Authors: Firsov K. V. , Kotov A. S.
Published: December 2019

Objective: to investigate the features of the course and long-term outcome of catastrophic epilepsies. Patients and methods. A total of 130 patients (62 (47.7%) men and 68 (52.3%) women) aged 21 to 78 years were examined. The follow-up was 1 year to 14 years. The inclusion criteria for the investigation were above 18 years of age; severe epilepsy with daily seizures considered as catastrophic epilepsy. The exclusion criteria were a history of nonepileptic seizures of any etiology, as well as noncompliance. The examination included history data collection; seizure diary analysis; clinical and neurological examination; routine EEG and/or EEG-video monitoring; brain magnetic resonance imaging; and laboratory tests. Results and discussion. The onset of epilepsy immediately with catastrophic seizures was observed in 28 (21.5%) patients; this onset was most frequently seen in 18 of the 28 children. At the same time, catastrophic seizures did not appear immediately, but it took some time for them to occur after the onset of active epilepsy in 102 (78.5%) patients. Moreover, the onset of catastrophic seizures could not be associated with any external influences or errors in 58 (56.9%) of these patients taking the drugs. Transition to catastrophic epilepsy could occur both abruptly in 11 (10.8%) patients and gradually in 91 (89.2%). After treatment correction, 16.8% of patients achieved remission at the time of study completion; the frequency of seizures decreased by 50% or more in 27.1% of cases; the effect was absent in 56.1%. Conclusion. Based on the findings, it can be concluded that in catastrophic epilepsy, the probability exists for spontaneous occurrence and remission of destructive seizures, frequently regardless of the therapy. The onset of the disease and that of catastrophic seizures can be spread in time. The efficiency of treatment remains low in patients with catastrophic epilepsies.
IS IT POSSIBLE TO ASSESS PERSONALITY TRAITS BY MEANS OF LÜSCHER TEST?
Authors: Sugonyaev K V
Published: December 2019

Despite 70-year history of 8-color version of the Lüscher Test there are surprisingly few empirical data so far confirming its reliability and validity. The current study aimed to fill this gap. Construct validity of popular scores of the test (ranks of color’s choices and some derivative indexes) was investigated by means of their comparison with supposedly relevant personality trait scores measured by some questionnaires. In five student’s and three military samples (Ntotal = 6643) we could not reveal any consistent evidence of a link between color preferences and the personality traits. Temporary stability of Lüscher Test scores was investigated in four samples by a total number of 1067 subjects. Stability estimates at different modes of the test administration are amounted to r = 0,319–0,473, that is quite insufficient for reliable assessment of personality traits. The results obtained are considered as evidence of uselessness of the Lüscher Test application in high stake context. Also our data call into question a validity of popular systems of interpretations of color preferences, at least in terms of personality traits.
FACTORS DETERMINING SUCCESSFUL NEUROBIOFEEDBACK IN ATHLETES
Authors: Cherapkina L P
Published: December 2019

Alpha-stimulating neurobiofeedback is actively introduced into sports training. Successful training contributes to optimal functioning and sports performance enhancement. However, not all athletes are able to achieve their goals. The main problem is the absence of the data explaining the effect of sports qualification, specialization, and gender on successful neurobiofeedback. Aim. The article deals with establishing the correlation between sports qualification, specialization (depending on movement character), gender, and successful neurobiofeedback. Materials and methods. 216 athletes (124 males and 92 females) participated in a 15-day neurobiofeedback course with the Boslab-alpha equipment (Russia). The average age of participants is 19 ± 0.1 years. All participants have 5 or more years of sports experience. All athletes provided their written informed consent for participation in the study. The 25–30-minute sessions of neurobiofeedback were conducted once per day. The electrodes were set up in the frontal and parietal area in a bipolar mode according to the 10–20 international system (F1 and P3). The increase in the spectrum power of alpha range by no less than 10 % compared to the previous session was considered as successful neurobiofeedback. We calculated the percentage of successful and unsuccessful training sessions for each participant. Statistical analysis of the
data obtained was performed with the help of SPSS 13.0 software. Results. The study of successful training in athletes divided into groups in terms of gender, sports qualification, and sports specialization did not reveal any statistically significant differences. By using multifactor dispersion analysis, it was established that successful neurobiofeedback in athletes depended on all the abovementioned factors (F = 2.780; P < 0.05). Conclusion. Successful neurobiofeedback in athletes is determined by the combination of three factors (gender, sports specialization, sports qualification), which do not possess significant effect when studied separately.

