Dispersed urban-stormwater control improved stream water quality in a catchment-scale experiment
Authors: Walsh Christopher John , Imberger Moss , Burns Matthew J , Bos Darren G , Fletcher Tim D
Published: December 2021

Traditional approaches to urban drainage degrade receiving waters. Alternative approaches have potential to protect downstream waters and provide other benefits to cities, including greater water security. Their widespread adoption requires robust demonstration of their feasibility and effectiveness. We conducted a catchment-scale, before-after-control-reference-impact experiment to assess the effect of dispersed stormwater control on stream ecosystems. We used a variant of effective imperviousness (EI), integrating catchment-scale stormwater runoff impact and stormwater-control-measure (SCM) performance, as the measure of experimental effect. We assessed the response of water quality variables in 6 sites on 2 streams, following SCM implementation in their catchments. We compared changes in those streams over 7 years, as SCM implementation increased, to the 12 preceding years, and over the 19 years in 3 reference and 2 control streams. SCMs reduced phosphorus and nitrogen concentrations and temperature, and increased electrical conductivity; with effect size negatively correlated with antecedent rain. SCM-induced reductions in phosphorus and temperature were of a similar magnitude to increases from urban development, when assessed as a function of change in EI. Nitrogen reductions were observed, even though concentrations among sites were not correlated with EI, being more influenced by septic tank seepage. SCMs had no effect on suspended solids concentrations, which were lower in urban streams than in reference streams. This experiment strengthens the inference that urban stormwater drainage increases contaminant concentrations in urban streams, and demonstrates that such impacts are reversible and likely preventable. SCMs reduce contaminant concentrations by reducing the frequency and magnitude of uncontrolled drainage flows and augmenting reduced baseflows. Increased EC and reduced temperature are likely a result of increased contribution of groundwater to baseflows. The stormwater control achieved by the experiment did not fully return phosphorus or nitrogen concentrations to reference levels, but their responses indicate such an outcome is possible in dominant conditions (up to ~20 mm of 24-h antecedent rain). This would require nearly all impervious surfaces draining to SCMs with large retention capacity, thus requiring more downslope space and water demand. EI predicts stream water quality responses to SCMs, allowing better catchment prioritization and SCM design standards for stream protection.

Kedudukan Manusia Sebagai Subyek Pembangunan di Bidang Kesehatan
Authors: Dini
Published: December 2021

Dalam negara yang sedang berkembang terdapat siklus keadaan yang merupakan suatu lingkaran yang tak berujung, yang menghambat perkembangan masyarakat secara keseluruhan. Masalah kesehatan masyarakat di Indonesia umumnya disebabkan karena Rendahnya Tingkat Sosial Ekonomi masyarakat yang mengakibatkan Ketidakmampuan dan Ketidaktahuan dalam berbagai hal khususnya dalam bidang kesehatan dan perawatan dalam memelihara diri mereka sendiri ( Self Care ). Bila keadaan ini dibiarkan akan menyebabkan masalah kesehatan terhadap individu, keluarga, kelompok – kelompok dan masyarakat secara keseluruhan. Dan sebagai dampaknya adalah menurunnya Status Kesehatan Keluarga dan Masyarakat secara keseluruhan. Keadaan ini akan sangat berpengaruh terhadap Produktivitas keluarga dan masyarakat untuk menghasilkan sesuatu dalam memenuhi kebutuhan hidupnya, yang selanjutnya membuat kondisi sosial ekonomi keluarga dan masyarakat semakin rendah. Adam Curle (1970) ahli pengembangan masyarakat berpendapat bahwa : Sumber – sumber keterbelakangan masyarakat bukan terletak pada kurangnya pendayagunaan sumber – sumber ekonomi, tetapi pada penggunaan yang salah dari sumber daya manusiawi ( …… the wrong use of people…….). Dalam masyarakat itu sendiri sebenarnya terdapat suatu dinamika yang membuat mereka mampu bertahan dalam keadaan yang sulit dan hal itu sebenarnya merupakan potensi yang dapat dikembangkan untuk meningkatkan taraf hidupnya. Sampai seberapa jauh potensi itu telah berkembang, dapat dilihat dari keadaan perkembangan masyarakat itu sendiri. Pada masyarakat yang sudah berkembang, maka hal ini menunjukkan bahwa mereka telah dapat memanfaatkan potensi yang mereka miliki ; Sedangkan pada masyarakat yang belum berkembang berarti mereka belum banyak memanfaatkan potensi yang mereka miliki.

