Authors: Tchekhoeva Taira S. , Talkhanova Fatima D.
Published: June 2024

In connection with the increasing requirements for modern teaching, in recent years there has been an active search for optimal methods that improve the pedagogical process. One of the effective ways to use digital technologies in the higher education system can be machine learning methods. They allow learning materials and assignments to be automatically modified according to the strengths and weaknesses of each student. Machine learning (ML) algorithms are a powerful tool that can be successfully used as individually differentiated teaching methods in learning foreign languages. In this regard, it is necessary to develop methodological recommendations for their use in the higher education system. This article presents the basic principles and methods of developing individualized training programs for students in the field of «Jurisprudence». Based on an analysis of scientific literature, a strategy for assessing the individual characteristics of students was developed and a personalized curriculum was drawn up. The effectiveness of using machine learning algorithms (in the experimental group) was judged by memorizing new lexical items. Analysis of the results indicates an increase in the volume of perceived information among students in the experimental group. The data from the experiment prove the effectiveness of using modern digital technologies in learning and memorizing new vocabulary.
The Impact of Government Debt Obligations on the Financial Stability of Russia and Individual European Countries
Authors: Aguzarova Larisa A. , Cheldiev Batraz O.
Published: June 2024

The article is devoted to the impact of government debt obligations on the financial stability of the country and to the analysis of methods for effectively reducing the debt burden on the budget of Russia and a number of European countries. The subject of the study is the public debt of Russia and individual European countries. Studying methods for effectively managing state debt obligations allows us to identify good practices both in Russia and in European countries. When writing this article, the analytical method, graphical analysis, comparison and generalization were used. The financial stability of the state is achieved through effective management of public debt in accordance with the needs of financing the state budget at an acceptable level of expenditure in the medium and long term and while limiting the risks involved. The reasons for the increase in the volume of government debt obligations of the budget may be declining business activity and, as a consequence, a decrease in budget revenues, an increase in budget expenditures, including in the context of overcoming the crisis, as well as the need to pay off the primary deficit. Methods have been formulated to effectively reduce the debt burden on the budget of Russia and a number of European countries by reducing risks, strict control, and introducing measures to restructure public debt. The growth of public debt is an important indicator of a country’s economy. United Nations experts predict a significant economic slowdown in developed countries, as well as an uncertain economic outlook in developing countries. Rapid interest rate increases by central banks in major developed countries, most notably in the United States of America, to suppress inflation have led to capital outflows and currency depreciation in developing countries, making it more difficult for them to access imports and increasing external debt payments.

The purpose of this study is to identify the prospects for the development of the transport and logistics complex of the Republic of North Ossetia-Alania. The article analyzes the state of the transport and logistics complex of North Ossetia-Alania, its potential and current problems. The main tasks of the development of the transport and logistics complex of the region, the tools for their solution are formulated. Particular attention was paid to the aspects of development due to the passage of the North-South International Transport Corridor (ITC) through the republic, as well as the effect of sanctions pressure with the start of a special military operation in Ukraine. For the study, the authors used system and situational approaches, modeling of socio-economic processes, and formal and logical analysis. The transport and logistics complex of the Republic of North Ossetia-Alania is characterized by a low level of equipment, the provision of automated control systems, the technical and operational condition of the main facilities included in its structure. It is gradually transforming in accordance with the current requirements of current and strategic development and has a fairly large development potential that can have a significant impact on the economy of the North Ossetia-Alania, the North Caucasus Federal District, the South of Russia and the Russian Federation as a whole. This potential is determined, first of all, by the passage through the territory of the republic of the most economical automobile route connecting Russia with Transcaucasia, the countries of Southwest Asia and the Persian Gulf; the possibilities of developing this route by extending the existing branch of the North Caucasus Railway to the South Caucasus; as well as the border position of the North Ossetia-Alania, which in the future allows it to pass and process large commodity, material and financial flows between the north and the south on the platform of the «southern hub». Strategic prospects for the development of the transport and logistics complex of the Republic of North Ossetia-Alania are determined, first of all, by the modernization of the already created transport and logistics base, in addition, by its addition to elements that meet the urgent socio-economic and political needs of the republic and the country as a whole and create a multiplier effect on the economy of North Ossetia and neighboring regions.

