Teachers’ moment-by-moment interactions with children are powerful determinants of children’s learning outcomes and development. Successful guidance involves teachers’ intentionality, yet one’s intent to teach may be hard to discern. Teachers using indirect, non-observable approaches are prone to be misunderstood as not actively guiding children’s learning. Therefore, the present study revisited the conceptualization of Intentional Teaching, using the Mimamoru Approach within the Japan early childhood education context as an exemplar. We investigated how Japanese educators defined the Mimamoru Approach and how it meaningfully reflected their professionalism. Three early childhood teachers participated in a focus group interview and shared their reactions towards a short video about an incident in a preschool classroom. Their narratives explicated the core values and processes of the Mimamoru Approach: illustrating the non-intervening approach as indicative of trusting and respecting children’s independence and initiative. Implications of this study suggested the subtle Mimamoru Approach and the observable US practices in Intentional Teaching should not be viewed as dichotomous, but as examples on a spectrum that considers teachers’ professionalism within cultural contexts. Key words: Intentional Teaching; Japanese early childhood teachers; cross-cultural comparison; US early childhood teachers --- Trenutačne i kontinuirane interakcije učitelja s djecom moćne su odrednice ishoda učenja i razvoja djece. Uspješno vodstvo uključuje namjeru učitelja, a namjeru pojedinca da poučava ipak je nekada teško razlučiti. Učitelje koji koriste indirektne, neprimjetne pristupe skloni smo krivo razumjeti kao one koji dječje učenje ne usmjeravaju aktivno. Stoga ovo istraživanje revidira konceptualizaciju namjernoga poučavanja, navodeći kao primjer mimamoru pristup unutar konteksta japanskoga ranog obrazovanja. Istražili smo kako japanski edukatori definiraju mimamoru pristup i kako on uvelike odražava njihov profesionalizam. Tri učitelja ranoga obrazovanja činila su fokus-grupu unutar koje su sudjelovali u intervjuu u kojemu su podijelili svoje reakcije na kratki video o događaju u predškolskoj učionici. Njihovi narativi objasnili su temeljne vrijednosti i procese mimamoru pristupa: neuplitanje kao pokazatelj povjerenja i poštivanja dječje neovisnosti i inicijative. Implikacije ove studije sugeriraju da suptilni mimamoru pristup, kao i vidljive prakse namjernoga poučavanja u SAD-u, ne treba promatrati kao dihotomne, već kako primjere profesionalizma učitelja na istom spektru, ali unutar različitih kulturoloških konteksta.Ključne riječi: japanski učitelji u ranom odgoju; međukulturalne usporedbe; namjerno poučavanje; predškolski učitelji u SAD-u
Lifelong Learning and Older People in the Context of ICT / Cjeloživotno učenje i osobe starije životne dobi u kontekstu IKT-a
Authors: Možanić Renata , Bukvić Zlatko
Published: August 2023

Global aging of the population occupies the attention of numerous professions, as it is the key reason for the increased share of old people. Demographic data also indicate a trend of further growth. Existing and upcoming generations of elders are influenced by numerous changes that have immediate involvement in the way and the quality of their life. These changes, associated with biological and psychological factors, occur in the context of the existing and changing attitude of society towards age and aging. Since many changes are not directly influenced by societal will, they cannot be resisted or stopped. However, society can adapt to them and take its stand towards these changes. Upcoming elders are expected to change the perspective of a traditionally vulnerable and dependent group by using all scientific, professional and technological advances, into the perspective of active societal participants who change and enrich the society in which they live. The potential for adaptation, active and successful aging rests on lifelong learning opportunities. Modern technologies, especially the use of ICT, combined with the needs and motivation of the elderly, allow for adjusting the form, way, time and place of learning. Lifelong learning is correlated with the assessment of the subjective well-being of the elderly and with the general quality of life and aging. Key words: active aging, lifelong learning, ICT, quality of life --- Starenje populacije na globalnoj razini zaokuplja pažnju brojnih profesija, a ključni je razlog povećanje udjela starih osoba. Demografski podatci ukazuju na trend daljnjega rasta. Postojeće i nadolazeće generacije starih pod utjecajem su brojnih promjena koje imaju neposredni utjecaj na način i kvalitetu njihova života. Ove su promjene povezane s biološkim i psihološkim čimbenicima događaju u kontekstu postojećega i promjenjivoga odnosa društva prema starosti i starenju. Mnogim se promjenama ljudi ne mogu oduprijeti ili ih zaustaviti jer nisu pod utjecajem njihove volje, ali im se mogu prilagoditi i prema tim promjenama zauzeti stajalište. Od nadolazećih starih očekuje se da perspektivu tradicionalno ranjive i ovisne skupine, koristeći sva znanstvena, stručna i tehnološka dostignuća, promijene u perspektivu aktivnih sudionika koji društvo u kojemu žive mijenjaju i obogaćuju. Potencijal za prilagodbu, aktivno i uspješno starenje počiva na mogućnostima cjeloživotnoga učenja. Suvremenim su tehnologijama, a posebno upotrebom IKT-a, u kombinaciji s potrebama i motivacijom starih moguće prilagodbe u odnosu na oblik, način, vrijeme i mjesto učenja. Cjeloživotno se učenje dovodi u korelacije s procjenom subjektivne dobrobiti starih i općenito s kvalitetom života i starenja.Ključne riječi: aktivno starenje; cjeloživotno učenje; ICT, kvaliteta života
What Is and What Is Not Mathematical Modelling in Primary School: Opinions of Slovenian and Croatian Primary School Teachers / Što jest, a što nije matematičko modeliranje u razrednoj nastavi: mišljenja slovenskih i hrvatskih učitelja razredne nastave
Authors: Sabo Junger Mateja , Lipovec Alenka
Published: August 2023

