Basic Concepts and Definitions
Authors: Getz Donald
Published: February 2019

It has never been more important to develop professionalism in the forecasting, measurement and evaluation of event and tourism impacts. While there has been widespread acceptance of the sustainability paradigm and principles of social responsibility, combined with serious public debate about the costs and benefits of events, venues and tourism, the problems seem to keep getting worse. The impacts of events and tourism have been studied extensively, yet evaluation and impact assessment have not been given the same attention, so theory and methods are relatively undeveloped (Brown et al., 2015). Hence the need for this book and its companion Event Evaluation.
There are generic principles and established methods available to guide professionals in Impact Assessment (IA) and evaluation, but in the realm of events and tourism we often witness poor methods and a deliberate lack of comprehensiveness, transparency and accountability for both political and selfish reasons. As an introduction to some of the important issues, consider these scenarios relating to events and event tourism. There are four major types of IA discussed in this book and these scenarios introduce them.

The first part of this chapter is devoted to discussing CBA and offering a more comprehensive approach that employs selected Key Impact Indicators presented throughout this book. In the second part the BACE model is presented as a framework for integrating evaluation and impact assessment within a strategic planning process.
Often CBA is done only for the economic dimension, in monetary terms, and as part of forecasting or a feasibility study. The triple-impact-assessment method of Andersson and Lundberg (2013) has been developed to overcome the incommensurability problem (i.e., different measures for different impact objects), but it is not always acceptable to express all costs and benefits in monetary terms. The Event Compass, as discussed in the companion book, follows a goal-attainment approach that does not require comparable measures for each impact dimension.
Ecological Impacts
Authors: Getz Donald
Published: February 2019

In this chapter we examine nature, ecology and ecological impacts, as distinct from the impacts of events and tourism on the built or human environment.
This brings sustainability to the fore, and that is a term that has to be examined carefully with reference to the ‘greening’ of events, different interpretations of the meaning of sustainability, and how this influences evaluation and impact assessment.
It is also very useful to examine environmental impacts ON events, as opposed to the impacts OF events. This involves an illustration of the event settings spectrum that identifies important variables related to the differences between indoor events and those situated in natural environments.
The subjects and objects of ecological impact assessment for events and tourism are examined in detail, presenting goals, methods and indicators that can be applied to the full range of ‘subjects’ – individuals and families or the entire nation.
The process of EIA follows the generic IA process model, with a number of special considerations. Methods include the Leopold Matrix, Forces-Pressures-State-Impact-Response model, and carbon and ecological footprint analysis.

Focuses on stakeholder theory applied to event management and goes beyond traditional approaches by treating event management as an applied field.
Perspectives on Stakeholder Theory
Authors: Niekerk Mathilda van , Getz Donald
Published: February 2019

This chapter provides elaboration of stakeholder theory, commencing with four general perspectives on stakeholder theory as identified by Donaldson and Preston (1995). This is followed by a discussion of how CSR or corporate social responsibility has influenced thinking about stakeholders and forms an integral part of the normative perspective. Carroll’s (1993) popular CSR model has been adapted and modified for this book, providing a more integrated and relevant approach.
Defining and classifying stakeholders is the third major topic covered, drawing first on generic stakeholder theory and commencing with a discussion of primary and secondary, active and passive stakeholders. Particularly attention is given to the framework provided by Mitchell, Agle and Wood (1997) that defines ‘stockholder salience’ as a combination of ‘legitimacy, power and urgency’. These terms are explored in detail. The chapter concludes with an examination of event and tourism stakeholders, including a diagram and research notes from the events and tourism literature.
Introduction to Stakeholder Theory
Authors: Niekerk Mathilda van , Getz Donald
Published: February 2019

