AGGREGATION WITH SEQUENTIAL INDIVISIBLE AND CONTINUOUS LABOR SUPPLY DECISIONS AND AN INFORMAL SECTOR
Authors: VASILEV Aleksandar
Published: December 2022

The purpose of this paper is to explore the problem of non-convex labor supply decision in an economy with both discrete and continuous labor decisions. In contrast to the setup in Vasilev (2016a), here each household faces a sequential labor market choice - an indivisible labor supply choice in the market sector, and conditional on non-working in the official sector, a divisible hours choice in the informal sector. We show how lotteries as in Rogerson (1988) can again be used to convexify consumption sets, and aggregate over individual preferences. With a mix of sequential discrete and continuous labor supply decisions, aggregate disutility of non-market work becomes separable from market work, and the elasticity of the latter increases from unity to infinity.
COMMUNISM, VALUE NEUTRALITY AND MONETARY NEUTRALITY
Authors: LUO Yinghao
Published: December 2022

One of the most puzzling aspects about the functioning of the floating exchange rate regime of the 1980s has been that huge swings in exchange rate have had only muted effects on anything real. To understand this phenomenon, we study the relationship between communism and value neutrality and monetary neutrality. We find that the symmetry of communism is bound to lead to value neutrality. In the case of value neutrality, the economic man will certainly accept monetary neutrality. If money is neutral in the long run then even if purchasing power parity (PPP) is not valid in the short-run it will valid over the long run. However, without considering the time factor, communism is a kind of symmetry that is almost impossible to achieve. While considering the time factor, the symmetry of communism can be achieved in theory!
WAGE INEQUALITY AND INNOVATIVE INTELLIGENCE-BIASED TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGE
Authors: HARASHIMA Taiji
Published: December 2022

In this paper, “innovative intelligence–biased technological change” (IIBTC) is examined as an alternative to the traditional concept of skill-biased technological change (SBTC) as a source of increases in wage inequality. The innovative intelligence of ordinary or average workers is an important element in productivity and can be heterogeneous across workers. Because technologies are heterogeneous in that they have different characteristics and are used in different situations, some technologies are “innovative intelligence-biased” and are advantageous for workers with relatively high innovative intelligence. If IIBTC prevails over a certain period of time, these workers become additionally advantaged and thereby wage inequality will increase during the period.

Authors: TAMUKE Edmund , JACKSON Emerson Abraham , SILLAH Abdulai
Published: December 2022

The study has provided empirical investigation of both ARIMA and ARIMAX methodology as a way of providing forecast of Headline Consumer Price Index (HCPI) for Sierra Leone based on data collected from the Sierra Leone Statistical Office and the Bank of Sierra Leone. In this, the main research question of addressing outcomes from in and out-of-sample forecast were provided using the Static technique and this shows that both methodologies were proved to have tracked past and future occurrences of HCPI with minimal margin of error as indicated in the MAPE results. In a similar note, the key objective of identifying whether the ARIMAX methodology or the ARIMA methodology is a better predictor of forecasting future trends in HCPI. However, on the whole, both ARIMA and ARIMAX seem to have provided very good outcome in predicting future events of HCPI, particularly when Static technique is used as the option for forecasting outcomes, with the ARIMAX marginally coming out as the preferred choice on the basis of its evaluation outcomes.

Authors: Anshar Muhammad , Siradjuddin Irsyadi , Rezki Muhammad , Kusmiran Amirin
Published: December 2022

Bontolempangan District is one of the districts included in the spatial planning area of the Gowa Regency. The development of tourism potential and agricultural land resources is a major part of the Gowa Regency spatial plan (RTRW 2012-2032). Therefore, this research investigates the potential of agricultural commodities and the carrying capacity of their land so that they can be used as a reference to become an agricultural-based tourism area. The agricultural potential was analyzed using the location quotient (LQ) and dynamic location quotient (DLQ) methods, while the carrying capacity of agricultural land was analyzed using land suitability analysis. From the LQ and DLQ analysis, robusta coffee, cocoa, cashew, candlenut, and arabica coffee are the leading agricultural commodities. Based on the land suitability analysis, the carrying capacity of the land for superior agricultural commodities is categorized into themoderate suitable level (S2) with an area of 2968.22 ha for Robusta coffee, 1202.30 ha of cocholate, 2227.22 ha of cashew nuts, 2253.47 ha of candlenut, 3235.91 ha of Arabica coffee ha, and sweet potatoes covering an area of 952.78 ha. Thus, leading agricultural commodities can be developed into agricultural-based tourism areas or agro-tourism.

