The Urban Picturesque: Legitimizing the New York Skyscraper through Art
Authors: Taylor Jeff
Published: April 2021

In the early twentieth century, debate concerning the social impact of skyscrapers in the modernizing city was widespread, and usually quite acrimonious. This paper will address how artists of this time-period, in their artistic representations of cities and skyscrapers created an urban metaphor of the picturesque as a means to influence a public, increasingly not in favour of the skyscraper. In effect, skyscrapers slowly crept into artistic representations, humbly appearing in late-nineteenth century architectural magazine illustrations or as accents in the skyline of American impressionist paintings. The prolific growth of the twentieth century brought the public debate over skyscrapers into the spotlight and artists took this as an opportunity to promote their views. Some artists, such as the Pictorialists took the opportunity to aestheticize their pictures of the buildings in a fashion that might convey a sense of sublime in the city. Much of the scholarship on the depiction of the skyscraper in the arts has been limited to the Pictorialist photographer’s advancement of modern art in New York City; however, these studies neglect the social significance of the Pictorialist’s use of nature metaphors to create an urban sublime reminiscent of the romantic, picturesque landscapes of the previous century. My paper examines the effect of this aestheticization and the significant promotion and support of the skyscraper from the visual arts, specifically from the photographs of Alfred Stieglitz and his circle. I will investigate the development of this aesthetic and how familiarity with this style strengthened support for the skyscraper in the metropolis of New York City. I will further explore these ideas by examining the treatment paintings and photography, in the construction of a familiar sense of awe and, in other words, conjuring the picturesque as a device.
TITAN to Google Earth: Workflow for Data Processing for Mobile Terrestrial LIDAR
Authors: Martin Michael
Published: April 2021

Terrestrial LIDAR scanners are pushing the boundaries of accurate urban modelling. Automation and the usability of tools used in feature abstraction and, to a lesser degree, presentation have become the chief concerns with this new technology. To broaden the use and impact of LIDAR in the geomatics, LiDAR datasets must be converted to feature-based representations without loss of precision. One approach, taken here, is to simultaneously examine the overall path that data takes through an organization and the operatordriven tasks carried out on the data as it is transformed from a raw point cloud to final product. We present a review of the current practices in LiDAR data processing and a foundation for future efforts to optimize. We examine alternative LIDAR processing workflows with two key questions in mind: computational efficiency - whether the process can be done using the tools at all - and tool complexity - what operator skill level is needed at each step. Using these workflows the usability of the specific software tools and the required knowledge to effectively carry out the procedures using the tools are examined. Preliminary results have yielded workflows that successfully translate LIDAR to 3D object models, highly decimated point representations of street data represented in Google Earth, and large volume point data flythroughs in ESRI ArcScene. We are documenting the pragmatic limits on each of these workflows and tools for endusers. Terrestrial LIDAR brings with it new innovations for spatial visualizations, but also questions of viability. The technology has proved valuable for specialized applications for experts, but can it be useful as a tool for proliferating 3d spatial information by and to non-experts. This study illustrates the issues associated with preparing 3d LIDAR data for presentation in mainstream visualization environments.
Timbit, Javex and Zed: Do Canadians realize that they have a unique vocabulary?
Authors: McCulloch Gretchen , Wright Kirsten
Published: April 2021

Many Canadians feel that there is some difference between Canadian and American speech beyond simply the spelling of "colour," and linguistic research has confirmed that many vocabulary items, like poutine, eavestrough, and skate-a-thon, are found only in Canada. Although this topic has been popularized somewhat by books like Katherine Barber's Only in Canada, You Say, the extent to which Canadians are aware of the distinctness of their everyday vocabulary is still uncertain. This survey of 54 Queen's students, all native English-speaking Canadians age 24 and under, shows that real and false Canadianisms can be placed in categories based on meaning association and frequency of usage that correlate to the likelihood that respondents will judge them as "uniquely Canadian." Comparing identification and usage also reveals some intriguing characteristics of this demographic, including the decline of "chesterfield," contact with "francophones," and gender differences in food-related Canadianisms. This presentation will examine both specific examples and general trends found in the survey, as well as suggesting potential areas for further related study.
Vomito, Ergo Deconstruo (I Vomit, Therefore I Deconstruct): A Practical Analysis of Deconstruction
Authors: Kim J. Rosel
Published: April 2021