Of the many management-oriented theories, concepts and models available, stakeholder theory (ST) is one of the few that has found a firm place in event management and event tourism, both in the research literature and in practice. Why? Because of the vital importance of knowing and managing stakeholders in all contexts, whether it is a single event, a city or destination, or a business dealing with events. The influence of stakeholders cannot be ignored, as they are an inherent part of planning, marketing and management. Once you understand the basics as described in this book you should be able to identify and classify your organization or event’s stakeholders and develop appropriate management tools reflecting your needs. Although the origins of the theory concern a company’s external relationships, it is especially important for events and destinations to consider both internal and external stakeholders. The chapter starts with basic definitions, then goes on to fully explore stakeholder theory.
Puhumalla hallitseminen. Vahvan johtajuuden ilmentyminen Kekkosen radiopuheissa 1937–1967

Leadership through Speeches. The Manifestations of Strong Leadership in Kekkonen’s Radio Speeches of the Years 1937–1967Presidential radio speeches, as they were broadcast in Finland from the 1930s to the 1960s, were an integral part of Urho Kekkonen's political leadership and his position as the head of the state. In this article, Kekkonen’s speeches are divided into three genres: memorial speeches, New Year’s speeches, and foreign policy speeches. Each speech genre can be interpreted to avail various political ambitions and the political objectives strengthened during the time. In his first national radio speeches, Kekkonen was moderate and restraint, but during the 1950s the speeches became persuasive and eloquent. In Kekkonen’s most famous speeches of the 1960s, he applied diverse techniques of classic rhetoric aiming at strong rhetorical leadership. The 34 speeches, discussed in this article, are analyzed from the perspectives of neo-classical and generic rhetorical criticism.Puhumalla hallitseminen. Vahvan johtajuuden ilmentyminen Kekkosen radiopuheissa vuosina 1937–1967  Tarkastelen tässä artikkelissa Urho Kaleva Kekkosen vuosina 1937–1967 pitämiä radiopuheita. Radiopuheet olivat kiinteä osa Kekkosen poliittista johtajuutta ja hänen asemaansa valtionpäämiehenä. Puheet jaetaan artikkelissa kolmeen lajityyppiin: muistopuheisiin, uudenvuodenpuheisiin ja turvallisuuspuheisiin. Jokaisella lajityypillä voi tulkita olleen omat poliittiset tavoitteensa. Lajityyppien sisällä on paljon vaihtelua: Kekkosen radioretoriikkaa leimaa etenkin tarkastelujakson alkupuolella maltillisuus ja pidättyväisyys, mutta joissain 1960-luvun ulko- ja turvallisuuspoliittisissa puheissa voidaan havaita lähinnä uskonnolliselle retoriikalle ominaista hurmoshenkisyyttä. Kekkosta voidaan pitää monellakin tapaa klassisena poliittisena reettorina. Hän tunsi ja hallitsi monipuolisesti retoriikan tekniikoita eikä kavahtanut – kuten retorinen analyysi etenkin niin kutsuttujen yöpakkas- ja noottikriisipuheiden yhteydessä osoittaa – kovien tekniikoiden käyttämistä poliittisissa ristiriitatilanteissa.
THE IMPACT OF THE QUALITY OF INTRINSIC AND EXTRINSIC ATTRIBUTES IN CREATING LOYALTY AND PURCHASE INTENTION
Authors: . Albari , Dewi Sofian
Published: February 2019

A business organization should always strive to maintain its sustainability by creating loyalty and purchase intention towards its products. The activity is specifically required for an organization engaged in the restaurant industry. The organization needs to be aware of which product attributes are in concern to the customers when purchasing the food in a restaurant. This research was intended to measure the importance of the quality from intrinsic and extrinsic attributes of a product for the customers and its impact on the customers’ loyalty and purchase intention. The research was conducted by involving the customers of a pizza product in Yogyakarta. 116 respondents were selected using convenience sampling technique. Meanwhile, the data being obtained were analyzed by using structural equation modeling (SEM) approach and data processing program named AMOS 20.0 after going through two stages of testing, namely data validity and data reliability tests. The results showed that the intrinsic attributes quality has a direct and positive impact on the customer’s purchase intention, but there is no impact  on their loyalty. On the other hand, the extrinsic attributes quality has both direct and indirect impacts on the purchase intention through the loyalty mediator variable. The results also demonstrated the dominance of the importance of loyalty in the research model. This was indicated by the significance of direct impact or predictive total impact of loyalty towards purchase intention as compared to the impact of intrinsic and extrinsic attributes quality.

