Published: November 2022

Abstract: Who would have guessed that the Covid-19 pandemic would become a prolonged global problem and no one knows when it will end. The impacts experienced in every aspect, including the education aspect, resulted in major changes. The Indonesian government's efforts to ensure that students get a proper education are distance learning. PJJ is conducted online using hardware devices such as mobile phones or laptops, as well as using the internet network. The world of education welcomes this PJJ program, but as time goes on it turns out that this PJJ has a negative impact on students, namely the emergence of Loss Learning as a result of dropping out of school, decreasing learning achievement and acts of violence perpetrated by parents of students. This topic will discuss PAK learning strategies with learning methods that have concepts in tune with the teachings of Jesus Christ as the Great Teacher, namely the concept of the lecture method, the concept of the question and answers method, the concept of exemplary, the concept of problem solving and the concept of demonstration. It is hoped that it can help educators to minimize the Loss Learning.Abstrak: Siapa yang menduga pandemi Covid-19 menjadi masalah global yang berkepanjangan dan tidak ada yang mengetahui kapan akan berakhir. Dampak-dampak yang di alami di setiap aspek termasuk aspek pendidikan mengakibatkan perubahan yang besar. Usaha pemerintah Indonesia agar peserta didik mendapatkan pendidikan yang layak maka diadakanlah Pembelajaran Jarak Jauh. PJJ dilakukan secara daring dengan menggunakan perangkat lunak seperti telepon genggam atau laptop, dan jaringan internet. Dunia pendidikan menyambut gembira dengan program PJJ ini, akan tetapi ketika waktu terus berjalan ternyata PJJ ini memiliki dampak negatif terhadap peserta didik yaitu timbulnya Loss Learning akibat dari putus sekolah, menurunnya pencapaian pembelajaran serta tindakan kekerasan yang dilakukan orang tua peserta didik. Topik ini akan membahas tentang strategi pembelajaran PAK dengan metode pembelajaran yang memiliki konsep-konsep seirama ajaran Yesus Kristus sebagai Guru Besar Agung yaitu konsep metode ceramah, konsep metode tanya jawab, konsep keteladanan, konsep problem solving dan konsep demonstrasi. Diharapkan dapat membantu para pendidik untuk meminimaliskan Loss Learning tersebut.

Published: November 2022

Objectives This study aimed at characterizing medical students’ sleep and life quality during the COVID-19 pandemic in São Paulo (SP) state.

Material and Methods All public higher education institutions (HEIs) of SP state were invited to participate. From a list of 56 private HEIs, 16 were randomly selected. The web survey collected: sociodemographic data; factors related to COVID-19; sleep self-assessment; scores in the Epworth sleepiness scale, Pittsburgh sleep quality index, and student and resident life in the health area - questionnaire.

Results The HEIs’ acceptance rate was 25% (8), resulting in 200 participants (response rate 5.04%), aged ≥18 years, 60.5% females. Concerning COVID-19, 89.00% never showed symptoms and/or tested positive, 82.00% declared full adherence to epidemiological measures to prevent the infection’s spread, and 45.00% completed the vaccination schedule against SARS-CoV-2. Sleep deprivation was accompanied by a drop of self-perceived sleep quality from 8 to 6 (in a Likert scale) during COVID-19 pandemics (p≤0.0001), 76.50% were poor sleepers, and 40.00% had drowsiness, especially women (p≤0.05). They also had lower quality of life and unfavorable psychological and physical outcomes than men (p≤0.05). Internship students had a more negative perception of the educational environment (p≤0.05), characterized by an excessive workload.

Discussion Women and internship students are a representative fraction that requires special attention and focused strategies to cope with sleep problems and medical education during COVID-19 pandemics.

