Published: April 2020

The occurrence of multi-drug resistant Staphylococcus aureus in food product of animal
origin has increased the concern about their spread into the food supply chain. Presence of
multidrug-resistant S. aureus in food products, including ready-to-eat foods imposes
potential hazard for consumers. The objective of this research was to investigate the
presence of multi-drug resistance of S. aureus in sixty ready-to-eat shawarma sandwiches.
Agar-disc diffusion assay determined their resistance to 11 antibiotics. The sea and sed
enterotoxin genes were detected by polymerase chain reaction method. Biofilm formation
potential (BFP) was quantified by microtitre plate assay. The result revealed that thirty-six
samples (60%) were positive for S. aureus. Majority of the isolates (n = 29; 80.6%) were
resistant to at least one antibiotic. The isolates demonstrated highest resistance against
ampicillin (69.4%) and penicillin (69.4%), while resistance to ciprofloxacin, tetracycline
and kanamycin were 47.2%, 33.3% and 22.2%, respectively. Several isolates were
resistant to trimethoprim (5.6%), trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole- (2.8%), gentamicin
(2.8%) and cephalothin (2.8%), while none exhibited resistance to chloramphenicol and
nitrofurantoin. Out of the thirty-six isolates, twelve isolates (33.3%) were resistant to three
or more classes of antibiotic (multidrug-resistant) and 50% had a Multiple Antibiotic
Resistance index value more than 0.25. Of the multi-drug resistant isolates, four were
positive for sea genes but no sed genes were present. All multi-drug resistance isolates
were biofilm formers with five and six isolates were strong and moderate formers,
respectively. Additionally, all the sea gene carrying multi-drug resistance isolates were
strong biofilm formers. These findings revealed shawarma as a potential vehicle for the
spread of multidrug-resistant S. aureus, suggesting more control measures for ready-to-eat
food.
CAPOEIRA, ESPAÇO E CIDADANIA: UM ESFORÇO DE ANÁLISE A PARTIR DE NARRATIVAS DE MESTRES CAPOEIRISTAS
Authors: Oliveira Elvis Reis de , Freire Ana Lucy Oliveira
Published: April 2020

Esse trabalho objetiva investigar, através de relatos orais dos mestres capoeiristas, a relação estabelecida entre a capoeira e a cidadania. Como prática metodológica, foi realizada uma pesquisa qualitativa. Sendo assim, para compreender os aspectos que envolvem a capoeira vivenciada na cidade de Vitória (ES), optou-se pela aplicação de entrevista semiestruturada.  A base para a investigação parte das narrativas dos respectivos mestres de cada grupo estudado.  Entendemos que cada grupo de capoeira tem suas particularidades, a sua história, sua trajetória, tal como a história dos personagens do grupo que se configura na personificação dos mestres. Todos os grupos pesquisados carregam consigo uma característica em comum que é a utilização de espaços públicos, ou seja, espaços de convívio coletivo para realização de suas atividades. A capoeira praticada em Vitória, surge como uma alternativa de manifestação cultural que ocupa e ressignifica os lugares públicos da cidade. Ao longo da pesquisa é percebido que o principal componente que auxilia na ampliação da cidadania são os valores transmitidos pela oralidade e pela experiência de vida dos mestres, que passam de geração a geração.
SCHOOL TECHNOLOGIES ОF PRESERVING STUDENTS' HEALTH: GENERAL CLASSIFICATION
Authors: Hlinchuk Yuliia
Published: April 2020

The rapid loss of health of the younger generations during school education makes it a pressing problem for students to maintain their health during the learning process. This problem is extremely important not only for the general education environment but also for institutions of higher and postgraduate education, since the safety of the educational process for the health of students depends first and foremost on the teacher. However, to date, the problem of student health technologies has not been sufficiently studied. In particular, there is no single approach to the name and overall classification of such technologies. The article analyzes the views of scientists on the nature of student health technologies.
Based on this, the term "school technologies of preserving students' health" and a general classification of student health preservation technologies are proposed for use, which logically integrates existing semantic interpretations. We believe that it is appropriate to separate school technologies for preserving students' health into appropriate health (technologies implemented in the educational process without compromising the health of the subjects: taking into account individual, age, gender characteristics; ergonomic, technical, organizational norms educational process, etc.) and health-saving (technologies aimed at shaping students' competences in maintaining their own health and that of other people: fostering a culture of health, health of the same lifestyle, sanogenic thinking etc.). It is noted that the results of theoretical analysis of the problem of general classification of school technologies of preserving students' health actualize the problem of further detailed classification of these technologies and ways of their introduction in the educational process of general educational institutions.
TEACHING HOW TO WRITE A RESEARCH PAPER
Authors: Hatziolou Elizabeth , Sofiou Stamatia
Published: April 2020

