Nursing care for HIV/AIDS patients according to the Virginia Henderson model

Introduction: the nursing professional plays the role of providing or assisting with care and needs. There are several theories or models that govern nursing care. Virginia Henderson introduces a holistic humanistic model that can be applied to special groups such as patients with HIV/AIDS. The objective of the research was to characterize nursing care for HIV/AIDS patients according to the Virginia Henderson model.Methods: a literature review was conducted, where 25 articles in Spanish and English were selected, published in the last five years on the subject, in databases such as: Scopus, Pbmed, Springer.Results: assuming the care of people with HIV/AIDS is opting for the care of an incurable and life-limiting condition. Nurses must assist the person in procedures or in their treatment and create a bond of therapeutic help; guaranteeing professional confidentiality of the diagnosis, focusing on addressing the pathology and opportunistic infections, providing the means that contribute to achieving patient independence; as well as preventing stigma and social rejection of the patient.Conclusions: care for patients with HIV/AIDS requires professionals prepared to guarantee the necessary care for this specialized group. The required psychological, physical and emotional support must be provided, avoiding rejection or overprotection of the position, seeking solutions by providing patients with humane treatment; preventing social stigma, rejection and demoralization

This theoretical study examines the principles explaining learning based on the views of Carl Rogers, the founder of this movement.As this approach is considered as one of the most important educational intellectual currents with resonance.

Цифровая идентичность и гуманистическая модель цифровой образовательной среды

The article is devoted to the problems of subjective and personal self-determination of students in the situation of contact with the infocommunication environment, in particular, to the analysis of “digital identity”, symbolizing the emergence of a new modality of individual identification in virtual space. The methodological basis of the study was philosophical, axiological and systemic approaches. In addition, the possibilities of the method of existential analytics are used, which make it possible to explore not only ontological, but also the value-semantic contexts of the formation of personal identity, allowing us to consider the essence of “I” in the unique unity of its personal qualities, as well as content analysis as the optimal diagnostic tool network identity. The article conceptualizes the concept of “digital identity”. It is shown that the representation of the life of young people in a virtual environment, as one of the forms of successful socialization, as well as the possibility of constructing a virtual personality and its self-presentation in the external environment with the help of ideal self-images, determine the projective nature of digital identity, which is, ultimately, a set of projections of real identity, translated using digital technologies into a sign-symbolic context. Based on examples of the reverse influence of online identity on the real one, a conclusion is made about the emergence of a tendency to blur the lines between them, marking the beginning of the process of merging digital and real identities. The result of the study is a humanistic model of the digital educational environment (DEL), which sets the main variable vectors for its development and implementation, taking into account the creative potential of a particular teacher, the conditions of the educational organization, the socio-pedagogical and socio-psychological specifics of students.

Intellectualism without Humanism is more Dangerous than Illiteracy

It is an expectation from those in scholarship to positively lead exemplary lifestyles following the fact that their intellects must have received purification, and nurtured to identify the ‘good’, and subsequently, walk in the way that leads to the ‘good’. That should be the nature of scholarship for its process enlightens the minds, after which one could be referred to as an intellectual, a scholar. But it is unfortunate that this expectation has not been realized, as scholars, in the process of exercising scholarship, lose the essence which gears towards humanism, and become beasty in nature. This calls for a re-evaluation of the nature of scholarship and the expectations of scholars. Where has scholarship or scholarly process got it wrong to inculcate the very opposite of what is expected of its onus, in people participating in it? Is the factor responsible for this, in the process, or environmental dependent, or what scholars have constituted as the nature of scholarship? In answering these questions, this paper defends that it is the emphasis on logicality and criticality in participating in scholarship, and influences from the intellectual products of scholars, expressed in their philosophies of life, theories and ideologies that have encouraged this opposite development of inhumanism. The paper is expected to (1) unravel the already experiencing dangers of this anomaly, (2) advise scholars to toe more, the way of humanism than criticality and logicality of scholarship, and (3) postulate a more humanistic model as an essential scholarly exercise. The paper shall adopt conceptual analysis and a humanistic approach as methods.

