An Analysis on the Poems in Qin Dynasty Shown in 4 Collection Books of Ancient Poems Made in Ming and Qing Dynasties: Focusing on 『Gosigi』, 『Chaesukdanggosiseon』,『Gosiwon』, and 『Gosisangseok』
Authors:   The Society For Chinese Humanities In Korea, . .
Published: January 2022

About 155 years of Qin Dynasty was a series of political turmoil: upheaval of the Eight Princesses, Yongjia Rebellion, collapse of Seojin, and moving to the south and founding Dongjin. Poets made investigative and formalistic poetry during the years of Taegang (280∼289) enjoying short prosperity and later made Hyeoneon-si and Yooseon-si neglecting reality and drawing an immortal world. About such poems in Qin Dynasty, compilers of the collection of ancient poems in later age, especially Qing Dynasty began to put forth their opinion with the curiosity of how such poems were evaluated. As a way to know such evaluation, they chose 『Gosigi』, 『Chaesukdanggosiseon』, 『Gosiwon』, and 『Gosisangseok』 - four collection books of ancient poems made in Ming and Qing Dynasties, made common lists of poems in Qin Dynasty, and analyzed the poems. First, this study divided major authors and anonymous works shown in the common lists for analysis. Next, in the subcategory of major authors, it classified again, in a chronological order, the representative authors who had led the years of Taegang (280∼289) into the works of Janghwa, Jangjae, Janghyeop, Yukgi, Yukun, Banak, Banni, and Gwasa and those of Yugon and Gwakbak and finally looked at the works of Tao Yan Ming occupying the largest number of works in the common list. As a result, it could be found that compilers of the collection of ancient poems in later age, especially Qing Dynasty selected the works of poets who included period as it was rather than the works neglecting reality and included them into the collection of poems and this was significant in that the compilers of the collection of ancient poems in Qing Dynasty wanted to find from the poetry in Qing Dynasty.
Videos in Online Courses
Authors: Litton Eric
Published: January 2022

Many instructors use videos to support their teaching in online courses to convey course content that would normally be taught in a traditional setting. Prior studies have shown some connection between utilizing online videos and student performance but do not always support their finding statistically or consider the nuance of the online videos, such as if the videos are required and how long the videos are. This article uses various quantitative analysis techniques to investigate the relationship between video length, student video viewing patterns, and grades. The findings indicate that videos should stay within a certain length to encourage student engagement with the videos and course assignments. Also, watching online videos is only positively related to grades when students are not required to watch, a result that is consistent across course-level and student-level models. Student viewing patterns also differ for courses that require watching videos versus those that do not. The article concludes by discussing the relevance of these results and how instructors can best utilize online videos in their courses.
The Jigsaw Design Challenge
Authors: Calkins Susanna C. , Rivnay Jonathan
Published: January 2022

This article highlights an innovative take on the jigsaw format, an inclusive and cooperative active learning strategy, implemented in an upper-level engineering elective course. After students complete the usual two steps of the jigsaw method—first gaining mastery in “expert groups” and then collaboratively teaching their peers in “jigsaw groups”—they then complete a third step in their jigsaw groups, in which they work together on an authentic design problem, offering a practical take on applying course content. This activity was implemented in three courses offered both in person and remotely (online only). We share how this innovation can promote learning, problem-solving, perspective sharing, and teamwork in contexts with students from different backgrounds and levels of experience.
Creating an Inclusive Learning Community to Better Serve Minority Students
Authors: Lin Phoebe S. , Kennette Lynne N.
Published: January 2022

As campuses become increasingly diverse, it is important that faculties maintain inclusive classrooms. Students of underrepresented ethnic/racial groups are more likely to experience disengagement in an academic setting (Nagasawa & Wong, 1999), which can lead to underperformance (Major et al., 1998). Students with LGBTQA+ (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, or asexual) identities are at higher risk of poor mental health and lower academic performance compared to cisgender and heterosexual students (Aragon et al., 2014). These detrimental experiences can lead to even more harm in a remote learning environment, where students have fewer opportunities to feel a sense of belonging and connect with their peers and/or instructors. This paper will consider strategies of inclusiveness in the online classroom and in-person learning environment within a social psychology framework to better support underprivileged students to improve academic performance and the overall educational experience. The suggestions and discussions provided apply to both in-person learning as well as remote delivery.
WORM BIOMASS AND VERMICOMPOST PRODUCTION BY THE EPIGEIC EARTHWORM, PERIONYX EXCAVATUS BY USING DIFFERENT ORGANIC WASTES
Authors: Ganiger Karuna S. , Nagannawar Milind F. , Patil Soumya R. , Biradar Pulikeshi M.
Published: January 2022

