Älterwerden im Spiegel einer Mehrgenerationen-Station
Authors: Hermann Marie-Luise , Pelkowski Ralf
Published: February 2021

Im Beitrag wird ein Mehrgenerationen-Konzept auf einer Psychotherapie-Station mit Schwerpunkt 50+, jedoch mit Angehörigen aller Altersgruppen von 18 bis 90 Jahren, dargestellt. Der Praxisbericht erläutert mehrheitlich positive Erfahrungen, wie sich Generationen im Zusammenleben wie in einer Großfamilie oder Mehrgenerationen-WG aneinander spiegeln können, wie Themen des Älterwerdens in Gruppentherapien eingebracht und welche Übertragungen in der Gruppe genutzt werden können. Verbindende Themen tragen zu Verständigung und sozialer Integration, aber auch zu bewusster Wahrnehmung von Differenz und Abgrenzung der Lebensphasen bei. Die Diskussion von Chancen und Grenzen des Konzepts mündet in einen Ausblick auf eine künftige Vertiefung der »Übergänge im gesamten Lebenszyklus«.

Linguistic Representation of the English-Language Linguo-Cultural Scenario “Banking”
Authors: Belyakova Ol’ga Vladimirovna
Published: February 2021

The paper aims to reveal specificity of linguistic representation of the English-language linguo-cultural scenario “Banking”. The article reveals the notion “linguo-cultural scenario”, describes its structure. The researcher’s attention is focused on identifying structural-semantic peculiarities of structurally separable and inseparable nominative units of the mentioned scenario. Scientific originality of the study lies in the fact that the author suggests a comprehensive linguo-culturological approach to analysing linguistic material within which linguo-cultural scenario of the subject area “Banking” is considered as a cognitive scheme of the speech situation. The findings indicate that in the modern English language, there’s a tendency to linguistic economy. Separability, nominal character and multicomponent structure of the analysed nominators are manifestations of this tendency.

Scientific originality of the paper involves developing a special algorithm to study semantics of the phraseological units representing dynamic processes. Scientific novelty is also determined by the fact that the “force dynamics” category is for the first time applied to analyse phraseological units. The research findings are as follows: the author describes the basic cognitive mechanisms participating in formation of phraseological units’ actual meaning, concludes on reasonability of using the “force dynamics” category to analyse phraseological material.
Features of Text-Forming Function of Onyms in the French Comics
Authors: Salikhova Oksana Konstantinovna
Published: February 2021

The article follows the line of thinking adopted in the earlier study of the onym system in the text of the French comics. The purpose of the study is to identify features of its text-forming function. The work is novel in that it is the first to use the material of a creolised text to determine the plot-compositional role of its onomastic units. As a result of the study, it is found that the genre feature of this literary text, characterised by high density of onomasticon, is use of anthroponyms as background of the narrative. The work also made it possible to determine that the onyms denoting the main characters guarantee temporary development of the plot, background onyms create local-temporal unity, and optional onyms, which do not participate in the text coherence, are meant to specify the context, bringing artistic, symbolic and comic effects.
The interface between political ecology and actor-network theories: exploring the reality of waste
Authors: Rath Swatiprava , swain Pranaya
Published: February 2021

