Authors: Paz Bautista Juan Carlos , Suárez Lugo Nery
Published: October 2017

Objetivos • Describir la población diabética según variables seleccionadas e identificar la satisfacción y percepción de la calidad de la atención recibida en los servicios de salud.
Material y Método • Estudio observacional, transversal, descriptivo, de pacientes diabéticos usuarios de los Servicios de Salud de Hidalgo, México, en el primer nivel de atención, de marzo a junio del año 2005. Se seleccionó una muestra aleatoria con asignación proporcional. Se encuestaron 1882 pacientes en las 13 jurisdicciones sanitarias del estado. El dato primario se obtuvo con un cuestionario validado, aplicado por personal especializado previamente capacitado. Se solicitó el consentimiento de participación y se entregó información para contribuir al manejo adecuado de la enfermedad. Resultados • Los pacientes se sienten mayoritariamente satisfechos con la atención, reciben los medicamentos prescritos, se realizan las anotaciones en su historia clínica y se orienta el manejo de su enfermedad. Se observa que no se realizan la cantidad de visitas programadas, son insuficientes los exámenes de laboratorio que se indican, la exploración de pies y fondo de ojo no es el establecido por la normativa mexicana y es bajo el reconocimiento de signos de gravedad por los pacientes, que tampoco asisten regularmente a los grupos de ayuda mutua. Conclusiones • Se dispone de información para reorientar los servicios de atención al paciente diabético en el estado, considerando las particularidades de cada una de las jurisdicciones y se requiere de mayor control del proceder médico acorde a lo establecido, así como estrategias de comunicación que faciliten la comprensión del manejo adecuado de la enfermedad.
Sostenible: Exigencias para un enfoque formativo práctico
Authors: McArthur John W. , Sachs Jeffrey D.
Published: October 2017

Los desafíos interconectados del desarrollo sostenible, desde la pobreza extrema, el control de enfermedades y la vulnerabilidad de los ecosistemas, sólo pueden ser resueltos mediante el efecto multiplicador del conocimiento y las habilidades propias de una variedad de disciplinas. Un progreso significativo requiere de políticas prácticas, bien gestionadas, y de programas que incorporen conocimientos de las ciencias de la salud, las ciencias naturales y las ciencias sociales. Estos desafíos complejos exigen enfoques integrados, interdisciplinarios, guiados y gestionados por profesionales cualificados. Por desgracia, las disciplinas de formación multidisciplinar y resolución de problemas siguen siendo raras, con muy pocas conexiones a través de las comunidades de expertos, en particular entre las ciencias naturales y las ciencias sociales. Las disciplinas individuales tienden a valorar la especialización hacia el interior en lugar de la resolución de problemas hacia el exterior. Esto dificulta que los profesionales tengan las aptitudes necesarias para llevar a cabo la gestión de políticas transversales o la resolución de problemas complejos.

In this study, we attempted to verify the hypothesis that total metals bound to dust of different particle sizes may reflect pollution levels, but cannot predict its bioavailability and risks in human health assessments. Dust samples were collected using active sampling method; during the dry season months of November, 2014 to March, 2015 at different locations in Akure (7˚10ʹN and 5˚15ʹE). The samples were sorted into different particle sizes (< 10µm, 10 – 50 µm, >50µm), analyzed for some physicochemical properties and assessed for metals bioavailability using two-step physiological extraction method. The amount of metals (Cd, Cu, Cr, Ni, Pb, Zn and Mn) released in each particle sizes were determined using Perkin-Elmer 6000 Inductively Coupled Plasma - Atomic Emission Spectrometry (ICP-AES) analysis. The results showed that bioavailability of some metals (Cd, Ni, Pb, and Zn) decreases with increasing particle sizes, however, the reverse trend was observed for Mn, Cu and Fe concentrations. This may be attributed to some combination of physicochemical characteristics of the dust and metal speciation. Hence, it was concluded that metal bioaccessibility in dust can best be described by the knowledge of physicochemical characteristics. The exposure dose of the metals showed that cancer risks due to inhalation were very high when compared to other exposure routes (ingestion and dermal contact). The calculated non-cancer (HQ) and cancer risk (HI) for humans in the area showed values higher than unity, indicating possibility of the metals’ body burden.

