Equitable Research Capacity Towards the Sustainable Development Goals: The Case for Open Science Hardware
Authors: Arancio Julieta , Morales Tirado Mayra , Pearce Joshua
Published: November 2022

Changes in science funders’ mandates have resulted in advances in open access to data, software, and publications. Research capacity, however, is still unequally distributed worldwide, hindering the impact of these efforts. We argue that to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), open science policies must shift focus from products to processes and infrastructure, including access to open source scientific equipment. This article discusses how conventional, black box, proprietary approaches to science hardware reinforce inequalities in science and slow down innovation everywhere, while also representing a threat to research capacity strengthening efforts. We offer science funders three policy recommendations to promote open science hardware for research capacity strengthening: a) incorporating open hardware into existing open science mandates, b) incentivizing demand through technology transfer and procurement mechanisms, c) promoting the adoption of open hardware in national and regional service centers. We expect this agenda to foster capacity building towards enabling the more equitable and efficient science needed to achieve the SDGs.
Toppling the Ivory Tower: Increasing Public Participation in Research Through Open and Citizen Science
Authors: Jialu Chen Mary
Published: November 2022

Prior to the emergence of professional researchers, amateurs without formal training primarily made contributions to science in what is known as ‘citizen science.’ Over time, science has become less accessible to the public, while at the same time public participation in research has decreased. However, recent progress in open and citizen science may be the key to strengthening the relationship between researchers and the public. Citizen science may also be key to collecting data that would otherwise be unobtainable through traditional sources, such as measuring progress on the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). However, despite myriad benefits, there has been limited legislative action taken to promote open and citizen science policies. The underlying issues are incentive systems which overemphasize publication in high impact, for-profit journals. The suggested policy solutions include: 1) creating an open database for citizen science projects, 2) restricting publishers from disadvantaging citizen science, and 3) incorporating open science in researcher evaluation.
SDG 13-Climate Action & Open Science: Accelerating Practices
Authors: Johnstone Injy
Published: November 2022

The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and open science are symbiotic processes. No SDG reveals this connection more strongly than SDG 13-Climate Action. This perspective uses the SDGs as a lens to explore open science practices and prospects. It illustrates, through the concept of Net-Zero, how open science has been an accelerator of SDG 13-Climate Action. It also shows how open science can be further advanced in the context of SDG 13, discussing related SDGs such as Goal 9-Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure; Goal 16-Peace, Justice, and Strong Institutions; and Goal 17-Partnerships for the Goals. In these ways, this perspective describes opportunities for open science and SDG-Climate Action to support and accelerate one another.
Wastewater Surveillance for Public Health: Beyond the Pandemic
Authors: Kannan Vishvak , Meganathan Saveetha , Mishra Rakesh
Published: November 2022

Wastewater-based epidemiology (WBE) is a public health tool that enables informed, targeted responses to crises such as disease outbreaks and epidemics. In this paper, we discuss the significance of the practice of open science in generating social impact through policy decisions on day-to-day pandemic management when public institutions adopt WBE as part of the COVID-19 pandemic response. Further, we examine how open science helped communicate the importance and credibility of cutting-edge science to the public through continuous engagement using publicly available data, scientific communication interfaced through mass media, and information sharing via a live dashboard. Critical to the translation of science to policy was the philosophy of complete access to the entire knowledge generation process, results, and findings. We analyze the success of such an initiative in the city of Bengaluru in India amidst other academic studies in the country with regard to their translation to policy engagement. We posit that Bengaluru’s success may be due to the presence of an open science ethos, and multi-stakeholder inputs for knowledge creation and dissemination, leading to nuanced science communication which is empowering rather than patronizing. We further suggest policy-level recommendations for the incorporation of WBE as a public health surveillance tool and impress upon the interweaving of open science as part of scientific practice and its broader uptake by the policy ecosystem.
Analysis of Open Science Policy Recommendations Proposed in India’s 5th Science, Technology & Innovation Policy Draft
Authors: Koley Moumita
Published: November 2022