Kształtowanie się zasad odpowiedzialności sprawcy czynu zabronionego w kontekście art. 30 Kodeksu karnego
Authors: Matusiak Marlena
Published: December 2022

Przekształcanie się treści przepisów prawnych kolejnych polskich kodyfikacji karnych, dotyczących error iuris, wskazuje wyraźną tendencję do łagodzenia zasad odpowiedzialności sprawcy przestępstwa, będącego w stanie nieświadomości bezprawności. Okoliczność ta unaocznia, że zawarte w art. 30 k.k. określenie „błąd usprawiedliwiony” nie pokrywa się merytorycznie ze sformułowaniem „błąd, którego sprawca nie mógł uniknąć”. Obecnie podstawę do ekskulpowania sprawcy i zwolnienia go z odpowiedzialności mogą stanowić różnorodne okoliczności, dotyczące nie tylko właściwości samej osoby pozostającej pod wpływem błędu, ale też całokształtu warunków, w których dopuściła się czynu zabronionego, nawet jeżeli z punktu widzenia abstrakcyjnie ukształtowanego „wzorcowego obywatela”, dałoby się uniknąć błędu prawnego. W opracowaniu wskazano uwarunkowania historyczne, proces ewolucji error iuris, a także dokonana została próba systematyki katalogu okoliczności usprawiedliwiających nieświadomość bezprawności.
Umowa dzierżawy nieruchomości gruntowej zawierana w związku z budową farmy fotowoltaicznej
Authors: Narodzonek Anna
Published: December 2022

Zainteresowanie produkcją energii elektrycznej przy pomocy instalacji fotowoltaicznych zauważalnie zwiększa się. Aby było to możliwe, inwestor jest zobligowany do posiadania tytułu prawnego do nieruchomości, na której ma być posadowiona farma, co następuje poprzez zawarcie umowy dzierżawy nieruchomości gruntowej. Postanowienia takiej umowny w znaczący sposób różnią się od modelowych rozwiązań przyjętych w Kodeksie cywilnym i umacniają pozycję dzierżawcy względem wydzierżawiającego. W umowach dzierżawy zawieranych w tym celu znaleźć można postanowienia dotyczące zgody na zawarcie umowy poddzierżawy oraz przelew praw i obowiązków wynikający z umowy dzierżawy. Strony w umowie regulują także czyją własność stanowią urządzenia posadowione na nieruchomości oraz wyłączają zastosowanie ustawowego prawa zastawu przysługującego wydzierżawiającemu. Również postanowienia dotyczące czynszu dzierżawnego odbiegają od klasycznych postanowień umowy dzierżawy. Takie umocnienie pozycji dzierżawcy wynika między innymi z tego, że nie ingeruje on w znaczący sposób w stan nieruchomości, a po wygaśnięciu umowy dzierżawy, wydzierżawiający będzie mógł z niej korzystać.
Prosta spółka akcyjna jako remedium na problemy polskich start-upów
Authors: Nędzyński Szymon
Published: December 2022

