The impact of EU citizenship on migrant integration
Authors: Gregurović Snježana
Published: January 2020

Migrations undertaken by highly skilled persons assume an important position in knowledge societies, especially in large global cities where there is a need for their work. This article is based on qualitative research conducted in Brussels in 2014, working with a sample (N=20) of highly skilled migrants from Southeast Europe. Through applying Bosswick and Heckmann's (2006) analytical framework, this research examines the influence of European Union citizenship on the system and social dimension to the integration of the researched group. Under system integration, the gaining and enacting of citizenship rights receives special attention, while with social integration, the identificational dimension to integration is in focus. The research results demonstrated that the possession of EU citizenship influences the integration outcome – to a greater extent in the case of system integration, and to a lesser extent with social integration. Given that the integration of highly skilled migrants in Brussels occurs within "international strata", rather than a national culture framework, the classic integration model does not function in Brussels. In the case of the integration of highly skilled migrants in a global city such as Brussels, it was shown that migrants do not attach an importance to (national) citizenship as long as they have EU citizenship. Highly skilled migrants from third countries do attach an importance to national citizenship so long as they do not have a work permit with which they are regulating their stay and provided that they plan to settle for a long time in Belgium.
Socially engaged architecture of the 1950s and its transformations
Authors: Galjer Jasna , Lončar Sanja
Published: January 2020

This paper investigates the links between architecture and its social purpose and focuses specifically on the building and institution known today as the Public Open University Zagreb (Pučko otvoreno učilište Zagreb – POUZ), which was previously called Moša Pijade Workers' (and People's) University (Radničko (i narodno) sveučilište "Moša Pijade" – RANS). The paper examines the innovative and experimental nature of the architectural concept of socially engaged architecture as part of the societal modernisation of the 1950s and 1960s, as well as changes to its function up to the present post-socialist condition. The authors discuss the complex relationship between employees, beneficiaries, programmes and the architectural design and the political, economic and social context. The aim is to explore sociocultural categories and how culture, work, education and the city interacted with one another during different time periods. By using theoretical and methodological insights gleaned from cultural anthropological approaches to space and architecture, the paper demonstrates how the identity, significance and values ascribed to the production of public space were shaped, medialized and modified through time.
Inventory of the of St. Peter Church in the Antakalnis written by Peter Korkonos in 1609
Authors: Pietrzkiewicz Iwona
Published: January 2020

In 1609 Peter Korkonos, the new rector (parish priest) of the St. Peter Church in Vilnius wrote an inventory of this church. It’s the oldest inventory of the church we know today. Two fragments of this document have been found in the collections of the Archive of Vilnius Archdiocese and The Martynas Mažvydas National Library of Lithuania. In this edition these two fragments of the historical source have been combined and commented. Particular attention has been paid to the problem of books, which were the property of the church at this time. The most relevant facts from the history of St. Peter Church are also mentioned in this work. The first wooden church founded about 1492–1507 burned down. The management of the parish and the years of restoration were documented by Peter Korkonos. After the death of the parson St. Peter Church was handed over to the Canons Regular of the Lateran. The presented sources have not been widely used in academic theses concerning the church. They complete former knowledge related with formation of the local library.
The Inventory List of the Library of the Vilnius Old Regula Carmelite Monastery at the St. George‘s Church: Publication of the Source
Authors: Kuliešienė Erika
Published: January 2020

This article presents the oldest source of information about the Vilnius Old Regula Carmelite Monastery library: the inventory list of the St. George’s Church library, compiled in 1677. Even though, in Polish historiography, considerable attention is accorded to the Vilnius St. George‘s Carmelite Monastery and its library, the 1677 inventory has not been included into any catalogue of inventories of the GDL’s church libraries. This inventory was for the first time introduced to the scientific community by A. Pacevičius. This article gives a short overview of the history of the Vilnius Carmelite Monastery at the St. George’s Church and of its library from its foundation to closure. The period of the compilation of the inventory is characterized as a crucial moment in the development of the library. At that time there were eight books in the church’s library, and 58 books, in the monastery’s library. Here we are publishing a facsimile of the inventory’s text and a transcript of the text in the language of the original. In the commentaries, with the greatest possible exactness, we are recreating the book list from rather scarce elements of book descriptions. This oldest source for the history of St. George Monastery library will doubtless be of interest not only for scholars in the history of the GDL, but also for both Lithuanian and foreign researchers of monastic book culture.
The Influence of Recommendations in Social Media on Purchase Intentions of Generations Y and Z
Authors: Pauliene Rasa , Sedneva Karina
Published: January 2020

