Prescrição e decadência nas ações anulatórias e reparatórias envolvendo o crédito consignado
Authors: Barberato Celso , Kobal Fregati Eduardo , Siqueira Ruzene Eduardo
Published: December 2024

O crédito consignado, com suas baixas taxas de juros e facilidade de contratação, vem se tornando cada vez mais popular no Brasil. No entanto, essa modalidade de crédito também tem sido alvo de um número crescente de litígios.  O artigo investiga a viabilidade das alegações de decadência e prescrição em ações judiciais em que os autores alegam ter contratado cartão de crédito consignado por engano, quando na verdade pretendiam contratar um empréstimo consignado. Assim, esta obra tem como objetivo analisar a fiabilidade, a viabilidade jurídica e a possibilidade de êxito das alegações de decadência e prescrição nesses casos, averiguar a natureza jurídica dos direitos subjetivos envolvidos, classificar as ações de cognição segundo o tipo de tutela jurisdicional demandada e examinar os institutos jurídicos da prescrição e da decadência. O estudo utilizou o método hipotético-dedutivo de Karl R. Popper, com pesquisa teórica, bibliográfica e documental. O estudo é relevante porque o reconhecimento da decadência ou prescrição pode extinguir os processos com resolução do mérito, contribuindo para a duração razoável do processo, segurança jurídica e isonomia.
AZERBAYCAN TÜRKÇESİ AĞIZLARI ÜZERİNE ETNOLİNGUİSTİK ÇALIŞMALAR
Authors: Gurbanlı İlaha
Published: December 2024

Azerbaycan Türkçesinin ağızları Azerbaycan dil biliminde çeşitli yönleriyle araştırılmış, teorik ve uygulamalı diyalektoloji eserleri yazılmıştır. Bu makalede ağızların etnolinguistik analizi, ilk kez bu kadar geniş ölçekte bilimsel olarak araştırılmaktadır. Karşılaştırmalı etnolinguistik, bağımsız bir bilimsel alan olarak, dil ve kültürü, dil dışı ve dil içi faktörlerin yanı sıra dil ve toplum gelişimi yasalarını dikkate alarak, bağlantı ve uzlaşma biçiminde tarihsel-karşılaştırmalı bir açıdan inceler. Etnolinguistik inceleme, tarihsel-karşılaştırmalı, tipolojik-karşılaştırmalı, betimleyici, dilsel-kültürel yöntemleri karmaşık bir şekilde dikkate alan poliparadigmatik analizi içerir. Elbette etnolinguistik araştırma yapılırken o dilin veya lehçenin yayıldığı alan, etnik köken, tarihsel gerçekler, sosyal faktörler, onu çevreleyen doğa vb. değerlendirilebilir. Bir bilim alanı olarak etnodilbilimin, etnoloji ve dilbilim ile doğrudan bağlantılı olarak incelendiğine dikkat edilmelidir. Her şeyden önce etnolinguistik, etnos nedir ve onun kültürü ve kültürlerinin dil üzerinde ne kadar etkisi vardır gibi sorulara cevap aranmış ve ağızların oluşumunu sağlayan nedenler ele alınmıştır. Etnolinguistik bir bilim olarak Azerbaycan dil biliminde ayrıca incelenmemiştir. Bu çalışmada etnolinguistik metotlardan yararlanılarak, Azerbaycan Türkçesinin ağızlarının sözlüğünde tezahür eden etnik dil özellikleri incelenmiştir. Bu bilim alanının tarihi nispeten gençtir. Bildiğimiz gibi, etnos ve onun dille ilişkisi yirminci yüzyıl zekâsının bir ürünüdür. Dil ve etnik köken arasında gerçekten doğrudan psikolojik bir bağ var mıdır, yoksa gözle görülür bağlar sadece bir tesadüf müdür? Araştırmada tüm Türk lehçeleri göz önünde bulundurularak karşılaştırma yapılmış ve elde edilen sonuçlar ortaya konulmuştur.
TÜRK HALK HİKÂYELERİNDE YANSITICI AYNA SEMBOLÜ: SU
Authors: Yılmaz Polat Leyla
Published: December 2024

