¿Psicólogos y psicólogas sesgados? Sesgos de confirmación y representatividad en estudiantes universitarios de psicología
Authors: Prada Murillo Irene , Arroyo Zúñiga Daniel , Aguilar Paniagua Abril
Published: November 2022

La presencia de sesgos cognitivos ha sido identificada como una problemática con múltiples consecuencias dentro de la población de profesionales en psicología, por ejemplo en el área clínica. Esta investigación indagó en el nivel de sesgos de representatividad y confirmación en una muestra de estudiantes universitarios de psicología (n = 65). Para ello, se aplicó un cuestionario en línea que contenía dos tareas: una para evaluar el sesgo de representatividad y otra para evaluar el sesgo de confirmación, así como una prueba de personalidad. Los resultados sugieren que el avance en la carrera universitaria no parece afectar el nivel de sesgo reportado por los participantes. Sin embargo, se encontraron diferencias estadísticamente significativas en los niveles de sesgo por género y lugar de residencia. Las mujeres presentaron un mayor nivel de sesgo de representatividad y las personas residentes de zona urbana un mayor nivel de sesgo de confirmación. Se discute la relevancia de los resultados obtenidos y se hipotetizan posibles factores asociados. Se incluye, además, una revisión de posibles intervenciones ante la problemática estudiada.

Exosomes from bone mesenchymal stem cells alleviate mifepristone-induced human endometrial stromal cell injury by inhibiting TLR3 via delivering miR-941
Authors: Wang Yu , Sun Xiaofei , Yang Qing , Yin Lili
Published: November 2022

Objective

We aim to investigate the protective effect and underlying mechanisms of BMSCs-exo on human endometrial stromal cells (HESCs) induced by mifepristone in this study.

Methods

BMSCs-exo were extracted and then identified by transmission electron microscopy and western-blot assay. RT-PCR assay was used to determine the level of miR-941. MiR-941 mimics or inhibitor were transfected into BMSCs and the exosomes were extracted. Then, Cell activity, apoptosis rate, cell migration and invasion, as well as the expression of angiogenic proteins were determined in HESCs stimulated by mifepristone and BMSCs-exo. Next, Dual-luciferase reporting assay was used to verify the targeted binding of miR-941 to TLR3, and the TLR3 expression in HESCs was detected by RT-PCR and western-blot. Finally, TLR3 was overexpressed to evaluate the effects of miR-941 from BMSCs-exo on cell apoptosis, cell invasion and angiogenesis in HESCs induced by mifepristone.

Results

miR-941 was highly expressed in BMSCs-exo. Exosome miR-941 in BMSCs-exo inhibited the cell apoptosis, and promoted cell activity, cell migration, invasion as well as angiogenesis were also improved in HESCs induced by mifepristone. TLR3 was a target of miR-941, which was up-regulated in mifepristonetreated HESCs. We further found that miR-941 derived from BMSCs-exo down-regulated the expression of TLR3 in HESCs treated by mifepristone. In addition, TLR3 overexpression blocked the inhibition of miR-941 on mifepristone-induced cell apoptosis, as well as cell migration and angiogenesis in HESCs.

Conclusions

Thus, we concluded that BMSCs-exo has protective effect on mifepristone-induced cell damage by delivering miR-941 which targeted TLR3 and regulated cell activity, migration, and angiogenesis in HESCs.

Authors: Cao Dung Thi Phuong , Pho Phuong Dzung , Dang Nguyen Anh Chi
Published: November 2022

The present study investigates collocational profiles that appear in the English textbook series for Vietnamese students from elementary to high school grades by identifying how the series covers collocations in terms of frequency and how the mode of collocation presentation aligns with recommendations in the existing literature. A total of 30,005 collocations of both verb-noun and adjective-noun patterns were identified, of which 1,078 are targeted collocations. The study found that the frequencies of occurrences of collocation tokens increase steadily alongside the three grade levels, while the frequencies of collocation types are not distributed proportionately. As for the mode of collocation presentation, targeted collocations and collocation exercises follow the best practices recommended in the literature to a certain extent and in some criteria; inconsistency, however, was found to be one of the shortcomings across those evaluation criteria. Pedagogical implications for teachers and textbook authors are discussed.
EFFECTS OF ADDITIVE EXTENSIVE READING ON STRUGGLING THAI UNIVERSITY LEARNERS
Authors: Dhanarattigannon Jiraporn
Published: November 2022