One of the core principles of science is to aid socio-economic growth. Open science is a movement that reinforces the primacy of science in the direction of economic and social welfare. UNESCO's recommendation on open science aims to provide an international framework for open science policy and practice. It endorses unrestricted access to scholarly publications and data, the use of digital technologies to drive scientific processes, more collaboration and cooperation among the actors in the scientific ecosystem, sharing of research infrastructure, acknowledgment of diverse knowledge systems, and science for society. Open science could enable a productive science ecosystem in global south countries through efficient knowledge circulation, resource sharing, and collaboration. Analysis of open science policy from a global south country can provide valuable insights. India is preparing to adopt an open science framework recommended in the 5th Science, Technology, and Innovation Policy (STIP) draft, released in December 2020. The STIP draft recommends open access to articles and research data from publicly funded projects, access to research infrastructure beyond the boundary of academic and research institutions, strengthening of Indian journals, and open educational resources. However, the draft lacks an exhaustive implementation plan. The draft falls short in devising strategies to foster collaboration between actors of the STI ecosystem, the inclusion of traditional knowledge systems, and society's role in knowledge creation processes. The science policymakers and advisers of the Department of Science and Technology and the government of India should probe these areas to develop a more effective and inclusive open science framework.
Estimating the X-Ray Irradiance of the 2003 October 28 Solar Flare
Authors: Reep Jeffrey W.
Published: November 2022

The 2003 October 28 X24 solar flare was saturated in GOES XRS/A for about 10 minutes, near the peak of the event. By using RHESSI X-ray spectral fits during that same time period, the XRS/A time series of the flare and derived quantities like temperature and emission measure can be estimated.
Presence-absence of plant habitat specialists in 15 patches of dry calcareous grassland
Authors: Lieungh Eva , Bjureke Kristina , Evju Marianne , Johaadien Rukaya , Olsen Siri , Skarpaas Olav , Stabbetorp Odd Egil , Wollan Anders
Published: November 2022

Dry grasslands on calcareous bedrock in warm climates around the Oslo Fjord are naturally fragmented biodiversity hotspots. This habitat geographically coincides with the most densely populated area of Norway. Many habitat specialists, along with the habitat itself, are red-listed because of land-use change, forest encroachment, and invasive species that cause habitat loss and greater isolation of remaining patches. To ensure effective conservation, data on species presences and absences are necessary to quantify states, changes, and extinction risks in specific populations and habitat patches.

We present presence-absence data of 49 vascular plant species in 15 patches of dry calcareous grassland habitat, surveyed in 2009, 2019, and in 2020. The species are considered to be habitat specialists and, thus, unlikely to occur between the patches.
Effects of COVID-19 pandemic on computational intelligence and cybersecurity: Survey
Authors: Mkaouer Mohamed Wiem , Gaber Tarek , Dagdia and Zaineb Chelly
Published: November 2022

In late December 2019, the World Health Organization (WHO) announced the outbreak of a new type of coronavirus, named the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), also known as COVID-19. The deadliness of the virus has forced governments and countries to socially isolate their populations, causing a worldwide impact on the economy. Pandemic management has stressed health systems to work beyond their limits, adding more to the tragedy of losing millions of lives. As a natural response to such disasters, intelligent systems have been developed for various reasons related to virus detection, tracking and control. The social lockdown created a record level of online platforms and applications being used to resume professional and educational activities in a virtual environment. This has triggered an unprecedented growth in cybercrime. This paper presents the effects of the pandemic on computational intelligence and cybersecurity.

The existence of solitary wave solutions for the neuron model with conductance-resistance symmetry
Authors: Cheng Feifei , Li Ji , Yu Qing
Published: November 2022

The neuron model with conductance-resistance symmetry was recently derived by Deng, which is similar to the Hodgkin-Huxley equation, referred to as CRS neuron model. In this paper, we will consider a 2-dimensional reduction model qualitatively similar to the FitzHugh-Nagumo equation. We first give the derivation of the CRS neuron model in propagating action potential. And then we prove the existence of solitary wave solution for the 2-dimensional reduced CRS neuron model by using phase diagram analysis.

Published: November 2022

The aim of this article is to obtain common fixed point results on complex-valued extended $ b $-metric spaces for rational contractions involving control functions of two variables. Our theorems generalize some famous results in the literature. We supply an example to show the originality of our main result. As an application, we develop common fixed point results for rational contractions involving control functions of one variable in the class of complex-valued extended $ b $-metric spaces.
Analysis and event-triggered control for a stochastic epidemic model with logistic growth
Authors: Cai Tingting , Wang Yuqian , Wang Liang , Tang Zongying , Zhou Jun
Published: November 2022

In this paper, a stochastic epidemic model with logistic growth is discussed. Based on stochastic differential equation theory, stochastic control method, etc., the properties of the solution of the model nearby the epidemic equilibrium of the original deterministic system are investigated, the sufficient conditions to ensure the stability of the disease-free equilibrium of the model are established, and two event-triggered controllers to drive the disease from endemic to extinction are constructed. The related results show that the disease becomes endemic when the transmission coefficient exceeds a certain threshold. Furthermore, when the disease is endemic, we can drive the disease from endemic to extinction by choosing suitable event-triggering gains and control gains. Finally, the effectiveness of the results is illustrated by a numerical example.
Mixed traffic flow of human-driven vehicles and connected autonomous vehicles: String stability and fundamental diagram
Authors: Ma Lijing , Qu Shiru , Ren Jie , Zhang Xiangzhou
Published: November 2022

