Semiotic Analysis on Head Nod Ijab Qabûl of Deaf Groom in Islamic Marriage Law
Authors: Bustomi  , Fauzan
Published: September 2023

This article aims to analyze the semantic side of a deaf wedding contract which interprets the contract with a nod of the head as the sign language. This qualitative research uses a phenomenological approach that reveals the experiences of three people in Bengkulu in 2021. In this case, the phenomenon in question is a nod of the head as an ijab qabûl. This study is interpreted by Charles Sanders Peirce's semiotic theory, which states that a sign is something used by an icon through an object so that it can function as a meaning for the interpretant. The analysis concluded that Deaf who nodded their heads as the qabûl words meant approval. Looking at Muslim scholar's opinions, especially as-Syarqâwi and al-Malibari, if the head nod means acceptance like such a phenomenon, the marriage contract of the Deaf is considered valid in Islamic law because the essence of qabûl is receiving an offer from the guardian of the bride.
Artikel ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis sisi semantik akad pernikahan Tuli yang mengucapkan akadnya dengan anggukan kepala sebagai bahasa isyaratnya. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian kualitatif yang menggunakan pendekatan fenomenologi yang mengungkap pengalaman kejadian ijab qabûl yang dilakukan oleh tiga orang Tuli di kota Bengkulu pada tahun 2021. Dalam hal ini, fenomena yang dimaksud adalah anggukan kepala sebagai ijab qabûl. Kajian ini dianalisis dengan teori semiotik Charless Sanders Peirce yang menyatakan bahwa tanda adalah sesuatu yang digunakan oleh suatu ikon melalui suatu objek sehingga dapat berfungsi sebagai pemaknaan bagi interpretan. Hasil analisis penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa Tuli yang menganggukkan kepalanya sebagai kata qabûl bermakna persetujuan. Sejalan dengan pendapat ulama fikih, terutama menurut as-Syarqâwi dan al-Malibari, perkawinan Tuli yang demikian dianggap sah dalam hukum Islam karena hakikat qabûl adalah mendapat izin dari wali pengantin perempuan.

Published: September 2023

Thin layer chromatography (TLC) fingerprint profile analysis can be used for quality control of herbal medicinal raw materials through identification, authentication, and discrimination. This study aims to develop a fingerprint analysis method for tempuyung TLC (Sonchus arvensis L.), which is then used for quality control. Tempuyung was extracted with methanol using ultrasonication which was then analyzed using the developed fingerprint TLC method. The optimum mobile phase used to separate compounds from tempuyung was a composition of chloroform: ethyl acetate: dichloromethane: formic acid (7.5:2:0.5:0.1) and produced eleven bands. The mobile phase composition produced good separation and had a typical luteolin band with an Rf value of 0.22, detected under UV 366 nm and derivatized with 10% sulfuric acid reagent. This method was applied to tempuyung from three locations, including Malang, Solo, and Yogyakarta, whose fingerprint patterns did not differ significantly. The fingerprint method has been validated and met the acceptance requirements for quality control of tempuyung.
The Transmedial Knights of the Round Table: Character-Based Worldbuilding in the Manuscripts of Chrétien de Troyes
Authors: Watt Caitlin G.
Published: September 2023

The five Arthurian romances of Chrétien de Troyes were hugely influential in establishing King Arthur’s world as one that could easily expand to include the adventures of a seemingly endless group of chivalric heroes. Chrétien’s use of character details to connect his romances and suggest a shared fictional world inspired other romance writers as well as medieval translators, illustrators, and manuscript copyists and compilers. The result was a multimedia Arthurian universe akin to the modern narratological concept of the transmedial storyworld. This storyworld relied on the recognisability of the Arthurian knights as characters and existed in many different forms across written and visual media, including the unique combinations of text and image that appear in different manuscript witnesses of Chrétien’s romances. Emphasising the utility of both individual manuscripts and modern narratology, this article investigates three manuscripts that contain romances by Chrétien: Paris, BNF fr. 1450, Paris, BNF fr. 1433, and Montpellier, Bibliothèque interuniversitaire, H 249. Through examining the distinct arrangement, editing, and decorative choices in these manuscripts, I argue that they illustrate the potential of character as a means of worldbuilding, not only for medieval authors but also for other creators and audiences.
Coupled harmonic oscillators model with two connected point masses for application in photo-induced force microscopy
Authors: Jahng Junghoon , Lee Eun Seong
Published: September 2023

