CONSTRUÇÕES PARENTÉTICAS EPISTÊMICAS EM PERSPECTIVA CONSTRUCIONAL
Authors: Gonçalves Sebastião Carlos Leite
Published: October 2020

Investigo, neste artigo, construções parentéticas epistêmicas originadas de um esquema construcional formado por oração matriz com predicador adjetival e oração encaixada em posição argumental de sujeito. Assumindo os pressupostos teórico-metodológicos da Linguística Cognitivo-Funcional (CROFT, 2001; TRAUGOTT, 2008) e com base em dados de língua falada e escrita do português brasileiro contemporâneo, mostro que construções matrizes com predicadores adjetivais epistêmicos, ao se gramaticalizarem, passam a funcionar como construções parentéticas epistêmicas asseverativas focalizadoras. A identificação de níveis de esquematicidade das construções em análise ao mesmo tempo em que permite inferir um processo diacrônico de mudança de padrões construcionais lança pistas para a constituição de um quadro explanatório mais amplo acerca da formação e do funcionamento de construções parentéticas epistêmicas.
NEM NACIONAL, NEM REALMENTE ARTÍSTICA, MAS NEM POR ISSO DESPREZÍVEL: A MÚSICA POPULAR AOS OUVIDOS DE MÁRIO DE ANDRADE
Authors: Santos André Domingues dos
Published: October 2020

Persiste uma visão bastante negativa na crítica a respeito da relação dos modernistas, sobretudo de Mário de Andrade, com a Música Popular. O presente estudo busca reavaliar a questão à luz dos escritos de Mário, explorando tanto as interlocuções internas do modernismo, quanto a produção crítica e a prática artística (em que se comenta uma obscura parceria de Mário de Andrade com o pianista Marcelo Tupinambá, “Canção marinha”). Bem menos do que uma recusa mecânica, observa-se no autor uma complexa operação eletiva de elementos para exaltação ou repúdio nas obras de artistas da Música Popular.
O RISO E A LITERATURA DE HILDA HILST: “A ESPIRAL NÃO TEM COMEÇO NEM FIM”
Authors: A-mi Jo
Published: October 2020

Esse artigo tem como objetivo falar da categoria Riso como apanágio da literatura da escritora Hilda Hilst. Processo-efeito, vislumbre de uma escrita que sem lugares para começo e fim, dá-se pela (des)ordem do riso em escalas contínuas e incessantes, cíclicas, de ritmos fugidios e permanentes: como uma espiral. Para tal, o texto foi dividido em dois momentos: primeiro, num apanhado geral acerca do conceito de riso enquanto categoria histórico-literária; e, segundo, do riso que se apropria (ou é apropriado) na/pela literatura de Hilda Hilst em escalas próprias: do riso ingênuo ao riso grotesco.
A RELAÇÃO ENTRE DIALETOLOGIA E HISTÓRIA: REFLEXÕES TEÓRICO-METODOLÓGICAS PARA O ESTUDO DO PORTUGUÊS USADO EM MINAS GERAIS
Authors: Rocha Ana Paula Antunes , Andrade Francisco Eduardo
Published: October 2020

Este texto apresenta uma síntese dos trabalhos dialetológicos já realizados sobre Minas Gerais. A descrição do português usado no estado aponta a delimitação de três ou quatro áreas dialetais básicas, divisão que aparentemente pode ser explicada por fatores históricos. O objetivo do texto é discutir os problemas decorrentes da tentativa de se explicar a divisão dialetal do estado à luz da cartografia e da historicidade convencionais, as quais nem sempre levam em conta o dinamismo do tempo e do espaço.
‘CRY ME A RIVER’: METAPHORIC HYPERBOLES IN THE INTERFACE BETWEEN DISCOURSE AND COGNITION
Authors: Vereza Solange Coelho
Published: October 2020

