First description of histopathological lesions associated with a fatal infection of moose (Alces alces) with the liver fluke Parafasciolopsis fasciolaemorpha Ejsmont, 1932
Authors: Filip-Hutsch Katarzyna , Hutsch Tomasz , Kolasa Szymon , Demiaszkiewicz Aleksander W.
Published: November 2019

Introduction

Parafasciolopsis fasciolaemorpha is a liver fluke typically parasitising moose in Central and Eastern Europe. The aim of our studies was to describe a case of fatal moose parafasciolopsosis, with special emphasis on the histopathological changes caused in the liver tissue by around 10,000 flukes.

Material and Methods

A male moose, found dead in Polesie National Park, eastern Poland, was subjected to parasitological necropsy. Macroscopic and histopathological examination of the liver was performed.

Results

Over 10,000 flukes identified as P. fasciolaemorpha were isolated from the liver parenchyma. Histopathological examination of the liver revealed the presence of multiple cavities, which were filled with flukes and cellular detritus and encysted with a layered capsule of connective tissue. Extensive liver fibrosis with signs of incomplete septal cirrhosis was also observed.

Conclusion

Parafasciolopsosis with accompanying diarrhoea was the most probable reason for the moose’s death. However, it is possible that most moose are able to survive extremely intensive P. fasciolaemorpha infection by formation of extensive fibrosis, which isolates flukes from the liver parenchyma and therefore retards the failure of the organ. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first histopathological description of changes in the liver of a moose infected with P. fasciolaemorpha.
The Machine Age of Marketing: How Artificial Intelligence Changes the Way People Think, Act, and Decide
Authors: Hildebrand Christian
Published: November 2019

Whatever your perception of AI is, the machine age of marketing has arrived. To fully grasp how AI is changing every fabric of both our professional and private lives, we need to abstract beyond the presence of autonomous cars, digital voice assistants, or using machines to translate some text for us. AI is creating new forms of competition, value chains, and novel ways of orchestrating economies around the world. AI is more than just technology, it’s creating a new economy. The fuel that runs this economy is the combination of computational processing power, data, and the algorithms that process this data.

AI has the potential to make our life easier, but this convenience might come at a price which we have to pay such as biases directly built-in to the algorithms we use, data privacy issues or failed AI projects in business practice. But without testing, failing, and learning from our failures, there
When Humanizing Customer Service Chatbots Might Backfire
Authors: Hadi Rhonda
Published: November 2019

More and more companies are using chatbots in customer service. Instead of with a human employee, customers interact with a machine. Many companies give these chatbots human traits through names, human-like appearances, a human voice or even character descriptions. Intuitively such a humanization strategy seems to be a good idea.

Studies show, however, that the humanization of chatbots is perceived in a nuanced way and can also backfire. Especially in the context of customer complaints, human-like chatbots can intensify negative reactions of angry customers, because their performance is judged more critically compared to non-humanized chatbot variants. Service managers should therefore consider very carefully whether and in which situations they should use humanized service chatbots.
Understanding Consumer Preferences from Social Media Data
Authors: Taylor Bradley
Published: November 2019

Consumers produce enormous amounts of textual data of product reviews online. Artificial intelligence (AI) can help analyze this data and generate insights about consumer preferences and decision-making. A GfK research project tested how we can use AI to learn consumer preferences and predict choices from publicly available social media and review data. The common AI tool “Word Embeddings” was used and has shown to be a powerful way to analyze the words people use. It helped reveal consumers’ preferred brands, favorite features and main benefits. Language biases uncovered by the analysis can indicate preferences. Compared to actual sales data from GfK panels, they fit reasonably within various categories. Especially when data volumes were large, the method produced very accurate results. By using free, widespread online data it is completely passive, without affecting respondents or leading them into ranking or answering questions they would otherwise not even have thought of. The analysis is fast to run and no fancy processing power is needed.
Levels of Coordination in Early Semantic Development
Authors: Rączaszek-Leonardi Joanna , Rossmanith Nicole , Nomikou Iris , Rohlfing Katharina J.
Published: November 2019

