ICHC Framework

The Goal in this paper is to propose a cultural heritage data model and evolve towards the creation of a framework based on MongoDB that will allow to manage a JSON model representing the cultural heritage of a city ICHC (Intelligent Cultural Heritage of a City). This manuscript per the authors noticed that during the census of cultural heritage, the presence of human resources linked to heritage is not something that is represented in a smart engine of a framework. Which is why the goal is to integrate the human resource and therefore add a relational aspect to the NoSql documents so that the resulting framework can have a smart engine to link data.This model is a set of ICHD (Intelligent Cultural Heritage Document) which are JSON documents that represent of the different types of cultural heritage entities. Those documents will be managed in a MongoDB repository architecture that will allow to them, so that the microservices-based ICHC framework can offer a big data context that can handle a huge variety, volume and velocity of data and be based on distributed operations.

Polskie liczebniki główne w świetle gramatyki kognitywnej

Artykuł analizuje semantykę polskich liczebników głównych z zakresu 5-10 i 100. Analiza wykorzystuje model gramatyki kognitywnej proponowany przez Ronalda Langackera. Główna teza artykułu głosi, że ewolucja tych liczebników polegała na przesunięciu aspektu relacyjnego (tj. przymiotnikowego) do profilu liczebnika, w wyniku czego liczebniki stopniowo traciły swój rzeczownikowy charakter. Proces ten nie zaszedł jednak w pełni, gdyż niektóre liczebniki zachowały pewne gramatyczne własności rzeczownika. Takie przesunięcie profilu rozpatrywać można z kategoriach metonimii pojęciowej, a było ono możliwe dzięki wysokiej żywotności relacyjnego aspektu znaczenia względem aspektu rzeczownikowego. Polish cardinal numbers in light of Cognitive Grammar Summary: The article discusses the semantics of Modern Polish adjectival numerals from the range 5-10 and 100. The theoretical background for the analysis is Ronald Langacker’s Cognitive Grammar. The main assumption in the article is that the evolution of numerals consisted in shifting the relational (adjectival) aspect to the profile of the numeral, which resulted in the numerals gradually losing their nominal character. The process, however, has not been completed, since the numerals under discussion retain some of their original nominal properties. This profile shift, best accounted for in terms of conceptual metonymy, was facilitated by the high vitality of the relational aspect of meaning in relation to the nominal aspect.

Marketing relacional, un estudio sobre customer engagement, customer experience y customer success

El marketing relacional o también llamado marketing de relaciones, juega un papel importante en la fidelización, el relacionamiento y la retención de los clientes con una marca. Los tres tipos o vertientes de esta rama de mercadotecnia analizadas, fueron el customer engagement o compromiso del consumidor, customer experience o experiencia del consumidor y el customer success o éxito del consumidor. El objetivo del estudio fue analizar las vertientes del marketing enfocados, principalmente, al tema relacional en donde a partir de sus características, dimensiones y, sobre todo, actividades se empató con el proceso de venta o comercial de las organizaciones y se planteó la Pirámide de las vertientes del marketing relacional como herramienta para la consecución de objetivos relacionales, teniendo como base el customer engagement y el customer experience. Este estudio respondió a una revisión bibliográfica exhaustiva – teórico descriptivo, en la que se analizaron publicaciones científicas de carácter empíricas, teóricas, analíticas y críticas, de aquellos autores que han estudiado sobre el tema. Se concluyó que el tipo de marketing relacional con mayor cantidad de actividades relacionadas con el proceso comercial es el customer experience, ya que su objetivo principal es brindar y mantener una experiencia positiva, de inicio a fin, durante todo el proceso de compra de un consumidor. La Pirámide de las vertientes del marketing relacional tomó una forma diferente teniendo como base el customer engagement y el customer success. Palabras clave: customer engagement, customer experience, customer success, fidelización, marketing relacional, proceso de venta. AbstractRelationship marketing also called relational marketing, plays an important role in customer loyalty, relationships, and retention with a brand. The three types or so-called aspects of this part of the marketing, which were analyzed in this study are: customer engagement or consumer commitment, customer experience or consumer experience and customer success or consumer success. The objective of this study was to analyze the types of marketing, based on the relational aspect, which includes characteristics, dimensions and especially activities. This analysis come together with the sales or the commercial process of organizations. For this, the Relationship Marketing Pyramid was proposed as a tool to achieve relational objectives using customer engagement and customer experience. This study was carried out under an exhaustive literature review scheme and a descriptive theory, in which empirical, theoretical, analytical, and critical scientific publications were analyzed. After the analysis, it was concluded that the type of relationship marketing with the greatest number of activities related to the commercial process is the customer experience, since its main objective is to provide and maintain a positive experience from the beginning to the end of the process of a consumer’s purchase. The Relationship Marketing Pyramid took a different form based on customer engagement and customer success.Keywords: customer engagement, customer experience, customer success, loyalty, relationship marketing, sales process