The introduction of connected autonomous vehicles (CAVs) gives rise to mixed traffic flow on the roadway, and the coexistence of human-driven vehicles (HVs) and CAVs may last for several decades. CAVs are expected to improve the efficiency of mixed traffic flow. In this paper, the car-following behavior of HVs is modeled by the intelligent driver model (IDM) based on actual trajectory data. The cooperative adaptive cruise control (CACC) model from the PATH laboratory is adopted for the car-following model of CAVs. The string stability of mixed traffic flow is analyzed for different market penetration rates of CAVs, showing that CAVs can effectively prevent stop-and-go waves from forming and propagating. In addition, the fundamental diagram is obtained from the equilibrium state, and the flow-density chart indicates that CAVs can improve the capacity of mixed traffic flow. Furthermore, the periodic boundary condition is designed for numerical simulation according to the infinite length platoon assumption in the analytical approach. The simulation results are consistent with the analytical solutions, suggesting the validity of the string stability and fundamental diagram analysis of mixed traffic flow.
Designing for impact: The center for teaching and learning as a cultivator of a faculty learner-leader praxis
Authors: Stitt-Bergh Monica , Fowler Debra , Donaldson Jonan Phillip , Richardson Ra'sheedah , Hunter Truth , Patterson Clinton A.
Published: November 2022

Centers for teaching and learning (CTLs) address external and internal factors that influence teaching and learning. To accomplish this, often without additional resources, CTLs need an efficient and effective solution. By combining evidence-based practices in faculty development and a distillation of effective practices at three different institutions, the authors developed a sustainable, generative, learner-leader model for CTLs and others in faculty development to employ. The model emerged from an analysis of the authors’ collective and independent professional experiences, is grounded in a community of practice framework, and innovatively addresses the need for faculty leadership development. The authors describe the components of the learner-leader praxis and illustrate in narrative examples. By employing a learner-leader model, CTLs and others in faculty development can efficiently and effectively transform teaching and reach greater numbers of faculty.
Epidemic Healthcare Kiosk
Authors: Jagannath D. J. , Dolly D. Raveena Judie , Peter J. Dinesh
Published: November 2022

One of the most difficult tasks for the physicians is to analyze, manage, and plan suitable diagnoses and treatments for society, especially in an epidemic situation like Corona virus disease (COVID-19). Hence, the mortality rate shoots up. The ultimate reason for such pathetic situation is due to large mass of people being infected, lack of physicians and testing staff, and the threat of physicians themselves being infected while testing patients. This article proposes a solution to tackle this major issue worldwide. This article portrays the methodology of an IoT-interfaced epidemic healthcare kiosk (EHK)-intelligent monitoring system to plan and manage epidemics. The EHK is a non-invasive data acquisition system that consists of several sensors that can record the physiological measurements of the EHK user. The measured parameters are computed using quantum machine learning techniques. The proposed ideology can reduce the mortality rate, control the epidemic, and moreover, provide safety to citizens and physicians.
A New Internet of Things (IoT) Framework for Public Sectors
Authors: Alotaibi Sara Jeza
Published: November 2022

Due to tremendous technological improvements, over the past several years the world has witnessed, and continues to witness, digitalization, which has received a wealth of attention. Technology and connectivity have made it possible for many technologies and pieces of software to be connected, which has subsequently made it possible to communicate without a human being directly involved. The internet of things (IoT) is a phenomenon that has gained much popularity since its inception in 2009 and which has become a crucial component in real-life applications. In order to understand how the internet of things (IoT) might be used to improve the many aspects of the public sector, as well as its limits, this paper explores the many definitions of IoT in relation to its use in the public sector and focuses on designing a new framework that can be used as a guideline of using IoT in public sectors in diverse international contexts.

