Authors: Shishkarev Mikhail , Gavrilenko Maksim
Published: July 2023

The study objective is synthesis of the control structure diagram of an adaptive elastic and safety friction clutch with positive feedback based on V-shaped elastic elements and determination of the optimal parameters of the system.

The task to which the paper is devoted is the development of structural and functional diagrams of an adaptive friction clutch with positive feedback.

Research methods: previously applied theory of complete limit torque stabilization of an adaptive elastic and safety friction clutch with positive feedback made it possible to create mathematical models that locally describe the process of automatic regulation in the control device. Based on the analysis of the mathematical modeling method, the possibility of using synthesized structure diagrams of positive feedback acting in the entire range of changes in the friction factor or in its most parts.

The novelty of the work is connected with finding the relations for calculating the optimal parameters of the feedback control device, which allow to increase the stability of the transmitted load.

Research results: structural and functional diagrams of an adaptive elastic and safety friction clutch with positive feedback based on a flexible console of variable length with a "negative" initial angle of inclination are developed. A dependence is obtained that allows determining the maximum load of the clutch at different values of friction factor.

Conclusions: high reliability of the adaptive elastic and safety friction clutch of the third generation is theoretically ensured by the synthesis of a control device with V-shaped elastic elements.

Published: July 2023

Background: The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship and impact of D-dimer levels and preeclamptic pregnancies at different ages in women. Methods: We conducted an observational retrospective cohort study of 325 pregnant women who delivered in Wenzhou People’s Hospital from January 2018 to December 2021. Clinical data including age, neutrophils, lymphocytes, platelets, fibrinogen, gestational age, D-dimer/fibrinogen, blood pressure at admission, and fetal weight were collected from the medical record database. All measurements were made using the same methods. Data for continuous variables were expressed as X ± standard deviation (SD), and inter-group differences in continuous data were compared by independent sample t-test. Continuous variables that do not conform to the normal distribution, such as age and D-dimer, were expressed as median and quartile ranges. The relationship between D-dimer and preeclampsia pregnant women of different ages was evaluated by receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curve analysis. Results: Among the middle-aged pregnant women, the average D-dimer in the normotensive pregnancy group was (1.367 ± 0.03 mg/L), which was significantly lower than that in the preeclampsia group (2.087 ± 0.16 mg/L). The D-dimer/fibrinogen ratio was comparable between the young groups, but there was a difference between the middle-aged groups. Meanwhile, in middle-aged pregnant women, the predicted area of D-dimer for preeclampsia was 70.2% (95% confidence interval (CI) 60–80.43%, p = 0.0002) , which was significantly higher than that in the young group. Conclusions: Prenatal D-dimer levels may be associated with more accurate predictors of preeclampsia in middle-aged women than in young women.

Published: July 2023

Background: This study investigated the effects of 12-week resistance training on body composition, blood pressure, blood lipid levels, muscle cross-sectional area (CSA), isokinetic muscle function, and hemorheological properties in middle-aged obese women. Methods: Twenty-eight obese women with a mean age of 50.79 ± 5.80 years were randomly assigned to the control (CON, n = 13) or experimental (EXP, n = 15) group. The EXP group underwent a resistance training program composed of warm-up, main resistance exercise (deadlift, barbell squat, seated leg extension, and lying leg curl, bench press, preacher bench biceps curl, barbell rowing, and dumbbell shoulder press), and cool-down. The resistance exercise consisted of three sets of 8–10 repetitions (reps) performed with 70–80% of 1-rep maximum, and reps and sets were increased every 3 weeks. The training frequency was 80 min, 3 days per week for 12 weeks. The CON group maintained their daily lifestyle without training. All participants underwent measurements of body composition (weight, body mass index, lean body mass, fat mass, and % body fat), blood pressure (systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, mean arterial pressure, and pulse pressure), blood lipid levels (triglycerides, total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol), CSA of the muscles (quadriceps, hamstring, and total thigh muscle), isokinetic muscle function (peak torque [PT], relative PT, mean power, and total work [TW]), and hemorheological properties (erythrocyte deformability and aggregation) before and after 12 weeks of training. Results: The EXP group showed a significant improved muscle function, including PT (p < 0.001), relative PT (p < 0.001) in extension 60°/s, TW (p < 0.001) in extension 180°/s, and TW (p = 0.018) in flexion 180°/s. Regarding hemorheological properties, the EXP group showed significant improvement in erythrocyte aggregation (p < 0.001) and deformability (p < 0.001). Conclusions: The present study verified that our resistance training program resulted in greater muscle function, decreased fat mass, and improved hemorheological properties. Clinical Trial Registration: This study was registered with cris.nih.go.kr (No. KCT0007412).
Applying cultural evolutionary theory to the technological transition during the Late Pleistocene in Korea
Authors: Park Gayoung
Published: July 2023

