Predicting the Authenticity of Banknotes Using Supervised Learning
Authors: Guha Priyam , Mukherjee Abhishek , Verma Abhishek
Published: January 2021

This research paper deals with using supervised machine learning algorithms to detect authenticity of bank notes. In this research we were successful in achieving very high accuracy (of the order of 99%) by applying some data preprocessing tricks and then running the processed data
on supervised learning algorithms like SVM, Decision Trees, Logistic Regression, KNN. We then proceed to analyze the misclassified points. We examine the confusion matrix to find out which algorithms had more number of false positives and which algorithm had more number of False negatives.

EDUCAÇÃO E VALORES HUMANOS: UMA APRECIAÇÃO DOS ESTUDOS PRODUZIDOS NO BRASIL NOS ANOS 2013 a 2018
Authors: SILVA LIVIA SOUSA DA , PINHEIRO WELINGTON DA COSTA
Published: January 2021

RESUMO: O objetivo deste estudo é mapear as produções acadêmicas que se dedicaram ao estudo de valores humanos articulados ao contexto educacional e à prática escolar de professores brasileiros. Para tanto, empreendemos o levantamento de teses e dissertações no âmbito dos Programas de Pós-Graduação em Educação no Brasil, no banco de dados da Plataforma Sucupira, entre os anos de 2013 e 2018, pelo qual compusemos um corpus significativo de 24 produções. Tais achados, após inventariados, foram analisados a partir da metodologia da Análise Temática, como propõem Braun e Clarck (2009), a qual se constituiu como nosso arcabouço epistemológico. Nossos resultados organizam-se em quatro categorias: a) um esforço de conceituação dos valores humanos; b) uma persistente representação dos alunos de escola pública e de áreas periféricas como os principais sujeitos alvo de uma educação em valores humanos; c) uma centralidade no papel da família para uma educação em valores humanos; e d) da proposição religiosa e esportiva como meios eficazes de educação em valores humanos. Disto isto, concluímos que há, nas dissertações e teses publicadas no período de 2013 a 2018 aqui delimitadas, uma conceituação de valores humanos no sentido de valores morais para a formação cidadã de jovens da escola pública. Tal conceituação faz referência, eminentemente, a esses valores como uma alternativa de combate à insegurança, à indisciplina e à violência na realidade destes jovens cuja família é apontada como referência de ausência de modelos de boa conduta. Neste sentido, o papel assumido pela religiosidade e pelo esporte servem como meios e modelos para educá-los em valores humanos.
Otherness in Autism: From the Fellow Human-Being to the Other Synthesis
Authors: Di Pietro Andréa , Bastos Angélica
Published: January 2021

Abstract The present article investigates an essential question raised by the experience of the psychoanalytic clinic of autism: otherness. The goal of this research is to establish the specificity and the variety of forms of otherness in autism. From the Freudian premise of the complex of the ‘fellow human being’ (Nebenmensch) to the distinction between this and the Other as a place of language, this research examines the forms of otherness that can arise in autism, such as identified by J.-C. Maleval. They are as follow: the autistic object, the double, and the synthetic Other. For this purpose, this paper finds support on life events narrated by autistics as well as clinical fragments from the specialized literature.
Attraction to conspecifcs in Rhinella icterica and R. ornata tadpoles (Anura: Bufonidae)
Authors: Polettini Neto Alexandre , Bertoluci Jaime
Published: January 2021

