¡Yo ya no sé ni qué decir! Tensiones y emociones de masculinidad en estudiantes “obligados” a formarse en género (FFyL, UNAM)
Authors: Zabalgoitia Herrera Mauricio , Bautista Rojas Enrique
Published: December 2024

La investigación explora el espectro emocional de estudiantes varones frente a los feminismos recientes y los señalamientos acerca de violencias de género y masculinidad en la UNAM, específicamente en el marco de la asignatura obligatoria Género, violencia y ética comunitaria en la Facultad de Filosofía y Letras. Se empleó una metodología cualitativa que incluyó un cuestionario y un círculo de reflexión, con una muestra intencional no representativa de varones que estaban cursando la materia. Desde una perspectiva centrada en el giro emocional (Sara Ahmed; Suely Rolnik), los resultados revelan un paisaje complejo, caracterizado por una dicotomía no delimitada, a veces contradictoria y oscilante entre emociones defensivas y emociones profundas. Las primeras, como la incomodidad y la indiferencia, reflejaron resistencia hacia las discusiones de género y falta de compromiso con el cambio. Las segundas indicaron una disposición más receptiva hacia el diálogo y la reflexión crítica de las desigualdades de género y la masculinidad. Estos hallazgos destacan la importancia de la formación de género en el entorno universitario, pero además apuntan a la elaboración de estrategias intencionadas, más críticas y hondas, en cuanto a repensar la relación entre formas de violencia sexista y sexual, y las maneras en que se practica la masculinidad como subjetividad emotiva y de voluntad.

The effect of teaching history subjects in social studies course with digital games on student academic success and creative thinking
Authors: Pala Fatih
Published: December 2024

The purpose of this research is to investigate the impact of digital games on students' academic achievement and creative thinking in teaching historical subjects in social studies classes. The data for the research were collected using a mixed-methods model. The study group consists of 7th-grade students from two separate classes studying in a school affiliated with the Ministry of National Education within the boundaries of Erzurum province during the 2022-2023 academic year. Class A represents the experimental group, while Class B represents the control group. A total of 62 students participated in the research, with 31 in the experimental group and 31 in the control group. The quantitative data of the research were collected through Torrance Creative Thinking Test Verbal A-B Forms, an academic achievement test developed by the researcher, and a teacher observation form. The qualitative data were gathered using a semi-structured interview form developed by the researcher. The quantitative data analysis of the research was conducted using the SPSS 21.0 package program. A normality test was performed to determine whether the data followed a normal distribution. Parametric tests such as "Paired Samples t-test, Independent Samples t-test, and ANOVA" were used for the analysis of data showing normal distribution, whereas non-parametric tests like "Mann Whitney U Test and Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test" were utilized for data that did not exhibit normal distribution. The qualitative data of the research were collected through the "Interview Form" and analyzed using content analysis with the MAQODA 20 analysis program. As a result of the research, it was concluded that digital games increased students' academic achievement and encouraged creative thinking. Additionally, according to student opinions, digital games influenced digital principles, creative thinking activities, and types of games. Students faced challenges in creating video games, particularly with video and writing applications during the process of digital game creation. In the research, considering that some students are more engaged in the fun and creative activities of lessons conducted through digital games, efforts should be directed towards enhancing student creativity and fostering a greater focus on learning. Given the recent development of digital games in various aspects of life, there is a need for further research in the field of digital game applications for educational purposes.

Authors: Guo Jing , Asmawi Adelina
Published: December 2024

With the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic, online learning has gained popularity throughout the world in recent years. How EFL learners communicate with their teachers and classmates online has sparked great interest with a view to enhancing their performance in online learning. This study aimed to explore the online communication strategies of Chinese undergraduate
EFL learners and how they vary according to gender and English proficiency. The quantitative method was adopted in this study. The participants were 120 undergraduate EFL learners from a public university in China. The questionnaire on online communication strategies, consisting of 30 items, was developed. Cronbach alpha and factor analysis were conducted to evaluate the reliability and validity of the questionnaire.
The descriptive statistics and independent T-tests were used for data analysis. The study reached the conclusion that the most commonly used online communication strategies are Reduction strategies, followed by Focus on Form, Social-cultural, Paralinguistic, Compensatory,
and Interactional strategies. Male and female learners differed significantly in the use of reduction strategies, focus on form strategies, social-cultural strategies, and paralinguistic strategies. Furthermore, there is a significant difference in the use of all types of online communication strategies between good learners
and poor learners, with good learners applying
more online communication strategies than poor learners. The study indicates that teachers should raise students' awareness of online communication strategies that are conducive to online communication and learning. Training on online communication strategies should be provided with a view to enhancing students' communication competence as well as English proficiency.
Artificial intelligence technologies and ethics in educational processes: solution suggestions and results
Authors: Şahín Kölemen Cansu
Published: December 2024

