Educación, clase social, militancia política: divergencias en torno a la sexualidad entre presas comunistas y Carlota O´Neill en el primer franquismo
Authors: Osborne Raquel
Published: February 2025

El grueso de las presas políticas del franquismo que nos han dejado testimonio se distanció de las presas comunes, prostitutas en su mayoría, por su rechazo de las sexualidades no normativizadas. Su postura, no obstante, no fue unitaria. En este artículo nos proponemos profundizar en las razones de la divergencia entre las propias presas comunistas, de una parte, de las que se desmarca la presa política y escritora republicana Carlota O´Neill. Sus posiciones ilustran una postura mucho más liberal en lo sexual. Remitirnos biográficamente a su figura nos permite, además, reivindicarla como una de las grandes republicanas exiliadas en un contexto de recuperación de la memoria histórica.

La educación física y la actividad gimnásticodeportiva de las mujeres a partir de la bibliografía especializada del siglo XIX
Authors: Torrebadella-Flix Xavier
Published: February 2025

El estudio parte de un repertorio bibliográfico de obras publicadas en España sobre la educación física y las actividades gimnástico-deportivas en torno a las mujeres en el período decimonónico. Se destacan las principales obras, su impacto y la influencia en los diferentes discursos doctrinales que debatieron la incorporación de las mujeres en las prácticas gimnásticas y deportivas del siglo XIX. Esta selección bibliográfica colabora a esclarecer la evolución histórica de la educación física y el deporte, a legitimar su proceso de institucionalización y, asimismo, coadyuva a una mejor interpretación de los estudios históricos de las mujeres en la construcción social del feminismo en la España decimonónica.

Las diferentes manifestaciones del patronazgo femenino en el cristianismo primitivo
Authors: Pedregal Rodríguez Amparo
Published: February 2025

El sistema de patronazgo constituye un medio importante de intercambio en las sociedades asimétricamente constituidas, como la grecorromana antigua. La relación de desigualdad que sanciona permite también entender mejor el discurso y desarrollo de las religiones. En el Cristianismo primitivo, describe el vínculo entre la divinidad —patronus— y los devotos —clientes—. Las mujeres participan de esta práctica, como vía para emular el papel benefactor de Cristo. Asimismo, su protagonismo en las diversas manifestaciones del patronazgo es imprescindible para entender la difusión y afianzamiento de las comunidades cristianas en los núcleos urbanos del Imperio romano, desde el s. I d.e.

Una mujer y su tiempo: María de la O Lejárraga de Martínez Sierra
Authors: Capel Martínez Rosa M.ª
Published: February 2025

María Lejárraga García de Martínez Sierra es una de las personalidades femeninas más destacadas  de la España del siglo XX. Nacida con la Restauración,  pudo vivir los avances de las mujeres en el primer tercio de la centuria e idear una sociedad nueva en que socialismo y  feminismo  alumbraran  un  mundo  igualitario  y  justo.  Tuvo  ocasión  de  colaborar  en  ese empeño  durante  la II República,  pero  al fin,  la Guerra  Civil  frustró  sus  anhelos  y la llevó lejos de esa patria que había querido transformar. El presente trabajo se acerca a la figura de María  como  protagonista  activa  del  proceso  emancipador  de las  españolas  entre  1900  y 1936,  con  especial  atención  a  su  presencia  dentro  del  feminismo  y  en  la  política.  En  este ámbito, se hace una aproximación al apoyo que recibiera de las mujeres, que votaron a nivel nacional  por  vez  primera  en las elecciones  de 1933,  cuando  salió  diputada  por  Granada.
Madres sabias, musas y monjas cantoras: transmisión musical y magisterio femenino en la Edad Media
Authors: Lorenzo Arribas Josemi
Published: February 2025

Las madres nos han ido socializando desde la primera infancia al son de canturreos; la mitología recoge poderosos referentes simbólicos de mujeres transmisoras del arte musical. La música, en realidad, ha sido una práctica eminentemente femenina en las sociedades tradicionales, hasta que su academización (sinónimo siempre de patriarcalización) relegó a las mujeres de su ejercicio. No obstante, durante el Antiguo Régimen se pueden reconstruir varias líneas de transmisión musical en el entremujeres. De los distintos ámbitos en que éste se manifiesta voy a centrarme en el monástico, especialmente en la figura de la cantora, oficio que comprendía tanto la interpretación de la música como su magisterio.
Las matronas y la transmisión de saberes científicos sobre el parto en la España del S. XIX
Authors: Ortiz Gómez Teresa
Published: February 2025