The article aims at offering help to lecturers that want to teach their students how to write an acceptable research paper. As grammar and/or syntax can contribute to writing correct sentences but cannot aid students in developing a well-written research paper, lecturers should teach their students how to acquire important skills that will help them to compose a correct research paper. Such skills involve the acquisition of the ability to develop paragraphs, a series of sentences developing one topic, and the composition of a paper through a series of paragraphs that develop several related topics. Paragraphs need to include unity, coherence, transition, reasons – to accept the arguments in the research paper – and some examples in order to give the reasons in the research paper more validity. While long paragraphs can make the reader tired, many short paragraphs can become monotonous and boring. In other words, the length of paragraphs in a research paper is important. So is a closing, a summary sentence for the end of the development of the topic sentence, signalling that the writer is ready to move on to another idea and lists of details, like illustrations, examples, contrast, comparison, cause and effect and a combination of methods. The purpose of the research paper is considered to be of utmost importance and corresponds to one of the four main types of writing, including explanation, argument or mixtures, depending on the title and the central idea. Limiting the subject by providing an outline is helpful in organizing the student’s thoughts and avoiding overlapping. The inclusion of citations and a bibliography are obligatory for diligence in fulfilling the requirements of the university or college.

Ikan Lemuru memiliki kelebihan yaitu keberadaannya yang berlimpah di perairan lau Indonesia, harganya yang sangat murah serta kandungan omega-3 yang sangat baik untuk tubuh. Kebutuhan akan ikan lemuru (Sardinella lemuru) yang tinggi menyebabkan tingginya angka penangkapan komoditas ini di perairain, sehingga dapat menyebabkan resiko penurunan jumlah populasi dialam. Pengelolaan yang tepat pada komoditas ini tentunya diperlukan akan dapat meminimalisir resiko yang dapat terjadi. Pengelolaan akan dapat terlaksana dengan tepat apabila berdasarkan atas data informasi yang memadai, salah satunya adalah informasi mengenai keragaman genetiknya. Kajian ini mengumpulkan pustaka dari penelitian terdahulu mengenai keragaman genetik ikan lemuru (Sardinella lemuru) di Wilayah Perairan Indonesia untuk dapat memberikan gambaran mengenai keragaman Ikan Lemuru dari segi genetiknya. Nilai keragaman genetik dilihat dari nilai keragaman haplotipe (Hd) karena keduanya memiliki kolerasi yang positif untuk menggambarkan keragaman genetik dari suatu komoditas. Hasil kajian memperlihatkan nilai keragaman genetik ikan lemuru (Sardinella lemuru) di Wilayah Perairan Indonesia memiliki nilai yang termasuk kategori tinggi. Hasil ini menggambarkan bahwa ditengah tingginya kegiatan penangkapan, ikan lemuru (Sardinella lemuru) secara genetik masih memiliki keragaman yang tinggi sehingga dimungkinkan komoditas Ikan Lemuru memiliki adaptasi yang tinggi terhadap kondisi lingkungan.Kata kunci: Sardinella lemuru, keragaman genetik, keragaman haplotipe Sardinella lemuru is pelagic commodities that have economic values for the Indonesian. S. lemuru has some of the major advantages, such as much population on Indonesian marine, low price, and has Omega-3 for the human body. The high demands of Lemuru Fish cause a high rate of cached, that can cause the risk of population degradation. Proper management of these commodities are needed to decrease the risk impact, that can be done rightly based on the equal value of information, and one of them is genetic diversity. This research compiles the recent researches about the genetic diversity of the Sardinella lemuru in Indonesian to get the explanation about Lemuru Fish diversity. The value of genetic diversity observed is based on the diversity value of Haplotype (Hd), because these two values have a positive correlation to make a whole representation from a commodity. The results of this review show that the genetic diversity of Lemuru Fish on Indonesian marine territorial has the high-value category. These results explain that in the high activities of fishing, Lemuru Fish genetically still have a high diversity that leads to the conclusion Lemuru Fish commodities has a high-level ability to adapt from environmental conditions.Keywords: Sardinella lemuru; genetic diversity; haplotype diversity

