“This boy doesn’t eat” – Mothers’ narratives about food selectivity and autism
Authors: Uchoa Brunna Karoliny Pereira , Araújo Antônia Edda , Menescal João Vicente , Leite Álvaro Jorge Madeiro
Published: November 2024

Abstract Introduction Eating difficulties are increasingly present in childhood, with emphasis on food selectivity. The experience of eating together for families of children with autism and food selectivity is perceived by mothers as exhausting and stressful. Objective To understand maternal representations about the food selectivity of their children with autism. Method Phenomenological research carried out with mothers of children with autism and food selectivity. In-depth interviews were carried out to collect data; the interpretation was made through Thematic Analysis. Results The analysis allowed the formation of five categories. The first highlighted the maternal perception of the onset of eating problems during breastfeeding and food introduction; and the main difficulties during eating. The second category addresses the diagnostic discovery and the feelings of insecurity, guilt and relief triggered. Overload of care, abandonment of occupational roles, self-questioning and strategies used to improve the child's nutrition are addressed in the third category. The fourth theme comprises the support network offered by spouses and family members, perceived as insecure, in contrast to the substantial support from other mothers in similar situations. Future fears and desires were perceived and associated with conditions of stress, depression and anxiety in the fifth category. Conclusion Food selectivity causes maternal exhaustion, abandonment of occupational roles, psychological suffering and is disruptive to family daily life. Identifying signs of risk and intervening early, involving caregivers, seems to be a crucial measure of the needs of the problem. Further studies are suggested that investigate these measures.

Resumo O presente artigo se propõe a refletir sobre as condições e as formas assumidas pelo engajamento de migrante. A atenção recai sobre a atuação de brasileiros no exterior durante um período de média duração, que tem início com o final do período de transição democrática em 1988 e finaliza com o processo de desdemocratização que caracterizou o período 2016 a 2022. Interessa compreender as oportunidades e restrições geradas pelo regime brasileiro e suas transformações para o engajamento de brasileiros estabelecidos no exterior. O estudo parte de uma abordagem qualitativa de fontes de natureza distintas, dentre as quais destacamos documentos produzidos pelo Ministério das Relações Exteriores, pela Organização Internacional para as Migrações, entrevistas e documentos produzidos por brasileiros no exterior, entre outros. A pesquisa evidenciou que o país de origem é uma das dimensões que geram oportunidades e restrições para a atuação política de brasileiros no exterior. O governo da pátria natal pode abrir ou fechar canais de diálogo institucionais, afetando assim a janela ou a estrutura de oportunidades políticas dos migrantes.
EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION OF SUGARCANE JUICE EVAPORATION DYNAMICS DURING JAGGERY PRODUCTION
Authors: Kumar Arvind , Kothadia Hardik
Published: November 2024

This is a comprehensive exploration of the intricate convective heat and mass transfer phenomena
occurring within the context of pool boiling of sugarcane juice during the jaggery production process.
Through a meticulous indoor experimental approach, the critical parameters are continually monitored, including the mass of evaporated water, temperature variations in the sugarcane juice, and temperature profiles within the experimental setup. These measurements are taken at precise one-second intervals, all while maintaining a constant heat input of 20 kW/m2. The investigation uncovered distinct phases mirroring the various stages of jaggery production, starting with the initial sensible heating phase characterized by dynamic behavior in the heat transfer coefficient.
This phase is followed by a water evaporation stage marked by a consistent heat flux and a stabilized heat transfer coefficient. Finally, the study culminates in the jaggery solidification phase, where a decline in the heat transfer coefficient is observed. Beyond deepening the understanding of the intricacies involved in jaggery production, this research offers practical implications for optimizing processes in the jaggery industry, effectively bridging traditional practices with modern efficiency and quality standards, thereby enhancing the overall jaggery production process from 150 g sugarcane juice.
Megalin
Authors: Kulkarni Kalyani , Hussain Tahir
Published: November 2024

