Arkilähtöinen kotitalousneuvonta ja -kasvatus nuorten siirtymävaiheiden tukena
Authors: Sekki Sanna , Autio Minna
Published: January 2021

Nuoruuden siirtymävaiheet ovat pitkittyneet ja monimutkaistuneet. Haavoittuvissa elämäntilanteissa eläville nuorille tuen saaminen ja tuen oikea-aikaisuus ovat keskeisiä siirtymävaiheen onnistumisen kannalta. Nuorten tukeminen on kohdistunut pääasiassa kouluttautumisen ja työllistymisen edistämiseen. Sen sijaan arjen taitojen oppimiseen, kuten itsestä huolehtimiseen (mm. vaatehuoltoon, hygieniaan) tai raha-asioiden hoitamiseen, ei ole kiinnitetty yhtä paljon huomiota. Tutkimme kotitalousasiantuntijoiden näkemyksiä nuorille suunnatusta kotitalousneuvonnasta, jonka avulla tuetaan haavoittuvassa asemassa olevien nuorten arjen taitoja ja sitä kautta kiinnittymistä yhteiskuntaan. Tutkimusaineisto koostuu kotitalousasiantuntijoiden teemahaastatteluista (n=11). Analysoimme kotitalousasiantuntijoiden näkemyksiä siitä, miten he rakentavat ymmärrystä arjen haasteista kartoittamalla nuorten elämismaailmaa sekä miten he vastaavat nuorten tuen tarpeeseen. Asiantuntijat painottivat yhdessä tekemistä sekä malli- ja vertaisoppimista. He liittivät ryhmätoimintaan kotitalouden opetukselle tyypillisiä sisältöjä, kuten ruoanvalmistusta, kodin puhtaanapitoa ja kuluttamista. Nuorten kanssa työskentely ohjaa asiantuntijoita toiminaan kasvattajina, joten toimintaa voi kutsua arkilähtöiseksi kotitalouskasvatukseksi. Tutkimus rakentaa ymmärrystä siitä, miten arkilähtöinen kotitalouskasvatus tuo käytännöntaitojen opettamisen osaksi nuorten siirtymävaiheiden tukemista. Nuoret tarvitsevat konkreettista, arkeen suuntautuvaa, sosiaalipedagogisesta näkökulmasta suunniteltua tukea muiden tukipalveluiden rinnalle.
Oman osaamisen tunnistaminen voimaantumisen välineenä
Authors: Airaksinen Anne
Published: January 2021

Tässä katsauksessa tarkastellaan oman osaamisen tunnistamista voimaantumisen näkökulmasta. Tarkastelussa hyödynnetään ViaDia Joensuu ry:n Kotoa kohti työelämää -hankkeessa vuosina 2019–2020 saatuja kokemuksia. Hankkeen toiminta kohdennettiin maahan muuttaneille naisille ja toiminta tavoitti säännöllisesti noin 40 osallistujaa. Hankkeessa toteutettiin avoimia toiminnallisia ryhmä- ja yksilöohjaustuokioita, joiden avulla tuettiin osallistujien suomen kielen taitoa ja tunnistettiin osallistujien vahvuuksia sekä kartoitettiin heidän opiskelumahdollisuuksiaan. Hankkeen tarkoituksena oli tukea osallistujien omien lähtökohtien ja tarpeiden pohjalta osallistujien voimavaroja, potentiaalia, kasvua, osallisuutta ja toimijuutta. Toiminnan taustalla on tunnistettavissa sosiaalipedagoginen viitekehys. Osaamisen tunnistamisen työvälineinä käytettiin Itä-Suomen yliopiston SkiLLfie-itsearviointityökaluja, jotka auttavat tunnistamaan ja sanoittamaan omaa osaamista sekä kertomaan siitä. SkiLLfie-työkalut on kehitetty erityisesti maahan muuttaneiden tarpeisiin. Tässä katsauksessa hyödynnetään hankkeen aikana kertyneiden kokemusten lisäksi hanketyöntekijöiden laatimaa aikuiskasvatustieteen pro gradu -työtä, joka käsittelee Itä-Suomen yliopiston Opinsauna-hankkeen oman osaamisen tunnistamisen työkalujen käytön vaikutuksia. Oman osaamisen tunnistamista lähestytään voimaantumisen ydinkäsitteen kautta.
Analytical Study of Non-Recessed Conical Hole Entry Hybrid/Hydrostatic Journal Bearing with Constant Flow Valve Restrictor
Authors: Khakse Prashant Govindrao , Phalle Vikas M.
Published: January 2021

