Metaphorization of Tactile Gestures in Russian
Authors: Yurina Elena , Shlotgauer Elena
Published: December 2024

The article discusses the study of processes involved in the formation and representation of ideas about tactile gestures in language. These gestures, being a part of a person’s physical experience, convey communication-relevant information, and are known as physical communication signals. The article examines models for figurative interpretations of situations involving physical interaction, which are expressed in a language through verbs with the semantic meaning of physical impact, as well as various linguistic units that reflect the results of physical perception. The study considers the cases of metaphorical usage of verbs denoting physical contact (trogat’ (touch), gladit’ (stroke), teret’ (rub), shlepat’ (slap), etc.), verbs derived from them, words of other parts of speech (schekotlivyi (ticklish), tsarapina (a scratch)), as well as the semantics of the phraseological expressions that include the above mentioned units (gladit’ po sherstke (stroke the fur), trogat’ za dushu (touch the soul) etc.). The material is organized according to the lexico-phraseological field of “Tactility”, which is divided into subfields based on the type of physical contact: touch, movement on a surface, forceful action, irritating effect, and compressive effect. Within each subfield, the elements are connected through derivational and motivational relationships. As a result, specific spheres of metaphorical mapping, such as “Human”, “Society”, and “Material world”, are identified and described. It has been determined that the cognitive foundation for metaphorical mappings is based on the nature of physical interactions (compression, sliding, pressure, irritation, etc.). The evaluative component of physical metaphors stems from associations with pleasant or unpleasant physical and emotional experiences that arise during or as a result of the interaction between subjects.

Authors:   Baku State University, ABDULLAYEV S.K. , GOJAYEV M.SH. ,   Baku State University
Published: December 2024

Within the framework of the Standard Model, the process of associated production of the Higgs boson and g-quantum during muon-antimuon annihilation is investigated: μ-μ+ → H γ. Taking into account the longitudinal polarizations of the muon-antimuon pair and the circular (linear) polarization of the g-quantum, expressions are obtained for the differential and integral cross sections of the process, corresponding to the top quark and W -boson loop diagrams. An expression for the degree of circular (linear) polarization of the g-quantum is found and the dependence of these characteristics, as well as the effective cross section of the reaction μ-μ+ → H γ, on the emission angle qg and energy of the muon-antimuon pair s1/2 is studied in detail.
Obituaries to Nikolay Karamzin: The formation of the writer’s posthumous image in the literary process of the 1820s

One of the main elements in the formation of a posthumous literary reputation in the first half of the 19th century was an obituary to a writer. However, the effectiveness of its use always depended on the contemporary situation within the literature of the period when the need arose to perpetuate a writer’s name. The literary process, gradually becoming more complex during the first half of the 19th century, also problematized the poetics of the obituary statement. For example, the lack of consensus on reputation led to lengthy disputes and made it difficult to enter the national canon. This was precisely the nature of the discourse around the death of Nikolay Karamzin, one of the most significant authors of the turn of the 19th century. The material of the study was obituaries to Karamzin published in May–June 1826 in Moskovskiy Telegraf, Vestnik Evropy, Damskiy Zhurnal, and Severnaya Pchela. Each of them is analyzed to reveal the key intention and describe the features of poetics. The obituaries offered wellthought-out and varied models: a messianic biographical narrative by N.A. Polevoy, a personality essay by M.T. Kachenovsky, an intimate remark by P.I. Shalikov, finally, an analytical review by N.I. Grech. Differing in approaches, these texts fixed in memory a very close set of motifs: human dignity, nobility and attractiveness, a concentrated study of literature and history, transformation of language and literature, discovery of national history, recognition of merits by society and the court. All these motifs will continue to determine Karamzin’s memorial discourse. Nevertheless, the collective opinion turned out to be dissatisfied with the obituaries, and statements of contemporaries literally disavowed them, either assessing them directly negatively, or simply ignoring them. Thus, in the presence of the initial posthumous image of Karamzin created by obituaries and the formed general opinion about the significant place of the writer in the national literary pantheon, the final canonization did not occur. This shows that the memorial culture of the system of friendly communities in the 1820s in functional terms was not always effective, despite the fact that this system itself was on an obvious rise.
Answers to five questions posed by Shakarim from Molavi’s worldview
Authors:   Al-Farabi Kazakh National University, Kudaibergenova Gulbahyt
Published: December 2024

This article is written in a comparative literature context in addressing questions by Shakarim (1858–1931), the mystic poet of Kazakh nation, as he forwarded on anthropology and self-knowledge, and answering them from Molavi’s viewpoint.
The article studies and compares the philosophical worldviews in Molavi’s and Shakarim’s poems. Although the two poets lived in two different ages and a period of six centuries parts them and their views on anthropology and self-knowledge. Both Molavi and Shakarim attributed to allegory in expressing their self-knowledge subjects and in some occasions, scientific and social issues. There are many similarities between the thoughts and philosophical view in perceiving the world expressed by Molavi and Shakarim on “man” and “self-knowledge”. As an example, both poets expressed the concept “self” by using various metaphors. In addition, they attributed to allegories and similes in times to explain the topic.

