Abstract:

Abstract Living environments profoundly influence the aging process. This symposium presents research on two main aspects of the living environment and their relationships with cognitive health. The living environment is broadly defined, including both physical and social aspects. The physical environment is the characteristics of the built environment, such as tripping hazard in the home, cleanness of the community streets, and presence of deserted buildings, etc. The social environment is the cohesiveness with other people living in the neighborhood. Living environments have multiple layers; the physical environments encompass both in-home and in-community domains, whereas the social environment can be categorized as domestic versus community cohesiveness. This symposium includes studies with investigation scopes spanning from the micro to mezzo levels. The first presentation scrutinizes the buffering effect of marital relationships, as a form of domestic social environments, on cognition among older adults with vision and hearing impairments. Using the NHATS dataset, the second presentation examines social isolation as a potential mediator for the association between physical, social environments and global cognitive functioning. The third presentation evaluates the impact of living environments on cognition among Canadian older adults with multimorbidity. The last presentation examines how the physical environment affects sleep quality and thus influences older adults’ cognition. All four presentations are closely linked to the overarching theme of evaluating the environmental impact on cognition and provide possible explanations mediating the association observed. This symposium contributes to advancing gerontological knowledge by offering new perspectives on the social determinants of cognitive health.

Abstract:

The Kurdish people's interest in the natural environment goes back to ancient times, due to the characteristics and survival of the natural environment of Kurdistan, which has been established in accordance with religious and scientific documents. The purpose of this study is how to develop the mindset and conservation of the natural environment within the framework of social reforms and its application to the behavior and life of the people concerned, on the other hand, to investigate the decisions on the protection of the natural environment, such as the Advanced Model In this age. And its adaptation to environmental principles originates from the religious and spiritual movement. As a result of merging into the national movement, it later became a moral constellation, and to this day, in addition to life changes, these practices, as a successful experience, can be considered one of the sources of the regulation of environmental protection law.

Abstract:

Without self-understanding we cannot hope for Enduring solutions to environmental problems, Which are fundamentally human problems. —Yi-Fu Tuan, 1974 Human beings interact both with the social world and nature. Both, economic development and stable environment are required for the continual improvement of lifestyle and living standards of the people in the society and for the Earth Community as a whole. But until now, the development was human oriented and limited to rich nations. The development was achieved by damaging the environment and over exploitation of natural resources which were nonrenewable. That caused instability of environment and crossed the threshold limit of environmental damage. The major challenge of our times is to find new and practical ways of drawing inspiration from the rich diversity of human experience as well as modern scientific insights in order to establish effective means of governing human behavior to ensure that we contribute to the prosperity of the whole Earth Community instead of destroying it.

Abstract:

Man is born with his environment. And lives among them. In other words, the whole society lives among the environment, that is, in the lap of nature. But for this life, man mainly depends on environment.In order to keep his life running smoothly and to make it better, man constantly tries and for this he exploits natural resources.In this way, man has continued his life from natural resources till today. Due to which there is some damage to nature. Because man has used such chemicals in the blindness of modernity. Which is extremely harmful for nature.Now the question arises whether humans stop their development. No, he can continue his development without harming nature or the environment. It is just a matter of necessity that whatever he does should not harm the environment because if that damage is causing harm to the environment. So man is doing his own loss indirectly. Global warming and ozone depleting greenhouse effect, etc. are examples that directly illustrate the harm caused by humans to the environment. मनुष्य अपने पर्यावरण के साथ ही जन्म लेता है। और उसके बीच ही अपना जीवन यापन करता है। दूसरे शब्दों में सारा समाज पर्यावरण के बीच अर्थात प्रकृति की गोद में अपना जीवन यापन करता है। किन्तु इस जीवनयापन के लिए मनुष्य मुख्य रूप से पर्यावरण पर निर्भर करता है। अपने जीवन को सुचारू रूप से चलाए रखने एवं उसे और अधिक बेहतर बनाने के लिए मनुष्य निरंतर प्रयास करता है तथा इसके लिए वह प्राकृतिक संसाधनों का दोहन करता है। इस प्रकार मनुष्य आदिम युग से आज तक निरंतर प्रकृतिक संसाधनों से अपना जीवन चलाता आया है। जिससे प्रकृति को कुछ नुकसान भी पहुंचा है। क्योंकि मनुष्य ने आधुनिकता की अंधीदौड में ऐसे रसायनों का प्रयोग किया है। जो प्रकृति के लिए अत्यंत नुकसानदेह है। अब प्रश्न यह उठता है कि क्या मनुष्य अपना विकास बंद करदे। नहीं वह अपना विकास बिना प्रकृति या पर्यावरण को नुकसान पहुंचाए भी जारी रख सकता है। बस आवश्यकता है तो इस बात की कि वह जो भी करे उससे पर्यावरण को नुकसान न पहुंचे क्योंकि यदि वह नुकसान पर्यावरण को पहुंचा रहा है। तो परोक्ष रूप से मनुष्य अपना नुकसान स्वयं कर रहा है। वैश्विक तापवृद्धि एवं ओजोनक्षरण ग्रीनहाउस प्रभाव बढ़ना इत्यादि ऐसे उदाहरण हैं जो मानव द्वारा पर्यावरण को पहुंचाए जा रहे नुकसानों को प्रत्यक्ष रूप से बयान करते हैं।

From time immemorial modern man has set many measures of progress and progress. Man has progressed along with the development of intelligence.

Abstract:

The social environment is changing in the sub-continent as a result of which the fundamental qualities of environmental components are changing. Environmental testing is essential for a healthy life, the need to conserve scarce and priceless resources for the use of new and untapped resources for the conduct of development has made environmental management infinitely important. 1It is also very important to make the environment aware, sensitive and aware, it is necessary to explain to the people how our environment or ecological system ensures our protection from natural disasters and protection and enhancement of the environment and human intervention on a global scale. Due to the continuous damage to the environment balance and ecology due to this, not only will the weather, climate and other types of geographical conditions have seen unprecedented changes but also the rate of natural disasters and damage to the environment are mutually mutually beneficial. All the countries of the world should try to compensate for this by establishing mutual coordination among themselves. Development is important for us, but conservation and promotion of environment is more important than that. सामाजिक पर्यावरण ;ठपव ैवबपंस म्दअपतवदउमदजद्धमें परिवर्तित हो रहा है फलस्वरूप पर्यावरण संघटों के मौलिक गुणों में परिर्वतन हो रहा है। स्वस्थ जीवन के लिए पर्यावरणीय परीक्षण आवश्यक है, विकास के संचालन के लिए नत्य व अनत्य संसाधनों को उपयोग दुर्लभ एवं अमूल्य संसाधनों के संरक्षण की आवश्यकता ने पर्यावरण प्रबन्धन को अव्यन्त महत्वपूर्ण बना दिया है। 1पर्यावरण के प्रति सचेत संवदेनशील तथा जागरूक बनाया जाना भी बेहद जरूरी है, लोगो को यह समझाया जाना आवश्यक है कि आखिर हमारा पर्यावरण या परिस्थितिक तंत्र कैसे प्राकृतिक आपदाओं से हमारी सुरक्षा सुनिश्चित करता है तथा पर्यावरण का संरक्षण व सवर्द्धन तथा उसको वैश्विक स्तर पर मानवीय हस्तक्षेप के कारण जिस प्रकार पर्यावरण संतुलन तथा पारिस्थितिक को लगातार क्षति पहुचायी गयी है, उससे न सिर्फ मौसम, जलवायु तथा अन्य प्रकार की भौगोलिक परिस्थितियों में अप्रत्यशित परिवर्तन देखने को मिले बल्कि प्राकृतिक आपदाओं की दर तथा पर्यावरण को हुई क्षति के लिए परस्पर एक-दूसरे पर दोषारोपण करने के वजाय विश्व के सभी देशों को आपस में परस्पर समन्वय सम्बन्ध स्थापित करके इसकी भरपाई के लिए प्रयास करने चाहिए। हमार लिए विकास जरूरी है मगर पर्यावरण का संरक्षण तथा संवर्द्धन उससे कही अधिक जरूरी है।

