Authors: Azevedo Vanessa Ragone , Neves Pedro de Almeida
Published: December 2021

O principal objetivo deste artigo é analisar como o setor censitário do domicílio (rural ou urbano) e outros fatores socioeconômicos e demográficos afetaram as atividades escolares dos alunos durante a pandemia da Covid-19, a partir de meados de março de 2020. Dessa forma, apresentam-se as condições anteriores e posteriores ao surgimento do vírus e os pontos mais sensíveis atingidos pela doença, a partir de dados históricos sobre a educação nacional e de dados recentes aferidos através da Pesquisa Nacional por Amostra de Domicílios (PNAD) Covid-19. Para tanto, foi utilizado um modelo de regressão logística, utilizando as variáveis disponíveis no banco de dados para controle das características observáveis. Os principais resultados indicaram a maior tendência a não realização de atividades escolares para indivíduos entrantes ou reentrantes (sem educação prévia) e maiores chances de atividades escolares conforme maior o nível de escolaridade, reforçando as desigualdades educacionais existentes no período pré-pandêmico.
The Development of Postmodern Art: A Historical Overview
Authors: Iswahyudi
Published: December 2021

In general, modernists see the art form as a pure form independent of the art form itself. They give priority over what is shown. Or more importantly, the form or medium of representation they use is themselves. Based on this opinion, it seems that in its development the post-modern travel model can roughly be distinguished between those that are deconstructive and constructive or revisionary. Actually, one of the most prominent characteristics of modernism that distinguishes it from previous cultures such as romanticism, realism or naturalism is the existence of a systematic and amazing categorization. The energy that appears in each part is recognized for its strength. As in this case are the schools: post-impressionism, symbolism, cubism, vorticism, imagination, akmeism, and neo-plasticism. The term modernism was first used in 1890 by the Nicaraguan writer Ruben Dario to distinguish between Latin American literature and Spanish literature. Until the 1920s, modern artists managed to maintain by inspiring and integrating various art groups as a cultural force. These artists include; novelists James Joyce, Marcel Proust, and Andre Breton. In post-modernism also emerged conceptual art, a movement that attaches great importance to concepts. Often the work of conceptual artists is not shown in reality, but the work is limited to sketches and texts in which the artist's ideas are depicted. Post-modern thinkers are disillusioned with grand visions of the past such as Marxism and various religions. According to postmodernists, these visions bring only misery. These old views are being erased and replaced by more personal ideas.

SARS CoV-2 Post Vaccination Syndrome and VINAIDS
Authors: Kelleni Mina
Published: December 2021

Most children and healthy young adults should have never received SARS CoV-2 Vaccines. Inactivated SARS CoV-2 vaccines are safer than nucleic acid-based ones.0-14 days regimen is probably better than 0-21 days regimen for inactivated SARS CoV-2 vaccines. Post vaccination syndrome is analogous to post or para COVID-19 syndrome (long haulers). Nucleic acid-based vaccines could cause vaccine induced novel acute immune dysrhythmic syndrome.
Early knapping techniques do not necessitate cultural transmission
Authors: Snyder William Daniel , Reeves Jonathan Scott , Tennie Claudio
Published: December 2021

Early stone tools are claimed to be the earliest evidence for the cultural transmission of toolmaking techniques, and with it, cumulative culture. This claim has ostensibly been supported by experimental studies wherein modern humans learned stone tool production (knapping) in conditions that provided opportunities for cultural transmission. However, alternative hypotheses propose that individual learning was sufficient for the expression of early knapping techniques. In order to evaluate this possibility, the capacities of individuals to independently re-innovate early knapping techniques need to be determined. For this, individuals must be tested in cultural isolation, i.e., in a test condition in which knapping techniques cannot be culturally transmitted via demonstrations or reverse engineering. Here, we report on the results of this test condition with human participants (N = 28). Naïve individuals spontaneously re-innovated various early knapping techniques, resulting in products resembling the earliest core and flake technologies. These results contradict previous hypotheses and conclusions of earlier experiments that explicitly implicated cultural transmission in Oldowan stone tool production. They suggest instead that knapping techniques among pre-modern hominins could have been individually derived rather than necessitating cultural transmission.

