Prevalence of premenstrual syndrome and its psychological effects among university students who participate and do not participate in resistance training
Authors: Silva Eliane Aragão da , Pires Daniel Alvarez
Published: May 2021

ABSTRACT The study aimed to investigate the prevalence and effects of premenstrual syndrome (PMS) on the psychological factors of university students who do and do not participate in resistance training. The initial sample consisted of 81 participants, and the prevalence of PMS was 64.2%. Forty women diagnosed with PMS were divided into two groups: women who participated in (GP) and did not participate in (GNP) resistance training. The intergroup comparison showed significant differences (with higher scores in the GNP) in the items: difficulty concentrating, lack of energy, and feeling under pressure, and they reported a greater influence of the symptoms on their family relationships. It is concluded that women who participate in resistance training have reduced indicators of some psychological symptoms of PMS.

Published: May 2021

ABSTRACT Urinary incontinence (UI) is defined as the involuntary leakage of urine and stress urinary incontinence (SUI) is a common type of UI, characterized by the loss of urine during physical effort, including running. Objective Analyze UI and associated factors in female road runners in the Brazilian Federal District (DF). Method Cross-sectional descriptive study that investigated UI by applying an adapted questionnaire to female road runners in DF. Results 94 runners, 3.2% of whom reported UI and 56.6% complained of SUI. Body mass index (BMI), birth weight of largest baby and episiotomy were factors associated of SUI. Conclusion Although few women reported UI while running, the results suggest that SI needs to be addressed, especially when associated with risk factors.
Plano de imanência e linguagem: a distância daquilo que “podemos” no campo das práticas corporais de movimento
Authors: Costa Marcelo Adolfo Duque Gomes da , Almeida Felipe Quintão de
Published: May 2021

RESUMO A partir do conceito de imanência em sua leitura deleuziana, este trabalho objetivou pensar a criação de si como forma de afirmar nossa existência e nosso desejo. O exercício analítico realizado discutiu o aspecto problemático de se justificar a linguagem por seu caráter hermenêutico e seus reflexos em nossa potência de agir. Esse é o resultado de uma produção subjetiva que, ao capturar o desejo, nos distancia daquilo que “podemos” e acaba por diminuir nossa capacidade de ação no mundo das práticas corporais de movimento.
Pugilismo e humor na imprensa italiana em São Paulo: representações no periódico Il Pasquino Coloniale (1915-1939)
Authors: Doi Igor Cavalcante , Góis Junior Edivaldo
Published: May 2021

RESUMO Esta pesquisa teve por objetivo evocar as representações da prática pugilística produzidas pelo jornal ítalo-paulista Il Pasquino Coloniale entre os anos 1915 e 1939, como parte de um estudo sobre esportes entre grupos imigrantes. Os resultados mostraram que o boxe era representado de modos diversos, por vezes com críticas à sua violência e ao dinheiro envolvido, mas também com paixão e empolgação. Como semanal humorístico, o Pasquino também troçava a identidade “científica” do boxe moderno e, em ocasiões específicas, debatia ora o caráter natural de sua violência, ora a construção do boxeador pela experiência.
Index of Biotic Integrity based on fish assemblages for pampean streams and its implementation along the Del Azul stream (Buenos Aires province, Argentina)
Authors: Masson Ignacio , Castelain José Gonzalez , Dubny Sabrina , Othax Natalia , Peluso Fabio
Published: May 2021

Abstract: Aim Freshwater communities respond to abiotic and biotic changes in the environment, and are widely used as indicators of environmental integrity. Fish have been one of the most used biological groups for this purpose. The Del Azul stream located in the pampean region of Argentina has been monitored using a physicochemical approach with this monitoring being sporadic due to economic and operational constraints associated with the chemical analyses. In this paper we developed an Index of Biotic Integrity for the Del Azul stream (IBIA) based on Karr´s Index of Biotic Integrity as an alternative. Methods We computed two existent physicochemical indexes for comparison, one of them is the NSF-WQI and the other one is a local index referred to as Water Quality Index for Del Azul Stream and based on the former. Results The three indexes followed similar trends along the examined reaches, showing good conditions in the upper basin, poor conditions just downstream of the urban area and a recovery state further downstream in the basin. Conclusions Since the IBIA followed the same patterns as the physicochemical indexes, has a lower implementation cost and it is simpler to apply, we promote it as an alternative to the traditional physicochemical water quality monitoring for pampean streams.
Flow Injection Amperometric Evaluation of Trolox Equivalent Antioxidant Capacity of Chocolates with Different Cocoa Content at a Boron-Doped Diamond Electrode

