Authors: dos Santos Pâmela Virgínia , Komatsu André Vilela , Buoso Fernanda Papa , Alarcón-Bañares Paula Andrea , Bazon Marina Rezende
Published: October 2024

Resumo As experiências adversas na infância (do inglês adverse childhood experiences – ACEs) implicam prejuízos no desenvolvimento psicossocial, afetando a aquisição de competências socioemocionais. Este estudo verificou a associação entre ACEs e competências socioemocionais (indicadas pelos níveis nas habilidades de empatia e autocontrole), considerando o gênero como variável moderadora. Foram coletados dados com 1.302 adolescentes, estudantes de escolas públicas em territórios socialmente vulneráveis. Verificou-se maior prevalência de ACEs para o gênero feminino. Os níveis de empatia e autocontrole oscilaram de formas distintas entre os gêneros, conforme o histórico de determinados tipos de ACEs. Os resultados indicam a necessidade de mais investigações acerca da influência dos estereótipos de gênero no desenvolvimento psicossocial de adolescentes.
DIGITAL TECHNOLOGIES, LITERACIES AND MULTIMODALITY: POSSIBILITIES OF TEACHING ENGLISH ORALITY IN HIGHER EDUCATION
Authors: Oliveira Flávia Medianeira de , Dias Reinildes
Published: October 2024

ABSTRACT This article discusses an investigation on orality (e.g., listening and speaking) we developed with undergraduates in LetrasEnglish Course at the Federal University of Pelotas. Our aim is to build an innovative pedagogy for oral practices based on recent theories about language in the digital age. The design and creation of the learning activities are grounded on the studies about literacies, contextual diversity, and multimodality, following the principles of Social Semiotics. From the perspective of the qualitative research paradigm, the analysis reveals that the pedagogy created by us contributes to the construction of knowledge about the fundamental aspects of contemporary language by the undergraduates. The data analyzed point out that the participants were able to transfer what they have learnt to the process of creating multimodal oral texts, focusing on different contexts and purposes, with the integration of digital technologies.

Published: October 2024

Abstract Objective The psychiatric concept of mental illness disseminated the association between psychological suffering and dangerousness in the West and in countries like Brazil, influenced by Western culture. This article aims to understand how dangerousness is constructed as an identity trait of users accessing substitute services, specifically Psychosocial Care Centers and Therapeutic Residences. It is based on accounts from the population residing near these services in the municipalities of João Pessoa and Campina Grande (Paraíba/Brazil). Method The qualitative methodology of Oral History was employed, and 106 oral testimonies were collected from adult individuals and subjected to Discourse Analysis according to the perspective adopted by Discursive Psychology. Results Identity attributes such as aggressiveness, irrationality and several others with similar meaning were used with varying degrees of subtlety to describe users. Conclusion Despite the differences, the testimonies were employed to link the users with dangerousness and render them unfit for social life.
Redes evangélicas haitianas como mediadoras en la incorporación a la ciudad de Santiago de Chile: ¿hacia una ciudadanía creyente?
Authors: Aguilar de la Cruz Hedilberto , Sandoval Mondaca Génesis , Gissi Barbieri Nicolás
Published: October 2024

Resumen: Por medio del enfoque de redes sociales se exponen las prácticas de soporte sociocultural y económico de las iglesias evangélicas haitianas en Santiago de Chile. Dadas las complejidades propias de la sociedad chilena (contexto de crisis política, sanitaria y económica), así como las particularidades de la cultura haitiana, estas redes se configuran como nodos de acogida, recreación y transformación social de una minoría étnico-nacional. La diáspora haitiana enfrenta una serie de barreras para lograr mejores niveles de ciudadanía, derechos y reconocimiento, procurando superarlas a través de mediadores (pastores y profesionales) que actúan como vínculos con otras entidades religiosas y extra-religiosas, que permiten una incorporación al entorno hostil, de manera que acompañan y “suavizan” su estancia en una diversa sociedad chilena. Por medio de etnografías y entrevistas a profundidad, realizadas en la pre-pandemia (2018-2019) y pos-pandemia (2022-2023), buscamos entender el funcionamiento de estas redes desde las iglesias evangélicas.
Conjugalidades e afetividades evangélicas on-line: o aplicativo Amor em Cristo e o efeito religioso sobre as relações de gênero
Authors: Araújo Bernardo Guimarães Praxedes de , Rosas Nina
Published: October 2024