As the epigeic earthworms are known to be efcient and potential biodegrades and nutrient releasers, tolerant to wide
range of ecological disturbances, aids in litter communication and efcient decomposers. Therefore, the present study
was undertaken to nd out the inuence of various organic wastes (such as False Ashoka waste-FAW (Polyalthia longifolia), Parthenium wastePW (Parthenium hysterophorus), Cotton residue waste-CRW (Gossypium), Lawn grass waste-LGW (Agrostis) and Cattle manure-CM) on the
production of worm biomass and vermicompost by the epigeic earthworm, Perionyx excavatus along with control compost experiments without
worms (in triplicates) to know the potentiality of this worm species in processing of various organic wastes for the production of worm biomass
as vermiprotein and vermicompost as biofertilizer. Both compost and vermicompost experimental pots were terminated after 35 and 70 days
time intervals. Observations were made with respect to number of old and new adult worms, new sub-clitellates, juveniles, cocoons with their
weight were noted to determine the total worm biomass (Gross biomass), biomass ratio (WBR) and Fold Increase in Worm Number (FIWN).
Percent compost and vermicompost produced out of different organic waste were also calculated at the end of each experiment at35 and 70 days.
The results of the present study revealed that the biomass of Perionyx excavatus such as Gross worm biomass (GWB), Worm biomass ratio
(WBR) and Fold increase in worm number (FIWN) increased from 35days to 70 days time intervals in all the organic wastes (FAW, PW, CRW,
LGW and CM). It was maximum in CM and minimum in FAW among all the organic wastes. There is a signicant variation was noticed in worm
biomass production (GWB, WBR, and FIWN) among and between all the organic wastes except between few organic wastes at 35 and 70 days
time intervals. The vermicompost production was more as compared to normal compost in all the organic wastes. Further, both compost and
vermicompost production were more in CM followed by LGW, CRW, PW and minimum in FAW among all organic wastes. The signicant
difference was also observed in the production of compost and vermicompost among and between different organic wastes except between few
organic wastes at different time intervals.
Based on the results, it can be concluded that the earthworm, Perionyx excavatus is an efcient epigeic earthworm species, effectively used in
vermicomposting for the production of vermicompost and as well as in vermifarming in the production of worm biomass as vermiprotein.
Further, earthworm biomass, compost and vermicompost production primarily depends on nature of organic wastes and secondly on the
potentiality of earthworm species used in the experimental studies.

MEDIA EDUCATION, DIGITAL CULTURE AND FAKE NEWS IN TIMES OF PANDEMIC
 
Abstract: Faced with the need for teachers to help students deal with infodemia, since classrooms are currently embedded in a digital culture, a survey was carried out with the objective of presenting the possibilities of developing a critical sense in students in relation to the information that surrounds them. To this end, in 2021 a survey with a qualitative approach was carried out. According to the objective outlined, the type of research was descriptive. As for the technical procedures, it was opted for bibliographic and documental research. The results reveal the importance of media education, which encompasses the development of skills to combat misinformation and, at the same time, allows for a healthy skepticism, as the school is the environment that forms media citizens, where students build the relationship with knowledge and the information. Based on this need, this article presents 12 tips to identify fake news and suggests five educational activities that help identify these fake news.

Through a Glass, Darkly: Systemic Racism, Affirmative Action, and Disproportionate Minority Contact
Authors: Walker Sterling Robin
Published: January 2022

This Article is the first to describe how systemic racism persists in a society that openly denounces racism and racist behaviors, using affirmative action and disproportionate minority contact as contrasting examples. Affirmative action and disproportionate minority contact are two sides of the same coin. Far from being distinct, these two social institutions function as two sides of the same ideology, sharing a common historical nucleus rooted in the mythologies that sustained chattel slavery in the United States. The effects of these narratives continue to operate in race-related jurisprudence and in the criminal legal system, sending normative messages about race and potential using the same jurisprudential trick: denial of our country’s race-bound legacy. By juxtaposing the rhetoric and jurisprudence concerning the underrepresentation of white people in the criminal legal system with the rhetoric and jurisprudence concerning the underrepresentation of Black people in higher education, this Article illuminates a key feature of how systemic racism persists.

