Copyright © 2018 Domínguez-Baleón, Gutiérrez-Mondragón, Campos-González and Rentería. Co-design, defined as collective creativity across the entire design process, can lead to the development of interventions that are more engaging, satisfying, and useful to potential users. However, using this methodology within the research arena requires a shift from traditional practice. Co-design of eHealth interventions with children and young people has additional challenges. This review summarizes the applied core principles of co-design and recommends techniques for undertaking co-design with children and young people. Three examples of co-design during the development of eHealth interventions (Starship Rescue, a computer game for treating anxiety in children with long-term physical conditions, a self-monitoring app for use during treatment of depression in young people, and HABITS, the development of an emotional health and substance use app, and eHealth platform for young people) are provided to illustrate the value and challenges of this contemporary process.

Influence of Jute Fibre on CBR Value of Expansive Soil
Authors: Kumar Sanjeev , Sahu Anil Kumar , Naval Sanjeev
Published: June 2020

Construction of structures on expansive soil is highly risky due to its susceptible behavior towards differential settlements. Different soil stabilization techniques including soil reinforcement have been adopted to improve the properties of the unsuitable soils. In this present study, randomly distributed jute fibres have been used to improve geotechnical properties of expansive soil collected from South Delhi (India). California Bearing Ratio (CBR) tests were carried out on the expansive soil blended with jute fibres. Jute fibres of length 10 mm and 30 mm were included in different percentages viz. 0.25, 0.50, 0.75, 1.00, 1.25 and 1.50 by the dry weight of the soil. The test results indicate that the inclusion of randomly distributed jute fibres significantly improves the CBR value of the soil. The Optimum value of fibre content is found to be 1.25%. An improvement of 226.92% in CBR value of the reinforced soil as compared to unreinforced soil has been observed at the optimum jute fibre content. Since Jute is agricultural waste, the present study provides a cost-effective solution to problematic clayey soils.

Published: June 2020

Roman, edebiyat sosyolojisi açısından başlı başına sosyal bir olgudur. Roman türleri içerisinde özellikle gerçekçi roman; konuları ve roman karakterleri yönüyle toplumsal yapıyı yansıtacak birçok unsura sahiptir. Çağdaş Türk edebiyatında gerçekçi romanlarıyla yer etmiş bir yazar olarak Sabahattin Ali’nin, toplumla ilgili sosyal konuları işleyen romanları; yazıldığı dönemin toplumuna, bireylerine, insan ilişkilerine, toplumsal cinsiyet kurulumuna ve ataerkil kültürüne ilişkin çok sayıda önemli veri içerir. Bu verilerden yola çıkarak yapılacak çözümlemeler, romanın yazıldığı topluma dair bir bellek oluşturabileceğini de gösterir. Bu çalışmada Sabahattin Ali’nin İçimizdeki Şeytan yapıtında, roman karakteri Macide odağa alınarak, toplumsal cinsiyet temelinde kadın temsili analiz edilecektir. Romanda ana karakterler içinde bir kadının temsil düzeyini incelemenin kadının toplumdaki durumunu değerlendirmeye katkı sağlayacağı düşünülmektedir.
Taşlıcalı Yahya Bey’in Şehzȃde Mustafa mersiyesine ontolojik analiz metoduyla bir bakış
Authors: AKTAN Muhammed Felat
Published: June 2020

