AGSM Proficiency and Depression Are Associated With Success of High-G Training in Trainee Pilots
Authors: Yun Chul , Oh Sohyun , Shin Young Ho
Published: June 2019

INTRODUCTION: High-gravity (G) training is used to educate trainee pilots about anti-G straining maneuvers (AGSM) in an environment similar to that of a real fighter aircraft, and to enhance their G tolerance. The success or failure of high-G training could be multifactorial,
but most previous studies have only focused on the effect of pilots’ physical condition.METHODS: A total of 138 male trainee pilots participated in this study. All trainee pilots had received AGSM training from experienced instructors and then underwent centrifuge high-G training.
Participants completed questionnaire surveys about body size, lifestyle, self-reported AGSM proficiency, resilience (Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale, CD-RISC), and depression level (Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale, CES-D).RESULTS: Of the 138 subjects, 100 (72.5%)
successfully completed high-G training without experiencing G-induced loss of consciousness (G-LOC) within two trials; these were allocated to the success group. The remaining 38 (27.5%) subjects who completed the training after three or more attempts, or who failed to complete the training
at all, were allocated to the failure group. Multivariate analyses revealed that the success of centrifuge training was positively associated with age and self-reported AGSM proficiency, and negatively associated with depression level.DISCUSSION: The success of high-G training was
significantly associated with self-reported AGSM proficiency and depression level. Instructors should emphasize the importance of AGSM proficiency and offer practice-based learning to trainee pilots. In addition, they should pay attention to not only trainee pilots’ physical condition,
but also their psychological status.Yun C, Oh S, Shin YH. AGSM proficiency and depression are associated with success of high-G training in trainee pilots. Aerosp Med Hum Perform. 2019; 90(7):613–617.

Published: June 2019

BACKGROUND: Work ability is an important component of occupational health assessments and reflects how a persons' physical and mental health affect their ability to perform their job. However, little is known about factors relating to the work ability status of flight attendants.
The aim of this study was to investigate the physical, mental, and work-related factors that affect flight attendants’ work ability.METHODS: A questionnaire-based cross-sectional study and simple random sampling was conducted with participants employed at a Taiwan-based
airline for longer than 1 yr. Analysis of variance and Pearson correlation tests were carried out to analyze work ability according to the flight attendants’ social demographics, physical and mental health, and work-related factors. Multiple regression analysis was used to predict the
flight attendants’ work abilities.RESULTS: A total of 472 flight attendants were recruited and the response rate was 78.67%. The work ability of the flight attendants ranged from ‘moderate’ to ‘excellent’ (WAI score, 34.1 ± 1.8 to 45.1 ±
1.5). In a regression analysis, work ability was positively associated with gender, age, and good eating habits; in contrast, insomnia and work-related burnout were negatively associated with work ability (R2 = 32.4%).DISCUSSION: Insomnia, work-related burnout, and eating
habits had a significant impact on flight attendants’ work abilities. Hence, it is important to address insomnia and high workloads and maintain a healthy lifestyle in the workplace.Hu C-J, Hong R-M, Yeh G-L, Hsieh I-C. Insomnia, work-related burnout, and eating habits affecting

Leonid Biletskyi as Historian of Ukrainian Literature
Authors: Khorob Stepan
Published: June 2019

