Environmental factors greatly influence the physiological state of moss. Some of the environmental factors that influence the physiological of moss are air temperature, humidity, and light intensity. These three environmental factors will vary at each altitude. This study aims to determine the physiological characteristics of mosses on some altitudes in the area of Mount Tangkuban Perahu (Ratu Crater – Domas Crater track). The method that are used is to measure air temperature, humidity, and light intensity at some altitudes. Subsequently, samples were taken at each altitude, to measured chlorophyll and proline content. Mosses that are used as samples; Campylopus sp., Plagiochila sp., Dicranella sp. The results indicate that the chlorophyll content significantly different at some altitude, with an increasing trend as the decrease altitude. The highest chlorophyll content in Campylopus sp. at altitude of 1,621 meters above sea level, while the lowest chlorophyll content in Plagiochila sp. at altitude of 1,721 meters above sea level. The content of proline did not differ significantly at some altitude, and tend to be more affected by air conditions that correlate with distance of moss habitat with the active crater of Domas, which allegedly can cause physiological stress in the moss.

Indonesia is one of the largest pepper producing countries in the world. One of the pepper-producing provinces in Indonesia is the Bangka Belitung Islands (Babel). However, the infection of Radopholus similis and Meloidogyne spp. which causes yellow disease becomes one of obstacles in pepper cultivation in Babel. Thus, alternative solution to overcome this yellow disease is by reducing the amount of nematode inoculum of R. similis and Meloidogyne spp. in soil. This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of the infusion of oyster mushrooms baglog waste enriched with molasses to control the population of R. similis and Meloidogyne spp. and to increase the population of rhizobacteria. Infusion of oyster mushrooms baglog waste was mixed with 1% of molasses and was poured into soil obtained from the pepper plant roots. The concentrations used were 10%, 20%, 30% and 50%. Population of phytonematode, rhizobacteria, proteolytic bacteria, and group of fluorescence bacteria were calculated before and 7 days after treatment. Results showed that the populations of R. similis and Meloidogyne spp. in the soil poured with the influsion of oyster mushroom baglog waste decreased by 29.11% (R. similis) and 24.61% (Meloidogyne spp.), compared to the before and control treatments. The suppression of nematode population was found to be the highest in the influsion treatment at concentration of 50%. Overall, treatment of all concentrations succeeded to increase the population of rhizobacteria, proteolytic bacteria, and group of fluorescence bacteria in soil. Moreover, the highest increase was found in soil treated with concentration of 50%. This study provided new information that the infusion application of oyster mushrooms baglog waste enriched with molasses had the potential to increase the population of rhizobacteria and suppress the amount of pathogens R. similis and Meloidogyne spp.

Mild to moderate iodine deficiency in pregnancy: A matter of debate
Authors: Hossein Delshad , Fereidoun Azizi
Published: March 2021

During the last few decades painstaking efforts have been made to eliminate iodine deficiency through the world. Nowadays in regions where dietary iodine intake is adequate or borderline, the main focus is increasing dietary iodine supply in the target population during pregnancy and the first years of life. Severe iodine deficiency during pregnancy increases the risk of irreversible brain damage, intellectual disability, neurologic abnormalities, stunted growth, increased pregnancy loss, infant mortality, impairments in child development and cretinism. The potential effects of mild-to-moderate iodine deficiency are debated. Results from animal studies and observational human studies indicate that maternal mild-to-moderate iodine deficiency disturbs thyroid function in pregnancy and it also may affects fetal neurodevelopment. The effect of supplementation of iodine on thyroid function of pregnant women and their newborn, neurodevelopment of infants and cognitive performance of children have been investigated using iodine nutrition in pregnancy, based on median urinary iodine concentration. However they have found conflicting results regarding the benefits or harms of iodine supplementation in pregnancy. Although many epidemiological, interventional and clinical studies have supported the association between thyroid function in pregnant women and later psychomotor and mental development of their children, the effect of iodine supplementation in pregnant women on neurodevelopment of children is inconclusive. Even in areas with well-established universal salt iodization program, pregnancy could be at risk of having iodine deficiency and despite WHO/ICCIDD/UNICEF recommendation which believe that dietary iodine fortification during pregnancy depends primarily on the extent of pre-existing iodine deprivation, systematic dietary fortification needs to be implemented in this vulnerable group. However, iodine supplementation of mildly iodine deficient pregnant women may not have beneficial effects in their thyroid function or neurodevelopment of their children.

