Temporary Situation Research Articles

Naskah Akademik: Inkonsistensi Peraturan Dan Keterlibatan Pendidikan Tinggi

The purpose of this research is to determine the form of unclear norms in the preparation of academic texts, and to determine the involvement of universities through academic texts in the formation of regional regulations. The method used in this research uses normative legal research methods which raise the theme of legal systematics or the systematics of statutory regulations with vertical and horizontal levels of synchronization, with legal, conceptual, historical, theoretical and interpretive approaches. The results of this research show that explanatory words or adverbs, and/or academic texts have very different positions so that their diction cannot be in harmony because each position is very different. Apart from that, there are inconsistencies in norms which cause laws and regulations to be out of sync with each other, so that there is no normative harmonization from a vertical and/or horizontal perspective. Meanwhile, higher education institutions' involvement in academic texts is still situationally involuntary, namely a temporary situation within the limits of academic paper preparation activities and there is no aspect of continuity of this involvement. Thus, the position of academic texts is very respectable, however, in terms of legal norms governing academic texts, they are still not clear, so there is no legal certainty.

Gadamer 관점에 따른 묻지마 범죄에 대한 음악치료 현장에서의 창의성 이해

Unlike traditional incidents, “Do-not-ask” crimes occur against unspecified people or an unspecified number of people without a specific cause, so anyone can become a victim of “Do-not-ask” crimes, causing serious fear in many people. And, regardless of who is involved, it is difficult to clearly distinguish between a potential perpetrator of a crime and an actual perpetrator, leading to confusion in prevention. Through research to date, it is understood that perpetrators of “Do-not-ask” crimes generally have common problems such as poor economic and family environments, cognition, thinking, impulsiveness control, and emotional control abilities. Additionally, many perpetrators of “Do-not-ask” crimes have a history of mental illness and/or have a thinking disorder due to addiction to psychotropic drugs. Rather than increasing the severity of legal punishment for perpetrators of “Do-not-ask” crimes who have these problems, it is judged that mental rehabilitation treatment that includes drug treatment, interpersonal training, art therapy, and family education is more urgent, and preemptive measures against random crimes are considered more urgent. It is believed that information sharing and the establishment of a cooperative system with various organizations are urgently needed for prevention. First of all, in terms of therapeutic approach, there may be various understandings of perpetrators of crime without question, but crime without question is understood simply as a symptom and the goal is not to reduce or eliminate symptoms, but rather the psychological state of criminals without question is a process of horizon fusion, dialectic. By understanding it as a temporary and intermediate situation, we aim to suggest a direction for healing through the formation of perpetrators' creativity and the role of art and play (Spiel) where this creativity can be actively expressed.

Forward Thinking and Adaptability to Sustain and Advance IPECP in Healthcare Transformation Following the COVID-19 Pandemic

The proliferation of the novel SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) virus across the globe in 2020 produced a shared trauma internationally of unprecedented devastation, disruption, and death. At the same time, the pandemic has been a transformation catalyst accelerating the implementation and adoption of long overdue changes in healthcare education and practice, including telehealth and virtual learning. The COVID-19 pandemic has placed healthcare at a crossroads, either viewing it as a temporary situation that requires short-term solutions, or as a major disruption that presents opportunities for innovation for sustainable development and transformation. As COVID-19 transitions from pandemic to endemic, we have a unique opportunity to leverage lessons learned that can foster healthcare transformation through innovation, forward thinking, and interprofessional education and collaborative practice (IPECP). With the changing landscape of higher education and healthcare, IPECP leaders need to reflect on and implement ‘Forward Thinking and Adaptability’ and ‘Sustainability and Growth’ in their IPECP approaches and strategies to achieve the Quintuple Aim. To capitalize on this opportunity and based on a recent publication by InterprofessionalResearch Global, this paper explores and debates (from a global perspective) the impact and application of healthcare education and practice transformation on IPECP with the goal to identify best practices in integrating and sustaining IPECP and building a resilient workforce.