Klasik edebiyatımızda şerh geleneği yüzyıllardan beri devam eden bir süreçtir. Şârihler belli bir gelenek çerçevesinde eserleri yorumlamış, divan şiirlerini geleneksel şerh metoduyla açıklamışlardır. Günümüzde ise modernizm ile birlikte edebiyatta birçok kuram oluşmuştur. Bu teorik kuramlar edebiyata yeni boyutlar kazandırmış, daha sonra pratiğe dökülerek edebî metinlere farklı yaklaşılmasına zemin hazırlamıştır. Bu yeni yaklaşımlardan biri de ontolojik analiz metodudur. İlk defa Roman Ingarden tarafından uygulanan bu metotta varlık tabakalarının sanat eseriyle ilişkisi irdelenmiştir. Metin merkezli bir teknik olan bu yaklaşımda, sanat eserinin mevcudiyetinden yola çıkılarak metin-okuyucu ilişkisi, estetiğin kapsamı irdelenirken katmanlara işlevsellik ve klasik şerh yöntemine farklı bakış açısı kazandırma bu tekniğin başlıca felsefî hedefleri olmuştur. Çalışmamızda Taşlıcalı Yahya Bey’in Şehzade Mustafa için yazmış olduğu mersiyeyi bu metotla inceleyeceğiz. Ontolojik metodun gelişimi, içeriği ve pratiği hakkında bilgi verildikten sonra Yahya Bey'in Şehzade Mustafa Mersiyesinin birinci bendini bu metotla analiz edeceğiz. Mersiyedeki birinci bentten yola çıkarak şairin psikolojik dünyası, semantik bölümü, kelimelerin algısal olarak karşılığı obje ve karakter imajı ve son olarak da kader katmanı eserde tetkik edilen belli başlı konulardır. Mezkur bölümler incelenirken klasik şerh yöntemindeki bazı uygulamalar ile uyumlu olduğu, bu yöntemin klasik şerh ile birçok ortak temasının olduğu görülmüştür. Edebi sanatların ele alınışı, metnin nesre çevrilmiş hali ve şiir tahlilinden önce verilen metin ile ilgili teknik bilgiler bunlardan birkaçıdır.
Nermî ve bazı lügazlarının çözümü üzerine
Authors: ALKAN Ahmet
Published: June 2020

Sözlükte ‘‘Çöl faresinin, saklandığı yerin bulunmaması için yuvasını labirent gibi eğri büğrü kazması; saptırmak, sözün maksadını gizlemek, şaşırtmalı söz söylemek’’ anlamlarına gelen lagz kelimesinden türetilen lügaz, edebî anlamda adı gizlenen bir nesnenin özelliklerini sıralayarak ve çeşitli remz ve imalarda bulunarak cevabı karşı tarafa çağrıştırmaya dayanan şiirlere denir. Lügaz, Klasik Türk şiirinde 15. yüzyıldan itibaren kullanılmış bir türdür. Adı gizlenen bir nesnenin vasıflarını söylemek ve imada bulunmak suretiyle karşı tarafa sezdirilmesi esasına dayanır. Arap edebiyatında doğmuş, oradan Fars edebiyatına geçmiştir. Türk edebiyatına geçişi de Fars edebiyatı üzerinden olmuştur. Lügazlar temel olarak mana ve lafız lügazları olarak iki kategori altında değerlendirilmiştir. Mana lügazları lügazın çeşitli vasıflarını sıralamak suretiyle muhatabın zihninde gizlenen nesneyi çağrıştırma esasına dayanırken, lafız lügazları, şairin gizlenen nesneyi buldurma amacıyla şiirde çeşitli söz ve kelime oyunları yapmasına dayanır. Bu çalışmada lügaz türünün ortaya çıkışı, tarihi, Türk edebiyatında teşekkülü ve kullanımı hakkında kısaca bilgi verilmiştir. Devamında ise âşıklık geleneğine mensup Nermî mahlaslı şair hakkında elde edilebilen bilgiler sunulmuş ve şairin Mecmû’a-yı Hafîza adlı lügaz mecmuasında tespit edilmiş olan 48 lügazı hakkında bilgi verilmiştir. Nermî’nin lügazları; vezin, nazım şekli, başlangıç ifadeleri olmak üzere şekil ve muhteva açısından incelenmiştir. Bunlardan cevabı tespit edilebilen bazı lügazların çözümü yapılarak şairin lügazlarını meydana getirirken izlediği yol üzerinde durulmuştur. Çalışmada öncelikle Nermî’nin mana lügazı olarak değerlendirilen lügazlarının çözümleri verilmiş, sonrasında ise lafız lügazı özelliği taşıyan lügazları çözümlenmeye çalışılmıştır.