Abstract: Tadpoles are able to perceive and discriminate signals from environment and they may use this ability in behaviors and ecological processes. Recognition mechanisms may be involved in schooling by means of attraction among individuals, characterizing a social process. By means of laboratory experiments the present study investigated the presence or absence of attraction to conspecifics in tadpoles of Rhinella icterica and R. ornata, two sympatric species from the Atlantic Forest of southeastern Brazil. We collected eggs of these two species in the field and reared them in laboratory according to two different methods (isolated or in groups of siblings). Tadpoles were submitted to experiments of choice between conspecifics, heterospecifics, and an empty compartment. Rhinella icterica tadpoles preferred to associate with conspecifics rather than R. ornata tadpoles, and we verified this is an innate behavior. Rhinella ornata tadpoles failed to discriminate between conspecifics and R. icterica tadpoles. When submitted to choice between a group of tadpoles of the other species and an empty compartment, R. icterica tadpoles presented random distribution, while R. ornata tadpoles preferred to associate with heterospecifics. Our results indicate R. icterica tadpoles have preference to associate with conspecifics, while R. ornata tadpoles may school indiscriminately. This study contributes for a better understanding of larval anuran social behavior.
Parcerias público-privadas de saúde e mobilidade urbana no Estado da Bahia: atual conjuntura, projetos e principais agentes envolvidos
Authors: SILVA MAINA PIRAJÁ , CARVALHO SILVANA SÁ DE , SANTANA MARIANA DE OLIVEIRA
Published: January 2021

Resumo O trabalho tem por objetivo identificar as parcerias público-privadas (PPPs) existentes no estado da Bahia; avaliar e comparar, por meio de estudos de caso das parcerias de saúde e mobilidade urbana, a efetividade delas mediante o exame da estruturação de projetos, implementação e funcionamento das concessões; e ponderar sobre os agentes públicos e privados envolvidos e suas articulações. Além disso, foi realizada uma análise dessas PPPs a fim de compreender a complexidade desses arranjos contratuais. A pesquisa utilizou uma metodologia qualitativa, de cunho exploratório e descritivo, empregando os métodos de procedimentos monográfico e comparativo. Os resultados mostraram que a Bahia tem avançado na provisão de serviços públicos e de infraestrutura por meio dessas parcerias, com projetos pioneiros que abrangem uma heterogeneidade de agentes públicos e privados, nacionais e internacionais, formando uma rede de poder dinâmica. No entanto, existem também críticas a esse tipo de parceria, em virtude dos riscos de não cumprimento de seus propósitos no sistema de governança e em longo prazo, pelas obrigações financeiras para os futuros contribuintes.
Challenges of federal coordination of Social Assistance Policy: the states’ role in financing
Authors: TEIXEIRA ISABELA DE VASCONCELOS , COSTA BRUNO LAZZAROTTI DINIZ
Published: January 2021

Resumo O artigo analisa o grau, a variação e os determinantes da corresponsabilidade do financiamento da política de assistência social pelos entes estaduais, verificando a contribuição dos mecanismos de coordenação e indução federativa, apontados por vários autores como fatores de sucesso. Com a revisão da literatura sobre federalismo e determinantes da descentralização de políticas sociais no Brasil, realizou-se uma análise documental e de dados quantitativos sobre a configuração e o cofinanciamento realizado pelos Estados, por meio dos Fundos Estaduais de Assistência Social, entre 2000 e 2018. Analisou-se ainda se os mecanismos de indução e coordenação representaram um aumento dos gastos no setor. Os resultados apontaram que, de um lado, eles foram capazes de produzir efeito no conjunto dos estados, mas, de outro, geraram grande heterogeneidade nas responsabilidades federativas entre eles.

Published: January 2021

Resumo Este estudo analisa a relação entre o risco de crédito e a eficiência das cooperativas de crédito brasileiras no período de 2008 a 2017. Utilizou-se o modelo de Data Envelopment Analysis em dois estágios para a obtenção dos escores de eficiência, com a análise de um modelo Tobit no segundo estágio. Foram consultados especialistas para a construção e a validação dos escores de eficiência, o que é uma contribuição desse estudo em relação aos demais. Constatou-se que, quanto maior o risco de crédito, menores os escores de eficiência. De igual modo, viu-se que as cooperativas de crédito que conseguem manter sua continuidade no mercado e diversificam seus produtos tiveram maiores escores de eficiência e, por consequência, geraram mais benefícios aos associados. Adicionalmente, as cooperativas devem se atentar no número de pontos de atendimentos e em períodos de recessão econômica. O aumento do número de pontos de atendimento reduz os escores de eficiência. Considerando o período de retração econômica brasileira medido no período de 2015 a 2017, verificou-se um impacto negativo nos escores de eficiência médios das cooperativas. Como limitação, os resultados são decorrentes de inputs e outputs selecionados de informações contábeis e financeiras, de modo que se sugere que novas variáveis relacionadas à dimensão social das cooperativas sejam incorporadas em outros estudos a fim de avaliar a eficiência global das cooperativas de crédito brasileiras.

