A lifetime in the workplace: Continuity and change in image management of working women in Minneapolis and St. Paul, Minnesota
Authors: Oberg Caren S. , DeLong Marilyn , Heinemann Barbara
Published: September 2020

Professional women engage with individual and social issues of ageing, appearance and identity throughout their lives. The challenges professional women have faced since the 1970s have changed as to how they view themselves in new and varied contemporary careers and their perceptions of how others view them. Eleven career women in the Twin Cities, MN, were interviewed about how they managed their appearances throughout their careers. Responses were organized into groups built around the women’s early career narratives – 20s–30s, mid-career narratives – 40s–60s, late and post-career narratives – 70s–90s. We found that these women consciously thought about the meaning and impact of work and their work wardrobe as they passed through each career stage, especially in terms of impression and identity management. We learned through the stories they told how the art, practice and meaning around dressing for work changed over time – with both continuity and change in their expressed outcomes.
A reflection on Somatics, its relationship with dance and its development in Brazil
Authors: Silva Grebler Maria Albertina , Pizarro Diego
Published: September 2020

This article introduces reflections on Somatics and its emergence at the turn of the twentieth century among the Body Culture movement in association with modern dance, in opposition to the scientific dualism that separates mind and body. We also reflect upon the blooming of Somatics following the paradigm shift brought about by phenomenology and neurophenomenology. They all produced an extensive scope of research and arrived to the conclusion that the mind is corporealized. Somatics in Brazil gained notoriety from the 1960s on, mainly if we consider the seminal work of Brazilian dancers Klauss and Angel Vianna. Mostly connected to dance, Somatics in Brazil entered private dance schools, dance festivals and later on it penetrated universities, in both undergraduate and postgraduate levels. Initiated by Thomas Hanna in the 1970s, the scholarly new paradigm brought by Somatics broadens the use of the term and allows this movement to be recognized as a field of study. To conclude, we articulate Somatics’ new developments towards the new social and political agendas within contemporary culture.
Somatic ways of approaching a kinesthetic2 mode of attention in dance
Authors: Silveira Juliana Carvalho Franco da
Published: September 2020

In this article, I address ways of nurturing a ‘heightened sense of kinesthesia’ (expression used by Caroline Potter) within the context of contemporary dance. To do that, I articulate existing literature with data collected in a field research, at which time I taught classes that aimed to integrate the study of experiential anatomy, from a Body-Mind Centering® perspective, with dance practices. The nuanced attention to the sense of movement is here regarded as a central aspect for contemporary dancers that is yet to be widely considered pedagogically. Thus, by nurturing the awareness of kinesthesia and giving voice to this multilayered sense, I sought to broaden its understanding within the context of dance.
From how we’ve made it here to where we stand now: The presence of the Alexander Technique in higher education in Brazil
Authors: Cavalcanti Raquel Pires
Published: September 2020

This article traces the arrival of the Alexander Technique in Brazil in the 1980s and its later insertion in higher education in the country. It focuses on two experiences: one at Universidade Federal do Estado do Rio de Janeiro – UNIRIO (Federal University of the State of Rio de Janeiro) – as a university extension course for musicians and one at Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais – UFMG (Federal University of Minas Gerais and State University of Campinas) as an elective subject for dancers as part of the undergraduate dance course. The article aims to discuss the particularities as well as the challenges of introducing the Alexander Technique for the first time to trained dancers and musicians. The methodological approach included interviews with Alexander Technique teachers working and living in Brazil as well as the author’s personal experiences teaching the Alexander Technique in a university setting, articulated with the literature on this topic. The article hopes to contribute to the reflection on the role of somatic practices in higher education in order to collaborate with strategies that may help the teaching-learning process in an artistic-pedagogical academic environment.
Somatic–Performative Research: Artistic practices, pedagogical processes, methodological principles
Authors: Fernandes Ciane
Published: September 2020

