Authors: Miguel Amanda Samila Vieira , Pereira Zildene Francisca , Araújo Edinaura Almeida de
Published: November 2024

Para a realização da pesquisa e escrita desse artigo, nos perguntamos: Por que a leitura literária de temas fraturantes/sensíveis ainda é tão pouco utilizada nas salas de aulas dos Anos Iniciais do Ensino Fundamental? Como objetivo geral, refletimos sobre a necessidade de abordagens e desenvolvimento de pesquisas em torno dos temas considerados fraturantes/sensíveis nos Anos Iniciais do Ensino Fundamental. Realizamos um panorama das produções científicas nas monografias do curso de Pedagogia, dos anos de 2013 a 2023, acerca da utilização da literatura infantil e temas fraturantes/sensíveis, disponíveis na Biblioteca Setorial “Maria das Mercês Ferreira Mendes”, do Centro de Formação de Professores/UFCG. Ao final, vimos que é imprescindível darmos continuidade aos estudos voltados para os temas fraturantes/sensíveis em sala de aula, pois compreendemos que os textos literários devem fazer parte do cotidiano pessoal e educacional das crianças para favorecer um olhar diferenciado as demandas cotidianas vividas pelas crianças.

Published: November 2024

A pesquisa teve como objetivo geral compreender as contribuições da psicologia escolar para atuação do psicólogo na educação básica. Como objetivos específicos: (1) investigar sobre a prática do psicólogo escolar no atendimento à queixa escolar; (2) identificar a concepção de queixa escolar presente em profissionais da psicologia que atuam na educação básica e (3) reconhecer as possibilidades de atuação do psicólogo no atendimento à queixa escolar. A pesquisa pautou-se na metodologia qualitativa, tendo o levantamento de dados ocorrido por meio de entrevistas com onze psicólogas. Verificou-se que sete participantes (64%) da pesquisa explicitaram respostas que dizem respeito a um modelo crítico de atuação, tendo quatro (36%) apresentado respostas referentes ao modelo individualizante de atuação. Dessa forma, evidencia-se que ainda prevalece na psicologia escolar e educacional duas formas contraditórias de atuação, sendo uma que segue o modelo crítico de atuação e outra que segue o modelo individualizante.

Background

Late HIV diagnosis (CD4+ T-cell count < 350 cells/μL, or with an AIDS-defining event) remains a persistent challenge in Greece, indicating potential missed opportunities (MOs) for earlier testing.

Aim

To determine the frequency of HIV indicator conditions (ICs) preceding diagnosis and to quantify MOs for earlier testing at a nationwide level in Greece.

Methods

This multicentre retrospective study analysed data on 823 antiretroviral therapy-naive adults (≥ 18 years) diagnosed with HIV during 2019–21. Medical records were reviewed to identify pre-diagnosis healthcare contacts (HCCs) and ICs justifying HIV testing. Univariable and multivariable logistic regression identified factors associated with ≥ 1 MO. A Bayesian model estimated the time from seroconversion to diagnosis.

Results

Among 517 participants with HCC data, 249 had ≥ 1 HCC. Of these, 59.0% (147/249) were late presenters. These cases had 365 HCCs, and 191 (52.3%) were MOs for testing. The most common ICs were sexually transmitted infections (39.8%; 76/191) and fever (11.0%; 21/191). Non-Greek origin was associated with lower odds of experiencing ≥ 1 MO (adjusted odds ratio: 0.48; 95% CI: 0.22─1.02), while higher education increased odds of MOs for early HIV diagnosis. Median time from seroconversion to diagnosis was 3.2 years for the full sample and 3.7 years for those with HCC, with about half of the latter reporting MOs post-estimated seroconversion. Recognising MOs would have potentially spared approximately 1 year of delay in diagnosis.

Conclusion

MOs for earlier HIV diagnosis were prevalent in Greece. Leveraging IC-guided testing and addressing barriers could support earlier diagnosis and treatment, limiting adverse health outcomes and preventing transmission.
Likelihood of HIV and recent bacterial sexually transmitted infections among transgender and non-binary individuals in 20 European countries, October 2023 to April 2024
Authors: Wang Haoyi , Kolstee Johann , Casalini Jules L , Hakim Samira , Zimmermann Hanne ML , Jonas Kai J
Published: November 2024

Background

Global data highlight the disproportionate burden of HIV and sexually transmitted infections (STIs) among transgender individuals. However, scant data exist for both transgender and non-binary individuals in European HIV/STI surveillance.

Aim

To assess self-reported prevalence of HIV and bacterial STIs (syphilis, gonorrhoea, chlamydia) in the past 6 months among transgender and non-binary individuals, comparing the likelihoods of recent STIs between groups.

