Abstract:
The Makers is the latest novel of the American science fiction writer, blogger and Silicon Valley intellectual Cory Doctorow. Set in the 2010s, the novel describes the possible impact of the present trend towards the migration of modes of production and organization that have emerged online into the sphere of material production. Called New Work, this movement is indebted to a new maker culture that attracts people into a kind of neo-artisan, high tech mode of production. The question is: can a corporate-funded New Work movement be sustainable? Doctorow seems to suggest that a capitalist economy of abundance is unsustainable because it tends to restrict the reach of its value flows to a privileged managerial elite.

Abstract: This article argues that the graphic narrative form of Cory Doctorow's and Jen Wang's In Real Life draws the reader's attention to the complex social space of MMORPGs, especially for young adults as they encounter the challenges of gender and global economic politics in virtual space as well as in real life. Through teen gamer Anda's perspective, the narrative engages the politics of embodiment in virtual and real spaces and reveals the limitation of her naïve and privileged political participation.

Abstract:
In recent times, robots have become increasingly human like both in their behaviour and appearance. Undoubtedly, such technological developments are essentially useful when it comes to preserving and improving the quality of life either in the fields of healthcare or education. But significant body of studies also demonstrates that humans frequently have a negative sense of eeriness, danger, and menace when they are around robots. This research paper will analyse the short story, "I, Robot" by Cory Doctorow through the prism of posthumanism and look at the problem of state or governmental monopolisation of information technology while acting as a deep state by subjugating the common masses through policing. The study further examines the negative and positive aspect of Isaac Asimov's three laws of robots and the function that human consciousness plays in acceptance of robots that do not adhere to the three laws.

Philosophiae Doctor - PhD
This study investigated scholarly communication guidance as a core service by the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST), Kumasi, Ghana, academic library to doctoral students, research and scholarly communication needs and skills of doctoral students and effective dissemination of research findings by doctoral students for national development. The study also explored the adoption of a research portal as part of the academic library website for scholarly communication guidance to doctoral students. A case study research design with KNUST as research site, with a mixed method approach was used. Semi-structured interviews, questionnaires, documentary analysis and a bibliometric survey of an institutional repository were employed as data gathering tools. A scholarly communication guidance model based on Costa’s proposed adaption of Garvey and Griffin’s models of scholarly communication, Wilson’s information behaviour model and Bjôrk’s scholarly communication lifecycle model was developed to frame the study.

Abstract:
After individuals sustain a spinal cord injury, all aspects of their lifestyle must change for them to manage their new life roles. One important area of recovery that is often not addressed during the rehabilitation process is sexual functioning. The purpose of this quantitative study was to examine how doctor communication about sexual health with women who have sustained spinal cord injuries predicts their levels of sexual functioning and sexual self-esteem. The theoretical framework was the sexual health model. Questionnaires were used to gather data from 45 women who had completed rehabilitation from spinal cord injuries. Level of current sexual functioning was measured using the Female Sexual Function Index. Sexual self-esteem was measured using the Multidimensional Sexual Self-Concept Questionnaire. Satisfaction with doctor-patient communication was measured using the Patient Satisfaction Questionnaire and Perceived Self-Efficacy in Patient-Physician Interactions-Sex. Findings from correlation analysis indicated a positive correlation between general satisfaction with doctor-patient communication and confidence to communicate with the doctor about sexual health. Results also indicated a negative correlation between sexual self-esteem and sexual functioning. Findings may be used to improve communication between doctors and patients about sexual health, which may reduce the stigma of talking about sexuality and may promote more holistic treatment for women recovering from spinal cord injuries.

