Notas sobre Vallejo y poesía emancipatoria
Authors: Nouzeilles Gabriela , Vallejo César 
Published: August 2019

Abstract
Parafraseando a Roque Dalton, el poeta radical salvadoreño ya fallecido, cuando el presente está cargado con la urgencia de actuar a como dé lugar, hay que considerar nuevamente la poesía de César Vallejo hasta en su más mínimo detalle. Nadie entendió mejor que Vallejo que articular el pasado históricamente significa “apoderarse de un recuerdo, como si fuera un relámpago en un momento de peligro.” Vallejo insinuó el evento radical que era ya el “mañana” y el tiempo futuro redimidible que aparece en estado permanente de advenimiento. Encriptada en su poesía, la única pregunta todavía es: “¿Cómo se llama cuanto heriza nos?” Como ayer, seguimos preguntándonos cómo responder y confrontar diferentes formas de violencia sistemática.
Llamamiento al paro internacional de mujeres – 8 de marzo 2018
Authors: Menos Ni Una 
Published: August 2019

Abstract
En este llamamiento a huelga, las integrantes de Ni Una Menos definen la huelga como una herramienta que reinventan para desarmar el esquema de violencia contra las mujeres. La huelga, escriben, les permite mapear nuevas formas coloniales e imperiales desplegadas contra las economías y territorios de las mujeres. Las que están en huelga investigan y activan resistencias y desobediencias, la producción de formas de vida alternativas y cuerpos rebeldes. Las que se organizan—mujeres, lesbianas, personas trans, cuerpos feminizados del mundo—buscan propagar un virus desafiante. En una demostración de fuerza y con un grito colectivo para el 8 de marzo de 2018, las mujeres en huelga: ¡Ni Una Menos, Vivas Nos Queremos!
Expanding contraceptive choice in Ethiopia: a comparative analysis of method mixes in post-abortion contraception versus routine family planning
Authors: Samuel Melaku , Muluye Samuel , Tolossa Tewodros , Alemayehu Ashenafi 
Published: August 2019

Background: In Ethiopia, a low contraceptive prevalence and high unmet need coupled with skewed method mix clearly signify the need for comprehensive family planning delivery strategies. Ipas implemented problem-focused intervention to improve service delivery standards and provide accessible, high-quality family planning services. This analysis seeks to compare the contraceptive method mix in routine and post-abortion contraception services and to suggest how multifaceted service delivery approaches can help address the unmet family planning need. Methods: The intervention was implemented in 127 public health facilities providing both routine and post-abortion contraception services, from 2010 to 2017. The intervention focused on service delivery and program management gaps identified during the baseline assessment. Service data regularly collected from intervention facilities and entered into a Microsoft Excel database to conduct descriptive analysis, review trends, and monitor progress. Results: Trend analysis of method choice patterns revealed that the share of method mix for long-acting reversible contraceptives(LARCs) rose from 3% in 2010 to 40% in 2017 in routine family planning service, whereas in the post-abortion contraception service, the share for LARCs climbed from 2% in 2010 to 62% in 2017(P<0.001). Trend analysis of LARC uptake in post-abortion contraception revealed that implant use rose from 2% in 2010 to 54% in 2017, while intrauterine device (IUD) use increased from 0.1% in 2010 to 9% in 2017. In routine program, proportion of implant acceptors increased from 3% in 2010 to 35% in 2017, while IUD acceptance increased far more slowly, from only 0.07% to 5% over the same period. Conclusions: Comprehensive contraceptive service delivery strategies, such as integration of family planning with other maternal health services can help the service to reach clients with a variety of needs, a key factor for a higher uptake of LARCs by abortion clients as compared to routine family planning program.
Beyond the Information Age and into the New Decision Age
Authors: Mu Enrique 
Published: August 2019

Beyond the Information Age was the theme of the MCDM 2019 meeting in Istanbul this past June. What does the theme mean? While the MCDM organizers did not reach an agreement on what is next, the fact that they chose Beyond the Information Age as a theme for the most important conference on decision-making is quite telling. I think the message is that now that we have large amounts of information and easy communication available, the so-called information and communication technology (ICT), the next step is to be able to use this capability for effective decision-making.
Celtic Heroines: The Contributions of Women Scholars to Arthurian Studies in the Celtic Languages
Authors: Kapphahn Krista 
Published: August 2019