December 1844 was a turning point for the Caucasus, when it was decided to create the Caucasus Viceroyalty, which led to significant changes in the administrative, economic and cultural spheres. This article studies a new information field system associated with the publication of the annual Kavazskiy Kalendar’ [Caucasus Calendar] and the weekly newspaper Kavkaz, initiated by Prince M.S. Vorontsov in 1846, which was necessary for the media support of his administrative and cultural reforms. It has been proved that the newspaper Kavkaz, whose editing was entrusted to O.I. Konstantinov, played an important role in the study of the history, ethnography and folklore of the Caucasus, as well as in the collection of local literary materials. It is shown that in the period of the Caucasian War on the territory of the Black Sea Cossack Army a type of “intelligent chernomorets [resident of the Black Sea region] of the 1840s” was formed. In the course of the study, the main emphasis was placed on the intellectual biography of the keeper of the spiritual school V.F. Zolotarenko, a representative of this type. As a result of our research, we were able to establish the authorship of three previously non-atributed essays published in the newspaper Kavkaz in the period from 1848 to 1850. We prove that one of them was written by V.F. Zolotarenko; the others were written by I.D. Popko. This allowed clarifying the bibliographic information concerning the creative heritage of both authors and broadening the understanding of the thematic diversity of the newspaper Kavkaz in the context of studying the literary and local history aspects of the formation of the regional cultural tradition.
About the past, but at different times: Computer analysis of texts in textbooks on the history of the USSR/Russia for six generations of students

In this article, we focus on the analysis of the texts of three history textbooks for university students published at different times: in 1946, 1983, 2001, 2006 and 2010. As a material, we use texts in each of the textbooks describing seven historical topics since the beginnings of the Principality of Kiev till the Reforms of Peter I. In our research, we tried to move away from the tradition banalized in discursive research to analyze history textbooks as a kind of ideologically labeled discourse. Instead,
we consider the analyzed texts as a form of manifestation of a certain generational narrative. The authors of the textbooks, being not only institutional narrators, but also representatives of their generation, color the historiographical canvas, which remains, in principle, unchanged, with a certain emotional tone, and, when telling about the same events, shift the focus of thematic attention based on the spirit of their time. To solve this problem, we use computational linguistics methods: sentiment analysis, clusterization and topic modeling. Their use in combination with interpretive analysis allowed us to draw a number of conclusions: (1) there are historical subjects that are told, in general, within the same dominant tonality, while for others there is an ambivalence of evaluation; (2) the ranges even within the same tonality may vary greatly from textbook to textbook; for example, this is characteristic of texts about Ivan the Terrible; (3) each textbook is characterized by its own “tonal range”: 1946 is the most restrained, while 1983, 2001 and 2006 are the most altitudinal; (4) even in the textbooks of the same author team, published 9 years apart, the tonality of the texts of the same sections is not identical: from 1997 to 2006 it becomes, on the whole, noticeably more positive; (5) within the generational narrative, historical stories are revealed through the prism of a certain dominant idea − it is different for each time: for the post-war narrative it is the idea of protecting the state and paying attention to its geopolitical neighbours; for the post-perestroika period of the formation of the “young” Russian democracy (2001) − the idea of paysan community and veche as the forms of original democracy “of the people”; for the time of the formation of the modern Russian vertical of power (2010) it is the idea of centralization of power and its stability.
A “refined and graceful lyricist” or “obstinating Balmont”? Criticism and research of Georgy Vyatkin publications in the 20th – early 21st centuries
Authors:   National Research Tomsk State University, Gerasimchuk Irina V.
Published: December 2024

