Exploring the contribution of interpersonal emotion regulation to pre-service EFL teachers' sustainable professional development and wellbeing
Authors: WANG MIAOMIAO , WANG NAME
Published: December 2023

There is a large body of research endorsing the role of interpersonal skills and emotion regulation in English as a foreign language teachers’ professionalism and psychological states. However, scant research has been done on pre-service EFL teachers’ interpersonal emotion regulation (IER) and the way it can contribute to their sustainable professional development (SPD) and sense of wellbeing. To bridge the gap, this qualitative study examined the perceptions of 34 Chinese pre-service EFL teachers regarding such an interplay using a semi-structured interview. The results of content and thematic analysis revealed that IER strategies used by pre-service EFL teachers had different contributions to their SPD and wellbeing by establishing ‘a supportive learning environment’, ‘strong classroom rapport’, ‘interpersonal communication’, and ‘emotional literacy’. Furthermore, it was indicated that the participants used different activities and practices to regulate and balance their IER strategies to gain SPD and wellbeing including ‘self-oriented’, ‘other-oriented’, and ‘professional development’ activities. The study ends in a discussion of the findings and presents a number of conclusions and future lines of research considering the impact of interpersonal emotions and their regulation on EFL teachers’ professionalism and wellbeing.

Authors: MASHHADI AMIR , HUSSEIN MUSTAFA ALI , FAHAD AHMED KADHUM
Published: December 2023

This study explores how mobile learning (m-learning) can serve as a valuable resource for the professional development of Iraqi English as a Foreign Language (EFL) teachers in higher education during the COVID-19 pandemic. Utilizing an extended Technology Acceptance Model (TAM), the research investigates the model's fit, structural relationships between variables, and potential moderating effects of gender and academic rank. Findings revealed that Iraqi EFL teachers generally demonstrated positive attitudes toward m-learning adoption, with identified challenges in self-efficacy and ease of use. Gender analysis indicated that females exhibited higher ease of use, self-efficacy, enjoyment, and positive attitudes and intentions toward m-learning adoption. Higher-ranked teachers perceived m-learning as more useful. The extended TAM displayed a good fit to empirical data, revealing significant positive relationships between variables. Gender did not moderate these relationships, but academic rank played a substantial role. The findings guide strategies for targeted professional development, addressing technical support concerns, and designing engaging experiences to facilitate successful m-learning integration in higher education, considering the unique needs and challenges of Iraqi EFL teachers.

Published: December 2023

Virtual education has exploded in recent years and become even more central to university and school life globally, especially with the advent of Covid-19. With the rise in popularity of virtual meetings, an increasing number of teachers use them to teach English speaking as an alternative to face-to-face instruction. This article examines the attitudes of teachers and the features of virtual meeting platforms that help and hinder the teaching of speaking skills. The study was conducted at several universities in South Sulawesi, Indonesia, based on a survey of twelve teachers. Seven teachers have recognized virtual meetings for their positive attitudes toward their use in teaching English speaking. Virtual meeting applications raise the most critical concerns regarding limited expression and limited variation. The most popular platforms among teachers are Zoom and Google Meet.

Authors: Juspaningsih Juspaningsih
Published: December 2023

The goal of the current study was to provide more information on one-on-one instruction as a learning approach for EFL learners' English speaking difficulties. The study's main interests were the EFL students' perceptions of one-on-one instruction and the speaking skills they acquired from it. This study employed a qualitative research design. Semi-structured interviews, documentation and speaking activity observation were used as data gathering methods. The researcher included EFL students who take speaking-focused courses at an English course in Makassar in the data collection process. There were ten EFL students available for an interview. After gathering the data, the researcher examined the data using three steps of data analysis; data reduction, data display and conclusion drawing/verification. The findings of this study showed that EFL students had difference opinions about one-on-one instruction. One-on-one instruction, according to them, is good, great, effective, efficient, fun, adaptable, and peaceful. Then, there were certain speaking exercises that EFL learners typically pick up along the learning process to hone their speaking skills. These speaking exercises included role plays, retelling movies, describing images, speaking games like dominos and speaking boards, question and answer sessions, telling daily activities, sharing experiences, outlining preferences, and talking about planning.

