Feline squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is currently treated with surgery, radiation therapy and electrochemotherapy (ECT). Both the efficacy and/or safety of ECT were evaluated as a sole therapy with bleomycin to treat feline nasal planum SCC (npSCC). Sixty-one cats were enrolled. Local treatment response was evaluated as complete remission (CR), partial remission (PR) or stable disease (SD). Recurrence rate (RR), disease-free interval (DFI) and progression free survival (PFS) were calculated. A six-point scale was used for ECT toxicity. The median tumor size was 1.5 cm. CR was achieved in 65.6% of cases, PR in 31.1% and SD in 3.3%. The overall response rate was 96.7%, RR was 22.5%, median DFI was 136 days, and median PFS was 65.5 days. ECT toxicity was ≤2 in 51% of cats. Tumor recurrence/progression (p = 0.014) and local treatment response (PR: p < 0.001; SD: p < 0.001) influenced survival time. Cats with toxicity >2 showed a higher probability of tumor recurrence/progression. Tumor-related death was higher in cats with PR (p < 0.001) and recurrence/progression (p = 0.002), in ECT treatment with 1 Hz (p = 0.035) and 1200 V/cm (p = 0.011) or 1300 V/cm (p = 0.016). Tumor size influenced local treatment response (p = 0.008) and toxicity (p < 0.001). ECT is an effective treatment for feline npSCCs and should be considered as the first-line procedure for low-stage tumors.
Air Diffusion and Velocity Characteristics of Self-Aerated Developing Region in Flat Chute Flows
Authors: Song Liaochao , Deng Jun , Wei Wangru
Published: March 2021

Self-aerated flows in flat chutes are encountered downstream of the bottom outlet, in spillways with a small slope and in storm waterways. In the present study, the development of self-aeration in flat chute flow is described and new experiments are performed in a long flat chute with a pressure outlet for different flow discharge rates. The distribution of air concentration, time mean velocity and velocity fluctuation in flow direction in the self-aerated developing region—where air bubbles do not diffuse next to the channel bottom—were measured and analyzed. The region of self-aeration from free surface was about 27.16% to 51.85% of the water depth in the present study. The analysis results revealed that the maximum distance of air bubble diffusion to the channel bottom increased with the development of self-aeration along the flow direction. This indicates that for flat chute flow, the process of air bubble diffusion from free surface to channel bottom was relatively long. Cross-section velocities increased along the flow direction in the self-aerated developing region, and this trend was much more remarkable in the area near water free surface. The velocity fluctuations in flow direction in cross-sections flattened and increased with the development of self-aerated flow. Higher velocity fluctuations in flow direction corresponded to the presence of much stronger turbulence, which enhanced air bubble diffusion from the water free surface to channel bottom along the flow direction.

Published: March 2021

The objective of this research is to develop a module for the design of best management practices based on percent pollutant removal. The module is a part of the site-scale integrated decision support tool (i-DSTss) that was developed for stormwater management. The current i-DSTss tool allows for the design of best management practices based on flow reduction. The new water quality module extends the capability of the i-DSTss tool by adding new procedures for the design of best management practices based on treatment performance. The water quality module can be used to assess the treatment of colloid/total suspended solid and dissolved pollutants. We classify best management practices into storage-based (e.g., pond) and infiltration-based (e.g., bioretention and permeable pavement) practices for design purposes. Several of the more complex stormwater tools require expertise to build and operate. The i-DSTss and its component modules including the newly added water quality module are built on an accessible platform (Microsoft Excel VBA) and can be operated with a minimum skillset. Predictions from the water quality module were compared with observed data, and the goodness-of-fit was evaluated. For percent total suspended solid removal, both R2 and Nash–Sutcliffe efficiency values were greater than 0.7 and 0.6 for infiltration-based and storage-based best management practices, respectively, demonstrating a good fit for both types of best management practices. For percent total phosphorous and Escherichia. coli removal, R2 and Nash–Sutcliffe efficiency values demonstrated an acceptable fit. To enhance usability of the tool by a broad range of users, the tool is designed to be flexible allowing user interaction through a graphical user interface.
Modelling of Pool-Type Fishways Flows: Efficiency and Scale Effects Assessment
Authors: Quaresma Ana , Pinheiro António
Published: March 2021

