Candidates for potato varieties bred at the Polar Experimental Station VIR
Authors: Travina S. N.
Published: October 2023

The VIR potato doublet collection maintained at the Polar Experimental Station, includes more than 300 intervarietal hybrids created by the branch’s employees. The work on obtaining and evaluating intervarietal hybrids was carried out in the conditions of the Murmansk region from 1985 to 1999. The source material was the doublet world potato collection VIR. We selected samples: 21/8516 and 15/881. Hybrid 21/8516 was obtained by crossing medium–early and early varieties (Isna × Khibinsky early); 15/881 – by crossing medium-late and early varieties (Krostar N × Khibinsky early). The authors of hybrids 21/8516 (conditional name “Severyanin” and 15/881 (conditional name “Katerina”) are: G.D. Melnichuk, E.M. Vasilyeva, S.V. Abakshina, From 2000 to the present, work is underway to maintain and reproduce these samples. The samples differ in early maturity and yield (46,0 t/ha – from the “Severyanin”; 37,8 t/ha – from “Katerina”), large tubers (tuber weight 98-100 g from the hybrid “Katerina”), good taste, resistance to stressful environmental conditions, environmental plasticity. They can be used in addition to those grown in the Murmansk region. Candidate hybrids are recommended for cultivation in the Murmansk Region in addition to existing varieties. Currently, work is underway to transfer these hybrids to state testing and to enter them into the register of potato varieties.
Sv. Marjeta v Šašljevih Svetnikih in svetnicah v slovenskih pregovorih in vremenskih prislovicah (1937–1939)
Authors: Stramljič Breznik Irena
Published: October 2023

V prispevku s hagiografske perspektive obravnavamo paremije, ki jih je Ivan Šašelj v zbirki Svetniki in svetnice v slovenskih pregovorih in vremenskih prislovicah zbral za sv. Marjeto Antiohijsko, ki goduje 20. julija. Pregovorne strukture tipološko sodijo med kmetijska in vremenska predvidevanja ter stavčne primere. Kot stalne zveze so v jezikovno obliko pretvorjeni znaki kulture, zato z odkrivanjem bogatega prepleta legende in ljudske domišljije o življenju sv. Marjete ter iz dveh kratkih poučnih in razlagalnih pripovedk s kulturološkim pristopom ugotavljamo, kakšna so njihova ozadja nastanka in s tem odnos skupnosti do svetnice.
Analiza naratoloških vidikov Vita Antonii in njen pomen za psihiatrijo
Authors: Kastelic Martin Peter , Škodlar Borut
Published: October 2023

Naratološka analiza ene najznamenitejših in najvplivnejših hagiografij vseh časov, Življenja sv. Antona (Vita Antonii), izpod peresa njegovega učenca, sv. Atanazija, lahko odstira zanimive vidike razumevanja in sporočilnosti besedila. Skoznjo lahko lažje razbiramo fenomenologijo duhovnih izkustev in psiholoških naravnanosti, ki jih posreduje besedilo. Ob tem so zelo pomembna vprašanja (ne)zanesljivosti pripovedovalca, ki so povezana z mnogimi konteksti, kot so epistemološki, aletski, etični, psihodinamski, intencionalni idr. Naratološka analiza lahko tako pomaga drugim pristopom – v našem primeru psihološko-psihiatričnim analizam – izolirati pripovedne in fokalizacijske instance, da lahko bolj natančno sledimo posameznim (psihološkim) vidikom besedila. Hagiografska poročila vsebujejo namreč bogat nabor najrazličnejših uvidov in pristopov, ki duhovnemu iskalcu nudijo oporo in spodbudo pri lastnem iskanju, obenem pa mu svetujejo in ga varujejo pred zablodami in zdrsi pri duhovnem napredovanju. Izsledki naratoloških in psihodinamskih analiz lahko prispevajo k jasnejšemu vpogledu, kako lahko sporočila hagiografij prenašamo v sodobne kontekste.
La invención de los celos
Authors: Konstan David
Published: October 2023

En este artículo propongo la idea de que, en la Grecia clásica, no existía el concepto de un sentimiento que corresponda precisamente al de los celos en el mundo occidental moderno. Investigo el significado de la palabra zélotupia, que con frecuencia se traduce por "celos", y demuestro que no tenía exactamente este sentido en los textos griegos antiguos. Sin embargo, si había poco espacio en la cultura de la Grecia arcaica para el desarrollo de la idea de celos en el sentido romántico, en Roma en el siglo primero a.C. las condiciones favorecían la formación de tal concepto, concretamente en la poesía amatoria de Horacio y los autores de la elegía erótica.

