DRAFT: Like Mother Like Child: Differential Impact of Mothers’ and Fathers’ Individual Language Use on Bilingual Language Exposure
Authors: Sander-Montant Andrea , Byers-Heinlein Krista , Bissonnette Rébecca
Published: September 2023

Language exposure is a determiner of language outcomes in bilingual children. The predictiveness of family language strategies versus parents’ individual language use on language exposure was contrasted in children aged 4-31 months (50% female) living in Montreal (mostly mid-high SES, European ethnicity). 221 were learning two community languages (French and English) and 60 were learning a community and a heritage language. Parents’ individual language use better predicted language exposure than family language strategies, and mothers had at least double the impact on language exposure than fathers, likely due to gendered caregiving roles. In a subset of families followed longitudinally, ~25% showed changes in strategy and individual language use over time. Individual caregivers, especially mothers, strongly shape bilingual children’s language exposure.

Well-informed individual and collective decision-making is aided by access to high-quality, factual information. What motivates people to share high-quality news and how can these motives be leveraged to promote news sharing? Based on the theory that self-related and social motives encourage sharing behavior, we designed and tested interventions to increase news sharing. In the interventions, individuals were exposed to actual news stories and were prompted to identify why the content was relevant to themselves (self-relevance) or people they know (social relevance). Across four studies (N participants = 2,559, N observations = 18,780), we systematically examined the effectiveness of these interventions, their generalizability across news topics (climate change and health) and cultures (the United States of America and the Netherlands), their translation to more naturalistic contexts, and their underlying neuropsychological mechanisms. In all studies, we observed expected positive correlations among perceived self and social relevance and sharing intentions. In a neuroimaging study, we also observed corresponding increases in activity in self-referential and social cognitive brain regions. Using the content-framing interventions to test causal relationships, we found that the interventions increased sharing intentions and behavior. Furthermore, we observed generalizability across news topics and cultural contexts and translation to an ecologically valid news exposure context. These findings advance theory by adding neural and behavioral evidence that self-related and social motives prompt people to share information, and demonstrate the ability of content-framing interventions to harness these motives to encourage high-quality news sharing.

Current Concepts Concerning the Role of Viruses in Human Cancer
Authors: Rapp Fred
Published: September 2023

In the first decade of this century, cancer was ranked as the seventh major killer of people in this country, following heart disease and a large number of infectious diseases. Today, it ranks as number two, and fear elevates it to high levels of concern in the minds of the people. This year we estimate that there are going to be 550,000 new cases and 320,000 deaths due to cancer. This represents an increase over previous years, and if the current rate of increase is projected to the year 2000, we would have 1,500,000 new cases and about 640,000 deaths. No one really believes this will happen because better forms of therapy and newer findings will hopefully tend to reduce these numbers.
Increased Life Expectancy After Aorta to Coronary Grafts
Authors: Sewell William H.
Published: September 2023

“So far there is no evidence that coronary grafts prolong life” is a statement that has been made innumerable times during the past year in informal conferences, formal meetings, the medical literature, and even the lay press. Since inadequate amounts of arterial blood to the left ventricular myocardium is an undisputed cause of death, it seems logical that increased quantities of blood to patients with coronary disease should be expected to prolong life. There is abundant arteriographic evidence that these grafts do carry additional blood to the myocardium. However, a number of factors are prudently considered in applying this simple theory to complex clinical practicality.

Published: September 2023

Estimation of the influence of anthropogenic factors on the seismic signal is an important problem in ensuring the quality of seismological data and, accordingly, the quality of scientific research. Due to the unprecedented situation associated with the introduction of measures to prevent the spread of COVID-19, non-working days were established in Russia from April 4 to April 30, 2020. It became possible to assess the impact of a notable decrease in anthropogenic activity on the seismic signal (noise) recorded by seismic instruments in the territory of the largest city of the Kamchatka, Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky. We study seismic noise by standard technique, based on the analysis of the probability density function of the noise power spectral density obtained from the data of the digital archive of the noise spectra of seismic stations. A decrease in the seismic noise power level below the minimum values of the same periods of previous years was registered at stations installed in schools, residential buildings (boarding schools) or near public and office buildings. The minimal anthropogenic influence stations were selected. The obtained data can be used for determination the features of the work of both stations and individual channels, taking into account their direction and position, relative to the objects of human activity.
Volcanic complexes and tectonic-magmatic stages of the evolution of the Guyots of the Magellan Seamounts (Pacific Ocean). Communication 2: Tectono-magmatic stages

