Self-esteem, fear of intimacy and unrestricted sociosexual behaviour
No full textMagistrsko delo Samospoštovanje, strah pred intimo in neomejenost socioseksualnega vedenja skuša skozi teoretični in empirični povezati tri pomembne konstrukte, in sicer samospoštovanje, strah pred intimo in (ne)omejenost socioseksualnega vedenja. V teoretičnem delu se avtorica najprej dotakne tematike samospoštovanja, nato intimnosti in socioseksualne orientacije. Vsako poglavje najprej pojasnjuje pomen teh konstruktov, pojasni razlike med spoloma, nato pa poveže teme med seboj. Temu sledi empirični del, kjer so predstavljene ugotovitve raziskave, v kateri je sodelovalo 204 udeležencev, od tega 34 moških in 170 žensk. Rezultati so delno potrdili hipotezo, da ostajajo statistično pomembne razlike med moškimi in ženskami v samospoštovanju, strahu pred intimo in omejenosti socioseksualnega vedenja. Avtorica je ugotovila, da moški v povprečju doživljajo višji strah pred intimo kot ženske. Pri stopnji samospoštovanja povprečne vrednosti kažejo, da moški in ženske približno enako vrednotijo svojo lastno vrednost. V (ne)omejenosti socioseksualne orientacije pa so moški bolj permisivno orientirani, medtem ko ženske kažejo bolj restriktivno orientacijo. Zatem je avtorica preverila tudi različne povezave med temi tremi spremenljivkami. Rezultati so pokazali, da med stopnjo samospoštovanja in socioseksualno orientiranostjo ni statistično pomembne povezanosti. Nadalje so rezultati pokazali majhno korelacijo med spremenljivkama socioseksualne orientacije in strahom pred intimo. Osebe z višjim strahom pred intimo izražajo višjo stopnjo neomejenosti v socioseksualnem vedenju. Prav tako sta povezani spremenljivki samospoštovanje in strah pred intimo. Rezultati kažejo, da posamezniki z višjo stopnjo samospoštovanja doživljajo manj strahu pred intimo kot posamezniki z nižjo stopnjo samospoštovanja.This Master\u27s thesis attempts to link three important constructs: self-esteem, fear of intimacy and (un)limited sociosexual behaviour. In the theoretical part, the author touches upon the topics of self-esteem, intimacy and finally sociosexual orientation. Each chapter starts with an explanation of the meaning of each previously mentioned construct, continues to explain the differences between the sexes and lastly links together all three topics. The theoretical part is then followed by an empirical part, which included 204 participants, 34 of which were male and 170 female, and presents the findings of this research. The results have partially confirmed the hypothesis, which states that there are statistically significant differences between men and women regarding self-esteem, fear of intimacy and limitation of sociosexual behaviour. The author found that on average, men experience a higher level of fear of intimacy than women do. In relation to the degree of self-esteem, average values show that both sexes value their own worth approximately equally, whereas in (un)limited sociosexual orientation, men have proven to be more permissive while women appear to be more restrictive. Afterwards, the author also examined various connections among the three variables. The results have shown no statistically significant connection between the levels of self-esteem and sociosexual orientation. Furthermore, a small correlation between the variables of sociosexual orientation and fear of intimacy has been discovered. Persons, who fear intimacy more, express a higher degree of limitlessness in sociosexual behaviour. Self-esteem and fear of intimacy are similarly connected. It has also been gathered from the results that individuals with higher levels of self-esteem experience less fear of intimacy than those with lower levels
Discussing and recreating selected folk songs from Štrekelj's collection Slovenian folk songs in the third grade
No full textThe knowledge of the folk songs is very important to all humans, because that way we can discover and better understand the life from the past. Folk songs have been created througout the whole history. The most important feature about them is singing, but in order to keep them for the new generations, it is also impotrant to write them down. Folk songs bring people together, and that we can seen at different occations in life – the songa live in the human comunity. There are a lot of collections with folk songs, but a very important expert on that area is Karel Štrekelj, because he gathered together a lot of slovenian folk songs with the help of other collectors. The characteristic of his collection Slovenske narodne pesmi (1895–1911) is the authenicity of the songs, since he kept them in the original form, as they were sung, recitated. That was the reason why I wanted to know, if the Karel Štrekelj is mentioned in the slovenian class in primary school, how do the pupils accept the songs from his collection, and how we can see their creativity in preformative activity after the interpretation of those songs.