Published: December 2021

West Nias Regency has an enormous potential tourist destination, namely the Hinako Islands which consists of eight beautiful small islands. Yet the limited infrastructure and capacity of human resources have become the obstacle for this potential. The purpose of this study is to provide recommendations for tourism development strategies in the Hinako Islands to increase local government revenues (PAD) and the welfare of local communities. The research question is how is the strategy of the local government in developing tourism in the Hinako Islands?. This research is a field research, qualitative analytical descriptive type. The primary data of the research were observation and in-depth interviews, also supported by secondary data in the form of documentation and relevant literature studies. This study recommends a tourism development model consisting of 3 elements, namely: 1) West Nias Regency Government as a facilitator to provide tourism facilities and infrastructure; And as a regulator to formulate and enforce tourism business rules for the benefit of the Regional Original Income (PAD) and bring prosperity to local communities. 2) Private, namely existing investors, new investors with an ecotourism pattern, and village-owned enterprises (BUM-Des) to work on the industry in the concept of tourism agromina. 3) Community, to be a friendly host for tourists by providing guarantees for tourist safety, maintaining environmental cleanliness, and providing memorable experiences for tourists. The recommended strategies include strategies for developing tourism destinations, the tourism industry, tourism marketing, and tourism institutions.

Open science practices and risks arising from misuse of biological research
Authors: Smith James Andrew , Sandbrink Jonas
Published: December 2021

The proliferation of open science may inadvertently increase the chance of deliberate or accidental misuse of research. Here, we examine the interaction between open science practices and biosecurity and biosafety to identify risks and opportunities for risk mitigation. We argue that open data, code, and materials may increase risks from research with misuse potential, despite their general importance. For instance, increased access to protocols, datasets, and computational methods for viral engineering may increase the risk of release of enhanced pathogens. For this dangerous subset of research, both open science and biosecurity goals may be achieved by using access-controlled repositories or application programming interfaces. The increased use of preprints could challenge any strategy for risk mitigation that relies on assessment at the publication stage, emphasising the need for earlier oversight in the research lifecycle. Preregistration of research, a practice promoted by the open science community, provides an opportunity for achieving biosecurity risk assessment at the conception of research. Open science and biosecurity experts have an important role to play in enabling responsible research with maximal societal benefit.

Authors: Renken Finn , von Bock und Polach Rüdiger Ulrich Franz , Schubnell Jan , Jung Matthias , Oswald Markus , Ehlers Sören , Rother Klemens , Braun Moritz
Published: December 2021

Commonly, to evaluate the influence of the local weld geometry in fatigue test, small-scale specimens are used, assuming those represent a longer weld adequately. In this study, a comparison between short specimens and a long weld is performed. A method is developed for the statistical evaluation of weld toe radii and angles, stress concentration factors and weld quality classes. The results show a strong sampling rate dependence and lower ISO 5817:2014 weld quality results for higher sampling rates. Comparable results between short specimens and a long weld can be achieved using modal values of the parameters assuming a lognormal distribution.
Speed-accuracy tradeoffs in decision making: Perception shifts and goal activation bias decision thresholds
Authors: Larson Jeff , Hawkins Guy
Published: December 2021

A fundamental aspect of decision making is the speed-accuracy tradeoff (SAT): slower decisions tend to be more accurate, but since time is a scarce resource people prefer to conclude decisions more quickly. The current research adds to the SAT literature by documenting two previously unrecognized influences on the SAT: perception shifts and goal activation. Decision makers' perceptions of what constitutes a fast or a slow decision, and what constitutes an accurate or inaccurate decision, are based on prior experience, and these perceptions influence decision speed. Similarly, previous experience in a decision context associates the context with a particular decision goal. Thus, in later decisions the decision context will activate this goal, and thereby influence decision speed. Both of these mechanisms contribute to a specific decision bias: decision speeds are biased toward original decision speeds in a decision context. Four experiments provide evidence for the bias and the two contributing mechanisms.
Inhibitory control hinders habit change
Authors: Horváth Kata , Nemeth Dezso , Janacsek Karolina
Published: December 2021