Artificial intelligence is a technology used to imitate the human-like thinking and decision-making abilities of computer systems. This technology enables computers to perform complex tasks such as data analysis, learning, problem solving and decision making. It is used in the field of education as well as in every field. While the use of artificial intelligence in the field of education provides advantages such as providing personalized learning experiences to students, providing teachers with intuition about student performance and developing educational materials, the ethical dimension should not be ignored. Therefore, the aim of this study is to produce solutions to ethical problems in the teaching and evaluation processes of artificial intelligence technologies in education. Qualitative research method was used in this study. It has adopted the phenomenological research approach among qualitative research methods. The concept of phenomenon is also the ethics of artificial intelligence. The working group consists of teachers, educational technologists and academicians. When selecting the working group, it was taken into consideration that there were teachers who use artificial intelligence applications in education and academics and technologists working in this field. Document analysis and focus group interviews were used as data collection tools. Content analysis was performed on the data obtained. According to the results of the study, ethical problems encountered with the use of artificial intelligence in education were identified and solution suggestions were offered.

Authors: Bishop Rebecca C. , Shanthappa Nidhi , Connolly Sara L. , Wilkins Pamela A. , McCoy Annette M.
Published: December 2024

OBJECTIVE

To establish the reference interval (RI) of fecal calprotectin (fCP) and fCP:protein ratio in the feces of healthy horses and demonstrate preliminary clinical utility for the quantification of intestinal inflammation.

METHODS

Feces were collected from healthy horses (n = 103) and horses with colic (n = 15) or colitis (n = 13). Feces were suspended in buffer to create fecal supernatant. Fecal calprotectin concentration was determined by ELISA, fecal total protein concentration was determined by bicinchoninic acid assay, and the fCP:protein ratio was calculated. Reference intervals for fCP and fCP:protein ratio were calculated from healthy horses. Descriptive and inferential statistics were performed to evaluate associations between fCP concentration and fCP:protein ratio with group and other clinical features. The study period was from September 20, 2023, through April 20, 2024.

RESULTS

The RI for fCP was 0.056 to 0.278 μg/mL; 4 of 13 colitis cases had fCP above the RI. The RI for fCP:protein was 6.6 X 10−6 to 4.9 X 10−5; 5 of 13 colitis cases and 2 of 15 colic cases had fCP:protein above the RI. Horses with colitis had significantly greater fCP (median [quartile 1, quartile 3], 0.234 [0.194, 0.279] μg/mL) than healthy horses (0.196 [0.138, 0.220] μg/mL) or colic cases (0.189 [0.164, 0.215] μg/mL). There was a greater difference in fCP:protein ratio between colitis cases (4.31 X 10−5 [3.19 X 10−5, 6.23 X 10−5]) and both healthy horses (2.19 X 10−5 [1.58 X 10−5, 2.88 X 10−5]) and colic cases (1.52 X 10−5 [1.22 X 10−5, 3.56 X 10−5]).

CONCLUSIONS

Both fCP and fCP:protein ratio were increased in horses in colitis; additional work is needed to establish clinical utility.

CLINICAL RELEVANCE

There are few reliable diagnostic modalities for inflammation of the equine large colon. With additional development of a clinically applicable test and validation in larger population, fecal calprotectin may facilitate noninvasive quantification of intestinal inflammation in horses.
18F-sodium fluoride positron emission tomography is a sensitive imaging technique to detect atherosclerosis in Amazon parrots (Amazona spp)
Authors: Megan Lucyanne , Brust Kelsey , Spriet Matthieu , Ruivo Pedro , Gómez-Ponce Marcel , Beaufrère Hugues
Published: December 2024

OBJECTIVE

To investigate and establish a protocol for 18F-sodium fluoride (18F-NaF) PET scan imaging in Amazon parrots for atherosclerosis diagnosis.

