The origins of low-fire polychrome glazed pottery in China
Authors: Chen Yulai , Wen Rui , Wang Tianyi
Published: September 2020

Ceramics discovered at Yan'an, Shaanxi, are glazed using a polychrome technique previously unknown in the Han Dynasty. Chemical analysis shows similar technological methods to those used during the Warring States period. This paper demonstrates two possible influences for the polychrome decoration that ultimately suggest Eurasian cultural hybridity and exchange.
Determination of Constitutive Material Model Constants for Ti6Al4V Alloy at Near Orthogonal Machining Conditions
Authors: Venkata Sivareddy D. , Vamsi Krishna P. , Venu Gopal A.
Published: September 2020

The accuracy of numerical modeling of a machining process largely depends on material model constants. The Johnson-Cook (J-C) material model constants, i.e., A, B, C, n, and m, describe deformation behavior of material under thermomechanical loading. This paper considers an equivalent strain hardening exponent neq in place of ‘n’ in the J-C constitutive law for accurate prediction of material model constants at near orthogonal machining conditions. The effect of strain on the secondary deformation zone, i.e., the tool-chip interface, is also considered for accurate prediction of material parameters. In the present work, a machining approach based on response surface methodology and particle swarm optimization technique are used to identify J-C material model constants for the Ti6Al4V alloy. The cutting force, feed force, and chip thickness obtained from orthogonal experiments are used to evaluate the physical quantities of Oxley’s extension theory at different rake angles. It is noted that J-C constants determined from the present approach at a 7° rake angle are more accurate in predicting flow stress than J-C constants determined from other methods. J-C constants identified from a machining approach show less deviation from the measured equivalent flow stresses obtained at similar machining conditions.
Ten Questions for Governments—and Answers the Social Sciences Can Provide
Authors: Frey Bruno S. , Osterloh Margit
Published: September 2020

The dramatic interventions to fight the coronavirus pandemic undertaken by many governments all around the globe are unique since the Second World War. They massively restrict economic, civil society, cultural, and personal freedoms. So far the population has been willing to cooperate. In view of the huge current and future costs, it is crucial that citizens remain confident that there are good reasons for the measures. This trust is endangered if the population is unable to understand crucial aspects, and therefore insecurity grows. The costs to be borne vary greatly: permanent employees or civil servants are far less affected than restaurant operators, hairdressers, self-employed cultural workers, and most shop owners. Their confidence is based essentially on how well the following questions are answered. What guidance can the social sciences offer?

Performance Pedagogy: Performing Fluxus Pedagogy in a Contemporary Lithuanian Context
Authors: Griniuk Marija
Published: September 2020

Educators practice performance pedagogy as the method where an educator/facilitator is seen as a performer or actor (Pineau 1994, p. 4). This paper presents an analysis of the historical roots of performance pedagogies in Fluxus pedagogies and performance pedagogy practices within participatory art events in Lithuania as exemplified by festivals AN88 (1988) and AN89 (1989). The case of my research rests on the contemporary implementation of performance pedagogy techniques during the course The Temporary Department of Time, Space, and Action for BA students at the Vilnius Academy of Arts in Lithuania. This research aims to define the concept theories within performance pedagogy in the art academy education, which developed behind the terms Human Semiotics (Andersen 2002), Hyper Performer,1 and InterMedia (Higgins 1984). This project was implemented using the strategy of critical utopian action research in the context of the Vilnius Academy of Arts. The empirical material was gathered during my employment as a guest lecturer and the implementation of my pedagogical internship at the Vilnius Academy of Arts.2These concept theories are defined through. a reflexive analysis of archive material on the historical origin of performance pedagogies, originating in Fluxus pedagogies, local Lithuanian participatory art, and data from the contemporary case of my project The Temporary Department of Time, Space and Action (2018), in the form of archive material, photographs, interviews, observations, notes, and my diary. The results of this research are the application of performance pedagogy concepts and terminology to the art and education projects and the definition of the key concept theories within this field. These results can be useful for artists and those practicing university pedagogy.
Novice Teachers’ Beliefs and Knowledge about Education for Sustainable Development
Authors: Zhukova Olena , Fjodorova Ilona , Iliško Dzintra
Published: September 2020

