In-Company Adaptation of Employees and Employers to Each Other
Authors: Mortikov V. V.
Published: December 2022

Adaptation of employees and employers to each other is very important for resolving many problems of labour economics and HR management. There are four types of response to discrepancy between opportunities and needs of labour relation entities: adjustment of workers to work-place requirements; changes in work-places on the part of employees; changes in work-places by employers necessary to comply with needs and qualification of workers; adaptation of employers to needs and qualities of workers. Adaptation of employers and employees to each other and changing work-places by them act, to a certain extent, as substitutes, which allow labour relation participants to interact effectively. Having faced restrictions by one of the four mentioned response to discrepancy between workers’ characteristics and work-places, the given participants turn to another response. The author using the experience of a university lecturer researches changes in work-place on the part of employees in the system of higher education. To analyze the potential of changing work-place characteristics the data of Risstat selective study was used. Factors showing specific features of adaptation of employees and employers to each other were identified and analyzed. Among them the author mentioned the situation on markets of finished products and labour, where the organization (employer) is involved, professional and personal qualities of worker, budget restrictions of labour relation entities, specific features of labour contracts and legislation.

Authors:   Universidad de Concepción, Navarro Saldaña Gracia , Flores-Oyarzo Gabriela ,   Universidad de Concepción, González Navarro María Gracia ,   Universidad de Concepción
Published: December 2022

Se ha estudiado la Inteligencia Emocional y su relación con diversas variables; entre estas el sexo, edad y capacidad intelectual, sin embargo, estos estudios son escasos en contexto chileno y latinoamericano, especialmente al considerar otras variables como es el tipo de establecimiento en que los estudiantes cursan estudios. Considerando la importancia de las habilidades socioafectivas y de la inteligencia emocional en aspectos como el rendimiento académico, satisfacción con la vida y el éxito personal, social y académico, entre otros, se busca comparar el nivel de autopercepción de la inteligencia emocional en escolares niños y jóvenes de la provincia de Concepción, Chile, es decir, estudiantes entre 11 y 18 años de edad. Participan 480 estudiantes de tres comunas de la Provincia. Los resultados de este estudio aportan información respecto de las diferencias entre hombres y mujeres, entre estudiantes con y sin alta capacidad, entre estudiantes de enseñanza básica y media, y diferencias por tipo de establecimiento educacional, permitiendo concluir que si bien estas no son estadísticamente significativas, son de gran relevancia para la generación de espacios educativos que aporten al desarrollo de las potencialidades de los estudiantes y la transformación de la dotación intelectual en talento académico.

Tránsitos hacia la educación estética. Análisis crítico de las categorías taxonómicas educativas en Chile
Authors:   Universidad Austral de Chile, Pérez González Patricio
Published: December 2022

La educación chilena actual se encuentra arraigada en una racionalidad moderna que la protege como sistema de conocimiento, este estudio pretende reconocer la importancia de fisurar esa estructura y establecer territorios de conocimiento sensible para una educación estética. Esta investigación cuestiona la incorporación implícita de habilidades sensibles en el currículo chileno, a través de una reflexión filosófica de la relevancia de la educación estética para la formación integral, apoyada en Friedrich Schiller y Friedrich Nietzsche, y de un análisis de la formulación de aprendizajes en las Bases Curriculares vigentes. El resultado esperado de este trabajo de investigación es proponer una nueva lectura de categorías taxonómicas asociadas a la sensibilidad y sugerir su inclusión explicita en el currículo chileno. La importancia de desarrollar una educación estética está dada por la necesidad de integrar diferentes saberes y expresiones del ser para crear comunidades conscientes de la alteridad.
Actitud lúdica y rol mediador de aprendizajes en educadoras de párvulos: para aprender jugando se necesitan dos
Authors:   Universidad Diego Portales, Figueroa-Céspedes Ignacio , Lambiasi Pérez Renata ,   Universidad Diego Portales, Cáceres Zapata Paulina ,   Universidad Diego Portales
Published: December 2022