METHODS

In this feasibility proof-of-concept study, 18F-NaF μPET scan and μCT scan were obtained on Hispaniolan (Amazona ventralis) and orange-winged Amazon parrots (A amazonica). A different μPET scan protocol was used for each species. Images were reviewed by 3 observers for arterial calcification and radiotracer uptake indicative of atherosclerosis. A blood lipid profile was also performed. A subset of Hispaniolan Amazon parrots were euthanized after completion of the study, and the heart and arteries were collected for histopathology.

RESULTS

10 adult Hispaniolan and 8 adult orange-winged Amazon parrots were scanned. Atherosclerotic lesions were detected on both μCT and μPET scan in various arteries. The presence of streak artifacts and increased noise on μCT scan limited the ability to detect high-attenuation areas of arteries and obtain observer consensus except for 1 case of severe arterial calcification. μPET scan was overall more sensitive, had higher interobserver agreement in lesion scoring, and detected a higher number of lesions in both species, including in coronary arteries. On histopathology on 5 Amazon parrots, the majority (5/6) of clinically relevant atherosclerotic lesions and some preatheromatous lesions (1/3) were identified on μPET scan. No association between atherosclerosis detection on μPET scan and the lipid profile was observed.

CONCLUSIONS

This study established a safe and effective protocol for 18F-NaF molecular imaging of psittacine atherosclerosis, which proved to be more sensitive than CT scan.

CLINICAL RELEVANCE

18F-sodium fluoride PET scan allows for a more reliable and earlier diagnosis of atherosclerotic lesions in Amazon parrots.

Authors: Chen Chi-Hui , Bratuškins Uģis , Treija Sandra
Published: December 2024

This study examines the evolution of contemporary Latvian architecture by analysing the Latvian Architecture Award Grand Prix-winning works from 1995 to 2024. Using the Davos Baukultur Quality System (DBQS) as an analytical framework, the research integrates discourse analysis of jury statements and architects’ narratives with image analysis of architectural drawings and photographs. The study identifies 44 design issues across eight criteria – governance, functionality, environment, economy, diversity, context, sense of place, and beauty – demonstrating the shift in architectural priorities over time. Notably, functionality and aesthetics dominated early discussions, while later projects increasingly emphasized sustainability, cultural identity, and social inclusion. The introduction of the DBQS in 2021 marked a significant period, with projects showing heightened attention to community engagement and environmental challenges. This analysis highlights Latvian architecture’s dynamic engagement with cultural, social, and environmental concerns, offering significant insights into contemporary architecture’s evolving professional and societal role through the lens of the Latvian Architecture Award.

Published: December 2024

The asesmen kemampuan minimum or Minimum Competency Assessment (MCA) is a new form of assessment in Indonesia implemented in several schools since 2021. Implementing MCA aims to prepare students for the skills needed in the 21st century. However, the availability of MCA-type mathematics problems is still limited for learning in printed books and online-based media. This research aims to produce MCA-like mathematics problems using financial contexts in algebra that are valid, practical, and effective. This research employed a development study consisting of six stages: preliminary, self-evaluation, expert reviews, one-to-one, small group, and field test stages. The test subjects were 85 students of grade 11 in one vocational high school in Sigli, Aceh, Indonesia. The research instruments were a validation sheet, an interview sheet, and a practicality and effectiveness test questionnaire. This research has produced 21 MCA-type items with a financial context in algebra that is valid, practical, and effective. Therefore, the generated mathematics problems can be used by teachers to improve students' numeracy and financial literacy skills.

