In times of social crisis, like war or economic depression, ethnic groups in the West find themselves compelled to undertake a programme of intensified ethnic invention, in order to justify their continued existence as visible minorities. For the Jewish minority in late-nineteenth and early-twentieth century Europe, the opposing demands made upon it by the twin heritages of the Enlightenment (cultural assimilation into universal ideals) and Romanticism (unique identity as a prerequisite for legitimizing ethnic existence) comprised seemingly unsurmountable contradictions. During the Second World War era, Swedish theologian and cultural critic Marcus Ehrenpreis examined the role of Judaism and Jewish culture in Western tradition. In order to bridge the polarities of universalism and particularism, Ehrenpreis delved back into the Hebrew Bible, paying particular attention to the prophets, and attempted to construct a synthesis of Jewish and European heritages. There he found a tradition pointing the way to negotiating "the good society" in the space between such polarities as individual and society and society and its minorities.
Plats för en karl
Authors: Frykman Jonas
Published: October 2024

This paper looks at how struggles to define a male identity, based in the home, lead to highly diverse definitions of what is typically masculine. In the early years of this century, Swedish men were transformed from the patriarchal head of the household of rural society to the absent husband of the industrial age. During the welfare-society period in the middle of this century, men were supposed to be hard-working breadwinners and prepared to help out as fathers by keeping children occupied in their spare time. The general argument is that while early modernity separated men from many of the responsibilities in regard to home and family, so is late modernity opening up new ways of relating to the values concerned with intimacy and life-policy questions. The many contradictory trends to this optimistic interpretation are also discussed.
Manlighet och det nordliga rummet
Authors: Eskilsson Lena
Published: October 2024

The object of this article is to discuss how images of science and northern space were also images of a type of masculinity which emerged in the decades around the turn of the century. The connection made between masculinity and the north comprises several aspects, including science, tourism, mountaineering and a society in the throes of change. The premise is that "masculinity" (like "femininity") is shaped by social and cultural processes. However masculinity is also constructed in relation to other men. These gender relationships imply a struggle for male hegemony. The hypothesis is that at the turn of the century, the development of a successful masculine type featuring a connection between masculinity and the north, literally or symbolically, can be observed.
The turn of the century also comprised a period of development within the natural sciences and their application to industry during the industrial breakthrough in Sweden. Mankind's struggle against nature was an important theme at that time. The explorer personified mankind's struggle to chart and subjugate nature. This struggle was particularly evident in two regions ⁠— the voyages of discovery to Africa and the expeditions into the northern Arctic. This meant that academic scientific ability need to be combined with practical skills, deliberation and stamina. In other words, here were demanded all the characteristics deemed fitting for the modern, middle-class (male) subject, a combination of rationality, enterprise and physical strength ⁠— particularly suited to adventures in the mountains and in the north.
Samhällets drägg och fattigdomens adel
Authors: Sjögren Mikael
Published: October 2024

To be poor not only implies that one suffers from a lack of material resources, but also that one risks being seen as a social parasite in the eyes of one's fellow man. This negative perception of the needy is not a uniquely Swedish phenomenon but is rather the rsult of a common development in Central and Eastern Europe beginning with the Reformation, when mass poverty began to be apprehended as a threat to society at the same time as the Protestant work ethic was gaining general acceptance. The present article discusses how a network of philanthropists and politicians, active members of Centralförbundet för Socialt Arbete (the National Association for Social Work) and Svenska Fattigvårdsförbundet (the National Association for Poor Relief), classified the poor as either "worthy" or "unworthy", in the debate on the reform of poor relief which took place in Sweden during the first two decades of the twentieth century.
The poor were classified in accordance with the middle-class values these individuals had acquired during their own adolescence in the classic, bourgeois milieu of the late 19th-century, Victorian Sweden. Those possessing the virtues of reliability, propriety, diligence and sobriety were considered worthy of society's aid, while those who failed to live up to the cultural virtues of the middle class were deemed unworthy and instead needed to be enlightened and deterred from their wicked ways.
Furthermore, such suspicions motivated heavy supervision of the poor, marked by distrust and even antipathy. It is here that the poor of the early twentieth century and the poor of today ⁠— the recipients of social benefits ⁠— have something in common. Poverty does not only imply that one lives in reduced material circumstances, but also with the stigma of being suspected of being lazy and unambitious.
De homosexuella rollerna
Authors: Norrhem Svante
Published: October 2024