El aprendizaje basado en el juego es ampliamente reconocido como una práctica fundamental para el desarrollo cognitivo y socioemocional de niños y niñas, especialmente, durante sus primeros años de trayectoria educativa. Sin embargo, la tensión entre juego y aprendizaje continúa vigente en cuanto al papel que cumple el adulto en los procesos de enseñanza y aprendizaje, lo que genera confusión entre las educadoras acerca de si incorporarse o no al juego, resultando difícil conciliar ambos mundos que tienden a visualizarse como opuestos. Este ensayo reflexivo tiene por objetivo analizar el rol docente como mediador del aprendizaje basado en el juego, estableciendo relaciones con una competencia pedagógica central para la pedagogía infantil como es la actitud lúdica (playfulness). Se argumenta, a partir de una revisión bibliográfica, que resulta esencial que las educadoras desarrollen una actitud favorable hacia el juego, que les permita generar condiciones lúdicas, evaluar las necesidades e intereses observados en los párvulos y decidir, si es necesario, involucrarse respetuosamente. De esta manera, se busca promover interacciones que propicien la alegría, diversión y creatividad, al tiempo que se favorece el desarrollo cognitivo integral y la expresión de la propia actitud lúdica de niños y niñas.
Análise comparativa entre colecistectomia aberta e videolaparoscópica nos últimos 5 anos no Rio de Janeiro
Authors: Vitor Hugo Vieira da Silva  , Da Silva Gaspar Maria Carolina , Fernandes Carvalho Juliana , Martins de Oliveira Maia Lucineide
Published: December 2022

A colecistectomia é a retirada da vesícula biliar. Esse procedimento é realizado em pacientes sintomáticos com alterações estruturais e funcionais de tal órgão. O objetivo desse estudo é comparar as duas técnicas utilizadas: cirurgia aberta e videolaparoscópica, analisando o número de internações, custos, média de permanência hospitalar e óbitos. De acordo com os resultados foram realizadas 52.001 colecistectomias no Rio de Janeiro nos últimos 5 anos, sendo 51,6% por vídeo e 48,4% via aberta. Dentre elas, 5.313 cirurgias abertas e 5408 fechadas foram realizadas em 2016. Nessa ordem, em 2017, performaram 5.392 e 5.552 cirurgias. Em 2018, 6.211 e 5.087 procedimentos. Em 2019, respectivamente, 6.380 e 5.774 colecistectomias. Em 2020, existiu um padrão atípico com 3.545 e 3.339 cirurgias abertas e fechadas. Os índices de mortalidade e número de óbitos são, respectivamente, 0,13% e 32 para cirurgia videolaparoscópica e 0,94% e 253 abertas. Os custos por procedimento foram de R$ 928,04 via aberta e R$ 849,50 por vídeo. O tempo médio de internação foi de 4,8 dias para cirurgia aberta e 3,8 para videolaparoscópica. O maior número do procedimento tradicional pode ser explicado pela precariedade do ensino da videolaparoscopia no Brasil, falta de verba e alta taxa de conversão para cirurgia aberta. Apesar disso, a cirurgia videolaparoscópica apresenta diversos benefícios como menores custo, tempo de permanência e taxas de complicações. O COVID-19 causou redução nas cirurgias eletivas em todo Brasil no ano de 2020. Sendo assim, é necessário estimular a realização de cirurgias por vídeo para melhor benefício aos pacientes.
A Temporin Derived Peptide Showing Antibacterial and Antibiofilm
Activities against Staphylococcus aureus
Authors: Wei Shuangshuang , Zhang Yingxia , An Meidi , Guo Ran , Xie Shenghong , Wang Jialu , Song Yanting , Wang Rong , Jiang Wenying
Published: December 2022

Background:

Temporin is one family of the shortest antimicrobial peptides found in Ranidae frogs. Staphylococcus aureus is one of the main pathogens of suppurative diseases and food contamination, causing severe local or systemic infections in humans. Temporin-GHa (GHa) was previously obtained from Hylarana guentheri, showing weak antibacterial activity against S. aureus. Most temporin peptides are positively charged by arginine and lysine; however, GHa contains histidine.

Objective:

In order to investigate the impact of positively charged amino acid on its antibacterial and antibiofilm activity, GHa4R was designed and synthesized by replacing histidine with arginine in GHa.

Method:

The antibacterial activity and efficacy against S. aureus were detected by minimum inhibitory concentration, minimum bactericidal concentration, and time-killing kinetics assays. The action mechanism was determined by propidium iodide uptake and scanning electron microscopy assays. The antibiofilm activity was measured by the MTT method. Eradication of biofilm was observed by fluorescence microscope.

Results:

Compared to GHa, GHa4R had stronger antibacterial activity and bactericidal efficacy against S. aureus. Impressively, GHa4R presented antibacterial activity against methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA). It was barely affected by temperature, pH, and storage period, showing high stability. Furthermore, it increased the permeability of the cell membrane and damaged the membrane integrity, leading to cell death. In addition, GHa4R did not induce antibiotic resistance in S. aureus in 30 days, but the MIC of vancomycin was doubled. It not only inhibited S. aureus biofilm formation but also eradicated 24 h-biofilms.