The present work studies the analysis of a non recessed hole entry conical hybrid/hydrostatic journal bearing adjusted for constant flow valve (CFV) restriction. The paper provides effectiveness between the conical bearings with hole entry operating in hybrid and hydrostatic mode. The Reynolds formulae, for the flow of fluid through the mating surfaces of a conical journal and bearing, are numerically worked out in both the modes considering the finite element analysis (FEA) and the necessary boundary preconditions. Holes in double row are marked on conical bearing circumference to accommodate the CFV restrictors, the angular distance between two holes are 30o apart from the apex. Qualitative features of the conical journal bearing system with hole entry have been elaborated to analyze bearing performance for radial load variation Wr = 0.25-2. Numerical results obtained from the present study indicate that load carrying capacity of conical bearing, operating in hydrostatic mode, is enhanced by the maximum pressure, direct fluid film damping and direct film stiffness coefficients vis-a-vis corresponding hybrid mode.

Published: January 2021

Research on the experiences of siblings of individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is scarce. The current study included 14 siblings of individuals with ASD to study their lived experiences. Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis was used to identify the following six themes: (i) Processing and understanding the condition, (ii) Coping with challenging experiences, (iii) Positive aspects of the sibling relationship, (iv) Current and future roles, (v) Support system, and (vi) Needs and expectations. The findings revealed that siblings had poor awareness of ASD and their experiences were predominantly negative. However, siblings minimized their difficulties and needs, and focused more on the needs of the sibling with ASD. These findings have specific implications for support services for siblings of individuals with ASD.
Revision of Project Citizenship Behavior and Network Capital Based on the Theoretical Constructs of Gender
Authors: Korkmazyurek Yavuz
Published: January 2021

Newly conceptualized Project Citizenship
Behavior (PCB) concept has not been examined through the classical gender
literature and there has been little theoretical work seeking to articulate the
mechanism between PCB and gender concepts. Therefore, the objective of this review
study is to establish the theoretical connection between these two concepts by
using their structures and interactions to provide insights into the impact of
gender on PCBs. With a dialectical approach, the multiplicity of theoretical
connections between PCB and Network Capital (NC) also raises the question of
whether employees exhibit PCB for NC development. This potential relationship
is the main reason to include NC in the study.
Stock Return Prediction using Machine Learning-Based Techniques
Authors: Nguyen Tra Ngoc , Ho-Phuoc Tien , Nguyen Dat Thanh , Mac Minh Nhu
Published: January 2021

The paper attempts to forecast the intraday return of HNX index by using 3 machine learning models: Support Vector Machine, Random Forest, and Extra-Trees Classifier. Kernel principal component analysis is used for feature extraction and dimension reduction. The prediction performance is compared to the classic Logistic Regression’s. Our empirical results show that Extra-Trees Classifier has the highest prediction accuracy of about 55% which outperforms Logistic Regression by about 0.6%. Although both Extra-Trees Classifier and Random Forest (RF) are based on the same approach, the former always obtains better prediction performance. Besides, while not providing the optimal results, Support Vector Machine seems not to depend on the number of features and training length.