The article deals with female and male homosexual characters in 41 TV-series shown in Sweden from the 1970's until today. Most of them are American, British or Australian.
There were no gays or lesbians in TV-series before 1976. After that, a period followed with few, male and ridiculed characters. The 1990's however have changed much: today homosexuality is treated in a more realistic way, and there are more lesbians in TV-series.
The homosexual character is seen from a heterosexual perspective. He or she is often lonely, seldom shown other than surrounded by heterosexuals. The gay person is always a minority. As a result the gay character has to symbolize homosexuals, and homosexuality, in general. He/she has gay-related problems with his/her parents, at work, among friends; he/she gets gaybashed, becomes infected with HIV etc.
Most of the TV-series have been shown on commercial TV, even though public television as a special responsibility to present programmes with or for minorities. My conclusion is that Sveriges Radio/TV consciously has chosen to ignore homosexuality. This policy only mirrors that of the Swedish government, and other influential groups within society, such as the church.

(Off-)theatre actors and audiences often interpret performances differently, often due to different understandings of artistic communication. In the article the author seeks to explore the field of tension between, on the one hand, the search for individual and unique experiences, and, on the other hand, the natural, the authentic, and the intrinsically conformable. Methodologically, the study is based on observational participation in Berlin.
Ta vad du vill ha!
Authors: Liliequist Marianne
Published: October 2024

My study is about cultural images of female strategies regarding the objectification of women. These images are helping women in creating new role models within the heterosexual interplay. From the beginning of the first punk-wave in the seventies one can find a sort of female "take whatever you want" attitude in literature and popular culture addressed to young women. I have taken examples from the soap Melrose Place, the idols Madonna and La Camilla, and the authorship of Unni Drougge and Louise Boije av Gennäs. All these images of female strategies have in common the rejection of the traditional female gender role and an ironic attitude towards life. This ironcy includes reflexiveness towards the objectifying voyeuristic male gaze but it also facilitates the presentation of the female body as an object of display.
Fayzas revertering
Authors: Karlsson Pia
Published: October 2024

Within the framework of my PhD-project on religion, gender and cultural change in Swedish mosques I am approaching a field loaded with strong feelings and normative statements. "Muslims" and "Muslim culture" are often regarded as something homogeneous. I would like to nuance this picture by using the concept of discourse to structure thoughts about the process in which a Muslim identity — both ascribed and self-produced — is shaped. For my analysis I take my starting point in a meeting with a young woman, brought up in England by parents of Pakistani origin. Her understanding of Islam has moved from a relatively unreflected one to an intense and reflexive. I argue that her experiences leading to this new expression has been framed and thus directed by a number of discourses, but also that she uses these as a strategy of resistance.
Kvinnorum i fadershus — kvinnliga prästers könsskapande
Authors: Meurling Birgitta
Published: October 2024

The aim with the article is to discuss how Swedish women clergy constitute gender in their professional career navigating between appreciation and resistance. It is obvious that the women clergy often are given a warm reception by people in the parish, but not always by their male colleagues. Here we speak of a kind of male homosociality which excludes women from the "top positions" in the Church of Sweden. In their professional position gender is always commented upon (a matter of fact that could be interpreted in a positive as well as a negative way): they are women clergy, not just clergymen. In the article the strategies developed by the women clergy are discussed, how the informants cope with their situation as women and clergy and their eventual potential to develop a new professional clerical role.
Utveckla Cultural Studies
Authors: Frith Simon
Published: October 2024

In the last twenty years Cultural Studies have had a remarkable impact on the academy in Britain, inspiring new approaches to research in both the humanities and the social sciences, and yet cultural studies scholars continue to see themselves as under attack from the traditional disciplines. This essay suggests a number of reasons for this, examining, in particular, the problem of cultural studies' "populism", and focusing on the difficult relationship between cultural studies and media studies.
While it is indisputable that we now live in mediated societies, that such grand social science concepts as citizenship, socialisation, authority and globalisation can only now be understood by reference to the media, it also remains true that we can distinguish between media studies and cultural studies approaches to contemporary life by reference to different academic identities and styles. From this perspective, cultural studies is not a discipline as such but an ongoing disciplinary critique. It is defined by its importance and its marginality.
Matkultur eller kulturmat?
Authors: Abnersson Veronica , Burstedt Anna
Published: October 2024

