Arte, política y diplomacia
Authors: Murace Giulia
Published: May 2020

Este artículo se propone reflexionar acerca de la interacción entre arte y política a través de dos episodios que revelan algunas de las dinámicas del proceso de construcción y consolidación del sistema artístico sudamericano (y en particular argentino). Entre 1897 y 1911 se avanzaron dos proyectos para la fundación en Roma de una academia de bellas artes que acogiese los pensionados sudamericanos. El primero fue presentado por Enrique B. Moreno, ministro plenipotenciario argentino en Italia, con el apoyo de Ettore Ximenes. El segundo fue ideado por los ministros argentino, brasileño y chileno (Roque Sáenz Peña, Alberto Fialho, Santiago Aldunate) y presentado a cada respectivo gobierno para ser realizado en ocasión de la Exposición Internacional de Roma de 1911. A través del análisis de estas acciones se examina cómo distintos actores políticos y artísticos mancomunaron sus propósitos en pos del reconocimiento (en la patria y al exterior) de la centralidad del campo artístico para el desarrollo del país. Se evidencia, además, el lugar que ocupó Roma en el mapa de las relaciones artístico-diplomáticas de Italia y Sudamérica, ya que fue la ciudad en donde se encontraron y desde donde surgieron ideas colectivas que anhelaban una unidad latinoamericana.

Authors: . Tawfeeq Furat N
Published: May 2020

Use of Surveillance cameras in houses and markets became common, that resulted to minimize theft and make it a difficult task because it let recording and viewing what is going around. The wide application of these cameras, pushed thieves to seek new ways for abolition of the surveillance system and digital recording of events, such as cutting the signal wire between the camera and Digital video recorder or changing the direction of the camera away from the focus spot or damaging the camera or steal the device which means the loss of the recorded media. This paper focuses on such abolitions and fixed it by suggesting a way to notify the administrator immediately and automatically by Email about any violation of the system using MATLAB, which allow fast action by the administrator to fix such tampering. The results show that selecting of threshold equal to two was fair in detecting motion and value of five, in case of changing the camera direction through testing of fast and slow motions.

Adult sexual dynamics in persons with the history of sexual abuse
Authors: Repič Slavič Tanja
Published: May 2020

Sexuality is most natural and healthy when it is part of an emotionally genuine relationship, not even as its central part but rather as an upgrade of the intimacy of two people who are mutually loyal, committed, loving and respectful. However, if an individual was sexually abused in childhood, they may have suffered the severest consequences of sexual abuse trauma in the area of sexuality, and their experience of sexuality will be completely different from those who were not sexually abused. The article first describes what children learn about sex if they have been sexually abused, as this experience is very much related to the most common behaviours and experiences in adult sexuality. Then we present a theoretical overview of research on sexuality in adults who suffered childhood sexual abuse. The theory will be supplemented and supported by the statements of individuals who have been attending a therapeutic group for the sexually abused in childhood for two years. The statements quoted in the article refer to the period prior to the therapeutic process. Clinical experience shows that, until the victim has resolved the trauma of sexual abuse, the dynamics between the offender and the victim during childhood abuse is most often very similar to the dynamics of the abused with their partner, even in their sexual life.
Does the Culture of Honor do well in Poland?
Authors: Zdybek Przemysław Marcin , Walczak Radosław B.
Published: May 2020

This paper deals with the issue of honor culture in Poland. In a traditional honor culture, honorable men should be sensitive to situations where their honor is defiled. They should also be ready to defend their good name (Cohen and Nisbett, 1997), even if it means using violence. In such a culture women cannot actively defend their honor. The authors checked the gender role differences (both in actor and observer perspective) in attitudes towards honorable behaviors.

The paper presents two experiments, analyzed with repeated ANOVA measures. In the first study, which is a replication of the research conducted by Szmajke (1999), men and women (N=156) evaluated a letter written by an "honorable" killer and a "dishonorable" thief (in two gender versions). The second study (N=146) replicated the results of the first one.The results confirm the traditional concept of the culture of honor as a permission for aggression used by men to defend their good name, in the eyes of both women and men. The use of violence by women in an analogues situation is evaluated negatively by both genders. Results shows that the general gender roles in Polish culture of honor keeps men as active user of violence to respond for the provacation. Women are not allowed to active violent defend of their honor.
Violence regulation and dysregulation system
Authors: Valenta Tanja , Gostečnik Christian , Pate Tanja , Repič Slavič Tanja
Published: May 2020

Very early in childhood, relational trauma can lead to affect dysregulation in two directions: while intense fear determines the dysregulation of the brain system responsible for flight, uncontrolled aggression means the dysregulation of the brain centre responsible for fight. Both systems send the message of dysregulation in the autonomic nervous system. In both cases, there is a dysregulation of sympathetic arousal that exceeds the individual’s ability to cope with stress in a functional and effective manner. In other words, the flight response is triggered by immense fear, and the fight response is caused by intense anger and rage, which is functional in a normal response to trauma, while in the case of a dysregulated psycho-organic system it indicates a disorder that can have long-term consequences. These disorders can occur at a very early stage, in children who are at the time exposed to severe stress situations; this can lead to changes in the child’s neurobiological system, which may later become a source of psychopathology.