Competencia lectora de estudiantes de Pedagogía: el desafío de quienes enseñan lengua
Authors: San Martín Sepúlveda Nelly Michelle
Published: October 2023

El presente ensayo revela cómo la comprensión lectora de estudiantes escolares en Chile es un ámbito pendiente aún, en tanto no se muestra un mejoramiento real en los resultados de aprendizaje. Asimismo, establece que una de las razones puede estar centrada en los modelos de formación bajo los cuales se estructuran los planes de estudio de Pedagogía en las universidades del país, y, que el desarrollo de la lectura en el futuro profesorado no es un aspecto que se releve o intencione explícitamente y se evalúe en forma constante, pues se promueven, más bien, desempeños cognitivos de carácter memorístico. Finalmente, se enuncia que los egresados de la carrera de Pedagogía intentan favorecer las habilidades lectoras de sus estudiantes, sin haber alcanzado ellos mismos el logro de la competencia.
Evolution of occupational illness in Spain during 2009-2020: Territorial and industrial trends
Authors: Delgado-Sánchez Dayana
Published: October 2023

This study analyzes the temporal evolution of occupational illnesses and their causing agents in Spain during the period 2009-2020, paying close attention to territorial and industrial trends. Similar to the case of work accidents, results suggest a positive association between the state of the economic cycle and the incidence rate of occupational illnesses. The reported increase in occupational illnesses between 2009 and 2020 should not be interpreted as bad news. Regulatory changes underwent by Spain’s government introduced a logical harmonization in illnesses’ notification criteria, which led to a temporal convergence of occupational illnesses with and without work leave days. Also, legal reforms facilitated the updating of the list of occupational illnesses and their causing agents, which constitutes a sign that the level of protection of Spanish workers improved, in terms of occupational health and safety at the workplace
Colaboración entre grandes empresa y startups: una nueva forma de innovación abierta
Authors: Kantis Hugo , Menendez Cecilia , Álvarez-Martínez Paola , Federico Juan
Published: October 2023

De la mano de la aceleración del cambio tecnológico, las grandes empresas se han visto forzadas a revisar sus estrategias de innovación, buscando ser más flexibles, incorporar nuevos conocimientos más rápido y no perder así ventaja frente a sus competidores. En este marco, la vinculación con startups aparece como un candidato natural para estas estrategias de innovación abierta corporativa. Los resultados obtenidos en este artículo muestran que se trata de un fenómeno muy reciente pero en expansión, aunque con una fuerte concentración espacial en las economías más grandes de la región. Su principal motivación es la de innovar de forma más ágil y flexible, asumiendo múltiples formas y actividades pero sin estar circunscripto a empresas de sectores tecnológicos ni de capital extranjero. Asimismo, la mirada en profundidad sobre los casos estudiados muestra la existencia aún de tensiones y desafíos a nivel corporativo para poder incorporar al trabajo con startups dentro de las rutinas y procesos ya existentes así como la importancia de una alineación de expectativas de uno y otro lado de la relación en cuanto a los compromisos y resultados esperados. Además, aquellos casos que están más avanzados en estas iniciativas muestran la importancia de que éstas sean concebidas como emprendimientos en sí mismos y tengan una fuerte alineación estratégica con su “organización madre” (la corporación). Varias líneas de investigación futura se desprenden de estos resultados para nutrir un campo de investigación aún por despegar en América Latina.

