This study investigates how the development of artificial intelligence (AI) is perceived by the students enrolled in technical and humanistic specializations at two universities in Timisoara. It has an emphasis on identifying their attitudes towards the phenomenon, on the connotations associated with it, and on the possible impact of artificial intelligence on certain areas of the social life. Moreover, the present study reveals the students’ perceptions on the sustainability of these changes and developments, and therefore aims to reduce the possible negative impact on consumers, and at anticipate the changes that AI will produce in the future. In order to collect the data, the authors have used a quantitative research method. A questionnaire-based sociological survey was completed by 928 students, with a representation error of only ±3%. The analysis has shown that a great number of respondents have a positive attitude towards the emergence of AI, who believe it will influence society for the better. The results have also underscored underlying differences based on the respondents’ type of specialization (humanistic or technical), and their gender.

A Actividade Física Adaptada à Pessoa com Deficiência (PcD) é reconhecida como um óptimo meio para a inclusão social desse grupo. No entanto, o grau de inclusão da PcD dependerá em grande parte das atitudes manifestadas pelos diferentes grupos populacionais, assumindo que uma atitude positiva influencia o comportamento da pessoa em relação a um grupo social específico. Em Moçambique, espera-se que técnicos desportivos capacitados em modalidades adaptadas à PcD, além de técnicos, sejam agentes que promovam a inclusão social. OBJECTIVO: o objectivo do presente estudo foi validar uma proposta metodológica que gere atitudes positivas em relação à deficiência, melhorando assim o perfil dos formados em cursos de agentes desportivos. MÉTODO: a proposta foi submetida a um processo de validação por especialistas, composto por um painel de 21 especialistas de quatro países (Espanha, Portugal, Brasil e Moçambique), seleccionados por meio de um questionário para determinação do coeficiente de competência. Para a análise dos resultados, foi utilizada a estatística inferencial (medidas de tendência central e dispersão) e o coeficiente de concordância "W de Kendall". RESULTADO: os especialistas avaliaram satisfatoriamente oito descritores, dentre eles, o contexto da proposta e sua aplicabilidade; o desenho, objectivos e estratégias da metodologia; os critérios de sucesso, o tempo estimado para sua implementação e os resultados esperados. CONCLUSÃO: foi validada por especialistas uma proposta metodológica com o objectivo de melhorar a atitude do formando em relação à deficiência. The Physical Activity Adapted to the Person with Disabilities (PwD) is recognized as an optimal path for the social inclusion of this group. However, the degree of inclusion of PwD will largely depend on the attitudes manifested by the different population groups, assuming that a positive attitude influences the behavior of the person towards a specific social group. In Mozambique, it is expected that the sports technicians trained in modalities adapted to the PwD, in addition to being technicians, will be agents that stimulate social inclusion. OBJECTIVE: the objective of the present study was to validate a methodological proposal that generates positive attitudes towards disability, thus improving the profile of the trainees leaving in courses for sports technicians. METHOD: the proposal was submitted to a validation process by experts, made up of a panel of 21 specialists from four countries (Spain, Portugal, Brazil and Mozambique), selected through a questionnaire to determine the coefficient of competence. For the analysis of the results, inferential statistics (measures of central tendency and dispersion) and the coefficient of agreement "Kendall's W" were used. RESULT: the experts satisfactorily evaluated eight descriptors, among them, the context of the proposal and its applicability; the design, objectives and strategies of the methodology; the success criteria, the estimated time for its implementation and the expected results. CONCLUSION: a methodological proposal with the aim of improving the attitude of the person being trained towards disability was validated by specialists.

The positive attitude was associated with interrelated factors including their experiencewith people living with HIV /A IDS (PLW HA ); knowledge of HIV /AIDS; job satisfaction; and a belief in a duty to treatall. A  few physiotherapists had a negative attitude which was related to being judgmental and to a fear of acquiring HIVthrough occupational infection.