Las matronas tuvieron un papel como transmisoras de saberes técnicos sobre el parto que ha sido ignorado por la historiografía obstétrica y profesional. A través de fuentes de archivo, legislativas, prensa profesional y libros sobre partos (entre ellos el primero de autoría femenina publicado en España), se estudian los cambios en la formación académica de las matronas a lo largo del siglo XIX y las iniciativas docentes que varias de ellas protagonizaron a partir de 1870. Se recuperan voces de matronas que escribieron para formar a otras y se analizan sus ideas sobre la mujer, la profesión y la ciencia obstétrica, así como las alianzas que establecieron con profesionales médicos para poder llevar a cabo sus objetivos.
El particular feminismo de John Stuart Mill: la esclavitud femenina
Authors: Del Olmo Rodríguez M.ª Fátima
Published: February 2025

El filósofo y economista John Stuart Mill (1806-1873) dedicó parte de su obra a la problemática de la mujer, abogando por su igualdad y libertad en condiciones equiparables al hombre. Para combatir lo que Mill consideraba un freno al progreso de la humanidad, publicó en 1869 su emblemática obra "feminista": La Esclavitud Femenina. En ella recogió propuestas igualitaristas de carácter innovador (igualdad y libertad, mejora en la educación, sufragio, revisión de la legislación matrimonial, ...) y críticas demoledoras a la situación vigente, pero Mill también sucumbió a algunos elementos conservadores típicamente victorianos. De la trayectoria "feminista" de este autor, no podemos excluir la colaboración intelectual y vital con su esposa Harriet Taylor.
La sabiduría de las mujeres: magia y medicina
Authors: Camps Gaset Montserrat
Published: February 2025

El artículo analiza la constante intersección entre magia y medicina en la sabiduría de las mujeres de la Grecia antigua. Este tipo de conocimiento se enmarca dentro de la sabiduría popular y está presente ya en la mitología con personajes como Circe, Medea o Pasífae. Son mujeres que pertenecen a la familia de Helios y están más cerca del mundo divino que del humano, hechiceras que conocen filtros mágicos y remedios curativos. Estas actividades femeninas quedan fuera de la religión ciudadana y su radio de acción se limita a familia y conocidos, confinado al ámbito doméstico. Por otro lado, los servicios más solicitados a las hechiceras debían ser los filtros de amor pero también todo lo relacionado con el parto y la salud femenina.
Tiempo de mujeres, tiempo de hombres: género, ocio y trabajo en Grecia antigua
Authors: Mirón Pérez M.ª Dolores
Published: February 2025

Los papeles de género vigentes en Grecia antigua atribuían no sólo diferentes funciones y espacios a mujeres y hombres, sino también distintos usos y conceptos del tiempo. Mientras que para los hombres el tiempo se divide claramente en trabajo y ocio, que permite su actividad política -en suma, su control y dirección de los asuntos públicos y privados-; para as mujeres el tiempo aparece como un continuo de trabajo -sobre todo, textil-, relacionado con su función reproductora, en el que el ocio no sólo no sería necesario, sino que sería un obstáculo para el cumplimiento correcto del papel de género femenino. Así, el tiempo de los hombres sería fundamentalmente político (cultural), pues estaría regido por los ritmos ciudadanos, mientras que el de las mujeres sería básicamente natural, en tanto es el ciclo reproductivo el que domina su vida.
Recuperar y repensar la memoria de las mujeres sobre la experiencia sindical
Authors: Villar Conchi G.
Published: February 2025

Dentro del marco de un proyecto de creación de un fondo oral, se plantea en este texto la necesidad de abordar la problemática de la militancia sindical de las mujeres desde un análisis que supere los estereotipos a los que la historiografia ha reducido tradicionalmente la relación de las mujeres con el sindicalismo y la política. En la primera parte se sintetizan las bases del proyecto archivístico de Fundación Cipriano García - Archivo Histórico de la Comisión Obrera Nacional de Cataluña (AHCONC) de constitución de un fondo oral sobre la memoria del sindicalismo. En la segunda, desde su experiencia como entrevistadora e historiadora, la autora esboza algunas pautas interpretativas sobre la participación de las mujeres en el movimiento sindical. Por último se presenta el perfil biográfico de una de las entrevistadas, Anna Bosch i Pareras así como sus propias reflexiones en torno a la validez del método biográfico como instrumento metodológico para la reconstrucción e interpretación de la memoria sobre la militancia sindical y política de las mujeres.

