Published: August 2018

Background: Dying is a normal human phenomenon that requires a holistic care approach. Nurses’ attitudes towards the care for dying patients need to be explored, understood, and analyzed to improve the quality of care in palliative setting, including in nursing students.Purpose: This study explored the nursing students’ attitude and its relationship with the students’ demographic profile in caring for the dying patients in Indonesia.Methods: This study used a quantitative descriptive cross-sectional research design.  The samples were 192 nursing students from Universitas Jember, Indonesia, who were recruited by using simple random sampling. Data were collected using the Frommelt Attitudes towards the Care of the Dying Care Form B Indonesian version (FATCOD-BI). The reliability test of FATCOD-BI showed a Cronbach’s alpha of 0.68, and the result of validity test using correlation coefficient showed the range of -0.278 to 0.544. Data were analyzed using frequency distribution, and mean differences test using t-test and One-Way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA).Results: Results showed that the mean of nursing students’ attitudes in caring for dying patients was 93.83±5.96 (range 30-120). Gender and training experiences had no relationship with students’ attitudes in caring for dying patients (p=0.22 and p=0.943). There was a relationship between the experiences and student academic level and the students’ attitudes in caring for dying patients (p=0.023 and p=0.036). The students’ experiences and academic level become a primary factor in the attitudes toward caring for dying patients.Conclusion: Findings revealed that student nurses’ attitudes in caring for dying patients was in low category and there was no significant relationship between gender and training experience and students’ attitudes towards caring for the dying patients. In contrast, experiences in caring for dying patients and academic level were associated with students’ attitudes. Further studies in the development of curriculum on dying patient care emphasizing on socio-demographic status are recommended.

Poly(lactic acid)/chitosan (PLA/CS) green nanoparticles containing hydroquinine (Hq) were prepared by emulsion method. The content of Hq was 10–50 wt% compared with the weight total of PLA and CS. The characteristics of these nanoparticles were analyzed by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), differential scanning calorimetry, field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), and particle size analysis. The wavenumbers of C=O, C=N, OH, and CH3 groups in FTIR spectra of the PLA/CS/Hq (PCHq) nanoparticles shifted in comparision with neat PLA, CS, and Hq that proved the interaction between these components. The FESEM images and particle size analysis results showed that the basic particle size of PCHq nanoparticles ranged between 100 and 200 nm. The Hq released from PLA/CS nanoparticles in pH 2 and pH 7.4 solutions was determined by ultraviolet-visible method. The obtained results indicated that the linear regression coefficient of calibration equation of Hq in the above solutions approximates 1. The Hq release from the PCHq nanoparticles includes fast release for the eight first testing hours, and then, controlled slow release. The Hq released process was obeyed according to the Korsmeyer-Peppas kinetic model.
Mergers in Bardi: contextual probability and predictors of sound change
Authors: Babinski Sarah , Bowern Claire
Published: August 2018

A crucial question for historical linguistics has been why some sound changes happen but not others. Recent work on the foundations of sound change has argued that subtle distributional facts about segments in a language, such as functional load, play a role in facilitating or impeding change. Thus not only are sound changes not all equally plausible, but their likelihood depends in part on phonotactics and aspects of functional load, such as the density of minimal pairs. Tests of predictability on the chance of phoneme merger suggest that phonemes with low functional load (as defined by minimal pair density) are more likely to merge, but this has been investigated only for a small number of languages with very large corpora and well attested mergers. Here we present work suggesting that the same methods can be applied to much smaller corpora, by presenting the results of a preliminary exploration of nine Australian languages, with a particular focus on Bardi, a Nyulnyulan language from Australia’s northwest. Our results support the hypothesis that the probability of merger is higher when phonemes distinguish few minimal pairs.
Patterns of probabilistic segment deletion/reduction in English and Japanese
Authors: Turnbull Rory
Published: August 2018