Limbah tandan kosong kelapa sawit (TKKS) merupakan limbah padat yang dihasilkan dari sisa pengolahan di pabrik kelapa sawit. Seiring dengan bertambahnya luas lahan kebun kelapa sawit menyebabkan jumlah limbah TKKS semakin meningkat. Meningkatnya jumlah limbah ini secara terus menerus akan menyebabkan terjadinya pencemaran lingkungan, seperti polusi udara akibat bau yang tidak sedap. Akan tetapi, limbah TKKS dapat memberikan manfaat jika diolah dengan baik. Salah satu cara yang bisa dilakukan dalam pengolahan limbah TKKS adalah dengan merubah limbah tersebut menjadi biochar. Biochar dari TKKS dapat dimanfaatkan untuk memperbaiki kualitas lahan di kebun kelapa sawit rakyat. Kegiatan pengabdian masyarakat yang terintegrasi dengan mahasiswa Kuliah Kerja Nyata (KKN) ini bertujuan untuk memberikan pelatihan cara membuat biochar dari limbah TKKS kepada kelompok tani Semoga Jaya yang berada di Kenagarian Koto Beringin Kecamatan Tiumang Kabupaten Dharmasraya. Melalui pelatihan ini, diharapkan petani dapat mengelola limbah tersebut secara mandiri dan berkelanjutan, serta memanfaatkannya dengan baik untuk perbaikan kualitas lahan kelapa sawit rakyat. Kegiatan pelatihan diikuti dengan antusias oleh petani, hal ini dapat dilihat dari banyaknya pertanyaan yang muncul selama kegiatan pelatihan berlangsung. Hal ini menunjukkan bahwa para petani sangat tertarik untuk menerima ilmu yang disampaikan, dan ingin mencoba  dan mengaplikasikan pembuatan biochar ini pada kebun kelapa sawitnya masing-masing.
Differences in the Transition to Adulthood of University Students before and after the Pandemic
Authors: Guerra Santana Mónica , Artiles-Rodríguez Josue , Rodríguez-Pulido Josefa
Published: December 2024

Introduction.  The difference in the opinions of two groups of university students on the transition to adulthood and on certain educational aspects over a period of 8 years was analysed, one before and the other after the Sars-Cov 2 pandemic.
Method.  The questionnaire was applied based on the perception that university students have on the transition to adulthood (Guerra Santana, 2022), adapted from Arnett's Transition to Adulthood Scale (2001). It was answered by 780 students from a Spanish university, 453 of whom were educated before the pandemic and 327 of whom are currently studying. A quantitative methodology with a descriptive and comparative design was used.
Results.  The results indicate that, of the three factors that make up the empirical structure of the questionnaire, there are significant differences (99.95% CI) in the ability to create a family and attend to its needs, and in personal responsibility and maturity according to the student's group of belonging (pre-pandemic/post-pandemic) and age. On the other hand, no differences were found in the variables gender and field of knowledge.
Discussion and Conclusion.  In conclusion, the post-pandemic group of students have a more favourable perception of the transition to adulthood than those who studied before the pandemic.
Propiedades psicométricas y validación de la escala GADA para medir el Grado de Conciencia de Género en Adolescentes
Authors: Muñoz-García Isabel María , Alcántara-Manzanares Jorge , Medina Quintana Silvia
Published: December 2024

Introduction. In contrast to the wide range of possibilities for measuring gender awareness, there are fewer validated instruments with a broad, global and holistic vision in relation to gender and far from the adult-centred perspective. For this reason, a scale that measures the Degree of Gender Awareness in Adolescents is created, validated and developed: GADA (Gender Awareness Degree in Adolescents).
Method.  GADA has been developed after a pilot test and an expert judgment process and has been validated through factor analysis based on the latest statistical advances in the social sciences following post-Little Jiffy psychometrics. The FACTOR program has been used to obtain two factors, the personal and the social, with a constructionist vision of gender. The population belongs to 10 secondary education institutes in Córdoba (Spain) with a sample of 510 students (55% women and 45% men) between 14 and 16 years old.
Results. The scale shows high reliability and internal consistency, with Cronbach's Omega and alpha coefficient being .84 and optimal goodness adjustments (GFI =.992, CFI =.992, NNFI =.987, RMSEA [95% CI] =.032 (.0101-.0378) and RMCR =.0404). Furthermore, sex is an invariant variable.
Discussion or Conclusion: The GADA Scale is a reliable instrument with a global and comprehensive vision of gender and feminism with relevant issues for adolescence that addresses gender awareness with educational applications.
Emotional Intelligence and Conflict Resolution in University Students: The Moderating effect of the Need for Power
Authors: Dissanayake Bimba , Valente Sabina , Kodagoda Thilakshi
Published: December 2024

