La comunicación científica y rol en la protección de la Amazonía ecuatoriana
Authors: López Cruz Caridad Dailyn , Arteaga Crespo Yasiel , García Quintana Yudel
Published: September 2023

El presente trabajo tuvo por objetivo reflexionar sobre el rol de la comunicación en la promoción de los resultados de la ciencia y la tecnología, que tributan a la preservación del medio ambiente y la biodiversidad. Para ello, se asumió como marco contextual la Amazonía ecuatoriana, y como marco referencial, la gestión de la comunicación para el desarrollo. A partir de estas coordenadas, se partió de una serie de preguntas e inquietudes identificadas en los actores, gestores o decisores de la ciencia y la tecnología, y en las políticas públicas en Ecuador. Al respecto, el estudio expuso de manera conductual un grupo de conceptos y preceptos relacionados con esas necesidades identificadas, con el fin de orientar a los interesados en la temática. Como conclusiones, puede decirse que, las estrategias comunicativas diseñadas para fomentar la preservación del medio ambiente y la biodiversidad en la Amazonía ecuatoriana no han sido lo suficientemente efectivas para motivar el cambio deseado en virtud del desarrollo sostenible. Por tal razón, estas deben ser evaluadas y rediseñadas teniendo en cuenta no solo los resultados científicos de quienes han estudiado la realidad imperante en la región, sino también en eterno diálogo con las culturas ancestrales asentadas en ella.

Authors: Kumar Pawan , Kumar Sarvesh
Published: September 2023

Objective: Sustainable development in the modern day must inevitably include green development as it provides the best means of addressing the dual issues of protecting the environment and boosting the economy. This article aims to introduce the episodes of green finance to discuss the role of the green economy in attaining sustainable development objectives and address particular problems of sustainable finance and environmental, social, and governance concerns of green financing. A significant challenge is evaluating the success of the 2030 Agenda and the role played by public policy. Several projects have arisen to link budgetary expenditures and Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) performance at all levels since it is widely understood that budgets are one of the most effective weapons available to administrations to drive forward this contribution. Governments have lately implemented new policies relating to GE to optimize its effect.

 

Method: Thus, this paper suggests an Environmental Regulations-based Sustainable Green Development (ER-SGD) strategy for protecting the environment and boosting the economy.

 

Result: This essay uses environmental regulation as a moderator to experimentally explore the influence strategy of political competitions on the efficacy of green development from several viewpoints.

 

Conclusion: This article covers bolstering performance evaluation, optimizing energy savings and lowering emissions, and promoting business technology R&D.
The Role of Social Entrepreneurship in Addressing Global Social Challenges
Authors: Kumar Sarvesh , Yadav Sunil Kumar
Published: September 2023

Objective: Social entrepreneurship has emerged as a powerful driver for positive change in an era characterised by tremendous global challenges. The research highlights the need of social entrepreneurship in creating novel solutions that balance market efficiency and social impact, highlighting the limitations of established approaches. The complexity of problems like poverty, healthcare inequities, and environmental degradation calls for fresh viewpoints and approaches. However, obstacles such as limited resources, worries about scalability, and striking a balance between financial viability and social impact can make social entrepreneurship a difficult terrain to navigate.

 

Method: A new method called Driven Collaboration Networks with Impact Assessment Metrics (DCN-IAM) is proposed. This method provides a structured although adaptable structure for coming up with and trying out novel solutions. The DCN-IAM method assures that offered solutions are additionally new yet practical and effective by fusing creative problem-solving with rigorous impact evaluation.  The following instances show how social entrepreneurs might use DCN-IAM to develop effective, scalable solutions to pressing global problems.

 

Result: In addition, the technique's viability is confirmed by a simulation analysis by comparing its results to those of well-established social entrepreneurship models (SEM). The research project provides social entrepreneurs, policymakers, and stakeholders with the ability to drive revolutionary change by introducing the novel DCN-IAM technique and exhibiting its applicability through instances of success.