Turismo, ¿para quién?: Pequeñas empresarias de las costas goanesas frente a la explosión turística
Authors: García Armand Asun
Published: February 2025

El estado indio de Goa -colonia portuguesa hasta 1961-, situado a 600 Km al sur de Mumbay, a orillas del Índico, ha experimentado un gran desarrollo turístico desde la década de 1970, en que se convirtió en el Eldorado de la generación hippy. En torno a esta sociedad de viajeros se desarrolló una industria turística rudimentaria, de la que la población local pudo beneficiarse económicamente. Entre los estratos sociales más desfavorecidos, un contingente importante de mujeres emprendió distintas actividades turísticas, siendo la del comercio una de las preferidas, convirtiéndose en verdaderas empresarias, por estar al frente de una empresa, "unidad económica de producción de bienes y servicios" (Diccionario Enciclopédico Larousse). El carácter exodomiciliario de su trabajo, así como los beneficios obtenidos repercutió en las relaciones y roles de género intra- familiares, y con el entorno social inmediato. A partir del final de la década de 1980 Goa ha pasado paulatinamente a manos de los promotores turísticos de tipo capitalista y se ha convertido hasta 2002 en una especie de "Riviera" india. El presente artículo se propone examinar las repercusiones que la llegada de este tipo de turismo ha tenido sobre las actividades de las mujeres empresarias a pequeña escala, y confrontarlo con el discurso del lobby turístico, que pretende que el desarrollo turístico de los países del "Tercer Mundo" contribuye al crecimiento económico y al bienestar general, al tiempo que ofrece un amplio abanico de posibilidades laborales para la población local.Con este fin hemos observado la trayectoria de seis pequeñas empresarias entre 1989 y 2002 y las hemos confrontado con el discurso del lobby turístico y con nuestras hipótesis. Estas se distancian del citado discurso, ya que pretendemos que precisamente el turismo agran escala tiene un efecto de alienación laboral para aquellas personas con pocas calificaciones laborales y know-how rudimentario y carencia de posibilidades inversoras a gran escala.
Estudiar para trabajar: la participación de las mujeres en los proyectos económicos de Sanromá y Díaz de Rábago
Authors: Martínez Rodríguez Susana
Published: February 2025

En este trabajo se presentan las ideas de los economistas españoles de la segunda mitad del XIX sobre la "cuestión femenina". Joaquín Sanromá y Joaquín Díaz de Rábago criticaban la explotación de las mujeres en las fábricas, pero no la conveniencia de que aportase un jornal a la economía familiar. También defienden una mayor instrucción para las jóvenes, particularmente en la formación profesional.
Using a chatbot with generative artificial intelligence in teaching translation to students in a non-linguistic university in China
Authors: Liu Qiqi
Published: February 2025

The research aims to substantiate the feasibility of using chatbots with generative artificial intelligence in teaching translation to students in a non-linguistic university in China. The article analyzes the possibilities of optimizing the process of teaching Chinese students translation with the help of chatbots. The scientific novelty of the research lies in describing the methodological potential of using chatbots in translation practice, as well as in developing an algorithm for teaching students in a non-linguistic university in China translation based on a chatbot with generative artificial intelligence. The research found that chatbots offer functions for creating a glossary of terms, quickly searching for collocations, checking the spelling, punctuation, grammar and style of the translated text, as well as evaluating the translated text according to certain criteria. A detailed description of the training algorithm consisting of three stages and nine steps was proposed.
The problem of conveying realities in the translation of a poetic text from Russian into Romance languages
Authors: Sveshnikova Marina Ilinichna , Sernova Elena Igorevna
Published: February 2025

The aim of the research is to identify translation analogues in other languages for linguistic and cultural realities in a poetic fairy tale in Russian, the search for which for the translation of folklore-type works can be problematic in other cultural fields. In author's fairy tales, many phenomena of folk tradition, which later became firmly embedded in the national cultural fund, were transformed into vivid images and concepts, analogues of which are absent in other languages, therefore, complete equivalents are impossible. The scientific novelty lies in the fact that when comparing the text of P. Ershov's poetic fairy tale "The Little Humpbacked Horse" in Russian and its translations into other languages (in our case, French and Spanish), different approaches were revealed in reflecting the historical context, background knowledge, and in the selection of equivalents and analogues to convey this or that reality of Russian culture. As a result of the analysis of translations of a poetic fairy tale into French and Spanish, significant discrepancies were noted in the texts when conveying Russian cultural realities, which may distort the overall context of the original work when it is perceived by a foreign reader.
The trickster in the paradigm of the photographic discourse of English-language prose of the second half of the 19th – early 21st century
Authors: Poluektova Tatyana Anatolievna
Published: February 2025

