Authors: Manojlović Pintar Olga
Published: April 2022

From October 20 to 27, 1984, an assembly of the Association of Yugoslav Volunteers of the Spanish Republican Army was held in Sarajevo from which an open letter was sent to the Central Committee of the League of Communists of Yugoslavia. This paper (re)constructs a chronology of events, following the thoughts and activities of Konstantin Koča Popović, which he wrote in his diary (from August 1984 to February 1985) during the preparations for the Sarajevo meeting, as well as his reactions to the talks held by representatives of the CC LCY and members of the Board of the Association. Today, the diary notes of Koča Popović are kept in the Family Fund – Legacy of Koča Popović and Lepa Perović in the Historical Archive of Belgrade.

The Relationship of Indonesian Language Learning with the Environment
Authors: Anggraini Meilani
Published: April 2022

Language has an important role in social life, especially in Indonesian society which is rich in various regional languages. Language is a tool used by people in communicating which they get from the environment. In acquiring language, the main environment that has the most influence on children's language is the family environment. Yogatama (in Ramadhan et al, 2019) says that learning the first language is one of the overall developments of children to become members of a society. The environment is an inseparable part of human life, especially as a source of learning, especially learning Indonesian. In Indonesian language learning, the environment can be a theme that has a positive impact on students' knowledge, values, and attitudes in relation to the environment.

Elevated ASAP1 expression distinguishes basal-like human breast cancer.
Authors: Mamoor Shahan
Published: April 2022

Patients diagnosed with basal-like breast cancer face a more aggressive disease course and more dismal prognosis than patients diagnosed with luminal A and luminal B breast cancer molecular subtypes (1-4). We mined published microarray data (5, 6) to understand in an unbiased fashion the most distinguishing transcriptional features of tumors from patients with basal or basal-like subtype breast cancer. We observed transcriptome-wide differential expression of ArfGAP with SH3 domain, ankyrin repeat and PH domain 1, ASAP1, when comparing tumors of patients with basal-like breast cancer with that of other PAM50 molecular subtypes. ASAP1 mRNA was present at significantly higher quantities in the tumors of patients with basal-like breast cancer. Analysis of patient survival data revealed that ASAP1 primary tumor expression was correlated with overall survival in basal and luminal B subtype breast cancer. Elevated ASAP1 expression appears to distinguish basal-like human breast cancer from the other molecular subtypes.
Effects Of Grip And Finger Strength On Baseball Spin Rate
Authors: Belisario Hugo , Aucoin Dan , Caravan Alex , O'Connell Michael
Published: April 2022

The purpose of this study was to observe the effects of grip and finger strength and hand and finger measurements on generating spin rate on a pitched baseball. Fifty-nine healthy pitchers participated in this study by partaking in grip and finger strength evaluations before throwing each pitch type in their repertoire against a ball-tracking technology unit that measures velocity and spin rate. For fastballs, grip strength shared the strongest relationship with spin rate (r = 0.45; p < 0.001). However, its correlation to SVR or Spin to Velocity Ratio, a more reliable measure when comparing spin rates across different velocity ranges, was weak and insignificant (r = -0.01, p = 0.92). For breaking balls, grip strength (r = 0.25, p = 0.038), index finger length (r = 0.28, p = 0.023), and thumb length (r = 0.37, p = 0.0022) had firm and significant correlations to total spin. As was the case for the fastballs, these variables did not hold significant relationships against Spin to Velocity Ratio. For offspeed pitches, the only statistically significant relationship was shared between hand circumference and Spin to Velocity Ratio (r = -0.34, p = 0.02). The results show that a few relevant measurements share significant relationships with spin rate; however, when spin rate is normalized for velocity (Spin-to-Velocity Ratio) none of these measurements had a statistically significant effect on creating more spin.