Resumo: O presente trabalho tem como objeto os vínculos constituídos a partir do aplicativo de relacionamentos Amor em Cristo (AeC). Por meio da análise dos perfis dos usuários e de entrevistas, buscou-se compreender de que forma a fé contribui para a reestruturação das relações de gênero na conjugalidade hodierna. Conclui-se que, com base no status moral conferido pela religiosidade, as mulheres evangélicas modificam a lógica das interações em aplicativos de relacionamento, agenciam seus afetos e centralizam a amizade como instrumento de espera por um período maior para a constituição da intimidade.

Authors: Costa Paulo César Trindade , Arruda Neta Adélia da Costa Pereira de , Martins Vinícius José Baccin , Alves José Luiz de Brito
Published: October 2024

ABSTRACT Objective: To evaluate the predictive validity and cut-off point of heart rate and blood pressure on heart rate variability (HRV) changes in children with and without obesity. Methods: This study included 125 children, of whom 41 were normal weight and 84 were obese. Anthropometry, blood pressure, heart rate, and HRV were measured using an electronic scale and stadiometer, a sphygmomanometer, and HRV monitor. In addition, the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was obtained by statistical analysis of the data. Results: Heart rate proved to be a good predictor for changes in the square root of the mean of the square of the differences between consecutive NN intervals (RMSSD) parameter in students of both sexes for the normal-weight group (ROC 0.89; 95%CI 0.77–1.00) and obesity (ROC 0.90; 95%CI 0.83–0.97). In addition, the heart rate cut-off point for alterations in the RMSSD parameter for normal-weight boys was 93 bpm (sensitivity 100.00% and specificity 87.50%) and for boys with obesity, the established cut-off point was 91 bpm (sensitivity 94.74% and specificity 63.64%). Heart rate also proved to be a good predictor considering low-frequency/high-frequency ratio (LF/HF) and standard deviation of long-term continuous NN intervals /standard deviation of the instantaneous variability of continuous NN intervals in the Poincaré graph ratio (SD2/SD1). Systolic and diastolic blood pressures were good predictors in more specific stratifications and, therefore, can be used in some cases. Conclusions: The predictive validity of heart rate was shown to be at a good level, with high sensitivity and acceptable specificity for the cut-off points according to the different analyses stratified by gender and nutritional status. In this sense, health professionals will be able to use heart rate to estimate cardiovascular risk in children of different sexes and nutritional status.
Capacitismo nas trajetórias educacionais e a produção da fadiga de acesso
Authors: Gesser Marivete , Aydos Valéria , Block Pamela , Silva Paula Xavier da
Published: October 2024

RESUMO Este artigo tem o objetivo de identificar as implicações do capacitismo na produção da fadiga de acesso presente nas trajetórias educacionais de mulheres negras com deficiência. A pesquisa foi embasada nos estudos feministas da deficiência e nos estudos da deficiência na educação. As informações foram obtidas por meio de formulário sociodemográfico e entrevistas em profundidade de caráter autobiográfico com 12 participantes de diferentes regiões do Brasil. Os resultados apontaram que o capacitismo, na interseção com outros sistemas opressivos, associado à compreensão neoliberal de que a busca por direitos é de responsabilidade individual, cria barreiras estruturais e interpessoais à busca por acessibilidade, gerando fadiga de acesso.
Ableism in educational trajectories and the production of access fatigue
Authors: Gesser Marivete , Aydos Valéria , Block Pamela , Silva Paula Xavier da
Published: October 2024

ABSTRACT This article aims to examine the implications of the ableism in the production of access fatigue as it is experienced by black disabled women throughout their educational trajectories. The research is based on feminist disability studies and disability studies in education. The information was obtained through a sociodemographic form and in-depth autobiographical interviews applied to 12 participants from different regions of Brazil. The results show that ableism exists at an intersection with other oppressive systems and is associated with the neoliberal belief that striving for rights is an individual responsibility. This creates structural and interpersonal barriers to claiming the right to access within educational contexts and generates access fatigue.
Para Desestabilizar Deficiências: uma análise de implicações aleijada
Authors: Mozzi Gisele De
Published: October 2024