Human-environment relationship is a prominent
discourse in many academic disciplines. Initial studies in social sciences
viewed nature being independent of society but gradually researchers proved that
both are related and dependent upon each other. Current studies confirm the
association between humans and the environment which changes with time and
space. Waste is part of the human environment and is ubiquitous. Climate
change, environmental pollution, and vulnerabilities associated with it have
been major concerns for policymakers, activists, and academicians across the
globe over the past couple of decades. The report of International Solid Waste
Association (ISWA) and United Nations Environment Program (UNEP) in 2006
delineated waste management as an important part of urban infrastructure having
close relation to issues of urban lifestyle, resource consumption pattern,
income level, jobs, socio-economic and cultural factors. According to World
Bank estimation in 2018, waste generation will increase from 2.01 billion tones
in 2016 to 3.40 billion tones in 2050. However, despite its significance in the
academic world, the waste remains under-theorized. The meaning and value of
waste vary from person to person and also from culture to culture. Rapid
urbanization and globalization have led to the social, economic and political
crisis with an increased amount of waste. The multidimensional nature of waste
creates the need for interpreting it in a distinct way. With the help of theoretical pluralism, this
paper aims at explaining the concept of waste through the theoretical lens of
political ecology and actor-network theory. The political ecology perspective
aims at explaining the environmental issues by analyzing the
political-economical causes and provides the alternative for solving the issue.
The actor-network theory explains the environmental issues by studying the
association among actors at various scales with a special focus on the power
interest of the actors as the cause of such association. These two approaches
can be integrated based on the pragmatic approach and can help in understanding
the complex reality of waste. The paper views that societal problems like waste
can be studied with the use of both these theories with a firm hold on the
context as they tend to transcend the dualism between nature and society.
Conceptualizing Strategic Innovation in a Firm Context: A Theoretical Review and Research Agenda
Authors: Mulaa Josephine K. , Kilika James M. , Namusonge Mary J.
Published: February 2021

The literature on strategic management recognizes the pivotal role played by strategic innovation as a strategic choice in organizations in order to create a sustainable competitive advantage. However, although there are emerging calls for the adoption of strategic innovation in a firm’s strategic management process, the concept of strategic innovation is not well understood. The scanty empirical literature reviewed has methodological and conceptual gaps that affect the generalizability of findings even in similar contexts. In this paper, the authors have attempted to review Strategic Innovation and argued that the emerging phenomena from its deployment in firms invite the role of the firm structure and innovative capacity as the firm seeks to enhance its chances of survival in a rapidly changing firm context. The conceptual, theoretical and empirical literature reviewed identified diverse issues that present a case for a theoretical model suitable to advance the current understanding of strategic innovation and the emerging phenomenon in firms. This paper therefore proposes an integrated theoretical model conceptualizing strategic innovation in a firm context and identifies relevant implications for future research.

Spurious correlations in research on ability tilt
Authors: Sorjonen Kimmo , Nilsonne Gustav , Ingre Michael , Melin Bo
Published: February 2021

Ability tilt refers to a within-individual difference between two abilities (X-Y), e.g. differences between tech, verbal and math abilities. Studies have found associations between ability tilts and their constituent abilities (X or Y). Here we investigate whether such associations may be spurious due to the non-independence of the two measures. Using data from the 1997 National Longitudinal Survey of Youth (NLSY), we find that associations between ability and ability tilt may simply be due to more positive associations between two measures of the same or similar abilities compared to two measures of different or dissimilar abilities. This finding calls into question theoretical interpretations that have proposed that ability tilt correlations are due to differential investment of time and effort in one ability at the expense of the other ability.
The effects of different components of yoga: A review of comparative studies and meta-analyses
Authors: Matko Karin , Bringmann Holger Carl , Sedlmeier Peter
Published: February 2021

Traditional yoga encompasses a variety of practices, such as physical postures, breathing techniques, meditation practices, and ethical teachings. Numerous studies and meta-analyses have demonstrated yoga’s efficacy in promoting mental and physical health. Conversely, little is known about how the diverse components of yoga contribute to its overall effect. In this review, we summarize the current evidence on the differential and incremental effects of yoga components. We evaluated 18 comparative studies and 16 meta-analyses that conducted relevant subgroup analyses. These studies and meta-analyses examined a multitude of variables and varied greatly with regard to population, study design, and yoga components under investigation. Some meta-analyses included other mind–body interventions, such as Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR). Nonetheless, combined interventions incorporating multiple components consistently outperformed simpler interventions. Adding breathing and/or meditation practices to yoga interventions proved particularly beneficial in this regard. However, specific components or combinations were more effective in enhancing certain variables or clinical conditions, suggesting a need for custom-tailored programs. Similarly complex mind–body interventions, such as yoga and MBSR, were often equally efficient. Still, most findings remain preliminary and more research is needed. The ethical component of yoga is particularly underresearched. Future studies should isolate and compare all of yoga’s components and evaluate additive effects by investigating different combinations of components. We encourage researchers to refer to theoretical frameworks, use rigorous methodology, and take into account individual factors.
Spring 2020 COVID-19 Surge: Prospective Relations between Demographic Factors, Personality Traits, Social Cognitions and Guideline Adherence, Mask Wearing, and Symptoms in a U.S. Sample
Authors: Milad Elizabeth , Bogg Tim
Published: February 2021

