STUDENT HOSTEL ACCOMMODATION CHALLENGE IN NIGERIAN UNIVERSITIES AND THE PUBLIC-PRIVATE PARTNERSHIP OPTION
Authors: UTILE Timothy
Published: June 2024

One of the most cherished educational assets for students in tertiary institutions in Nigeria and the
world is hostel accommodation. This asset provides students with an environment for intellectual
development and easy interaction with fellow peers and fosters teamwork and communal spirit among
students. Hostel accommodation in most Nigerian tertiary institutions is problematic and scarce too; as such,
many students tend to be affected academically and psychologically; this study investigated the challenges
of hostel accommodation in Benue State University, Makurdi and suggested the Public Private Partnership
(PPP) option. The objectives of the study are to ascertain the causes of hostel accommodation challenges in
Nigerian tertiary institutions with Benue State University, Makurdi, in sight, to ascertain the impact of hostel
accommodation problems on students' academic performance and welfare and to suggest options best for
hostel accommodation challenge in Nigeria tertiary institution. Three research questions guided the study.
The study is anchored on the stakeholders' theory by Edward Freeman (1983). A mixed-method research
design was adopted for this study. Simple random sampling was used, and questionnaire administration and
Oral interviews were conducted to obtain information from 45 respondents. The study found out, among
other things, that the over-enrollment of students causes a shortage in student hostel accommodation,
inadequate hostel facilities, and a lack of maintenance culture by management/government, which are
identifiable sources of accommodation challenges. The study recommends the PPP option and privatization
of hostel facilities as the way forward for the best quality and quantity of accommodation in tertiary
institutions in Nigeria.
EMOTIONAL RESPONSES TO SERVICE RECOVERY INITIATIVES IN THE BANKING INDUSTRY
Authors: ATTIA Abdelkader Ali
Published: June 2024

In many regular banking transactions, it is not surprising that occasional service failure is
inevitable despite tremendous effort for zero-defect service delivery. Consequently, the outcome of service
failure can be disastrous for the banks' short- and long-term existence. As a result, this study investigated
the impact of service recovery justice (DJ, PJ, and IJ) on consumers' emotions (positive (PEM), and negative
(NEM)) and post-recovery satisfaction (PRS), word of mouth (WOM) in the banking industry of Spain.
Additionally, this study examined the mediating role of PEM and NEM between (DJ, PJ, and IJ) and PRS.
The study collected data from 500 customers of Spanish banks using an online questionnaire. The analysis
was performed using the Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM) approach. The
results indicate that (DJ, PJ, and IJ) positively influence PEM. Moreover, DJ negatively impacts NEM.
However, PJ and IJ have no significant effect on NEM. Besides, PEM is shown to positively affect PRS, while
NEM negatively impacts PRS. Additionally, PRS is positively influencing WOM. Furthermore (DJ, PJ, and
IJ) indirectly impact PRS through PEM. Only DJ indirectly impacts PRS through NEM. The findings have
significant implications for theory and practice, offering vital insights for creating effective policies and
regulations in the Spanish banking industry to improve customer satisfaction and emotional responses to
service failures.
ANALYSIS OF TRANSPORTATION IN CLUJ
Authors: POP Andrei
Published: June 2024

From a socialist society where public transit was the primary form of transportation to the modern
“Silicon Valley” of Eastern Europe, where the streets are flooded with cars. Cluj has changed over the years;
overturned by university students for most of the year, the city and encompassing communes have
experienced significant growth, which stresses the existing socialist infrastructure and causes high levels of
strategic planning to accommodate the present and future transportation plans. Moreover, the CTP is no
exception; as the only provider of public transportation in Cluj, it is at the centrefold of this predicament and
needs to distinguish itself as a success within Cluj to provide for the community's needs. In this paper, we
look at data from multiple sources to analyze what drives people's choice of transportation and pinpoint
some fundamental notions as to why people choose private vehicles and other forms of transportation over
public transit. Then, using SWOT and PEST analysis, we look to find solutions to benefit the community.
Many options are available to develop more fluidity in the city, change the notion of public transportation,
and create reliance on public transportation.