This paper fosters the importance and need of international cooperation for use & promotion of Information and Communication Technologies for economic change in Nigeria among professional accountants. The concept of “Information Society” has made it imperative that no country can develop without involving and focusing on regional and global development perspectives. Collaboration has become the key word. When we talk of integrated socio-economic change, it takes into account many areas which can benefit from faster access and enhanced productivities by using ICT. Some case studies on use of ICT for different initiatives within Nigeria are reviewed and conclusions drawn on how it does support the socio-economic change and development, which may be similar and bear lessons for other developing countries. The supply side of ICTs has increased substantially in Kenya. For example, the number of mobile phone subscribers has more than tripled over the past five years, while FM radio stations have proliferated all over the country. There has been a lot of enthusiasm on internet usage with the landing of three undersea fibre optic cables in Lagos and their subsequent operationalization. Marxs of mobile phone service providers and communication equipment now dot both the rural and urban landscapes, and advertisements for some form of ICTs are common on billboards along major highways and roads.

The pot experiment was conducted in the Screen house, Department of Soil Science Faculty of Agriculture, University of Papua Manokwari. The pot experiment has been done using Completed Randomize Design with 7 treatments and four replications , namely: A0 = no fertilizer (treatment); A1 = 100% crandalitte extract + 0% organic fraction + 0% potassium; A2 = 80% crandalitte extract + 10% organic fraction + 10% potassium; A3 = 60% crandalitte extract + 20% organic fraction +2 0% potassium; A4 = 40% crandalitte extract + 30% organic fraction + 30% potassium; A5 = 20% crandalitte extract + 40% organic fraction + 40% potassium, and; A6 = 0% crandalitte extract + 50% organic fraction + 50% potassium. The dosage of each treatment was 100-liter ha-1 (4 g Pot -1). Some soil chemical characteristics were analyzed for pH (H2O), pH (KCl), N-Total, C-organic, P-available, K-total, and Al-exchangeable. P, K, Fe concentrations. The plant growth variables were measured mainly for long steam on 5, 6, 7 and 8 weeks after planting, biomass of trubus, Data were analyzed using statistical analyses of Analysis of Variance (F Test) and DMRT test. The result showed that the application of crandalitte extract, humic fraction and potassium was significantly increased the status of P-available and H-exchangeable, but not affected significantly for other soil chemical characteristics (pH H2O, pH KCl, C-organic percentage, N-total, and Al-exchangeable). Fresh and dry weight of sweet potato trubus were also significantly affected by those application, however it was not affected significantly on long steam; wet weight and dry weight of root and also root length of sweet potato. Among the treatments, the A2 treatment (80% EFC: 10% Organic fraction: 10% Potassium) showed a better value of the status P-available, H-exchangeable and the biomass of trubus. This might be related to the characteristic of acid mineral soil that need high P fertilizer and the balance application of organic matter and potassium.

Konversi Agama Ditinjau Dari Persfektif Kecerdasan Kognitif Dan Berfikir Kritis
Authors: Saputra Eddy
Published: April 2020

Perubahan dalam dalam bentuk apapun adalah sebuah keniscayaan, baik disengaja ataupun tidak disengaja, baik dikaitkan dengan campur tangan tuhan ataupun karena usaha yang keras dari manusianya. Perubahan juga sering terjadi pada keyakinan atau sering disebut dengan konversi pada agama. Dalam penelitian ini yang akan dibahas adalah perubahan dari agama non muslim menjadi agama Islam, perubahan ini sering kali dimulai dari sikap kritis yang mengandalkan kecerdasan kognitif, berawal dari sebuah pencarian dimana pada agama lama banyak hal yang kadang dianggap tidak masuk akal serta mulai mengaitkan jika agama harus mampu diterima oleh logika manusia. Mulailah mencari sebanyak-banyak informasi agar dapat membuat perbandingan antar agama yang lama dengan agama yang akan dituju sehingga pada akhirnya diambillah sebuah keputusan. Tulisan ini menggunakan metodologi  kualitatif dan studi pustaka, ada beberapa nara sumber yang dijadikan data karena terlibat langsung dalam terjadinya konversi agama sebagai penguat data. Tujuan penelitian ini memberikan informasi bahwa perubahan harus dilakukan berdasarkan pengetahuan yang bersumber pada kecerdasan kognitif dan berfikir kritis, sehingga hasilnya dapat dipertanggung jawabkan.
Taxing Earnings from the Platform Economy: An EU Digital Single Window for Income Data?
Authors: Ogembo Daisy , Lehdonvirta Vili
Published: April 2020

