Recognition, differentiation, and the knowledge about mimic expressions of emotions among patients diagnosed with schizophrenia
Authors: Subocz Dawid
Published: January 2025

Cel pracy

Celem badania jest ocena zdolności rozpoznawania, różnicowania oraz wiedzy o ekspresjach mimicznych emocji wśród osób cierpiących na schizofrenię.

Metoda

W badaniu udział wzięło 100 osób chorujących na schizofrenię oraz 100 osób zdrowych. Uczestnicy wykonywali trzy zadania w komputerowym eksperymencie rozpoznawania ekspresji mimicznych. Wykorzystane w nim zostały twarze 30 osób (14 mężczyzn i 16 kobiet) z zestawu Warsaw Set of Emotional Facial Expression Pictures. Zdjęcia te przedstawiają 6 podstawowych emocji (radość, strach, wstręt, złość, smutek, zaskoczenie).

Wyniki

Osoby chorujące na schizofrenię gorzej od osób zdrowych rozpoznawały i różnicowały wybrane ekspresje emocjonalne. Chorzy wykazali się też mniejszą wiedzą o ekspresjach mimicznych emocji.

Wnioski

W badaniu wykazano, że problemy przy rozpoznawaniu emocji wynikają nie tylko z dysfunkcji na wczesnych etapach percepcji ekspresji mimicznych emocji ale również z dysfunkcji w zakresie odgórnego przetwarzania bodźców afektywnych. Wyniki badania stanowią podstawę do tworzenia treningów rozpoznawania ekspresji mimicznych. Treningi te powinny uczyć chorych prawidłowej kategoryzacji emocji oraz rozwijać ich wiedzę na temat ekspresji emocjonalnych.

DINÁMICAS CELOPÁTICAS Y DESIGUALDAD EN EL CINE MEXICANO DE LA ÉPOCA DE ORO.
Authors: González Manrique Manuel Jesús
Published: January 2025

El artículo analiza la representación de los celos como patología en el cine mexicano de
la Época de Oro, centrándose en las películas Allá en el Rancho Grande, Él, La
devoradora, El rebozo de Soledad y Nosotros los pobres. En estas películas se examinan
los celos según su clasificación médica en un contexto de locura y represión sexual. La
devoradora, por su parte, critica la figura masculina a través de una mujer fatal que
manipula a los hombres. Nosotros los pobres aborda los celos en un marco de desigualdad
social, idealizando la pobreza. El artículo también compara al protagonista de Él con Don
Quijote y discute la diferencia entre celos normales y patológicos, utilizando el cine como
un medio para explorar dinámicas de poder y control en las relaciones.

disciplinario desarrollado por Foucault para identificar los mecanismos de control social
y el despliegue de las tecnologías para la docilidad de los cuerpos. Esto se realiza por
medio de un estudio en el hospital psiquiátrico Villa Ocaranza, en el Estado de Hidalgo,
México, para identificar el modelo de atención, la arquitectura hospitalaria, el marco
reglamentario y los abusos a los que se someten los pacientes. Lo anterior como un marco
para comprender la continuidad histórica en el tratamiento de la locura como una forma
de control y diferenciación social (normal/anormal).
INDEPENDENCIA, PACIFICACIÓN Y RECONCILIACIÓN EN EL DEBATE PÚBLICO HISPANO-MEXICANO, 1820-1822.
Authors: Almarza Villalobos Angel Rafael , Landavazo Marco Antonio
Published: January 2025

El objetivo de este texto es analizar el debate que se produjo en la prensa periódica y en
los impresos de España y América sobre las independencias hispanoamericanas y de sus
posibles soluciones pacíficas y negociadas. Se revisan las ideas y planteamientos
expresados en los primeros años de la década de 1820 por intelectuales, periodistas y
hombres públicos, quienes emplearon la prensa periódica, folletos y panfletos políticos
para destacar en el debate público la necesidad de poder fin a la guerra civil y lograr la
urgente pacificación de América. Se parte de la hipótesis de que el vigoroso debate en la
esfera pública hispanoamericana sobre la independencia y sus soluciones permitió
mantener la opción pacifista como una posibilidad real y plausible, a pesar de que las
tendencias dominantes favorecían la opción militarista para abordar las discrepancias
americanas.

