Adnan Menderes (Ertekin)’İn Teftiş Raporuna Göre İçel Parti Teşkilatı
Authors: TEKE Cevdet
Published: October 2023

Erken Cumhuriyet Dönemi’nin ilk siyasi partisi Cumhuriyet Halk Partisi (CHP)’dir Kısa süren Terakkiperver Cumhuriyet Fırkası ve Serbest Cumhuriyet Fırkası deneyimleri haricinde CHP, 1923-1945 yılları arasında tek parti sistemiyle tartışmasız olarak kontrolü elinde tuttu ve partiyle devlet özdeşleşti. Cumhuriyet ideali ve ulus devlet anlayışı doğrultusunda siyasal, sosyal ve kültürel icraatlar yapma gayretinde oldu. Ülke genelinde teşkilatlanmaya giden parti, taşra teşkilatlarının çalışmalarını kontrol etmek, onları sürekli aktif tutmak ve partinin merkeziyetçi yapısını kuvvetlendirmek amacıyla parti müfettişleri aracılığıyla teftiş uygulamalarına gitti.

Parti müfettişlerinin yazdıkları raporlar ışığında ilgili bölgenin siyasi, sosyal, ekonomik ve kültürel yanları analiz edilebilmektedir. Bu bağlamda teftiş raporları ışığında dönemin tek partili Türkiye’si üzerinden taşra vilayetlerinin işleyişi hakkında fikir sahibi olunabilmektedir. Bu çalışmada, Dönemin Aydın Mebusu Adnan Menderes (Ertekin)’in 1936 yılında İçel’de yaptığı teftişler doğrultusunda hazırladığı rapor ele alınarak bölgenin parti teşkilatı yapılanmaları ve çalışmaları irdelenmiştir.
Cumhuriyetten Günümüze Samsun'da Tütüncülük ve Kadın İşçiliği
Authors: EVSEL Gülsevim
Published: October 2023

Bu makalenin amacı Cumhuriyet’ten günümüze kadar Samsun şehrinde toplumsal ve ekonomik ortamı, tütüncülüğün ve bu dönemde faaliyet gösteren tütün fabrikalarının toplum üzerinde yarattığı etkileri, geçirdiği dönüşümler ve karşılaştığı sorunları ortaya koymaktır. Bu çalışma, Samsun’da tütüncülük deneyimleri ile ilgili öznel bazı bilgilere ve deneyimlere yer verdiği için ilgili literatüre katkısı bakımından önemlidir. Çalışmanın yöntemini sözlü tarih tekniğine dayalı yapılan iki görüşme ve sosyal medya ile ilgili literatürden edinilen bilgilerin derleme olarak sunulması oluşturmaktadır. Çalışmanın sonuçlarına göre, tütüncülük ve sigara fabrikaları ilgili dönem içerisinde Samsun’un ekonomik ve toplumsal hayatına çok önemli katkılarda bulunmuştur. Öyle ki, Samsun geçimini tütün üzerinden ve dolayısıyla çoğunlukla kadın emeği üzerinden sağlamıştır, denilebilir. Zaman içinde uygulanan farklı politika ve uygulamalar, köylüyü ve kadın emeğini de tütüncülükten uzaklaştırmıştır. Ülkenin Cumhuriyet’in ilanını izleyen yıllarda yerli üretimi ve köylüyü destekleyen politikalarının hem bölgesel hem de ulusal kalkınma üzerindeki olumlu etkisi reddedilemez. Bu çalışma, Samsun’da tütüncülüğün ve tütün fabrikalarının içinden geçtiği zorluklar ve darboğazlara da yer vererek yapılacak yeni politikalar, toplumsal analizler ve bölgesel kalkınma haritaları için yol gösterici olacaktır.

