The Horehronie region belongs to the oldest industrial areas in Slovakia. It is contaminated by residual acid tar dumps from times of Petrochema Dubová factory production since 1964. In the presented study, heavy metals (Cu, Cd, Ni, Zn, Pb) were determined in soils and forest fruits (Vaccinium myrtillus L., Vaccinium vitis-idaea L., Fragaria vesca L., Rosa canina L., Rubus idaeus L.) collected over two years from five locations in the Horehronie using Flame AAS method (Zn, Cu, Ni) and Graphite Furnace AAS method (Cd, Pb). The cadmium content, which was higher than its limit value in all analysed soils, poses the biggest threat. We determined more than 20 times the limit value for cadmium in the sample Veľká Smrekovica (9.17 mg/kg).The contamination factor (Cf) values and the geoaccumulation index (Igeo) indicate that this hazardous metal is involved in soil contamination to a large extent. The highest values of the degree of contamination (Cdeg) and the pollution load index (PLI) were determined in samples from the Ždiarska dolina and the Veľká Smrekovica. The contents of nickel and zinc were higher than the limit values only in the 1st sampling year in the Ždiarska dolina sample (46.30 mg/kg; 138.30 mg/kg). The results showed that soil monitoring and remediation of old environmental burdens are important in the territory of the Horehronie region. The highest permissible amounts for cadmium were exceeded in all types of forest fruits (0.03-0.18 mg/kg FW). The contents of nickel and lead were exceeded only in the sample of rosehips (Rosa canina). The contents of zinc and copper were lower than the permissible amounts in all samples. The estimated daily intake (EDI) was lower than the acceptable daily intake of all heavy metals. The bioaccumulation factor (BAF), total hazardous quotient and hazard index of the analysed samples was < 1, which means that the consumption of forest fruits from the Horehronie does not pose a health risk for the consumer.

Application of Conflict Wheel Model in the Analysis of Farmers-Herders Conflict in Adamawa State, Nigeria
Authors: Salihu Mustapha , Enwere Chigozie
Published: May 2023

The study examines the causal factors of the lingering conflict between farmers-herders in the Adamawa. Specifically, it emphasizes issues, dynamics, context, causalities and exit options. The application of the conflict wheel theory suggests, the negative consequences of desertification and decline in ecological resources has in this case informed an unhealthy competition for access to mutual ecological resources between farmers-herders as one of the factors that brought about the deadly conflict. Further analysis reveals the context which has consistently increased in scope, cannot be divorced from existential socio-economic, political, and cultural realities of the Nigerian state. While Causalities seem to be multidimensional encompassing, conflict between two production systems, government inactivity and pre-existing security challenges in the region amongst others discussed. Given the central role of the state in enforcing law and social stability, it is imperative that government at various levels review pre-existing strategies and adopt robust and inclusive strategies. Similarly, the importance of counter desertification and conservative policies cannot be downplayed, and climate conscious pastoral and herding initiatives will also go a long way in averting future ecological resource-based conflicts.

Currently, herbal medicine has proven its effectiveness and undeniable benefits in our daily lives, confirming that plants can prevent and treat. In this context, we are interested in carrying out an ethno-pharmacological survey on the traditional use of Melissa officinalis in the Tabarka region as well as phytochemical screening and the study of antioxidant and antibacterial activities. The survey conducted in the Tabarka region revealed that lemon balm was used in traditional medicine to treat a whole range of pathologies. Indeed, we have shown that Melissa officinalis is traditionally used for the treatment of various diseases and particularly those of the digestive system pathologies and nervous disorders. The survey also revealed three methods of preparation: decoction, infusion and maceration. The method of administration is highly dependent on the pathology to be treated. In the present work, the phytochemical screening showed that Melissa officinalis leaves aqueous extract (MOAE) presents an important scavenging action against the DPPH radical. Importantly, MOAE presented a broad spectrum of antibacterial activity and Gram +ve were more sensitive than Gram-ve bacteria. Thus, the bioactive components of lemon balm can be used as antioxidant and antibacterial substances.

