Authors: Kresal Friderika , Šubej Tomaž , Amon Mojca
Published: June 2022

Pri zdravstveno ranljivejših populacijah, kot so starejši odrasli s sindromom krhkosti, je pomembno posebno pozornost nameniti ustreznemu prizadevanju za zaščito pred okužbo z virusom ali zmanjšanju zdravstvenih posledic hudega akutnega respiratornegasindroma SARS-CoV-2, ki sproži koronavirusno bolezen 2019 (covid-19). Primeri zgodnje smrti se pojavljajo predvsem pri starejših odraslih s sindromom krhkosti, ki vpliva na intenzivnejše napredovanje virusne okužbe. Uporabljena je bila deskriptivna metoda, ki temelji na pregledu znanstvene literature. Po diagramu PRISMA je bilo v analizo vključenih 8 znanstvenih člankov. Vključitvena merila pri izboru člankov so vključevala metaanalize in pregledna dela, v katerih so avtorji preučevali povezavo med krhkostjo in covidom-19 pri starejših osebah nad 65 let s sindromom krhkosti. Rezultati raziskav izpostavljajo predvsem povezavo med stopnjo krhkosti in mortaliteto pri pacientih s covidom-19. Izpostavljena je tudi povezava med krhkostjo in daljšo hospitalizacijo, sprejemom na oddelek za intenzivno terapijo, delirijem in slabšim izidom zdravljenja. V kliničnem okolju je potrebno starejšim odraslim s covidom-19 čim prej omogočiti večkomponentno zdravstveno obravnavo.

Familjelivets organisering - ekonomiska resurser, kön och manlig dominans
Authors: Roman Christine
Published: June 2022

There is now an extensive body o f feminist research on gender inequalities in marriage based on the assumption that power plays an important causal role here. However, in much of this research the concept of power is implicit rather than investigated explicitly. This artide discusses how the processes of power and differences in power between spouses influence the management of the family finances and the division of labor in the home. One of the most influential sociological theories in this field of research (resource theory) predicts in the first place that the balance of power rests with the partner who contributes most to the family in terms of income, education, status etc. Secondly it makes a connection between the relative economic power of the spouses and how housework is divided between them. This article presents research findings which support such connections - including results from a recent Swedish study by Ahrne & Roman (1997), but the argument put forward here is that the decisionist conception of power applied in the resource theory approach has some serious limitations. Some of these are clearly illustrated by results from the Swedish study mentioned above. The data indicate not only the existence of frequent and open conflicts over the division of labour - where husbands tend to get their own way - but they also suggest that hidden aspects of power shape negotiations between spouses. Even more seriously, the resource theory approach to the balance of power in marriages tends to overlook the importance of ideological and cultural factors, i.e. gender, in reinforcing or counteracting the effects of differences in financial power and resources or of economic equality between spouses. There are, for instance, crucial dimensions of power that do not find expression either in overt or in covert conflicts. A case in point is male authority, which clearly influences marital negotiations among heterosexual couples.
Sexualpolitikens genus i Frankrike och Sverige
Authors: Elgán Elisabeth
Published: June 2022

This comparative study, inspired by Marc Bloch, deals with the abortion and contraception politics of Sweden and France during the first half of the XXth century from a gender perspective At a discursive level the resemblance between the two countries is clear: this is the main result of this study. At this time many western countries, restricted the diffusion of contraceptives in some way and passed more efficient and abortion legislation thus increasing surveillance. The dominant view in Sweden and France, although the explicit motives for these policies were different in the two countries, was that sexuality was man's business and that it was men who were to be protected from contraception "propaganda" or to be led on the straight path to marriage and fatherhood. Nature intended women to be primarily mothers and they were therefore not seen as sexually active but instead in need of close protection, i.e. a repressive abortion law, to help them to fulfil they nature. This discourse dominated the political debates and was taken up by women politicians and women's organisations as well. The exception was the small circle of neo-malthusians and supporters of birth control. The church seems to have played very little role in these debates at this time in both Sweden and France. The discourse with respect to gender is then the same in Sweden and France, but there are some other differences that need explaining. A comparison highlights the particularities of the two countries. One of the differences is the important role played by eugenics in Sweden. The fascination exercised by medical science on politicians seems to have been particularly strong on the left wing where it was seen as a potential ally and as providing legitimisation in the struggle for a progressive social policy. Scientific thought in Sweden also seern to have been invaded by eugenics. It was very different in France where the scientists resisted eugenic ideas and stayed attached to an older belief that milieu was more important than inheritance. This belief coincided with that of the rather socially progressive and democratic French political regime of the time who hoped that upbringing and education would realise the famous dream of Liberté, Egalité, Fraternité.

