Designing Ruby: Protocol for a 2-Arm, Brief, Digital Randomized Controlled Trial for Internalized Weight Bias
Authors: Hopkins Christina M , Miller Hailey N , Brooks Taylor L , Mo-Hunter Lihua , Steinberg Dori M , Bennett Gary G
Published: August 2021

Background

Weight bias internalization, also known as weight self-stigma, is a serious health concern for individuals with higher body weight. Weight bias internalization is associated with the greater avoidance of health care and health-promoting activities, disordered eating, social isolation, and weight gain. Elevated weight bias internalization has been associated with low self-compassion, yet few investigations have explored self-compassion as a potential mechanism for reducing internalized weight bias.

Objective

Ruby is a 2-arm randomized controlled trial that was designed to test the efficacy of a 4-week digital self-compassion intervention to reduce internalized weight bias compared with a wait-list control.

Methods

Adults with elevated internalized weight bias and a BMI of >30 kg/m2 (N=80) were recruited. Ruby is a standalone digital trial that will be delivered entirely via a smartphone and will involve web-based data collection and text messages. The intervention content will include psychoeducation and daily mindfulness practices with a focus on self-compassion and body concerns. We will use intent-to-treat analyses to examine changes in weight bias internalization throughout time by treatment arm. The analyses will be conducted by using one-way analysis of covariance models and linear mixed models.

Results

The protocol was designed in May 2020 and approved in December 2020. Data collection is currently underway.

Conclusions

Ruby will be the first digital standalone, self-compassion–based intervention designed to reduce internalized weight bias. Owing to its standalone digital delivery, Ruby may be a highly scalable treatment for internalized weight bias that can be delivered on its own or combined with other treatments. We expect Ruby to be accessible to many, as participants can access the digital intervention at times of the day that are the most convenient in their schedule and are not burdened by in-person time commitments, which can be a barrier for participants with competing demands on their time and resources. If efficacious, Ruby will be poised to expand a burgeoning body of literature related to psychological intervention in this area.

Comparing Social Media and In-Person Recruitment: Lessons Learned From Recruiting Substance-Using, Sexual and Gender Minority Adolescents and Young Adults for a Randomized Control Trial
Authors: Parker Jayelin N , Hunter Alexis S , Bauermeister Jose A , Bonar Erin E , Carrico Adam , Stephenson Rob
Published: August 2021

Background

Recruiting large samples of diverse sexual and gender minority adolescent and young adults (AYAs) into HIV intervention research is critical to the development and later dissemination of interventions that address the risk factors for HIV transmission among substance-using, sexual and gender minority AYAs.

Objective

This paper aimed to describe the characteristics of the samples recruited via social media and in-person methods and makes recommendations for strategies to recruit substance-using, sexual and gender minority AYAs, a hardly reached population that is a priority for HIV prevention research.

Methods

Using data from a randomized control trial of an HIV and substance use intervention with sexual and gender minority AYAs, aged 15 to 29 years in southeastern Michigan (n=414), we examined demographic and behavioral characteristics associated with successful recruitment from a range of virtual and physical venues.

Results

We found that paid advertisements on Facebook, Instagram, and Grindr offered the largest quantity of eligible participants willing to enroll in the trial. Instagram offered the largest proportion of transgender masculine participants, and Grindr offered the largest proportion of Black/African American individuals. Although we attempted venue-based recruitment at clubs, bars, community centers, and AIDS service organizations, we found it to be unsuccessful for this specific hardly reached population. Social media and geobased dating applications offered the largest pool of eligible participants.

Conclusions

Understanding factors associated with successful recruitment has the potential to inform effective and efficient strategies for HIV prevention research with substance-using, sexual and gender AYAs.

