The Effects of a Physical Education Intervention to Support the Satisfaction of Basic Psychological Needs on the Motivation and Intentions to Be Physically Active
Authors: Franco Evelia , Coterón Javier
Published: November 2017

The aim of the study was to investigate the effects of an intervention to support the basic psychological needs on the satisfaction of these needs, intrinsic motivation, intention to be physically active and some enjoyment-related outcomes in Physical Education. The present study incorporated strategies presented by Standage and Ryan (2012) in a previous study. A quasi-experimental study was conducted with two groups (nexperimental = 30; ncontrol = 23) of 2nd year Secondary Education students aged between 13 and 15 (M = 13.35, SD = .62) by delivering 24 physical education classes. The teacher in the experimental group underwent prior and continual training. The results revealed that the students from the experimental group showed a significant increase in the perception of autonomy and competence. Furthermore, the experimental group showed a greater perception than the control group in the enjoyment related to learning and contents. These results provide information about the efficacy of an intervention programme based on the strategies presented by Standage and Ryan (2012) to foster satisfaction of basic psychological needs and facilitate support for basic psychological needs to promote the development of positive learning-related outcomes.
Middle and Elementary School Students’ Changes in Self-Determined Motivation in a Basketball Unit Taught using the Tactical Games Model
Authors: Harvey Stephen , Gil-Arias Alexander , Smith Megan Lorraine , Smith Lindsey Rachel
Published: November 2017

Studies examining student motivation levels suggest that this is a significant factor in students’ engagement in physical education and may be positively affected when teachers employ alternative pedagogical models such as game-centered approaches (GCAs). The aim of this study was to investigate changes in self-determined motivation of students as they participated in a GCA-basketball unit taught using the Tactical Games Model (TGM). Participants were 173 students (84 girls), 79 middle school (45 girls) and 94 (39 girls) elementary school students from four seventh and five fourth/fifth grade co-educational classes. Two teachers taught 32 (middle) and 33 (elementary) level one TGM basketball lessons. Need satisfaction and self-determined motivation data were collected using a previously validated instrument, while lesson context and teacher behavior data were recorded using systematic observation instruments. Repeated measures MANOVAs were employed to examine pre-posttest differences. Results revealed a significant main effect for time in need satisfaction for both middle (relatedness increased) and elementary school students (autonomy decreased) and a significant main effect in self-determined motivation for middle school students only (introjected regulation, external regulation, and amotivation all increased). Approximately 48%/42% (middle/elementary) of lesson time was game play, 22%/22% skill practice, 17%/17% management, and 13%/19% knowledge. The primary teacher behaviors used were instruction, management, specific observation, corrective feedback and modelling. Results indicate that it is important for future research to pay greater attention to the contextual factors associated with the application of the TGM, such as the students’ previous exposure to TGM lessons, and the teachers’ training and experience in utilizing the TGM. Indeed, results of the present study demonstrate that a longer-term commitment to the TGM is necessary to reduce controlling teacher behaviors, which will lead to positive changes in students’ need satisfaction and self-determined motivation. Future research is therefore needed to embrace this challenge to provide an increased evidence-base for GCAs such as the TGM.

Published: November 2017

The official reports on doping behavior in kickboxing are alarming, but there have been no empirical studies that examined this problem directly. The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence, gender differences and covariates of potential-doping-behavior, in kickboxing athletes. A total of 130 high-level kickboxing athletes (92 males, 21.37 ± 4.83 years of age, 8.39 ± 5.73 years of training experience; 38 women, 20.31 ± 2.94 years of age; 9.84 ± 4.74 years of training experience) completed questionnaires to study covariates and potential-doping behavior. The covariates were: sport factors (i.e. experience, success), doping-related factors (i.e. opinion about penalties for doping users, number of doping testing, potential-doping-behavior, etc.), sociodemographic variables, task- and ego-motivation, knowledge on sports nutrition, and knowledge on doping. Gender-based differences were established by independent t-tests, and the Mann-Whitney test. Multinomial logistic regression analyses were performed to define the relationships between covariates and a tendency toward potential-doping behavior (positive tendency – neutral – negative tendency). The potential-doping behavior was higher in those athletes who perceived kickboxing as doping contaminated sport. The more experienced kickboxers were associated with positive intention toward potential-doping behavior. Positive intention toward potential-doping behavior was lower in those who had better knowledge on sports nutrition. The task- and ego-motivation were not associated to potential-doping behavior. Because of the high potential-doping-behavior (less than 50% of athletes showed a negative tendency toward doping), and similar prevalence of potential-doping behavior between genders, this study highlights the necessity of a systematic anti-doping campaign in kickboxing. Future studies should investigate motivational variables as being potentially related to doping behavior in younger kickboxers.