MICRO- AND MACRO-MODELS OF INFORMATION INTERACTION PROCESS IN SOCIAL SYSTEMS
Authors: Azhmukhamedov Iscandar Maratovich , Machueva Dina Aluevna
Published: February 2019

The processes occurring in social systems are now increasingly being studied by methods of systems analysis and mathematical modeling. First of all, it concerns the processes of information dissemination in the social environment. Understanding the patterns of information exchange in the social system allows you to monitor information background, predict the dynamics of opinion formation, assess the level of use of social communication channels and, as a result, develop effective information management decisions and take measures to counteract malicious information campaigns. There is a need for scientifically based approaches to conducting research in social systems of various sizes, obtaining and interpreting data characterizing the participants in information exchange. The developed mathematical models of the process of information interaction that are based on two approaches to the description of social systems - at the micro and macro levels- have been submitted for consideration. By carrying out computer simulation experiments, the qualitative and quantitative coincidence of the results of calculating the awareness and distribution of the spectrum of opinions obtained using these models has been proved.
COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF DIFFERENT CRITERIA OF SITE STRUCTURAL STABILITY IN THE TIME SERIES
Authors: Landman Liliya Andreevna , Faddeenkov Andrei Vladimirovich
Published: February 2019

The concept of structure is used to describe a set of stable relations between the main parts of the object, which describe its integrity and identity, i.e, preserving the basic properties for a wide range of internal and external changes. This concept usually relates to the concepts of system and organization. The structure expresses a stable part of the system that is slightly changed during different reforms. Over the years structural changes take place because of active economic policy or as a result of spontaneous, uncontrollable processes. Therefore, it seems to be quite natural to find out whether there have been structural changes in the observation period, and to find them reflected in the specification of the model. The basic ideas of methods for determining structural changes in the time series dynamics have been considered, such as Chow test, Gujarati test and Poirier method. The power study was conducted for the three possible cases of change in time series trends. The random error was modeled according to the standard normal distribution. A linear multiple regression model with three independent variables was used as a time series model. Estimation of the vector of unknown parameters of the model was conducted using least squares method. For each of the three criteria the of test the null hypothesis about time series instability was carried out using the F -criterion, which involves finding the residual sum of squares of a regression model and analysis of correlation between its decline and the loss of degrees of freedom. It can be noted that Gujarati and Poirier equations have a more complex structure than equation of Chow test; however, using Chow test assumes estimation of the parameters of the three regression equations.

Published: February 2019

The article highlights the approach to processing landed property data based on Blockchain technology and Ethereum platform, which allows the transparent, decentralized and highly reliable system for network users with restricted access to personal data. A review of the platforms for creating decentralized online services has been performed; their advantages and disadvantages considered. The inventory of the fields required for work with the landed property. There have been selected tools for working with Ethereum platform: browser Mist and the high-level language Solidity. To facilitate working with the inventory there were created a site with a map based on SharePoint platform and integrated using API Yandex.map. Peculiarity of the system under consideration is the need for trust between the participants who add data to the inventory. It has been proposed to use either a system based on a credible exchange of certificates, as they provide the high level of personal data security and have a service life, i.e. they are active only for one session, or a system of criteria for calculating the combined trust and assigning it to another person. Emphasis is made on the need to take into account the context of collaboration and shared services in trust management. The use of Blockchain technology for solving a practical task, namely, processing and storing spatial data on landed property, is an efficient way to store data, which will ensure the data relevance and reliability, as well as reduce their loss
ASPECTS OF MODERNISATION OF THE TRANSPORT-LOGISTIC SYSTEM OF THE PORT
Authors: Sinelshchikov Evgeny Vladimirovich , Turpishcheva Marina Semenovna
Published: February 2019

