Social Complexity of Performing Arts: Quantifying Gender Inequalities and Career Success in Ballet Through Network Science.
Authors:   ,   Universidad del Desarrollo, Herrera Guzmán Yessica
Published: February 2024

This thesis explores the application of complex systems research to understand the dynamics of the art world, considering art as a complex system and investigating its various components through data-driven methodologies. By studying art as a complex system, we contribute to a systematic understanding of human development and behavior in creative domains. The social network plays a crucial role in the cultural evolution of art, shaping our cultural identity and collective memory. Analyzing network characteristics provides insights into how individual decisions influence collective dynamics and sustain social phenomena. Previous studies have used network models and data analysis to examine the role of network position and connectedness in artistic collaborations, individual success, and the transmission of artistic knowledge. In this thesis, we focus on ballet as a unique art form with a rich historical and social structure. Ballet provides an opportunity to investigate the role of the social network in shaping collective dynamics in performing arts. We present two research articles that examine gender inequalities and the role of social connections on the career success of ballet dancers. The first article investigates the social network structure of ballet creations and its potential impact on gender disparities in leading positions. The second article explores the influence of social connections and prestige on the career trajectories of ballet dancers, using network analysis and centrality metrics to uncover hierarchical stratification within ballet academies. Our research highlights the significance of social dynamics and network effects in understanding complex social phenomena in the art world. It offers insights into gender inequalities and career success in ballet and demonstrates the value of data-centric methodologies in arts research. By generating a unique dataset and applying interdisciplinary approaches, we contribute to the scientific examination of the arts and enhance our understanding of human creativity and cultural heritage. This thesis contributes to the broader goal of fostering diversity, equity, and inclusion within the arts by shedding light on social structures and suggesting potential avenues for change. Lastly, this work underscores the importance of interdisciplinary research in enriching our understanding of human development and behavior in creative domains.

This study evaluated the work-life balance, motivation, job satisfaction, and commitment levels of high school teachers in a city in Laguna, Philippines during the academic year 2022-2023. It narrowed the gap by testing if work-life balance, motivation, and job satisfaction predict job commitment level and if demographic profiles have moderation effect to the relationship between the predictors and outcome variable. Utilizing descriptive-correlational design, 262 teachers were surveyed through multi-stage sampling. Adapted questionnaires were utilized, content validated by experts, and verified through reliability testing. Mean, Standard Deviation, Spearman Rho, Ordinal Regression, and Moderated Regression were employed for data analysis. Results revealed that the teachers’ level of work-life balance, job satisfaction, and job commitment were high, while motivation was very high. Work-life balance had negative very weak correlation with job commitment, while job satisfaction had positive moderately strong correlation with job commitment. Motivation did not show any significant association with job commitment. Only job satisfaction had a significant effect on job commitment, whereas work-life balance and drive did not have significant effect. Age, years of teaching, and position had moderation effect, while sex had no moderation effect, on the link between work-life balance and job commitment, and between job satisfaction and teachers’ job commitment. Further, years of teaching years and position had moderation effect, while sex and age had no moderation effect, on the relationship between motivation and their job commitment.

Authors: Tang Linhui
Published: February 2024

At present, the domestic housing price is rising, and the housing problem is gradually exposed, especially for the middle and low income groups, which is difficult to solve the housing problem. It has affected the process of urbanization and has become a problem that the domestic government has to solve. This paper needs to study how to solve the existing contradictions under the current domestic housing system and can put forward plans for the future development of the housing market. Since the 1950s, in order to achieve the goal of "home ownership", Hong Kong has explored and gradually formed a public housing policy system of "leasing first and selling only second". Many problems have also been exposed in the process of achieving results. This paper sorts out the three stages and regulation policies of the Hong Kong government on the property market, analyzes the gains and losses of the Hong Kong government on the housing market in recent years, summarizes the success and shortcomings of the Hong Kong public housing policy, and provides inspiration and reference for the formulation of public housing policies in mainland cities.