Authors: Frolova Rimma Igorevna , Baiguzhina Olga Vadimovna
Published: December 2019

Aim. In the present work, victimity is considered as a psychological deviation manifestingin specific behavioral responses that characterize the type of potential victim. The emphasis ismade on the necessity of taking into account a realized victimity of a person, the formation of itsadequate forms and its correction at the stage of professional training. The article is aimed at establishingthe style characteristics of behavior self-regulation in students with various victimity.Materials and methods. Based on the analysis of the results obtained according to the “Realizedvictimity” scale (the “Tendency to victim behavior” questionnaire) all subjects were divided intotwo groups: an average (n = 36) and below-average (n = 53) victimity. The data on victimity, behaviorself-regulation and emotional intelligence in students of the pedagogical university wereobtained using the corresponding questionnaires: “Tendency to victim behavior”, “Style of behaviorself-regulation”, “Emotional intelligence”. Results. In the structure of students’ victimity,high values are observed on scales that assess the tendency to addictive and helpless behavior, toaggressive victim behavior, to self-damaging and self-destructive behavior, and to non-criticalbehavior. When comparing groups of students with various victimity, the following features wereregistered expressed in the differences in the style characteristics of behavior self-regulation (inthe implementation of modeling, assessment and flexible interaction); in the absence of differencesin the parameters of emotional intelligence. Conclusion. Features of behavior selfregulationin students are determined by their victimity. Subjects with low victimity are twice aslikely to show high behavior self-regulation compared to respondents with average victimity. Theidentified risk group of students who are prone to addictive and helpless behavior requires specialmeasures to accompany their social adaptation at the university. When it comes to the formationof professional competencies of the future teacher, it is advisable to include in the program ofelective courses the analysis of the results of studies of victimity in students, pedagogical workers,as well as ways to correct victim identity deformation.

Published: December 2019

Aim. Professional identity in modern psychological and pedagogical studies is connected withthe issues of professional self-determination, personality development, and self-actualization andreflected in the maturity of professional self-identification. Identifying oneself with other people inintercultural communication is a dynamic characteristic of professional identity. A positive professionalidentity is provided by the confidence in the choice made and respect for profession in society.The purpose of this article is to reveal the communicative and emotional indicators of professionalidentity in future doctors, which are formed during their study in medical universities. Materialsand methods. Communicative and emotional indicators reflect the professional qualities of adoctor directly connected with communication and the ability to control emotions in a dialog betweena patient and doctor. Such indicators include objective, standardized, and constructive communicationprocedure, the ability to control one’s emotions and the emotions of other people. Thearticle provides the data of the empirical study of communicative and emotional indicators obtainedwith the following methods: “The assessment of the correlation between ‘I am an ideal doctor’ and‘I am a real doctor’”, “Hall’s EQ emotional intelligence test”. Fifty students from the medical universityaged from 19 to 22 years participated in the study. Statistical processing of the data obtainedwas performed by means of cluster and correlation analysis (Spearman correlation analysis) withthe SPSS Statistics 17.0 software. Results. The analysis of empirical data about the correlationsbetween the indicators was performed, the main stages of their formation during the study inmedical universities were described. Conclusion. The communicative and emotional indicatorsof professional identity in future doctors are formed during their study in medical universities.The correlations between a standardized communication procedure, the control of one’s emotionsand the emotions of other people are genetically primary. These conclusions allow us to describethe main stages of psychological and pedagogical provision of professional identity in future doctors:the first stage is connected with acquiring the rules of professional etiquette, speech cultureand techniques, the methods of nonverbal communication and listening to patients; the secondstage deals with the ability to control one’s emotions and to be objective; the third stage contributesto problem-solving skills in a form of role and business games aimed at the development ofemotional and communicative qualities.

Authors: Kamenskaya Valentina Georgievna , Tomanov Leonid Vladimirovich
Published: December 2019

