Acting in action: Prosodic analysis of character portrayal during acting.

During the process of acting, actors have to embody the characters that they are portraying by changing their vocal and gestural features to match standard conceptions of the characters. In this experimental study of acting, we had professional actors portray a series of stock characters (e.g., king, bully, lover), which were organized according to a predictive scheme based on the 2 orthogonal personality dimensions of assertiveness and cooperativeness. We measured 12 prosodic features of the actors' vocal productions, as related to pitch, loudness, timbre, and duration/timing. The results showed a significant effect of character assertiveness on all 12 vocal parameters, but a weaker effect of cooperativeness on fewer vocal parameters. These findings comprise the first experimental analysis of vocal gesturing during character portrayal in actors and demonstrate that actors reliably manipulate prosodic cues in a contrastive manner to differentiate characters based on their personality traits.

Observed Personality in Preschool: Associations with Current and Longitudinal Symptoms.

Personality is consistently associated with psychopathology across the lifespan. However, little is known of how observed personality dimensions in preschoolers are associated with concurrent or longitudinal symptoms across development. Spectrum, vulnerability, and pathopolasty models theorize how child personality and psychopathology are related across development. The current study tests these three models using observationally coded personality dimensions in a longitudinal sample of preschoolers. A validated 'thin slice' technique was used to code observed Five Factor Model (FFM) personality dimensions of extraversion, agreeableness, conscientiousness, neuroticism, and openness to experience in a clinically enriched preschool sample oversampled for depression (N = 299). Children were followed longitudinally for 9years while assessing dimensional psychological symptoms and global functioning. Longitudinal multilevel models testing the spectrum, or shared underlying factor model, indicated depressive symptoms in adolescence were predicted by higher preschool extraversion and lower agreeableness and conscientiousness, externalizing symptoms were predicted by lower agreeableness and higher neuroticism, and worse global functioning was predicted by higher extraversion and neuroticism, and lower agreeableness and conscientiousness. Some associations held after accounting for the influence of baseline psychological symptoms, indicating support for a vulnerability relationship between personality and later psychopathology. No support was demonstrated for pathoplasty models such that personality did not influence the developmental course or change of psychopathology over time. Findings indicate personality dimensions measured as early as the preschool period prospectively impact psychopathology and functioning across child development, demonstrating support for both a spectrum and vulnerability relationship between youth personality and psychopathology.

The regional brand: collective image consciousness in Africa and Southeast Asia

States in the same region are bound together by the ways in which the world imagines them as a collective. One distinguishing feature of post-Cold War regionalism is its outward orientation – the importance of the external dimension of regional cooperation. By and large, though, existing analysis of regional institutional development in the Global South does not explicitly conceptualise and theorise collective image consciousness and management. This paper works to address this conceptual gap. Making use of two cases of regional image crisis – post-1980s Africa and post-1997 Southeast Asia – it draws out two primary logics of regional image consciousness: the logic of influence and the logic of resources. A region’s ‘brand’ with respect to (dys)function and international norm (non-)compliance matters to regional actors because it affects the region’s political influence in international arenas and the region’s ability to attract resources from donors and investors.

Introduction: Trends, Patterns and Challenges for International Cooperation in Cyberspace

The article introduces the main topics that this thematic issue covers. It highlights the emerging patterns of cooperation in cyberspace that have been identified by individual contributors, including at the national levels and in the working of the regional organizations. While various contributions in this thematic issue deal with different dimensions of international cooperation (e.g. legal, normative, political), this article demonstrates that they are all representative of major trends in cyberspace development, provide a valuable illustration of the patterns that we observe in the rapidly evolving digital environment, and highlight very similar challenges when it comes to finding sustainable and workable solutions that contribute to peace and stability in cyberspace.

Palárik’s Liberal-Reform Concept of Addressing the Slovak Issue

The Catholic priest, journalist, political analyst and playwright Ján Palárik was also involved in the Slovak national-awareness process in the 19th century. In the context of the Slovak political thinking, he is known as the founding personality of the liberal project of addressing the Slovak issue. This paper deals with three levels of this project. The first level concerns his liberal concept of the Slovak national politics. This concept was developed on the background of the liberal theory of the relationship between freedom and law as developed by the French philosopher Ch. Montesquieu. The basis of the second level of this project was in the differentiation in the ranks of the Catholic clergy, which manifested itself in the spring of 1848 in the Habsburg monarchy. Palárik developed the requirement that the Catholic priests could actively participate in public and political life in the interest of the Church, the faith, the believers and to develop the idea of religious ecumenism. The third level concerned the democratization of the Slavic ideology in Slovakia and Historic Hungary. His reform efforts aimed at removing from this idea a negative label of “Russian Panslavism” while at the same time gaining the dimension of realistic inter-Slavic cooperation.