Abstract
This article surveys some of the main contributions of female scholars to the study of Arthurian literature in the Celtic languages from the nineteenth century to the present day. Scholarship by women has been integral to the study of Celtic Arthurian literature since the translations of native Welsh texts by Lady Charlotte Guest. Since then, women’s contributions have been foundational to the field, influencing theories of transmission, analysis and the standard editions of much Arthurian material in Welsh, Irish, Gaelic and Breton. They remain vital to the life of Arthurian scholarship, and the final section addresses contributions by younger scholars whose lasting influence remains to be seen.
Thanks for Typing: Women’s Roles in Editions and Translations of Arthurian Literature in Penguin Classics, 1959–1985
Authors: Lyons Rebecca E. 
Published: August 2019

Abstract
Based on documentary research undertaken in the Penguin Archive in the University of Bristol’s Special Collections, this article highlights various ways in which women’s often invisible labour contributed to the publication of editions and translations of medieval and early modern Arthurian literature in the mid- to late-twentieth century. The discussion includes a range of roles and individuals involved in bringing Arthurian literature to publication, including the academics commissioned to undertake translations, the editors and administrators in Penguin’s employ, as well as secretaries, wives, readers and other figures operating outside of Penguin. The article attempts a recuperation of the women’s labour involved in bringing Arthurian literature to the masses, and celebrates their part in the establishment and perpetuation of Arthurian Studies as a discipline.
Tissue-Specific Transcriptomes Reveal Gene Expression Trajectories in Two Maturing Skin Epithelial Layers in Zebrafish Embryos

Published: August 2019

AbstractEpithelial cells are the building blocks of many organs, including skin. The vertebrate skin initially consists of two epithelial layers, the outer periderm and inner basal cell layers, which have distinct properties, functions, and fates. The embryonic periderm ultimately disappears during development, whereas basal cells proliferate to form the mature, stratified epidermis. Although much is known about mechanisms of homeostasis in mature skin, relatively little is known about the two cell types in pre-stratification skin. To define the similarities and distinctions between periderm and basal skin epithelial cells, we purified them from zebrafish at early development stages and deeply profiled their gene expression. These analyses identified groups of genes whose tissue enrichment changed at each stage, defining gene flow dynamics of maturing vertebrate epithelia. At each of 52 and 72 hr post-fertilization (hpf), more than 60% of genes enriched in skin cells were similarly expressed in both layers, indicating that they were common epithelial genes, but many others were enriched in one layer or the other. Both expected and novel genes were enriched in periderm and basal cell layers. Genes encoding extracellular matrix, junctional, cytoskeletal, and signaling proteins were prominent among those distinguishing the two epithelial cell types. In situ hybridization and BAC transgenes confirmed our expression data and provided new tools to study zebrafish skin. Collectively, these data provide a resource for studying common and distinguishing features of maturing epithelia.

La educación ambiental: ¿uno de los medios para evitar los desastres de origen antrópico?
Authors: Jengich Buck Alexa 
Published: August 2019

Este artículo busca reflexionar sobre el impacto que tiene la presencia del ser humano en su medio ambiente, lo que ocasiona con frecuencia desastres catalogados como de origen antrópico.
Además, se parte de la urgencia de revisar algunos aspectos que interfieren con la educación ambiental y que ponen en riesgo la sobrevivencia de una generación joven que ya nació.
En consecuencia, interesa enfocar el problema desde el punto de vista epistemológico, analizando el asunto desde la óptica de aquellos pensamientos que mantienen y hacen difícil un cambio de la educación ambiental, hacia el manejo preventivo de las amenazas para el bienestar de toda la población. Se utiliza brevemente el ejemplo del manejo del recurso hídrico, para plantear parte de la dinámica de los desastres de origen antrópico.
Propuesta metodológica para fomentar la igualdad de género en el aula escolar
Authors: Solís Pérez Yisenia 
Published: August 2019

Este trabajo se denomina propuesta metodológica para fortalecer la Igualdad de Género en el Aula Escolar, con niños y niñas de la escuela primaria. Como educadora, he querido aportar a través de mis experiencias vividas, algunas estrategias que permitan fomentar en las y los etudiantes una educación más justa e igualitaria.
Conocedora, de las diferentes prácticas sexistas y estereotipos altamente arraigados en nuestra sociedad, los cuales obstaculizan que algunas mujeres logren desenvolverse según sus propias capacidades y potencialidades, limitándolas a cumplir con el papel que la sociedad les asigna según su sexo, deseo aportar una propuesta para que las y los estudiantes vivan en el aula una igualdad real. Es la escuela uno de los agentes socializadores más importantes y en donde se debe propiciar el cambio en pro de una educación de equidad.
El trabajo a nivel de aula permitirá disminuir los esquemas discriminatorios y será un gran logro en beneficio de las futuras generaciones. Las interrelaciones que se viven en esa microcultura llamada aula, son muy enriquecedoras y variadas, por lo que es un lugar propicio para iniciar cambios en materia de género.
Didáctica y vivencias del servicio de apoyo de la Escuela José Ramón Hernández

