The Impact of Covid-19 Pandemic on Leadership Development: A Study of Leaders in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia
Authors: Siambi James K.
Published: February 2022

Covid-19 pandemic has influenced leadership development and possibly changed the perception of leadership learning. The closure of movements and gatherings during the pandemic effectively switched on virtual and digital alternatives to leadership development in attempts to fill the gap left by traditional approaches to leadership development. The effect of the Covid-19 pandemic on leadership ability to learn partially reflects the impact of educational technology and communication; however, it is not determined whether the impact is solely related to Covid-19 restrictions or the change of leadership development trends. The goals of this study highlight the plight of leadership development during the first year of Covid-19 pandemic which aim to inform future leadership training designs. This study uses a mixed method design, whose quantitative data focus on factual numerical details to confirm hypotheses while the qualitative data provides experiences based on concepts. The major study tool was a questionnaire, but the researcher made video calls to some participants for brief interviews. Video calls was preferred to enable the researchers to observe the respondents’ behavior when explaining the impact of covid-19 in the organizations’ leadership. The key findings postulate that most organizations were compelled to hold virtual leadership development sessions despite the ability to hold face to face small group development sessions. The instant shift to digital training exposed leaders to new possibilities in development and increased the number of training opportunities used by leaders. The significance of these findings inform future leadership development decisions on designing the leadership training and development.
Framing, Pencitraan, dan Panduan Grafis dalam Image Sekuensial pada Komik Perempuan & Komik Perempuan Indonesia Kontemporer

Published: February 2022

Komik adalah media yang menyampaikan informasi melalui sekuens visual. Media ini mendapatkan perhatian khusus karena media sekuensial yang berbasis ruang planar dan bukan berbasis waktu. Dalam membentuk sebuah cerita melalui urutan visual, terdapat aktivitas pembingkaian, pencitraan, dan sistematika panduan sekuens visual yang membentuk stuktur penuturan visual yang kompleks.Dalam perkembangan industri komik modern khususnya di Jepang, pembingkaian, pencitraan, dan sistematika keterbacaan urutan visual secara sekuens mendapatkan perhatian yang serius dengan munculnya metode perancangan yang mengarahkan dan memudahkan pembaca dalam mengikuti alur cerita yang kemudian disebut dengan graphic narrative & visual storytelling [1]. Komik Perempuan Indonesia kontemporer, yaitu komik yang ditujukan bagi pembaca remaja perempuan yang dipengaruhi genre sejenis di Jepang, memiliki pola penuturan yang unik karena kompleksitas informasi yang memasukkan unsur emosi dalam bertutur di luar kompleksitas struktur penuturan visual itu sendiri. Makalah ini bertujuan menelaah keunikan ini melalui kajian graphic narrative & visual storytelling yang pada akhirnya memperkaya keilmuan budaya visual.

Comic is one of media that emphasize its content delivery through visual sequence. It attracts many researchers because this media is a plane based media (2D) instead of most media which delivers its content in time based media. In designing a story based on visual sequence, there are framing, imaging, wayfinding acitivities in forming a complex visual storytelling especially in comics. Especially in Japan, the development of framing, imaging, and methods of designing a sequence which makes the reader easily read the story through panels in comics are well developed and shared from comic artists toward their assistants. This method is known as graphic narrative and visual storytelling and applied not only on comics but almost on all visual entertainment media and influence each other then creates cycle of media. The cycle of media surfaces simulacra and unique hypereality phenomenon. This paper tries to depict the uniqueness of simulacra of media cycle phenomenon on Ragnarok Online case study in Indonesia which will enrich the study of visual culture.