Geri gelmeyen zamanın peşinde bir roman karakteri: Benjy Compson
Authors: HASANUSTA Ümit
Published: June 2020

Bu çalışmada William Faulkner’in Ses ve Öfke adlı eserinin “7 Nisan 1928” başlıklı birinci bölümü, bir modernist anlatı olarak “zaman” ve “bilinç” kavramları bakımından incelenmektedir. Bu bölümde anlatı, zeka özürlü bir karakter olan Benjy Compson’un zihninden, Compson ailesinin tarihini yansıtmaktadır. Faulkner’ın romanındaki deneyselciliğin temelinde ise 20. Yüzyılda dünyada meydana gelen değişimler bulunmaktadır. Bu dönemde “gerçeklik” ve “doğru” kavramları üzerindeki tartışmalar ve bu kavramların tanımlarının değişmesi diğer bütün sanatlarda olduğu gibi edebiyatta da farklı anlatı yöntemlerinin ihtiyacını beraberinde getirmiştir, çünkü bu yeni gerçekliği geleneksel yöntemlerle anlatmak mümkün değildir. Bu çağda, özellikle William James, Henri Bergson, Sigmund Freud gibi bilim insanları ve düşünürler “zaman” ve “bilinç” kavramlarını sorgulamış ve bunlar için yeni tanımlar bulmuşlardır. Birçok modernist yazar da aynı şekilde eserlerinde bu kavramları sorgulamaya, hatta eserlerini, zaman ve bilinci merkeze yerleştirerek kurgulamaya başlamışlardır. William Faulkner’in Ses ve Öfke adlı eseri de zaman ve bilinç konusunda farklı anlatı yöntemleri üreten deneysel bir yapıt olarak modernist romanın önemli bir noktasıdır. Bu çalışmada öncelikle modernist romanın özellikleri ve anlatı geleneğine getirdiği yenilikler incelenecektir. Daha sonra da Faulkner’in yapıtının özellikle Benjy Compson’un tecrübesini yansıtan birinci bölümüne odaklanarak, romanın biçim ve içeriğinin modernist anlatı yöntemleriyle ve “zaman ve bilinç” kavramlarıyla ilişkisi ele alınacaktır.

Bananas are tropical fruit commodities that are very popular and have a high potential to be managed intensively and agribusiness oriented. Banana plants have many benefits for human needs so that they have high economic value. Bananas can play a role as food substitutes containing calories, protein, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins, and minerals that are needed by the human body. The potential development of bananas is quite significant because it has broad adaptability to various agro-climate zones and has excellent potential for commercial growth as an export commodity. The market potential abroad is enormous and continues to increase.  The domestic market's potential also increased due to rising levels of income and quality of life. There are many obstacles to increasing domestic banana production. Besides, processed banana products have not optimally produced as a source of livelihood and community income. This PKM partner business group has prospective business potential to be developed, because the banana and processed banana-based market is enormous, both at local and national levels. The banana production business that has developed has not been economically productive due to various limitations and constraints on land availability. In such conditions, bananas have cultivated as inserted plants. However, these two farmer groups have the potential to be productive farmer groups. The introduction of shade-tolerant bananas can be a solution for increasing banana production on limited land through the intercropping system. While the introduction of improvements to the processing and packaging system of Dempok bananas can improve the added value and quality of the products produced

Published: June 2020

Determination of irrigation channel dimensions is determined by the number of consumptive use values that are empirically determined by the potential evapotranspiration value (ETo). Due to the limited lysimeter measurement data, the ETo value is usually approached by an empirical method using weather data input. The recognized standard method for its reliability and can be used universally in determining ETo values is the FAO Penman-Monteith method. However, the use of this method is only possible if complete weather data is available. This study modified the simplest ETo calculation method, the Thornthwaite method and the evaporation pan method to obtain ETo values as accurate as FAO PM resulted. Callibrations are made by finding the correction number to get the best results shown by the high of correlation number and the efficiency index value. The results obtained are for the area with limited weather data condition, the Thornthwaite method both before and after calibration has better accuracy than the evaporation pan method. While the calibration carried out successfully increased the correlation number and efficiency index of both methods significantly. The results of the two calibrated methods, the Thornthwaite method provides better and satisfactory performance with a ratio between 0.86 and 0.89 and the efficiency index reaches 0.78.