Published: December 2021

Dashboards are the ubiquitous means of data communication within organizations.Yet we have limited understanding of how they factor into data practices in the workplace, particularly for data workers who do not self-identify as professional analysts. We focus on data workers who use dashboards as a primary interface to data, reporting on an interview study that characterizes their data practices and the accompanying barriers to seamless data interaction.While dashboards are typically designed for data consumption, our findings show that dashboard users have far more diverse needs. To capture these activities, we frame data workers’ practices as data conversations:conversations with data capture classic analysis(asking and answering data questions), while conversations through and around data involve constructing representations and narratives for sharing and communication. Dashboard users faced substantial barriers in their data conversations: their engagement with data was often intermittent, dependent on experts, and involved an awkward assembly of tools. We challenge the visualization and analytics community to embrace dashboard users as a population and design tools that blend seamlessly into their work contexts

The good, the bad and the ugly: A qualitative secondary analysis into the impact of doping and anti-doping on clean elite athletes in five European countries
Authors: Martinelli Laura , Thrower Sam , Heyes Andrew , Boardley Ian , Backhouse Susan H , Petroczi Andrea
Published: December 2021

Background: Although a precise percentage of athletes doping has remained elusive, evidence to date suggest that the majority of athletes are ‘clean’. Protecting clean sport, and the rights of athletes to a clean sport environment, is at the centre of anti-doping policies. To better support and enable clean athletes and sport, an understanding of the clean athlete lifeworld is required. This study explores and discusses several ways that clean athletes have been and are affected by doping and anti-doping. Methods: Qualitative Secondary Analysis (QSA) was used to re-analyse and interpret 13 focus group transcripts generated from the ‘Research-Embedded Strategic Plan for Anti-Doping Education Clean Sport Alliance Initiative for Tackling Doping’ (RESPECT) project to explore the impact of doping and anti-doping on clean athletes (see Petroczi et al. 2021). The sample in the parent study included 82 self-declared clean elite athletes, active and recently retired, from Germany (n=23) Ireland (n=14), the Netherlands (n=15), Slovenia (n=14), and the UK (n=16), who collectively represented 36 different sports. Results: Reflexive thematic analysis generated three themes. The first overarching theme captured the harm done by clean athletes having to coexist with dopers (i.e., denied medals, money, moments and memories; altered expectations and perceptions of the self; incite suspicion). The second overarching theme highlighted how clean athletes are undermined by lenient and poor treatment of dopers and clean athletes respectively. The third overarching theme described the anxiety experienced by clean athletes over mistakes that could lead to anti-doping rules violations. Conclusion: The impacts of doping on clean athletes - direct or indirect - are experienced by all clean athletes in some way. The results indicate that current approaches to anti-doping rule compliance frequently undermine clean athletes and the perceive legitimacy of the anti-doping system. With considerable qualitative data on athletes’ views available, secondary data analysis offers a cost effective, quick, and feasible approach for anti-doping research.

Kelompok kerja dan komunikasi sebagai salah satu kunci agar fungsi implementasi dan pengarahan dapat berjalan secara efektif. Pada intinya kelompok kerja disusun agar keragaman individu dapat menjadi potensi yang terintegrasi dalam pencapaian tujuan, dan bukan malah sumber konflik yang akan menghambat dalam pencapaian organisasi. Oleh karena itu, selain kelompok kerja perlu disusun, faktor komunikasi antar pekerja, antar pemimpin dan bawahan, dan antar bagian dalam organisasi juga menentukan bagaimana kelompok kerja dapat berjalan secara efektif
Hermann Löns’ “Quintär” – an early approach to the geological stratigraphy of the Age of Humans and its significance in geosciences
Authors: Hornung Jahn
Published: December 2021

