Impacto del discurso político en la difusión de bulos sobre Covid-19. Influencia de la desinformación en públicos y medios
Authors: Pérez-Curiel Concha , Velasco Molpeceres Ana María
Published: October 2020

Introducción: El desorden informativo generado por la Covid-19 dibuja un escenario estratégico para la difusión de la falacia y la propaganda política. Las redes sociales, en modo eco-chamber, reproducen el discurso gubernamental de la confusión y la mentira y favorecen un clima de desinformación, desestabilizador de las democracias. En paralelo, los públicos digitales se instalan como prosumidores del bulo político en Twitter y se atisba una tendencia de los medios a combatir las fake news. Metodología: El objetivo principal es conocer qué marcas de desinformación identifican el mensaje del líder, qué papel juegan las audiencias en la producción y difusión de lo falso y qué procesos de verificación desarrollan las agencias de fact-checking (Pagella Politica, Maldito Bulo, Full Fact y PolitiFact) y los medios (La Repubblica, El País, The Guardian y The New York Times) en una situación de máximo riesgo. Sobre una muestra compuesta por tweets publicados por los presidentes de gobierno (n= 272), noticias relacionadas con la Covid-19 (n1=4.543) y bulos detectados en Twitter (n1=200) diseñamos una metodología de análisis de contenido cuantitativo-cualitativo y análisis crítico del discurso político. Se emplea el software SPSS de estadística aplicada. Resultados, discusión y conclusiones: Los resultados revelan el protagonismo de un lenguaje político falaz, que favorece la producción del bulo en la red y requiere la efectividad del sistema de fact-checking de agencias internacionales y medios de comunicación, para combatir lo falso, siempre, y más si cabe en momentos de una pandemia sanitaria sin precedentes.

Authors: Gil Ramírez Marta , Gómez de Travesedo Rojas Ruth , Almansa Martínez Ana
Published: October 2020

Introducción: Esta investigación examina la tipología del consumo de los vídeos más reproducidos en YouTube en relación con las primeras etapas de la crisis del coronavirus en España, categorizando las temáticas que obtuvieron mayor interés, las fechas que registraron niveles de consumo más elevados, y la tipología de los uploaders que sirvieron como principales fuentes de información. Metodología: Desde una perspectiva cuantitativa-cualitativa, se realiza un análisis de contenido de los 200 vídeos con mayor impacto entre el 13 de marzo y el 13 de abril de 2020, en base a los descriptores coronavirus y COVID-19. Resultados: Los canales de medios de comunicación, tanto españoles como extranjeros, constituyeron las principales fuentes informativas sobre la situación de la pandemia. Los contenidos centrados en datos epidemiológicos, seguidos de la comunicación institucional, fueron los que despertaron mayor interés. El consumo de vídeos aumentó tras el decreto del Estado de Alarma, coincidiendo los picos con las prórrogas del mismo y con aquellos momentos en los que el número de contagios se dispara. Discusión y Conclusiones: YouTube está funcionando en la pandemia de la COVID-19 como plataforma depositaria de informaciones provenientes de los sistemas de medios convencionales. Resulta significativa la ausencia entre los principales uploader de la OMS como agencia internacional de salud referente en las decisiones adoptadas por la mayoría de los países afectados, lo que plantea una reflexión sobre la oportunidad del uso estratégico de YouTube como medio de difusión masiva durante situaciones de riesgo para la salud pública como lo es la crisis del coronavirus.
Bulos durante la pandemia del Covid-19 en España: un estudio a través de Google Trends
Authors: Villa Gracia Alberto Daniel , Cerdán Martínez Víctor
Published: October 2020