Vomit: a digestive malfunction, or a deconstructive metaphor? Through close-reading of a meal gone awry, I set out to prove that Derrida and vomit are indeed compatible, and may even share the same objectives of demonstrating the shortcomings of Western rationalism that expects and anticipates only perfection. The first stage of getting ready involves the méconnaisance (misrecognition) of Lacan's mirror stage: the immaculate self catches a glance of the neat and perfect self in the mirror, and mistakes the snapshot of the flawless Ideal-I as his/her real self. This Ideal-I quickly destabilizes, however, when he/she crumbles into the ground in the middle of the meal, as the meal proceeds not to pleasantries, but projectile. The "impeccable" self disappears as it hurls on the floor, creating a problem that nobody wants to see. This is what Julia Kristeva labels a "narcissistic crisis," where boundaries and perception of the self are obscured by the body's production of the abject matters, deconstructing the seemingly neat and definite boundaries of self and other. The essay concludes by deconstructing the meal/vomit binary, by showing the symbiotic relationship between the two that cannot exist without the other by applying the Derridian of différance and freeplay.
Beyond the Bridge
Authors: Turner Makeda , McCallum Carmen , Benson Janella
Published: April 2021

This qualitative study examines the experiences of seven students who were selected to attend a summer bridge program (SBP) located in the U.S. Midwest. Utilizing semi-structured interviews and organizational socialization theory, the study illuminates students’ preconceived notions about what it means to be in an SBP, experiences while in the program, and how those experiences help facilitate a successful transition into the first year of college and beyond. Findings revealed that participating in the SBP positively influenced students’ college experiences and ultimately their persistence to graduation. Recommendations drawn from the study are offered to higher education staff and administrators interested in starting or improving summer bridge or similar programs.
Main empirical regularities of the phosphorus geochemistry in the hypergenesis
Authors: Yudovich Ya. E. , Ketris M. P. , Rybina N. V.
Published: April 2021

Research subject. The study investigates the distribution of phosphorus (as percentages of P2O5 and P) and 4 phosphorus modules introduced by the authors - phosphorus-titanium FTM (P2O5/TiO2), phosphorus-calcium FCM (P2O5/CaO), phos-phorus-iron FIM (P2O5/Fe2O3) and phosphorus-general-iron FGiM (P2O5/(Fe2O3 + FeO)) - in the main types of sedimentary rocks, such as psammites, pelites, carbonates, silicites, in volcanic-sedimentary rocks (tuffoids), as well as in soils, sediments and such specific rocks as nodules and weathering crusts. Methods. On the basis of a large data bank (several tens of thousands of silicate analyses), new clarks of phosphorus were calculated. Clark estimates were based on average median contents for all the above-mentioned rock groups. For the first time, lithochemistry methods were successfully applied to characterize the composition of phosphorites. Correlation analysis was used to identify forms of phosphorus in rocks. Only the most reliable linear correlation coefficients of phosphorus and phosphorus modules with rock-forming components were considered significant - with a significance level no greater than 0.01 and 0.05.

Results and conclusions. In some cases, new estimates of clarks differed markedly from the estimates of our predecessors. For a number of objects, clarks were determined for the first time. Interpretation of the revealed relationships allowed us to identify the following main correlations and corresponding forms of phosphorus in sedimentary rocks and their analogues (soils and sediments): positive correlation with CaO - phosphorus in the form of accessory apatite or francolite dominated; positive correlation with Fe2O3 - phosphorus sorbed on iron hydroxides dominates; positive correlation with MgO - phosphorus dominated in the composition of smectite or chlorite, initially sorbed on the clay substance of precipitation; positive correlation with TiO2 - phosphate sorbed on leucoxene, dominates. Thus, in addition to the previously known calcium and iron hydroxide, a titanium geochemical barrier for phosphorus was first identified.
The Shirokoe Place as a reference section of the upper Visean substage in the Upper Pechora basin (Unya river, Northern Urals)
Authors: Shadrin A. N. , Ivanova R. M.
Published: April 2021

Research subject. Carbonate rocks in the “Shirokoe Place” section (Unya River, Northern Urals). Material and methods. The work was based on a study of the composition and structural peculiarities of rocks and species diversities of forami- nifera and calcareous algae in the most important section of Upper Visean sediments in the lower reaches of the Unya river.

