The Impact of Sports Personalities on Youth Development
Authors: Arshpreet
Published: November 2024

This paper examines the significant influence of sports personalities on youth development, exploring how athletes serve as role models and their impact on the physical, social, and psychological growth of young individuals. Sports figures often embody values such as dedication, perseverance, and teamwork, which can inspire youth to adopt similar traits in their own lives. Through qualitative and quantitative analyses, this study highlights the ways in which athletes’ endorsements, community involvement, and media presence shape youth perceptions of success, health, and social responsibility. Furthermore, it investigates the potential risks associated with idolizing sports figures, including the pressure to conform to unrealistic standards. Ultimately, the findings underscore the dual nature of sports personalities as both catalysts for positive youth development and sources of challenges, calling for a balanced approach to harnessing their influence effectively.

García Nuño, Alfonso. La coactualidad de Zubiri ante la conciencia interna de Brentano. Entre Psychologie vom empirischen Standpunkt (Psicología desde el punto de vista empírico), de Franz Brentano, e Inteligencia y realidad, de Xavier Zubiri, pasó poco más de un siglo. Y aunque este último conoce bien la obra del primero, aquél no se enfrentó explícitamente con éste en el problema clásico de la conscientia. En el presente artículo abordaré las posturas de ambos filósofos con el objetivo de contrastarlas.
As eleições presidenciais de 1958 em Portugal - a cobertura da campanha pelos jornais República, Diário de Lisboa e Novidades
Authors: Campos Mocito Sérgio Luís
Published: November 2024

Introdução: As eleições presidenciais de 1958 ocuparam uma posição de destaque no cenário político português, motivadas pela firme decisão de Humberto Delgado de continuar na disputa eleitoral, desafiando assim os padrões estabelecidos nas eleições anteriores. Metodologia: Para compreender o papel da imprensa na cobertura dessas eleições, foram analisadas qualitativa e quantitativamente cerca de 83 edições de periódicos, abrangendo o período da campanha eleitoral. Os jornais República e Diário de Lisboa representaram a oposição ao Estado Novo, enquanto o jornal Novidades permaneceu alinhado com o regime. Resultados: A análise revelou uma acentuada disparidade no tratamento dos jornais pelos censores, que frequentemente restringiam os textos publicados no República e no Diário de Lisboa. Apesar disso, esses jornais conseguiram promover a campanha eleitoral em favor da oposição, com o República se destacando como o principal veículo de apoio aos opositores. Por outro lado, o Novidades foi o mais prolífico na difusão de conteúdos favoráveis ao Estado Novo. Discussão: Observou-se que os oposicionistas, predominantemente intelectuais de alta qualificação acadêmica, criticaram o regime e seu candidato, enquanto a União Nacional respondeu com comunicados que atacavam a oposição e exaltavam as realizações do Estado Novo. Conclusões: A imprensa desempenhou um papel crucial na construção das narrativas políticas, com o República e o Diário de Lisboa promovendo vozes dissonantes e o Novidades reforçando a hegemonia discursiva do Estado Novo, refletindo as tensões da época.