Conclusion:

The above-mentioned characteristics make GHa4R a promising candidate for the treatment of S. aureus infections.

Smith
Authors: Kumar Dinesh , Singla Rajeev Kumar , Sharma Rohit , Sharma Pooja , Kumar Lutesh , Kaur Navdeep , Dhawan Ravi Kumar , Sharma Shailesh , Dua Kamal
Published: December 2022

Background:

Colebrookea oppositifolia Smith. is a valuable traditional therapeutic plant belonging to the family Lamiaceae. It is a dense and wool-like shrub that is mostly found in sub-tropical regions of some countries of Asia, such as China and India. It has been widely used for the mitigation of nervous system disorders like epilepsy. The active constituents of the plant have ex-hibited antioxidant, anti-microbial, and antifungal properties, which are considered due to the presence of polyphenols and flavonoids as chief chemical constituents. Flavonoids like quercetin, landenein, chrysin, and 5, 6, 7-trimethoxy flavones cause protein denaturation of the microbial cell wall.

Objectives:

To comprehend and assemble the fragmented pieces of evidence presented on the tradi-tional uses, botany, phytochemistry, and pharmacology of the plant to reconnoiter its therapeutic perspective and forthcoming research opportunities.

Methods:

The available information on Colebrookea oppositifolia has been established by electron-ically searching peer-reviewed literature from PubMed, Google Scholar, Springer, Scopus, Web of Science, and Science Direct over the earlier few years.

Results:

The plant has been greatly used for the preparation of many herbal medicines which are used for treating traumatic injuries, fever, rheumatoid arthritis, headache, and gastric problems. From the aerial parts of the plant, a phenylethanoid glycoside named acteoside has been isolated and evaluated for its therapeutic potential viz. immunomodulatory, neuroprotective, hepatoprotec-tive, analgesic, anti-tumour, antispasmodic, antioxidant, antibacterial, free radical scavenger, and improving sexual function. Acteoside showed neuroprotective activities against Aβ-peptide, which is neurotoxic and causes apoptosis. The petroleum ether extract of the plant leaves offers many ac-tive compounds like sitosterol, n-triacontane, hydroxydotriacontyl ferulate, acetyl alcohol, and 3,7,4,2-tetramethoxyflavones which have shown hepatoprotective potential.

Conclusion:

The plant should be evaluated further for the estimation of some other health benefits. The consequences of restricted pharmacological screening and reported phytomolecules of Cole-brookea oppositifolia Smith. advocate that there is still an exigent requisite for in-depth pharmaco-logical studies of the plant.

Authors: Abu-Baker Nesrin N. , Ananzeh Tharaa , Al Modallal Hanan , Shahror Ghada M. , Amarneh Biaan B.
Published: December 2022

Background:

The prevalence of e-cigarette use among adolescents is on the rise worldwide and in the Arab region as well. Youth are amongst the different age groups who are mostly affected by this practice.

Objective:

The purpose of this study was to assess the knowledge and attitudes of Jordanian adolescent students toward e-cigarettes.

Methods:

A cross-sectional study was conducted using a convenience sample of 500 male school students. A self-reported questionnaire was distributed to the students electronically through social media platforms. T-test was used to identify differences in adolescents’ knowledge and attitudes based on their use and non-use of e-cigarettes.

Results and Discussion:

The results revealed that 35% of participants reported trying e-cigarettes and 43% reported trying tobacco cigarettes. The vast majority (97.2%) of the participants had heard about e-cigarettes, while 63% were not aware of their components. The majority of participants agreed that e-cigarette is dangerous (89.2%), is cleaner than tobacco smoking (55.6%), and that use of e-cigarettes can help to quit tobacco smoking (61.4%). Furthermore, the students who used tobacco and e-cigarettes had a significantly higher mean score of knowledge (p< .001) and a lower mean score of attitudes toward e-cigarettes (p< .001) than those who did not.

Conclusion:

there is still a need to increase accurate knowledge about e-cigarettes among youth, with special emphasis on adolescents. Health awareness campaigns about e-cigarettes, including their composition and side effects, are highly recommended.

