Management of cardiogenic shock complicating ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction: 2
Authors: O'Donovan Kate
Published: January 2019

Cardiogenic shock is a leading cause of death in those experiencing ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction. The objective of therapeutic strategies is to preserve end-organ perfusion and reduce mortality. Prompt revascularisation by percutaneous coronary intervention or coronary artery bypass graft is considered the gold standard of care. Pharmacological and mechanical support is indicated in patients with persistent hypotension and evidence of end-organ hypoperfusion. However, there is a paucity of scientific data regarding the best pharmacological agent or form of mechanical support. Critical care nurses have a pivotal role in caring for these patients by monitoring them and providing physical care and psychological support. Palliative care is complementary to curative therapies and should be perceived as integral to effective symptom management.

Unicondylar knee arthroplasty using cobalt-chromium implants in patients with self-reported cutaneous metal hypersensitivity
Authors: Walker T. , Rutkowski L. , Innmann M. , Panzram B. , Herre J. , Gotterbarm T. , Aldinger P. R. , Merle C.
Published: January 2019

Aims

The treatment of patients with allergies to metal in total joint arthroplasty is an ongoing debate. Possibilities include the use of hypoallergenic prostheses, as well as the use of standard cobalt-chromium (CoCr) alloy. This non-designer study was performed to evaluate the clinical outcome and survival rates of unicondylar knee arthroplasty (UKA) using a standard CoCr alloy in patients reporting signs of a hypersensitivity to metal.

Patients and Methods

A consecutive series of patients suitable for UKA were screened for symptoms of metal hypersensitivity by use of a questionnaire. A total of 82 patients out of 1737 patients suitable for medial UKA reporting cutaneous metal hypersensitivity to cobalt, chromium, or nickel were included into this study and prospectively evaluated to determine the functional outcome, possible signs of hypersensitivity, and short-term survivorship at a minimum follow-up of 1.5 years.

Results

At a mean follow-up of three years (1.5 to 5.7), no local or systemic symptoms of hypersensitivity to metal were observed. One patient underwent revision surgery to a bicondylar prosthesis due to a tibial periprosthetic fracture resulting in a survival rate of 98.8% (95% confidence interval (CI) 91.7 to 99.8; number at risk, 28) at three years with the endpoint of revision for any reason and a survival rate of 97.6% (95% CI 90.6 to 99.3; number at risk, 29) for the endpoint of all reoperations. Clinical outcome was good to excellent with a mean Oxford Knee Score of 42.5 (sd 2.5; 37 to 48).

Conclusion

This study is the first demonstrating clinical results and survival analysis of UKA using a CoCr alloy in patients with a history of metal hypersensitivity. Functional outcome and survivorship are on a high-level equivalent to those reported for UKA in patients without a history of metal hypersensitivity. No serious local or systemic symptoms of metal hypersensitivity could be detected, and no revision surgery was performed due to an adverse reaction to metal ions.
A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial on the efficacy of tranexamic acid combined with rivaroxaban thromboprophylaxis in reducing blood loss after primary cementless total hip arthroplasty
Authors: Clavé A. , Gérard R. , Lacroix J. , Baynat C. , Danguy des Déserts M. , Gatineau F. , Mottier D.
Published: January 2019

Aims

Cementless primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) is associated with risks of bleeding and thromboembolism. Anticoagulants are effective as venous thromboprophylaxis, but with an increased risk of bleeding. Tranexamic acid (TXA) is an efficient antifibrinolytic agent, but the mode and timing of its administration remain controversial. This study aimed to determine whether two intravenous (IV) TXA regimens (a three-hour two-dose (short-TXA) and 11-hour four-dose (long-TXA)) were more effective than placebo in reducing perioperative real blood loss (RBL, between baseline and day 3 postoperatively) in patients undergoing THA who receive rivaroxaban as thromboprophylaxis. The secondary aim was to assess the non-inferiority of the reduction of blood loss of the short protocol versus the long protocol.

Patients and Methods

A multicentre, prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial was undertaken involving 229 patients undergoing primary cementless THA using a posterior approach, whose extended rivaroxaban thromboprophylaxis started on the day of surgery. There were 98 male and 131 female patients, with a mean age of 65.5 years (32 to 91). The primary outcome, perioperative RBL, was evaluated at 72 hours postoperatively. The efficacy of short- and long-TXA protocols in the reduction of perioperative RBL was compared with a placebo group.

