The “Journey” of Doctoral Study in Applied Psychology: Lived Experiences of Students in Counseling, Clinical, and School Psychology
Authors: Frydman Jason , Cheung Linda , Ponterotto Joseph
Published: April 2021

A qualitative methodology was adopted to explore the lived experiences of doctoral level students in applied psychology. A total of 15 students ranging in age from 24 to 43, who were at varying levels of their doctoral education, participated in individual semi-structured interviews exploring themes related to influences for the pursuit of graduate study, experiences in their program of study, and general reflections of the graduate school journey. All interviews were conducted from a constructivist-interpretivist model, transcribed verbatim, and analyzed using a phenomenological coding approach (Creswell, 2012; Moustakas, 1994). Emergent broad themes included antecedents leading to graduate study, current experience of doctoral education, and reflections on the doctoral experience. Implications for future research are discussed and recommendations for graduate programs based on findings are provided.
Exploring Counselors’ Personal Guiding Theories: A Qualitative Study in Portraiture
Authors: Barth Amy , Rheineck Jane , Merino Carrie
Published: April 2021

A personal guiding theory of counseling is an important component of professional identity development for counselors. We utilized the qualitative methodology of portraiture to explore how professional counselors understand their own personal guiding theories of counseling. Three research portraits are shared that demonstrate how participants use the counseling relationship as the means to incorporate their personal guiding theories into their work with clients. Implications for counselors and counselor educators and future research are presented.
Anxiety Symptoms and Sleep Disturbance in Veterans with Posttraumatic Stress Disorder: The Impact of Receiving and Training a Service Dog
Authors: Scotland-Coogan Diane
Published: April 2021

The impact of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) on our combat veterans and their families is extensive. Symptoms of anxiety and the effects of sleep disturbance have a negative impact on daily functioning (Wright et al., 2011). The presence of a dog has demonstrated a reduction in anxiety symptoms, which may have a positive influence on improved sleep (Shearer, Hunt, Chowdhury, & Nicol, 2016). The Veterans Administration (VA) has been using canines to assist combat veterans in reintegrating into civilian life, and most currently, as a part of psychological therapy (Rubenstein, 2012). This research examined the impact on combat veterans with PTSD of receiving and training a service dog using Stake’s (2006) collective case study model. Interviews were conducted with fifteen combat veterans diagnosed with PTSD participating in a 14-week program for receiving and training their own service dog. The goal of the study was to explore the veterans’ experience of the training program, as well as determine any effect on their PTSD symptoms. Symptom severity decreases were reported, which had the residual effects of decreased anxiety symptoms, sleep disturbance, and nightmares.

“Be authentic”: Authenticity Norms in German Politics and Self-Idealizations of Members of the Bundestag
Authors: Geimer Alexander , Amling Steffen
Published: April 2021

This contribution goes back to a study of the formative power of identity norms in professional fields of occupation (fine arts and politics). In this article, we focus on the understanding of identity norms that members of the German Bundestag have to meet and/or to cope with. Thus, our research question is which demands professional politicians encounter and which ways of dealing with them are established. Operating at the intersection of governmentality studies, subjectivation analysis and qualitative inquiry, and based on narrative interviews with MPs, this paper demonstrates how in the field of German politics (at federal level) the MPs orientate their professional praxis towards the identity norm of an authentic self and conform to the expectation of a contradiction-free relationship between professional and private lives. In the process, the MPs develop idealizations of their selves in which aspects of their habitus become reflexive. We especially discuss these results against the backdrop of the emergence of modern parliaments and, methodologically, regarding the relation between habitual-implicit and reflexive-explicit structures of knowledge which are especially relevant in subjectivation analysis.

Authors: Koohestani Hamid Reza , Soltani Arabshahi Seyed Kamran , Ahmadi Fazlollah , Baghcheghi Nayereh
Published: April 2021

The role of mobile devices in learning processes is growing rapidly and it is imperative to assess the effect of this technology. This paper explores the experience of healthcare professional students with regard to the educational impacts of mobile learning. We conducted a qualitative study using a conventional qualitative content analysis based on Graneheim and Lundman (2004) method to collect and analyze the experiences of 23 healthcare professional students. Two themes, each with subthemes, emerged from the findings: (1) perceived benefit in learning process, and (2) reflective self-assessment. The results revealed that mobile learning has a positive impact on both the process and the outcome of learning in healthcare professional students. Therefore, creating a supportive condition to promote mobile learning is recommended.
Amputee Perspectives of Virtual Patient Education
Authors: Winkler Sandra , Schlesinger Michelle , Alice Krueger , Ludwig Ann
Published: April 2021