A humanistic model of corporate social responsibility in e-commerce with high-tech support in the artificial intelligence economy

This paper aims to develop a humanistic model of corporate social responsibility in e-commerce, relying on high technology in an artificial intelligence economy. The research is based on the experience of the top 30 publicly traded e-commerce companies, the 16 most responsible companies in the retail industry in the USA, and the leading global and Russian e-commerce business structures in 2020–2021. Based on econometric modeling, it is substantiated that the humanization (qualitative criterion) of jobs provides an increase in revenues of e-commerce businesses to a greater extent than an increase in the number (quantitative criterion) of jobs. The high technology of the artificial intelligence economy (AI economy) makes it possible to maximize the contribution of responsible HRM of the e-commerce business in increasing its revenues. For this purpose, a humanistic model of corporate social responsibility in e-commerce based on high technology in the AI economy has been developed. The theoretical significance lies in proving the need to humanize jobs in e-commerce and revealing the essence of this process. The practical significance lies in the fact that the developed humanistic model will increase the profitability and, consequently, the resilience of businesses to future economic crises that arise against the backdrop of the COVID-19 pandemic.

THE CIVILIZATION SIGNIFICANCE OF HUMANISTIC IDEAS OF COMPREHENSIVE EDUCATION IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF UKRAINIAN NATIONAL IDENTITY IN EARLY MODERN TIMES

The article examines the influence of Western European ideas of integral personality education on the development of the Ukrainian educational space in the early modern times. Attention is drawn to the importance of the humanistic ideas of the secular Renaissance, the Protestant Reformation, and the Catholic Reformation for the formation of the Ukrainian socio-cultural space, in particular in terms of ethnic changes and mental transformations of Ukrainian society. The ways of penetration of early modern innovations into the educational tradition of Ukrainians are analyzed, in particular political and geographical (the proximity of Ukrainian lands to the countries of Western Europe, the location of Ukrainian cities at the intersection of key trade routes); the ideological and semantic kinship of the Orthodox Christian pedagogical tradition and Christian humanism, on the basis of which the Western European idea of enlightened piety “pietas litterata” was formed); educational and youth (active migration of Ukrainian youth from the elite environment to study in Western European countries, in particular to Italy, France, Germany, Holland, Belgium, the Czech Republic and other countries where young people received a humanistic education); ideological and literary (active dissemination of the works of European humanists in the early modern Ukrainian space); educational and institutional (the active spread of Catholic (Jesuit) and Protestant humanist schools in Ukrainian lands, which ensured the high quality of the educational process and ensured the involvement of the Russian population in the new, and most importantly, high-quality education of the European model, enriched the national educational tradition with Renaissance-humanistic tools, contributed to interaction and mutual enrichment of Western European and Russian cultures).
 It was established that the leaders of the ideas of the humanist school at that time proposed new, synthetic approaches to the search for effective ways of developing holistic education of the individual. In educational institutions founded on Ukrainian lands, the humanistic ideal of “pietas litterata” was proclaimed as the goal of education, which contained the triad of the Erasmus pedagogical paradigm: knowledge of Latin (education), active piety (individual initiative in social life) and virtue (upbringing). Protestant teachers and Jesuit teachers proposed an appeal to examples of ancient education, didactic emphasis was placed on “bonae artes” (“good arts”), pedagogical concepts “vita contemplation” (“life in contemplation”) and “vita active” (“life in activity”) were recognized as equal, and the educational model successfully combined two components – “sacrum” (“spiritual”) and “profanum” (“secular”).
 It has been proven that the key trajectory of the influence of Western European humanistic ideas was educational and pedagogical activity, the establishment of schools and collegiums of the humanistic model. It is emphasized that the active integration of humanist ideas in the Ukrainian educational and cultural space allowed not only to join the advanced European experience of the humanist school, but also had a significant positive impact on the development of Ukrainian national identity.

The importance of the user voice in clinical decision making: a reflective account

Effective clinical decision making is crucial to patient safety. A tripartite case decision was analysed to find learning points to improve clinical decision making. The case decision was analysed using the dual process theory and the intuitive humanistic model. The place of individual thinkers was analysed and their use of ‘system 1’ and ‘system 2’ thinking was considered. The impact that the diversity of individuals and their skill levels had on the clinical decision was analysed. It was concluded that a team consisting of both system 1 and 2 thinkers, as well as individuals at different places on the novice to expert continuum, would be beneficial in creating a balanced choice. The importance of the patient voice in clinical decision making was highlighted.

