Regulacyjna funkcja Narodowego Banku Polskiego. Zagadnienia podstawowe
Authors: Komierzyńska-Orlińska Eliza
Published: March 2024

Artykuł naukowy odnosi się do podstawowych zagadnień dotyczących regulacyjnej funkcji Narodowego Banku Polskiego. Celem opracowania jest wykazanie, że Narodowy Bank Polski oprócz funkcji emisyjnej, funkcji banku państwa i funkcji banku banków, które są tradycyjnie przypisywane bankom centralnym, pełni także funkcję regulacyjną. W artykule postawiono następującą hipotezę: regulacyjna funkcja Narodowego Banku polskiego jest możliwa do wyinterpretowania w oparciu o tradycyjne funkcje tego banku, a w szczególności o funkcję emisyjną i funkcję banku banków oraz wynikające z nich zadania. Za podjęciem tego zagadnienia przemawia w szczególności fakt kluczowego znaczenia NBP i pełnionych przez niego funkcji dla państwa, gospodarki, społeczeństwa. Ponadto problematyka regulacyjnej funkcji NBP czy też określenia jego charakteru prawnego jako regulatora nie jest często przedmiotem pogłębionych analiz naukowych. Z założenia więc analiza zagadnienia funkcji regulacyjnej NBP ma wartość naukową, jak i praktyczną.
Standardy praw człowieka w zakresie autopsji i ekshumacji – refleksje na gruncie prawa i praktyki Rady Europy
Authors: Wedeł-Domaradzka Agnieszka
Published: March 2024

Sekcja zwłok i ekshumacja uważane są za naruszenie jednego z największych świętości ludzkości, jaką jest spokój zmarłych. Większość religii i kultur opowiada się za niemal całkowitym poszanowaniem tej wartości. Są jednak sytuacje, w których konieczna jest interwencja w ten spokój. Interwencje te uzasadnione są koniecznością ustalenia przyczyn zgonu, okoliczności zgonu, losów zmarłego czy koniecznością należytego kultu. Istotne jest jednak, aby ingerencja była przeprowadzana zgodnie z najwyższymi możliwymi standardami postępowania. Niestety, standardy ten jest możliwy do osiągnięcia na poziomie krajowym tylko czasami. Ze względu na uniwersalność wartości wiele w tym zakresie można wyczytać z działalności prawodawczej Rady Europy i orzecznictwa Europejskiego Trybunału Praw Człowieka. Celem analizy jest rekonstrukcja tych standardów oraz wskazanie ich skuteczności i ewentualnej potrzeby zmian lub uzupełnień. Daje także wgląd w najczęstsze przyczyny naruszania praw osób będących bliskimi zmarłego.
Prawne rozumienie powstania i ustania swobody woli
Authors: Savchenko Viktor
Published: March 2024

Free will is an essential legal idea that determines the nature of legal relations. Free will is essential for private law, as it shapes the mechanisms for entering into contracts, fulfilling obligations, the scope of civil capacity, adherence to the principles of discretion, voluntariness, fairness, etc. The purpose of the paper is to determine the dynamics of freedom of will and to provide a legal justification for the moment of its emergence and termination. The scope of free will is dynamic; it arises at birth and changes throughout life. The scope of free will is related to two main criteria: the level of intelligence and the scope of civil capacity. Minor children, people with limited civil capacity, and incapacitated persons have the lowest level of free will. The scope of free will also vary within a specific civil capacity. Free will may be temporarily suspended when someone is unaware of their actions. A complete, irreversible loss of free will occurs only in the event of death. From that moment on, a person ceases to be a party to legal relations and a legal person.
Implementacja zasad ONZ dotyczących skutecznego przesłuchania i przesłuchiwania – perspektywy dla Polski i Litwy (COST Action CA22128: IMPLEMENDEZ)
Authors: Solodov Denis , Laurinaitytė Ilona
Published: March 2024