Is Food Culture a study area per se, is it something ethnologists are supposed to study or is Food Culture a construction of patterns that emerge in the researchers analysis of the empirical material?
This article is about how food ethnologists have been using the concept of food culture more as a given unity than as a result of a human processes. In comparison to this the article stresses contemporary food preconditions and how they, together with cultural theory about representation, discourses and reflexivity, influences a new understanding of the relation between food and culture. The conclusion of the text is that ethnological food research of today needs to discuss what is really meant with Food Culture and how the usage of the concept effects the results of the research.
Hur konstrueras den kvinnliga identiteten?
Authors: Broström Kirsi
Published: October 2024

The aim of this article is to analyze and discuss women's relationship to food, eating and cooking. I assume that food and eating practices have a primary role in the development and maintenance of femininity and women's identity, experienced through the body and the emotions. For the women, food and eating habits and preferences are not just matters of "fuelling" themselves. These are central aspects to women's subjectivity and their experiences of embodiment. That is why the meanings, discourses and practices around food and eating are worthy of interpretation. I am discussing the division of labour (cooking) and the responsibility within the family which are essential objects of study when focusing on the relationship between men and women.
This article is in part based on my diploma work in nordic ethnology which was finished during the autumn of 1999. To collect material for the diploma work I used a questionnaire ("A questionnaire about women's relationship to food and their bodies") with three pages of open questions. Most of the recipients were female university students, born in the 1970's. In analyzing the answers it is important to remember that they are not simply the subjective property of individuals but are also part of a shared sociocultural experience about being a woman in today's society.

What actually happened when vitamins were discovered, designed or defined as vitamins? What consequences did this have for thinking and action on the level of day-to-day life? This article, a presentation of a doctoral study in progress, focuses attention on the cultural consequences of citamins as expressed during the interwar years before the Norwegian nutrition campaign that promoted new and better nutrition. This propaganda had knowledge on vitamins as a necessary underpinning. This knowledge led to the creation of a new concept of health, in that food and health were linked in entirely new ways. This primarily affected the housewife in her day-to-day work; now it was no longer sufficient to get enough food, now the food also had to be properly composed with respect to vitamins.
In addition to focusing on the empirical topic — food and health — such a study may also shed light on how scientific knowledge is transformed in different cultural contexts. This article argues that food, particularly everyday food, is an extremely apt topic for such science-in-culture studies.
Functional Foods — mat eller medicin?
Authors: Rådström Ann-Louise
Published: October 2024

The food shops and the press in Sweden has recently been overflowed with a new type of food, called Functional Foods. These foods balances on the line between medicine and food and are produced with the intention that the consumers will stay healthy. But, it's difficult for us to choose whether we should go on looking for vegetables and whole-wheat bread or give up and buy the "ready-stuff". It's not just the product we buy, it's a lifestyle, and different sorts of food signals different things depending what the trend is at the moment. It visualizes the need to belong to a group or be defined as a special type of person. It is interesting to look at functional foods, the marketing and the consumers way of dealing with these strange things, ice-cream with oatmeal, juice with calcium or maybe yoghurt full of bacteria. But who is buying this? Maybe the producers have made a new type of food for the already healthy people and failed to create products that "saves the undernourished". These thoughts about functional foods is supposed to be a part of a bigger project about our fast-changing food society where the connection between food and health is strong in many ways.

Relevant Physical Factors for Estimation of Volatile Organic Compounds Emissions from Floating Storage and Offloading
Authors: Seekramon Chalee , Jarusutthirak Chalor , Klongvessa Pawee
Published: October 2024

Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) have harmful effects on human and the environment. Floating storage and offloading (FSO) vessels are recognized as one source of VOCs emissions. This study investigated the physical factors used to estimate the emission of VOCs from an FSO based on wave height, ambient temperature, storage temperature, storage quantity, Reid vapor pressure (RVP), and daily incoming rate. Daily data on the natural gas liquids were collected on the FSO. A second-order multiple linear regression (MLR) with interaction effects was used to analyze the relationship between the studied physical factors and VOC venting volumes. The set of relevant physical factors and interaction effects that produced the maximum adjusted coefficient of determination was selected. The significant factors and interaction effects were investigated based on a t-test at a significance level of 0.05. The results showed that the significant factors for estimation of the venting volume, corresponding to VOCs emissions, were wave height, storage temperature (which was related to the daily incoming rate), and RVP. Venting volume was negatively related to storage temperature, especially when the storage temperature was low, and wave height was positively related to venting volume when the RVP was high. The interaction effect showed that wave height was important when RVP was high and the second-order MLR showed that the storage temperature was important when it was low.