Methods

Using data from the cross-sectional PROTECT survey conducted in 20 European countries from October 2023 to April 2024, we analysed a subset of 452 participants, 178 transgender and 274 non-binary individuals. Logistic regression was used to compare the risk of each recent bacterial STI, and Poisson regression to compare the risk of the number of recent STIs.

Results

Among transgender individuals, 5 (2.8%) self-reported HIV infection, and recent STI prevalence was 6.7% for syphilis, 15.6% for gonorrhoea and 19.6% for chlamydia. For non-binary individuals, 15 (5.5%) self-reported HIV infection and recent STI prevalence was 15.0% for syphilis, 18.7% for gonorrhoea and 20.8% for chlamydia. Non-binary individuals had significantly higher risk for syphilis (aOR: 1.81; 95% CI: 1.01–4.05) and multiple recent STIs (aOR: 1.46; 95% CI: 1.11–1.91) compared with transgender individuals.

Conclusion

While both transgender and non-binary individuals showed high self-reported prevalence of HIV and bacterial STIs, non-binary individuals showed greater prevalence of STIs, particularly syphilis. Efforts aimed at HIV/STI prevention and surveillance should encourage inclusion of those who identify as non-binary and other gender-diverse individuals alongside transgender individuals to enhance the provision of tailored prevention and treatment services in Europe.

Published: November 2024

An unprecedented upsurge in mpox, caused by clade I of the monkeypox virus (MPXV) was noted in Central Africa in 2024. The first mpox case with MPXV clade Ib outside Africa was reported in Sweden in mid-August. The case experienced a mild disease course after travelling to an affected country. No additional cases of this clade have been detected in Sweden. Strengthened public health measures and surveillance including whole genome sequencing are crucial to prevent establishment of novel MPXV clades.

Published: November 2024

Acute myocarditis has risen among paediatric patients in Italy, with 65 clinically suspected cases reported by 12 centres in 2024, 32 linked to parvovirus B19 (B19V) infection. In 11 cases, B19V was not ruled out despite a concurrent European outbreak. Twenty-nine children required intensive care; eight fatalities occurred. While effective for both severe B19V infection and myocarditis, intravenous immunoglobulins were given in only one-third of cases. These findings highlight the need for timely diagnosis, stronger surveillance, and standardised treatment protocols.

The Effectiveness of Role Audience Format Topic (RAFT) Strategy Combined with Process Writing Approach in Teaching Writing for Junior High School Students
Authors: Nurlia Ratna , Ardini Dessy Ayu
Published: November 2024

This study aimed to determine the impact of the Role Audience Format Topic (RAFT) strategy combined with process writing approach on students' writing achievement. A quasi-experimental, non-randomized pre-test post-test design was employed, involving second-year junior high school students. Class 8A served as the experimental group, while Class 8B was the control group. A pre-test was administered to both groups before the treatment. The experimental group received instruction using the RAFT strategy, while the control group was taught using the grammar translation method. An analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) revealed a significant difference between the two groups. The p-value of .000, which is less than .05, indicates that students who were taught using the RAFT strategy achieved significantly better writing skills than those who were taught using the grammar translation method.

Published: November 2024

Introduction: Professional identity formation requires students’ ability to reflect, which can be supported by constructive feedback from teachers. Feedback practice faces many challenges, including those related to sociocultural aspects. Feedback can be optimised by implementing a model suitable to the attributes of students, teachers, and the clinical environment. This study aimed to develop a suitable feedback model and test its effectiveness in promoting reflection.
Methods: The model was designed based on the theoretical framework and identified feedback-related attributes in FMUI. Expert reviews and cognitive interviews were conducted before the model was tested. The model’s effectiveness was tested using a quasi-experimental design involving 74 students in the Paediatric Module. Students were asked to reflect on their mini-CEX experience after receiving feedback from teachers, and the depth of reflection was compared between students in the intervention and control group. The depth of reflection was measured using Kember scoring, and bivariate analysis was conducted using SPSS 20.0.
Results: The model consists of 5 steps including: Rapport building, Acknowledge students’ strengths, Identify aspect(s) that need improvement, Share teachers’ experiences, and Establish a plan to improve. Deep reflection was more frequently found in the intervention group. Mann-Whitney test showed that the difference between groups was statistically significant (Z=2.964, p=0.003), indicating that reflection in the intervention group was deeper than the control group.
Conclusion: The feedback model formulated based on feedback-related attributes in FMUI was named the RAISE model. Upon testing, students receiving the model could reflect more deeply compared to those receiving the standard model.
El discurso populista y su relación con la polarización polí-tica. Análisis del debate de la primera vuelta en las elecciones presidenciales del Ecuador 2021
Authors: Alemán Elisa , Ávila Nieto Caroline , Guerrero Bacuilima Ximena
Published: November 2024

