Foucault is the original author of the book (Surveiller et punir: Naissance de la prison), and the original edition is written in French . And then the English translation of its title was changed to Discipline and Punish by translator Alan Sheridan %%%. At the suggestion of the original author Foucault, the title of the book uses “discipline” because Foucault was interested in the richness of the word to express both “standardized training” as a technique of social power and “discipline” when appropriate. The book’s heart discusses the operation mechanism of control in modern society with punishment and discipline. Based on the birth of the prison process, detailed and profoundly discusses the how as a form of punishment power to change. According to Foucault’s theory, the punishment ways have changed from direct destruction of the flesh to control the soul’s transition. At the same time, in Foucault’s view, modern society is essentially a disciplined society. It can make people obedient without actually punishing them. The philosophical wisdom in this also brings a lot of educational reflections.
福柯是这本书的原作者(《监视者与惩罚者:监狱的新生》),原版是用法语写的。然后,它的英文标题被翻译阿兰·谢里丹改为纪律和惩罚%%%。在原作者福柯的建议下,这本书的标题使用了“纪律”,因为福柯对这个词的丰富性很感兴趣,既可以表达作为社会权力技术的“标准化训练”,也可以在适当的时候表达“纪律”。本书的核心是用惩罚和纪律来探讨现代社会控制的运行机制。本文从监狱诞生的过程出发,详细而深刻地探讨了刑罚权力作为一种形式是如何变迁的。根据福柯的理论,惩罚方式已经从直接毁灭肉体转变为控制灵魂的过渡。同时,在福柯看来,现代社会本质上是一个有纪律的社会。它可以让人们听话,而不用惩罚他们。其中蕴含的哲学智慧也带来了许多教育反思。

In order to screen safe and efficient herbicide varieties and combinations suitable for oat field use, field plot experiment method was used to spray stems and leaves from 3 to 5 leaf stages of oat. The results showed that the control effects of single-dose treatment of 45.9% difluoro-dioctyl SC 450 mL/hm2 and 20% tribenuron-chlorofluoropyroxyacetic acid WP 900 g/hm2 on weeds in oat fields were all above 80%, herbicides 10% tribenuron-methyl WP 150 g/hm2, 42% 2-methyl·fluroxypyr EC 1125 mL/hm2, 48% bentazone AS 3000 mL/hm2 and 72% 2,4-D butylate EC 150 mL/hm2 mixed use, and 10% pyrazone WP 300 g/hm2 + 56% 2-methyl 4-sodium chloride WP 1200 g/hm2 + 50 g/L difluorsulphonamide SC 90 mL/hm2 mixed use of broad-leaved weeds in oat field control effect were more than 80%, significantly higher than the conventional herbicide used in production, 48% bentazone AS 3000 mL/hm2 + 72% 2,4-D butylate EC 150 mL/hm2 and 2-methyl·fluroxypyr EC 1125 mL/hm2 + 72%. The test results enriched the available herbicide varieties for chemical weeding in oat fields and could be applied in oat fields.

Perceived Readiness to Practice among BSC Honors in Nursing Graduates: Implications for Training 护理学学士学位毕业生的实践准备:对培训的启示
Pub Date : 2021-04-02 DOI: 10.4236/OALIB.1107138
C. Haruzivishe, Doreen Mukona Macherera
New nurses, at all levels of qualification, are generally perceived as not meeting expectations for safe nursing practice. Unfortunately, they are expected to be job ready, demonstrate competence in the provision of evidence-based care, practise independently, and assume accountability and responsibility for their own actions by hospital managers and nursing authorities. This was a cross-sectional analytic survey conducted online with a random sample of 118 BScN graduates from the University of Zimbabwe, Department of Nursing Science. Contact numbers, email addresses and social media platforms were used to contact the graduates. An adapted version of the Casey Fink Readiness for Practice Questionnaire (CFRPQ) questionnaire was used to collect data. It had 3 sections namely; Section A—Demographic data, Section B—Adapted Readiness to Practice Questionnaire and Section C—Needs to enhance readiness to practice questionnaire. The questionnaire was uploaded online with a link that was sent to participants who had given consent. They were filled in and returned to the researcher. Constant reminders in the form of emails, and text messages were sent out to enhance response. Approvals for the study were granted by the Joint Research and Ethics Committee and the Medical Research Council of Zimbabwe. The study was conducted according to the requirements of the Declaration of Helsinki. All participants gave informed consent. The researchers had sole access to fill in surveys which were kept in a password protected electronic folder. Data were collected over 6 weeks from the 28th of July to the 11th of September 2020. It was coded and analysed using STATA version 15. Descriptive statistics were used to analyse demographic data and readiness to practice scores. Qualitative data on needs to enhance readiness to practice were also coded and analysed thematically. Response rate was 53%. Majority of participants (at least 86.4%) expressed confidence caring for patients on medical surgical units. Many participants highlighted the need for more supervised clinical placements to enhance readiness to practice.
新护士,在所有级别的资格,通常被认为是不符合安全护理实践的期望。不幸的是,他们被期望为工作做好准备,在提供循证护理方面表现出能力,独立执业,并对医院管理人员和护理当局的自己的行为承担责任和责任。这是一项在线横断面分析调查,随机抽样了118名津巴布韦大学护理科学系的BScN毕业生。他们通过联系电话、电子邮件地址和社交媒体平台与毕业生取得联系。采用Casey Fink实践准备问卷(CFRPQ)进行数据收集。它有三个部分,分别是;a部分人口统计数据,b部分调整的实践准备问卷和c部分需要加强实践准备问卷。调查问卷上传到网上,并附有一个链接,发送给已表示同意的参与者。这些表格被填好并返回给研究人员。以电子邮件和短信的形式不断提醒,以加强回应。津巴布韦联合研究和伦理委员会和医学研究理事会批准了这项研究。这项研究是根据《赫尔辛基宣言》的要求进行的。所有参与者均给予知情同意。调查问卷保存在一个有密码保护的电子文件夹中,研究人员只有填写调查问卷的权限。数据收集于2020年7月28日至9月11日的6周内。使用STATA版本15对其进行编码和分析。描述性统计用于分析人口统计数据和准备练习分数。还对关于需要加强实践准备的定性数据进行了编码和专题分析。有效率为53%。大多数参与者(至少86.4%)表示有信心在内科外科单位照顾病人。许多参与者强调需要更多的监督临床实习,以提高实践准备。