Obscuring the history of how both affirmative action and disproportionate minority contact came to be, the racially contorted narratives that we have adopted about affirmative action in both guises described here—affirmative action that benefits people of color by accepting them into institutions of higher learning and that which benefits white people by diverting them from the criminal legal system—allow systems to thrive under a guise of presumed racial innocence. Unmoored from the force of history, we rudderlessly reinforce well-worn social norms, no matter how discriminatory they might be.
Alternatives for the recovery and renewal of degraded pastures
Authors: Cruz Natan Teles , Lucas Santos Dias Daniel , Deitos Fries Daniela , Rodrigues Jardim Renata , Maia de Lana Sousa Braulio , Vieira Pires Aureliano José , Pacheco Ramos Bárbara Louise
Published: January 2022

This review aimed to approach the dynamics of pasture degradation, relating its causes and forms of recovery and/or renewal. Despite being based on extensive systems, Brazilian agriculture faces serious problems related to pasture degradation. The reduction in forage productivity directly affects the production system, having negative impacts on the economy and the ecosystem. Factors such as the choice of forage species, grazing management and the use of fire are the main factors responsible for the degradation of pastures in Brazil, causing an environmental and productive imbalance. However, it is possible to stop the progress of degradation and resume system productivity using pre-defined techniques in accordance with the objective of the production system. Furthermore, pasture recovery techniques are efficient for the resumption of productivity, and environmental protection, by helping to reduce greenhouse gases. Nevertheless, more research is needed to prove and consolidate pasture recovery techniques in the environmental, economic, and social scope.

International forecasting and simulation is a study that summarizes research, in a shortened and integrated version. The thematic scope concerns the basic terminology and methodological issues of forecasts and the forecasting process itself, forecasting institutions and the final product, i.e. international forecasts. The main goal is to present and systematize basic knowledge in the field of forecasting in international relations. The book is generally aimed at all those interested in international affairs. However, the author hopes that the publication will also be helpful for researchers and analysts dealing with difficult issues of international forecasting in the field of their scientific research methodologies. The work consists of two parts – theoretical and empirical. The theoretical part includes two chapters. The first chapter begins by discussing the concepts of forecasting and simulation. Next, considerations were made about the place of forecasting in science, pointing out the existing dilemmas in this regard, and also discussed categories, classifications and functions of forecasting and simulation. The second chapter presents the main elements of the forecast and the phases of the forecasting process. Most space was devoted to the presentation of the most important methods of forecasting in international relations, not limiting itself only to discussing them, but also assessing their usefulness for formulating international forecasts. In the third chapter, which is of an empirical nature, the selected forecasting institutions are first discussed according to the division applied into typically research, university, governmental, international and private institutions. This classification is of a contractual nature, but corresponds to the basic functions performed by individual institutions. In the further part of this chapter, the most important – according to the author – ecological, demographic and political forecasts are presented, focusing on discussing the main consequences of their possible implementation for international relations.

Published: January 2022

Secara geografis Indonesia terletak di daerah katulistiwa dengan morfologi yang beragam dari dataran sampai pegunungan tinggi. Hal ini menyebabkan Indonesia telah mengalami berbagai bencana yang menyebabkan kerugian jiwa dan materi yang besar yang akan terus berulang kejadiannya. Peta potensi bencana gempa di Indonesia menunjukkan bahwa Indonesia adalah wilayah dengan zona-zona gempa yang rawan, peta potensi bencana tanah longsor, peta potensi bencana letusan gunungapi, peta potensi bencana tsunami, peta potensi bencana banjir, dan lain-lain. Potensi bencana akibat kenaikan permukaan laut terhadap kondisi lingkungan bio-geofisik yang berantai yaitu dengan meningkatnya frekuensi dan intensitas banjir maka terjadi perubahan arus laut dan meluasnya kerusakan mangrove, akibatnya akan meluas pula intrusi air laut yang mengancam kegiatan sosial-ekonomi masyarakat pesisir, serta berkurangnya luas daratan atau hilangnya pulau-pulau kecil. Upaya strategis untuk melindungi setiap warga negara dengan langkah-langkah penanggulangan bencana (manajemen bencana) baik sebelum, pada saat dan setelah bencana. Di samping itu, upaya pemberdayaaan komunitas agar memiliki informasi memadai, waspada, lebih aktif, serta memiliki kemampuan untuk berkoordinasi dan mendukung pemerintah dalam kegiatan prevensi maupun mitigasi. Komunitas lokal dapat memberikan dukungan dalam bentuk informasi, usulan maupun gagasan kepada pemerintah, bahkan sumber daya tertentu yang tidak dapat disediakan oleh pemerintah. Melibatkan komunitas dalam perencanaan manajemen bencana dan mendorong komunitas berpartisipasi akan memberikan nilai tambah.

