Published: June 2023

In the conservation and management of our environment, information on vegetation change and pollution monitoring as a result of human activities is still highly important. This necessitated a palaeoenvironmental investigation through drilled sediments of a 51 cm core in Atlas Cove on the Commodore Channel in Lagos State, in order to ascertain possible changes in the past ecological conditions of the study area over time. Eighteen sediment samples were collected at intervals of 3 cm between the depth of 0.00 cm and 51.00 cm and subjected to palynological, lithological, pH, salinity, and heavy metal analyses. The palynological study revealed a diversified and sparse array of palynomorphs. Pollen of Asystasia gangetica, Alstonia congensis, Rauvolfia vomitoria, Cyperus sp., Kyllinga erecta, Rhizophora racemosa, Acrostichum aureum, Polypodiaceae, Paspalum sp., Pteris sp., Alchornea cordifolia, and Elchornia crassipes were found to be dominant. The pH and salinity values of the sediment samples also varied considerably at different depths. A considerable number of lithological types were recognized, which varied in grain-size, grain sorting and grain-texture. The concentrations of Fe, Cu, As, Pb, Zn, Cr, Se, Ni, Mn, Co, Cd, and Al vary greatly. When the results were compared to the soil guideline value for commercial areas using the CLEA-Contaminated Land Exposure Assessment, they were found to be below the limit for commercial areas, indicating that environmental contamination is negligible. This study's findings will be used to develop realistic conservation and management plans for this biologically unique ecosystem in the future.
Bolehkah Bercerai?: Melihat Kembali Pandangan Yesus Tentang Perceraian Dalam Matius 19:9 Dengan Pendekatan Kritik Tata Bahasa
Authors: Andre Rollando
Published: June 2023

Abstract: Whether or not it is permissible to divorce in marriage is still being debated among interpreters when reading the Gospel of Matthew 19:9, and in general Christians see the text as legitimacy for divorce, especially in the phrase "μὴ ἐπὶ πορνείᾳ" which is for reasons of adultery. The author actually sees that there is an error in understanding the text and in fact there is no opportunity given by Jesus for divorce. The method used in this research is grammatical criticism. As a result, Matthew 19:9 especially in the phrase "μὴ ἐπὶ πορνείᾳ" is actually not like adultery which is generally understood in society. This word means unnatural sexual crimes, fornication, prostitution, and is equated with idol worship. Therefore, divorce is only done by people who do not fear God. Characteristic of an attitude that imitates Christ who loves and forgives. So Jesus remained consistent against divorce among believers.
Abstrak: Boleh atau tidaknya bercerai dalam pernikahan masih menjadi perdebatan di kalangan para penafsir ketika membaca Injil Matius 19:9, dan pada umumnya orang Kristen melihat teks itu sebagai legitimasi untuk bercerai khususnya pada frase “μὴ ἐπὶ πορνείᾳ” yaitu karena alasan perzinahan. Penulis justru melihat ada kesalahan dalam memahami teks tersebut dan sesungguhnya tidak ada kesempatan yang diberikan Yesus untuk bercerai. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah kritik tata bahasa. Hasilnya, Matius 19:9 khususnya pada frase “μὴ ἐπὶ πορνείᾳ” sesungguhnya tidak seperti zinah yang dipahami pada umumnya dalam masyarakat. Kata tersebut berarti kejahata seksual yang tidak wajar, percabulan, persundalan, dan disetarakan dengan penyembahan berhala karena itu perceraian hanya diperbuat oleh orang-orang yang tidak takut akan Allah. Selain itu perceraian tidak mengambarkan ciri sikap yang meneladanai Kristus yang mengasih dan mengampuni. Jadi Yesus tetap konsisten menetang perceraian di kalangan orang percaya.
Trinitas di Antara Subaltern dan Politik Egaliter
Authors: Theresia Lidia
Published: June 2023