Obecna rzeczywistość została zdominowana przez nowoczesne technologie. Proces cyfryzacji nabrał intensywnego tempa, przy czym nie przewiduje się, aby zamierzał on zwalniać. Branża nowych technologii obejmuje już praktycznie każdą dziedzinę życia człowieka. Tak ogromne spectrum działalności oraz zindywidualizowana specyfika każdego startupu, przekładają się na różnego rodzaju problemy prawne w uregulowaniu takich działaności. Wymagają one bowiem elastyczności podczas formułowania umowy spółki, a także gwarancji obejmowania udziałów/akcji również za wkłady w postaci świadczenia pracy lub usług. Oczywistym jest, że to czynnik ludzki, a właściwie praca konkretnej osoby (odkrywcy), jest kluczem do osiągnięcia sukcesu w tej branży. Regulacje dotyczące spółek osobowych nie są jednak wystarczające dla tego rodzaju przedsięwzięć, gdyż startupy – ze względu na wykorzystywane nowoczesne technologie – mogą w ekspresowym tempie zwiększać swoją dochodowość. Taki sukces wiąże się z ogromnymi nakładami finansowymi, co powoduje, iż wspólnicy lub akcjonariusze spółki, powinni mieć zagwarantowaną ograniczoną odpowiedzialność za ewentualne niepowodzenie. Również dotychczasowe spółki kapitałowe wydają się nie być remedium na problemy startupów. Regulacje te przede wszystkim nie umożliwiają obejmowania akcji za pracę na rzecz spółki, utrudniają zbywanie udziałów (np. w spółce z ograniczoną odpowiedzialnością), a także wprowadzają formalizm podczas sporządzania umowy spółki oraz wymagają pokrycia dużego kapitału zakładowego (np. w spółce akcyjnej). Ustawodawca mając na celu rozwiązanie wyżej opisanych trudności, zdecydował się wprowadzić do Kodeksu spółek handlowych nową instytucję – prostą spółkę akcyjną. W opracowaniu przybliżono charakterystykę startupu, aktualnej sytuacji prawnej tego rodzaju przedsiębiorstw, a także omówiono najważniejsze regulacje prawne, które mogą wywrzeć wpływ na ich funkcjonowanie

Niniejszy artykuł podejmuje problematykę relacji między szczegółowym zagadnieniem języka, jakim są spójniki eksplikatywne (wyjaśniające), oraz zrozumiałością uzasadnień orzeczeń sądowych. Autor rozpoczyna wywód od omówienia funkcji uzasadnień w oparciu o Konstytucję RP oraz orzecznictwo Trybunału Konstytucyjnego, a także wskazuje obowiązujące w tym zakresie standardy. Następnie przedstawia on językową rolę spójników eksplikatywnych w języku polskim, a także ich praktyczne zastosowanie w uzasadnieniach orzeczeń sądowych. Autor konkretyzuje rozważania w tym zakresie na przykładzie skierowanego do francuskich sądów administracyjnych zbioru rekomendacji redakcyjnych opublikowanego przez tamtejszą Radę Stanu. Rozważania teoretyczne są w kolejnym kroku zestawione z zebranymi przez autora danymi statycznymi w zakresie użycia spójników eksplikatywnych w grupie 100 wybranych wyroków Naczelnego Sądu Administracyjnego wydanych w latach 2015–2019. Ostatnim etapem analizy jest wskazanie oraz omówienie dwóch zaobserwowanych problemów związanych ze stosowaniem tychże spójników w zebranym korpusie badawczym. Na podstawie powyższego autor wysnuwa wnioski w zakresie czynników wpływających na zrozumiałość uzasadnień orzeczeń sądowych, możliwych metod zwiększania standardów w tym zakresie, a także roli spójników eksplikatywnych w uzasadnieniach, wliczając w to wiążące się z ich użyciem (albo nieużyciem) stosowanie modeli rozumowania wyjaśniającego albo dedukcyjnego.

Published: December 2022

Coordinating the four limbs is an important feature of terrestrial mammalian locomotion. When the foot dorsum contacts an obstacle, cutaneous mechanoreceptors send afferent signals to the spinal cord to elicit coordinated reflex responses in the four limbs to ensure dynamic balance and forward progression. To determine how the locomotor pattern of all four limbs changes in response to a sensory perturbation evoked by activating cutaneous afferents from one hindlimb, we electrically stimulated the superficial peroneal (SP) nerve with a relatively long train at four different phases (mid-stance, stance-to-swing transition, mid-swing, and swing-to-stance transition) of the hindlimb cycle in seven adult cats. The largest functional effects of the stimulation were found at mid-swing and at the stance-to-swing transition with several changes in the ipsilateral hindlimb, such as increased activity in muscles that flex the knee and hip joints, increased joint flexion and toe height, increased stride/step lengths and increased swing duration. We also observed several changes in support periods to shift support from the stimulated hindlimb to the other three limbs. The same stimulation applied at mid-stance and the swing-to-stance transition produced more subtle changes in the pattern. We observed no changes in stride and step lengths in the ipsilateral hindlimb with stimulation in these phases. We did observe some slightly greater flexions at the knee and ankle joints with stimulation at mid-stance and a reduction in double support periods and increase in triple support. Our results show that correcting or preventing stumbling involves functional contributions from all four limbs.
Spatiotemporal Developmental Gradient of Thalamic Morphology, Microstructure, and Connectivity fromthe Third Trimester to Early Infancy

