How to Solve the Gap between Science and Policy in the Coastal Management of Mediterranean Countries
Authors: Cantasano Nicola , Greco Silvestro
Published: March 2023

The gap between Science and Policy is one of the main problems affecting the implementation of a sound coastal zone management in Mediterranean countries. Really, littoral and marine ecosystems supply a lot of environmental services, that are actually exposed to many natural and anthropic risks, influencing the ecological status of coastal areas. So, in the Mediterranean basin, it has been introduced on 2002 a participatory process named Integrated Coastal Zone Management (ICZM) to address scientific and political efforts towards a right marine policy. To highlight the lacking connection between the scientific approach to coastal management and the current inertia of policy actors, it has been presented a typical case study tested in a marine protected area located on the western seaside of the Calabria region (Southern Italy). The innovative framework proposed by this paper highlights the fundamental role of widespread public knowledge to bridge the gaps, still existing, between Science and Policy. By this way, it is suggested a new conceptual pattern able to connect the two cornerstones of ICZM program through mutual interactions mediated by knowledge processes. So, it is hoped for an adaptive co-management of coastal zones based on a close collaboration between scientists, policy makers, stakeholders and public opinion into a socio-ecological “governance” of coastal regions. Finally, it is necessary to involve all private and public subjects to develop a continuous dialogue for an effective ICZM implementation in Mediterranean countries.

Background: Modern lifestyle involves everyday use of cosmetic products containing various sources of Endocrine Disruptors (EDs), parabens being the most common ones. Growing cancer burden globally, namely the increased breast cancer incidence, suggests a lifestyle cause. Could the continuous and prolonged exposure to parabens be accountable for the higher breast cancer risk on a global scale? Methods: A Questionnaire was filled out on the subjects' anamnestic data, anthropometric measurements, sociodemographic characteristics, the presence of risk factors for the development of breast cancer, and the beginning and frequency of use of deodorants, body lotions and antiperspirants. Total of seventy-two (n = 72) patients were enrolled in the study. All obtained data was compared with risk factors for the development of breast cancer. Results: Women with breast cancer have longer been exposed to cosmetic products usage (an average of 36 years in total) in comparison to healthy women (an average of 24 years in total). Healthy women tend to start using cosmetic products earlier, at the average age of 16, and tend to use them more often as part of their everyday routine. In contrast, women with breast cancer start later on, at the average age of 19. Conclusion: Our study supports the fact that the most important risk factor for breast cancer is age, but also suggests that long term exposure to parabens could play a crucial role in breast cancer manifestation, even more so at an earlier age. Shift to healthier alternatives to parabens in cosmetic products would contribute to both disease prevention as well as greener environment.
NECHUY-LEVYTSKY & V. PIDMOHYLNY (KYIV IN ARTISTIC TEXTS)
Authors: MIALKOVSKA Liudmyla
Published: March 2023

In terms of integrative stylistics the article compares the artistic texts of I. Nechuy-Levytsky and V. Pidmohylny which present linguistic pictures of the city of Kyiv. It was found that in the studied works the linguistic image of Kyiv is represented by proper names – toponyms, names of sacred and architectural structures, spatial objects, tokens with colorful semantics, as well as comparative-metaphorical structures based on individual author’s associations. The unfolding of the linguistic image of Kyiv is traced through the metonymic use of the conceptual token ‘city’ where the seme ‘large number of people’ is actualized, and through verbal images of city residents, what both writers resort to, drawing pictures of large numbers of people.
The influence of I. Nechuy-Levytsky’s linguistic creation on V. Pidmohylny’s linguistic thinking is emphasized and this is evidenced by the textual echoes of the novel «City» with the linguistic image of the city in I. Nechuy-Levytsky’s works.
Quotes-allusions, found in the text of V. Pidmohylny, make reference to the precedent text, to the proto-documentary. Verbal reproduction of the fragment of proto-documentary in allusive images is a few scattered in the text supporting lexemes, which serve as impetus for recognizing semantic similarities. We can speak about the continuity of statements, which testify to the deep connections of the language with the intellectual achievements of the nation, including the treasures of the Ukrainian literary language.
The descriptions of Kyiv recorded in the works of I. Nechuy-Levytsky and V. Pidmohylny are filled with the linguistic realities of the time and sensual impulses of writers who expanded the stylistic possibilities of the Ukrainian literary language and affirmed its aesthetic values through original linguistic thinking and the practice of creating verbal associative images.
LEXICO-SEMANTIC PARADIGM OF THE CONCEPT OF SILENCE IN THE LESIA UKRAINKA’S LANGUAGE
Authors: KOTS Tetiana
Published: March 2023