Published: November 2017

This study investigated the changes in mental strategies across the season and their effects on performance and satisfaction with individual performance. Data were collected three times: at the pre-season at Time 1 (T1; baseline), in the mid-season at Time 2 (T2; two-month follow-up), and at the end-of-season at Time 3 (T3; nine-month follow-up) among male soccer players (N = 97) aged 16-27. Athletes completed the questionnaires assessing the use of nine psychological strategies in competition and the level of satisfaction with individual performance. Endurance performance was measured objectively with a 300 m run. A high level of relaxation (T1) explained better 300 m run performance (T3) and a high level of self-talk explained a higher satisfaction with individual performance (T3). A rare use of distractibility and emotional control (T1) predicted a higher level of satisfaction with individual performance (T3). No predictive role of other psychological strategies was found. The use of emotional control, relaxation, and distractibility increased over the season, whereas the use of imagery and negative thinking declined. Besides the roles of self-talk, imagery, relaxation and goal-setting, the effects of distractibility and emotional control should be taken into account when considering athletes’ mental training programs.
Does Context, Practice or Competition Affect Female Athletes’ Achievement Goal Dominance, Goal Pursuit, Burnout and Motivation?
Authors: Fernández-Rio Javier , Cecchini Jose A. , Méndez-Giménez Antonio
Published: November 2017

The goal of this study was to assess the effects of two different achievement sport contexts, practice and competition, on the motivational profile of professional/semi-professional athletes. Forty-eight Spanish national/international-level female athletes (basketball = 18; handball = 12; soccer = 11; volleyball = 7), mean age 25.14 ± 3.43 years, agreed to participate in the study. They completed a questionnaire, prior and after training and competition, to assess achievement goals, achievement goal dominance, goal pursuit, motivational climate, motivation, burnout and perceived recovery-exertion. Data analyses revealed that, both in practice and competition, these team-sport athletes overwhelmingly showed a strong mastery-approach achievement goal in dominance as well as in pursuit. A significant finding was that this group of national/international-level, professional/semi-professional athletes not only adopted a mastery-approach achievement goal, but they also actively pursued it. It is also remarkable that this profile remained stable at post-tests, even after a painful defeat in competition, which produced a significant negative effect on the athletes’ burnout (emotional and physical exhaustion and devaluation of sport participation) and self-determined motivation. As expected, the difference between total recovery and perceived exertion significantly increased after practice and competition. National/international-level team-sport professional/semi-professional female athletes held and pursue stable mastery-approach goal dominance.

Published: November 2017

Since especially the automotive domain increasingly utilizes multi- and many-core systems, appropriate models, analyses, and tooling are required to address challenges that were nearly non existent so far.
APP4MC is an open source Eclipse platform that provides AUTOSAR compliant common data models namely AMALTHEA, basic parallelization features, visualizations, and the great possibility to add any existing tooling. For example, Eclipse Capra can be added to provide comprehensive traceability throughout the development processes but any proprietary, commercial, open-source, or prototypical implementations can be integrated. The platform enables the creation and management of complex tool chains including performance simulation and validation.
The entire community benefits from reduced hardware costs, faster time to market, higher quality systems, and rapid adoption. APP4MC is not retricted to the automotive domain and utilizable in robotics or generic real-time systems as well.

Az 1367-ben alapított pécsi egyetem első időszakáról igen szűkösek az információink, hiszen maga az egyetem is mindössze néhány évtizedig működhetett. Ez az információhiány különösen fájó, ha az egyetem polgárait vesszük figyelembe, mivel alig maroknyi azon hallgatóknak a száma, akiket név szerint ismerünk, s még ennél is rövidebb az a névsor, mely professzoraiból összeállítható.

