Comparative Analysis of PET, PTT and PBT Yarns Hydrolyzed by Alkali
Authors: İÇOĞLU H.ibrahim
Published: September 2021

Alkaline hydrolysis is a useful method for enhancing properties of polyesters. In this study, the alkali hydrolysis of three polyester filament yarns (poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET), poly(trimethylene terephthalate) (PTT) and poly(butylene terephthalate) (PBT)) was comparatively investigated under various conditions such as alkali concentration, solvent mixture, process duration and temperature. The weight loss under different conditions was evaluated. Scanning electron microscopy was used for morphological evaluation of the samples. Tenacity loss was also determined for hydrolyzed polyester yarns. While the effect of the different contions on weight loss of PET yarns was the highest, that of PBT yarns was the lowest. While PBT yarns lost nearly their half weight at 100 % ethanol, PTT yarns lost almost all of their weight and PET yarns were completely degraded. PBT yarns showed the fewest diameter loss percentages above 30 ºC. PTT yarns showed the highest tenacity loss for the similar weight loss values.

Published: September 2021

Poguntano Herb Plants (Picria fel-terrae Lour.) contains flavonoids compounds that have been potentially to developed into immunomodulators. The purpose of this study was to determine the immunomodulatory activity of Poguntano herb extract (Picria fel-terrae Lour.), with the method of carbon clearance. n-hexane extract puguntano herb(ENHHP), extract of ethyl acetate of Poguntano herb (EEAHP), and ethanol extract of puguntano herb(EEHP) Poguntano multistage results in the test of immunomodulatory activity with a method of carbon clearance. Results showed that the EEHP 200 mg/kg BB showed a strong immunostimulation effect, EEAHP 200 mg/kg BB showed strong immunostimulation effect, ENHP 200 mg/kg BB demonstrated strong immunostimulation effect. It is thought that extract N-hexane herb Poguntano (ENHHP), extracts of ethyl herb acetate Poguntano (EEAHP), and herb ethanol extract Poguntano (EEHP) Poguntano herb may increase phagocytosis activity. Extract of ethyl acetate Poguntano herb 200 mg/kg bw (EEAHP) has the best phagocytosis activity with a value of 2.376 which indicates there is a significant difference (P < 0.05) with another treatment group.

Published: September 2021

La présente étude vise à analyser le conflit apparent entre la prise en charge prioritaire du statut de la personne handicapée et le principe de priorité de l’enregistrement des biens immobiliers, c’est-à-dire si cette garantie légale donne à la personne handicapée la priorité lorsqu’elle note les droits dans les notatoires. En ce qui concerne la méthodologie utilisée, il convient de noter qu’en ce qui concerne les objectifs de la présente étude, cette étude est classée comme descriptive et explicative et, en ce qui concerne les moyens, elle est classée comme bibliographique, en utilisant des documents tels que des livres, des articles, des magazines et des rapports sur le sujet. La recherche est également caractérisée comme une approche qualitative. Il visait à démontrer que la personne handicapée a le droit garanti par la loi 13.143/2015 d’être servie rapidement, efficacement et individuellement, y compris dans le registre des registres immobiliers, mais ne jouit pas de privilèges compte tenu de la priorité d’enregistrement compte tenu du principe de priorité d’enregistrement. D’après les décisions prises par les tribunaux enregistrés de São Paulo, en conséquence, il est constaté que la disposition spécifique de la loi n° 6.015/1973 prévaut en ce qui concerne le droit de soins prioritaires de certains publics, la loi 13.143/2015, puisqu’il s’agit d’un droit matériel de priorité, et il est entendu que l’octroi de soins prioritaires en dehors des exigences de l’article 186 de la loi n° 6.015/1973, s’entend comme accordant des soins prioritaires en dehors des exigences de l’article 186 de la loi n° 6.015/1973, représenterait un affront indéniable aux diktats juridiques, ce qui compromettrait le service du droit à l’égalité, une prémisse également du Statut des personnes handicapées.
Servizio prioritario dello status della persona con disabilità e principio di priorità della registrazione di beni immobili