The article analyzes the research of Georgy Vyatkin’s text corpus: critical and scientific materials published during Vyatkin’s lifetime and after his rehabilitation. The aim is to identify gaps in the history of the study of his literary heritage. The main method is a comparative analysis of studies of his texts from the point of view of the localization of research schools. In addition to separating the research into two periods, I determined the main regions and cities of investigations. This geography is linked to his biography. The novelty of this study lies in the identification of centers for the study of Vyatkin’s works. This is due to the fact that Vyatkin primarily published his works in the local press. For the majority of regional researchers, this is decisive in choosing the object of study. I found out that most of the researchers are in Omsk, Tomsk, Altai and Novosibirsk. The criticism and reviews in the local press are marks of the first period. Basically, these were Vyatkin’s colleagues – writers, editors of publications. In the first period, no scientific approach to Vyatkin’s texts is observed. The second one is more related to science. There were studies of translations, poetry and, to a lesser degree, regional journalism. Vyatkin’s journalism has a great variety of genres. This part of his texts has not been fully studied. Here one can identify the scientific schools that studied the translations of Vyatkin, his poetry. His journalism was studied less, mostly reviewed as part of the study of the local press of the early 20th century, in some cases, as texts by a contemporary of recognized writers R. Rolland, F. Dostoevsky, I. Bunin, about whom Vyatkin wrote in his articles. Vyatkin’s journalism is very diverse, he published reviews, essays, reports, sketches. This part of his texts has not been fully studied. This article contains all the studies of Vyatkin’s texts published in the press of the early 20th – early 21st centuries. The main hypothesis is the following: we do not know all Vyatkin’s texts because his archive was lost. I have found about 900 texts, 350 of them are prose. Some of them are not included in the collection of his works. Researchers have not seen or studied these texts. At the moment, 62 publications with which he collaborated are known. Vyatkin’s texts are scattered among these archives. The study of Vyatkin’s works should be continued in order to understand how the regional press developed. This is the way to understand the history of the evolution of the regional press.
HNCACB_3D.nan v1
Authors: KB NAN
Published: December 2024

This protocol describes running a 3D HNCACB pulse sequence with sensitivity enhancement, gradient coherence selection and water flip-back, using either uniform or non-uniform sampling (NUS). This produces a 3D phase-sensitive dataset that correlates backbone 1HN and 15N resonances of residue (i) with 13CA and 13CB of residues (i) and (i-1). The sequential (i-1) peaks are typically weaker than intra-residue (i) peaks. The CA and CB peaks have opposite signs. This is the key experiment for backbone resonance assignment, but also the least sensitive. In challenging cases it may need to be complemented with HNCA, HN(CA)CO and 15N-edited NOESY-HSQC. Can be acquired with NUS sampling when S/N is sufficient, typically for highly concentrated samples of smaller proteins. Required isotope labeling: U-15N,13C. Samples with additional 2H labeling should use HNCACB or TROSY-HNCACB versions with 2H decoupling. Optimal MW is ≤ 25 kDa. Larger systems generally benefit from 3D TROSY-HNCACB versions. Compare 2D H-N planes of HNCO and TROSY-HNCO to check which one yields better S/N. This pulse sequence can be used for: spin system identification resolving signal degeneracy in 2D 15N HSQC backbone resonance assignment: sequential linking of spins systems based on 13CA and 13CB peak matching in conjunction with 3D CBCA(CO)NH resonance assignment of 13CA and 13CB spins chemical shift-based secondary structure prediction (e.g. TALOS), together with other resonances Field strength preference: highest available field strength is preferred for better sensitivity and peak dispersion. It uses the standard Bruker Topspin pulseprogram 'hncacbgp3d'
hCCH-COSY_aro_3D.nan v1
Authors: KB NAN
Published: December 2024

This protocol describes running a 3D (H)CCH-COSY pulse sequence optimized for the aromatic spectral region. It uses semi-constant time (SCT) evolution in both indirect 13C dimensions, and can be collected with a standard or a non-uniform (NUS) sampling scheme. This produces a 3D phase-sensitive dataset that correlates 1H and 13C resonances within aromatic rings of Trp, Phe and Tyr via 1JHC and 1JCC couplings. Dimensions F3(1H) and F2(13C) represent an HSQC pair, while F1(13C) is the COSY dimension that exhibits multiple 13C lines for a given 13C HSQC peak. 3D (H)CCH-COSY scheme is usually preferred over a related 3D H(C)CH-COSY experiment, due to better signal dispersion of aromatic 13C as compared to 1H. Aromatic 3D (H)CCH-COSY is used for resonance assignment of aromatic side-chain 1H and 13C spins, combined with 2D 13Caro CT-HSQC, 3D 13Cali-edited NOESY, and 3D 13Caro-edited NOESY. Assignment of aromatic resonances is usually performed after backbone and aliphatic side-chains assignment is complete. The CA and CB shifts from the backbone resonance assignment stage along with HA and HB shifts from 3D HBHA(CO)NH are used to bootstrap the side-chain assignment process. Required isotope labeling: U-15N,13C or U-13C. Not suitable for samples with additional 2H labeling due to starting with aromatic 1H polarization. Optimal MW is ≤ 25 kDa. Field strength preference: Highest available B0 field is preferred. Low dispersion of 13C resonances in Phe and sometimes Trp residues may lead to strong coupling artifacts at low fields. It uses a pulseprogram 'hcchcoctgp3d2_aro.nan' modified from the original Topspin version.