Abstract:
Research related to epistemological beliefs or beliefs about knowing and learning has offered insight into promoting effective learning (Hofer, 1994; Schommer, 1990, 1993a, 1993b ). A teaching program designed to foster the development of more sophisticated epistemological beliefs was implemented with 29 pre-service graduate teacher education students at the Queensland University of Technology, Brisbane, Australia. As part of the year-long teaching program, students were required to reflect in journal entries on both the content of an educational psychology unit and their epistemological beliefs. The students engaged in this teaching program (henceforth known as the research group) were interviewed in relation to their beliefs about knowing, learning and teaching at the beginning (Time 1) and conclusion (Time 2) of the teaching program. Students in a comparison group, which comprised another educational psychology tutorial group for which the inquirer was responsible, were not exposed to the teaching program that was implemented with the research group. Therefore, students in the comparison group were not encouraged to reflect on their epistemological beliefs, but were engaged in large and small group tutorial discussions in relation to the educational psychology content. They were asked to complete written statements about their beliefs about knowing, learning and teaching at the beginning (Time 1) and end (Time 2) of the year-long unit. Schommer's (1988, 1990) epistemological beliefs questionnaire, the Study Process Questionnaire (SPQ) (Biggs, 1987) and the Conceptions of Learning Inventory (COLI) (Purdie & Hattie, 1997) were administered to both the comparison and research groups at Time 1 and Time 2. These questionnaires measured beliefs about knowing, approaches to learning and conceptions of learning respectively. The results of both the qualitative and quantitative data analysis indicated that the group of students engaged in the teaching program experienced more growth in sophisticated beliefs about knowing, and to a lesser extent, beliefs about learning and teaching. Furthermore, there appeared to be a relationship between core beliefs about knowing and peripheral beliefs about learning and teaching in the research group. For example, all students who described at least some sophisticated core beliefs about knowing also reported sophisticated beliefs about learning and teaching. Both the success of the teaching program and the perceived consistency between core and peripheral epistemological beliefs have implications for how teacher educators develop relational learning environments.

Abstract:
Embora sejam grandes os progressos com a promulgação da Constituição de 1988, que garante constitucionalmente a saúde como direito de todos e dever do Estado, esse direito não tem sido assegurado no mesmo nível e com a mesma qualidade de atenção, em especial, para a população negra. Depois de uma revisão sobre a história a influência das teorias racialistas e de gênero como categoria de análise na medicina, discute-se uma síntese da história recente das práticas médicas no Brasil e a reflexão critica sobre essas práticas centradas no tecnicismo. O objetivo deste estudo, parte da linha de pesquisa Pesquisa Psicossocial da Desigualdade: Relações Étnico-raciais, foi descrever que sentidos e significados médicos e médicas conferem aos temas médico-sociais na sua trajetória e formação, especialmente como concebem os determinantes sociais de gênero e raça Foram entrevistados 25 médicos (13 médicos e 12 médicas) que orientam e são preceptores de alunos da residência médica em um hospital universitário. O roteiro abordava o perfil sócio-demográfico e sua trajetória profissional; o seu nível de conhecimento e contato com os determinantes sociais (pobreza, gênero, cor/raça, nacionalidade, religião dos diferentes grupos populacionais) durante a formação acadêmica; que fatores consideravam relevantes para uma boa relação médico-paciente; seu conhecimento sobre Direitos Humanos e os princípios do Sistema Único de Saúde; as experiências na relação médico-paciente e de cuidado. Depois de um aquecimento propiciado pela situação da entrevista, entre os resultados, o estudo permitiu observar como os médicos entrevistados reconhecem alguns marcadores sociais da diferença que se transformam em desigualdade, os lugares sociais diferentes para homens e mulheres, brancos, amarelos e negros, lugares de maior ou menor privilégio e de obstáculo para o sucesso técnico. As diferenças e desigualdade de gênero foram mais fáceis de serem explicitadas e os entrevistados articulavam um repertório levemente maior para o tema. Todos os entrevistados, em algum momento, usaram o discurso sobre o instintivo e natural, e a maior parte deles compreende o masculino e o feminino de um modo muito conservador, com problemas para encontrar definições para perguntas supostamente simples. No caso da desigualdade racial, observamos que houve uma polarização: de um lado a negação das desigualdades entre brancos e não brancos, do outro temos a valorização da identidade branca, compondo bem com o racismo à brasileira. O contexto social foi associado à pobreza mais que qualquer outro indicador da desigualdade social. Cenas de racismo e sexismo institucional foram frequentes. Os poucos entrevistados que tinham uma noção mais sofisticada sobre gênero e raça eram aqueles que contaram com a oportunidade de desenvolver uma atividade de extensão, a iniciação científica ou que tiveram uma formação mais generalista, mais social. A trajetória trilhada na faculdade contribui, portanto, para a formação
Brazil\'s 1988 Constitution grants health as a human right to all and a duty of the State. Although great progress has been made since its enactment, this right has not been ensured at the same level and with the same service quality, particularly with regard to Afro-Brazilians. With close attention to history and the influence of racial and gendered theories, this article discusses the recent history of medical practices in Brazil and provides critical reflection on those practices that are centered on technique. The main purpose of this study, a part of the Psycho-social research on inequality: ethnic-racial relations research line, is to describe the meanings and significance that doctors give to medical social issues in their education. Special attention is given to their conception of the social determinants of gender and race. Twenty-five doctors (13 men and 12 women) were interviewed. All of them mentor medical students pursuing their residency at a University Hospital. The interviews script centered on their socio-demographic profile, their professional path and the degree of knowledge or contact with social determinants (poverty, gender, race/color, nationality, religion of the different population groups) during their academic formation, the factors they considered as relevant to a good doctor-patient relationship, their knowledge of Human Rights and the principles of the Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS) and their experiences in the care and doctor-patient relationships. Among its results, the study shows how the interviewed doctors recognize several social markers of difference that convert into inequity, the different social places for men and women, the white, the people of Asian descent and the black, places of greater or lower privilege and obstacle for technical success. The gender differences and inequalities were more easily explained and respondents articulated a slightly larger repertoire for the topic. All of the interviewees, at some moment, used the discourse on the instinctive and the natural, and most of them have a very conservative comprehension of the feminine and the masculine, and encountered problems in finding definitions for apparently simple questions. With regards to racial inequality, there was a polarization: on the one hand, the denial of inequalities among the white and the non white, on the other, a consistent evaluation of white identity, linked to the Brazilian racism. The social context was associated with poverty rather than any other indicator of social inequality. Evidence of racism and sexism were frequently observed in the interviews. The few interviewees that had a more sophisticated notion of gender and race were those who had had the chance to develop an extracurricular activity, the scientific initiation, or those who had had a more generalist and social education. Thus, the experience acquired during university contributes to the formation of their notions of social determinants in health

