This study is an extension research of previous research finding conducted by researcher and team, which resulted in more than 50 names of mosques and musalas in Padang were considered error. These forms of error exist in terms of morphological, semantic, morphology and semantic contexts and imla’ rules. However, to explain these errors more compre­hensively, a sociopragmatic viewpoint is required. In this context, it can be assumed that in understanding a word or language, the socio­logical context of the speaker and its use in determining and choosing certain symbols in their language are necessary to be considered. The phe­nomenon of naming a house of worship such as a mosque and musala cannot be separated from social context of the owners of the place of worship. This frequently causes pragmalinguistic failure in under­standing the phenomenon of language which only relies on how to express language structurally, following the rules exclusively without giving attention to the social and cultural context of the speaker itself. This research is a field research which applies qualitative methods. The main data is obtained through interviews with mosques and musalas administrator and also the surrounding community to find out the historical and socio-cultural background of naming the mosques or musalas. The data of this study are all the names of mosques and musalas in Padang, especially those 50 names that are considered error from the perspective of Arabic grammar.Keywords: Sociopragmatics, mosque, musala, Padang Kajian ini adalah kelanjutan dari temuan peneliti dan tim yang dalam penelitian sebelumnya mendapatkan kesalahan pada lebih dari 50 nama masjid dan musala yang ada di kota Padang. Bentuk-bentuk kesalahan tersebut ada dalam konteks morfologis, semantic, morfologis dan semantic serta kaidah imlai’. Akan tetapi, untuk menjelaskan kesalahan tersebut secara lebih komprehensif diperlukan sudut pandang sosiopragmatik. Dalam konteks ini bisa dipahami bahwa pemahaman sebuah kata atau bahasa haruslah memperhatikan konteks sosiologis penutur dan pengguna­nya dalam menentukan dan memilih simbol tertentu dalam bahasa mereka. Tidak terkecuali tentunya penamaan sebuah rumah ibadah seperti masjid dan musala yang juga tidak bisa dilepaskan dari konteks sosial masyarakat yang menjadi pemilik rumah ibadah tersebut. Hal ini yang seringkali menjadi penyebab kegagalan pragmalinguistik dalam memahami feno­mena bahasa yang hanya bertumpu pada bagaimana mengungkapkan bahasa sesuai aturan tanpa memberikan perhatian kepada koteks sosial dan cultural penutur itu sendiri. Penelitian ini adalah penelitian lapangan (field research) dengan menggunakan metode kualitatif, di mana data utama diperoleh melalui wawancara dengan pengurus masjid dan musala dan juga masyarakat sekitar untuk mengetahui latar belakang historis dan sosio-budaya penamaan masjid atau musala mereka. Adapun data pene­litian ini adalah semua nama masjid dan musala yang ada di kota Padang, khususnya yang dianggap keliru dalam sudut pandang tata bahasa Arab yaitu kurang lebih 50 masjid dan musala.Kata Kunci: Sosiopragmatik, Masjid, Musala, Padang

This article proposes the customary use of qualitative methods as complementary research tools to enhance the evidence base in the craniofacial field. The recognition given to qualitative approaches in other healthcare areas and their value in enhancing understanding of lay and professional beliefs and behaviors is contrasted with the paucity of qualitative studies to date in the craniofacial field. Research tools from the qualitative repertoire are briefly introduced and their underpinning principles are explained. The contribution made to research with children and families in wider healthcare areas and in the craniofacial field to date is outlined. Future potential applications of these methods to craniofacial research are discussed. It is suggested that qualitative methods be integrated into craniofacial research as part of the standard toolbox of inquiry, and that interdisciplinary collaborations with colleagues from the social sciences appropriately skilled in the methods should be developed.

Psalm 137 has become notorious for the brutality and bloodthirstiness that characterise its last verses. In the face of many past criticisms which rejected the Old Testament as a book of violence, both Christians  and  Jews need to take texts such as Psalm 137 seriously and interpret them against the  social  and cultural customs of their time. Before Psalm 137 can be judged against the ethical norms of modern societies, the text must first be understood in its ancient context. The aim of this paper is to show that a better understanding of the socio-cultural background of the Psalm may enhance our understanding of vv. 7-9, as well as of the Psalm as a whole. The hypothesis is that the social values of honour and shame feature so prominently in the Psalm that they form a key to the interpretation of the poem.