Our habits constantly influence the environment, often in negative ways that amplify global environmental and health risks. Hence, change is urgent. To facilitate habit change, inhibiting unwanted behaviors appears to be a natural human reaction. Here, we use a novel experimental design to test how inhibitory control affects two key components of changing (rewiring) habit-like behaviors in healthy humans: the acquisition of new habit-like behavior and the simultaneous unlearning of an old one. We found that, while the new behavior was acquired, the old behavior persisted and coexisted with the new. Critically, inhibition hindered both overcoming the old behavior and establishing the new one. Our findings highlight that suppressing unwanted behaviors is not only ineffective but may even further strengthen them. Meanwhile, actively engaging in a preferred behavior appears indispensable for its successful acquisition. Our design could be used to uncover how new approaches affect the cognitive basis of changing habit-like behaviors.
Internalizing and Externalizing Correlates of Parental Overprotection as Measured by the EMBU: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Authors: de Roo Marthe , Veenstra René , Kretschmer Tina
Published: December 2021

Aspects of parenting including overprotection explain individual differences in child adjustment. This review and meta-analysis summarizes studies on parental overprotection and internalizing and externalizing problems. To ensure that findings could be compared as systematically as possible, the focus is on studies that used the overprotection scale of the Egna Minnen Beträffande Uppfostran (“Memories of my Parents’ Upbringing”) (EMBU) questionnaire, a popular instrument to measure parental overprotection. In total, we extracted 176 effects from 29 studies. A modified version of the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale was used to perform quality assessments for the included studies. Parental overprotection was positively associated with offspring internalizing and externalizing problems, with overall estimates ranging from r = .14 to .18. Moderator analyses suggested that effects of maternal were larger than effects of paternal overprotection. Other factors that moderated the strength of the association between overprotection and maladjustment included whether outcomes were self-reported or parent-reported, the design was cross-sectional or longitudinal, and publication year. Cultural context, age at exposure, and child sex did not explain differences between effect sizes. Most findings were based on cross-sectional studies and therefore do not constitute proof of causal relations. Many studies were of less-than-satisfactory quality regarding representativeness of the sample, descriptions of the data collection, and statistical analyses. There is a clear need for well-powered longitudinal studies to strengthen inferences about associations between parental overprotection and internalizing and externalizing problems.
Dynamical systems of self-organized segregation
Authors: Hanßmann Heinz , Momin Angelina
Published: December 2021

We re-consider Schelling’s (1971) bounded neighbourhood model as put into the form of a dynamical system by Haw and Hogan (2018). In the case of a single neighbourhood we explain the occurring bifurcation set, thereby correcting a minor scaling error. In the case of two neighbourhoods we correct a major error and derive a dynamical system that does satisfy the modeling assumptions made by Haw and Hogan (2020), staying as close as possible to their construction. We find that stable integration then is only possible if the populations in the two neighbourhoods have the option to be in neither neighbourhood. In the absence of direct movement between the neighbourhoods the problem is furthermore equivalent to independent single neighbourhood problems.

