El deterioro ambiental ¿es una enfermedad desatendida?
Authors: Arbino Manuel Osvaldo , Oscherov Elena Beatriz
Published: October 2019

El ambiente es un sistema vivo y complejo, expuesto a modificaciones y agresiones. El objetivo de este trabajo es valorizar al ambiente como una entidad capaz de enfermar y por lo tanto ser transmisor de patógenos al hombre y los animales. Se habla de “Enfermedades desatendidas u olvidadas”, a aquellas enfermedades, como las parasitosis, Mal de Chagas-Mazza o Leishmaniosis, que afectan principalmente a poblaciones de escasos recursos en todo el mundo, que persisten mientras haya pobreza y desatendidas principalmente porque los afectados tienen escasa o nula influencia en las prioridades de la salud pública.

Consideramos que en nuestra región, el deterioro ambiental es una de principales enfermedades desatendidas y por lo tanto deberían definirse en forma urgente políticas
que prioricen la salud ambiental como una de las principales estrategias para búsqueda y el mantenimiento de la salud humana. Si consideramos al ambiente como un sistema vivo y complejo, expuesto a modificaciones y agresiones, podemos suponer que  puede deteriorarse y si no está agotada su capacidad de resiliencia, puede recuperarse.

El objetivo de este trabajo es valorizar al ambiente como una entidad capaz de enfermar
y por lo tanto ser transmisor de patógenos al hombre y sus animales. Es entonces necesario definir que entendemos por salud, por ambiente y por salud ambiental.

Authors: Busso Arturo , Avila Facundo , Vera Luis , Sánchez Raúl , Sánchez Guillermo , Zini Luciano
Published: October 2019

Se exponen los primeros resultados de la caracterización de parámetros térmicos y eléctricos de un ciclo frigorífico de compresión de vapor con compresor de 12 V DC de capacidad variable alimentado por un sistema fotovoltaico autónomo (SFVA). Se determinó un coeficiente global de pérdida térmica para el gabinete de UL = 0.38 Wm-2-ºC-1. Para presiones de alta y baja de 90 y 10 PSI respectivamente, la temperatura de evaporación fue de -23 ºC, el consumo del compresor de 32 W y la corriente promedio de trabajo en régimen de 2.75 A.

Para presiones de alta y baja de 130 PSI y 10 PSI respectivamente, la temperatura de evaporación fue de -15 ºC, el consumo del compresor de 45 W y la corriente de carga a 3.7 A. Estos parámetros concuerdan con lo reportado por el fabricante para la temperatura de evaporación de trabajo correspondiente. Del balance de energías intercambiadas por los componentes del ciclo surge que cuanto menor es la temperatura de regulación del termostato mayor el ciclo de encendido impactando negativamente en la vida útil de la batería. La eficiencia del banco de generación se situó en los 10.5  % en promedio, valor bajo en comparación con lo reportado por el fabricante de los módulos. En todos los casos el COP determinado difiere mucho con el esperado según especificaciones quedando pendiente de análisis el origen de esta discrepancia.

Falcon: Balancing Interactive Latency and Resolution Sensitivity for Scalable Linked Visualizations
Authors: Moritz Dominik , Howe Bill , Heer Jeffrey
Published: October 2019

We contribute user-centered prefetching and indexing methods that provide low-latency interactions across linked visualizations, enabling cold-start exploration of billion-record datasets. We implement our methods in Falcon, a web-based system that makes principled trade-offs between latency and resolution to optimize brushing and view switching times. To optimize latency-sensitive brushing actions, Falcon reindexes data upon changes to the active view a user is brushing in. To limit view switching times, Falcon initially loads reduced interactive resolutions, then progressively improves them. Benchmarks show that Falcon sustains real-time interactivity of 50fps for pixel-level brushing and linking across multiple visualizations with no costly precomputation. We show constant brushing performance regardless of data size on datasets ranging from millions of records in the browser to billions when connected to a backing database system.
The Awkarin Index: a Measure of Asymmetry Between a Scholar’s Social Media Profile and Publication
Authors: Setiawan Adib Rifqi
Published: October 2019

I propose the ‘Awkarin Index’ (Λ-index), a measure of asymmetry between a scholar’s social media profile and publication record based on the direct comparison of numbers of citations and social media followers. It was because in the era of social media there are now many different ways that a scholar can build their public profile; the publication of high-quality scientific papers being just one. While social media is a valuable tool for outreach and the sharing of ideas, there is a danger that this form of communication is gaining too high a value and that we are losing sight of key metrics of scientific value, such as citation indices. This work proposes the ‘Awkarin Index’ (Λ-index) to help quantify this case.

