In this study, using OECD Countries 2000-2019 annual data, renewable
energy in the OECD Countries (Particulate Matter) PM2.5[1] and economic growth. With the work, it is
hoped that the contribution of renewable energies to economic growth by acting
on the fact that renewable energy can reduce costs and air pollution. For
analyzes, It was used "Johansen Cointegration Test" and "Error
Correction Model". According to this; there was a positive relationship
between economic growth and renewable energy and a long-term negative
relationship between PM2.5.

[1] PM, hava kirliliği için yaygın bir proxy göstergesidir. Diğer kirleticilerden daha fazla insanı etkiler. PM'nin ana bileşenleri sülfat, nitratlar, amonyak, sodyum klorür, siyah karbon, mineral tozu ve sudur. Havada asılı duran organik ve inorganik maddelerin katı ve sıvı parçacıklarının karmaşık bir karışımından oluşur. 10 mikron veya daha küçük çaplı partiküller (≤ PM10) akciğerlerin derinliklerine nüfuz edebilir ve yerleşebilirken, sağlığa daha fazla zarar veren partiküller 2,5 mikron veya daha küçük (≤ PM2.5)çaplı partiküllerdir.

Vicious Cycle of Economic Growth, Pm2.5 and COVID-19 Case of G7 Countries
Authors: Karacan Rıdvan
Published: September 2020

Today, production is carried out depending on fossil fuels. Fossil fuels pollute the air as they contain high levels of carbon. Many studies have been carried out on the economic costs of air pollution. However, in the present study, unlike the former ones, economic growth's relationship with the COVID-19 virus in addition to air pollution was examined. The COVID-19 virus, which was initially reported in Wuhan, China in December 2019 and affected the whole world, has caused many cases and deaths. Researchers have been going on studying how the virus is transmitted. Some of these studies suggest that the number of virus-related cases increases in regions with a high level of air pollution. Based on this fact, it is thought that air pollution will increase the number of COVID-19 cases in G7 Countries where industrial production is widespread. Therefore, the negative aspects of economic growth, which currently depends on fossil fuels, is tried to be revealed. The research was carried out for the period between 2000-2019. Panel cointegration test and panel causality analysis were used for the empirical analysis. Particulate matter known as PM2.5[1] was used as an indicator of air pollution. Consequently, a positive long-term relationship has been identified between PM2.5 and economic growth. This relationship also affects the number of COVID-19 cases.

[1] "Fine particulate matter (PM2.5) is an air pollutant that poses the greatest risk to health globally, affecting more people than any other pollutant (WHO, 2018). Chronic exposure to PM2.5 considerably increases the risk of respiratory and cardiovascular diseases in particular (WHO, 2018). For these reasons, population exposure to (outdoor or ambient) PM2.5 has been identified as an OECD Green Growth headline indicator" (OECD.Stat).

Published: September 2020

Background: Despite the abundance and proximity of edible marine resources, coastal communities along the St. Lawrence in Eastern Quebec rarely consume these resources. Within a community-based food sovereignty project, Manger notre Saint-Laurent (Sustenance from our St. Lawrence), members of participating communities (three non-Indigenous, one Indigenous) identified a need for a web-based decision tool to help make informed consumption choices.Objective: To co-design a prototype website that facilitates informed choices about consuming local edible marine resources based on seasonal and regional availability, food safety, nutrition, and sustainability.Method: We co-designed a prototype with community members, regional stakeholders, and experts in user experience design and web development. We conducted 48 interviews with a variety of people over three iterative cycles, assessing the prototype’s ease of use with a validated measure, the System Usability Scale.Results: Community members, regional stakeholders, and other experts identified problematic elements in initial versions of the website; for example, confusing symbols. We resolved issues and added features people identified as useful. The final prototype’s usability was rated at “best imaginable” with scores similar across socio- demographic groups.Conclusion: By co-designing with community members, regional stakeholders, and other experts from the beginning, we were able to integrate communities’ priorities and perspectives about edible marine resources into a prototype website adapted to community members' needs. The final prototype includes a tool to explore species, and index cards to regroup accurate evidence about food safety, nutrition, sustainability, regional and seasonal availability, taste properties, and responsible fishing, hunting, picking, and preparation methods.
Children’s and adults’ eye movements and the extraction of number information from ambiguous and unambiguous markings
Authors: Gomez David Maximiliano , Holtheuer Carolina , Miller Karen , Schmitt Cristina
Published: September 2020

