Authors:   Yakovlev Chuvash State Pedagogical University, Alexeeva Marina G. , Frolova Vera A. ,   Yakovlev Chuvash State Pedagogical University
Published: September 2023

This article analyzes the headlines of vitamin de magazine as an image forming tool, which contributes to the formation of the idea of Germany as one of the best educational centres in Europe, for foreign students as well. A headline, as the substantive and intentional core of the whole magazine article, is able to convey the image of the country and its values relevant to the 12+ readership. The study showed that the features of the magazine such as Another View, Country Studies, Life, Vitamin de in Regions, Dialogue, Profession, German Inventors, Tradition, Psychological Test, Recipe, (Professional) Training generate the image characteristics of the country of the target language. The headlines of the articles in these features create an image of Germany as a country with an advantageous geographical position, a country with rich cultural traditions and values accepted by the Russian audience. Headlines about joint German-Russian educational, creative and environmental activities, accessible to all age groups of Russian youth, contribute significantly to the image of Germany as a country with a high research potential, where theory and practice are inextricably linked. The image properties of Germany, practically ideological paradigms “outwardly” directed, are critically reinterpreted in the headlines of those articles in which students with the experience of living in the country share their impressions. Thus, a more realistic view of the destination country with educational objectives is created. Another View feature, as the results of the study show, is designed to balance the ideal and the realistic picture of the country of the target language.
Guanxi como prática organizacional e estímulo à adaptação intercultural: experiências de grandes empresas exportadoras para a China
Authors: Soares Soraya de Souza , Scherer Flavia Luciane , Hahn Ivanete Schneider , Pivetta Natália Pavanelo
Published: September 2023

Objetivo: Este estudo buscou compreender como as empresas brasileiras que exportam para a China desenvolvem o Guanxi como prática organizacional e como essas empresas podem utilizar o Guanxi como estímulo para a adaptação intercultural e diminuir a distância psíquica entre Brasil e China.
Método: Trata-se de um estudo de caso múltiplo por meio de entrevistas em profundidade e pesquisa de dados secundários de três grandes empresas exportadoras de carne para a China. Além disso, realizaram-se entrevistas com dez especialistas que possuem experiência no assunto. A análise dos dados foi feita por meio da análise de conteúdo, apoiada pelo software ATLAS.ti.
Principais Resultados: Os resultados mostram que: os fatores de distância psíquica entre Brasil e China são administração (e questões de legislação), desenvolvimento econômico e industrial e cultura; para lidar com esses fatores, as empresas mostram que conhecem e fazem uso extensivo do Guanxi; o Guanxi é efetivamente apresentado como prática organizacional e como estímulo à adaptação intercultural e à minimização das barreiras da distância psíquica.
Relevância / Originalidade: O estudo trouxe uma contribuição para a área de Negócios Internacionais ao destacar a incorporação do Guanxi como prática organizacional entre as empresas que operam na China e levantar questões sobre o valor cultural, o futuro do Guanxi e a existência de distância psíquica nas negociações. As descobertas têm implicações práticas, pois auxiliam os empresários brasileiros na definição de estratégias de exportação para a China.
Contribuições Teóricas / Metodológicas: O estudo apresenta uma contribuição essencial para a teoria visto que o Guanxi é uma prática já incorporada por empresas que lidam com a China. Surgem novas questões, como: até que ponto a China é hoje um país que ainda valoriza a cultura (e o Guanxi) e quanto é um país de negócios (focado em resultados, como os países europeus e americanos)? Como será Guanxi no futuro? Ele deixará de existir ou adotará outra abordagem? Ainda existe uma distância psíquica precisa entre os países nas negociações internacionais? Ou seriam diferenças culturais, mas que as empresas internacionalizadas buscam reduzir na hora dos negócios?
Impact of stand on biomass and species diversity of herb layer in mountain forests of Southern Urals
Authors:   Institute Botanical Garden of the Ural Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Ivanova N.S.
Published: September 2023

