Authors: Abuan Oscar , CORPUZ RHEM RICK , Cruz Renel , Deles Edelito
Published: December 2023

Abstract: Unruly passenger behavior poses a significant challenge to the airline industry, affecting safety, security, and customer satisfaction. Ground staff play a crucial role in managing these behaviors, and their perceived competence is pivotal in shaping passengers' overall experiences. Passengers' perception of ground staff competence depends on factors such as staff knowledge of airline policies, de-escalation techniques, and their projection of confidence in handling unruly passengers. Airlines have an opportunity to enhance ground staff competence through comprehensive training, clear policies, and a culture of support and teamwork. The study aims to assess and describe the perceived competence of ground staff in dealing with unruly passenger behavior at Manila International Airport Authority airports. A quantitative research design used a survey as the primary data collection method. Stratified and convenience sampling methods were combined to select 1,475 respondents, representing a diverse sample. Data was analyzed using mean scores, standard deviation, and variance to assess the perceived competence of ground staff. The data suggests that ground staff generally exhibit competence in dealing with unruly passenger behavior. However, competence may vary in specific situations, such as when passengers exploit minor anomalies or use their social status for additional services. Overall, ground staff are perceived as competent, particularly in handling passengers displaying potentially violent tendencies. The findings of this study reveal that ground staff at Manila International Airport Authority airports are generally perceived as competent in handling unruly passenger behavior. While competence may vary in specific situations, such as when passengers exploit minor anomalies, overall, ground staff are well-equipped to ensure passenger safety and a smooth travel experience. The study highlights the importance of ongoing investment in staff training and resources to improve the competence of ground staff in addressing unruly passenger behavior, ultimately contributing to passenger satisfaction and safety.

Nogle iagttagelser af retoriske træk i danske hadbeskeder
Authors: Moeslund Ahlgren Liv
Published: December 2023

Hadbeskeder er hadefulde, forhånende eller generelt chikanerende beskeder, som sendes til offentligt kendte personer, men på trods af at de efterhånden er et grundvilkår for disse personer, findes der meget lidt sprogvidenskabeligt funderet forskning i dem. I dette studie analyseres 49 autentiske hadbeskeder, og beskedernes retoriske træk og overordnede kommunikative formål kortlægges. Det vurderes, at beskedernes kommunikative formål er at nedværdige modtageren, at gøre gengæld (retaliation) og at manipulere afsenderen og modtagerens magtforhold. Der identificeres 17 retoriske træk, hvoraf hadbeskederne altid indeholder enten Fordømme karaktertræk, Verbal disciplinering, Kritisere opførsel i konkret situation eller Ønske modtager ondt. De fleste af trækkene bidrager til de overordnede kommunikative formål. Udover at give en forståelse af, hvordan hadbeskeder sprogligt er opbygget, kan resultaterne pege på nogle af de sociale og emotionelle mekanismer, der ligger bag beskedernes tilblivelse.
Kan man måle opfattelsen af andetsprogets lyde?
Authors: Søballe Horslund Camilla , Villumsen Jonas
Published: December 2023

At lære et andetsprogs udtale er svært. Ifølge det dominerende paradigme i andetsprogsfonologien er årsagen til dette, at lørnere forveksler lyde fra andetsproget med lyde fra modersmålet, også selvom disse er forskellige. Dette fænomen undersøges ofte i fonologiske test, hvor lørnere bedes identificere eller skelne mellem ord, der indeholder de problematiske sproglyde. Formålet med sådanne tests er at generalisere om opfattelsen af selve lydene, også selvom det ofte faktisk er ord, deltagerne lytter til. Men kan man adskille opfattelsen af enkelte lyde fra genkendelsen af de ord, de indgår i? Denne diskussionsartikel argumenterer for, at eksisterende fonologiske test står over for tre udfordringer: (1) at ekskludere ordgenkendelse fra testen; (2) at ekskludere skriftsproglige indflydelser i testen; (3) at balancere 1 og 2 med, hvor meget testens procedure afspejler normal taleopfattelse. Der argumenteres for, at alment anvendte test, eksemplificeret med studier af danske lørnere af engelsk, opfylder disse tre krav dårligt, hvilket kan lede til fejlfortolkninger, der kan skævvride vores forståelse af lørneres processering af andetsprogets lyde.

