Cel pracyCelem pracy było ustalenie modelu związku pomiędzy nasileniem objawów stresu pourazowego, poziomu odczuwanego stresu oraz strategiami radzenia sobie ze stresem u matek dzieci w przeszłości leczonych w Oddziale Intensywnej Terapii Noworodka.MetodaAnonimowe badanie kwestionariuszowe objęło 62 matki niemowląt w wieku od 3 do 12 miesięcy, które w przeszłości wymagały leczenia w oddziałach intensywnej opieki noworodków. Respondentki wypełniały kwestionariusz złożony ze standaryzowanych narzędzi badawczych: Zrewidowanej skali wpływu zdarzeń (IES-R), Kwestionariusza radzenia sobie ze stresem COPE i Skali odczuwanego stresu (PSS-10).WynikiNasilenie objawów stresu pourazowego wyjaśnia model składający się z czterech zmiennych: trzech strategii radzenia sobie ze stresem (koncentracja na emocjach i ich wyładowanie, zaprzeczenie, odwracanie uwagi), oraz odczuwanego stresu. Model ten wyjaśnia niemal 40% objawów zespołu stresu pourazowego. Odczuwany stres częściowo wpływa na PTSD poprzez jedną strategię – zaprzeczenie, która także wpływa na nasilenie objawów stresu pourazowego, niezależnie od postrzeganego stresu.WnioskiKoncentracja na emocjach i ich wyładowanie, zaprzeczenie, odwracanie uwagi i poziom odczuwanego stresu są potencjalnie modyfikowalnymi czynnikami, silnie związanymi z występowaniem PTSD. Wskazane jest planowanie, realizacja i ocena skuteczności interwencji dotyczących ograniczania dysfunkcyjnych strategii radzenia sobie ze stresem i odczuwanego stresu u matek niemowląt wymagających leczenia w Oddziale Intensywnej Terapii Noworodków. W celu zminimalizowania dystresu i poprawy radzenia sobie z leczeniem dziecka konieczna jest ocena efektów różnych metod wspierania rodziców.

Abstract. Abed F, Bachir-Bouiadjra B, Dahloum L, Yakubu A, Haddad A, Homrani A. 2021. Procruste analysis of forewing shape in two endemic honeybee subspecies Apis mellifera intermissa and A. m. sahariensis from the Northwest of Algeria. Biodiversitas 22: 154-164. Honey bees play an important role as pollinators of many crops. Thus they are collectively considered as a veritable economic source. The present study was undertaken to describe variation in the right forewing geometry in two Algerian honeybee subspecies Apis mellifera intermissa and Apis mellifera sahariensis using landmark-based geometric morphometrics. A total of 1286 honeybees were sampled from 12 provinces in the northwest of Algeria. The forewing geometry was evaluated using 20 homologous landmarks by applying Procrustes superimposition analysis. The top four principal components accounted for only 41.1% of wing shape variation between the two subspecies. There was a significant difference in wing shape between the two subspecies (Mahalanobis distance = 1.0626 ; P<0.001), whereas their wing size seemed similar (P>0.05). Regarding the allometric effect, the percentage of variation in wing shape explained by size changes was relatively small, with 1.28% and 4.37% for A. m. intermissa and A.m sahariensis, respectively. The cross-validation procedure correctly classified 68.3% of specimens into their original groups. PERMANOVA test revealed significant differences in the right forewing shape among all geographic areas studied (P<0.001). The results clearly showed that the landmark-based geometric approach applied to forewings venation is a powerful and reliable tool in the discrimination of native honey bee subspecies and should be considered in local honey bee biodiversity improvement and conservation initiatives.
Ironie als Verführungskunst: Kommunikative Funktionen und pragmatische Effekte ironischer Äußerungen zur Schaffung von Gruppenbildung in halbstrukturierten Gesprächen
Authors: Calpestrati Nicolò 
Published: February 2021

Irony is a double-edged sword. It is a rhetorical strategy, which in spoken language is mostly used for entertainment, but can also be used as a face threatening act.
In semi-structured conversations, such as talk show rounds, the effects of irony depend on variables such as the type of TV talk shows in which the conversation develops, the participants involved and the relationships between them.
This article deals with the identification of the communicative functions of ironic utterances, how they are handled by the various parties involved (guests and TV-presenters, the public in the studio and the audience at home) and their pragmatic effects on the development of the on-going communication.
Five episodes of the NDR talk show form the corpus of this work. The observation of both linguistic and paralinguistic markers reveals irony as a rhetorical strategy which, in the context examined, has a mainly seductive function. In fact, it is used from speakers to catch the hearers’ attention, creating affiliation and alignment. This effect is realized through the management of the relationships between interlocutors who belong to different communication circles and are involved in communication in different ways.
From motion perception to Bob Dylan.
Authors: Carstensen Kai-Uwe 
Published: January 2021