Authors: Savelyeva Nadezhda K. , Saidakova Victoria A.
Published: June 2024

This study is aimed at determining the specifics of the development of a mechanism to ensure socially safe development. The social sphere is under constant pressure, therefore, the assessment of socially safe development and the definition of the features of the mechanism for its provision is relevant today. The methodological basis of the study was a systematic approach to the study of the research object, comparative analysis, the method of expert assessments, the graphical method, and the analysis of cause-and-effect relationships. The study of the socially safe development of the region in the scientific literature is just becoming popular, therefore, there are few definitions of this concept. The authors propose the main aspects that can be used in interpreting the concept of «socially safe development of the region». At the same time, it can be investigated through an assessment of social security, which, in turn, is an element of national security. The literature does not define a mechanism for ensuring socially safe development of the region, therefore, the authors propose its substantive characteristics: object and subject, tools (monitoring factors to identify threats, forecasting social security, measures to prevent and neutralize identified threats), a control body whose powers include monitoring and control over the state of socio-economic development. The purpose and objectives of the proposed mechanism are defined. The proposed features of the implementation of the mechanism for ensuring socially safe development have been tested in the Kirov region. With its help, it will be possible to monitor the dynamics of social security indicators and the corresponding integral level, assess the development of social security in the short term, identify threats that require the development of measures to prevent and neutralize them.

Published: June 2024

The article is devoted to the problem of forming the ability to creatively solve professional and pedagogical tasks for future teachers (master’s degree level). The concept of “professional and pedagogical tasks” is revealed. The components of the ability to creatively solve professional and pedagogical tasks are highlighted: motivational, cognitive, activity, reflexive. The motivational approach is aimed at identifying personal readiness for creative activity in the professional field. Cognitive component allows to identify the level of available knowledge about creativity, approaches and algorithms for creative solutions of pedagogical problems. Activity–based component is the ability to apply creative approaches to solving professional and pedagogical tasks in practice. Reflexive approach - allows you to identify the ability to analyze, evaluate, and critically comprehend the activities. Criteria indicators have been defined for each component to assess the level of formation of the selected components. The organization of the pedagogical experiment assumed the gradual formation of the ability to creatively solve professional and pedagogical tasks. To solve this problem, interactive methods such as brainstorming, interactive sandbox, world cafe, etc. were used, which make it possible to actualize the creative potential of students, increase interest in this type of activity, expand the boundaries of finding a solution to the problem, go beyond its standard solution. The experimental work was attended by undergraduates studying in the field of training 44.04.01 Pedagogical education. At the ascertaining stage of the pedagogical experiment, an input diagnosis was carried out to determine the level of severity of the selected components. At the final stage, a re-diagnosis was carried out. The comparison of the obtained results allowed us to state positive changes in the selected components of creativity in solving professional and pedagogical tasks. The students mastered the algorithm of creative solution of professional and pedagogical tasks, increased independence in finding approaches to solving, choosing forms and methods, as well as determining the optimal way to resolve the current situation. When solving professional and pedagogical tasks, students more often began to offer original, non-standard solutions, but at the same time taking into account the current situation, the peculiarities of the subjects of the educational process. The formation of the ability to creatively solve professional and pedagogical tasks should become the dominant direction in the professional training of future teachers. This ability will allow future teachers to get involved in the real educational process faster and more effectively.

