Saat ini masyarakat sedang dihadapkan dengan isu resesi dunia yang diperkirakan akan terjadi pada tahun 2023 mendatang. Potensi resesi 2023 membuat banyak negara mulai kalang kabut, bagaimana tidak negara Amerika yang memiliki julukan sebagai negara ekonomi paling kuat saja dikatakan sulit untuk menghindari resesi. Hal ini dibuktikan dengan adanya artikel yang berjudul Sri Mulyani Prediksi 4 Negara Masih Kebal Resesi 2023, Termasuk RI menjelaskan bahwa “Sementara, negara seperti Amerika Serikat, Inggris, Eropa dan China dikatakan sulit untuk mengindari resesi” (CNN Indonesia, 2022). Resesi dapat disebabkan oleh beberapa faktor seperti inflasi yang tinggi, bank sentral di berbagai negara memutuskan untuk menaikkan suku bunga dengan sangat agresif, perang antara Rusia dan Ukraina, krisis pangan, krisis energi, serta pengaruh kondisi dari ekonomi global (Ika, 2022). Selain itu perlu diketahui bahwa sebelum terjadinya resesi, umumnya akan muncul indikator-indikator yang membuat pengamat ekonomi memutuskan untuk bersiaga atas potensi terjadinya resesi tersebut, indikator resesi sendiri meliputi terjadinya inflasi, pertumbuhan ekonomi yang mengalami penurunan selama dua kuartal berturut-turut, gelembung aset, dan lain sebagainya.

Pada tahun 2023, dunia global dihadapkan dengan adanya ancaman resesi dimanaakan tejadi krisis fianansial yang berlarut. Dalam ekonomi makro, resesi adalah suatukondisi dimana produk domestik bruto (GDP) mmenurun atau pertumbuhan ekonomi riilbersifat negatif selama dua kuartal atau dalam satu tahun. Dengan kata lain, menurunnyaaktivitas ekonomi dalam jangka waktu yang lama secara signifikan.Resesi ini dapat terjadi atau disebabkan karena raingkaian aktivitas ekonomi ataukejadian di masyarakat dan perkembangan teknologi. Rangkaian tersebut yakni adanyaguncangan ekonomi secara tiba-tiba berdamapak pada melemahnya atau meningkatnyadaya beli masyarakat yang berlebihan. Jika daya beli masyarakat melemah secaraberlebihan, maka akan terjadi inflasi dimana harga barang dan jasa naik, ini juga akanberpengaruh pada tingginya suku bunga yang dapat mengancam perbankan. Sedangkan,jika daya beli masyarakat meningkat secara berlebihan, maka akan terjadi deflasi dimanaharga barang dan jasa turun sehingga menjadi ancaman bagi penyedia barang dan jasa.

Authors: Ciarrochi Joseph , Sahdra Baljinder K. , Hayes Steven C. , Hofmann Stefan G. , Sanford Brandon , Stanton Cory , Yap Keong , Fraser Madeleine , Gates Kathleen , Gloster Andrew
Published: January 2023

Background. Identifying the most important psychological drivers of well-being for a particular individual is critical to developing personalised interventions. Methods. We utilised three, intensive daily diary studies (within person measurement occasions N >50) across three data sets (n1=44; n2=37; n3=141) to examine within-person associations between clinically-relevant processes and a variety of outcomes. We utilised a novel idiographic algorithm, ”i-ARIMAX,” to calculate the strength of relationship (beta) between every process and every outcome within individuals. We then submitted all betas to meta-analytic methods. Results. All process-outcome links were highly heterogeneous between individuals. Processes that were associated with positive outcomes for some people were often unrelated to outcomes for others or associated with negative outcomes. Conclusion. i-ARIMAX might be used to guide personalised interventions and to reduce the number of candidate variables for complicated within-person analysis.

How do journals deal with problematic articles. Editorial response of journals to articles commented in PubPeer
Authors: Delgado-Quirós Lorena
Published: January 2023

The aim of this article is to explore the editorial response of journals to research articles that may contain methodological errors or misconduct. A total of 17,244 articles commented on in PubPeer, a post-publication peer review site, were processed and classified according to several error and fraud categories. Then, the editorial response (i.e., editorial notices) to these papers were retrieved from PubPeer, Retraction Watch, and PubMed to obtain the most comprehensive picture. The results show that only 21.5% of the articles that deserve an editorial notice (i.e., honest errors, methodological flaws, publishing fraud, manipulation) were corrected by the journal. This percentage would climb to 34% for 2019 publications. This response is different between journals, but cross-sectional across all disciplines. Another interesting result is that high-impact journals suffer more from image manipulations, while plagiarism is more frequent in low-impact journals. The study concludes with the observation that the journals have to improve their response to problematic articles.