Published: December 2023

Resistive-loaded dipoles of various lengths, for different frequency ranges, are widely used in GPR suvey of subsurface ground structures. At the same time, in most cases, a transmitter with a fixed pulse length is used, which does not always allow you to fully use the characteristics of the antenna. Directional antennas for high-power georadars with amplitudes of the generated signal of 5 kV and higher are considered. A method of matching a directional resistively loaded antenna with a transmitter, implemented using a gas-filled spark gap, is proposed, while some elements are transferred from the transmitter to the antenna and resistors of a resistively loaded dipole are part of a pulse generator. As a result, the antenna is aligned with the pulse duration and produces more efficient electromagnetic wave radiation. Also, the antenna design allows you to select the necessary directional pattern by selecting either the maximum of the main lobe, or maximize the side lobes. The use of a metal shield reduces the emission of electromagnetic radiation to the operator of the georadar, and may allow to increase the radiated power of classical georadars and, consequently, increase their dynamic range.

Islamic Tibb and Soviet Medicine: Trajectories, Resiliency and Appeal of Indigenous Medical Practitioners in Central Asia, 1921–1991
Authors: Latypov Alisher
Published: December 2023

This article explores the trajectories of the encounter of Soviet state and its ‘modern,’ ‘scientific’ medicine with Islamic tibb in Central Asia, providing an overview of the different facets and manifestations of these pathways throughout the lifespan of the Soviet Union. The survey elucidates how the initial expansion of Soviet medicine followed by a later erosion of the Soviet healthcare system came into play to underline the complex relationships of Soviet health workers and indigenous medical practitioners as well as their rivalry and negotiations for legitimacy and authority across different settings and contexts. It argues that by virtue of castigating tibb as a remnant of the ‘backward past’ as well as demonising and suppressing tabibs, Soviet medical authorities eventually appropriated the traditional medical knowledge of the region and denigrated Central Asian indigenous medicine to the realm of ‘non-traditional’ by the end of the Soviet era.

Published: December 2023

This study replicates and extends Kavanagh et al.'s 2023 seven-country research, highlighting the correlation between support for religious freedom and ingroup identification and vivid recall of pivotal ingroup events. The original research linked group psychology with support for leaders bridging sectarian divides but relied on online data. This study administered the survey instrument in person with 1,506 individuals in The Gambia, Pakistan, Tanzania, and Uganda. In line with theoretical models, we found that group identification, identity fusion, and vivid recall of an ingroup event positively correlate with barrier-crossing leadership and support for religious freedom. Crucially, vivid recall of religious experiences and the reported impact on personal and group identity were found to be associated with broad support for religious freedom. These findings suggest the possibility that recalling religious experiences could be leveraged to help promote mutual respect and interfaith harmony. This research helps to clarify prior findings and suggests new approaches for fostering religious tolerance.

The status and distribution of birds in Nepal is being updated as the number of bird species and records increase. We present a distributional update of ashy minivet Pericrocotus divaricatus, a rare winter visitor to Nepal. We made an opportunistic sighting of the species on 25 February 2022 during a bird survey along the Hanumante River, Bhaktapur, Nepal. AM had been previously recorded in Nepal at Koshi Tappu Wildlife Reserve and at Sauraha, Chitwan District, but not in the Kathmandu Valley. Thus, our record of this species in Bhaktapur (Kathmandu Valley) is a new distributional record of the species in Nepal. Rapid change in land use is posing threats to bird habitats; therefore, we recommend maintaining a continuous green corridor along the Hanumante River.