Published: May 2021

Research background. The objective of this paper is to introduce an instrumentally simple analytical tool for determination of cocoa solids content in chocolates. This electroanalytical method is based on amperometric oxidation of all present antioxidants in chocolates at boron-doped diamond electrode (BDDE) that is integrated in a flow injection analysis (FIA) wall-jet electrode system.
Experimental approach. As part of optimisation, thirteen commonly occurring antioxidants were investigated using cyclic voltammetry at BDDE in 0.1 mol/L phosphate buffer with different methanol (MEOH) content. Working parameters, such as of MeOH content, flow rate, and detection potential, were optimised. Principally, the height of the oxidation peak (current response) representing the oxidation of the sum of antioxidants (Total Antioxidant Content; TAC) was expressed as Trolox content.
Results and conclusions. For analytical purpose, a linear range from 5.0 to 100 mg/L Trolox described by regression equation and characterized by correlation of determination 0.9994 was found. Obtained high positive correlation between determined values of Trolox equivalent antioxidant capacity (TEAC) and cocoa contents characterised by correlation coefficient of 0.9187 for eight randomly selected samples (one white, two milk, and five dark chocolates) confirmed the fact that cocoa solids represent the main source of antioxidants (reducing agents).
Novelty and scientific contribution. The research demonstrates that TEAC values could be probably considered as additional marker of cocoa content in the chocolate analysis to commonly used theobromine (authenticity of food products). The developed FIA method could therefore serve as simple analytical tools in the food quality control.

Secretory Meningioma: A Rare Entity That Can Be Confused Radiologically and Pathologically with Malignant Tumors
Authors: EREN KARANİS Meryem İlkay , KÜÇÜKOSMANOĞLU İlknur , ÇÖVEN İlker
Published: May 2021

AbstractMeningiomas are slow growing, extra axial brain tumors that originating from the meningothelial cells of the arachnoid. Meningiomas are the most common brain tumors, however secretory meningiomas are extremely rare variant and can be confused radiologically and pathologically with malignant tumors. A 48 years old male was presented with a complaint of headache and visual impairment in the left eye. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed an extra axial mass lesion in the left pontocerebellar region, 57x48x30 mm in size, and marked edema around the mass. Microscopically, a tumoral lesion consisting ofuniform meningothelial cells with oval-round nuclei, thin vesiculated chromatin, and moderately eosinophilic cytoplasm was observed. The presence of epithelial differentiation characterized by pseudopsammom structures formed by lumens containing eosinophilic secretion was appointed among the tumor cells. Eosinophilic secretion within the lumens were highlighted with histochemical periodic acid schiff (PAS) stain. Immunoreaction was observed in the pseudopsammom structures and the surrounding tumor cells with carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), epithelial membrane antigen (EMA) and pan cytokeratin (Pan-CK). Tumor cells were immunopositive with Vimentin and progesterone receptor (PR). Ki67 proliferation index was determined as <1%. No necrosis or mitosis were detected. The tumor was reported as ‘‘secretory meningioma’’. No additional treatment was applied to the case and no recurrence was detected in 32 month follow-up after surgical resection. Although secretory meningiomas are not clinically important due to their benign course, differantial diagnosis is critical, since they can be confused with malign tumors because of marked brain edema radiologically, elevated serum CEA levels and epithelial differentiation.
"As ferramentas do sinhô nunca vão derrubar a casa grande: análise discursiva de uma tradução marginal
Authors: Roberta Calixto  , Araujo Peixoto Luisa , De Mesquita Silva Luciana , Giorgi Maria Cristina
Published: May 2021

Em conferência intitulada “The Master’s Tool Will Never Dismantle The Master’s House” (1984), a escritora afro-americana Audre Lorde declara ser preciso forjar novas ferramentas que contribuam para a desconstrução do racismo que, historicamente, subalterniza diversos grupos sociais. Partindo dessa proposta, utilizamos o referencial da Análise do Discurso de Maingueneau e Bakhtin, especialmente a linguagem-intervenção, e o conceito de Bassnett e Lefevere de tradução como reescrita para refletir sobre os efeitos de subjetividade em traduções que, por serem produzidas por pessoas que fazem parte de grupos marginalizados, têm a possibilidade de subverter a lógica das traduções realizadas por grandes editoras. Dessa forma, analisamos a tradução do referido discurso de Lorde para a língua portuguesa feita por Tatiana Nascimento — mulher, negra e lésbica —, com o objetivo discutir novas possibilidades de construção de realidades e subjetividades que podem ser produzidas a partir do que chamamos “traduções marginais”.