RESUMO Pretende-se discorrer sobre alguns atravessamentos do processo de fazer pesquisa no campo da deficiência. Para tecer estas problematizações são utilizados extratos de uma pesquisa realizada com estudantes com deficiência que ingressaram em uma universidade pública federal por meio da política de ações afirmativas. A fim de aleijar a análise de implicações, sugere-se apostar na potência ético-política da existência da diferença, antecipar e desejar a diversidade nos mais diversos espaços, contextos e temporalidades acadêmicas, desestabilizar saberes hegemônicos e, por fim, assumir um posicionamento ético-político comprometido com a luta anticapacitista.
BPC at School Program and Care Policies for People with Disabilities
Authors: Angelucci Biancha
Published: October 2024

ABSTRACT The article addresses education, considering its social purposes, its specific epistemic field, and its possibilities of intervention on reality. The research focused on the BPC at School Program (Programa BPC na Escola), which aims to monitor and follow up the access and permanence in school of people with disabilities who receive the BPC benefit. The activities took place in the city of Suzano-SP, mainly involving the reading of 337 questionnaires. It is possible to conclude that, although little put into practice, the BPC at School Program remains an important strategy to ensure the right to education for children and adolescents with disabilities, precisely because of its power to induce intersectoral actions.

Published: October 2024

ABSTRACT Purpose To characterize and compare hearing and middle ear status in patients with cleft lip and palate with or without a history of ventilation tube insertion. Methods Retrospective study that involved the analysis of 463 medical records of patients with non-syndromic repaired unilateral cleft lip and palate. Otoscopy, immittance measures, audiometry and ventilation tube history over 10 years were analyzed. Results From 440 medical records included in the study, 254 (58%) had a history of VT insertion, while 186 (42%) did not. The percentage of abnormal findings in otoscopic examination was consistently higher for ears with a history of VT and statistical analysis revealed an association between history of VT and fluid in the middle ear (p<0.001); tympanic opacification (p<0.001); tympanic retraction (p<0.001) tympanic perforation (p<0.001) and tympanosclerosis (p<0.001). The type B tympanometric curve was observed in 46.4% of ears with a history of present VT, compared to 16.3% in individuals with an absent history of VT (p<0.001) and the difference of 30.1% between groups was significant (p<0.001), indicating association between VT and type B curve. Hearing loss was more frequent in ears with a history of VT (34.2%), when compared to ears without this history (10.4%), with a statistically significant difference (p<0.001), indicating positive association between VT and hearing loss. Conclusion Worse otoscopic and auditory results were found in patients with cleft lip and palate with a history of VT.
Sintomas musculoesqueléticos persistentes na Síndrome Pós-COVID-19 Aguda: uma revisão integrativa
Authors: Vilar Rafael Quirino de Souza
Published: October 2024

Resumo Introdução Estudos têm demonstrado o envolvimento progressivo de sintomas musculoesquelético nas sequelas pós-COVID-19, principalmente no que se refere à fadiga e à fraqueza muscular. Objetivo identificar na literatura os sintomas musculoesqueléticos como sequelas pós-infecção por SARS-Cov-2, bem como investigar a relação dessas variáveis. Metodologia Trata-se de uma revisão integrativa da literatura produzida nos últimos quatro anos, indexadas nas bases de dados PubMed, Web of Science, ScienceDirect e Scielo. A revisão foi baseada nas diretrizes do PRISMA. Resultados Dos 528 registros encontrados, 11 foram incluídos. Os artigos concluíram que os sobreviventes da COVID-19 podem apresentar sintomas musculoesqueléticos após a recuperação, acarretando prejuízos ao longo do tempo. Os sintomas mais citados foram: fadiga, mialgia, fraqueza muscular, fragilidade, dor musculoesquelética geral, lombalgia, artralgia, perda muscular e diminuição da força. A persistência dos sintomas após a infecção pelo vírus da síndrome respiratória aguda grave – coronavírus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pode estar relacionada a uma resposta imunológica desregulada, resultando na produção excessiva de citocinas pró-inflamatórias. Conclusão As publicações ainda são incipientes, principalmente no contexto brasileiro, necessitando de mais estudos para relacionar e explicar o motivo do SARS-CoV-2 deixar sequelas a longo prazo no sistema musculoesquelético. É necessário um olhar holístico da equipe multiprofissional ao atender pacientes com COVID longa.

