandırmadığını, sosyal
statülerinde bir değişime neden olup olmadığını keşfetmektir. Araştırmada,
kadınların çoğunun pazarcılığa erken yaşta başladıkları görülmüştür. Görüşme
yapılan kadınların çoğunluğu için pazarcılık temel geçim kaynağıdır. Pazar
yerinde kadınlar genel olarak yakın akrabalarıyla birlikte çalışmaktadırlar.
Akrabalık ve tanışıklık, kadınlar için önemli sosyal sermaye kaynaklarından
biridir. Ayrıca kadınlar hane içi emek ilişkilerinin önemli bir parçasıdırlar.
Elde edilen kazançları hanenin ortak hesabına dâhil edilmektedir. Ürünün
pazarlamasında ve sunulmasında kadınların giyim tarzları, kullandıkları diller
gibi simgesel sermayeler müşterilerle ilişkilerde önemli araçlar
olabilmektedir. Pazarcılık kadınların güçlenmesine olumlu katkılar
sunabilmektedir. Diğer taraftan kadınlar, hane içi emek sürecinden
kurtulamamaktadırlar ve çoğunlukla ticari ilişkilerin denetiminden
yoksundurlar. Ayrıca kadınlar için tezgâhtarlığın ötesine geçmelerinde birtakım
toplumsal ve kültürel engeller bulunmaktadır.
Bizans El Yazmaları Çalışmalarının Tarihsel Süreci ve “Bizans El Yazmaları Bibliyografyası” Çevrimiçi Veri Tabanı Çalışması
Authors: SERDAR DİNÇER Pınar
Published: September 2019

El yazmaları; renkli resimlemeleri ve altın bezemeli yazılarıyla, maddi ve estetik özellikleri ile sadece koleksiyoncuların değil, içerdikleri metinler nedeniyle sosyal bilimcilerin de ilgili çekmiştir. Bizans döneminde üretilen el yazmaları araştırmaları 19. yüzyıldan bu yana Bizans çalışmalarının ana konularından biri olmuştur. Çalışmanın ilk bölümünde 19. yüzyıldan günümüze kadar olan yayınlar konu bütünlüğü dikkate alınarak irdelenmiştir. Günümüzde bile yeni el yazmaları keşfetme çabaları devam ederken el yazmalarının, sadece maddi değerleri için değil, tarihi ve sosyal hayata dair bilgileri gün yüzüne çıkardıkları için de araştırmacılar tarafından çalışıldıkları görülmektedir. Bizans el yazmaları konulu artan bilimsel çıktının bir sonucu olarak, özel bir kaynakçaya ihtiyaç olduğu açıktır. Çalışmanın ikinci bölümünde ise bu ihtiyacı karşılamak amacıyla Yozgat Bozok Üniversitesi'nin Bilimsel Araştırmalar Projesi desteğiyle yapılan “Bizans El Yazmaları Bibliyografyası” (http://byzantinemanuscript.bozok.edu.tr/) çevrimiçi veri tabanı çalışması tanıtılmıştır.
Toplumsalın Doğallaştırılması: Erken Evliliklerde Toplumsal Cinsiyet Algısı
Authors: TUNA UYSAL Meyrem , TAN EREN Gizem , ŞİMŞEK Esma
Published: September 2019

Ataerkillik ve geleneksel toplum yapısı erken
yaşta evlilikleri meşru hale getiren bir zihniyetin ürünüdür. Bu zihniyetin bir
ürünü olan erken evliliklerle birlikte kadın-erkek arasında eşit olmayan ilişkiler
ortaya çıkmakta ve kadına yönelik bakış açısından kaynaklı bu eşitsizlik daha
da artmaktadır. Özellikle erken evliliklere erkek çocuklarına nazaran daha çok
kız çocuklarının maruz kalması bu durumun en önemli göstergelerinden biridir.
Araştırma, erken evlilik yapan kadınların toplumsal cinsiyet algısını ele
almaktadır. Araştırmanın amacı, 18 yaşından küçük evlilik gerçekleştiren kadınların
ifadelerinden hareketle erken evliliğe ilişkin toplumsal cinsiyet rollerinin
nasıl kurgulandığını, evliliklerinde yaşadıkları zorlukları, evlilik
beklentilerini, rol paylaşımı sırasında yaşanan toplumsal cinsiyet
eşitsizliğinin neler olduğunu diğer bir deyişle toplumsal cinsiyet algısını
ortaya koymaktır. Buradan hareketle araştırma, Ağrı ilinde 15 kadın katılımcı
ile yarı-yapılandırılmış bir görüşme formu kullanılarak ve derinlemesine
görüşmeler yapılarak gerçekleştirilmiştir. Bu çerçevede araştırma erken evlilik
yapan kadınlara uygulanarak onların toplumsal cinsiyet rollerini ele alması
bakımından önem taşımaktadır. Araştırma sonucunda erken evliliklerle birlikte
kadına yönelik toplumsal cinsiyet eşitsizliği daha da artmakta ve cinsiyet
rolleri bakımından ikincil konuma düşmektedir.
Autoevaluación: estrategia y componente esencial para el cambio y la mejora escolar
Authors: Román C. Marcela
Published: September 2019

