Published: November 2024

Color filters are applied to white organic light-emitting diode microdisplays to generate red, green, and blue subpixels. By incorporating a microcavity structure, both the efficiency and the color gamut of the device can be significantly improved. Although the length of the cavity can be adjusted for each subpixel, the optical properties of the top electrodes remain consistent across all subpixels. The focus of this study was on optimizing the microcavity structure to accurately realize the colors of each subpixel in white organic light-emitting diodes while accounting for the transmittance characteristics of the color filters. While higher electrode reflectivity improved the color gamut, the optimal electrode structure for efficiency varied for each subpixel. In the case of color filters, increasing the thickness tends to improve the color gamut but reduces efficiency. Therefore, subpixel structures that optimize both the efficiency and color gamut by balancing these factors were investigated in this study. As the red, green, and blue ratio within the emitting layer affects the electroluminescence spectrum of the organic light-emitting diode device, the composition of the emitting layer was also investigated to optimize the color gamut.

The geometric phase (GP), arising from the evolution of states like polarization on the Poincaré sphere, is conventionally measured using interferometry. However, the interferometric techniques often suffer from instability, causing GP to be masked by dynamic phase contributions. Here, we propose a non-interferometric approach based on stimulated second harmonic generation (S-SHG) for GP measurement. Using a 1064
nm continuous-wave pump and two-stages SHG, we achieved S-SHG in the second crystal using the seed SHG (9.3 mW) and undepleted pump (0.52 W) of the first crystal. By exploiting the phase-sensitive nature of the S-SHG, we mapped the GP arising from the rotation of the half-waveplate, θH, placed between two quarter-waveplates oriented at 45° to the horizontal onto the S-SHG power. The S-SHG power varies sinusoidally with θH, and the variation increases by 2 times for the GP induced in the pump beam as compared to the seed beam, resulting in enhanced sensitivity. The measured GP value agrees with Jones calculus and interferometric measurement. We measured S-SHG amplification to be high (18×) for low seed (1 mW) and high pump (0.81 W) powers, making the current S-SHG technique suitable for imaging biological samples with low illumination, avoiding thermal damage.

Published: November 2024

In Turkey, the rate of fatal accidents per 100 thousand workers has been recorded as approximately 11 people per 100 thousand employees. The safety culture created in the workplaces, plays a significant role at reducing these rates. Employees with safety motivation are observed to exhibit positive safety behaviors. The aim of this study is to examine the relationship between the behaviors and attitudes of individuals belonging to different occupational groups towards safety culture and safety motivation. In this study, the scale conducted by Fung was applied to occupational groups in different sectors. Turkish adaptation and validity studies were carried out for the scales. In addition, ANOVA test, parametric tests, independent sample t test were used.
The results of analyses have showed that the safety climate scale has a four-factor structure, and the safety motivation has a single-factor structure. When the safety attitude of the management, organization-al commitment and communication factors are examined in terms of occupational groups and sectors, it has been observed that academic sector has less organizational commitment and safety attitude than the other groups. However, when the analyzes between occupational groups and sectors were examined, no significant difference was found within the scope of safety motivation.
In conclusion, the management or leaders who are involved in safety reduce the risk-taking rates of the employees. In addition, academicians and workers in educational sector show less safety attitude and have less organizational commitment.
Guía de intervención y buenas prácticas para fomentar el derecho a la vivienda de las personas migrantes
Authors: Crespo García Alberto , Contreras Villalobos Tabata , Almonacid Sánchez Carla
Published: November 2024

En los últimos años, la vivienda se ha convertido en uno de los temas de mayor relevancia en la opinión pública. A nivel nacional, tanto los precios de venta como los de alquiler han marcado su máximo histórico en el presente año y cada día resulta más complicado acceder a una vivienda digna. Sin embargo, no todos los grupos poblacionales se encuentran en la misma situación de vulnerabilidad y la situación precaria de la población inquilina se ve interseccionada por otras variables.

Por este motivo, en esta guía se pone el foco en fomentar el derecho a la vivienda de las personas migrantes, quienes mayoritariamente se ven obligadas a vivir en regímenes de alquiler tensionados, con una fuerte inseguridad residencial y teniendo que aceptar condiciones deficitarias debido a las numerosas barreras que dificultan su acceso. Para ello, en esta obra se ha tratado de dar voz a aquellas personas que ven vulnerabilizado su derecho a la vivienda y trasladarlo a las administraciones públicas y el tercer sector, con el objetivo de construir herramientas y recomendaciones de intervención social que ayuden a poner freno a esta problemática.

