Assessment of postoperative recovery and post-penopexy return of teaser bulls to natural mounting
Authors: Abarca Acero Mario , Arieta Ronmán Ronnie de Jesús , Lara Rodríguez Daniel Alejandro , Fernández Figueroa José Antonio
Published: December 2022

Objective: To assess the perineal penopexy surgical technique in the preparation of teaser bulls for the bovine industry.
Design: To assess the technique, three 11-month-old Swiss-Zebu bovines, with an average weight of 280 kg, were subject to a surgical procedure. The assessed parameters were time of procedure, postoperative recovery (infectious processes), and return to normal mounting.
Results: This study shows a total average time ―from the beginning of the procedure until the animal can stand― of 23.7 min, plus nine days of postoperative recovery, without infectious processes.
Implications: During the postoperative process, the ring might be rejected, fibrous tissue might form as a reaction to the ring’s material, and the penis might be overexposed because of the ring’s diameter.
Limitations: There might be limitations resulting from the surgeon’s experience regarding the location of the sigmoid flexure.
Results: Using this technique contributes to the improvement of the teaser bull preparation protocols for bovine artificial insemination programs

Objective. To evaluate the botanical composition of grasslands of kikuyu (Cenchrus clandestinus) compared to tall fescue (Lolium arundinaceum cv. Cajun II), each one in association with white clover (Trifolium repens cv. Ladino), in two independent experiments conducted during two seasons, autumn 2018 and winter 2019. Methodology. Two independent experiments under small-scale milk production system (SMPS) were established in the municipality of Aculco, State of Mexico, during autumn 2018 and winter 2019. The botanical composition of grasslands under intensive continuous grazing by breeding cows was evaluated. One grassland planted with tall fescue cv. Cajun II and the other invaded by kikuyu; each grassland was associated with white clover cv. Ladino. The botanical composition of both experiments was analyzed using a complete randomized experimental design.
Results. The kikuyu grassland recorded significant differences (p<0.05) with a higher proportion of forage during the winter 2018. Whereas the tall fescue cv. Cajun II grassland recorded a proportion of forage (p<0.05) higher than its proportion of dead tissue during autumn 2019.
Study Implications: The study of the botanical composition of mixed grasslands destined for livestock grazing allows to identify, propose and define strategies for forage production facing agroclimatic and management conditions in order to generate a better and higher forage yield.
Conclusions: The proportion of kikuyu was higher than that of tall fescue cv. Cajun II during the two seasons and years evaluated. This highlights the adaptability of kikuyu grass under agroecological conditions such as the absence of rains and high temperatures, coupled with the high stocking densities of the milk production systems in the study region.

Politik Ekologi: Respon Kiai dan Pesantren terhadap Degradasi Lingkungan di Madura
Authors: Umam Shohebul
Published: December 2022

Penelitian ini mengkaji tentang krisis ekologi di Sumenep, Madura. Fenomena krisis ekologi, yang terjadi di Sumenep dalam 10 tahun terakhir, tidak dapat dilepaskan dari gerakan lingkungan yang diinisiasi oleh kiai dan pesantren.Dalam konteks ini, kiai dan pesantren, menjadi orkestrator wacana krisis ekologi yang terjadi Kabupaten paling timur pulau Madura itu. Kemudian, kajian ini diletakkan dalam dinamika lanskap politik lokal Sumenep, dan wacana ekologi dalam konteks global seperti diskursus tentang antroposen dan SDG’s (Sustainable Devilopment Goal’s). Oleh karena itu, gerakan lingkungan kiai dan pesantren di Sumenep, selain sebagai gerakan moral yang mengelola pikiran masyarakat melalui terminologi agama, juga tidak bisa dilepaskan dari dinamika politik lokal yang berkembang.

 Pada posisi ini kemudian, gerakan lingkungan kiai dan pesantren, berada di antara dua jalur: pertama,menumbuhkan kesadaran masyarakat secara lebih luas terhadap lingkungan lestari, menumbuhkan wacana ekologi dalam konteks yang lebih luas; ke dua, terjebak ke dalam kepentingan kontestasi politik lokal dengan menggunakan isu-isu krisis ekologi, tanpa menghasilkan diskursus baru tentang ekologi.