In this study, the 3D numerical modelling of flow in a pool-type fishway with bottom orifices was performed using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software (FLOW-3D®). Numerical results were compared with experimental data obtained from acoustic Doppler velocimetry (ADV) and particle image velocimetry (PIV) measurements. Several hydrodynamic variables that influence fishways efficiencies, such as flow depths, flow patterns, water velocity, turbulent kinetic energy, Reynolds normal stresses, and Reynolds shear stress parallel to the bottom component, were qualitatively and quantitatively compared. The numerical model accurately reproduced the complex flow field, showing an overall good agreement between the numerical model predictions and the experimental data for the analysed variables. The importance of performing a numerical model validation for all the parameters under analyses was highlighted. Additionally, scaling effects were analysed by running an upscaled numerical model of the prototype fishway. The model performed with similar accuracy for both physical model and prototype dimensions with no evidence of scale effects. The present study concludes that CFD models (namely FLOW-3D®) may be used as an adequate and efficient design and analysis tool for new pool-type fishways geometries, reducing and complementing physical model testing.
Computing the Beta Parameter in IDW Interpolation by Using a Genetic Algorithm
Authors: Bărbulescu Alina , Șerban Cristina , Indrecan Marina-Larisa
Published: March 2021

This article proposes a new approach for determining the optimal parameter (β) in the Inverse Distance Weighted Method (IDW) for spatial interpolation of hydrological data series. This is based on a genetic algorithm (GA) and finds a unique β for the entire study region, while the classical one determines different βs for different interpolated series. The algorithm is proposed in four scenarios crossover/mutation: single-point/uniform, single-point/swap, two-point/uniform, and two-point swap. Its performances are evaluated on data series collected for 41 years at ten observation sites, in terms of mean absolute error (MAE) and mean standard error (MSE). The smallest errors are obtained in the two-point swap scenario. Comparisons of the results with those of the ordinary kriging (KG), classical IDW (with β = 2 and the optimum beta found by our algorithm), and the Optimized IDW with Particle Swarm Optimization (OIDW) for each study data series show that the present approach better performs in 70% (80%) cases.

Проведен сравнительный морфофункциональный мониторинг популяции донорских ооцитов, выделенных из яичников коров post mortem на разных стадиях овариального цикла, с учетом статуса хроматина и интрацитоплазматической локализации митохондрий ооцит-кумулюсных комплексов. Анализу подвергались ооциты, полученные из антральных фолликулов (Ø 2—6 мм), окруженные не менее, чем 5—6 слоями клеток кумулюса. Показано, что 45% и 50% ооцитов, выделенных из яичников на стадии фолликулярного роста и развитого жёлтого тела, соответственно, имеют периферическую локализацию митохондрий в ооплазме. Доля созревших ооцитов с периферической и равномерной локализацией митохондрий на момент аспирации их из яичников составила 88 и 85% соответственно, а уровень созревших ооцитов в группе с кластерным типом локализации достиг лишь 66%. В группе ооцитов с кластерной локализацией митохондрий отмечен высокий уровень ооцитов с дегенерированным хроматином после 24 ч культивирования (90%) по сравнению с группами с периферической и равномерной локализацией митохондрий (2 и 41% соответственно, P < 0,001). Ооциты с периферической локализацией митохондрий характеризовались гомогенной ооплазмой (58%). Гаметы с кластерным распределением митохондрий в основном имели гетерогенную ооплазму (52%), а клетки с равномерным распределением —  гомо- и гетерогенную ооплазму (29 и 36% соответственно).