The effect of the stand composition and age of subclimax and secondary forests on the biomass and species diversity of the herb layer in the most common forest type in the western low mountains of the Southern Urals (spruce small-grass-green-moss forests) was investigated. It was found that all of the criteria investigated as species richness of plant community, biomass of herb layer, biodiversity estimated on the basis of Shannon, Pielu, Simpson indices showed high sensitivity to the age and composition of the stand. We found that the graphical models we developed can be used to combine with forest inventory data to obtain large-scale data on biomass and biodiversity of subordinate layers of subclimax and secondary forests in the shallow grass-green-mossy spruce forest type of western low mountains of the Southern Urals.
Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) cone formation under changing climate

On the example of a number of provenances of the Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) of 39 years of age, growing in provenance tests of the Arkhangelsk region (62°54΄ n. w.), as well as natural plantings, the reaction of morfometric indicators of mature macrostrobiles (cones) is shown to change the climatic conditions of growth. It is shown that the formation of cones in the offspring of the provenance of Scots pine from the Murmansk region (67°51΄ s. w.) and from the Leningrad region (60°00΄ s. sh.) occurs with morphometric deviations associated with a reaction to simulated warming or cooling compared to the location of the original plantings. The manifestation of a response to both warming and cooling has been established in direct and derived indicators of cones and their structural parts, as well as in the form diversity of cones. The manifestations of different levels of genetic control over the response of linear and mass indicators during the formation of cones in altered environmental conditions are shown, which can lead to a change in the density of the cone tissues. It is proved that during climatic changes, the parameters of cones will change — weight, size, with relative preservation of morphotypes (apophysis forms), which can lead to a change in the number of fertile seed scales, their dimension and affect the yield of seeds. It has been established that the reaction of the scots pine to climatic changes by the vegetative and generative spheres shows its rather similar direction of manifestation during cooling and warming, and can be associated with both the characteristics of populations and their geographical location in the area of the breed.
ENTRE AS DESCONTINUIDADES E AS PERMANÊNCIAS
Authors: Carvalho Caio da Silva
Published: September 2023

crítico literário Giorgio Agamben (2007, p. 10) definiu a condição de contemporâneo como a capacidade de se orientar, mesmo no escuro, para, “a partir daí, ter coragem de reconhecer e de se comprometer com um presente com o qual não é possível coincidir” Ser contemporâneo é, portanto, a tentativa de caminhar por solos cada vez mais imprecisos, fragmentados e maleáveis, sem, não obstante, deixar de (re)conhecer as demandas necessárias do tempo no qual o sujeito se encontra. Dessa maneira, este trabalho tem o objetivo de analisar a obra Rabo de foguete, de Ferreira Gullar, cujo enredo se concentra nas memórias de exílio do autor no contexto de Ditadura Militar, sob a ótica de uma (re)formação de estilo literário pautado nas nuances que envolvem as descontinuidades e/ou permanências que envolvem a contemporaneidade. Assim, o texto pensa algumas nuances da literatura brasileira contemporânea, como o protagonismo de um indivíduo num tempo de quebra tecido social, ao passo que tenta mostrar os aspectos estilísticos e temáticos que envolvem a heterogeneidade e a disposição das formas de um (novo) realismo. Por meio de uma pesquisa qualitativa e bibliográfica, as análises são baseadas em autores como Giorgio Agamben (2007), Karl Eric Schollhammer (2009), Tânia Pelegrini (2001) e Ítalo Moriconi (2001), de modo a pensar como o autor-narrador-personagem Ferreira Gullar se pauta como um ser contemporâneo, em uma escrita contemporânea, em torno dos estilos, abordagens e temáticas por entre o entrecho de Rabo de foguete.
LITERATURA E AUTOBIOGRAFIA EM JORGE AMADO
Authors: Sousa Douglas Rodrigues de , Lopes David Lucas de Freitas
Published: September 2023