Authors: Henao Simón , Delgado Alba
Published: May 2021

Este artículo explora los vínculos entre la imaginación y la resistencia negra en el norte del Cauca. Para ello, se toma como caso Elástico de sombra, novela de Juan Cárdenas (2019), que permite indagar cómo la imaginación irrumpe en el discurso dominante para, a través de la acción de escribir «por detrás» exponer su contralado. La hipótesis principal sostiene que la narrativa del autor configura una escritura que hace inteligible a la resistencia, —esto es, le designa un lugar específico dentro del ordenamiento del lenguaje a la misma, dando a ver su permanencia en el tiempo y en el territorio.

Authors: Gómez-Martínez Raquel , Romero-Rodríguez Luis M.
Published: May 2021

Social networks are consolidated as spaces for the exchange of valuable content. It is not surprising to find spaces for the exchange of good teaching practices in virtual learning communities, so the objective of this study is to analyze, through the case study of #ElClaustrodeIG on Instagram, the educational content focused on teaching that is shared for the Ibero-American community in Spanish, as well as the analysis of the users who share their experiences and good practices in this social network. In order to do this, content analysis is first carried out, through an analysis sheet to 300 posts and a questionnaire is applied to 130 users of this hashtag on Instagram in order to analyze their patterns of use, their interests and motivations, their training in ICT and social networks, as well as the impact that the use of this social network has on their professional development and the gratification they expect. The results show that most of the publications are about good practices for primary and preschool education while most of the users think that Instagram is an ideal space for non-formal learning, applying in the classrooms many of the good practices shared in this coworking space.
Influencia de variables contextuales en el enfoque de enseñanza: relación entre enfoque de enseñanza y estilo de aprendizaje
Authors: Puiggali Allepuz Juan JPA , Tesouro Cid Montse
Published: May 2021

Se pretende analizar la influencia de variables contextuales en el enfoque de enseñanza utilizado por el docente y observar si existe relación entre el estilo de aprendizaje del alumno y el enfoque de enseñanza del docente. Se han aplicado 2 cuestionarios: el apartado B-Approaches to studying del ASSIST y un cuestionario adhoc sobre enfoques de enseñanza. Se invitó a participar a 1850 estudiantes de la Universidad de Girona si bien contestaron ambos cuestionarios 1252.Los resultados muestran que la modalidad de estudios, tipo de asignatura y curso afectan en el enfoque de enseñanza, así como éste también afecta al estilo de aprendizaje del alumno. En los estudios de Humanidades y Ciencias Sociales, así como en los cursos más bajos y en las asignaturas más prácticas los profesores tienden a utilizar un enfoque de enseñanza centrado en el alumno.Se concluye que un profesor no utiliza siempre el mismo tipo de enfoque, sino que éste se puede adaptar también a variables contextuales y que el enfoque de enseñanza utilizado por el profesor influye en la adopción del estilo de aprendizaje del estudiante: los alumnos que presentan un estilo profundo mayoritariamente indican que el profesor presenta un enfoque centrado en el alumno.
BReflections on a school for all: perceptions of families and teachers regarding the culture, policy, and practice of inclusion in Galicia
Authors: Fiuza Asorey María José , Baña Castro Manoel , Losada Puente Luisa
Published: May 2021

This paper examines, for the first time in Galicia (Spain), the culture, policy and practice of teachers and families in six primary schools, with the aim of understanding their reality from an inclusive perspective and, subsequently, being able to establish some course of action for improvement. Within the framework of participatory, descriptive, exploratory and explanatory research, an adaptation of the Index for Inclusion (Booth & Ainscow, 2011) was applied to a sample of 158 families and 85 teachers. Although both groups advocated for an inclusive education, there were some discrepancies between the intentions and the daily reality of schools. Differences between culture and practice were probably the element that most brought those contradictions to light. Some steps towards inclusion have been taken so far, generating a debate on how to improve it in schools. That debate has been led separately by education administrators, teachers or families of students with special educational needs, but a joint analysis of the voices of all families and teachers, key agents to promote a school for all, has been left aside. It is about time new trails were blazed to stimulate reflection and allow for further progress on the path to total inclusion.