Tebas District is part of the 3 T region which has the largest population in Sambas district. Most of the population in the Tebas sub-district are spread in 23 villages where transportation access is quite alarming. This reality is not balanced with the number of non PNS Islamic religious instructors appointed by the Ministry of Religion, which amounted to only three people in 2019. Despite having limited personnel, the propaganda carried out with religious guidance was able to touch all circles and entire Tebas sub-district. This study aims to analyze da'wah through religious guidance carried out by Islamic religious instructors in the Tebas sub-district which is in the interior (3 T). This study is a field research using qualitative methods. The results of the analysis of the research findings can be concluded that the religious guidance carried out by Islamic religious instructors in the Tebas sub-district of Sambas district still uses a conventional coaching approach that emphasizes the delivery of da'wah messages orally and directly. Nonetheless, non-PNS Islamic religious instructors in Tebas district, Sambas district, their guidance efforts were carried out with a "pick up ball" pattern and were systematically scheduled. The selection of the guidance approach is based on the social reality of the missionary objectives that are still lagging behind both in terms of technology, access to information and transportation, and limited personnel resources in conducting guidance.

AbstractThis paper contributes to the question to what extent the socio-cultural context is relevant for the appropriateness of emotions, while appropriateness of an emotion means that the emotion entails a correct, or adequate, evaluation of its object. In a first step, two adequacy conditions for theories of emotions are developed: the first condition ensures that the socio-cultural context is not neglected: theories must allow for the fact that appropriateness often depends on the social meaning of the emotion’s particular object. The second condition rules out implausible forms of cultural determinism. In a second step, an account that meets both conditions is presented: the Acceptance within Social Context account.

The marginal Old French translation in a codex kept on Mount Athos, Iviron ? 463, is a remarkably precise translation of the Greek main text, the abridged version of the romance- hagiography Barlaam and Josaphat. Now and then, however, minor spelling mistakes and mistranslations are part of the text, nevertheless, with more careful analysis, these do not appear to be mistakes at all. In this study, examples for such instances are discussed: the author of the paper lists transcriptions/readings which are different from the Greek original and seem to be mistakes at first glance, but the translator?s deliberate intent can be assumed in the mentioned cases, and therefore, they can provide valuable data about the social and cultural background of the unknown translator of the Iviron-manuscript and about the historical and social context of the translation.

Abstract This chapter explores the transnational aspects of identity and the long distance belonging of Latvian migrants in Great Britain. In particular, it focuses on the discourses and practices of long distance belonging to Latvia. The article is based on a comparative analysis of The Emigrant Communities of Latvia survey data as well as semi-structured interviews with Latvian migrants in Great Britain. The analytical sections are organised so as to discuss the three main analytical contexts of long distance belonging: ethno-cultural, political and social. In the ethno-cultural context, migrants who identify themselves as ethnic Latvians rediscover and strengthen their links to the Latvian cultural space, its traditions and its ways of collective self-understanding. Conversely, the absence of this cultural capital among Russian-speaking migrants from Latvia advances their faster assimilation into British society. The political context of long distance belonging reveals high levels of distrust of the Latvian government and the migrants’ overall disappointment with Latvia’s political elite, as well as political apathy. Nevertheless, Latvian migrants in the United Kingdom are discovering new motivation and fresh opportunities to influence the political reality in Latvia and that has increased participation in Latvian national elections. The social context of long distance belonging, in turn, enables new forms of allegiance towards Latvia. These are manifested in philanthropic initiatives, in participation in various interest groups and in regular interest in what is happening in Latvia. The social context does not put the migrants’ activities into ethno-cultural or political frameworks, but encourages moral responsibility towards the people of Latvia.

This article describes the conceptual foundation of a Master's programme in qualitative methods aimed at training professional qualitative researchers in the field of social and marketing psychology. Two principles underpin the Master's project: anchorage to research questions generated by the real social context as the driver of the entire development of the research project (i.e., ‘issue-based research’); and the adoption of what is called ‘process methodology’ as the methodological interconnection between the features of the social field (i.e., the context of the research) and of the research field (i.e., the study's scope). In practice, process methodology requires the learning of three sets of competences (content, contextual and flow) related to qualitative research. Those competences are devoted to the implementation and management of applied qualitative research able to produce situated knowledge and to enhance the transferability and usability of that knowledge. The article gives details of both the didactic structure of the programme as well as the teaching devices adopted.

AbstractThe study of trash, although long in the forefront of actual archaeological research, has seldom been conducted in such a way as to emphasize the social and cultural context of the rules governing trash disposal. Evidence from the Early Dynastic town site of Hierakonpolis in Upper Egypt is used to support the contention that a knowledge of human patterns of trash disposal can be a valuable tool in the study of the composition and functioning of "urban" centers, as well as of general use in interpreting archaeological remains.