Berdamai Dengan Inovasi Disrupsi dalam Resesi 2023
Authors: Rizky Hafizh
Published: January 2023

Resesi menjadi suatu hal yang sedang ramai diperbincangkan belakangan ini. Banyak pakar ekonomi dan keuangan yang memperkirakan resesi akan terjadi pada tahun 2023 mendatang. Namun sebelumnya, apakah resesi itu? Sebenarnya tidak ada definisi resmi mengenai resesi, tetapi terdapat pengakuan umum yang menyebutkan bahwa resesi mengacu pada periode penurunan aktivitas ekonomi. Beberapa analis juga menyebutkan bahwa resesi merupakan penurunan dua kuartal berturut-turut dalam produk domestik bruto suatu negara. The National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER) mendefinisikan resesi sebagai penurunan signifikan dalam aktivitas ekonomi yang tersebar di seluruh sektor perekonomian yang berlangsung lebih dari beberapa bulan. Resesi dimulai ketika ekonomi mencapai puncak aktivitas dan berakhir ketika ekonomi mencapai titik terendahnya.
Experimentally Varying Sex Ratios and Masculine Cues Affect Attitudes Towards Promiscuity and Self-Reported Mate Value.
Authors: Gouda-Vossos Amany , Brooks Robert , Dixson Barnaby
Published: January 2023

Sex ratios influence intrasexual competition with consequences for a variety of behaviours, including social attitudes. Cues of masculinity, such as beards, are also known to respond to the local intensity of intrasexual competition. Whether different cues of intrasexual competition interact or have additive effects on behaviour remains unknown. Here we test whether attitudes concerning promiscuity and self-reported mate value are influenced by the relative numbers of women and men, and/or the frequency of bearded men. We primed subjects (men= 540, women= 522) with one of the nine possible combinations of three sex ratios (female bias 3:1; neutral 1:1; male bias 1:3) and three frequency of beards (0%; 50%; 100%) treatments. To simulate local mating market effects, participants were informed that images were of dating profiles of people ‘within 5 miles’ of them. After rating each profile for attractiveness, participants were asked to complete the wrongness of promiscuity and self-reported mate value scales. We found that men, but not women, view both male and female promiscuity more negatively when exposed to male-biased sex ratios and rate female promiscuity slightly more negatively when exposed to men with beards than clean-shaven men. The male-specific nature of these effects is consistent with anti-promiscuity attitudes functioning to promote paternity certainty rather than facilitating female-female competition for male investment. We found no evidence of self-reported mate value increasing when individuals were the rarer sex. However, there were sex differences in relative ratings of male and female promiscuity among individuals with more open sociosexual orientations, a finding relevant to the origins of sexual double standards.
The effectiveness of microtargeting using aesthetic cues: Studies based on personality traits
Authors: Bowden-Green Thomas , Hinds Joanne , Joinson Adam
Published: January 2023

Following the rise in audience data, and the potential to communicate with individuals through social media, ‘microtargeting’ on the basis of personality traits is an advertising technique that has attracted much recent discussion. Yet, the supporting literature for such ‘psychographic’ messaging is relatively limited. Beyond one prominent study based on tailoring product attributes, few have attempted to target using wider variables. Based on separate earlier evidence suggesting the appeal of specific messaging, imagery, and colours, this preliminary paper explores the effectiveness of targeting extraverts in particular by altering the aesthetics of social media content. We undertake two initial studies indicating that, when offered the choice of two social media adverts, extraverts do not prefer an advert featuring aesthetic cues intended to appeal to them. Second, across both Facebook and Instagram, adverts designed to display aesthetic cues that relate to extraversion, fail to appeal to extraverts. Despite the fanfare around the potential for this marketing practice therefore, we discuss the practical difficulties for marketers.
Disjunctions, Metadisjunctions, and Mental Models
Authors: Sklarek Benjamin , Knauff Markus , Johnson-Laird Philip Nicholas
Published: January 2023