Studi Iberici. Dialoghi dall’Italia

Iberian Studies have developed in the last quarter of a century to the point of making one speak of a real Iberian Turn. Starting from the rejection of the classic scheme that places the two states (Portugal and Spain) as privileged agents of the representation of the Iberian space, the proposal of the Iberian Studies is to work on the system of historical exchanges and interferences that have shaped the cultural fabric of the peninsula, investigating both the points of connection as much as those of the fracture between its different realities (such as the Basque, Catalan and Galician ones, as well as the Castilian and Lusitanian ones). Accompanied by a “Reasoned Bibliography on Iberian Studies and Iberian Studies from Italy”, this volume examines the state of the art, with particular attention to the Italian context, in which these researches show a still unequal rooting and diffusion. A first section, dedicated to a general framework of the discipline and the exposition of theoretical issues and method problems, is followed by a second that presents critical contributions that address individual case studies. Born in part as a reaction to the so-called “crisis of Hispanism”, Iberian Studies offer themselves as an alternative to the traditional model of peninsular Hispanism, to its uninational and monolingual paradigm. They also place the emphasis on diversity and the relational aspect, looking with suspicion at every hegemonic design aimed at establishing a “centre” within a heterogeneous cultural landscape. Attentive to the phenomena of immigration and linguistic minorities, to the colonial past and relations with the Latin American world, but also to the themes of comparativism, translation, theory and the rethinking of criticism, Iberian Studies are a field in which not only debates about literature and the arts are included, but also about ideology.

Remembering Materiality: A Material–Relational Approach to Organizational Memory

In this paper, we develop a material–relational approach to understanding organizational memory. We focus on the inherent materiality of mnemonic devices—material artifacts that anchor shared memories of the past. Mnemonic devices work to constitute social groups of organizational stakeholders bound together by mutual affinities to these devices, known as mnemonic communities. While we know that the materiality of mnemonic devices represents information about the past that is interpreted by members of the mnemonic community as a narrative that is important in the present, our approach focuses on how engagement with the material aspects of mnemonic devices can create relationships of affinity among people remembering together. To develop our conceptualization, we first apply insights from the literature on materiality and its emphasis on how materiality is the basis for non-verbal and relational communication. From this, we theorize four material attributes that affect how mnemonic devices constitute relational connections that create embodied, cartographic, and temporal boundaries for organizational mnemonic communities. We then conceptualize how these distinct material attributes accumulate, intersect, and interact with each other and with the narrative representations of mnemonic devices and how in turn these interactions may bind stakeholders together. By emphasizing the material–relational aspect of mnemonic devices, our paper theorizes a broader and potentially more powerful set of affinities between stakeholders and organizations and, on this basis, enhances extant research by articulating different paths to the emergence of mnemonic communities.

Glasbeniki in blagostanje: pregled literature / Musicians and psychological well-being: Systematic review

The purpose of this article is to review the studies that are related to the research of well-being in professional musicians and students of music who are on their way to starting their professional careers in music. Currently, there aren‘t many such studies available, but their number is growing rapidly. Psychological well-being is a topic that has become popular with professional musicians in the last ten years, while interest in this field of research has been growing. Based on the analysed scientific and research sources, we can conclude that the latter sources are based on different theoretical assumptions about well-being, as a uniform and generally accepted definition of well-being hasn‘t been adopted yet. So far, all studies have focused on a wide range of participants with diverse characteristics, in which identifying factors have been found that have an influence on whether the levels of one‘s well-being are low or high, as well as provide a base for planning an introduction to applying appropriate forms of intervention to raise one‘s level of well-being. One of the key aspects of moderating well-being is the relational aspect. Studies performed so far have made it clear that, in the future, we may expect an increase in the development of interest, as well as conducted research, in the field of well-being in musicians; moreover, we may expect the development of more clearly defined forms of intervention that would lead to increased levels of well-being in musicians, starting at the level of musical education and moving forward.