Purpose: The general objective of this study was to explore sustainability practices in eco-friendly resorts.
Methodology: The study adopted a desktop research methodology. Desk research refers to secondary data or that which can be collected without fieldwork. Desk research is basically involved in collecting data from existing resources hence it is often considered a low cost technique as compared to field research, as the main cost is involved in executive’s time, telephone charges and directories. Thus, the study relied on already published studies, reports and statistics. This secondary data was easily accessed through the online journals and library.
Findings: The findings reveal that there exists a contextual and methodological gap relating to sustainability practices in eco-friendly resorts. Preliminary empirical review revealed that integrating green technologies and comprehensive sustainability measures significantly improved environmental performance, operational efficiency, and guest satisfaction. Despite progress, gaps remained in understanding the long-term economic impacts and challenges faced by smaller resorts, especially in developing regions. The findings suggested that policymakers and resort operators could enhance sustainability by investing in green technologies and engaging with local communities. Future research was recommended to address these gaps and develop scalable solutions. Overall, the study reinforced that sustainability is essential for environmental conservation and viable business strategy.
Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: The Triple Bottom Line theory, Stakeholder theory and Resource-Based View (RBV) may be used to anchor future studies on sustainability practices in eco-friendly resorts. The study provided several recommendations, emphasizing contributions to theory, practice, and policy. Theoretically, it highlighted the relevance of the Triple Bottom Line, Stakeholder, and Resource-Based View theories, suggesting future research to explore their intersections. Practically, it advised resort operators to adopt advanced green technologies, engage in continuous environmental training, and integrate sustainability into their core business strategies. Policy recommendations included developing supportive regulations and incentives, establishing certification programs, and promoting community engagement and CSR initiatives. The study also underscored the importance of prioritizing biodiversity and conservation efforts, and encouraged a collaborative framework among stakeholders to share best practices and innovative solutions.

Authors: Dr. Amardeep Bajpai
Published: June 2024

Introduction: It is highly important to understand the role of financial technology-based startups in the field of financial support. Thus, the study here aimed to investigate the job of fintech solutions or startups in the performance management of financial institutions and the process they use to mitigate risk in financial matters.
Literature Review: The economic contraction was most likely the cause of the decline in the value of investments. Understanding the importance of operational efficiency, traditional financial institutions have embraced technology advancements to automate repetitive tasks, lower errors, and save costs. As a result, overall performance and cost-effectiveness have increased.
Methodology: The method of data collection that has been selected to investigate the roles that fintech startups play in reducing financial risk is "primary quantitative." As a result, answers to a questionnaire consisting of 13 questions were gathered from 55 people.
Findings and analysis: The statistical analysis revealed that the majority of responses were either in agreement or strongly in agreement. Given that the Pearson Correlation value is greater than 0.8, there is a strong correlation between each variable. Every hypothesis formulated during the initial stage of the study has been approved.
Discussion: Fintech, which is a combination of finance and technology, uses cutting-edge methods and instruments to improve the overall effectiveness and resilience of risk management frameworks. However, fintech startups face a variety of obstacles along the way, but they are also presented with opportunities for innovation and growth on their optimization journey
Conclusion: The adoption of fintech by financial institutions is expected to create a dynamic risk management landscape that can adjust to new opportunities and challenges in the constantly changing financial sector. The primary quantitative method was selected in order to collect the pertinent data for this investigation. Through statistical analysis, the gathering of quantitative data can assist in projecting real-time information.
Control biológico de Botrytis cineria en tomate mediante Prestop®
Authors: Ortega Benito , García Alberto , Lambea Borja , Pascual Rubén
Published: June 2024