In 1908, Hermann Löns outlined the concept of a Quintär” (“Quintary period”) to describe geological and biological manifestations of the Age of Humans. His definition of the “Quintary” consisted of twocomponents: a lithostratigraphic (“Quintary deposits” or “Quintary stratum”), and a faunistic (“Quintary fauna”) one. With a view on the stratigraphic component, Löns already anticipated the approach of the 21st Century to establish a geological definition for the Age of Humans based on physical manifestations and geological evidence, that is nowadays reflected in the attempts to define the anthropocene. Transposed into modern terminology, the “Quintary stratum” is defined as a lithostratigraphic unit (Quintary Lithosome), that contains all deposits in which non-anthropogenic sedimentary processes have been replaced or modified by anthropogenic or technogenic activity. The Quintary Lithosome has a diachronous base and intercalates in its lower part vertically and laterally with non-anthropogenic deposits of the Holocene Series. The upper part, that correlates with the anthropocene series, has a global distribution. The Quintary Lithosome is exclusively defined for geological stratigraphies on Earth. It widely – though not totally – overlaps with the archaeosphere as a partial equivalent in archaeological stratigraphy. Previous suggestions to redefine the most recent period of Earth history by adopting a biostratigraphic scheme based on hominids and their cultural manifestations, are rejected herein for the realm of geological stratigraphy. However, for the context of archaeological stratigraphy, it is suggested to define the phase of cultural manifestations of hominins and their corresponding deposits as the Anthropian age and deposits, respectively.
The Association between Economic Inequality and Adolescents' Prosocial Behavior: Evidence from Brain Potentials and Genes
Authors: Wang Lin-Xin
Published: December 2021

The inherent neural mechanism in prosocial behavior and its developmental trajectory are inadequately understood. To address the above gaps, a two-pronged empirical approach, such as experimental approach (e.g., evidence from event-related potentials) and longitudinal questionnaire approach (e.g., latent growth model), is urgently needed to depict a more complete picture of this phenomenon. While both the experimental approach and the correlational approach have their strengths and limitations, they complement one another. In study 1, I sought to replicate prior research and reexamine the relation between SES and adolescents' prosocial behaviors in the ERPs experiment. In study 2, I intend to establish empirical support for the interaction between economic inequality and SES on adolescents' prosocial behavior and the underlying neural mechanism. In these studies, I manipulate the economic inequality and SES in the laboratory experiment to draw causal inferences. Considering the limited external validity of the experiment, study 3 aims to provide longitudinal support for the processing mechanism that explains how economic inequality and SES affect the developmental trajectory of adolescents' prosocial behavior.
The Effect of Preference Learning on Context Effects in Multi-alternative, Multi-attribute Choice
Authors: Liu Yanjun , Trueblood Jennifer S
Published: December 2021

Within the domain of preferential choice, it has long been thought that context effects, such as the attraction and compromise effects, arise due to the constructive nature of preferences and thus should not emerge when preferences are stable. We examined this hypothesis with a series of experiments where participants had the opportunity to experience selected alternatives and develop more enduring preferences. In our tasks, the options are presented in a description-based format so that participants need only learn their preferences for various options rather than the objective values of those options. Our results suggest that context effects can still emerge when stable preferences form through experience. This suggests that multi-alternative, multi-attribute decisions are likely influenced by relative evaluations, even when participants have the opportunity to experience options and learn their preferences. We hypothesize what was learned from experience in our tasks is the weights for various attributes. Through model simulations, we show that the observed choice patterns are well captured by a model with unequal attribute weights. A secondary finding is that the direction of observed context effects is opposite to standard effects and appears to be quite robust. Model simulations show that reserved effects can arise through various processes including representational noise and sensitivity to advantages and disadvantages when comparing options.

Based on lessons from working group sessions with 34 experts, we address recent challenges and desiderata of CCS research while reflecting upon its future development and expansion. Four major fields of action proved particularly relevant in these discussions: First, challenges related to a reflected but integrated CCS methodology; second, challenges related to a further elaboration on the theoretical perspectives on CCS; third, challenges related to the formation and further institutionalization of CCS as fundamental basis for further scientific exchange, progress and standardization; and fourth, implications for empirical communication research, particularly highlighting the relevance of wicked problems as research incubators driving further progress.
Predictive Algorithms in the Delivery of Public Employment Services
Authors: Körtner John , Bonoli Giuliano
Published: December 2021

With the growing availability of digital administrative data and the recent advances in machine learning, the use of predictive algorithms in the delivery of labour market policy is becoming more prevalent. In public employment services (PES), predictive algorithms are used to support the classification of jobseekers based on their risk of long-term unemployment (profiling), the selection of beneficial active labour market programs (targeting), and the matching of jobseekers to suitable job opportunities (matching). In this chapter, we offer a conceptual introduction to the applications of predictive algorithms for the different functions PES have to fulfil and review the history of their use up to the current state of the practice. In addition, we discuss two issues that are inherent to the use of predictive algorithms: algorithmic fairness concerns and the importance of considering how caseworkers will interact with algorithmic systems and make decisions based on their predictions.

