Special economic zones are an important strategic tool of territorial development. Socio-economic development of special economic zones is seen to be a key economic task. To perform this task, special environment is arranged for their development and manufacturing enterprises and the service sector. These special conditions should stimulate their economic development and ensure their sustainable economic growth. The main objective of the study is to assess the development of labor potential in the Russian regions with the special economic zones and a preferential taxation scheme. The research task is to evaluate the economic and social indicators of the special economic zones. The study looks at the labor potential indicators which affect the development and functioning of these territories. The novelty is a comparative analysis of the labor potential indicators before and after a special economic zone is established. The results of the analysis show the impact of preferential conditions on the employment rate, a decrease of the unemployment rate, and changes in the structural disproportion rate and contribute into developing recommendations for efficient managerial decisions in this area. The statistical data of the Federal State Statistics Service, as well as information resources of territorial entities served as the information base for analytical studies. The statistical data analysis revealed the behavior of individual economic and social indicators; the role of a territorial status in economic growth was determined. The results also show that special environment does not stimulate territorial development in manufacturing and service sectors. Most existing territorial entities do not demonstrate high development rates, including by labor potential indicators. The exceptions are metropolitan and large urban agglomerations characterized by high economic development rates due to a high development level in financial and banking sectors, concentration of manufacturing capacities, and a significant agglomeration effect. The identified development trends evaluate the efficiency of tax incentives, the development of special economic zones, and reveal the mechanisms to improve areas of development. The results obtained in the study contribute into a more efficient investigation of the socio-economic situation in special economic zones, adjust their development directions, can be used for preparing strategic and policy documents for the development of territorial entities, including the territories with special tax privileges and preferential conditions for work.
MODAL STRUCTURALISM AND THE PROBLEM OF INTEGRATION
Authors:   Ural Federal University named after the first President of Russia B.N. Yeltsin, Gushchin Ilya A.
Published: December 2022

Modal structuralism attempts to solve the problems of Platonism in the philosophy of mathematics. First, the paper presents the view that modal structuralism emerges out of Benacerraf’s arguments against Pla-tonism and set-theoretic reductionist realism. Putnam’s account is showed to be another source of influ-ence on modal structuralism. Second, the basic ideas of modal structuralism are reviewed, with special at-tention paid to how the translation of mathematical statements into modal sentences helps to avoid the set-theoretic grounding of such statements. However, since possible worlds are conceived as set-theoretic entities, the translation itself faces the problem of potential circular explanation. To solve the problem, Hellman suggests taking modalities as primitives, but his solution faces additional issues. Two of them are an unclear metaphysical status of the possible structures mathematicians make statements about and an obscure epistemic access mathematicians have to these structures. In order to avoid these issues, the paper suggests combining modal structuralism with modal normativism. According to the latter, modal statements are not about objects or facts but about linguistic rules. Since modal normativists interpret the possible structures as non-metaphysical entities, the problem of epistemic access to such structures trans-forms into the problem of the agent’s knowledge of the semantic rules of mathematical language. It is al-so pointed out that modal normativism might solve another set of structuralist problems, not specifically concerned with modalities, e.g., the problem of objects’ dependence on the structures in which they are embedded.
THE IDEA OF «ARCHAEOLOGY OF PERCEPTION» IN THE PROCESS OF TRUST CREATION BETWEEN PATIENT AND PHYSICIAN
Authors:   Kursk State University, Filippovich Maria S. ,   Kursk State Medical University
Published: December 2022