The paper deals with historical and literary concepts in the works of the Ukrainian scholar from diaspora Leonid Biletskyi based on the extensive material of his studies on the Ukrainian literature. Using philological, comparative historical and genetic methods the author of the paper analyzes these concepts in the light of Biletskyi’s methodology of studying the ideological and aesthetic phenomena of a national literature that includes revealing characteristic features, speciﬁ c principles and views on the existence and development of the literary process. This method allows outlining speciﬁ city of Leonid Biletskyi as a historian of the national literature, noticeable in his textbook “The History of Ukrainian Literature”, being a kind of encyclopedia of the national cultural and historical spirituality of Ukrainians, as well as in a series of the ‘portrait stories’ presenting many writers of the old, new and contemporary literature. The paper reveals and systematizes historical and literary approaches of the scholar to studying literary and artistic phenomena, processes and certain works. The literary critic evaluated every ideological and aesthetic phenomenon of the national literature based on the general literary criteria. His analysis started from the form (genre, style, stylistics), as, according to the researcher, the form renders the development of the literary process, in which only the core of the author’s artistic thinking – a man and his being – remains unchanged. At the same time Leonid Biletskyi grounded his estimation of the writer’s works and creativity not only on the development of the national literature, but also on the changes in social consciousness of the time. Thus, as a historian of literature, he managed to  combine in his scholarly thinking the subjectivity and objective development of the literary process. The historical concepts of Leonid Biletskyi haven’t been studied suﬃ ciently yet. The present paper oﬀ ers the ﬁ rst review and systematization of them and aims at revealing the special views of the emigration scholar on the development of the Ukrainian literature.

The AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is an energy sensing kinase that is activated by a drop in cellular ATP levels. Although several studies have addressed the role of the AMPKα1 subunit in monocytes and macrophages, little is known about the α2 subunit. The aim of this study was to assess the consequences of AMPKα2 deletion on protein expression in monocytes/macrophages, as well as on atherogenesis. A proteomics approach was applied to bone marrow derived monocytes from wild-type mice versus mice specifically lacking AMPKα2 in myeloid cells (AMPKα2∆MC mice). This revealed differentially expressed proteins, including methyltransferases. Indeed, AMPKα2 deletion in macrophages increased the ratio of S-adenosyl methionine to S-adenosyl homocysteine and increased global DNA cytosine methylation. Also, methylation of the vascular endothelial growth factor and matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP9) genes was increased in macrophages from AMPKα2∆MC mice, and correlated with their decreased expression. To link these findings with an in vivo phenotype, AMPKα2∆MC mice were crossed onto the ApoE-/- background and fed a western diet. ApoExAMPKα2∆MC mice developed smaller atherosclerotic plaques than their ApoExα2fl/fl littermates, that contained fewer macrophages and less MMP9 than plaques from ApoExα2fl/fl littermates. These results indicate that the AMPKα2 subunit in myeloid cells influences DNA methylation and thus protein expression and contributes to the development of atherosclerotic plaques.
Cyanate Assimilation by the Alkaliphilic Cyanide-Degrading Bacterium Pseudomonas pseudoalcaligenes CECT5344: Mutational Analysis of the cyn Gene Cluster
Authors: Sáez Lara Paloma , Cabello Purificación , Ibáñez María Isabel , Luque-Almagro Víctor Manuel , Roldán María Dolores , Moreno-Vivián Conrado
Published: June 2019

The alkaliphilic bacterium Pseudomonas pseudoalcaligenes CECT5344 can grow with cyanate, cyanide, or cyanide-containing industrial residues as the sole nitrogen source, but the assimilation of cyanide and cyanate takes place through independent pathways. Therefore, cyanide degradation involves a chemical reaction between cyanide and oxaloacetate to form a nitrile that is hydrolyzed to ammonium by the nitrilase NitC, whereas cyanate assimilation requires a cyanase that catalyzes cyanate decomposition to ammonium and carbon dioxide. The P. pseudoalcaligenes CECT5344 cynFABDS gene cluster codes for the putative transcriptional regulator CynF, the ABC-type cyanate transporter CynABD, and the cyanase CynS. In this study, transcriptional analysis revealed that the structural cynABDS genes constitute a single transcriptional unit, which was induced by cyanate and repressed by ammonium. Mutational characterization of the cyn genes indicated that CynF was essential for cynABDS gene expression and that nitrate/nitrite transporters may be involved in cyanate uptake, in addition to the CynABD transport system. Biodegradation of hazardous jewelry wastewater containing high amounts of cyanide and metals was achieved in a batch reactor operating at an alkaline pH after chemical treatment with hydrogen peroxide to oxidize cyanide to cyanate.