Bu çalışma pandemi döneminde prematüre bebeklerin annelerinin psikolojik uyum süreçlerini etkileyen depresyon, stres ve kaygı düzeylerini belirlemeyi ve bu düzeyleri etkileyen etmenlerin ilişkisini nitel olarak incelemeyi amaçlamaktadır. Çalışma örneklemi, Yenidoğan Yoğun Bakım Ünitesinde prematürite nedeniyle yatan bebeklerin annelerinden oluşmaktadır. Bu nitel çalışmanın örneklemi 11 kişiden oluşmaktadır. Annelerin depresyon, stres ve kaygı belirti şiddetleri Depresyon Anksiyete Stres Ölçeği-Kısa Formu kullanılarak belirlenmiştir. Araştırmacılar tarafından oluşturulan yarı-yapılandırılmış görüşme formundan elde edilen prematüre bebeklerin annelerinin depresyon, stres ve kaygı düzeyleriyle ilişkili olguları inceleyen nitel veriler betimsel analiz yöntemi kullanılarak MAXQDA aracılığı ile analiz edilmiştir. Çalışmaya katılan sekiz annenin depresyon, stres ve kaygı boyutlarının en az birinde kesme puanının üzerinde puan aldıkları görülmüştür. Bebeğin erken doğmasıyla ilgili deneyimler, bebeğin erken doğmasına ilişkin duygular, depresyon, stres ve kaygıyla ilişkili deneyimler, erken doğumun anne-bebek ilişkisine yansımaları, erken doğumun aile ilişkilerine yansıması, sağlık hizmetleri hakkındaki deneyimler ve süreçte baş etmeyi kolaylaştıran etmenler değerlendirilmiştir. Yapılan analiz sonucundan bu dönem için kritik bulunan anne-bebek ilişkisine dair ‘boş beşik, ‘yetersizlik’, ‘temas ve erişim azlığı’, ‘bağ hissedememe’ temalarının ön plana çıktığı görülmektedir. Bu temalara ek olarak diğer temalar, pandemi döneminde erken doğumun anneler üzerindeki etkilerini ve bu sürecin annelerin duygusal deneyimleri ve aile ilişkileri üzerinde nasıl yansımalar yarattığı noktasında yol göstericidir. Bu çalışmanın verileri kapsamında pandemi ek bir risk faktörü bağlamında değerlendirildiğinde, baba katılımının ve anne-bebek ilişkisinin desteklenmesinin kritik bir koruyucu faktör olabileceği düşünülmektedir.

Published: November 2024

Bu çalışma; 2011 yılı Van Depremi sonrası geçici barınma alanlarında kalan kadınların yaşadıkları zorlukları, gündelik yaşamlarını ve bu gündelik yaşamların değişimini/dönüşümünü konu edinmektedir. Deprem sonrası kadınların değişen ve dönüşen yaşamlarını anlamak, nasıl ve ne tür sorunlar yaşadıklarını tespit etmek amacından hareketle çalışmada yorumcu-inşacı yaklaşım esas alınmıştır. Geçici barınma alanlarındaki fiziki ve mekânsal özellikler Lefebvre ve Harvey’in mekânsal kuramlarından, gündelik yaşamının şekillenmesi ve değişimi/dönüşümü ise Berger ve Luckmann’ın toplumsal gerçekliğin inşası yaklaşımından faydalanılmıştır. Çalışmada amaçsal olarak belirlenmiş ve kartopu yöntemi ile seçilmiş 32 kadınla derinlemesine görüşme (mülakat) yapılmıştır. Derinlemesine görüşmelerden elde edilen veriler manuel olarak 5 grupta temalaştırılmış (geçici barınma alanlarının fiziki özellikleri, yaşadıkları korkular, kadının bakım ve iş yükünün artması, yardım ve destek konusunda dayanışma ve gerginlik, deprem sonrası kadının değişen gündelik yaşamı ve sosyal ilişkileri) ve bu temalar çerçevesinde analiz edilmiştir. Çalışmanın bulgularına göre kadınlar; geçici barınma alanlarındaki fiziki ve mekânsal koşullardan, çeşitli korkulardan, çadır içi yaşlı-engelli-çocuk ve hasta kişilerin bakımından, yardım almada kadın olmaktan kaynaklı çeşitli sıkıntılar yaşamışlardır. Bununla birlikte deprem sonrası gündelik yaşam ve sosyal ilişkilerine dair değişim ve dönüşümler neticesinde iş yüklerinin artması, toplumsal cinsiyet rollerine ilişkin kalıp yargılar, hırsızlık, taciz kaynaklı korkular vb. gibi durumların kadınların yaşamında ciddi zorluklara sebep olduğu sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Tespit edilen zorluklar ve sıkıntılardan hareketle kadınların deprem gibi afetler sonrasında yaşamlarının iyileştirilmesine, korkularının giderilmesine ve iş yüklerinin azaltılmasına dair öneriler sunulmuştur.
Millî Mücadele Yılları Cephe Gerisinde Ulusal Bilinç ve Karşıtlığı: Batı Cephesinde Muhtarlar ve İmamlar
Authors: Çankaya Özlem
Published: November 2024

