O objetivo deste artigo é identificar a ciência brasileira e seus benefícios no apoio aos serviços de nascidos vivos. É um processo integrado de revisão realizado por meio de bases de dados eletrônicas e portais de periódicos (Periódicos CAPES, Biblioteca Eletrônica SCIELO e Google Acadêmico). Os artigos foram selecionados por meio de uma busca on-line e sete artigos que atenderam aos critérios de inclusão foram selecionados. Verifica-se que a literatura publicada procura identificar e descrever os resultados alcançados através do apoio CPN às mães e aos bebés, além da satisfação com estes serviços. Verificou-se que os CPN prestam cuidados de qualidade à mãe, à criança e a toda a família, reduzindo o trabalho de parto, a medicação, as intervenções desnecessárias e as complicações durante o parto e proporcionando conforto, segurança e bem-estar às mulheres grávidas e aos bebés. Cuidamos do recém-nascido com atendimento humanizado e de qualidade prestado por profissionais, principalmente enfermeiros. Além disso, quando a CPN foi implementada, as taxas de cesarianas foram reduzidas e as mulheres atendidas ficaram mais satisfeitas com o seu trabalho, pois conseguiram dar à luz de forma independente, além do apoio que receberam da família e das enfermeiras durante todo o período do parto. Portanto, além de apoiar e trazer segurança às mulheres, os enfermeiros tornam-se os principais especialistas no apoio dado às mulheres que dão à luz e prestam cuidados de qualidade.

A crítica ao direito nos “assim chamados” Cadernos Etnológicos de Karl Marx: os comentários a Henry Sumner Maine
Authors: Andrade Ana Carolina Marra de
Published: June 2024

Pretendemos analisar a crítica ao direito marxiana exposta nos comentários à obra Lectures on the early history of institutions, do jurista inglês Henry Sumner Maine, presentes nos "assim chamados" Cadernos Etnológicos. Para tal, passaremos pela crítica de Karl Marx à teoria do direito de Maine, passando também por considerações sobre os juristas analíticos John Austin e Jeremy Bentham, nos quais o autor das Lectures se baseia fortemente. Em seguida, trataremos das críticas à concepção de Maine sobre a origem do Estado e do direito. Então, explicaremos como Marx se contrapõe a Maine voltando-se para o solo da história real, e assim analisa a gênese e o desenvolvimento direito na Irlanda e sua associação com a religião cristã, tanto antes quanto durante a colonização inglesa, observando também a violência por trás da imposição das leis coloniais.

The impact of work-life balance on women employee is a crucial issue that has gained significant attention recent years. The ability to balance the demands of work and personal life is referred to as having a "work-life balance.", including family responsibilities, leisure activities and personal development. For women employees achieving work life balance can be particularly challenging due to traditional gender roles, social expectations and the persistent gender wage group. Women are often expected take on more caregiving responsibilities than men, which can make it difficulties to balance work life and personal life. It can affect their physical and mental health, their job satisfaction and performance, and their ability to advance in career. Additionally, it can impact their families, as well as society as a whole. Achieving work-life balance can be more challenging for women, particularly those with caregiving responsibilities or family commitments. As a result, some women may prioritize their personal lives over career advancement, leading to slower career progression compared to the male counterparts. Balancing professional and personal responsibilities can lead to increase stress and burnout for women. Sample was selected from 135 women employees in IT Sector.

Published: June 2024

Labour productivity was an important factor in the success of a company. A company’s output was as much dependent on labour productivity as it was on capital productivity. The study sought to examine the influence of technology used on labour productivity in the judicial service in Nyeri regional courts. The study adopted the descriptive design. The target population comprised 43 Magistrates, 93 Court Administrators, and 145 Lawyers (members of the Nyeri Law Society). Using 30% representation, a sample size of 13 Magistrates, 21 court administrators, and 44 Lawyers (members of the Nyeri Law Society) was utilized. The study used cluster random sampling to select 8 clusters, stratified sampling to identify the sample within each cluster, and simple random sampling to choose respondents from each stratum. It collected quantitative and qualitative data using questionnaires and interviews, then used statistical analysis to organize, summarize, and present the data. Quantitative data was analyzed with descriptive statistics (frequencies, percentages, means, and standard deviation) and presented in tables, graphs, and charts. The study demonstrates a very strong positive correlation between labour productivity in courts and technology used (coefficient of 0.746 with a significance level of 0.000. The regression analysis shows that technology use significantly enhances productivity, with a one-unit increase resulting in a 0.265 standard deviation rise (Beta = 0.265, p = .026). The study recommended that the judicial service should improve the technology infrastructure to boost productivity and performance in the legal sector.