Vihara Satya Budhi merupakan salah satu peninggalan artefak budaya Cina yang memiliki bentuk arsitektur Cina . Sistem Hongshui dan konsep YinYang merupakan kunci dalam membangun tempat ibadat. Naga yang merupakan ornamen terpenting dalam klenteng memiliki kedudukan yang tinggi, bahkan posisi naga pada atap menjadi identitas bangunan Cina, karena memberikan makna bahwa bangunan tersebut merupakan bangunan penting, seperti istana dan kuil peribadatan. Kedudukan dan posisi naga pada kuil peribadatan merupakan satu hal yang menarik untuk diteliti. Penelitian ini mencoba melihat bentuk naga yang ada pada Vihara Satya Budhi, Bandung melalui telaah historis dan budaya untuk mencari dan untuk mengetahui kedudukan simbol dan makna bentuk naga yang ada pada Vihara Satya Budhi. Adanya migrasi masyarakat Cina ke Indonesia turut memberikan pengaruh dan perubahan pada visualisasi naga, namun hal ini tidak berdampak kepada bangunan klenteng yang tetap berpegang teguh pada ketentuan yang telah ditetapkan oleh leluhur bangsa Cina. Naga merupakan simbol kekuasaan karena sejak dulu sudah disamakan dengan kedudukan kaisar. Selain kekuasaaan, naga juga merupakan simbol kebaikan dan keberuntungan. Temuan penelitian ini adalah kedudukan naga pada atap bangunan klenteng merupakan simbol identitas dari bangunan peribadatan Cina. Selain pada atap posisi naga pada tiang merupakan bentuk yang sering dijumpai. Hal ini merupakan gambaran bahwa masyarakat Cina diharapkan tidak melupakan kebudayaan leluhur. Dan posisi naga pada tempat dupa juga memiliki arti bahwa naga sebagai pemberi keberuntungan kepada umat manusia patut disembah.

Nowadays, the integrations between Western principles of visual art with principles of Feng Shui in logo designs can easily be found in Indonesia. Principles of Feng Shui, often called as Feng Sui or Hong Sui, is an ancient Chinese way of thinking that emphasize in environment organization. Principles of Feng Shui's four key points are to produce a positive Qi energy, to maintain stability among Yin and Yang, to produce a productive cycle Wu Xing (Five Elements), and to represent the symbolism from Chinese culture. The purpose of this research is to establish an understanding on the relationship between Western principles of visual art and principles of Feng Shui in logo designs, like the similarities on the way of reading logo as well as the differences. Logo designs were analyzed, described, and explained using Western principles of visual art and principles of Feng Shui's four key points into three sections, which are visual elements, logo composition, and logo interpretation. This research used the qualitative method with descriptive analysis. The data were collected through several methods, such as interviews and literature reviews. The four stages of analysis procedure are description, formal analysis, interpretation, and evaluation or judgement. Upon completion, there are three findings. First, the way of reading a logo design using the Western principles of visual art is simpler and straightforward than the principles of Feng Shui. Second, several relationships among the two principles were found in visual elements, logo composition, and logo interpretation. Third, the integrations between Western principles of visual art with principles of Feng Shui in a logo design represents its ideologies as well as the 'shield' to protect the company from any harm.

Published: February 2022

Malgré le désir de la clientèle gynéco-oncologique (GO) de parler ouvertement de son expérience de santé sexuelle avec les infirmières, ces dernières souvent ne se sentent pas assez outillées pour entamer ces conversations. Peu d’interventions éducationnelles existent afin d’améliorer la communication en santé sexuelle auprès des patientes pour les infirmières œuvrant aux soins GO. Cette revue narrative vise à synthétiser les différentes interventions éducationnelles disponibles dans ce contexte. Une recherche documentaire effectuée de 2010 à 2020 dans trois bases de données a permis de cibler 11 articles. Les résultats soulignent la variété des modalités de formations infirmières et leur potentiel d’améliorer cette communication. Qu’elles soient en ligne ou en présentiel, ces formations diffèrent entre autres au niveau de la durée, du type de formateur, des stratégies d’apprentissage et des thèmes abordés. Toutefois, les résultats soulignent le manque de formation en santé sexuelle dédiée aux infirmières œuvrant aux soins GO.
“I think it is a powerful campaign and does a great job of raising awareness in young women”: Findings from Breast Cancer Awareness campaigns targeting young women in Canada
Authors: Larsen Lorna
Published: February 2022

The purpose of this multi-year study was to replicate a successful breast cancer awareness campaign pilot, targeting young women, and evaluate the campaign effectiveness on multiple Canadian post-secondary school sites. A Canadian charity, Team Shan Breast Cancer Awareness for Young Women (Team Shan), facilitated awareness campaigns on college and university campuses across Western Canada from 2010–2016. Using a pre-post design, young women (17–29 years) on 11 targeted campus sites participated in completing pre- (n = 880) or post-campaign (n = 794) evaluation questionnaires. Questions were designed to evaluate awareness campaign activities, key take home messages, and breast cancer knowledge transfer. Team Shan was successful in developing a variety of strategies to inform young women about their risk of developing breast cancer. The campaigns made a positive impact on young women as an effective public health communication initiative. Findings support health promotion strategies to reach young women, a population at risk of developing breast cancer.