Dokdo to nasze terytorium – etnonacjonalizm koreański w erze internetu
Authors: Iwicka Renata
Published: January 2025

Nationalism in South Korea is mainly formed around two main pillars – one is a sense of belonging to one, unbroken bloodline, constituting a special “race”, and the other is territory. These two form a basis for modern Korean nationalism, which can be called either ethno-nationalism or even haemonationalism. This sentiment excludes from participating anyone who does not belong to the “Dangun line”, a mythological unified ethnie stretching back through the famous “five thousand years”. The territory aspect is mainly visible through the spat between Korea and Japan over the sovereignty over Dokdo islets. Korean tagline “Dokdo is our territory” is repeated and retransformed all over different media and performances. At the same time, it is a starting point and main axis of the analysis presented in this article.
Megalia – organizacja feministyczna czy źle skrywana mizoandria?
Authors: Funek Angelika
Published: January 2025

The main objective of the article is to provide an analysis of the activities of the Korean web forum Megalia. Megalia was founded in 2006 and operated until 2015. During this time, forum users have taken many actions to combat misogyny for example fighting against hidden cameras or the pornographic site known as Soranet. At the same time, they were also taking controversial actions related to the so-called mirroring – they consisted of transforming misogynistic language to describe men. The article will compare these two aspects of the forum’s activities (the fight against misogyny and the use of misandric language), to prove to what extent Megalia was a feminist forum and to what extent an anti-male forum.
Co gnije wśród moich kwiatów? Motyw ogrodu w powieści Kim Jinyoung Dom z ogrodem
Authors: Kim Reesul
Published: January 2025

This research explores the evolving symbolism of gardens in Korean culture by outlining the historical roots and the contemporary image presented by Kim Jinyoung in her novel House with a Garden. The analysis focuses on answering the three questions: how is a garden presented in Kim Jinyoung’s novel? What does a garden symbolize in the text? How can it be defined in relation to the historical symbol of the garden? The study has shown that the author presents a contrasting symbol of the garden that negates the modern ideal of the garden at the same time. The research has its limitations in the form of focusing on only one example of a literary work, however, greater emphasis is on enriching the discourse on the symbolism of the garden and highlighting the need for further research.
Escándalos, crisis presidenciales y juicio político. Razones para la destitución de Pedro Castillo en el Perú
Authors: Aguirre Cahua Manuel Ernesto , Calcina Romero Luis Andrés
Published: January 2025

Este artículo se propone analizar las condiciones que hicieron posible la destitución de Pedro Castillo como presidente del Perú en el año 2022. Para tal fin, se estudia el caso desde un abordaje cuantitativo y cualitativo, con el que se busca explicar cómo el Congreso pudo destituir a Castillo luego de tres procesos de juicio político. Se toma como referencia el enfoque conceptual de las crisis presidenciales, desarrollado por Pérez-Liñán, los hallazgos de esta investigación permiten concluir que, el contexto de grave polarización política, el alto número de escándalos políticos, la pérdida del escudo legislativo, la difícil relación con las élites y el fallido autogolpe de Estado —llevado a cabo por el exmandatario— determinaron su destitución.
“A la gente como yo nos da lo mismo”. Efectos de las condiciones materiales en la indiferencia hacia el régimen político en América Latina
Authors: Subinas Jon , García-Rendón Sergio
Published: January 2025