In this paper, we show that early interaction can be seen as comprising of strands of coordinated activity on multiple levels and timescales. In tracing the development of such multilayered organization from an embodied and situated perspective, we underscore the role of the reliable presence of the structured environment, an enacted niche, supporting the segregation and integration of participatory interaction strands. This perspective allows us to study the development of social coordination not only in terms of development of individual skills but, crucially, as a change of participatory emergent patterns, a transformation in engagement. We illustrate this approach with some results from the collaborative research project on Early Semantic Development (EASE). Using qualitative microanalysis combined with quantitative dynamical time series analyses, we were able to demonstrate several layers of such organization: from local forms of coordination, such as basic informational coupling within a modality, and the emergence of specific social affordances, to more global co-action structures such as affect imbued ‘action arcs’ – dynamic action contours with a beginning, build-up, climax and resolution, co-enacted by participants. Pointing to future work, we underscore the potential of these global structures to contribute to the emergence of more complex interactions, such as composite activities within ‘pragmatic frames’, narratives, or language.
Parent-Child Conversations About Biological Kinds as a Potential Contributor to the Variability in Biological Knowledge
Authors: Tarłowski Andrzej
Published: November 2019

There is a growing body of research on variability in the early development of biological knowledge. Most of the studies focus on the variability related to culture and direct exposure to nature, however, there is also data suggesting that parental input plays an important role. In children’s first years of life, parents play a key role in scaffolding development. It is therefore very important to provide a detailed account of how parents contribute to children’s understanding of living things, and how they convey biological knowledge through everyday conversations. The present article provides a review of the literature on variability in biological knowledge and parent-child conversations about biological kinds. It also presents original data from parent-child interactions while viewing picture books. Eighteen parent-child dyads who differed in the level of parental expertise within biology, talked while viewing books containing 24 photographs of animals and plants. The speech analysis specified labeling, perceptual and conceptual descriptions, relational, and mentalistic talk. Parents also completed a questionnaire on the child’s interests. The results showed that biology expert families produced more content overall, and a higher proportion of relational content than lay families. The findings help elucidate the specific role parents have in shaping children’s early biological understanding. In particular, I discuss the role of relational language in shaping children’s ontological commitments.
Children’s Mental State Talk, Empathy, and Attachments to Companion Animals
Authors: Bosacki Sandra , Tardif-Williams Christine
Published: November 2019

Children’s emotional and mental worlds are often influenced by their experiences with companion animals. This study explored 77 (50 g; 27 b) 6- to 12-year-old children’s empathy; perceived companion animal friendship, comfort, and bonding; and mental state talk in conversations about their interactions with their companion animal. Children completed self-report questionnaires and responded to two moral stories about companion animals. Results showed that higher levels of children’s mental state talk were related with high levels of empathy for companion animals. Compared to boys, girls reported significantly stronger companion animal friendships, and that they received more comfort from their companion animals. Results also showed that, for girls only, higher levels of perceived companion animal friendship were related to higher levels of emotional comfort received. The findings can inform humane education programs that promote mental state talk, moral agency, and relationships.
Capturing Endothelial Cells by Coronary Stents - From Histology to Clinical Outcomes
Authors: Tomasevic Miloje , Rakocevic Jelena , Dobric Milan , Aleksandric Srđan , Labudovic Milica
Published: November 2019

Introduction of drug-eluting stents (DES) in the therapy of patients with coronary artery disease resulted in the significant reduction of in-stent restenosis compared to bare-metal stent (BMS) treatment. However, the high incidence of late stent thrombosis with DES emerged as one of the safety concerns after their implantation. Enhancing stent endothelization by improved early healing and neointimal strut coverage emerged as possible solution for this late complication. Endothelial progenitor cells (EPC) capturing stents are designed to promote in situ endothelization with immobilized, antihuman, anti-CD34 antibodies attached to the luminal stent surface. Anti-CD34 antibodies target and capture EPC from circulation, which further differentiate into vascular endothelial cells and form functional endothelial layer on the stent surface. These cells are also capable of secreting pro-angiogenic factors that stimulate local endothelial cells to proliferate and migrate. Preclinical and clinical studies proved feasibility, efficacy and safety of EPC capturing stents in stable and high-risk patients with coronary artery disease. Rapid and extensive endothelization of EPC capturing stents translated into favorable profile of clinical outcomes, comparable to efficacy of BMSs and DESs. Therefore, we here present the most important results from the experimental and clinical studies that explored ECP capturing strategy to enhance endothelization, reduce the incidence of instent thrombosis and improve outcomes of patients with coronary artery disease, along with the future perspectives in this promising therapeutic approach.
The Zariski Topology on the Graded Primary Spectrum Over Graded Commutative Rings
Authors: Al-Zoubi Khaldoun , Jaradat Malik
Published: November 2019

Let G be a group with identity e and let R be a G-graded ring. A proper graded ideal P of R is called a graded primary ideal if whenever rgsh∈P, we have rg∈ P or sh∈ Gr(P), where rg,sg∈ h(R). The graded primary spectrum p.Specg
(R) is defined to be the set of all graded primary ideals of R.In this paper, we define a topology on p.Specg
(R), called Zariski topology, which is analogous to that for Specg
(R), and investigate several properties of the topology.