Abstract: Colonialism in human civilization has caused comprehensive problems in all aspects of life, including gender issues. Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak, one of the literary critics, said that colonialism gave rise to a new inferiority with Eurocentrism. When Europe became the locus of power, women outside European nations were increasingly oppressed and became third-world women, which Spivak calls subaltern. The church, also formed due to colonialism, must not take advantage of itself but must be critical in highlighting social inequality. The presence of the church must respond to social problems that occur among its people and support the creation of equality in human life. For this reason, this article will show that the church can answer subaltern problems through the doctrine of the Trinity and create equality or egalitarianism in people's lives. The discussion is carried out using a qualitative research method, which presents formulations of the doctrine of the Trinity by theologians. The explanation will then show the model of the Trinity that is present to answer the subaltern problem. Thus, through the Trinity, the church can provide theological answers to the struggles felt by humans.
Abstrak: Kolonialisme yang terjadi dalam peradaban manusia telah menimbulkan permasalahan menyeluruh di segala aspek kehidupan, termasuk masalah gender. Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak, salah seorang kritikus sastra, mengatakan bahwa kolonialisme memunculkan inferioritas baru dengan Eropasentris. Ketika Eropa menjadi lokus kuasa, maka perempuan di luar bangsa Eropa semakin tertindas dan menjadi perempuan dunia ketiga, yang Spivak sebut sebagai subaltern. Gereja yang juga terbentuk akibat dari kolonialisme, tidak boleh mengambil keuntungan sendiri, melainkan harus bersifat kritis dalam menyorot ketimpangan sosial yang terjadi. Kehadiran gereja harus menjawab permasalahan sosial yang terjadi di tengah-tengah umatnya, dan mendukung terciptanya kesetaraan dalam kehidupan manusia. Untuk itu, artikel ini akan memperlihatkan bahwa gereja mampu menjawab masalah subaltern melalui doktrin Trinitas, dan menciptakan kesetaraan atau egaliterisme dalam kehidupan masyarakat. Pembahasan dilakukan dengan menggunakan metode penelitian kualitatif, yang memaparkan rumusan-rumusan mengenai doktrin Trinitas para teolog. Pemaparan tersebut kemudian akan memperlihatkan model Trinitas yang hadir untuk menjawab masalah subaltern. Dengan demikian, melalui Trinitas gereja dapat memberi jawaban teologis atas pergumulan yang dirasakan oleh manusia.

Perjumpaan Gereja dengan budaya memungkinkan terjadinya penerimaan atau penolakan gereja terhadap budaya. Gereja HKBP salah satu gereja kesukuan di Indonesia yang menerima dan menjaga tradisi Batak Toba.  Penerimaan Gereja HKBP terhadap budaya telah disertai dengan larangan dan pengajaran yang tertuang dalam buku Konfessi dan Ruhut Parmahanion Paminsangon (RPP), namun masih ada jemaat yang melaksanakan praktik okultisme. Tulisan ini bertujuan mempercakapkan sikap Gereja HKBP saat ini dan di waktu yang akan datang terhadap praktik okultisme dan eksorsisme dalam masyarakat Batak Toba. Penulis akan menggunakan metode kualitatif dengan studi kepustakaan, yaitu upaya kontekstualisasi berbasis teori Stephen B. Bevans khususnya model sintesis dan berdasarkan pandangan Richard Niebuhr tentang Kristus dan Kebudayaan, Edgar H. Schein tentang struktur kebudayaan dan Martin Luther tentang Eksorsisme. Kajian ini menemukan bahwa tradisi Batak Toba mengandung nilai positif dan juga nilai negatif, oleh karena itu kajian ini menawarkan bahwa Gereja perlu melakukan kajian ulang terhadap budaya sehingga ditemukan tradisi yang benar, dan Gereja harus ambil bagian dalam praktik Eksorsisme.

Introduction. Z-drugs are a group of “non-benzodiazepine” drugs with the main mode of action regulating sleep behavior in humans through exposure to GABA receptors. There are reports indicating the toxic effects of overdose and abuse of zaleplon. However, information on the effect of Z-drugs on neurotransmitter levels is scarce.

The aim of this study was to study the effect of zaleplon exposure on neurotransmitter levels in the larvae of Danio fish using targeted metabolomics.