Amputees have expressed the need for more information on the recovery path that follows amputation. Inclusion of education in the amputation rehabilitation process empowers amputees to make decisions about their options and form realistic expectations. Virtual worlds are effective as healthcare support communities because they provide both synchronous and asynchrous communication, voice enabled technology, file sharing and more, enhanced by immersion in a visually stimulating and interactive 3-D environment. The objective of this research was to discover how a virtual world could be used to address amputees’ educational needs. A focus group of three lower limb amputees ages ranging from 39 to 82 was convened. Data were analyzed qualitatively using the thematic analysis procedure. Four themes emerged: Challenges amputees face, Getting out and doing things, Becoming empowered, and What’s next for the virtual world. The challenges voiced set an important context. While we anticipated that amputees would want both education and support in a virtual world environment, we learned that support is not only part of education but that both are empowering. Participation in the virtual world facilitated getting out and about and getting moving.
Does She Want You to Open the Door? New Realities for Traditional Gendered Sexuality
Authors: Towne Angela , Ruggles Elliot , Crane Betsy , Root Meghan
Published: April 2021

In contemporary United States culture, young people may face contradictory gender-related pressures. Changing gender norms resulting from social movements in the latter half of the twentieth century (e.g., sexual revolution, feminism) collide with traditional expectations, such as female virginity until marriage. This study used cross-gender focus groups to examine young people’s gendered experiences in the wake of social change. Data were collected with 35 millennials (ages 18-27) in Pennsylvania who self-identified as having traditional views about relationships and sexuality. Participants articulated current traditional expectations, which included educational and career responsibilities for women as well as behavioral expectations that participants associated with hyper-masculinity. Such expectations were often paradoxical and frequently contrasted with lived experiences. Participants coped with conflicting pressures by keeping secrets and leading double lives. These findings may help educators and clinicians recognize the complex social reality millennials face and assist them in balancing conflicting pressures.
Top-Down English Policy and Bottom-Up Teacher Take: An Interview-Based Insight from the Balochistan Province of Pakistan
Authors: Channa Liaquat , Panezai Sania
Published: April 2021

Provinces in Pakistan have initiated teaching English as a compulsory subject in Grade 1 onwards in their government schools by following the latest National Education Policy (NEP) of 2009. The policy states that the measure shall develop the students’ English proficiency that would later help them compete. In this study we intended to understand whether the policy was implemented successfully in the province of Balochistan. By drawing upon the language planning framework proposed by Kaplan, Baldauf, and Kamwangamalu (2011) and applying convenient sampling technique, the researchers conducted thirty-one semi-structured interviews with urban and rural male and female teachers who teach in Grades 1 to 5. We found that issues such as limited teaching time for the English subject, lack of qualified teachers, inappropriate English textbooks, teachers’ customary teaching methodology, paucity of resources, and gap between policymakers and practitioners impacted the policy. The study offers recommendations that could help the Pakistani policymakers to align the policy with practice, research, and the teachers’ voices in order to achieve the desired outcomes.
An Autoethnographic Narrative of the Relation between Sexuality and University in Post-Revolutionary Iran
Authors: Taghavian Nassereddinali
Published: April 2021

The main question that is addressed in this presentation is how we can interpret the situation of sexual relations in the context of higher education in Iran. The article is formed as an autoethnography, focusing on the relationship between sexuality and university in post-revolutionary Iran. Data are gathered from my own lived experiences at university both as a student and as a lecturer during about 25 years of academic life and interpreted by the technique of systematic introspection. I explore specific problems regarding sexuality at Iranian universities, such as sexual harassment and the relationship between male university professors and their female students. I conclude with a set of questions that require further investigations. The whole article, however, can be regarded as the process of the transformation from a sexually ignorant typical Iranian male student to a more or less gender-sensitive Iranian male university professor.
A Sikh Boy’s Exclusion in Australian School: A Phenomenological Study of Parent’s Response
Authors: Singh Kanwarjeet , Southcott Jane
Published: April 2021

Diasporic relocation and resettlement ideally generate new experiences for diasporic communities and their host societies. At times, host societies (in general) and education (in concomitance) could remain impervious towards the unique cultural practices of diasporic communities, fostering a cultural gap. Such gaps may result in conflicts that impact social engagement, including education, posing cultural and educational challenges for diasporic people. Towards realisation of social justice and whilst balancing diversity, contemporary multi-cultural Australian society and educational institutions may cultivate the enactment of exclusion for students with unique diasporic cultural backgrounds. Hence, the search for equity within Australian education may remain elusive. Considering the responses of two diasporic Sikh parents faced by potential exclusion of their child in a Melbourne suburban school due to wearing a Patka (turban for young Sikh boys), this qualitative study provides a phenomenological exploration of their experiences.
The Capstone Journey: Exploring Design, Delivery and Evaluation in an Undergraduate Management Discipline Context
Authors: Stewart Heather , Houghton Luke , Burns Clare
Published: April 2021

