Historicizing the Yanacona: Methodological Decisions, Implications and Challenges
Authors: Orías Paola Revilla
Published: January 2022

Based on the critical analysis of historiographic assertions focused on the study of Yanaconazgo as a long-standing labor institution, this text proposes various key factors to broaden the historical perspective. It is supported by concrete data from the context of the jurisdiction of La Plata in Charcas (Bolivia) between the sixteen and eighteenth centuries, which provides a glimpse into the complexity of this labor system, as well as the diversity of situations of both free and unfree servitude in which workers of different origins, genders and ages were immersed. The study encourages a breaking away from methodological attachments or other constraints that may lead to uncritical repetition of certain terms of a proscribing nature. At the same time, it gives an approach to the daily functions that gradually molded this labor institution and that remind us that history is engineered by people’s actions.

Background: Preoperative assessment by calculating the morphological cortical Index (MCI), canal-calcar ratio (CCR), canal flare index (CFI) and canal bone ratio (CBR) will facilitate appropriate surgical planning for total hip arthroplasty. Since no data on indices and ratios of proximal femur in Punjab is available the study was planned to record the same from radiographs of normal adult population. Study design: Cross-sectional population study Methods: MCI, CCR, CFI and CBR were calculated from measurements on anteroposterior radiographs of the proximal femur from 116 male and 96 female subjects with a mean age of 46 years. Results: Morphologic cortical index, canal calcar ratio and canal flare index did not have any statistically significant difference between the two sexes. Canal bone ratio showed a highly significant difference when the male and female group were compared (p = 0.0042). Conclusion: The study has provided baseline data on morphologic cortical index, canal calcar ratio, canal flare index and canal bone ratio of proximal femur in Punjab which may be helpful in surgical planning for total hip arthroplasty and further research in the area.

Published: January 2022

Nurses are the leading healthcare professionals that play a vital role in providing health care facilities based on research findings for positive patient outcomes. The application of research findings is compulsory in nursing practice but considerable amount of barriers could hinder nurses to implement research outcomes in practice. Therefore, to boost research utilization and change current nursing practices the current study observed the obstacles to utilization of research findings in clinical practices within the nursing culture of Pakistan. A descriptive cross sectional study including 76 nurses from Pakistan through convenient sampling technique was conducted. Out of 76 nurses, 69 (87%) were females and 7 (9%) were male nurses working in medicine, surgery, medical specialty, and critical care departments. Majority of the participants belong to age 31-35 years (50%) and 25-30 years (30%) while remaining 20% from age group 36-50 years. The top four barriers were “Inadequate time to implement new ideas”, “non-cooperation of colleagues”, “The unwillingness of nurses to accept change”, “and “Research articles are not published fast”. Conclusion: The results of the present study highlight the main barriers to research utilization among Pakistani nurses. Most of the barriers experienced by Pakistani nurses are related to those explored by other countries’ nurses. Keywords: Research utilization, Perceived barriers, Nurses, Nursing practice

Kvalitet obrazovanja odraslih kao diskurzivna praksa - analiza pristupa međunarodnih organizacija
Authors: Popović Katarina , Maksimović Maja
Published: January 2022

The paper analyzes the approach of international organizations (World Bank, OECD; UNESCO and the European Union) to the concept of quality of adult education through an analysis of current documents that are directly or indirectly related to quality issues. By using critical discourse analysis and focusing on language and terminology of the texts, we came to the conclusion that the current concept of adult education quality was developed within the economic narrative where the purpose of education was seen in the growth of productivity through skills development. This paper provides a possible answer to the question: does the rhetoric of international documents is an indication of the final capitulation of educational paradigm, or it is just adjustment to the ongoing global crisis?