Penelitian ini merupakan studi kualitatif, dengan mengkaji data yang digali dari beberapa informan, observasi offline dan online dalam diskusi tentang lingkungan di Sumenep. Penelitian ini, menunjukkan bahwa: 1) Kiai dan pesantren, tidak mampu meletakkan wacana krisis ekologi yang terjadi di Sumenep ke dalam konteks global; 2)  menjadi sebuah gerakan yang mendorong kesadaran lingkungan secara lebih luas, akan tetapi juga tidak bisa dilepaskan dari kepentingan politik sektoral di tingkat lokal Sumenep; 3) tidak mampu merekonstruksi stand of crisis masyarakat terhadap lingkungan, karena krisis literasi yang tidak mampu diatasi oleh kiai dan pesantren sejauh ini.

Eating Disorder Behaviors and Psychological Characteristics: A Comparison Between Athletes and Nonathletes in a Partial Hospitalization Program
Authors: Shimits Arianna , Reid William , Petrie Trent , Trujillo Natasha , Pryor Tamara
Published: December 2022

Although athletes and nonathletes have been compared across different measures of disordered

eating and psychological characteristics, such comparisons are very limited when both groups are seeking inpatient care. Thus, we compared collegiate athletes (n = 18) to a matched group of nonathletes (n = 18), all of whom were patents in a partial hospitalization program (PHP) for eating disorders (EDs). At admission, all patients completed the Temperament and Character Inventory (TCI) and Eating Disorder Inventory-3, and comparisons were made across subscales from these measures. Through a series of t-tests, we found that athlete and nonathletes did not differ on the three behavioral subscales from the EDI; however, they did differ significantly on six subscales assessing temperament or psychological characteristics (e.g., harm avoidance, perfectionism). Across all subscales, athletes scored in the healthier direction, with effect sizes being large. Our findings suggest that, although athletes are similar to nonathletes at admission in terms of behavioral ED indicates, they are healthier on a number of other characteristics that may assist them in successfully completing treatment.  Future research should evaluate the impact that demographic differences, cultural standards of sport, and athletic and gender identity have on the expression of ED pathology in athletes.

Sexual Violence Prevention Among Intercollegiate Athletes, Recreational Athletes, and Non-Athletes: Environmental Considerations for Program Interventions
Authors: Evans James , Lower-Hoppe Leeann , McCray Kristy , Brgoch Shea , Ryder Ashley , Burkhard Brian
Published: December 2022

Previous research has suggested that individual, social, and environmental factors all play a role in developing individual attitudes regarding sexual violence. On college campuses, both intercollegiate and recreational athletics provide opportunities for students to engage in group settings that can impact these attitudes. The primary purpose of this study was to examine how attitudes towards sexual violence compared across intercollegiate athlete, recreational athlete, and non-athlete populations, while accounting for other individual and school factors. Analysis of a large national dataset found very small but statistically significant differences among these groups in their personal social norms, campus social norms, and bystander efficacy regarding sexual violence. Intercollegiate athletes were slightly lower than non-athletes in their personal social norms and bystander efficacy and slightly higher in their perceived campus social norms, while recreational athletes were higher in bystander efficacy, but lower in personal and campus social norms. Other personal demographic factors, including gender identity and sexual orientation, were also significant, while most campus factors were non-significant. These findings suggest the identification of college sport as an at-risk community for sexual violence may be an oversimplification, with implications for program intervention design.

Authors: Pierce Scott , Scheadler Travis , Anderson-Butcher Dawn , Amorose Anthony , Wade-Mdivanian Rebecca
Published: December 2022

The present study explored the degree to which participants of one sport-based positive youth development (PYD) camp learned self-control skills and transferred self-control skills to school during the year after participation. The influence of contextual and personal factors on transfer also were examined. The sample included 176 who participated in the 2017 LiFEsports camp and then returned in 2018. Significant (p<.05) increases in self-control from the beginning (M=3.56) to the end of the 2017 camp (M=3.77) were found. Survey responses in 2018 found that 91% reported using self-control at school during the academic year post-camp participation. Open-ended responses revealed youths’ application of self-control at school to avoid problematic confrontations (e.g., walking away from a fight) and approach academics (e.g., working quietly by oneself). The frequency of self-control transfer to school was significantly predicted by a set of contextual and personal factors, (R2 = .48) including reflection on learning, personal importance, perceived autonomy, confidence in transferring self-control, and peers value of their use of self-control at school. Results suggest youth participating in sport-based PYD programs report transfer of self-control to school and point to important contextual and personal processes affecting life skills transfer.

