Detection the Dust Storms Using MODIS Reflection Mode
Authors: Jalal Fatima , Mahdi Alaa S.
Published: July 2024

In previous years, most regions of the Middle East suffered from frequent dust storms, Iraq at the top of that where Iraq was classified as the fifth most vulnerable country to climate change according to the Paris Climate Agreement; the frequent dust storms are considered the most prominent effects of climate change, which are a result of lack of rain and drought, and thus desertification and desertification. The storms appear when the winds blow. This research reviews using of space data, MODIS (Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer, satellite images), and its two platforms, Terra and Aqua, to monitor storms movement and determine the starting point source using the PCA (Principal Component Analysis algorithm) in ENVI and sub-software MATLAB for (MOD09GA) and (MYD09GA) that represents the reflectivity daily monitoring, the first layer from HDF file of MODIS data red band, 620-670 nm, was used. The period was studied in research in May of 2022 with the kernel of PCA containing five bands represented by the day of the storm and two days before and after the storm for the study area located Coordinates: 35.0468, 43.0305.  The results determined that the source of dust storms are cross-border storms that are not local in origin; the estimated area of the storm that covered large regions of Iraq by (351353.45) km2 for 2022-5-5, (308024.9.km2) for the day 2022-5-16 and with an estimated area (326933.35 km2) for the day 2022-5-23.

Retornos maravillosos. Lecturas de Wifredo Lam en Lydia Cabrera, Alejo Carpentier y Aimé Césaire
Authors: Seligmann Katerina Gonzalez
Published: July 2024

Cuban painter Wifredo Lam (1909-1982) returned to the Caribbean in 1941 after spending eighteen years in Spain and France. In the following four years his painting practice transformed, generating the iconic imagery that he would become known for inventing. His return from Europe figures prominently in essays that Lydia Cabrera, Alejo Carpentier, and Aimé Césaire wrote about him soon after his 1943 completion of La jungla, his most famous painting. These Caribbean writers had close relationships of friendship and collaboration with Lam, and while their essays have become important sources for Lam criticism, they rarely receive critical analysis. In my analysis, I am interested in how they illuminate the role of return in shaping the dichotomy that Alejo Carpentier went on to establish between surrealism and the Americas-located aesthetic he dubbed “lo real maravilloso.” For Carpentier, the aesthetic of the marvelous that the surrealists sought to render emanated readily from social reality in the Americas. I understand this idea to be predicated upon his own return from Europe, and I argue that his earlier work on Lam, alongside Cabrera’s and Césaire’s, offers coordinates for a theory of return, from Europe and surrealism, through which to understand the real-marvelous aesthetic in Lam.
The Chosen Land of Black Humor: André Breton's Construction of Mexico
Authors: Flores Tatiana
Published: July 2024

This essay discusses the construction of Mexico in the writings of André Breton as “the surrealist place par excellence.” I focus on Breton’s claim that Mexico is “the chosen land of black humor” through an analysis of his literary sources and his engagement with the printmaker José Guadalupe Posada. I then address Breton’s presentation of Mexico in France through the 1939 exhibition Mexique, which was Frida Kahlo’s Parisian debut, and the article “Souvenir du Mexique,” published in the surrealist journal Minotaure.
Between Surrealism and Abstraction in Chile: The Decembristas in Print
Authors: Cole Lori
Published: July 2024

Frequently hailed as the first exhibition of surrealist art in Latin America, the 1935 exhibition organized in Lima by the Peruvian poet and artist César Moro, with the help of the Chilean artist María Valencia, in fact featured work by a group of Chilean artists known as the “Decembristas.” The Chilean poet Vicente Huidobro wrote for the 1933 catalogue, which primarily promoted abstraction. Moro’s exhibition, the group’s third, was identified as surrealist through its provocative catalogue and by its presence in the “Surrealism around the World” spread in Minotaure. Both Huidobro and Moro spent time in Paris and are cited as introducing Surrealism to Latin America. Moro in part claimed these artists as surrealist as an affront to Huidobro, dedicating a page in the catalogue to denouncing him. In turn, Huidobro published a scathing rebuttal of Moro in his magazine Vital, pitting many of the Decembristas against Moro. This essay traces the Decembristas’ exhibition histories and their print corollaries—including two magazines started by the Decembristas themselves—to examine the tension between Surrealism and abstraction and how these discourses were mobilized by Moro and Huidobro toward their own ends.
MODEL SEIR DENGAN PSEUDO-RECOVERY PADA KASUS TUBERKULOSIS DI JAWA BARAT
Authors: NAFISAH ZULFATIN , Adi Yudi Ari
Published: July 2024