A comparative monitoring of the population of cow donor oocytes isolated from ovaries at different stages of the ovarian cycle was carried out, the chromatin status and the intracytoplasmic localization of mitochondria of oocyte-cumulus complexes were evaluated. Oocytes obtained from antral follicles (Ø 2-6 mm) were analyzed. Gametes were cultured at a temperature of 38.5°C, in an atmosphere with 5% CO2, 90% humidity for 24 hours in T-199 medium supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum, 106 granulosa cells/ml, 50 ng/ml bovine prolactin. Mitochondria were visualized with using of vital dye rhodamine 123, the chromatin status was assessed by Tarkowski`s cytogenetic method. It was demonstrated that 45% and 50% of oocytes isolated from the ovaries in the stage of follicular growth and developed corpus luteum had a peripheral localization of mitochondria in ooplasm. The proportion of mature oocytes with the peripheral and spread localizations of mitochondria were 88% and 85%, respectively, while the maturation rate of oocytes with the mitochondrial clusters reached only 66%. Among oocytes with cluster distribution of mitochondria a high percent of cells with signs of chromatin degeneration after 24 h culture was noted (90%) compared with groups of oocutes with peripheral and spread distribution (2% and 41%, respectively, P<0,001). Oocytes with the peripheral localization of mitochondria were characterised by homogeneous ooplasm (58%). Gametes with the clusters mostly had a heterogeneous ooplasm (52%), and cells with the spread distribution – homo- and heterogeneous ooplasm (29% and 36%, respectively).
Distribution and numbers of moulting non-breeding Whooper Swans Cygnus cygnus in the Baltic States and South Sweden
Authors: Kampe-Persson Hakon , Boiko Dmitrijs , Morkūnas Julius
Published: March 2021

Non-breeding Whooper Swans Cygnus cygnus were recorded moulting for the first time in Latvia in 1989, in Estonia in 1993 and in Lithuania in 1997. Moulting has been recorded at 13 sites, three in Estonia and five each in Latvia and Lithuania, but not at all in South Sweden. The total number of moulting non-breeders increased from at least 83 birds in 2003 to at least 187 birds in 2012. The majority of the marked birds found moulting as non-breeders in the Baltic States usually originated from moulting sites within 25 km, the others from countries, including Germany and Poland, situated to the south of the moulting site. Distances between sites of hatching or breeding and moulting for these two groups ranged 0–81 km and 191–836 km, respectively. When caught for ringing, 40% were 2nd calendar year birds, the others older. Life-histories of Whooper Swans marked as moulters, or found moulting, in the Baltic States were used to discuss the lack of known moulting sites in South Sweden.

Published: March 2021

We describe a rare case of incestuous broods of Whooper Swan Cygnus cygnus in Świętokrzyskie province, Poland. A sibling pair laid eggs and hatched young at the same site in 2010 and in 2011, nine kilometres from their own hatching place. Both broods were unsuccessful; the young died before autumn. We assume that the key factors explaining the inbreeding were the small local population and that Whooper Swans tend to disperse over short distances.
Hur påverkas fågelfaunan av upphörd betesdrift – data från en 26 år lång inventeringsstudie
Authors: Karlsson Thomas
Published: March 2021

The breeding bird fauna of a 1.6 km2 large grassland area in southwestern Sweden was monitored in 1987–2012, using the point count method. The area was grazed by approximately 500 cattle until 2006, and the grass height was then at most 10–15 cm except for higher tussocks. From 2007 onwards, when the grazing had ceased, the grass increased in height to 20–30 cm and became much thicker. The average number of bird species per year was 44.7 over the 26 year survey period. Numbers of some farmland birds such as Lapwing Vanellus vanellus, Skylark Alauda arvensis, Starling Sturnus vulgaris, and Linnet Carduelis cannabina decreased in the study area, following the general pattern in the whole of Sweden. Meadow Pipit Anthus pratensis, Corn Crake Crex crex, Whinchat Saxicola rubetra and Grasshopper Warbler Locustella naevia increased in the area, but decreased in Sweden in general over the same period. The local changes in bird numbers in the study area seem mainly to be caused by an increased grass height and thickness as a consequence of ceased cattle grazing.
Biometrics of Razorbills Alca torda staying during the nonbreeding season in the Polish Baltic zone
Authors: Meissner Włodzimierz , Drozdowska Joanna , Bzoma Szymon
Published: March 2021