This paper aims at analyzing metaphor as a frequent semantic realization of “the language of excess” (WEBB, 1993), i.e., hyperbole. The hypothesis to be explored is twofold: firstly, from a discursive perspective, hyperbole aims at transcending a language repertoire available for expressing intensity and gradability, and as a corollary of that, subjectivity and evaluation. In this respect, metaphor, both conventional and novel, realizes, linguistically, this intensity with both discursive and cognitive effects, by drawing elements of the source domain which serve this dual purpose. The second hypothesis to guide our research refers to the conceptual nature of the vehicle term, in other words, the metaphoric hyperbole used. Our suggestion is that, within a conceptual scale involving elements of a particular frame, the one which is selected is the prototype of that category, which is used metaphorically with hyperbolic effects. The theoretical framework underlying the research involves the concepts of hyperbole, as defined by Claridge (2011), graduation (MARTIN; WHITE, 2005), conceptual metaphor (LAKOFF; JONHSON, 1980) and prototype (ROSCH, 1979, 1983). A brief analysis of the conventional hyperbolic expression cry me a river, with examples drawn form a general corpus, will illustrate the discussion presented in the paper.
MUDANÇA FICTIVA EM CORPUS DE FALA ESPONTÂNEA DO PB
Authors: Rocha Luiz Fernando Matos , Paula Luciana Andrade , Andrade Márcia do Prado
Published: October 2020

Este trabalho investiga construções linguísticas de mudança fictiva em corpus de fala espontânea do Português Brasileiro (PB). Instanciam-se em exemplos como O quarto ficou muito maior depois que retiraram os móveis, em que uma mudança expressa pelo predicado ocorre apenas em função da percepção/concepção do conceptualizador. Em outros termos, o quarto não tem suas dimensões concretamente ampliadas, porém o caráter resultativo dessa mudança se dá apenas no plano subjetivo. Alguns autores em Linguística Cognitiva (LC) vêm tratando desse fenômeno, como Sweetser (1996, 1997) e Matsumoto (1996), os quais mostram que a visão de um dado objeto passa a assumir outra dimensão, forma ou estado quando ocorre uma mudança na percepção do conceptualizador. Tais aspectos teóricos lançam as bases da verificação de viabilidade empírica da categoria mudança fictiva em dados reais de fala do PB. Para tanto, a metodologia se alinha à busca de ocorrências de verbos de mudança de estado (e.g. "ficar", "virar", "tornar") na parte informal do corpus C-ORAL-BRASIL (RASO & MELLO, 2012), associada à oitiva dos arquivos em áudio. Com isso, foram elencados padrões de extensão espacial, temporal e corporal, em que a mudança é apenas de caráter subjetivo ou fictivo. Os resultados ainda apontam para o fato de que a construção se relaciona a uma quebra da expectativa default (ou seja, quartos não têm suas dimensões alteradas por conta da retirada de móveis), resultando em algo que só existe conceptualmente (ou seja, ocorre uma construção resultativa, em que o quarto se torna subjetivamente maior).
A CONSTRUÇÃO COM VERBOS DE COGNIÇÃO NO PORTUGUÊS BRASILEIRO: UM ESTUDO PRELIMINAR
Authors: Costa Sheyla Patricia Trindade da Silva , Furtado da Cunha Maria Angélica
Published: October 2020

Este artigo apresenta uma análise preliminar acerca da estrutura argumental com verbos de cognição no português brasileiro. Os dados analisados foram coletados em uma entrevista sociolinguística, cujo informante é um homem representante da fala de Natal/RN, de 50 anos, com nível de escolaridade de Ensino Fundamental II. Os resultados obtidos demonstram que a construção de estrutura argumental prototípica para os verbos de cognição corresponde a um subesquema da construção transitiva prototípica e é instanciada na grande maioria dos construtos, os quais remetem a subesquemas mais específicos, a depender do item linguístico que assume a função de objeto direto. O suporte teórico adotado é o da Linguística Funcional Centrada no Uso (LFCU), um modelo teórico-metodológico que absorve princípios, processos e categorias integrantes da linguística funcional norte-americana e da linguística cognitiva.
A CONSTRUÇÃO DO ‘ETHOS’ NOS DISCURSOS DO PAPA FRANCISCO
Authors: Boaventura Luis Henrique , Freitas Ernani Cesar de
Published: October 2020