The focus of this paper is the development of a capstone management course and the application of educational action research through continual learning. In this article, we use the continual learning frame of plan, do, study, and act to underpin an educational action research design on the development of a capstone management course. As part of an Active Learning Trial, the development of the capstone experience has been captured in the embodiment of that experience. Our aim is to guide other academics in developing their own capstone course, particularly, within management with extension into other disciplines. Through continual improvement, we stress the importance of integrating the primary voice of the students, to emphasize the active learning and to optimize a meaningful experience in connecting theory to practice – the key to the capstone experience. Examples of how to gain feedback and integrate classroom improvements are given. To do this we present two cycles where we applied and practiced continual learning and educational action research to understand and evoke improvements within the course. These changes are evidenced through aggregated student feedback.
The Experience of Co-Teaching for Emergent Arabic-English Literacy
Authors: Dillon Anna , Gallagher Kay
Published: April 2021

In this paper we explore teachers’ experiences of co-teaching within a new bilingual (Arabic/ English) model in public Kindergarten schools in the United Arab Emirates. The main objective was to understand teachers’ experiences with intercultural teaching for biliteracy in this context. We interviewed six pairs of co-teachers. These co-teachers represent six of the nationalities of teachers working in public Kindergartens in Abu Dhabi, thereby representing a cross-section of the cultural context of teaching in the reformed public schools. The data highlight teachers’ varied co-teaching practices and point to aspects such as classroom management and translanguaging as aspects of classroom practice which are enhanced by co-teaching. Teachers’ experience of co-teaching and well-formed co-teaching relationships can contribute to the development of sound pedagogical practices while a lack of administrative support can create conditions which are not conducive to co-teaching. The data also show that supportive bilingual scaffolding and flexible translanguaging are seen as effective components of co-teaching to support emergent biliteracy.
“I Almost Quit”: Exploring the Prevalence of the Ferguson Effect in Two Small Sized Law Enforcement Agencies in Rural Southcentral Virginia
Authors: Adams Joshua
Published: April 2021

Recent negatively publicized police-citizen interactions in the media, followed by a subsequent de-policing of police in the United States, has been named the Ferguson Effect. The Ferguson Effect has been explored by prominent scholars in the criminal justice community; however, little is known about how police officers in small rural police agencies perceive the Ferguson Effect. The purpose of this qualitative phenomenological study was to explore the perceptions and lived experiences of police officers regarding the Ferguson Effect in small rural police agencies, as well as police officers’ perceptions of their own organizational justice. Organizational justice theory was utilized as the theoretical lens for this study. Research questions focused on exploring police officers’ perceptions, attitudes, and experiences of the Ferguson Effect phenomenon and willingness to partner with the community. Purposeful sampling was utilized and semi structured interviews were conducted of nine active sworn law enforcement personnel in southcentral Virginia. Data were analyzed through in vivo coding, pattern coding, and structural analysis utilizing NVivo 11 Pro. Themes included: (a) racial division, (b) rush to judgment, and (c) steadfast leadership. Findings indicated participants demanded clear and fair policies and procedures from leadership, increased effort of transparency in policing, feelings of racial tension, and the need to regain community trust post-Ferguson.
Conceptualizing Discursive Analysis as a Culturally Contextualized Activity
Authors: Adjei Stephen
Published: April 2021

Discursive psychology recognizes the primacy of the social and relational nature of human life. Research participants whose discourses (empirical data) we analyze do not exist independent of material and social world. In this paper, I attempt to develop an understanding of discursive analysis of social and psychological phenomena as a culturally contextualized activity in which discursive researchers analyze and interpret participants’ discourses in the light of the cultural context in which the discourses are embedded. First, I provide a brief background to discursive psychology. Second, I discuss the cultural embeddedness of discursive analysis. I then conceptualize discursive data analysis as a culturally contextualized enterprise by drawing upon my own reflexive accounts on gender-based violence research to illustrate how discursive analysts can bring together an analysis of in-the-moment performative accounting with an understanding of the cultural context in which this accounting is embedded. I argue for and foreground research participants’ lived experiences and the embodied socio-cultural meanings as origins of the consciousness and social behavior of people with whom and about whom psychological research is conducted. I conclude that data analysis is not and cannot be an innocent activity; it involves active thinking through the cultural lens of both the researcher and the researched.
Learning How to Write Successfully from Academic Writers
Authors: Roulston Kathryn
Published: April 2021

There are numerous books on writing from academic writers, as well as fiction and non-fiction writers. For academic writers who may have had minimal training in writing, these sorts of books provide useful ideas for how to develop the habits of mind to write productively, as well as the skills in crafting their writing for their audiences. Helen Sword's book, Air & Light & Time & Space: How Successful Academics Write is a trade book devoted to the task of informing readers about how successful academic writers work. Sword masterfully integrates findings from her large study of academic writing to support her thesis that to different degrees, successful academic writers share four sets of habits: those of behavioral, artisanal, social, and emotional habits. Beyond this, there are few commonalities to do with how successful academic writers are prepared and how they write. Sword's book elucidates how any academic writer might organize his or her writing life to be successful.
A “Highdeeply” Review of Johnny Saldaña’s Thinking Qualitatively: Methods of Mind
Authors: Nowakowski Alexandra
Published: April 2021