Published: June 2024

In conditions of increasing negative impacts of gender, migration, urban, mondialist processes on the structure and content of the ethno-cultural field of personal growth of preschool children, active penetration into social and family life of electronic media and communication, the Internet, the task of forming an appropriate ethno-cultural environment is actualized. The content of the ethno-cultural environment in the context of the transformation of modern preschool education is changing. The threat of the transition of ethnic communities into a state of “palimpsest”, leading to their departure from the historical arena, when only written monuments and oral memories remain of them, has by no means lost its relevance today. Therefore, the ethno-cultural environment, its expansion and complication becomes the dominant factor preceding the development of organizational, methodological, didactic measures to strengthen the ethno-cultural component in a preschool educational institution (hereinafter referred to as the DOE) and achieving a new quality of ethno-cultural competence of children. The theoretical, methodological, scientific and practical significance of an early solution to the problem of strengthening the ethno-cultural component in the system of preschool pedagogy is actualized in relation to small social communities, which today are experiencing serious difficulties in preserving their ethno-national identity. This negative process is most clearly manifested in the level of ownership of children by their mother (native) language, understanding of the semantic load of rites and rituals that form the basis of the traditional culture of the people. The study conducted by the author indicates a weakening of the ethno-cultural component, a decrease in the level of national consciousness among preschoolers. The author postulates the ethno-cultural environment as a “comfortable territory of childhood” and gives an interpretation of this definition. Since ethno-cultural education and education in general acts as a kind of basis for preschool education, the formation of it is most clearly manifested in the level of ownership of children by their maternal (native) language, understanding of the semantic load of rites and rituals that form the basis of the traditional culture of the people. The study conducted by the author indicates a weakening of the ethno-cultural component, a decrease in the level of national consciousness among preschoolers. The author postulates the ethno-cultural environment as a “comfortable territory of childhood” and gives an interpretation of this definition. Since ethno-cultural education and education as a whole acts as a kind of basis for preschool education, the formation of an ethno-cultural environment becomes an effective condition that contributes both to strengthening interethnic, intercultural dialogue and preventing conflicts on ethnic and religious grounds.

On the basis of the integration of legal and pedagogical sciences, the main provisions of criminal legislation related to the protection of the rights and interests of the family and children are revealed as part of a comprehensive strategy of the state in the field of preserving family values, ensuring a prosperous childhood, and education in the spirit of respect for the law. The authors consider the basic prohibitions on committing crimes against the family and minors provided for by the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation of 1996. The article provides up-to-date official statistical indicators related to the level of crime both against minors and crimes committed by minors themselves. The features and procedure for observing the rights of adolescents in bringing them to criminal responsibility, assigning them various types of criminal punishment, as well as the application of educational measures for the purpose of preventive influence on them are analyzed. The article also reflects other provisions of the criminal law concerning the consideration of the interests of children when sentencing their parents, ensuring the interests of other family members (close relatives) of persons who have committed crimes. On the basis of the analysis, it is concluded that the criminal law really guards the interests of the family and minors, providing sufficiently broad opportunities to ensure their rights. In order to prevent the commission of crimes, special attention is paid to the need for the harmonious upbringing of children, the formation of positive personal and value orientations in society, and the improvement of interpersonal relations, especially family relations.

Authors: Litvishko Olga M.
Published: June 2024

The article is devoted to the study of the verbalization specifics of professionally marked components of linguistic consciousness in popular-legal Internet discourse. On the basis of the analysis of approaches to the study of linguistic consciousness, the connection between the components of linguistic consciousness and linguistic means verbalizing its subject meanings is established. The specificity of professional linguistic consciousness, which is verbalized by professionally marked linguistic means, is revealed. The material of the study included the posts of online legal counselling sites, which serve as an example of popular-legal Internet discourse. The paper identifies the criteria that allow us to define popular-legal Internet discourse as a discourse of mixed type, which has certain features and characteristics, in particular, a specific choice of linguistic means, mixing of styles, and simplification of professional language. The author substantiates the use of linguistic means characteristic of popular-legal Internet discourse. The corpus, frequency and concordance analyses confirm the author’s hypothesis about the conditionality of a lawyer’s speech by professional language consciousness. It is established that professionally marked components of language consciousness in popular-legal Internet discourse are lexical and syntactic units that serve as a means of conveying specialized professional information, demonstrate the logic of presentation of legally significant information, despite the tendencies of simplification of the legal language. The article reveals the most frequently used linguistic means of popular legal Internet discourse, which provide storage and reproduction of lexical information and grammatical operations in speech and represent professionally marked components of linguistic consciousness in the studied type of discourse.