Analyzed scientific and public activities, everyday life, and lifestyle of the famous historian, Academician of the USSR Academy of Sciences Ivan Krypiakevych, who in Soviet times headed an important socio-humanitarian institution – the Institute of Social Sciences of the USSR Academy of Sciences whose researchers studied history and culture, ethnolinguistic processes in the western region. Summarized the main achievements of the scientist on the history of the princely and Cossack era, and the military history of Ukraine. The study shows the family environment of the scientist – the work and interests of his wife and children, local history trips of the scientist to the Carpathians, around Lviv, Zhovkva, and Rohatyn. The scientist was interested in classical music and folklore, the natural environment of Lviv parks. His collaboration with photographers, bookplate collectors, and public figures in the field of research and preservation of historical, cultural and natural monuments of his native land is shown. Was revealed the friendly atmosphere created by the director of the Institute of Social Sciences of the Academy of Sciences of the Ukrainian SSR in the team, where satirical evenings and creative meetings with Lviv writers were organized.

The head of the institution was focused on forming in the Institute a sense of friendly creative family, an atmosphere of friendliness, respect for the employee regardless of rank and position, and implementing the work of the team not by coercive methods, but by the logic of actions. The Lviv historian always had his position on fundamental issues and consistently defended it, was faithful to his professional vocation, and tried to do good for science, the people, and his family.

The authors of the article summarized the scientific studies and memoirs of Ivan Krypiakevych’s contemporaries – historians Oleksandr Dombrovskyi, Mykola Andrusiak, Omelian Prytsak, Yaroslav Dashkevych, Yaroslav Isaievych, Feodosii Steblii, Oleh Kupchynskyi, Ivan Butych, Mykola Kovalskyi, Orest Matsiuk, philologists – Roman Kirchiv, Mariia Valio, Lev Poliuga, Uliana Yedlinska, Lidia Kots-Hryhorchuk, Dmytro Hrynchyshyn, Bohdana Krysa, etс.
VERBAL SYMBOLS: IN SEARCH OF UKRAINIAN-POLISH PARALLELS
Authors: SIMOVYCH Oksana
Published: December 2022

The archetypal verbal symbols that function in the Ukrainian and Polish language and folklore spaces are analyzed – the symbols of the water elements, spatial and «boundary» symbols. Two aspects of interpretation of symbols in Polish texts are defined – formulation of symbolic meaning from the position of a representative of another (Ukrainian) culture in view of close cultural contexts, as well as from the position of Polish culture bearer, carriers of culture of another, Polish language space.
The ambivalence inherent in symbols unfolding in one context is noted, but it is emphasized that all symbolic meanings can potentially be activated within each context, as their appearance is determined not only by read text, intertextual connections of the symbol, but also many non-textual factors, context culture and awareness of each reader with other contexts of use of this symbol. Dominant symbolic meanings are singled out, as well as those symbolic layers that in the semantic structure of the symbol in the proposed context or contexts are removed from the core, but are constantly preserved in these and other contexts. The symbols woda, richka, ozero / woda, rzeka, jezioro, dynaj, etc. are analyzed, in which the semantics of «border of two worlds» are reconstructed on the basis of the processed texts and it is stated that these words can function as key symbols or as «background» influencing, even directing in the appropriate way the development and interpretation of symbolic meanings of other words (kalyna, werba, bereza, winochok, etc. / rozmaryn, kalina, wianek, warkoch, jablonechka, etc.) in the text. It has been studied how the verbal symbol water can change the interpretation of other symbols and the whole text to the opposite. A wide range of symbolic meanings developed in the semantic structure of the symbol water (and related) within the dominant symbolic meaning as the «boundary between the world of the living and the world of the dead» or as the «boundary between "own" and "foreign" worlds». The semantics of other water-related symbols, such as winok, fartushok / wianek, fartuhek were also studied. In addition to a wide range of meanings of water element symbols, the article presents the spatial symbols doroha (dorizhenka), shlakh / gosciniec, which symbolize, among other things, the change of social status – the transition of a girl or boy to married, concluded that the semantics of the symbol develops within the dominant boundary – value. Among the spatial ones, the semantics of the symbols kalynowyj lis (lisok), temnyj luh, zelenyj bir, haj, hora / kalinowy lasek, ciemny bor, gaichek zielony, pole, gura, etc., as well as those related to the «other» world – the kin woronyj, chornyj woron / wrony (siwy) konichek, wrony, srokа, etc.; an attempt is made to highlight the problem of interpenetration of «own» and «foreign» spaces, when the symbol belonging to the corresponding pole of the opposition is associated with the social status of the subject and the category of evaluation, which may change to the opposite.
THE EXAMINATION OF CONCEPT OF «MORALITY» IN POLITICAL DISCOURSE FROM A COGNITIVE LINGUISTIC PERSPECTIVE
Authors: LEKHNER Ilona , PETRUSHYNETS Andrij
Published: December 2022