Benefits of a cognitive-motor dual-task intervention on anxiety and depression, and on cognitive functions and functional fitness in elderly: A pilot study.
Authors: Lucia Stefania , Forte Roberta , Boccacci Luca , Bittner Marion , Di Russo Francesco
Published: April 2022

Nowadays, generalized anxiety disorders (GAD) appear to be highly prevalent and belong to the most common psychiatric conditions. It is defined as a great excess of worry and less control to manage the worries. Moreover, from the neuroscience perspective, increased anxiety is mainly correlated with dysfunction in several brain networks. This includes the frontoparietal network, which showed a reduction of top-down (endogenous) executive functions (EF) processing in the prefrontal cortex (PFC) and increased bottom-up (exogenous) attention in the parietal cortex. The PFC contributes to a great variety of EF, which are responsible for fundamental skills to manage daily life activities, such as decision-making, controlling attention, and planning. Noteworthy, those functions which are essential cognitive resources, decrease disproportional during the aging process. According to the attentional control theory, anxiety absorbs the resources which would be needed for attentional control, limiting the overall cognitive resources. This results in performance deficits, especially in executive demanded tasks, such as dual-task exercises Hence, few studies have suggested dual-task training as a new approach to stimulate EFs, and further, normalize the activity in the PFC. Dual tasks are highly demanding assignments where individuals must perform two integrated tasks simultaneously, such as a physical combined with a cognitive task. However, the role of physical-cognitive dual-task training to improve cognitive performance is still not well researched yet, especially in people with anxiety and depression. Additionally, considering the psychological perspective, “response-related feedback” (RRF) is one of the various proven mental techniques to enhance performance. With respect to the so-called “constrained action hypothesis”, RRF allows external focus during task execution and supports individuals to better performance, as it directs the person to the effect of the movement instead of the movement itself. Moreover, the external focus leads to an automatic control process avoiding interferences with the natural movement and improving performance stimulated learning. However, at present, there is no evidence about the positive effects of dual-task exercise for older people with anxiety disorder, as well as about the possible effect of RRF on GADs.
Ageism in hiring: A systematic review and meta-analysis of age discrimination

Published: April 2022

We aimed to identify effect sizes of age discrimination in recruitment based on evidence from correspondence studies and scenario experiments conducted between 2010 and 2019. To differentiate our results, we separated outcomes (i.e., call-back rates and hiring/invitation to interview likelihood) by age groups (40-49, 50-59, 60-65, 66+) and assessed age discrimination by comparing older applicants to a control group (29-35 year-olds). We conducted searches in PsycInfo, Web of Science, ERIC, BASE, and Google Scholar, along with backward reference searching. Study bias was assessed with a tool developed for this review, and publication bias by calculating R-index, p-curve, and funnel plots. We calculated odds ratios for callback rates, pooled the results using a random-effects meta-analysis and calculated 95% confidence intervals. We included 13 studies from 11 articles in our review, and conducted meta-analyses on the eight studies that we were able to extract data from. The majority of studies were correspondence studies (k=10) and came largely from European countries (k=9), with the rest being from the U.S. (k=3) and Australia (k=1). Seven studies had a between-participants design, and the remaining six studies had a within-participants design. We conducted six random-effects meta-analyses, one for each age category and type of study design and found an average effect of age discrimination against all age groups in both study designs, with varying effect sizes (ranging from OR = 0.38, CI [0.25, 0.59] to OR = 0.89, CI [0.81, 0.97]). There was moderate to high risk of bias on certain factors, e.g., age randomization, problems with application heterogeneity. Generally, there’s an effect of age discrimination and it tends to increase with age. This has important implications regarding the future of the world’s workforce, given the increase in the older workforce and later retirement.
Interaction between Functional Connectivity and Neural Excitability in Autism: A Novel Framework for Computational Modeling and Application to Biological Data
Authors: Takahashi Yuta , Murata Shingo , Ueki Masao , Tomita Hiroaki , Yamashita Yuichi
Published: April 2022