Incorporating education for sustainable development (ESD) into the curriculum is one of the main priorities of education policy in Latvia and internationally. Implementation of ESD relies greatly on individual teachers’ beliefs, enthusiasm, theoretical knowledge and practical expertise. It is widely recognized that teachers’ beliefs influence their decisions about the curriculum, pedagogy and assessment. While teachers’ beliefs and general pedagogical knowledge receive considerable attention in teacher education research worldwide, novice teachers’ beliefs and knowledge regarding sustainability and ESD are not widely discussed despite the widespread assumption that teacher’s preparedness and intention to teach ESD tend to be motivated by the beliefs and knowledge a teacher holds. Some education researchers argue that novice teachers tend to have limited understanding of sustainability and ESD. The aim of the research described in this article was to reveal the range of ways in which a sample of 32 volunteer novice teachers in Latvia perceive, understand and experience ESD, as well as how ESD relates to their professional practice. A phenomenographic approach is applied in this study. Data collection methods include semi-structured interviews, written questionnaires, and focus group discussions. The study revealed a range of ways in which novice teachers conceptualize sustainability and ESD. The insights from this research might serve to inform teaching and learning practices in the undergraduate and postgraduate teaching courses and to prepare teachers more adequately to implement ESD.
The Psychopedagogical Intervention for the Development of Children’s Spiritual Intelligence: The Quest for the Theoretical Framework
Authors: Grasmane Ina , Pipere Anita
Published: September 2020

The scientific topicality of this study undergirds the demand for innovative, theoretically and empirically grounded program of psychopedagogical intervention for the development of children’s spiritual intelligence. The task for the spirituality research today is building of scientifically sound definitions, theoretical models and constructs of spiritual development. Currently the terminology in this field is rather vague; guidelines for the application of spiritually oriented terminology in research and intervention practice are missing. The paper aims toward the theoretical analysis of concepts like spirituality, spiritual intelligence and spiritual development as well as toward the description of the theoretical approaches determining the up-to-date research related to phenomena and processes in the field of spiritual development. The authors focus on cognitive-developmental, social ecology and dynamic systemic approach to the theoretical analysis of the spiritual development. Thus, the envisaged psychopedagogical intervention will be grounded on comprehensive investigation in relation to the concepts of spirituality, spiritual intelligence, and spiritual development as well as on determination of targets and methods for the development of spiritual intelligence.
Investigation of Actualization of Learning to Learn Competence in Chemistry Classes
Authors: Degutytė-Kančauskienė Aušra
Published: September 2020

The object of this study is the learning to learn competence. The purposes of this research are as follows: (1) to highlight the challenges of the actualization of learning to learn competence in science education; (2) to investigate the learning to learn competence of 16–17-year-old students of N gymnasium; (3) to provide conclusions on the learning to learn competence of students and the most relevant aspects of developing this competence in chemistry lessons. The results of a quantitative study (attended by 172 students) confirms the hypothesis that the learning to learn competence closely correlates with learning outcomes. Successful learners are more confident and are more likely to experience satisfaction and a sense of victory; on the other hand, permanent failure can cause poor self-esteem, indifference, avoidance, and aggression. Students with the best grades also have a stronger will and self-discipline to achieve their goals. They also develop this discipline more often than the learners whose learning grades are lower. The results of the survey indicate that all students have a lack of knowledge about different learning methods and the ability to choose the most appropriate ones for specific cases. One of the effective tools that may help a learner successfully comprehend at first sight a rather complicated science – chemistry – is the development of competence-based learning. For this reason, in the paper, together with the challenges of achieving the learning to learn competence, presented by the participants of the study, the possible ways of solving them are described too.