The article uses the concept of silence as one of the fundamental principles of human existence, which covers the characteristics of being, time, movement, analyzes the development of contextual lexical-semantic and stylistic nuances of the word in the language of Lesia Ukrainka.
Taking into account the common lexicographical interpretations of the token, the expansion of its semantic potential in poetic texts is traced, the formation of positive emotional and negative emotional meaning paradigms is shown. The positive emotional scale combines seven “calm”, “hope”, and the negative scale – seven “anxiety”, “pain”, “sadness”, “civil inaction”. Positive-emotional paradigm is created mainly by images of nature, and negative-value – philosophical and psychological understanding of the mental state of man at the turn of the XIX – early XX centuries. in the projection on the self-expression of Ukrainian national identity. Emphasis is placed on lexical and stylistic individual-author features in the depiction of the natural and sensual state of silence.
The multifunctionality of language means of the concept of silence correlates with the mental state of a person, his positive and negative emotions, existential attitude.
The development of lexical and semantic nuances of the noun silence in Lesіa Ukrainka’s language creation testifies to the formation of positive-emotional and negative-emotional meaning paradigms of ontological phenomena of the existence of Ukrainian society. The positive emotional scale combines seven “calm”, “hope”, and the negative scale – seven “anxiety”, “pain”, “sadness”, “civil inaction”. Positive-emotional paradigm is created mainly by images of nature, and negative-value – philosophical and psychological understanding of the mental state of man at the turn of the XIX – early XX centuries. in the projection on the self-expression of Ukrainian national identity.
CONSTANTS OF ACADEMICIAN V.M. RUSANIVSKYI’S SCIENTIFIC STYLE
Authors: YERMOLENKO Svitlana
Published: March 2023

Rusanivskyi’s scientific works on grammar, lexicology, lexicography, spelling, history of Ukrainian literary language, sociolinguistics, as well as philosophy of language, theoretical and practical issues of Slavic studies represent the level of development of Ukrainian linguistics of the second half of XX – early XXI century.
The overarching idea of the author’s research is the search for new aspects of language cognition due to the ontological and epistemological nature of this object. The first studies are devoted to the history of the Ukrainian language, namely the study of grammatical categories of type and time in the Ukrainian language of the XVI – XVII centuries.
In the landmark work “Structure of the Ukrainian verb” on a large factual material, the researcher traced the structural changes (variance of the morpheme composition) of verbs in different time sections of the Ukrainian language.
The most expressive among the constants of the linguist’s scientific style is attention and constant reference to lexical semantics, to the meaning of a word in a dictionary and in specific texts. The author traces and theoretically substantiates the tendencies of movement in the immanent semantic structure of the vocabulary of each natural language. It is this tendency that explains V.M. Rusanivskyi’s constant appeal to the structural-semantic analysis of T. Shevchenko’s dictionary of language, to the disclosure of the semantic depth of the word in his texts.
Without claiming a comprehensive analysis of the constants of Rusanivskyi’s scientific style, we emphasize the heuristic value of the following authorial concepts: a) representation of grammatical categories of verbs as the unity of form and meaning of a language unit; b) the interaction of lexical and grammatical semantics at all levels of language structure; c) constructive interaction of functional and expressive styles in the history of literary language; d) the history of the formation of the literary norm of the Ukrainian language; e) development of the Ukrainian literary language in the context of system-structural, functional-communicative and extralingual factors.
EVALUATIVE-AND-COGNITIVE ASPECT OF THE DIARY LINGUISTIC PICTURE OF THE WORLD
Authors: SYRKO Iryna
Published: March 2023