This protocol describes running aliphatic 13C-edited 3D NOESY-HSQC pulse sequence with sensitivity enhancement, and gradient coherence selection, using either uniform or non-uniform sampling (NUS). This produces a 3D phase-sensitive dataset that provides NOE correlations between aliphatic 13C-linked 1H spins and remote 1H spins resolved according to 13C chemical shifts along the third dimension (F2). This pulse sequence can be used for: Aiding in backbone resonance assignment - mainly via sequential HA-HD2 and HA-HD3 NOE peaks in Xxx-Pro segments Resonance assignment of aliphatic side-chain 1H and 13C spins Generating distance restraints for structure calculation based on NOE cross-peak integrals or intensities Required isotope labeling: U-13C, or U-15N,13C. Also suitable for samples with selective ("sparse") 13C-labeling of certain amino acid types. Optimal MW is ≤ 25-30 kDa. Field strength preference: highest available field strength is preferred for better sensitivity and peak dispersion. It uses a pulseprogram 'noesyhsqcfpf3gpsi3d.nan' modified from the original Topspin version.

This protocol describes running a 3D HN(CA)CO pulse sequence with sensitivity enhancement, gradient coherence selection and water flip-back with non-uniform ( NUS) sampling scheme. This produces a 3D phase-sensitive dataset that correlates backbone 1HN and 15N resonances of residue (i) with 13CO of residues (i) and (i-1). The sequential (i-1) 13CO peaks is typically weaker than intra-residue (i) 13CO peak. Usually optional for backbone resonance assignment, but may be useful cases of poor quality HNCACB, or degenerate CA and CB shifts. Has slightly better sensitivity than HNCACB, however, 13CO shifts cannot be used to differentiate residue types. Can be acquired with NUS sampling unless sensitivity limited. Required isotope labeling: U-15N,13C. Samples with additional 2H labeling should use separate HNCA(CO) version with 2H decoupling. Optimal MW is ≤ 25 kDa. Larger systems may benefit from 3D TROSY-HN(CO)CA version. Compare 2D H-N planes of HNCO and TROSY-HNCO to check which one yields better S/N. This pulse sequence can be used for: spin system identification resolving signal degeneracy in 2D 15N HSQC. backbone resonance assignment: sequential linking of spins systems based on 13CO peak matching (in conjunction with 3D HNCO.

This protocol describes running a 2D 15N HSQC pulse sequence with sensitivity enhancement, gradient coherence selection and water flip-back. This produces a 2D phase-sensitive 15N-1H correlation dataset that displays signals for each backbone amide proton-nitrogen pair, as well as -CONH2 side chains of Asn and Gln. Required isotope labeling: U-15N (with or without 13C, 2H) Optimal MW is less than 25 kDa; larger systems generally benefit from 2D TROSY at high NMR fields. This pulse sequence can be used for: resonance assignment of backbone and side-chain 1HN and 15N resonances spin system identification routine sample screening and stability monitoring chemical shift perturbation studies due to ligand binding, paramagnetic relaxation or pseudo-contact shifts optimization of 15N offset and spectral width anchoring of 3D spectra (e.g. HNCO, 15N-edited NOESY/TOCSY, etc. ) during interactive visual analysis It uses the pulseprogram 'hsqcetfpf3gpsi2.nan' (hsqc= heteronuclear single quantum correlation; et=echo-antiecho; fp=water signal flipback; f3=third channel for 15N; gp=gradient pulse; si=sensitivity enhanced ) modified from the original Bruker library sequence.

