Creando espacios de cultura inclusiva e igualitaria en el Museo Nacional del Prado: el proyecto “Sui géneris. Arte, publicidad y estereotipos”
Authors: Ugena Candel Tania , González D´ Ambrosio Santiago
Published: June 2022

Este artículo presenta el proyecto Sui Géneris. Arte, publicidad y estereotipos, diseñado y llevado a cabo desde octubre de 2019 por el Área de Educación del Museo Nacional del Prado, en el marco del programa El Prado para todos.

Se trata de una actividad dirigida a colectivos de personas con diversidad funcional intelectual y psíquica, que persigue el objetivo de crear conciencia y visibilizar -a través de algunas obras de la colección permanente- el modo en el que el arte crea y difunde determinados estereotipos de género que perpetúan situaciones de opresión y violencia.

El diálogo entre las obras del Museo y algunas campañas publicitarias actuales propicia la reflexión en el seno de los grupos participantes, al evidenciarse que en pleno siglo XXI se mantienen intactas las estructuras de pensamiento y condicionamiento de género preponderantes en siglos pasados.

Con esta propuesta, el Museo del Prado pretende colaborar en el abordaje integral de una problemática que afecta a toda la sociedad, apoyando la construcción de identidades de género más flexibles, ricas y diversas.
El programa QuidArte del Museo Universidad de Navarra: el arte al servicio del bienestar y el cuidado en el contexto de la pandemia Covid-19
Authors: Echarri Fernando
Published: June 2022

El contexto social que ha generado la pandemia Covid-19 está caracterizado por la aparición de situaciones continuadas de sufrimiento personal, miedo y aislamiento que pueden generar diversos grados de estrés, angustia y estados de ánimo negativos que repercuten en una disminución del bienestar de las personas. Frente a esta situación, los diferentes equipamientos sociales necesitan responder, con una perspectiva de ayuda para las personas. Estos equipamientos, como los museos, pueden desempeñar un papel activo, constituyéndose en generadores de propuestas que ayuden a minimizar esta terrible situación. Los museos también pueden focalizarse en proporcionar más cuidado que redunde en la generación de bienestar en la población que desencadene una reducción del estrés y de la ansiedad. El Museo Universidad de Navarra, consciente de la gravedad de la pandemia y del papel que el arte puede desempeñar para paliar sus consecuencias, dando así un servicio a la comunidad, ha creado un programa específico con la intención de proporcionar cuidado, bienestar y reducción del estrés: el programa QuidArte. Con esta intención se ha programado un amplio abanico de propuestas artísticas: conciertos, espectáculos de danza, teatro, talleres y conferencias que utilizan, de forma interdisciplinar y creativa, tanto las artes plásticas como las artes escénicas.
Nuevas socializaciones de género en la infancia. Una investigación con niñas, niños y adolescentes trans en México
Authors: Freitez Diez Marina
Published: June 2022

El artículo estudia la socialización de género durante la infancia y la identificación en niñas, niños y adolescentes trans, mediante procesos concretos, bajo una propuesta innovadora, a partir, principalmente, de una aproximación etnográfica en México. Niñas, niños y adolescentes trans están sujetos a las fuerzas de socialización de género, a veces contradictorias, en la red de relaciones de interdependencia entre los ámbitos donde se desarrollan: escolar, familiar (espacios de socializaciones primarias tradicionalmente entendidos como cruciales), espacios clínicos, grupos de pares, así como en espacios en línea. Estas socializaciones pueden competir o complementarse entre sí. La posición de infancia y la dependencia que significa de la familia la mantienen como un agente que facilita o constriñe de manera importante el desarrollo identitario de las y los adolescentes. Sin embargo, nuevos espacios de socialización, como las redes sociales virtuales, compiten con o pueden contradecir socializaciones en espacios primarios y socializaciones en otros grupos de pares. El texto muestra las tensiones entre las constricciones a las que están sometidas niñas, niños y adolescentes de acuerdo a cómo los estilos, comportamientos y disposiciones de los padres socializan su comportamiento, y cómo los comportamientos no esperados de las/os hijas/os resocializan a los padres y otros espacios sociales donde se desarrollan.