Lustar och olustar
Authors: Hirdman Anja
Published: June 2022

This article discusses some of the problems with pornography, or more properly why pornography is such a problematic field for feminists. It also focuses on some of the problems to be found in anti-pornography arguments - especially their implicit understanding of female and male sexuality as two distinct areas. By seeing pornography from a media perspective - and therefore including questions of genre and modes of address - one can get a clearer view on how pornography - soft or hard - operates in different media. The expression 'the sexualising of the media', is often used as a way of understanding the fact that sexuality as a thematic mode is widespread nowadays in many different kinds of media outlet. The expression, however, implies that sexuality is an already defined area. It is more accurate, I argue, to see this development as an expression of the 'medialization' of sexuality. In mainstream media there are two different kinds of sexual discourse, which are highly gendered. Male sexuality exists within a pleasure-discourse more concerned with the actual act (how to do it and with whom). The focus is on personal satisfaction which is based in turn upon the idea of male sexuality as "natural" and unproblematic. When women are the media targets the approach is more problematic as female sexuality tends to operate and be discussed in terms of a public problem-discourse (child care, abortion, conceptions, diseases, divorce etc). The question is what is masculine about hardcore pornography and why this is seen as an exclusively male concern. I argue that it is the visual representation per se that gives pornography its gendered status. Pornography for women is both more textually based and more acceptable. Therefore, what genders a sexual material, depends not so much on its content but on its form (images or words) and the effect sought (arousal or a purchase). One of the problems with media output today is, I argue, the failure to define and address the question of female sexuality as a source of personal pleasure. Female sexuality has more of a representational form, whereby women function as erotic public symbols who are there for the pleasure and desire of others. This autoerotic pattern is evident not only in products for men but in the types of media that are aimed at a female audience such as magazines, advertisements etc.
Anställda feminister och feministiska arbetsgivare. Ett dilemma för systerskapet
Authors: Camauër Leonor
Published: June 2022

The new women's movement of the 1960s and 1970s regarded the flat, non-hierarchical organisational form as an indispensable condition for changing women's consciousness as well as society as a whole. Although it soon became clear for many women that this organisational f o rm had problems of its own (e.g. the informal leaders), the ideal of the non-hierarchical, flat structure still has its appeal, and functions as a source of strength for many groups working in the 1990s. F r om a feminist and cultural theoretical point of view this artide addresses the tensions arising between feminist employees and feminist employers within two organisations within the contemporary Swedish women's movement. The empirical material on which the article is based comes f r om a larger research project that encompassed participant observation of association meetings in the course of a year as well as life-story and group interviews. The investigation shows that one of the main reasons for the tensions between employees and employers is the clash between different interests and types of rationality. These clashes had consequences both for the achievement of the groups' goals and for the internal interaction of the groups. Demands for efficiency within the group and adaptation to institutional demands from financing bodies thus clashed with feminist goals that prescribe non-bureaucratic ways of working as well as equal participation.The actual interaction within the groups was assessed against the ideal of the flat organisation, which often led to disappointment. The artide argues for the need for feminist employees and employers to acknowledge that these two roles encompass specific interests and types of rationality which may sometimes be contradictory. It urges feminists to discuss these issues constructively and to try different and innovative ways of combining different types of rationality without giving up the overarching feminist goal.
Genus i utbildningen - tre exempel
Authors: Eriksson-Zetterquist Ulla , Svensson Eva-Maria
Published: June 2022