Este trabalho objetiva investigar a construção de uma nova liderança na Igreja Católica sob a luz dos estudos da cenografia e ethos por Dominique Maingueneau (2008a, 2008b, 2008c, 2008d), a construção da imagem de si no discurso. A pesquisa se concentra em um infográfico do jornal Correio Braziliense, na entrevista do Papa Francisco concedida ao Padre Antonio Spadaro e publicada na revista Civiltà Cattolica, em setembro de 2013, e na Exortação Apostólica Evangelii Gaudium — A Alegria do Evangelho, publicada em novembro de 2013. Este estudo procura demonstrar que Bergoglio trabalha para constituir um ethos de humildade e abnegação que encontra força e legitimidade pelo contraste com a figura do pontífice emérito Joseph Ratzinger, seu antifiador, representante de um conjunto de valores no qual o católico atual não reconhece mais liderança. A pesquisa também pretende ilustrar o porquê de a reforma prometida com a sobrevinda de Bergoglio ao papado dificilmente corresponderia à reforma imaginada pela jovem comunidade católica no mundo. Será demonstrado que a mudança mais significativa dos dois primeiros anos do novo papa se deve ao tom de seu discurso, não a intenções de mudança em qualquer aspecto da doutrina.
POR QUE SE EXPLICAR? A NORMALIDADE CONSTRUÍDA POR MEIO DA LINGUAGEM NO CONSULTÓRIO ONCOLÓGICO
Authors: Souza Joseane , Ostermann Ana Cristina
Published: October 2020

Este artigo analisa a atividade de prestação de contas, ou accounts, que, por sua vez, circunscreve ações (formas de agir por meio da fala-em-interação) realizadas por uma paciente com câncer de mama quando em consulta de revisão com seu oncologista. Os dados aqui analisados fazem parte de um corpus de 20 consultas gravadas em áudio nos anos de 2012 e 2014 entre oncologistas e pacientes com câncer de mama em um hospital privado da região sul do Brasil. As interações foram transcritas e analisadas a partir das abordagens teórico-metodológicas da Análise da Conversa e das Categorias de Pertença (SACKS, 1992). A linha argumentativa central do artigo consiste em demonstrar como as prestações de contas produzidas pela paciente transformam (no sentido de renovar) o contexto interacional, ao solicitarem uma afiliação do médico e, assim, construírem a normalidade da situação experienciada pela paciente. A análise sequencial evidencia as ações sociais e consequências interacionais que uma narrativa não solicitada pode gerar não apenas para o contexto sequencial, mas também para o reestabelecimento e a reconstituição da normalidade e da ordem moral, de forma mais larga.
ENSINO DE VOCABULÁRIO E COMPETÊNCIA LEXICAL
Authors: Gil Beatriz Daruj
Published: October 2020

Discutem-se neste artigo, por meio de uma reflexão teórica seguida de uma proposta de ensino do léxico, aspectos semânticos, discursivos e gramaticais que compõem a competência lexical. Contrária a práticas de ensino tradicionais que se baseiam no princípio da equivalência lexical, esta discussão permite constatar que o conhecimento da palavra não está restrito ao aspecto semântico, mas se estende às relações paradigmáticas e sintagmáticas estabelecidas pela palavra em sua trajetória histórico-discursiva, às suas propriedades gramaticais, e às condições de produção, circulação e recepção dos textos em que está atualizada.
Intriga e narrativa. Duas operações da imaginação social
Authors: Mora Ernesto
Published: October 2020

Neste artigo, examinamos a hipótese de que a narrativa e a intriga devem ser entendidas como dois conceitos diferentes no interior da teoria narrativa contemporânea. O argumento principal para sustentar essa distinção consiste na ideia de que tanto a narrativa quanto a intriga são operações cognitivas com fins específicos para diversas atividades humanas, especialmente, para a imaginação social. Tal distinção, aparentemente óbvia, é largamente negligenciada nas várias correntes atuais da teoria social que fazem uso do termo narrativa. Ao fazer isso, essas correntes limitam a análise dos potenciais cognitivos desse dispositivo do discurso. Com base nesse argumento, definiremos brevemente, em um primeiro momento, os conceitos de intriga e narrativa e, em segundo lugar, faremos uma discussão a respeito do retorno dos conceitos de estrutura e de sistema nos estudos da narrativa. Posteriormente, desenvolveremos algumas hipóteses sobre os aspectos cognitivos ativados pela construção da intriga e da narrativa. Finalmente, apresentaremos os vários aspectos da imaginação social nos quais os dois conceitos podem ser aplicados.
Murmúrios da escrita em Jesusalém
Authors: Antunes Costa Luana
Published: October 2020