Introduction/Main Objectives: This research raises human resources management within the crediting bank, where employees require reliable and competent leadership. Leadership is categorized as the concept of empowering when the leader shares direction, a support system, friendly, synergizing, and providing exemplary examples to his subordinates.Background Problems: Through scientific ways, this study attempted to respond to the research questions, which are: 1) how is the maturity of employees in the Anugerah rural bank located in Purwosari, 2) what are the applications of leadership styles, duty behavior, and relationship behaviors at there, and 3) in which quadrant of leadership styles of the chief of operational, general, administrations, and marketing department? Novelty: The current study engaged four situational leadership in a model. Research Methods: The survey design administered the questionnaire, interviews, and observation to the target samples. The data, then analyzed using descriptive analysis and the range scale. Finding/Results: The operational and general divisions reflect their leadership styles in quadrant II representing a consultation or low task and relationship behavior. Besides, quadrant III, which implies a participating leadership style with high task and relationship behavior, has been practiced by the marketing department. The administrative division tends to use the leadership style from quadrant IV or delegating with high task behavior relationship. Conclusion: Leaders can select any leadership style, but they must remain aware of task and relationship behavior. This recent study has many limitations; hence, the future researcher can apply other leadership styles under different conditions.

Authors: Ganzemiller Kerstin , Vo Phuong , Bertsch Andy , Saeed Mohammad , Ondracek James , Pellenwessel David , Kea Monica , Nadeau Elizabeth
Published: August 2021

Introduction/ Main Objective: This study investigated preferred leadership styles, considered by many to be the most prevalent styles: autocratic, participative, and laissez-faire. We assessed ‘preferred leadership style’ from the perspective of the follower. The study aimed at exploring the variations in the preference for leadership styles across selected industries, namely the food/beverage industry, the retail industry, and the financial industry. Novelty: Leadership styles and perspectives have been investigated from divergent angles; but the preferred leadership styles have not been explored adequately across industries. This study endeavored at filling the gap in literature, and to provide direction to stakeholders, as regards followers’ perspectives.Research Methods: Our convenience sample was a result of a targeted effort to query respondents from three distinct samples: retail, restaurant/drink establishments, and consumer finance institutions (primarily banks). In addition to the preferred leadership from the perspective of the follower, we also collected demographic data including gender and age of the follower, in order to get the critical insights from demographic lenses. Our survey included the leader behavior questions that are borrowed from the LBDQ XII manual provided by Stogdill (1962), and involved an examination of the studies conducted by Van Eeden, et al.(2008) for examples of behaviors attributed to the various leadership styles.Finding/Results: Our results were mixed. In some analyses, our results were reflective of the literature. However, in other analyses, our results differed from the literature. The study evinced tolerance for autocratic leadership, particularly in retailing, much against the pre-conceived notion. Conclusion: The study confirmed the generally- accepted hypothesis that employees from the food/beverage industry, the retail industry, and the financial industry all prefer participative leadership significantly more than autocratic or laissez-faire styles.
Computational Mindfulness
Authors: Z. Maymin Philip , P. Maymin Stella
Published: August 2021

We take a computational approach to investigating highly abstract concepts including mindfulness, brain waves, and quantum mechanics. Using Langerian non-meditative mindfulness, defined as the active process of noticing new things, we find that when tested on the authors as subjects in two different ways, induced mindfulness is consistently distinguishable from induced mindlessness, and results in a calmer time series of brain waves as measured on an electroencephalogram. Additional results include a statistical Granger causality analysis of scholarly mindfulness research showing that Langerian mindfulness research causes future mindfulness research but not vice versa, and preliminary results from another study showing substantial differences in responses among subjects induced to view their own faces either mindfully or mindlessly.

Suctioning of the endotracheal tube in ventilated patients is one of the ways to maintain the airway open. There arevarious risks associated with this procedure. Suctioning methods that are appropriate for the situation can help to avoid acute problems. The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of open vs closed suction on cardiorespiratory parameters in patients on mechanical ventilations. Patients hospitalized to Neuro-ICU and Medical ICU with ventilator support was studied in a non-randomized clinical trial with a time series study design. Sixty samples were chosen using a convenient sampling procedure, including 30 for open suction and 30 for closed suction. Before and during suction, data such as demographic factors and cardio-respiratory parameters such as respiratory rate, heart rate, mean arterial pressure, and SpO2 were measured. In this study, statistically significant changes (p=0.001) in Mean Arterial Pressure (MAP) and SpO2 were identified when open and closed suction systems were compared. According to the findings, closed suction has a significant favourable impact on cardiopulmonary parameters.