Published: October 2017

This case report describes evidence of intratubular biomineralization in root canal filled with calcium enriched material after 8 years of clinical maintenance. The schematic findings of dentinal tubules were investigated with scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS). The root canal obturation material was closely adapted to root dentin surface, suggesting the possibility of chemical bonding between the two interfaces. SEM and EDS observation of dentinal tubules showed intratubular biomineralized crystal structures with Ca/P ratio in a range of 1.30–2.12, suggesting bioactive capacity of calcium enriched cement.
Trends in Computer-Aided Diagnosis Using Deep Learning Techniques: A Review of Recent Studies on Algorithm Development
Authors: Edwards Bosede Iyiade , Khougali Nosiba Hisham Osman , Cheok Adrian David
Published: October 2017

With recent focus on deep neural network architectures for development of algorithms for computer-aided diagnosis (CAD), we provide a review of studies within the last 3 years (2015-2017) reported in selected top journals and conferences. 29 studies that met our inclusion criteria were reviewed to identify trends in this field and to inform future development. Studies have focused mostly on cancer-related diseases within internal medicine while diseases within gender-/age-focused fields like gynaecology/pediatrics have not received much focus. All reviewed studies employed image datasets, mostly sourced from publicly available databases (55.2%) and few based on data from human subjects (31%) and non-medical datasets (13.8%), while CNN architecture was employed in most (70%) of the studies. Confirmation of the effect of data manipulation on quality of output and adoption of multi-class rather than binary classification also require more focus. Future studies should leverage collaborations with medical experts to aid future with actual clinical testing with reporting based on some generally applicable index to enable comparison. Our next steps on plans for CAD development for osteoarthritis (OA), with plans to consider multi-class classification and comparison across deep learning approaches and unsupervised architectures were also highlighted.
Sex Role Identity, Communication Skills, and Group Popularity
Authors: Ivan Loredana
Published: October 2017

Using two groups of undergraduate students (N = 71) the present paper argues about the importance of sex role identity (Bem, 1981) as a potential predictor of group popularity. The results show that participants with psychological androgine identity tend to use better their communication skills and become popular among their peers. Contray to previous studies (e.g. Hall, 1984; Saarni, 1999) focused on gender gap in communication skills, the current study emphasis on the importance of the sex role identity (Bem, 1974, 1975) in undestanding the relation between communication skills and likeability.
Age-friendly Advertising: A Qualitative Research on the Romanian Silver Consumers
Authors: Duduciuc Alina
Published: October 2017

As consumption has become a major aspect that characterizes the life of people currently aged 55 and older, fervent public and academic debates have been raised around the accurate portrayal of seniors in advertising. While most of the previous quantitative and qualitative research highlighted the inappropriate ways of representing elders and the unsuitable framing of advertising claims, little research has been done so far to understand which are seniors’ expectations regarding their portrayal in current advertising campaigns. Based on in-depth interviews with Romanian adults of the 55+ generation, this paper investigates how seniors understand ageing with respect to the manner in which they have been depicted in nowadays advertising and what are the detailed features of the offensive or inoffensive advertising campaigns targeting them. The findings revealed that participants that lost their status during ageing favor the use of chronological rather than cognitive images of their age. Additionally, the running of the natural surroundings in advertising were found as empowering for both the young and the older adults of our research.
Review of 'Temporal Love. Temporality and Romantic Relationships' by Mira Moshe, New York, Nova Science Publishers, 2016
Authors: Buturoiu Raluca
Published: October 2017

Moshe’s book entitled Temporal Love. Temporality and Romantic Relationships deals with a classical but fashionable part of sociological studies, namely the sociology of emotions. As the third in a series dealing with this challenging topic, the book is a valid proof for Moshe’s interest in how emotions develop and influence various aspects of people’s lives. In an era which “enables us to perceive different time dimensions simultaneously” (p. vii), the author aims at addressing the role of time in shaping both people’s ideas about romantic relationships and the relationships themselves.

Published: October 2017

Objectives. To determine the effectiveness of a universal school-based depression education program.

Methods. In 2012–2015, we matched 6679 students from 66 secondary schools into pairs by state (Maryland, Delaware, Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Oklahoma) and randomized to the Adolescent Depression Awareness Program (ADAP; n = 3681) or to a waitlist control condition (n = 2998). Trained teachers delivered ADAP as part of the health education curriculum to students aged 14 to 15 years. The primary outcome was depression literacy. Secondary outcomes included mental health stigma and, in a subset of the sample, the receipt of mental health services. Follow-up was at 4 months.

