Abstract:
We sought to explore the daily association between shame and self-criticism, and the extent to which this association varies as a function of social anxiety symptoms. Fifty-nine undergraduate students completed a measure of social anxiety symptoms at a baseline meeting and then completed measures of shame experienced during significant social interactions and self-criticism following those interactions twice daily for 10 days. Social anxiety symptoms predicted more shame during daily social interactions and more self-criticism following them. Additionally, shame predicted subsequent self-criticism. This relationship was moderated by levels of social anxiety symptoms, such that those with higher levels of social anxiety symptoms exhibited high levels of self-criticism following daily social interactions characterized by both high and low shame, whereas those with lower levels of social anxiety symptoms showed high levels of self-criticism only after interactions with high levels of shame. These findings are consistent with the notion that self-criticism may serve as a regulatory coping method when experiencing shame, and that social anxiety difficulties are related to an inflexibly high level of self-criticism.

Abstract:
Aims:Shame and pride have important implications in educational contexts for pupils and educators alike. The aim of this study was to investigate whether adolescents’ growth (intelligence) mindset is associated with reduced shame experiences and increased pride experiences, within a secondary school context. We tested perceived academic competence as a mediator of the hypothesised relations between a growth mindset and feelings of shame and pride.Method:Secondary school students (N=121, M age=14.28 years) completed the Scale of Personal Conceptions of Intelligence to measure their beliefs about the nature of their abilities (i.e. mindset) and then completed a brief online diary for 10 days. Participants rated their daily shame and pride experiences, as well as their daily perceptions of academic competence.Findings:Results revealed a negative relation between growth mindset and daily shame intensity, and a positive relation between growth mindset and daily pride intensity. Both associations were mediated by perceived academic competence.Limitations:We identified limitations, including the possibility that participants’ conceptions of shame and pride may have varied, and the reliance on self-report methods of data collection.Conclusions:Adolescents who endorse a growth mindset experience less shame and more pride at school. Stronger perceptions of academic competence account for this emotional signature of the growth mindset.

Abstract:
Introduction: Whereas the act-person model of shame emphasizes negative self-appraisals, the sociometer theory roots shame in real or imagined social evaluation. If so, shame might increase vulnerability to psychosocial stressors and manifest in social anxiety specifically. We investigated how shame-proneness predicted concurrent symptoms and responses to daily interpersonal stressors. Method: A total of 159 participants (including those meeting anxiety/depression criteria in clinical interviews; n = 58) completed baseline measures of shame- and guilt-proneness, trait negative affect (NA), and social anxiety, depression, and generalized anxiety disorder symptoms, followed by stressor diaries for 5 weeks (1,923 diaries). Results: Even with NA and guilt-proneness controlled, shame-proneness uniquely predicted concurrent social anxiety and prospectively predicted experiencing social evaluation. Unique links to depression and nonspecific anxiety and worry were less consistent. Discussion: Specificity in shame-social evaluation links supported sociometer theory, Results have implications both for shame theory and clinical practice with shame-prone individuals.

Abstract:
Aims In this lecture I will define and distinguish between shame and guilt. I will then discuss the potential causes of shame and guilt and how these emotions manifest in behavioral and phenomenal terms. I will conclude by introducing a classification that deals with the varieties and nature of the pathologies of shame and guilt that are evident in clinical practice. I will rely on concepts developed by Karl Jaspers, Hans Jonas and Bernhard Schlink. In doing this I will be exploring the role of moral and juridical principles upon the experience of shame and guilt including the place of the imperatives of responsibility upon the experience of shame and guilt. I will argue further that shame and guilt are as important as other secondary emotions such as envy and jealousy but are not as examined and studied in clinical practice. I will make a case for the centrality of these emotions to an understanding of and response to particular clinical conditions in daily practice.MethodsN/A.ResultsN/A.ConclusionsShame and Guilt are both important emotions that are central to our understanding of and response to particular conditions in daily practice. Their antecedents and structure provide a basis for distinguishing between them.Disclosure of interestThe author has not supplied his declaration of competing interest.

Abstract:
The article attempts to consider emotional perception and normative orientation in reading with an emphasis on such emotions as shame. Reading is a significant part of the daily lives of researchers, and obviously there are a number of social norms around and about reading. In the course of the research, an assumption was made that the normative expectations relevant to the reader are able to create a ground for experiencing shame. Phenomenological analysis of interviews and focus group materials with researchers allowed us to identify reasons for shame about professional and leisure reading in relation to regulatory constraints, some explanations of this experience, as well as related features of motivation to read. The experience of shame in relation to reading comes from the perception of the researcher himself in the modification of reading and the corresponding normative expectations – so, the manifestation of shame was recorded in discussions about both work and leisure reading. It turned out that reading both scientific and leisure literature is perceived by researchers as their status duty, in this regard, its "inadequacy" becomes a key reason for experiencing shame.