This is my PhD dissertation. In this research, I explore the technological transition from the Early to Late Paleolithic in Korea represented by the appearance of stemmed points through evolutionary concepts including human behavioral ecology (HBE) and cultural transmission (CT). I also examined differentlikely uses of stemmed points by measuring tip cross-sectional area (TCSA). The previous studies have primarily discussed the origin and route of stemmed points and blades while my research focuses more on related human behaviors and decision-making processes. I raised three questions to address cultural and environmental roles in the technological transition: what changes in foragers’ landscape use and mobility were associated with the introduction of new tools? What were stemmed points used for? And what was the dominant mode of cultural transmission during the time of technological innovation in the Korean Late Paleolithic? My approach to answer these questions is combined with traditional theoretical frameworks and novel methods for testing hypotheses.

Published: July 2023

Human being lives in a three-dimensional geography ecological system. How is this natural space transformed and represented by the mind? In geography and physics, the entity and thing are represented by the Cartesian geometry at low speed level. In psychology its spatiotemporal property was deeply investigated, however, the unified framework of geometry of mind space representation is still not completely established. And a geometry of psychophysics space, constancy space proposed previously but ecological factor and self-consistency are neglected. Here, we will report a new framework of developed and restructured ecological geometry of self-ecology mind space. Under these completely frameworks, the information structure of objects and events show an important invariability in signal space translating, which consists with classical perceptual constancy and other classical psychological experiments. It indicates that a mental geometry and mental kinematics to express mental activity was born. Obviously, it will be a revolution for a unified psychology theory and cognitive philosophy in the future.
Culturally responsive teaching self-efficacy and cultural diversity climate are positively associated with the academic and psychological adjustment of immigrant and non-immigrant students

Published: July 2023

This study investigated the association between teachers’ culturally responsive teaching (CRT) self-efficacy, students’ perceptions of classroom cultural diversity climate (i.e., equal treatment by students and heritage and intercultural learning) and the academic and psychological adjustment of elementary school children in culturally diverse German classrooms. Participants were 41 teachers and 234 fourth grade students (38% first immigrant generation, 43.4% second immigrant generation, 18.6% non-immigrant). Analyses showed that teachers’ CRT self-efficacy and student-perceived equal treatment were positively related to mathematical competence and German proficiency. Heritage and intercultural learning was positively associated with school belongingness and life satisfaction, but negatively with reading comprehension. Equal treatment and heritage and intercultural learning did not mediate the relation between CRT self-efficacy and students’ adjustment. Findings suggested that teachers’ CRT self-efficacy and classroom cultural diversity climate can be beneficial for different aspects of the academic and psychological adjustment of elementary school students, regardless of their immigrant generation.
Weather on the Brain III: Archival Analysis from Weather on the Brain II: Quantifying the Need to Think About Weather Through the Development and Initial Validation of the Need for Cognition about Weather Scale (Bolton, 2021)
Authors: Bolton Matthew J.
Published: July 2023