WORKPLACE CONSEQUENCES OF WORK-FAMILY CONFLICT FOR WOMEN
Authors: Okolie Ugo Chuks , Uwayah Lydia I.
Published: June 2024

Traditional gender roles state that women should prioritize caring for their families and maintaining their homes, while men should prioritize their work. The number of couples balancing two careers has steadily increased over the last few decades. Married women who work put in more hours taking care of their kids and taking care of the house than their working husbands. Traditional women's roles have changed over time, but they still reflect a one-way relationship between work and family. Women have a harder time juggling the demands of family and work. Women find it more difficult to give up their family responsibilities, even when they are employed. It is against this backdrop that this study examined the implications of work-family conflict for women at the workplace. This study is theoretical in nature and relied on context analysis. The study concluded that both work-family conflict and family-work conflict had positive relationships with job tension and the number of hours worked, and both types of conflict had negative relationships with organizational commitment, job satisfaction, life satisfaction, and turnover intention. The lack of sensitive, responsive, and consistent care from overworked parents or substitute providers can lead to decreased cognitive and social skills and can promote attachment insecurity in children, research is still unclear about the effects this time sacrifice may have on children. Therefore, flexibility in the workplace is necessary to reduce distress, including changes in appetite, aches and pains related to tension, and difficulty falling and staying asleep in women.

Authors: Faizah Aminatul Haq , Gunawan  , Khabibi  , Wijaya Roni Adi
Published: June 2024

The green synthesis method has been successfully carried out to CdS with tea leaf extract and calcination temperature variation for the application of photocatalytic degradation of ciprofloxacin antibiotic. Variations in calcination at temperatures of 500, 600, and 700 ℃ were carried out to determine the effect of temperature on morphology and elemental composition, crystal structure and size, functional groups, and band gap energy by SEM-EDX, XRD, FTIR, and UV-DRS Spectrophotometer. The SEM-EDX image of the synthesized CdS is smooth and spherical and there is agglomeration with an even distribution of elements. The results of XRD and FTIR characterization showed the CdS peaks. The size of the CdS crystal increased with increasing temperature, namely CdS-600 at 64 nm and CdS-700 at 81.58 nm. The band gap energy value is influenced by the calcination temperature during synthesis with the band gap energy values of CdS-600 2.3 eV and CdS-700 2.38 eV. The percentage of CdS effectiveness with variations in calcination temperature in ciprofloxacin photodegradation is CdS-500 at 32.18%, CdS-600 at 48.72%, and CdS-700 at 8.73%. The optimum condition of CdS synthesis in degrading ciprofloxacin by photocatalytic process occurs at a temperature of 600℃ with a photocatalytic irradiation time under visible light for 120 minutes, a CdS mass of 10 mg, and an initial concentration of ciprofloxacin of 25 ppm. This result demonstrates the potential of an environmentally friendly method that can be applied in wastewater treatment.

Authors: Goswami Manash P , Angel Shiny
Published: June 2024

Advertising is a potent tool for shaping societal perspectives. India has witnessed a significant transition from traditional gender stereotypes to pro-female approach in advertising in recent years. These advertisements advocating gender equality possess the potential to capture consumers by emphasising the vital role of women across diverse life domains.While television commercials are primarily meant to promote products, they increasingly portray progressive images of women and convey messages that foster liberal perceptions and acceptance of gender equality. Such representations can influence social and psychological perceptions and consumers' brand preferences. This growing affinity for gender equality, reflected in these advertisements, contributes to the broader acceptance of these principles within society.Employing the snowball sampling technique for data collection, this study was initiated with a small group of participants in select capital cities of South Indian states, who then recruited additional individuals from their social networks to take part in the survey The research investigates the evolving attitudes of Generation Z towards pro-female advertising across the capital cities of five southern Indian states: Amaravati, Bengaluru, Chennai, Hyderabad, and Thiruvananthapuram. It evaluates shifts in attitudes and purchase intentions by employing Ostrom's ABC Model of Attitude (1969) to examine emotional, behavioural and cognitive changes resulting from exposure to pro-female advertising.

Toplumsal kültürün siyasal kültürün şekillenmesindeki belirleyiciliği biliniyor. Burada, Türk toplumsal kültürünün etkilediği Türk siyasal kültürünün bir alt kültür grubu olarak tanımlanabilecek olan; subayların edindiği siyasal kültür, 27 Mayıs darbesini gerçekleştiren subaylar ekseninde ele alınmaktadır. 27 Mayıs darbesini gerçekleştiren subay grubu, sadece Milli Birlik Komitesi üyesi olanları değil, komiteye üye yapılmasa da darbeyi gerçekleştirilmesine katkı noktasındaki öncülükleri bilinenleri de kapsamaktadır. Darbe yapma yönündeki siyasal eğilimleri besleyen ve kuvveden fiile geçiren, edinilmiş bir siyasal kültür grubu olarak, 27 Mayısçılar çözümlenmeye; darbeye iştirak etmiş subaylarda gözlenen, ortak duyuş, düşünüş ve bu çerçevede beliren teşhisin özellikleri ortaya konulmaya çalışılmaktadır. Subaylar, mesleki işlevsellikleri bakımından toplumsal konumlarını nasıl algıladıkları; siyasal iktidar tarafından alınan siyasal kararlar karşısında hissettikleriyle, din ve siyaset ilişkisine atfettikleri değerler etrafında incelenmişlerdir.