The introduction of mobile cranes into sea port operation is associated with a change in the technological scheme of trans-shipment of goods using mobile cargo technologies, which requires revising the concept of organizing the transport and logistics system of interaction of technical and technological elements of the port. The article presents a structural scheme of cargo flow handling and transport servicing by means of “Port” production system, the core of which make loading machines, mechanized operation at freight terminals, computerized goods registration and forwarding. It has been found that currently there is no universal method to improve the development and intensification of port capacity due to mobile port cranes implementation. The set of factors that influence the choice of the modernization method for “Port” production system reflect the efficiency of using mobile cargo handling technologies and allow to consider the modernization process as a gradual transition to a new technological level of the cargo handling process. It has been suggested to divide modernization process into two stages depending on the level of changes: modernizing elements of cargo handling machines in operation by means of introducing constructive and technological modifications of port facilities; replacement of general cargo handling mechanisms by mobile cargo handling systems. It has been recommended to study the process of modernizing of “Port” operational system using cybernetic approach: the process is represented as a “black box” that transforms input actions in the system “Port” into output reaction. This helps to take up transformations as links of a mathematical expression, as polynomials of the first, second, third orders or multiplicative forms of the equations.
THE USE OF MATHEMATICAL MODELS FOR MOORING HEAVY TONNAGE VESSELS
Authors: Malkov Alexander Aleksandrovich , Ershov Andrey Aleksandrovich
Published: February 2019

The article touches upon the problem of improving the safety of mooring operations of large-tonnage vessels in narrows and under strong winds. The real accident that took place when a passenger ship was berthing in Sankt Petersburg port in 2018 was taken as an example. The proposed methods of specifying aerodynamic composite mathematical models, according to field observations, allow to use them for all ships, including those for which special aerodynamic tests have never been carried out. The considered approaches to field observations for clarifying the mathematical models can be used immediately before mooring operations in strong wind conditions. In this situation, the loading process and wind conditions of the upcoming mooring works should be accurately taken into account. The special observations have been taken on board the gas carrier with high drag superstructure. Graphically presented analysis results prove the possibility to specify the number and capacity of tugs, as well as their positioning alongside the vessel after studying aerodynamic qualities based on test and observation data. It has been found that tug activity at mooring helps to increase the closing speed between the ship and the berth, and to do it under a drift angle impossible with the internal ship propulsion system. There has been considered the system of equations that is used in the mathematical model of ship propulsion, the working expressions of calculating ship propulsion at mooring using tugs being obtained. The full-scale observations on the refinement of mathematical models can be carried out after the ship's departure, in the conditions of specific loading and the state of deck cargo, as well as directly before berthing in the port under strong wind. These conditions allow to take into account the features of a particular berthing process of the ship and to guarantee the most accurate result.
STOCHASTIC MODEL OF SEPARATION PROCESS OF COMPLEX HETEROGENEOUS DISPERSION SYSTEMS IN CENTRIFUGES WITH RADIAL-AXIAL FLOW
Authors: Kicha Gennadiy Petrovich , Nadezkin Andrei Veniaminovich , Semeniuk Liudmila Anatolievna
Published: February 2019

The article describes separation processes in apparatus with complex hydrodynamic conditions. The new approach to the theoretical study consists in taking into account the action of the centrifugal field and the field of random forces, as it was implemented earlier for the simplest structures, but also in a detailed examination of the radial and axial flows. The movement of particles is investigated in the cramped conditions of precipitation during their interaction with each other. The processes of separation in centrifugal devices of various types have been identified, subject to stochasticity, constrained movement of a set of real particles and the possibility of their dispersion and coagulation. The combined deterministic and stochastic effects on the dispersed phase in a centrifugal field are described by means of a differential equation, the solution of which makes it possible to calculate the fractional and total centrifugation efficiency with high accuracy. A semi-analytical method has been developed and implemented for one-and two-dimensional stochastic models for the approximate solution of non-stationary centrifugal boundary value problems. Compared to difference schemes Faedo-Galerkin method gives the solution of equation systems with a smaller number of unknowns defined in all values of the arguments. The use of the method is possible only in the case of homogeneous boundary conditions and is limited by the possibility of selecting a complete system of functions that would satisfy them. The proposed approach to identification of refining fuels and lubricants is preferable since it fully reflects the essence of the processes occurring in centrifuges with a radial-axial flow. Generalization of stochastic effects on centrifugation, taking into account the hydrodynamic features of the flow of shared media in a centrifugal field, allows calculating all indicators of cleaning fuels and oils from mechanical impurities without model experiments, predicting the total and fractional efficiency of fuel oil filters and oil filters of the internal combustion engines. The developed identification method of separating complex dispersed systems is aimed at the synthesis of systems and devices for oil purification and fuel oil preparation of increased efficiency with predetermined parameters of purification quality in operating conditions.