The basis of organizational and legal form of the pension system during the new economic policy was social insurance, who was in charged the People's Commissariat of Labor. However, the founded of the pension business took place within the framework of the People's Commissariat of Social Security. Continuing to remain wards sobes and receiving pension payments, a certain proportion of these individuals in social status belonged to workers and employers, albeit with a prefix "ex". That is why the social protection of these categories of people was carried out with the participation of both People's Commissariats (labor and social security), in certain shares.Among the social groups of pensioners of the period mentioned were: invalids of civil and imperialist wars, victims of counterrevolution, Red Army soldiers and members of their families, academpensionaries, disabled workers and the like. So, users of pensions or receivers social assistance were recognized as the pensioners, which were victim to civil and imperialist wars and personal pensioners .he organization of social protection of people with disabilities inevitably led to competition between the two institutions, whose main goal were to become independent. Despite the fact that each of the People's Commissariats had their own contingent of servicemen, there were questions, which demanded joint activities, they were accompanied by the greatest contradictions. The result of this joint service was that the supplements to pensions were financed from the state budget, and the basic amount of pensions - at the expense the permanent disability insurance fund. This situation was based, first of all, on the difficulties of the state in the conditions of market transformations, which affected the stability of the provision of these categories. Legislative norms often changed not only the terms and procedure of provision, but also the social composition of the contingent provided.
que traumatiza o corpo
Authors: FARIA JULIANA SPERANDIO
Published: December 2023

O trauma está na origem da neurose e na base da demanda de análise, mas também nos momentos em que o sujeito é invadido pelo real. Se a psicanálise nasce a partir do abandono da ideia de um trauma na realidade, é porque Freud compreende a realidade como “psíquica” e tecida pela ficção da fantasia fundamental. Contudo, não há dúvidas que o real da morte traumatiza ao desvelar a sua impotência simbólica. A contingência dos encontros traumáticos nem sempre está ligada à resposta particular de cada um e, hoje, temos como exemplo o COVID, que caiu em cima dos sujeitos anunciando o real. Não há dúvidas de que esse evento é traumático e independe da fantasia individual, mas ao apostar no desejo e no inconsciente, a psicanálise aposta na interpretação do trauma, para cada falasser, a partir do simbólico que estrutura as experiências humanas. Até que ponto o sujeito é vítima do que lhe acomete? Existe uma relação entre os golpes do real que caem sobre o sujeito e o trauma ligado ao sintoma e à fantasia? Até onde o trauma conta com a participação subjetiva do sujeito? O estudo do caso clínico abordado no texto pode nos ajudar a pensar a complexidade da noção de “trauma” na psicanálise e a escuta que diferencia o lugar do analista.
Notas sobre o desejo do psicanalista

Published: December 2023

O presente artigo aborda o desejo do psicanalista no ensino de Lacan e a posição do filósofo Sócrates no diálogo de Platão, O Banquete, trazendo, em paralelo, para discussão, algumas questões sobre um dos conceitos fundamentais da psicanálise, a transferência. O recorte proposto situa-se entre os seminários 6 e 10 de Lacan, com ênfase no livro 8. Articulados a esses três pontos, a saber: o desejo do psicanalista, a posição de Sócrates diante da declaração de amor de Alcebíades e a transferência, também concedemos algum espaço de debate para questões relacionadas a ética da psicanálise e o luto do analista.
Do fenômeno psicossomático à substância gozante
Authors: Figueiredo Ingrid
Published: December 2023