A Three Dimensional Modification of the Gaussian Number Field
Authors: Haluška Ján , Jastrzębska Małgorzata
Published: November 2019

For vectors in E
3 we introduce an associative, commutative and distributive multiplication. We describe the related algebraic and geometrical properties, and hint some applications.

Based on properties of hyperbolic (Clifford) complex numbers, we prove that the resulting algebra 𝕋 is an associative algebra over a field and contains a subring isomorphic to hyperbolic complex numbers. Moreover, the algebra 𝕋 is isomorphic to direct product ℂ×ℝ, and so it contains a subalgebra isomorphic to the Gaussian complex plane.

Let (X, ℱ) be a measurable space with a nonatomic vector measure µ =(µ

2). Denote by R(Y) the subrange R(Y)= {µ(Z): Z ∈ ℱ, Z ⊆ Y }. For a given p ∈ µ(ℱ) consider a family of measurable subsets ℱ
p
= {Z ∈ ℱ : µ(Z)= p}. Dai and Feinberg proved the existence of a maximal subset Z* ∈ Fp
having the maximal subrange R(Z*) and also a minimal subset M* ∈ ℱ
p
with the minimal subrange R(M*). We present a method of obtaining the maximal and the minimal subsets. Hence, we get simple proofs of the results of Dai and Feinberg.
On Functions of Bounded (φ, k)-Variation
Authors: Leiva Hugo , Merentes Nelson , Rivas Sergio T. , Sánchez José , Wróbel Małgorzata
Published: November 2019

Given a φ-function φ and k ∈ ℕ, we introduce and study the concept of (φ, k)-variation in the sense of Riesz of a real function on a compact interval. We show that a function u :[a, b] → ℝ has a bounded (φ, k)-variation if and only if u
(

k−

(

k

) belongs to the Orlicz class L φ
[a, b]. We also show that the space generated by this class of functions is a Banach space. Our approach simultaneously generalizes the concepts of the Riesz φ-variation, the de la Vallée Poussin second-variation and the Popoviciu kth variation.

A matter of Motivation - The Effects of Risk Preference and Task Complexity on the Auditor’s Motivation
Authors: Haid Marco , Graschitz Sabine , Heimerl Peter
Published: November 2019

This article examines whether and how several audit-specific attributes influence auditor’s motivation. Following the literature, the research project focuses mainly on the impact of risk preference, task complexity and the liability situation in this issue. A 2x2 mixed-subjects case-based experiment was conducted to gain data for in-depth insights. In sum 209 master students with a major in accounting and auditing participated in the experiment. The results indicate that increased risk aversion leads to a higher observed task motivation. Regarding the task complexity, data analysis shows that increasing task complexity lowers auditor’s motivation. This study contributes to the stream of judgment and decision making literature and offers new insights in to the relationship and dependence of inherent auditor-specific factors.

Authors: Briceño-Balcázar Ignacio , Gómez-Gutiérrez Alberto , Díaz-Dussán Natalia Andrea , Noguera-Santamaría María Claudia , Díaz-Rincón Diego , Casas-Gómez María Consuelo
Published: November 2019

Introduction: The risk of developing breast and ovarian cancer is higher in families that carry mutations in BRCA1 or BRCA2 genes, and timely mutation detection is critical.Objective: To identify the presence of mutations in the Colombian population and evaluate two testing strategies.Methods:  From a total universe of 853 individual blood samples tests referred for BRCA1 and BRCA2 typing, 256 cases were analyzed by complete direct sequencing of both genes in Myriad Genetics, and the remaining 597 cases were studied by partial sequencing based on founder mutations in a PCR test designed by ourselves ("Profile Colombia").Results:   We found 107 patients carrying deleterious mutations in this group of patients, 69 (64.5%) located in BRCA1, and 38 (35.5%) in BRCA2. Overall, we detected 39 previously unreported mutations in Colombia (22 in BRCA1 and 17 in BRCA2) and only 4 out of the 6 previously reported founder mutations. Sixty four out of 597 patients (10.7%) studied by "Profile Colombia" showed mutations in BRCA1 or BRCA2, and 41/256 patients (16%) showed mutations by complete BRCA1-BRCA2 sequencing.Conclusions:  The spectrum of 44 different mutations in Colombia as detected in our study is broader than the one previously reported for this country. "Profile Colombia" is a useful screening test to establish both founder and new mutations (detection rate of 10.7%) in cases with family history of breast cancer. Complete sequencing shows a detection rate of 16.0%, and should complement the study of the genetic basis of this disease.
Zidovudina/Lamivudina vs Abacavir/Lamivudina vs Tenofovir/Emtricitabina en combinaciones de dosis fija como tratamiento inicial en pacientes con VIH: revisión sistemática y metanálisis en red
Authors: Alzate Angel Juan Carlos , Duque Molina Marcela María , García García Héctor Iván
Published: November 2019