Functional connectivity (FC) and neural excitability may interact to affect symptoms of autism spectrum disorder (ASD). We tested this hypothesis with neural network simulations, and applied it with functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). A hierarchical recurrent neural network embodying predictive processing theory was subjected to a facial emotion recognition task. Neural network simulations examined the effects of FC and neural excitability on changes in neural representations by developmental learning, and eventually on ASD-like performance. Next, by mapping each neural network condition to subject subgroups on the basis of fMRI parameters, the association between ASD-like performance in the simulation and ASD diagnosis in the corresponding subject subgroup was examined. In the neural network simulation, the more homogeneous the neural excitability of the lower-level network, the more ASD-like the performance (reduced generalization and emotion recognition capability). In addition, in homogeneous networks, the higher the FC, the more ASD-like performance, while in heterogeneous networks, the higher the FC, the less ASD-like performance, demonstrating that FC and neural excitability interact. As an underlying mechanism, neural excitability determines the generalization capability of top-down prediction, and FC determines whether the model’s information processing will be top-down prediction-dependent or bottom-up sensory-input dependent. In fMRI datasets, ASD was actually more prevalent in subject subgroups corresponding to the network condition showing ASD-like performance. The current study suggests an interaction between FC and neural excitability, and presents a novel framework for computational modeling and biological application of a developmental learning process underlying cognitive alterations in ASD.
Covid-19 and the Future of Work
Authors: Ghimire Hiramani
Published: April 2022

Covid-19 is going to have a profound impact on how we manage our work. The increasing tendency to decouple the workforce from the workplace is creating both challenges and opportunities. Amidst fear of decline in staff productivity, experience of this past year shows that employees working from flexible locations, including their own home, are becoming more productive than previously thought. Four major shifts are taking place in the world of work. Firstly, the concept of fixed location of an office is giving way to the idea of flexible locations leading to a reconfiguration of the traditional office. Secondly, managerial focus has moved from efficiency to resilience. Thirdly, control as a management principle is losing ground to trust leading to disintermediation and de-layering of decision-making. Finally, organizational leaders are increasingly emphasizing the need to complement technical skills with social Skills. Much innovation is taking place in all these areas. These shifts are happening not just because of Covid-19. They were already set in motion; the pandemic has accelerated them. Work from home is a good response to the pandemic, but it cannot be an alternative to the office for ever. Going back to the nineteenth century idea of office as a fixed location is neither efficient nor desirable. What we need is a hybrid model. Based on a review of national and international practices adopted as a response to Covid-19, this article argues that the pandemic has given public-sector agencies an opportunity to use available technologies for improving business processes through flexible working arrangements, including the hybrid model. And this process has already started. In many countries, public-sector organizations are catching up with the private sector in terms of introducing the hybrid model. We in Nepal can learn much from this and adapt some of these practices to our specific socio-economic and cultural context.
सङ्‍घीयतामा कानुन निर्माणः अवधारणा र अभ्यास {Law making in federalism: concept and practice}

{Since federalism is not a mechanical concept but a belief and system that is developed, modified and changed according to the relativity and needs of the society, law and policy formulation and implementation show the real practice of federalism. With less than five years of experience in federalism in Nepal, there is still an important opportunity to formulate principles and policies to institutionalize it. Law and policy should be formulated on the premise that federalism is for the people and not for the power and role of the federal units and that federalism protects the overall national interest. Although various questions have been raised in the law-making process of the federal units in the direction of advancing the practice of federalism within the perimeter of constitutional democracy, the situation has not become completely depressing. Legislation of the federal system should be guided by the concepts of constitutional integrity, management of social diversity, interdependence between federal units, accountability of the government, efficiency and national unity. At the same time, it is a fundamental need of Nepal to focus on federalism for the right of the people to be served quickly and easily from their nearest point.}

Pursuing Universal Accessibility for Everyone: The Linguistic Experience at Partition/Ensemble Conference
Authors: Cripps Jody H. , Witcher Pamela E. , McAskill Ash , Germain Kat
Published: April 2022