The creativity enables kids to have a different picture of the world around them, because they are more free and open minded. They also develop cognitive abilities durring the creative process. The teachers also have a very important role in the development of creativity. In the theoretical part of the masters thetis I have defined folk and author songs and their characteristics, presented a few definitioins of the youth literature and the types of slovenian youth poetry. I analyzed Karel Štrekelj and the section from his collection and then compared it to another collection of folk songs Enci benci na kamenci (1–4) (1990–2018), from the author Roman Gašperin. I presented the cerative and preformative acivitzy and the role of the teacher in the developmement of the pupils creativity. I choose third grade class for my research, because the pupils from this class have already learned about the folk songs and were introduced with the terms, connected to them. In the 2,5 zears in school they also already had to show some creativity, that they could use in the preformative activity. I made a survey, for the needs of the action research, first at the beggining of the research, and also at the end, so see the results of the months of work. I discovered that it is very important to plan ahead, and to set certain goals, that we want to reach. Big emphasis is also on repeating, and that helps pupils to learn and memorise more of the learning material. I can confirm, that in order to have a better team work, it is very important, what kind of atmosphere we have in the class, and also how we form the groups. The groups had to be heterogeneous, because I found out that the kids like to help eachother and to express opinions. It is also very important, that the teacher chooses the right tasks for the final effect. The tasks have to be motivating, interesting, creative and a little demanding too, they have to encourage thinking, because it alows the pupils to develop their congintive abilitys
The Dichotomy of Female Characters in Le livre de Monelle by Marcel Schwob
No full textPričujoča naloga Dihotomija ženskega lika v Le livre de Monelle Marcela Schwoba obravnava Le livre de Monelle, zbirko pravljic francoskega simbolističnega pisatelja Marcela Schwoba, ki je živel med leti 1867 in 1905. Schwob, sicer uspešen avtor za časa svojega življenja, danes velja za nekoliko pozabljenega avtorja – v slovenskem kontekstu je popolnoma nepoznan. Širši cilj naloge je predstaviti pisatelja in njegov opus slovenskemu občinstvu, glavno prizadevanje pa je prepoznati dihotomijo ženske figure, ki se v omenjenem delu kaže kot dinamika med devico in prostitutko, splošno polarizacijo ženskega lika v zahodni literaturi. V Le livre de Monelle, Monellini knjigi, se oba pola sintetizirata v liku male prostitutke, osrednjega arhetipa, okoli katerega se tvorijo vse protagonistke obravnavanega dela. Naloga analizira aspekte omenjene dihotomije in jih skuša povezati s kontekstom avtorjevega časa in življenja, nadaljnje pa analizirati pomen male prostitutke v specifičnemu biografskem kontekstu – Schwob je delo namreč zasnoval po smrti svoje velike ljubezni. Tako naloga posredno raziskuje tudi avtorjev odnos do minljivosti, bolečine in prebolevanja. Rezultat naše analize dela so prevedeni odlomki Monelline knjige in kratka slogovna analiza jezika, ki nam pomaga pri razumevanju vloge lika male prostitutke.The following thesis The Dichotomy of Female Characters in Le livre de Monelle by Marcel Schwob is an analysis of Le livre de Monelle, a collection of fairy tales by the symbolist writer Marcel Schwob, who lived between 1867 and 1905. Schwob, who was a prolific writer in his own time, remains a somewhat forgotten figure. He is completely unknown to the Slovenian reader, which is why one of the objectives of this thesis is to present the author and his work to the Slovenian audience. However, the main goal of this paper is to dissect the dichotomy of the female figure in the work, the dichotomy being that of the virgin and the prostitute, a widespread dynamic in the context of Western literature. Le livre de Monelle, or The Book of Monelle as translated to English by Kit Schluter, joins the seemingly opposite poles in the little prostitute, the key archetype that connects all the protagonists. The thesis delves into the particularities of said dichotomy and aims to connect them to the context of the time in which the author created the work, as well as to the context of his own life – furthermore, it is crucial to analyse the little prostitute in a specific biographical context as Schwob created the work after the death of his lover. Thus, the thesis also indirectly researches the author’s relationship with mortality, grief, and recovery. The result of such an analysis are passages translated to Slovene and a brief study of the language used in the work, which contributes to the understanding of the little prostitute
Radiologic technologists and empathy - literature review