Published: December 2022

Thalamus is a critical component of the limbic system that is extensively involved in both basic and high-order brain functions. However, how the thalamic structure and function develops at macroscopic and microscopic scales during the perinatal period development is not yet well characterized. Here, we used multishell high-angular resolution diffusion MRI of 144 preterm-born and full-term infants in both sexes scanned at 32–44 postmenstrual weeks (PMWs) from the Developing Human Connectome Project database to investigate the thalamic development in morphology, microstructure, associated connectivity, and subnucleus division. We found evident anatomic expansion and linear increases of fiber integrity in the lateral side of thalamus compared with the medial part. The tractography results indicated that thalamic connection to the frontal cortex developed later than the other thalamocortical connections (parieto-occipital, motor, somatosensory, and temporal). Using a connectivity-based segmentation strategy, we revealed that functional partitions of thalamic subdivisions were formed at 32 PMWs or earlier, and the partition developed toward the adult pattern in a lateral-to-medial pattern. Collectively, these findings revealed faster development of the lateral thalamus than the central part as well as a posterior-to-anterior developmental gradient of thalamocortical connectivity from the third trimester to early infancy.

SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENTThis is the first study that characterizes the spatiotemporal developmental pattern of thalamus during the third trimester to early infancy. We found that thalamus develops in a lateral-to-medial pattern for both thalamic microstructures and subdivisions; and thalamocortical connectivity develops in a posterior-to-anterior gradient that thalamofrontal connectivity appears later than the other thalamocortical connections. These findings may enrich our understanding of the developmental principles of thalamus and provide references for the atypical brain growth in neurodevelopmental disorders.

Published: December 2022

The purpose of this research  was to examine the value of the Wien’s constant using PhET Simulation virtual laboratory and simple numerical approach. The independent and dependent variable is blackbody temperature (T) and maximum wavelength (λ_max). In the use of a virtual laboratory, research is carried out by shifting the black body temperature feature so  the graph will display a spectral power density that varies to the wavelenght. Numerical approach was used in this research is Newton Raphson methods by Python program. Both of simulation and numerical approach yield the value of the maximum wavelength (λ_max) for a black body temperature variation. The black body temperatures and their appropriate maximum wavelength data then analyzed using linear regression. Final result show that value Wien’s constant using PhET is 2,93 × 10-3 mK with relative error obtained is 1,07 % while using Newton Raphson the Wien’s constant value obtained is 3,07 × 10-3 mK with relative error is 5,90 %. The two approachs carried out produce data that slightly different, but still in a very good accucracy range when compared with theory. So, PhET Simulation and Newton Raphson methods effective to examine the value of the Wien’s constant.

ІНСТИТУЦІЙНІ ДЕТЕРМІНАНТИ КОНКУРЕНТНОЇ ПОЛІТИКИ НА РИНКУ ФІНАНСОВИХ ПОСЛУГ
Authors: УМАНЦІВ Юрій , ШКУРОПАДСЬКА Діана
Published: December 2022