Metabolomics is a systems approach in medical research that aims to quantitatively analyze small molecules (less than 1500 Da) in a given biospecimen. Improvement in analytical technologies enabled metabolic research in various fields of medicine including oncology. Metabolic reprogramming is a firmly established hallmark of cancer. It includes changes in tumor cells and in the stromal cells as well. In this review, we focus on metabolomics in the field of cancer research. In the first part, we discuss the main technical approaches. In the second part, we address altered cancer metabolism and additional roles of some metabolites besides energetic and structural roles.
Haunted Thailand: The Village as a Location of Thai Horror
Authors: Chutikamoltham Chanokporn
Published: June 2022

In Thailand, the concept of the village has been used to imagine the Thai nation and perceive Thai identity. The discourse of the village has been romanticised based upon a socio-political impetus. This paper argues that the romanticised village discourse is repressive and reductive, in the sense that it creates expectations that might not fit with social reality; that the imagination of the peaceful village encourages forced homogeneity; and that the imagination of the pure rustic village bars the village from material progress. The paper contends that the discourse of the Thai village creates cultural anxiety that is well reflected in horror films, based on an analysis of Ban phi pob [Village of the phi pob] (Saiyon Srisawat, 1989) and Phi hua khat [Headless Hero] (Khomsan Triphong, 2002) as responses to the two intense movements of the romanticised village discourse.
Lost and Found: The Found Footage Phenomenon and Southeast Asian Supernatural Horror Film
Authors: Ancuta Katarzyna
Published: June 2022

This article offers a brief historical and theoretical overview of found footage films and their contribution to the horror genre, and focuses in more detail on four Southeast Asian productions of the kind made between 2009-2012: Keramat/Sacred (Servia & Tiwa, 2009), Seru/Resurrection (Asraff, Pillai, Andre & Jin 2011), Haunted Changi (Kern, Woo & Lau, 2010), and Darkest Night (Tan, 2012), all of which can be viewed as an alternative to the mainstream local horror cinema. The paper argues that the two most common strategies used by found footage horror films (including the four films in question) are the techniques that effectively authenticate the horror experience: inducing a heightened perception of realism in the audience and a contradictory to it feeling of perceptive subjectivity.

Published: June 2022

The purpose of this study was to optimize a real-time PCR-melting analysis for reliable and economical detection of the 7.5 Kb mutant insert of the BoERVK bovine transposable element in exon 5 of the Apolipoprotein B (APOB) gene, which causes cholesterol deficiency — CD — (OMIA 001965-9913). This technique was also used to perform a preliminary molecular screening to detect this mutation in a DNA sample of Holstein Friesian cows (HFc) of six commercial dairy farms from different regions of Uruguay. By amplifying the 170 and 146 bp PCR products, two genotypes were clearly identified: homozygote (wild type wt/wt) and heterozygote (carrier of the CD mutation: MUT/wt). The homozygous wt/wt genotype was detected in the representative sample of 103 HFc. It is concluded that Real-Time PCR-melting analysis is a fast, easily interpretable, low cost, and highly accurate technique for detecting this mutation, which can be implemented in genetic selection programs to prevent the spread of the disease in HFc

Sözlükler bir milletin hem hafızasını muhafaza etmekte hem de entelektüel serüvenine şahitlik etmektedir. Çünkü sözlükler zihinsel dönüşümlerin ve değişen bilimsel kaynakların istikametine göre oluşturulan temel ve öncelikli kaynaklardır. Osmanlı özelinde bu durum Batından bilimsel birikimin aktarılmak istendiği 19. yüzyılın ikinci yarısından itibaren ortaya çıkmıştır. Modernleşme sürecinin mektepleşme ve tercüme ayağında Batılı kavramlarla yüzleşmek ve bunlara Türkçe karşılıklar bulmak dönemin gerek bilim adamları gerekse entelektüelleri için kaçınılmaz olmuştu. Bütün bilim dalları için söz konusu olan bu terim problemi hazırlanan sözlükler ile aşılmaya ve ortak bir bilim dili oluşturulmaya çalışılmıştı. Bu dönemde müstakil branş sözlükleri hazırlandığı gibi bütün bilim dallarını içeren daha kapsamlı sözlükler de hazırlanmak istenmişti. Sanat terimleri söz konusu olduğunda ise her iki çalışma türünde eserler verilmişti. Böylece Osmanlının modernleşme döneminde hem kişisel hem de kurumsal tecrübeler sonucunda ciddi bir sözlük literatürü meydan geldi. Bu literatüre kurumsal olarak katkı sağlayanların başında Istılahat-ı İlmiye Encümeni gelmekteydi. Çalışmamızda encümenin bütün bilim dalları için oluşturmak istediği fakat sadece birinci cildi yayımlanabilen Kamus-ı Istılâhât-ı İlmiye’de yer alan Fransızca sanat terimleri ve dilimizdeki karşılıkları incelenmiştir.
Analysis of audio signal using various transforms for enhanced audio processing
Authors: Raj V. Arun , Dhas M. Davidson Kamala
Published: June 2022

