Authors: GUNAWAN NALIA TASYA , SWASTAWATI FRONTHEA , RIYADI PUTUT HAR
Published: September 2022

Barracuda fish balls are a diversified fishery product made from surimi. Fish balls on the market have almost the same taste, so they have the potential to be developed. One way is to add a smoked taste to the barracuda fish balls using liquid smoke. There is a lot of information about the use of liquid smoke on meat balls and chicken balls. However, regarding the effect of using liquid smoke with different immersion times on fish balls, which is especially related to physical characteristics, it is still limited. There is a lot of information about the use of liquid smoke on meat balls and chicken balls. However, the effect of using liquid smoke with different immersion times on fish balls is still limited. The purpose of this study was to determine the characteristics of barracuda fish balls after immersion in liquid smoke and the sensory value of barracuda fish balls with different immersion times. The experimental laboratory research method uses a Completely Randomized Design. The research was conducted by making barracuda fish balls and then soaking them in a liquid smoke solution for 20, 40, and 60 minutes. The test results showed that the immersion of liquid smoke at different times significantly affected all test parameters (p<0,05). The liquid smoke immersion resulted in the lowest water content and TPC values of barracuda fish balls, 65,61±0,18% and 4,66±0,02 log cfu/g, respectively. While immersion in liquid smoke resulted in the highest protein content, phenol content, ash content and gel strength, respectively, 17,13±0,40%, 0,06±0,012%, 0,85±0,03% and 1791,25±38,99 g.cm. The test results also showed that there was histamine in the barracuda fish balls sample. Soaking barracuda fish balls in liquid smoke for 20 minutes was able to increase the sensory value of the fish balls up to 8,59<µ<8,81 compared to control 7,55 <µ<7,81.

Published: September 2022

It has been frequently demonstrated that alcohol dependence is linked to emotional deficits, notably in the interpretation of emotional facial expressions. This paper presents the findings of several researches that investigated the impact of alcohol on speech acoustic-phonetic characteristics and on video. The method for detecting intoxication in a specific suspect using facial landmarks is the subject of the proposed study. The main objective of this research paper is to acquire an understanding of detection of alcohol of individuals before they start their job. The samples from various facial landmarks using facial video sequences and speech samples audio recordings using were then subjected to perceptual and acoustic analyses; were made of individual producing lists of sentences. This paper proposes real-time comprehensive employee alcohol impairment through our algorithm. This paper presents our views on the importance of detecting alcohol impairment considering the safety and health in the workplace at a preliminary stage with state-of-art technology before even starting a job.

It is found that facial lines changed significantly after consuming alcohol and that facial landmark vectors were the most predictive features. It is believed that consumption of alcohol produces changes in the speech production that are often described as slurred speech.

Tests revealed that under the influence of alcohol has been found to be slower, lower in all amplitudes, more prone to errors at the word, sentences and phonological levels. Our experiments are based on observations at different sites and novel deep learning architecture is proposed for giving real world performance.

Authors: Kim Minhyun , Santiago José A. , Yu Hyeonho , Baek Jun-Hyung
Published: September 2022

Background/Purpose. K-12 students’ motivation levels have declined in physical education (PE) due to the lack of effective instructional practices, inappropriate class activities and gender inequities. Middle school students have shown low levels of motivation in physical education and lack of interest in its content. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to examine middle school students’ intrinsic motivation and expectancy value after participating in team sports units. Method. Participants consisted of 262 students (122 males; 140 females) from three middle schools located in the southwest region of the United States. After participating in team sport units during PE, the participants completed the expectancy-value questionnaire (Eccles & Wigfield, 1995) and motivation inventory (McAuley, Duncan, & Tammen, 1989). Analysis/Results. Data were analyzed by employing descriptive statistics, t-test, and analysis of variance. Results showed that 6th grade students perceived significantly higher expectancy-value and intrinsic value than 8th grade students in team sports. In addition, male students exhibited significantly higher expectancy-value and intrinsic value compare to female students. However, there was no statistically significant difference among ethnic groups. Conclusion.  This study suggests that female students had lower levels of intrinsic motivation and expectancy value in team sports compared to male students. Furthermore, as students’ grade level increased from 6th to 8th grade, intrinsic motivation and expectancy value decreased.