Toward The Humanistic Paradigm In Education: A Case Study

Abstract Alongside constructivism, the humanistic approach is a core premise in the Good School Concept (2016), a major document on the educational policy in secondary schools in the Republic of Lithuania. However, the humanistic approach is driven by the psychological, rather than educational, perspective and does not have an educational framework. The present study seeks to explore the theoretical notion of humanism from the educational perspective. We first develop an approach to the humanistic paradigm in education as comprising five other paradigms, viz., instrumental pragmatism, social constructivism, humanism in the narrow sense, postmodernism and care ethics. We then deliver a qualitative case study of a Lithuanian sports and distance learning school, employing Stake’s (1995) triangulation method, thematic analysis by Terry et.al. (2017) and elements of discourse analysis (Fairclough 1995, van Dijk 2008, Wodak and Meyer 2006). The findings of the study summarize the expectations of the participants of the educational process in light of the humanistic model proposed in the work. The proposed framework is hoped to be of interest in the research into humanism in education.

Expanding the history of humanities computing: Hugh Kenner’s conversational criticism

AbstractThis article posits that a novel and humanistic model of computing—‘conversational computing’—would emerge in the 1960s which, despite being largely forgotten today, proved extremely influential in computing and wider culture. I examine the metaphor and model of conversation embedded in this earlier idea and trace the ways it was taken up in the humanities via examining, through his archives, the career of renowned literary critic and programmer, Hugh Kenner (1923–2003).

What should we teach? A human‐centered data science graduate curriculum model design for iField schools

AbstractThe information schools, also referred to as iField schools, are leaders in data science education. This study aims to develop a data science graduate curriculum model from an information science perspective to support iField schools in developing data science graduate education. In June 2020, information about 96 data science graduate programs from iField schools worldwide was collected and analyzed using a mixed research method based on inductive content analysis. A wide range of data science competencies and skills development and 12 knowledge topics covered by the curriculum were obtained. The humanistic model is further taken as the theoretical and methodological basis for course model construction, and 12 course knowledge topics are reconstructed into 4 course modules, including (a) data‐driven methods and techniques; (b) domain knowledge; (c) legal, moral, and ethical aspects of data; and (d) shaping and developing personal traits, and human‐centered data science graduate curriculum model is formed. At the end of the study, the wide application prospect of this model is discussed.

Humanistic Care in Nursing: Concept Analysis Using Rodgers' Evolutionary Approach.

Background:Despite the importance and prominent role as a clinical, theoretical, and research approach in nursing practice, humanistic care nature and boundaries are not explicit and challenging for nurses to understand. This study was conducted to clarify the concept of humanistic care in nursing.Materials and Methods:Based on Rogers's evolutionary concept analysis, keywords such as “humanistic car *,” “caring behave *,” “humanistic nurs *,” “humanistic model of care,” were searched in PubMed, SCOPUS, Science Direct, Web of Science, WILEY, Springer, SAGE, ProQuest, SID, Iranmedex without time limit until November 2018. Sixty-five documents in nursing and ten documents in the medical discipline were finalized for thematic analysis.Results:Nine attributes of the humanistic care, including “excellence in clinical literacy,” “creating a healing environment,” “a comprehensive and unique viewpoint,” “contribution to clients' adaptation and flourishing of their talents,” “unrequited love and affection,” “preservation of human dignity,” “real presence,” “constructive dynamic interaction,” and “nurse's self-care,” were recognized. Assessing the historical and evolutionary course of the concept's semantic tendency revealed three periods: The focus in first, second, and third was on the nurse-patient relationship, quantitative tendency/measurement, and metaphysics/spiritual humanism, respectively. The comparison of interdisciplinary differences indicated greater semantic comprehensiveness and depth in the nursing discipline.Conclusions:Clear and practical definition and identification of humanistic care in nursing can be helpful in the further development of existing knowledge, instrumentation, designing guidelines, clinical interventions, knowledge translation, and correction of concept misuse. The identified antecedents and consequences can be in various aspects of clinical management.

Navigating the Ethically Complex and Controversial World of College Athletics: A Humanistic Leadership Approach to Student Athlete Well-Being.

The college athletics environment within the USA is ethically complex and often controversial. From an academic standpoint, athletes are often viewed as a privileged class receiving undue benefit. Yet closer inspection reveals that student athletes are at risk psychologically, physically, and intellectually in ways that undermine development and flourishing. This reality stands in troubling contrast to the prosocial, virtue-based goals expressed by university mission statements. Given the role of sport in many university business models, college athletics invites scrutiny from a business ethics standpoint. Using a humanistic leadership perspective (Pirson in: Humanistic management: protecting dignity and promoting well-being, Cambridge University Press, Cambridge, 2017), we organize our analysis around three challenges facing the college athletics system: (1) navigating the tension between claiming college athletes are amateurs rather than professionals; (2) defining the ethical edge between winning and winning fairly; and (3) moderating the insatiable drive to win while protecting student athlete well-being. We then articulate three strategies for successfully addressing these challenges: leadership role modeling, putting structural supports in place and holding people accountable. We argue that humanistic leadership and a ‘balanced motivational drive mindset’ (Lawrence and Nohria in: J Bus Ethics 128:383–394, 2002, https://doi.org/10.1007/s10551-014-2090-2; Pirson 2017) could help move college athletics from an economistic model toward a more humanistic model that prioritizes the dignity and well-being of its participants, particularly student athletes.

