Técnica Hall: estrategia biológica para el manejo de caries dental. Revisión de la literatura
Authors: Curto-Manrique Jennifer , Gámez-Cabanillas Maggie
Published: February 2019

En la actualidad la caries dental continúa siendo una de las condiciones de mayor impacto en niños de diversas edades. Así mismo, se sabe que el biofilm cumple un rol protagónico en el desarrollo de laenfermedad, originado por el desequilibrio ecológico y la presencia del sustrato desfavorable. Diferentes alternativas terapéuticas con fundamentos cada vez más biológicos, se han desarrollado basadas enla alteración del medio ambiente y el aislamiento de la lesión cariosa. Hoy en día, La técnica Hall es una de esas alternativas consideras para el manejo de lesiones de caries extensas en dientes deciduos.La presente técnica es un método no convencional que se caracteriza por el tratamiento de la lesión de caries sin remoción, ni preparación dentaria; sellándola con una corona de acero preformada. Además, laevidencia científica viene demostrando que es una buena elección para las restauraciones ocluso-proximal y dientes con defectos de esmalte. Las alternativas contemporáneas como la técnica Hall, nos permiteentender la importancia de reestablecer el equilibrio ecológico con un enfoque menos invasivo.
Síndrome del respirador bucal y repercusiones
Authors: Chauca-Saavedra Carmen Luisa
Published: February 2019

El propósito de este estudio es hacer una revisión actualizada de como el síndrome de respiración bucal altera el normal desarrollo bucal e integral del paciente con la finalidad de brindar atención al paciente enforma oportuna y para evitar complicaciones futuras. La respiración bucal introduce aire frio seco y cargado de polvo a la boca y la faringe. Se pierde el calentamiento la humidificación y lafiltración del aire que normalmente tienen lugar en la nariz esto causa irritación de la mucosa bucal y faríngea y la cantidad de oxigeno que pasa a la sangre es insuficiente. .Conclusión: La identificación oportuna del síndrome de respiración bucal, permite interceptar, corregir y minimizar sus repercusiones crónicas de la maloclusión de los maxilares, alteraciones funcionales, estructurales, patológicas, posturales, oclusivas y comportamentales que podría causar el síndrome de respiración bucal; llevando a consecuencias negativas en la calidad de vida de estos individuos debido a su impacto personal, físico, psicológico y social.
Tratamiento ortodóntico interceptivo en paciente con perdida prematura de piezas deciduas
Authors: Jauregui-Ulloa Jaccare Tanit , Quiñe-Angeles Aldo Rafael , Parrales-Valencia Christopher Carlos
Published: February 2019

La pérdida prematura de dientes deciduos produce migración, inclinación de los dientes adyacentes y pérdida de perímetro de arco lo que como consecuencia disminuye el espacio disponible para el permanentesucedáneo. El objetivo de este reporte de caso es presentar el uso del tratamiento ortodóntico interceptivo para la maloclusión clase I en un paciente masculino de 7años y 8 meses de edad. Este tratamientofue propuesto considerando que el paciente presentaba dentición mixta, así como reduce costos, tiempo de tratamiento y requiere el uso de aparatología simple. Se utilizó una placa Hawley modificada contornillo de expansión en la maxila y un arco lingual semi-fijo modificado en la mandíbula lo que permitió recuperar el espacio perdido para la correcta erupción de las piezas permanentes. El manejo temprano derecuperación de espacio es de vital importancia y el de tratamiento ortodóntico interceptivo debe ser la opción a elegir en este tipo de pacientes.
Mesiodens: Reporte y seguimiento de caso
Authors: Matías-Echevarría Angela Elena
Published: February 2019