This article presents and discusses the view of gender in education at three departments at Gothenburg School of Economics and Commercial Law. The discussion is based upon a project among teachers at the school, financed by the Educational Government. Our experience is that the view of gender in education and it's possibilities for providing further dimensions to add to well-used pedagogical models are closely connected to the general view of science that characterises the academic subject. Resistance against change concerning introduction of gender issues increases with a more nuanced understanding of the phenomenon. Thus, the gender- as-a-variable perspective, which characterises the possihilities of introducing, gender at the Department of Statistics, encounters resistance of little value. The opinion is that gender in education is something that can unproblematically supplement today's pedagogical models. At the Department of Economic History, gender is already interwoven in the undergraduate courses as a perspective useful for the students. Still, resistance is most obvious here, since some men and women express concerns that gender takes the focus from more central and important issues. Finally, at the Department of Economics gender is seen as an interesting issue, although mostly a matter for women.
"Old Husbands' Tales": Offentlighet och privat i feministisk historia
Authors: Davidoff Leonore
Published: June 2022

Leonore Davidoff addresses the association of masculine and feminine identities with the institutional development of separate spheres, while appreciating that the terms "public" and "private" simultaneously express a constantly shifting social and psychic world. Focusing broadly on nineteenthcentury England, she proposes that gendered notions of public and private also interact with the institutions of private property and the märket, as well as with notions of rational individualism. Davidoff charts the gendered creation of various public domains that had rational man at its centre and embodied woman at the periphery. Observing that the masculine domination of the public was never unproblematic, she calls attention to nineteenth-century British womens participation in the semi-public realm of "the social" as charity workers or volunteers, and their role as feminist political activists.
Kvinnokamp på nyhetsplats år 1906 - om offentlighetens spaltformade dimensioner
Authors: Ney Birgitta
Published: June 2022

In this artide Birgitta Ney uses the news coverage of two feminist manifestations in 1906 as a starting point in order to understand one part of the public sphere and the women who worked there as reporters. One story called "a doctors' scandal" caused a group of women to arrange a meeting in Stockholm. At the meeting a number of them were appointed to conduct an investigation into the matter. The other story covered a nationwide campaign to collect signatures for women's right to vote. Both manifestations were covered by the press and Ney uses one woman reporter and her artides as an example of how the these early female journalists could turn an obligatory coverage of women's activities into a veritable feminist space on the pages of the daily newspapers. When trying to find coverage of feminist actions in the daily press at the beginning of the last century it is best to turn our attention to columns with vignettes such as "For our Ladies", or the sections called the women's page - sections of the papers which have not attracted much interest when political change in our society has been studied. Women reporters, together with the women of the feminist movement, could use these pages, it seems, as an almost under-cover space of their own only a couple of pages away from the artides traditionally labelled political in the press.
Rädslans geografi - om "privata" kvinnor och "offentliga" män
Authors: Listerborn Carina
Published: June 2022

The intensified demand for security, safety and crime prevention is creating a growing industry all over the world. Parallel with the development of crime prevention and the discussion of security measures, women's fear of male violence has been made visible. This is mostly due to women's grassroots organisations and the work of feminist researchers. Feminists have argued against the findings from previous quantitative investigations, pointing out that women experience a fear that differs from men s, due to the threat of sexual violence. This research has also increased our understanding of other groups' fears in present day society. The concepts of private and public are relevant to the discussion, because fear is strongly connected to public urban spaces. Definitions of these concepts vary, and they can be connected to spatial, legal, political, or social issues. If consideration is given to the historical context in which these concepts appear, the nature of the social organisation of the gender dichotomy in space becomes clearer. Measures to secure public safety often focus on the importance of creating a sense of community in the public space. These measures include the creating of private spheres within a public space by building enclosed spaces or providing guards. An understanding of the nature of fear and a concept of public space as multiple and complex will lead to demands for other solutions than those of creating enclosures and borderlands within the urban public space.