Five tectonic-magmatic stages are distinguished in the evolution of the guyots of the Magellan Seamounts: 1 — Late Jurassic-Early Cretaceous (earliest Cretaceous — ~160–140 (?) Ma); 2 — Early Cretaceous (Late Barremian(?)-Aptian-Albian — ~127–96 Ma); 3 — Late Cretaceous (Late Cenomanian (?)-Turonian-Early Campanian — ~95–76 Ma); 4 — Late Cretaceous (Late Campanian-Maastrichtian — ~74.5–66.0 Ma); 5 — Cenozoic — 66–0 Ma. Each of the tectonic-magmatic stages corresponds to a certain age complex of volcanic rocks of the Magellan Seamount. Tectonic-magmatic stages have different durations and played different roles in the evolution and formation of the modern structure of the guyots of the Magellanic Seamounts. Each of the tectono-magmatic stages characterizes a specific geomorphological space of guyots (base, main part of the edifice, small complicating superimposed structures of the 2-nd order). Each of the tectonic-magmatic stages characterizes a specific geomorphological space of guyots (base, main body, small complicating superimposed second-order structures). On the whole, the tectonic-magmatic stages of the evolution of the Magellan Seamounts are in good agreement with the evolution stages of some other regions of the Pacific Ocean and correspond to the previously established periods of their tectonic-magmatic activation.
Biobased nanoemulsions for targeted drug delivery to treat dementia and aging
Authors: D'Arrigo Joseph S.
Published: September 2023

Early changes in cerebrovascular hemodynamics and endothelial function can contribute to altered cognitive function and systemic vascular stiffness later in life. Accordingly, vascular pathology accompanies the mechanisms underlying aging. The development of chronic cerebral hypoperfusion, which leads to a lack of blood flow to the brain, is a common trait despite the various and complex pathogenic mechanisms causing these vascular alterations. Drugs or other bioactive compounds can be incorporated into a "high density lipoprotein-like" ("HDL-like") lipid nanocarrier to create a multifunctional "combination therapeutic" that can target cell-surface scavenger receptors, primarily class B type I (i.e., SR-BI). The enhanced endocytosis of the nanocarrier's drug contents into various target cells, made possible by this proposed (biomimetic-nanocarrier) therapeutic vehicle, increases the likelihood that this multitasking "combination therapeutic" will be more effective at various stages of dementia.

Os resultados da investigação apontam que ainda é incipiente a presença de abordagem CTS nos cursos de formação inicial de professores, com inserções pontuais em disciplinas pedagógicas.
Flood and Fire
Authors: Jacka Jerry K. , Moore Amelia
Published: September 2023

The intensifying warming of the planet over the past several decades is a manifestation of centuries of uneven and inequitable extractive economies. This warming is well known to be the main force driving shifts in climatological conditions and extreme weather events leading to increasingly severe impacts on planetary systems. Every year, more locations on earth are experiencing heat waves, intense droughts, longer and larger fire seasons, increased tropical storm intensity, and sea level rise at rates that would have been unthinkable a generation ago while near daily news reports document the increasing toll that this changing climate plays in exacerbating social and ecological vulnerabilities. Just this year, at the start of the Northern Hemisphere summer of 2023, a massive tropical cyclone has killed over 145 people in Bangladesh and Myanmar, western Canada has already seen as much forest burned in a few days as it does in an entire summer, drastically diminishing air quality over half a continent, the Po River Valley in Italy has been ravaged by floods after experiencing two years of extreme drought, and California has experienced deadly and pervasive atmospheric rivers after years of record-setting fire seasons and water shortages. In this special issue, rather than prioritizing benign and depoliticized notions of adaptive capacity and resilience, as is far too common within mainstream discussions of climate change, we highlight the theme of flood and fire to examine these events as compounding contemporary crises and responses to phenomena that are devastating, transforming, and reformulating communities, ecologies, and governing processes around the planet.
Time, Seawalls, and Money
Authors: Anderson Ryan B.
Published: September 2023

