This paper raises the issue of how the role of PA lecturers in solving problems of students of Islamic banking study programs majoring in Sharia and Islamic Economics. The method used in this study is field research with a qualitative descriptive approach. The source of important data in this study is the PA lecturer in the Sharia Banking study program which is also called the research informant. The results showed that students had many academic problems, including the problem of taking courses every semester there were pre and no conditions, shortages and excess credits, less cooperative or less familiar with their respective PA lecturers, problems, economics, family there are even personal problems that consult with PA lecturers. The role of PA lecturers in solving the problem of the students in the Islamic Banking study program is quite well, this can be seen from the role of PA lecturers as their student mentors in academic matters that lead to taking courses, as advisors who always remind students in several ways, such as ethical issues , not yet fluent in reading Al-Quran, and as a motivator who always gives motivation to a better future career, their parents' economic problems and their relationship to the late payment of semester fees and others. In general, PA lecturers in the Sharia banking study program have played a role as PA lecturers both as mentors, directors, advisors and motivators in the academic, social, economic and career fields.

Native chicken is one of the livestock that is widely maintained in rural areas in Bali, to fulfil meat and eggs as a food consumption and also for religious ceremonies. However, the population of native chicken continues to decline until 4.15% in average every year due to high price of feed and nature behaviour of the chicken that picks food either by mouth or legs causes a lot of food to be wasted. To minimize the amount of wasted food, given the wet form of feed given in accordance with the needs for production. The study was carried out in Tembuku Subdistrict, Bangli Regency, using 90 laying hens which were divided into 3 group of treatments each with 30 chickens and differentiated between wet feed and dry (ordinary) feed. Where P0 is control, P1 is given Bio L Probiotics 3 cc.liter-1 of drinking water and P2: P1 + Herbs 4 cc.liter-1 of drinking water. The results showed that P0B: 56.71% P0K: 57.54%; P1B: 58.9; P1K 59.73% and P2B: 61.08; P2K: 60.15. The highest productivity were found at P2B and P2K. While the FCR achieved by each treatment were P0B: 3.35; P0K; 3.56; P1B: 3.07; P1K: 3.24 and P2B: 2.98; P2K: 3.13. These results indicate that the providing of wet feed produces a lower FCR than dry feed. The providing of Bio L probiotics could increase productivity
Kohti valveutumista ja ajattelun rajoja kriittisen pedagogiikan keinoilla
Authors: Fornaciari Aleksi , Nikkola Tiina
Published: January 2019

Katsauksessa pohdimme kriittisen pedagogiikan mahdollisuuksia lisätä opettajaopiskelijoiden kykyä jäsentää yhteiskunnallisten ilmiöiden suhdetta kasvatukseen. Esimerkkinä käytämme Lapset elämänsä valtiaiksi -hanketta, jota Tampereen ammattikorkeakoulun sosionomikoulutuksessa on toteutettu Venäjällä ja Virossa. Siinä sosiokulttuurisen innostamisen avulla, opiskelijoiden oman osallistumisen kautta, pyritään luomaan solidaarisuuteen ja tasa-arvoon kurkottavia yksilöitä. Toiminnan keskeisiä arvoja ovat yhteisöllisyys, osallistuminen, dialogi ja luovuus. Prosessin päämääränä on todellisuuden kriittinen tarkastelu ja siitä kumpuava toiminta. Kriittisen pedagogiikan sovelluksia toteutetaan yliopistokentällä kauttaaltaan suhteellisen vähän. Varsinkin opettajankoulutuksen ja kasvatustieteen kentällä koulun ulkopuolelle suuntautuva yhteiskunnallinen ja kriittinen toiminta on harvinaista. Myös yhteiskunnallista tiedostamista lisäävät lähestymistavat, kuten demokratia- ja osallisuuskasvatus tai kriittisen ajattelun taidot, ovat vähäisessä roolissa niin peruskouluissa kuin opettajankoulutuksessakin. Esittelemme Lapset elämänsä valtiaiksi -hankkeen pitkäaikaisen projektikoordinaattorin kanssa käydyn keskustelun pohjalta hankkeen toimintaa sekä pohdimme taustalla vaikuttavan freireläisen kriittisen pedagogiikan ja sen tavoitteiden pedagogista ja tutkimuksellista antia myös opettajankoulutukselle. Kriittisen pedagogiikan keinoin on mahdollista syventää opettajaopiskelijoiden yhteiskunnallista ajattelua sekä terävöittää ymmärrystä kokemuksen, reflektion ja toiminnan yhteydestä.
Ultrasound-guided liver biopsy and drainage
Authors: Prueksapanich Piyapan
Published: January 2019