A Bécsi Egyetem magyarországi diákjai a középkorban
Authors: Kelényi Borbála
Published: November 2017

This paper discusses the students from the medieval Hungarian Kingdom at the University of Vienna. It is well-known that the majority of the Hungarian students attended the University of Vienna and the research of the topic has been favoured since the list of the students between 1365 and 1526 was published by Anna Tüskés. The researcher accomplished a grandiose work by collecting systematically the data of the 7,213 students from the sources. Anna Tüskés already intended to gather the data about the Hungarian students’ choice of faculty or faculties and about their graduation also. She managed to identify the faculty in the case of 843 students. However, some further databases have come to light since her publication, which allow the expansion of her data. The graduation-list of the faculty of arts e.g. was available previously till 1416, but it was published till 1555 after 2008. 
Consequently this paper aims at collecting the students’ choice of faculty or faculties or their graduation. The examination of the University of Vienna has an outstanding importance for that reason that all the four faculties (arts, law, medicine and theology) were allowed to teach by papal permission. Moreover, the data are especially significant, since almost only the data about the faculty of arts are remained in the case of the University of Kraków, which was the second most popular with the Hungarian students. 
The examination of the newer sources allowed to modify the number of the Hungarian students in Vienna (6,785 persons) and to identify the faculty’s choice of 2,107 attendee. It is beyond doubt, that the most undergraduate gained their degree at the faculty of arts (1,921 persons). The majority of them attended only this faculty. Much fewer Hungarians preferred the faculty of law (349 persons). Infinitesimal students from the Hungarian Kingdom were interested in studying at the faculties of medicine (18 persons) and theology (35 persons). The timelines of the matriculation or graduation at each faculty are similar to the main tendencies, concerning e.g. both to the timeline of the main and first registration of a Hungarian student at the University of Vienna and to the timeline of all Viennese students’ matriculation or graduation.

Bioresorbable Vascular Scaffold in the Midportion of the Left Anterior Descending Artery for Cardiac Allograft Vasculopathy in a Cardiac Transplant Patient
Authors: Lee Felicity J. , Shiekh Imran , Nguyen Thach , Nguyen Michael
Published: November 2017

In an era when cardiac transplant patients are surviving more immediate issues of rejection and infection, the prevalence of more chronic issues such as cardiac allograft vasculopathy (CAV) is rising. This case describes a man 20 years after cardiac transplant with his first presentation of CAV. Acute myocardial infarction was diagnosed on the basis of symptoms and biochemical markers and on coronary angiography, and he was found to have a critical stenosis of the midportion of the left anterior descending artery. It was elected to treat this percutaneously with a fully bioresorbable vascular scaffold (BVS) because of the diffuse nature of the disease process. This was successfully performed with optical coherence tomography guidance. The use of BVS in CAV has not been well studied. This is one of few case reports describing the use of BVS in CAV.
Low-Gradient, Low Ejection Fraction Severe Aortic Stenosis: Still a Management Conundrum
Authors: Carabello Blase A.
Published: November 2017

The management of patients with severe symptomatic aortic stenosis and a high transvalvular gradient is straightforward. It requires aortic valve replacement. Management of aortic stenosis patients with low flow, low ejection fraction and low gradient is fraught. Such patients rarely fulfill all the tenets of “severity” and also have severe left ventricular dysfunction. Both circumstances make the outcome of aortic valve replacement uncertain. Thus the management of this group of patients requires integration of all diagnostic modalities available. The physical examination, degree of valve calcification, the appearance of the valve during sonographic examination and the presence of inotropic reserve all contribute importantly in judging stenosis severity and the likelihood of successful valve replacement.
Misdiagnosed Aortic Intramural Hematoma and the Role of Intravascular Ultrasound Imaging in Detection of Acute Aortic Syndrome: A Case Report
Authors: Mileva Niya , Vassilev Dobrin , Gil Robert , Rigatelli Gianluca
Published: November 2017

Acute aortic syndrome includes classic aortic dissection, aortic intramural hematoma, and penetrating atherosclerotic ulcer – a group of conditions that are defined by their dynamic evolution and similar clinical manifestation. Accurate diagnosis and prompt treatment are essential as all the aforementioned conditions are a significant threat to a patient’s life. However, acute aortic syndrome and especially aortic intramural hematoma may be challenging diagnostic problems. Intravascular ultrasound imaging is a diagnostic method that can be useful for more thorough evaluation of the aortic lesion and can particularly aid in discerning the different forms of acute aortic syndrome. We present a case of a patient with aortic intramural hematoma that was missed by conventional imaging studies but was successfully visualized with intravascular ultrasound imaging.
Doomed to drown? Sediment dynamics in the human-controlled floodplains of the active Bengal Delta
Authors: Rogers Kimberly G. , Overeem Irina
Published: November 2017