An interaction between a patient and a physician is refracted through trust. Ancient Greek philosophers considered self-care through metaphorical objects: dreams and their interpretation, revision, mirror, etc. In the Age of Enlightenment trust becomes a certain kind of economic characteristic that measures an attitude to a person and shapes an idea of him. In the moral context, the phenomenon of trust is presented through sympathy — «social lubrication» (A. Smith), which promotes development of the feeling of brotherhood and brings semantic changes to the definition of personal space. In philosophy of 20th centu-ry, in works of P. Sztompka, A. Giddens, M. Foucault, A. Seligman, trust receives a different interpreta-tion: the philosophers define it through ethical behavior, try to differentiate trust from synonyms such as confidence, belief. The social function of trust comes to the medical field of relationships between a pa-tient and a physician. Social interaction between them includes verbal and nonverbal communication (the article attempts to explain trust through the latter). In the process, the patient expects certain words to be said by the physician and/or takes a certain line of behavior, choosing either to trust or not to trust the doctor. The physician’s behavior determines the patient’s attitude to him. The patient watches the actions of the physician, giving him a certain inner estimate. In the process of communication, their relationship transfers from the paternalistic to the collegial model (according to R. Witch’s conception). Through medical examination (professional or superficial) the physician constructs a picture of the disease and, as a result, either satisfies or not satisfies the patient’s expectations. Through juxtaposition of the external and the inner there are manifested components of the patient’s self-care: social practices (e.g. observation and/or detection of symptoms by the physician) in individual human existence (E.B. Bolotnikova).
THE DYNAMICS OF PHILOSOPHICAL RATIONALITY AND SOCIAL-HISTORICAL PRACTICE
Authors:   Perm State University, Loskutov Yuri V.
Published: December 2022

Philosophy in its history in many ways anticipates classical, nonclassical, and postnonclassical types of scientific rationality. : Behind the nonclassical and classical types it is possible to see something more than variants of science. These types correspond to certain styles of human thinking in general and certain worldview positions in particular. The analysis of the main issue of worldview reveals the evolution of the human’s attitude to the world, which is examined in the paper using the concepts of V.S. Stepin, G.S. Batishchev, M.M. Prokhorov, V.V. Kizima, M.G. Zelentsova, and V.A. Kutyrev as examples. This evolution is expressed in the dynamics of philosophical thought. In its historical development, the world philosophy forms the main spiral line of development, manifesting itself in the forms of classical, nonclassical, and postnonclassical philosophical thinking. The first of them implies a monologue of the world, the second one — a monologue of the human, and the third one — a dialogue between them. Since this dialogue takes place with the leading role of the human, postnonclassical philosophy is anthropocen-tric. It has an integrative character since it includes classical and nonclassical rationality as its subordinate moments. The condition for success of practical activity is the application of a particular historical type of rationality to the relevant type of systems: classical rationality — to simple systems, nonclassical rational-ity — to complex self-regulating systems, postnonclassical rationality — to complex self-developing sys-tems. Postnonclassical thinking assumes a deeply personal and practically oriented position of the cogniz-er. Using the problem of the interformational transition from capitalism to postcapitalism as an example, the paper examines the peculiarities of practical application of postnonclassical thinking to society as a complex, self-developing system. Classical-type thinking, characteristic of Leninism, has conditioned the current failure of the interformational transition. The postnonclassical understanding of the latter consists not in following an externally imposed social model, but in the free self-activity of social subjects. Keywords: postnonclassical rationality, anthropocentrism, dialogue, practice.
A CAUSAL FOOTPRINT IN INDIVIDUAL-INTELLECTUAL INTEGRATIONS. PART 1. INTEGRATIONS AND CAUSALITY

Published: December 2022

Today, there is a huge variety of theories, empirical models that explain different aspects of the human psyche. All this diversity leads to a «faceted» psychology (D.V. Ushakov). Is it possible to move from this state of empirical multidimensionality to a holistic understanding of the person? Ya.A. Ponomarev proposed two ways to solve this problem: the «top-down» synthesis and the «bottom-up» synthesis. The former involves moving from theory to empirical verification, the latter — from empirical models to the-oretical generalizations. A third way is also possible: integration «from above» and «from below» jointly, i.e. theoretically and empirically from a unified standpoint. This ensures the complementarity of theory and empiricism. This paper aims to study the possibility of cross-empirical individual-intellectual integra-tions on a cross-theoretical basis, which consists of V.S. Merlin’s theory of integral individuality, D.V. Ushakov’s structural-dynamic theory of intelligence, and J. Guilford’s theory of divergent (creative) thinking. The methodological bases of the study are the general scientific principle of consistency; the polysystemic approach, which involves both distinguishing several systems and combining them into a larger metasystem; the integrative approach in psychology. The main research methods were theoretical analysis, synthesis, and generalization. Three lines of integration have been outlined: a theoretical view and an empirical view implemented jointly, cross-theoretical, and cross-empirical approaches. Based on the study of the near causes and the causal process, the concept of causal chains has been developed. It al-lows one to study the changes and dynamics of individual-intellectual integrations. Homogeneous and heterogeneous causal chains have been identified. This paper is the first to suggest considering individu-al-intellectual integrations from the perspective of the causal chain. The results of the theoretical analysis can be used for empirical detection of individual-intellectual integrations as major components of educa-tional capital.
THE ROLE OF GENDER, APPEARANCE AND SIMILARITY IN THE PERCEPTUAL CONTRAST EFFECT
Authors:   Perm State University, Baleva Milena V. , Polyanina Olga I. ,   Perm State University
Published: December 2022