Probabilistic phonetic reduction is widely attested in a variety of languages, acoustic domains, and interpretations of predictability. Less well-studied is the categorical effect of probabilistic segment deletion, which in principle is subject to similar pressures. This paper presents the results of an exploratory study into patterns of segment deletion in corpora of spontaneous speech in English and Japanese. Analysis at the word level reveals that words with more phonemes and higher-frequency words tend to have more of their segments deleted. Analysis at the phoneme level reveals that high-probability phonemes are more likely to be deleted than low-probability phonemes. For Japanese only, this analysis also shows effects of word length, frequency, and neighborhood density on deletion probability. Taken together, these results suggest that several large-scale patterns of probabilistic segment deletion mirror the processes of phonetic reduction and apply to both languages. Some patterns, though, appear to be language-specific, and it is not clear to what extent languages can and do differ in this regard. These findings are discussed in terms of our understanding of the universality of proposed predictability effects, and in terms of probabilistic reduction more broadly.
Application of conditional averaging to time delay estimation of random signals
Authors: Hanus Robert , Kowalczyk Adam , Chorzępa Rafał
Published: August 2018

The article presents the possibilities of using the function of conditional average value of a delayed signal (CAV) and the function of conditional average value of a delayed signal absolute value (CAAV) to determine the time delay estimation (TDE) of random signals. For discrete CAV and CAAV estimators, the standard uncertainties of the estimation of function values at extreme points and the standard uncertainties of the TDE were given and compared with the corresponding uncertainties for the direct discrete cross-correlation function (CCF) estimator. It was found that the standard uncertainty of TDE for CAV is lower than for CCF independent of signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) for parameter values of α ≥ 2 and M/N ≥ 0.25 (where: α - relative threshold value, M/N - quotient of number of averaging and number of samples). The standard uncertainty of TDE for CAAV will be lower than for CCF for SNR values greater than 0.35 (for N/M = 1).
Cold-War Commons: Tragedy, Critique, and the Future of the Illiberal Problem Space
Authors: Eppinger Monica
Published: August 2018

Major twentieth-century social theories like socialism and liberalism depended on property as an explanatory principle, prefiguring a geopolitical rivalry grounded in differing property regimes. This article examines the Cold War as an under-analyzed context for the idea of “the tragedy of the commons.” In Soviet practice, collectivization was meant to provide the material basis for cultivating particular forms of sociability and an antidote to the ills of private property. Outsiders came to conceptualize it as tragic in both economic and political dimensions. Understanding the commons as a site of tragedy informed Western “answers” to the “problem” of Soviet collective ownership when the Cold War ended. Privatization became a mechanism for defusing old tragedies, central to a post-Cold War project of advancing “market democracy.” Meanwhile, the notion of an “illiberal commons” stands ready for redeployment in future situations conceived as tragically problematic.
“A Vision for the End of Days”: Deferral of Revelation in Daniel and at the End of Mark
Authors: Hultgren Stephen
Published: August 2018

An important clue to the meaning of Mark 16,8 has not received adequate attention. The verse is an intertextual allusion to Dan 10,7. Daniel 10–12 establishes a pattern of revelation, concealment, and future revelation, in which the resurrection of the dead is apocalyptically deferred – its truth not confirmable until it happens at the end of days. A similar pattern of concealment and revelation characterizes Mark’s gospel. At the end of the gospel, the resurrection of Jesus is announced (and so revealed) in story time, but further concealed in discourse time. In the act of narrating, the message is once again revealed. With the omission of a resurrection appearance, however, the vision of the risen Lord remains concealed until the revelation of the Son of Man at the parousia.
Revisiting High Priesthood Christology in Hebrews
Authors: Loader William
Published: August 2018