Komunikasi Antarpribadi Orang Tua Dan Anak Dalam Memilih Calon Pasangan Hidup
Authors: Saniah Nurul
Published: January 2022

Manusia tidak akan bisa berkembang dan maju tanpa adanya komunikasi dengan manusia lainnya. Karena manusia membutuhkan orang lain dalam kehidupannya dan tidak bisa hidup sendiri dan menyendiri di dunia ini. Komunikasi sudah ada semenjak terciptanya manusia pertama yaitu Nabi Adam AS dan memang sudah fitrahnya manusia harus berkomunikasi dengan orang lain. Karena tanpa adanya komunikasi maka dunia ini akan mengalami perubahan. Salah satu komunikasi yang ada adalah komunikasi antarpribadi, yaitu komunikasi yang dilakukan seorang individu dangan individu lainnya. Bentuk khusus dari komunikasi antarpribadi ini adalah komunikasi yang melibatkan hanya dua orang secara tatap-muka, yang memungkinkan setiap pesertanya menangkap reaksi orang lain secara langsung, baik secara verbal ataupun nonverbal, seperti suami-isteri, anak dan oang tuanya, dua sejawat, dua sahabat dekat, seorang guru dengan seorang muridnya, dan sebagainya. 

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui apa saja yang dilakukan orang tua dalam berkomunikasi dengan anaknya dalam memilih calon pasangan hidup. Setelah melakukan komunikasi antarpribadi dengan anak bagaimana respon sang anak terhadap komunikasi yang diberikan orang tuanya. Komunikasi yang terjalin antara anak dan orang tua berguna untuk anak agar tidak salah dalam memilih pasangan hidup yang tidak hanya disukainya sendiri tetapi juga disukai dan direstui orang tuanya. 
Effect of Ocimum gratissimum plant leaf extract concentration and annealing temperature on the structure and optical properties of synthesized zinc oxide nanoparticles
Authors: Mfon Rebecca Emmanuel , Hall Simon R , Sarua Andrei
Published: January 2022

Zinc oxide nanoparticles biosynthesized using two concentrations of Ocimum gratissimum (Og) plant leaf extracts were annealed at two different temperatures. Their UV-Vis absorbance peaks at 372 nm - 375 nm indicate a blue shift in excitonic absorption and their optical energy band gap values were in the range 3.22 eV – 3.31 eV. SEM images show the nanoparticles to be polydispersed and of a wide range of sizes with smaller nanoparticles clustering around bigger micrometer- sized ones with sharp edges. An annealing temperature of 400 resulted in the sintering of the nanoparticles but nanoparticles annealed at 250 had porous surfaces suggesting a possible use in gas sensor applications. XRD patterns show that the ZnO nanoparticles have the hexagonal wurtzite structure and are of good crystalline structure. Obtained crystallite sizes increased with annealing temperature and were in the range 14 nm to 29 nm. FTIR spectra show phenols, amines and aldehydes as the available reducing agents involved in the nanoparticle synthesis. The photoluminescence (PL) spectra show two emission peaks: a UV emission peak at 369 -381 nm indicating that the zinc oxide nanoparticles exhibited band-edge photoluminescence and a green emission peak at 523 nm – 538 nm suggesting the presence of defects from singly ionized oxygen vacancies. The PL peak intensities were dependent on the annealing temperatures with the UV- emission peaks for higher annealing temperatures exhibiting a spectral shift towards lower wavelengths. Plant leaf extracts concentration and the annealing temperatures used affect the structure and optical properties of the synthesized ZnO nanoparticles.