Tuberkulosis menjadi salah satu penyakit menular yang sampai saat ini masih sulit ditanggulangi. Di Indonesia, Provinsi Jawa Barat menjadi salah satu provinsi dengan kasus tertinggi yang memiliki tingkat prevalensi 63%. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis model penyebaran penyakit tuberkulosis tipe SEIR (Susceptible-Exposed-Infected-Removed) dengan mempertimbangkan pengobatan dan adanya pemulihan semu (pseudo recovery). Model ini terdiri dari empat kelas yaitu, rentan, terpapar tetapi belum menularkan penyakit, terinfeksi dan dapat menularkan penyakit, dan sembuh semu. Data yang digunakan adalah data jumlah penderita penyakit tuberkulosis dari Dinas Kesehatan Provinsi Jawa Barat tahun 2011-2022. Fungsi Lyapunov dan prinsip invarian LaSalle digunakan untuk menunjukkan bahwa titik keseimbangan stabil secara global, dan tuberkulosis akan bertahan jika angka reproduksi dasar lebih besar dari satu. Sebaliknya, penyakit akan hilang jika angka reproduksi dasar kurang dari satu. Prosedur bifurkasi menggunakan teori manifold pusat digunakan untuk melakukan studi bifurkasi. Kondisi matematika memastikan terjadinya bifurkasi maju. Terakhir, simulasi numerik dilakukan untuk mendukung temuan teoretis.
La administración de dosis bajas de oxitocina, previa a la succión, no modifica la respuesta eyectoláctea en madres lactantes
Authors: Cobo Edgard
Published: July 2024

Se analizaron 64 registros de presión intramamaria en igual número de mujeres lactantes, que aceptaron participar en diferentes estudios diseñados para explorar la respuesta eyectoláctea a la succión del pezón. Después de aplicar estrictos criterios de inclusión diseñados para este estudio restrospectivo, se logró separar un grupo control y 2 grupos experimentales. Se estudiaron la latencia, el número de contracciones mamarias, el área bajo las mismas y la cantidad calculada de oxitocina liberada por estímulos de succión de 10 minutos de duración. No se encontraron diferencias estadísticamente significativas entre las respuestas mamarias de las pacientes que no recibieron oxitocina (grupo control), las que la recibieron (grupo experimental-1) y las que presentaron actividad eyectoláctea espontáneas antes de la succión (grupo experimental-2).

Published: July 2024

En Cali, Colombia, la mortalidad por enfermedad diarreica en menores de 5 años disminuyó notoriamente entre 1980 y 1989. En este último año se registraron 96 fallecimientos, cuyo análisis mostró que la mayoría era prevenibles. En consecuencia, el Programa de Control de Enfermedades Diarreicas de la Secretaría de Salud de Cali, con apoyo de la Organización Panamericana de la Salud, diseñó un Modelo de Vigilancia Epidemiológica con el propósito de tomar decisiones e identificar algunas variables relacionadas con esta mortalidad, como situación socioeconómica, causas de muerte, tipo y calidad de la atención recibida antes de morir, en hogar y en las instituciones. Entre febrero 1, 1990 y enero 31, 1991, se revisaron diariamente todos los certificados individuales de defunción correspondientes a menores de 5 años residentes en Cali, en quienes la enfermedad diarreica se registró, o se sospechó, como causa de muerte. Para recolectar la información se diseñaron 2 cuestionarios: uno para ser aplicado a la familia del niño de manera de autopsia verbal en una visita domiciliaria, y otro para ser aplicado en las instituciones de salud donde el niño recibió atención. Con la información obtenida se presentó y discutió cada caso en un Comité de Vigilancia Epidemiológica con la participación de los investigadores, trabajadores de la salud y personas comprometidas. Se llegó a conclusiones y se tomaron decisiones para mejorar la atención de casos. A medida que se avanzaba en el estudio, se fue ejecutando el modelo en las instituciones de salud pública. Se presenta el modelo y el análisis de 100 niños que murieron durante el período estudiado y se hace una revisión de éste hasta julio, 1995.