Audio Signals are the portrayal of sounds. It changes with respect to frequencies rather than time, and it shows more information in the frequency domain. So it is much appropriate to evaluate in the frequency domain rather than the time domain. By using different transforms like DFT, DST, DCT, MDCT, Integer MDCT, the time domain audio signal can be converted into a frequency domain signal. The signal is reconstructed to analyze the features like mean square error, Signal to noise ratio, Peak signal to noise ratio between the original and reconstructed signal. Other features like energy, entropy, zero crossing rates (ZCR) were also considered for the evaluation. In this paper, different audio file formats were taken for interpretation. It includes wave file, mp3 file, m4a file, aac file, where wave file is in uncompressed format and mp3, m4a, aac are in compressed format.  These compressed files come under lossy compression.  The above-mentioned features are used for applications like music information retrieval (MIR). MIR includes onset detection, pitch detection and to measure the noise and loudness of the music.

THE OVERSHADOWING PRESENCE OF TOXIC MASCULINITY AND A CALL FOR REDUCING SEXISM IN KHALED HOSSEINI’S A THOUSAND SPLENDID SUNS
Authors: Kabir Md. Shahjahan
Published: June 2022

The nexus among toxic masculinity, sexism, and patriarchy; and women’s oppression as an upshot of these have been potential issues stirring the interest of the researchers for centuries. The researches done on Khaled Hosseini’s A Thousand Splendid Suns are not exceptional than those works. As the novel blatantly exposes the plight of womenfolk amid an excessive masculine setting, Hosseini’s covert signal towards the male characters’ poignant situation due to their toxic masculinity has been an unaddressed issue. This article aims at studying the detrimental consequences of toxic masculinity in the characters’ personal, familial, and social life showing the utter helplessness of male characters who have to comply with the stereotyped notion of gender roles of real men. Because of the male characters’ vague notion of masculinity, the relationship with their partners becomes toxic; Jalil does not get forgiveness from his daughter Mariam when he asks for and Rasheed’s life ends horribly. Demonstrating the poignant aftermaths of toxicity, the researcher calls for reducing sexism for establishing a healthy relationship where partners will have love, respect, and trust between or among themselves.

Seiring dengan perkembangan zaman yang begitu drastis pada dunia pendidikan yang akan terus  memberikan  perubahan  kepada  pola  pikir  manusia.  Pendidikan  merupakan  sebuah  sistem terbuka  yang  tidak  terlepas  dari  suatu  permasalahan,  seperti  masalah makro  yang  terjadi  secara menyeluruh  yang  dialami  hampir  semua  lembaga  pendidikan  pada  proses  pembelajarannya. Di negara-negara maju, pendidikan selain sebagai aspek konsumtif juga diyakini sebagai investasi modal manusia (human capital investment) dan menjadi “leading sector” atau salah satu sektor utama. Oleh karena perhatian pemerintahnya terhadap pembangunan sektor ini sungguh sungguh, misalnya komitmen politik anggaran sektor Pendidikan tidak kalah dengan sektor lainnya, sehingga keberhasilan investasi pendidikan berkorelasi dengan kemajuan pembangunan makronya. Diperlukan adanya pendidikan multicultural sebagai suatu pendekatan   progresif untuk melakukan transformasi pendidikan yang secara menyeluruh membongkar kekurangan dan   kegagalan dan   praktek-praktek diskriminatif dalam   proses pendidikan. Pendidikan multicultural didefinisikan tentang pendidikan keragaman budaya dalam perubahan demografis dan budaya   masyarakat  tertentu  atau   dunia secara keseluruhan. Wacana pendidikan sebagai hak mendasar setiap warga negara memang menarik untuk didiskusikan, sebab kenyataannya masih banyak warga negara yang belum dapat menikmati haknya.