Published: May 2021

O coco é um fruto presente na agricultura de diversos países, estimando-se um consumo 61,3 milhões de toneladas colhidas por ano em cerca de 12 milhões de hectares. O principal consumo do fruto está relacionado com a indústria alimentícia, sendo consumida a sua água, a polpa que é a parte comestível do fruto e que gera demais derivados alimentícios. Entretanto, após a utilização das partes comestíveis do fruto, é possível utilizar o seu subproduto extraindo a fibra do mesocarpo do fruto, sendo este compósito conhecido como fibra de coco. A fibra vegetal proveniente do coco, fibra de coco, é amplamente utilizada em diversos setores econômicos em função de suas características de durabilidade, rigidez, impermeabilidade, resistência contra ataques biológicos, resistência à tração e termoacústica, se destacando das demais fibras vegetais. Estas características estão ligadas com a sua composição de lignocelulósicos desta fibra, sendo que esta apresenta maiores concentrações de lignina (45 – 46%) em comparação com outras fibras naturais. Esta revisão narrativa é baseada em livros, artigos, seminários e demais obras científicas que abordam o tema de fibras vegetais e fibra de coco, sendo que o principal objetivo é fazer um levantamento sobre este compósito abordando sua origem, comportamentos químicos, físicos, mecânicos e características gerais.

Abstract

Coconut is a fruit present in agriculture in several countries, with an estimated consumption of 61.3 million tons of tons per year in about 12 million hectares. The main fruit consumption is related to the food industry, being consumed its water, the pulp that is the edible part of the fruit and that generates other food derivatives. However, after using the edible parts of the fruit, it is possible to use its by-product by extracting the fiber from the fruit's mesocarp, this composite being known as coconut fiber. Vegetable fiber from coconut, coconut fiber, is widely used in several different sectors due to its characteristics of durability, rigidity, impermeability, resistance against biological resistance, tensile and thermoacoustic resistance, standing out from other vegetable fibers. These characteristics are associated with its lignocellulosic composition of this fiber, being present higher lignin (45 - 46%) in comparison with other natural fibers. This narrative review is based on books, articles, seminars and other scientific works that address the topic of vegetable fibers and coconut fiber, and the main objective is to survey this composite addressing its origin, chemical, organic, mechanical and general features.

Abstract

Dengue, transmitted through the bite of  Aedes Aegypti mosquito, is considered an endemic disease with worldwide spread, and can evolve from mild to severe and even lethal. Countries with tropical, hot and humid climates, such as Brazil, have favorable and facilitating conditions for the reproduction of their vector and an increase in the transmissibility and contamination chain, making it a serious public health problem. Given this scenario, the purpose of this study was to synthesize the available information on Aedes aegypti and dengue, covering general aspects of the disease and the  dengue panorama in Brazil and in the world in order to compile educational material. The studies related to the theme were found by searching the Virtual Health Library, PubMed and Embase. Documents from the Ministry of Health and the World Health Organization on dengue management were also consulted. Dengue is a serious public health problem, with several conditions that facilitate transmission, four different serotypes that provide reinfection, with no specific treatment and no vaccine available. Thus, the most effective way to prevent its spread is through prevention. Thus, people all over the world must have the necessary knowledge and information on prevention, diagnosis and treatment, in order to avoid its transmission, dissemination and lethality.

COVID-19 causes a wide range of clinical symptoms. COVID-19 hematologic and cardiovascular involvement induces thromboembolic symptoms in various organs, most notably venous thromboembolism (VTE); peripheral arterial involvement is uncommon. Acute limb ischemia (ALI) is a vascular emergency known as a dramatic drop in arterial perfusion of a limb that poses a challenge to the limb's viability. Given routine need for thromboprophylaxis, hospitalised COVID-19 patients are at an elevated risk of ALI, limb loss, or even mortality. Understanding the various specific symptoms of COVID-19 patients, especially extrapulmonary manifests, is crucial for both better patient care and the development of adequate infection prevention methods. Although ALI is a complication of COVID-19 in hospitalized patients, it is now being understood that it can arise in patients with mild COVID-19 symptoms, and that ALI can be the first presenting sign of COVID-19 even in the absence of respiratory symptoms. It is recommended that acutely admitted COVID-19 cases should be given pharmacologic thromboprophylaxis with low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) or fondaparinux unless there is a chance of bleeding or contraindicated. Anticoagulant treatment, primarily with LMWH, correlates strongly with an improved prognosis in serious COVID-19 patients who follow sepsis-induced coagulopathy requirements or have significantly elevated D-dimer levels.
Wielki zryw małego narodu: zapomniany ruch karabaski (1988–1990)
Authors: Ordyan Gor , Pomieciński Adam
Published: May 2021