No full textUvod: Empatija je kompleksen, dinamičen in večplasten pojem. Je sposobnost razumevanja izkušnje druge osebe. Gre za pomembno komunikacijsko veščino, ki jo opisujemo v treh razsežnostih: čustvena, kognitivna ter vedenjska empatija. Empatija je ključna za uspešne socialne interakcije, kajti omogoča medsebojno razumevanje, učenje iz dejanj drugih ter na koncu nudenje pomoči sočloveku. Namen: Namen diplomskega dela je bil predstavitev pojma empatije v poklicu radiološkega inženirja. Raziskovali smo, zakaj je empatija pomembna komponenta radiološkega inženirja, kakšen je pozitiven vpliv empatije na paciente in radiološke inženirje, kakšen je negativen vpliv empatije na inženirje radiološke tehnologije, kako empatijo vpeljati v delo ter kaj vpliva na izražanje oz. ne izražanje empatije v radiološkem poklicu. Metode dela: Uporabili smo sistematičen pregled literature, kjer smo poiskali domačo in tujo literaturo po podatkovnih bazah: Mendeley, ScienceDirect, RUL, PubMed in ResearchGate. Iskali smo po ključnih besedah: empatija, emocionalno delo, radiološki inženir, empathy, radiographer, radiologic technologist, burnout in radiography. Vključili smo članke, izdane od leta 1991 naprej. Za vključitvene kriterije smo izbrali članke v slovenskem in angleškem jeziku, katerih besedilo je dostopno v celoti. Rezultati: V analizo smo vključili 13 člankov, razvrščenih v tabelo. Razvrstili smo jih glede na naslov članka, avtorja, letnico izdaje, ključne besede, namen raziskovanja ter njihove rezultate. Empatija predstavlja temeljno orodje za oblikovanje terapevtskega odnosa med radiološkimi inženirji in pacienti ter pripomore k boljši diagnostično kakovostni preiskavi. Različne raziskave so pokazale, da empatija pozitivno vpliva na terapevtske rezultate. Pozitivno vpliva tudi na radiološke inženirje, saj odnos, ki temelji na empatiji, lahko pripomore k zmanjševanju stresa in izgorelosti na delovnem mestu ter prispeva k boljši kakovosti življenja radioloških inženirjev. Po drugi strani pa lahko nenehna izpostavljenost stresnim in čustveno težkim situacijam vodi v različne čustvene in motivacijske posledice, kot sta empatična zaskrbljenost in osebna stiska. Za radiološke inženirje je pomembno, da razumejo čustva, mnenja in izkušnje pacientov, saj na podlagi tega lažje ocenijo njihove resnične potrebe, ukrepajo v skladu z njimi. Zaključek: Empatija ima pomembno vlogo pri delu radioloških inženirjev, saj doprinese k boljšemu odnosu s pacientom ter pripomore k izboljšanju diagnostične in terapevtske kakovosti preiskave.Introduction: Empathy is a complex, dynamic, and multifaceted concept. It is the ability to understand another person\u27s experience. It is an important communication skill described in three dimensions: emotional, cognitive, and behavioral empathy. Empathy is key to successful social interactions because it enables mutual understanding, learning from the actions of others, and ultimately offering help to a fellow human being. Purpose: The purpose was to present the concept of empathy in the profession of a radiographer. We researched why empathy is an important component of a radiologic technologist, the positive adn negative impact empathy has on patients and radiologic technologists, how to incorporate empathy into the work, and what affects the expression or non-expression of empathy in the radiology profession. Methods: We conducted a systematic literature search, searching domestic and foreign literature in the following databases: Mendeley, ScienceDirect, RUL, PubMed, and ResearchGate. We searched for the keywords: empatija, emocionalno delo, radiološki inženir, empathy, radiographer, radiologic technologist, burnout in radiography. We included articles published from 1991 onward. For the inclusion criteria, we selected articles in Slovenian and English with full text accessibility. Results: We included 13 articles classified in the table in the analysis. We classified them by article title, author, year of publication, keywords, research purpose, and results. Empathy is a fundamental tool for establishing a therapeutic relationship between radiographers and patients and contributes to better diagnostic quality of the examination. Several studies have shown that empathy has a positive impact on therapeutic outcomes. It also has a positive impact on radiographers, as an empathy-based attitude can help reduce stress and burnout in the workplace and improve the quality of life of radiographers. On the other hand, the constant exposure to stressful and emotionally difficult situations can lead to various emotional and motivational consequences, such as empathic concern and personal distress. It is important for radiographers to understand patients\u27 emotions, opinions, and experiences, because on this basis they can better assess their real needs and act accordingly. Conclusion: Empathy plays an important role in the work of radiographers, contributing to a better relationship with the patient and helping to improve the diagnostic and therapeutic quality of the examination
De Bonova metodologija »šest klobukov razmišljanja« in Mulejeva metodologija ustvarjalnega sodelovanja »USOMID« v novi kombinaciji1