The presented paper deals with the concept of morality in a political context. The aforementioned concept was examined within a cognitive linguistic framework and from a cognitive pragmatic perspective. After familiarising ourselves with the literary sources concerning the present topic, newspaper articles relating to politics and published on Transcarpathian Hungarian news portals were analysed. The aim of the analysis was to demonstrate the role of context in conceptualisation. In the course of the research, the authors were also curious about whether or not the concept of morality is understood differently in our everyday lives and when talking about politics, and which related concepts appear when talking about morality in a political context. In order to give answer to questions, fifteen newspaper articles on political topics were put under investigation. The articles involved ideas such as criticising and blaming the Ukrainian society and Hungarian minorities as well as power and social relations. In the course of the research, passages of the articles regarding concepts of morality were identified. As a second step, metaphorical linguistic expressions were systematized and compared with previous research findings to shed light on the relationship between conceptualization and context. The theoretical background of the research was mainly based on the works of George Lakoff, Mark Johnson, ‪Zoltan Kovecses, Albert Widdowson. In order to identify which linguistic expressions were metonymic and/or metaphorical, the Metaphor Identification Procedure VU was followed, which is an improved method of the metaphor identification procedure developed by the Pragglejaz group (2007). The results of the study confirmed Lakoff's (2002) theory that people’s conceptions of morality are related to patterns of political thinking. In addition, the views of cognitive pragmatics that moving from context to language, its influence on our conceptualisation can be demonstrated were also supported.

En este trabajo se estudian las características en el dominio de la frecuencia de pulsos de Descargas Parciales (DP), con el objeto de conformar mapas de clasificación que permitan separar distintas fuentes de pulsos. Dichos mapas son aplicados en las mediciones en línea de DP, donde múltiples fuentes están presentes y, mediante éstos, es posible separar las distintas fuentes y graficar su subpatrón correspondiente, para realizar la identificación de la fuente.
Las características que se analizaron en el dominio de las frecuencias fueron: energía (Vef), módulo máximo (Xmax), frecuencia del módulo máximo (fmax) y ancho de banda (BW_3db). Estos parámetros se calcularon sobre la descomposición de cada pulso mediante la Transformada de Onditas Discreta (TOD). El algoritmo fue probado, tanto con señales obtenidas en probetas, como sobre equipos reales. Los resultados demostraron que es factible separar fuentes de DP empleando el parámetro módulo máximo (Xmax) para las bandas de frecuencia correspondiente al detalle 5 (7,8 a 15,6 MHz) y al detalle 4 (16,5 a 31,2 MHz).

IMPLEMENTATION OF HASHLIPS ART ENGINE TO EARN IMAGE VARIATIONS ON NON-FUNGIBLE TOKEN (NFT)
Authors: Arda Muhammad Adhli , Setiaji Bayu
Published: December 2022

Non-Fungible Token (NFT) is a blockchain-based token that securely maps copyright ownership to digital assets, these digital assets exist on the blockchain network which have identification codes and metadata that are unique and different from each other (one-of-the-kind). . It can also be interpreted as a digital asset that represents a variety of assets that are considered unique. NFTs can be traded for digital assets (images, music, videos, virtual creations) where ownership is recorded in a smart contract on the blockchain. One of the difficulties faced is that it takes a very long time for NFT creators to create a large number of works of art in a short time. To make it easier for creators to create NFT images, Daniel Eugene Botha, or better known as Hashlips, created a Hashlips Art Engine algorithm that can be used to create many different NFT images based on the layers provided using the canvas API and node.js. The hashlips algorithm also generates metadata as an important role in the mechanism for searching and exchanging NFT data and measuring the percentage of rarity in the resulting image. In addition, this study also shows the time required to create NFT images.