To comprehensively describe the operation of photo-induced force microscopy (PiFM), we have developed a model based on coupled harmonic oscillators. This model features two point masses connected by massless elastic wires, offering greater intuitiveness compared to existing PiFM models. It simplifies these models into a unified theoretical framework. By solving the equations of motion using adjusted oscillator parameters, we have successfully replicated all dynamic features from previous theories. These features include resonance frequencies and shapes of eigenmodes, as well as the responses to various external forces in the two PiFM modes: direct coupling and sideband coupling. Furthermore, by integrating our model with a recently developed photo-induced thermal expansion force model, which covers both tip-enhanced and global expansions, we have managed to uncover the underlying physical mechanism responsible for the unique signal behaviors observed in sideband coupling mode, where the signal plot, as a function of sample thickness, unexpectedly exhibits a peak followed by a valley, rather than a proportionally increasing signal. Our study has the potential to enhance the comprehension of various other physical phenomena associated with PiFM in the future.
Performance and mechanism of CO2 reduction by DBD-coupled mesoporous SiO2
Authors: Wang Jiangming , Yang Yongshi , Yu Jinxin , Ye Zhongzhou , Li Zhen , Ye Zhaolian , Zhao Songjian
Published: September 2023

In the process of CO2 reduction with dielectric barrier discharge (DBD)-coupled catalysis, the existing material presents unsatisfactory synergy, such as high cost, complicated preparation processes, and low conversion rates. An inexpensive and environmentally friendly mesoporous SiO2 with different morphologies by gel–sol method was synthesized and then introduced for synergistic conversion of CO2 with DBD. The physicochemical properties of the synthesized mesoporous SiO2 materials were analyzed using X-ray diffraction, thermogravimetric analysis, scanning electron microscopy and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller method, indicated the prepared mesoporous materials manifested large specific surface areas, ordered pore channels and pore size, and good stability. The CO2 reduction performance, CO selectivity, and energy efficiency of DBD alone and DBD-coupled mesoporous SiO2 were investigated at different input powers. The SiO2 prepared with 1.05 g cetyltrimethylammonium bromide addition had the highest activity, in which the conversion of CO2, CO yield and energy efficiency were increased by 56.73, 68.41, and 122.31%, respectively, compared with DBD alone. The primary CO2 conversion mechanism of the mesoporous SiO2-coupled DBD was analyzed. It is shown that the suitable pore capacity structure, the large specific surface area, and the presence of filament discharge within the pore size of suitable mesoporous material can promote the decomposition of CO2 on its surface.

Published: September 2023

Menschen sind soziale Wesen. Einsamkeit und soziale Isolation erweisen sich deshalb als Stressoren und haben schwerwiegende Folgen für die körperliche und psychische Gesundheit. Daten aus der Vor-Corona-Ära zeigen, dass ungefähr 10% der Deutschen einsam sind. In der Pandemie ist diese Zahl gestiegen. Es gibt zahlreiche Interventionsansätze auf verschiedenen Ebenen. Soziale Isolation und Einsamkeit haben enorme Public Health-Relevanz, die bisher unterschätzt wurde.

Published: September 2023

Mit dem Ziel einer verbesserten psychotherapeutischen Versorgung erfolgte im Jahr 2017 eine Strukturreform der Psychotherapie-Richtlinie. Ziel des ES-RiP-Projektes („Evaluation der Strukturreform der Richtlinien-Psychotherapie – Vergleich von komplex und nicht-komplex erkrankten Patienten“) war eine Evaluation der Reform. Die neuen Strukturelemente fanden Eingang in die Versorgung, werden aber sehr heterogen in der psychotherapeutischen Praxis realisiert. Die unterversorgte Risiko-Gruppe der Patient:innen mit psychischer Störung und gleichzeitig vorliegender chronischer, körperlicher Erkrankung wurde jedoch kaum besser erreicht als vor der Reform.
Die Rohstoffe der Ukraine und ihre strategische Bedeutung – eine geopolitische Analyse
Authors: Blum Ulrich , Borg Gregor , Kropp Nico , Liventseva Hanna , Rozhkova Ievgeniia
Published: September 2023