Published: September 2022

Three-quarters of American adults do not meet recommended guidelines for physical activity. This article presents results from a pilot study of 3 WINS Fitness (“3 WINS”), a free, park-based program for adults that started in 2011 at California State University, Northridge. The program is operated by kinesiology student interns. The pilot study took place in one large park in Los Angeles and included three sessions per week for 10 weeks. Methods: The main outcome was change in BMI after the 10-week program. We collected pre-post data on 66 participants. Change in BMI was examined for the sample as a whole and by normal weight, overweight, and obese classifications. Results: We found a small but significant decrease in BMI at program completion; however, there appeared to be less improvement for participants who were obese. Acceptability of the program was high. Most participants (78.5%) attended 50% of sessions or more. Conclusions: 3 WINS is a promising health promotion program that has the potential to be sustainable and scalable. Implementation of 3 WINS at the site of this pilot study has remained active since 2011. The sustainability of 3 WINS is facilitated by integrating the program into university kinesiology programs, creating partnerships with local parks, and reducing reliance on external funding to implement the program. The program has been adopted by numerous parks throughout Southern California and several universities throughout California.

Published: September 2022

Testing how individuals use visual information to maintain balance has been traditionally limited to two extreme conditions: eyes closed and eyes open. Stroboscopic glasses allow clinicians to control the amount of visual information that influences balance, varying between eyes open and closed. Seventeen uninjured participants completed the sensory organization test (SOT) under three visual conditions: full occlusion, high occlusion (i.e., 100ms transparent, 400ms opaque), and low occlusion (i.e., 100ms transparent, 100ms opaque). Equilibrium scores were calculated from the Neurocom Balance Master system during double-limb stance and the three-trial average from each condition and SOT was used for analysis. A two-way repeated measures ANOVA was used to evaluate the interaction between and within factors of vision (i.e., full occlusion, high occlusion, low occlusion, and no occlusion) and support surface (i.e., firm and sway). Increased visual occlusion negatively impacts balance on a firm surface and is amplified when somatosensory cues are unreliable. These findings highlight the importance of somatosensory cues as a guiding sensory modality for balance, especially when vision is occluded.

Published: September 2022

A qualitative study of loose parts inclusion and the collaboration process was used as a basis for establishing a grounded theory of collaboration during play. The purpose was to determine common themes. Did data sets define themes between populations and across recording techniques? Three data sets included 1) children’s drawings, 2) teacher comments, and 3) photographs taken on the school playground. Information derived from the data was recorded in drawing aspect, activity identified, and word association. Reliability between data coders required resolution of discrepancies until 100% agreement was reached. An ‘Emergent Theme’ rule set was used. Rule 1 required the idea occurred across at least two sets data to qualify as a theme. Rule 2 required commonality between words or in concept. Emergent themes included pretend play, gross motor, construction, and enclosed spaces. Collaboration and cooperation required from children during arrangement of loose part indicated sophisticated play behavior.

Authors: Bell Kenneth , G. Johnson Tyler , M. Shimon Jane , Bale John
Published: September 2022

The purpose of this study was to determine the impact of participating in small (3v3), medium (6v6), and large-sided (12v12) games on the physical activity levels (pedometer step counts, accelerometer counts, and minutes of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity) and ball touches of children in physical education class. Participants were 29 students (55% boys and 45% girls) age 10-11 yrs. All participants wore a Yamax SW-200 pedometer and had their ball touches monitored and recorded. Twelve participants also wore an ActiGraph GT3X accelerometer. Repeated measure ANOVAs were computed to test for significant differences for each dependent variable with corresponding post hoc tests. Results indicated the 3v3 and 6v6 game conditions yielded significantly higher accelerometer counts and ball touches than the 12v12 condition. The 3v3 game condition also produced significantly higher ball touches than the 6v6 condition. These findings highlight the importance of utilizing smaller-sided games in physical education to promote increased involvement and physical activity.

