EMPOWERING WOMEN PARTICIPATION IN THE TOURISM INDUSTRY IN CITY OF IMUS: A PHENOMENOLOGICAL STUDY
Authors: REMULLA SHAILA GRAESHELLE , LARA SOFIA LOURAINE
Published: August 2023

Women remain underrepresented in the high-status and managerial levels of the tourism industry. Despite the large number of women employed in tourism, they generally hold low-skilled positions related to traditional work such as assistance, services, and accommodation. Related studies and prior research revealed that women’s employment opportunities were influenced by gender discrimination, stereotyping, women qualities, and experiences. This qualitative research study used purposive sampling in determining the size and selecting participants. Narrative analysis was used to interpret the data to codes and themes. Construct validity was reflected through truthful interviews and interrelated questions. This study revealed the continued underrepresentation of women in high-status and managerial levels of the selected tourism industry limited to restaurants, hotels, travel agencies, and the local tourism and development office of Imus and recognized the participation of some women who hold high-status and managerial roles in the selected tourism industry. Gender discrimination and stereotyping were still evident in employment opportunities and task dissemination. Further studies on expanding the size and participants across all tourism industries were suggested. Implementation of rules and policies on gender discrimination and discussion within management on gender stereotyping were advised to create equal employment opportunities for both genders and assess the validity of employability based on their qualifications, job experience, and educational background.

Determinants of small for gestational age among HIV exposed infants delivered at the Women and Newborn hospital, Lusaka, Zambia
Authors: Ndui Augustus , Kasonka L , Vwalika B
Published: August 2023

Objectives:  To explore the factors that influence small for gestational age outcome among HIV exposed infants delivered at the Women and Newborn Hospital, Lusaka, Zambia.

Materials and Methods: This was a facility-based unmatched case control study nested in the Zambia Preterm Birth Prevention Study (ZAPPS) conducted at the Women and Newborn Hospital in Lusaka district between October 2017 and February 2021. Convenience sampling was used to select all the 53 HIV exposed small for gestational age infants (as cases) and 152 HIV unexposed small for gestational age infants (as controls). An excel data extraction tool was used to extract categorised variables from the ZAPPS data set into Stata version 19. Chi-square test was used to test for association, foetal and maternal variables with a p-value of 0.2 at univariate analyses were entered into a multiple logistic regression model.

Results: The proportion of SGA, though not statistically significant, was found to be 19.9% among the HIV exposed infants compared to 17.3% in the unexposed group (p= 0.34). More than three quarters of participants in both the HIV positive arm (71.7%) and HIV negative arm (81.3%) were aged between 20-35 years. On multivariate analysis, Maternal chronic illness [AOR: 4.39, 95% CI: (1.66 - 11.6), p=0.003] and spontaneous preterm delivery [AOR: 1.58, 95% CI: (1.02 - 2.46), p=0.040] had a strong association with small for gestational age. Tertiary Level of education [AOR: 0.45, (0.24 - 0.85), p=0.014] was found to be significantly protective against small for gestational age. Maternal factors such as married status [AOR: 0.74, (0.48 - 1.13), p=0.164], secondary level of education [AOR: 0.82, (0.54 - 1.24), p=0.743], history of stillbirth [AOR: 1.31, (0.92-1.85), p=0.123] and the Mid-upper arm circumference [AOR: 0.96, (0.92-1.00), p=0.064] was not associated with small for gestational age.  

Conclusion: There was no association between maternal HIV infection and SGA. Maternal chronic illness and spontaneous preterm birth increase the odds of SGA outcome while tertiary level of education is protective. Further research is needed to broaden the evidence base for addressing small for gestational age as a gateway to improve perinatal mortality, and for policy implementers to devise cost-effective and sustainable ways of reaching the at-risk population.

Elements of Intertextuality in “Was This Face That Launched a Thousand Ships” By Christopher Marlowe
Authors: Arsh Megha
Published: August 2023

Intertextuality is the connection between various texts, explicitly abstract ones. It is the way that texts allude to and impact different texts. Julia Kristeva initially utilized the term in her 1966 work Word, Dialog and Novel. Intertextuality (articulated in-terr-text-yoo-a-lih-tee) is certainly not an abstract or expository gadget, but instead a reality about scholarly texts – the way that they are on the whole personally interconnected. This applies to all texts: books, works of reasoning, paper articles, films, melodies, artistic creations, and so forth to get Intertextuality, it's urgent to comprehend this wide meaning of "text." Every text is influenced by every one of the texts that preceded it, since those texts impacted the creator's reasoning and stylish decisions, so in this way Intertextuality is Renaissance. Marlowe, at first raised the topic of his plays to a more significant level by giving gallant subjects that promptly spoke to the creative mind of the crowd. For example, we find in Marlowe's plays that Tamburlaine is incredible victor, that Faustus is an extraordinary searcher of information and influence, that Barabbas has the most grounded desire for limitless abundance and that Edward II has incredible honourability blended with uselessness and was the face that dispatched thousand boats depends on the set of experiences.