To date, much of the research on individual difference correlates of coronavirus guideline adherence is cross-sectional, leaving prospective associations between these factors unaddressed. Additionally, investigations of prospective predictors of mask-wearing, COVID-19 symptoms, and viral testing remain wanting. The present study examined prospective relations between demographic factors, personality traits, social cognitions and guideline adherence, mask-wearing, symptoms, and viral testing in a U.S. sample (N = 500) during the initial surge of COVID-19 deaths in the United State between late March and early May 2020. Guided by a disposition-belief-motivation framework, correlational analyses, and path models tested associations among baseline personality traits, guideline adherence social cognitions, health beliefs, guideline adherence and follow-up guideline adherence, mask-wearing, symptom counts, and 30-day viral testing. Modeling results showed greater baseline agreeableness, conscientiousness, and extraversion were associated with more frequent baseline guideline adherence. More liberal political beliefs, greater guideline adherence intentions, and more frequent guideline adherence at baseline predicted more frequent mask-wearing at follow-up. Sex (female), lower perceived health, and greater neuroticism at baseline predicted greater symptom counts at follow-up. Reports of viral testing were quite low (1.80%), yet were consistent with concurrent national reporting and limited availability of testing. Results show how inconsistencies and politicization of health policy communication were concomitant with the effects of individual-level political beliefs on mask-wearing during the initial surge. The results further clarify how personality traits related to social responsibility (i.e., agreeableness, conscientiousness) are associated with following new norms for prescribed behaviors and how symptom reporting can be as much a marker of perceived health as emotional stability.
Food for thought: A dissonance between healthcare utilization costs and research funding for eating disorders in Canada
Authors: Stone Kayla , Dimitropoulos Gina , MacMaster Frank
Published: February 2021

In this commentary, we present the premise that, in Canada, mental illness research specific to eating disorders is underfunded, and many Canadians are suffering the consequences of this underinvestment. We highlight three critical aspects of eating disorders: 1) the increasingly common yet potentially life-threatening nature of eating disorders, with an onset usually during adolescence; 2) the challenges and costs to treating eating disorders, with a discussion of current hospital-related costs across Canada; and 3) the glaring discrepancy between the money spent on eating disorder diagnoses/treatment and the funding dollars granted for eating disorder research in Canada (i.e. only $0.70 per affected Canadian in 2018). Research funding per affected individual for other psychiatric and neurodevelopmental conditions are used as comparisons (e.g. $50.17 per affected Canadian with schizophrenia). We suggest that it is time to revolutionize treatment for individuals with eating disorders and use our resources in a more efficient and effective manner, using current neuroimaging and neuromodulation methods as promising examples. We conclude by emphasizing the need for increased research funding in the field of eating disorders in Canada, as the current research-related investments hinder progress in developing neuroscientifically-sound treatments for these populations.
It Matters How You Start: Early Numeracy Mastery Predicts High School Math Course-Taking and College Attendance
Authors: Davis-Kean Pamela , Domina Thurston , Kuhfeld Megan , Ellis Alexa , Gershoff Elizabeth T.
Published: February 2021