Children learn to extract number information from utterances using a variety of language-specific cues, but in some languages this information is encoded in features that display high variability in their realization. How does this affect their acquisition process? In this paper, we present an eye tracking study comparing 3.5- to 7.5-year-old children and adults’ use of number information on the verb and the determiner of the subject noun phrase in Chilean Spanish, a dialect of Spanish with variable realization of plural morphology in the noun phrase (due to phonological weakening) and categorical realization of number on the verb. Our results suggest that, while adults can determine whether the subject refers to a plurality or a singleton set based on the morphology of the verb alone, even 5- to 7.5-year-old children do not and, instead, require information from the noun phrase determiner to make a decision. Children younger than 5 years, instead, cannot use number information on the verb and on the determiner to make a decision. This supports Miller and Schmitt’s (2010, 2012) hypothesis that number morphology is not always mapped into syntactic and semantic features by younger children in varieties of Spanish where number is subject to variation.
Development of Multi-level Linguistic Alignment in Child-Adult Conversations
Authors: Misiek Thomas , Favre Benoit , Fourtassi Abdellah
Published: September 2020

Interactive alignment is a major mechanism of linguistic coordination. Here we study the way this mechanism emerges in development across the lexical, syntactic, and conceptual levels. We leverage NLP tools to analyze a large-scale corpus of child-adult conversations between 2 and 5 years old. We found that, across development, children align consistently to adults above chance and that adults align consistently more to children than vice versa (even controlling for language production abilities). Besides these consistencies, we found a diversity of developmental trajectories across linguistic levels. These corpus-based findings provide strong support for an early onset of multi-level linguistic alignment in children and invite new experimental work.

ABSTRACTBackground: Investigations about mental health report prevalence rates with fewer studies investigating psychological and social factors influencing mental health during the Covid-19 pandemic. The aims of the study were to: (1) identify sociodemographic groups of the adult population at risk of anxiety and depression, and (2) determine if the following social and psychological risk factors for poor mental health moderated these direct sociodemographic effects: loneliness, social support, risk perception, and illness representations. MethodsCross sectional nationally representative telephone survey in Scotland in June 2020. If available, validated instruments were used for example, Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-4) to measure anxiety and depression. Simple linear regressions followed by examination of moderation effect. Results1006 participants; median age 53 years, 61.4% female, 3.8% in the most deprived and 15.6% in the most affluent areas. Analyses show associations of anxiety and depression with sociodemographic (age, gender, deprivation), social (social support, social isolation, loneliness) and psychological factors (perceived threat and illness representations). Mental health was poorer in younger adults, women and people living in the most deprived areas. Age effects were exaggerated by loneliness and illness representations, gender effects by loneliness and illness representations, and deprivation effects by loneliness, social support, illness representations and perceived threat. In each case, the moderating variables amplified the detrimental effects of the sociodemographic factors.ConclusionsThese findings confirm the results of previous studies about associations between sociodemographics and adult mental health. Loneliness, lack of social support and thoughts about Covid-19 exaggerated these effects and offer pointers for pre-emptive action.
Parents’ Distress and Poor Parenting during a COVID-19 Lockdown: The Buffering Effects of Partner Support and Cooperative Coparenting
Authors: McRae Caitlin , Overall Nickola , Henderson Annette M E , Low Rachel S. T. , Chang Valerie
Published: September 2020

The COVID-19 pandemic is placing demands on parents that may amplify the risk of parents’ distress and poor parenting. Leveraging a pre-pandemic study in New Zealand, the current research tests whether parents’ psychological distress during a mandated lockdown predicts relative residual changes in poorer parenting and whether partner support and cooperative coparenting buffer this potentially detrimental effect. Participants included 362 parents, of which 310 were from the same family. Parents had completed assessments of psychological distress and parenting prior to the pandemic, and then then reported on their distress, parenting, partner support and cooperative coparenting during a nationwide COVID-19 lockdown. Parents’ distress during the lockdown predicted relative residual increases in harsh parenting, but this effect was buffered by partner support. Parents’ distress also predicted residual decreases in warm/responsive parenting and parent-child relationship quality, but these effects were buffered by cooperative coparenting. Partner support and cooperative coparenting are important targets for future research and interventions to help parents navigate challenging family contexts, including COVID-19 lockdowns.
How Imagination and Memory Shape the Moral Mind
Authors: Gaesser Brendan , Fowler Zoe
Published: September 2020