RESUMO

            Verdades médicas são entendidas como saberes constituídos historicamente em suas complexidades e heterogeneidades que as constituíram. Para a biomedicina, as práticas discursivas tendem a levar efeitos em que os indivíduos se subjetivam enquanto corpos estruturados em órgãos, independente do contexto onde se processam as relações do seu viver. Trazemos uma visão que integra mente e corpo na compreensão da enfermidade, a partir de um saber médico historicamente sujeitado, a Homeopatia, sobre os processos de adoecimento e pela possibilidade de uma prática em saúde transformadora de si.
A DESCRENÇA COMO TERAPIA. O PROCEDIMENTO CÉTICO FRENTE À PERTUBAÇÃO DOGMÁTICA
Authors: Junnior Neto Francisco Alvarenga
Published: February 2022

A intenção deste artigo é apresentar o percurso realizado pelo indivíduo que se compreende como cético.  O ceticismo é visto como contrário à posição dogmática, marcada pela defesa de argumentos e teses como verdades. Apesar de assim se definir o ceticismo: como uma postura marcada pela descrença, o ceticismo não pode ser compreendido somente por isto; ou seja, pensando o indivíduo cético, ele não é visto como tal pela sua vontade de contrapor teses pelo puro gosto de realizá-lo, antes disso, a descrença e a oposição levadas a cabo pelo cético são quase que naturais, como resultados inescapáveis da sua forma de proceder. Para tanto, compreender o processo que leva alguém a se tornar um cético e se posicionar contra o dogmatismo, na primeira seção buscaremos apresentar o ceticismo filosófico. Na segunda seção, se intentará apresentar o itinerário cético por meio do qual se estabelece a sua identidade. Na última seção, buscaremos salientar quais são os pontos do dogmatismo atacados pelo cético a fim de demonstrar a sua impossibilidade enquanto uma posição filosófica.
INTRODUÇÃO AO SUBLIME EM LONGINO
Authors: Paulo Yves São
Published: February 2022

Peri Hypsous é o mais antigo tratado sobre o sublime a chegar às nossas mãos. O presente artigo revisita sua história, desde a querela envolvendo a identidade do autor, até as variantes interpretativas de sua inserção no universo da retórica. Também será interpretada a relação do termo grego Hypsos, traduzido por sublime, com a noção de Logos e as implicações filosóficas desta relação. Ao relacionar Hypsos com Logos, o tratado de Longino se posiciona divergente aos demais tratados retóricos sobre arte, abordando um sentimento natural com repercussões éticas.

El presente trabajo tiene por objeto abordar, desde las áreas de la Ética y el Derecho, el alcance de una de las biotecnologías que más impacto está generando en la literatura ante su potencial aplicación clínica. Ello obedece a las infinitas posibilidades que promete la edición de genes, y, más concretamente, su afamada herramienta CRISPR/Cas9, entre las que destaca la reparación de enfermedades graves en células germinales humanas, pudiendo evitar su eventual transmisión a los descendientes. No obstante, podría, como titula acertadamente una de las múltiples obras coordinadas y co-redactadas por nuestro maestro, el Profesor Romeo Casabona, ir “más allá de la salud”, dando lugar a reminiscencias eugenésicas, y que vendrían representadas por medio de la mejora humana. Consecuentemente, se analizará, por un lado, la aceptabilidad desde el punto de vista ético de la terapia génica frente a la mejora, en ponderación con los principios bioéticos de autonomía, beneficencia, no maleficencia y justicia; y, por otro, la afectación que para los derechos fundamentales pudiera suponer su uso indiscriminado, muy especialmente, en cuanto a la dignidad humana, igualdad e identidad, así como al patrimonio genético inalterado y las responsabilidades para con las generaciones futuras, y de los que el Profesor Romeo ha sido pionero en alertar.

