“Al partir”, Gertrudis Gómez de Avellaneda (con fondo de Heredia y de Martí)
Authors:   Tecnológico de Monterrey, México, Sánchez-Aguilera Osmar
Published: November 2023

Como buen clásico, así sea de una tradición literaria nacional, la historia de efectos del poema “Al partir”, de Gertrudis Gómez de Avellaneda Arteaga, sigue abierta, para escritores y para estudiosos. Este artículo se propone mostrarlo por tres vías diversas: el rastreo de su condición fundadora dentro de la poesía de su autora; una relectura más bien inmanente de ese texto; y la reinserción del mismo en la tradición poética decimonónica cubana concentrada en las figuras del romántico Heredia y del modernista-moderno Martí.
Hay afectos de tan delicada honestidad…
Authors:   Universidad Autónoma Metropolitana-Iztapalapa, Hernández Laura
Published: November 2023

En este trabajo se hace homenaje a Aralia López a partir de la relación intelectual que tuvieron ella y la autora, cuyo eje fue la figura de José Martí, en especial su convicción de que la política es una ética cuando se funda en el pensamiento poético. El propósito es mostrar, a través del trabajo académico de ambas, el tipo de diálogo que mantuvieron a lo largo del tiempo y que continúa, a pesar de que la homenajeada haya muerto, en virtud de que el lazo que las une es de orden espiritual.
Maestras imprescindibles: Aralia López González y Rosario Castellanos
Authors:   Universidad Autónoma Metropolitana-Iztapalapa, Domínguez Miranda Claudia Maribel
Published: November 2023

Aralia López González (1944-2018) fue una de las primeras investigadoras dedicadas a estudiar la literatura femenina como un corpus original y relevante para la literatura latinoamericana en su conjunto (1975). A partir de entonces empezó a publicar estudios en torno a la obra de Rosario Castellanos, autora de quien afirmó que era insuficientemente leída, pues nunca se había ponderado su condición de pensadora incómoda. Tomando en cuenta su aseveración, este artículo interpreta algunos ensayos de Castellanos enfocados en la educación escolar y familiar, ámbitos sociales sobre los que la escritora emitió una crítica implacable. A su vez, este análisis recupera los comentarios en los que Aralia López valoró, de manera ejemplar, el pensamiento ético y valiente de la ensayista.
El prólogo como fundamento del proyecto artístico de las "Coronas" de Rodolfo Usigli
Authors:   Universidad Autónoma del Estado de México. México, Posadas Torrijos Karina
Published: November 2023

Rodolfo Usigli es un escritor mexicano del siglo XX cuyos aportes a la dramaturgia de México incluyen diversidad de textos que expresan sus ideas sobre el teatro nacional. Algunos de esos escritos son los paratextos que acompañan a cada una de sus obras de teatro, y que funcionan como un canal adicional para profundizar en los temas abordados, aclarar las ideas susceptibles de ser rebatidas y defender la pertinencia de éstas. Con las Coronas, Usigli dialoga con la historia, así como con la posibilidad de utilizarla como un recurso dentro del quehacer dramático. Para ello se vale de cuatro paratextos que acompañan a la trilogía y los cuales actúan como prólogos y como textos programáticos. Dichos prólogos complementan y amplían la discusión que el dramaturgo establece en las obras, al conformar una parte importante de todo su proyecto artístico y establecer las directrices bajo las que lo construye.