Let Us All Sing!An Investigation of Metareferentiality in Hymn Singing from an Intermedial Perspective
A number of hymns in The Danish Hymnal thematize the act of singing hymns together, thus incorporating a metareferential dimension. This article examines the significance and impact of this metareferentiality on the analysis of such hymns and for the understanding of the social context and practices they are embedded in.
The theoretical framework for examining metareferentiality within a musical context is based on Werner Wolf’s definition, which characterizes metareferentiality as a form of self-reference that implies a reflection on the work’s media per se. It is argued that when applied to hymns and songs, this definition must be complemented with Lea Wierød Borčak’s view of hymns as both an emergent intermedial fusion of text and music and as a social practice.
Building on this theoretical point of departure, this article analyzes the metareferential hymn ”Guds Menighed, syng for vor Skaber i Løn” (1847) written by N. F. S. Grundtvig. The analysis investigates the influence of metareferentiality on both the internal meaningmaking of the hymn and the social practice by exploring the connection between the hymn and the folk song ”Harpens Kraft”, to which the text is set. I show that the metareferentiality is closely linked to the emergent intermedial and social character of the hymn, as the metareferences are only actualized through a concrete, situated act of singing.
Finally, the article discusses the function of metareferentiality in a wider context, where it can be seen as compensatory for absence or social uncertainty. In a historical context, this may add interesting perspectives on N. F. S. Grundtvig’s ideas, where metareferential hymns may be viewed as concrete tools for strengthening communal singing.

Protein UFMylation downstream of the E1 enzyme UBA5 plays essential roles in development and endoplasmic reticulum stress. Variants in the UBA5 gene are associated with developmental and epileptic encephalopathy 44 (DEE44), an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by early-onset encephalopathy, movement abnormalities, global developmental delay, intellectual disability, and seizures. DEE44 is caused by at least 12 different missense variants described as loss of function (LoF), but the relationships between genotypes and molecular or clinical phenotypes remain to be established. We developed a humanized UBA5 fly model and biochemical activity assays in order to describe in vivo and in vitro genotype–phenotype relationships across the UBA5 allelic series. In vivo, we observed a broad spectrum of phenotypes in viability, developmental timing, lifespan, locomotor activity, and bang sensitivity. A range of functional effects was also observed in vitro across comprehensive biochemical assays for protein stability, ATP binding, UFM1 activation, and UFM1 transthiolation. Importantly, there is a strong correlation between in vivo and in vitro phenotypes, establishing a classification of LoF variants into mild, intermediate, and severe allelic strengths. By systemically evaluating UBA5 variants across in vivo and in vitro platforms, this study provides a foundation for more basic and translational UBA5 research, as well as a basis for evaluating current and future individuals afflicted with this rare disease.