Somatic–performative research (SPR) is a mode of Artistic Practice as Research I have been developing in the past fifteen years. Major influences of SPR have been Laban/Bartenieff Movement Analysis, Authentic Movement, dance theatre and performance. Performativity in a somatic perspective is a constant state of change, between pulsing and resting, innovation and balance, in a process of merging, differentiating and growing. In SPR, the research subject and its enquiries are alive and pulsing in contrasting forces. We merge into them to move with and be moved by them, in dynamic relationship with an inter-artistic creative environment. The association of somatic and performative research implies specific pedagogical choices, strategies and activities. As part of an academic moving field, the SPR encompasses the integration of inner attunement and coherence with artistic exploration, sensorial merger and critical analysis, creativity and social relevance.
Mestizo Corporalities: Tropical/vibrant Latin American bodies
Authors: Sebiane Serrano Leonardo José
Published: September 2020

The research suggests understandings about the importance of activation (of/from/in) the body with the systems (culture/communication/health) through somatic–performative experiences; by means of which the anaesthetized body is destabilized for an awakening of states of the Mestizo Corporalities in the (re)cognition of the tropical/vibrant body. The initiative has fostered the ecology of knowledge, as well as a decolonial education in a research proposal that aims to anthropofagize these experiences in movement of the performer-researcher for an activation/reactivation of diverse points of view incorporating several principles of the somatic–performative approach, embracing the (inter)arts as an actuator of relationships with nature-life-world, their religious-ritualistic syncretisms and the day-to-day experiences, as well as the paths-identities of the performer-person-researcher. This narrative aims to incorporate completed performances and expose how these paths affect my identity networks; it is in this flow of interactions that articulate transpositions of learning and their different contributions to systems (culture–communication–health) that somatic–performative experiences renew the awakening to the mestizo vibrational body and in some way force the presence of practice research for other methodologies for a decolonial education and knowledge ecology.
Performing a collective-field-body
Authors: Caetano Patrícia , Torralba Ruth , Resende Catarina , Lima Maurílio M.
Published: September 2020

The text aims to present somatic practices as a politics of the sensible that, at the same time, enlarges the microperceptive dimension and creates a collective-field-body, performing connections and mutual affections between insurgent bodies. A tragic event was the trigger of a performative-somatic contagion experience: the murder of Marielle Franco, a Rio de Janeiro city councilwoman, on March 2018. In the face of this event, we seek to understand the pain affirmation as a form of resistance and re-existence, as well as a source of confrontation with a power that slaughters bodies.
I am/we are: Contemporary dance, somatics and new older bodies
Authors: Weber da Silva Suzane , Dantas Mônica Fagundes , Schul Eva , Severino Eduardo , Lima Duarte Robson , Teixeira Luísa Beatriz Trevisan
Published: September 2020

In this photographic article, we gather five Brazilian choreographers and dancers who are over 50 years old: Eva Schul (72), Robson Duarte (57), Eduardo Severino (57), Suzi Weber (55) and Mônica Dantas (52). Movement and dance photos support a narrative about age, longevity and fragility in contemporary dance. We try to answer some questions: how old is too old to dance? How do we embody time? How do we integrate damage and fragility to our dance? We have been collaborating with Eva Schul since the 1990s, and in parallel, we have been developing our own work. Since the 1980s, Eva Schul has been working with contemporary dance integrating somatic practices. So, this visual essay addresses topics related to the history of somatic practices and contemporary dance in southern Brazil and somatic perspectives on the ageing issue. We intend to give voice and image to those dancers and choreographers that are challenging the perspective of body image in dance, and highlight their older bodies, which can display vulnerability and fragility and, at the same time, strength and desire, ready to fight the battles of art and life. Our vision is that to give voice and image to those dancing bodies matured by the passage of time constitutes a political act.