The article aimed to determine whether the legal regulations in the field of the statutory and contractual pre-emption right of a tenant of agricultural real estate provide adequate protection to dependent owners in terms of the possibility of acquiring such land and conducting business activity on it. Secondly, the paper indicated legal problems related to statutory and contractual pre-emption right of a tenant of agricultural real estate and suggested how those problems could be handled. In the beginning, the considerations focused on the statutory pre-emption right for agricultural real estate. It referred to a subjective and objective scope of the right in question, and an attempt was made to determine whether the leased land can be sold to a third party due to the obligation to run a farm in person (only the sale contract allows for exercising the pre-emptive right). Failure to perform the indicated obligations might result in the case being referred to the court by the National Center for Agricultural Support. The second part of the article discussed the contractual pre-emption right for agricultural real estate. The author pointed out the possible concurrence of the statutory pre-emption right of the National Support Centre for Agriculture and the contractual pre-emption right of the lessee. The paper also referred to the problems related to implementing this right due to the requirements that the buyer must meet. In summary, the author, among other things, pointed out the fact that the importance of the statutory pre-emption right of the tenant of agricultural real estate had been diminishing over the years. The position of the lessee of agricultural land in terms of purchasing agricultural land is weakening. Currently, in practice, tenants may rarely use the pre-emption right. The author proposed the introduction of a provision to the Act on Shaping the Agricultural System on an additional consent of the National Support Centre for Agriculture for the sale of real estate under a lease.

Since they have become indispensable in various technological applications and a powerfulsource for generating energy in thermoelectric devices, Lithium-based alloys symbolize the topicof many experimental and theoretical reports. Hence, LiAlX(X = C, Si, Ge, Sn) materials representthe main research in this study. Different interesting properties such as the effect of pressure onthe band gap as well as the elastic parameters and the thermoelectric efficiency of these materialswere investigated using the full potential linearized augmented plane wave (FP-LAPW) method.LiAlX alloys were found to be semiconducting with indirect band gaps. When studying themechanical properties, we found that LiAlC alloy is stable against a wide range of pressurechanges (90 GPa), while the rest three systems preserve their mechanical stability in a moderaterespectively range of 40, 50 and 30 GPa, respectively. The semiconducting band gap for eachpossible transition have been calculated in a range of different pressures using both GGA andmBJ-GGA approximations. The results ended up revealing a decaying trend of the indirect gapalong Г-X direction with the increase of pressure. High values of the power factor were achievedand a large figure of merit (almost 0.7 for all systems) was calculated at 600K, which makesthese Li-based alloys very auspicious in the thermoelectric field applications.
Response: Intimacies as Method
Authors: Lowe Lisa
Published: December 2021

This response essay reflects upon “intimacies as method,” which conceives connections between asymmetrical histories and processes that are more often examined separately in the received historiography. Intimacies as method emphasizes relation, convergence, and interdependency, and attends to residual and emergent knowledges that may be elided by the dominant disciplines in which we work. Identifying such connections often means breaking with customary modes for organizing history and reading across disparate archives, canons, genres, scales, and locations.

Published: December 2021

The Krueng Peusangan watershed in the Aceh Province, Indonesia, has an important role in the daily life of residents in the surrounding areas. The watershed serves as a supply of clean water, shelter, food sources, and sources of income for hundreds of thousands of people. Forest encroachment activities, mining, plantations, and land conversion have interrupted the watershed balance. These various activities cause threats of loss of forest area, biodiversity extinction, water crisis, flooding, human-animal conflict, and also global warming and food crisis. Therefore, this article analyses the law and policies issued by the Central, Provincial, and Regency/City Governments related to the management of the Krueng Peusangan Watershed and to examine the legal framework needed for watershed protection and management. This type of research is normative legal research using the regulatory, conceptual, and case approaches. The results revealed that the existing legal framework has not fully protected watershed rescue. The policies issued are still partial and have not been integrated on a regional or sectoral basis. This paper suggests that the Government of Aceh and Regency/City Governments to revise several Qanun, i.e., the Mid-Term Development Plan Qanun, the Watershed Management Qanun, Strategic Environmental Assessment Qanun, Qanun of Environmental Protection and Management Plan, and laws and regulations in the environmental, forestry, plantation and mining sectors.
High-quality journalism in the face of Donald Trump’s theory of electoral fraud: the information strategy of the media in the 2020 US presidential election
Authors: Pérez-Curiel Concha , Domínguez-García Ricardo , Velasco-Molpeceres Ana-María
Published: December 2021