Migrant and Refugee Students in New Experiences of Family Ties: Media, Surveillance and Sociability

Based on the highly mediatized arrival of migrants and refugees in Greece, over the last decades, this paper focuses on media technologies consumption of Albanian and Syrian students, and analyzes the way family ties are experienced at a distance. Civil wars, anti-regime protests, economic difficulties and climate change have forced large numbers of people to escape from their countries, to live as refugees or displaced from their homeland and to remain in a context of surveillance, uncertainty and insecurity. Media technologies and digital platforms contribute to the communication of family members and national communities in diaspora, give access to information and education. Thus, the aim of this paper is to describe the new experiences of sociability and education for children who have been, or still are in transition and temporary situation. Drawing on two ethnographic studies - one in 2005 on migrant children from Albania living in the agricultural area in Greece, and the other on Syrian refugee families staying in a refugee camp in Athens - the paper presents everyday media practices in the context of the mobility.

EFFICIENCY OF THE FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT OF THE MODERN ORGANIZATION

The relevance of the issue of the prospects for the development of financial management is due to the need for financial entities to look for ways to increase the level of forecasting stability in their activity in the conditions of instability in the temporary economic situation.In particular, it includes the implementation of both capital structure financing decisions and decisions on: profit growth policies; tactical financing policy such as initial public offering, financial restructuring and debt financing; short-term financial management, such as cash, inventory and receivables and others.In this regard, the main theoretical concepts for the formation of the financial policy of financial entities have been identified, by considering a certain temporary economic situation - after the Covid crisis and the subsequent inflation.The financial expression of the effectiveness of the applied financial management in the specified situation was examined.This implies determining the main categories of quality activity of financial structures.For this purpose, the definitions of the effectiveness and efficiency of financial management have been derived and adapted. The main differences in the two meaningful concepts, evaluating the activity of financial institutions, through a system of criteria and indicators, are specified.In addition, a research model is presented - a regression analysis of the inflation of the Republic of Bulgaria with a duration of 18 months and a regression equation is derived.A forecast of the inflationary trends of a type common to the country's economic entity with a duration of 6 months was carried out.On this basis, a method for determining the inflation coefficient has been derived, using a first-order equation and the slope, the tangent of the angle made with the abscissa axis and a certain point from the estimated inflation graphic part. With the help of financial mathematics, a practical example of applying strategies of financial entities to determine the effectiveness and mainly the efficiency in reaching the desired state of the said entity was solved.Conclusions and recommendations are made for reactions of a type of financial entity to reduce the negative consequences of sudden changes and sharp fluctuations of the business environment in the current temporary financial situation.

Some features of using steel when renovation of buildings and structures

Problem statement. Steel as a material with high strength properties is very widely used in construction. But its production processes are associated with high energy consumption, and its availability in the country can vary significantly. The use of this material should always be seriously substantiated. Ukraine is currently in a temporary situation when, on the one hand, metal production has fallen sharply, while, on the other hand, in construction its needs have increased significantly. Purpose of the article. Firstly, the authors show some ways of significantly reducing metal consumption while providing a sufficient level of reliability by using the example of steel tanks for storing oil and petroleum products. All the authors' proposals are based on numerous data of tanks field inspections that have been in operation for 20…30 years or more. Secondly, the article gives examples of steel effective use in the renovation of old and partially destroyed civilian buildings made of brick and reinforced concrete. Some proposals for the fast mass construction of housing are considered, which is also very relevant today, and also, as in the buildings renovation, requires the steel costs. Conclusions. Today in Ukraine the demand for steel has increased, on the one hand, and at the same time, its production has decreased. This requires the involvement of all opportunities for more efficient use of steel in building structures, namely: the wider use of thin-walled structures, the use of effective rolled profiles, comprehension and adjusting regulations, which unreasonable steel costs are included.