“They’ll think it’s a joke, but for us, it is not!”: speeches of resistance from Brazilian gay soccer clubs
Authors: CASTRO GUSTAVO HENRIQUE CARVALHO DE , SIQUEIRA MARCUS VINICIUS SOARES
Published: January 2021

Resumo No futebol, a discriminação contra homossexuais é perpetrada pela injúria homofóbica, ato performativo de fala que silencia e afasta indivíduos gays do referido esporte, reforçando o culto à masculinidade hegemônica. Como reação, clubes de futebol gay têm emergido para proporcionar a participação dos homossexuais no esporte. Reconhecendo a relevância dessas iniciativas como práticas de resistência, neste artigo são analisados discursos de resistência à heteronormatividade sustentados por jogadores de clubes de futebol gay. Para tal, foram entrevistados 22 jogadores gays integrantes dos referidos clubes presentes em nove capitais brasileiras. Os relatos, interpretados sob a ótica da análise do discurso de Foucault, revelaram três discursos de resistência permeando tais iniciativas: ressignificação da injúria pelo humor; regras de interação; e silenciamentos e invisibilidades. Conclui-se que os discursos operam em uma lógica dual, produzindo enunciados que, embora tensionem a ordem gênero-sexualidade e o regime do armário, não impedem a persistência de enunciados que, paradoxalmente, atuam reforçando estes dispositivos heteronormativos.

THEORIZING DEMAND BY FAMILY HEALTH STRATEGY PROFESSIONALS AND USERS: SPONTANEOUS, SCHEDULED, SUPPRESSED
Authors: Chávez Giannina Marcela , Almeida Nívea Aparecida de , Nitschke Rosane Gonçalves , Viegas Selma Maria da Fonseca
Published: January 2021

ABSTRACT Objective: to understand spontaneous, scheduled and suppressed demands in the face of health needs and accessibility, from the perspective of Family Health Strategy professionals and users. Method: a qualitative study using Grounded Theory and Symbolic Interactionism, with 34 participants, 16 of whom are health professionals and 18 are users. The sources of evidence were open, intensive and individual interviews and memos. Data collection occurred between October/2016 to May/2017. Data analysis took place in interdependent steps: open, axial, selective coding, for the process. Results: thirty-two in vivo codes were indicated that represent the statement and meanings of the research participants regarding demand at Family Health Strategy, compiled in three theoretical codes that originated the central category “The Theory of Demand at Family Health Strategy: spontaneous, scheduled or suppressed?”. Spontaneous demand turns to complaints and illness, in daily appointments without previous scheduling, with restricted hours and as a means of accessing the health service. Scheduled demand is established in scheduling medical appointments for specific groups. Suppressed demand, more and more frequent in the daily routine of health services, is associated with the lack of access and resolution. Conclusion: health demands are configured in a space of lack of access and accessibility, denoting the main problem experienced by FHS users and professionals.

ABSTRACT Objective: reveal experiences of cancer patients undergoing neurotoxic chemotherapy. Method: phenomenology-based, qualitative study, carried out with nine adult patients in antineoplastic neurotoxic treatment, interviewed in June and July 2018. The testimonies were analyzed using an empirical comprehensive model. Results: the following categories were delineated: nerves on edge: perception of limitations caused by neuropathic pain induced by chemotherapy; chemotherapy drains me of energy; the suffering of starting again; the suffering of enduring it; alone in a desert, I heard the cry of my silence; chemotherapy: an infusion of hope; and there is no suffering on earth that heaven cannot heal. Conclusion: the study presented various meanings of suffering that emerge from experiences with neurotoxic treatment and found that many dimensions of suffering interpenetrate, making it impossible to disassociate them.