Results

TXA significantly reduced perioperative blood loss compared with placebo (p < 0.001); the mean differences were 525.3 ml (short-TXA vs placebo) and 550.1 ml (long-TXA vs placebo). No venous or arterial thromboembolic complications were reported. The upper boundary of the 95% confidence interval, when comparing short and long protocols, was below the pre-specified margin of non-inferiority (p = 0.027).

Conclusion

In patients undergoing primary cementless THA, using a posterior approach, who are treated with rivaroxaban for thromboembolic prophylaxis, short- and long-TXA IV protocols are significantly more effective than placebo in reducing perioperative RBL, without any thromboembolic complications. Non-inferiority of a short- versus a long-TXA protocol in reducing perioperative RBL was supported in a secondary analysis.
Selling volunteering or developing volunteers? Approaches to promoting sports volunteering
Authors: Nichols Geoff , Hogg Eddy , Knight Caroline , Storr Ryan
Published: January 2019

This article considers the balance between promoting volunteering in sport by emphasising the personal rewards to prospective volunteers themselves – the dominant management approach – and promoting it by the long-term development of the values of volunteering. We review the motivations and rewards of sports volunteers and how these can be used to promote volunteering as being a transaction between the volunteer and the organisation. This is contrasted with a lifecourse approach to understanding volunteering, and evidence that an understanding of the value of volunteering can be inculcated that underpins continued volunteering. The two approaches regard potential volunteers respectively as ‘consumers’ and as ‘citizens’. We suggest that a shift to treating volunteers as consumers can lead to volunteering being regarded as transactional. The discussion has implications for volunteering in general – in particular, how it can be promoted in a society where narratives of ‘the consumer’ increasingly dominate over those of ‘the citizen’.
Open online resources and visual representations of music: New affordances for music education
Authors: Schmidt-Jones Catherine
Published: January 2019

In recent years there have been many calls to rethink the central place of common notation in music education, but it can be difficult to decide whether or how to change this fundamental aspect of pedagogy. The usefulness of various means of representing music depends on the specifics of the educational situation, including the music concepts and traditions being studied, instruments used, curriculum goals and even budget. A recent study of adult online learners highlighted the affordances of the open Internet in providing resources that allow teachers and students to move more freely among the various ways of representing music and to choose the most appropriate for each occasion, with opportunities for valuable music learning intrinsic in the process. Theoretical and pragmatic grounds for adopting a more open approach to music representation are discussed, as well as concerns and challenges.
“The road bare and white”: Hemingway, Europe and the Artifice of Ritualised Space
Authors: Mann Fraser David
Published: January 2019

Ernest Hemingway’s The Sun Also Rises (1926) and A Farewell to Arms (1929) are novels in which imagined space and material place interact, collide and contradict. Despite both texts being set in Europe, Hemingway’s prose reveals American anxieties regarding war and identity. His protagonists are emasculated by war and alienated from the myths that have generated singular ideals of American masculinity. The novels imbue European landscapes with ritual and symbolism that create new imagined landscapes on which to perform and reassert this lost identity. Simultaneously, they are texts that expose the artifice of such performative endeavours. These oppositions and dissonances are read here through the prism of Foucault’s paradigmatic “heterotopia”. Foucault suggests that we are in an “epoch of juxtaposition” in which our conflicting understanding of space and place “cannot be superimposed”. This paper argues that Hemingway’s fiction offers a consciously empty form of symbolic space. The failure of the imagination and the knowing artifice of text suggest that the postwar heterotopia leaves no place for material manifestations of mythic autonomy, agency or free will. Hemingway imposes a distinctly American aesthetic on his European experiences. The now mythical frontier provides a mythic locale for the rituals of war to be performed. In this sense, war is heterotopian in its competing material and mythic constructions. Hemingway’s fiction explores the liminal gaps between such certainties. This analysis moves from the vibrant streets of Paris and the whirling chaos of Milanese nightlife to ‘clean’ Alpine lakes, the reductive simplicities of Spanish life and the violent horrors of the Caporetto Retreat. The rituals performed in Europe provide a chance to relocate lost American identities but this process is ultimately revealed as empty and futile. These are textual spaces that are themselves heterotopian. Their prose experiments suggest sub-textual depth yet simultaneously reveal emptiness and futility lying beneath the sparse and economical tone.
“Seducers of the people”: Mapping the Linguistic Shift
Authors: Houston Fiona
Published: January 2019