The study contributes to the situational crisis communication literature by understanding the characteristics of crisis communication during a crisis period in popular entrepreneurship hashtags.
Assessment of urban development: A composite indicator analysis of the safe city index through the ‘benefit of the doubt’ model
Authors: Burgoa Nadine , Rosado Andre
Published: October 2023

This study employs the ‘benefit of the doubt’ (BOD) weighting model to build a composite indicator to evaluate urban development in 60 cities located around the world for 2021. The results of the empirical application based on the data provided by The Economist (i.e., safe city index) reveal the informative power of the proposed composite indicator, relative to models using equal weight restrictions. Findings indicate that there are significant efficiency differences among the analyzed cities, and that cities follow different strategic pathways when it comes to design urban policies. This suggests that there is much scope for strategic and effective support policy in many cities. The results of the study highlight that an analysis based on the BOD approach may offer useful information to policy makers on what strategic actions may potentially optimize the allocation of local resources and, subsequently, enhance urban development.
Efecto del flujo variable del aire en la eficiente energética de un sistema centralizado de aire de combustión
Authors: Marrero-Ramírez Secundino , Vega-Areas Orlando , González-Palau Iliana Antonia
Published: October 2023

En la investigación se analiza como el control manual en el sistema de aire de combustión en hornos de una planta metalúrgica puede generar sobreconsumo de energía, al utilizar la estrangulación de un dámper con el uso de válvulas manipuladas para regular de forma manual el flujo de aire, donde los ventiladores centrífugos del sistema trabajan todo el tiempo a plena capacidad y esto produce pérdidas de energía eléctrica, debido a la dinámica operativa del sistema. La demanda del sistema es variable y su programarla resulta difícil, por ello se evaluó una alternativa que consiste en controlar el accionamiento de los ventiladores a través de variadores de velocidad con un lazo de control proporcional integral que permite establecer el flujo de aire a través de la medición no directa del flujo de aire, utilizando la variable presión para lograr una reducción de la demanda de potencia del 30 % con el sistema de control.

La sostenibilidad de las zonas urbanas hoy en día enfrenta grandes desafíos, debido a los altos niveles de contaminación causados por la densidad poblacional. Por consiguiente, la disponibilidad del recurso hídrico se ve cada vez más comprometido, producto a la inapropiada gestión de residuos sólidos y líquidos, generados por diferentes actividades humanas. El río Ocloro es un claro ejemplo de esta problemática, el deterioro de su salud ambiental es una evidencia de ello. Para conocerla, se utilizó una metodología mixta, el primer método fue la caracterización de la calidad del agua mediante parámetros fisicoquímicos y microbiológicos, posteriormente, la determinación del índice holandés, obteniendo un total de 16 muestras clase 5 “contaminación muy severa” y 4 muestras clase 4 “contaminación severa”, del 2019 al 2021. En la segunda etapa se aplicó una encuesta de percepción entre un sector específico de la población de Barrio Luján, alcanzando información de 80 viviendas, donde 54 personas indicaron haber tenido afectación por la contaminación del río; asimismo, la mayoría calificó el nivel de contaminación en 8, donde 10 era el valor con mayor nivel de contaminación. Finalmente se utilizó el método POSH, el cual permitió identificar algunas de las principales fuentes puntuales de contaminación en las cercanías del río, determinando 27,1 % de contaminación elevada, 22,3 % de contaminación moderada y 50,6 % de contaminación reducida; este último le corresponde a la parte norte de la microcuenca en los barrios de San Pedro, Los Yoses y Francisco Peralta.