O PRECARIADO COMO CATEGORIA SOCIOLÓGICA INTERPRETATIVA DA REFORMA TRABALHISTA BRASILEIRA NO CONTEXTO DA FLEXIBILIZAÇÃO CONTEMPORÂNEA DO DIREITO DO TRABALHO
Authors: Mello Gabriel de Oliveira de , Lima Abili Lázaro Castro de
Published: February 2022

A recente reforma trabalhista, implementada pelas Leis nº 13.429/2017 e 13.467/2017, tanto qualitativa quanto quantitativamente representou um marco no direito do trabalho brasileiro. Em razão de sua relevância, convém não apenas analisá-la segundo o ferramental dogmático, sendo especialmente frutífero o diálogo que se pode estabelecer com a sociologia. Nesse sentido, a adoção conceitual do que se vem chamando de precariado no estudo das classes sociais, em consonância com as especificidades latino-americanas, contribui para evidenciar uma face um tanto obscura - apesar de ambígua - desse fenômeno: embora possa contribuir para a redução da informalidade e a diminuição do desemprego, a flexibilização da legislação laboral responde a um ethos em cujo contexto está a crescente precariedade do trabalho e da vida.

Published: February 2022

Antarctica is the coldest and driest continent globally and has always been an exciting habitat to study extremophiles. The study reveals a monostromatic nitrophilic green alga Prasiola crispa (Trebouxiophyceae) growing on Adelie penguin guano at a penguin rockery, Larsemann Hills, Eastern Antarctica. This study is the first report of the barcode of this algal genus from Eastern Antarctica in general and the Larsemann Hills in particular. There are 35 species currently accepted in this genus, while four were reported from Antarctica. The present study relied on morphological diagnoses as well as the phylogenetic inference based on nuclear-encoded ITS gene and plastid-encoded tufA gene for species identification. The study generated phylogenetic reconstruction at the two selected loci for the first time for this species from Antarctica.
Micromorphological structure of maritime antarctic cryosols (King-George and Livingston Islands, West Antarctica)
Authors: Abakumov Evgeny , Lupachev Alexey , Yaneva Rositsa , Zhiyanski Miglena
Published: February 2022

Cryosols of the Antarctic maritime area are much different from the continental ones. The relatively moderate climate conditions in Maritime Antarctica and a strong interaction between the biotic and abiotic environment are drivers for more intensive soil formation processes than in the continental regions. Soil formation studies from the Maritime Antarctica are, however, rather rare. Therefore, micromorphological investigations on polar soils can contribute to more comprehensive information on soil genesis in Antarctica. In this study, we applied the micromorphological study of thin sections from soil micromonoliths to assess the intensity and trends of the pedogenic processes in selected soils from two adjacent islands of the South-Shetland archipelago: King George Island and Livingston Island. The results obtained show that regional lithology and the origin of the incoming organic matter mainly determine the micromorphological structure of the local soils. Soil matrix micromorphological properties and features (mineralogical content, weathering stage and even partly grain-size distribution) are mainly defined by pyroclastic particles due to recent and ancient volcanic eruptions. The presence of rounded grains and aggregated mineral particles is the evidence of marine origin of the sediments. Ornithogenic soils show the clear evidence of the organic plasma formation and mineral particles aggregation via the zoogenic organic substances provided by penguins which is a unique specifics of the maritime Antarctic soils.

Published: February 2022

A comprehensive study of the quantitative and qualitative parameters of soil microfungi, bacteria and algae communities in the Apatity city, located in the subarctic zone of Russia, was carried out for the first time. Urban soil samples were taken from various landuse zones (residential, recreational) and compared to arable and forest soils. In the residential zone, a decrease in the number of microfungi in the topsoil horizon to 1.1 thous. CFU/g compared to 22.7 thous. CFU/g in forest soil was revealed. In the residential zone, an increase was found in the number of saprotrophic bacteria to 7.8 million cells g-1 and oligotrophic to 10.9 million cells g-1 compared to 2.6 million cells g-1 and 1.8 million cells g-1 respectively in forest soils. In the recreational zone, the number of soil microorganisms was similar to that in the forest. A decrease in the species diversity of microfungi in the soil of the residential zone and an increase in the diversity of soil algae were revealed. Among the dominant species of fungi in urban soils, atypical species, including pathogenic ones for humans (Penicillium dierckxii, Stachybotris echinatus, Fusarium sp.), were found. In the algal community, diatoms, yellow-green algae, and cyanobacteria appeared in urban soils in comparison with forest soil. As a result of changes in the quantitative and qualitative indicators of soil microbial communities, a decrease in the enzymatic activity of soils has been noted. This may indicate a weakening of the ecosystem functions of urban soils and an increase in the degree of toxicity for living organisms and humans.