 

Conclusion: The simulation research demonstrates that the method can be more effective than conventional methods, arguing for the continuous combination of innovation and impact assessment in solving global problems.

Magnetoresistance Features at the Magnetic Field-Induced Phase Transition in FeRh Thin Films
Authors: Perov Nikolai , Komlev Aleksei , Makarin Rodion , Maltseva Viktoria , Volegov Alexey , Zverev Vladimir
Published: September 2023

The causes of the appearance of first-order magnetic phase transitions remain a mystery. FeRh alloy is a classical material where a first-order magnetic phase transition occurs. The authors of this article studied the phase transition from the antiferromagnetic state to the ferromagnetic state in FeRh alloy. Comparison of the magnetometry and transport properties results allowed us to determine a number of differences in the mechanisms of the phase evolution during magnetic field and temperature induced transition. This article notes the priority of the rearrangement of the micromagnetic structure of the ferromagnetic phase as a result of the induction of a phase transition by a magnetic field. The main feature of the magnetic field induced phase transition compared to the temperature induced one is the change in the micromagnetic structure of the ferromagnetic phase. The growth of a ferromagnetic phase with less scattering fields leads to asymmetric behavior when a phase transition is induced near the metastable state. We also focused on the importance of taking into account the effect of magnetostriction when analyzing the evolution of the phase transition, which leads to the irreversibility of the phase transition near a zero magnetic field.

Authors: Okwuego Sopuruchukwu Peace , Orjinta Hope Ifeoma
Published: September 2023

This study investigated empirically the moderating role of audit committee on firm attributes and reporting lag of quoted money deposit banks in Nigeria for a period of ten years covering from 2012 to 2021. The study adopted ex-post facto research design and data sourced from selected firm’s yearly reports. To proxy firm attributes the study used return on asset (ROA), asset tangibility (ASSTAN), firm growth (FGRWT), firm age (FAGE), and firm size (FSIZE). Reporting lag was measured using the firm’s reporting lag within the period of review while audit committee was measured by the audit committee size. The study conducted some preliminary analysis such as descriptive statistics, correlation analysis to ascertain the normality and presence of multi-colinearity in the data collated and used the ordinary least square regressions analysis to analyze the data collected. Findings show that the moderating role of Audit committee on ASSTAN, FAGE, and FSIZE positively but insignificantly affect the level of reporting lag of quoted Money Deposit Bank in Nigeria while ROA and FGRWT, positively and significantly affect the level of reporting lag of quoted Money Deposit Bank in Nigeria hence audit committee moderating firm attributes can impact on the level of reporting lag of Money Deposit Bank. The study recommends that firms should have an efficient audit committee to boost a strong internal control and accounting system and also abide by all the regulations, including accounting standards, so as to reduce auditors’ reporting lag

Presentación: la empresa de investigar
Authors: González Mariano
Published: September 2023

En la actualidad, el significado de la palabra empresa tiende a ser reducido para referirse a una institución económica que busca las ganancias a través de la producción de bienes o servicios. Esta reducción del significado, hace olvidar que un sentido más general de la palabra designa el esfuerzo conjunto, el empeño humano organizado. Expresiones poco usadas actualmente como la ‘empresa de explorar’, más o menos sinónima a la ‘aventura de explorar’, señalan este uso amplio pero original y correcto del término. Al iniciar esta presentación con la expresión ‘la empresa de investigar’ se quiere colocar un acento fundamental en el carácter social del acto de la investigación y de producción del conocimiento científico. Con esto no se busca disminuir o ignorar el esfuerzo, talento, conocimiento, responsabilidad y compromiso de los investigadores que diseñan, ejecutan y difunden los resultados de sus estudios, sino recordar la naturaleza social de la práctica de la investigación, que usualmente se produce a partir de procesos de formación que, por su naturaleza, son actividades sociales, con valores y normas que son producto del consenso (o la imposición) de intereses, dentro de marcos institucionales que le brindan recursos y como parte del empeño por comprender e intervenir en la realidad humana.
Impacto de la educación a distancia y de la educación virtual en estudiantes de primaria: la perspectiva docente
Authors: Sánchez Lizeth
Published: September 2023