More than a book about conducting qualitative research, Johnny Saldaña in Thinking Qualitatively: Methods of Mind asks readers to think “highdeeply,” so they organize their thinking about how to live their best lives through the process of qualitative inquiry. To do so, Saldaña transforms the concept of person-centered qualitative inquiry into a concrete entity with structured exercises and practical examples. Saldaña contributions with this work all center on the process of conscious qualitative reflection as a tool for synthetic understanding of the world around us.
Sustaining Learning about Qualitative Inquiry: A Book Review on The Craft of Qualitative Research - A Handbook
Authors: Majid Umair
Published: April 2021

There are only a handful of articles, books, tools, and resources that are truly accessible to the novice qualitative investigator. The literature contains reams of resources that aid researchers to launch the qualitative learning process. However, there are few opportunities to develop the depth, prowess, and creativity needed to sustain lifelong learning. The Craft of Qualitative Research: A Handbook by Kleinknecht, van den Scott, and Sanders is one resource that assists researchers to achieve this objective. Conceptualized as a “handbook,” this book is meant to be used throughout research projects and professional careers. The practice of qualitative inquiry serves as the focal point for all discussions, and this book creates space and opportunities for learners to acquire experiential knowledge through the vicarious experiences of authors. The vividness with which the cases are presented renders a strong motivation in readers to improve how they conduct qualitative inquiry. Although two minor suggestions would have made this book more useful in the field, this book offers important insight into uncommon or unheard methodological topics that investigators may face.
Magie der Zahlen: Achoring und Interferenzen
Authors: Markus Spiwoks , Zulia Gubaydullina
Published: April 2021

Die vorliegende Studie wendet sich der Frage zu, ob der Ankereffekt robust gegenüber Interferenzen ist. Werden viele neue Informationen in unmittelbarer Abfolge präsentiert, dann ist das menschliche Auffassungsvermögen schnell überfordert. Es kommt zu einer Überlagerung oder Löschung vieler der neuen Informationen. Ob diese Interferenzen auch zu einer erheblichen Reduzierung des Ankereffektes beitragen können, ist die Fragestellung, die hier im Rahmen eines experimentellen Ansatzes überprüft wird. Dabei zeigt sich, dass der Zahlenwert des Ankers sich der Wirkung von Interferenzen entzieht. Der Ankereffekt ist offensichtlich robust gegenüber Interferenzen.
Der Beitrag der Neoklassik zur ökonomischen Rechtfertigung einer eigenständigen Verbraucherpolitik
Authors: Döring Thomas
Published: April 2021

Um den Bedarf für verbraucherpolitische Maßnahmen ökonomisch zu begründen, bedient man sich oft anderen Ansätzen als der Neoklassik. Dieser Aspekt bedarf hinsichtlich seiner verbraucherpolitischen Implikationen einer differenzierteren Betrachtung. So finden sich auch im neoklassischen Theorierahmen Hinweise darauf, dass es nicht allein mögliche Wettbewerbsprobleme sind, die zu einer Beeinträchtigung der Interessen der Verbraucher führen. Vielmehr lassen sich unter Bezug auf die wesentlichen Bestimmungsfaktoren und Merkmale des Nachfrageverhaltens auf Güter- und Dienstleistungsmärkten die neoklassische Kategorisierung unterschiedlicher Güterarten ebenso wie die Analyse des Auftretens von externen Effekten bei Produktion und Konsum verschiedene Anknüpfungspunkte für verbraucherpolitische Maßnahmen jenseits der reinen Wettbewerbspolitik benennen. Die Hervorhebung von allein wettbewerbspolitischen Maßnahmen zum Schutz des Verbrauchers kann demgegenüber zum einen – wie bereits angedeutet – auf das neoklassische Verhaltensmodell in Gestalt des Homo oeconomicus und daraus sich ableitende verbraucherpolitische Leitbilder zurückgeführt werden. Zum anderen korrespondiert die Betonung der Wettbewerbspolitik aber auch mit den Annahmen und Folgerungen der Allgemeinen Gleichgewichtstheorie als einem weiteren zentralen Bestandteil des neoklassischen Ansatzes. Dieser Beitrag schließt mit einer Auflistung von Kritikpunkten an der neoklassischen Theorie des Konsumentenverhaltens, die für eine eigenständige Verbraucherpolitik von hohem Stellenwert sind, die im Rahmen dieses Ansatzes jedoch keine angemessene Berücksichtigung finden.
Das Unbekannte als Lösungsstrategie, Designmethodologische Betrachtung von Prozessen in Richtung einer nachhaltigen Entwicklung
Authors: Rehn Jonas
Published: April 2021