Published: September 2020

OBJECTIVES:

To describe practice patterns of intravenous (IV) antibiotic treatment duration in term neonates ≤28 days old with a urinary tract infection (UTI).

METHODS:

We performed a retrospective chart review of term neonates ≤28 days old hospitalized for UTI at 2 academic pediatric hospitals from 2012 to 2018. Neonates who were admitted to the PICU or with known preexisting renal and/or urologic anomalies or concomitant bacteremia were excluded. We examined clinical features, complications, and duration of IV antibiotic therapy. Univariate and multivariate analyses of long duration of IV antibiotics (>48 hours) were performed by using logistic regression.

RESULTS:

Of 310 neonates identified by diagnostic codes and chart review, 112 met criteria for inclusion. The median IV antibiotic duration was 49 hours (51% received IV antibiotics for >48 hours), and the median total antibiotic duration was 10 days. No demographic features or laboratory values correlated with IV antibiotic duration apart from age <7 days. The odds of long IV antibiotic duration increased if the neonate had a secondary diagnosis extending hospitalization (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] = 3.2; P = .002; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.2–8.7), subspecialty consult (aOR = 4.79; P < .001; 95% CI, 1.87–12.3), or an abnormal renal ultrasound (aOR = 2.26; P = .02; 95% CI, 1.01–5.08). Only 1 neonate experienced treatment failure.

CONCLUSIONS:

Our study revealed the recent trend toward shorter IV antibiotic courses for healthy term neonates with UTI is inclusive of infants ≤28 days at these 2 sites. Few factors associated with neonates’ initial clinical presentation appear to influence the length of IV antibiotic treatment.
Intestinal Failure–Associated Liver Disease in Neonates
Authors: Fundora Jennifer , Aucott Susan W.
Published: September 2020

Intestinal failure–associated liver disease (IFALD) is common in neonates who suffer from intestinal failure and rely on parenteral nutrition. The etiology is multifactorial, relating to the infant’s underlying cause of intestinal failure and other infant factors such as prematurity. Management of the disease includes transitioning to enteral feedings as soon as is safe for the infant. In infants who continue to rely on parenteral nutrition, alternative lipid emulsions and other medications may be used. This article reviews the epidemiology and factors that contribute to IFALD in neonates, in addition to management strategies.
Challenges of Microvillus Inclusion Disease in the NICU
Authors: Badawy Ahmed , Elfadul Manahil , Aziabi Mohammed , Ageel Hossain Ibrahim , Aqeel Ali
Published: September 2020

Mutations in the myosin 5β, syntaxin-binding protein 2, and syntaxin 3 genes lead to microvillus inclusion disease (MVID), an autosomal recessive congenital enteropathy. This rare disease is characterized by lack of microvilli on the surface of enterocytes in the small intestine, the presence of pathognomonic intracellular microvillus inclusions, and vesicular bodies within these enterocytes. This pathology leads to the characteristic intractable, life-threatening, watery diarrhea. In the more common early-onset form, affected patients present in the first few days after birth, whereas in the late-onset form, clinical manifestations appear at approximately 2 to 3 months of age. Genetic testing can confirm the diagnosis, but the infant’s medical history, clinical presentation, and small intestinal biopsy results are strongly suggestive of the diagnosis. The prevalence of MVID is thought to be higher in countries with a high degree of consanguinity. Patients with MVID cannot tolerate feedings and require continuous total parenteral nutrition. Mortality is extremely high in the early-onset type with reports of survival in patients treated with small intestinal transplantation. Medical counseling for parents of infants with MVID needs to reflect our current understanding of the various genetic forms of this disease, the feasible management, and anticipated outcomes.

Authors: Hernández Fé Fernández , González MD Efraín Sánchez
Published: September 2020

Background. As risk factor and cause of morbidity and mortality, smoking is close related with labor health. The early beginning in tobacco consumption and the high tobacco intensity consumption are determining several negative consequences over labor health and labor productivity too.