Directionals like from New York, through the tunnel, into the dark represent a major class of spatial expressions, typically associated with locomotion (verbs). Semantically, many of their aspects are notoriously difficult to characterize, among them their characteristics (classification, typology), their relation to locatives (e. g. in New York, in the tunnel, in the dark), and their composition with verbs (especially in non-locomotion contexts). Cognitively, there is a big theoretical gap to fill between aspects of low-level motion perception and the conception of static situations in terms of non-actual (loco)motion.
This paper first critically discusses Zwarts’ explicit formal account of directionals, then introduces a Cognitivist attentional semantics and finally applies the Cognitivist approach to directionals. It will be shown that attention-based conceptual representations are necessary components in directional semantics and explanatory for the mentioned aspects.
Temporale und modale Konjunktionen und ihre individuellen Verarbeitungsweisen
Authors: Mazurkiewicz-Sokołowska Jolanta 
Published: January 2021

The paper presents a study within the scope of cognitive linguistics. The aim is to relate Langacker’s assumption about language as meaning to grammatical language items and to examine it, taking the already existing research into consideration, by analysing selected temporal and modal conjunctions. The research object in this comparative analysis are selected German conjunctions and their Polish counterparts. The study provides answers to the following questions:

Is meaning content activated by conjunctions in language processing?
Which emotions are triggered in the participants of the study?
How are the conceptualized meanings and emotional values that are ascribed to the conjunctions influenced by particular contexts of the utterances?

The method of intersubjective introspection makes it possible to trace the allegedly finished processing mechanisms in participants.
Prospektives versus retrospektives Argumentieren.
Authors: Kunert Irene 
Published: January 2021

This study aims to investigate the linguistic differences between an argumentation referring to a potential future action (prospective argumentation) and one justifying a past action (retrospective argumentation) in the parliamentary arena. It is based on the analysis of German and French speeches taken from the protocols of the plenary sessions of the European Parliament.
In a plenary session, parliamentary votes are preceded by a general debate. During this debate, speakers may give reasons supporting their own choice in an upcoming vote, but they may also try to persuade other Members of Parliament to vote the same way. This argumentation is prospective. After the vote, Members may give an oral or written explanation of vote designed to justify their decision. The argumentative orientation in this case is retrospective. In an exemplary approach, 50 speeches per language (German/French) and communication situation (prospective/retrospective) will be analyzed. The study argues that the macrostructure of the speeches is influenced by the orientation of the conclusion: In a prospective argumentation, speakers tend to first present their arguments before coming up with their conclusion, the conclusion being a declaration of one’s own intent to vote or a recommendation for other Members of Parliament. In a prototypical explanation of vote, the conclusion precedes the arguments. Special attention is given to the analysis of argument and conclusion markers. The study tries to show that conclusion markers are relatively more frequent in prospective argumentation, while retrospective argumentation makes broader use of argument markers.
Überzeugungs- und Überredungsmittel in mündlichen Aufforderungsakten im deutsch-italienischen Sprachvergleich
Authors: Venuti Ilaria , Hinterhölzl Roland 
Published: January 2021

The purpose of this study is to draw a comparison between the realization of requestive speech acts in Italian and in German, and to investigate the different strategies of persuasion in the two speech communities, with a particular attention to the relationship between efficiency and politeness.
The empirical part of the study consists in the comparison of 320 requests formulated by Italian and German speakers. Linguistic data were elicited by means of a discourse completion test containing four socio-pragmatic situations. Realizations of requests were analysed according to the Cross-Cultural Speech Act Realization Project’s (CCSARP) Coding Manual, reported in Blum-Kulka, House and Kasper (1989), and discussed at two levels: the cross cultural variation and the situational variation.
Results show that both groups of participants are perfectly aware of the differences between the situations proposed and tailor their requests according to the context. It is found that both groups of subjects rely heavily on conventionally indirect strategies. On the whole, German speakers appear to use more indirect request strategies than their Italian counterparts, and at the same time choose with a higher frequency phrasal, lexical and syntactical modificators. Italian speakers tend to select slightly lower levels of indirectness but compensate with a consistently larger use of external modificators. Moreover, both Italian and German speakers seem to recur more often to strategies of Überzeugung, probably because the most used modificator for both groups of respondents is the Grounder.
Our results differ in interesting ways from general expectations in the situation in which the face threat is arguably the highest, calling for further investigation of the difference in the perception of the social parameters determining the rated face threat between the two speech communities. Deeper insights into the link between indirectness and politeness in the two cultures at issue are also needed in order to understand the reasons behind the pragmatic choices observed.
Der s-Plural im Alemannischen.
Authors: Klein Andreas , Kopf Kristin 
Published: January 2021