Authors: Ocampo José Mauricio , Romero Nhora , Saa Héctor A. , Herrera Julián A. , Reyes Ortiz Carlos A.
Published: July 2024

Objective: To determine the prevalence of religious practice, family dysfunction and social support in older people with deppresive symptoms. Methods: A descriptive study was performed in La Selva Health Center (Cali, Colombia) during 2001. Measures used were depression (GDS-Yesavage Scale), intrinsic/extrinsic religiosity measurement (Gorsuch-McPherson), family APGAR (Smilkstein scale) and frequency of religious practice. Univariate and bivariate analyses were performed. Results: 136 subjects were recruited with an average age of 69.2±6.4 year old, 78 (57%) were male, 82 (60%) were married, 21 (15%) were widowers, 133 (97.8%) were believers or had religious practice; 90% were catholics, 126 (93%) of patients prayed at least once day, 60 (44.4%) had intrinsic religiosity, 46 (33.8%) extrinsic religiosity, and 16 (11.8%) mixed religiosity; 40 (29.4%) had family dysfunction, 69 (50.7%) had not an adequate social support; 10 (7.3%) had high depressive symptoms (GDS >5/15) and 5 (3.7%) had severe depressive symptoms (GDS >10/15). The presence of chronic diseases, and being a widower had more frequency in older people with deppresive symptoms (p< 0.05). Most old subjects with depression had no regular religious practice (p=0.03). Conclussion: Male gender, presence of chronic diseases and being a widower had more frequency in old people with deppresive symptoms (p< 0.05). Religious practice could be an important support for old patients’ health.
Eikenella corrodens: Pathogenesis and clinic aspects.
Authors: Jaramillo Rubén Darío , Suárez Paola , Barraza Beatriz , Lara Paulina , Teherán Luis , Escamilla José Edgardo
Published: July 2024

The oral microbiological environment is unique and has a complex dynamic. It has been estimated that about 500 species of bacteria inhabit the human oral cavity and about 22 genera of them are the most dominant. The most frequently isolated from infected pockets of the oral cavity bacteria which are also potential pathogens form a small group of gramnegative microorganisms among which are included the following: Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans, Bacteroides forsythus, Campylobacter spp., Capnocytophoga spp., Eikenella corrodens, Fusobacterium nucleatum, Porphyromonas gingivalis, Prevotella intermedia, and Streptococcus milleri-group. E. corrodens is distinguished for being an opportunistic oral pathogen. It can also produce extra-oral infections acting either as an infectious agent itself or together with other bacteria. Referring to E. corrodens the present review will not only demonstrate different aspects about microbiological and biochemical characteristics, but also the actual knowledge on pathogenesis mechanism, like polysaccharides, outer membrane protein, lectin-like adhesin complex, pili, and other mechanisms will be systematized and discussed. Oral and extra-oral infections and other risking factors like endocarditis; osteomyelitis, intra-abdominal infections, their diagnosis and antimicrobial agents will be also considered in this paper.
En el trasfondo de la ‘colombianización’: el archipiélago de San Andrés visto por funcionarios del Estado colombiano (1888-1924)
Authors: Charry Joya Carlos Andrés
Published: July 2024

Se hace aquí un acercamiento a los imaginarios continentales que revistieron las conflictivas relaciones entre el Estado colombiano y la población del archipiélago, con el fin de evaluar el impacto sociocultural del proceso de formación del Estado nación en las Islas. De esta indagación emerge el proceso de configuración de la “colombianización”, política continental con la cual se pretendió integrar la población nativa de San Andrés a las dinámicas sociales nacionales. Los pormenores de dicha política son interpretados a partir de las observaciones hechas por tres viajeros continentales que visitaron al archipiélago en esta época, quienes evidencian la desviación y poca asimilación que sufría la “colombianización” del archipiélago.
Etica, asesoría económica y política económica
Authors: Stiglitz Joseph E.
Published: July 2024