The study deals with the description of the mediating role of control variables in the perception of the Other under conditions of negative pre-stimulus distraction. As a result of such distraction, a perceptual contrast effect arises. It manifests itself as significant positive changes in the attitude toward the target ob-ject (TO). In our study, this effect is analyzed for different levels of assessments given by the subject to the appearance of the TO and for different degrees of similarity between the former and the latter. The gender-related peculiarities in the manifestation of this effect are also investigated. The study involved 541 students, including 417 females (77 %) and 124 males (23 %) from 17 to 35 years (M = 20.11 ± 1.33). The factors of the object’s attractiveness and his/her similarity to the subject were found to mediate the contrast effects in the perception of an ambivalent (but not valent) personality. The study revealed the features of the mediating role of these factors in assessing the TO by three disposition-al traits — consciousness, extraversion, and neuroticism. It was also found that men demonstrate stable attitude toward an ambivalent woman, regardless of the negative pre-stimulus impact, while women, when perceiving an ambivalent woman, show a high susceptibility to negative pre-stimulus distraction. The results obtained clarify and limit the range of negative pre-stimulus effects in the process of social perception, which makes it possible to increase the accuracy in prediction of perceptual effects while tak-ing into account the initial attitudes of the subject.

The authors discuss the emergence of destructive socio-political practices in the youth communities of the Krasnodar Region, Russia, and make recommendations to reduce their negative impact at the regional level in terms of the youth policy. The study lays in conceptual frames of life strategies of youth (developed by Yu. A. Zub and V. I. Chuprov), of the humanistic concept of youth (I. M. Ilinsky), and the ladder of participation of the youth (R. Hart). The paper represents the comprehensive study conducted in two stages resulting in revelation and characterization of youth communities. The groups are characterized according to their life strategies of self-determination typical for different semantic cultures coexisting in the youth environment of Russia. In the communities of young people revealed in the study, the two major types of socio-political behavior and attitudes are emphasized: openly and directly destructive forms of public behavior, and indirectly destructive behavior limiting the potential of development and application of youth policies. Tackling imitating forms of public conduct and increasing the level of actual participation of young people in the implementation of the youth policies together with older generations for the joint solutions will contribute to minimizing risks of destructive practices and the development of the constructive potential of the youth.

In 2020, the whole world faces the COVID-19 pandemic and its consequences. Ordinary people were particularly vulnerable. State-supported volunteer movements and independent civic associations came to their aid. Clearly, volunteers have played an enormous role in supporting citizens in the era of the coronavirus, but the question arises: how did they achieve their effectiveness and what influenced this? Scientific research defines effectiveness in different ways. The authors of this article focus on the structure of volunteer movements, financial performance and achievement of their goals. Based on normative documents and interviews, the activities of the Perm organisation SOSED and the regional chapter of #Wearetogether are studied. The authors conclude that the organisations have a different structure, which affects their activities, results and effectiveness.
La littérature slovaque en classe de langue ou comment enseigner la littérature d’un pays qui n’existe pas
Authors: ŠPERKOVÁ Paulína
Published: December 2022