Abstract:
This study, to elucidate the role of des(1-3)IGF-I in the maturation of IGF-I,used two strategies. The first was to detect the presence of enzymes in tissues, which would act on IGF-I to produce des(1-3)IGF-I, and the second was to detect the potential products of such enzymic activity, namely Gly-Pro-Glu(GPE), Gly-Pro(GP) and des(l- 3)IGF-I. No neutral tripeptidyl peptidase (TPP II), which would release the tripeptide GPE from IGF-I, was detected in brain, urine nor in red or white blood cells. The TPPlike activity which was detected, was attributed to a combined action of a dipeptidyl peptidase (DPP N) and an aminopeptidase (AP A). A true TPP II was, however, detected in platelets. Two purified TPP II enzymes were investigated but they did not release GPE from IGF-I under a variety of conditions. Consequently, TPP II seemed unlikely to participate in the formation of des(1-3)IGF-I. In contrast, an acidic tripeptidyl peptidase activity (TPP I) was detected in brain and colostrum, the former with a pH optimum of 4.5 and the latter 3.8. It seems likely that such an enzyme would participate in the formation of des( 1-3 )IGF-I in these tissues in vitro, ie. that des(1-3)IGF-I may have been produced as an artifact in the isolation of IGF-I from brain and colostrum in acidic conditions. This contrasts with suggestions of an in vivo role for des(1-3)IGF-I, as reported by others. The activity of a dipeptidyl peptidase N (DPP N) from urine, which should release the dipeptide GP from IGF-I, was assessed under a variety of conditions and with a variety of additives and potential enzyme stimulants, but there was no release of GP. The DPP N also exhibited a transferase activity with synthetic substrates in the presence of dipeptides, at lower concentrations than previously reported for other acceptors or other proteolytic enzymes. In addition, a low concentration of a product,possibly the tetrapeptide Gly-Pro-Gly-Leu, was detected with the action of the enzyme on IGF-I in the presence of the dipeptide Gly-Leu. As part of attempts to detect tissue production of des(1-3)IGF-I, a monoclonal antibody (MAb ), directed towards the GPE- end ofiGF-I was produced by immunisation with a 10-mer covalently attached to a carrier protein. By the use of indirect ELISA and inhibitor studies, the MAb was shown to selectively recognise peptides with anNterminal GPE- sequence, and applied to the indirect detection of des(1-3)IGF-I. The concentration of GPE in brain, measured by mass spectrometry ( MS), was low, and the concentration of total IGF-I (measured by ELISA with a commercial polyclonal antibody [P Ab]) was 40 times higher at 50 nmol/kg. This also, was not consistent with the action of a tripeptidyl peptidase in brain that converted all IGF-I to des(1-3)IGF-I plus GPE. Contrasting ELISA results, using the MAb prepared in this study, suggest an even higher concentration of intact IGF-I of 150 nmollkg. This would argue against the presence of any des( 1-3 )IGF-I in brain, but in turn, this indicates either the presence of other substances containing a GPE amino-terminus or other cross reacting epitope. Although the results of the specificity studies reported in Chapter 5 would make this latter possibility seem unlikely, it cannot be completely excluded. No GP was detected in brain by MS. No GPE was detected in colostrum by capillary electrophoresis (CE) but the interference from extraneous substances reduced the detectability of GPE by CE and this approach would require further, prior, purification and concentration steps. A molecule, with a migration time equal to that of the peptide GP, was detected in colostrum by CE, but the concentration (~ 10 11mo/L) was much higher than the IGF-I concentration measured by radio-immunoassay using a PAb (80 nmol/L) or using a Mab (300-400 nmolL). A DPP IV enzyme was detected in colostrum and this could account for the GP, derived from substrates other than IGF-1. Based on the differential results of the two antibody assays, there was no indication of the presence of des(1-3)IGF-I in brain or colostrum. In the absence of any enzyme activity directed towards the amino terminus of IGF-I and the absence any potential products, IGF-I, therefore, does not appear to "mature" via des(1-3)IGF-I in the brain, nor in the neutral colostrum. In spite of these results which indicate the absence of an enzymic attack on IGF-I and the absence of the expected products in tissues, the possibility that the conversion of IGF-I may occur in neutral conditions in limited amounts, cannot be ruled out. It remains possible that in the extracellular environment of the membrane, a complex interaction of IGF-I, binding protein, aminopeptidase(s) and receptor, produces des(1- 3)IGF-I as a transient product which is bound to the receptor and internalised.