DID FEAR OF MISSING OUT TRIGGER PANIC BUYING BEHAVIOR AND COGNITIVE DISSONANCE OF CONSUMERS DURING EARLY DAYS OF COVID-19 PANDEMIC? THE MEDIATING ROLE OF PANIC BUYING
Authors: Yaran Ögel İlkin
Published: June 2022

Since the breakout of Covid-19 pandemic, irrational consumer behaviors have been observed in all over the world. Drawing on the drive-reduction theory and social comparison theory, this study attempts to explain some part of these irrational behaviors on the basis of the interaction between fear of missing out, panic buying and cognitive dissonance. Fear of missing out is included in this study as an independent variable that leads to cognitive dissonance as a post-purchase behavior. Panic buying is included as mediator variable in suggested model. Data were obtained from 465 respondents who were residents of Turkey and have stockpiled any supplies since the early days of Covid-19 pandemic. In order to test the associated links between the variables, structural equation modelling was utilized. The results reveal that fear of missing out and panic buying both have a significant positive influence on cognitive dissonance. Also, partial mediation impact of panic buying on the relationship between fear of missing out and cognitive dissonance is empirically suggested. The results also provide applicable insights to policy makers and practitioners to mitigate cognitive dissonance of consumers by calming down their fear of missing out and panic buying with a right communication strategy.
GREEN BONDS IN CLIMATE FINANCE AND FORECASTING OF CORPORATE GREEN BOND INDEX VALUE WITH ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE
Authors: Çetin Dilşad Tülgen
Published: June 2022

The effects of global climate change and increasing environmental awareness have led to an increase in the significance of climate projects and, accordingly, climate finance and green bonds. Despite the increasing significance, the fact that the price forecasting studies on green bonds are extremely scarce has been the main motivation of this study. The aim of this paper is to forecast the corporate green bond prices with the Artificial Neural Network model and to determine the predictor by addressing the conceptual framework of green bonds. For this purpose, the Multi-Layer Feedback Artificial Neural Network (MLF-ANN) model, in which S&P 500 index prices are determined as input and S&P green bond index prices as output, is designed. To determine whether the conventional bond prices are the predictor of the corporate green bonds, the S&P 500 index was used as the sole input of the forecasting model. The findings show that corporate green bond prices are forecasted with 1.13% Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE) and 98.93% Regression Determination Coefficient (R2). The results of the research provide data to maximize profits and/or minimize risk for green bond investors and market makers, while providing insight into the effectiveness of green bonds in financing climate projects for policy makers. This paper is the first study in the literature in terms of proving the effectiveness of the MLF-ANN model in forecasting corporate green bonds and revealing that conventional bonds are predictor of green bonds. Thus, it is expected that the study will shed light on future studies.
Expenditures control and performance of public health institutions: Empirical Appraisal from Nigeria
Authors: Inyang Mr. , Ochi Inyang , Ave Aquah Patricia
Published: June 2022

This study surveyed degree to which the Government control expenditure incurred, and performance of health institutions to regulate provisions of health services to the general public. The research was centered on expenditure control in the public health institutions to ensure timely rendering of health services to the masses. Other connected notions like government expenditure control and productivity processes in the public health were also appraised. The data were derived mainly from secondary sources and verbalized dialogues. A distinct element ANOVA was used to decide if there was any substantial variance in the mean values of expenditure, the reviewed real expenditure incurred, and performance in provision of health services to the people in Cross River State while the multiple linear regressions model was used to determine the cause effect of the revised real expenditure incurred and performance of health institutions of provision of health services in Cross River State. The study discovered that government real expenditure incurred and quality of performance were ineffectual; the revised actual overhead cost incurred and quantities of health services were effective while performances in the various health institutions were expressively dissimilar from their overhead cost provisions. Centered on these findings, the study suggested that: actual overhead cost should be frequently revised; the yearly expenditure provision or budget should be shared into functional areas and short periods; efficiency and effectiveness in public health expenditure usage should be measured; the management of the various health institutions should take part in overhead cost budget execution and be made answerable for its success or otherwise; and substantial adversarial variances between actual and standard performance should be quickly considered and eradicated.

Published: June 2022

The purpose of this article is to examine students’ opinions regarding English courses taken via remote learning at a private university in the city of Pasto, Colombia during the COVID-19 pandemic. To this end, the authors mentioned some important studies related to students’ satisfaction after taking remote learning lessons because these studies allow researchers, institutions, and decision-makers to propose alternative strategies to refine the teaching-learning process. Thus, an online questionnaire was applied to 127 undergraduates who studied in the different academic programs offered by the university. The method applied was mixed since the questionnaire used both closed and open-ended questions in order to collect more relevant and detailed information coming from students. After analyzing the results, the students expressed that remote learning fulfilled their expectations because it helped them to be more autonomous and develop self-efficacy.