Kurzfassung

Die Ukraine ist reich an Rohstoffen, vor allem in der Donbas-Region. Dazu gehören Rohstoffe wie Eisenerz und Kohle, die für die erste industrielle Revolution wichtig waren. Der Reichtum umfasst aber auch Nichteisenmetalle und batteriebezogene Mineralien, insbesondere Lithium, das für die moderne und speziell eine grüne Wirtschaft von herausragender Bedeutung ist. Nach einer Einführung in die allgemeine ökonomische Entwicklung des Landes analysiert der Artikel die ukrainische Industrie-, Energie- und Ressourcenbasis, um sich dann auf die Potenziale jener Ressourcen zu konzentrieren, die im Zuge der Dekarbonisierung der westlichen Industriestaaten eine signifikante Rolle spielen werden. Der Artikel gelangt zu dem Schluss, dass Russlands Überfall auf die Ukraine auch von wirtschaftlichen Interessen geleitet war. Russland konnte bislang als Lieferant von fossilen Energieträgern Einfluss ausüben. Angesichts der potenziell großen Lithium-Vorkommen in der Ukraine scheint es sich nun Zugriff auf Stoffe verschaffen zu wollen, die für die Dekarbonisierung der westlichen Länder unverzichtbar sind.
tert-Butyldichlorophosphane: crystal structure and its reactivity towards supersilyl sodium
Authors: Fink Lothar , Bamberg Marcel , Alig Edith , Lerner Hans-Wolfram
Published: September 2023

Crystals of tBuPCl2 were obtained by a short-path sublimation at 80 °C/0.150 mbar. The structure determination of tBuPCl2 was based on X-ray powder data. The measurements were carried out in a temperature range from 173 K to r. t. At 173 K the X-ray powder pattern has been assigned to an orthorhombic phase, and that at 213 K to a plastic-crystalline, cubic phase. We further investigated the reactivity of tBuPCl2 towards Na(thf)2[SitBu3] at ambient temperature. The reaction of tBuPCl2 with two equivalents of Na(thf)2[SitBu3] gave together with tBu3SiCl the yet unknown phosphanediide Na2[PtBu] by a chlorine-sodium exchange. The identity of Na2[PtBu] was confirmed by 31P NMR spectroscopy and its existence was unambiguously demonstrated by its protonation with methanol and the consequent formation of tBuPH2.
Interaktion im Schatten der Hierarchie: Zwang und Zusammenarbeit in Jobcentern
Authors: Bähr Holger
Published: September 2023

Die Beratung und Vermittlung in Jobcentern erfolgt als Interaktion von Vermittlungsfachkräften und Arbeitsuchenden. Sie verfolgt das Ziel, Arbeitsuchende in eine Erwerbsarbeit zu bringen und dadurch ihre Hilfebedürftigkeit zu beenden. Sowohl Zwang als auch Zusammenarbeit kennzeichnen die Interaktion. Dieser Beitrag beleuchtet das Verhältnis von Zwang und Zusammenarbeit in der Beratung und Vermittlung, das Gegenstand sowohl politischer Diskussionen als auch wissenschaftlicher Studien ist. Hierfür wird der Ansatz des akteurzentrierten Institutionalismus verwandt mit seiner analytischen Trennung von institutionellem Kontext, Akteurkonstellation und Interaktionsform. Es wird gezeigt, dass die Akteurkonstellation eine besondere Relevanz für das Verhältnis von Zwang und Zusammenarbeit besitzt und für die Beratung und Vermittlung eine Konstellation charakteristisch ist, die als Selbstkoordination im Schatten der Hierarchie beschrieben werden kann.

National Trends in Voiding Cystourethrograms During Hospitalization for Young Infants With Urinary Tract Infections
Authors: Pingree Elizabeth W. , Harper Beth D. , Liu Shanshan , Neuman Mark I.
Published: September 2023

OBJECTIVES

The American Academy of Pediatrics published a guideline in 2011 recommending against the routine use of voiding cystourethrogram (VCUG) in infants aged 2 to 24 months with first febrile urinary tract infection (UTI); however, the rates of VCUG for infants aged <2 months are unknown. The objective of this study was to determine the trend in VCUG performance during index hospitalization among infants aged 0 to 2 months with UTI.