The aim of the study is to demonstrate the way the trickster features in the images of photographers created by English-speaking writers of the second half of the 19th century and the early 21st century were changing. The author of the article implements a historical and literary review that allows capturing the prerequisites for the formation of trickster traits in the first images of photographer characters as well as the laws of their further development. The originality of the research lies in the fact that the article examines the images of trickster photographers for the first time in Russian literary criticism and for the first time presents the influence of the cultural-aesthetic paradigm on the formation of their representative features. Thus, the trickster features were traced in the image of a Victorian era photographer in the story by W. Rhodes “Phases in the Life of John Pollexfen” (1876). The character, striving for fame and well-being, resorts to a terrible and inhuman experiment coordinated with the victim through a scientific invention – color photography. The novel “The Sorrows of an American” (2008) by a modern American writer Siri Hustvedt presents the image of a digital-age voyeur photographer, in whose hands collage photographs become a means of manipulation, provocation and banter. His intention is aimed at creating the world of simulacra as one of the basic settings of the postmodern paradigm. The research findings made it possible to identify the specifics of trickster traits in photographer characters belonging to different eras. The ambivalence of the characters’ nature, combining in itself the destructiveness and creativity at the same time, was identified as the key idiosyncrasy.
Difficulties in understanding and translating homoacronyms in English-language space discourse
Authors: Ibragimova Karine Grachievna
Published: February 2025

The aim of the study is to reveal the essence of the homoacronyms nominations in the modern English-language space discourse from the point of view of translation difficulties. The article examines space terminology represented by acronyms and homoacronyms functioning in the space discourse, reveals the difficulties of their understanding and translation into Russian. Considerable attention is paid to the problem of translating the figurative component of homoacronyms, on which the phenomenon of language play is built. The scientific originality of the research lies in the fact that for the first time homoacronyms have been identified in the space discourse, which is characterized by dynamic development and rapid emergence of new concepts requiring nomination and translation. As a result of the study, it is proven that the linguistic units in question are complex nominations combining the features of terms and neologisms, in most cases, they can be viewed as a specific type of acronyms – homoacronyms. It has been found that homoacronyms allow for a more concise and figurative expression of complex concepts, and their expressiveness determines the use of language play as a means of artistic expression. Consequently, the complexity of understanding and translating acronyms and the need for an individual approach to each specific case depend on these factors.
The anthropocentric aspect of the asymmetry of linguistic signs in advertising discourse
Authors: Terskikh Tatiana Filippovna
Published: February 2025

The article is devoted to the description of advertising texts and the role of the asymmetry of linguistic signs in the performance of the functions of the advertising text. In the considered samples of advertising discourse, we analyzed such linguistic phenomena as polysemy, phraseological units, homonymy and synonymy. The purpose of the study is to substantiate the productivity of the impact of the asymmetry of linguistic signs on the realization of the communicative effect in advertising products. The scientific novelty of the work lies in the use of a functional and pragmatic approach to the study of language functioning within the framework of advertising communication, which made it possible to identify the specifics of the advertising language. The methods of actualizing the asymmetry of linguistic signs have been introduced into scientific use. The peculiarities of the use of phraseological units, polysemy, homonymy, synonymy in the advertising sphere of a specific product category in the pragmalinguistic aspect are revealed. For the first time, the paper analyzes the advertising text from the standpoint of pragmatic and semiotic approaches. As a result, the methods of actualizing asymmetry were identified: the use of linguistic context, creolization of the text, appeal to stereotypes, reference to relevant signs and facts of reality; the influence of linguistic signs on successful or unsuccessful self-presentation of advertising was proved: both advantages and disadvantages of using the asymmetry of linguistic signs in advertising texts were noted.
Phraseological phenomenon and twists and turns of semantics: Structural stability and semantic opacity (based on the Russian and French languages)
Authors: Sedykh Arkadiy Petrovich , Pronina Elena Vyacheslavovna , Avilova Maria Sergeyevna
Published: February 2025

The aim of the study is to identify the specifics of the phraseologization process taking into account the structural and semantic categories of “stability” and “opacity” based on the material of the Russian and French languages. The scientific novelty of the work consists in constructing a universal linguo-semiological model for describing phraseological fusions to clarify the conceptual apparatus and more clearly semantic structuring the terminology of phraseological disciplines, language theory and communication theory. The central point of the study is the attitude to language as an open, actively developing system of semiotic supports and guidelines aimed at optimizing phraseological communication with other individuals, which cannot be carried out without involving emotions, memory, additional cognitive efforts, will and imagination. An important element is the structural and semantic approach to the analysis of syntactic stability and semantic opacity of phraseological units in the mainstream of the interpretative and semiological approach. The obtained data make it possible to identify a number of important mechanisms of phraseological narrative, leading to dialogicity and synergy between representatives of various sciences and disciplines, necessary for the construction and implementation of models of adequate empathic communication associated with the dynamics of the development of interaction of linguo-semiotic and linguocultural parameters of the speech act, on the path to creating a new metaphraseological axiology both in theory and in practice, not only of particular phraseologies, but also of general linguistics.