Resumo A pandemia de CoVID-19 agravou muitas problemáticas não suficientemente enfrentadas pelas políticas públicas sociais do Brasil. A evasão escolar é uma delas e afeta desproporcionalmente jovens das classes populares, em especial aqueles que são pobres, negros e periféricos, demandando corresponsabilidade de diferentes setores e atores sociais. A experiência da pesquisa/intervenção da qual decorre este texto voltou-se para as matrizes explicativas que incidiram e permanecem incidindo na ocorrência da evasão e/ou desistência escolar, além da compreensão e busca da superação dos motivos impeditivos do retorno ou da permanência do jovem à/na escola. Uma equipe interinstitucional formada por pesquisadores vinculados à Rede Metuia – Terapia Ocupacional Social, composta também por jovens universitários e jovens estudantes do Ensino Médio, vem desenvolvendo esta pesquisa/intervenção nas cidades de São Carlos e Santos (SP), João Pessoa (PB), Petrolina (PE), Brasília/Ceilândia (DF) e Simão Dias (SE). Para tanto, tendo como base a pesquisa-participante e a terapia ocupacional social, jovens universitários e jovens pesquisadores em suas escolas e/ou comunidades têm acompanhado, de forma singular e territorial, outros jovens que estão fora da escola. Agregando-se outras estratégias metodológicas, tais como questionários, photovoice, entrevistas, painel de especialistas, seminários locais e internacionais, bem como ampliando-se a ideia da “busca ativa”, que tem sido exigida dos profissionais da educação, pretende-se um cuidado ativo e democrático, corresponsabilizando todos que compõem a rede social de suporte dos jovens em seus territórios. Trata-se aqui de compartilhar essa experiência desde sua construção aos questionamentos decorrentes dos seus dois primeiros anos.

Published: October 2024

Abstract Introduction People with Parkinson’s disease may pre-sent muscle weakness. The handgrip test is used to identify upper limbs strength. There are different protocol descriptions of this assessment. Objective To carry out a systematic review on the assessment of handgrip strength in people with Parkinson’s. Methods The review was carried out according to the PRISMA guidelines, the PubMed, SciELO, LILACS and Scopus literary databases, and registered at PROSPERO (CRD420201 9018). Quantitative analysis was performed using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale. Twenty-seven articles were analyzed. Results The most referenced protocol is that of the American Society of Hand Therapists. The most used instrument is the hydraulic dynamometer. Of the sixteen studies that compared handgrip strength be-tween people with Parkinson’s and healthy people, seven identified a statistically significant difference. No article was classified as unsatisfactory. Conclusion It is not possible to affirm that handgrip strength is reduced in Parkinson’s disease, when compared to healthy subjects. Protocol and instrument standardization can help com-parisons between results from different studies. There are few longitudinal studies, making it difficult to under-stand what happens to handgrip strength as the disease progresses.

Published: October 2024

Avaliamos alguns aspectos provenientes da interação entre estudantes de um programa de pós-graduação e mestres oriundos de povos e comunidades tradicionais no transcurso de uma disciplina baseada no Encontro de Saberes (ES). Adaptamos o método de avaliação qualitativa preconizado pela Avaliação de Quarta Geração de modo a captar as principais questões apontadas pelos participantes. O ES apresentou potencialidades políticas e intersubjetivas, na medida em que o diálogo cuidadoso entre diferentes epistemes colocou em perspectiva a noção de ciência única e ocasionou o desvelamento e a retomada reflexiva de aspectos da ascendência direta e da ancestralidade presentes nas trajetórias particulares dos estudantes.