Aim. The article deals with justifying the hypothesis about a decrease in the intellectual abilities of preschoolers during the emergence of internet technologies. Materials and methods. We conducted a pseudo-longitudinal investigation in two series: in 2006 and 2014. The efficiency of intellectual activity was measured in the preschoolers aged 6-7 years from the same educational establishment and the same speech development program. The total sample of the study is 135 persons (100 preschoolers were examined in 2006; 35 preschoolers were examined in 2014). The average age of children from the first sample was 6.5±0.6 years, from the second sample – 6.6±1.1. The assessment of general and nonverbal intellect was conducted with the Raven matrix test. The verbal and terminological components of intellectual activity were assessed with the author’s method of a targeted associative experiment (Kamenskaya et al., 2011). Test performance was compared with the stochastic parameters of RR-intervals recording which was made before and after the test. The duration of ECG recording was 5 minutes. The total time without any spontaneous movements was equal 10 minutes. ECG processing was performed with the method of nonlinear stochastic RR-intervals recording, which provided information about the frequency and spectrum of cardiac intervals fluctuations in each series. The statistical processing of the results obtained and their interpretation were performed with the SPSS-15 software for Windows-7. The significance of differences was assessed with a Student’s t-criterion for independent samples. Results. We revealed a statistically significant increase in general and nonverbal intellect in the second sample compared to the first sample. Verbal-logical intellect has changed neither in boys nor in girls during the active emergence of internet technologies. The parameters of nonlinear stochastic intervals recording were not connected in a certain way with the changes in the indicators of intellectual activity. Conclusion. The hypothesis on a negative effect of internet technologies on the intellectual functions of modern preschoolers was not proved.

The nature of adaptation shifts in students depends on ethnic, ecological, and morphological indicators determining the functional status of the body. Its functional status and functional abilities conditioned by academic and professional activities are determined by the cerebral process, which influences the efficiency of adaptation and cognitive performance in general. The article deals with studying the features of psychophysiological potential in Russian and Kazakh first-year female students during their adaptation to studying at the pedagogical university. Materials and methods. We conducted the diagnostics of the functional status of the central nervous system and cognitive performance in first-year female students at pedagogical universities. The average age of participants was 17.9 years. The total sample (n = 120) consisted of the Russian and Kazakh students living in Kostanay (Kazakhstan) and Chelyabinsk (Russia). A simple eye motor response (SEMR) and a complex eye motor response (CEMR) to a light stimulus were measured with the NS-Psychotest equipment. The calculated data are the following: the functional status of the system; response stability; level of functional abilities. These data were used as a basis for the assessment of cognitive performance in the participants of the study. Results. The results obtained characterize the neuro-dynamic basis of first-year students’ adaptation expressed in the average level of CNS activity, mobility of nervous processes, and optimal functional abilities. In the conditions of the average intragroup expression of the functional criteria of the central nervous system better cognitive processes for the processing of sensory information were revealed in students from Chelyabinsk compared to Kostanay. Conclusion. The analysis of the data obtained revealed the regional specifics of the average values of chronoreflexometry in first-year students, namely a significantly higher level of neural interaction and sensorimotor processing in first-year students from Chelyabinsk.

Published: December 2019

Aim: According to the Russian Center of Emergency and Radiation Medicine, cardiovascular disorders remain one of the most important for firefighters and rescuers: during a 20-year monitoring period the rate for IX class diseases has changed from 19.5% to 29% with a constant increase in days away from work among firefighters. Arterial hypertension is in the leading place among cardiovascular disorders. Therefore, the issue of the early diagnosis of these disorders remains relevant.  The article deals with describing a psychophysiological model of stress-induced cardiovascular disorders risk development in various categories of professional expertise for firefighters. Materials and methods. A comparative analysis of heart rate variability index, pulse wave velocity, rheoencephalography is conducted.146 respondents were examined: 81 cadets of the 1st, 3rd and 5th years of study in 3 categories of professional expertise (average age 20 ± 1.64 years) and 65 males, aged from 20 to 50 years (average age 24.7 ± 5 years). The recording of HRV and PWV data was carried out using VNS-Micro and Poly-Spectrum 8 (Neurosoft Ltd.) computer systems. The results were processed with the standard methods of non-parametric statistics. Categories of professional expertise were determined by standard methods, according to the order of the Russian Emergencies Ministry. Results. Personnel of the 1st and 3rd categories of professional expertise are characterized by the optimal heart rate regulation; they are better adapted to the effects of professional extreme factors and have a good level of adaptive reserves of the body. Cadets of the 2nd category of professional expertise are more at risk of maladaptive cardiovascular disorders. A critical period for the formation of stress-related disorders is the work experience of 5 to 10 years. Conclusion. The described model of cardiovascular disorders development risk allows us to make suggestions for improving the system of medical and psychological support, as well as the professional selection system, for firefighters depending on the category of professional expertise.

HIV disproportionately affects men who have sex with men and transwomen in Latin America. Globally, efforts to map, enumerate, and describe male and transwomen sex workers (MTSWs) are limited. We mapped and described venue- and non-venue–based MTSWs and enumerated venuebased MTSWs in Lima, Peru's capital. With venue-based MTSWs, we identified and described the venues, SWs, and clients and enumerated the SWs. With non-venue–based MTSWs, we described SW offerings and SWs. Male SWs (MSWs) are concentrated downtown, with many moving online. Transwomen SWs (TSWs) are spread across metropolitan Lima, with fewer online. At venues, there are more TSWs than MSWs, TSWs reported more HIV and sexual risk behaviors, and MSWs had more female partners. Non-venue–based MSWs used condoms less than venue-based MSWs. Results support systematic efforts to describe hard-to-reach MTSWs and their different types of partners, all of whom have unique, differing needs for HIV/ STI education, prevention, testing, and care services.