Published: December 2021

Im Fokus dieser Querschnittstudie steht die individuelle und im Klassenkontext vorherrschende Akkulturationsorientierung und der Zusammenhang mit der erreichten Lesekompetenz von Schülerinnen und Schülern der 9. Klasse. Akkulturationsorientierung wird hierbei im Sinne Berrys (1997) als individuelle Orientierung an der Aufnahme- und Herkunftskultur verstanden, welche in dieser Studie anhand latenter Profilanalysen unter Berücksichtigung affektiver, behavioraler und kognitiver Aspekte komplex erfasst wird. Die so ermittelten Akkulturationsprofile, assimiliert, integriert, separiert und indifferent, werden in Mehrebenenanalysen zunächst auf individueller Ebene berücksichtigt, um die Lesekompetenz von Schülerinnen und Schülern mit Migrationshintergrund in Abhängigkeit von ihren Akkulturationsprofilen mit der von Schülerinnen und Schülern ohne Migrationshintergrund erreichten Lesekompetenz zu vergleichen. Weiter werden die im Klassenkontext vorherrschenden Akkulturationsprofile auf Klassenebene modelliert. Auf Individualebene zeigt sich, dass Schülerinnen und Schüler mit separiertem und indifferentem Akkulturationsprofil niedrigere Lesekompetenzen erzielen als Schülerinnen und Schüler ohne Migrationshintergrund, auf Klassenebene stehen die Anteile der unterschiedlichen Akkulturationsprofile in der Klasse nach Berücksichtigung des besuchten Schultyps in keinem Zusammenhang mit der Lesekompetenz der Schülerinnen und Schüler.
Actuarial Technique of Modelling the Out of Pocket with Deductible and Stop Loss in Health Care Insurance
Authors: Michael Ogungbenle Gbenga
Published: December 2021

The paper is intended to numerically estimate health insurance out of pocket spending from the perspective of the enrollees in order to inform whether health insurance scheme pricing policy delivers value to the enrollees. We study the implications of financing health care insurance using a classification model for health care insurance under the framework of deductibles and stop loss. The paper is designed for health underwriting professionals, particularly those who consult for health insurance schemes. This is essential given the form and emergence of treating enrollees fairly, based on regulations that impact on actuarial consultants advising on health insurance scheme product lines. The objectives of this paper are to demonstrate actuarial methods for estimating (i) total health expenses (ii) out of pocket costs (iii) reimbursements by third party insurance. (iv) examine the actuarial implications of the chosen model. In computing the out of pocket and reimbursement, the Pitacco’s model was adopted because of its relatively computational superiority and the fact that both deductible and stop loss form its core parameters. Our results show that there is a positive relationship between total health expense and the share funded by out of pocket spending. As the health expenditure increases, the share funded by out of pocket progressively increases.

Academic Performing Traditions of Chilean Guitar Art
Authors: Filatova Tetiana
Published: December 2021

The relevance of the article lies in the systematization of the phenomena of the Chilean academic guitar art, the study of the national origins of the performing school, its principles, achievements, transcultural processes and their mutual influences, which led to the popularization of the instrument on the Latin American continent.
The purpose of the article is to create an overview panorama of the development of the academic traditions of Chilean guitar performance, to identify trends in the formation and genealogy of successive ties between generations of soloists.
The methodology includes methods of historical, systemic, as well as comparative analysis (for contextual consideration of the creative activities of famous performers, the formation of a national guitar school, the detection of successive ties between different generations of musicians, the study of the influence of the Spanish academic tradition, Latin American everyday practice of playing and the specifics of playing music on ancient guitar-like instruments of the Baroque era).
Results and conclusions. The cultural and historical panorama of the formation and development of the Chilean academic guitar school of the 20th— early 21st centuries is investigated. The principles and main vectors of the pedagogical activity of its key representatives — Liliana Perez Corey, Luis Lopez, Oscar Ohlsen are characterized. A “genealogical tree” of creative contacts and successive ties between guitarists of different generations has been built. It is concluded that the academic traditions of the Chilean guitar music of the 20th century were formed in the general direction of the development of transcultural phenomena. The performing discourse developed in a complementary way: under the influence of the most famous Spanish classical guitar school that dominates the world (F. Tarrega, A. Segovia, E. Pujol); in the conditions of indirect interaction with the Latin American everyday practice of playing (Argentinean, Uruguayan, Chilean) and the experience of playing music on ancient authentic European instruments (lute, vihuela, baroque guitar). It is noted that as a result of the intensification of creative exchange in the institutional, concert, and festival spheres, at the end of the twentieth century, a representative generation of virtuosos and teachers of classical guitar arose in Chilean culture. Chilean guitarists, no matter in which of the spheres their personal interests were fixed — European old, classical-romantic, modern music or Latin American popular, folklore tradition — put forward the creativity of their compatriots and contemporaries to the leading positions. The appearance of a large number of albums of Chilean guitar music performed by J. A. Escobar, J. Contreras, M. Valdebenito, J. A. Sanchez, L. Orlandini, E. Espinoza, E. Salazar, D. Castro is evidence of close and effective cooperation between virtuosos and domestic composers.
Sheila Watson as a Reader of Simone Weil: Decreation, Affliction, andMetaxuin theThe Double Hook
Authors: Pinder Kait
Published: December 2021