Extensive reading with graded readers has been proved to be an approach that helps learners improve their reading ability. However, only a few studies have explored the effects of additive extensive reading with other types of reading materials on struggling EFL learners. This study investigated the effects of Science and Research Association Reading Laboratory (SRA) and Reading Reflective Journals (RRJ) as additive extensive reading activities on struggling EFL tertiary students’ English reading ability and performance. This study was a comparative mixed-methods approach conducted at a Thai university over 15 weeks. The students were two intact groups enrolled in a reading course taught by the researcher. One group was assigned to SRA, and the other to RRJ. Data were collected by means of English reading pre- and post-tests, students’ reflective journals, and an open-ended questionnaire. Both quantitative and qualitative results indicate that SRA and RRJ positively impact students’ reading ability, their attitudes towards English reading, and their knowledge. Since SRA and RRJ are based on different theories, each has its limitations. The combined activity of SRA and RRJ features is suggested. The factors affecting the use of additive ER should also be considered when implementing any type of ER.
METAPHORS AS TRAILS OF UNIVERSITY ENGLISH LANGUAGE INSTRUCTORS’ PERCEPTIONS ABOUT EMERGENCY REMOTE TEACHING IN TURKEY
Authors: Ekoç Arzu
Published: November 2022

The COVID-19 pandemic brought life to an unexpected halt, and all levels of education including higher education had abrupt changes from face-to-face teaching to emergency remote teaching to sustain the continuity of education. English preparatory schools that provide newly-enrolled university students with one-year intensive English language program are no exception with regard to emergency remote teaching. Metaphor elicitation can be one of the ways to reveal university language instructors’ subtle thoughts about emergency remote teaching. In line with this idea, this paper investigates the use of metaphors elicited from 60 university instructors from different universities in Turkey in relation to emergency remote teaching. After the analysis, 58 valid metaphors were recompiled and classified under six categories. It was identified that instructors found emergency remote teaching quite challenging and dynamic in nature while only a small number of instructors considered it a positive experience. It was also evident in the instructors’ metaphors that they felt inadequate and untrained when they had this abrupt change at first and perceived emergency remote teaching as an unreal experience. Given the fact that there can be emergency situations in the future, we should move on after taking the necessary lessons from this challenging period.
IRANIAN EFL TEACHERS’ EXPECTATIONS AND PERCEPTIONS ABOUT TEACHER CLASSROOM JUSTICE TRAINING
Authors: Estaji Masoomeh , Zhaleh Kiyana
Published: November 2022

This study explores language teachers’ perceptions about receiving training on the main aspects of classroom justice. A group of 77 Iranian English as a foreign language (EFL) teachers, chosen through maximum variation sampling, completed a demographic informational scale and an open-ended classroom justice questionnaire. The data were analyzed through MAXQDA software, taking an interactive (i.e., both deductive and inductive) approach to content analysis. The research results reveal that the teachers mainly (1) had no prior experience of receiving classroom justice training; (2) approved the essentiality of EFL teachers’ being trained for the rudimental elements of classroom justice; (3) expected to learn more about the different dimensions, principles, and domains of classroom justice in teacher justice training courses; and (4) had positive attitudes toward the usefulness of classroom justice training for enhancing teachers’ pedagogical knowledge, skills, and practices. These results can encourage L2 policymakers and teacher educators to inculcate training courses on theory and practice of classroom justice into L2 teacher education programs with the prospect of empowering teachers to implement justice in their classroom behaviors and ultimately, increase their professional effectiveness.
FACEBOOK AS A PROMOTIONAL TOOL FOR LEARNER AUTONOMY: THAI PRE-SERVICE EFL TEACHERS’ VOICES
Authors: Inpeng Sunisa , Nomnian Singhanat
Published: November 2022