El artículo responde a la pregunta ¿qué factores inciden en el nivel de indiferencia ciudadana frente al régimen político en América Latina? Para ello se utiliza una regresión logística con datos de Latinobarómetro (s. f.), donde la variable dependiente es la tercera opción de respuesta a la pregunta de apoyo a la democracia —en el cuestionario de la encuesta—: “A la gente como uno, nos da lo mismo un régimen democrático que uno no democrático”. Como una de las variables independientes se introduce una nueva forma de medir el nivel de bienestar material de los encuestados, con base en la posesión de bienes y servicios, lo que posibilita profundizar en el efecto de la dimensión material en la política. Esto constituye un aporte porque la dimensión material no ha tenido tanta importancia en los análisis que hacen uso de las encuestas de opinión pública en América Latina, ya sea por consideraciones teóricas o metodológicas. En los resultados se halla que las personas con poco acceso al bienestar material son las que expresan una mayor predisposición a estar desconectadas del régimen político y las personas que consideran que la democracia resuelve los problemas muestran una menor tendencia a ser indiferentes con el régimen político.
Representar Politicamente:
Authors: Moraes Renato Almeida de , Blanco Filipe Zanuzzio
Published: January 2025

Este artículo explora las contribuciones teóricas de Hanna Pitkin y Lisa Disch para la comprensión de la representación política en las democracias modernas. Pitkin, en su obra The Concept of Representation (1972), establece una base robusta al diferenciar cuatro tipos principales de representación: formalista, simbólica, descriptiva y sustantiva. Disch amplía este análisis al incorporar elementos performativos y discursivos, proponiendo que la representación debe ser vista como un proceso continuo de negociación y performance, donde los representantes no solo reflejan, sino también moldean los intereses de los representados. El objetivo principal del artículo es analizar y comparar estas contribuciones, ofreciendo una visión más completa y dinámica de la representación política. Utilizando una metodología de análisis de contenido, el estudio revisa detalladamente las principales obras de Pitkin y Disch, además de incorporar críticas y análisis de otros teóricos. La integración de las teorías de Pitkin y Disch proporciona un avance significativo en el debate académico, ofreciendo una perspectiva más holística y adaptativa de las dinámicas representativas. Esta combinación mejora la comprensión teórica de las dinámicas representativas y proporciona directrices prácticas para una representación más inclusiva y responsiva en las democracias contemporáneas, destacando la relevancia continua de sus contribuciones para la teoría política
Designing Information to Engage Customers
Authors: Guo Liang
Published: January 2025

Collaborative customization is common in many markets. Sellers and customers can collectively discover the value of the product’s basic design. Customers’ willingness to pay can also be increased by being engaged to improve the product design. We study how a seller can design the information structure of collective learning about the product’s basic value to induce costly customer engagement. We consider a setting in which the parties’ expected payoffs are determined endogenously through the strategic interaction between seller pricing and customer engagement and purchase. The customer tends to be engaged in equilibrium, as the uncertainty on the product’s basic value becomes higher to dilute the responsiveness of the optimal price to customer engagement. Therefore, the seller seeks to maximize the probability of generating an intermediate posterior belief. Thus, the optimal information design involves either exaggerating or downplaying the product’s basic value when the prior is low or high, respectively. We show that considering restrictive information structures can generate qualitatively different implications. We also examine how the unobservability of engagement may influence the parties’ strategic interaction, their expected payoffs, and the seller-optimal information design. Interestingly, unobservability may lead to lower equilibrium engagement, hurt the seller, render the customer’s equilibrium expected payoff to increase as customer engagement becomes less important or more costly, and yield more or less information provision.

Published: January 2025

The Bedadung River is one of the largest rivers located in Jember Regency, flowing through the Balung andWuluhan districts. Along the river, the community utilizes land use such as residential areas, rice fields,plantations, and cement factories for various needs. Community activities around the river generate waste that has the potential to degrade the water quality of the Bedadung River. This study aims to analyze the impact of the proximity of pollution sources on river water quality by mapping the distance between land-use sources and research locations using the Euclidean Distance method. This research employs the Euclidean Distance method to create raster-based distance map visualizations, which indicate the proximity of pollution sources to the river. The results show that residential areas are the primary sources of pollution, with 10 nearby points, followed by rice fields (7 points), plantations (6 points), and cement factories (2 points). The red areas on the map indicate closer distances with higher pollution impacts, while the green areas represent farther distances with lower pollution impacts.