The 2021-2022 “De-Escalation Moment” in the Middle East: A Net Assessment

Starting the end of 2020, the Middle East has witnessed an unprecedented de-escalation among its key regional rivals. Several major players, including Türkiye, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Iran, Israel, the UAE, and Qatar, have been reaching out to one another to reconcile and normalize relations, thus signaling a regional reset. As a result, a rare positive, constructive, and responsible trend of diplomatic engagement has been emerging, prompting the question of whether these reconciliatory and normalization processes will be a temporary situation or a new norm in the region. While investigating this question, the article discusses the rapprochement efforts, reconciliatory initiatives, and normalization processes between the key players in the Middle East from 2021 to 2022. It offers a net assessment of the situation, reviews comprehensively the diplomatic breakthroughs related to the cases in question, explains the primary motives and drivers of involved countries, and highlights the challenges that will likely encounter them. The article concludes by anticipating the prospects of these developments.

Insights from virtual practicum observation tasks in turkey during covid-19

With the declaration of COVID-19 as a global pandemic in March 2020, primary and secondary schools were closed abruptly, and pre-service teachers had to attend virtual practicum through online platforms. The present study investigates the implementation of emergency remote teaching in a practicum. The study aims at providing an insight into regular observation tasks submitted by pre-service teachers so as to explore the effects of the pandemic and virtual practicum on their professional growth. The study was conducted with 23 pre-service English language teachers taking virtual practicum at two state universities in Turkey. The study employs a qualitative content analysis on observation reports submitted by participants during the School Experience Course, conducted as the first part of the practicum in the fall semester of 2020. The findings indicate that the virtualisation of courses at schools and the practicum at faculties of education has brought about serious problems in equity and the intended learning goals. The digital divide poses a serious problem, especially for the economically disadvantaged. Although mentor teachers in practicum schools appear to improve on how to teach online, in-service training and governmental or institutional support about materials and learning management systems are still needed. Based on the findings of the study, the authors suggested that all stakeholders should make the best out of the emergency remote teaching experience and learn how to cope with it rather than view it as a temporary situation, as the COVID-19 pandemic might not be the last pandemic the world might encounter.

<i>Nhà Trọ</i>, Rental Rooms for Fragments of Life. Temporary Footprint of Rural Migrants in Ho Chi Minh City

In Ho Chi Minh City, private complexes of rental rooms designated in Vietnamese asnhtrọform one of the cheapest housing stocks, targeting the working-class, including internal rural migrants. This article combines the insights of both migration and urban studies to analyze the occupation of thenhtrọthrough the concept of temporariness. It addresses the tensions between present constraints and long-term plans of rural migrants as well as their translation into the occupation of the urban space. The method draws upon observations of rental housing and interviews conducted in two suburban neighborhoods of HoChiMinhCity in 2020 and 2021, with migrants coming from deltaic and coastal rural areas of Vietnam. It is found that thenh trọprovide housing for rural migrants who are in a long-term temporary situation, within a tight urban fabric with scarce opportunities for access to urban land ownership. Informants have moved to the city up to thirty years ago. Both the move and the duration are explained by multiple factors, from economic and social mutations to environmental pressures on the deltas and the coast. Relative job stability and trust-based interpersonal relationships in the city may strengthen over time, encouraging migrants to stay. Nevertheless, no matter how long they remain in Ho Chi Minh City, many migrants perceive their stay as temporary before a projected return to the hometown, where their permanent residence registration remains. The occupation of thenhtrọobserved, their adaptations, and the narratives of migrants reveal the relative nature of temporariness in migration and draw the contours of the spatial footprint of low-skilled rural migrants in Ho Chi Minh City.

Трансформация экологического поведения молодежи и COVID-19

Objective of the study is to sociologically study the impact of COVID-19 on changes in the environmental behavior of young people. The methodological basis of the research is the analysis of secondary data from sociological research, on the results of statistical analysis. Research results. The article concludes that without deep ideological changes, any artificial restrictions that force people to reduce the amount of harm to the environmental situation is only a temporary situation, after which the level of crisis in the field of ecology can only increase. It is noted that environmental values are not included in the circle of the most important priorities of young people, and quite a few representatives of this demographic group are ready to make conscious restrictions in order to improve the environmental situation. This state of affairs actualizes the search for management strategies and social practices aimed at the formation and strengthening of the foundations of the ecological behavior of young people. Prospects of the study are in the further study of the ecological behavior of young people in the context of global and local challenges and threats.

