Artists and Society in Modern Tibetan Literature
Authors: Virtanen Riika J.
Published: August 2020

It is usually thought that modern forms of Tibetan culture started to emerge largely in the latter halfof the twentieth century, although there existed some signs and developments of modernizationalready in the first half. Since then, modern and traditional arts have existed side by side, ofteninfluencing each other and even appearing in hybrid forms. This situation is reflected in storiesabout artists in contemporary Tibetan fiction: these literary works include stories about artistswhich reflect both traditional Tibetan arts and folk culture and modern arts. This essay focuses onprose works by three writers: Dhondup Gyal (1953–1985), Tashi Palden (b. 1962), and TseringDhondup (b. 1961). In the works discussed, the main characters are representatives of differentart forms. The stories contain descriptions of the lives of artists and themes related to becoming,practising, and living as an artist. After the occupation of Tibet by the People’s Liberation Army ofthe People’s Republic of China in the 1950s, Tibetan society underwent a considerable transformation.The changes in society and its norms and values are also reflected in the descriptions of theartists’ lives. The relationship between artists and the surrounding society cannot be characterizedunidimensionally. The stories describe highly differing attitudes and values towards culture andart, which range from appreciating and being supportive to limiting and being negative. The relationshipbetween the artist and society may also undergo changes within a single story, reflectingthe influence of different attitudes and cultural policies in the society towards the practice of anartistic vocation. Examining the descriptions of artists and the theme of living as an artist, thisessay contributes to the discussion of the genre of artist stories in Tibetan culture.
Opiskelijoiden oma-aloitteiset selityspyynnöt ja niiden käsittely - neuvottelua luokkahuoneen episteemisistä oikeuksista ja velvollisuuksista
Authors: Merke Saija , Heinonen Pilvi , Karvonen Ulla
Published: August 2020

Tutkimus käsittelee opiskelijoiden selityspyyntöjä sekä pyyntöjen yhteydessä esitettyjä selontekoja. Tutkimuksessa vertaillaan selityssekvenssejä kolmesta eri oppimiskontekstista, joista kaksi on yliopistokursseja ja yksi yläkoulun luokkahuonetilanne. Tutkimuksen metodi on etnometodologinen keskustelunanalyysi. Analyysin perustana on selityssekvenssi, joka esitetään toiminnallisena ja tiedollisena kokonaisuutena. Aineistossa selityspyyntöä käsitellään pääosin odotuksenmukaisena ja oikeutettuna toimintana ainakin silloin, kun pyyntö palvelee senhetkistä kokonaistoimintaa ja toiminnan päämäärää. Fokuksessa ovat selityspyynnöt, joiden muotoiluun liittyy perusteluja ja täsmennyksiä tai joita joko pyytäjä tai pyynnön vastaanottaja käsittelevät epäodotuksenmukaisina suhteessa vuorovaikutustilanteen normiodotuksiin. Tutkimuksen keskeisin tulos on, että selityspyyntöihin liittyvät selonteot kertovat osallistujien tarpeesta neuvotella selityspyyntöihin ja selitystoimintaan liittyvästä episteemisestä ja moraalisesta ulottuvuudesta. Osallistujat osoittavat selityspyyntöihin liittyvillä selonteoilla, että selityspyynnöille ja selityksille tarvitaan kontekstikohtainen legitimiteetti, joka tukee selityspyynnön onnistumista tai joissain tapauksissa sanktioi pyynnön.

Published: August 2020

Nowadays one of the main issues of pedagogy is teaching to primary school children who are blind and those with residual vision. Among those schoolchildren writing disorders are quite common and have a negative effect on their learning progress. The quality and acquisition  of school curriculum slows down, and   in general negatively affects the learning process of these children. The relevance of the study depends on the fact that sufficient methods, approaches related to teaching Braille literacy have not yet been thoroughly studied and developed.There are insufficient typhlotechnical, typhographic techniques to help promote literacy through the Braille system.
The study of the above-mentioned and other similar issues will help to fully implement the Braille system thus  improving the writing abilities of children with visual impairments.