Objective. To describe the incidence of smoking over the labor health.

Matherials and methods. Was made a descriptive research about the incidence of smoking over the labor health. For that were used as theorical methods the historic – logic, the inductive – deductive and the comparative. As empiric method was used the bibliographic research.

Results. A high smoking impact over the labor health determines leasing labor capability, leasing labor productivity and leasing social redistribution potentialities in favor to dependence social sectors no associated to the labor activity.

Conclusions. Smoking saves a close relation with labor health. This risk factor act reducing it value since the epidemiologic, economic and social point o view.
Lavas or ignimbrites? Permian felsic volcanic rocks of the Tisza Mega-unit (SE Hungary) revisited: A petrographic study
Authors: Szemerédi Máté , Varga Andrea , Szepesi János , Pál-Molnár Elemér , Lukács Réka
Published: September 2020

Permian felsic volcanic rocks were encountered in petroleum exploration boreholes in SE Hungary (eastern Pannonian Basin, Tisza Mega-unit, Békés–Codru Unit) during the second half of the 20th century. They were considered to be predominantly lavas (the so-called “Battonya quartz-porphyry”) and were genetically connected to the underlying “Battonya granite.” New petrographic observations, however, showed that the presumed lavas are crystal-poor (8–20 vol%) rhyolitic ignimbrites near Battonya and resedimented pyroclastic or volcanogenic sedimentary rocks in the Tótkomlós and the Biharugra areas, respectively. The studied ignimbrites are usually massive, matrix-supported, fiamme-bearing lapilli tuffs with eutaxitic texture as a result of welding processes. Some samples lack vitroclastic matrix and show low crystal breakage, but consist of oriented, devitrified fiammes as well. Textural features suggest that the latter are high-grade rheomorphic ignimbrites.

Felsic volcanic rocks in SE Hungary belong to the Permian volcanic system of the Tisza Mega-unit; however, they show remarkable petrographic differences as compared to the other Permian felsic volcanic rocks of the mega-unit. In contrast to the crystal-poor rhyolitic ignimbrites of SE Hungary with rare biotite, the predominantly rhyodacitic–dacitic pyroclastic rocks of the Tisza Mega-unit are crystal-rich (40–45 vol%) and often contain biotite, pyroxene, and garnet. Additionally, some geochemical and geochronological differences between them were also observed by previous studies. Therefore, the Permian felsic volcanic rocks in SE Hungary might represent the most evolved, crystal-poor rhyolitic melt of a large-volume felsic (rhyodacitic–dacitic) volcanic system.

The Permian volcanic rocks of the studied area do not show any evident correlations with either the Permian felsic ignimbrites in the Finiş Nappe (Apuseni Mts, Romania), as was supposed so far, or the similar rocks in any nappe of the Codru Nappe System. Moreover, no relevant plutonic–volcanic connection was found between the studied samples and the underlying “Battonya granite.”
Thermal postbuckling analysis of FG-CNTRC doubly curved panels with elastically restrained edges using Reddy's higher order shear deformation theory
Authors: Tung Hoang Van , Kien Nguyen Dinh , Trang Le Thi Nhu
Published: September 2020