The Ganges-Brahmaputra-Meghna (Bengal) Delta in Bangladesh has been described as a delta in peril of catastrophic coastal flooding because sediment deposition on delta plain surfaces is insufficient to offset rates of subsidence and sea level rise. Widespread armoring of the delta by coastal embankments meant to protect crops from flooding has limited natural floodplain deposition, and in the tidally dominated delta, dikes lead to rapid compaction and lowered land surface levels. This renders the deltaic floodplains susceptible to flooding by sea level rise and storm surges capable of breaching poorly maintained embankments. However, natural physical processes are spatially variable across the delta front and therefore the impact of dikes on sediment dispersal and morphology should reflect these variations. We present the first ever reported sedimentation rates from the densely populated and human-controlled floodplains of the central lower Bengal Delta. We combine direct sedimentation measurements and short-lived radionuclides to show that transport processes and lateral sedimentation are highly variable across the delta. Overall aggradation rates average 2.3 ± 9 cm y–1, which is more than double the estimated average rate of local sea level rise; 83% of sampled sites contained sediment tagged with detectable 7Be, indicating flood-pulse sourced sediments are widely delivered to the delta plain, including embanked areas. A numerical model is then used to demonstrate lateral accretion patterns arising from 50 years of sedimentation delivered through smaller order channels. Dominant modes of transport are reflected in the sediment routing and aggradation across the lower delta plain, though embankments are major controls on sediment dynamics throughout the delta. This challenges the assumption that the Bengal Delta is doomed to drown; rather it signifies that effective preparation for climate change requires consideration of how infrastructure and spatially variable physical dynamics influence sediment dispersal on seasonal and decadal time scales.

Dosing of radioactive iodine in end-stage renal disease patient with thyroid cancer
Authors: Bhat Mallika , Mozzor Matty , Chugh Savneek , Buddharaju Vamsi , Schwarcz Monica , Valiquette Guy
Published: November 2017

We describe detailed administration of thyroidal and extrathyroidal doses of radioiodine to a patient with end-stage renal disease on hemodialysis. A thorough description of area under curve measurements in a patient with compromised renal function has rarely been described in the literature. Few publications have described thyroid cancer management of patients on hemodialysis, and we believe our management will aid in patient treatment in the future.

Learning points:

Scheduling of hemodialysis is important when administering radioactive iodine.

Treatment of thyroid cancer with radioiodine in patients with end-stage renal disease requires multidisciplinary approach coordinating dialysis, nuclear medicine and endocrinologists care.

Balancing ideal dosage of I131 and the timing of dialysis to insure maximal thyroidal uptake and minimal extra thyroidal I131 concentration is necessary.
Single Ca2+ transients vs oscillatory Ca2+ signaling for assisted oocyte activation: limitations and benefits
Authors: Ferrer-Buitrago Minerva , Bonte Davina , De Sutter Petra , Leybaert Luc , Heindryckx Björn
Published: November 2017

Oocyte activation is a calcium (Ca2+)-dependent process that has been investigated in depth, in particular, regarding its impact on assisted reproduction technology (ART). Following a standard model of signal transduction, Ca2+drives the meiotic progression upon fertilization in all species studied to date. However, Ca2+changes during oocyte activation are species specific, and they can be classified in two modalities based on the pattern defined by the Ca2+signature: a single Ca2+transient (e.g. amphibians) or repetitive Ca2+transients called Ca2+oscillations (e.g. mammals). Interestingly, assisted oocyte activation (AOA) methods have highlighted the ability of mammalian oocytes to respond to single Ca2+transients with normal embryonic development. In this regard, there is evidence supporting that cellular events during the process of oocyte activation are initiated by different number of Ca2+oscillations. Moreover, it was proposed that oocyte activation and subsequent embryonic development are dependent on the total summation of the Ca2+peaks, rather than to a specific frequency pattern of Ca2+oscillations. The present review aims to demonstrate the complexity of mammalian oocyte activation by describing the series of Ca2+-linked physiological events involved in mediating the egg-to-embryo transition. Furthermore, mechanisms of AOA and the limitations and benefits associated with the application of different activation agents are discussed.
Evidence for Selection-by-Environment but Not Genotype-by-Environment Interactions for Fitness-Related Traits in a Wild Mammal Population

Published: November 2017

To understand how organisms may adapt to environmental changes, it is necessary to determine how environmental conditions influence evolution in wild...