Authors: Silva Maria Catarina Messias da , Braga Iara Falleiros , Silva Daví Antonio
Published: October 2024

Este estudo visa apresentar a percepção de crianças de uma comunidade periférica sobre os seus direitos. A metodologia envolveu a realização de Oficinas de Atividades, Dinâmicas e Projetos em uma comunidade periférica do Nordeste brasileiro em parceria com um Centro de Referência da Assistência Social e o uso de diários de campo como forma de registro. Os resultados apontam reflexões cruciais sobre o fenômeno do trabalho infantil e as dinâmicas sociais envolvidas. Revelou-se que as crianças possuem uma visão crítica e complexa de seus direitos, dos recursos aos quais têm acesso e das violações que enfrentam. A ausência do Estado e a fragilidade nas relações foram identificadas como fatores que contribuem para violações de direitos, notadamente o trabalho infantil. Essas ações revelaram as problemáticas sociais enfrentadas pelas crianças, permitindo sua participação e sua autonomia em todas as etapas da pesquisa.
Does the body speak? Body map of the relationship with food narrated by women in an intervention for food consciousness
Authors: Leghi Barbara Esteves , Palazzo Carina Carlucci , Magalhães Lilian , Diez-Garcia Rosa Wanda
Published: October 2024

The relationship between the body and food has been impacted by the obesogenic environment, a scarce topic in the literature, which affects women and requires in-depth methods. This study aimed to access and explore the recognition of the relationship between the body and food of women participating in an educational intervention for food consciousness using the body map storytelling, a visual methodology. This is qualitative research, conducted with nineteen Brazilian women, who developed the body map individually and analyzed considering visual and narrative representations. Forms of self-denomination were recognized by themes that demonstrated how aspects of identity defined or intensified the relationship between the body and food. This study contributed to a strategy for educational food and nutrition programs to strengthen women’s health.

Published: October 2024

We evaluated some aspects from the interaction between students of a graduate program and leaders from traditional peoples and communities in a course based on Meeting of Knowledges (MK). We adapted the qualitative evaluation recommended by the fourth generation evaluation to capture the main issues raised by participants. MK showed political and intersubjective potentialities as the careful dialogue between epistemes put into perspective the notion of unique science and unveiled and reflexively resumed aspects of direct descent and ancestry in students’ particular trajectories.

From the buffoon to the hospital clown: the trajectories of ridicule in a society of the spectacle
Authors: Silva Maria Rosa da , Marques Maria Cristina da Costa , Caires Susana , Guedes Mateus Moreira , Miná Neto Valdemar Pereira
Published: October 2024

The study presents reflections on the historical relevance of buffoons through an analysis of the artistic and social view from the buffoon to the hospital clown. The subject is discussed in four topics: The mask, the actor, and the audience; The buffoon and the expression of ridicule; The spectacle and the indication of ridicule; and Laughter in the society of the spectacle. The hospital clown promotes a reflection that is similar to that of the buffoon, but the interaction with the audience must present a spectacle of comicality with an ethical stance. It is possible to laugh at oneself in the face of adversity, at the sick body, but respecting the patient, and at postures of professional superiority concerning care, as a way of reversing the logic of power without questioning one’s professionalism, with an equal degree of protagonism.

Published: October 2024

Bu çalışmanın amacı, katılım bankalarında çalışanların homoislamicus davranışının incelenmesidir. Modern iktisat biliminde insan, homoeconomicus olarak kabul edilmektedir. Homoeconomicus sadece kendi çıkarlarını kollayan bencil insandır. Oysa çalışma hayatında homoeconomicusların varlığı, iş ahlâkının devamlılığını olumsuz bir şekilde etkilemiştir. Ahlâklı bir çalışma hayatı için homoislamicus davranış gösteren ahlâklı bireylere ihtiyaç vardır. Çalışmada, Sabahattin Zaim’in “Ekonomik Hayatta Müslüman İnsanın Tutum ve Davranışları” makalesinden yola çıkılarak “homoislamicus ölçeği” geliştirilmiştir. Ölçek, altı boyut (ikrazda bulunma, ücretli olarak çalışma, tüketim harcamalarında bulunma, gelir elde etme, ekip ruhuyla hareket etme ve helal kazanç) ve 40 sorudan oluşturulmuştur. Araştırmanın örneklemi Türkiye’nin farklı bölgelerinde çalışan, 293 katılım bankası personelidir. Anketlerle elde edilen veriler SPSS26 istatistik programında analiz edilmiştir. Çalışmanın sonucunda katılım bankası çalışanlarının, bulunduğu bölgelere, gelir düzeyine ve unvanlarına göre davranışlarında bazı farklılıklar olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Ayrıca, Türkiye’deki diğer bölgelere nazaran İç Anadolu, Karadeniz, Doğu Anadolu bölgesinde homoislamicus davranışı puanlarının daha yüksek olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Eğitim seviyesi, medeni hal ve yaş değişkenlerinin ise ekonomik faaliyetlerde İslâmi insan davranışı puanlarını etkilemediği sonucuna ulaşılmıştır.