It is commonly agreed that the plural -s has become a part of Standard German inflection, yet in dialects such as Alemannic it is often seen as an intruder. We challenge this view based on data from a written survey amongst speakers of Swiss German dialects. Our analysis of pluralised loanwords (e. g. Mango) and abbreviations (e. g. WG ‘flat share’) shows a strong effect of both speakers’ age and grammatical gender that points towards a progressive integration of the plural -s into the dialectal system.
While masculine and neuter nouns can express number syntagmatically (using articles that differ in singular and plural), feminine nouns rely heavily on suffixes (as the definite article is d’ in both cases). A comparison of the -s plural with traditional dialectal plurals shows clear advantages for -s plurals in both cue strength (output) and scope (input) of the plural schema. We argue that it is due to this that feminine nouns show a significantly higher percentage of -s plurals compared with masculine and neuter nouns in speakers aged 25 and above. The difference disappears for younger speakers while the overall number of -s plurals increases drastically. Combined, we have an apparent time scenario that shows how the -s plural is first borrowed with nouns that rely on overt plural markers, and later spreads to most loans and other words with non-native structure.
Von Staatsgrenze zu Dialektgrenze.

Published: January 2021

The ANR/DFG cooperation project called “FLARS – Effects of the national border on the linguistic situation in the Upper Rhine area”, between the University of Freiburg and the University of Strasbourg, examined the emergence and the nature of a linguistic border between France and Germany in the Alemannic-speaking regions Alsace and Baden, and its interdependence with the political border. The project data were collected through interviews conducted in 40 localities alongside the political border. The questions focused on what informants think and say about languages and about their use of them; about the current state of the dialects, the way they are spoken, their usefulness, their importance; and also on what they think and say about the way the inhabitants of the other side of the Rhine speak, what may make it different, and their position regarding that.
A first analysis shows that most of the French and German informants think that both sides of the Rhine do not differ much linguistically, but that this proximity is not a sufficient condition for evoking a “transnational language”, as other aspects of their lives, lifestyles and identities are considered as different. This article will focus on the discourse produced by dialect speakers about the Rhine as a border and about common or different linguistic and cultural features with their neighbours.

BackgroundBrucellosis occurs globally with highly variable incidence in humans from very low in North America and Western Europe to high in the Middle East and Asia. There are few data in Sub-Saharan Africa. This study estimated the incidence of human brucellosis in a pastoralist community in Kenya.MethodsBetween February 2015 and January 2016, we enrolled persons living in randomly selected households in Kajiado County. Free health care was offered at three facilities in the study area. Those who met the study clinical case definition completed a standardized questionnaire on demographics, clinical history and presentation. A blood sample was collected and tested by Rose Bengal test (RBT), then later tested at the Kenya Medical Research Institute laboratory forBrucellaIgG and IgM by ELISA. Those who tested positive by both RBT and ELISA (IgG or IgM antibodies) were classified as confirmed while those that only tested positive for IgG or IgM antibodies were classified as probable. Further, sera were tested by polymerase chain reaction using a TaqMan Array Card (TAC) for a panel of pathogens causing AFI includingBrucella spp. Annual incidence of brucellosis was calculated as the number of confirmed cases in one year/total number in the study population.ResultsWe enrolled a cohort of 4746 persons in 804 households. Over half (52.3%) were males and the median age was 18 years (Interquartile range (IQR) 9 months– 32 years). A total of 236 patients were enrolled at three health facilities; 64% were females and the median age was 40.5 years (IQR 28–53 years). Thirty-nine (16.5%) were positive forBrucellaantibodies by IgG ELISA, 5/236 (2.1%) by IgM ELISA and 4/236 (1.7%) by RBT. Ten percent (22/217) were positive by TAC. We confirmed four (1.7%) brucellosis cases giving an annual incidence of 84/100,000 persons/year (95% CI 82, 87). The incidence did not significantly vary by gender, age and location of residence.ConclusionWe report a high incidence of brucellosis in humans among members of this pastoralist community. Brucellosis was the most common cause of febrile illness in this community.

