On the nonlinear relationships between shadow economy and the three pillars of sustainable development: new evidence from panel threshold analysis
Authors: Saafi Sami , Nouira Ridha , Assidi Nadia 
Published: July 2022

Abstract
Most previous studies that examined the relationship between the size of shadow economy and the pillars of sustainable development maintained that this relationship is linear. This paper provides an empirical contribution to the literature by arguing that this relationship is likely to be nonlinear, and it might be subject to threshold effects. For this purpose, in addition to the static threshold panel model of Hansen (1999. “Threshold Effects in Non-dynamic Panels: Estimation, Testing, and Inference.” Journal of Econometrics 93 (2): 345–68), the dynamic panel threshold model suggested by Seo and Shin (2016. “Dynamic Panels with Threshold Effect and Endogeneity.” Journal of Econometrics 195 (2): 169–86) has been applied to a larger panel-data set covering 83 developed and developing countries over the 1996–2017 period. Empirical results from both models yield evidence advocating the existence of threshold effects of the shadow economy on the economic, social, and environmental dimensions of sustainable development for the global sample as well as the sub-samples of developed and developing countries. Moreover, for the global sample and developing countries, our findings show that shadow economy would spoil the three sustainable development pillars only when its size exceeds a certain threshold critical size. While, the impact for developed countries was found negative even for low levels of underground activities. These finding are shown to be robust to alternative proxies for the size of the shadow economy and have important policy implications, especially for developing countries. In these countries, a moderate size of the shadow economy might have positive spillovers on long-term growth and sustainable development. Our research also suggests that, for developing and developed countries to achieve sustainable goal 8.3, the extent of the shadow activities should be taken into account.

AbstractDespite numerous remarkable developments in clinical therapy, the world remains firmly in the grip of fungal infections. While conventional approaches to antifungal therapy are failing, dermatophytes continue to affect people’s daily lives, especially in humid and tropical areas, and pose a major medical problem. Cubosomes, the liquid crystalline nanostructures, are among the recently developed lipid nanoparticles that could potentially overcome the hurdles of conventional therapy. In the present study, cubosomes containing luliconazole, an antifungal drug, were formulated to overcome the limitation of poor water solubility and poor bioavailability of the drug for the main purpose of treating fungal infections. Various formulations of luliconazole loaded cubosomes were prepared with different ratios of lipid (glyceryl monooleate) and surfactant (poloxamer 407) using emulsification method. The prepared formulations were optimised and the optimised cubosomal dispersion was loaded into a carbomer-934 gel to form an emulsifying gel. All cubosomal dispersions had particle sizes ranging from 124 nm to 221.1 nm, optimal zeta potential and polydispersity index, and were found to be stable. The drug entrapment efficiency of the cubosomes was over 90%. Thein vitrodiffusion study showed that the developed formulation had a higher release rate than the marketed formulation. Thein vitroantifungal activity study confirmed that the prepared emulsion formulation was also effective againstCandida albicans. The novel drug delivery system developed in this study, the cubosomal emulgel, could thus be a favourable approach for the topical delivery of luliconazole for the treatment of fungal infections.
No Evidence that Strict Educational Tracking Improves Student Performance through Classroom Homogeneity: A Critical Reanalysis of Esser and Seuring (2020)
Authors: Heisig Jan Paul , Matthewes Sönke Hendrik 
Published: July 2022

Abstract
In a recent contribution to this journal, Esser and Seuring (2020) draw on data from the National Educational Panel Study to attack the widespread view that tracking in lower secondary education exacerbates inequalities in student outcomes without improving average student performance. Exploiting variation in the strictness of tracking across 13 of the 16 German federal states (e. g., whether teacher recommendations are binding), Esser and Seuring claim to demonstrate that stricter tracking after grade 4 results in better performance in grade 7 and that this can be attributed to the greater homogeneity of classrooms under strict tracking. We show these conclusions to be untenable: Esser and Seuring’s measures of classroom composition are highly dubious because the number of observed students is very small for many classrooms. Even when we adopt their classroom composition measures, simple corrections and extensions of their analysis reveal that there is no meaningful evidence for a positive relationship between classroom homogeneity and student achievement – the channel supposed to mediate the alleged positive effect of strict tracking. We go on to show that students from more strictly tracking states perform better already at the start of tracking (grade 5), which casts further doubt on the alleged positive effect of strict tracking on learning progress and leaves selection or anticipation effects as more plausible explanations. On a conceptual level, we emphasize that Esser and Seuring’s analysis is limited to states that implement different forms of early tracking and cannot inform us about the relative performance of comprehensive and tracked systems that is the focus of most prior research.
Genossenschaften von Solo-Selbstständigen als neue Arbeitsmarktorganisationen
Authors: Apitzsch Birgit , Ruiner Caroline 
Published: July 2022