Today, within diary studies, it is advisable to emphasize the study of the diary as a literary genre, historical or biographical source; to characterize diary texts with the use of culturological, philosophical, psychological and other approaches.
Linguistic studies of diary texts are mostly focused on the description of basic typological characteristics. However, the verbalization of the national and individual, as well as chronologically and spatially marked linguistic picture of the world – is only an episodic fragment of modern linguistic diary studies. The parameters of lingualization of the picture of the world in the texts of literary diaristics have not been thoroughly studied yet.
It is known that the linguistic picture of the world is a set of knowledge about the world reflected in the language, as well as ways to obtain and interpret new knowledge. Among the key aspects of its study are evaluative-cognitive (or axiological-epistemological) and ontological, which involve identifying the specifics of verbalization in the diary texts of ways of cognition and interpretation of the world, as well as individual knowledge systems of the authors.
Consideration of the axiological-epistemological aspect of the linguistic picture of the world provides several parameters related to the process of creating the texts of traditional diaries. In particular, they are: egocentricity, autocommunicativeness, as well as synchronicity of recording the events with the moment of their completion.
In the texts of literary diaristics, these parameters undergo qualitative transformations that are related to the professional status of the authors. Such transformations cause egocentricity to become noticeably variable, autocommunicativeness is transformed into bi-addressability, and the synchronicity of the process of fixing events with the moment of their completion loses its stability.
LANGUAGE MARKERS OF CITY SUBCULTURE IN SERHIY ZHADAN’S NOVELS
Authors: HOLOIUKH Larysa
Published: March 2023

The article is dedicated to the linguostylistic study of the language markers of city subculture – an under system of the national culture and verbalization of the specifics of human life in the modern urban space. The article highlights verbal realizations of the city as an agent in Zhadan’s novels “Anarchy in UKR and “Big Mak” – language markers of subculture, and it singles out his lexical and textual components: lexical-semantic groups of infrastructure names, notions of everyday culture, abstract notions, etc. The article follows up the creation of language markers of the city subculture in the space that is a city – time, historic memory, such as language markers of the totalitarian era. Language markers of the modern city are being explored – names of food and drinks, groceries and clothes which are losing their ethnographic function thus recreating an artistic view of globalization in the modern world. The article points out idiostylistic parameters of the author’s narrative in his forming of the depiction of the city, namely the depiction’s psychological course in the space journey – recalling – personal memories. The accent is made on the author’s language strategy- writing about his present and past experiences (memories, associations, personal retrospective), on the author being a part of the youth subculture, syntactic structures, free indirect form questions, questions-introdactions and his orientation towards dialog style. The article proves that the city in Zhadan’s novels functions as his linguocultural and signature feature.

This study focuses on the hierarchical organizational culture of airline cabin crew with a stricter hierarchical order than other industries. The purpose of this study is to suggest implications for human resource management of airline cabin crew through the relationship between hierarchical organizational culture and bullying atmosphere, counterproductive task behavior, and turnover intention. For analysis, SPSS v.21 and AMOS v.21 programs were performed ti conduct frequency analysis for sample characteristics, validity and reliability analysis of measurement tools, and path analysis for hypothesis test. The results of findings are first the hierarchical organizational culture of airline cabin crew had a positive (+) effect on the bullying atmosphere. Second, it was found that the bullying atmosphere of airline cabin crew had a positive (+) effect on counterproductive work behavior. Third, the bullying atmosphere of airline cabin crew had a positive (+) effect on turnover intention. Fourth, the counterproductive work behavior had a positive (+) effect on turnover intention. At the last, it was analyzed that counterproductive work behavior was partially mediated between the bullying atmosphere and turnover intention. With the results of this study, we present strategic implications for human resource management of airline cabin crew.
The Effect of Revised Audit Reports on Analyst’s Earning Forecast Accuracy
Authors:   Academic Society of Global Business Administration, Ma Hee Young , Jung Jin Hyang
Published: March 2023