In his book on propaganda Jacques Ellul acknowledges the unsavoury connotation - which is a common place of today’s culture - surrounding those who write to influence a public. This is an interpretation which is frequently applied to the government propaganda writers of the First World War, yet to do so removes those writers from their context and applies modern understanding to a historical act. Over the last century since the Great War society has developed, causing a social linguistic shift. This shift has affected the way propaganda is understood, and propaganda in an Edwardian sense is not simply synonymous with propaganda as the term is interpreted and used today. My paper demonstrates how this word has undergone lexical development over the intervening years since the War, using corpus-based analysis to track the definition of the term ‘propaganda’ in Oxford English Dictionaries using the Antconc database software. I combine this quantitative research with in-depth exploration of propaganda theories from the Twentieth Century, and examples of First World War propaganda to ascertain when in history, if indeed a certain time was pivotal, this word began to mutate. This paper argues that better understanding of the development of this term reveals the contradictory nature of many modern-day attitudes to the relationship between literature and politics; the disconnect often at play between how we view our own modern culture and the judgements we are tempted to make about the past.
“Ireland first”: The Great War in the Irish Juvenile Press
Authors: Ogliari Elena
Published: January 2019

Inspired by Ben Novick’s studies on the response of the Irish advanced nationalist press to the First World War, this paper focuses on a less-explored topic, i.e. the representation of the conflict in the separatist press for Ireland’s youth. Combining literary and historical interests, I devote my attention to the editorials and literary contributions published in the pages of the juvenile periodicals during and after the war, to highlight how these papers came to popularise, among the youngsters, a specific reception of the first ‘total’ conflict. Spy- and war- stories, ballads and aislings took hold of the boys’ and girls’ imagination: a powerful propagandist instrument, popular literature buttressed a nationalist agenda. At the same time, given the readers’ young age, these periodicals aimed to shape what was to become Ireland’s public memory of the Great War. In the public sphere of post-war Ireland, many soldiers were treated with disdain or indifference. The First World War and its protagonists were condemned to a period of oblivion, which has lasted until quite recently. Textual attention to the rhetoric and literary strategies adopted by the contributors helps to expose the nuances and shifts in the Irish nationalists’ view on war.
“Sons of Two Empires”: The Idea of Nationhood in Anzac and Turkish Poems of the Gallipoli Campaign
Authors: Cakir Burcin , Ulu Berkan
Published: January 2019

An unexpected failure of the Allied forces and a monumental victory for the Turks, the Gallipoli Campaign (1915) is thought to be the first notable experience for Australians and New Zealanders on their way to identify themselves as nations free from the British Empire. For the war-weary Turks, too, the victory in Gallipoli was the beginning of their transformation from a wreck of an empire to a modern republic. Despite the existence of a substantial body of research on the military, political, and historical aspects of the campaign, studies on the literature of Gallipoli are very few and often deal with canonised poets such as Rupert Brooke or national concerns through a single perspective. Aiming to bring to light underappreciated poets from Gallipoli, this paper is a comparative study of less known poems in English and Turkish from Gallipoli. While doing this, the study traces the signs of the nation-building processes of Australia, New Zealand, and Turkey with emphasis on national identity. To this end, the paper examines a number of Gallipoli poems in English and Turkish that were composed by combatant or non-combatant poets by using close reading analysis in search of shifts in discourse and tone. The study also underlines how poets from the two sides identified themselves and the ways the campaign is reflected in these poems. At length, the study shows that Gallipoli poems display similar attitudes towards the idea of belonging to an empire although they differ in the way warfare is perceived. With emphasis on less known poems and as one of the very few comparative studies of the poetry of the Gallipoli Campaign, this paper will contribute to the current research into the legacy and literature of the First World War.
Traumatic Re-enactments: Portraits of Veterans in Contemporary British and Canadian First World War Fiction
Authors: Branach-Kallas Anna
Published: January 2019