Botrytis cinerea is one of the foliar fungal diseases that causes most economic losses in tomato in greenhouses. These losses can directly affect the fruit but also can affect stems, leaves and flowers. Stem rot can be the pathogen colonization pathway that causes the most losses since, if a stem is affected, a branch with several fruits at the same time or even the entire crop production can be lost. The current trend towards the reduction of chemical active substances and the emergence of biological control of plant diseases defined as "the reduction of the amount of inoculum or disease-inducing activities of a pathogen that is achieved through one or more organisms" (Baker and Cook (1983), have prompted Massó agro to develop since 2011 PRESTOP® PRESTOP® contains the beneficial fungus Clonostachys rosea (previously named Glycoladium catenulatum) strain J1446. The installation of this fungus can occur prior to the appearance of the pathogen as well as to control the disease in conditions of high Botrytis infection, due to the persistence of Prestop® on the leaf surface of the crop................................................................................Botrytis cinerea, es una de las enfermedades fúngicas foliares que más pérdidas económicas producen en tomate en invernadero. Estas pérdidas pueden afectar directamente a los frutos viéndose también afectados tallos, hojas y flores. La pudrición en tallos puede ser la vía de colonización del patógeno que ocasione más pérdidas ya que, si un tallo se ve afectado, puede llegar a perderse una ramificación con varios frutos a la vez o incluso toda la producción del cultivo. La tendencia actual a la reducción de materias activas de origen químico y la aparición control biológico de enfermedades definiéndose como “la reducción de la cantidad de inóculo o de las actividades inductoras de enfermedad de un patógeno que se logra a través de uno o más organismos” (Baker y Cook (1983), han impulsado a Massó agro a desarrollar desde el año 2011 PRESTOP®. PRESTOP® contiene el hongo beneficioso Clonostachys rosea (anteriormente Glicoladium catenulatum) cepa J1446. La instalación de este hongo puede darse previamente a la aparición del patógeno como también para controlar la enfermedad en condiciones de alta infección de Botrytis, debido a la persistencia de Prestop® en la superficie foliar del cultivo.

El crime fiction y la traducción al francés de la violencia colectiva en Un lugar llamado Oreja de Perro
Authors: Vilchez Sandoval Diego , Hernández Ezeta César Alexander
Published: June 2024

En este artículo, reflexionamos sobre la traducción al francés de la novela Un lugar llamado Oreja de Perro, de Iván Thays, y su discurso sobre la violencia colectiva contra la población rural en Perú tras el Conflicto Armado Interno (CAI) (1980–2000). La novela presenta características del crime fiction: un argumento construido sobre una breve disrupción del orden, presentación de la violencia mediante el binario víctima-victimario e inspiración en un momento histórico, político y cultural representativo. La literatura peruana sobre el CAI ha sido introducida en mercados internacionales mediante traducciones, pero ha recibido poca atención desde los estudios de traducción. Un análisis contrastivo permitió observar las características del crime fiction en la novela y los efectos de su traducción en el discurso sobre la violencia. La traducción de la novela busca preservar las características del género priorizando la comunicación de un discurso sobre la violencia en detrimento de las características culturales que estructuran la violencia en la novela; en este caso, la dimensión étnico-racial del conflicto, cuando estos estos elementos son inconmensurables entre ambas culturas. Por ello, la versión en francés tiende hacia la domesticación, pero presenta excepciones extranjerizantes.

Lecturas y traducciones de la obra de Guerra Junqueiro en España
Authors: Dasilva Xosé Manuel
Published: June 2024