Ayna, insanın kendi varlığını görme ihtiyacından dolayı icat edilmiş bir nesnedir. Modern toplumlarda gündelik hayatın bir parçası olan aynanın keşfinden önce insan, parlak taşların, çelik levhaların ve durgun su yüzeylerinin yansıtıcı özelliğini kullanarak ayna ihtiyacını gidermiştir. Suda kendi yansımasını gören insanoğlu, suyu evreni ve ruhu yansıtan bir “ayna” olarak nitelendirmiştir. Zira evren ve insan Tanrı’nın kudretinin ve sıfatlarının yansıdığı birer aynadır. Dolayısıyla insan, aynanın üzerindeki kiri pası temizlediği gibi kalp aynasını da maddi duygulardan arındırdığında bu aynaya, Tanrı’nın kudreti ve güzelliği en net haliyle yansıyabilecektir. Bu bağlamda Türk halk hikâyelerinde, idealize edilmiş ve Tanrı Kut’u ile donatılmış kahramanın, sevgilisinin su yüzeyinde gördüğü aksine âşık olması; kahramanın kalp aynasının temizliğini ve kalbinin ilahî hakikate açıklığını göstermektedir. Zira yatay düzlemde kahramanın su yüzeyinde görüp âşık olduğu sevgilinin sureti olsa da dikey düzlemde Tanrı’nın kudreti ve güzelliğidir. Türk halk hikâyelerinde kahramanların, kötü ve karamsar düşüncelerini dağıtmak için akan bir su kenarına oturup akan suyu seyretmeleri de yine suyun, insanın özüne/ ruhuna tutulan bir ayna vazifesi görmesindendir. Akan suyu seyreden insan, su üzerinde yığılan çöpleri görmesi gibi ruhu üzerinde biriken kötü ve karamsar düşünceleri de fark ederek benliği ile yüzleşebilecektir. Bu yüzleşme sonucu suyun üzerinde biriken çöpü temizler gibi kendi ruhu üzerindeki kötü düşüncelerden arınarak kalp aynasını daha parlak hale getirebilecektir. Su yüzeyine bakıldığında hem suyun derinliği hem de su yüzeyindeki yansıma görülebilir. Dolayısıyla kahraman, sevgilisinin suretini su yüzeyinde ya da aynada gördüğünde aslında kendi iç dünyasının derinliklerini keşfetmektedir. Bu bağlamda Türk halk hikâyelerinde su ve ayna, kahramanın hem iç dünyasını hem de dış dünyayla olan ilişkisini simgelemektedir.
Dampak Belis Terhadap Penundaan Perkawinan Dan Hidup Bersama Tanpa Ikatan Resmi : Perspektif Familaris Consortio
Authors: Dete Maria Erdila , Odi Martalian , Jawa Genoveva , Meo Yohanes Wilson B Lena
Published: December 2024

Penelitian ini mengkaji dampak Belis mahal terhadap penundaan perkawinan dan praktik hidup bersama tanpa ikatan resmi dengan menggunakan perspektif Familiaris Consortio sebagai kerangka analisis. Dalam banyak budaya, Belis dianggap sebagai simbol status dan penghormatan, namun biaya yang tinggi sering kali memaksa pasangan untuk menunda perkawinan atau memilih hidup bersama tanpa ikatan resmi. Situasi ini berpotensi merusak struktur keluarga dan prinsip Gereja Katolik yang menempatkan perkawinan sebagai sakramen fundamental bagi kehidupan keluarga dan masyarakat. Familiaris Consortio menekankan pentingnya pemahaman yang mendalam tentang makna dan nilai perkawinan untuk membangun hubungan yang sah dan berkelanjutan. Penelitian ini juga mengungkapkan perlunya pendekatan pastoral yang lebih inklusif dan solutif dalam menghadapi tantangan budaya dan ekonomi yang memengaruhi institusi perkawinan. Selain itu, studi ini menawarkan wawasan bagi pembuat kebijakan dan komunitas religius untuk mendorong dialog yang lebih aktif antara tradisi budaya dan ajaran keagamaan. Dengan temuan ini, diharapkan dapat dikembangkan upaya untuk mengurangi jumlah pasangan yang hidup bersama tanpa ikatan resmi, sekaligus memperkuat institusi perkawinan sebagai fondasi keluarga dan masyarakat.