Universal accessibility (or design) is a trend that promotes accessibility for everyone in various ways. One of its attributes is to ensure that everyone has equal learning opportunities, especially with the ‘access to information’ format. This applies to arranging a conference that includes conference organizers, plenary speakers, performers, conference presenters, and audio describers preparing to provide information and sensorial accessibility to the conference participants. Unfortunately for contemporary conferences, individuals with different needs are likely to experience language barriers due to their linguistic differences, hearing loss, and/or challenges in understanding and/or accessing visual information. A performing arts conference, Partition/Ensemble 2020, hosted by the Canadian Association of Theatre Research, serves as a case study for examining the process of arranging and providing language interpreters and text transcriptions, including audiovisual descriptions. During the COVID pandemic in the summer of 2020, the conference organizers decided to have a relaxed virtual conference. This designation had an impact on the preparation with four languages in different modalities: English (spoken and written), French (spoken and written), American Sign Language (signed), and Langue des signes québécoise (signed). From this linguistic learning experience, individuals who participated in this conference (e.g. conference organizers, plenary speakers, and audio describers) share their thoughts and insights for the implementation of an accessible conference (whether hosted in-person or online) with the goal of reducing language barriers. The authors of this article consider what it means to incorporate a diversity of languages simultaneously with different modalities and the challenges of accessibility with this endeavour.

Thinking through Moving Together
Authors: Meindl Maria
Published: April 2022

Moving Together: Dance and Pluralism in Canada ventures into fraught issues of culture and identity to show how dance, and dance scholarship, can contribute to the evolution of cultural pluralism in Canada. The book explores the history of policies surrounding multiculturalism before talking about how dance may enrich the discussion. It goes on to a series of case studies that touch on Indigenous dance and dance in Quebec and in various diasporic dance communities. Some studies discussthe mixing and encounter of different cultures in dance. My review explores a selection of the book’s chapters that highlight important themes: the essentializing of non-dominant cultures, the issue of cultural appropriation, and the transformative possibilities of dance. Sharing concerns about my own self-congratulatory tendency when it comes to narratives about Canada, I critique the book’s overly optimistic view and its shortage of BIPOC authors. Despite these concerns , Moving Together offers a well-considered sounding of current practices, discourses, and debates.
Stanley Février: Performing the Invisible
Authors: Morelli Didier
Published: April 2022

This article examines how the Québécois artist Stanley Février approached the absence of BIPOC artists exhibited and collected at the Montreal Museum of Contemporary Art (MAC) with three performative projects that successfully forced the institution to revisit its collecting and exhibiting practices. In An Invisible Minority (2018), the artist infiltrated the MAC as a security guard after assessing that this was the only culturally diverse body of employees in the museum. Février then showed an installation at ARTEXTE composed of statistics, comparative charts, and other quantitative data points that highlighted the lack of representation in Montreal galleries and museums. It’s Happening Now (2019) was a guerrilla action organized with other collaborators where performers clad in black skinsuits dragged fifty years of annual reports by the MAC tied to their ankles before shredding them in the museum’s main lobby. In conjunction with these project, MAC-I was created as an alternate, unsanctioned portal to the MAC official website to promote the practices of non-white Québécois and Canadian artists. While Février’s figurative sculptural work has garnered attention, with recent acquisitions by the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts and the Musée national des beaux-arts du Québec, his more immaterial, institutionally critical, performative works remain undervalued and framed as ‘activism’ rather than their own aesthetic events.
Who’s Afraid of Cabaret? A Conversation with Dainty Smith and Golboo Amani

Published: April 2022

A conversation with Dainty Smith and Golboo Amani, the curators of PUSH.PULL: Intersections of QTBIPOC Cabaret and Performance Art, a six-month online series of interdisciplinary events examining emergent and intersectional developments in performance art and QTBIPOC cabaret. As the cabaret stage has traditionally held space for queer bodies to negotiate corporeal boundaries, queer performance has historically taken place on the fringes of popular culture. PUSH.PULL questioned what is considered legitimate art and what is seen as entertainment, by highlighting QTBIPOC cabaret performers as artists at the intersections of live stage performance and radical political performativity. This interview sought to address the question: what is capital P performance art afraid of? What delineates ‘fine’ art from ‘low’ art and those who have been kept at arm’s length from contemporary art?