Published: November 2022

Sleeping and eating before and during an ultramarathon can directly affect an athlete’s performance, who may also have their physiological adaptations and recovery process hindered by sleeping problems. Endurance and ultra-endurance athletes may have different sleep and nutrition profiles. Thus, this study aimed to describe the sleep profile (during preparation) and nutritional profile (during competition) of endurance (10-20km) and ultra-endurance (50-100km) running athletes. For this, 16 healthy volunteers answered questionnaires related to sleep quality (Pittsburgh sleep quality index), chronotype (morningness-eveningness questionnaire), and sleepiness (excessive daytime sleepiness questionnaire). Immediately after a competition, a form prepared by the research team about nutritional variables and volunteers’ food records during the competition was applied. According to test scoring criteria (Pittsburgh sleep quality index >5; sleepiness >10), endurance running athletes showed low sleep quality. In addition, all athletes showed consumption of carbohydrates and lipids below the recommended, but excessive consumption of proteins. A positive association between sleepiness and sodium intake in endurance runners was observed (r=0.862; p=0.027). Sleep efficiency and race time showed a negative correlation only for ultra-endurance athletes (r=-0.834; p=0.039). The data obtained show that endurance athletes presented more sleep pattern alterations, however, endurance and ultra-endurance athletes showed inadequate nutritional consumption during the competition.
The Second Competition on Spatial Statistics for Large Datasets

Published: November 2022

In the last few decades, the size of spatial and spatio-temporal datasets in many research areas has rapidly increased with the development of data collection technologies. As a result, classical statistical methods in spatial statistics are facing computational challenges. For example, the kriging predictor in geostatistics becomes prohibitive on traditional hardware architectures for large datasets as it requires high computing power and memory footprint when dealing with large dense matrix operations. Over the years, various approximation methods have been proposed to address such computational issues, however, the community lacks a holistic process to assess their approximation efficiency. To provide a fair assessment, in 2021, we organized the first competition on spatial statistics for large datasets, generated by our ExaGeoStat software, and asked participants to report the results of estimation and prediction. Thanks to its widely acknowledged success and at the request of many participants, we organized the second competition in 2022 focusing on predictions for more complex spatial and spatio-temporal processes, including univariate nonstationary spatial processes, univariate stationary space-time processes, and bivariate stationary spatial processes. In this paper, we describe in detail the data generation procedure and make the valuable datasets publicly available for a wider adoption. Then, we review the submitted methods from fourteen teams worldwide, analyze the competition outcomes, and assess the performance of each team.
Kropsmodernismen genbesøgt
Authors: Theilgaard Ida , Skiveren Tobias
Published: November 2022

Danish literary histories often depict the 80ies as a period in which questions of corporeality moved to the foreground of the poetics of its poets. Dubbing this move »corporeal modernism« (»kropsmodernisme«), scholars have explained this new agenda as an attempt to reclaim stability in late modernity, an era in which all grand narratives have allegedly collapsed, and the world of new media increasingly fragments perceptions of reality. This article argues that such explanations fail to recognize that a significant amount of poetry from the 80ies does not view the body as the subject’s existential and ontological foundation, but perceives it, rather, as a fluctuating materiality that merges the human with a more-than-human world. The article takes Pia Tafdrup’s Intetfang (1982) and Henrik S. Holck’s Vi må være som alt (1978) as symptomatic examples of this trend and characterizes their more-than-human bodies as watery flesh and cosmological skin respectively. Ultimately, the aim of the article is to problematize established constructions of »corporeal modernism« and stake out some of the ways in which the literary history of Danish poetry in the 80ies could be re-written.
An assemblage of everyday technologies in the practice of western herbal medicine - a photo essay
Authors: Nissen Nina
Published: November 2022

Small, mundane technologies, such as stethoscopes, medicinal bottles, labels, cleaning and dispensing equipment, are integral to the practice of western herbal medicine (WHM) in the UK. A focus on such technologies reveals the dynamic character and porousness of medical systems and allows us to identify cultural interactions. In this photo essay, based on long-term anthropological research, I explore an assemblage of everyday technologies used by WHM practitioners and the ways in which these technologies contribute to shaping diagnostic stories, to performing (bio)medical legitimacy and invoking herbal traditions. The biomedical, herbal and domestic technologies-in-use come into view as vibrant and dynamic objects with highly contingent meanings and identities. Their absorption into this non-biomedical therapy supports the performance of (bio)medical legitimacy, authority, tradition and professionalism, while the use of everyday domestic objects may signal female-coded practices of care. This demonstrates the adaptability of a medical practice situated at the margin of mainstream healthcare and subject to ongoing technological and ideological influence. The strategic integration of this assemblage of everyday technologies into WHM contributes, I suggest, to evoking a competent, trustworthy and time-honoured medical practice, which is simultaneously inscribed with multiple tensions, ambiguities and contestations.
Educar a Pessoa
Authors: Sucupira da Costa Lins Maria Judith
Published: November 2022