This article examines Sheila Watson’s interest in the notoriously difficult thought of the French philosopher and mystic Simone Weil. Watson read Weil’s work in English and French throughout the 1950s, especially during the time she spent in Paris in 1955 and 1956. While critics have examined Watson’s Paris journals for her discussion of modernists such as Samuel Beckett and Wyndham Lewis, little attention has been paid to her synthesis of, and response to, Weil’s thought in the same pages. Contextualizing Watson’s revisions to The Double Hook in her sustained reading of Weil, this article argues that Weil’s thought informs Watson’s aesthetic and ethical project in the novel. The article analyses Watson’s understanding of three central concepts in Weil’s philosophy – decreation, affliction, and metaxu – and offers a Weilian reading of The Double Hook. By resituating Watson as a reader of Weil, the article also highlights the Canadian author’s belonging within a wider circle of women writers in the mid-century who, like Weil and Watson, also demanded unsentimental responses to violence and suffering.

TREE LITTER PRODUCTION AND DECOMPOSITION IN FOREST ECOSYSTEMS UNDER BACKGROUND CONDITIONS AND INDUSTRIAL AIR POLLUTION
Authors:   Institute of North Industrial Ecology Problems KSC RAS, Ivanova E. A.
Published: December 2021

The paper provides an overview of Russian and foreign articles devoted to the study of the tree litter production and decomposition in forest ecosystems subjected to natural and anthropogenic factors. The spatial variability (below crown and between crown spaces) and the seasonal features of the tree litter production, its chemical composition and decomposition processes are poorly studied. In addition, most of the works, both in native and foreign countries science, highlight the influence of natural factors on the litter production and the processes of its decomposition, while the impact of point sources of industrial air pollution is rarely considered. The study of the variability of the size, fractional and chemical composition and processes of decomposition of tree litter under conditions of industrial air pollution is important for predicting the dynamics of forest ecosystems subjected to the combined action of natural and anthropogenic factors and reducing the negative impact of production processes on forests.

Published: December 2021

Kapal yang banyak digunakan di Indonesia yaitu kapal ikan berbahan dasar fiberglass yang harganya murah, serta proses pembuatannya sederhana dan mudah. Kapal ikan fiberglass merupakan jenis kapal komposit karena terdiri dari pengikat (matrix) berupa polyester dan penguat (reinforcement) dari fiberglass. Namun kapal jenis ini sering mengalami kerusakan akibat dari pembeban yang diterima seperti hantaman ombak yang terus menerus sehingga dapat menyebabkan terjadinya patahan. Salah satu penyebab ketidak mampuan kapal dalam menahan beban yaitu karena tidak memenuhi standar BKI terutama pada desain konstruksi, fraksi volume bahan dan proses laminasi pada lambung kapal ikan fiberglass. Untuk meminimalisir hal itu, dilakukan penelitian dengan memvariasi fraksi volume serat fiberglass dengan metode hand lay up  dan orientasi arah serat 0o dengan tujuan untuk meningkatkan kekuatan tekuk dan tarik sehingga mampu memenuhi standar yang telah ditetapkan.  Dari hasil pengujian, diperoleh fraksi volume serat yang optimum yaitu 12,5 % dengan kekuatan tarik sebesar 79,31 MPa dan kekuatan tekuk sebesar 129,38 MPa serta perkiraan kandungan void-nya yaitu 1,84 %. Hasil yang diperoleh kurang 19% untuk kekuatan tarik dan 13% untuk kekuatan tekut dari standar BKI, namun terdapat indikasi bahwa jika fraksi volume serat yang digunakan lebih dari 12,5 % maka akan bisa memenuhi standar BKI.