Introducción:  El tratamiento inicial de la infección por VIH se basa en el uso de tres medicamentos, dos de ellos inhibidores de transcriptasa reversa análogos de nucleósido. Existen tres combinaciones de estos medicamentos aprobadas por diferentes guías, con resultados divergentes en cuanto a eficacia y seguridad.Objetivo:  Comparar la eficacia y seguridad de las 3 combinaciones. Métodos: Revisión sistemática y metanálisis en red de ensayos clínicos con asignación aleatoria comparando dosis fijas de Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarato/Emtricitabina (TDF/FTC), Abacavir/Lamivudina (ABC/3TC) y Zidovudina/Lamivudina (ZDV/3TC).Resultados:  Siete ensayos clínicos cumplieron los criterios de elegibilidad. Los resultados sugirieron mayor eficacia con TDF/FTC vs ABC/3TC a 96 semanas y vs. ZDV/3TC a 48 semanas. Sin embargo, existe heterogeneidad clínica y estadística. Se realizó análisis de subgrupos por tercer medicamento y por nivel de carga viral previa al tratamiento, sin encontrar diferencias en control virológico. Se pudo realizar metanálisis en red con TDF/FTC vs ZDV/3TC y proporción de pacientes con respuesta virológica, sin diferencias a las 48 semanas ni 96 semanas. Las comparaciones directas evidenciaron mayor riesgo de supresión de médula ósea de ZDV/3TC vs TDF/FTC y de reacciones de hipersensibilidad de ABC/3TC vs ZDV/3TC.Conclusión:  Los resultados no demostraron diferencias en efectividad entre las intervenciones; sin embargo, debido a heterogeneidad en cuanto al tercer medicamento y el tiempo de seguimiento entre los estudios incluidos, dicho resultado no es definitivo. Los resultados plantean la necesidad de realizar nuevos estudios que ayuden a mejorar las recomendaciones de tratamiento en los pacientes infectados por el VIH.
Molar Volume Mismatch: A Malefactor for Irregular Metallic Electrodeposition in Solid Electrolytes
Authors: Mistry Aashutosh , Mukherjee Partha P.
Published: November 2019

Regularizing metallic electrodeposition has been a long-standing challenge in energy storage. Leveraging mechanical stresses, solid ion conductors have been proposed to stabilize the evolving interface. Paradoxically softer electrodepositing metals are often found to form penetration fronts under the hypothesized stable conditions. We find that mechanical contributions to energy of the interacting species (i.e., metal and cation) relate to respective molar volumes. The stresses at the electrodepositing interface are correlated, and consequently, localized deposition is energetically favored for larger cationic molar volumes. Electrolyte stresses cause a stress-driven ionic flux away from compressed locations, which proves to be a stabilizing influence. Stability is found to be nonlinearly related to electrolyte stiffness. Material complexities such as interphases, interlayer, and grain boundaries are also examined to proffer guidelines for a stabilized growth.
Electrochemical Isoperibolic Calorimetry for D2O Electrolysis
Authors: Miles Melvin
Published: November 2019

Equations developed for isoperibolic electrochemical calorimetry were tested for the electrolysis of D2O in an open calorimetric cell. The derivatives of these equations gave correct values within the experimental error range for the important rate of change of the cell temperature with time (dT/dt). In addition, these calorimetric equations were also tested directly in determining the enthalpy change (ΔH) for the D2O electrolysis reaction. The mean experimental value at 298.15 K was ΔH = 294.4 ± 0.3 kJ/mole. This compares favorably (within 0.10%) with the literature value of ΔH = 294.600 kJ/mole. The accuracy of these ΔH measurements could be even further improved by more accurate cell voltage and cell temperature measurement.
Lysosome Targeting Chimeras (LYTACs) for the Degradation of Secreted and Membrane Proteins
Authors: Banik Steven , Pedram Kayvon , Wisnovsky Simon , Riley Nicholas , Bertozzi Carolyn
Published: November 2019