Published: September 2022

The purpose of this study was to examine the educational methods coaches in the United States use to obtain coaching knowledge (CK) and develop a coaching philosophy (CP). Thirteen methods in learning how to coach were identified from the coaching education literature and used to develop an online survey instrument to examine the methods coaches most frequently use in obtaining CK and developing a CP. The results indicated that coaches (n = 1,082) in the United States preferred informal educational methods in acquiring CK and developing a CP. Additionally, 71.4 % of coaches in the study utilized informal discussion with other coaches multiple times throughout the year to acquire CK compared to 54.2% of coaches seeking to develop CP.
A comparison of fitness ratings to exercise patterns and motivations among college students
Authors: Ednie Andrea , D. Stibor Michael
Published: September 2022

This study compares fitness ratings with exercise patterns and motivations within a sample of college students. Study participants (n=172) were recruited to complete an online survey about their exercise patterns and motivations, and to participate in a round of fitness assessments. Exercise motivations were measured using the Exercise Motivations Inventory-2, and five fitness assessments were selected to represent body composition, muscular strength, muscular endurance, aerobic capacity, and flexibility. Cluster analyses were completed to group the participants according to their fitness assessment results, and ANOVA and χ2 tests identified differences in motivations across the fitness groups. Differences in both gender and self-reported physical activity patterns were also identified across the fitness groups. The fitness cluster groups differed across six of the EMI-2 motivational factors. The differences in motives across the fitness groups identify clear trends demonstrating self-determined versus extrinsic motivations, however, they also lead to questions regarding the multiple meanings particular motivation components may have. Exercise patterns reported by participants were consistent with their placement in the fitness groups.
The reciprocal influence of exercise on academic performance and relationships
Authors: Mielke Elizabeth , Ednie Andrea
Published: September 2022

The current study seeks to better understand exercise habits among the college demographic. It examined the relationships between exercise patterns and aspects of college performance and life. The study explored how exercise influences the lives of college students including relationships, academics and work performance as outlined by Segar (2015). Specifically, the study explored the association between exercise and GPA, as well as the perceived interaction between exercise and academic performance, university and home friendships, and work performance. A survey was completed within a general education course at a midwestern university (81% response rate, N=502). Godin & Shephard’s (1985) validated Leisure Time Exercise Questionnaire was used to measure total exercise scores, and measures of perceived exercise benefits were developed for the study based on Segar (2015). One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) tests, Pearson bivariate correlations, and linear regression analyses were completed to evaluate differences in student GPA based on exercise habits, and the associations between exercise patterns and perceived benefits of exercise on academic performance, friend and family relationships, and work performance. Female participants with higher GPAs were found to report more exercise as compared to those with lower GPAs. The regression analyses found significant associations between the perception that exercise benefits academic performance and actual exercise patterns, and for female students, between the perception that exercise benefits work performance and actual exercise patterns. The results add to existing research on the relationship between exercise and academics by providing context for the college demographic (including exercise patterns and perceptions differences between male and female students), and by applying Segar’s (2015) model of exercise benefits. Implications suggest strategies universities may implement in order to apply Segar’s (2015) theory to fitness marketing and programming.
Effects of partial body weight support on dual-task walking in older adults with multiple sclerosis
Authors: Chaparro Gioella N. , Motl Robert W. , Hernandez Manuel E.
Published: September 2022

Individuals with multiple sclerosis (MS) experience gait impairments, particularly while dual-tasking, that contribute to an increased risk of falls. Because falls negatively impact participation and quality of life, it is essential to examine how to improve dual-tasking gait. However, no studies, to date, have examined how gait variability is affected by partial body weight support (PBWS) while dual-tasking in older adults with MS. This study examined how PBWS can affect dual-tasking gait variability in older adults with MS and age-matched healthy older adults (HOA). Twenty individuals from each group underwent a dual-tasking paradigm under PBWS and no body weight support (NBWS) while recording gait variability measures. Under PBWS, older adults with MS exhibited significantly greater decreases in gait variability measurements (i.e. smaller coefficient of variation for step width and stride time) when compared with HOA and NBWS. These study findings suggest that PBWS can assist with dual-tasking gait variability and may serve as a therapeutic tool for clinicians and rehabilitation specialists for improving dual-task ability and potentially decreasing fall risk. This study was the first to investigate the effects of dual-tasking under PBWS on gait variability measures in older adults with MS and age-matched controls.
Cross-calibration of GE Lunar iDXA and Prodigy Densitometer for measurement of bone mineral density in young adults
Authors: Ramirez Erick A. , Escalante Guillermo , Chen Zhaojing
Published: September 2022