Reading Comprehension and Fluency Gaps among public Rural Primary Students: the Case of South Pemba region in Zanzibar
Authors: Saleh Mussa Alawi
Published: December 2024

This study investigates the gaps in reading comprehension and fluency among rural primary students in the South Pemba region of Zanzibar. It examines students' performance in non-word reading and text comprehension, identifying the underlying causes of their difficulties and proposing potential solutions. Utilizing a mixed-methods approach, the research involved cross-sectional quantitative surveys and qualitative observations. Approximately 100 students participated in a Non-Word Reading Test and a Comprehension Test, designed to evaluate their phonemic awareness, decoding skills, and comprehension abilities. Classroom observations provided insights into teaching practices and the learning environment. Statistical analyses were applied to the quantitative data, while thematic analysis was used for the qualitative data. The findings revealed significant deficiencies in reading skills, with poor fluency and comprehension levels among the students. Notably, 69% of learners could decode fewer than 15 non-words, and 92% of attempts were incorrect. The students struggled with reading comprehension, particularly in answering inferential questions, highlighting weaknesses in phonemic awareness and fluency development. The study emphasizes critical literacy deficits and suggests strategies, such as promoting explicit phonemic awareness and enhancing teacher education, to improve literacy outcomes. These insights can guide policymakers and educators in addressing literacy challenges in rural Zanzibar.

Authors: V.Abarna  , P.Manikandan  , D.S.Rajavel
Published: December 2024

The survey was conducted to record the population dynamics of major sucking pests of groundnut such as Aphid, Aphis craccivora, Thrips, Scirtothrips dorsalis and Leafhopper, Empoasca kerri during Rabi, 2019- Summer, 2020 and Kharif, 2020. Incidence of aphids was observed from the 52nd Standard Meteorological Week (SMW) but a considerable population was recorded from the 06th SMW to the 18th SMW. Thrips were high during the 4th SMW to the 18th SMW but the peak incidence of thrips was observed 16th to 18th SMW. The infestation of leafhoppers was observed from the 2nd SMW and the incidence increased and reached a peak during the 8th SMW. A considerable level of incidence was observed from the 6th SMW to the 17th SMW during Rabi, 2019- Summer, 2020. The relationship between the weather factors and major sucking pests during Rabi-Summer and Kharif seasons revealed the positive relationship between aphids and thrips with maximum temperature, minimum temperature and mean temperature and the negative relationship with maximum humidity, minimum humidity, mean humidity and rainfall. Leafhoppers had a non-significant relationship with weather factors but had a significant negative relationship with rainfall.

Published: December 2024

Over the last few years and across the academic landscape in the United States, there has been increasing awareness, understanding, and appreciation of the importance and value of diversity in faculty recruitment, growth, and success (e.g., Lafferty et al., 2023). Expanded viewpoints, approaches, and ways of thinking benefit the education and research missions of institutions and better serve and support local communities, students, and society. Diverse teams have been shown to have better problem-solving skills than less diverse teams (Hong and Page, 2004). Given long-standing structures of power and privilege, efforts to diversify and support university faculty require consideration of equity, inclusion, justice, acceptance, and belonging in requirements and expectations for hiring, promotion, and evaluation of faculty.
Perceptions of Gender-Based and Age-Based Discrimination in The Workplace: A Serial Mediation Model of The Differential Roles of Perceived Mobbing And Demotion on Subsequent Discomfort
Authors: Costarelli Sandro
Published: December 2024

One study tested a serial-mediation model exploring the moderating role of the type of perceived discrimination at work on the causal path linking perceived mobbing (i.e. the perception of being the object of continuous reprimands for errors committed), perceived demotion (i.e. the perception of being assigned to tasks inferior to one's job role), and psychological discomfort related to carrying out daily work. The current work argues that that mobbing will be perceived as the cause of demotion, which will in turn be perceived as a discriminative behaviour actually caused by one's gender and age, which will then increase negative feelings. As expected, findings indicated that the perception of being assigned to tasks inferior to one's job role increased perceived discrimination due to one's sexual gender and age, which in turn exacerbated the psychological discomfort related to carrying out daily work. All of the possible alternative serial-mediation models proved to be statistically non significant.
THE ROLE OF ETHICAL AND TRUSTWORTHY AI TEAMMATES IN ENHANCING TEAM PERFORMANCE: A SYSTEMATIC LITERATURE REVIEW
Authors: Patole Sanket Ramchandra
Published: December 2024