For the first time, postbuckling behavior of thick doubly curved panels made of carbon nanotube reinforced composite (CNTRC), under preexisting external pressure and subjected to uniform temperature rise is analyzed in this paper. Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are reinforced into matrix through functionally graded (FG) distribution patterns, and effective properties of CNTRC are determined according to extended rule of mixture. Formulations are based on a higher order shear deformation theory including Von Karman-Donnell nonlinearity, initial geometrical imperfection and elasticity of tangential constraints of boundary edges. Analytical solutions are assumed to satisfy simply supported boundary conditions and Galerkin method is used to obtain nonlinear load-deflection relation. Taking into account temperature dependence of material properties, postbuckling temperature-deflection paths are traced through an iteration process. The effects of preexisting external pressure, CNT volume fraction, tangential edge constraints, initial geometrical imperfection and curvature ratios on thermal postbuckling behavior of CNTRC doubly curved panels are analyzed through numerical examples. The study reveals that thermally loaded panels experiences a quasi-bifurcation response due to the presence of preexisting external pressure. For the most part, perfect panels are deflected toward convex side at the onset of undergoing thermal load. Particularly, imperfect panels may exhibit a bifurcation type buckling response when imperfection size satisfy a special condition.
Evaluation of Resorption and Osseointegration of Autogenous Bone Ring Grafting in Vertical Bone Defect With Simultaneous Implant Placement in Dogs

Published: September 2020

The aim of this research was to evaluate the resorption and osseointegration of an autogenous bone ring, which was grafted in a local vertical alveolar defect with simultaneous implant placement. Six Beagle dogs were enrolled in the study; their 4 nonadjacent mandibular premolars were extracted, and the buccal plate was removed to create bone defects in 2 of the 4 sites. Three months after extraction, Straumann implants (Ø 3.3 mm, length of 8 mm) were placed in the bone defect sites with simultaneous autogenous bone ring grafting and in the conventional extraction sites. After a 3-month healing period and a 3-month loading period, the animals were euthanized. The harvested samples were analyzed using micro-computed tomography (CT) scanning and histological analysis. From the micro-CT measurements, the average vertical bone resorption of the bone ring was 0.23 ± 0.03 mm, which was not significantly different from that around the conventional implant, 0.24 ± 0.12 mm (P > .05). The ratio of the bone volume to the total volume of the bone ring group was 91.11 ± 0.02, which was higher than that of the control group, 88.38 ± 2.34 (P < .05). From the hard tissue section, the bone rings developed fine osseointegration with the implants and the base alveolar bone. The results suggest autogenous bone ring grafting with simultaneous implant placement can survive in a local vertical bone defect with little bone resorption and good osseointegration in dogs with strict management. A bone ring graft must be compared with guided bone regeneration, and a larger and longer observation must be confirmed in clinical patients.

Orbital and Intracranial Complication Resulting from Acute Rhinosinusitis: Case Report
Authors: Verde Raquel Crisostomo Lima , Lessa Bruno Farias , de Lima Clara Mônica Figueiredo , Lessa Marcus Miranda , Lessa Helio Andrade , de Souza Luana Alves
Published: September 2020

Introduction: Among the rhinosinusitis complications, the orbital are the most frequent ones, occurring mostly in the youngsters and children. Simultaneous complications involving the intracranial orbit and space are extremely rare, but they must be severely treated for they have a high rate of morbidity and mortality.

Case report: In this work, the authors report a case of a patient who appeared to have preseptal cellulites and epidural abscess, in the form of simultaneous complications of an acute rhinosinusitis. In the patient of this case, choice was made for a clinic treatment associated with a nasosinusal endoscopic surgery and neurosurgical drainage of the intracranial abscess. CT was enough to achieve the diagnosis of this case.

Final commentaries: However, it is recommended that, in cases where patients have rhinosinusitis complications, an extensive intracranial investigation needs to be deepened even when this is not so evident in the beginning. Given the polymicrobial nature of these infections, an aggressive culture-guided antibiotic therapy and a multidisciplinary follow-up significantly increase the likelihood of success.