This article explores the anthropological and social scientific literature on sea level rise and coastal erosion, examining questions of time, the human dimensions of seawalls, tensions over relocation and retreat, and the politics of finance. This includes insights from the author's research in Baja California Sur, Mexico, and along the California coast in the United States, where locally based experiences illustrate not only the challenges of rising seas and erosion, but also the importance of addressing these issues, sooner rather than later, through the critical lenses of anthropology. Overall, this article explores how anthropologists and other social scientists have critically examined the issues, processes, and tensions that shape global coastal responses, and points to directions for future research and engagement with sea level rise, eroding coasts, and humanity's future along the edge of the sea.
Futures on Dry Ground
Authors: Hilton Theodore , Moore Sheehan
Published: September 2023

Around the world, governments, industry, and other actors are creating plans to save coasts from environmental crisis. Louisiana is one prominent example: levees and other measures protect oil and gas infrastructure from inundation as the wetlands buffer rapidly erodes—in large part due to that same industry. The state's primary answer to land loss is a $50 billion Coastal Master Plan. To illuminate such responses in Louisiana and globally, this article reviews emerging literature and frames an anthropology of coastal planning around three themes: (1) novel orientations toward time and space, (2) the reproduction of power and capital in the name of protection and restoration, and (3) the elision of other forms of land loss and defense by reductive above-ground/underwater planning paradigms.

Published: September 2023

Bu çalışmada aile sistemleri teorisinin temel kavramları açıklanmış, ardından Yol Ayrımı filmi kapsamında bu kavramların incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Bu doğrultuda; aile sistemleri teorisinin temel kavramları olan benliğin farklılaşması, üçgen, kardeş konumu, çekirdek ailenin duygusal sistemleri, aile yansıtma süreci, duygusal kopma, toplumsal gerileme, kuşaklar arası geçiş süreçleri incelenmiştir. Çalışma kapsamında yapılan inceleme sonucunda aile analizine temel olan “Mazhar” karakterinin hem ebeveynlerinden hem de kendi çocuklarından farklılaşma düzeyinin düşük olduğu söylenebilir. Buna ek olarak filmde gözlemleme imkânı bulduğumuz Mazhar’ın hem çekirdek ailesi hem de annesiyle olan ilişkisinde üçgenler, duygusal geri çekilme, çekirdek ailenin duygusal sistemleri, kardeş konumu, aile yansıtma süreci gibi aile sistemleri teorisinin temel kavramlarının mevcut olduğu söylenebilir. Sonuç olarak “Yol Ayrımı” filminin aile sistemleri teorisinin temel kavramları açısından incelenmesi uygun bulunmuş; filmde yer alan sahneler, diyaloglar ve olay örüntüleri aile sistemleri teorisinin temel kavramları kullanılarak değerlendirilmiştir. Bu çalışmanın, Bowen’ın teorisini anlamak ve uygulamak isteyen alan araştırmacıları ile uygulayıcılarına önemli bir kaynak sağlayabileceği düşünülmektedir.

Bu çalışmada büyüklenmeci narsisizm, ebeveynleşme, kontrol odağı ve benlik saygısı arasındaki ilişkilerin değerlendirilmesi amaçlanmıştır. Ayrıca büyüklenmeci narsisizm ile ebeveynleşme arasında kontrol odağı ve benlik saygısının aracı etkisini incelemek çalışmanın diğer amacını oluşturmaktadır. Çalışmanın örneklemini 18-35 (Ort.=21.42, SS=2.78) yaş arasında yer alan 292’si (%70.5) kadın, 122’si (%29.5) erkek toplamda 414 kişi oluşturmaktadır. Veri toplamak amacıyla, Beş Faktör Narsisizm Envanteri-Kısa Form, Ebeveynleşme Envanteri, Kontrol Odağı Ölçeği ve Rosenberg Benlik Saygısı Ölçeği kullanılmıştır. Çalışma kapsamında değişkenler arasındaki ilişkiler korelasyon analizleri ile, aracı değişken analizleri ise çoklu aracılı model testi (Bootstrap) ile incelenmiştir. Çalışmada elde edilen sonuçlara göre büyüklenmeci narsisizm ile ebeveynleşme, kişisel kontrol ve benlik saygısı arasında pozitif yönde anlamlı ilişkiler söz konusudur. Öte yandan, büyüklenmeci narsisizm ve ebeveynleşme arasındaki ilişkide, benlik saygısının tam aracılık etkisinin olduğu görülmüştür. Bu bakımdan ebeveynleşme deneyimleyen bireylerin, benlik saygılarının daha yüksek olduğu ve böylece büyüklenmeci narsisizm geliştirdikleri söylenebilir. Çalışmadan elde edilen bulgular, ebeveynleşme deneyimlerinin bireylerin kişilik özelliklerini nasıl etkilediğinin anlaşılması açısından önemlidir.