"Mutual sharing" - master and student in the individual and common scientific world

The article is an analysis of the master-student relationship in the dimension of academic cooperation. We attempt to diagnose the current situation from the perspective of young scientists and identify good practices in the form of potentially supporting activities for their development. We appeal, among others to the term "mutual sharing" as a key factor for the development of a mutually enriching relationship. The issues raised in the project are a response to changes taking place in the modern world, which shape the need to verify and update the perception of the master's definition and the specificity of his relationship with the student, so that it corresponds to current needs.

Application of nurse-led management in the quality of nursing safety of patients in Transition of CCU

Objective To study the application of nurse-led management in the nursing safety quality of CCU transition patients. Methods The control group of 60 patients who were transferred to the general ward after CCU treatment in Wuhan University Renmin hospital from October to December 2017 was selected, and 60 patients from January to March 2018 were set as the experimental groups. The control group carried out routine nursing, and the experimental group adopted nursing leading management model to carry out nursing intervention. To observe and compare the quality of nursing safety, quality of life and satisfaction of patients before and after intervention. Results The nursing safety incidents, nursing gaps and CCU return rates of control group patients were 13.33%(8/60),23.33%(14/60) and 11.67%(7/60), respectively. For the experimental group patients, they were 3.33%(3/60),8.33%(8/60) and 3.33%(2/60), respectively. The difference was statistically significant (χ2= 4.415, 4.582, 4.312, P<0.05). After the intervention, the quality of life of the patients improved significantly. The conditions of physical function, emotional function, social function and overall quality of life of the control group were 56.07 ± 4.42, 66.62 ± 1.89, 56.34 ± 4.31, and 61.26 ± 4.15, respectively. For the experimental group, they were 71.88 ± 4.67, 73.52 ± 4.28, 63.94 ± 4.12, and 74.62±4.02, respectively. The difference was statistically significant(t=7.657-16.892, P<0.01). After the intervention, the patient's satisfaction also increased significantly. The control group′s psychological support dimension, cooperation dimension, and safety dimension were 7.96 ± 0.86, 7.39 ± 0.61, and 7.63 ± 0.16, respectively. For the experimental group, they were 9.56 ± 0.41, 9.08 ± 0.56, 9.21 ± 0.33, respectively. The difference between the two groups was statistically significant(t= 7.632, 9.116, 7.562, P<0.01) . Conclusion Nurse-led management can effectively improve the quality of care safety, quality of life and satisfaction of CCU transition patients, reduce the return rate of CCU, and provide clinical reference for safe care of CCU transition patients. Key words: Nurses in charge of management; CCU transition period; Nursing safety quality

BRICS countries’ strategies in the Arctic and the prospects for consolidated BRICS agenda in the Arctic

ABSTRACT The paper examines Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa (BRICS) countries’ growing interests in the Arctic and explores the current state, as well as prospects for BRICS cooperation in the Arctic. Against the background of a complex situation in the world arena and changes in the political landscape in some of BRICS countries, the importance of developing new dimensions of cooperation to solidify this grouping are very high on the BRICS agenda. Given the recent intensification of BRICS countries’ activities in the Arctic (with the exception of South Africa, which is disengaged in the Arctic affairs), the article aims to study the feasibility of BRICS cooperation in the Arctic and elaboration of the BRICS’ Arctic agenda as the grouping. Although BRICS countries have very different Arctic identities, different status in the Arctic governance, and they are at different stages of their engagement with the Arctic region, still these five countries on several occasions discussed plans for cooperation on polar issues and the Arctic. The article gives an analysis of the interests and strategies of Russia and non-Arctic BRICS countries in the Arctic; it discusses the background, existing forms – bilateral and multilateral – of cooperation between the BRICS countries, potential venues for cooperation in the Arctic between the BRICS countries and within BRICS as a grouping, limitations and barriers to BRICS cooperation in the Arctic.