Published: June 2020

Introducción: el electrocardiograma (ECG) es una prueba sencilla de realizar en atención primaria, de fácil acceso y bajo costo. Varios estudios que comparan la interpretación de la lectura del ECG de médicos de familia e internistas en relación con cardiológos muestran las dificultades en la interpretación de los mismos por parte de los primeros. No se encontraron estudios que realicen comparaciones con pediatras.

Objetivo: valorar la competencia de dos posgrados de Pediatría para leer ECG, que reciben entrenamiento convencional previo.

Material y método: previo al inicio del trabajo se realizó capacitación en lectura de ECG para los posgrados de Pediatría de forma de sistematizar la lectura de éste a cargo de un cardiólogo pediatra. Estudio transversal, prospectivo, doble ciego donde dos posgrados de Pediatría interpretaron los ECG y luego fueron evaluados por cardiólogo pediatra, sin ninguno conocer la interpretación de los demás, ni de quién era el trazado. Un investigador externo realizó la comparación de los estudios. Se solicitó autorización a la Dirección General y al Comité de Ética. La participación fue voluntaria, previo consentimiento informado.
Población: se incluyeron todos los ECG de los niños entre 5-15 años que asistieron a la Jornada de evaluación predeportiva. Se realizó ECG de 12 derivaciones por técnico neumocardiólogo a todos los niños.
Uso de probióticos en el tratamiento y la prevención de diarrea aguda en niños
Authors: Machado Karina
Published: June 2020

El principio del uso de probióticos proviene de la utilización de productos fermentados, desde tiempos muy antiguos. Se definen como microorganismos vivos, que administrados en cantidades adecuadas, confieren beneficios para la salud.
Entre las utilidades atribuidas a los probióticos, las más extensamente estudiadas han sido los efectos en niños con diarrea aguda. Existe abundante bibliografía sobre la utilización de estos productos en el tratamiento y la prevención de diarrea aguda infecciosa, y prevención de diarrea nosocomial y de diarrea asociada al uso de antibióticos. Los estudios son heterogéneos en su metodología y muestran resultados dispares, incluso contradictorios. En la interpretación de éstos es imprescindible tener en cuenta las cepas de probióticos utilizadas, las dosis administradas y las características de los pacientes en quienes fueron probadas.
Existe evidencia del beneficio de algunas cepas de probióticos en el tratamiento y la prevención de diarrea aguda en niños. Varias guías de práctica clínica los recomiendan. En Uruguay existe poca oferta de estos productos, y la información disponible es escasa, lo cual dificulta su prescripción segura.
Se revisa en este documento la evidencia científica publicada sobre el uso de probióticos en niños con diarrea aguda.
Obesidad en escolares de acuerdo a tres índices antropométricos
Authors: Mamani Víctor
Published: June 2020

Sr. Editor
A nivel mundial las cifras de sobrepeso y obesidad son alarmantes, están incrementándose en todos los grupos de edad y son la causa principal de muerte y discapacidad en la Región de las Américas. Se han identificado como responsables de este alarmante aumento a factores específicos como la falta de actividad física, la publicidad de alimentos de alta densidad energética y bajo contenido de nutrientes, y el aumento en el tamaño de las porciones. Más preocupante aun es tener obesidad en la infancia, que se asocia con consecuencias adversas en la salud a lo largo de la vida, con mayor riesgo de tener diabetes tipo 2 y afectar emocionalmente a quienes la padecen, originando bajo rendimiento educativo en la etapa escolar.

