Comparison of measured Clark`s angels in determined ways
Namen raziskave je bil ugotavljanje povezanosti med tremi načini merjenja Clarkovih kotov odtisov stopal in ugotavljanje njihove uporabnosti.
V raziskavo je bilo vključenih 186 učencev od prvega do devetega razreda osnovne šole Pirniče. Za vse smo pred začetkom raziskave pridobili soglasje staršev.
Merjenje je potekalo v mesecu juniju 2010.
Clarkov kot desnega in levega stopala smo pridobili na tri različne načine:
• ročna izmera s kotomerom,
• s pomočjo računalniških programov Cabri 2 plus in
• Foot Study.
Za merjenje Clarkovih kotov s pomočjo obeh računalniških programov smo morali dobljene odtise stopal skenirati s skenerjem, da smo lahko slike odtisov stopal vnesli v računalniški program.
Dobljene podatke smo vnesli v program Excel in jih obdelali s pomočjo statističnega programa SPSS. Izračunali smo deskriptivno statistiko in povezanost med vsemi tremi metodami s Pearsonovim korelacijskim koeficientom.
Ugotovili smo:
• da med vsemi tremi izbranimi metodami merjenja Clarkovega kota prihaja do razlik,
• vse izbrane metode nam niso omogočile obdelavo vseh odtisov stopal,
• med različnimi načini meritve Clarkovih kotov je prišlo do občutnejših razlik v porabljenem času za obdelavo podatkov.
Ugotovili smo, da je za prvi triadi osnovne šole ročni način izmere Clarkovega kota s kotomerom še vedno najbolj uporaben in najhitrejši način merjenja, ki ima najvišjo povezanost z ostalima računalniškima načinoma merjenja.The intention of this research was to find the connections between three ways of measuring Clark\u27s angles of footprints and finding its usability.
186 students from the first to the ninth grade of primary school Pirniče were involved in this research and before we began we got their parents consent.
The measurement took place in June 2010.
We used three different ways to get Clark\u27s angle of the right and left foot:
• Manual measurement with astrolabe,
• With the help of computer programs Cabri 2 plus and
• Foot Study.
For the measurement of Clark\u27s angles with both computer programs, we had to scan all the footprints with a scanner, so we could insert the photos into the program.
The obtained data were inserted into the Excel and processed with the statistic program SPSS. We calculated the descriptive statistics and the connection between all of three methods with Pearson\u27s correlation coefficient.
We found out that:
• there are differences between these three methods of measurement of Clark\u27s angles,
• not all of these methods enabled us to process all the footprints,
• there are considerable differences in time spent to process data with each way of measurement.
We also found out that in the first triad od primary school the fastest and the most usable way is the manual measurement with astrolabe and it also has the highest connection with the other two computer measurements

Knowledge and attitudes of midwifery students towards homosexuals
Uvod: Vedno več je istospolno usmerjenih parov, ki se odločijo za starševstvo. Posledično se pri svojem delu z njimi srečujejo tudi zdravstveni delavci, kot so medicinske sestre in babice. Znanje slednjih o istospolno usmerjenih in njihovih potrebah v zdravstveni obravnavi je pogosto pomanjkljivo. Prav tako ima veliko zdravstvenih delavcev do istospolno usmerjenih negativna stališča in predsodke, kar se odraža v manjši uporabi zdravstvenih storitev ter slabših zdravstvenih izidih pri slednjih. To problematiko povzroča tudi odsotnost vsebin o istospolno usmerjenih v študijskih programih zdravstvenih ved. Namen: Namen diplomskega dela je raziskati znanje in stališča študentov babištva na Zdravstveni fakulteti v Ljubljani do istospolno usmerjenih. Naš cilj je ugotoviti, ali je treba v študijski program babištvo vključiti več vsebin o istospolno usmerjenih. Metode dela: V prvem delu diplomskega dela je bila uporabljena deskriptivna metoda empiričnega raziskovanja, v kateri smo pregledali obstoječo literaturo. V drugem delu pa smo uporabili kavzalno neeksperimentalno metodo empiričnega raziskovanja, pri kateri smo izvedli spletno anketo med študenti babištva na Zdravstveni fakulteti v Ljubljani. Rezultati: Znanje študentov babištva o istospolno usmerjenih je zadovoljivo, vseeno pa jim primanjkuje znanja o pravicah istospolno usmerjenih do starševstva in njihovih potrebah v babiški obravnavi. Povprečna ocena lestvice stališč do istospolno usmerjenih, ki smo jo oblikovali sami, je 4,2. To pomeni, da je v povprečju stališče študentov do istospolno