Lorna Byrne – tämän ajan naismystikon kulttuurinen pääoma ja legitimaatio
Authors: Mikkola Elisa
Published: August 2020

Suomalaisen uskonnollisen maiseman muutos 2000-luvulla on avannut mahdollisuuksia uusille uskonnollisuuden ja uushenkisyyden muodoille kuten enkeliuskolle. Artikkelini tarkastelee sitä, miten uushenkisyyden kentällä, enkeliuskossa, luodaan kulttuurista ja sosiaalista pääomaa. Esimerkkinä käytän irlantilaista mystikkoa Lorna Byrneä, joka on pitänyt useita puhetilaisuuksia Suomessa. Tarkastelen sitä, miten Byrnen kulttuurinen pääoma on muotoutunut, miten hän on luonut uskottavuutta ja legitimoinut asemansa niin uskonnon kuin uushenkisyyden kentillä. Lähteinä käytän Byrnen kirjoja, internetsivuja ja häntä käsitteleviä lehtiartikkeleita, hänen tilaisuuksiensa kenttäpäiväkirjoja ja tilaisuuksissa vuosina 2011 ja 2015 tehtyjä kyselyjä. Tarkastelen legitimiteetin rakentumista kentän ja pääoman käsitteiden kautta.

 

Tutkimukseni osoittaa, että Byrnen uran kehittymiseen ovat vaikuttaneet hänen dysleksiansa, joka tekee hänen tarinastaan uskottavamman ja samaistuttavamman, hänen myönteinen, ketään syyllistämätön sanomansa sekä yhteisen lumon jakaminen, jonka Byrnen enkelikuvaukset luovat tilaisuuksien osallistujille. Nykyajassa on kysyntää kristillistä ja uushenkistä yhdistävälle henkilölle, jonka sanoma on brändätty uushenkisyyden kentälle sopivaksi.

This is the main goal of this Thematic Section published in Studies in Communication Sciences and following the second edition of the “Discourse Approaches to Financial Communication” (DAFC) conference held in Lugano in the summer 2017.
Different paths from transparency to trust? A comparative analysis of Finnish and Italian listed companies’ investor relations communication practices
Authors: Koskela Merja , Crawford Camiciottoli Belinda
Published: August 2020

This paper investigates how companies seek to convey an image of transparency in their investor relations (IR) communication policy texts. It is based on two corpora compiled from texts describing the IR communication policies of companies listed on the Finnish OMX Helsinki 25 and the Italian FTSE MIB 40, representing two culturally different players within the European financial community. A two-pronged methodology was used to identify the linguistic and discursive expression of the concept of transparency: corpus-driven micro-linguistic analysis and rhetorical move analysis. Results showed that transparency and dialogue were keywords only in the Italian corpus. They further suggested that Finnish companies focus more on the efficient disclosure of information, whereas the Italian companies highlight their commitment to constant dialogue with stakeholders. The findings can be interpreted as reflecting cultural differences between the countries in terms of contextual vs. personal, affective vs. instrumental, and elaborate vs. exacting communication styles.
Practice-driven journalism research: Impulses for a dynamic understanding of journalism in the context of its reorganization
Authors: Buschow Christopher
Published: August 2020

This paper proposes a practice-theoretical journalism research approach for an alternate and innovative perspective of digital journalism’s current empirical challenges. The practice-theoretical approach is introduced by demonstrating its explanatory power in relation to demarcation problems, technological changes, economic challenges and challenges to journalism’s legitimacy. Its respective advantages in dealing with these problems are explained and then compared to established journalism theories. The particular relevance of the theoretical perspective is due to (1) its central decision to observe journalistic practices, (2) the transgression of conventional journalistic boundaries, (3) the denaturalization of journalistic norms and laws, (4) the explicit consideration of a material, socio-technical dimension of journalism, (5) a focus on the conflicting relationship between journalistic practices and media management practices, and (6) prioritizing order generation over stability.

Subgaleal hematoma evacuation in a pediatric patient: A case report and review of the literature
Authors: Patchana Tye , Ghanchi Hammad , Taka Taha , Calayag Mark
Published: August 2020

Background:

Subgaleal hematoma (SGH) is generally documented within the neonatal period and is rarely reported as a result of trauma or hair braiding in children. While rare, complications of SGH can result in ophthalmoplegia, proptosis, visual deficit, and corneal ulceration secondary to hematoma extension into the orbit. Although conservative treatment is preferential, expanding SGH should be aspirated to reduce complications associated with further expansion.