Authors: Zulverdi Yudhika Ankenkuala Ramadhana , Martosudiro Mintarto , Choliq Fery Abdul
Published: December 2022

Shallot Yellow Stripe Virus (SYSV) is one of the economically important viruses of shallot. The incidence of SYSV infection can reach 66%-100%. The high level of SYSV infection on shallot is also due to the lack of resistance varieties to SYSV. This study aimed to determine the resistance of five varieties of shallot and the effect of SYSV infection on shallot production. The study used a completely randomized experimental design (CRD) using five shallot varieties as the treatment with four replication for each treatment. The shallot varieties were Bauji, Thailand, Bima Brebes, Tuk tuk (V4), Trisula (V5), and control. Each experimental unit consisted of 10 plants. The evaluation results showed that the Tuk-tuk variety was categorized as resistant, the Trisula variety as tolerant, and the Bauji, Thailand, and Bima Brebes varieties were categorized as susceptible. The shallot growth and production indicate that SYSV infection causes interference in the plant development process.

Labour law in a changing world
Authors: Ter Haar Beryl
Published: December 2022

The world around us is changing rapidly due to digitalisation, robotisation, the green transition, growing scarcity of resources, and an increasingly individualised society at large. Many of these issues profoundly affect the world of work. Not surprisingly, a lot of attention is paid to each of these changes in the field of labour law and many others. In some fields, like socio-economics, new theories are proposed to deal with these changes. Like Kate Raworth's Doughnut Economics and Mariana Muzzucato's Mission Economics. Anticipating the paradigm shifts these theories will create, prof. Beryl ter Haar's research will re-think, re-imagine, and re-shape labour law. As such her research will reconsider the basic values, purposes and functions of labour law, including established institutions such as the employment contract, the need for social security and social benefits and trade unionism. This is important since understanding where we are heading towards, will ensure the coherence and consistency of our labour law systems, enable us to make the transition, and find more sustainable labour law solutions for nowaday labour law problems.
ΕἷΣ jako paradygmat szczególnej relacji z Bogiem i ze wspólnotą w Ef 4,1-6
Authors:   Cardinal Stefan Wyszynski University in Warsaw, Sztuk Dariusz
Published: December 2022

A distinguishing feature of Paul’s style is his use of short formulas and compounds, which, through their simplicity and appropriate juxtaposition, convey the entire theological complexity of the truths of faith and are a point of reference for Christians of all times. Among such places in Paul’s epistolary is Ephesians 4:1-6, in which, through the use of succinctly formulated articles of faith given in an appropriate rhetorical setting, the Apostle charts before believers the pattern of their relationship with God and with the community with a particular fondness for using the numeral “unum” as a distinguishing feature of the said relationships. This article is an attempt to describe the distinguishing features of St. Paul’s style in the analyzed passage of the Epistle to the Ephesians.
Digital Platform Uses for Help and Support Seeking of Parents With Children Affected by Disabilities: Scoping Review
Authors: Gruebner Oliver , van Haasteren Afua , Hug Anna , Elayan Suzanne , Sykora Martin , Albanese Emiliano , Naslund John , Wolf Markus , Fadda Marta , von Rhein Michael
Published: December 2022

Background

Receiving a diagnosis that leads to severe disability in childhood can cause a traumatic experience with long-lasting emotional stress for patients and family members. In recent decades, emerging digital technologies have transformed how patients or caregivers of persons with disabilities manage their health conditions. As a result, information (eg, on treatment and resources) has become widely available to patients and their families. Parents and other caregivers can use digital platforms such as websites or social media to derive social support, usually from other patients and caregivers who share their lived experiences, challenges, and successes on these platforms. However, gaps remain in our understanding of platforms that are most frequently used or preferred among parents and caregivers of children with disabilities. In particular, it is not clear what factors primarily drive or discourage engagement with these digital tools and what the main ethical considerations are in relation to these tools.

Objective

We aimed to (1) identify prominent digital platforms used by parents or caregivers of children with disabilities; (2) explore the theoretical contexts and reasons for digital platform use, as well as the experiences made with using these platforms reported in the included studies; and (3) identify any privacy and ethical concerns emerging in the available literature in relation to the use of these platforms.

Methods

We conducted a scoping review of 5 academic databases of English-language articles published within the last 10 years for diseases with childhood onset disability and self-help or parent/caregiver-led digital platforms.