Malaria remains a global public health challenge. The disease has a great impact in sub-Saharan Africa among children under five years of age and pregnant women. Malaria control programs targeting the parasite and mosquitoes vectors with combinational therapy and insecticide-treated bednets are becoming obsolete due to the phenomenon of resistance, which is a challenge for reducing morbidity and mortality. Malaria vaccines would be effective alternative to the problem of parasite and insecticide resistance, but focal reports of polymorphisms in malaria candidate antigens have made it difficult to design an effective malaria vaccine. Therefore, studies geared towards elucidating the polymorphic pattern and how genes targeted for vaccine design evolve are imperative. We have carried out molecular and genetic analysis of two genes encoding vaccine candidates—the Plasmodium falciparum cell traversal ookinetes and sporozoites (Pfceltos) and P. falciparum reticulocyte binding protein 5 (Pfrh5) in parasite isolates from malaria-infected children in Ibadan, Nigeria to evaluate their genetic diversity, relatedness and pattern of molecular evolution. Pfceltos and Pfrh5 genes were amplified from P. falciparum positive samples. Amplified fragments were purified and sequenced using the chain termination method. Post-sequence edit of fragments and application of various population genetic analyses was done. We observed a higher number of segregating sites and haplotypes in the Pfceltos than in Pfrh5 gene, the former also presenting higher haplotype (0.942) and nucleotide diversity (θ = 0.01219 and π = 0.01148). In contrast, a lower haplotype (0.426) and nucleotide diversity (θ = 0.00125; π = 0.00095) was observed in the Pfrh5 gene. Neutrality tests do not show deviation from neutral expectations for Pfceltos, with the circulation of multiple low frequency haplotypes (Tajima’s D = −0.21637; Fu and Li’s D = −0.08164; Fu and Li’s F = −0.14051). Strong linkage disequilibrium was observed between variable sites, in each of the genes studied. We postulate that the high diversity and circulation of multiple haplotypes has the potential of making a Pfceltos-subunit vaccine ineffective, while the low genetic diversity of Pfrh5 gene substantiates its evolutionary conservation and potential as a malaria vaccine candidate.
The accuracy of Fiber-Optic Raman Spectroscopy in the detection and diagnosis of head and neck neoplasm in vivo: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Authors: Chen Wen , Chen Yafei , Wu Chenzhou , Zhang Xidong , Huang Xiaofeng
Published: December 2023

Purpose

The aim of this article was to review and collectively assess the published studies of fiber-optic Raman spectroscopy (RS) of the in vivo detection and diagnosis of head and neck carcinomas, and to derive a consensus average of the accuracy, sensitivity and specificity.

Methods

The authors searched four databases, including Ovid-Medline, Ovid-Embase, Cochrane Library, and the China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), up to February 2023 for all published studies that assessed the diagnostic accuracy of fiber-optic RS in the in vivo detection of head and neck carcinomas. Nonqualifying studies were screened out in accordance with the specified exclusion criteria, and relevant information about the diagnostic performance of fiber-optic RS was excluded. Publication bias was estimated by Deeks’ funnel plot asymmetry test. A random effects model was adopted to calculate the pooled sensitivity, specificity and diagnostic odds ratio (DOR). Additionally, the authors conducted a summary receiver operating characteristic (SROC) curve analysis and threshold analysis, reporting the area under the curve (AUC) to evaluate the overall performance of fiber-optic RS in vivo.

Results

Ten studies (including 16 groups of data) were included in this article, and a total of 5365 in vivo Raman spectra (cancer = 1,746; normal = 3,619) were acquired from 877 patients. The pooled sensitivity and specificity of fiber-optic RS of head and neck carcinomas were 0.88 and 0.94, respectively. SROC curves were generated to estimate the overall diagnostic accuracy, and the AUC was 0.96 (95% CI [0.94–0.97]). No significant publication bias was found in this meta-analysis by Deeks’ funnel plot asymmetry test. The heterogeneity of these studies was significant; the Q test values of the sensitivity and specificity were 106.23 (P = 0.00) and 64.21 (P = 0.00), respectively, and the I2 index of the sensitivity and specificity were 85.88 (95% CI [79.99–91.77]) and 76.64 (95% CI [65.45–87.83]), respectively.

Conclusion

Fiber-optic RS was demonstrated to be a reliable technique for the in vivo detection of head and neck carcinoma with high accuracy. However, considering the high heterogeneity of these studies, more clinical studies are needed to reduce the heterogeneity, and further confirm the utility of fiber-optic Raman spectroscopy in vivo.