Using data from the Applied Problems subtest of the Woodcock-Johnson Tests of Achievement (Woodcock, McGrew, & Mather, 2001) administered to 1,364 children from the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) Study of Early Childcare and Youth Development (SECCYD), this study measures children’s mastery of three numeric competencies (counting, concrete representational arithmetic, and abstract arithmetic operations) at 54 months of age. We find that, even after controlling for key demographic characteristics, the numeric competency that children master prior to school entry relates to important educational transitions in secondary and post-secondary education. Those children who showed low numeric competency prior to school entry enrolled in lower math track classes in high school and were less likely to enroll in college. Important numeracy competency differences at age 54 months related to socioeconomic inequalities were also found. These findings suggest that important indicators of long-term schooling success (i.e., advanced math courses, college enrollment) are evident prior to schooling based on the levels of numeracy mastery.

Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus aureus in Health Care Workers of a Tertiary Care Infectious Disease Hospital in Nepal
Authors: Shah Priyanka , Dhungel Binod , Bastola Anup , Banjara Megh Raj , Rijal Komal Raj , Ghimire Prakash
Published: February 2021

Objectives: Acquisition of mecA gene in infectious strains of Methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) are considered as one of the potential virulence factors that enables the host bacteria to carry out several nosocomial and community-acquired infections. The main aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of MRSA, their antibiogram and mecA gene in the bacterial isolates obtained from the asymptomatic healthcare workers (HCWs) working in Sukraraj Tropical and Infectious Disease Hospital (STIDH), Kathmandu Nepal.

Methods: This prospective cross-sectional study involved the collection of nasal and hands swab of 125 randomly selected HCWs from December 2019 to February 2020. Conventional microbiological methods were used to isolate and identify S. aureus. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was done by modified Kirby Bauer disc diffusion method. MRSA was confirmed by using cefoxitin disc. Detection of mecA gene in the chromosome which was extracted by Phenol: Chloroform: isoamyl alcohol DNA extraction method, amplified by using PCR and visualized by running agarose gel electrophoresis.

Results: The overall and MRSA carriage rate among the HCWs was found to be 28% (35/125) and 10.4% (13/125) respectively. S. aureus carriage rate was highest among sanitation staffs (34.2%) followed by pharmacy staffs (33.3%), laboratory personnel (18.8%), doctors (9.1%) and nurses (7.5%). Similarly, 34.2% (13/38) of the S. aureus isolates were resistant to methicillin, 31.6% (12/38) were inducible-clindamycin resistant and 63.2% (24/38) of them were multi-drug resistant (MDR). All the 13 MRSA isolates harbored the mecA gene.

Conclusions: Carriage rate of MRSA among HCWs was high and alarming, indicating the prompt need of intervention measures to curb the growth and spread of resistant isolates in the hospital settings. Effective surveillance (of infectious diseases) and establishment of advanced diagnostic facilities can assist in estimating the actual burden of the MRSA which in turn helps to formulate and implement the appropriate policies and infection-control programs to address the increasing antimicrobial resistance in the country.
Screening of Indigenous Yeast From Different Ecological Region of Kathmandu Valley and Its Application in Wine Production
Authors: Rajopadhyaya Bipanab , Maharjan Bipana , Maharjan Roshani , Acharya Amrit
Published: February 2021

Objectives: The aim of the study was to isolate and screen the potent yeast from the air for implementing new yeast in wine fermentation.

Methods: In this study, 35 air samples collected in sterile grape juice in glass jar and left over for four days exposure for the growth of yeast from different locations around the Kathmandu Valley. Yeasts were screened by culturing on selective Ethanol Sulfite Agar (ESA) media at 30°C for 2-3 days in Microbiology Lab of Pinnacle College. Yeast isolates were characterized based on colony morphology, microscopic characteristics, Fermentative capacity, Hydrogen sulfide production. Selected yeast isolates were subjected to ethanol fermentation and tested for alcohol tolerance capacity. Wine quality was assessed by sensory evaluation.

