In this paper, we present a study about the process of convergency and divergency in the dialect contact. The pluralization of haber is very widespread in the Spanish of the Dominican Republic, but it is almost non-existent in Madrid. The analysis of these varieties is useful in order to observe and explain the process of international dialect contact. The importance of the study of non-variation within the linguistic of migration is point out. The results of the research highlight two main features: a) Madrilenian variety prestige does not influence some linguistic variables among Dominicans in Madrid; b) the perception and frequency of the variable impacts the process of convergence and divergence of the speakers.

Begun in the late 1990s, this research aims to identify the arrival of the evangelists to the Amarakaeris people. The newspaper "El Comercio" was the first source of information, afterwards "La Revista Dominicana" and the magazine of the "Sociedad Geográfica de Lima" were reviewed, ending with other possibilities. The role of the Dominican congregation is not too far of the evangelism and colonisation process around America, and the world by other sects. The removal of idolatries was the most used implement notwithstanding, the past and current Press attempt to make the Dominican Fathers look like saviours of soulless natives. The other form of violence was even more open and miserable: the rubber boom with Fitzcarrald in command. In one way or the other two different worldviews faced each other in disadvantage. It is been proven that the fantasy, myths, and legends take their origin fr...

The Yaque Norte is one of the most important rivers in the Dominican Republic, it is used for consumption purposes, reserve dams, hydroelectric plants, irrigation and others; however, the evidence shows that many of the domestic and industrial effluents are discharged directly into its waters, without prior treatment. In the present work, a physicochemical and microbiological evaluation of surface waters in the upper, middle and lower basin of the Yaque del Norte River is carried out, using the Standard Methods for water analysis. The results show that there are no significant differences in the physicochemical parameters: pH, salinity, conductivity, turbidity, total solids and hardness; however, these parameters show alterations along the river. The levels of total coliforms, fecal or thermotolerant coliforms and Escherichia coli exceed the limits established in the Dominican regulation...

In the context of the virtualization of university education due to the Covid-19 pandemic, we conducted a study to establish the determinants of the intention to use the virtual classroom, following a theoretical model based on the Technology Acceptance Model modified by Park (2009) and including the factors Attitude, Perceived Usefulness, Perceived Ease, Virtual Self-Efficacy, Subjective Norm and Accessibility of the system. The sample consisted of 1260 self-selected students from 13 Dominican universities. To check the validity and reliability of the measurement instrument, we performed a Confirmatory Factor Analysis, which determined that the System Accessibility factor had to be eliminated because it was based on a single item that did not have discriminatory validity. One item was eliminated from the Subjective Norm factor to bring it to an acceptable reliability. In general, the va...

This research is a case study that presents the systematization of an educational experience in the Dominican Republic focused on the development of collective memory and social justice. This systematization represents a teaching strategy that promotes intergenerational dialogue on the experiences of a generation that lived through the historical and sociocultural context of Fulgencio Batista’s dictatorship, and young people who have learned about it through readings from the school curriculum and exposure to the mass media. The significance of the strategy lies in the identification and examination of concepts developed from a historical-cultural perspective linking education and human development. Key concepts include experience, the social situation of development, knowledge and identity backgrounds, and consciousness

Male sex workers (MSW) in the Dominican Republic (DR) have multiple sexual partners, including personal and client-relationships, and are disproportionately affected by human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). We examined the prevalence of condomless anal and/or vaginal intercourse (CI) among MSW in the DR as a function of social network factors. Self-report surveys and social network interviews were administered to MSW recruited through venue-based sampling (N = 220). A generalized linear model was used to complete a Poisson Regression model and identify variables significantly associated with the outcome of interest. CI was more common with female (28.3%) than with male partners (4.9%). Factors associated with CI with the last female partner included older age of MSW, CI with the last male partner, having a stable female partner (a consistent or main partner), and having ≥1 family member ...

The study addresses the challenge of geomechanical characterization of carbonate rocks affected by dissolution and karstification, which are notadequately assessed using conventional classification methods. These methods focus on structures such as joints and fractures, overlooking specificfeatures of carbonate rocks, such as cavities. Thus, the main objective of the research is to evaluate the geomechanical characteristics of rockmasses affected by dissolution in order to establish a suitable geomechanical classification. The methodology used was descriptive, based on structured observation through detailed geological mapping, geomechanical assessments, laboratory tests, and borehole logging.Various lithotypes and their geomechanical behavior were evaluated, considering factors such as strength, weathering, rock mass structure, and cavity characteristics (shape, size, infill, moisture, ...