Material and methods. 4-hour exposure to zaleplon in concentrations of 0.1, 1.0, 10, 100 and 1000 μg/l was carried out on the larvae of Danio fish. Intervention groups were compared with control groups. Each group consisted of 20 larvae of Danio fish. Neurotransmitters and their metabolites were measured using high-performance liquid chromatography combined with tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS).

Results. Twenty-two metabolites associated with neurotransmission were quantified. Significantly increased metabolites were tryptophan, serotonin, 5-hydroxyindolacetic acid, acetylserotonin, epinephrine and choline. Significantly reduced metabolites were 5-hydroxytryptophan, 5-methoxytryptamine, dopamine, normetanephrine, metanephrine, kynurenine, 3-hydroxykinurenine, anthranilic acid and gamma-aminobutyric acid.

Limitation. When studying metabolic changes in neurotransmitters and toxic effects in Danio fish, the results of a group of 20 larvae were analyzed, which is a sufficient sample to state the results obtained.

Conclusion. Exposure to zaleplon caused metabolic changes in the concentrations of neurotransmitters associated with most major neurotransmitter systems.

Sağlık Kurumlarında şuan aktif olarak çalışan X, Y ve Z kuşakları farklı özellikleri bulunmaktadır. Bu özellikler kurumların genel işleyişini anlamakta, motive etmede ve yönlendirmede önemli bir takım bilgiler sunar. Literatürde henüz Türkçeleşmemiş olan boreout sendromu, anlam krizi, iş sıkıntısı ve gelişme krizi gibi boyutları ile çalışanların yaşadıkları olumsuz sendromlar arasında yer almaktadır. Sendroma ilişkin öncül ve sonuçlarına ilişkin araştırmalar olsa da kuşaklar arasında bir farklılığa sahip olup olmaması hakkında yeterince bilgi olmadığı düşünülmektedir. Bu sebeple kuşaklar arası boreout sendromunun istatistiksel açıdan bir farklılık oluşturup oluşturmadığı bu araştırmanın amacını oluşturmaktadır. Araştırma örneklemi Ordu ve Giresun illerinde çalışan kamu sağlık çalışanlarından 220 katılımcından oluşmaktadır. Katılımcılara Aralık 2022 ile Ocak 2023 sürecinde Türkçe geçerlilik ve güvenilirlik çalışması yapılan Boreout sendromu ölçeği ile sosyo demografik özelliklerinin yer aldığı anket çalışması uygulanmıştır. Yapılan tek yönlü varyans analizi sonucunda Z ile Y kuşağı ile Z ile X kuşağı arasında iş sıkıntısı üzerine anlamlı farklılık tespit edilmiştir. Ayrıca, Z ile X kuşakları arasında gelişme krizi farklılık yaratmaktadır. Araştırma bulgularına göre iş sıkıntısı ve gelişme krizi özellikle yeni kuşaklarda daha ön plana çıktığı görülmete diğer kuşaklardan ayrıldıkları anlaşılmaktadır. Yöneticilerin bu farklılıkları anlayıp henüz bu sendroma girmeden ya da girdikten sonra önlemler alması ve çözüme kavuşturması önerilmektedir.

Authors: Sheikh Jabir yousuf sheikh , Kanungo Ranjana
Published: June 2023

The outburst of Covid-19 pandemic has slowed down the economic progress both in developed and developing nations. Since its outburst, the stock markets have declined all around the globe. However, some industries become profoundly weak while others proceed to perform well even in the crisis period. Given this new phenomena we try to study the short-term effects of the outburst of new contagious disease COVID-19, on four BSE listed aviation companies in India by employing event study methodology. The outcomes reveal that Indian aviation stock returns drop more significantly than the BSE stock market returns in response to the four main COVID-19 press statements that were made during first half of year 2020. Generally, stockholders respond contrarily in the four selected events. The strong over response shown by the investors is noted during the on-event period of the announcements made by World Health Organization and the Indian government. Besides, the results endorses that investors of Indigo and Spicejet were more reactive to the announcements made related to Covid-19 outbreak. The findings demand for instant policy framework in order to lighten the bad effects of the pandemic in the airline sector in India
The Sense of Home and Memory in John Clare’s Asylum Poems
Authors: Hakkıoğlu Mümin
Published: June 2023