Esta guía ha sido elaborada en el marco del proyecto Acceso y condiciones de vivienda de la población inmigrante en España: Una propuesta de intervención social para la lucha contra la discriminación de las personas inmigrantes, financiado por el Ministerio de Inclusión, Seguridad Social y Migraciones, y el Fondo Social Europeo. La ejecución del proyecto ha sido realizada por el equipo de investigación social de la ONG AESCO -América, España, Solidaridad y Cooperación- desde las sedes de Madrid, Valencia y Barcelona.
Protiprávní stav jako důvod vzniku objektivní odpovědnosti v českém soukromém právu
Authors: Beran Karel
Published: November 2024

The aim of this paper is to answer the question of why we need an unlawful state of affairs as a ground for legal liability. At its core is a polemic with Filip Melzer’s view that “a certain state of affairs cannot, strictly speaking, be described as unlawful in itself, but only the conduct of the legal subject that led to that consequence or state of affairs”. Its starting point is not “strict liability”, as we understood it until the adoption of the Civil Code in 2012, but the German concept of liability for endangerment (Gefährdungshaftung), which is based not on an unlawful condition but on liability for an increase in risk. For these reasons, I will first address the question of how liability for damages, as we have known and understood it under the 1964 Civil Code, differs from the obligation to compensate for damages, which is enshrined in the current and effective Civil Code. I then consider why we need “unlawfulness” (wrongfulness) to distinguish an unfortunate coincidence from an unlawful state of affairs, and why we do not merely distinguish legal events from unlawful states of affairs. Finally, I consider the concept of liability for endangerment (Gefährdungshaftung) itself and its weaknesses.
Judikatura prvorepublikového Nejvyššího soudu týkající se popuzování k zášti, násilnostem a jiným nepřátelským činům
Authors: Kočárníková Tereza , Beránek Jan
Published: November 2024

The aim of the present article is to analyse the First Republic case law of the Supreme Court of the Czechoslovak Republic related to the provisions of Article 14(2)–(4) of Act No. 50/1923 Sb., on the Protection of the Republic, criminalizing manifestations inciting violence or hatred against an individual or a group of citizens. It examines whether these facts have been interpreted in the spirit of bound or free judicial discretion and whether the approach of the highest judicial authority to this issue has changed over time. It examines the case law relating to the concept of incitement and its forms, as well as conclusions relating to the question of the object and the material object of the offence. Particular attention is paid to the notion of the public as a feature of the facts in question, the interpretation of which was crucial in the application practice of the First Republic judicial authorities and was thus further examined and elaborated in the case law. Although primarily legal-historical, the issue under examination is also of relevance today, as it offers theoretical basis and interpretive guidelines that are applicable also in the contemporary judicial application of the provisions of Section 356 of Act No. 40/2009 Sb., the Criminal Code, which punishes incitement to hatred against a group of persons or restriction of their rights and freedoms.
Dlaczego Krasiński nazwał księdza Jełowickiego „karłem”?
Authors: Fiećko Jerzy
Published: November 2024

In this article, the author attempts to discover the reasons why in 1848, at the peak of the Springtime of the Peoples, the romantic writer Zygmunt Krasiński repeatedly called a Polish friar Aleksander Jełowicki a “squirt” in the moral, political and every other sense. Krasiński did so in his letters to Delfina Potocka, his lover and Jełowicki’s good acquaintance. Prior to becoming a Resurrectionist in the 1840s, Jełowicki participated in the November Uprising and was a prominent figure of the Great Emigration in Paris, especially as an opinion publicist and publisher (also of Krasiński’s works). In order to answer the question asked in the title, the author traced the earlier history of the relationship between the poet and the friar, created Jełowicki’s psychological, spiritual and intellectual portrait, and devoted significant attention to his moral teachings (on marital issues, among other things) expressed from the position of a dogmatic Catholic priest. As a result, the author proposed a hypothesis, although one lacking definitive proof, that apart from the significant political, dogmatic and religious differences between the two men, Krasiński’s violent reaction could have been caused by the passionate Resurrectionist’s attempts at interfering in his private life. That is because Krasiński had been living in a love triangle for years, sharing his life with Delfina Potocka and his wife Eliza, with no intention of changing this state of affairs, and Jełowicki had a reputation for giving unsolicited advice on people’s private lives. The final part of this sketch describes the later stages of the relationship, which changed after Zygmunt’s relationship with Delfina lost its erotic character – Jełowicki accompanied Krasiński at his deathbed and left a credible account of his passing.