É sabido que os Educadores precisam pensar sobre o significado da filosofia como base da sua prática diária para que obtenham resultados superiores. Considera-se aqui que a Educação deve ter a Pessoa como centro do processo. O problema principal em Educação é entender a Pessoa e essa foi a motivação para a discussão apresentada nesse artigo. A fundamentação teórica desse artigo está nas teorias de Dietrich von Hildebrand, Jacques Maritain e Alasdair MacIntyre. A hipótese é a necessidade que a educação seja organizada segundo a  natureza da Pessoa. O objetivo desse artigo é desenvolver argumentação para mostrar quão importante é prestar atenção à Pessoa quando existe o desejo de educar seres humanos. Seis tópicos foram selecionadas para serem discutidos. Estes são: Amor; Ética/Valores; Caráter; Consciência; Vontade e Liberdade. A abordagem metodológica é a hermenêutica de Paul Ricoeur porque esta permite ao autor explorar diferentes perspectivas e entender o que os filósofos e outros querem expressar. Filósofos e educadores questionam sobre Educação concernente à Pessoa como um ser humano real e concreto vivendo em um contexto social. Os tópicos dão oportunidade de compreensão dessa relação. É possível concluir que Educar a Pessoa é o meio para professores e todas as pessoas trabalhando com crianças e adolescentes de demonstrarem respeito ao ser humano.Palavras-chave: Pessoa; Educação; Filosofia; Ser Humano
Aprendizajes generados en una red de educación católica chilena desde la colaboración entre directivos escolares
Authors: Tatsch Edenilson , Fossatti Paulo
Published: November 2022

En Chile, en los ultimos años, se han implementado un conjunto de políticas educativas que fomentan la colaboración entre directivos e instituciones educativas públicas como factor clave para la mejora escolar. Pero existen pocos estudios que evidencian los aprendizajes que se han generado entre los actores de la red y que impactan en las diversas áreas de las comunidades educativas. Este estudio tuvo como objetivo identificar los aprendizajes que se han generado en una red de educación católica de Chile, que posee 7 centros educativos, por medio de las instancias de colaboración que realizan sus respectivos directivos escolares. Se realizó un estudio de casos con enfoque cualitativo recogiendo información a través de entrevistas individuales semi-estructuradas, grupos focales y observaciones de reuniones en terreno. Los resultados refuerzan la idea de que trabajar juntos contribuye en la creación, tanto de una cultura como de una comunidad de aprendizaje, potenciando el sentido de pertenencia de las personas con la institución. Se puede concluir que cuando se generan lazos de confianza entre los actores, se comparten experiencias y las mismas se tornan en aprendizajes explícitas, llegando a ser adoptadas como estrategias para facilitar el logro de las metas locales e institucionales y, lo que es más importante, generar conocimiento nuevo, específico al contexto.
cidade como foco de análise em pesquisas no campo do currículo
Authors: Da Silva Thiesen Juares , Jurema Ponce Branca
Published: November 2022

A finalidade do artigo é destacar a contribuição dos estudos curriculares no debate da relação entre currículo escolar e vida na cidade, tomando-se como pressupostos que os territórios da cidade educam, que seus espaços constituem currículos abertos a experiências, aprendizagens e desenvolvimento humano e que a formação pode se tornar mais ampla e significativa quando a escola passa a conceber a cidade como constituinte de seu currículo. O trabalho é resultado da produção de um estado do conhecimento sobre o referido tema, ancorado por uma discussão de fundo teórico. No texto, inicialmente apresentamos o resultado do estado do conhecimento, visando revelar o que já existe de produção científica no Brasil tratando da relação currículo e vida na cidade. Em seguida, caracterizamos brevemente nossa compreensão teórica sobre essa relação e, na última seção, com base nos indicativos das duas primeiras, apontamos possíveis lacunas e possibilidades de pesquisa como desafios para o campo dos estudos curriculares. Entre outros aspectos, o trabalho revela haver significativa produção científica relacionada com o tema, conduzida especialmente por áreas científicas e de conhecimento tais como a geografia, a arquitetura, a educação física, a história da educação, entre outras. A participação de pesquisadores filiados ao campo dos estudos curriculares tem sido baixa nessa produção, por isso a integração mais substantiva na relação currículo-cidade segue constituindo um grande desafio para a formação escolar.