The assessment of bone mineral density (BMD) is essential to skeletal health, and dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is a type of bone densitometer that is extensively used in both clinical and research settings. When changing a DXA system during longitudinal monitoring or multicenter studies, it is important to conduct cross-calibration between the new and reference scanners to ensure that BMD values measured by the two systems are as close as possible. Purpose: To properly cross calibrate between the GE Lunar iDXA and Prodigy in healthy young adults. Methods: Thirty college students, ten males and twenty females, participated in the study. The BMD at the lumbar spine and dual femurs were measured using the GE iDXA and Prodigy by the same licensed technician on the same day. A paired sample t-test and linear regression analysis were utilized to compare the BMD values between the two systems. Limits of agreement were obtained by Bland-Altman analyses. Results: Although strong correlations were found between the two systems (r = 0.985 – 0.998), the iDXA had significantly higher lumbar spine (1.54%) and dual femur (1.28 - 1.56%) BMD values compared to the Prodigy. Conclusion: Our results suggest that calibration equations should be considered to examine data across densitometers to reduce system differences in the young adult population.

Published: September 2022

The primary aim of this study was to examine the attitudinal beliefs of college students, faculty, and staff at a public metropolitan university toward individuals with disabilities. This cross-sectional study utilized the Interactions with Disabled Persons Scale to assess current perceptions of individuals with disabilities of students, faculty, and staff (n=138). Independent t-tests and an ANOVA were utilized to examine differences between students and faculty/staff. Results revealed males, individuals with some experience in coursework related to individuals with disabilities, and those with higher volumes of contact with individuals with disabilities displayed lower scores on the IDP. Additional research utilizing a larger sample size is needed to confirm these findings. Importantly, this paper provides evidence of the need for efforts by kinesiology educators to provide curriculum and experiential activities that increase exposure to individuals with disabilities in order to heighten knowledge, lessen discomfort, and ultimately improve the experiences and outcomes of individuals with a disability at metropolitan universities.

Authors: Jones Derek , Fariss Jeffrey , Blaisdell Robert , Jimenez Laura , Morrison Jo
Published: September 2022

The effects of high-intensity exercise on cognitive performance are not fully understood. Music can affect physiological responses to exercise which may also affect cognitive performance. The aim of this study was to determine if music could impact cognitive performance after a bout of high-intensity exercise. Eleven subjects completed the Stroop test after a short (14 min) bout of high-intensity interval exercise while listening to either Classical, Rock, or No Music. Subjects completed the Brunel Music Rating Inventory after listening to Classical or Rock music during a control (no exercise) session. The order of testing was randomized. There was no significant main effect of either exercise (F(1,2) = 0.585, p = 0.524) or music (F(2,4) = 1.939, p = 0.258) on Stroop reaction time, nor was there a significant interaction effect of exercise and music on Stroop reaction time (F(2,4) = 0.045, p = .956). There was a significant main effect of exercise on heart rate response (F(1,2) = 564.005, p < 0.01). Mean heart rates were consistently higher during exercise (HRex= 148.2 ± 14.7) than during control sessions (HRcon= 76.1 ± 9.1). There was no other significant main effect for music (F(2,4) = 2.537, p = 0.194) or interaction effect of music and exercise (F(2,4) = 2.980, p = 0.161) on heart rate response. The results of the present study suggest that selective attention is resistant to the effects of a short high-intensity interval exercise bout and the distraction of either classical or rock music. The results also suggest that music may lower the average heart rate during high-intensity interval exercise.