Herausforderungen, wie sie mit den Sustainable Development Goals beschrieben werden, erfordern häufig Systeminnovationen, die eine partizipative und transdisziplinäre Zusammenarbeit verschiedener Akteure aus Wirtschaft, Politik und Zivilgesellschaft beinhalten. Eine Schwierigkeit stellt in einem solchen Innovationsprozess das Fehlen einer prozessdefinierenden Zielsetzung dar. Meist handelt es sich hierbei um „(super) wicked problems“, zu denen es auf Grund von komplexen Strukturen und Zielkonflikten bislang keine expliziten Umsetzungskonzepte gibt. Daher muss am Anfang dieses gemeinsamen Prozesses allen Beteiligten unklar sein, welche Gestalt die angestrebte Lösung zur Erreichung des jeweiligen SDG hat. Diese Spannung des Ungewissen auszuhalten und als Ressource zu nutzen, stellt ein zentrales Prinzip vieler Designdisziplinen und Methodiken dar. Strategien der Designmethodologie nutzen daher ausreichend Raum für kreative Unschärfen, um das Unbekannte zu erschließen. So bieten sie ein nützliches Methodenrepertoire und einen strategischen Ansatzpunkt für das Erreichen der SDG.
Öffentlich-rechtliche Fragestellungen in Prosumptions-Modellen
Authors: Führ Martin
Published: April 2021

Prosumptionsmodelle im Bereich Ernährung und Bekleidung bieten Potential für eine Nachhaltige Entwicklung. Dabei lässt sich das klassische Verhältnis zwischen Anbietern und Konsumierenden verändern. Statt – eher passiver – Nachfrage, geht es um aktive Beiträge der Konsumenten, die sich damit auf den Weg hin zu „Prosumern“ machen. Aus öffentlich-rechtlicher Sicht geht damit eine Rollenverschiebung einher, die sich auch in der daran geknüpften „Verantwortungs-Konstellation“ niederschlägt: Wer aktiv in das Austausch-Verhältnis eintritt, den treffen auch die damit verbundenen Pflichten. Dies gilt grundsätzlich für alle Rollenverschiebungen im vorgenannten Sinne, also etwa auch für den Bereich der Bekleidung. Allerdings sind die damit einhergehenden Risiken für die Kunden (im Sinne einer Gefährdung von Leben und Gesundheit) in der Regel deutlich geringer als bei der Vermarktung von Lebensmitteln. Verunreinigungen, seien sie herstellungsbedingt oder durch nachträgliche Kontamination mit Mikro-Organismen (Bakterien, Pilze etc.) hervorgerufen, können zu Gesundheitsgefährdungen führen. Diese Risiko-Konstellation hat den Staat veranlasst, ein vergleichsweise dichtes Geflecht an öffentlich-rechtlichen Vorgaben zu etablieren, die relevant sind sowohl für (Food-) Sharing-Ansätze als auch für Modelle der solidarischen Landwirtschaft (SoLaWi). Aus öffentlich-rechtlicher Perspektive stellen sich im Bereich der beiden vorgenannten Fallbeispiele aus dem Bereich der Lebensmittelwirtschaft vor allem Fragen im Zusammenhang mit den einzuhaltenden Hygiene-Anforderungen. In der Praxis gab es hier auch bereits Auseinandersetzungen mit den zuständigen Behörden. Diese Stellungnahme konzentriert sich daher auf die damit zusammenhängenden Fragen.

Regulatory experiments can be useful to guide complex transitions in the field of sustainable development. They help to understand the effects of policies and regulations and offer insights into the dynamics of social processes. Empirical studies analyzing heterogeneous samples of regulatory experiments are missing. This paper uses a qualitative content analysis to examine 26 international cases of regulatory experiments in the field of sustainable development. The results show the diversity of existing regulatory experiments in terms of their design. We use the results to formulate implications on how to use regulatory experiments that facilitate learning processes.
Die Tragik der Algorithm Aversion
Authors: Filiz Ibrahim , Judek Jan René , Lorenz Marco , Spiwoks Markus
Published: April 2021

Algorithmen bewältigen viele Aufgaben bereits zuverlässiger als menschliche Experten. Trotzdem zeigen einige Wirtschaftssubjekte eine ablehnende Haltung gegenüber Algorithmen (Algorithm Aversion). In manchen Entscheidungssituationen kann ein Fehler schwerwiegende Konsequenzen haben, in anderen Entscheidungssituationen nicht. Wir untersuchen im Rahmen eines Framing-Experimentes den Zusammenhang zwischen der Tragweite der Entscheidungssituation einerseits und der Häufigkeit der Algorithm Aversion andererseits. Dabei zeigt sich, dass die Algorithm Aversion umso häufiger auftritt, je gravierender die möglichen Konsequenzen einer Entscheidung sind. Gerade bei besonders wichtigen Entscheidungen führt somit die Algorithm Aversion zu einer Reduzierung der Erfolgswahrscheinlichkeit. Das kann man als die Tragik der Algorithm Aversion bezeichnen.