Abstract:
Includes bibliographical references.
This work analyses the depiction of coloured women on trial for murder in South Africa’s Western Cape tabloids, the Daily Voice and Son. It argues that these depictions preserve conservative race, class, and gender norms. The coverage of the murder trials of Najwa Petersen, Ellen Pakkies, Zulfa Jacobs, and Chantel Booysen constructs a notion of illegitimate femininity that is rooted in apartheid and colonial discourse on coloured femininity. The ideologies present in this coverage indicate how themes of sexuality; motherhood; victimhood and trauma; class and community; and religion expel the threat female offenders pose to traditional performances of identity. This work is motivated by the shortage of local research on the depiction of female offenders. While international research have developed useful typologies for how female offenders are represented, and have shown how these depictions are sites for the communication of gender expectations, an acknowledgement of the diversity of women’s experiences necessitates a focus on how local discourses of race, class, and gender further influence these representations. Moreover, this work is motivated by the opportunity to offer an indication of how tabloid content works ideologically. By focusing on the depiction of women on trial for murder, this work offers a snapshot of the discourses on race, gender, and class that circulate in the publics created by these titles. The construction of deviant femininity, and its intersection with 'colouredness’ and a working-class identity, is the means through which the status quo is communicated. This work relies on a Foucauldian frame to privilege the power of discourse to construct identity, and the work of Judith Butler to consider how identity is produced and performed under constraint. In line with this focus on language, and due to a specific consideration of the Cape Flats vernacular, this work employs critical discourse analysis to analyse a purposive sample of the coverage of Petersen, Pakkies, Jacobs, and Booysen’s murder trials. Interviews conducted with journalists who have authored these tabloid accounts, and focus groups with tabloid readers who hail from the Cape Flats supplement this analysis. The results of this triangulation indicate the complex interaction between discourses in subduing the threat female offenders pose to normative identities. It also indicates the potential for tabloid newspapers to cement hegemonic and essentialised notions of racialised gender identities, despite South Africa’s post-apartheid context. Tabloids’ recognition of marginalised subjects does not automatically signify democratic transformation, partly because such subjects are represented by corporate monopolies who rely on cultural translators to communicate fixed ways of being. If media are to transform, they need to break from the apartheid era's subjugating and pathologising discourses. This work demonstrates that an interrogation of race, class, and gender politics is crucial for analysing South African tabloids’ contribution to public discourse.

