Published: June 2024

This study assessed the relationship between dancing, self esteem, educational achievement and stress among School and University students in Lebanon. A total of 471 individuals (N= 471) were administered the Rosenberg Self Esteem Scale and the Perceived Stress Scale. The sample for this study consisted of 228 females and 243 males, 177 high school students, 191 university under graduates, and 103 university graduates; 243 participated in dancing, and 228 were non dancers. Their ages ranged from 16 to 28 years, with an average age of 22 years (M= 22). Statistical analyses were run, including correlational analyses, analyses of variance (ANOVA), and Independent samples T-test. There was no correlation between practicing dancing and the self esteem construct among students in Lebanon. However, practicing dancing was negatively correlated with stress levels. Moreover, dancing was positively correlated with better academic achievement. Further analysis of data showed that the “other” and "Rap" dancers received the highest academic average in comparison to the "Ballet", "Dance de Salon" and "oriental" dancers, who all received the lowest averages. Concerning the stress factor, the results of the current study showed significant differences between the type of dance and stress levels among students.

Published: June 2024

The aim of this study was to identify the association between bullying, child domestic maltreatment, and personality traits among adolescents within a group of Armenian schools in Lebanon. Participants were 185 students in grades 7 to 10, attending Armenian schools in Beirut and its suburbs. The study depended on the self-report method, where participants supplied demographic information and filled in three questionnaires: Illinois Bully Scale, International Child Abuse Screening Tool – Children’s Version (ICAST – CH) and Personality Inventory for DSM-5 Brief Form (PID-5-BF) Child Age 11 – 17. Results, calculated by using ANOVA and Pearson correlation, indicated a statistically significant difference at the level of physical abuse between “victim” and “control” groups. Also, there were significant correlations between the “antagonistic” and “disinhibition” maladaptive personality traits and being a bully. The outcome of this study indicated the necessity of entailing parental and school guidance for preventing physical abuse ,as well as concentrating on identifying the bully personality implicated in antagonism and disinhibition maladaptive personality traits within a group of adolescents attending Armenian schools in Lebanon.

Published: June 2024

This study assessed the relationship between socio-cultural adaptation and depression, including their predictive variables, among 200 Lebanese women residing in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. The convenient sample of women completed the Cultural Distance Scale, the Socio-Cultural Adaptation Scale (SCAS), the Social Readjustment Rating Scale (SRRS), the Social Ties, the Beck Depression Inventory-II (BDI-II) and the Eysenck Personality Questionnaire- Revised (Extraversion/Introversion) subscale. Socio-cultural adaptation was significantly positively correlated with cultural distance, residence duration, language, and interaction with locals as well as negatively correlated with depression. Depression was significantly positively correlated with life changes and negatively correlated with extraversion. Also depression was not significantly correlated with satisfaction with relationships with Saudis and other Lebanese and non-Lebanese expatriates.

Published: June 2024

The article analyzes the reasons for the growing research interest in the technology of loading lump anthracite of different fractions into a blast furnace to increase its efficiency. It is shown that loading blast furnaces with additional lump anthracite can be an effective way to improve the technical and economic indicators of their operation, especially on furnaces that work without the technology of pulverized fuel injection. It was noted that the traditional directions of development of iron smelting technology in blast furnaces practically mastered. At the same time, the problem of improving the quality of iron ore raw materials has not yet been fully resolved. A conclusion was made about the need for a new type of iron ore raw material, which would combine the best properties of agglomerate and pellets and would not have their negative features. A number of technologies for the production of a new type of iron ore raw material have been developed - fluxed local specs from iron ore concentrates of various degrees of enrichment, with an increased iron content compared to agglomerate and pellets and with an increased residual carbon content. A comparison of technological parameters of production and metallurgical characteristics of agglomerate, pellets and the developed unfluxed mono-raw material was made. If two technologies are combined: loading of lump anthracite into the blast furnace for partial replacement of coke and mono-raw material, namely, local specs with a high content of iron and residual carbon, then analytical estimates show that, for example, when loading into furnace No. 9 with useful volume of 5000 m3 up to 70 kg/t of lump anthracite, blowing up to 60 m3/t of natural gas and using local specs with a residual carbon of 2.85 % and an iron content of 70.45 %, it is possible to reduce coke consumption to 322.68 kg/t of cast iron and increase furnace productivity to 12733 t/day, which can be compared with the best indicators achieved in the world when blowing PCI, but without large capital costs.