Fundamento El mesiodens es un diente supernumerario que con mayor frecuencia se evidencia en la clínica y su diagnóstico se dan casualmente cuando se observan diastemas, giroverciones, o ausenciade incisivos permanentes, las radiografías rutinarias complementaran las posibles sospechas, muchas veces estos dientes se encuentran retenidos y en posiciones anómalas que impiden su erupción en boca,ocasionando complicaciones estéticas y funcionales en la dentición permanente. Objetivo Demostrar que el diagnóstico, y tratamiento a tiempo que realicen los odontopediatras es importante para obtener resultados favorables en la dentición permanente. Caso Clínico Paciente de 9 años de sexo masculino, clínicamente se observa en etapa de dentición mixta, diastema en la línea media y mesioversión de la P.D 1.1, se palpa un ligero abultamiento entre los dos incisivos centrales, se recurre a exámenes auxiliares de diagnóstico como radiografía periapical, en el cual se observó la presencia de un diente supernumerario con forma cónica en posición invertida entre los incisivos centrales (mesiodens),el cual obstaculiza la posible alineación de los dientes si se planifica un tratamiento de ortodoncia. El tratamiento realizado fue multidisciplinario con la extracción quirúrgica del supernumerario y tratamiento de ortodoncia con la técnica dos por cuatro maxilar superior e inferior, obteniendo con ello la mejora del frente estético y funcionabilidad oclusal, el cual se evidenció en el seguimiento de caso.

The causes of the English teachers’ problems on professional competence at Vocational High School
Authors: Syamsinar S , Khaeruddin K
Published: February 2019

The objectives of this research aimed at (i) finding out the causes of the problems in teaching English at vocational high schools and (ii) finding out the possible solution toward the problems of the teachers in teaching English subject at vocational high schools. The researcher applied purposive sampling technique in selecting the participants. The participants consisted of two advanced teachers and two beginner teachers at vocational high schools in Somba Opu sub-district. The additional participants were two headmasters that focused on the possible solution dealing with the problem found by the English teachers at VHS. This research under applied descriptive approach and qualitative method. The data were collected by using two instruments namely semi-structured interview and observation checklist. The data were analyzed by using the framework of Miles and Huberman’s (2012) namely data reduction, data display, and drawing then verifying conclusion. The results of this research mentioned nine causes of the problems on the professional competence of English teachers in teaching at vocational high school and the possible solution toward the causes. The outline of the causes of the problems on professional competence are the less effort of the English teachers to improve the linguistic aspects, lack of English for Spesific Purpose knowledge, less of communicative competence, less preparation of teaching contents, less in using ICT as a teaching method and lack in managing the time and managing the class. The possible solution can draw in this research that the English teachers at VHS have to consider the students’ need, prepare the teaching planning and involved in the teaching training. Thus, this research might become a recommendation to the government and the Educational trainer for facilitating the English teachers at VHS with education training of ESP knowledge and supporting the teachers in developing their professional competence.

Construction en terre crue au Néolithique moyen I
Authors: Ghesquière Emmanuel , Giazzon David , Wattez Julia
Published: February 2019

La fouille d’une vaste nécropole néolithique de monuments de type Passy en 2014 à Fleury-sur-Orne (Calvados) a permis la découverte d’un grand tertre fossilisé par un chemin antique. De tels monuments sont reconnus comme les premières manifestations du monumentalisme au milieu du Ve millénaire. Ce tertre de 70 m de longueur présente une architecture particulière, utilisant dans une large part les tapis de gazon dans la construction. Cet article se propose de mettre en évidence la complexité de ce mode de construction.
Terre et peinture à l’époque romaine
Authors: Boislève Julien
Published: February 2019

Intimement liées à l’architecture, les peintures murales d’époque romaine constituent un mobilier archéologique dont l’analyse permet d’observer les modes de construction et de rétablir les élévations des bâtiments. Ces indices sont particulièrement utiles lorsqu’il s’agit de documenter une architecture en terre le plus souvent disparue. À Nîmes, à Arles ou encore à Clermont-Ferrand, la présence d’étages à même pu être prouvée pour des constructions en adobe. Incendié, l’enduit conserve aussi au revers les couches de terre et les empreintes qui révèlent le mode de construction des parois à pans de bois, clayonnages ou lattis. Mais au-delà du mur, la terre entre aussi en jeu dans la composition de l’enduit en lui-même, notamment pour certains plafonds où on préfère une argile fine à un mortier qui garantirait pourtant une prise à fresque. Enfin, la terre est aussi, par la variété des teintes qu’elle peut prendre, un pigment utilisé pour la peinture à fresque. Textes antiques et analyses physico-chimiques révèlent toute la diversité des gisements, leur exploitation et le commerce parfois lointain qui en est fait.
Les enduits de terre crue de deux fosses antiques