Published: September 2021

Il presente studio si propone di analizzare l’apparente conflitto tra la cura prioritaria dello status della persona con disabilità e il principio di priorità della registrazione degli immobili, cioè se questa garanzia legale, dà priorità alla persona con disabilità quando nota i diritti nei Notai. Per quanto riguarda la metodologia utilizzata, è interessante notare che, per quanto riguarda gli scopi di questo studio, questo studio è classificato come descrittivo ed esplicativo e, per quanto riguarda i mezzi, è classificato come bibliografico, utilizzando materiali come libri, articoli, riviste e relazioni sull’argomento. La ricerca si caratterizza anche come approccio qualitativo. Aveva lo scopo di dimostrare che la persona con disabilità ha il diritto garantito dalla legge 13.143/2015 di essere servita in modo rapido, efficace e individuale, anche nel registro dei registri immobiliari, ma non gode di privilegi in considerazione della priorità di registrazione in considerazione del principio di priorità di registrazione. Dalle decisioni prese dai tribunali registrati di San Paolo, di conseguenza, si constata che la disposizione specifica della legge n. 6.015/1973 prevale in relazione al diritto di assistenza prioritaria di alcuni pubblici, la legge 13.143/2015, poiché è un diritto materiale di priorità, e resta inteso che la concessione di cure prioritarie al di fuori dei requisiti dell’articolo 186 della legge n. 6.015/1973, è intesa come concessione di cure prioritarie al di fuori dei requisiti dell’articolo 186 della legge n. 6.015/1973, rappresenterebbe un innegabile affronto ai dettami giuridici, che comprometterebbe il servizio del diritto all’uguaglianza, premessa anche dello Statuto delle persone con disabilità.
Приоритетное обслуживание статута инвалида и принципа приоритетности при оформлении недвижимости
Authors: Neto Alexandre Moura Lima , Aguair Alessandra Anchieta Moreira Lima de , Neto Haroldo Corrêa Cavalcanti
Published: September 2021

Настоящее исследование направлено на анализ очевидного противоречия между приоритетной заботой о статусе инвалида и принципом приоритетности регистрации недвижимости, то есть, если эта правовая гарантия, дает инвалиду приоритет при указании прав в нотациях. Что касается используемой методологии, то следует отметить, что в отношении целей настоящего исследования это исследование классифицируется как описательное и пояснительное, а что касается средств, то оно классифицируется как библиографическое с использованием таких материалов, как книги, статьи, журналы и доклады по этому вопросу. Исследование также характеризуется как качественный подход. Он был призван продемонстрировать, что инвалид имеет право, гарантированное Законом 13.143/2015, на быстрое, эффективное и индивидуальное обслуживание, в том числе в Реестре записей о недвижимости, но не пользуется привилегиями ввиду регистрационного приоритета с учетом принципа приоритета регистрации. В результате из решений, принятых зарегистрированными судами São Paulo, было установлено, что конкретное положение Закона No 6.015/1973 имеет преимущественную силу в отношении права на приоритетную опеку некоторых публичных лиц, Закон 13.143/2015, поскольку оно является материальным правом приоритета, и понимается, что предоставление приоритетного права вне требований ст. 186 Закона No 6.015/1973 понимается как предоставление приоритетного ухода за пределами требований ст. 186 Закона No 6.015/1973, будет представлять собой неоспоримое оскорбление правовых норм, что поставит под угрозу служение праву на равенство, что также является предпосылкой Статута инвалидов.

