Authors: Aldila Larasati , Noryatin Yeni , Arvian Elsan
Published: September 2022

Background: This research studies about directive speech acts made by the main character T’Challa in Black Panther movie.

Purpose: The aims of this study are to explicate the applications of the directive speech act, to explain the types of directive speech act of the utterances that used, and to find out the most frequent types of directive speech act of the utterances that used by the main character T’Challa in Black Panther movie.

Design and methods: To achieve the aims of the study, the writer uses Kreidler’s theory in analyzing the data. This study is a qualitative research by employing descriptive method which the writer interprets of utterances that contain the types of directive speech acts in this movie.

Results: The result of study showed that 39 utterances of directive of speech acts were successfully identified that made by the main character T’Challa. In this study, the writer found that the main character T’Challa in this movie uses all the types of directive speech act, such as, command, request, and suggestion. There are command 26 data or 66,6%, request 8 data or 20,5%, and suggestion 5 data or 12,9%. So it can be concluded that the dominant directive is command, because this movie contained many command of the main character T’Challa as the king in the movie who has highest authority and also has a degree of control the other characters. Command is to give the strong order, request to ask the hearer to do or refrain from doing something, and suggestion is to give the opinion to the hearer.

Published: September 2022

O objetivo deste estudo é verificar se uma rede hoteleira e indústria salineira do Rio Grande do Norte internalizam em sua responsabilidade social corporativa as ferramentas da contabilidade ambiental. Trata-se de uma pesquisa descritiva, um estudo de caso. Como resultados observou-se o uso de matérias primas renováveis. A reciclagem foi incorporada por uma das empresas estudadas, e outra embora não use o sentido do termo, entrega sacos de embalagem para empresa terceirizada. O orçamento foi identificado como ferramenta de gestão nas duas empresas, mas sem a segregação daquilo que é concernente ao meio ambiente dos demais elementos patrimoniais. O que chamou a atenção é a identificação do passivo ambiental. Como conclusões, O fato tem da coleta de dados ter sido entre 2014 até 2020 não apresentou mudanças acentuadas nas posturas corporativas que mereçam destaque, daí a contribuição de que o lapso de tempo deva ser refeito diante do novo Comitê Brasileiro de Pronunciamentos de Sustentabilidade que certamente irá padronizar a divulgação das informações sobre responsabilidade social corporativa das empresas brasileiras à luz do que serão os relatórios mundiais através do International Sustainability Standards Board.

EVALUATING COMPLIANCE OF CONSTRUCTION SITE SAFETY RULES AS A COMPLIMENTARY TOOL TO PROJECT COMPLETION WITHIN BUDGET LIMIT
Authors: INNOCENT CHUKWUEMEKA ENEOGWE , MICHAEL UDUMA OKOR
Published: September 2022

The Systematic flow process necessary for a successful delivery of building project requires the collective wisdom of the construction team. Thus making construction site a very busy and dangerous place to work in due to the manifold of work items going on simultaneously. Owing to the risk inherent in construction sites, this study focuses on the evaluation of compliance to safety rules on construction sites that can serve as complementary tools in completing a building project within the budget. A project that is not completed on or within the budget limit is an indication of poor quality administration of construction process. The study adopts the focus group techniques to observe that inadequate safety protocols can increase insurance costs as a result of worker’s compensation claims and law suits due to construction site accidents. The following were among the very quality result oriented construction sites safety rules. Wearing of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) like the Hi-vis Vest, ear muffs and hard hats at all times, keeping a tidy site and prompt report of defective equipment. Not only does safety on construction sites protect workers, it also keeps the public safe and consequently helps to maintain the construction cost within approved limit.
ZELLNER’S G-PRIORS IN BAYESIAN MODEL AVERAGING OF LARGE MODEL SPACE USING MARKOV CHAIN MONTE CARLO MODEL COMPOSITION APPLICABLE UNDER BAYESIAN MODEL SAMPLING
Authors: K OGUNDEJI R , I. A. DELEKE
Published: September 2022