Despite the presence of non-invasive alternatives, liver biopsy remains the indispensable standard for the diagnosis of many liver diseases, and also provides information for prognostic evaluation and clinical therapeutic decision. Ultrasound guidance has become standard practice for percutaneous liver biopsy and also other percutaneous biliary interventions. Ultrasound offers a number of advantages including its real-timed guidance, lack of radiation exposure, inexpensiveness and the ability to perform at the bedside. In this review, I discuss the indications, contraindications, equipment and procedure, possible complications and post-procedural care for the ultrasound-guided hepatic procedures including percutaneous liver biopsy, percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage, percutaneous cholecystostomy, percutaneous catheter drainage and needle aspiration.

Autoimmune hepatitis is a chronic progressive liver disease which may present as acute hepatitis, chronic hepatitis or even cirrhosis. We report a case of 67-year-old female with diabetic mellitus and hyperlipidemia present with progressive fatigue for one year. Her liver function tests showed hepatocellular injury pattern, elevated serum IgG level and positive ANA 1:320 in homogeneous pattern. Her abdominal ultrasound revealed normal liver parenchyma and no bile duct dilatation. The liver biopsy showed interface hepatitis, lymphoplasmacytic infiltration, bridging necrosis, emperipolesis and hepatic rosettes. The diagnosis autoimmune hepatitis was made according to The Simplified Diagnosis Criteria and The Revised Original Scoring System of the International Autoimmune Hepatitis Group. Her clinical and laboratory were improved after received prednisolone and azathioprine.

BaGeO3 as sintering additive for BaTiO3-MgFe2O4 composite ceramics
Authors: Köferstein Roberto
Published: January 2019

BaTiO3-MgFe2O4 composites (30 wt.% MgFe2O4) with a small addition of BaGeO3 as a sintering additive were synthesized by a one-pot Pechini-like sol-gel process. Nano-crystalline composite powders with a crystallite size of about 10 nm were obtained after reaction at 700 °C for 1 h. Magnetic investigations suggest that the nano-powder is in its superparamagnetic state at room temperature. The addition of BaGeO3 leads to an improved sintering behaviour. DTA measurements reveal the formation of a liquid phase at 1164(3) °C. Dense ceramic bodies (relative density > 90 %) were obtained after sintering for 1 h at 1150 °C. SEM investigations prove a 0-3 connectivity and show that the addition of BaGeO3 promotes the grain growth leading to particles up to 4 μm. In contrast, fine-grained composite ceramics with smaller particles up to 230 nm were obtained after a two-step sintering process. Magnetic measurements indicate a ferrimagnetic behaviour with coercivity values up to 70 Oe depending on the sintering procedure. Furthermore, addition of BaGeO3 results in an increase of the relative permittivity, whereas the dissipation factor slightly decreases.
Formation of metastable calcite-type barium carbonate during low-temperature decomposition of (Ba,Ti)-precursor complexes
Authors: Köferstein Roberto
Published: January 2019

(Ba,Ti)-precursor complexes, important for the production of advanced BaTiO3 perovskite-type materials, undergo structural transformations and complex reactions during their thermal decomposition. Based on XRD phase analysis, combined with Rietveld refinement of crystal structure data, and on IR analysis, the intermediate formation of calcite-type BaCO3 is evidenced, which can be explained by the stabilization of this metastable modification in the form of an oxycarbonate phase down to room temperature. Two possible processes, leading to such an oxycarbonate, are discussed: (i) partial substitution of CO32− by O2− in the anionic sublattice, and (ii) topotaxial formation of calcite-type structural domains of BaCO3 by templating with oxygen-deficient titanates, resulting in the oxide–carbonate intergrowth structures.