Millî Mücadele yılları, siyasî, askerî ve sosyal yönüyle defalarca ele alınsa da bu çalışmalarda insan teması arka planda kalmıştır. Halbuki, bir savaş içerisinde olmak ve bu savaşın kurtuluş savaşı mahiyetinde olması insan hikâyesini anlamlı kılar. Dolayısıyla topyekûn savaşın yegâne unsuru her bir bireyin kendisidir. Mütareke dönemi ve Millî Mücadele yılları boyunca insanlar, kurtuluşu istemekte ancak kurtuluş yolunu hangi bayrağın peşinden giderek bulacağını bilmemekteydi. İşte Millî Mücadele yılları anlatılarını besleyen bu tereddüt ve çelişkiler, trajik olduğu kadar çok katmanlıdır. Bu katmanlı yapı “Savaş ve Toplum” perspektide ele alındığında karşımıza yeni kavramları getirmiştir. Modern bir kavram olan topyekûn seferberliğin etki ve derinliği daha önce hiç görülmediği kadar gündelik hayatla yoğruluyordu. Sıradan insanın savaş teamülü, kahraman yarattığı kadar ikna, rıza, inanç ve direnç gibi olumsuz çağrışımları da kapsamaktadır. Artık sıradan insan, meçhul olmaktan çıkarak kahramanlık sıfatlarını da marifet saymadan bazen fedakârlık, bazen korku gibi birbiriyle çelişir rollerin aktörü haline gelmişti. Özellikle Cihan Harbinin bu düzlemde yarattığı kimlik kargaşası ve ev cephesinin gündelik boyutunun fiziksel mekanlarla sınırlanamayacak kadar katmanlı olması, Zafer Toprak’ın ifadesiyle “içtimai vicdanları” şekillendirip sıradan kişi üzerinde seferberlik tasavvuru yaratmıştı. Bu temsilden yola çıkarak halkın seferberlik karşısında tavrını oluşturup yönünü belirleyen unsurlardan olan muhtar ve imam gibi devlet görevlilerinin yarattığı yerel düzeydeki ulusal bilinç ve karşıtlığı bu makalenin konusudur. Dolayısıyla, seferberliği bu sefer devlet gözüyle değil “aşağıdan tarih” bakış açısıyla devlet-toplum ilişkisinin önemli maddi dinamiklerinden olan muhtar ve imam gibi yerel unsurlar üzerinden ev cephesinde seferberliğe olan bireysel ve kolektif etkileri bağlamında başta daha önce yapılmış sözlü tarih anlatıları olmak üzere dilekçe, mahkeme zabıtları ve doğrudan dönem insanıyla diyaloğa girmemizi sağlayacak edebi metinler yoluyla iletişim kurmak dönemi algıladığımız perspektifi güçlendirir. Böylece mikro hikâyelerle ele alınan sıradan insanın makro düzeyde panoraması çizilecektir.

ANALYSING DETERMINANTS OF HOUSEHOLD BROILER CHICKEN MEAT PURCHASES AMIDST SOCIAL-MEDIA MISINFORMATION: A TOBIT STUDY
Authors: G KATHIRAVAN
Published: November 2024