La ética en el marco de la relación entre países de mayor y menor nivel de desarrollo impone que los países más desarrollados traten a los de menor desarrollo en forma equitativa, conscientes de la situación de desventaja en lo económico en que se encuentran los segundos, y con el reconocimiento de que aprovecharse  del propio poder económico inevitablemente lesionará a los pobres en los países en vía de desarrollo. En diversas ocasiones hemos visto un marcado incumplimiento de este precepto en las relaciones económicas globales: una agenda de comercio internacional establecida con miras a promover los intereses de los países más desarrollados, por lo menos parcialmente
El Plan de Desarrollo 2002-2006 ‘Hacia un Estado Comunitario’:
Authors: Roldán Luna Diego
Published: July 2024

La propuesta de Plan de Desarrollo del Gobierno es una lista de buenas intenciones enmarcadas en grandes propósitos para resolver viejos y crecientes problemas, pero no contiene políticas claras ni instrumentos pertinentes para su logro. Las principales estrategias económicas sobre las que descansa el Plan encaran fundamentalmente la solución de tres problemas críticos: el déficit o ‘hueco’ fiscal acumulado, jalonado por las transferencias y la contingente deuda pensional; el pago de la ingente deuda pública cierta, interna y externa; y, la situación de violencia interna que, a juicio de muchos analistas es, junto con la pobreza y la miseria, una de las manifestaciones de la inestabilidad social colombiana. No parece, pues, haber margen fiscal para que el Gobierno logre uno de sus objetivos: el del crecimiento y la generación de empleo.

Los músicos en Cali: profesión, prácticas y público en el siglo XX
Authors: Llano Isabel
Published: July 2024

La situación de los músicos profesionales en Cali a finales del siglo veinte es relativamente precaria e inestable, debido principalmente a la ausencia de un sólido mercado del arte y a la presencia de mecenazgos débiles. Todo ello pese a los evidentes progresos que muestra la profesionalización de la música a lo largo de todo el siglo. Lo anterior se comprueba al examinar las relaciones entre instituciones musicales y públicos, las prácticas musicales predominantes y sus condicionamientos, la composición del campo musical y las luchas simbólicas que protagonizan sus agentes, o la forma en que tiende a resolverse la tensión entre “música académica” y “música popular”, cosas que aquí se examinan.

La Guerra por el Control Estratégico en el Suroccidente Colombiano
Authors: Echandía Castilla Camilo
Published: July 2024

En este trabajo se busca identificar en los departamentos del Cauca, Huila, Nariño y Tolima, los cambios recientes en la conducta de los protagonistas de la guerra que a su vez determinan modificaciones en la geografía del conflicto. En efecto, la distribución espacial de la actividad armada corresponde cada vez menos con la presencia estable de los grupos irregulares y se relaciona cada vez más con objetivos de carácter estratégico que son en el momento actual mucho más importantes que la búsqueda de dominios territoriales. Teniendo como fin el control estratégico lo que cuenta prioritariamente son las ventajas asociadas a las lógicas de guerra y por lo tanto las acciones de las organizaciones armadas se orientan al control de importantes corredores, al control de zonas militares de avanzada y repliegue y al control de recursos económicos.

¿Pueden conciliarse las diferencias que surgen entre el desarrollo lógico de las premisas de algunos modelos formales de negociación –de los cuales se desprende que una estrategia de negociación gradual puede contribuir a crear las condiciones de confianza necesarias para comprometer a las partes con el resultado final de una negociación exitosa – con la constatación de los resultados obtenidos de numerosos procesos parciales de negociación política para la desmovilización de distintos grupos alzados en armas, sin que ello haya llevado al cese estable y duradero de conflicto violento en Colombia? A continuación presentamos un intento de hacerlo.