Megalin is an endocytic receptor in the proximal tubules that reabsorbs filtered proteins in the kidneys. Recycling of megalin after endocytosis and its expression on the apical plasma membrane of the proximal tubule are critical for its function. The expression of megalin in the kidney undergoes dynamic changes under physiologic and pathophysiologic conditions. Receptors and various effector signaling components regulate megalin expression and, potentially, function. Genetic manipulation and rare mutations in megalin suggest that a lack of or deficiency in megalin expression/function promotes tubular proteinuria and albuminuria. However, the role of megalin in kidney diseases associated with obesity, diabetes, hypertension, and nephrotoxicity remains unclear. To address these questions, animal and human studies have indicated megalin as a protective, injurious, and potentially urinary marker of nephropathy. This article reviews the literature on the regulation of megalin expression and the role of megalin in the pathophysiology of the kidney under experimental and clinical conditions. Moreover, this review articulates the need for studies that can clarify whether megalin can serve as a therapeutic target, in one way or the other, to treat kidney disease.

How to Defeat a Dragon, or Medical Sources of Lapidary and Herbarium Motifs in J. Metham’s Chivalric Romance ‘Amoryus and Cleopes’ (1449)
Authors:   Lomonosov Moscow State University, Semyonov Vadim B.
Published: November 2024

The subject of research in this article is the motifs of medieval descriptive scientific works, primarily in the genres of lapidary and herbarium; the material of the study is the medieval English chivalric romance Amoryus and Cleopes, underestimated by both English-speaking and foreign-language literary scholars. At the beginning and at the end of the 20th century this romance was published in Middle English for a narrow circle of medievalist philologists, but even in England there have been written only a few articles about it to this day, and its text has not been translated into any foreign languages and even into modern English. These circumstances make any research that focuses on this romance relevant. There are also no specialists on the works of its author, John Metham, a writer and scientist of the mid-15th century, although the century in question has a reputation as a ‘barren age’ and the names of English writers of that time are few in number. Meanwhile, Metham is the author of several treatises that were considered scientific during the Middle Ages, and therefore it would be useful to pay attention to how his scientific ideas are reflected in the literary work. The object of study in this article is the motifs borrowed by the poet-scientist from a wide range of scientific works: herbariums, lapidaries, medical treatises, encyclopedias. In the process of research, we focused on the analysis of one structurally important episode, the ‘encyclopedic’ lecture that Cleopes reads to Amoryus, the hero of the romance. Our task was to identify in the description of precious stones and herbs mentioned by the poet the connection with the established traditions of scientific genres, as well as to determine the function of scientific motifs in the literary text.
South Prikamye Name-Giving Tradition Among Perm Old Believers and Edinovertsy of the Second Half of the 19th – First Third of the 20th Centuries
Authors:   Perm State Humanitarian-Pedagogical University, Zapolskikh Evgeniya V.
Published: November 2024

The paper studies the name-giving tradition among Perm Old Believers and Edinovertsy of the second half of the 19th – first third of the 20th centuries living in the upper reaches of the Bui River and its tributaries (modern Kuedinsky District in the south of Perm Krai). The research material included birth records in the metric books from the Old Believer’s сhurch in Zemplyagash village and from Edinoverie churches in the villages of Verkh-Bui and Stary Shagirt. The analysis was aimed at identifying similarities and differences in these traditions. It has been established that both groups are characterized by early baptism on the 3rd/4th day with the giving of a name (performed by a person in clergy) and by the choice of a name based on the menologium (the child was named after the saint revered on the 8th day after the child’s birth). At the same time, the Old Believers of the Zemplyagash community practiced baptism with name-giving on the 8th day after birth, and they could give a name in honor of a saint whose name day was 7–8 days before the child’s birthday, which was part of the Russian name-giving tradition since pre-schism times. The analysis of anthroponymy revealed that the Edinoverie priests also used the Nikonite calendar, as evidenced by the naming in honor of post-schism saints, by the choice of canonical forms of name from the Nikonite calendar, as well as by a small proportion of modified forms, since Old Believers of that time practiced variable recording of names in metric books. The proportion of modified name forms in the Zemplyagash community is much higher, and their origin is connected with the times ‘before the schism’, which is motivated by the idea of the connection of times, significant for the Old Believers. Cases of naming by popular names in the Soviet period without reference to the calendar show both the flexibility of the anthroponymic system and its stability, since all popular names were traditional agionyms from the menologium.