W 1989 r. w państwach Europy Wschodniej doszło do przełomowych wydarzeń, które zmieniły historię tego regionu. „Okrągły stół” w Polsce, upadek muru berlińskiego czy „aksamitna rewolucja” w Czechosłowacji zapoczątkowały procesy liberalizacji i usamodzielnienia się od ZSRR. Z czasem transformacje te nazwano „Rewolucjami Europy Wschodniej”. Przyczyniły się one do ostatecznego upadku reżimu sowieckiego i sprawiły, że w początkach lat 90. minionego wieku obszar postradziecki uległ znaczącym przeobrażaniom społecznym, politycznym i gospodarczym.

Rok przed wspomnianymi wydarzeniami rozpoczął się wielki ruch demokratyczny w najmniejszej republice Związku Radzieckiego – Armenii, który podważył imperialną politykę władz sowieckich. Z czasem przyjął on nazwę ruchu karabaskiego. Zryw społeczeństwa armeńskiego, który wybuchł w 1988 r., wyraził potrzebę demokratyzacji społeczeństwa radzieckiego i odegrał znaczącą rolę w dążeniach wolnościowych narodu ormiańskiego. Pomimo tego niewiele wiadomo na temat tego ruchu, który powszechnie kojarzony bywa z antagonizmami etnicznymi między Armenią a Azerbejdżanem. Ruch karabaski pozostał „niezauważony” w czasach sowieckich, ponieważ media reżimowe blokowały informacje o masowych wystąpieniach Ormian i konfliktach na Kaukazie. Współcześnie kwestia ruchu karabaskiego jest niewygodna z powodów politycznych, zwłaszcza gdy mówimy o stosunkach armeńsko-rosyjskich.

Zasadniczym celem artykułu jest rekonstrukcja działań ruchu karabaskiego w latach 1988–1990, a także próba zrozumienia jego wpływu na procesy, które przyczyniły się do upadku Związku Radzieckiego w kontekście przemian Europy Wschodniej.

Проаналізовано еволюція моделювання ринку іпотеки в контексті реалізації стратегії технологічного розвитку національної економіки, що дозволило врахувати недоліки і переваги всіх моделей, сучасні соціально-економічні проблеми та імплементувати ринок іпотеки в механізм досягнення структурних змін національної економіки: перетворення сучасної економіки споживання в ефективну виробничу економіку. Обґрунтовано підходи до розв’язання сучасних проблем іпотечного кредитування України через упровадження спеціалізованих іпотечно-промислових центрів, які передбачають: 1) диверсифікацію первинних джерел фінансування з метою їх максимізації та зниження ризиків; 2) наявність промислового підприємства-партнера, що забезпечує високу ефективність виробництва та має перманентний попит на товари чи послуги; 3) управління моделлю в одних підприємницьких руках, зокрема банку, що забезпечує координацію та оптимальний розподіл прибутків між учасниками; 4) доцільність перманентного контролю з боку держави за функціонуванням моделі з метою зниження технічних, фінансових і моральних ризиків для суб’єктів ринку іпотеки. Доведено універсальність запропонованої моделі іпотечного кредитування для промисловості (індустріалізація: оновлення парку обладнання та устаткування, упровадження технологічних інновацій), АПК (модернізація сільськогосподарської техніки, розвиток аграрної науки, впровадження світових технологій щодо рослинництва і тваринництва, підвищення стандартів виробництва харчової галузі до світового рівня), житлового будівництва та об’єднаних територіальних громад (заміна парку міської техніки — автобусів, тролейбусів, трамваїв) щодо вирішення питання інвестування поточних завдань.