The paper focuses on the portrait of the First World War veterans in selected British and Canadian novels published at the turn of the twenty-first century. The authors use various means to depict the phenomenon of trauma: from flashbacks disrupting the present, through survivor guilt, nightmares and suicide, to aporia and the collapse of representation. The comparative approach used in the article highlights national differences, yet also shows that the discourse of futility and trauma provides a trasnational framework to convey the suffering of the First World War. As a result, although resulting in social castration and disempowerment, trauma serves here as a vehicle for a critique of the disastrous aftermath of the 1914-1918 conflict and the erasures of collective memory. Re-enacting traumatic plots, the British and Canadian novels under consideration explore little known facets of the 1914-1918 conflict, while simultaneously addressing some of our most pressing anxieties about the present, such as social marginalization, otherness, and lonely death.
Race, Battlefield 1 and the White Mythic Space of the First World War
Authors: Aguirre Quiroga Stefan
Published: January 2019

The popular perception of the First World War has remained an inherently white mythic space in which white men fight against other white men and where minorities, when and if they are featured, are given an anonymous secondary role and are subject to the will and motivation of their white heroic leaders. This article will be considering the white mythic space of the First World War by focusing on the video game Battlefield 1 (2016) and investigating the backlash by players on online message boards against the inclusion of soldiers of color in the game’s multiplayer features. In the online discourse, these players diminish the role that minorities played in the First World War and although the presence of minorities in the historical First World War is to a minor extent acknowledged, their space in the video game is nonetheless denied. I argue that this backlash is based on a rejection of the inclusive collective memory as portrayed in Battlefield 1, supported by racist arguments against the backdrop of the white mythic space of the First World War and that their rejection of the presence of minorities in Battlefield 1 can be constructed as a continuation of the denial of agency for soldiers of color by white individuals that took place during the First World War and the postwar period.

Social pedagogical practices in Swedish welfare contexts
Authors: Cedersund Elisabet , Eriksson Lisbeth , Jansson Bibbi Ringsby , Svensson Lars A.
Published: January 2019

This article focuses on social pedagogy and how social pedagogical approaches are used in Swedish welfare contexts. Social pedagogy as a phenomenon has existed in a variety of settings and during different periods of time. However, the meaning of social pedagogy as a concept depends to a great extent on the context in which it occurs, and the concept therefore has various connotations. The aim of this article is to analyse and discuss trends, directions and goals in social pedagogical practice. Three research projects (cases) are described, analysed and related to three theoretical models. The three cases – (1) a ‘drive-in football’ project for young people in a suburb, (2) an alternative residential caresetting for young people with learning disabilities, and (3) a ‘future workshop’ for older people – involved different situations and different audiences, all with elements of marginalisation and exclusion. The analysis of the three examples shows that social pedagogical practice in the Swedish context is characterised by the challenge of balancing the tensions between the individual and the collective, between emancipation and adaptation and between action and negotiation. The social pedagogical activities are also characterised by the fact that they all contain social, practical and existential dimensions of social support and an approach rooted in ethical core values.

A CRITICAL GUIDE TO CASE SERIES REPORTS
Authors: Carey Timothy S. , Boden Scott D.
Published: January 2019

Objective. Provide guidance to investigators and authors regarding appropriate conduct and reporting of case-series studies. Summary of Background Data. Evidence-based practice has provided a substantial contribution to advancing clinical science. Many study designs have been critically examined, and the quality of the research literature has improved. A common study design in musculoskeletal medicine is the case series: a description of the course of patients over time. Case series can provide valuable information as to: case definition, trend analyses regarding outcomes, and clues as to causation. Case series cannot be used to draw inferences regarding treatment effect. Methods. Examination of previous work on identification of characteristics of high quality study designs such as cohort studies; extending this work to case series. Results. We identified draft characteristics that good case series studies should address: clearly defined study question; well- described study population; well-described intervention; use of validated outcome measures; appropriate statistical analyses; well-described results; discussion/conclusions supported by the data presented; funding sources acknowledged. Conclusions. We propose these measures to authors and journal editors as one mechanism to improve the quality of the case series study.