Applied researchers are frequently faced with the issue of model uncertainty in situations where many possible models exist. For large model space in regression analysis, the challenge has always been how to select a single model among competing large model space when making inferences. Bayesian Model Averaging (BMA) is a technique designed to help account for the uncertainty inherent in the model selection process. Informative prior distributions related to a natural conjugate prior specification are investigated under a limited choice of a single scalar hyper parameter called g-prior which corresponds to the degree of prior uncertainty on regression coefficients. This study focuses on situations with extremely large model space made up of large set of regressors generated by a small number of observations, when estimating model parameters. A set of g-prior structures in literature are considered with a view to identify an improved g-prior specification for regression coefficients in Bayesian Model Averaging. The study demonstrates the sensitivity of posterior results to the choice of g-prior on simulated dataand real-life data. Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) are used to generate a process which moves through large model space to adequately identify the high posterior probability models using the Markov Chain Monte Carlo Model Composition (MC3), a method applicable under Bayesian Model Sampling (BMS). To assess the sensitivity and predictive ability of the g-priors,predictive criteria like Log Predictive Score (LPS) and Log Marginal Likelihood (LML) are employed. The results reveal a g-prior structure that exhibited equally competitive and consistent predictive ability among considered g-prior structures in literature.

The effect of X-ray radiation was examined on the nutritional content of Capsicum annuum L. (Pepper seeds Yolo wonder 254 F1). The seeds were subjected to three different doses of X-ray irradiation (3MGy, 6MGy and 9MGy) to observe variation in the nutritional content of the F2 fruit across the treatments and control. The study aimed at using x-ray irradiation to stimulatevariation resulting in improved nutritional content of C. annuum. Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with three replications was laid in a field experiment at research farm of Agronomy Department, Faculty of Agriculture, Federal University of Kashere, Gombe State, during the 2021 raining season. Spectrophotometric method was employed using U-V visible Spectrophotometer, as well as Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry (AAS) was used to determined mineral content. Proximate compositions were also analyzed using standard method. Data obtained were subjected to Analysis of Variance and DMRT at p <0.05 level of significance. Variation in the concentration of vitamins A, B2, B6, B12, C and ß-Carotene were observed. Vitamin C at the control has 142643 ± 1.00d as the highest concentration, while vitamin B12 has 0.002 ± 1.00a as the lowest concentration across all the treatments. Minerals examined were Mg, Ca, K, Fe and PO42- with K having 181.00 ± 5.66c concentration at zero treatment as the highest and Phosphate recorded 0.04 ± 0.04a at 3MGy as the lowest. Phytochemical has Oxalate with0.89 ± 0.31b recorded at zero exposure and Phytate 0.01 ± 0.00a at 3MGy recorded as highest and lowest concentration respectively. In proximate compositions, Carbohydrates was obtained with 60.67 ± 1.39c at 9.0MGy exposure as the highest concentration, whereas ether extract has 0.72 ± 0.00a at 3MGy has the lowest concentration among all other compositions. The findings revealed that relative increase in the nutritional content of pepper across the treatments were 0MGy exposure to X-ray irradiation produce higher concentration suggesting a possible recovery of useful variant from lower exposure. Eventually, results of this study, revealed that X-ray irradiation has random effect on the nutritional content of pepper.

The study investigated the modulatory activity of resveratrol and environmental enrichment (EE) on behavioural and neuroinflammatory responses of male mice treated with aluminium chloride (AlCl3). Sixty-three Swiss albino mice were divided into nine groups of seven animals each as follows; 0.2 mL normal saline/kg (control), 0.2 mL Carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC)/kg,Resveratrol (200 mg/kg), CMC 0.2 mL/kg + EE, AlCl3 (50 mg/kg), Resveratrol (200 mg/kg) + EE, AlCl3 (50 mg/kg) + Resveratrol (200 mg/kg), AlCl3 (50 mg/kg) + EE, and AlCl3 (50 mg/kg) + Resveratrol (200 mg/kg) + EE, respectively. All treatments were given oral and lasted for 8 weeks. Assessments of behaviour were carried out at 0, 4 and 8 weeks after treatments, followedby biochemical analyses. AlCl3 significantly (p < 0.05) induced motor endurance deficits at the fourth week which was improved by Resveratrol and EE. The concentration of NF-Kβ significantly decreased in AlCl3 when compared to AlCl3 + EE + resveratrol treated group. Furthermore, the concentration of TNF-α was significantly decreased in Resveratrol, and AlCl3 + EE treated groups, when compared to AlCl3 + EE + Resveratrol treatment group. AlCl3 induced motor function deficits, which was improved by Resveratrol and EE. Resveratrol treatment alone and EE + AlCl3 decreased biomarkers of neuro-inflammation.