Published: January 2021

Resumo: Em 1987, constituiu-se no Brasil um programa governamental com a finalidade de motivar a adequação do ensino da Oncologia nas escolas médicas às necessidades da população e dos serviços de saúde, incluindo-se a produção de materiais educativos que pudessem viabilizar uma articulação maior do ensino da Oncologia entre as disciplinas e departamentos e com os serviços de saúde. O Programa de Oncologia (Pró-Onco), do Ministério da Saúde, e o Núcleo de Tecnologia Educacional para a Saúde (Nutes), da Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro (UFRJ), através do Projeto de Integração Docente-Assistencial na Área do Câncer (PIDAAC), coordenaram a elaboração dos materiais, de autoria coletiva de 65 professores universitários e profissionais de serviços, oriundos de 32 escolas médicas e 7 instituições assistenciais representativas de todas as regiões do País. Essa colaboração foi feita a partir de uma concepção integralizadora das várias áreas do conhecimento médico relacionadas com o controle do câncer, em uma proposta de ensino integrado, multidisciplinar, que enfatiza os aspectos relacionados com a prevenção e o diagnóstico precoce dos cânceres prevalentes do Brasil. Todas as etapas do projeto se desenvolveram coletivamente e contaram com a coordenação integrado do Pró-Onco e do Nutes, sendo que a avaliação sempre se constituiu em um componente privilegiado do mesmo. A implantação regional do PIDAAC integrou 49 escolas médicas brasileiras (sendo 35 delas instituições públicas), envolvendo 59 docentes e 5 profissionais de serviços, entre as quais se distribuíram 8 .880 livros e 36 cópias dos programas audiovisuais. As etapas de desenvolvimento do projeto provocaram, progressivamente, uma mudanças substancial nos currículos, verificando-se um aumento de 305,2% das atividades de ensino da Oncologia nas escolas médicas brasileiras.

Abstract: The objective of this work was to evaluate the agro-economic efficiency of immature cowpea-radish intercropping systems in a semiarid environment in Brazil. The experiments were carried out in two cropping seasons, in a randomized complete block design with four replicates. The treatments consisted of a 4x2 factorial arrangement for the combination of four cowpea (Vigna unguiculata) cultivars (BRS Tumucumaque, BRS Cauamé, BRS Guariba, and BRS Itaim) and two radish (Raphanus sativus) cultivars (Crimson Gigante and Zapp). The agro-economic indices - system productivity index (SPI), land equivalent coefficient (LEC), and monetary equivalent ratio (MER) - were obtained using single plots of each cultivar in each block. 'BRS Tumucumaque' and 'BRS Guariba' showed the highest productivity of immature cowpea pods, and 'Crimson Gigante' showed the highest yield of marketable radish roots. The cultivation of either 'BRS Tumucumaque' or 'BRS Guariba' cowpea with 'Crimson Gigante' radish provides a greater agro-economy efficiency and sustainability for immature cowpea-radish intercropping.

Authors: Castilhos Rodolfo Vargas , Ribeiro Leandro do Prado , Carvalho Gabriel de
Published: January 2021

Abstract: The objective of this work was to evaluate the circadian feeding rhythm of the green-belly stink bug (Dichelops melacanthus) on corn (Zea mays), and to correlate it with meteorological parameters. The experiments were conducted in corn fields in the first (summer) and second (fall) crop seasons, in the municipality of Chapecó, in the state of Santa Catarina, Brazil. Plants in the V3 and V5 stages were covered with cages and infested with adults of D. melacanthus. After 24 hours of acclimation, the number of insects feeding on the plant stem was counted every three hours (at 6:00, 9:00, 12:00, 15:00, 18:00, 21:00, and 0:00 h). At night, a red led flashlight was used to visualize the insects without interfering with their behavior. Meteorological parameters were monitored and correlated to the number of insects feeding on the plants. In the first and second crop seasons, the number of insects feeding on the corn stem differed among evaluation times, with peak in the afternoon, in the evening, and at night. Few insects were found feeding at 6:00 and 9:00 h. There was a positive correlation between air temperature and feeding in both seasons. In milder temperature regions, the preferred feeding time of D. melacanthus on corn is during the afternoon, evening, and night hours, which should be taken into account for a precise management of this insect.
Tribological properties of SS 304 and Ti6Al4V using four reciprocating geometries
Authors: Nayak Chinmayee , Kundu Rishabh , Pandey Rajneesh , Balani Kantesh
Published: January 2021

