The result shows that even though the cat has a bad and annoying attitudes towards Coraline, after she met the cat and having several conversations, there is a change in her mind about the point of view of the Other World so she could decide what to do in order to save not only herself but also the cat, her parents and the ghost children’s souls from the Beldam. The existence of a character with moral ambiguity is unusual in children’s literature which mostly have obvious narratives about polarity; nevertheless, the cat’s presence in Coraline has a significant role because not only guiding Coraline but also an illustration of not every people with bad attitude is an evil people; even though the cat has moral ambiguity in its character it accommodated Coraline in escaping from the Beldam.

Poverty and the Poor in the Media Discourse in Poland: Compassion or Blame?

The purpose of this article is to show how poverty and the people who experience it are presented by various media (press, television programmes, etc.) in Poland. Referring to research and media analyses of the representation of this phenomenon, attempts were made to reveal the causes and valuations attributed to it. The media discourse on poverty shapes and proliferates social perceptions about it. It is crucial because it influences how fellow citizens treat the poor and policies aimed at minimising this phenomenon. Two dominant mass media narratives about those affected by poverty can be divided as follows: 1) the deserving poor worthy of support because their poverty is due to external sources beyond their power, and 2) the undeserving poor, who are themselves responsible for their material situation due to bad attitudes, habits, and deviant behaviours.

Drivers of household antibiotic use in urban informal settlements in Northern Ghana: Implications for antimicrobial resistance control.

Urban informal settlements have been described as the epicenters of frequent antibiotic misuse, which has local and global consequences on the goals of antimicrobial stewardship. The aim of this study was to assess the relationship between knowledge, attitude, and practices of antibiotic use among households in urban informal settlements in the Tamale metropolis of Ghana. This study was a prospective cross-sectional survey of the two major informal settlements in the Tamale metropolis, namely Dungu-Asawaba and Moshie Zongo. In all, 660 households were randomly selected for this study. Households with an adult and at least a child under 5 years old were randomly chosen. An adult with knowledge of household healthcare practices was selected to respond to a structured questionnaire. In all, 291 (44.1%) of the 660 households reported taking at least one type of antibiotic within the last month before the study and 30.9% (204/660) had used antibiotics without a prescription. Information on which antibiotics to use was obtained mostly from friends/family members 50 (24.5%) and were commonly purchased from a medical store or a pharmacy 84 (41.2%), saved up from a previously used antibiotic 46 (22.5%), a friend/family members 38 (18.6%), and drug hawkers 30 (14.7%). Amoxicillin 95 (26.0%) was the most frequently used antibiotic and the commonest indication for antibiotics use was diarrhea 136 (37.9%). Female respondents (odds ratio [OR] = 3.07; 95% confidence interval [CI] = 2.199-4.301; p < 0.0001), larger households (OR = 2.02; 95% CI = 1.337-3.117; p = 0.0011) and those with highermonthly household income (OR = 3.39; 95% CI = 1.945-5.816; p < 0.0001) were more likely to have good knowledge of appropriate antibiotic use and antibiotic resistance. Furthermore, bad attitudes influenced participants' use of antibiotics without prescription (OR = 2.41; 95% CI = 0.432-4.05; p = 0.0009). This study exposes the drivers of inappropriate use of antibiotics at the household level, particularly in urban informal settlements. Policy interventions aimed at controlling the indiscriminate use of antibiotics in such settlements could improve the responsible use of antibiotics. Keywords: antibiotic resistance, informal settlements, Tamale, Ghana.

Loose Attitudes: Politics of Self-Knowledge in Our Bodies, Ourselves and The House of God.

Readers of Samuel Shem's medical satire The House of God (1978) have long worried about the bad attitude of his main characters: young male internal medicine trainees. This article examines the interns' atrocious affections, using the feminist classic Our Bodies, Ourselves (1973) as a counterweight to the masculinist perspective of House of God. These radically different critiques of United States medicine derive from a shared sociopolitical context and represent a historically specific response to the personal politics of sexual liberation and self-actualization in the 1970s. I show that Shem and the Boston Women's Health Book Collective share a rhetorical strategy of "loose expertise" grounded in embodied knowledge, which connects both texts to the radical social movements of the late 1960s. Loose expertise enables institutional critique by shifting the domain of knowledge away from traditional structures of authority, but inhibits intersectional critique by essentializing the individual subject position of the author. The article concludes by examining the relationship of both texts to the medical humanities.

Revisiting the demeanour effect: a video-observational analysis of encounters between law enforcement officers and citizens in Amsterdam

ABSTRACT We investigate the ‘demeanour hypothesis’, stating that police officers are more likely to arrest and use force against citizens who display a ‘bad attitude’. We observed 78 encounters captured on surveillance cameras in the city of Amsterdam. Video material allowed us to code specific behaviours (‘citizen pointed at officer’) instead of the more ambiguous interpretation of behaviour (‘citizen was disrespectful’) used in prior studies. We employ two regression analyses to estimate the extent to which different types of citizens’ behaviour – ‘bad attitude’, non-compliance, and aggression and crime – relate to physical coercive behaviour by law enforcement agents. After controlling for non-compliant, aggressive and criminal behaviours, as well as situational and individual features, citizens’ ‘bad attitude’ behaviours remain associated with physical coercion. However, our data also shows that the effects of aggressive and criminal behaviours are far stronger than that of ‘bad attitude’ behaviours. Yet, there is an observable ‘demeanour effect’ in our sample. Conceptually, we provide a more thorough behavioural description of what a ‘bad attitude’ looks like. Practically, our findings can be used in training, such as scenario or VR training, in order to raise officers’ awareness of citizens’ behaviours, and may assist them to prevent escalation in their encounters with the public.

Konsekuensi Berlebihan dalam Beragama Perspektif Tafsir Al-Qur’an: Sebuah Kajian Tematik

This study aims to explain and reveal verses related to Extremism (ghuluw) in religion and its consequences from the perspective of Tafsir Al-Qur'anul Majid An-Nur by M. Hasbi Ash-Shiddieqy. This study used a qualitative approach using content analysis methods. Ghuluw is an attitude of extremism in religion. Phenomena that often occur in social life. The ghuluw attitude is not liked by Allah SWT. Because it has exceeded the limit that has been determined by Allah through Islamic religious shari'ah. In the Al-Qur'an there are two words ghuluw in the form of a command verb (fi'il amr) which indicates a prohibition (nahyi) in Q.S An-Nisa verse 171 and Al-Midah 77, which aims His people to avoid bad attitudes rebuked by Allah SWT. This study concludes that ghuluw is an attitude that prioritizes passions and overrides reason. Whereas ghuluw in religion means a careless attitude that tends to be excessive in religion falsely. This attitude is not prescribed and is not justified in religion. This attitude has very dangerous consequences, including the cause of disbelief and being kept away from the grace of Allah SWT.

Peran Penting Keluarga dalam Perkembangan Sosioemosional pada Anak Usia Dini

&#x0D; Every child experiences development in his life according to his age. The success of children in achieving developmental goals is supported by several internal and external factors, including parenting style factors, family roles and functions, support from the environment outside the home and school and so on. Early childhood is the most rapid period of child development, especially in terms of socio-emotional development. This period is usually considered the golden period, which is the most valuable age compared to other ages. Therefore the role of the family, especially parents is very decisive. In this period, a character can grow because it receives the right motivation, and similarly if the motivation given is bad it will also create bad traits, because during this period a spontaneous attitude develops which cannot distinguish between good and bad attitudes.&#x0D; Keywords: Family; Socioemotional Development; Early Childhood