ABSTRACT Objective: to analyze the female transsexual identity and the emergence of transfeminism through the context of vulnerability to HIV / AIDS in light of the Queer Theory. Method: a qualitative, descriptive, exploratory study based on the Queer Theory, carried out in a reference hospital for HIV/AIDS in the State of Pernambuco (Brazil), developed with six young transsexual women. The interviews were analyzed in the IRaMuTeQ software via the similarity analysis method. Results: the relation of male domination through the subordination of the transsexual woman, which originates in the binary, sexist and male chauvinistic heteronormative model, is emphasized. The context of vulnerability to HIV / AIDS is evidenced as a naturalized phenomenon of violence to the young "queer" woman, especially with precarious living conditions, history of family rejection, sexual violence and informal prostitution work. Lack of support from the social network and the imminent risk of transphobic violence result in damage to their physical and mental integrity. The following categories were observed: Emergence of transfeminism through symbolic violence and female transsexual identity and the context of vulnerability. Conclusion: the social impacts of the minimal state policy, social class cohesion (binarism, sexism, racism and male chauvinism), unequal social capital and culture of abjection of transsexual women reflect the context of the HIV / AIDS epidemic and inequalities that result in individual, contextual and programmatic vulnerability and in factors which limit the attainment of a healthy life.

Hiv Aids

HIV / AIDS has become a phenomenon in the social environment of society for the last few years. Fear of stigma and discrimination from local people makes PLWHAs reluctant to reveal themselves. People with HIV who have revealed themselves must face the risk of discrimination and stigma that must be experienced in everyday life. This study aims to explain interpersonal communication among PLWHA who have done self-disclosure. The method that’s being used is a qualitative approach with case study method. The case study was conducted at ODHA Berhak Sehat Community. The data collection is done by conducting in-depth interviews with informants. Subjects in this study were people living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA) who had opened their status for some time. In addition interviews were also conducted with specialists in sexually transmitted diseases as a research triangulator. It was found that PLWHA who have revealed status with the closest people cause a sense of trust. PLWHA do not receive discrimination, but rather supportiveness. And, an open - minded attitude from the closest person. Furthermore, the results of the study are discussed in this article. HIV/AIDS telah menjadi fenomena di lingkungan sosial masyarakat selama beberapa tahun terakhir. Orang dengan HIV/AIDS (ODHA) cenderung mendapat stigma dan diskriminasi dari masyarakat setempat. Hal ini membuat ODHA enggan mengungkapkan diri. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui bagaimana komunikasi antarpribadi ODHA yang sudah melakukan pengungkapan diri (self-disclosure). Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif, dengan metode studi kasus. Studi kasus dilakukan pada Komunitas ODHA Berhak Sehat. Pengumpulan data dilakukan menggunakan wawancara mendalam dengan tiga ODHA yang sudah mengungkapkan status kesehatannya. Selain itu wawancara juga dilakukan kepada dokter spesialis penyakit menular seksual sebagai triangulator penelitian. Penelitian ini menemukan bahwa komunikasi antarpribadi ODHA yang sudah mengungkapkan status dengan orang terdekat menimbulkan rasa kepercayaan. ODHA tidak mendapat diskriminasi, melainkan sikap suportif. ODHA juga mendapati sikap terbuka dari orang terdekat.

Studies on the social management of HIV and AIDS have focused on how awareness about HIV and AIDS has been created through organised and interpersonal communication. These studies have not investigated context-constrained language use in the advertisements on the disease despite the wide coverage and potential effectiveness of the public sensitisation about HIV and AIDS. This study, therefore, investigated the pragmatic features of language in selected HIV and AIDS management advertisements with a view to identifying the pragmatic acts of the language. Aspects of pragmatic act theory, noted for negotiability of meaning context based interactional situations was adopted for the research. All the 25 advertisements broadcast between December 2006 and June 2009, to all African countries on both private and government-owned television stations in Nigeria by an International non-governmental agency known as 'it begins with you' (YOU) constituted the data. Fifty–four utterances were generated from the adverts and were subjected to qualitative analysis and reported in simple percentages. Six pragmatic functions manifested in the advertisements: Co-opting and Projecting were realised through inference (INF), shared situational knowledge (SSK) and relevance (REL) to bring the audience into the war against HIV/AIDS. Encouraging and Emboldening were projected through SSK and INF to motivate the audience to go for HIV test and speak openly about the virus. Instigating was done using indirect speech act to empower the female against discrimination and stigmatisation. Advising was achieved through SSK and INF to promote fidelity and safe sexual behaviour. The analysis of YOU advertisements through pragmatic act theory presupposes that pragmatic functions were exploited by the advertisers to sensitise the audience, promote social ties and project into an HIV free generation.