Ethnobotany and Indigenous Traditional Knowledge in Brazil: Contributions to Research in Ecopsychology
Authors: Tito Maria do Carmo Pereira Santos , Carvalho e Silva Jonas
Published: March 2021

This paper is the result of an investigation of the flora and traditional knowledge in the conception of Javaé indigenous people from the Txuiri village located on Bananal Island, Brazil. The objective is to investigate the plants used by these indigenous people, their diverse uses and to understand how traditional knowledge is passed on to new generations. This is a qualitative, descriptive and interdisciplinary survey, whose data collection strategies included the application of semi-structured questionnaires and collection of plants for cataloguing according to Angiosperm Phylogeny Group or APG III (2009). We identified 26 plant species, used for various purposes such as medicinal use, food, construction, craft and cultural, which were deposited in the Herbarium of the Federal University of Tocantins. Roots, stem and leaf are the plant parts most used by the community. The plants mentioned were most frequently found on the banks of the Javaés River and in the backyard of the residences. Significant traditional knowledge of these people about the plants are transmitted to new generations, through visual, orality and experimentation. Ethnobotanical studies strengthen research in ecopsychology while allowing research into the interactions between human populations and plants.

Members of the ERF Family of Transcription Factors play an important role in plant development and gene expression that regulates responses to biotic and abiotic stress. This work identified 36 ERF family genes in Coffea arabica within the AP2/ERF full domain, using the EST-based genomic resource of the Brazilian Coffee Genome Project. The ERF family genes were classified into nine of the ten existing groups through phylogenetic analysis of the deduced amino acid sequences and comparison with the sequences of the ERF family genes in Arabidopsis. In addition to the AP2 domain, other conserved domains were identified, typical of members of each group. The in silico analysis and expression profiling showed high levels of expression for libraries derived from tissues of fruits, leaves and flowers as well as for libraries subjected to water stress. These results suggest the participation of the ERF family genes of C. arabica in distinct biological functions, such as control of development, maturation, and responses to water stress. The results of this work imply in the selection of promising genes for further functional characterizations that will provide a better understanding of the complex regulatory networks related to plant development and responses to stress, opening up opportunities for coffee breeding programs.

Como se dá a governança marinha na América do Sul? A fim de responder essa questão, vislumbramos o ambiente marinho a partir de um framework sobre sistemas socioecológicos (SSE) e identificamos as principais regras, atores e interações. Realizamos uma pesquisa empírica de caráter exploratório que compreendeu em: 1) mapear todos os acordos multilaterais, globais e regionais, relacionados ao tema, promovidos desde 1931; e 2) comparar os principais acordos globais em relação aos regionais, a fim de caracterizar a dinâmica institucional em torno do ambiente marinho na América do Sul. Três dos resultados se destacam. Foram identificados 82 acordos internacionais, dos quais apenas dez são relativos exclusivamente aos países da região. Segundo, no que tange ao tema das interações e regras estabelecidas, identificamos que poluição e biodiversidade são os mais recorrentes. Concluímos que a configuração institucional referente ao ambiente marinho na América do Sul assemelha-se a um cenário de sobreposição de regimes, podendo acarretar problemas tais como falta de coordenação em relação ao uso desse ambiente.
Hidrelétricas, Direitos Humanos e alienação do território na Amazônia: Estudo de caso da UHE Tabajara - Rondônia

Published: March 2021

Os megaprojetos hidrelétricos na Amazônia brasileira provocam grandes impactos socioambientais e violações sistemáticas dos Direitos Humanos dos povos indígenas e comunidades tradicionais. As inúmeras barragens construídas apresentam um histórico de fragmentação de territórios tradicionais e de exclusão social. Neste texto, analisa-se mais um desses projetos, que está em formulação, a Hidrelétrica Tabajara. Assim, problematiza-se planejamento hidrelétrico na Amazônia articulado ao que se qualifica de alienação do território. Posteriormente, a análise se desdobra no uso corporativo do território para o capital e na alienação do território para os grupos sociais afetados, atingindo os direitos humanos e os modos de vida das comunidades afetadas. Conclui-se que os grandes projetos na região instituem escalas de domínio político dos recursos naturais e dos territórios, de modo que se ressalta o uso corporativo do espaço regional na escala do capital e do Estado, ao passo que, igualmente, tem-se a alienação dos territórios dos grupos sociais mais vulneráveis, no qual o sentido e destino do lugar fica afetado pelas lógicas do capital hidrelétrico, constituindo-se em formas de dominação e expropriação social.
Citizen trust, administrative capacity and administrative burden in Pakistan’s immunization program
Authors: Ali Sameen A. Mohsin , Altaf Samia W
Published: March 2021