O presente artigo é fruto de um capítulo de nossa tese de doutoramento,“Traços do chão, tramas do mundo: representações do político na escrita de Mia Couto e Patrick Chamoiseau” (USP/2014). Propomos analisar as configurações das personagens femininas do romance Jesusalém (2009) e do que percebemos ser a movimentação do discurso engajado do escritor Mia Couto sobre o sujeito feminino. Daí a necessidade de destacarmos a elaboração da personagem Marta que, ao escrever seus cadernos, reinscreve sua intimidade, suas recordações, encontrando no menino Mwanito a atenção de seu primeiro leitor, ansioso por descortinar as primeiras letras do corpo feminino. Para esta leitura, queremos debater a noção de sujeito subalterno marcado por sua posição feminina, elaborada pela crítica indiana Guayatri Spivak (2010); propomos, ainda, destacar tópicos das relações de gênero, no contexto social moçambicano, sugeridos pelas pesquisas da socióloga moçambicana Conceição Osório (2010); potencializar formas autobiográficas, representadas na ficção, como nos ensina Philippe Lejeune (2000) e, assim, estabelecer um diálogo com as vozes femininas murmurantes nas páginas de Novas cartas portuguesas (2010), das poetisas Maria Isabel Barreno, Maria Teresa Horta e Maria Velho da Costa.
Espelho, espelho meu?

Embora vários autores já tenham escrito sobre o conto “O espelho ou esboço de uma nova teoria da alma humana”, de Machado de Assis, propomos, neste artigo, uma releitura desse conto, a partir de algumas noções do ensino do psicanalista francês Jacques Lacan, principalmente no que diz respeito ao ‘estádio do espelho’ e suas implicações no mundo em que vivemos.
A Maldição do Vale Negro e a inversão das fórmulas de fazer chorar
Authors: Guenzburger Gustavo
Published: October 2020

Explorando o conceito das fórmulas afetivas de Aby Warburg, este trabalho acompanha o processo de inversão das velhas formas melodramáticas que se apresenta na montagem carioca de 1988 de A Maldição do Vale Negro, texto de Caio Fernando Abreu e Luiz Arthur Nunes. Pela perspectiva da recepção da peça, o artigo busca também situar este mecanismo, e o próprio espetáculo, no contexto do teatro carioca, que se reformulava diante de um novo cenário cultural de universalização das telenovelas e de seu estilo naturalista de atuação.
Ethnicity in motion? German language islands in Brazil and Russia
Authors: Rosenberg Peter Klaus
Published: October 2020

Today, German language islands in Russia and Brazil are on the way to language shift. On this way, the varieties of these communities display certain features of decomposition and simplification in terms of morphology. Regular and irregular morphology, however, are developing differently: while case reduction is the main characteristic of regular noun inflection, in personal pronouns case distinctions are maintained. Results are presented from a research project about language change in case morphology of German language islands with 125 speakers living in close contact to the majority populations in Brazil and Ruguage obsolescence as from language emergence which has been the subject of linguistic research in the past. Through its comparative perspective, it seems possible to accoussia. The core idea of the project is the assumption that we can learn as well from lannt for internally or externally induced linguistic change. Language decay is apparently not just disorder, not amorphous, but somehow struc­tured. Certain lexical classes are more subject to reduction than others, and some residual features retain morphological “core” functions (in terms of case semantics). Language change is accelerated in times of blurring sociolinguistic differences and fading linguistic norms as an implication of losing ethnic boundaries. The recent co-officialization of minority languages in Brazil might slow down these processes. In a transcultural approach, teaching of Pomeranian as minority language (alongside the national language) could stabilize the local linguistic community, building a bridge to the High German standard language, and even to English as a lingua franca of international communication.
Precarious humanity: the double in dystopian science fiction
Authors: Cardoso André Cabral de Almeida
Published: October 2020

The double is a common feature in fantastic fiction, and it plays a prominent part in the Gothic revival of the late nineteenth century. It questions the notion of a coherent identity by proposing the idea of a fragmented self that is at the same time familiar and frighteningly other. On the other hand, the double is also a way of representing the tensions of life in large urban centers. Although it is more usually associated with the fantastic, the motif of the double has spread to other fictional genres, including science fiction, a genre also concerned with the investigation of identity and the nature of the human. The aim of this article is to discuss the representation of the double in contemporary science fiction, more particularly in its dystopian mode, where the issue of identity acquires a special relevance, since dystopias focus on the troubled relation between individual and society. Works such as Greg Egan’s short story “Learning to Be Me”; White Christmas, an episode from the television series Black Mirror; Kazuo Ishiguro’s novel Never Let Me Go; and the film Moon, directed by Duncan Jones, will be briefly examined in order to trace the ways the figure of the double has been rearticulated in dystopian science fiction as a means to address new concerns about personal identity and the position of the individual in society.---Original in English.