Introducción: El 14 de marzo de 2020 se declaró el estado de alarma en España para frenar la expansión de un nuevo tipo de coronavirus. Ante la proliferación de fake news sobre la pandemia y la situación política y social, el Gobierno español manifestó su intención de luchar contra los bulos que pudieran perjudicar el clima social. Metodología: Esta investigación realiza un análisis cuantitativo sobre las búsquedas en España de los términos “bulo” y “fake” en Google durante un periodo histórico y los compara con el de la pandemia en España a través de un análisis de regresión. Resultados: Se aprecia un pico histórico de búsquedas de “bulo” un mes antes de que se alcanzaran los peores datos de fallecidos en España y una correlación positiva (R =0,966) entre la comparación de las búsquedas de la palabra “bulo” y las víctimas por Covid-19. Discusión: El análisis indica que los datos de las búsquedas en Google por la palabra “bulo” y las muertes diarias tienen una correlación estadística durante el periodo de expansión de la pandemia en España. Conclusiones: El análisis de regresión demuestra que durante el desarrollo de la pandemia existió una tendencia correlativa entre el interés de los ciudadanos españoles por las noticias falsas y el incremento de muertes por Covid-19.

Authors: Orte Socías María del Carmen , Ballester Brage Lluís , Nevot Caldentey Maria de Lluc
Published: October 2020

Introducción: El 14 de marzo de 2020, el Gobierno Español, declaró el estado de alarma para afrontar la situación de emergencia sanitaria provocada por la rápida evolución de la pandemia de COVID-19. El mayor impacto de las restricciones aplicadas por la falta de contacto con los principales ámbitos de socialización se ha dado sobre la infancia y la adolescencia. El incremento en de las tasas de violencia familiar y del consumo abusivo del juego o de la pornografía evidencian la necesidad de reforzar las medidas de prevención familiar. Metodología: se realizó una revisión de las principales medidas de prevención familiar aplicadas en España. Se clasifican según los niveles de prevención (primario/educativo-secundario/socio-educativo-terciario/psicológico) y se proponen medidas complementarias identificadas en el ámbito internacional. Resultados: gran parte de las medidas de prevención españolas son de carácter terciario. El apoyo psicológico telefónico fue la medida mayormente aplicada en las diferentes autonomías del estado español. Discusión: a pesar de los riesgos emergentes en los hogares españoles durante el confinamiento por COVID-19, no se identifican recursos para que las familias pudieran gestionar las dinámicas familiares cotidianas de manera efectiva. Conclusiones: se concluye la necesidad de facilitar recursos de prevención primaria de riesgos, orientados a mejorar la comunicación familiar y las competencias parentales con tal de reducir las tasas de violencia familiar y el uso inadecuado de las TIC por parte de niños/as y adolescentes.
La transformación digital de la docencia universitaria en comunicación durante la crisis de la COVID-19 en España: una aproximación desde la perspectiva del alumnado
Authors: Baladrón Pazos Antonio J. , Correyero Ruiz Beatriz , Manchado Pérez Benjamín
Published: October 2020

Introducción: La crisis sanitaria de la COVID-19 (enfermedad producida por el coronavirus o SARS-COV-2) en el año 2020 conllevó la suspensión de la docencia presencial en las universidades españolas y evidenció las dificultades para avanzar en la transformación digital del mundo universitario. El objetivo de la investigación cuyos resultados se exponen aquí es aproximarse, desde la perspectiva del alumnado, al modo en que los estudios universitarios en comunicación en España adaptaron la docencia de presencial a virtual durante dicha crisis. Metodología: Se aplicó un cuestionario online autoadministrado sobre una muestra del alumnado de Facultades de Comunicación de todas las Comunidades Autónomas de España en las que se imparten estos estudios. Resultados: El 57% de los estudiantes aprueba la gestión de sus centros de estudio, porcentaje superior en las universidades privadas. El aula virtual ha sido la plataforma tecnológica de referencia (en el 84,5% de casos) y los principales recursos docentes utilizados han sido la subida de archivos con temario (73,2%) y la realización de videoconferencias (67,9%), siendo este último el mejor valorado por los alumnos pese a no ser el más empleado. Conclusiones: Las Facultades de Comunicación -en el contexto de la universidad española- han sabido potenciar los medios de los que disponían para la docencia virtual, si bien la pandemia ha puesto en evidencia las limitaciones tecnológicas de las universidades. A grandes rasgos y dada la urgencia de la transformación, se ha trasladado al mundo online los métodos docentes propios de la enseñanza presencial en lugar de desarrollar una docencia que aproveche todas las potencialidades de lo virtual. En la docencia virtual, en especial en situaciones anómalas como la vivida, es fundamental el papel del profesor no sólo como transmisor de conocimientos sino en su papel de atención al alumno.