This paper revisits the author’s research on the christology of Hebrews completed in the 1970s in the light of subsequent research. It concentrates, in particular, on the way key problems of interpretation have been handled. These include the extent to which the author’s atonement day typology dictates a soteriology which reduces Christ’s death to a preparatory event and depicts a heavenly offering as the salvific event or, conversely, whether the author employs atonement day typology selectively to interpret Jesus’ death as salvific. It also addresses the associated problems created by parts of the book which report Jesus’ appointment at high priesthood as occurring after his death at his exaltation and other parts which appear to imply that he was acting as a high priest already during his earthly ministry.
Clinical Outcomes of Mitral Annuloplasty with Flexible Bands in Ischemic Mitral Regurgitation
Authors: Celkan Mehmet Adnan , Kork Ismail , Ulucay Abdullah
Published: August 2018

Background: In this study, we present the outcomes of 53 patients with concomitant coronary artery disease and ischemic mitral regurgitation (IMR)who underwent coronary bypass grafting (CABG) plus mitral repair (flexible posterior band annuloplasty).

Materials and Methods: A total of 53 patients with concomitant ischemic mitral regurgitation  and coronary artery disease underwent CABG plus posterior mitral band annuloplasty between June 2008 and June 2015. Flexible Duran AnCore® annuloplasty band (Medtronic) was used in all patients. Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) was intraoperatively performed in all patients. A transthoracic (TTE) follow-up examination was performed at postoperative months 1, 3, 6, and 12.

Results: The average cross-clamp and cardiopulmonary bypass times were 85.11 ± 5.79 and 105.98 ± 6.14 minutes, respectively. Postoperatively, there was an improvement in the grade of mitral regurgitation from 3.8 to 0.7 and in the NYHA class from 3.1 ± 0.5 to 0.5 ± 0.6 (both P < .001). In addition, statistically significant reductions in LVEDD, LVESD, and PAP were observed (P < .001). Ejection fraction rose from 39 ± 10% to 45 ± 8% (P < .01). Early mortality rate was 7.5% (n = 4). Mean follow-up was at 16 months. Late mortality occurred in one patient. During the follow-up period, reoperation was required in 2 patients. Only 2 parameters, redo surgery (P = .030) and IABP use (P = .021), were found related to mortality (P < .001). Cox regression analysis showed that redo surgery and postoperative bleeding increased mortality by 14.731 times (odds ratio: 14.731; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.530-141.852) and 23.839 times (odds ratio: 23.839; 95% CI: 1.478-348.641).

Discussion: In patients with IMR, mitral band annuloplasty performed in conjunction with CABG was associated with an increase in functional capacity and ejection fraction as well as a reduction in LVEDD and LVESD. This approach represents a feasible alternative with low mortality and  prevents future development of mitral regurgitation and the need for redo surgery.

Aim. To assess the expression of ММР-9 and TIMP-2 after intramyocardial injection of the allogenic biomaterial (AB) into ischemized myocardium in rodents.

Material and methods.One hundred Wistar rodents were used, who underwent ligation of coronary artery. The experiment group (n=50), together with coronary occlusion, received the suspension of AB 12 mg. General histology was applied: hematoxyline and eosine, by Mallori; immune histochemistry (ММP-9, TIMP-2, CD68); morphometry: index of the scar area (ISA), amount of ММP-9, TIMP-2, CD68-positive cells.

Results.It was shown that in the experimental group, after implantation of AB there were lesser than in controls values of ISA (2,74 times, p<0,05 . <0,0001), numbers of MMP9+ cells (p<0,001) and macrophages CD68+ (p<0,05), as the manifestation of proteolysis and area of lesion. On the contrary, amount of Timp-2+ cells in the experimental group was higher than in the control (p<0,0004).

Conclusion.Resorption of allogenic material (Alloplant) products does influence the balance of metalloproteinases and their inhibitors in the myocardium after ischemic lesion. This effect might influence the processes of myocardial remodelling and scar formation.