Published: October 2024

Seawater fluctuation caused by climate change and domestic wastewater can affect the cultivation of green mussel (Perna viridis), which is a valuable marine food in the Indo-Pacific region. Hence, this research aimed to investigate the variation of seawater parameters in green mussel cultivation areas and the impact of changes in those parameters on mussel production. Three cultivation sites, pond, coastal line, and estuarine, were chosen to represent three cultivation methods. At each site, seawater variables and green mussels were collected monthly from January to December 2019. The results showed that seawater parameters varied significantly acroos the cultivation sites, and seasonal variations were found to be related to intense rainfall. The highest mussel production was found in estuarine areas followed by coastal line areas and ponds, which were 0.25±0.05, 0.01±0.003, and -0.01±0.02 kg/m2/month, respectively. Statistical analysis revealed that salinity and conductivity were factors that positively influenced mussel production potential. In estuarine areas, the salinity was suitable for mussel growth and there was abundant food for mussels; subsequently, estuarine areas had the highest mussel production. Meanwhile, ponds were not suitable for mussel cultivation due to low salinity. Although coastal line areas had the highest salinity, chlorophyll a levels were low, indicating a lack of food available for mussels. Consequently, the production potential was low. These results can assist farmers to select the best available areas for green mussel culture. Finally, in time of unstable seawater quality caused by environmental crises, our results can be useful for identifying the impact of seawater quality on green mussel production in each cultivation area.

Implementing learning analytics in higher education: A case study on challenges and requirements
Authors: Zine Abdelkhalek , Kaaouachi Abdelali
Published: October 2024

Learning analytics (LA) offers an effective solution for leveraging big data to increase retention rates, reduce quality gaps, improve resource allocation, monitor skills development, and raise graduation rates. To evaluate the potential benefits of this solution, this research explores learning analytics in Moroccan higher education, focusing on the implementation needs and challenges. The methodology is based on qualitative research conducted through 10 interviews with teachers from a multidisciplinary faculty in Nador. The findings of this research reveal that few professors use learning analytics tools on their own initiative. They express a need for guidance, support, and user-friendly tools. Most respondents also mentioned various challenges to adopting learning analytics, such as the inability to align learning analytics with teaching practices, ethical and confidentiality concerns, and limitations in data value, all of which can hinder the effectiveness of learning analytics. Additional challenges include a heavy workload, lack of necessary resources, insufficient technological and pedagogical skills, and difficulties in operating learning analytics tools. Furthermore, managing unorganized data and addressing the heterogeneity of databases and datasets present significant obstacles. Lastly, inadequate preparation on the part of faculty members can impede the full realization of the advantages of learning analytics. To address these challenges, several recommendations have been formulated, including the need for training, guidance, the development of policies, models, and frameworks for the adoption of learning analytics, and the certification of learning analytics tools that are useful and easy to use.

Published: October 2024

Physics Education Technology Project (PhET) simulation gives students the opportunity to explore and experiment with scientific phenomena in a safe, virtual setting. This study investigated the effects of PhET improvement on the retention ability of grade six learners in state of matter (SOM). To achieve the aim of the study sixty-four grade six learners were considered from four randomly selected primary schools in Umkhanyakude District in KwaZulu-Natal province. The study utilized a quasi-experimental design with a non-equivalent pre-test, post-test, and delayed post-test approach. Data were collected using the Phase Change of Matter Test (PCMT) administered during the pre-test, post-test, and delayed post-test phases. Participants in the control group were taught using the traditional teacher-centered approach, while the experimental group was exposed to the SOM PhET simulation. The reliability coefficient of 0.75 was determined using Cronbach’s alpha reliability coefficient. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, including mean, median, standard deviation, and range, to summarize the pre-test, post-test, and delayed post-test scores for both groups. A paired samples t-test was also conducted for each group to compare the pre-test and post-test scores, as well as the post-test and delayed post-test scores, to assess whether there was a significant improvement in retention following the intervention. The findings indicated that using PhET as an intervention effectively enhanced conceptual understanding of SOM. There was a statistically significant difference in the retention ability after treatment with a PhET simulation, compared to the control group. Based on the findings, it is recommended that students actively interact with simulations rather than merely observing demonstrations. When students engage directly with these tools, they achieve a deeper understanding and improved learning outcomes.