Amerikan Dış Politikasında Bir Süreklilik Unsuru: Liberal Değerlerin Yayılması ve Savunulması
Authors: ÇAKIR Muhammet Faruk
Published: December 2021

Liberal değerlerin yayılması ve savunulması, Amerikan dış politikasında süreklilik unsurlarından birisidir. Bu makalede ABD’nin geliştirdiği ve izlediği değerlere dayanan dış politikanın beş özelliği incelenmiştir. Birincisi, Amerikan karar vericileri, değerlere dayanan dış politikayı hem ABD’nin hem de insanlığın yararını gözeterek izlediklerini iddia etmişlerdir. İkincisi, karar vericiler, değerleri gerçekleştirmek adına izlenen siyasalar vasıtasıyla çoğu zaman kısa dönem Amerikan çıkarları elde edilebilmişlerdir. Üçüncüsü, değerler siyasetinde izlenirken benimsedikleri yöntem ve araçları, çoğu zaman Amerikan çıkarlarına öncelik verilerek belirlemişlerdir. Dördüncüsü, ciddi maliyetlerle karşılaştıklarında, değerlere dayanan siyasaları gözden geçirmişlerdir. Sonuncusu, değerlere dayanan dış politika, Amerikan siyasal kültürü ile uyumludur. Bu makalede, söz konusu beş özellik dolayısıyla ABD’nin izlediği değerlere dayanan dış politikanın kendine özgü olduğu ve değerlere dayanan dış politikanın sürekliliğinin de bu beş özellik ışığında anlaşılabileceği ileri sürülmüştür. Amerikan iç siyasetinde ve dünya siyasetinde ABD’yi daha farklı davranmaya zorlayacak köklü değişiklikler meydana gelmediği müddetçe, ABD’nin değerlere dayanan dış politika anlayışı ve pratiğinde büyük bir değişim yaşanmayacağı beklenebilir.

Evolution of Lyrical Image in Ballets of Azerbaijani Composers
Authors: Huseynli Lala
Published: December 2021

This article is devoted to the study of the evolution of the lyrical image in the ballets of Azerbaijani composers. The presented article emphasizes that the Azerbaijani ballet on the extension of the history of the Azerbaijani school of composition functioned indefinitely as an important component of the Azerbaijani musical culture. The theme of this article is actualized in the aspect of the historical approach, as each ballet of Azerbaijani composers, on the other hand, reflected the significant features of the artistic, historical and cultural context. On the other hand, the study of the evolution of the lyrical image in the Azerbaijani ballets reflects the dynamics of the development of the Azerbaijani school of composition. Moreover, the figurative system in Azerbaijani ballets represents the slender line of artistic connections of Azerbaijani culture. The purpose of the research is to study the role of the lyrical image in the evolution of the Azerbaijani ballet. The research methodology is based is based on the use of a historical approach to determine the basic definitions of the study. The expediency of the historical method is due to the fact that the development in the space of historical time should be based on certain basic categories that would reflect the school of composition, its national specifics. The scientific novelty of the research is that for the first time the peculiarities of the evolution of the lyrical image in Azerbaijani ballets – from its origin to modern functioning – are analyzed; the nuances of style creation in the Azerbaijani school of composers in the specified aspect are considered, and also certain art processes are systematized. Conclusions. It is proved that the combination of deep lyricism with dramatic emotions is characteristic of the transfer of lyricism in the drama of ballets at all historical stages of development, in different stylistic contexts. Lyrical images in the ballets of Azerbaijani composers have similar features and are due to the specific content of the national worldview.