A disjunction of two assertions, Either p or else q, but not both, where p and q are everyday assertions, is equivalent to a metadisjunction, such as:Witness 1 asserts p.Witness 2 asserts q.One witness is telling the truth, and one witness is lying.In normal logics, the disjunction and metadisjunction have the same ‘truth-functional’ meanings: they are true provided that one of their two clauses, p and q, is true and one of them is false. The theory of mental models differs: the disjunction refers to a conjunction of two possibilities, p and q, that hold in default of knowledge to the contrary. Intuitive models represent the two possibilities as p and as q; deliberative models represent them as p and not-q and as not-p and q. Four experiments showed that people tend to rely on intuitive models, which for certain predictable inferences lead them into systematic errors. They also showed that participants infer that a metadisjunction of assertions of explicit possibilities: possibly p or possibly q implies possibly p. This inference violates all normal logics, which rely on the truth-functional meaning of disjunctions. A similar well-known ‘paradox’ concerns permission, e.g.: You can have a court-appointed lawyer or a private lawyer; therefore, you can have a private lawyer. The multitude of theories of these paradoxes either maintain the truth-functions semantics and posit that disjunctions yield pragmatic inferences, or else, like the model theory, posit an alternative semantics. Our results are contrary to the pragmatic accounts, because a metadisjunction depends, not on a single disjunction, but on several assertions.
Falsifying the Insufficient Adjustment Model: No Evidence for Unidirectional Adjustment From Anchors
Authors: Röseler Lukas , Incerti Lisa , Rebholz Tobias R. , Seida Christian , Papenmeier Frank
Published: January 2023

After considering a more or less random number (i.e., an anchor), people’s subsequent estimates are biased toward that number. Such anchoring phenomena have been explained via an adjustment process that ends too early. We present a formalized version of the insufficient adjustment model, which captures the idea that decreasing the time that people have to adjust from anchors draws their estimates closer to the anchors. In four independent studies (N = 898), we could not confirm this effect of time on anchoring. Moreover, anchoring effects vanished in the two studies that deviated from classical paradigms by using a visual scale or a two-alternative forced-choice paradigm to allow faster responses. Although we propose that the current version of the insufficient adjustment model should be discarded, we believe that adjustment models hold the most potential for the future of anchoring research, and we make suggestions for what these might look like.
Exploring the absence of episodic memory benefits from post-encoding emotional arousal and novelty manipulations in humans
Authors: Sazma Matthew
Published: January 2023

It is now well-established that a brief period of stress immediately after learning can be beneficial for memory. These results indicate that even after memories have been formed, they can still be enhanced by certain psychological and biological processes. Although this benefit of post-encoding stress is well established, the exact mechanisms and limits of this effect are still debated. Determining the effects of other, non-stressful, post-encoding manipulations such as emotional arousal or novel spatial exploration can provide important data for understanding these effects. To this end, we conducted a series of five experiments using the same stimuli and study designs that have been used in post-encoding stress studies. Experiments 1 and 2 examined memory for neutral and negative pictures and found that emotional arousal after learning did not benefit memory. Experiments 3 and 4 examined whether post-encoding emotional arousal might benefit memory for verbal, rather than visual items, but again there was no benefit of post-encoding arousal on either true or false memory. Experiment 5 examined whether a novel exploration task after learning would provide a memory benefit, but again there was no memory benefit. Taken together, these results suggest that post-encoding periods of arousal and novelty do not appear to produce the same types of memory benefits that are produced by stress, which provides further support for the critical role of glucocorticoids in post-encoding memory benefits.
About time? The role of time perspective in the priority for positive over negative emotion in attention
Authors: Kennedy Briana Lee , Mather Mara
Published: January 2023