No âmbito literário, os gêneros autobiográfico e biográfico conquistaram notoriedade no decorrer do século XX, despertando interesse em estudiosos da literatura. Nesse contexto, teóricos franceses como Philippe Lejeune foram responsáveis por desenvolverem estudos críticos acerca do gênero, buscando estabelecer a relação intrínseca entre o autor e a obra. Partindo dessa perspectiva, o objetivo deste estudo é refletir e estabelecer apontamentos a respeito da relação entre Jorge Amado e o gênero autobiográfico, tendo como base sua obra Navegação de Cabotagem (1992). Por meio da análise das memórias expostas pelo autor neste livro, pretendemos identificar indícios autobiográficos que possam ser utilizados para aprofundar a compreensão da literatura amadiana. Observou-se que, nesta obra, Jorge Amado busca se afastar da concepção tradicional de escrita de memórias e autobiografias, recusando-se a seguir uma linearidade narrativa e uma ordenação cronológica dos fatos. Dessa forma, Navegação de Cabotagem (1992) apresenta-se como uma retrospectiva da vida do autor, desde sua intimidade até a formulação de seus escritos. Para alcançar esse objetivo, a presente pesquisa irá se concentrar nos campos autobiográfico e literário, tendo como referencial teórico autores como Lejeune (2014), Candido (2000), Sousa (2022) e Salah (2008). Pretendemos, assim, evidenciar algumas particularidades presentes na tradição literária de Jorge Amado, que manifestou em suas obras, especialmente em Navegação de Cabotagem, interessantes histórias sobre si mesmo e sobre seu processo de escrita. Dessa forma, a pesquisa irá se pautar em uma análise minuciosa da obra, identificando elementos autobiográficos e estabelecendo relações entre esses elementos e a literatura produzida por Jorge Amado.
HISTORIOGRAFIA

Published: September 2023

As circunstâncias político-econômicas do período ditatorial no Brasil imprimiram suas marcas em todos os setores da vida artístico-literária e cultural. Dentre os autores de narrativas ficcionais que tematizam tais circunstâncias, todavia, poucos alcançaram registro nos principais compêndios de história da literatura brasileira pós-64, como os de Alfredo Bosi (1970), Massaud Moisés (1984-87), Luciana Picchio (1996), José Aderaldo Castello (1999) e Carlos Nejar (2011). Os compêndios reconhecem, adequadamente, a relevância de autores cujo lavor artístico manifesta-se em plenitude, como Clarice Lispector, Raduan Nassar e Osman Lins, ou de escritores como Jorge Amado, Lygia Fagundes Telles e Rubem Fonseca, dentre outros que por diversos motivos alcançaram um público numeroso e fiel. Todavia, poucos são os registros de obras voltadas para a temática da repressão, envolvendo violência, tortura e desaparecimentos políticos. Não houve produção volumosa nessa linha e talvez os escritores tivessem pouca preocupação com o estilo e a linguagem, pois boa parte deles teve por motivação a denúncia dos traumas vividos. Poucas foram as obras publicadas “no calor da hora”, como Em câmara lenta (Renato Tapajós, 1977); outras vieram a público logo após a anistia, em um contexto ainda turbulento, como O que é isso, companheiro? (Fernando Gabeira, 1979) e Batismo de Sangue (Frei Betto, 1983), permanecendo praticamente à margem da história literária brasileira. É surpreendente constatar que, nos decênios seguintes, a mesma temática continuou a produzir frutos que em tempos recentes alcançam inesperada repercussão, como ocorreu com K. Relato de uma busca (Bernardo Kucinski, 2011) ou A resistência (Julián Fuks, 2015). Tais retomadas asseguram uma sobrevida à reflexão, no âmbito da ficção (e, espera-se, na história literária) sobre danos irreparáveis produzidos pelo regime de exceção, que contribuíram – ao contrário do que um certo discurso “oficial” afirmava até recentemente – para a violência, a insegurança e o desrespeito à dignidade do ser humano que se verificam em nosso país na atualidade.
DO “BARÃO” IMPERIAL AOS VENTOS DA “ANGÉLICA” REPÚBLICA