This systematic literature review (SLR) examined the influence of ethical and reliable AI teammates on improving team performance in Human-AI teams (HAITs). The review synthesized 37 peer-reviewed papers to investigate how transparency, explainable AI (XAI), and ethics cultivate trust, an essential component for effective human-AI collaboration. Ethical AI teammates enhance team dynamics by mitigating uncertainty, guaranteeing equity, and fostering transparency in decision-making. Nonetheless, significant challenges exist in trusting AI teammates due to obstacles such as the “black box” nature of AI teammate representing the lack of transparency and trust violations. Trust restoration methods, such as explanations and trusting AI teammates with caution, are crucial for reinstating trust following breaches. The study concluded by highlighting the implications for enhancing team performance through ethical and trustworthy AI teammates, adding to the existing literature on human-AI collaboration.

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by impairments in social communication and interaction, as well as restricted or repetitive behaviors. In addition to the dominant genetic factors, epigenetics is also considered as a causative component, i.e. family diseases, external harmful substances, toxins, drugs, etc. In particular, the model of maternal autoantibody-mediated autism spectrum disorders, which has been around for decades, but is still considered new, considers maternal antibodies that bind to intracellular proteins in the fetal brain and disrupt their activity as a causal factor. Prenatal biomarkers are also the changes in the cytokine spectrum that occur during infectious diseases of the mother, the damaging effect of which is observed due to the cytokine receptors present in the fetal brain tissue, maternal and familial autoimmune diseases, in which statistics shows a risk of burden on the offspring, and the analysis data shows more cases of ASD in similar families as compared to healthy families. It is appropriate to study the described causative factors as prenatal biomarkers. This period is considered to be the most unknown period, full of risk factors for the fetus, since the unprotected and still unformed body of the fetus can undergo epigenetic changes.
Analysis of Genetic Diversity, Correlation, and Phenotypic Path Coefficients in Hybrids of Kenaf (Hibiscus Cannabinus L.) Cultivated for High Fibre Yield
Authors: Al-Mamun Md , Yusop Mohd Rafii , Khan Md Mahmudul Hasan
Published: December 2024

Kenaf is an economically important fiber crop globally for multipurpose industrial uses such as paper making, interior car components and building boards. Correlation and path coefficient analysis help breeders create breeding procedures that maximize yield through selection by assisting in the understanding of trait interactions. To develop selection criteria for high fibre yield, this research examined the direct and indirect effects of yield and yield-related traits among 36 kenaf hybrids. The pooled analysis of variance over two seasons showed highly significant differences among genotypes and genotype-by-season interaction for all traits except for stem top diameter and plant height. The fibre weight substantially correlated with seven traits at both the phenotypic and genotypic levels. Hence, selection based on these traits will effectively increase kenaf fibre yield. The path coefficient analysis revealed the maximum contribution of core diameter to fibre yield followed by fresh stem weight without leaves and pod. The first five principal component analyses (PCA) accounted for 91.8% variation between genotypes based on a correlation matrix of all the quantitative traits. For the development of kenaf varieties with acceptable yield, effective selection can be based on stem base diameter, stem middle diameter, core diameter, nodes number, stick weight, fresh stem weight with leaves and pod, and fresh stem weight without leaves and pod.

Este trabalho contribui para compreender quais são as características das inovações feitas por essas empresas e, pode servir como base para sustentar políticas públicas e privadas de incentivo à inovação em startups.
A construção discursiva do humor em textos de standy-up comedy
Authors: Freitas Ronaldo Adriano de , Siqueira Alberto César Pereira
Published: December 2024

