Jenny M. Wilkinson,Heather M.A. Cavanagh,Michael Hipwell 한국식품영양과학회 2003 Journal of medicinal food Vol.6 No.1

Increasing interest in the health benefits of various culinary berries has led to investigationof their antibacterial activity. Commercial raspberry, blackcurrant, cranberry, and blackberrycordials (10% fruit) as well as fresh berries were assessed for their ability to inhibit thegrowth of various bacteria and the yeast Candida albicans . Thre of the six raspberry cordialsand the blackcurrant cordial inhibited all 12 bacteria and C. albicans at dilutions of 1:5. Bac-teria showed varying susceptibilities to the remaining cordials. All cordials inhibited thegrowth of Mycobacterium phlei . Of the fresh berries, mulberries and boysenberries did notinhibit any bacteria, and the remaing berries inhibited the growth of varying numbers ofbacteria. There was no correlation betwen gram-positive or gram-negative bacterial statusand susceptibility to the berries. It is suggested that the antibacterial activity of these berriesmay be of benefit as a means of water purification for suspect water suplies or to enhanceshelf life when incorporated into food products.57

Gender Profile. Gaps in Antioquia. Gender Statistics for Relevant Public Policies. A Good Practice Review

( Jenny S. Chica-esparza ) 한국정책학회 2022 한국정책학회 학술대회 Vol.2022 No.-

To achieve Sustainable Development Goal 5: Gender Equality, it is necessary to know the current state of the gaps between men and women; For this, having reliable data, not only disaggregated by sex but also analyzed with a gender and intersectional perspective, is essential. The absence of statistics on the lives of women and girls has been a constant concern of activists, researchers, and global entities such as UN, which in each report on gender highlights the urgency of implementing national and local mechanisms for the collection, analysis and the dissemination of gender statistics that are the basis for high-level decision-making, especially in public entities. Since 2019, and within the framework of the global program "Women Count" led by UN Women, the Presidential Council for Women's Equity of Colombia and four Observatories of Women and Gender Affairs in Colombia, have received advice and technical assistance to strengthen their capacities around the use of gender statistics for the design of public policies. This paper generally reviews the findings of the publication " Gender Profile. Gaps in Antioquia" a comparative analysis of the situation of women in the state during the last 10 years (2009-2019) and explains the usefulness and impact of such a publication in the context of public administration in the department of Antioquia in Colombia.

CONSUMER RESPONSES TO CONTROVERSIAL MARKETING COMMUNICATIONS - THE CASE OF H&M’S “COOLEST MONKEY IN THE JUNGLE” MERCHANDISE

Jenny Ma 글로벌지식마케팅경영학회 2018 Global Marketing Conference Vol.2018 No.07

Insensitivity to racial issues has long been one of the main causes of controversy in marketing, and its significance has recently resurfaced due to the current political and social climate caused by events such as the American presidential election and Brexit. In the marketing field, current cases such as advertising from Kellogg’s and Dove have caused outrage across social media. This has shown that even experienced marketers can still find themselves being accused of insensitivity or even racism. With the help of social media, the cases such as those may lead to negative consumer-generated brand stories online and could damage the brand (Gensler et al., 2013;Gr?goire, Salle, & Tripp, 2015). This paper has chosen to address the recent case of H&M, which has faced online criticism and consumer protests due to its UK website showing a boy of African descent wearing a hoodie bearing the words “coolest monkey in the jungle”. The aim of this study is to understand consumers’ initial responses on social media to this case, in order to provide further recommendations to marketers in today’s complex society. A netnography approach was used to collect qualitative data from Facebook, Youtube, and Twitter, and the data was analysed using thematic analysis through Nvivo 11. The results show that this case has demonstrated the stages of “Hashtag activism”, explained by Bonila and Rosa (2015): 1) eyewitness report, 2) hashtag accompanied by the photos of individuals or groups of people, then finally, 3) widely circulated meme. The main discussion on social media focused on individual opinions regarding racism, which can be explained by the assertion that contents on social media are generated by individual users to present and construct new self-identity through social interaction, and politics is becoming a personal expression of ideas (Gil de Z??iga, Molyneux, & Zheng, 2014; Vromen, Xenos, & Loader, 2015; Lindgren, 2017). The results have also raised new questions concerning several marketing-related themes including the effect of media coverage, brand trust, intentionally controversial marketing, social climate, and direct recommendations for H&M. The findings will provide practical recommendations for marketers, including in relation to managing diversity issues, constantly building a brand image, and identifying and acting upon the sensitive issues within different cultural contexts. As a preliminary study, the limitation of this study lies in the timeline of the research and the amount of data. Further research is recommended to conduct a longitudinal study to gain a more complete view of how the incident may affect consumers and brands over time.