Inna teoria
Authors: Krajewska Anna
Published: January 2019

The article contains reflections on “a different theory of literature”. By emphasising the impossibility of maintaining a vision of theory as a history of courses, research methods, academic disciplines and other ‘isms’ and ‘turns’, the author suggests replacing this with ‘a different theory’. This is ‘different’ in that it is written as dramatography; different because it does not comprise uniform subject matter, but various interwoven discourses; different because it consolidates individual experiences and frequently develops away from one concept. This issue of “Przestrzenie Teorii” deals with theory emerging from art, theory rooted in and rooting itself in art.
Raz jeszcze o literaturze i muzyce
Authors: Walczak Jakub
Published: January 2019

The article deals with the still relevant interdisciplinary research movement, which chose the relation between music and literature as the object of its analysis. The book by Libor Martinek and Małgorzata Gamrat, which is the result of cooperation between a literary scholar and a musicologist, is the main basis for and contribution to this discussion. Following the path set by P. Scher, these authors have found a methodological dimension, on which issues of literary text functioning in the music sphere are located, and on the other hand, attempts to define a so-called literary text’s musical aspects.

The present article identifies common ideas and ways of thinking in research and poetical creative work.
Humanistyka performatywna
Authors: Krajewska Anna
Published: January 2019

This article foregrounds the collapse of the binary opposition between drama and theatre that in literary and theatre discourses are traditionally recognized as wholly separate art forms, with the former based on words and the latter based on live performances. The present author argues that by applying a performative perspective on art in its varied forms and introducing the category of the entanglement of matter and meaning, derived from quantum physics, a non-antagonistic approach to drama and theatre is still possible. The argument that sees literature as a performative art, adopted by the author, provides additional support. This article shows how changes in the very notion of the text as well as in the ontological status of literature itself have had their effect on the transformations of beliefs and conceptions grounded in the vision of the humanities understood as “the textual world” to produce the concept of “entangled world” instead. This being the case, the author proposes to depart from the concept of “text” (no matter how restructured or redefined), abandon thinking in categories of network structures (even Latour’s actor-network’s theory), and discard dialectical or holistic approaches (even the theory of cognitive blending – “cognitive amalgams”) in favour of emergent “entanglement acts”, anamorphic perspective in art reception and synaesthetic discourses. By studying experiences related to performativity in the arts and discourses related to performance studies, the article goes to show the changes currently going on in the humanities and transforming them into the perfomative humanities in the process.

Fully integrated CMOS-compatible polarization analyzer
Authors: Wu Wenhao , Yu Yu , Liu Wei , Zhang Xinliang
Published: January 2019

Polarization measurement has been widely used in material characterization, medical diagnosis and remote sensing. However, existing commercial polarization analyzers are either bulky schemes or operate in non-real time. Recently, various polarization analyzers have been reported using metal metasurface structures, which require elaborate fabrication and additional detection devices. In this paper, a compact and fully integrated silicon polarization analyzer with a photonic crystal-like metastructure for polarization manipulation and four subsequent on-chip photodetectors for light-current conversion is proposed and demonstrated. The input polarization state can be retrieved instantly by calculating four output photocurrents. The proposed polarization analyzer is complementary metal oxide semiconductor-compatible, making it possible for mass production and easy integration with other silicon-based devices monolithically. Experimental verification is also performed for comparison with a commercial polarization analyzer, and deviations of the measured polarization angle are <±1.2%.

Despite the profound changes in capitalist development since the industrial revolution, strike waves and mass strikes are still a feature of the twenty-first century. This article examines two Marxist theories that seek to explain the temporal aspects of strike waves. In the main, I argue that Silver’s product cycle theory, suffers from an over-determinism, and that turning point strike waves are not mainly determined by lead industries. Mandel’s long wave theory argues that technological innovations tend to cluster and thus workers in different industries feature prominently in strike waves. By re-examining and comparing two competing Marxist theories on the temporality of strike waves and turning points, I will attempt to highlight the similarities but also place emphasis on where the theories differ. I examine the applicability of the theories to the South African case, and reference recent world events in order to ascertain the explanatory power of the competing theories. In the main I argue that Silver’s product cycle lead theory does not fit the South African experience.