Integrating Particle Swarm Optimization with Cloud Computing Task Scheduling for Optimal Resource Utilization
Authors: Kumar Mrinal , Shinde Amol Ashokrao
Published: October 2024

Therefore, the purpose of this research paper is to investigate the incorporation of PSO into schedule task on cloud computing systems. Generally, conventional techniques of scheduling encounter inefficiencies that inflict lighting energy waste and augment energy expenses. This paper outlines a novel, PSO-based scheduling algorithm that uses real feedback from current context to properly assign resources for tasks and improve metrics in terms of task time requirement, resource consumption, energy saving, makespan, and average task waiting time. Polynomial and numerical analysis of the proposed real time PSO- based solution applied to a simulated Cloud environment reveals that it is far superior to conventional methods such as FCFS and Round Robin. Thus, the results prove that the proposed PSO algorithm can be deemed a relatively strong solution of the problem of effective distribution of tasks in cloud computing environments while also providing the schedule that is responsive to the fluctuations in the work load

An important aspect of trimaran ship research is to obtain an optimal model through the analysis of resistance and power requirements. Trimaran ships have the advantage of a wide deck surface and crew members can move freely. In this study, the monohull and trimaran ships were calculated using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) approach. This study explores the optimal model for a fishing boat trimaran with a smaller power requirement than that of monohulls. The computational fluid dynamics (CFD) approach was used to calculate the resistance and power requirements of the ship. The resistance of the trimaran hull affects the performance of the ship, and the selection of the right hull minimises its interaction with the fluid. The study found that trimarans with S/L = 0.2 and 0.3 reduced the resistance by 33.42% and 68.94%, respectively. This study aims to improve the performance and catch efficiency of the traditional Indonesian fishing industry by selecting an appropriate trimaran hull. The selection of an appropriate trimaran hull can optimally affect the performance of a ship and result in abundant catches.
(In)Transitivity, Semantic Change, and Reanalysis: The Diachrony of the Spanish Verb “Volver”
Authors: Vatrican Axelle
Published: October 2024

Our aim in this paper is to explain the progressive semantic change of the Spanish verb volver from the 13th century until the 21st. We will show that at the beginning, its unique use is a transitive one, from Latin until the 14th. Then it acquired an intransitive use in the 15th. We will claim that the semantic change meaning of this verb from the transitive use to the intransitive, ending by the grammaticalization of the verb with the creation of a periphrasis (volver a + infinitive), is part of a ‘reanalysis’ process of the semantic relation between both cases the agent and the patient in the eventive structure and, consequently, of the subject and the object complement in the syntactic distribution. The semantic core which conveys a metaphorical or a spatial path toward a goal (“to make a rotary motion, to turn”) is unchanged. We claim that the telic character of the verb allowed it to impose itself and to replace tornar.
The Grammaticalization of Numeral ‘One’ in Slavic: From Quantification to (Non-) Referentiality
Authors: Seres Daria
Published: October 2024

The article presents a corpus-based investigation of the distribution and interpretation of ‘one’ + N combination in six Slavic languages (Russian, Ukrainian, Czech, Serbian, Macedonian, and Bulgarian). The study aims at determining whether there is an ongoing process of grammaticalization of the numeral ‘one’ in Slavic, and, if so, at what stage of grammaticalization is each language situated in the synchrony. In order to categorize the relevant uses of ‘one’ a system of semantic annotation is devised. The results of the study show different degree of grammaticalization of ‘one’ in the languages under study, with Russian and Ukrainian being in the beginning of the path (with occasional referential uses attested), Czech and Serbian being in between (with a significant frequency of referential uses), and Bulgarian and Macedonian being the most advanced on the scale (with a few non-referential uses). None of the languages has a fully grammaticalized indefinite article.
The Romance Subjunctive Schema. Grammaticalisations and Constructionalisations in a Comparative CxG Analysis of Spanish, Catalan, French, and Italian
Authors: Radatz Hans-Ingo
Published: October 2024

This article applies the principles of Construction Grammar (CxG) to the problem of describing the various subjunctive-constructions in the Romance languages. Departing from a very basic mother construction, all other uses are derived from it via the concept of constructionalisation (c.f. Traugott & Trousdale 2013). The description thus takes the form of a cognitive network that can be represented as a graphic in which all ramifications are represented in a way that allows a synoptic vision of all subjunctive schemas of a given language. These charts are then used for a comparison between various Romance languages. The most important difference appears to be the development of the Honorific-Imperative Construction in all those languages that have developed a formal address-system based on morphologically 3rd person pronouns (Vd., você, vostè); in these languages, morphological subjunctives have given rise to a whole new paradigm of “neo-imperatives”.
Light Verbs and Grammaticalization. Evidence From the Catalan Light Verb “Agafar”
Authors: Ginebra Jordi
Published: October 2024