После объединения страны отношение руководства страны к протестантизму, который ассоциировался с США было достаточно негативное, тем не менее, протестантизм не был запрещен. К настоящему времени протестанты составляют около 1% населения, рост произошел, в основном, за счет представителей этнических меньшинств, которые проживают в сельской местности. Распространение протестантизма среди титульного этноса затруднено вследствие сохранения популярности народной религии.

POLICY OF THE SOUTHEAST ASIAN COUNTRIES ON “ENERGY TRANSITION”
Authors:   IMEMO RAS, GRIGORYAN Hayk V.
Published: September 2023

В статье анализируются перспективы реализации политических решений стран Юго-Восточной Азии (ЮВА) в сфере декарбонизации энергетического перехода. Страны региона уязвимы перед климатическими изменениями, однако прилагаемые усилия по смягчению последствий глобального потепления все еще несоизмеримы с той угрозой, которую они представляют для региона. Вклад стран в реализацию Парижского соглашения пока находится больше в плоскости декларативных обязательств. Страны региона продолжают использовать ископаемые источники генерации электроэнергии, в том числе наращивают инвестиции в строительство и модернизацию угольных электростанций. Высокие темпы экономического роста, опережающие показатели многих других развивающихся стран, будут накладывать определенные обязательства и вызовы в вопросе сокращения выбросов и внедрения новых низкоуглеродных технологий.При проведении сбалансированной политики зеленого перехода и увеличения доли возобновляемых источников энергии (ВИЭ), в том числе низкоуглеродных источников как природный газ, страны региона смогут ускорить темпы декарбонизации, создать привлекательные условия для экономического развития, привлечения инвестиций, а также укрепить свое положение в международной политической системе, в частности в вопросе достижения Целей устойчивого развития ООН (ЦУР).

На протяжении двух лет ассоциация пытается справиться с кризисом, вызванным захватом власти военными в феврале 2021 г., который привел к развязыванию общенациональной гражданской войны между военной хунтой и разрозненными группами – национальными и этническими, выступающими против военного правления. Несмотря на все усилия АСЕАН, политический кризис в стране не проявляет никаких признаков разрешения, а напротив, даже усугубляется. Президент Джоко Видодо был вынужден это признать в своем заключительном выступлении. Военное руководство в Нейпьидо тоже понимает всю бесконечную трагичность нынешней ситуации и предпринимает некоторые шаги, которые свидетельствует о том, что Мьянма не хочет изолироваться от АСЕАН.

В статье анализируется характер взаимоотношений между Филиппинами и США после заключения ими нового соглашения о предоставлении американским военным доступа к четырем военным объектам в дополнение к пяти уже имеющимся в соответствии с Соглашением о расширенном оборонном сотрудничестве (EDCA). Для США – это возможность усилить свои позиций в ЮКМ и укрепить военный плацдарм в случае возникновения вооруженного конфликта из-за Тайваня. Для Филиппин расширенное присутствие американских войск может стать более надежным средством сдерживания дальнейших китайских вторжений в воды, на которые претендуют Филиппины. Они также рассчитывают на передачу им более совершенной военной техники для модернизации национальных вооруженных сил. Расширение оборонного сотрудничества с США идет параллельно с углублением военных связей с другими союзниками США, Японией и Австралией, результатом чего может стать создание нового четырехстороннего союза, в котором Филиппины станут важным компонентом возглавляемой США стратегии «интегрированного сдерживания» Китая. В то же время было бы преждевременным делать вывод о том, что Филиппины сделали окончательную ставку на США в продвижении национальных интересов. Экономическое сотрудничество с Китаем является явным приоритетом для руководства Филиппин. Во внешней политике страны могут произойти новые повороты, что подтверждает опыт их взаимодействия со сверхдержавами на протяжении последних двух десятилетий. Филиппины будут пытаться найти компромисс, балансируя между США и Китаем в интересах собственной безопасности, проводя политику хеджирования.