La Reconfiguración del Canon Literario Cubano: Crítica Literaria Contemporánea y Perspectiva de Género en Cuba (1989 – 2012)
Authors: Rodríguez Domínguez Raiza
Published: October 2020

El trabajo problematiza la relación entre crítica literaria y canon en el campo cultural cubano. Evalúa las intervenciones de la crítica literaria genéricamente marcada en la reconfiguración del canon literario nacional. Plantea que la crítica tradicional (patriarcal, hegemónica, autoritaria) cubana se fundamenta en mitos construidos históricamente sobre la literatura de las autoras, particularmente en los de su presunta precariedad, ahistoricidad e inferioridad, los cuales han sido el argumento para su deliberada discriminación. Estudia el ensayo y la crítica literaria escrita por académicas cubanas (Luisa Campuzano, Nara Araújo, Mirta Yáñez, Susana Montero, Zaida Capote) desde una perspectiva de género conscientemente asumida. Ofrece un panorama del desarrollo de los estudios de género en Cuba desde la década del ochenta hasta 2012.
Memes, sátiras y tropos en Cuba

En Cuba, la división entre esferas pública y privada de la sociedad, el monopolio de los medios de comunicación,así como el llamado a la soberanía nacional, mantienen una atmósfera cívica donde las personas han sabidono emitir juicios de exposición más radicales de lo necesario. En este ecosistema, discursos de diverso gradodiscordante impregnan la vida cotidiana, por lo que un entorno de interacción es básico para la autoafirmacióny posterior creación de actos de contención, de discursos divergentes, y de resistencia pacífica. En estesentido, expresiones culturales digitales, acorde al repertorio modular contemporáneo de memes, etiquetasy posts, pueden considerarse vehículos infrapolíticos utilizados por una sociedad subordinada, para resistirlas distorsiones autoritarias en los flujos de comunicación. Las tendencias digitales han sabido aprovechar lapérdida de legitimidad simbólica para cuestionar dinámicas de poder desde un lenguaje satírico, tanto comode elementos codificados y de significación costumbrista. El presente ensayo analiza desde la lingüística, lasociología y la etnosemántica expresiones en medios digitales como memes, etiquetas y posts, así como surelación/función entre la cultura popular, la ciudadanía y las políticas estatales.
Gentrificación rururbana en ciudades intermedias
Authors: Acosta-Nates Paola , Tocancipá-Falla Jairo
Published: October 2020

Este artículo analiza y discute la naturaleza del proceso de gentrificación rururbana que se está desarrollando en la vereda La Florida en Villamaría (Caldas) y la vereda Clarete (Popayán, Cauca), Colombia. Los casos examinados permiten una revisión teórica-conceptual y normativa que contribuye a esclarecer, desde una perspectiva comparativa, los procesos de gentrificación que vienen ocurriendo en dos ciudades intermedias en Colombia. De un lado, se presenta un proceso residencial intensivo que revela el resultado de una especulación inmobiliaria (caso La Florida), y del otro, se documenta un proceso de transformación territorial que implica un reordenamiento de las relaciones entre campesinos y profesionales citadinos (caso Clarete). Conceptos como el de gentrificación rururbana, territorialidad, territorialización y ordenamiento territorial resultan pertinentes para explicar lo que sucede en la frontera urbano-rural. A nivel metodológico, nos apoyamos en la investigación documental y etnográfica territorial realizada a través de entrevistas abiertas y estructuradas, observaciones, recorridos topográficos, y compendios fotográficos.
Participación de los jóvenes en el entorno comunitario
Authors: Ramírez Varela Francisco Xavier
Published: October 2020