Published: September 2023

O artigo busca examinar a construção do espaço em O monstro, de Josué Montello, como lugar de memória, a partir do ambiente ficcional representado pelo lar da personagem Jerônimo. Para tanto, adotam-se as concepções de lar, de Relph (2014), de casa, de Bachelard (2008), de topofilia, apinhamento e espaciosidade, de Tuan (2012;2013), de memória, a partir de Halbwachs (1990), Pollak (1992) e Ricoeur (2007), e de lugar de memória, de Nora (1993), além do olhar de Cândido (2009) sobre a personagem de ficção e o sentido do real. A narrativa versa sobre a história de Jerônimo, solteiro convicto, que sai da Bahia para o Rio de Janeiro em busca de uma vida pacífica de funcionário público, paz que é abalada com a chegada de sua mãe, Angélica, que altera toda a dinâmica da sua casa e dos rumos da sua vida. Trabalha-se sobre a ideia da construção metafórica de uma disputa entre uma reminiscência imperial e os novos ares republicanos, contexto em que a obra se situa no tempo histórico brasileiro, buscando observar de que maneira o espaço do lar de Jerônimo corresponde à construção de um lugar de memória imperial, em contraposição às alterações empreendidas nesse ambiente por sua mãe.
REPRESENTAÇÕES DE UM PASSADO QUE ECOA NO PRESENTE
Authors: Pinheiro Maria Iranilde Almeida Costa , Marques Deyse Filgueiras Batista
Published: September 2023

O corpo interminável (2019) é um romance contemporâneo escrito pela autora brasileira Claudia Lage, e seu enredo envolve indivíduos que estão inseridos no contexto de vivência ou herança da experiência da ditadura militar no Brasil. Trata-se, portanto, de uma obra literária que evidencia a necessidade de escrita de eventos catastróficos e na qual existe a busca por um passado que, embora calado, permanece vívido, pois ainda ressoa por meio de ausências, vazios e memórias lacunares. Assim, esta pesquisa questiona a possibilidade de, a partir da análise de O corpo interminável, identificarmos uma construção ficcional que evidencia, em suas formas estéticas e narrativas, a história individual e coletiva da ditadura militar no Brasil. Buscamos enfatizar, diante do corpus literário e dessa chave de leitura, os dilemas nascidos a partir da relevância do testemunho de sujeitos impactados por uma catástrofe nacional, parte de um enredo que mobiliza aspectos estéticos e narrativos para alcançar as experiências traumáticas da ditadura militar brasileira. Para tanto, tomamos como referencial teórico Assunção (2020), Ginzburg (2017) e Gagnebin (2018; 2019). Ao final do trabalho, esperamos contribuir para a caracterização política e literária do romance, pois, ao explorar a estética do horror produzida em O corpo interminável, acreditamos ser possível vislumbrar arelevância da representação de eventos políticos autoritários na literatura brasileira contemporânea.

This article focuses on the assessment of the credibility of the witnesses’ testimony. Conway model of autobiographical memory, and the theory of incorrect attribution sources indicates that our memory is based both on the original record of events and on additional information. If the new information is incorrect, the memory may become distorted. In the first part of the article are described mechanisms of autobiographical memory, which can lead to distortions of the original memory trace. The second part are devoted to empirical verification of the hypothesis that the media information distorts the eyewitness memory of an event.

Tu i teraz, bez obaw i oczekiwań. Praktyka medytacyjna a orientacja temporalna
Authors: Rydzewska Magdalena
Published: September 2023

The article is focused on the relationship between meditation, degree of involvement in the practice and temporal orientation, in particular active concentration on present time called “Carpe diem”. Two hypotheses are tested: a) Practitioners, as compared to nonpractitioners, are presenting significantly higher active concentration on the present and lower orientation on the past, future and present fatalistic orientation; b) If involvement in meditation increases, active concentration on the present also increases. A survey has been carried out on a group of 160 practitioners of Karma Kagyu linage of Tibetan Buddhism in Poland and a group of 100 nonpractitioners. The results suggest, practitioners are more actively focused on present time and this active concentration increases with involvement in meditation.