Published: September 2022

Cowpea anthracnose caused by Colletotrichum lindemuthianum causes about 75 % yield reduction in Cowpea production in Nigeria. Trichoderma harzianum is a bioagent in controlling fungal diseases. Effect of T. harzianum was investigated on growth, disease incidence and yield of selected varieties of Cowpea infested with C. lindemuthianum. Four improved Cowpea varieties were selected IT07K-292-10, IT07K-318-33, IT98K-205-08, IT99K-573-11 and a local variety DANMISRA. Pure isolate of Colletotrichum lindemuthianum and Trichoderma harzianum were each cultured on PDA. Four concentrations of T. harzianum suspensions were prepared at 1x102 conidia/ml, 1x104 conidia/ml, 1x106 conidia/ml, 1x108 conidia/ml and control . Cowpea seedlings were artificially infested with 1x107conidia/ml of C. lindemuthianum at 22 days after sowing. The experiment was arranged in a complete randomized design (CRD) with three replications. The result indicated that the infested variety IT99K-573-11 treated with T. harzianum at 1x108 conidia/ml was insusceptible and had significantly (p<0.05) increased biomass, number of seeds and low disease incidence (19.1 %) while increase in chlorophyll content, seed number and decreased in the anthracnose incidence was observed at 1x108 conidia/ml concentration. The cultivar IT99K-573-11 appeared tolerant hence is recommendedto farmer for cultivation in C. lindemuthianum infested areas.

Authors: Ferreira Guttenberg Sergistótanes Santos , Alencar Junio Moreira de , Moura Maria Jaqueline Sousa de
Published: September 2022

A presente pesquisa objetivou investigar potencialidades da metodologia Aprendizagem Baseada em Problemas (PBL) no ensino de Cálculo Numérico (CN). Para tanto, realizou-se uma intervenção pedagógica no primeiro semestre de 2021, em uma turma de dez alunos do curso de Licenciatura em Matemática do Instituto Federal de Educação, Ciência e Tecnologia do Ceará (IFCE) – campus Juazeiro do Norte, que estavam cursando a disciplina CN.  A intervenção ocorreu em três encontros semanais de duas horas cada em caráter remoto, devido a pandemia do COVID-19, por meio da plataforma Google Meet. Os alunos envolvidos na pesquisa foram instigados a vivenciarem os ciclos da metodologia PBL através de situações problemas que poderiam ser modeladas através de ferramentas do CN, a saber, o Método de Gauss-Seidel e o Método de Newton. A partir das observações dos pesquisadores e questionários aplicados ao longo da intervenção, observou-se que apesar dos alunos não perceberem com clareza cada ciclo da metodologia PBL ao resolverem os problemas propostos na pesquisa, houve a compreensão da importância dessa metodologia no aprendizado e o principal benefício foi a produção interativa do conhecimento, mesmo havendo as limitações do ensino remoto emergencial. Além disso, houve por parte dos alunos uma evolução no entendimento do que é resolução de problemas. Ademais, constatou-se que a maior dificuldade dos alunos frente a resolução de problemas era a interpretação e não a manipulação matemática. A partir dos achados desse trabalho, percebeu-se que o contato com a metodologia PBL agregou para aos alunos não apenas no aprendizado dos conteúdos do CN, mas também para a formação deles enquanto professores em formação inicial, reflexivos dos impactos da sua práxis docente futura.