Income earned through gig platforms, letting platforms, and other digital intermediaries presents new challenges for taxation. This article evaluates the efforts of three European Union Member States – Denmark, Estonia, and France – to obtain data on platform users’ earnings directly from platform companies, including Uber, Airbnb, and domestic platforms. The authors furthermore assess the viability of scaling up the national initiatives into an EU-level “Digital Single Window” that would facilitate the automated reporting of income data by platforms, and the forwarding of that data to national tax and social security agencies for taxation and collection according to national rules.
RNA-seq of a lung sample from a male COVID19 deceased patient (age 74) submitted by Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai does not show the anaerobic/aerobic homeostasis disruption observed in other patient samples - an artifact of post-mortem procedures?
Authors: Chakraborty Sandeep
Published: April 2020

Here, I have analyzed the RNA-seq of a lung sample from a male COVID19 deceased patient (age 74) submitted by Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai (Accid:PRJNA615032). There are two replicates, which I have pooled into a single sample. The analysis (Table 1, SI/bact.txt) does not show the anaero- bic/aerobic homeostasis disruption observed in some patient samples [1–3]. Although not all samples show anaerobic/aerobic homeostasis disruption [4–6], they are possibly patients in the early phase of the disease. The findings in the current deceased patient (viral load is very low, SI/viralreads.fa) however does not align with the hypothesis [7], unless there are artifacts arising from obtaining the lung sample. Since obligate anaerobic bacteria cant tolerate more than 5% oxygen, and atmospheric oxygen is much higher, could these have been killed after atmospheric exposure? Note, anaerobic bacteria are present - its just that they don’t seem to have colonized the lung of the deceased patient.
Culture, Cognition, and Social Exchange: A Classic Case Study of Social Negotiation Network Dynamics
Authors: Stolte John
Published: April 2020

How do automatic vs. controlled, hot vs. cold, and agentic vs. communal facets of cultural cognition operate together in a perspective informed by social neuroscience? This question is explored by re-imagining Malinowski’s classic ethnographic case study of the Kula in light of a contemporary social exchange theory of negotiation networks. We propose: (1) sub-institutional patterns of power-dependence form a structural foundation for the rise of tacit meanings, which evolve through social negotiation into explicit, cultural meaning agreements; (2) crucial sub-cultural categories form around the pursuit of both agentic benefits and communal benefits; (3) an individual is culturally shaped through externalization, socialization, and internalization to value and seek both kinds of benefits; (4) an individual faces the existential task of navigating both agentic and communal situations across the negotiation network; (5) the basic individual mechanism underlying such navigation entails motivated behavioral choice and motivated cultural cognition; (6) a behavioral choice rests on automatic, largely implicit and hot cognitive processing; (7) motivated cultural cognition rests mostly on the deliberate, mostly explicit, and cool selection of materials from the prevailing cultural toolkit for assembling a justification, but whose underlying trajectory is biased by an automatic, hot value-position, whether agentic or communal. Based on the analysis, some directions for future empirical research are suggested

This book represents a New Theory about light which offers an easier way to understand the mathematical principles on which the theory for a Black Hole has been based. The fundamental difference with existing theories is the implementation of the anisotropic property of mass for light within the interaction with gravity. This "New Theory" has been based on the fundamental principle of a perfect Equlibrium in the entire universe in space and in time and unifies Newtonian Physics with Electrodynamics, Quantum Physics and General Relativity.

Understanding the cell biology of SARS-CoV-2 endocytosis for COVID-19 drug repurposing: looking beyond chloroquine
Authors: Glebov Oleg
Published: April 2020

The quest for the effective treatment against COVID-19 pneumonia caused by the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus is hampered by the lack of knowledge concerning the basic cell biology of the infection. Given that most viruses use endocytosis to enter the host cell, mechanistic investigation of SARS-CoV-2 infection needs to consider the diversity of endocytic pathways available for SARS-CoV-2 entry in the human lung epithelium. Taking advantage of the well-established methodology of membrane trafficking studies, this research direction allows for rapid characterisation of the key cell biological mechanism(s) responsible for SARS-CoV-2 infection. Furthermore, 11 clinically approved generic drugs are identified as potential candidates for repurposing as blockers of several potential routes for SARS-CoV-2 endocytosis. More broadly, the paradigm of targeting a fundamental aspect of human cell biology to protect against infection may be advantageous in the context of future pandemic outbreaks.
A Matter of Perspective: How adults represent causal launching sequences
Authors: Benton Deon T. , Rakison David H.
Published: April 2020