Every day we encounter various obstacles and tasks that we solve with the help of mathematics, consciously or unconsciously. Mathematical modelling in teaching is an important interactive process in which students are introduced to problems from the real world and their environment. All education is slowly striving for students' better education on problem-solving, including mathematical modelling, but this is not yet the practice in the lower grades of elementary schools. Our research describes what mathematical modelling actually is in primary school and its advantages and difficulties, all from the point of view of the primary school teachers themselves. The research was conducted on 1000 primary school teachers from Croatia and Slovenia. The study results show almost no differences according to the originating country even though we expected some since Slovenia had previously introduced mathematical modelling into its curricula. Results also indicate that teachers are fairly uneducated on the topic of mathematical modelling, and the difficulties that could arise from its introduction into the classroom. It can also be reported that teachers are eager and ready for education on a given topic, and in the vast majority show interest in additional much-needed education.Key words: cross-country comparison; mathematical models; mathematics; teacher education; primary school---Svakodnevno se susrećemo s raznim preprekama i zadatcima koje svjesno ili nesvjesno rješavamo uz pomoć matematike.

Čitavo obrazovanje polako teži boljem obrazovanju učenika o temi rješavanja problema, uključujući matematičko modeliranje, ali to još nije praksa u nižim razredima osnovnih škola. Naše istraživanje opisuje što je zapravo matematičko modeliranje u osnovnoj školi te njegove prednosti i poteškoće, sa stajališta učitelja razredne nastave. Istraživanje je provedeno na 1000 učitelja razredne nastave iz Hrvatske i Slovenije. Rezultati istraživanja ne pokazuju gotovo nikakve razlike prema zemlji podrijetla, iako smo ih očekivali budući da je Slovenija prethodno uvela matematičko modeliranje u svoje kurikule. Rezultati također ukazuju na to da su učitelji prilično neobrazovani po pitanju matematičkoga modeliranja i poteškoća koje bi mogle nastati njegovim uvođenjem u učionice. Također se može izvijestiti da su učitelji željni i spremni za obrazovanje o navedenoj temi te u  većini pokazuju interes za dodatno, prijeko potrebno, obrazovanje o matematičkom modeliranju.Ključne riječi: matematika; matematički modeli; međudržavna usporedba;obrazovanje učitelja; osnovna škola
Supporting Children and Youth in Coping with Loss at School / Podrška djeci i mladima u suočavanju s gubitcima u školskom kontekstu
Authors: Veronika Doris , Arambašić Lidija
Published: August 2023

AbstractThe aim of this study was to examine the communication of loss and grief in Croatia's primary schools. The study was conducted on a sample of 213 teachers and school counselors who filled out the survey "Loss and grief in school communities". The results show that 96.7% of surveyees have encountered a student who has experienced some kind of loss. Only 7.6% stated that there was a procedure for the school staff to follow when handling a student coping with loss. Most of the surveyees (68.3%) somewhat or completely agree that they would be willing to participate in education about teaching students about death and other losses. While handling a student coping with loss, most teachers react by reducing the severity of the loss, and most school counselors react by allowing the expression of thoughts and feelings. Results indicate that education about children and youth grief for teachers and school counselors would be useful so that they can provide more efficient and professional support.Keywords: grief and bereavement in child and youth; primary school; school staff perception; support in the bereavement process. ---SažetakCilj je istraživanja ispitati stanje vezano uz komunikaciju o gubitcima i tugovanju djece i mladih u školskom kontekstu u Hrvatskoj.