"Se un giorno tornasse quell'ora".La nuova sinistra tra eredità antifascista e terzomondismo
Authors: Brazzoduro Andrea
Published: September 2021

Questo articolo propone un'inedita genealogia della nuova sinistra in Europa occidentale tra la metà degli anni Cinquanta alla metà degli anni Settanta. Discostandosi dalle interpretazio-ni correnti, riafferma l'importanza storica della Guerra d'indipendenza algerina (1954-62), e più in generale del terzomondismo, nella genealogia delle nuove culture politiche che si svi-lupparono nei global 1960s. Una generazione di militanti si riappropriò della memoria della Resistenza declinandola in un registro non semplicemente difensivo ma attivante, sovrappo-nendo il mito della "Resistenza tradita" all'immagine dell'imperialismo come il "nuovo fascismo". La guerra civile europea, identificata da Enzo Traverso come il tratto caratteristico del-la prima metà del ventesimo secolo, veniva così riconfigurata su scala mondiale come "guerra civile globale".

Published: September 2021

La letteratura ha evidenziato problemi psicologici durante il lockdown da Covid-19. È stata condotta una ricerca con 49 studenti che si sono rivolti al Centro di Counseling psicologico dell'Università di Salerno tra marzo e maggio 2020. Gli obiettivi sono stati: a) indagare l'eventuale presenza di disturbi psicologici e in particolare di PTSD; b) valutare l'efficacia di un percorso breve con protocollo EMDR online per quegli studenti con PTSD legato alla riattivazione di traumi pregressi in seguito allo stress da pandemia e lockdown. I dati raccolti in fase di pre e post trattamento (dai colloqui psicologici e dallo scoring della Scala SCL-90-R) mostrano: PTSD (25%), ansia e stress (100%), depressione (88%). Nel post-trattamento EMDR si è evidenziata, alla Scala IES-R, una riduzione dei cut-off da range clinico a range normativo e alla SCL-90-R un passaggio da punteggi clinicamente significativi nelle scale sindromiche a punteggi normativi. In particolare, alla SCL-90, il punteggio all'indice Global Severity Index - GSI, indicatore globale dell'intensità attuale del disagio psichico percepito dal soggetto conferma, nel post trattamento, il raggiungimento di un assetto normativo.

Authors: Giacomelli Elena
Published: September 2021

Il presente articolo descrive una ricerca etnografica delle professionalità nate all'interno del sistema di accoglienza nella Provincia Autonoma di Trento. L'interrogativo di fondo nasce sul campo grazie all'esperienza della ricercatrice come operatrice di accoglienza con l'Associazione Centro Astalli presso la Provincia Autonoma di Trento, che costituisce il caso empirico approfondito. L'osservazione partecipante, insieme a 55 interviste in profondità ad operatori di accoglienza, ha fatto emergere la rilevanza che le scelte, ruoli e valori degli operatori assumono nell'influenzare il significato dell'accoglienza praticata e talora per-sino i percorsi di integrazione dei soggetti beneficiari. L'analisi ha cercato di far emergere la formazione e le competenze, sia preliminari sia apprese sul campo, di questa (nuova) figura professionale.
Il fascismo nell'Enciclopedia italiana
Authors: Fonzo Erminio
Published: September 2021

L'Enciclopedia italiana è stata l'opera più importante realizzata dal regime fascista in ambito culturale. Logicamente, l'Enciclopedia era attenta a riportare la versione dei fatti gradita al governo su tutto ciò che riguardava la storia recente e la politica. Nel regime, però, gli intellettuali non erano sempre concordi e in alcuni casi i collaboratori della Treccani dovettero scegliere quale interpretazione proporre. Il livello scientifico delle voci sull'attualità politica e la storia recente è vario: alcune propongono una sintesi efficace, mentre altre sono più faziose. Il controllo del governo, del resto, aumentò nel corso degli anni e fu particolarmente stretto sull'Appendice I, pubblicata nel 1938. L'articolo prende in esame le voci dell'Enciclopedia e dell'Appendice relative alla politica e alla storia recente, esaminando quali elementi dell'ideologia e della storia del fascismo gli autori hanno inteso mettere in evidenza; attraverso quali metodi hanno proposto la narrazione "ufficiale".