Published: May 2021

Анотація Банківські установи схильні до зміни бізнес-моделі залежно від зовнішніх економічних умов, які можуть бути обумовлені як змінами потреб ринку, так і змінами у конкурентному середовищі чи нормативно-правовому регулюванні. Залежно від різновиду банків за бізнес-моделями, вони по різному можуть реагувати на вплив зовнішніх та внутрішніх факторів. Така ситуація в подальшому може призвести не тільки до змін у бізнес-архітектурі банківського сектору, але й вплинути на темпи економічного зростання країни. В статті розглянуто підходи до класифікації банків за бізнес-моделями, проведено критичний аналіз існуючих підходів до класифікації банків за бізнес-моделями. Дослідження систематизації та класифікації банків за бізнес-моделями виявило що існуючі підходи до класифікації є досить фрагментарними та недостатньо розширеними. Проведені автором систематизація та узагальнення існуючих у світовій практиці теоретичних підходів до класифікації різновидів бізнес-моделей банків, дозволили обґрунтувати авторську класифікацію банків за їхніми бізнес-моделями, що включає нові класифікаційні ознаки, зокрема, історичні передумови та розвиток інституційного середовища, вплив банків на соціально-економічні процеси в державі та вектор економічного зростання, впровадження інновацій та інформаційних технологій, асортимент банківських продуктів та послуг, розвиток мережі філій. Запропонований у роботі підхід, на відміну від існуючих, є комплексним та сприятиме вибору банком найбільш оптимальної та дієвої бізнес-моделі, що повною мірою враховуватиме вплив сучасних умов господарювання. Розширена класифікація, яку можна було б використовувати в середині країни та за її межами дозволить гармонізувати загальний підхід, який постійно узгоджується та регулярно оновлюється, враховуючи мінливий ландшафт банківського сектору.

Abstract. The article analyzes the historical periods of development of the taxation system in Soviet times and during the independence of Ukraine. The stages of transformation of the country’s taxation system and the deduction of the development of the national taxation system are outlined. It was found that during the years of independence there were five transformations of the tax system in 1991, 1995, 1999, 2011 and 2015, respectively. The preconditions of each of the specified stages of realization of transformation of system of the taxation are analyzed. Among the key preconditions for transformational changes in certain periods are: rapid deterioration of key macroeconomic indicators, implementation of laws and regulations on the establishment of the tax police and the transformation of the State Tax Administration into a central executive body as a controlling body for legal entities and individuals, changes in the composition and mechanisms of tax calculation, chaos and invalidity of the system of tax benefits, changes in the legalization of the wage fund and in the system of compulsory state social insurance. The functions of taxes as defining concepts of formation of the tax system of the country that were in each period defined above are investigated. The types and role of tax relief as a tool of state tax regulation and stimulation of socio-economic processes are considered. The assessment of the process of transformation of the tax system identified the existing criteria for reform, including diversity, complementarity and consistency, compromise and evolution, the depth of transformation and innovation of the tax system of Ukraine. It is proved that the tools of transformation of the implementation of the taxation system of Ukraine used in these processes did not always correspond to the peculiarities of the socio-economic situation of the country and the tax policy of the state goal and set of tasks of economic strategy. Existing shortcomings in the Ukrainian taxation system hinder economic growth and lead to high economic shadowing. Thus, the application of these tools in the process of transformation of the tax system has partially solved the existing problems, a significant number of identified tasks currently remain unresolved.

СОЦІАЛЬНО-ПСИХОЛОГІЧНИЙ АСПЕКТ НАЛАГОДЖЕННЯ ВЗАЄМОДІЇ УЧАСНИКІВ КЛАСТЕРНОГО УТВОРЕННЯ
Authors: Смолич Д. , Завадська О.
Published: May 2021

Анотація. Представлено дослідження сутності поняття «кластер». Виокремлено ключові ознаки кластерного утворення: географічна локалізація, наявність групи компаній, кооперування і наявність конкуренції всередині кластера, інноваційна спрямованість. Обгрунтовано, що інноваційність є ключовою ознакою відмінності кластерів від мережевих об’єднань підприємств і доведено необхідність орієнтації кластерного утворення на виробництво кінцевої інноваційної продукції (у тому числі матеріальної та/або нематеріальної), постійного моніторингу шляхів підвищення своєї конкурентоздатності. Досліджено соціально-психологічні аспекти налагодження кластерної взаємодії. Дослідження показало, що особливу роль при формуванні кластера відіграють соціально-психологічні прояви людей, перш за все керівників компаній, адже саме вони ухвалюють вольове рішення про налагодження кластерної взаємодії. Проаналізовано соціально-психологічні перешкоди, упередження, а також спонування щодо кластерної взаємодії, які характерні для керівника лідируючої в кластері компанії, керівника підприємства, що відповідає спеціалізації кластера, але не є лідером на ринку, працівників зазначених компанії; керівника і працівників наукових установ, влади, громадськості. Установлено, що збереження конкурентної боротьби між учасниками кластеру є ключовим аспектом, що викликає найбільшу кількість соціально-психологічних конгнітивних упереджень при налагодженні кластерної взаємодії. У дослідженні окреслено, що розуміння синергетичного ефекту від кластерної взаємодії допомагає спростувати відповідні психологічні упередження потенційних учасників щодо налагодження співпраці.
Ключові слова: кластер; синергія; соціальна психологія; когнітивні упередження; психологічні спонування; взаємодія.