Case Description:

A 12-year-old African-American female with no recent history of trauma presented with a chief complaint of headache along with a 2-day history of enlarging 2–3 cm ballotable bilateral frontal mass. Hematological workup was negative. The patient’s family confirmed a long history of hair braiding. The patient was initially prescribed a period of observation but returned 1-week later with enlarging SGH, necessitating surgical aspiration.

Conclusion:

SGH is rare past the neonatal period, but can be found in pediatric and adolescent patients secondary to trauma or hair pulling. Standard workup includes evaluation of the patient’s hematological profile for bleeding or coagulation deficits, as well as evaluation for child abuse. Although most cases of SGH resolve spontaneously over the course of several weeks, close follow-up is recommended. The authors present a case of a 12-year-old female presenting with enlarging subgaleal hemorrhages who underwent surgical aspiration and drainage without recurrence. A literature review was also conducted with 32 pediatric cases identified, 20 of which were related to hair pulling, combing, or braiding. We review the clinical course, imaging characteristics, surgical management, as well as a review of the literature involving subgaleal hemorrhage in pediatric patients and hair pulling.
Spontaneous cerebrospinal fluid otorrhea and pneumocephalus on the contralateral side of the previous cranial surgery
Authors: Ohara Keiichiro , Terao Tohru , Michishita Shotaro , Sato Kunitomo , Sasaki Yuichi , Murayama Yuichi
Published: August 2020

Background:

Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leaks and pneumocephalus commonly occur due to head trauma or surgical procedures. Spontaneous CSF (sCSF) leaks, however, occur without any clear etiology and are relatively uncommon.

Case Description:

An 84-year-old woman presented with the right-sided otorrhea. The patient had a history of a ventriculoperitoneal shunt placement following a subarachnoid hemorrhage treated by clip ligation of a left-sided ruptured cerebral aneurysm 7 years before presentation, with shunt catheter ligation after evidence of intraventricular pneumocephalus 6 years before presentation. At admission, computed tomography (CT) imaging of the head showed enlargement of the lateral ventricles, a right mastoid fluid collection, and a defect of the superior wall of the right petrous bone. We performed a right temporal craniotomy for the repair of the CSF leak. Intraoperatively, it was noted that temporal lobe parenchyma herniated into the mastoid air cells through lacerated dura and a partially defective tegmen mastoideum. The leak point was successfully obliterated with a pericranial graft and reinforced by a collagen sheet and fibrin glue. There was no recurrence of otorrhea postoperatively.

Conclusion:

This report presents a very unique case of a patient with a CSF leak and pneumocephalus occurring on the contralateral side of a previous cranial surgery. We accurately identified the defect site with CT imaging and repaired the CSF leak by temporal craniotomy. Awareness of the mechanisms by which sCSF leaks can be caused by aberrant arachnoid granulations is imperative for neurosurgeons.
Rathke’s cleft cyst with xanthogranulomatous change: A case report and review of the literature
Authors: Sprau Annelise , Mahavadi Anil , Zhang Michael , Saste Micah , Deftos Michael , Singh Harminder
Published: August 2020

Background:

Rathke’s cleft cysts (RCCs) are benign, typically asymptomatic sellar lesions found incidentally in adults, with a dramatically lower incidence in pediatric patients (<18 years). We present a case of RCC with xanthogranulomatous change (XGC) – an even less common subtype of RCC – treated by endoscopic endonasal surgical resection. This is the second reported instance of an RCC with XGC occurring in a pediatric patient.

Case Description:

The patient is a 17-year-old male with delayed puberty who presented with bitemporal hemianopsia and was found to have a 2.6 cm lesion, initially thought to be a craniopharyngioma. He subsequently underwent uncomplicated transsphenoidal endoscopic endonasal resection. Histology confirmed the diagnosis of RCC and demonstrated marked degenerative XGCs with squamous metaplasia. The patient tolerated the procedure well with improvement in visual symptoms.