Published: February 2019

Une fouille réalisée à Prades (Pyrénées-Orientales) a mis au jour deux fosses antiques (ier siècle de notre ère) de forme quadrangulaire. Elles sont enduites d’un épais revêtement de terre crue. Des analyses physiques, chimiques et minéralogiques ont permis de déterminer la nature et les proportions des éléments présents dans le limon naturel ainsi que dans les enduits de revêtement des fosses. Ces analyses sont complétées par une recherche de phytolithes qui nous renseigne sur la présence de graminées et de taxons ligneux. La fonction initiale de ces creusements pourrait être la conservation de végétaux, peut-être du fourrage.
Les coussouls de la Crau (Bouches-du-Rhône, xviiie-xxe siècles)
Authors: Riani Annick
Published: February 2019

Dès le Moyen Âge, la création de canaux d’irrigation permit de commencer à fertiliser la Crau. Vers la fin du xixe siècle, une Crau humide, riche et humanisée contrastait avec les coussouls, ces vastes steppes arides et désolées de la Crau sèche. Les ingénieurs et hommes d’affaires marseillais pensèrent pouvoir simultanément assainir Marseille – qui manquait de terrains vagues propres à l’établissement de dépotoirs suburbains –, et fertiliser cette Crau sèche en répandant sur ses sols préalablement épierrés un engrais composé des « gadoues » arrivant par trains spéciaux de la ville et de végétaux. Mais ce procédé de fertilisation consommait trop d’eau, s’avérait beaucoup trop lent et, surtout, l’idée d’une complémentarité ville-campagne n’était déjà plus guère en vogue alors que l’économie du recyclage parvenait juste à résister aux tendances nouvelles qui s’esquissaient. Face à l’échec de cette tentative devenue avec le temps polluante et dévastatrice pour l’environnement et dans une perspective écologique entièrement nouvelle, l’on renonça à l’orée du xxie siècle à coloniser le site désormais protégé et considéré comme le conservatoire d’un écosystème unique en Europe occidentale.

Authors: Alzubi Fahad , Timko Mark , Li Yong Jun , Toal Ray , Tovalin Kelly , Es-Said O.S.
Published: February 2019

The high cycle fatigue behavior of an aluminum alloy of small and large grains was investigated. Samples of small and large grains were provided as rotating bending fatigue test specimens. The samples were tested at eight different stress levels from 103 MPa (15 ksi) to 345 MPa (50 ksi) with a 34 MPa (5 ksi) increase at each level. As-received samples were evaluated for optical microstructural analysis. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images were used to evaluate the fractured surface of several samples. High cycle fatigue S-N curves were generated. The fatigue test results showed that grain size has a strong influence on the fatigue life. The high cycle fatigue S-N curves of small grains showed better fatigue life as compared to large grains in the lower stress levels. At higher stresses, the situation was reversed.
Graphene Utilization for Water Desalination Process
Authors: Sabet Maziyar , Soleimani H. , Mohammadian E. , Hosseini S.
Published: February 2019

Though above 70% of the Earth is covered by water, most of the seas and oceans are unusable for drinking. Freshwater lakes, rivers and underground aquifers imply 2.5 percent of the global’s whole freshwater supply. Unfortunately, in addition to being scarce, fresh water is dreadfully unevenly spread. Enhanced demand for freshwater is a global concern. In many countries demanding is further than regular reserves. Sensible use of water, reducing spreading losses and upgraded treatment of recycled water to mitigate the concern, though, water scarcity is still presented consequently desalination of seawater is highly required. Graphene, a single sheet of carbon atoms, possibly will deliver the principal for a novel category of extremely permeable membranes for water purification and desalination. Though, a one atom thickness graphene reveals both brilliant mechanical strength and impermeability to atoms as small as helium. High-density, subnanometer pores within graphene have the potential for ultra-fast water permeance and high solute rejection as the atomic thinness makes slight resistance to stream which deters the transfer of solutes bigger than the pores. The two-dimensional, nanoporous membrane is expected to display orders-of-magnitude permeability and selectivity enhancement over current separation membranes for processes such as brackish water, water softening, or nanofiltration. This study is aimed that the existing desalination methods are not adequate to upgrade water sources unless the desalination technologies are improved significantly. Nanotechnology and utilizing graphene will deliver desalination technology to meet the requirements in the near future. Lately, novel procedures have been technologically progressed by means of nanotechnology and applying graphene for water desalination. This research will emphasize the concept of water desalination for the near futures.