The article is a report of studies on the relationship between social support and the effectiveness of treatment for diabetes in youth. The aim of this study was to answer the question whether between patients with different treatment outcome differences in perceived social support. The study were 100-strong group of diabetics aged 16–18 years (50 girls and 50 boys), which has been assigned to groups of varying effectiveness of diabetes management. Adopted two criteria for allocation of subjects into groups: 1) the level of self-control of diabetes measured by the scale of „Treatment of Diabetes”(LC), 2) the degree of metabolic control measured by HbA1c. To measure the social support Sarason’s Social Support Questionnaire was used. Analysis of test results does not reveal significant differences in social support among patients with high and low self-control. In patients with varying degrees of metabolic control of diabetes patients with poor treatment outcome perceive less social support network (p < 0.05), but they are more satisfied with it (p < 0.01) than patients with good control of diabetes. In addition, the length of morbidity of diabetes is moderately, negatively correlated with the network of support and the degree of satisfaction with the aid received.
Religion and Worldviews in English schools, Study of Religions, and disciplinary knowledge.
Authors: Cush Denise
Published: September 2023

Since the publication of the Commission on RE report for England in 2018, there has been much discussion of the concept of ‘disciplinary knowledge’ and of which academic disciplines underpin the school subject commonly called Religious Education (RE) e.g. Kueh (2018, 2020); Georgiou and Wright (2020). Study of Religions was notable for its absence. Against these and other more outspoken critics such as Barnes, this article argues for the simple answer, which would seem obvious to members of BASR, the university discipline known as Study of Religions, or previously and more ambiguously, Religious Studies (cf Alberts, Jensen). This is not however to accept that Religion and Worldviews in schools is merely a watered-down version of SR at university level, or that other disciplines including philosophy or even theology cannot make useful contributions. Future RE needs to build upon the insights of the Commission, the Worldviews Project and other recent projects such ‘Big Ideas’ to construct a vibrant and memorable curriculum which is both academically rigorous and personally inspiring, providing students with the knowledge and skills they need not only for the few who choose Study of Religions at university, but transferable to the many situations in which they will find themselves in in later life, both professional and personal.
“Lost in Translation”: How Colonialism Shaped Modern Sikh Identity
Authors: Sangu Vishal
Published: September 2023

This article traces the interactions and influence of colonialism on Sikh identity. The specific focus will be between 1870-1920, when Sikh identity was reforming under the Singh Sabha movements. Arguing the “World Religion” understanding of “Sikhism” is a de-political, private, and colonial construct. Focusing on decolonisation of thought and advocating the understanding of Sikhi as a religious-political (Miri/Piri), decolonial, lived identity. This is done through tracing colonial scholarship, Sikh scholarship, and theories and understandings in Religious Studies. Tracing how colonialism affects Sikh identity through primary research focusing on the effects of texts, translations, ideas, language, and understandings from the colonial era and the issues that has for the Sikh diaspora. Arguing the translations of Sikh scriptures by Ernest Trumpp (1877) was catastrophic for understanding Sikh identity. It argues the needed reaction to the defamatory comments made by Ernest Trumpp has led to the modern formation of “Sikhism” in line with the Protestant model of religion. This idea of “Sikhism” is detrimental to Sikh identity as it separates the boundaries between religion and the secular. This article advocates use of a vernacular approach to the study of religion to advocate for decolonisation of Religious Studies through qualitative methods of research, investigating the effects of colonial language and texts of Sikh scriptures has on the Sikh diaspora. Calling for a process of decolonisation through presenting the affects the colonial period has on Sikh religion.
A Witchcraft-related cases in India during the Outbreak of Covid 19 Pandemic
Authors: Spanò Igor
Published: September 2023

Abstract

In India the belief in witches is a phenomenon that is linked to specific elements both of Hindu cults, whose devotional expressions and folkloric elements are rooted in the Vedic texts, and the belief systems of some indigenous communities. Indeed, although influenced by the expressions of the Hindu faith, these groups have retained specific characteristics, in which magical elements like the relationship with evil powers, from which the belief in witchcraft practices derives, are paramount. However, a study of witch-hunting episodes must also consider the social dimension in which they occur, as scholars working on this subject over the last decades did. Most witch hunts occur within closed social systems, based on patriarchy (or which have undergone patriarchalization processes in recent decades) and affected by Hinduization and tribalization. Finally, the analysis of beliefs in witchcraft helps to unveil the power relations that underlie these beliefs. On the one hand, this paper aims to reflect on the religious roots of the belief in witches, without neglecting the possible interpretations just mentioned above; on the other hand, it aims to present an initial assessment of the incidence of the phenomenon in 2020, at a particularly dramatic historical moment marked by the outbreak of the Covid 19 pandemic. The data presented are partial but indicative as they have been collected through daily monitoring of the main Indian newspapers in English and some national and local newspapers in Hindi.
Pérdida de bosques amazónicos por expansión urbana en el Perú
Authors: Moschella Paola
Published: September 2023