The changed audit report has changed not only in the form of full arrangement of audit opinions, but also in the contents of key audit matters and the signature of the director in charge of business, which aims to improve the information value of the audit report and improve audit quality. In this study, the effect of these changes in audit reports on the accuracy of profit prediction by financial analysts who are information users was empirically analyzed. A total of 2,343 company-year data were used for listed companies from 2011 to 2019. As a result of the empirical anaysis, it was found that companies that are required to list key audit matters from 2019 have higher accuracy in predicting earnings by financial analysts than companies that do not. However, it was found that the incremental effect of earning prediction accuracy due to the entry of key audit matters was reduced. The results of this study indicate that the information value of the changed audit report has changed. This study is differentiated from previous studies in that it empirically analyzed the effect of the changed audit report in terms of information value change by examining the effect on the financial analyst's earning forecast accuracy, focusing on the changed audit report and key audit matters.
The Current Status of United States Legislation in Resolving the Problem of Non-citizen Adoptees and South Korea’s Response to Prevent the Deportation of Korean Adoptees
Authors:   Center for Public Interest & Human Rights Law Chonnam National University, Chung Min-Jung
Published: March 2023

The ｢2021 Adoptee Citizenship Act｣ was issued by the House of Representatives on March 3, 2021, and the U.S. Senate on March 25, 2021. It is a bill that amends Section 320(b) of the ｢Immigration and Nationality Act｣ within U.S. Federal Law. If the U.S. Congress passes the ｢2021 Adoptee Citizenship Act｣, the number of adopted children who were born in a third country and automatically acquire U.S. citizenship after being adopted by U.S. citizens could increase in comparison to the time period ｢2000 Child Citizenship Act｣ has been in effect. Presently, the Overseas Director of Korean Consular Affairs, the Consulate General of the Republic of Korea in Los Angeles, civic group that campaign for the rights of adoptees in the United States, as well as Korean American groups, are making efforts to pass the bill.
Although the Biden administration has made significant positive amendments to the immigration regulations of the Trump administration, the bill is still in a deadlock along with other significant immigration reform bills proposed by the Biden administration and the prospects for the passage of the bill remain unclear. In addition, even if the ｢2021 Adoptee Citizenship Act｣ passes, the law could not be a remedy for all the Korean adoptees (their estimated number is 19,000) who have not been able to receive U.S. citizenship.
Hence, South Korea needs to understand the situation of the adoptees who have not acquired U.S. citizenship and should individually and legally support these people so that they could obtain the legal status of residence and citizenship within the United States. As South Korean supports Korean adoptees in their acquisition of citizenship, it is of utmost importance to respect the territorial sovereignty of the United States and pay close attention not to undermine the friendly relationship between the two sides. Meanwhile, the United States needs to actively seek legislative measures for granting citizenship to all Korean non-citizen adoptees based on the principle of respect for human rights (the right to family reunification in this case). These are people who legally entered the United States immediately after birth, under the connivance of the governments of the two sides, and have lived all their lives in the United States as children of parents who are U.S. citizens. However, classifying them as illegally residing foreigners and deporting them from the United States is quite an inhumane and humiliating treatment to those people of concern who naturally consider the United States as their homeland.
Public Space as a Political Strategy of Transgender Rights: Case study on Transgender Day of Remembrance March in Korea, 2019
Authors:   Center for Public Interest & Human Rights Law Chonnam National University, Hwang Sooyearn
Published: March 2023

This study is an attempt to analyze the strategic position of public space in the political practices of minority parties. Inspecting public space as a strategic choice for the political practice of the subaltern counterpublics, this study examines the strategic position of the public space in the political practice of subalterns, by analyzing the case of the '2019 Transgender Remembrance Day March' in Korea.
As a result of the study, the public space itself turned out to be a strategy in practicing the movement for the visualization of subaltern identity by the actors, and at the same time, functioning as a space for the subaltern to practice various politic strategies. Actors are also aware of the importance of these public spaces, and have obtained various effects by strategically choosing them as a method of movement and appropriating the space.
Physical public space becomes the lens that most explicitly exposes the criteria for who the community accepts as a member of the community in the real world. Since the right to the city—particularly, access to public space—is a right granted to everyone ‘in principle’, it paradoxically reveals the boundary of the exclusive right to the membership of the community most clearly. Therefore, the intersectional study of human rights and space will be a guideline pointing to the current state of minority human rights in our society, and at the same time, it will be an effective method for subjects crossing the boundaries of human rights represented by space.
A Statistical Relation between Mass, Age, and Velocity Dispersion in the Solar Neighborhood*
Authors: Fatheddin Hossein , Sajadian Sedighe
Published: March 2023