El carácter de los miembros de la élite política en Cali ha cambiado sustancialmente en los últimos cuarenta años de historia política. De una circulación de miembros de élite de poder económico que se autorepresentaba en las instancias de decisión política local, transitaron en lo fundamental, a una élite política profesional que vive de la política y para la política, lo que define una forma moderna de dominación política. A su vez, los partidos liberal y conservador, con muy tenues diferencias, se han constituido para la élite política, en las instancias de reconocimiento y legitimidad política en tanto microempresas electorales; son también, la forma organizativa que contiene los elementos claves del proyecto hegemónico de la élite política local.
Coerción sorda de las relaciones económicas: Aplicación de un concepto marxista para comprender las relaciones de producción en la hacienda andina
Authors: Gascón Jorge
Published: July 2024

El presente artículo quiere ser una aportación al desarrollo del concepto coerción sorda de las relaciones económicas, concebido por Carlos Marx en El Capital, y que le permite explicar cómo la capacidad de control del sistema capitalista sobre la población trabajadora se realiza a través de factores infraestructurales. En el artículo, el concepto se aplica al sistema de haciendas latinoamericano, y en concreto, andino. Con ello se quiere observar la riqueza y universalidad del concepto, que también puede servir como fundamento teórico para profundizar en el conocimiento de los mecanismos de control de relaciones de producción denaturaleza diferente a aquél en el que hasta ahora había sido empleado.

Objetivo: Descrever o olhar da equipe de enfermagem para a prevenção e controle de infecções relacionadas à assistência à saúde em Unidade de Terapia Intensiva (UTI) Adulto, bem como identificar as medidas adotadas e os desafios enfrentados para implantação dessas práticas. Revisão bibliográfica: As IRAS constituem os eventos adversos mais frequentes e as principais causas potencialmente preveníveis de morbimortalidade. Como medida de controle e de prevenção das taxas de IRAS nas UTI, em todos os estabelecimentos de assistência à saúde, a adoção do bundle é de extrema relevância, por se tratar de um pacote de medidas preventivas para implantação e manutenção dos dispositivos invasivos. Entretanto, para implantá-lo e mantê-lo em uma adesão adequada é necessário haver engajamento e conhecimento da equipe de enfermagem. Considerações finais: Investimentos para capacitação da equipe de enfermagem são imprescindíveis, além de políticas institucionais que promovam a cultura de segurança do paciente, a prevenção e o controle das infecções em UTI.

Published: July 2024

Objetivo: Analisar a efetividade da utilização do suvorexante na prevenção do delirium em pacientes críticos. Métodos: Trata-se de uma revisão integrativa realizado a partir da busca de artigos publicados nos últimos 10 anos nas principais bases de dados eletrônicas, PUBMED, SCIELO e Web of Science.  Resultados: A busca resultou em seis trabalhos que convergiram para a efetividade do uso do suvorexante na prevenção do delirium em pacientes gravemente enfermos. Nenhum efeito adverso foi encontrado. Observou uma variação 15 a 20 mg na dose administrada de suvorexante para a prevenção do delirium. Os principais fatores de risco para o delirium relacionados a pacientes na Unidade de Terapia Intensiva (UTI) foram: maior idade, maior score de fragilidade, menor Índice de Massa Corporal, maior demência, maior escore de APACHE II, aumento do uso de ventilador e distúrbios do sono. Foram encontrados também a associação da utilização de suvorexante com a utilização de ventilação mecânica, mortalidade, coadministração de fármacos, como a trazodona. Considerações finais: O suvorexante pode ser bastante efetivo para o tratamento do delirium em pacientes gravemente enfermos, principalmente, ao considerar os leves ou ausentes efeitos adversos comparados àqueles apresentados pelos antipsicóticos amplamente utilizados para o controle do delirium.
Understanding the essentials of photodynamic therapy for dental practitioners: Shining a spotlight
Authors: Srivastava Prateek , Sinha Shruti , Chandra Sunira , Singh Siddharth Kumar
Published: July 2024

Background:

Oral disorders, including tooth decay, periodontal disease, and endodontic infections, are prevalent worldwide. The escalating issue of antibiotic resistance exacerbates the need for alternative treatment modalities.