Published: December 2022

This research aimed to identify Indonesian National Police (Polri) strategy in carrying out image restoration in the Ferdy Sambo case. The case of Ferdy Sambo attracted substantial public attention throughout the end of 2022 because it involved members of the National Police in criminal acts. This incident undermined the image and reputation of the National Police as a state apparatus whose function is to maintain security and order. Furthermore, the case of Ferdy Sambo has implications for a communication crisis along with reports in the media that involve many parties as sources so that it brings speculation on the image of the Police. A communication strategy to restore the image was required in crisis communication management, especially in the early period of the crisis in order to maintain the organization's reputation. This research used a qualitative approach with qualitative content analysis as the method. This study used William Benoit's strategy formulation as divided image restoration strategies into five categories: "Denial, Evading Responsibility, Reducing offensiveness of events, Corrective action, and Mortification". The findings showed that the Polri image restoration strategy at the beginning of the Ferdy Sambo case was reducing the offensiveness of the event which consisted of bolstering followed by corrective action, while the combination of strategies practice was bolstering, differentiation, compensation, and corrective action in the post-initial case. The image restoration strategy used in the clarification meeting with Commission III of the DPR RI was to assume the crisis as an accident, bolstering, corrective action and mortification. This study found another strategy in the data as the trait of the qualitative content analysis required interpretation, apart from the strategy described by Benoit, namely hierarchical power at the beginning of the crisis, authoritative support in the post-crisis beginning and continuous improvement in the clarification meeting with Commission III of the DPR RI. The organization's power relations with the public and stakeholders determine the rhetoric and various strategies in crisis communication.

Radical prostatectomy is widely used as the primary modality of treatment for clinically localised prostate cancer. A considerable proportion of men will have adverse histopathologic features and could benefit from adjunctive treatments: mainly adjuvant or salvage radiation.

This review focusses on the still unanswered questions:

How to manage the patient after radical prostatectomy? Which patients need further treatment and which ones will not progress if not treated?
How to refine patients selection for further treatments? What is the role for clinical nomograms and biomarkers and which ones are validated?
When is it wise to propose adjuvant radiation therapy (RT) instead of observation with or without salvage RT?
What is the optimal timing for the use of salvage RT and how to choose patients for each approach?
This article discusses the evidence available in the current literature, providing a critical analysis of the controversies of each strategy.
State-of-the-Art Integration of Multiple Kinase Inhibitors in the Treatment of Gastrointestinal Cancers
Authors: Hesp Blair
Published: December 2022

This symposium provided an overview of the efficacy and safety of multikinase inhibitors in colorectal cancer, including treatment sequencing, followed by an examination of the evidence in support of combination therapies and the use of regorafenib in gastrointestinal stromal tumours (GISTs) and other sarcomas. Prof Axel Grothey opened the symposium by introducing multikinase inhibitors and their role in treating malignancies. Prof Marc Ychou reviewed the Phase III studies supporting the use of regorafenib in later lines of therapy for patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). Prof Grothey then discussed practical considerations when treating patients with regorafenib, including treatment sequencing and management of adverse events (AEs). Prof Jean-Yves Blay reviewed the efficacy and safety of regorafenib in treating GISTs and other sarcomas. Prof Eric Van Cutsem discussed potential future roles for regorafenib in treating difficult-to-treat malignancies such as advanced gastric and oesophagogastric cancer. Dr Jordi Bruix then demonstrated the possibility of using regorafenib as a second-line therapy in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) who have progressed following sorafenib therapy.

The occurrence of bladder outlet obstruction (BOO) in men with prostate cancer is common. Although relieving the obstruction may not change prognosis, it is highly valued by patients and is generally associated with improvement in general functioning and wellbeing in the short-term. The aim of this study was to assess the efficacy of high-dose external beam radiation therapy (EBRT) combined with bilateral subcapsular orchidectomy (BSO) to relieve BOO due to prostate cancer.

A retrospective study design was employed and conducted at the Mulago National Referral Hospital. Records of all patients with high-risk prostate cancer who presented with urinary obstructive symptoms and treated with the BSO and EBRT were retrieved. The study variables were age, clinical stage, and pathological Gleason score. The endpoint of the study was for patients to be able to pass urine after removing the urethral catheter, analysed as follows: complete failure to pass urine; partial emptying with a post-void volume >100 mL, and passing urine with complete emptying and a post-void volume <100 mL.