METHODS

This retrospective cohort study included infants aged birth to 2 months hospitalized with a UTI from 2008 to 2019 across 38 institutions in the Pediatric Health Information System. Outcome measures included recurrent UTI within 1 year, vesicoureteral reflux diagnosis within 1 year and antiurinary reflux procedure performed within 2 years. Trends over time were compared between preguideline (2008–2011) and postguideline periods (2012–2019) using piecewise mixed-effects logistic regression.

RESULTS

The odds of VCUG decreased by 21% per year in the preguideline period (adjusted odds ratio, 0.79; 95% confidence interval, 0.77–0.81; P < .001) versus 20% (adjusted odds ratio, 0.80; 95% confidence interval, 0.77–0.83; P < .001) in the postguideline period. The preguideline and postguideline difference was not statistically significant (P = .60). There was no difference in the postguideline odds of UTI within 1 year (P = .07), whereas the odds of vesicoureteral reflux diagnosis (P < .001) and antiurinary reflux procedure performance (P < .001) decreased.

CONCLUSIONS

VCUG performance during hospitalization has declined over the past decade among young infants hospitalized with UTI. Further work is needed to determine the optimal approach to imaging in these young infants.
Aproximación a la discriminación de grupos en situación de vulnerabilidad desde una perspectiva jurídica, social y ética
Authors: Barquet Muñoz José , Vázquez Parra José Carlos
Published: September 2023

El presente artículo busca hacer una reflexión en torno a diferentes nociones jurídicas relacionadas con la discriminación. Para ello, es necesario hacer una breve incursión en el campo de la ética, tomando en cuenta algunos estudios doctrinales alrededor de otros conceptos como los de igualdad y dignidad, así como los tipos de discriminación y la discriminación interseccional. También se ofrece una perspectiva jurídica y social para contar con un concepto universal extraído desde la regulación internacional como la Declaración Universal de Derechos Humanos y algunas convenciones regionales y especiales aplicables. Posteriormente, se toma el ejemplo de México para seguir desarrollando el concepto, al ser un país donde la regulación contra la discriminación ha sido considerablemente amplia. Por último, se hace una breve descripción para la reflexión sobre cinco grupos en situaciones de vulnerabilidad que, a pesar de que no son minorías por cuantía, históricamente han sido objeto de la discriminación estructural. El análisis de estas reflexiones y ejemplos expuestos en este artículo sirven para identificar los actos de discriminación que se presentan en diferentes formas y, de esta manera, ser capaz de tomar acciones para evitar y combatir estos actos con el fin de buscar una sana convivencia bajo un ordenamiento ético y social.
La construcción patriarcal del cautiverio femenino de la belleza ilustrado en narraciones costarricenses del siglo XX
Authors: Sanabria León Jorge , Angulo Mora Karol , Corrales Valverde Natalia , Fernández Hernández Carmen , Flores Guillén Marietta , Hernández Ulate Katherin
Published: September 2023

El objetivo de este análisis es identificar rasgos del ideal de belleza representado, como modelo de identidad femenina, en nueve cuentos costarricenses escritos en el período entre los años 1900 y 2000. El ideal de belleza en la literatura costarricense presupone que la creación cultural reproduce patrones socioculturales de socialización. Se analizaron nueve cuentos costarricenses para ilustrar las representaciones del ideal de belleza de la mujer en tanto referentes de los modelos de socialización femeninos en la cultura costarricense. La metodología aplicada se basa en la hermenéutica profunda psicoanalítica, la cual permitió el análisis en diversos niveles de sentido, desde el juego intrínseco en la relación texto-lector, que articula la función de las imágenes, hasta las simbolizaciones en el texto como agente de socialización que recoge, transmite y polemiza construcciones socioculturales (Sanabria, 2007). El estudio destaca que el ideal de belleza femenino no remite exclusivamente al aspecto físico, sino que abarca y controla diversos ámbitos de la subjetividad de las mujeres. Es un conjunto de encargos sociales dirigidos hacia la mujer que no son estáticos, sino que se continúan adaptando históricamente ante mandatos patriarcales sobre el rol sociocultural femenino, lo cual implica imposiciones psicosociales para la subordinación femenina en donde la belleza se impone como una forma de cautiverio.
La polifonía lingüística en las elecciones presidenciales costarricenses del 2018: descifrando el entramado de voces y puntos de vista de la ciudadanía
Authors: Arroyo-Mata Marco A. , Cruz Volio Gabriela , Vergara Heidke Adrián
Published: September 2023