Tomando en consideración la importancia que el populismo tiene en Latinoamérica por su condición de rasgo endémico en la cultura política de la región, esta investigación se propuso analizar el nivel de populismo expuesto en el discurso político ecuatoriano a partir del análisis del debate realizado durante la primera vuelta de las elecciones presidenciales de 2021. Para ello, se realizó una investigación con enfoque cualitativo utilizando la metodología del análisis del discurso. Sobre la base de la literatura se identificaron ocho rasgos populistas y se codificaron las intervenciones pronunciadas. Los resultados demostraron que seis candidatos de los dieciséis presentaron una mayor carga populista. Las categorías que más se repitieron durante el debate fueron “confrontación” e “identificación de un enemigo”. Ambos rasgos permiten argumentar que este tipo de discurso facilitó la polarización afectiva en la conversación a partir de opuestos como el correísmo versus la banca más que el tradicional clivaje izquierda-derecha.

CHHATTISGARH EXCISE DUTY CONTRIBUTION ON ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT: A CRITICAL STUDY
Authors: Nayak Kamini , Kishan Satya
Published: November 2024

This research paper critically examines the contribution of excise duty to the economic development of Chhattisgarh, a rapidly growing state in central India. The primary purpose of the paper is to explore the extent to which excise duty has bolstered state revenue and its role in financing key infrastructure and welfare projects. Excise duty, particularly on goods like alcohol, tobacco, and petroleum, forms a significant portion of Chhattisgarh's fiscal income, making it crucial to understand its economic implications. Key aspects of excise duty in Chhattisgarh include its structure, collection mechanisms, and recent reforms aimed at enhancing efficiency. The paper assesses the relationship between excise duty revenues and broader economic indicators such as state GDP, employment rates, and infrastructure development. Findings from the study suggest that while excise duty contributes significantly to state revenue, its uneven enforcement and the rise of illegal markets present challenges to maximizing its potential. The paper concludes with recommendations for reforming excise policies, including better regulation and improved transparency, to ensure excise duty continues to contribute effectively to Chhattisgarh's long-term economic growth. By critically evaluating both strengths and weaknesses, this study provides a comprehensive view of excise duty's role in the state's fiscal health.
Intention to Use and Over-Ordering in Online Food Delivery Services: An Extension of the Theory of Planned Behavior
Authors: Permasih Desta , Suroso Arif Imam , Hasanah Nur
Published: November 2024

Online food delivery (OFD) services can shape consumer habits through regular use. Although promotions attract consumers, they may also encourage food waste. This study analyzes factors influencing the intention to use OFD services and over-ordering behaviors by extending the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) with variables such as sales promotion and leftover reuse. The study used purposive sampling and collected data from an online survey of 253 OFD service users in Jabodetabek. Descriptive analysis and Partial Least Squares-Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) were applied. Results showed that most of the OFD users in this study were female residents of Bogor and Jakarta, aged 25 - 35 years old, single, holding a bachelor's degree, employed, with monthly incomes of IDR5,000,000 and IDR10,000,000, and spending IDR1,000,000 - IDR2,000,000 per month on food. Intention to use was influenced by attitude and subjective norms, while over-ordering was influenced by sales promotion and intention to use. The leftover reuse variable did not significantly influence the intention to use or over-ordering. Implications include encouraging continued OFD use through targeted advertising and features to help users manage consumption behavior, such as setting order reminders, providing nutritional information, and offering personalized portion recommendations. This study’s novelty lies in introducing a new variable and demonstrating that sales promotions can encourage over-ordering.

Authors: Hakim An Nahl Akmal , Aprianingsih Atik
Published: November 2024

The issue of plastic waste is a serious social, economic, and cultural issue. Many efforts have been made to reduce the use of disposable food containers and the environmental impact of plastic waste. This study aims to provide an overview of pro-environmental behavior in the context of the daily use of reusable cups. The literature review evaluated 53 scientific papers from Scopus, Publish or Perish and citation searches, released from 2014 to 2024, to analyze drivers, mediating factors, moderating factors, and outcomes related to the daily use of reusable containers. The study identifies key contextual, situational, psychological, and demographic factors influencing the daily use of reusable containers. It also highlights enablers and barriers to adopting this habit, such as environmental messaging, social norms, and financial incentives. The research provides a comprehensive overview of the enabler and barrier factors as well as other factors that influence the use of reusable containers and suggests that the impact of these factors can be understood through the stimuli-organism-response framework. Our findings add to the understanding of drivers that encourage pro-environmental behavior. Policymakers can use these insights to design more effective interventions to promote reusable container use, such as implementing financial incentives or stricter regulations on single-use plastics. Businesses can use these findings to align their marketing strategies with consumer preferences and behaviors related to environmental sustainability.