As a basic human need from past to present, home has been the subject of many disciplines where different perspectives converge and intersect each other in a multidimensional framework. This interdisciplinarity has transformed it into a concept that conveys much more than a visible and tangible reality. John Clare (1793-1864), a 19th century English poet who spent the last twenty-seven years of his life in asylum, also widely used home as a central theme. His sense of home in his asylum poems emerges peculiarly in three dimensions which are the countryside of his childhood and youth, the cottage where he lived, and his first love. In such a perspective, the different meanings of the concept become interwoven, and home gradually transforms from a tangible reality into a mental image and metaphor configured in his memory. The aim of this study is to reveal how the sense of home in Clare’s asylum poems can be associated with the poet’s countryside, cottage and first love, and to investigate the consistency of this relation through memory. The study is limited to the asylum poems to show how Clare responds to what the concept of home evokes under the influence of his mental disorder.

Lipophilic marine biotoxins include Azaspiracid-1 (AZA-1), Azaspiracid-2 (AZA-2), Azaspiracid-3 (AZA-3), Pectenotoxin-2 (PTX 2), Okadaic acid (OA), Dinophysistoxin-2 (DTX-2), Dinophysistoxin-1 (DTX-1), Yessotoxin (YTX), and 1-Homoyessotoxin (Homo-YTX) were extracted with methanol, followed by cleaning up with solid phase extraction technique (SPE). Lipophilic toxins were confirmed and quantified by liquid chromatography coupled with triple quadrupole mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS) using calibration curves on the solvent. The quantification limits of this method satisfied the requirements of the European Maximum Residue Limit (MRLs) with 25 µg/kg for the YTX group and 10 µg/kg for AZA, OA, and PTX groups. To validate the effectiveness of this method, matrices of clams, fish, and mixed seafood were collected and analyzed (recovery ranged from 92.4 - 101.5%, and relative standard deviation was less than 20%). The method was used successfully to participate in a proficiency testing program organized by Quasimeme (z-score in the range of ±2)

Moreover, it is also found from this study that the UAE government has already announced corporate governance in the various departments to enhance their performance. This study is based on quantitative analysis, which completely evaluates the corporate governance of the private healthcare workers in Dubai. In this study, the data was collected through survey questionnaires. The survey form was distributed among UAE healthcare providers and it was discovered that these workers want to maintain corporate governance in the health sector for better sector performance.
Influence of emotional intelligence on employees’ performance at work: An evidence from Indian banks
Authors: Shakeel Urooj , Khan Farhina Sardar
Published: June 2023

Emotional intelligence helps to resolve conflict in private and public institutions. Studies have found that increased emotional intelligence enhances performance and increases professionalism in the workforce. Given the massive growth in private sector banks in India, investment in the emotional intelligence of the workforce may improve service delivery and satisfaction of the customers. Using an empirical dataset, this study investigates how EI influences the work performance of private sector bank employees in India. The correlation between increased workplace performance and emotional intelligence is supported by regression analysis. Findings suggest that in scaled up settings, Indian banks can minimise conflicts, reduce costs, and improve service delivery by training their staff in EI.

In today’s dynamic business world, effective leadership is crucial. Although research in this area is expanding, there is still a lack of information regarding the relationships between gender and leadership style characteristics and effectiveness. In addition to examining the correlations between gender, leadership style, and effectiveness, this work examines the characteristics of different leadership styles. Four hundred faculties of higher education institutions provided information on the leadership characteristics and effectiveness of both men and women. During the study, seven characteristics of leadership styles were identified: goal-oriented, balanced, commanding, encouraging, team spirit, systematic thinking, and empowerment. One sample T-test was applied to the data for analysis. The results revealed a distinction between the leadership styles and effectiveness of men and women. Common leadership characteristics identified in women were balance, systematic thinking, encouragement, and goal-oriented, whereas men’s leadership characteristics included commanding empowerment and team spirit. This research article will be useful for academics, HRD professionals, and researchers.
THE PHENOMENON OF POWER IN THE CONCEPTS OF ARISTOTLE AND PLATO
Authors:   Egyptian University of Islamic Culture Nur-Mubarak, Malik Galym , Abeuova Shuga ,   Abai Kazakh National Pedagogical University
Published: June 2023