Stroke is the largest cause of death worldwide and the primary cause of disability. As a result, it was required to investigate the level of hypertension patients' knowledge of risk factors and warning symptoms. A descriptive cross- sectional study carried out among 200 hypertensive patients who were selected using purposive sampling technique. The tool was constructed with three sections: demographic data, risk factor awareness, and stroke signs and symptoms. The study results show that he total mean of knowledge on risk factors of stroke was 11.73 with the SD of 2.17 and warning signs was 9.61 with the SD of 1.99. The gender, age and level of education had significant relationship with knowledge of the hypertensive patients on risk factors of stroke at p=0.05 level. The study concludes that the majority of hypertension patients had insufficient understanding of stroke risk factors and warning symptoms. Hence, the first priority should be to raise public knowledge of hypertension and support primary prevention in order to reduce the morbidity and mortality related to stroke.

Comparison of Analysis and Design of Regular and Irregular Configuration of Multi Story Building in Seismic Zones
Authors: Swaliheen Mohd.
Published: August 2021

Abstract: This paper is concerned with the effects of various vertical irregularities on the seismic response of a structure. The objective of the project is to carry out Response spectrum analysis (RSA) and Time history Analysis (THA) of vertically irregular RC building frames and to carry out the ductility based design using IS 13920 corresponding to Equivalent static analysis and Time history analysis. Comparison of the results of analysis and design of irregular structures with regular structure was done. The scope of the project also includes the evaluation of response of structures subjected to high, low and intermediate frequency content earthquakes using Time history analysis. Three types of irregularities namely mass irregularity, stiffness irregularity and vertical geometry irregularity were considered. According to our observation, the storey shear force was found to be maximum for the first storey and it decreases to minimum in the top storey in all cases. The mass irregular structures were observed to experience larger base shear than similar regular structures. The stiffness irregular structure experienced lesser base shear and has larger inter-storey drifts. The absolute displacements obtained from time history analysis of geometry irregular structure at respective nodes were found to be greater than that in case of regular structure for upper stories but gradually as we moved to lower stories displacements in both structures tended to converge. . Lower stiffness results in higher displacements of upper stories. In case of a mass irregular structure, time history analysis gives slightly higher displacement for upper stories than that in regular structures whereas as we move down lower stories show higher displacements as compared to that in regular structures. When time history analysis was done for regular as well as stiffness irregular structure, it was found that displacements of upper stories did not vary much from each other but as we moved down to lower stories the absolute displacement in case of soft storey were higher compared to respective stories in regular structure. Tall structures were found to have low natural frequency hence their response was found to be maximum in a low frequency earthquake. It is because low natural frequency of tall structures subjected to low frequency earthquake leads to resonance resulting in larger displacements. If a high rise structure (low natural frequency)is subjected to high frequency ground motion then it results in small displacements. Similarly, if a low rise structure (high natural frequency) is subjected to high frequency ground motion it results in larger displacements whereas small displacements occur when the high rise structure is subjected to low frequency ground motion.

Rapid Method for Detecting Bactericidal Effects of Mangrove Derived Silver Nanoparticles Using Resazurin Microdilution Assay
Authors: N Asmathunisha
Published: August 2021

Abstract: Nanoparticles plays a vital role in the field of antimicrobial agents against pathogenic microorganisms. Screening of nanoparticles for antimicrobial activities is a time consuming and cumbersome process. Recently, a simple technique of using the dye resazurin has been used as an indicator of bacterial growth for testing antimicrobial activity on microtitre plate. However, this technique does not quantify the microbial load. Therefore, the present work was attempted to find a new antibacterial method employing the dye resazurin assay and haemocytometric counting of microbes for testing silver nanoparticles synthesised from Xylocarpus mekongensis .The bacterial strains E. coli, S. aureus and P. aeruginosa (multi-drug resistant strain) were used to evaluate the screening of mangrove extracts. Minimum inhibition concentration (MIC) was also calculated for the silver nanoparticles using ciproflaxcin as reference antibiotic. The antibacterial activity Xylocarpus mekongensis was carried out against all the three bacteria by the same method and the values were compared with reference antibiotic. The present study has suggested a rapid, dependable, easy and inexpensive method, suitable for testing the antibacterial activity of silver nanoparticles which are promising to develop as new antibacterials.