Currently, the study of medicine is greatly divided in the differences between Oriental medicine and Western medicine. Not only is that the case, but most people depend more on Western medicine than Oriental medicine. Therefore, in order to study the development of Western medicine, we need to study the steady progress in its history. For example, we need to study 1) The history and consistent development of Western medicine 2) the medical history of the Middle and Near East 3) the medical history of mid-Asia and 4) Arabian medical history. Western medicine developed from Mesopotamia and Egypt. It then progressed to Asia and east of the Mediterranean Sea. After widely progressing in various countries. Western medicine was integrated as part of Western medicine to become what is known as Greek medicine. The father of medicine, Hippocrates, was from Greece.

Authors: So Il Hee
Published: June 2024

목 적: 2000년대 중반을 지나면서, 병원 사서가 실직하고 병원 도서관이 폐관한다는 보고가 난무했다. 2005년, 생존전략: 병원 도서관 프로젝트(Vital Pathways: The Hospital Libraries Project)는 2005/06 MLA의 회장인 M.J.Tooey와 AHIP, FMLA에 의해 이러한 보고의 진실을 규명하고, 병원 사서들의 지원을 위한 전략을 수립, 개발하기 위해 설립되었다. 이 장기 간의 계획을 통해 좀 더 명확하게 문제를 이해하는 기회를 가지고자 했다.
방 법: 3개의 태스크포스에 따른 운영위원회가 이 프로젝트를 수행하기 위해 설립되었다. 운영위원회는 감독과 함께 프로젝 트의 홍보와 마케팅을 책임졌다. 3개의 태스크포스는 병원사서의 현황에 대한 설문조사와 의료교육 및 인증에서 사서들과의 연계를 결정하였고, 현재와 미래의 병원사서의 역할에 대해 연구하고 집필하고 검토하였다. 프로젝트 도중 이들의 책임은 커 지고 발전되었다.
검색결과: 3년 조금 넘은 후에, 병원 사서를 위한 생존전략(Vital Pathways) 운영위원회의 태스크포스는 MLA 이사회에 자 사의 성과에 대한 최종 보고서를 발표했다. 이들 성과에 대한 샘플링은 병원 사서의 설문 현황과, 요약자료를 첨부한 문서가 있는 웹사이트, 짧은 홍보 소책자가 포함되어 있으며, 최종 완결 활동은 심포지엄이다.
결과: 비록 모든 도서관들이 어려운 시기이지만, 병원사서와 도서관들은 그 영향을 더 많이 받는 듯하다. 이것은 경쟁하는 의료 환경에서 부동산 경기침체의 영향을 받은 결과이며, 의료정보는 인터넷에서 무료로 얻을 수 있다는 병원 관리자의 믿음 에도 영향을 받으며, 이는 병원사서들의 운명 같다. 그러나 이러한 어려운 시기에도 살아남았을 뿐만 아니라 성장한 병원사 서도 있다. 그들은 기업가적이라서 그런가? 기회주의라서? 혁신적이라서? 융통성이 있어서? 이것들 모두에 해당되서? 모든 것에 해당사항 없음? 성공과 실패의 명백한 예측지표는 없다. 그러나 생존전략(Vital Pathways) 프로젝트는 몇 가지 이슈에 초점을 맞추고, 미래에 대한 기회와 전략을 명확히 했다.

Electronic journals are especially important for medical libraries. In medical libraries, electronic journals can be regarded as the core component since they are a major part of the collection with high utilization rate. To analyze the medical library users' utilization behavior and service quality perception of electronic journals, this study has surveyed the professors and graduate students at K university school of medicine. The general findings of this study are as follows. First, the results showed that the most frequent use of information by medical school student was to conduct research project and by medical school faculty was to investigate recent research trends in areas of interest. Both students and faculty used the Internet to acquire information with high preference of academic journals. Second, the study found that users preferred electronic journals and used them more frequently than printed journals. It was shown that journals published within 6 months to a year were used most frequently. Third, it was presented that electronic journal use occurred mostly in laboratories and hospitals and was accessed through medical library homepage. PubMed was the most commonly used database, and the preferred method of data acquisition was printing or saving by downloading. On the other hand, it was shown that materials that were not readily available were obtained either through interlibrary loan or consultation with a librarian. Notably, there was a high rate of task abandonment (i.e., giving up of dataacquisition) among graduate school student population. The conclusions of the study are as follows. The study found differences between study groups (i.e., faculty and students) in perception of electronic journal quality. The study also found differences in perception of satisfaction of electronic journals. The most influential factor for the perceptionof satisfaction was supportiveness followed by convenience of use and content resources.
A Study on the Change of Medical Library Acquisition Policy and the Ensuing Problems
Authors: Park Jeong-Hee
Published: June 2024