Biometrical analysis of Razorbills Alca torda captured or drowned in fishing nets in the Polish economic zone of the Baltic Sea is based on measurements of 98 individuals collected in the non-breeding period (October–April) in 2006–2013. These birds are assumed to represent the breeding population of the Baltic Sea as recoveries show that very few other birds visit that area. Bill depth and wing length of juveniles were much smaller than in older birds which suggests that the final size of these measurements is not achieved during the first winter but continue to increase as the birds grow older. In older birds only total head length and bill length were significantly larger in males than in females. Mean bill depth of Razorbills from the Polish Baltic zone fits well to clinal variation from south-west to north of the European part of the breeding range. However, mean wing length was much larger than expected according to the regression, which might result from differences in measuring technique. On the other hand it cannot be excluded that the Baltic population may actually have longer wings.
Territory vegetation structure and habitat preferences of the Savi’s Warbler Locustella luscinioides in lake Tåkern, Sweden
Authors: Bergner Adam , Gezelius Lars
Published: March 2021

Savi’s Warbler Locustella luscinioides has established as a nesting species in a few shallow reed lakes of southern Sweden during the last twenty years. Knowledge of the habitat requirements of a newly established species is important to maintain a viable population and design action plans. We examined the vegetation parameters in occupied territories of Savi’s Warblers at Lake Tåkern, the country’s stronghold for the species. We found association with the outer edge zones and fragmented areas of vegetation dominated by common reed Phragmites australis. Occupied territories differed from randomly chosen unoccupied (control) sites by having a thicker layer of basal litter, and on average more willow bushes (Salix spp.). Reed density and height did not differ between occupied territories and control sites. It is likely that the Tåkern population will continue to increase until it is limited by lack of willows or dense basal litter, the traits important for the establishment of territories. It is also likely that the species will continue to increase in Sweden as long as suitable reed habitats are left unaffected.
Population trends of birds in alpine habitats at Ammarnäs in southern Swedish Lapland 1972–2011
Authors: Svensson Sören , Andersson Thomas
Published: March 2021

All birds were counted along six permanent routes (total length 90 km) located in the low alpine zone (800–1,000 m.a.s.l.) at Ammarnäs, southern Lapland, during forty years, 1972–2011. Eighty-three species were recorded; average 41 species and 1,677 birds per year. Number of species as well as population size increased for waterfowl, waders and other non-passerines but not for passerines. Thirteen of the thirty-eight most regular species had significant population trends, twelve of them positive. The route counts correlated well with the number of pairs in two adjacent territory mapping plots. The trends also correlated positively with those found in all mountain routes of the Swedish Bird Survey. Although not quite significant this similarity indicates that common large-scale factors are involved in governing the local population changes. Several of the species that have their main distribution at lower levels are expanding their ranges into the alpine zone. Despite the predominance of positive trends some species have more or less severe problems, requiring deeper studies or conservation measures: Melanitta fusca, Aythya marila, Philomachus pugnax, Eremophila alpestris and Plectrophenax nivalis.
Field choice of autumn staging and wintering geese in southwestern Sweden 1977/1978–2011/2012
Authors: Nilsson Leif
Published: March 2021

Goose counts have been made in September, October, November and January since September 1977. Staging Greylag Geese Anser anser increased from 19,000 in 1984 to 250,000 in 2008–2010, mainly due to a corresponding population growth, and a wintering tradition was established with a maximum of 50,000 in 2008. Staging and wintering White-fronted Geese Anser albifrons increased from less than 3,000 to up to 40,000 and 25,000, respectively, due to a northward shift of the sites. Wintering Canada Geese Branta canadensis increased from less than 10,000 to a peak of 70,000 in 2009–2010, mainly an effect of the growing Swedish population. Staging of the Barnacle Goose Branta leucopsis is a new tradition established in autumn 2,000, with no less than 150,000 in 2011. Sweden is the autumn staging area for almost the entire Taiga Bean Goose Anser fabalis fabalis population that has decreased in recent years. During the same period Tundra Bean Geese A. f. rossicus have started to stage in larger numbers, the overall counts of Bean Geese giving an impression of stability in recent years.