Xenophobia-Induced Disaster Displacement in Gauteng, South Africa: A Climate Change Litigation Perspective
Authors: Klaaren Jonathan
Published: January 2021

It has been observed that the scholarship on African responses to climate change law lags behind the reality. This are however some recent efforts to address this gap in the literature. Some recent work has carefully sketched the national development of framework laws in Kenya and Uganda and, taking a pan-African albeit Anglophone perspective, has also addressed the ways in which such national laws might work with and influence each other. This gap is replicated in another corner of climate change scholarship, the literature on climate change litigation. This is unfortunate since action by civil society through national judiciaries often has real impact. For instance, the impact of the provisions in Kenya’s climate change legislation were significantly strengthened by the purposive interpretation given those provisions in Kenya’s most celebrated instance of climate change litigation, the Save Lamu matter. And courts are recognized to play a role in multi-level climate change governance, in part by providing a platform for transnational climate change litigation. Concerned to address these gaps, this article explores the material and conceptual linkages between disaster displacement and climate change with particular attention to litigation and to legal support structures. This article assumes a certain degree of familiarity with climate change litigation and its literature. It proceeds to explore and present a specific cross-cutting perspective, for which there is only modest treatment in the existing literature. This is the linkage of disaster displacement litigation (and legal responses) to climate change litigation. The article outlines and briefly examines a short but intense period of litigation regarding a disaster-induced displacement in South Africa which has not been widely discussed or attended to anywhere in the scholarly literature. Beyond demonstrating the gap between local institutional preparedness and the evident level of risk from disasters at all scales including those associated with climate change, the case study investigated here shows the importance of thinking about the local with the global, particularly with respect to the linkage between displacement and climate change.

Over-expression of cyclin B1 in human endometrial cancer.
Authors: Mamoor Shahan
Published: January 2021

Gynecologic cancers including cancers of the endometrium are a clinical problem (1, 2, 3, 4). We mined published microarray data (5, 6) to discover genes associated with endometrial cancers by comparing transcriptomes of the normal endometrium and endometrial tumors from humans. We identified the cell cycle component cyclin B1, encoded by CCNB1, as among the most differentially expressed genes, transcriptome-wide, in cancers of the endometrium. CCNB1 was expressed at significantly higher levels in endometrial tumor tissues as compared to the endometrium. Importantly, high primary tumor expression of CCNB1 was correlated with worse overall survival in patients with endometrial cancer. Together, the data reveal over-expression of CCNB1 in human endometrial cancer and describe specific activation of the cell cycle in cancers of the endometrium.

ORMDL3 is a differentially expressed gene in brain metastatic human breast cancer.
Authors: Mamoor Shahan
Published: January 2021

Metastasis to the brain is a clinical problem in patients with breast cancer (1-3). We mined published microarray data (4, 5) to compare primary and metastatic tumor transcriptomes for the discovery of genes associated with brain metastasis in humans with metastatic breast cancer. We found that ORMDL sphingolipid biosynthesis regulator 3, encoded by ORMDL3, was among the genes whose expression was most different in the brain metastases of patients with metastatic breast cancer as compared to primary tumors of the breast. ORMDL3 mRNA was present at increased quantities in brain metastatic tissues as compared to primary tumors of the breast. Importantly, expression of ORMDL3 in primary tumors was significantly correlated with patient overall survival. Modulation of ORMDL3 expression may be relevant to the biology by which tumor cells metastasize from the breast to the brain in humans with metastatic breast cancer.