Aim:

This review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of advancements in photodynamic therapy (PDT) for dental applications, highlighting its potential as a non-invasive local and adjuvant therapy for various oral infectious disorders. PDT, which originated in the early 20th century, involves three primary components: A photosensitizer (PS), light, and oxygen. The PS selectively targets unwanted eukaryotic cells, such as tumors in the oral cavity, or pathogenic microorganisms, while sparing healthy cells. The efficacy of PDT is significantly influenced by the type of PS utilized.

Method:

An electronic search was conducted using the PubMed database focusing on peer-reviewed articles up to November 2023 using the keywords “photodynamic therapy,” “photochemotherapy,” “antimicrobial photodynamic therapy,” “antimicrobial photodynamic therapy oral,” resulting in 2341, 1034, 389, 221, and 96 items, respectively. After appropriate review, relevant data from other electronic sources are also included for additional information.

Results:

Historical and recent studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of porphyrin PSs and temoporfin in treating premalignant and malignant intraoral lesions, particularly as palliative treatments when conventional therapies have failed. In addition, phenothiazinium PSs, such as methylene blue and toluidine blue, have shown substantial antimicrobial activity against bacteria, viruses, and fungi. PDT has been applied successfully to treat specific oral conditions, including caries, endodontic and mucosal infections, periodontal disorders, and periimplantitis. Notably, its antibacterial properties suggest that PDT could reduce the dependency on systemic antibiotics.

Conclusion:

PDT emerges as a promising alternative to conventional treatments for oral infections, offering a potential solution to the global challenge of antibiotic resistance. Continued research and development are essential to enhance the effectiveness and broaden the application of PDT in dental care.
Recurrence rates after functional surgery versus amputation for nail squamous cell carcinoma not involving the bone: A systematic review
Authors: Wong Hoi-Shiwn , Li Fang , Jiang Jia-Yi , Huang Shu-dai , Ji Xiang , Zhu Ping , Wang Da-Guang
Published: July 2024

Background

Nail unit squamous cell carcinoma (nSCC) is a malignant subungual tumour. Although it has a low risk of metastasis and mortality, the tumour has a significant local recurrence rate. There is insufficient data to determine whether functional surgery is less effective than amputation for nSCC that does not involve the bone.

Objectives

We aimed to investigate existing data on the outcomes of functional surgery and amputation for nSCC without bone invasion.

Materials and Methods

We carried out an extensive search in PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, and Scopus for appropriate English-language academic papers, starting with the creation of individual resources until February 23, 2023. The main outcome was local recurrence. Initially, 2191 studies related to nSCC were selected. Information from every research study was retrieved and subdivided, comprising the year of publication, period, number of patients, age, gender distribution, tumour stage, type of intervention, number of recurrences, and follow-up period.

Results

Ten independent studies (319 lesions) were finally selected. Mohs micrographic surgery was the most reported surgical modality, followed by wide surgical excision and amputation. Local recurrence rates between Mohs micrographic surgery, wide surgical excision and amputation treatment were nearly identical. Other surgical methods included limited surgical excision, partial ablation, and limited excision until the clearing of margins, with recurrence rates up to 50%.

Conclusions

Given the functional impairment and psychological distress associated with phalanx amputation, functional surgery, including Mohs micrographic surgery and wide surgical excision , should be the preferred therapy for nSCC without bone involvement. Amputation should remain the preferred therapy for nSCC that involves the bone. Partial excision should be avoided. Further studies on whether Mohs micrographic surgery or wide surgical excision is a better option for nSCC not involving the bone are required.

Authors: Endrawan I Bagus , Martinus  , Septaliza Dewi , Muslimin  , Alam M. Hafizin
Published: July 2024