La pandemia por Covid 19 obligó a las instituciones educativas a pasar de la modalidad presencial a una modalidad a distancia y/o virtual. Las instituciones públicas optaron por la modalidad a distancia enviando tareas a casa, mientras que las instituciones privadas eligieron continuar su ciclo en modalidad virtual. La experiencia de este cambio tuvo diversos efectos para toda la comunidad educativa. En el año 2022, algunas instituciones, principalmente privadas, han retornado a las clases presenciales o híbridas. Hasta el momento se desconoce el impacto que este cambio de modalidad ha provocado en los alumnos/as, por ello en este trabajo se presenta un análisis de lo que maestros han observado en alumnos, al regresar a las clases en modalidad presencial. Este es un panorama inicial de los efectos, que a mediano o largo plazo, se podrán observar con mayor claridad. Se contó con información empírica obtenida por medio de un cuestionario aplicado a 46 maestros que están trabajando en modalidad presencial o híbrida. Entre los principales hallazgos se puede mencionar que los maestros observan retraso en los contenidos de acuerdo al grado, dificultades en las habilidades sociales y físicas (motricidad). Este trabajo está dirigido a maestros, estudiantes de psicología, psicólogos y público en general por lo que se trató de hacer con un lenguaje accesible para su mejor comprensión.

Cambios en la violencia política y el control social durante el conflicto y la posguerra en Guatemala
Authors: González Mariano
Published: September 2023

La violencia política ha tenido un peso fundamental en la historia del país, pero diversos cambios sociales, políticos y económicos influyen en su extensión y expresiones. Un Estado contrainsurgente la ejerció durante el conflicto armado (1960-1996) frente a la disidencia y la insubordinación organizada por el movimiento guerrillero, pero también frente a la oposición política legal y el movimiento social: organización campesina, indígena, sindical, estudiantil, religiosa y de partidos políticos. Con la transición democrática, el fin del conflicto y los ajustes económicos estructurales, el modelo económico ha cambiado y se ha configurado un Estado capturado, cooptado y estructuralmente corrupto, por lo que las expresiones de violencia han variado y se producen en situaciones más focalizadas (territorios y actores). El objetivo del presente ensayo es realizar un contraste entre la violencia política ejercida por el Estado contrainsurgente durante el conflicto y la ejercida por un Estado capturado, cooptado y corrupto en la Guatemala del siglo XXI, así como explorar algunas de las formas de dominación ejercidas actualmente. Se puede afirmar que los niveles de violencia política han disminuido, pero que la dominación se mantiene a través de un amplio conjunto de mecanismos de control.

The double-edged sword pattern of leadership behaviors in digital transformation: Identifying positive and negative outcomes for leaders and employees using a group Delphi study
Authors: Lettner Nicole , Weber Ellen , Lanzl Julia , Gilli Katharina , Güttel Wolfgang
Published: September 2023

Leading employees in times of digital transformation is challenging as it requires leaders to enact different behaviors and roles. Further, the prevalence of hybrid and remote work environments has exacerbated the situation. Employing a group Delphi study with 42 leaders, we address the hitherto insufficiently researched question of which leadership behaviors might suit such contexts and which impact they have on different organizational members. We provide a structured overview of appropriate task-oriented and relation-oriented leadership behaviors and their influence on individuals. Hereby, we uncover a double-edged relationship between well-intended leadership behaviors and individual-related outcomes by revealing both desirable and undesirable consequences for employees and leaders. Consequently, we challenge the assumption that enacting these behaviors always leads to beneficial outcomes and highlight that combining different leadership behaviors is necessary to face the challenges.
Über die Verdeckung. Zur Analyse von Ein- und Ausschlussverhältnissen unter Bedingungen gesellschaftlicher Kontingenz
Authors: Bender Saskia , Flügel-Martinsen Oliver , Vogt Michaela
Published: September 2023