A Model of Creating Instructional Materials Based on the School Curriculum for Indonesian Secondary Schools
Authors: Syatriana Eny
Published: January 2019

English performance and competence of Indonesian secondary school students are low. This may result from poor instructional materials so that they do not meet the students’ need; and this should be the main objective for English teachers to improve the learning outcome of students. The purpose of this study is to develop a model of creating instructional materials based on school curriculum. Creating a model of designing instructional materials is part my developmental study consisting of need analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation; this paper discuss need analysis to create a model of creating instructional materials through deep discussion among teachers of secondary schools. The result presents some main procedures need analysis, designing, developing the materials, implementation, and evaluation (ADDIE). The other components include purpose, school curriculum, application of pedagogical aspects, contextualization. The model is derived from ADDIE, Dick and Carey, Jolly & Bolitho, and Instructional Development Learning system (IDLS). Instructional materials with different strategies and various materials improve the English achievement of the students. Both teachers and students argue that appropriate instructional materials are good enough to be used in the teaching and learning process to increase the English achievement of the students.
Temporal case study of household behavioural response to Cape Town's Day Zero using smart meter data
Authors: Booysen Marthinus Johannes , Visser Martine , Burger Ronelle
Published: January 2019

Faced with the threat of "Day Zero", when it was feared that Cape Town's taps could run dry, consumers reduced household water usage from 540 to 280 litres per household per day over the 36 months between January 2015 and January 2018. This paper describes the events that prompted this reduction. We look at how changes in water use were affected by official announcements and by public engagement with this news via the social media activity and internet searches. We analysed the water usage of a subset of middle to high income households where smart hot and cold water meters were installed. For hot water usage patterns we compared meter readings with that in another area unaffected by the drought. We further map our cold water smart meter readings against that of the City of Cape Town's municipal data for domestic freestanding households --- a sample of more than 400,000 households. We found that the introduction of Level 5 restrictions had a perverse effect on consumption, possibly due to confusing messages. The most dramatic change in behaviour appears to have been instigated by a media storm and consequent user panic after the release of the City's Critical Water Shortages Disaster Plan in October 2017. However, contradictory communication from national and provincial government eroded some of this gain. The paper concludes with recommendations for demand management in a similar future scenario.

Authors: Ali Muhammad Ichsan , Abidin Muhammad Raiz
Published: January 2019

Congestion is one of the most significant issues which recently experienced by many cities around the world especially in developing countries such as Indonesia since the world undergoes rapid economic and human development. Rappocini district, one of the districts located in Makassar city Indonesia, is currently experiencing massive construction because of this area based on the urban planning of Makassar city associated as a residential zone which may lead to the massive potential congestion. Therefore, this study tries to analyze how population density intervenes level of service of the road. Traffic survey is a method used to collect primary data in the form of classified traffic data (PCU/hour) then analyzed using the 1997 Indonesian Highway Capacity Manual (IHCM) reference and Highway Capacity Manual (HCM) 2016. Regression analysis (SPSS) and spatial (overlay) which is used later to analyze and visualize the correlation between population density and road service level. The result shows that the population density does not cause the level of congestion. However, congestion is influenced by several factors consisted of the number of populations, population density, highway capacity and the daily average of traffic. Population density value does not influence the level of service of the road because Rappocini district is the main gate to access the Makassar city from the south of Sulawesi; therefore, the congestion mostly caused by the commuter from Gowa and Takalar Regency.Citation this paper: Ali, Muhammad Ichsan., Abidin, Muhammad Raiz., "Population Density and Intensity of Traffic Connection: Spatial Analysis (Overlay)", International Journal of Science and Research (IJSR), Volume 7 Issue 12, December 2018, 546 – 552.
Gender associations in the twentieth-century English-language literature
Authors: Schulz Daniel , Bahník Štěpán
Published: January 2019

The data required to study stereotypes held in the past are often not available. Using Google Books Ngram corpus, we explored the depiction of male and female characters in the twentieth-century English-language fiction. By analyzing adjective-noun bigrams, we examined adjectives used in association with “man”, “woman”, “boy”, and “girl”. Men were described in more positive terms than women. Girls were depicted in more positive terms than boys at the beginning of the twentieth century, but the tendency reversed in the middle of the century. Boys were described in more masculine terms than girls; however, men were described in similarly masculine adjectives as women. Despite limitations of interpretability of the results, the study presents a possible approach of exploring past stereotypes.
Engaging Saudi EFL Students in Online Peer Review in a Saudi University Context
Authors: Daweli Talal Waleed
Published: January 2019