Este artigo tem como objetivo a análise de alguns trechos de stand-up comedy produzidos pelo comediante brasileiro Gui preto, tendo por base com a Análise do Discurso Materialista (Pêcheux/Orlandi). A partir da análise dos trechos em circulação na internet, este trabalho busca compreender a maneira como o discurso racista é evocado para produzir humor em textos de stand-up comedy, bem como os efeitos de sentidos que emergem a partir da reprodução - mesmo inconsciente - desse discurso. A chave de leitura dessa pesquisa é a de que, embora o humor dos textos analisados não tenha o intuito de reproduzir sentidos que sustentam o racismo, utiliza-se do discurso racista para construir novos efeitos de sentido, tornando a denúncia, elemento que compõe o corpo de características dessa modalidade de humor, contraditória uma vez que o comediante, na intenção de desconstruir o racismo, se apropria de estereótipos e expressões socialmente marcadas, reforçando construções de sentido de preconceito, segregação e noções de desigualdade racial.
O Vocabulário da pandemia do novo coronavírus e o ressoar de sentidos pandêmicos em tempos sem pandemia
Authors: Lima Heitor Pereira de , Venturini Maria Cleci
Published: December 2024

Neste artigo, a partir do movimento entre a Análise de Discurso e a História das Ideias Linguísticas, objetivamos pensar no modo como no “depois da pandemia” (Dias, 2021) ressoam sentidos pandêmicos. Ou seja, partindo do Vocabulário da pandemia do novo coronavírus nos importa compreender os sentidos que seguem ressoando e instaurando efeitos em nossas práticas, em nossas tomadas de posição-sujeito, constituindo-se como o “resto” – lacuna, vazio de explicação (Gagnebin, 2008) necessário à compreensão do indizível pela linguagem. Orlandi (2009, p. 9) nos ensina que “aquilo que se diz, uma vez dito, vira coisa no mundo: ganha espessura, faz história”. Nessa orientação, assumimos o verbete “felicidade” para refletir sobre a palavra “felicidade”, enquanto esse dito que vira coisa no mundo e em tempos pandêmicos ganham outros contornos, mobilizam outros sentidos, mas só no pós-pandemia, ressoam sentidos pandêmicos pelo que fica como “resto” constitutivo da língua na história, significado no/pelo discurso e marcado na/pela palavra.
TECHNOLOGY AS A MEDIUM OF ARTISTIC CREATION: THE CASE OF BIOTECHNOLOGY
Authors: Suwara Bogumiła
Published: December 2024

In recent decades, artists have lost interest in the search for new solutions. In the celebration of traditional techné, and in pursuit of means of expression, they have turned to extreme areas of human activity or to the field of science and new technologies. The latest gene-editing technologies open up new challenges for art and force a rethinking of the interpretation of projects, artefacts, performances, and installations by artists focused on biotechnology. This is especially due to the fact that, for the time being, art criticism is in thrall to a posthuman discourse (grounded in theories of postmodernism) that at various levels focuses on the nature– culture opposition, primarily delimiting the biological aspects of humans to the interspecies social relationships of human and non-human beings. Because of this, artists and critics lack appropriate philosophical concepts to develop interpretive frameworks for art that reach into the realm of empirical investigations of human nature. Transhumanist discourse seems to offer a solution of sorts.  Although still evolving and facing ethical critiques, it provides a more appropriate (emulative) framework for some contemporary  artistic activities than the existing posthuman discourse.
THE ROLE OF COMMUNICATION AND ADVOCACY IN RESOLVING CULTURE-BASED CONFLICT: LESSONS FROM EFFORTS TO COMBAT FGM PRACTICES IN KENYA
Authors: Odera Christabel , Nyadera Israel Nyaburi , Ouma Samuel Juma
Published: December 2024

This study examines the role of communication and advocacy in resolving culture-based conflicts in Kenya, focusing on the harmful practice of Female Genital Mutilation (FGM). While existing studies on conflicts in Kenya have focused on inter-group violence, such as class, political and ethnic conflicts, few studies have examined how cultural practices constitute violence, and few have offered recommendations on how to deal with cultural conflicts and violence. Culture-based conflicts in Kenya, particularly those related to harmful cultural practices like Female Genital Mutilation (FGM), have been a persistent challenge. While communication and advocacy are often cited as essential in conflict resolution, their application in resolving culture-driven violence in Kenya and many African countries remains low. This study aims to contribute to the growing literature and debates on cultural violence by (1) examining cultural-based violence in Kenya, (2) assessing how communication and advocacy techniques and strategies can be used in FGM advocacy campaigns in Kenya, (3) evaluating the potential impact of these strategies especially in changing attitudes and behaviors towards FGM. The study will conclude with a set of recommendations that are aimed at reducing cultural violence in Kenya through the use of communication and advocacy.
THE SOCIAL POTENTIAL OF FACT-CHECKING IN VERIFYING INFORMATION ABOUT THE WAR IN UKRAINE - A CASE STUDY
Authors: Urbaś Joanna
Published: December 2024