An automated bio-tribometer with four reciprocating geometries – linear, circle, square and eight/butterfly – was used to study the tribological properties of stainless steel (SS) 304 and the titanium–6 wt.% aluminium (Al)–4 wt.% vanadium (V) (Ti6Al4V) alloy under dry conditions and when lubricated with simulated body fluid (SBF) against a zirconia pin as the counterbody. The sliding speed, distance and normal load were kept constant, and the effect of the various geometries on the coefficient of friction (CoF) and wear was studied. Theoretical calculations showed a variation of CoF as linear < circle < eight/butterfly < square, and the experimental data also showed similar CoF in all the geometries except for the linear profile. The CoF was primarily controlled by the shear forces exhibited by each geometry. The CoF, as well as wear, decreased in magnitude (∼20%) under SBF due to the formation of a lubricant film on the contact surface. The developed shear stresses, simulated by finite-element analysis, showed an increase with the increased complexity of traverse geometries due to the concomitant actions of rapid changes in the direction of motion and dynamic friction. However, the trend in variation remained intact and was controlled by the shear forces exhibited by each geometry.

SDS-PAGE gel electrophoresis protocol for analyzing samples from plant leaf tissue via immunofluorescence. In this protocol no Coomassie blue is added to samples, the reason is that this interferes with the fluorescent signal during immunoblot. Instead, samples have already been prepared in Laemmli buffer (minus coomassie, protein extraction procedure), the leading edge of samples can be visualized due to the presence of chlorophyll. Note - When using 15 well, 0.75 mm comb, try to limit the volume loaded to 10 μL to minimize the risk of spillover of protein between wells. - Ensure to wipe the tip on the rim of the sample tube to remove the sample stuck to theoutside of the tip.

Members of the Polish Language Council on the Problems of Linguistic Diversity and Linguistic Inclusion in Poland
Authors: Wallas Tadeusz , Hordecki Bartosz
Published: January 2021

The last couple of decades have brought a significant increase in personal movement from and to Poland. In consequence, it is very probable that the issues of linguistic diversity and linguistic inclusion more and more frequently will become subjects of multi-level and multi-institutional discussion reshaping the Polish public sphere. It is a matter of consideration which institutions will take leading positions in this debate, formulating main narratives and polemics. However, answering its advisory and opinion-making responsibilities, the Polish Language Council may be expected as one among the crucial actors in this discourse. The article presents pivotal attitudes of the Council’s members referring to the problem of linguistic diversity and linguistic inclusion in Poland. The presentation of the sources is combined with endeavours to answer the question: Do these materials allow considering the Council as a strong candidate for an essential designer of incoming public debate on linguistic diversity and linguistic inclusion in Poland? The research is conducted concerning the main assumptions of Joshua Fishman’s (1997) sociology of language and Harold Schiffman’s (2006) analysis of language policies as parts of linguistic cultures. Moreover, the methodological foundation of the text is supported by a general theoretical framework of historical institutionalism, and finally by Peter M. Haas’s conceptualisation of 'epistemic community.'
THE RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN FEARS, PHOBIAS, ANXIETY ON SELF-IDENTITY
Authors: Terletska Larysa
Published: January 2021

According to the aim (to identify the features of the connection of fears, phobias, anxiety with self-esteem of adolescence), an empirical study was conducted, in which the respondents were representatives of school and student youth, namely 120 people: 60 students of 10-11 grades (15-17 years) of Vyshhorod comprehensive school No2 and No3. This sample was chosen not by chance. After all, it is in adolescence is the active development and formation of all components of self-awareness, including self-esteem. According to the age periodization of M. Savchyn and L. Vasylenko, adolescence is divided into two groups: representatives of early youth (15-18 years) and late youth (18-23 years) or senior school and student age.