The Indian poultry sector significantly boosts GDP. It is grown at 8-10% annually, reaching $22.97 billion in 2022, expected to hit $41.94 billion (10.18% CAGR) from 2023 to 2028. Social media misinformation adversely affected the broiler sector, lowering prices and consumption. Using the Tobit Model, this study analysed Indian households' broiler chicken purchases during misinformation. Data on demographics, socioeconomics, and monthly consumption of chicken meat was collected from 503 respondents and analysed. On average, men favoured broiler chicken, while women preferred native chicken. The potential impact of social media misinformation on women's choices and the influence on households with senior citizens, which consumed significantly less quantity compared to their counterparts, remained intriguing. Unexpectedly, households with better incomes and more education purchased less broiler meat. Marital status, place of residence, cohabitation, and presence of children did not significantly affect the outcome. Muslim families purchased more broiler chicken meat, and larger households consumed more. Consumption frequency was important, with daily and alternate-day customers making larger purchases. Purchases of broiler meat were negatively impacted by the consumption of country chicken. Amidst social media misinformation, while a slight adverse impact on household broiler consumption may have occurred, it's notable that a significant portion of households (97.20%) continued to purchase broiler chicken meat, exhibiting the potential effectiveness of media-driven interventions in mitigating the impact of misinformation and reiterated the persistent favourability for broiler chicken as a dietary protein choice within the larger consumer demographic. The Indian poultry industry is vital for food security and economic growth, making it imperative to address social media-induced panic. Transparency, trust, and accurate information transmission are essential. In order to effectively handle market challenges, stakeholders need to take into account factors like demography and dietary preferences that impact consumer behaviour.
Reliability of meta-analyses in ecology and evolution: (mostly) good news from a case study on sexual signals
Authors: Pollo Pietro , Lagisz Malgorzata , Macedo-Rego Renato , Mizuno Ayumi , Yang Yefeng , Nakagawa Shinichi
Published: November 2024

Meta-analyses are powerful synthesis tools that are popular in ecology and evolution due to the rapidly growing literature of this field. Although the usefulness of meta-analyses depends on their reliability, such as the precision of individual and mean effect sizes, attempts to reproduce meta-analyses’ results remain rare in ecology and evolution. Here, we assess the reliability of 41 meta-analyses on sexual signals by evaluating the replicability and reproducibility of their results. We attempted to (1) replicate meta-analyses’ mean effect sizes using the datasets they provided, (2) replicate meta-analyses’ effect sizes by re-extracting 5,703 effect sizes from 246 empirical studies they used as sources, (3) assess the extent of relevant data missed by original meta-analyses, and (4) reproduce meta-analyses’ mean effect sizes after incorporating re-extracted and relevant missing data. We found many discrepancies between meta-analyses’ reported results and those generated by our analyses for all replicability and reproducibility attempts. Nonetheless, we argue that the meta-analyses we evaluated are largely reproducible because the differences we found were small in magnitude, leaving the original interpretation of these meta-analyses’ results unchanged. Still, we highlight issues we observed in these meta-analyses that affected their reliability, providing recommendations to ameliorate them.

Мета дослідження – аналіз діяльності архітекторів міста Одеси – членів Одеського відділення Імператорського Російського технічного товариства з проєктування та будівництва будинку відділення, долі й місця цієї споруди в культурному просторі великого міста. Методологія дослідження спирається на принципи історизму, системності, авторської об’єктивності. Використано загальнонаукові (аналізу і синтезу) та загальноісторичні (історико-генетичний, історико-системний) методи дослідження. Результати дослідження. Встановлено, що ідея створення та проєктування будинку Одеського відділення ІРТТ, відомого ще як «Масонський дім» в Одесі, належала членам архітектурного відділу ОВІРТТ. Увесь хід подій упродовж восьми років, пов’язаних з його проєктуванням, пошуком коштів на будівництво, створенням інтер’єру свідчить про відповідальність, творчу ініціативу та результати діяльності справжніх фахівців своєї справи. Будинок ОВІРТТ тривалий час був окрасою міста Одеси та об’єктом її культурної спадщини, знаходився за адресою вул. Княжа, 1а. Висновки. Пореформений період другої половини ХІХ ст. сприяв розвитку творчої ініціативи інженерів, архітекторів, будівельників, промисловців та підприємців міст Півдня України. Створення Одеського відділення ІРТТ, багатогранна і різнопланова діяльність усіх його 9 відділів створювала наукову та професійно-технічну основу модернізаційним процесам Півдня України. Творча ініціатива членів ОВІРТТ та сміливі рішення його архітектурного та будівельного відділів сприяли формуванню архітектурного обліку Одеси. Однією з окрас міста став створений ними будинок ОВІРТТ, до будівництва та оздоблення якого було залучено кращих фахівців міста. Архітектурна спадщина таких великих міст як Одеса охоплює пам’ятники і комплекси, які мають видатну універсальну цінність з точки зору історії, культури та архітектури, а також зберігає дух епохи та демонструє непохитну ініціативу і професіоналізм їх творців. Захист і сучасна інтерпретація архітектурної спадщини є надважливими завданнями, оскільки вони сприяють збереженню, примноженню і передачі знань та цінностей наступним поколінням.
The Institution of the Prime Minister in the Republic of Serbia: Its Systemic Evolution and Constitutional Practice
Authors:   University of Warsaw, Wojnicki Jacek
Published: November 2024