Pri kontaktu s učenicima koji se suočavaju s gubitkom većina učitelja reagira umanjivanjem težine gubitka, a većina stručnih suradnika dopuštanjem izražavanja misli i osjećaja. Rezultati upućuju na zaključak da bi prosvjetnim djelatnicima bilo korisno osigurati edukaciju o gubitcima i tugovanju djece i mladih kako bi mogli djelotvornije i stručnije pružiti podršku.Ključne riječi: osnovna škola; percepcija odgojno-obrazovnih djelatnika; pružanje podrške u procesu tugovanja; tugovanje djece i mladih

AbstractMusical preferences serve adolescents as an indicator of social identity and contribute to a sense of belonging to a particular peer group, which is of great importance at that age. Within the framework of this paper, research was conducted with the aim of determining the differences in musical preferences and culture of listening to music between two groups of students; in final grades of primary general education schools and music schools. The online survey, which took place in 2020 and 2021, included 200 students in the final grades of primary general education and music schools from five Croatian counties. The results of the research showed the following: music school students prefer art and pop music and general school students prefer rock and turbo-folk music; the vast majority of students listen to music passively and daily; one-third of music school students and the vast majority of general school students do not attend classical music concerts, while they go to popular music concerts in equal proportions; almost all students stated that the popularity of a song does not affect their musical preferences. Key words: adolescents, musical taste, music teaching, type of music. --- Sažetak Glazbene preferencije adolescentima služe kao pokazatelj društvenoga identiteta i pridonose osjećaju pripadnosti određenoj vršnjačkoj skupini, što je u toj dobi od velike važnosti. U okviru ovoga rada provedeno je istraživanje čiji cilj je bio utvrditi razlike u glazbenim preferencijama i kulturi slušanja glazbe između dviju skupina učenika. Online anketiranjem koje se odvijalo tijekom 2020. i 2021. godine obuhvaćeno je 200 učenika završnih razreda osnovnih općeobrazovnih i glazbenih škola iz pet hrvatskih županija. Rezultati istraživanja pokazali su sljedeće: učenici glazbene škole u većoj mjeri preferiraju umjetničku i pop glazbu, a učenici općeobrazovne škole rock i turbofolk glazbu; većina učenika svakodnevno pasivno sluša glazbu; trećina učenika glazbene škole i većina učenika općeobrazovne škole ne posjećuje koncerte umjetničke glazbe, dok na koncerte popularne glazbe odlaze u podjednakom omjeru. Gotovo svi su se učenici izjasnili kako popularnost neke skladbe ne utječe na njihove glazbene preferencije. Ključne riječi: adolescenti, glazbeni ukus, nastava glazbe, vrsta glazbe.
Shaping Learner Contributions via a Combination of Different Resources: Joint Use of ‘Okay’ and Type-specific Questions/Oblikovanje učeničkih odgovora kombinacijom različitih izvora: zajednička upotreba riječi okay i specifičnih pitanja

AbstractThis study aims to investigate the interactional organization of English teachers’ acknowledgment followed by type-specific questions. Shaping learners’ contributions via acknowledgment and type-specific questions is argued to be a part of Classroom Interactional Competence as the 5th skill in language teaching. Hence, this two-step move is studied to achieve a broader understanding of teachers’ interactional repertoire. This study has a qualitative design utilizing Conversation Analysis. Eighteen hours of classroom data from Newcastle University Corpus of Academic Spoken English make up the data. The findings suggest that teachers’ acknowledgment followed by type-specific questions is an indicator of Classroom Interactional Competence, and it is highly dependent upon the task goal (i.e., a pedagogic repair). Contrary to the previous studies, the joint use of acknowledgment is found to shape students’ previous turns by foregrounding achievement rather than closing a topic or indicating a transition. Then, this joint use allows teachers to acknowledge or approve a learner’s utterance on one level while carrying out repair work on another level enabling them to operate on different levels in the complex realm of the classroom.---SažetakCilj je ovoga istraživanja proučiti interakcijsku organizaciju potvrde odgovora koju nastavnici engleskoga jezika daju učenicima, a iza koje slijede specifična pitanja. Oblikovanje učeničkih odgovora pomoću potvrde i specifičnih pitanja smatra se dijelom interakcijske kompetencije u razredu i petom vještinom u poučavanju engleskoga jezika. Stoga je ova dvokomponentna taktika analizirana kako bi se došlo do boljega razumijevanja interakcijskoga repertoara nastavnika. U ovome istraživanju primijenjen je kvalitativni nacrt s primjenom konverzacijske analize. Podatke koji su proučavani sačinjava osamnaest sati primjera iz nastave iz Korpusa akademskoga govornog engleskog jezika Sveučilišta u Newcastleu. Rezultati upućuju na činjenicu da je način na koji nastavnici potvrđuju odgovore učenika i postavljaju im specifična pitanja pokazatelj interakcijske kompetencije u razredu te da on uvelike ovisi o cilju zadatka (tj. pedagoškom ispravku). Za razliku od ranije provedenih istraživanja, utvrđeno je da kombinirana potvrda oblikuje prethodne odgovore učenika tako što u prvi plan stavlja njihova postignuća, a ne zatvara temu niti naznačava prelazak na drugu temu. Takva kombinirana potvrda daje nastavnicima priliku da potvrde ili odobre ono što je učenik rekao na jednoj razini, dok na drugoj razini provode ispravak istoga. To im omogućava rad na različitim razinama u složenom razrednom okružju.
Nonconforming gender expression and associated problematic smartphone and internet use among Chinese adolescents
Authors: Zheng Xinyu , Yang Yuwei , Jiang Weiqing , He Yitong , Huang Cuihong , Hua Yilin , Lu Ciyong , Guo Lan
Published: August 2023