Published: February 2025

Introducción. El trauma es un problema de salud pública importante a nivel mundial. En Colombia, Cali es la ciudad más violenta, lo que contribuye significativamente a la mortalidad relacionada con el trauma. El objetivo de este estudio fue evaluar los servicios de emergencias para determinar las condiciones y recursos disponibles para el manejo del paciente politraumatizado.
Métodos. Se realizó un estudio observacional, transversal y multicéntrico en nueve hospitales públicos de mediana o baja complejidad en Cali, Colombia. Los resultados se compararon con los estándares de la Sociedad Panamericana de Trauma (SPT). Se utilizó un análisis univariado para examinar el comportamiento y la distribución de los datos.
Resultados. De los hospitales encuestados, 66,6 % eran nivel I y 33,3 % nivel II. El cumplimiento mínimo según la SPT fue del 73 % para nivel I y del 77,5 % para nivel II. El 50 % de los hospitales de nivel I contaba con collar cervical y el 75 % contaba con insumos para el manejo básico de la vía aérea, pero solo un tercio disponía de medicamentos para la secuencia de inducción rápida. Dos tercios de los hospitales de nivel II disponían de hemocomponentes. Ninguno de los hospitales estaba equipado con torniquetes, inmovilizadores pélvicos o disponibilidad inmediata de ultrasonografía. El tiempo promedio de traslado a centros de mayor complejidad fue de 30,8 minutos desde los hospitales de nivel I y de 34,3 minutos desde los de nivel II.
Conclusiones. Los recursos para el manejo del trauma en los hospitales de complejidad mediana y baja no cumplían con los estándares de la SPT. Esto resalta la necesidad de políticas de salud pública que mejoren la atención del trauma mediante la provisión de los suministros esenciales, programas de capacitación integral y una red de atención prehospitalaria optimizada.
Formation of special competencies in professional junior bachelor’s in laboratory diagnostics under blended learning conditions
Authors: Meniv Nataliia , Rizun Hanna , Viniarska Mariya , Liubinska Orysia
Published: February 2025

In the article, based on theoretical sources and practical experience, the peculiarities of forming special competencies in professional junior bachelor’s degree students in laboratory diagnostics are revealed using the example of studying educational components “Microbiology with fundamentals of immunology and microbiological research techniques” and “Medical Biology” in the conditions of blended learning. Legal documents that regulate the organization of the educational process in the conditions of martial law are analyzed. It is shown that blended learning is one of the forms of organizing education and is directly related to the distance format of organizing the educational process. It is noted that the organization of the educational process in the conditions of blended learning is characterized by certain features that affect the nature and types of pedagogical interaction of all participants in the educational process. The functions of teachers, which were determined precisely in the conditions of blended learning (coordination, correction, counseling, management), are distinguished and characterized, showing the interaction and interdependence of activities of the teacher and students.
The authors analyzed simulation learning and the flipped classroom methodology as alternative forms of forming special competencies in professional junior bachelor’s degree students in laboratory diagnostics in the conditions of blended learning. The principles of blended learning (sequence, visibility, practical application, continuity) are identified and characterized. The axiological principles of organizing blended learning (responsibility, mutual trust and respect, respect for each other’s time, integrity) are emphasized, and the peculiarities of their manifestation in teachers, students, and educational institution management are outlined. It is stressed that the effectiveness of learning depends on the level of independence of students, maximum access to educational and methodological materials, the formation of self-organization and self-control.
Keywords: blended learning, laboratory diagnostics, flipped classroom, simulation learning, axiological principles.
Moving Beyond Cross-Language Transfer in a Single Modality: The Transfer Integration Hypothesis
Authors: Shen Ye
Published: February 2025

Over the past decades, theories of cross-language transfer have widely focused on the proficiency required to transfer a single linguistic modality in one language to that same linguistic modality in another language (e.g., first-language reading to second/foreign-language reading). To move beyond cross-language transfer in a single modality, a new theory, the transfer integration hypothesis proposes that reading and writing are related across learners’ first and second languages. To test the transfer integration hypothesis, this systematic qualitative review synthesizes the findings of peer-reviewed studies on the reading-writing connections across languages. Evidence of cross-language reading-writing connections to support the transfer integration hypothesis was found with much variability resulting from literacy and linguistic factors. These factors include multilinguals’ language experience and grade level, reading and writing measures, language exposure, motivation, language proficiency, and language structure similarities and distance.
Preserving Indigenous Heritage: A Strategic Roadmap for Community Based Cultural Development
Authors: Candelario-Aplaon Zussette
Published: February 2025