Results

We identified 17 papers in which digital platforms used by parents of affected children predominantly included social media elements but also search engines, health-related apps, and medical websites. Information retrieval and social support were the main reasons for their utilization. Nearly all studies were exploratory and applied either quantitative, qualitative, or mixed methods. The main ethical concerns for digital platform users included hampered access due to language barriers, privacy issues, and perceived suboptimal advice (eg, due to missing empathy of medical professionals). Older and non–college-educated individuals and ethnic minorities appeared less likely to access information online.

Conclusions

This review showed that limited scientifically sound knowledge exists on digital platform use and needs in the context of disabling conditions in children, as the evidence consists mostly of exploratory studies. We could highlight that affected families seek information and support from digital platforms, as health care systems seem to be insufficient for satisfying knowledge and support needs through traditional channels.

Authors: Moradian Saeed , Maguire Roma , Liu Geoffrey , Krzyzanowska Monika K , Butler Marcus , Cheung Chantal , Signorile Marisa , Gregorio Nancy , Ghasemi Shiva , Howell Doris
Published: December 2022

Background

Major advances in different cancer treatment modalities have been made, and people are now living longer with cancer. However, patients with cancer experience a range of physical and psychological symptoms during and beyond cancer treatment. New models of care are needed to combat this rising challenge. A growing body of evidence supports the effectiveness of eHealth interventions in the delivery of supportive care to people living with the complexities of chronic health conditions. However, reviews on the effects of eHealth interventions are scarce in the field of cancer-supportive care, particularly for interventions with the aim of empowering patients to manage cancer treatment–related symptoms. For this reason, this protocol has been developed to guide a systematic review and meta-analysis to assess the effectiveness of eHealth interventions for supporting patients with cancer in managing cancer-related symptoms.

Objective

This systematic review with meta-analysis is conducted with the aim of identifying eHealth-based self-management intervention studies for adult patients with cancer and evaluating the efficacy of eHealth-based self-management tools and platforms in order to synthesize the empirical evidence on self-management and patient activation through eHealth.

Methods

A systematic review with meta-analysis and methodological critique of randomized controlled trials is conducted following Cochrane Collaboration methods. Multiple data sources are used to identify all potential research sources for inclusion in the systematic review: (1) electronic databases such as MEDLINE, (2) forward reference searching, and (3) gray literature. The PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) guidelines for conducting the review were followed. The PICOS (Population, Interventions, Comparators, Outcomes, and Study Design) framework is used to identify relevant studies.

Results

The literature search yielded 10,202 publications. The title and abstract screening were completed in May 2022. Data will be summarized, and if possible, meta-analyses will be performed. It is expected to finalize this review by Winter 2023.

Conclusions

The results of this systematic review will provide the latest data on leveraging eHealth interventions and offering effective and sustainable eHealth care, both of which have the potential to improve quality and efficiency in cancer-related symptoms.

Designing Mindfulness Conversational Agents for People With Early-Stage Dementia and Their Caregivers: Thematic Analysis of Expert and User Perspectives
Authors: Seah Cassandra E L , Zhang Zheyuan , Sun Sijin , Wiskerke Esther , Daniels Sarah , Porat Talya , Calvo Rafael A
Published: December 2022

Background

The number of people with dementia is expected to grow worldwide. Among the ways to support both persons with early-stage dementia and their caregivers (dyads), researchers are studying mindfulness interventions. However, few studies have explored technology-enhanced mindfulness interventions for dyads and the needs of persons with dementia and their caregivers.

Objective

The main aim of this study was to elicit essential needs from people with dementia, their caregivers, dementia experts, and mindfulness experts to identify themes that can be used in the design of mindfulness conversational agents for dyads.

Methods

Semistructured interviews were conducted with 5 dementia experts, 5 mindfulness experts, 5 people with early-stage dementia, and 5 dementia caregivers. Interviews were transcribed and coded on NVivo (QSR International) before themes were identified through a bottom-up inductive approach.

Results

The results revealed that dyadic mindfulness is preferred and that implementation formats such as conversational agents have potential. A total of 5 common themes were also identified from expert and user feedback, which should be used to design mindfulness conversational agents for persons with dementia and their caregivers. The 5 themes included enhancing accessibility, cultivating positivity, providing simplified tangible and thought-based activities, encouraging a mindful mindset shift, and enhancing relationships.