Authors: Pasternak Glitz Kowalski Raquel , Hilu Luciane
Published: November 2022

Este trabalho apresenta um estudo de caso qualiquantitativo desenvolvido em instituição de ensino superior de grande porte no estado do Paraná, Brasil. Analisa a aplicação de uma proposta pedagógica que almeja o desenvolvimento de um projeto de design baseada em desafio de temática social como parte da investigação de um projeto internacional que tem como pressuposto os preceitos de Responsible Research and Innovation (RRI). A pesquisa objetivou a discussão sobre como as Tecnologias Digitais da Informação e Comunicação (TDIC) podem auxiliar na construção de habilidades de trânsito e aquisição de conhecimento na cibercultura de forma responsável, aberta e cidadã. O projeto internacional que forneceu subsídios para esta pesquisa foi financiado pela Comissão Europeia, uma iniciativa para promover habilidades para RRI por meio de Recursos Educacionais Abertos (REA). A pesquisa centrou-se nas atividades realizadas com estudantes de uma turma de 5º período do curso superior de Design Digital. A proposta pedagógica constitui-se em sete fases, sendo que ao final os resultados foram apresentados e discutidos de forma coletiva pelos estudantes. Também ocorreu uma autoavaliação dos alunos do processo formativo e da metodologia desenvolvida ao longo do semestre, por meio de questionário on-line. Os dados deste estudo incluíram estudantes coordenados por dois professores que participaram da experiência colaborativa de coprodução. Dos resultados obtidos, foi possível perceber que os estudantes entendem a importância da construção das habilidades levantadas, mas que ainda possuem dificuldades no exercício dos conceitos relativos à abertura de forma responsável.
Formação docente para e na Educação Profissional e Tecnológica
Authors: Das Chagas Silva Souza Francisco
Published: November 2022

Este artigo resultou de uma pesquisa cujo objetivo foi conhecer a produção acadêmica acerca da formação de professores para a Educação Profissional e Tecnológica (EPT) nas reuniões nacionais da Associação Nacional de Pós-Graduação e Pesquisa em Educação (Anped). Realizou-se um estado do conhecimento a partir dos trabalhos publicados nos anais dessas reuniões no período de 2010 a 2021, especificamente nos Grupos de Trabalho (GT) 8 e 9. Foram considerados, a princípio, os títulos e os resumos dos artigos apresentados nesses GT, e, tendo como critério de inclusão o tema central formação docente na EPT, foram selecionados 9 artigos para o estudo. A leitura e análise dos textos revelou uma diversidade de pesquisas voltadas para a formação e a prática docente na EPT, a saber: a docência nos cursos superiores de tecnologia, no Ensino Médio Integrado e na Educação de Jovens e Adultos integrada à EPT, a formação continuada de professores bacharéis, as licenciaturas nos Institutos Federais, dentre outros. Percebeu-se que, apesar dos avanços nas pesquisas sobre a formação de professores para a EPT, o baixo número de trabalhos apresentados nas reuniões da Anped, quando comparado ao total de trabalhos apresentados nos dois GT, indica que há um esquecimento desse tema, apesar da relevância desses encontros e da participação nestes de pesquisadores renomados na área.
Caminhos para a formação integrada por meio de princípios agregados à curricularização da extensão
Authors: Ilgenfritz Leandro Adriano , Caron Cambraia Adão , Elisabet Bazana Nonenmacher Sandra
Published: November 2022

O Plano Nacional de Educação (PNE) prevê a implementação de ações de extensão de no mínimo 10% do total da carga horária curricular estudantil, iniciando um movimento nacional de curricularização da extensão. A partir disto, este texto busca compreender como esse processo vem sendo proposto e implementado em um Campus do Instituto Federal Farroupilha, tendo como base as concepções de extensão, formação integral e currículo integrado constantes em seus documentos formais e projetos de extensão propostos. Sendo de natureza qualitativa, elaborada a partir de pesquisa bibliográfica e documental, busca e analisa dados empíricos, pela Análise Textual Discursiva de projetos e de entrevistas, organizadas de maneira semiestruturada, com coordenadores de projetos de extensão, selecionados no campus de Frederico Westphalen/RS. O processo de curricularização da extensão, tal como a materialização do currículo integrado, são processos que estão em construção, de maneira coletiva e paulatinamente, ambos têm contribuições mútuas, pois evidenciam e se balizam em preceitos comuns, conforme categorias explicitadas: interação dialógica; interdisciplinaridade, integração e interprofissionalidade; indissociabilidade entre ensino pesquisa e extensão e impacto e transformação social.
Formação, tecnologias e políticas públicas
Authors: Cassol Claudionei Vicente , Canan Silvia Regina , Vani Juliana
Published: November 2022

