Vandalismo à propriedade pública: expressões motivacionais e abordagens preventivas para cidade do Kilamba

Este artigo tem como objetivo analisar as expressões motivacionais do vandalismo dirigido à propriedade pública. O texto enquadra diferentes teorias criminológicas na explicação e prevenção do fenómeno. A classificação dos subtipos de vandalismo estabelecida por Cohen (1984) e as abordagens sociais propostas por Barker e Bridgeman (1994), Goldstein (1996), Levy-Leboyer (1984), Ross (1984) e Merrills (2009) orientaram o estudo do ponto de vista da literatura. Metodologicamente trata-se de um estudo descritivo com abordagem quantitativa. Para a coleta dos dados foi aplicado um inquérito, construído com perguntas fechadas adaptado com base na escala nominal de Likert. Foram inquiridos 310 cidadãos residentes, e não só, que transitam diariamente na Cidade do Kilamba. Os resultados indicam a existência de uma forte tendência ao vandalismo aquisitivo, expresso pela remoção de equipamentos, motivado pela busca de ganho material privado. Além de ações oportunistas são evidentes incivilidades e falta de consciência no uso de espaços e estruturas de utilidade pública. O estudo identificou pela perceção dos cidadãos inquiridos que o mobiliário urbano e os espaços verdes apresentam caraterísticas de abandono, falta de estrutura de proteção e manutenção, sendo alvos preferenciais de vândalos. A pesquisa concluiu que há uma série de condições sociais e físicas como design, arquitetura e decadência das malhas urbanas capazes de produzir atos de vandalismo. O fenómeno tem afetado a ordem pública, o funcionamento e a acessibilidade dos serviços públicos como distribuição de água e eletricidade. As estratégias de prevenção passam por medidas dissuasivas, manutenção e conceção de estruturas protetivas de instalações públicas na cidade

AVAILABILITY AND UTILIZATION OF REFERENCE SOURCES IN ACADEMIC LIBRARIES

The study investigates availability and utilization of reference sources in academic libraries in Nigeria. It is undertaken as a descriptive survey research design. The population of the study is post graduate students in University of Port Harcourt, totalling 1,264. The simple random sampling technique was used to select the sample. The sample size is (118) post graduate students. Validation of the instrument was done by experts in guidance and counselling department. The reliability was done using cronbach alpha with reliability coefficient of 0.80. The researcher and two trained research assistants distributed the instruments. Mean (x) and standard deviation was used to answer the research questions while the z test was used to answer the hypothesis at 0.05 level of significance. The findings revealed that there is a significant difference between availability and utilization of reference sources in academic libraries. In conclusion all reference sources are available but not up to date and underutilized. The reference librarians need to create awareness of availability of reference sources and guide students for maximum utilization. It was recommended among others that librarians regularly update reference sources in order to make them relevant at all times

Cerita tentang COVID-19: Efek format pesan pada prasangka terhadap tenaga kesehatan dengan mediasi persepsi ancaman

During the COVID-19 pandemic, there are many cases of prejudice and discrimination against health workers, even though they are the spearhead of the pandemic response. Therefore, this study was conducted to examine the effect of different message types on the prejudice against health workers through the mediating effect of realistic and symbolic threat perceptions of the COVID-19. The message type was manipulated in the aspect of the message format (narrative, statistical) and the depiction of disease threat impact (realistic, symbolic). This research was conducted using a between-subject online experimental survey. The participants were 550 residents of Jakarta, Bogor, Depok, Tangerang and Bekasi (Jabodetabek) areas. Participants were randomly assigned to one of the conditions, namely statistical message type group, realistic threat narrative, symbolic threat narrative, and control group. After reading the text stimulus, measurements were made on the perception of realistic and symbolic COVID-19 threats, as well as prejudice against health workers. The results showed that the symbolic threat narrative group had lower prejudice compared to other groups (β = -0.226; t(536) = -2.052; p < 0.05). There was no effect of different message formats in the formation of prejudice against health workers. The mediating role of perceived threats on the relationship between message format and prejudice against health workers did not show as well. These results indicated that messages about disease do not always activate the behavioral immune system (BIS) mechanism, but also have the potential to deactivate the BIS mechanism, depending on the disease impact depicted on the message