Authors: Gaashan Muaadh M. , Al-Mubarak Abdullah I. A. , Hussen Jamal
Published: September 2020

Background and Aim: Different properties of the newborn immune system have been characterized in many species. For the newborn camel calf, however, the phenotype and composition of blood leukocytes have so far not been evaluated. The current study aimed to analyze the distribution of leukocyte subpopulations and their expression pattern of cell adhesion molecules in newborn and adult dromedary camels. Materials and Methods: Blood samples were collected from 17 newborn camel calves and 32 adult camels. For each sample, total leukocytes were separated and analyzed for their composition and cell adhesion molecules expression by flow cytometry. Results: In comparison to adult camels, newborn camel calves had higher leukocyte numbers and higher numbers of neutrophils, monocytes, and lymphocytes but lower numbers of eosinophils in their blood. Among the lymphocyte populations in calves, the fractions of B cells and γδ T cells were elevated when compared to adults, whereas CD4-positive T cells were reduced. The comparison between camel calves and adult camels revealed significantly lower expression of the cell adhesion molecules CD11a, CD11b, and CD18 on granulocytes, monocytes, and lymphocytes in calves. Conclusion: Newborn camel calves show a distinct composition and phenotype pattern of blood leukocytes when compared to adult camels. The observed rise in many leukocyte populations in calf blood may be due to reduced migratory activity in calf leukocyte populations.

Authors: ALFIFTO Alfito , RINI Endang Sulistya , ABSAH Yeni
Published: September 2020

Tourism is a new kind of industry that can accelerate economic growth and availability of employment, income increment, standards of living and stimulate other productive sectors. In the context of tourism, satisfaction is referred to, as part of the expectation before travel and experience after the trip. The satisfaction of tourists can be influenced by their experience in visiting tourism destinations. Experience can be the key to the success of tourism industry. The tourism experience is divided into two, namely experiential quality and experiential value. Tourists who visit Lake Toba will get their personal experience from their holiday. The satisfaction in enjoying Lake Toba will help those tourists consider if they would return or not. The purpose of this research is to analyze experiential quality impacts on tourist satisfaction through experiential value. The sampling method used is accidental sampling. The population of this research is domestic tourists who visit Lake Toba in Samosir District. The number of respondents in this study was 140. Data analysis is done through PLS-SEM by using SmartPLS 3.0 program. The results showed significant effects of experiential quality on experiential value, experiential quality on tourist satisfaction, experiential value on tourist satisfaction, and experiential quality on the satisfaction of tourists through experiential value.

Authors: ARKLINA Anda , GRINBERGA Kristine , SINGH Nripendra , LIVINA Agita
Published: September 2020

The purpose of this study is to explore the role of the North Vidzeme Biosphere Reserve’s image (functional, symbolic and experiential) in building young visitors’ intentions to visit biosphere reserves. Integrated research methods were used. An online survey was conducted for data collection (n=295), and focus group discussions and observations (three groups - two from Latvia and one from Estonia) were conducted about youth traveling behavior in the North Vidzeme Biosphere Reserve. Descriptive statistics and structural equation modeling were used to analyze data. Findings showed that the North Vidzeme Biosphere Reserve has a weak image in the perception of young people. Most respondents agreed that visiting biosphere reserves relieves stress, helps them to socialize, and allows them to escape from daily routine; additionally, they noted that they would visit protected areas more often if they would see their friends visiting them. Youth 15–19 was more excited, pleasureful, and excited about visiting biosphere reserves, but youth 20–25 was more neutral about it. Both groups agreed that there was a lack of advertisements and visibility of these areas on social media platforms. Research results showed that improving functional, symbolic, and emotional images of the North Vidzeme Biosphere Reserve will have a positive effect on youth visiting and revisiting intentions.

Published: September 2020

The status of the capital suburb gives additional attractiveness to rural territories for both internal migrants and labor migrants from other regions and oblasts of the country. Social and economic problems are the factor of strengthening the migratory activity of the population of able-bodied age that can have a considerable influence on changing the demographic situation. The population shift is one of the global processes in the modern world. At present virtually all countries are faced with this phenomenon in various forms depending on the level of social and economic development, geographical location and specifics of the proceeding demographic processes.

Shchuchinsko-Borovskaya resort area is a resort with excellent natural and climatic conditions, rich therapeutic and recreational resources and historical and cultural foundation, favorable geographical location in the center of the Republic, close to the capital of the Republic of Kazakhstan, Astana. The growth of the income of travel agencies can be expected due to the increase in the cost of the package, because the number of vouchers is likely to decrease due to the reduction of potential tourists. Given that the strategy of long-term development of the Akmola region provides state stimulation of tourism development and recreation in the region, it will be necessary to improve the information and statistical support of this area.