La entrevista es una práctica discursiva que representa una versión del mundo mediante mecanismos subjetivos, así como evaluativos. Como instrumento investigativo, permite conocer las diferentes representaciones de realidades individuales desde la perspectiva de ciudadanos comunes. Por ello, para este artículo, se determinaron los patrones lingüísticos presentes en los posicionamientos dialógicos de entrevistas sobre las elecciones costarricenses 2018, realizadas a lo largo del país. Para el muestreo, se incluyeron a hombres y mujeres de diferentes zonas geográficas, edades, niveles educativos y afiliaciones políticas. Utilizando una reelaboración de las categorías lingüísticas del sistema de compromiso de la teoría de la valoración y los planteamientos de la teoría escandinava de la polifonía lingüística (ScaPoLine), se analizaron los mecanismos polifónicos y las estrategias polifónicas de los enunciados dialógicos emitidos por las personas entrevistadas. Se logró establecer que existe una preferencia por incorporar posiciones y puntos de vista ajenos mediante estrategias polifónicas que abran espacios discursivos a voces no autorales y no limiten su alcance. Además, existió una preferencia por utilizar estructuras polifónicas sintácticas (negaciones, concesiones, discurso reportado, evidenciales), en lugar de sus contrapartes léxicas.
Incarcerated Adult Learners’ English Reading for General Information Through the Skimming Strategy and Graphic Organizers
Authors: Cheuquel Paine Rubén Miguel , Díaz Larenas Claudio Heraldo
Published: September 2023

The present action research study aimed to explore how the explicit teaching of the skimming reading strategy using graphic organizers can support six adult learners’ reading for general information in a Chilean EFL incarcerated context and to describe their perceptions of the skimming strategy intervention. Based on an intervention of four sessions utilizing the Cognitive Academic Language Learning Approach (CALLA), the data was collected using pre and post intervention tests and a focus group discussion. The findings revealed that the explicit teaching of skimming strategy and the use of graphic organizers helped incarcerated learners to improve their reading skills to find general information in a text. Moreover, the findings showed positive perceptions from learners towards the teaching of the strategy and the use of graphic organizers.
Global Tribe: Technology, Spirituality and Psytrance
Authors: St John Graham
Published: September 2023

Born from extensive international research, Global Tribe documents a little understood global dance culture that has mushroomed all over the world since its beginnings in diverse psychedelic music scenes flourishing in Goa, India, in the 1970s and 1980s. From small parties to major international events such as Portugal’s Boom Festival, the paramount expression of this movement has been the festival. Via first-hand accounts of the scenes, festivals and music of psychedelic trance (psytrance) in Australia, Israel, Italy, the UK, the US, Germany, Turkey and other places, the author explores this transnational movement with attention to its diverse aesthetic roots, national translations and internal controversies. As a thoroughly engaging multi-sited ethnography and an intimate examination of the digital, chemical, cyber and media assemblage of psytrance, Global Tribe studies the integrated role of technology and spirituality in the formation of this visionary arts movement. The book demonstrates how the event-culture of psytrance accommodates rites of risk and consciousness, a complex circumstance demanding revision of existing approaches to ritual, music and culture.
Alchemical Metaphors and their Yogic Interpretations in Selected Passages of the Tamil Siddha Literature
Authors: Kędzia-Warych Ilona
Published: September 2023

In the Tamil siddha texts, the passages on yoga frequently interlace with teachings on alchemy. The texts on these domains of the traditional siddha knowledge are often composed in a deliberately ambiguous and obscure manner, which results from the use of various strategies, such as wordplay riddles, metaphors, ellipses and vague technical vocabulary. In this article, I examine ambiguous passages in the alchemical literature of the Siddhars which, apart from their literal, alchemical meaning, can be also interpreted as metaphorical allusions to yogic practices and concepts. I concentrate mostly on the literature ascribed to Siddhar Yakopu, tentatively dated to the seventeenth century. I analyse several instances of equivocal verses and consider the possible role of the obscure passages. I study the intertwined alchemical and yogic discourse and I reflect on the siddha understanding of matter.