Compared to younger adults, older adults seem to prioritize processing positive information and deprioritize processing negative information. Known as the positivity effect, its mechanisms remain debated. One explanation of the positivity effect is that older adults are influenced by a sense of limited time left in life to focus more on emotional well-being compared with younger adults. Previous research shows that experimentally manipulating time perspective can mimic the positivity effect in younger adults, however such findings have relied on designs where participants can reflect on emotional images they are viewing. In the current study, we examined if time perspective manipulations would similarly elicit positivity effect patterns in younger adults using an emotion-attention task with rapid stimuli display. Across two experiments (N = 236 and N = 431), we found that time perspective had no influence on biases toward positive over negative emotional stimuli in younger adults. We instead found effects driven by time-related trait biases. We discuss these results as they relate to theories about mechanisms underlying the positivity effect and in the way that time-related biases may change the way individuals perceptually prioritize positive and negative information.
Combination of Cluster Analysis with Dimensionality Reduction Techniques for Pattern Recognition Studies in Healthcare Data: Comparing PCA, t-SNE and UMAP
Authors: Sánchez-Rico Marina , Hoertel Nicolas , Alvarado Jesús M.
Published: January 2023

This study compares the performance of three dimensionality reduction techniques: Principal Component Analysis (PCA), t-Stochastic Neighbor Embedding (t-SNE) and Uniform Manifold Approximation and Projection (UMAP), when applied with a hierarchical cluster analysis for pattern recognition. We used this methodology in 240 synthetic datasets, each simulating a sample of patients with j binary diagnosis grouped in $k$ predefined clusters. For each dataset, we retrieved $k$ using hierarchical cluster analyses, and evaluated the quality and accuracy of the model using four cluster validation indices. Results suggest that UMAP performs better than PCA and is more efficient than t-SNE under these conditions.
Do employees hold the key to environmental sustainability in tourism businesses? Empirical evidence from a field study
Authors: Cvelbar Ljubica Knezevic , Grün Bettina , Dolnicar Sara
Published: January 2023

The tourism industry must reduce the negative impacts of its operations on the environment to secure its own prosperity into the future and to contribute to humanity’s collective aim of more sustainable production and consumption. An increasing number of studies in sustainable tourism have attempted to develop and test in the field the effectiveness of behavioural change interventions aimed at enticing tourism stakeholders in behaving more sustainably. These efforts have focused primarily on tourists. Employees have been largely neglected as potential agents of change, despite the substantial environmental consequences of their behaviours. This article pioneers this area of investigation. In a quasi-experimental field study conducted during regular operations of two hotels in Europe, we demonstrate that an equity-theory based behavioural intervention can successfully reduce the number of single-use shampoos dispensed by hotel cleaning staff during daily routine room cleans. Results are of immediate value to managers of tourism businesses – especially those of small and medium sized accommodation providers who do not have the financial means to make major infrastructure changes – by equipping them with a practical measure they can easily deploy to reduce the negative impact on the environment of their operations while also reducing their operating cost.
Imaginary Ties
Authors: Bloom Nick
Published: January 2023

Contemporary social network analysis often jettisons the core commitments of earlier social structuralism while retaining its causal imagery. This creates a dilemma, as these social-structuralist commitments defined the substance of social network analysis and justified its claims about the causal priority of social ties. Using data from the National Study of Youth and Religion, I sharpen this dilemma by demonstrating that people’s social network ties to God predict behavior as well as (or better than) other social-structural measures, and have consequences for other ties in the network. Imaginary ties are measured identically to concrete ties, but cannot reasonably be interpreted as true network effects. Since this point generalizes to several empirical cases now commonly used in social network analysis, I argue for a completely descriptive interpretation of network effects. This opens network methods to broader applications, creating new possibilities for future theoretical and empirical work.
Aestheticism in Uttam Nepali’s Abstract Works
Authors: Rajbhandari Jasmine
Published: January 2023

The aim of this paper is to explore aesthetic beauty in abstract paintings of Uttam Nepali. The available researches had only found out that he was an abstract painter and painted his feelings and emotions. This article argues that forms and colors he created are for the sake of their beauty. The art forms provide aesthetic pleasure to the viewers. The abstract paintings are analyzed and interpreted in qualitative method. The article focuses that Nepali created the structure of colors and lines by proper arrangements which increases the aesthetic qualities of abstract works and has no any utility purpose. It concludes that the value of Uttam Nepali’s abstract art in the development of Nepali contemporary art is only because of his individual aesthetic form.
Leadership Theory of Human Relationship and its Educational Implication
Authors: Pokhrel Mohan Mani
Published: January 2023

The paper explores the concept of leadership, human relationship theory, its assumptions, contribution to education and criticism. Drawing on relevant existing literature, this document-based paper reports that the theory of human relationship emphasizes the study of behaviour of workers and examines the effects of social relations, motivation and employee satisfaction on productivity. The main finding in relation to this theory is that the physical condition of a workplace does not determine the employee’s morale and output but group efforts and effective human relation increase workers' morale and productivity. The effective implementation of the theory of human relation develops workers’ efficiency, service quality in any organization, which the educational institutions that produce human resources need to consider while designing their policies and implementing their programs.