Published: February 2022

Long-term Antarctic expedition’s studies indicated harmful or positive behavioral and psychophysiological adaptive changes that arise from adversities in isolated, confined, and extreme environments. Whereas most of the published studies focused on overwintering situations, most Brazilian Antarctic Program summer expeditions consist of short-term stays. We evaluated the influence of a permanence in Antarctic short-term (13-day) summer camp on the hormonal responses and mood states in eight volunteers. Data collection was carried out at the beginning (initial measure, days 3 to 5) and the end (final measurement, days 10 to 12) of the camping. Morning and evening samples of saliva were obtained to measure the testosterone and cortisol concentrations. Morning blood drops were used to determine thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) and thyroxine (T4) concentration. The volunteers also answered a mood states questionnaire. During the short-term camp, T4 (3.92 ± 0.75 vs 2.21 ± 0.71 μg.dL-1) and T4/TSH (3.16 ± 0.97 vs 1.79 ± 0.74 AU) reduced, without concomitant changes in TSH (1.28 ± 0.17 vs 1.30 ± 0.09 μU.mL-1), and salivary cortisol increased (2,392 ± 1,153 vs 4,440 ± 1,941 pg.mL-1) resulting in greater cortisol amplitude (calculated from the difference between morning and evening measurement, 1,400 ± 1,442 vs 3,230 ± 2,046). In men, testosterone increased as well (26.2 ± 12.5 vs 67.8 ± 45.8, all differences with P<0.05). There was a moderate effect in mood states evidenced by increased anger and fatigue, and reduced vigor. At the end of the camp, the change in cortisol correlated with anger, and the final cortisol values with anger and tension. We concluded that staying in a short-term summer camp in Antarctica induced endocrine and mood state changes, indicators of stress reaction.
Methods and techniques of neuromarketing research
Authors: Lukić Darko
Published: February 2022

Advances in the development of neuromarketing research methods and techniques, over the past two decades, have enabled their application not only for scientific purposes, but also for commercial purposes of researching consumer behavior. This paper will review various methods and techniques of neuromarketing research, highlighting the advantages and disadvantages of using these, for the purpose of consumer behavior research. As a research part of the paper, combined laboratory neuromarketing research (EEG and eye tracking) was conducted, that examined implicit attitudes of consumers (attention and emotions, in real time, from second to second), whose goal was to examine how consumers react implicitly to different marketing stimuli (TV commercials for Coca Cola and Pepsi Cola brands). The research additionally examined whether there is an overlap of conscious consumer attitudes, collected by the research method through a questionnaire, with the results of the combined neuromarketing research. The research found that the tested marketing stimuli have a positive impact on the implicit positioning of tested FMCG brands. In addition, by comparative analysis of explicit and implicit consumer attitudes, it was found that there is agreement between them. Finally, the research found that neuromarketing research has the potential to improve marketing communication (tested TV commercials), and thus the positioning of FMCG brands.

This paper analyzes what may have been a mistake bypianist Thelonious Monk playing a jazz solo in 1958.Even in a Monk composition designed for patternedmayhem, a note can sound out of pattern. We reframethe question of whether the note was a mistake and askinstead about how Monk handles the problem. Amazingly,he replays the note into a new pattern that resituatesits jarring effect in retrospect. The mistake, orbetter, the mis-take, was “saved” by subsequent notes.Our analysis, supported by reflections from jazz musiciansand the philosopher John Dewey, encourages areformulation of plans, takes, and mis-takes as categoriesfor the interpretation of contingency, surprise, andrepair in all human activities. A final section suggeststhat mistakes are essential to the practical plying andplaying of knowledge into performances, particularlythose that highlight learning.
Learning, Trajectories of Participation and Social Practice
Authors: Nielsen Klaus N.
Published: February 2022

This article argues that personal meaning should be consideredimportant when addressing issues of learning.It is claimed that meaningful learning is not primarilyintra-psychological, as suggested by humanistic psychologistsand parts of cognitive psychology, but is anintegrated part of the person’s participation in varioussocial practices. Inspired by critical psychology andsituated learning, it is suggested that in order to comprehendwhat people in everyday life experience as meaningful,we have to understand the concerns subjectspursue across different contextual settings and the kindof conduct of everyday life they try to realise. A caseexample from an ongoing research project about howbaker apprentices learn their trade is outlined in order toexemplify some of the theoretical considerations. Twobaker apprentices, Peter and Charlotte, are presented toillustrate how they orientate their learning activities inthe bakeries according to their future participation in thebaking trade and in relation to the conduct of everydaylife they wish to pursue.