The presented study covers only certain aspects of such a complex phenomenon as self-assessment. As its subject was the socio- psychological features of self-attitude of adolescents and young people, other social and age categories, as well as socio-psychological factors influencing the features of self-attitude, in particular: financial status, degree of self-realization and more.

The study of this problem requires further comprehensive research, because adequate positive self-attitude is the most optimal for the formation and development of personality, determines the achievement of its inner harmony.

In our further study of self-assessment, a promising direction, in our opinion, is to clarify the features of this phenomenon in other age groups. Consideration of the influence of gender on the peculiarities of self-assessment, in this perspective, will be useful in both theoretical and practical aspects.
PUBLIC ATTITUDES TOWARD EDUCATIONAL REFORMS: A STUDY OF THE PROBLEM OF OPEN-MINDEDNESS
Authors: Chunikhina Svіtlana
Published: January 2021

The article reviews the problem of contradictory public attitude to educational reforms in connection with the phenomenon of open- mindedness. Based on the review of case studies, two major areas of conceptualization of openness of judgments have been identified. The first direction studies the openness of judgments in the context of interpersonal interaction, as a lack of prejudice against members of groups that are interpreted as "others", willingness to tolerate "otherness" and productively interact with other people in conflict of opinions and positions. In the second direction, openness of judgment is seen primarily as a cognitive attitude to the perception of new ideas, tolerance of diversity of opinion and willingness to think outside the box ("out of box"). A sample of 230 respondents allowed to examine the relationship between cognitive (dogmatism) and personal (openness to new experiences) aspects of openness of judgment with a subjective attitude to educational reforms. Dogmatism is related to the tough judgments about educational reforms. More dogmatic respondents tend to have negative evaluations of reforms, less dogmatic ones are more likely to have no established evaluative judgments. Openness to new experiences determines the modality of assessments of educational reforms: more "open" respondents tend to be more positive about the changes that occur as a result of reforms than less "open" ones, which are characterized by a certain pessimism. It has been found that dogmatism and openness to new experiences manifest themselves in different ways in relation to educational reforms among professionals engaged in the field of education and non-professionally related to the education of respondents.
THE PSYCHOLOGICAL FACTORS OF DISABLED STUDENTS' PSYCHOLOGICAL HARDINESS
Authors: Kuprieieva Olga
Published: January 2021

The article presents the empirical study on the psychological factors of disabled students' psychological hardiness. Studying in integrated groups is a challenge of particular difficulty for disabled students who dare to exercise their rights to higher education and equal opportunities proposed by the inclusive environment, which requires from them much more efforts than those in situations of chronic illness, as well as activation of their personal resources. Therefore, it is important to study psychological hardiness as a general indicator of an individual's mental health, determining their ability to overcome life difficulties. The aim is to study the psychological characteristics, factors and predictors that determine disabled students' psychological hardiness. Methods. Factor analysis allowed us to determine the parameters of psychological hardiness for disabled students having different intensity of its components. According to the performed regression analysis, the indicators of disabled students' psychological hardiness having low and medium-high general hardiness are predicted. Results and conclusions. The factor structure of psychological hardiness for disabled students having low intensity of its components includes the following parameters: time perspective; active coping strategies; self-attitude, with the focus on assessment of them from others and an expected positive attitude of others; the need to actualize one's own Self. The predictors determining these respondents' psychological hardiness are self-esteem as a source of one's own strength, the search for social support as a strategy for active overcoming of difficulties, and self-actualization as a need for self-development and self-realization. The factor structure of psychological hardiness for disabled students having medium-high intensity of its components includes the following parameters: meaningful life orientations as a result of existing conscious goals and meanings for their lives; good self-attitude as a determinant of an individual's internal activity, time perspective as a holistic self-image in time; the individual's basic beliefs as their implicit ideas about the world around, other people, themselves and relationships with the world; values as an ability to be guided in interaction with the world around by the values of self-actualization. Predictors that determine these respondents' psychological hardiness are: the future (as a parameter of an individual's time perspective) and the values of self-actualization. The personality parameters revealed at our empirical research are the resources of disabled students' psychological hardiness and the condition of their successful self-realization.
A Multidimension Source Model for Generating Broadband Ground Motions with Deterministic 3D Numerical Simulations
Authors: Wang Xiang-Chao , Wang Jin-Ting , Zhang Lei , Li Shuai , Zhang Chu-Han
Published: January 2021