Published: January 2022

In this work, the elastic moduli of silica based borotellurite glass system with compositional formula; [(TeO2)0.7 (B2O3)0.3]1-x (SiO2)x with x= 0.0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3 and 0.4 was studied using theoretical models. Makishima and Mackenzie, bond compression, Rocherulle, and ring deformation models were employed in the calculation of the elastic moduli, Poisson ratio, packing density, dissociation energy, cross-link density, average stretching force constant and the glass network ring size of the studied glasses. The values of the elastic moduli obtained from the Makishima and Mackenzie model were found to be lower than those obtained from the Rocherulle model and the value from the bond compression model was reported to be highest among the three models. In all the models, the elastic moduli increased with an increase in the concentration of silica in the glass composition. Therefore, it satisfied the original intention of improving mechanical strength to achieve high Young modulus which is considered in glasses fiber drawing/ manufacturing.

Secularization and digital culture are the influencing aspects that define the characteristics of religious societies in the 21st century. As a formation of the history of social change, these two elements greatly determine the efforts of religion, in doing theology and church services at the present, in the term of digital theology. Indeed, It is determined by the surprising rise of the COVID-19 pandemic which forces religious efforts to deal with digital things. As a new experience, digital theology seeks a form as to how the social change made it. Elements such as secularization,  digital culture, and church formation become the important aspects to determine the direction of doing theology. Based on these new experiences, this paper will describe a sketch of how to doing digital theology in Indonesia, especially in the case of GMIT. With the theology of incarnation as the frame, digital theology puts the relational substance (God-human, among human relationships and between the real and digital world. As the digital world as a locus, digital theology therefore over a liquid digital church and the presensia-accompaniment model of a church mission to be the sketch of doing theology in the digital context in Indonesia.AbstrakSekularisasi dan kultur digital adalah dua elemen yang berpengaruh dalam ciri keberagamaan masyarakat religius di abad ke 21.

Ophthalmic treatments using contact lenses are now used by more and more specialists around the world. Improving contact lens (CL) materials is a condition that is constantly evolving. Contact lens materials are usually composed of polymer hydrogel or silicone hydrogel. The materials used for night contact lenses are gas permeable and they gradual flatten the center of the cornea which decreases the progression of myopia or myopic astigmatism. The aim of this study is to identify, in correlation with the chemical interactions between structural components of contact lenses and their biocompatibility with the surface layer and microtopography of the cornea or sclera, different incidents that occur in patients who have used rigid gas permeable contact lenses. The study was performed on a group of 10 patients who had a follow-up period between 4 and 6 years, who presented regularly for eye examinations. The following clinical parameters were analyzed: ocular refraction before and after wearing night contact lenses, types of contact lens materials, appearance of corneal topography, biomicroscopic examination of the anterior segment of the eye, keratometry, ocular comfort, as well as other incidents regarding this type of lenses. Difficulties caused by wearing contact lenses at night arose due to poor hygiene and maintenance in two cases or due to interruption of lens wear in one case.

Authors:   Chair of Production Engineering, Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, Cracow University of Technology, Morawski Marcin , Malec Marcin
Published: January 2022

Unmanned underwater vehicles which use biomimetic mechanisms are becoming increasingly useful in the realisation of tasks requiring silent and efficient propulsion. Complex fish kinematics are simplified to some extent and implemented in such vehicles. One of the essential fish behaviours is their ability to adjust their buoyancy using a swim bladder. This paper covers the issues concerning the implementation of artificial swim bladders as well as depth regulators in two underwater vehicles: biomimetic and hybrid. The control of vehicle depth through buoyancy change was examined in the computer simulation and in the experiment. Two types of artificial swim bladder were tested – a rigid cylinder with a piston and an elastic container with a water pump.
KELT-9 as an Eclipsing Double-lined Spectroscopic Binary: A Unique and Self-consistent Solution to the System
Authors: Pai Asnodkar Anusha , Wang 王 Ji 吉 , Gaudi B. Scott , Cauley P. Wilson , Eastman Jason D. , Ilyin Ilya , Strassmeier Klaus , Beatty Thomas
Published: January 2022