La littérature est devenue un vrai outil dans l’enseignement des langues mais ses enseignants peuvent parfois se heurter à des problèmes inattendus. Dans le cas du slovaque, nous pouvons ainsi nous interroger sur la manière d’enseigner, sur plusieurs siècles, la littérature d’un pays qui existe uniquement depuis 1993 et d’une langue qui a été codifiée seulement au milieu du XIXe siècle et qui n’est reconnue comme langue officielle que depuis le début du XXe siècle ? Dans la présente contribution, je propose donc d’analyser les difficultés d’enseigner la littérature d’un pays et d’une langue jeunes, mais aussi d’observer quelle réalité extra-littéraire et quelle culture peuvent se refléter à travers les textes. Je chercherai également à savoir si, et dans quelles conditions, une telle littérature peut rejoindre le débat général sur la didactique des langues.
Rôle de la littérature dans l’apprentissage de l’ourdou comme langue étrangère en France
Authors: HAQUE Shahzaman
Published: December 2022

Cette étude se propose d’examiner à la lumière de la didactique le rôle de la littérature, dans l’apprentissage de l’ourdou comme langue étrangère proposée dans un programme universitaire en France. L’histoire didactique de l’ourdou montre qu’il n’existait, en dehors des textes littéraires, aucun autre support pédagogique pour l’apprentissage de la langue. Les documents littéraires abordés dans le cours d’ourdou suscitent-ils l’intérêt des apprenants allophones et non-allophones poursuivant des études universitaires en France ? Les cours intitulés « Initiation à la littérature ourdoue moderne », « Romans, nouvelles et poésies en ourdou », « Histoire de la littérature classique » et « Paroles et musiques en ourdou » sont offerts dans le cadre du programme de Licence en ourdou et leur rôle sera analysé. Si le recours à des textes littéraires pose un certain nombre de questionnements quant à l’enseignement-apprentissage de la langue, le profil de l’étudiant joue également un rôle important pour que ce support pédagogique puisse aider à la réussite de l’apprentissage de la langue.
Les modalités dans les textes argumentatifs d'étudiants turcophones de FLE en Turquie
Authors: LE LIÈVRE Françoise , AKSEL Gulseren
Published: December 2022

La maîtrise du texte argumentatif, incontournable dans les écrits universitaires, est un exercice cognitif particulièrement exigeant en langue étrangère. Son acquisition et sa maîtrise, inévitable pour des étudiants se préparant à une poursuite d'études en France, requièrent une connaissance des règles linguistiques et discursives, mais également des conventions rhétoriques de la langue. Notre chapitre s’intéressera à un cours intitulé « Analyse textuelle » dispensé à des étudiants turcophones de FLE (niveau B2) en Turquie. Dans ce cours les étudiants sont familiarisés à différents courants de la littérature française et invités à produire des écrits académiques dont le commentaire composé. Nous partirons de l'hypothèse que les turcophones apprenants du FLE conservent dans leurs textes, des références aux modalités, des traces de l’organisation discursive de leur L1. Après avoir interrogé la sélection et le traitement des textes retenus dans le cadre de l'enseignement dont il est question, nous montrerons comment le recours à un modèle d'analyse issu de la rhétorique contrastive par l'enseignante peut s’avérer didactiquement extrêmement formateur quant à leur capacité des étudiants à produire des textes tels qu’attendus.
Des langues étrangères dans la littérature
Authors: PORQUIER Rémy
Published: December 2022

Dans l’enseignement/apprentissage des langues étrangères, le statut de la littérature soulève diverses interrogations. L’une, particulièrement dans le cas de langues éloignées, porte sur le niveau à partir duquel on peut aborder, dans la langue d’origine, des textes d’auteurs, et lesquels, et comment. Une autre porte sur l’intérêt d’aborder, dans un premier temps, la littérature étrangère à travers des traductions (dans la langue première des apprenants). Une autre encore, non exclusive des précédentes, touche à l’utilisation croisée (en version originale et/ou traduite) de textes de l’une et l’autre langue, de genre et/ou de thématiques commun.e.s. Dans cette deuxième perspective, on présentera des textes croisés ayant pour thème des récits, romancés ou non, d’apprentissage de langue ou d’interactions interlinguistiques, comme par exemple chez Amélie Nothomb et Akira Mizubayashi. Ces exemples illustrent et interrogent par ailleurs les problèmes et les options de traduction de tels textes, à composantes linguistique et culturelle.
Le cas de l’arabe