Published: September 2022

O ensino de matemática tem passado por diversas transformações dentro do movimento da Educação Matemática na tentativa de superação do modelo tradicional de ensino. A Teoria da Objetivação (TO), se apresenta como uma proposta de melhoria no ensino-aprendizagem da matemática baseada nas formas de colaboração humana, no labor conjunto e em uma ética comunitária. Objetivamos apresentar a utilização da TO nos contextos de formação docente, de ensino-aprendizagem da matemática, subsidiados pelas TIC. Para tanto, apresentamos uma revisão integrativa de literatura, nas Plataformas Google Acadêmico, Capes e Scielo, tendo como recorte temporal os anos de 2020 a 2022, período com abissais desafios para a prática pedagógica, provocados pela pandemia do COVID19. Utilizamos o Prisma Flow para efeitos de identificação, triagem e elegibilidade dos trabalhos selecionados. Destacamos alguns resultados sobre a melhoria do engajamento dos estudantes em atividades síncronas online e propostas de labor conjunto, via remoto, tendo a TO como suporte teórico-metodológico. Concluímos que a TO vem se consolidando como uma teoria viável para um ensino-aprendizagem mais significativo, tanto em nível nacional como internacional, demonstrando seu potencial para o desenvolvimento de sujeitos ativos, críticos, reflexivos, éticos e responsáveis. Entretanto, no que se refere às TIC, percebemos um número baixo de trabalhos que abordam o processo de formação continuada de professores de matemática, sobretudo dos anos iniciais do ensino fundamental.
Der Drittauskunftsanspruch bei Persönlichkeitsrechtsverletzungen im Internet
Authors: Berger Julia
Published: September 2022

Those affected are often helpless in the face of violations of personal rights on the Internet: the infringing content is sometimes deleted, but the person affected cannot easily obtain information about the identi-ty of the user. For a long time, the general right to information failed due to a data protection law authorization norm. There was only the (unsuccessful) possibility of taking criminal action against unknown persons in order to obtain information. As a result, protection under civil law simply ran empty for years. The legislature's interim improvements can do little to change this. In order to protect the constitutionally guaranteed right of personality, an independent civil right to third-party information must be introduced.
The Transfer of Conflict-Related Detainees
Authors: Kashgar Maral
Published: September 2022

As part of their participation in multinational military operations, troop-contributing states are required to take detainees. But what if the State does not want to keep the detainee in its own custody? Under what conditions is it possible to transfer detainees to another State? Despite their primary applicability in armed conflicts, the international humanitarian law rules on detainee transfers have so far received little attention in comparison to the human rights law prohibition of refoulement. By commenting on the transfer rules of the Geneva Conventions of 1949, this work fills a gap in legal literature.
Die Beziehungen zwischen Iran und Saudi-Arabien

Published: September 2022

The "Islamic Revolution" (1979) was a turning point for the political situation in the Middle East. Shiite Iran and Sunni Saudi Arabia became adversaries whose enmity continues to shape the region today. Many conflicts in the Middle East are influenced by Tehran-Riyadh relations.

This book examines Iran-Saudi Arabia relations based on Persian and Arabic sources. The focus primarily lies on an analysis of both actors' state propoganda discourses and the enemy images constructed therein. Social science theory is used to explain the role of state propaganda for the tension between symbolic and real enmity.

Verantwortungsbewusste Mitarbeiterführung

In Zeiten permanenten Arbeits- und Fachkräftemangels wird nachhaltige Mitarbeiterbindung zum Erfolgsfaktor – selbst wenn der eine oder andere Mitarbeiter nicht zur pflegeleichten Sorte Mensch gehört. Sein Verhalten kann den Vorgesetzten in den Wahnsinn treiben, Kollegen aufwiegeln und das Betriebsklima negativ beeinflussen. Leidet dann noch die Arbeitsleistung oder sogar der Ruf des Unternehmens, besteht akuter Handlungsbedarf.