The future is in front, to the right, or below: Development of spatial representations of time in three dimensions
Authors: Starr Ariel , Srinivasan Mahesh
Published: January 2021

Across cultures, people frequently communicate about time in terms of space. English speakers in the United States, for example, might “look forward” to the future or gesture toward the left when talking about the past. As shown by these examples, different dimensions of space are used to represent different temporal concepts. Here, we explored how cultural factors and individual differences shape the development of two types of spatiotemporal representations in 6- to 15-year-old children: the horizontal/vertical mental timeline (in which past and future events are placed on a horizontal or vertical line that is external to the body) and the sagittal mental timeline (in which events are placed on a line that runs through the front-back axis of the body). We tested children in India because the prevalence of both horizontal and vertical calendars there provided a unique opportunity to investigate how calendar orientation and writing direction might each influence the development of the horizontal/vertical mental timeline. Our results suggest that the horizontal/vertical mental timeline and the sagittal mental timeline are constructed in parallel throughout childhood and become increasingly aligned with culturally-conventional orientations. Additionally, we show that experience with calendars may influence the orientation of children’s horizontal/vertical mental timelines, and that individual differences in children’s attitudes toward the past and future may influence the orientation of their sagittal mental timelines. Taken together, our results demonstrate that children are sensitive to both cultural and personal factors when building mental models of time.
Effects of tone duration on three psychophysical measures of temporal integration in rhesus macaques
Authors: Mackey Chase , Tarabillo Alejandro , Ramachandran Ramnarayan
Published: January 2021

The relationship between sound duration and detection performance has long been thought to reflect temporal integration, and has been well studied in both humans and animal models. Reports of species differences are equivocal, with some metanalyses reporting no species differences, and others reporting substantial differences. This renders translational work in animals problematic. To re-evaluate this issue, tone detection performance was measured in rhesus macaques using a Go/No-Go reaction time detection task at various stimulus durations, and in the presence of broadband noise (BBN). Detection thresholds, reaction times (RT), and psychometric function slopes were calculated. All three measures were sensitive to tone duration, consistent with temporal integration. The rate of threshold change with duration was similar to human data, and was equally well fit by power law and exponential functions. The effect of tone duration on RT is the first reported in animals. BBN significantly affected how slopes changed with duration, and elevated thresholds, but did not affect how threshold or RT changed with duration. To begin investigating what processes may underlie these behavioral measures, the data were then compared to data generated using a probabilistic Poisson process model, previously compared to human data. The Poisson model recapitulated the effects of duration on threshold and psychometric slope. These behavioral data provide evidence that macaques are an exceptional model of human temporal integration, and the modeling results point the way forward for future neurophysiological studies.
Perinatal Mental Health During the COVID-19 Pandemic: Evidence for Heightened Distress in Pregnant Women Highlights the Need for Novel Interventions
Authors: Morris Alyssa Rae , Traube Dorian , Lakshmanan Ashwini , West Amy , Saxbe Darby
Published: January 2021

This manuscript reports on a sample of 641 pregnant women surveyed in spring 2020, during the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic when social distancing was at its peak in the United States. Expectant mothers described elevated psychological distress, perceived stress, loneliness, and many behavioral changes. More than half of the women in the sample endorsed depressive symptoms above clinical threshold and two-thirds reported clinically significant anxiety, with average scores for depression, anxiety, and stress more than a standard deviation higher than those measured pre-pandemic. Given this early evidence for heightened distress, treatment options that can be targeted to support perinatal women and comply with social distancing guidelines are needed. The final sections of this paper highlight the promising role of telehealth modalities and discuss specific interventions, such as Interpersonal Therapy, that may be particularly useful in treating perinatal women in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. Public Significance: The COVID-19 pandemic has had sweeping effects on perinatal mental health, which in turn has wide-ranging impacts for maternal, child, and family well-being. This paper describes treatment approaches that may ameliorate the pandemic’s impact.

Longitudinal changes in psychological distress in the UK from 2019 to September 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic: Evidence from a large nationally representative study
Authors: Daly Michael , Robinson Eric
Published: January 2021

In a large (n =10918), national, longitudinal probability-based sample of UK adults the prevalence of clinically significant psychological distress rose from prepandemic levels of 20.8% in 2019 to 29.5% in April 2020 and then declined significantly to prepandemic levels by September (20.8%). Longitudinal analyses showed that all demographic groups examined (age, sex, race/ethnicity, income) experienced increases in distress after the onset of the pandemic followed by significant decreases. By September 2020 distress levels were indistinguishable from prepandemic levels for all groups. This recovery may reflect the influence of the easing of restrictions and psychological adaptation to the demands of the pandemic.