Abstract:
Le teorie psicodinamiche ed i modelli auto-regolatori del narcisismo suggeriscono che la vergogna sia un affetto chiave delle patologie narcisistiche. In effetti, le recenti concettualizzazioni del narcisismo patologico includono sia temi grandiosi che temi vulnerabili, entro una comune disfunzione nella regolazione dell’autostima, e nell’ambito di modalità interpersonali antagonistiche. I presenti lavori si propongono di studiare la relazione tra i tratti di narcisismo patologico e la vergogna in campioni non clinici. In aggiunta a studi precedenti, questi studi considerano il narcisismo da molteplici punti di vista, basandosi su differenti operazionalizzazioni del costrutto. Inoltre, gli studi si focalizzano sia su misure di tratto di narcisismo e vergogna, che su valutazioni di stato degli stessi costrutti. Lo Studio 1 presenta dati trasversali da un campione non clinico (N = 367; Metà = 33.67) per la validazione della versione italiana del Personal Feelings Questionnaire-2 (PFQ-2), una misura di predisposizione alla colpa e alla vergogna maladattive. L’analisi fattoriale confermativa mostra che un modello modificato a due fattori si adatta ai dati e può esser replicato con sufficiente solidità tra uomini e donne. Predisposizione alla colpa e alla vergogna mostrano associazioni coerenti con una serie di misure criterio, mentre sono discusse alcune problematiche relative ad item potenzialmente deboli. In generale, i risultati confermano una distinzione tra vergogna e colpa e supportano la validità del PFQ-2. Lo Studio 2 presenta ulteriori analisi effettuate sui dati già elaborati nello studio precedente. Sono riportate le associazioni trasversali tra il narcisismo patologico (grandioso e vulnerabile) e la predisposizione alla vergogna, basandosi su diverse operazionalizzazioni del costrutto di narcisismo patologico. I risultati mostrano che il narcisismo grandioso di tratto è associato ad una ridotta predisposizione alla vergogna, mentre il narcisismo vulnerabile di tratto ad una maggiore predisposizione alla stessa. Analisi condotte con i facet delle scale di narcisismo mostrano un pattern di associazioni più sfumato, tale per cui gli aspetti legati al potere e le tendenze ostili sono associate ad una ridotta predisposizione alla vergogna, mentre il bisogno di ammirazione, la scarsa fiducia interpersonale, la fragilità dell’autostima e le fantasie grandiose si associano ad una aumentata predisposizione alla vergogna. Lo Studio 3 è uno studio daily diary che approfondisce le esperienze di vergogna in associazione a diverse misure di narcisismo patologico (di tratto e di stato), a specifiche situazioni, e controllando per una serie di potenziali variabili intervenienti (ad es., autostima). Un campione non clinico (N = 196; Metà = 22.32) ha completato delle misure di baseline e risposto a brevi questionari quotidiani per 28 giorni. Analisi multilevel indicano che il narcisismo grandioso di tratto predice la vergogna quotidiana in diversi modelli statistici, mentre il narcisismo vulnerabile di tratto emerge come fattore di rischio specifico per la vergogna soltanto in giorni in cui si fa esperienza di elevato stress a contenuto sociale. La vergogna quotidiana è particolarmente associata alle fantasie grandiose. Allo stesso tempo, il narcisismo grandioso e vulnerabile di stato risultano per lo più positivamente associati alla vergogna quotidiana. Nel complesso, i risultati dimostrano che la vergogna è un’esperienza emotiva con una sua specificità (ad es., rispetto alla colpa), ed evidenziano il ruolo chiave della vergogna nel funzionamento narcisistico patologico. Ciò suggerisce di dar rilievo alle esperienze di vergogna sia nei contesti clinici che in quelli di ricerca.
Attending to both psychodynamic models and self-regulatory models of narcissism, shame is a core affect of narcissistic pathologies. Indeed, recent conceptualizations of pathological narcissim encompass both grandiose and vulnerable themes under a core dysfunction of self-esteem regulation and interpersonal antagonism. The present works aim at investigating the relationship between pathological narcissistic traits and shame in community samples. In addition to previous studies, the current works consider narcissism from multiple perspectives, relying on different operationalizations of the construct. Also, they focus both on dispositional measures of narcissism and shame, as well as state assessments of the constructs. Study 1 presents cross-sectional data from a community sample (N = 367; Mage = 33.67) for the validation of the Italian version of the Personal Feelings Questionnaire-2 (PFQ-2), a measure of maladaptive shame- and guilt-proneness. Confirmatory Factor Analysis shows that a modified two-factor model fits data and can be replicated fairly well across genders. Both guilt- and shame-proneness show sensible associations with criterion measures, whereas concerns regarding potentially weak items are also discussed. Findings globally corroborate a distinction between shame and guilt and support the validity of the PFQ-2. Study 2 presents additional analyses performed on data from the first study. Associations between pathological narcissism (grandiose and vulnerable) and shame-proneness are investigated at the cross-sectional level, adopting different operationalizations of the construct of pathological narcissism. Results show that trait grandiose narcissism is associated with reduced shame-proneness, whereas trait vulnerable narcissism with heightened shame-proneness. Facet-level analyses show a more nuanced pattern of associations, where power-related aspects and hostile tendencies are associated with reduced shame-proneness, whereas need for admiration, low trust, self-esteem fragility and grandiose fantasies are related to higher shame-proneness. Study 3 is a daily diary study investigating experiences of shame in association with different measures of pathological narcissism (trait and state), under different situations, and controlling for potential confounds (e.g., self-esteem). Nonclinical participants (N = 196; Mage = 22.32) completed baseline measures and responded to daily questionnaires for 28 days. Multilevel models indicate that trait grandiose narcissism predicts daily shame across different models, whereas trait vulnerable narcissism only emerges as a specific risk factor for shame when experiencing higher social stress. Daily shame is particularly associated with grandiose fantasies. Also, state grandiose and vulnerable narcissism are mostly positively associated with daily shame. Overall, results demonstrate the specificity of the emotional experience of shame (i.e., compared to guilt), and highlight the key role of shame in pathological narcissistic functioning. This suggests that shame should be acknowledged and recognized both in clinical and research settings.