The Philippines is home to a diverse array of indigenous people, with unique languages, cultures, and traditions. Despite their significant contribution to the country’s heritage and ecological balance, these communities often face marginalization and discrimination. They are among the poorest sectors of the population, illiterate, most vulnerable to extreme weather, and have limited access to basic services. To help build a sustainable community for the Indigenous people and contribute to Sustainable Development Goal 11, this study was undertaken to gather essential information that can inform policy decisions and strategic planning for the advancement of Indigenous communities. This study aims to determine the areas that could be developed in the indigenous community in southern Luzon Philippines using the Threats, Opportunities, Weaknesses, and Strengths (TOWS) matrix. Using a qualitative ethnographic method, data were collected through community immersion, participatory observation, interviews, and focus group discussions. Eighteen indigenous people belonging to the Hanunuo indigenous cultural community were selected as participants. The results show that pre-colonial script (Surat Mangyan), chanted poetry (Ambahan), and indigenous textile weaving (Ramit) are still being practiced by the elders. However, the younger generation prioritizes livelihood over cultural preservation, which would lead to the extinction of this intangible cultural heritage. Livelihood and cultural identity are essential for community development; thus, devising programs that address both are necessary. The findings served as a basis for the formulation of a strategic community development plan serving benchmarks for government agencies, higher education institutions, and non-government organizations.

Authors: Akilith Andrie Jann V , Cristobal Kathleen P , Madamba Jr Miguel G
Published: February 2025

Using Foa and Kozak’s fear network model, this study explored the lived experiences of individuals exposed to disturbing content across various media platforms. Through an Interpretative Phenomenological Approach (IPA), the study identified three key themes: Personal Distress, reflecting emotional struggles and intrusive thoughts akin to traditional PTSD symptoms; Digital Hypervigilance, mirroring heightened vigilance and avoidance behaviors; and Adaptive Mechanisms, highlighting coping strategies developed to manage distress. This study raises public awareness about the psychological impact of engaging with disturbing media content and deepens understanding of how media-acquired trauma parallels traditional traumatic stress. Recommendations include psychotherapy tailored for e-traumatization, stricter content moderation on media platforms, accessible helplines on social media, and public awareness campaigns to mitigate the effects of disturbing media content.

Published: February 2025

Teachers are fundamental to a university’s success, and their satisfaction and motivation are essential for institutional growth. This study explores the factors influencing teachers’ retention at the University of Saint Louis, Tuguegarao, aiming to uncover and analyze key elements behind their long-term commitment. Using a qualitative method and descriptive research design, structured interviews with university teachers provided insights into their reasons for staying. The study identified one central theme: Various Factors Affecting Teachers’ Decision to Stay, which includes two subthemes: Extrinsic Factors (e.g., salary, benefits, work environment, and organizational policies) and Intrinsic Factors (e.g., job satisfaction, sense of purpose, and opportunities for professional growth). These findings highlight areas for the university to strengthen its strategies for managing employees and fostering a supportive environment. By addressing both tangible and personal motivators, the organization can ensure its educators feel valued and inspired to contribute to its long-term success
Lexical decision times for nouns from the Croatian Psycholinguistic Database
Authors: Vlašiček Denis , Dumančić Francesca , Tonković Mirjana
Published: February 2025

Megastudies are one of the tools which researchers in psychology and linguistics use when investigating various language phenomena. This study presents an analysis of the association between word length, subjective frequency, concreteness and age of acquisition ratings, and reaction times in a visual lexical decision task. Using a megastudy paradigm, we have collected data on 2614 Croatian nouns, from a total of 92 participants. The results of the analyses conducted on the dataset mostly confirm the findings of previous research — shorter lexical decision times are associated with more frequent words, shorter words, and words acquired earlier in life. Findings on the association between lexical decision times and word concreteness are mixed. Both reaction-level and aggregate data related to the study have been made freely available to the public. The datasets contain lexical and subjective word frequency estimates, word lengths, animacy and gender, as well as word concreteness, imageability and age of acquisition ratings.
Addressing Systematic Non-response Bias with Supervised Fine-Tuning of Large Language Models: A Case Study on German Voting Behaviour
Authors: Holtdirk Tobias , Assenmacher Dennis , Bleier Arnim , Wagner Claudia
Published: February 2025

A major challenge for survey researchers is dealing with missing data, which restricts the scope of analysis and the reliability of inferences that can be drawn. Recently, researchers have started investigating the potential of Large Language Models (LLMs) to role-play a pre-defined set of ``characters'' and simulate their survey responses with little or no additional training data and costs. Previous research has mostly focused on zero-shot LLM predictions. However, often other survey responses are at least partially available. This work investigates the viability and robustness of supervised fine-tuning on these responses to simulate systematic and random item-level non-responses in the context of German voting behaviour.Our results show when systematic item non-responses are present, fine-tuned LLMs outperform traditional classification approaches on survey data. Fine-tuned LLMs also seem to be more robust to changes in the set of features that the model can use to make predictions. Finally, we see that fine-tuned LLMs match the performance of traditional classification methods when survey responses are missing completely at random.
Homogenizing Effect of a Large Language Model (LLM) on Creative Diversity: An Empirical Comparison of Human and ChatGPT Writing
Authors: Moon Kibum , Green Adam , Kushlev Kostadin
Published: February 2025