Results. ADAP resulted in significantly higher levels of depression literacy among participating students than did waitlist controls, after adjusting for pretest assessment depression literacy (P < .001). Overall, ADAP did not significantly affect stigma (P = .1). After ADAP, students approached 46% of teachers with concerns about themselves or others. Of students who reported the need for depression treatment, 44% received treatment within 4 months of ADAP implementation.

Conclusions. ADAP is an effective public health intervention for improving depression literacy among students.

Authors: Kang A. Min , Brooks Daniel E.
Published: October 2017

Objectives. To determine the geographic distribution of scorpion envenomations in the United States by zip code, with particular attention to the neurotoxic Centruroides sculpturatus (Arizona bark scorpion), for which an antivenom is available.

Methods. We obtained scorpion exposure cases for 2010 to 2015 from the National Poison Data System. Using geographic information systems software, we mapped total exposures and incidence rates for 9 states that reported more than 100 annual calls. We also mapped cases that reported fasciculations and nystagmus (unique to C. sculpturatus among native scorpions).

Results. The highest exposure incidences occurred in Phoenix (up to 677 per 100 000 population) and Tucson (584), both in Arizona. Elsewhere, high incidences were found in El Paso, Texas (213); Oklahoma City (209) and Tulsa (178), Oklahoma; and Las Vegas, Nevada (170). Fasciculations and nystagmus were reported in Arizona and southeastern Nevada, with small numbers in surrounding states, including Utah.

Conclusions. Scorpion exposures occurred at baseline rates throughout many of the southern states, whereas several states reported effects indicative of Arizona bark scorpion envenomation.

Public Health Implications. Public and health care provider education, as well as the stocking of antivenom, should be targeted based on these findings.
Islamic-Content-TED Public Speaking as a Source Material for Improving Islamic Student’s Communication Skill
Authors: Kusuma Lyla Anggerwina
Published: October 2017

In applying communicative competence that became the utmost teaching method in teaching English program, the lecturers found the fact that the Islamic communication students are apparently reluctant to speak and communicate their ideas confidently. It happens because they thought that they do not know what they are going to say and how they are going to say their ideas. By knowing these problems the lecturers then tried to analyze the sequences of Islamic-content-TED and integrate those public speaking sequences from TED talks to STID Al-Hadid’s students to give an understanding and also to improve the confidence and quality in delivering public speaking speech for the sophomore students who are majoring Islamic Communication & Broadcasting. For further, in order to master this skill, students are also expected to find noble ideas to be shared in their personal public speaking. This action research study then found out that having sharing the sequences of TED talks, the student’s public speaking productions are more organized and powerful moreover; the fluency and also the student’s accuracy of the students could be controlled well.

In the process of cooling or refrigeration, are required components where capable to flow the fluid to create a cycle of the cooling process. Among some of the vapor compression systems, the usage of ejector is the simplest system. Ejector has three main parts: primary nozzle, mixing chamber and diffuser. Various experiments of steam ejectors developed to increase the value of the COP. Entrainment ratio directly affects to the COP value generated by the system, where the geometric shapes and operating conditions in the steam ejector will affect to the value entrainment ratio. This research was carried out numerical simulations using CFD commercial software with k-epsilon to predict flow phenomena which passes through the ejector nozzle in the ejector converging-diverging which varying exit diameters 3.5 mm; 4mm; 5 mm; and 5.5 mm. Respectively the simulation results showed exit nozzle steam ejector that the smallest diameter of 3.5 mm give the optimum performance because it provide the highest speed of fluidity. While the state of vacuum in mixing chamber increase, it cause the secondary mass flow higher as well as the value of the entrainment ratio.