Authors: SARIKOYUNCU DEĞERLİ Esra , KARAKUZU Hasan
Published: October 2023

Türk siyasi hayatında çok önemli bir yere sahip olan Adnan Menderes, 1950-1960 yılları arasında iktidarda olan Demokrat Parti ile anılmış ve hatta bu dönem tarihçiler ve siyaset bilimciler tarafından çoğunlukla “Menderes Dönemi” olarak adlandırılmıştır. Her ne kadar bu dönemle ilgili sayısız araştırma yapılmışsa da Menderes’in Cumhuriyet Halk Partisi milletvekilliği dönemindeki çalışmaları hakkında yapılan çalışmalar yok denecek kadar azdır. Bu eksikliğin bir nebze olsun giderilmesini amaçlayan ve konu ile ilgili arşivler, zabıt cerideleri ve süreli yayınlardan yararlanılarak hazırlanan çalışmada; Adnan Menderes’in Kütahya parti müfettişliği, milletvekili olarak yaptığı faaliyetler ve Başvekil olduktan sonra kente yaptığı ziyaretler konu edinilmiştir. CHP Parti müfettişliği sırasında Menderes’in, Kütahya CHP parti teşkilatı ve halkevini teftiş etmesi sonucunda elde ettiği bilgileri raporuna yansıtarak eksikliklerin giderilmesi konusunda getirdiği önerilerden bahsedilmiştir. Kütahya Milletvekili olarak Meclis’te yaptığı konuşmalardan, kanun tekliflerinden, sözlü ve yazılı soru önergeleri üzerinde durularak hem ülkeye hem de şehre olan katkılarından söz edilmiştir. Ayrıca Menderes’in Başbakan olmasından sonra başlatılan ekonomik ve sınai kalkınma hamlesi doğrultusunda; Şeker Fabrikası’nın hem temel atma törenine hem de açılış törenine katılması, İş Bankası’nın 120. Şubesi’nin açılış törenine katılması, Azot Fabrikası’nın temel atma törenine katılması esnasında yaptığı konuşmalar ve Türk milletine verdiği mesajlar üzerinde durulmuştur.
Erzincan’ın Şehirsel Toponimisi ve Şehir Kimliği Üzerindeki Etkisi
Authors: ORHAN Fatih , DÖNMEZ Halil İbrahim
Published: October 2023

Adlandırma, insanoğlunun bir kişiyi, nesneyi ya da yeri bir başkasından ayırt etmek için kullandığı bir araçtır. Bununla birlikte özellikle yer adları, bunun çok daha ötesinde bir anlam ifade etmektedir. İnsanoğlu bir yeri adlandırırken, kullandığı ismin o mekânı, kültürü hatta kendisini yansıtmasını ister. Bu yönüyle yer adları, toplumun bir aynası olarak kabul görmektedir. Mahalle, cadde, sokak, meydan, bulvar gibi şehirsel mekânların adlandırılması da benzer özellikler taşımakla birlikte, bunlarda kullanılan isimlerin anma, hatırlama ve ulus kimlik oluşturma işlevleri de bulunmaktadır. Bir başka ifadeyle, bu adlara şehir kimliğinin oluşumu ve yansıtılması bakımından önemli görevler yüklenmiştir. Bu çalışma da Erzincan şehrinin toponimisini bu yönüyle incelemeyi amaçlamaktadır. Bu kapsamda Erzincan Belediyesi’nden temin edilen ve şehir alanı içerisinde kalan 57 mahalle, 147 cadde, 3 390 sokak, 5 meydan ve 6 bulvar adı ele alınmış ve bu adlar belli esaslara göre sınıflandırılmıştır. Buna göre, Erzincan’daki bahsi geçen şehirsel mekânlara önemli şahıs adlarının, cumhuriyetle ilgili adların ve şehit adlarının yaygın olarak verildiği görülmüştür. Bu yönüyle Erzincan şehrindeki adlandırmaların ulus kimlik oluşturma ve hatırlama paradigması ile örtüştüğü ve Erzincan şehrine bir kimlik kattığı tespit edilmiştir. Nitekim adlandırmalarda kullanılan Osmanlı padişahları, Cumhuriyet dönemi şahısları, dini önderler ve yakın zaman siyasi kişilikler dikkate alındığında, Erzincan şehrinde milliyetçi-muhafazakâr bir eğilimin varlığı görülebilmektedir.