Published: September 2022

Background. Stroke is one of the leading of the causes of disability and according to the global burden of disease (GBD) study in 2010 it is the second leading cause of death worldwide. Developing countries reported 85% global burden of stroke enduring 80 percent of death due to hemorrhagic strokes. Stroke-related hospitalization rate in India is 46 per 100,000 persons. However Stroke Riskometer App can be used to significantly improve stroke and Non- Communicable disease prevention, since it operates on latest expansions in risk allocution/communication, International guidelines on stroke and Cardio-Vascular Disease prevention. However, the app does not classify the risk individuals into low, moderate and high categories which will not create any impact over the high risk individual, therefore it calls for the need to classify the tool into low, moderate and high risk ranges. Aim. To classify the Stroke Riskometer App into low, moderate and high stroke risk ranges among adult and elderly population. Methods. Participants were 250 samples selected from Chettinad Academy of Research and Education and S.A. Poly Clinic, Chennai, for over a_period of 6 months (April 2021-September 2021) and the Stroke Riskometer questionnaire along with Framingham Stroke Profile was filled, risk percentage from both the tools were recorded using the App for each individual. Results. Frequency analysis and Chi-square tests were performed, classifying the range into < 5% as low, 6-10% as moderate and > 10% as high risk in Stroke Riskometer tool. In Chi-square test it showed n = 104 as low risk, n = 11 as moderate risk,n = 14 as high risk in both FRS and Stroke Riskometer respectively. The chi-square value is 24.224 and the significant p value is < 0.0001showing that the value is performing well with FRS score. Conclusion. Though the App was classified into ranges it need to be continually developed and validated with larger sample size, heterogenous population and robust ethnic groups.

Introduction. The level of fitness is fundamental in the athlete's success in achieving optimum performance. Aim. This paper aims to know the rate of recommended dietary allowances (RDA) and the physical activity to stay fit. Material and Methods. Analytical observational analysis with the cross-sectional design was the approach used in this study. Participants in this study is women's futsal player of 16 subjects was selected for measures of physical health, macronutrient consumption, nutritional status, nutritional awareness, and level of physical activity. Fitness levels were assessed using a Multi-stage Fitness Test (MFT), and nutritional knowledge and physical activity with the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ). Analysis of data is carried out in univariate, bivariate, and multivariate form using statistical software. Results. The findings of this analysis are that energy consumption, carbohydrates, and proteins are all under the RDA for most female futsal athletes. Nutritional status is not a significant relation with the degree of fitness. Better dietary awareness may enable us to pay more attention to safer and more healthy eating behavior. The conclusion is that the average intake of calories, carbohydrates, and proteins in most female futsal athletes is still well below the RDA. Nutritional status has no significant relationship with fitness level. Good nutritional knowledge will encourage a person to pay more attention to his eating behavior to be healthier and more balanced. Conclusions. The conclusion is that the average intake of energy, carbohydrates, and protein in most female futsal athletes is still far below the recommended Nutritional Adequacy Rate (RDA)

Aim of the study. The profession of a physiotherapist is still at the stage of shaping and strengthening its position, both in the group of medical professions and in social awareness. The study aimed to assess the scope of use and satisfaction with physiotherapy services provided as part of public and private health care. Matherials and methods. The study covered a total of 606 people (100%). The vast majority were women (506; 83.5%). The research tool was an original questionnaire made available via a Google form. The survey consisted of 35 questions, 5 of which concerned some socio-demographic characteristics. Results. Most of the respondents used commercial services financed from their own budget (258; 78.2%). The most frequently indicated criterion for selecting a public institution was the distance from the place of residence (97; 16,1%), and a private one – the opinion of friends (159; 26,24%). The largest number of respondents using physiotherapeutic services would choose commercial services if they had to be used again (224; 67.9%). Conclusions. More than half of the surveyed people used the services provided by a physiotherapist, moreover vast majority of respondents used commercial services, financed from their resources. Criteria for selecting public and private institutions were varied and the assessed satisfaction with commercial physiotherapeutic services was higher than public.