Authors: Clemons Bankston Page , Al-Horani Rami A.
Published: June 2019

This review provides details about three small molecules that were recently approved by the FDA for the treatment of thrombocytopenia. The new treatments include lusutrombopag, avatrombopag, and fostamatinib. The first two drugs are orally active thrombopoietin receptor (TPO-R) agonists which are FDA-approved for the treatment of thrombocytopenia in adult patients with chronic liver disease who are scheduled to undergo a procedure. Fostamatinib is orally active prodrug that, after activation, becomes spleen tyrosine kinase (SYK) inhibitor. Fostamatinib is currently used to treat chronic and refractory immune thrombocytopenia in patients who have had insufficient response to previous treatment. Chemical structures, available dosage forms, recommended dosing, pharmacokinetics, results of toxicity studies in animals, most frequent adverse effects, significant outcomes of the corresponding clinical trials, and their use in specific patient populations are thoroughly described. Described also is a comparative summary of the different aspects of five currently available therapies targeting TPO-R or SYK for the treatment of thrombocytopenia.
Molecular Characterization of Ca2+/Calmodulin-Dependent Protein Kinase II Isoforms in Three Rice Planthoppers—Nilaparvata lugens, Laodelphax striatellus, and Sogatella furcifera

Published: June 2019

This study reports the identification of splice variants for the calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII) gene from Nilaparvata lugens, Laodelphax striatellus, and Sogatella furcifera. CaMKII is a multifunctional serine/threonine protein kinase that transduces Ca2+ signals in cells to control a range of cellular processes in the nervous system and muscular tissue. Sequence analysis showed that CaMKII was 99.0% identical at the amino acid level among three rice planthoppers, with the exception of a variable region located in the association domain. Four kinds of 20–81 amino acid “inserts” were found in the variable region. The phylogenetic tree of the deduced amino acid sequences showed that the NlCaMKII isoforms were more closely related to the LsCaMKII isoforms and were slightly distinct from SfCaMKII. CaMKII-E was the dominant type among the five main isoforms. CaMKII genes were constitutively expressed in various nymphal and adult stages and in tested tissues with the predominant transcription occurring in the head. There was no major tissue specificity of isoform expression, but the expression pattern and relative abundance of isoforms varied when compared with the RT-PCR between tissues. In addition, RNAi in N. lugens with dsRNA at a concentration of 200 ng nymph−1 induced a mortality of 77.7% on the 10th day and a reduction in the mRNA expression level of 67.2%. Unlike the holometabolous insect Helicoverpa armigera, the knockdown of NlCaMKII did not suppress the expression of 20E response genes, such as ECR, USP1, and HR3, in N. lugens. These results indicate that the role of CaMKII in hemimetabolous insects may be different from that in holometabolous insects.

Reptiles are a rare model object for space research. However, some reptile species demonstrate effective adaptation to spaceflight conditions. The main scope of this review is a comparative analysis of reptile experimental exposure in weightlessness, demonstrating the advantages and shortcomings of this model. The description of the known reptile experiments using turtles and geckos in the space and parabolic flight experiments is provided. Behavior, skeletal bones (morphology, histology, and X-ray microtomography), internal organs, and the nervous system (morphology, histology, and immunohistochemistry) are studied in the spaceflight experiments to date, while molecular and physiological results are restricted. Therefore, the results are discussed in the scope of molecular data collected from mammalian (mainly rodents) specimens and cell cultures in the parabolic and orbital flights and simulated microgravity. The published data are compared with the results of the gecko model studies after the 12–44.5-day spaceflights with special reference to the unique peculiarities of the gecko model for the orbital experiments. The complex study of thick-toed geckos after three spaceflights, in which all geckos survived and demonstrated effective adaptation to spaceflight conditions, was performed. However, future investigations are needed to study molecular mechanisms of gecko adaptation in space.