The aim of this study is to explore how the impact of recommendations in social media on intention to purchase varies between generations Y and Z. The research focuses on two types of online recommendations, namely online reviews and opinion leaders’ recommendations, and e-WOM, which refers to recommendations made by followers. It also aims to examine which of the two types predominates among generations. Based on various studies, a theoretical research model was developed as well as quantitative and qualitative research was employed. The research findings supported the idea that social media recommendations have an influence on purchasing intentions of consumers, however, the main managerial applications of this study are connected with the differences among consumers. Online reviews had been an influential source of information for Generation Y; however, it is losing its influential power towards shaping purchasing intentions. E-WOM is still important, thus brands and retailers are advised to develop and maintain branded communities in social media, encourage their consumers to share feedback not only in social media, but also in rating websites, apps and services. Retailers are advised to segment their target audience very carefully, as differences in generations’ social media habits and information adoption exist.
Lusofonias editoriais: os possíveis ethé discursivos de editores independentes
Authors: Gomes Letícia Santana
Published: January 2020

Buscamos encontrar nesta pesquisa, por meio das reflexões teóricas de Maingueneau (2008) e Amossy (2005), os possíveis ethé discursivos dos editores independentes de Língua Portuguesa. A partir do documentário Da minha língua vê-se o mar (Letícia Santana Gomes, 2017), realizado pela pesquisadora e corpus desta pesquisa, analisamos as entrevistas com os editores Alex Dau (Moçambique), Maria Mazarello (Brasil) e Vasco Santos (Portugal), em que foi possível encontrar os possíveis ethé discursivos dos editores de forma coletiva e singular. Acreditamos que o papel social revelado pelos depoentes foi a de evocação do imaginário da vinculação e da paixão da profissão com os sonhos de vida, uma predestinação ao ofício de edição. Percebemos, então, que o critério distintivo de “independente” vem também para que, como Mazza, Vasco e Alex, editores com ideias compartilhadas, de utopia e de resistência, possam buscar possíveis soluções para as suas inquietações, trazendo ethos de independência, resistência e credibilidade.
O éthos e o páthos na publicidade da Dove: uma construção sincrética
Authors: Lorenz Roseméri , Crestani Luciana Maria
Published: January 2020

Objeto de pesquisa desde a antiguidade clássica – na Retórica, de Aristóteles –, muitas são as teorias que, ainda hoje, sobre a construção do éthos e do páthos se debruçam, entre elas a semiótica greimasiana, aqui adotada. A partir de seus pressupostos, este estudo busca investigar que éthos e que páthos emergem da relação entre verbal e não verbal no discurso publicitário da marca de produtos de higiene e beleza Dove. Para isso, procede à análise de dois anúncios impressos, produzidos, respectivamente, em 2005 e 2016. Por meio do exame das marcas da enunciação recorrentes na superfície textual, manifestadas no seu plano de conteúdo e no de expressão, pretende-se, de modo mais específico, identificar que mecanismos atuam, bem como descrever a sua atuação, no processo de produção dessas imagens do enunciador e do enunciatário.
O dialogismo e a construção do ethos no discurso publicitário
Authors: De Araújo Juliana Geórgia Gonçalves , De Andrade Lia Raquel Vieira
Published: January 2020

Este trabalho tem como propósito analisar a capacidade de persuasão da publicidade frente ao consumidor, identificando as estratégias utilizadas à luz da Análise do Discurso de linha francesa. Selecionamos para a nossa análise anúncios impressos do detergente em pó OMO. Verificamos a construção do ethos no discurso publicitário como uma estratégia manipulativo-persuasiva utilizada pelo enunciador para persuadir o seu leitor-consumidor. A imagem foi criada para que o interlocutor possa se identificar com o ethos de uma mãe que quer proporcionar momentos felizes para o filho, mas sem se preocupar com as consequências dessas brincadeiras, como as manchas nas roupas. Desse modo, não será apenas com o quadro cênico que o leitor-consumidor irá se envolver, mas, fundamentalmente, com a cenografia criada pelo anúncio.
“A Ler Vamos…” e “L.E.R. Cãofiante”: eficácia de uma intervenção no 2º ano de escolaridade
Authors: Cruz Joana , Constante Patrícia , Lopes Elisa , Amaral Joana , Quintas Daniela , Mackaaij Maria José
Published: January 2020