The impact of pannexin-1 (Panx1) channels on synaptic transmission is poorly understood. Here, we show that selective block of Panx1 in single postsynaptic hippocampal CA1 neurons from male rat or mouse brain slices causes intermittent, seconds long increases in the frequency of sEPSC following Schaffer collateral stimulation. The increase in sEPSC frequency occurred without an effect on evoked neurotransmission. Consistent with a presynaptic origin of the augmented glutamate release, the increased sEPSC frequency was prevented by bath-applied EGTA-AM or TTX. Manipulation of a previously described metabotropic NMDAR pathway (i.e., by preventing ligand binding to NMDARs with competitive antagonists or blocking downstream Src kinase) also increased sEPSC frequency similar to that seen when Panx1 was blocked. This facilitated glutamate release was absent in transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) KO mice and prevented by the TRPV1 antagonist, capsazepine, suggesting it required presynaptic TRPV1. We show presynaptic expression of TRPV1 by immunoelectron microscopy and link TRPV1 to Panx1 because Panx1 block increases tissue levels of the endovanilloid, anandamide. Together, these findings demonstrate an unexpected role for metabotropic NMDARs and postsynaptic Panx1 in suppression of facilitated glutamate neurotransmission.

SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENTThe postsynaptic ion and metabolite channel, pannexin-1, is regulated by metabotropic NMDAR signaling through Src kinase. This pathway suppresses facilitated release of presynaptic glutamate during synaptic activity by regulating tissue levels of the transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 agonist anandamide.

Published: December 2019

Impaired mitochondrial function and aberrant neuronal network activity are believed to be early events in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD), but how mitochondrial alterations contribute to aberrant activity in neuronal circuits is unknown. In this study, we examined the function of mitochondrial protein deacetylase sirtuin 3 (SIRT3) in the pathogenesis of AD. Compared with AppPs1 mice, Sirt3-haploinsufficient AppPs1 mice (Sirt3+/−AppPs1) exhibit early epileptiform EEG activity and seizure. Both male and female Sirt3+/−AppPs1 mice were observed to die prematurely before 5 months of age. When comparing male mice among different genotypes, Sirt3 haploinsufficiency renders GABAergic interneurons in the cerebral cortex vulnerable to degeneration and associated neuronal network hyperexcitability. Feeding Sirt3+/−AppPs1 AD mice with a ketone ester-rich diet increases SIRT3 expression and prevents seizure-related death and the degeneration of GABAergic neurons, indicating that the aggravated GABAergic neuron loss and neuronal network hyperexcitability in Sirt3+/−AppPs1 mice are caused by SIRT3 reduction and can be rescued by increase of SIRT3 expression. Consistent with a protective role in AD, SIRT3 levels are reduced in association with cerebral cortical Aβ pathology in AD patients. In summary, SIRT3 preserves GABAergic interneurons and protects cerebral circuits against hyperexcitability, and this neuroprotective mechanism can be bolstered by dietary ketone esters.

SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENTGABAergic neurons provide the main inhibitory control of neuronal activity in the brain. By preserving mitochondrial function, SIRT3 protects parvalbumin and calretinin interneurons against Aβ-associated dysfunction and degeneration in AppPs1 Alzheimer's disease mice, thus restraining neuronal network hyperactivity. The neuronal network dysfunction that occurs in Alzheimer's disease can be partially reversed by physiological, dietary, and pharmacological interventions to increase SIRT3 expression and enhance the functionality of GABAergic interneurons.
La humanidad como criterio normativo en la obra de Judith Butler
Authors: Bello Reguera Gabriel , Azaovagh de la Rosa Anisa
Published: December 2019

Este artículo aborda la contextualización de la ética de Butler en un marco teórico que da por supuesta la perspectiva deconstructiva y que, por su parte, es reconstruido de acuerdo a dos criterios, las nociones de “matriz disciplinal” y de “paradigma”. Mediante ellas se trata de proporcionar un sistema de conceptos o categorías usuales en la teoría ética en general, pero redefinidas en términos butlerianos. Estas categorías a las que nos referimos son la acción, los sujetos, los juicios y los criterios morales y, que, aplicadas a la ética de Butler, dan lugar a una ética precaria en la que la humanidad normativa se revela como imposible universalmente y, por tanto, no puede ser utilizada como “fundamento” de un juicio moral universal. Por ejemplo, la que se sugiere mediante las manifestaciones de duelo por la humanidad de “los nuestros”, víctimas de la violencia, de las que queda excluida estructuralmente la humanidad de “los otros”.