The physiological decline of lactase production in adulthood, in some individuals, is responsible for the so-called “Lactose Intolerance.” This clinical syndrome presents with gastrointestinal and non-gastrointestinal symptoms following the consumption of dairy containing food. Lactose intolerance can be evaluated by means of the Lactose Breath Test (phenotype) and/or genetic evaluation of lactase-gene polymorphism (genotype). A comparison of the two tests was carried out in a large number of symptomatic adult subjects, which are selected and not representative of the general population. Congruency was as high as 88.6%. Among lactase non-persistent (genotype C/C), 14 subjects showed a negative Lactose Breath Test (LBT), possibly due to young age. Among lactase-persistent (genotype C/T), four subjects showed a positive LBT, which helps to diagnose secondary lactose intolerance. Symptoms, both gastrointestinal and extra-gastrointestinal, were reported by 90% of patients during the breath test. Clinical use of both tests in the same patients could be taken into consideration as a sharp diagnostic tool. We suggest considering the use of the genetic test after LBT administration, when secondary hypolactasia is suspected, for completion of diagnostic procedures.

Published: June 2019

With over 6000 rivers and 5358 lakes, surface water is one of the most important resources in Nepal. However, the quantity and quality of Nepal’s rivers and lakes are decreasing due to human activities and climate change. Despite the advancement of remote sensing technology and the availability of open access data and tools, the monitoring and surface water extraction works has not been carried out in Nepal. Single or multiple water index methods have been applied in the extraction of surface water with satisfactory results. Extending our previous study, the authors evaluated six different machine learning algorithms: Naive Bayes (NB), recursive partitioning and regression trees (RPART), neural networks (NNET), support vector machines (SVM), random forest (RF), and gradient boosted machines (GBM) to extract surface water in Nepal. With three secondary bands, slope, NDVI and NDWI, the algorithms were evaluated for performance with the addition of extra information. As a result, all the applied machine learning algorithms, except NB and RPART, showed good performance. RF showed overall accuracy (OA) and kappa coefficient (Kappa) of 1 for the all the multiband data with the reference dataset, followed by GBM, NNET, and SVM in metrics. The performances were better in the hilly regions and flat lands, but not well in the Himalayas with ice, snow and shadows, and the addition of slope and NDWI showed improvement in the results. Adding single secondary bands is better than adding multiple in most algorithms except NNET. From current and previous studies, it is recommended to separate any study area with and without snow or low and high elevation, then apply machine learning algorithms in original Landsat data or with the addition of slopes or NDWI for better performance.
An Optimized Load Balance Solution for Multi-homed Host in Heterogeneous Wireless Networks

Published: June 2019

The imminent wireless technologies are demanding fusion of several networks with diverse technologies. A convenient user device for such an environment is the multihomed host, which is capable of making use of simultaneous multiple connections of heterogeneous networks and smartly distributing/receiving data among them. The aim of this work is to develop a mechanism for assessing the multihoming concept and to propose a system model for increasing its applicability. The proposed model provided a novel user-centric scheme for multihoming for multi-radio access technologies (multi-RAT). It is considered an evolution of traffic offloading for gaining more capacity, higher data rates, and real-time services. This work assumes data classifications, evaluates and ranks the available connections, and utilizes the application data in an unequal load balance scheme. This is achieved by analyzing the performance of three of the most widely used alternative-choice for multiple attributes decision making (MADM) methods. The analytical hierarchy process (AHP), along with a utility equation, is applied to the system model for unequal load balance solution. The proposed model is targeting an energy efficient mechanism which satisfies application needs. Moreover, it reveals an efficient transmission mechanism for a better quality of service, traffic management, and availability solutions. The simulation results show that the proposed system surpassed its former counterparts.

Published: June 2019

The Integrated Satellite-Terrestrial Networks (ISTNs) with Software-Defined Networking (SDN) incorporated have become the emerging architecture and have attracted considerable attention recently. Therein, the joint gateway and controller placement problem is of fundamental significance for designing ISTNs with flexible and efficient management capabilities. Hence, how to achieve network reliability maximization with low network latency in the joint placement problem is worthy of in-depth study. In this paper, a network partition algorithm, Simulated Annealing Partition-based K-means (SAPKM), is proposed and analyzed for further ameliorating the problem. Experiments are performed on real network topologies to validate the effectiveness of our approach for the joint placement problem. Compared with the state-of-the-art existing works, numerical results show that SAPKM outperforms when deploying four or more controllers in terms of network reliability performance, network latency, and inter-plane latency with less than 2 ms to converge.