Published: August 2018

ABSTRACT Background: Laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy has been the choice for resection of distal pancreas lesions due many advantages over open approach. Spleen preservation technique seems minimizes infectious complications in long-term outcome. Aim: To present the results of laparoscopic distal pancreatectomies with spleen preservation by Kimura´s technique (preservation of spleen blood vessels) performed by single surgical team. Methods: Retrospective case series aiming to evaluate both short and long-term outcomes of laparoscopic distal pancreatectomies with spleen preservation. Results: A total of 54 laparoscopic distal pancreatectomies were performed, in which 26 were laparoscopic distal pancreatectomies with spleen preservation by Kimura´s technique. Mean age was 47.9 years-old (21-75) where 61.5% were female. Mean BMI was 28.5 kg/m² (18-38.8). Mean diameter of lesion was 4.3 cm (1.8-7.5). Mean operative time was 144.1 min (90-200). Intraoperative bleeding was 119.2 ml (50-600). Conversion to laparotomy 3% (n=1). Postoperative morbidity was 11.5%. Postoperative mortality was null. Mean of hospital stay was 4.8 days (2-14). Mean time of follow-up period was 19.7 months (2-60). There was no neoplasm recurrence or mortality on evaluated period. There was no infectious complication. Conclusion: Laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy with spleen and splenic vessels preservation is feasible, safe, and effective procedure. This technique presented both low morbidity and null mortality on this sample. There were neither infectious complications nor neoplasm recurrence on long-term follow-up period.

Published: August 2018

ABSTRACT Coffee pulp is produced in large quantities, and its disposal can pollute the environment. However, the nutritional value and antioxidant content of coffee pulp make it a good option for animal feed. Therefore, the objective of this study was to determine the chemical composition, the phenolic compounds and the antioxidant capacity of coffee pulp using fresh (FCP), ensiled (ECP), and ensiled and sun-dried (EDCP) coffee pulp. The study design was completely randomized with three treatments (n=4). Dry matter (DM), crude protein (CP), ash, acid detergent fiber (ADF), neutral detergent fiber (NDF), lignin, phenolic compounds and antioxidant capacity were determined. Data were analyzed by analysis of variance, and means were compared with the Tukey test. The percentage of CP, NDF and ADF was higher in ECP and EDCP than in FCP. There were no changes in lignin content. Ensiling and sun drying did not decrease (P>0.05) caffeine or tannins. No differences were found in caffeic acid (2.031±2.873, 5.103±0.391, 4.913±0.018 mg g-1 DM in FCP, ECP, EDCP, respectively). The concentration of chlorogenic acid (FCP 2.593±1.756; ECP 5.368±0.422; EDCP 4.875±0.678 mg g-1) increased with the ensiling process, but it was not affected by sun drying. Ethanol decreased in ECP and EDCP relative to FPC (FPC 15.88±0.97%; ECP 7.04±1.16%; EDCP 0.00%); however, antioxidant capacity was not affected. It was concluded that the ensiling process and sun drying affected the nutritional value of coffee pulp but not its antioxidant capacity.

Published: August 2018

Abstract Metynnis lippincottianus is a freshwater native fish to the Guiana basin and Amazon basin and was recently introduced into the São Francisco River in Brazil. This study aimed to determine the helminths parasites of M. lippincottianus from the Três Marias Reservoir, upper São Francisco River, State of Minas Gerais, Southeast Brazil. From 67 hosts examined, 63 were parasitized by 9,257 helminths represented by five species: Dadayius sp. [prevalence (P) = 1.49%, mean abundance (MA) = 0.01]; proteocephalid plerocercoids (P = 43.28%, MA = 5.04); Procamallanus (Spirocamallanus) inopinatus (P = 29.85%, MA = 0.54); Spinitectus rodolphiheringi (P = 2.99%, MA = 0.03); Spinoxyuris sp. (P = 85.07%, MA = 132.54). These findings show that M. lippincottianus is an additional host to the helminths infecting fish native to the São Francisco River (plerocercoids, P. (S.) inopinatus and S. rodolphiheringi), and highlight the fact that Dadayius sp. and Spinoxyuris sp., which were typically found in native Metynnis spp. in other basins, also parasitizing the non-native serrasalmid M. lippincottianus in São Francisco River. These two helminth species have thrived in this freshwater ecosystem with the expansion of the geographical distribution of the host species to the São Francisco River.