Generative AI systems, especially Large Language Models (LLMs) such as ChatGPT, have recently emerged as significant contributors to creative processes. While LLMs can produce creative content that might be as good as or even better than human-created content, their widespread use risks reducing creative diversity across groups of people. In the present research, we aimed to quantify this homogenizing effect of LLMS on creative diversity, not only at the individual level but also at the collective level. Across three preregistered studies, we analyzed 2,200 college admissions essays. Using a novel measure—the diversity growth rate—we showed that each additional human-written essay contributed more new ideas than did each additional GPT-4 essay. Notably, this difference became more pronounced at scale and persisted despite efforts to enhance AI-generated content through both prompt and parameter modifications. Overall, our findings suggest that, despite their potential to enhance individual creativity, the widespread use of LLMs could diminish the collective diversity of creative ideas.
The struggle is still real: Marginalized identity of roma preschoolers in the replication of Clark & Clark doll study 77 years after.
Authors: Zezelj Iris , Jovanović Olja , vranjesevic Jelena
Published: February 2025

In this article, we present findings on how minority Roma and majority Serbian preschoolers perceive their own and the other group ethnic identity, and whether they are willing to interact with one another. In a conceptual replication of the seminal Doll study (Clark & Clark, 1947), we individually interviewed 212 children age 5 to 7 from ethnically heterogeneous and ethnically homogeneous preschool groups on group categorization and self-categorization, content of stereotypes, markers of social status, and contact preferences. While we observed a typical pattern of ingroup preference in children from the majority (Serbian) ethnic group, we found the inverse in the Roma group: they identified with the lighter skin doll, attributed more positive traits to it, saw it as a higher status one, and chose it as the one they want to interact with. These markers of negative identity testify to internalized oppression at a very early age. We address similarities and differences in manifestations of oppression across groups and cultures. Drawing from the results, we offer ways to empower minority groups in their first education settings.
Limitations of Dispositional Predictors in Public Health Crises: Evidence from a Three-Year Nationally Representative Panel
Authors: Soboleva Irina , Brik Tymofii
Published: February 2025

Understanding how dispositional factors such as personality shape individual responses to public health crises is crucial for effective policy design. While early COVID-19 studies linked personality to preventive behaviors, little is known about how these associations evolve. Using nationally representative panel data from Ukraine (2019–2021, N=1,409), this study examines the magnitude and persistence of personality traits as predictors of compliance with pandemic measures and vaccination behavior. Findings reveal that crisis-era personality explains only 2% of individual variation in preventive attitudes and behaviors, while COVID-19 exposure accounts for up to 14%. Moreover, pre-pandemic personality better predicts behavior than concurrent measures, with a 1.8-fold stronger effect. These results challenge the theory of personality coherence, suggesting that situational factors increasingly outweigh dispositional influences over time. This underscores the need for longitudinal personality assessments in public health research while recognizing their limited predictive utility in extended crises.
Beliefs about the Causal Interdependence of Virtues and Vices

How do people think different moral virtues and vices affect one another? For example, do they think that improving one virtue (e.g., honesty) will facilitate improvements in another virtue (e.g., compassion)? Do people believe in “master virtues” that, when improved, have disproportionate positive impacts on other moral virtues? Here, we holistically examine perceived causal interdependence among 15 moral virtues and 13 moral vices. Across four studies, participants indicated their beliefs about how increasing their virtues would impact their other virtues (Study 1; 275 Prolific participants), how increasing their vices would impact their other vices (Study 2; 423 undergraduate students), and how increases in virtues would affect vices (or vice versa; Studies 3–4; 337 undergraduate students and 298 Prolific participants). We find people generally believe in facilitation effects, where improving one trait improves other traits and worsening one trait worsens other traits. Specifically, people believe that increasing one virtue tends to increase other virtues (Study 1) and decrease other vices (Studies 3–4). Similarly, people believe that increasing one vice tends to increase other vices (Study 2) and decrease other virtues (Studies 3–4). Perceived tradeoffs were rare and involved laziness and cowardice decreasing or being decreased by other vices. There was little evidence for beliefs in a “master virtue.” However, we find some evidence that people think cruelty and greed are disproportionately impactful “master vices.” These results add to our understanding of lay moral concepts by holistically documenting people’s beliefs about the causal interdependence among moral virtues and vices.
Des victimes prometteuses? Performance et vulnérabilité dans l’économie morale de la légitimité migratoire
Authors: Chauvin Sébastien
Published: February 2025