How do environmental conditions influence selection and genetic variation in wild populations? There is widespread evidence for selection-by-environment interactions (S*E), but we reviewed studies of natural populations estimating the extent of genotype-by-environment interactions (G*E) in response to natural variation in environmental conditions and found that evidence for G*E appears to be rare within single populations in the wild. Studies estimating the simultaneous impact of environmental variation on both selection and genetic variation are especially scarce. Here, we used 24 years of data collected from a wild Soay sheep population to quantify how an important environmental variable, population density, impacts upon (1) selection through annual contribution to fitness and (2) expression of genetic variation, in six morphological and life history traits: body weight, hind leg length, parasite burden, horn length, horn growth, and testicular circumference. Our results supported the existence of S*E: selection was stronger in years of higher population density for all traits apart from horn growth, with directional selection being stronger under more adverse conditions. Quantitative genetic models revealed significant additive genetic variance for body weight, leg length, parasite burden, horn length, and testes size, but not for horn growth or our measure of annual fitness. However, random regression models found variation between individuals in their responses to the environment in only three traits, and did not support the presence of G*E for any trait. Our analyses of St Kilda Soay sheep data thus concurs with our cross-study review that, while natural environmental variation within a population can profoundly alter the strength of selection on phenotypic traits, there is less evidence for its effect on the expression of genetic variance in the wild.
“A place where no woman has ever entered…” The unique spiritual heritage of the Athos peninsula in the context of history and present time

It is a beautiful place where no woman has ever entered. This contribution aims to describe and interpret the religious heritage of this spiritually unique place. It is perceived as a protected area and the centre of eastern spirituality. It will be described on the basis of Church history as well as on the basis of personal experience of the author who visited Mount Athos and scientifically explored the sources.
Il significato della metafora di cuore nella spiritualità di Teofane il Recluso (1815–1894)
Authors: Fitsay Pavlo
Published: November 2017

La spiritualita dell cuore di Teofane il Recluso nasce nella tradizione patristica Orientale e anche nella tradizione della Filocalia. Teofane cerca i sentimenti spirituali nella tradizione dei Padri Orientali come gli azioni del cuore come il ragione (in russo “um”). Nella teoria di Teofane il cuore come l’organo spirituale é il punto dell’incontro e relazione tra Dio e l’uomo. Il Cristiano puo “vedere” Dio solo con gli occhi sprituali e con il cuore puro. Teofane dice che il cuore é il posto dove si svolge la lotta spirituale contro le passioni.
Pustelnik jako duchowy pielgrzym – próba pastoralnoteologicznej interpretacji „migracji ascetycznej” w oparciu o dokumenty Kościoła
Authors: Ostrowski Maciej
Published: November 2017

Autor poddaje teologicznej analizie pojęcie migracji ascetycznej pojawiające się w życiu monastycznym. Stara się udowodnić, że niektóre formy życia mnichów przypominają duchową pielgrzymkę. Mnisi wykonują ruch w fizycznej sferze, odchodząc w odosobnione miejsce. Podejmują tam różne formy pokuty. To pozwala im na wejście w głębię swojego serca, poświęcenie się modlitwie i medytacji. Z drugiej strony spojrzenie z dystansu na doczesny świat i służenie światu zdobytą przez siebie mądrością. Autor interpretuje rzeczone pojęcia i formy monastyczne w świetle współczesnych dokumentów Kościoła. Formy realizowane dziś w życiu osób konsekrowanych, zwłaszcza współczesnych pustelników i zakonów kontemplacyjnych, stanowią kontynuację wielowiekowych doświadczeń i tradycji. Są nimi doświadczanie samotności i ograniczenie przestrzeni życia w celu osiągania wyżyn duchowości. Mnisi naśladują Paschę Chrystusa, już dziś duchowo pielgrzymując do radości nieba. Także wysiłek zdążania do świętości jest charakterystycznym elementem ich duchowej wędrówki. Autor wspomina istniejące w historii zjawisko mnichów – pielgrzymów wędrujących dla Chrystusa, głoszących Ewangelię i przyjmujących ciągłą podróż jako formę ascezy, jak też pielgrzymowanie do pustelników, u których szukano wsparcia. Kościół w życiu mnichów – pustelników znajduje wzór dla swej ponadczasowej duszpasterskiej misji. Kościół bowiem jest wspólnotą pielgrzymów, a życie każdego chrześcijanina jest pielgrzymką.

