«ОСТРОЗЬКИЙ ТРИПТИХ» О. КОЗАРЕНКА: ДОСВІД КОМПОЗИТОРСЬКОЇ ІНТЕРПРЕТАЦІЇ ПРАВОСЛАВНОЇ МОНОДІЇ
Authors: РОМАНЮК Ірина , ЯСТРУБ Олена
Published: November 2023

Заявлена наукова проблема спрямована на дослідження композиторського прочитання форм і жанрів українського богослужбового співу. Феномен православної монодії, що є репрезентантом українського духовного співу на етапі ґенези, привертає увагу митців сьогодення. Актуальність теми зумовлена затребуваністю поглибленого дослідження духовної композиторської спадщини О. Козаренка (1963–2023) з урахуванням її першоджерел, адже наскрізним у доробку митця виявляється звернення до кореневої традиції богослужбового співу – православної монодії. Даний факт є безпрецедентним у композиторській практиці України сьогодення. Окреслена наукова проблема відповідає й актуальному культурно-мистецькому контексту сьогодення, що стосується акапельного хорового мистецтва і репрезентації у виконавському вимірі духовних творів О. Козаренка. Мета наукової статті – розглянути духовний хоровий цикл митця «Острозький триптих» (1994) в аспекті композиторської інтерпретації православної монодії (піснеспівів острозького напіву). Методологія заснована на поєднанні жанрового, стильового, структурно-функціонального, інтерпретаційного, семантичного підходів. Наукова новизна отриманих результатів пов’язана з дослідженням першого духовного хорового твору О. Козаренка в аспекті композиторської інтерпретації православної монодії; виконавської інтерпретації (хорова капела «Трембіта») тощо. У Висновках підсумовані результати дослідження. На прикладі третього номеру циклу «О Тебі радується» розглянуто першоджерело (острозького напіву) як зразка богородичної гимнографії з виокремленням образно-семантичного, музично-стилістичного та композиційно-драматургічний рівнів аналізу. Враховано наявні міжмистецькі зв’язки через приклад іконографічного втілення тексту молитви задостойника (Ікона Пресвятої Богородиці «О Тебі радується»). У композиторському прочитанні О. Козаренка, де майстерно застосовано стилістику партесного письма та принципів співу Києво-Печерської Лаври, визначено першорядність ролі вербального тексту у побудові форми і, відповідно, віхах музичної драматургії: (initio – строфа 1, motus – 2–4 строфа, terminus – строфа 5 і к ода).

Published: November 2023

У статті розглянуто важливе питання щодо формування лідерських якостей підлітків. Проаналізовано поняття лідерства і лідера, визначено, що лідер є найбільш авторитетним членом соціальної групи, який має право на прийняття рішень. Визначено функції та психологічні якості лідера. Обґрунтовано важливість сформованості лідерських здібностей у підлітковому віці у зв’язку з прагненням підлітків до самостійності, незалежності, визнання, поваги та популярності. З’ясовано мотивацію лідерства в підлітків. Виявлено, що одними з найважливіших лідерських характеристик підлітків є комунікативні та організаторські здібності та мотивація досягнень. Сформульовано гіпотезу, що існує зв’язок між лідерськими якостями підлітків, їхньою мотивацією досягнення та комунікативними і організаторськими здібностями. Для її перевірки проведено емпіричне дослідження за допомогою психодіагностичних методик: методика діагностики особистості на мотивацію до успіху Т. Елерса, яка прораховує шанси людини на успіх; «Діагностика лідерських здібностей» (Є. Жарікова, Є. Крушельницькького), яка дозволяє оцінити здатність людини буди лідером; «Оцінка комунікативних і організаторських схильностей – КОС» (В.В. Синявського і Б.О. Федоришина), яка оцінює рівень розвитку комунікативних та організаторських схильностей. Проведено кількісний і якісний аналіз результатів обстежень, побудовані таблиці, з яких видно, якою мірою виражаються досліджувані психологічні явища в обстежуваних. За допомогою кореляційного аналізу виявлено статистично значущий зв’язок між лідерськими здібностями і мотивацією до успіху, а також між лідерськими здібностями та комунікативними й організаторськими схильностями, що підтвердило гіпотезу дослідження. Запропоновано розробку тренінгової програми формування лідерських якостей у підлітків, яка може бути використана шкільним психологами.