The article examines the problem of managing society according to the principle of «the power of the best» in the system of socio-philosophical views of Plato and Aristotle. The main definitions of this concept in the political theories of prominent thinkers of antiquity are shown. The purpose of this article is to analyze the views of ancient philosophers on the problem of the social avant-garde. This problem in ancient philosophy is represented, first of all, by the works of two of its most prominent representatives: Plato and Aristotle. Both thinkers did not use the concept of «social avant-garde», and the advanced part of society, which played a leading role in its development, was designated by them by the term "the best people". Understanding the role of the best people in the structure of the state and power occupies one of the central places in Plato's philosophical system. Plato calls the best people philosophers. It is the philosophers, according to Plato, who should have a leading role in the state. Highlighting the main features inherent in philosophers, Plato proceeds from reasoning about the three basic principles of the human soul: reasonable, unreasonable (desiring), and rage of the spirit (anger). These principles, according to the philosopher, are inherent
THE DOCTRINE OF THE SOUL OF AL-KINDI

In this article, the authors outlines the historical role of the great Arab thinker Abu Yusuf Yaqub ibn Ishaq al-Kindi for the entire world civilization, not only as a versatile scientist, philosopher, but primarily as the founder of the Arabic translation movement. Al-Kindi stood at the origins of another intellectual trend - "falsafa". Falsafa is a doctrine based on the ancient tradition with its boundless faith in the cognitive abilities of the mind. But can al-Kindi be considered a true falasifa? To understand the versatility of his teaching, one must have an idea of the intellectual atmosphere in which the thinker lived and worked. The contradictions between reason and faith, philosophy and religion at that time were born by themselves. The translation movement only exacerbated these contradictions. Al-Kindi made a brilliant attempt to eliminate the differences and intellectual controversies surrounding the question: "Will the evidence of reason or the revelation of the prophets point the right way to the truth?" Despite the fact that the attempt was unsuccessful, it inspired al-Kindi to create his doctrine of the soul. The authors analyzes how the original teaching about the soul of al-Kindi absorbed a lot of ancient philosophical thought, but learned no less from the Holy Quran. The purpose of the authors was to show that the versatile genius of al-Kindi cannot be assessed within the framework of any teaching, even such an influential one in Arab-Muslim philosophy as falsafa.

En este caso concretado en un detalle parcial de la Iglesia de Santiago de Cáceres, como es un tramo de la cubierta, precisamente aquel que se separa de la traza unitaria de Gil de Hontañón, que abarca de la cabecera a los pies. El conocimiento y expresión gráfica de un elemento patrimonial resulta clave para su difusión y protección. El proceso seguido para la toma de datos y la consiguiente expresión gráfica arquitectónica permite presentar en imágenes conocimientos históricos recogidos en la literatura, pero lejos del gran público. La precisión en los resultados obtenidos por escáner es compatible con el conocimiento personal del espacio, que requiere una reflexión constante y un acercamiento físico al lugar con la participación de los cinco sentidos, permitiendo una razonada toma y tratamiento de los datos obtenidos.
Reseña del libro: Metaficción y feminismo en la novela latinoamericana finisecular escrita por mujeres: Diamela Eltit, Laura Restrepo, Gioconda Belli, Paula Pérez Alonso, Zoe Valdés
Authors: Parra Triana Clara María
Published: June 2023

El libro logra conectar la tradición teórica de los estudios literarios, específicamente de cómo se conforma un concepto de “metaficción”, rastreando su presencia en novelas latinoamericanas escritas por mujeres, todas ellas con enfoque de género. Esta intersección, permite reconocer categorías tales como “tiempo -espacio” o, la “recurrencia cíclica del determinismo cultural”, y el “sincretismo” como procedimiento de escritura, que, entre otros, es un intento de estabilización del yo. Por otra parte, establece la perspectiva de “lo otro/la otra” como una posibilidad de reposicionamiento que permite ensayar sentidos, interroga a “la maternidad”; explora “la convivencia” en espacios privados, “el vínculo” con el espacio exterior; utiliza “el cuerpo” como expresión elocuente de sentidos; reconoce “los sueños”, entendidos como un tercer espacio para la vida, haciendo suya “la fisura” como un elemento de constitución de identidad. Todo ello ofrece nuevo discurso compuesto por una multiplicidad de voces que explicitan el poder de la palabra como espacio de reflexión.