Introduction.  Emotional intelligence and motivation are considered antecedent variables in conflict. Studies show the isolated impact of emotional intelligence on conflict and motivation on conflict, but the integrative impact of emotional intelligence and the need for power on the selection of a conflict resolution style is unknown. Consequently, this study aims to fill this gap and examine how the need for power moderates the relationship between emotional intelligence and the dominant conflict resolution style.
Method.  A questionnaire-based survey was conducted with 388 Sri Lankan university students (Mage=22). It used simple and moderated multiple regression analysis to evaluate the moderating impact and level of interaction of the need for power on the nexus between emotional intelligence and dominating styles.
Results.  The results show a positive correlation between emotional intelligence and dominance style. They also provide new evidence on how the need for power moderates the relationship between emotional intelligence and dominance style for conflict resolution in university students.
Discussion and Conclusion.  The study provides new evidence about how the need for power moderates the relationship between emotional intelligence and dominating conflict resolution style in university students.
Didáctica del género discursivo oral para la educación inicial
Authors: Hernández Rincón Marleny , Gutiérrez Ríos Mirta Yolima
Published: December 2024

The study of the oral discursive genre has traditionally occupied a relevant place in teaching orality as a mechanistic expressive ability that does not do justice to the complexity of the real practices of oral interaction in the fields of use. Therefore, this text aims to seek new meanings of the theoretical and pedagogical understandings of oral interaction within the framework of Emergency Remote Teaching (ERE) and to propose didactics of the oral discursive genre for Initial Education from the reflexivity of teachers organized in mixed research communities. The methodological perspective adheres to the principles of action research, in which the production of collective knowledge is promoted. The findings suggest the symbiosis of time-space in the online classroom as a constituent scenario of the participants that configures a framework of dialogic relationships from three chronotopes: intention, meaning, and appropriation, which enable significant forms of communication where the oraldiscursive genre is considered as a way of organizing different pedagogical proposals by venturing into six itineraries of reflection in order to make it visible in the school curriculum.
Las construcciones de estilo directo en el discurso oral conversacional y su mímesis en los textos teatrales. Análisis comparativo a partir de un estudio de corpus
Authors: Estévez Rionegro Noelia
Published: December 2024

The present work gathers the qualitative and quantitative results of the comparative analysis between direct speech procedures in oral and dramatic discourse, empirically grounded in a corpus of real language. Although dramatic texts originate in the written mode of language, their purpose as a work destined for representation is reflected in the mimesis that authors make of oral language, both in character interactions and speeches as well as in their reproduction. This is evidenced by the high degree of similarity revealed by the study between direct quotation in oral and theatrical discourse in three fundamental aspects: the notable predominance of constructions with preposing of the introductory expression to the quotation, the marked tendency towards subject omission, and the presence of introductory verbs with the same semantic values (mainly, verbal process, and secondarily, thinking and contextual processes). However, despite the high degree of coincidence, direct speech constructions in theatrical discourse also occasionally present nuances and exceptions that recall the written nature of the genre.

The author used the following research methods: analysis, synthesis, description, comparison. It was necessary to study the historical experience of the organization of the prison service of the Russian Empire at the end of the 19th century in order to understand the main strengths and weaknesses of these measures to ensure the safety and security of persons in custody. It was concluded that the activities in penitentiaries depended on the situation in the country from the point of view of the law enforcement legislation. Therefore, every penitantiary employee must remember that tricks of the persons held in custody will be circumvent if made by competent preventive actions. Therefore, it is necessary to study the historical experience of prison guards in order to adopt positive aspects and exclude violations of the conditions of service of modern places of detention of suspects and accused of committing a crime.
Load Limiting Control for Component Life Extension