Os percursos de aprendizagem formal da leitura são heterogéneos, devendo as dificuldades encontradas serem consideradas transitórias e passíveis de intervenção. No projeto “A Ler Vamos...” e “L.E.R. Cãofiante” esta concetualização das dificuldades dos alunos encontradas nos primeiros anos de escolaridade tem orientado a criação de estratégias de intervenção sistemáticas e baseadas cientificamente. Participaram no estudo 39 alunos do 2º ano de escolaridade dos concelhos de Matosinhos e de Silves, identificados como apresentando dificuldades na aprendizagem da leitura. Os alunos distribuíram-se por dois grupos experimentais e um grupo de controlo, existindo equivalência nos seus desempenhos antes do início da intervenção. Os alunos pertencentes ao grupo experimental beneficiaram de uma intervenção bissemanal de promoção de competências de consciência fonológica, descodificação leitora e fluência na leitura, sendo esta ação complementada com 15 minutos/sessão com recurso ao software Graphogame Português Alicerce. Esta intervenção decorreu entre novembro de 2016 e maio de 2017. A eficácia da intervenção foi avaliada através de um design com duas medidas repetidas no tempo e o fator grupo (recorrendo a anovas mistas). A análise dos resultados permite constatar a eficácia da intervenção. Para além dos resultados quantitativos obtidos, verificou-se que alguns dos alunos envolvidos nos grupos experimentais obtiveram uma evolução muito significativa, igualando os desempenhos médios das suas turmas, ao longo do ano letivo. Este estudo permite validar a intervenção realizada nos concelhos de Matosinhos e Silves, conjugando a construção de estratégias consideradas eficazes na promoção de competências basilares da leitura com as novas tecnologias. Neste artigo serão tecidas considerações sobre a concetualização subjacente à intervenção, bem como sobre as atividades realizadas e a possibilidade de generalização destas intervenções baseadas cientificamente.
Entre a finitude e a autenticidade: o ser-para-a-morte como indicativo de uma existência autêntica em “A morte de Ivan Ilitch”, de Liev Tolstói
Authors: Santos da Silva Rafael Lucas
Published: January 2020

O artigo propõe uma hipótese de leitura da narrativa “A morte de Ivan Ilitch” (1886), do escritor russo Liev Tolstói (1828-1910), a partir da analítica ontológica heideggeriana. Com base, especialmente, na categoria ser-para- -a-morte, exposta na obra Ser e Tempo (1927), focaliza-se a trajetória problemática da biografia de Ivan Ilitch, com o objetivo de demonstrar que o discurso narrativo desta novela encontra-se sobredeterminado pelas instâncias discursivas da finitude e autenticidade, que se articulam de maneira orgânica e formam um esquema estético reflexivo sobre a consciência da finitude representar ao sujeito o enriquecimento axiológico de seu processo existencial. Diante dessa análise hermenêutico-fenomenológica, a abordagem da biografia do personagem Ivan Ilitch, como sujeito que morreu sem lograr uma singularidade autêntica, permitiu-nos discorrer acerca da vulnerabilidade do sentido da existência e a negação da finitude presente tanto no discurso ficcional quanto no processo histórico-social.*** Between the finitude and the authencity: the being-to-death as manifestation of an authentic existence in “The death of Ivan Ilitch”, by Leo Tolstoy ***The article proposes a hypothesis of reading the narrative “The Death of Ivan Ilitch” (1886), by the Russian writer Leo Tolstoy (1828-1910), based on the Heideggerian ontological analysis. Based mainly on the being-to-death category, exposed in the work Being and Time (1927), the problematic trajectory of Ivan Ilitch’s biography is focused, with the objective of demonstrating that the narrative discourse of this novel is, overdetermined by the discursive instances of finitude and authenticity, which articulate in an organic way, and form a reflexive aesthetic scheme on the consciousness of finitude representing to the subject the axiological enrichment of its existential process. In view of this hermeneutic-phenomenological analysis, Ivan Ilitch’s biographical approach, as subject that died without achieving an authentic singularity, allowed us to talk about the vulnerability of the meaning of existence and the denial of finitude present in both fictional discourse and the historical-social process.Keywords: Russian Literature; Finitude; Authenticity; Being-to-death.
The Fascist Phenomenon. National Legionary State between laws, journals, memoirs, and the Jewish repression between 20-23 January 1941
Authors: Groza Cristian-Alexandru
Published: January 2020

The aim of the study is to show the evolution of the National Legionary State from its beginnings to its fi nal form of revolt (20-23rd January 1941). This type of state was created on 14th September 1940 by the royal wish of Michael I of Romania, who was infl uenced by General Ion Antonescu. The study has the purpose to show how anti-Semitism can transform itself from a philosophy concept, through the ideas of Nae Ionescu, to a state ideology. The main documents which I studied are based on archives, the constitution of the state, during the period mentioned in the title, and the journals of general Ion Antonescu, or main political fi gures, and the notes written by Filip Browner, known better as Filip Brunea Fox, in his City of massacre. Journal of Legionary, Rebellion and Crime. This study is important because it analyzes a totalitarian regime that was made possible by the intervention of political arrangements alongside the help of the Legion of the Archangel Michael, founded by the Corneliu Zelea Codreanu in 1927.