Validation of the Virtual Reality Neuroscience Questionnaire: Maximum Duration of Immersive Virtual Reality Sessions Without the Presence of Pertinent Adverse Symptomatology
Authors: Kourtesis Panagiotis , Collina Simona , Doumas Leonidas A. A. , MacPherson Sarah E.
Published: January 2021

There are major concerns about the suitability of immersive virtual reality (VR) systems (i.e., head-mounted display; HMD) to be implemented in research and clinical settings, because of the presence of nausea, dizziness, disorientation, fatigue, and instability (i.e., VR induced symptoms and effects; VRISE). Research suggests that the duration of a VR session modulates the presence and intensity of VRISE, but there are no suggestions regarding the appropriate maximum duration of VR sessions. The implementation of high-end VR HMDs in conjunction with ergonomic VR software seems to mitigate the presence of VRISE substantially. However, a brief tool does not currently exist to appraise and report both the quality of software features and VRISE intensity quantitatively. The Virtual Reality Neuroscience Questionnaire (VRNQ) was developed to assess the quality of VR software in terms of user experience, game mechanics, in-game assistance, and VRISE. Forty participants aged between 28 and 43 years were recruited (18 gamers and 22 non-gamers) for the study. They participated in 3 different VR sessions until they felt weary or discomfort and subsequently filled in the VRNQ. Our results demonstrated that VRNQ is a valid tool for assessing VR software as it has good convergent, discriminant, and construct validity. The maximum duration of VR sessions should be between 55 and 70 min when the VR software meets or exceeds the parsimonious cut-offs of the VRNQ and the users are familiarized with the VR system. Also, the gaming experience does not seem to affect how long VR sessions should last. Also, while the quality of VR software substantially modulates the maximum duration of VR sessions, age and education do not. Finally, deeper immersion, better quality of graphics and sound, and more helpful in-game instructions and prompts were found to reduce VRISE intensity. The VRNQ facilitates the brief assessment and reporting of the quality of VR software features and/or the intensity of VRISE, while its minimum and parsimonious cut-offs may appraise the suitability of VR software for implementation in research and clinical settings. The findings of this study contribute to the establishment of rigorous VR methods that are crucial for the viability of immersive VR as a research and clinical tool in cognitive neuroscience and neuropsychology.
The danger of inferring causal direction from a partialling technique with longitudinal data
Authors: Dishop Christopher , DeShon Richard P.
Published: January 2021

A growing number of researchers in organizational science are interested in directionality and have begun using a statistical routine to support inferences of causal direction. The technique involves partialling a prior observation of the outcome variable, and doing so is thought to mitigate concerns of reverse causality. We review the technique and then evaluate its ability to discriminate directional effects using Monte Carlo simulations. Our results demonstrate that directional inferences cannot be established using this statistical approach. We therefore suggest caution when directional inferences are based on statistical modeling only. We recommend that researchers stress their assumptions when inferring causal direction rather than relying on statistics alone.

Authors: Al-Dahmashi Eman Moqbel
Published: January 2021

The present study explored some basic cultural problems that translators face during subtitling audiovisual texts, particularly TV series from English into Arabic. The study also provided functional analysis of the solutions occasionally chosen by professional Netflix subtitlers to overcome those cultural problems. The study aimed at showing whether the strategies frequently chosen by the subtitler to deal with particular problematic cultural features were equally successful in achieving functional adequacy in the TT. The researcher integrated Vermeer’s functionally based Skopos theory into Newmark's translation procedures to provide a descriptive functional analysis of 44 examples taken from the American series, Thirteen Reasons Why. The content-analysis led to two main findings. The first was related to the most frequent strategies used to render the intended skopos (functions) of the source cultural features; paraphrase being the highest in use since it was used 18 times out of 44. The second finding was that the rate of frequency of strategies chosen correlated strictly with the rate of functional adequacy of these strategies. Paraphrase achieved its intended functions adequately in 15 out of 18 examples
Communication challenges: Saudi EFL Speaking Skills and strategies to overcome speaking difficulties
Authors: Kashmiri Hayat Ahmad
Published: January 2021