Studies show that in criminal cases, most evidence is obtained through interviews and interrogations. Effective interviewing tactics, therefore, should be seen as an essential component of legal education, education and training of police officers and other law enforcement personnel. The Méndez Principles on effective interviewing and interrogation adopted in 2021 under the auspices of the United Nations offer an alternative to coercive, deceptive and confession-based interviewing and interrogation techniques. Grounded in extensive empirical and scientific research, the Principles promote rapport-based communication and the model of the investigative interview. In the article, the authors analyse these principles considering the existing legal framework and recommendations of European criminalistics. The primary objective is to identify the advantages of the implementation of the new model within the context of Polish and Lithuanian criminal proceedings. Potential challenges that might arise during the implementation process are also highlighted and analysed.

One-gateway system in managing campus information system using microservices architecture
Authors: Salim Yulita , Muis Ismunandar , Syafie Lukman , Azis Huzain , Rachman  Manga Abdul
Published: March 2024

Universitas Muslim Indonesia (UMI) has developed several applications for managing the campus's digital information and management systems, both internally and externally. However, several applications were previously created in the development of information system applications at UMI. However, these applications were not well-suited for long-term use due to their complexity and lack of integration. Therefore, UMI aims to create a fully integrated and well-managed campus information system by implementing the concept of microservices. The microservices approach involves dividing large applications into smaller interconnected components. This approach facilitates the management of application systems and enables better integration. Moreover, the microservices approach simplifies system maintenance for application developers, as each application is separated into smaller components

Recent Trends and Techniques in Landslide Hazard Assessment
Authors: Singh Uttara , Nandan Rahul , Tiwari Amit
Published: March 2024

Landslides are a serious concern in steep terrain where severe storms are common. The magnitude of landslide risk depends not only on storms and the physical characteristics of the land, but human activities, especially agricultural practices, are important. An essential stage in the management of landslide risk and hazard is landslide hazard assessment. Landslide Hazard Zone (LHZ) choice processes include intuitive, half size, Quantification, Probability and Multi-criteria approaches. Among the various techniques used traditionally, Multivariate approaches, albeit with limitations, to assess landslide risk at a regional scale Very feasible and cost effective. Over the past two decades, landslide research has expanded use of the sophisticated tools of remote sensing and geographic information systems (GIS) to study landslide hazards.
Willingness-To-Pay for Health Insurance: Protocol for a Comparative Study Between Formal and Informal Health-Workers
Authors: Al Fidah Md Fuad
Published: March 2024

INTRODUCTION

People in low- to middle-income countries (LMICs), such as Bangladesh, have less access to healthcare than those in wealthier nations with less than 1% of the population having access to social health protection, which is mostly limited to those who work in the formal sector (14.9% of all jobs). This comparative study aims to use the contingent valuation method (CVM) to determine the factors affection and compare the mean willingness-to-pay (WTP) for community-based health insurance (CBHI) between formal and informal health workers.

METHODS AND ANALYSIS

This comparative study will be conducted among 250 doctors who will be selected by a convenience sampling technique from various formal and informal workstations in Dhaka City. Of the 250 participants, 125 will be from each group. To collect data, a semi-structured questionnaire will be used via face-to-face interviews. Data will be processed and analyzed using R (v4.3.0) and RStudio (v2023.03.1). WTP for CBHI will be estimated using the “DCchoice” package. The primary outcome is to estimate the proportion and mean WTP across the groups and compare it using double bound dichotomous choice (DBDC) method. Secondary outcomes include identifying the socio-demographic, job-related and healthcare seeking-related factors that influence the WTP.

ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION

Ethics approval has been obtained from Institutional Review Board (IRB) of the National Institute of Preventive and Social Medicine (NIPSOM). Informed consent will be taken from each participant before data collection. The results of the study will be published in scientific, peer-reviewed journals.