Faking It Right: The King as a Precise Imitator of the True Statesman

Jenny K. Strandberg 한국서양고전학회 2021 西洋古典學硏究 Vol.60 No.3

In the Sophist, the Eleatic visitor distinguishes between precise and belief mimicry as having versus lacking knowledge of what one is imitating. Imitation is an important theme in the Statesman as well, where the visitor follows up with a portrait of the true statesman. But the earlier distinction is conspicuously missing in this conversation. My objective here is to analyze political mimesis from the perspective of precise and belief mimicry. I identify the king, who rules with opinion and according to laws, as a potential precise mimic of the true statesman. As such, he occupies a liminal position between sophistry and the demanding true statesman ideal and comes to represent a more realistic political vision on the part of the visitor. The mimetic king does not have direct knowledge in statesmanship, which seems almost impossible to attain, but a second order knowledge of someone who has expertise. He knows the true statesman’s character and manner of rule and is therefore able to imitate this ideal precisely. Since the other mimetic rulers lack this knowledge, they produce merely artificial images of true statesmen. Hence, I argue that, of all the mimetic rulers in the Statesman, only the king is faking it right. I make this point in the larger context of the threat posed by tyranny in the dialogue. An ignorant monarch could claim to be a true expert and demand to rule with absolute sovereignty, like a true statesman, thus establishing tyranny. In this case, the protection that a strict law-state would provide against the abuses of ignorant rulers would fail. Claiming to know what he does not know, coupled with the general population’s inability to see through this act of deception, the greatest sophist among sophists could cease power. To prevent this from happening, the visitor must clearly define how a tyrant is discernably different from a true statesman. In my interpretation, he articulates the telltale sign of a tyrant as a monarch who claims to be a true statesman. The king who rules with opinion and according to laws would not make such a claim, and neither would a ruler who truly possesses knowledge. A monarch who has knowledge should, in the visitor’s judgment, remain king and rule indistinguishable in name from less enlightened monarchs, who have merely an opinion in statesmanship. Hence, in not identifying herself as a true statesman, the true expert becomes markedly different from the one who does identify as such—the greatest fraud of all, the tyrant. From this it follows that it is not possible to imitate the highest political ideal more precisely than the king who rules with opinion and law, since anyone who claims to have realized the ideal exactly is a tyrant. The king manages to fake it right by acknowledging both what he does not know, i.e., statecraft, and what he knows, i.e., the character and manner of rule of a genuine statesman.

From Monocultural to Multilingual : Strategic Innovation in an Australian Construction Union

Jenny Kwai-Sim Leung,Kieran James 한국고용노사관계학회 2010 産業關係硏究 Vol.20 No.1

We present a detailed case study of the relationship between migrant labour and a labour union in a period immediately after twelve years of hostile neo-liberal politics in Australia: 1996-2007. We find that Australia’s Construction Forestry Mining and Energy Union (CFMEU) Construction & General Division has reinvented itself in the face of sustained institutional hostility at governmental and industrial levels. In the process the union has become a valuable arm of assistance for migrant workers in their endeavors to access acceptable wages, decent working conditions, and post-Dickensian standards of workplace safety. We present two micro-cases that detail worker exploitation and the strategic counter-moves of the union aimed at deepening the solidarity existing in marginalized groups of South Korean and Indian workers. We document a dedicated organizational strategy of humanitarian action towards migrant workers which both goes far beyond the normal expectations of union membership and contrasts with governmental moves to typecast Australian unions as selfish, violent, and irrelevant. The South Korean ceramic tilers, under the leadership of the CFMEU’s Mr Chikmann Koh, can be held out to be a case of ‘social movement unionism’.