The Importance Of Early Child Drug Education; Indonesian Regulatory Perspective
Authors: Widjaja Gunawan
Published: September 2020

Drug abuse can be happened to anybody. Drug abuse can cause systematic destruction to the sustainability of a state. It is especially important that children and teenager should be avoided from using drugs. There are many kinds of approaches that can be done. One among them was an early education against drug abuse. This research aimed to elaborate the importance of early child drug education and try to provide solutions on how the education must be conducted, based on Indonesian laws and regulations.

Data used in this research were of secondary data, which mainly consisted of primary legal sources and secondary legal sources. Data were obtained through literature review using “google” search machine. Data were analysed using deductive “legal reasoning” method, with qualitative approach. Research found that in many jurisdictions, children have been introduced, exposed, and misuse several kinds of drugs. To avoid it, state shall initiate and provide support through education. It may involve formal or informal education institutions. Research also found that early drugs education for children would be good to provide early knowledge to the children so that they can avoid misusing drugs. However, it must be taught by competent person to avoid mis-reception. Indonesia shall has enough sources to implement it. Under current prevailing legislations, Indonesia shall have enough support to start the education. Though Indonesia has sufficient laws and regulations, however Indonesia still needs good system, competent human resources, technologies, facilities, infrastructure, and enough financing to implement the laws and regulations. Inter-departmental cooperation must be set up to support the implementation.
Nigeria’s Foreign Policy, Reciprocity and Africa Centeredness: The Need for a Reconstruction in the 21st Century
Authors: Kia Bariledum , Udeoji Ebele Angela
Published: September 2020

Nigeria foreign policy in the 21st century has attracted a great deal of attention, as the dynamics on the world stage and domestic realities continue to impose challenges for the citizens. While many countries have appreciated the new realities of world politics and have however adjusted to the new global situations, Nigeria is yet to adjust her foreign policy with domestic realities. Thus, the study explores Nigeria’s Africa centeredness’ policy with the view to ascertain its relevance or otherwise in the 21st century. Descriptive research method with explanatory variant are used. Findings show that, for as long as the objective of Nigeria’s foreign policy is to ensure protection of black and African interest, Nigeria cannot but find it necessary to offer solidarity with African states. However, because very little has happened to show that she has made so much sacrifice in African affairs, the study recommends amongst others that the scope of Nigeria’s reciprocity should be restricted to issues that are more apparently in consonance with her national interest.
New X-Ray Microtomography Setups and Optimal Scan Conditions to Investigate Methane Hydrate-Bearing Sand Microstructure
Authors: Le Thi Xiu , Aimedieu Patrick , Bornert Michel , Chabot Baptiste , King Andrew , Tang Anh Minh
Published: September 2020

Methane hydrates, which are naturally formed at high pressures and low temperatures in marine and permafrost sediments, represent a great potential energy resource but also a considerable geo-hazard and climate change source. Investigating the grain-scale morphology of methane hydrate-bearing sandy sediments is crucial for the interpretation of geophysical data and reservoir-scale simulations in the scope of methane gas production as methane hydrate morphologies and distribution within the porous space significantly impact their macroscopic physical/mechanical properties. X-ray computed tomography (XRCT) and synchrotron X-ray computed tomography (SXRCT) are commonly used to analyze the microstructure of geo-materials. However, methane hydrates exist only at high pressures (up to several megapascals) and low temperatures (a few degrees Celsius). This article describes the development of three experimental setups, which aim at creating methane hydrates in sandy sediment, adapted to XRCT and SXRCT observations. The advantages and drawbacks of each setup are discussed. The discussions focus on the effects of the choice of the system to control temperature and pressure on the quality of images. The obtained results would be useful for future works involving temperature control systems or pressure control systems, or both, adapted to XRCT and SXRCT observations of various geo-materials.
Analysis of Gal4 Expression Patterns in Adult Drosophila Females
Authors: Weaver Lesley N , Ma Tianlu , Drummond-Barbosa Daniela
Published: September 2020