AbstractThe purpose of this study is to examine the extent to which the science teachers apply critical thinking in their classrooms in some of American schools in Sharjah. In the modern days, the attention towards critical thinking skills is massive. For so many years it’s been acknowledged as a central objective in the field of education. The academic standards in various subjects including math, science, and social studies give significance to several connections between critical thinking and the content of the core curriculum, guiding the students in a more superior way. This research study was aspired to delve into the approach of in-service science teachers regarding the implementation and utilization of critical thinking attributes in science classes that apply the NGSS science academic content standards in some American curriculum schools in Sharjah (UAE). In this quantitative study, twenty science teachers responded and volunteered from various schools in Sharjah. A large diversity of standards was attended by science teachers in place of needing critical thinking skills in the face of the fact that a lot of others were contemplated to be inadequate. The scheme concerned with standards perceived high in comparison to critical thinking in science. However, the standards of the science content conceded the minimal amount.

Cyberpunk science fiction broke new ground in terms of AI representation; William Gibson’s Neuromancer (1984), the ur-text of cyberpunk, introduced the term ‘cyberspace’, and this spatialized metaphor for data creates an environment that can be inhabited by AIs, rather than an idea of the AI being located in one ‘body’, or in one static place. This chapter explores the possibilities opened by this innovation and by cyberpunk’s continued interrogation of AI as a phenomenon that is dispersed throughout networks, particularly focusing on William Gibson, in the Afrofuturist movement through a reading of Samuel R. Delany’s Stars in My Pocket Like Grains of Sand (1984), and on the work of writers who have been characterized as ‘post-cyberpunk’, such as Cory Doctorow, who shows how algorithms and artificial intelligences can have unexpected, international, and economic consequences.