Published: June 2022

The Mediterranean region is facing temperature increases due to climate change. More warm conditions across the fruit and nut growing regions are expected to have a great and negative impact in Tunisian arid regions. Chilling trends among the agricultural production areas and their incidence on flowering and fruiting of typical fruit species were investigated. The results showed important declines in winter chill accumulation over the main arid production areas. This lack of chill jeopardizing the flowering and fruiting of fruit species. However, fruit species and cultivars within each fruit species expressed different flowering and fruiting behaviors to warm climate depending on their chilling and heat requirements. Consequently, thermal requirements are a key factor for sustainable fruit trees’ orchards and to select suitable cultivation area. Adoption of appropriate genetic resources could be used to mitigate the harmful effect of global warming in arid regions.

Racial diversity: A secret of high-performing school districts across the United States
Authors: Coffey Joyce , Mosqueda Melanie , Traore Ike
Published: June 2022

Objectives In this study, we aim to provide insights into the relations between racial composition and students’ academic performance in U.S. public school districts. Methods Extracting data from the Stanford Education Data Archive (SEDA), which includes longitudinal data of state testing scores over a ten-year span, we conducted descriptive and independent-samples t-tests to measure the differences in racial diversity between high- and low-performing school districts. Results The quantitative data analysis of 300 U.S. school districts showed that at any given socioeconomic level: high, low, or national-average, there is a significant difference in racial diversity between high- and low-performing school districts. Conclusion High-performing districts at all three socioeconomic levels are more racially diverse compared to low-performing districts. This reveals that contrary to the stereotype that more students of color mean lower academic performance, racial diversity of a student body translates to higher academic performance.

The Influence of Health Education and Group Therapy on Adolescent Online Gamers' Self-Concepts
Authors: Nurmagandi Boby , Hamid Achir Yani S. , Panjaitan Ria Utami
Published: June 2022

Introduction: The rapid development of online games is currently marked by the increasing number of adolescent game players. This was particularly true during the COVID-19 pandemic that forced all activities to be done at home. Adolescents who play online games excessively, however, can risk their self-concept. Adolescents’ ability to control the increasing habit of playing online games can help them reduce the risk of self-concept problems by enhancing their adaptive behavior at their crucial psychosocial development stage. Health education and group therapy can be employed to attain this goal. Aims: The authors of this study aim to determine the effectiveness of health education and group therapy regarding the self-concept of adolescents who play online games excessively. Methods: As the research design, this study applied a quasi-experimental pre-posttest with a control group. The research respondents were selected using the stratified, proportional, and simple random sampling techniques. Seventy-six adolescents comprised the respondents of this study, divided into two groups. The respondents’ inclusion criteria were adolescents aged 15–16 years old who had played online games for at least the last 12 months. Results: The self-concept of adolescents in the intervention group has increased after implementing health education and group therapy (p < .05). In contrast to this, the self-concept of adolescents in the control group has not changed after implementing health education and group therapy (p > .05). Conclusions: Health education and group therapy effectively improve the self-concept of adolescent gamers.
Walkability Drivers for Sustainable Cities: a Pedestrian Behavior Survey
Authors: Domeneghini Jennifer , Macke Janaina , Sarate João A. R.
Published: June 2022

The growth of cities often disordered brings several mobility challenges, both in guaranteeing public transport and creating pedestrian-friendly urban spaces. This paper aims to identify the walkability drivers in urban areas and investigate walkability behavior. The survey was carried out in southern Brazil, with a sample of 439 respondents. Data were subject to factorial analysis, regression analysis, and variance analysis. The analysis revealed four walkability drivers that explain pedestrian behavior: (i) infrastructure, (ii) traffic conditions and behavior, (iii) built and natural environments, and (iv) social relations. The results show that built and natural environments and social relations were the most significant aspects in explaining walkability’s overall perception. Concerning socio-demographic aspects, the study points out that (i) men feel safer than women when walking in the neighborhood; (ii) the presence of trees and attractive places along the street increases the walking behavior of non-sedentary people; and (iii) the perception of the neighborhood’s beauty increases with age. The research provides contributions regarding understanding the interrelated aspects of walkability behavior. Finally, the study offers relevant evidence for social researchers and urban planners by identifying walkability drivers and supporting political and academic debate elements.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of the architectural application of nature’s (AAN) components in improving the quality of semantic depth in Iranian urban housing to determine the most effective architectural indicators in this context. This research uses a mixed methodology in terms of the data’s nature, and the research method is descriptive-analytical (causal and comparative). The components and indicators related to the AAN have been collected through the study of theoretical foundations and literature review. To determine the relationship between these components and the semantic depth variable in housing design, the method of logical reasoning has been employed. Data were collected through a questionnaire with the participation of 96 occupants of Phase 1 of Ekbatan residential town, to determine the perceived quality of research variables. The results of regression analysis on quantitative data confirm the research hypothesis regarding the key role of maintaining the principle of spatial hierarchy in increasing the possibility of understanding the semantic layers in housing that most of them exist due to the presence of various manifestations of nature.
Evaluation of Adaptive Reuse in the Context of Sustainability: Cases from Kastamonu, Türkiye
Authors: Karakuş Filiz
Published: June 2022