The ability to reason about causal events in the world is fundamental to cognition. Despite the importance of this ability, little is known about how adults represent causal events, what structure or form those representations take, and what the mechanism is that underpins such representations. We report four experiments with adults that examine the perceptual basis on which adults represent four-object launching sequences (Experiments 1 and 2), whether adults representations reflect sensitivity to the causal, perceptual, or causal and perceptual relation among the objects that comprise such sequences (Experiment 3), and whether such representations extend beyond spatiotemporal contiguity to include other low-level stimulus features such as an object’s shape and color (Experiment 4). Based on these results of the four experiments, we argue that a domain-general associative mechanism, rather a modular, domain-specific, mechanism subserves adults’ representations of four-object launching sequences.

Determining the meanings of words requires language learners to attend to what other people say. However, it behooves a young language learner to simultaneously attend to what other people attend to, for example, by following the direction of their eye gaze. Sensitivity to cues such as eye gaze might be particularly important for bilingual infants, as they encounter less consistency between words and objects than monolinguals, and do not always have access to the same word learning heuristics (e.g., mutual exclusivity). In a pre-registered study, we tested the hypothesis that bilingual experience would lead to a more pronounced ability to follow another’s gaze. We used the gaze-following paradigm developed by Senju & Csibra (2008) to test a total of 93 6–9 month-old and 229 12–15 month-old monolingual and bilingual infants, in 11 labs located in 8 countries. Monolingual and bilingual infants showed similar gaze-following abilities, and both groups showed age-related improvements in speed, accuracy, frequency and duration of fixations to congruent objects. Unexpectedly, bilinguals tended to make more frequent fixations to onscreen objects, whether or not they were cued by the actor. These results suggest that gaze sensitivity is a fundamental aspect of development that is robust to variation in language exposure.

Proteína moduladora de la actividad del receptor de aril hidrocarburos (AIP): genética, bioquímica e impacto clínico
Authors: Florez Romero Andres , Rojas William , Reverend L. Carlos , Torres Lilian , Quintero Gloria
Published: April 2020

El gen AIP (proteína moduladora de la actividad del receptor de aril hidrocarburos) se localiza en la región 11q13.2 y codifica para una proteína de 330 aminoácidos que interactúa con el factor de transcripción AhR (receptor para aril hidrocarburos). Las mutaciones en este gen se han asociado con adenomas pituitarios aislados de tipo familiar (APAF). Se caracterizan por una presentación temprana (alrededor de 20 años), por lo regular producen hormona de crecimiento y/o prolactina, tienen un comportamiento clínico agresivo y poca respuesta a análogos de somatostatina.

Published: April 2020

Introducción: el síndrome de Guillain-Barré (SGB) es una polineurorradiculopatía desmielinizante aguda inmunomediada. El síntoma principal es la debilidad muscular. El objetivo del presente estudio es describir las características del episodio agudo, las secuelas neurológicas a largo plazo y cómo estas afectan la situación laboral y las actividades de tiempo libre. Materiales y métodos: estudio realizado en dos fases: primera, descripción retrospectiva de casos; segunda, corte transversal donde se interrogaron las secuelas neurológicas y sus implicaciones. Resultados: se identificaron 63 casos de SGB con edad promedio de 50,79 años (DE 17.8), más frecuente en hombres (61,9%) y cuyo promedio de la escala Hughes en el episodio agudo fue 3,2 (DE ± 10,1). Las principales complicaciones durante la fase aguda fueron neumonía (7,94 %) y úlceras por presión (3,17 %). Se logró contactar vía telefónica a 28 pacientes, 82,1% presentó al menos un síntoma como secuela, 60,7% parestesias, 57,1% fatiga, 50% calambres y 46,4% dolor de características neuropáticas. El 32,1% tuvo cambios o retiro de su trabajo por las secuelas; 21,43% debió modificar sus actividades de tiempo libre. Conclusión: existe alta prevalencia de síntomas residuales discapacitantes después del episodio agudo de SGB con predominio de síntomas sensitivos, coincidiendo con estudios realizados en países desarrollados. Estas alteraciones ocasionan un impacto negativo en la actividad laboral y en la de tiempo libre de los pacientes.
Perspectiva global y acción local para un programa doctoral en ciencias de la salud
Authors: Gómez Arley , Rojas Adriana , Segura Omar
Published: April 2020