Zusammenfassung
Genossenschaften erfahren in jüngster Zeit in ihrem empirischen Auftreten und als Forschungsgegenstand eine Renaissance. Dieser Beitrag exploriert Genossenschaften von und für Solo-Selbstständige als neue Arbeitsmarktorganisationen. Ziel ist es, zu erfassen, wie Genossenschaften als Organisationstyp Mobilität organisieren und welche Organisationsdynamiken damit verbunden sind. In einem Vergleich zweier Fälle aus IT und Medizin werden Genossenschaften über die zentralen Organisationsmerkmale Ziel, Mitgliedschaft und Struktur bestimmt und es wird ihre Rolle auf dem Arbeitsmarkt diskutiert. Genossenschaften mit dem Ziel der solidarischen Organisation von Mobilität von Solo-Selbstständigen können als Hybride zwischen Interessenvertretungs- und Vermittlungsorganisationen gesehen werden, die sich in der sozialen Integration ihrer Mitglieder von anderen Arbeitsmarktorganisationen und sozialen Netzwerken unterscheiden. Mit der Analyse wird ein Beitrag zur empirischen Erforschung von Genossenschaften sowie zu ihrer organisationssoziologischen Einordnung geleistet.
Bildungsvorstellungen im sozialen Wandel – eine Kohortenanalyse für die Bundesrepublik Deutschland in der Zeit von 1958 bis 2018
Authors: Becker Rolf , Gilgen Sandra , Anhalt Elmar 
Published: July 2022

Zusammenfassung
Ziel der vorliegenden Kohortenanalyse ist es, die frühere Studie von Meulemann (1982) über den Wandel von Bildungsvorstellungen in der Bevölkerung zu replizieren. Hierbei wird seine implizite These, die Bildungsexpansion seit den 1960er Jahren sei verantwortlich für den sozialen Wandel subjektiver Interpretationen sowohl von Bildungschancen als auch von Wert, Inhalt und Zielen der Bildung gewesen direkt überprüft. Dazu werden zwei Zeitdimensionen – historische Periode und Abfolge von Geburtskohorten – berücksichtigt und neben den ursprünglich verwendeten Datensätzen auch aktuelle Daten analysiert. Zudem werden zusätzliche erklärende Argumente eingeführt. Für einen Zeitraum von 60 Jahren werden periodenspezifische und kohortendifferenzierende Effekte der Bildungsexpansion auf die subjektive Wahrnehmung von Bildung aufgedeckt. Bildungschancen werden trotz gestiegener Bildungsgelegenheiten zunehmend kritischer von den jüngeren Kohorten beurteilt. Die meritokratischen Spielregeln werden weiterhin akzeptiert, jedoch bezweifeln jüngere Kohorten zunehmend, dass Bildung der Weg zum sozialen Aufstieg ist. Schließlich unterliegen auch die schulischen Erziehungsziele einem sukzessiven Wertewandel.
“The Social Antagonism between Whiteness and Antiracism: How and Why White Antiracists lose their Whiteness”
Authors: Hughey Matthew W. , Schmitt Mark 
Published: July 2022