Internacionalización de las empresas agrícolas y ganaderas chinas (2006-2021)
Authors: Wegner Rubia
Published: October 2023

El objetivo central fue analizar los elementos que caracterizan la Inversión Extranjera Directa (IED) de las empresas agrícolas chinas en el contexto de la actual modernización de la agricultura en el país. La premisa es que la internacionalización de las empresas del sector constituye una estrategia para acceder a grandes empresas competitivas en eslabones anteriores de la cadena de valor –aguas arriba–, así como a bienes intermedios, a empresas con mayores niveles de capacidad tecnológica acumulada o para fortalecer la marca en los mercados internacionales. De este modo, la internacionalización de las empresas agrícolas chinas es una forma de internalizar los departamentos industriales en la agricultura del país. Las empresas estatales, subordinadas a la SASAC –acrónimo inglés de State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission– pueden considerarse las grandes empresas chinas que guían la internacionalización en una especie de división del trabajo que impulsa la actividad económica nacional en la agricultura. Metodológicamente, la investigación se fundamentó en revisión bibliográfica de los principales estudios sobre las empresas multinacionales en los países en desarrollo –particularmente China–, las empresas multinacionales en la agricultura y la ganadería, así como una encuesta de datos e información de las transacciones de Inversión Extranjera Directa (IED) realizadas por las empresas chinas en la agricultura desde 2013, a partir de lo cual se presenta el patrón de IED china. Se describe brevemente la historia, la estructura organizativa y algunos indicadores de la multinacional estatal COFCO Group, que puede considerarse la empresa líder del sector en China y la que impulsa la creación, consolidación y crecimiento de las empresas que operan en el mercado nacional de alimentación y bebidas del país. Entre sus estrategias están, por ejemplo, cumplir con la revitalización del medio rural presentada por el Consejo de Estado y el Comité Central del Partido Comunista de China (PCCh). La principal conclusión es que la modernización agrícola de China articula la pequeña y la gran producción, en tanto que las empresas multinacionales tiran de esta articulación haciendo que China ocupe cada vez más una posición de liderazgo en el sistema agroalimentario internacional.
Hábitos de consumo de quinua y rendimiento académico de estudiantes universitarios del sur del Perú
Authors: Flores Emilio , Inquilla Juan , Apaza Jorge , Rodríguez Rolando , Yucra Paola
Published: October 2023

La quinua es un alimento de alto valor nutritivo, por lo que se consume en hogares rurales y urbanos en los últimos años. Una ingesta frecuente, administrada en la alimentación de los estudiantes universitarios, puede contribuir en el mejor rendimiento académico. El artículo trata sobre el análisis de la asociación entre hábitos de consumo de la quinua como alimento con alto valor nutritivo y el rendimiento académico de los estudiantes universitarios del sur del Perú. Para desarrollar el estudio se utilizó el enfoque cuantitativo, de tipo descriptivo, correlacional y transeccional. Para recolectar la información se aplicó la técnica de la encuesta al azar a los estudiantes que habían cursado al menos cuatro semestres académicos en tres de las universidades más grandes del sur del Perú: la Universidad Nacional del Altiplano, Universidad Nacional San Agustín de Arequipa y Universidad Nacional de San Antonio Abad del Cusco, vía online a una muestra proporcional de 384 estudiantes en la época de la pandemia COVID-19. Las variables objeto de estudio fueron hábitos de consumo de la quinua en sus dimensiones frecuencia de consumo, razones de consumo y creencias de consumo y la variable rendimiento académico. La prueba estadística utilizada fue la Chi-cuadrado de Pearson que permitió hallar la asociación entre variables. Los resultados indicaron que los estudiantes consumen la quinua en sus diferentes presentaciones con frecuencias regulares durante la semana para lograr altas calificaciones en sus estudios, que oscilan entre 14-16 puntos de la escala vigesimal para el mayor porcentaje de los participantes del estudio. Así mismo, para 18% de estudiantes estudiados el consumo de quinua les ha permitido inclinarse hacia estudios con cierta complejidad, como es la resolución de problemas. Se concluye que el consumo de la quinua ayudaría al estudiante a mejorar su rendimiento académico en las diferentes asignaturas que cursan durante los semestres, por lo que se infiere que sí existe una asociación entre dichas variables. No obstante, la dificultad de acceder a las notas reales de los alumnos debido a la pandemia limitó el alcance de los resultados de la investigación.
Serviços ecossistêmicos e percepção de frequentadores em praias no estado de Pernambuco
Authors: De Souza Nivaldo Lemos , Torres Maria Fenanda Abrantes , Vila Nova Fátima Verônica Pereira , Ferreira Junior Antonio Vicente
Published: October 2023