INSTABILITY IN POISEUILLE FLOW IN A BIDISPERSE POROUS MEDIUM WITH RELATIVELY LARGE MACROPORES
Authors: Hajool Shahizlan Shakir , Harfash Akil J.
Published: September 2023

The hydrodynamic stability of an incompressible fluid flowing through a bidisperse porous medium is being investigated. The problem has been investigated when the Darcy theory is applied to micropores and the Brinkman theory is applied to macropores. This includes an incompressible fluid at isothermal conditions confined in an infinite channel with a constant pressure gradient throughout its length. The fluid moves laminarly along the pressure gradient, generating a parabolic velocity profile that is independent of time. Flow in a circular duct is shown to be stable to small disturbances for all Reynolds numbers, whereas flow in a plane-parallel channel is unstable if the Reynolds number
exceeds a critical value, which depends on the problem parameters.

Published: September 2023

El objetivo de este texto es la descripción de una herramienta creada para el estudio del léxico de la informática en Internet en español, por cuanto en este se hacen presentes dos particularidades: a) es un léxico de amplia divulgación, y b) se halla en continua renovación, lo cual provoca que en el ámbito hispánico no exista univocidad para nombrar algunos términos que lo conforman. Estas características hacen necesario abordar el estudio de esta parcela léxica, para describir y contrastar los términos que en el mundo hispánico se han generado y se están generando dentro de la misma. Con este fin, empleamos una base de datos en línea que nos permite recopilar diversos tipos de información (semántica, pragmática, morfológica y diatópica) acerca de este léxico.
¿CÓMO ANALIZAR LA POSICIÓN SOCIAL DEL INTELECTUAL EN COLOMBIA? PRESUPUESTOS METODOLÓGICOS Y CULTURALES
Authors: Zapata Juan
Published: September 2023

Este artículo propone, a partir de un diálogo entre las propuestas teóricas de Pierre Bourdieu, Jacques Dubois, Pascale Casanova y Rafael Gutiérrez Girardot, unas herramientas teóricas para analizar la trayectoria y la toma de posiciones estéticas, políticas y económicas del intelectual en función de su posición social. Dicha posición será analizada aquí a partir de tres momentos: en primer lugar, la posición del intelectual al interior de la institución cultural. En segundo lugar, la posición que la institución cultural ocupa al interior del campo del poder y, por último, la posición que la nación ocupa en la cartografía mundial de la producción cultural. Con esto en mente, se propone al final un esquema que engloba las posibles trayectorias del intelectual colombiano desde su aparición a finales del siglo XIX hasta el momento actual.
primer asentamiento europeo estable en las Islas Canarias: San Marcial de Rubicón (Yaiza, Lanzarote) y el comienzo de la circulación monetaria en el archipiélago en los umbrales del siglo XV1
Authors: González Marrero María del Cristo , Chávez-Álvarez Esther , Prieto Angulo Patricia , Hervás Herrera Miguel Ángel , García García Luis Alejandro , Montero Ruiz Ignacio
Published: September 2023

La ciudad de San Marcial de Rubicón fue la primera ciudad europea fundada en Canarias, unos años después de que los conquistadores Jean de Bethencourt y Gadifer de La Salle arribaran a la isla de Lanzarote y diera comienzo, en 1402, la conquista señorial del archipiélago canario. Este artículo pretende dar a conocer el singular lote monetal hallado durante las excavaciones arqueológicas que se llevaron a cabo en 2021, así como el contexto en el que apareció. Su interés radica en que se trata de la primera muestra documentada de los inicios de la circulación monetaria en las islas. A ello se suma que la mayoría de ellas lleva una contramarca que consiste en una letra B gótica que evoca, casi sin lugar a duda, la inicial del conquistador normando. Por último, la aparición de estas monedas en contextos arqueológicos sellados podrá alimentar el debate abierto hoy en día en torno a las emisiones monetarias de los monarcas Enrique II y de su nieto, Enrique III, precisamente el soberano a quien Bethencourt rindió pleito-homenaje por primera vez, según relata Le Canarien, crónica francesa de la conquista.