Pakistan has the highest infant mortality rate in South Asia, is one of two countries where wild polio is still endemic, and is ranked third for un- or under-immunized children. Why is this the case when considerable donor and government funds have been spent on Pakistan’s Expanded Program for Immunization (EPI)? Based on a year of mixed methods research in district Kasur in Punjab, Pakistan, we focus on vaccination as a site of interaction between citizens and the state and apply the concept of administrative burden to explain vaccine hesitancy in Pakistan. As immunization is a non-means tested program where the state approaches citizens expecting full compliance, we argue that learning, psychological, and compliance costs are exacerbated by the context in which parents interact with frontline bureaucrats. Citizens’ distrust of an often absent or coercive state and low administrative capacity (specifically overburdened staff, inadequate facilities, and rushed digitization) have a multiplier effect on administrative burdens imposed on parents of young children in accessing immunization programs. Therefore, attempts by the state to vaccinate citizens often exacerbate distrust, and limited capacity hinders the state’s ability to reduce the burdens experienced by citizens.
NIZHNY TAGIL IN THE URALS CONTEMPORARY POETRY. EKATERINA SIMONOVA
Authors:   Institute of History and Archaeology, Ural Вranch of the RAS, Sozina Elena K.
Published: March 2021

This article focuses on the images of Nizhny Tagil in the contemporary poetry of the Urals. The phenomenon of “Nizhny Tagil poetic school” or “Nizhny Tagil renaissance” emerged in the early 2000s when young poets of Evgeny Turenko’s circle entered the poetry scene. This “school” lasted for about a decade but made a mark in the history of literature. The paradoxical imagery of the native city in its representatives’ poems stems from the fact that Nizhny Tagil is mostly portrayed as a “negative locus” or as a kind of “negative space”, in D. Davydov’s words. This is observed primarily in the poems of E. Turenko himself; in the poetry of his students, whenever the city is mentioned, it is shown from a negative perspective or altogether replaced by the town of Kushva. A different image of the city is presented in the poetry of Ekaterina Simonova, who also emerged from the Nizhny Tagil school and is now living in Ekaterinburg. The image of Tagil in her poems is closely connected to the themes of memory, family, and the lineage of the poetess, to which she feels a personal belonging. This is the reason why in her poetic world objects are so important; they keep traces not only of memories and past lives, but also the impressions of close people to whom she gives voice in her poems. Capturing the history of everyday life, Simonova creates poetic novellas in which life-stories of different people flow into one another. Nizhny Tagil here is portrayed as a place to which the lyrical heroine constantly returns, its mental map is revealed through the trajectory of the heroine’s movements and her constant peering into herself as the “other”. It exists in the achronic dimension, it is truly an “eternal city”, serving as a reference point during her encounters with other cities and people.

This article presents results of paleopathological study of non-adult skeletons from three Srubnaya culture cemeteries (Karanaevskiy, Nikolaevskiy and Chumarovo-1) located in the southwest of the Republic of Bashkortostan. The analyzed sample includes skeletal remains of 41 individuals from burials dated to the 1600–1400 BC. In this study solely skeletal pathologies are discussed without dental pathologies. The following groups of pathologies were recorded: abnormal cortical porosities and subperiosteal new bone formation, endocranial lesions, traces of chronic sinusitis, mastoiditis and otitis media, as well as markers of “physical stress” (including skeletal traumas). This work attempts to assess the “quality of life” of the non-adult Srubnaya culture population of the Southern Ural. The sample is characterized by an underrepresentation of infants and young children and increased proportion of adolescents, indicating that the burial grounds were formed according to some socially selective principles. The studied group is characterized by the absence of macroscopical manifestations of specific infections and reliably diagnosable cases of scurvy or rickets. High frequencies of anemia markers (cribra orbitalia) and chronic maxillary sinusitis are likely indicative not of a maladaptation, but, on the contrary, of the good enough adaptation of the non-adults of the Srubnaya culture population to the environmental factors. Well expressed “physical stress” markers (cortical defects, osteochondritis dissecans and Schmorl’s nodes), observed for the studied osteological sample, suggest that children as young as 6–7 years old were likely involved in household activities.