Conclusions

In essence, this research concluded with 5 themes that mindfulness conversational agents could be designed based on to meet the needs of persons with dementia and their caregivers.
Online Help-Seeking Among Youth Victims of Sexual Violence Before and During COVID-19 (2016-2021): Analysis of Hotline Use Trends (Preprint)
Authors: Goodman Kimberly L , Kamke Kristyn , Mullin Tara M
Published: December 2022

BACKGROUND

Three years since the onset of COVID-19, pandemic-related trends in child sexual abuse (CSA) remain poorly understood. Common administrative surveillance metrics may have underestimated abuse during the pandemic, given youths’ limited access to mandatory reporters. Research using anonymous service-use data showed increased violence-related online help-seeking but overlooked youth-specific help-seeking for CSA during COVID-19. Understanding pandemic-related trends in CSA can inform abuse detection practices and mental health service provision for youth victims.

OBJECTIVE

The purpose of this study was to harness anonymous help-seeking data from the National Sexual Assault Online Hotline (NSAOH) to glean insights about CSA occurrence in the United States during the COVID-19 pandemic.

METHODS

We used an archival sample of victims who contacted NSAOH from 2016 to 2021 (n=41,561). We examined differences in the proportion of youth and adult victims contacting NSAOH during the first COVID-19 year (March 2020 to February 2021) compared to the prior year (March 2019 to February 2020; n=11,719). Further, we compared key characteristics of hotline interactions among youth victims during the first COVID-19 year to the prior year (n=5913). Using joinpoint regression analysis, we examined linear trends in the number of monthly sampled youth and adult victims (excluding victims of unknown age) from 2016 to 2021 who discussed any victimization event (n=26,904) and who discussed recent events (ie, events occurring during the pandemic; n=9932).

RESULTS

Most youth victims were abused by family members prior to (1013/1677, 60.4%) and after (2658/3661, 72.6%) the onset of COVID-19. The number of youth victims contacting NSAOH spiked in March 2020 and peaked in November 2020 for all youth (slope=28.2, 95% CI 18.7-37.7) and those discussing recent events (slope=17.4, 95% CI 11.1-23.6). We observed a decline in youth victims into spring 2021 for all youth (slope=–56.9, 95% CI –91.4 to –22.3) and those discussing recent events (slope=–33.7, 95% 47.3 to -20.0). The number of adult victims discussing any victimization event increased steadily from January 2018 through May 2021 (slope=3.6; 95% CI 2.9-4.2) and then declined (slope=–13.8, 95% CI –22.8 to –4.7). Trends were stable for adults discussing recent events.

CONCLUSIONS

This study extends the use of hotline data to understand the implications of the pandemic on CSA. We observed increased youth help-seeking through the NSAOH coinciding with the onset of COVID-19. Trends persisted when limiting analyses to recent victimization events, suggesting increased help-seeking reflected increased CSA during COVID-19. These findings underscore the utility of anonymous online services for youth currently experiencing abuse. Further, the findings support calls for increased youth mental health services and efforts to incorporate online chat into youth-targeted services.
Understanding What Drives Long-term Engagement in Digital Mental Health Interventions: Secondary Causal Analysis of the Relationship Between Social Networking and Therapy Engagement (Preprint)
Authors: O'Sullivan Shaunagh , van Berkel Niels , Kostakos Vassilis , Schmaal Lianne , D'Alfonso Simon , Valentine Lee , Bendall Sarah , Nelson Barnaby , Gleeson John F , Alvarez-Jimenez Mario
Published: December 2022

BACKGROUND

Low engagement rates with digital mental health interventions are a major challenge in the field. Multicomponent digital interventions aim to improve engagement by adding components such as social networks. Although social networks may be engaging, they may not be sufficient to improve clinical outcomes or lead users to engage with key therapeutic components. Therefore, we need to understand what components drive engagement with digital mental health interventions overall and what drives engagement with key therapeutic components.

OBJECTIVE

Horyzons was an 18-month digital mental health intervention for young people recovering from first-episode psychosis, incorporating therapeutic content and a private social network. However, it is unclear whether use of the social network leads to subsequent use of therapeutic content or vice versa. This study aimed to determine the causal relationship between the social networking and therapeutic components of Horyzons.

METHODS

Participants comprised 82 young people (16-27 years) recovering from first-episode psychosis. Multiple convergent cross mapping was used to test causality, as a secondary analysis of the Horyzons intervention. Multiple convergent cross mapping tested the direction of the relationship between each pair of social and therapeutic system usage variables on Horyzons, using longitudinal usage data.