STRENGTHS AND LIMITATIONS OF THIS STUDY

– The contingent valuation method is a well-established method of eliciting WTP for health insurance.
– The current study will be among the first of its nature as it will focus on formal and informal healthcare workers.
– Starting point bias may affect the result as this type of bias comes with the Double bounded dichotomous choice (DBDC) method used in this study.
Espacios de circulación y actores emergentes en el campo editorial argentino: análisis de dos casos
Authors: Urtubey Federico Eduardo
Published: March 2024

El presente artículo tiene por objetivo indagar los espacios de circulación y venta de dos sellos editoriales -Eloísa Cartonera y Editorial Funesiana- surgidos en Argentina en el 2002 y en el 2007, respectivamente, con vigencia en la actualidad. El texto, anclado en la perspectiva de la sociología de la cultura, propone una metodología de corte cualitativo, que se focaliza en el análisis de dos casos, ofreciendo como técnicas de recolección de datos el análisis de fuentes secundarias, entrevistas semi estructuradas y notas fruto de la observación participante. Si bien luego de la crisis económica del 2001 en Argentina comenzaron a detectarse cauces emergentes para la producción editorial local, este artículo apunta a inscribir a los mismos en el entramado de relaciones entre edición y publicación literaria sensiblemente transformado desde la apertura neoliberal de la década de 1990. Se concluye que los espacios de circulación priorizados por los sellos mencionados se articulan en torno a nuevos cánones de circulación y publicación editorial, configurando un esquema de actividad editorial alternativo al dominante. Tal indagación constituye un aporte en el campo de los estudios de sociedad y cultura en Argentina.
Ética pública, profesionalización y corrupción en México. Análisis del Efecto Chum
Authors: Lindor Moïse
Published: March 2024

Hay una preocupación permanente por el aumento de la corrupción, problema del cuate y Servicio Profesional de Carrera (SPC). Estos componentes impactan considerablemente la eficiencia y la efectividad de las prestaciones de servicio que deberían responder a las necesidades reales de la población. En este artículo se analiza la profesionalización, la ética y el principio del mérito dentro de la Administración Pública. Se evidencia la corrupción y la falta de resultados perceptibles que influye en la mejora de la Función Pública desde una perspectiva crítica y constructiva. Al realizar una revisión sistemática de literatura disponible en bases de revistas indexadas, se determinó que la falta de profesionalización, los valores institucionales y la corrupción facilitan el alto grado de desconfianza de la ciudadanía. Este trabajo es de carácter hipotético-deductivo y los valiosos resultados sirven para transformar las prácticas de reclutar, organizar y estructurar los recursos humanos. Finalmente, se presentan el diagrama del efecto Chum como una nueva propuesta y el perfil de los buenos servidores públicos.

Health-related quality of life in midlife and older women with hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos syndrome and hypermobility spectrum disorders
Authors:   , Anderson Linda Kay
Published: March 2024

An understudied area of gerontology is the impact of inherited genetic disorders as individuals age and how such conditions affect health-related quality of life (HRQOL) in older adults. Such is the case with hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos syndrome and hypermobility spectrum disorders (hEDS/HSD). This condition represents a spectrum of heritable connective tissue disorders characterized by joint instability, tissue fragility, chronic pain, and multisystem dysfunction, leading to disability and poor HRQOL. Symptoms are more prevalent and severe in women than men, and early signs and symptoms are subtle and mimic conditions commonly seen in adults. Researchers have yet to identify a hEDS/HSD confirmatory biomarker, so individuals experience long diagnosis delays. Researchers have conducted most hEDS/HSD studies on young adult samples, so little is known about its clinical presentation, illness progression, and HRQOL impact in midlife and older women. This cross-sectional internet survey of women over 40 diagnosed with hEDS/HSD (n = 66, age range 40-87) measured this population's demographic and health history using a custom instrument, symptom characteristics using the Multidimensional Health Assessment Questionnaire, environmental variables using the Craig Hospital Inventory of Environmental Factors, and HRQOL using the Short-Form 36. This study identified numerous comorbidities, extensive diagnosis delays, and lower physical and mental HRQOL than age and sex- matched norms. This research also showed that environmental factors can significantly impact physical and mental HRQOL, a topic not yet explored in hEDS/HSD literature. This study yielded a model based on the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) framework identifying HRQOL barriers and facilitators that extend the knowledge of the natural history and illness trajectory of hEDS/HSD in midlife and older women. These results may lead to earlier diagnosis, more effective treatments, and better physical and mental HRQOL.
Sexual consent in Greece and the United States : a cultural comparison
Authors:   , Luebbering-Jones Shannise Brianne
Published: March 2024