One of the basic and dominant ways of realising life-long educational and learning is educating adults. Success of this process requires adequate enivronment supporting permanent and continuous acquiring new knowledge and skills. Education of adults is the area which has been neglected in the countries of South - Eastern Europe due to many transitional problems, first of all economic ones. Although it has been becoming more and more important issue of the educational policies in the region, adult education has not become the priority yet. Some countries of the South-Eastern Europe have adopted strategies of adult education and some principles of adult education, but their adoption does not mean implementation, i.e. the ''wheel'' which will start development of adult education and realisation of the educational aims. Considering the fact that the aim of the state policy of adult education is obtaining planned development of the area - planned building of the social surrounding and relevant mechanism and resources for education and learning of the adults, i.e. Creating the system for realising the mission of the for achieving the vision of the adult education, and it is necessary that these strategies an instrument of educational policy contain the key developmental elements. So, the intention of this paper is to see and determine the key developmental elements in the adopted strategies based on the critical analyses of the four strategies of the regional countries. The overall presence was measured bay the scale of estimation, and the basis of the esimation was the critical opinion of the researches during strategies analysis. The analysis resulted with the conclusion that the law of adult education and financing education of the adults as a developmental element belong of the category of ''very stressed developmental elements'' and the stuff for adult education are treated as developmental element which is inadequatly stressed (the average is 1. 75) in the analysed strategies. Law, financing, institutions and stuffd as developmental elements have been observed in our research individually - isolated as their developmental strenght which comes into full force in their mutual work. In this context, based on the analysis results, it can be concluded that each analysed strategy represents a strong developmental potential stressed through mutual work of developmental elements.

In order to utilize optimally potential of information and communications technologies, besides access to the technology, citizens should have certain communicology knowledge and develop media competence. Media education cannot radically change the contemporary media market that treats its users as consumers, not as citizens, but can contribute to changes by developing cognitive, technical, cultural and esthetic competence to understand and use of modern media, as well as economic and ideological principles by which it operates. The concept of media education in Bosnia and Herzegovina is not sufficiently developed neither in the public sphere nor in the academic community, and the available data indicate that its integration into the educational programs will be lenghty and difficult process.

Biology learning in class X SMA N 1 Kedunggar has not involved students fully because learning is still conventional in nature, thus making students less active in learning. Based on interviews with biology teachers, in the implementation of learning students tend to be less focused and just listen. One of the difficulties in studying biology according to students is because biology material tends to memorize a lot. Improving the quality of learning in schools is done by a variety of strategies, one alternative that can be taken is the development of teaching materials. Learning is needed that applies a factual learning model so that students are able to explore the knowledge gained and be able to think critically like POE-based modules. This module is expected to be able to develop students' motivation and critical thinking in learning, especially in environmental pollution material. This research was designed as a research and development (R&D). The development of POE-oriented print modules in this study adapted the 4D model (define, design, develop and disseminate) from Thiagarajan, et.al (1974). The results showed that there was an increase in motivation and empowerment of critical thinking through the POE model in learning science on environmental pollution material in SMA Negeri 1 Kedunggalar.

Pembelajaran biologi di kelas X SMA N 1 Kedunggar belum melibatkan siswa sepenuhnya karena pembelajaran masih bersifat konvensional, sehingga mengakibatkan siswa kurang aktif dalam pembelajaran. Sesuai wawancara dengan pengajar biologi, dalam pelaksanaan pembelajaran siswa cenderung kurang fokus serta hanya mendengarkan saja. Salah satu kesulitan belajar biologi menurut siswa yaitu karena materi biologi cenderung banyak hafalan. Peningkatan kualitas pembelajaran di sekolah dilakukan menggunakan banyak sekali seni manajemen, salah satu alternatif yang dapat ditempuh adalah pengembangan bahan ajar. Dibutuhkan pembelajaran yang menerapkan model pembelajaran yang bersifat faktual sehingga siswa mampu menggali pengetahuan yang didapat serta mampu berpikir dengan kritis seperti modul berbasis POE. Modul ini diharapkan mampu membuat motivasi serta berfikir kritis peserta didik dalam belajar, khususnya pada materi pencemaran lingkungan. Penelitian ini dibuat menjadi penelitian pengembangan (Research and Development) atau diklaim menggunakan penelitian R&D. Pengembangan modul cetak berorientasi POE dalam penelitian ini mengadaptasi contoh 4D (define, design, develop and disseminate) dari Thiagarajan, et.al (1974). Hal yang akan terjadi dalam penelitian menunjukkan bahwa adanya peningkatan motivasi serta pemberdayaan berpikir kritis melalui model POE dalam pembelajaran IPA materi pencemaran lingkungan di SMA Negeri 1 Kedunggalar.