Authors: Fernandes Inocencio Isabelle , Porto Nicoli Larissa , Vale Almeida Letícia , Carvalho de Lima Louise , Lucena Natália , Giorgetti Leandro
Published: November 2023

O topiramato é um medicamento antiepilético utilizado em crises de epilepsia parciais em adultos e crianças, atuando no sistema nervoso central (SNC) e trazendo equilíbrio às células neurológicas. O estudo tem aplicação em pacientes infantis, em que são demonstrados os efeitos benéficos da individualização, principalmente por se tratar de um fraco indutor enzimático, como será exposto no decorrer deste artigo.  O manuscrito tem o objetivo de demonstrar o comportamento do topiramato quando administrado de maneira individualizada no público infantil, tendo em vista a farmacogenética que visa entender a variabilidade genética de cada indivíduo no que diz respeito a medicamentos específicos, além de uma sucinta comparação com drogas antiepiléticas (DAEs) mais antigas e que ainda são utilizadas como medicamentos de primeira no tratamento de epilepsia parcial infantil. O estudo teve embasamento em pesquisas realizadas nas plataformas: Google Acadêmico, PubMed e Scielo. Na busca foram utilizadas palavras em inglês que se correlacionassem com o tema proposto e os artigos selecionados tiveram como critério de escolha a quantidade de vezes em que foram citados e o ano de publicação. Após as buscas, foram selecionados 32 artigos que compuseram a formação do estudo em questão, dentre eles artigos relacionados à epilepsia infantil parcial, ao topiramato e à farmacogenética. Em suma, entende-se que estudos com base na farmacogenética sejam mais disseminados no decorrer dos anos, para que possam existir tratamentos cada vez mais personalizados e individualizados aos pacientes portadores de epilepsia, principalmente no público infantil.

Effect of qualitatively varied reinforcement on response rates using substitutable consequences
Authors: Núñez-Santana Jesús Cuitláhuac
Published: November 2023

In order to test the effects of qualitatively varied reinforcement on response rates 3 experiments were conducted. The goal of the first experiment was asses the level of substitutability between two reinforcers   8 female Wistar rats kept on a diet consisting solely of turnip and millet seeds, subjects were exposed to a concurrent FR5 FR5 and then to a FR4 FR8 program, by the end of the experiment there was a swift in consumption, albeit to a small degree. During the second experiment, 8 female Wistar Rats were exposed to a three-component variable interval program which consisted of three components; one during which only millet seeds were available, one in which only turnip seeds were available and a third component in which both kinds of seeds were delivered randomly. By the end of the experiment the highest response rates were recorded during the component in which only millet seeds were available. Finally, a Third experiment was implemented in order to assess whether the particular way in which the substitutable consequences are delivered (i.e., random or simultaneously) has an effect on response rates. The program for this experiment consisted of a VI 60`s with two components. During one of the components a mixture of millet seeds was delivered when subjects responded after the interval was reached while during the second component either millet and turnip seeds were delivered randomly. By the end of the experiment no differences between components were found.  Results are discussed in terms of their implications for the study of reinforcement.
Relationship between Monetary reward and Athletic Identity of Lagos State Athletes
Authors: ADEWUNMI CELINA MOJISOLA , UROH CLIFFORD CHISOM
Published: November 2023

This study investigated the relationship between monetary reward and athletes’ athletic identity. The purpose was to understand the difference in athletic identity between athletes who earned monetary compensations and those who did not earn any monetary compensations for participating in sports. Two hundred and fifty-six athletes who competed in state-organized sports competitions completed the Athletic Identity Measurement Scale (AIMS). The data collected was analyzed using Mann Whitney U tests and Linear Regression at 0.05 level of significance. The findings revealed that age did not predict athletic identity, and monetary reward did not differentiate athletes who received financial compensations or not based on their athletic identity. The results have confirmed that other factors that are not monetary may be associated with athletes’ athletic identity. Therefore sports psychologists should identify those factors to help athletes sustain their athletic personalities.
The Psychic Life of Micro-Organisms: A Study in Experimental Psychology, A review of the book by Alfred Binet
Authors: Abramson Charles Ira , McCarthy IV William Norman
Published: November 2023