El objetivo primordial de este estudio consiste en examinar la recepción de Guerra Junqueiro en España a través de las lecturas y las traducciones de su obra a lo largo del tiempo. Inicialmente, se aborda la vasta fama, hoy en día casi olvidada, que consiguió este escritor portugués en el país vecino, debida en una dosis importante a su espíritu iberista y a su ideario político de carácter progresista. Después, en el ámbito de las lecturas, se analizan sobre todo las contribuciones de Clarín, Ramón del Valle-Inclán y Miguel de Unamuno. En la última parte, se repasan las versiones de sus textos, tanto en periódicos y revistas como en libros. En lo que se refiere a esta vertiente, se presta atención especialmente a la labor del escritor gallego Manuel Curros Enríquez, recogida en buena medida en La Lira Lusitana (1883), y del poeta y dramaturgo Eduardo Marquina, quien se encargó de verter la mayoría de los títulos de Guerra Junqueiro para una misma editorial. Para finalizar, se revisa la presencia del poeta luso en diferentes antologías.
El papel de la idiomaticidad fraseológica en la formación de traductores
Authors: Rodríguez Pablo Ramírez
Published: June 2024

La idiomaticidad, en materia fraseológica, es un rasgo que suele ir representado junto al concepto de motivación y se explica según el tipo de unidad fraseológica (UF) o de los constituyentes que la forman. La motivación, por su parte, se vincula a los procesos cognitivos existentes entre significado literal (SL) y significado figurado (SF) de la UF en cuestión. Partiendo de estas premisas, en el presente estudio se hace referencia al componente idiomático presente en la traducción fraseológica y se propone como objetivo determinarlo mediante un ejercicio de traducción de locuciones idiomáticas (L) destinado a estudiantes rusos, de cara a examinar el grado de idiomaticidad y motivación de las UF. Asimismo, se hace hincapié en la importancia de estas propiedades en la formación de traductores e intérpretes, así como en la adquisición fraseológica de estas unidades idiomáticas para una mayor competencia y destreza lingüística en general.
Viajar da Ucrânia a Portugal com um passageiro clandestino chamado covid-19: estudo de um caso crítico em interpretação telefônica
Authors: Lázaro Gutiérrez Raquel , Cabrera Méndez Gabriel
Published: June 2024

A concentração de pessoas em ambiente familiar e as viagens internacionais são duas das principais formas de contágio do coronavírus, responsável pela grande pandemia da nossa história recente, e foi uma mistura destes dois aceleradores da propagação do vírus que esteve na origem do caso crítico que queremos apresentar. No final de outubro de 2020, uma família ucraniana-portuguesa viu-se impossibilitada de se reunir em Portugal, quando um dos membros da família apresentou sintomas graves compatíveis com a covid-19 em território espanhol e precisou de internamento hospitalar urgente. Este acontecimento levou ao isolamento de outro dos viajantes com sintomas leves num hotel na Espanha, enquanto os restantes seguiram a sua viagem para Portugal. Nenhum dos integrantes da unidade familiar falava espanhol e foram atendidos pelo Osakidetza (Serviço de Saúde do País Basco), usando o serviço de interpretação telefônica contratado à empresa Dualia Teletraducciones, que operou nas combinações português-espanhol e ucraniano-espanhol. Neste artigo, aprofundamos a análise das conversas realizadas através de interpretação telefônica entre pacientes e enfermeiras, médicas, rastreadoras e intérpretes profissionais de português e ucraniano, com base na metodologia de estudo do Incidente Crítico (Lian, 2001; Page & Meerabeau, 2000; Perry, 1997); da hospitalização e isolamento dos membros do núcleo familiar até terem alta médica e regressarem a Portugal. Abordamos especificamente os elementos culturais, reflexos da assimetria entre os interlocutores e o impacto que estes dois blocos de elementos tiveram na transferência de informação por parte dos intérpretes telefônicos.

Authors: Fonseca Norma Barbosa de Lima , Nunes Leonardo Pereira , Vieira Milene Rocha
Published: June 2024