Authors: Retnaningsih Retnaningsih , Junedi Rahmat
Published: November 2024

The advancement of food science and technology has encouraged the development of functional foods in Indonesia. This study aimed to examine the influence of motivation and reference groups on functional food consumption behavior. This cross-sectional research involved 204 active students of IPB University who were selected using the simple random sampling technique. The data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential data analysis. The linear regression tests revealed that pocket money, reference groups, and motivation positively affected the frequency of functional food consumption. In addition, motivation had a significant positive effect on the number of types of functional foods consumed. The results showed that students' motivation to consume functional foods was low. In light of these findings, the government should actively promote the consumption of functional foods by regulating the prices of functional food sources in the market. Universities and industry producers must collaborate to conduct extensive outreach and education to effectively disseminate information about functional foods.

Reflection of Consumers’ Material Values on Brand Bullying
Authors: Şişli Fatma , Ülker Yelda
Published: November 2024

The concept of materialism which expresses the importance given to material objects, expresses devotion to material needs and desires. Materialism affects people's attitudes and behaviors. For materialists, property, life and identity are important concepts. In addition, materialistic tendencies negatively affect young people and create feelings such as greed and stinginess. Bullying is a behavior that involves physical or psychological violence resulting from the power imbalance between the victim and the bully. This behavior, which is common among young people, especially in schools, includes characteristics such as “repetition”, “intentionality” and “power imbalance”. The act of bullying can be caused by an imbalance in social status and is often associated with peer pressure. The study aimed to measure whether consumers' material values are reflected in brand bullying and the findings were examined using the structural equation method. According to the results obtained, it was seen that consumers' material values affect brand bullying. The study revealed that brand identity and loyalty have a positive effect on centrality and success values, while brand bullying has a negative effect. In addition, the study is considered important because it can provide a basis for future studies by understanding consumers' behavior in the market and expanding the information in the literature. It is also thought that the study will guide future studies by conducting it on consumers with different demographic and descriptive characteristics.

Authors: Pınar Abdulbaki , Erdoğan Savaş
Published: November 2024

Ülkeler açısından ölçülen ekonomik performans değerleri, uygulayacakları ekonomik politikalar açısından önemli bir yol gösterici konumdadır. Ekonomik performansta, genel olarak ülkeler açısından belirleyici olan makroekonomik göstergeler yardımı ile ölçüm yapılır. 2018 – 2022 yıllarını kapsayan döneme ait, Dünya Bankası veri tabanından elde edilen GSYH büyüme hızı, enflasyon oranı, işsizlik oranı ve cari işlemler dengesinin GSYH’ya oranına ilişkin yıllık veriler kullanılmıştır. Analize konu veriler ile G7 ülkelerinin bu dönemdeki makroekonomik performansları ölçülmüş, performans sonuçlarına göre ülkeler sıralanmış ve bu performansın sergilenmesinde rol oynayan etkenler analiz edilmiştir. Ekonomik performansın ölçümünde öncelikle ele alınan değişkenlerin ağırlıklandırılması CRITIC yöntemi ile yapılmıştır. Daha sonra CRITIC yöntemi ile elde edilen ağırlık katsayıları kullanılarak, Çok Kriterli Karar Verme yöntemlerinden birisi olan TOPSIS yöntemi ile analiz gerçekleştirilmiştir. Böylelikle ele alınan yıllarda G7 ülkeleri elde ettikleri performans puanına göre en başarılı performansı gösteren ülkeden en kötü performansı gösteren ülkeye doğru sıralanmıştır. Çalışma kapsamında CRITIC yöntemi ile yapılan ağırlıklandırma sonucunda G7 ülkeleri için ekonomik büyümenin makroekonomik performansı en fazla etkileyen değişken olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Hesaplanan ağırlık katsayıları kullanılarak TOPSIS yöntemi ile yapılan performans ölçümü sonucunda analize konu yıllarda Almanya ekonomisi en başarılı performansı sergileyen ekonomi olurken, diğer ülkelerin performans sıralamaları yıllar itibariyle değişmiştir.
Türkiye'de Enflasyon ve İşsizlik Arasındaki İlişki: 2002-2023 Dönemi
Authors: Bakkaloğlu Ayşen
Published: November 2024