Reply #2 to Schimmack: Critique of Cesario et al. (2019)
Authors: Cesario Joseph
Published: October 2019

Recently Cesario et al. (2019) published research in Social Psychological and Personality Science showing no anti-Black disparity in fatal police shootings when shootings were benchmarked against violent crime rates. In a formal critique submitted for publication to SPPS, Schimmack critiqued this work in a number of ways.Here I show that Schimmack misunderstands and mischaracterizes the work of Cesario et al. (2019), so much so that his critique in no way changes the results or conclusions of the original study.
Asking young children to "do science" instead of "be scientists" increases science engagement in a randomized field experiment
Authors: Rhodes Marjorie , Cardarelli Amanda , Leslie Sarah-Jane
Published: October 2019

Subtle features of common language can imply to young children that scientists are a special and distinct kind of person—a way of thinking that can interfere with the development of children’s own engagement with science. We conducted a large field experiment (involving 45 pre-kindergarten schools, 130 teachers, and over 1,100 children from racially, ethnically and economically diverse backgrounds) to test if targeting subtle properties of language can increase science engagement in children’s daily lives. Despite strong tendencies to describe scientists as a special kind of person (in a baseline control condition), brief video-based training changed the language that teachers used to introduce science to their students. These changes in language were powerful enough to predict children’s science interest and behavior days later. Thus, subtle features of language shape children’s beliefs and behaviors as they unfold in real world environments. Harnessing these mechanisms could promote science engagement across diverse populations of young children.
Natural Resource Dependence and Rural American Economic Prosperity from 2000 to 2015
Authors: Mueller Tom
Published: October 2019

Research suggests dependence upon natural resource development leads to decreases in per capita income, increases in inequality, and elevated poverty. Natural resource development generally takes two forms, extractive (e.g. oil and gas, mining, timber) and non-extractive (e.g. tourism, recreation, real estate). However, research has rarely examined both in-tandem. Drawing on the concept of dependence (i.e. over-specialization), I test the hypothesis that increasing levels of both forms of development was associated with diminishing returns to economic prosperity— operationalized as per capita income, inequality, and poverty—in rural America over the period of 2000 to 2015. Extractive development exhibited the expected relationship in remote rural counties for all outcomes, while non-extractive development had a generally negative relationship with per capita income, a positive relationship with poverty, and no relationship with inequality. Support for the overall hypothesis was limited due to the returns of non-extractive development being more negative than expected.
Manual Scavengers in India: Living and Working Conditions; with Special Emphasis on the Determining Factors
Authors: U Aparna K , E.K. Jaisal
Published: October 2019

While examining the scope and challenges of social and occupational mobility of manual scavengers in India, the basic factors that determine the living and working conditions of the community cannot be overlooked. Unlike the rest of the world, where economic factors play a key role in forcing people to take up such menial and hazardous occupations, the major part in restricting the social mobility of manual scavengers is played by caste in India. Even if one decides to quit the profession and take up other respectable means of livelihood, the spectre of caste identity haunts him/her throughout life and the person has to face humiliations and social boycotts from the exploiters as well as from within the community. This paper attempts to identify the broad factors that determine the living and working conditions of manual scavengers in India, most of which also play a significant part in the vicious circle of social organisation based on that the caste system that restricts and checks their social and occupational mobility.
"Of Mastery and Weariness": Qualitative Evaluation of the Lecture-RLE Series Scheduling Scheme
Authors: Martinez Rudolf Cymorr Kirby Palogan
Published: October 2019