Authors: Martínez Benito Raúl , Sánchez Sánchez Galo
Published: January 2020

El presente artículo forma parte de una tesis en elaboración en la cual se investiga los factores de eficacia del Aprendizaje Cooperativo (AC) en Educación Física (EF). El objetivo es mostrar los resultados de una primera revisión, sobre los problemas que encuentra el profesorado al aplicar esta metodología; y unido a ello, presentar las principales propuestas encontradas para su aplicación en la clase de EF de una manera progresiva y eficaz. Se ha procedido al vaciado de fuentes documentales, para posteriormente catalogar y clasificar aquellos aspectos objetos del estudio: problemas y propuestas de implementación. Se acudió a las siguientes bases de datos: Teseo, Google Académico, Dialnet, EBSCOhost, Scopus y Web of Science. La revisión fue desarrollada a finales del año 2018. Los resultados demuestran que varias dificultades pueden aparecer al aplicar esta metodología. Se han agrupado en siete categorías: 1) Falta de experiencias y habilidades del alumnado; 2) Experiencias negativas previas del alumnado; 3) Falta de formación del profesorado; 4) Problemas de organización a nivel de centro; 5) Oposición familiar; 6) Falta de control de aula; y 7) Expectativas poco realistas del cuerpo docente. En lo relativo a las propuestas de aplicación, se han encontrado dos que presentan un proceso concreto para llevar a cabo la metodología de una manera progresiva y eficaz en EF, definiendo las variables a influir y las condiciones necesarias a generar, para minimizar o solucionar los problemas iniciales: El enfoque de la Coopedagogía Motriz (Velázquez, 2014, 2015, 2018), y el Ciclo del Aprendizaje Cooperativo (Iglesias, González y Fernández, 2017).
La argumentación en la formación disciplinar de estudiantes universitarios de Geografía
Authors: Díaz Juan Pablo , Mignone Aníbal Marcelo , Bar Aníbal Roque
Published: January 2020

El presente artículo científico tiene como objetivo describir los modos en que argumenta el estudiantado avanzado de Geografía y, asimismo, comprender cómo los supuestos epistemológicos explícitos y subyacentes en el plan de estudios, orientan la construcción de dichas argumentaciones. El diseño metodológico de la investigación es descriptivo y privilegia el abordaje cualitativo. La muestra estuvo integrada por veintiséis estudiantes de una universidad púbica de la ciudad de Resistencia (Argentina). Las fuentes de recolección de datos fueron el Plan de Estudios de la carrera de Geografía, y el resultado de producciones argumentativas elaboradas por el estudiantado. Se concluye que el plan de estudios, orientado fuertemente hacia la Geografía física, otorga condiciones para la construcción de buenas argumentaciones en dichas temáticas, por parte del alumnado. Se advierte, no obstante, que dichas prescripciones curriculares soslayan otras perspectivas geográficas que habilitarían a una formación más integral de los futuros geógrafos.
Proposing a Theoretical and State-of-the-Art Didactic Model to Balance Oral Communication Fluency and Accuracy in English as a Foreign Language
Authors: Robaina Yaynel González , Díaz Larenas Claudio
Published: January 2020

The profile of English as a Foreign Language (EFL) teacher education programs in Chile requires graduates to communicate effectively and master phonetic-phonological, lexical, morpho-syntactic, semantic, and pragmatic aspects of the English language. Graduates should possess an advanced level of oral proficiency which entails an adequate balance of fluency and accuracy in oral communication. Attaining a correct balance between oral fluency and accuracy from the start of EFL pre-service teacher training programs is currently a goal of Chilean Universities. The objective of this article is to analyze EFL oral communication development and propose a theory-based didactic model to address and overcome EFL teacher constraints in Chile (first year EFL pre-service teachers) regarding fluency and accuracy in oral communication development. The proposed didactic model is based on a theoretical revision of constructs in Second Language Teaching literature. The proposed model contributes to the developing research that can support the progress of fluency and accuracy in EFL pre-service teacher oral communication, which is limited by second/foreign language teaching theories, methodologies and approaches which require further study.

Authors: Veytia Bucheli María Guadalupe , Flores Linda Gladiola , Moreno Tapia Javier
Published: January 2020

El empleo de las Tecnologías de la Información y la Comunicación (TIC) se ha incrementado en el ámbito educativo significativamente en la última década, una metodología que utiliza como recurso las TIC es la clase invertida, en la cual el estudiantado aplica la teoría y conceptos presentados en videos, y el profesorado desempeña un papel de guía y mediador. El objetivo del trabajo fue presentar los resultados de la aplicación de la clase invertida en la asignatura de Informática 1, en un grupo de estudiantado de la escuela preparatoria No. 1 de una institución pública del Estado de Hidalgo. Los sujetos de estudio fueron 90 estudiantes del primer semestre. Se empleó la metodología de investigación – acción en cuatro etapas: 1) Plan de acción, 2) Desarrollo de la acción, 3) Observación de la acción y 4) Reflexión. Se diseñaron, desarrollaron y evaluaron tres situaciones didácticas para trabajar la asignatura de informática que permitió fortalecer la competencia uso de la tecnología, a partir del empleo de la plataforma educativa Schoology, clips de Apple, MovieMaker y Youtube. Entre los principales hallazgos se encontró que el 92% prefiere la clase invertida a clases tradicionales, el 8% prefiere el sistema tradicional. Mediante el empleo de esta metodología se logró atraer la atención de estudiantes con la grabación de videos por parte del cuerpo docente para la comprensión de los temas, además de que hubo un incremento de aprobación del estudiantado en esta asignatura.
Nivel de actividad física en el entorno escolar: observación basada en el Sistema de Observación del Juego y Tiempo Libre (SOPLAY)
Authors: Álvarez Bogantes Carlos Álvarez , Villalobos Víquez Grettel , Rodríguez Méndez Diego , Herrera Monge María Fernanda , Delgado Valverde Antonio
Published: January 2020