Published: February 2019

The research analyzes the views of young people on the desired social and labor mobility based on the data obtained from a sociological survey. 1,000 people aged 14-30 living in the city of Vladimir were polled. The paper addresses the current issues of the preferred field of work, desired salary, and factors in achieving success of the respondents. The social and labor mobility strategy of young people is considered to be pragmatic and rational. The level of remuneration is the main job selection criterion for them. The younger generation shows a weak desire to work in its major field. In their professional activities, young people are able to fulfill their potential and tend to rely primarily on themselves. In the youth opinion, the economic situation in the country exerts a powerful effect on social and labor mobility. The qualities necessary for career development include a high level of education and proficiency, personal relationship with useful people.
Standardization of teacher education in the USA and Russia: a comparative study
Authors:   Ussuriysk branch of  Far Eastern Federal University, Pazenko Evgeny Aleksandrovich
Published: February 2019

The research presents a comparative analysis of the standardization of teacher education in the USA and Russia as the main reform tool for the education system. The study determines the place of such elements as licensing, certification, accreditation, and assessment in the structure of standardization. It identifies the common features and fundamental differences of accreditation and assessment in the United States and the Russian Federation. The paper substantiates the thesis that more standardized training and teaching activities demonstrate the trend towards the professionalization of teachers and raise their status. The traditional centralized state regulation of Russian education in the modern context is an advantage that has a positive effect on the quality of education while the United States recognize the need to create the national accreditation system for educational programs. The author concludes that a focus of Russian universities on education sciences, as opposed to the emphasis of American teacher education on major subjects, corresponds to contemporary approaches to training teachers.

Authors:   North-West Federal Tax Service Training Institute, Murashov Sergey Borisovich
Published: February 2019

The study deals with the theoretical conceptualization of social technologies being an effective improvement tool in the company’s management system. It is reasonable for organizations to employ social technologies when addressing the challenges of the social management enhancement and company’s management system development. The research analyzes the essence and advantages of social technologies in the management system through the advantageous combination of their properties such as the management system formalization, structural integration and coordination, capacities for ineffective management risk reduction. It is proved that increased use of these properties can become a strategic factor in the proactive social management adaptation and survival of a company, maintenance of its competitiveness and resilience to a crisis. The author concludes that social technologies should be introduced into the management system. The researcher points out that the sustainability of the social environment and social status of employees appears to be a relevant and problematic task since the social effectiveness in management can be easily underestimated.
Children of rural migrants in China: research on the socialization problems
Authors:   St. Petersburg State University, Yin Shasha
Published: February 2019

The research analyzes the social challenges of internal migration in modern China. The primary focus is on left-behind children («留守儿童»), i.e. children of rural migrants moving to cities because of work. The author summarizes Chinese sociological studies dealing with the analysis of problem situations in this regard. In particular, the paper describes the pivotal approaches of social and demographic scientists to considering the issue of left-behind children and structuring this social group. Besides, it presents current statistical data and typical case studies. The emphasis is placed on arranging custody and socialization of children whose parents have to leave to work in urban areas. Regardless of the analytical approach or methodology, the researchers conclude that children of rural migrants are vulnerable. The reasons for this situation imply the imbalance in their socialization and maldistribution of resources between urban and rural regions. When the Chinese society faces the increase in the percentage of rural migrants, families moving to cities, it is significant to provide social surveys of their children since the future of a child is the pivotal family interest and the main migration factor of parents. Nowadays, the problem of left-behind children is the priority for Chinese economic sociology and rural sociology as it reflects the need to develop and take prompt measures to adjust social policies.