Changes in today's living and comfort conditions negatively affect the use of historical buildings in accordance with their original functions, and as a result, these buildings can become idle. It is very important to preserve and maintain the original identities of historical buildings, as they carry the accumulation of the period in which they were built, which is an important element of the urban identity. With the adaptive reuse method, historical buildings that have lost their original functions are given a function again, these structures are revived, and their sustainability is ensured. This study uses the survey data of five historical khans in Kastamonu to reveal the success of adaptive reuse practices and their contribution to the sustainability of the historical environment. It includes analyzes made in the sample area, on-site examinations and observations, archive and literature review. The research shows that some of the adaptive reuses are made without considering the spatial and structural features of the existing structures and that the applications are not suitable for the material and color texture of the structures. For this reason, adaptive reuse studies should be well analyzed and implemented by authorized institutions and organizations both in the project and restoration stages. The study is important in terms of determining criteria for evaluating adaptive reuse in terms of international standards and evaluating adaptive reuse applications in Kastamonu historical city center within the framework of these criteria and emphasizing the problems.

The main aim of this research was to apply biopolymer coatings on osmotically dehydrated mushrooms and monitor their quality during storage. Mushrooms were osmotically dehydrated in sugar beet molasses (80% dry matter) under optimized conditions (45 °C for 5 hours), as previously reported elsewhere. Two different biopolymers were chosen: chitosan, a polysaccharide polymer, and zein, a protein polymer. A non-treated mushroom sample was chosen as a control sample. The mushroom samples were analysed for sugar and protein content, as well as water loss and microbiological profile. An increase in sugar content was the most noticeable in the osmotically dehydrated mushrooms compared to the control sample due to the use of molasses as a hypertonic solution. The contribution of used biopolymer coatings to the sugar and protein content of the coated and osmotically treated mushrooms was negligible. Chitosan coating contributed to better storage stability of treated mushrooms by lowering the moisture loss and microbial count. For this reason, chitosan treated sample was chosen for further examination related to the evaluation of its baking potential as a filling in a traditional stuffed pie-like layered bakery product-burek. Burek was stuffed with fresh mushrooms, osmotically treated mushrooms or osmotically treated mushrooms coated with chitosan. The sensorial assessment proved that control burek and burek samples with osmotically dehydrated mushrooms coated with chitosan were the most preferred groups based on odour and overall impression.

Pesquisas sobre sensação térmica e conforto humano em regiões naturalmente quentes como o Semiárido brasileiro são de grande importância uma vez que se referem ao bem-estar, desempenho físico, saúde humana e qualidade de vida da população. Neste sentido, a presente pesquisa se propôs a monitorar a temperatura e a sensação térmica em uma microrregião geográfica do estado do Rio Grande do Norte, o Seridó potiguar, por meio de dados meteorológicos de estações de superfície, de imagens de Satélite e através da aplicação de índices bioclimáticos voltados para o conforto térmico humano. Os dados meteorológicos foram adquiridos junto ao Instituto nacional de meteorologia - INMET. A coleta de dados da temperatura superficial foi adquirida através de imagens orbitais do Satélite Landsat 8, correspondente à faixa do infravermelho termal. Os índices de conforto térmico aplicados à área de estudo foram o Índice de Desconforto (ID) e o Índice de Temperatura Efetiva (TE). Os resultados mostraram o predomínio de altas temperaturas diárias, mensais e anuais, com médias superiores aos 26°C, ocasionando desconforto térmico na região em praticamente todos os meses do ano. Os índices bioclimáticos indicaram que a população seridoense está sujeita ao desconforto pela exposição frequente às altas temperaturas. Valores superiores aos 36°C ocorrem constantemente nos meses mais quentes do ano (setembro-novembro) em ~76,5% nos terrenos da Depressão Sertaneja do Seridó potiguar. Os resultados encontrados apontam para a importância do desenvolvimento de mais pesquisas climáticas focadas no conforto térmico humano no semiárido brasileiro, bem como de pesquisas voltadas às possibilidades de arrefecimento em áreas urbana e rurais, em especial na depressão sertaneja.