The emergence of new media has turned the formerly passive recipients of content into active users who, as a part of various initiatives, are willing to establish virtual communities. The aim of the argument is to present the social dimension of fact-checking in social media through the example of the analysis of the profile of the Demagog Association in the first month after the outbreak of the war. The author will attempt to answer questions about the social nature of fact-checking - what topics and values the community in the Demagog profile gathers around, whether fact-checking has social potential and whether the community around fact-checking organizations has the potential to educate and activate the rest of society in social media.
OLENA ZELENSKA’S ENGAGEMENT ON INSTAGRAM DURING THE FIRST YEAR OF THE AGGRESSION OF THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION AS A TOOL OF UKRAINIAN SOFT POWER. CASE STUDY
Authors: Kindziuk Milena
Published: December 2024

This study examines Olena Zelenska’s media engagement during the first year of the war, with her Instagram profile as an example of building Ukrainian soft power. Analysing the thematic categories of Instagram posts used to build Ukrainian soft power, published by the First Lady of Ukraine on Instagram during the first year of Russian Federation’s aggression against Ukraine, i.e., from February 24th, 2022 to February 24th, 2023. Methods: qualitative analysis of content, media discourse analysis method. The contents of Olena Zelenska’s posts on her official Instagram profile during the first year of the war can be considered a tool for building Ukrainian soft power. Zelenska uses it to convey values such as freedom, truth, concern for the children and women caught in the war, but also by showcasing the highlights of the broadly defined Ukrainian culture and showing the state policy in the context of the war, but most importantly, to convey faith in Ukrainian victory. Zelenska uplifted her compatriots, brought them hope, while asking the leaders of other countries for aid. She did not enforce anything or give any orders (i.e., did not use hard power), but rather used encouragement  and emotion, and lead by example, thus enticing others to share her values (soft power). The results of the study show how Instagram can become an important tool for building soft power by engaging important actors on state level.
Between commerce and mission: the case of TRUSO.TV, a local television station
Authors: Kowalska-Rutyna Monika
Published: December 2024

Topics covered by local media will always have their own audience. One of the advantages of local media is the ability to create content specifically formatted for Internet users (e.g., live broadcasts or video content). It can be assumed that both the value and quality of the presented information depend on the journalistic skill level of the local editorial team. The way new media are handled reflects the state of traditional media. Those with an established reputation that has been built over years of fulfilling a social mission do not need to fear new technologies but should instead view them as an addition and a way to build credibility and trust among new viewers.New media allow local stations to engage audiences in local community affairs, providing diverse content (cultural, educational, sports and entertainment programmes) that responds to a wide range of audience interests. This is evident in the case of TRUSO.TV, which produces a variety of content formats. Local television stations require constant funding, typically supported by advertisements from local businesses. However, the current media consumption trends may affect the effectiveness of these advertisements.This article has attempted to demonstrate that a local television station with a long-standing tradition does not need to fear losing its audience. Despite the growing importance of new media, local broadcasters play a crucial role in local communication. It should be noted, however, that the conclusions regarding TRUSO.TV cannot be extrapolated to cable television stations in other cities. Elbląg is where television has existed for 30 years, giving it a brand and recognition among its residents, which may facilitate fulfilling its mission.

The paper delves into the phenomenon of toxic language in online gaming, a significant issue that reflects the broader challenges of online interaction between users. Despite online gaming being fairly new, considering other forms of games, its impact and popularity are constantly growing. As such a powerful activity, it naturally bears consequences – one of them being other players. This issue is widespread and does not pertain to a single region. The author establishes that patterns of such toxic language exist, basing the thesis on conducted research, whose main goal was to determine the grammatical structures and context in which toxicity manifests. By analyzing those patterns, the author establishes a foundation for understanding how toxic language manifests, providing a detailed examination of its linguistic structure. The observation also offers insight into the possible causes of increased toxicity.