Precise genetic manipulation of specific cell types or tissues to pinpoint gene function requirement is a critical step in studies aimed at unraveling the intricacies of organismal physiology. Drosophila researchers heavily rely on the UAS/Gal4/Gal80 system for tissue-specific manipulations; however, it is often unclear whether the reported Gal4 expression patterns are indeed specific to the tissue of interest such that experimental results are not confounded by secondary sites of Gal4 expression. Here, we surveyed the expression patterns of commonly used Gal4 drivers in adult Drosophila female tissues under optimal conditions and found that multiple drivers have unreported secondary sites of expression beyond their published cell type/tissue expression pattern. These results underscore the importance of thoroughly characterizing Gal4 tools as part of a rigorous experimental design that avoids potential misinterpretation of results as we strive for understanding how the function of a specific gene/pathway in one tissue contributes to whole-body physiology.
Draft Genome Assembly of the Freshwater Apex Predator Wels Catfish (Silurus glanis) Using Linked-Read Sequencing
Authors: Ozerov Mikhail Yu , Flajšhans Martin , Noreikiene Kristina , Vasemägi Anti , Gross Riho
Published: September 2020

The wels catfish (Silurus glanis) is one of the largest freshwater fish species in the world. This top predator plays a key role in ecosystem stability, and represents an iconic trophy-fish for recreational fishermen. S. glanis is also a highly valued species for its high-quality boneless flesh, and has been cultivated for over 100 years in Eastern and Central Europe. The interest in rearing S. glanis continues to grow; the aquaculture production of this species has almost doubled during the last decade. However, despite its high ecological, cultural and economic importance, the available genomic resources for S. glanis are very limited. To fulfill this gap we report a de novo assembly and annotation of the whole genome sequence of a female S. glanis. The linked-read based technology with 10X Genomics Chromium chemistry and Supernova assembler produced a highly continuous draft genome of S. glanis: ∼0.8Gb assembly (scaffold N50 = 3.2 Mb; longest individual scaffold = 13.9 Mb; BUSCO completeness = 84.2%), which included 313.3 Mb of putative repeated sequences. In total, 21,316 protein-coding genes were predicted, of which 96% were annotated functionally from either sequence homology or protein signature searches. The highly continuous genome assembly will be an invaluable resource for aquaculture genomics, genetics, conservation, and breeding research of S. glanis.

Surveillance of enteropathogenic bacteria, protozoa and helminths in travellers returning from the tropics
Authors: Wiemer Dorothea , Schwarz Norbert Georg , Burchard Gerd-Dieter , Frickmann Hagen , Loderstaedt Ulrike , Hagen Ralf-Matthias
Published: September 2020

Diarrhoea is a frequent symptom associated with travelling to tropical regions, but the cause is often not found. Epidemiology was assessed including up-to-date real-time PCR approaches.

We analysed datasets of 528 patients who presented at the Bernhard Nocht Institute for Tropical Medicine in Hamburg, Germany, between 2006 and 2010 for screening purposes or because of diarrhoea. Stool samples were obtained and investigated by microscopy, bacterial culture, two PCR assays targeting Entamoeba histolytica, Entamoeba dispar, Giardia duodenalis, and Cryptosporidium parvum, or Salmonella spp., Shigella/EIEC spp., Campylobacter jejuni, and Yersinia spp.

Among patients with gastrointestinal symptoms, 51% tested positive for bacteria or parasites, of which 66% had a known enteropathogenic potential. In patients without diarrhoea, 53% (n = 80) were positive, and 33% of these cases harboured agents of pathogenic potential. Association with clinical symptoms was primarily found for bacterial infections. Blastocystis hominis, however, was more frequent in asymptomatic than in symptomatic travellers.

In conclusion, the study stresses the etiological relevance of bacterial gastroenteritis in travellers returning from the tropics, the need for molecular approaches to increase diagnostic sensitivity and demonstrates that asymptomatic carriage of enteropathogens after prolonged stays in the tropics is similarly frequent compared with symptomatic infections in travellers.
Request-a-bet sports betting products indicate patterns of bettor preference and bookmaker profits
Authors: Newall Philip W.S. , Walasek Lukasz , Kiesel Rebecca Vázquez , Ludvig Elliot A. , Meyer Caroline
Published: September 2020

Background and aims

Request-a-bet services are a modern gambling product delivered via the social network Twitter, which allow sports bettors to design custom bets. The public nature of Twitter data provided a unique opportunity to investigate patterns of bettor preference and the bookmaker profit margin in soccer, the UK’s favorite sport.

