Storyline and Compositional Peculiarities of Hakan Günday’s Novelism
Authors: Repenkova Mariya Mikhailovna
Published: June 2020

The paper considers architectonics of two most famous novels by Hakan Günday “Ziyan” (“The Harm”) (2009) and “Daha” (“More”) (2013). The article analyses the novels’ chronotope, shows how specificity of spatial-temporal arrangement influences formation of the key personages’ images, justifies the thesis that H. Günday’s novelism belongs to the fictionalized prose genre. Scientific originality of the research lies in the fact that H. Günday’s novelism has not been previously investigated in the domestic Turkish studies. The following conclusions are justified: H. Günday is one of the most outstanding Turkish prose writers of the XXI century; acute social problematics of his works correlates with problematic fields of other representatives of the national fictionalized prose (Zülfü Livaneli, A. Ümit); when developing the main personages’ images, the writer focuses on their unstable psychical states often resulting in severe psychic disorders.

Authors: Sattarova Madina Rashidovna , Nurmukhametova Raushaniya Sagdatzyanovna
Published: June 2020

The aim of the research is to study the Tatar vocabulary relating to the naming ceremony. The study is novel in that it uncovers the linguocultural potential of the reviewed lexical-thematic group within the Tatar national language’s vocabulary. The collected lexical material is organised as lexical sets. By employing the method of linguocultural analysis it was possible to identify the cognitive peculiarities of the linguistic units’ functioning. The attained results showed that the lexical units pertaining to the naming ceremony are rich in content, which includes national and religious worldviews. The existing synonymic chain of the basic notions is attributed to the antiquity of the ceremony and its prevalence among various Tatar ethnic groups.

Specificity of Speech Influence in the English Political Discourse (by the Example of Boris Johnson’s Speech at the 74th Session of the UN General Assembly)
Authors: Khafizova Alsu Aleksandrovna
Published: June 2020

The paper aims to reveal specificity of verbal influence in the English political discourse. Stylistic expressive means are analysed by the example of the public speech delivered by the UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson at the UN General Assembly session. Novelty of the study lies in the fact that the means of speech influence in this type of discourse and Boris Johnson’s linguistic personality are still insufficiently investigated. The findings indicate that the political leader uses a wide range of lexico-syntactical stylistic devices and expressive means to influence the audience, to promote his country’s interests, thus continuing the English oratory traditions.

Dickens’s Outline in Dostoevsky’s Novel
Authors: Priima Ivan Fedorovich
Published: June 2020

The article aims at finding new parallels between Charles Dickens’s “Bleak House” and Fyodor Dostoevsky’s “The Brothers Karamazov”. After a thorough research of literature on the issue, the author, analysing the texts in a completely new way, finds much in common between the two novels: from certain characters to the basic plot construction. The obtained results show it was widespread European archetypes that Dostoevsky borrowed from Dickens. “The Brothers Karamazov’s” philosophical foundation is unique: the figure of Grand Inquisitor becomes a centre of a “wider plot” - the one the English novel does not have. The theory of declining aristocracy with its “dandyism” opposed to ordinary people’s values cannot be admitted a part of Dickens’s influence for Dostoevsky came to a similar theory before him.

Children - Centered Business Models in Tourism
Authors: Beisembayeva Alina , Kleber Daniel Marco-Stefan
Published: June 2020