Background and aims

Gender nonconformity (GNC), which refers to an individual's expression of gender that does not align with the socially prescribed norms for their biological sex, may be associated with adverse behavioral problems, such as problematic smartphone use (PSU) and problematic internet use (PIU). This study examined the associations between GNC and PSU and GNC and PIU among Chinese adolescents.

Methods

This cross-sectional study utilized data from the 2021 School-based Chinese Adolescents Health Survey, recruiting 23,054 eligible adolescents aged 11 to 21, with an average age of 14.9 (SD: 1.7) years from 504 classes in 84 public high schools across 7 cities in China. Gender nonconformity, PSU/PIU, and demographics were measured. Mixed-effect linear regression models were performed.

Results

Among the participants (51.0% male), 5.3% reported high GNC and 26.9% reported moderate GNC. After adjusting for covariates, high GNC was significantly and positively associated with PSU (Β = 1.11, 95% CI = 0.49–1.72) and PIU severity (Β = 2.16, 95% CI = 1.40–2.93). Stratified analyses indicated that the associations between GNC and PSU differed between males and females, with a significant association observed only among male students (Β = 1.91, 95% CI = 0.97–2.86).

Discussion and conclusions

GNC is positively associated with the severity of PSU and PIU among Chinese adolescents, with male gender-nonconforming adolescents being more vulnerable to PSU. These results highlight the importance of implementing education on gender expression diversity in schools to create an inclusive school environment, which may potentially help prevent PSU and PIU among gender-nonconforming adolescents.

ABSTRACT Objective: Estimate the prevalence of anxiety and depression symptoms in parents of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) during the first wave of the Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19) pandemic, comparing them with parents of neurotypical children and with other mental disorders. Methods: Responses from 211 participants were collected from an online form about familial behavior during the pandemic, and the Portuguese version of the HADS scale (Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale). Results: Anxiety symptoms were present in 51% of the sample and depression was present in 35.1%. The prevalence of depression and anxiety symptoms was 58% and 44.4% respectively in the group of parents of children from the ASD; 50.3% e 32.2% for parents of neurotypical children; and 40% and 35% in the group of parents of children with other mental disorders. Conclusions: The prevalence of anxiety and depression in parents during the pandemic was greater than that of before the pandemic period. The prevalence of anxiety symptoms, as well as the mean scores of anxiety and depression symptoms, were significantly higher for the group of parents of children with the ASD. The results point to the need for additional care for parents and caregivers of children with ASD, since the social isolation adopted as a measure to contain the pandemic seemed to pose as a risk factor for negative psychological effects especially in this group.

RESUMO As variedades locais de cacau predominantes na Região de Mata Atlântica na Bahia, Brasil, vêm sendo multiplicadas pelos agricultores a partir de mudas produzidas com sementes das plantas mais produtivas. No entanto, essas plantas não têm sido avaliadas quanto à resistência à Murcha de Ceratocystis. Desta forma, nesta pesquisa, os níveis de resistência de diferentes genótipos de variedades locais de cacaueiro foram avaliados, visando à sua utilização no melhoramento para resistência a essa doença. Discos foliares de 119 acessos de cacaueiro, localmente denominados de variedade Comum (49 acessos), Maranhão (34) e Pará (36), foram inoculadas com Ceratocystis cacaofunesta. Com base no número médio de peritécios formados nesses discos, foram definidos diferentes grupos genéticos de cacau dentre os genótipos testados por meio do teste de Scott-Knott. As três variedades apresentaram a maioria dos genótipos classificados juntamente com a variedade controle de resistência (‘Jaca’), sendo que menos de um terço dos genótipos foram classificados junto com o controle suscetível (CCN51). Conclui-se que há variabilidade para resistência à Murcha de Ceratocystis nas variedades locais de cacau, sendo os genótipos resistentes úteis ao melhoramento visando resistência a essa doença.

