Natalia LL - artystka neoawangardowa
The paper shows Natalia Lach-Lachowicz (Natalia LL) as a neo avant-garde artist whose works in a specific maximalistic way are very close to the main currents of avant-garde trends: new mediality (photography), minimalism, conceptualism, performance, bodyart, pop-art, and feminist art. The author of the article concentrates mainly on the mutual influences of conceptualism, consumptionism, and feminism in Natalia LL’s works and pays attention to the emancipatory potential of her works of the seventies and the eighties

Energy flux in isotropic turbulence under large variations of external forcing
We investigate the response of energy flux in isotropic turbulence to step-function like perturbation in external forcing at large length scales. From both physical experiments and direct numerical simulations, we measured the evolution of the Eulerian velocity structure functions, such as , , before and after the perturbation in forcing. In both cases, we observed the cascade of the energy excess at large scales cascade through scales to the dissipative range, which can be used to study the dynamics of the cascade, and in particular, to estimate the relevant time scales

Sociocultural and familial factors associated with symptom experience at midlife among women in Nagaland, India
This cross-sectional study examines the sociocultural and familial factors that are associated with symptom experience at midlife among women in Nagaland. More specifically, the study examines the factors associated with symptoms at midlife, the relationship between symptoms at midlife, household stressors, ethnopolitical problems, and various measures of stress, and the buffering effects of social support against the negative effects of stress on symptoms at midlife. Data from 151 women aged 40-55 were collected from 4 regions in Nagaland, India. The most common symptoms reported during the past two weeks were headaches (72%), tiredness or lack of energy (67.5%), and hot flashes (58.3%). The study revealed a significant positive correlation between a composite measure of emotional instability (β=0.46, pAnthropologyDoctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.

A CROSS-CULTURAL COMPARISON OF ALZHEIMER’S DISEASE SYMPTOMS AND CAREGIVING IN THE UNITED STATES AND MEXICO
This project draws on interviews conducted in Puebla, Mexico and Springfield, Massachusetts to identify cross-cultural differences in Alzheimer's disease (AD) caregiving practices and how symptoms are recognized and interpreted. Sixty-two people living with AD and their caregivers were interviewed across the two field sites. Interviews with the caregivers were open-ended and semi-structured, lasting 2-4 hours. Follow-up interviews used neuropsychology questionnaires (e.g., Neuropsychiatric Inventory) to document the severity of cognitive changes being experienced by the person living with AD. Analysis of the interviews revealed that Mexican caregivers sought diagnosis at a later stage of AD and for different reasons than caregivers in the United States. Those differences can be traced to divergent definitions of normal/abnormal aging and may call into question whether or not an “early” diagnosis is always the most desirable. Similarly, caregivers in Mexico were more troubled by behavioral disturbances that their United States counterparts, possibly explained by cultural differences in coping strategies for age-related cognitive decline. The impact of an AD diagnosis varies between the United States and Mexico, suggesting that education initiatives and post-diagnosis counseling/advising ought to reflect local realities.AnthropologyDoctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.