Targeted protein degradation is a powerful strategy to address the canonically undruggable proteome. However, current technologies are limited to targets with cytosolically-accessible and ligandable domains. Here, we designed and synthesized conjugates capable of binding both a cell surface lysosome targeting receptor and the extracellular domain of a target protein. These lysosome targeting chimeras (LYTACs) consist of an antibody fused to agonist glycopeptide ligands for the cation-independent mannose-6-phosphate receptor (CI-M6PR). LYTACs enabled a CRISPRi knockdown screen revealing the biochemical pathway for CI-M6PR-mediated cargo internalization. We demonstrated that LYTACs mediate efficient degradation of Apolipoprotein-E4, epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), CD71, and programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1). LYTACs represent a modular strategy for directing secreted and membrane proteins for degradation in the context of both basic research and therapy.
Measurement of the Impact on the Usability of an iPad Game Developed with a Design Guide Built by Children
Authors: Flores Marin Monica , Pinto Tapia Victor , T Espinoza Salguero María
Published: November 2019

Aim/Purpose: This research is a comparative test between two Human Computer Interaction (HCI) design approaches - Apple versus one informed by child users.

Background: There are studies concerning the creation of graphical interfaces for kids, however, they do not involve them in the design process. On the other hand, operating systems such as Apple or Android impose their graphic guidelines designed only for a general outlook.

Methodology: The research has a scope of exploratory nature, with a mixed approach. For the measurement of usability, tests were developed to determine the degree of efficiency, effectiveness, and satisfaction generated in two versions of the same game. Children between six and eight years of age were targeted for this test.

Contribution: This research compares two design guides to determine which one is better to develop games for children.

Findings: This study concluded that the design guide elaborated by children allowed the building a more efficient, effective, and satisfactory game because the total usability percentage was 89.84%. This percentage was much higher than that obtained using the generic Apple guide, where the percentage of total usability obtained was 78.72%.

Recommendations for Practitioners: Using design guides to develop games for children helps to increase the level of usability for them.

Recommendation for Researchers: These design guides can be used for other devices that have different operating systems as guidelines to develop games for children.

Impact on Society: The future generations of game developers that focus on games for children can take into account the following guidelines to create games that children will enjoy more.

Future Research: Perform usability tests with users of different ages, for example children, adolescents, and adults. It is also suggested to take into account mobile devices with Android operating system.
Melankolinin düşsel zerafeti: Virginia Woolf’un Katı Nesneler başlıklı kısa öyküsünün bir okuması
Authors: ALİYEV Javid
Published: November 2019

Nesnelerin “katı” ve “belirgin” özelliği ile

bilincin “akışkan” doğası arasındaki diyalektik ilişkisellik, modernist

estetiğin epistemolojisini oluşturmakla birlikte, modernist edebiyatın en

önemli temsilcilerinden Virginia Woolf’un yazınsal yaratıcılığını da önemli

ölçüde şekillendirmiştir. Yazınsal perspektifin farklı karakterlerin öznel

bilincinden, empresyonist bir üslupla nesnelerin rengine, dokusuna ve mekansal

ilişkisine dair metaforlarla zengin bir dille betimlemelere değin sürekli

birbirini izlediği Woolf yazınının başarısı, nesnelerin epifanik özellikleri

ile yarattığı modernist karakterlerin duygulanımlarıyla örtüşmesini çok iyi

kavramasından ve bunu yapıtlarında ustalıkla yansıtmasından ileri gelmektedir.

Bu bağlamda, Woolf’un bu çalışmada ele alacağımız Katı Nesneler (Solid

Objects) başlıklı öyküsü özel bir anlam taşımaktadır. Öykü gelecek vadeden

politikacı John’un günün birinde aniden cansız, taş gibi “katı” nesneleri

takıntılı bir halde toplamaya karar vermesi ve bu nesnelerin giderek John’un

bilincini gerek asıl itibarıyla gerekse metaforik olarak “ele geçirerek” yeni

bir gerçeklik oluşturmasından bahsetmektedir. Bu durum

Sigmund Freud’un “Yas ve Melankoli” (1917) metninde ortaya attığı ve daha

sonraki metinlerinde geliştirdiği melankolinin ilksel bir kaybın yol açtığı ve

adeta beyhude bir çabayla yitirilen nesne ile özdeşleşmemizin aslında “cansız

olana geri dönme” dürtümüzü bastırmaya çalıştığımız fikriyle örtüşmektedir.