In total, 46 patients were analysed in the period of January 2011–December 2012. Mean age was 71 years (range: 63–93). Eight patients failed to pass urine, while six passed urine incompletely (partial emptying). Thirty-two passed urine with a good stream and emptied the bladder completely. The success rate was 32/46 (70%). All patients had T3 and T4 stage disease with Gleason scores >8. In conclusion, orchidectomy combined with EBRT was found to be an effective and feasible option for relieving BOO due to prostate cancer.
The Janus-Faced Role of Cell-Mediated Immune Responses in Pancreatic Cancer

Published: December 2022

Pancreatic cancer (PC) still represents an unresolved therapeutic challenge due to the associated poor prognosis and the lack of responsiveness to current treatments. Surgery, followed by adjuvant therapy, is the only potentially curative treatment for PC; however, only 20% of PC patients have a potential resectable disease at diagnosis and the overall 5-year survival rate does not exceed 20%. In this context, better, more effective strategies are needed. Immunotherapy is an interesting approach for cancer treatments, but increasing evidence testifies that the immune system plays contrasting roles in both tumour elimination and tumour progression. In particular, PC is considered relatively immune resistant due to the characteristic fibrosis, the presence of immunosuppressive cells, and the compact extracellular matrix that defines the tumour microenvironment and allows for the growth of cancer cells. Despite this, there is evidence that PC cells are able to induce an anti-tumour immune response that can impact the disease course. More recently, it has become clear that PC activates both the anti-cancer immune response and the immunosuppressive effects of the immune system; therefore, for the immune-therapeutic strategies to be effective, they should involve not only the stimulation of the immune system but also the control of the immunosuppressive milieu. In this review, we discuss the dual role of immune cells in the onset and progression of PC.
Prognostic and Predictive Value of FDG-PET as an Aid in Oesophageal Cancer Management
Authors: Xi Mian , Lin Steven H.
Published: December 2022

18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) is widely used for cancer staging before treatment and detection of recurrence during post-treatment surveillance. It is increasingly being recognised that tumour FDG uptake values may not only be prognostic, but could have predictive value to assess for treatment response during and after neoadjuvant therapy in oesophageal cancer (OC). This review focusses on the available evidence concerning the prognostic or predictive role of FDG-PET and evaluates the potential value of FDG-PET in guiding treatment decisions in OC. The correlation between pretreatment maximum standardised uptake value (SUVmax) and prognosis has been demonstrated by multiple studies, although the results are inconsistent and sometimes conflicting. With regard to the predictive value for FDG-PET, post-SUVmax after neoadjuvant chemotherapy appears to hold better promise compared to chemoradiotherapy due to the confounding effect of radiation oesophagitis. Since a number of studies have demonstrated that FDG-PET can discriminate responders from non-responders to induction chemotherapy, the predictive value of FDG-PET imaging was evaluated prospectively and the initial results of CALGB 80803 suggested that changing chemotherapy regimen based on FDG-PET response to induction chemotherapy may improve pathologic complete response rate in PET non-responders when an alternative chemotherapy is used. Furthermore, additional research has suggested that FDG-PET response after induction chemotherapy or neoadjuvant chemotherapy may enrich a patient subset who may potentially avoid subsequent surgery after chemoradiotherapy. However, the majority of reports published on FDG-PET in OC are limited to small, retrospective, and single-institutional studies. Therefore, much of the current evidence-to-date is still hypothesis-generating and would require vigorous validation before FDG-PET could become part of routine clinical practice to direct treatment decisions.
The Agreement Hierarchy revisited: The typology of controllers
Authors: G. Corbett Greville
Published: December 2022

The Agreement Hierarchy consists of four principal target positions: attributive, predicate, relative pronoun and anaphoric personal pronoun. It constrains the distribution of alternative agreements, in that the likelihood of agreement with greater semantic justification increases monotonically as we move rightwards along the hierarchy. The Agreement Hierarchy covers a wide range of disparate data, and continues to figure regularly in work on theoretical syntax. Since the hierarchy was first proposed, typology has moved on. This means that to remain fit for the purposes for which it is currently used, the hierarchy needs an overhaul. The typology of agreement controllers is the area where the need is most urgent; this is therefore our focus. The canonical typology of controllers is shown to have two dimensions: lexeme to phrase, and local to extraneous (the latter involving honorific agreement, associative agreement, back agreement and “pancake sentences”). These two dimensions are amply illustrated. Finally, interactions between the different types of agreement controller are investigated, since these prove revealing for the typology. Besides making progress on the typology of agreement, the paper contributes to typology more generally, in incorporating insights from other typological disciplines.