Kajian ini dijalankan untuk menjelaskan sebutan vokal tinggi /i/ dan /u/ yang berada pada posisi suku kata akhir tertutup guru berdasarkan analisis teori fonologi generatif dan sosiofonologi, serta kesannya terhadap kesalahan ejaan murid. Tiga guru bahasa Melayu Tahun 1 dan 114 murid Tahun 1 di sebuah sekolah di daerah Hulu Langat, Selangor dipilih sebagai responden. Data dikumpulkan menggunakan borang soal selidik, borang maklum balas dan alat perakam dengan menggunakan kaedah kepustakaan dan pemerhatian. Kemudian, data dianalisis secara kualitatif dengan menggunakan (i) teori fonologi generatif dan (ii) faktor sosiofonologi. Hasil kajian menunjukkan bahawa terdapat murid yang menggantikan kata yang terdapat vokal tinggi /i/ dan /u/ pada suku kata akhir tertutup sebagai “e” dan “o” dalam penulisan mereka akibat ujaran guru yang membunyikan vokal /i/ dan /u/ pada posisi tersebut sebagai [e] dan [o], masing-masing. Misalnya, kata “arif” diujarkan sebagai [a.ref] dan “kamarul” diujarkan sebagai [ka.mã.rol]. Dengan berdasarkan teori fonologi generatif, perubahan ini berlaku disebabkan oleh proses perendahan vokal, iaitu perubahan fitur vokal [+tinggi] kepada fitur vokal [−tinggi] dan [+ATR]. Dari segi sosiofonologi, bahasa seharian yang sering digunakan, masalah gangguan bahasa, dan penggunaan dialek setempat telah mempengaruhi pelaksanaan proses perendahan vokal. Umumnya, kajian ini berusaha mengetengahkan perbezaan penggunaan vokal /i/ dan /u/ dan vokal [e] dan [o] kepada murid Tahun 1 untuk mengelakkan kekeliruan dan kesalahan ejaan kata bahasa Melayu secara berterusan.

Providing appropriate complementary food for breast milk (MPASI) is a crucial factor in supporting optimal growth and development of babies and toddlers. However, lack of knowledge and correct practice of providing MPASI is still a problem in various communities, including in Lot Kala Village, Kebayakan District, Central Aceh Regency, Indonesia. This Community Service aims to provide assistance in strengthening MPASI education for the mother community in the village. This study uses a participatory community service approach. Mentoring activities include counseling regarding the principles of providing appropriate MPASI, demonstrations on making homemade MPASI, as well as regular monitoring and evaluation. Data was collected through interviews, observations and questionnaires. Data analysis was carried out descriptively qualitatively and quantitatively. The results of this community service show an increase in mothers' knowledge regarding MPASI, an increase in mothers' skills in making homemade MPASI, as well as a change in the mother's attitude to become more positive towards giving homemade MPASI. Apart from that, there was an increase in the nutritional status of infants and toddlers after the intervention. Assistance in strengthening MPASI education has proven to be effective in increasing mothers' knowledge, skills and attitudes towards providing MPASI. This program is recommended for replication in other communities that have similar problems.
Cirsilineol Protects Renal Tubular Epithelial Cells from Hypoxia/Reoxygenation Injury by Inhibiting Inflammation and Pyroptosis
Authors: Fei Huang , Liu Zi
Published: June 2024