Differentiation can arise in such issues as locational and cultural changes, employment, workforce, urban management and distribution of income under the influence of massive migrations in countries letting in migrations. Therefore, immigrants can easily be the subject of discrimination on the grounds that they give harm to the welfare of a country. The basic factor in immigrants’ “isolation” with prejudice and discrimination is the thought that they grasp the job possibilities of native population and that they cause unemployment.  This study was conducted with the participation of immigrants who were actively available in business life at different times in the period between 2015 and 2018.  The interviewees’ work like ranged from paper collecting to farming work and service sector. The group interviewed was composed of men and women between 18 and 55 years old. The whole group came to Turkey due to the civil war in their country. The research findings were obtained through face-to-face interviews with the immigrants and then they were interpreted.

Published: June 2019

The US-China trade war has been considered one of the urgent issues in today’s international trade. In fact, this is a trade war where top two largest world economies participate.  In this paper, we have made an attempt to describe and explain the motives behind this trade war along with the potential threats, causes and effects for the world economy. Comparative macroeconomic analysis of the involved countries has been also conducted. Possible retaliation of China and other countries to the US’ increasing in tariffs on imported goods, protectionism and deficit issues in the US are discussed in the first part of the paper. The authors focus on the potential threats and effects that this trade war may have on the world economy from the political economy point of view. Authors’ vision on the future prospects of the current situation is also presented.
Comparative feeding behaviour of native and introduced terrestrial snails tracks their ecological impacts

Published: June 2019

A developing body of theory and empirical evidence suggest that feeding behaviour as measured by the functional response (FR) can assist researchers in assessing the relative potential, ecological impacts and competitive abilities of native and introduced species. Here, we explored the FRs of two land snails that occur in south-western Ontario, one native (Mesodonthyroidus) and one non-indigenous (Cepaeanemoralis) to Canada. The non-indigenous species appears to have low ecological impact and inferior competitive abilities. Consistent with theory, while both species conformed to Type II functional responses, the native species had a significantly higher attack rate (5.30 vs 0.41, respectively) and slightly lower handling time (0.020 vs 0.023), and hence a higher maximum feeding rate (50.0 vs 43.5). The non-indigenous species exhibited a significantly longer time to contact for a variety of food types, and appeared less discriminating of paper that was offered as a non-food type. The non-indigenous species also ate significantly less food when in mixed species trials with the native snail. These feeding patterns match the known low ecological impact of the introduced snail and are consistent with the view that it is an inferior competitor relative to the native species. However, field experimentation is required to clarify whether the largely microallopatric distributions of the two species in south-western Ontario reflect competitive dominance by the native species or other factors such as habitat preference, feeding preferences or predator avoidance. The relative patterns of feeding behaviour and ecological impact are, however, fully in line with recent functional response theory and application.

La place de la famille en supervision d’équipe ou en analyse des pratiques professionnelles
Authors: Mellier Denis
Published: June 2019

La problématique familiale peut être un risque ou une possibilité de travail en supervision d’équipe ou en analyse de la pratique. L’auteur s’appuie sur sa pratique clinique groupale. Il indique d’abord le risque du « familialisme » qui consiste à réduire l’institution à une famille ou à interpréter sans écart le problème des professionnels selon leur histoire personnelle. Il montre au contraire l’importance de considérer la place des familles des personnes accueillies dans l’institution car elles font partie des alliances et des organisateurs institutionnels. Après avoir indiqué comment ces deux dispositifs d’analyse sont centrés sur la professionnalité à l’instar d’un groupe Balint, il montre comment l’attention et les associations de points de vue des participants permettent de transformer le « négatif » de la problématique familiale des accueillis lors de la « construction de cas ».
Paroles d’hommes dans la famille d’accueil : reconnaître leur place et penser leur spécificité
Authors: Boyer Ariane , Noël Raphaële
Published: June 2019