Serviços ecossistêmicos são todos os benefícios tangíveis e intangíveis que os ecossistemas propiciam e que dão benefícios ao bem-estar dos seres humanos. O trabalho aborda a distribuição dos serviços ecossistêmicos e a percepção dos frequentadores sobre estes serviços nas praias dos municípios do Recife e Jaboatão dos Guararapes, Pernambuco. Com a alta urbanização ocorrida no litoral brasileiro e a consequente supressão dos ecossistemas costeiros, fica clara a importância da constatação da forma com que os serviços ecossistêmicos atuam em ambientes de praia com modificações causadas pelo ordenamento urbano desenfreado. Com base em índices formados com a coleta de informações a partir de parâmetros pré-selecionados, chegou-se à conclusão de que houve perda significativa dos serviços ecossistêmicos onde a urbanização é mais acentuada, como, por exemplo, nos bairros de Candeias e Boa Viagem, devido à curta extensão da linha de praia causada pela erosão costeira. A partir dos resultados obtidos através de 120 questionários semiestruturados, foi possível notar que os frequentadores consideraram importante a função da praia para a manutenção do bem-estar humano, incentivando práticas de educação ambiental e políticas públicas de conservação. O esforço para demonstrar como os serviços ecossistêmicos se arranjam e influenciam em praias urbanas é essencial para a tomada de decisão em projetos, tanto para a conscientização por parte de frequentadores e moradores locais quanto para a melhoria futura desses ambientes em ações mitigadoras.
Conservação da Mata Atlântica no Antropoceno: retrocessos legais em Santa Catarina, Brasil
Authors: Dos Santos Claudia Regina , Medeiros João De Deus , De Freitas Rodrigo Rodrigues
Published: October 2023

O bioma Mata Atlântica é o quinto mais ameaçado do mundo e, no Brasil, foi declarado Patrimônio Nacional pela Constituição Federal de 1988, momento em que vigorava o Novo Código Florestal de 1965. Em seguida, o bioma recebeu proteção normativa específica, condicionando seu uso ao cumprimento de critérios que assegurem sua conservação. Santa Catarina tem seu território integralmente inserido na Mata Atlântica onde predominam os ecossistemas florestais representados pela Floresta Ombrófila Densa, Floresta Ombrófila Mista, Floresta Estacional Decidual, Campos de Altitude e Vegetação Litorânea. As ameaças ao bioma se intensificaram com a publicação do Despacho MMA nº 4.410/2020, que obrigou todos os seus órgãos e entidades vinculadas a autorizar atividades econômicas em Área de Preservação Permanente (APP) irregularmente degradadas até 2008, e não a partir de 1990, conforme previsto na Lei da Mata Atlântica. Apesar de ter sido revogado posteriormente, em Santa Catarina o órgão ambiental manteve orientação balizada nos termos do despacho do Ministério do Meio Ambiente de 2020. Neste artigo são analisados os efeitos e as consequências desta mudança institucional para a conservação da Mata Atlântica no Estado. Os dados foram obtidos por meio de pesquisa em fontes documentais e legislação, coletados entre janeiro e julho de 2021. O marco temporal para análise inicia em 1965 com a publicação do Novo Código Florestal e segue até junho de 2021. Os dados levantados foram analisados a partir de quatro “corredores de claridade”, termo utilizado para tratar da tomada de ação política baseada em evidências científicas. A desconsideração pelo marco temporal (1990 - 2008) para a restauração das APPs em Santa Catarina é caracterizado como um retrocesso, tendo em vista a relevância da conservação das zonas costeiras para prevenir desastres e demais efeitos das mudanças no clima, como a viabilidade das economias no Antropoceno.