Escaping the Perils of Sensationalist Television Reduction
Authors: Mueller Michelle
Published: January 2019

Mormon polygamy has become a popular subject for contemporary reality television shows. TLC’s polygamy reality shows center around Mormon polygamist families from the families’ points of view. In contrast from these, Lifetime/A&E Networks’ Escaping Polygamy (2014–) centers around three twenty-something ex-members of a Mormon fundamentalist sect known as the Kingston group. The show depicts the ex-members as heroines who rescue other young adults as they are leaving Mormon polygamist sects. In this article, Escaping Polygamy is interpreted as an “atrocity tale” that relies on a history of moral panic around Mormon polygamy and perpetuates reductive stereotypes about Mormon fundamentalist groups. After an evaluation depending on content analysis of the series and informal interviews with key individuals represented on the series, this article explores the possible damage Escaping Polygamy causes for Mormon polygamist sects and even the young adults shown leaving the groups.
Implementación operativa de un modelo de intervención para la mejora del desempeño organizacional
Authors: Matus Pérez Daniel
Published: January 2019

El fracaso de las mipymes en México es de los más elevados a nivel mundial y a pesar de que se tienen identificadas y categorizadas las principales causas de dichos fracasos, que son: problemas para vender, producir y operar, control de operaciones, planificación y gestión, no se han logrado revertir estas, prueba de ello es su elevada tasa de mortandad. Se tiene conocimiento que diagnosticando adecuadamente el problema e incorporando diversos elementos administrativos y operativos a la organización e implementando estrategias de corto, mediano y largo plazo, se puede mejorar el desempeño organizacional en las pymes y así disminuir el porcentaje de fracaso. El objetivo de este artículo es proponer un modelo de implementación operativo paralelo al que aplicó un equipo de consultoría a un grupo de siete radiodifusoras en México (que logró la mejora del desempeño organizacional), que integra los elementos administrativos y operativos que contrarrestan las principales causas de fracaso a través de mejorar el desempeño organizacional que está compuesto por el desempeño financiero y el desempeño operativo. La investigación utilizó un modelo mixto con diseño concurrente a través de un estudio de caso descriptivo y explicativo. La importancia del modelo operativo de implementación es facilitar a los integrantes de las organizaciones su ejecución sin requerir un equipo de expertos para su consecución
Interference Effects of Deleterious and Beneficial Mutations in Large Asexual Populations
Authors: Jain Kavita
Published: January 2019

Linked beneficial and deleterious mutations are known to decrease the fixation probability of a favorable mutation in large asexual populations. While the hindering effect of strongly deleterious mutations on adaptive evolution has been well studied, how weakly deleterious mutations, either in isolation or with superior beneficial mutations, influence the rate of adaptation has not been fully explored. When the selection against the deleterious mutations is weak, the beneficial mutant can fix in many genetic backgrounds, besides the one it arose on. Here, taking this factor into account, I obtain an accurate analytical expression for the fixation probability of a beneficial mutant in an asexual population at mutation-selection balance. I then exploit this result along with clonal interference theory to investigate the joint effect of linked beneficial and deleterious mutations on the rate of adaptation, and identify parameter regions where it is reduced due to interference by either beneficial or deleterious or both types of mutations. I also study the evolution of mutation rates in adapting asexual populations, and find that linked beneficial mutations have a stronger influence than the deleterious mutations on mutator fixation.
Effect of two cytokinins and a growth inhibitor on the in vitro tuberization of two genotypes of Solanum tuberosum L. cvs. Atlantic and Alpha

This investigation was carried out to evaluate the effect of two cytokinins: 6-benzilaminopurine (BAP) (6.5 mg l-1) and kinetin (K) (2.5 mg l-1), as well as the growth inhibitor abscisic acid (ABA) (1.0 mg l-1) on the in vitro tuberization capacity of two potato varieties: Atlantic and Alpha. The basal culture medium MS (1962) was used as a control. The responses were different between varieties. In cv. Atlantic, the analysis of the number (NM), weight (WM) and diameter (DM) of microtubers indicated that the addition of growth regulators did not affect induction and development of microtubers. However, when BAP was used, a non-significant increment of 41 % was observed in the number of the microtubers compared to the control treatment, from 2.6 to 4.4. The addition of cytokinins and ABA to the medium did not have a significant impact on the development of microtubers. In cv. Alpha the cytokinins used without ABA increased the number of microtubers, which were larger and heavier than those of the control treatment. In this variety, ABA significantly reduced the values of the NM, WM and DM variables. The exogenous action of cytokinins in the culture medium is likely to have caused an endogenous hormonal imbalance in the Atlantic and Alpha genotypes which interfered with their innate microtuberization ability, a result that was even more evident for cv. Alpha, which showed the need to continue optimizing protocols of genotype-specific systems in potato tissue culture to increase yield and seed quality.
Evidencias sobre algunas tendencias pedagógicas y didácticas presentes en los programas de estudio de matemáticas costarricense
Authors: Zumbado-Castro Marianela
Published: January 2019