Since 2016, a number of research activities on topics such as children’s tourism in Kazakhstan, family tourism in Dubai and children’s tourism in Dubai were conducted by the authors. During previous research and based on personal experience in Almaty and Dubai, the authors realized that in these cities, and most probably in these countries, the business model of children camps is different. In addition, the authors identified a diverse understanding of children’s tourism. The aim of this research is to explain children’s tourism, to identify children’s tourism products and the business models value. This research is done by analyzing secondary data, collected from diverse sources in Russian and English languages, which are giving the possibility to analyze the situation from different perspectives and to compare children-centered business models in tourism. One of the most widespread types of tourism is youth tourism, including schoolchildren, aged 7 to 17 years, who travel under supervision with different goals and objectives. Russian scientists believe that in the future, youth tourism has the potential to become one of the priority directions of tourism development. The economic advantages of this type of tourism can be identified as follows: schoolchildren and students travel usually happens in organized groups, rhythmically repetitive trips from year to year which facilitates business planning. The limitations of this research are that children’s tourism is not well explained in English scientific literature, as children’s tourism is usually understood as a part of family tourism in the English speaking society. The study of children in tourism is a relatively new endeavor in tourism studies. Usually, tourism research on children mainly focuses on children exploitation or on other negative effects of tourism on the social environment.
Self-Identity of Millennial Generation as Traveling and Tourism Lovers Case Study Concerning Demographic And Psychographic Map Of Tourism Communication
Authors: Suminar Jenny Ratna , Prasanti Ditha , Sutarjo Moch. Armien Syifaa
Published: June 2020

The millennial generation is in the range of 23 to 38 years, which is now a productive and attractive workforce group. It is interesting to be studied where one of their characteristics is prioritizing Work-Life-Balance. It is a term where the generation prioritizes a balance between the world of work and personal life compared to previous generations. They tend to choose jobs that are more flexible in terms of conditions and working hours. So they can have more free time with friends, family, or to develop a hobby as it is stated in the results of research conducted by Ng Schweitzer and Lyons (2010). It is reinforced by the statement that the characteristics that describe the next millennial generation are that they would rather spend money to get certain experiences rather than save to add assets. Of course, millennials generally prefer to travel around Indonesia and the world rather than save for investment. This research aims to: 1) Determine millennial's motivation for traveling; 2). Know how traveling is favored by millennials. The research uses a qualitative method with a phenomenological tradition where the data are collected by conducting in-depth interviews. The results of this study provide information about the demographic and psychographic data of millennials, which can be necessary for traveling and tourism businesses to understand who is the target in a pleasant and profitable business.

Cultural Life: Varieties, Selection, and Homeostasis
Authors: Baciu Dan Costa
Published: June 2020

Cultural life renews itself constantly, uniting people, and diversifying thought. In this process, new thought emerges, and new varieties depart further and further away from pre-existent types. To study this evolution, the present article defines large-scale variation and selection and models them as variation-selection processes. On this basis, empirical testing reveals that cultural life accommodates many parallel variation- selection processes. In support of cultural diversification, homeostatic regulation balances their interplay. Real-world effects are measurable in pervasive cultural phenomena: large-scale polarization, renegotiation of shared values, returning fashions, formative periods, cycles of growth and reform, common ethos, and beyond. To test predictions, data from hundreds of thousands of books, news, television, and social media have been collected, decoded, and enriched with geographical and historical information. The discovery of variation-selection processes and homeostatic regulation in cultural life only complements a larger set of discoveries that have united physics and biology into modern life science.
Compulsory face mask policies do not affect community mobility in Germany
Authors: Kovacs Roxanne , Dunaiski Maurice , Janne Tukiainen
Published: June 2020

There is currently a heated debate about whether the general public should be required to wear protective face masks to contain COVID-19. A key concern is that compulsory face mask policies will make the public feel safer, and may (due to risk compensation) undermine the most important public-health advice to contain COVID-19 – which is to reduce mobility and maintain social distancing. This study provides first evidence on the impact of compulsory face mask policies on community mobility. We use a difference-in-differences design, which exploits the staggered implementation of compulsory face mask policies by German states. We use anonymised GPS data from Google's Location History feature to measure daily mobility in public spaces. We find no evidence suggesting that compulsory face mask policies affect community mobility in public spaces in Germany. We can rule out even small increases in mobility that are larger than 0.03 standard deviations.
Testing the Buffering Effect of Social Relationships in a Prospective Study of Disability
Authors: Lucas Richard E. , Chopik William J.
Published: June 2020