Despite a growing, global social pressure to emphasize the importance of sexual consent, there remains a lack of empirical research into the topic. Though research into sexual consent is an expanding field, there are significant gaps in our knowledge in this important area. Very little work examines the context of sexual consent embedded within cultural factors or compares processes and perspectives on consent between cultures. As a result, there is little insight into how culture influences and shapes consent. This study is an extension of a smaller study that focused on recognizing and understanding the nuances of sexual consent communication and interpretation among young adults in an American college setting. With this extension, interview data was collected from young adults in Greece. Using Constructivist Grounded Theory (CGT) methods, interview data from Greece and the United States were analyzed separately, and as one larger dataset. Theoretical models for each country's data were generated through the constant comparative methods consistent with CGT. Comparisons between codes for each country were also made, resulting in an overarching theoretical model and a rich discussion section examining similarities and differences between and within Greece and the United States. The three main themes that emerged from the iterative comparison of all data were Socially Constructed Expectations, Catalyst to Sexual Activity, and Behavior Throughout Sexual Activity, which are all nested within one another and within consensual sex.
The role of mitochondria in early-onset preeclampsia
Authors:   , Foster Jessica Marie Milano
Published: March 2024

[EMBARGOED UNTIL 12/1/2024] Placental mitochondrial dysfunction may play a role in the etiology of early-onset preeclampsia (EOPE). Mitochondrial function is impaired at term in placentas delivered from EOPE pregnancies, but it is not known whether this dysfunction is present early in gestation. Oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS), which occurs in the mitochondria, is essential for trophoblast function. Understanding mitochondrial dynamics in normal and EOPE cells of early pregnancy is important for assessing the cause of EOPE. Modeling preeclampsia remains difficult due to the nature of the disease and the unique characteristics of the human placenta. Members of the hominoidea superfamily have a villous hemochorial placenta that is different in structure from other therian mammals, including the mouse hemochorial placenta, making this common animal model less ideal for studying this disease. Human placental tissues delivered from pregnancies complicated by preeclampsia are excellent for assessing the damage the disease causes but cannot answer how or when the disease begins. Symptoms of preeclampsia manifest halfway through pregnancy or later, making it currently impossible to identify preeclampsia in human tissues obtained from an early stage of pregnancy. Many animal and cell culture models recapitulate various aspects of preeclampsia, though none can on its own completely capture the complexity of human preeclampsia. It is particularly difficult to uncover the cause of the disease by using models in which the disease is induced in the lab. However, the many ways by which preeclampsia-like features can be induced in a variety of laboratory animals are consistent with the idea that preeclampsia is a multifactorial disease. The recent development of stem cell- based models, organoids, and various coculture systems have brought in vitro systems with human cells ever closer to recapitulating in vivo events. This review will discuss placental development and maturation, mitochondrial function, and approaches to modeling preeclampsia.

A comparison of the McGurk effect for spoken and sung syllables
Authors: Quinto Lena , Forde Thompson William , Russo Frank , E. Trehub Sandra
Published: March 2024

The importance of visual cues in speech perception is illustrated by the McGurk effect, whereby a speaker’s facial movements affect speech perception. The goal of the present study was to evaluate whether the McGurk effect is also observed for sung syllables. Participants heard and saw sung instances of the syllables /ba/ and /ga/ and then judged the syllable they perceived. Audio-visual stimuli were congruent or incongruent (e.g., auditory /ba/ presented with visual /ga/). The stimuli were presented as spoken, sung in an ascending and descending triad (C E G G E C), and sung in an ascending and descending triad that returned to a semitone above the tonic (C E G G E C#). Results revealed no differences in the proportion of fusion responses between spoken and sung conditions confirming that cross-modal phonemic information is integrated similarly in speech and song.
Perception of Emotional Speech by Listeners With Hearing Aids
Authors: Goy Huiwen , Pichora-Fuller M. Kathleen , Singh Gurjit , Russo Frank
Published: March 2024