Are You the Next Flight Risk?

At a time when we are playing catch-up with the people with diabetes who were not able to connect with us during the thick of the pandemic, the health care system itself has fallen victim to COVID-19. Health care workers are leaving at alarming rates. Already in dire straits prior to COVID-19, the impact of the pandemic further exacerbated this problem, resulting in many health care professionals, including DCES, losing their jobs;or working from home virtually with the added burden of caring for children and homeschooling;or retiring—some by choice and some not;or being reassigned to COVID-19. Thinking it was a temporary situation, health care workers, including DCES, stepped up to help wherever they could and were lauded as heroes—until the burden just became too much.

The Presence of Learner Identity in Online Classes in UTAS-Rustaq

Learner identity has always been a crucial aspect in shaping learners’ learning process. However, the unprecedented and inevitable shift to online learning increases the need to invest in learners’ digital identities. Virtual classes are a new learning context for many Omani students, including the University of Technology and Applied Sciences-Rustaq (UTAS-Rustaq) students, introducing them to new social norms and relatively new assigned roles. Despite students’ current presence in the virtual classes, they are not new to the virtual world; many are already part of social networks. The present study, therefore, aims to investigate learners’ participation in social media and whether such presence would have an impact on their acceptance and involvement in online learning. There is an urge to examine this area which remains unexplored in UTAS-Rustaq due to its past limited practices. A mixed-method approach was implemented to elicit data; the focus group interviews aimed to seek in-depth insights to illuminate the collected data from the survey. The participants were English language learners who have experienced online learning for almost a year. The results indicated a positive presence in the virtual world in contrast to a negative presence in the virtual classroom. Surprisingly, technical difficulties were not the reason for students’ resentment of online learning; on the contrary, students reported that they elevated their technical skills due to the current situation. Rather, negativity arose from a lack of relational connectedness with the new context, which students kept referring to as a temporary situation and lack of teachers’ support.

Natural Lighting in Historic Houses during Times of Pandemic. The Case of Housing in the Mediterranean Climate.

The pandemic generated by the SARS-CoV-2 virus has led to a forced increase in the number of hours spent at home. In many cases, the lockdown situations, both in social and work terms, have meant that homes have suddenly also become workplaces. Based on all the indicators, this new relational scenario in the labor market displays a clear upward trend and is far from being a temporary situation. It is known that sunlight affects people’s circadian rhythm and that its reduction and even absence during this period of isolation has had a psychological impact on the population. This makes it necessary to reconsider the regulations applied in homes, in order to guarantee their habitability, given their recent widespread use as offices, as well as domestic spaces. In historic centers, the comprehensive renovations being carried out include improvements in energy efficiency and thermal comfort, which play a fundamental role. However, the energy consumption linked to artificial lighting and the quality of this lighting itself have remained in the background, as improvement strategies consist mainly in the replacement of incandescent or fluorescent lamps with LED lamps. Prior to the pandemic, the electric consumption of lighting systems accounted for 10–15% of the total, a figure which increased to 40–50% during the lockdown period. Aiming to improve people’s well-being while reducing energy expenditure on lighting, this article presents a quantitative approach to improving the levels of natural lighting in residential heritage buildings located in historic centers. According to data obtained from previous surveys of a sector of the population, homes built prior to 1950 were characterized by good natural lighting conditions and a very low incidence of health issues among occupants compared to contemporary homes. The objective was to quantify the circadian stimulus and lighting levels and to identify the areas or work areas in homes in order to optimize consumption related to lighting and to generate healthy and comfortable spaces. Results show that historic homes have enough naturally lit areas to perform office work during business hours. However, in the most unfavorable seasons, winter and autumn, it is necessary to use artificial lighting at the start and end of the working day.