Se estudia la ocupación de las zonas periurbanas de las ocho ciudades amazónicas de mayor tamaño y su afectación a la conservación de bosques con el fin de identificar las condiciones que se relacionan con una mayor o menor pérdida de bosques periurbanos. Para ello, se realiza el análisis comparativo de indicadores demográficos y espaciales, así como el análisis espacial del crecimiento urbano reciente sobre zonas forestales. Además, se discuten los desafíos para la conservación de bosques periurbanos a partir de las principales dinámicas territoriales y los mecanismos existentes para la planificación y gestión del territorio. Se identifica que la mayor presión del crecimiento de las ciudades sobre los bosques periurbanos se relaciona principalmente a procesos migratorios y dinámicas económicas regionales ligadas a actividades de minería y turismo. Asimismo, la tendencia a la reducción de la densidad de población y vivienda en las nuevas zonas de expansión y el incremento de la oferta inmobiliaria de residencia secundaria resultan en una amenaza para la sostenibilidad. Las carreteras periurbanas concentran las áreas de deforestación y futura expansión urbana, por lo que es necesario mejorar los mecanismos de evaluación de impacto ambiental de la infraestructura vial y concentrar los esfuerzos en medidas de gestión sostenible del territorio en estas zonas.

Authors: Barik Pabitra , Saharan Neelam , Krishnani Kishore Kumar , Vardia Hemendra Kumar , Sharma Rupam , Malik Mohd Ashraf
Published: September 2023

Background: Aquaculture is one of the most rapidly expanding food production sectors. Due to intensification, declining water quality parameters negatively impact fish production and the surrounding environment. Thus, it is essential to maintain optimum water quality parameters and aquatic ecosystems for sustainable fish production. This study aims to synthesize nanoparticles (NPs) and evaluate their efficiency against ammonia in cultured fish tanks under diverse conditions. Methods: Bacillus megaterium from the soil sample was isolated and identified. Iron oxide NPs were synthesized using Bacillus megaterium collected from soil samples and characterized by DLS-zeta potential, UV-vis, XRD, FTIR and TEM analysis. Next, synthesized NPs were evaluated under ex-situ and in-situ conditions to determine their efficacy in removing ammonia from Common carp, Cyprinus carpio culture tanks. Results: B. megaterium was isolated, identified, and 16S rRNA gene PCR-amplified sequences confirm the identification of B megaterium. DLS-zeta potential, UV-vis, XRD, FTIR and TEM analysis revealed the quality of synthesized NPs. B. megaterium from the soil sample was isolated and identified. The mean zeta potential of the biosynthesized NPs was between -4.65 to -6.45 mV and had an average size of 5 nm. The concentration of ammonia in aerated tanks treated with iron NPs reduced to less than 0.03 mg/dL from 0.3 mg/L. Also, fish mortality in these tanks was significantly controlled with the application of NPs. The application of NPs considerably reduced fish mortality in these fish tanks. Iron oxide NPs from B. megaterium can produce high-quality NPs that are efficient in removing ammonia from fish culture tanks. Further, exploratory studies are necessary to determine the efficacy of iron oxide NPs on aquatic organisms cultured in different environments.