Authors: Povaluk Maristela
Published: February 2019

Este estudo teve por objetivo verificar como a Secretaria Municipal de Saúde de Mafra faz a geração, segregação, acondicionamento, armazenagem, transporte, coleta e, o destino final dos resíduos gerados pelas Unidades de Saúde, para posteriormente elaborar uma proposta  de Gerenciamento dos Resíduos de Serviço de Saúde, para priorizar a Educação Ambiental com ênfase na sustentabilidade. Caracterizou-se como pesquisa bibliográfica e de campo, por meio da aplicação de questionário e entrevistas. O estudo evidenciou que, 76% das unidades de saúde não possuem um local adequado para o acondicionamento dos resíduos desde a geração até a coleta para o destino final. Constatou-se ainda que todas as unidades produzem lixo reciclável, porém somente 53% fazem a separação destes resíduos, o restante das unidades destinam no mesmo recipiente dos resíduos comuns, elevando este índice para 90,4% de todos os resíduos gerados dentro da Secretaria Municipal. Após a interpretação dos dados consolidados, conclui-se que, as Unidades de Saúde não possuem a estrutura necessária para a segregação e armazenagem correta dos RSS, conforme determina a legislação, ainda faltam algumas adaptações na estrutura física. Para a elaboração do PGRSS a pesquisadora se embasou na RDC 306/2004 da ANVISA, juntamente a Resolução 283/2001 do CONAMA, que regulamentam o manejo dos resíduos. Desta forma, como objetivo final, a pesquisadora elaborou o PGRSS para ser apresentado a SMS contendo todas as etapas, partindo do orçamento dos custos para construção dos locais onde serão acondicionados os resíduos, até a coleta pela empresa contratada pela Secretaria.

Com base nestes dados a pesquisa teve como objetivo comparar o equilíbrio e as pressões plantares no antepé nos diferentes biotipos de mulheres que fazem o uso de salto alto. Metodologia: Foi realizado um estudo prospectivo, quali-quantitativo, não randomizado, comparativo, no período de julho a setembro de 2011, na Clínica Escola de Fisioterapia da Universidade do Contestado, UnC campus Mafra, com 58 participantes do gênero feminino, com idades entre 18 e 35 anos, que se apresentaram dentro dos critérios de inclusão e exclusão desta pesquisa. Materiais e Métodos: Foi realizada uma avaliação com as pacientes sem salto, com salto de 4 centímetros, com salto de 8 centímetros e com salto de 10 centímetros, sobre o baropodômetro. Resultados: Os resultados nos mostraram que o Índice de Massa Corpórea (IMC) não apresentou relação com o aumento dos desequilíbrios e das oscilações, causados pelo aumento na altura dos saltos altos. Conclui-se que existe um aumento das oscilações do corpo quando há utilização de calçados de salto alto na realização dos testes no baropodômetro.

Esta pesquisa foi realizada objetivando verificar se existe influência da religiosidade/espiritualidade na qualidade de vida de pacientes oncológicos. Foram entrevistados 10 pacientes portadores de câncer, sendo os dados coletados através de uma entrevista semi-estruturada, utilizando-se para avaliação dos resultados a análise categorial temática de conteúdo, de Bardin (1977). Constatou-se que há uma significativa influência da religiosidade/espiritualidade na qualidade de vida dos doentes, e uma intensificação da fé após o diagnóstico da doença. Observou-se que após a doença as pessoas se voltam mais para sua religiosidade/espiritualidade revendo valores e mudando atitudes para melhorar a qualidade de vida.