Abstract:
The purpose of the study was to, from the perspective of the operation coordinators, highlight guilt- and shame in parents whose children have a disability and are covered by the LSS- effort daily activities. Furthermore, to explore how guilt in shame with parents in face of their disabled child affect the work for operations coordinators within daily activities. We have used a qualitative method with semi structured interviews to collect data. In order to analyze the result, we have used social constructivism as a theoretical perspective as well as the client is the expert and dueling realities as applying theories. From the result it emerges that guilt- and shame feelings are found within some parents towards their disabled children within daily activities. Further it emerged that operation coordinators try to have an understanding towards parents that experience these feelings. The work continues with different tools such as collaboration with other business coordinators and managers in daily activities. Other tools such as clarifying pedagogy also facilitate the work. Furthermore, the result shows that the outcome of the work lies in cooperation between operation coordinator and parents. Finally, the result shows that the use of open dialogue between operation coordinators and parents can result in a reversal of the guilt- and shame feelings towards a future were hope and opportunities are at center.
Syftet med studien var att, utifrån verksamhetssamordnares perspektiv, belysa skuld- och skamkänslor hos föräldrar vars barn har en funktionsnedsättning och omfattas av LSS-insatsen daglig verksamhet. Vidare utforska hur skuld och skam hos föräldrar inför sitt funktionsnedsatta barn påverkar arbetet för verksamhetssamordnare inom daglig verksamhet. Vi har använt oss av en kvalitativ metod med semistrukturerade intervjuer för att samla in data. För att analysera resultatet har vi använt oss av socialkonstruktivismen som teoretiskt perspektiv samt klienten är expert och duellerande verkligheter som tillförande teorier. Ur resultatet framkommer det att skuld- och skamkänslor återfinns hos en delföräldrar gentemot sitt barn med en funktionsnedsättning inom daglig verksamhet. Vidare framkom det att verksamhetssamordnare försöker ha en förståelse för de föräldrar som upplever dessa känslor. Arbetet fortsätter med olika hjälpmedel såsom samverkan med andra verksamhetssamordnare och chefer inom daglig verksamhet. Andra hjälpmedel som tydliggörande pedagogik underlättar även i arbetet. Vidare visar resultatet på att arbetet skall resultera i ett samarbete mellan verksamhetssamordnare och föräldrar. Slutligen visar resultatet att nyttjandet av öppna samtal mellan verksamhetssamordnare och föräldrar kan vända de skuld- och skamkänslor som återfinns till en framtidstro där hopp och möjligheter är i centrum.

Abstract:
The motivation of this work is to understand E-shape analysis and how it can be applied to various classification tasks. It has a powerful feature to not only look at what information is contained, but rather how that information looks. This new technique gives E-shape analysis the ability to be language independent and to some extent size independent. In this thesis, I present a new mechanism to characterize an email without using content or context called E-shape analysis for email. I explore the applications of the email shape by carrying out a case study; botnet detection and two possible applications: spam filtering and social-context based finger printing. The second part of this thesis takes what I apply E-shape analysis to activity recognition of humans. Using the Android platform and a T-Mobile G1 phone I collect data from the triaxial accelerometer and use it to classify the motion behavior of a subject.

Abstract:
South African milk producers supply around 8.4 million litres of milk per day. The monetary value of this supply results in a contribution of approximately 6.7% to the gross value of agricultural production. In 2015 producer income was estimated at R14 900 million with an investment capital of around R32 500 million. In South Africa the dairy industry is the fourthlargest of all agricultural industries, creating approximately 20 000 sustainable job opportunities, excluding up and downstream opportunities (MPO, 2016). Both small and large businesses are affected by global trends that are the driving forces behind major changes in the dairy industry. Agri-businesses and farmers are exploring methods to change their strategies, business models and production systems to be able to sustain their competitiveness in the global market. Entry barriers to the global markets and local industry are capital intensive, costly and complex (OABS, 2014). In South Africa the tendency exists where the larger commercial dairy farms are expanding by incorporating smaller farming units. This tendency exists in most countries around the world. This trend will certainly increase the entry barriers for establishing black commercial dairy farmers, despite the pressure of transformation in South Africa. In fact, they would be at greater risk of business failure compared to their more established counterparts in the formal sector due to the lack of access to critical resources and relevant experience. Therefore, alternative business models should be evaluated and implemented to assist with the establishment of black commercial dairy farmers in South Africa. Kirsten and Sartorius (2002) referred to the formation of partnerships between small-scale farmers and thereby increasing their marketing power and enabling them to compete against large-scale farmers. These partnerships would allow the smaller farmers to enjoy the same benefits that their larger counterparts enjoy, as well as reduce managerial inputs required and transaction costs. Milk SA (2014) refers to various success stories of transformation in the primary dairy industry. All of these success stories are based on share-milking agreements, hence the research on how share-milking contributes to the successful establishment of black commercial dairy farmers. The availability of suitable land for dairy production where emerging farmers can be established is also becoming a major constraint. Suitable coastal land will become exhausted; therefore, there is a need for alternative models to establish emerging farmers. Both communal land and privately owned land are currently being used for share-milking projects. The primary dairy industry is not excluded from the proposal stating that all commercial farmers should cede 50% of their land to farmworkers; hence Agri SA's proposal and presentation to the Department of Rural Development and Land Reform (DRDLR). According to Agri SA (2015), proposals should: ● "comply with the Constitution of South Africa; ● give full recognition to economic and market actualities; ● not necessarily be dependent on state support; while ● utilising the potential of private-public partnerships as far as possible; ● adhere to the NDP framework" (Agri SA, 2015). Agri SA (2015) referred to the share-milking scheme at Reebok Rant as an alternative to the 50/50 proposal from Government.