Pensar a formação tecnológica a partir da crítica sócio-filosófica com lastro teórico dialético e hermenêutico assentado em filósofos sociais contemporâneos – Bauman, Foucault, Beck, Sennett, Camin, Freire, entre outros – e clássicos – Rousseau e Bacon – amplamente reconhecidos, identificados às temáticas das políticas públicas e do poder, é movimento central desse ensaio. O debate analisa o uso comum e naturalizado para os termos políticas públicas, formação e tecnologia e os problematiza etimologicamente para ampliar as compreensões conceituais e suas imbricações com o poder. Para as políticas públicas discute-se a ação do Estado e sua constituição enquanto instituição do povo, de fundamento republicano, responsabilidade das três esferas de poder – executivo, legislativo e judiciário – corresponsáveis na gestão pública e na segurança da implementação e desenvolvimento das políticas. A formação tecnológica é compreendida como política pública de responsabilidade dos setores educacionais – universidades e escolas – que devem estar atentos para as guinadas constantes, voláteis e diluídas do mercado capitalista enquanto centralizador e manipulador de dados, informações, ideias e comportamentos e não deslindar para a lógica do treinamento. Formar com as tecnologias para o desenvolver da humanidade em cada indivíduo e da coletividade preocupada com a condição humana é central nesta tematização que alerta sobre o perigo de formar para a tecnologia com o sentido que lhe atribui o atual mercado consumista.

Criticalities of Executive Functions (EFs) research in Gambling Disorder: between the behavioural and neurophysiological markers
Authors: Balconi Michela , Angioletti Laura
Published: November 2022

The need to use different and heterogeneous approaches and methodologies to investigate the phenomenon of pathological Gambling Disorder (GD) arises from a substantial difference in the literature results emerging in this area. Furthermore, investigating the executive functioning (EFs) of subjects with GD provides important information that can influence the treatment setting of these populations. In the present paper the involvement of EFs in the present disorder was investigated. The cognitive functioning of subjects with GD was deepened, both through the study of the cerebral correlates of executive functioning in GD and through empirical studies that investigate the behavioural deficits of GD. Furthermore, we considered the role of some specific behavioral tasks (such as the Iowa Gambling Task, IGT) for the assessment of EFs. Finally, the relationship between EFs and some other crucial factors, such as reward sensitivity, were focused. Indeed, the behavioural aspects of GD are multiple, and they include not only traditional functions such as inhibitory control and reduced levels of self-control, but also high sensitivity to reward.
Study on neuropsychological and neurophysiological functions: acute effect of aerobic exercise training in sleep disturbed collegiates
Authors: Khan Zainab , Azharuddin Muhammad , Hussain M. Ejaz , Aseem Anam , Saif Ashi
Published: November 2022

This study aimed to investigate the acute effects of aerobic-exercise (AE) on neurophysiological-functions and neuropsychological-functions in sleep-disturbed collegiates. 32 eligible students were included in study. They completed 30 minutes of single bout of moderate AE (at 60–70% of maximal heart rate reserve). Pre and post training measures were tested for both, neurophysiological-functions by recording eventrelated- potential-P300 [P300-amplitude and P300-latency], and for neuropsychological-functions by administering neuropsychological-test-battery [Attention, Working-memory, Sensorimotor-speed and Executive-function (EF)]. In experimental group, statistically significant improvements were observed when analyzed for all 3 (group-by-time interaction, main-time, and main-group) effects in neurophysiological-functions. However, results were not significant for all neuropsychological-functions measures except for EF. Correlation-analysis demonstrated no association between neurophysiologicalfunctions and neuropsychological-functions except for post-intervention (p300-latency and attention). It is therefore can be concluded that acute bout of AE may be a promising approach to improve cognitivefunctions in sleep-disturbed collegiates, however long-lasting effects are still unclear.
ZASTOSOWANIE DYSKURSYWNYCH WYWIADÓW I HISTORII ŻYCIA (AUTOBIOGRAFII) W METODOLOGII BADAŃ RELIGIJNOŚCI SENIORALNEJ
Authors: Choczyński Marcin
Published: November 2022