Non-uniform Feeding Network for a Dual Circularly Polarized 16×16 Ku-Band Antenna Array for On-Move Satellite Communication
Authors: Hassan Walaa , Ibrahim Khalid , Abdallah Esmat , Attiya Ahmed
Published: April 2021

This paper presents analysis and design of a dual circularly polarized 16×16 Ku band antenna array with emphasis on its feeding network. The proposed antenna is designed for on-move satellite communication system where the radiation pattern and the side-lobe level should meet the ITU standards to avoid interference with other satellite systems. This requirement is obtained by using non-uniform feeding distribution network. In addition, dual circular polarization operation requires sequential feeding networks with appropriate phase shift sequences. The proposed antenna is divided into 16 sub-cells of 4×4 radiating elements. The elements inside the sub-cell are fed by uniform dual sequential feeding networks. These sub-cells are connected together via two non-uniform feeding networks on a single layer in the shape of two interlaced fork configurations. In addition, cascaded power dividers are used to achieve the required
low power division ratios between some of the sub-cells according to the required feeding distribution. These modifications simplify the fabrication process of the
proposed antenna structure and reduce the required layers while satisfying the required radiation parameters.

Published: April 2021

A compact three order 5G low frequency band Hairpin Bandpass Filter (HPBF) is analyzed, designed and fabricated in this paper. The designed filter operates at 5G frequency range (5.975-7.125 GHz). 17.76% compactness in each λ/2 uniform transmission line (UTL) resonator of the filter is achieved by applying Non-Uniform Transmission Lines (NTLs) theory. This compactness will make modern wireless transmitter and receiver designs more compatible. Study on the best reduction size percentage and suitable constraints to design the required NTL resonator is highlighted in this paper. Six samples with different size reductions percentage are fabricated and measured. The simulation is carried out in this study uses High Frequency Structure
Simulator (HFSS) software and Computer Simulation Technology (CST) software. The simulated results for UTL HPBF and NTL HPBF with the six cases are verified with measurement. For the best size reduction percentage design, the measured results demonstrated that the 6.55 GHz NTL and UTL HPBF show good impedance matching within the unsilenced 5G frequency band.
Efficient Electromagnetic Analysis of a Dispersive Head Model Due to Smart Glasses Embedded Antennas at Wi-Fi and 5G Frequencies
Authors: Kaburcuk Fatih , Elsherbeni Atef
Published: April 2021

Numerical study of electromagnetic interaction between an adjacent antenna and a human head model requires long computation time and large computer memory. In this paper, two speeding up techniques for a dispersive algorithm based on finite-difference time-domain method are used to reduce the required computation time and computer memory. In order to evaluate the validity of these two speeding up techniques, specific absorption rate (SAR) and temperature rise distributions in a dispersive human head model due to radiation from an antenna integrated into a pair of smart glasses are investigated. The antenna integrated into the pair of smart glasses have wireless connectivity at 2.4 GHz and 5th generation (5G) cellular connectivity at 4.9 GHz. Two different positions for the antenna integrated into the frame are considered in this investigation. These techniques provide remarkable reduction in computation time and computer memory.

Published: April 2021

Context: Psychological capital is among new study aspects of interest to researchers of human capital, organizational behavior and psychology. On the other hand, Organizational Citizenship Behavior (OCB) has been a focused subject by researchers due to increasing empirical evidence of OCB's impact on individual and organizational performance. Aim: This study aimed to investigate the relationship between psychological capital and organizational citizenship behavior among staff nurses.

Methods: Design: A descriptive correlational design was used to conduct this study at Obstetrics and Gynecological Hospital on one hundred and nine nursing staff. Data collection tools include psychological capital Scale and organizational citizenship behavior scale. Results: The present study showed that the mean dimensions of self-efficacy 3.60±0.48 and optimism 3.25±0.45 had the highest and the lowest mean, respectively, of psychological capital. The results revealed that as for the dimensions of organizational citizenship behavior, the dimension of altruism (4.06±0. 62) while Civic virtue (civilized behavior had the lowest mean (3.80±0.52) and shows that the total mean score of organizational Citizenship Behavior were 3.91±0.41.