This protocol describes running a 3D (H)CCH-COSY pulse sequence optimized for the aliphatic spectral region. It uses semi-constant time (SCT) evolution in both indirect 13C dimensions, and can be collected with a standard or a non-uniform ( NUS) sampling scheme. This produces a 3D phase-sensitive dataset that correlates covalently bonded aliphatic 1H and 13C spins via 1JHC and 1JCC couplings. Dimensions F3(1H) and F2(13C) represent an HSQC pair, while F1(13C) is the COSY dimension that exhibits multiple 13C lines for a given 13C HSQC peak. 3D (H)CCH-COSY scheme is usually preferred over a related 3D H(C)CH-COSY experiment, since in the latter case the peak pattern is similar to the one observed in 3D 13C-edited NOESY. 3D (H)CCH-COSY is used for resonance assignment of aliphatic side-chain 1H and 13C spins, combined with 2D 13C HSQC, 3D (H)CCH-TOCSY, 3D 13C-edited NOESY, H(CCCO)NH-TOCSY, and (H)C(CCO)NH-TOCSY. The CA and CB shifts from the backbone resonance assignment stage along with HA and HB shifts from 3D HBHA(CO)NH are used to bootstrap the side-chain assignment process. (H)CCH-COSY has overall slightly better sensitivity than (H)CCH-TOCSY, and can be used to distinguish covalently bound 13C spin pairs from remote correlations. (H)CCH-COSY is useful for resonance assignment of Thr side-chains, where (H)CCH-TOCSY performance may be limited by large 13C chemical shift spread. Large aliphatic side chains, such as Lys, Leu, Ile, Arg and Pro, may be difficult to confidently assign with (H)CCH-COSY alone, and it may be supplemented with aliphatic (H)CCH-TOCSY. Required isotope labeling: U-15N,13C or U-13C. Not suitable for samples with additional 2H labeling due to starting with aliphatic 1H polarization. Optimal MW is ≤ 25 kDa. Side-chain resonance assignment of larger systems is usually performed using selectively protonated labeling on perdeuterated background (e.g. ILV-methyl) and specialized NMR experiments. Field strength preference: High B0 fields are preferred for better signal dispersion and minimizing strong coupling artifacts.

Published: December 2024

O intenso processo de urbanização, abertura de estradas, queimadas e o avanço da fronteira agrícola no município de Imperatriz - MA, aceleraram a degradação das matas ciliares às margens do Rio Tocantins, gerando impactos ambientais com potencial para causar danos significativos ao meio natural. Este estudo tem como objetivo diagnosticar e propor técnicas de restauração para áreas ciliares próximas à Ponte Dom Felipe Gregory, avaliando as características do ambiente. Os impactos foram identificados por meio de um checklist em campo, registrados em fotos e posteriormente analisados para estabelecer redes de interações. Identificou-se impactos negativos, como desmatamento, erosão do solo, poluição com resíduos sólidos e contaminação biológica de espécies exóticas invasoras. Como medidas de mitigação, sugere-se o isolamento da área contra fatores de degradação, interromper depósitos inadequados de lixo, orientar o acesso humano com finalidade recreativa e erradicar espécies exóticas. Além disso, técnicas para a restauração ecológica, como plantio de mudas, transposição de solo, dragagem, reflorestamento e terraceamento aliado à bioengenharia de solos.
El cómic y su uso educativo. Revisión sistemática de literatura (2010-2022)
Authors: Álvarez Carmen Álvarez , García-Ruiz Rosa
Published: December 2024

Los cómics han constituido y constituyen un recurso didáctico ampliamente empleado en los procesos de enseñanza-aprendizaje en diversidad de contextos educativos. En este artículo se presenta una revisión sistemática a nivel internacional de la literatura científica que relaciona la lectura de cómics con su empleo educativo para identificar su diversidad de usos. Tras la realización de una búsqueda documental de artículos científicos al respecto en la Web of Science y Scopus en base a una serie de criterios se determinó trabajar con un conjunto de 46 artículos publicados en el periodo 2010-2022. Estos fueron analizados conforme a ocho variables. Los resultados muestran que se produce un uso diverso de los cómics: se demuestra que los cómics son ampliamente aceptados como estrategia didáctica en las aulas, pero se observa, al tiempo, que predomina su lectura sobre su creación, el soporte digital se ha impuesto sobre el soporte en papel y la lectura predominante es académica. Es posible concluir que el empleo de los cómics produce muchos y notables resultados educativos. Sin embargo, se podría hacer un uso de los mismos más crítico, abordando en mayor medida la diversidad social para evitar la reproducción de estereotipos.