Published: September 2022

Purpose. The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy of two types of therapeutic exercise: core stability exercises and movement control exercises in pain and function. Methods. Thirty-five patients were diagnosed and referred to physiotherapy as CMLBP, their age ranged from 25–40 years old, patients divided randomly into two groups and assessed for their current level of pain using a visual analog scale (VAS) and for disability using Oswestry disability index (ODI) before and after the study. Both groups received a well-documented fully supervised exercise program as group I movement control exercise, and group II received core stability exercises. Results. Showed significant effect of both exercise approaches on reducing pain level and restoring function. Although the group I exercises showed to be more effective in reducing pain than group II, their difference regarding improving function was non-significant. Conclusion. Conservative forms of treatment (therapeutic exercises) still prove it is a successful, cost-effective treatment of choice in patients with chronic mechanical low back pain. Movement control exercises are superior in reducing pain to core stability exercises.

Published: September 2022

Im öffentlichen Diskurs zur Langzeitpflege ist nicht erst seit der Corona-Pandemie von zunehmendem Zeit-, Qualitäts- und Kostendruck die Rede. Für Beschäftigte wachsen die Herausforderungen, ohne dass von der Berufsgruppe – im Unterschied zu anderen Bereichen des Sozialsektors – stärkere Impulse zur Veränderung der Arbeitsbedingungen ausgehen. Der Beitrag argumentiert, dass dies auch mit der Rolle von Gefühlen zu erklären ist, die mit diversen Spannungen bzw. Dilemmata verbunden sind und die Handlungsoptionen der Gruppe beeinflussen. Auf Basis einer Fallstudie aus der ambulanten Pflege wird illustriert, wie institutionelle Vorgaben, Managementpraktiken und individuelle Bewältigungsoptionen in „Emotionsregimes“ führen, die darauf einwirken, wie sich Pflegekräfte mit anderen verbunden fühlen – also welche „Solidaritätshorizonte“ sich bei ihnen in Bezug auf Nutzer*innen, Kolleg*innen und die Gesamtgesellschaft ausbilden. Angesichts des Ineinandergreifens von Emotionsregimes und Solidaritätshorizonten scheint für die Berufsgruppe eine Statusverbesserung aus eigener Kraft eher unwahrscheinlich. Helfen kann nur ein breiterer und substanziellerer gesellschaftlicher Rückhalt.
Who cares? Langzeitpflege in Deutschland, Schweden und Italien
Authors: Rothgang Heinz , Gottschall Karin
Published: September 2022

Die Sicherstellung einer menschenwürdigen Versorgung Pflegebedürftiger stellt in entwickelten Wohlfahrtsstaaten eine zentrale Zukunftsaufgabe für Politik und Gesellschaft dar. Der Beitrag zeigt, dass die Absicherung des Pflegerisikos in westlichen Wohlfahrtsregimen nicht nur im Hinblick auf Generosität und Finanzierung variiert. Vielmehr unterscheiden sich die hier betrachteten drei Länder auch im Hinblick auf die Frage, wer die Pflege übernehmen soll und unter welchen Bedingungen sie erbracht wird. Der Beitrag arbeitet die Unterschiede und Gemeinsamkeiten heraus und fasst dabei auch die Probleme eines steigenden Arbeitskräftebedarfs und die Bedeutung migrantischer Arbeitskräfte ins Auge. Zur Erklärung der unterschiedlichen nationalen Pfade rekurriert der Beitrag auf das komplexe Zusammenspiel der Ausgestaltung der jeweiligen Pflegesicherungssysteme mit Arbeitsmarkt-, Geschlechter- und Migrationsregimen. Die Analyse zeigt auch, dass in allen drei Ländern die zukünftige Leistungserbringung nicht gesichert ist und daher Maßnahmen ergriffen werden müssen, um „gute Arbeitsbedingungen“ als Voraussetzung für „gute Pflege“ zu schaffen.
Potenziale für „gute Arbeit“ im Privathaushalt? Regulierung und Interessenvertretung migrantischer Pflegekräfte in Italien
Authors: Seiffarth Marlene
Published: September 2022