Brand attachment can be considered one of the predictors of consumer commitment to a brand. Based on this key concept, the type of products can condition the consumer's relationship with the brand.  This study analyses the moderating effect that the brand’s involvement (high or low) has on the relationship between brand attachment and some of its antecedents (brand personality, perceived quality, brand awareness, and brand credibility) and effects (brand loyalty, purchase intention, and perceived risk). This causal research, with 1922 valid surveys (simple random sampling procedure), was carried out in three main cities of Ecuador (Quito, Guayaquil, and Cuenca): 1150 high-involvement and 722 low-involvement products. Hypotheses were tested using structural equation models, and multi-sample analysis. Results show that brand personality influences brand attachment and loyalty with a higher moderating effect on products with low involvement. Additionally, brand attachment influences brand loyalty with a higher moderating effect on highly involved products. As practical implications, we state that brand managers of high-involvement products must invest in digital tools that maximize the information available to the public to make decisions. Additionally, low-involvement product brand managers must invest in an identifiable image to make it easy for customers to find their brand. This research adds value because no research has been identified that addresses the study of attachment by comparing its operation in high and low-involvement contexts. It opens future research by introducing new variables in the brand personality scale in combination with that of attachment.

Published: June 2024

: Currently, customers have an ever-expanding choice of purchase options owing to globalization, which leads to increased competition. Globalization and current marketing trends have made consumers more sensitive and challenging than ever. As consumers are the most important asset any business has, organizations must understand consumers’ behavior to maintain a strategic advantage in today's increased competition and globalized marketing. In this regard, this study aimed to assess the determinants of Ethiopian consumers' purchasing behavior in locally-produced apparel by using the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) model. Cross-sectional data from 539 consumers were collected using convenience sampling and analyzed using structural equation modeling. The structural equation model results showed that all variables had a positive and significant effect on the dependent variables, which means that all hypotheses are supported. The results also indicate that consumers' attitude toward locally produced apparel was the most influential determinant of their purchasing intention towards locally produced apparel, followed by perceived behavioral control and subjective norms. Further, consumers' purchasing intention is more influential in their purchasing behavior than perceived behavioral control. The findings of this study provide insight into domestic apparel consumption, as well as the factors affecting consumer purchasing intentions and behavior in the Ethiopian context. The results from the measurement and structural models offer key inputs for policymakers, marketers, manufacturers, and retailers.

Farmers, producers, and other parties involved in the agricultural production chain of vegetable commodities place a high value on knowing consumer preferences when making decisions on developing and manufacturing agricultural food products. This study aims to investigate consumer behavior and identify information on consumer preferences for both fresh and processed (frozen) potatoes. The study was conducted in Semarang City, West Java, Indonesia using a survey method. Purposive sampling method was employed to recruit 100 respondents, aged above 21 years, residents of Semarang City, and had consumed at least fresh and/or frozen potatoes in the last month. A questionnaire using Google Forms was employed to gather data online. It was distributed via social media platforms. The data collected was analyzed by descriptive and conjoint analysis. The results showed that the most frequent consumption was once a week with regular types of fresh potatoes being consumed; the respondents' spending on potato consumption was ≤ IDR 25,000/ month, and they consumed ≤2 kg of potatoes per week. Potato consumer preferences showed that the fresh potato attributes most liked by consumers are large tuber size, smooth skin, and ≤5 lateral buds, with the number of lateral bud attributes being the most prioritized. The most preferred attributes for frozen potatoes are a straight form, priced at IDR 39,000 to 58,000, batter-coated flavor, 801-1000 gr size packaging, and branded, with the shape attribute being the most prioritized.  These findings suggest that farm producers can develop innovative potato varieties with fewer lateral buds and shapes for frozen potatoes.