Application of the Omaha System-Based Continuous Care Model in Diabetes Health Management for Outpatients within the Framework of “Internet +”
Authors: Chen Ying , Yan Xia , Liu Jianjun , Bian Zhengxia , Yan Li
Published: January 2025

Aims/Background Diabetes is a chronic lifelong condition that requires consistent self-care and daily lifestyle adjustments. Effective disease management involves regular blood glucose monitoring and ongoing nursing support. Inadequate education and poor self-management are key factors contributing to increased mortality among diabetic individuals. Providing personalized guidance and behavioral interventions through continuous nursing care is crucial for achieving optimal glycemic control and fostering positive societal outcomes. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of an Omaha System-based continuous nursing model, implemented through the “Internet+” framework, on enhancing self-health management skills, glycemic control, and treatment adherence among patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).

Methods This retrospective study analyzed clinical data of T2DM patients who visited the diabetes health management clinic of Zhang Ye People's Hospital affiliated to Hexi University between December 2023 and May 2024. Participants were categorized into intervention and control groups based on whether they received the “Internet+”-enabled Omaha System continuous nursing care model. Variables, including demographic characteristics, self-management behaviors, cognitive abilities, environmental factors, glycemic control indicators, and treatment adherence (medication compliance, dietary compliance, lifestyle adherence, and follow-up punctuality), were assessed and compared at baseline, 1 month, and 3 months post-intervention.

Results The study included 52 patients in the intervention group and 68 in the control group. Baseline characteristics revealed no significant differences between the two groups (p > 0.05). At 1 and 3 months post-intervention, the intervention group exhibited significant improvements in self-management behaviors, cognitive abilities, environmental factors, and overall scores compared to baseline and the control group (p < 0.05). Fasting plasma glucose (FPG) levels were also significantly reduced in the intervention group compared to baseline and the control group (p < 0.05). 3 months post-intervention, the intervention group demonstrated significantly higher adherence rates to dietary recommendations, healthy lifestyle practices, and treatment compliance compared to the control group (p < 0.05).

Conclusion The “Internet+”-based Omaha System continuous nursing model significantly enhances self-health management capabilities, stabilizes glycemic control, and promotes adherence to healthy behaviors among patients with T2DM. These findings highlight the potential of the model for broader clinical application in diabetes management.

Published: January 2025

In this study, a simulation model of the self-propelled underground crop harvester was developed using Recurdyn to analyze and prevent its overturning. For the analysis of the overturning angle for the self-propelled underground crop harvester, the test jig was selected in the same steel condition. The dynamic friction coefficient of the crawler of driving part contact with the test jig was selected as the dynamic friction coefficient of 3 condition(steel, unpaved road, and asphalt) to perform the simulation. The overturning angle and contact force of the self-propelled underground crop harvester using dynamics simulation were analyzed. It was found that the overturning angle at each condition did not conduct under 30° in the no-load state, which is the test standard for agricultural machinery conduction test of the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs, and it was judged that the test standard was suitable for the test. The overturning angle of the self-propelled underground crop harvester was 32.32° when the dynamic friction coefficient of steel was selected as 0.25. The overturning angle of the self-propelled underground crop harvester was 37.54° when the dynamic friction coefficient of unpaved road was selected as 0.5. Also, the overturning angle of the self-propelled underground crop harvester was 44.69° when the dynamic friction coefficient of asphalt was selected as 0.8. By changing the dynamic friction coefficient, the results of the overturning angle analysis showed that the overturning angle increased as the friction coefficient increased. Accordingly, it is judged that the overturning angle of 37.54°- 44.69° should be considered when working in upland where self-propelled underground crop harvesters are mainly used.