RESUMO O trabalho teve por objetivo avaliar o efeito de sanitizantes sobre as características físico-químicas, qualidade sanitária de frutos da goiabeira ‘Paluma’ durante o armazenamento e controle in vitro de Colletotrichum sp. As goiabas ‘Paluma’ foram tratadas com os sanitizantes ácido acético, ácido ascórbico, hipoclorito de sódio, ácido paracético, peróxido de hidrogênio e fungicida tiabendazol e controle (água destilada). Foram avaliadas a perda de massa fresca, firmeza, pH, acidez titulável (AT), sólidos solúveis (SS), relação SS/AT, qualidade sanitária e controle in vitro de Colletotrichum sp. O delineamento foi inteiramente casualizado, em esquema de parcelas subdivididas no tempo, sendo sete tratamentos e cinco períodos (três dias), com quatro repetições de três frutos cada. Os sanitizantes desempenharam papel efetivo no controle da perda de massa e firmeza dos frutos armazenados. O pH dos frutos foi influenciado pelo peróxido de hidrogênio (6º dia), ácido acético e hipoclorito de sódio (15º dia). Ácidos acético e paracético reduziram a perda de ácido ascórbico dos frutos, indicando que os sanitizantes podem ser uma alternativa para aumentar a vida útil dos frutos. No controle sanitário, o ácido acético e o fungicida tiabendazol inibiram o crescimento de Colletotrichum sp. Os ácidos acético e paracético e o tiabendazol, inibiram totalmente o crescimento de ambos isolados do Colletotrichum sp.
Interactions between temperature and wheat head wetting duration on fusarium head blight intensity
Authors: Reis Erlei Melo , Zoldan Sandra Maria , Zanata Mateus
Published: August 2023

ABSTRACT In experiments conducted in growth chambers with the susceptible wheat cultivar BR 23, interactions between five temperatures (10, 15, 20, 25 and 30°C) and eleven wetting periods were assessed for fusarium head blight (FHB) intensity. Each temperature consisted of one experiment and the wetting hours corresponded to the treatments. The disease occurred even at 10ºC, the minimum tested temperature, and the maximum incidence was at 25oC, both after 50h wetting. Variations in wheat FHB intensity with temperature were explained by the Beta generalized model, and spike wetting duration by the Gompertz model. Disease intensity was modeled according to temperature and wetness duration. The resulting equation represents a description of the response of FHB spikelet incidence to the combined effects of temperature and wetness duration. Since the infection requires a long wetness period, its origin may not be dew but rain, which suggests fungicide application before the occurrence of predicted rain during the wheat predisposition period.

This study aimed to characterize micronutrient supplements use among Brazilian children 6-59 months of age included in the Brazilian National Survey on Child Nutrition (ENANI-2019; n = 12,598). Micronutrient supplements use at the time of the interview and the 6 months prior to it was evaluated using a structured questionnaire. The following indicators were included: micronutrient supplement use; supplements containing a single micronutrient; supplements of the Brazilian National Iron Supplementation Program (PNSF); multivitamin supplements with or without minerals; multivitamin supplements with minerals; multivitamin supplements without minerals. The estimates and their respective 95% confidence intervals (95%CI) were calculated for Brazil and according to macroregion, educational level of the mother or caregiver, and type of health care service used, considering the sampling plan, weights, and calibration. In Brazil, the prevalence of micronutrient supplements use was 54.2% (95%CI: 50.5; 57.8), with the highest prevalence in the North Region (80.2%; 95%CI: 74.9; 85.6) and among children 6-23 months of age (69.5%; 95%CI: 65.7; 73.3). The prevalence of the use of supplements containing exclusively iron and exclusively vitamin A in Brazil was 14.6% (95%CI: 13.1; 16.1) and 23.3% (95%CI: 19.4; 27.1), respectively. The prevalence of the use of multivitamin with or without minerals in Brazilian children 6-59 months of age was 24.3% (95%CI: 21.4; 27.2). These results may help to understand the practice of supplements use among Brazilian children and support the proposal of national public policies for the prevention and control of micronutrient deficiencies.

