Teachers’ Beliefs and Practices of Motivational Strategies in EFL Classrooms and Learners’ Attitudes
Authors: Abdulrahman Altalhi Shatha
Published: December 2020

This study reports on EFL teachers’ personal beliefs regarding motivational strategies, and details how teachers apply motivational strategies in the EFL Saudi classrooms. A discussion is included about the extent to which motivational strategies influence EFL learners’ attitudes toward language learning, because of the need of using motivational strategies in EFL classrooms at Taif university, this research used a mixed approach research design, and accordingly, the researcher used one questionnaire that was adapted Dornyie & Cheng (2007) to ask about eighteen teachers’ beliefs concerning motivational strategies and used a similar questionnaire with 150 first-year students to evaluate how their teachers apply the motivational strategies in the EFL classroom. Students’ attitudes toward L2 learning were further measured by another adapted questionnaire of Eshghinejad (2016). Also, 10 students divided to high and low achievement were interviewed to provide in-depth investigation and to seek reliable results. The findings revealed that the EFL teachers believed in and used motivational strategies in their classrooms. In addition, there was a statistically significant correlation between what they believe and what they practice. From the data on learners’ attitudes, results reflected that the students have positive attitudes toward language learning especially in the emotional aspects. The interviews revealed that high and low achieving students reported positive attitudes to the behavioral and cognitive aspects, while they showed little to the emotional aspects of language learning.
Probabilistic Analysis of the Requirements for an Elliptical Orbit Displacement Goniometric Detection System

Published: December 2020

The article addresses the requirements for a goniometric system intended to detect displacements of the space body orbit, which measures angles at discrete moments of time with a random error. Two statistical hypotheses about the zero and specified nonzero displacement values are considered. The likelihood ratio statistics is obtained, and the information distance for it is determined, which characterizes the discrimination confidence level, and which depends on the measurement device accuracy s and discreteness Dt, and also on the orbit parameters. By specifying the orbits and discrimination confidence level, the accuracy s and discreteness Dt are determined through information discrepancy. The information discrepancy is calculated on a family of orbits unfavorable for the observer, the plane of which touches the orbit of the moving observer, and the touching point is the intersection point of the corresponding trajectories. To refine the information distance, a simple flat approximate motion-measurement model is substantiated, in which the true motion of the observer (outside the space body orbit plane) is replaced, without changing its speed, by motion in the space body orbit plane over the earth's sphere circumference. The justification is corroborated by calculating the errors. The obtained simple model is used for estimating the potential possibility of detecting the specified displacement. Tables and graphs for practically determining the discreteness and accuracy of the system are given. The appendix contains all formulas necessary for carrying out similar calculations. Examples show that from angular measurements it is possible to obtain quite reliable detection for the range of orbit parameters that are of practical interest.
Notas al simbolismo del olivo en la poesía de Rubén Darío
Authors: Estévez Francisco
Published: December 2020

El presente artículo se ocupará de la configuración literaria del olivo a través de su traslado icónico entre culturas, prestando para ello lupa y oído a las referencias al olivar que menudean la obra poética del nicaragüense Rubén Darío, el gran anticipador de toda la poesía en español del profuso siglo XX. Interesa por ello la mirada ectópica que se proyecta desde el hispanismo hacia nuestras costas mediterráneas donde el olivo ha venido significando aquel mito sagrado de la creatividad.

Metafísica y política del amor intelectual a Dios en la Ética de Spinoza
Authors: Menassé Adriana
Published: December 2020

¿Cuál es el más alto propósito al que puede aspirar el ser humano? ¿Qué clase de sociedad sería la más deseable según la visión que nos presenta Spinoza en su Ética? El presente trabajo quiere explorar la noción de “amor intelectual a Dios” tal como se despliega en el capítulo V de su obra magna, con el fin de ponderar la empresa a la que el filósofo dirige sus esfuerzos, las liberaciones que en ella se vislumbran, pero también los sacrificios filosóficos y existenciales que comporta. ¿Es la beatitud el verdadero bien supremo de la Ética? En este trabajo exploramos la posibilidad de que la consideración tolerante de los otros y la disposición a la amistad constituyanel verdadero motor del sistema.
El problema de la actitud como acceso a lo trascendental. Fenomenología de la actitud natural
Authors: Sánchez Soberano Ramsés Leonardo
Published: December 2020