Reconsidering Budgeting after the COVID-19 Outbreak

The financial field is experiencing unprecedented changes, as the effects of the COVID-19 outbreak are unraveling. One of the main challenges the managers have to face is the elaboration and implementation of the budgets. During 2020, companies worldwide had to continuously adjust the budgets which were already approved before the pandemic. But, as everyone understood that the world is not facing just a temporary situation, executive leaders had to also reconsider their budgeting process, taking into consideration the uncertainties of the future. It was clear that the traditional way of developing a budget, based on historical information, was no longer relevant and a new process should be implemented. Therefore, the aim of this paper is to put into discussion which would be the best alternative to the traditional budgeting process. Based on the thorough analysis of the reports published by relevant organisms and firms, the authors concluded that the best alternative would be the zero-based budgeting technique. The paper presents the benefits of this method, but also a guideline regarding the implementation of this process.

Development of Nakdong River Estuary Ecosystem Model Using AQUATOX Model

Objectives:In this study, a model representing the ecosystem of the Nakdong River Estuary was constructed using the AQUATOX model, and the ecosystem model was calibrated using the measured data, and the Nakdong River Estuary ecosystem was predicted by using the calibrated model.Methods:After constructing the Nakdong River Estuary Ecosystem Model using the AQUATOX model provided by the US EPA, the model was calibrated using the measurement data for the Nakdong River Estuary. The model calibration was performed on the measured chlorophyll-a, and the DO, total nitrogen, total phosphorus, crab, shrimp, and fish measurement data were compared with the values ​​derived from the calibrated model and verified. Using the final verified model, we predicted the ecosystem change that occurs when the pesticide component (0.4 ug/L) is temporarily and continuously introduced into the Nakdong estuary area from the upper stream of the Nakdong River.Results and Discussion:The calibration results of the ecosystem model for the measured chlorophyll-a were RB (0.029), F (1.35), RSME (0.489), and MAE (0.105). The phytoplankton in the estuary consisted of cryptomonas, greens, diatoms, blue-green algae, and the cryptomonas grew in the estuary as a habitat, but the rest of the phytoplankton were introduced into the estuary through the effluent of Nakdong river. In the case of zooplankton, copepods are the dominant species, but all of them are found to be released into the ocean when the effluent from Nakdong river is introduced. In the case of crustaceans, crab and shrimp were the dominant species, and the values ​​of these models were similar to the results of previous studies, and in the case of fish, the dominant species were found to be Toadfish and Croaker. Using the validated model, we predicted the transient or continuous inflow of herbicide components from the effluent of Hagut-duk, but phytoplankton and invertebrates decreased in both inflow situations. Exceptionally, copepods were not affected by the two inflow situations, and crabs continued to increase during temporary inflow conditions except for the initial stagnation period. All fish died in the continuous inflow situation, but in the temporary inflow situation, the Croaker increased and the Toadfish decreased.Conclusions:The implementation of the Nakdong River Estuary ecosystem as an AQUATOX model was the first attempt in Korea. Through this study, a plan to predict various environmental changes that may occur in the future was prepared. It was confirmed that the introduction of herbicides suggested as an example of environmental change can have a fatal effect on the estuary ecosystem even in small amounts, and the foundation for ecosystem changes and future countermeasures to various environmental changes in the future was established.

Investigation of higher education instructors’ perspectives towards emergency remote teaching

ABSTRACT Sudden transition to emergency remote teaching (ERT) caused a chaotic situation for not only those institutions with no or insufficient prior experience but also experienced ones all around the world. Experts expressed their concerns about inappropriateness of assessing remote teaching during especially the first stages of the global pandemic and urged to conduct scientific studies to develop a better insight about what was happening. This qualitative study intended to develop an understanding about the instructors’ perspectives towards the ERT. However, apart from similar early studies, it also proposed to test the employment of the socio-ecological model (SEM) as a theoretical or conceptual base for describing those perspectives. The results have shown that the SEM might be an effective framework to describe the perspectives of the different stakeholders on the ERT. Also, the study has shown that the instructors did see the ERT as a temporary situation that will be over soon, and they will go back to face-to-face classrooms, same as described in the definition of ERT.