Introducción: En este trabajo se describen los procedimientos de verificación de Newtral en la infodemia acontecida durante la crisis de la Covid-19 y las características de los contenidos verificados. Metodología: Se analizan 205 contenidos verificados entre el 25 de enero y el 25 de mayo de 2020, se hace un seguimiento de los procesos de verificación y se realiza entrevista personal no estructurada con el director de contenidos de Newtral. Resultados: El número de contenidos verificados aumentó considerablemente a partir del 10 de marzo, cuatro días antes de decretarse el estado de alarma. En cuanto a los sistemas de verificación, en el 90,5% de los casos se recurrió a consulta de fuentes, empleándose herramientas solamente en el 9,5%. Lo más difundido fueron textos en redes sociales, detectándose el 66% de los casos en más de una red social. Fue imposible detectar el origen en el 91,7% de los contenidos contrastados. Discusión y conclusiones: La consulta a diversas fuentes fue el método de verificación más utilizado, muy por delante de herramientas como motores de búsqueda o de geolocalización. Prevalecieron las consultas a fuentes oficiales y suplantadas. Lo más habitual fueron contenidos fabricados e impostores difundidos a través de redes sociales y WhatsApp.

ACCESSORY PERONEUS BREVIS TENDON - A CASE REPORT
Authors: Kathole Mahendra , Patil Krishna S , Raizaday Shobhit , Syed Sadiq
Published: October 2020

Introduction: The development of limb musculature takes place between the fifth and seventh weeks of intrauterine life. The genes MYO-D and MYF5 regulate the limb musculature development and any defect in these may lead to either a partial or complete loss or an addition to the normal muscle morphology. This case report presents the observation of an accessory tendon of the Peroneus brevis muscle in the left lower limb of a 70 year old male cadaver during the routine dissection for undergraduate students at Government Medical College, Miraj. The variant insertion of the Peroneus brevis tendon on the calcaneal tubercle is clinically important to note in cases of lateral ankle pain and
instability. The presence of an accessory tendon of the peroneus brevis muscle may also be a cause of the longitudinal splitting of the muscle which should be taken into consideration while making a diagnosis and planning surgeries around the lateral aspect of the ankle.

Authors: Sharma Tanya , Sharma Siddhant , Pandey Anita , Raizaday Shobhit , Khare Satyam , Tomar Mahima
Published: October 2020

Introduction: Microorganisms can colonize the surfaces of cadavers and may pose health hazards to the students and the staff handling them. The objective of the study was to study the spectrum of bacteria and fungi colonizing the surfaces of cadavers and to determine the need to follow infection control protocols during their handling.
Materials and methods: A total of 100 swabs were collected from superficial and deep surfaces of the cadavers and its surroundings. The swabs were cultured on blood agar and Mac Conkey’s agar plates for isolation of bacterial species and Sabourauds Dextrose Agar (SDA) slants for isolation of fungal species. Identification of the bacterial and fungal isolates was done using standard bacteriological and mycological methods respectively.
Results: Overall culture positivity rate was 78%. There was predominance of isolation of bacterial species (50%). Escherichia coli and Coagulase negative Staphylococci [CoNS] (23.07 % each) were the predominant bacteria isolated and Aspergillus species (37.50%) was the predominant fungus isolated from human cadavers.
Conclusions: Various bacteria and fungi colonized the surface of cadavers. Therefore, the study emphasizes the need for practicing “Standard infection control protocols” in the dissection hall while handling the cadavers.

O trabalho consiste na análise de declarações cedidas em entrevistas por jornalistas investigativos exclusivamente para esta pesquisa. Foram selecionados jornalistas que publicaram reportagens consideradas referências na produção e que tenham tido algum tipo de reconhecimento. Considerou-se, portanto, os que obtiveram prêmios nacionais e/ou internacionais, com reportagens que transformaram determinadas realidades, nos últimos 10 anos. Realizamos também uma revisão bibliográfica dos conceitos de jornalismo investigativo e reportagem para, a partir de então, analisar as opiniões dos jornalistas, associando-as à literatura relacionada. Em geral, expressa-se uma posição defensiva a respeito da reportagem, considerando as tecnologias digitais e a realidade de meios de comunicação tradicionais. Observa-se também uma preocupação em relação à manutenção dos princípios e valores do jornalismo diante das mudanças.