Nel corso del lavoro prenderemo a riferimento alcuni di questi ele-menti della realtà sociale che sono stati intaccati dagli effetti di Covid-19. In parti-colare, saranno affrontate le seguenti tematiche: il rapporto tra scienza e tecnolo-gia; socializzazione e distanziamento nella società iper-mediata; la relazione tra scienza e pseudo-scienza.
Morire di disorganizzazione: la gestione sanitaria del Covid-19 in Italia
Authors: Sofritti Federico
Published: September 2021

La pandemia sta rendendo evidente come il rapporto tra ospedale e territorio non sia pensabile in termini dicotomici, come enucleatosi storicamente nel sistema sa-nitario italiano. Le riforme sanitarie, dal 1978, hanno infatti consolidato la preesi-stente differenziazione tra sanità ospedaliera e territoriale. All'interno di questa cornice, l'articolo affronta la questione della riorganizzazione delle cure territoriali. In particolare, si sostiene come l'emergenza Covid-19 renda necessario un ripen-samento dell'assistenza territoriale nel quadro delle cure primarie, discutendone alcuni punti chiave: l'implementazione delle tecnologie digitali; il ruolo delle co-munità locali; la questione professionale; il paradigma di salute e malattia sottostante.

Authors: Gabellieri Nicola
Published: September 2021

Recentemente l'UNESCO ha invitato gli studiosi ad approfondire lo studio delle dinamiche storiche e ambientali che hanno portato nel corso del tempo allo sviluppo di specifici ecosistemi e paesaggi, definiti come ‘bio-cultural heritage'. Raccogliendo questo stimolo, il contributo è dedicato a caratterizzare storicamente i pascoli alberati di larix decidua alpini: a partire dalla bibliografia sulla storia e sull'ecologia del larice, due casi studio di lariceti passati e presenti in Trentino sono approfonditi utilizzando un metodo geostorico che combina analisi di fonti documentali e osservazione di terreno. In conclusione, i lariceti risultano essere un prodotto di pratiche di uso e gestione delle risorse pascolive e forestali, capaci di fornire vari servizi ecosistemici, ma ad oggi a rischio di scomparsa.
Vulnerable among the most vulnerable: the victimization of stateless minors
Authors: Policek Nicoletta
Published: September 2021

This contribution proposes a discussion about citizenship, intended as the aspi-ration to have borders, and the opportunity to seek protection from violence and abuse. Longing to have borders means claiming community through citizenship and nationality rights. Securing rights, however, is not a linear endeavour as legal loopholes in the current available legislation make problematic if not impossible to claim the legal safety that comes with having borders. Supported by the experi-ences of stateless young women in diverse geographical and legal settings, namely Italy, Slovenia and Croatia, this contribution highlights means of negotiating citi-zenship for those who have experienced violence and abuse. It reflects on data that have explored the personal, social and structural level challenges that stateless minors face when seeking help as a consequence of victimization.
Il curriculum accademico e la professione del ricercatore. Pratiche di adattamento strategico all'interno del CV
Authors: Filippi Davide
Published: September 2021

Il presente contributo analizza la relazione che intercorre tra il percorso professionale dei ricercatori universitari e le forme e i significati che questi assegnano al proprio Curriculum Vitae. L'autore si concentra nel collocare dal punto di vista teorico il dispositivo rappresentato dal Curriculum Vitae all'interno dei paradigmi governamentali istituiti dal neoliberalismo e delle relazioni sociali da essi determinati. In questo senso, l'emergere di quello che in letteratura è definito come un Self Neoliberale è particolarmente visibile all'interno delle strutture standardizzate che organizzano un "buon CV", il quale agisce in modo performante nel dare una specifica forma alle soggettività accademiche. Dal punto di vista empirico, l'autore mette in relazione le informazioni raccolte attraverso ventiquattro interviste in profondità a ricercatori e ricercatrici precari italiani con l'analisi dei CV che gli stessi soggetti avevano inviato prima dell'intervista stessa.