Published: December 2024

This paper presents the development of a novel life-extending control scheme for critical helicopter components subjected to significant fatigue loading. The primary objective is to synthesize a more efficient and less conservative life-extending control scheme than those currently available in the literature. The proposed load limiting control (LLC) scheme is a viable solution that addresses several issues that current life-extending control schemes suffer from, such as the neglect of fatigue damage induced by the harmonic component of loads and the inability to distinguish between aggressive and nonaggressive maneuvers. The proposed LLC scheme treats desired harmonic load limits as limit boundaries and recasts the problem of load limiting as a vehicle limit by computing a control margin (CM) using a limit detection and avoidance module. The computed CM is used as a cue to the pilot. The limit detection and avoidance module comprises an optimization algorithm, a model predictive controller, and a computationally simple onboard dynamical model. Simulations were conducted to demonstrate the effectiveness of the LLC scheme in limiting harmonic pitch link loads during flight. One significant outcome is that, with sufficient training, the pilot can skillfully track the cue within 0.5 s of initiating the tracking task.

Published: December 2024

Space computing has unique considerations that limit the achievable performance capabilities of onboard processing. Due to these limiting factors, current state-of-the-art devices for space computing are unable to meet the performance and energy-efficiency requirements for next-generation communication, navigation, and artificial-intelligence applications planned for future science and exploration missions. Space designers are transitioning to domain-specific architectures with specialized acceleration hardware, such as the AMD-Xilinx Versal Adaptive System-on-Chip, to address these issues. This heterogeneous platform provides developers with several processing subsystems that allow for mission-specific customization, including scalar processing units, programmable logic, and AI engine technology enabled by vector processing units. In this paper, performance, power-consumption, energy-efficiency, and resource-utilization tradeoffs for each Versal processing subsystem are evaluated by benchmarking a suite of representative next-generation artificial-intelligence and communication applications for space. This evaluation yields a design tradespace that mission designers can use to determine the Pareto-optimal solution for an artificial-intelligence or communication application based on performance requirements and power constraints. Additionally, this evaluation demonstrates that the performance and energy-efficiency benefits of the AI engines for space computing are significant; however, they are curtailed by considerably more power consumption than the scalar processors and programmable logic.
High-Dimensional Bayesian Optimization Using Both Random and Supervised Embeddings

Published: December 2024

Bayesian optimization (BO) is one of the most powerful strategies to solve computationally expensive-to-evaluate blackbox optimization problems. However, BO methods are conventionally used for optimization problems of small dimension because of the curse of dimensionality. In this paper, a high-dimensionnal optimization method incorporating linear embedding subspaces of small dimension is proposed to efficiently perform the optimization. An adaptive learning strategy for these linear embeddings is carried out in conjunction with the optimization. The resulting BO method, named efficient global optimization coupled with random and supervised embedding (EGORSE), combines in an adaptive way both random and supervised linear embeddings. EGORSE has been compared to state-of-the-art algorithms and tested on academic examples with a number of design variables ranging from 10 to 600. The obtained results show the high potential of EGORSE to solve high-dimensional blackbox optimization problems, in terms of both CPU time and the limited number of calls to the expensive blackbox simulation.
Variable Emissivity Materials for Thermal Radiators: Methods for Characterizing Thermochromic Infrared Surfaces

Published: December 2024

Thermochromic infrared surfaces have temperature-dependent emissivity spectra that enable radiators to passively respond to changes in the thermal environment. For spacecraft thermal-control applications, these surfaces transition between a high and low thermal emissivity to radiate heat when hot and retain heat when cold. This enhanced temperature-regulation functionality is derived from the intrinsic temperature-dependence of the thermochromic material but introduces complications in thermo-optic characterization and thermal system models. Variable emissivity materials (VEMs) necessitate a new set of thermo-optic characteristics to comprehensively describe the thermal emissivity as a function of both the instantaneous surface temperature and its time history. This research examines the methods of characterizing the thermal emissivity of VEMs using both spectroscopy (an indirect measurement) and radiative calorimetry (a direct measurement). The data are fit to a reduced-order logistic model that captures the primary design features, including the asymptotic emissivity levels and the transition temperature, as well as nonidealities such as transition rates and hysteresis. Together, these tools guide the design of novel VEMs, introduce a standardized set of material descriptors, and enable the representation of VEMs in thermal system models.
Viaje a la desaparición: los cuadros de San Zoilo de Carrión
Authors:   Universidad de Valladolid (España), Sánchez Barahona María Teresa
Published: December 2024