Foreign practices of smart specialisation and possibilities of its implementation in Ukraine
Authors: Gryga Vitalii
Published: December 2019

The paper is devoted to the issues of implementation of smart specialisation concept into the regional development policy of Ukraine. The relevance of the issue is related to the need of harmonization of the regional and innovation policies of Ukraine with the EU standards, on the one hand, and to forced incorporation of smart specialisation concept into the regional development strategies, on the other hand. The experience of the EU regions reveals certain peculiarities of the implementation of smart specialisation in regions with low institutional capacity, and therefore, their experience for Ukraine is the most useful. Therefore, the aim of the paper is to identify specific features of the implementation of smart specialisation in countries and regions with low institutional capacity and to provide recommendations for its implementation in Ukraine. Thus, the paper studies prerequisites for the emergence of smart specialisation in the EU, which is related to shortcomings in development and implementation of regional innovation strategies that did not sufficiently considered needs of the regions, or were focused on traditional sectors of industry.
The peculiarities of the implementation of smart specialisation in countries/regions with low institutional capacity are also identified. They are related to strong focus of strategies on building links between innovation development actors, but insufficient attention was paid to the final stages of the innovation process. It is shown that such countries and regions need to make greater efforts in the implementation of smart specialisation through a substantial modification of the existing processes or initiating new processes in the domains of innovation and regional development policy making. Since the choice of policy tools is a serious problem for regions and countries with low institutional capacity, the paper provides a number of recommendations from European experts on this issue.
In particular, it concerns the use of mini-mixes aimed at coping with a specific challenge or at developing a certain smart priority through the synergy / complex actions of various types of policy instruments (regulation, fiscal incentives, grants, human development and mobility). Considering the experience gained in the EU regions, some policy recommendations on the implementation of smart specialisation concept in Ukraine were developed. The recommendations are aimed at minimizing the risk of distortion of the smart specialisation concept and at the development of more effective action plans, in particular through broader involvement of European experts in the process of the implementation of smart specialisation in Ukraine on national and regional levels.
Integration of Transport, Survival, and Sampling Efficiency in a Model of South Delta Entrainment
Authors: Smith William
Published: December 2019

A Bayesian hierarchical model that integrated information about state and observation processes was used to estimate the number of adult Delta Smelt entrained into the southern Sacramento−San Joaquin Delta during water export operations by the California State Water Project and the Central Valley Project. The model hierarchy accounted for dynamic processes of transport, survival, sampling efficiency, and observation. Water export, mark−recapture, and fish facility count data informed each process. Model diagnostics and simulation testing indicated a good fit of the model, and that parameters were jointly estimable in the Bayesian hierarchical model framework. The model was limited, however, by sparse data to estimate survival and State Water Project sampling efficiency. Total December to March entrainment of adult Delta Smelt ranged from an estimated 142,488 fish in 2000 to 53 fish in 2014, and the efficiency of louvers used to divert entrained fish to fish facilities appeared to decline at high and low primary intake channel velocities. Though applied to Delta Smelt, the hierarchical modeling framework was sufficiently flexible to estimate the entrainment of other pelagic species.
Evaluación del carbono acumulado en suelo en sistemas silvopastoriles del Caribe Colombiano
Authors: Contreras Santos José Luis , Martínez Atencia Judith , Cadena Torres Jorge , Fallas Guzmán Cindy Katherine
Published: December 2019