The article examines the evolution of the political position of the head of government institution in the Serbian state. The analysis covers the different models of government that have developed in Serbia over the last 180 years. During the monarchical period, the prime minister’s position was a function of his relationship with the king and the political alignment in parliament. In turn, during the period of popular democracy and socialism, the prime minister’s position depended on the political alignment at the top of the communist elite. It is also an interesting exercise to analyse the evolution of the post-1990 position of the head of government, especially in the context of the new constitutional order and the rather turbulent changes on Serbia’s political scene.
The Challenges of “Renewed” Enlargement to the Western Balkan Countries
Authors:   Mardin Artuklu University, Yariş Zelal Başak
Published: November 2024

In the last two decades, acting as an anchor for a transition to democracy and a market economy, the EU has given membership perspectives to the Western Balkan countries of Albania, Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, North Macedonia, Montenegro, and Croatia. At the outset, the EU triggered democratic reforms, empowered civil society organisations, and established democratic rules in those countries. However, on Croatia’s joining the EU in 2013, the Union demonstrated what can be best described as apparent enlargement fatigue and took a break from the widening of Western Balkan countries for the ﬁve subsequent years. However, the Russian invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 revitalised the EU enlargement policy towards Western Balkan countries for security and geostrategic considerations. In that purview, this paper seeks to explore contextual constraints associated with the EU’s renewed enlargement policy towards Western Balkan countries. Using the conceptual framework of Alcaro and his co-authors (2022), it is argued that the EU renewed enlargement operates in a context driven by the following three key processes: (1) multi-actor geostrategic competition; (2) regional fragmentation; and (3) intra-EU contestation. In this context, considering international, regional, and institutional contextual constraints, the EU’s leverage on the Western Balkan countries would not be taken for granted, suggesting that the EU needs to develop hybrid strategies transcending classic tools of enlargement.
Microwave-assisted N,N’-dimethylbenzimidazolium iodide as a powerful and efficient catalytic system for the intermolecular Stetter reaction and the synthesis of 1,2-diarylethane-1,2-dione derivatives in the absence of organic solvent

1,4-addition products were successfully synthesized through intermolecular Stetter reactions involving aromatic aldehydes and α,β-unsaturated compounds, as well as 1,2-dicarbonyl compound derivatives via cross-coupling reactions between aromatic aldehydes and N-acylbenzotriazoles. These reactions yielded appreciable quantities of products with significantly reduced reaction times when performed under microwave irradiation. These results were achieved using just 50 mol% of N,N-dimethylbenzimidazolium iodide along with suitable bases like NaOH and DBU, which further contributed to the high yields of products while minimizing the formation of unwanted side products. This method is not only efficient but also clean, practical, and straightforward. Moreover, the N,N-dimethylbenzimidazolium iodide catalyst, once recovered after extraction and in the absence of organic solvents, can be reused multiple times without experiencing a significant loss of catalytic efficiency. This aspect is particularly noteworthy for promoting eco-friendly chemistry practices.