Bu çalışmanın amacı ilköğretim matematik öğretmeni adaylarının cebir ve geometri alanında yaptıkları ispatların özelliklerini ortaya çıkarmaktır. Bu bağlamda öğretmen adaylarının cebir ve geometri alanında yaptıkları ispatların; ispat yapılarına ve şemalarına odaklanılmıştır. Araştırmanın çalışma grubunu Türkiye’deki bir devlet üniversitesinin ilköğretim matematik öğretmenliği bölümü dördüncü sınıfında öğrenim gören 29 öğretmen adayı oluşturmaktadır. Araştırmanın verileri Cebir-Geometri İspat Formu aracılığı ile toplanmıştır. Formda öğretmen adaylarının cebir ve geometri alanından ispat yapmaları gereken iki açık uçlu soru yer almıştır. Bu ispatların çözümlenmesinde betimsel analiz kullanılmıştır. İspat yapılarının analiz sonuçları ilköğretim matematik öğretmen adaylarının hem cebir hem de geometri alanındaki ispatlarda çoğunlukla tümevarımsal ve yapısal-sezgisel yapıda ispat üretebildiklerini, her iki alanda da çok sınırlı sayıda tümdengelimsel yapıda geçerli ispat üretebildiklerini ortaya koymuştur. İspat şemalarının analizi öğretmen adaylarının cebir alanındaki ispatlarda çoğunlukla tümevarımsal ve referanssız-sembolik ispat şemalarını kullandıklarını, geometri alanındaki ispatlarda ise çoğunlukla tümevarımsal ve algısal ispat şemalarını kullandıklarını ortaya çıkarmıştır. Bu sonuçlar öğretmen adaylarının hem cebir hem de geometri alanında ispat yapmada başarısız olduklarını gözler önüne sermiştir. Cebir ve geometri alanlarındaki ispatlar arasındaki yapısal bütünlük durumları incelendiğinde bu iki alandaki ispatlar arasında yapısal sürekliliğin olmadığı, çoğunlukla yapısal mesafenin olduğu bunu da spantone sürekliliklerin takip ettiği belirlenmiştir.
Coronary Dissection – Back to the Future – Finding Good in the Bad!

Published: December 2024

It has been recognized for decades that dissections occur as a mechanism of balloon angioplasty. A successful angioplasty result contains some degree of intimal splitting and disruption, which usually heals well. Nonetheless, some dissections are extensive, leading to serious ischaemic complications. The concept of therapeutic coronary dissection started evolving in the 1970s and seems to be a favourable mechanism for drug delivery in the current era of drug-coated balloons. This article will primarily focus on studies undertaken to understand the mechanism of balloon angioplasty and the morphological changes in the plaque post-balloon angioplasty. In the early days of balloon angioplasty, there was an enormous interest in dissections, mainly to prevent acute vessel closure events and to address the importance of their occurrence in relation to vessel restenosis. We will review the historical background, studies defining the clinical, angiographic and morphological patterns of the dissection spectrum and various currently evolving management strategies.
Barriers to Providing Services Experienced by Rural Domestic Violence Service Centers in Pennsylvania During the COVID-19 Pandemic
Authors: Stillson Cole , Lee Daniel
Published: December 2024

Research examining how the COVID-19 pandemic affected assistance provided to domestic violence victims has produced mixed results with specific evidence about the effects on rural service providers in the United States being quite rare. The objective of this research was to survey Pennsylvania’s rural domestic violence service providers to identify their ability to respond to the challenges of the pandemic with expectations of guiding service providers to be better prepared for managing public health and other states of emergencies. A mixed-methods approach was used to assess five aspects of domestic violence responses including agency services, staffing, funding, clients, and interagency collaboration. The findings suggest respondents’ greatest concerns about providing services during the pandemic were related to funding, staffing, and client access to services. Policy recommendations based on these findings include establishing greater advocacy for service providers, creating victim-focused interagency advisory boards, evaluating and improving a supportive workplace culture, and reducing restrictions on the use of funds during a state of emergency.

Child victimization, including child maltreatment, is a global public health concern with serious and potentially life-long consequences (Djeddah et al., 2000; World Health Organization, 2020). Global estimates suggest that upwards of one billion youth under 18 years of age are victims of child maltreatment each year (Hills et al., 2016). The consequences that stem from exposure to child maltreatment range from noncommunicable diseases to violence perpetration (Nelson et al., 2020). These findings, in conjunction with the lasting impact trauma has on the brain and body (Siegel, 2001; Thomason & Marusak, 2017) and the potential influence trauma has on the health of societies (Magruder et al., 2017), highlight the need to create trauma-informed systems. While implementation of a trauma-informed approach may look different across contexts, the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) has developed four key assumptions to guide trauma-informed work, often referred to as the “Four Rs” (i.e., Realize, Recognize, Respond, and Resist Re-Traumatization). The Four Rs operate under six fundamental principles: (1) safety, (2) trustworthiness and transparency, (3) peer support, (4) collaboration and mutuality, (5) empowerment, voice, and choice, and (6) cultural, historical, and gender issues. This paper aims to provide practical applications of SAMHSA’s trauma-informed approach across all societal levels (i.e., individual, system, and community levels), focusing on cultural and rurality considerations.
Advancing Pedagogical Methodologies through the Development of a Robotics Training Manual (RTM) for Mathematics
Authors:   College of Education, West Visayas State University, Iloilo City, Philippines, Sagge, Jr. Roberto G.
Published: December 2024