Randić index is one of the most famous topological graph indices. The energy of a graph was defined more than four decades ago for its molecular applications. The classical energy of a graph modeling a molecule is defined as the sum of absolute values of all the eigenvalues of the adjacency matrix corresponding to the modeling graph. There are several other versions of the energy notion obtained using other types of graph matrices. In this paper, we are introducing and investigating the Randić type Hadi energy RHE(G) of a graph G, determine several properties of it, and calculate RHE(G) for several interesting graphs.

Authors: Jain Bandana Kumari
Published: January 2023

The study attempts to explore the factors of work-life balance (WLB)amid the pandemic and the effects of these derived factors on the overall perception of WLB of bank employees. The quantitative research method was harnessed to explore the objectives. Employees of commercial banks serving in the Morang district, one of the 77 administrative units of Nepal, during the pandemic were the population of the study. Primary data were collected using structured questionnaires. Snowball and purposive sampling methods were implied to get the sample of 193 bank employees. The study extracted four factors; personal demand, family demand, work demand, and social demand dimensions of WLB duringCovid-19. And personal demand factor of WLB stood as the most significant out of the other two significant factors namely family and work demand factors to influence the overall perception of WLB amidst the pandemic. Employees’ self-care and self-development needs are to be incorporated while formulating policies of the organization and more specifically WLB during the traumatic conditions.

Application of Continued Fraction in Pell's Equation
Authors: Tamang Bal Bahadur
Published: January 2023

This paper uses a continued fraction to explain various approaches to solving Diophantine equations. It first examines the fundamental characteristics of continued fractions, such as convergent and approximations to real numbers. Using continued fractions, we can solve the Pell's equation. Certain theorems have also been discussed for how to expand quadratic irrational integers into periodic continued fractions. Finally, the relationship between convergent and best approximations and use of continuous fraction in calendar construction has-been investigated. The analytical theory of continued fractions is a significant generalization of continued fractions and represents a large field for current and future research.

En la Estación Experimental “Dr. Mario A. Cassinoni” (EEMAC) de la Facultad de Agronomía (Paysandú, Uruguay; 32,5º de latitud sur y 58º de longitud oeste), se estudió el efecto del peso vivo al inicio del confinamiento (24,9 ± 3,4 y 34,1 ± 3,1 kg) y del genotipo (Poll Dorset x Corriedale, Dohne Merino X Corriedale, Southdown x Corriedale y Highlander x Corriedale) sobre características de canal y de la carne de corderos pesados criados a pasto y terminados en confinamiento. Se utilizó un diseño experimental completamente aleatorizado con arreglo factorial de tratamientos y 3 repeticiones de cuatro corderos cada una. El uso de razas carniceras en cruzamientos terminales y el peso vivo al inicio del confinamiento originaron diferencias en características de canal, sin registrarse mayores cambios en las variables de calidad de carne, que dependieron del tipo de músculo evaluado.
Efecto de las plantaciones forestales sobre el recurso agua en el Uruguay
Authors: Silveira L. , Alonso J. , Martínez L.
Published: January 2023

El desarrollo de la forestación industrial en el Uruguay, sustituyendo tierras de pastoreo para uso ganadero por plantaciones de Eucalyptus y Pinus, ha causado preocupación respecto a sus efectos sobre los recursos naturales, particularmente aguas y suelos. En ese contexto se emprenden estudios de investigación con el propósito de obtener indicadores de manejo forestal sustentable. Este trabajo presenta los avances en el conocimiento de los efectos de la forestación sobre el recurso hídrico en el Uruguay, en base a los resultados obtenidos hasta el presente en proyectos de investigación de la Red Temática de Ingeniería Agrícola de la Universidad de la República. Se describen los estudios realizados en una macrocuenca de 2.097 km2 , con una superficie forestada de 540 km2 y en dos microcuencas experimentales, la primera forestada con Eucalyptus y la testigo con tapiz herbáceo para uso ganadero, ubicadas en la misma región, bajo condiciones hidrológicas similares. Los resultados disponibles permiten cuantificar tendencias en cuanto al: 1) efecto de las plantaciones sobre hidrogramas de tormentas (volúmenes escurridos y caudales máximos); 2) efecto de las plantaciones de Eucalyptus y Pinus sobre la escorrentía en macrocuencas, distinguiendo entre comportamiento anual y estacional, en el período preforestación (1975-1993), y el período posforestación (1994-2002); 3) precipitación directa y fustal, dos de las tres componentes en que se distribuye la lluvia en una plantación forestal; 4) relación entre humedad del suelo y capacidad de campo.