Tos crónica y otitis recurrente. Discinesia ciliar primaria
Authors: Amaro Verónica , Moreira Isabel , Pinchak Catalina , Perrone Marcela , Akiki Anabel
Published: June 2020

La tos en la infancia es un síntoma muy frecuente y constituye uno de los motivos de consulta más comunes en la práctica pediátrica diaria. En la mayoría de los casos la causa son infecciones respiratorias banales, pero todo niño con tos que persiste más allá de las cuatro a ocho semanas se considera que tiene tos crónica y debe ser evaluado para descartar patologías específicas. En caso de un síndrome canalicular exudativo persistente crónico y otitis recurrentes supuradas, debemos sospechar enfermedades respiratorias crónicas poco frecuentes que requieren una evaluación diagnostica ampliada, dentro de ellas la discinesia ciliar primaria (DCP). La DCP es una enfermedad de herencia principalmente autosómica recesiva, caracterizada por un defecto estructural de las células ciliadas presentes en el tejido respiratorio y gonadal, entre otros, que repercute en su función. Se presenta el caso de un adolescente de 13 años con tos catarral y otitis crónica serosa desde los 6 meses de vida, realizándose el diagnóstico de DCP a los 9 años por la clínica, imagenología, estudio de microscopía electrónica de transmisión y genético. Los métodos diagnósticos de confirmación son complejos en cuanto a su realización e interpretación y solo están disponibles en centros de referencia. El retraso de éstos se asocia a una peor calidad de vida a largo plazo.

Objective: The objective of this study was to review natural ecosystems and agroecosystems to compare the abundance of soil microbial communities and also plant growth. Material and Methods: This study used a random block design method, each soil from both ecosystems is planted with corn and string beans. Each treatment is repeated three times and arranged in random block design. At the end of the study, head height, root display and leaf count were calculated. The data obtained were then analyzed using the SAS 9.0 program. Results: The results showed that soils from agroecosystems had greater microbial abundance and good plant growth responses. Conclusion: The results showed that agroecosystems are ecosystems that have an abundance of microbial communities that are the most good compared to forest ecosystems. This has an impact on good growth responses in agroecosystems compared to forest ecosystems.
La imagen sobre la minería, de los mexicanos. Encuesta nacional: Desinformación y Subinformación de la sociedad
Authors: Navarro-Zamora Lizy
Published: June 2020

Los ciudadanos tienen ideas tanto falsas como verdaderas con respecto a la minería, que en ambos casos deben ser tomadas en cuenta por las instituciones, empresarios y sociedad, para un mayor acercamiento a la conceptualización cultural que la minería implica.

En este trabajo de investigación se aplicó una encuesta que fue realizada con un Universo Nacional de mexicanos mayores de 14 años. En estas percepciones influye la educación institucionalizada, la familia, los medios de comunicación, las Tecnologías de la Información y la Comunicación (TIC), entre otras. Tres de los elementos fundamentales y determinantes en la muestra fueron la edad, el género y la condición socioeconómica.

Se aplicaron un total de 4483 encuestas, cara a cara, con 73 planteamientos, una encuesta extensa, pero sobre todo profunda. Como investigadora social, por la percepción que expresó la sociedad, tenemos el diagnóstico que existe desinformación y subinformación. La subinformación entendida como la carencia de información necesaria, ya sea porque no la buscamos o porque no la ofrecen y la desinformación conceptualizada como la recepción de elementos equivocados ante una realidad.
mHealth Communication Framework using Blockchain and IoT Technologies
Authors: Alam Tanweer
Published: June 2020