El sistema educacional chileno no trabaja ni evalúa correctamente la habilidad de la escritura creativa literaria. Desde sus bases curriculares (2017) no se incluyen objetivos de aprendizaje de este tema en la mayor parte de los cursos de secundaria. Por este motivo, el objetivo principal de este artículo es diseñar y aplicar una rúbrica de diagnóstico a un grupo concreto de estudiantes chilenos de secundaria, que permita evaluar dicha habilidad. A partir de una investigación mayor (grupo de estudiantes chilenos con n=25) en la que se identificaron diversos problemas relacionados a la escritura creativa literaria, fue desarrollada una rúbrica para evaluar aquellos aspectos descendidos. El desarrollo de esta rúbrica tuvo cuatro fases que son importantes para desarrollar la evaluación y el aprendizaje significativos. La metodología utilizada es cualitativa y la recolección de datos se basó en la escritura de cuentos por parte de estudiantes chilenos de secundaria. Además, el proceso de construcción de la rúbrica y sus diferentes fases fueron validadas por expertos.
La evaluación participativa y la negociación con el alumnado: una propuesta basada en la Pedagogía de la Ignorancia
Authors: Martos Garcia Daniel , García Puchades Wenceslao
Published: June 2023

La participación del alumnado en cuantas facetas de su educación sea posible está relacionada con una educación democrática, puede que incluso con intenciones de emancipación. Este artículo describe y valora críticamente una experiencia en la que futuro profesorado en formación discutió y decidió el sistema de evaluación de una asignatura, así como los criterios de calificación. Para ello, los docentes adoptaron la Pedagogía de la Ignorancia, basada en los postulados del filósofo francés Rancière. La innovación fue evaluada desde el paradigma interpretativo. Bajo este prisma, los datos se recogieron mediante diarios reflexivos tanto del alumnado participante como de los docentes e investigadores, así como con dos grupos de discusión. El análisis posterior de los datos evidencia la complejidad de la tarea de negociación, avalada por multitud de sesiones dedicadas a ella, al mismo tiempo que reflejan su utilidad para entender la evaluación, sus valores y bondades y su poder reflexivo. En este sentido, el alumnado se movió entre la satisfacción por la cesión de autoridad y la preocupación por su necesidad de acumular conocimientos. Además, se hacen explícitas las emociones provocadas en los profesores al implementar una innovación de este calado, como cierto desasosiego. Con todo, se concluye que estas experiencias son necesarias para una formación crítica y reflexiva, hasta cierto punto contrahegemónicas, aunque no dejan de ser simulacros de emancipación.
Decolonizing South Asian architecture: Sustainable and community-criented cocial housing in India
Authors: Ghom Pashmeena Vikramjit , George Abraham
Published: June 2023

Decolonization process in India involved a range of political, economic, and social changes aimed at dismantling the colonial system and building a new, independent nation. One of the most significant challenges India faced during the decolonization process was the issue of partition. The partition of India in 1947 led to the creation of two separate countries—India and Pakistan—and resulted in widespread violence and displacement. Millions of people were forced to migrate across the newly formed borders, resulting in one of the largest mass migrations in human history which created huge demand for housing. The methodology adopted for this research is based on qualitative analysis and the data source for this study are government reports, research articles, books and newspaper. Further, it examines four case studies of social housing projects designed to provide sustainable and livable solutions for low-income families in different regions of India, including Aranya Community Housing, Incremental Housing in Belapur, ATIRA Staff Housing in Ahmadabad, and CIDCO Housing in Parsik Hill in Navi Mumbai. At the core of the article lies an investigation into the dynamic nature of architecture in the aftermath of independence, coupled with a detailed examination of four distinct social housing ventures. The social housing studies demonstrate innovative and flexible approaches to social housing, with a focus on community building, energy efficiency, and social amenities. The projects have been successful in providing access to affordable and sustainable housing for low-income families in different regions of India. The case studies highlight the importance of a community-centered approach to social housing, emphasizing the need for shared spaces and amenities. The article discusses the challenges and opportunities of implementing sustainable and livable social housing solutions in India.
Social housing in Spain: obsolescence and intervention strategies
Authors: López González Concepción
Published: June 2023