Facebook has not only opened up new opportunities for social networking, but has also been recognized as an educational tool for language learning beyond the classroom. However, little is known as to what extent Facebook can promote learner autonomy among English as a foreign language (EFL) pre-service teachers (PSTs). This study explores the voices of EFL PSTs with regard to their use of Facebook as a tool for promoting their autonomy in learning English, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. Drawing upon Betts and Kercher’s (1996) Autonomous Learner Model (ALM), this study gained deeper insights into the EFL PSTs’ attitudes, perceptions, and ideas concerning the opportunities and challenges Facebook offers them. This qualitative study was based on a purposive sampling of twenty EFL PSTs from a university in northern Thailand. The findings reveal that Thai EFL PSTs experienced all five dimensions of ALM, namely, orientation, individual development, enrichment, seminars, and in-depth study. They also viewed learning English on Facebook positively during the lockdowns since they simultaneously acquired English and enjoyed edutainment resources despite some limitations concerning this platform. Pedagogical implications of this study suggest that Facebook is a suitable platform for ELT professional development and life-long learning, particularly amid the global disruption caused by COVID-19.

Published: November 2022

This multi-year study which took place in 2019-2021 aims to design a literacy e-coaching model for EFL Junior High School teachers in Indonesia in support of the government-initiated school-based literacy movement program. The study involved 150 English as a Foreign Language (EFL) teachers from 16 provinces in Indonesia in the need analysis part, 12 teachers in the module development part and 41 teachers in the implementation part. Two kinds of modules were developed during the study, namely: (1) a literacy enrichment module to reinforce the participants’ literacy content knowledge; and (2) a literacy learning module to enhance the participants’ competence in teaching literacy. Afterwards, two coaching cycles using the modules were implemented. The coaching cycles were designed by adapting the coaching models from Rogers and Rogers (2007) and Trinh et al. (2011), as well as adopting the Sheltered Instruction Observation Protocol (2017) model. Data was collected from questionnaires, tests, observations, videos, expert judgment, and discussion groups and analyzed using model validation, descriptive and inferential statistics. The study found that the literacy e-coaching model enhanced the participants’ competences in literacy teaching, as the results demonstrated the amalgamation of the models to be effective.

Authors: Neupane Bharat Prasad , Gnawali Laxman , Kafle Hem Raj
Published: November 2022

Amidst the recent surge in English language teacher identity research, this article systematically reviews existing research studies (n=30) conducted on English language teacher identity across English as a foreign language (EFL), English as a second language (ESL), and native English-speaking contexts that employed narrative inquiry as its methodology. Employing Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) framework, the systematic review identifies major themes on teacher professional identity classifying articles on three broad stages of professional development from student teachers’ identity negotiation to novice teachers’ identity development and experienced teachers’ and teacher educators’ identity construction. It reveals that English language teachers’ identity is influenced by their practice in learning communities in varying contexts, macro factors like gender, race, ideology and discourse, critical incidents and agency, conflicting emotions, teacher education programs, and imagined identity and investing. In addition, the article offers a critical assessment of narrative inquiry in language teacher identity and gives suggestions for future research. Finally, it proposes a preliminary framework on the trajectory of identity construction and its implications for English language curriculum and teacher development.