La problematización del concepto de actitud natural (natürliche Einstellung) como un momento de las múltiples posibilidades para la manifestación del ser es el tema principal de nuestro ensayo. En Die Idee der Phänomenologie (La idea de la fenomenología) Husserl adopta la llamada “vía cartesiana” –una de las vías que permanece en Ideen I de 1913, en el curso Erste Philosophie (Filosofía primera) de 1923/24 y en las Cartesianische Meditationen (Meditaciones cartesianas) de 1929– hacia el cumplimiento de una primera reducción del ego puro, no psicológico, donde el ego es reconducido a una identificación absoluta con el flujo temporal de sus vivencias. Sin embargo, aunque el problema de la constitución de la actitud natural no es temática para Husserl sino hasta mediados de los 20’s y 30’s, con la introducción del problema de la “Weltanschauung” (cosmovisión) en tanto que modo de donación originaria del mundo natural, donde es constituido el hombre en actitud natural, en este trabajo sostenemos que es posible la inclusión de su sentido en el análisis fenomenológico de la trascendencia. Su hilo conductor inicial será la primera lección de Die Idee der Phänomenologie para más tarde dar paso a algunas reflexiones posteriores que pertenecen al mismo género de problemas. Con ello se elucidará la relevancia de la actitud natural como una categoría ontológica de la intencionalidad, en tanto que ofrecimiento primero de lo que será fenomenológicamente constituido a partir de la reducción, y al mismo tiempo, como un testimonio de los problemas acerca de la temporalidad y de la posibilidad de comenzar a filosofar.
Bernard Lassus: una práctica “des-medida” para el paisaje
Authors: Arbesú Verduzco Luis Ignacio
Published: December 2020

Este artículo no se propone describir el recorrido teórico y práctico de Bernard Lassus, sino de replantear su origen. Ubicado en el lugar de lo “des-medido”, de esa cualidad propia del espacio del paisaje de mostrarse más allá de la superficie real, se presenta como una exposición de experiencias y de conceptos que forman una obra abierta que muestra la trayectoria de este singular paisajista. Este texto recuerda que el paisaje escapa a cualquier definición: formado por la interacción de los elementos que lo integran, el paisaje o, mejor aún, “un” paisaje se convierte en la hipótesis que la mirada pone sobre su entorno. Es así que, partiendo de la experiencia fundamental de la luz, del color y de la observación de las cosas, es decir del ejercicio de la percepción y de la imaginación, Bernard Lassus ha desarrollado magistralmente los conceptos de la trama, el “belvedere” y la mínima intervención. Así, a partir de estos aspectos, experiencia y conceptos, la propuesta se centra en que, fecundados por las nuevas experiencias visuales y táctiles, enriquecidos por el reencuentro de un tipo de paisajismo vernáculo y de sus actores –los habitantes paisajistas–, los conceptos empiezan a evolucionar conduciendo a Bernard Lassus a experimentar su concepción personal del proyecto del paisaje, la estética y el carácter eminentemente ético que ahí reencuentra. Este artículo concluye entonces en lo que debería ser una política pública del paisaje para poder ser auténticamente democrático.
"Retour à la philosophie". La sociología como mediación metafísica en la obra de J. Freund
Authors: Valderrama Abenza Juan C.
Published: December 2020

Conocido sociólogo, escritor extraordinariamente prolífico en el ámbito de la teoría y el análisis político, la polemología, la historia, epistemología y metodología de las ciencias sociales, Julien Freund (1921-1993) fue, sin embargo, como dedicación fundamental, filósofo. No obstante su filosofía apenas ha recibido atención por parte de los especialistas. Pretendemos mostrar en este artículo la relevancia de esta aproximación filosófica como clave de lectura del conjunto de la obra del autor francés, y de qué manera él mismo concibió su atención a los problemas específicos de las ciencias sociales como una mediación a un marco más amplio de comprensión de problemas siempre presentes en la existencia humana; esto es, como una mediación particular hacia la metafísica.