This paper is a short report based on archival data from my 2021 master’s thesis which explored the quantification of a need for cognition about weather. Factor validation methods yielded a 2-factor, 20-item scale with good internal reliability and convergent validity with weather-centric individual differences as well as the Characteristics of Self-Actualization Scale (Kaufman, 2018/2023). Need for cognition about weather appears to be a stable construct and is associated with several more basic dimensions of weather salience. These include basic attention (trait weather salience), perceptual weather curiosity, and epistemic weather curiosity. The most central aspects of need for cognition about weather as it has been conceptualized here appear to be predicted by the curiosity facet of epistemic weather curiosity. This relationship appears to be modestly explained not be need for cognition generally, revolving around the motivation to think, but by the construct of systemizing which purportedly involves a tendency to think in an if-then, heuristic-type manner about how things in the world function.
A jsPsych plugin for the Inclusion of Other in the Self (IOS) Scale
Authors: Kinley Isaac , van Vugt Floris Tijmen
Published: July 2023

We present a web-based implementation of the Inclusion of Other in the Self (IOS) Scale written as a plugin for the popular jsPsych library. The IOS Scale measures perceived relational closeness, visually represented by the degree of overlap of a pair of circles, and is widely used to study interpersonal relationships. In contrast to the original 7-point discrete scale, the current tool allows for continuous measurements. Moreover, through changes of parameters, it can be configured to implement measures beyond the IOS Scale that use overlapping circles to represent relational closeness (e.g., measures of identity fusion).
Non-Stationarity in Time-Series Analysis: Modeling Stochastic and Deterministic Trends
Authors: Ryan Oisín , Haslbeck Jonas M B , Waldorp Lourens
Published: July 2023

Time series analysis is increasingly popular across scientific domains. A key concept in time series analysis is stationarity, the stability of statistical properties of a time series. Understanding stationarity is crucial to addressing frequent issues in time series analysis such as the consequences of failing to model non-stationarity, how to determine the mechanisms generating non-stationarity, and consequently how to model those mechanisms (i.e. by differencing or detrending). However, many empirical researchers have limited understanding of stationarity, which can lead to the use of incorrect research practices and misleading substantive conclusions. In this paper, we address this problem by answering these questions in an accessible a way. To this end, we study how researchers can use detrending and differencing to model trends in time series analysis. We show via simulation the consequences of modeling trends inappropriately, and evaluate the performance of one popular approach to distinguish different trend types in empirical data. We present these results in an accessible way, providing an extensive introduction to key concepts in time series analysis, illustrated throughout with simple examples. Finally, we discuss a number of take-home messages and extensions to standard approaches, which directly address more complex time-series analysis problems encountered by empirical researchers.
Address Challenges Markowitz (1952) Faces: A New Measure of Asset Risk
Authors: Nie George Y.
Published: July 2023

Markowitz (1952) asset risk (MAR) has long been challenged. First, as an impostor of asset risk, volatility captures the noise of firm risk over asset maturity that incorrectly reflects asset risk (which has to be measured over a unit of time length to be cumulative since asset holder’s risk approaches zero as the holding time length approaches zero). Second, volatility does not decrease asset value while volatility of a lognormal distribution actually raises the value. We thus argue that asset risk drives volatility, but not vice versa, implying that asset risk cannot be diversified away. Third, support to MAR appears to arise from a confusion between asset value and wealth utility: the law of diminishing marginal utility supports that volatility reduces the latter. The above causes explain why CAPM and Fama-French models have long been struggling to price asset volatilities. To address these challenges, we propose that the volatility (variance) of realized (expected) asset value approaches zero as the measuring distance approaches zero. We delineate expected asset value (which asset risk impacts without a distribution) and volatility (which does not affect the former following a quasi-normal distribution we proposed). As debt risk of Nie (2024a), our equity risk is rooted in a payment’s risk that approaches zero as the distance approaches zero, reflecting a 5-year payment’s risk to be comparable across assets and across firms. We show that equity price reflects the present value of a payment spanning over the predictable lifetime of firm performance, and that an option’s price minus its present value reflects the overcharge or transaction cost. Our asset risk, captured as risk premium, thus solves issues that have long been challenging agency theories, and redefines firm misvaluation theories.
Ayurveda treatment strategy in management of advanced breast cancer in elderly female- A case report with review of literature
Authors: Lakshmi Vasantha
Published: July 2023