Published: November 2022

Reverse skyline query is an extension of the classical skyline query, widely used in the decision support in e-business. The vast burst of big data in e-business challenges the classical algorithms for such queries. This paper provides a novel definition of decision set and a decision set based reverse skyline query method called DRS on the double-layer R tree indexing in a map-reduce manner. Theoretical proofs are provided for the correctness and complexity of the DRS algorithm. Experiments made using several large data sets are presented and analyzed to illustrate the applicability and the outperformance of DRS over the state-of-the-art reverse skyline query methods.
Perceived Value of Online Services: Scale Validation and Managerial Implications
Authors: Gamage Thilini Chathurika
Published: November 2022

Marketing literature states perceived value is crucial in predicting customer choice in marketing literature. However, perceived value of online services can be different from its offline counterpart due to its temporal and spatial nature, which has been relatively under-researched, where a lacuna of theoretical frameworks and well-accepted measurement scales exists. This paper addresses the above research gap by developing a 19-item measurement scale that can be used to assess perceived value of online services. Data collected from a questionnaire survey of 147 customers of hotels in Sri Lanka were used to assess the reliability and validity of the proposed scale in a post-purchase situation, using exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses. The findings produces six value dimensions (conditional, epistemic, social, monetary, convenience and emotional value) all of which were found to demonstrate acceptable psychometric properties based on a variety of reliability and validity tests. Managerial and theoretical implications stemming from the empirical findings are also discussed

Content Validation of the Athletic Training Milestones: A Report from the Association for Athletic Training Education Research Network
Authors: Bacon Cailee E. Welch , Anderson Barton E. , Cavallario Julie M. , Van Lunen Bonnie L. , Eberman Lindsey E.
Published: November 2022

The Athletic Training Milestones were developed as a comprehensive framework to assess athletic trainers' knowledge, skill, and behavior acquisition across the continuum of athletic training practice. However, without established content validity, it is unclear whether the Athletic Training Milestones can be used effectively as a clinical evaluation and research tool to evaluate competence and performance across multiple users and sites. We conducted a highly conservative content validity index (CVI) with data from 12 content experts. Our findings revealed an extremely high overall scale CVI of 0.99, and CVI scores of the 28 individual subcompetency items assessed ranged from 0.83 to 1.00. For the athletic training profession to truly embrace competency-based evaluation and performance assessments, we need a highly valid and comprehensive instrument, such as the Athletic Training Milestones.
Quadriceps Neuromuscular Function During and After Exercise-Induced Fatigue in Patients With Patellofemoral Pain
Authors: Kim Sungwan , Roh Yuyeon , Glaviano Neal R. , Park Jihong
Published: November 2022

Context

Exercise-induced fatigue reduces muscle force production and motoneuron pool excitability. However, it is unclear if patients with patellofemoral pain (PFP) experience further loss in quadriceps neuromuscular function due to fatigue during exercise and postexercise.

Objective

To observe how quadriceps maximal strength, activation, and force-generating capacity change during and after repetitive bouts of isokinetic knee-extension exercise in patients with PFP.

Design

Cross-sectional study.

Setting

Laboratory.

Patients or Other Participants

Twenty-two patients with PFP (visual analog scale mean pain severity = 4.2 of 10 cm, mean symptom duration = 38.6 months) and 19 healthy control individuals matched on age and body mass index.

Main Outcome Measure(s)

Quadriceps peak torque (PT), central activation ratio (CAR), and rate of torque development (RTD) were assessed at baseline and immediately after every 5 sets of knee-extension exercise (times 1–5). Participants continued knee-extension exercises until the baseline quadriceps PT dropped below 50% for 3 consecutive contractions.

Results

No group-by-time interaction was observed for quadriceps PT (F5,195 = 1.03, P = .40). However, group-by-time interactions were detected for quadriceps CAR (F5,195 = 2.63, P= .03) and RTD (F5,195 = 3.85, P = .002). Quadriceps CAR (−3.6%, P = .04, Cohen d = 0.53) and RTD (−18.9%, P = .0008, Cohen d = 1.02) decreased between baseline and time 1 in patients with PFP but not in their healthy counterparts (CAR −1.9%, P = .86; RTD −9.8%, P = .22). Quadriceps RTD also decreased between times 4 and 5 in patients with PFP (−24.9%, P = .002, Cohen d = 0.89) but not in the healthy group (−0.9%, P = .99).

Conclusions

Patients with PFP appeared to experience an additional reduction in quadriceps activation, force-generating capacity, or both during the early and late stages of exercise compared with healthy individuals. Clinicians should be aware of such possible acute changes during exercise and postexercise and use fatigue-resistant rehabilitation programs for patients with PFP.
Cross-Education Balance Effects After Unilateral Rehabilitation in Individuals With Chronic Ankle Instability: A Systematic Review
Authors: Lawry-Popelka Briana , Chung Sunghoon , McCann Ryan S.
Published: November 2022

Objective

To conduct a systematic review of existing literature on cross-education balance effects after unilateral training in the population with chronic ankle instability (CAI).