El propósito de esta investigación fue determinar los niveles de actividad física observada en los recreos escolares según el sexo, el tipo de ciclo escolar y la modalidad de horario en seis escuelas públicas de la provincia de Heredia. Este estudio descriptivo de corte transversal utilizó el Sistema de Observación del Juego y Tiempo Libre (SOPLAY) en una muestra de 1098 escolares. Para el análisis de los datos, se aplicó un análisis de corte descriptivo y uno no paramétrico de U-Mann Whitney para comparar dos muestras independientes por sexo, ciclos lectivos y tipo de horario escolar, con un criterio estadístico de p <0,05. Los resultados de este estudio muestran que las niñas prefieren ejecutar actividades más sedentarias que los niños. Y que la niñez de centros educativos de horario ampliado es más sedentaria que la que cursa en un horario de doble jornada. En la variable ciclo lectivo, no se encontraron diferencias significativas. En conclusión, los niveles de inactividad física en la niñez, si bien no se han incrementado drásticamente, son hallazgos a los que se debe prestar atención. Además, los recreos continúan siendo un elemento poco contribuyente para promover la práctica de actividad física en el entorno escolar.

Authors: Reyes Torres Guillermo Alberto , Saavedra Jorge H. , Aguayo-Vergara Margarita
Published: January 2020

El Aprendizaje Basado en Equipos o por sus siglas en inglés conocido como: Team Based Learning (TBL), es una metodología de aprendizaje activa, donde el estudiantado construye el conocimiento a partir de tareas que desarrollan en equipos dinámicos, asumiendo un rol participativo. Esta metodología fue aplicada en estudiantes de pregrado del curso de Balances de Materia y Energía pertenecientes al programa de Ingeniería Civil Química de la Universidad del Bío-Bío, Chile. TBL fue implementado con el propósito de facilitar el trabajo en equipo, y mejorar el desempeño del estudiantado con respecto a las tradicionales clases magistrales. El trabajo fue desarrollado en la última unidad temática del curso para los años 2014 y 2016 y fue contrastado con los resultados alcanzados en los años 2015 y 2017, años en los cuales no se aplicó la metodología. Los resultados evidencian que las calificaciones finales promedio para el curso alcanzaron su valor más alto en el año 2016 (4.9), año en el cual se implementó la metodología por segunda vez. De igual manera las calificaciones en esta unidad fueron en promedio 6.5 y 6.6 para los años 2014 y 2016 frente a 6.0 y 4.9 para los años 2015 y 2017 respectivamente (en una escala de puntuaciones que tiene como valor mínimo 1.0 hasta un máximo de 7.0). Los resultados del cuestionario de percepción revelan que la metodología facilita el trabajo en equipo, formando un ambiente cooperativo de trabajo, donde más del 90% del estudiantado manifestó estar conforme con la metodología.

La presente investigación se desarrolló con el objetivo de descubrir cuáles son los estilos de aprendizaje dominantes en estudiantes de Matemática Superior de la carrera de Ingeniería Eléctrica en la Universidad de Costa Rica, entre los años 2018 y 2019. El conocimiento de los estilos de aprendizaje dominante es de utilidad para promover la mejora en los procesos de enseñanza en esta población, y dirigir de forma óptima los esfuerzos por procurar el aprendizaje significativo. El estudio se ejecutó con el siguiente procedimiento: Elaboración del estado del arte sobre estilos de aprendizaje, especialmente en educación superior, para conocer su metodología y alcance. A partir de este, se determinó la conveniencia y viabilidad de aplicar el instrumento propuesto por Felder-Silverman, para categorizar a la muestra de 122 estudiantes de acuerdo con su estilo predominante. Posteriormente, se organizó el procesamiento de datos y su análisis, en el cual se destaca la técnica de agrupamiento, para descubrir el estilo de aprendizaje dominante. De acuerdo con las categorías de Felder-Silverman, el estilo de aprendizaje dominante en esta población de estudiantes es de tendencia visual (en un 55,7% de la población) y sensorial (en un 45,9% de la población), lo cual es un indicador de la preferencia hacia el aprendizaje basado en datos y procedimientos establecidos, usando materiales concretos y visuales.
La figura del profesorado-investigador en la reconstrucción de la profesionalidad docente en un mundo en transformación
Authors: Reis-Jorge José , Ferreira Marco , Olcina-Sempere Gustau
Published: January 2020