This paper analyzes the relationship between public andprivate domains in contemporary Danish organizationsby examining their increasing focus on the personalhealth situation of employees, and, more specifically,their body weight. This paper combines literature onidentity and management with governmentality-inspiredresearch on risk, morality and the body. The aim of thispaper is to show that overweight people are perceived as“risk identities”, i.e. problem people who automaticallycall for personal management. The author demonstratesthat besides the unintended effect of categorizing overweightemployees as problem people, this managementgoal also run counter to the declared value regardingrespect for diversity in contemporary organizations.Based on in-depth interviews with managers and recordedtalks between health consultants and overweightemployees, this paper emphasizes processes thatsubordinate employees and restrict their autonomy.
Subject subjected - Sexualised coercion, agency and the reorganisation and reformulation of life strategies
Authors: Salkvist Rikke Spjæt , Pedersen Bodil
Published: February 2022

When not acting in ways that are recognised as physicalself-defence, women are often – in psychology and inother dominant discourses – generalised as inherentlypassive during subjection to sexualised coercion (rapeand attempted rape). Likewise, in the aftermaths, their(in)actions are frequently pathologised as ‘maladaptivecoping strategies’.We present theoretically and empirically based argumentsfor an agency-oriented approach to women’sperspectives on sexualised coercion. Agency is understoodas intentional, situated and strategic. Sexualisedcoercion is not generalised as a single “traumatic”event, but conceptualised as life events. Meanings ofcoercion are embedded in social activities connectedto discourses on ‘rape’ and ‘trauma’. Thus personalmeanings of subjection are understood as developed inand through participation in trajectories across diversecontexts.Adopted in our study, this approach points to thegreat diversity of personal meanings of sexualised coercion.Moreover, it reveals intimate connections betweensituated, personal and dominant discursive meanings ofcoercion, and women’s strategies of (in)actions duringand in the aftermaths of the events.Our analysis of participants’ perspectives also indicatesan imperative need for reinterpreting conceptssuch as ‘victim’ and ‘passivity’. In a reinterpretationwomen, although subjected to sexualised coercion,emerge as subjects both during subjection and in theaftermaths. Furthermore their seemingly pathologicalbehaviour may be re-conceptualised as personally sense-making strategies of action in reflected attemptsat (re)formulating and (re)organising their lifestrategies.
An Activity Theory Approach to surfacing the pedagogical object in a primary school mathematics classroom
Authors: Hardman Joanne
Published: February 2022

This paper develops a methodology for using Activity Theory (AT) to investigate pedagogical practices in primary school mathematics classrooms by selecting object-oriented pedagogical activity as the unit of analysis. While an understanding of object-oriented activity is central to Activity Theory (AT), the notion of object is a frequently debated and often misunderstood one. The conceptual confusion surrounding the object arises both from difficulties related to translating the original Russian conceptualisation of object-oriented activity into English as well as from the different interpretations of the object currently in use within two contemporary approaches in activity theory. This paper seeks to clarify understandings of the object by exploring notions of object oriented activity. To this end, the paper traces the historical development of the object through Leontiev (1978; 1981) and Engeström’s (1987; 1999) expansion of Vygotsky’s original triadic understanding of object oriented activity. Drawing on Basil Bernstein’s (1996) notion of evaluative criteria as those rules that transmit the criteria for the production of a legitimate text, the paper goes on to elaborate a methodology for using AT to analyse observational data by developing the notion of “evaluative episodes” as pedagogical moments in which the pedagogical object is made visible. Findings indicate that an evaluative episode can serve as an analytical space in which the dynamism of an activity system is momentarily frozen, enabling one to model human activity in the system under investigation and, hence, in this study, to understand pedagogy in context.