Conclusions. The analysis of many of master classes held at the Kyiv National University of Culture and Arts made it possible to make some generalizations of practical experience and propose the following classification by type: conceptual master class, practice-oriented master class, combined master class. Own experience of initiating, planning and conducting master classes and pedagogical observation proves that the construction of the author's models of the educational process in real-time, the practical mastering of music skills within the framework of the broadcast of experience, the activation of the cognitive activity of music seekers are the most effective means of exchange and popularization of modern technologies, techniques, programs to improve professional competence, the formation of an individual creative performing style.
Жанрові особливості аналітичної журналістики у контексті становлення сучасного інформаційного простору
Authors: Гарачковська Оксана
Published: December 2021

У статті розглядається теоретичний аспект жанрових особливостей аналітичної журналістики у контексті становлення сучасного інформаційного простору. Теоретико-методологічної базою дослідження стали праці сучасних журналістикознавців (М. Василенко, М. Тимошик, Д. Григораш, А. Захарченко, В. Здоровега, В. Качан, О. Колесніченко І. Михайлин, А. Москаленко, О. Тертичний, В. Шкляр та інші). Рецепція наукових праць згаданих дослідників дозволила виокремити специфічні риси аналітичних жанрів.

Обґрунтовується теза про те, що назва «аналітичні жанри», безумовно, не є достатньо точною, оскільки і в інформаційних жанрах журналісти також досить широко використовують засоби аналізу, узагальнення. Проте в інформаційних жанрах аналіз, узагальнення вибудовуються переважно на висвітленні окремих подій, фактів, обмежених певними часовими межами. А в аналітичних жанрах часові межі матеріалу значно ширші. Кореспонденція в її характерних зразках охоплює події, факти за декілька місяців, за квартал, півріччя, а іноді й за більш тривалий термін. Стаття передбачає широке охоплення життєвого матеріалу – з погляду його масштабу й часових ознак.

На основі проведеного дослідження зроблено висновок про те, що в аналітичних жанрах журналістські матеріали мають переважно діалогічний характер, незалежно від того, притаманна їм діалогічна форма викладу чи ні. У журналістських матеріалах автор безпосередньо звертається до читача, або ж аргументує для нього щось важливе у своїй свідомості як для співрозмовника. Саме тому в журналістських текстах багатьох жанрів порушуються конкретні питання, пропонуються на них відповіді, наводяться докази на користь тієї чи іншої думки і висуваються контрдокази тощо, що створює ілюзію взаємообміну думками з читачем. Аналітичні жанри передбачають осмислення матеріалу порівняно більшого масштабу, за певний період, виникає можливість порушення важливих питань, вирішення нагальних проблем, узагальнення широкого значення рекомендацій, на основі багатогранного аналізу, теоретичної та практичної аргументації.
Mali: Empower health workers to advocate against female genital cutting
Authors:   Frontiers in Reproductive Health
Published: December 2021

The various initiatives to eradicate FGC in Mali over the past two decades have had little impact on this traditional practice. This study assessed the use of health personnel to combat FGC, as recommended by the World Health Organization. Conducted in 1998 by the Association de Soutien au Developpement des Activites de Population, a nongovernmental organization, and the Ministry of Health, the study covered 14 urban and rural health centers in Bamako and Segou. In the eight health centers that served as experimental sites, 59 health providers, including physicians, midwives, nurses, and aides, attended a three-day training course on identifying and treating medical complications related to FGC and counseling clients about FGC. In the six centers that served as control sites, 48 providers were interviewed. As noted in this brief, health providers are an important potential resource in campaigns to eradicate female genital mutilation, but a concerted effort is needed to ensure that they can become effective behavior change agents. After a three-day training course, providers’ knowledge about FGC increased, but few of them counseled their clients about FGC.
Meeting women's health care needs after abortion
Authors: Huntington Dale
Published: December 2021