Social housing in Spain has its origin in the first Cheap Houses Law that was promulgated in 1911, trying to provide a solution to a housing need for the working class who flocked to the cities in waves of migration from rural areas. Since then, legislative initiatives have been taking place to mitigate the housing problem. Each one of them was contributing elements that presumably contributed to the hygiene and habitability of the house without forgetting the economic conditions. At the moment, in Spain there is a large real estate park inherited from these initiatives. In many cases, these are neighborhoods that currently show notable energy and social vulnerability. Aware of the need to adapt these homes to the regulatory requirements related to energy efficiency, comfort and the physical and technical characteristics of the construction, the Research Centers are developing multiple investigations aimed at favoring the adaptability of homes and improving the quality of life of its inhabitants. This article takes a tour of the evolution that social housing has had during the 20th century in Spain and the current state of research aimed at adapting it to the new energy, habitability and sustainability requirements.
Environmental and genetic factors affecting litter size components in rabbits

Published: June 2023

In rabbits, ovulation rate is, together with prenatal survival, one of the main limiting factors for litter size. Both components are affected by several factors related to females and their environment. Thus, understanding these components and their factors of variation is key in designing diets, optimisation of reproductive performance and genetic selection. In this review, authors summarise the main components of litter size and their environmental factors of variation. Genetic factors and the main results of genetic selection programmes on components of litter size are also summarised. In this regard, a negative effect of dietary restriction and reduced day light hours is found, as well as a positive effect of body condition, parity order and age of female on ovulation rate. However, an increase in deterioration of oocyte quality has been reported as ovulation rate increases, leading to decreased embryonic and foetal survival. Dietary restriction and heat stress also have a negative effect on embryonic and foetal survival, increasing the failures during gestation while good vascularisation and enough available space in uterine horn are keys to embryonic and foetal survival. Ovulation rate was proposed as indirect selection criterion to improve litter size due to higher heritability. However, this selection was relevant, but it did not modify litter size because of an increase in prenatal mortality. Uterine capacity has been directly related to prenatal survival, although its selection has also been unsuccessful in increasing litter size.
Violência Psicológica Intrafamiliar: Considerações Psicanalíticas sobre Crianças que Vivenciam esse Trauma
Authors: Santos Larissa Dias Fernandes dos , Quixadá Luciana Martins
Published: June 2023

A violência psicológica contra crianças é um tipo de abuso silencioso que por muitos ainda é subestimado, principalmente no que diz respeito aos impactos emocionais que provoca em suas vítimas. É um problema pouco estudado e preocupante, uma vez que a infância constitui uma fase fundamental à estruturação psíquica. Neste trabalho, buscamos compreender a violência psicológica, bem como promover um debate acerca das implicações afetivas desse fenômeno na infância com base na psicanálise. Para isso, realizamos uma pesquisa bibliográfica que admitiu como fonte livros e artigos, tanto de referência psicanalítica quanto que abordavam a temática da infância e da violência contra a criança. Consideramos que o abuso psicológico contra a criança se manifesta por meio de hostilidade, rejeição, ações de intenso controle e outros comportamentos adversos dos cuidadores que minam a possibilidade de um ambiente seguro e amoroso ao desenvolvimento infantil. Percebemos que o abuso emocional provoca rupturas no processo de saúde psíquica e no desenvolvimento da criança, podendo ocasionar adoecimentos psíquicos e comprometimentos na constituição subjetiva dos sujeitos. Apesar dos evidentes avanços no que se refere aos direitos do público infantil, a criança não está protegida por dispositivos seguros e eficazes, e a violência psicológica que sofre ainda é uma realidade pouco notada em muitas esferas sociais, dificultando a construção de planos de ações que forneçam medidas para novos enfrentamentos sobre ela.