This study aims to describe the strategies used in efforts to achieve child development which took place at TK Dwijendra Mataram. The development of children who are the subject of research includes aspects of religious and moral values, physical-motor, cognitive, language, socio-emotional and artistic. Preschool age is a golden age for the growth and development of children. At this golden age a child must be given the right touch to reach the point of maximum development. This research was conducted using a qualitative approach in which the data obtained will be processed and then described in the form of words that describe the results of the study. To test the validity of the data, a triangulation technique was used, which in obtaining the data used the methods of interview, observation and literature study. The results of the study indicate that to achieve the development of religious and moral values, a habituation strategy is used, namely habituation to cultivate a religious and moral culture. Furthermore, on the physical-motor aspect, the teacher uses interactive learning strategies and participatory learning. In the cognitive aspect, the teacher uses a reward strategy, singing method and a Student Center Learning approach. In the language aspect, teachers use mentoring strategies to students to the fullest. Then on the aspect of socio-emotional development, the strategy applied is the fascinating storytelling method. As for the development of the artistic aspect, the school holds extra-curricular activities.

Ludwig Wittgenstein y William James sobre el reduccionismo en psicología y el lenguaje de los procesos mentales
Authors: Marcelo Díaz Soto
Published: January 2022

Wittgenstein y James tuvieron en común su interés por la psicología. El objeto de estudio de esa ciencia, sus métodos y la cuestión de si es o no reducible a una ciencia más fundamental son abordados por ambos de manera diferente. James se aproxima a estos temas teniendo como contexto una ciencia psicológica que busca su propia identidad; Wittgenstein, en cambio, lo hace cuando ya la psicología se ha expresado en diversas escuelas. Pero hay un punto crítico de encuentro entre ambos: el papel que le asignan al lenguaje en su relación con la psicología. Para James hay fallos lingüísticos en la psicología que se originan en el lenguaje coloquial sobre estados mentales; para Wittgenstein, en cambio, se requiere hacer un análisis pormenorizado de ese lenguaje de lo mental en su aplicación a uno mismo y a los demás, pues el lenguaje es la condición misma de una filosofía de la psicología.

Wittgenstein and James were both interested on Psychology. The subject of study, the methods and the question about whether this discipline can be reduced or not to a Fundamental Science are topics that these authors addressed differently. James ‘s thought is based on a context where a psychological science is searching for its own identity; on the other hand, Wittgenstein addresses Psychology when this is already expressed in diverse schools. However, both have something in common: the role assigned to the Language respecting with Psychology. James believed Psychology possess some linguistics mistakes from colloquial language on mental states, but Wittgenstein thought it is necessary to make a detailed analysis about that language of mental process when this is applied to oneself and others, because language is the condition of a philosophy of psychology.
Superinteligencia artifical: utopia ou distopia tecnológica?
Authors: Pablo de Araújo Batista
Published: January 2022

O artigo analisa a possibilidade do surgimento de uma superinteligência artificial em um evento denominado Singularidade. A evolução da capacidade computacional da Inteligência Artificial segue um processo dependente da trajetória. Processos dependentes da trajetória possuem alto grau de previsibilidade, sendo que em tais processos todas as probabilidades de ocorrência de um evento são equiprováveis. Em tais sistemas o passado assume exponencialmente mais importância. A inserção de uma superinteligência capaz de se auto compreender e se auto aprimorar num processo dependente da trajetória, alterará de forma drástica nossa capacidade de previsibilidade e será a causa de uma ruptura no sistema - tipping point. Esse ponto de inflexão altera drasticamente o rumo de todo o sistema, aumentando seu grau de incerteza e de imprevisibilidade. Com a concretização de tal cenário, seremos incapazes de prever com precisão se o surgimento dessa Inteligência terá como consequência uma utopia ou uma distopia tecnológica.