Published: February 2019

The drying process can be defined how unit operation for removing water of one moist solid to an unsaturated gaseous phase due to heat transfer. Numerical simulation emerges like a tool that allows the reproduction of drying experiments using computers and suitable softwares. In this sense, this works aims to predict drying process of an industrial hollow ceramic brick inside the kiln using computational fluid dynamics analysis. For one drying temperature of 60°C, results of the drying and heating kinetics, and moisture content, velocity and temperature distributions are shown and analyzed. A comparison between predicted and experimental data of the moisture content and temperature of the brick along the process was done and a good agreement was obtained.

Published: February 2019

The intimation of “employee turnover” is a substantial metric which is bound with human resource management in organizations. Therefore interest occurred to examine the relationship between organizational factors and employee turnover in apparel industry in Sri Lanka with boosting turnover among apparel employees. The questionnaire was administrated to gather data from conveniently selected sample of 50 operational level employees (already left out from their job) in two apparel companies in Galle District. Four organizational factors such as compensation practices, supervisory support, health & safety practices, and working environment were examined. The data analysis included the univariate, bivariate and multivariate analysis. Univariate analysis presented basic nature of research variables, Bivariate analysis used to identify the significant relationship between dependent variable with each independent variables and Multivariate analysis used to examine the overall fitness of the model. Bivariate and multivariate analysis used to test four hypotheses developed for the study. Results revealed that organizational factors negatively influence towards employee turnover. . Impact of demographics on employee turnover of the respondents was analyzed using T-test analysis and One Way Anova. Therefore researcher concluded demographic factors were not significantly influence to employee turnover.
Environmental effects on women-LED SMEs in Asia: from institutional perspective
Authors: Dissanayake Kumudinei
Published: February 2019

Small and Medium-scale Enterprises (SMEs) led by women play a pivotal role in the developing economies. Nonetheless, extant research evince that Asian women-led SMEs and/or women entrepreneurs are still not performing up to their full potential. A range of factors, including institutional environmental forces, play a key role in impeding or expediting the success of women-led SMEs all over the globe. However, Asia shows a unique case due to its inherent socio-cultural, politico-legal and economic conditions those directly affecting the women, their career, and the business environment which are different to the other parts of the globe. Consequently, the macro environmental circumstances those affecting women-led SMEs in the Asian region deserve special scholarly attention. Despite the attempts to unveil institutional influences on SMEs in general, there is a dearth of studies those specifically examined the effects of institutional environment on women-led SMEs. Drawing from the institutional theory, and referring to the existing literature, this study examines the regulatory, cognitive, and normative effects of institutional environment on womenled SMEs. This is a conceptual paper which abstracts a coherent picture of three-fold institutional dimensions activated in the Asia and their effects on women‘s business. The implications are drawn for policy makers and future researchers.
Application of semiotics in organizational communication
Authors: Rasakumaran A.
Published: February 2019

This article presents the brand management process based on the Peircean principles of Semiotics, for sign analysis. Based on the application of semiotics for brand management, it is argued that consumers are able to receive a brand that allows the appropriation of information that leads them to build knowledge and, therefore, make purchasing decisions. Bibliographical survey and theoretical discussion were employed as the research method. Results reveal that the application of semiotics theory reduces the differences between the brand identity communicated by the organization and the brand image perceived by customers or consumers. As this study is theoretical, neither direct description of empirical object nor an experimental process being offered may be a limitation.

Coopération médico-vétérinaire et réduction de l’incidence de la toxoplasmose en France
Authors: Coste-Villena Isabelle , Blaga Radu
Published: February 2019