The Influence of Organizational Culture and the External and Internal Factors on Performance Measurement System Adoption: A Conceptual Framework
Authors: A.S.A. Hassan , N Nordin , A.A Azamin
Published: March 2021

Researchers have perceived the advantages of performance measurement systems for public and private institutions. Besides, they asserted that the failure or the success during the adoption process depends on various external and internal factors. Furthermore, organizational culture is a fundamental pillar of any institutional development or adoption of any modern management system. Neglecting studying the effects of this factor on adopting modern management systems before starting the implementation stages may lead to failure to adopt these systems. Responding to this issue is crucial to understand the adoption practices of performance measurement system in the organizations and to explore the mutual influence between the forces that lead to the institutions adopt this system. This paper aims to develop a conceptual framework by reviewing previous literature and exploring the relationships among organizational culture, internal and external influences, and performance measurement system’s adoption. It also aims to integrate the organizational change, contingency, and institutional theories to come up with a more reliable and robust framework.

Objetivou-se avaliar fungos ruminais como potenciais probióticos em associação a dietas de alto grão no desempenho e rendimento de carcaça, e quadro de acidose em borregos Santa Inês/Dorper. Adotou-se fatorial 4x2 em DIC, sendo dois processamentos (grão moído ou inteiro) e quatro inoculantes (sem inóculos, com Rhizomucor spp., com Aspergillus terreus e com mistura dos dois fungos). Utilizou-se oito baias com cinco borregos/baia, durante 75 dias. Dietas com 85% de milho associadas à 15% de núcleo foram fornecidas ad libitum duas vezes ao dia, com inóculos aspergidos no arraçoamento. Realizou-se cinco coletas de amostras dos ingredientes das dietas e das sobras durante o ensaio para realização das análises centesimais. Pesou-se os animais quinzenalmente para avaliação dos índices de desempenho. Ao final do ensaio, na ocasião do abate, foram calculados os rendimentos de carcaça de cinco animais por tratamento. Os dados foram submetidos à ANOVA e as médias dos dados comparadas pelo teste de Tukey a 5 %. Não houve interação entre os fatores processamento e probióticos para as variáveis de desempenho (P > 0.05), assim como, não houve efeito da adição dos probióticos sobre o desempenho dos ovinos alimentados com os diferentes tratamentos (P > 0.05). Foi observado maior consumo de MS, MM, EE, FDN e CNF para os animais alimentados com milho grão inteiro (MGI) (P < 0.05). Não houve diferença significativa (P > 0.05) para o consumo de MO, PB, GPMD, ingestão de alimento e nem para eficiência alimentar. O aumento da concentração dos fungos e a associação dos fatores na dieta não demonstrou ser eficaz.

Este trabajo usa datos empíricos provenientes de una “investigación-acción participativa,” realizada a comienzos de 2015, para poner a prueba la hipótesis de que los mecanismos que tenían vigencia en tiempos greco-romanos, conectando las comunidades de la diáspora judía con un activo centro jerosolimitano, siguen funcionando en nuestros tiempos y siguen teniendo relevancia geopolítica. Se tomaron ejemplos provenientes de experiencias recientes de Argentina y Estados Unidos. En un caso específico, el de las presiones para excomulgar al canciller argentino Héctor Timerman de las instituciones de la comunidad judía, se estudiaron las actitudes de miembros del público a través de un “panel voluntario online.” Los hallazgos se vincularon a un significativo esfuerzo heurístico para determinar si la “dialéctica Baron,” así llamada en honor de Salo W. Baron (el más importante historiador del pueblo judío de la generación de la Segunda Guerra Mundial), sigue vigente. Esta dialéctica puede resumirse como el complejo mecanismo sociológico trans-histórico por el que la religión judía es reforzada por la nacionalidad judía, a la vez que ésta se arraiga supranacionalmente a través de las comunidades de la diáspora. Este proceso es, seguramente, una de las causas de largo plazo del antisemitismo.