La implicación del profesorado de primaria y de secundaria[1]1 como investigadores de su práctica docente, considerada objeto de discusión a lo largo de varias décadas, constituye una práctica cada vez más importante en el mundo actual. Los resultados de la investigación sobre el conocimiento y el desarrollo profesional del profesorado apuntan a la importancia de la construcción de nuevos conocimientos, en respuesta a los diferentes desafíos y necesidades impuestos por la complejidad de los contextos educativos. Existe un amplio consenso por parte de los que defienden la implicación del profesorado como investigadores como una estrategia de toma de decisiones basada en la evidencia, la evaluación e innovación de las prácticas. Sin embargo, parece que existe menos consenso en relación con el concepto del papel de docente-investigador/a, así como en los contextos y formas de participación del profesorado como investigador. En este artículo, tenemos como objetivo reflexionar sobre el papel y las perspectivas actuales del profesorado-investigador en cuanto reconstructor de la profesionalidad docente, teniendo como base un marco conceptual formado por lo que designamos los pilares de la arquitectura educativa en el mundo actual. Esta reflexión nos permite concluir que la adopción por parte del profesorado de una actitud investigadora sobre la práctica, debe ser fundamentalmente un proceso sistemático de reflexión y crítica sobre la eficacia de su trabajo, no teniendo necesariamente que obedecer a la rigidez de los criterios tradicionales de la investigación académica.

Histochemical investigation of the esophagus of the Wild bronze turkey (Meleagris gallopavo)
Authors: Yovchev D. , Penchev G.
Published: January 2020

The aim of the present study was to investigate the thoracic part of the esophagus in the bronze turkey, using Masson’s trichrome stain and Alcian blue-PAS staining. Thirty-six clinically healthy bronze turkeys (eighteen males and eighteen females) were studied. The groups of the birds were at age 1, 7, 14, 28, 35 and 49 days. Each group consisted of three male and three female birds. The histological features of the organ were similar in the studied groups. It consisted of tunica mucosa, tunica submucosa, tunica muscularis, and tunica serosa. There were no specifics in the organ regarding the sex and the age of the birds. The esophageal glands in all of the studied groups, demonstrated intensive PAS and AB reaction, because of the mucous, produced by the epithelial glandular cells. Lamina propria exhibited a weak PAS reaction, visible in all ages, either in males, either in females.

A monitoring study of some main blood parameters of a flock of free-range guinea fowls has been conducted. The following results (depending on sex and laying intensity) have been established: hemoglobin content – between 145.8 (males - before peak of laying intensity) and 98 g/L (females - before the peak of laying intensity), hematocrit – between 43.8 (males – before the peak of laying intensity) and 28.8% (females – before the peak of laying intensity), glucose – between 11.7 (males – before the peak of laying intensity) and 8.24 mmol/L (females – end of the laying period) and total protein content – between 5.86 (females – during the peak of laying intensity) and 3.30 g/dL (males - during the peak of laying intensity).
Full Regeneration of Maxillary Alveolar Bone Using Autogenous Partially Demineralized Dentin Matrix and Particulate Cancellous Bone and Marrow for Implant-Supported Full Arch Rehabilitation
Authors: Umebayashi Mayumi , Ohba Seigo , Kurogi Tadafumi , Noda Sawako , Asahina Izumi
Published: January 2020

Autogenous partially demineralized dentin matrix (APDDM) has been reportedly used as a superior bone graft material. A 52-year-old Japanese man who exhibited severe periodontitis was referred for oral rehabilitation. He underwent wide-range anterior maxillary alveolar bone and bilateral sinus floor augmentation by grafting of a mixture of APDDM and particulate cancellous bone and marrow (PCBM); subsequently, he underwent implant-supported full arch rehabilitation. He has been followed up for 4 years after placement of the final restoration without any complications, and his physiological bone volume has been maintained. APDDM constitutes an alternative treatment that may increase the volume of graft material and might prevent rapid resorption of PCBM, because APDDM served as a scaffold for osteoblasts from PCBM. When possible, it may be useful to apply APDDM as a graft material with PCBM for large-volume alveolar bone regeneration.
Medical education in Nigeria and migration: a mixed-methods study of how the perception of quality influences migration decision making
Authors: Awire Eddy , Okumagba Mamodesan T
Published: January 2020

This article was migrated. The article was marked as recommended. Medical education in Nigeria faces numerous challenges and problems; a lack of a coherent admission policy, inadequate funding, poor planning, and erosion of values have led to a general perception of low standards and quality. In the face of these, questions arise as to their influence on medical students' aspirations and intentions to migrate after graduation. This study uses a sequential mixed-method design to examine the extent to which the perceptions of the quality of medical education in Nigeria affect the aspirations and plans of Nigerian medical students to migrate after graduation. 211 final year students (out of a potential 580) participated in a survey; aged between 20 and 45. While the survey showed that the students perceived medical education to be of sufficiently good quality across a spectrum of variables, interview respondents described a dysfunctional medical education that failed to meet their aspirations. The perception of a declining standard in medical training is a major issue for Nigerian medical students and graduates. The inability to halt the decline in the quality of medical training in Nigeria, therefore, leaves many medical students and graduates feeling inadequately trained, and inadvertently feeds their desires and aspirations to migrate abroad after graduation.