Ispirandosi al recente filone di ricerca dei critical Romani studies, l'articolo si prefigge di connettere la letteratura intersezionale con quella sulla segregazione abitativa e razziale delle minoranze rom e sinte, con l'obiettivo di gettare luce sulle specificità di genere di questo fenomeno. L'analisi delle traiettorie abitative e sociali di tredici donne rom immigrate in Italia permette di evidenziare l'intreccio tra discriminazione razziale e oppressione di genere, ma anche le forme di resistenza e di "ordinary agency" attraverso cui le donne cercano di fronteggiare le proprie difficoltà e di migliorare la propria situazione.
«Normaliser» la vie des personnes handicapées par l'emploi? Le prisme d'associations aidant à l'intégration sur le marché du travail aux États-Unis
Authors: Assaf Marie
Published: September 2021

Cet article propose de réfléchir aux processus de «normalisation» de la vie des personnes handicapées aux États-Unis et plus précisément au cadre d'associations aidant à l'intégration dans le marché du travail. Il s'agit d'interroger ces discours et pratiques à par-tir d'une courte étude de terrain. Cette analyse institutionnelle couplée à une courte immer-sion auprès des acteurs (agents des associations et observation des personnes handicapées clientes des services) illustre la grande versatilité du système états-unien. Mais cela invite également à formuler une proposition réflexive sur la place du chercheur valide (et étranger): que peut-il apprendre de la dimension paternaliste de ces pratiques associatives (et comment les qualifier?) et dans quelle mesure cela aide-t-il à repenser la construction de la norme états-unienne?

Burnout subtypes: Psychological characteristics, standardized diagnoses and symptoms course to identify aftercare needs
Authors: Pallich Gianandrea , grosse Holtforth Martin , Hochstrasser Barbara
Published: September 2021

Background

To better understand individual differences between burnout inpatients and improve individually tailored treatments in a psychiatric hospital, cluster analysis based on a number of self-report measures was used to investigate psychosocial characteristics of 96 participants.

Method

Group membership was analyzed regarding associations with standardized measures of psychiatric and personality disorders. Moreover, symptom levels of burnout, depression, and general mental health were used to characterize the groups and to observe differential trajectories at admission, discharge, and follow-up.

Results

As in previous research, we identified four subtypes that differed in comorbidity, psychological characteristics and treatment outcome. This calls for tailored interventions for the more vulnerable patients.

Conclusion

The replicated and enriched characterization of burnout inpatients can help to optimally meet the differential needs of burnout patients.
Lifetime trauma history and cognitive functioning in major depression and their role for cognitive-behavioral therapy outcome
Authors: Schindler Lena , Stalder Tobias , Kirschbaum Clemens , Plessow Franziska , Schönfeld Sabine , Hoyer Jürgen , Trautmann Sebastian , Weidner Kerstin , Steudte-Schmiedgen Susann
Published: September 2021

Background

While cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) is the gold-standard psychological treatment for major depression (MD), non-response and lacking stability of treatment gains are persistent issues. Potential factors influencing treatment outcome might be lifetime trauma history and possibly associated primarily prefrontal-cortex- and hippocampus-dependent cognitive alterations.

Method

We investigated MD and healthy control participants with (MD+T+, n = 37; MD-T+, n = 39) and without lifetime trauma history (MD+T-, n = 26; MD-T-, n = 45) regarding working memory, interference susceptibility, conflict adaptation, and autobiographical memory specificity. Further, MD+T+ (n = 21) and MD+T- groups (n = 16) were re-examined after 25 CBT sessions, with MD-T- individuals (n = 34) invited in parallel in order to explore the stability of cognitive alterations and the predictive value of lifetime trauma history, cognitive functioning, and their interaction for treatment outcome.