Full text
Abstract:
Rising obesity rates and low physical activity levels among children and youth are a global concern due to links to adverse health outcomes, poor quality of life, and an increased burden on the health care system. One response to the problem has been the implementation of school-based physical activity and nutrition policies. For example, the Ontario Ministry of Education’s Daily Physical Activity (DPA) Policy mandates that all elementary school students receive at least 20 minutes of physical activity per day. This exploratory research sought to understand the local-level factors shaping implementation of DPA, from the perspective of elementary school teachers and principals. Qualitative in-depth interviews were conducted with Ontario grade 1-8 teachers (n=14) and elementary school principals (n=5) regarding DPA implementation, facilitators, barriers, perceived outcomes, and suggestions for change. Interviews were audio recorded (with permission) and transcribed verbatim for subsequent thematic analysis using NVivo. Although all but two participants indicated they had implemented DPA, the majority reported that students were not meeting the requirement daily. Findings were organized using the Analysis Grid for Environments Linked to Obesity (ANGELO) framework. Implementation facilitators were focused within the microenvironment (i.e., classrooms and schools), while barriers were identified within both the micro- and macroenvironments (i.e., classrooms, schools, school boards, and the Ministry of Education). Both teachers and principals considered DPA a lower priority than other subjects, partly because of limited monitoring of implementation within schools and school boards. Participants discussed student benefits resulting from DPA; however, student fitness was not identified as a positive outcome- in fact, some questioned whether the policy is improving student physical activity levels. The results suggest the status of DPA results from a failure of implementation rather than a failure of concept. Participants believed increasing student physical activity levels was important; however, they argued that factors within the classroom, school, school board, and Ministry of Education limit the feasibility of delivering DPA. This thesis contributes to the limited literature regarding the evaluation of DPA implementation and outcomes by exploring the perspectives of teachers and principals implementing the policy. Substantive, methodological, and theoretical contributions to the school-based physical activity literature are discussed, followed by policy implications and directions for future research.

Abstract:
AbstractDealing with the growing quest for better governance, the advancement of ICT provides new methods and tools to politicians and their cabinets on an almost daily basis. In this changing landscape, the PoliVisu project constitutes a step forward from the evidence-based decision making, going towards an experimental approach supported by the large variety of available data sets. Through utilizing advanced data gathering, processing and visualisation techniques, the PoliVisu platform is one of the most recent integrated examples promoting the experimental dimension of policy making at a municipal and regional level.

Abstract:
AbstractLivestock sector is the backbone of Indian agriculture and plays a crucial role in the development of the rural economy. More than one-fifth (23%) of agricultural households with area less than 0.01 hectare reported livestock as their principal source of income (GoI Government of India (2014) Key indicators of situation of agricultural). Livestock is one of the fastest-growing sectors of Indian agriculture. While the share of overall agriculture and allied sectors in Gross Value Added (GVA) declined from 18.2% in 2014–15 to 17.8% in 2019–20, the share of livestock sector in GVA increased from 4.4% to 5.1% in the same period (GoI Government of India (2021) The economic survey (2020–21). Ministry of Finance. Government of India). Livestock sector accounts for 31% of the gross value of output in agriculture and allied sector (GVOA). Within livestock, milk is the biggest component with 20% share in GVOA. In fact, milk is the largest agriculture commodity in terms of value of output worth INR 772,705 crores in 2018–19 which was more than the value of cereals, pulses, oilseeds and sugarcane combined worth INR 623,462 crores (MoSPI. (2021). National Accounts Statistics 2020. Central Statistical Organization. Ministry of Statistics and Program Implementation.). Around 70 million of rural households are engaged in milk production, most of them are landless, marginal, and small farmers (NCAER. (2020). Analyzing Socio-Economic Impact of National Dairy Plan—I. National Council for Applied Economic Research. February 2020.). As a source of livelihood for million of poor households, dairying also supplements their dietary sources of protein and nutrition thus playing a critical role in the country’s food security needs.

Abstract:
AbstractIn this contribution, we propose a reflection on the potential of data visualisation technologies for (informed) public policy making in a growingly complex and fast changing landscape—epitomized by the situation created after the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic. Based on the results of an online survey of more than 50 data scientists from all over the world, we highlight five application areas seeing the biggest needs for innovation according to the domain specialists. Our main argument is that we are facing a transformation of the business cases supporting the adoption and implementation of data visualisation methods and tools in government, which the conventional view of the value of Business Intelligence does not capture in full. Such evolution can drive a new wave of innovations that preserve (or restore) the human brain’s centrality in a decision making environment that is increasingly dominated—for good and bad—by artificial intelligence. Citizen science, design thinking, and accountability are mentioned as triggers of civic engagement and participation that can bring a community of “knowledge intermediaries” into the daily discussion on data supported policy making.

AbstractIn my chapter I discuss the process of creating comprehensive embodied urban cartographies of women’s daily trajectories to work by public transportation in Guadalajara, Mexico. I argue that mapping methods can be used as a feminist tool to reveal the power structures that shape women’s urban experience and to analyse how those assemblages are lived from an embodied and intersectional perspective. I underline the relevance of such a perspective showing how feminist cartographies help to re-draw more equitable urban geographies.