Vitamin D Status and Bone Mineral Density in Children with Inflammatory Bowel Disease Compared to Those with Functional Abdominal Pain

Jenny Sohn,장은재,양혜란 대한의학회 2017 Journal of Korean medical science Vol.32 No.6

Low vitamin D has been implicated in reduced bone mineral density (BMD) in children with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Our study aimed to evaluate differences in serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25[OH]D) and total body less head (TBLH) BMD z-scores in children with Crohn's disease (CD), ulcerative colitis (UC), and those with abdominal pain-related functional gastrointestinal disorder (AP-FGID) as the control group. We also examined the correlation between serum 25(OH)D and TBLH BMD z-score, and factors that affect each of these parameters. A total of 105 children were included and divided into 3 groups: AP-FGID (n = 45), CD (n = 43), and UC (n = 17). Among the 3 study groups, TBLH BMD z-scores were found to be significantly different (0.5 ± 0.8 in CD vs. 0.1 ± 0.8 in UC vs. −0.1 ± 1.1 in FGID; P = 0.037), despite similar levels of serum 25(OH)D. Within each study group, correlation between serum 25(OH)D and TBLH BMD z-score was not observed. Factors found to affect the TBLH BMD z-score were sex (P = 0.018), age (P = 0.005) and serum hemoglobin (P = 0.041), while factors influencing serum 25(OH)D were sex (P = 0.018), CD with reference to AP-FGID (P = 0.020), and serum phosphorus (P = 0.018). Based on our results, vitamin D is a relatively small contributor to bone loss in pediatric IBD and clinicians should consider female sex, older age, and low hemoglobin as risk factors for low BMD in children with IBD.

Stimulating or Suppressing - The Effects of Different Types of Instruction on Rated Creativity

Jenny Liu,Weihua Niu,Debora Day 대한사고개발학회 2010 The International Journal of Creativity & Problem Vol.20 No.2

A total of 128 high school sophomores in two different academic levels participated in a study to examine the effect of different instructions on rated creativity. In each level, students were randomly assigned into one of three groups and were given instructions emphasizing no special focus, positive encouragement, or pressured encouragement, to use in completing two creativity tasks in the art and literature domains. It was hypothesized that both positive and pressured encourage-ment instructions would promote students’ creativity. It was also hypothesized that students with relatively higher academic preparation (level 1) would benefit more from the positive encouragement instruction, whereas students with relatively lower academic preparation (level 2) would benefit more from the pressured encouragement instruction. A 2 (domain of creativity: art and literature) X 3 (ways of instruction: no-focus, positive encouragement, and pressured encouragement) X 2 (gender: female and male) X 2 (academic level: level 1 vs. level 2) factorial mixed design ANCOVA was used to analyze the data to test the above two hypothesis. Results in both domains of this study supported the two hypotheses. In addition, results also indicated that girls’ average creativity is negatively affected by pressured encouragement instruction while boys’ is not. Findings from this research will assist in future studies exploring promoting individuals’ creativity in high school.

WHAT CAN WE KNOW FROM SELFIES- AN EXPLORATORY STUDY ONSELFIE AND THE IMPLICATION FOR MARKETERS

Jenny Weichen Ma,Yusheng Yang 글로벌지식마케팅경영학회 2016 Global Marketing Conference Vol.2016 No.7

Although “selfie” has become a social phenomenon, little is discussed in marketing literature regarding what marketers can actually learn from consumers using selfies. This study has collected cross-cultural data of a total of 396 selfie photos from Twitter and Sina Weibo, in order to provide empirical evidence that leads to a better understanding on selfies. The results emphasise the cross-cultural differences on taking selfies and how selfie as another form of consumers presenting the “ideal self” may influence what information marketers can obtain from consumer selfies. The limitations due to data collection methods are noted and implications for marketers are also discussed.