Results

On a cross-sectional level, MD+T+ showed the highest conflict adaptation, but MD+T- the lowest autobiographical memory specificity, while no group differences emerged for working memory and interference susceptibility. Clinical improvement did not differ between groups and cognitive functioning remained stable over CBT. Further, only a singular predictive association of forward digit span, but no other facets of baseline cognitive functioning, lifetime trauma history, or their interaction with treatment outcome emerged.

Discussion

These results indicate differential roles of lifetime trauma history and psychopathology for cognitive functioning in MD, and add to the emerging literature on considering cognitive, next to clinical remission as a relevant treatment outcome.
Development of Reading Fluency from the Perspective of Automaticity Theory
Authors: Feruzi Sadiki Moshi
Published: September 2021

Reading fluency has been a persistent problem among learners. A couple of experimental studies reveal the existence of this problem in many primary and secondary schools as well.  In the past century, experimental psychologists have popularized automaticity theory as a relevant paradigm in developing children’s reading fluency. The theory identifies four important aspects that feature automaticity, which are speed, autotomy, effortlessness, and lack of conscious awareness. This study adopted a documentary review where various studies were collected, thoroughly reviewed and finally examined for qualitative analysis. The study aimed at expanding understanding of reading fluency by examining roles prayed by teachers in the development of child’s reading fluency basing on automaticity theory.  There were similar findings related to reading fluency and automaticity theory from various publications reviewed. However, this study considered three of them, which have shown significant information across the topic and have been cited in various books and world-class journals.
Understanding the Lived Experiences of Tunisian Undergraduate Students in EAP Writing Courses: Students Voicing their Stories
Authors: Kassab Kalthoum
Published: September 2021

tudies that have investigated students’ perceptions of EGAP and ESAP instructions have generally focused on students’ perceived learning of the features of academic discourse that they can transfer to their subject-specific courses. Examining the processes that students go through when trying to adjust to EAP instruction has received little attention. The present study aimed to explore the challenges that Tunisian students faced when trying to adjust to the requirements of an ESAP course to which they had been introduced for the first time. Understanding these challenges can lead to a better understanding of the processes by which students move from the initial learning context to the transfer contexts (Lobato, 2003). The study was conducted over a period of two years and involved two student cohorts. A student cohort of 21 students participated during the academic year 2014-2015 and another cohort of 36 students participated during the academic year 2015-2016. The research consisted of a diary study, in that data were collected solely from the learner diaries that students were asked to keep as part of the learning activities. Results showed that ESAP instruction presented considerable challenges to students during the first semester of the course. These challenges often caused feelings of anger, disappointment, demotivation, and resistance. Despite these challenges, students’ adjustment to the course was clearly observed in the second semester. The findings also revealed that all participants developed a very positive attitude towards the ESAP model at the end of instruction. The findings suggest that ESAP instruction has a greater potential to promote learning transfer because it provides students with a more authentic learning environment. However, the implementation and success of this model in the various Tunisian academic settings depends, on the one hand, on the EAP teachers’ willingness to change their teaching beliefs and practices and, on the other hand, on their preparations to meet the challenges that such a teaching model can pose to teachers.
Foreignizing Translation as a Strategy to Universalize Literary Texts
Authors: Aich Younes
Published: September 2021

All literary works hold the traces of their authors at various levels. With this idea in mind, all literary translations should enable the target reader to have an insight into the kind of thinking patterns, tastes and choices that guide the daily life of people in foreign cultures. On this basis, it is of paramount importance to preserve the local flavour of the translated text so that the target reader knows him/herself better through contacting the cultural Other. To this end, I deem it crucial to opt for a translation method that is likely to preserve the local flavor of the home culture and trigger the target reader’s enthusiasm to discover the Other along with his/her writings. Foreignization can be adopted as a translation strategy in this regard to facilitate an adequate encounter with the cultural Other via his/her literary production. It is worth noting that any investigation of the source text, including its cultural environment, gives a place for a deep and satisfactory understanding of it. Relatedly, when the home culture is sufficiently studied and comprehended, the target reader gets to know more about it and learns to be tolerant of differences.
Exploring Morphosyntax-related Semantic and Pragmatic Dimension Losses in Three English Translations of the Meanings of Sūrah AlKahf: A Comparative Pragmalinguistic Analytical Study
Authors: Abdelkarim Majda Babiker Ahmed , Alhaj Ali Albashir Mohammed
Published: September 2021