This paper explored the experiences of students on the Lecture-RLE Series Scheduling Scheme (LRSS) both as an evaluation of the program and as a basis for enhancement. Grounded on the interpretive paradigm, forty two (42) participants were recruited to partake in this study. Further, reflection papers from the participants serve as the narratives of the study and where then reflectively analyze via the process of thematization. After the three (3) level of reflective analysis, the following themes were identified: (1) Dedication: Focused Learning; (2) Mastery of Professional Qualities; (3) Setbacks: Stress & Weariness. The themes shows that in general, the overall experience of the participants was affirmative and optimistic claiming that LRSS promotes a conducive learning environment wherein they felt “less pressured” to perform task. Further the participants felt that the LRSS provides them with a mean to fully realize the development of their professional qualities, skills and attitude of a “real” nurse since it mirrors the realities of an “on-the-job-training”. Lastly, the identified setbacks of the LRSS are two-folds: stress and a sense of weariness, largely attribute to the consecutive days of duty schedules as well as a perceived monotony of activities in the area of exposure. Insights from this study suggest that there is a need to update and upgrade strategies and methodologies of teaching implemented in the clinical area to provide varied approaches to learning skills as well as limit the perception of monotony among student clinicians. Further research that dwells on the (1) nature of stress, (2) the patterns of coping and adjustment among student clinicians is also implied

Published: October 2019

Ecotourism is a growing arena of tourism industry and is a potential tool for sustainable development. This study focuses identifying potentials of ecotourism in Tinjure-Milke-Jaljale (TMJ) area in Eastern Nepal via assessing flow of tourists, purpose for visits, major natural attractions, physical infrastructures and human resources available in the region. Direct interviews were conducted with respondents purposively selected from 50 households using structured questionnaires. Demographic variables and visit purpose were expressed in numbers and percentage using MS-Excel soft ware. A descriptive analysis was performed for the natural features, human resource, physical infrastructures and cultural entities which were collected using standard checklist. Results showed that TMJ was visited by approximately 1, 00,000 internal and 600 international tourists throughout the year in 2018.Th e main purpose of visit to TMJ was to adhere the beauty of rhododendron or landscape followed by religious, study and recreational purposes respectively. While 80% percent of the respondents were aware of the need towards biodiversity conservation focusing Rhododendron forests which listed as a major attraction in the region and 78% agreed to impacts of tourism the area, 75% were unfamiliar with the concept ecotourism. The region with more than 80% forest coverage harbors natural and cultural attractions such as Deurali Bhulke picnic spot, Rock and Rhododendron Garden, Basantapur Botanical garden and view Tower, Tinjure Dada Pathivara Temple, Gupha Pokhari, Singhabahini Devi Temple, Gaunkhuridham, Siddhakali, Sabhapokhari. The present natural and culturally important areas in TMJ show good prospects for ecotourism. However, a detailed study focusing number of seasonal flow of tourists and services provided addressing visitor’s perception is seen important to improve ecotourism.

Published: October 2019

Now health tourism based on yoga, Ayurveda and meditation is growing sector in Nepalese Tourism. Health tourism as one of the most important forms of tourism is not an exception and preparing strategies for its development will not be possible without considering its specific and extraordinary environment. The objective of preparing and is writing this research paper is to formulate suitable strategies for health tourism development in Nepal. This study uses a qualitative approach. We conduct 38 semi structured interviews with related stakeholder’s of health tourism in Nepal, including health service providers, tourism service providers (as enterprise), and government officials. It was carried out in 2017 in Kathmandu, Bhaktapur, Lalitpur, and Pokhara. For strategy formulation, we employ the Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats (SWOT) analysis method to examine the internal and external factors comprehensively, in terms of health tourism development in Nepal. The strategy to the health tourism development will be considered in terms of four relations: strengths-opportunities (S-O), weaknesses-opportunities (W-O), strengths-threats (S-T), weakness-threats (W-T). The results of this study show that the strategy in health tourism development in Nepal, it is necessary to work on policy and regulation, promotion and branding, introducing the quality standards for health products and service as well as to establish the institutional support in order to successful implementation for the strategy of the health tourism development in Nepal.
Students’ Homework Performance and Views on Edmodo
Authors: YALÇIN Ahmet , ŞEVİK Mustafa
Published: October 2019