Breast cancer is the most common malignancy among women globally and in India. The higher prevalence of advanced breast cancer (ABC) in elderly women is attributable to delayed diagnosis, lack of sufficient health care resources and high costs for conventional treatment). Also, the modern treatment very extensive for ABC cases with surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy with little compliance for elderly patients and mortality is mostly linked to the side-effects of these advanced treatments. We report a case of advanced breast cancer (locally advanced to axillary nodes and skeletal muscles) in 76 year-old-female patient who presented with initially with in right subscapular region and insomnia after conventional chemotherapy. She opted for complete Ayurvedic treatment over 8 months which led to complete regression of cancer and local sites. The aim of the case report is present the symptoms, treatment regimens, and dietary modifications of such a case with basic literature review on Ayurveda treatment of breast cancers.

Scientific world is in search of newer and effective therapies against cancer and nature form a good source of drugs. The present study was undertaken to assess the antiproliferative potential of methanolic extract of A. cobbe in C127I cell lines. The leaves of A. cobbe were shade dried and was extracted using methanol and qualitative phytochemical analysis was performed. The extract was assessed for its cytotoxicity by MTT dye reduction assay in C127 I cells maintained using DMEM and 10 per cent foetal bovine serum at concentrations of 320, 160, 80, 40, 20, 20 and 5 µg/mL and the percent cell inhibition and IC50 were calculated. Acridine Orange/Ethidium bromide staining was used to detect the possible mechanism of cytotoxicity. From the results of MTT assay, it could be seen that there was a dose dependent inhibition of cell proliferation of C127I which was maximum at a concentration of 320 µg/mL. The IC50 value of the methanolic extracts was found to be 64.63 µg/mL respectively. The effect was comparable to doxorubicin. The extract and positive control treated cells showed orange to red fluorescence when stained with Acrdine Orange/ Ethidium bromide compared to greenish fluorescence in the control cells indicating apoptosis in the treated cells. The study concluded that methanolic extract of A. cobbe induced cytotoxicity by apoptosis of cancer cells.

Leptadenia pyrotechnica (Forssk.) Decne. (LP) and Capparis cartilaginea Decne. (CC) are plants used in local folk medicine, although there are no published studies on their physiological, hematological, and immune system effects. This study is the first to determine and compare the effects of aqueous LP and CC extracts on body weight parameters, consumptions of feed and water, and the differential complete blood counts in blood samples of healthy Wister albino rats. Six groups of rats (3 rats/group) were orally gavage separately with the aqueous extracts of LP (groups LP1, LP2, and LP3, respectively) and CC (groups CC1, CC2, and CC3, respectively) at concentrations of 30, 100, and 200 mg/kg body weight, while three control rats were gavage with water, daily for two weeks. Body weights were measured daily. The mean total body weights were not significantly different between all groups, between the experimental groups and the control group, and between the equal concentrations of LP and CC groups. The mean total and daily body weight gains and percent relative total body weight gain for the LP3 group were significantly lower compared with the control group. The mean feed and water intakes were highly significantly lower for the LP2, LP3, CC2, and CC3 groups compared with the control group, and for the LP3 group it was significantly lower compared with the CC3 group. The FER for the LP3 group was significantly lower compared with the control group. The mean lymphocyte percent for CC1 was significantly higher and the mean lymphocyte count for LP1 was significantly lower compared with the control. The mean neutrophil percent for LP1 was significantly higher than for CC1 and the mean lymphocyte percents for LP1 and LP2 were significantly lower than for CC1 and CC2. In conclusion, the LP extract enhances the innate immune response and inhibits the acquired immune response, while the CC extract does the exact opposite. Thus, the extract may be used for modulating the immune response.