Rares sont les études qui s’intéressent aux hommes dans la famille d’accueil. Les échantillons des recherches sont la plupart du temps composés presque exclusivement de femmes. À partir des résultats d’une recherche qualitative sur l’expérience de familles d’accueil québécoises et dans un cadre de référence psychodynamique, l’objectif du présent article est de décrire les enjeux spécifiques à l’expérience et au vécu des hommes dans un contexte d’accueil familial. Les résultats montrent, d’une part, que les hommes rencontrés portent des valeurs et un héritage familial traditionnels teintés par une vision collectiviste et altruiste. D’autre part, ces hommes présentent une vision de leur rôle en complémentarité avec celui de leur conjointe, notamment à l’égard des relations avec l’institution. Pourtant, ils ne profitent pas de l’espace de parole qui leur a été proposé de la même façon que les femmes rencontrées. Les résultats seront discutés sous l’angle d’une réflexion quant à l’intégration des hommes dans les études sur le placement et sur le type d’accompagnement à privilégier auprès de ceux-ci.
Ethnographier un projet de recherche nord-sud entre différences épistémologiques, enjeux éthiques et rapports de pouvoir

Cet article porte sur la mise en pratique de l’éthique institutionnelle telle qu’elle est appréhendée dans le cadre d’un projet de recherche en partenariat Nord-Sud portant sur la diversité des mémoires dans des sociétés ayant vécu des conflits civils. À partir d’une recherche ethnographique en cours sur les pratiques des chercheurs et chercheuses (en Europe et dans trois pays du Sud global), j’entends examiner les normes et les dispositifs qui encadrent l’éthique de la recherche ainsi que leurs manifestations concrètes, et leurs effets parfois contradictoires, sur la construction du savoir. J’aborderai également les liens entre ce dispositif et les politiques de la recherche et son impact sur les rapports entre les membres des équipes étudiées. Envisagée en termes de sécurité dans la charte scientifique du projet, l’éthique fera l’objet d’un questionnement sur la construction des risques. Enfin, j’analyserai mon propre positionnement en tant que membre du projet par rapport aux différents obstacles disciplinaires et méthodologiques générés au cours de l’enquête.

Published: June 2019

Ce texte est une réponse à l’article de Daniel Garber. Il s’agit de discuter l’idée que la dynamique est un projet parallèle et incompatible avec le projet monadologique. Pour critiquer cette position, je présente l’importance de la conceptualisation de l’action dans la Dynamica de potentia (1690) et ses implications pour la métaphysique monadologique elle-même.
Un poème typo-litho-graphique : Mallarmé, Redon, Un coup de dés
Authors: Illouz Jean-Nicolas
Published: June 2019

« Je suis pour – aucune illustration », écrit Mallarmé, dans une formule qui écarte l’illustration en même temps qu’elle l’annexe au livre. L’article examine cette « fugue » entre images et texte dans le cas de l’édition Ambroise Vollard – demeurée édition fantôme – du poème Un coup de dés « illustré » par Redon : aux blancs de la typographie devaient faire écho les noirs des lithographies ; à la « mobilité de l’écrit » que catalyse le dépliement du volume devaient répondre les formes en formation que Redon puise aux sources de l’Inconscient ; en sorte que l’abstraction du poème se serait vue reconduite à sa source figurale enfouie : là où, dans le transfert d’art, se découvre, « muet », un enfant mystérieux, à jamais « tu ». Il en résulte une nouvelle « partition » entre les arts, réunis et séparés à la fois, sous l’égide de la Poésie, dans le jeu du Livre.
L’hymen des arts dans le livre Art nouveau : amour de loin et union libre
Authors: Barde Cyril
Published: June 2019

En 1890, Maurice Denis appelait de ses vœux une décoration du livre « sans servitude du texte » consistant en « une broderie d’arabesques sur les pages, un accompagnement de lignes expressives ». L’ornementation linéaire qui investit le livre à la fin du siècle semble mettre en œuvre ce programme. Le livre devient alors un lieu où s’expérimentent de nouveaux nouages entre les arts et où s’inventent de nouveaux rapports entre lisible et visible. De l’amour de loin mis en abyme par l’ornementation de Mucha pour  Ilsée, princesse de Tripoli  à l’union libre du vers libre et de l’arabesque dans les éditions Deman en passant par le corps à corps de la reliure nancéienne, l’Art nouveau nous incite à filer la métaphore de l’hymen des arts effectué en mineur dans le livre considéré lui-même comme objet d’art.
Les Nouveaux Poèmes de Rilke : effleurer la sculpture de Rodin
Authors: Gheerardyn Claire
Published: June 2019

