Published: January 2024

Purpose: The objective of this work is to apply a predictive model of bacterial growth to determine the concentration of total coliforms, under controlled laboratory conditions, in wastewater from the city of Riobamba that flows into the Chambo River (Ecuador).

Theoretical Framework: Wastewater pollution is a global problem that affects water quality and public health. Population growth has a drastic impact on the contamination of water bodies, particularly in Ecuador, since most of the effluents are not adequately treated, which becomes a public health and environmental problem. For this reason, over the years, total and fecal coliforms have been used as indicators of water quality.

Design/Methodology/Approach: The study used a mathematical modeling approach of a logistic and deterministic type, and calculated through an executable command designed in the integrated development environment (IDE) with the Visual C# programming language (logic) and the XAML design language (interface).

Findings: The results achieved are 1) the theoretical construction of a mathematical model (logistic model) starting from a differential equation and the taking of three experimental measurements, 2) the computer construction of the bacterial growth model and 3) it has been demonstrated that there is agreement between the values obtained from the model of total coliform growth and the experimental results with a margin of error of less than 1%.

Research, Practical & Social Implications: This information can be used by stakeholders to determine actions that could improve current conditions.

Originality/Value: The result of this study emphasizes that the model proposed can reproduce the growth of coliforms up to a maximum growth point, it is necessary to continue with the development of the same in the stationary phase of bacterial growth and then in the decay phase.

Authors: Vutsova Albena , Yalamov Todor , Arabadzhieva Martina 
Published: January 2024

Purpose: The article aims to investigate how different understanding of ESG and/or CSR influence the adoption of formal ESG/CSR policy and relevant activities, and which factors are related to it as there is a gap in research
on the formation of ESG/CSR strategy.

Theoretical Framework: ESG strategies are one of the critical components for ensuring sustainable growth (Liang et al., 2022), but the understanding of the concept is not necessarily guaranteed. Moreover, despite the increasing interest in the topic, the literature concerning transition and emerging economies and ESG practices is still quite limited (Garcia et al., 2017).

Design/Methodology/Approach: We surveyed various national companies with scalability about their perception and implementation of CSR/ESG and identified three clusters of enterprises based on their understanding of responsibility and sustainability. We analyzed the likelihood of adopting a CSR/ESG strategy for each type.

Findings: The study reveals different elements which impact the process of forming a sustainability strategy in a transition economy and confirms the one of significant precondition is the company size. In addition, strong brands are seen as predictor of a strategy implementation.

Research, Practical & Social Implications: We suggest that business which tend to address the dimension of sustainability have a comprehensive attitude toward strategy adoption and for effectively practicing sustainability awareness of the concept and all its dimensions is key. Based on the classification of the different companies their CSR/ESG activities could be analyzed.

Originality/Value: The results show major factors of sustainability which are crucial to implement a formal sustainability strategy.
The Impact of Retailer Brand Name Substitution on Consumer Trust
Authors: Kannou Ahmed , Rached Kaouther Ben , Abdelkader Saoussen 
Published: January 2024

Purpose: The aim of this article is to understand the impact of retailer brand name substitution on consumer trust.

Theoretical Framework: Drawing on existing research on product brand substitution, the paper introduces variables that could influence consumer trust in situations where a brand name is substituted.

Design/Methodology/Approach: To achieve this goal, a quantitative study was conducted among 351 Tunisian consumers to test the hypotheses and quantify the impact of each variable.

Findings: The results of this research highlight three variables that can contribute to building consumer trust during a retailer brand name substitution, namely: (1) communication about the change; (2) perceived similarity and (3) perceived benefits derived from the change. The results also indicated that consumer attachment has a moderating effect on the relationship between trust and its determinants. More precisely, the stronger the attachment to the initial retailer brand, the more the consumer's trust in the brand decreases after the brand substitution.

Research, Practical & Social implications: This paper assists practitioners in identifying the key success determinants that can facilitate the transfer of consumer trust from the old retailer brand to the new one. It provides guidance for a successful retailer brand name substitution.

Originality/Value: This research fulfils an identified need to study how consumers’ trust in a brand can be transferred successfully in the case of a retailer brand name substitution.