Authors: Przeperski Jarosław
Published: May 2020

Przemoc domowa jest doświadczana każdego roku w Polsce przez niemal 90 tysięcy osób. Podstawowym problemem jaki pojawia się w refleksji na tym zjawiskiem jest pytanie o trafne i rzetelne diagnozowanie przemocy przez profesjonalistów pracujących  z rodzinami doświadczających przemocy. Badania jednoznacznie wskazują, że dobra diagnoza jest podstawą do tworzenia efektywnych planów pomocy rodzinie i klientowi. Artykuł analizuje proces diagnostyczny rodzin z problemem przemocy domowej. Proces diagnostyczny podzielony został na trzy części. Pierwsza dotyczy sytuacji kiedy przemoc jeszcze nie występuje ale profesjonaliści wskazują na czynniki, które mogą świadczyć o dużym prawdopodobieństwu pojawienia się jej. Drugi to etap, na którym przemoc występuje. W tym miejscu opisane zostały zasady screeningu (potwierdzenie występowania przemocy) i dalszej pogłębionej diagnozy. Trzecia część podejmuje rozważania dotyczące diagnozy możliwości nawrotu przemocy w rodzinach, które wcześniej jej doświadczały. Ostatnia część pokazuje na ile istotne jest zjawisko przemocy w diagnozie dokonywanej przez przedstawicieli różnych profesji pomocowych. W artykule pokazane zostały także praktyczne wskazówki, rozwiązania funkcjonujące w innych krajach oraz trudności jakie mogą w swojej pracy napotykać diagności problemu przemocy domowej.
Is medulloblastoma associated with systemic immunomodulation? – A comparative analysis of preoperative inflammatory markers
Authors: Sharma Ravi , Katiyar Varidh , Gurjar Hitesh , Sharma Mehar , Goda Revanth , Vora Zainab
Published: May 2020

Background:

We attempt to compare preoperative inflammatory markers among children with medulloblastoma and pilocytic astrocytoma and establish their diagnostic efficacy to distinguish these tumors.

Methods:

Children (<18 years) with biopsy-proven medulloblastoma and pilocytic astrocytoma operated at our institute from January 2012 to January 2018 were enrolled in this study. The hematological parameters were compared between the two groups and with healthy controls. Children with a history of disease or medications that may confound these parameters were excluded from the study. Receiver operator characteristic curves were made to assess the diagnostic accuracy of markers found to be significant.

Results:

Patients with medulloblastoma were found to have higher neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), derived neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (dNLR), platelet-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), and platelet counts compared with pilocytic astrocytoma. Absolute lymphocyte count (ALC) was significantly lower in medulloblastoma group as compared to healthy controls but not with pilocytic astrocytoma. NLR and dNLR demonstrated maximum diagnostic accuracy in distinguishing patients with medulloblastoma from healthy controls and pilocytic astrocytoma. Using a cutoff of 2.45 for NLR distinguishes medulloblastoma from healthy controls as well as pilocytic astrocytoma with a sensitivity of 75.5% and specificity of 66.7%. Similarly, dNLR cutoff of 1.47 distinguishes medulloblastoma from healthy controls with a sensitivity of 83% and specificity of 76% and a cutoff of 1.53 distinguishes medulloblastoma from pilocytic astrocytoma with a sensitivity of 81.1% and specificity of 81.8%. Combination of NLR and dNLR performed only marginally better than individual variables with area under the curve being 0.856 for medulloblastoma versus healthy controls and 0.86 for medulloblastoma versus pilocytic astrocytoma.

Conclusion:

NLR and dNLR can be used as a preoperative predictive marker in medulloblastoma. There is decreased ALC in patients with medulloblastoma contributing to raised NLR and dNLR suggestive of systemic immunosuppression.