AbstractArtificial intelligence is not just another technology – it is a ‘system technology’ that will fundamentally change our society. That is the key message of this report. Government and society therefore need to be much more aware of and actively involved in AI’s integration into daily life. The government in particular needs to focus on five overarching tasks to help shape the integration process, because only then will it be able to continue to protect the civic values affected by AI. Such a challenge demands a policy infrastructure that reflects both a political and an administrative commitment.

Abstract:
Splayfoot seems not serious diseases. However, it cause fatigue in the daily life. In that sense, if we can solve these problems it might support daily life much comfortable especially for elder people. To support splayfoot, there are some commercial ones. But they just add small amount of support and not made up for each person. Besides, when the height of support is not suitable for patients, it sometimes makes situation worse. We have tried it and measured by using myoelectric potential measurements, and see differences of three patients. Even if we use the same commercial support its effectiveness differs to each other and sometimes it makes worse. Physical therapists make foot support for each patient but they make them owing to their experience. There are studies on the positions of bone of foot and its portrait of the desired positions has been reported by medical doctors. One of them is called Mizuno standard [1]. In the previous study, we tried to design foot support aiming to make portrait of this standard in vertical space. For that purpose, we used approximate multi-objective optimization using Radial Basis Function network. For validation, we used electromyography again. As a result the foot support by the proposed method showed the maximum reduction in integral of myoelectric. However, in the previous study [2], we only used two design variables, and we have only designed vertical phase. Therefore, we have not completely designed the support. In this study, we use 3D spline expression to make support, and try to design 3D shape of support. In validation, the results of approximate multi-objective optimization show the best reduction in integral of myoelectric, and show the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Abstract:
The effect of the COVID-19 pandemic transformed the lives of all people. The vaccination process worldwide, in a way, is creating the necessary conditions to return to face-to-face attendance in daily work activities. In this sense, the research focuses on establishing whether people who are working in person have been affected by their daily activities in their work environment with other colleagues. An online survey was conducted, from which a total of N = 202 participants was taken. Aspects related to efficiency and effectiveness in the workplace, and whether stress affected their performance, were addressed. The results show that the biggest stress for participants is having to share activities with larger groups of people, regardless of whether biosecurity standards are respected.

Abstract:
The share of products with higher added value is constantly decreasing in Slovakia's agri-food exports and the share of basic agricultural raw materials with low added value is increasing. Commercial retail chains sell especially products without added value. On the other side, products that have undergone a processing are imported from abroad. According to the latest survey of the Slovak Food Chamber of Agriculture in 2016, the share of Slovak products on retailers and retail chains is only 39.91%, with 38.9% in 2015 and 2014.with increase of only 1%. Most of the agri-food products produced in Slovakia are at most represented in commodities: eggs, milk, honey and at least in the following categories: processed vegetables, packaged meat and processed fruit. The main objective of presented paper is to show, that Slovak farmers rather sell raw milk instead of selling added value processed products. A big difference can be found between milk and dairy products, where up to 20% is the difference in the representation of these products in the commercial chains. This fact means, that the Slovak farmers produce enough milk, but it is convenient for them to sell milk as a raw material instead of processing it in their own direction and selling the processed products. Raw milk is exported abroad and then comes back to the Slovak market with an added value as processed product. The survey, which was carried out on all trade chains, showed that the share of Slovak milk in the chain is 63%. An important finding is also the presence of individual dairy products that are produced in Slovakia. The result of the survey showed that the largest share of Slovak dairy products in the domestic market is 51% cottage cheese and sweet / sour cream 55% lowest ripening cheese 40%and processed cheese and cheese spread 43%.

Abstract:
The paper presents the results of a research project aiming at developing an innovative framework for conceptual design of products based on innovative haptic interfaces. The framework consists of a CAD (Computer Aided Design) system enhanced with intuitive interaction tools and modalities for modeling, modification and evaluation of shapes. The system aims at exploiting designers’ skills in modeling products, improving the products design process by reducing the necessity to build several physical models for evaluating and testing the product designs. The system proposes an emotional engineering approach by supporting product designers in translating their sensibility into physical design factors, allowing easy and fast creation and evaluation of diverse shape solutions. The system requirements have been defined after observing designers during their daily work and translating the way they evaluate and modify shapes using hands and craft tools into specifications for the modeling system and the haptic tool. The system prototype has been tested by designers who have found it intuitive and effective to use.