Doch statt arbeitsrechtliche Schritte einzuleiten und mit der Kündigung zu liebäugeln, gibt es zumeist bessere Mittel und Wege, schwierige Mitarbeiter in ihre Schranken zu weisen. Denn hinter dem kritikwürdigen Verhalten verbirgt sich oft Potenzial, das es zu entdecken und zu nutzen gilt. Darin liegt die besondere Herausforderung an den Vorgesetzten. Sein Ziel ist es, Querulanten und andere Sorgenkinder neu zu motivieren und auf den richtigen Weg zu führen, um ihre Arbeitsleistung zu steigern und die Mitarbeiterzufriedenheit zu verbessern.

Erfolgsautor Hans-Jürgen Kratz liefert in seinem neuesten Buch Mensch Mitarbeiter! Empfehlungen und Handlungsanstöße für Führungskräfte, um schwierige Mitarbeiter zum Wohle aller Beteiligten zu zähmen. Die Auflösung des Arbeitsverhältnisses bleibt dann auf gravierende Ausnahmefälle beschränkt.
A Defense of Robert Nozick’s Theory of the Meaning of Life
Authors: Cherny Joseph ,   Philosophy Documentation Center
Published: September 2022

Robert Nozick argues that the problem of the meaning of life is caused by limitations, especially death. Consequently, attaining meaning in one’s life requires connecting to something larger than oneself. Since anything can be conceived of as meaningless from a wide enough perspective, meaning will ultimately depend on connecting to “the unlimited.” Although initially plausible, this theory of meaning is vulnerable to a number of objections. One is that “the unlimited” is an incoherent notion due to the necessity that it include ideas that are contradictory to each other, and another is that the meaning of life ought to include internal goods, which Nozick ignores. I will defend Nozick’s theory against these two objections by bringing in elements of the thought of Aristotle and St. Thomas.
Knowing Your Mind by Making Up Your Mind Without Changing Your Mind, Too Much
Authors: Doyle Casey ,   Philosophy Documentation Center
Published: September 2022

At the center of much contemporary work on self-knowledge of our attitudes is a debate between Agentialists and Empiricists. Empiricists hold that first-person knowledge of one’s own attitudes possesses a broadly empirical basis, such as observation or inference. Agentialists insist that an account of self-knowledge must make sense of the intimate connection between knowing one’s attitudes and actively forming them in response to reasons. But it is plausible to suppose that a psychologically realistic account of self-knowledge will emphasize both active and passive elements. Focusing on the idea that we form self-ascriptions of belief on the basis of active deliberation, this paper outlines such a middle ground position.

Neste artigo, buscou-se, com base em observações das rotinas produtivas da Diretoria de Comunicação Social da Universidade Federal de Alfenas (Dicom/UNIFAL-MG), produzir a primeira edição de um manual com dicas de gramática, estilo e formatação, a fim de manter padronizadas as pautas publicadas no Portal Institucional. Para tanto, utilizou-se o procedimento de pesquisa bibliográfica de obras na área de Comunicação Social e de pesquisa documental de normativas que regulam a Dicom, como a Linha Editorial e o Regimento Interno do setor. A produção do manual levou em conta as contribuições da Semiótica Social Multimodal, precisamente os significados composicionais (KRESS; VAN LEEUWEN, 1996; CARVALHO, 2012) e os sistemas paramétricos das cores (KRESS; VAN LEEUWEN, 2002; CARVALHO, 2012) e da tipografia (VAN LEEUWEN, 2006; CARVALHO, 2012). Como resultado, constatou-se a relevância da aplicação dos conceitos estudados para a elaboração de um produto prático e objetivo, bem como coerente e integrado visualmente, em termos de design editorial e gráfico.

Introduction and Objective Sleep disorder leads to several mental, physical, and behavioral complications. Through continuous care model, it is possible to achieve an efficient recognition of the problems of these patients and allow them to participate in solving their health issues. The effects of continuous care model on sleep quality in postmenopausal women were examined.