Results. The rocks in the section are represented by bioclastic limestones, dolomites and various transition differences. The section features a wide presence of green Koninckopora, red Epistacheoides and Ungdarella algae. Less common are Palaeoberesella, Anthracoporella, Kamaena and Stacheoides. Fasciella is extremely rare, and Calcifolium is virtually absent. Foraminifera complexes are representative, but there are no zonal species Eostaffella tenebrosa (Venevsky horizon), genera Valvulinella (Tula horizon), Bradyina and Howchinia (Mikhailovsky and Venevsky horizons). Endothyranopsis, Janischewskina and Cribrospira are rare.

Conclusions. The study of the species diversity of foraminifera and calcareous algae allowed us to clarify the stratigraphic division of the upper Visean sediments in the “Shirokoe Place” section. The Tula, Aleksinsky, Mikhailovsky and Venevsky horizons of the Upper Visean were reliably identified. The studied section can be used as a reference when creating stratigraphic schemes of Later Visean deposits for the Western subzone of the Upper Pechora transverse sinking of the Western folded zone of the Urals and adjacent areas of the PreUrals regional trough.

Constantly changing environment and constantly growing needs and requirements of patients, make nursing define its competences, look for place in the health care system, plan tasks and create nursing development strategies. It tries to meet the requirements, becoming at the same time a key link in the health care system and a fully autonomous profession but with an unchangeable mission which is to save human life and care for the patient. Permanent changes in health care, in society as well as in the structures in medical professions cause that nursing constantly strives for its development and tries to engage substantive dialogue with those responsible for health policy, in order to outline the framework of the profession in the actual reality and its future. A review of selected national strategies for nursing development, the circumstances in which they developed and key assumptions allow to conclude about their positive impact on public health in a given country and on the quality of patient care. What connects individual strategies is the priority treatment of multi-sectoral cooperation in health care, aspects related to the promotion of the profession, education of nurses and the definition of new roles and new competences in the context of the requirements and needs of a given country. An example may be prescribing, providing nursing advice or introducing the role of an advanced practice nurse. A great achievement for nursing in Poland is the initiative of creation “Strategy of Development for nursing”. It is a planning document that defines the directions of activities ensuring high quality, safety and access to nursing care of patients.

Congenital malformations of female genital organs arise as a result of disorders of development of the Müller ducts or urogenital sinus. Most often these are uterine defects, rarely vagina or complex defects affecting the uterus and vagina. Examples of such disadvantages have been outlined. In the case of patients with congenital malformations of genital organs, interdisciplinary medical and psychological care should be sought, and the help of a specialist in family doctor is also important. Despite the fact that in the practice of a family doctor the problem of congenital malformations is relatively rare, due to the importance of the problem, it is important in family medicine to know about patients with abnormalities in the structure and function of the genital organs arising during intrauterine life due to differentiation disorders sexual. These patients require a referral to gynecological specialists. It is important to properly diagnose the type of defect, possibly eliminate unpleasant ailments, and thus restore the proper functioning of the genital organs also in the context of functioning in the sexual sphere. Therefore, in the case of patients with congenital malformations of the genital organs, interdisciplinary medical and psychological care is important, especially in patients with MRKH syndrome.
Complete permanent tooth avulsion – current therapy concept and prognosis
Authors: Malinowska Aleksandra
Published: April 2021

Complete permanent tooth avulsion is trauma relating both to teeth not fully developed and the mature ones. The aetiology may vary, but usually it does not determine the choice of treatment method. The current concept of avulsed permanent teeth is based entirely on the decision on the expediency of tooth replantation and its possibly swift performance, as long as there are indications for it. This is aimed at maintaining the tooth in the oral cavity for as long as possible, or as long as it takes to start the further stages of the treatment. It is important to determine the exact time of injury and to establish whether any first-aid operations in the mouth were performed and what they were. The course of action in the dental office depends on the time the tooth spent outside the socket, its maturity and the environment in which the tooth was stored. The role of the dental practitioner, in addition to the professional treatment of the injuries which have already occurred, consists in the prevention, education and the promotion of appropriate attitudes in the patients. In complete avulsion, the prognosis is strictly dependent on these factors and the occurrence of complications is often associated with late treatment initiation or lack of knowledge among the persons present at the injury with respect to the way in which an avulsed tooth should be handled. In order to promote the appropriate behaviour in the society, the International Association of Dental Traumatology (IADT) provides recommendations for patients concerning trauma to the teeth via its website, posters and a mobile application.