Los sistemas silvopastoriles juegan un papel importante en la recuperación de suelos degradados y en la mitigación de los gases de efecto invernadero, debido a su capacidad para capturar el carbono atmosférico e inmovilizarlo en el suelo. Para estimar el potencial de los sistemas silvopastoriles para incorporar carbono al suelo, se evaluaron 4 sistemas de diferente grado de complejidad estructural, frente a una pastura sin árboles, en un sistema ganadero del Caribe Colombiano. Las evaluaciones incluyeron mediciones de la cantidad de carbono orgánico acumulado, las propiedades físicas del suelo como densidad aparente y resistencia mecánica a la penetración, y la biomasa de raíces finas. Los resultados mostraron que en promedio los arreglos silvopastoriles presentaron una acumulación de carbono que varió entre 60,6 y 65,1 t.ha-1 de C, en comparación con el sistema tradicional ganadero, de pasturas sin árboles, en el cual se detectó una acumulación de 38,3 t.ha-1 de C. Lo anterior, representa una acumulación de carbono que es entre 58,2 y 69,9% superior en los sistemas silvopastoriles, comparada con el sistema tradicional de producción ganadera, basada en solo pasturas. Igualmente, se observó una reducción en la densidad aparente del suelo y la resistencia a la penetración de las raíces, concomitantes con una mayor presencia de raíces finas en los sistemas silvopastoriles, en comparación con lo observado en el suelo de la pastura sin árboles. Estos resultados demuestran los efectos benéficos de los sistemas silvopastoriles en la incorporación del carbono al suelo y representan una alternativa viable para el establecimiento de una ganadería más sostenible en el Caribe Colombiano.
Efecto de la densidad de siembra y volumen de sustrato sobre parámetros de riego y rendimiento de chile dulce ‘Dulcitico’, en hidroponía bajo invernadero

La investigación se realizó de abril a setiembre de 2016, en la Estación Experimental Agrícola Fabio Baudrit Moreno de la Universidad de Costa Rica, Alajuela, Costa Rica, con el híbrido costarricense de chile dulce ‘Dulcitico’, en sistema hidropónico bajo invernadero. Se evaluó el efecto de 2 densidades de siembra (1,4 y 2,4 plantas.m-2) y 3 volúmenes de sustrato (7, 14 y 21 L.planta-1) sobre el rendimiento, contenido de agua total disponible (ATD) en el sustrato, drenaje, evapotranspiración del cultivo (ETc) y eficiencia de uso de agua (EUA). Se utilizó un diseño de 3 bloques completos al azar con arreglo bifactorial de tratamientos 2 x 3. La ETc se obtuvo mediante balance de agua en el sustrato y la EUA como el cociente entre rendimiento y la ETc. Para todas las variables de respuesta, no se observaron diferencias entre ambas densidades de siembra, conforme se incrementó el volumen de sustrato desde 7 hasta 21 L (p<0,05). Ambos factores afectaron (p<0,05) de forma independiente a todas las variables; excepto el ATD y el rendimiento, que únicamente fueron afectados (p<0,05) por el volumen de sustrato y la densidad de plantas, respectivamente. En todos los casos, el efecto de mayor magnitud fue debido al factor densidad. El volumen de sustrato no afectó el rendimiento, sin embargo, contribuyó a mejorar la EUA al reducir los volúmenes de riego, de ETc y de drenaje. A mayor densidad de siembra incrementó el rendimiento (kg.m-2), pero redujo la EUA, debido a un mayor consumo de agua (ETc), y mayores volúmenes de riego, de ATD y de drenaje. La mayor EUA se obtuvo a 1,4 plantas.m-2 y 7 L de sustrato.planta-1, por una reducción de 13% en la ETc respecto al cultivo con 21 L de sustrato.planta-1 y 2,4 plantas.m-2.
Evaluación de la efectividad de gel de sábila y agua de coco como enraizantes naturales en diferentes sustratos para propagación asexual de árboles de Ficus benjamina
Authors: Alvarado Aguayo Allan , Munzón Quintana Mónica
Published: December 2019

Esta investigación analizó el comportamiento de los efectos de diferentes enraizantes y sustratos en la reproducción asexual y desarrollo de plántulas de ficus (Ficus benjamina). El estudio se realizó en el vivero comercial, ubicado en el cantón El Triunfo, provincia Guayas, Ecuador. Se utilizó un diseño completamente al azar con arreglo bifactorial 2x4, con 4 repeticiones. Se evaluaron las siguientes variables: prendimiento, vigor de plantas, emisión de brotes, longitud de raíces y peso de raíces a los 60 días después de la siembra. Se utilizaron diferentes tratamientos con sustratos a base de arena de río, hojarasca de cacao y tierra amarilla, en los cuales se evaluó la efectividad de diferentes combinaciones de gel de aloe y agua de coco, como enraizantes, frente a una formulación comercial del regulador fisiológico ácido naftalacético (ANA). El mejor tratamiento para enraizamiento y propagación fue tierra amarilla + cascarilla de arroz + gel de aloe, cuyo porcentaje de prendimiento alcanzó 54,17% y 1,95 brotes, superando a la hormona comercial, que llegó a un prendimiento de 41,67% y 1,15 brotes. Para determinar el efecto económico de los tratamientos, se utilizó como base el precio de vivero de una planta de ficus ($1,25 USD) y 1000 esquejes propagados como referencia. Así pudo determinarse que el sustrato a base de tierra amarilla + cascarilla de arroz + gel de aloe obtuvo una utilidad de $165,10 USD con una relación beneficio/costo igual a $1,41; superando al uso de la hormona comercial en la que la utilidad fue $-195,67 con una relación beneficio/costo de $0,52. Los resultados indican que la combinación de tierra amarilla y cascarilla de arroz como sustratos y gel de sábila como enraizante natural, constituyen una alternativa a la hormona comercial para la propagación de esquejes de ficus en viveros.
Santo António militar no contexto ibérico
Authors: De Azevedo Vaz dos Santos Isabel Mª Dâmaso
Published: December 2019