Skarnawalizowany świat „Tajemnicy lorda Singelworth”
Authors: Kuffel Julia
Published: November 2024

The article is an attempt at reading Norwid’s Tajemnica lorda Singelworth (Lord Singelworth’s secret) in the light of Mikhail Bakhtin’s carnival theory. This novella exhibits three constitutive traits of the “seriousness-laughter” literature, which the carnivalesque literature stems from, as well as a number of characteristics of Menippean satire considered by Bakhtin to be the most representative genre of this literary movement. In the article, the author demonstrates that the novella also shows other features of Menippean satire presented in Bakhtin’s theory. This is followed by an analysis of the jester character, Tonin di Bona Grazia, who stands in opposition to the titular character, and by a reflection on Venice – the carnival city – and the city’s significance to deciphering the meanings hidden in the novella. These analyses support the hypothesis that Tajemnica lorda Singelworth exhibits characteristics traits of carnivalesque literature.

Published: November 2024

Transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) is the first‐line and most useful imaging modality for evaluating diastolic dysfunction (DD). Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) has not been fully evaluated for this task. We investigated the utility of CMR for DD evaluation.Thirty‐one patients with a recent TTE (within 4 months) were prospectively enrolled, along with 12 healthy age‐matched subjects. CMR imaging was performed at 1.5 T to assess diastolic function by quantifying mitral inflow velocities (E and A), mitral annular velocities (e’), and left atrial volume (LAVi). Measurements by TTE and CMR were compared using regression. The diagnostic accuracy of CMR for DD was determined.CMR derived E, A, E/A, e’ and E/e’ all correlated moderately to strongly with TTE, and more strongly when comparing studies performed closer in time (E: r = 0.68, E deceleration time: r = 0.82, A: r = 0.78, e’ r = 0.75, E/e’: r = 0.80, p = 0.001; LAVi: r = 0.79, p < 0.001; E/A: r = 0.82, p < 0.001, n = 14 within 45 days). Using CMR criteria analogous to TTE, there was 82% (23/28) agreement regarding the presence of DD (95% CI [63 to 93%]), with 100% sensitivity and 75% specificity, and 71% (20/28) agreement in the absolute DD grade.CMR can evaluate diastolic function, with overall strong agreement to TTE.
Translingual practices for critical language awareness in English as an additional language writing education
Authors: Feng Huan , Sun Yachao
Published: November 2024

This study explores the impact of translingual practices on Critical Language Awareness (CLA) in English as an Additional Language (EAL) writing education within a non-English Medium Instruction (non-EMI) Chinese higher education context. A case study approach was employed to investigate five students’ EAL writing practices and language ideologies. Data collection included screen recordings of students’ writing processes, semi-structured interviews, and their written products. The findings revealed that translingual practices facilitated CLA development. Students adeptly meshed their home language and English, which reflected a complex interplay of linguistic identity and power dynamics in academic settings. The study found that translingual practices enabled students to challenge monolingual ideologies and develop a critical understanding of the socio-political implications of language use. The findings indicate that translingual practices can not only facilitate content learning but also promote a deeper engagement with social justice issues within EAL writing education. Hence, this study emphasizes the necessity for EAL writing education to embrace translingual practices, thereby enriching students’ CLA.
Study on hydrophobicity and aging characteristics of epoxy resin modified with nano-MgO

Published: November 2024

The 10 kV switchgear is widely utilized in power systems due to its convenience and reliability. However, in high-humidity environments, switchgear is susceptible to condensation, which can severely damage its internal insulation components. To address this issue, this study modifies epoxy resin (EP) by incorporating nano-MgO to improve its hydrophobic properties. Initially, molecular dynamics simulations were conducted to determine the optimal doping ratio of nano-MgO by evaluating modified materials with varying concentrations. MgO/EP composites were then synthesized with nano-MgO doping levels of 1, 5, 10, and 15 wt%, and their hydrophobic and electrothermal properties were assessed. Following this, a thermal aging test was performed to evaluate the long-term performance of the composites. The findings demonstrate that the addition of nano-MgO enhances the hydrophobicity, thermal conductivity, and insulating properties of the EP. Specifically, as the concentration of nano-MgO increases, both the contact angle and thermal conductivity of the composites improve, while the volume resistivity first increases and then decreases with higher nano-MgO content. Nonetheless, all composites consistently outperform pure EP. Throughout each aging stage, the contact angle, thermal conductivity, and volume resistivity of the nano-MgO-modified EP remain superior to those of the unmodified EP.
Theatrical Plausibility in the Drama of Migration
Authors: Wald Christina
Published: November 2024