Fe-14Mn-6Si-9Cr-5Ni (mass. %) shape memory alloy (SMA) has been developed as a commercial grade of Fe-Mn-Si based SMAs with excellent formability and corrosion resistance. Producing FeMnSiCrNi SMAs by powder metallurgy enables a better control of chemical composition and grain size. This paper discusses the variation of bending creep deformation, as a function of time, temperature and force, in the case of a powder metallurgy (PM) Fe-14Mn-6Si-9Cr-5Ni SMA with 50 % mechanically alloyed powder volume. Creep test temperatures were selected based on phase transitions determined by dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA), during heating. The results suggested the tendency of martensite plate variants to reorient along a common direction, after creep.

Ülkelerin savunma güçlerinde özellikle donanma kuvvetleri önemli bir yere sahiptir. Donanma kuvvetlerinin mihenk taşı olan denizaltılar II. Dünya Savaşı’nda ne kadar önemli bir güç olduğunu etkili bir biçimde göstermiştir. O günden günümüze denizaltılarda yapılan teknolojik gelişmeler bir hayli hız kazanmıştır. Bahsi geçen gelişmelerin en başında ise kuşkusuz tahrik sistemlerinde yapılan gelişmeler gelmektedir. Özellikle AIP (Havadan Bağımsız Tahrik) sistemlerinin kullanımı ile hızlı bir gelişim gözlenmiştir. Klasik dizel-elektrik denizaltılardan kapalı çevrimlere yakıt hücresi teknolojisine sahip denizaltılardan Stirling temelli denizaltılara kadar birçok varyant uygulanmaktadır. İsveç ve Japonya gibi gelişmiş ülkelerin donanmalarında da Stirling motor kullanımının denizaltı uygulamaları göze çarpmaktadır. Stirling motorlarının Yakıt hücrelerine kıyasla daha düşük yakıt ikmal maliyetleri ve MESMA sistemine göre daha sessiz olması başlıca avantajları olmaktadır. Ayrıca içten yanmalı motorlara kıyasla egzoz gaz atımının daha kontrollü olması tercih edilmesinin başlıca sebepleri arasında yer almaktadır. Stirling motorlarının yakın geçmişte geliştirilmesi ve NASA’ya ait radyoizitop aracında temel güç kaynağı olarak tercih edilmesi, motorun oksijene gerek duymaksızın ne kadar verimli ve bakım gereksiniminin minimum seviyede olduğunun göstergesidir. Bu makalede Stirling motorunun günümüze kadar gelen süreçte nasıl geliştirildiği ve denizaltı uygulamalarında neden tercih edildiği, avantajları ve geleceği hakkında irdelemelerde bulunulacaktır.

Apesar da água ser um recurso abundante e possuir um ciclo que permita a sua reutilização, a distribuição da água doce e potável não é uniforme, exigindo um investimento em estruturas de armazenamento e distribuição que muitas vezes são caras e inviáveis para algumas comunidades isoladas. Este artigo propõe a utilização de um dispositivo supersônico que permite a extração de água do ar atmosférico sem a utilização de partes móveis, como os atuais extratores que utilizam caros sistemas de refrigeração industrial. As análises conduzidas mostram uma grande viabilidade de extração de água do ar atmosférico através deste sistema. Em apenas 1 dia, com apenas um dispositivo, que pode ser impresso com manufatura aditiva a custos baixos, 130 litros de água podem ser extraídos da atmosfera nestas condições, podendo ser ampliado linearmente caso mais dispositivos sejam utilizados em paralelo. Ainda, energia proveniente de força humana, ou de fontes alternativas para a compressão como a solar, hídrica ou eólica podem ser utilizadas para tal feito, provando ser viável tecnicamente este dispositivo para a extração de água para o uso e o desenvolvimento sócio econômico em comunidades isoladas.
Read Dangerously: The Subversive Power of Literature in Troubled Times
Authors: EKLER Onur
Published: June 2022

Azar Nafisi’s Read Dangerously: The Subversive Power of Literature in Troubled Times is an inspiring book that brings readers out of their “comfort zone” where they read “texts that confirm [their] presuppositions and prejudices” (5). Nafisi complains that most readers avoid reading dangerously in order not to break their “comfort zone”. This, however, causes atrophy to their senses and makes them passive and indifferent to the problems of today’s world. To Nafisi, such readers don’t believe that “sky is falling till a chunk of it falls on [them]” (92). Ordinariness is what such readers suffer from. Nafisi further claims that ordinariness is the most fearsome state since ordinary people even normalize the violent deeds of totalitarian regimes. They take them for granted without questioning or raising doubts about them. They become docile bodies in the society easily conditioned to move into the predetermined spaces created by the authorities. Realizing the potential threat of routine to individual liberty in the growing totalitarianism, Nafisi urgently suggests the necessity of reading dangerously that would raise higher consciousness in readers in order to actively engage with the opposition. Through reading dangerously, she believes that readers can be carried away to a “disaster zone” which enables readers to negotiate over some critical concepts such as enemy, oppressor, and victim.