Published: December 2022

La langue arabe est le vecteur du texte fondateur de l’une des religions les plus importantes en nombre et les plus vivantes. Associée depuis 20 ans à une actualité politique sanglante, cette religion est souvent perçue en Occident comme synonyme de violence et d’obscurantisme religieux. Par contagion, la langue arabe porte cet imaginaire d’ignorance et de terreur. Dissociée de sa nature de vecteur de civilisation, elle n’est, auprès du grand public, que la langue d’une religion qui alimente l’information internationale à grands coups d’actes terroristes collectifs ou isolés.
Proposer l’arabe à l’étude en le liant étroitement à la riche et féconde littérature qu’il a produite depuis 15 siècles est, au-delà du moyen d’acquérir la langue, une manière de lui restituer son intégrité. Car alors, elle n’est plus réduite à deux aspects : l’aspect religieux en tant que langue liturgique et l’aspect communicatif en tant que langue présente dans les médias et les institutions internationales, c’est-à-dire dans tous les cas, une langue spécialisée et partielle. La prise en compte de la littérature lui rend son statut d’instrument humain de perception, d’appréhension et d’expression, de soi, de l’autre et du monde, dans toutes ses dimensions, soit un statut de langue à part entière.

In this paper, the study of the effect of diamond nanoparticles on the structure and mechanical properties of the Mg-Ca-Zn magnesium alloy. The influence of diamond nanoparticles concentration amount of 0.1 wt. % in the structure of alloy Mg-Ca-Zn, the ultimate tensile strength increases from 294 up to 332 MPa, the elongation value increases from 22 % up to 27 % and the yield strength increases from 66 up to 75 MPa in the tested samples. Nanoparticles in magnesium alloy do not change the hardness of the alloy. The introduction of diamond nanoparticles into the magnesium alloy increased the Zn concentration from 4 % to 4.7 % and the Ca concentration from 1 % to 1.3 %. It is found that the introduction of the nanodiamond particles into a magnesium melt contributes to a decrease in the average grain size from ~ 100 to 64 pm in the obtained castings and, as a result, to an increase in the mechanical properties.

Assessing the migrant mortality advantage among foreign-born and interprovincial migrants in Manitoba, Canada
Authors: Debbarman Shantanu , Prior Heather , Walld Randy , Urquia Marcelo L.
Published: December 2022

Objectives

Studies on mortality differentials between international immigrants and non-immigrants produced mixed results. The mortality of interprovincial migrants has been less studied. Our objectives were to compare mortality risk between international immigrants, interprovincial migrants, and long-term residents of the province of Manitoba, Canada, and identify factors associated with mortality among migrants.

Methods

We conducted a retrospective matched-cohort study to examine all-cause and premature mortality of 355,194 international immigrants, interprovincial migrants, and long-term Manitoba residents (118,398 in each group) between January 1985 and March 2019 using linked administrative databases. Poisson regression was used to estimate adjusted incidence rate ratios (aIRR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI).

Results

The all-cause mortality risk of international immigrants (2.3 per 1000 person-years) and interprovincial migrants (4.4 per 1000) was lower than that of long-term Manitobans (5.6 per 1000) (aIRR: 0.43; 95% CI: 0.42, 0.45 and aIRR: 0.81; 95% CI: 0.80, 0.84, respectively). Compared with interprovincial migrants, international immigrants showed lower death risk (aIRR: 0.50; 95% CI: 0.47, 0.52). Similar trends were observed for premature mortality. Among international immigrants, higher mortality risk was observed for refugees, those from North America and Oceania, and those of low educational attainment. Among internal migrants, those from Eastern Canada had lower mortality risk than those migrating from Ontario and Western Canada.