Definición de un modelo pedagógico en el ámbito jurídico a través de la integración de tres formas de aprendizaje-servicio en torno a la simulación de juicios
Authors: ÁLVAREZ SÁNCHEZ DE MOVELLÁN PEDRO , SANJURJO RÍOS EVA ISABEL , FERNÁNDEZ CABALLERO GRACIA
Published: December 2020

Desde hace unos cuantos años, el GID “Aula Judicial de la ULE” viene trabajando con el desarrollo e innovación de las prácticas de las asignaturas de Derecho procesal, siendo siempre la simulación de juicios su actividad “estrella”. Confortados por su buena acogida entre los alumnos participantes, así como por los excelentes resultados académicos arrojados, en los últimos tres cursos, hemos “rediseñado” la simulación para reconducirla hacía el fascinante mundo del “aprendizaje-servicio”. Y la clave para lograrlo ha sido la implementación de tres fórmulas diferentes, pero perfectamente compatibles entre sí (ApS con personas mayores; ApS entre alumnos; y ApS extrauniversitaria), que en el presente artículo se describen pormenorizadamente. Y todo ello, sin desdeñar hacer una breve reseña sobre la manera en la que nos hemos visto obligados a alterar el modelo pedagógico propuesto, para así adecuarlo a la modalidad de enseñanza no presencial impuesta durante el tiempo de duración de la declaración del Estado de Alarma en nuestro país.
Fungus ball of the maxillary sinus: clinical and diagnostic characteristics
Authors: Gariuc Lucia
Published: December 2020

Fungus ball of the maxillary sinus (FBMS) is the most common form of chronic fungal rhinosinusitis in adults. It is a condition of old age, usually with unilateral involvement, and with female preponderance. It is especially described in immunocompetent individuals and is characterized by a slow and benign evolution. Although the etiology, pathogenesis and natural history of fungal rhino-sinusitis have been studied extensively, they are far from being fully understood. The clinical presentation and endoscopic findings in patients with fungus ball of the maxillary sinus are nonspecific, often identical to those of chronic bacterial rhinosinusitis and the cultures are often negative. Imaging evaluation by CT scan suggests, by characteristic signs, a correct diagnosis, which is then correlated with the histological identification of fungal hyphae. Microbiological, histopathological and mycological examinations of nasal secretion established with certainty a variety of bacteria (70%) and fungi (61.7%) in a group of 60 patients with FBMS included in a three-year study. The most commonly detected bacterial floras were Staphylococcus aureus, Citrobacter Koseri, Haemophilus influenzae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Moraxella catarrhalis and Klebsiella oxytoca. On culture media, the most common fungal agents were Aspergillus fumigatus and Aspergillus flavus.
Administration of anaesthesia during drug-induced sleep endoscopy: implementation of a computer system to assist the decision on how to administer analgosedation
Authors: Dumitrescu Nicoleta , Sarafoleanu Codrut , Cobzeanu Bogdan Mihail
Published: December 2020

BACKGROUND. Starting from the European and American guidelines regarding sedation during gastrointestinal investigations and continuing with the American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) recommendations, we have developed a software that helps the ENT specialist to decide whether the patient can undergo a moderate sedation in the operating room, or in the outpatient office, during the drug-induced sleep endoscopy.

MATERIAL AND METHODS. The application is written in C#, using the. NET Framework, and is available for the Windows operating system. The application has a very simple and user-friendly interface, and a bare-bones implementation, focusing strictly on the decision-making process.

RESULTS. The application involves the information obtained from patient history, clinical examination and polysomnography. After filling all the patient’s data, it will show the result that can be one of the following: ”treatment can be ambulatory”, “treatment should be done in the hospital” or “treatment is not recommended”.

CONCLUSION. The decision-making software application may substitute the evaluation of the anaesthesiologist during drug-induced sleep endoscopy in certain conditions.
Role of hydrodissection in septoplasty: a modern outlook
Authors: Thejas Saai Ram , Ganganamoni Rajamohan
Published: December 2020

BACKGROUND.Septoplasty is an age-old surgery performed mainly for a deviated nasal septum. Various methods have been described and the surgery is left to the choice of the surgeon. Traditional septoplasty has taken a back seat in the modern era because of various complications. Newer techniques are being practiced owing to better outcomes. Hydrodissection for septal flap elevation has been both criticized and appreciated because of multiple reasons. In this study, we have used this technique in practice and evaluated its outcome.