Der Artikel schlägt den Begriff der Verdeckung als eine Schlüsselkategorie zur kritischen Analyse von Ein- und Ausschlussverhältnissen in demokratischen Gegenwartsgesellschaften vor. Demokratische Gegenwartsgesellschaften werden dabei als historisch kontingente Gebilde verstanden, die ihre historische Gewordenheit und Veränderbarkeit teilweise verdecken, um ihre Ordnungen zu stabilisieren. Verdeckte Ein- und Ausschlussverhältnisse spielen dabei eine besondere Rolle, da demokratische Gegenwartsgesellschaften einerseits durch eine inklusive Gleichheitssemantik geprägt sind, während andererseits Ein- und Ausschlussverhältnisse fortdauern, die in eine konstitutive und unauflösbare Spannung zu egalitären Inklusionsvorstellungen geraten. Wir untersuchen dabei zum einen in Auseinandersetzung mit Foucault, Laclau/Mouffe und Rancière theoretische Ansätze, die wichtige Inspirationsquellen für eine Theorie der Verdeckung darstellen. Zum anderen wenden wir uns empirisch dem edukativen Feld zu, da sich in ihm infolge stark ausgeprägter Inklusionsforderungen die Spannungen zwischen Ein- und Ausschlüssen in besonders intensiver Weise zeigen.
Antisemitismus in Deutschland: Notwendige Differenzierungen in der Migrationsgesellschaft
Authors: Fischer Jannik M. K. , Wetzels Peter
Published: September 2023

Aktuell wird in Deutschland vermehrt über die Verbreitung von antisemitischen Vorurteilen sowie die Entwicklung der Anzahl registrierter Straftaten und Gewaltvorfälle mit antisemitischem Hintergrund diskutiert. Die Daten des Hellfelds der polizeilich registrierten, politisch motivierten Kriminalität (PMK) verweisen insofern auf Anstiege registrierter, antisemitisch motivierter Straftaten. Opferberatungsstellen berichten gleichfalls über Zunahmen der Meldungen betroffener Opfer. Seitens des zuständigen Bundesinnenministeriums wird insoweit auch der Antisemitismus bei in Deutschland lebenden Menschen mit muslimischer Religionszugehörigkeit besonders in den Blick genommen. Differenzierte Analysen, die über das registrierte Hellfeld hinaus die Frage einer besonderen Belastung von Migrant:innen oder Muslim:innen mit Blick auf die Verbreitung entsprechender Einstellungen untersucht haben, sind bislang allerdings nur begrenzt verfügbar. Die Klärung dieser Frage erscheint sowohl für die Konzeption zielgerichtete Formen der Prävention als auch für die Gestaltung politisch-rechtlicher Interventionen zur Reduzierung von Antisemitismus in Deutschland relevant. Im folgenden Artikel wird auf Grundlage der Daten einer im Jahr 2022 durchgeführten bundesweit repräsentativen Befragung mit n=4 319 Personen untersucht, wie verbreitet unterschiedliche Formen antisemitischer Vorurteile in Deutschland sind. Der Umstand, dass diese Erhebung große Oversamples muslimischer Migrant:innen einerseits sowie nichtmuslimischer Migrant:innen anderseits enthält, wird genutzt, um auf einer breiten Datenbasis auch die Frage zu verfolgen, inwieweit migrationsspezifische Hintergründe für Antisemitismus erkennbar sind bzw. ob diesbezüglich religionsbezogene Besonderheiten mit Blick auf Menschen muslimischen Glaubens bestehen. Die Ergebnisse verweisen darauf, dass – auch nach statistischer Kontrolle der Effekte soziodemografischer Merkmalen sowie von Diskriminierungs- und Marginalisierungserfahrungen – unter in Deutschland lebenden Muslim:innen signifikant erhöhte Raten antisemitischer Einstellungen festzustellen sind. Es sind allerdings ganz erhebliche Binnendifferenzen zu beachten. Es sind vier gut unterscheidbare religiöse Orientierungsmuster bei Muslim:innen identifizierbar, für die sich im Hinblick auf das Ausmaß antisemitischer Einstellungen große Unterschiede zeigen. Implikationen dieser Befunde für die Politik sowie für die Praxis der Prävention von Antisemitismus werden erörtert.