Some formulations are less problematic than others. Singers and singing teachers should be familiar with inhaled steroid medications, their potential adverse effects, and with treatment options.
Reorganizing the Pillars of Voice Pedagogy: A Tiered Approach to Teaching Voice
Authors: McCarther Sean , Arneson Christopher
Published: October 2023

Many pedagogy texts and classes are organized around a linear progression: alignment, respiration, phonation/registration, resonance, then articulation. While this organization is easy to understand and implement, it does not inherently account for the complex interrelationships among the various subsystems. This article proposes a conceptual framework that reorganizes some of the key elements of vocal technique into hierarchical tiers. This four-tiered model acknowledges that some concepts are more foundational than others. However, it also recognizes that the elements within the tiers interact in complex ways. Woven throughout each tier is the relationship between technique and expression. Students have reported that this organizational structure has made their practice more efficient and increased their self-efficacy and autonomy as musicians.
On Migration, Exile, and Cosmopolitanism: A Brief Survey of South African Art Song
Authors: de Villiers Nico
Published: October 2023

One of the genres that comprise the different musics of South Africa is that of the art song. Imported through its European heritage, the art song has found a place in the portfolios of South African composers throughout the twentieth century. However, against the backdrop of its complicated history, South Africa’s art songs often seem to reflect themes of exile, inner struggle and nostalgia. This article contemplates how these themes resonate through South Africa’s complex history, and how they have subsequently been reflected in the genre of art song, with specific reference to songs by composers S. le Roux Marais, Hubert du Plessis, Arnold van Wyk, Peter Klatzow, Hendrik Hofmeyr, and Bongani Ndodana-Breen.

Practical Approaches In Coordinating Registration for the Cis-Gender Female Musical Theatre Singer
Authors: Wilson Kevin
Published: October 2023

For successful navigation of the five sub-genres of musical theatre: legit, contemporary legit, standard belt, contemporary belt, and pop/rock, the cisgender female must possess flexible registration strategies. Singers must cultivate technical awareness to negotiate between these styles with aesthetic and artistic integrity while maintaining functional efficiency. To achieve this, singers must explore and condition their voices with various adjustments to the breathing, phonation, articulation, and resonance systems. This article offers a toolbox of exercises to help singers with registration exploration, coordination, breath flow and resistance balance, articulator shaping, and variable aesthetic resonance qualities. The author suggests diagnostic and habilitative tools for using three distinct voice concepts: the Neutral Voice, the Binary Voice, and the Flexible Voice. In addition, the author suggests emotional simulation play to help students discover a wide variety of sounds and the effect of emotion on the subsystems of the singing voice. These suggested tools help cultivate a highly flexible voice ideal for a wide variety of musical theatre opportunities.

Uloga i značaj atletike u razrednoj nastavi
Authors: Ljubičić Sanja
Published: October 2023