Authors: Kozubska Agnieszka , Szczepańska Joanna
Published: April 2021

Introduction. The treatment of carious denudation of pulp and irreversible partial pulp inflammation is pulpotomy. In this method formocresol was used as the “gold standard”. Aim. Assessment of the effectiveness of the use of formocresol in pulpotomy in deciduous teeth. Material and methods. Formocresol amputation performed in 2010-2012 in children born in 2006-2007 were analysed. The consent of the Bioethical Committee at the Medical University of Łódź as well as written consent from all the subject/parents of all the subjects/legal guardians of all the subjects were obtained. Results. In this research, the amputation in 102 deciduous teeth, including 49 first and second upper molars, and 53 lower molars, performed on 64 children were analysed. In 102 amputation cases 78 were caused by carious denudation of pulp and 24 by irreversible partial pulp inflammation without visible denudation of pulp. 37 patients underwent pulpotomy in 1 tooth, 19 patients needed it in 2 teeth, 6 patients in 3 teeth, 1 patient in 4 teeth, and 1 patient in 5 molars. The pulpotomy was repeated because of the glass-ionomer lost in 19 cases. In total 63 teeth were extracted, including 25 at the right time and 38 too early. During the last oral examination held 2016/2017, 31 out of 102 teeth were still on place. The lack of 8 teeth without the presence of permanent successors was reported. The analysis of 102 cases showed the average of 2.5 years period of the teeth maintenance following the formocresol pulpotomy. Conclusions. Retrospective analysis of the use of formocresol in pulpotomy in deciduous teeth proved clinical success of this material, which provided the maintenance of the teeth with the pulpitis for 2 to 3 years after the amputation.

Introduction. Tooth injuries constitute a serious clinical problem in contemporary paediatric dentistry. Immediately delivered and correct first aid is particularly important in the case of dental trauma. Aim. The aim of the study was to assess the general knowledge of teachers and medical professionals on providing first aid to children in the case of dental trauma. Taking part in a first aid training course was also analysed. Material and methods. An anonymous, voluntary questionnaire was administered to 727 people. It was conducted in January and February 2017 in three Polish provinces. The respondents were divided into groups depending on their age, sex, educational level, number of children and profession related to medicine or school education. Behavioural patterns were analysed in the event of a complete tooth dislocation or crown fracture. Results. According to the study, 577 respondents (79.4%) have participated in a first aid training course at least once. Every third person: 223 (32%) has been a witness of a tooth injury. The most frequent type of encountered trauma was soft tissue injury and tooth crown fracture: 114 (35%) and 96 (29%) cases, respectively. The professionals who tried to provide first aid in dental trauma at a similar percentage were teachers: 56% of cases and people associated with medicine: 53%; the remaining professionals did so in 36% of cases. Conclusions. The issue of first aid in dental trauma is rarely raised during first aid training courses. Despite this, every second person participating in the study has tried to provide first aid. However, their actions were incorrect in most cases.

Current epidemiological and molecular research has confirmed that HPV (human papillomavirus) infection is strongly associated with malignant tumors of the mouth and throat. HPV infection is currently considered to be one of the main causes of the growing incidence of squamous cell carcinoma in the oropharynx and oral cavity, in particular among populations of developed countries. HPV-positive cancers are characterized by a different from non-viral clinical image, epidemiology, risk factors and treatment protocols. Therefore, it deserves special attention and separate treatment. In recent years, there has been a significant increase in the incidence of HPV-positive carcinomas in the world, especially in the group of patients under 50 years of age. All of these factors lead to the conclusion, that redefinition of risk groups for cancer of this area and updating of protocols and prophylaxis is needed. Younger patients should be provided with oral cancer prevention programs, it is also advisable to promote vaccinations. The article describes current epidemiological status and the state of knowledge about HPV positive cancers of mouth and throat region.