A multidimension source model for generating broadband ground motions with deterministic 3D numerical simulations is proposed in this article. In this model, the source is composed of several superimposed layers, and the total seismic moment is assigned to these layers in different proportions. Each layer exactly fills up the seismic fault and is uniformly divided into subsources with size decreased progressively to reflect different levels of rupture details. Hence, the proposed multidimension source model may consider the realistic rupture process of an earthquake, that is, the spatial and temporal heterogeneity of source parameters, and generate broadband ground motions. To verify this source model, the 1994 Northridge earthquake is simulated with four multidimension source models, based on different source inversion results. The amplitudes, durations, and spectral characteristics of the observed ground motions of the 1994 Northridge earthquake are respectably reproduced in a range of frequencies up to 5 Hz. In addition, a scenario earthquake is also simulated with four multidimension source models, with different synthetic rupture process. The simulated ground motions of the scenario earthquake are generally in good agreement with the Next Generation Attenuation-West 2 ground-motion prediction equations. This demonstrates that it is promising to simulate realistic broadband ground motions of strong earthquakes with a proper source description and realistic Earth models.

Rapid information on fault rupture geometry is critically important to assess damage and fatalities in large earthquakes and is strongly needed to coordinate rapid rescue efforts if and where necessary. Many countries around the world, however, cannot afford to operate dense seismic networks required to rapidly determine rupture geometry. In this feasibility study, we investigate if crowd-sourced felt intensity reports can be used to close this information gap and enable determination of the orientation and spatial extent of fault ruptures. We apply the Finite-Fault Rupture Detector (FinDer) algorithm to felt intensity reports collected by the European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC). We develop an empirical relationship between the azimuthal gap between felt reports and FinDer performance for automated event selection. This gives us a dataset of 36 global earthquakes (6.0≤M≤7.3) between 2014 and 2020. We find that the resulting FinDer line-source models are generally consistent with the spatially dependent intensity patterns described by the felt reports, and in many earthquakes achieve a good agreement with the finite-source models published in the literature: for 50% of events the difference in strike is less than 30°, and for 75% less than 55°. FinDer line-source models could be calculated automatically for global earthquakes (M≥6) within 10–30 min after their occurrence, provided a sufficient number of felt reports were available. However, our proposed method not only provides faster results, but also helps to fill a general information gap for many earthquakes around the world, for which rupture geometry information is currently unavailable.
İsmayıl Hakkı Baltacıoğlu’nun İletişim Araştırmalarına Katkıları