This article examines forms of plausibilisation in British performances that engage with asylum seeking. It argues in two case studies, on Timberlake Wertenbaker’s play Credible Witness (2001) and the theatre project The Trojans (2019), developed in 2018 and 2019 with Syrian refugees in Glasgow, there are multiple aspects of plausibility that are crucial in the drama of migration: the examination of the plausibility features required for a believable asylum story, the use of documentary material and techniques to heighten the performances’ authenticity, the reactivation of ancient rituals and dramaturgies to give weight and a historical perspective to current migration issues, and the appeal to the politicised faith of the audience, their identification with the refugees that is fed by political conviction. As a communal art form, the theatre offers a space for reflection on the legal logic of plausibility in asylum procedures. Rather than demanding a well-founded case, the theatre can explore conflicting plausibilities, develop counter-plausibilities, and thus question the routines of legal procedures as well as of cultural plausibilisation processes that rarely acknowledge the co-production of plausibility.
New Community Design to the Rescue: The Promises and Pitfalls of Post-Pandemic VR Theatre in North America
Authors: Garson Cyrielle
Published: November 2024

Amid the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic, the societal role of theatre is undergoing renewed scrutiny, prompting a reevaluation of its capacity for critical intervention and response. In this context, the emergence of new hybrid and digital forms, particularly the intersection of theatre with extended reality (XR) technologies, such as virtual reality (VR), presents intriguing possibilities. This article centres on the convergence of theatre and VR, with a focus on the pioneering efforts by Tender Claws and Piehole, Agile Lens, Single Thread Theatre, the Ferryman Collective, and Onboard XR. Some of their innovative productions, respectively Tempest (2020), A Christmas Carol (2021), Collider (2021), Gumball Dreams (2022), and NPC (2022), forge distinctive communities, altering audience dynamics through avatars. By examining these recent endeavours in North America, this study delves into VR’s intersections with and departures from analogue community theatre practices. As the metaverse unfolds, new questions arise: can it liberate theatre from systemic constraints or might it risk transforming experiences into tradable commodities, aligning with mainstream neoliberal democratic politics? This inquiry not only probes the transformative capabilities of VR theatre, but also dissects its broader sociopolitical implications at the intersection of art, technology, and society.
Productive Transfers: Scottish, Welsh, and Northern Irish Drama Across Borders
Authors: Lachman Michał
Published: November 2024

The article traces the production paths of three plays by Scottish, Welsh, and Northern Irish playwrights with a view on their specific reception in different cultural contexts. David Greig’s Dunsinane (2010), Gary Owen’s Iphigenia in Splott (2015), and David Ireland’s Cyprus Avenue (2016) all explore the theme of connections, cultural transfer, and identity translation in social and political environments which are composed of their Indigenous cultures and the strong presence of the British idiom. The protagonists of these plays navigate linguistic and cultural landscapes shaped by the legacy of colonial domination and by the resurgence of local ethnicities. All three plays depict the search for a renewed identity in the period of devolution and cultural diversity. It is the aim of this article to analyse the successful transfers across borders of cultural environments which these plays perform, as they articulate “local” identities for the sake of home and away audiences.
The Unrepresentable Takes the Stage: Bisexual Legibility and Theatrical Monosexism in Contemporary English-Language Drama
Authors: Peters Charlie
Published: November 2024

This article brings contemporary theatre studies into dialogue with the growing range of bisexual scholarship across disciplines. This scholarship argues, among other things, that bisexuality must be understood not as a blend of hetero- and homosexualities, but rather as a unique experience that is subject, at various times, both to homophobia and to another form of discrimination: monosexism. I argue that bisexual erasure, discrimination, and oppression – monosexism – in theatre reinforces and is reinforced by bisexual erasure in the broader culture. Building on the work of Judith Butler, Jill Dolan, Sam See, and others, I suggest that greater awareness of bisexuality in theatre studies might play a part in destigmatizing bisexuality and making offstage bisexual lives more legible and more liveable. The article goes on to analyze representations of bisexuality in three contemporary English-language plays: Stop Kiss (2000) by American playwright Diana Son, Cock (2009) by British playwright Mike Bartlett, and Smoke (2022) by Canadian playwright Elena Belyea.
Comparison of Ni-based SiC and B4C reinforcements on a TIG-coated AISI 1040 steel
Authors: Bulut Fadile , Imak Anil , Kirik Ihsan
Published: November 2024