For natural persons with business and professional activity, information technologies are a basic and important activity in order to simplify the fulfilment of their tax obligations before SAT. For this reason, this paper focuses on whether the taxpayers are aware of the need to apply these techniques in support of the fulfillment of these obligations. For this project, we used a type of mixed research that combines theoretical content and an applied part, in which the opinions of 20 contributors to are analyzed. In view of taxpayers' lack of knowledge regarding these issues, we seek to offer an informed proposal that allows for better use and application of the management of electronic accounting as an essential contribution to taxpayers from the city of Monclova, Coah.

Interesting is the participation of education in the Social and Solidarity Economy (ESyS), fundamentally of the higher level, as a key piece of action with society. Mexico has a little more than 5,334 university schools, 6 states concentrate 42.8% of HEIs, Puebla is located as the third entity with the largest number of universities with just over 480 university campuses, after Mexico City and the Mexico state. The objective of this research work is to analyze that Higher Education Institutions (IES) of the public or private sphere, in Mexico, contemplate in their academic offer Study Programs (PE) to the ESyS, which emerges at local, regional, national level and global as the Third Sector, considering the cooperatives, whose presence in Mexico was in the year of 1873, when the first production cooperative emerged. The research is documentary theorist. Results: in Mexico, .14% of studies in ESyS or some variant are offered: four undergraduate degrees, one in open and distance mode; in postgraduates: three Masters and an Inter-institutional Doctorate (in which two HEIs participate). Therefore, the academic offer in Mexican territory in ESyS does not get 1%, insufficient to support cooperatives, some with state and national recognition.

Published: March 2021

The research was carried out to improve the humidity parameters and durability index in the balanced feed for poultry in flour and pellet, to guarantee the quality and avoid contamination in the mycotoxin finished product. Samples of flours and pellets were used for four months to evaluate and standardize the pelletization process, to produce balanced food, which is intended for bird consumption in each of the breeding, posture and fattening phases, guaranteeing them a healthy development. In this investigation, we worked with two pelletizing machines of model 700 and model 702 to keep a statistical control of humidity and durability index (IDP), to avoid product losses in the pelletizing process. The contribution of the present investigation was to reduce the economic impact of the feed processing plant since reprocesses were significantly reduced.

Published: March 2021

The present work proposes the design of mathematical problems, which allow the adequate understanding of mathematical concepts of probability for its correct interpretation and later application in the resolution of probabilistic problems. For the development of this work we rely on the theory of didactic situations of Brousseau (1997) and Sadovsky (2005). We believe that new materials and didactic models of this type have great educational potential because they encourage the analysis and understanding of various probability problems (Panizza, 2003). Accurate communication between teachers and students in the approach, interpretation, resolution, and testing of probability problems is of vital importance. The software used for this purpose is the MATHEMATICA program, a tool that facilitates the writing of formulas and calculations, as well as the construction of graphs, through a friendly interface, facilitating the self-taught work of the student and encouraging the development of analysis skills and problem solving. We believe that these materials will contribute to the teaching and learning processes of probability at higher education levels.