Full text
Abstract:
The authors have studied daily decision-making processes in groups under uncertainty, with an exploratory field study in the medical domain. The work follows the tradition of naturalistic decision-making (NDM) research. It aims to understand how groups in this high reliability context conceptualize and internalize uncertainties, and how they handle them in order to achieve effective decision-making in their everyday activities. Analysis of the survey data shows that uncertainty is thought of in terms of issues and sources (as identified by previous research), but also (possibly a domain-specific observation) as a lack of personal knowledge or skill. Uncertainty is accompanied by emotions of fear and shame. It arises during the diagnostic process, the treatment process and the outcome of medical decision making. The most frequently cited sources of uncertainty are partly lacking information and inadequate understanding owing to instability of information. Descriptions of typical group decisions reveal that the individual himself is a source of uncertainty when a lack of knowledge, skills and expertise is perceived. The group can serve as a source of uncertainty if divergent opinions in the decision making group exist. Three different situations of group decisions are identified: Interdisciplinary regular meetings (e.g. tumor conferences), formal ward meetings and ad hoc consultations. In all healthcare units concerned by the study, only little use of structured decision making procedures and processes is reported. Strategies used to handle uncertainty include attempts to reduce uncertainty by collecting additional information, delaying action until more information is available or by soliciting advice from other physicians. The factors which ultimately determine group decisions are hierarchy (the opinion of more senior medical staff carries more weight than that of junior staff), patients’ interest and professional competence. Important attributes of poor group decisions are the absence of consensus and the use of hierarchy as the predominant decision criterion. On the other hand, decisions judged to be effective are marked by a sufficient information base, a positive discussion culture and consensus. The authors identify four possible obstacles to effective decision making: a steep hierarchy gradient, a poor discussion culture, a strong need for consensus, and insufficient structure and guidance of group decision making processes. A number of intervention techniques which have been shown in other industries to be effective in improving some of these obstacles are presented.

The Prediction of Daily Intake in Grazing Cattle Using Methodologies, Models and Experiments that Integrate Pasture Structure and Ingestive Behavior. United States Department of Agriculture, July 1994. http://dx.doi.org/10.32747/1994.7568789.bard.

Full text
Abstract:
This project addressed the prediction of daily intake in grazing cattle using methodologies, models and experiments that integrate pasture structure and ingestive behavior. The broad objective was to develop concepts of optimal foraging that predicted ingestive behavior and instantaneous intake rate in single and multi-patch environments and extend them to the greater scales of time and space required to predict daily intake. Specific objectives included: to determine how sward structure affects the shape of patch depletion curves, to determine if the basic components of ingestive behavior of animals in groups differs from animals alone, and to evaluate and modify our existing models of foraging behavior and heterogeneity to incorporate larger scales of time and space. Patch depletion was found to be predominantly by horizon, with a significant decline in bite weight during horizon depletion. This decline derives from bite overlap, and is more pronounced on taller swards. These results were successfully predicted by a simple bite placement simulator. At greater spatial scales, patch selection was aimed at maximizing daily digestible intake, with the between patch search pattern being non-random. The processes of selecting a feeding station and foraging at a feeding station are fundamentally different. The marginal value theorem may not be the most appropriate paradigm for predicting residence time at a feeding station. Basic components of ingestive behavior were unaffected by the presence of other animals. Our results contribute to animal production systems by improving our understanding of the foraging process, by identifying the key sward parameters that determine intake rate and by improving existing conceptual and quantitative models of foraging behavior across spatial and temporal scales.

Condition being studied: In Europe, more than 1 million new cases of stroke are reported each year. The absolute number of stroke patients is expected to increase in the near future due to the progressive aging of the population. Approximately 50-80% of stroke survivors present with upper extremity dysfunction. Recovery of upper extremity function is associated with improvements in activities of daily living and mental health. However, few stroke survivors show full recovery of upper extremity function 6 months after stroke. In addition, rehabilitation has a limited impact on the recovery of hand motor function.

Full text
Abstract:
At their most basic level taxes carry, in the words of Schumpeter ([1918] 1991), “the thunder of history” (p. 101). They say something about the ever-changing structures of social, economic, and political life. Taxes offer a blueprint, in both symbolic and concrete terms, for uncovering the most fundamental arrangements in society – stratification included. The historical retellings captured within these data highlight the politics of taxation in Alabama from 1856 to 1901, including conflicts over whom money is expended upon as well as struggles over who carries their fair share of the tax burden. The selected timeline overlaps with the formation of five of six constitutions adopted in the State of Alabama, including 1861, 1865, 1868, 1875, and 1901. Having these years as the focal point makes for an especially meaningful case study, given how much these constitutional formations made the state a site for much political debate. These data contain 5,121 pages of periodicals from newspapers throughout the state, including: Alabama Sentinel, Alabama State Intelligencer, Alabama State Journal, Athens Herald, Daily Alabama Journal, Daily Confederation, Elyton Herald, Mobile Daily Tribune, Mobile Tribune, Mobile Weekly Tribune, Morning Herald, Nationalist, New Era, Observer, Tuscaloosa Observer, Tuskegee News, Universalist Herald, and Wilcox News and Pacificator. The contemporary relevance of these historical debates manifests in Alabama’s current constitution which was adopted in 1901. This constitution departs from well-established conventions of treating the document as a legal framework that specifies a general role of governance but is firm enough to protect the civil rights and liberties of the population. Instead, it stands more as a legislative document, or procedural straightjacket, that preempts through statutory material what regulatory action is possible by the state. These barriers included a refusal to establish a state board of education and enact a tax structure for local education in addition to debt and tax limitations that constrained government capacity more broadly. Prohibitive features like these are among the reasons that, by 2020, the 1901 Constitution has been amended nearly 1,000 times since its adoption. However, similar procedural barriers have been duplicated across the U.S. since (e.g., California’s Proposition 13 of 1978). Reference: Schumpeter, Joseph.