Published: September 2023

Статья рассказывает о Филиппинах как о постоянном объекте гуманитарной помощи в связи с подверженностью страны частым стихийным бедствиям, в основном в виде тайфунов и супертайфунов. На примере недавнего (16 декабря 2021 г.) супертайфуна «Рай» описываются обычные для таких природных катастроф последствия, уровень ущерба и разрушений, причиняемых стихией. Дается анализ работы как местных властей и гуманитарных структур, так и международных гуманитарных организаций, оказывающих помощь филиппинскому населению и филиппинскому правительству в устранении последствий супертайфунов. Приводятся истории очевидцев, людей, непосредственно ставших жертвами тайфуна «Рай», описывается весь спектр трудностей, с которыми пострадавшие от стихии филиппинцы вынуждены справляться как непосредственно сразу после тайфуна, так и на протяжении многих месяцев после него. Кроме того, рассматривается вопрос о том, как текущая политическая ситуация влияет на работу гуманитарных организаций и оказание гуманитарной помощи в целом в мире. Статья проиллюстрирована фотоматериалом, сделанным после тайфуна «Рай».

Данная работа посвящена обзору сведений о русскоязычном населении микронезийского острова Гуам (неинкорпорированная территория США), доступных в электронных СМИ в сети Интернет. Несмотря на то, что количество русскоговорящих на Гуаме исчезающе мало, их образ жизни, динамика их прироста и проблемы, с которыми они сталкиваются, отражают изменения международной обстановки, а также внутриполитической ситуации России и США, произошедшие в последнее десятилетия.
Managing Chinese and Russian healthcare development using a predictive Gray model and an autoregressive relationship model
Authors: He Pingping
Published: September 2023

This article examines the possible risks for health insurance funds due to an ageing population and the prevalence of infectious diseases in the world. By analyzing the structural differences between the existing health insurance funding systems in China and Russia, and using a Gray's model and an autoregressive model to forecast the existing flows of health insurance funds in Russia and China. The results of the forecasting model are then incorporated into a subsequent management model in order to propose optimisations for the future management of health insurance systems in both countries. The novelty of this paper lies not only in the analysis of the structure of the health insurance financing system, but also in the use of a predictive model to propose optimised management decisions for the future development of health insurance. The results provide theoretical support as well as guidance for national health insurance management. The results of the optimized management model for Russian health insurance show that the optimized solution not only improves the financing gap well, but also leaves a balance.

Regional differences in the Russian Federation: An empirical analysis of the influence of terri-torial localization of industry sectors on the level of regional economic activity
Authors: Livchits Veniamin
Published: September 2023

The article is devoted to the problem of high inter-regional differentiation of the economic area of the Russian Federation. The relevance of the research is due to the need to understand the role of the industrial sector in the economic inequality of regions. It is necessary for the systematization of the state regional policy and strategic forecasting of the innovative development of regionally oriented production systems. The purpose of the research was to identify an empirical relationship between the level of economic activity of industrial regions and their sectoral specifics. Based on a large array of statistical data, a long-term increase in the economic inequality of the regions of the Russian Federation and a high level of inter-regional differentiation are shown. During the research, the basic methods of mathematical statistics were used. The regression analysis allowed us to obtain a statistically significant confirmation of the hypothesis: the economic inequality of the regions is largely due to the nature of the industries localized on their territory. Some empirical patterns were also identified and statistically substantiated. It was established that the economy of industrially oriented regions depends mainly on extractive industries: the impact on the economic activity of the regions of the factor of localization of extractive industries is significantly (more than five times) higher than that of manufacturing industries. The results allowed us to conclude that the current trends may lead to further strengthening of inter-regional differentiation of the country's economic space. Also, the current situation entails the threat of deindustrialization of those regions that are now characterized by the concentration of high-tech industries. The research provides additional data support for industrial and structural policy priorities.
HADAMARD COMPOSITION OF SERIES IN SYSTEMS OF FUNCTIONS
Authors: Sheremeta M.
Published: September 2023