Reflections on a journey, doing unfinished business, and homage to Balfour Mount

As a medical student at McGill in 1972, I was honored to meet Dr. Balfour Mount. He made it possible for me to accompany him to St. Christopher’s Hospice. We were 8 students from all over the world. Dr. Cicely Saunders felt the best way to learn to be with dying patients was to work as a nurse. So, in that summer of my third year of medical school, I did. My career has gone on, first at Mc Gill and since 1987 at UC San Diego. I have been privileged to teach generations of students and faculty a humanistic empowering model of healthcare, seeing the patient as teacher. Our role is to create environments where people take charge of their lives and achieve wellbeing. My first teacher in doing unfinished business was my father. I was 17. He was 72. He had a MI, called me and my mother into the CCU and said, “The last 25 years with you and Ellen have been the best years of my life. If I should die, I want to say thank you and goodbye.” Then he lived for 20 years and we got to know each other. Present at these moments in people’s lives, we can facilitate unfinished business, whether a mother with cancer, who wrote letters for the next 20 years of her daughter’s life, knowing she wouldn’t be there, a Somali family saying goodbye in the ICU to a loved one or my Dad, opening doors to the future.

Public dialogue as a way to create an inclusive touristic space (on the example of “K. I. Shulzhenko museum” MIC)

The relevance of the article. An important problem of modern Ukrainian society is small number of inclusive spaces, what complicates the process of socialization of young people with disabilities. Prevailing forms of mentality in Ukraine (charitable, administrative, magical) do not provide an opportunity to adequately solve this problem. Only a humanistic, dialogue­based model of mentality will contribute to the creation of a true inclusive in the society.
 The purpose of the article is to develop proposals for the formation of a local tourism inclusive space on the example of “Klavdiia Shulzhenko Museum”.
 The methodology. The work is a practice research based on the principles of the philosophy of dialogue, devoted to the search for practical ways to implement a humanistic model of social development in a particular enterprise of tourist infrastructure. The use of general scientific (analysis, synthesis, genera­lization) and special methods (modeling) is deter­mined by the purpose and objectives of the study.
 The results. Based on the analysis of successful examples of the formation of inclusive space in Ukrainian museums, a step­by­step plan for the transformation of space in the direction of inclusion for the “Klavdiia Shulzhenko Museum”. For the first stage, it is important to create a space for dialogue with the target audience and establish cooperation in the working group. For the second — cooperation for creating the excursions. The next stage is the transformation of infrastructure.
 The practical significance. The article is a theoretical base for practical museum projects, in which young people with disabilities are actively involved in society, visitors without disabilities will understand that young people with disabilities have high potential and are able to actively participate in society; creates a positive social discourse of acceptance, favorable for the socialization of young people with disabilities.
 Conclusion. Since the problem of transformation of society in the direction of inclusion is not belongs exclusively for Kharkiv, it is has meaning to use successful world and Ukrainian cases. Since infrastructural problems are the result of existing mental attitudes, they can be solved through changes in mentality (establishing public dialogue), rather than government directives. For Kharkiv, the Municipal Institution of Culture “K. I. Shulzhenko Museum” is a place with significant social and cultural potential. Given the creation of an inclusive space in the museum, it can become one of the outposts of socialization of young people with disabilities, but also — to promote the formation of a positive image of people with disabilities in society. The solution of this task can take the form of cooperation with NGOs and further joint project activities.

Between a humanistic and economic model of lifelong learning: The validation system in Poland

AbstractThis article showcases the Polish validation system through the lens of Critical Discourse Analysis and two models of lifelong learning—the economic and humanistic one, treated as competitive narratives on lifelong learning. We argue that some contradictions can be observed, generated by a clash between the two approaches, as the validation system subscribes to an economic model, while leaning on chosen elements of the humanistic model without maintaining humanistic values. We analyse the premises and structure of the Integrated Qualifications System (IQS) that introduced validation to Poland, as well as the practices emerging with the implementation of the IQS that began in 2015. Our main source of data are legal documents, the systems' institutional structure and core mechanisms as well as various studies conducted by the Educational Research Institute as part of implementing the IQS from 2017 to 2020. We conclude that the most serious consequence of the aforementioned contradictions and the resulting tensions is that the concept of validation as a process aimed at recognising non‐formal and informal learning while providing guidance for the individual, is played down in the system. This is particularly concerning as it represents the marginalisation of the needs of learners, who are the systems’ end users.