La reconfiguración de la esfera pública en las redes sociales
Authors: Zurita Grace , Vásquez María Belén
Published: October 2020

As redes sociais mudaram a configuração da esfera pública construída no curso do século vinte, adquirindo elementos que eram constituintes da esfera privada. Estas esferas são essenciais para a conformação das sociedades modernas, definidas por conceitos desenvolvidos pelos filósofos gregos, têm uma semelhança que embasa a sua construção no ciberespaço. O Facebook, neste caso, se torna um espaço dotado de perspectiva crítica com relação aos eventos públicos que acontecem no Equador. Neste sentido, por dita rede social ser um dos lugares fundamentais onde a opinião pública é debatida, socializada e deliberada, os perfis são monitorados e, em certas ocasiões, ocultados ou parcializados pelas emissoras e meios de informação. Esta apresentação considera dita configuração analisando a informação proporcionada pelos usuários durante a catástrofe de 16 de abril de 2016, para entender o estado da discussão equatoriana através de dita plataforma. Com este fim, construiu-se uma ferramenta de observação que categorizou os elementos que conformam as esferas públicas e privadas, para estabelecer a transposição do endógeno para o exógeno. A amostra foi genérica, devido à extensa quantidade de informação que há sobre o evento analisado, para a qual estudaram-se as primeiras 48 horas das interações entre os usuários da plataforma.

A pena do dragão no tabloide de Ipanema
Authors: Silveira Gusmão Milene de Cássia , Brito Nunes Givanildo
Published: October 2020

Em 1970, durante a ditadura militar e a vigência do Ato Institucional nº 5, Glauber Rocha foi um ativo colaborador do jornal humorístico carioca O Pasquim. A parceria entre o cineasta baiano e os membros do tabloide foi colaborativa enquanto se viam como agentes do mesmo campo de produção simbólica –aquele em que se posicionavam os opositores do regime autoritário. Em 1974, uma atitude inesperada de Glauber provocou, no grupo do jornal, um mal-estar gerado pela desconfiança de que o cineasta teria “aderido” ao regime. A partir daí, a relação se modificou e deu lugar a um clima de tensão. Este artigo propõe, com base no arcabouço teórico sustentado por Pierre Bourdieu e em sua elaboração acerca do poder simbólico, compreender as tensões das disputas de sentido ocorridas entre Glauber Rocha e os integrantes d’O Pasquim.

Authors: Kumar Gaurav
Published: October 2020

Current world is facing the twin crisis of energy security due to depletion of non renewable energy sources
and climate change caused by green house effect. This has led the researchers to think for various
alternatives for sustainable energy production. Fuel cell technology has emerged as one of the potential
options for generating clean and efficient energy. Microbial fuel cell (MFC) is a device for the conversion of
chemical energy stored in organic compounds into electrical energy with the help of different microorganisms.
For practical application of MFC, the main factors that are considered are efficiency and low costs. Efficiency
of MFC is dependent on the effectiveness of the anode and cathode materials used in the fuel cell. In this
review paper, various developments in electrode materials for microbial fuel cells (MFC) are discussed.
Various modifications of anode and cathode materials for enhancement of power generation and
simultaneous waste water treatment are also explored.
Герой и его убийца. К иконографии Зигфрида и Хагена
Authors: Grimm Gunter E.
Published: October 2020

Зигфрид и Хаген, главные герои германского героического эпоса «Песнь о Нибелунгах», до сих пор являются узнаваемыми и культурно значимыми образами. Существуют определенные «идеальные» представления об их внешности. Эти представления связаны с давней традицией иконографического представления главных действующих лиц великого эпоса, которая была сформирована различными текстами и произведениями изобразительного искусства. В настоящей статье рассматриваются главные вехи этой иконографической традиции, начиная с периода классицизма и романтизма. Автор приводит краткую историю иллюстраций эпоса и рассматривает миры Рихарда Вагнера и его тетралогии «Кольцо Нибелунга», а также анализирует идеологические установки, стоявшие за изображением тел героев-нибелунгов в империи, Веймарской республике и Третьем рейхе. Статья насыщена иллюстрациями и образными примерами.
Per dies singulos, singulis vini potionibus sustentetur
Authors: Cavero Domínguez Gregoria
Published: October 2020

El vino forma parte de la cultura mediterránea, tanto en ámbitos religiosos como curativos y, por supuesto, es base de la dieta alimenticia. Su uso se detecta en las civilizaciones antiguas y en los libros sagrados, especialmente en la Biblia.