Specification of the data warehouse for the decision-making dimension of the Bid Process Information System

In order to enhance the business process, the Bid Process Information System (BPIS) should be made more performant by ensuring greater flexibility and interoperability between devices. Moreover, the specication of this system has to deal with “three fit” problems. To this end, four dimensions have been identified in order to cope with potential failures: operational, organizational, decision-making, and cooperative dimensions. In this paper, we focus on the decision-making dimension of the BPIS and propose an approach for representing data warehouse schema based on an ontology that captures the multidimensional bid-knowledge.

Characteristics of the decision-making dimension of the BPIS

“Three fit” problems in the Bid Process Information System (BPIS) are still an open issue. The BPIS must be: integrated, flexible and interoperable in order to deal with the urbanization approach. Hence, operational, organizational, decision-making, and coop-erative dimensions are four dimensions that have been identified to deal with such failures. Accordingly, we propose an approach that focuses on the decision-making dimension of the BPIS. In addition, it represents data warehouse schema based on an ontology in order to capture the multidimensional bid-knowledge. This improves the resulting of data warehouse schema.

Viewing the Anti-Social Personality Transformation of School Bullying Victims from the Perspective of Experimental Analysis

School bullying is on the rise around the world. The phenomenon of school bullying is a microcosm of the social environment, which means that the bullying phenomenon in the school can be magnified to the whole society, inducing and presenting as a crime, so it must be studied, controlled and prevented. In this paper, horizontal and vertical comparisons were made in the three dimensions of bullies, victims and irrelevant personnel, so as to study and analyze the psychological status of victims by means of scale measurement, and then reveal the relationship between victims and their own anti-social personality. Students from three different middle schools in X city, S Province were randomly selected as the research objects, who had finished the questionnaires of Middle School Bullying Questionnaire, Chinese Big Five Personality Inventory Brief Version, and Anti-social Screening Questionnaire Self-evaluation version. The current bullying situations were obtained through data analysis; significant differences were found in the dimensions of neuroticism, conscientiousness, agreeableness, and extraversion among bullies, victims, and non-bullied; therefore, it was concluded that the bullying victims and their anti-social behavior tendencies were in positive correlation; school bullying had severe impacts on the social activities and personality formations of the victims. The results have provided the theoretical basis for the research on personality building of adolescent victims of school bullying.

Emotional Processing and Personality as Predictors of Obsessive-compulsive Symptoms in College Students.

The categorical definition of obsessive-compulsive disorder, and exclusive focus on thoughts and behaviors, have constrained the study and treatment of its symptoms. The present study's aim was to search for relationships among emotional processing dimensions, five major personality dimensions, and self-perceived obsessive-compulsive symptoms. The participants were 100 college students, and the questionnaires used were a selection of images from the International Affective Picture System (IAPS), the Self-assessment Manikin (SAM), the Dimensional Obsessive-Compulsive Scale (DOCS), and the NEO-FFI. We found differences in emotional processing dimensions between participants with high and low DOCS scores, grouped according to sex (d = .56); and evidence that the neuroticism and agreeableness dimensions predict self-perceived obsessive-compulsive symptoms. Emotional processing dimensions and personality are considered useful to comprehending obsessive-compulsive symptoms, which lends support to dimensional models of OC symptomatology, as well as planning and developing psychological interventions.

Joint ventures on the air transport market – a new dimension of cooperation

Strategic partnership based on cooperation, as part of strategic alliances and other cooperation agreements, has its history in the aviation sector. The processes of cooperation and consolidation decide about the competitiveness of entities from this sector in the global aviation market. This applies not only to airlines, but also airports constituting the infrastructure entities of this sector. The article points to new trends in the construction of partnerships, blurring relations in alliances and wider cooperation of airlines based on joint venture agreements. The development of joint ventures in aviation changes the structure of the aviation market, the conditions of competition, and also changes the strength and depth of existing cooperation within alliances. It re-evaluates their importance in obtaining competitive advantages on the market.