Los aportes de la autoevaluación al proceso de implementación de un programa de cambio y mejora escolar se constituyen en el propósito del artículo que se presenta. De la mano de esta mirada analítica y juicio evaluativo interno, sustentada en el modelo cipp (contexto, insumo, proceso y producto) y desde el referente de la eficacia escolar, se recorren los distintos ámbitos de intervención que estructuraron el apoyo y la asistencia técnica externa a un conjunto de escuelas urbano marginales chilenas. El objetivo fue desentrañar y valorar las importantes contribuciones que realiza este componente al proceso de innovación y cambio en sus distintos momentos y aspectos. Los resultados ofrecen un conjunto amplio y variado de modificaciones y ajustes al programa de mejora que emergen de las acciones de diagnóstico, sistematización y mediciones del rendimiento escolar, que estructuraron la autoevaluación realizada. Sus resultados ratifican la centralidad y relevancia de contar con información oportuna, válida y confiable sobre el comportamiento del rendimiento, así como de los principales factores de eficacia, para poder reorientar acciones, fortalecer o diversificar estrategias o bien ajustar o modificar metas. Las posibilidades de que los estudiantes aprendan más y mejoren sus desempeños se ven incrementadas cuando los programas de mejora incorporan como parte de su estructura un componente de autoevaluación, desde donde se analice, discuta, critique, evalúe y retroalimente la propia intervención, sus avances y sus pendientes.
CHRISTUS PATIENS: DEVOÇÃO E FASCINAÇÃO PELO DEUS VIOLENTADO
Authors: Mendonça - FAEPI Jones Faria
Published: September 2019

A morte violenta de um judeu carismático no primeiro século é vista por uma multidão de cristãos ao redor do mundo como evento central da sua fé. Embora as Escrituras e a teologia cristã posterior tenham se esforçado em converter a execução deste judeu em expressão de triunfo, a arte e a literatura religiosa que floresceram a partir do século XI passaram a valorizar o aspecto negativo dessa morte, destacando Cristo como homem de dores, como corpo dilacerado entregue voluntariamente à morte. Este artigo busca apresentar as raízes teológicas desse tipo de devoção, algumas de suas manifestações na arte e na literatura cristã, e elementos que demonstram o fascínio e devoção que o flagelo de Cristo ainda desperta nos cristãos do mundo moderno
Da violência contra a Bíblia: a tradução de Sl 53,6
Authors: Ribeiro - UNIDA Osvaldo Luiz
Published: September 2019

O artigo relaciona o conceito de violência ao de tradução irregular da Bíblia Hebraica. Nesse sentido, traduções ideologicamente comprometidas, com implicações inclusive gramaticais, são tratadas como casos de violência contra a Bíblia. Para a demonstração, analisam-se traduções de Sl 53,6 em versões nacionais, comparando-as diretamente com o texto hebraico e tradução do pesquisador. Conclui-se que o que pode ser interpretado como dificuldades na compreensão do texto resultam na desconsiederação dos termos constantes no texto em tradução. O resultado é uma tradução que, na prática, impede que o leitor das versões possa, por ele mesmo, compreender o que o texto hebraico supostamente traduzido pretendia dizer.
DO ATEÍSMO AO NEO-ATEÍSMO: UMA BREVE RETROSPECTIVA HISTÓRICA E SUAS IMPLICAÇÕES NA SOCIEDADE ATUAL
Authors: Cardoso - UNIDA Marcelo Ferreira , Calixto - UNIDA José
Published: September 2019