The mHealth is a term that is used for mobile health supported by smart devices such as mobile phones, tablets, and wearable smart devices, etc. The smart devices strengthen the efficiency and effectiveness of interaction with patients, physicians, and specialists. Patients nowadays would like to be intimately involved in their diagnosis as well as to make more informed decisions concerning their care. It has begun to measure the success of the quality of treatment. This was a reason that patients trust mHealth to provide them with consistency in their communications with the physicians. Most wireless strategies do not measure up to this standard so that patient engagement ultimately ended up decreasing. The blockchain can boost mHealth through storing and sharing electronic data securely and transparently. It can enhance the accessibility of patient information in real-time. The Internet of Things (IoT) provides a unique identification number to every connected device such as mobile devices, medical devices, and wearable devices. This framework uses the blockchain and IoT technologies together to provide quick help to the patients, monitor remotely, reduce the cost and unnecessarily hospitalization physically and find the real diagnosis. In order to increase patient involvement, mHealth framework with blockchain and IoT technologies has built with the key objective of providing patients with full information on their treatment and diagnosis.
Remembering Election Night 2016: Subjective but not objective metrics of autobiographical memory vary with political affiliation, affective valence, and surprise
Authors: Chiew Kimberly Sarah , Harris Bailey Blume , Adcock R. Alison
Published: June 2020

Flashbulb memories represent a unique phenomenon linking research on cognition with research on emotion, yet most studies on this phenomenon have characterized collective events that are negative and unexpected in nature. In contrast, the 2016 American election of Donald Trump was a public, culturally-shared event, eliciting extreme emotional responses that were positive for some individuals but negative for others, as well as varying levels of surprise. We longitudinally evaluated autobiographical memories for Election Night 2016 in a large online sample of Clinton supporters, Trump supporters, and third-party/non-voters over a 12-month period, in terms of both objective memory metrics (information quantity and memory consistency) and subjective memory metrics (including memory confidence, metacognition, and sensory experience). Emotional responses to the election outcome varied widely, with Clinton supporters reporting highly negative responses, Trump supporters reporting highly positive responses, and third-party/non-voters reporting mildly negative responses. Emotional intensity was enhanced in surprised versus non-surprised individuals. Relative to third-party/non-voters, Clinton and Trump supporters reported greater memory vividness, event importance, and sensory experience. Additionally, memory confidence and rehearsal differed with valence (higher confidence in Trump supporters; higher memory rehearsal in Clinton supporters). These differences in subjective experience were observed despite similar levels of information quantity and consistency across groups. This characterization of memories for surprising positive events suggests they share many of the paradoxical qualities of memories for negative events often discussed as “flashbulb memories”, and further points to important potentially distinct features of memory phenomenology for collectively-experienced, relative to personal, events.
Modelling L1 and the artificial language during artificial language learning
Authors: Tang Kevin , Baer-Henney Dinah
Published: June 2020

Artificial language learning research has become a popular tool to investigate universal mechanisms in language learning. However, often it is unclear whether the found effects are due to learning, or due to artefacts of the native language or the artificial language, and whether findings in only one language will generalise to speakers of other languages. The present study offers a new approach to model the influence of both the L1 and the target artificial language on language learning. The idea is to control for linguistic factors of the artificial and the native language by incorporating measures of wordlikeness into the statistical analysis as covariates. To demonstrate the approach, we extend Linzen and Gallagher (2017)’s study on consonant identity pattern to evaluate whether speakers of German and Mandarin rapidly learn the pattern when influences of L1 and the artificial language are accounted for by incorporating measures assessed by analogical and discriminative learning models over the L1 and artificial lexicon. Results show that nonwords are more likely to be accepted as grammatical if they are more similar to the trained artificial lexicon and more different from the L1 and, crucially, the identity effect is still present. The proposed approach is helpful for designing cross-linguistic studies.
Comparing Static and Dynamic Measures of Affect Intensity and Affective Lability: Do they Measure the Same Thing?
Authors: Sperry Sarah Havens , Kwapil Thomas Richard
Published: June 2020