The current research paper explores some morphosyntax-related semantic and pragmatic dimension losses in three English translations of the meanings of Sūrah AlKahf of Mohammed A.S Abdel- Hakeem, Mohammed M. Pickthall, and Mohammed Khan and Mohammed Taj Al-Din Al-Hilai . Also, the study aims at probing the reasons that lead to these semantic and pragmatic losses, either partial or complete. The two researchers utilized the qualitative descriptive paradigm, which is proper and apt to this study because the Holy Quran rendition is multiplex and cannot be deeply examined adopting another alternative research paradigm. Markedly, the qualitative descriptive paradigm is apt to analyze the data extracted from the three translations of Mohammed A.S Abdel- Hakeem, Mohammed M. Pickthall, and Mohammed Khan and Mohammed Taj Al-Din Al-Hilai Abdel of Surah AlKahf .The study indicated losses in renditions, tense, verbs, losses of consistency and morphosyntax grouping, and culture-specific terms. The study also revealed that the morphosyntax-related semantic and pragmatic dimension losses might lead to meaning losses, fixed expressions, idioms, or culture-specific terms. This study recommends that the translators of the Holy Quran in general and the translators of Surah AlKahf, notably, employ suitable translation strategies to decrease the morphosyntax-related semantic and pragmatic dimension losses in the translation of the Holy Quran.

Authors: El Hamydy El Mehdi
Published: September 2021

This paper reports on a quasi-experimental study that examines the use of instructional games in teaching grammar, and in particular, it explores the effect of tic-tac toe and board game on the present continuous and present simple. The study was conducted among 60 (N=60) Moroccan EFL common core students from two different high schools in Casablanca. All the participants took a pre-test prior to instruction and a post-test immediately after the training, which lasted three sessions. The experimental group (n=30) were instructed using instructional games, mainly tic-tac toe and board game. However, the control group (n=30) received no treatment. The experimental group was also given a feedback questionnaire at the end of the training. The data sets were submitted to SPSS, using the Independent T-test. The findings indicated that all the participants were equal in the pre-test. Nonetheless, the experimental group outscored the control group in the post test. The results of the feedback questionnaire were also in line with the whole-results of the study. It can be concluded that the tic-tac toe and board game had a momentous effect on the subjects’ understanding of the present simple and present continuous.
The Metropolis and the “Bloodless Characters”: A Comparative Study of James Joyce’s “A Painful Case” and Yusuf Idrīs’s “Qāʿ al-Madīna” [“The Bottom of the City”]
Authors: Abdel Hafeez Ghada
Published: September 2021

The current paper has been developed to examine the complexities of metropolitan subjects’ blasé attitude and bloodless life as portrayed in James Joyce’s “A Painful Case” and Yusuf Idrīs’s “Qāʿ al-Madīna” [“The Bottom of the City”] short stories. The paper aims at analyzing the impact of metropolis on its bloodless characters’ mental health and perception of self through the unpacking of the blasé attitude which emerges in Georg Simmel’s famous study “The Metropolis and Mental Life.” Using Simmel’s study as a tool to analyze the two short stories, the paper will comment on and compare the manner in which the Irish and the Egyptian urban texts decipher the code of their modern metropoles to interpret in what ways Simmel’s insights illuminate our understanding of the dilemma of the metropolitan subject.  In this paper the urban and literary theory will complement each other in shedding light on the emergence of new forms of socialization. The paper reaches the conclusion that the overall image of the metropolis portrayed in the two short stories was constructed through the mutilated sensibilities of the metropolitan subjects that have become dispirited by the routine of their daily lives. The two protagonists – Mr. Duffy and Mr. Abdallah - end up living like strangers who maintain minimal comunication with others due the cold and unfeeling rationality they adopt to protect themselves against the overstimulation of their dehumanizing metropoles.
Translation of Biblical and Mythological Allusions in Three Shakespearean Tragedies: Hamlet, Macbeth, and Romeo and Juliet
Authors: Alimardani Habib , Zare Behtash Esmail
Published: September 2021