Transiting hot Jupiters present a unique opportunity to measure absolute planetary masses due to the magnitude of their radial velocity signals and known orbital inclination. Measuring planet mass is critical to understanding atmospheric dynamics and escape under extreme stellar irradiation. Here we present the ultrahot Jupiter system KELT-9 as a double-lined spectroscopic binary. This allows us to directly and empirically constrain the mass of the star and its planetary companion without reference to any theoretical stellar evolutionary models or empirical stellar scaling relations. Using data from the PEPSI, HARPS-N, and TRES spectrographs across multiple epochs, we apply least-squares deconvolution to measure out-of-transit stellar radial velocities. With the PEPSI and HARPS-N data sets, we measure in-transit planet radial velocities using transmission spectroscopy. By fitting the circular orbital solution that captures these Keplerian motions, we recover a planetary dynamical mass of 2.17 ± 0.56 M
J and stellar dynamical mass of 2.11 ± 0.78 M
⊙, both of which agree with the discovery paper. Furthermore, we argue that this system, as well as systems like it, are highly overconstrained, providing multiple independent avenues for empirically cross-validating model-independent solutions to the system parameters. We also discuss the implications of this revised mass for studies of atmospheric escape.
Sutured Scleral-Fixated Versus Anterior Chamber Intraocular Lens Implantation: A Meta-Analysis
Authors: Garg Anubhav , Lau Tsz Hin Alexander , Popovic Marko M. , Kertes Peter J. , Muni Rajeev H.
Published: January 2022

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE:

No consensus exists on the comparative efficacy and safety of sutured scleral-fixated (SSF) and anterior chamber (AC) intraocular lens (IOL) implantation. We aim to compare outcomes of these two techniques.

PATIENTS AND METHODS:

A systematic literature search of MEDLINE, Embase, and Cochrane CENTRAL was conducted (2005 to 2020). Studies comparing SSFIOLs with ACIOLs were included. Outcomes included corrected distance visual acuity and complications. A meta-analysis was conducted with a random effects model. Weighted mean differences and risk ratios with 95% CIs were computed.

RESULTS:

Seven hundred eighty-three eyes from nine studies were included. SSFIOLs had a significantly higher absolute postoperative spherical equivalent (weighted mean difference, 0.32; 95% CI, 0.03 to 0.60;
P
= .03; low certainty) and incidence of IOL decentration/subluxation (risk ratio, 2.69; 95% CI, 1.03 to 7.01;
P
= .04; moderate certainty) than ACIOLs. There was no difference in final corrected distance visual acuity (
P
= .26).

CONCLUSIONS:

SSFIOLs have a higher absolute postoperative spherical equivalent and incidence of IOL decentration/subluxation than ACIOLs. Future prospective studies are needed to confirm these findings.

In this study, a mathematical model for the differentiation of stem cells is proposed to understand the dynamics of cell differentiation in a complex network. For this, myeloid cells, which are differentiated from stem cells, are introduced in this study. We introduce the threshold quantity $ \mathcal{R}_{0} $ to understand the population dynamics of stem cells. The local stability analysis of three equilibria, namely $ (i) $ free equilibrium points, $ (ii) $ absence of stem and progenitor cells, and $ (iii) $ endemic equilibrium points are investigated in this study. The model is first formulated in non-fractional order and after that converted into a fractional sense by utilizing the Atangana-Baleanu derivative in Caputo (ABC) sense in the form of a non-singular kernel. The model is solved by using numerical techniques. It is seen that the myeloid cell population significantly affects the stem cell population.

Alors que les urgences hospitalières sont avant tout un dispositif de tri et de normalisation qui abrase l’expression des sujets qui y ont recours, elles sont aussi traversées par une incertitude fondamentale qui provient de la bizarrerie et de l’imprévisibilité des demandes des patients en crise qui déjouent toujours les attentes institutionnelles en termes de formulation des symptômes. L’article montre comment, en fonction de différents critères, la clinique qui se déploie aux urgences fait de ce lieu de soin tantôt un espace de gouvernementalité et d’assujettissement, tantôt un espace de subjectivation et d’émancipation. À partir d’une enquête ethnographique dans plusieurs services d’urgences, l’article étudie les différentes formes de la communication à l’œuvre dans la relation de soin qui s’instaure dans le contexte de la crise et de l’urgence. En conclusion, l’article fait l’hypothèse que toute forme de subjectivation ouverte par la crise ne peut paradoxalement se passer de dispositifs d’assujettissement sur lesquels prendre appui pour les subvertir ou du moins les assouplir. C’est l’idée de flottance de l’urgence.
Analyser la parole pour établir un diagnostic : perspectives du travail pluridisciplinaire entre médecins et linguistes
Authors: Gülich Elisabeth
Published: January 2022