Abstract:

Cooperative behaviour among unrelated individuals is an evolutionary paradox. Research suggests that an individual’s propensity to cooperate and its response to experiencing cooperation or defection from its social environment consistently varies among individuals and as a function of external factors. The biological and psychological underpinnings of such behavioural variation remain unknown; they can, however, provide more insight into the evolution and maintenance of cooperation among non-kin. This thesis explores the proximate effects of experiences of cooperation or defection from the social environment, as well as possible proximate drivers of cooperative behaviour, using the Trinidadian guppy (Poecilia reticulata) as a study system. Firstly, the behavioural rules underpinning an individual’s decision to cooperate or not with unfamiliar individuals in the presence of specific or non-specific information were explored. When fish had information about their social partner’s cooperativeness, they behaved in a manner consistent with direct reciprocity, copying their partner’s last move. When paired with an ostensibly novel partner, a different, or at least additional, behavioural rule seemed to be employed. In order to help understand the drivers of individual variation in cooperative behaviour, phenotypic selection on cooperativeness was carried out over three filial generations, resulting in fish of high cooperativeness (HC) and low cooperativeness (LC). The divergence of individual cooperativeness observed between the two phenotypic selection lines suggests that cooperative behaviour in the context of predator inspection is at least in part heritable. Cooperative behaviour of F3 fish was found not to correlate with boldness or exploratory behaviour; HC and LC fish did, however, differ in some aspects of sociability and agonistic behaviour. Possible proximate neuromodulatory mechanisms underlying these differences in cooperativeness were also explored, focusing on brain expression patterns for the isotocin receptor (itr) gene in F3 females. HC females were found to have higher mid-section itr expression levels than LC females. Finally, I explored the effects of experiencing cooperation or defection on monoaminergic neurotransmission, which is thought to instantiate the effects of such experiences on the individual’s internal state. My findings suggest that experiencing cooperation or defection from the social environment affects internal state; this phenomenon may be crucial for the appropriate adjustment of the behavioural response to such experiences, and for the emergence of behavioural rules such as generalised reciprocity. Taken together these results suggest that neuromodulatory mechanisms are pivotal for the perception of stimuli from the social environment in the tested cooperative context and that variation in cooperative behaviour may be underpinned by individual differences in the structural properties of such systems. They also provide insight into how behavioural input may affect the behavioural response to such experiences, and ultimately how such mechanisms may lead to the evolution and maintenance of cooperation.

Abstract:

Since the 1970s the number of people suffering from functional somatic syndromes such as fibromyalgia has increased dramatically. These syndromes are characterised by higher levels of incapacity and disability than can be accounted for by objective medical testing. Here the possibility that socially derived labels and health information are contributing to the incapacity experienced by these patients was investigated. Investigations conducted with healthy people found that the way people perceive themselves as behaving, and whether that behaviour is labelled as healthy, influences how satisfied people are with their own health, and their health in comparison to others. It was also found that people who are labelled as unhealthy are evaluated as having less moral worth than those who are not. Further investigations found that the labels used to understand a painful sensation alter the way people respond to that sensation. Investigations with fibromyalgia patients found that the diagnostic label of fibromyalgia changes the information patients have access to, and therefore the information available to interpret their experiences. It was concluded that incapacity in functional syndromes may be partly driven by people being encouraged by to interpret their experiences in a particularly anxiety-provoking way through information in the environment.