Published: October 2023

Las aguas residuales inadecuadamente tratadas son un factor de riesgo para la salud pública dado que son un vehículo de diseminación de microorganismos patógenos como virus entéricos. Sin embargo, la circulación de patógenos virales en esta matriz ha sido poco estudiada en la región. El objetivo de este trabajo fue describir la presencia de cinco virus enteropatógenos y parámetros operativos básicos, en afluentes y efluentes de cinco plantas de tratamiento de aguas residuales (PTAR) con sistemas de lodos activados, ubicadas en el Gran Área Metropolitana de Costa Rica durante el 2013. Los patógenos virales estudiados fueron: enterovirus, virus de hepatitis A, rotavirus A, norovirus G1 y norovirus G2 (determinados por PCR punto final); mientras que los parámetros de control de rendimiento analizados incluyeron disponibilidad bioquímica de oxígeno, disponibilidad química de oxígeno, sólidos suspendidos, sólidos sedimentables, grasas y aceites, sustancias activas al azul de metileno y coliformes fecales. A nivel fisicoquímico todas las plantas mostraron un rendimiento aceptable, caso contrario a los parámetros microbiológicos, todos los virus investigados fueron detectados en aguas tratadas y no tratadas durante todo el año, siendo más frecuentes durante la época seca. El virus más frecuente fue rotavirus, seguido por norovirus G1. En conclusión, este estudio describe que durante el periodo estudiado las PTAR fueron eficientes en la remoción de parámetros fisicoquímicos, y que la circulación de virus entéricos es común en las PTAR estudiadas. Por ello, es necesaria la inclusión de procesos de desinfección adicionales para una descarga segura de las aguas tratadas.
Estrategia de monitoreo hídrico comunitario para la microcuenca río Jorco basado en el análisis de indicadores fisicoquímicos, microbiológicos y biológicos de la calidad de agua
Authors: Calvo-Brenes Guillermo , Salazar-Céspedes Karla
Published: October 2023

Las profundas deficiencias que enfrenta el país en políticas de gestión hídrica se reflejan en la contaminación fisicoquímica, microbiológica y biológica de los ríos nacionales. El objetivo de este estudio fue proponer una estrategia de monitoreo hídrico comunitario para mejorar la gestión del río Jorco ubicado en el cantón de Acosta. Se monitoreó la calidad del agua en la parte alta, media y baja de la microcuenca durante la época lluviosa, utilizando dos índices de calidad (ICA) fisicoquímicos: el Holandés y el Calvo-TEC; así como uno biológico: el BMWP-CR. Los indicadores de calidad de turbiedad, alcalinidad, amoniaco, nitrógeno amoniacal, nitratos, y coliformes fecales superaron los límites de permisibilidad en algunos muestreos; sin embargo, el oxígeno disuelto mostró que existen buenos niveles de oxígeno para la recuperación del río. La demanda bioquímica de oxígeno fue baja, indicando una carga orgánica baja y los macroinvertebrados mostraron un ecosistema acuático degradado. El ICA Holandés sobrevaloró la calidad del agua con respecto al ICA Calvo-TEC. Este último mostró resultados más realistas debido a que utiliza más indicadores de calidad, ya que este parte de las condiciones ambientales y la normativa costarricense. Por su parte, el ICA BMWP-CR reveló una contaminación extrema durante el mes de mayor lluvia. Se concluyó que existe un problema de contaminación en el agua del río cuyas causas principales pueden ser por la falta de cobertura boscosa en las zonas riparias, la expansión del cultivo de café, el vertido de aguas residuales domésticas y las actividades ganaderas. Por lo tanto, se propuso al consejo municipal un plan de acción y validado con ellos, con el fin de mejorar la calidad del agua con participación de diferentes actores de la zona.
Trauma Informed Care Scale: Turkish Validity and Reliability Study
Authors: TEKİN Hasan H. , BAYAR Yusuf
Published: October 2023

The aim of this study is to adapt the trauma-informed care scale, a scale developed to measure the level of knowledge, attitude and practice related to trauma-informed care, to Turkish culture by making the appropriate analysis. 161 mental health professionals participated in this survey model study. The data of the study were collected by using the convenience sampling method, the demographic information form and the Trauma Informed Care Scale. The data were generated through the online data collection platform surveey.com. It was determined that most of the mental health professionals (70.2%) in the study had never heard of the trauma-informed care model, and 87% did not use this model in their practice. The EFA analysis showed that a 3-factor structure was emerged, which explained 50.36% of the total variance and in which all items were included in the subscales of the original scale. According to the results of the analyzes, 3 items in the Attitude subscale were removed from the total items of the scale and the final version of 18 items scale that could be used in Turkish culture was created. The correlation analyzes showed that the total mean score was highly and positively correlated with all subscales. The Trauma-Informed Care Scale is a reliable measurement tool with proven structural validity and suitable for use by mental health professionals (physicians, nurses, psychologists, psychological counselors, social workers) working with trauma survivors, and researchers planning studies on trauma-informed care and/or trauma-sensitive care.
Essential Components for Presenting Efficient Small Group Instruction
Authors: E Morse Timothy
Published: October 2023