Authors: Liu Xiaolin , Qi Yuyang
Published: February 2024

For the problem of ordering and transportation of raw materials in production enterprises, a comprehensive score of supplier supply characteristics is established based on the entropy value method, and a mathematical model reflecting the importance of guaranteeing the production of enterprises is established. Firstly, based on the raw material suppliers' supply data, we get the better 60 suppliers according to the total supply; secondly, secondly, based on the supply and ordering data, we excavate the indexes to measure the supply characteristics of each supplier, and carry out the Pearson correlation analysis, and get the four indexes which are weakly correlated with the type of materials supplied by the suppliers, order fulfillment, stability of supply, and enterprise purchasing. Finally, the entropy value method is used to determine the weight of each indicator, to construct the indicator system reflecting the importance of safeguarding the production of the enterprise, to obtain the comprehensive score of the supply characteristics of the 60 suppliers after screening, and to determine the top 50 suppliers such as S361, S218, etc. as the most important suppliers according to the descending order of the score.
Research on How Convergent Digital Media has Impacted the Social Space of Contemporary Cities
Authors: Di Shukai
Published: February 2024

The integration of digital media has an important impact on the economic development, cultural development and spatial use of cities. This paper explains this idea from two main perspectives. The first is media architecture. The integration of media and architecture, supported by new technologies, is an indispensable step in modern urban planning. Media architecture can effectively increase the public's sense of participation and cultural identity. However, at the same time, too many media buildings can also bring huge information waste. Secondly, I will use the case of the Public Comment software to rethink what urban communication is. The interactive nature of digital media can both facilitate and hinder urban communication. How to grasp this scale is a question that needs to be addressed in public communication.
Relationship Between Stress and Emotional Eating
Authors: Hong Yining
Published: February 2024

In contemporary society, stress is a ubiquitous experience, with well-documented effects on health and well-being. Stress can significantly impact eating habits, leading to changes such as overeating, undereating, or choosing unhealthy foods. Nonetheless, the nexus between stress and eating habits remains less elucidated. The aim of this paper is to explore the intricate relationship between stress and eating habits, delving into the psychological mechanisms that underpin this connection. Recent research highlights that stress can wield a significant impact on eating habits, leading to shifts in food preferences, heightened consumption of calorie-rich foods, and an increased susceptibility to obesity and related health issues. Furthermore, studies suggest that stress-induced alterations in eating behavior may be orchestrated by a complex interplay of psychological factors, including emotional regulation, reward processing, and cognitive control. This paper synthesizes the latest research on the relationship between stress and eating habits, with a particular focus on the underlying mechanisms.

Notably, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (CoD: MW) was the first series to exhibit the characteristics and iconography of a modern war film. This study examines the narrative themes and structural components of the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare series since 9/11. The interaction of the 'dangerous frontier' has not been directly discussed in Call of Duty narratives, as a result of the combination of Bush's defense policy, economic globalization, and neoliberalism in the post-9/11 era. The study revealed that the game design and narrative of Call of Duty Modern Warfare relies on a dichotomy of "dangerous borders," where audiovisual technology, storytelling, and cultural symbols are employed to starkly distinguish between advanced attributes within the borders and barbaric mapping outside of them. The game also disseminates values of just war which are based on the American Exceptionalism Theory. Meanwhile, recent research has revealed a stronger correlation between narrative changes within the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare franchise over the past five years and recruitment advertising with war entertainment, and that this dynamic has reduced the impact of narrative styles within the media in the post-9/11 era.

Background: There have been cases of acute pancreatitis brought on by steroids, but identifying it is challenging and necessitates careful monitoring. However, according to new research, 3–5% of all cases of illness may be caused by drug-induced acute pancreatitis, making it the third most common cause. Objective: Evaluation of the effect of hydrocortisone injections on pancreatic structure immunohistochemically using BAX and eNOS markers. Methods: White New Zealand female rabbits weighing between 1.2 and 1.5 kg were used, and they were given free access to food. The rabbits were split into six groups, with five animals in each group receiving intramuscular hydrocortisone injections for 14 and 21 days, respectively, at a dose of 5 mg and 20 mg/kg for short and long durations, and two control groups. Results: There was an increase in weight in both long-duration groups (GL1 and GL2) after week 2 of injection when compared to both control and short-duration groups. There was a highly statistical difference in the expression of BAX in both short- and long-duration groups compared to the control group, and there was also a decrease in the expression of BAX when duration increased. Similarly, there was a highly statistical difference in the expression of eNOS in both the GS and GL groups when compared to the control group. Conclusions: The pancreas can be injured by high and low doses of hydrocortisone if used for more than 2 weeks.