The study argues that in modern realia, investment activity is a powerful driver for sustainable growth and dynamic economic development in Ukraine as well as a robust foundation to facilitate further reproduction and expansion of operational and innovation potential of business structures and to boost their competitiveness and performance efficiency. However, the lack of a comprehensive highly effective investment management framework which is capable to provide an adequate response to rapidly changing market environment and is aimed at ensuring the rational use of investment resource challenges the need develop and enhance conceptual and methodological approaches and tools for more effective entrepreneurship investment management, the application of which will have important implications for spurring socioeconomic development through an updated investment mechanism. Given the limited resources available, a special emphasis is put on the specific methodological toolkit to optimize investment portfolio as an essential element in business investment management framework based on the use of relevant economic and mathematical methods and models which ensures a reasonable choice of investment area. The article attempts to substantiate the selected instruments and methodological approach to facilitate effective decision-making as to building an optimal investment portfolio. This process is represented by consistent progress along the chain “investment proposal portfolio – alternative investment portfolio – company investment portfolio” followed by gradual narrowing and each link structure optimization.

Published: March 2021

In the study, the aim is to determine the effects of the application of first aid training lessons on sports injuries. The group of the study was determined by the simple random sampling method included in the random sampling technique and consists of 20 physical education teachers who are still on duty in the 2020-2021 academic year. All of the physical education teachers are experienced teachers who have taken first aid lessons in undergraduate education. Vignette technique, one of the qualitative research methods, was used in the research. With the technique in question, teachers were asked to express their opinions following the first aid scenarios. The interviews were made over the phone and recorded with the consent of the participants. Content analysis was used in the study, and the validity and reliability of the data were provided. The opinions received from the participants were examined and themes were created by the content analysis and given with direct quotations. The opinions of the participants were interpreted by comparing with the findings of the experts in the field in accordance with the vignette technique. According to the results of the study, it was determined that physical education teachers gave similar answers to expert opinions about all scenarios. However, the accuracy rates of these answers vary with the scenarios. Therefore, it was determined that teachers' first aid knowledge varies, in some cases, they behave closely to expert opinions, and in some others, they move away from expert opinions. It has been observed that this situation resembles similar studies in the literature. When the mentioned results are compared with the literature; it is recommended that first aid training be sustainable and implementation techniques are continuously improved.
Morality in Competition Law: The Culture of Honesty and Trust in Consumer Protection
Authors: Ucaryilmaz Talya
Published: March 2021

Recent works in legal scholarship have shifted the focus of competition law to the economic analysis of law. Yet today we face the revival of the fairness concerns in competition polices. This article concerns itself with the nature of the interdependent relationship between competition law and consumer protection law as ancillary to the necessary relationship between law and morality. Hereby it aims to revisit their raison d’être to discuss that fairness and equity do not lack economic foundations. For an efficient market structure, private property and good faith in contractual relations are essential. This article aims to scrutinise the latter, while showing its objective criteria: Honesty, trust and reasonableness, as the moral essence of competition and consumer protection laws. These criteria provide efficient means to address moral aspects of fairness in competition law as it is best illustrated within its relation to consumer protection without compromising their economic foundations. Keywords: competition law, consumer protection, fairness, good faith, honesty, trust
Jewish Identity and the Intercommunal Links between Diaspora Jewish Communities in the Second Temple Period
Authors: Trotter Jonathan R.
Published: March 2021

Many diaspora communities identify not only with a distant homeland but also with others distant from the homeland. How exactly do these intercommunal connections take place and contribute toward a shared identity? What specific aspects of diasporan identity are created or strengthened? What practices are involved? This study will begin to answer these questions through investigating two practices which were widespread among diaspora Jewish communities during the last two centuries of the Second Temple period (1st cent. B.C.E.–1st cent. C.E.). First, we will show how sending offerings and making pilgrimages to the Jerusalem temple from these communities enabled regular intercommunal contact. Then, we will suggest some ways in which these voluntary practices reinforced a cohesive Jewish identity and the importance of the homeland, especially the city of Jerusalem and the temple, for many diaspora Jews, whether they lived in Alexandria, Rome, Asia Minor, or Babylonia.
Bioecological peculiarities and economic significance of large fruit bark beetle (Scolytus mali Bechstein, 1805) and fig bark beetle (Hypoborus ficus Erichson, 1836) in the southern slopes of the Great Caucasus (Azerbaijan)
Authors:   Institute of Zoology, Azerbaijan National Academy of Sciences, Isayeva K. B.
Published: March 2021