Resumo: É inegável o significativo crescimento do número de pessoas que atualmente se declaram ateias ou agnósticas no mundo. Este fenômeno sociorreligioso tem levado pesquisadores, religiosos ou simplesmente aqueles que se interessam pelo tema a questionar o porquê de tal fato. Destarte, especialistas têm afirmado que boa parte se deve ao desenvolvimento de uma forma de ateísmo beligerante chamado de neo-ateísmo, cuja principal mensagem é marcada pelo incentivo a saída da obscuridade por parte daqueles que hoje questionam a existência de Deus, os chamados ateus, e se opõe a qualquer tipo de crença ou fé. Este artigo se propõe a fazer uma breve retrospectiva histórica do ateísmo e analisar a influência que o neo-ateísmo exerce no crescimento de seus simpatizantes e seguidores hoje.

Published: September 2019

RESUMOA polissemia, na contemporaneidade, representa uma multiplicidade de significados de uma palavra sejam estas sob os níveis culturais, sociais, políticas e religiosas, formando o ethos humanus de cada indivíduo. Entretanto devido ao constante dinamismo que o homem moderno possui em seu modus vivendi, isso faz com ele esteja mais propício aos desgastes mentais e físicos, surgindo doenças tais como o Estresse e a doença de Burnout. No meio eclesiástico, tais doenças incidem cada vez mais, principalmente entre os líderes das igrejas (pastores), por conta das diferentes demandas aos atendimentos sejam estes pessoais e/ou familiares em seus respectivos ambientes laborais. Logo este artigo tem por objetivo suscitar os motivos que levam os líderes religiosos (Pastores) a sofrem de Estresse e da Síndrome de Burnout, bem como examinar quais as causas que esses males possam ocasionar a esses líderes religiosos, sugerindo, também, as possíveis prevenções e curas a essas patologias quanto às suas consequências sistêmicas.    Polysemy, in contemporaneity, represents a multiplicity of meanings of a word be these under the cultural, social, political and religious levels, forming the ethos humanus of each individual. However due to the constant dynamism that modern man possesses in his modus vivendi, this makes him more susceptible to mental and physical wear and tear, with diseases such as Stress and Burnout. In the ecclesiastical environment, such diseases are increasingly affecting, especially among the leaders of the churches (pastors), because of the different demands on the attendants, whether these are personal and / or family members in their respective work environments. The purpose of this article is to elicit the reasons that lead religious leaders (Pastors) to suffer from Stress and Burnout Syndrome, as well as to examine the causes that these evils may cause to these religious leaders, suggesting the possible preventions and cures to these pathologies as to their systemic consequences.
A IMAGEM DE DEUS NO TEXTO MOISÉS E O MONOTEÍSMO
Authors: Pereira - UNIDA André
Published: September 2019

Esse artigo propõe analisar como Freud descreve a imagem de Deus em seu texto “Moisés e o Monoteísmo’’. O Pai da Psicanálise admite ter tido fortes influências do antissemitismo que estava petrificado na sociedade alemã da época. A relação com o seu pai o afetou profundamente, e suas descrições a respeito de Deus conferem, em certo sentido, com a imagem que o psicanalista tinha do pai. Esse texto tentará verificar tal preemissa a partir daquilo que Freud pensa sobre a religião monoteísta e o Mito em que se baseia o judaísmo, fazendo, portanto, a construção de Deus e a influencia desse pensamento para a sua relação paterna.

A INTOLERÂNCIA RELIGIOSA EM RELAÇÃO ÀS RELIGIÕES AFRO-BRASILEIRAS: UMA REALIDADE NO CENÁRIO ESCOLAR BRASILEIRO
Authors: Gomes Jaqueline de Souza
Published: September 2019

O Brasil se apresenta ao mundo como um Estado laico, onde as muitas religiões e suas denominações convivem harmonicamente, e os fiéis manifestam suas crenças, sem que ocorra discriminação. Essa colocação, contudo, não corresponde à realidade, quando o cenário são as instituições escolares, vistas como microcosmos da sociedade, pela diversidade dos grupos sociais representados nas salas de aula desse imenso país. O presente artigo, ao priorizar como tema de suas análises a intolerância religiosa com as crianças e jovens cuja religiosidade foi construída nos terreiros e espaços das religiões afro-brasileiras, tenta discutir por meio de revisão da literatura, a discriminação que esses alunos vivenciam no cotidiano das escolas, apesar da legislação brasileira regulamentar em todas as instâncias o direito de credo e a liberdade religiosa.