Women who seek emergency treatment for abortion complications—bleeding, infection, and injuries to the reproductive tract system—should be a priority group for reproductive health care programs. These women often receive poor-quality services that do not address their multiple health needs. They may be discharged without counseling on postoperative recuperation, family planning (FP), or other reproductive health (RH) issues. Women who have had an induced abortion due to an unwanted pregnancy are likely to have a repeat abortion unless they receive appropriate FP counseling and services. Preventing repeat unsafe abortions is important for RH programs because it saves women's lives, protects women’s health, and reduces the need for costly emergency services for abortion complications. At the 1994 International Conference on Population and Development, the world's governments called for improvements in postabortion medical services. As part of the resulting international postabortion care initiative, the Population Council’s Operations Research and Technical Assistance projects worked collaboratively to conduct research on interventions to improve postabortion care. This brief summarizes the major findings of this research and relevant studies by other international organizations.
Rumour – and (Dis)-Unities of Blackness: A Reading of Globalization in Mia Couto’s The Last Flight of the Flamingo
Authors: Gichingiri Wachira Ibrahim , Muhia Mugo , Kaigai Kimani
Published: December 2021

This article examines how Mia Couto uses representations of rumour in his novel The Last Flight of the Flamingo (2004) as a literary medium for interrogating detachment and/ or attachment of the cultural object/ subject of blackness to modern institutions of Africa and the West through the idea of globalization. The article uses the qualitative research methodology for interrogating the efficacy of the representations of rumour in portraying the idea of globalisation. Through textual analysis, the article examines how the author uses the detached large male sexual organ, discovered outside Tizangara, an imagined remote Mozambican town, to encapsulate the rumour about the cases of some missing United Nations peacekeeping soldiers to the fictionalized idea of globalisation. The United Nations’ commissioned inquiry on the missing soldiers precipitates a parading of the local, national and the international delegation around the severed male sexual organ.
Subversion of Cultural Disparities against African Women: a Feminist critical analysis of Malatji’s short fiction
Authors: Maenetja Nelly , Mogoboya Mphoto
Published: December 2021

It is axiomatic that African women have been compromised by patriarchy for centuries, with culture used as a subterfuge. This paper, therefore, strives to subvert existing cultural adversities meted out against African women for African development. These unsavoury patriarchal tendencies are used to subjugate women by stifling their potential to make a meaningful contribution to Africa’s growth. The paper is, furthermore, based on a critical analysis of the dilemmas of women in Malatji’s short fiction from her text Love Interrupted (2012). It is underscored by African Feminism which is a transformative theory that seeks to popularise the emancipation of women from socio-cultural deprivation. directed by the qualitative research approach. Purposive sampling was employed to select the short stories from other short stories by the same author, and textually analyse them. The paper recommends that for Africa to flourish, she should empower women for equal participation in socio-cultural engagements.

Published: December 2021

Epilepsy is a chronic brain disease resulted from the central nervous system lesion, which leads to repeated seizure occurs for the patients. Automatic seizure detection with Electroencephalogram (EEG) has witnessed great progress. However, existing methods paid little attention to the topological relationships of different EEG electrodes. Latest neuroscience researches have demonstrated the connectivity between different brain regions. Besides, class-imbalance is a common problem in EEG based seizure detection. The duration of epileptic EEG signals is much shorter than that of normal signals. In order to deal with the above mentioned two challenges, we propose to model the multi-channel EEG data using the Attention-based Graph ResNet (AGRN). In particular, each channel of the EEG signal represents a node of the graph and the inter-channel relations are modeled via the adjacency matrix in the graph. The loss function of the ARGN model is re-designed using focal loss to cope with the class-imbalance problem. The proposed ARGN with focal model could learn discriminative features from the raw EEG data. Experiments are carried out on the CHB-MIT dataset. The proposed model achieves an average accuracy of 98.70%, a sensitivity of 97.94%, a specificity of 98.66% and a precision of 98.62%. The Area Under the ROC Curve (AUC) is 98.69%.