Cette étude qualitative se penche sur les questions du multilinguisme, de la communication à l’hôpital et des modalités de gestion de la diversité linguistique en milieu hospitalier. Par le biais d’une enquête menée auprès d’un groupe d’étudiants internationaux qui suivent des études médicales en langue anglaise à l’Université Ovidius de Constanta (Roumanie), nous analysons dans notre étude les modalités et les stratégies de communication multilingue des étudiants internationaux en stage à l’hôpital du pays d’accueil. L’analyse des résultats a montré l’importance d’intensifier et de prolonger l’enseignement-l’apprentissage de la langue et de la culture du pays d’accueil ainsi que la nécessité, pour l’hôpital, de former ses professionnels à la diversité linguistique et culturelle et de recourir aux compétences langagières plurilingues des étudiants internationaux. Les résultats qualitatifs ont relevé les caractéristiques de l’hôpital roumain en général et notamment du stage clinique hospitalier, ainsi que les stratégies de communication employées dans la triade interactionnelle étudiant étranger – personnel médical – patient.
Stakeholder Perspectives on the Integration of African Languages in Higher Education Learning: A South African Case Study
Authors:   University of Cape Town, Gambushe Wanga
Published: October 2024

Since the dawn of democracy in South Africa (1994), higher education has ex- perienced substantial demographic changes. Despite South Africa’s status as a multilingual country with linguistic diversity recognised by the Constitution, higher education institutions inadequately represent this multilingualism. This gap has been identified as a contributing factor to the underperformance of students who speak Indigenous African languages in higher education. Con- sequently, various policies have been implemented to amplify the presence of African languages in higher education. Employing a case study design, this research aimed to delve into the perspectives of diverse stakeholders in a Cell Bi- ology module at a South African university regarding the use of African languages to support learning in higher education. Students, lecturers, and practical demon- strators were asked about their thoughts on the use of African languages to assist African language-speaking students. Findings revealed a divide in opinion, with students overwhelmingly in favour, lecturers expressing conflicting views, and demonstrators who spoke African languages generally supportive, while others had reservations. In the end, the central question posed is: Whose opinion holds more significance, that of the students or their lecturers?
Localisation Loss in the French Versions of Websites from the Andalusian Agri-Food Sector
Authors:   Universidad Pablo de Olavide, Ramírez-Delgado Cristina de las Montañas
Published: October 2024

Research in translation studies addressing the corporate website text genre has reported some content loss that occurs in localized versions when compared to the original versions. This study focuses on the contrastive analysis of a corpus of homepages and products sections from corporate websites from the Andalusian agri-food sector, studying their original versions (in Spanish) and the versions localised into English and French, according to a localization error taxonomy. The analysis focuses on assessing content loss in French versions, given that France is one of the main export destinations of the Andalusian agri-food industry. It is worth noticing that English versions tend to have less shortcomings than those localised into other languages, which may due to the international status of this language. Results show mainly shortcomings related to content omissions, untranslated text, and English text in versions localised into French, which puts French versions at a disadvantage in relation to English versions.
A Pilot Investigation of Positive Psychology Instruments and Dialectical Behavior Therapy Treatment Outcomes
Authors: Warlick Craig A. , Huffman Jonathan M. , Poquiz Jonathan L. , Moffitt-Carney Kelsey M. , Krieshok Thomas S. , DeLong Leslie , Schellenger Brynne , Leonard Julia , Nelson Juliet
Published: October 2024