The present study demonstrates the effect of metal ions (stainless steel, Cu2+, and Fe2+), and their catalytic activity in the lipid oxidation of the milk samples. Milk fat is one of the complex fats and highly sensitive to auto-oxidation. To amplify the effect of metal ions, milk is subjected to temperature treatment, leading to various chemical and biochemical changes in the lipid fraction of the heated milk. Metal release were monitored by HG-AAS for the metal determination in milk samples. In this current investigation, the effect of metals ions on heated milk was determined using Ekomilk Scan for physicochemical analysis and ATR-FTIR Spectroscopy for the determination of lipid oxidative status, in combination with the chemometric PCA (Principal Component Analysis), which was not reported in earlier investigations. The heating process resulted in decreases in the areas of intensity ratios of 1746/2923 and 1737/2923 cm-1. Principal component analysis and hierarchical cluster analysis confirmed that stainless steel has a higher effect on lipid oxidation than copper and iron. These results demonstrate that the metal in milk solution and their ions impact lipid oxidation during the heating. This research also indicateds that oil oxidation could be easily and rapidly monitored by ATR-FTIR spectroscopy.

The effect of thermal radiation on the two – dimensional, steady-state, conjugate heat transfer from a circular cylinder with an internal heat source in steady laminar crossflow is investigated in this work. P0 (Rosseland) and P1 approximations were used to model the radiative transfer. The mathematical model equations were solved numerically. Qualitatively, P0 and P1 approximations show the same effect of thermal radiation on conjugate heat transfer; the increase in the radiation – conduction parameter decreases the cylinder surface temperature and increases the heat transfer rate. Quantitatively, there are significant differences between the results provided by the two approximations.

Air and soil pollution is a global concern due to the substantial environmental and health hazards they bring. This critical analysis conducted a comparative analysis of the main pollution sources, pollution levels, and pollution impacts in Rwanda, Romania, and China through an extensive review of existing literature. The results indicate that the presence of particulate and gaseous pollutants, microplastic particles (Mps), and heavy metals in the air and soil poses significant global health and environmental risks. Despite various governmental efforts, managing these pollutants remains challenging. Rwanda struggles with biomass-related air pollution, Romania with heavy metal contamination from past industries, and China with severe soil pollution exacerbated by population growth. The study emphasizes the need for stronger regulations, public awareness, research investment, and international collaboration to address these challenges effectively.

Since 2017, targeted therapies combined with conventional intensive chemotherapy have started to improve outcome of patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). However, even before these innovations outcomes with intensive chemotherapy have improved, which has not yet been extensively studied. Thus, we used a large pan-European multicenter dataset of the HARMONY Alliance to evaluate treatment-time dependent outcomes over two decades. In 5359 AML patients, we compared the impact of intensive induction therapy on outcome over four consecutive 5-year calendar periods from 1997 to 2016. During that time, the 5- year survival of AML patients improved significantly, also across different genetic risk groups. In particular, the 60-day mortality rate has dropped from 13.0% to 4.7% over time. The independent effect of calendar periods on outcome was confirmed in multivariate models. Improvements were documented both for patients

El acceso a la educación universitaria ha emergido como un tema de estudio que puede ser interpelado desde diversas perspectivas investigativas. Una de estas perspectivas, abordada en el artículo siguiente, se centra en las estrategias de vinculación entre las instituciones universitarias y las instituciones del nivel secundario. Esta problemática adquiere relevancia particular en el contexto de obligatoriedad de la educación secundaria. Aunque los recién egresados de la educación secundaria representan sólo una fracción de los nuevos ingresantes a la universidad, este grupo posee una importancia significativa para las universidades al momento de diseñar sus políticas de ingreso.
Considerando este contexto, el artículo examina esta cuestión desde la perspectiva de los gestores universitarios, explorando las diversas estrategias empleadas para vincularse con la educación secundaria. El objetivo es describir y analizar las diferentes formas de vinculación que las universidades nacionales del conurbano bonaerense han desarrollado con los establecimientos de educación secundaria.
El trabajo de campo se basó en entrevistas realizadas a los responsables del ingreso en cada institución, como parte de una investigación más amplia que investiga los mecanismos regulatorios del ingreso a la universidad. A través del análisis cualitativo de las entrevistas, se llevó a cabo una categorización que permitió identificar diversas estrategias de vinculación, que abarcan desde la mera provisión de información hasta la colaboración en proyectos de formación e investigación conjunta.
Estas categorías se presentan como resultado de este artículo, ofreciendo una visión detallada de las diferentes formas en que las universidades se relacionan con la educación secundaria en busca de una colaboración más estrecha y efectiva.
«Yo puedo compaginar»: Análisis de la producción audiovisual realizada por Serú Girán en Argentina 78 Televisora
Authors: Gastaldi Francisco
Published: November 2024