Conclusions: There is a highly statistically significant positive correlation between total staff nurses' perspectives regarding psychological capital and their total organizational citizenship behavior. The study recommended that hospital administrators should promote organizational citizenship behavior and, consequently, psychological capital by involving employees in decisions, consult with them, and intervention programs for nurses should be carried out to enhance their level of psychological capital.
Sevme Sanatı Olarak Felsefe
Authors: MOLACI Melike
Published: April 2021

Bilgeliğin sözle değil eylemle edinildiğini düşünen Stoacılar, felsefeyi yaşama sanatı olarak tanımlarlar. Stoacı bilgenin doğaya uygun eylemleriyle bir sanat eserine dönüştürdüğü yaşamı, dingin ve çetin bir ruhu gerektirir. Yanılgılardan ve tutkulardan uzak bilgece yaşamın bir sanat eseri olarak düşünülmesi ilk bakışta mümkün görünmeyebilir. Günümüz ayrımlarıyla yaklaşıldığında Stoa felsefesinde estetik yaşantının özerk olmadığı ve estetiğin müstakil bir disiplin olarak kuramsallaştırılmadığı da rahatlıkla söylenebilir. Bununla birlikte güncel ayrımlar ve kavramlarla Antikçağ kuramlarına yaklaşmak, kestirme ve yanlış sonuçlara neden olabilir. Bu tehlikenin bertaraf edilebilmesi ve yaşama sanatının tam da Stoacıların iddia ettiği gibi estetik ve politik bir yaşama işaret ettiğinin temellendirilebilmesi için ilk kaynaklara, erken dönem Stoacı filozoflara dönülmelidir.

Estetik, etik ve politik bir yaşamın Stoacı yaşama sanatında içerildiği iddiasında olan bu çalışmada, felsefeyle yakından ilişkili olan “sevme sanatı”na odaklanılmaktadır. Çünkü Stoacı yaşama sanatı -halen rağbet görmesine rağmen-, çağdaş yazarların kapsamlı incelemelerine konu; özgün kuramlarına da ilham olan “eski” bir meseledir. Oysa tutkusuz bilgenin sevme sanatındaki ustalığı, oldukça dikkat çekici özellikleri açığa çıkarır ve çeşitli olanakları tartışmayı sağlar. Bu nedenle bu yazıda erken dönem Stoa felsefesinin sevme sanatı olarak adlandırdığı ilişki biçimi ile bu sanatın yetkinliği olan sevme erdemi ele alınmakta; bunlar aracılığıyla Stoacıların etik, estetik ve politik bir yaşamı bir arada nasıl düşünebildikleri incelenmektedir.

Las redes sociales se han convertido en un fenómeno irreversible y de creciente uso entre niños y adolescentes. Esta utilización continuada puede conducir a un uso excesivo, que propicia el aumento del sedentarismo, un gran problema de salud pública. Por lo tanto, el objetivo de este estudio es analizar las diferencias por sexo y grado escolar al respecto de la actividad física y el uso de redes sociales en estudiantes de secundaria. La muestra estuvo conformada por 342 estudiantes de secundaria, 53.5% mujeres y 46.5% hombres (M= 13.39; DE = 0.84) de Nuevo León. Se aplicaron dos instrumentos, Usos y Gratificaciones de redes sociales en adolescentes mexicanos, e IPAQ-C. El 48% de los estudiantes tiene bajo nivel de actividad física; y, aunque la intensidad se incrementa en los alumnos de mayor edad, disminuye la frecuencia en su práctica a medida del avance escolar. Se registraron diferencias significativas en la conexión a redes sociales, red favorita, dispositivo usado (p < .01) en relación con el grado escolar; el 95.3% tiene conexión a redes sociales, donde el 47.4% manifiesta tener acceso a cualquier hora del día sin control parental, siendo los chicos y chicas del tercer grado quienes más tiempo pasan en esta actividad. Las redes más populares fueron YouTube y Facebook.
Abstract.  Social networks have become an irreversible and increasingly popular phenomenon among children and adolescents. This continued use can lead to excessive use, which is conducive to an increase in sedentary lifestyles, a major public health problem. Therefore, the aim of this study is to analyze the differences by sex and school grade regarding physical activity and the use of social networks in high school students. The sample consisted of 342 high school students, 53.5% female and 46.5% male (M= 13.39; SD = 0.84) from Nuevo León. Two instruments, Uses and Gratifications of social networks in Mexican adolescents, and IPAQ-C, were applied. Forty-eight percent of the students have a low level of physical activity; and although the intensity increases in older students, the frequency of physical activity decreases as school progresses. Significant differences were recorded in the connection to social networks, favorite network, device used (p < .01) in relation to school grade; 95.3% have a connection to social networks, where 47.4% state having access at any time of the day without parental control, with boys and girls in the third grade spending more time on this activity. The most popular networks were YouTube and Facebook.