Published: May 2020

Many problems were encountered during the drilling operations in Zubair oilfield. Stuckpipe, wellbore instability, breakouts and washouts, which increased the critical limits problems, were observed in many wells in this field, therefore an extra non-productive time added to the total drilling time, which will lead to an extra cost spent. A 1D Mechanical Earth Model (1D MEM) was built to suggest many solutions to such types of problems. An overpressured zone is noticed and an alternative mud weigh window is predicted depending on the results of the 1D MEM. Results of this study are diagnosed and wellbore instability problems are predicted in an efficient way using the 1D MEM. Suitable alternative solutions are presented ahead to the drilling process commences in the future operations.
Chemical and Thermal Investigation on Stability of Tanuma Formation Using Different Additives with Drilling Fluids
Authors: Abdulzahra Khalid Mohammed , Kuery Asawer Abdulrasul , Abdul aoun Mayssaa Ali
Published: May 2020

Wellbore stability is considered as one of the most challenges during drilling wells due to the reactivity of shale with drilling fluids. During drilling wells in North Rumaila, Tanuma shale is represented as one of the most abnormal formations. Sloughing, caving, and cementing problems as a result of the drilling fluid interaction with the formation are considered as the most important problem during drilling wells. In this study, an attempt to solve this problem was done, by improving the shale stability by adding additives to the drilling fluid. Water-based mud (WBM) and polymer mud were used with different additives. Three concentrations 0.5, 1, 5 and 10 wt. % for five types of additives (CaCl2, NaCl, Na2SiO3, KCl, and Flodrill PAM 1040) was used. Different periods of immersion (1, 24 and 72 hours) were applied. The results of the immersion test showed that using 10 wt. % of Na2SiO3 for WBM gives a high recovery percentage (77.99 %) after 72 hr, while the result of the dispersion test (roller oven) of 10 wt % of sodium silicate with WBM was (80.97 %) after 16 hr. Also, the immersion test result of 10 wt% of sodium silicate with polymer mud was (79.76 %) after 72 hr and the results of dispersion test (roller oven) of 10 wt. % of sodium silicate with polymer mud was (84.51 %) after 16 hr.

Waste management that is not managed properly will have negative impacts both for human health. In addition, the impact caused by improper waste management also results in a decrease in environmental quality. Therefore, waste management cannot be separated from the management of good waste management and community lifestyle management. Until now, waste management in the city of Bukittinggi is managed by the Department of Sanitation and Parks (DKP), it is indeed difficult to deal with waste problems. Constraints faced include public awareness to minimize waste production starting from the personal, family and environment. Very high population density, as well as limited land available, causing the emergence of the problem of waste can not be resolved properly, community ignorance of the problem of waste makes garbage continue to accumulate in various corners of the city without a touch of proper handling. The role of the community, especially students related to the problem of garbage in urban areas is very influential. This is because the community contributes to the amount of municipal waste generation each year. It is expected that waste segregation in the household environment has done well management it will help the current municipal waste problem which is increasingly complex and complex given the increasing population and culture. The activity was carried out with socialization to students of FEBI IAIN Bukittinggi in the hope that after getting socialization it could change the behavior of students into insane people who care about garbage.

RISK-BASED TESTING: IDENTIFYING, ASSESSING, MITIGATING & MANAGING RISKS EFFICIENTLY IN SOFTWARE TESTING
Authors: Dahiya Omdev , Solanki Kamna , Dhankhar Amita
Published: May 2020

Most of the software organizations often strive hard while deciding the releasedates of their software product. This is because no organization wants to take riskswhere the fault is revealed in the developed product on the client-side. This will leadto expensive bug-fixes, and the image of the developer company is tarnished. On theother hand, testing beyond a particular time would lead to a loss of revenue for theorganization. The effective approach for handling the risky components will enablesoftware testers to identify more important test cases that can reveal faults associatedwith those components. After identification of those test cases, software testers work tofix fault sooner by managing the testing schedule by running such test cases earlier.Faults associated with hazardous components can also be detected sooner. In riskbased testing, the probability of a fault becoming a reality is assessed, and the damagethat this fault can cause when leading to failure is considered. This study haspresented an overall layout of risk-based testing. We have summarized the researchfindings of numerous researchers in this field. This will help the newcomers in thisfiled to provide a comprehensive source of information altogether. The futuredirection of this study will focus on proposing a novel technique for risk-based testing,considering different parameters together.

Today we are living in the era of fourth industrial revolution demanding variety ofskills set for delivering various jobs. The world is transforming in a contingent way.This transformation is not only in terms of technology but a complete domino effect isbeing witnessed in the recent past. The technology, demography and the socialchanges are affecting the professional as well as personal life styles. The techniquesand procedures followed in the organizations are becoming obsolete very quicklyresulting in the need for new techniques. New jobs are created; even the mostdemanded jobs in the current days are not even present few years back. Thus the jobdescription and the job specification is changing a lot these days. It is not the survivalthat is threatening the employee work force but it is about the sustenance of their jobs.Learnability is the skill that is coming to the aid of employees for sustenance.Learnability is the ability to quickly grow and adopt skill set to be emploayablethroughout their working life. In this regard this study is aimed to identify the need oflearnability skill among the people and how it affects their career.A survey was conducted with a sample of 120 employees working in differentsectors to identify the need to unlearn the present skill set and relearn the new skillsfor their job upgradation. The study revealed that unlearning and relearning is neededin every sector like educational institutions, software, manufacturing, fast movingconsumer goods etc,. The time span for the change process varies from one sector tothe other. The employees seeking new skills are being headhunted by the corporateworld and are reaching the tip of their career ladder and the others are left behind