Published: August 2019

La atención a la diversidad es un reto que enfrenta el sistema educativo costarricense y las transformaciones que conlleva empujan desde sus bases poco a poco los cambios requeridos.
El reconocimiento de la diversidad estudiantil en el ámbito escolar es un hecho ineludible, porque cada estudiante coexiste en distintas realidades, estructuras familiares, contextos sociales y culturales donde las diferencias y semejanzas juegan un papel determinante en la convivencia humana.
Los servicios de apoyo están inmersos en esta realidad. La población estudiantil que presenta necesidades educativas derivadas de una discapacidad o de una condición especial, demanda cada vez más diversificar los espacios de intervención pedagógica empleando estrategias innovadoras y adaptadas a sus características y necesidades. Asimismo, que les permita un aprendizaje significativo y un desarrollo integral.

Published: August 2019

La investigación desarrollada acerca del concepto de esquema corporal de niñas y niños con o sin necesidades educativas especiales (nee) de preescolar, segundo y cuarto grados, aporta datos relativos a las representaciones gráficas de los participantes acerca del esquema corporal. La mayoría de los estudiantes de ambos grupos representan adecuadamente la imagen corporal, no obstante, un grupo significativo de estudiantes con necesidades educativas especiales de los tres niveles educativos, muestran en sus dibujos representaciones del esquema corporal con características en transición a las esperadas para su edad cronológica. También un grupo menor de estudiantes con y sin necesidades educativas especiales, de preescolar y segundo grado expresan en sus dibujos características con mayor evolución a las previstas para su edad.
Se sugiere retomar en los procesos de enseñanza y de aprendizaje del esquema corporal, los conocimientos previos de los y las estudiantes y enfatizar no sólo en aspectos referidos al conocimiento del cuerpo, sino también a la imagen corporal, así como aplicar diversas actividades didácticas que permitan la vivencia y construcción de los conceptos abordados.
La metacognición como estrategia para detectar procesos cognitivos en niños con retraso mental
Authors: Vázquez Chaves Ana Patricia , León Rodríguez Suzanne , Rodríguez Ramírez María Judith 
Published: August 2019

Este artículo se basa en una investigación tendiente a detectar los procesos cognitivos que empleaban los niños con retraso mental en la resolución de situaciones matemáticas, mediante el uso de estrategias metacognitivas. Se trabajó con una muestra de veinte niños con retraso mental que asisten a aulas integradas, de las provincias de Heredia y Alajuela. Se elaboró la Batería de Resolución de Situaciones matemáticas (BARSIMAR) para detectar los procesos cognitivos que empleaban los niños ante la ejecución de las estrategias metacognitivas. Los resultados demuestran que entre mayor sea el compromiso cognitivo de los niños mayor dificultad presentan al emplear los procesos cognitivos y al registrar la información en la memoria de corto plazo. Los niños más avanzados, lograron emplear mejor los procesos, pero con interferencias y dificultades para recuperar la información de la memoria a largo plazo y dar respuestas adecuadas ante la tarea cognitiva que tiene en frente.
Relationship Between Organisational Effectiveness and Project Performance of SME Contractors: a Developing Country Perspective
Authors: Ogbu C. P. , Olatunde N. 
Published: August 2019

Organisational effectiveness (OE) theory provides a veritable framework for examining organisational performance. This theory has, however, made a very little inroad into construction management literature, and there are limited discussions on the domains within which construction firms can measure their OE. Besides this, the extent to which corporate OE determines a contractor's project performance is not fully understood, primarily, in the small and medium-sized enterprise (SME) contractor context. Based on data from 53 projects in higher institutions in Nigeria, this study evaluated the measures of corporate OE of SME contractors and examined the contributions of the corporate OE of the firms to their project performance. By factor analysis, it was discovered that the SME contractors' corporate OE can be measured using corporate advantage, firm experience, firm certification and firm owner background. Using canonical correlation, a significant relationship was found between the OE of the firms and the measures of project performance. The analysis further revealed that project cost and quality performances are bettered by increases in firm certification and experience, although time performance tends to worsen as a result. In addition to identifying the domains for measuring an SME contractor's OE, this study shows that better firm experience does not necessarily improve a contractors' project time performance. Construction stakeholders and the public should beware of firms that only boast of an excellent corporate advantage and ownership by prominent persons in the society, but without adequate experience and certification.