MATERIAL AND METHODS.184 patients with Deviated Nasal Septum (DNS) were evaluated. 82 in Group 1 underwent conventional septoplasty with Freer’s elevator and 102 in Group 2 underwent septoplasty with hydrodissection using Normal Saline (NS). Time taken to perform flap elevation, status of the mucoperichondrial flap intra-operatively and scoring of adhesions 4 weeks postoperatively were the parameters of study.

RESULTS.19 out of 82 cases had tears in the mucoperichondrium in Group 1, amounting to 23.17%. 11 patients out of 102 had tears in Group 2, amounting to 10.78%. The average time taken to perform the flap elevation was 11 minutes in Group 1 and 5 minutes in Group 2. Average score in crusting/adhesions was 0.66 in Group 1 and 0.53 in Group 2, out of a possible 4.

CONCLUSION.Hydrodissection in septoplasty for the elevation of the mucoperichondrium and mucoperiosteum is a useful step in surgery provided that it is performed using Normal Saline. It is easy to perform, inexpensive and completely safe to perform without any serious complications.

Authors: Duțu Raluca , Butucescu Andreea
Published: December 2020

The results of previous studies have consistently supported the relationship between transformational leadership style and work engagement, yet the focus is now on the explanatory mechanisms. This study aims to investigate whether psychological empowerment could be a potential mediator of the relationship between the two constructs. Featuring new knowledge reported in the literature, a non-experimental, cross-sectional study based on a sampleof 174 participants from different industries was conducted. The results of the statistical analysis showed that transformational leadership style is a significant predictor of engagement.Moreover, psychological empowerment partly mediated the relationship between transformational leadership and employees’ work engagement. These findings reiterate both the importance and the efficiency of the transformational leader in relation to the positive outcomes of the subordinates.Also, it highlights a potential motivational process that underpins these results.

Maize is cultivated under a broad range of soil conditions and environments. Maize is slightly vulnerable to salt stress and therefore it is seriously affected by soil salinity all over the world. Recognizing the responses of maize to salt stress and making a good strategy to overcome this problem could aid to develop solutions in saline areas to improve maize productivity. We investigated in this research the impacts, tolerance and salt stress management in corn. Many endophytic fungi can produce the Indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) is known for their role in plant growth and development both with and without salt stress conditions. The current study was focused on the production of IAA by endophytic fungi (Aspergillus niger) and maize seeds germination and promotion of seedling growth and vigor. In order to evaluate the defense response of maize plant, in relation to A. niger, an experiment was designed with three replications of treatments (control, salt stressed, salt stressed inoculated with A. niger, and only A. niger inoculated plants. It was determined that A. niger has the ability to produce the IAA in NaCl and KCl stress peaking 53 μg/ml and was not significantly by alternating the nitrogen and carbon sources in the nutrient broth but increasing the tryptophan concentration raised its production level. High concentration stress of sodium chloride and potassium chloride decrease maize plant seeds germination percentage, shoot and root length also affected the fresh and dry weight of maize. A. niger improves salt resistance in maize and also increased the germination percentage up to 30%, also improved the chlorophyll level and it was proved an effective approach for improving maize germination and growth under salt stress.

Published: December 2020

The subject of the research is the method of splitting a disassembled code into logical blocks in automatic mode, searching for software vulnerabilities without using source code (using a binary file or its equivalent, obtained by reverse engineering).The object of the research is the existing code analyzers and features of their functionality.The aim of the study is to consider the possibility of splitting a disassembled code into logical blocks in automatic mode and some of the possible difficulties associated with this.Formulation of the problem. The complexity of analyzing large software products at the level of machine code necessitates the automation of this process. The research methodology is based on a combination of theoretical and empirical approaches using the methods of static and dynamic analysis, comparison, generalization, algorithmization, modeling, synthesis. Key findings. Splitting the code into blocks by sequential in line-by-line analysis of machine code in some cases can lead to misinterpretation. In addition, the analysis of the code according to the conclusions of the functions also does not guarantee the correctness of the determination of the boundaries of the functions. However, in general, the matrix method can be applied to analyze the dependencies of functions on the blocks of code thus selected.The scientific novelty is connected with the determination of promising vectors for the study of software code for vulnerability, the rationale for the approach (building the transition matrix from integer values), which may be the initial stage of preparation for the automated analysis of the disassembled code.