Published: November 2017

With the changes in lifestyle, eating habits and new training methodologies, it becomes important that scientific research fills gaps in anthropometric and nutritional knowledge fields, with the purpose of improving martial arts and combat sports athletes’ physical fitness and performance during competition and training. This study aimed to assess the nutritional status and knowledge in martial arts fighters, and relate it to their perception of body image. We evaluated 37 male fighters, who practiced different forms of martial arts in two academies in west São Paulo. To measure the nutritional status body weight, height and skinfolds were assessed. The perception of body image and nutritional knowledge were also assessed. The sample showed an average of 25 ± 5 years, 84.4 ± 15.78 kg, 1.76 ± 0.07 m and fat percentage of 14.12 ± 5.46. The mean body mass index was 26.95 ± 3.75 kg/m², which means they were overweight. 70.27% of the fighters had moderate nutritional knowledge, 24.32% low knowledge and the remaining 5.41% high knowledge. In relation to the nutritional status, the fighters were mostly overweight and had fat percentage below average, with high body image dissatisfaction and moderate nutritional knowledge.
The study of correlation of silent myocardial ischemia with microalbuminuria in patients of type 2 diabetes mellitus
Authors: Dua Hardeep Singh , Anand Manan
Published: November 2017

Background: Diabetes is a common and serious disease leading to chronic, mostly irreversible macro and microvascular complications.Methods: 50 Patients, attending Diabetic OPD at SGRD hospital, Amritsar. Asymptomatic patients with no symptoms or history of IHD and normal ECG with microalbuminuria were enrolled in the study. A complete clinical examination was done.Results: The prevalence of microalbuminuria increased with worsening glycemic control, as evidenced by prevalence of 74 % in patients with HbA1c of more than 9 percent. The prevalence of microalbuminuria increased with the duration of diabetes, as evidenced by prevalence in 48 % in patients, with duration of diabetes of more than 11 years. The prevalence of microalbuminuria increased with increased in BMI, as evidenced by prevalence of 56 % in overweight Patients. The prevalence of microalbuminuria increased in patients of Diabetic Retinopathy, as evidenced by prevalence of 82 % in patients of Diabetic Retinopathy. In the present study, 70.8 % patients with duration of diabetes in the range 11-15 years had positive treadmill test.Conclusions: Hence, in this study it was observed that longer the duration of diabetes with microalbuminuria, greater is the predisposition for silent myocardial ischemia. In the present study, 64 % of asymptomatic patients with microalbuminuria had a positive treadmill exercise test. Hence, we deduce from this study that microalbuminuria is an independent risk factor for silent myocardial ischemia.

Paso siguiente, se caracteriza la función de preferencias de los expertos, determinando las dimensiones en las que se presentan zonas de aptitudes de ganancia (altas y bajas) y zonas de aptitudes de pérdidas (bajas y altas). Su aplicación a las organizaciones según las simulaciones realizadas, permite mejorar la influencia de las comunidades locales en las decisiones ambientales, teniendo presente los resultados sobre las aptitudes de pérdidas que han experimentado los tomadores de decisiones, ante peticiones externas en las dimensiones tecnológicas y ambientales.
Contributions of Philosophy of Science, in the Perspective of Popper and Lakatos, for the Study of Innovation: An Analysis of the Neoclassical Schumpeterian and Neo-schumpeterian Theories
Authors: Mussi Fabrício Baron , Zembro Andre Da Silva , Melo Aline Alvares
Published: November 2017

El objetivo de este artículo es investigar –a partir de dos criterios de delimitación (Popper y Lakatos) – la cientificidad de la teoría de la innovación. La innovación se analiza a partir de tres temas macro: (i) la corriente neoclásica de la teoría económica; (ii) la introducción de la teoría de la innovación y los manuscritos más recientes de Schumpeter; y (iii) las contribuciones aportadas por la corriente neo-chumpeteriana de la innovación. Se concluye que el tema de la innovación responde a los criterios para categorizar la cientificidad, encontrándose que esto tiene implicaciones en el campo de los estudios sobre el tema en aspectos como: la construcción / transmisión del conocimiento, la evasión del "sentido común", y el uso del "método" como recurso para construir el conocimiento científico.
Emprendimiento verde en torno a la conservación y recuperación del agua y sus espacios en Bogotá y Medellín (Colombia)
Authors: Sanabria Sonia E. , Hurtado Enrique
Published: November 2017