Published: July 2023

This paper examines reasons for the prevalence of caste discrimination and practice of untouchability in Itihāsko Ek Piakā and Likhe. To fulfill the objective, the researcher has implied Stuart Hall's theory of representation under cultural studies as main and other theorists' insights are cited as supporting tools to analyze and interpret the primary texts. This study is primarily a library based qualitative research. The area of this research is confined to novels by both Dalit and non-Dalit Nepali writers. The data were collected from text information, description and record keeping. The researcher found that all the Dalit characters have been facing socio-economic, educational, political and cultural domination, discrimination, humiliation and biasness from the upper caste people in the words and actions. The representation of Dalit characters displays that due to the policy of the nation results the caste discrimination and practice of untouchability. These evil socio-cultural practices result: illiteracy, poverty, unemployment, lack of political access, lack of unity among Dalits and lack of self-esteems. Beside this, characters in both novels: Bhuwansingh and Likhe suffer by same childhood experiences in terms of discrimination and untouchability. These evil socio-cultural practices also affect the learning environment. Thus, Dalits have been suffering lifelong and searching their self-respect and humanly treatment to emancipate them. This study adds new avenue for academic discussion in the field of academia so as to address the age-long discriminatory system in order to create a just and healthy society without any forms of discrimination in the name of race, class caste, color and gender. Therefore, it is significant to the academia because it is a great asset.

Published: July 2023

Introduction: Respiratory tract infections are one of the most common and serious health problems in developing countries. Increasing incidences of multidrug-resistant isolates from cases of lower respiratory tract infections have been reported. This study was conducted to determine the bacterial pathogens associated with lower respiratory tract infections with their antibiotic resistance pattern in a tertiary care hospital in Western Nepal.

Methods: This hospital-based cross-sectional study was conducted among patients of Manipal Teaching Hospital, Pokhara, Nepal, from August 2022 to October 2022. A total of 376 specimens from the lower respiratory tract were included in this study. Processing of samples, isolation, identification and antibiotic sensitivity test of the bacterial pathogens was performed by standard methods.

Results: Respiratory pathogens were recovered in 68 samples. Gram-negative bacteria were isolated in 55 cases and Gram-positive bacteria in 13 cases.  Acinetobacter species (42.6%), Staphylococcus aureus (16.9%) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (13.9%) were the three most common pathogens isolated. The majority of the Gram-negative isolates were susceptible to tigecycline and colistin. Among S. aureus isolates, 54.5% (6/11) were methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus.

Conclusion: Gram-negative bacteria were predominantly associated with lower respiratory tract infections with Acinetobacter species as the most common pathogen. Increasing antibiotic resistance was recorded among the pathogens and is alarming. Regular surveillance of pathogens and antibiotic resistance patterns is needed for better management of the patients.

Published: July 2023

Introduction: Cesarean section has three times increased risk of maternal and fetal morbidities compared to vaginal delivery. The rising trend of cesarean deliveries across the globe led the WHO to recommend the use of the Ten Group classification system to monitor cesarean rate over time as well as between facilities. The cesarean section rate is increasing in our centre, so the study was conducted to evaluate the cesarean deliveries and identify the group with a major contribution to the cesarean rate so that policies could be formulated to decrease it in our centre.

Method: It was a cross-sectional descriptive study conducted in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Manipal Teaching Hospital, Nepal for six months after ethical approval. All women who delivered at or beyond 28 weeks were included in the study after their consent and were classified according to Robson's classification based on their obstetric parameters. The total cesarean section rate, the size of each group, the cesarean rate in each group and the absolute contribution of each group to the overall cesarean rate were calculated and analyzed.

Results: Out of 711 deliveries during the study period, the cesarean rate was 51% (n=362).  Group 1(26%) was the major obstetric population followed by Group 3(20%) and Group 2(16%). Group 5(10.97%) had a major contribution to the overall cesarean rate followed by Group 1(10.68%) and Group 2 (9.7%).

Conclusion: The cesarean rate in our study was high and it could be decreased by encouraging the trial of labor after cesarean and revisiting the indication of induction and cesarean in Group 1 and Group 2.