Robotics is a discipline intrinsically grounded on mathematics since the latter is the foundational framework for numerous aspects of robotics. This paper is a design and development research aimed at identifying the most difficult learning topics in grade 7 Mathematics and developing a training manual that integrates robotics technology in pedagogy. It generally aims to assist in improving Filipino learners’ mathematics knowledge and skills through robotics. The study employed a researcher-made survey questionnaire and an evaluation form. The findings revealed that the ten most difficult topics include algebraic expressions, arithmetic and geometric sequences, simulator calculators, scientific calculators, protractors, and polygons. Following the Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation (ADDIE) Model, a Robotics Training Manual (RTM) was crafted, designed, and developed to introduce distinctly diverse pedagogical approaches to teaching these Mathematics topics. The results of the evaluation showed that the RTM is highly acceptable in terms of its objectives (M = 3.75), content and activities (M = 3.79), and assessment (M = 3.60). These results indicate that the RTM aligns well with the identified most difficult learning topics of the K to 12 Curriculum. It further implies that its content and activities are pertinent to learners’ needs, and its assessments promote higher-order thinking skills. By incorporating robotics into mathematics instruction, educators can highlight the interconnectedness of various subject areas and demonstrate the application of mathematical concepts across different fields. This interdisciplinary approach fosters a comprehensive understanding of mathematics and underscores its relevance to other curricular endeavors in diverse contexts.

Published: December 2024

Improving the quality of higher education can be done, among other things, by increasing the performance of lecturers. The research used a quantitative causality approach and was carried out at universities in Indonesia by taking a sample of 181 university lecturers in management study programs. Data was obtained through a questionnaire distributed online using Google Forms. The data was processed using a Simultaneous Equation Model (SEM) with the AMOS program. The research results show that knowledge sharing has a positive and significant effect on intrinsic motivation. Likewise, cohesiveness has a positive and significant effect on intrinsic motivation. Furthermore, intrinsic motivation has a positive and significant effect on lecturer performance. Thus, intrinsic motivation mediates the influence of knowledge sharing and cohesiveness on lecturer performance. Knowledge sharing and cohesiveness have a positive and significant effect on basic psychological needs. However, fulfilling basic psychological needs has no effect on lecturer performance, meaning that basic psychological needs do not mediate the influence of knowledge sharing and cohesiveness on lecturer performance.

Exploring the Difference in Art Education between China and Western Countries through a Lens of the Attitudes towards Street Art
Authors: Li Yingai
Published: December 2024

This essay examines the contrasting approaches to art education in China and Western countries, with a specific focus on perceptions of street art. Street art, particularly graffiti, is perceived differently across these cultural contexts. In Western nations, such as the United States, street art has evolved from a frowned-upon activity to an accepted form of artistic expression, often celebrated for its creativity and social commentary. Conversely, in China, street art is commonly viewed as vandalism, reflecting a less accepting attitude towards this form of expression. The research involves an extensive review of literature and case studies on street art, education, and cultural values. It reveals that Western art education places a strong emphasis on encouraging individual creativity and experimentation. Western teaching methodologies often foster personal artistic development, allowing students to explore various mediums and styles. In contrast, Chinese art education is characterized by a focus on traditional techniques and adherence to established artistic norms, deeply influenced by cultural values such as respect for history and order. The essay also explores the pedagogical approaches and student-teacher dynamics in art education within these cultural frameworks. Chinese art education tends to be more teacher-led, emphasizing skill acquisition and historical knowledge. Western art education, however, adopts a more facilitative approach, promoting self-exploration and independent artistic growth in students. The comparative analysis highlights how these divergent approaches to art education reflect the broader cultural and societal values of China and Western countries. It underscores the importance of understanding these differences for a comprehensive appreciation of global art education practices, suggesting that an awareness of these diverse educational philosophies can enhance the richness and diversity of artistic education globally.
The Homily for the Ritual Mass of the Ordination to the Presbyterate in the Perspective of the Requirement of Liturgical Discourse
Authors: Petka Michał
Published: December 2024

The article focuses on presenting a unique situation occurring in liturgical discourse when it comes to the ritual homily contained in the books of the Roman Pontifical. Its novelty is that the homily, which is normally a “derivative” text, in this case is also considered a “canonical” text. A homily from the ordination rites of a presbyter was chosen as an example of such a situation. The texts of both the pre- Vaticanum II’s Pontificale Romanum and the book after the reforms of Paul VI are presented, which is justified by the continuous use of both books, as well as by marking the changes that occurred during the liturgical renewal. The article in the first part presents the features of the ritual homily and the role of the bishop in its proclamation. The second part describes the phenomenon of liturgical discourse and the Roman Pontifical, followed by an analysis and evaluation of the texts of ritual homilies contained in both ordination rituals.
Coherence of Homilies and the Paschal Mystery. Analysis Based on Selected Texts of Stanisław Czerwik’s Preaching
Authors: Janaszczyk Piotr Aleksander
Published: December 2024