This article introduces the little-known contributions of Alfred Binet to comparative psychology. While Binet’s contributions to intelligence testing are well known and widely discussed in introductory psychology and history of psychology texts, his contributions to comparative psychology are largely forgotten. To acquaint textbook writers and students with Binet’s contributions, we review his 1889 book The Psychic Life of Micro-Organisms: A Study in Experimental Psychology. This book details his observations of the behavior of microscopic organisms. We discuss each of the nine chapters and close with speculation of how his book may have helped develop his problem solving tests.
Vegetarian vs. Carnivore Feeding Enrichment in a Pack of Captive Iberian Wolves (Canis lupus signatus): Towards Individual and Species-typical Needs?
Authors: Soriano Jiménez Ana Isabel
Published: November 2023

The aim of this study was to compare two different types of feeding enrichment (vegetarian vs. carnivore) through the daily activity, space use and inter-individual distances in a captive Iberian wolf (Canis lupus signatus) pack housed at the Barcelona Zoo. Multifocal sampling methods were used for data collection and instantaneous scans were made at 15-min intervals during sessions of varying duration. The enrichment sessions were carried out once a day, three days per week –Monday, Wednesday, and Friday- repeating the delivered schedule of items every two weeks. Thus, both feeding phases included six different enrichment sessions; the vegetarian phase included chopped fruit – apples inside a burlap sack, scattered bananas, peaches, frozen pears, and oranges, and kiwis inside a frozen water block; the carnivore phase included animal products -beef raw lean meat inside a burlap sack or inside a frozen water block, horse leg, live carp, frozen rabbit skin and live grasshoppers-. There were individual differences in the response to both feeding enrichments. Only the carnivore enrichment provoked statistically significant differences in exploration, locomotion, inactivity and not visible. Only the indeterminate zone showed changes during both enrichment phases. The inter-individual distance between Iberian wolves was statistically significantly lower during both feeding enrichment phases –especially during the carnivore as compared to the vegetarian phase- than during the baseline phase. Enrichment items designed more according to the natural history of these animals seem to have a greater capacity to improve the wolf welfare. Future studies on this species are necessary to improve husbandry techniques, welfare, and conservation programs.
Dogs produce distinctive play pants: Confirming Simonet
Authors: Volsche Shelly , Gunnip Hannah , Brown Cameron , Kiperash Makayla , Root-Gutteridge Holly , Horowitz Alexandra
Published: November 2023

Identifying meaningful vocalizations in nonhuman animals can help explain the evolution of human communications. However, non-speech-like sounds, including laughter equivalents, are not well studied, although they may be meaningful. In this pilot study we investigate whether dogs perform a domain-specific pant during play by capturing vocalizations and behaviors during three interactions: training, play, and rest. Sixteen human and dog dyads participated in a session that included all three interactions in the same order: training, play, rest. During these sessions, each partner wore wireless microphones that transmitted to a receiver and digital recorder, while a standalone digital camera captured video of the interactions. A one-way ANOVA demonstrates that dogs do perform a domain-specific "play pant," which was almost completely absent during training and rest. These vocalizations mostly co-occurred with play behaviors (e.g., play bow) or tickling and cuddling. These preliminary findings suggest that a laugh-like play pant is used by dogs during play; future research should explore other interspecific acoustic signals as derived from conspecific signals and having communicative function.
The Creative Canine: Investigating the concept of creativity in dogs (Canis lupus familiaris) using citizen science
Authors: Willgohs Kaitlyn Rose , Williams Jenna , Franklin Elaina , Highfill Lauren E.
Published: November 2023

There is no shortage of anecdotal evidence that domestic dogs (Canis lupus familiaris) can solve problems in individual or creative ways. Whether it is figuring out a new way to knock over the trash can or combining puppy-dog eyes with a whine for some table scraps, dogs approach their world in many ways. In recent years, dogs have been studied for a number of cognitive functions but their ability to demonstrate creative behaviors has not been empirically studied. The present study extends training of the create behavior, as previously trained in dolphins, to dogs. The criteria of the create behavior required the dog to present a behavior that had yet to be performed in the session, therefore, the only incorrect response was a repeated behavior. Mastery of the create command was coded on three components: repetition, energy, and novelty. Possible implications of this research will be discussed. This study adds to the literature on dog cognition and supports the utilization of citizen science for canine cognition research.