Abstract:
AI promises to be a master technology that can solve any problem—including the problem of death. There are two main contemporary narratives describing how AI might achieve this: cyborgization and mind uploading. This chapter focuses on the latter. It examines how works of nonfiction by influential technologists, in particular Hans Moravec and Ray Kurzweil, have framed this possibility. It pays particular attention to three narrative elements: the promise of boundless wish fulfilment, the assumption of exponential technological progress, and the assumption of personal survival through the mind-uploading process. It then examines how works of fiction, including those of William Gibson, Greg Egan, Pat Cadigan, Robert Sawyer, Rudy Rucker, and Cory Doctorow, offer problematized accounts of these claims. It focuses on three problems in particular, which I call the problems of identity, stability, and substrate. It concludes that science fiction offers a particularly important site of critique and response to techno-utopian narratives.

Abstract:
Medicine’s core responsibilities cannot be derived from everyday ethics. Rather they follow from doctors’ fundamental duties to seek trust and to act for the benefit of patients and society. The additional more specific duties are justified as necessary means to achieve or maintain trust or as behavior that is required for meeting medicine’s fiduciary responsibility. Thus, the commitment to trustworthiness and the fiduciary responsibility of medicine generate the moral force behind the additional widely recognized ethical duties of physicians and inform the notion of professionalism. This chapter explains the duty of professional competence, the duty to provide care, and the duty of mindfulness and why they are important characteristics of trustworthy doctors. It also provides cases to illustrate how those duties should be understood and why those particular duties and related attitudes or virtues are critically important elements of medical ethics.

Abstract:
This paper presents a dialogue system for training doctors to break bad news. The originality of this work lies in its knowledge representation. All information known before the dialogue (the universe of discourse, the context, the scenario of the dialogue) as well as the knowledge transferred from the doctor to the patient during the conversation is represented in a shared knowledge structure called common ground, that constitute the core of the system. The Natural Language Understanding and the Natural Language Generation modules of the system take advantage on this structure and we present in this paper different original techniques making it possible to implement them efficiently.

Abstract:
Agricultural commodities prices skyrocketed during the first quarter of 2022, mainly driven by the escalation of the situation between the Russian Federation and Ukraine, but also by extreme climate conditions in certain geographies and protectionist measures introduced by governments to protect domestic supplies. Within this paper the authors would like to provide an overview of the biggest producers and exporters of the selected agricultural commodities, being wheat, corn, and sunflower seeds and oil, and their price development in 2022. For all of them, the two conflicting countries, the Russian Federation and Ukraine, play an important role in world production and export. The production and export volumes should be analyzed along with the price developments in the first months of 2022. As the products are traded on the commodity market the comparison is based on the traded prices.

Abstract:
The purpose of the present study is to investigate the status of the core curriculum in higher education doctoral programs from the perspective of program directors. We used online survey analytic techniques to query program directors about their EdD and PhD programs in higher education, credit hours, and curricular content. Our study confirms previous work finding that there is common agreement in the subject matter areas of organization, leadership, administration, and history. What our work adds is that there is a growing consensus among higher education doctoral programs about the position of higher education law and finance in the curricular core. In addition, we find there is a growing interest in public policy and community colleges over time, with a majority of EdD programs including instruction in these areas. Nevertheless, majoritarian agreement does not meet at a level wherein consensus can be inferred, especially within PhD programs where requirements are more varied across programs. In addition, while there is an increasing trend in the inclusion of multiculturalism in higher education doctoral programming, multiculturalism is not currently part of higher education’s core. We conclude with research and practice implications for doctoral programs in higher education as a field of study.

