HEALTH PSYCHOLOGIST: OCCUPATION
Authors: Никифоров Г.С. , Гофман О.О.
Published: October 2020

Психология здоровья является новым самостоятельным научным направлением и занимает одну из приоритетных позиций в решении общегосударственной задачи по развитию и воспитанию здоровой нации. На данный момент наблюдается несоответствие между накопленной базой научных знаний о здоровье и отсутствием квалифицированных специалистов - психологов здоровья, на которых будет возлагаться ответственность за их практическую реализацию. В соответствии с концепцией жизненного пути профессиональные задачи психолога здоровья по его психологическому обеспечению распределены на всех этапах бытия и должны включать биопсихосоциальные изменения человека. Представления авторов базируются на концепции здоровой личности, основные положения которой были впервые сформулированы в отечественной науке известными психиатрами и психологами С.С. Корсаковым, И.А. Сикорским, В.М. Бехтеревым, а также западными представителями гуманистической психологии А. Адлером, К. Роджерсом, А. Маслоу, К. Хорни, Г. Олпортом, Э. Фроммом. Логичным продолжением данной парадигмы является постановка вопроса о том, решение каких задач должна предусматривать профессиональная компетенция психологов здоровья.

The psychology of health is a new independent scientific direction and occupies one of the priority positions in solving the national task of developing and educating a healthy nation. At the moment, there is a mismatch between the accumulated base of scientific knowledge about health and the lack of qualified specialists - health psychologists who will be held responsible for their practical implementation. In accordance with the concept of a life path, the professional tasks of a health psychologist in psychological support of health are distributed at all stages of life and should include human biopsychosocial changes. The representations of the authors are based on the concept of a healthy personality, the main provisions of which were first formulated in Russian science by famous psychiatrists and psychologists S.S. Korsakov, I.A. Sikorsky, V.M. Bekhterev, as well as Western representatives of humanistic psychology A. Adler, C. Rogers, A. Maslow, C. Horney, G. Allport, E. Fromm. A logical continuation of this paradigm is the question of what kind of tasks should be addressed by the professional competence of health psychologists.

AN INTELLIGENT LOCATION AND STATE REORGANIZATION OF TRAFFIC SIGNAL
Authors: Behzadi Saeed
Published: October 2020

In all geo-database related to traffic, beside storing roads data, the information associated to traffic signals such as location,
types of traffic signals, side street name, and so on are also stored in that database. In reality, the reason of defining traffic signals for road is
the situations and conditions which the roads have. So the existence of traffic signals in the network is related to the parameters of the road. In this
paper, instead of storing traffic signal data in the database, a novel method is introduced which implemented on the road network. As a result, the
spatial and non-spatial information of traffic signals in the network are extracted based on the location and attribute of the road network. The proposed
method is implemented on the network; the result of the intelligent method is compared with the traffic signals information which stored in the database.
By comparing the locations and states of proposed traffic signals and the real ones, the overall accuracy for recognizing locations of traffic signal is
obtained 94% and the overall accuracy for recognizing states of traffic signal is obtained 89%.

Authors: Yu Hai-Jun , Lin Xiao-Long , Zhang Rui-Lei , Wang Qian , Wang Xin-Hua
Published: October 2020

The utility of COI DNA barcodes in species delimitation is explored as well as life stage associations of five closely related Propsilocerus species: Propsilocerus akamusi (Tokunaga, 1938), Propsilocerus paradoxus (Lundström, 1915), Propsilocerus saetheri Wang, Liu et Paasivirta, 2007, Propsilocerus sinicus Sæther et Wang, 1996, and Propsilocerus taihuensis (Wen, Zhou et Rong, 1994). Results revealed distinctly larger interspecific than intraspecific divergences and indicated a clear “barcode gap”. In total, 42 COI barcode sequences including 16 newly generated DNA barcodes were applied to seven Barcode Index Numbers (BINs). A neighbor-joining (NJ) tree comprises five well-separated clusters representing five morphospecies. Comments on how to distinguish the larvae of P. akamusi and P. taihuensis are provided.
The Impact of Violence in the Health Care Setting upon Nursing Education
Authors: Whitley Georgia Griffith , Jacobson Gloria A , Gawrys Mary T
Published: October 2020