Conclusion

Migrants had a mortality advantage over non-migrants, being stronger for international immigrants than for interprovincial migrants. Among the two migrant groups, there was heterogeneity in the mortality risk according to migrants’ characteristics.
Effect of Implicit Written Corrective Feedback on the Writing Skills of ESL Learners
Authors: Subon Frankie , Ali Nurul Amira
Published: December 2022

Background. Providing learners with written corrective feedback (WCF) on their writing is crucial to the ESL learning process.Purpose. This research is aimed at examining the effects of indicating errors as implicit WCF on the writing skills of ESL learners, as well as identifying learners’ perceptions towards its use in their essay writing.Methods. This is a mixed methods research involving the gathering of data both quantitatively and qualitatively. By means of a purpose sampling method, 50 ESL learners from a private university in Selangor, Malaysia were selected for this study. They underwent a two-week training period during which they were taught to self-correct their essays based on errors indicated as implicit WCF by their lecturer. This also included a pre-test and a post-test administered in between. Finally, 10 respondents were interviewed to gain their perceptions on the use of this technique as implicit WCF in their writing.Results. The results showed that the students achieved a slightly significant improvement in their essay writing skills. They also had a positive perception of the use of the lecturer’s indication of errors as implicit WCF in their essay writing.Conclusion and Implications: In conclusion, error indication as implicit WCF is effective for enhancing writing skills, and the ESL learners perceived it positively. This present study contributes fundamental pedagogical implications and recommendations for future research. ESL instructors are encouraged to adopt and apply this technique in their composition writing lessons.
Accuracy Gains from Unfocused Feedback: Dynamic Written Corrective Feedback as Meaningful Pedagogy
Authors: Kurzer Kendon
Published: December 2022

Background. A primary question among L2 writing instructors is how to best deliver written corrective feedback (WCF) to support student learning. One promising WCF method is Dynamic Written Corrective Feedback, in which instructors provide unfocused/comprehensive feedback using a coding system coupled with regular rounds of editing on short, in-class student-written paragraphs.

Purpose. In this study, I explored the impact on student accuracy of unfocused DWCF on brief student-produced texts in intermediate and advanced developmental ESL writing classes. This study was motivated by the desire to evaluate this pedagogical intervention and determine if it should continue to be implemented in our developmental writing program.

Methods. Utilizing a quasi-experimental research design using t-test analyses, I coded, tallied, and contrasted the errors in term-final paragraphs of 130 students who participated in classes that used DWCF with 79 students in control sections that did not include DWCF.

Results. I found statistically significant improvements in the treatment sections at both levels for nearly all error types (including but not limited to verb form/tense, sentence structure, work order, work choice, determiner, noun form, and punctuation errors; the only error type that did not return significance differences was prepositions at the intermediate level). These results suggest that unfocused written corrective feedback may be effectively used in multilingual writing classrooms, at least given certain parameters to help ensure that feedback is manageable and specific, per the DWCF process.

Conclusion. This study complicates the so-called best practices stemming from WCF research in which many researchers have advocated for WCF that addresses only a small number of error types. Rather, providing that feedback practices are kept manageable and accessible for the students, multilingual students may effectively process and apply unfocused feedback to their own writing.
The Effect of Coded Focused and Unfocused Corrective Feedback on ESL Student Writing Accuracy
Authors: Deng Chunrao , Wang Xiang , Lin Shuyang , Xuan Wenhui , Xie Qin
Published: December 2022

This study employed a mixed-method approach including a classroom experiment and 24 in-depth interviews, to investigate the effects of two feedback techniques (coded focused and unfocused written corrective feedback) on L2 learners in a self-financed tertiary institute in Hong Kong. Three intact classes of 47 students served as the experiment and control groups; the control group only received feedback on content and organization, whereas the two experiment groups also received focused and unfocused linguistic feedback respectively. The feedback intervention was conducted over an eight-week intensive summer course, focusing on three grammar errors (articles, singular/plural nouns, and verb forms). Altogether students wrote six pieces, among which four were analysed for the present research. The study found that students who received focused WCF significantly outperformed the other two groups, though the effects vary across error types. Meanwhile, no significant differences are found between the unfocused and control group. In-depth interviews explored how individual learners’ metalinguistic understanding and engagement affect the usefulness of WCF. The results reveal that learners who received focused feedback developed a deeper understanding of the linguistic nature of specific error types. Learners’ English proficiency and engagement strategies also played a role. Implications for pedagogical practice are discussed.
Writing Feedback from a Research Perspective
Authors: Raitskaya Lilia , Tikhonova Elena
Published: December 2022

Introduction. Being an essential part of teaching and learning, feedback in close connection with evaluation is the focus of many researchers. Their interest lies mainly in automated systems, learners’ and teachers’ perceptions of writing feedback and feedback on feedback, new forms of feedback and their efficacy for motivation and writing performance. The review aims to identify the prevailing directions of research in the field.