This article compares the anonymous ‘capable woman’ of Proverbs 31 with Mibtahiah of Elephantine. Both women are presented as wealthy occupiers of estates with economic success and influence in society. Both literary portraits unfold positive attitudes towards female characters, but present two divergent gender conceptions. The construction of Proverbs 31 depicts the ‘capable woman’ as an ideal character who amalgamates various social female roles and benefits from acting according to the wisdom teachings. The ‘capable woman’ provides a literary model of identification and imitation with an offer to share one’s identity with her. The Elephantine papyri reveal a divergent conception of another wealthy woman with influence insociety. Mibtahiah inherits an estate and enlarges her domain through additional economical purchase. She also takes a leading role in her family. The social role of Mibtahiah seems to be comparatively progressive, since the documents clearly indicate a juridical equalisation of men and women. The two conceptions of influential female characters present wealthy woman with potential in society. Thus, the positive attitude towards the two women is based on their wealth. ‘Welvarende vroue’ in antieke tye: Die ‘knap vrou’ van Spreuke 31:10−31 en Mibtahiahvan Elephantine. Hierdie artikel vergelyk die anonieme ‘knap vrou’ van Spreuke 31 met Mibtahiah van Elephantine. Albei vroue word voorgehou as die welvarende, invloedryke en ekonomies suksesvolle eienaars van landgoedere. Albei letterkundige weergawes openbaar ’n positiewe ingesteldheid teenoor vroulike karakters, maar verteenwoordig twee uiteenlopende geslagskonsepte. Spreuke 31 beeld die ‘knap vrou’ uit as die ideale karakter wat die verskeie rolle van die vrou met gemak hanteer en voordeel uit wysheidsonderrig trek. Die ‘knap vrou’ is ’n navolgenswaardige model met wie iemand sou wou identifiseer. Die Elephantine papyri openbaar ’n verskillende perspektief op ’n ander welgestelde en invloedryke vrou, Mibtahiah, wat ’n landgoed erf en deur verdere aankope. Sy speel ook ’n leidende rol in haar familie. Dit blyk asof die sosiale rol wat Mibtahiah gespeel het betreklik progressief was omdat die geskrifte ’n duidelike juridiese gelykmaking van mans en vroue aandui. Hierdie twee konsepte van invloedryke vroulike karakters stel die vermoënde vrou met potensiaal in die samelewing voor. Dus is die positiewe houding teenoor die twee vroue op hulle welvarendheid gebaseer.

Abstract. Background: Suicide can have a lasting impact on the social life as well as the physical and mental health of the bereaved. Targeted research is needed to better understand the nature of suicide bereavement and the effectiveness of support. Aims: To take stock of ongoing studies, and to inquire about future research priorities regarding suicide bereavement and postvention. Method: In March 2015, an online survey was widely disseminated in the suicidology community. Results: The questionnaire was accessed 77 times, and 22 records were included in the analysis. The respondents provided valuable information regarding current research projects and recommendations for the future. Limitations: Bearing in mind the modest number of replies, all from respondents in Westernized countries, it is not known how representative the findings are. Conclusion: The survey generated three strategies for future postvention research: increase intercultural collaboration, increase theory-driven research, and build bonds between research and practice. Future surveys should include experiences with obtaining research grants and ethical approval for postvention studies.