Published: October 2017

Improvement of mechanical feature in metals are necessary for industrial development. In industries, it requires the mechanical features, such as frictional strength and good wear resistance. Carburizing is a heat treatment process that produces toughness surface in the presence of carbon-bearing material. The carburizing process of JIS G-3123 steel was performed by Pack Carburizing method with divergent variation of activated carbon weigh(s) 125 grams, 250 grams, and 400 grams and selected holding time in range of 30 minutes, 45 minutes, and 60 minutes. In the result, it was obtained 463.550 kg / mm2 for the highest value of toughness with the weight of 400 gr activated carbon and holding time of 30 minutes. Therefore, it indicated that the higher weight of activated carbon in the carburizing process, the material hardness value will be higher as well, with the lowest holding time.
Inefficiency of pension investment regulation: case of Russia
Authors: Nepp Alexander
Published: October 2017

Inflation risks are one of the major factors faced by funded pension systems. Investment risks affect such key parameters of pension systems as the amount of pension contributions and payments. In order to limit the exposure of pension systems to such risks, governments have introduced instrumental and geographical restrictions on pension investments. These measures are particularly popular in developing countries. This article discusses the efficiency of pension investment regulation in Russia and demonstrates the inadequacy of the current regulatory measures. Authors show that the negative investment results of pension market players were caused by inefficient government regulation. Authors also show that pension market players should be given more freedom in their investments and that instrumental and geographical restrictions should be removed. Was proposed to diversify investment portfolios into stocks traded on the leading stock markets, which would allow to increase investment returns and maintain the risk at the current level. Thus, it would be reasonable to invest 76% of funds into foreign assets, which will increase pension benefits and the replacement rate by 2.54 times. If we keep the geographical barriers but lift the restrictions on equity investments, the growth will be 1.34 times.
Kreativitás és köznevelés
Authors: Bereczki Enikő Orsolya
Published: October 2017

Az elmúlt 20 évben a kreativitás nevelésben és oktatásban betöltött szerepe jelentős mértékben felértékelődött. Világszerte számos ország a diákok kreativitásának fejlesztésében látja a gazdasági versenyképesség növekedésének, valamint a társadalmi és egyéni jólét megteremtésének esélyét. A kreativitás iskolai fejlesztésnek sikeressége tantervi tényezők függvénye is. A tanulmányban bemutatott kutatás célja a 2012-es Nemzeti alaptanterv (Nat) által közvetített kreativitás-felfogás feltárása és annak kritikai elemzése volt tartalomelemzés módszerével. A tartalomelemzés alapját a kreativitás explicit megnevezéséhez kapcsolódó kulcsszavak megjelenésének helye, gyakorisága és szemantikai kontextusa képezte. A kutatás eredményei rávilágítottak arra, hogy bár a kreativitás a Nat visszatérő eleme, azonban az eltérő arányokban és mélységekben jelenik meg a közös célokban, a különböző műveltségterületeken és képzési szakaszokban. A kreativitást a Nat minden műveltségi terület és képzési szakasz számára releváns kereszttantervi fejlesztési területként nevezi meg. A kreativitás a leggyakrabban a Művészetek területen jelenik meg, négy műveltségterület pedig egyáltalán nem nevezi meg a kreativitást (Ember és társadalom, Ember és természet, Földünk és környezetünk és Idegen nyelvek). A Nat-ban a kreativitás nem kerül meghatározásra és csak néhány műveltségterület segíti annak értelmezését. A Művészetek és Matematika műveltségi területeken külön fejlesztési feladatok támogatják a kreativitás kibontakozását. Megállapítható, hogy a tantervben egy világosabb, belső ellentmondásoktól mentes, következetes kreativitásmegközelítésre van szükség.
Tabuk és bizalom szerepe az iskolai erőszak szempontjából
Authors: Dóczi-Vámos Gabriella
Published: October 2017

A tanulmányban egy budapesti szakközép- és szakiskolában végzett esettanulmány részeredményét mutatjuk be, az iskolai erőszak vonatkozásában jelenlévő tabukat és a tanulók felnőttek iránti bizalmát. E két témában főként nemzetközi szakirodalomra tudtunk támaszkodni, melyek arra mutatnak, hogy az iskola szereplőinek egymásba vetett bizalma alapja lehet a bántalmazással kapcsolatos jelzőrendszer eredményesebb működésének. A kérdőíves vizsgálatra, interjúra, fókuszcsoportos beszélgetésre és dokumentumelemzésre épült kutatással kiderült, hogy a vizsgált iskolában nincs összefüggés a különféle erőszakos viselkedéstípusok előfordulási gyakoriságának érzékelése és a között, hogy jeleznek-e a tanulók egy felnőttnek, ha tudomásukra jut, hogy valaki bántalmazás, zaklatás áldozatává válik, viszont az őszinte és nyílt légkör segíti a bizalom kialakulását, ami pedig összefüggést mutat az iskolában dolgozó felnőtteknek adott jelzésekkel. Az is látszik, hogy az osztályfőnöknek kulcsszerepe van ebben. A mikrokörnyezet különböző nézőpontokból történő vizsgálata lehetőséget adott olyan mélyebb összefüggések megismerése, amelyek tudatosítása az iskola szereplőiben befolyással lehet az adott iskolában megjelenő erőszak visszaszorítására és akár hosszú távú megelőzésére.
A hazai pedagógia szaksajtó-kutatás történetéhez: a Pedagógiai Szemle genezise
Authors: Pénzes Dávid
Published: October 2017