ABSTRACT

As the incidence of violence and potential risks for violence have increased in the health care workplace, the safety of nurses and nursing students has emerged as a critical concern for the profession. This article provides a review of the literature focusing on the incidence of violence toward nurses, factors that contribute to the occurrence of violence, the management of violent or potentially violent situations, and the effects on nurse victims of violence. Additionally, the costs of violence to the health care system and the various ways that violence has been defined are reviewed. The literature on violence occurs primarily in the clinical specialty areas of psychiatricmental health, emergency department, long-term care, and home care nursing. To address the need to prepare students to deal with the issue of violence in the health care setting, strategies for nursing education are presented which include role playing, videotape playbacks, and debriefing sessions. Suggested content consists of student self-awareness, assessment, and diagnosis of violent or potentially violent clients, and nursing care planning, interventions, and evaluation for the immediate situation, as well as long-term treatment goals. The authors emphasize the obligation of nurse educators to prepare students to deal with violence in the health care setting.
Zainteresowanie ochroną przyrody i historią botaniki w Polsce oraz pasja popularyzacji wiedzy przyrodniczej w twórczości Seweryna Józefa Krzemieniewskiego (1871–1945)
Authors: Krzeptowska-Moszkowicz Izabela
Published: October 2020

Celem pracy jest przedstawienie sylwetki Seweryna Józefa Krzemieniewskiego, jednego z pionierów polskiej mikrobiologii, jako uczonego o zainteresowaniach humanistycznych i interdyscyplinarnych. Jego twórczość w tym obszarze objęła przede wszystkim historię botaniki wniosła ważny wkład w rozwój tej dyscypliny w Polsce, w okresie międzywojennym. Krzemieniewski jest autorem prac analizujących badania przyrodnicze misjonarza Michała Boyma, a także artykułu przedstawiającego historię botaniki w ośrodku lwowskim. Opracował również biogramy botaników polskich, nie wszystkie jednak zostały wydane drukiem. Ponadto uczony przez kilka lat angażował się w intensywne prace na rzecz ochrony przyrody, co pozwala zaliczyć go w tym okresie do grupy czołowych działaczy na tym polu w Polsce i wpisuje na karty historii ochrony przyrody. U podstaw humanistycznej działalności Krzemieniewskiego wydaje się leżeć jego przekonanie o podstawowym znaczeniu edukacji dla rozwoju świadomego i wrażliwego przyrodniczo społeczeństwa, co znajduje wyraźne odbicie w opublikowanych przez niego pracach. Ta idea ma również odzwierciedlenie w działaniach uczonego jako popularyzatora wiedzy przyrodniczej oraz wykładowcy.   Study of the interest of Seweryn Józef Krzemieniewski (1871–1945) in the nature conservation, the history of botany in Poland, and his passion for popularizing the natural sciences The aim of this paper is to present one of the pioneers of Polish microbiology, Seweryn Józef Krzemieniewski, as a scholar with humanistic and interdisciplinary interests. His work covered primarily the history of botany and was an important contribution to the development of this discipline in the interwar period in Poland. Krzemieniewski is the author of works analyzing the research of Michał Boym, a missionary in China, as well as of an article presenting the history of botany in Lviv. He also prepared biographies of Polish botanists, but not all of them were published. Additionally, the scientist was involved for several years in intensive work in nature conservation, which makes it possible to include him in the group of leading activists in this field in Poland of that period. Krzemieniewski’s belief in the fundamental importance of education for the development of conscious and environmentally sensitive society seems to be at the root of his humanistic activities, which is clearly visible in his published works. This idea is also reflected in his activities as a popularizer of natural science and a lecturer.
Mobility of scholars and sciences between Bohemia, Hungary, Poland, and France in the 14th–15th centuries: the contribution of prosopography to the history of sciences
Authors: Spychala Pauline
Published: October 2020

This article aims to trace the mobility of scholars and sciences between France and Bohemia, Hungary, and Poland in the 14th and 15th centuries, seen from the perspective of prosopography. These exchanges were concentrated in only three oldest French universities of Montpellier, Orléans and Paris, albeit with significant variations, and in the newly-founded universities north of the Alps in the 14th century, namely those in Prague and Kraków. Mobility was less important and intensive at the end of the Middle Ages because of the policy in favour of establishing national universities. The names of 143 scholars from Bohemia, Hungary, and Poland, who were enrolled in the 14th and 15th centuries in French universities, have been found so far. Several of them played important roles in the history of science in these countries.