Determining the linguistic nature of light verbs – whether they are lexical or grammatical units – is still an open question. Light verbs are often characterised as delexicalized. Thus, grammaticalization would be the process by which a lexical verb (lexical unit) assumes the value of a light verb (grammatical unit). However, it has also been argued that light verbs are just regular verbs, albeit ones with little semantic specification. If they are, there can be no grammaticalization, at least in principle. Nevertheless, even if light verbs are considered lexical verbs, the way they evolve invite to relate them to grammaticalization processes. In this paper I contribute to the debate by providing evidence on the historical evolution of the Catalan verb agafar ‘to take, to catch, to pick, to get’. The conclusion is not firm, but suggests that the description of light verbs can benefit from the framework of grammaticalization.

Partisipasi politik sangat penting dalam usaha meningkatkan kesadaran politik masyarakat, oleh sebab itu dibutuhkan kerjasama pimpinan gampong dalam hal ini keuchik dan masyarakat dalam rangka keikut sertaannya dalam politik. Namun disisi lain keuchik gampong merasa serba salah ketika dekat dengan partai politik atau Calon Anggota Legislatif karena dianggap memanfaatkan jabatannya dalam pemilihan anggota legislatif. Tujuan dilakukan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui dan menganalisis peran dan kendala Keuchik dalam meningkatkan partisipasi politik pada Keuchik Gampong Tumbo Baro dan Gampong Lam Ara Cut Kecamatan Kuta Malaka Kabupaten Aceh Besar dalam meningkatkan partisipasi politik masyarakat pada Pemilu Legislatif tahun 2014. Pendekatan yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah kualitatif, sementara teknik pengumpulan data dilakukan melalui observasi dan wawancara secara mendalam dengan informan serta Dokumentasi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa Peran Keuchik dalam meningkatkan partisipasi politik masyarakat pada Pemilu Legislatif tahun 2014 pada Gampong Tumbo Baro dan Gampong Lam Ara Cut Kecamatan Kuta Malaka Kabupaten Aceh Besar berjalan dengan baik dan netral baik dari segi pendidikan politik pada warganya maupun sosialisasi bahkan diskusi dengan melibatkan tokoh politik yang netral.

A goiabeira (Psidium guajava L.) é a mais importante frutífera da família Myrtaceae, originária de regiões tropicais americanas e difundida por todo o mundo. Objetivou-se com este estudo avaliar e comparar as características físico-químicas dos frutos de goiaba da cultivar Paluma produzida em diferentes pomares nos municípios de Capão do Leão e Pelotas no Rio Grande do Sul. As avaliações ocorreram com frutos de goiaba da safra 2024, estando estes totalmente maduros. Foram avaliados quanto ao seu diâmetro longitudinal e transversal (cm), massa fresca (g), firmeza de polpa (N), pH, sólidos solúveis (SS), acidez titulável (AT) e fenóis totais. A cultivar avaliada apresentou diferenças significativas com relação ao local de cultivo para as variáveis diâmetro longitudinal e transversal (cm), massa fresca (g) e firmeza do fruto (N). O diâmetro longitudinal variou entre 7,37 e 6,1 (cm), enquanto para o diâmetro transversal foram encontrados valores entre 6,62 e 5,35 (cm), a massa fresca encontrada foi de 152,68 e 118,15 (g) e a firmeza de polpa entre 13,07 e 12,9 (N). O mesmo foi observado no teor de sólidos solúveis com resultados de 12,7 e 10,6 (ºBrix) e fenóis totais 72,5 e 60,2 (mg EAG 100g-1). Em contraste não houveram diferenças significativas para pH (4,00/4,01) e acidez titulável (0,40/0,38 g ác. cítrico 100g-1). Embora, os valores de diâmetro (cm), massa fresca (g), SS e fenóis totais tenham sido superiores no pomar comercial quando comparados ao pomar didático a cultivar Paluma apresenta características físico-químicas adequadas tanto para o consumo in natura quanto para o processamento independente do local de cultivo.