The institutional political crisis is posited to be a great risk facing twenty-first-century societies. The instability of democracy, the increase in misinformation in electoral processes, and distrust by citizens are facts that are confirmed by studies such as The Economist Intelligence Unit (2018) or Freedom in the World (2018). In the context of the most recent US elections (3-Nov-2020), President Donald Trump initiated a dialog focused on an allegation of electoral fraud that mobilized the masses and culminated in an assault on the Capitol. In parallel, Twitter endorses the role of journalism (@ABC, @AP, @CBSNews, @CNN, @FoxNews, @NBCNews, and @Reuters) as a gatekeeper to lies on the Internet. The aim of this study is to determined how the media treated the electoral process on their Twitter accounts, analyze the strategies they followed to combat Trump’s fallacy, and verify the extent to which they contributed or not to the spread of the conspiracy theory. Using a general sample of tweets (n1 = 3,577), we applied a comparative content analysis methodology with a three-pronged approach (quantitative-qualitative-discursive) based on the use of keyword indicators (n2 = 34,430). The results confirm that the media offered verified content on the electoral process, using different sources and avoiding reproduction of Donald Trump’s delegitimization speech. In general, they engaged in a fight against the theory of electoral fraud, against disinformation, and against the polarization of citizens, which are factors that have marked a scenario of doubt about the future of democracy.

Published: December 2021

Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) have significantly poorer functional outcomes and greater mortality after suffering a stroke. The present study aimed to identify the prognostic factors of an unfavorable outcome of the ischemic stroke in patients with CKD.

Methods and subjects. The current study was designed retrospectively and performed with data of patients who were hospitalized due to ischemic stroke to the neurological department. A complex clinical and neuroimaging investigation was carried out in 65 patients (30 men and 35 women) aged 53 to 81 years (mean age – (67.7 ± 5.9) years) with acute stroke and CKD. Patients underwent all the necessary ancillary investigations according to guidelines. According to the clinical outcome on the 21-st day by the modified Rankin scale (mRS) all patients were divided into two groups: 1-st –favorable stroke outcome (mRS=0-3) – 34 (52.3%), 2-nd – unfavorable stroke outcome – (mRS=4-6) – 31 (47.7%).

Results. During comparing the basic characteristics of both groups, it was revealed that patients with unfavorable functional outcomes were almost twice as likely to have diabetes mellitus (51.6% vs. 26.5%, p<0.037) and atrial fibrillation (41.9% vs. 17.6%, p<0.032). In age-and sex-adjusted multifactor logistic regression it was found that ischemic stroke unfavorable outcome is associated with diabetes mellitus (OR – 2.5, CI: 1.6-8.3; p=0.014), atrial fibrillation – 2.7, CI: 0.7-9.6; p=0.043), dialysis therapy (OR – 3.4, CI: 2.3-8.1; p=0.007), GFR <42 ml/min/1.73 m2 (OR – 2.7, CI: 2.1-7.8; p=0.003).

Conclusions. Determining prognostic factors of unfavorable course of the ischemic stroke in patients with CKD allows to optimize the management of such patients in the acute period of ischemic stroke and improve the prognosis.

Published: December 2021

The incidence and prevalence of obesity are increasing rapidly throughout the world. Various methods have been developed to evaluate obesity. A body shape index (aBSI) is based on waist circumference adjusted for height and weight. High BSI values have been found to be associated with early mortality. It is known that obesity is associated with inflammation and cardiovascular diseases. In this study, we examined the relationship between aBSI, inflammatory markers such as C-reactive protein and interleukin-6 and cardiovascular disease in patients with stage 3-4 chronic kidney disease.

Methods. One hundred twenty patients were enrolled in this cross-sectional observational study. The mean aBSI value was 0.0870. Patients were divided into 2 groups according to the mean value of aBSI as there is no currently defined cut-off value for BSI. Those with aBSI ≤ 0.087 were allocated to group I, and those with aBSI> 0.0870 to group II.