Las tendencias pedagógicas y didácticas que se presentan en los programas de matemáticas orientan el estilo de organización de las lecciones propuesto por el Ministerio de Educación Pública de Costa Rica a partir de 2012. Cada momento de la clase está fundamentado en ideas de diversas fuentes: constructivismo, socioculturalismo, pragmatismo realista, educación matemática realista; además, en ideas japonesas, francesas y norteamericanas. En este documento, se pretende presentar el vínculo entre la teoría y las acciones que se pueden desarrollar con los estudiantes, a través del planteamiento de un problema, la resolución de este y el trabajo del docente, de acuerdo con la propuesta costarricense. Se puede establecer que hay presencia e impacto de cada tendencia al vivenciar los momentos propuestos para trabajar en el aula, debido a que es sólida la fundamentación y se ofrece un respaldo teórico e histórico consolidado, por lo tanto, se puede depositar la confianza en la propuesta metodológica.
The concept of human nature in Noam Chomsky
Authors: Madarasz Norman Roland , Santos Daniel Peres
Published: January 2019

One of the constants in Noam Chomsky’s philosophical, linguistic and ethical positions is the existence of what he calls “human nature”. Following Marx, Darwin and last century’s revolutions in the social sciences, human nature has been one of the most contested conceptual holdovers from modern European philosophy. Chomsky’s discoveries and models on syntax and language make up one of the frameworks to most critically offset the traditional moral dimension of human nature. Contrary to most traditions prior to his work, language can no longer be restricted to either mind, soul or spirit. Language, as Chomsky has continually upheld and sharply refined, is a physical and biological process. But how his notion of human nature derives from this process is complex, as he seems to disregard philosophy’s classic analytic delineation between the descriptive causal realm of human nature and the normative axiological extensions of the same concept. In this paper, we seek to examine the philosophical and ontological implications of Chomsky’s claim that human nature derives from the innate dimension of the language faculty. Not only does Chomsky maintain the category of human nature, he also indexes it to the question of freedom. We thereby argue for the coherence of his proposal and show how it operates to weld the perspective of a modal theory of biologically-rooted creativity to innate conditions specific to his theory of language generation. However, we question whether its restriction to humans alone is sustainable from a scientific perspective by putting forth the claim that Chomsky’s science is in fact a radical ontology of social subjectivation.
Individuo y sociedad en Th. W. Adorno: tensiones y mediaciones entre teoría de la sociedad y psicoanálisis
Authors: Zaragoza José António Zamora
Published: January 2019

Este artículo analiza la relación entre individuo y sociedad en Theodor W. Adorno. Para ello se centra en las tensiones y mediaciones entre teoría de la sociedad y psicoanálisis. Su punto de partida es el horizonte histórico concreto del vínculo que une a ambos: la conjunción de crisis e integración. Después presenta la constitución social de la subjetividad desde la perspectiva de teoría crítica, la economía psíquico-libidinal como matriz psicosocial de dicha constitución, la tesis de la debilitación del individuo en un capitalismo monopolista autoritario, su expresión en el carácter autoritario y el narcisismo herido, para acabar señalando los límites históricos del sujeto neurótico y modelo edípico y los elementos de una posible actualización de las aportaciones de una psicología social psicoanalítica.

Diferencias entre hombres y mujeres en el significado psicológico de las prácticas de socialización sexual fraternas
Authors: Enríquez Negrete David Javier
Published: January 2019

Objetivo: describir el significado psicológico de diferentes prácticas de socialización sexual fraterna y determinar si existen diferencias por sexo. Método: estudio transversal con muestreo no probabilístico (n = 214 universitarios); se utilizó la técnica de Redes Semánticas Naturales Modificadas para analizar el significado psicológico de diferentes prácticas de socialización sexual fraterna. Resultados: Las mujeres refieren prácticas y significados centrados en un rol afectivo y los varones en un rol instrumental; sin embargo, existe un amplio espectro de tácticas de socialización que son compartidas por ambos sexos. Conclusiones: el género y la cultura son elementos que deben ser considerados en las prácticas fraternas de socialización sexual.