This study compared the distribution of stunting and height-for-age (HAZ) Z-scores among age groups in data from the Brazilian National Survey on Demography and Health of Women and Children (PNDS 2006) and the Brazilian National Survey on Child Nutrition (ENANI-2019). The final sample comprised 4,408 and 14,553 children < 59 months of age in the PNDS 2006 and ENANI-2019, respectively. Children with HAZ scores < -2 according to the World Health Organization (WHO) growth standard were classified as stunted. Prevalence, 95% confidence intervals (95%CI), means, and standard deviations were estimated for Brazil and according to age. The distribution of HAZ scores at each age (in months) was estimated using the svysmooth function of the R survey package. Analyses considered the complex sampling design of the studies. Statistical differences were determined by analyzing the 95%CI of the overlap of point estimates. From 2006 to 2019, the prevalence of stunting for children < 12 months of age increased from 4.7% to 9%. As expected, the smoothed curves showed a higher mean HAZ score for children < 24 months of age in 2006 than in 2019 with no overlap of 95%CI among children aged 6-12 months. For children ≥ 24 months of age, we observed a higher mean HAZ score in 2019. Although the prevalence of stunting among children < 59 months of age was similar between 2006 and 2019, mean HAZ scores among children ≥ 24 months of age increased, whereas the mean HAZ score among children < 24 months of age decreased. Considering the deterioration in living conditions and the potential impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, we expect a greater prevalence of stunting in Brazil in the near future.

RESUMO A pesquisa apresentada teve como objetivo investigar os usos do conceito de desmentido (Verleugnung) nas produções científicas. Realizou-se revisão integrativa de literatura nas bases Scielo, Biblioteca Virtual de Saúde e Web of Science, nos idiomas português, inglês e espanhol, no formato de artigos científicos, analisando-se 39 publicações. Verificam-se extrapolações do conceito enquanto circunscrito à clínica das perversões, com o predomínio de uma análise da Verleugnung em sua relação indissociável com a cultura, tendência geral dos artigos. Observou-se três formas predominantes de seu uso na literatura: 1) em diálogo com a função paterna; 2) em diálogo com Ferenczi e sua teoria do trauma; 3) em diálogo com o fetichismo. Quanto às lacunas, há carência de propostas consistentes de intervenção no plano clínico e político, bem como a escassez de diálogo entre certas linhas teóricas.

Published: August 2023

Abstract The intensity of affect refers to the strength with which individuals experience their emotions. This study aimed to adapt and seek evidence of validity for the version of the Short Affect Intensity Scale (SAIS) for the Brazilian context. After translation procedures, the translated version of the SAIS was applied, along with instruments to measure personality and subjective well-being in 1,180 Brazilians. The results revealed the adequacy of the three-factor structure for the instrument: Positive Intensity, Negative Intensity, and Serenity. Correlations with other variables were verified as theoretically expected. For example, positive correlations were found between Positive Intensity and Extraversion and Positive Affect; Negative Intensity and Neuroticism, and Negative Affect. The instrument proved to be adequate for the Brazilian context.

Abstract Psychological aggression is the most common manifestation of intimate partner violence. Literature demonstrates that attachment and jealousy can predict intimate partner violence. The aim of this study was to test a theoretical model in which jealousy is a mediator between attachment and psychological aggression. This is a quantitative study, with cross-sectional and explanatory design. A sample of 600 people, aged between 18 and 65 years old, residing in 13 Brazilian states, was investigated. A Sociodemographic data questionnaire, Psychological Aggression Sub-scales (CTS2), Questionnaire on the Affective Relationships (QAR), Interpersonal Jealousy Scale (IJC) and Adult Attachment Scale (AAS 2) were used. Structural equation modeling indicated that jealousy functioned as a mediator between attachment and psychological aggressions, alerting to the possibility of prevention in conjugality through early interventions.

ABSTRACT: One of the main issues related to the management of forage legumes is the fact that these plants can be found in a broad diversity of morphology, structures and growth habits. This study evaluated the structural and productive characteristics of forage legumes with different growth habits [Clitoria ternatea L.; Desmanthus pernambucanus (L.) Thellung; and Stylosanthes spp. cv. Campo Grande], in response to two harvesting frequencies (60 and 90 days). The experimental design was completely randomized in blocks, with a split-plot scheme and four replications (n=4). The type of forage legume influenced the number of secondary branches, the number of leaves per branch, leaf area index (LAI), light interception (LI), percentage of leaves and stems (%), leaf/stem ratio, and pod production (P<0.05). D. pernambucanus had the lowest LI and LAI (P < 0.05). Stylosanthes spp. cv. Campo Grande and C. ternatea showed a greater leaf percentage and leaf/stem ratio (P < 0.05). There was an effect of the harvesting frequency on the percentage of stems, leaves, pod production, and total production (P < 0.05). Longer harvesting frequencies affected differently these legumes, especially the accumulation of stems in D. pernambucanus, which displayed an intense increase after 60 days of growth. The choice of the best harvesting frequency for these legumes evaluated should consider the proposal of the usage. In our study, it was shown that harvesting at 60 days did not affect the total forage mass accumulated, which possibly is the most advantageous choice.