Material and Methods Totally, 110 postmenopausal women visiting health center in Kermanshah, Iran took part in this clinical trial. The participants were selected between May 2017 and September 2017. The participants were allocated to control and experimental groups randomly each with 55 members. The normal cares were provided to the control group, while the experimental groups took part in group consultation sessions (once every week, four session each 60-90min). Quality of sleep was examined based on Pittsburg sleep quality index before the intervention, immediately after the intervention, and a month flowing the completion of the intervention. For data analyzing, Friedman’s test, Mann-Whitney test, and chi-square test were used in SPSS.

Results A significant difference was found in the mean scores of the quality of sleep in the experimental group in three measurements occasions in the study (p=0.001). Despite lack of any significant difference before the intervention between the two groups, there was a significant decrease in the sleep quality score in the experimental group one month after the completion of the intervention compared to the control group (p<0.05).

Conclusion The continuous care model improved the sleep quality in the postmenopausal women.

Published: September 2022

Introduction: There are 1.3 million refugee survivors of torture currently living in the United States today. While a substantial body of research has been growing on refugee mental health, few studies have focused on refugee resilience.
Objective: The current study focuses on a clinical sample of refugee survivors of torture to examine resilience-promoting factors, including community engagement, employment, English fluency, and psychological flexibility. Specifically, our study conducted moderation and mediation analyses to better understand how these resilience-promoting factors impact the torture-mental health relationship.
Results: Findings showed that torture severity was significantly and positively associated with all mental health symptoms, and psychological flexibility was significantly and negatively associated with all mental health symptoms, including PTSD, depression, and anxiety. Psychological flexibility also emerged as a significant mediator of the torture-mental health relationship, such that individuals with a history of greater torture severity reported higher mental health symptoms via lower psychological flexibility. Additionally, English fluency and employment, but not community engagement, showed significant negative correlations with mental health symptoms. However, resilience-promoting factors did not interact with torture severity to predict mental health symptoms.
Conclusion: The findings from this study identified variables that may have a meaningful impact on the mental health of refugee survivors of torture and provide insights and implications in treating this population from resilience-oriented clinical frameworks.

Investigation into the friction stir welding of thick section aluminium alloys
Authors:   , Brooks George Henry
Published: September 2022

Friction stir welding (FSW) is a solid-state joining technology with a growing range of applications, many of them in safety critical service. These include aircraft wing spars and fusion reactor components, where the heat input associated with thick section components and long-term service performance are becoming increasingly important. However, there is a limited pool of published knowledge relating to FSW of thick section materials due to the previous industrial demand surrounding thin section welding. The primary aim of this research project was to investigate the influence of FSW using three different techniques joining 50 mm thick aluminium alloys AA5083-H111, AA6082-T651 and AA7050-T6451. These techniques, namely Weld-Flip-Weld (WFW), Simultaneous Double Sided (SDS) and Supported Stationary Shoulder (SSS) each have a different thermo-mechanical weld input and effect on the weld zone which have yet to be extensively investigated and quantified. The stir zone experienced large deformation and recrystallization resulting in an equiaxed and refined grain structure. Grain size was influenced by energy input with a greater input resulting in a larger grain structure. In each weld, constituent particles were identified with common elements of iron and aluminium being observed in all cases. Further particles of Mg2Si were found in AA5083 and AA6082 welds while Silica was recorded welds of AA7050. Simultaneous Double Sided FSW was shown to be an effective process and arguably the most appropriate for a wide range of industrial uses. In non-heat treatable AA5083 the process not only used less energy but also retained higher strength (298 MPa) than Weld-Flip-Weld (277 MPa). The retention of strength in the SDS weld in heat-treatable alloy AA7050 (352 MPa) and was not as high as that in the WFW weld (419 MPa), x however, coupled with the other benefits, such as faster production time and lower energy input, can be considered the most industrially suitable variant for AA7050- T7451.
Disengaged youth? Exploring the lives of ‘hidden NEETs’ outside the benefits system
Authors:   , Devany Christopher
Published: September 2022