This study focuses on a Saudi English as a foreign language (EFL) context. It employs Google Docs as an educational tool to engage Saudi EFL students in online peer review to address some challenges faced instructors when they implement peer review in class. The main goals of the study are examining what kinds of corrective feedback that Saudi EFL students provide when they edit their peers’ texts in Google Docs, how they can improve their texts based on the collaborative online peer review, and what their attitudes are toward using Google Docs as an online peer review tool. The study utilizes Google Docs, an online questionnaire, and an interview as research tools; after thematic analysis, the results show that Saudi EFL students focus on local and global writing issues and provide different types of corrective feedback that aid them to improve their writing. They have positive attitudes toward using Google Docs in peer review. This tool allows them to engage in an online social environment outside the classroom, feel as critical editors, adjust their writing, and avoid embarrassment. The results also suggest that hierarchical power in the classroom and students’ prior beliefs and experiences can impact their responses to the given feedback from teachers and peers. This study recommends instructors to integrate online peer review as a genre and move beyond low-stakes genre in EFL writing courses at the university level.
A Gender-based Investigation of the Perception of English Language Teachers at Saudi Universities Regarding the Factors Influencing Learner Autonomy
Authors: Al-malki Eidah Abdullah
Published: January 2019

Learner autonomy has been a focus of attention in the realm of English Language Teaching (ELT) research nowadays and the study in hand is an attempt to investigate learner autonomy in theory and practice from the perspective of English language teachers. It aims to identify gender-based perceptions of English language teachers from a Saudi university regarding the role of the textbooks, study material, support of English language teachers, the students’ learning strategies, students’ motivation and self-evaluation in enhancing learner autonomy. This empirical survey has involved 30 male and 30 female (n=60) English language teachers from English language center of Taif University, Saudi Arabia to record their insights and views about their perceptions and prospects of these pedagogical constructs in their teaching practices. The participants of the study responded to a 35-point Likert-scale modified questionnaire to generate data. Independent-samples T-test has been run to calculate percentages of their responses as well as to identify any statistically significant gender-based differences. The results revealed that only six items out of the total 35 have shown significant gender-based differences in the perceptions of the participants of the survey. The findings have revealed that the participants of this study bear extremely positive attitudes towards the pedagogical significance of learner autonomy and have exhibited encouraging trends about the implementation of this construct in the classrooms. Recommendations have been forwarded based on the results of this survey.
An Examination of China's Soft Power
Authors: Avery Ryan
Published: January 2019

China’s soft power strategy has dominated the discourse on Chinese domestic and foreign policies both internally and externally. The subject has sparked interest within China to contribute to building a positive national image, while foreign analysts seek out ulterior motives, questioning the credibility of state-led soft power. This study will attempt to identify how China’s soft power is perceived and implemented by comparatively analyzing the extant data and literature on the subject. Through examining the various perceptions of soft power and how it is used by China, I aim to demonstrate that despite the myriad of research, soft power remains ambiguous in its embryonic stage and therefore should not be assessed without an aggregated measurement to operationalize soft power.
Gender-Based Analysis Plus in Canada: Problems and Possibilities of Integrating Intersectionality
Authors: Hankivsky Olena , Mussell Linda
Published: January 2019

International debate is ongoing regarding the innovation of gender mainstreaming (GM), its efficacy, and future utility. Likewise, in Canada, there is a push to learn from early GM efforts and a renewed focus on creating more responsive mainstreaming strategies. Although Canada’s gender-based analysis (GBA) has been researched and evaluated, this study uses the feminist theory of intersectionality to examine the newer GBA+ model, which builds on its predecessor. Drawing on thematic analysis of 32 stakeholder interviews from three different sectors and content analysis of key policy reports, we investigate how the shift to this new model is perceived, whether inclusion of the “+” results in greater responsiveness, and how to better operationalize intersectionality in policy contexts.