Students demonstrating persistent, significant learning challenges - which means their academic achievement is deemed to be multiple grade-levels below their age-appropriate grade level - must be provided systematic instruction designed to remediate their academic achievement deficits. In the United States, it has been estimated that 5%-10% of a school’s students will present persistent, significant learning challenges that require ongoing remedial instruction.
Microlearning-Supported Telehealth Approach for Addressing Developmental Disorders in Children: Challenges and Opportunities in Pakistan
Authors: Yawar Rukaiya
Published: October 2023

The aim of this paper is to explore the potential of microlearning-supported telerehabilitation as an effective means of building the capacity of caregivers of developmentally disabled children in Pakistan. Due to the global spread of the COVID-19 pandemic, telehealth has become a vital tool for delivering healthcare services remotely. However, in many developing countries, such as Pakistan, the lack of high-speed internet and infrastructure presents significant challenges for the implementation of telehealth. To address this issue, we developed “Sehat Agahi”, a telehealth platform that provides asynchronous interactions between therapists and caregivers in Pakistan. Our approach utilizes microlearning, focusing on teaching the most relevant skills tailored to the needs of the child-patients and the capacity of the caregivers. Bite-sized lessons are delivered in a flexible learning style, ensuring maximum engagement and retention of knowledge. We adopted a participatory action research methodology, which involved members of the marginalized community to understand the barriers and knowledge gaps in learning. To illustrate the potential of our approach, we present several hypothetical cases based on observations made during the participatory research.
Autism and Camouflaging Strategies
Authors: Sepiadou Iwanna
Published: October 2023

Autism has been defined on the basis of communication and social problems and repetitive behaviors, which can vary in people along a continuum of severity [1]. In general, autism is understood to be a neurodevelopmental condition. The characteristic symptoms of autism can be distinguished from typical development as early as 18-24 months of age. Diagnosis most often occurs during childhood, but some individuals are being diagnosed later in adulthood [2]. As far as epidemiology is concerned, recent studies continue to report an increase in measured prevalence over time. The international community witnessed tremendous positive improvements in public awareness and public health response for autism, however, neither a cause nor a cure have been found so far. Thus, there is an urgent need for further investigation of this phenomenon.
Stiff Person Syndrome Mimicking as Atypical Parkinson’s Disease - A Diagnostic Dilemma
Authors: Somappa Aakash Kodikoppa
Published: October 2023

Stiff person syndrome (SPS) is a rare neurological disorder characterized by stiffness and spasm of the truncal muscles and subsequent postural deformities. In this report, we present a case of a woman in her early 60s who presented to us with muscle stiffness, back pain, and frequent falls. On examination, she was found to have increased muscle tone and mild tremors. Given her age and presentation, a provisional diagnosis of Atypical Parkinson’s was made. Patient was treated with Diazepam. Because of presence of autoimmune co-morbid conditions, anti-glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD) antibodies were tested, which were positive, and thus, diagnosis of SPS was made. Treatment with Diazepam was continued, and her symptoms significantly improved. Even though SPS is a rare disorder, our case report highlights the need to keep it in differential diagnoses when an elderly patient presents with stiffness and postural instability, as treatment for SPS and atypical Parkinson’s vary considerably.