RESULTS

Results indicated that the social networking aspects of Horyzons were most engaging. Posting on the social network drove engagement with all therapeutic components (r=0.06-0.36). Reacting to social network posts drove engagement with all therapeutic components (r=0.39-0.65). Commenting on social network posts drove engagement with most therapeutic components (r=0.11-0.18). Liking social network posts drove engagement with most therapeutic components (r=0.09-0.17). However, starting a therapy pathway led to commenting on social network posts (r=0.05) and liking social network posts (r=0.06), and completing a therapy action led to commenting on social network posts (r=0.14) and liking social network posts (r=0.15).

CONCLUSIONS

The online social network was a key driver of long-term engagement with the Horyzons intervention and fostered engagement with key therapeutic components and ingredients of the intervention. Online social networks can be further leveraged to engage young people with therapeutic content to ensure treatment effects are maintained and to create virtuous cycles between all intervention components to maintain engagement.

Online Abuse dan Narasi Hypermasculinity dalam Kasus Perubahan Identitas Gender Aprilio Perkasa Manganang
Authors: Alyatalatthaf Muhammad Dicka Ma'arief
Published: December 2022

This study aims to determine the forms of Online Abuse and Hypermasculinity narratives that occur in Aprilio Perkasa Manganang’s gender identity change case. Online abuse comments are found on @kumparan and @ manganang92 Instagram account. The Hypermasculinity narrative is also found in the text of the video uploaded by @kumparan and some comments on the two accounts. The Online Abuse Wheel concept of Women's Media Center Speech Project is used to see forms of online abuse. The Hypermasculinity narrative is seen based on traditional masculinity stereotypes through gender roles and sex roles. This research uses Teun A. van Dijk's model of Critical Discourse Analysis methods. The result found that online abuse behavior as a whole, belongs to gender-based bullying category, while the Hypermasculinity narrative in the comments and video text uploaded by @kumparan can polarize the discourse of ‘real men’ and ‘feminine men’.
Activismo académico feminista. Paradojas y dilemas
Authors:   CIEG-UNAM, Belausteguigoitia Rius María Isabel , Ytza Páez Nictexa ,   CIEG-UNAM
Published: December 2022

En este texto se reflexiona sobre el significado del activismo estudiantil feminista durante la toma de la Facultad de Filosofía y Letras de la unam; para esto, se propone una ruta singular: un análisis que parte de las pintas que las Mujeres Organizadas de la Facultad de Filosofía y Letras (moffyl) dejaron en las instalaciones al terminar la toma. Hay una preocupación por releer las inscripciones en estos muros, ya que la forma y el fondo que adquirió el activismo de las moffyl generó derivas profundas y complejas que abren un valioso espacio de análisis. Por esta razón, las autoras se plantean las siguientes preguntas: ¿De qué formas productivas puede la academia acompañar el activismo feminista estudiantil? ¿Cómo leer las dimensiones contradictorias y paradójicas de la protesta? ¿A qué dilemas se enfrenta el activismo feminista en escenarios académicos? ¿Qué contrasentidos se encuentran en los muros que alojaron la protesta feminista estudiantil?
Debate Feminista ahora
Authors:   CIEG-UNAM, Moreno Esparza Hortensia Manuela , Ortega Garay Paola Gabriela ,   CIEG-UNAM
Published: December 2022

En este ensayo, las autoras presentan un recuento de las etapas y procesos por las que la revista Debate Feminista ha transitado desde que en 2016 dejó de ser una publicación independiente para convertirse en una revista académica universitaria. En sus páginas se exponen los múltiples retos que la publicación tuvo que enfrentar, siendo el más desafiante ajustarse al modelo neoliberal de estándares dictados por el establishment científico, con las contradicciones que esto implica para quienes quieren conservar y fomentar las prácticas editoriales feministas.
En los anales* de la historia estaba la esfínter
Authors: Sentamans Gómez Tatiana , García Muriana Carmen , Higón Cardete Beatriz
Published: December 2022

Las autoras parten de su desafección con el relato hegemónico, una pugna que mantienen con la forma en la que se han contado las cosas, una fascinación indignada con la omisión y la demonización de ciertas figuras en la que se han sentido reflejadas. Esto les ha hecho confrontar esa imagen espejada de las “crónicas” dominantes en la que no se reconocen. Para ello, ponen sus deseos e imaginarios en el centro, y utilizan a su propia antagonista —La Historia— en un sentido material y visual: sus herramientas, su lenguaje, y la mise-en-scène que la construye y la instituye. El objetivo es encarnar relatos anteriores a ellas que fueron o podrían haber sido, y que las llevan a conectarse con genealogías tentaculares que se extienden en diferentes direcciones y unen formas disidentes de ser y de estar.
PAINTING GRAPHS WITH SOUNDS: COSMONIC SONIFICATION PROJECT
Authors: García-Benito R. , Pérez-Montero E.
Published: December 2022