US-EU RELATIONS DURING BIDEN’S PRESIDENCY
Authors:   State Institution «Institute of World History of NAS of Ukraine», Kyiv, Ukraine, Lakishyk Dmytro
Published: November 2024

The purpose of the article is to analyze the current stage of US-European relations. The scientific novelty of the research. Despite the geopolitical crisis during the Trump presidency, relations between the US and the EU remained strong. However, transatlantic convergences, such as support for Ukraine and Europe’s more cautious approach to China, are now increasingly diverse, alongside persistent differences over climate, trade, industry and technology. In these fields, Americans and Europeans share the same common goals, but have markedly different approaches to achieving them. The result is the adoption of independent policies that either inadvertently harm each other’s economies or create differences that prevent effective economic integration, and existing traditional forums for cooperation are not suitable for resolving these differences. The research methodology involves the use of a complex of general and special methods, in particular, systematic and comparative analysis, the method of critical analysis of sources and comparative analysis. Conclusions. Despite close coordination in Russia’s war against Ukraine and slow but steady policy alignment toward China, tensions remain in US-EU relations on many issues. Different approaches in areas of mutual interest such as trade, climate, technology regulation and Middle East policy create policy differences that are not easily resolved through established platforms of cooperation. In addition, election results in Europe and the USA promise to further complicate the trajectory of US-EU relations in this crucial election year. Relations between the USA and the EU must be strengthened at the regulatory and technical levels, creating a win-win policy favorable to the economy of the states, which will strengthen the positions of the US and the EU in relation to geopolitical adversaries and benefit voters in the countries.

Authors: Romanova Tatyana E.
Published: November 2024

BACKGROUND: Modern society is witnessing a marked increase in the influence of online sources on communication within the medical field as a social institution.
AIM: To assess the impact of online sources on trust relationship between doctor and patient.
METHODS: A survey was conducted in healthcare organizations in the Nizhny Novgorod Region using proprietary questionnaires for patients and doctors. The study involved 521 patients and 240 doctors.
RESULTS: Among patients, 32.3±2.1% rarely or never, 32.5±2.1% infrequently, 25.9±1.9% occasionally, and only 9.2±1.2% always search for or double-check the diagnosis and doctor’s prescriptions through online sources. Despite this, 82.8±1.6% of patients stated that they prioritize trust in their doctor over information found on websites. For doctors, 61.5±3.1% occasionally encounter patients who have formed opinions about their diagnosis from online sources, 15.0±2.3% always face such situations, 17.5±2.5% rarely do, and only 6.0±1.5% never experience this. Regarding patient reliance on online information, 51.7±3.2% of surveyed doctors take a negative view of the fact that patients double-check the diagnostic criteria and doctor’s prescriptions on websites, 24.9±2.3% support patients in studying information on their condition, and 23.4±2.7% are indifferent. According to 87.8±2.1% of doctors, patients trust information provided by a doctor rather than by online sources.
CONCLUSION: The study shows that 67.6±2.1% of patients access websites to check the accuracy of medical opinions. However, 82.8±1.6% of patients and 87.8±2.1% of doctors believe that information provided by a doctor is of primary importance for patients compared to online sources.