Проблематика інституційних детермінант конкурентної політики на ринку фінансових послуг являє собою актуальний і перспективний дослідницький напрям, важливий як у теоретичному контексті, так і в практичному вимірі. Обґрунтування напрямів реалізації конкурентної політики на ринку фінансових послуг є особливо актуальним у країнах з ринками, що формуються, до яких належить і Україна. Зроблено висновок, що протягом останніх років застосування регуляторних механізмів на ринку фінансових послуг стало основою цифрової трансформації підприємницької моделі його суб’єктів. Активізацію розвитку таких технологій обумовлено діями регуляторів, спрямованими на підвищення дієвості інструментів нагляду після фінансових криз і зростання витрат на дотримання нових нормативних вимог. Засадничими детермінантами досягнення належного рівня конкурентних відносин між суб’єктами ринку фінансових послуг є розроблення і реалізація адекватної та збалансованої конкурентної політики держави. В Україні створено законодавчу базу й сформовано організаційні засади для реалізації ефективної державної конкурентної політики, проте поглиблення ринкових перетворень постійно породжує нові проблеми у сфері конкурентної політики, які потребують удосконалених підходів до їх вирішення.
Дослідження інституційних детермінант конкурентної політики на ринку фінансових послуг дозволило визначити основні, серед яких зростання залежності від екзогенних чинників,  недосконалість стандартів поширення інформації та її асиметрія, порушення прав споживачів, деформація норм і практик провадження підприємницької діяльності, низький рівень довіри до суб’єктів ринку, динамічний розвиток фінансових інновацій. Інституційне середовище детермінує особливості функціонування ринку фінансових послуг, при цьому розвиток національної економіки неможливий за умов його розбалансованості. Завдання вирішення ідентифікованих проблем покладається в першу чергу на державні інститути, водночас і споживачі фінансових послуг мають брати активну участь у здійсненні постійного моніторингу діяльності суб’єктів ринку.
„In ehrwürdigen Schauben und prächtigen Gewändern stolzieren manche herum...“. Die Mode im Olmütz des 16. und 17. Jahrhunderts unter linguistischem Aspekt
Authors: Spáčilová Libuše
Published: December 2022

The author analyses characteristics of fashion in the mentioned time scope which includes the renaissance and baroque. Italian and later French fashion dominated the fashion trends in that time. Based on these facts, the vocabulary of Olomouc’ estates was analysed from the etymological point of view with regard to words designating fashionable colours, fabrics and parts of everyday male and female clothing. The analysis of these expressions leads to the conclusion that as a result of fashion trends in clothing and lifestyle, terms connected to these trends were borrowed from the respective languages as there were no equivalents for these new extra-lingual objects in German of that time. Italian and French loan words were quite quickly adapted in German language – they aligned to the flexion and formed derivatives and composites. The world of colours was influenced as well, because fabrics of many various colours appeared especially at the beginning of the 17th century and were mostly of French origin. For colour names, loan words or indigenous word-forming means were used to capture various colour shades so that the language users get an idea about their nature. The results of comparison of colours and fashion vocabulary in Olomouc show that lexical means were comparable to the vocabulary related to the given topics which were used in central German language area. This has been proven by information gained from German dictionaries, especially the one of the Early Modern High German and etymological dictionaries.
A malignus eredetű dysphagia palliatív kezelésére használt merev és öntáguló sztentek eredményeinek összehasonlító vizsgálata
Authors: Balázs Ákos , Vass Tamás , Hritz István , Horváth Miklós , Papp Veronika , Szijártó Attila
Published: December 2022

Bevezetés: A nyelőcső malignus szűkületeinek palliatív
kezelésére 1984 és 2019 között 1005 merev protézist és 423 öntáguló sztentet
ültettünk be. Célkitűzés: Tanulmányunk célja a két
protézisfajta kezelési eredményeinek összehasonlítása volt.
Módszer: Retrospektív elemzés során összehasonlítottuk a
két betegcsoport jellemzőit, kezelési eredményeit a technikai sikeresség, a
szövődmények, az életminőség alakulása és a túlélés vonatkozásában.
Eredmények: Az átlagéletkorok, az anamnézisidők, a
testsúlycsökkenés értéke, a tumoros folyamat előrehaladottságának
összehasonlítása azt igazolja, hogy a sztenttel történő palliáció több rosszabb
állapotú beteg kezelését tette lehetővé. A szövődmények száma a sztenttel kezelt
betegcsoportban szignifikánsan magasabb: 29,3%/20,9% volt. A szövődmények
ellátására endoszkópos intervenciót végeztünk, a merev protéziseknél 68,6%-ban,
a sztenttel kezelteknél 53,2%-ban. A dysphagia és a betegek életminőségének
lényeges javulása volt észlelhető a merev protézissel kezelteknél 97%-ban, a
sztenttel kezelteknél 91,3%-ban. A túlélési idő a sztenttel kezelt
betegcsoportban szignifikánsan rövidebb, 4,3/5,4 hónap volt.
Következtetés: Az öntáguló sztentek alkalmazása a malignus
szűkületek palliatív kezelésében a lehetőségek bővülésével lényeges változásokat
hozott a mindennapi gyakorlatban. A kezelési eredményeket az öntáguló sztentek
szélesebb körű használata nem javította annyival, mint amennyivel a betegcsoport
rosszabb állapota rontotta. Orv Hetil. 2022; 163(49): 1952–1961.
El culto a los «di Manes»
Authors: Arenas-Gallego Laura-María
Published: December 2022