usmerjenih pozitivno. Največji vpliv na stališča študentov o istospolno usmerjenih imajo mediji (75 %), medtem ko je vpliv fakultete (14 %) zanemarljiv. Kar 81 % študentov je bilo mnenja, da v času študija niso prejeli dovolj informacij o obravnavi istospolno usmerjenih. Samo 53 % študentov se je počutilo dovolj kompetentnih za obravnavo istospolno usmerjenih pacientov. Kar 78 % študentov pa si je želelo, da bi na fakulteti o istospolno usmerjenih prejeli več vsebin. Razprava in zaključek: Študentje babištva potrebujejo več znanja s področja zakonodaje in pravic istospolno usmerjenih do starševstva ter njihovih potreb v babiški obravnavi. Fakultete bi z različnimi metodami lahko zagotovile boljše znanje študentov in jim pomagale, da le-ti ozavestijo svoja stališča do istospolno usmerjenih. Posledično bi to pripomoglo k zagotavljanju bolj enakovredne, empatične in profesionalne babiške obravnave istospolno usmerjenim pacientkam.Introduction: More and more same-sex couples decide to become parents. As a result, health professionals such as nurses and midwives also meet such couples in their work. Their knowledge about homosexuals and their needs in health care is often lacking. Also, many healthcare workers have negative attitudes and prejudices towards homosexuals. Consequently homosexuals use less of health services and therefore have poorer health outcomes. This problem is also caused by the absence of lessons about homosexuals in nursing and midwifery study programs. Purpose: The purpose of the diploma thesis is to investigate the knowledge and attitudes of midwifery students at the Faculty of Health in Ljubljana towards homosexuals. Our goal is to determine whether it is necessary to include more content about homosexuals in the midwifery study program. Methods: In the first part of the diploma thesis, a descriptive method of empirical research was used, where we reviewed the existing literature. In the second part, we used a causal non-experimental method of empirical research, where we created an online survey among midwifery students from the Faculty of Health in Ljubljana. Results: The knowledge of midwifery students about homosexuals is satisfactory, however, they lack knowledge about the rights of homosexuals to parenthood and their needs in midwifery care. Scale of attitudes towards homosexuals, which we created ourselves, has 4,2 average score. Which means that, on average, students\u27 attitudes towards homosexuals are positive. The media has the greatest influence on students\u27 attitudes about homosexuals (75 %), while the influence of faculty (14 %) is negligible. As many as 81 % of students thought that they did not receive enough information about homosexuals care, during their study. Only 53 % of students felt competent enough to take care of homosexual patients. As many as 78 % of students wished that they would receive more content from the faculty about the homosexuals. Discussion and conclusion: Midwifery students need more knowledge about same-sex parenting laws and rights, as well as their needs in midwifery care. Faculties could use various methods to provide better knowledge to students and help them to become aware of their attitudes towards homosexuals. Consequently, this would help ensure more equal, empathetic and professional midwifery care for homosexual patients

Eva Urban. 'Lessing’s Nathan the Wise: from the Enlightenment to the Berliner Ensemble.'
Lessing's Nathan the Wise (1779), exemplary for its enlightenment and humanist ideals, assembles Jews, Christians, and Muslims in dialogue during the medieval crusades in Jerusalem. Their encounters allow them to transcend conflict, to recognize their common humanity, and to resolve their differences through dialectical discourse and group arguments. In this article Eva Urban looks closely at the representation of enlightenment in this play and examines the potential role of plays and theatre practice in developing autonomous citizenship and intercultural understanding. Particular reference is made to the 2013 Berliner Ensemble production of Nathan the Wise in relation to aesthetic debates about modern political drama. Eva Urban is a British Academy Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the Faculty of English, University of Cambridge, and an Associate of Clare Hall, Cambridge. She is the author of Community Politics and the Peace Process in Contemporary Northern Irish Drama (Peter Lang, 2010) and has published a number of articles on political drama and Irish studies