Background: The research problem is to improve our understanding of how different training approaches can improve bullet-shot results. Research Objectives: This study aims to investigate the impact of different training models on the learning outcomes of orthodox-style shot put. Methods: The research method employed was an experiment with a one-group pre-test and post-test design to enhance student learning outcomes using a varied training model. The subjects consisted of 32 students from a high school in Palembang. The study was conducted over 30 days, with four weekly meetings. During each meeting, 2-3 training models were presented, resulting in a total of 10 variation training models, namely Passing Techniques in Football Baseball, Techniques that Hold the Repulsion, Hanging the Ball, Resisting Pull, Clap Hand, Reject Target, Throwing Darts, Shoot in Target, and Load Rejection One Shoot. Data analysis used SPSS version 23 to calculate the significant value of the pretest and posttest results. Finding/Results: The study found that using varied training models resulted in significantly better learning outcomes in orthodox-style bullet throwing. Conclusion: The study concluded that varied training models have a considerable positive influence on learning outcomes in the orthodox style of instruction. This suggests that the findings contribute to a deeper understanding of effective training methods in sports education and have practical implications for athletic training programs. We could conduct longitudinal studies to investigate the long-term impact of diverse training on skill retention and entry into competitive athletics.

Authors: Dupri  , Suherman Adang , Budiana Dian , Juliantine Tite
Published: July 2024

Background: Modern developments require Generation Z to be able to face future challenges that cannot be predicted. Research Objectives: The purpose of this study is to investigate how thinking styles and gender can develop creative thinking skills in students when learning physical education and also to investigate the interaction between thinking style and gender on creative thinking skills. Methods: This study used a non-experimental design. Thinking style is measured by learning and thinking style tests (SOLAT), and creative thinking skills are measured by the Torrance Test of Creative Thinking (TTCT), which consists of four indicators: fluency, flexibility, originality, and elaboration. The sampling technique in this study was cluster random sampling. The random process is carried out in two stages: the first is random selection by randomly selecting, and the second is the second is random assignment. The sample for this research was 68, consisting of 33 men and 35 women. Meanwhile, the analysis was done by looking at n-gain and continuing with the ANOVA test. Findings/Results: The results of this study indicate that thinking styles and gender significantly impact students' creative thinking ability, and there is also an interaction between thinking styles and types that significantly affects students' creative thinking ability. The analysis of the data obtained found a significant relationship between gender and students' creative thinking skills in physical education. Conclusion: Male students have better creative thinking skills than female students because they tend to use the right brain to develop their thinking skills. In developing creative thinking skills, grouping based on gender is necessary. Future research needs to be conducted by considering the right learning model for developing creative thinking skills during physical education learning.

Published: July 2024

В основе благополучия экономической системы находится совокупное благополучие всех субъектов, которые включены в эту систему. Одним из наиболее явных факторов, который наглядно демонстрирует это благополучие, является экономический рост. В современной теории и практике существуют разнообразные модели оценки роста. Однако не все из них учитывают качественную составляющую, учитывающую операционную эффективность в увязке с рыночными индикаторами эффективности. Качественный рост зависит от способности компании или же уполномоченных органов власти определять ключевые показатели (индикаторы), учет которых весьма важен при принятии различных экономических решений, причем эти показатели могут использоваться при принятии операционных, управленческих, инвестиционных решений. Оптимальное сочетание данных индикаторов способствует принятию наиболее объективных, а следовательно, и эффективных управленческих решений, а принятие подобных решений будет содействовать различным субъектам экономики в достижении соответствующего роста и повышении эффективности хозяйственной деятельности. Соотнесение понятий экономического роста и экономической эффективности необходимо, ведь достижение экономического роста возможно только при рациональном использовании экономическим субъектом внутренних ресурсов и определенном планировании расходования этих ресурсов в соответствии с фактором изменчивости экономической реальности.

The well-being of an economic system is based on the total well-being of all subjects that are included in this system. One of the most obvious factors that clearly demonstrates this prosperity is economic growth. In modern theory and practice, there are various models for assessing growth. However, not all of them take into account the qualitative component, which takes into account operational efficiency in relation to market performance indicators. Qualitative growth depends on the ability of the company or authorized government bodies to determine key indicators (indicators), the consideration of which is very important when making various economic decisions, and these indicators can be used when making operational, management, and investment decisions. The optimal combination of these indicators contributes to the adoption of the most objective, and therefore effective, management decisions, and the adoption of such decisions will assist various economic entities in achieving appropriate growth and increasing the efficiency of economic activity. The correlation of the concepts of economic growth and economic efficiency is necessary, because achieving economic growth is possible only with the rational use of internal resources by an economic entity and certain planning for the expenditure of these resources in accordance with the factor of variability of economic realit.