Authors: Yılmaz Sevil , Alan Nurten
Published: November 2024

Objectives: The aim of this study is to determine the awareness levels of Nursing and Elderly Care students about scabies.
Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted through an anonymous questionnaire consisting of closed-ended questions. The anonymous questionnaire consisting of closed-ended questions was administered to Nursing and Elderly Care students. Data wa collected using an online self-report questionnaire.
Results: All 202 nursing (n=95) and older people care (n=107) students, 44 males and 158 females, completed the questionnaire. The average age of the students participating in the study was 19.9±1.7 years. The lowest knowledge score of the students was the one relating to the location of the scabies lesions. Students reported that they benefited most from the internet (n=78) and the least from books and articles (n=9) as a source of information. This study also underlines that students obtain information mostly from the internet.
Conclusions: This study revealed that the academic knowledge level of Nursing and Elderly Care students about scabies was low. Our findings show that Nursing and Elderly Care students need academic knowledge to prevent scabies outbreaks and to prevent spreading. This deficiency in students needs to be addressed within the scope of formal education.
Forecasting judo medal winners at the Olympic Games: an interaction of the International Judo Federation World Ranking List and the Elo System
Authors: Guilheiro Leandro Marques , Franchini Emerson
Published: November 2024

The aim of this study was to verify which ranking list predicts Olympic results better: one created by Elo system, one using the International Judo Federation (IJF) World Ranking List (WRL), or another using the combination of both. The data utilized comprised the outcomes of 93,728 matches, encompassing 42,844 matches from the 2016 Rio Olympic Games cycle and 50,884 matches from the 2020 Tokyo Olympic Games cycle. These matches were held across 311 events, all of which contribute points to the IJF WRL. The data was sourced from https://judobase.ijf.org. A total of 8,142 male and 4,736 female judo athletes from all weight categories were analyzed. We employed two variables as proxies for athletes’ performance throughout the Olympic cycle: the positions in the IJF WRL and the ratings from the Elo System. A binary-response model was utilized. In this model, “success” denoted an athlete receiving a medal, while “failure” indicated otherwise. A combination of the WRL and Elo system better predicted Olympic performance of judo athletes. Additionally, for each rank position an athlete improved in the IJF WRL, there was an increased probability to win an Olympic medal of approximately 7.50%, while for each 10 Elo rating score improvement, the athlete increased the probability to win an Olympic medal in approximately 9.26%. When both systems were used together, the accuracy of the model was approximately 91%, with a sensitivity of nearly 68-69%, and a specificity close to 95%, for Rio de Janeiro and Tokyo editions isolated or grouped. Such information can serve as a valuable tool for national federations staff in selecting the most suitable athletes to participate in the Olympic judo competition, if both the WRL and an Elo rating system are used together.

Desinformação em saúde, políticas públicas e divulgação científica: caminhos necessários
Authors: Ramalho e Silva Marina
Published: November 2024

Nessa fala, abordo alguns aprendizados deixados pela pandemia de Covid-19 e a necessidade de políticas públicas para enfrentar a desinformação, como o fomento a pesquisas na área e o incentivo a programas de letramento digital em escolas. Discorro sobre a importância de se conhecer melhor as estratégias de combate à desinformação, como checagem de fatos e formatos mais eficientes para desmentir informações falsas. Ressalto a relevância dos cientistas e divulgadores abordarem a ciência não apenas como um produto, mas como um processo, já que conceitos como pre-prints e ensaios clínicos não são triviais à população, além de discutirem incertezas e controvérsias inerentes à ciência. Por fim, falo da necessidade de se entender o público a quem se dirige e de se desenvolver empatia pelos interlocutores.