Authors: Lallana V. H. , Elizalde J. H. I. , Billard C. , Lallana M. del C.
Published: January 2023

Eryngium horridum (Malme) es una especie nativa, espinosa, agresiva que se encuentra en la mayor parte de las pasturas naturales de Entre Ríos (Argentina) y en la R. O. del Uruguay. Su invasión se produce en forma irregular, formando grupos, que reducen significativamente la superficie de pastoreo efectiva, compitiendo con las especies forrajeras por luz, agua y nutrientes. Es de difícil control por tratarse de una especie que se reproduce por semillas y también vegetativamente, mediante un potente rizoma, desde el cual normalmente progresan hasta 4 vástagos por planta. Se han obtenido resultados parciales en el control mediante la quema, el pastoreo, el control químico o mecánico. El objetivo fue evaluar el efecto del laboreo del suelo, realizado en otoño y primavera durante un año, sobre el control de Eryngium horridum y sobre la cobertura y composición específica del pastizal. La labor se efectuó con rastra de tiro excéntrico a una profundidad de 10 a 15cm. Los tratamientos fueron una pasada, doble pasada y un testigo sin laboreo. El T1, realizado en otoño, fue el que controló el “caraguatá” con el menor disturbio y enmalezamiento de la pastura.
KULTUROWE UWARUNKOWANIA ZARZĄDZANIA WIEDZĄ W ORGANIZACJACH PUBLICZNYCH

Published: January 2023

Knowledge and its management are considered, among others, in terms of a process and a system. In the first case it consists not only in gaining and processing knowledge but also in ensuring the development of the subject. On the other hand, the whole of the authorities and administrations responsible for the execution of public tasks, linked by information and remaining in the legally established competence relations, together with the auxiliary apparatus (administrative, staff, organizational) and the necessary infrastructure, constitute the knowledge management system. In both cases, we should talk about a special type of organizations functioning in the public sphere. For the authors, the point of reference for effective knowledge management are the feedback relations based on values and norms located in the organizational culture, affecting the development of its participants in both functional and processual sense, especially in today’s VUCA world. The organizational culture of public organizations determines the system and results of knowledge management. The question addressed in this article is an extension of this issue. It presents the relationship between organizational culture and knowledge management. The conclusions drawn include the following statements: there is no ideal model of organizational culture, adequate to the objectives of knowledge management; organizational culture affects the applied methods of knowledge management; values and norms must result from the knowledge strategy of public organizations; the model of organizational culture implemented in the public sphere must take into account the characteristics of national culture.

Objective: Multidimensional reconstruction is offered of the Poles’ attitudes towards public service and their diversification in various sociodemographic and psychographic categories. Methods: The approach to data collection included computer-assisted telephone research on a sample of N=1,200 adult Poles (18+) and an analysis using descriptive statistics and selected inductive statistics techniques (regression modeling, intergroup difference tests, multidimensional scaling). Results: Analyzes of aggregate and partial dimensions of the Poles’ attitudes towards the civil service were made, models of positive and negative features of the civil service were developed. Conclusions: The study updates the existing research on the image of the civil service in Polish society, has a diagnostic and comparative value. The proposed models have a practical value, pointing to the strengths and weaknesses of the civil service as perceived by the Polish society, broken down into various groups. The predictive value, implications and model validation procedures were discussed.
PRAWNOKARNE ŹRÓDŁA INSPIRACJI W PRAWIE OCHRONY KONKURENCJI I KONSUMENTÓW
Authors: Materna Grzegorz
Published: January 2023