Methods. The review is based on 194 documents extracted from the Scopus database. The ultimate results of the search for “writing feedback” were limited to a field filter (social sciences, arts & humanities), a language filter (English), a document type (article, review, book chapter, conference paper) as well to manual screening in accordance with the inclusion criteria and relevance to the theme.

Results and Discussion. Seven directions of research were identified: automated and non-automated evaluation; feedback on writing: general issues; automated feedback; peer review and teacher feedback on writing; perceptions and emotions relating to writing feedback; feedback on scholarly writing; evaluation and improvement in Chinese calligraphy. The reviewed documents proved the prominence of the topic and greater interest in new computer-mediated forms of feedback on writing.

Conclusion. The results of the review may serve as a guidance for researchers at large and potential JLE authors focused on teaching and learning writing. The limitations of the review are linked to the scope and methods applied.

Impact of Inflation on Consumption Pattern of Households
Authors: Saha Amit
Published: December 2022

Inflation is a common phenomenon in both developed and developing countries. In the past few years there has been quite a banter regarding inflation. While some argue that inflation is a sign of a healthy economy, others proclaim the negativity of inflation on the economy and its growth. It is evident that a rise in the rate of inflation gradually corrodes the purchasing power of people, especially those having lesser means. Inflation has a severe impact on households as the prices of necessities have surged beyond their purchasing power pushing them further below in their living standard. This plunges their indebtedness to a greater extent and they have to rely on borrowings to sustain themselves. The present study focuses on the inflation trend of essential goods and services in the country over a period of ten years and the impact of it on the consumption pattern of middle-income households.

Is Fiscal Policy in Turkey Pro or Counter-Cyclical? Evidence from the ARDL Analysis
Authors: SERİN Şeref Can , ÜNLÜKAPLAN İlter
Published: December 2022

An essential part of the ongoing normative debate on how to design the cyclical movements of fiscal policy practices argues that counter-cyclical fiscal policies based on the Keynesian view should be preferred to pro-cyclical practices because of their stabilizing effects. In this context, the empirical analysis of the cyclical behavior of fiscal policy is an area that is up to date, first introduced by Gavin and Perotti (1997). The common opinion of empirical studies is that counter-cyclical practices are applied in developed economies; pro-cycle practices are more common in developing and underdeveloped economies. This study examines the cyclical movements of fiscal policy practices in Turkiye from 1990-2020 with the ARDL method. As a result of the study, findings were obtained that Turkiye's fiscal policy practices have a counter-cyclical structure but lose its fiscal space for a maneuver. The robustness tests also support the findings.
External Partnering and Innovation Objectives: The Moderating Effect of Industry
Authors: OZTURK Ebru
Published: December 2022

This study examines the effect of external partnering on innovation performance of emerging economy firms by considering different conditional factors. Firstly, the effect of innovative intent is examined to understand how the link between external partnering and innovation performance evolves. Secondly, the interaction effect between external partnering and innovative intention is further examined depending on the industry affiliation. This research argues that firms with less innovative intention leverage more from external partnering than firms with more innovative intention. Moreover, this research argues that the link between external partnering and innovative intent becomes positive for manufacturing firms and negative for service firms. Based on a dataset of 2370 firms from different industries in Turkey, this research finds support for the hypotheses.
Protocol 2: Culturing Spizellomyces punctatus (Sp) prior to transformation day v1
Authors: M Prostak Sarah
Published: December 2022

In order to increase transformation efficiency, a more synchronous culture of Sp is needed. This process involves subculturing active Sp plates in the days leading up to transformation day. At least two generations of Sp should be grown on antibiotic free K1 medium to ensure no trace antibiotics are present in the culture for transformation day. Proper sterile technique should be followed at all times when maintaining cultures of Sp; use either a laminar flow hood or work in the sterile area around an open flame.
Protocol 6: Selecting for Spizellomyces punctatus transformants v1
Authors: M Prostak Sarah
Published: December 2022