Cet article fait partie de recherches effectuées par des neurologues et des linguistes. Le point de départ est une observation qu’un neurologue fait dans son travail clinique au cours d’entretiens avec des patients souffrant de crises épileptiques ou non épileptiques : il découvre des différences considérables entre leurs descriptions des crises et formule l’hypothèse qu’il y aurait un rapport entre le type de crise et le type de description. Tandis que l’attention des médecins porte normalement sur le contenu de ce que disent les patients, il s’agit ici d’observer comment ils le disent. La formulation est jugée pertinente pour l’élaboration d’un diagnostic. Comme l’examen médical des patients vise tout d’abord à déterminer si leurs crises sont épileptiques ou d’origine psychogène, l’objectif pratique de ces recherches est de développer une méthode supplémentaire pour contribuer au diagnostic différentiel. Le cas étudié ici est un exemple concret qui illustre le travail effectué par une équipe pluridisciplinaire et montre comment l’analyse linguistique peut servir aux médecins à mieux comprendre la parole du patient et sa valeur diagnostique.
La fonction patrimoniale du langage : de la relation de soin à la remédiation des troubles de la pragmatique chez des adolescents avec autisme sans DI
Authors: De Martino Sonia , Rey Véronique , Romain Christina , Poinso François
Published: January 2022

Un travail pluridisciplinaire (praticiens hospitaliers et linguistes) a été conduit en milieu hospitalier, pendant un an, auprès de patients qui présentent un Trouble Envahissant du Développement (TED) sans Déficience Intellectuelle (D.I.) ou un syndrome d’Asperger. L’équipe s’est questionnée sur la remédiation des troubles de la pragmatique auprès de cette population : Comment aider ces jeunes à élaborer un discours ? Comment améliorer voire créer une dynamique interactionnelle ? Nous avons proposé une nouvelle fonction du langage, la fonction patrimoniale du langage. Cette fonction permet la transmission ritualisée d’une technique langagière qui allie gestes vocaux, sons et sens. Les situations relationnelles de soin et leur mise en place ont été intégrées dans une dynamique de prise en charge, au sein d’un atelier de pragmatique, en employant la fonction patrimoniale du langage.
Négociations du soin entre médecins et parents d’enfants intersexes : les discours rapportés dans les dossiers médicaux
Authors: Marignier Noémie
Published: January 2022

Ce chapitre propose de mener une analyse des discours rapportés dans les dossiers médicaux d’enfants intersexes. On s’intéressera aux différentes manières dont les soignants retranscrivent leurs interactions avec les parents d’enfants intersexes. On montrera que les situations de désaccord entre soignants et parents, retranscrites au discours direct avec beaucoup plus de précision que les situations d’accord (prenant généralement la forme du discours narrativisé), contraignent les soignants à produire des discours explicites sur leurs choix thérapeutiques. La fonction d’information du dossier médical vis-à-vis de l’équipe soignante est alors doublée d’une fonction de justification des actes à accomplir et de délimitation de la place des différents acteurs du soin. Le dossier médical devient le lieu d’inscription de la réflexion des soignants, laissant apparaître leurs subjectivités et leurs représentations.
Un coup de cuillère de trop ?