The Art and Science of Jaggery Making: A Review
Authors: Selvi V. Manimozhi , Mathialagan M. , Mohan S.
Published: May 2021

Jaggery is the most popular traditional Indian sweetener produced from sugarcane juice by concentration, without molasses being separated. It is a good source of minerals and nutrients, and has several medicinal values as well. With the increasing demand of this nutritive sweetener, efforts are being made to develop a standard manufacturing package that will increase its productivity besides quality improvement in terms of hygiene, standardization of shape, size and storability. The thermal and overall efficiencies of plants producing jaggery are very small due to the loss of thermal energy through flue gasses and un-designed plant parameters of construction. Storing jaggery is also a major problem. Since, the quality of invert sugars and mineral salts, which are hygroscopic in nature, is greatly affected. This intends us to study the technological upgradations used for the production and preservation of jaggery in order to prioritize the required advancements. This review provides information of the technical upgrading of manufacturing plants for jaggery and the preservation of jaggery using various storage and packaging methods.
Gender Inequalities in the Eastern Neighbourhood Region
Authors: Carter Becky
Published: May 2021

This rapid review examines evidence on the structural causes and drivers of gender inequalities in the Eastern Neighbourhood region and how these gender inequalities contribute to instability in the region. While the Eastern Neighbourhood region performs relatively well on gender equality compared with the rest of the world, women and girls continue to face systemic political and economic marginalisation and are vulnerable to gender-based violence. Research on Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia, and Moldova identifies the key underlying cause to be a set of traditional patriarchal gender norms, intersecting with conservative religious identities and harmful customary practices. These norms do not operate in isolation: the literature highlights that gender inequalities are caused by the interplay of multiple factors (with women’s unequal economic resources having a critical effect), while overlapping disadvantages affect lived experiences of inequalities. Other key factors are the region’s protracted conflicts; legal reform gaps and implementation challenges; socio-economic factors (including the impact of COVID-19); and governance trends (systemic corruption, growing conservatism, and negative narratives influenced by regional geopolitics). Together these limit women and girls’ empowerment; men and boys are also affected negatively in different ways, while LGBT+ people have become a particular target for societal discrimination in the region. Global evidence – showing that more gender unequal societies correlate with increased instability – provides a frame of reference for the region’s persistent gender inequalities.

Çok yönlü ve karmaşık bir süreç olan eğitim, birçok faktörün etkisi altında gerçekleşmektedir. Öğretim materyalleri, öğretmenin meslekî yeterlilikleri, öğrenci tercihleri ve müfredat; bu faktörlerden ilk akla gelenlerdir. En az bunlar kadar önemli olan bir diğer unsur ise eğitim ortamlarının fiziksel koşulları ve tasarımıdır. Bu araştırmanın amacı, mekânsal kalitesi yüksek bir Bilişim Teknolojisi (BT) sınıfının sahip olması gereken özelliklerin belirlenmesidir. Çok aşamalı karma yöntemin kullanıldığı araştırma, dört aşamada tamamlanmıştır. İlk olarak BT öğretmenlerinin görev yaptıkları okullardaki BT sınıflarının mekânsal kalitesine yönelik görüşleri anket yoluyla alınmıştır. İkinci aşamada bir BT sınıfının mekânsal kalitesini artırmak için neler yapılması gerektiği konusunda deneyimli BT öğretmenleri ile mülakatlar gerçekleştirilmiştir. Anket ve mülakatlardan elde edilen nicel ve nitel bulgular bir arada değerlendirilerek ortaokul BT sınıflarının mekânsal kalitesini artıracak tasarım önerileri geliştirilmiştir. Bu önerilerin geliştirilmesi sürecinde bir BT alan uzmanı ve eğitim yapıları konusunda uzman bir mimarın görüşlerine de başvurulmuştur. Üçüncü aşamada, geliştirilen öneriler temel alınarak altı farklı BT sınıf modeli tasarlanmıştır. Tasarımlar iki ve üç boyutlu görsellere dönüştürülmüştür. Son aşamada öğretmen ve öğrencilerin sınıf tasarımlarına yönelik tercihlerini belirmek amacıyla anketler yapılmıştır. Araştırma sonucunda bir BT sınıfının sahip olması gereken mekânsal kalite göstergeleri ortaya koyulmuştur. Bu göstergeler; donatılar, altyapı, malzeme ve güvenlik, tesisat ve mekânsal organizasyon başlıkları altında sunulmaktadır.
Učinkovitost kognitivnega treninga z zbirko Misleca pri otrocih v srednjem otroštvu
Authors: Strojnik Zala , Podlesek Anja
Published: May 2021