Young people participating in community spaces will understand the heterogeneity and diversity of forms and environments, from there, they construct their definition of participation. In the study conducted in various neighborhoods with young people from vulnerable sectors in Chile, contrary to what is assumed, we found high levels of youth participation. In this way, we can verify that young people find answers to their needs in local areas. Answers that they had lost due to disaffection and distance of conventional political and citizen participation.
Aproximaciones al concepto de imaginario social
Authors: García-Rodríguez Gustavo Octavio
Published: October 2020

Este artículo ofrece una serie de elementos para introducir al lector en la comprensión del concepto de imaginario social, concepto polivalente que cuenta con una importante tradición y que amerita un acercamiento minucioso; un concepto abierto que, en la actualidad, se nutre de perspectivas que lo enriquecen y matizan. En respuesta a dicha situación, se exponen algunos puntos para situar los referentes de su discernimiento, lo que a su vez lo diferencia de conceptos y términos que suelen ubicarse como equivalentes. También se presentan las ideas centrales que, frente al mismo, han desarrollado tres autores que hacen parte de dos corrientes intelectuales: Cornelius Castoriadis, Manuel Antonio Baeza y Juan Luis Pintos. Finalmente, se destaca la riqueza conceptual del imaginario social, su utilidad en el debate teórico-metodológico y práctico de la ciencia social, así como se pretende estimular la discusión e interés al rededor del mismo. En particular, se resalta la posibilidad que abre para contrarrestar el anquilosamiento que produce el afán de proponer y hacer uso de conceptos definidos y cerrados, una suerte de lugar común de la “ciencia verdadera”, ofreciendo caminos innovadores para el ejercicio de la ciencia social en un contexto tan maleable y dúctil como el contemporáneo y, que al ser situado en el escenario latinoamericano y nacional, encuentra panoramas contradictorios y por qué no, hasta irracionales.

Do Political Factors Affect Financial Performance in Public Sector?
Authors: Kamela Hurian , Setyaningrum Dyah
Published: October 2020

Purpose: The implementation of regional autonomy in Indonesia has been regulated based on Laws of the Republic of Indonesia No 23 of the year 2014 concerning the responsibility given by the central government of the regional government to govern its own region. This is defined as regional autonomy. The government has appointed the members of Regional Legislative Councils (Dewan Perwakilan Rakyat Daerah - DPRD) to perform monitoring function on the regional government. There are several political factors which affect this monitoring function, one of which is due to the members of Regional Legislative Council originating from various parties. There is one component which makes up financial performance, which is the Locally-Generated Revenue (Pendapatan Asli Daerah - PAD). High locally-generated revenue gives us a clear description on a region’s success in improving its regional income and therefore being independent from the central government. In the year 2015, the compositition of the party supporting the regent/mayor was equal. Whereas in the year of 2016, the composition has changed, due to regional elections taking place on some cities or districts in Indonesia.

Haematological and Serum Biochemical Profile of Growing Yankasa Ram Lambs Fed Diets Containing Graded Levels of Sesame Residue
Authors: Garba Y. , Adeola E. A.
Published: October 2020

An experiment was carried out to test the effect of Sesame residue (SR) inclusion in the diets of growing Yankasa ram lambs on haematological and serum biochemical parameters. Twelve (12) Yankasa ram lambs with initial body weight of 20.08±3.08kg were allotted to three dietary treatments containing 0, 20 and 30% SR (A, B and C). A completely randomized design was used for the study which lasted twelve (12) weeks. The haemetology results revealed that the white blood cells (12.85-16.85 109/L), red blood cells (1.49-2.04 1012/L), haemoglobin, mean corpuscular haemoglobin concentration (MCHC), mean corpuscular haemoglobin (MCH) (39.85-48.00 pg), mean corpuscular volume (MCV) and lymphocytes differed significantly (P<0.05) among the treatments. Lambs fed 30% SR had the highest MCV, MCH, MCHC and lymphocyte values. Serum biochemical analysis results revealed that lambs fed 20% and 30% SR had higher alkaline phosphatase, total protein and globulin values than lambs fed 0%SR. However, SR inclusion in the diets did not affect calcium and phosphorus levels of the lambs. In conclusion, including sesame residue at 30% in the diets of growing Yankasa ram lambs had no observable adverse effect on haematological and serum biochemical parameters.