In order to coat the surface of AISI 1040 steel using the TIG coating process, SiC and B4C are added to NiCrBAl powder at various rates. The microstructure and wear characteristics are then analyzed. Thus, it is intended to increase the AISI 1040 steel’s resistance to elements like abrasion and friction while lowering maintenance expenses. The ratio of B4C to SiC reinforcing powder affected the produced coating layer’s microstructure analyses and wear tests were carried out. Therefore, it has been found that the hard carbide phases and boron carbides generated in the coating layer have a favorable impact on wear, lowering weight losses and friction coefficients.
Self-Envy as Existential Envy
Authors: Vendrell Ferran Ingrid
Published: November 2024

This paper explores self-envy as a kind of envy in which the subject targets herself. In particular, I argue that self-envy should be regarded as a variation of existential envy, i. e., envy directed toward the rival’s entire existence, though in the case of self-envy, the rival is oneself. The paper starts by showing that self-envy is characterized by an apparent weakening of envy’s triangular structure insofar as the subject, the rival, and the good coincide in the self. After discussing an interpretation of self-envy in terms of a splitting of the self, I present an alternative explanation in terms of the ontological possibilities inherent in our actual and past empirical selves to become our ideal self. I argue that in self-envy, an actual empirical self envies her past empirical self for having more ontological possibilities of becoming her ideal self. I proceed to show that self-envy can be interpreted as a variety of existential envy. I argue that the existential self-reproach so characteristic of self-envy can be counterbalanced by feeling unconditionally loved by others and God.

Ionic liquid-modified carbon-based fillers and their polymer composites – A Raman spectroscopy analysis
Authors: Shamsuri Ahmad Adlie , Yusoff Mohd Zuhri Mohamed , Abdan Khalina , Md. Jamil Siti Nurul Ain
Published: November 2024

In the field of advanced materials, carbon-based fillers are crucial for crafting high-performance polymer composites. Continual innovations in modifying these fillers are expanding the capabilities of polymer composite materials, heralding new advancements in diverse technological areas. Ionic liquids provide innovative methods for modifying carbon-based fillers to improve the performance of polymer composites. In this concise review, numerous carbon-based fillers used for modification, ionic liquids utilized in the modification, and polymer matrices employed in polymer composites are classified. In addition, the impact of ionic liquids on the interactional and structural properties of carbon-based fillers and their polymer composites, as analyzed via Raman spectroscopy, is concisely explained. This review provides a succinct analysis that deepens the understanding of the Raman spectroscopic results pertaining to various carbon-based fillers and polymer composites. In brief, Raman analyses indicate that carbon-based fillers modified with ionic liquids and their composites exhibit upshifted peak positions and higher intensity ratios compared to their unmodified fillers. The upshifts in peak positions are linked to interactions between the fillers and ionic liquids or between the modified fillers and polymer matrices. Higher intensity ratios in these modified fillers and polymer composites suggest increased structural defects in the fillers.
A cross-linguistic analysis of cross-clausal associations: Counterfactual conditionals
Authors: Olguin Martinez Jesus , Rogers Phillip
Published: November 2024

It has been shown that linguistic features of main and dependent clauses in complex sentence constructions may show different degrees of association strength giving rise to a number of cross-clausal associations. While this domain has been explored for the most part in corpus-based studies in individual languages, it has received little attention from a typological perspective. The present study makes inroads into this territory by exploring cross-clausal associations of one complex sentence construction in typological perspective: Counterfactual conditionals (e.g., if you had gone, you would have seen her). In particular, special attention is paid to the interaction of clause-linkage patterns, TAM markers, iconicity of sequence, and ‘but’ clauses in counterfactual conditionals in a sample of 131 languages. By using a hierarchical configural frequency analysis, we identify a number of preferred and dispreferred cross-clausal associations in counterfactual conditionals that we explain from a functional perspective.
Grammatical name marking in Chamorro
Authors: Stolz Thomas , Levkovych Nataliya
Published: November 2024