Comment aider une personne âgée à se nourrir alors qu’elle ne le souhaite pas ? Faut-il la laisser tranquille et combien de temps ou convient-il de l’obliger ? Comment interroger les pratiques quotidiennes d’aide, penser ce dilemme et les désaccords entre le personnel d’un EHPAD ? Les pages qui suivent explorent le procès au prud’homme de Mme Fumet, aide médicale, soit une accumulation hétérogène de regards, d’écrits, de règlements, de témoignages, de discours, de cahiers de liaison, de textes qui forment un scénario afin d’entrer dans le droit. Notre choix théorique consiste à superposer les récits contradictoires, soit une sociologie narrative qui prend en charge les forces opposées pour rendre compte des relations de pouvoir dont elles sont l’objet. Ce faisant, les concepts de « vulnérabilité », « dignité », « harcèlement », « maltraitance » changent suivant les récits, les situations et les contextes. La jurisprudence procède de cette même méthode : démêler cet emmêlement.
«Книги памяти» жертв политических репрессий как исторический источник (1941-1945 гг.): aнализ информационного потенциала
Authors: Мишина Екатерина М.
Published: January 2022

L’article étudie les poursuites judiciaires pour crimes contre-révolutionnaires en RSFSR pendant la Grande Guerre patriotique. L’auteure utilise des « Livres du souvenir » des victimes de la terreur politique et des données de dossiers d’instruction comme principales sources d’information biographique sur ces victimes. Les données des « Livres du souvenir » fournissent une périodisation différente des répressions pendant la guerre pour trois groupes de régions selon qu’elles sont situées en première ligne ou à l’arrière. L’étude tend à prouver que l’évolution du profil social des victimes de la terreur depuis le début de la guerre. L’origine sociale et le passé politique non soviétique comptaient parmi les raisons susceptibles de faire accuser une personne d’agitation antisoviétique sans toutefois constituer la base principale de l’accusation comme ce fut le cas lors de l’« opération koulak » pendant la Grande Terreur. Pendant la guerre, les gens étaient accusés pour leur actes ou leurs déclarations, mais pas en raison de leur origine ou de leur passé politique. La plupart des victimes de la terreur pendant la guerre étaient des ouvriers et des kolkhoziens, les « éléments déclassés » ne représentant qu’un faible pourcentage de tous les condamnés et les éléments non ouvriers n’étant majoritaires que dans les statistiques de la Cour suprême.
Value, valuation, and price: The interest of Albion W. Small’s sociological work for industrial economics
Authors: Chassagnon Virgile , Haned Naciba , Vallet Guillaume
Published: January 2022

Industrial economics cannot be solely based on market prices, as this could lead to incorrect academic results and policy recommendations because the prices could provide distorted signals and thus diverge from socially efficient prices. To understand this fundamental principle of price formation in industrial economics, it is necessary to better integrate the social dimension of value and the determination of prices. This paper aims to present the thoughts of an underestimated social scientist from the turn of the nineteenth century, Albion W. Small. Essentially based on Small’s personal archives, our aim is to demonstrate to what extent his vision of the relationship between value, valuation, and price is relevant to industrial economics and to pave the way for new research in this field. Although Small considered that price depends on both the remuneration of factors and the relative scarcity of goods, he also determined that price formation always has a social dimension, which must be considered by economists.JEL classification: A12, B00, D20, D46.
Testing Stereopsis in Children
Authors: Kerber Kristen L.
Published: January 2022

Stereopsis develops very early in life and is thought to be present in a normally developing child by six months of age. In order to develop stereopsis, multiple components of visual development must be intact including visual acuity and bifoveal fixation. Stereopsis is the most sensitive way to assess sensory fusion but can be unreliable in very young age groups due to difficulty understanding the test or instructions. It is best to choose an option with global stereopsis (high level cortical stereo), as local stereopsis may overestimate ability due to available monocular cues. Global is created using random dot stereograms (RDS) – computer-generated patterns to create a stereoscopic form, while local contains line stereograms which create horizontal retinal image disparity giving the perception of depth. Stereopsis can be affected by strabismus, amblyopia, and other binocular vision dysfunctions that interfere with visual efficiency (especially in school-age children). The chapter discusses the most commonly used clinical tests of global and local stereopsis.
Pupil Examination in Children
Authors: Mantagos Iason
Published: January 2022

Pupillary evaluation is a crucial part of every pediatric eye exam. It provides information about the structure of the eye as well as the afferent and efferent function of the eyes. It remains a quick and efficient test in the ocular evaluation. This chapter reviews the relevant neuroanatomy and the different components of the pupillary exam. The light-reflex and swinging flashlight tests are reviewed, as well as how a reverse afferent pupillary defect is detected. Clinical examples and pearls are provided to help the reader better understand the different aspects of the exam.