Published: November 2024

Este trabalho objetiva analisar metodologias para a produção de objetos 3D para a implementação de um museu virtual de ciências antárticas. O Museu Virtual 3D sobre Ciências Antárticas oferecerá duas formas de acesso ao acervo. A primeira permitirá que o usuário faça download dos objetos e possa imprimi-los em impressoras 3D. A segunda será o acesso interativo on-line, pelo qual o usuário poderá manipular os objetos, girando-os em todas as direções de um eixo XYZ. Foram modelados seis animais antárticos utilizando-se sculpt modeling, fotogrametria e tomografia. A comparação entre os processos permitiu identificar o tempo de produção, os recursos necessários, o conhecimento técnico e artístico, a facilidade de uso de softwares, a precisão alcançada nos resultados, a escalabilidade e a maleabilidade de cada método. Como resultado concluiu-se que a tomografia pode ser um método mais apropriado para modelar organismos microscópicos, o sculpt modeling é um processo mais lento e exige conhecimentos artístico e técnico e a fotogrametria é um método significativamente mais rápido e fácil de aplicar, favorecendo a produção em grande escala.
Desconstruindo Normatividades

Published: November 2024

Apresento aqui uma reflexão sobre minha experiência como mulher negra na física, área vista como espaço de inteligência superior e dificuldade. A partir disso, questiono como o conhecimento científico é construído de forma excludente e opressora para vários grupos. Proponho um espaço para repensarmos aquilo que é visto como normativo na ciência, desde comportamentos e formas de expressão até os próprios saberes valorizados. Por fim, aponto o resgate de conhecimentos expropriados e o diálogo com outras epistemologias para desconstruir a norma hegemônica.
O que podemos aprender com o trabalho dos produtores de desinformação?
Authors: Tokojima Machado Dayane Fumiyo
Published: November 2024

Nas últimas décadas, os produtores de desinformação se especializaram, cativaram audiências e desenvolveram estratégias para manter e monetizar conteúdo. Parte deles passou a disputar o nicho da divulgação científica, ganhando espaço não apenas online, mas também nos meios de comunicação tradicionais, resultando em cada vez mais atenção e engajamento para a desinformação. Por outro lado, o conteúdo científico de qualidade dificilmente consegue os mesmos resultados. Esta apresentação explora o que divulgadores de ciência podem aprender a partir de estratégias de desinformação. Embora um conjunto de medidas de mitigação seja discutido, ressalta-se a necessidade de institucionalização da divulgação científica, que exige recursos, infraestrutura, especialistas, planejamento estratégico e incentivo constantes.

Authors: Gomes Cesar Augusto
Published: November 2024

Neste relato, abordarei a importância de incluir a educação midiática e a divulgação científica no currículo escolar, conforme exigido pela Base Nacional Comum Curricular (BNCC) no Brasil. Neste documento há a sugestão que divulgadores científicos possam ministrar cursos de formação para professores ou assumir aulas sobre esses temas. A complexidade de dos algoritmos de redes sociais, aliado ao hiperpartidarismo e a crise na confiança na mídia tradicional são desafios significativos e a educação de jovens e adolescentes, mesmo em contextos polarizados, pode melhorar a análise crítica de estudantes. Desta forma, argumentarei apontando que esta é um bom direcionamento para pensarmos o combate à desinformação.

Effectiveness of Acupuncture for Diabetic Nephropathy: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials
Authors: Wu Cui , Li Yuandong , Piao Chunli , Wu Jiuru
Published: November 2024

Background: This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to explore the effectiveness of acupuncture for patients with diabetic nephropathy (DN).
Methods: Nine online databases were searched: China National Knowledge Infrastructure, China Science and Technology Journal Database, Wanfang Data Knowledge Service Platform, Chinese BioMedical Literature Database, China Clinical Trial Centre, Embase, PubMed, the Cochrane Library, and Web of Science. The search period was from the establishment of the database to 1 September 2023. The quality of the literature was evaluated using the Cochrane Risk of Bias Assessment Tool, and the data were analyzed using STATA/MP17 and Review Manager 5.3 software.
Results: A total of 221 articles were identified, and 13 studies were included. The total sample size was 899, including 452 and 447 cases in the experimental and control groups, respectively. The meta-analysis showed that acupuncture combined with modern medical treatment was effective in improving urinary albumin excretion rate, 24 h urinary microalbumin, serum creatinine, blood urea nitrogen, fasting plasma glucose, 2 h postprandial plasma glucose, total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, hypersensitive C-reactive protein, and interleukin-6 in patients with DN. Adverse events were reported in only one trial; therefore, this review cannot yet conclude on the safety of acupuncture intervention in DN.
Conclusion: The clinical efficacy of acupuncture combined with modern medicine in DN is superior to that of modern medicine alone. To better evaluate the efficacy and safety of acupuncture intervention for DN, more rigorously designed large-sample, multicentre, randomized controlled trials are needed to provide evidence support in the future.