Interrogações sobre o corpo promoveram uma abertura do campo para novas questões sobre a relação entre o corpo e a escrita, a partir da hipótese de que o fenômeno psicossomático comparece como uma letra no corpo, sem a intermediação do simbólico, como algo que comparece no real com o estatuto de escrita. Trata-se de uma falha epistemo-somática, como uma escrita que não se dá a ler situada no litoral entre saber e gozo. A partir destas premissas, seria possível interrogar, a partir do método psicanalítico, se há uma direção de tratamento a partir da operação pela via da lógica paracompleta da interpretação poética e da lógica paraconsistente da formação do sintoma? Entendo que esta questão tem me interrogado a partir da escuta clínica e de elaborações sobre os efeitos da interpretação poética sobre o gozo do corpo ou sobre a substância gozante em casos de pacientes acometidos por fenômenos psicossomáticos.
racismo no fantasme
Authors: Ferreira De Alencar Yan
Published: December 2023

O texto é fruto de um cartel dissolvido em 2022 cujo tema foi Racismo, Sujeito e Psicanálise, onde se procurava dar resposta ao questionamento de como o discurso analítico pode tratar do racismo sendo essa uma problemática social. O trabalho tenta responder essa questão aliando o conceito de fantasia (fantasme), como conceito operador de gozo na dinâmica do sujeito, encontrando-se com a inscrição da violência racial no psiquismo e corpo de um sujeito. Tentando concluir que o lugar do analista é o mesmo do discurso analista onde encontra cada sujeito em sua singularidade evitando o resumo ao saber único e globalizante dos estudos sobre raça. Revelando, portanto, o lugar do rigor do tratamento analítico.

Purpose: The aim of the present study is to investigate how age discrimination affects successful aging, but also whether internalizing negative attitudes towards old age explains the relationship between the two variables. Materials and Methods: The study involved 391 people aged between 35 and 90, 315 women and 76 men. The tools used were The Fraboni Scale of Ageism, Attitudes to Aging Questionnaire, and Successful Aging Inventory. Outcomes: According to the results, there was no statistically significant correlation between perceptions of age discrimination and successful aging. Also, there was a statistically significant negative correlation between negative attitudes towards aging and successful aging. Finally, there was a statistically significant positive correlation between the perception of age discrimination and negative attitudes towards aging. Conclusions: The approach in the present study allows for a deeper understanding of subjective perceptions of one’s own aging. The study investigated two variables that may have relevance in understanding subjective successful aging - perceived age discrimination and negative attitudes toward aging. The results allow us to better understand the antecedents of successful aging and their importance.
RETUNING THE UNIVERSE: EXAMINING THE COSMIC SIGNIFICANCE OF SOUND FREQUENCIES, MUSIC AND HUMAN PERCEPTION
Authors: DUMAN Nesrin
Published: December 2023

The article discusses the relationship between sound frequencies, music, and human perception, focusing on the debate surrounding the tuning standard used in music. The paper begins by questioning the metaphysical and religious implications of sound as a creative force. It then delves into the physics of music and human hearing and continues emphasizing the role of frequencies in shaping tonality and timbre. The significance and effects of different tuning standards, particularly comparing 432Hz tuning to the more commonly used 440Hz standard, have also been reviewed. Additionally, the historical context and potential motives behind the adoption of the 440Hz tuning standard, suggesting military and commercial interests, have been investigated. By examining these aspects, the article aims to deepen our understanding of the effects of different musical tunings on human well-being and perception, calling for further research. Ultimately, the article serves as a call to action for further research in the field.
Epistolary of P. Kulish on the Websites of the Vernadsky National Library of Ukraine
Authors: Novalska Tetiana , Timofieieva Kateryna
Published: December 2023