A talker’s emotional state is one important type of information carried by the speech signal. While the frequency and amplitude compression performed by hearing aids may make speech easier to understand, little is known about how such processing affects users’ perception of emotion in speech. This study investigated how hearing aid use affected the perception of emotion in speech and the recognition of speech spoken with emotion. Listeners were hearing aid users who were tested with and without their aids in separate sessions. They heard sentences spoken by a young female actor portraying different vocal emotions, and were asked to report the keyword and identify the portrayed emotion. The use of hearing aids improved listeners’ word recognition performance from 43% correct (unaided) to 68% correct (aided). In contrast, hearing aids did not improve listeners’ emotion identification (38% unaided, compared to 40% aided). Emotions that were more easily identified were not necessarily the same emotions associated with better word recognition. We conclude that the types of information carried by the speech signal are differentially affected by hearing aids; in this case, hearing aids improved the recognition of what was spoken but not the identification of vocal emotion.
The forgotten role of absorption in music reward
Authors: Cardona Gemma , Ferreri Laura , Lorenzo-Seva Urbano , Russo Frank , Rodríguez-Fornells Antoni
Published: March 2024

Interindividual differences in music-related reward have been characterized as involving five main facets: musical seeking, emotion evocation, mood regulation, social reward, and sensory-motor. An interesting concept related to how humans decode music as a rewarding experience is music transcendence or absorption (i.e., music-driven states of complete immersion, including momentary loss of self-consciousness or even time-space disorientation). Here, we investigated the relation between previously characterized facets of music reward and individual differences in music absorption. A first sample of participants (N = 370) completed both the Barcelona Music Reward Questionnaire (BMRQ) and the Absorption in Music Scale (AIMS). Results showed that both constructs were highly interrelated (r = 0.78, p < 0.001), indicating that higher music reward sensitivity is associated with a greater tendency to music-related absorption states. In addition, four items from the AIMS were identified as suitable to be added to an extended version of the BMRQ (eBMRQ). A second sample (N = 550) completed the eBMRQ for a validation study. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses on the whole sample (N = 920) showed the reliable psychometric properties of the eBMRQ and suggested that taking into account an absorption facet could contribute to a better characterization of individual differences in the sensitivity to experience music-related reward and pleasure.

Published: March 2024

The greying of the world is leading to a rapid acceleration in both the healthcare costs and caregiver burden that are associated with dementia. There is an urgent need to develop new, easily scalable modalities of support. This perspective paper presents the theoretical background, rationale, and development plans for a music-based digital therapeutic to manage the neuropsychiatric symptoms of dementia, particularly agitation and anxiety. We begin by presenting the findings of a survey we conducted with key opinion leaders. The findings highlight the value of a music-based digital therapeutic for treating neuropsychiatric symptoms, particularly agitation and anxiety. We then consider the neural substrates of these neuropsychiatric symptoms before going on to evaluate randomized control trials on the efficacy of music-based interventions in their treatment. Finally, we present our development plans for the adaptation of an existing music-based digital therapeutic that was previously shown to be efficacious in the treatment of adult anxiety symptoms.

This research implemented the Integrated Performance Assessment (IPA) model within the context of vocational English for communication learning. The IPA model, proposed by the American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages (ACTFL), serves as a comprehensive framework aimed at unifying teaching and assessment methodologies to enhance students' speaking abilities. The primary objective of this research is to evaluate the efficacy of the IPA model in improving students' communication skills within a vocational English setting. First-semester students at AKN Blitar serve as the subjects of this research. A mixed-method approach is employed, encompassing both quantitative and qualitative analyses. Pre-test and post-test stages are conducted, with student scores calculated using the Shapiro-Wilk test to ensure the validity of the findings. The results of this research demonstrate a significant improvement in students' communication skills following the implementation of the IPA model. Despite the observed increase in scores between the pre-test and post-test stages, further investigation reveals that the significance value (p) remains above 0.05 (sig. > 0.05), underscoring the need for continued assessment and refinement of the IPA model in vocational English education.