Published: January 2025

Radishes are one of the most popular vegetables in many South Asian countries (e.g., Korea, Japan, China, India). In recent years, the domestic radish consumption rate has been steadily increasing. The annual consumption has been increased by 16% from 19.8 kg in 2016 to 23 kg in 2022. However, annual production has been increased by only 4.19% from 467,104 tons in 2016 to 486,698 tons in 2023. On the other hand, the mechanization rate of field crops cultivation was 63.3% in 2021 whereas the mechanization rate harvesting operations was low at 31.6%, and the mechanization rate of radish harvesting operations was particularly low at 10.4%, resulting in significant labor consumption for transportation and storage operations other than harvesting. To meet the increasing demand, it is necessary to increase the production and harvesting process efficiency. Therefore, this study aimed to develop a simulation model of the driving part of a self-propelled two-row radish harvester using AMESim software and evaluated the driving performance under different collector load conditions (0 kg, 250 kg, 500 kg, and 1,000 kg). The results of the study showed that the driving speed varied from 1.58 m/s to 1.55 m/s even as the tonnage increased, indicating the stability of the system to the driving load. However, the torque and power increased with the weight of the tonnage, reaching a maximum of 402.61 Nm and 2.89 kW, respectively. In particular, the torque tended to increase by about 130.61 Nm and the required power increased by 0.91 kW when the load increased from 0 kg to 1,000 kg. These results, including the influence of the weight of the collector load on the driving performance can be used as an important basis for the design and operation of self-propelled radish harvesters in the future. This study provides a useful simulation model that can contribute to the mechanization and efficiency improvement of self-propelled two-row radish harvesters and has practical application in the context of the increasing need for agricultural mechanization, especially for radish cultivation.

Catfish have high economic value, fast growth, and are easy to cultivate. This is the reason why catfish cultivation is increasing. However, there are still obstacles in the cultivation process, namely the threat of disease, one of which is the Motile Aeromonas Septicaemia (MAS) disease caused by Aeromonas hydrophila bacteria. The countermeasure can be done by using active compounds found in plants, including banana stems. This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of giving banana stem extract to carp culture media and treating A. hydrophila disease. This research used an experiment with a completely randomized design. The treatments tested were the addition of banana stem extract at a dose of 5% (treatment A), 10% (treatment B), 15% (treatment C), and antibiotics (treatment K-), and without extract treatment (treatment K+). Each treatment was repeated three times. The results showed that the administration of banana stem extract significantly affected the fish's erythrocytes, leukocytes, and blood glucose. Leukocyte differential observation showed that kepok banana stem extract had a significant effect on eosinophils, lymphocytes, and neutrophils but no significant effect on monocytes. In analyzing fish blood, the optimal values were 7.64±0.190a cells/mm3 for leukocytes, 3.60±0.116d cells/mm3 for erythrocytes, 65±6.028b mg/dl for glucose, 74.67±0.577d% for lymphocytes, 5.67±0.577a% for neutrophils, and 0±0a% for eosinophils. The results indicate that treatment B with 10% kepok banana stem extract was the most effective in administering the extract to catfish infected with A. hydrophila bacteria.Keywords:Dumbo catfishLeukocytesErythrocytesGlucoseMusa AcuminataAeromonas hydrophila

Sea cucumbers are a type of marine organism with significant economic worth and potential applications as nutraceuticals. This marine organism possesses possibly useful chemicals, making it a viable alternative for the fisheries product processing businesses. The objective of this study was to assess the efficacy of the methanol extract of Holothuria atra in preventing the formation of calculi and its ability to inhibit the growth of bacteria. Extraction was performed using the maceration method with methanol as the solvent over a period of 72 hours The analysis revealed the presence of four bioactive components in the methanol fraction: alkaloid, triterpenoids, flavonoids, and saponins. In vitro anticalculi activity was assessed by measuring the decomposition of kidney stones (Ca) using an atomic absorption spectrophotometer (AAS). The maximum decline of calcium stones was regarded at a concentration of 500 ppm of sea cucumber extract. The disc diffusion method was employed to assess the antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. The inhibition zone diameter was measured at all concentrations (25%, 50%, 75%, and 100%), indicating their potential as antibacterial agents. The greatest level of antibacterial effectiveness against Escherichia coli was observed at a concentration of 50%, resulting in a zone of inhibition of 1.90 mm. In contrast, the most significant antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus was observed at a concentration of 25%, resulting in a zone of inhibition measuring 4.50 mm. Keywords:Holothuria atraExtractMethanolAnticalculiAntibacteria
Mapping West Java Northern waters quality using sea water quality standards