In the year 2000 the form of medical information was radically changed from paper base to electronic one. With the increase of electronic medical information and the easy access that entails from it, medical libraries and users now prefer to the electronic information. Librarians converted acquisition policy into the form of consortium which sells medical information on a package form of electronic information. Because of the change of subscription methods, libraries now have to pay ever increasing consortium fee as well as the allotted budget for subscription to the publishers. As a result of this practice, medical libraries are beginning to experience confusion of executing budget. In order to solve the unwelcomed confusion and to support to establish a more efficient and stable acquisition policy, this paper analyzes the current policy in terms of its benefits as well as the disadvantages of the changed acquisition policy.

İlki; nefsine zâlim olmak, inandıkları ve yaptıklarıyla kendine kötülük etmek, zulmetmektir. Adâlet ve merhamet sahibi Allah kuluna asla zulmetmez. Akıl ve iradesini kötü yönde kullanarak inkâr, gaflet, nifâk, şirk ve fısk inanç ve amelleri içeren zulmü işleyen insan öncelikle kendine zarar verir. Bu karaktere sahip olanlar “ashâbü’l-meşeme” veya “ashâbü’ş-şimâl” kelimeleriyle “bedbahtlar” olarak nitelenirler. Kitap mirasçılarının ikincisi “muktesit” yani dengeli ve tutarlı hareket ederek itidal yolu tutanlar dosdoğru yol “sırat-ı müstakîm” üzere hayat yaşayanlardır. “Ashâbü’l-meymene” veya “ashabü’l-yemîn” olarak adlandırılan bu gruptakiler huzur ve mutluluk içinde yaşamayı hak ederler. Kitap mirasçılarının üçüncüsü; iyi güzel ve doğru işleri yarışırcasına yapanlardır. Bu gruptaki inanç sahipleri hayatlarını iyiliklere adarlar, güzel ahlâkı da içeren “sâlih amel” işlemek suretiyle öne çıkarlar. Bunlar “es-sâbikûne’s-sâbikûn” ve “mukarrebûn” şeklinde nitelenirler. “Sâbıku’l-hayrât”ın dört çeşit inanç ve ameli ise el-Müminûn sûresi 23/57-61.âyetlerinde açıklanır. İlki; “müşfikler” yani Rabbe içten gelen sevgi ve saygıdan dolayı canlılara karşı şefkatli ve merhametli davranırlar. İkincisi; Rabbin âyetlerine yani ilahî buyruk ve ilkelere güvenerek gönülden amel işlemek. Üçüncüsü; Allah’a şirk koşmamak yani inanç, söz ve amelde İslâm’a uymak. Dördüncüsü; Allah’a bir gün döneceği gerçeği, hesaplaşma şuuru ve endişe, ürperti kalp halleriyle vermek yani infâk etmektir. İmkân, yetenek, nimetleri insanlığın yararına sunmak, ihtiyaç fazlası kazancı, malı ve serveti biriktirmeden üretim ve yararlı işlerde değerlendirmek olan “vermek”, dayanışma ve yardımlaşma bilinci sosyal birliği ve kardeşliği sağlar. Evrendeki dayanışma gerçeğinin fark edilmesi biz/vahdet bilincinin temelini oluşturur. Nitel bir araştırma tarzı ve belge çözümleme yöntemi kullanılan bu çalışmada Mâtürîdî ve Atay’ın bakış açısına göre Fâtır sûresi 32. âyette açıklanan kitap mirasçıları seçilmiş kulların inançları ve amelleri Kur’an bağlamında incelenmiş ve kelâm ilmi açısından değerlendirilmiştir.
Les manifestations de la dyslexie chez les élèves marocains
Authors: Bouya Younes , Hbabou Abdeslam
Published: June 2024

Cet article explore les manifestations spécifiques de la dyslexie chez les enfants marocains, un sujet peu étudié dans la littérature scientifique. Au Maroc, le contexte linguistique multilingue et non formel pose des défis uniques pour l'identification et la prise en charge de la dyslexie, compte tenu de la coexistence de l'arabe standard, de l'arabe dialectal, du berbère, ainsi que de l'utilisation de langues étrangères telles que le français et l'anglais dans le système éducatif. Cette étude vise à combler une lacune importante dans la recherche sur la dyslexie dans des contextes multilingues, en se concentrant sur les caractéristiques phonologiques, orthographiques et linguistiques qui influencent l'apprentissage de la lecture chez les enfants marocains, d’une part, et en mettant l’accent sur un trouble nouvellement reconnu et étudié dans le cadre de l’école marocaine inclusive. Afin de dresser le tableau des manifestations de la dyslexie, nous avons mené une série d’observations et d'analyses qualitatives sur un échantillon de 45 élèves bilingues, âgés de 7 à 12 ans, provenant de différentes catégories sociales et de différents types d’écoles : les manifestations de la dyslexie différent d’une langue à une autre.
La deducción del imperativo categórico en la Ética de Fichte
Authors: Coletes Caubet Ramon
Published: June 2024