Once the co-culture IM plates have grown for four days, it is time to select Sp transformants. Selecting these transformants requires harvesting the cells from the co-culture plates, dislodging and removing any remaining Agro from the culture, and plating Sp onto K1 selection media. In our laboratory, we use 300 mg/L Hygromycin B (Gibco #10687010) as our selection marker. Additionally, we add 50 mg/L Carbenicillin (Carb) and 50 mg/l Tetracycline (Tet) to our K1 plates to kill Agrobacterium. All steps here, with the exception of centrifugation steps, must be carried out in a sterile environment, ideally in the sterile area around an open flame.
Protocol 5: Agrobacterium-mediated transformation of Spizellomyces punctatus (Sp) v1
Authors: M Prostak Sarah
Published: December 2022

Once you have completed protocols 1-4, you are ready for transformation. This protocol is lengthy, requires accurate timing, and takes a minimum of 4 days to see results. Zoospores will need to be harvested from the plates prepared in Protocol 2; the process of harvesting is described below. Once Agro is at the appropriate OD, transformation is carried out by co-culturing Agro and Sp on induction media (“IM”) to induce the expression of Agro’s virulence genes and transformation of Sp cells. Co-culturing must be done on IM plates with premade depressions in the agar (see Protocol 4: Creating depressions in induction media plates).

Published: December 2022

Introduction: information and communication technology (ICT) has multiplied its availability and use, resulting in enormous usage, especially among school-age children, who use it for an average of 7.5 hours per day. The amount of time adolescents spend in front of electronic screens has increased significantly between the ages of 10 and 14, but there are significant gender changes. For boys, this increase is 41.6 minutes per day, while for girls it is 22.7 minutes per day.

Methods: The study is designed as an epidemiological, cross-sectional, descriptive-analytic, comparative study. The study will be conducted in the form of an online questionnaire on the Microsoft Forums platform during the period 12/15/2021 to 12/30/2021. Respondents were able to access the request for consent using a link and a QR code, which was previously signed by a parent/guardian giving consent for children to participate in this study.

Results: The results of this study show that school-aged children generally use cell phones with a touch screen between 2 and 3 hours daily during the work week (39.2%) and TV (39.5%). Pain caused by ICT use in the past 12 months occurred mainly in the neck/shoulder area (42.4%), while pain in the previous month occurred mainly in the lower extremities (29.1%).

Conclusion: Increased use of ICT devices was associated with higher levels of musculoskeletal symptoms. The higher pain burden in various body parts is of concern, and further research on the effects of ICT device use in adolescents is needed and warranted.

Authors: Piquero Álvaro
Published: December 2022

Tras haber abordado en estudios anteriores el análisis de las variantes más representativas del romance de La bastarda y el segador en la tradición panhispánica, este artículo pretende comparar exhaustivamente las diferencias y similitudes existentes entre tradición oral portuguesa, muy rica en este tema romancístico, y la española. Para ello, al corpus de casi un centenar de versiones recopilado previamente, en el que solo constaban doce recitaciones lusas, se han añadido en esta ocasión todas las fichas del romance disponibles en la base de datos romanceiro.pt, que ascienden a un total de setenta y ocho. En definitiva, el amplio análisis propuesto, que se centrará específicamente en cada uno de los segmentos discursivos en los que se puede subdividir el romance, mostrará el estrecho diálogo existente entre estas dos tradiciones romancísticas y cómo, a pesar de ello, cada una de ellas ofrece variantes del texto independientes y originales.
Discrete Differential Operators Immediately Applicable to Numerical Models of Solid Mechanics

Published: December 2022

The conventional gradient and related differential operators have been uniquely extended to a cluster of nodal points. Based on general algebraic grounds, such extensions are applicable to any discrete pattern while avoiding artificial shape functions or tessellations. Thus, various constitutive equations can be represented in a discrete form that enables the numerical modeling immediately in terms of nodal variables. Accuracy of this approach should ameliorate by the reduction of nodal spacing with the increasing computational power.