Les études portant sur les relations entre les arts négligent le plus souvent la sculpture. Cet article examine l’« hymen » de la poésie et de la sculpture à travers le cas de Rilke qui, au contact de Rodin, a tenté de profondément transformer son œuvre. Tout en proclamant l’hétérogénéité de la sculpture et de la poésie, Rilke, dans un geste solennel, dédie au sculpteur ses Nouveaux Poèmes [ II ] ( Der neuen Gedichte anderer Teil , 1908). Il propose de prendre Rodin comme « immense exemple », alors même que le recueil ne décrit jamais les œuvres du sculpteur, mais les effleure de loin. Prendre Rodin pour modèle, c’est peut-être tenter de créer à la manière du sculpteur, mais c’est aussi inviter à lire comme Rodin lit les Fleurs du mal , en sculpteur. Les mains du lecteur qui touchent le poème pour explorer ses reliefs, continuent alors de créer le texte.

Published: June 2019

AbstractBased on a data management method that utilizes unified coding and allocation numbers, this paper proposes an online, direct reporting, full-process management method, from ownership information generation to allocation number printing. In the unified coding and allocation,
our method includes mainly top-level nodes (national nodes), secondary nodes (provincial and municipal nodes), and base-level nodes (county-level nodes) of multiple hierarchical structures with upper and lower affiliation. Data audit and registration approval authority is implemented through
different levels of branch nodes, which focuses on the development and optimization of coding and allocation methods. It also uses the national sea area dynamic monitoring and management system (NSADMMS) as a platform to achieve the application of coding and allocation methods. After 4 years
of operation, the practicality of the research content is verified. At the same time, the sea space resource utilization data managed by this method show that there is a larger fluctuation of the sea area type in the industry, and open sea use is dominant in the sea use area.
Fish Tracking Based on Improved TLD Algorithm in Real-World Underwater Environment

Published: June 2019

AbstractFish tracking in the natural underwater environment is of great value for many applications, such as fish behavior analysis and the estimation of fish population density. Due to the variety of swimming postures, uneven illumination, and complicated background in the
real-world underwater environment, most existing object tracking algorithms are not ideal for fish tracking. In this paper, a tracking algorithm based on TLD (Tracking-Learning-Detection) is proposed, in which the shape and color features of fish are fully utilized to achieve accurate and
rapid tracking. The proposed algorithm mainly focuses on the tracking module and detection module in the TLD framework. In the tracking module, a scale adaptive mean-shift algorithm is employed to deal with the variety of swimming postures and the uneven illumination by estimating the scale
and using the color histogram of the background and target area. In the detection module, the Hu invariant moment of fish, which encodes the shape information, is used to detect the target quickly. The experiment results show that the proposed algorithm is effective and accurate for fish tracking
in the real-world underwater environment.
Competitive Readiness: Developmental Considerations to Promote Positive Youth Development in Competitive Activities
Authors: Kochanek Jillian , Matthews Alysha , Wright Emily , DiSanti Justin , Neff Michelle , Erickson Karl
Published: June 2019

Competitive experiences have the potential to empower youth. Understanding the conditions under which young people can grow through competition is necessary to identify how competitive experiences can optimally support youth as engaged participants and people. This paper serves as a novel integration of previous research aimed toward practitioners. The purpose of this paper is to provide adult (and youth) leaders with empirically-based, practically meaningful guidance to integrate practices that support competitive readiness for youth development. To clarify the youth competitive readiness debate, this paper adopts a process-oriented, developmental perspective. We first define and provide background on youth development. Second, we put forth guiding postulates and their application to practice for organized competitive experiences for positive youth development promotion. We argue that youth are “ready” to compete not just when they can survive competitive experiences, but thrive through them. Interactions between individual, contextual, and developmental factors over time influence fluctuations in a young person’s state of competitive readiness. In this way, competitive readiness is an ongoing process that encompasses the individual needs of the child in relation to the environment.
Hvordan påvirker barns deltakelse foreldremekling? Barns deltakelse som mål og middel
Authors: Thørnblad Renee , Strandbu Astrid , Salamonsen Anita
Published: June 2019