Madness, Rejection and Violence in Cormac McCarthy’s Child of God
Authors: Segura Chávez Gustavo
Published: December 2023

The following paper aims to analyze the relationship between social violence and madness present in Cormac McCarthy’s novel Child of God. The analysis focuses on the novel’s protagonist, Lester Ballard, as a man who becomes an outcast of society and is forced to live outside the social order. Ballard becoming a murderer is the direct result of the social violence perpetrated against him. However, this violence is never seen as such because society has created an objectified image of Ballard as a madman that dictates that he deserves thispunishment. The image of the madman is analyzed from the perspective of Foucault’s Madness and Civilization. Foucault’s madman is able to see that this prejudice against madness is a symptom of humans’ impossibility to understand each other, which reveals that the social system is an illusion, like the symbolic order Ballard creates with the corpses of those he murdered.
Forbidden Aspect of Erotic Desire Embodied in the Figure of the Vampire in “Carmilla” and “Olalla”
Authors: Armijo Quiroz Camila
Published: December 2023

During the Victorian period, there was a dichotomy for women. On the one hand, there was the image of an “Angel of the House”, who was basically the submissive wife within a strongly patriarchal system. On the other hand, women could also be portrayed as monsters/prostitute because they refused to fulfill the role of a perfect wife and preferred to have an uncontrollable sex desire. This research will focus on the analysis of women as “monsters” by using the nineteenth-century vampire stories “Olalla” by Robert Louis Stevenson and “Carmilla” by J. Sheridan Le Fanu. These two works will provide an exploration into the forbidden or transgressive aspects of erotic desire embodied in the figure of the vampire, precisely, female vampire. Throughout this study, there are several transgressive elements depicted in the characters of Olalla andCarmilla. Firstly, those monsters are sexually empowered characters, Olalla and Carmilla posses a sex desire that should not be acceptable for a woman. Secondly, the short stories clearly establish a ‘role reversal’ in therelationships with their human partners, that is to say, the female vampires take the active role since their fangs are the elements of penetration (like a phallus) whereas their lovers take the passive role. And thirdly, the sexual orientation is considered transgressive, particularly, in Le Fanu’s “Carmilla” that presents a homosexual relationship with a female friend, Laura.
The Rise of the Feminine Voice in Thomas Hardy’s “An Imaginative Woman”
Authors: Gómez Vera Vanessa
Published: December 2023

This present article deals with the idea of the feminine voice in Thomas Hardy’s short story “An Imaginative Woman”. As a naturalist writer, Hardy portrayed women’s faith as tragic and obscure; this how Ella Marchmill, Hardy’s heroine, encounters nothing but doom and disease when trying to free herself from herascribed duty as the “Angel of the house”. However, it is through her narration that she can challenge the social impositions that were place upon women; their public role and their intimacy. The concept of the“New Woman” rises as a feminine figure that opposes these constraints: a woman who speaks her mind and explores her sexuality by means of her imagination, the only place that does not surrender to male domination
Curiosidad, ciencia y transgresión moral en Christopher Marlowe: el beso entre Helena de Troya y Dr. Fausto
Authors: Hoecker Gil Gabriel
Published: December 2023

La figura faústica marlowiana elevó a una situación trágica la infamia medieval por sed de conocimiento dispuesta a cualquier cosa por satisfacerse. Si bien la personalidad poética de Fausto fue finalmente condenada, su vida deja instalada la duda de si el espíritu que se entrega por completo a su impulso más genuino, es del todo pecaminoso. La transfiguración de la curiositas de vicio medieval a virtud moderna despojó su carga maligna transformándose en uno de los elementos fundamentales para la fundación de la ciencia moderna en términos éticos, sosteniéndose en presupuestos teológicos medievales para su legitimación. A continuación, pretendemos indagar en aquellas tentaciones sensuales desarrolladas en la obra, que el pensamiento medieval juzgó como parte de los intereses superfluos que seducían a la curiosidad, a partir de la interpretación de dos momentos de la pieza dramática: la danza de los pecados capitales y el encuentro erótico con Helena de Troya.
Whither the Novel?
Authors: Correa Alfaro Melanie
Published: December 2023

In his novel The Information (1995), British novelist and essayist Martin Amis criticizes the contemporary literary world, through both form and content—its structure and its characters’ ideas. Although the novel presents several postmodernist traits, blurring the limits between its author and its narrator, it mostly deals with the loss of control of the author (and the narrator), and the ever higher efforts that must be made by readers, resulting in commercially successful but low-quality literature being eventually more read than the literary works usually accepted by the academic canon. This direction may open the discussion about the fate of literature as viewed by writers themselves.