Authors:   National Technical University of Ukraine «Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute» Ukraine, STREBKOVA Julia
Published: September 2023

The results of a study of intangible aspects of combat readiness of Russian combatants had been represented in the article. In particular, the gender markers of the readiness of Russian militants to attack with the commission of sexual violence were investigated. The process of formation of socio-psychological attitudes in the motivational sphere of Russian men had been illustrated. A socio-philosophical analysis based on a gender approach was used to study the relationship between ideology, politics and social practices. Author emphasized, that analysis of the causes of complex social phenomena and processes requires possession of a complex of methodological and interpretive practices, which goes beyond jurisprudence or psychology and requires socio-philosophical research. Based on a number of criteria, a collection of methodical materials was selected for analysis - a publication specialized on pro-life and anti-choice topics. It was found that under the guise of an educational project, russian ideologues had been carried out a destructive influence on the personality of men. The peculiarities of such influence are revealed, which are illustrated by original Russian-language quotations from methodical materials. The list of target groups of this ideological project had been given. The geography of such projects had been studied. As a result of the study, applied aspects of the formation of misogyny in the Russian military were clarified. Methods of dehumanization of woman through the deprivation of a person's right to control his body in an anti-choice context had been demonstrated. It has been confirmed that the dehumanization of women enables gender-based violence as a means of warfare, including rape, enslavement, and forced pregnancy. It has been found that the dehumanization of real women as a group is a strategy of so called ―russian world‖ and a condition for sexual violence.
RUSSIAN MATRIX AND ALGORITHMS OF DECOLONIZATION (A review of the book: Ageyeva Vira Behind the scenes of the empire. Essays on Ukrainian-Russian cultural relations: 2nd edition, reprinted. Kyiv: Vikhola, 2023. 360 p.)
Authors:   H. Skovoroda Institute of Philosophy of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine Ukraine, HRABOVSKY Serhiy
Published: September 2023

The review is dedicated to the new book of Professor Vira Ageyeva, in which she examines Ukrainian-Russian relations mainly of the past two centuries under an anti-colonial perspective. The fact is that in world Slavic studies a lot has been written about these relations in the context of overtly or covertly articulated Russian interests and priorities. The Russian Empire, as this state was called from birth, constantly ennobled its history with other people's achievements and gains, in return depriving Ukrainians of what they had achieved. Through the prism of the cultural process, Vira Ageyeva describes and examines the Ukrainian resistance to the Russian Empire and the struggle for the preservation of collective memory. In these centuries, Ukrainian literature was the main spokesperson of the anti-colonial discourse. The author of the book traces the dynamics of this discourse, which she keeps track of from Kotlyarevsky, Kvitka-Osnovyanenko, Kharkiv romantics to the era of modernism, and then to several attempts to establish a state. Ukrainian culture and literature in particular during these periods offered different models of identity, one way or another, more or less successfully undermining the Russian imperial matrix and asserting its own cultural self-sufficiency. At the same time, as Vira Ageyeva convincingly proved, the humanism of Russian literature, which is talked about so much in the departments of Slavic studies of Western universities, with rare exceptions was exhausted (and is exhausted now) on the Ukrainian question.

Authors: Wilk Teresa
Published: September 2023

Nowadays we live in an unfavorable multicultural reality that generates a number of difficult situations that society must constantly get used to. This reality requires constant adaptation to it, causing various attitudes and behaviors. The main good for the entire society is the acquisition of appropriate skills and dispositions, so that the everyday world becomes possible to carry out everyday tasks. In search of the positive patterns of behavior and conditions for the desired changes, art becomes helpful, the value and potential of which can contribute to modeling reality and social attitudes. Performing its social and educational functions, art significantly revitalizes social space, it just needs to be given a chance to do so. The aim of the research was an attempt to show the possibility of changes in the life of an individual, his/her attitudes, and in the social space under the influence of the presence of art. In the adopted orientation of qualitative research, such methods of data acquisition as free-targeted interviews and analysis of the content of the subject literature were used. An important method was also the opinion of artists/experts. The results of the research were presented in the form of the respondents’ statements, which show that the respondents mostly perceive the social and educational functions of art and are able to locate them in the space of social change. By fulfilling its artistic and, above all, social and educational functions, it allows for changes in the everyday functioning of a person, the implementation of his/her attitudes, and the perception of the need to shape social reality through positive own activity. Art is conducive to building social awareness, which contributes to compensating the area of social life. Reaching the recipient, not only allows them to become interested in it but also awakens their sensitivity and willingness to introduce the proposed solutions into everyday social life. It has an integrating and revitalizing function.
Language Learning Strategies in Music Education
Authors: Woszczak Justyna
Published: September 2023