Data Sources

PubMed, SPORTDiscus, CINAHL Plus.

Study Selection

To be included in the systematic review, studies were required to have been published in English, included participants with CAI, had participants undergo a unilateral therapeutic exercise for the lower extremity, and measured balance performance of the untrained lower extremity before and after the intervention.

Data Extraction

The certainty of evidence in each included study was assessed via the Downs and Black checklist. A score of 24 to 28 indicated excellent or very low risk of bias; 19 to 23, good or low risk of bias; 14 to 18, fair or moderate risk of bias; and <14, poor or high risk of bias. We extracted information from each study regarding design, participant characteristics, inclusion criteria, independent and dependent variables, intervention, and results. Baseline and postintervention balance performance data for participants' untrained limbs were used to calculate the Hedges g effect sizes and 95% CIs.

Data Synthesis

Our search returned 6 studies that met the inclusion criteria. The articles' risk of bias ranged from high to low (11–19). In 4 of 5 studies that examined unilateral balance training, the authors reported a cross-education effect. In the lone study that examined resistance training at the ankle joint, a cross-education effect was also present. Several cross-education effects were associated with large effect sizes. This systematic review was limited by a small number of studies that varied in methods and quality.

Conclusions

Our results suggest that unilateral therapeutic exercise can improve balance performance of the untrained limb of individuals with CAI. More work is needed to determine which training protocols are most effective for generating a cross-education effect.
The Experiences of Professional Master's Athletic Training Students with Sexual Harassment During Clinical Education
Authors: Trentley Chaselyn M. , Bradney Debbie A. , Singe Stephanie M. , Bowman Thomas G.
Published: November 2022

Context

Sexual harassment is a concern in health care professions and on college campuses nationwide. Athletic trainers are health care professionals who work in close conjunction with athletes, coaches, officials, and other stakeholders, predisposing them to potential sexual harassment occurrences.

Objective

To examine the experiences of sexual harassment of professional master's ATSs during their clinical education experiences.

Design

Mixed-method study.

Setting

Online questionnaire.

Patients or Other Participants

Eighty-seven athletic training students (68 women, 19 males; age = 23.40 ± 1.85 years; 44 first-year students, 43 second-year students) currently enrolled in Commission on Accreditation of Athletic Training Education (CAATE)–accredited professional master's athletic training programs.

Data Collection and Analysis

We sent an online questionnaire to CAATE-accredited professional master's athletic training program directors, along with a recruitment email encouraging program directors to send the questionnaire to students currently enrolled in the programs they lead. We validated the questionnaire using expert and peer review. We used a general inductive approach to analyze the results and used multi-analyst triangulation and peer review to ensure credibility.

Results

Our study revealed that 28.70% of participants reported they felt as though they were subjected to sexual harassment behaviors during clinical education. Themes reported through recipients' accounts of sexual harassment defined a timeline that started when sexual harassment most commonly manifested through inappropriate comments, followed by ATSs having to adjust after incidents instead of the perpetrators, and finally ended with insufficient resolution in which victims felt the situations should have been handled differently.

Conclusions

Sexual harassment affects some professional master's ATSs in clinical education settings. Athletic training program administrators should educate students on clearly defined policies and procedures that will lead to resolution when sexual harassment occurs during athletic training clinical education.
Sea ice conditions along the Hudson Bay route
Authors: Forward C N
Published: November 2022

La route maritime de la baie d'Hudson n'est ouverte à la navigation que pendant deux mois et demi chaque année. Toutefois, une meilleure connaissance des conditions de la glace permettrait peut-être de prolonger cette période. La présente
étude vise à rassembler brièvement les renseignements disponibles sur les conditions de la glace dans la région, et à représenter cartographiquement les limites des principales étendues de glace aux dates critiques pour la navigation. Certains facteurs agissant sur
les comportements de la glace, comme les mouvements et propriétés de l'eau, la bathymétrie et les conditions atmosphériques, sont aussi considérés. On trouve, le long de la route maritime de la baie d'Hudson, deux principaux types de glace: la glace de mer et les
icebergs. La glace de mer se rencontre dans toute la région durant l'hiver, tandis que les icebergs sont confinés principalement dans la partie orientale du détroit d'Hudson. La plus grande partie de la glace de la baie d'Hudson est d'origine locale. Dans le détroit d'Hudson,
cependant, celle-ci se mélange à la glace dérivant du canal de Foxe et du détroit de Davis. Même si le détroit d'Hudson ne gèle pas complètement durant l'hiver, il se couvre en grande partie de morceaux de banquise. La baie d'Hudson, au contraire, gèle
presque totalement. En mai, la glace commence à faiblir et, en juin, le champ principal de glace de la baie d'Hudson se disloque. Le dégel étant déjà avancé, au début de juillet, la navigation peut reprendre. La baie et le détroit d'Hudson sont à peu
près libres de glace en août, septembre et octobre. C'est en novembre que la glace recommence à se former. Enfin, en décembre, les apports extérieurs déterminent un état caractéristique de la glace d'hiver, laquelle couvrira la région pendant les cinq
mois suivants. D'une année à l'autre, les conditions des glaces dépendent de certains facteurs. Quelques-uns, comme la bathymétrie, les propriétés physiques de l'eau, les courants et les marées, ont une action constante. D'autres, tels que le vent et la
température, causent des variantes annuelles aux conditions de la glace. Il fut vérifié que les écarts thermiques exercent bien une influence au moment précis de la débâcle et de l'embâcle et que le vent est un facteur important du mouvement des
glaces.
Manufacturing in downtown Toronto