Bu çalışma, erken Cumhuriyet dönemi entelektüellerinden İsmayıl Hakkı Baltacıoğlu’nun Türkiye’de iletişimin henüz müstakil bir araştırma alanı olarak tanımlanmadığı dönemde yaptığı çalışmalarıyla, iletişim araştırmalarına sunduğu katkıyı konu edinmektedir. Cumhuriyet’in ilk dönemlerinde toplumbilim alanında çalışmalar yapan pek çok erken dönem entellektüel gibi İsmayıl Hakkı Baltacıoğlu’da kendi uzmanlık alanında düşüncelerini ortaya koyarken iletişim bilimine ve iletişim araçlarına dair yol açıcı fikirler sunmuştur. Baltacıoğlu, yeni toplumun yaratılmasında ananeci ve kültürcü modernleşme üzerinde durmuştur. Kültürcü modernleşmenin özünü medeniyet ve kültür ikiliğiyle açıklamıştır. Toplumun medenileşmesinde kitle iletişim araçlarının kurucu rol oynadığından bahsetmiştir. Kültür üzerine detaylı çalışmalar yapmış, kültürün hızla üretilip tüketilerek yozlaşmasını ‘değer anarşisi’ kavramıyla tanımlamıştır. ‘Değer anarşisi’nin oluşma nedenleri arasına gazete, dergi gibi iletişim araçlarını da dâhil etmiştir. Gazetenin, haber yanında fikirleri de aktarması nedeniyle tarafsız olamayacağından bahsetmiştir. Kültürcü fikirleri içinde dil meselesine önem vermiş, bu noktada gazetelerin okunma oranlarının arttırılabilmesi için, kullandıkları dilin öz Türkçe olması gerektiğini vurgulamıştır. Eğitimci perspektifinden bakarak, gazetelerin saygınlığını sürdürebilmeleri için çalışanlarının eğitimli olması gerektiğine değinmiştir. Türk basın tarihini ‘öğretici, hava atma ve eksperler’ olarak üç döneme ayırmıştır. Ananeci toplum anlayıştan yola çıkarak, folklorun korunması ve geliştirilmesinde yerel basını önemli bir unsur olarak görmüş

ve bu gazeteleri ‘il gazeteleri’ olarak tanımlamıştır. Toplumda süreli yayınının mutlaka olması gerektiğini belirtmiştir. Dergiyi, konulara derinlemesine yoğunlaşmadığı için kitaptan ve günceli kovalamadığı için de gazeteden ayırmıştır. Yukarıda bahsedilen düşüncelerden yola çıkarak, araştırmada, semptomal okumayla İsmayıl Hakkı Baltacıoğlu’nun iletişim bilimlerine katkıları, ortaya koyulmaya çalışılmıştır.

Published: January 2021

The objective of the article is to systematize the scientific knowledge produced about black people in the seven national journals linked to the eleven Postgraduate Programs with a basic area in Tourism in order to discuss whether blacks are the subject of tourism studies in Brazil. The work is a descriptive and bibliographic research. To constitute the corpus to be analyzed, a search was carried out on the magazines' website with relevant keywords to the theme, which led to a selection of eight articles and a subsequent evaluation reduced to five, which allows concluding that, of the 2.618 articles that make up the collection of magazines, only 0.19% analyze black people and tourism. The papers found discussed quilombos (2), racism (1) and sexualization of black women (2). The results reveal that the theme is marginal and that the subject is invisible in the tourism academy in Brazil.

Tourism is an important economic sector. Understanding people's travel intentions can be useful for planning destinations, meeting demand as well as possible. In this sense, this study aims to assess what would influence the intention to go to the Diamantina Vesperata, in the State of Minas Gerais [Brazil], using the Theory of Planned Behavior for this purpose, with the inclusion of the constructs past behavior and familiarity. The methodology included bibliographic research for questionnaire elaboration, followed by quantitative research with 125 respondents, 101 of which are valid. The results showed relevance in the inclusion of the new constructs, which had a positive effect on the intention to attend the event. On the other hand, the attitude and the subjective norm did not present significant effects on the intention, corroborating with studies that deal with the complexity of the choice of tourist destination and the difficulty of forecasting the intention, as in other more common behaviors.

Authors: Moritz Britta
Published: January 2021

Leseverstehen ist ein komplexer Prozess, bei dem das Medium Text und dessen Rezipient in wechselseitiger Abhängigkeit stehen. Wichtig für das Verstehen ist die Erfassung von Kohärenzrelationen, die auf Textebene expliziert markiert oder implizit vorhanden sein können. Der Artikel stellt eine empirische Studie vor, die die Auswirkung der Markierung der Kohärenzrelationen auf das Leseverstehen von Viert- und Sechstklässlern untersucht. Das verwendete Textmaterial sind Sachtexte. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass nur potentiell bessere Leser zum Teil von der expliziten Markierung profitieren, während bei den schwächeren Lesern keine signifikante Auswirkung aufgetreten ist.