La toxoplasmose est une zoonose de répartition mondiale, due au protozoaire Toxoplasma gondii

capable d’infecter tous les animaux à sang chaud. L’infection est généralement inapparente ou bénigne chez l’homme sauf en cas d’immunodépression ou lors de transmission materno-fœtale (à l’origine de la toxoplasmose congénitale). Chez les animaux de rente, elle peut être source d’avortements à l’origine de pertes économiques. La contamination se fait le plus souvent par ingestion de kystes (présents dans les viandes) ou d’oocystes souillant les végétaux ou l’eau. Seule la part liée à la contamination des viandes est évoquée dans cet article. Grâce à une coopération entre vétérinaires et médecins du Laboratoire National de Référence Parasites transmis par les aliments (Anses, Maisons-Alfort) et du Centre National de Référence de la Toxoplasmose, Reims (France), des plans de surveillance ont été menés visant à estimer le niveau de contamination des viandes pour mieux comprendre l’épidémiologie humaine.
Emergency Medicine Standardized Letter of Evaluation (SLOE): Findings From the New Electronic SLOE Format
Authors: Jackson Jennifer S. , Bond Michael , Love Jeffrey N. , Hegarty Cullen
Published: February 2019

Background 

Emergency medicine (EM) uses a standardized template for residency application letters of recommendations. In 1997, the Standardized Letter of Recommendation was developed with categories for applicant comparison. Now named the Standardized Letter of Evaluation (SLOE), it is a universal requirement in the EM residency application process. In 2016, a website called “eSLOE” was launched for credentialed academic EM faculty to enter applicant data, which generates a SLOE.

Objective 

This article outlines website creation for the eSLOE and its successful national implementation in the 2016–2017 EM residency application cycle. We analyzed current trends in applicant assessments from the eSLOE data and compared them to prior data.

Methods 

Data from 2016–2017 were sorted and analyzed for each question on the eSLOE. An analysis of Global Assessment and Qualifications for EM rankings, clerkship grade, and comparison with prior SLOE data was performed.

Results 

Analysis of 6715 eSLOEs for 3138 unique applicants revealed the following Global Assessment rankings: top 10%, top one-third, middle one-third, and lower one-third. There was less spread with the distribution for clerkship grade and Qualifications for EM. The 2011–2012 standard letter of recommendation global assessment data, with top 10%, top one-third, middle one-third, and lower one-third, also revealed top-clustered results with less spread compared with the ranking usage in 2016–2017.

Conclusions 

Results indicate an improved spread of all rank categories for Global Assessment, enhancing the eSLOE's applicant discrimination. There has been an overall improvement in rank designation when compared with previously published data.
Naturalism’s maxims and its methods. Is naturalistic philosophy like science?
Authors: Robinson Carin
Published: February 2019

This paper argues that naturalistic philosophy does not meet its own empiricist mandate. It argues from an empiricist perspective. Naturalists either claim that philosophy is like science in significant ways, or they claim that philosophy ought to be like science. This paper, being chiefly focused on the former claim, argues that naturalistic philosophy is nothing like science. Using Papineau’s markers for the similarities between naturalistic philosophy and science, I argue, counter Papineau, that the method employed in naturalistic philosophy is not a posteriori and its claims are certainly not synthetic in the same way as that of science. This methodological distinction between science and philosophy is one made by Carnap. To show how the methods are distinct I compare two papers; I compare the method employed by Andy Clark in his philosophical paper on the brain as a prediction error minimisation machine with that employed by Rees and Haynes in their neuroscientific paper on mental content.
Paris and the Awakening of Wagner's Nationalism
Authors: Mojsilovic Jelisaveta
Published: February 2019

At the beginning of his career, Richard Wagner (1813–1883), was considered a universal composer—a true cosmopolitan. However, indigence, the “bad” tastes of the Parisian audiences, and poor relationships with the managers of French musical institutions had a huge impact on Wagner’s perception of foreign music. Furthermore, the representatives of Parisian music life were indifferent to foreign composers, particularly those of German nationality, and were wary of themes related to German culture. This paper explores Wagner’s first stay in Paris, from 1839 to 1842, through analysis of his writings during that time. A comparison of Wagner’s texts written before his time in Paris and those written after his return to Saxony reveals an emotional intensification towards the German tradition, foreshadowing its zenith in his mature writings and his unconditional turn towards the German tradition.