Abstract:

Environmental challenges do not exist around by themselves. They are constructed andput in our mind by the key stakeholders, who draw public attention to certain issues. People experience the world through the words of others. Construction of environmental concerns is an ever ongoing process, and we need to be aware about things that can change. In the 60s the world was concerned about limited number of issues, whilst today the planet seems to shout from pain, though in fact amount of problems have hardly raised. It is environmental organizations’ desert that people managed to raise their awareness about the world. This study exposes social constructs of environmental challenges created and narrated through social media by two leading environmental organizations, Greenpeace and the World Wide Fund for Nature. For this purpose, theories of social constructionism and agenda setting serve as the main theoretical framework. Therefore, most actively social media used by ENGOs was identified to be Facebook. The insight to the topic was provided by the content analysis of status updates from both organizations’ fan pages for the period from September 2009 to May 2012. It showed that social constructs of environmental challenges are not equally distributed in the world and number of concerns is disregarded. ENGOs do hope that regular citizens can contribute to sustainability, by giving real support to the projects which aim to have impact on policy makers. Our awareness let changes on the governmental level happen, as ‘when ENGOs speak, people debate, and policy makershear’. Thereby, through media construction of challenges solutions to them are articulated as well.

Abstract:

This thesis aims to increase the sensitivity of foreign tourists who want to rent a flat on Airbnb and let tourists and households take their responsibility of Airbnb through explaining the relationship between Airbnb and social environments. In recent years, Airbnb has been one of the top choices for short-term accommodation renting. However, an issue needing to be cared about is subconsciously affecting the social environment, which is contrary to sustainable development. The text can be divided into two parts. In the first part, the impact of Airbnb on the social environment of big cities will be analyzed from two aspects - sharing economy and gentrification. Social networks and the negative effects are the main content that will be discussed in sharing economy. At the same time, gentrification will respond to it through a typical case study in Barcelona. In the second part, the design project will be analyzed in order to support my theoretical part. Critical design as the core element in my design projects will be analyzed through a communication plan. This plan will become my design proposal to realize the creation of a common network platform in order to attract more attention to this issue.

Full text

Abstract:

The study is a contextual analysis of flood victimization. Victimization is defined as the social, psychological, and physiological aftermath experienced by victims of a disaster. Disaster researchers concentrate on the victims' characteristics to explain the varying degrees of their victimization, providing only ambiguous results. Theorists such as Kreps, Wildavsky, and Douglas contend that the outcomes of disasters are contingent upon social structure. This analysis treats victimization as one such outcome. The condition and behavior of individuals can be explained by the presence of disaster and the conditions of social organization. A model explains victimization based on individual's attributes (individual resources), his social environment, and the disaster characteristics. This study uses the 1984 Mingo Creek Flood Victims Survey data to test the model. The data contain information measuring victimization. The survey data are linked with 1980 Census tract data. The tract data provide indicators of the social networks. This tract information, the contextual variables, taps the social conditions, including poverty, unemployment, geographic mobility, and family patterns. This study uses factor analysis to identify the dimensions of victimization. Regression tests the relationship between the contextual variables, the individual resource variables, the disaster characteristic variables, and victimization. The results of the analysis show that victimization is multidimensional with different types of variables being significant predictors for each dimension of victimization, one variable indicating the intensity of the disaster, the dollar value of damage victims experienced, is found to be a significant predictor of the psychological, physiological, and social disruption aspects of victimization. Variables measuring the family and unemployment patterns in the victims' census tract are significant predictors of the psychological and social disruption aspect of victimization. The findings provide general support for the proposed model of victimization. However, victimization is multidimensional with each dimension having a unique set of predictors. Based on the findings, this study suggests that future research focus on measurement and conceptualization of the characteristics of disasters and the victims' social environment.