El artículo investiga la cuestión de la validez moral. Analiza primero la explicación kantiana de la estructura moral a priori que permite entender la posibilidad de la ley moral como factum de la conciencia. A continuación, el artículo aclara el sentido de su deducción genética en Fichte. Se exponen los supuestos lógicos de la Doctrina de la Ciencia así como el método de la reflexión abstractiva que usa el filósofo para deducir genéticamente la ley moral desde el principio del Yo. Esta exposición permite destacar los aspectos más originales de la fundamentación fichteana de la moral.
Sobre las diferencias y afinidades estéticas de Kant y Solger
Authors: Genazzano Mompó Pablo
Published: June 2024

Este artículo presenta las diferencias y afinidades entre las teorías estéticas de Kant y Solger. Para mostrar sus diferencias, la primera sección se centra en las objeciones de Solger a la estética kantiana, las cuales se dirigen al estatuto formal de lo bello y a su contenido moral. Tras ello, la segunda sección explica el significado dialéctico negativo de lo bello en la filosofía de Solger. Para mostrar sus afinidades, en la tercera sección se pone en relación lo sublime kantiano con el concepto solgeriano de lo bello. Ambas categorías estéticas se asemejan en que los dos expresan una relación negativa entre lo particular y lo general. En términos generales, este artículo sostiene la tesis de que en la estética poskantiana la categoría de lo sublime es integrada en la categoría de lo bello.
Plotinus’ concept of ‘We’ and Its Relation to the Kantian Tradition
Authors: Oren Yady
Published: June 2024

Hailed as an innovative concept in antiquity, Plotinus’ concept of the ‘we’ occupies a nuanced and somewhat elusive systematic position. On the one hand, it locates itself in the realm of the soul rather than the intellect; at the same time, however, it manifests a self-conscious dimension typically ascribed to the intellect rather than the soul. This paper attempts to resolve this ambiguity by interpreting the ‘we’ as a potential of self-consciousness, which explains why the ‘we’ can become similar to, but not identical with, the actual self-consciousness of the intellect. The proposed definition not only brings clarity to the seemingly paradoxical formulations surrounding the ‘we’ in Plotinus’ philosophy but also sheds light on the allegories that Plotinus employs. Moreover, my analysis highlights the similarity between the Plotinian ‘we’ and the characterizations of the self within the Kantian tradition. Drawing on Cassirer’s dichotomy between concepts of substance and concepts of function, and Kant’s assertion that the ‘I think’ represents a potentiality rather than an actuality of self-consciousness, this study attempts to provide a conceptual bridge between the Plotinian and Kantian frameworks.
Reason and its Bedürfnis
Authors: Scaglia Lara
Published: June 2024

In this article I argue that the notion of Bedeutung (meaning, sense) in Kant is closely related to that of Bedürfnis (need) and that the former can be better understood by clarifying the latter. After an initial overview of the needs of reason in general, I will focus on the two directions of this need in order to state that they characterise reason and make it local. By this I mean that reason, while aspiring to wholeness, only functions adequately within a limited framework. It is from the cooperation of both directions of reason’s needs that meaning develops.
On the Intuitive Value of Aesthetic Ideas: Pleasure and Knowledge in the Critique of the Power of Judgment
Authors: Zimmermann Clara
Published: June 2024

While in the “Analytic of the Beautiful” of the third Critique Kant establishes an unequivocal distinction between aesthetic and cognitive judgments, in the context of the theory of Genius we find new elements that will enable us to discuss such antagonism between both type of judgments. As a matter of fact, Kant defines genius as the one possessing the “vivifying principle in the mind” which—by setting our cognitive faculties in motion—succeeds in exhibiting certain intuitive representations called “aesthetic ideas”. The latter are intuitions of the imagination that give much to think about, but against which no particular thought seems adequate. In this way, after analyzing the four moments of the pure judgment of taste, we will develop the notion of “aesthetic idea” within the framework of the Kantian theory of genius, drawing on the most recent interpretations of the subject. Ultimately, we will attempt to show that—although judgments of taste are not cognitive judgments— the third Critique presents important elements in order to evaluate to what extent aesthetic judgments contribute to cognition.
 