Published: October 2023

En esta era de la Cuarta Revolución Industrial, las pymes se enfrentan a diversos retos (Romain, 2019). Por ello, advierte Senge (2005), la adecuada gestión del cambio resulta decisivo para el éxito de las organizaciones. La CEPAL (2020) estima que solo 1 de cada 4 pymes podrá afrontar con éxito estos desafíos, siendo las más afectadas, las empresas manufactureras (CEPAL, 2020). En Latinoamérica, 1 de cada 8 empresas manufactureras, se dedica a producir textiles y, en Perú, el sector manufacturero textil es la tercera actividad económica que más aporta el PBI manufacturero, siendo el Emporio Comercial de Gamarra, el lugar que aglomera aproximadamente 8 de cada 10 empresas peruanas de este sector. Por ello, estudiar los factores que facilitan la gestión del cambio en este tipo de pymes, resulta fundamental para colaborar con el desarrollo de estas. En ese sentido, la presente investigación analiza la influencia de la innovación en la gestión del cambio en las pymes del Emporio Comercial de Gamarra en Lima Metropolitana. El estudio es de tipo cuantitativo, de alcance explicativo y de corte transversal. Para llevarlo a cabo, se realizó una encuesta semiestructurada, validada por expertos, que fue aplicada a 155 gerentes de pymes del sector ubicadas en Gamarra, con el apoyo del Consejo Directivo de la Asociación Empresarial Gamarra. El estudio se centra en la experiencia de los gerentes durante el año 2021 y concluye que existe una influencia significativa entre ambas variables.

Formation of pro-Soviet student organizations in Europe in the 1920s
Authors: Petachenko G.
Published: October 2023

The paper is devoted to the creation and activities of pro-Soviet student organizations, which began to form in Europe since the early 1920s. The largest organizations of pro-Soviet students were located in Czechoslovakia, Germany, France and Austria, where there were the most favorable conditions for education, initially they had no common organization and acted on their own initiative. Most of these unions sought to establish relations with representatives of Soviet organizations. For its part, the Soviet leadership sought to use these unions for political purposes to disunite emigrant circles in Europe, but during the 1920s the position of the Soviet side was transformed towards the training of professional personnel for the USSR.
New data on iron production in Eastern Fennoscandia (second half of the I millennium BC – beginning of the I millennium AD)
Authors: Zhul'nikov A.
Published: October 2023

The paper presents new data on iron production in Eastern Fennoscandia during the Early Iron Age, second half of the I millennium BC – beginning of the I millennium AD. Radiocarbon dating indicates that the mass production of raw iron in this region began no later than the IV – III centuries BC. Three main types of kilns were used: a stone box kiln, a pit kiln, and a kiln made of stones and clay. Kilns of the first and second types are the earliest, while the kilns of the third type began to be used towards the end of the Early Iron Age. Perhaps, they were structurally similar to medieval iron-making kilns. Kilns of the first and third types have traces of multiple uses. Iron production sites in Eastern Fennoscandia were often located outside the settlements, with many found on hills or near water reservoirs to take advantage of the wind to fan the flames. Ceramic nozzle tubes found at some sites suggest the use of artificial air supply in the second half of the I millennium BC for iron smelting or forging. The paper also suggests that flat-bottomed, bucket-shaped asbestos vessels may have been used to harden iron tools during the Early Iron Age. These vessels were made of refractory clay and asbestos fibers and could have been used as crucibles where iron objects were carbonized by heating to high temperatures in contact with charcoal. Finally, it is noted that in winter, iron forging was carried out in dwellings where the metal was heated in domestic hearths. In summer, large kilns made of vertically placed stone plates were used for this purpose, as evidenced by the Tomitsa site on the western shore of Onega Lake.