Published: August 2023

ABSTRACT: This study evaluated the probability of pregnancy and associated factors for two times artificial inseminations (AI), 8 or 10 hours after automated activity monitoring (AAM) alarm on the first postpartum AI of 1,054 Holstein dairy cows. The estrus was synchronized by prostaglandin or estradiol-progesterone program. Stepwise logistic regression was performed to analyze the probability of pregnancy, and associated factors (activity, estrus intensity, parity, peripartum health, retained placenta, postpartum vaginal discharge, and season). The highest pregnancy rates were obtained with multiparous animals, inseminated ten hours after the AAM alarm, in the fall or winter season, with a high activity peak and estrus intensity (P < 0.05). Peripartum diseases, retained placenta, and postpartum vaginal discharge negatively influenced the pregnancy rate, regardless of parity. Thus, the optimization of AAM models by including on-farm measures like parity, peripartum health history, and environmental conditions may favor the correct identification of estrus and improve the AAM alarm regarding the ideal moment for AI, increasing the reproductive performance in dairy cows.

ABSTRACT: Neurofibromas are neoplasms derived from nerve bundles and are frequent in humans but not common in animals. This report described the macroscopic, histologic, and immunohistochemistry findings of an orbitofacial neurofibroma in a sow. The sow presented left eyelids with marked expansion, associated with severe ectropion and reddening of both conjunctival mucosae. The mass on the cutting surface was homogeneous, with a light tan, and shiny, measuring 9.0 x 7.0 x 7.0 cm in width, compressing the eyeball. Microscopically, there was paucicellular neoplastic proliferation of elongated cells amid the accentuated myxoid matrix. There were multifocal areas where well-differentiated nervous fascicles and skeletal musculature were seen. Neoplastic cells were immunostained positive for GFAP, neurofilament, S-100, Sox-10, and vimentin. Cytokeratin showed immunolabeling around primitive nerve bundles and desmin around neoformed vessels and muscle bundles within the tumor. Orbitopalpebral and orbitofacial neurofibroma, despite being common in humans, have not been described in domestic pigs and should be considered as a differential diagnosis in eyelid tumors in pigs.
De Gramáticas y Emergencias. Algunas cuestiones sobre etnografías situadas bajo condiciones de seguridad sanitaria
Authors: Epele María E.
Published: August 2023

Resumen Partiendo de las perspectivas de Donna Haraway sobre los conocimientos situados y sus modos de apropiación en el cono sur, el objetivo de este trabajo consiste en examinar qué involucra producir conocimientos situados a través de etnografías antropológicas como críticas del presente y en geografías del sur. Específicamente, este artículo problematiza tres condiciones mínimas para situar la producción de saberes etnográficos a través de prácticas enunciativas, tecnológicamente mediadas y relativas a sufrimientos, aflicciones y salud, bajo el régimen de seguridad sanitaria durante la pandemia del Sars-Covid-2 en la región de Buenos Aires: a) las etnografías tecnológicamente mediadas; b) en zonas de emergencia y catástrofes; c) en contextos atravesados por sanciones morales y criminalización generalizada. Finalmente, la producción de los saberes situados exige modificar nuestras prácticas críticas como ejercicio académico, desde la reflexividad hacia la difracción, revolviendo y transformando sus fronteras, lógicas y geografías.
Fotografias guardadas, corpos marcados, trabalho do tempo: raça e gênero na produção da casa e da cidade
Authors: Gutterres Anelise dos Santos
Published: August 2023

Resumo Neste artigo reflito sobre as ambivalências e as acomodações descritas por Ruth em seu cotidiano na Vila Gaúcha, em Porto Alegre, a partir de um percurso por fotografias familiares que entrelaçam narrativas sobre casa, maternidade, violência, vida e morte. Realizo este percurso em diálogo com os escritos de Carolina de Jesus (2007) e Conceição Evaristo (2016 e 2018), seguindo o caminho sugerido por Han e Das (2016) de olhar para as formas de vida enquanto linguagem de fabricação de mundos. Busco, portanto, descrever táticas de mediação e elaboração de formas de habitar o mundo e de produzir a casa entre eventos modelados por questões históricas atravessadas pela raça e pelo gênero - no caso, a produção da cidade, as dinâmicas impostas entre fixação e circulação na fabricação de corpos e lugares removíveis.
Fronteiras do nós: um caminho aberto para a escrita
Authors: Pierobon Camila
Published: August 2023