AbstractThis article depicts two cases of “lost Whiteness” and unintentional racial “passing.” Based on years of ethnographic research, we present the story of two White people who – largely because of their truly-determined commitment to racial justice activism – were thought by others as being or becoming Persons of Color. These activists were not trying to pass. Rather, they are manifestations of a “reverse racial pass,” defined as “any instance in which a person legally recognized as white effectively functions as a non-white person in any quarter of the social arena” (Harper 1998: 382). These two cases illumine the relationships between the ongoing, negotiated process of racial identity formation and antiracist activism in the United States. We argue that Whiteness and antiracism are enmeshed in a paradoxical dynamic: Social emphases on antiracist activism enabled the reception of White activists as People of Color, while conversely, emphases on activists’ Whiteness enabled observers to doubt both their moral commitments and intellectual prowess toward antiracist activism. This dynamic gestures toward the necessity to examine the symbolic and discursive factors undergirding the social construction of “race”, which in turn destabilizes both layperson and scholarly focus on physical appearance and racialization.
Compulsive Sexual Behavior Disorder should not be classified by solely relying on component/symptomatic features •

Published: July 2022

Abstract
The paper by Sassover and Weinstein (2022) contributes to a timely and complex debate related to the classification of Compulsive Sexual Behavior Disorder (CSBD). The recent inclusion of CSBD as an impulse-control disorder in the ICD-11 has generated debate since a competitive view is that CSBD should rather be classified as an addictive disorder. Sassover and Weinstein (2022) reviewed existing evidence and concluded it does not support the conceptualization of CSBD as an addictive disorder. Although we agree regarding the relevance and timely nature of considering the classification of CSBD, we respectfully disagree with the position that relying on the components model of addiction (Griffiths, 2005) is the optimal approach for determining whether or not CSBD is an addictive disorder. In this commentary, we discuss potential pitfalls of relying on the components model to conceptualize CSBD as an addictive disorder and argue that considering a process-based approach is important for advancing this timely debate.
SAINDO DA “TORRE DE MARFIM”: A PREVENÇÃO DE VIOLÊNCIA CONTRA A POPULAÇÃO LGBTQIAPN+ NA UNIVERSIDADE
Authors: Perassoli Enayton , Silva Alexandre Rodrigo Nishiwaki da 
Published: July 2022

A violência contra a população LGBTQIAPN+ é um tema que assola inúmeras pessoas que não se enquadram no padrão cisheteronormativo estabelecido socialmente. Estudos indicam que a universidade, estando inserida na sociedade, reproduz essa forma de violência ao não criar estratégias de prevenção e superação efetivas deste fenômeno em seu interior. Amparado pela aprendizagem dialógica e a Metodologia Comunicativa, o presente artigo apresenta os resultados de uma investigação que procurou apontar, a partir da compreensão de 18 estudantes de graduação, o modo como uma universidade pública do estado de São Paulo atua no combate ao preconceito baseado na diversidade sexual e de gênero em seus espaços, identificando os elementos excludentes e transformadores que sejam capazes de promover, prevenir e superar a violência contra pessoas LGBTQIAPN+. Como resultados principais, esta pesquisa indica que o posicionamento público da gestão dessas universidades, o estabelecimento de políticas de combate à violência, bem como a construção de espaços formativos sobre a temática para discentes, docentes e demais funcionários e funcionárias em todo o âmbito acadêmico, propiciam um ambiente mais acolhedor, respeitoso e livre de qualquer forma de preconceito contra essa população em questão.