En la antigua Roma los antepasados, así como mantener vivo el recuerdo de los muer tos entre la familia, era realmente importante. Esto se expresaba a través de la religión privada, por un lado en el hogar, donde encontramos los retratos de los ancestros siempre presentes en la vida de los romanos, y por otro en las necrópolis convertidas en verdaderas ciudades donde las tumbas y las inscripciones que las acompañaban eran una forma de conmemoración a aquellos que permanecían sepultados allí. Lugares muy transitados donde rendir homenaje con ofrendas regulares a los muertos. Los difuntos se convertían en divinidades o espíritus familiares llamados Manes, que protegían a sus familias a cambio de no caer en el olvido. Así se instituyó un culto a los muertos repleto de ceremonias, fiestas, sacrificios rituales y ofrendas.

A pandemia provocou uma crise mundial acarretando consequências socioeconômicas e à saúde pública a toda sociedade. As/os catadoras/es de materiais recicláveis são profissionais da linha de frente do campo do saneamento e sofrem impactos econômicos, além de estarem constantemente sob o risco de contaminação. A organização das/os catadoras/es em Redes é uma estratégia adotada pelas Associações e Cooperativas em busca de fortalecimento e melhores condições de trabalho e durante a pandemia tem sido fundamental para manutenção socioeconômica das/os profissionais da catação. Neste sentido, este trabalho busca apresentar reflexões interdisciplinares a partir da análise das experiências da Redesul Sudoeste MG, dos desafios e estratégias de enfrentamento adotadas pela referida organização, bem como as articulações realizadas com demais atores da cadeia produtiva da reciclagem no sentido de atenuar os prejuízos causados em decorrência da COVID–19. Realizou-se levantamento bibliográfico e coleta de dados por meio de entrevista semiestruturada com o representante da organização, cujos dados foram analisados por meio do método de análise de conteúdo. Os resultados apontam desafios no âmbito da saúde, manutenção financeira, ineficiência de políticas públicas e participação da população. Entretanto, observou-se a potência da organização em Rede pautada pela solidariedade entre os grupos e as articulações com parceiros para o enfrentamento dos desafios e preenchimento das lacunas deixadas pelo poder público quanto a efetivação de políticas públicas.

Trata-se de pesquisa qualitativa, exploratória e descritiva, vinculada ao projeto do Núcleo de reparo de ventiladores pulmonares (NRVP). Objetivo: relatar as experiências e as reflexões de uma equipe de professores de enfermagem que atuam na reparação de respiradores pulmonares. As reflexões contribuíram para o enfrentamento da COVID-19, suas implicações cotidianas. Fomentar a criação de curso de formação específico para a manutenção de equipamentos hospitalares, é uma necessidade vigente neste momento de pandemia e no pós-pandemia. A estratégia desenvolvida para o reparo e manutenção dos respiradores pulmonares, no enfrentamento da COVID-19 deve se configurar como um legado desse período e como contribuição social dos envolvidos no processo. Desta maneira, podemos dizer que a atitude de criação do núcleo de reparo constituiu-se como uma ação social, de voluntariado e engajamento dos participantes que integram as respostas das instituições de ensino e pesquisa à crise da COVID-19 no Brasil.
Reducing school violence: A peace education project in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa
Authors: Ngidi Lucia Zithobile , Kaye Sylvia Blanche
Published: December 2022