Background. Bark beetles (Coleoptera, Curculionidae, Scolytinae) are major pests of wood-fruit trees, and infestations often accelerate tree death. Bark beetles are insects that are closely related to their host trees. According to the type of feeding they belong to xylophages [7]. They prefer weakened, sick or damaged trees. Thus, bark beeteles can more easily penetrate into trees affected by various natural phenomena (wind, storm, rain) or primary pests. They are hardly ever found in rotting trees. The research was carried out on the southern slopes of the Great Caucasus during the period 2013–2016. The great difference in the altitude in the study area results in a variety of natural conditions. This, in turn, leads to the richess of fauna and flora of the area. Thus, valuable fruit trees grow both in the forests and fruit farms of the study region. However, large numbers of fruit trees are attacked by bark beetles every year, which negatively affects the numbers and the quality of trees. Untimely processing of the trees leads to their drying and destruction. According to modern systematics, bark beetles belong to the Scolytinae (Latreille, 1804) subfamily of the Curculionidae (Latreille, 1802) family. There are about 6,000 species of bark beetles from 28 triba and 230 genera in the world [8]. These insects also cause serious damage in countries neighboring of Azerbaijan [1, 2, 9, 11 ]. Despite the fact that bark beetles are of great agricultural importance, they are not sufficiently studied in Azerbaijan. Materials and Methods.The material for research was collected and treated according to common entomological methods. The vegetative organs of various trees were cut and dissected to detect adult beetles, eggs and larvae of bark beetles. Identification of bark beetles was carried out according to keys. MBS-9 microscope was used to determine the morphological features of beetles. Results. As a results of the research, we analyzed 241 samples (237 adults and 4 pupae) of bark beetles collected in 7 districts of the southern slopes of the Greater Caucasus, of which 54 specimens belonged to Scolytus mali and 187 to Hypoborus ficus. Conclusion. Out of 30 species of bark beetles detected on the southern slopes of the Greater Caucasus, 7 ones (Scolytus mali Bechst., S. amygdali Guer., S. fasciatus Rtt., S. rugulosus Ratz., Hypoborus ficus Er., Xyleborus dispar F., X. saxeseni Ratz.) were determined as fruit trees pests. Two of them (Scolytus mali and Hypoborus ficus) are widely distributed in the area and cause serious damage to fruit trees.

Investigar las producciones del Clúster Audiovisual de la Provincia de Buenos Aires (CAPBA) implica bastante más que abordar la filmografía de ese espacio. Supone estudiar vínculos interregionales e internacionales afianzados en diversos festivales que dan por resultado un fenómeno expansivo que nutre redes cuestionadoras de las estéticas y prácticas industriales. En el presente artículo proponemos estudiar el fenómeno del CAPBA desde cuatro ejes. El primero aborda la productora Cinebruto antes de la creación del CAPBA. El segundo desarrolla la historia y las particularidades del clúster y cómo se expande hacia la creación y/o apoyo de nuevas redes. El tercero indaga sobre la creación de los festivales y las nuevas relaciones impulsadas por la Red. El cuarto eje se enfoca en los nuevos formatos y las diversidades estéticas. Con la finalidad de realizar un mapeo del fenómeno retomamos reflexiones en torno al regionalismo desarrolladas en el campo de los estudios históricos y culturales, bibliografía relacionada con los modos de producción y de representación en el campo del cine, los anuarios realizados por el CAPBA y los diversos catálogos de festivales en los que el Clúster participó.
Badur Hogar, una apuesta cosmopolita para el cine regional
Authors: Morales Iván
Published: March 2021

En este artículo analizaré Badur Hogar (2019) de Rodrigo Moscoso, una película salteña que se apropia del género global de la comedia romántica para narrar una historia local y, a su vez, universal. La película le escapa al slogan turístico –“Salta, la linda”– pero no renuncia a construir, desde la capital de la provincia, un cine de aspiraciones urbanas que invita a preguntarse si el llamado “cine regional” puede ser también cosmopolita sin quedar atrapado en la salteñidad for export y sin tener que recurrir a cierto estilo codificado del cine independiente que demandan los festivales. Moscoso no evade aquello que sería propio de una cultura o identidad local, es decir, un modo situado de ser, actuar y hablar; pero se sirve de los recursos de la comedia para hacer risible todo intento de convertir a la imagen –cinematográfica– de la salteñidad en una identidad fija condenada a repetir eternamente las mismas prácticas, tradiciones, paisajes, tópicos y personajes.