Results: Of 35 samples, only 20 yeast isolates were isolated. Among these isolates, the variation in colony characteristics along with oval and ellipsoidal microscopic appearance was observed. All the isolates were able to ferment major sugars such as glucose, fructose and sucrose, but few could not ferment galactose and maltose, while none-fermented lactose and xylose. Here, isolates showing no H2S (L29, L34) and mild H2S producer (isolate L31) were subjected to ethanol fermentation. Also, Comparative analysis was made by using commercial standard wine yeast (STAN). Rapid fermentation of grape juice with initial 21 0Brix was observed in L31 isolate, which produced 12.99% v/v alcohol with titratable acidity (TA) 5.25 g/L, followed by L29 strain with 11.99%v/v alcohol and 4.5 g/L TA which were higher than STAN (10.99% alcohol). These isolates specified as Ethanol tolerance up to 13%v/v, while none of them were able to grow at 15% v/v ethanol concentration and 45°C temperature. However, significant growth was observed at pH 3 along with sugar tolerance capacity at 30 0Brix. The wine produced by these isolates was found to be remarkably different among each other. While the sensory analysis of wine led to isolate L31 being congenial to tasters.

Conclusion: L31 isolate was found to be efficient and advantageous for wine production indicating its industrial application.

Objectives: The objectives of this study was to isolate and identify the bacterial etiological agent of wound infection and explore the status of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus ( MRSA), multidrug Resistant (MDR) and extended spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) producers’ strains in clinical specimens and to find the antibiotic susceptibility pattern.

Methods: A prospective cross sectional study design was conducted from period of February 2014 to October 2014 at Kanti Children Hospital, Kathmandu. The organisms were isolated and identified from pus sample by standard microbiological methods. Antimicrobial susceptibility test was performed by modified the Kirby Bauer disc diffusion method to evaluate the status of MRSA and MDR. ESBL detection was performed by the combined disc diffusion method.

Results: Out of 365 specimens collected between the age group below < 2 to 15 years, 210 (57.73%) samples from male patients and 155 (42.47%) from female patients. In the total samples processed, Gram-positive organisms were found to be more prevalent in which Staphylococcus aureus accounts for 135(47.20%), followed by P. aeruginosa 62 (21.67%), E. coli 29 (10.20%), K. pneumoniae 27 (9.44%), Acinetobacter spp. 20 (6.70%), P. vulgaris 7 (2.44%) and CoNS 6 (2.10%). Among the S. aureus isolates, 29 (21.48%) were found MRSA. Of the total Gram-negative organisms isolated, 74 (51.03%) were MDR and 14 (100%) ESBL producer, (P<0.01). S. aureus was found to be the most important and leading cause of wound infection in this study.

Conclusion: Thus, routine antibiotic susceptibility testing is recommended for empirical drug therapy and proper management of disease.

Urgensi penelitian ini adalah cyberbullying merupakan fenomena yang sering terjadi di Indonesia dan telah menjadi gejala umum.  Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kualitatif dengan teknik pengumpulan data seperti pengamatan atau observasi, studi dokumentasi, serta pengumpulan informasi audio visual. Analisis data dilakukan dengan teknik penarikan kesimpulan melalui kategorisasi, sintesis, penafsiran dan evaluasi yang menghasilkan makna deskriptif. Ringkasan hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa motif para remaja melakukan tindakan cyberbullying adalah: ketidaksukaan terhadap person atau pribadi seseorang, bermaksud menyindir dengan kalimat-kalimat negatif yang kurang etis dan kasar, bertujuan untuk menghibur agar para user atau pengguna internet dapat tertawa, perasaan dengki dan hasud yang menimpa diri remaja, dan merasa bahwa dirinya lebih baik dan berkualitas dibanding orang lain sehingga beranggapan bahwa tindakan cyberbullying adalah hal yang wajar. Penelitian ini dapat memberikan manfaat dan kontribusi bagi pengembangan ilmu psikologi dan konseling, khususnya pada pengembangan kognitif remaja serta pencegahan dan treatment yang harus dilakukan.