Authors: Roohani Ali , Shafiee Rad Hanieh
Published: November 2022

This study investigated the effectiveness of the hybrid-flipped classroom model in improving English-as-a-Foreign-Language (EFL) learners’ argumentative writing skill. Also, it evaluated the model as a means of learning argumentative writing skill. To these ends, the sample of 50 EFL learners from a language institute were selected after taking a language placement test and were assigned to control (conventional) and experimental (hybrid-flipped) groups. To collect the data, pretest and posttest argumentative essays as well as semistructured interviews were used. ANCOVA on the writing scores in the prestest and posttest phase showed that using the hybrid-flipped instruction had a significant effect on the learners’ argumentative writing performance. Moreover, thematic analysis on the qualitative interview data revealed several benefits of hybrid-flipped method such as learner-teacher and learner to learner interaction, increased learners’ responsibility, easy makeup for learners’ absence, and teacher assistance. The findings suggest the applicability of hybrid-flipped method for teaching L2 writing.
ENGLISH LANGUAGE PRE-SERVICE TEACHERS’ SENSE OF PREPAREDNESS FOR TEACHING: AN INDONESIAN CASE
Authors: Tutyandari Caecilia
Published: November 2022

A sense of preparedness for teaching is an essential factor in the field of teacher preparation as it is a crucial construct in pre-service teachers’ professional growth towards becoming accomplished teachers. Accordingly, this paper aims to explore pre-service English language teachers’ sense of preparedness for teaching within Indonesian contexts. A cohort of final-year students of a university-based English language teacher program in Yogyakarta was included as the participants. In this mixed-methods study, an online questionnaire and interview were the research instruments employed to collect the data. There were 106 students responding to the questionnaire and 31 students participating in the interviews. Findings showed that the pre-service teachers’ levels of preparedness varied according to the teaching tasks. Based on the survey, the task of technology integration obtained the highest score. This implies that the participants appeared to feel comfortable with using technology in their teaching practices. However, their overall sense of preparedness indicated lower confidence. The interview results provide further explanation of the survey findings. The descriptive analysis revealed some key issues, including academic and personal factors, which potentially influenced pre-service teachers’ sense of preparedness for teaching.
INVESTIGATING LEARNER PREFERENCES FOR WRITTEN CORRECTIVE FEEDBACK IN A THAI HIGHER EDUCATION CONTEXT
Authors: Jinowat Nattwut , Wiboolyasarin Watcharapol
Published: November 2022

The current study investigated EFL learners’ preferences for written corrective feedback (WCF) and the rationale for their preferences. A mixed-methods approach, combining quantitative and qualitative data collection, was used to explore this phenomenon. The data were collected using an internet-based questionnaire and a semi-structured interview. The questionnaire was utilized to gather quantitative information from 93 Thai EFL students at a Bangkok-based Rajabhat University, while the interview collected qualitative data from ten respondents who were willing to be interviewed. The findings indicated that Thai EFL undergraduate students, on the whole, appreciated receiving WCF in several forms. The most desired type of WCF was direct feedback, while feedback given to learners regarding global errors was not favourable. Additionally, the rationale for the students’ WCF preferences included: 1) clarity of feedback in pointing out the grammatical errors and the proper forms; 2) feedback resulting in improvement of the written text in the amended version; and 3) feedback resulting in better writing scores. The outcomes of this study may encourage Thai EFL teachers, as well as teachers in similar EFL situations, to deliver more precise types of WCF on learners’ faults in writing and utilise a chosen WCF method to involve students in learning to write
Fair in the Eyes of Others
Authors: Shams Parham , Beynier Aurélie , Bouveret Sylvain , Maudet Nicolas
Published: November 2022

Envy-freeness is a widely studied notion in resource allocation, capturing some aspects of fairness. The notion of envy being inherently subjective though, it might be the case that an agent envies another agent, but that from the other agents' point of view, she has no reason to do so. The difficulty here is to define the notion of objectivity, since no ground-truth can properly serve as a basis of this definition. A natural approach is to consider the judgement of the other agents as a proxy for objectivity. Building on previous work by Parijs (who introduced "unanimous envy") we propose the notion of approval envy: an agent ai experiences approval envy towards aj if she is envious of aj, and sufficiently many agents agree that this should be the case, from their own perspectives. Another thoroughly studied notion in resource allocation is proportionality. The same variant can be studied, opening natural questions regarding the links between these two notions. We exhibit several properties of these notions. Computing the minimal threshold guaranteeing approval envy and approval non-proportionality clearly inherits well-known intractable results from envy-freeness and proportionality, but (i) we identify some tractable cases such as house allocation; and (ii) we provide a general method based on a mixed integer programming encoding of the problem, which proves to be efficient in practice. This allows us in particular to show experimentally that existence of such allocations, with a rather small threshold, is very often observed.