Abstract:
This study describes the perception, adoption, and acceptance factors involved in the deployment of digital technologies for public health in Latin America and considers the implications for future digital health interventions. We conducted a descriptive analysis using nationally representative data from a phone survey conducted in 2020 in 10 countries in Latin America. We found that early in the pandemic, in countries with existing applications, 74% of the population used a smartphone, 47% had knowledge of the government app to report symptoms, but only 2% reported using it. Those interviewed reported that they are willing to share their personal data during a pandemic (61%) 50 percentage points higher than in non-pandemic times, although understanding how their personal data was used by the government and private companies was extremely low. More than 70% reported that they would use an application to report symptoms and would use an app that accesses their location or that uses contact tracing technology to alert them about possible exposure. Also, at least half of the users agree with preventive measures against COVID-19 such as daily follow-up calls, tracking via GPS for quarantine enforcement, and daily visits. In all countries, adoption of digital technologies increases if individuals or their relatives report they are infected; it decreases when end-users do not trust the anonymity policies or are concerned about government surveillance. Yet, encouraging greater adoption of digital technologies strongly depends on who designed the technology. Results show that 73% of users would prefer an app designed by an international organization such as the WHO to an app designed by the local government (64%) or a telephone company (56%). The study concludes with a reflection on the promising results of digital technologies and discusses the importance of considering users perceptions, factors for acceptance, and trust when pursuing adoption of digital technologies.

Abstract:
Vegetable oil is a daily food product, on the quality of which our health depends. It is not only a building and energy material, but also exhibits functional properties. Vegetable oil occupies the main share of the domestic market of oil and fat products. At catering establishments, vegetable oil is used to prepare various dishes, the requirements for these products are quite high, so the company often faces the question of which vegetable oils to use? which of them have the best qualities?

Abstract:
Only three out of five children are enrolled in preschool globally, and only one out of five in low-income countries, yet the expansion of preschool education came to a near standstill in 2020. To restart it, we propose a policy instrument called the Preschool Entitlement. It entails the right of every child to 600 hours of quality government-funded preschool education per year (3 hours per day, 5 days per week, 40 weeks per year). Existing preschool institutions and other organizations with legal status (public, private, faith- or community-based) can offer the child development program after a process of rigorous accreditation to ensure quality, inclusion, and safety. In other respects, they will have the freedom to shape the program according to local circumstances and local preferences. This makes it possible to supplement the daily 3 hours with additional hours of childcare that can be financed by families, local government, employers, national associations, faith-based organizations, ministries of social affairs, or others. In this manner, the Preschool Entitlement reconciles local autonomy with governmental responsibility for quality, access, and equity. In low- and middle-income countries, government costs would range from about 0.15 to 0.4 percent of GDP, and the benefits are likely to be significant.

Abstract:
Participating in the exemplar landscapes of the Developing and Promoting Market-Based Agroforestry and Forest Rehabilitation Options for Northwest Vietnam project has had positive impacts on ethnic women, such as increasing their networks and decision-making and public speaking skills. However, the rate of female farmers accessing and using project extension material or participating in project nurseries and applying agroforestry techniques was limited. This requires understanding of the real needs and interests grounded in the socio-cultural contexts of the ethnic groups living in the Northern Mountain Region in Viet Nam, who have unique social and cultural norms and values. The case studies show that agricultural activities are highly gendered: men and women play specific roles and have different, particular constraints and interests. Women are highly constrained by gender norms, access to resources, decision-making power and a prevailing positive-feedback loop of time poverty, especially in the Hmong community. A holistic, timesaving approach to addressing women’s daily activities could reduce the effects of time poverty and increase project participation. As women were highly willing to share project information, the project’s impacts would be more successful with increased participation by women through utilizing informal channels of communication and knowledge dissemination. Extension material designed for ethnic women should have less text and more visuals. Access to information is a critical constraint that perpetuates the norm that men are decision-makers, thereby, enhancing their perceived ownership, whereas women have limited access to information and so leave final decisions to men, especially in Hmong families. Older Hmong women have a Vietnamese (Kinh) language barrier, which further prevents them from accessing the project’s material. Further research into an adaptive framework that can be applied in a variety of contexts is recommended. This framework should prioritize time-saving activities for women and include material highlighting key considerations to maintain accountability among the project’s support staff.