Allusions as a literary device are included in a text to express meanings that go beyond the mere words the author uses and depend to a large extent on familiarity to be comprehended. Thus, they carry meaning in the culture in which they arise while this meaning is missed in another culture. The translation of allusions, therefore, which includes two language cultures, requires enormous problem-solving skills and adoption of strategies allowing the translator to evoke more or less the same reaction as that of the source language audience (Leppihalme, 1997). This study explores the adoption of strategies by Pasargadi (1996) in translating allusions rooted in mythology and the Bible in three Shakespearean tragedies, i.e. Hamlet, Macbeth and Romeo and Juliet based on the classification suggested by Ruokonen (2010). The analysis of the results revealed that the translator made more frequent use of modifying than retentive strategies, 52.69% and 47.31% respectively. Further investigation of the translation strategies employed by the translator sheds greater light on the reliability of the classification by Ruokonen (2010) and results in a better grasp of how to guarantee as close an effect on the target text audience as the one created on the source text audience.

Objective: Resilience-promoting program which covers strategies to improve sleep health through modulation of sleep-related habits has been lacking. The authors aimed to develop a resilience-promoting program that incorporates the encouragement of healthy sleep habits. Methods: Fifty-eight adolescents (27 female, 46.6%; aged 13.78±0.82 years) were recruited to test the effectiveness of the program. Dur- ing the first and final sessions, several self-reported questionnaires, including the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC), the Smart- phone Addiction Scale–short version (SAS-SV), Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), Composite Scale of Morningness (CSM), In- somnia Severity Index (ISI), and a sleep habit-related questionnaires were administered to the adolescents. After the first session, adolescents were provided with an Actiwatch and were asked to wear the watch to the last session date. Multiple linear regression analyses were used to identify predictors of resilience and sleep quality.Results: The participants’ resilience, morningness, sleep quality, wake after sleep onset (WASO), and wakening frequency during the night changed significantly. Resilience at the last session was related to sleep quality (β=-0.394, p=0.005) at the last session when controlling for age, sex, and morningness. Sleep quality at the last session was related to the mean sun- light exposure time (β=-0.363, p=0.037) at the last session when controlling for age, sex, and WASO during the third week.Conclusion: This study found that four weekly sessions of resilience-promoting program improved resilience, sleep quality including objective actigraphic measures, and morningness. Improved resilience was related to better sleep quality.

Authors: Seo Wan Seok
Published: September 2021

Since the first outbreak of coronavirus disease (COVID-19) in December 2019, we have experienced many changes that we have never experienced before. Governments around the world have instituted various forms of social isolation measures to prevent the spread of COVID-19. These measures include social distancing, home confinement, quarantine, and lockdown. Unfortunately, these measures have increased the ambiguity of the economic situation and the uncertainty regarding the future. For many individuals, these actions resulted in changes in routines at home, school, and work; changes in roles at home, mental health, and physical activity; and changes in circadian cues. All of these alterations resulted in disruptions in sleep patterns and sleep difficulties. In this paper, the alterations in sleep patterns and the sleep difficulties related to social isolation policies would be reviewed. These include social distancing and home confinement. Finally, methods to improve sleep problems also reviewed.