Methods

Two multi-method studies. Twitter users’ engagement with request-a-bet services was monitored unobtrusively (n= 1,406), meaning that potential patterns across users’ requests could be observed, and the bookmaker profit margin could be estimated. Twitter users were also surveyed directly (n= 55), providing self-report measures of request-a-bet usage.

Results

Twitter users requested bets with an average potential payoff of £56.5 per £1 risked (median = £9). Overall, 9.7% of requested bets paid-off, but these were mostly bets at short odds. This meant that requests yielded a high bookmaker profit margin of 43.7% (roughly eight times higher than current margins in conventional soccer bets), which increased to 74.6% for bets at longer odds. Requested bets also tended to involve star players from the best teams. Finally, 92.7% of surveyed Twitter users reported placing at least one bet via request-a-bet services (mean = 44.4 bets).

Discussion and conclusions

Researchers can use request-a-bet products to increase their understanding of sports betting behavior. Sports bettors should be given information about how much higher the bookmaker profit margin can be in modern sports bets compared to the conventional sports bets that they may be more familiar with.
Event-related potentials in a two-choice oddball task of impaired behavioral inhibitory control among males with tendencies towards cybersex addiction
Authors: Wang Jianfeng , Dai Bing
Published: September 2020

Background and aims

Impaired behavioral inhibitory control (BIC) is known to play a crucial role in addictive behavior. However, research has been inconclusive as to whether this is also the case for cybersex addiction. This study aimed to investigate the time course of BIC in male individuals with tendencies towards cybersex addiction (TCA) using event-related potentials (ERPs) and to provide neurophysiological evidence of their deficient BIC.

Methods

Thirty-six individuals with TCA and 36 healthy controls (HCs) were given a Two-Choice Oddball task that required them to respond differently to frequent standard stimuli (images of people) and infrequent deviant stimuli (pornographic images) within 1,000 ms. Electroencephalography (EEG) was recorded as the participants performed the task.

Results

Despite the similarity of standard stimuli between the groups in terms of reaction times (RTs), the RTs of the TCA group to deviant stimuli were much slower than those of the HC group. The behavioral difference was accompanied by group differences in the averaged amplitudes of N2 (200–300 ms) and P3 (300–500 ms) components in the deviant-standard difference wave. More specifically, compared to the HC group, the TCA group demonstrated smaller N2 and P3 amplitude differences for deviant than standard stimuli.

Discussion and conclusions

Individuals with TCA were more impulsive than HC participants and shared neuropsychological and ERP characteristics of substance use disorder or behavioral addictions, which supports the view that cybersex addiction can be conceptualized as a behavioral addiction.
Aberrant posterior superior temporal sulcus functional connectivity and executive dysfunction in adolescents with internet gaming disorder
Authors: Lee Junghan , Lee Deokjong , Namkoong Kee , Jung Young-Chul
Published: September 2020

Background and aims

The clinical significance of Internet gaming disorder (IGD) is spreading worldwide, but its underlying neural mechanism still remains unclear. Moreover, the prevalence of IGD seems to be the highest in adolescents whose brains are in development. This study investigated the functional connectivity between large-scale intrinsic networks including default mode network, executive control network, and salience network. We hypothesized that adolescents with IGD would demonstrate different functional connectivity patterns among large-scale intrinsic networks, implying neurodevelopmental alterations, which might be associated with executive dysfunction.

Methods

This study included 17 male adolescents with Internet gaming disorder, and 18 age-matched male adolescents as healthy controls. Functional connectivity was examined using seed-to-voxel analysis and seed-to-seed analysis, with the nodes of large-scale intrinsic networks used as region of interests. Group independent component analysis was performed to investigate spatially independent network.