Az utóbbi bő évtizedben intenzív kutatások kezdődtek meg a hazai nevelésügy 1945-öt követő időszakáról. És bár ez a korszak időben közel van, mégsem akadályozta az ebből fakadó személyes érintettség a kutatásokat. A kutatók változatos témák iránt érdeklődve, változatos kutatásmódszertant választva próbálják meg nemcsak feltárni, hanem megérteni a korszak személyi mozgásait és intézményi változásait. Mivel az 1948-at követő időszakban – a szó legszorosabb értelmében – radikális változások történtek (nemcsak a hazai oktatásügy területén), még ma is elmondható, hogy ismereteink bővítésre szorulnak, annak ellenére, hogy már számtalan kérdésben sikerült körvonalazni, rekonstruálni az eseményeket. Jelen munkámmal én is egy „fehér folt” megvilágítását tűztem ki célul: az ötvenes évek hazai sajtóátalakulásának részeként megalakult Pedagógiai Szemle – mely ma már Új Pedagógiai Szemle címmel jelenik meg – genezisének vázlatos megrajzolásával.
Munka- és élet-értékváltozások iskolaelhagyók körében
Authors: Csehné Papp Imola
Published: October 2017

A tanulmány azt a célt szolgálja, hogy alapot nyújtson egy lemorzsolódást jelző rendszernek a kidolgozásához. A bemutatott vizsgálat rész – mely egy komplex kutatás egyik komponense csupán – célja, hogy feltárja az is – kolai lemorzsolódás és az újratanulás időszakára jellemző értékváltozásokat és hangulatingadozásokat. A vizsgálatok középpontjában olyan fiatalok álltak, akik bár elszenvedték és átélték az általános iskolai vagy szakképzésből történő lemorzsolódást, újra képesek voltak iskolapadba ülni, és felzárkóztató képzésen (OKJ vagy TÁMOP) részt venni, mely által a munkaerőpiacon felhasználható képzettséget szerezhettek. A vizsgálat újdonsága, hogy kevés az arra vonatkozó hazai és nemzetközi szakirodalom, amely az iskola félbe hagyása és az újra tanulás közötti időszakot elemzi. A felmérések három különböző megyében készültek, 58 fővel. A vizsgálatban személyes beszélgetést, az Oerter-féle értékkört és a Borgen-Amundson hullámvasút modell mintájára készített, tanuláshoz kapcsolódó érzelmi görbét alkalmaztuk az egyének életútjának megismerésére és az iskolához fűződő érzelmeik változásának feltárására. A hipotézis – mely szerint a lemorzsolódottak érzelmi dinamikája a munkanélküliség hullámvasút görbéjéhez hasonlóan leírható és vizsgálható; többségénél a tanulás helyébe a munka lép az újratanulásig, ugyanakkor az újbóli tanuláskor a szerepeik módosulásával értékrend változás tapasztalható – megerősítést nyert.

Fogyatékossággal élő személyek munkaerőpiaci (re)integrációjának aktuális kérdései a felnőtképzés területén – I. rész
Authors: Hangya Dóra
Published: October 2017