Análisis y examen de modelos de explicación del proceso de formulación de políticas: un enfoque para el paradigma posmodernismo
Authors: Ebrahimi Motahar , Pourkiani Masoud , Shariat Hossein , Sayadi Saeed , Pour Rashidi Rostam
Published: September 2020

La posmodernidad ha cruzado las fronteras del arte y la filosofía muy rápidamente y al desafiar los fundamentos filosóficos de las ciencias sociales, ejerce una gran influencia en el dominio de la teorización de estos campos. En consecuencia, la ciencia de la formulación de políticas en general, y las teorías de formación de políticas en particular, no han permanecido inmunes a las doctrinas posmodernas. Dicho esto, el objetivo del presente ensayo es el análisis y examen de los modelos de explicación del proceso de formulación de políticas basados ​​en un enfoque del paradigma posmodernista. Con este fin, se analizan los problemas de la racionalidad en la posmodernidad, la racionalidad en la formulación de políticas, y los enfoques que siguen varios tipos de racionalidad. Se esbozan los principales modelos de explicación del proceso de formulación de políticas que han llamado mucho la atención de los pensadores. Los estudios sugieren que nociones tales como la crítica de la objetividad, la racionalidad que se escapa, el superficialismo y la negación de origen y nociones como el mejoramiento, el desarrollo y la justicia, se encuentran entre las características del paradigma posmoderno que influyen en las ideas de formación de políticas. La influencia de las nociones antes mencionadas en el proceso de formulación de políticas debe considerarse como un recordatorio de temas como el modelo caótico en la formulación de políticas, los centros de poder, los grupos de presión, el mecanismo para incluir los temas marginales e insignificantes en la agenda, la falta de modelos universales y insistencia en modelos nacionales de desarrollo y toma de decisiones públicas, pluralismo y participación.
Influence of re-cementation on the retention of CAD/CAM zirconia copings over short titanium and zirconia abutments
Authors: TÜRKER Nurullah , ÖZARSLAN Mehmet Mustafa
Published: September 2020

Objective: The aim of this study was to comparatively evaluate the effects of re-cementation on the retention of zirconia copings, which were cemented to short titanium and zirconia abutments with self-adhesive resin cement. Materials and Method: Twelve titanium (Nucleoss T4 implants, NucleOSS T4 flat abutment, İzmir, Turkey) and 12 zirconia abutments (Zirkonzahn, Zirkonzahn GmbH, Bruneck, Italy) were used in this in vitro study. The titanium abutments were shortened to 3 mm and embedded in acrylic by fixing them with analogues. The zirconia abutments and copings were produced by scanning the abutments using the computer-aided design and manufacturing (CAD/CAM) method. All zirconia copings were cemented to the titanium and zirconia abutments with self-adhesive resin cement. Samples were subjected to a pull-out test in a universal testing device, and the bond strength values were recorded. Cement residues on the abutments and copings were removed with a handpiece that had a round head carbon steel bur, and an explorer. The copings were then re-cemented and retested using the pull-out test, and the strength values were recorded. Descriptive statistics were applied to the data, and the mean and standard deviation values were calculated. Bonferroni corrections with pairwise comparisons were used to compare the group and test effect at each level. P<0.01 was considered as statistically significant. Results: The effect of the pre-test and end-test on bond strength (p<0.001), the group effect on titanium and zirconia (p<0.001) and the test-group interaction effect (p<0.001) were all found to be statistically significant. A significant difference was observed between the titanium and zirconia samples in terms of bond strength when the pre-test and end-tests were compared (titanium: p<0.05, zirconia: p<0.001). The end-test bond strength values were significantly lower than the pre-test bond strength values. Additionally, there was a significant difference between the titanium and zirconia samples in terms of bond strength change on comparison of the pre-test and the end-test. Decrease in bond strength values was higher in the zirconia samples (p<0.001). Conclusion: Re-cementation may adversely affect the bond strength of single-unit restorations on short abutments. In the case of re-cementation, a higher retention loss may occur in zirconia abutments than in titanium abutments.