Published: August 2018

Despite the undeniable successes of modern medicine, the problems of oncology and, in particular, oncogynecology are still unresolved. Thus, a 5-year overall survival rate for stage I ovarian cancer is 89 %, for stage IV – 17 %. Given that complaints in patients with ovarian cancer appear only after the tumor has passed beyond the organ, the most important and key factor in successful treatment is the correct diagnosis of ovarian neoplasm. Observance of the correct algorithm and correct surgery can significantly improve the results of treatment. The article will discuss the difficulties of diagnosing ovarian cancer.
Adolescents Encountering Online Risks: Characteristics of Parental Mediation
Authors: Soldatova G.U. , Lvova E.N.
Published: August 2018

New ways of life in the digital world create a special social situation of development of the child, which is characterized by a decrease in the universality and dominance of the adult in the parent-child relationships in online contexts. Nevertheless, children and adolescents still desperately need the support of adults, especially of their parents, to master new online opportunities as well as to cope with online risks. The paper presents data from two studies carried out in 2013 and in 2018 and attempts to compare some of the knowledge and abilities of the parents that they had as assistants and experts helping their children to explore the Internet. These studies were conducted in 8 federal districts of the Russian Federation on the following samples: in 2013 — 1203 adolescents aged 12—17 and 1209 parents; in 2018 — 1554 adolescents aged 12—17 and 1105 parents. The paper traces the changes in the digital portraits of modern parents as Internet users, focusing, in particular, on their awareness of their children’s encounters with online risks and on the dynamics of parental mediation strategies concerning the use of the Internet. There is a clear tendency to reduce the digital gap between the Russian adolescents and their parents which is expressed both in the increasing digital activity of the parents and in their concern with establishing and maintaining close relationships with the children in the context of their Internet activity.

Para tal, dispomos de uma amostra composta por dez sujeitos, todos do sexo masculino e praticantes ativos. Os dados foram coletados por meio de entrevista semiestruturada. A análise dos dados foi feita a partir do método de análise de conteúdo. Foram avaliadas as Unidades de Contexto das respostas de cada praticante e as Unidades de Registro de cada dimensão do flow-feeling. Foram identificadas sete das oito dimensões nos relatos dos sujeitos. Concluiu-se que o flow-feeling se faz presente no mountain biking, com a ausência de apenas uma das dimensões – perda da noção do tempo.

Published: August 2018

Este artigo, de caráter ensaístico-propositivo, tem o intuito de apontar alguns aspectos para a sistematização do ensino dos elementos técnicos e táticos do tênis nas escolas segundo as abordagens atuais da Pedagogia do Esporte. Inicialmente são apresentados os elementos de desempenho do tênis, em especial aqueles enfatizados nas fases iniciais de ensino: a técnica (habilidade técnica) e a tática (tática individual). Num segundo momento são apresentadas as formas de ensino destes elementos segundo as abordagens atuais da Pedagogia do Esporte. Desse modo, nesta perspectiva de ensino, são apresentadas propostas para ensinar alunos com poucas habilidades, ao mesmo tempo em que estas são desenvolvidas durante os jogos táticos, envolvendo também as habilidades técnicas básicas da fase de iniciação e as formas de adaptação dos materiais durante a fase inicial de ensino em um contexto educacional com elevado número de crianças.