The purpose of this study to present the findings of research conducted to challenges faced by Saudi English as foreign language (EFL) learners and to formulate some strategies to overcome their speaking difficulties. In Saudi Arabia, there is a widely held perception that it is possible for the EFL learners to attain the high levels of proficiency in writing reading and listening, but they cannot speak English as compared to their peers from around the globe. This is quite concerning as these students have selective and compulsory English courses that run through their almost ten years of compulsory school education. The challenges to speaking by these students had formerly been addressed by sorting out the challenges of deficiencies in teacher development and teacher education, learners’ autonomy lack of material and technology in the EFL classes and anxiety in learning a foreign language. The purpose is to seek answers to the challenges of speaking English from the Saudi speaking EFL students themselves. In order to do that a sample of 66 students who have enrolled in year one of intensive preparatory English class will be used. A mixed method research design will be used in the triangulation of the findings for higher validity. Quantitative data will be analyzed with software for data analysis while qualitative data will be analyzed by making use of descriptive analysis. The findings will help to identify the reasons why speaking English is a challenge for Saudi EFL students which will help in the formulation of strategies to overcome such challenges.

Authors: Almogheerah Ameera
Published: January 2021

The study aimed at investigating the effect of using WhatsApp-based learning activities on developing idiom knowledge among Saudi university English as a foreign language (EFL) students compared to conventional method. It also examined the students’ perceptions towards the application of WhatsApp in idiom-learning. The rationale for conducting this study is to provide students with useful learning tools that may improve their idiomatic knowledge and also help them to practice English idioms anytime and anywhere outside the classroom. It also aimed to help teachers to streamline EFL instruction, making it more efficient, effective, and user-friendly. As such, the main research questions are what is the effect of WhatsApp-based learning activities on developing university female EFL students? and what are Saudi female EFL students’ perceptions on learning idioms using WhatsApp?. To answer these questions, 70 EFL female students in the Department of English Language and literature at Imam Mohammad ibn Saud Islamic University (IMSIU) involved in the study. They were assigned into two groups; experimental group, who was taught English idioms via WhatsApp-based learning activities, and control group, who was taught English idioms conventionally in classroom. Two instruments were used to collect the data; a pre-post idioms achievement test and a post-study questionnaire. The findings demonstrated that the experimental group significantly outperformed the control group in idioms achievement post-test. Moreover, the results showed that the majority of the experimental group had a positive perception towards learning English idioms via WhatsApp.

Authors: Altalhi Shatha Abdulrahman
Published: January 2021

This study reports on EFL teachers’ personal beliefs regarding motivational strategies, and details how teachers apply motivational strategies in the EFL Saudi classrooms. A discussion is included about the extent to which motivational strategies influence EFL learners’ attitudes toward language learning, because of the need of using motivational strategies in EFL classrooms at Taif university, this research used a mixed approach research design, and accordingly, the researcher used one questionnaire that was adapted Dornyie & Cheng (2007) to ask about eighteen teachers’ beliefs concerning motivational strategies and used a similar questionnaire with 150 first-year students to evaluate how their teachers apply the motivational strategies in the EFL classroom. Students’ attitudes toward L2 learning were further measured by another adapted questionnaire of Eshghinejad (2016). Also, 10 students divided to high and low achievement were interviewed to provide in-depth investigation and to seek reliable results. The findings revealed that the EFL teachers believed in and used motivational strategies in their classrooms. In addition, there was a statistically significant correlation between what they believe and what they practice. From the data on learners’ attitudes, results reflected that the students have positive attitudes toward language learning especially in the emotional aspects. The interviews revealed that high and low achieving students reported positive attitudes to the behavioral and cognitive aspects, while they showed little to the emotional aspects of language learning.