En el monacato visigodo aparece regulado su uso en las normativas reglares, que siguen la dinámica de normativas anteriores, especialmente la regla de san Benito y su precursora, la regla del Maestro. Se utilizaba en la dieta de los monjes, en la liturgia, en la enfermería y en la hospedería. Tal como recogen dichos textos normativos, se regulaba también la penalización por su abuso en la vida cotidiana. Sería el monacato medieval el que contribuyera decisivamente a la cultura del vino.

Журналы фантастики и приключений «Уральский следопыт» и «Искатель» как источники по истории советской интеллигенции
Authors: Komissarov Vladimir
Published: October 2020

The article examines the source value of the Soviet popular magazines “Ural Pathfinder” and “Seeker”. First of all, the author considers the social and moral-political conditions in which these magazines were created. It is emphasized that both publications appeared at about the same time, at the turn of the 1950s and 1960s, at the beginning of the so-called “Golden age” of Soviet science fiction, when a galaxy of young and active science fiction writers entered the arena of literary life. The appearance of magazines was a response to the request of Soviet readers, first of all, the intelligentsia, who needed new publications of science fiction and adventure themes. The content of these publications was also analyzed. There were differences between the magazines. The “Ural Pathfinder” was not only a literary and artistic publication, but also a popular scientific, historical, geographical, and local history publication. “Seeker” was a literary supplement to “Around the world”. Also, over time, by the 1980s, magazines acquired different ideological colors in the eyes of the Soviet intelligentsia, which, however, did not affect their popularity. At the end, the research results are summarized. In relation to the history of the intelligentsia, the source potential of magazines is limited by a number of factors. Among them, censorship restrictions and ideological divisions among the Soviet intelligentsia occupy an important place. However, the analyzed publications can serve as sources on the following aspects: the history of the Soviet press, primarily popular publications; the development of regional journalism; coverage of local history and environmental issues, issues of youth education (based on the materials of the “Ural Pathfinder”); the composition of the authors of fantasy and adventure works, their plot component.

The article deals with the «social» comedies of one of the most famous playwrights at the turn of the 1810s—1820s N. I. Khmelnitsky. The main attention is paid to the analysis of the plot features, as well as the main characteristics of the character. The comedies are considered in a chronological order: «The Talker» (1817), «Сastles in the Air » (1818), «Indecisive, or Seven Fridays in the week» (1820), «A social occasion» (1826), «Mutual trials» (1826—1829). Mostly Khmelnitsky borrowed the plots of his comedies from French authors, breathing new life into their texts. Khmelnitsky made the characters of his comedies speak using very elegant language of the upper-class society to which he himself belonged to. Working at Russian re-adaptations of French comedies, Khmelnitsky thoroughly reduced the original, removing unnecessary details and minor events, and left only the main intrigue, which is based on a vaudeville situation-misunderstandings. In this plan he put forward one character, one image, reinforcing and sometimes exaggerated his or her inherent traits according to this principle is built a comedy «The Talker», «Сastles in the Air», «Indecisive, or Seven Fridays in the week». The two remaining comedies are built differently, a love the intrigue is moved to the foreground in them.