2012. január 1-jétől jelentősen átalakult a megváltozott munkaképességű emberek támogatási rendszere Magyarországon. Az ezzel szinkronban hozott kormányzati intézkedések azt mutatják, hogy a foglalkoztatási célkitűzések között kiemelt szerepe van a megváltozott munkaképességű személyek foglalkoztatása elősegítésének. A megváltozott rendszer kapcsán kiemelt partnerekként kezelendőek a felnőttképzési intézmények, hiszen az új szakmai ismeretek elsajátításában, a meglévők frissítésében, az át- és továbbképzésben, a készségek és kompetenciák fejlesztésében hangsúlyos feladatuk van (Szellő, 2006; Hangya, 2013; Laki, 2013), azonban a felnőttképzéshez való hozzáférés egyenlőtlenségeket mutat (ÁJBH 2012; Hangya, 2012). Tanulmányomban bemutatom, hogy a különböző jogszabályok és rendeletek által biztosított integrált és egyenlő eséllyel történő képzésben való részvétel lehetősége mindenki számára nyitva áll, de inkább egy elvi lehetőség marad és a valódi részvétel már nagyban függ a képzést nyújtó intézmény szemléletétől. Megfelelően felkészült szakemberekkel és a módszertan fejlesztésével javítani lehet a célcsoport információhoz, képzésekhez és szolgáltatásokhoz történő hozzáférését, mely segíti kompetenciáik, készségeik fejlődését, munkaerő-piaci (re)integrációjuk esélyeit, valamint életminőségük pozitív irányú változását.

Technological development in automotive industry and transformation in corporate governance system
Authors: Shimizu Kazuyuki
Published: October 2017

This study aims to understand how governance change is triggered by cybernetics issues, such as the development of automotive navigation systems in German, Japanese and US automotive industry. Six points are discussed for the central question which are 1) GDP Trends for Manufacturing Activities, 2) Organizational Structure for Supply Chain Management (SCM), 3) Viewpoint related to Internet of Things (IoT) usability, 4) National IoT planning, 5) Definition of IoT, 6) Developing Navigation Systems. At first, the trend in manufacturing activity reveals two different trends: a downward trend in Japan and the USA, and a stable trend in Germany. We see several possible reasons for this difference; first, the “smiling curve concept” is applied to visualize the difference. And the organizational structure of SCM is concerned such as “Keiretsu” in Japan, “Konzern” in Germany and the “Anglo-American” model. Then, this paper addresses how the unique organizational features of SCM might react to the technological developments in the automotive industry such as autonomous driving, which has shaken the core of the industry. For this gradual change, the IoT technology is necessary. IoT means the progress of certain embedded system, which adds a network function into it. The embedded system for automobile orientation on a map (hardware and software) has to be upgraded with the network function. These technological developments could influence their corporate governance system. Then, the discussion matrix is formed for the six points, which are discussed in this paper and reveal the boundaries between Japan, Germany and the US. According to Beer, the societary maps (the cybernetic maps) are required for this structural progress to find the right way to go. Finally, we think a dynamic industrial movement is ensured by keeping fair competition, which ensures diversity as well as technological development. It could be the last resort to protect our “Designing Freedom”.

China（Shanghai）Pilot Free Trade Zone (“SHFTZ”) as well as other Pilot Free Trade Zones established in China carries on the mission to make the test for, inter alia, China’s strategic financial reforms and for Renminbi(“RMB”) internationalization in particular. However, the financial reforms in SHFTZ according to its design and relevant provisions can only provide very limited rather than fully effective test for the reforms of free convertibility, international capital transactions as well as risk hedging needed by RMB internationalization. The aim of the paper is to investigate the test effect that SHFTZ have on the above capital account reforms. It argues that the main reason for the test failure lies in “outward free and inward control” mode designed for SHFTZ which makes it an insulated customs territory, a situation which differs from the circumstances in which a currency gets internationalized. Moreover, SHFTZ runs the risk of evolving into an offshore RMB market set up inside China, a trend China should prevent because it cannot serve the testing missions mentioned above.
HASA: Half The Average Scheduling Algorithm
Authors: Elhafiz Afaf Abd Elkader Abd
Published: October 2017

The process of assigning independent tasks to resources with the aim of optimizing some objective functions is known as scheduling. The efficient scheduling of independent tasks to improve the performance of a system is an important problem. Several algorithms are developed to schedule tasks on their resources to minimize the makespan. One of these algorithms is ACTA (Average of Completion Times Algorithm). This paper proposes an algorithm HASA (Half the Average Scheduling Algorithm) that ameliorates the makespan produced by ACTA. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm gives makespan smaller than ACTA.