The article deals with the issue of referrals to the study of criminal law as sources of inspiration for the enforcement of public law rules of competition and consumer protection (Act of February 16, 2007, on Competition and Consumer Protection (Journal of Laws of 2021, item 275) (oukk)). It is now widely accepted in antitrust jurisprudence that although the liability of the parties to the proceedings before the President of the Office of Competition and Consumer Protection (UOKiK) is not of criminal nature, and fines imposed by the President of UOKiK are not penalties within the meaning of the Criminal Code, the rules of judicial verification of the correctness of UOKiK’s decisions imposing these sanctions should meet the requirements analogous to those applicable by a court adjudicating in a criminal case. However, while there is little doubt that antitrust authorities should be required to apply standards of protection of fundamental rights as derived from the study of criminal law and international sources (European Convention on Human Rights, Charter of Fundamental Rights), the issue of transferring to competition and consumer law other standards recognized in criminal law remains open. The current jurisprudence contains divergent positions on this issue. The Supreme Court emphasized that „there are no justified grounds for applying the provisions of the general part of the Penal Code under the regime of administrative liability” (case I NSK 4/18). On the other hand, it approved references by analogy to the solutions taken from the Criminal Code in the absence of similar provisions in the uokk (case I NSK 8/19) or in cases where competition law uses concepts taken from criminal law (case I NSK 62/18). The article presents both of the jurisprudence lines mentioned above. In addition, the article point outs issues of competition and consumer protection law in the case of which, in the author’s opinion, the use of concepts derived from the study of criminal law would be justified.
ODPOWIEDZIALNOŚĆ ZA CZYN CIĄGŁY PO OSTATNICH NOWELIZACJACH KODEKSU KARNEGO
Authors: Zientara Anna
Published: January 2023

This study contains an analysis of the amendments to the Polish Penal Code relating to the term of continuous act made by the Act of October 4, 2018, and the Act of June 19, 2020. The first Act introduced a new section to Article 12 of the Penal Code, which states that “anyone who, in short intervals, using one and the same or identical opportunity or in a similar manner commits two or more intentional misdemeanors against property, if the total value of the property justifies liability for the crime, shall be held liable as for a single crime.” This provision raises a number of doubts about the nature of the institution it introduces – whether it is a type of continuous crime or a real concurrence of misdemeanors. The study also includes an analysis of the second amendment, which changed the penalty for a continuous act. An attempt is then made to evaluate the changes introduced by these two Acts.
PRAWNOKARNA KWALIFIKACJA BŁĘDU WYWOŁANEGO NIEŚWIADOMOŚCIĄ TREŚCI ZNAMIENIA TECHNICZNOPRAWNEGO I NORMATYWNEGO
Authors: Żółtek Sławomir , Leszczyński Aleksander
Published: January 2023

In criminal law there are basically two types of error – the error of fact and the error of law. The article focuses on the assignment to a specific category of errors caused by the unawareness of the content of the legal technical statutory elements and of normative statutory elements. Therefore, the study links the complicated problem of error with the problem of statutory elements, which is equally complicated and causes doubts in criminal law doctrine. In order to be able to carry out the task, the authors clarified the key concepts, and then conducted a dogmatic analysis of legal technical and normative statutory elements based on numerous examples.
PRZESTĘPSTWO KRADZIEŻY SZCZEGÓLNIE ZUCHWAŁEJ W KODEKSIE KARNYM Z 1997 R.
Authors: Błaszczyk Magdalena
Published: January 2023

The article is devoted to the specialized type of crime of theft that is particularly audacious theft, typified in Art. 278a of the Penal Code. The Penal Code of 1997 in its original version did not provide for this type of theft. It was added by way of an amendment to this act in June 2020. The crime was newly introduced to the Penal Code, but not a new one in the Polish criminal law system. It also appeared in the Penal Code of 1969. The considerations will center around the rationalization of the return to this typification. The main part of the article will be devoted to the dogmatic analysis of the features of the crime of particularly audacious theft in the current legal environment. It will be used to assess the quality of this typification. In her deliberations, the author will also consider the historical perspective, comparing the current approach to particularly audacious theft with that adopted in Art. 208 of the Polish Penal Code of 1969, as well as the systemic perspective related theft becoming a wobbler.
MOBBING – PRZEWINIENIE DYSCYPLINARNE – PRZESTĘPSTWO? ANALIZA NIEWŁAŚCIWYCH ZACHOWAŃ NAUCZYCIELI AKADEMICKICH W KONTEKŚCIE RÓŻNYCH REŻIMÓW ODPOWIEDZIALNOŚCI
Authors: Budyń-Kulik Magdalena
Published: January 2023

