Studi Etnografi Tentang Bakat Di Kalangan Remaja Di Era Digital

This article focuses on understanding talent and action in an effort to develop talent among teenagers in the digital era, which is important as now we are in digitalization era. This article is based on data collected through the application of observational techniques and in-depth interview techniques, both of which are typical in the application of ethnographic research methods, with the object of study 20 teenagers who live in Makassar City who were selected randomly. Applying the perspective of cognitive anthropology, the results of this study show; teenagers' understanding of talent as an important thing to be developed, especially in the fields of art, technology, and skills, which is carried out through self-taught learning by relying on information, both in the form of knowledge (including experience) and news, which is available on the internet and through various media applications. social. Talent is then understood as something that is formed and/or shaped through a learning process, and not as something that is given or has been present since birth, which if developed intensively can provide benefits for the owner, or has commercial value, because talent shows are part of what is supported in the community of digital era. Artikel ini berfokus pada pemahaman tentang bakat dan tindakan untuk upaya menumbuhkembangkan bakat di kalangan remaja di era digital, yang mana hal tersebut menjadi penting sebab kini kita berada di era digitalisasi. Artikel ini berdasarkan data yang dikumpulkan melalui penerapan teknik pengamatan dan teknik wawancara mendalam, yang mana kedua teknik tersebut merupakan khas dalam penerapan metode penelitian etnografi, dengan obyek studi 20 remaja yang berdomisili di Kota Makassar yang dipilih secara acak. Menerapkan perspektif antropologi kognitif, hasil studi ini menunjukkan; pemahaman remaja tentang bakat sebagai suatu hal yang penting untuk ditumbuhkembangkan khususnya terkait bidang kesenian, teknologi, dan keterampilan, yang dilakukan melalui pembelajaran autodidak dengan mengandalkan informasi, baik berupa pengetahuan (termasuk pengalaman) maupun pemberitaan, yang tersedia di internet dan melalui ragam aplikasi media sosial. Bakat kemudian dipahami sebagai hal yang terbentuk dan/atau dibentuk melalui proses pembelajaran, dan bukan sebagai hal yang terberi atau telah terdapat sejak lahir, yang jika ditumbuhkembangkan secara intensif dapat memberikan keuntungan bagi pemiliknya, atau memiliki nilai komersial, sebab pertunjukan bakat menjadi bagian dari hal yang didukung di era digital.

Violence as a main symptom of schizophrenia and expressed emotion in relatives of users from Instituto Jalisciense de Salud Mental

Introduction. Schizophrenia is a mental disorder that affects 21 million people worldwide, and it brings about environments with high Expressed Emotion (EE) in the families of these individuals. High EE is characterized by negative evaluations, criticism, and overinvolvement of family members towards the person with schizophrenia. Objective. Recognize the relationship between the cultural agreement about the symptoms of schizophrenia and EE. Method. The study had a mixed design, with a cognitive anthropology method. The sample had a probabilistic estimate based on Weller and Romney proposal, with a competence higher than 50%, a confidence level of 95%, and 5% of type I error. The 40 participants were selected with a simple randomized probability sampling, conformed by relatives of patients from the Instituto Jalisciense de Salud Mental (SALME). Results. The 45% of the sample showed a high EE according to the Questionnaire for Measuring the Level of Expressed Emotion (CEEE). A single valid cultural model with statistical significance was found, in which violence was identified as the main symptom of schizophrenia. The best-informed relatives showed a lower EE (Mann-Whitney U = 1,000, p #abr# .001). Discussion and conclusion. Schizophrenia disorder has been associated with stigmas that generate rejection and fear. A total of 40% of the world’s population believe people with schizophrenia are dangerous and violent. It must be considered opportune to reconsider the use of the term “schizophrenia”, which is etymologically imprecise and supports stigmas that have excluded and defamed people with schizophrenia for more than a century.

Artistic and cultural aspects of signs and symbols in creative art

The purpose of the article is to introduce into art historical and cultural discourse of theoretically processed, generalized, analyzed information regarding the understanding of the meaning of symbols and signs in cultural studies and art historian scientists; Clarification of the root causes of the occurrence of basic concepts in cognitive anthropology. The methodology is based on the method of critical analysis of cultural, art historical, and literary sources; semiotic method; induction and deduction methods; historical, logical, and method of interdisciplinary synthesis. Scientific Novelty. Intrutded to the past experience of scientists, philosophers, art historians, culturalologists bring the need to pay attention to the meaning of symbols and signs in art history and cultural studies. The origins of the origin of the basic concepts of cognitive anthropology are found out. The author's vision of the badge and symbolism of the non-verbal language is set out, which is assimilated through the mastery of the national culture and requires intellectual efforts, corresponds to the N. Chomsky hypothesis, according to which the nature of knowledge, its use, material or physical mechanisms, the formation of the knowledge base and its application are associated with cognitive ability man in general. A modern approach to discuss issues on perceptual, security-indexed, subject-functional and other codes in the perception of reality are considered. The newest achievements of foreign and domestic researchers in the definitions of semiotic terminology, logical justifications of symbols and signs in cultural studies, and art historian examination were studied and analyzed. Conclusions. The results of the study of literary sources on this topic provided the opportunity to draw conclusions that in the analyzed editions of many authors was given insufficient attention to the origin of the terms of cognitive anthropology in the presentation of scientific material.