There is efficacy evidence for dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) and positive psychology interventions. However, there is minimal research examining positive psychology constructs alongside psychopathology measures in clinical populations. Accordingly, this study examined these associations in a DBT intensive outpatient program (IOP). Participants included 39 adults enrolled in a DBT IOP who completed measures of depression, anxiety, stress, emotion regulation, hope, and self-compassion. Results indicated hope and self-compassion were higher in graduates than in dropouts and were negatively associated with psychopathology measures. The relationship between depression and graduation status reached practical significance but not statistical significance. Two self-compassion subscales, mindfulness and common humanity, were significantly related to the number of sessions attended in this brief program. These findings indicate positive psychology measures possess utility within clinical populations. To accurately assess treatment success, counselors should consider measuring both the pathological and the positive.

The Repeating Major Earthquakes in the Mexican Subduction Zone Along Oaxaca: Implications for Future Events
Authors: Garza-Giron Ricardo , Lay Thorne , Ye Lingling
Published: October 2024

The subduction zone along Oaxaca, Mexico, has experienced multiple Mw ≥ 7 earthquakes that ruptured in close proximity several decades apart in at least three locations along the coast. Similarity of waveform recordings from a few long-period seismic stations at teleseismic distances has provided evidence for up to three repeated failures of the same slip patches, or persistent asperities, in the region. The evidence from prior single-station comparisons is bolstered by considering azimuthally distributed sets of body-wave recording pairs for the 1968 and 2018 Pinotepa Nacional (western Oaxaca), and 1965 and 2020 La Crucecita (eastern Oaxaca) earthquakes, as viewed in the long-period World-Wide Standardized Seismograph Network instrument passband (>5 s period). Drawing on detailed slip inversions for the most recent events and observations of their relationships with regional slow-slip events, we note features to be alert for in central Oaxaca where prior repeating events in 1928 and 1978 occurred and there is potential for a similar future event.
Studying Hard-to-Reach Populations applications using river sampling, The case of foster families
Authors: Skalec-Ruczynska Agata
Published: October 2024

This paper presents the application of non-probability sampling – the rivers sample method to reach a group of professional foster parents in Poland – case of hard-to-reach population. This is a population whose public, nationwide register does not exist and additionally, it is kittle known about it in terms of the characteristics of its members, therefore quota sampling was not feasible. River sample method involves recruiting respondents by inviting them to the survey while they are doing some other activity on the Internet. The invitation to take part in the survey can be made through online banners, advertisements, information in forums or e-mails and on thematic websites. It provides a quick, low-cost, flexible way of reaching the group of respondents who are the target but it has its limitations- under-coverage and self-selection – which may affect the bias in the sample and thus the possibility to generalise to populations. Despite those limitations the presented study obtained a sample that reflects the proportions regarding the known characteristics in the population of professional foster carers in Poland: their provincial distribution and diversity of forms. In general, the river sample method works efficiently especially for exploratory studies and hard-to-reach groups.

Occupational therapists speaking for justice and human rights: From complicit silencing to collective resistance
Authors: Collective AnonymOT
Published: October 2024

We are a Collective of occupational therapists from all areas of practice and roles with longstanding commitments to working for human rights in the context of colonial oppressions, including genocide. We aim to affirm our deep commitment to occupational therapy’s values and principles by naming and acting against the ongoing genocide of Palestinian people. This paper is an act of collective resistance, self-assertion and solidarity for all those in the profession who have been erased, denied, and harmed by the silence of occupational therapy’s national and international governing bodies, as well as the silencing. We write this piece anonymously to add our voices to those healthcare professionals who are speaking out – including those working in healthcare in Gaza. We begin by naming the injustice, citing recent evidence and the rulings of various international bodies considered authoritative and legitimate. Then we address the injustice of silence, as experienced in the occupational therapy profession through the silencing of its members. We continue by reviewing relevant professional obligations and ethical responsibilities of occupational therapists, including the requirement to speak out against occupational injustices. This is followed by an outline and critique of our profession’s governing bodies’ problematic responses and complicity, naming the harms caused from within. We conclude this paper by indicating the only ethical option for action; one that also applies to other healthcare professions whose institutions have been silent, hoping this will incite them to break their silence.