Uma das vertentes do culto antoniano, de origem puramente portuguesa, reside no facto de se atribuir a Santo António um papel de relevo no campo militar, enquanto protector do exército português. A partir de meados do século XVII, deu-se início a esta tradição, que, com o apoio da monarquia e das instâncias militares, levou a que Santo António fosse alistado no exército português, no seio do qual se distinguiu, nomeadamente nas lutas contra castelhanos e franceses. As prestigiantes patentes e insígnias militares que lhe foram sendo outorgadas traduzem o êxito das acções militares em que se viu envolvido, contribuindo determinantemente para a defesa da soberania nacional. A partir do século XVIII, são conhecidos vestígios da faceta militar de Santo António posta ao serviço da coroa espanhola, sobretudo nas lutas contra mouros e franceses, assumindo-se igualmente como figura de relevo no processo de garantia da soberania.

Danau Paniai termasuk tipe danau tektonik, berukuran besar dan telah dimanfaatkan sebagai tempat pariwisata, transfortasi, irigasi persawahan, sumber air minum dan perikanan tangkap. Aktivitas manusia disekitar danau juga berpengaruh terhadap kualitas, kesuburan dan produksi ikan perairan danau. Penelitian kualitas air, status trofik dan potensi produksi ikan bertujuan untuk mengevaluasi parameter kualitas air, tingkat kesuburan serta potensi produksi ikan perairan danau. Parameter diukur terdiri dari suhu, kedalaman, kecerahan, daya hantar listrik, pH, oksigen, alkalinitas, amonia, nitrat, fosfat, total fosfor dan klorofil-a. Pengukuran dan pengambilan sampel air dilaksanakan pada bulan April, Juli dan Oktober 2016 di tujuh stasiun pengamatan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan Danau Paniai mempunyai kualitas air yang baik untuk kehidupan ikan dan udang. Nilai indeks status trofik berdasarkan metode Carlson sebesar 49, mengklasifikasikan perairan pada tingkat kesuburan sedang. Angka potensi produksi ikan Danau Paniai ada sebesar 491 ton/tahun dan tingkat pemanfaatan sumberdaya ikan dan udang oleh nelayan ada sebesar 20,3 ton/tahun atau 4,13% dari angka potensi produksi ikannya. Lake Paniai is a tectonic lake, large in size and has been used as sites for tourism, transportation, rice irrigation, drinking water sources and capture fisheries. Human activities around the lake also affect the quality, trophics and fish production of lake waters. Research on water quality, trophic status and potential for fish production aimed to evaluate the parameters of water quality, trophic levels and fish production potential of lake waters. The measured parameters consisted of temperature, depth, transfarancy, conductivity, pH, oxygen, alkalinity, ammonia, nitrate, phosphate, total phosphorus and chlorophyll-a. Measurement and sampling of water were carried out in April, July and October 2016 at seven observation stations. The results showed that Lake Paniai had good water quality for fish and shrimp life. Trophic status index value of 49, classified waters at mesotrophic level. The number of fish production potential was 491 tons/year and the utilization levels of fish and shrimp resources by fishermen was 20.3 tons/year or 4.13% of the potential number of fish production.
Filosofia Decolonial em diálogo epistêmico para educação
Authors: De Paula Junior Antonio Filogenio
Published: December 2019