Published: November 2022

Au cours de l'été de 1956, les auteurs de cet article ont fait un relevé d'un secteur industriel de la "basse ville" de Toronto afin d'en étudier les particularités: facteurs de localisation, activités, nature et conditions de
travail, perspectives d'avenir. Aucune donnée statistique n'était disponible et il leur a fallu se mettre en contact avec les dirigeants de chacun des 158 établissements situés dans le secteur; le questionnaire en appendice de l'article servit à obtenir les renseignements
désirés. Bien que ce secteur ait l'apparence générale d'être fortement en baisse, l'enquête a révélé que la plupart des établissements se proposent d'y demeurer. Les principales raisons sont le loyer modique, l'accessibilité des marchés et
la disponibilité de la main-d'oeuvre. De plus, vu que la majorité des industries sont relativement petites et que la plupart utilisent des matières partiellement ouvrées, leurs sources d'approvisionnement sont surtout les marchands de gros situés à proximité. La
grande partie de la main-d'oeuvre réside dans les quartiers voisins et la région métropolitaine de Toronto constitue un marché où s'écoulent presque tous les produits fabriqués dans le secteur étudié. Dans la conclusion, les auteurs font remarquer que,
malgré l'aspect vieillot et dégradé donné au quartier par les constructions et quelques entreprises en décadence, l'industrie en réalité y est active et semble bien vouloir y demeurer.
Human geography of the Lower Albani River Basin, Northern Ontario
Authors: Dean W G
Published: November 2022

La région étudiée ici est située dans le nord de l'Ontario et comprend une partie du bassin de la rivière Albany inférieure; elle s'étend de la voie du National-Canadien, entre Hearst et Nakina, à Fort Albany sur la baie
James. L'auteur relève les grands traits de la géographie physique de cette région triangulaire, faisant ressortir les influences que le milieu a pu avoir sur le comportement des indigènes et des blancs. Il explique aussi l'effet qu'a eu sur la colonisation par les blancs la
construction du chemin de fer dans cette partie du pays au début du siècle. Le relief du bassin de la rivière Albany inférieure ressemble à celui d'une plaine, avec élévations maximums de 800 pieds. La nature du terrain, toutefois, se divise en trois classes
différentes: les hautes terres du lac Long, la plaine argileuse de Cochrane et les basse terres de la baie d'Hudson. Partout, le sol est recouvert d'apports des glaciers dont l'épaisseur varie; les sols pauvres et les conditions climatiques peu favorables sont à l'origine des
fondrières et d'essences forestières tels que l'épinette noire, l'épinette blanche, le pin gris et le mélèze laricin, tous de qualité variable. La plupart des indigènes, au nombre de 700, sont des indiens Cree du groupe Albany. Malgré l'attrait
économique de la civilisation, leurs principales occupations sont encore la chasse, le piégeage et la pêche. Ils obtiennent la plus grande partie de leur nourriture et de leurs vêtements en échange de leurs fourrures aux postes de traite. La récente expansion
écomonique de la région, cependant, a fait augmenter les possibilités d'emploi et chaque année plusieurs familles d'indigènes émigrent à des endroits situés à proximité de la voie du National-Canadien.