Background: Spinal cord injury (SCI) affects all body systems, including physiological sexual responses, and negatively impacts sexual satisfaction and anxiety, leading to depression and damage to interpersonal relationships in couples. Therefore, sexual rehabilitation education by rehabilitation nurses is essential to prevent complications and improve performance. Objectives: This article aims to investigate the effect of sexual rehabilitation education on anxiety and sexual satisfaction among members of the Tehran Spinal Cord Injury Association. Methods: In this semi-experimental study, 100 women referred to the Tehran Spinal Cord Injury Association were randomly assigned to intervention and control groups. Data were collected using a demographic form, Beck's Anxiety Questionnaire, and Larson's Sexual Satisfaction Questionnaire. The data were analyzed using SPSS version 21 software and statistical tests, including chi-square, Fisher's exact test, and independent t-tests. Results: The mean anxiety score in the control group before and after the intervention was 19.66 and 20.68, respectively (P = 0.123), whereas in the intervention group, the mean scores were 20.92 and 18.04, showing a statistically significant reduction (P = 0.045). The mean sexual satisfaction score in the control group was 67.32 and 67.22, respectively (P = 0.912), while in the intervention group, it increased from 67.80 to 70.80, a statistically significant improvement (P = 0.010). Conclusions: The results of this study demonstrated that sexual rehabilitation education reduces anxiety and increases sexual satisfaction in women with spinal cord injuries. Implementing sexual rehabilitation education programs by nurses is an effective strategy to reduce anxiety and enhance the sexual satisfaction of women with spinal cord injuries.
GROWTH AND REPRODUCTIVE ABILITY OF ISOLATED SIBERIAN CEDAR CLONES IN THE OPTIMUM ZONE
Authors: Titov Evgeny
Published: December 2024

The revival of an important economic resource of the country – pine nuts – is hampered by the lack of the necessary amount of raw material for laying industrial high-yielding nut plantations on large areas. They are genotypes-clones of plus trees, which have confirmed high yields during clone test-ing. An effective way to solve an urgent problem is to identify them at an early age in the zone of ecological optimum of Siberian cedar. In the low and middle highlands of the North-Eastern Altai (800-1100 m above sea level), 7-year-old vaccinations revealed the specifics of growth and seed production of 49 clones of plus trees on 12 and 17-yearold rootstocks, reflecting their degree of genetic conditioning. In the zone of ecological optimum of Siberian cedar, the possibility of early detection of high-yielding clone genotypes with mandatory simultaneous testing of clone progeny on rootstocks of different ages is substantiated.

Published: December 2024

Climate change can have a negative impact on forest plantations. The article considers the vulnerability of forests to the climatic risk of an increase in the frequency of outbreaks of mass reproduction of harmful organisms in forests. The vulnerability of forests was calculated using a normalized vulnerability index in the context of the subjects of the Russian Federation. A retrospective assessment was carried out based on statistical data on the areas of foci of harmful organisms and a forecast assessment based on data on changes in the Selyaninov hydrothermal coefficient for the period of the 2050s and 2090s. Cartographic materials on the differentiation of the subjects of the Russian Federation by the level of vulnerability to the considered risk are presented.

Human Grief and Divine Power in Augustine’s In Iohannis euangelium tractatus
Authors: Fogleman Alex ,   Philosophy Documentation Center
Published: December 2024

Augustine scholarship on grief has mostly focused on Confessiones 4 and 9 and De ciuitate dei 14.9, with a focus on how Augustine legitimates Christian expressions of grief. In this essay, I explore the ways in which his account of grief is inflected Christologically, with a primary focus on In Iohannis euangelium tractatus 49, 52, and 60, where Augustine reflects on a set of Johannine texts that speak of Jesus being “troubled”: John 11:33, 12:27, and 13:21. The homiletic context adds to the traditional picture of grief in Augustine scholarship by drawing more attention to issues of Christology. In particular, the Johannine passages afford Augustine the opportunity to highlight the ways in which conceptions of divine power (potestas) shape an interpretation of the difference between Christ’s unique experience of grief in comparison with ours. Christ’s grief, Augustine emphasizes, is only ever voluntary, whereas we experience it involuntarily, and yet it is precisely this difference that prompts Augustine to focus his hearer’s attention on how Christ’s grief serves as the healing of our griefs.