Este trabajo se propone investigar el modelo cultural que representaba la televisión a color en Argentina a finales de la década de 1970 e interpretar las ventajas que este medio de comunicación le proporcionaba a un grupo de rock. En virtud de ello, se analizarán las mediaciones entre Serú Girán y la televisión pública argentina, sosteniendo como hipótesis que la nueva banda creada por Charly García habría apelado a un público masivo que le permitiese ampliar la base social de su audiencia. A través de la mediación artística, Serú Girán intentó compaginar su expresión musical proveniente de la cultura rock con la heterogeneidad de los públicos que propiciaba la televisión argentina en tanto medio masivo de comunicación.
La performance televisiva de Serú Girán opera como principio de comprensión en el presente trabajo, permitiendo así problematizar la especificidad del rock argentino dentro de la cultura de masa. Por tanto, el análisis se enfoca en la grabación de los primeros videoclips a color de Serú Girán, producidos en los estudios de Argentina 78 TV. Una de las particularidades que exhibe dicho metraje es la aparición del color en la realización audiovisual, considerada una innovación tecnológica en el campo de los medios de comunicación argentinos de la época.
Serú Girán capitalizó artísticamente las posibilidades que ofrecía la irrupción de la televisión a color en Argentina e intentó ampliar la circulación de su música. Asimismo, la vinculación con este determinado dispositivo de producción y difusión de contenidos audiovisuales supuso un escenario propicio para que Serú Girán amplifique su imagen mediática y se diversifique, convirtiéndose en una experiencia de alta rotación para la industria cultural.

Epigenetics is the study of changes in organisms caused by genetic control through different factors without alteration of the genetic code itself. Epigenetic inheritance and its under lying molecular mechanisms are the most fascinating areas of current biological and medical research data regarding the epigenetically mediated effects of a man's diet on sperm quality are emerging in the field of human reproductive health. In this regard, epigenetics has become one of the most promising research areas in understanding male infertility. Infertility is the inability to conceive after at least a year of unprotected intercourse which influences about 15% of couples worldwide. The actual cause has not surely revealed yet, hence it is termed as idiopathic male infertility. Many studies have indicated that epigenetic modifications including DNA methylation in imprinted and developmental genes, modifications of histone tail as well as the short non-coding RNAs in spermatozoa may have a role in idiopathic male infertility. The present review aims to assess the significance of DNA methylation in male infertility.

Pengaruh CEO Tenure terhadap Audit Fee
Authors: Faridah Jauharotul , Kalanjati Devi Sulistyo
Published: November 2024

This study examines the effect of CEO tenure on audit fees in two different periods, the first three years and the final year of the CEOs’ service. Those two periods were chosen because the CEOs’ are more likely to show high risk-taking behavior and manage earnings as proof of his ability to manage the company when he is about to start and end his service, and to maintain the chair of Board of Directors after retirement. Hence, the first three years and the final year of the CEOs’ service increase the probability of financial misreporting and thus the audit risk compared to other years, so it affects the determination of audit fees by the auditor. The results by using 1157 samples of data from non-finance and non-mining companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) from 2010 to 2019 shows a significant effect between CEO tenure and audit fees. This study initiates research on the topic of CEO tenure and audit fees in Indonesia and expands the literature on CEO tenure and audit fees.