Published: December 2020

Objetivo: Descrever o impacto neurobiológico, cognitivo e psicopatológico da atividade física nos indivíduos com esquizofrenia. Revisão Bibliográfica: A evolução da esquizofrenia está relacionada às alterações neuropatológicas do sistema nervoso central, tanto em relação à estrutura, quanto em relação ao seu funcionamento. As alterações corticais refletem os aspectos clínicos da doença, como o comprometimento cognitivo, os sintomas positivos e negativos. A atividade física regular exerce um efeito neuroprotetor e neurogênico no cérebro, que parece ser capaz de retardar a neurodegeneração característica da doença com potencial para melhoria dos sintomas psicopatológicos e do desempenho cognitivo desses pacientes. Considerações Finais: Atividade física se mostrou benéfica em relação aos efeitos neurobiológicos, cognitivos e no controle de sintomas negativos. Todavia, não existem evidências da melhora do funcionamento psicossocial através da atividade física. Dessa forma há a necessidade de estudos com amostras maiores, envolvendo indivíduos em estágios iniciais ou amostras pré-clínicas, para avaliar de forma fidedigna o impacto da atividade física sobre o desempenho cognitivo e do funcionamento psicossocial.
Pedicular lumbosacral spine fusion for adult/adolescent lumbar developmental high-grade spondylolisthesis
Authors: Elnokaly Mohamed Atef , Adawi Mohammed M. , Nabeel Ahmed M.
Published: December 2020

Background:

Few series report on the management of high-grade spondylolisthesis (HGS) in adolescents and young adults. This review highlights a series of six consecutive cases with developmental (dysplastic) HGS successfully managed with L3 or L4 to S1 transpedicular screw placement, rather than in situ/noninstrumented lumbosacral fusion.

Methods:

The six patients with HGS, according to the Meyerding Grading, presented with low back pain and bilateral sciatica (2016–2020). Patients averaged 19.8 years of age and underwent posterior transpedicular L3 or L4-S1 screw fusions. They were all monitored for at least 6 postoperative months.

Results:

None of the six patients developed any major perioperative/postoperative complications; only one patient had severe postoperative back pain that slowly improved over 3 months. All the patients were clinically improved postoperatively, uniformly demonstrated fusion on postoperative CT studies, and considered the operation worthwhile.

Conclusion:

Posterior transpedicular screw fixation of the lumbosacral spine is an efficient and safe technique for the treatment of L3 or L4 to L5-S1 HGS. It is a suitable instrumented technique for managing adult/adolescent HGS and offers an alternative to the more typically performed in situ/noninstrumented L4-S1 procedures.

Published: December 2020

Background:

Spontaneous intracranial hypotension (SIH) is a rare condition that can be very debilitating. SIH is well understood to be due to a CSF leak, however, identifying the source of the leak is still a challenge. We are presenting a case of Type 4 CSF leak and reviewing the related literature.

Case Description:

A 46-year-old female presenting with intractable orthostatic headaches was diagnosed with SIH. She was unable to mobilize due to the severity of her symptoms. MRI scans of the brain and spine did not identify a source of the leak. After failing conservative therapy and multiple epidural blood patches, the patient underwent surgery which resulted in significant improvement in symptoms.

Conclusion:

This study has shown that surgical intervention improves symptoms in patients who do not have an identifiable source of CSF leak. Further studies need to be done to fully understand the role of surgery in Type 4 CSF leaks.

Published: December 2020

Background:

Severe ankylosing spondylitis (AS) affects the entire spine, increasing the risk of vertebral fractures. There are several fusion procedures used (e.g., anterior, posterior, or combined 360° procedures) to stabilize these fractures.

Case Description:

A 45-year-old male with a 33-year diagnosis of AS presented with a progressive quadriparesis of 6 months’ duration. Previously, he had surgery on both hips. The medical report documented degenerative spondylolisthesis at the C5-C6 level along with syndesmophytes a herniated disc and stenosis. Following a circumferential decompression/fusion without complications, the patient’s symptoms resolved.