Целью данного исследования являлось установление взаимосвязи между уровнем конкурентоспособности национальной экономики и показателем развития образования. Установление данной взаимосвязи позволит направить инвестиционные потоки на стимулирование экономического развития и повышение уровня национальной конкурентоспособности страны. Также актуализируются пути поиска решений, способствующих повышения качества образования и способствующих большему охвату высшим образованием населения.

Актуальность и научная новизна исследования заключается в примененном научном подходе к изучению взаимосвязи индекса конкурентоспособности страны и уровня развития образования, а также в поиске путей стимулирования данного фактора.

Структурная трансформация общества, изменения в парадигме инновационного развития, все большее влияние нового технологического уклада привели к необходимости модернизации образования. Развитие высшего образования направлено на выявление способов его адаптации к требованиям рынка труда и создание качественно новой высшей школы, способной занять достойное место в рыночной экономике и удовлетворить потребности каждой личности в получении знаний и социального опыта. Проблема обеспечения качества услуг высшего образования является одной из наиболее сложных и важных социальных проблем высшей школы в мировом масштабе. Качество образовательной деятельности характеризуется различными составляющими: государственным стандартом высшего образования и качеством его реализации; качеством профессорско-преподавательского состава вуза; качеством материально-технической базы высшего учебного заведения; качеством методического, библиотечного и информационного обеспечения учебного процесса; качеством организации учебного процесса в учебном заведении, а также качеством субъектов обучения. При этом уровень развития высшего образования напрямую влияет на уровень конкурентоспособности страны.

Национальная конкурентоспособность как категория включает в себя множество факторов ее определяющих, среди которых ведущие позиции занимает образование. В ходе исследования были проанализированы методические подходы к определению национальной конкурентоспособности. Методика расчета Глобального индекса конкурентоспособности (GCI), составленного Всемирным экономическим форумом (ВЭФ) включает в себя составляющую «Высшее образование и обучение», которая отражает покрытие средним и высшим образованием, а также расходы на него и его качество. Проведенный в ходе исследования анализ показал высокую корреляцию, а следственно и взаимосвязь высшего образования и национальной конкурентоспособности. Таким образом, высшее образование играет существенную роль в экономическом развитии и при формировании интегрального показателя национальной конкурентоспособности.

V FOR VENDETTA FİLMİNDE KAHRAMAN TASARIMI: MASKE VE SHAKESPEARE ETKİSİ
Authors: ÖZERDEN K. Emre , AYDIN Hasan
Published: November 2023

Sinema ve tiyatro disiplinleri arasındaki biçim ve içerik ortaklığı iki sanatı çoğunlukla etkileşim içinde tutmaktadır. Sinema sanatında teatral unsurlara sıklıkla yer verilmektedir. William Shakespeare üretimleriyle sanat disiplinlerini cümleleri, karakterleri, kurgusu, konu ve temaları ile etkilemiştir. V forVendetta filminin kahraman tasarımında da maske ve Shakespeare etkisi kahramanın kişiliğini ve serüvenini şekillendirmektedir.

Postmodern bir sanat olan sinema, başka üretimlerle ilişkisi üzerinden anlamlanır; eserler arası dil ve düşünce beraberliği Bakhtin'insöyleşimsellik olarak adlandırdığı metinlerarası ilişkiyi var eder. Bakhtin, maskenin muhalif özellikleriyle karnaval ortamında yeniden anlamlandığını söyler. Sınırlı ve otoriter ideolojiye maskeyle başkaldırı karnavelesktir. Filmde önemli bir öğe olarak maske, en kuvvetli göstergedir. Mikhail Bakhtin bağlamında maske ve maskenin gülme hali karnavalesk kavramı doğrultusunda değişimi ve muhalifliği simgeler. Maske bu bağlamda var olan toplumun normları içinde şekillenen bireyi ötekinin varlığı ile tanıştırır. Maske bu doğrultuda kazandığı yeni anlamla devrimsel bir işlev kazanır.