Bunun yanı sıra, “katı olan her şeyin buharlaştığı”, gündelik hayatın,

değerlerin ve insan ilişkilerinin sürekli değişime uğradığı modernizm ve

akabinde yarattığı kriz ortamı, Julia Kristeva’nın belirttiği gibi “simgesel

olarak kaybı zorunlu kılan” melankolinin sanatsal ifadesi için de elverişli

ortam hazırlamıştır. Modern öncesi dönemin mutlak doğru anlaşıyının yerini

nesnel göreceliliğe bırakması modern özneyi ve dolayısıyla edebiyattaki

modernist karakterleri ontolojik yalnızlığa, varoluşsal sıkışıklığa ve zorunlu

özdüşünümselliğe sürüklemiştir. Benzer şekilde modernist edebiyatın

özdüşünümsellik özelliğini, modernist öznenin önceki “sabit ve bölünmez”

birliğe duyduğu özlemin melankolik bir yansıması olarak da görebiliriz.

Görüldüğü üzere melankoli kavramı modernist edebiyatta bir kaç düzlemde

karşımıza çıkmakta ve özellikle de dikkatle incelediğimiz zaman Woolf’un

külliyatı konuyla ilgili varsıl bir inceleme alanı sunmaktadır. Tüm

söyleneneler ışığında bu çalışmanın amacı modernist edebiyat ve melankolik

estetik ilişkisini Woolf’un Katı Nesneler öyküsü bağlamında inceleyerek

nesne/özne ilişkisi ile melankoli arasındaki organik bağın izini sürmektir. 
Foucault's philosophy in And I and Silence by Naomi Wallace
Authors: BAĞIRLAR Belgin
Published: November 2019

This paper aims to interpret both the female

characters in Naomi Wallace’s play And I and Silence (2011), Jamie and

Dee’s desire to be free and their resistance to power within the framework of

Michel Foucault's Discipline and Punish (1975). Emphasizing concepts

such as power, freedom, and resistance, Foucault advocates that nobody is out

of power for there exists no place absent of power. Furthermore, it is

impossible not to mention freedom wherever there are power and resistance where

freedom exists. Wallace introduces her audience to two female characters who

had been convicted of different crimes and then met in prison. Jamie is African

American while Dee is a white American woman. Both women dream of making a good

life together after being set free. The moment that they do get released, they

deem that they have gotten rid of disciplinary power, and are free. However,

both of them begin to resist as they encounter power again. Characters who feel

the power much more as they resist eventually accept that power is everywhere.

They commit suicide in order to find freedom, regardless whether or not it is

an exact solution. As a result, Wallace effectively reveals the American power

system through her avant-garde play. Wallace's characters, moreover, are

dramatic instances of Foucault's conceptualization of power, freedom, and

resistance. 
Frédéric Beigbeder'nin "Kuzey Kulesi 107. Kat" adlı romanında postmodern unsurlar
Authors: GÜREL Caner
Published: November 2019

Yirminci yüzyılın başından itibaren öncelikle

toplumda, daha sonra felsefede, fizikte, sanatta, mimaride, bilim ve

teknolojide meydana gelen değişimler ile postmodern düşüncenin etkisini birçok

alanda gösterdiği görülmektedir. Modernizmin karşısında postmodernizm, tüm

bilenen ve kabul gören doğruları derinden sarsıcı yapısıyla modernizme ciddi

bir alternatif olarak 1960’lı yıllardan sonra varlığını kabul ettirmektedir.

Tüm bilim dallarını ve disiplinlerini etkisi altına alan postmodernizmin, diğer

sanat dallarını bütünleştiren edebiyat alanında daha çarpıcı bir etkiye sahip

olduğu bilinmektedir. Edebî türler arasında ise en çok etkilenen tür roman

olarak karşımıza çıkmaktadır. Bu anlamda, postmodern romanlarda kullanılan

teknikler ve yöntemler, alışılagelmiş ve geleneksel romanların özelliklerinden

oldukça farklılık göstermektedir. Bu çalışmada, öncelikle postmodernizm

kavramına değinilmekte, postmodern sanat bağlamında postmodern edebiyatın ve

romanın başat özellikleri açıklanmaya çalışılmaktadır. Postmodern söylemin

kuramcılarından Jean Baudrillard ve Jean-François Lyotard’ın görüşlerine yer

verilmektedir. Bu çalışmanın asıl amacı Frédéric Beigbeder’nin “Kuzey Kulesi

107. Kat” adlı romanındaki postmodern unsurları, roman boyunca kullanılan

teknikleri örneklerle ve kullanım yönleriyle ele almaktır. Çok yönlü bakış

açısıyla ele alınan romanda, popüler kültürün toplumdaki etkisi ironik bir

biçimde anlatılmaktadır. Amerikan kültürü kelime oyunlarıyla hicvedilmekte,

cinsellik ve çarpık ilişkiler gözler önüne serilmekte, şehirler, yerler

kıyaslanmakta, mekânlar arası göndermeler yapılmakta, olaylara farklı bakış

Les rêveries du promeneur solitaire de J. J. Rousseau, traitées de point de vue phonosémantique
Authors: ANTONİOU Maria
Published: November 2019