Thus, Intertextuality is a powerful literary technique that enables writers to establish connections and references to other works, enhancing the depth and meaning of their own creations. This research article aims to explore the intertextual elements present in Christopher Marlowe's poem, "Was This the Face that Launched a Thousand Ships." Through a comprehensive analysis, we delve into the various references to Greek mythology, Shakespearean works, and historical events, shedding light on the intertextual nature of Marlowe's poem. By examining the significance of these intertextual references, we gain a deeper understanding of the poem's themes, character development, and overall literary merit.

Published: August 2023

Atualmente é crescente a procura pela implementação de sistemas alternativos de geração de energia nos estabelecimentos brasileiros, o aumento do preço da energia gerada pelas concessionárias, aliado a simplicidade da viabilidade econômico-financeira, torna essa busca uma real inevitabilidade. Além desses fatores, o cuidado com o meio ambiente também influi no aumento de usuários com própria geração de energias elétrica. Dentro dessa perspectiva, uma energia limpa, inesgotável e que hoje é acessível, é a solar fotovoltaica. Neste trabalho avaliou-se a implantação de um sistema solar fotovoltaico residencial conectado à rede de distribuição a ser instalado em Muriú, litoral do Rio Grande do Norte. Para garantir a exequibilidade do projeto, analisou-se vários fatores necessários para efetividade do sistema, dentre eles: o consumo anual de energia, os dados solarimétricos da região, o custo com equipamentos, o retorno do investimento, entre outros. Analisados os dados, é discorrido sobre os padrões normativos e as exigências necessárias solicitadas pelos órgãos responsáveis para homologação e funcionamento do sistema.
Etiopathogenesis of depression and experimental depression models used in preclinical studies
Authors: Kandemir Ümmühan
Published: August 2023

Depression is the most frequent psychiatric illness among mood disorders, affecting approximately 10% of adults. Especially recurrent and moderate/severe depression can become a serious public health problem by impairing people’s life quality. The monoamine hypothesis is the most widely accepted hypothesis for clarifying the pathophysiology of depression. Depression’s pathogenesis and etiology, however, are still poorly understood. Tricyclic antidepressants, monoamine oxidase inhibitors, selective serotonin or noradrenaline reuptake inhibitors, different atypical antidepressants, and electroconvulsive therapy are currently available therapies for depression. Although these treatment options are effective, a large number of patients do not respond to treatment or do not attain long-term remission. Furthermore, present antidepressants used in clinics have disadvantages such as delayed onset of effects, side effects, and patient compliance problems. Therefore, the discovery of new antidepressant medications is crucial. Animal models are critical in investigating the etiology of depression and developing novel treatments. Hence, in this review, the main mechanisms involved in the etiopathogenesis of depression and the experimental depression models used in preclinical studies have been demonstrated.

Undervisning om migration på vetenskaplig grund
Authors: Kristiansson Martin , Randahl Ann-Christine
Published: August 2023

I artikeln undersöks två samtal i en studiecirkel om migration. Samtalen ingår i den första fasen av ett ämnesdidaktiskt projekt mellan lärare i samhällsorienterande ämnen på mellanstadiet och forskare på ett svenskt lärosäte. I samtalen, som modereras av två forskare, förväntas lärarna bygga egen kunskap om migration och hur undervisning om migration kan genomföras. Tidigare forskning om undervisning i samhällsorienterande ämnen har visat att kopplingen till innehållslig vetenskaplig kunskap är svag i skolans yngre årskurser. Studiecirkeln har som mål att stärka denna koppling. Genom teoretisk fördjupning och ökad didaktisk repertoar förväntas lärare ge elever tillgång till specialiserad kunskap, som är central för att hantera samhällets stora frågor. 
Artikeln syftar till att undersöka hur lärarnas kunskapsbyggande kan synliggöras och förstås samt vilken funktion forskarna fyller i samtalen. De båda samtalen har analyserats semantiskt med verktyg från Legitimation Code Theory. Genom analysen följer vi hur vetenskaplig innehållslig kunskap om migration transformeras och knyts samman med lärarnas erfarenheter och en generell vardagsförståelse av fenomenet. Analysen visar att det sker en koppling mellan en vardaglig förståelse och en vetenskaplig förståelse i den del av samtalet där lärarna bygger egen kunskap om migration men att det är svårare att åstadkomma en koppling mellan en vetenskaplig kunskap och utveckling av innehållet i undervisning. Här tycks ett fokus på innehållet, om vad som ska undervisas och varför, underlätta för lärarna att göra kopplingar till specialiserad kunskap medan ett fokus på hur-frågor och vem som ska undervisas inte gör det i samma utsträckning.