Structured methods of data production and their visualization using GIS: semantic domains in ethnographic research of landscapes

In this article, we present how, using the example of research studies connected with the perception of a landscape, some structured methods of data production used primarily in cognitive anthropology can be applied along with the possibilities of data analysis visualization using geographic information systems. We show the process of working with data gained by qualitative techniques and transferred, using semantic domain analysis, to the GIS interface, and outline the room for interpretation opened up by such a multilevel approach using various tools. Although we subjected the described procedures to pilot verification in our own research, the connection of the presented methodological approaches is still open to scientific discussion and, above all, to further experimentation.

“It's Rougher on Me Than It Is on Him”: Family Caregiver–Generated and Prioritized Illness Concerns While Patients Undergo Cancer Treatments

PURPOSE: Research eliciting patients' illness concerns has typically focused later in the cancer continuum, rather than during cancer treatments. Family caregiver concerns are overlooked during this time. Less is known about how patients and caregivers prioritize concerns during cancer treatments, which holds potential for improving supportive oncology care (ie, primary palliative care). The purpose of this study was to elicit and compare which domains of supportive oncology are of highest importance to patients and caregivers during cancer treatments. METHODS: Freelisting, a cognitive anthropology method, was used to elicit concerns in order of importance. Freelist data were analyzed using Smith's salience index. Qualitative interviews were conducted with a caregiver subsample to add explanatory insights. RESULTS: In descending order, pain, death, fear, family, and awful were salient Freelist items for patients (n = 65), whereas sadness, time-consuming, support, anger, tired, death, and frustration were salient for caregivers (n = 24). When integrated with supportive oncology domains, patients' concerns reflected a prioritization of the physical (pain) and emotional (death, fear, and awful) domains, with less emphasis on social (family) aspects. Caregivers' prioritized the emotional (sadness, anger, death, and frustration) and social (time-consuming and support) domains, with less emphasis on the physical (tired) aspects. CONCLUSION: Our findings suggest that enhancing primary palliative care delivery by oncology teams requires systems thinking to support both the patient and caregiver as the primary unit of care. Primary palliative care may be improved by prioritizing interventions that address physical concerns among patients as well as key social concerns among caregivers to support the complex caregiving role while patients undergo cancer treatments.

Analysis of Confucius’s Humanistic Education Theory Centered on the Analects of Confucius Based on Cognitive Anthropology

Objectives: Confucius’s humanistic education theory centered on the Analects of Confucius based on cognitive anthropology was analyzed in this paper, and the computer technology was used to extract the imagery and thought of the ancient Chinese prose. Methods: First of all, the definition and classification of cognitive anthropology and ancient Chinese prose imagery were described in detail; then based on the Confucius culture centered on the Analects of Confucius, the computer representation model and the classification algorithm of ancient Chinese prose were constructed; Results: in addition, the experiment was carried out to verify the model and algorithm, and the threshold analysis was carried out on the basis of the comparison of tagged word and characteristic words; Conclusion: finally, the optimum range was obtained for each parameter.

Rethinking Culture and Cognition

Paul DiMaggio's (1997) Annual Review of Sociology article urged integration of the cognitive and the cultural, triggering a cognitive turn in cultural sociology. Since then, a burgeoning literature in cultural sociology has incorporated ideas from the cognitive sciences—cognitive anthropology, cognitive psychology, linguistics, neuroscience and philosophy—significantly reshaping sociologists’ approach to culture, both theoretically and methodologically. This article reviews work published since DiMaggio's agenda-setting piece—research that builds on cross-disciplinary links between cultural sociology and the cognitive sciences. These works present new ideas on the acquisition, storage, and retrieval of culture, on how forms of personal culture interact, on how culture becomes shared, and on how social interaction and cultural environments inform cognitive processes. Within our discussion, we point to research questions that remain unsettled. We then conclude with issues for future research in culture and cognition that can enrich sociological analysis about action more generally.

Cognitive Anthropology, Roy Wallis and Cyber Believers: The Application of the Taxonomy Concept to Three Orthodox Websites

When the internet appeared, both scientists and non-scientists discussed whether it was liberating the media and whether it was going to be transformed into a safe zone for the expression of free opinion. The answer to this question might be found within the cognitive anthropology concept of taxonomies. The etic taxonomy classification of religions (both in the online and/or offline worlds) has existed for a very long time. Still, the question of emic taxonomy remains. In other words, do cyber believers themselves perceive the internet as a place where they can express religious ideas that they could not do in their offline religious communities and connect with people who share the same/similar worldview? The goal of this paper is to answer the question of whether the scientific taxonomy and folk taxonomy (one of the religious cyber influencers chosen as a sample) converge or whether they differ and, in case they differ, whether the internet gives them the opportunity for free expression and making communities. Roy Wallis has been chosen as an example of scientific taxonomy, since his main criterion for classification is precisely the relationship of religious groups towards society (in this case, the mainstream discourse of both Serbian society and the Serbian Orthodox Church).

To the Question of the Three System Theory: Culture and Psychology. American Anthropology Experience As Applied to Orthodox Culturology

The article raises the question of the relation between culture and psychology that used to be one of the key issues in American cultural anthropology. The tendency to view an individual as culture projection that was typical for the anthropology in the first half of the 20th century, did not find empirical confirmation. In the following years there appeared the “two system” theory within the framework of which the psychological and cultural phenomena exist as two independent sets. In the end of the 20th century there emerged again the tendency to overcome the barrier between culture and psychology. In the article the author analyzes the new attempts to establish the connection between the cultural and psychological issues in their interaction within the framework of the allied subjects, – psychological anthropology, cognitive anthropology and cultural psychology. The author suggests her own approach to the problem of culture and psychology based on the Orthodox doctrine of the composition of man.