Authors: Rincon Pabon Juan Pablo , Meesters Roland J
Published: November 2022

OBJECTIVES: Validation and application of a fit-for-purpose PK assay used for quantitative analysis of acetaminophen in whole blood applying volumetric absorptive microsampling using MITRA® devices. METHODS: MITRA® devices were evaluated using whole blood samples prepared at different hematocrit values. PK assay parameters precision, accuracy, linearity, LOD, LLOQ, ULOQ, carry-over, and stability of analyte in dried whole blood on MITRA® device were validated following EMA guidelines. Acetaminophen was quantified by LC-HRMS. MITRA® devices were used on selected timepoints post-dose to collect capillary blood after finger prick. Acetaminophen was extracted using methanol containing acetaminophen-d4. RESULTS: Adsorbed whole blood volume ranged from 9.79 ± 0.18, 9.95 ± 0.34, and 10.10 ± 0.48 µL for 20, 45 and 65 % hematocrit. Highest intra-day precision and accuracy were 11.4 % CV and -19.7 %bias at 1 µg/ml. Highest inter-day precision and accuracy were 12.3% CV and -18.8 %bias at 1 µg/mL. Measuring range was 1-25 µg/mL and LOD of 0.30 µg/mL. ACP was stable on Mitra® device tip for up to 4 weeks. Obtained results from the pharmacokinetic study were not significantly different to parameters reported in the literature using plasma samples. CONCLUSIONS: MITRA® devices have a great potential use as an alternative whole blood collection device in comparison with other blood sampling techniques or devices.

Published: November 2022

This paper aims to quantify and compare the losses of two isolated water supply systems with similar characteristics (Canarinho e Benjamin Sodré), located in the Metropolitan Region of Belém, state of Pará, Amazonia-Brazil. The methods included diagnosis of systems, technical documental and commercial surveys from the water supply utility, outflow measurements (ultrasound portable outflow measurer and pitometer type equipment with transductor and data logger), statistical treatment of data and determination of the loss indexes of the water supply systems. The high Distribution Network Loss Index recorded of Canarinho and Benjamin Sodré with 81.98% and 70.04% respectively, jointly observed with Connection Losses Index values ​(3.2 and 7.3 times higher, respectively, compared to the national average) increased the Water Meter Index of the studied systems (Canarinho with 84.66% and Benjamin Sodré with 70.93%). The high water loss rates are a characteristic of the northern region of Brazil and are reflected in the data obtained from the studied systems. Losses of this magnitude make systems economically unsustainable due to frauds, lack of maintenece and a poor quality or degradation of infrastructure.

Authors: Costa Maria Carolina dos Santos , Salcedo Rosio Fernández Baca
Published: November 2022

In the current global context, where the population is facing Covid-19, a highly contagious respiratory disease, the main recommendation to avoid the transmission of the virus is to continue isolating oneself at home. Thus, every residence needs to have the necessary conditions to carry out social isolation and the initial treatment of Covid-19 in coordination with the family's daily activities. The issue is that not all housing can meet these new needs. The research aims to analyze whether the types of housing in the Gimenes Housing Complex, located in the city of Penápolis-SP, meet the socio-physical needs of residents in times of the Covid-19 pandemic. The method applied was the dialogic architecture, which relates the object of study (types of housing) to its context (Gimenes Housing Complex and Gimenes Neighbourhood), according to the dimensions of housing construction and users' perception. A questionnaire was applied to families, the results of which indicated that the types of housing at Gimenes do not meet most of the parameters of social isolation indicated by the Ministry of Health.
The role of Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) in the creation and maintenance of innovation ecosystems in cities – the case of Centro Universitário Cidade Verde (UniCV)
Authors: Favero Marcela Bortotti , Silva Patrícia Rodrigues da
Published: November 2022