Študije na področju učinkovitosti kognitivnega treninga ne kažejo enotnih rezultatov. Medtem ko so se v nekaterih pokazali pozitivni učinki treninga na fluidno inteligentnost ter druge kognitivne sposobnosti, se v drugih niso. Študij, ki bi preverjale učinkovitost kognitivnega treninga pri normativnih otrocih, je malo. Prav tako so redke študije, ki vključujejo večpodročni kognitivni trening. Namen naše raziskave je bil ugotoviti, kakšen je vpliv kognitivnega treninga v obliki rednega reševanja miselnih nalog iz zbirke Misleca na kognitivne sposobnosti v obdobju srednjega otroštva. V raziskavi je sodelovalo 38 otrok povprečne starosti 8 let in 5 mesecev (SD = 3 mesece), ki so bili po naključju razdeljeni na polovici, v eksperimentalno in kontrolno skupino. Po začetnih testiranjih fluidne inteligentnosti, verbalne fluentnosti, delovnega spomina, sposobnosti preklapljanja, inhibicije in vidno-prostorskega načrtovanja so se za eksperimentalno skupino pričeli treningi, ki so potekali v obdobju šestih tednov po trikrat na teden. Otroci so po vsakem posameznem treningu poročali o motivaciji za trening. Kontrolna skupina je bila pasivna. Po šestih tednih so sledila ponovna testiranja s kognitivnimi testi. Rezultati so pokazali pozitiven vpliv treninga na dosežke na Ravenovih Barvnih progresivnih matrikah kot meri fluidne inteligentnosti, medtem ko se učinek treninga na ostale kognitivne sposobnosti ni pokazal. Rezultati so prav tako pokazali, da se je zdel otrokom trening zanimiv in so bili večinoma motivirani pri reševanju nalog.
Kognitivno spodbudno okolje lahko ublaži višje nevronske potrebe za procesiranje vidnih dražljajev po večdnevni hospitalizaciji

Dolgotrajna obdobja popolne gibalne neaktivnosti ali horizontalnega ležanja sprožijo v človeškem telesu različne spremembe na funkcionalni in metabolni ravni. Prilagoditve centralnega živčnega sistema, povezane s horizontalnim ležanjem, so manj poznane in še ne dovolj preučene. Namen te raziskave je bil oceniti možganske elektrofiziološke spremembe z uporabo metode z dogodkom povezanih potencialov (ERP) po 14-dnevnem horizontalnem ležanju in 12 zaporednih vadbah računalniškega kognitivnega treninga (RKT). Šestnajst starejših (Mstarost= 60 let) zdravih prostovoljcev je bilo naključno razdeljenih v intervencijo RKT in aktivno kontrolno skupino. Vsi udeleženci so izvajali meritve ERP pred in po horizontalnem ležanju na podlagi fovealne vidne predstavitve kroga na črni podlagi. Po 14-dnevnem horizontalnem ležanju je analiza ERP pokazala povečano amplitudo P1 (p = ,012), zmanjšano latenco P1 (p = ,024) in povečano amplitudo P2 (p = ,036) pri kontrolni skupini, medtem ko sta se v skupini RKT latenci P1 (p = ,023) in P2 skrajšali (p = ,049). Naši rezultati kažejo, da daljša obdobja gibalne neaktivnosti ali horizontalnega ležanja sprožijo, tudi z vidika centralne prilagoditve, dodatno rekrutacijo nevronov, zato je treba taka obdobja zmanjšati na najmanjšo možno mero. Ugotovljeno je bilo tudi, da lahko RKT služi kot orodje za ublažitev upada. Prihodnje raziskave bi se morale osredotočiti še na druge vidike prilagajanja centralnega živčnega sistema po obdobjih imobilizacije/hospitalizacije, da bi izboljšali razumevanje posledic gibalne neaktivnosti in njenih učinkov na kortikalno aktivnost ter razvili ustrezne protiukrepe za blaženje funkcionalne disregulacije.
