Exploring the career path barriers of women professional engineers in a South African context
Authors: Du Plessis Yvonne , Barkhuizen Nicolene
Published: May 2023

Despite various initiatives to address inequalities and barriers faced by women in engineering, it appears that once women engineers enter the workforce, they tend to leave engineering faster than their male colleagues, despite having worked so hard to qualify. The aim of this study is to explore the barriers to the career advancement of women in the engineering profession that exist despite the enforcement of labour equity, and try to determine why women engineers go into management rather than staying in the profession. The results and findings revealed various barriers, in both the professional and the psychological categories, to the advancement of women engineers in South Africa. Gender issues, a lack of training and real exposure to engineering practice, poor talent management and a lack of mentorship were the most prominent career barriers highlighted. A majority of the sample group of women engineers considered management as a career option as opposed to engineering. Recommendations on how organisations may address these barriers are made.
Factors influencing job satisfaction among public sector employees: an empirical exploration
Authors: Mafini Chengedzai
Published: May 2023

Performance problems in public sector organisations in South Africa may be partially attributed to employee-related factors, including low job satisfaction levels. This study set out to examine factors influencing the job satisfaction of employees in a South African public sector organisation. A two-section survey questionnaire was administered to 246 government employees based in the Gauteng province of South Africa. The data were analysed using descriptive statistics of the sample and factor analysis to establish the factors that contributed to the job satisfaction of public sector employees. Reliabilities were measured with the aid of Cronbachâ€™s alpha. Five underlying factors that contributed to job satisfaction, namely working conditions, ability utilisation, teamwork, creativity and autonomy were identified. Among these factors, teamwork emerged as the highest contributor to respondentsâ€™ job satisfaction. The findings suggest that to enhance employee job satisfaction levels, managers in public organisations should pay particular attention to each of the five factors identified in this study. This could be a solution to improving employee relations as well as meeting the performance challenges that currently face public organisations in South Africa.

Published: May 2023

An investigation was carried out on the effects of unsafe ergonomics practices by tractor operators in industrial companies in Zimbabwe. The survey was conducted in companies that manufacture tiles and bricks, collect waste litter using trailer-towed tractors, and construction companies. The investigation used a questionnaire to survey 15 operators in these different companies. Among other complications, Low Back Pain (LBP) affected all operators in the abovementioned industries. Other general complications noted were hand and leg pain, headaches, and chest pains. The Quality Function Deployment (QDF) important matrix indicated that investigating ergonomic effects is crucial. This paper concludes that reducing vibration and weight will provide a safer working environment for tractor operators and reduce the ergonomic effects investigated. Present ergonomic inventions and modifications must focus on producing a minitractor that dampens vibrations and improves the comfort of operator/tractor drivers.

Authors:   Economics and Finance Institute, Chechen State University, Alklychev Alklych M. , Zoidov Zafar K. ,   Market Economy Institute of RAS
Published: May 2023

Importance. Financial aspects of supporting the agricultural sector of the region as a key element of the strategy for ensuring food security of the country as a whole. Objectives. Analysis of priority areas for ensuring the economic development of agriculture in the region and determining ways to develop financial and credit relations and investment processes in the current conditions of its functioning. Methods. Theoretical provisions of the financial and credit policy in the agricultural sector of the region’s economy, taking into account the substantiation of the criteria for the economic evaluation of cultivated land through the use of a number of methods: mathematical statistics, index and economic-statistical analysis. Results. Itis substantiated that among the numerous factors that ensure the economic development of the agricultural sector, the state of resources and the very structure of the agro-economic system, including the sufficiency of resources and the existing relations in the region, both social and economic, are of paramount importance. In contrast to the interpretations put forward earlier, this definition provides for the possibility of maintaining a long-term and optimal interaction of their structural elements, including organizational, financial and production components. Conclusion. The main obstacle hindering the effective development of the agricultural sector is a combination of negative factors associated with the state of land, labor, material and technical resources, and of course, the lack of development of financial and credit relations and investment processes. There is a need for financial and organizational support for non-traditional structures of agricultural operating firms that service agricultural enterprises and that can contribute to the formation of new conditions for the functioning of the agricultural sector, the effective implementation of the economic and social tasks of the regions, as well as financial stabilization and economic growth in the agro-industrial complex.