Selon la thèse de Platon qui attribue la création

des mots à la conjonction des sons chacun des qui porte une signification,

Marchand offre une liste contenant les phonesthèmes de l’anglais, expliquant

quels sons attribuent prolongation, vivacité, etc. Entre autres scientifiques,

des linguistes ont mené des recherches : Bloomfield, Jespersen, Sapir,

Firth, Jakobson, Ultan, Magnus. Tous les travaux de ces chercheurs font partie

du champ énorme de la Phonosémantique, toujours ouverte à plus de recherches.

Etudiés d’un point de vue contrastif entre deux ou plusieurs langues, les

résultants s’avèrent de loin plus intéressants. Le but de cet article consiste

à offrir des aspects sur la répétitions des sons dans Les Rêveries du promeneur solitaire de Rousseau et la manière avec

laquelle certains phénomènes sont transmis en grec. C’est un truisme de

soutenir que les jeux avec les sons (explicites ou implicites) s’avèrent d’une

importance majeure dans une œuvre littéraire. Nous essaierons de démontrer

comment ces phénomènes sont traités en langue source et  langue cible. Nous nous appuyons sur des

traductions attestées, visant à une analyse approfondie des choix linguistiques

faits ainsi qu’à la manière de transmission des effets esthétiques de

l’original en français. Le traducteur, que fait-il afin d’inculquer les effets stylistiques aux lecteurs

grecs ? Y a-t-il des cas où il est impossible de produire les mêmes effets

phonosémantiques en grec ? Si tel est le cas, que fait le traducteur, afin de

compenser les éventuelles pertes ?

VIH y políticas preventivas en Chile. La importancia de la enunciación en la intervención desde Trabajo Social
Authors: Vilches Estefanía
Published: November 2019

El Virus de Inmunodeficiencia Humana se detectó en Chile en los años ochenta y solo en 2017 más de 6.000 chilenos fueron notificados como portadores (Ministerio de Salud, 2017). A pesar de los esfuerzos llevados a cabo, tanto por las entidades de gobierno como por las organizaciones de la sociedad civil, el porcentaje de personas viviendo con VIH o SIDA en Chile se ha mantenido creciente. Este aumento progresivo no ha logrado ser controlado por las políticas preventivas y sigue siendo un importante problema de la salud pública.La propuesta argumentativa del presente artículo apela por modificar la enunciación para empoderar socialmente a los individuos que sufren agravio moral, buscando cambiar la atención de la intervención en el sujeto por la atención en el sistema, esperando así establecer una ruptura, en la que se observe y nombre de forma emancipadora desde el concepto autesiano de “déficit enunciativo”. Lo que se busca construir desde la praxis en la lebenswelt colonizada por el ethos neoliberal, es la búsqueda por visibilizar relaciones de poder, dominación y opresión que reducen a la sociedad, posicionando así críticamente a la disciplina desde la lógica de la negatividad, para buscar un giro en la noción de intervención preventiva.
Dialogiueness and Conversationality in the Lyrics of A.A. Voznesensky (Based on the Poem «Proshchanie s Politehnicheskim»)
Authors: Kolokol’tseva T. N.
Published: November 2019

This article provides a linguopoetic analysis of the poem by A.A. Voznesensky «Proshhanie s Politehnicheskim». The focus is on the means of creating dialogueness and conversationality, which obtained a vivid and diverse embodiment in this work. The category of dialogueness is realized both at the composition level (the main part of the text is the dialogue of the lyrical character with the audience of the Polytechnic Museum and the museum itself) and the level of the figurative component (rhetorical appeal and rhetorical exclamation). The category of conversationality is manifested using numerous colloquial elements, primarily lexical and syntactic.
Imperative Forms with the Meaning of Obligation
Authors: Nikolina N. A.
Published: November 2019

This article sets out to analyse forms of the imperative mood, which bear the indirect meaning of obligation. The aim is to characterise the structure and semantics of phrases, in which quasi-imperative forms are used. This analysis determines the direction of grammatical transposition and its nature. It is suggested that the imperative forms with the meaning of obligation are interpretative in nature and indirectly reflect the alleged expression of will. The analysis uses descriptive and structural-semantic methods. The semantic groups of clauses that include the imperative mood forms under consideration are distinguished. The features of the use of imperative forms with the meaning of obligation in the modern Russian language are described.