Published: September 2023

Background: With the advancement of green revolution over 3-4 decades, the production and productivity of crop is decreasing with reduction in soil productivity in terms of nutritional disorders, micronutrient deficiencies, poor soil physical condition, and livelihood supporting systems. In view of this, natural and organic agriculture systems emerged as an alternative to the chemical oriented agriculture systems. Organic farming and organically produced food products are gaining popularity very rapidly in India and world. To trounce the reliance on chemical fertilizers for crop production and to reduce cost of production experiments were conducted to know the effect of different management practices on Blackgram. Methods: The field experiments were conducted with randomized complete block design with 4 replications. Effects of these different crop management practices were evaluated on growth, yield parameters, yield and nutrient status of blackgram (TAU-1) was carried out during kharif 2019, 2020 and 2021. Results: Results showed that package of practice recorded significantly higher growth, yield attributes and yields in blackgram followed by organic farming and farmers practice over three years. It can be concluded that practicing organic farming and natural farming over the years there will be sustainability in food production compared to initial years.

Limitación de recursos e invisibilidad en medios durante las campañas electorales como forma de violencia política contra las mujeres en razón de género
Authors: Castrejón Mata Carmen , Pérez Castrejón Sandra Karime
Published: September 2023

Durante el proceso electoral 2017-2018 en Celaya, Guanajuato, México las manifestaciones de violencia política contra las mujeres participantes se evidenciaron por medio de agresiones verbales, difusión de imágenes, palabras denigrantes en redes sociales y medios de comunicación, lo cual da cuenta de que se siguen reforzando los estereotipos de género respecto a la participación política de las mujeres. El objetivo era identificar cuáles eran estos estereotipos de género que existen respecto a su participación en la vida política desde los mismos integrantes de esta esfera política, los medios de comunicación y la sociedad civil. Este trabajo acude al enfoque cualitativo con un diseño de investigación de Teoría Fundamentada, en este estudio se acudió a las siguientes técnicas: entrevista semiestructurada, entrevista a profundidad, diario de campo, revisión y análisis documental. La muestra estuvo conformada por mujeres que participaron por algún cargo de elección popular durante el proceso electoral 2017-2018 como presidencia municipal, regiduría y diputación local. Se encontró que la normalización de la violencia se presenta también en los espacios políticos y esto puede llegar a dificultar los procesos para reconocer la violencia y denunciarla, ya que, una vez que las mujeres víctimas de algún tipo de violencia generalmente son revictimizadas y estigmatizadas por las propias instituciones y muchas veces por la sociedad. La violencia contra las mujeres traspasa diferentes espacios: doméstico, comunitario, laboral, institucional y político.
Rediseño de la intersección de la av. Morales Duares y la av. Dueñas, distrito de Cercado de Lima para optimizar el tiempo de viaje de los vehículos de transporte público

Published: September 2023

La siguiente investigación tiene como objetivo reducir el tiempo de viaje proponiendo un rediseño geométrico a la intersección semaforizada de la Av. Morales duarez y la Av. Dueñas, en el distrito de Cercado de Lima Uno de las razones del porqué analizar esta intersección, es que origina gran congestión vehicular en el transporte público desde tempranas horas del día, el cual es el horario particular de muchos usuarios que se dirigen a su destino de trabajo, ya que esta intersección es de paso obligatorio para poder conectar con distritos comerciales y empresariales como, Lince, San isidro, Jesús Maria y Miraflores. Esta situación se repite al terminar el día laboral de muchos usuarios (desde las 6 pm hasta las 8 y 30 pm aproximadamente) A esto se le agrega que actualmente existe un pilar de by pass de concreto situada en el medio de la intersección, que origina que los vehículos realicen maniobras, y a esto sumado la escasa planificación urbana que posee esta zona, provoca muchos conflictos en la intersección y alterando la operación del flujo vehicular en la misma.