Des régimes de citoyenneté de plus en plus sélectifs confrontent les migrants transnationaux à deux modes en apparence diamétralement opposés d’évaluation et d’affirmation de leur légitimité : l’un valorisant la performance ou sa promesse – qu’elle soit civique, économique, sociale ou culturelle ; l’autre fondé sur la vulnérabilité et le besoin d’assistance. Mais ces voies concurrentes, à la fois morales et légales, sont-elles si séparées l’une de l’autre ? Attentive aux tensions internes qui structurent les cadres axiologiques de la citoyenneté, cette intervention analyse l’entrelacement des critères de légitimation dans la construction du mérite migratoire. Elle décrit les limites matérielles de l’indexation du mérite sur la performance et revient sur les ressources conditionnant le succès des démarches fondées sur la vulnérabilité. Rappelant enfin qu’il y a de bonnes et de mauvaises vulnérabilités, elle se concentre sur la figure de la victime rédimable, qui fait apparaître la vulnérabilité non tant comme l’inverse de la performance que comme une variante de cette dernière, alors que la montée en puissance de conceptions néolibérales de la bonne citoyenneté définit de plus en plus de la même manière bonne performance et bonne vulnérabilité.
An Analytical Study of Buddhist Art and Jain Art
Authors: Rohit Ramesh
Published: February 2025

Background: Buddhist and Jain artworks are rich manifestations of spiritual and cultural meaning. Buddhist art includes portrayals of Gautama Buddha, Bodhisattvas, narrative scenes, mandalas, and Buddhist-related things such as stupas and temple architecture. Buddhist art originated in the northern Indian subcontinent and changed as Buddhism expanded throughout diverse regions, influencing and being inspired by local creative traditions.
Objective: The objective of this paper is to explore both Buddhist and Jain artworks that have a lengthy history of creation and evolution, reaching back to the Maurya and Kushan eras highlighting the art forms that contain spiritual significance, serving as visual representations of Buddhist and Jain theories and beliefs.
Methodology: Library-based historical and textual analysis approach as well as has been applied to carryout this research and visual analysis of the art work and architectural features have been used for data collection to study the evolution and significance of Buddhist and Jain artworks.
Result: Buddhist art have been found evolved from early Buddha's sculptures to include Bodhisattvas reflecting Buddha's biography, His teachings and the Buddhist philosophy where as Jain art has been found marked by simplicity, serenity and beaty depicting Tirthankaras like Mahavira and Parshvanatha, reflecting Jain philosophy. Both art forms visually represent their respective beliefs and teachings and philosophy.
Conclusion: Buddhist art and Jain art have a long history reaching back to Mouryan and Kusan dynasty. Buddhist art began with devotional sculptures of Buddha and events from his life, but gradually expanded to include depictions of Bodhisattvas and other figures as prominent subjects. Jain art, on the other hand, is distinguished by its simplicity, elegance, and emphasis on symmetry and proportion, reflecting Jain philosophy and values.

“Atom by Atom, All the World into a New Form”: Ralph Waldo Emerson’s Theory of Reform
Authors: Orlandi Daphne
Published: February 2025

The idea of dissent has often been discussed in association with the works of the Transcendentalists, who greatly influenced the literary and philosophical landscape of the United States in the 19th century. This article aims to shed light on an often-ignored side of Ralph Waldo Emerson who, often described as an aloof thinker, was an adamant dissenter and, more specifically, a conscientious reformer. By focusing on his theory of reform as expressed in a selection of essays devoted to this theme, this paper argues that Emerson’s concept of reform, though primarily directed towards the individual, was also intended to have repercussions in society at large. This dichotomy of individualism and communal effort is analyzed in texts which cover a twenty-year span in Emerson’s life, to demonstrate it is an opposition that must be reevaluated and possibly resolved.
Pale Horse, Pale Rider: A Modern Allegory of an Encounter with Death
Authors: Kahol Navdeep
Published: February 2025

The novella Pale Horse, Pale Rider, authored by Katherine Anne Porter and published in 1939, is set against the backdrop of the 1918–1919 Spanish flu pandemic towards the end of World War I. It narrates the dual story of individual and societal trauma and survival amidst the pandemic, contributing to the cultural memory of that era in American history. The narrative draws heavily on autobiographical elements, with the protagonist Miranda’s experiences closely reflecting Porter’s own. As Miranda battles a life-threatening flu, her delirious mind traverses past, present, and future, blurring the boundaries between them. This paper examines Porter’s employment of modernist techniques such as dreams, visions, archetypes, biblical allusions, and stream of consciousness to articulate Miranda’s harrowing yet transformative passage through a liminal space between life and death. Porter’s novelistic approach is distinctly modern in its exploration of mortality and the portrayal of Miranda’s near-death experience, aligning her with modernist contemporaries like T. S. Eliot and James Joyce, who also eschewed traditional literary forms to depict the profound dislocations of their time. The enduring appeal of Pale Horse, Pale Rider lies in its rich symbolism and psychological depth in addressing themes of death and illness.