Published: November 2023

Increasing female’s participation in the labour force is an important issue for countries that aims sustainable economic growth. Although the female labour force participation rate in Türkiye has increased since 2006, it is quite low compared to developed countries. There is a general consensus in the literature that the environment affects the labour force participation rate of females. In addition, the perception whether women who have children and undertake housework will be productive in business life also affects the decision to participate in the labour force. The aim of this study is to investigate the environmental and productivity perception factors that affect women's participation in the labour force. For this purpose, a survey was conducted on working women in Türkiye and Exploratory Factor Analysis (Exploratory Factor Analysis) and hypothesis tests were conducted. It was concluded that environmental and efficiency perception factors affect each other positively and significantly. It has been revealed that factors such as marital status, having children, and working in the private sector also affect environmental and efficiency perceptions.

This research aims to explore sustainability accounting practices in small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in Bali Province, Indonesia. Exploration of these practices is seen from the perspective of institutional issues, regulatory environment, social issues and environmental issues. The research sample was 397 SMEs in Bali Province, Indonesia selected using simple random sampling. Questionnaires were sent to SMEs (CEO/director/financial manager/accounting). Analysis was carried out using descriptive statistics with SPSS 25 software. Research findings show that awareness of sustainability reporting among SMEs in Bali Province is still low. SMEs have not published sustainability reports, despite being very reactive in accepting and introducing sustainability measures. The biggest obstacle to implementing sustainability accounting practices is a lack of understanding or information about the risks/benefits of sustainability. This research provides implications for the need to educate SMEs with sustainability knowledge and create a new approach to sustainability reporting, specifically developed for SMEs according to the organizational context. This research has limitations because it was only conducted in the context of a developing country, in Bali Province, Indonesia, thereby limiting the understanding of sustainability accounting practices in SMEs. This study used a limited sample with a usable response rate of 17.94% which limits the findings of this study. This research contributes to the sustainability accounting literature by diagnosing gaps related to sustainability reporting practices in SMEs. This research is the first attempt to explore sustainability accounting practices in the context of developing countries, especially SMEs in Bali Province, Indonesia.

A deterioração de habitats em decorrência das atividades antrópicas têm causado a perda de espécies e o deslocamento de comunidades vegetais, resultando na redução dos serviços ecossistêmicos. Embora as regiões áridas do mundo desempenhem um papel fundamental na manutenção da produtividade primária global e no desenvolvimento dos povos, elas estão sujeitas a grandes pressões antrópicas e aos efeitos das mudanças climáticas. A Península de Paraguaná, é afetada por múltiplas atividades humanas e por desastres ecológicos. Portanto, é essencial produzir um conhecimento atualizado sobre a vegetação que contribua para a geração de planos de manejo, proteção dos recursos e conservação da flora. Este estudo teve como objetivo analisar a montagem de comunidades da vegetação das zonas secas da Península de Paraguaná a partir das análises filogenéticas e de características funcionais. A tese foi organizada em três capítulos: No primeiro, foi feita a caracterização da vegetação das áreas secas e a relação da fitofisionomia com variáveis climáticas e edáficas. No segundo, foram investigados os efeitos das variáveis climáticas e edáficas sobre os traços funcionais das espécies. No terceiro, entender como os mecanismos de facilitação, bem como os distúrbios antrópicos gerados pela proximidade de estradas, atuam na história evolutiva das comunidades foi analisado. Encontrou-se que a flora da área de estudo é composta por 248 espécies pertencentes a 59 famílias, classificada em 6 tipos de vegetação que dependem de sua composição e de fatores climáticos como pluviosidade: matagal, matas dominadas por Libidibia coriaria e Morisonia odoratissima, matagal de Castela erecta, cardonal e a comunidade cardonal-matagal. Os traços funcionais e as síndromes de dispersão respondem a um gradiente hídrico e a alguns casos térmico. Nenhuma evidência de facilitação foi encontrada na vegetação com arranjo em moitas, elas são comunidades filogeneticamente agrupadas. A distância da rodovia como distúrbio não apresentou efeito nas comunidades em moitas. Isso pode ser devido a condições climáticas altamente estressantes. Palavras-chave: Áridos. Filogenética. Traços. Clima. Paraguaná.