A study about the influence of geometry simplification on the swirling flow of a cyclone was performed by comparing CFD results with experimental data. The numerical results were obtained by solving the mass and momentum equations with the Reynolds Stress Model (RSM) for the turbulence closure. On other hand, the experimental data were obtained in the literature, the authors used the Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) technique to measure the velocity fields and a differential manometer to measure the pressure drop. In this work, different test facility geometries configurations were simulated: the complete test facility; and others with some simplifications downstream and upstream of the cyclone. The boundary condition for both numerical and experimental analysis was performed with inlet velocity in 10.5 and 12.25 m/s. Results showed a decrease in the gas vortex velocity in the cyclone center when simplifications in the test facility geometry are made. These bring significant consequences in the performance parameters, like almost 20% in the pressure drop values.

The presents study evaluates the performance of a hypothetical 1-hectare solar photovoltaic (PV) plant located in the Baía Azul Beach, in Benguela, Angola. The first year performance of the plant composed by 2,784 DuoMax 365 PV modules from Trina Solar Company was evaluated by means of the VelaSolaris Polysum software package. The total surface area of the PV modules was of 5,456.64 m2. The annual alternate current electricity production was of 1,511.70 MWh allowing a total of 710.47 tCO2 of CO2 emissions reduction and a performance ratio of 72.8 %. The annual average energy and exergy efficiencies of the PV system were respectively of of 14.3 % and 14.7 %.
PIBID/ESPANHOL: A LEITURA LITERÁRIA, A CRIATIVIDADE E O ENSINO DE ELEC

Published: April 2021

O presente trabalho visa a apresentar e discutir os resultados de uma das práticas realizadas no ensino da leitura literária nas aulas de língua estrangeira na educação infantil desenvolvidas no Pibid Espanhol/2018. Para isso, decidiu-se expor de forma crítica uma das ações desenvolvidas com alunos do grupo 4 da escola CEI Criarte/Ufes por uma bolsista integrante do Pibid. Entendemos que as literaturas são fundamentais para a aprendizagem de línguas uma vez que refletem os modos de vida dos povos que as produzem, oferecem repertório para a compreensão do mundo que nos rodeia e também contribuem para a formação emotiva e cidadã do indivíduo. Desse modo, o nosso objetivo é promover a reflexão sobre o ensino lúdico e contextualizado das literaturas estrangeiras nas aulas de línguas na educação infantil. Destacamos, assim, o ensino mais significativo, a familiarização com a cultura do outro e da sua própria, bem como o desenvolvimento da criatividade e da imaginação como resultados observados. Como referencial teórico, utilizamos Cameron (2001), Almeida Filho (1993) e Schütz (2008) sobre o ensino de língua estrangeira a crianças; Ortega e Clímaco (2018) sobre o ensino de literaturas hispânicas; Colomer (2017) sobre a leitura literária e Borges e Mozzer (2008) sobre a criatividade.

O trabalho a seguir traz como tema de estudo o Programa Residência Pedagógica de Língua Inglesa. Objetivamos realizar uma análise autorreflexiva dos relatórios de residência, evidenciando as contribuições da escrita reflexiva desenvolvida durante o programa e das ações oriundas deste para a formação docente. É uma pesquisa documental de cunho qualitativo, cujo estudo está inserido no campo da Linguística Aplicada. Como resultado, concluímos que a escrita reflexiva no contexto da Residência Pedagógica de Língua Inglesa, de fato tem grande relevância na formação docente. Em suma, a partir da autorreflexão pude ampliar minha visão sobre a importância de ações voltadas para a formação de professores, bem como pude aprimorar minhas habilidades como futura professora de Língua Inglesa.

Este trabalho descreve uma das ações desenvolvidas no Pibid (Programa Institucional de Iniciação à Docência) do subprojeto Letras Português da Ufes, durante o segundo semestre de 2019, pelos pibidianos Xxxxxxxxxxxx e Xxxxxxxxxxxx, em uma turma de 3° ano do Ensino Médio, na EEEM Irmã Maria Horta, localizada em Vitória/ES. A atividade objetivou levar os alunos a refletirem sobre a língua e, mais especificamente, sobre a variação linguística e o preconceito linguístico. Para isso, foram abordados conceitos básicos sobre variação linguística, enfatizando o pressuposto básico da Teoria da Variação e da Mudança Linguística de que a língua é heterogênea. Neste artigo, apresentamos a sequência didática adotada para o desenvolvimento da atividade, descrevendo todas as etapas, e, na sequência, um relato da experiência. Para avaliação, os alunos tiveram de apresentar uma produção oral e outra escrita, realizando entrevistas para o desenvolvimento de pequenas pesquisas sociolinguísticas para que pudessem observar na prática como funcionavam as diferenças linguísticas entre as pessoas de diferentes graus de escolaridade. A TV Pibid foi a maneira encontrada inicialmente para “quebrar o gelo” com os alunos e ao final como uma entrevista dos alunos à jornalista Any Cometti.