CosMonic (COSmos harMONIC) is a sonification project with a triple purpose: analysis (by means of sounds) of any type of data, source of inspiration for artistic creations, and pedagogical and dissemination purposes. In this contribution we present the work recently produced by CosMonic in the latter field, creating specific cases for the inclusive astronomy dissemination project Astroaccesible for blind and partially sighted people, but also aimed at a general public that wants to understand astrophysics in an alternative format. For this project, CosMonic seeks to create simple astronomical cases in their acoustic dimension in order to be easily understood. CosMonic's philosophy for these sonifications can be summarized in a simple metaphor: painting graphs with sounds. Sonification is a powerful tool that helps to enhance visual information. Therefore, CosMonic accompanies its audios with animations, using complementary methods to reach a general public. In addition to providing some cases created by CosMonic for inclusive astronomy, we also share our experience with different audiences, as well as suggest some ideas for a better use of sonification in (global) inclusive outreach.
ASTRONOMY WITHOUT BORDERS: PLANETARIO ACCESIBLE
Authors: Cacace G. , Pereyra A.
Published: December 2022

The Buenos Aires Planetarium is a benchmark in the dissemination of astronomy and science. For the Planetarium, the axis passes through the visitors, the most important heritage. Thinking about the different audiences helps to understand the different needs of each one of them and their particularities. We always work in outreach with diversity in mind. In recent years, we have incorporated inclusion as a transversal axis of all our activities. This forces us to be flexible as an institution, with the capacity for permanent changes and adjustments. We are aware that accessibility does not only go through the adaptations that are made in the spaces, so that all people can make use of them with the guarantee of their free mobility, but also through the actions that accompany and promote insertion in the field of astronomy. The Accessible Planetarium grew notably, as we permanently added new programs. In addition to the traditional activities such as the Planetarium for blind and low vision people, the Planetarium for deaf and hard of hearing people, we incorporate Easy Reading, tactile sensory material, haptic plans, accessibility elements in social networks and the web. What gives us great satisfaction is the relaxed function, a novel and unprecedented program in planetariums for people with Autism Spectrum Condition (CEA). For children, we especially offer the Blue Planetarium: One of Pirates, a show adapted as a relaxed function. All this work would not be possible without the advice of the different organizations with experience in the different disabilities. But it also requires the commitment of all Planetarium personnel, and that is why we permanently train ourselves to fulfill a better role in society. From our Planetarium we encourage full participation and promote an Astronomy without borders.
ONLINE ASTRONOMY FOR BVI PEOPLE
Authors: Labbé Waghorn E.
Published: December 2022

The "Astronomía inclusiva" (inclusive astronomy) group is made up of 110 people from more than 20 scientific institutions and different areas of knowledge, with and without disabilities, who have been collaborating on different initiatives to make science more accessible. The pandemic presented us with the challenge of bringing astronomy directly to the homes of Blind and Visually Impaired (BVI) people, leaving out previously prepared tactile models. Invited by the Central Library for the Blind bibliociegos of Chile, we held an Inclusive Online Astronomy Workshop, using sounds, materials that people can find in their homes, and detailed descriptions of how to manipulate them. In 13 sessions held by 10 institutions and personal projects from Chile and Mexico, various topics were addressed, such as celestial movements, constellations, star and planet formation, observatories, asteroids and dinosaurs, among others. In this work we presented the main lessons learned from the experience, the reception of which by those attending the workshop was excellent, allowing us to strengthen ties with the community of BVI people, and motivating us to continue with a second season, which is currently in preparation.
ACCESSIBLE ASTRONOMY: HOW TO ADAPT ACTIVITIES FOR BLIND AND VISUALLY IMPAIRED LEARNERS USING LOW COST MATERIALS
Authors: Grice N.
Published: December 2022

In the past, astronomy was considered to be primarily a visual subject. But times have changed, and the field of astronomy education has evolved to include other senses such as sight, sound and touch. Multisensory themes and methods of instruction have attracted new audiences to learn about topics in STEM. In this paper, I share my experiences in developing adaptations of activities for the Big Astronomy Outreach Toolkit. I begin by exploring examples and strategies of how inexpensive materials can be used to modify or sometimes expand upon activities through universal design, with the goal of reducing or eliminating barriers to participation.