Ontological Insecurity as an Emergent Phenomenon

Abstract. One of the central debates in Ontological Security Studies (OSS) has been about the level-of-analysis. While some authors focus on individuals, others have scaled up the concept and applied it to collectives such as states as the main ontological security seekers. In this article, we contribute to the level-of-analysis debate in OSS by providing a novel argument in defense of scaling up. By drawing on the literatures on complexity and securitization, we conceptualize ontological security as an emergent phenomenon. It arises from the ground-up and is driven by feedback loops in a non-linear and spontaneous fashion from horizontal micro-interactions and securitizations from below, ultimately reaching a tipping point. We illustrate this argument in a case study of anti-immigrant mobilization in Serbia since the outbreak of the European migration crisis (2015–2020). At the outset of the crisis, state officials interpreted the migration crisis as a manageable and temporary situation, adopted an “open door” policy and even banned far-right extremist demonstrations against migration. Over time, however, ontological insecurity over the migrant threat has gradually emerged from the bottom-up through a cascade of rumors, connective action, and everyday securitizing acts. While it might be too early to conclude that the national tipping point has been reached, this case study clearly shows why ontological insecurity merits to be studied as an emergent phenomenon.

Bouwlandschappen

Abstract Building landscapes A drawing by artist Jan Hoynck van Papendrecht (1858-1933) can be understood as a view of the f irst buildings along Amsterdam’s Van Eeghenstraat, as seen from his rear window. The late 19th-century method of raising polder meadows for urban expansion is also clearly visible on a hitherto mislocated drawing by Gerrit Haverkamp (1872-1926) of a building site in Amsterdam Oud-West. The chronological development of raising building sites can still be acknowledged from height differences in Amsterdams urban fabric. Building landscapes are rather underexposed in Dutch historical geography as a seemingly temporary situation. However, they are an intrinsic and sometimes longer-lasting part of the landscape’s biography and deserve more attention than they have received until now.

Digestive stomas: which professional impact?

Introductionles stomies digestives constituent l´aboutissement d´un certain nombre d´interventions chirurgicales. Elles peuvent être temporaires ou définitives. Le patient porteur de stomie se trouve confronté à des aléas d´ordre physique et psychologique. Il nécessite donc une adaptation aux changements et une acceptation de la situation qu´elle soit temporaire ou définitive. Le but de ce travail est d´évaluer l´impact des stomies digestives sur la qualité de vie des patients et leur retentissement professionnel.Méthodesil s´agit d´une étude rétrospective, menée de janvier 2010 à décembre 2014. Au cours de cette période 115 patients avaient eu des stomies digestives. Parmi ces patients, soixante étaient en âge d´activité professionnelle, avaient un emploi fixe et avaient repris leurs travail; ils constituent l´effectif de notre étude. Le recueil des données était réalisé par un questionnaire spécifique: le questionnaire généraliste SF-36 réalisé en post opératoire.Résultatsle score moyen pour la qualité de vie globale pour les patients stomisés était 41. Quarante patients avaient une mauvaise qualité de vie avec un score SF-36 qui était inférieur à 50. Notre étude a démontré que les patients stomisés ont éprouvé des difficultés de fonctionnement dans des situations de travail. Quarante-huit patients décrivaient une gêne directement liée à la stomie lors de l´exercice de leurs activités professionnelles. Les causes évoquées étaient d´ordre physique dans 6 cas et d´ordre psychologique dans 3 cas. Six patients étaient mutés vers des postes plus adaptés à leur situation.Conclusionl´objectif de la prise en charge des patients porteurs de stomie digestive doit être la réintégration sociale et professionnelle adéquate. Ceci ne peut se concevoir qu´en impliquant le médecin de travail, le psychologue, le stomathérapeute et les associations dans cette prise en charge.