Die wachsende Bedeutung von häuslicher Altenpflege durch Migrant*innen wirft Fragen nach der Sicherstellung von „guter Arbeit“ im Privathaushalt auf. Denn der Arbeitsort Privathaushalt ist oft durch informelle Arbeitsverhältnisse und unzureichende Arbeitsbedingungen gekennzeichnet ; Eingriffe und Regulation durch staatliche oder kollektive Akteure sind in diesem Sektor meist begrenzt. Anders als in Deutschland gibt es in Italien jedoch umfassende Regulierungs- und Formalisierungsbestrebungen seitens der Tarifparteien und des Staates. Der Beitrag untersucht auf Basis von 22 inhaltsanalytisch ausgewerteten Expert*innen-Interviews die historischen Wurzeln und Formalisierungstendenzen des migrant-in-the-family model in Italien. Ungeachtet fortbestehender Handlungsbedarfe zeigt der Fall Italien Potenziale für die Ermöglichung von „guter Arbeit“ im Privathaushalt auf, die auch für Deutschland von Interesse sind.
Migrantische Arbeitskräfte in der formellen Altenpflege in Deutschland und Schweden
Authors: Noack Kristin , Storath Greta-Marleen
Published: September 2022

Die Altenpflege steht in Deutschland und Schweden seit Jahren vor großen Herausforderungen: Die demografische Alterung führt zu steigenden Pflegebedarfen, und nicht erst seit der Corona-Pandemie werden prekäre Arbeitsbedingungen beklagt. Vor diesem Hintergrund gibt es in beiden Ländern steigende Zahlen an migrantischen Pflegefach- und Hilfskräften, um Personallücken und unbesetzte Ausbildungsplätze zu füllen. Doch worin besteht ihre Bedeutung für die Pflegeerbringung in den jeweiligen Ländern und wie wird diese von verschiedenen gesellschaftlichen Akteur*innen wahrgenommen? In diesem Beitrag berichten die Autorinnen von ersten empirischen Erkenntnissen aus qualitativen Expert*innen-Interviews mit nationalen und lokalen Stakeholdern in Deutschland und Schweden. In beiden Ländern wird die Arbeitsmarkteinbindung von Migrant*innen als eine wichtige Antwort auf Personalmangel formuliert, jedoch gibt es länderspezifisch verschiedene Strategien: Integration von im Land lebenden Migrant*innen in niedrig-qualifizierte Positionen in Schweden und Erwerbsimmi­gration von hoch qualifizierten Migrant*innen in Deutschland.
We Have Always Been Planetary

Published: September 2022

This essay shows how a new materialist theory of the Earth side-steps the distinction between the global and the planetary that structures Chakrabarty’s historiography. It advocates for a non-binary-generating approach to our planetary situation grounded in the philosophy of motion.
Lead time prediction for sheeter machine production in a paper conversion industry

Published: September 2022

Lead time is a critical performance measure in any manufacturing setting Key Performance Indicator (KPI). The same is true in the paper conversion industry, which has a significant degree of product variability. Due to the great variety of their products, all industries must be able to foresee and plan ahead in order to meet client demand. With contemporary research concentrating on machine learning and simulation techniques, businesses must implement a manufacturing execution system (MES) to track data. However, without such a framework, applying machine learning and simulation approaches becomes difficult. This study introduces a novel method for forecasting lead time (special to sheeter machines used in the paper conversion sector) by combining the time required to process the reel (sheeting time) with the human (setup) elements. The method used to calculate the sheeting time takes product parameters into account, allowing for product-specific lead time forecast. As a result, a very successful 'product-specific' lead time prediction approach for small scale enterprises has been developed that enables production planning without relying on current and data-intensive prediction methods such as machine learning and simulation.

Aiming at the problem that the disturbance factors affect the smooth development of berth hoisting, a hoisting planning architecture based on digital twin is proposed. The berth hoisting sequence planning model and its implementation technology are studied. The model includes three parts: the digital space for formulating the hoisting scheme, the physical space for executing the block hoisting, and the information interaction between the two parts. This paper discusses the berth hoisting planning method based on digital twin, constructs the information exchange platform of digital space and physical space, develops the berth hoisting information exchange platform based on digital twin, and simulates the block hoisting planning by using DELMIA software. An example is given to simulate the operation of the hoisting planning platform. The results show that the work of this paper has a certain reference significance to solve the influence of disturbance factors on berth hoisting sequence planning.