Social support has been proposed to be a protective factor that buffers the losses that result from the experience of negative life events. The present study uses data from a large-scale Australian panel study (the Household, Income and Labour Dynamics in Australia study) to examine how life satisfaction changes following the onset of a disabling condition and then to test whether pre-event or post-event social support moderates reactions to this event. Results show that the onset of a disabling condition is associated with a large decline in life satisfaction but these changes are not moderated by pre-event social support. Post-event social support does moderate change in response to the onset of a disability, but ambiguities in the interpretation of this association must be considered.
The relation between preschoolers' vocabulary development and their ability to predict and recognize words.
Authors: Gambi Chiara , Jindal Priya , Sharpe Sophie , Pickering Martin John , Rabagliati Hugh
Published: June 2020

By age 2, children are developing foundational language processing skills, such as quickly recognizing words and predicting words before they occur. How do these skills relate to children’s structural knowledge of vocabulary? Multiple aspects of language processing were simultaneously measured in a sample of 2-to-5-year-olds (N=215): While older children were more fluent at recognizing words, at predicting words in a graded fashion, and at revising incorrect predictions, only revision was associated with concurrent vocabulary knowledge once age was accounted for. However, an exploratory longitudinal follow-up (N=55) then found that word recognition and prediction skills were associated with rate of subsequent vocabulary development, but revision skills were not. We argue that prediction skills may facilitate language learning through enhancing processing speed.

Authors: Park Alayna , Velez Clarissa V. , Kannan Kamini , Chorpita Bruce F.
Published: June 2020

This study explored how individuals were experiencing and responding to stress related to the COVID-19 pandemic in May 2020. Adults (18 years and older) living in the United States were recruited through Amazon’s Mechanical Turk, a crowdsourcing website that is commonly used for online survey administration. Participants (N = 408; 60% non-Hispanic White) completed an online survey regarding traumatic stress, functional impairment, and use and perceived helpfulness of various coping strategies. Results showed that 37% of participants endorsed clinically-elevated symptoms of traumatic stress. As many as 76% of participants reported changes in their daily functioning from before the pandemic to present, most notably in their number of social interactions, physical activity, and time spent working. To cope, participants reported engaging in safety planning and behavioral activation, which they also perceived to be helpful in managing stress. Avoidance coping strategies involving use of alcohol, tobacco products, or recreational substances were infrequently endorsed and perceived to be of relatively little help. These findings offer an initial, data-based glimpse into the mental health impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and shed light onto opportunities for promoting mental health and well-being during this unprecedented and multifaceted crisis.
Óbitos violentos e tentativas de suicídio por intoxicação exógena em mulheres
Authors: Melo Cristiane Magalhães de , Oliveira Thaís Salgado , Soares Marcela Quaresma , Bevilacqua Paula Dias
Published: June 2020

Considerando a violência contra a mulher como importante evento social e de saúde pública e o feminicídio como expressão mais extrema da violência de gênero, objetivamos problematizar o óbito por suicídio e agressões em mulheres como sentinelas da violência doméstica a partir da análise da relação entre óbitos por violências e causas mal definidas, intoxicação exógena por tentativa de suicídio e violência contra mulheres. O estudo, realizado em Viçosa-MG, entre 2010 e 2015, utilizou dados secundários sobre os eventos em questão relativos a mulheres residentes, obtidos de sistemas de informação em saúde. Os resultados apontaram que o perfil das mulheres se assemelha para os eventos analisados, sendo que, em geral, as mais acometidas eram pobres, pretas ou pardas, de baixa escolaridade e remuneração. A análise integrada demonstrou associação entre os eventos óbitos por agressões e violência (62,5%) e entre intoxicação exógena por tentativa de suicídio e violência contra mulheres (14,8%), confirmando o pressuposto de que a exposição a situações de violência predispõe as mulheres à morte por agressões e suicídio e, também, a tentativas de autoextermínio. Concluímos que análises integradas e sistemáticas dos dados provenientes dos sistemas de informação contribuem para o enfrentamento à violência contra as mulheres.
Entraves à implementação da Política de enfrenta à violência contra mulheres: um problema de governança pública
Authors: Avelino Victor Pereira , Barbosa Ycarim Melgaço
Published: June 2020