To investigate the effects of Cirsilineol on cell viability, pyroptosis, and inflammation in hypoxia/reoxygenation-induced renal tubular cells, we utilized the renal tubular epithelial cell line HK2. The in vitro renal injury model was induced by hypoxia/reoxygenation. Cell viability in hypoxia/reoxygenation-induced HK2 cells was determined using a methylthiazolyldiphenyl-tetrazolium bromide assay and lactate dehydrogenase releasing kit. The effects of Cirsilineol on inflammation and pyroptosis in HK2 cells were evaluated using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, flow cytometry, and immunoblot assays. Our results demonstrated that Cirsilineol promoted survival in hypoxia/reoxygenation-induced tubular cells, inhibited inflammation, and reduced pyroptosis in these cells. Further investigation revealed that the protective effects of Cirsilineol are mediated by the suppression of the Toll-like receptor 4/nuclear factor kappa B pathway, which mitigates the cellular response to hypoxia/reoxygenation injury. Our study suggests that Cirsilineol protects renal tubular epithelial cells from hypoxia/reoxygenation injury by inhibiting inflammation and pyroptosis, highlighting its potential therapeutic value in renal conditions characterized by ischemic injury.

Published: June 2024

Fava bean has been cultivated as a grain, vegetable, and cover crop in California for more than a century. Despite a decline in popularity as a grain, many growers are taking a second look to satisfy demands for vegetable fava bean (pod) and to provide plant-derived nitrogen (N) to grow summer cash crops. This paper presents the results of a series of experiments aimed at quantifying fava bean biomass and N at planting date and termination, as well as pod production in response to the harvest scheme. Sowing before the end of October resulted in the highest biomass and N in Northern California. Termination of fava bean cover crops in early April between the flowering and first pod stage increased the forage yield of the following crop (sudangrass), compared to termination at the earlier branching stage, which is typically in late February. We found that delaying vegetable pod harvest until the end of the growing season resulted in low fresh-pod yields. The results provide a starting point for growers interested in incorporating fava bean.
Array, Linked List, and Binary Search Tree Comparison
Authors: Sarevska Maja
Published: June 2024

In this paper, I present the comparison of necessary average programming steps for element search and deletion in basic data structures, like arrays, linked lists, and binary search trees. It is well known that an array is a very convenient data structure for accessing elements via indices, while it is complicated for element deletion, as it requires rearranging all the rest elements. Sorted arrays are very convenient for binary element search. On the other side linked list is a data structure that requires only a few steps for adding and deleting an element. I quantitatively confirm that the binary search tree is efficient both for binary search and for element deletion. This analysis may be used for the education of undergraduate and graduate students in computer science.

Introduction. Student immigration is considered as one of the most active forms of youth spatial mobility. The main task of the study is to develop conceptual approaches and a program for studying the spatial features of student immigration in Russia. Materials and research methods. The study is based on the analysis of extensive literature materials that reveal the main theoretical and methodological provisions of the analysis of educational migrations. Their strengths and weaknesses have been established, the need to develop new approaches related to identifying the spatial aspects of international student migration has been proved. Results of the study and their discussion. Based on the key theoretical and methodological provisions and the revealed facts, taking into account our own proposals and accumulated experience, a conceptual scheme and a program for studying the features of the spatial differentiation of student migration in Russia have been developed. As core areas of research, the following are proposed: identifying spatio-temporal features of development and differentiation of processes associated with the immigration of foreign students at the global, country and regional-local levels; establishing positional factors influencing decision-making when choosing places to receive higher education abroad; disclosure of intra-country inequality in the distribution of foreign students depending on the characteristics of the sending countries and receiving regions; detection of country and regional models of adaptive behavior of foreign students. In accordance with the logic of the developed concept, a program for studying the spatial features of the immigration of foreign students in Russia is presented. The step-by-step algorithm of the research program includes several stages, reflecting the nature and content of the main tasks to be solved. Conclusions. An analysis of the state of the theoretical and methodological base on the problem of migration of foreign students made it possible to establish the lack of elaboration of aspects related to the spatial features of their transformation and, in particular, the adaptation of foreign students in host countries. The proposed conceptual approaches and research program are aimed at filling the identified gaps.