The paper deals with the collection of earthenware dishes discovered during archaeological research of the archaeological site "Izhevsk Plant Settlement" in Izhevsk, Udmurt Republic. A preliminary analysis of one of the items categories - earthenware tableware that existed in the Izhevsk factory settlement in the second half of the XIX - first quarter of the XX century, is given. The analysis of items, their morphology, ornamentation, and the binding of the available hallmarks to the faience factories of the Urals and central Russia is given. The collection includes plates of various types, salad bowls, mugs, milk jugs, tureens. Until the 1880s, the Izhevsk population mainly used tableware of Ural production, and, since the last quarter of the XIX century, almost completely switched to the "Kuznetsov" ware.
Contradictions of the colonial policy of the Russian Empire that prevented the colonization of the Hawaiian Islands at the beginning of the XIX century
Authors: Nosihin D.
Published: October 2023

The paper, based on the archival sources, deals with the period of Russian colonization of the Hawaiian Islands, reasons for its beginning and end. Furthermore, the paper considers the colonial policy of the Russian Empire in general, gives the factors that influenced colonization and formulates its main contradiction. The beginning of the paper describes the situation in the North Pacific region of the early XIX century, which, it would seem, favored the colonial development of the Russian Empire. The period of Russian colonization of the Hawaiian Islands, which was conducted under the leadership of Dr. Georg Schaeffer and ended in failure, is described. Then the reasons for the negative reaction of the Russian government to Schaeffer’s activity and the refusal of further claims to the Hawaiian Islands are considered, which, among other things, was influenced by the alleged main contradiction of the colonial policy of the Russian Empire – the creation of a Russian-American Company modeled on the colonial companies of other empires, but at the same time they treated their colonies as a kind of buffer zone at their borders, which may have led, ultimately, to the loss of these lands.
Organization of administrative districts in the European North of Russia in 1861
Authors: Popov S.
Published: October 2023

The paper deals with the analysis of the organization of administrative districts in the Uyezds of the Vologda and Olonets provinces inhabited by landowner peasants. The source base of the study was made up of office materials identified in the funds of the Russian State Historical Archive. Consideration of the stated problem was carried out from the position of "center – periphery", i.e. within the framework of studying the interaction of the government with the provincial authorities. The study showed that the process of forming administrative districts in the Uyezds of residence of landowner peasants was completed by the end of June, and the approval of conciliators in them – in early August 1861. Almost all of them were located in the territories of concentration of the majority of serfs. Realizing the task, the governors faced the problem of uneven settlement of serfs and the predominance of small-scale landlords. In solving it, they tried to unite the villages of temporarily obligated peasants so that the Uyezd officials could perform their duties without unnecessary difficulties, and so that significant expenses for their maintenance were not required. The local authorities argued their point of view in front of government agencies. In turn, the Ministry supported their vision regarding the most effective structure of the administrative districts.

Authors: İŞCEN KARASU Fadime , KAYAHAN YÜKSEL Didem
Published: October 2023

The purpose of this research is to examine the competencies of primary schools for inclusive education practices from the point of view of classroom teachers. The research was designed in a quantitative scanning design. The study group of the research consists of 221 classroom teachers working in primary schools in a province in the Central Anatolia Region of Turkey. As a data collection tool, the “Competence Scale for Inclusive Education Practices of Schools” developed by Yazıcıoğlu and Sümer-Dodur (2021) was used. Scale; It consists of four dimensions and 25 items in the form of teacher knowledge level, school guidance services, environmental educational regulation and support education room services. After obtaining the relevant permissions, the research data were collected by the researchers through the selection of voluntary participants by interviewing the school administrations one by one and giving information about the research. An online data collection tool was sent to the teachers who volunteered to participate in the study. The data collection process took 85 days. SPSS-29 was used in the analysis of the data obtained from the research, and descriptive statistics, T-test and ANOVA test were performed. According to the findings obtained from the research, the qualifications for inclusive education practices are lower in village schools than in provincial and district schools. There is a significant difference between the low socio-economic level and the middle socio-economic level in favor of the middle level. In addition, there is a parallelism between the physical competencies of schools and their competencies for inclusive education practices. There is a positive significant difference between the presence of a supportive education classroom and guidance service in schools and their competencies for inclusive education practices. There is a similar relationship in the case of information activities and cooperation in schools. In this context, it is recommended to policy makers to improve physical facilities, especially starting from schools in rural areas, and to establish separate support education rooms and guidance services in schools. In addition, curricula can be developed in order to increase the existing cooperation and information in schools. Researchers can design studies that examine the impact of collaboration and information on the success of inclusive education practices.