Interdisciplinary research has proposed a multifaceted view of human cognition and morality, establishing that inputs from multiple cognitive and affective processes guide moral judgment and decision-making. However, the extant perspective of moral cognition has largely overlooked the contributions of episodic representation. The ability to remember or imagine a specific moment in time plays a broadly influential role in cognition and behavior. Yet existing research has only just begun to explore the influence of episodic representation on morality. Here, we evaluate the theoretical connections between episodic representation and moral judgment, review emerging empirical work revealing how episodic representation affects moral judgment and decision-making, and conclude by highlighting gaps in the literature and open questions. We argue that a comprehensive model of moral cognition will require including the episodic memory system, further delineating its direct influence on morality and better understanding its’ interactions with other mental processes to fundamentally shape morality.
Eating Behavior as a New Frontier in Memory Research
Authors: Seitz Benjamin M , Tomiyama A. Janet , Blaisdell Aaron
Published: September 2020

The study of memory is commonly associated with neuroscience, aging, education, and eyewitness testimony. Here we discuss how eating behavior is also heavily intertwined—and yet considerably understudied in its relation to memory processes. Both are influenced by similar neuroendocrine signals (e.g., leptin and ghrelin) and are dependent on hippocampal functions. While learning processes have long been implicated in influencing eating behavior, recent research has shown how memory of recent eating modulates future consumption. In humans, obesity is associated with impaired memory performance, and in rodents, dietary-induced obesity causes rapid decrements to memory. Lesions to the hippocampus disrupt memory but also induce obesity, highlighting a cyclic relationship between obesity and memory impairment. Enhancing memory of eating has been shown to reduce future eating and yet, little is known about what influences memory of eating or how memory of eating differs from memory for other behaviors. We discuss recent advancements in these areas and highlight fruitful research pursuits afforded by combining the study of memory with the study of eating behavior.
Specialization and the firm in Renaissance Italian art
Authors: Piano Ennio Emanuele
Published: September 2020

Renaissance Italian painters are among the most innovative and consequential artists inhuman history. They were also successful managers and business owners, always in search of commissions for their workshops. Indeed, their ability as managers and entrepreneurs were just as important to their success was just as important as their painting talents. This paper develops a theory of the organization of the production of paintings—frescoes and altarpieces—during the Italian Renaissance. I argue that Renaissance artists faced a trade-off between costly delegation and the sacrifice of gains from specialization in the performance of the tasks necessary for executing a painting. Applied to the historical record, the theory accounts for several of features of the organization of this industry: why Renaissance artists dabbled as entrepreneurs; why they performed several duties that did not require any artistic talent; and why they set up firms to aid them in the execution of some tasks while delegating other tasks to independent contractors.

Authors: Bhopal Kalwant , Myers Martin
Published: September 2020

The global outbreak of the COVID-19 virus created new and challenging circumstances for schools, colleges and universities. In England the closure of schools and cancellation of examinations led to concerns about how pupils would be awarded A Level exam grades. These exam results have a significant impact on outcomes for pupils leaving school including access to the employment market, apprenticeships and university places. This report represents an early analysis of research exploring the impact school closures and cancellation of examinations had on students. The main aims of the study were to examine the impact (mental and academic) of predicted grades being used to award A Level grades; to explore support systems in place for students; and, to analyse differences by race, class, gender and school type. Some of the broader themes that emerged from the research included students concerns about the fairness of their A Level results; and, many students identifying structural inequalities within education being mirrored in the new processes for awarding grades.

Published: September 2020

Introduction: Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) has been declared a global public health emergency which is affecting people across the world. Health care professionals and their working environment are in close by vicinity to the patient. The chance of cross-contamination and spread of infection is high if proper infection control measures are not taken. Hence, the aim of this study was to assess the knowledge, attitude and practice (KAP) of Nepali medical and dental practitioners on infection control during the COVID-2019 pandemic.