Por entre Caixas de Memória: A constituição do acervo do Núcleo de Educação, Memória e Cultura-NEPEC
Authors: Ribeiro Angelita Soares , Pereira Fabíola Mattos , Da Silva Leandro Rodrigues , Nunes Patricia Pires
Published: October 2017

O texto que aqui apresentamos coloca-se como uma tentativa de contar acerca da constituição do Núcleo de Extensão e Pesquisa em Educação, Memória e Cultura (NEPEC) a partir do processo de salvaguarda do  antigo“arquivo morto” do Campus Pelotas Visconde da Graça (CaVG) do Instituto Federal de Educação, Ciência e Tecnologia Sul-Rio-grandense (IFSul). Para isso elegemos uma imagem: as “caixas de memória”, que, em abertura revelam seu material, para logo fecharem-se, anunciando e acenando como “alguma coisa”, um “mesmo assim”, que em memória sobrevive e tensiona os sentidos comuns e já estabelecidos acerca da constituição de um acervo.

Authors: Almeida Domingos Alves de
Published: October 2017

Este artigo tem por objetivo analisar a abordagem da imprensa brasileira sobre a reforma constitucional boliviana, a partir da cobertura do jornal Folha de S. Paulo, um dos maiores e mais influentes jornais brasileiros, tomando como recorte temporal os meses de janeiro e fevereiro de 2009, período em que a nova Constituição da Bolívia foi colocada para votação e aprovada em referendo nacional. Como suporte metodológico, recorremos à pesquisa bibliográfica, revisão de literatura e a Análise de Discurso (AD) de orientação francesa.  Como fundamentação teórica, adotamos a perspectiva epistêmica decolonial. E, no que concerne ao campo jornalístico, utilizamos os preceitos da Teoria Construcionista da notícia, com o intuito de refletir sobre a operacionalização das empresas de mídia na “fabricação” das notícias.

Authors: Tobón Olga , Rodríguez Victor
Published: October 2017

En el campo de la salud visual se utilizan una serie de equipos que ayudan al diagnóstico de la patología del paciente, pero actualmente no existe un método de calibración estandarizado para asegurar las mediciones que se realizan con estos dispositivos. El objetivo era estandarizar métodos de calibración para algunos de los equipos utilizados en el campo de la salud visual como son: queratómetros, lensómetros y tonómetros. Para la calibración de los tres tipos de equipos incluidos en este desarrollo, se utilizaron métodos de comparación directa de la indicación con la magnitud de los patrones utilizados que tenían trazabilidad con laboratorios nacionales e internacionales acreditados bajo la Norma NTC-ISO/IEC 17025:2005. Las mediciones realizadas por cada uno de los técnicos a los diferentes tipos de equipos en condiciones de repetibilidad y utilizando el método adoptado, se hicieron  estadísticamente con la herramienta Anova Simple de Statgraphics, arrojando resultados satisfactorios con un valor-P por encima de 0,05, igualmente se realizaron pruebas de exactitud, linealidad y robustez con resultados positivos. Los métodos adoptados fueron exitosamente validados y posteriormente estandarizados bajo la acreditación en la Norma NTC-ISO/ IEC 17025:2005.

Reassessing the Influence of Mental Intangibility on Consumer Decision-making
Authors: Rizomyliotis Ioannis , Konstantoulaki Kleopatra , Kostopoulos Giannis , Poulis Athanasios
Published: October 2017

This paper explores the influence of mental intangibility on the size of the consideration set, for both tangible products and services. The research also examines the moderating effect of purchase involvement and objective knowledge on the set. Two experimental studies were conducted to examine these relations. Overall, the results indicate that mental intangibility positively influences the size of the consideration set, regardless of the offering type (product or service). This effect is stronger in low levels of knowledge. Consumer involvement does not seem to have a moderating effect on this relation. The studies' implications and recommendations for future research are also discussed.
Medir el uso del espacio público urbano seguro
Authors: Cárdenas O’Byrne Sabina
Published: October 2017

El artículo aborda la medición del uso del espacio público como estrategia para mejorar la actitud frente a la seguridad, de tal manera que la seguridad no suponga una barrera para la revaloración de barrios. Para ello, se realizó una revisión bibliográfica en cuatro aspectos: la noción de barrio y el miedo como operador de la seguridad, la seguridad como agente de decisión para el uso del espacio, los mecanismos para medir espacio seguro, y las prácticas espaciales cotidianas. Esta revisión bibliográfica se pone en diálogo con una investigación denominada Ciudad Vital (Cárdenas, 2016), realizada en las ciudades colombianas de Palmira (2014) y Cali (2016). Se trata de generar alternativas para sumarse a las inquietudes de los autores consultados acerca de la medición del espacio público seguro y explorar una herramienta para el diseño urbano en términos de uso.