Violence occurring in South African schools takes various forms and is a concern for all stakeholders. All forms of violence have negative effects, i.e. physical and psychological, educational damage and societal breakdown. The overall aim of the study reported on here was to explore the nature, causes and consequences of school violence, and then to design an effective intervention strategy to reduce it. In this study we used action research methodology in which stakeholders were empowered to interrupt the occurrence of violence, stop the spread of violence and change group/community norms regarding violence. This strategy of violence reduction was tested at 1 school in Umlazi, in the KwaZulu-Natal province of South Africa, in 4 stages: initial data collection, formation of an action team, design and implementation of a strategy, and evaluation of its efficacy. The action team was composed of teachers, community members, parents and learners who developed a strategy entitled, We Care (WC). Initial from both schools data showed that schools were unsafe, with school violence caused by substance abuse, theft, vandalism, physical violence, religious discrimination, sexual violence, cyber bullying, gender-based violence and gambling. WC clustered abnormal behaviour patterns demonstrated by learners into categories: violent cases and behavioural indicators of physical, sexual, alcohol and drug abuse. WC assisted high risk learners who had decided to act non violently, help victims and assist parents and community members who perpetrated violence. A preliminary evaluation was conducted 1 year later and WC reported that they had developed capacity to assist with these categories of violence, leading to a reduction in violent behaviour at the school.
Qualitative exploration of workplace demands, resources and bullying among teachers in South African schools: Implications for individual and organisational well being
Authors: Bernstein Colleen , Batchelor Toni Paige
Published: December 2022

The aim of the study reported on here was to examine workplace bullying among teachers in South African schools. The research was framed by the Job Demands-Resources Model which was utilised to determine the extent of demands and resources that teachers experience and the implications thereof for creating an environment that fosters bullying and the effect of such bullying on teachers and schools. A qualitative interpretative research design was utilised. Data were collected by means of semi-structured interviews with 13 teachers. Thematic Content Analysis (TCA) was used to interpret the data. The findings reveal that teachers work in an environment characterised by excessive demands with ever increasing workloads and a lack of supportive resources. This environment fosters stress, anger, frustration and aggression, and increases perpetration of bullying acts, as teachers turn upon one another. The findings in this study indicate that in the aftermath of bullying, feelings of incompetence, emotional exhaustion, depression and anxiety manifest. Furthermore, teachers reported engaging in withdrawal behaviour and expressing an increased desire to leave the profession. The results of this study have serious implications for teachers’ well being and their willingness to remain within the profession. In order to protect the well being of teachers and the overall integrity of schools there is an urgent need to increase resources and interventions to create a more conducive and healthy work environment. The need for resource provision and a re examination of demands becomes even more evident during the era of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19).
Soil Nitrogen Cycling Over Two Decades Following Calcium Treatment in Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest, NH
Authors:   ,   Portland State University, Uribe Angelina
Published: December 2022

A watershed-scale calcium addition experiment at Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest, New Hampshire, was performed in 1999 to better understand how forest ecosystem function and biogeochemistry are affected by changes in pH. Significant increases in forest growth and acid neutralizing capacity of the soil and stream water were reported in the six years following the calcium addition, but the expected stimulation of the nitrogen cycle was not observed. The aims of this study were to 1) examine the 20-year dataset of soil nitrogen dynamics following the experimental calcium addition in the treated watershed and paired reference area to understand longer term trends and effects, and 2) explore connections between soil nitrogen processes and watershed nitrogen export in stream water observed in the calcium-treated watershed since 2013. Since 2002, soil pH was higher in the calcium-treated watershed than the reference, with stronger differences seen in surface horizons, but declined over time and converged toward the reference conditions by 2018, throughout the soil profile. Soil nitrogen cycling measurements were not consistent with the changes in soil pH, and temporal trends were different depending on the variable in question. Differences in temporal trends in nitrogen cycling variables were often more pronounced as a function of soil horizon than Ca treatment. However, interesting trends were seen in certain variables, with effects of Ca treatment diverging from long term trends in the reference area for some variables while converging toward reference conditions for others. There was no strong evidence from microbial nitrogen transformations at the plot scale to explain the nitrate export from the calcium treated watershed observed by other researchers (Rosi-Marshall et al. 2016). Because pathways in soil nitrogen cycling did not show consistent trajectories over time in response to the calcium treatment, understanding how changes in pH and other environmental variables, along with competition for nitrogen between plants and soil microbes, differentially affect these various processes remains a challenge in forest ecosystem science.