Abstract:
Banking sector plays a key role in financial system of every developed country. To know possible weaknesses proper risk management is necessary. European Banking Authority (EBA) is the arterial institution in attempt to consolidate risk management among different countries of European Union. EBA discloses on quarterly basis various Key Risk Indicators (KRIs) for all EU member countries. The goal of this paper is to analyze chosen KRIs of all EU countries and based on distances and similarities among them, insert them into homogenous groups. The purpose of the analysis is to seek insights into different countries bank’s sector and finding similarities among them, which might not be visible at the first glance. For the research, both hierarchical and non- hierarchical cluster analysis were performed. Results show that we could observe four groups of states which could be, with a little generalization, labeled as eastern countries, southern countries, northern countries and middle and core countries of EU, based on analyzed KRIs.

Abstract:
This paper analyses specific type of investor on financial markets – a reinsurance company and its value-creating process, with focus on its investment activities. A special attention is focused on reinsurer’s idiosyncratic investor’s profile due to core business activities, i.e. underwriting. This makes its investment profile and objectives different to other market participants. We modelled and analysed reinsurer’s three main investment strategies based on underlying asset classes of particular portfolios. Each of these portfolios is comprising of three sub-portfolios which are managed by different portfolio managers. Analysed investment strategies are: (i) Listed Equity Portfolio, (ii) Corporate Credit USD Portfolio and (iii) Structured Credit USD Portfolio. We analysed and compared performance of these strategies, risk-adjusted performance, volatility and duration (where applicable). Performance of investment strategies is assessed on 2010-2015 time-frame against selected composite benchmark. This period was chosen for analysis due to the relative macroeconomic stability of previous decade (2010-2019) which have been dominated by strong returns among many asset classes.

Abstract:
Since 2015, companies in Slovakia have had a very effective tool for financing innovation: deduction of research and development expenses. It is an indirect support for research and development, which is provided to the company through a tax credit for expenses incurred for research and development activities. The amount of supercomputing gradually increased during the first years. The year 2018 was a breakthrough in the application of supercomputing, as the rate increased to 100% compared to previous years, when entrepreneurs could claim only 25% of expenditure (costs) on research and development. Thanks to R&D, taxpayers can therefore apply a reduction in the tax base (tax relief) and a precisely defined amount in addition to their normal business activities, regardless of whether R&D activities are the core of their business or are only ancillary to their main business. activities. These options apply to all tax entities investing in development activities, regardless of whether they are natural persons (entrepreneurs), small legal entities or large multinational corporations. The aim of this paper is to analyze the application of supercomputing to research and development by entrepreneurs in the context of the financial situation of companies in the Slovak Republic in 2018 using financial and statistical indicators.

Abstract:
Objectives: Breast cancer is the cancer with the highest incidence in women in Brazil. The revelation of this diagnosis is considered a crucial moment, responsible for uncertainties and even affecting the doctor–patient relationship. Although the communication of bad news is one of the most frequent practices among physicians, difficulties are common. The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of the communication in the diagnosis of breast cancer and the repercussions on the treatment, using the parameters as suggested by the Centro Avançado de Diagnóstico de Câncer de Mama (CORA/ HC-UFG) in Goiânia-GO. Methodology: This qualitative and integrative study was conducted in the following databases: PubMed, SciELO, and MedLine with six selected articles. The keywords used were “communication,” “diagnosis,” “breast cancer,” “adherence to treatment,” and “doctor–patient relationship.” Based on the results, a comparison was made with the one carried out in the CORA/HC-UFG. Results: Through the analysis of the articles, it was observed that the no tification of the diagnosis of cancer is considered a critical moment and how professionals notify patients directly interferes in the relationship of the patients with the diagnosis itself. Thus, it is up to the professionals to provide psychological and informative support at the time of diagnosis in order to reduce pessimistic feelings and to avoid abandoning the medical–hospital follow-up. In addition, when analyzing the care provided at CORA, it was noted that the adoption of a more humanized and multiprofessional communication, with the help of the psychological team, it was noticed, in agreement with the studies, a better acceptance and treatment adherence. Conclusion: The notification of cancer should be done in the most empathetic way possible, using techniques of psychology and communication, so that the patient receives information about his health situation in a welcoming manner. Furthermore, although the diagnostic communication is a medical act, the presence of a psychologist to support the patient has shown benefits.