Exploring the impact of IS function maturity and IS planning process on IS planning success: an ACE analysis

ABSTRACTWe examine the impact of information system (IS) function maturity and IS planning process on IS planning success in an exploratory approach. We conducted non-linear regression analysis using the Alternating Conditional Expectations algorithm, and found significant non-linear relationships between the dimensions of IS function maturity/IS planning process and those of IS planning success. We also visualised how various IS planning success measures can evolve with low or high values of determinant variables. We used four dimensions of capabilities, analysis, cooperation, and alignment to evaluate IS planning success. We also employed four dimensions to analyse each of IS function maturity and IS planning process. IS function maturity consists of IT planning mode, IT integration, IT industry practice, and IT perspective. On the other hand, IS planning process is composed of long-range planning, medium-range managerial planning, short-range operational planning, and organisational IT potential.

Proposta de indicadores de cooperação na gestão compartilhada de resíduos sólidos

A Política Nacional de Resíduos Sólidos (BRASIL, 2010) orienta que governos, empresas e sociedade civil se responsabilizem cooperativamente pelos planos de gerenciamento. Nesse sentido, o trabalho que segue tem como intuito propor um instrumento integrado de avaliação para mensurar e classificar o grau de cooperação entre atores envolvidos na gestão compartilhada de resíduos sólidos. Baseando-se num cruzamento entre a literatura sobre cooperação na gestão pública e os debates teóricos e legais sobre a questão dos resíduos sólidos, foram elaborados 19 indicadores divididos em quatro dimensões da cooperação: cognitiva, operacional, relacional e político-institucional, utilizáveis tanto para avaliação em níveis locais de gestão (municípios, microrregiões, etc.) quanto para avaliação dos responsáveis (atores governamentais, atores sociais e atores econômicos). Os indicadores propostos fornecem aos gestores uma visão mais clara sobre a estrutura de gestão compartilhada de resíduos sólidos, permitindo que possam ser planejadas ações pontuais a fim de garantir a parceria entre os setores.

THE COLLABORATIVE RELATIONAL DIAGNOSIS

In the practice of Social Work, the traditional concept of diagnosis refers to a simple formula: a professional with a certain competence linked to knowing and doing, issues a judgment in which the nature and magnitude of the difficulties have been synthesized and interpreted -needs of a person, family, group or community. This vision does not incorporate the relational and cooperative dimension of the encounter between the professional and the person in the framework of a helping relationship. From second order cybernetics, that of observing systems, what professionals believe, think and value (as professionals and as people), influences the vision that we are going to build of the person / family. If subjectivity occurs, what prevents the assessment of the problem situation from being able to co-construct it collaboratively between the professional and their clients? From this perspective, we can speak of collaborative diagnosis. The work collects the results of the practical application, under experimental conditions and in the daily practice of professionals, of the criteria to develop a co-diagnosis. It is useful to guide conversations with clients and is open to the adjustments that each relationship needs in its context.

Relationship of Personality with the Self Efficacy of Islamic Education Teachers in the Districts Of Besut, Setiu, and Kuala Nerus of Terengganu State

This research paper aims to identify the relationship of personality with the self-efficacy of Islamic Education Teachers (GPI) in primary schools in three districts on Terengganu state. There were 33 GPIs in Besut, Setiu, and Kuala Nerus being selected randomly as the research respondents. This research was conducted through the quantitative approach by using the instrument adapted from the Big Five Inventory Scale by John and Srivastava (1999) and Teacher Sense of Efficacy Scale by Tschannen-Moran & Hoy (2001). The data that involves score means and the correlation was analysed by the Statistical Packages for Social Sciences (SPSS) software, version 22.0. The descriptive analysis findings indicate that the personality value (M=3.68) and self-efficacy (M=3.87) are rated on the medium-high level. Meanwhile, the agreeableness dimension stated as the most dominant personality with the record of the highest score (M=4.32), followed by the dimension of conscientiousness (M=3.84), extraversion (M=3.78), openness (M=3.53) and neuroticism (M=2.99). the finding also indicates the highest self-efficacy level belongs to the dimension of class management (M=3.91), followed by the student’s management (M=3.90) and teaching strategy (M=3.79). The result from the Pearson correlation indicates the presence of a significant relationship between the dimension of openness (r=0.616**), conscientiousness (r-0.605**) and agreeableness (r=0.364*) with self-efficacy. However, the dimensions of extraversion (r=0.068) and neuroticism (r=-0.171) are showing the absence of significant correlation towards the self-efficacy. Henceforth, this conducted research able to become as the foundation towards understanding the personality trait in order to elevate the self-efficacy amongst GPI.