In China, the absence of a phonics instructional guide hinders pre-service EFL teachers’ preparation for phonics instruction. To bridge the gap, the purpose of this article is to lay the theoretical groundwork for developing a phonics instructional guide for Chinese pre-service EFL teachers and then to produce a research methodology for this instructional guide. The Bottom-up Theory of Reading Process; the S-R Theory with Reinforcement, particularly Instrumental Conditioning; and the Trial-and-Error Theory of Learning all have pedagogical implications for implementing explicit and systematic phonics instruction for EFL beginners in China. Additionally, in conjunction with the Andragogy Theory of Adult Learning, these theories provide a theoretical foundation for instructional design. Following the ADDIE sequential framework, a multi-phase mixed methods experimental design was used to collect data from 254 representative samples chosen through a stratified random sampling technique. The findings indicate that within the theoretical framework and with the incorporation of specific design frameworks into the ADDIE sequential framework, the instructional guide was successful, although some refinement is still needed. Furthermore, the findings suggest that additional research could be conducted on advanced evaluation levels.

A Review: Microwave Assisted Extraction
Authors:   Department of Biotechnology, R V College of Engineering, Bengaluru, India, B Dr Trilokchandran
Published: February 2024

Microwave-assisted extraction (MAE) technique involves heating solvents in contact with a sample using microwave energy in order to separate analytes from the sample matrix into the solvent. The primary benefit of MAE is its intrinsic capacity to quickly heat the sample solvent mixture. The ability of microwave radiation to penetrate and mix with a substrate allows for accurate and regulated heating. As a result, the electromagnetic energy can be specifically engineered to be transported by the microwave process to the desired location of the compounds in the substrate. The utilisation of short processing periods and energy- saving variables results in lower manufacturing costs, better product yields and consistency, and higher- quality products as compared to alternative extraction procedures. This review summarizes the basic principle involved in the MAE and its instrumentation. It also gives an overview of some of the applications of the MAE.

This study aims to explore and understand the process of developing students' self esteem and self-direction in growth-oriented alternative schools. The Strauss and
Corbin grounded theory method was applied in this study. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with 33 middle and high school students attending alternative growth schools. Categorization, processes, and situation analyses were performed. A total of 565 concepts, 62 subcategories, and 16 categories were derived through the categorization analysis. As a result of structural analysis, a paradigm model of “causal conditions”, “contextual conditions”, “central phenomenon”, “mediating conditions”, “strategy”, and “result” was derived. The central phenomenon was “'crisis of learning and life”. “Students going through this live in a growth community.” Through process analysis, “crisis and confusion phase”, “conflict and choice phase”, “exploration and understanding phase”, “reflection and practice phase”, and “change and growth phase” were derived. Through situational analysis, the “growth community system”, “growth type alternative curricula”, and “educational meetings at growth type alternative schools” were identified as factors influencing the growth of students' self-esteem and self-direction. This study has meaningful implications at the student, family, school, and policy levels for increasing self-esteem and self-direction in growth-oriented alternative schools for children experiencing learning and life crises.

A Study on the Current Status, Issues, and Improvement of Measures of Protecting School Violence Victims and Leading Measures for Perpetrators
Authors:   Education Research Institute, Lim Jae Youn
Published: February 2024

The purpose of this study was to examine the current status and issues of protecting school violence victims, leading measures for perpetrators to prevent school violence recurrence and propose improvement measures. For this purpose, an analysis was conducted based on data related to current legal regulations, the status of the deliberation committee's measures to protect victims and lead perpetrators, and the awareness of the protection and guidance of victims and perpetrators. The results pointed out the weakness of protection measures for student victims, the lack of protection measures for many student victims by the committee, and the fact that protection measures are focused on counseling areas. However, there are not enough counseling institutions for student victims, and the counseling agency does not report or recognize that the student victims received official help. Accordingly, improvement proposals were made, such as legal guarantees for the treatment and recovery of victim students, additional protection measures by the committee, strict intervention in cases of casual and emotional violence, and assistance with school adaptation after the protection measures. More issues were pointed out, such as the regulations for leading measures for perpetrator students, the problems of committee measures with written apologies and special education, and the problem of perpetrators themselves recognizing that they had not received any action. To address these
issues, improvement measures have been proposed, including supplementing regulations regarding immediate separation from victim students, emergency measures, written apology measures, improvements in special education, and emphasizing the need for apology and responsibility from perpetrators.