The Language of Dance, the Dancer’s Eye, and Aesthetic Experience in Mary Wigman’s Hexentanz II
Authors: Tovey Cara
Published: April 2022

Early Ausdruckstanz theory often compared Ausdruckstanz to a language to explain how Ausdruckstanz conveys the deeply personal, self-expressive message to its audience. Using Susanne Langer’s study on expression in art and George Lakoff and Mark Johnson’s work on conceptual metaphors in tandem with early dance theory and Mary Wigman’s Hexentanz II, I argue for a conceptual metaphorical understanding of dance as language. Because dance possesses a physical, indexical connection to its meaning, the language of dance consitututes a series of conceptual, rather than linguistic, metaphors that explain how dance conveys meaning through symbolic form, which for Wigman’s Hexentanz II, I demonstrate, is a radically feminist message. Then, turning from the production of meaning in dance towards the perception of said meaning, using Wigman’s theory of the dancer’s eye, I show how the objective of Ausdruckstanz forms a bond between a dancer and audience, incorporating the audience into the dance and creating a new kinesthetic and aesthetic experience. With this goal in mind, Wigman’s Hexentanz II situates itself in the context of other early avant-garde and modernist movements that sought a complete re-evaluation of perception and aesthetic ideals as a response to modernity.

The system of health-preserving work of the educational institution began to be formed in 1930 with the establishment of the institute of professional training. In 1933, a military department was organized, whose teachers introduced physical education for students. In 1955, the Department of Physical Education was established on a professional basis with five teachers who promoted new forms of health and sports and mass work. According to the results of 1990, 98% of employees and students took the course "Civil Defense" at the Kryvyi Rih Pedagogical Institute. In 1992, the Department of Fundamentals of Medical Knowledge made the last graduation of students majoring in "Medical Training". Among the health disciplines, Valeology was introduced into the curriculum in the early 1990s as separate courses: Fundamentals of Valeology, Fundamentals of Health and Physical Education. According to the Charter of the Red Cross Society of Ukraine, the primary organization of the Red Cross Society was established in 2003 at the Kryvyi Rih State Pedagogical Institute. A "Center for Health and Preservation" was established in 2003 on the basis of the valeology section. In 2005, in-service teacher training courses were organized. Since 1995, the disciplines "Civil Defense" and "Life Safety" have been introduced into the working curricula of the pedagogical institution of higher education. In 2004, an additional specialization "Physical Culture" was introduced in the training of specialists in the specialty "Primary Education" at the bachelor's and master's levels. In the coming years, the section "Valeology" coordinates the work of departments of faculties, other structural units of the educational institution on the formation of students and employees of the institute needs a healthy lifestyle, conducts explanatory and preventive measures provided by the comprehensive program for 2011-2015. In 2017, the Kyiv State Pedagogical University licensed the training of specialists of the first (bachelor's) level in the specialty 014 Secondary Education (Physical Culture) specializing in sports tourism. The study of the introduction of health-preserving technologies in the educational process of Kryvyi Rih State Pedagogical University since 1930 and to the present according to modern and archival documents has determined their compliance with program-normative and organizational principles of state educational policy.

Urban Decay or the Uncanny Return of Dionysus
Authors: Datli Beigi Roohollah , Abbasi Pyeaam , Jannessari Ladani Zahra
Published: April 2022

Written in the familiar genre of ruin poems, Percy Bysshe Shelley’s ‘Ozymandias’ (1818) is well-expressive of the poet’s profound hatred of tyranny. One of the distinctive features of the poem is the vividly visual images it provides of the ruined statue and the desert as the setting of the poem. Focusing on the images of the desert and ruins, and using the concept of urban decay and mytho-archetypal notions, this study attempts to show that the ruins of the poem anticipate the modern phenomenon of urban decay as the return of the repressed in city-forms. However, what the poem presents as destruction, death, ruins and decay is in fact the potential of bringing about spring and regeneration. Reading this poem in the light of the mentioned concepts provides the reader with an understanding of the function of the ruins in Shelley’s poems as an uncanny Dionysian defiance against both the tyranny of his age and the rationalism of the Enlightenment period.