The importance of the relationship between society and school culture is to create a healthy balance between these two entities. A school culture that is positive and relevant to the surrounding community can help students develop themselves and contribute positively to society. Conversely, positive influences from the community can also shape an inclusive and adaptive school culture. The method used in this paper is a qualitative approach with the type of writing analytic descriptions. The author will explain and analyze the problems encountered in the topic raised. Society can influence school culture in various ways such as providing support for school programs, providing input on school policies, and influencing student behavior outside of school. Society and school culture are two things that are interrelated and influence one another. These changes were mainly due to the implementation of the 2013 Curriculum which emphasized more active and creative learning.

Based on data obtained from BPS (Central Statistics Agency) in 2012 the number of farmers is 48% of the total workforce in Indonesia of around 49.8 million people (Alexandratos and Bruinsma 2012 p: 24). This situation is not enough to make Indonesia a prosperous and developed country. This is due to the low level of productivity of agricultural products because it is not supported by the use of good and environmentally friendly fertilizers. Farmers still often use chemical fertilizers which are capable of speeding up the planting period, but on the other hand in the long run it will actually have a risky negative impact. According to BPS dataon fisheries, shrimp production in Indonesia can reach 200,000 tons per year. The shrimp shell contains protein (25% - 40%), chitin (15% - 20%), and calcium carbonate (45% - 50%). The quality of shrimp shell waste based on nutrient content and nutrients is quite good and suitablefor use as liquid fertilizer, but until now this waste has not been used optimally, causing environmental pollution, especially odors and bad environmental aesthetics. The purpose of this study was to determine the process of making liquid organic fertilizer from shrimp shell waste (SUPERLIZER) and the effect of SUPERLIZER on the growth of chili plants. The method used in this study was to use 5 sample experiments with a comparison of the composition of shrimp shells and EM4 bacteria, namely (A) 200gram:100ml, (B) 300gram:100ml, (C) 400gram:100ml, (D) 500gram:100ml, (E) ) 600gram:100ml also used chemical fertilizer and water control which was tested for 10 days. The best results were obtained for sample (E) witha ratio of 600gram:100ml which gave a 5 cm increase in length compared to chemical fertilizers which only gave a 2.8 cm increase in length.

Published: November 2023

Changes are unavoidable in today’s risky and uncertain business environment including unpredictable supply chains of which the floriculture industry is not exempt The floriculture industry frequently encounters diverse and new challenges which must be managed to avoid losses, recovery challenges and even closure. It is important that firms employ relevant updated technology to enhance their resilience strategies to prepare for such disruptions, to continue existing and improve performance. However whether technology jointly contributes significantly in enhancing resilience and performance in floricultural firms is a topic that remains under-explored. Using the relevant empirical literature, the study sheds light on the relationship between resilience strategies and floricultural firms performance under the moderating effect of supply chain technology. The study adopted descriptive research design. Target population was 101 flower firms in Nakuru County-Kenya. Purposive sampling was used to pick 255 respondents. Moderated multiple regression analysis was used to test the moderating effect of supply chain technology. Performance was the dependent variable while supply chain resilience strategies i.e. supply chain collaboration, supply chain agility, supply chain flexibility and supply chain risk management were predictor variables. The study established that supply chain technology positively and significantly moderated the relationship between the supply chain resilience strategies and performance of floricultural firms. The study findings contribute to existing literature and provide practical recommendations to policy makers and floricultural supply chain managers to establish effective resilience policies and appropriate use of technology to manage and survive the unforeseen disruptions which will contribute significantly to their improved performance.