Barn deltar i økende grad i familievernkontorenes obligatoriske foreldremekling ved samlivsbrudd. Det er i dag en fagpolitisk målsetting i Norge at dette skal bli regelen snarere enn unntaket. På denne måten skal barns rett til å bli hørt innfris. I denne artikkelen undersøkes mekleres erfaringer fra meklingsprosesser der barn har deltatt. Spørsmålet som stilles er: Hva gjør barns deltakelse med meklingen? Oppmerksomheten er rettet mot betydningen av barns deltakelse for meklingsprosessen, aktørenes roller og meklingens tema. Artikkelen bygger på kvalitative intervju med meklere med erfaring fra bruk av Barn i mekling-modellen (BIM). Intervjuene er analysert ved hjelp av kvalitativ innholdsanalyse. Resultatene viser at meklerne tillegger barns deltakelse stor betydning for ulike sider ved foreldremeklingen, så som meklernes faglige tilnærming, tematikk i meklingen og fokus på foreldreskap.

How does children’s participation affect child custody mediation? Children’s participation as goals and means
In Norway, family mediation is mandatory for all separating parents with children under the age of 16. It is a public policy that all children should have the opportunity to participate in mediation processes, and the number of children participating is currently increasing. In this way children’s legal right to be heard is met. This article examines the mediators’ experiences from mediation processes in which children have participated. The research question is: What does children’s participation do to mediation? The results build on qualitative interviews with mediators with experience from using the Children in Mediation Model (BIM). Our attention is on the impact of children’s participation in the mediation process, for the roles of the actors and the themes focused in mediation. The results show that the mediators see children’s participation as important in different aspects of family mediation, such as the mediators’ choice of professional approach, the themes addressed in mediation and the parents’ focus on parenting after divorce.
Personal Values and Value Priorities of Undergraduate Business Students
Authors: Lan George ,   Philosophy Documentation Center
Published: June 2019

The Schwartz Values Survey (SVS), developed by Shalom Schwartz, was used to explore the values and value priorities of undergraduate business students in a mid-sized Canadian university. These business students considered family security as their top individual value and ranked successful, healthy, and enjoying life among their top ten individual values. On the other hand, detachment, accepting my portion in life and social power were least valued. They regarded Benevolence and Achievement as their top two value types (cluster of related values), and ranked the higher order meta-value Self-Transcendence first followed by Openness to Change. The accounting and finance majors considered Hedonism as their top priority while the other business majors valued Benevolence most highly; however, overall, there were more similarities than differences between these two groups. When compared with the males, females valued the meta-value Self-Transcendence significantly more and exhibited values and value systems that have more of a social focus and less of a personal focus. First-year and fourth-year business students ranked the meta-values in the same order; however, Self-Transcendence was rated as significantly more important to the students in their first year compared to those in their fourth year.

Published: June 2019

Las nuevas tecnologías han calado muy profundamente en Educación. Hemos analizado las percepciones de estudiantes y docentes sobre el uso de la tablet como herramienta para enseñar ciencias, en un centro de ESO./Bachillerato donde cada estudiante dispone de un iPad. Estudiantes y docentes consideran que el mayor rendimiento del iPad se obtiene en asignaturas relacionadas con las ciencias de la vida. Sin embargo, la mayoría de los docentes reconoce que no aprovecha todos los recursos que ofrece el iPad. Discutimos cómo la tecnología no garantiza una mejora en la calidad de la educación científica si no va acompañada de una adecuada formación del profesorado y de unas estrategias didácticas que faciliten su correcta implementación en las aulas