Multilevel Intrusion Alert Post-processing for the Elimination of False Positives
Authors: AM Riyad
Published: August 2021

Abstract: Intrusion detection systems are the last line of defence in the network security domain. Improving the performance of intrusion detection systems always increase false positives. This is a serious problem in the field of intrusion detection. In order to overcome this issue to a great extend, we propose a multi level post processing of intrusion alerts eliminating false positives produced by various intrusion detection systems in the network. For this purpose, the alerts are normalized first. Then, a preliminary alert filtration phase prioritize the alerts and removes irrelevant alerts. The higher priority alerts are then aggregated to fewer numbers of hyper alerts. In the final phase, alert correlation is done and alert correlation graph is constructed for finding the causal relationship among the alerts which further eliminates false positives. Experiments were conducted on LLDOS 1.0 dataset for verifying the approach and measuring the accuracy. Keywords: Intrusion detection system, alert prioritization, alert aggregation, alert correlation, LLDOS 1.0 dataset, alert correlation graph.

Authors: Paiva Vanessa Fortunato de , Souza Solange de Cassia Inforzato de , Gomes Magno Rogério
Published: August 2021

Este trabalho tem como objetivo analisar os determinantes salariais dos professores assalariados com formação superior no Brasil e os efeitos dos níveis de ensino em que atuam sobre os salários. Com base nos microdados da Pesquisa Nacional por Amostra de Domicílios Contínua (PNAD-C) de 2018, estimam-se as equações salariais e mensuram-se as fontes das desigualdades salariais dos professores. As constatações são as de que os salários dos professores estão relacionados positivamente aos seus atributos produtivos, como também ao nível de atuação profissional, no ensino fundamental, médio e superior. Ser mulher e não branco reduzem os salários dos professores, mais intensamente para os níveis de atuação mais elevados. Apesar de importantes, as dotações produtivas explicam menos as desigualdades salariais dos professores, sendo a estrutura própria das carreiras o fator preponderante, afirmando a existência de segmentação dos postos de trabalho na profissão docente no Brasil

ECONOMIA SOLIDÁRIA E A CONTROVÉRSIA CRISE DA CACAUICULTURA NO TERRITÓRIO LITORAL SUL DA BAHIA
Authors: Souza Santos Dayvid , De Araújo Kalid Ricardo , Luiz Pellegrini Pessoa Fernando , Jacobo Moquete Guzman Socrates
Published: August 2021

Os Indicadores Sociais IDH e GINI são ferramentas de suma importâcia para realizar comparações e análises das evoluções dos fatores socioeconomicos, no Território Litoral Sul da Bahia. (TLS). Esses índices apontam uma melhora nas 26 cidades nas últimas duas décadas, contrariando a maior parte da literatura vigente que apregoa a existência de uma crise prolongada. Nesse mesmo período, no TLS inúmeras experiências de produção coletivas emergiram, dando forma à economia solidária, trazendo consigo ideias de solidariedade, autogestão, entre outras. Todavia, este artigo apresenta uma análise envolvendo 147 empreendimentos econômicos solidários diagnosticados no TLS, nos quais as políticas sociais incidiram substancialmente no progresso desses empreendimentos e no desenvolvimento territorial. O caráter metodológico da pesquisa é o dedutivo, com investigação de cunho descritiva e analítica. Os resultados apontam para existência de empreendimentos com baixo uso de tecnologias modernas no processo produtivo, gerando, dessa forma, pouca renda para os empreendimentos pesquisados.
MODELOS DE EMPREENDIMENTOS ECONÔMICOS SOLIDÁRIOS
Authors: Gaiger Luis Inácio Germany
Published: August 2021

O artigo explora dados do Sistema Nacional de Informações sobre a Economia Solidária e de fontes relacionadas a organizações similares, como associações e cooperativas, com dois objetivos: elaborar uma tipologia de empreendimentos econômicos solidários no Brasil, com cinco modelos, e aplicar sobre eles uma abordagem gradualista, visando posicionar tais empreendimentos em relação ao conceito de referência que os situa na Economia Solidária e cernir suas semelhanças e contrastes com organizações similares, pertencentes a campos sociais afins. Conclui-se que a Economia Solidária transcende os limites dos levantamentos nacionais realizados no Brasil, que por sua vez indicam como a solidariedade caracteriza historicamente o modo de vida e a economia popular, sendo uma vez mais reativada pelos empreendimentos e mobilizações promovidas nas últimas décadas pela Economia Solidária.