Introduction: There is no specific treatment and vaccine for COVID-19 yet. The prospective vaccine is the
primary prevention and is the promising preventive strategy to gain herd immunity. The study aimed to
identify COVID-19 vaccine acceptance rate among primary health care attendees at Durban, South Africa.
Method: A questionnaire based cross-sectional study was conducted at the Kwadabeka Community Health
Centre, Durban, South Africa. Chi-square test and logistic regression were carried out to identify the factors
for COVID-19 vaccine acceptability. P-values <0.05 were reported and considered statistically significant.
Results: Almost two-thirds (61.4%) of the participants reported that they would accept a COVID-19
vaccine. Logistic regression analysis found that respondents’ attitude on whether “COVID-19 pandemic
will be dealt with successfully” was 2.3 times more likely to accept the vaccine (OR=2.3, 95% CI: 1.3-3.8,
p<0.05) and good practice on “use of a face mask to public places were 3 times more likely to accept the
vaccine (OR=3.0, 95% CI: 1.5-6.1, P<0.05). On the contrary, knowledge on “only elderly people die from
COVID-19 (False)” revealed that 44% were less likely to accept the vaccine (OR=0.56, 95% CI: 0.33-0.95,
P<0.05) and practice on social distance “keep a distance of 1-2 m in public places” was 69% less likely to
accept the vaccine (OR=0.31, 95% CI: 0.15-0.63, p<0.05).
Conclusion: The COVID-19 vaccine acceptance rate is comparable with other studies. However,
community-based studies and a mass educational and communication campaign to promote the COVID-19
vaccination coverage to the general population are recommended.

The article deals with the solution of a scientific and applied problem to study the possibility of using existing exponential models to determine the reliability indicators of engineering weapons. Exponential models are widely used to assess the reliability of objects, mainly consisting of radio electronic elements, which led to their mass distribution in the aviation industry, air defense facilities, etc. Experimental operation of typical samples of military road-building equipment and experimental studies of the operating time of the main blocks and assemblies of engineering weapons show that the rate of failure and restoration of these products are functions of time. This state of affairs is associated with the design features of engineering weapons, which are characterized by the complex use of electrical, mechanical, hydraulic and other systems, while during use these systems can often experience significant overloads. At the same time, it should be borne in mind that today the engineering weapons that are in the units generally have a service life longer than that guaranteed by the manufacturer, which significantly affects the parameters of failure rates and recovery. The article shows the procedure for obtaining expressions for calculating the main indicators of the reliability of complex technical systems with an exponential distribution of operating time to failure and their recovery time and it is allowed to use them only for minimal periods of time (from several hours to several days, depending on the intensity of the use of machines) due to for the non-ergodic nature of the process of failures and restorations. In addition, the use of these models should be accompanied by an assessment of the adequacy of the results obtained to the real process with the adjustment of the duration of the corresponding time intervals. Thus, the construction of mathematical models of the technical state of engineering equipment will be accompanied by a search for other conceptual approaches to determining the reliability indicators of engineering equipment and methods for calculating these indicators.

A B S T R A C TEpidermal proliferation and differentiation is a physiological process which playscrucial role in protecting human body from external environment. Ichthyosisvulgaris is a disease caused by disruption of epidermal differentiation process.Disrupted of profilaggrin conversion to filaggrin caused by mutations from thefilaggrin gene (FLG) located on chromosome 1q21. Recently, caused of ichthyosisvulgaris is mutation of the CASP14 gene on chromosome 19p13.12 which producescaspase-14, is involved in the proteolytic degradation of filaggrin. Clinicalmanifestations of ichthyosis vulgaris are hyperlinear palmar and plantar, keratosispilaris, xerosis, and localized or generalized scaling of the skin. Application ofemollients, humectants and keratolytic agents are the main treatment of ichthyosisvulgaris. Further research on caspase-14 as a therapeutic target is needed in thetreatment of ichthyosis vulgaris.