Desemantization as a specificity of everyday communication
Authors:   North-Caucasus Federal University, Gryaznova V. M.
Published: June 2024

Introduction. The problem of desemantization in linguistics is considered from different sides: as a consequence of the development of the meaning of a word, as a phenomenon caused by the weakening of the nominative function, as a result of the influence of its lexical compatibility on the development of the meaning of a word. The relevance of the article is based on the lack of works devoted to various manifestations of the process of noun desemantization in modern colloquial speech. The purpose of the article is to identify the specifics of the semantic structure of names, the significativedenotative component of which is reduced in colloquial speech. Materials and methods. Russian dictionary definitions of a number of lexemes and a selection of texts including these nominations from the National Corpus of the Russian language served as the material. The following methods were used: component analysis, the method of definitional analysis of dictionary entries, the comparative method, and the method of contextual analysis. Analysis. Based on the collected material, the author identifies three groups of nouns with different types of desemantization, as a result of which special meanings are formed: a) a pronominal meaning, b) an independent evaluative meaning, on the basis of which a homonymous interjection can arise, c) a numerological meaning acting in unity with an emotional-evaluative one. The author reveals that the pronominal meaning or use is characterized by accentuation of the blurred designation of the subject of reality, attention to its general generic affiliation, indication of the subject, the presence of an antecedent or postcedent. In the second type of the desemantization process, the name has a pragmatic component as the apex of its meaning, and its significative-denotative component is located on the periphery. In the third form of the process of desemantization, a noun that has in its main meaning a component “a significant excess of standard characteristics” acquires diffuse semantics, in which both numerological and pragmatic components are present at the same time. Results. In general, the material allows the author to conclude that colloquial everyday communication is based on superficial knowledge, which is reflected in the various types and results of the desemantization process in the content of the presented noun groups.

Introduction. In the context of the complex geopolitical situation that has developed in the South Caucasus in the post-Soviet period, the problems associated with the security of this region have become much more complicated. Among them, an important place was occupied by issues of energy security, the solution of which increasingly depended on the political phenomena and processes taking place in the South Caucasus. The importance of studying this sphere of regional relations, which has become the focus of research attention, has increased. Of particular interest is the study of the role and place of Russia and Iran in regional relations in the South Caucasus, their participation in solving energy problems, which turned out to be among the current priorities of their policy in the South Caucasus direction. Materials and methods. The paper analyzed the publications of domestic and foreign researchers devoted to the problems of regional security in the South Caucasus. Documentary materials were involved, reflecting the rivalry of the leading Western countries with Russia and Iran for economic positions in the region, in particular, the development of hydrocarbon resources of the Caspian Sea and routes for their delivery to Europe. The work used problem-chronological, comparative and systemic methods to identify the degree of study of issues related to energy security in the South Caucasus. Analysis. The article specifies the factors influencing the energy policy of Russia and Iran in the South Caucasus, reveals their approach to solving complex issues that have accumulated in the energy sector. It is proved that in the course of a constructive dialogue between the two countries, favorable conditions were created for the development of strategic partnership in the South Caucasus. Results. The paper concludes that the resistance of the United States and its Western allies to the interests of Russia and Iran in the South Caucasus resulted in their wish to strengthen partnerships, strengthen the joint struggle against Western influence in the region and create conditions for its peaceful, safe and stable development.

Published: June 2024

The Teacher Development Multi-Year Studies were initiated by the Australian Government’s Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT) to provide evidence about the impact of DFAT’s investments in teacher development and how teacher development investments can be more effective. This Multi-Country Report is the culmination of five years of research across three countries, Timor-Leste, Vanuatu and Lao PDR (Laos), involving in-depth interviews, observations and learning assessments. Teacher development is at the heart of many education systems’ policies and programs aiming to improve teaching and student learning. The Multi-Country Report highlights how teacher professional learning can work together with system and contextual factors to lead to better outcomes. It provides a set of strategies for future thinking related to teacher development investments, and highlights how these investments need to be underpinned with sustained investment and robust systems to capture evidence of quality and impact.
THE MEDIATING ROLE OF ENVIRONMENTAL KNOWLEDGE SHARING ON THE IMPACT OF GREEN LEADERSHIP ON INNOVATION IN VIETNAMESE SMALL AND MEDIUM ENTERPRISES
Authors: Bui Thanh Khoa
Published: June 2024