Using Educational Social Networking Sites (ESNSs) in educational settings has been a very popular practice especially in the past decade. Yet, its impact on learning is still under discussion. With this purpose in mind, this experimental study aims to investigate university vocational school students’ homework performance in Edmodo, which is an ESNS, and to identify their views on online assignments. During the experimentation, five weekly assignments were given for the experimental group via Edmodo and for the control group as pen-and-paper homework. During the assignment process, semi-structured interviews were held with the participants in the experimental group about online assignments. The findings revealed that both groups usually had high rates of homework submission. Moreover, the participants of the control group had a better performance in homework grades. The study also revealed that students usually have positive views on online assignments. The study concluded with the suggestion that EFL teachers should give assignments as online in university vocational schools since they are more instructive, motivating and enjoyable to do for students, as well as, more practical in terms of submission, checking, and grading.
Applied Anthropology in Juridical Grey Spaces
Authors: Reinke Amanda J.
Published: October 2019

Informal justice refers to those legal practices that are traditionally outside the purview of formal law and legal systems. Since the advent of widespread social critique in the United States during the 1960s and 1970s, informal justice models have become increasingly popular and implemented in communities and within the legal system itself. The existence of informal justice mechanisms alongside and within formal justice systems in the US raises a number of questions for applied anthropologists interested in legal anthropology. In this article, I leverage four years of ethnographic fieldwork in the US to argue for the capacity of applied anthropologists to effectively work in grey juridical spaces that are beside and between the law, activism, and emerging bureaucratic regimes.

IS THE TABOO OF FEMALE SEXUALITY THE SOLE REASON FOR THE CONTINUATION OF FEMALE GENITAL MUTILATION IN EGYPT?
Authors: Stew Tabi
Published: October 2019

As the first conviction of FGM in the U.K. proves, female genital mutilation is a ‘harmful cultural practice’ that persists across the world. Egypt has one of the highest rates of FGM in the world. Based on a variety of different studies and questionnaires undertaken in doctors’ surgeries and hospitals across the country, three clear reasons are given for the continuation of the practice. These are the belief that it is decreed by Islam, that it is a tradition and to preserve young women’s chastity as it would reduce their sexual desire. The overarching theme of these justifications is the fear and control of female sexuality, given the teachings of modesty in the Qur’an and the importance of chastity in order to obtain a good marriage in Egyptian society. However, the Qur’an does not condone female genital mutilation or mention it. Additionally, the Qur’an promotes sexual fulfilment and positivity within the confines of marriage for both men and women which directly conflicts with the consequences of FGM. The importance of honour and the preservation of chastity in Egyptian society continues to prevail in modern Egyptian society, and medicalisation legitimises the practice among the educated elite. However, this work hopes to prove that certain interpretations of certain aspects of the Qur’an and the hadith and Sunnah have led to the need to control female sexuality, and these beliefs are intertwined with tradition and result in the continuation of female genital mutilation in Egypt.

Therefore, this qulitative  study sets out to investigate  the students’ engagement in doing Creative writing activities in poetry Class.The findings suggest that Creative writing activities  is able to engage students in poetry classroom. Then emotional engagement ( M= 32,63) is dominated followed by behavioral engagement ( M= 17.24)  and cognitive engagement (M = 15,24 ). So it means Emotional engage­ment from their perspective has more to do with the pleasant and unpleasant emotions students connect to the activity and behavioral engagement focused on their effort but as cognotively not.  In other words, they have effort to simply do the work but  cannot  focused on understand­ing and mastery.  However this result showed that emotional engagement dominated in students engagement in poetry class, cognitive and behavioural still showed the positive engagement in poetry class.
Lesson Planning in EFL Classroom: A Case Study in Lesson Plan Preparation and Implementation
Authors: Raynesa Noor Emiliasari
Published: October 2019