This article discusses the role of higher education institutions in creating and maintaining innovation ecosystems in cities. The same is justified because innovation is key to the development of smart and sustainable cities, and the Educational Institution is responsible for training professionals able to innovate, thus contributing to the improvement of cities. The work, of a qualitative nature, being the research of the exploratory and descriptive type, was carried out through the strategy of the case study of Smart Space - Environment of Innovation of the Centro Universitário Cidade Verde (UniCV), based in the city of Maringá-PR. As a result, it was identified that the innovation environment promotes several actions to promote and train entrepreneurship and innovation, serving students at different stages of interest in entrepreneurship, such as those curious, with entrepreneurial profiles and entrepreneurs. From the above, we understand that the studied environment contributes to the training of professionals with a keen eye for innovation, who will be able to act within organizations solving problems (intrapreneurship) or opening new businesses. In both cases, these professionals will contribute to local development and also, in the search for solutions for urban development, ratifying the relevance of HEIs in the creation and maintenance of innovation ecosystems in cities.

In this context, the relation among legislation, urban policy and the maneuvers carried out by the real estate market with the public authorities and regulatory bodies is discussed.
Неравномерно-районированная модель города: истоки — развитие применение — влияние
Authors: Гостев Максимилиан
Published: November 2022

Статья посвящена неравномерно-районированной модели пространственной организации города, автором которой является Александр Аркадьевич Высоковский. В системе его взглядов на профессиональную деятельность неравномерно-районированная модель должна была послужить фокусом, вокруг которого происходит реформация градостроительства во всех его аспектах — теории, практики, образования. Цель статьи — проследить, каким именно образом эволюционировала неравномерно-районированная модель и какие инструменты градостроительного проектирования предлагала в процессе своего развития в контексте меняющихся социально-экономических условий. Такое рассмотрение, помимо всего прочего, позволит определить истоки модели: в частности, прослеживается преемственность неравномернорайонированной модели по отношению к каркасно-тканевой модели города А. Э. Гутнова. В первую очередь воспроизводятся основные теоретические положения неравномерно-районированной модели города и оцениваются исходные положения основанных на ней проектов пространственного развития, которые были реакцией на советскую градостроительную традицию: проектирование от сложившейся ситуации, полицентричность, включение связевых элементов. Далее выявляются основные этапы развития модели в контексте меняющихся проблем и задач градостроительного проектирования. Выделяются этапы: возникновение инструмента пространственного экстраполяционного прогнозирования инерционной застройки; формирование неравномерно-районированной модели как развитие положений каркасно-тканевой модели; развитие алгоритмически-математической компоненты модели; переход к вернакулярной модели города.Особое внимание уделяется вкладу применения неравномерно-районированной модели в становление практики правового зонирования российских городов, поскольку именно ее применение в подготовке так называемого генерализированного зонирования позволило относительно быстро подготавливать картографические материалы новых Правил землепользования и застройки. В завершение оценивается влияние положений модели на выстраивание логики правового регулирования градостроительной деятельности в целом, неявно заложенной в Градостроительный кодекс 2004 года, — не только на правовое зонирование, но и на территориальное планирование и градостроительное нормирование.