Results. Patients in group II had more cardiovascular disease than in group I. In partial Spearman correlation analysis, the presence of cardiovascular disease was correlated with aBSI (r = 0.36, p = 0.0001). aBSI higher than 0.0986 predicted cardiovascular disease in our cohort: the area under the curve (CI 95%) for aBSI was 0.715 (0.602-0.829).

Conclusions. The relationship between aBSI and inflammation could not be shown. But we found that high aBSI is associated with increased cardiovascular disease. Further studies are needed to recommend the routine clinical use of aBSI as a cardiovascular disease marker.

Published: December 2021

Abstract. The aim of the study was to analyze the characteristics of serum concentrations of oxidative stress (OS) markers depending on the quantitative assessment of comorbidity and taking into account the most informative indicators of OS, to prospectively assess changes in comorbid status, death rates and individual comorbid conditions in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) treated with hemodialysis (HD).

Methods. The cohort prospective open-label study included 156 patients with ESRD, treated with HD. The study was conducted in two stages. In the first – the structure and quantitative assessment of comorbid diseases, determination of serum concentrations of oxidative stress (OS) markers and their analysis depending on the comorbid status were studied. On the second – taking into account the defined threshold values (Cut-off) of the most informative markers of the OS, an assessment of changes in comorbid status, frequency of comorbid conditions and fatal events done. A modified polymorbidity index (MPI) was calculated to assess comorbid status. The concentration of OS serum markers was determined by spectrophotometric method. Statistical analysis was performed by using "MedCalc", version 19.3 (Ostend, Belgium).

Results. Serum concentrations of all prooxidant markers were significantly higher and antioxidant markers were significantly lower in the HD patients with high comorbid status compared to those of patients with low comorbidity (p<0.0001). Correlation analysis between MIP and the studied OS markers showed that the largest correlation (rho=0.874) was established with the serum concentration of malondialdehyde (MDAs). During the observation period in the group of patients with a concentration of MDAs > 668.72 μmol/ml found a significant, compared with the group with a biomarker content ≤ 668.72 μmol/ml, an increase in the proportion of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) (by 81.84 % vs 28.48 %; p<0.0001), cardiovascular diseases (CVD) (by 56.0 % vs 36.4 %; p=0.019) and cerebrovascular (CEVD) diseases (by 73.33 % vs 30.42 %; p<0.0001). The proportion of patients with fractures in the group of patients with MDAs > 668.72 μmol/l increased fourfold (p=0.0140). The increase in MIP is 34.11 % vs 17.1 % (p<0.0001), five-year cumulative survival – 45.3 % vs 63.3 % (p=0.0312; HR – 2,1527, 95% CI: 1,2458 –3,7199), five-year CV survival – 61,6 % vs 80.8 % (p=0.0094; HR – 2.7955, 95% CI: 1.3664 – 5.7191) in groups with MDAs > 668.72 and ≤ 668.72 μmol/ml, respectively.

Conclusions. In patients with ESRD, treated with HD, serum concentrations of MDAs > 668.72 μmol/l is a biochemical determinant of a significant increase, in the medium term, the number of comorbid conditions, deaths, fatal CV and CEVD events, the proportion of patients with COPD, fractures, CVD and CEVD, reduction of cumulative and CV survival.

The modern education system is aimed at the formation of a highly educated, intellectually developed personality with a holistic view of the picture of the world, with an understanding of the depth of connections between phenomena and processes. Integration in modern society explains the need for integration in education. Integration provides an opportunity for self-realization, self-expression, creativity of the teacher, promotes the disclosure of abilities.

The use of an integrative approach in teaching is determined by the complex of needs of modern education.

Integration is a multivalued concept, and a leading trend in modern education, and a real need of the time. Integration is central to the integrative approach. The purpose of this article is to reveal the essence and possibilities of using an integrative approach in creating courses in chemistry.

Today, the use of computer technologies in education seems to be necessary, therefore, an important task of a modern teacher is to show students the capabilities of ICT. The availability of such courses will increase the productivity of the learning process. And so, integration is a prerequisite for the modern educational process.

It is necessary to highlight the functional components that characterize the dynamics of educational technology, integrated into the structural components. The main functional components that correspond to the structural components: goals, tools, effective products - as goals, organizational, managerial and performance evaluation capabilities. The teacher should be aware of the patterns of integration processes used in chemical and educational educational technologies.