Background: Obesity is an epidemic non-communicable disease in South Africa (SA). Few data exist on rural schoolchildren. This study presented the association between paediatric obesity, anthropometric parameters and physiological traits in schoolchildren in the Alice Location of Raymond Mhlaba Municipality, South Africa.
Methods: The sum of 305 schoolchildren including girls 146; boys 159 between 5 – 7 years old were enrolled. Body mass index (BMI) specific for gender and age was used to describe overweight and obesity. Systolic/Diastolic blood pressure (SBP and DBP) was ≥ 90th percentile for gender and age. An aneroid sphygmomanometer was used to measure blood pressure (BP).
Results: 15.75% of girls were overweight compared to 10.69% of boys while 16.35% of boys were obese compared to 10.27% of girls. Pre-hypertension was detected in both girls (2.0%) and boys (0.3%). SBP and DBP were significantly (P<0.05) associated with body mass, stature, BMI, hip and waist circumference (HC & WC), the sum of skinfolds, fat-mass (FM), fat-free mass (FFM), and fat-free mass index (FFMI).
Conclusion: Overweight, obesity and pre-hypertension are predominant amongst rural SA schoolchildren living in Alice location. Routine check-up and control of excessive weight gain in schoolchildren is crucial for early prevention of potential cardiovascular diseases in the future.

Aim: The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between personality traits and the tendency to addiction with the mediation of emotion regulation in Yazd University students.
Methods: The study employed descriptive-correlational methodology. The population included all students of Yazd University in the first half of the 1401–1402 academic year, from whom 210 people were selected through available sampling method. Data was collected using the Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (2001), Five Personality Factors NEO short form (1992), and Addiction Tendency (1992). The data were analyzed through path analysis using SPSS software (version 25) and PLS version 3.
Results: The proposed model had a good fit. The findings indicated that the direct effect of neurotic personality traits on addiction tendency (ρ=0.00, β=0.30) was positive and significant, while the direct effects of extraverted personality traits (ρ=0.00, β=-0.32) and conscientiousness (ρ=0.00, β=-0.24) on addiction tendency were negative and significant. However, no significant direct effect was found between the agreeableness personality trait (ρ=0.09, β=-0.11) and addiction tendency. Additionally, the direct effect of neuroticism on maladaptive strategies (ρ=0.00, β=0.47) and the direct effects of extraversion (ρ=0.00, β=0.43) and conscientiousness (ρ=0.01, β=0.18) on adaptive strategies were significant. While there was a significant relationship between maladaptive strategies and addiction tendency (ρ=0.00, β=0.17), the direct effect of adaptive strategies on addiction tendency (ρ=0.06, β=0.12) was not significant. Furthermore, the indirect path of the neurotic personality trait on addiction tendency through the mediating role of maladaptive strategies (ρ = 0.00, β = 0.09) was significant.
Conclusion: The results showed that personality trait as an independent variable and emotion regulation as a mediating variable is an important factor in predicting the tendency to addiction, which can be useful in planning preventive interventions and training workshops in the field of managing and controlling emotion regulation strategies.
Arap Şiirinde Bir Aruz Hususiyeti Olan ‘Tedvîr’in Klasik Türk Şiirindeki İzleri