Poor water quality caused by the influence of activities on land and sea can disrupt the ecosystem and the existence of fish resources in coastal areas. Damage to fish habitat impacts fishing areas, resulting in a decrease in fishermen’s catches. Fish resources will move further away from the coast, resulting in a narrower utilization of sea space for small fishermen and leading to conflicts. Thus, this study aims to analyze the quality of the aquatic environment and map the pollution degradation in the northern waters of West Java Province. The survey method was used in this study. The types of water quality data measured were water clarity, sea surface temperature, salinity, light attenuation coefficient, total suspended solids, and chlorophyll-a. In-situ seawater quality measurements in coastal waters were carried out at 30 points. In-situ water quality data was compared with remote sensing image data. Water quality parameter data was analyzed descriptively by comparing the results obtained with seawater quality standards for marine biota based on the Decree of the Minister of Environment No. 51 of 2004 concerning Seawater Quality Standards. The results showed that the light attenuation coefficient and salinity parameter had an average that did not comply with the seawater quality standards for biota. The parameters of chlorophyll-a, brightness, suspended solids load, and sea surface temperature were still within the threshold of seawater quality standards for biota life (good condition). The environmental conditions of the northern waters of West Java Province are classified as good, were around 3,261.703 km2, while the lightly polluted area was around 3,043.452 km2. The northern waters of West Java Province, classified as lightly polluted, were concentrated in two locations, the northern waters of Bekasi, and Indramayu.Keywords:Quality standardsDegradationWest JawaWater qualityMapping

Lifestyle intervention has proven effective in managing older adults’ frailty and mild cognitive impairment issues. What remains unclear is how best to encourage lifestyle changes among older adults with frailty and Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI). We conducted searches in electronic literature searches such as PubMed, Scopus, Cochrane Reviews, ProQuest, and grey resources to find articles published in English between January 2010 and October 2023. This review focused on research using a qualitative study design. We extracted data on publication year, location, the aim of the study, study population, involved intervention, barriers, motivations, and preferences reported in the articles. Out of 5226 retrieved, 253 articles were selected after the deletion of duplicates, title, abstract screening, and. We included fourteen articles for final analysis at the end of the review process. The two main themes generated from this review are intrinsic and extrinsic factors in motivations and barriers to lifestyle changes. The most reported motivators were the perceived benefits of lifestyle intervention and self-efficacy. Among the obstacles participants face are perceived adverse effects of intervention, lack of knowledge, existing impairment (physical or mental), and social support. Lifestyle change motivations and barriers among older adults mainly were intrinsic factors such as the perceived benefit of the intervention, self-efficacy, knowledge, familial commitment, and existing impairments. There is a need to empower older adults to overcome the barriers with support from healthcare professionals, the community, and the family.
Interview with Paco Bezerra: Muero porque no muero or Francoism strikes back
Authors: Pujol Anton
Published: January 2025

Paco Bezerra’s new play Muero porque no muero. La doble vida de Teresa (I Die for I Die Not. The Double Life of Teresa) was geared to be a success. Critics certainly agreed. In 2021, Spain’s SGAE (Sociedad General de Autores y Editores – General Society of Authors and Editors) awarded Bezerra’s play as Best of the Year. And it had also been chosen as one of five plays to be performed by the European Theatre Project’s Prospero-Extended Theatre for their 2022–23 season. The play was to receive its premiere at Teatros del Canal in January 2023 and then travel throughout Europe. But in the summer of 2022, Bezerra received a call from Blanca Li, the director of Teatros del Canal, informing him that Muero had been cancelled due to budgetary constraints, an excuse that would soon be rebutted. It would soon be clear that the cancellation of the production of Bezerra’s play was an act of censorship instigated by the extreme-right party Vox (with the help of the Popular Party, or PP, who governed the Madrid region). In my interview with Bezerra, we discuss what happened and the impact that it has had not only on his career but also on the Spanish theatre landscape.