Con el objeto de ponderar las condiciones actuales requeridas para un programa doctoral en Ciencias de la Salud en Colombia, se elaboró un documento base y de posición para explorar su viabilidad y factibilidad de desarrollo. Mediante una estrategia de revisión teórica, discusión de expertos y definición de categorías, se establecieron temas centrales para el estudio y comprensión de la situación. A través de un proceso heurístico, se definieron cinco categorías clave; “historia de los doctorados”, “perspectiva global”, “situación nacional”, “elementos en la FUCS” y “prospectiva”, que muestran un panorama mundial de sobreoferta y precariedad laboral versus la necesidad y la posibilidad de generar localmente desarrollos e innovaciones en salud, a condición que un doctorado respete condiciones de excelencia, integralidad y protección del estudiante y del talento humano formado. La conclusión fundamental es que un programa PhD en Ciencias de la Salud es viable en la medida de la factibilidad y la fortaleza de factores tales como unos proyectos bien planteados y ejecutados, un equipo de supervisores y codirectores expertos y competentes, y un conjunto de capacidades administrativa, financiera y estructural, todo lo cual implica, al final, voluntades políticas y directivas.
L'attrito del metro
Authors: Tranchida Giuseppe Giorgio
Published: April 2020

This article analyses the use of the sonnet in Valerio Magrelli’s poetry, focusing on the effect of friction produced by metrical choices in relation to the other textual levels. The essay highlights the relationship between the author’s sonnets and free verse production and some models of Italian twentieth-century tradition. The study examines the texts in detail and shows how meter is used to generate short circuits and new paths of meaning under the surface of the text.
Sztuka – artyzm animacji. Twórczość Tomasza Bagińskiego (perspektywa socjologiczna)
Authors: Grodź Iwona
Published: April 2020

Tytuł i temat: Sztuka – artyzm animacji wpisuje się w założenia szerszego problemu, związku czy wzajemnego przenikania się takich sfer ludzkiej egzystencji, jaksocjologia i kino. Dzieje się tak już na poziomie języka, a więc semantyki i użycia pojęcia „komercjalizacja”. Pociąga ono za sobą cały szereg wyobrażeń i innych słów kluczy (jak „produkt”, „ekonomia prestiżu”, „menadżer sztuki” itp.), coraz częściej stosowanych w filmowej nomenklaturze w odniesieniu do tej twórczej aktywności, zamiast wcześniejszych: „tekst kultury”, „jakość”, „wartość”, „artysta”. Celem autorki artykułu jest, po pierwsze, próba wskazania udanego, bo twórczego i korzystnego związku między sztuką kinematograficzną a socjologią i/lub ekonomią, w myśl idei przedsiębiorczości i komercjalizacji wyników działalności artystycznej, a po drugie namysł nad relacją między jakością a wartością sztuki, kiczem a komercjalizacją.
Czy tylko slash? O zagubionej różnorodności twórczości erotycznej fanów medialnych
Authors: Bajor Jan
Published: April 2020

Tworzona amatorsko erotyczna literatura – i sztuka – stanowi jeden z istotnych elementów kultury fanowskiej praktycznie od początku jej istnienia. W wyniku zmian technologicznych i przeniesienia się fandomów w środowisko Internetu twórczość ta przechodzi w ostatnich latach okres dynamicznego, zarówno ilościowego, jak i jakościowego rozwoju. Przemiany te są jednak w niewielkim stopniu opisane w literaturze naukowej na temat fanów, w tym tej bezpośrednio poruszającej temat erotyki. Celem autora niniejszego artykułu jest diagnoza najważniejszych przyczyn tego stanu rzeczy poprzez przedstawienie i krytykę dominujących ujęć omawianego problemu. Analizując dostępną literaturę naukową, autor zwraca szczególną uwagę na wpływ tradycji fan studies i tendencję do traktowania „erotycznych fandomów” jako samodzielnego zjawiska, analizowanego w oddzieleniu od głównego nurtu funkcjonowania społeczności fanowskich. W ostatniej części tekstu autor proponuje kilka sugestii teoretycznych, których zastosowanie umożliwiłoby pełniejsze i bardziej trafne badanie fanowskiej erotyki.