In the era of data and the quest for data-driven decision-making, the capacity to tell stories from data is proving to be increasingly valuable. Storytelling is not only a great method displaying facts, but also an effective approach to package knowledge and information so that everyone can understand it. While numerous tools are available to produce a strong storytelling visualization at the moment, the tools' ability to be personalized by the user is almost non-exist. To determine the connection between personality and user preferences toward different visual designs, this study employs the user preferences on visual design related to the data visualization questionnaire that was used in the previous research. In this research, the data storytelling element was added; hence the questionnaire needs to be evaluated based on validity and reliability test. In this paper, the validity and reliability tests of the questionnaire will be explained thoroughly. The outcome of this test will help in producing a questionnaire that is valid and reliable for upcoming research related to the field.
Gender Inequality and Discrimination within Aotearoa New Zealand’s Criminal Justice System: Some Professional Support Workers’ Perspectives
Authors:   , Ward Meg
Published: May 2023

  

Sustainable Development Goal number five, ‘Gender Equality’ aims to achieve gender equality for all women and girls by eliminating discrimination (The United Nations, 2015a). Despite this goal, gender equality remains one of the most widespread inequalities internationally and within Aotearoa New Zealand (ANZ). Gender inequality is evident within ANZ’s criminal justice system (CJS), and this contributes to development inequalities within ANZ society. Understanding the cycle of carceral entrapment can inform more sensitive approaches to ending discrimination against women and girls and lead to more gender-equitable outcomes.

Although female-focused prison research is increasing, there remains limited literature on women’s experiences within the CJS (Gibson, 2022; Kale, 2020). Furthermore, very few studies focus on the perspectives of professionals working with incarcerated women and/or women who have been released. These workers hold insights from their years of close association with women navigating the carceral continuum. In response to this gap, this thesis draws from the experiences of these professional support workers to answer the overarching research question, “How does Aotearoa New Zealand’s criminal justice system operate to reduce discrimination, in alignment with good development policy and practice?”

To answer this question, a feminist geopolitical approach was used. Primary data was generated through storytelling interviews with eleven professional support workers around ANZ. Interviews explored what the professional support workers understood of women’s experiences within the carceral continuum and how they understood these to be related to gendered and racialised inequalities. Findings reveal that discrimination is apparent at every stage of a woman’s journey through the CJS. Dominant narratives, power imbalances and control, are key factors prohibiting ANZ’s CJS from being more gender equal.

This study shows that ANZ’s CJS could learn from international development policies and practices to better respond to gendered inequalities and reduce discrimination.

High Performance and Cycling Stability Supercapacitors Employing MnS@Polypyrrole Nanocomposites as Cathode Material
Authors: GÜLEN Mahir
Published: May 2023

In this study, MnS metal sulphide was incorporated into polypyrrole (PPy) matrix, and the fabricated nanocomposites were used for the first time as active electrode in supercapacitor (SC) architecture. MnS was obtained in a short time (15 min) via simple microwave technique, and the nanocomposite was synthesised successfully with electropolymerization of PPy in presence of MnS on nickel foam. Incorporation of MnS changed the growth mechanism of PPy, leading to increase in surface area, electrocatalytic activity and conductivity of the resulted nanocomposites. More importantly, MnS@PPy electrode exhibited a specific capacitance (Cs) of 1102 F/g which is approximately 5.6 times higher than that of the bare PPy (197 F/g). Furthermore, energy density (Ed) of the bare PPy was determined as 4.37 W/kg, by incorporation of MnS into PPy matrix the Ed value increased to 24.5 W/kg. On the other hand, after 1000 charge/discharge cycles, the cycle stability of the bare PPy remained at 72%, while MnS@PPy nanocomposite electrode is 95 %. The reasons for these improvements can be listed as; i) the increase in conductivity of nanocomposite stem from the synergistic effect between MnS and PPy, ii) the enlargement of the active surface area, iii) the increase in the ion diffusion rate, iv) the improvement of charge transfer kinetics and v) the increase in stability against volume change. In the light of the results obtained from this study, it can be said that the MnS@PPy structured nanocomposite is a promising candidate for commercialization of SC applications.

Desde seu advento, no final da década de 1960, até sua popularização recente, a internet se expandiu de tal maneira a ponto de vir sendo utilizada (e exponencialmente) para várias finalidades antes inimagináveis: realizar negociações comerciais, buscar conhecimento, conhecer pessoas, manter relacionamentos, produzir atividades de marketing pessoal, buscar diversão e, em alguns casos, promover transtornos para outras pessoas, incluindo prejuízos financeiros das vítimas. Diante desses fatos, pois, surge a necessidade de uma análise das questões jurídicas que envolvem a internet, uma vez que ela traz consequências para o mundo do Direito. A internet, ao se tornar a principal tecnologia de informação utilizada e por intermédio de terminais como o computador, o tablet e o smartphone, também trouxe a necessidade de um novo olhar sobre velhos direitos, tais como à informação, à comunicação, à liberdade de expressão e à privacidade. Para tanto, são atribuídas várias terminologias para designar o estudo do Direito sobre os problemas jurídicos que ocorrem no uso da Tecnologia da Informação, a exemplo de “direito da informática”, “direito do espaço virtual”, “direito eletrônico”, “direito digital” etc. Neste artigo pretendemos sucintamente trazer uma noção do que seja Direito Digital, termo mais amplamente utilizado para designar o estudo do Direito sobre os problemas jurídicos que ocorrem no uso da Tecnologia da Informação.