Críticas a la conservación de la naturaleza y la necesidad de su resignificación a la luz de los derechos bioculturales
Authors: Arce-Rojas Rodrigo Severo
Published: July 2023

El presente artículo de revisión recoge algunas de las principales críticas a la conservación de la naturaleza y contribuye aldebate sobre su resignifi cación a la luz de los derechos bioculturales con el propósito de enriquecer su marco conceptual y operativo expresados en la fi gura de las áreas protegidas. Para el efecto se realiza una revisión bibliográfica complementada por la participación del autor en el proceso de actualización del Plan Director del Sistema de Áreas Protegidas del Perú. De la revisión y refl exión se concluye que hasta ahora ha predominado un enfoque de conservación neoliberal que en la práctica produce una serie de impactos ambientales, sociales, institucionales, legales, políticos y económicos dado el carácter complejo de las áreas protegidas. Toda esta situación se pone de manifiesto en conflictos explícitos o latentes entre las áreas protegidas y los pueblos indígenas. Para superar la confrontación es necesario resignificar la conservación de la naturaleza y superar visiones polarizadas y excluyentes de derechos para adoptar los derechos bioculturales como marco del diálogo intercultural, esto implica reconocer los legítimos derechos de los pueblos indígenas y a la vez los derechos de la naturaleza de manera interrelacionada.

The issues which are the subject of this analysis concern the process of organising the food administration structure of the Polish army during the national liberation uprising against the Russian Empire known as the November Uprising. In the period of less than a year from the outbreak to the collapse of the Uprising, the administration responsible for supplying the army with food underwent several structural changes, as the insurrectionary authorities strove to create a legal institution which would meet the supply obligations imposed on it efectively and on time. Basing mainly on archival sources, the author reconstructs the evoltion of the organisation of both the structure of the army’s central food administration with particular emphasis on its office principles, as well as its field organs and subordinate field cells.
THE PHENOMENON OF BIG DATA: CRITICALITIES IN THE SUCCESSION OF DEMATERIALIZED ASSETS

As Steve Jobs used to say: «nobody wants to die. Even people who want to go to heaven don't want to die to go there. But death is still the only fate we share. No one has ever escaped him. And that's how it should be because death is most likely the greatest invention of life. It is the agent of change of life. Sweep away old things to make room for new ones ». While the words of the renowned Californian computer scientist have a validity in relation to individuals and the real world, where everything has a beginning and an end, they do not have their equivalent in the virtual world, in which the data entered remains engraved forever. Thus, scholars find themselves having to face their greatest challenge, that of reconciling the right of people to keep their privacy intact even postmortem and the interests of the heirs to take over the patrimony of those.

Authors: A. Al - Hemiri Adel , E. Mahmoud Heaven
Published: July 2023

In the present study, the removal of zinc from synthetic waste water using emulsion liquid membrane extraction technique was investigated. Synthetic surfactant solution is used as the emulsifying agent. Diphenylthiocarbazon (ditizone) was used as the extracting agent dissolved in carbon tetrachloride as the organic solvent and sulfuric acid is used as the stripping agent. The parameters that influence the extraction percentage of Zn+2 were studied. These are the ratio of volume of organic solvent to volume of aqueous feed (0.5-4), ratio of volume of surfactant solution to volume of aqueous feed (0.2-1.6), pH of the aqueous feed solution (5-10), mixing intensity (100-1000) rpm, concentration of extracting agent (20-400) ppm, surfactant concentration (0.2-2) wt.%, contact time (3-30) min, and concentration of strip phase (0.25-2) M . It was found that 87.4% of Zn+2 can be removed from the aqueous feed solution at the optimum operating conditions. Further studies were carried out on extraction percentages of other toxic metal ions (As+3, Hg+2, Pb+2, Cd+2) by using the same optimum conditions which were obtained for zinc ions except for the pH of the feed solutions. The pH values for best extraction percentages of arsenic, lead, and cadmium were (1, 10, 10) respectively. Maximum extraction percentage of (98.5, 95.5 and 93.8) was obtained for arsenic, lead, and cadmium respectively, while mercury was completely removed from the aqueous feed solution within the acidic pH range.