Conclusion:

RCC with XGC is a very rare pathology, particularly in the pediatric population. These lesions, while benign, can manifest clinically with significant symptoms. While treatment paradigms are not fully established with a small cohort of cases, endoscopic endonasal approaches have made surgical resection of these lesions a safe and effective treatment strategy, even in the pediatric population.
Factors affecting the recovery time in vaginismus
Authors: MUTLU Elif Aktan , KARLIDAĞ Rıfat
Published: August 2020

Aim:
To examine the factors that had an impact on the treatment duration in patients
presenting with a diagnosis of vaginismus. 
Method:
This retrospective study included 62 patients who received cognitive behavioral
therapy for vaginismus. Golombok Rusk Inventory of Sexual Satisfaction (GRISS),
Sexual Myths Scale tests and a socio-demographic questionnaire were applied to
all patients. Those who responded to the treatment in the first 7 weeks were
classified as 'early responders' and others as 'non-early responders’ and
factors that may affect the responses were investigated. Results:
Thirty-two patients were early responders (52%) and 30 patients were late/no
responders (48%). Concerns regarding the pain experienced by the spouse
(OR:7.4, 95% CI: 1.02-54.2, p=0.048) and the idea that sexual intercourse
should always be initiated by the male partner (OR:8.98, 05% CI:1.07-75.38,
p=0.043) emerged as predictors of late/no response in multivariate analysis.

Conclusion:
Concern for female partners’ pain during sexual intercourse among male
partners, and the sexual myth of “sexual intercourse should always be initiated
by the male partner” among female partners seems to effect treatment response. Prospective
studies in different populations are needed in the future. Prospective studies

What’s in an Atom? a Comparison of Carbon and Silicon-Centered Amidinium···carboxylate Frameworks

Despite their apparent similarity, framework materials based on tetraphenylmethane and tetraphenylsilane building blocks often have quite different structures and topologies. Herein, we describe a new silicon tetraamidinium compound and use it to prepare crystalline hydrogen bonded frameworks with carboxylate anions in water. The silicon-containing frameworks are compared with those prepared from the analogous carbon tetraamidinium: when biphenyldicarboxylate or tetrakis(4-carboxyphenyl)methane anions were used similar channel-containing networks are observed for both the silicon and carbon tetraamidinium. When terephthalate or bicarbonate anions were used, different products form. Insights into possible reasons for the different products are provided by a survey of the Cambridge Structural Database and quantum chemical calculations, both of which indicate that, contrary to expectations, tetraphenylsilane derivatives have less geometrical flexibility than tetraphenylmethane derivatives, i.e. they are less able to distort away from ideal tetrahedral bond angles.

Side-chain substitutions have important influence on the aggregation of perylene diimide (PDI), which show a great impact on their excited-state dynamics as well. Herein, by employing photoluminescence (PL), time-resolved photoluminescence (TRPL) and transient absorption (TA) spectroscopy, we investigated excited-state dynamics of two perylene diimide (PDI) derivative amorphous films, i.e. undecane-substituted PDI (PDI-1) and diisopropylphenyl-substituted PDI (PDI-2), fabricated with spin coating method. Femtosecond transient absorption spectra reveal that both films show pronounced ground state bleach (GSB) with lifetime longer than 10 ns while the relaxation of excited state absorption (ESA) has typical lifetime less than 1 ns. The significant feature of excited state decay in PDI-2 is dominated by transforming the singlet excited state into two triplet states via singlet fission, which is evidenced by the appearance of triplet state absorption. By contrast, the absence of triplet state absorption and the appearance of long-lived emission species in PDI-1 suggest that the decay of excited-like state could be dominated by the formation of excimer. Our present study reveals for the first time that the singlet fission does occur in amorphous PDI film, the study also demonstrates that side-chain substitutions have great impact on the excited-state dynamics of PDI.
Optimization of the Bulk Heterojunction of All-smallmolecule Organic Photovoltaics Using Design of Experiment and Machine Learning Approaches

Published: August 2020

All-small-molecule organic photovoltaic (OPV) cells based upon the small molecule donor, DRCN5T, and non-fullerene acceptors, ITIC, IT-M, and IT-4F, were optimized using Design of Experiments (DOE) and machine learning (ML) approaches. This combination enables rational sampling of large parameter spaces in a sparse but mathematically deliberate fashion and promises economies of precious resources and time. The work focused upon the optimization of the core layer of the OPV device, the bulk heterojunction (BHJ). Many experimental processing parameters play critical roles in the overall efficiency of a given device and are often correlated, and thus are difficult to parse individually. DOE was applied to the (i) solution concentration of the donor and acceptor ink used for spin-coating, (ii) the donor fraction, and (iii) the temperature and (iv) duration of the annealing of these films. The ML-based approach was then used to derive maps of the PCE landscape for the first and second rounds of optimization to be used as guides to determine the optimal values of experimental processing parameters with respect to device efficiency. This work shows that with little knowledge of a potential combination of components for a given BHJ, a large parameter space can be effectively screened and investigated to rapidly determine its potential for high efficiency OPVs.
Burcad Badeed as Grounds and Method in Literary Expressions of Somali Piracy
Authors: McFaul Kelsey
Published: August 2020