The article shows how merit has been used to highlight pensioners as a special population in the claims-making activities of the senior rights movement in Sweden, as well as in debates about issues concerning old age. Simply put, merit refers to the claim that pensioners have built the society and they are entitled to special treatment – for instance welfare, reverence – for this reason. Merit is concluded to be a rhetorical tool with the potential of countering images of older people as a burden to the young. It portrays seniors as a population worthy of welfare and reverence. Social movements that emphasize merit among seniors will however risk isolation, since such claims to some extent have become associated with populist attacks on immigrants, politicians and other groups labeled as non-merited.
L’évolution des modèles internationaux du handicap dans la prise en compte de la surdité comme particularisme social
Authors: Rannou Pauline
Published: February 2022

Si la surdité se définit le plus souvent en termes organiques, par le manque et par opposition à l’audition, sa portée anthropologique est aujourd’hui de plus en plus perceptible en France. À travers la contextualisation des dimensions du handicap et l’évolution de ses modèles au niveau international, cette contribution propose une réflexion sur les enjeux des modèles théoriques qui ancrent les représentations contemporaines liées à la surdité. Nous exposerons ainsi les rapports qu’entretiennent les modèles différentialiste, social et biomédical du handicap pour proposer une ouverture vers un modèle interactif de la surdité.
L’amélioration des compétences scolaires des enfants de migrants en Suisse : l’encouragement comme nouveau paradigme des politiques éducatives
Authors: Mottet Geneviève
Published: February 2022

Cet article s’intéresse à la manière dont les politiques suisses se sont déployées depuis les années 2000 pour promouvoir l’amélioration des compétences scolaires des enfants de migrants. L’encouragement apparaît comme un nouveau paradigme de la lutte contre la désaffiliation scolaire et sociale des publics dont les caractéristiques sont appréhendées à partir de la notion de « cumul du handicap social et ethnique ». Nous verrons tout d’abord que ce mode de désignation et de reconnaissance des publics « à risque » s’opérationnalise par le développement de mesures ciblant les territoires au fort taux de pauvreté et visant à l’augmentation des compétences des jeunes y vivant dans des conditions d’apprentissage défavorables. L’article montrera ensuite comment dans cette visée de lutte contre les risques de chômage et d’assistance des populations qui vivent dans ces territoires, l’accompagnement des publics « à risque » s’est opéré par l’institutionnalisation de dispositifs encourageant leur prise en charge précoce (préscolarisation), par les institutions de l’État ainsi que, parallèlement, par l’encouragement des carrières exemplaires des migrants « à potentiels ». Il révèle les enjeux sous-jacents aux mots d’ordre promus unilatéralement.
Regards croisés sur le handicap en contexte francophone et Au carrefour de l’altérité. Pratiques et représentations du handicap dans l’espace francophone, une recension en miroir
Authors: Arneton Mélissa
Published: February 2022

Cette recension présente en miroir deux ouvrages parus en 2020 sur les représentations du handicap dans l’espace francophone. Issus de réseaux scientifiques différents, ils s’inscrivent dans une approche mêlant disability studies et mise en oeuvre d’une société inclusive. Cette note de lecture s’intéressera plus particulièrement aux contributions intégrant une investigation du croisement de catégories d’appartenance réelle ou supposée des personnes (handicap, genre, situations de multiculturalisme…). Si des travaux et des réflexions existent déjà en langue anglaise sur la fécondité des croisements pour comprendre la complexité des vécus interindividuels, les processus intergroupes ou les traitements sociopolitiques liés au handicap, l’exposé de tels travaux en langue française sont plus rares.
TaskTimeTracker: A tool for temporal analysis of the problem solving process
Authors: Pla-Castells Marta , García-Fernández Ignacio
Published: February 2022

The analysis of the problem solving process in mathematics can shed light on the learning process. However, the analysis of this process is a difficult task that has to face the complexity and non linearity of the process itself.
In this work we present the TTT software tool aimed to facilitate the registration and graphical representation of the steps that are followed by a group of students during the resolution of a problem, together with the time extension of these steps. This tool is based upon, and extends, the representation schemes presented by Arleback(2009), and can be applied to any problem resolution process (either mathematical or not) that can be divided into phases or categories along time.