Celem niniejszego tekstu jest rozwinięcie narzędzi badawczych znanych z klasycznych ustaleń metodologicznych Władysława Piwowarskiego (parametry religijności) i dopasowanie ich do jakościowych sposobów analizy. Zachodzi tu konieczność połączenia kilku perspektyw teoretyczno-metodologicznych. Biorąc pod uwagę szczególne cechy religijności senioralnej, implikacja właśnie takich rozwiązań badawczych pozwoli na pogłębienie i realne oddanie jej specyfiki. Uzględniono doświadczenie ludzi w podeszłym wieku i wpływ kontaminacji tego czasu na deklaracje wiary oraz określenie religijności własnej. Pojęcia wywiadu, sytuacji badawczej i koncepcji narracji autobiograficznych są silnie akcentowane w literaturze metodologicznej, zatem można pokusić się o wprowadzenie tych rozwiązań w przyszłych analizach i projektach badawczych.
Connected in Isolation
Authors: Hargittai Eszter
Published: November 2022

What life during lockdown reveals about digital inequality.

The vast majority of people in wealthy, highly connected, or digitally privileged societies may have crossed the digital divide, but being online does not mean that everyone is equally connected—and digital inequality reflects experience both online and off. In Connected in Isolation Eszter Hargittai looks at how this digital disparity played out during the unprecedented isolation imposed in the early days of the coronavirus pandemic.

During initial COVID-19 lockdowns the Internet, for many, became a lifeline, as everything from family get-togethers to doctor's visits moved online. Using survey data collected in April and May of 2020 in the United States, Italy, and Switzerland, Hargittai explores how people from varied backgrounds and differing skill levels were able to take advantage of digital media to find the crucial information they needed—to help loved ones, procure necessities, understand rules and risks. Her study reveals the extent to which long-standing social and digital inequalities played a critical role in this move toward computer-mediated communication—and were often exacerbated in the process. However, Hargittai notes, context matters: her findings reveal that some populations traditionally disadvantaged with technology, such as older people, actually did better than others, in part because of the continuing importance of traditional media, television in particular.

The pandemic has permanently shifted how reliant we are upon online information, and the implications of Hargittai's groundbreaking comparative research go far beyond the pandemic. Connected in Isolation informs and expands our understanding of digital media, including how they might mitigate or worsen existing social disparities; whom they empower or disenfranchise; and how we can identify and expand the skills people bring to them.
Open Access Monographs: Making Mandates Reality
Authors: Eve Martin Paul , Grady Tom
Published: November 2022

Watch the VIDEO.
In early 2022 the major research funding body in the UK (UKRI), released a policy statement mandating Open Access (OA) monographs, with an implementation date of January 1st, 2024. This date will see a shift from a hypothetical future for OA books to a concrete policy with a hard deadline. Add to this the forthcoming mandates on OA books from cOAlition S/Plan S in Europe, and potential implications of the next research impact evaluation (REF) in the UK, and it is clear that there is a pressing need for libraries and academic book publishers to understand how the sector will meet the challenges of implementing these policies. 
In this session we will present the following questions: what is the transition to open access for scholarly books going to look like? What pitfalls and opportunities will it bring? Who is at risk of being excluded? How do we get from where publishing and libraries are today, to making these policies a workable reality in 2024? 
We will also pose the crucial question: how will this transition be paid for? 
We’ll demonstrate how Book Processing Charges (BPCs) worsen inequality by favouring the most wealthy institutions and authors. And we’ll highlight some collective library funding models that seek to spread the funding of OA books so that no single institution bears a disproportionate cost. These models range from the large and well-funded like MIT’s Direct 2 Open and Michigan’s Fund to Mission, to the COPIM project’s own Opening the Future model which is aimed at smaller mission-driven publishers like CEU Press and Liverpool University press.
With the clock ticking on imminent policies, conversation is urgently needed on the practicalities of making mandates reality. We’ll discuss what libraries can do to meet the challenge, and how supporting programmes like Opening the Future will ensure that the transition to OA is a sustainable and bibliodiverse one. The transition to OA should not leave smaller and medium-sized presses behind; nor should it rely on paying BPCs, which risks excluding any author without funding; and the transition must be sustainable for libraries.
We will demonstrate that the time to support collective funding programme pilots is now, in order that they can transition from pilot to implementable policy, to the benefit of all: opening up research for the public good and building an open, global ‘collection’ that is shared by libraries in common, around the world.
Traducción de Pa pa pa 爸爸爸 en español. Estudio de la solución de los juegos de palabras chinos en español
Authors:   Departamento de Lenguas y Culturas Europeas , National Chengchi University, Ku Menghsuan
Published: November 2022