Published: May 2020

Background: Mental health problems are increasingly recognized as a significant and concerning secondary effect of the COVID-19 pandemic. Research on previous epidemics/pandemics suggest that families, particularly mothers, may be at increased risk, but this population has yet to be examined. The current study (1) described prevalence rates of maternal depressive and anxiety symptoms from an online convenience sample during the COVID-19 pandemic, (2) identified risk and protective factors for elevated symptoms, and (3) described current mental health service use and barriers. Methods: Participants (N = 641) were mothers of children age 0-8 years, including expectant mothers. Mothers completed an online survey assessing mental health, sociodemographic information, and COVID-19-related variables. Results: Clinically-relevant depression was indicated in 33.16%, 42.55%, and 43.37% of mothers of children age 0-18 months, 18 months to 4 years, and 5 to 8 years, respectively. Prevalence of anxiety was 36.27%, 32.62%, and 29.59% for mothers across age groups, respectively. Binary logistic regressions indicated significant associations between risk factors and depression/anxiety across child age groups. Limitations: Cross-sectional data was used to describe maternal mental health problems during COVID-19 limiting the ability to make inferences about the long-term impact of maternal depression and anxiety on family well-being. Conclusions: Maternal depression and anxiety appear to be elevated in the context of COVID-19 compared to previously reported population norms. Identified risk factors for depression and anxiety across different child age ranges can inform targeted early intervention strategies to prevent long-term impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on family well-being and child development.
The Contours and Correlates of Child Poverty Across Immigrant Generations
Authors: Thiede Brian C. , Brooks Matthew M , Jensen Leif
Published: May 2020

Recent cohorts of U.S. children increasingly consist of immigrants or the immediate descendants of immigrants, a demographic shift that has been implicated in high rates of child poverty. Analyzing data from the 2014-2018 Current Population Survey (CPS) and using the U.S. Census Bureau’s Supplementary Poverty Measure, we describe differences in child poverty rates across immigrant generations (first-, second-, and third+-generation immigrant children) and how these are rooted in generational differences in the prevalence and impact of key poverty risk factors. We find that (1) poverty rates among Hispanic children are very high, particularly among first- and second- generation with two foreign-born parents children; (2) limited parental employment is by far the greatest risk factor for child poverty compared to having a young or poorly educated parent, living in a single-headed family or disadvantaged place of residence; (3) inter-generational differences in risk factor prevalence explain non-trivial shares of corresponding child poverty gaps; and (4) the patterns observed among the Hispanic population are moderated by race and ethnicity. Understanding the intersection of poverty risks, immigrant generation, and race has significant policy implications has America’s population continues to grow more diverse along multiple social axes.
Toward internationalization: a bibliometric analysis of the social sciences in Mainland China from 1979 to 2018

Published: May 2020

The past 40 years have witnessed profound changes in the international connectivity and competitiveness of Mainland China’s scientific research. Based on publication data about Chinese researchers in the Social Science Citation Index (SSCI) from the Web of Science (WoS), this study aims to provide a birds-eye view of how social science research in Mainland China has internationalized over the past four decades. The findings show that the number of social science articles published by Chinese authors in international journals has experienced a noticeable increase over the period and the collaboration networks of researchers from Mainland China have broadened, with the number of articles with a Chinese first author showing a strong upward trend. In addition, findings show that Chinese scholars are published in a wider range of journals and there has been a steady increase in their appearance in higher impact journals (influenced in part by certain journals). Finally, different social science disciplines show various degrees of internationalization, with Psychology and Business, Economics, Planning accounting for a high proportion of international collaboration articles, while the proportion of Mainland China-led articles and Q1 articles are relatively higher in the areas of Education, Media & Information, and Community & Social Issues. This study provides a broad view from which to examine the internationalization process in Mainland China’s social science landscape in the last four decades while also noting some of the possible underlying explanations for these changes, thereby deepening our understanding of social science research stemming from the region.

Published: May 2020

One of the ubiquitous human behaviours observed in natural disasters and humanitarian crisis is irrational stockpiling (also known as hoarding or panic buying). Limited, distorted and exaggerated information during crisis disturbs people’s judgement and results in aberrant actions which can be explained with economics and psychology theories. The objective of this paper is to examine the perplexing stockpiling phenomena during disasters like COVID-19 pandemic and discuss its immediate and long-term impact on economy, society and local communities.