A tradução automática tornou-se mais popular nos últimos anos, sendo largamente utilizada por diversos usuários, sejam eles leigos, tradutores profissionais ou aqueles que precisam produzir textos acadêmicos em uma língua que não dominam (Bowker & Buitrago Ciro, 2019). Mesmo com os recentes avanços tecnológicos, ainda é necessária a correção, ou pós-edição, dos textos traduzidos automaticamente, o que não deveria demandar mais esforço que a produção de textos diretamente na língua-alvo. Nessa perspectiva, este estudo visou analisar o esforço temporal despendido para realizar três tarefas distintas envolvendo o português brasileiro (L1) e o inglês (L2): escrita na primeira língua (EL1), escrita na língua adicional (EL2) e pós-edição na língua adicional (PEL2). Foram analisados os processos dessas produções textuais realizadas por três participantes (P01, P02 e P03), doutorandos da área de Educação, que executaram essas tarefas em ordens diferentes. Para a coleta, utilizaram-se um questionário prospectivo, o programa Translog©-II, o Tobii Studio Eye Tracking Software©, o OBS Studio, um relógio de pulso do tipo smartwatch, e protocolos retrospectivos guiados. Os resultados apontaram que a EL2 demandou mais tempo dos participantes, possivelmente devido à média proficiência linguística na L2. Contudo, o tempo despendido nessa tarefa foi inversamente proporcional à sua posição na ordem das tarefas. Observou-se, também, que a tradução automática tem efeito facilitador sobre a PEL2, demandando menos tempo que a EL2. Finalmente, constatou-se que o esforço temporal combinado entre EL1 e PEL2 foi menor que o da EL2. Apesar de a pós-edição não ser realizada com muita frequência no meio acadêmico e demandar mais esforço para textos mais complexos, os resultados sugerem que esta pode ser uma forma mais eficiente de produção textual na L2, quando a escrita na L1 e a pós-edição em L2 demandarem menos tempo do que a escrita em L2.
La traducción de las paremias en los diccionarios bilingües italoespañoles
Authors: Fragapane Federica
Published: June 2024

El uso de proverbios y refranes, tan característico de la lengua del pasado, no ha desaparecido y sigue siendo un rasgo peculiar de los registros más coloquiales, alcanzando a veces también el nivel estándar. Aprender estas piezas lingüísticas en el marco de una lengua extranjera significa enfrentarse a la ardua tarea de asimilar y memorizar enunciados que con frecuencia no encuentran ninguna correspondencia en la propia lengua nativa. Ahora bien, una fuente que puede contribuir a la transmisión de este bagaje lingüístico y cultural es sin duda el diccionario bilingüe, que reúne estas expresiones afianzando la competencia comunicativa del discente. El principal objetivo que nos hemos marcado consiste, pues, en analizar el tratamiento lexicográfico que se les reserva a las paremias en algunos diccionarios bilingües italiano-español usados actualmente. Haremos hincapié en el aspecto traductológico de estos enunciados, puesto que la falta de equivalentes acertados repercute sin duda negativamente en la adquisición por parte de quien consulta el diccionario.
Um século após, ainda é preciso narrar o espanto: melancolia e interpelação no conto “Dentes negros e cabelos azuis”, de Lima Barreto
Authors: Chagas Gabriel
Published: June 2024

Embora à frente de seu tempo em vários sentidos, o escritor carioca Lima Barreto (1881 – 1922) é ainda hoje reduzido à categoria de “pré-modernista”. Pensando nisso, analiso o conto “Dentes negros e cabelos azuis”, publicado originalmente em 1918, com o objetivo de demonstrar a contribuição fundamental de Lima Barreto para uma literatura contrária à celebração acrítica do “progresso” durante a Primeira República (1889 – 1930). Para tanto, ofereço uma breve reflexão sobre o conflito de 1922 entre Lima Barreto e os modernistas de São Paulo. Em seguida, dedico-me ao espaço do subúrbio, à alegoria dos dentes negros e dos cabelos azuis e à interpelação entre os personagens do conto como uma possibilidade de denúncia ao racismo brasileiro. A tese central deste artigo é a de que o conto faz uso da relação antitética entre casa e rua para desenvolver uma série de outras antíteses, numa narrativa “em abismo” sustentada por oposições que refletem a própria contradição da modernidade brasileira. O horizonte teórico deste trabalho parte da tradição negra de caráter anticolonial e decolonial, como a cena de interpelação narrada por Frantz Fanon em Pele negra, máscaras brancas e as formulações teóricas de Achille Mbembe e Grada Kilomba.
A Semana de 22 e as escritoras modernistas: o erótico em "Mulher Nua", de Gilka Machado
Authors: Consentino de Araújo Luísa , Venutto Aline
Published: June 2024