One of the goals of learning Indonesian is that students can write. Writing is an activity of expressing ideas that are in the mind which are obtained through reading, speaking, and listening activities which are described in a word to become a sentence. One of the abilities that students must have in learning Indonesian is writing review texts. The review text is one of the texts that is learned in class XI at the senior high school level. Writing review texts has not obtained optimal results following the minimum school completeness criteria. So we need a learning model that can facilitate students, namely the cooperative integrated reading and composition (CIRC) learning model. The purpose of this study was to obtain results of improving the ability to write review texts through the cooperative integrated reading and composition (CIRC) learning model. SMAN 1 Saradan became the research location. As many as 28 students in class XI MIPA 3 in the 2022/2023 school year were the subjects of the study. Classroom Action Research (PTK) is a research design that goes through four research steps namely planning (plan), action (action), observation (observation), and reflection through two cycles. Tests and observations become instruments in research. Data analysis was carried out through a qualitative approach by calculating the class average value using the percentage of classical completeness. Students who get a KKM score of ≥75 are declared complete. The results of the study were that the ability to write review texts without going through cooperative integrated reading and composition (CIRC) at SMAN 1 Saradan was 82.2, meaning that there were 23 whose grades did not exceed the KKM. While the results of the study were able to write review texts through cooperative reading and composition (CIRC) in cycle I 67.9% or 19 students in the less category. Whereas after being given cycle II it showed a result of 3.6% or 1 student in the less category. Based on the results of the study it was concluded that students' ability to write review texts through cooperative integrated reading and composition (CIRC) can be increased.
Essential and forgotten. Domestic work and the impact of policy responses during the COVID-19 pandemic in Spain and Italy
Authors: Tarragona Laia , Ghidoni Elena
Published: May 2023

Results from the European project RESISTIRÉ show that the pandemic outbreak and policies adopted to contain the virus have reinforced pre-existing gender inequalities, resulting in a “spiral of increasing inequalities” (Axelsson et al., 2021: 110). The care domain is a key part of this spiral and has been at the centre of debates and of some of the COVID-19 policy responses. However, for the most part, policy interventions in the care domain have focused primarily on work-life balance, neglecting the impact of health-related policy restrictions on domestic workers – a highly feminised and racialised sector. Yet these workers have been dramatically affected by the pandemic and related policies, not only in terms of exposure to infection, but also in terms of exacerbation of pre-existing and intersecting inequalities. Moreover, when policies did address the domestic sector, they often reproduced gender stereotyped understandings of the nature of care work, and reinforced racist assumptions on migration. This paper compares the policies on domestic workers enacted during the pandemic in Italy and Spain, which illustrate how public policy engages in gendering and racializing domestic workers. Drawing on Bacchi’s methodology, it seeks to unfold and problematise the representations and implicit assumptions related to care work, and the gender and racial hierarchies underpinning them.

Published: May 2023

Objetivo da pesquisa: Verificar o cumprimento da Lei de Acesso à Informação dos municípios do Oeste do Paraná, para isso, analisaram-se os portais de transparência de todos os municípios da região. Originalidade: A transparência pública tem sido foco de pesquisadores devido a criação de políticas que buscam a efetiva transparência das informações. É o caso da obrigatoriedade na disponibilização de informações por parte dos gestores públicos, em tempo real, a partir da Lei de Acesso à Informação (LAI) de 2011. Após 10 anos de existência da LAI, ainda existe diferença entre o que é praticado pelos municípios. Este estudo apoia-se na Teoria da Agência para explicar a relação entre o gestor público e o cidadão. Metodologia: Como delineamento metodológico, adotou-se uma abordagem quantitativa, por meio da utilização de um disclosure obrigatório que contém 61 itens divididos em 8 blocos. Aplicou-se a correlação de Pearson a fim de identificar a existência de influência das variáveis sobre o nível de transparência. Contribuições Teóricas e práticas: Além de apurar o nível de transparência dos portais, conforme o disclosure, este estudo avança ao verificar se as variáveis influenciam na transparência. Resultados: Concluiu-se que, predominantemente, os municípios não atendem integralmente a legislação. A Remuneração dos Servidores possui correlação significante com todas as variáveis utilizadas pelo estudo e, embora sejam relevantes, não é possível afirmar que haja influência das variáveis selecionadas sobre o nível de transparência atual.