Autoimmune dysglycemia syndrome (ADS) is a rare condition that presents as episodes of hypoglycemia as well as hyperglycemia and is classified as insulin autoimmune syndrome (IAS) and type B insulin resistance (TBIR). Autoimmunity plays a key role in the pathogenesis of this disorder, as evidenced by the presence of autoantibodies against endogenous insulin or the insulin receptor, and by its association with rheumatologic disorders. Treatment usually includes glycemic control and immunomodulatory agents. We report a case of a 31-year-old woman who was admitted for severe hypoglycemia. Further workup revealed underlying systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) with renal involvement. During hospitalization, she continued to experience episodes of fasting hypoglycemia, as well as episodes of postprandial hyperglycemia. Hypoglycemia associated with a high serum insulin concentration and positive anti-insulin antibodies were consistent with IAS. Likewise, hyperglycemia and hypoglycemia in association with weight loss, acanthosis nigricans, polycystic ovarian syndrome, and normotriglyceridemia strongly suggested TBIR, although testing for antibodies against the insulin receptor was not available in Peru. Immunosuppressive therapy and metformin were indicated, resulting in remission of SLE and ADS. Years later, the patient exhibited features of dermatomyositis, such as Raynaud’s phenomenon, muscular weakness, heliotrope exanthema, and elevated muscle enzymes. Once again, the patient received immunosuppressive therapy. ADS is an infrequent cause of hypoglycemia, and the coexistence of its two pathophysiological mechanisms in a patient with SLE and subsequent development of dermatomyositis is even more rare. Our case is the first one reported describing this association.

Published: May 2023

This comprehensive study on gender and development-induced relocation examines 98 papers from the Scopus.com collection. Between June and July 2022, a search of the academic literature was conducted using a set of preliminary key words. Mendeley Desktop 1.19 has been used to expedite this electronic search. In order to minimize bias in the identification, selection, synthesis, and summary of literature, the preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analysis for protocols 2015 checklist is utilized in this study. Comparative case studies at the local project level, qualitative cross-sectional surveys, reviews, and mixed technique research are the most effective among a variety of studies carried out in various nations, even though there is no overt methodological bias. The main deprivations that displaced women suffer from more frequently than their male counterparts are a lack of access to land, housing, and employment; loss of access to public property; marginalization; a lack of capacity for making decisions; a lack of social cohesion; and unequal labor division. Because of internalized discrimination, women may find it more difficult to overcome these barriers. The authors of this study produce policy recommendations by carefully analyzing the empirical literature.

Authors: Zuhair Dardona
Published: May 2023

The pomegranate (Punica granatum) has been known for its medicinal and nutritional benefits from time immemorial and across ancient civilizations. In addition, it is a very ancient plant that has existed since more than 3000 B.C. Pursuant to one source; it was cultivated for the first time in Iran; while another claimed it was in India or Turkey. Then it was expanded along trade routes to reach each region of the entire world. The pomegranate was highlighted in this study through a literature review in terms of its origin, classification, and description; its medicinal and therapeutic significance; the chemical content of the various pomegranate parts; and lastly, its antiparasitic activities. Pomegranate belongs to the Punicaceae family. Interestingly, it has been frequently employed in disease therapy since ancient times. Furthermore, pomegranate fruits, seeds, and peels are frequently utilized as a natural remedy in traditional medicine. Flavonoids, ellagitannins, punicalagins, ellagic acid, vitamins, minerals, and other chemical components are the most significant ingredients in this plant. Researchers have been evaluating the fruit's characteristics in recent years and have revealed encouraging findings in areas such as cardiovascular health, cancer prevention, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial activities. The pomegranate's unique blend of antioxidants, polyphenols, and other bioactive chemicals has been demonstrated to benefit several areas of human health. In this review, the researcher highlighted the substantial role of the pomegranate as an antiparasitic agent by reviewing numerous studies performed on this topic, whether in vitro or in vivo. Despite a scarcity of research to evaluate its anti-parasitic properties, this study concluded that the pomegranate has anti-parasitic properties that are very encouraging, such as anti-amoebic, anti-anthelmintic, cryptosporicidal, leishmanicidal, giardiacial, and other anti-parasitic characteristics.