Temos que não há pesquisas em Direito e Literatura que tratam da participação das autoras mulheres na Semana de Arte Moderna de 1922. No centenário da Semana, no XI CIDIL - Colóquio Internacional de Direito e Literatura, pesquisadoras da área questionaram essa ausência produzida. Nesse sentido, considerando que a historiografia literária é permeada por lacunas, buscamos, neste texto, pensarmos a autoria feminina na Semana de 1922 e seus desdobramentos, de modo a fazer justiça à voz de Gilka Machado. Para tanto, no âmbito dos estudos em Direito e Literatura, sob a perspectiva teórico-metodológica das legências em desconstrução, buscamos analisar o poema “Commigo mesma”, publicado em “Mulher nua” (1922), a partir da perspectiva do erótico.
Setting the Stage for Play: Exploring the Relationship Between Play Type and Positive Caregiving Strategies During Therapeutic Playgroup
Authors: Fabrizi Sarah , Tilman Ann
Published: June 2024

Importance: Although play and positive caregiving strategies have been associated with child well-being, little is known about the relationship between play type and strategies used by caregivers in early childhood.

Objective: To investigate whether a relationship exists between play type and positive caregiving strategies.

Design: Exploratory correlational nonexperimental design.

Setting: Early childhood center.

Participants: A convenience sample that included 60 observations of 14 caregivers during a therapeutic playgroup with 14 children with and without disabilities ages 15 mo to 3 yr (4 fathers, 3 mothers, 1 nanny, and 6 female early childhood teachers; age range = 30–39 yr). The caregivers were Black (n = 1; 7.1%), Hispanic (n = 5; 35.7%), and White (n = 8; 57.1%).

Outcomes and Measures: Positive caregiving strategies were scored using the Parenting Interactions with Children: Checklist of Observations Linked to Outcomes.

Results: Results revealed no significant correlations between play type and positive caregiving strategy. There was a positive, significant correlation between caregiving strategies (affection, responsiveness, encouragement, teaching, and total; rpbs = .767–.970, n = 58, p = .001). The play type and caregiver type variables did not predict total positive caregiving strategies, F(2, 57) = 2.147, p = .126. One variable, caregiver type, added statistical significance to the prediction (p = .045).

Conclusions and Relevance: The findings show no relationship between play type and positive caregiving strategy. Consideration of the types of caregivers participating in a therapeutic playgroup and their roles and use of positive strategies during play is worthy of further investigation.

Plain-Language Summary: This study explored how parent and teacher caregivers supported children (both with and without disabilities) during a therapeutic playgroup at an early childhood center. Therapeutic playgroups are a special type of group play in which a trained professional helps guide play activities to support participation. The researchers wanted to see whether there was a connection between the type of play the children engaged in and how the adult caregivers interacted with them. The surprising finding was that there was no link between play type and how caregivers interacted. However, the caregivers often used positive strategies with the children, regardless of the play activity. Interestingly, type of caregiver (parent, teacher) seemed to make a slight difference in how they interacted with the children during playtime. Overall, this study suggests that more research is needed to understand how the types of play activities and objects might influence caregiver interactions during group play.

Reklamationsprozesse optimieren

Zeit ist Geld – dieser Satz gilt auch für Reklamationen und Retouren im Online-Handel. Allerdings sehen viele Händler die Abwicklung von Retouren als notwendiges Übel an, das vor allem als Kostentreiber wirkt. In der Praxis ist das Gegenteil der Fall: Schlechtes, langsames Retourenmanagement schädigt die Kundenbeziehung und verursacht in mehreren Dimensionen Zusatzkosten.