Authors: Chow Emmanuelle , Parkinson Stephanie , Jenkin Joanna , Anderson Alisha , King Andrea , Maccanti Heidi , Minaee Novia , Hill Kylie
Published: January 2019

Purpose: The authors determined the reliability and validity of the Four-Point Pusher Score (4PPS) among stroke survivors. Method: Stroke survivors were invited to participate within 48 hours of admission to a stroke rehabilitation unit in a tertiary hospital. Intrarater reliability was determined by examining scores assigned to the same patient by the same physiotherapist. Interrater reliability was determined by examining scores assigned to the same patient by two other physiotherapists. Validity was determined by examining associations with the Burke Lateropulsion Scale (BLS), Scale for Contraversive Pushing (SCP), and functional scales. Results: A total of 85 participants who were a median of 13 (interquartile range 9–21) days post-stroke completed this study. The weighted κ statistic for 4PPS intra- and interrater reliability was 0.97 ( p < 0.001). Scores on the 4PPS were very strongly associated with scores on the BLS ( rs= 0.95) and the SCP ( rs= 0.86). Strong associations were evident between the 4PPS and the Berg Balance Scale ( rs= –0.77), Chedoke-McMaster Stroke Assessment postural control scale ( rs= –0.76), and FIM Motor sub-scale ( rs= –0.64; all ps < 0.001). Conclusion: The 4PPS is a reliable and valid scale to assess lateropulsion and pusher behaviour in stroke survivors in an in-patient rehabilitation setting.
Association of Modifiable Risk Factors with Bone Mineral Density among People with Distal Radius Fracture: A Cross-Sectional Study
Authors: Dewan Neha , MacDermid Joy C. , Grewal Ruby , Beattie Karen
Published: January 2019

Purpose: This study determined the extent to which modifiable risk factors (balance, muscle strength, and physical activity [PA]) explained variability in bone mineral density (BMD) among people with a recent distal radius fracture (DRF). Method: This cross-sectional study included 190 patients, aged 50–80 years, with a DRF. Participants were assessed for balance, muscle strength, PA, fracture-specific pain, and disability. Areal BMD at the femoral neck (BMD-FN) and total hip (BMD-TH) was assessed. Correlation and multiple linear regression was used to determine the contribution of modifiable risk factors to BMD. Results: Balance, handgrip strength, knee extension strength, and plantar-flexion strength had significant bivariate associations with BMD-FN. There was a weak to moderate correlation ( r = 0.25–0.40; p < 0.05) of balance and grip strength with BMD. Grip strength independently ( p < 0.05) explained 17% and 12% of the variability in BMD-FN ( n = 81) and BMD-TH ( n = 82), respectively. Stratified by age, balance ( R2 = 0.10; p = 0.04) and grip strength ( R2 = 0.32; p = 0.003) were independent significant predictors of BMD-FN among women aged 50–64 years and 65–80 years, respectively. Conclusions: Grip strength of the unaffected hand is independently associated with BMD-FN and BMD-TH in people with recent DRF. It may act as a surrogate for general bone health, frailty, or overall muscle strength rather than as a direct target for intervention.

Published: January 2019

Purpose: In spite of the growing epidemic of non-communicable diseases in Nigeria and the compelling need for the active participation of physiotherapists in health promotion activities around the world, there is no evidence that physiotherapists in Nigeria are engaged in health promotion activities. This study aimed to investigate the knowledge of, attitudes toward, and practice of health promotion among physiotherapists practising in Nigeria. Method: This was a cross-sectional study. We contacted members of the Nigeria Society of Physiotherapy ( n = 368) by email; the message contained a link to an online questionnaire. Results: A total of 229 (62%) physiotherapists responded. Most demonstrated a good knowledge of health promotion (approximately 70%) and indicated that they often incorporated aspects of health promotion into their patients’ treatment (63%). However, fewer than one-fifth strongly agreed that health promotion was taught in their entry-level programme and had equipped them with the necessary health promotion skills. Conclusions: The majority of the physiotherapists surveyed demonstrated good knowledge and often incorporated health promotion into their routine daily practice. Nevertheless, the respondents stated that their entry-level physiotherapy education had not sufficiently equipped them for health promotion practice. These findings provide a baseline reference that can be used to track capacity building for health promotion practices. The results also highlight important gaps in the physiotherapy entry-level curriculum and the health promotion training needs of physiotherapists in Nigeria.