Communication politique oscillant entre l’Ethos Dit/Montré. Politiques Educatives vs. Séismes ?
Authors: EREN Ebru
Published: October 2023

Qui dit « communication politique » dit « discours politique », qui dit « discours » dit « ethos-pathos-logos » : alors que le pathos fait appel aux émotions du public et le logos relève de la raison et de l’argumentation, l’ethos est l’image que le locuteur donne de lui-même à travers son propre discours. Mais quel est le rôle du discours politique dans la construction de l’ethos ? A la manière de la rhétorique, la communication politique repose sur la stratégie de persuasion de l’électorat. Les politiques éducatives par exemple, constituent le focus de la communication politique. Mais comment la communication politique transforme-t-elle la politique éducative en un produit idéologique en Turquie ? Nous supposerons que celles-ci sont des discours basés sur l’ethos dit/montré. Nous analyserons la construction de l’ethos dit/montré dans le discours du Président du Conseil de l’Enseignement supérieur qu’il a prononcé lors des séismes de Gaziantep-Kahramanmaraş en février 2023.
Sobre el uso de imágenes fotográficas como prueba en casos de violencia sexual
Authors: Bonorino Pablo R.
Published: October 2023

¿Es necesario incluir descripciones detalladas del contenido de las imágenes fotográficas utilizadas como prueba en casos de violencia sexual en las sentencias judiciales? En este artículo sostendremos (1) que las imágenes fotográficas se introducen en una argumentación probatoria a través de afirmaciones que describen su contenido y afirmaciones que lo interpretan, (2) que ambos tipos de afirmaciones son el producto de inferencias mentales (hipercodificadas e hipocodificadas) que pueden ser explicitadas verbalmente para someterlas a un control intersubjetivo, (3) que en los casos de violencia sexual los órganos decisores deberían argumentar de forma entimemática al justificar sus decisiones, incorporando solo las premisas más generales de sus inferencias hipocodificadas y evitando reproducir sus inferencias hipercodificadas. De esta manera podrían garantizar el derecho de defensa de los acusados y el derecho a la tutela judicial efectiva, sin vulnerar innecesariamente el derecho a la intimidad de las víctimas.
Seguridad jurídica
Authors: Pino Giorgio
Published: October 2023

El ensayo analiza el concepto de seguridad jurídica cuestionando la generalizada asunción de que la seguridad jurídica sea una cuestión de predictibilidad. La seguridad jurídica, se argumenta, no es una cuestión de mera predictibilidad de los resultados de las decisiones judiciales, sino más bien una cuestión atinente a la correcta identificación de las consecuencias jurídicas de un determinado caso. Teniendo en cuenta esta aclaración, el ensayo ofrece un tentativo escrutinio acerca de cuál es el lugar de la seguridad jurídica en la teoría y en la práctica del Estado constitucional.

The Iberian wolf (Canis lupus signatus) is recolonizing historical distribution areas after decades of absence. As in other human-dominated landscapes, finding a balance to protect this species by favoring recolonization and mitigating human-wildlife conflicts is a challenge. Since wolves are often generalist opportunistic predators, we studied their diet composition in the Central Spain to evaluate the consumption of domestic ungulates and provide reliable data that help local authorities to deal with the current wolf-cattle ranchers conflict and coexistence. Diet composition (% prey occurrence, % prey ingested biomass) was analyzed through the identification of prey hairs present in 671 scats collected between 2017 and 2021. Wolves fed more on wild ungulates (82% occurrence) than domestic ones (18%). Wild boar (Sus scrofa, 44% occurrence) and roe deer (Capreolus capreolus, 35%) were the most consumed prey. Wolves positively selected these two species. The wolf's diet varied between seasons, years, and forest regions, but a diet based on wild ungulates predominated over domestic ones. Food niche breadth and showed variations depending on seasons and years. Preserving the availability and diversity of wild ungulates may favor reducing livestock attacks and would be an achievable goal that help to conserve this species and reduce conservation conflicts.