El emprendimiento verde es entendido en este documento, como el desarrollo de actividades orientadas a la mitigación, reducción o eliminación de problemáticas ambientales, las cuales son consideradas de entrada como innovadoras, en la medida en que proponen cambios en los patrones de producción y consumo que deterioran las condiciones naturales del planeta y en el relacionamiento del ser humano con el entorno. En este caso, el objeto de análisis es el emprendimiento verde orientado a la restauración y conservación del agua y sus espacios en Bogotá y Medellín. La investigación desarrollada se sustentó en la aplicación de entrevistas semi-estructuradas a actores de diferente tipo, involucrados en estas actividades. Se consideró que los espacios del agua son bienes comunes, alrededor de los cuales prevalece el sentir general de que pertenecen a todos y a la vez a nadie. Se concluye que un modelo eficaz para lograr su gestión adecuada implica la co-gestión participativa, lo que abre la posibilidad al emprendimiento verde promulgado por diferentes actores. En este sentido, se encontraron emprendimientos promovidos por actores del sector público, empresas privadas, organizaciones sin ánimo de lucro, organizaciones sociales, fondos de agua, entre otros actores; algunos de los cuales intervienen directamente sobre los espacios del agua y otros indirectamente, a través de la optimización del consumo. La intervención en los espacios del agua en Bogotá y Medellín ha generado impactos positivos, no obstante, los esfuerzos aún son muy incipientes y de alcance local, teniendo en cuenta la extensión de los espacios del agua en el territorio.
Derechos de propiedad intelectual (DPI) y crecimiento económico: una revisión
Authors: Tejedor Estupiñán Ricardo Alonso , Gil León José Mauricio , Tejedor Estupiñán Joan Miguel
Published: November 2017

Este artículo analiza los efectos de los Derechos de Propiedad Intelectual (DPI) sobre el crecimiento económico de los países, donde una mayor protección incentiva procesos de innovación que inciden sobre el mayor avance de la producción. En el desarrollo analítico del trabajo se toma como marco teórico el modelo de crecimiento endógeno de Romer (1991), el cual explica los fundamentos de cómo la formación de conocimiento conduce a que las economías eleven sus niveles de desarrollo. Para dar sustento  a lo expuesto,  se encuentra en la literatura, diferentes trabajos en los que se ha comprobado la importancia de los PDI. Finalmente, tomando una muestra de países entre 1990 y 2014 se concluye que el gasto en formación de conocimiento complementado con mayor protección en DPI conduce a que exista un mayor crecimiento económico per cápita, pero lo fundamental resulta ser el gasto en I+D y no el capital humano definido como el porcentaje de la población con educación superior

 Objective: The purpose of this article is to describe the process of conducting an assessment of neighborhood perceptions and cohesion by a community coalition-academic team created in the context of community-based participatory research (CBPR), to guide the design of locally rel­evant health initiatives.

Methods: Guided by CBPR principles, a collaborative partnership was established between an academic center and a lo­cal, urban, underserved neighborhood in Birmingham, Alabama to identify and address community concerns and priorities. A cross-sectional survey was conducted in September 2016 among community residents (N=90) to examine perceptions of neighborhood characteristics, including so­cial cohesion and neighborhood problems.

Results: The major concerns voiced by the coalition were violence and lack of neigh­borhood cohesion and safety. The com­munity survey verified the concerns of the coalition, with the majority of participants mentioning increasing safety and stopping the violence as the things to change about the community and the greatest hope for the community. Furthermore, results indicated residents had a moderate level of perceived social cohesion (mean = 2.87 [.67]).

Conclusions: The Mid-South TCC Aca­demic and Community Engagement (ACE) Core successfully partnered with community members and stakeholders to establish a coalition whose concerns and vision for the community matched the concerns of residents of the community. Collecting data from different groups strengthened the interpretation of the findings and allowed for a rich understanding of neighborhood concerns.

Resistência estudantil e censura nos anos de Chumbo
Authors: Muller Angélica
Published: November 2017

Este artigo pretende mostrar porque foi possível o Movimento Estudantil ser pioneiro na luta aberta pela redemocratização. Entre outros pontos, este procura mostrar, contrariamente do que é reforçado pela historiografia, que o ME continuou mobilizado durante os “anos de chumbo”, praticando uma resistência contra o regime militar. Esta resistência permitiu que o movimento fosse o primeiro ator político a retornar às ruas em prol da redemocratização do país.
Patologias congênitas das Instituições de 1988
Authors: Moraes João Quartim
Published: November 2017

Tanto na luta política quanto na publicidade comercial, fórmulas bem escolhidas conferem qualidades imaginárias a produtos de conteúdo duvidoso. Quando lançada por Tancredo Neves, candidato da oposição à presidência, num discurso em Vitória, em novembro de 1984, a expressão ”Nova República” tinha um claro sentido de ruptura com a ditadura e de construção de novas instituições: “Restaurar a democracia é restaurar a República. É edificar a Nova República, missão que estou recebendo do povo e se transformará em realidade pela força não apenas de um político, mas de todos os cidadãos brasileiros”. A fórmula ”pegou”, mas foi logo abastardada pelos espertalhões mediáticos, notadamente a Rede Globo.
A democracia Brasileira, reforma do estado e os desafios para o exercicio do controle social
Authors: Serafim Lizandra
Published: November 2017