Public-Private Partnerships Development Finance Model in Zimbabwe Infrastructure Projects 津巴布韦基础设施项目的公私合作发展融资模式
Pub Date : 2021-04-02 DOI: 10.4236/OALIB.1104211
Lifa Maposa, Yvonne Munanga
The economic meltdown and infrastructure decay in Zimbabwe over the past two decades has been strongly attributed to the absence of public-private sector partnerships amid political decay. The rapid intervention by government in the last two years to undertake PPPs has been more pronounced in road network re-construction although not so many projects have been done to date. The financing model of these PPPs has taken centre stage hence the main objective of this research is to evaluate the effectiveness of the PPP development finance model on infrastructure projects in Zimbabwe. PPPs are an alternative source of funding on infrastructure projects and have proved to ease pressure on governments as far as funds for capital intensive projects are concerned. The paper recommends the adoption of different PPP models for each sector given the differential requirements in each sector. It was found that a blanket model for all sectors does not work properly as different sectors have their unique characteristics. In addition, the paper recommends a speedy finalisation of the already initiated policy and institutional framework process to govern PPPs, which would also include putting measures in place centred on risk analysis and management during the process, issues on financing and issues on the mobilisation and incentivising of the private sector to participate in the process.
过去二十年来,津巴布韦的经济崩溃和基础设施衰退在很大程度上归因于在政治衰退中缺乏公私部门合作伙伴关系。过去两年,尽管迄今为止完成的项目并不多,但政府在进行公私合作方面的快速干预在道路网络重建方面更为明显。这些PPP的融资模式已经占据了中心舞台,因此本研究的主要目的是评估PPP发展融资模式在津巴布韦基础设施项目中的有效性。ppp是基础设施项目的另一种融资来源,事实证明,就资本密集型项目的资金而言,ppp可以缓解政府的压力。鉴于不同行业的不同需求,本文建议采用不同的PPP模式。由于不同的部门有其独特的特点,因此对所有部门采用一揽子模式是行不通的。此外,该文件建议迅速完成已经启动的管理公私伙伴关系的政策和体制框架进程,其中还包括制定以过程中的风险分析和管理为中心的措施、融资问题以及动员和激励私营部门参与该进程的问题。

In addition, the paper recommends a speedy finalisation of the already initiated policy and institutional framework process to govern PPPs, which would also include putting measures in place centred on risk analysis and management during the process, issues on financing and issues on the mobilisation and incentivising of the private sector to participate in the process.","PeriodicalId":19593,"journal":{"name":"Open Access Library Journal","volume":"72 1","pages":"1-24"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-04-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84356076","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Background and Aim: It has been ten months since the first case of COVID-19 was reported in Democratic Republic of Congo. Since then, the households have been on finding a cure for the disease. Largely neglected is the socioeconomic impact of the pandemic on the population in the country. The aim of the study is to measure the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the living conditions of households in Kinshasa. Methods: The design of this study is a cross-sectional study. A standard questionnaire was used to collect the data. The Revised Event Impact Scale (IES-R) was used to assess the socioeconomic impact of households. Factors with significant impact were sought by wald’s discriminant and logistic regression analysis. Results: About four in five respondents had a significantly psychological impact (ISE-R score > 1). Serious socio-economic impact was significantly associated with women, a liberal profession, a low level of education, and attending revival churches. On the other hand, the use of a mask, regular hand washing, knowledge of the consequences of containment and knowledge of the mode of transmission of COVID-19 reduced the risk of significant impact. Conclusion: Approximately 85% households surveyed had a significantly socioeconmic impact due to the pandemic which highlights the need for more longitudinal studies to be conducted on this age group. Urgent care and appropriate formulation of policies are needed to address the identified problems and to provide care to those in need.
背景和目的:自刚果民主共和国报告首例COVID-19病例以来,已经过去了十个月。从那时起,这些家庭一直在寻找治疗这种疾病的方法。这一大流行病对该国人口的社会经济影响在很大程度上被忽视。该研究的目的是衡量COVID-19大流行对金沙萨家庭生活条件的影响。方法:本研究设计为横断面研究。使用标准问卷来收集数据。采用修订事件影响量表(IES-R)评估家庭的社会经济影响。采用wald’s判别分析和logistic回归分析寻找有显著影响的因素。结果:大约五分之四的受访者有显著的心理影响(ISE-R得分> 1)。严重的社会经济影响与女性、自由职业、低教育水平和参加复兴教会显著相关。另一方面,使用口罩、定期洗手、了解遏制措施的后果以及了解COVID-19的传播方式,降低了产生重大影响的风险。结论:约85%的受访家庭因大流行而受到重大的社会经济影响,这突出表明需要对这一年龄组进行更多的纵向研究。需要紧急护理和适当制定政策,以解决已查明的问题,并向有需要的人提供护理。