This research analyzes the sustainability of the convenience stores of the industrial cd in Villahermosa, Tabasco. Considering the behavior of the research variable (sustainability) in different international, national and local contexts. As well as the theoretical foundations on which this variable is based. A diagnosis is made on the sustainability of convenience stores, generating a comprehensive scenario, in order to design a proposal. The tool that was used was the Likert scale from which an instrument was designed to determine how each of the cultural, economic, social, political, technological and environmental variables (independent or context variables) influence the research variable (sustainability of convenience stores). These context variables are in constant changes and movements and directly influence the convenience stores either positively or negatively. The instrument was applied in the convenience stores of the industrial cd of Villahermosa, Tabasco, in order to obtain decisive results for the sustainability of the self-service stores, the Excel tool version 2010 was used, in which tables were obtained and graphics, simplifying the content of the data giving specific and necessary results for the development of the proposal. From the results obtained, a model is designed to improve the sustainability of the convenience stores of the industrial cd in Villahermosa Tabasco, which will achieve a growth that will be strongly linked to social responsibility to provide attention to the workers who are part of them and the reduction of the impact on the surrounding environment. Ensuring the competitiveness profitability and permanence of convenience stores.
A Novel Multimodal Approach for Studying the Dynamics of Curiosity in Small Group Learning
Authors: Sinha Tanmay , Bai Zhen , Cassell Justine
Published: March 2021

Curiosity is a vital metacognitive skill in educational contexts, leading to creativity, and a love of learning. And while many school systems increasingly undercut curiosity by teaching to the test, teachers are increasingly interested in how to evoke curiosity in their students to prepare them for a world in which lifelong learning and reskilling will be more and more important. One aspect of curiosity that has received little attention, however, is the role of peers in eliciting curiosity. We present what we believe to be the first theoretical framework that articulates an integrated socio-cognitive account of curiosity that ties observable behaviors in peers to underlying curiosity states. We make a bipartite distinction between individual and interpersonal functions that contribute to curiosity, and multimodal behaviors that fulfill these functions. We validate the proposed framework by leveraging a longitudinal latent variable modeling approach. Findings confirm a positive predictive relationship between the latent variables of individual and interpersonal functions and curiosity, with the interpersonal functions exercising a comparatively stronger influence. Prominent behavioral realizations of these functions are also discovered in a data-driven manner. We instantiate the proposed theoretical framework in a set of strategies and tactics that can be incorporated into learning technologies to indicate, evoke, and scaffold curiosity. This work is a step towards designing learning technologies that can recognize and evoke moment-by-moment curiosity during learning in social contexts and towards a more complete multimodal learning analytics. The underlying rationale is applicable more generally for developing computer support for other metacognitive and socio-emotional skills.
The Paradox between Women’s Educational Attainment and Social Mobility in the Middle East and North Africa
Authors: Haghighat Elhum
Published: March 2021

Modernization theory predicts a strong correlation between increased access to education and positive changes in women’s social status and eventual social mobility. In the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region, women’s increased access to education deviates from the expectations of the modernization perspective. While the MENA region is going through a modernization process, improvements in women’s social status still lags due to limited opportunities in the job market and their exclusion in the political arena.
The Genesis and Development of the Maqāṣid al-Qur’ān
Authors: Islam Tazu
Published: March 2021

Maqāṣid al-Qur’ān is an emerging science that promotes an understanding of the Qur’anic discourse’s purposive (maqasidic) angle. Beginning with preliminary ideas in the fifth Islamic century, it has now achieved the status, in the eyes of many prominent contemporary Muslims, of being a specific science. Having been the subject of scholarly discussion in articles, books, television programs, seminars and conferences, this subject has created a new academic debate in the very contemporary field of Qur’anic studies. This study explores its genesis and conceptual developments over time by analyzing the root of this science as well as how it has fared at the hands of early and modern scholarship of the Qur’an. Its findings are expected to contribute to presenting this field to the public in a compact form.
On the Limitation and Openendedness of the Shari‘ah’s Necessary Universals
Authors: Yusuf AbdulHameed Badmas
Published: March 2021