This was the first study to our knowledge to examine whether dispositional scales of affect intensity and affective lability map on to corresponding momentary affective dynamics. Specifically, we assessed whether the Affect Intensity Measure (AIM) and Affective Lability Scale (ALS) are differentially associated with mean, variability, and instability of negative affect (NA) and positive affect (PA). Young adults (n = 135) completed the AIM, ALS, and 7 days of experience sampling assessments. Higher scores on the AIM were associated with variability and instability of NA and PA whereas the ALS was associated with mean levels of NA and PA. Neither the AIM nor the ALS were associated with reactivity to stressful, negative, or positive experiences in the moment. However, the AIM and ALS accounted for little variance in momentary affective dynamics and effects were generally small. Findings highlighted that static measures of dynamic phenomena poorly map onto momentary measures of affect in daily life. Theoretical and methodological implications are discussed.
Adam Smith and Economic Development in Theory and Practice: a rejection of stadial model?
Authors: Paganelli Maria Pia
Published: June 2020

Adam Smith allegedly offers a model of economic development both in his Lectures on Jurisprudence and in the Wealth of Nations—the so called four stages of development model. The model presents a linear unfolding view of economic development from primitive to advanced stages. But Smith´s own historical examples systematically contradict this model. I thus question whether Adam Smith actually endorses and uses the four stages model of development to illustrate development and suggest that if he does, he does it to discredit it instead. For Smith history teaches that development is more accidental than fitting deterministic models.
Transformation of Childhood Traumatic Experiences to Violence
Authors: Bridge Esra Nihan , Duman Nesrin
Published: June 2020

Although there are several genetic, social, cultural, and evolutionary explanations for violence, this article will only be based on a psychological aspect with a special focus on trauma theory. Traumatic events in childhood including witnessing family violence and experiencing abuse, neglect, loss and abandonment can cause long term emotional pain and distress. Particularly, trauma becomes more severe when children are victims of family violence and parents who are supposed to love, protect, and reassure children become violent and threatening. Traumatic events leave children with overwhelming feelings of fear, anger, and vulnerability. Many authors emphasized the link between childhood traumatic experiences and aggressive behaviors, and they consider trauma and violence inseparable. However, there is little research focusing on the developmental aspects of this relation. Bowlby’s attachment theory suggests that traumatic experiences interrupt a child’s secure attachment and they generate attachment injuries that interfere with obtaining healthy relationships. Ferenczi’s identification with the aggressor theory claims that traumatic experience teaches children both roles: victim role and the abuser role. Trauma in children and youth, differently than trauma in adults, affects underdeveloped personalities and it has a significant role in building the immature personality of children. This article focuses on explaining how childhood traumatic experiences turn into violence in light of Bowlby and Ferenczi's theories.
Personal, social and public resources for social conflict settlement: interdisciplinary approach
Authors: Bevz Halyna
Published: June 2020

The risk of conflict interaction proceeds to invoke requests of studying conflict manifestations and the search for means for its peaceful settlement. The research subject was the category of «resource», which nature is characterized by bi-directionality: on the one hand, the category of «resource» is thought of as the subject matter of conflict interaction due to its scarcity, and on the other hand, it is as a means to enhance the human ability to handle difficult (incl. conflict) straits. The research objective was to refine a concept of the resource under the terms of interdisciplinary knowledge and its role in conflict arrangement practices. The research was conducted on the basis of theoretical analysis and methods of qualitative research (unstructured interview, questionnaire). The article argues that, the resource approach occurred relative to human adaptation processes, coping strategies and health conditions under the study of psychological phenomena. The personal resource potential of human vital activity primarily emerges full blown in the conflict. Instead, the actualization of the following levels (social and public) is of secondary importance and involves a certain level of practical skills in its using to resolve a conflict situation. The resource concept turned to be inadequately presented within the framework of conflict psychology and it could be expanded through the implication of interdisciplinary knowledge, in particular, the economics of resources and its application in the field of strategic management. This will be especially significant for organizational psychology in the context of the issues of the competitive ability development. The use of resources in a situation of interpersonal conflict is proven limited by self-preservation processes. The ability to cooperate different resources in a conflict situation is related to the practice of training relevant skills, which source point could be important people and first-hand experience. The conducted pilot study indicates the significance of applying the interdisciplinary approach as well as emphasizes the urgency of harmonizing the terminological tools in order to increase the effectiveness of creating interdisciplinary relations.