Published: August 2019

Maintenance performance measurement aims to assess and improve the value created after maintenance efforts, as it determines the impact of maintenance on the performance of a system or facility and its business process. As objects of maintenance, prison facilities ought to provide a safe and decent environment for prison staff and prisoners to work and live in, as well as for all others who interact with the facilities. This study evaluates the satisfaction ratings of maintenance performance on prison facilities in Southwestern, Nigeria. A survey approach was adopted to collect data from the relevant Nigerian prison staff population of 2,187 prison workers, excluding staff in the maintenance unit within a specific period. Stratified sampling technique was used to generate a sample of 1,094, which is representative of the entire population across the prisons. Three hundred and eighty (35%) out of the one thousand and ninety-four copies of the questionnaire were completed and returned. Data collected were analysed using the SPSS package. The study found that prison staff showed satisfaction with the level of cleanliness in the prison environment, quality of water and control of ventilation employing a window, as well as partial satisfaction with the twenty-nine other criterion assessed. Overall, the study indicated partial satisfaction for performance on prison facilities and established a significant agreement among prison staff regarding the perception of the performance of prison facilities. The research, therefore, suggests continuous evaluation of maintained prison facilities to ascertain their condition and performance levels.

Site Response in the Oklahoma Region from Seismic Recordings of the 2011 Mw 5.7 Prague Earthquake
Authors: Mendoza Carlos , Hartzell Stephen 
Published: August 2019

ABSTRACT
We invert the shear‐wave displacement spectra obtained from 30 three‐component, broadband waveforms recorded within 300 km of the 6 November 2011 Mw 5.7 Prague, Oklahoma, earthquake to recover the site‐response contribution using an inversion method that simultaneously inverts for source, path, and site effects. Site‐response functions identify resonant frequencies within a range of 0.1–10 Hz that generally coincide with spectral peaks in horizontal‐to‐vertical ratio curves derived from the recorded waveforms. S‐wave velocity profiles available for several sites were also used to calculate theoretical SH transfer functions that predict the site amplification due to the near‐surface soil structure down to depths of 30–50 m. The transfer functions do not provide resonance information below about 5–8 Hz, indicating that the spectral peaks in the site response obtained from the waveform analysis result from deeper velocity variations. A 0.3 Hz spectral peak observed at several stations, for example, coincides with the strong, surface‐wave amplitudes observed at 3 s periods for induced M≥3 earthquakes in Oklahoma and Kansas, suggesting that this resonant peak may be due to surface waves trapped in the upper ∼2  km sedimentary layer of the crust. Both shallow and deep contributions to the site response are important for the characterization of ground motion from central and eastern North America (CENA) earthquakes. We obtain a corner frequency of 0.229, consistent with independent observations of the size of the event. A frequency‐dependent attenuation relation of Q(f)=1107f0.398 consistent with prior CENA path measurements is also derived.
Waveform Cross‐Correlation for Differential Time Measurement: Bias and Limitations
Authors: Bachura Martin , Fischer Tomáš 
Published: August 2019

ABSTRACT
The waveform cross‐correlation technique is a popular tool for estimating the differential times of seismic phases in a fast and reliable manner. Differential times are used for a variety of methods, with the double‐difference relocation method HypoDD being the most popular. In this work, we analyzed the precision and possible error of cross‐correlated differential times by conducting a simple comparison with reference manual datasets. Our study was carried out on two well‐studied mainshock–aftershock datasets from the seismically active West Bohemia region (Czechia). We observed that the magnitude difference δML between two cross‐correlated earthquakes presents a significant bias, resulting in the over‐ or underestimation of the final differential time of both P and S waves. The earthquakes of differing magnitudes exhibit unequal first pulse durations in otherwise similar waveforms. As a result, the cross‐correlated differential time, which shifts seismograms to the position of maximum cross‐correlation, is different from the differential time between phase arrivals. Our test cases revealed that the resulting deviation from the true differential time depends on the actual δML and can reach values higher than 0.025 s when δML>2. Hence, in standard differential time datasets, the error has a greater impact on the data related to strong events—mainshocks. In HypoDD applications, the error leads to mislocations of mainshocks, and at the same time, the locations of the weak events are improved. We demonstrate the mislocation potential of the error on relocated hypocenters of mainshock–aftershock sequences and earthquake swarms from West Bohemia, as well as on synthetic tests. The error cannot be avoided by changing the cross‐correlated window length or filtration. We propose a few suggestions to suppress the consequences of the magnitude difference data bias. Nonetheless, the differential times error and its effects cannot currently be completely suppressed using the mentioned methods.