Bu çalışma, 2002-2023 döneminde Türkiye'de enflasyon (INF) ve işsizlik (UNR) arasındaki karmaşık ilişkiyi araştırmaktadır. Granger nedensellik testleri, Johansen eşbütünleşme analizi ve Vektör Otoregresyon (VAR) modelleri kullanılarak, bu iki temel ekonomik gösterge arasındaki dinamiklerin kapsamlı bir analizinin yapılması amaçlanmaktadır. Bulgular, enflasyon ve işsizlik arasında anlamlı bir kısa vadeli nedensellik olmadığını ortaya koymakta ve kısa vadeli işsizlik eğilimlerini açıklamakta enflasyon oranlarını kullanmanın zorluklarını vurgulamaktadır. Bununla birlikte, Johansen eşbütünleşme analizi değişkenler arasında uzun vadeli bir denge ilişkisine işaret etmekte, kısa vadeli dalgalanmalara rağmen enflasyon ve işsizliğin uzun vadede birlikte hareket etme eğiliminde olduğunu göstermektedir. VAR modeli bu ilişkiyi daha da netleştirerek enflasyona gelen şokların başlangıçta işsizlik üzerinde pozitif bir etkiye sahip olduğunu ve bu etkinin dördüncü dönem civarında zirve yaptıktan sonra kademeli olarak azaldığını göstermektedir. Tersine, işsizlik şokları enflasyon üzerinde minimum etki göstermektedir. Bu sonuçlar, Karahan, Çolak ve Faruk (2000) tarafından yapılan ve uzun vadeli nedensellik olmaksızın kısa vadeli negatif bir ilişki bulan çalışmalar gibi mevcut literatürün bazı yönleriyle uyumludur. Çalışma, işsizlikteki ani artışları önlemek için enflasyonun istikrara kavuşturulmasının önemini vurgulamakta, iyi anlatılmış para politikalarını ve hedefe yönelik mali tedbirleri savunmaktadır. Ayrıca bulgular, işgücü piyasası esnekliğini artırmak ve sürdürülebilir ekonomik büyümeyi desteklemek için kapsamlı yapısal reformlara ihtiyaç duyulduğunu göstermektedir. Sonuç olarak bu çalışma, Türkiye'de enflasyon-işsizlik bağlantısına ilişkin süregelen tartışmalara katkıda bulunmakta ve politika yapıcılara hem enflasyon kontrolü hem de işsizliğin azaltılmasına yönelik dengeli ekonomik stratejiler tasarlama konusunda önemli bilgiler sunmaktadır.

Authors: Kurt Cihangir Çiğdem , Yenice Sedat , Uğurlu Erginbay
Published: November 2024

Bu çalışmanın amacı, finansal dijitalleşmenin Türkiye’de faaliyet gösteren mevduat bankalarının finansal performanslarına ve risk düzeylerine etkisini belirlemektedir. Bankaların kamu sermayeli, özel sermayeli ve yurt dışında yerleşik (yabancı) sermayeli bankalar olarak gruplandırıldığı çalışmada 2007Ç4 – 2023Ç3 dönemine ait veriler ARDL yöntemi ile analiz edilmiştir. Bankaların, finansal sistemin temel unsuru olduğu dikkate alınarak, ekonomik büyüme ve finansal birimlerin ekonomiye güvenini temsil eden tüketici güven endeksi de makroekonomik faktörler olarak analize dahil edilmiştir. Bankaların sahiplerince belirlenen iş modeli finansal performanslarını da etkilemektedir. Özel sermayeli bankalar karı maksimum yapmaya yönelik bir iş modeli belirlerken; kamu sermayeli bankalar sosyal refahı sağlamaya ve/veya sürdürmeye yönelebilirler. Türkiye özelinde finansal dijitalleşme ile bankaların finansal performansı arasındaki ilişkiyi araştıran çalışmalar yapılmasına karşın; bankaların hem sahiplik yapısı hem de risk düzeylerini dikkate alan bir araştırma bulunmaması, bu çalışmanın özgünlüğünü oluşturmaktadır. Çalışmanın bulgularına göre bankaların karlılık ve riski ile finansal dijitalleşme arasında sahiplik açısından özel sermayeli ve yurt dışında yerleşik (yabancı) sermayeli bankaların kamu sermayeli bankalara göre daha duyarlı olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Ayrıca finansal dijitalleşme ile banka riski ve karlılığı arasında negatif yönlü bir ilişki olduğu da belirlenmiştir.
Impact of National Gross Public Debt on COVID-19 Fatality Rates: A Study of European Countries
Authors: Kargı Bilal
Published: November 2024