Published: October 2020

Eight mutant lines developed through mutation breeding technique using chemical mutagen along with parent line (Sadori) were evaluated at NIA, experimental farm. Quantitative and qualitative traits were analyzed statistically. The chemical mutagen Ethyle Methane Sulphonate (EMS) was used at the rate of 0.03%. The mutant lines (viz. NIA-M5, NIA-M10, NIA-M16, NIA-M20, NIA-M23, NIA-M29, NIA-M33 and NIA-M35) with parent Sadori were included in this study. The results revealed that three mutants (NIA-M20, NIA-M35 and NIA-M5) took (7.2%, 8.1% and 8.1%) higher plant height than parent (111 cm), two mutants (NIA-M5 and NIA-M20) obtained (36.8% and 42.1%) more sympodial branches plant-1 than parent (19.0). Three mutants (NIA-M20, NIA-M5 and NIA-M10) produced (16.8%, 22.4.0% and 25.4%) more number of bolls plant-1 than parental line (67.0). Five mutants (NIA-M5, NIA-M35, NIA-M20, NIA-M23 and NIA-M29) had higher fiber length (mm) (10.2%, 8%, 5.7%, 5% and 4.0%) as compared parent Sadori (28.0 mm). Two mutants (NIA-M20 and NIA-M29) showed higher fiber strength (g/tex) (5.5% and 8.3%) than parent (34.4%). Two mutants (NIA-M5 and NIA-M20) produced higher seed-cotton yield kg ha-1 (24.0% and 25.4%) over parent Sadori (3563 kg ha-1). The selected mutant lines on the basis of higher seed-cotton yield (kg ha-1) and enhanced fiber length (mm) compared to parent (Sadori) will be promoted in preliminary yield trials. Heritability and genetic advance were noted for early days to maturity, higher plant height (cm), sympodial branches plant-1, lengthy fiber (mm), bolls plant-1 and seed-cotton yield (kg ha-1).

Realizing the importance of practicing environmental concern, it is needed to understand the tools used to tackle the issues. In this study, university – industry – policy (U-I-P) entities collaboration is a significant approach that was viewed to be the success factor towards the efforts of tackling environmental issues. Collaboration work, which involves different entities benefit in a way that pushes the entities to move towards shared objectives and goals which is to improve the environmental condition. However, although the significance of U-I-P entities collaboration was known and the linkages among U-I-P entities has started, there are still limited information on the practice of collaboration specifically on the U-I-P entities linkage structures on environmental matters in Sarawak. Thus, there is a need to identify the barriers and success factor in order to develop successful collaboration. This study addressed the gap through a mixed method of qualitative and quantitative approaches which the data were collected from 199 respondents based on a face to face interview using structured questionnaires in the major divisions of Sarawak. Drawing from a large scale of study, the study explores the status of collaboration and the barriers of collaboration in Sarawak. Findings indicated that cost, private knowledge and knowledge barrier to be a major hurdle that inhibit the development of collaboration. The assessment suggested that more efforts to increase awareness on collaboration be disseminated.

Authors: MERCAN Yeliz , IŞIK MERCAN Sibel
Published: October 2020

The study aims to determine the relationship between students’ environmental attitudes and behaviors, and their environmental sensitivity and perceived environmental risks. The study was conducted with 361 Health School students in the 2018-19 academic years. Data were collected by the Environmental Attitude Scale (EAS), Environmental Behavior Scale (EBS), Environmental Sensitivity Scale (ESS), and Environmental Risk Perception Scale (ERPS). According to Multivariate Linear Regression Analysis: There was a positive association between EAS and the Chemical Waste Risk subscale of the ERPS (p<0.01); and also, between the ESS and subscales of the EBS (p<0.001). Another positive association was found between the Recycling Efforts subscale of the EBS and Chemical Waste Risk subscale of the ERPS and between Resource Depletion subscale of the ERPS and subscales of the EBS (p<0.05). Environmental sensitivity affected environmental behaviors positively but it was not a determinant of environmental attitudes. Some of the perceived environmental risks played an important role in existing environmental behaviors and environmental attitudes.