Quando escrever é mover: por uma (des)educação performativa na escrita acadêmica
Authors: Guedes Adrianne Ogêda , Rosa Carolina Cony Dariano da , Bemvenuto Virna da Silva , Bemvenuto Vitória da Silva
Published: September 2022

Este relato de experiência refletiu sobre a construção de práticas de produção acadêmica contra hegemônicas no bojo das vivências de pesquisa em uma Universidade Pública. Ancoradas no corpo e nas subjetividades de quem escreve e lê como pressuposto para uma escrita estesiada, analisou-se experiências ancoradas no conceito de escrita performativa, relacionando-o à convocação de presença no corpo pela linguagem artística da performance a produzir (in)disciplinas para uma (des)educação. Pela ampliação da noção de escrita, tomando-a como experiência articulada a outras materialidades artísticas que possam operar de modo performativo, o texto moveu-se em busca do que pode vir a ser uma escrita acadêmica.
Trilogia Sul Invertido: a criação de textos teatrais a partir de olhares do sul do Rio Grande do Sul
Authors: Fernandes Fernanda Vieira , Pereira Junior Mario Celso
Published: September 2022

Este artigo discorre sobre o ponto de partida para a criação dos textos teatrais da Trilogia Sul Invertido: a região sul do estado do Rio Grande do Sul. Através da observação das três peças e de suas respectivas gêneses, apresenta-se a forma como este pano de fundo aparece nas obras. A coletânea, escrita por Ingrid Duarte, Mario Celso e Thalles Echeverry, docentes egressos da Universidade Federal de Pelotas, foi lançada durante a pandemia da COVID-19, com recursos advindos da Lei Federal n.º 14.017 (Lei Aldir Blanc). O trabalho reflete ainda sobre a virada do olhar para além da capital, voltando-se a cidades localizadas fora do eixo metropolitano, e demonstra a importância da criação de espaços de formação e fomento à escrita teatral, em especial para novos autores.
Antes que o céu volte a cair: o teatro latinofuturista imagina outros futuros?
Authors: Silva André Felipe Costa
Published: September 2022

O presente artigo reúne uma série de reflexões e fabulações que indagam os imaginários de futuro que circundam o nosso presente, como o “cancelamento do futuro”, o Antropoceno e movimentos de contrafuturismo, colocando-as em diálogo com as práticas artísticas e teatrais latino-americanas contemporâneas. Também articula possíveis temporalidades latino-americanas a partir de uma combinação de teorias que incluem o pensamento ch’ixi elaborado por Silvia Rivera Cusicanqui e os perspectivismos ameríndios (Eduardo Viveiros de Castro, Déborah Danowski, Davi Kopenawa). Por fim, apresenta um exercício especulativo a partir da ideia de Latinofuturismo e analisa brevemente algumas práticas teatrais contemporâneas sob essa moldura.
Atrizes no teatro amador de São Luís na primeira metade do século XX
Authors: Martins Gilberto , Martins Benedita Afonso
Published: September 2022

Objetivou-se com este artigo evidenciar nomes e perfis de atrizes do teatro amador de São Luís do começo do século XX. Essa temática se amparou na ausência de registros de nomes de mulheres nas sociedades dramáticas da cidade entre os anos de 1901 e 1919, observada na imprensa local. Contrário ao contexto anterior a 1920, a partir de então há uma difusão, nos jornais locais, de nomes de atrizes amadoras. Quem e quais eram os perfis cênicos das atrizes que desafiaram os dogmas sociais e se destacaram nos palcos do teatro amador de São Luís no começo do século XX? Esses nomes perdidos na história do teatro de São Luís foram arrolados a partir da pesquisa documental centrada nos jornais da época; uma vez que há um hiato neste tema até então. O caráter introdutório deste registro se coaduna à problemática macro verificada em diversos campos do conhecimento que tentam recuperar uma memória ou uma imagem suplantada na História por interesses de gênero e perspectivas morais.