This study investigates the correlation between high national debt, healthcare spending, and COVID-19 mortality rates across European countries. The hypothesis is that excessive public debt undermines healthcare and socioeconomic systems, increasing vulnerability to crises like the pandemic. Findings support this theory. Countries with lower COVID-19 death rates exhibited lower debt levels and higher per capita healthcare spending compared to those with higher mortality rates. Despite increased debt burdens, countries with higher fatality rates struggled to boost healthcare expenditures, potentially due to austerity measures imposed by the European Union. The Methods section indicates that this study analyzed data from 27 EU member states, examining healthcare and economic indicators from 2009 and 2019 to evaluate their influence on COVID-19 mortality rates. Using descriptive statistics, a t-test, and a two-stage least squares (2SLS) regression model, the study compared pre-pandemic trends in healthcare spending and public debt, aiming to assess the impact of high government debt on healthcare systems' crisis response capacity. The research demonstrates a strong association between increased health spending and reduced COVID-19 mortality rates, even when accounting for debt levels. These results highlight the detrimental impact of high public debt on healthcare systems and their ability to respond effectively to public health emergencies. The study underscores the need to address public debt to build more resilient healthcare infrastructures.

Ventricular Septal Defect, also known as VSD is a rare and life-threatening complication associated with MI. Therefore, it should be immediately diagnosed and treated. Transcatheter closure of the ventricular septal defect is a new alternative treatment approach compared to surgery. In this case, we presented a patient with post-infarct basal ventricular septal defect whose ventricular septal defect was closed using an atrial septal defect closure device. The ability to successfully close such a large defect via catheter is promising for the treatment of patients with VSD.

Published: November 2024

This study evaluates the effects of two months of regular snoezelen therapy on anger-hostility (AH), assessing both psychological and physiological indicators before and after the intervention. Using the Profile of Mood States (POMS-2), the research measured changes in anger-hostility levels and stress responses, comparing pre- and post-intervention data. At baseline, participants exhibited relatively high levels of anger-hostility, with psychological scores averaging 40.14 (± 2.46) and physiological scores averaging 42.25 (± 2.71), indicating significant irritability, aggression, and elevated stress responses. After two months of multisensory stimulation in a snoezelen room, participants’ psychological scores decreased to 37.40 (± 2.26) and physiological scores to 39.50 (± 2.01), suggesting improvements in mood and physiological stress. The statistical analysis yielded a p - value of 0.047, indicating that the reductions were significant. These findings suggest that snoezelen therapy can be effective in reducing anger-hostility and associated physiological stress, offering a promising intervention for emotional regulation and stress management.
Revisit the Resultative Construction in Mandarin Chinese
Authors: Ma Yanxiao
Published: November 2024

This study revisits the syntactic derivation of two resultative patterns in Mandarin Chinese: the compounding resultative and the DE-resultative. A splitting light verb structure is examined in these two patterns, both of which contain multiple adjacent light verbs along with feature inheritance. The v-splitting approach is better than a base-generated structure with two separate v heads. One advantage is that it allows us to formulate the analysis in which the root raises to the light verb v* without violating the head movement constraint. It also works well to explain the specificity of the postverbal argument in the resultative construction.

The goal of the work is to modify the Wiener filter for its use in the presence of spectral-local interference. Spectral-local interference is called distortion of the image spectrum, which occupies limited areas of the spatial spectrum. Moreover, the amplitude levels of the harmonics of the spectrum of these interferences significantly exceed the nearby amplitudes of the spectrum of an undistorted (ideal) image. The modification is made based on the adaptive reference image method. This enhances the ability of the Wiener filter to restore distorted images with unknown additive noise and interference.
Demoras, repeticiones, intermitencias: torsiones recientes de la enunciación videolúdica
Authors: Maté Diego
Published: November 2024

En los últimos años, la estabilización de juegos clasificados como slow, clicker o idler supuso una novedad en la oferta videolúdica. Esas transformaciones pueden ser abordadas desde una perspectiva semiótica y atendiendo al funcionamiento de la enunciación, en tanto los desvíos desarrollados por esos juegos respecto del horizonte de los géneros muestran oscilaciones del jugador-modelo, figura de orden discursivo dominante en la historia del medio. Los casos analizados en este trabajo muestran fluctuaciones de esa figura que pueden caracterizarse siguiendo algunas de sus operaciones elementales: se analizan, así, enunciatarios que se demoran, que se entregan a una tarea única y excluyente o cuya performance resulta intermitente.
FUZZY-BASED ENGLISH WRITING WITH KEY-BASED ASSESSMENT
Authors: Hill Janice
Published: November 2024