The purpose of the study was to assess the current state of food security in some regions of the Russian Federation, to identify bottlenecks that hinder its achievement, and also to try to determine the relationship between food security indicators and the degree of land degradation - categories that largely determine the socio-ecological development of the region. Belgorod, Vladimir, Volgograd, Kaliningrad, Penza, Samara regions were selected as test regions. At the same time, the choice of the self-sufficiency indicator for the main types of food products as the most representative indicator for assessing food security at the municipal level is justifed. The adapted methodology for calculating self-sufficiency for the municipal level consisted in using the calculated indicators of the required production volumes in accordance with rational consumption standards, which allowed us to obtain an objective assessment of how much municipal formations are able to provide the population living there with the main types of products. The adapted methodology proposed by the authors for calculating indicators of self-sufficiency in basic types of food at the municipal level is described in detail in earlier publications. The results of the analysis of the data obtained on self-sufficiency in such types of products as potatoes, vegetables, meat, milk, fruits and berries in the municipal districts of the test regions in dynamics for the period 2010-2021 are presented. In addition, the relationship between the calculated indicators of self-sufficiency in the main types of food and the degree of land degradation in the municipalities of the test regions was revealed. The results obtained made it possible to identify the main problems associated with ensuring food security and develop proposals to improve the situation.

Acumulación de capital y particularidades en el nacionalismo petrolero argentino
Authors: Dachevsky Fernando
Published: May 2023

Los procesos de nacionalización aparecen de manera recurrente en la historia petrolera mundial. Se trata por ello de un sector que tiende a convertirse en causa del nacionalismo. El presente trabajo se propone examinar particularidades del nacionalismo petrolero argentino. Para ello analizamos sus principales elaboraciones intelectuales a luz de los conflictos principales que generaba la acumulación de capital en dicho sector. Buscamos así identificar desde qué problemáticas se formuló la necesidad de la nacionalización del petróleo en este país.
Recuperando la experiencia de los principales países exportadores, comenzamos reconociendo aquellos determinantes propios de la industria petrolera que la convierten en objeto de especial interés para el nacionalismo. Identificamos la centralidad del problema territorial, así como también los antagonismos que implica. Respecto del caso argentino, reconocemos dos problemáticas especiales: 1) el temprano cuestionamiento del capital privado extranjero; y 2) el retroceso del nacionalismo petrolero en un contexto mundial de nacionalizaciones. Abordando estos puntos nos proponemos contribuir a la comprensión de un sector que históricamente se desenvolvió bajo la dicotomía entre lo público y lo privado.

Hastalar yaş, cinsiyet, histolojik tip özellikleri, semptomlar, guatrın trakea ve vasküler yapılarla ilişkisi, guatrın mediyastinal lokalizasyonu, guatrın mediyastinal uzanımı, hasta şikayetleri, tiroid çapı, rekürrens, trakea basısı özellikleri göz önüne alınarak ve postoperatif komplikasyonları değerlendirilerek incelendi. Sonuçlar: Çalışmaya alınan hastalar guatr özelliklerine göre sınıflandırıldığında median sternotomi veya torakotomi yapılan hastalarda rekürren guatr oranları belirgin yüksek izlendi (%61,5). Mediyastinal uzanımları aortik arka ulaşan ve karina seviyesini geçenlerde median sternotomi veya torakotomi gerekliliği istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bulundu (p=0.007). Diğer parametrelerde belirgin istatistiksel anlamlı bulgular tespit edilmedi. Sonuç: Preoperatif ayrıntılı değerlendirme ile substernal guatrlarda cerrahi girişim yolunu belirleyerek operasyona hazırlıklı girmek mümkün olabilmektedir ve gelecekte daha ileri görüntüleme sistemleri ile gereksiz geniş cerrahilerin önüne geçilebilecektir.
Effects of Fathers’ Psychological Control on Adolescent Subjective Well-Being: Mediating Effects of Internalized Shame and Ambivalent Emotional Expression
Authors: Kim Tae Eun , Lee Woon Kyung
Published: May 2023