The emergence of maritime piracy in the western Indian Ocean captured global attention from 2007 to 2012, resulting in simplistic and racialized representations of piracy in news and other media. In 2011, two diasporic Somali writers published literary works intervening in this representation: Nuruddin Farah’s novel Crossbones and Ubax Cristina Ali Farah’s essay “Un sambuco attraversa il mare” [“A dhow is crossing the sea”]. This essay reads Farah and Ali Farah’s alternative narratives of piracy through the Somali phrase burcad badeed, which both translate as ‘sea bandits’ or ‘pirates.’ As a method burcad badeed first historicizes contemporary piracy within the longue durée of the Indian Ocean world. Second, it draws on the ocean as an analogy and aggregator of dispersed forms of knowledge, thereby inviting comparative reading across conventional boundaries of generation, language, and form, and making visible practices of collective, embodied, and polyvocal knowledge production. Finally, burcad badeed complicates the distinctions between land and sea which undergird legal definitions of piracy to focalize particular landscapes: Namely the beach and the relationship between coast and hinterland. The beach foregrounds the ecological devastation to which piracy is a response, while the relationship between coast and hinterland frames practices of movement, complex racializations, and senses of belonging in Somalia and on the east African coast.
British Jurisdiction and Legal Protection of Non-Europeans in the Sultanate of Zanzibar, 1841–1888
Authors: Pawelczak Marek
Published: August 2020

This article addresses the problem of jurisdiction and protection over certain categories of the local population by the British Consulate in the independent Sultanate of Zanzibar. The minorities in question represented various ethno-religious backgrounds and enjoyed different social and economic statuses. They included the British Indian community, whose members belonged to the economic elite of the state and many of whom were British servants: employees of the British Consulate, as well as missions and private companies. The category also included freed slaves and Christian converts. The article examines the motives and conditions that stood behind British legal policies in Zanzibar. It argues that even if the consulate did run its own policy within the limits sketched by the imperial administration, the dynamics of this policy was set by the interaction between the consuls and the groups over which the British claimed jurisdiction. Although the clash of different legal norms and systems occurred as a result of legal pluralism, the real conflicts concerned the limits of British jurisdiction. This paper is based on research in the national archives of Zanzibar, France, Germany and the United Kingdom.
Expanding the Boundaries of TPSR and Empowering Others to Make Their Own Contributions
Authors: Gordon Barrie , Beaudoin Sylvie
Published: August 2020

Purpose: The purpose of this article was to examine the geographical spread of teaching personal and social responsibility (TPSR), the extensive range of new populations and cultures that TPSR has been implemented with, and to consider the resulting challenges of this growth. Method: Information was gathered from published articles, dissertations, professional articles, and program descriptions and systematically analyzed for program fidelity. Results: A total of 31 countries were identified as having some level of TPSR presence, and there was a great deal of diversity in how, where, and to whom the programs are implemented. Discussion: The proliferation of TPSR will continue, and as this occurs, there will be increasing challenges in maintaining fidelity to the model. Conclusion: To meet this challenge, ongoing research, quality professional development, and the growth of communities of TPSR practice will be crucial.

Teachers’ Perceptions of Physical Education in Aotearoa/New Zealand Primary Schools
Authors: Gordon Barrie , Dyson B , Cowan J , McKenzie A , Shulruf B
Published: August 2020

© 2016, New Zealand Association for Research in Education. This study examines practicing primary school teacher’s perceptions of the teaching of physical education in their schools. There has been some criticism of primary school physical education but until now this criticism has been largely based on a number of small studies involving limited numbers of teachers and schools. This study involved surveys of 487 teachers and in-depth individual interviews with 33 teachers located across six major regions of Aotearoa/New Zealand. The findings are presented in four themes: what does physical education look like; who teaches physical education; planning, assessment and reflection; and influences on the teaching of physical education. The study identified that what occurs in the physical education space in primary schools is often inconsistent and variable. The findings are discussed in relation to the requirements of the New Zealand Curriculum, the 2014 National Monitoring Study of Student Achievement report and previous research on primary school physical education. The article concludes by discussing future directions for the teaching physical education in light of these findings.