Resumo Este texto reflete sobre a escrita de Veena Das em Textures of the Ordinary. Argumenta que, no processo de descrição das formas de vida e de elaboração de conceitos, a autora mantém os traços da vida de seus interlocutores em seus escritos quanto aos distintos tons e subtons das histórias que ela ouviu e viveu. Defende que os capítulos do livro nos abrem para a possibilidade de imaginar formas de escrita etnográfica em que os tons e os subtons presentes na vida diária apareçam como constitutivos da linguagem e dos processos de transmissão de experiência.
Textura da lei, política do ordinário e outras rotas para conhecer o Estado
Authors: Ferreira Letícia Carvalho de Mesquita
Published: August 2023

Resumo O estudo antropológico do Estado, com forte tradição etnográfica no Brasil, é uma das frentes de reflexão responsáveis pela ampla difusão da obra de Veena Das no país. Partindo desta constatação, o texto retoma duas personagens presentes em Textures of the Ordinary e argumenta que, da forma como são apresentadas, suas histórias condensam algumas das questões mais centrais da contribuição já consolidada de Das para o estudo das práticas e dos processos de Estado. Não obstante, argumenta também que as histórias dessas mesmas personagens permitem à autora ampliar sua contribuição, o que se dá em dois registros: na tomada da “textura da lei” e da “política do ordinário” como categorias analíticas especialmente produtivas diante do caráter ambivalente do Estado; e nas pistas e sugestões de natureza teórico-metodológica oferecidas ao leitor.

Churning of human resources: A proposal for a theoretical-methodological model
Authors: Pirrolas Olga Alexandra Chinita , Correia Pedro Miguel Alves Ribeiro
Published: August 2023

Abstract Purpose: This article presents the results of qualitative research performed through the semi-structured interviews to elaborate a theoretical-methodological human resources churning model that will allow to statistically describe the relations of interdependence between the selected variables, to analyze their impact, and to test hypotheses in future studies. Originality/value: The relevance of this study lies in the opportunity to contribute to the development of such an intricate, unexplored topic, with scarcely available literature and empirical studies, providing the elaboration of an interview script as an instrument for data collection that facilitates future studies. Churning of human resources (excess of turnover) is solely related to the replacement of workers who voluntarily choose to leave organizations (Burgess et al., 2000). Design/methodology/approach: This study follows a qualitative approach. The process of data collection consisted of developing a semi-structured interview guide to gather information through the performance of 20 interviews. Findings: Through the analysis of the results, it was possible to ascertain that the more favorable churning dimensions are, the greater the retention of workers in organizations. Thus, the elaboration and application of strategic measures by organizations become relevant for the retention of the most experienced and qualified workers in order to avoid high costs with new hiring, which are a direct result of such replacements (churning).

Abstract Objectives: to determine and characterize the prevalence of congenital malformations among live births in Rondônia, from 2015 to 2019. Methods: an ecological study was conducted using publicly available data at Sistema de Informações sobre Nascidos Vivos collected in January 2021. The prevalence of congenital malformation and possible associations were calculated. The strength of the association between variables was measured using the odds ratio. Variables that were statistically significant at the 5% level were selected for adjusted odds ratio calculation using logistic regression models. The R programming language was used for all analyses and interactions with the database. A 95% confidence interval was considered. Results: a total of 1,110 records were analyzed. The overall prevalence of congenital malformation was 8.36, with higher rates observed among mothers over 35 years, those with low educational levels, unmarried status, and preterm birth. Infants with low birth weight and low Apgar scores also had higher prevalence rates of congenital malformations. Conclusion: the prevalence of congenital malformations in the state was similar to the national average, but regional disparities were observed and warrant further investigation.

ABSTRACT In irrigated production systems, the common bean grain yield must reach high levels to maintain economic viability. In this context, management, like the selection of the most adapted cultivars, may be effective in obtaining high yields. Through a three-year experiment, it was aimed to select the common bean cultivars with the highest agronomic and technological performance in an irrigated production system and to determine the yield component that most interfered with common bean yield. The treatments consisted of eight common bean cultivars with indeterminate growth habit and from the pinto bean variety (carioca): ANFc 9, BRS Estilo, BRSMG Madrepérola, Pérola, IAC Alvorada, IAC Milênio, TAA Bola Cheia, and TAA Dama. IAC Milênio and IAC Alvorada had the highest agronomic performance for irrigated production systems, with grain yields up to 17% higher than other cultivars. The cultivars show little variation in the grain technological quality, meeting the culinary and nutritional qualities recommended for common bean. The ANFc 9 cultivar showed the highest crude protein content in grains (19%). The number of pods per plant is the yield component that most interferes with common bean grain yield, generating 86 kg ha-1 increments for each unitary increase. Therefore, the common bean cultivars selection in the irrigated production system is an effective management practice to increase common bean agronomic and quality performance.