Dentre as práticas alternativas econômicas na América Latina, o presente estudo tem por objetivo identificar a partir da gestão social e da parceira da extensão universitária uma experiência prática de trabalho coletivo autogestionário no território local. Também propõe-se a discutir como a sociedade civil da Comunidade São Rafael, situada em João Pessoa/PB, tem se articulado em conjunto com a extensão universitária para geração de emprego e renda na comunidade local. A pesquisa tem como modalidade o estudo de caso, de caráter exploratório, e sua consecução realizou-se por meio do levantamento bibliográfico. Os resultados revelaram o papel profundo e assente da extensão universitária no fortalecimento do trabalho coletivo popular autogestionário e na construção da compreensão técnica, jurídica e formativas em autogestão.

Neste trabalho, tem-se como objetivo fazer uma reflexão sobre a iniciativa realizada pelos trabalhadores da agricultura familiar em forma de drive thru organizados através da Feira de Saberes e Sabores, uma feira que faz parte do projeto acompanhado pela Incubadora de Iniciativas da Economia Popular e Solidária da UEFS (IEPS/UEFS). O drive thru foi pensado para viabilizar formas de comercialização com intuito de possibilitar a geração de trabalho e renda no contexto de calamidade sanitária (COVID-19). Como resultado do processo de organização do trabalho, inferiu-se que a maioria dos agricultores vivem do seu trabalho, do seu protagonismo consubstanciados na comercialização no espaço da feira. Com efeito, estes sujeitos ficaram impossibilitados de ofertar o excedente de sua produção, cuja necessidade articulada ao processo educativo de trabalho os fez apropriar-se de tecnologias digitais na perspectiva de dinamizar-se em um conjunto de elementos capaz de resultar em um protagonismo do trabalho organizado.

REFORMA TRABALHISTA NO BRASIL
Authors: Duarte Pedro Henrique Evangelista , Sartorio Loural Marcelo
Published: August 2021

A aprovação, no Brasil, das leis número 13.429 – que alterou dispositivos da lei que dispunha sobre o trabalho temporário nas empresas urbanas - e 13.467 – que alterou a Consolidação das Leis do Trabalho (CLT) -, ambas de 2017, teve como objetivo promover a flexibilização das leis trabalhistas - sendo seu conjunto denominado como reforma trabalhista - com argumentos sobre a necessidade de se modernizar a CLT para adequá-la e adaptá-la ao cenário competitivo atual e, portanto, às novas condições sobre as quais operam a relação capital-trabalho. Uma vez que a reforma entrou em vigor no final de 2017, e considerando que quaisquer observações a respeito dos efeitos da reforma seriam preliminares e inconclusivos, o presente trabalho se propõe a lançar uma metodologia de acompanhamento do mercado de trabalho formal no Brasil para identificar os resultados da reforma a médio/longo prazo.
REFORMA TRABALHISTA E DESPROTEÇÃO SOCIAL: UM DEVIR NEGRO DO MUNDO
Authors: Garcia de Mello Luciana
Published: August 2021

Esse artigo procura analisar a relação entre a reforma trabalhista e o processo de generalização da desproteção social. Procurou-se demonstrar que com o desenvolvimento do capitalismo e da industrialização foi sendo estabelecido um elo entre trabalho e proteção social. No entanto, a partir dos anos 1970, diante da crise estrutural do capital, esse panorama muda e o conflito entre capital e trabalho volta a tornar-se cada vez mais desregulamentado.  O horizonte normativo que havia sido construído pela luta da classe trabalhadora se esmaece e trabalhadores historicamente inseridos informalmente e de forma precária, como é o caso dos negros, deixam de vislumbrar em seu horizonte a possibilidade de diminuição das desigualdades que os separam dos brancos. Ao contrário, o que se assiste é uma mudança estrutural, que provoca um devir negro do mundo, indicando assim uma tendência de que a condição da população negra se alastre para boa parte dos trabalhadores.
MAPEAMENTO DAS NOTIFICAÇÕES DE AGRAVOS NO CEREST – MACRO REGIONAL CAMPOS GERAIS, PARANÁ, BRASIL