For regularly converging in ${\Bbb C}$ series $A_j(z)=\sum\limits_{n=1}^{\infty}a_{n,j}f(\lambda_nz)$, $1\le j\le p$, where $f$ is an entire transcendental function, the asymptotic behavior of a Hadamard composition $A(z)=\break=(A_1*...*A_p)_m(z)=\sum\limits_{n=1}^{\infty} \left(\sum\limits_{k_1+\dots+k_p=m}c_{k_1...k_p}a_{n,1}^{k_1}\cdot...\cdot a_{n,p}^{k_p}\right)f(\lambda_nz)$ of genus m is investigated. The function $A_1$ is called dominant, if $|c_{m0...0}||a_{n,1}|^m \not=0$ and $|a_{n,j}|=o(|a_{n,1}|)$ as $n\to\infty$ for $2\le j\le p$. The generalized order of a function $A_j$ is called the quantity $\varrho_{\alpha,\beta}[A_j]=\break=\varlimsup\limits_{r\to+\infty}\dfrac{\alpha(\ln\,\mathfrak{M}(r,A_j))}{\beta(\ln\,r)}$, where $\mathfrak{M}(r,A_j)=\sum\limits_{n=1}^{\infty} |a_{n,j}|M_f(r\lambda_n)$, $ M_f(r)=\max\{|f(z)|:\,|z|=r\}$ and the functions $\alpha$ and $\beta$ are positive, continuous and increasing to $+\infty$.

Under certain conditions on $\alpha$, $\beta$, $M_f(r)$ and $(\lambda_n)$, it is proved that if among the functions $A_j$ there exists a dominant one, then $\varrho_{\alpha,\beta}[A]=\max\{\varrho_{\alpha,\beta}[A_j]:\,1\le j\le p\}$. In terms of generalized orders, a connection is established between the growth of the maximal terms of power expansions of the functions $(A^{(k)}_1*...*A^{(k)}_p)_m$ and $((A_1*...*A_p)_m)^{(k)}$. Unresolved problems are formulated

In the paper we justify existence and unity $B$-representation of numbers of segment $(0;1)$, which uses as a basis a positive number $a$ that satisfies the condition $0<a<\frac{1}{3}$ in particular the positive root $\tau$ of the equation $x^2+x-1=0$, bilateral sequence $(\Theta_n)$: $\Theta_0=\frac{1-3a}{1-a}$, $\Theta_{-n}=\Theta_n=a^{|n|}$ and alphabet $Z=\{0,\pm 1, \pm 2, \pm, \dots \},$\\
namely
$$x=b_{\alpha_1}+\sum\limits_{k=2}^{m}b_{\alpha_k}\prod\limits_{i=1}^{k-1}\Theta_{\alpha_i}\equiv
\Delta^{B}_{\alpha_1\alpha_2...\alpha_m(\emptyset)},$$
$$x=b_{\alpha_1}+\sum\limits_{k=2}^{\infty}b_{\alpha_k}\prod\limits_{i=1}^{k-1}\Theta_{\alpha_i}\equiv
\Delta^{B}_{\alpha_1\alpha_2...\alpha_n...},$$
where $\alpha_n\in Z$, $\Theta_n>0~\forall n\in Z$, $\sum\limits_{n=-\infty}^{+\infty}\Theta_n=1$,
$b_{n+1}\equiv\sum\limits_{i=-\infty}^{n-1}=b_n+\Theta_n$ $\forall n\in Z$.

The geometry of $B$-representations of numbers is described (geometric content of numbers, properties of cylinder and tail sets, topological and metric properties of sets with restrictions on the use of numbers). The left and right shift operators of numbers are studied, a group of continuous transformations of the unit interval preserving the tails of the $B$-representation of numbers is described.