Modeling study of the impact of SO2 volcanic passive emissions on the tropospheric sulfur budget
Authors: Lamotte Claire , Guth Jonathan , Marécal Virginie , Cussac Martin
Published: October 2020

Abstract. The contribution of volcanic emissions is argued as non-linear on the sulfur species burden. Thus, well constraining volcanic emissions inventories is necessary to better study the impacts induced by these pollution sources on the troposheric sulfur composition, as well as on sulfur species concentrations and depositions at the global surface. In this paper, the changes induced by the update of the volcanic sulfur emissions inventory on the global chemistry-transport model MOCAGE (MOdèle de Chimie Atmosphérique à Grande Échelle) are studied. Unlike the current inventory [Andres and Kasgnoc (1998)], the new inventory [Carn et al. (2016, 2017)] includes contributions from both passive degassing and eruptive emissions with more accu- rate information. Eruptions are provided as daily total amounts of sulfur dioxide (SO2) emitted by volcanoes, while degassing are provided as annual averages with annual uncertainties by volcanoes. Information on plumes altitudes is also available and has been used in the model. The choice is made to look at the year 2013, when a neglieable amount of eruptive volcanic SO2 emissions is referenced, allowing us to focus the study on the impact of passive degassing emissions on the tropospheric sulfur budget. A validation against GOME-2 SO2 total column and MODIS AOD observations shows the improvements of the model results with the new inventory. Because the global volcanic SO2 flux changes from 13 Tg.yr−1 in the current inventory to 23.6 Tg.yr−1 in the new inventory, the updated inventory shows significant differences in the global sulfur budget, mainly in the free troposphere and in the tropics. Even though volcanic SO2 emissions represent 15 % of the total annual sulfur emissions, the volcanic contribution to the tropospheric sulfate aerosol burden is 27 %. Moreover, a sensitivity study on passive degassing emissions, using the annual uncertainties of emissions per volcanoes, also confirmed the non-linear link between tropospheric sulfur species and volcanic emissions. This study highlights the necessity of using accurate estimates of volcanic sources in chemistry-transport models in order to properly simulate tropospheric sulfur species.
The Prevalence of Precipitation from Polar Supercooled Clouds
Authors: Silber Israel , Fridlind Ann M. , Verlinde Johannes , Ackerman Andrew S. , Cesana Grégory V. , Knopf Daniel A.
Published: October 2020

Abstract. Supercooled clouds substantially impact polar surface energy budgets but large-scale models often underestimate their occurrence, which motivates accurately establishing metrics of basic processes. An analysis of long-term measurements at Utqiaġvik, Alaska, and McMurdo Station, Antarctica, combines lidar-validated use of soundings to identify supercooled cloud layers and colocated ground-based profiling radar measurements to quantify cloud base precipitation. We find that more than 85 % (75 %) of sampled supercooled layers are precipitating over the Arctic (Antarctic) site, with more than 75 % (50 %) precipitating continuously to the surface. Such high frequencies can be reconciled with substantially lesser spaceborne estimates by considering differences in radar hydrometeor detection sensitivity. While ice precipitation into supercooled clouds from aloft is common, we also find that the great majority of supercooled cloud layers without ice falling into them are themselves continuously generating precipitation. Such sustained primary ice formation is consistent with continuous activation of immersion-mode ice nucleating particles (INPs), suggesting that supercooled cloud formation is a principal gateway to ice formation at temperatures greater than ~ −38 °C over polar regions. The prevalence of weak precipitation fluxes is also consistent with supercooled cloud longevity, and with well-observed and widely simulated case studies. An analysis of colocated microwave radiometer retrievals suggests that weak precipitation fluxes can be nonetheless consequential to moisture budgets for supercooled clouds owing to small liquid water paths. Finally, we suggest that these ground-based precipitation rate statistics offer valuable guidance for improving the representation of polar cloud processes in large-scale models.
Technical note: Interpreting pH changes
Authors: Fassbender Andrea J. , Orr James C. , Dickson Andrew G.
Published: October 2020

Abstract. The number and quality of ocean pH measurements has increased substantially over the past few decades such that trends, variability, and spatial patterns of change are now being evaluated. However, comparing pH changes across domains with different initial pH values can be misleading because a pH change reflects a relative change in the hydrogen ion concentration ([H+]–expressed in mol kg−1) rather than an absolute change in [H+]. We recommend that [H+] be used in addition to pH when describing such changes and provide three examples illustrating why.
Using a single column model (SGRIST1.0) for connecting model physics and dynamics in the Global-to-Regional Integrated forecast SysTem (GRIST-A20.8)