Published: January 2021

This paper aims to demonstrate the effectiveness of the Conversation Analysis Tool in the context of teaching world literature to senior students majoring in English philology. The authors present their experience of undertaking a three-month online course “Constructive Classroom Conversations: Mastering Language for College and Career Readiness,” hosted by Stanford University, and discuss the benefits of applying this tool at universities. The study describes the basic mechanisms of the Conversation Analysis Tool aimed at developing specific communication skills in students of English for Speakers of Other Languages. The central research question is whether this method is as feasible for teaching literature as it is for language classrooms. The authors demonstrate their takeaways from applying this technique in teaching world literature, namely, analyzing literary dialogues in different classroom activities. The research findings indicate that the Conversation Analysis Tool is an efficient method for the formative assessment of senior students in the world literature classroom. This technique helps students reveal the pragmatic features of fiction dialogues, the writer’s narrative intentions, and the reader’s expected reception. The suggested method also demonstrates students’ progress in the studied topics and identifies possible gaps in mastering the educational content. The significance of the study extends beyond the specified context, as the search for novel instruction techniques targeted at improving communication skills in the 21st-century globalized world is relevant for any educational sphere. Consequently, the research findings of this paper can be applied in different teaching settings.
Framing Dynamics and Claimsmaking after the Parkland Shooting
Authors: Rohlinger Deana , Allen Warren , DeLucchi Caitria
Published: January 2021

This paper unpacks how dynamic political and media systems shape the kinds of frames political actors champion, when and how they express support for frames and the implications of both for individual claimsmaking. To do so, we conduct a rigorous qualitative analysis of discourse during a two-week period in which the Florida legislature considered and passed the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School Public Safety Act after a shooter killed 17 people in Parkland, Florida. We systematically explore how two framing dynamics – competition and amplification – shape what frames political actors champion and the relative effects of these dynamics on individual claimsmaking in 438 letters to the editor and op-eds appearing in mainstream outlets, 4,962 emails sent to Florida Governor Rick Scott, and 1,000 tweets. We find that amplification and competition shape the relative visibility of frames and the frequency with which individuals use these frames in their claimsmaking. Generally speaking, gun control and progressive groups selectively amplified frames associated with the emerging, student-led Never Again Marjory Stoneman Douglas movement and legislative frames that were consistent with their goals. This seems to have increased the visibility of these ideas in mainstream outlets and influenced claimsmaking insofar as individuals drew on amplified frames across the forums relatively frequently. This was not true of frames opposing gun control. Gun rights groups bickered with politicians and among themselves. As a result, gun rights frames were less prevalent in mainstream discourse and in individual claimsmaking.
THE EMOTION OF JOY IN SOCIAL NETWORKS: VERBAL, PARAVERBAL AND NONVERBAL FORMS OF EXPRESSION
Authors: Kolmogorova A.V. , Akhmadeeva S.R.
Published: January 2021

The article explores the text data of the Internet-comments published on social networks by fans to celebrate the victory of their favorite sportsmen. The aim of the publication is to analyze verbal, paraverbal and nonverbal forms of emotion expression in two groups of fans: those who are keen on sports profiling typically masculine properties (strength, audacity, endurance), and, on the contrary, those who are passionate about the sport performance featuring feminine characteristics (grace, beauty, flexibility). The conducted comparative analysis gives evidence about the presence of a number of specific features due to the effect of gender factor. However, this factor largely correlates with other variables, such as linguacultural patterns, the nature of the sport itself (team sport vs individual sport).