Esse estudo transversal incluiu 15 atletas de futsal masculino (21,80±3,21 anos), sendo submetidos aos seguintes testes funcionais: a) avaliação da função dos músculos extensores do quadril (Single leg bridge test); b) avaliação da função lombopélvica/CORE (Prone bridge test); c) avaliação do desempenho funcional de membros inferiores (single hop test, timed hop test e side hop test); d) avaliação da amplitude de movimento (ADM) de dorsiflexão do tornozelo (teste de Lunge).  Como resultados, a maior parte dos atletas apresentaram alto risco em relação à função muscular de extensores de quadril, em ambos os lados (53,3%), assim como déficit na função lombopélvica/CORE (66,7%), além de déficits em relação ao desempenho funcional de ambos os membros inferiores (57,14%). Os atletas apresentaram importantes fatores de risco para lesões, e sugere-se a relevância da construção de ações preventivas nesse contexto.

Jakie zapożyczenie i skąd? O wyrazie winohrad, winograd ‘winnica’, ‘winorośl’, ‘winogrono’
Authors: Rembiszewska Dorota Krystyna , Siatkowski Janusz
Published: December 2021

Przedmiotem omówienia jest rozstrzygnięcie problemu, jak traktować wyrazy, które mogą być pożyczkami leksykalnymi lub adaptacją fonetyczną. Zagadnienie to zostało omówione na przykładzie wyrazu winohrad, winograd ‘winnica’, ‘winorośl’, winogrono’ – dawna pożyczka germańska, która przeniknęła do języków wschodniosłowiańskich.

Zgromadzone w dotychczasowych opracowaniach bogate materiały, w tym z polskich słowników historycznych i gwarowych, pozwalają na ustalenie, w jakim stopniu wpływał tu język czeski, a w jakim języki wschodniosłowiańskie. Przytaczamy więc bardzo bogaty materiał źródłowy, starając się ustalić, czy można rozdzielić wpływy czeskie i ruskie.

Ostatecznie, analiza danych historycznych i dialektalnych pozwala wnioskować, że należy przyjąć dwa źródła zapożyczenia – z języka czeskiego i języka ukraińskiego, które mogły ulegać różnym adaptacjom fonetycznym.
Епізод з історії польсько-українських мовних контактів (іменник “гембель” ‘клопіт’)
Authors: Вербовий Микола
Published: December 2021

У статті проаналізовані особливості входження іменника гебель ‘рубанок’ до складу української мови. Німецька назва до української потрапила через польську мову. Засвоєння чужого слова українською мовою відбувалося неоднаково у східних та західних український говірках: безпосередній неперервний контакт з польською мовою для західних говірок обмежував кількість можливих змін в іменнику, а для східних українських говірок уже опосередкований польський вплив уможливив зміни як у формі (поява секундарного сонорного), так і в семантиці слова. У результаті польсько-українських мовних контактів постав власне український іменник гембель ‘клопіт’.

Galicyjska nieobyczajność końca XIX i pierwszych dekad XX wieku w świetle wybranych dokumentów epoki
Authors: Wójtowicz-Marszał Sylwia
Published: December 2021

W artykule został poruszony problem nieobyczajności drugiej połowy XIX i początku XX wieku na terenie Galicji Wschodniej. Nieobyczajność nazywana jest również nierządem, prostytucją, handlem żywym towarem kobietami i dziećmi, białym niewolnictwem. Powszechny na terenie Galicji Wschodniej proceder prostytucji nie był wynikiem dynamicznych procesów uprzemysłowienia czy spektakularnej urbanizacji jak w Europie Zachodniej. Wchodząca od 1772 r. w skład imperium Habsburgów Galicja właśnie z uwagi na prowincjonalny oraz graniczny charakter skazana była na polityczny konflikt wewnętrzny, zastój gospodarczy i zacofanie. Wszechobecne ubóstwo, popychające ludność do migracji, generowało takie destrukcyjne zjawiska społeczne, jak bezdomność, przemoc, sieroctwo oraz nierząd. Galicja dzieliła w tym zakresie los innych skolonizowanych ziem Europy Środkowo-Wschodniej, skąd zazwyczaj werbowali swoje ofiary handlarze żywym towarem. Problem nie zniknął po upadku państw centralnych, stanowił też poważne wyzwanie dla władz II Rzeczpospolitej, w skład której w 1918 r. weszła Galicja Wschodnia. Inspiracją do napisania tekstu była znaleziona w Archiwum Historycznym miasta Lwowa korespondencja metropolity Kościoła greckokatolickiego Andrzeja Szeptyckiego oraz cykl artykułów ukraińskiego prozaika Jurija Wynnyczuka pt. Z historii ukraińskiego dna.
Virgo et Mater. Maryja a Kościół w duszpasterskiej myśli Ambrożego z Mediolanu i Augustyna z Hippony
Authors: Kamczyk Wojciech
Published: December 2021