Ağrı algısı, hem lokal anestezi sonrası hem de diş çekimi sonrasında Wong-Baker (W-B) skalası ile kaydedildi. Bulgular: “Anlat-göster-uygula” ve “3D video gözlük” grupları karşılaştırıldığında nabız ve MCDAS skala değerleri bakımından aralarında anlamlı farklılık bulunmadı. Tüm zamanlarda yapılan ölçümlerde “3D video gözlük” grubunun saturasyon değerleri, “Anlat-göster-uygula” grubuna göre anlamlı derecede daha düşük bulundu. “3D video gözlük” grubunda diş çekimden sonra kaydedilen W-B değerlerinin “Anlat-göster-uygula” grubuna göre anlamlı derecede düşük olduğu görüldü. “3D video gözlük” grubunda diş çekiminden sonra ölçülen W-B değerinin lokal anestezi sonrasındaki değere göre düşük olduğu gözlendi. Sonuç: Çocuklarda diş çekimi sırasında “3D video gözlük” kullanımının anksiyete değerlerinde beklenen azalmayı sağlamadığı; ağrı algısını ise başarılı bir biçimde azalttığı görülmüştür.

Authors: Brito-Oliveira Niltânia , Ramos Dos Santos Arlete , Ramos dos Santos Igor Tairone
Published: September 2020

This article is a product of an ongoing research entitled: “The educational public policies of the Articulated Action Plan-PAR in municipalities of Bahia”. It focuses on Vitória da Conquista, Ilhéus and Itabuna. We describe the results of this study concerning the reality of the quilombola 4 school education from a field 5 perspective, that of the quilombola peasant. We followed the dialectical historical materialism method. The results point to contradictions between what the law provides in the specific legislations and the materiality of this population’s particularities. We conclude that the specific mode of production of the quilombola countryside people legitimizes a social practice of coping with capital through the peasantry. To better explain it, we have used the emerging category Quilombola peasant.
Students’ Perspectives Concerning Intercultural Competence Development during their Academic Exchange Period
Authors: André das Dores Ricardo Miguel
Published: September 2020

In this case study with a qualitative approach we aim to analyze perspectives of students on the intercultural competence and its development during their academic exchange period abroad. The increasingly competitive and globalized labor market requires knowledgeable professionals from an intercultural point of view. The techniques to collect data were semi-structured interviews and participant observation. Data analysis procedures followed content analysis. The results suggest that the perception of cultural differences increases in students, although the development and improvement of institutional policies of universities is necessary for the preparation of strategies that promote the development of said competences. Conclusions point towards the increased relevance that intercultural competence represents on Higher Education nowadays and on future professionals.
Dificultades de la escritura y desaprovechamiento de su potencial epistémico en estudiantes de posgrado
Authors: Giraldo-Giraldo Camilo
Published: September 2020

Este artículo de investigación se propone identificar e interpretar las percepciones que tienen estudiantes de posgrado sobre las dificultades en su producción textual y verificar si tanto instituciones como alumnos desaprovechan el potencial epistémico de la escritura (Carlino, 2004, 2013; Cassany y Morales, 2009; Cruz, 2015; Giraldo, 2015, Hernández, 2009; Narvaja, 2009; Ochoa y Cueva, 2017; Ong, 1994; Scardamalia y Bereiter, 1992; Zárate, 2017).  El trabajo se realizó en cuatro universidades de Manizales, Colombia. Se trata de un estudio exploratorio de tipo descriptivo para el cual se aplicó una encuesta con 5 preguntas a 80 estudiantes de maestrías y doctorados y a 20 directores de posgrado; además, se hizo entrevista semiestructurada a estos participantes. Se encontró que el 90 % de los encuestados admite que tiene dificultades para escribir y estas son reiterativas en comparación con otros estudios. Aunque también se halló que el 84% dijo conocer las normas de la escritura académica, esto no ha de interpretarse como contradictorio con el resultado anterior, sino como un indicativo de que el conocimiento de los criterios de la escritura científica no es garantía de su aplicación. Así, estudiantes e instituciones deberían procurar, sobre todo, el ejercicio dirigido de la escritura científica. Otro de los hallazgos centrales para este estudio es que el 97 % de los estudiantes manifestó que desconoce la práctica de la escritura con el propósito de aprovechar su potencial epistémico. Se concluye que estudiantes e instituciones generalmente desaprovechan la escritura como instrumento para fortalecer y generar conocimiento.