Published: September 2023

: Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) begins in early childhood and has short-term and long-term effects in later life. Deficits in social communication, social interaction, and limited and repetitive behaviors characterize this disorder. We aimed to develop and design a registration system for ASD patients in Hamadan Province to have comprehensive and valuable epidemiological data for researchers about the frequency, distribution, and causes of ASD. This epidemiological information can help target prevention measures and plan care. By designing and developing a patient registry system for ASD, valuable uniform epidemiological information about the web of causes and consequences of ASD is available. The next step is to utilize valid and reliable information for public health, clinical, or policy purposes.
Efficacy of Peer-group Support on Resilience and Self-esteem of Adolescents with Parents with Mood Disorder: A Randomized Controlled Trial
Authors: Assarian Fatemeh , Panjehpour Tayebeh , Rahmani Anahita , Ghoreishi Fatemeh , Rahimi Habibollah
Published: September 2023

Background: Over 21% of children live in households where at least one parent has a mental illness. Peer-group support is one of the programs designed for children to protect them from the consequences of parents’ mental diseases and aims to increase children’s knowledge of mental illnesses and strengthen their adaptability. Objectives: This study aims to examine the effectiveness of peer-group support on the resilience and self-esteem of adolescents whose parents have mood disorders. Methods: This randomized clinical trial was conducted in clinics affiliated with the Kashan University of Medical Sciences on adolescents aged 12 - 18 years whose parents suffered from mood disorders. The participants were divided into the intervention and control groups. In the intervention group, a psychiatric assistant held 90-minute sessions every week for eight consecutive weeks. Participants in both groups answered two questionnaires (Connor and Davidson Resilience and Rosenberg Self-Esteem) before and after the intervention. Results: Based on our results, except for the subscale of resilience: trust in individual instincts, there was no significant difference in the scores obtained by the adolescents in the two study groups after the intervention; however, the scores obtained showed elevation compared to the baseline. Participants felt more relieved and reported an increase in their awareness of mental illnesses after participating in peer-group sessions. Conclusions: Peer-group support for eight weeks increased the self-esteem and resilience scores of adolescents with parents with mood disorders. However, these increases were not statistically significant, requiring studies with larger sample sizes to obtain more accurate measurements.

Teaching Public Philosophy as Course Texts
Authors: McAuliffe Jana ,   Philosophy Documentation Center
Published: September 2023

In this essay I advocate for the pedagogical value of public philosophy. In public essays, philosophers craft short arguments in clear prose that avoids disciplinary specific technical terms. Such texts are pedagogically valuable both because they teach students philosophical ideas and also because they offer students a template for philosophical argumentation upon which to model their own writing. Here I report on some of the pedagogical practices I have used for teaching public texts to advanced and introductory level undergraduates in order to demonstrate how public philosophy serves as a valuable resource for the teaching of philosophy that can help students develop their capacity for engaged philosophical thinking and the effective communication of philosophical ideas.

The tremendous economic growth in Malaysia since 1990s saw the rapid urbanization of Klang Valley. However, this impressive growth leads to social and environmental problems such as air pollution and squatters. While social, environmental and sustainability accounting and reporting have experienced a resurgence of interest especially in the private sector, the application of such development in the public sector are relatively new and much less investigated. This paper studies the social and environmental information disclosures by a local authority in the Klang Valley and the nature as well as intensity of the social and environmental activities carried out by the local authority is examined. A content analysis of its annual reports is conducted and social responsibilities information are categorised into four main dimensions adopted from the Bursa Malaysia CSR Framework namely, community, environment, workplace and marketplace. The findings suggested that the community dimension is the most extensively disclosed followed by environmental information whereas that of the workplace is the least disclosed. These findings contrasted to those observed of PLCs in general which established that the workplace dimension scores the highest among the four dimensions. Future research need to be undertaken to investigate this discrepancies.