A bioimpedance spectroscopic imaging method for detecting the biological tissue based on electrical impedance tomography (EIT) and bioimpedance spectroscopy (BIS) is proposed. This method visualizes the target area and accurately recognizes the target type, which can be used for detecting the early lung cancer, assist clinicians in accurately detecting the early lung cancer, and improving the cure rate of early lung cancer. In this paper the bioimpedance spectroscopic imaging method is verified to be feasible and effective in detecting the early lung cancer through numerical simulation. The simulation results show that 1) the bioimpedance spectroscopic imaging method can realize the visualization of the early lung cancer area and accurately distinguish the type of early lung cancer, and 2) the optimal number of acquisitions of impedance spectroscopy is 4, and the best classifier is Linear-SVM, and the average classification accuracy of 5-fold cross-validation can reach 99.9%. In order to verify the simulation results, three biological tissues with different electrical characteristics are selected to simulate cancerous regions used for detection. The experimental results show that the method can visualize the biological tissue area and distinguish the type of biological tissue. This method can integrate the advantages of electrical impedance imaging and bioimpedance spectroscopy, and is very promising way of detecting early lung cancer.
Extracellular electron transfer increases fermentation in lactic acid bacteria via a hybrid metabolism

Energy conservation in microorganisms is classically categorized into respiration and fermentation; however, recent work shows some species can use mixed or alternative bioenergetic strategies. We explored the use of extracellular electron transfer for energy conservation in diverse lactic acid bacteria (LAB), microorganisms that mainly rely on fermentative metabolism and are important in food fermentations. The LAB Lactiplantibacillus plantarum uses extracellular electron transfer to increase its NAD+/NADH ratio, generate more ATP through substrate-level phosphorylation, and accumulate biomass more rapidly. This novel, hybrid metabolism is dependent on a type-II NADH dehydrogenase (Ndh2) and conditionally requires a flavin-binding extracellular lipoprotein (PplA) under laboratory conditions. It confers increased fermentation product yield, metabolic flux, and environmental acidification in laboratory media and during kale juice fermentation. The discovery of a single pathway that simultaneously blends features of fermentation and respiration in a primarily fermentative microorganism expands our knowledge of energy conservation and provides immediate biotechnology applications.
The MIDAS domain of AAA mechanoenzyme Mdn1 forms catch bonds with two different substrates

Published: February 2022

Catch bonds are a form of mechanoregulation wherein protein-ligand interactions are strengthened by the application of dissociative tension. Currently, the best-characterized examples of catch bonds are between single protein-ligand pairs. The essential AAA (ATPase associated with diverse cellular activities) mechanoenzyme Mdn1 drives at least two separate steps in ribosome biogenesis, using its MIDAS domain to extract the ubiquitin-like (UBL) domain-containing proteins Rsa4 and Ytm1 from ribosomal precursors. However, it must subsequently release these assembly factors to reinitiate the enzymatic cycle. The mechanism underlying the switching of the MIDAS-UBL interaction between strongly and weakly bound states is unknown. Here, we use optical tweezers to investigate the force dependence of MIDAS-UBL binding. Parallel experiments with Rsa4 and Ytm1 show that forces up to ~4 pN, matching the magnitude of force produced by AAA proteins similar to Mdn1, enhance the MIDAS domain binding lifetime up to 10-fold, and higher forces accelerate dissociation. Together, our studies indicate that Mdn1’s MIDAS domain can form catch bonds with more than one UBL substrate, and provide insights into how mechanoregulation may contribute to the Mdn1 enzymatic cycle during ribosome biogenesis.
Accelerating covering array generation by combinatorial join for industry scale software testing

Published: February 2022

Combinatorial interaction testing, which is a technique to verify a system with numerous input parameters, employs a mathematical object called a covering array as a test input. This technique generates a limited number of test cases while guaranteeing a given combinatorial coverage. Although this area has been studied extensively, handling constraints among input parameters remains a major challenge, which may significantly increase the cost to generate covering arrays. In this work, we propose a mathematical operation, called “weaken-product based combinatorial join”, which constructs a new covering array from two existing covering arrays. The operation reuses existing covering arrays to save computational resource by increasing parallelism during generation without losing combinatorial coverage of the original arrays. Our proposed method significantly reduce the covering array generation time by 13–96% depending on use case scenarios.