Therefore, to encourage optimization of the banking intermediation function, maintain financial system stability, and support economic growth, an economic stimulus policy is needed as a counter cylical effect of the spread of COVID-19.
Identification, determine and control of health, safety, and environmental hazards associated with the construction projects: State-Of-The-Art
Authors: Zehro Khosro
Published: October 2020

The industry of construction is considered a strong economic factor and one of the most dangerous industries. This industry involves a wide range of activities that subject all employees from experts to non-skilled workers to intense undesired situations. Everybody is vulnerable to the hazards, risks, and dangers of this massive industry. Insufficient health and safety management, damage to construction, and constructed environments can also lead to increased accidents and injuries. Accidents not only have consequences of significant suffering and pain, but they are also marginalizing efficiency, time, productivity, negatively impact the environment and overall adding the construction costs. The results of the study will help to identify the essential factors that cause rising rates of risks in construction projects. By identifying these causes, emphasis on environmental, health and safety management will help in implementing awareness to all of those participating in the construction projects. This study demonstrates the criteria and guidelines for the identification, to determine the controlling environmental effects and health and safety hazards at construction project worksites. Furthermore, attempt to explain the techniques of decreasing hazards by the development of pre-construction planning and provide adequate controlling equipment for executing a safer, more profitable construction project from start to the end. Also, in the study suggestions are given for management that they must provide adequate health and safety training for the entire workforce, a supervised workplace by professional site safety managers and operators that will attempt to reduce health and safety hazards at sites.
Voorschrijfgedrag van tandartsen
Authors: Lamper N. , Politis C.
Published: October 2020

Het voorschrijfgedrag van tandartsen in Vlaanderen en in Nederland werd vergeleken. In verschillende apotheken in België en Nederland werden tandartsvoorschriften verzameld en geanalyseerd. Hierbij werden ook de gegevens van het rijksinstituut voor ziekte- en invaliditeitsverzekering (RIZIV) en de informatie uit een eerder onderzoek naar het voorschrijfgedrag van tandartsen in Nederland gebruikt. Uit de verkregen gegevens blijkt dat het voorschrijfgedrag in beide landen vergelijkbaar is. De top drie geneesmiddelen zijn hetzelfde (amoxicilline (met clavulaanzuur), ibuprofen, chloorhexidine) en zelfs in cijfers vergelijkbaar, evenals het aandeel aan antibiotica, antimycotica, antiseptica, mondzorggerelateerde middelen en niet-mondzorggerelateerde middelen van de onderzochte voorschriften. Hieruit blijkt dat de tandartsen in beide landen vaak hetzelfde voorschrijven. Het aandeel geneesmiddelen dat voorgeschreven werd buiten de mondzorg was erg klein. De onderzochte voorschriften bevatten geen verslavende geneesmiddelen. Het voorschrijfgedrag komt overwegend overeen met wat er in het lesprogramma aan bod komt. Dit is niet onbelangrijk aangezien de opgedane kennis de basis vormt voor het voorschrijfgedrag in dit specialistisch vak. Niettegenstaande de inhoudelijke verschillen in de wetgeving en de opleiding die er per land te vinden zijn, vertonen deze quasi geen onderscheid in het zorgaanbod of het misbruik.

Onderzoek toont het positieve effect van osteopathie bij huilbaby’s. De invloed van de geboorte op de schedel, de nek en de wervelkolom kan ervoor zorgen dat de baby vaak ernstige torsie- en compressieletsels heeft opgelopen die hem of haar pijn bezorgen. Zo kan een probleem met de schedel, een blokkade in de nek of een geïrriteerde zenuw de spijsvertering sterk beïnvloeden. De osteopaat gebruikt zachte technieken om de baby in evenwicht te brengen en overprikkeling en stress weg te nemen.
A gyermek jogainak érvényesülése a magyar polgári eljárásban

The status of children, and their role have both undergone significant changesall over the world in the past half century. The rights and vulnerabilities of the child are now the subject of increased attention in all fields, including in the framework of the judicial process. Today, the notion of child-friendly justice is not unknown in Hungary although it is yet to be decided if the proper term is child-friendly or child-centred. The means of ensuring that the rights of the child are respected are common to all procedures; however, the traumas and adverse experiences they may have found themselves subjected to are widely diverse in civil cases (usually the establishment of parental supervision), criminal cases (usually crimes where the victim is a child), and in procedures specific to the tutelage authority; so, the question deserves examination in view of such specificities. The adoption of the New York Convention was a significant milestone in the domain of the rights of the child; however, laying down the theoretical foundations was only relatively slowly followed by a dynamic of development in practice, and that took place with a wide degree of variability in different fields. In Europe — as in Hungary —, the participation of the child during the procedure meant the same as a hearing when the child is addressed questions. Today we know that Laura Lundy was right when in several of her studies she drew attention to the fact that true participation is more than simply asking the child questions. In my research, I set myself the task to create a type of catalogue for the procedural rights of the child and to answer the question: what more can we do that has not yet been done in order to avoid transforming participation in a procedure into a burden, or even worse, a trauma for the child, but instead making it the reflection of a plenitude of rights, a defining but not uncomfortable experience?