Abstract. A single column model (SGRIST1.0) is developed as a tool for coupling a full-physics package (from Community Atmosphere Model, version 5 (CAM5)) to the Global-to-Regional Integrated forecast System (GRIST). In a two-step approach, the full-physics package is first isolated and coupled to SGRIST1.0 for reducing the uncertainties associated with model physics and assessing its behavior, then assimilated by the model dynamical framework. In the first step, SGRIST1.0 serves as a tool for evaluating the physical parameterization suite in the absence of 3D dynamics. Three single column model test cases, including the tropical deep convection, shallow convection, and stratocumulus, demonstrate that the parameterization suite mimics the behaviors in the observations and the reference model (SCAM) outputs. Cloud fraction, cloud liquid, and some other micro- and macro-physical variables are sensitive to the model time step, suggesting time-step dependency of the corresponding parameterization schemes. The second step couples the physics package to the 3D dynamical modeling system, and the verified parameterization suite works well in GRIST. Two physics-dynamics coupling strategies are examined and found to have a clear impact on the intensity of the simulated storm. The incremental operator splitting strategy (ptend_f1_f1), produces a weaker storm than the pure operator splitting strategy (ptend_f2_sudden). Comparing these two splitting approaches, the ptend_f2_sudden coupling strategy has higher large-step stability than the ptend_f1_f1 option, but the intensity of the simulated storm is substantially reduced by ptend_f2_sudden provided that the time step becomes quite large. Some detailed model configuration strategies are suggested when using the CAM5 parameterization suite in GRIST.

Abstract. The occurrence of induced earthquakes in crystalline rocks kilometers from deep wastewater injection wells poses questions about the influence
nonconformity contacts have on the downward and lateral transmission of pore-fluid pressure and poroelastic stresses. We hypothesize that structural
and mineralogical heterogeneities at the sedimentary–crystalline rock nonconformity control the degree to which fluids, fluid pressure, and
associated poroelastic stresses are transmitted over long distances across and along the nonconformity boundary. We examined the spatial
distribution of physical and chemical heterogeneities in outcrops and core samples of the Great Unconformity in the midcontinent of the United
States, capturing a range of tectonic settings and rock properties that we use to characterize the degree of past fluid communication and the
potential for future communication. We identify three end-member nonconformity types that represent a range of properties that will influence direct
fluid pressure transmission and poroelastic responses far from the injection site. These nonconformity types vary depending on whether the contact
is sharp and minimally altered (Type 0), dominated by phyllosilicates (Type I), or secondary non-phyllosilicate mineralization (Type II). Our
observations provide geologic constraints for modeling fluid migration and the associated pressure communication and poroelastic effects at
large-scale disposal projects by providing relevant subsurface properties and much needed data regarding common alteration minerals that may
interact readily with brines or reactive fluids.

Civic engagement has been an area of research after adoption as an important approach to strengthen citizens’ voice, accountability and communication in public service delivery. However, there is mixed result on its relationship with public service delivery, particularly water services. Civic engagement studies consider collective action as critical success factor in public service delivery. Therefore, this study focused on testing the moderating effect of collective action on the relationship between civic engagement and water service delivery in Kondoa District Council of Tanzania using a cross-sectional design with a sample of 376 households. Cronbach’s alpha value was above 0.7, which was considered good and acceptable. The moderated binary logistic regression was used for data analysis. The analysis confirms the significant moderation effects of collective action on the relationship between citizens’ voice and all three-outcome variables, physical accessibility, quality, and quantity of water supplied. Similarly, collective action had a significant moderation effect on the relationship between accountability and domestic water service delivery variables except for the quantity of water supplied. Moreover, the effect of collective action in the relationship between communication and all the variables of water service delivery is not significant. The study concluded that the influence of civic engagement in water service delivery is effective when citizens are organised into collective action. The study recommends that civic engagement should be strengthened through tailor-made training and mentorship to implant collective action attributes to citizens on issues of public concern, i.e. water service delivery and management.