O artigo discute o processo de implementação de políticas públicas de enfrentamento à violência contra mulheres no Brasil a partir da perspectiva da burocracia de nível de rua representada por policiais civis e militares. Para compreender como os agentes de linha se comportam diante dos casos de violência doméstica contra mulheres, a pesquisa analisou os boletins de ocorrência que receberam essa tipificação criminal registrados no ano de 2019 pelas Polícias Civil e Militar do Estado de Goiás nos vinte e nove Municípios goianos que compõem a Região Integrada de Desenvolvimento do Distrito Federal e Entorno (RIDE/DF). Discutindo com a literatura sobre implementação de políticas públicas, intersetorialidade e burocracia de nível de rua, ficou evidenciada que a inexistência de um patamar mínimo de governança pública gera problema de agência em que, ao arrepio da Lei n.º 11.340/2006, policiais civis e militares definem de forma discricionária os casos de violência doméstica contra mulheres que receberão a atenção estatal, resultando na não apuração de mais de cinquenta e dois por cento dos crimes noticiados no universo pesquisado.

Authors: Wibowo Muhammad Ghafur
Published: June 2020

The aim of this study is to analyze the development of the budget deficit and current account deficit in Indonesia in the era of President SBY and President Jokowi and to compare between the two eras. This study also analyzes the relationship of twin deficits to the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and the interest rate (r). The analytical tool used was independent t-test (for comparison) and Vector Auto-Regressive (VAR). The data used comes from the International Monetary Fund (IMF), 2004:Q1-2018: Q3. The result showed that the budget deficit was the same in the two eras of government, but the trade balance deficit in the era of President Jokowi was far higher than before. The budget deficit has a significant effect on the trade balance deficit but does not apply otherwise (no causality). Variable gross domestic product and interest rates significantly influence both types of deficits.

Published: June 2020

With the purpose to determine the prevalence and significance of the influence of various clinical factors on the glycemic control of patients with diabetes mellitus type II, 118 case histories of a therapeutic hospital were analyzed. Analysis of the documentation included the identification of concomitant diseases and conditions, as well as the use of medicines that could directly or indirectly affect the level of HbA1c detected in the patient's blood. In the first case, the presence of such a pathology or condition was revealed in 35 patients (29.7% of the contingent). Moreover, in the 22s they influenced the direction of false understatement, and in 13, on the contrary, its false overestimation. Acceptance of medicines that had significant potential for falsification of the determined level of HbA1c was observed in 39 patients (33.1% of the examined). The quantitative values of the possible analysis error as a result of such influences are discussed. The need for a more thorough analysis of the upcoming course of medicinal therapy for patients with diabetes mellitus type II, including with the participation of a clinical pharmacist (pharmacologist), is indicated.

A novel model of cerebral hyperperfusion with blood-brain barrier breakdown, white matter injury, and cognitive dysfunction
Authors: Mansour Ahmed , Rashad Sherif , Niizuma Kuniyasu , Fujimura Miki , Tominaga Teiji
Published: June 2020

OBJECTIVE

Cerebral hyperperfusion (CHP) is associated with considerable morbidity. Its pathophysiology involves disruption of the blood-brain barrier (BBB) with subsequent events such as vasogenic brain edema and ischemic and/or hemorrhagic complications. Researchers are trying to mimic the condition of CHP; however, a proper animal model is still lacking. In this paper the authors report a novel surgically induced CHP model that mimics the reported pathophysiology of clinical CHP including BBB breakdown, white matter (WM) injury, inflammation, and cognitive impairment.