Authors: Silva Edson Oliveira da Silva Oliveira , Silva Gicélia Mendes da Silva Mendes 
Published: January 2024

Na sociedade atual, os conflitos que envolvem o entorno dos corpos hídricos têm se ampliado, em face da valorização destas localidades. Partindo deste cenário global para a perspectiva local, observa-se que o município de Aracaju também vem passando por conflitos devido à crescente exploração imobiliária no entorno do rio Poxim. A sub-bacia do Poxim apresenta-se com formato alongado no sentido noroeste-sudeste, com área aproximada de 348,71 Km². Neste sentido, o objetivo geral deste estudo é o de analisar de que forma as ações de gestão hidroterritorial, no trecho do rio Poxim situado na capital sergipana têm contribuído para o cumprimento da legislação ambiental, de modo que a problemática suscitada foi a seguinte: Em que medida tem ocorrido o (des)cumprimento da legislação ambiental, a partir da análise das práticas de gestão hidroterritorial no rio Poxim no município de Aracaju-Sergipe? O arranjo metodológico recorreu às pesquisas bibliográfica e documental, buscando no método hipotético-dedutivo e Pressão-Estado-Resposta (PER), soluções para o questionamento suscitado, destacando-se a análise da conformidade entre a legislação em recursos hídricos (compliance) e as práticas de gestão hidroterritorial realizados no rio Poxim. Por fim, verificou-se que os poderes estruturantes do Estado, têm negligenciado suas funções, de modo que se constatou o seguinte: são incipientes as políticas públicas voltadas ao rio estudado e as sanções impostas àqueles que degradam o corpo hídrico investigado não desestimulam os degradadores. A partir dos resultados obtidos, recomendando-se a criação de um gabinete de gestão do hidroterritório.

Published: January 2024

O Cerrado, um dos biomas com mais alteração em sua vegetação nos últimos anos, abriga uma região de grande expansão agrícola, conhecida por MATOPIBA (acrônimo utilizado para designar os estados de Maranhão, Tocantins, Piauí e Bahia), a nova fronteira agrícola. Ao longo das décadas pode-se observar uma alteração na paisagem florística dessa localidade, através da redução da vegetação nativa e aumento expressivo da vegetação agrícola. Essa interferência pode acarretar em danos ao ecossistema, muitas vezes, irreversíveis. A partir deste, esse trabalho objetiva compreender a dinâmica espaço temporal do uso e cobertura das terras nas microrregiões que compõem a região MATOPIBA, no período de 1985 a 2019. Com base nos dados de estrutura florestal, obtidos na plataforma do projeto MapBiomas (mapbiomas.org/estatísticas), realizou-se a distribuição dos 337 municípios que compõem a área de estudo em 5 grupos e posteriormente aplicou-se teste de homogeneidade de Pettitt e testes não paramétricos de Mann-Kendall e Sen’s, para compreensão de uma possível dinâmica de tendência no período de 1985-2019. Diante dos métodos aplicados, identificou-se que os anos de 2001 e 2002 marcam uma quebra na série histórica, indicando tendência de perda de cobertura nativa e ainda, que Tocantins foi o estado de maior perda, coincidindo com o período de expansão da soja. Com base nisso, conclui-se que os métodos estatísticos aplicados foram eficazes na distribuição das microrregiões e determinação de tendências de redução de vegetação, proporcionando uma maior interpretação de uma série longa de dados.

Authors: ÖZDEN Fatih , UYSAL İsmail , TÜMTÜRK İsmet , IMERCİ Ahmet 
Published: January 2024

Purpose: The aim of the study was to investigate the effect of ankle distortion taping on balance, gait, function, spasticity and quality of life in cerebral palsy cases with varus deformity.
Methods: A two-armed randomized controlled trial was carried out in rehabilitation center. A total of 32 children with CP were randomized into taping (TG) and conventional therapy group (CG). The children in the TG group were given distortion taping for 3 days in addition to CG. Participants were assessed before the treatment, in the immediate period after the first session, and in the acute period after the third session. The Timed Up and Go Test (TUG), Single Leg Stance Test (SLST), Modified Ashworth Scale (MAS), Wisconsin Gait Scale (WGS), and Child Health Questionnaire (CHQ) were used to evaluate clinical data.
Results: The mean ages of the children in CG and TG were 9.62±2.50 and 10.0±1.63, respectively. Plantar flexor muscle spasticity decreased significantly in individuals with TG (p=0.0001). TUG and SLST scores improved significantly in the TG group (p=0.0001). There was a statistically significant difference in both in and between-group evaluations of WGS (p0.05).
Conclusion: The results showed the effectiveness of distortion taping in reducing the spasticity of ankle plantar flexor muscles and improving function, balance and gait. However, taping was not superior to conventional rehabilitation.