Traditional assessment methods in education often rely on rigid grading structures that may fail to capture the nuances of language skills, especially in subjective areas like writing. This article explores how fuzzy logic, a mathematical system that handles imprecision, can enhance English writing assessment by providing a more flexible, holistic view of students' abilities.
Formulation of the problem. English writing is a fairly subjective practice that, due to its interpretative nature, can often present instructors with a challenge when it comes to administering evaluations that are impartial and purely objective. This paper aims to propose a proper way of investing rigor and focus on the core principles of English writing into the process of reviewing student work through the applied integration of mathematics’ fuzzy logic.
Materials and methods. The resources included in this article are a variety of robust and innovative works of academic literature that have proven their relevance and advancement to the field of mathematics and also pedagogical assessment methodology. The primary studies and their respective demonstrations of research are productively referenced throughout this paper to concretely elucidate how fuzzy logic can make a difference in forming adequate feedback for English writing students.
Results. The results point to fuzzy logic-based assessments of English writing having merit that is long overdue in English classrooms.
Conclusions. Overall, this article recognizes that fuzzy logic-based assessments of English writing are a ruthlessly efficient, convenient, and innovative strategic approach to scrutinizing student work with fairness, absence of creative bias, and extensiveness.
Do Not Disturb Filmine Metinlerarasılıkla ve İlişkisel Estetikle Bakmak
Authors: Geçgin Ercan , Doğan Emrah
Published: November 2024

Modern toplumda insana dair çözümlemeler katmanlı bir yapıya sahiptir. Bu katmanlı yapıyı anlamak için çeşitli kavramlar kullanılmıştır. Bu sosyolojik kavramlar, gösteri toplumu, risk toplumu, akışkan modernlik ve dijital çağda enfokrasi terimleridir. Bu terimler, modern insanın kimliğini ve toplumsal ilişkilerini anlamak için bir çerçeve verir. Bu bağlamda Cem Yılmaz’ın filmleri, günümüz dünyasının katmanlı yapısını ve izleyici etkileşimini anlamamız açısından iyi örnekler sunar. Onun Do Not Disturb filminin postmodern bir yapıt olması, başka filmlere göndermelerde bulunması ve dönemin kültürel bağlamını yansıtması nedeniyle bu araştırmaya örnek olarak seçilmiştir. Onun bu filmi, geç modernite çağında ve enformasyon toplumunda farklı kültürel dünyalardan insanların bir mekândaki buluşmalarında ortaya çıkan gerilimleri temsil etmektedir. Filmdeki Ayzek karakteri, onun eserlerinde sıkça görülen bir toplumsal tipi temsil ederken aynı zamanda Türkiye gerçekliğinde akışkan modernitenin bir örneği olarak da değerlendirilebilir. Bu nedenle bu araştırmada, nitel araştırma yöntemlerinden biri olan metinlerarası çözümleme yöntemi kullanılmış, filmdeki göndermeler, alıntılar ve diğer filmlerdeki tema ve motiflerle olan benzerlikler incelenmiştir. Aynı zamanda, kültürel bağlamda dönemin sosyal ve politik dinamikleriyle ilişkisi ve izleyici deneyimi analiz edilmiştir. Sonuç olarak film, yalnızca bir eğlence aracı olmanın ötesinde günümüzün karmaşık sosyal yapısını ve bireysel ilişkileri anlamamıza yardımcı olan önemli bir eser olarak öne çıkmaktadır.