With environmental sustainability gaining significance, firms require green leadership to drive the adoption of eco-innovations through appropriate culture-building. This quantitative study uses upper echelons theory to analyze green innovation levels in Vietnamese small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and to assess intermediary mechanisms that transmit strategic leaders’ influence. Results of partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) provide strong empirical support for the hypotheses that environmental knowledge sharing practices mediate the impact of green leadership behaviors on higher performance in green product and process innovation. Specifically, knowledge exchange through cross-functional collaborations and external partnerships explains the effect of leadership. Findings respond to calls for research on green innovation drivers in emerging markets such as Vietnam, where institutional pressures for ecological responsibility remain underdeveloped. Furthermore, identifying actionable transmission mechanisms informs policy guidelines regarding interventions necessary to nurture sustainable innovation. This study offers multi-level theoretical and practical contributions.
QUALITY OF SUSTAINABILITY REPORTING AND BANK STABILITY: EMPIRICAL EVIDENCE FROM VIETNAMESE COMMERCIAL BANKS
Authors: Nguyen Van Ha , Vu Khanh Linh , Do Khanh Hien
Published: June 2024

The purpose of this study is twofold. First, we attempt to quantify the quality of bank sustainability reporting (QSR) since the 2016 mandatory sustainability disclosure in Vietnam. Content analysis of banks’ annual reports is performed to assess 11 QSR items that are used to build the QSR index. Second, we investigate whether the quality of sustainability reporting influences banks’ financial stability. Employing a sample of 159 banking firm observations over the period 2016–2021, we document that the quality of sustainability reporting in Vietnamese commercial banks increased from year to year. Importantly, our empirical evidence shows that a higher level of QSR contributes to better bank stability. This result is robust to various estimation methods, different components of QSR, an alternative measure of bank stability, and controlling for reverse causality. Our findings provide important implications for bank managers by highlighting that the enhancement of QSR increases bank stability.
Proactive reward in conflict tasks: Does it only enhance general performance or also modulate conflict effects?
Authors: Bräutigam Linda C. , Leuthold Hartmut , Mackenzie Ian G. , Mittelstädt Victor
Published: June 2024

In the present study, we investigated the influence of performance-contingent reward prospects on task performance across three visual conflict tasks with manual responses (Experiments 1 & 2: Simon and Stroop tasks; Experiment 3: Simon and Eriksen flanker task) using block-wise (Experiment 1) and trial-wise (Experiments 2 & 3) manipulations to signal the possibility of reward. Across all experiments, task performance (in reaction time and/or error rates) generally improved in reward compared with no-reward conditions in each conflict task. However, there was, if any, little evidence that the reward manipulation modulated the size of the mean conflict effects, and there was also no evidence for conflict-specific effects of reward when controlling for time-varying fluctuations in conflict processing via distributional analyses (delta plots). Thus, the results provide no evidence for conflict-specific accounts and instead favor performance-general accounts, where reward anticipation leads to overall performance improvements without affecting conflict effects. We discuss possible implications for how proactive control might modulate the interplay between target- and distractor-processing in conflict tasks.
Moving from Concrete to Abstract Mathematical Thinking: The Role of Algebra Tiles
Authors: Brasili Simone
Published: June 2024

This article addresses the challenges of moving from concrete to abstract mathematical thinking. It emphasizes the importance of making a clear connection between geometry and mathematics to facilitate this transition. Algebra tiles, represented by squares and rectangles symbolizing monomials, are central to bridging this gap and providing tangible insights for students. They enable various mathematical processes, including polynomial operations and solving equations. The study shows how algebra tiles enrich mathematics education and facilitate the transition to abstract mathematical thinking. Through an in-depth investigation, the study reveals their historical, epistemological, and interdisciplinary significance and sheds light on their important role in mathematics education.
A Holistic Teaching Approach to Intermediate Algebra
Authors: Jones Charity , Van Wagoner Kathryn
Published: June 2024

With greater accessibility to college in the United States, thousands of prospective graduates come to colleges and universities with low math skills and a low opinion of their ability to learn and do mathematics. Developmental mathematics programs have long been tasked with remediating student math skills, however “developmental” implies more than remediation. It implies a holistic approach to mathematics education. This requires inclusive and equitable teaching practices that utilize research-based pedagogy and curriculum as well as address students’ sense of belonging and other psychological aspects of learning. This workshop will demonstrate and explain the combination of effective and inclusive teaching practices used in Intermediate Algebra courses at an open enrollment university. Student and faculty feedback will be shared.