Results

We identified aberrant functional connectivity of salience network and default mode network with the left posterior superior temporal sulcus (pSTS) in adolescents with IGD. Furthermore, functional connectivity between salience network and pSTS correlated with proneness to Internet addiction and self-reported cognitive problems. Independent component analysis revealed that pSTS was involved in social brain network.

Discussion and conclusions

The results imply that aberrant functional connectivity of social brain network with default mode network and salience network was identified in IGD that may be associated with executive dysfunction. Our results suggest that inordinate social stimuli during excessive online gaming leads to altered connections among large-scale networks during neurodevelopment of adolescents.

STEFAN ZWEİG’IN ÖYKÜLERİNDE KADIN İMGESİ: CİNSELLİĞE VE ÖTEKİLİĞE HAPSOL(UN)MUŞ BEDENLER
Authors: TUNCER Cihan
Published: September 2020

Kadın, tarih boyunca kendini egemen özne olarak kuran erkeğin ötekiliği dayattığı bir konuma itilmiştir. Bu konumlanış sorununda elbette ataerkil toplum tarafından biçimlendirilen toplumsal cinsiyeti belirleyici olmuştur. Cinsiyetin kültürel yorumu veya cinsiyet üzerine bir anlam işlemesi olan toplumsal cinsiyet yapay ve ötekileştirici bir karakterdedir. Öyle ki toplumsal cinsiyet, kadını belirli rollere sıkıştıran dolayısıyla aşkınlığını engelleyen bir fenomendir. Erkek aşkınlığı ile ön planda iken kadına çoğunlukla annelik, cinsel partnerlik, ev işleri gibi dişilik işlevleri tanımlar toplumsal cinsiyeti. Kadının bu sorunlu durumu aynı zamanda bir bilgi sorunudur. Öteden beri felsefeden mitolojiye, tarihten siyasete bilgiyi üreten eril us (mind of men) olduğundan kadının bilginin nesnesi olması ve zihnen yadsınıp bedeniyle tanımlanması kaçınılmaz olmuştur. Zihnen yadsınan kadın, eril düşünce tarafından “duygusal, tutkularının peşinden koşan, düşünmeyen ve bilgi edinmeden yoksun” olarak imlenmiş, geleneksel ve modern toplumlarda cinsel bir partner, soyun devamlılığı için gerekli bir beden olarak kodlanmış, tüketim toplumunda medyada fetiş bir değere/cinsel nesneye dönüştürülmüş, görsel sanatlarda erotik, seyirlik bir nesne olarak içkinliğe hapsedilmiştir. Ataerkil düzenin kadını ikincil konuma/ötekiliğe ve cinselliğe yargılayan tutumu elbette yazında da kendine yer bulmuştur. Feminizmin 1960’lı yıllarda yazına yönelmesiyle öncelikli amacı kadının yazındaki kurgulanışını, tiplemelerini ortaya çıkarmak olmuş, bu amaçla feminist eleştiri kuramı geliştirilmiştir. Bu çalışmada Alman yazınının tanınmış yazarlarından olan Stefan Zweig’ın seçilmiş öykülerinde kadın imgesi araştırılmış, yöntem olarak okura yönelik feminist edebiyat eleştirisi benimsenmiştir.

Published: September 2020

Changes in the atrium buildings in the functional and compositional aspects in diff erent historical periods infl uenced the typology and features of the use of atrium spaces in modern architecture. This study is based on a comprehensive analysis of the development of atrium buildings and a synthesis of the obtained qualitative characteristics of atrium spaces with trends in the formation of functional-composite components in modern architecture. The purpose of the article is to identify typological features of atrium spaces that form the visual integration of internal and external spaces. Artistic expressiveness and variability of the use of atrium in modern architecture are prerequisites for the systematization and identifi cation of the features of the formation of atrium spaces. The author considers the formation of atrium spaces as an aspect of visual-spatial connections with the environment.