Parabola Maryja-Kościół stanowi interesujący wątek rozwijających się we wczesnym chrześcijaństwie teologii i duszpasterstwa. Wielcy doktorzy Kościoła zachodniego, Ambroży z Mediolanu i Augustyn z Hippony, inspirując się dotychczasowymi refleksjami, rozwijają tę myśl i starają się wykorzystać duszpastersko. Niniejszy artykuł podejmuje próbę zestawienia myśli obu autorów, akcentując zwłaszcza ich pasterskie nauczanie. Dostrzegając źródła powiązania myśli mariologicznej z eklezjologiczną w postaciach biblijnych niewiast, rozważa dwa główne jej aspekty: dziewictwo i macierzyństwo zarówno Maryi, jak i Kościoła. Myśla ta stanowiła nie tylko przedmiot teoretycznych rozważań, lecz także ważny element pasterskiego nauczania obu biskupów.

Akıllı otel uygulamalarının sürdürülebilirliğe etkileri: kış turizmi otellerine yönelik nitel bir araştırma
Authors: KIVILCIM Burcu
Published: December 2021

Otel işletmelerinde sürdürülebilirliğe katkı sağlayan yenilenebilir kaynakların kullanımı ve tasarrufu, atıkların ayrıştırılması ve geri dönüşümünün sağlaması gibi uygulamalar, günümüzde teknolojiyle hizmet entegrasyonu şeklinde gerçekleştirilmektedir. Akıllı otel uygulamaları olarak adlandırılan bu uygulamaların belirlenerek sürdürülebilirliğe olan etkilerinin saptanması amaçlanan bu çalışmada, Erzurum ilinde bulunan 4 ve 5 yıldızlı otel işletmesi yöneticisiyle yüz yüze görüşme gerçekleştirilmiştir. Görüşme sonunda elde edilen veriler nitel analiz yöntemi olan betimsel analiz ile incelenmiş ve bulgular yorumlanmıştır. Araştırma sonucunda yöneticilerin akıllı otel uygulamalarına yönelik düşüncelerinin olumlu olduğu, otel işletmelerinde akıllı otel uygulamaları olarak enerji tasarrufu, atık yönetimi ve mobil uygulamaların kullanıldığı, fakat yeterli düzeyde kullanılmadığı, dolayısıyla sürdürülebilirliğe etkilerinin olmasına rağmen yeterli düzeyde olmadığı sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Sonuçlar ışığında alanyazına ve turizm sektörüne bir takım önerilerde bulunulmuştur.
Turizm alanında çalışan akademisyenlerin öğreticilik becerilerinin değerlendirilmesi
Authors: OFLAZ Musa , ÖZER Bayram
Published: December 2021

Yükseköğretim kurumlarında ders veren akademik personelin öğretim becerilerinin değerlendirilmesi ve ortaya çıkan eksikliklerin giderilmesi çok önemlidir. Bu kapsamda Turizm Eğitimi alanında görev yapan akademisyenlerin öğreticilik becerileri değerlendirilmeye çalışılmıştır. Balıkesir Üniversitesi Turizm Fakültesi’ndeki 17 akademisyene ve öğrenim gören 33 Lisans ve lisansüstü öğrenciye Millî Eğitim Bakanlığı’nın Öğretmen Yeterlikleri çalışmasından alınmış 15 açık uçlu soru sorulmuştur. Sorular için anket formu oluşturulmuş ve yüz yüze görüşme tekniği kullanılmıştır. Akademisyenler ve öğrencilerin öğreticilik becerileri ile ilgili sorulara vermiş oldukları cevaplar genel olarak olumlu (akademisyenlerin %80’i, öğrencilerin %67’si) olsa da akademisyenlerin öz değerlendirme yapma, materyal hazırlama, bireysel farklılıkları dikkate alma, ders dışı etkinlikler düzenleme ve faklı ölçme teknikleri kullanma konusunda eksikliklerinin olduğunu söylemek mümkündür.