It is important to simulate a process to see how its production would be in real time. However, there is a few simulation study in literature on continuous flow-biodiesel production in reactive distillation (RD) column. In this study, simulation and optimization of continuous flow-biodiesel (FAME) production in RD column packed with cheaper heterogeneous basic CaO catalyst by using Aspen HYSYS 3.2 software was investigated to contribute to the literature. In study, low-priced waste cooking oil (WCO) and methanol were fed separately into first stage at top of RD column. In the literature, transesterification was considered as pseudo-first order forward reaction, and activation energy (Ea) and frequency factor (A0) for WCO of 79 kj/mol and 2.98 x 1010 min-1 were determined, respectively. After discovering composition of WCO by GC, a set pseudo-first order forward reaction based on triglyceride (as tripalmitin, tristearin, triolein and trilinolein) were written to the simulator. The developed model using General NRTL fluid package was simulated to converge by Sparse Continuation Solver. After simulation, optimum conditions were determined by Optimizer tool and Box algorithm. In the optimization, objective function was selected so as to maximize the sum of conversion and mole fraction of m-oleate in bottom product. As a result, optimum values were determined as reflux ratio of 0.1, reboiler duty of 17.9 W, total feed flow rate of 11.2x10-4 kgmol/hour and methanol/WCO molar ratio of 6.42 for maximum conversion of 99.97% and mole fraction of 70.69%. Consequently, good results were very compatible with literature, thus showing suitability of suggested model, economically feasible biodiesel production and Aspen HYSYS 3.2 capability of handling this process successfully.
Scaffolded Daily Writing Assignments Introducing the Writing of Mathematical Proofs
Authors: Abrahamson David
Published: January 2019

Writing mathematical proofs is a key component of writing in the discipline in mathematics. Historically, many students have struggled in pursuing this endeavor, particularly during their early exposure to the process. To help students progress toward the goal of being able to consistently create well-written proofs, I present an incremental approach used in a course for elementary education majors who are concentrating in mathematics. This approach uses daily low-stakes writing assignments. Using this instructional technique, I found that student engagement improved and that, overall, better mathematical proofs were written. One more instructor at my institution has already adopted the same methods, and I expect more to do so.

A gestão do conhecimento vem sendo trabalhada nas últimas décadas associada à tecnologia e inovação e seu impacto positivo nas organizações. Este estudo aborda as fontes de informação sob a perspectiva da gestão da informação para geração de inteligência competitiva. A metodologia adotada é uma revisão ampliada de literatura que analisa os artigos publicados na área acadêmica nos anos de 2007 a 2018 que abordam o tema Fontes de Informação, Competitividade e Inteligência Competitiva. Os fatores de inclusão são revistas A1, A2 e B1 avaliadas no Qualis Capes pela área de Comunicação e Informação. O estudo objetiva analisar as publicações em periódicos sobre o tema fontes de informação para geração de inteligência competitiva nas organizações.  A amostra totalizou 23 artigos coletados na Base Sci Verse SCOPUS que se enquadraram nos critérios de inclusão deste estudo. Para a confecção dos mapas e análise de densidade foi utilizado o software Vosviewer. Os artigos examinados na amostra demonstram que as pesquisas sobre informação, fonte de informação e inteligência competitiva convergem para o paradigma econômico e tecnológico e que as fontes de informação são ferramentas importantes para que a gestão da informação possa emergir como mecanismo estratégico essencial ao desempenho empresarial.
O comportamento informacional de líderes religiosos em Belo Horizonte
Authors: Machado Gilmara de Cássia , Barbosa Ricardo Rodrigues
Published: January 2019

A informação é a base da dinâmica dos processos produtivos e organizacionais e seu uso está vinculado à capacidade de interpretação, compreensão, inovação e gestão visando à tomada de decisão. Com base nisso, a busca da informação é o método pelo qual o indivíduo busca obter informações com um propósito estabelecido, de modo a mudar o seu nível de conhecimento. A necessidade, a busca e o uso da informação são definidos pelas demandas do trabalho e do ambiente social, pela lacuna de conhecimentos do indivíduo e por sua experiência emocional. O uso estratégico da informação possui três objetivos: a criação de significado, a construção do conhecimento e a tomada de decisão. Considerando o valor da informação esta pesquisa visou analisar como ocorre o processo de busca e uso da informação por líderes religiosos para embasar o processo de tomada de decisão em seu dia a dia.
Biblioteca e memória: interlocuções com a comunidade
Authors: Silva Ana Pricila Celedonio da
Published: January 2019