One of the elements of the quality of medical care is its accessibility, which depends on the material and technical baseof the institution, as well as on the availability of stuff and work management. Implementation of the new clinical guidelines of the Association of Oncologists of Russia (AOR) for the treatment of non-melanoma skin cancer (NRC), revealedthe problem of increasing the load on stuff and equipment.Purpose of the study.To investigate and forecast the load of the kilovoltage X-ray therapy unit taking into account theupdated clinical guidelines for the treatment of patients with non-melanoma skin cancer using radiotherapy. Determinethe clinical and organizational changes in the technology of x-ray therapy for non-melanoma skin cancer within theday-hospital department for the skin cancer size more than 2 cm after implementation of new clinical guidelines andfraction regimes in compare with previously used schemes; derive a mathematical model of the work of the kilovoltagex-ray therapy room.Materials and methods. Data from the kilovoltage X-ray therapy office of radiotherapy unit No. 2 of the Sverdlovsk Regional Oncology Dispensary (SROD) were used. The average duration of radiotherapy sessions per patient was estimatedand calculated using timekeeping. The results were evaluated using correlation analysis. In order to forecast the use ofmaterial and human resources, an economic method of mathematical modeling was used.Results. The analysis of the kilovoltage X-ray therapy unit of radiotherapy department No. 2 of the SROD for 3 yearsshowed an increase from 10.4 to 17.3 in the average number of therapeutic fractions per patient after the implementation of the updated clinical guidelines. An increase in the average number of radiotherapy sessions leads to a doublingof the average bed-day of the patient's stay in the day-hospital. The formula was proposed for predicting the work of theunit. There is a clear correlation between the duration of treatment, the dynamics of hospitalization and the number oftreated patients. The calculated results obtained using a mathematical model fully correspond to the actual performanceof the radiotherapy room.Conclusion. To ensure optimal availability of medical care, it is necessary to match treatment technologies with availableresources of the organization. The introduction of new treatment programs may require both the expansion of staff(medical, nursing), and an increase in the number of units of medical equipment. The obtained mathematical modelof the kilovoltage X-ray therapy room allows to predict the optimal mode of work of employees while maintaining thequality and accessability of medical care.

Purpose of the study. The goal is to conduct a comparative analysis of the correlation of learning success with self-assessment of physical and mental status and objective health status, taking into account the influence of demographic and socio-economic variables in senior students of medical and humanitarian specialties Materials and methods. The study was conducted from 01.12. 2017 to 01.03.2019 at the Far Eastern Federal University and the Pacific State Medical University. The sample size was 410 students (207 (50.6%) female, 203 (49.4%) male, average age 21.5 (1.2) years), who at the time of the study were studying in 4–6 courses. Information on demographic parameters, social conditions of study, residence, subjective data on morbidity and appeal was collected using: a comprehensive questionnaire on student status of a university (Pozdeeva, 2008; with additions of authors). The objective state of health and the comorbidity index were investigated when studying the medical documentation of medical institutions attached: Form 025 / y; 001–1 / y; 062 / y. In the study of quality of life associated with health, we used the international questionnaire “A short form of self-assessment of quality of life related to health MOS SF-36”. Results. The total score of self-esteem of physical well-being among students of humanities was 66.1 points, among students of medical specialties 56.4 points. Academic performance was higher among students of both directions, marking their learning conditions as satisfactory and good (r = 0.034; r = 0.048 / r = 0.045; r = 0.065). Student performance was also higher for students in both areas, evaluating the quality of education as high (r = 0.032; r = 0.046 / r = 0.033; r = 0.043), but lower for students with a high comorbidity index (r = –0.038 / r = –0.036). We also found that an increase in the number of HRQoL points is accompanied by a significant increase in academic performance in students of both directions (r = 0.035; r = 0.045 / r = 0.033; r = 0.050). An analysis of the linear regression model describing the association of academic performance with variables in the pooled sample revealed that this indicator strongly correlates with the comorbidity index (r = 8.27), HRQoL (r = 7.28), quality of education, and family income (5.55 / 5.06). At the same time, academic performance had an unreliable relationship with age, individual income, and weakly correlated with the conditions of study and residence. Conclusion. Chronic morbidity among senior medical and humanitarian students is high (comorbidity index 1.5–1.7), but the total self-assessment of the quality of life associated with health is 59–62 points and falls within the normal range of values. Thus, despite the high level of chronic somatic pathology, students generally positively assess their physical and psychological status.