Atletski sadržaji dio su cijele vertikale odgoja i obrazovanja prilagođeni razvojnim karakteristikama djece. Nastavne teme proizašle su iz nastavnih cjelina: hodanja i trčanja, skakanja, bacanja što je sukladno osnovnoj podjeli grupaciji atletskih disciplina. Svrha ovog rada jest prikazati značaj atletskih sadržaja u nastavi tjelesne i zdravstvene kulture u razrednoj nastavi. Utvrđena je pojavnost atletskih sadržaja kroz nastavne planove i programe tjelesne i zdravstvene kulture u razrednoj nastavi te je prikazana uloga i relevantnost atletskih sadržaja. Rezultati istraživanja ukazuju da su atletske nastavne teme najzastupljenije u prvom razredu osnovne škole (40%), a što su djeca kronološki starija tako se broj atletskih tema smanjuje (u drugom razredu 34,61%, u trećem razredu 28,56% i u četvrtom razredu 19,23%). Raznolikost motoričkih elemenata koje sadrži atletika jesu baza gotovo svih sportskih aktivnosti, bilo ekipnih ili pojedinačnih. Opisom pojedinih grupacija disciplina ukazalo se na značaj ali i potrebu za daljnjom modifikacijom i implementacijom atletskih sadržaja kada se radi s djecom razredne nastave. Praktično iskustvo, ali i teorijska znanja, ukazuju na važnost usavršavanja tehničke izvedbe jer ona posebno u kasnijim razvojnim fazama dolaze do izražaja u vidu volumena trenažnog opterećenja, ali i potrebe za svladavanjem složenijih motoričkih znanja.
Turris babylonia; re-evaluation of a species complex and description of Turris assyria, new species
Authors: Olivera Baldomero , Seronay Romell , Fedosov Alexander
Published: October 2023

Turris babylonia (Linnaeus, 1758) is the designated type species of Turris, the nominate genus of the family Turridae. This species has unusual taxonomic significance, since the family Turridae is a large biodiverse group that has been highly problematic in its taxonomy. In this article, we address the identity of Turris babylonia: molecular data presented here and expanded elsewhere demonstrate that two distinctive varieties with divergent shell morphology, both conventionally assigned to Turris babylonia, are in fact different species. We describe one of the forms as Turris assyria, new species. Thus, specimens previously assigned to Turris babylonia now comprise at least two taxa, Turris babylonia and Turris assyria; it remains possible that each is a multi-species complex. Some of the numerous varieties and morphologically divergent forms in each complex may prove not to be conspecific with the two species, each precisely defined in this work by a specific barcode sequence.
Prevalence of community-acquired methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus from inmates of the Manila City Jail, characterization for SCCmec type and occurrence of Panton-Valentine leukocidin gene
Authors: Cabrera Esperanza , Ramirez-Argamosa Dahlia Teresa , Rodriguez Roslyn
Published: October 2023

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) has established itself as a significant cause of hospital and community-acquired infections worldwide. Resistance to methicillin compromises clinical treatment options, as it results in cross resistances to all other β-lactam antibiotics, which are the most commonly prescribed antibacterial agents. The study determined the prevalence of MRSA among inmates of the Manila City Jail with and without pyoderma, their antibiograms (susceptibility to other antimicrobial agents), SCCmec type and occurrence of the lukslukf Panton-Valentine leukocidin (PVL) virulence gene among the isolates. Methicillin resistance was determined using oxacillin and cefoxitin discs and the detection of mecA gene and its product, PBP2a. The MRSA isolates were studied for their SCCmec types and for the presence of the PVL gene using multiplex polymerized chain reaction and nucleotide sequencing. Staphylococcus aureus was isolated from 78% of 105 inmates M with pyoderma, 41% of which were resistant to methicillin, giving an overall prevalence rate of 32% among the infected inmates. Nasal carriage rates of S. aureus and MRSA among 104 inmates without pyoderma were 12% and 5%, respectively. All MRSA were susceptible to vancomycin; 35% and 44% were susceptible to erythromycin and clindamycin, respectively. Intermediate susceptibility to erythromycin and clindamycin was seen in 59% and 50%, respectively, while 6% were resistant to each of erythromycin and clindamycin. PBP2a and mecA gene were present in 94% of the 35 MRSA isolates tested. SCCmec type IV was demonstrated in 30 of the 33 isolates with mecA gene, while the remaining three were of SCCmec type I. PVL gene was detected in 83% of MRSA isolates. Nucleotide sequencing of the PCR amplicons from representative isolates studied all showed a G to C transversion at position 1004 of the luks-lukf gene, resulting in the substitution of valine (GTT) with leucine (CTT). This is the first report on the prevalence of MRSA carrying SCCmec type IV and the PVL genes in the Philippines and in a jail setting. Type IV mecA is the most easily transferred SCCmec, and its acquisition converts methicillin susceptible strains to resistance, while luks-lukf PVL is a composite of virulence genes that results in more serious infections. The study shows that community-acquired infection with this strain exists, and can be a growing problem that has to be fully addressed immediately to prevent further spread not only within the crowded penitentiary, but in the community as well.