The purpose of the article is to study and characterise the available sources and projects of digitisation and virtualisation of P. Kulish’s epistolary heritage on the websites of the Vernadsky National Library of Ukraine (hereinafter – VNLU) to preserve the historical and cultural heritage of Ukraine.
Research methods. The work uses a set of scientific methods based on an interdisciplinary approach, which includes analytical (for analysing electronic resources and the Internet), historical (for tracing the process of digitising P. Kulish’s manuscript heritage), information and library science aspects.
Scientific novelty. Kulish studies (a scientific discipline that studies the life and work of P. Kulish) are widely represented and introduced into scientific and information circulation thanks to the electronic resources of the VNLU. The electronic resources are filled with the digitized documentary heritage of P. Kulish: a small part of his epistolary works, fiction and scientific works, photographic documents, and VNLU reference books, which contain information about the funds where the writer’s paper documents are stored. The created digital objects of P. Kulish’s epistolary works are an integral part of the digital cultural heritage.
Conclusions. P. Kulish’s epistolary heritage is not digitised to the full extent to which it is presented in paper form and requires an urgent digitisation process. Ukrainian society is deprived of the opportunity to freely use the national heritage in the form of P. Kulish’s epistolary heritage, which is a historical source and generally identifies Ukrainians as an original nation with an authentic cultural heritage. Today, the formation of an informative electronic environment aimed at highlighting national achievements is the main strategic task for the development of not only the leading library institutions of Ukraine but also public policy in general.

The purpose — to study the markers of visceral obesity (VO) in patients with obesity in combination with coronary artery disease and to evaluate their relationship with eating disorders (ED). Material and methods. The study included 88 patients with coronary artery disease with or without obesity (overweight or normal body weight). We analyzed anthropometric data (height, weight, waist circumference, hip circumference) and lipid spectrum indicators. VO markers were calculated. Eating disorders in the study groups were studied. Results. In patients with coronary artery disease and obesity, the restrictive type of ED prevailed. In this group, higher values of VO markers were also observed. The relationship between the VO index and the ED types was revealed. Conclusions. Diagnosis of VO can be recommended for primary and secondary prevention of cardiovascular diseases and death.

The purpose — to analyze the comparability of liver ultrasound results and calculated indices of liver steatosis in asymptomatic individuals with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in a young age. Material and methods. We examined 164 patients, including 80 men and 84 women aged Me = 35 [31–39] years old at Consultation and Diagnostic Center of Aviastroytelniy district of Kazan. The observational clinical case-control study was based on the criterion of constitutional obesity. The patients underwent anthropometry, measurement of blood pressure and blood insulin; indicators of lipid and carbohydrate metabolism were studied. An ultrasound examination of liver was performed to detect NAFLD. We calculated NAFLD-LFS, HIS, and TyG indices of liver steatosis. The data were processed with IBM SPSS Statistics 26. Results. According to ultrasound data, NAFLD was found in 8.5% of the examined patients (n = 14). The frequency of increased values of all the studied indices, as well as the average values per se, were significantly higher in the group of people with liver steatosis according to ultrasound data compared with the group of people without steatosis (p = 0.000). When analyzing the ROC curves, statically significant results were obtained for all steatosis indices. The most sensitive and specific index was the HSI index. Conclusion. The highest sensitivity and specificity when compared with ultrasound examination were established for the HSI hepatic steatosis index. The threshold value of the TyG index for liver steatosis was 4.57, which is lower than is accepted for the general population.

Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is a poorly studied aortic valve defect, occurring in the population with a frequency of 0.5–1 to 2–3%. Despite the absence of significant clinical manifestations in childhood, BAV can cause the development of serious complications in adult patients. Modern genetic studies confirm the hereditary nature of the disease, but are not used in routine diagnostic practice. The widespread use of echocardiography as a screening allows identifying the defect at the preclinical stage, but low awareness of doctors about the significant consequences of this defect often leads to the early development of complications, especially if the patient experiences regular intense physical activity with irregular follow-up of the valve condition. The lack of patient management algorithms stipulated by Russian regulatory documents makes it difficult to provide high-quality and timely care and increases the risk of complications. We analyzed Russian and foreign sources describing the features of embryogenesis and morphology of the bicuspid aortic valve, peculiarities of clinical manifestations of the malformation, modern approaches to diagnosis, including the possibility of genetic studies, as well as therapeutic and surgical methods of treatment of the malformation and its complications. The review also presents a new classification of congenital bicuspid aortic valve and related aortopathies.