The article presents an outline of various foreign language learning strategies, the presence of which can also be seen in well-known methods and concepts of music education at school. The similarities between music and language have been the subject of discussion among philosophers, musicologists, linguists, and psychologists for many years. Moreover, along with the development of neuroimaging techniques, scientific evidence has been provided to approximate the analogies that occur in the process of perceiving linguistic and musical structures. This article outlines the similarities of language and music in terms of didactics and focuses on the ways they are acquired. It presents the existent analogies between the strategies of foreign language learning and strategies used in music learning. The subject of consideration are also the ways of music and language learning integration, which could be provided by introducing CLIL method (Content and Language Integrated Learning). The CLIL method, which is now increasingly used in general education, can bring double benefits in relation to music. This form of integrated music and language teaching can be used both in general music education and in primary and secondary music education. In addition, recent research on the introduction of CLIL to secondary music education is briefly described.

Authors: Papuda-Dolińska Beata , Błaszczak Anna , Wiejak Katarzyna , Knopik Tomasz , Krasowicz-Kupis Grażyna , Łuniewska-Etenkowska Magdalena , Zieliński Piotr
Published: September 2023

Introduction: On the basis of education, the criterion-referenced diagnosis of the disorder does not provide sufficient grounds for planning educational and therapeutic support. The functional characteristics supplementing the data from the nosological diagnosis show the possibilities and difficulties of a person in functioning in the everyday life context. Research Aim: The aim of the article is to present observational scales for assessing the cognitive functioning of people with moderate (KAPP_SNIU), severe (KAPP_SNIZ) and profound (KAPP_SNIG) intellectual disabilities aged 6 to 25, which are part of the KAPP diagnostic battery. Evidence-based Facts: Current diagnostic instruments for the functional assessment of people with moderate, severe and profound intellectual disabilities contain outdated or non-standardized tools. In Poland, there is a need to supplement this catalogue. Summary: The scales are intended for functional assessment performed by special educators, psychologists and specialists. Theoretical assumptions on which the construction of the scales is based and the stages of this process, which included: pilot studies, standardization studies and validation studies, are presented. The psychometric properties of the scales as well as the data confirming convergent and differential validity are also described. The last chapter presenting the fields for interpretation of the results (inter-individual, intra-individual comparisons and between the parallel perspectives of the parent and teacher in the 270-degree diagnosis model) gives specialists a picture of the possibility of using tools in everyday diagnostic and therapeutic work.
Learning Environment in the Optics of Critical Constructivism
Authors: Perkowska-Klejman Anna , Górka-Strzałkowska Anna
Published: September 2023

Introduction:This article is an attempt to show the constructivist learning environment as a model, as a concept that assumes that the student is an active, not a passive participant in the process of gaining in-depth, flexible and systemic knowledge rather than fragmentary, rigid or mechanically reproduced. The text focuses on the contemporary needs of students based on radical and social constructivism. The main dimensions of critical constructivism and elements of a constructivist learning environment are outlined based on Peter Taylor and Barry Fraser’s concept. Research Aim:The aim is to show critical constructivism as a set of various theories, concepts creating conditions for independent construction of knowledge and creating a friendly-learning environment. Evidence-based Facts:The concept is derived from the teaching imperative (John Dewey, Jean Piaget, Lev Vygotsky and Howard Gardner). It assumes that learning is an active process of constructing knowledge based on the experience of the learner and such construction is usually completed subjectively and metacognitively). The concept of constructivism is quite often used by both theoreticians (academic lecturers and researchers) as well as practitioners (school teachers). Summary: In the article, we analyze the role played by a constructivist learning environment that radically questions the vision of a student as a passive recipient and gives him the status of an active subject contributing to the construction of a learning-friendly environment. Education should be seen as supporting the student in the process of creating meanings that allow to construct your own understanding of the world.