The stellar kinematics of the Galactic disk are the main factors constraining disk formation and evolution processes in the Milky Way. In this paper, we investigate a statistical relation between stellar mass, age, and velocity dispersion for stars in the solar neighborhood. Age–velocity dispersion relations, with their applications, have been studied in detail before, but their correlation with mass was mostly neglected. To investigate this relation, we use proper motion data of more than 113,035 stars in the Galactic disk (with solar distances less than 150 pc) provided by the third data release of the Gaia mission, and for stellar mass and age, Gaia's Final Luminosity Age Mass Estimator is implemented. We analyze this data and the correlations between the parameters with random forest regression, which is an ensemble statistical-learning technique. Finally, we show that, by considering stellar mass alongside age, we can determine velocity dispersions with an average relative error and a mean absolute error of about 9% and 2.68 km s−1, respectively. We also find that the correlation of stellar age with velocity dispersion is 3–8 times more than mass, which varies due to the different stellar types and masses.

Published: March 2023

We test the merger-induced dual active galactic nuclei (dAGNs) paradigm using a sample of 35 radio galaxy pairs from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Stripe 82 field. Using Keck optical spectroscopy, we confirm 21 pairs have consistent redshifts, constituting kinematic pairs; the remaining 14 pairs are line-of-sight projections. We classify the optical spectral signatures via emission line ratios, equivalent widths, and excess of radio power above star formation predicted outputs. We find six galaxies are classified as LINERs and seven are AGN/starburst composites. Most of the LINERs are retired galaxies, while the composites likely have AGN contribution. All of the kinematic pairs exhibit radio power more than 10× above the level expected from just star formation, suggestive of a radio AGN contribution. We also analyze high-resolution (0.″3) imaging at 6 GHz from the NSF’s Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array for 17 of the kinematic pairs. We find six pairs (two new, four previously known) host two separate radio cores, confirming their status as dAGNs. The remaining 11 pairs contain single AGNs, with most exhibiting prominent jets/lobes overlapping their companion. Our final census indicates a dAGN duty cycle slightly higher than predictions of purely stochastic fueling, although a larger sample (potentially culled from VLASS) is needed to fully address the dAGN fraction. We conclude that while dAGNs in the Stripe 82 field are rare, the merger process plays some role in their triggering and it facilitates low to moderate levels of accretion.

Hence, it is of critical importance to understand the effects of SED fitting methods on stellar mass estimates of Epoch of Reionization galaxies. In this work, we perform a case study on the AGN host galaxy candidate COS-87259, with spectroscopic redshift z

As these models are becoming increasingly popular for James Webb Space Telescope high-redshift science, we stress the absolute importance of testing various SED fitting routines particularly on apparently very massive galaxies at such high redshifts.
The Behavior of BpSi Stars in the Far UV—Paper II: HD 9996 (HR 465)
Authors: Monier Richard
Published: March 2023

The analysis of IUE spectra of the B9 SiCrEu star HD 9996 recorded by the SWP and the LWP camera on board the International Ultraviolet Explorer collected at two phases of its very long rotational period (separated by Δϕ = 0.40), reveals large variations of the far and mid ultraviolet flux. The FUV flux seems to vary in opposition with the optical brightness recorded by the Fine Error Sensor near the V band. At ultraviolet maximum, the lines of Mg ii, Cr ii and Fe ii are definitely stronger than at minimum, which suggests that these elements are distributed in a non uniform manner on the stellar disk with large horizontal gradients. However, the changing aspect of the magnetic field between the two rotational phases observed could also cause part of the ultraviolet variability.