El presente trabajo propone la creación de un sistema electrónico prototipo basado en algoritmos de procesamiento de imagen para el control de calidad de tejido plano que va a permitir la detección de tres tipos de fallas (Agujeros, Bultos y Manchas) en los procesos textiles. Este sistema prototipo está creado de tal forma que sea adaptable y escalable a las empresas textiles. La puesta en marcha de este proyecto mitiga el riesgo que supone el factor humano en el proceso de control de calidad, el cual es el principal problema del cliente debido a la baja confiabilidad que genera el cansancio mental y físico el operador en comparación a un sistema electrónico automático que no posee una relación precisión-cansancio en su funcionamiento. Actualmente existen soluciones a muy elevado costo para empresas textiles de pequeñas y mediana envergadura. La literatura científica propone algunas soluciones con algoritmos de procesamiento, Deep-learning y redes convolucionales. La presente solución propone una fusión entre hardware y software. El hardware abarca un computador de placa reducida y los elementos para el control de la cámara, iluminación y el motor mientras el software se basa en Python, que es un lenguaje de código abierto y se compone de algoritmos de procesamiento digital de imágenes de baja carga computacional de las imágenes obtenidas, las cuales serán manipuladas a través de segmentación y umbralización, el cual emitirá resultados rápidamente con una alta confiabilidad para la localización y reconocimiento de las fallas en las telas de diferentes tonalidades y colores. La validación y viabilidad del proyecto estuvo a cargo de la Ingeniera especialista del rubro textil, verificándose un porcentaje de confiabilidad mayor al 92% en la detección de defectos textiles con una velocidad de detección de 15.68 m/min en promedio.

On the influence of unilateral bonds on the stability and oscillations of elastic rings
Authors: Andryukova V.
Published: September 2023

The paper deals with the issues of stability of a circular ring

compressed by uniformly distributed central forces in the

presence of one-sided restrictions on displacements. In the

second part of the article, the problem of oscillations of a ring

supported by single-acting threads is solved. The problems

are reduced to solving some variational problem under restrictions

on the desired functions in the form of linear equations

and inequalities
Spaces of constant curvatere, the Liouville equation and contractions of Lie algebras
Authors: Kostyakov I. , Kuratov V.
Published: September 2023

The Liouville equation is equivalent to the two-dimensional

Laplace equation and is reduced to it by the Lie-Bäcklund

transformation, which, from the point of view of group theory,

can be interpreted from using the Inönü-Wigner contraction.

We analyze the construction of solutions to the Liouville

equation to represent zero curvature using the contraction of

the Lie algebra sl(2) and use nilpotent generators for this.

The 'Grandmother School' community is a place for the elderly to get education and actualize it. Elderly people are one of the most vulnerable groups in society and tend to experience discrimination, stereotypes, and social exclusion due to their aging condition. The presence of this community has an impact on increasing the capacity of elderly members of the community. Opportunities to actualize and re-learn that are accommodated by the community enable them to fight against various social constructions that undermine their potential. The research method used is qualitative research. Data collection is done through observation, interviews, and documentation. After the data is collected, it is presented descriptively and analyzed based on the data analysis method described by Miles, Huberman, and Saldana (2014) to draw conclusions. The purpose of this study was to identify and describe the capacity building of the elderly through the 'Grandmother School' community in Sumberlesung Village, Ledokombo District, Jember Regency.

Can a simulated hospital interprofessional experience between allied health and nursing students change self-efficacy beliefs?
Authors: Brewer Wayne , Lohmann Alicia , Flynn Stacy , Aulbach Rebecca
Published: September 2023

While literature supports the use of interprofessional education (IPE) and the use of simulated patient experiences for individual disciplines, there is limited literature on the use of (IPE) in a simulated patient experience to enhance self-efficacy. The purpose of this study was to determine if participation in a hospital simulation experience could change the students' self-efficacy to engage in interprofessional communication and collaboration. This single-group pre-test, post-test design study utilized student participants from the following health science programs: Occupational Therapy (38), Physical Therapy (37), and Nursing (18). The student participants assumed their designated roles as health-care practitioners collaboratively in a simulated hospital IPE session (SHIPES) while they managed patients admitted to the hospital played by live actors. The student participants completed the Self-Efficacy for Interprofessional Experiential Learning (SEIEL) questionnaire that consists of a total score and two subscales scores (Interprofessional interaction and Interprofessional team evaluation and feedback) before and after this IPE experience. Results: significant (p<0.001) increase in the total and two subscales scores of the SEIEL indicating an increased student self-efficacy to engage in interprofessional learning after participation in the SHIPES. Increased self-efficacy is a positive indicator of future behavior and could facilitate more interprofessional collaboration in clinical settings.