Authors: Yamazawa Shuichi , Moriya Kanae
Published: February 2019

This research evaluates the Tokuyama dam resettlement in Japan through the short-term from a gender perspective using the IRR and PAR models. Moreover, this research also evaluates the resettlement and clarifies the changes in women’s jobs in the long-term. As for short-term evaluation, the risks that women faced during the negotiation period and after resettlement are categorized into three issues: landlessness, joblessness, and loss of access to common property assets. Women have tried to solve these issues with agency, although they are usually recognized as passive victims in the context of forced displacement. In addition, the attitudes of “dam brides”—those who married men originally from Tokuyama in the period immediately prior to the dam construction and subsequent resettlement—were different from women originally from Tokuyama village. As for the long-term evaluation, changes of women’s productive activities are mainly categorized into three patterns: part-time jobs, sewing jobs as side work, and farming.
LA RUGOSCOPIA PALATINA FORENSE COMO METODO DE IDENTIFICACION HUMANA A TRAVES DEL ANALISIS COMPARATIVO
Authors: Ramos Matute Gustavo Antonio
Published: February 2019

Introducción. La Identificación es el método o sistema empleado para fijar de la manera más segura la identidad de una persona en la vida jurídica, tanto civil como penal y evitar confundirla con otra. La Rugoscopia es una técnica de identificación odontoestomatológica que se preocupa por estudiar, clasificar y registrar las rugosidades palatinas. Objetivo. Proporcionar elementos de juicio para la identificación de personas vivas o muertas a través de estructuras anatómicas específicas dentro de la cavidad oral. Pacientes y Metódos. Para la recolección de datos se realizó la toma de impresión del maxilar, en veinte pacientes atendidos en la clínica de la Carrera de Odontología de la Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Honduras en el Valle de Sula (UNAH-VS), luego se procedió a la Calcorugoscopia. El duplicado obtenido se dividió por la línea media y se registraron las formas y números de formas palatinas de cada lado. El paso siguiente fue el llenado de ficha de cada uno de los modelos pertenecientes a los individuos. Resultados. De los 20 pacientes estudiados la forma más común encontrada en el paladar derecho es las curva (24 rugas), en el paladar izquierdo fue la recta (27 rugas). Conclusiones. Las Rugas Palatinas son diferentes de un individuo a otro, en una misma persona ambas mitades del paladar son diferentes. La Calcorusgoscopia es un método de identificación que no permite la presunción.

The Impact of Domain-Specific Experience on Chess Skill: Reanalysis of a Key Study
Authors: Burgoyne Alexander P. , Nye Christopher D. , Macnamara Brooke N. , Charness Neil , Hambrick David Z.
Published: February 2019

How important are training and other forms of domain-relevant experience in predicting individual differences in expertise? To answer this question, we used structural equation modeling to reanalyze data from a study of chess by Charness, Tuffiash, Krampe, Reingold, and Vasyukova (2005). Latent variables reflecting serious chess activity and formal instruction, along with a manifest variable indexing serious starting age, accounted for 63% of the variance in peak rating. Serious starting age had a significant negative effect on peak rating (β = –.15), even after we controlled for domain-specific experience, indicating an advantage for starting earlier. We also tested the prediction that formal instruction increases the effectiveness of serious study (Ericsson & Charness, 1994) using moderated regression. This claim was not supported. Overall, the results affirm that serious study and other forms of domain-specific experience are important pieces of the expertise puzzle, but other factors must matter too.

Environmental Context and False Recognition: Evidence from the Remember/Know Procedure
Authors: Jang Yoonhee , Kuper Kevin E.
Published: February 2019

We investigated the effect of environmental context on false recognition by using the remember/know procedure. Participants studied word lists, each of which was composed of associates of an unstudied word (critical lure) in one room. Then, they were randomly assigned to one of two conditions. One group moved into a new room (different environmental context) to take a recognition memory test, and the other group took the test in the same room (same environmental context). During the test, participants were asked to provide remember/know judgments about recognized items. A false recognition effect was observed such that the false alarm rate for critical lures was greater compared with distractors and was as high as the hit rate, resulting in no difference in overall discriminability between targets and critical lures. An effect of context-dependent recognition was found as both hit and false alarm rates increased in the same environmental context relative to the different environmental context, without a difference in overall discrimination between the context conditions. Nonetheless, participants used remember responses more often when discriminating targets (rather than critical lures) from distractors, whereas they used familiarity-based responses more often when discriminating critical lures (rather than targets) from distractors in the same environmental context. These results suggest that reinstating environment context plays an important role in false recognition increasing the sense of familiarity.
The Californization of Olympian Love: Olga Fikotová and Harold Connolly’s Cold War Romance
Authors: Dyreson Mark
Published: February 2019