A depressão pós-parto é um transtorno mental e social que é causada principalmente por complicações na gestação, sendo mais comum entre 4 e 6 semanas após o parto, contudo pode vir a acontecer em até 1 ano após o nascimento. A prevalência da DPP é dada em mulheres que foram vítimas de violência sexual, psicológica e física quando comparada a mulheres que não foram abusadas, revelando a associação entre DPP e abusos realizados por parceiro íntimo. Com isso, este artigo é uma revisão sistemática integrativa e visa estabelecer a relação entre violência cometida pelo parceiro íntimo e o desenvolvimento da DPP. As buscas foram realizadas, até novembro de 2022, em dois bancos de dados: PubMed e BVS, usando os seguintes descritores: “Depression, Postpartum”, “Domestic Violence” e “Spouse Abuse”, sendo selecionados artigos com objetivo, resultados, desfechos e conclusões relevantes para responder à pergunta de pesquisa. Sendo considerados fatores de inclusão os artigos que analisaram a relação entre VPI e o desenvolvimento de DPP, dentro de um espaço de 12 anos. Desse modo, foram selecionados artigos com diferentes delineamentos experimentais, os quais mostraram os fatores que tornam mais frequentes no acometimento da DPP, os quais convergiram a grande influência da VPI. Desta forma, é possível concluir que mulheres vítimas de violências realizadas por parceiro íntimo estão mais suscetíveis a desenvolverem DPP em comparação às mulheres que não sofreram essa condição.
Teachers' pedagogical attitude on using digital lesson contents in teaching and learning in Zanzibar secondary schools

Published: October 2023

Digital curricula have been emphasized to improve the quality of education at all levels of education. Implementing a new curriculum depends on teachers' attitudes to integrate it during teaching and learning. This study investigated the attitudes of teachers and factors that affect them towards using digital lesson content in Zanzibar, the case of Wete District. One hundred fifty-four secondary school teachers responded to the questionnaire. The SPSS version 25 was used to run the Chi-squared test and descriptive statistics to analyse the data. The overall attitude was calculated by finding the questions' mean value per Likert level. The study found that teachers’ pedagogical attitude is positive, but implementing digital lesson content in Zanzibar is still challenging. It was also observed that the attitude was significantly associated with gender (p=0.0084), whereby female respondents had higher positive attitudes (68.82%) compared to male respondents (47.44%). The paper concludes that most teachers have a positive attitude towards using digital lesson content in teaching in secondary schools. However, they lack enough relevant digital resources that support digital lesson content. Based on that, policymakers, curriculum developers, and other education stakeholders should take serious action to improve the quality of education practice in Zanzibar. Therefore, this paper recommends that the availability of digital lesson content and in-service training may encourage teachers’ pedagogical attitude to integrate digital materials into their everyday teaching process.
Efforts To Increase Community Capacity Through Msme Assistance In Ntb Province Post The 2018 Lombok Earthquake Disaster

Published: October 2023

The earthquake disaster that hit Lombok on August 5 2018 has caused problems in NTB's economic recovery that have not been resolved. As a province highly dependent on the tourism sector, the impact of sluggish tourism due to the earthquake also impacted the weakening of other economic sectors. To overcome this problem, a strategy for the recovery program for UMKM (micro, small and medium enterprises) and IKM (small and medium industries) is taken which is fair, equitable, and on target. This strategy is considered the most effective in creating synergies with other economic sectors, including tourism. The presence of UMKM and IKM is often closely related to the existence of tourism destinations which are the backbone of the NTB economy. This research aims to provide an overview of the distribution and assist community capacity building through MSMEs in NTB to various parties, in order to facilitate the implementation of MSME and IKM recovery programs to revive the economy.