Chamorro illustrates how Special Onymic Grammar can be shaped in a given language. It is shown that the rules that determine the morphosyntactic behaviour of common nouns cannot be generalized over onyms. Anthroponyms and toponyms differ markedly from common nouns within the NP and beyond. In addition, there are also structural differences that separate anthroponyms from toponyms so that it makes sense to speak of Special Anthroponymic Grammar as opposed to Special Toponymic Grammar. These differences come to the fore in the domain of pre-nominal markers, the formal distinction of cases, case government in PPs, and the functions of zero-marking. It is shown that the latter phenomenon is prominent with toponyms in journalistic prose where zero-marking competes with the use of the phonologically realized toponymic marker. On the basis of the Chamorro facts, topics for follow-up studies are put forward.

Authors: Tozzi Mariana Oliveira , Silveira Matheus dos Santos da
Published: November 2024

Este trabalho tem como objetivo refletir sobre a desestabilização dos limites do feminismo a partir da proposta de Monique Prada sobre o putafeminismo. Em seu livro, a autora conta que inspirada por muitas outras trabalhadoras sexuais decidiu elaborar sua luta em uma publicação. Mas ao contrário de muitos dos sucessos editoriais assinados por prostitutas, o texto não está centrado nas experiências com os clientes, majoritariamente homens. O seu pensamento é construído a partir de seu próprio ponto de vista e das discussões que colocam em contraste o feminismo experimentado por ela em oposição ao que ela chama de “feministas conservadoras”, que “vitimizam” e “pretendem resgatar” pessoas como ela, deixando de reconhecer a autonomia e a capacidade de escolha desta classe. Em conjunto às contribuições de autoras como Catherine McKinnon, Saba Mahmood e Judith Butler, almeja-se entender que a visibilidade no espaço público – e não somente no acesso a um submundo – é um exercício de poder que reivindica o reconhecimento, a valorização e, sobretudo, a existência. Ao abordar a complexidade do feminismo a partir da perspectiva do putafeminismo proposto por Monique Prada, este texto se soma à outras contribuições que acabam por desafiar as fronteiras do movimento feminista tradicional.

D’A SERIEDADE HUMANA DE BRINCAR À IMAGINAÇÃO DO ATOR EM FORMAÇÃO
Authors: Medeiros João Pedro de Oliveira
Published: November 2024

Com base na díade “trabalho-lazer”, eixo amplamente verificável no interior do universo teatral, dou ênfase à rotina dos jogos e brincadeiras, assim como suas funcionalidades pedagógicas para o ator em formação. Resultado de uma experiência etnográfica de um ano, iniciada em uma escola de teatro de Niterói (RJ) em fevereiro de 2021 e encerrado em fevereiro de 2022, este estudo busca rascunhar algumas considerações antropológicas sumárias sobre os vetores do jogo, da imaginação e do corpo dentro da arena teatral. Algumas categorias nativas (como, não ter medo de se expor ao ridículo e travado) se juntam à ambientação da sala de aula e à obrigatoriedade por um “uniforme” escolar preto fornecendo o lócus privilegiado para se observar que tipo de corpo se está formando nesses espaços, um corpo apto à imaginação.
MASCULINIDADE HEGEMÔNICA E VELHICE
Authors: Ponce de Leão Alice Alves Menezes , Monteiro Mayane Ynêssa da Silva
Published: November 2024

A masculinidade hegemônica se erige no tronco do patriarcado, sendo o machismo o seu traço predominante. Nesse modelo de masculinidade, “ser homem” gravita fundamentalmente nos pilares da força e da virilidade, atributos que declinam com o tempo no intercurso do processo de envelhecimento. Com isso, a identidade do homem quando atinge a velhice é posta em xeque em razão das mudanças nas respostas sexuais por ocasião da disfunção erétil e, também, pela saída do mundo do trabalho em função da aposentadoria ou pela debilidade de saúde. Por conta disso, os homens idosos apresentam resistência na aceitação da velhice, uma vez que ela se apresenta como o decreto da invalidez masculina e inutilidade social. Este trabalho tem como objetivo discutir a produção dos sentidos de violência e de autoviolência por homens idosos que se recusam aceitar o envelhecimento em nome da validação masculina. A metodologia se nutre de uma abordagem interdisciplinar a partir de uma pesquisa de iniciação científica realizada no interior de uma cidade da Amazônia com homens idosos com poder aquisitivo de consumo. Depreendemos que a cristalização dos preceitos hegemônicos de masculinidade corrobora com a menor longevidade dos homens e com a potencialização de suas doenças físicas e psíquicas.