Abstract The aims of this clinical study were to evaluate the Color change - ΔE (based on spectrophotometry and visual analysis) and luminosity - L* (based on spectrophotometry) of dental enamel surface (after orthodontic treatment) around the area where orthodontic brackets were fixed, based on different cementing materials such as a resin (R group) and resin-modified glass ionomer cement (RMGIC group). The split-mouth study initially comprised 14 patients. Orthodontic brackets were fixed to the upper central incisors with resin or RMGIC. The color of the buccal surface of each tooth was measured through spectrophotometry and visual examination before the bracket-fixation process. Four individuals were excluded during the follow-up; thus 10 patients were evaluated (n=10). Brackets were removed after 12 months of orthodontic treatment, tooth color measurement and visual examination were performed again, and Adhesive Remaining Index (ARI) was also measured. ΔE and L* results were subjected to Student's t-test and by repeated-measures analysis of variance, respectively (α=0.05). ARI data were analyzed in percentages. There was statistically significant difference in ΔE between groups; the R group showed statistically higher values of L* after orthodontic treatment. ARI of 2 and 3 prevailed in the RMGIC group, whereas the R group presented 0 and 1. After orthodontic treatment, the RMGIC group presented smaller changes in ΔE, and the increase in the white scale was observed on the enamel surface around the area where brackets were fixed in the R group. The visual analysis did not show color change on the evaluated teeth.

Published: December 2022

Abstract This study aimed to evaluate the internal adaptation of three different computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) ceramic crowns. The internal adaptation of a polymer-infiltrated ceramic network material (Vita Enamic [VE]) was compared to two machinable glass-ceramics; Zirconia-reinforced lithium silicate (Vita Suprinity [VS]) and a lithium disilicate glass-ceramic (IPS e.max. CAD). Thirty human premolars of average size were prepared (n=10 each group) by computer numerical control to fulfill the criteria of all-ceramic crown design. Optical impressions were taken for each tooth preparation using the CAD/CAM scanner. Thirty crowns were fabricated using CAD/CAM system and divided into three groups (IPS e.max, VE, and VS). To assess the internal fit of tested crowns, the gap between the intaglio of each crown and the corresponding tooth surface was evaluated using a 3D digital scanner using the Triple-scan Protocol. One-way ANOVA followed by Tukey Post Hoc statistical tests were used to statistically analyze results of the internal fit. There was a statistically significant difference for all groups at the four axial walls (p = 0.000002). For total internal fit between groups, comparisons showed a statistically significant difference between all tested groups (p=0.000002). When each pair of groups was statistically compared with each other, all pair comparisons showed a statistically significant difference. IPS e.max CAD had the best internal fit, followed by Vita Enamic, then Vita Suprinity. For all ceramics tested, values of internal fit of all ceramics tested were within the clinically acceptable range.

CLIL in Education for Science: a case study in a (post-) graduate program
Authors: Concário Marcelo , Martins Ana Elisa Piedade Sodero , Ignácio Junior Ismair
Published: December 2022

Abstract Content and language integrated learning (CLIL) has a long tradition in European countries, especially in primary and secondary education. In this paper we draw attention to the limited use of the term in higher education, especially at (post-)graduate level. By describing and discussing a course entirely taught in English to students in a program titled Education for Science in Brazil, the authors expect to contribute to a broader understanding of the interrelations between specialized content and advanced communicative skills in English for academic purposes. By focusing on qualitative data on the collaborative writing of a paper in English, it is expected that this kind of classroom-based case study will contribute to better informed decisions related to internationalization of (post-)graduate programs among institutions that underscore the importance of English to help promote visibility and cooperation.