Published: October 2023

In international law, espionage committed by one country against another in the form of wiretapping is a form of violation of international law and can disrupt relations between the two countries concerned. In this case, Australia had wiretapped Indonesian executive officials such as the President and his deputy in 2013. The action caused the intensity of the relationship between Indonesia and Australia to heat up. In this case, the geographical proximity between Indonesia and Australia causes the two countries to need each other, especially in dealing with cross-border crimes involving the two countries. This research intends to find out how the influence of Australia's wiretapping actions in Indonesia to the bilateral cooperation in handling transnational crimes. This research will use Butler's conflict management theory to examine the resolution of the conflict and how the resolution affects the cooperation between the two countries. From this research, it is known that the actions taken by Australia made the relationship between Indonesia and Australia tense. This was followed by the termination of bilateral cooperation projects between Indonesia and Australia. One of the areas of discontinued cooperation is cooperation in combating transnational crimes between the Indonesian National Police (Polri) and the AFP. This situation will create a loophole for perpetrators of cross-border crimes in carrying out their actions between the two countries, one of the most vulnerable transnational crimes is related to people smuggling. This affects the maritime security sector between the two which must be anticipated immediately.

Published: October 2023

Proficiency in IELTS writing tasks is crucial for obtaining high scores in this internationally recognized test. This quasi-experimental study investigated the effectiveness of corrective feedback in improving the gain scores of both academic writing task 1 and task 2. Sixty Iranian students participated in pre/post-test administrations, with the experimental group receiving instruction based on the analysis made on 10 model essays, and the control group received reformulation on their own produced texts. Two skilled raters assessed the students' typewritten texts in terms of task response and "coherence/cohesion" – two writing band descriptors. After conducting ANOVA and Bonferroni post hoc tests, the results demonstrated that the treatment group achieved significantly higher scores in the two mentioned components. In both the post-test and delayed post-test, the Experimental Group (EG) consistently outperformed the Control Group (CG) in task response sub-scale of academic writing task 1 & 2 (p < 0.05). Further examination, employing a multi-mediator approach, accentuates the substantial impact of these writing rubrics on the overall IELTS score. Additionally, within the EG, there was a significant increase in coherence scores between the pretest and posttest (p < 0.05). However, no statistically significant change was observed between the post-test and the delayed post test (p > 0.05).
Redesigned Close Reading: An Integrated Approach to Improving the Writing of Chinese Learners
Authors: Song Ruijun
Published: October 2023

The study investigated the effects of close reading and writing among 13 Chinese English as a foreign language (EFL) learners over an 11-week course. The course was designed to focus on multiple close readings for writing summaries, craft writing, and writing planning. The results of standardised reading and writing tests were used to quantitatively analyse the data using a paired sample t-test. The results indicated a statistically significant improvement in English learners’ writing and demonstrated a relationship between reading and writing after the learners participated in the course. Subsequently, qualitative data from semi-structured interviews were thematically analysed. Learners reported the benefits of repeated reading and annotating to written summaries, different reading purposes for developing writing skills, and the practice of after close reading discussions for writing planning and promoting independent writing. Therefore, our findings suggest that the implementation of redesigned close reading can be used to improve Chinese EFL learners’ writing.
Birth Order and Executive Risk-Taking: A Study on CEO Behavioral Disposition
Authors: Lin Yuchen
Published: October 2023

This paper explores the potential influence of chief executive officers’ (CEOs’) birth order on corporate decision-making. Drawing upon both theoretical frameworks and existing empirical studies, birth order considerably impacts individual personality attributes and risk aversion tendencies. Our analyses reveal a pronounced positive association between CEO’s birth order and their propensity for risk-taking. Specifically, CEOs born later in their familial succession are more inclined to risk-taking than their first-born counterparts, who are more conservative. These findings persist after controlling for CEO characteristics, year, and industry-specific factors. Moreover, further analyses were conducted to mitigate potential selection biases in companies choosing CEOs with specific risk preferences.