types or units of land classification, especially types most sui table for agriculture. Fifteen land types are studied in detail. grouped under the following four major regions: the clay plains, the sand and silt plains, the limestone plains and the rock knob uplands. The report establishes a
relationship between the intensity of agricultural land use and the major categories of land types Based on this study it is anticipated that there will be further modifications in the farm distribution pattern resulting in a reduction of the farm land area in the non-agricultural and marginal
sectors and a redistribution of farming activities in more intensively used areas.
Pingos of the pleistocene Mackenzie River Delta area
Authors: Mackay J R
Published: November 2022

Pingos are stable intrapermafrost ice-cored hills. Most were formed over a thousand years ago as an indirect result of the shoaling of lakes by geomorphic and climatic processes. As the lakes gradually shoaled and lake ice froze to the bottom in winter, an
impermeable permafrost cover was formed, ab initio, over the unfrozen saturated sediments beneath. Downward aggradation of the newly formed permafrost cover was predominantly in fine to medium sands which were not susceptible to extensive ice segregation. Consequently, the pressure of expelled pore
water, trapped in a closed system, was relieved by an upward doming of the thinnest part of the overlying permafroc,t cover, which normally coincided with the deepest part of the lake. Water in the dome froze to form the pingo ice-core. Calculations based on ground and lake temperatures and the
nature of the sediments show that pingo growth was slow, probably involving tens of years for the larger pingos. The large pingos reported in the literature as occurring in the Mackenzie delta are, in fact, not in the modern delta but in Pleistocene sediments to the east. A group of small pingos,
which have not been described in detail do, however, occur in the modern delta.
Area measurement of Prince Edward Island land-use maps
Authors: McClellan J B
Published: November 2022

This paper outlines a method of area measurement used in the regional analysis of Prince Edward Island. Land-use maps of the island at a scale of 1 :50,000 were covered with a grid of one-mile squares as unit-areas. The area of each land-use category within a
unit-area was measured with a dot planimeter. The data were processed by an IBM 650 computer to obtain twenty-seven percentage and acreage figures for each unit-area. These percentages and acreages were then plotted on choropleth-type maps which proved to be useful tools for the regional analysis of
the island.

ABSTRACT
The Spectrum of Sense Remoteness in Polysemy: Bridging Computational and Theoretical Lexicography with Psycholinguistics (Part 2)

This two-part paper bridges insights from psycholinguistics and from theoretical and computational lexicography to develop a fine-grained classification of polysemy organized along a wider spectrum of sense remoteness of ambiguous words in Polish based on the investigation of a large collection of linguistic data. In the second part, we show that polysemy is not a stable phenomenon and relations between senses may differ across language users. For instance, our fifty-fifty class or borderline cases may be represented differently by different language users depending on their perception of the world, world knowledge, associations. We point to some parameters of variation in the class of polysemy by metonymy and polysemy by metaphor which may affect their sense remoteness and consequently also the way they are represented in the mental lexicon.
W poszukiwaniu kobiecych tradycji literackich. Zapomniane poetki słowackie pierwszej połowy XX wieku
Authors: Majerek Rafał
Published: November 2022

W artykule zaprezentowana została jedna z ważnych, w kontekście słowackiego literaturoznawstwa ostatnich lat, inicjatyw wydawniczych – antologia Zatopione dusze. Z twórczości poetek słowackich pierwszej połowy XX wieku (2017) pod redakcją Andrei Bokníkovej. Tom przypomina twórczość dwunastu poetek, które aktywne były w życiu literackim pierwszych dekad XX wieku, następnie z różnych powodów z działalności literackiej zrezygnowały, a pamięć o nich stopniowo ulegała zatarciu. Opublikowane teksty stanowią punkt wyjścia do refleksji nad możliwością reinterpretacji historii literatury słowackiej i zdynamizowania jej opisu, m.in. dzięki rekonstrukcji linii pisarstwa kobiet, często pomijanego lub schematycznie prezentowanego w pracach historycznoliterackich. Projekt taki wpisywałby się w aktualne poszukiwania nowych sposobów konceptualizacji literackiej przeszłości. In Search of Women’s Literary Traditions. Forgotten Slovak Female Poets in the First Half of the 20th Century The article presents one of the publishing projects important in the context of Slovak literary studies in recent years, the anthology Sunken Souls. From Works by Slovak Female Poets in the First Half of the 20th Century (2017), edited by Andrea Bokníková. The book recalls the works of twelve women poets who were present in the literary life of the first decades of the 20th century, then gave up their literary activity for various reasons, and memory of them was gradually blurred. The published texts could be a starting point for reflection on the possibility of reinterpreting the history of Slovak literature and making its description more dynamic, e.g. thanks to the reconstruction of the line of women’s writing, often ignored or schematically presented in historical literary studies. This kind of project would correspond with the current search for new ways of conceptualising the literary past.
Zapomniane miejsca Europy Wschodniej w zbiorze opowiadań węgierskiej pisarki Noémi Kiss pt. „Rongyos Ékszerdoboz” („Sfatygowane puzderko na biżuterię”
Authors: Németh Orsolya
Published: November 2022