Published: April 2021

Objectives:

Arthritis of the foot and ankle joints provoke pain and restricts function. The arthroscopic assisted arthrodesis (AAA) is a minimally invasive procedure for end stage arthritis to eliminate pain and achieve painless mobilization, with numerous benefits like faster time to union, less blood loss, less morbidity, less infection rate, and less soft tissue complications compared with open surgery. The objective of this paper is to retrospectively evaluate our case series (136 patients) of arthroscopic assisted foot and ankle fusion that includes the subtalar, tibiocalcaneal, tibiotalar and metatarsophalangeal joint in our last 25 years of practice. Level of Evidence: Level IV, retrospective case series.

Materials and Methods:

Patients who underwent arthroscopic assisted arthrodesis in the foot and ankle were identified by review of a registry. Minimum follow-up was 24 months. Patient demographics characteristics, time to radiographic union, and preoperative and postoperative American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society score (AOFAS) were obtained.

Results:

Subtalar fusion: 43 patients. Radiographic union was seen in 40 patients at a mean time of 10 weeks (8-14) and non union was seen in three patients, of which 1 required open revision surgery. AOFAS score improved from 43 preoperatively (27-57) to 83 (67-93) postoperatively. Tibiotalar fusion: 55 patients. Radiographic union in a mean time of 12 weeks (7-15) in all 55 cases. AOFAS score improved from 50.5 preoperatively (25-60) to 82 (62-94) postoperatively. Tibiotalocalcaneal fusion: 3 patients. 2 patients with radiographic union at 14 and 16 weeks and 1 showed a fibrotic union of the subtalar joint without pain. AOFAS score improved from 43 preoperatively (34-58) to 78 (67-81) postoperatively. Metatarsophalangeal fusion: 35 patients. Radiographic union in 33 patients at a mean time of 8 weeks (6-11). Two patients presented asymptomatic non union. AOFAS score improved from 38 preoperatively (30-60) to 86 (75-93) postoperatively.

Conclusion:

Arthroscopic assisted arthrodesis in the foot and ankle is an excellent procedure for end stage degenerated joint.

Formulation of wedelolactone enriched extract with enhanced potential to inhibit cytokines in experimental arthritis
Authors: Atre B N  , Arulmozhi S  , Sathiyanarayanan L  , Dhapte-Pawar V V  , Mahadik K R
Published: April 2021

Eclipta alba Linn. (Asteraceae) is traditionally claimed and reported to possess antarthritic and anti-inflammatory activity. Wedelolactone, an active constituent of Eclipta alba Linn responsible for its therapeutic effectiveness, is poorly water soluble and less bioavailable. Hence in the present study, we proposed a SNEDDS formulation of wedelolactone rich extracts of Eclipta alba Linn. (EAF) and evaluated its effect in Freund's complete adjuvant (FCA) induced arthritis in rats.EAF reduced increase in paw volume and hyperalgesia in 50, 100 and 200 mg/kg doses significantly. It restored all cytokines (Tumor Necrosis Factor-α, Interleukin-1β and Interleukin-6); hematological and biochemical parameters altered due to FCA induction. The histopathology further supported the potential of EAF in arresting the progress of the disease. It protected cartilage destruction and exudation of inflammatory cells dose dependently. In conclusion, the EAF exhibited potent antarthritic potential due to the increased bioavailability of wedelolactone and other constituents. The mechanism of action is mainly mediated through inhibition of cytokines, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant potential of wedelolactone.