Debating for God
Authors: Cherok Richard
Published: March 2021

Historians have recognized Alexander Campbell as the leading figure in an important American Christian reform movement, an advocate of Christian unity, and an educator, but his role as an apologist has been forgotten. This book focuses on Campbell's career as a defender of the faith, arguing that he was "the most significant Christian apologist of America's antebellum period." He contended with some of the most notable skeptics of his era, most famous among them Robert Owen, founder of New Harmony. Martin E. Marty says regarding Campbell, "No clergyman of his time exerted himself more vigorously in combat of the infidels of the period." This groundbreaking book supports this claim with in-depth treatment of these debates.

Many Mansions
Authors: Boyer Kathryn
Published: March 2021

Kathryn T. Boyer, the wife of Ernest L. Boyer (1928-1995), offers a window into the life she shared with her prominent husband and the constant balancing act they faced in relation to their faith, family, and public service. Often cited but seldom understood, Ernest L. Boyer (1928-1995) was one of the most influential voices in education in the latter-half of the twentieth century. The reports he wrote while heading the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of teaching influenced the way we view students from pre-school through college. This heart-warming memoir of the life offers an inside look into what truly defined him. Having moved approximately twenty times over the course of their lives together, Kathryn details with winsome yet honest prose the challenges and joys that came with the balancing act of faith, family, and public service. Those indebted to Ernest Boyer's legacy will find this work indispensable reading.
The Fight is on in Texas
Authors: Robinson Edward
Published: March 2021

This groundbreaking work draws upon congregational histories and other primary sources to chronicle for the first time the story of African American Churches of Christ in Texas. Emerging out of the nineteenth-century Stone-Campbell Restoration Movement, the African American churches inherited from their white mentors both a Biblicist theology and a feisty spirit. Their “fight” was against religious error and in support of the true church as they understood it. Out of that “fight” emerged a growing network of congregations that by the mid-twentieth century reached throughout Texas. This book lifts out of obscurity the African American Christians who joined Ramsey’s “fight …out West” and who made black Churches of Christ in Texas what they are today.

Hemşirelerin Verimliliğe İlişkin Tutumları ve Etkileyen Faktörler
Authors: Bayer Nükhet , Gölbaşı Zehra
Published: March 2021

Amaç: Tanımlayıcı türde olan bu çalışmanın amacı, hemşirelerin
verimliliğe ilişkin tutumlarını belirmek, verimliliğe ilişkin tutumlarını
bireysel ve mesleki bazı özeliklerine göre incelemektir.
Gereç ve Yöntem: Çalışma Ankara’da yer alan bir devlet hastanesi
ve bir özel hastanede yapılmıştır. Çalışma araştırmaya katılmayı
gönüllü olarak kabul eden 270 hemşire ile tamamlanmıştır. Veriler
gerekli izinler alındıktan sonra Hemşirelerin Bireysel ve Mesleki
Özelliklerini Belirleme Formu ve Hemşirelerin Verimliliğe İlişkin
Tutum Ölçeği ’den oluşan veri toplama araçları ile toplanmıştır.
Veriler SPSS 16.0 programında değerlendirilmiştir; süreksiz veriler
sayı ve yüzde; sürekli veriler ise medyan, ortalama ve standart
sapma ile gösterilmiştir. İstatistiksel analizde Mann Whitney U ve
Kruskal-Wallis testi kullanılmıştır.
Bulgular: Hemşirelerin verimliliğe ilişkin tutum ölçeğinden aldıkları
toplam puan ortalamalarının (47.74±8.51) orta düzeyin biraz altında
olduğu ölçek alt boyut puanlarından ise “mesleğe bağlılık” alt
boyutundan en yüksek puan ortalamasına (65.12 ±18.98) sahip
olduğu bulunmuştur. Buna karşın “çalışma koşulları” alt boyutunda
ise en düşük puan ortalamasına (30.91±17.72) sahip oldukları
bulunmuştur.
Sonuç: Bu çalışmadan elde edilen bulgular hemşirelerin verimliliğe
ilişkin tutum açısından mesleğe bağlılık konusunda iyi durumda
olduklarını gösterirken, çalışma koşulları ile ilgili olumsuz olduklarını
göstermektedir. Bu nedenle özellikle hemşirelerin çalışma
koşullarının iyileştirilmesine yönelik planlamalar yapılması önerilir