Published: November 2024

Araplarla irtibat kurmuş farklı milletler manzumelerinde, aruz ölçüsünü kendi dil imkânlarına uygun hâle getirerek kullanmıştır. Özellikle İran edebiyatında, 11. asırdan başlayarak Fars dilinin hususiyetlerine göre aruz şekillenmeye başlamış, Türk edebiyatında ise aruzun Türkçeye tatbikine dair birtakım hususlar, teorik zeminden ziyade pratikler neticesinde şekillenmiştir. Zamanla Türk şairleri aruzu, dillerine uygun hâle getirmeyi başarmış, kendi kuralları çerçevesinde oluşturdukları kaideler dairesinde Türkçe manzumeler meydana getirmiştir. Bununla birlikte, Arap şiirinde kullanılan aruz uygulamalarından bazılarını Türk şiirine adapte etmişlerdir. Bu uygulamalardan biri de bir kelimenin beytin iki mısraı arasında bölünmesi anlamına gelen tedvîr ve bu şekilde kaleme alınan müdevver beyitlerdir. Bugüne kadar Türk edebiyatında aruzla ilgili kaleme alınan eserlerde, yapılan farklı çalışmalarda müdevver beyte hiç temas edilmemesi ya da birkaç örnekten hareketle Türk şiirinde bu kullanımın oldukça sınırlı sayıda olduğu sonucuna varılması, bir problem olarak karşımızda durmaktadır. Buradan hareketle çalışmamızın amacı, Arap şiirinde kendisine yer bulan, Fars şiirinde hiç rastlanmadığı ifade edilen tedvîrin Türk şiirindeki durumunu ele almak ve dikkat çekilmemiş örnekler üzerinden tedvîr uygulamasının ve müdevver beyitlerin Türk edebiyatındaki varlığını izah etmektir. Öncelikle makalede, nitel araştırma yöntemlerinden belge analizi yöntemi kullanılarak aruzun tanımı, doğuşu, gelişimi, Türk şiirine intikali ve tatbiki üzerinde durulmuştur. Arap aruzu ile Türk aruzu arasındaki irtibata ve farklılıklara temas edilmiştir. Ardından tedvîr ve müdevver beyit kavramları izah edilerek tanımın farklı isimlendirmelerine temas edilmiş, Arap şiirindeki örneklerine değinilerek konu aydınlatılmaya çalışılmıştır. Türk şiirinde aruzun tatbiki ile ilgili kaynaklar incelemeye tabi tutulup tedvîr ve müdevver beyit kavramlarının Türk edebiyatında yer alıp almadığı araştırılmıştır. Yapılan incelemeler neticesinde tedvîr ve müdevver beyit kavramlarına ya ilgili kaynaklarda hiç temas edilmediği ya da incelenen tek eser üzerinde rastlanan bir ya da iki örnekten hareketle bazı çıkarımların yapıldığı görülmüştür. Bunun sebepleri üzerinde durulduktan sonra on beşinci yüzyıldan başlayarak on dokuzuncu yüzyıla kadar uzanan süreçte elde edilen farklı örnekler irdelenmiş ve ulaşılan sonuçlar aktarılmıştır.

El objetivo de la investigación fue explorar cómo es ejercida la parentalidad por un grupo de padres y madres residentes en la ciudad de Lima, con hijos menores de ocho años. Para este fin, se realizó un estudio cualitativo de diseño fenomenológico, realizándose una entrevista semiestructurada a 4 madres y 3 padres, cuyas edades se encontraban comprendidas entre los 30 a 50 años. Los hallazgos más relevantes están orientados a la importancia de las experiencias tempranas y diversas vivencias que han tenido los entrevistados, y la influencia de éstas en la forma en cómo educan a sus hijos. La mayoría de los entrevistados emplea algún tipo de violencia, ya sea verbal o física, a pesar de no estar de acuerdo con la utilización de esta; pero a su vez, expresan que el ser padres o madres los empuja a ser mejores personas y a reconocer la necesidad que tienen de poder manejar esas acciones violentas.