Si en la “Analítica de lo bello” de la tercera Crítica Kant establece una distinción tajante entre los juicios estéticos y los juicios de conocimiento, en el marco de la teoría del genio encontramos nuevos elementos que nos permitirán discutir tal antagonismo entre ambos tipos de juicio. En efecto, Kant define al genio como a aquel que posee el “principio vivificante del ánimo” que –al movilizar nuestras facultades de conocimiento— exhibe ciertas representaciones de tipo intuitivo denominadas “ideas estéticas”. Estas últimas son intuiciones de la imaginación que dan lugar a mucho pensar, pero para las cuales ningún pensamiento particular resulta adecuado. En este sentido, luego de analizar los cuatro momentos del juicio de gusto puro, intentaremos desarrollar la noción de “idea estética” en el marco de la teoría kantiana, apoyándonos en algunas de las interpretaciones más recientes sobre este tema. En última instancia, intentaremos mostrar que –a pesar de que los juicios de gusto no son juicios de conocimiento– la tercera Crítica presenta elementos importantes para evaluar en qué medida los juicios estéticos pueden contribuir a nuestro conocimiento.
Objetividad y significado en los juicios analíticos
Authors: Straulino Stefano
Published: June 2024

Si los juicios analíticos se entienden solo en función de la relación de inclusión conceptual entre sujeto y predicado, debe sostenerse que no tratan sobre objetos y, por tanto, que no tienen significado. En este trabajo muestro que, para Kant, los juicios analíticos sí tratan sobre objetos, en concreto, sobre el objeto en general, y que, si bien no se les puede asignar significado objetivo, se les debe asignar significado lógico.
Racionalidad transformativa en Kant: una defensa
Authors: Stepanenko Pedro
Published: June 2024

En el marco de la definición aristotélica del ser humano como animal racional, Mathew Boyle distingue dos concepciones de la racionalidad: una “aditiva”, de acuerdo con la cual la razón se agrega a los poderes mentales que compartimos con los demás animales sin modificarlos, y una “transformativa”, conforme a la cual la razón los modifica sustancialmente. Desde una perspectiva no-conceptualista de la percepción, Colin McLear ha presentado tres objeciones en contra de atribuir la racionalidad transformativa así definida a la filosofía de Kant: 1) el hecho de que compartimos con los animales no-humanos la posesión de contenidos no-conceptuales, 2) la oposición entre nuestra racionalidad y los impulsos animales en nosotros, y 3) la imposibilidad de concebir una sensibilidad espontánea. El objetivo de este artículo es rechazar estas objeciones y defender la atribución de una racionalidad transformativa a la concepción kantiana del ser humano. En esta defensa, argumentaré en contra de los contenidos no-conceptuales kantianos, destacaré que el conflicto entre motivos de la acción presupone una transformación radical de las causas sensibles y que la relación entre sensibilidad y entendimiento no debe entenderse solo en términos causales.
El origen discursivo del concepto y su necesaria modalización en la filosofía kantiana
Authors: Cruz Gustavo Ariel
Published: June 2024

En la Crítica de la Razón Pura, Kant define los juicios modales como un tipo especial de enlace, que pone en relación a los conceptos con las propias facultades cognoscitivas. Las categorías modales no expanden en lo más mínimo el contenido de un conocimiento, sino que son las formas en las que se pueden pensar los conceptos como conocimiento, esto es, en relación con algo como posible, efectivo o necesario. Esta peculiaridad de la teoría lógica kantiana está siendo estudiada de forma renovada en los últimos años, principalmente por la corriente analítica. Nuestro interés dentro de este tema es la relación entre la modalidad, el pensamiento discursivo y los conceptos; y cómo el concepto, por su propia naturaleza discursiva, está siempre acompañado de la conciencia de su posibilidad.

Authors: Torralba José M.
Published: June 2024

Esta obra, basada en la tesis doctoral que el autor realizó en la Universidad de Halle-Wittenberg bajo la dirección de Rainer Enskat, ofrece un estudio original y riguroso sobre uno de los principales conceptos de la filosofía práctica, el de acción intencional, en uno de los autores fundamentales de la historia del pensamiento. Se trata de una investigación interpretativa, que aclara nociones centrales en la ética kantiana (como imperativo o máxima), pero también netamente filosófica, pues ofrece una lectura de Kant sub specie veritatis. Placencia aúna la erudición propia del especialista con el interés por determinar el rendimiento filosófico de lo estudiado, más allá de la comprensión de Kant.