At the height of the Cold War, as nuclear Armageddon between the Western bloc and the Eastern bloc loomed, a ray of hope appeared at the 1956 Olympics. An American gold medalist named Harold Connolly and a Czech gold medalist named Olga Fikotová fell in love. After a whirlwind courtship in front of the world press corps, they married and migrated to the United States, becoming global celebrities. They eventually settled near the golden beaches of California. The narratives about their romance constructed by the media and by the Connollys themselves proclaimed that California dreams could win the Cold War without resort to weapons of mass destruction by employing the engines of mass consumption. From the 1950s through the end of the Cold War in the 1990s, that idea remained endlessly fascinating to the American public and to the advocates of soft-power strategies in Olympic arenas.
A comparison of teaching methods that provide patient orientation to inpatient unit procedures
Authors: Adler Kimberly , McKeever Crystal , Dyer Aubry , Donaldson Marylee , Ward-Smith Peggy
Published: February 2019

The descriptive longitudinal feasibility study compared two teaching methods focused on inpatient unit orientation. Once admitted, 20 patients were randomly assigned to one of two methods (written or video) that provided unit orientation information. Survey data, which assessed retention of the information and satisfaction with the instructional method, were collected 24 hours later. Descriptive analyses of these data determined that patients who received unit orientation information by video achieved a slightly higher knowledge score, but a slightly lower satisfaction with instruction score. These data demonstrate that the teaching modality has an effect on patient knowledge retention and satisfaction with care. Correlating the descriptive patient demographic and admitting diagnosis data to the study variables revealed that when the admitting diagnosis was alcohol-related there was a negative influence on knowledge retention, which was a surprising result. Coordinating the mode of instruction to patient data, and/or allowing the patient to choose their instructional method may enhance the inpatient experience.
How do Academic Faculty Members Perceive the Effect of Teaching Surveys Completed by Students on Appointment and Promotion Processes at Academic Institutions? A Case Study
Authors: Eckhaus Eyal , Davidovitch Nitza
Published: February 2019

It is commonly thought that the promotion of faculty members is affected by their research performance. The current study is unique in examining how academic faculty members perceive the harm or damage to academic appointment and promotion processes, as a direct effect of student evaluations as manifested in teaching surveys. One hundred eighty two questionnaires were collected from senior faculty members at academic institutions. Most respondents were from three institutions: Ariel University, Ben Gurion University, and the Jezreel Valley College. Qualitative and statistical research tools were utilized, with the goal of forming a model reflecting the effect of the harm to academic appointment and promotion processes, as perceived by faculty members. The research findings show that the lecturers find an association that causes harm to their promotion processes as a result of student evaluations. Assuming that students' voices and their opinion of teaching are important – the question is how should these evaluations be treated within promotion and appointment processes: what and whom do they indicate? Do they constitute a reliable managerial tool with which it is possible to work as a foundation for promotion and appointment processes – or should other tools be developed, unrelated to students' opinions?
Graded Response Method: Does Question Type Influence the Assessment of Critical Thinking?
Authors: Fukuzawa Sherry , DeBraga Michael
Published: February 2019

Graded Response Method (GRM) is an alternative to multiple-choice testing where students rank options accordingto their relevance to the question. GRM requires discrimination and inference between statements and is acost-effective critical thinking assessment in large courses where open-ended answers are not feasible. This studyexamined critical thinking assessment in GRM versus open-ended and multiple-choice questions composed fromBloom’s taxonomy in an introductory undergraduate course in anthropology and archaeology (N=53students).Critical thinking was operationalized as the ability to assess a question with evidence to support or evaluatearguments (Ennis, 1993). We predicted that students who performed well on multiple-choice from Bloom’staxonomy levels 4-6 and open-ended questions would perform well on GRM involving similar concepts. Highperforming students on GRM were predicted to have higher course grades. The null hypothesis was question typewould not have an effect on critical thinking assessment. In two quizzes, there was weak correlation between GRMand open-ended questions (R2=0.15), however there was strong correlation in the exam (R2=0.56). Correlations wereconsistently higher between GRM and multiple-choice from Bloom’s taxonomy levels 4-6 (R2=0.23,0.31,0.21)versus levels 1-3 (R2=0.13,0.29,0.18). GRM is a viable alternative to multiple-choice in critical thinking assessmentwithout added resources and grading efforts.