A análise da velocidade e direção dos ventos durante os períodos secos e chuvosos constitui-se como uma poderosa ferramenta em projetos agronômicos, monitoramento e gestão de bacias hidrográficas, geração de energia eólica, entre outros. O objetivo do presente estudo foi analisar as velocidades e direções predominantes dos ventos durante os períodos secos e chuvosos na Bacia Hidrográfica Litorânea do Rio Grande do Sul (RS). A metodologia baseou-se em artigos científicos sobre a variável climatológica vento, em recomendações da Agência Nacional de Águas e Saneamento Básico (ANA) e do Sistema de Meteorologia e Hidrologia do Estado de Goiás (SIMEHGO). Os dados climatológicos utilizados foram cedidos pelo Instituto Nacional de Meteorologia (INMET), referente aos municípios pertencentes a Bacia Hidrográfica Litorânea - RS. Os resultados mostram que a bacia apresenta um comportamento predominantemente seco, com período chuvoso apenas nos meses de janeiro e fevereiro, e com direção do vento incidente predominantemente nordeste (NE). Em relação as velocidades, estas variaram entre 0,9 m.s-1 a 6,1 m.s-1, sendo que as velocidades máximas registradas em alguns municípios se caracterizaram como princípio de tornado (valores acima de 17 m.s-1). As velocidades médias já não possuem grande poder de destruição, ao contrário das máximas registradas conforme a escala de desastres eólicos – Escala Anemométrica Internacional de Beaufort. De forma geral, conclui-se que a Bacia Hidrográfica Litorânea se comporta de maneira bastante uniforme.

Published: June 2022

A drenagem de águas pluviais contribui significativamente para a melhoria na qualidade de vida da população que vive na região beneficiada, diminuindo alagamentos, transportando a água captada para os devidos cursos hídricos naturais e, inclusive, minimizando o risco de contaminação de diversas doenças de veiculação hídrica. Com essa premissa, objetivou-se prospectar um dimensionamento de técnicas sustentáveis de escoamento superficial, para a área Mansões Paraíso, Gama/DF. O dimensionamento foi feito pelo método racional, para a Bacia de Detenção, enquanto, para as Trincheiras de Infiltração, foi utilizado o Modelo Unidimensional Horizontal de Philip, obtendo-se volumes precipitados de 12,1m³, 13,2m³, 2,4m³ e 9m³ para as Trincheiras 1, 2, 3 e 4, respectivamente. Foi possível, anda, determinar as dimensões dessas quatro Trincheiras, sendo 1,175x1,15x20,0m³; 1,25x1,20x20m³; 1,10x1,00x5,00m³ e 1,00x1,00x20m³ para as Trincheiras 1, 2, 3 e 4, respectivamente. Já para a Bacia de Detenção, obteve-se um dispositivo de, aproximadamente, 122m³, com 5,00x2,00x,12,20m³ de dimensões. Tais projeções tiveram como base estudos realizados em solos com características semelhantes às da área de estudo. Com estas propostas de dimensionamento, pôde-se concluir que o dimensionamento foi feito de forma proveitosa. Assim, as propostas de dimensionamento podem vir a contribuir para melhoria da região, minimizando os alagamentos nos períodos chuvosos e maximizando a qualidade da área de estudo permitindo, por exemplo, viabilizar a área para possível regularização.