Objectives: This study investigated how fathers’ use of psychological control affects adolescents’ subjective well-being, mediated by their internalized shame and ambivalent emotional expression. Additionally, potential gender differences in these relationships were also examined.Methods: A total of 235 middle-school students (118 boys, 117 girls) were recruited and independent samples t-tests, Pearson correlation coefficient analysis, and structural equation modeling were utilized for data analysis. Potential differences in the pathways based on adolescents’ gender were explored via multi-group analysis.Results: Fathers’ psychological control had a direct impact on girls’ subjective well-being, but only indirect effects on boys’ and girls’ subjective well-being through internalized shame. The indirect effect of fathers’ psychological control on boys’ subjective well-being through ambivalent emotional expression was significant, but not for girls. Lastly, the indirect effect on boys’ subjective well-being through internalized shame and ambivalent emotional expression was significant. The paths between fathers’ psychological control and adolescents’ internalized shame, as well as between adolescents’ ambivalent emotional expression and subjective well-being, exhibited significant gender differences.Conclusion: These results demonstrate that fathers’ use of psychological control significantly impacts adolescents’ subjective well-being, but in different ways for boys and girls. Thus, it is crucial to consider the differing roles of fathers in parent-child relationships during adolescence, and to develop tailored parent and family education programs accordingly.
PARTO COM DOULA: EXPERIÊNCIA MATERNA COMPARTILHADA EM VÍDEOS NA INTERNET (YOUTUBE)

Considerando a crescente contratação de doulas, por mulheres que buscam uma experiência de parto humanizada e protegida da violência obstétrica, buscamos compreender os sentidos afetivo-emocionais atribuídos por mulheres à experiência do parto com doula. Nesta investigação qualitativa, selecionamos no site YouTube dez vídeos em que mães relatam sua experiência pessoal de parto assistido por doula. A análise psicanalítica do material narrativo resultou em três campos de sentido afetivo-emocional: “Parto (des)humanizado”, que revela o temor da violência obstétrica e o imaginário de que humanização significa ausência de intervenções; “Empoderadas, mas acompanhadas”, que comunica o valor do acompanhante para o protagonismo da mulher em trabalho de parto; e, “A bolsa da Mary Poppins”, que alude ao lugar mágico ocupado pela doula no imaginário feminino. Concluímos pela necessidade de superação das resistências dos profissionais de saúde na busca de práticas de cuidado que integrem o cuidado físico, psicológico e social durante o processo de parto.
Race for attention: Twitter campaign of Italian party leaders before the 2018 parliamentary elections
Authors: Takács Lili
Published: May 2023

The 2018 Italian Parliamentary elections marked the success of populist parties. With the consolidation of hybrid media campaigning Twitter became a growingly important communication channel for party leaders. When analysing the Twitter communication from 1 February 2018 to 4 March 2018 (day of the elections) Matteo Salvini and Matteo Renzi dominated the campaign in the Twittersphere. Other party leaders didn’t used Twitter as skilfully as these two politicians, their engagement indicators are less lower than that of Salvini and Renzi. The internal communicational dynamic between the party leaders shows that their main target was Matteo Renzi. Even though he had the most followers within this period, overall his communication indicators were good, his party suffered a historical loss at the elections.