O presente ensaio tem como objetivo dialogar com o tema da democratização brasileira a partir das questões que surgem no debate em torno da participação cidadã e do controle social em pesquisas das quais participei ou tive contato direto, e na própria agenda de movimentos sociais e outras organizações da sociedade civil com as quais tenho dialogado nos últimos anos. A intenção não é, portanto, apresentar puramente resultados de pesquisa, mas suscitar algumas dentre várias questões que compõem esta agenda política e de pesquisa, e que devem ser enfrentadas na construção democrática e análise de mecanismos de participação cidadã e controle social.
Nota Crítica sobre Cidadania no Brasil
Authors: Silva Josué Pereira da
Published: November 2017

O artigo discute o tema da cidadania no Brasil. Com base na análise de um seleto conjunto de textos, o artigo identifica duas concepções básicas de cidadania: uma mais preocupada com a questão da desigualdade social e outra que enfatiza mais o processo de construção da cidadania pelos movimentos sociais. Ambas mantêm uma relação ambivalente com o modelo de cidadania de Marshall enquanto deixa quase intocada a noção de cidadania social, que é sua principal contribuição. E, por fim, conclui que tal omissão é precisamente o que dificulta a formulação de uma noção crítica de cidadania adequada à realidade brasileira.
A democracia Brasileira e os jovens: com uma curta inferência gramsciana
Authors: Angeli José Mario
Published: November 2017

O ponto de partida para refletir a democracia brasileira nos últimos quarto de século pretendendo resolver os problemas da sociedade – a miséria social e da democracia política – pela via capitalista, implica na compreensão do significado do modelo vigente democrático. O comportamento da democracia e suas instituições forjados ao longo do período de ditadura militar na forma de Estado e do regime político, expresso na Constituição de 88 mantém o país “no rol das democracias limitadas” (Saes, 2001).

Heidegger e a Possibilidade de um Humanismo Pós-metafísico
Authors: Santos Luciano Campos dos
Published: November 2017

Este artigo objetiva expor algumas idéias da carta de Heidegger Sobre o Humanismo e apresentar a sua proposta de um humanismo pós-metafísico, no qual a essência do homem – concebida como ec-stática e relacional –  deve ser levada à sua plenitude pela “simplicidade” da ação de pensar. A abordagem – aqui visada – da idéia heideggeriana de realização da essência do homem a partir de uma relação originária com o ser pretende, outrossim, questionar o alcance da proposta humanista heideggeriana, em seus desdobramentos éticos.
Capital, Trabalho e Intelligentsia – Modernização e Desenvolvimento no Pensamento De Celso Furtado
Authors: Cêpeda Vera Alves
Published: November 2017

O objetivo deste trabalho é analisar alguns aspectos presentes no projeto furtadiano de desenvolvimento planejado que implicam numa contribuição única da obra desse autor para o pensamento social e político brasileiro. Pretendo destacar: 1) a implicação de sua teoria do subdesenvolvimento em direção ao status de uma teoria da modernização (teoria do desenvolvimento); e 2) diferenciar a proposta de desenvolvimento furtadiana do conjunto histórico do modelo desenvolvimentista das décadas de 50 e 60, destacando seu caráter inovador. Neste último ponto os elementos fundamentais são o peso da mudança institucional (papel da democracia) enquanto motor do desenvolvimento e a subversão dos lugares ocupados pela ação do capital e do trabalho na construção efetiva de um desenvolvimento global e consistente.
Carreiras Políticas no Brasil: Amadores e de Passagem nas Camaras Municipais de SP e RJ
Authors: Maluf Rui Tavares
Published: November 2017

O presente artigo é o resultado de uma pesquisa que desenvolvi sobre a carreira política no Brasil, tendo como campo de estudo duas câmaras municipais, a saber, as de São Paulo e Rio de Janeiro, que são as duas maiores do País em número de vagas. A partir dos dados coletados, o texto problematiza a visão tradicional da carreira política, que tem como objeto de análise a Câmara de Deputados. Tal interpretação, por sua vez, tende a concluir que a carreira tem início no município.  Minha conclusão é que se faz forçoso admitir carreiras políticas no plural, pois a diversidade é a marca da vida das pessoas que se ocupam da política.