Published: January 2020

This article was migrated. The article was marked as recommended. Purpose: The aim of this study is to investigate the medical student perception about their QoL, in order to be aware of their own problems. Methods: We applied three instruments: SF36 health questionnaire; a QoL self-perception questionnaire and a questionnaire regarding self-awareness and coping strategies to medical students from first to fourth year. Results: 203 students answered the questionnaires (women 64.5% and median age 20 years). Students self-perception about QoL was overestimated in most of the domains except in physical role functioning (p <0.001). There was a significant difference between genders, and men showed a greater deviation from SF36 to QoL self-perception for mental health domain than women (p=0.04). Regarding questionnaire about self-awareness, most of them felt that the way they think is consistent with what they act frequently, know their own needs and evaluate their QoL as good or great. In relation to coping strategies, seek out other people was one of the most common functional strategies used. When analyzing such results between genders, women increased their food intake more than men (P = 0.002). Conclusion: Student self-perception about QoL is mistaken and overestimated.

Published: January 2020

Reading
comprehension is the gateway to acquire knowledge, therefore, it has attracted
attention in academic environment. Silent reading is accepted as the major
reading mode, and it is associated with the idea of reading for comprehension.
In the related literature there exist contradictory studies on the efficiency
of silent reading. Thus the present research investigates students’ attitudes
towards silent reading in terms of its effectiveness in reading comprehension,
reading for pleasure, and concentration. The present study was conducted with
120 preparatory school students from different levels at a state university in
Bursa. In the study, a mixed method research design was used. Quantitative
data were gathered via a questionnaire and qualitative data were gathered via
an interview from 12 participants for a deeper understanding of the students’
attitudes towards the effectiveness of silent reading. According to the
results, the participants have a moderately positive level of agreement that they
can grasp the meaning easily and concentrate better while reading silently.
Earthquake Source Parameters in Southwestern China and Their Rheological Implications
Authors: Wang Qingdong , Chu Risheng
Published: January 2020

Earthquake depth distribution provides key information on rheological behavior of the crust, which usually shows a brittle–ductile transition at a depth of about 10 km. In this study, we use the generalized cut-and-paste method to obtain source parameters of 571 earthquakes in the Sichuan–Yunnan region of China between 2009 and 2017. We were able to successfully determine focal mechanisms, moment magnitudes, and centroid depths of 536 earthquakes with a minimum moment magnitude of 3.2. Our moment magnitudes and centroid depths are systematically smaller than the magnitudes (Ms and mb) and hypocenter depths from the China Earthquake Network Center and International Seismological Centre catalogs for M≥4.0 earthquakes. The earthquake depths in the Sichuan–Yunnan region are mostly in a 5–9 km range, with an average at 7.6 km. About 23% earthquakes have centroid depths <5  km and are concentrated in the southern Sichuan basin. Only very few earthquakes are deeper than 19 km. Compared with the earthquake depth distribution in southern California, the Sichuan–Yunnan region has many shallower earthquakes. The depth distribution suggests that the brittle–ductile transition in the Sichuan–Yunnan region is shallower than the transition beneath southern California, which is probably due to the existence of newborn faults in the Sichuan–Yunnan region.
Luta pela instrução e disputas políticas em Portugal na segunda metade do século XIX
Authors: Gonçalves Neto Wenceslau , Magalhães Justino

Neste estudo aborda-se o processo de criação de uma escola para o género feminino, na freguesia de Pereira do concelho de Ovar, oferecida por um empresário local. O benemérito era o empresário João Rodrigues de Oliveira Santos, regressado do Brasil e dono de uma fábrica de chapéus, naquala freguesia. O processo teve início em 1873, mas arrastou-se por vários anos, envolvendo autoridades municipais e nacionais. O combate ao analfabetismo, em Portugal, envolvia esforços das autoridades políticas, mas mereceu o contributo de entidades e individualidades civis, abrindo escolas. A criação de escolas estava regulamentada e obedecia a um conjunto de princípios e requisitos formais, que haviam sido consignados por Portaria de 1866, quando da aceitação e execução do legado Conde Ferreira. No caso, em estudo, observa-se uma controvérsia entre os intervenientes, que assumiu contornos de disputa entre facções políticas, nos planos local e estatal, como comprovam fontes oficiosas e depoimentos da imprensa local.
O Liceu fabrica 'Fadas do lar'. Atuações da Mocidade Portuguesa Feminina num liceu lisboeta.
Authors: Remédios Maria José
Published: January 2020