Introduction: The present study evaluated the characteristics of the initial dengue outbreaks in the Jaffna peninsula, a region without dengue prior to mid-2009 in dengue-endemic Sri Lanka, a tropical island nation.
Methodology: This is a cross-sectional study conducted using a total of 765 dengue patients’ clinical data and samples collected from the Teaching Hospital, Jaffna during the initial dengue outbreaks. Clinical, non-specific, and specific virological laboratory characteristics including the platelet count, NS1 antigen, and anti-DENV IgM/IgG were evaluated as correlates of dengue virus (DENV) infection in the two initial outbreaks of 2009/2010 and 2011/2012 in Northern Sri Lanka.
Results: Firstly, affected age and clinical characteristics were significantly different between the outbreaks (p < 0.005). Secondly, NS1 antigen detection in patients with fever days < 5 was statistically significant (p < 0.005). Thirdly, platelet count, detection of NS1 antigen, and anti-DENV IgM/IgG profiles were adequate to diagnose 90% of the patients; hepatomegaly and platelet count of < 25,000/mm3 were identified as predictors of severe disease. Fourthly, secondary DENV infections were detected in the early stages of the illness in many patients. Finally, infecting DENV serotypes were different between the two outbreaks.
Conclusions: Clinical and non-specific laboratory characteristics and the infecting DENV serotypes between the two initial outbreaks in Northern Sri Lanka were significantly different. NS1 antigen, anti-DENV IgM/IgG, and platelet counts were identified 90% of the dengue patients. Hepatomegaly and platelet count of < 25,000/mm3 were able to predict the disease severity in this study.

Introduction: Doxycycline is an antibiotic with known gastrointestinal (GI) adverse effects. Esophagitis is the most pronounced among these effects, and might be associated with a prolonged duration of therapy. The aim of this study is to evaluate the incidence of esophagitis and other GI side effects in adults who received doxycycline for at least a month.
Methodology: This retrospective descriptive study included adults who received oral doxycycline for at least one month between 2016 and 2018. The primary outcome was the frequency of esophagitis. The secondary outcomes were frequency of and discontinuation due to GI adverse effects.
Results: A total of 189 subjects were included with a median age of 32 years. The median duration of doxycycline use was 44 days (interquartile range 30-60). Twelve patients (6.3%) reported having GI adverse effects resulting in doxycycline discontinuation in five of them (2.6%), and three patients (1.6%) had esophagitis. The incidence of GI adverse effects was significantly higher in patients who were ≥ 50 years than < 50 years old (8/50 vs. 4/139; p = 0.003) and in those who received a daily dose of 200 mg than 100 mg (12/93 vs. 0/96; p < 0.001).
Conclusions: GI adverse events, including esophagitis, are not rare with long-term use of oral doxycycline, particularly in older age and a higher dose of 200 mg/day. Future large and randomized studies are needed to compare the efficacy and safety of different doxycycline doses.

The microbiological aspects of traditional Travnik/Vlašić cheese was investigated. The cheese was made traditionally, from raw sheep milk at three small farms (A, B, C) on Mountain Vlašić. The microbiological quality of the cheese was examined during three stages of ripening (5, 30, 60 days) and followed during three seasons (3 years). Twenty-seven samples of cheese were collected and analyzed for the aerobic mesophilic count, yeasts and molds, coliforms and microorganisms from the group Staphylococcus spp. Average values determined for the number of investigated groups of microorganisms of all cheese samples throughout three different stages, seasons, and small farms were: aerobic mesophilic bacteria 8.03 log10 cfu·g-1, yeasts and molds 3.63 log10 cfu·g-1, coliforms 5.16 log10 cfu g-1, and microorganisms from the group Staphylococcus spp. 4.49 log10 cfu g-1. ANOVA showed that experimental factor ripening stage (days) had a significant effect on all testing parameters. Results obtained with this study indicate that hygiene during the production of traditional products must be increased in order to assure high quality of the final products.