Analisis Portofolio Investasi dengan Metode Multi Objektif
Authors: Primajati Gilang , Amrullah Ahmad Zuli , Ahmad Ahmad
Published: November 2019

In the formation of an efficient portfolio, many methods can be used. Of course with its own assumptions and advantages. In the process, reasonable investor assumptions tend to be risk averse. Investors who are risk averse are investors who, when faced with two investments with the same expected return, will choose an investment with a lower risk level. If an investor has several efficient portfolio choices, then the most optimal portfolio will be chosen. Optimal portfolio with mean-variance efficient portfolio criteria, investors only invest in risky assets. Investors do not include risk free assets in their portfolios. Mean-variance efficient portfolio is defined as a portfolio that has a minimum variance among all possible portfolio that can be formed, at the mean level of the same expected return. The mean variant method of the two constraints can be used as a basis in determining the optimal portfolio weight by minimizing the risk of portfolio return with two constraints. In this article the problem referred to is symbolized by lamda and beta. With this two-constraint method, the results obtained are more detailed so that they can describe the results of a sharper analysis for an investor.

Rapid Assessment and Ground Truthing of Habitat Composition and Analysis of Semi-Natural Habitat Diversity of Proposed Greenway Developments
Authors: Carlier Julien , Moran James
Published: November 2019

Across Europe, Greenways upcycle disused railway infrastructure into non-motorised public infrastructure, often with limited consideration to potential ecological synergies. Pre-development, disused transport corridors become relatively undisturbed and potentially host diverse semi-natural habitats. The study objectives were 1) to produce a highly detailed and accurate dataset using remote sensing with rapid assessment techniques for ground truthing and 2) subsequently examine habitat diversity existing along a proposed Greenway. A 7000 ha study corridor was based on a disused railway proposed as a transfrontier Greenway connecting the Republic of Ireland and the United Kingdom. The study applied a rapid-assessment virtual validation techniquealongside remote sensing and accuracy assessment. Inter-relationship between seminatural habitat diversity and land-use intensification was examined. Remote sensing accuracies of 89% and 99% for a real and linear habitat classification were obtained. Degrees of land-use intensification were observed throughout the corridor, highlighting the importance of maintaining and enhancing remaining semi-natural habitat that exists along the proposed Greenway route. Through understanding the landscape matrix composition and semi-natural habitat diversity, European Greenwayscan achieve multi-functionality for ecosystem conservation, forming integral components of Green Infrastructure.
Tourism Geography: the state, vectors and current trends in the XXI century

Published: November 2019

Geography operates a powerful arsenal of methodological analysis and synthesis of spatial phenomena and processes based on established natural and social organization geospace, so is able to provide the most thorough scientific interpretation of the phenomenon of tourism. A separate direction of the scientific studies – geography of tourism was formed in geographical science. A systematic study of geographical science recreation and tourism is the first half of the twentieth century. During this time a significant number of original conceptual and theoretical and methodological approaches and areas of study of the geographical aspects of leisure person were drafted. The critical review of the current state of tourism geography, the latest achievements of the leading scientific schools of tourism geography are highlighted. Now the spectrum of studies on the tourism geography covers all manifestations and processes of deployment of hundreds of varieties of leisure and social activity in space. For example, the studios of tourism geography have recently gained ground. Such directions of the world geography as the “wine tourism geography”, “geography of SPA-tourism” and so on, that are exotic for the geographers of Ukraine, gain the further specification with appearing dozens of new articles and a number of individual books. Ukrainian school presented a rather limited number of scientists and publications among the national European schools of the tourism geography. Main bunch of scientists, who develop provisions of the tourism geography, is concentrated in Kyiv. Scientists, representing regional geographic centres of science and education, make a great contribution to the formation of Ukrainian national school of the tourism geography. Considerable (but, unfortunately, mentioned and quoted outside Ukraine) achievements in the field of the tourism geography today were made by scientists from Lviv, Uzhgorod, Chernivtsi, Ivano-Frankivsk, Ternopil, Nizhyn, Dnipropetrovsk and Odesa. The current level of tourism geography in Ukraine is outlined; its object, subject, links with other relevant sciences and actual areas of subject differentiation are formulated. Key words: tourism geography, object, subject, vectors and trends of development.