Гіпотезою слугувало припущення, що під час навчання можуть відбуватися зміни стану психічного здоров’я студентів-психологів внаслідок дії дезадаптуючих факторів нервово-психічного напруження. Також враховувалося, що в умовах теоретичного та практичного засвоєння основ спеціальності практичного психолога, які сприяють підвищенню стресостійкості, життєстійкості, формуванню адекватної «Я-концепції» зростатиме соціально-психологічна адаптація студентів. Були застосовані теоретичний, емпіричний і математико-статистичний методи. Теоретичний метод включав аналіз, класифікацію та систематизацію наукових матеріалів за проблемою. Емпіричний метод складався зі спостереження, контент-аналізу матеріалів навчальної діяльності та соціальної активності. У своєму складі він мав такі психодіагностичні методики: опитувальник соціально-психологічної адаптації К. Роджерса, Р. Даймонд; шкала особистісної та реактивної тривожності Ч.Д. Спілбергера, Ю.Л. Ханіна; опитувальник самооцінки психічних станів Айзенка; методика домінуючого психічного стану Л.В. Кулікова; клінічний опитувальник для виявлення і оцінки невротичних станів К.К. Яхина, Д.М. Менделевича; методика самопочуття, активності, настрою (САН); методика «Прогноз» (НПУ). Встановлено, що стан здоров’я здобувачів вищої освіти старших курсів порівняно з молодшими дещо погіршився. Виявлено зниження соціальної активності, але з підвищенням результативності навчання за академічними показниками. Усі студенти мають високий і середній рівні соціально-психологічної адаптації, але показники тривожності дещо вищі в групі старших. Вони більш ригідні, в них нижчі показники настрою, вони мають більше виявів тривоги, невротичної депресії, астенії, абсесивно-фобічних порушень. Молодші відрізняються добрим настроєм, але не досить добре регулюють свої емоційні вияви. Встановлені зміни стану здоров’я студентів під час навчання потребують проведення моніторингу їх психологічного стану із формуванням групи тих, хто потребує психологічної допомоги, для проведення психокорекційних заходів. Також рекомендується проведення супервізії для формування у студентів професійної майстерності, особистісного зростання з підвищенням життєстійкості, стресостійкості, оптимістичного погляду на майбутнє.
КОПІНГ-ЗАХИСНІ МЕХАНІЗМИ САМОРЕГУЛЯЦІЇ ПСИХОЛОГІВ У СТРЕСОВИХ СИТУАЦІЯХ
Authors: Степаненко Л. В.
Published: April 2021

У статті представлено проблему функціонування копінг-захисних механізмів особистості в стресових ситуаціях. Окреслено погляди вчених щодо взаємозв’язку копінг-стратегій поведінки особистості й механізмів психологічного захисту в процесі саморегуляції. Наведено результати експериментального дослідження особливостей використання психологами копінг-стратегій, механізмів психологічного захисту, регуляторних процесів і регуляторно-особистісних властивостей у стресових ситуаціях. Проаналізовано середні показники, рівні прояву окреслених феноменів. Визначено репертуар використання психологами копінг-стратегій у стресових ситуаціях: планування розв’язання проблеми, позитивна переоцінка, конфронтація, дистанціювання, самоконтроль, пошук соціальної підтримки, втеча-уникнення. Пріоритетами в безсвідомій захисній активності виступають механізми раціоналізації, заперечення, проєкції, компенсації. Встановлено наявність кореляційних зв’язків між показниками копінг-стратегій і механізмами психологічного захисту психологів. Доведено, що психологи емоційно включені в стресову ситуацію, але користуються свідомими стратегіями для утримання вияву негативних емоцій, прагнуть зберегти контроль над ситуацією, використовуючи різні інформаційні ресурси. Психологи в стресових ситуаціях прагнуть спрямовувати свої дії на конструктивне розв’язання проблеми з метою підтримки себе й інших. Акцентовано на наявності взаємозв’язку між копінг-захисними механізмами й процесами саморегуляції психологів. Встановлено наявність кореляційних взаємозв’язків між показниками копінг-захисних механізмів і такими показниками саморегуляції особистості психолога, як моделювання, планування, оцінювання результатів, самостійність, загальний рівень саморегуляції. Доведено, що стресова ситуація активує широкий спектр регуляторних процесів і регуляторних властивостей особистості. Психологи вміють покладатися на свої здібності, продумувати способи досягнення мети й шукати можливості для розв’язання труднощів.
ГЕНДЕРНО-РОЛЬОВИЙ КОНФЛІКТ У ЖІНОК: РОЛЬОВА КОМПЕТЕНТНІСТЬ, БАЛАНС ТА РОЗПОДІЛ РОЛЕЙ
Authors: Касьян А. І.
Published: April 2021