Introduction. Currently, endothelial dysfunction caused by inflammation and immunothrombosisis considered as one of the crucial mechanisms in developing the SARS-CoV-2 virus-mediated coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). A mass endothelial damage followed by release of untypical large quantity of von Willebrand factor (vWF) multimers and subsequent consumption of metalloproteinase ADAMTS-13 (a disintegrin and metalloproteinase with a thrombospondin type 1 motif, member 13) is described during severe COVID-19. The activation of innate immune cells including neutrophils results in formation of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) and myeloperoxidase (MPO) release that, in turn, contributes to spread of inflammation and microvascular thrombosis.Aim: to evaluate a pathogenetic role and predictive significance for serum markers of inflammation, endothelial dysfunction and hemostatis activation such as vWF, ADAMTS-13 and MPO for in-hospital mortality in severe COVID-19 patients requiring mechanical lung ventilation.Materials and Methods. There was performed a single-center observational study with 129 severe COVID-19 patients on mechanical lung ventilation at the intensive care unit, by assessing serum in all subjects vWF, ADAMTS-13 as well as in 79 patients MPO level along with other potential predictors for in-hospital mortality.Results. A multivariate analysis revealed that increased serum level for vWF antigen (vWF:Ag) and MPO antigen (MPO:Ag) were significantly and independently related to high mortality probability: vWF:Ag (IU/ml) – adjusted odds ratio (OR) = 3.360; 95 % confidence interval (95 % Cl) = 1.562–7,228 (р = 0,0019); MPO:Ag (ng/ml) – adjusted OR = 1.062; 95 % = 1.024–1.101 (p = 0.0011). Such data allowed to obtained a simplified mortality score for categorizing patients as those having a higher or lower score compared with the median score level: a high score was associated with lower cumulative survival rate (p < 0.0001), with 50 % of the cases linked to lethal outcome on day 13 post-hospital admission.Conclusion. Severe COVID-19 patients requiring mechanical lung ventilation were found to have elevated level of serum MPO activity and vWF correlating with poor survival.
Intrapreneurs: Essential to Building Healthy Academic Communities
Authors: Yashin-Shaw Irena , Morrison-Beedy Dianne 
Published: July 2022

Background: Intrapreneurialism is emerging as a powerful force for enhancing organizational transformation and viability in a post-pandemic world. It is the enfranchisement and empowerment of people, liberating them to engage their enterprising talent in the service of creating value for the benefit of the organization (Yashin-Shaw, 2018).
Aim: For the purposes of this article, the notion of a healthy academic community refers to the long-term viability, robustness, and relevance of the institution. Being able to foster future success in the face of exponential change is a hallmark of a resilient organization (Duchek, 2020). In this sense, a healthy academic community is one where the institution and its stakeholders can thrive in the face of unprecedented disruptive change and unexpected conditions by adapting appropriately (Burnard, Bhamra, & Tsinopoulos, 2018). The traditional form and function of higher education are being challenged as new technologies are democratizing access to knowledge, learning, and credentialing. A diversity of higher education options have emerged for students beyond the traditional university (Marshall, 2018). Such challenges can pose an existential threat to universities.
Results: How can academic communities thrive in the face of these rapid changes? The answer is to liberate and engage the enterprising talent of staff, students, faculty, and the extended community associated with the institution, whether local or global, physical or virtual. Enterprising employees, who think and act like entrepreneurs, are called intrapreneurs.
Conclusion: By embracing and supporting intrapreneurs at all levels, academic communities will be well placed to flourish in the new post-pandemic world.
Improving the effectiveness of socialization work in the field of education: A case study in Vietnam for the period 1997-2021
Authors: Mai Quoc Dung  , Nguyen Phuoc Trong  
Published: July 2022

From a country that subsidizes all areas of social life, non-state actors are not allowed to participate in providing social services. However, after 1986, Vietnam entered the Innovate period, all sectors were able to participate in social services, including education.
Socialization in the field of education, which is a major policy of the State of Vietnam, has initially achieved certain results in mobilizing social resources to meet the increasing needs of the people. However, in fact, this field still has many limitations and obstacles, one of the basic and important reasons is that the awareness of socialization in the field of education still has inconsistent and inconsistent contents transparently at all levels, sectors as well as the whole society. Using qualitative research methods, this article will briefly outline the entire socialization work in the education sector in Vietnam, from which there are suggestions to promote the effectiveness of this work.

Published: July 2022

This research discusses the influence or role of religion and culture on students' attitudes in learning science. The mixed method used in this study is a sequential explanatory approach. The sample in this study used the purposive sampling technique and 6474 students were selected. The instruments in this study are attitude questionnaires and in-depth interviews on culture and religion. Data analysis was carried out in the form of descriptive statistical analysis. Then, the qualitative data were analysed in several stages, namely data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. Based on the results of interviews and data collection that has been carried out and the discussion described above, it can be concluded that students' attitudes towards science have relevance to cultural aspects that exist in their daily life environment and students' attitudes towards science also have a close relationship with religious aspects that was adopted them. This result is certainly very positive for the affective and religious development of students which of course has an impact on how they interact with fellow humans in the school environment and others.