AS TEORIAS NORTE-AMERICANAS DO CONSENSO E DO CONFLITO VISTAS PELAS LENTES DA SOCIEDADE LATINO-AMERICANA: A CRIMINALIDADE NA SOCIEDADE PERIFÉRICA E OS MODELOS TEÓRICOS PRODUZIDOS PELA MODERNIDADE CENTRAL
THE AMERICAN THEORIES OF CONSENSUS AND CONFLICT VIEWED BY THE LENSES OF THE LATIN AMERICAN SOCIETY: THE CRIME IN PERIPHERAL SOCIETY AND THE THEORETICAL MODELS PRODUCED BY CENTRAL MODERNITY
Authors: Brandão Cláudio
Published: August 2018

As teorias sociológicas da criminalidade impulsionaram a autonomia da criminologia em relação ao direito penal. Elas romperam a subordinação que o positivismo impunha à criminologia em face da utilização de um paradigma etiológico, assim foi com a corrente sociológica que esse último paradigma cedeu lugar ao paradigma do desvio, originando as teorias que investigam a criminalidade através dos modelos do consenso e do conflito. Esses modelos, estruturados para a sociedade norte-americana, por certo fornecem elementos para a investigação científica, mas não são hábeis para a investigação da sociedade latino-americana. Isto se dá porque há um elemento da criminalidade da modernidade periférica que não se faz presente na modernidade central: a imposição de uma quota extra de privação e de violência não prevista no quadro normativo do direito, gerada pela grande deficiência infraestrutural do sistema penal e pela expressiva utilização de uma violência mortal por parte das agências de controle do sistema penal.

THE SECURITIZATION OF IUU FISHING IN THE SOUTHERN OCEAN
A SECURITIZAÇÃO DA PESCA INN NO OCEANO AUSTRAL
Authors: Ferreira Luciano Vaz
Published: August 2018

Fish stocks around the world are about to collapse, which has immensurable environmental, economic, and social consequences. Therefore, the possibility that IUU (illegal, unreported and unregulated) fishing proliferate is now followed closely by the international community. In this context, securitization processes of those issues start to arise. The Southern Ocean is particularity vulnerable to IUU fishing and may become the stage of new security dynamics.  Thus, we propose the following research question: "How is regulation of fishing at the Southern Ocean securitized and what role does international cooperation play in that process?". This article's main objective is to answer that question. Furthermore, its specific objectives are to investigate securitization of fishing internationally, to study security dynamics in the Southern Ocean, and to discuss the role of international regimes and cooperation for this process. This research project is exploratory in nature. As a research method, we applied literature review using multidisciplinary materials and document analysis.

INTERDISCIPLINARIDADE EM CIÊNCIAS DA NATUREZA: PERSPECTIVAS A RESPEITO DO DESENVOLVIMENTO DE UMA OFICINA DE ENSINO
Authors: Aguiar Hachiya Jefferson Sussumu , Passos Marinez Meneghello , Kirsch Deise Becker , Marques Leonardo Carmezini , Cypriano Pereira Paulo Antonio
Published: August 2018