Authors: İpek İrem , Tuncer Kevser
Published: November 2024

Background: Early childhood caries (ECC) causes serious and widespread oral health problems in children. This study aimed to evaluate the knowledge, attitudes and clinical practices of undergraduate dental students about ECC. Method: The study included 4th and 5th year dental intern students who were treating patients. A 16-question survey form was prepared using the literature and the questionnaire prepared with the online survey program was sent via Google Forms. Distributions were compared using Pearson Chi-square test. A significant difference was defined as 0.05. Results: When the awareness and knowledge levels about ECC were examined, 4th grade students had lower knowledge levels than 5th grade students. 5th grade students reported that they examined and diagnosed a higher rate of ECC cases. Conclusion: It is important to make clinical trainings more comprehensive and systematic for the prevention and treatment of ECC.
Political Influence and German Holocaust Memory: A Historiography
Authors: Hooper Amanda
Published: November 2024

The way the world remembers the Holocaust has been ever-changing since the end of the Second World War. Throughout Holocaust discourse, the word “memory” takes on many different meanings. From cultural memory to public memory, there are many subcategories that break down the meaning of memory and how it functions as a conceptual lens to understand how societies remember their histories. Memory is used for many different roles including serving the past and the present, and for political interests. With such an all-encompassing topic, its scholarship is certainly brimming with information and ideas amongst scholars of various disciplines. Through their work, they have established endless ways in which memory is utilized and defined for individuals, the public, political actors, for commemoration, and memorialization. This essay analyzes the work of scholars of Holocaust memory in Germany who largely focus on the sites and expressions of memory in Germany’s capital city, Berlin. Scholars such as James E. Young, Jeffrey Blustein, Jan Weiner Müller, Mark Callaghan, Aleida Assmann, Siobhan Kattago, and Jennifer Jordon address the connectiveness of German national identity and political involvement. They stress that German collective memory related to the construction of national identity in the postwar era and that the erection of Holocaust memorials in Berlin and throughout the country was an attempt to consolidate and address national guilt. As Germany worked to face Nazi history through memorialization, it becomes abundantly clear that there are many layers of heavy political involvement in shaping German memory on both national and international levels.
This article will discuss the work of sixteen books that examine political involvement in memory work in Germany.

What Could We Expect When Quantum Meets Medicine?
Authors: Robsahm Lars
Published: November 2024

The convergence of quantum physics and medicine has the potential to transform healthcare in unprecedented ways. Quantum computers can process vast quantities of data with unmatched velocity, facilitating more precise diagnoses and customized treatment strategies aligned with each individual’s distinct genetic profile. Quantum sensors can identify diseases in their initial stages, facilitating preemptive measures prior to the manifestation of symptoms. Quantum encryption technology guarantees the utmost preservation of patient privacy and data security. Additionally, quantum concepts like superposition and entanglement may soon be utilized for innovative medicines that precisely target individual molecules, hence reducing side effects and enhancing efficacy. As researchers investigate the intersection of quantum mechanics and medicine, we anticipate a future in which healthcare is proactive, preventive, and genuinely individualized rather than merely reactive.
An Investigation into the Mental Structure of Science Teacher Candidates towards the Concept of “Atom”
Authors: Yaşar Mehmet Diyaddin
Published: November 2024

This study aimed to identify science teacher candidates’ mental structures about the concept of the atom. This study included 120 science teacher candidates who were chosen using the convenience sampling method. This research is a pheno-menological study. The data on students’ mental models of the atom was collected using a metaphor form and an open-ended question form. Forms were utilized to collect written feedback from teaching candidates. The research data were subjected to content analysis. In addition, the MAXQDA application was utilized to assess and generate categorization. As a result of the research, science teacher candidates’ mental structures about the concept of the atom were divided into six major categories. It has been discovered that atom models are most vividly represented in the mental structures of science teacher candidates while addressing the concept of the atom. Then, mental structures relating to the atom’s structural properties, definition or conceptual explanation, historical process, subatomic particles, and functional function arose in that order. When the codes in these categories were reviewed in detail, it was discovered that the explanations provided were extremely cursory.