The purpose -Block chain has numerous benefits such as decentralization, persistency, anonymity, and auditability. Although a number of studies focus on using the block chain technology in various application aspects, there is not a specific previous study focus on the block chain technology in both technological context and business organizations through the supply chain flows. Therefore, the purpose of this paper empathizes how using the technological theories and block chain technologies through the supply chain will affect it as a whole; in addition to such adoption is very rare to be represented especially in developing countries as this part is fulfilled by our paper research. Design/methodology/approach – Data were collected through a self-created questionnaire a number of 427 respondents were included in the questionnaire analysis which were collected from employees of supply chain and logistics companies. Practical implications – The findings reveal the importance after conducting regression analysis and SEM, it was observed that reducing complexity and lowering supply chain investment costs associated with traditional supply chain transactions were some of the key drivers for block chain adoption, as well as a desire to benefit from enhanced compatibility and regulatory support. However, achieving security is considered as the main and most important driver. Originality/value -This research provides an insight to understand the significant dimensions of block chain adoption, where the dimensions of security, regulatory support, competitive pressure, compatibility, and complexity are found to have a significant effect on block chain adoption.

This approach involves analysis of Ahmed Yerima’s creative portrayal in Hard Ground which revolves around the variables activating conϐlicting emotional interests in matters concerning ‘black gold’ in Nigeria, and how these variables resonant in debates and demands for Nigeria’s polity restructuring because of perceived resource mismanagement. More so, our scope includes an analytical attempt at illuminating elaborately our interpretation of the dimensions to the loud and shrewd inclinations subsuming what some see as solution to the lingering conϐlict, and the suppositions explaining why others see the debates and demands on polity restructuring as dark convoluted ploys aimed at hidden agenda. Hence, through select theories of victimhood, this study attempts to elucidate on the variables propelling conϐlicting emotional interestsabout oil exploration in Niger Delta, by looking interpretively hard and deep on the perspectives, views and suppositions deϐining the ideologies and inclinations propelling them. In the end, this study notes that the disenchantments and troubles with Nigeria’s polity framework and structure as it relates to oil exploration in Niger Delta are subsumed in Hard Ground’s creativecontribution as a means of assessing the points to the fault-lines that characterize the subsisting socio-political structure upon which Nigeria stands and wobbles.

La pandemia de la COVID-19 planteó el rápido diseño y aprobación excepcional de diversos métodos de diagnóstico. En la unidad de diagnóstico COVID- 19 de la FCV-UNLP, se realizó el diagnóstico molecular de la presencia de SARS-CoV-2 en 1114 hisopados de pacientes derivados por el Ministerio de Salud de la Provincia de Buenos Aires. Las muestras de ARN fueron purificadas en cabina de seguridad y se analizaron mediante real time RT-PCR con el kit GeneFinder™ para tres targets virales (N, E y RdRp). De 1110 muestras con reacción al control interno, 458 (41,2%) fueron reactivas, 26,9% a tres targets virales, 4,2% a dos y cerca del 10% a uno (principalmente N). El porcentaje de positividad fue similar en el tiempo, aunque la cantidad fue mayor en julio (781 muestras; 315 reactivas) respecto a junio (333 muestras; 143 reactivas). Las muestras de Berisso, Ensenada y La Plata presentaron un porcentaje de positividad significativamente menor al de los demás municipios (27,6% vs. 60,7%). Las muestras de pacientes con tres o más signos relevantes presentaron una mayor positividad (55,6%) y menor reactividad a un único target. Es necesaria la validación interlaboratorios y la estandarización de los métodos para brindar resultados confiables y reproducibles.