Published: August 2021

Trata-se de uma pesquisa de Iniciação Científica com objetivo de acessar e mapear as notificações dos acidentes de trabalho efetuadas de 2009 a 2015, na área de atuação do CEREST Campos Gerais, no estado do Paraná. O maior número de notificações ocorreu em 2013, atingindo principalmente homens, da raça branca, com escolaridade até o ensino médio e faixa etária de 20 a 49 anos. Acidentes com mutilações foram predominantes com 5967 notificações, seguidos de 236 acidentes com crianças e adolescentes e 205 acidentes fatais. Concluiu-se que há problemas quanto a completude e inconsistência dos dados, no adequado preenchimento da ficha e subnotificação. É necessário aprimorar as notificações e o sistema em que são registradas, sensibilizar e capacitar a rede sentinela acerca da importância de se notificar e de fazê-lo corretamente, fornecendo assim subsídios para o planejamento de ações em Saúde do Trabalhador que diminuam a incidência de acidentes de trabalho.
MULHERES NEGRAS E DISCRIMINAÇÃO SALARIAL NA BAHIA EM 2019
Authors: Fonseca Edna Silva , Jorge Marco Antonio
Published: August 2021

O objetivo desta pesquisa é verificar a hipótese de discriminação salarial contra as mulheres negras no mercado de trabalho baiano em 2019, tomando como base a Pesquisa Nacional por Amostra de Domicílio Contínua (PNADC). A estratégia empírica engloba o procedimento proposto por Heckman (1979) para correção do viés de seleção amostral na estimação das equações mincerianas de salário, e por fim, a decomposição do diferencial de salários proposta por Oaxaca (1973). Os resultados indicam a existência de diferenciais salariais significativos, onde as mulheres negras do estado da Bahia, mesmo possuindo melhores atributos produtivos em relação aos homens brancos e negros, experimentam uma depreciação salarial em decorrência de discriminação, em especial a de gênero.

RESUMOAs pesquisas sobre percepção de saúde são relevantes para contribuir na avaliação de bem-estar dos países, uma vez que o estado de saúde afeta diretamente a produtividade do trabalho e renda dos indivíduos, bem como a sua qualidade vida. As desigualdades de saúde entre os sexos afetam de forma desproporcional homens e mulheres. O objetivo dessa pesquisa consiste em analisar os fatores que influenciam a percepção de saúde de homens e mulheres. Para isso, foram utilizados dados transversais para fazer as análises descritivas e estimar os modelos logit ordinal para o Brasil e por sexo dos trabalhadores. A base de dados utilizada foi a Pesquisa Nacional de Saúde (2013). Os principais resultados mostraram que em média as mulheres declararam menor percepção de boa saúde do que os homens, além disso, independe da faixa salarial, as chances das mulheres declararem estado de saúde muito bom eram menores em relação aos homens.
IMPACTOS DA REFORMA TRABALHISTA NO MERCADO DE TRABALHO DE SANTA CATARINA
Authors: Mattei Lauro , Heinen Vicente Loeblein
Published: August 2021

O objetivo principal do artigo é analisar os impactos da reforma trabalhista efetuada no Brasil em 2017 sobre o mercado de trabalho de Santa Catarina. O ponto de partida analítico remonta ao processo de mudanças recentes no mundo do trabalho no âmbito global, bem como ao processo de crise econômica que se estabeleceu no país a partir de 2014. Tal crise encetou a argumentação de setores hegemônicos do capital, juntamente com o governo de plantão à época, de que a solução para o problema do desemprego e da informalidade no Brasil adviria de uma ampla reforma na legislação trabalhista. Tomando como base as informações da PNAD Contínua, são analisados os possíveis impactos das mudanças na legislação trabalhista sobre os níveis de ocupação da força de trabalho e de formalização do emprego no estado catarinense e, a partir dos dados do Caged, sobre o mercado formal de trabalho do estado, articulando particularmente as modalidades do trabalho intermitente e do trabalho parcial. Os resultados indicam que, ao invés de atacar a precarização, a reforma acabou facilitando sua extensão para áreas que antes forneciam um maior grau de segurança aos trabalhadores.