This thesis focuses on the lived experiences of young men who are not in education, employment or training (NEET) and do not access support from the welfare benefits system. They have been called ‘hidden' NEETs as they are statistically absent from labour market datasets and seldom access support from charities and other organisations. The broad aims of this thesis are to understand how they become disengaged and how they search for meaning outside work. The thesis diverges from the traditional approaches of youth studies through an enhanced theorisation of ‘hidden NEEThood’ by incorporating a set of relational theories. Bourdieu is used to understand how the dispositions and resources available to the participants shape their disengagement from education, employment, training and the welfare benefits system. The thesis also incorporates Goffman’s theory of stigma as well as theories of ‘masculinity’ and ‘intersectionality’ to explore the roles of gender and ethnicity. In-depth qualitative interviews were conducted with twenty-four young men living in Sheffield who were currently ‘hidden NEET’ or had recent experience of this status. The research presents several key findings. The literature review utilises Bourdieu's theory of ‘hysteresis’ to detail how long-term economic and policy processes have gradually created the conditions for ‘hidden NEEThood’. The empirical chapters also detail the overlooked proximity between homelessness and unemployment when ‘welfare conditionality’ and precarious labour markets intersect, in doing so, showing how very small amounts of social capital can result in significant differences to the lived experience of ‘hidden NEEThood’. Despite this, the thesis reveals how unemployment is not necessarily a state of marginalisation or disengagement as, for some, it can be a place of succour, particularly given experiences of 'poor work' in contemporary labour markets. A novel framework combines the concept of ontological security alongside the work of Bourdieu to explore the conditions and circumstances required for such young working-class men to feel ‘secure’ and find meaning in their lives. Finally, the thesis argues that NEEThood is not simply caused by poor employment prospects but is an outcome of wider socio-economic disadvantages.
Strategies to Reduce Heat Strain During Tennis Match-Play in Hot, Humid Conditions
Authors:   , Debney Matthew
Published: September 2022

Tennis match play often occurs in hot humid conditions increasing the risk of heat illness incidence, primarily due to increased body temperature and cardiovascular strain. Physiological and perceptual strain causes behavioural thermoregulation and can impair performance. Therefore, strategies which alleviate this heat strain could be beneficial from either a safety or performance perspective, or both. Little research has been conducted on the efficacy of heat alleviation strategies during tennis match play in hot conditions so it is unknown which strategies might be most beneficial. Consequently, the aim of this thesis was to assess the efficacy of acute heat alleviation strategies during simulated tennis match play in hot humid conditions and to better understand current practice and perceptions of heat alleviation strategies. The purpose of study 1 was to design and evaluate the test-retest reliability and validity of a tennis-specific treadmill protocol in temperate and hot, humid environmental conditions to allow confident interpretation of subsequent studies. Tennis players behaviourally increase the between�point rest length during tennis match play in hot humid conditions, therefore the aim of study 2 was to assess the thermal physiological and perceptual responses of this phenomenon. Increasing between-point rest from 20 to 30 seconds attenuated the rise in core temperature but had no effect on thermal perception. The aim of study 3 was to quantify the physiological and perceptual responses to internal, external, and combined internal and external cooling during simulated tennis match play in hot humid conditions. Internal cooling attenuated the rise in core temperature and lowers skin temperature and thermal sensation; external cooling only lowered skin temperature; combined cooling attenuated the rise in core temperature to the same extent but skin temperature and thermal perception to a greater extent than each strategy alone. The purpose of study 4 was to understand heat alleviation strategy current practice and perceptions of tennis players and support staff. Heat alleviation is perceived to be a useful tool for players competing in hot humid conditions and highlighted the importance of practicality. The findings from these studies improved the understanding of the physiological and perceptual responses to these strategies providing evidence that a longer between-point rest and internal cooling can slow the rate of rise in core temperature, and external cooling decreases the perception of the thermal sensation. All these strategies have the potential to enhance performance in hot humid conditions either physiologically or perceptually, in turn affecting autonomic and behavioural thermoregulation. The findings also have implications for future heat policy making and the application of heat alleviation in a hot humid environment.
