This paper investigates the choices of second person terms of address in the Malay culture. It examines the different patterns of address terms used in a range of communicative situations by interlocutors coming from diverse social backgrounds. The data for this study was obtained from two Malay dramas Ijab & Qabul (The solemnization of marriage) and Tiga Hari Menanti Mati (Three Days Until Death). These dramas were selected because they reflect in the usage of terms of address in an authentic social context of the Malay culture and represent various interpersonal relationships in a range of situations. This is a descriptive study with a qualitative approach. Forty-eight different second person terms of address were recorded and analysed in specific contexts based on the framework for classifying address terms established by Kroger, Wood and Kim (1984). The findings suggest that sociolinguistic elements such as interlocutors, contexts, determinants of interpersonal relationship, and intentions were determining factors influencing the choice of second person terms of address in the Malay culture. These findings have implications on the understanding of current trends in choosing the terms of address among Malay speakers.

This is a descriptive study based on a questionnaire and conducted over a period of 2 months, subjects with a sample size of 180 respondents are randomly recruited on social networks. The results show that consumers are now interested in where they buy food, the quality of the products and the cost/quality ratio in these places. This study also states that despite the importance of product price to the consumer, quality is the factor most sought after by the consumer. This leads to an obligation on the part of consumers to industrialists to integrate food products with high nutritional values and to use ingredients that do not cause a danger to human health.

ABSTRACT Objective: to analyze the perceptions of professors and students on academic tutoring. Method: descriptive study with a qualitative approach, carried out at the Magalhães Barata School of Nursing, State University of Pará, Brazil. Twenty-seven professors and 32 students participated in the study. Data were collected through semi-structured and individual interviews, using different scripts for professors and students. For analysis, the technique of content analysis was used. Results: we defined three thematic categories: academic tutoring as a tool for strengthening teaching-learning; academic tutoring as a possibility of intellectual and social transformation; and reflections of academic tutoring in nurses’ training. Final considerations: the teaching-learning process is referred to as a process in which there must be dialogue, and in which professors, students, and tutors learn with each other, breaking the traditional paradigms of unilateral and vertical transfer of content. Academic tutoring stands out as promoter and strengthener of this process.

This study investigated the association between the quality of life (QOL) and type 1 diabetes mellitus (DM), a lifelong disease that requires constant management. A complex set of factors influence the QOL of people with type 1 DM, and understanding these factors requires further research. This research is a cross-sectional descriptive study. A survey on related variables such as acceptance of disease and efficacy for self-management of diabetes, was conducted among 111 participants with type 1 DM. The collected data were analyzed using PASW Statistics program, and factors influencing participants’ QOL were identified through hierarchical multiple regression. The study followed the Guidelines of Systematic Reporting of Examination in the STROBE checklist. The results showed that four variables exerted a significant effect on QOL (blood glucose level at hypoglycemia and complications in Model 1; efficacy for self-management of diabetes and acceptance and action in Model 2), and all the variables explained a majority of the variance in QOL. The results indicate that management of severe hypoglycemia and prevention of complications is crucial. Interventions should be developed to enhance coping abilities to improve efficacy for self-management for those with diabetes and promote their acceptance of the disease.