Visa apresentar a perspectiva da biblioteca comunitária como mediadora e difusora da memória coletiva da comunidade. Nesse sentido, apresenta como estudo empírico as bibliotecas comunitárias Criança Feliz e Sorriso da Criança, localizadas na cidade de Fortaleza, Ceará. O objetivo norteador da pesquisa foi averiguar de que maneira essas bibliotecas têm atuado como espaços promotores da memória coletiva e se são reconhecidos dessa forma pelos moradores dos espaços onde estão localizadas. Consoante a este objetivo, foram realizadas investigações acerca das principais características das comunidades, bem como sobre as atividades desenvolvidas pelas bibliotecas e seus acervos, buscando averiguar se estes remetem para uma atuação voltada à difusão da memória e cultura local. Ademais, buscou-se identificar como ocorre a relação entre biblioteca e comunidade, e a forma como as ações daquela reverberam no imaginário dos moradores destes locais. Configurando-se como uma pesquisa de cunho qualitativo, exploratório e bibliográfico, são discutidos temas relacionados à memória, comunidade e biblioteca, observando-se em cada um deles seus aspectos conceituais, teóricos, históricos e contemporâneos, articulando junto a estes, discussões acerca da cultura, identidade, cotidiano, pertencimento, dentre outros. Apoiados pelos pressupostos metodológicos da etnografia e da técnica da história oral, a pesquisa se caracteriza como um empreendimento de imersão e interpretação do lócus em que se inserem as bibliotecas supracitadas, de modo a contemplá-las sob a perspectiva da biblioteca comunitária, atuando como interlocutora de memórias coletivas.  Para tanto, utilizou-se como recursos metodológicos a observação participante, entrevistas focalizadas com os gestores e a realização de oficinas discursivas com os moradores adultos e idosos. A partir deste estudo, foi possível identificar o papel cultural e memorial desses espaços, evidenciados de modo especial por meio de duas ações, o projeto Tecendo Memórias, realizado pela Biblioteca Comunitária Sorriso da Criança, e o projeto Histórias e Quintais, organizado em parceria com a Biblioteca Comunitária Criança Feliz. Tais projetos, evidenciaram o caráter dialógico e plural possibilitado na atuação da biblioteca comunitária como mediadora das memórias, identidades e saberes do cotidiano.
Psychothérapie de l’expérience inconsciente
Authors: Erskine Richard , Blondel Agnès
Published: January 2019

Freud définit l’inconscient comme le résultat du refoulement. Pourtant, de récentes découvertes en neurologie et en psychologie développementale indiquent que l’expérience inconsciente pourrait se composer de formes de la mémoire présymboliques, sous-symboliques, implicites et procédurales, et être par ailleurs le résultat d’un traumatisme. Dans cet article, le pré-verbal, le jamais verbalisé, le non-reconnu, l’absent de la mémoire et l’évitement de la verbalisation sont des catégories d’expérience inconsciente auxquelles on aura recours pour décrire deux cas de psychothérapie. On suggérera cinq modèles pré-réflexion – style d’attachement, auto-régulation, besoins relationnels, croyances de scénario et introjection – comme moyen d’organiser le traitement. On décrira également une psychothérapie intégrative relationnelle et profonde pour le traitement de l’expérience inconsciente.
Intégrer ses vulnérabilités refoulées, un antidote à la violence
Authors: Perret Valérie
Published: January 2019

La psychothérapie intégrative met une emphase toute particulière à utiliser la qualité de la relation thérapeute-client comme principe actif de la guérison. Dans cet article, Valérie Perret nous en fait une excellente démonstration. Le texte s’appuie sur une illustration clinique et la nourrit d’apports théoriques clairs et abondants, qui montrent comment la relation est conceptualisée en principe guérisseur. Il en résulte un article solide à la fois en tant qu’enseignement théorique et en tant que pratique commentée. C.L

Published: January 2019

The goal of this note is to describe a class of formal deformations of a symplectic manifold

M

in the case when the base ring of the deformation problem involves parameters of non-positive degrees. The interesting feature of such deformations is that these are deformations "in

A_{\infty}

-infinity direction“ and, in general, their description involves all cohomology classes of

M

of degrees

\geq 2