The confiscations carried out in the nineteenth century led to the nationalization of numer- ous of ecclesiastical properties. From that point onwards, the challenges in protecting and safeguarding these assets necessitated innovative, albeit not always successful, measures. This article aims to show the journey of several particularly significant paintings originating from the monastery of San Zoilo de Carrión until their definitive disappearance. We will track their trajectory and analyze the decisions made by those responsible for their care in the Provincial Commission of Monuments of Palencia, in order to understand the difficulties they faced.
El escultor malagueño Jerónimo Gómez (1630-1719). Estado de la cuestión y nuevas atribuciones
Authors:   Universidad de Málaga(España), Flores Matute Francisco Jesús
Published: December 2024

Jerónimo Gómez is a sculptor whose artistic production has been built in pieces and times viewed obliquely by historiography, partly due to the destruction of his possible work preserved in the province of Málaga. This destruction likely began in the 19th century (during events such as the War of Independence and various confiscations) and continued during the anticlerical riots of 1931 and 1936. As a result, we have been deprived of a comprehensive understanding of his documented artistic corpus, as well as what remains to be documented, given the disappearance of parish archives. Additionally, the modest quality exhibited by the works attributed to him over time, while technically competent and robust in form, has often lacked sufficient expressive force. Nevertheless, in his day, Gómez and his atelier enjoyed a solid reputation in the city, the province and beyond, maintaining a stable clientele and benefiting from both civil and ecclesiastical institutional support. The aim of this article is to compile all of Gómez’s documented and attributed works to date, providing a modest catalog of the artist and his atelier. This research also seeks to uncover unpublished works that, due to their geographical location far from the main focus from which they must have come the vast majority of pieces from the aforementioned workshop –that is, Malaga– have not been taken into account as probable creations of Gómez.

Published: December 2024

This study aims to explore the activities and outcomes of weight management programs from the practitioner’s perspective. A qualitative approach was employed in this study, which included in-depth interview and document analysis. Ten practitioners with experience and diverse backgrounds were interviewed using a semi-structured questionnaire. Concurrently, document analsis was utilised by examining the printed and online documents provided by the practitioners. The verbatim transcripts and documents were analysed thematically by using Nvivo 12 software. Thematic analysis revealed four themes that represent the key activities generally executed in weight management programs: 1) nutrition and physical activities; 2) screening and monitoring; 3) motivation and spirituality, and 4) task and challenge. This study found two uncommon activities rarely mentioned in previous programs: spirituality and challenge. Practitioners also highlighted activities in the program had positive effects on participants, including: 1) demonstrating positive selfchange; 2) influencing their surroundings, and 3) cost savings. Notably, combining these activities could lead to improved outcomes, particularly when participants are fully committed to the program. In conclusion, this study identified four primary activities and three positive outcomes from  the weight management programs. From the practitioner’s perspective, integrating these activities was seen as a good strategy to achieve an optimal result. Hence, it is recommended that future practitioners to incorporate and diversify the activities to enhance their effectiveness.
Heel Pain After Landing in a Soccer Player: A Case of Abductor Hallucis Strain
Authors: Karaçoban Levend
Published: December 2024

BACKGROUND: Plantar heel pain is often attributed to the plantar fascia and calcaneal fat pad, both for athletes and sedentary individuals. Another potential cause of heel pain is abductor hallucis (AbdH) muscle strain.

CASE PRESENTATION: The athlete jumped for a header during a league game, and after he landed on his left foot with a dorsiflexed ankle, he felt sudden pain and was not able to continue. The initial physical examination has overlapping features of AbdH and plantar fascia injury. Detailed physical examinations and radiological images revealed AbdH strain.

OUTCOME AND FOLLOW-UP: Immobilization and cold therapy were started as the first line of treatment, then stretching and gradual loading were added. The patient was able to play after 3 weeks.

DISCUSSION: AbdH strain is a rare cause of heel pain, but it should be kept in mind, especially when a suspected mechanism of injury occurs. JOSPT Cases 2025;5(1):71-73. Epub 2 December 2024. doi:10.2519/josptcases.2024.0044