The claim that the necessary universals (al-kullīyāt al-ḍarūrīyah) of the Shari‘ah are limited to five values (viz., religion, life, intellect, progeny, and property) is a subject of debate. Some scholars argue in favor of it, while others assert that this category should be open-ended. This argument started as early as the classical period and has, in the modern period, continued to elicit more divergentopinions. This study seeks to critically examine the viewpoints of various modern scholars/writers, especially those who oppose this limitation. It shall establish that these five values represent humanity’s basic needs perfectly. As such, other values that have been proposed can only be regarded either as means or as complements in relation to them.
Movimento das Jornadas de uma Folia de Reis
Authors: Assis Sônia Cristina de
Published: March 2021

Desdobramento de uma etnografia realizada no contexto da Irmandade Folia de Reis São Francisco de Assis, na cidade de Carmo do Cajuru/MG/Brasil, o artigo aborda a prática festiva, a dança, o canto e os ritos em meio a um trabalho de maturação e associação do que é vivido, daquilo que habilita as pessoas ao desenvolvimento das habilidades. Uma prática social de histórias de envolvimentos e experiências vividas, integrada num sistema sociocosmológico e organizada por uma coletividade heterogênea. No contexto dessa prática apresento os Dourados dos Palhaços e o acordeon promovendo diálogos, mediando as relações e se destacando como potência relacional dentro da performance musical. A antropologia, a etnomusicologia e o lazer tornaram-se, metodologicamente, o caminho para análise desta festa, buscando envolver a relação de elementos como a sonoridade, os cantos e os instrumentos, as danças e os sentimentos.

Published: March 2021

Este estudo tem como objetivo trazer a perspectiva dos estudantes do Ensino Médio do Acre a respeito do Lazer. Foi desenvolvido estudo transversal com 674 estudantes do Ensino Médio de Instituições Federais das cinco regionais do Estado do Acre. Os dados foram coletados por meio de questionário composto por módulos temáticos com questões abertas e fechadas. Destaca-se como resultado: os estudantes consideram o lazer importante e o relacionam com a prática, como o lazer social e de atividades físicas; e destinam um tempo para sua vivência. As barreiras apontadas para a prática do lazer foram: cansaço, falta de tempo e de dinheiro. Os estudantes também indicam a insuficiência de espaços destinados ao lazer e atribuem este fato à falta de interesse do poder público. As atividades mais frequentes são as sociais, as físicas e intelectuais, sendo suas escolhas mais influenciadas pelo meio social.

Published: March 2021

A mulher, inserida em realidades patriarcais e machistas, acaba por sofrer sistemas de opressão que influenciam as mais diversas áreas da vida, inclusive em seu lazer. Diante disso, temos como principal objetivo realizar uma revisão bibliográfica sistematizada, que visa compreender o que foi produzido em relação às mulheres nos dois periódicos vinculados aos Estudos do Lazer, as revistas Licere e Rbel. Dessa forma, analisamos as pesquisas encontradas e discutimos a possibilidade de novos horizontes sobre o assunto. Por meio de levantamento de dados, foi possível concluir que a cada ano existem mais pesquisadoras e pesquisadores interessados em discutir e compreender o lazer das mulheres, mas ainda existem lacunas a serem preenchidas.

Torceres

Published: March 2021

Partindo do conceito de pertencimento clubístico, traçamos reflexões sobre fidelidade, exclusividade e imutabilidade, comumente acionadas para legitimar a relação torcedor-clube. No diálogo com quatro pesquisas, identificamos elementos que, de diferentes modos, tensionam tais aspectos. Na experiência de mulheres casadas com jogadores de futebol, encontramos uma polifiliação com diferentes nuances entre torcer para o “time de coração” e para clubes nos quais jogam ou jogaram os cônjuges: formas de torcer marcadas por diferentes intensidades e modos de engajamento. Para torcedoras organizadas, a construção do torcer próprio é permeada por relações desiguais de gênero, concessões e, até mesmo violências, que sustentam os padrões de um “torcer genuíno". E, por fim, no caso de uma torcedora travesti, a cisheteromasculinidade atua a excluindo do universo futebolístico, e o acolhimento acontece no clube rival.