Pa pa pa es una novela china de los años ochenta, pertenece a “la literatura de la búsqueda de las raíces 尋根文學” de China y refleja una decadencia social y caótica sin posibilidad de recuperación. El autor Han Shaogong 韓少功 ha trasmitido sus ideas a través de un espacio imaginario y un lenguaje familiar con los juegos de palabras intercalados. Por ello, el objetivo del presente trabajo es estudiar qué mecanismos son usados en los juegos de palabras detectados, qué técnica de traducción ha sido aplicada y si las traducciones mantienen las mismas funciones. Para ello, nos basamos en las nociones de Delabastita (1996) y Hsu (2013) sobre las clasificaciones y definiciones de los juegos de palabras. En cuanto a los trabajos de contraste de lenguas, hemos consultado Marco (2010), Wang (2012) y Xu (2013). Aplicamos la técnica de traducción de Hurtado Albir (2013) como instrumento para analizarlos.
La gramaticalización del igual americano como reformulador y concesivo: ¿caso de réplica de lo mismo?
Authors:   Departamento de Filología Española, Facultat de Filologia, Traducció i Comunicació, Universitat de València, Llopis Cardona Ana Belén
Published: November 2022

Este trabajo pretende explicar las rutas de gramaticalización de igual (y lo mismo) como marcador reformulador y concesivo basándose en un macrocorpus de textos diacrónico y sincrónico. Se plantea tres objetivos: averiguar la posible interrelación de las evoluciones de igual y lo mismo en estas funciones, indagar en qué contextos previos asumió estas funciones y en qué zona se originó. El estudio de corpus revela que las evoluciones de ambas formas están relacionadas, pero el cambio de preferencia formal (lo mismo > igual) originó que la gramaticalización de lo mismo como conector se truncara y la de igual prosperara. La exploración de los contextos previos refleja la ligazón entre los valores reformulador y concesivo. El proceso se desarrolló en la zona rioplatense y de ahí se propagó al interior de Argentina y al español chileno, donde se convirtió en una forma popular.

Published: November 2022

This investigation was an attempt to capture the extent of local peoples’ perceptions regarding impact of long term climate change on agriculture and allied activities. The study was carried out in four randomly selected districts of Plain Zone of Chhattisgarh State. A total of 240 farmers from twenty four villages of eight blocks were considered as respondents. Data were collected through the personal interview using structured interview schedule prepared in Hindi and also group discussions were conducted among the farmers in each selected village to affirm the response in group about climate change. Based on the multiple responses, out of the total, 183 respondents were growing paddy in irrigated condition and 146 of them were growing paddy in un-irrigated condition. Out of total cultivated area (583.70 ha) paddy was cultivated in 47.56 per cent of area in irrigated condition and 47.28 per cent of area in un-irrigated condition. With regards to various varieties grown by respondents there was drastic change in 15 years, local varieties like Gurmatia, Mundaria, Kanthbhulaw, Nankeshar, Bhejri, Asamchudi etc. were grown by 86.25 per cent of the respondents 15 year back which has confined to only 1.67 per cent of the respondents with varieties like Gurmatia, Nankeshar, Asamchudi etc. Almost half of the respondents believed that due to climate change area of some crops like minor millets, sesame, pigeon pea, maize, jowar etc. in kharif and linseed, lathyrus, lentil etc. in rabi has decreased. Majority of respondents (86.30%) agreed, over the past 15 years migration of birds and animals has increased due to climate change, while, 82.92 per cent believed that climate change has increased drudgery of farmers/farm women. The results indicated that nearly 37 per cent of the respondents perceived medium level of overall impact of long term climate change, while, 34.17 and 29.17 per cent of the respondents reported high to low level of overall impact of long term climate change on agriculture and allied activities.