Authors: OBUZ Münife
Published: June 2022

Hükümdar sofralarından sıradan halkın masasına turşu, eski zamanlardan itibaren insanların vazgeçilmez gıdalarından biri olmuştur. Bu özelliği ile tüketim gıdaları arasında hep ön sıralarda yer almıştır. Tarihte, Türk mutfak kültürü içerisinde de turşunun oldukça müstesna bir yeri vardır. Osmanlı Devleti’nin zengin kültürel ve coğrafi yapısının çeşitliliği pek çok ürünün turşusunun yapılmasını sağlamış, böylece Türk toplumunda geniş bir turşu kültürü oluşmuştur. Toplumumuzda turşunun fazla tüketilmesinin sebebi sadece lezzeti değildir. Bu gıdanın tüketilmesinin ana sebeplerinden birisi de vücuda sağladığı faydalardır.

Osmanlı toplumunda, soğan, kebere, kavata, hıyar, patlıcan, nane, çiçek, limon, sarmısak, üzüm ve daha birçok sebzenin turşusu yapılıyordu. Bu çalışma, Osmanlı mutfak kültürünün bir parçası olan turşuya odaklanmakta, özellikle 18. yüzyıla kadar turşunun hem saray hem de halkın mutfağındaki yeri ele alınmaktadır. Bunun yanı sıra turşu çeşitleri, turşu yapımında kullanılan ürünler, turşucular, turşu esnafının sorunları, iktidarın koyduğu kurallar ve uygulamalar değerlendirilmeye gayret edilmiştir. Böylece turşunun Osmanlı mutfak kültüründeki yeri incelenerek turşu bağlamında Osmanlıların yeme alışkanlıklarına dair birkaç söz söylenmeye çalışılacaktır.
العقيدة اليزيدية تحت البحث
Authors: SOFI HAMID Ahmed
Published: June 2022

لقد مر التاريخ بمراحل عدة، واعتنق الإنسان أفكاراً وعقائد كثيرة، وتبلورت عقول البشر من خلال الأديان والعقائد والأفكار التي مرت عليه على مر الزمن، فكانت الرسالة الخاتمة لمحمد بن عبد الله صلى الله عليه وسلم بعد أن وصل البشر للنضوج العقلي الذي يؤهلهم لتقبل هذه الرسالة الخالدة. فبعد أن خبر الانسان عقائد شتى، منها سماوي، أوحى الله تعالى به إلى أنبيائه صلوات الله وسلامه عليهم، فمرت السنون وعبثت في هذه الأديان أيدي العابثين، فحرفوها وبدلوها لتوافق أهوائهم، ومنها ما هو وضعي، من نسج خيال الإنسان الذي أحس أنه بحاجة إلى آله يلتجأ إليه، فكانت هذه الحاجة الضرورية الملحة في داخل الضمير الإنساني هي التي دفعت به إلى اختراع دين من عنده، وتخيل ما لا حقيقة له، و الفطرة الإنسانية حتمت عليه أن يجد شخصاً يلتجأ إليه، وأن لا يمكن لهذا الكون أن يكون بدون خالق، ولكن الإختلاف العقائدي مع الأديان السماوية الحقة كانت في صفات وأسماء وقدرات هذا الخالق، وكذلك فان الكثير من الأديان الوضعية تحوي مفرداتها على كثير من المصطلحات المأخوذة من الأديان السماوية، فيتبين لنا أنهم أخذوها من الأديان السماوية وقاموا بتحويرها ووضعها في قالب يوافق توجهاتهم أو طبيعة مجتمعهم الذي يعيشون فيه. ومن هذه المعتقدات المعتقد اليزيدي الذي يلفه الكثير من الغموض والضبابية، ويحتاج إلى إيضاح وتفصيل وهذا ما سنتناوله في هذا البحث إن شاء الله تعالى.