Abstract:

Social foraging behaviour has an important influence on individuals’ survival and reproduction through its role in the acquisition of food resources. It also determines the amount of foraging time required in differing environments, and so the amount of time available for other activities, such as socialising and resting, which have been implicated in an individual’s fitness, as well as the stability of the wider social group. In this thesis I explore the links between these two processes by investigating the drivers of social foraging behaviour, and how the foraging time budgets that this behaviour produces vary between environments. I do this using data collected from a wild population of chacma baboons (Papio ursinus) in Namibia, under both natural and field-experimental conditions, and through the development of an individual-based model (IBM). I show that baboon foraging decisions are influenced by social and non-social factors, but that the relative influence of these factors is dependent on the characteristics of the forager and the habitat it is in. These differences in decision-making appear to allow all individuals in a group to experience similar foraging success under natural conditions, but this pattern breaks down in extreme conditions. Using these findings to build an IBM of social foraging, I show that the time individuals need to spend foraging can increase rapidly in a deteriorating environment to the point where they are no longer able to gather enough resources. Overall, the findings of this thesis contribute to the growing appreciation that social foragers can exhibit a high degree of behavioural flexibility. These findings also emphasise the long-standing recognition that individual-level behaviours have an important influence on higher-level ecological patterns and processes and that an appreciation of this is important, not only for our understanding of these patterns and processes, but also for informing conservation and management.

Abstract:

PONTIFÍCIA UNIVERSIDADE CATÓLICA DO RIO DE JANEIRO
A Umbanda, através de seus ritos e símbolos em reuniões coletivas, promove uma integração, no plano mítico, entre todas as categorias sociais. Ao forjar a identidade umbandista, como prática social e cultural, essa religião sincrética e moderna pode manter viva a esperança de grupos marginalizados em ocupar espaços de prestígio social e criar modelos de convívio que primam pelas sustentabilidades, através da transposição do significado da natureza, de acidente geográfico, como portadora de valores culturais para a criação de um possível espaço social mais solidário. A partir da compreensão de que a RMRJ expressa pluralidade de sentidos, interrelações entre as diversas dimensões das práticas espaciais e sua aproximação com as práticas culturais, demonstra-se como a Umbanda expressa potenciais mecanismos de interpretação das representações socioespaciais de segmentos incluídos precariamente, assim como na transformação das condições socioambientais vigentes que, por sua vez, pode deslanchar um novo paradigma de educação ambiental no âmbito da gestão do território. Trata-se, antes de tudo, de resgatar a solidariedade, o cuidado e a responsabilidade dos homens sobre as coisas da Natureza, que, por sua vez, são destinadas aos mesmos homens territorializados.
The Umbanda, through its rituals and symbols in gatherings, promotes the integration of all social categories in a mythical level. By creating its own identity as a social and cultural practice, this syncretic and modern religion can help to keep alive the hope of segregated groups to occupy spaces of social prestige. Besides, it can create models of coexistence which prioritize sustainability by transposing the meaning of nature from a geographical accident that holds cultural values to the creation of a more sympathetic social space. Based on the understanding that the RMRJ expresses the plurality of meanings, of interrelations among the many dimensions of the spacial practices and their approximation to the cultural practices, it is shown how the Umbanda expresses potent mechanisms of interpreting the socio-spacial representations of segments precariously included, as well as in the transformation of the existing socio-environmental conditions raising a new paradigm of environmental education in terms of territory management. Above all, it is about restoring mankind’s solidarity, care and responsibility for everything related to nature which is designated to these same territorialized human beings.

Abstract:

The article examines the influence of the social and cultural environment of the university on the social formation of future specialists. The essence of the concept of the social and cultural environment of the university is characterized. A general characteris-tic of the structural components of the social and cultural environment is given. The influence of the social and cultural environment on the social formation of future spe-cialists is substantiated, which proceeds in several directions and stages: the content of these directions and stages is characterized. A working definition of the socio-cultural environment of a university has been formed with which a university graduate interacts and which is a combination of objec-tive and subjective factors that contribute to their successful mastering of professional competencies, the formation of professional socialization and the social formation of students.