The electricity supply in Nigeria is usually associated with voltage fluctuation that causes damage to connected loads. In this study, implementation of a 220V AC overload and high voltage monitor alert system with auto shutdown was carried out using an ATMega328p microcontroller. The circuit was simulated in Proteus Ver8.12 using Arduino software with C++ programing language. A prototype was constructed on a Vero board and tested for continuity and power ON. Performance analysis with 50 trials (25- high voltage, 25- overload) was used to calculate sensitivity and accuracy. Result shows good circuit continuity with no short circuits or bugs along the paths. Also, no component undergo heating in the circuit. Performance analysis test indicated sensitivity of 96% and 92% for high voltage and overload monitoring respectively. This implies that the device will correctly monitor 96% high voltage and 92% overloading conditions, but it will fail to monitor 4% high voltage and 8% overloading conditions. Accuracy of 94% implies that, the design conforms to the correct value specifications of the simulated circuit and that high voltage and overload monitoring using the constructed device can be compared to that of an ideal device and we are 94% sure. Even though the device shows more sensitivity to high voltage than it is to overloading, the sensitivity level is very good for a practical device, as such, it can be used for protection of our devices on the utility supply in homes and industries for smooth and steady electricity supply.

Judiciary is one of the three arms of government in Nigeria vested with the responsibility of interpreting and applying the law without fear or favour. The Nigerian judiciary system being a critical linchpin in combating corruption keeps Nigerians with bated breath during the incidents of awaiting the verdict of the courts. This paper examines the vicissitudes of corruption in Nigerian judiciary system during economic comatose and its implications. The paper explored Nigeria judiciary focused corruption literature and scholarly works to dissect the vicissitudes of judiciary corruption on economic development of Nigeria. The findings revealed that the prevalence of corruption is caused by manipulation of adjudication process by influential members of the society, insufficient salary and welfare package, politicization of appointment of judiciary personnel, inadequate ICT facilities, complex procedural rules and weak monitoring system. The study further revealed that the economic implications of judicial corruption are poverty, indebtedness, poor productivity, inability to control crime and threats to national security. From the findings of the study, the researchers recommended that judiciary system should be given autonomy to manage its funds for payment of salaries and provision of adequate information management system. The researchers further stressed the need for constitution of special committee comprising of government arms and bar association for the appointment and promotion of judiciary personnel as well as severe penalty for compromised judiciary personnel

Political Economy of Informal Oil-Economy in Niger Delta Region of Nigeria: The Case of Artisanal Refineries
Authors: Samuel Ogbuku , Agbai Edward Perekebina
Published: August 2023

Militancy in the oil-rich Niger Delta has hindered Nigeria's socio-economic development and political stability and created conditions for the emergence of an informal oil economy which altered the existing social order in the area. This has increased instability, environmental devastation and disrupted social hierarchy in the area. The study objective was to establish the nexus between informal oil economy and the growth of artisanal refinery and provide evidence of social class formation. The political economy approach was utilized to explain capitalist relations, resource extraction and class conflict in the area. It identified the background of the informal oil economy and its metamorphosis from agitation for socio-economic justice to political economy construct. The study used the historical/descriptive research method with a sample population of 450 individuals drawn from the study population comprising the three states in the Niger Delta. The study relied on primary and secondary data derived from questionnaires and text documents which were analyzed using qualitative and quantitative data analysis methods. The study revealed the relationship between artisanal oil refining driven by the wealth accumulated through informal oil economy activities. The study concluded that there is a nexus between the artisanal oil refining and environmental devastation in Niger Delta. It also identified artisanal oil refining and crude oil theft as the main driving forces of this economy. The study recommended the need to engage oil-bearing communities directly in the formal oil economy and design a bottom-top development blueprint for the area.
An Analysis of Paul Feyerabend’s Incommensurability Theory
Authors: Anetoh Bonaventure Chike
Published: August 2023

This article focuses on an analysis of Paul Feyerabend’s incommensurability theory. Paul Feyerabend and Thomas Kuhn are the proponents of incommensurability theory in contemporary philosophy of science, though their views on incommensurability thesis are not exactly the same. Incommensurability theory is one of the major contributions of Paul Feyerabend in philosophy of science. The fundamental questions are: What actually does Feyerabend mean by incommensurability of fundamental scientific theories? Do the meanings of scientific concepts change when scientific theories change? Do scientific theories affect the meanings of scientific concepts? How does Feyerabend’s incommensurability theory differ from that of Thomas Kuhn? Has Feyerabend’s incommensurability theory any implication for scientific development? What are the strengths and weaknesses of Feyerabend’s incommensurability theory? These and other related issues are the central focus of this article. Employing basically analytical method, this article examines Feyerabend’s incommensurability theory. This study discovers that Feyerabend’s incommensurability theory has both relationship of similarity and dissimilarity with that of Kuhn, and at the same time has implications for scientific development. It also argues that Feyerabend’s idea leads to relativism and subjectivism. The researcher concludes that though Feyerabend’s incommensurability theory has some shortcomings, Feyerabend is a force to reckon with in contemporary philosophy of science as a result of his innovations and revolutionary ideas in the discipline.