The corrosion inhibition of low carbon steel in1N HCl solution in the presence of peach juice at temperature (30,40,50,and 60)°C at concentration ( 5, 10, 20, 30, 40and 50 cm3/L)were studied using weight loss and polarization techniques. Results show that the inhibition efficiency was increased with the increase of inhibitor concentration and increased with the increase of temperature up to 50ºC ,above 50ºC (i.e. at 60 ºC) the values of efficiency decreases. Activation parameters of the corrosion process such as activation energies, Ea, activation enthalpies, ΔH, and activation entropies, ΔS, were calculated. The adsorption of inhibitor follows Langmuir isotherm. Maximum inhibition efficiency obtained was a bout 91% at 50ºC in the 50 cm3/L inhibitor concentration. The polarization curves show that peach Juice is a mixed inhibitor.

Доведено, що сьогодні нового змісту набувають проблеми активізації навчально-пізнавальної діяльності здобувачів, розвитку самостійного, творчого мислення, формування мотивації, організації контролю та самоконтролю; розробки підходів до використання новітніх ІТ задля розвитку особистості здобувача, формування здатності застосовувати вміння та навички з інформатики та інформаційних технологій для розв’язання завдань незнайомого характеру; розробляти плани й проєкти для забезпечення досягнення певної мети з урахуванням усіх аспектів завдань, розв’язуються, включно з комп’ютерним і програмним забезпеченням та їх експлуатацією; розробляти, досліджувати, реалізовувати мовами програмування алгоритми розв’язання задач з інформатики. У процесі організації групової роботи здобувачів у ЗВО на початкових етапах основні переваги використання ІТ пов’язувалися з розширеними можливостями індивідуалізації навчання. Водночас, в умовах інформатизації навчання поряд з індивідуальними та фронтальними формами доцільним є застосування групових форм. Встановлено особливості групової роботи здобувачів в умовах інформатизації навчання: під час застосування комп’ютерних телекомунікаційних та мережевих технологій безпосередні прямі контакти між членами групи є необов’язковими, спільна робота може бути організованою між віддаленими учасниками; використання ІТ дозволяє впровадити в навчання нові змістовні завдання, орієнтовані на моделювання об’єктів, явищ, процесів та їх дослідження та мають практичну значущість; під час виконання завдань в електронній формі мережеві технології дозволяють кожному члену групи мати однаковий доступ до об’єкта спільної діяльності в будь-який момент роботи; новітні ІТ підвищують інтенсивність роботи здобувачів, що дозволяє досягти завершеності роботи здобувачів у складі груп у межах одиниці навчального часу; використання ІТ сприяє розвиткові творчих здібностей кожного здобувача в умовах спільної роботи.

Представлена стаття продовжує цикл публікацій, присвячених дослідженню різних аспектів функціонування системи вищої освіти України в складних умовах воєнних дій і розгляду проблеми розвитку soft skills у студентської молоді в умовах дистанційного навчання. Авторами проаналізовано науково-педагогічні статті зарубіжних авторів, публіцистичні праці вітчизняних дослідників дотичних тем. Зауважено, що сучасні вимоги до підготовки науково-педагогічних працівників вимагають засвоєння не тільки професійних компетенцій, так званих hard skills, а й надпрофесійних soft skills. Встановлено, що soft skills можна та потрібно ефективно розвивати в закладі вищої освіти, вдало інтегруючи їх до навчальних планів і програм. Зазначено, що у зарубіжних країнах успішно реалізовуються різноманітні державні та міжнародні програми, спрямовані на впровадження «soft skills» в освітні стандарти, освітні програми організацій різного рівня. Сучасними дослідниками виокремлено наступні основні групи «soft skills»: ефективне мислення, емоційний інтелект, комунікаційні й управлінські навички. Окреслені групи навичок необхідні для майбутньої професійної діяльності й успішно реалізуються у викладацькій практиці закладу вищої освіти.

Зазначено, що «soft skills» не пов’язані із певною професійною галуззю і вважаються надпрофесійними, їх відносять до емоційної сфери, протиставляючи інтелектуальній. Авторами наголошено на тому, що залучення студентської молоді під час дистанційного навчання до участі в різноманітних освітніх онлайн проєктах, тренінгах, вебінарах і семінарах сприятиме розвитку «soft skills». Підсумком статті є думка про те, що, враховуючи запити ринку праці, навички, затребувані роботодавцями із перспективним поглядом у майбутнє, освітнє середовище закладу вищої освіти повинно трансформуватися, щоб ефективно розвивати «soft skills» здобувачів, сформувати в студентської молоді лідерські якості, комунікативні та навички роботи в команді, здатність до вирішення проблем, соціальний і емоційний інтелект тощо.