Considerando à complexidade de situações e procedimentos na Unidade de Terapia Intensiva e a importância da atuação dos profissionais da enfermagem neste ambiente, este estudo teve como objetivo a identificação dos aspectos emocionais dos profissionais de enfermagem atuantes em uma UTI. A proposta foi de mensurar o nível dos aspectos emocionais propostos por Beck (1993) de ansiedade, depressão, desesperança e ideação suicida nos profissionais da Unidade de Terapia Intensiva de um Hospital do Interior de Santa Catarina. Como instrumentos foram utilizados um questionário sócio demográfico, os Inventários Beck de Ansiedade (BAI), Depressão (BDI), Desesperança (BHS) e Ideação Suicida (BSI), e também uma entrevista semi estruturada. A amostra do estudo foi constituída de 26 indivíduos dos quais 23,07% são enfermeiros e 76,93% técnicos em enfermagem. Destes 84,61% da amostra são do gênero feminino e 15,38% do gênero masculino. A faixa etária predominante dos indivíduos da amostra é de 24 à 28 anos de idade. No que diz respeito aos aspectos emocionais identificados pode-se encontrar que o aspecto emocional mais evidente no grupo estudado foi o da ansiedade e um dos fatores que influenciam neste e nos demais aspectos abordados no estudo foi salientado pelos profissionais da amostra, que é a instabilidade do ambiente da Unidade de Terapia Intensiva. Sendo assim, diante da condição oferecida pelo ambiente em que estes profissionais optaram atuar, estes acabam desenvolvendo mecanismos de defesa, como por exemplo, 65,38% dos profissionais buscam conversar com os colegas de trabalho, 30,76% buscam conversar com outras pessoas e 15,38% utilizam como mecanismo fazer atividades de lazer.

O desenvolvimento de estudos em relação a biodiversidade vem ganhando destaque em publicações científicas. A Mata Atlântica é um ecossistema bastante complexo, possuindo uma alta biodiversidade ameaçada, sendo a principal causa a fragmentação. A ordem Lepidoptera é consideravelmente suscetível à fragmentação de habitats, por tal motivo é considerada um bioindicador. O presente trabalho teve como objetivo identificar a diversidade de espécies de Lepidoptera da borda e do interior de um fragmento de Mata Atlântica (Lato sensu), no município de Seara, SC. As coletas foram realizadas em seis trilhas, mensalmente, de Dezembro de 2010 a Novembro de 2011, com esforço amostral de 2 horas/rede/trilha, totalizando 144 horas de amostragem. Registrou-se um total de 274 indivíduos, pertencentes a de 5 famílias, 22 gêneros e 24 espécies. Em relação a diversidade (indíce de Shannon-Wiener H’) da borda e do interior, os dados da borda (H’) 2,19 e interior (H’) 2,30, não apresentaram diferença significativa entre os dois ambientes. Os valores encontrados para o índice de Shannon-Wiener foram comparados pelo teste “t” de Student, (t= -0,87),  utilizando o programa Past. Assim, esses resultados indicam que a área encontra-se em um estado muito fragmentado, devido a extensão da borda e as trilhas do interior da mata formam pequenos fragmentos com grandes extensões de borda.

Published: February 2019

O cenário onde o ser humano vive na atualidade vem passando por várias modificações decorrentes das ações destrutivas do homem na natureza. Essas ações atuam diretamente na saúde das comunidades agravando e propiciando o aparecimento de doenças. Dessa forma, o presente trabalho tem como objetivo avaliar a maneira como a educação em saúde e a educação ambiental são compreendidas pelos universitários que possuem em sua grade curricular da graduação uma disciplina relacionada ou às questões de saúde ou de meio ambiente, bem como, comparar com os acadêmicos que não as possuem em sua grade de ensino. Usou-se como metodologia um instrumento com questões abertas e fechadas onde os entrevistados definiram suas opiniões a respeito da educação ambiental e educação em saúde. Os instrumentos foram aplicados a acadêmicos da UEMS (Universidade Estadual de Mato Grosso do Sul), Dourados, MS, nos cursos de Ciências Biológicas e Enfermagem, representando os universitários que apresentam as disciplinas na grade curricular e nos cursos de Física e Ciência da Computação, representando aqueles que não possuem as disciplinas em sua grade curricular. Observou-se que o ambiente é visto na grande maioria dos casos como algo externo ao ser humano e as ideias apresentadas não envolvem uma visão crítica a respeito dos conceitos estudados na pesquisa. Conclui-se que tais temas necessitam de uma maior inserção no ensino público do país, desde seus primórdios até ao nível superior.