Lesson planning is an important stage that must be done by the teacher before teaching. Through careful planning, the learning process will be more organized. However, based on preliminary studies, it is known that teachers still have difficulties in preparing learning. Even though the learning has been prepared, the learning process goes beyond the plan. This study aims to: 1) explore the teachers’ preparation of teaching English; and 2) investigate the implementation of teachers’ lesson plan in teaching English. As a case study, the research site was in three of secondary schools in Majalengka. Three English teachers were involved as respondents. Interview, observation, and documentation were used to collect the data. The findings showed that teachers prepared the lesson plan by: 1) reviewing the core compentence and basic competence from the syllabus; 2) searching for learning resources; 3) choosing learning media; 4) determining the material; 5) selecting learning method; 6) compiling indicators and goals. However, the activities compiled in the lesson plan were not all implemented. Some disorders occured during the learning process because of teachers behalf, such as meeting, teachers profesionalism training, and other schools’ activities. If some learning activities did not implemented, the teachers made transactional decision to make up the class.

Published: October 2019

The article presents the results of the assessment of the prospects for discovery of industrial concentrations of rare and rare-earth elements in the Alekseevsko-Lysogorskiy uranium-ore area of Ingulskiy megablock of the Ukrainian Shield. General pattern in the distribution of industrial objects of rare-metal and uranium mineralization in the Ingulskiy megablock of the Ukrainian Shield, caused by similar deep-seated factors of ore formation, are revealed. The complex of regional and criteria of uranium mineralization of a rare-earth-thorium-uranium formation in silicon-potassium metasomatites of the Alekseevsko-Lysogorskiy ore region is substantiated: geological-structural, mineralogical-geochemical, hydrogeological. There were presented characteristic local features of manifestations of rare-metal mineralization in this region. Based on the results of the analysis of geological and geophysical materials, it was possible to identify new uranium and complex uranium rare-metal deposits with higher mineralization parameters in optimal geological and structural conditions in the Alekseevsko-Lysogorskiy uranium ore region. There has been established the possibility of identifying within the limits of known uranium ore fields, manifestations of uranium mineralization of the rank such as deposit, ore occurrence of this uranium ore region of industrial concentrations of rare and rare-earth elements. The possibility of increasing the value of known deposits and ore occurrences of uranium of the Alekseevsko-Lysogorskiy uranium ore region due to the complexity of ore use is substantiated. According to the degree of manifestation of the complex of criteria, prospective ore and potentially ore zones are discovered for possible detection of industrial concentrations of rare metals and rare-earth elements within the Alekseevsko-Lysogorskiy ore region. There were developed recommendations for further research in the Alekseevsko-Lysogorskiy uranium ore region with the aim of improving the quality of the raw material base of rare and rare-earth elements.

Research of natural remediation of the subsurface contaminated with petroleum products
Authors: Shpak O. M. , Lohvynenko O. I.
Published: October 2019

Remediation of the subsurface contaminated with petroleum products is the ecological problem on a world scale and a foreground direction of geoecological research in Ukraine. Remediation of contaminated vadose zone can be provided with the activity of microorganisms, mainly micromycets, whose features of location and vital activity depend on a depth, the level of contamination, aerobic conditions, etc. Practically, it is complicated to use artificial microbiological methods and natural remediation of contaminated subsurface due to microorganisms should be taken into consideration. Microorganisms oxidizing hydrocarbons are of particular interest. Field investigations were carried out within the fuel storage of the Boryspil airport where subsurface contamination with petroleum products was revealed in 1998. The research included sampling at contaminated and uncontaminated sites, quality analysis of petroleum product contains in soils and determination of the species composition of micromycets. Soil samples were taken in three wells at different depths – in the center of the contamination source at the depths of 0,1 m and 2,0 m (unsaturated zone) and 4,0 m (saturated zone), in the northern part of the fuel storage in the unsaturated zone at the depths of 0,1 m and 1,0 m, and out of the contamination source in the unsaturated zone at the depth of 3,7 m. Fungus culture determination data in soil samples indicate that variety of their forms depends on a contamination degree, a depth of sampling, lithology and water saturation. Regular monitoring should be carried out including soil sampling and determination of petroleum product contains to specify conclusions about natural remediation of contaminated soils due to life activity of microorganisms oxidizing hydrocarbons.