Purpose: The overall objective of this study was to examine the influence of public private partnerships on performance of projects among state corporations in Kenya.Methodology: This research study adopted a descriptive research design approach. The study preferred this method because it allowed an in-depth study of the subject. The study employed stratified random sampling technique in coming up with a sample size of 127 respondents from a total of 187 target population. Structured and semi structured questionnaires were used to collect data. Data gathered from the questionnaires administered was analyzed by the help of Ms Excel and SPSS version 22, while output was presented inform of frequency tables and charts. The study used both descriptive and inferential statistics to show the relationship between variables.Results and conclusion: The regression equation above has established that taking all factors into account (policy framework, feasibility studies, value for money and risk mitigation) constant at zero, performance of projects among state corporations will be an index of 1.967. The study found that a unit increase in feasibility studies will lead to a 0.358 increase in the performance of PPP projects among state corporations. The P-value was 0.000 and hence the relationship was significant since the p-value was lower than 0.05. The findings presented also shows that taking all other independent variables at zero, a unit increase in policy framework will lead to a 0.132 increase in the performance of PPP projects among state corporations. The P-value was 0.02 which is less 0.05 and thus the relationship was significant. In addition, the study found that a unit increase in value for money will lead to a 0.121 increase in the performance of PPP projects among state corporations. The P-value was 0.000 and thus the relationship was significant because the p-value was less than 0.05. The study also found that a unit increase in risk mitigation will lead to a 0.05 increase in performance of PPP projects among state corporations. The P-value was 0.03, which is less than 0.05 and thus the relationship was significant. The findings of the study indicated that policy framework, feasibility studies, value for money and risk mitigation have a positive relationship with performance of projects among state corporations in Kenya.Unique contribution to theory, practice and policy: The study recommended that public institutions should embrace public private partnerships so as to improve performance of projects among state corporations and further researches should to be carried out in other public institutions to find out if the same results can be obtained.

Purpose: The purpose of the study was to assess the effect of public procurement audit on performance of state corporations in Kenya.Methodology: The study employed a descriptive research design, targeting heads of procurement in state corporations. As a rule of thumb when the population is below 200, a study does a census. The researcher preferred this method because it allowed an in-depth study of the subject. Data was collected using self-administered questionnaires. Pilot study was carried out to establish the validity and reliability of the research instruments. The instruments were designed appropriately according to the study objectives. The data collected was analyzed by use of descriptive and inferential statistics. The study used multiple regression and correlation analysis to show the relationship between the dependent variable and the independent variables. The data generated was keyed in and analyzed by use of Statistical Package of Social Sciences (SPSS) version 24 to generate information which was presented using charts, frequencies and percentages.Results and conclusion: The findings of the study concluded that preparation and planning auditing, information and publicity auditing, evaluation of received tenders auditing, award and execution of contract auditing have a positive relationship with performance of state corporations in Kenya. The independent variables reported R value of 0.876 indicating that there is perfect relationship between dependent variable and independent variables’ square value of 0.768 means that 76.8% of the corresponding variation in performance of state corporations in Kenya can be explained or predicted by (preparation and planning auditing, information and publicity auditing, evaluation of tenders auditing and award and execution of contract auditing) which indicated that the model fitted the study data. The results of regression analysis revealed that there was a significant positive relationship between dependent variable and independent variable at (β = 0.761), p=0.000 <0.05).Unique contribution to theory, policy and practice: The study recommended that public institutions should embrace public procurement audit so as to improve performance and further researches should to be carried out in other public institutions to find out if the same results can be obtained.