У статті зазначено, що наразі актуальним є питання формування професійного статусу майбутнього викладача закладу вищої освіти. На підґрунті аналізу наукової літератури уточнено суть поняття «професійний статус викладача» (стан, місце викладача в суспільстві, що визначається специфічними для професійно-педагогічної діяльності ролями, у яких відбиваються обов’язки, права та норми, що пред’являються педагогу як посереднику між здобувачем і суспільством у процесі передачі соціального досвіду, накопиченого людством, а також внутрішня його впевненість у власних професійних знаннях, уміннях, здібностях, можливостях, відчуття благополуччя, почуття власної гідності, що забезпечують йому авторитет серед колег та здобувачів) і «професійний статус майбутнього викладача» (сукупність прав і обов’язків, що визначають його стан, місце та роль у закладі вищої освіти, забезпечується ціннісними орієнтаціями й установками особистості, системою знань і вмінь, особистісними якостями, самооцінкою й оцінкою іншими його діяльності, зумовлюючи адекватні дії та поведінку, і знаходить вияв в авторитеті, репутації майбутнього викладача). З урахуванням наукового доробку сучасних дослідників розглянуто структуру професійного статусу майбутнього викладача, що складається із зовнішнього складника, внутрішнього, статус-символіки, статус-легенди, середовищного, професійних якостей, вербальної, невербальної, продуктивної. Акцентовано, що будь-який професійний статус не формується спонтанно, він є результатом цілеспрямованої роботи педагогічного колективу закладу вищої освіти та самого магістра (над собою) у контексті вибудови взаємопов’язаних компонентів: стимулювального, інтелектуально-діяльнісного, аналітико-результативного. Підкреслено, що для досягнення професійного статусу магістру потрібно оволодіти професійними знаннями, уміннями, якостями, здійснювати самоконтроль і самооцінку діяльності, формувати більш прискіпливо, ніж спеціалістам інших професій, тому що саме педагоги є взірцем наслідування для майбутніх фахівців.

У презентованій статті розуміння критичності представлено як значуща індивідуально-психологічної характеристика особистості, що обумовлює не тільки продуктивність розумової діяльності, але і соціальну адекватність останньої, актуалізовано проблему формування основ критичності мислення, з дошкільного віку; виділено форми реалізації мислення: поняття, судження, умовивід, які сприяють відображенню об’єктивної дійсності і приводять до певного висновку; розкрито методи здійснення розумових операцій: індукція, дедукція, які визначають напрямок думки; виділені компоненти мислення: когнітивний, особистісний і мовленнєвий, які є підґрунтям для здійснення мислительна діяльність; розкрито сутність та зміст поняття «критичне мислення», як особливий вид мислительна діяльність; з’ясовано, що характерними рисами критичного мислення є самостійність, усвідомленість та цілеспрямованість; повний цикл критичного мислення включає в себе чотири основні і взаємообумовлені фази: аналіз, розуміння, оцінку і критику; розкрито етапи критичного мислення: постановка проблеми, пошук інформації, чітка аргументація, прийняття рішення, рефлексія; визначено особливості освітньої діяльності, спрямованої на формування основ критичного мислення у дітей старшого дошкільного віку.

В результаті проведеного аналізу психолого-педагогічної літератури розкрито зміст поняття «мислення дітей старшого дошкільного віку», «формування критичного мислення дітей старшого дошкільного віку». Виділено особливості освітньої діяльності, спрямованої на формування основ критичного мислення у дітей старшого дошкільного віку, врахування яких спонукає дітей до вироблення своєї точки зору, відстоювання її за допомогою логічних доказів, а також до пошуку альтернативних шляхів вирішення поставленого завдання. зроблено висновок, що в зв’язку з актуальністю даної проблеми необхідна розробка ментально-інтелектуального  методичного комплексу формування основ критичного мислення у дітей старшого дошкільного віку.