Protecting Women's and Newborns' Rights in a Public Maternity Unit During the COVID-19 Outbreak: The Case of Dra. Eloísa Díaz - La Florida Hospital in Santiago, Chile.

The Maternity in Dra. Eloísa Díaz’ hospital, located in the municipality of La Florida and city of Santiago, Chile, opened its doors in 2014, and has integrated a humanistic model of care called the “Safe Model of Personalized Childbirth” since 2016. With around 3,000 births per year, it has been recognized as an example of excellence in maternity care in the country. The COVID-19 outbreak presented a big challenge to this Maternity: to maintain its quality of care standards despite the health crisis. This article presents the Maternity’s responses to the pandemic from March to July 2020, describing the strategies that were deployed and the obstetric outcomes achieved. Semi-structured interviews with midwives and OB-GYNs, and a retrospective review of the childbirth standards of care and outcomes of the 55 women who tested positive for SARS-CoV-2, were carried out. The results show how the Maternity's staff responded in order to avoid a significant negative impact on the rights of women and newborns. Protocols to reestablish the companion during labor and childbirth and skin-to-skin contact, which were suspended for almost three weeks at the beginning of the outbreak, and the creation of an Instagram account to communicate with the external community were some of the measures taken. After some initial weeks of adjustment, the standards of care for all women, included for those diagnosed with COVID-19, were reestablished almost to pre-pandemic levels. This case shows that quality of care can be maintained and the rights of women and newborns can be respected during health crisis such as the COVID-19 pandemic.

Hacia una pastoral de la escucha desde el Counselling humanista integrativo

This paper aims to elucidate the emphatic demand of the Listening Pastoral inside the Catholic Church. The Supreme Pontiff, Pope Francis, dreams with a clergy with a greater capacity to handle the Christian community in its most relevant urgencies, such as youth accompaniment, specially an active listening made with attentive ears. From this base the article proposes a new method for accompaniment: a pastoral of listening according to the Humanistic Integrative Counseling model. However, the Listening Pastoral doesn’t have agents with the required formation, therefore, beyond the technique, it is important the attitudes of the professional, who welcomes the marginalized and weakened. At the end of the article a list of attitudes will be presented having in mind a pastoral accompaniment.

Description and Critical Reflection of a Humanistic Model of Nursing Care

Several literature reviews forewarned that theory evaluation and the use of nursing theories are unfortunately declining within the discipline. In this article, a French-Canadian conceptual model of nursing is described, then critiqued based on Chinn and Kramer's method of theoretical evaluation. Five documents were read iteratively as a means to identify the purposes, concepts, definitions, relationships, structure, and assumptions of this conceptual model. Then, as suggested by Chinn and Kramer, its clarity, simplicity, generality, accessibility, and importance are discussed. The conclusion summarizes the main results of the evaluation and its implications for the future refinement of the conceptual model.

Social Media as Communication Strategy for Susi Pudjiastuti to Build Maritime Security Awareness in Indonesia

Indonesia faces a number of serious and urgent challenges in the area of maritime security; including, Illegal, Unreported and Unregulated Fishing, Maritime Plastic Pollution, and serious Transnational Organised Crimes such as human trafficking and forced labour. One figure in Indonesian politics stands out for her efforts to eradicate these crimes, Susi Pudjiastuti, the Indonesian Minister for Marine Affairs and Fisheries since 2014. Minister Pudjiastuti has been remarkable both for her enforcement of previously-unutilized laws to seize and destroy illegal vessels, and her use of social media to promote awareness and action within the general public. The thesis takes a mixed methodology approach to measure and analyse Pudjiastuti’s strategic use of social media as a key weapon in her fight against crime in the maritime sector. Through quantitative and qualititave analysis of Pujiastuti’s Instagram and Twitter posts, the thesis reveals a very high level of influence, awareness-raising and engagement with her message. Her innovative used of social media indicates a new paradigm of direct, transparent political engagement with the public that sets a high benchmark for other Indonesian leaders and politicians.