Conclusion:

For patients presenting with cervical fractures and AS, circumferential surgical decompression/ fusion may result in good outcomes.

Opuntia ficus-indica is a cactus species that has a large potential in several applications. Despite its enormous potential, the production process is still a concern. The harvest process is still mostly manual and implies a dangerous exposure of the human being not only to harsh environmental conditions such as high temperatures but also to the big and resistant spines of the Opuntia ficus-indica. To fulfill the lack of suitable protection equipment for this specific activity, emerged a project with the aim of producing an innovative clothing system composed by textile structures that can act as a barrier to spines and glochids without compromising breathability and presenting a suitable fitting, ergonomics and freedom of movements. This paper will focus on the development of a multilayer clothing system in which the outer layer provide protection against perforation and the inner layer acts like a second skin providing thermal comfort and freedom of movement, so the producers can withstand high temperatures. Concerning the inner layer, several textile structures were developed to analyze the impact on breathability, moisture management and thermal regulation. For the outer layer more than 20 fabrics were developed and submitted to laboratory tests to study their perforation and tearing resistance (according to EN 388).Afterward two structures were selected to proceed and new finishing’s were developed to prevent the adhesion of the glochids to the textile substrate and simultaneously to give water repellency. Results achieved for the clothing solution from laboratory and field tests with end-users, will be presented.

Kota Surakarta memiliki 283 Ha Ruang Terbuka Hijau (RTH) Publik yang terdiri dari 637 unit RTH. Salah satu fungsi ekologis RTH Publik adalah sebagai resapan air. Fenomea yang terjadi saat ini seringkali terjadi genangan pada berbagai jenis RTH publik pada saat hujan turun. Kondisi tersebut mengganggu aktivitas yang terjadi di dalamnya karena selain memiliki fungsi ekologis, ruang terbuka hijau juga memiliki fungsi sosial, ekonomi, dan estetika. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui tingkat kemampuan ruang terbuka hijau publik di Surakarta dalam mereduksi genangan air. Penelitian ini dilakukan menggunakan metode kuantitatif dengan teknik analisis skoring dan overlay. Analisis dilakukan dengan memberi skor pada 7 variabel yaitu karakteristik kawasan dan tutupan lahan, jenis vegetasi, tekstur tanah, jenis tanah, kelerengan, curah hujan, dan teknologi resapan dengan bobot 1 pada masing-masing variabel. Hasil skoring diklasifikasikan menjadi 3 klasifikasi dengan tingkat kemampuan tinggi, tingkat kemampuan sedang, dan tingkat kemampuan rendah. Untuk mengetahui hasilnya secara spasial, dilakukan dengan overlay melalui software ArcGIS. Dari hasil analisis didapatkan 20 unit RTH Publik memiliki tingkat kemampuan tinggi, 614 unit RTH Publik memiliki tingkat kemampuan sedang, dan 3 unit RTH Publik memiliki tingkat kemampuan rendah.Tingkat kemampuan Ruang Terbuka Hijau (RTH) Publik tersebut tersebar secara merata di 5 Kecamatan di Surakarta. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa tingkat kemampuan ruang terbuka hijau publik di Surakarta dalam mereduksi genangan air sebesar 171.531 m3 / Tahun atau sebesar 67.34% dari kapasitas maksimumnya sehingga masih perlu ditingkatkan.

Indian agriculture is a complex enterprise involving millions of small and marginal farmers. Agriculture in India is the most important sector for food security and socio-economic development. Agriculture accounted for about 18 per cent of the GDP and employed about 50% of the country’s population. As agriculture has become more complex, farmers’ access to reliable, timely, and relevant information has become increasingly important. Farmers require access to more varied, multisource and context-specific information, related not only to best practices and technologies for crop production and weather, but also to information about post-harvest aspects, including processing, marketing, storage, and handling. An effective agricultural knowledge management system with effective Information Technologycan trigger continuous innovations in overall development of agriculture. Information Technology can revolutionize Indian farming sector and can benefit all farmers, including small land holders, marginalized and poor farmers.This article attempts to express the current status ofthe infrastructure with respect to the use of information technology in agriculture and study the importance of knowledge management and information technology in agricultural infrastructure on agriculturesupply chain.