The Maudsley Anorexia Nervosa Treatment for Adults (MANTRA): a feasibility case series of an integrated group based approach

Background Individuals with Anorexia Nervosa (AN) typically struggle in social and emotional contexts. An Integrated Group Based approach for the delivery of MANTRA - The Maudsley Anorexia Nervosa Treatment for Adults – extends current NICE recommended therapy by augmenting treatment with opportunities for experiential practice in a group context. A feasibility case series, delivered across three NHS community services is presented. Methods The design was a case series of four Integrated Group MANTRA treatments delivered across three NHS sites (N = 29). Feasibility data of: retention, acceptability and effectiveness; alongside the qualitative capture of participant experiences of treatment is presented. Results Primary outcomes suggest treatment acceptability. Participants committed to treatment with only 2 dropouts. There was significant change with medium effect sizes for eating disorder cognitions and symptoms (as measured by the global score on EDEQ) and BMI. Core themes emerging from qualitative analysis captured the value of the relational aspect of the treatment, the incorporation of experiential methods, and the opportunity to draw on the support of the group members to reduce shame and stigma. Conclusions An Integrated Group based MANTRA approach is a feasible and effective alternative intervention for community Eating Disorder services.

VERBAL CLITICS IN ROLE AND REFERENCE GRAMMAR

Purpose of the study: The present study analyses the interplay of semantics, syntax and pragmatics in Pashto clauses containing verbal clitics (VC) in the light of the Role and Reference framework. It particularly focuses on the relational aspect of the clause. The lexical representation of the predicating elements is presented. Methodology: The four projections of a Pashto clause i.e., constituent projection, operator projection, logical structure projection and focus structure projection are analyzed in the Role and Reference Grammar theoretical framework. Main Findings: The findings of the study show that VCs are different from both agreement markers and pronouns with some shared properties. A linking algorithm is proposed for Pashto from semantics to syntax and syntax-to-semantics based on the activation level of the referents. Applications of this study: The study analyses the discourse pragmatic conditions responsible for the occurrence of VCs in Pashto clause terms of role and reference grammar. The novelty of this study: The study has novelty in the sense that it describes the structure of the Pashto clause from a discourse pragmatic perspective which has never been investigated in previous studies. The study shows the movement is triggered by both actor (in present) and undergoer (in past) along with syntactic neutralization. The VCs are different from both agreement markers and pronouns with some shared properties identifying dative arguments like arguments and causing doubling like agreement markers and so, are linked to an ‘agreement index’ node.

The Maudsley Anorexia Nervosa Treatment for Adults (MANTRA): A Feasibility Case Series of an Integrated Group Based Approach.

BackgroundIndividuals with Anorexia Nervosa (AN) typically struggle to negotiate their social and emotional worlds. Yet, current NICE recommended psychological therapies do not provide sufficient opportunities for live, in situ, relational and emotional experiences that enable growth in these areas. An Integrated Group Based approach for the delivery of MANTRA - The Maudsley Anorexia Nervosa Treatment for Adults - could address this omission by augmenting the treatment with group processes and live experiential practice. A feasibility case series of the approach, delivered across three NHS community services is presented.MethodsA case series design, comprising four Integrated Group MANTRA treatments delivered across three NHS sites (N=29), was used. Preliminary feasibility data is reported regarding: retention, acceptability and effectiveness; alongside the use of qualitative methods to capture participant experiences of treatment.ResultsPrimary outcomes suggest that Integrated Group MANTRA treatment was acceptable. Participants remained committed to the treatment with only 2 dropouts. Quantitative outcomes suggested significant change with medium effect sizes for both eating disorder cognitions and symptoms (as measured by the global score on EDEQ) and BMI. Five core themes emerged from qualitative analysis of participant feedback, capturing the value of the relational aspect of the treatment, the incorporation of experiential methods, and of the opportunity to draw on the support of the group members to reduce shame and stigma.ConclusionsPreliminary indication is that an Integrated Group based MANTRA approach is a feasible and effective alternative intervention for community Eating Disorder services.

Relations and Panpsychism

Twentieth-century physics has revealed a pervasive relational aspect of the physical world. This fact is relevant in view of some of the motivations for panpsychism. In fact, it may be seen as a vindication of the panpsychist idea of a monist continuity where some aspects of consciousness's perspectivalism are universal. On the other hand, this same fact may undermine some of the motivations for more marked forms of panpsychism.