Laptops in the Long-Run: Evidence from the One Laptop per Child Program in Rural Peru
Authors: Cueto Santiago , Beuermann Diether , Cristia Julian P. , Malamud Ofer , Pardo Francisco
Published: October 2024

This paper examines a large-scale randomized evaluation of the One Laptop Per Child (OLPC) program in 531 rural primary schools, as implemented by the Peruvian government starting in 2009. We use administrative and survey data on academic achievement and grade progression through 2019 to estimate the long-run effects of educational technology on i) academic performance and grade progression in schools over time and ii) student trajectories as they progress from primary school to university. We find negative and significant effects on completing primary and secondary education on time but no effects on achievement. We find positive and significant impacts on students' computer skills but no effects on broader cognitive skills. Information on teacher training and computer utilization suggests limited benefits of providing educational technology without sufficient pedagogical support.
The category of observer in the works of M.M. Bakhtin and the U. Eco`s novel «The Name of the Rose»
Authors: Makhov Dmitry
Published: October 2024

The article is devoted to an expeximent in analyzing the category «observer» in U. Eco's novel «The Name of the Rose». The first part of the paper analyzes methodological prerequisites for the study of the category «observer» in the works of M.M. Bakhtin, identifies the range of philosophical concepts necessary to comprehend the category. The second part presents the results of analyzing the composition of U. Eco's novel «The Name of the Rose» in the context of B. Uspensky's methodology (poetics of viewpoints). In addition, it is by interpreting the factors of artistic impression on the focal, glossal, plot and mythotectonic (V.I. Tyupa) levels of the novel that the category «observer», hidden in the tectonic core of the work, is clarified. The differences between the category «observer» in M.M. Bakhtin's understanding and U. Eco's artistic practice are noted. The conclusions to the article formulate a generalized conception of the category «observer» of U. Eco's novel «The Name of the Rose» for the first time in scientific research.

This research study examined the physical enrichment processes of coal fly ash (CFA) from the 2nd thermal power plant in Almaty. Magnetic separator and flotation enrichment methods were used to separate the magnetite and carbon parts of coal fly ash, respectively. In the study, a laboratory magnetic separator separated hematite content from 4.49 to 5.57% by mass from ash residues of different fractions. Cheap and available kerosene and flotol-b were used as flotation reagents for flotation enrichment. The particle size of coal ash is 63-100 μm, and the amount of carbon concentrate is ~16.3% by weight. The remaining mineral of coal ash is an essential raw material for building materials.

Hydrophobic electrospun membranes have a lot of applications in different fields. It is very difficult to increase the hydrophobicity of membranes for a specific application. This study investigates the effects of various electrospinning parameters on the morphology and hydrophobicity of polystyrene (PS) electrospun membranes. Polystyrene fibers were used as a reference for the study. Different parameters such as polymer concentrations, diameter of needles, and applied voltage were tested to study the influence on the hydrophobicity of electrospun fibers. Polystyrene fibers were electrospun at different concentrations from 5 to 20 wt.%, needles with a diameter from 0.5 to 3 mm were used, and voltage was applied between 8.06–16.05 kV. The surface morphology of polystyrene fibers and hydrophobicity were studied with a scanning electronic microscope and contact angle measurements. Based on the results of the study, higher polymer concentrations and voltages produce thinner fibers and more hydrophobic membranes. The results of this paper can be applied to the fabrication of different characteristic membranes for specific applications like water conservation, purification, and other fields.
Formalization of the General Hoare Logic Laws
Authors: Kupusinac Aleksandar , Malbaski Dusan
Published: October 2024

This paper presents a new approach to formalizing the general rules of the Hoare logic. Our way is based on formulas of the first-order predicate logic defined over the abstract state space of a virtual machine, i.e. so-called S-formulas. S-formulas are general tool for analyzing program semantics inasmuch as Hoare triples of total and partial correctness are not more than two S-formulas. The general rules of Hoare logic, such as the laws of consequence, conjunction, disjunction and negation can be derived using axioms and theorems of firstorder predicate logic. Every proof is based on deriving the validity of some S-formula, so the procedure may be automated using automatic theorem provers. In this paper we will use Coq