Achieving coherence in the communication is one of the key qualities of the homily. The creation of such an utterance requires a lot of efforts, including the use of a compositional principle that is as solid as possible. Such a criterion has managed to be indicated in the preaching of Stanisław Czerwik. The author not only built a recognisable construction in the form of the so-called ‘paschal principle’, but nevertheless maintained theological correctness in the ministry of the word. The article presents the results of an analysis conducted on 1,043 texts of published and unpublished homilies. In the first part, the paschal principle will be present in Cherwik’s homilies. In the second part, it will be analysed from the perspective of building the coherence of the speech.

Published: December 2024

A Educação de Jovens e Adultos (EJA) é uma modalidade de ensino que visa atender indivíduos que por diversos motivos não concluíram a Educação Básica no tempo regulamentar. Desse modo, esse artigo tem por objetivo analisar a oferta de componentes curriculares que tratam sobre a EJA nos cursos de Licenciatura em Matemática, nas Universidades Estaduais do Nordeste, tendo em vista que a EJA, no âmbito educacional, é vista como a modalidade regular, na qual é importante que as práticas educativas sejam desenvolvidas a partir do contexto que os estudantes estão inseridos. A pesquisa desenvolvida teve cunho qualitativo e bibliográfico, a coleta dos dados foi realizada por meio dos Projeto Pedagógico do Curso - PPC dos cursos de Licenciatura em Matemática em Universidades Estaduais do Nordeste. A análise dos dados deu-se a partir de categorias que emergiram diante das leituras das ementas, sendo elas: a) Práticas Educativas na EJA; b) Desafios e Perspectivas na Formação de Educadores; e, c) Histórico da EJA. Observa-se que disciplinas que tratem especificamente da EJA, em algumas universidades, ainda não são ofertadas. Ademais, quando são oferecidas, têm cunho optativo, propiciando que o licenciando curse ou não. Nesse sentido, cabe a reflexão sobre a importância que a EJA seja visibilizada com intuito de pensamos em práticas educativas que atendam às necessidades dos indivíduos imersos no processo de ensino e aprendizagem, assim como que as políticas públicas sejam impulsionadas em prol da modalidade, garantido os direitos e as funções para o desenvolvimento que vise promover uma aprendizagem eficiente e a permanência dos estudantes no cenário educacional.
Impact Angle-Based Section Design and Optimization of the C Post in Order to Improve the Safety and Structural Performance of Guardrails
Authors: Ozcanan Sedat , Özcan Özgür
Published: December 2024

This study focuses on enhancing the performance of the C post in H1 containment-level guardrail systems by optimizing its design to better withstand angular impacts, common in roadside safety applications. Since the post plays a crucial role in transferring impact loads to the ground, modifications were made by adjusting the angle of the post edge that aligns with the impact direction, while keeping the perpendicular side constant. Two key test angles from EN1317 standards were used: a 20-degree angle (TB11) to assess safety metrics like the Acceleration Severity Index (ASI) and theoretical Head Impact Velocity (THIV), and a 15-degree angle (TB42) to evaluate structural performance, including working width and exit angle. Finite element modelling in LS-DYNA, followed by model validation and calibration, showed that aligning the C post angle more closely with crash angles improved both safety and structural integrity, resulting in a transition of the C post design toward a Z post shape with enhanced rigidity and performance.

In this paper we test a new method for determining the rotation axis direction in space for various resident space objects (RSOs). This method (Koshkin et al., 2024) is based on the structural analysis of the light curves of such RSOs and the search for similar fragments, called "photometric patterns", in observations obtained from one or several observatories simultaneously or over a short period of time. The method does not require prior knowledge of the RSO shape and does not impose strict requirements on the quality of observations, and this is its main advantage. First of all, this method is certainly applicable to rapidly rotating objects of complex shape with smooth surfaces. As a result, such RSOs are capable to reflect sunlight in a specular manner, when short-term brightness flares are present in the light curves forming a unique pattern. Identical patterns are observed when the angle between the phase angle bisector (PAB) and the rotation axis reaches the same values. However, the light curves of many RSOs have a significant diffuse component in addition to the specular flares. This diffuse component depends on both the phase angle value and the orientation of the phase angle plane relative to the RSO’s plane of rotation. This paper is devoted to checking the assumption that the structure and shape of diffuse-specular patterns will remain similar to themselves within certain limits of variation of the value of these two angles at moments of equality of the PABs’ latitude. The analysis is based on simulation using synthetic light curves of the RSO model, observed from several points on the Earth's surface.