A política educativa salazarista começa a desenhar-se a partir de 1936, substituindo-se o Ministério da Instrução Pública pelo Ministério da Educação Nacional, que assume educar as crianças, as raparigas e as mulheres portuguesas, enquadrando-as nos valores ideológicos do Estado Novo, para o qual a existência da mulher se confundia com a da família. A par dum conjunto de instrumentos legais, de onde se destaca a proibição da coeducação no ensino primário, são criadas duas organizações estatais – a Obra das Mães pela Educação Nacional e a Mocidade Portuguesa Feminina (MPF) –, para assegurar a modelação do caráter das futuras jovens e mulheres portuguesas. Pretendemos mapear atuações da MPF num liceu lisboeta, de frequência estritamente feminina, desde a sua implementação até aos finais dos anos 60 do século passado, período durante o qual a frequência de atividades da MPF oferecidas pela escola passou de obrigatória a facultativa. Explorando, essencialmente, um conjunto de fontes não trabalhadas e processando-se o trabalho hermenêutico no horizonte concetual da História da Educação das Mulheres, a reconstituição daquelas atuações permite-nos afirmar que, apesar de plurais, são concertadas para a produção de boas esposas e mães de família, garantindo-se que no liceu se fabriquem fadas do lar.

Demographic and clinical profile of children with severe acute malnutrition admitted in a tertiary care hospital in Mahbubnagar, India
Authors: D. Archana Reddy , V. V. Lakshmi Aparnadevi
Published: January 2020

Background: All possible efforts are being made by the governments, and other agencies to reduce the burden of these problems of malnutrition and deaths associated with it but still it remains a challenge. Severe acute malnutrition continues to constitute an important risk for mortality and morbidity among the under five children. Objective of the study was to study the profile and risk factors of severe acute malnutrition of the under five children in a tertiary care hospital setting.Methods: Hospital based cross sectional study was carried out among 60 under five children with severe acute malnutrition who were admitted for difference causes in the Pediatric wards of SVS Medical College and Hospital, Mahabubnagar. A detailed history and physical examination were done. Anthropometric indices like weight, length/height, MUAC and weight for height were recorded and analysed using WHO growth charts.Results: Majority of the children with severe acute malnutrition were found in the age group of 1-2 years i.e. 48.3%. Males were more (69%) compared to females (31%) and this can be attributed to the hospital based cross sectional nature of the present study. Only 21.6% of the children were completely immunized for age. Majority of the children were found to have grade IV type of malnutrition i.e. 38.3%. Majority of the children presented with fever in 71.6% of the cases. Majority of the children had gastrointestinal related comorbidity in 54.6% of the cases.Conclusions: Incomplete immunization, low social class, inappropriate feeding practices in young age of <1 year are important risk factors of severe acute malnutrition.

Published: January 2020

Background: The prevalence of obesity is increasing globally and one of the important factors associated with obesity is thought to be thyroid dysfunction. The objective of the present study was to find the incidence of subclinical hypothyroidism in overweight and obese individuals and to assess the relationship between the TSH levels and anthropometric parameters.Methods: A cross sectional study was conducted among 100 adults attending the hospital selected by a systematic random sampling method. Standard protocols were used to assess the laboratory and anthropometric parameters. Written informed consent was taken from the subjects and institutional ethical clearance was obtained before starting the study.  Results: Of the 42% males and 58% females who were studied, 24% of the subjects had a BMI more than 24.99. 6% and 2% of the study subjects were having subclinical hypothyroidism and hypothyroidism respectively. There was a significant association between hypothyroidism and increased BMI values, waist circumference and waist hip ratio. Conclusions: A highly significant association was found between the serum TSH levels and the Body Mass Index, Waist circumference and Waist Hip ratio. The mean TSH levels were higher in the obese  when compared to normal subjects.

Published: January 2020

Background: Melasma is an acquired disorder which presents as light brown to dark muddy brown macules (hypermelanosis) symmetrically and bilaterally on face mainly in areas which are exposed to sun and is seen more commonly among women. Chemical peels are said to be second line of management in melasma among which glycolic acid peel is considered as a gold standard. Aim of present study was to analyse the therapeutic response of epidermal melasma to 70% glycolic acid peel.

Methods: 30 subjects were included in the study. Baseline melasma area and severity index (MASI) score of each epidermal melasma patient was recorded and were treated with 70% glycolic acid peel once in 3weeks for 3months and analysed response after 3 months using MASI scores.

Results: Peak incidence of melasma was seen between age groups 31-40 years with female to male ratio 9:1, malar pattern being the most common pattern with majority of the patient’s duration of illness >1 year. 30% had positive family history. 26.6% had history of daily sun exposure >1 hour. 63% reduction of MASI score present. Most common side effects were erythema and burning.

Conclusions: 70% glycolic acid along with sunscreen showed significant results in the improvement of melasma with 63% reduction in MASI score 12.97±5.15 to 4.69±1.92.