Everyday stress is unpredictable and comes in many different forms. The person is constantly exposed to stress because they cannot handle it. Chronic stress results from this illness. Chronic stress can affect changes in the body's standard mechanisms, including body weight modulated by the circadian cycle. Due to the fact that each person's response to stress is unique, stressful situations might result in two different variations in body weight. The purpose of this study is tobserve the effect of the CUMS on weight changes in Rattus novergicus through the circadian cycle mechanism. 16 chronic stress models of the Rattus norergicus were split into control and treatment groups. The chronic stress was provided using the Chronic Unpredictable Mild Stress (CUMS) approach. The control group did not receive any treatment but was still given maintenance such as providing food, drink and measuring their body weight every day. While the treatment group received CUMs for 20 days. Every morning before the stressor exposure, body weight was recorded. And the measurement of corticosterone levels using the Enzyme-Linked Immunoassay (ELISA) method with the Duplo technique. Before termination, blood is taken at the heart. Corticosterone levels varied across the groups (p = 0.032). The study's changes in body weight (p = 0.00) revealed a difference between the control and treatment groups, with the treatment group's weight being -11.15 ± 7.91. Chronic stress can alter how the body normally functions, mainly how the circadian cycle regulates body weight. Since each person's response to stress is unique, stressful situations might result in two different variations in body weight.

Sosyal medyada yer alan bireysel söylemler ve tutumlar, sahip oldukları mekânsal-zamansal bilgilerle birlikte seçim coğrafyası için kullanıldığında seçmen davranışları ve oy tercihleri hakkında önemli ipuçları sağlayabilmektedir. Sosyal medya verilerini kullanan seçim odaklı farklı çalışmalar olsa da bu çalışmalar oyların ardındaki nedenleri mekânsal olarak anlamaktan uzak kalmıştır. Bu araştırma, seçim coğrafyası alanı için yeni sayılabilecek veri ve yöntemleri kullanarak seçmen davranışı ve oy vermedeki farklılıkları anlamayı, oy verme üzerindeki bağlamsal etkileri ortaya çıkarmayı amaçlamaktadır. Araştırmada X (Twitter) üzerinde Yenimahalle (Türkiye) ilçesinden paylaşılan seçim odaklı tweetleri elde ediyor, duygu durumlarını belirliyor, tweetlerdeki baskın konuları tespit ediyor ve adayların X (Twitter) üzerindeki popülerlik oranları ile gerçek oy oranları arasındaki ilişkiyi ortaya koyuyoruz. Sonuç olarak, X (Twitter) üzerinde kullanıcılar tarafından oluşturulan mekân-zamansal veriler, seçmen davranışı/katılımı ve oy vermedeki farklılıkları anlamanın yanı sıra oy verme üzerindeki bağlam etkilerinin ortaya çıkarılmasında önemli bir yer tutmaktadır.

Published: March 2024

O presente artigo objetiva expor a proposta intitulada "Trilha dos GEOSaberes" construí­da pelo Subprojeto de Geografia da UNESPAR – Campus de União da Vitória e que consiste em uma discussão acerca da Educação Ambiental e na proposição de uma série de trabalhos teóricos e práticos acerca destas temáticas. Justificamos esta elaboração na necessidade de se discutir a Educação Ambiental em todos os ní­veis e modalidades de ensino, sobretudo, nos cursos de Licenciatura que objetivam formar educadores. Neste sentido, propomos uma discussão teórica pautada em uma análise da legislação e das concepções teóricas associadas a uma proposição prática construí­da pelos bolsistas. Os nove pontos que compõe a Trilha dos GEOSaberes vão desde o surgimento do universo até questões contemporâneas do povo brasileiro e combinam uma abordagem conceitual centrada em autores clássicos da Geografia com uma proposição lúdica para dinamizar o aprendizado.