Este artigo analisa como a educação brasileira sofre ao longo do tempo o impacto de medidas governamentais que tentam submetê-la à condição de subserviência ao interesse político, no qual os valores socioeconômicos estabelecidos são sobrepostos aos valores que pensam a integridade humana. O pensamento dusseliano pautado na Filosofia da Libertação, uma filosofia da práxis contra a colonização, ao lado da pedagogia freiriana possibilitam a atualização da crítica referente à educação que também é alvo de um processo de colonização epistêmica, uma perspectiva em grande medida pautada no olhar de dominação do centro que tem sido um desafio no campo do conhecimento, algo que necessita ser superado no intuito de promover a visibilidade de outros modos de ser necessários ao desenvolvimento humano capazes de contribuir na superação de um ethos voltado ao mercado. A exclusão de negros e indígenas na educação escolar é um exemplo consistente desse quadro histórico de omissões. Para tanto o reconhecimento das contribuições epistêmicas africanas na constituição da epistemologia afro-brasileira é fundamental. Este reconhecimento parte da mesma prerrogativa estabelecida pela Filosofia da Libertação que fala do conhecimento do outro enquanto ser e da Pedagogia do Oprimido que fala do pronunciamento de si. Portanto, a epistemologia afro-brasileira refere-se ao conjunto de saberes gestados nesta cultura que precisam ser disponibilizados para reflexão sobre a educação. Palavras-chave: Filosofia, Libertação, Educação, Colonialidade e Pensamento.
Retrato do início da carreira docente
Authors: Fonsaca Ruy Fabiana Alessandra , Chaluh Laura Noemi
Published: December 2019

Este artigo é recorte de uma pesquisa que objetivou compreender as experiências vivenciadas pelos professores em início de carreira docente. Para isso, foi constituído um grupo do qual participaram professoras iniciantes. No grupo, com reuniões mensais, foram desenvolvidas propostas articuladas a discussões acerca do fazer docente. Algumas questões que nortearam este estudo foram: Quais são as relações que o docente em início de carreira estabelece na escola? Qual a importância destas relações e como marcam as ações cotidianas do professor na vida escolar? Como as experiências vividas afetam e constituem o “ser” professor? Como a escola recebe e acompanha os professores iniciantes no processo de inserção na escola? Tratou-se de uma pesquisa narrativa de experiências do vivido (LIMA; GERALDI; GERALDI, 2015) e a produção dos dados foi pautada no Paradigma Indiciário (GINZBURG, 1989). Neste artigo damos visibilidade às experiências de uma das professoras iniciantes, a partir de uma de suas produções escritas, devido às especificidades e abrangência de suas vivências nessa fase da carreira, e estabelecemos relações com as abordagens da literatura sobre a temática. O trabalho sugere a necessidade de políticas de acolhimento a professores iniciantes.Palavras-Chave: Professores Iniciantes; Formação de Professores; Pesquisa Narrativa.
Educação infantil e gestão democrática: desafios do cotidiano para a garantia dos direitos das crianças
Authors: Guedes Monção Maria Aparecida
Published: December 2019

O texto tem como objetivo problematizar a gestão democrática na educação infantil a partir de análise de algumas situações observadas no cotidiano de uma creche paulistana, que retratam o dia a dia das crianças e a relação estabelecida entre adultos e crianças. Parte do pressuposto de que a finalidade da gestão educacional na primeira infância é a garantia dos direitos fundamentais das crianças por meio da constituição de um contexto educacional norteado por práticas democráticas. Para tanto, pautamo-nos nos resultados de uma pesquisa de doutorado, cujo estudo empírico foi realizado em um Centro de Educação Infantil (CEI) da rede municipal de São Paulo, por meio de entrevistas semiestruturada, observação participante e análise documental. Neste texto, utiliza-se apenas registros do diário de campo relativos as observações da jornada das crianças na instituição. As principais conclusões acenam para a necessidade de considerar o cotidiano como instrumento potente para reflexão e implementação de práticas democráticas nas instituições de educação infantil.

Estudos Culturais: emergência, conceitos e aproximações em debate
Authors: De Souza Daniela De Souza Dias , Guizzo Bianca Salazar
Published: December 2019

O presente ensaio tem como propósitos principais: 1) apresentar como ocorreu a expansão da perspectiva teórica dos Estudos Culturais, de viés pós-estruturalista, como também apresentar o modo como ele se vincula ao campo da educação e como se apresentam profícuas algumas problematizações a respeito de diferentes culturas; 2) discutir a potencialidade e a produtividade da referida perspectiva para investigações desenvolvidas no campo da educação. Para tanto, apresentam-se alguns conceitos centrais e potentes utilizados nesta perspectiva, quais sejam: Cultura, Pedagogia Cultural, Identidade, Diferença e Representação. A partir da apresentação e da discussão desses conceitos argumenta-se que a perspectiva teórica dos Estudos Culturais e sua articulação com a educação convocam-nos a questionamentos e, consequentemente, a possíveis rupturas, tensionamentos e problematizações de aspectos que se tomavam como fixos, que se representavam como terrenos seguros e confortáveis no campo das teorias e das práticas educacionais.