No full textIn his search for ways to support the real transition and thus to realize the institutional one, the first author came across the methodology called »Six thinking hats«. This contribution briefs how coauthors have linked it with the first author's own methodology that is called USOMID, which is at least equally old, and supports creative thinking, too. Synergy of both methodologies is feasible. The first trials demonstrated that it can be very useful. USOMID supports well the blue and white heads, first of all, while receiving support from the red, black, green, and yellow hats in the phases of creative work and preparation of decisions; in the phase of implementing them USOMID seems to complete up the t6 thinking hats methodPrvi avtor je pri iskanju, kako podpreti stvarno tranzicijo, s katero bi se institucionalna zmogla uresničiti, naletel na metodologijo z imenom »6 klobukov razmišljanja«. Prispevek kaže, kako sta jo soavtorja povezala z vsaj enako staro lastno metodologijo USOMID, ki tudi služi za podpiranje ustvarjalnega razmišljanja. Možna je njuna sinergija. Prvi preizkusi zamisli so pokazali, da je lahko zelo koristna. USOMID dobro podpre zlasti modri in beli klobuk, obenem pa dobi podporo od rdečega, črnega, zelenega in rumenega klobuka v fazah ustvarjanja idej in priprave odločitev; v fazi njihovega uresničevanja pa je USOMID videti zopet dobro dopolnilo za metodo 6 klobukov
A new design of multi‐mesh survey gillnets to sample fish community in the Adriatic Sea
No full textNo abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author. Three types of multi‐mesh benthic survey gillnets were tested for their performance in the uniform muddy bottom habitat of the Bay of Piran. We describe the compared methods, present their positive and negative aspects and suggest a sampling design that could be used with different research goals. The research sampling was performed in winter in the years from 2010 to 2012. The sampling site is situated close to a sea bass rearing fish farm in the Northern Adriatic Sea. With the Nordic 1.5 type nets 5 species were detected compared to the 23 and 20 species detected with the Adriatic 2.5 and 5.0 nets. In the Nordic 1.5 type nets only demersal species were caught and even for those a much greater sampling effort would be required to reach a representative sample. On the other hand, both the Adriatic type nets also caught benthopelagic and pelagic species, and a correlation between net height and size of fish in these two nets was detected. While both the Adriatic type nets proved successful in achieving a representative sample of fish assemblage, the Adriatic 2.5 nets performed better in terms of CPUE and as such also reached a better cost‐benefit ratio
Uvodnik [v angleščini]
No full textThe winter issue of Volume 11 presents a selection of seven different research articles on Japanese, Tetun Dili, Sylheti Bangla, Pahari, and Saraiki language. The rise of the Covid-19 pandemic, of which continuation unfortunately still allows many to collect data for research, has prompted us to publish several other interesting studies. This compilation brings to the readers the following topics.
This issue opens with Saki AMANO’s paper “Polysemy of ‘Common Language’ and the Modern Japanese Nation: The Universalization of a ‘Standard Language’ to correct ‘Dialects’?”. The author examines the term futsūgo (common language) over two periods and explains the shift from the populace’s everyday commonplace language to a unified national language.
In the next paper “From Native-speaker Likeness to Self-representation in Language: Views from the Acquisition of Japanese Transitive and Intransitive Verbs”, ITO Hideaki considers the degree to which a language user’s own will is recognized in language education. The author demonstrates that the usage-centric acquisition process can create opportunities for language users to make expressive choices focused on what they wish to say.
The third article is Nastja PAHOR’s paper “Corpus analysis of the collocations of the transitive verbs owaru and oeru”, in which the author approaches the transitivity of Japanese verbs from the corpus perspective. Semantical analysis of collocations in combination with the morphological analysis of co-occurring verbs reveals some interesting findings.
After the first three papers that focus on Japanese, the fourth one brings some new insights into Tetun Dili. Andrei A. AVRAM in his paper “Contact-induced variation in Tetun Dili phonology” analyzes Portuguese influence on Tetun Dili phonology, and demonstrates that the intricacies of inter-speaker variation cannot be merely reduced to variation between more Portuguese-like phonology and a more Tetun-Dili-like one.
Arpita GOSWAMI’s paper “Marked Geminates as Evidence of Sonorants in Sylheti Bangla: An Optimality Account” analyzes the universal concept that sonorants are marked geminates in the gemination process of Sylheti Bangla, and proposes a hierarchy of the constraints for analyzing the gemination processes in SHB. Besides, the author illustrates some additional constraints found to be necessary.
The following article “Stop Voicing and F0 Perturbation in Pahari” presents the findings of Nazia RASHID, Abdul Qadir KHAN, Ayesha SOHAIL, and Bilal Ahmed ABBASI. The authors investigate the perturbation effect of the voicing of initial stops on the fundamental frequency of the following vowels in Pahari.
Last but not least, “Word Stress system of the Saraiki language” is an article by Firdos ATTA, who presents an Optimality-Theoretic analysis of Saraiki word stress. The author concludes that Saraiki has a trochaic stress system and falls in the category of quantity-sensitive languages. This paper also indicates further research work on word stress at the sentence level.
Editors and Editorial board wish the regular and new readers of the ALA journal a pleasant read full of inspiration, and a rise of new research ideas inspired by these papers