METHODS

Male Sprague-Dawley rats were subjected to unilateral common carotid artery (CCA) occlusion and contralateral CCA stenosis. Three days after the initial surgery, the stenosis of CCA was released to induce CHP. Cortical regional cerebral blood flow was measured using laser speckle flowmetry. BBB breakdown was assessed by Evans blue dye extravasation and matrix metalloproteinase–9 levels. WM injury was investigated with Luxol fast blue staining. Cognitive function was assessed using the Barnes circular maze. Other changes pertaining to inflammation were also assessed. Sham-operated animals were prepared and used as controls.

RESULTS

Cerebral blood flow was significantly raised in the cerebral cortex after CHP induction. CHP induced BBB breakdown evident by Evans blue dye extravasation, and matrix metalloproteinase–9 was identified as a possible culprit. WM degeneration was evident in the corpus callosum and corpus striatum. Immunohistochemistry revealed macrophage activation and glial cell upregulation as an inflammatory response to CHP in the striatum and cerebral cortex. CHP also caused significant impairments in spatial learning and memory compared with the sham-operated animals.

CONCLUSIONS

The authors report a novel CHP model in rats that represents the pathophysiology of CHP observed in various clinical scenarios. This model was produced without the use of pharmacological agents; therefore, it is ideal to study the pathology of CHP as well as to perform preclinical drug trials.
Sense of coherence and resilience for coping with stress in the group of juveniles referred to probation centres by family courts

Published: June 2020

The aim of this study was to analyse the relationship between the sense of coherence and resilience and the styles of stress coping and to determine which of the studied variables (comprehensibility; manageability; meaningfulness; optimistic attitude and energy; perseverance and determination in action; sense of humour and openness to new experiences; personal competences and tolerance of negative affect) was more important in predicting coping styles with stressful situations in the group of juveniles who had been referred to probation centres. Participants in this study were 210 juveniles from probation centres. The following research tools were used in the research: A. Antonovsky’s Orientation to Life Questionnaire, Resilience Scale by N. Ogińska-Bulik and Z. Juczyński, and Coping Inventory for Stressful Situations by N. S. Enlder and J. D. A. Parker. The research results show that sense of coherence and resilience play a predictive function for the style which focuses on the task, emotions, avoidance and strategy related to engaging in substitute activities and seeking contact with people. Building (by probation officers) the sense of coherence and resilience among juveniles involves better understanding of the surrounding world and the stimuli which come from it, understanding internal signals and increasing the sense of manageability and comprehensibility, enhancing the ability to use the own and the environmental resources as well as working on the sense of meaningfulness, i.e. the motivational aspect of functioning. Supporting components of resilience (optimistic attitude and energy; perseverance and determination in action; sense of humour and openness to new experiences; personal competences and tolerance of negative affect) through psychoeducational activities (in probation centres) enables better understanding of the own self and, consequently, using stress management strategies aimed at finding a positive solution to a particular situation.

The main purpose of the article is to establish the level of knowledge about fertility among female students of the University of Zielona Góra. The presented analyses used part of the empirical material from the project “The role of fertility assumptions in the formation of procreative intentions” carried out on a representative sample of full-time female students of the University of Zielona Góra. The respondents have the highest level of fertility knowledge related to changes in women’s reproductive abilities with age. However, it should be noted that their awareness in this aspect is rather medium. For the most part, they correctly identify the age at which the woman is most fertile and the age at which her ability to conceive is significantly reduced. However, the vast majority of respondents are convinced that the process of reducing the ability of women to become pregnant begins later than in reality. As for the other two dimensions of fertility knowledge – the dimension related to estimating the chances of getting pregnant and the dimension related to infertility – the women are characterised by their low or average level. Most of the respondents overestimate the chances of pregnancy of a young woman (up to 25 years old), who had unprotected intercourse at the time of ovulation and a woman who, aged 25–30, had unprotected intercourse regularly during a period of one year. More than half of female students are aware of the scale of infertility in Poland, but at the same time most of them overestimate the effectiveness of in vitro fertilisation. The results obtained are similar to those obtained by researchers from other countries. Therefore, it is necessary to postulate including to the educational program the knowledge about the specificity of the human body, which is characterised by limited ability to conceive a child and changes in the fertility level of women appearing with age.