El estudio “Elementos de calidad educativa desde la perspectiva de estudiantes en Biología, orientación en Ciencias ambientales”, tuvo como propósito conocer la opinión de estudiantes de séptimo y octavo semestre sobre algunos aspectos de la calidad educativa de la carrera que cursan, con la intención de mejorar el proceso formativo de los futuros alumnos, fortaleciendo los aspectos mejor valorados por los mismos. Se realizaron cuestionarios individuales y entrevistas grupales, el análisis de contenido de las respuestas, permitió generar tres unidades de significado: Plan de estudios; Competencias docentes; Administración y Gestión Institucional. Los resultados muestran, como aspectos positivos de la calidad educativa: el tiempo que los profesores dedican para abordar los contenidos, el dominio disciplinar y pedagógico de los mismos, la valorización institucional de la carrera, y el trabajo de tutorías. Se concluye que, para el estudiantado, los principales indicadores de calidad educativa son, en orden de importancia: la formación de sus profesores, la actualización didáctica y la interacción entre Profesor-Estudiante, sobre todo en el interés que el primero demuestra en la formación del alumnado. Es importante tener en cuenta la necesidad de analizar el proceso formativo con mayor complejidad.
Situación de los derechos humanos frente a las migraciones forzadas a partir de la economía política
Authors: Morales Cardiels Jorge
Published: October 2020

En este trabajo se resalta la incompatibilidad entre los derechos humanos y la migración forzada en tránsito. Se refiere la necesidad de procrear mayores consideraciones éticas tomando en cuenta los contextos de crisis humanitaria en los que se encuentran estos desplazamientos humanos, más allá de las decisiones políticas restrictivas, persecutorias y de contención de fronteras que prevalecen en la actualidad. Se toma como ejemplo la migración centroamericana por México para cuestionar el modelo de desarrollo capitalista en su etapa neoliberal, especialmente por considerar que mediante sus mecanismos de acumulación y despojo genera estos mismos desplazamientos. El artículo se enfoca, a partir de la comprensión de la economía política de las migraciones forzadas, en la perspectiva conceptual que desempeñan los derechos humanos y la posición que han asumido los organismos de gobierno y otros mecanismos institucionales que intervienen.
Comparación estadística de dos técnicas metrológicas para la estimación de la incertidumbre de medición de una metodología analítica implementada en el laboratorio de aguas naturales del CIRA - UNAN-Managua
Authors: Herrera M. Jonathan
Published: October 2020

En las diferentes metodologías de ensayos implementadas en los laboratorios a nivel internacional, existe cierta duda de la validez de los resultados reportados, por lo tanto, como requisito es obligatorio para todos los laboratorios que pretenden acreditarse de acuerdo a la norma ISO 17025, contar con una base teórica y técnica confiable para “estimar” dicha duda denominada incertidumbre de la medición. En éste sentido el laboratorio de Aguas Naturales del CIRA-UNAN-Managua desarrolló una comparación metrológica, utilizando como punto de partida un método de ensayo validado y dos técnicas para estimar la incertidumbre (método GUM y método Kragten) ambas técnicas consisten en la definición clara del mensurando y comprensión del procedimiento de medición. La comparación metrológica consistió en tomar el método GUM estableciendo que magnitudes influyen en la medición, definiendo un modelo matemático que relacione las magnitudes de entrada con el mensurando, determina coeficientes de sensibilidad y finalmente estimar la incertidumbre utilizando la ley de propagación de las incertidumbres. Por otro lado Kragten se utilizó un método numérico de diferenciación que permite visualizar las componentes de mayor influencia de forma que sólo se requiere conocer la forma de obtener el resultado final.

Narrative Redemption: A Commentary of McGregor’s Narrative Justice
Authors: Rizov Vladimir
Published: October 2020

Rafe McGregor’s Narrative Justice provides a powerful argument for the merit of an education by and through aesthetics as a way of challenging criminal inhumanity. As a work at the intersection of critical criminology and philosophy, it is a challenging and thoughtful articulation of the criminological imagination. Ultimately, McGregor’s argument highlights the possibility of a political education through aesthetic engagement. The exemplary narratives that McGregor uses in his book are varied and richly evocative. My commentary on the book is in keeping with this spirit and suggests an exemplary narrative of my own from the medium of video games as a way of both complementing McGregor’s book and outlining its merits, as well as proposing a future line of study. With focus on Red Dead Redemption 2, I argue for the importance of considering a given narrative’s context of production and historicity.