Pisarka Noémi Kiss oprowadza nas po takich regionach, okolicach i miastach, które kiedyś były powszechne znane, odgrywały ważną rolę w historii naszej części Europy i które w dzisiejszych czasach są w pewnym sensie zapomniane lub dla typowego Europejczyka wydają się bardzo dalekie (w sensie i dosłownym, i przeniośnym), czasem nawet egzotyczne. W swoim szkicu chciałabym pokazać obraz tych miejsc, kultur i mieszkańców, który został zawarty w utworze Kiss. Spróbuję również znaleźć odpowiedź na pytanie, dlaczego te miejsca mogły zostać zapomniane.

Forgotten Places of Eastern Europe in a Short Stories Collection by a Hungarian Writer Noémi Kiss “Rongyos Ékszerdoboz” (“Tattered Jewel Case”)

The writer Noémi Kiss shows us around such regions, neighborhoods and cities that were once widely known, played an important role in the history of our part of Europe and which nowadays are somewhat forgotten or far away (literally and metaphorically) to an average European person, sometimes even seem exotic. In my paper I would like to show the image of these places, cultures and inhabitants, as it is depicted in the work of Kiss. I will also try to find the answer to the question why these places could have been forgotten.
A Study Protocol for a Multisite Randomized Controlled Trial of an Intervention to Improve Outcomes After Spinal Cord Injury
Authors: Coker Jennifer , Charlifue Susan , Botticello Amanda , Tate Denise G. , Philippus Angela , Strober Lauren , Forchheimer Martin , Monden Kimberley R.

Background

The consequences of spinal cord injury (SCI) can place significant demands on an individual’s coping mechanisms. Interventions to promote psychological adjustment and coping are often included in inpatient rehabilitation programs; however, following discharge, many individuals with SCI do not receive ongoing counseling or education about psychological adjustment to disability. Effective postacute treatment models are needed to help individuals with SCI build skills that help them adapt to the stresses associated with a chronic physical disability, alleviate the consequences of anxiety and depression, and enhance subjective well-being.

Objectives

To describe the protocol for a randomized clinical trial (RCT) of a 6-week intervention designed to improve psychosocial outcomes after SCI.

Methods

To test efficacy and replicability of the intervention, we designed a three-arm, multisite RCT with assessments conducted at six time points. Our primary hypothesis is that participants in the Group arm will report greater improvements in psychosocial outcomes than participants who complete the intervention individually via video (Individual arm) or those who do not receive the intervention (Control arm). We also hypothesize that participants in the Group arm will maintain greater improvements in psychosocial outcomes longer than those in the individual or control arms.

Conclusion

Results of the RCT will be presented and published to professionals and consumers, and intervention training and materials will be made available upon request.

Published: November 2022

Este estudo busca retratar através de levantamento histórico a cronologia dos acontecimentos e o contexto político por trás da implementação da Lei de Diretrizes e Bases de 1961, da apresentação do primeiro anteprojeto até a sua aprovação. Articulando essa narrativa e contexto histórico a ideias de cientistas políticos, foi realizado nesta pesquisa como principal ferramenta na busca de dados, uma revisão bibliográfica em banco de dados de artigos, teses e dissertações. Com isso foi possível compreender de forma mais aprofundada quais motivos e /ou interesses guiaram as tomadas de decisão em torno da educação no Brasil. Esse mergulho histórico nos ajudou a compreender melhor nossa história e conhecer nossas figuras públicas, a fim de contextualizar suas tomadas de decisões ou mesmo sua inação para assuntos de interesse público.

O trabalho relata uma experiência integrada entre as disciplinas de Tecnologia Aplicada à Educação e Educação no Campo, do sétimo período de Pedagogia, da Universidade Estadual de Montes Claros - Unimontes, no ano de 2017. O objetivo era usar os recursos de Tecnologia de Informação e Comunicação (TIC) no desenvolvimento de uma animação que tratasse do fechamento das escolas rurais. Utilizando recursos simples e de baixo custo, as autoras produziram um vídeo curto que cumpriu seu papel, transmitindo a mensagem principal com êxito. Os materiais e métodos empregados na execução do projeto mostraram-se úteis para o uso posterior nas práticas pedagógicas das futuras docentes, instituindo possibilidades para novas aplicações.