Certain behaviors of academic teachers towards students as well as university staff, both academic teachers and persons performing other functions, can be assessed as inappropriate, reprehensible. Some of those may be prohibited acts – crimes or offenses. Other may be disciplinary offenses or acts of mobbing. Sometimes the perpetrator’s act may fall into more than one category of behavior. Particularly noteworthy situations arise at the “confluence” of two or three regimes of responsibility.
Canadian Cultural Nationalism in the Time of Digital Platforms: Reframing Proposed Amendments to the Broadcasting Act
Authors: Bourcheix-Laporte Mariane
Published: January 2023

Background: Last amended in 1991, the Broadcasting Act has recently been the object of legislative reform projects with the aim of incorporating online broadcasting into the existing legislative and regulatory framework and expanding the diversity representation mandate of the Canadian broadcasting system.

Analysis: The article analyzes proposed amendments to the Broadcasting Act iterated in the third and final version of Bill C-10 (2021) and in the current version of Bill C-11 (2022) and develops a critical analysis of their implications vis-à-vis discursive constructions of Canadian cultural nationalism and the model of cultural citizenship that it fosters.

Conclusion and implications: Proposed amendments recuperate the cultural nationalist logic that underscores Canadian cultural policy’s efforts to secure cultural sovereignty. In the legislative reform project, this logic manifests through the continued economization of cultural production in the digital era and the perpetuation of a settler colonial vision of cultural citizenship that remains skewed by ethnolinguistic hierarchies.

GDP growth rate and unemployment rate are two crucial macroeconomic variables - their correlation is an important indicator for policymakers and it has been frequently analyzed. This research aims to analyze the GDP growth rate and unemployment rate in EU founders, Visegrad group, and Western Balkan countries and to determine if the negative correlation between these variables exists, to point to differences between developed and developing countries, and to indicate real convergence of developing countries towards developed ones. Data is analyzed on a quarterly level from Q1 2010 to Q4 2021 and the methodology of this paper consists of empirical data analysis, descriptive statistics, and panel analysis for each country group. Obtained results point to a negative correlation in all 3 country groups, but it is statistically significant only in EU founders countries, and the convergence of the Visegrad group and Western Balkan countries towards developed ones can be acknowledged.

The article examines the main trends in the development of the education system and its separate link – higher education systems. The authors analysed the factors affecting the direction of higher education system development. The study substantiates the main principles of the liberal system of higher education. The authors highlight such principles as the principles of democratization; impartiality and equality; mutual coordination of the goals of all levels of education to improve its quality; inclusion in education; obtaining applied knowledge, and ensuring the synergy of the worldview function of education and the acquisition of professional competences; ensuring a competent approach in the field of education; development of creative thinking; economic development regulation via the education system development; constant updating of knowledge due to informatization; permanent updating of knowledge due to informatization; individualization of education and autonomy of education; humanization of education; combination and interaction between science and practice; internationalization of education and science; integration ties of an interdisciplinary nature; general civilizational principle. Based on the study of factual material on the influence of education on economic growth, the presence of these factors' mutual influence is determined in the article. Before the beginning of the full-scale invasion of Russia on the territory of Ukraine, the growth of the GDP of Ukraine was observed, while the number of higher education institutions and the number of university students decreased simultaneously. At the same time, world experience regarding the existence of a high degree of dependence of GDP growth on the number of students studying in institutions of higher education, and in the future specialists from some areas, testify to the presence of potential in Ukraine for significant stimulation of economic growth. Key words: educational system, higher education, trend, principle.
The Multiplied Mind
Authors: Jissov Milen
Published: January 2023

This article examines a dramatic aporia in modern European intellectual history, involving what it calls “perspectival thinking”—a way of thinking in which an individual assumes and thinks from the perspectives of others. This paradox appears in the work on totalitarianism of Europe's three foremost thinkers on totalitarianism—Hannah Arendt, Arthur Koestler, and George Orwell. Examining their explorations of perspectival thinking, this article argues that, taken together, they are strikingly discordant. While Arendt exalts it, Koestler and Orwell problematize perspectival thinking, and Orwell even sees it as evil. The three thinkers thus articulate a dramatically polyvocal understanding of perspectival thinking, creating a remarkable dissonance in modern European thought.