السيدة الزهراء الشاملة أسوة للإنسانية

جميع المخلوقات لها خصائص محددة، الحيوانات والملائكة والبشر، وبين البشر أیضا توجد خصائص مختلفة، البعض يهتم كثيرًا بالقضايا المعنوية والروحية، والبعض بالجوانب الجسدية والمادية والدنيوية؛ البعض ناجح في الحياة الشخصية، والبعض في الحياة الأسرية، والبعض في مجال القضايا الاجتماعية والسياسية، وعادةً ما يهمل الناشطون في مجال النشاط الاجتماعي والسياسي القضايا الروحية، والذين يهتمون بالأمور المعنوية والروحية يظلون غافلين عن الأمور الدنيوية. عادة ما يكون لدى الأشخاص الشجعان والمحاربين العسكريين مشاعر إنسانية ضعيفة، والأشخاص الطيبون والعاطفيون ليس لديهم الشجاعة والمحاربة، ولكن الإنسان الكامل هو الذي له كل الكمالات، فهو مظهر من صفات الله هو الاول والآخر والظاهر والباطن فالإنسان الكامل، فهو خليفة الله، شامل لجميع صفات الجمال والجلال، فهو يتمتع بكل الصفات، ويشمل جميع مستويات الكمال الإنساني، وبالطبع كل البشر لديهم القدرة على تحقيق هذه الكمالات، ولكن الذين يحققون هذه القدرة ويتقنونها قليلون جدًا. ومن جهة أخرى، فكما أنه لا يمكن الوصول إلى ذات الله تعالى، ويستحيل إحاطته بذات وجوده، فإن المعتمدين عليه هم أيضًا في سرية تامة، وليلة القدر مخفية. ﴿إنّا أنْزَلْناهُ في‏ لَيْلَةِ الْقَدْرِ﴾، ﴿إنَّا أنْزَلْناهُ‏ في‏ لَيْلَةٍ مُبارَكَةٍ﴾ ما هي ليلة القدر؟ إنها ليلة مباركة. المباركة هو أحد أسماء الزهراء عليها السلام. قال الامام الصادق (عليه السلام): «مَنْ عَرَفَ فاطِمَةَ حَقَّ مَعْرِفَتِها فَقَدْ أدْرَكَ‏ لَيْلَةَ الْقَدْرِ». فاطمة الزهراء عليها السلام هي تجسيد لجميع صفات الله تعالى، ولذلك تتجلى فيها كل صفات الجلال والجمال. يعتقد البعض أن هذه الصفات متضادة أو متناقضة لكن تلك السيدة النموذجية هي مجموع كل صفات الله من حيث معرفة الله وفهمه والتواصل مع عالم المعنى، وهي في أعلى مستوى يأتي أمامها أعظم خلق العالم وهو جبريل ويقدم المعرفة من الله لخدمتها. ﴿إِنَّ الَّذینَ قالُوا رَبُّنَا اللَّهُ ثُمَّ اسْتَقامُوا تَتَنَزَّلُ عَلَیْهِمُ الْمَلائِکَه﴾. قال الامام الصادق (عليه السلام): وكان جبريل ينزل على جدتنا فخبرها بأشیاء، مع أنه لم ينزل جبريل على جميع الأنبياء ومن ناحية أخرى، عندما تقوم للعبادة، فإنها تؤدي عبادة یباهي الله بها الملائكة، وهي في نفس الوقت كالأم تربي أولادها وتقوم بالأعمال المنزلية في نفس الوقت، وتدخل الساحة السياسية عند الحاجة، وتحارب بشجاعة من كل قلبها، وتدافع عن إمامها، وتحقق أهدافها التي هي أهداف إلهية.
وظيفة الفضائل المتعالية للزهراء عليها السلام في الاقتداء بها
Authors: امید قربانخانی أ.م.د. , محسن رفعت ا.م.د
Published: November 2024

هناك نوعان من الفضائل والفضائل في الروايات والسيرة التي نزلت من حياة الزهراء عليها السلام. احدی هذه الفضائل يتعلق بصفاته الإنسانية، والفئة الثانية هي فضائله المتعالية والفوق إنسانية. وفي دور النمذجة وتلقي نمط الحياة، تتمتع الخصائص البشرية بالقدرة على المتابعة والنمذجة. لكن السؤال الذي يطرح نفسه حول نقل المناقب المتعالية، هل ينبغي تقديمها أيضاً كقدوة أم لا؟ يعتقد البعض أن فضائل السيدة الزهراء (ع) وقدرتها الخارقة حقيقية وأن ذكرها من قبل الأئمة كان حكيماً، وإلا لكانوا قد أخفوها مثل بعض الأشياء الأخرى التي كانت مخفية عن عامة الناس. وعلى هذا فقد تناول البحث الحالي مع المنهج الوصفي التحليلي مشروعية نقل مناقب فاطمة الزهراء سلام الله الخارقة كقدوة لها. و تم التوصل إلى هذه النتائج: 1- قراءة هذه الفضائل في كلام أهل البيت (ع) رخصة لإقتباسها و التوسع فيها. 2- في خلق قدوات من الزهراء (ع) والأئمة (ع)، فإن التعبير عن الخصائص السامية إلى جانب الخصائص الإنسانية يجعل قدوتهم جذابة. 3- نقل هذه الفضائل تسبب خلودها وعبر الزمان والمكان في جسد النموذج، كما أن وجود عناصر خارقة في الأفلام الغربية أو الأساطير التاريخية يجعلها جذابة ويمنعها من التقدم في السن، حتى لا تتقدم في السن مع مرور الزمن ويمكن أن تقتدي بأي جنسية وثقافة. 4ـ إن أحد أسباب أصالة وأصالة نموذج السيدة الزهراء وأسلوب حياتها هو خصائصها المتسامية.