Published: January 2021

Instagram Stories is one of the main features of Instagram. Indonesia becomes one of the most active countries in using and creating Instagram Stories content compared to other countries. However, the use of the Instagram Stories feature has raised concerns because of the daily activities, such as food consumed, holiday activities, and emotions that become the public consumptions by sharing moments using photos or videos through the Instagram Stories feature. When people use the feature on Instagram Stories to take moments and daily activities, this behavior triggers the ignorance of social interactions surrounding them because they only focus on creating Instagram Stories. The phenomenon of the moments’ preservation through Instagram Stories feature can create phubbing behavior as a definition that describes someone’s indifferent behavior in an environment. They tend to focus on their smartphones rather than interacting with their surroundings. This study was conducted to explore the influence of using Instagram Stories on Generation Z’s phubbing behavior in Salatiga city. It used quantitative methods with the linear regression technique. It used a purposive random sampling technique with 397 respondents as the samples. The result of this study showed that the use of Instagram Stories affects the phubbing behavior in Generation Z in Salatiga, as for the percentage of the influence of the variable use in Instagram Stories toward phubbing behavior is 31.1%. The rest, which is 68.9%, is affected by other factors outside of the use of Instagram Stories that were not conducted by the researchers
A Unified Approach for Establishing Soil Water Retention and Volume Change Behavior of Soft Soils
Authors: Mishra Partha Narayan , Scheuermann Alexander , Bhuyan M. Habibullah 
Published: January 2021

Abstract
The assumption of treating the specimen volume as constant while experimentally determining the soil water retention curve (SWRC) of soils is valid only for nonplastic, granular soils. Fine-grained soils usually undergo significant volume change during dewatering and densification, and therefore such an assumption is misleading, even falsifying. The need for developing an easy-to-use lab-scale technique that can enable continuous monitoring of the evolutions in volume, suction, and moisture content of a progressively drying soft soil specimen is evident in the field of characterizing unsaturated soils. Such a method is relevant to establishing SWRC and soil shrinkage curve (SSC) of soft soils that exhibit an appreciable degree of deformation upon subjection to dewatering. To this end, a simple yet improvised method based on the balloon technique incorporating a commercially available high-capacity polymer tensiometer has been proposed to establish SWRC-SSC of soft soils. A comparison between the SWRC and SSC obtained through the proposed method and the conventional methods demonstrated a satisfactory degree of agreement. Densification of the materials realized under the influence of mechanical and hydraulic stresses has been discussed through a comparative analysis between the results from the proposed method and one-dimensional odometer test. For soft soils, the proposed method is particularly appropriate for establishing SWRC in terms of volumetric moisture content and degree of saturation through just a single test.

This study aimed to know the users’ perception of spatial planning in the Tarumanagara Knowledge Center (TKC), Library of Tarumanegara University. It was a descriptive quantitative study that relied on the users’ perception on the spatial planning of the knowledge center as the primary sources. While, the sample involved in the study comprised 90 people who visited the knowledge center taken randomly. Data collection techniques used a Likert scale-based questionnaire distributed to the targeted visitors or users. The collected data were then analyzed using a descriptive statistic. The results showed that the user's perception of the principles in the library layout obtained an average score of 3.07 that meant Good. Perceptions of aspects in library spatial planning get an average score of 3.20 that meant Good. Library users' perceptions of patterns in library layout get an average score of 3.14 that meant Good. Library users' perceptions of the spatial library get an average score of 3.18 that meant Good. Library users' perceptions of library space arrangement get an average score of 2.82 that meant Good. While the final score of the overall average of 3.06 that felt into Good category. It can be concluded that Tarumanegara knowledge Center with its spatial planning was able to provide comfortable rooms and facilities that satisfied the users to access available sources.

The purpose of this study was to describe the understanding of the meaning of the word ‘auliya’ in Quran Al-Maidah:51 and its implementation in the Indonesia and Malaysia leader election. This research was a qualitative study with library analysis where the data were derived from questionnaire and interview of 26 respondents from Indonesia and Malaysia. The respondents were those who understood Arabic and were able to interpret the Quran. The object of the research was the translation of Surah Almaidah verse by JAKIM and the Ministry of Religious Affairs of Indonesia. The Creswell model was used in data analysis by reading, coding, interpreting and giving the meaning to topics. A descriptive statistical analysis was used to describe the data from questionnaire and interview. It was found that Indonesian and Malaysian respondents had a similar perception to understand the meaning of the word ‘auliya’ as a leader implemented in the presidential and governors elections, and even to determine political parties. The difference in the translation of the Quran did not have a significant effect on the political practices in Indonesia and Malaysia