Published: May 2023

Dieser Beitrag untersucht Sinnund Deutungshorizonte sowie Handlungsstrategien von Gastfamilien, in deren (Zusammen-)Leben eine mögliche oder tatsächliche Traumatisierung der von ihnen aufgenommenen jugendlichen Geflüchteten virulent wird. Anhand empirisch gewonnenen Materials aus fünf Gastfamilien wird ein kursorischer Einblick in die Beziehungsgestaltung und Identitätsentwicklung unter dem Vorzeichen des Traumas gegeben. Der Beitrag zeigt, dass das Trauma dabei zu einer Metapher für das Fremde, Unbekannte und Unklare im Anderen wird. Traumatisierungen werden somit zu einem leeren Signifikanten, mit dem Lücken der Unwissenheit und Unsicherheit erklärt werden können und ein (Zusammen-)Leben zwischen Nähe und Distanz gesucht werden kann.
Zivile Seenotrettung im europäischen Grenzregime: Leid und Schmerz im freiwilligen Engagement
Authors: Bußmann Marie
Published: May 2023

Das Mittelmeer gilt als eine der tödlichsten aller bekannten sogenannten ›Migrationsrouten‹ der Welt. Seit Jahren verunglücken hier jährlich tausende Menschen beim Versuch, in die Europäische Union zu gelangen. In Reaktion auf den Anstieg der Todeszahlen und ausgestattet mit dem Privileg der Bewegungsfreiheit brachen seit 2014 zahlreiche Freiwillige an die europäischen Außengrenzen ins Mittelmeer auf, um zivile Seenotrettung zu leisten. Diese besondere Form des freiwilligen Engagements ist für die Akteur*innen oftmals mit starken Belastungsproben sowie körperlichen und seelischen Überforderungen verbunden, welche die Engagierten teils an den Rand des Erträglichen bringen. In diesem Bericht werde ich mithilfe von empirischen Beispielen aus der noch laufenden Forschung einen Einblick in das Erleben unterschiedlicher Formen von Leid und Schmerz einiger freiwillig Engagierter gewähren. Dabei wird deutlich werden, dass die Belastungen extrem sein und die Gestalt traumatisierender Erlebnisse mit nachhaltigen Folgen annehmen können.

Clinical guidelines are intended for gastroenterologists, internists, and general practitioners and focus primarily on the management of patients with symptomatic uncomplicated diverticular disease, as well as on the primary and secondary prevention of acute diverticulitis and other complications of diverticular disease. Clinical guidelines were developed by the Russian Scientific Medical Society of Internal Medicine, the Gastroenterological Scientifi c Society of Russia, and the North-West Society of Gastroenterologists and Hepatologists. One of the reasons for creating new clinical guidelines is that the current guidelines on diverticular disease (2021) pay much more attention to complications of diverticular disease and surgical treatment of acute and chronic complications of the disease.
A háború ontológiája és filmi ábrázolása
Authors: Tarnay László
Published: May 2023

Minden háború határátlépés, s minden háború utáni újrakezdés is határátlépés. Az elsőt a közösségek, országok vagy a világ hajtja végre. A második megtétele az egyénre vár. Ez utóbbi esetben az a kérdés, képesek vagyunk-e odafordulni az Idegenhez, a másikhoz, akit ellenségnek tekintünk, aki betör a világunkba, s akinek a létezése zavaró tényező, olyan, ami „metsz és alakít”, ami kizökkent megszokottságunkból, zárt gondolkodásunkból. A háború abból az ellentmondásból fakad, hogy egy törzs, közösség, társadalom, ország stb. egyfelől ki akarja terjeszteni hatalmát a határain túlra, másfelől fél azoktól a közösségektől, akik a határain túl élnek. A határok azonban nem feltétlen külső fizikai határok, hanem kulturálisak is, s bennünk húzódnak. Legfontosabb ismérvük, hogy egy adott közösség összetartozását biztosítják. Éppen ezért a közösség mint olyan nem nyithat az Idegen felé, hiszen ezzel saját alkotó elveit, létének alapjait veszélyeztetné. Ezzel szemben az individuum, még akkor is, ha közösség alkotóeleme, képes megnyílni és fogadni az Idegent, azt, aki mindenekelőtt és szükségképpen behatolóként, határsértőként jelenik meg előtte. Az Idegen fogadásával a szubjektum etikai viszonyba lép, mely egyedi és egyszeri jellegénél fogva élesen elkülönül a közösséget, a társadalmat meghatározó moráltól. A háború egzisztenciális, gazdasági, kulturális stb. motivációk alapján bekövetkező morális értelmű határátlépés, amennyiben a határokon inneni és/vagy túli idegen közösségek és egyének elnyomását, kizsákmányolását, elpusztítását célozza. Azonban a morális értelemben vett határátlépés mindig immorális, mivel magát a határátlépést (ti. saját határainak áthágását) semmilyen morális törvény nem képes előírni ‒ legalábbis önnön létének veszélyeztetése nélkül. A háborúval előálló immorális káoszt pedig nem egy másik, egy »új« morál felülíró hatalma, hanem az individuális szubjektum szinguláris etikai gesztusa számolhatja fel.