Специфіка рольової компетентності, структури та змісту ролей сучасної жінки, тих гендерно-рольових конфліктів, з якими стикаються жінки в актуальній повсякденній реальності, пов’язаною із розширенням рольового репертуару особистості, трансформацією ролей, – є важливими для вивчення – це стосується як рольового розподілу у сім’ї, так і можливості розподілити свій час між роботою та іншими сферами життя для жінок, які працюють і при цьому мають родину і дітей. У статті представлені результати емпіричного дослідження (n=204) рольової компетентності жінок, її взаємозв’язку із розподілом ролей у сім’ї та балансом «робота – життя». Метою статті є аналіз та обґрунтування результатів емпіричного дослідження взаємозв’язку рольової компетентності жінок із балансом «робота – життя» та ідеальними (бажаними) уявленнями про розподіл ролей у сім’ї. Гіпотеза емпіричної частини дослідження полягала у припущенні про те, що жінки відчувають гендерно-рольовий конфлікт, пов’язаний із стереотипним розподілом ролей, розбалансованістю «робота – життя» та низьким рівнем рольової компетентності. Дослідження показало, що в рольовому репертуарі рольова гнучкість більше пов’язана із загальним показником рольової компетентності, ніж рольова глибина. Розподіл ролей у сім’ї, на думку жінок, повинен в окремих сферах бути спільним для дружини і чоловіка (організація розваг, роль господаря / господині, сексуального партнера, організацію сімейної субкультури); належати чоловікові (матеріальне забезпечення сім’ї) або дружині (виховання дітей, емоційний клімат), що відповідає стереотипному традиційному розподілу ролей. Баланс між роботою та іншими сферами життя, можливість гармонійно розподіляти свій час у цілому знаходиться на рівні вище середнього, особливо у соціальних контактах. Однак має високий рівень балансу навантаження, який відповідає за можливість розподіляти час між різними сферами життя. Рольова компетентність пов’язана в окремих моментах як із розподілом ролей у сім’ї, так і з балансом «робота – життя», що частково підтверджує висунуту нами гіпотезу. Також у показниках рольової компетентності, розподілу ролей у сім’ї, балансі «робота – життя» були знайдені окремі статистичні відмінності за віком, рівнем освіти, сімейним статусом та кількістю дітей або їх наявністю.
Hannah Arendt, a lei clássica e a questão da normatividade
Authors: Prado Hugo Araújo
Published: April 2021

Este artigo visa compreender a relação entre a lei e a cidade a partir do pensamento de Hannah Arendt. Embora as leituras de Arendt sobre a lei pareçam ser não sistemáticas, defendo a posição segundo a qual Arendt trabalha com essas questões no terreno de sua compreensão política dos conceitos de nómos e lex. Quando Arendt lida com os conceitos clássicos de lei, ela apresenta elementos valiosos para entender tanto a dimensão da inovação quanto da conservação na política.

Authors: Júnior Edivaldo Borges dos Santos
Published: April 2021

Pretendemos neste artigo esclarecer a que se refere o termo “pós-humano”, entretanto, não intencionamos fazer uma análise linguística deste, senão uma análise filosófica a fim de saber o que é o pós-humano. O termo a que nos referimos é utilizado por diferentes correntes de pensamento, a saber, pós-humanismo e transumanismo, então iremos prestar algum esclarecimento sobre ambas as correntes além nos ater a suas definições de pós-humano, sempre com o intuito de saber o que ele é. Por fim, falar em pós-humanos é referir-se a diferentes indivíduos, um deles é o ciborgue, que é e não é um pós-humano, para tanto prestaremos algum esclarecimento sobre isto.

Authors: Gonçalves Isabel Cristina Rocha Hipólito , Torres Eryck Kawã Pereira
Published: April 2021

Neste trabalho nos ocupamos centralmente em compreender a proposta ética de Hans Jonas e como ele apresenta o Princípio Responsabilidade como uma categoria ética a ser norteadora das ações humanas. Apresentamos um breve histórico do desenvolvimento da Filosofia da Tecnologia enquanto uma disciplina filosófica específica e, então, discutimos as principais considerações de Jonas sobre a necessidade de uma ética inteiramente nova que tome a técnica como objeto e a proposta que este apresente de uma ética do futuro pautada na responsabilidade enquanto princípio.