Materials and Method: A self administered questionnaire was formulated and circulated online among health care practitioners. Questionnaire consisted of questions on knowledge, attitude and practice regarding infection control on COVID-19 pandemic. A scoring criteria was set, giving score 1 to the correct answer and score 0 to the incorrect answer. Total scores were calculated and levels of knowledge, attitude and practice were assessed. Mean scores for medical and dental practitioners were also assessed and compared.

Result: Total 80% of the total participants had not received training on infection prevention and control practices specifically for COVID-19. Only 19.3%, 4.7%, 9.5% participants scored maximum scores for knowledge, attitude and practice, respectively. Majority of the participants (around 80%) had good attitude towards infection control regarding COVID-19 pandemic.

Conclusion: There is a need for specific training on infection prevention and control on COVID-19 for Nepali health care professionals. Supply of personal protective equipment materials required for infection control against COVID-19 in health care facility should improve to combat against this pandemic.

Published: September 2020

The purpose of this study is to describe the supporting and inhibiting factors in the implementation of the Madani Prosperous Rice Program in Pematang Pasir Subdistrict, Teluk Nibung Subdistrict, Tanjungbalai City. This research method uses qualitative research with a descriptive-analytical approach. The results showed that the limited time at the planning stage caused the implementation of Madani Prosperous Rice program to be "forced". These time limitations also influence the success of the implementation of each stage and the overall program. In targeting, mistargeting was encountered, although at a relatively low level. This is indicated by the existence of non-poor households who are recipients of Madani Prosperous Rice (leakage) and the existence of poor households that have not yet become recipients (undercoverage). For future management concepts, a household census is collected to collect household socio-economic data, including demographic structure and household characteristics, which are then used as basic information to conduct discriminant analysis to separate poor and non-poor populations. In addition it is necessary to conduct trials through small-scale pilot which need to be continuously evaluated, before the program is run nationally. It is recommended that the government design other programs that can empower the poor, so that they are not too dependent on government assistance programs.

Aynı Dili Konuşmak: Trafik Mühendisliğinde Akım Oranı Nedir?
Authors: ÖĞÜT Kemal Selçuk
Published: September 2020

Trafik mühendisliğinde, trafik akımının temel değişkenlerden olan trafik hacmi ile benzer anlamda kullanılan ve İngilizcesi “flow rate” olan terimin Türkçesi zaman içinde “akış değeri”nden hiçbir gerekçe gösterilmeden“akım oranı” olarak değiştirilerek kullanılmaya başlanmıştır. Bu değişiklik, İngilizcesi “flow ratio” olan tamamen farklı bir terimin de, Türkçe karşılığının “akım oranı” olarak kullanılmasından dolayı karışıklık yaratmaktadır. Bu yazıda, “flow rate” teriminin Türkçe’de “akım değeri” ve “akım oranı” şeklinde iki farklı kullanılış şekli tarihsel süreçte verilmekte, gerçek “akım oranı” teriminin İngilizcedeki “flow ratio” terimine karşılık geldiği günümüze kadarki yapılmış çalışmalarda gösterilmekte ve bu iki terimin sözlük anlamları irdelenmektedir. Sonuç olarak “flow rate” teriminin Türkçe karşılığı olarak yalnızca “akım değeri” teriminin kullanılması gerektiği, “akım oranı” teriminin ise yalnızca “flow ratio” teriminin Türkçe karşılığı olması gerektiği belirtilmektedir.

Authors: Pereira Dulceana , Márques Fernanda Telles
Published: September 2020

Elaborado no âmbito de uma investigação mais ampla, o presente texto objetiva contribuir para a compreensão da História da Educação Especial na perspectiva da Educação Inclusiva. O texto resulta de uma pesquisa bibliográfico-documental, que tem como aportes trabalhos de Silva (2014), Ferreira (2009), Marquezan (2008), entre outros. A pesquisa bibliográfica se deu a partir de buscas em bases de dados, e a pesquisa documental envolveu a análise de documentos educacionais publicados entre 1981 e 2015. Como resultados, o estudo de um recorte significativo do processo histórico permitiu compreender os motivos pelos quais, não obstante o amparo legal conquistado, ainda persistem, no âmbito educacional brasileiro, práticas contraditórias e concepções pouco favorecedoras da escolarização, da emancipação e da participação social da pessoa com deficiência.