Сущность информационной власти стейкхолдеров в современных экономических условиях
Authors: Кравец Максим Александрович , Емельянова Ольга Яковлевна , Шершень Инга Владимировна
Published: September 2020

Цель: формирование модели информационной власти стейкхолдеров, включающей не только сильные, но и слабые связи предприятия со стейкхолдерами. Обсуждение: по мнению авторов, в условиях нестабильной и непредсказуемой внешней среды коммуникационные связи предприятия должны включать не только сильные связи (обладающие очевидной информационной властью), но и пул (совокупность различных) слабых связей, которые дополняя друг друга, обладают также существенной информационной властью. Управление коммуникациями со стейкхолдерами должно включать в себя управление коммуникационным разнообразием предприятия, которое может быть оценено количественно. Результаты: выделены составляющие информационной власти стейкхолдеров; обоснована необходимость расширения управления связями до формирования необходимого коммуникационного разнообразия, включающего комплекс связей не только с ключевыми, но и другими стейкхолдерами; сформирована методологическая основа для расчета индекса коммуникационного разнообразия предприятия.
Discourse marker in descriptive essays: A study on junior high school students
Authors: WAHİD Abdul , SUYİTNO Imam , SUYONO Suyono , - Martutik
Published: September 2020

This study aims to determine the use of discourse markers (DM) in the descriptive essay text of students in high school. This study uses a qualitative approach that is classified as a case study. Data in the form of students' descriptive essays were analyzed using descriptive analysis. The essay writing instrument has a validity value of 95% and a reliability value () of 0.8. Participants were 96 grade IX students in Balikpapan, Indonesia, aged between 14-15 years. The purposive sampling method is used to select participants. The participants in this school were chosen because they were accustomed to receiving assignments in writing essay descriptions by their teachers. The results of this study indicate that (1) distance order is the dominant type of DM that is elaborately utilized, followed by elaboration, temporal, contrast, comparison, reason, causal, conclusions, and examples in participants' description essays, (2) class categories of types such as elaboration, comparison, and contrast have not shown varied use of participants, (3) students' DM usage skills are inadequate because of their inability to distribute DM primarily from coordinating conjunctions to linguistic units appropriately, and the existence of multifunctional DM avoidance strategies. The findings of this study become an evaluation material in teaching writing to identify the weaknesses and strengths of the use of discourse markers of high school students. The researcher recommends for the next study to look more closely at the development of thoughts and skills in the use of DM in essay writing.

Investigating the Dark Figure of COVID-19 Cases in Austria: Borrowing From the Decode Genetics Study in Iceland
Authors: Hirk Rainer , Kastner Gregor , Vana Laura
Published: September 2020

The number of undetected cases of SARS-CoV-2 infections is expected to be a multipleof the reported figures mainly due to the high ratio of asymptomatic infections and tolimited availability of trustworthy testing resources. Relying on the deCODE study inIceland, which offers large scale testing among the general population, we investigate themagnitude and uncertainty of the number of undetected cases COVID-19 cases in Austria.We formulate several scenarios relying on data on the number of COVID-19 cases whichhave been hospitalized, in intensive care, as well as on the number of deaths and positivetests in Iceland and Austria. We employ frequentist and Bayesian methods for estimatingthe dark figure in Austria based on the hypothesized scenarios and for accounting for theuncertainty surrounding this figure.Using data available on April 1, 2020, our study contains two main findings: First, wefind the estimated number of infections to be on average around 8.35 times higher thanthe recorded number of infections. Second, the width of the uncertainty bounds associatedwith this figure depends highly on the statistical method employed. At a 95% level, lowerbounds range from 3.96 to 6.83 and upper bounds range from 9.82 to 12.61. Overall, ourfindings confirm the need for systematic tests in the general population of Austria.