 

The article examines the possibility of the emergence of an artificial superintelligence during an event called Singularity. The evolution of the computing power of Artificial Intelligence follows a path-dependent process. Path-dependent processes have a high degree of predictability, and in such cases all the probabilities of occurrence of an event are equal. In such systems, the past exponentially assumes more importance. Inserting a superintelligence capable of self-understanding and self-improvement during a path-dependent process will drastically change our predicting capacity and will be the cause of a breakdown in the system – a tipping point. This inflection point dramatically alters the course of the entire system, increasing its degree of uncertainty and unpredictability. With the realization of such a scenario, we will be unable to accurately predict whether the emergence of this Intelligence will result in a technological utopia or dystopia.
The Proverbs of a Pandemic: The Early Months of the COVID-19 Pandemic Viewed through the Lens of Google Trends
Authors: Haas Heather A.
Published: January 2022

This article explores the possibility that Google search behavior (as summarized in Google Trends output) may provide an informative lens through which researchers can view shifts in proverb search interest, and a way to see how those shifts relate to particular sociohistorical events. In the application presented here, analyses showed that just as internet searches for terms like “Wuhan,” “coronavirus,” “pandemic,” and “flatten the curve” surged in popularity in the United States in early 2020 at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, so, too, did searches for particular phrases (e.g., “keep calm and carry on,” “this too shall pass,” and “all in this together”) that seemed to provide useful proverbial framings for the events of this time. This analysis, then, offers an overview of the pandemic from a paremiological perspective and further illustrates the potential value of quantitative methods in folklore scholarship.
La representación del bandolero en dos romances de Patricio Antonio López (siglo XVIII)
Authors:   El Colegio de México, Morales Prado Wendy Lucía
Published: January 2022

Se presenta un breve panorama para entender el entorno particular de estas composiciones, su naturaleza cortesana, sus elementos de pertenencia al género de los romances vulgares como el tema y su finalidad noticiera, así como el estilo e intención edificante que lo alejan de la índole popular. Además, se examinan los elementos a partir de los cuales Patricio Antonio López, cacique zapoteca y escritor de romances vulgares, caracteriza al grupo de bandoleros y, en particular, a los cabecillas. Así el autor, a pesar de que en dos romances pretende ensalzar la figura del capitán Miguel Velázquez Lorea, hace una personificación sugestiva de los líderes de esta actividad delictiva en la Nueva España del siglo XVIII, valiéndose de la prenotoriedad y recursos novelescos, no ajenos a la tradición hispánica, pero con un tono personal.

Published: January 2022

Aim of study: To develop non-destructive and rapid monitoring of water and nitrogen status in maize crops.
Area of study: Bu-ali Sina University, Hamedan province, Iran.
Material and methods: We used a low-cost modified consumer-grade camera to extract 40 vegetation indices for monitoring leaf N concentrations, SPAD values and relative water content (RWC). In this regard, 528 images taken by the low-cost camera in two consecutive years (2017 and 2018) from maize plants cultivated in a greenhouse under different irrigation and N treatments were evaluated.
Main results: Results showed that the best performance outcomes regarding the studied vegetation indices were MCARI, CTVI and CR for SPAD values; MCARI, HUE and CTVI for leaf N concentrations; and TRVI, NDVI and DVI for RWC. In order to increase accuracy of estimated measured data, multiple linear regression equations with combinations of the MCARI, TRVI, NDVI and EVI indices were used. As observed, R2 value was 0.91, 0.60 and 0.90 for SPAD, leaf N concentration and RWC estimation, respectively.
Research highlights: The combination of MCARI, TRVI, NDVI and EVI indices provided more accuracy to most of the previous single variable regression models.
Aligning Theories with Conflict Management in Higher Institutions of Learning: Averting Looming Crises to Ensure Success and Stability

Published: January 2022

Higher institutions of learning (HIL) occasionally face conflict situations. These range from minor confrontations and demonstrations to violent strikes. The aim of this study was to align theories with conflict management in HIL to avert looming crises that might affect the core businesses of HIL. Given that conflicts are miscellaneous and disputable, managing them requires integration of various approaches and theories. Therefore, the researchers employed dual concern theory, complexity theory, and contingency theory. The empirical part of the study used the mixed approach with open-ended and closed-ended questionnaires. Data were collected from stakeholders including students, academic staff, non-academic staff, and management members of a selected HIL. The data analysis techniques used computation of means, standard deviations, frequencies, skewness, and correlations to examine the relationship between dependent and independent variables in the study. The findings of the study revealed that when students act as a group during conflicts, it more often than not becomes boundless, unpredictable, and destructive. Therefore, managers should learn when to react, how to react, and in what ways to react to find an amicable solution using conflict management theories. Because this study used the pragmatic approach to align theories with conflict management with the aim of averting looming crises in HIL, other researchers can use purely qualitative methods to validate their findings.
