DE L’INTENSITE Á L’EXTENSITE DANS REINE OR DE FATOU SY
Alidieta DRABO
C’est une évolution de la sémiotique des passions. Cependant,
étant moderne de la sémiotique narrative, elle évalue la tension
intra-textuelle en insistant sur ses effets de sens. La tensivité, se
fondant sur l’intensité et l’extensité, mesure et dénombre la
tonicité, le rythme spatio-temporel. L’étude porte sur la pièce de
théâtre de Fat(...)

Copulas approach for modeling the stochastic dependence of three physicochemical components of groundwater in the province of Sissili (Burkina Faso)
Fabrice Ouoba ; Vini Yves Bernadin Loyara ; Sibiri Narcisse Dolemweogo and Diakarya Barro
This study aims to model the stochastic dependence between potassium (K+), iron (Fe2+), and ammonium (NH+ 4) concentrations in groundwater from the Sissili province in Burkina Faso. To achieve this, we rely on the Student, Frank, and H¨ usler–Reiss copulas to capture the full range of hydro-geochemical dependence structures. This statistical a(...)

Background In South-Western Burkina Faso, where malaria remains highly endemic, the widespread resistance
of Anopheles mosquitoes to pyrethroid is reducing the effectiveness of insecticide-treated nets (ITNs). This study
assessed 3-year trends in key entomological indicators following the deployment of standard pyrethroid-only

Adéquation formation emploi au Burkina Faso : quelle pourrait être la contribution de l’approche par les compétences dans les formations professionnalisantes à l’université ?
Lucien ZAONGO
Au Burkina Faso, un paradoxe existe entre l'augmentation des taux de scolarisation et le chômage élevé parmi les jeunes diplômés. En effet, ce chômage a atteint 13,4% en 2023 pour les titulaires de diplômes supérieurs. L’inadéquation entre les compétences acquises lors des formations et celles attendues par les employeurs contribue à ce phénom(...)