Mastery of English grammar for students in English education departments has a dual purpose, namely to improve their ability to communicate in English fluently and accurately, and to prepare them for becoming English teachers capable of explaining aspects of the English language. Thus, the English grammar course series is expected to equip students with the ability to use the language at the same time as explaining elements of the English language. This investigation aims to improve the learning, learning process, and the results of English grammar courses by integrating the deductive method and holistic assessment approach. This consists of assessment for learning (AfL), assessment as learning (AaL), and assessment of learning (AoL). The study was conducted among 72 fourth-semester students in the English education department at the University of Mataram. Data were collected using various techniques such as tests, observations, portfolios, and documentation, and were analysed qualitatively and quantitatively. From the analysis it was concluded that (1) the materials of EG were designed to fulfil the teaching and learning process by integrating the deductive method and the holistic assessment approach, with the proportion of AfL and AaL higher than that of AoL; (2) the integration produced a significant improvement in the TOEFL test (SWE section), with an increase of 63.24 points – from an average 388.84 on the pre-test to 452.01 on the post-test; (3) students responded positively to both the model used and the implementation of the deductive method and holistic assessment. The practical implication of this research is that those teaching grammar in English education need to consider applying holistic assessment in both design and implementation.
Student and teacher perceptions of student motivation among Korean university English as a Second Language (ESL) students
Authors: Allum Luke Oliver Henry
Published: October 2020

This paper analyses the differences between what teachers say motivates their students and what students say motivate them at a South Korean university. Using motivational constructs developed by Bandura and Maslow in previous motivation studies, it was determined that both teachers and students think teacher characteristics to be the most important variable motivating students, even more important than the student’s own intrinsic motivation. However, there was no agreement between students and teachers on what this looks like specifically in the classroom: teachers prefer to stimulate students’ creative thinking and to help students solve real-world problems, whereas students prefer to learn with digital media, presentations, and quizzes. Teachers and students both believe students to be highly intrinsically motivated, with the caveat that some students come to class lacking intrinsic motivation. This paper is significant in that students report teacher characteristics and instructional methodologies to be of more importance than a student’s intrinsic motivation. This paper reveals that teachers consistently over-rate the importance of teacher characteristics and methodologies on student motivation.
RANCANG BANGUN APLIKASI REKAM MEDIS BAGI PASIEN UNIT KESEHATAN KAMPUS BERBASIS WEB (Studi Kasus: Universitas Muhammadiyah Ponorogo)

To improve health care and processing data for medical records at the Muhammadiyah Ponorogo University campus health unit, a modern medical record information system is needed. The current medical record-recording process in the Muhammadiyah University campus medical unit of Ponorogo is still done by hand, which is by writing in a book and a patient's treatment card. This is running less optimal because an official has to retrieve and retrieve the data that will be needed in a patient's books and treatment cards, so it takes little time and space. The aim of this study is to develop an existing medical record system, becoming a web-based modern medical record system for patients to record clearly and more efficiently. The study begins with observation, study literature, and then follows the design method using the waterfall model, the context diagram design, the flow diagram (DFD), entity relathionship diagram (erd), system interface design and application testing. With the design of this application for medical records, it is hoped to be beneficial and can improve health care at UKK Muhammadiyah University Ponorogo. The design of this medical record application is still in short supply, and few improvements and innovations that the age has developed need to be made.

Edentulus merupakan kehilangan seluruh gigi permanen pada maksila dan mandibula yang mengganggu mastikasi, namun dapat dihindari dengan menggunakan GTL. Tujuan GTL adalah tercapainya performa mastikasi yang baik. Keberhasilan GTL disebabkan oleh GTL yang retentif dan stabil yang sebagian besar tergantung pada saliva. Laju aliran saliva penting dalam pembentukan adhesi dan kohesi antara basis GTL dan mukosa. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengetahui hubungan laju aliran saliva dengan performa mastikasi berdasarkan jenis kelamin pada pemakai gigi tiruan lengkap. Jenis penelitian ini adalah deskriptif analitik dengan rancangan penelitian cross sectional menggunakan sampel penelitian pemakai GTL dengan oklusi klas I sebanyak 38 orang, dengan kriteria selalu memakai GTL selama siang hari dan ketika makan serta pemakaian minimal 6 bulan pasca pemasangan di RSGM USU. Setiap pasien dilakukan pengumpulan saliva untuk mengukur laju aliran saliva dan pengunyahan Color Changeable Chewing Gum untuk menilai performa mastikasi, kemudian hasil dianalisis dengan uji Chi-Square. Pada hasil penelitian ini laju aliran saliva memiliki hubungan signifikan dengan performa mastikasi pada laki-laki, namun tidak pada perempuan. Laju aliran saliva dapat dijadikan pertimbangan penilaian performa mastikasi pada jenis kelamin laki-laki sehingga dapat digunakan sebagai dasar edukasi hasil evaluasi mastikasi pemakai gigi tiruan lengkap.