The present experiment was carried out to standardize drying methods for Rose (Rosa L.), Carnations (Dianthus caryophyllus L.), and Gerbera (Gerbera L.), and to assess the influence of the drying quality of the dried flowers to make various value-added products. Flowers of Rose, Carnation, and Gerbera Aster were subjected to five different drying methods viz., shade drying method without embedding medium (T1), with sand embedding (T2) and with silica gel embedding (T3), microwave oven drying with sand (T4) and silica gel embedding (T5). Data were statistically analyzed in Completely Randomized Design. The results indicated that in physiological parameters significantly maximum reduction of weight was observed in Rose (1.14g), Carnation (3.44g), and Gerbera (3.44g). Whereas significantly maximum flower perimeter reduction in Rose (11.14cm), Carnation (11.64cm), and Gerbera (18.17cm) was observed in the shade drying method. Maximum quality score regarding color, appearance, texture, and no shattering of dried flowers of Carnation (15.7) was recorded in microwave oven drying with silica gel as embedding medium, in Rose’s highest score (15.7) was observed in microwave oven with sand as embedding medium and in Gerbera (15.51) was given to microwave oven drying within silica gel embedding treatment while shade dried without embedded flowers showed minimum quality score in Rose, Carnation, and Gerbera (3.6, 1.5, 2.52) respectively. Best results were obtained with overall acceptability, quality of flowers, and flower preservation in Rose –treatment T3 (shade drying with silica gel as embedding medium), Carnation- treatment T5 (microwave oven drying with silica gel as embedding medium), Gerbera T4 (microwave oven drying with river sand as embedding medium).

Background: The RIPCORD 2 trial randomized patients undergoing coronary angiography to strategy of routine measurement of fractional flow reserve (FFR) in all vessels or to angiography alone.

Objectives: We compared, for the randomized groups, the catheter laboratory procedure costs to diagnosis.

Methods: This is a sub-study of the RIPCORD2 trial. We excluded patients with follow-on PCI to better reflect procedural costs of the diagnostic phase.  We compared resource utilization and, from this, derived an estimated procedure cost for UK practice.  We examined the association between cost and the number of vessels examined with pressure wire (PW) technology.

Results: We included 249/552 (45%) patients randomized to angiography and 261/548 (48%) patients to systematic FFR measurement.  The median (IQR) procedure cost was higher in the FFR group £1392 (1126 – 1686) versus £411 (308 – 586); P < 0.001. In the FFR group, 86.6% of procedures were completed with a single pressure wire; two and three PWs were used in 10.7% and 1.5% of cases respectively. The procedure duration (median, IQR; mins) was longer in the FFR group; 52 (39 – 66) versus 20 (15 – 30) as was the use of radiographic contrast (median, IQR; mls); 140 (110 – 189) versus 70 (60 – 94). In the FFR group, it seems that the additional cost was associated with the cost of the PW and laboratory set up for the performance of FFR measurement; the incremental cost of examining additional vessels, beyond the first, was modest.

Conclusion: The procedural cost associated with a strategy of systematic measurement of FFR in all vessels is higher than that of angiography alone.

The main objective of this research work is the comparison of the two Van Der Pauw four-point measurement configurations (aligned and square) commonly used to measure the resistivity of metal thin films which are widely used in the manufacture of planar components such as inductors, transformers, insulators, circulators, etc. Electrical characterization is very important because it ensures the quality of the metal supposed to conduct electrical current in the components mentioned above.

The resistivity measured by using the square or aligned configuration sometimes has significant differences. Making a comparative study therefore allow to know which gap between points, which frequencies to choose when measurements must be made by using square or aligned configuration.

In this paper, the measured thin films are made of copper which is broadly used in the structures because of its physical, chemical and mechanical properties [1]. The copper is deposited on alumina substrates by magnetron radiofrequency sputtering. Rectangular alumina substrates of dimensions 50mm x 20mm x 635μm were used. Thin film resistivity measurements using a four-point measurement method were performed by using HP 4284A LCRmeter in the frequency range of a few Hz to a few kHz. The comparison was made between the four-point aligned method and the four-point square method based on the frequency, the gap between points and the thin film thickness was made.

The results obtained by the study show that both configurations measure the same resistivity up to 1 kHz and then the increase of resistivity in aligned configuration limits its use beyond this frequency. The square configuration can still measure the same resistivity up to 40 kHz. The study also shows that the gap between points is limited to 3 μm in aligned configuration while the square configuration allows a gap up to 5 μm.