The prologue of Thomas Heywood’s tragicomedy The English Traveller, which was first performed around 1627 and first printed in 1633, seeks to focus the minds of its audience on what is to follow on stage:

A Strange Play you are like to haue, for know,
We use no Drum, nor Trumpet, nor Dumbe shew;
No Combate, Marriage, not so much to day,
As Song, Dance, Masque, to bumbaste out a play: […]

Putting Strangeness in Perspective
Authors: Müller-Wood Anja
Published: April 2022

I consider ‘strangeness’ as a performative phenomenon directly related to the experimental multiperspectivity of the early Stuart stage. As such, it is not a quality ascribed to individual characters, but the norm ruling interactions between them: all characters are strangers to each other. This constellation drives theatrical agon and suspense, turning spectators into privileged witnesses to an all-encompassing strangeness of which characters are often unaware. This theatrical take on strangeness supplements and potentially undercuts contextual and thematic explanations of the early modern stage’s fascination with the odd and exotic. Thus in John Fletcher’s The Island Princess (1621), the conflict between Christianity and Islam ostensibly depicted in this tragicomedy is challenged, if not superseded, by a more existential and ubiquitous notion of strangeness at the play’s core.
Cybersecurity: A New Framework for the Information Economy
Authors: Tehsin Muhammad
Published: April 2022

The government’s role as a digital platform brings with it challenges including the possibility that the freedom of expression and the right to privacy conflict with each other in the digital space. The citizen’s privacy becomes exposed to new vulnerabilities. A citizen’s voice, vote and changes in status, can be stolen or sabotaged with catastrophic individual and national consequences. Individual digital identity also must fall under digital property laws. One citizen’s exercise of free speech can be trespassing of digital space for another citizen. The jurisdiction of the state in digital space must be redefined. The writ of the state in digital space must be more pervasive, and yet more narrowly defined,to protect the rights of all citizens.

Published: April 2022

The Quran is a primary sacred text for all Muslims which provides a basic idea of Islamic legislation and women role in politics. There are numerous verses in the Quran that teaches the followers to understand and support the participation of women in politics in a given context. Hermeneutics of Quran and the gendered public sphere have complex and critical relationships with each other. The sacred religious text of the Quran is interpreted in multiple perspectives depending on socio-cultural and historical context. Society largely reconcile its intellectual tone through interpretation of text and knowledge production. The paper is an attempt to elaborate on the hermeneutics of the Quran in the context of women's politics. There is a contradictory hermeneutical debate on Quranic text on the issue of women existing in the political sphere. Interpretation is a continuous process and deeply embedded in socio-cultural dynamics. Based on a principles of hermeneutics, Quran is considered to be for all times and ages. As per the rhetoric of the 21stcentury, the contemporary hermeneutics of the Quran provides equal human space to all genders.

Published: April 2022

In this study, it is aimed to determine the effects of adding humic acid to ration of Anatolian Merino lambs on the fattening performance and some oxidative stress level by using thiol / disulfide balance measurement method. In the study, singleton 32 male Anatolian Merino lambs with an average age of 2.5 months were used. The experiment was carried out by forming a control group without additives and four trial groups, three of which were added with humic acid (2, 4, 6 g/kg), with 8 replications in each group for a total of 70 days. The lambs housed in the group partitions were fed with 350g/day/head of alfalfa grass as roughage and lamb grower feed ad-libitum containing 2750 kcal/kg DM ME, 16% HP until the end of the trial. At the end of the research; intra-group native thiol (NTL, μmol/L) values increased on the 30 th day (P<0.05) in all groups except the control group, while total antioxidant status (TAS, mmol/L), total thiol (TTL, µmol/L) and disulfide values increased on the 60 th day in all groups including the control group ( P≤0.001) was observed. In terms of lambs' feed consumption, live weights, body weight gains, feed conversion ratios, TAS, total oxidant status (TOS, μmol/L), OSI, TTL, NTL and disulfide was found that there was no significant difference between groups (P˃0.05). It was concluded that the humic acid additive was not effective on the fattening performance, but 4 or 6 g/kg could be added to the lamb rations due to the increase in thiol groups, which have an important role in the antioxidant defense system.