The study developed and tested the acceptability of key innovative value-added products, including vegetable-fortified bread and pastry products (cookies and chinchin), using each of these three indigenous vegetables, namely Telfairia occidentalis Hook. F. (fluted pumpkin), Amaranthus virdis L. (local amaranth), and Solanum macrocarpon L. (eggplant). The bread was fortified with each of the individual dried leafy vegetables at levels of 1%, 3%, and 5%. Ogi was also fortified with the equivalent of the dried Telfaria occidentalis in the wet form at 1%, 3%, and 5%, while pastry was fortified with the only extract obtained from amaranth leafy vegetable at 1%, 3%, and 5%. Results from the MicroVeg project showed that bread fortified with 3% (w/w) dried vegetable leaf powders had higher nutritional properties. Pastry formulations that included 3% dried vegetable leaf powders had slightly lower consumer acceptability in terms of taste and color; however, due to the associated potential health benefits, consumers were willing to buy the vegetable-fortified products as replacements for the regular products. This chapter discusses the full details of the nutrition and value addition aspects of MicroVeg with empirical examples of the interventions and the potential contributions to dietary diversity and enhanced family nutrition.

Unlike international labour migration, there is a lack of substantive evidence of precarious work conditions and their associated poor health outcomes among rural-urban migrant labour workers. A lacuna that this paper attempts to fill in one of Ghana’s urban slums, Agbogbloshie. We employed a sequential explanatory mixed methods design. In the absence of any sampling frame, simple random sampling was used to select 113 migrant household heads, while purposive sampling was used to select 12 in-depth interviews (IDI) and (8) key informant interviews (KII). The paper leans on the Harris-Todaro (1970) model and the ecological model. We found various precarious work activities, mostly dirty, demeaning, dangerous, and unrewarding. Logistic regression was performed on whether or not the type of work undertaken by the migrants resulted in ill-health. Using motor riders as reference, it indicates that electronic waste dealers’ odds of ill-health (OR=1.0 [95%CI: 0.09–10.17]; P=1.0). Scraps dealers (OR=0.69[95%CI: 0.10–4.72]; P=0.71). Head porters (OR=0.25[95%CI: 0.22–6.97]; P=0.80. Street hawkers (OR= 0.5[95%CI: 0.03–7.45]; P=0.62). Truck pushers (0.83[95%CI: 0.05–13.63]; P=0.90). However, the association between precarious work and ill-health was insignificant across all work activities (P > 0.05). We found a slow pace in the government’s response to addressing precarious work activities. We recommend work acceleration.

Biotechnology has a foremost role in the textile industry by enhancing ecofriendly, cost-effective, and energy-efficient manufacturing processes. The use of enzymatic biotechnology is one of the sustainable newly developed state-of-the-art processes for textile processing. To reduce the use of toxic and hazardous chemicals, enzymes have been proposed as one of the finest promising alternatives. Many enzymes have been used widely in textile processes such as lipase, laccase, pectinase, cellulase, catalase, amylase, and protease. The enzymatic use in the textile industry is very promising because they produce top-class goods, and give way to the reduction of water, time, and energy. The increasing demand for natural dyes especially with the incorporation of enzymes makes process more sustainable and eco-friendlier to suppress the toxicity of synthetic dyes. In the first part of the chapter, particular attention has been given to the source and extraction of natural dyes. In the second part of the chapter, different enzymes and their possible roles in the textile industry have been discussed. It is expected that this chapter will provide an innovative direction to the academic researchers, the community of textile and traders as well as artisans who are working in the area of biotechnological applications for the betterment of textile processing.

Published: May 2023

Little is known about the degree to which diversity courses facilitate the learning of multicultural awareness, knowledge, and skills. The aim of this study is to add to this area of research by identify what students learn through participation in a multicultural psychology course. A total of 71 undergraduate students participated in an assessment of a multicultural psychology course. Quantitative analyses indicate that students increased their cultural skills, leadership skills, problem-solving skills, social justice attitudes, multicultural knowledge, multicultural experiences, and empathy from the beginning to the end of the semester. Qualitative findings indicate that students increase their intercultural contact and perspective-taking skills and develop multicultural awareness, knowledge, and skills over the semester. The use of a mixed-method approach increases the reliability of findings that multicultural attitudes, cultural skills, and empathy change over a semester long, multicultural psychology course.