A interdisciplinaridade é defendida por diversos profissionais da educação como sendo uma prática pedagógica que proporciona ao estudante certa integração entre os conteúdos dos componentes curriculares. Todavia, não se encontra entre as ações frequentes do ambiente escolar, pois a maior parte das instituições de ensino atua de forma fragmentada. Diante dessa constatação, alguns autores afirmam que uma prática que prioriza a integração e a correlação entre os conceitos pode facilitar a aprendizagem do estudante, porém complementam: criar e validar uma prática como sendo interdisciplinar representa um grande desafio. Foi nesse contexto que elaboramos a proposta de pesquisa cujo objetivo foi o de analisar as perspectivas de três professores da área de ciências da natureza (Biologia, Física e Química) a respeito do desenvolvimento de uma oficina interdisciplinar de ensino. Para interpretar tais perspectivas foram realizadas entrevistas semiestruturadas com esses professores desenvolvedores e com os estudantes participantes do desenvolvimento de tal oficina. De posse das transcrições dessas entrevistas e por meio dos procedimentos da análise de conteúdo, buscamos por unidades de registro que evidenciassem características relacionadas à temática: interdisciplinaridade. Desse processo analítico foi possível constituir seis momentos que representam as perspectivas desses docentes em relação ao processo de elaboração e aplicação da oficina interdisciplinar de ensino: Momento 1 – Foi aquele relacionado à motivação e ao interesse dos professores em vivenciar uma prática interdisciplinar; Momento 2 – Relatos em que os professores trazem suas percepções a respeito da interdisciplinaridade; Momento 3 – Está relacionado ao planejamento da oficina; Momento 4 – Diz respeito aos comentários relativos à aplicação da oficina; Momento 5 – Nele temos as evidências de reflexões dos professores sobre a ação vivenciada; Momento 6 – Nele foram acomodadas as percepções dos estudantes a respeito da oficina de ensino de que participaram.
CONSIDERAÇÕES SOBRE CONTEXTUALIZAÇÃO E INTERDISCIPLINARIDADE NA ABORDAGEM DA MICROBIOLOGIA NO NOVO EXAME NACIONAL DO ENSINO MÉDIO (ENEM)
Authors: Sodré Neto Luiz , Medeiros Ariane Dantas de
Published: August 2018

O presente trabalho objetivou analisar aspectos de contextualização e interdisciplinaridade nas questões do Exame Nacional do Ensino Médio (ENEM) envolvendo conhecimentos da Microbiologia, desde 2009, ano de reformulação do exame, até o ano de 2015. Para a obtenção dos dados utilizaram-se todas as provas do exame aplicadas neste período de 07 anos, das quais foram selecionadas as questões com abordagens do tema alvo de acordo com aspectos de linguagem, contextualização, conhecimentos abordados e conhecimentos exigidos. Foram identificadas e avaliadas 36 questões que apresentaram pelo menos um conceito sobre Microbiologia relevante para a interpretação e consequentemente para a resolução das situações-problema. Contextualização e interdisciplinaridade não estiveram presentes em todas as questões analisadas, descumprindo parte das orientações dispostas nos documentos oficiais da educação no Brasil, embora, quando bem estruturadas e contextualizadas, as questões de Ciências da Natureza e suas Tecnologias (CNT) envolvendo a Microbiologia tenham exigido uma postura crítica para a resolução. Esta exigência é o que se espera do exame, já que ele interfere em mudanças no cenário educacional, inclusive na prática docente e no currículo escolar.
The Importance of Task Complexity When Rewarding Nonfinancial Performance
Authors: Berger Leslie
Published: August 2018

In this study, I investigate whether the effectiveness of rewarding performance of nonfinancial measures varies across levels of task complexity. I use a multi-period experiment where participants are assigned a highly or moderately complex task and an incentive contract where only financial measures or both financial and nonfinancial measures are rewarded. I find that in a moderately complex task, individuals perform better when only the financial measures are rewarded in the incentive contract. However, in a highly complex task, individuals perform better when both financial and nonfinancial measures are rewarded. Collectively, the results identify task complexity as an important task characteristic that impacts the effectiveness of incentives on nonfinancial measures of performance.

The paper deals with the problem of multidisciplinary knowledge in cultural studies. Culture is the most important category of philosophy that is of high interest today due to its general methodological value, the interests of natural scientific and social knowledge, the emphasis on theory of sciences and knowledge synthesis, the analysis of cultural knowledge in relation to the shift in understanding the scientific and rational nature. The development of specific branches of cultural knowledge is of great social and economic, general scientific and humanistic value. In recent decades, it has become the focus of society’s attention. Philosophy, sociology and other humanities and social sciences play an essential role when understanding and developing current methodological and worldview issues of cultural knowledge, i.e. multidisciplinary scientific knowledge is an area of concern. It is referred to studying the methodological aspects of this set of sciences and understanding the relationship between different forms of knowledge.