Вообразить инновации*
Authors: Зукин Шарон
Published: November 2022

Профессор Шарон Зукин показывает, как новая городская экономика формируется предприятиями и организациями, работающими в сфере цифровых технологий, городскими властями и технофинансовой меритократией. Внимательно рассматривая «инновации» в НьюЙорке с момента падения экономики города в результате краха доткомов в 2000 году до его становления как второй по величине экосистемы стартапов в 2010-х годах, статья исследует возникновение новых организационных, географических и дискурсивных пространств, которые буквально укореняют цифровое производство на конкретном месте, формируя технически компетентную рабочую силу, государственночастные некоммерческие партнерства и агрессивную предпринимательскую культуру. Анализируя связи между локальными сетями и глобальным капиталом, статья показывает, как модель инноваций Кремниевой долины урбанизируется в крупных городах, таких как Нью-Йорк, где влиятельный альянс между деловыми кругами, городской властью и руководством университетов напоминает о сильном понятии властвующей элиты, предложенном Чарльзом Райтом Миллсом. Парадоксально, но в то время как экономика XXI века делает города более успешными, они также становятся менее пригодными для жизни тех, кто не в состоянии пожинать плоды технологических инноваций.
Кто принимает решения в умном городе
Authors: Хестанов Руслан , Сувалко Александр
Published: November 2022

Статья посвящена распространенному, но чрезвычайно расплывчатому концепту умного города (smart city). Он представляет собой визионерскую проекцию, вокруг которой создается эклектичный ансамбль зачастую противоречивых теоретических установок и доктрин, так или иначе связывающих городское развитие с развитием технологий, в особенности цифровых. Утверждается, что работа британского кибернетика Гордона Паска над теорией «эстетически заряженных сред» проливает свет на ключевой аспект в проблематике умного города. Паск подчеркивает фундаментальную взаимозависимость проблемы контроля и эмоционального взаимодействия человека с окружающей урбанистической, насыщенной техникой средой, которая до сих пор остается слепым пятном для большинства исследователей проблематики умного города. Критический анализ современных подходов к умному городу позволяет показать, что существует два важнейших условия успеха политики умного города: 1) растущее разнообразие алгоритмов, конкуренция между техническими устройствами; 2) не столько полная или тотальная цифровизация или создание технологического «каркаса», сколько проектирование города как технологической среды с мощным эмоциональным потенциалом. Авторы статьи считают, что эмоциональное и культурно-эстетическое измерение — это лишь едва намеченное направление будущих исследований умного города, цифровых технологий и техники.
Неравномерное развитие Москвы в контексте сложившейся пространственной структуры постсоциалистического мегаполиса
Authors: Городничев Антон , Скребкова Елена
Published: November 2022

Москва, будучи одним из крупнейших мегаполисов Европы и мира, в последние 30 лет прошла длинный путь трансформации от столицы коммунистического государства до глобального капиталистического города, одной из крупнейших городских экономик европейского континента. Постсоциалистический транзит городского пространства, очевидно, еще не закончился, а наследие градостроительной политики советского прошлого еще долгое время будет определять облик города. В фокусе внимания авторов — проблема того, что неравенство в городе влияет на качество городской среды и жизненные шансы горожан, особенно тех, кто проживает на сегрегированных или периферийных территориях. Они исходят из гипотезы, что современная Москва наследует и закрепляет сложившиеся в социалистическом прошлом паттерны пространственного неравенства. Для проверки выдвинутой гипотезы был поставлен исследовательский вопрос: «Как структурированы пространства неравенства в Москве?». Методология исследования основана на пространственном анализе данных (демографической статистики жилых домов Москвы и сведений об объектах коммерческой застройки, размещении объектов обслуживания, стоимости жилой недвижимости, а также исторической статистики). В результате исследования выделены кластеры пространственного неравенства Москвы, проведена оценка качества городской среды в этих кластерах, дана их сравнительная оценка. Анализ демографической статистики позволил выявить паттерны расселения профессиональных групп: учителей, врачей, деятелей культуры, работников ЖКХ и транспорта. Сопоставление современных данных с исторической статистикой показало наличие еще с советского периода устойчивых паттернов разделения города на центр-периферию, обусловленных пространственной организацией города. Авторы также выявили существование значимой срединной зоны города, которая по качеству среды хоть и уступает центру, но превосходит периферию, представленную позднесоветской микрорайонной застройкой. При этом пятиэтажный жилой фонд, который расположен как в периферийной части Москвы, так и в срединной части города, отличается от более поздних микрорайонов более качественной городской средой.