Published: November 2023

У статті розглядається поняття психології материнства та сучасне розуміння цього феномена в науковому світі. Проводиться теоретичний аналіз існуючих досліджень на цю тему, виділено основні підходи до проблеми материнства сьогодні у вітчизняному та зарубіжному науковому середовищі. Вивчаються основні етапи формування відносин «мати – дитина», найважливішим з яких є етап вагітності та дитинства, а також саме поняття «материнство» як частина особистісної сфери жінки. Розглядається також вплив факту планування вагітності на формування позитивного емоційного відношення до дитини у матері. Материнство розглядається як органічно пов’язане з матеріальною та духовною культурою народу, традиціями. У цьому аспекті культура є формою трансляції досвіду, а материнство поряд із традицією та за її допомогою виступає механізмом передачі культурних цінностей. Материнство «відображає накопичений народом досвід, вистраждані ним цінності, головні орієнтири та норми спілкування». Ключові положення системно-структурного підходу переконливо доводять, що образ матері є репрезентованим у свідомості проекцією ціннісно-смислових та якісних характеристик материнської поведінки і світосприйняття, представлених на різних рівнях ієрархічно заданої системи відображення – перцептивному, понятійному та амодальному. До кожного рівня відображення образу матері характерні особливості його репрезентації: ідеалізація та заперечення недоліків у своїх матерів (перцептивний рівень), моралізація, повинності, високі соціальні вимоги (понятійний рівень), сприйняття образу (амодальний рівень). Узагальнений образ матері, репрезентований у свідомості українців, представлений конгломератом ціннісно-смислових й інструментальних (вони забезпечують ефективну взаємодію з оточуючими та передусім з дітьми) характеристик.

Authors: Naqavi Fatemeh , Engström Emma , Franklin Joel P.
Published: November 2023

Stockholm established time-varying congestion pricing in 2007, and adopted a toll exemption as a temporary incentive for green vehicles (GVs) that ended in 2012. We examine the behavioral effects of phasing out the exemption by studying the change in cordon crossing events for GV morning commuters between May 2012 and May 2013, with a random sample of conventional vehicles (CVs) as control. The results suggest i) a significant drop in the total number of crossings; ii) a slight shift towards later journeys in the morning; and iii) a reduction in the ratio of peak-toll period crossings to other ones.

Published: November 2023

This article conducts a comprehensive study and generalisation of the essence of financial statement audit. The main attention is paid to determining the place of financial statement audit in the context of enterprise management in the current economic environment. The study found that the financial statements of an enterprise are designed to meet the information needs of its users, and each element of the statements performs functions that provide information in a certain context. The article analyses the procedures for auditing financial statements that meet its purpose, depending on the elements of financial statements. The possible risks that enterprises may face as a result of not conducting an audit of financial statements are identified. In particular, it was found that failure to audit financial statements may affect internal and external decisions of enterprises, such as investment planning, lending and management decision-making. The study showed that neglecting the frequency of financial statement audits can also lead to losses and financial instability, which can expose companies to financial fraud, illegal actions and uncontrolled risks. According to the results obtained in the course of the study, a specific algorithm of actions has been developed that should be performed by the auditor when checking compliance with the conditions for preparing financial statements by enterprises. The proposed algorithm is aimed at improving the quality of financial statements, simplifying the process of making management decisions and promoting sustainable development of enterprises in Ukraine. The results of the study include an analysis of the methods of collecting audit evidence and their significance for the audit of financial statements. The study showed that in an unstable economic environment, the audit of financial statements is becoming increasingly important, as it addresses global issues related to the reliability of accounting and reporting, analysis of the causes of possible inconsistencies between these statements and the real state of the enterprise, as well as control over the efficiency of financial and economic activities.

Authors: Hladchuk Olha , Marych Maksym
Published: November 2023

This article is devoted to the consideration of current trends in the functioning of state-owned banks in Ukraine. The main internal and external problems faced by Ukrainian banking institutions, including state ones, with the beginning of a large-scale invasion and military aggression, are identified. The nationalization and liquidation of banks operating profitably in Ukraine (in particular Alfa-Bank JSC), which was carried out for the first time due to political factors caused by the war, is described. The owners of such banks were citizens of the aggressor country, were under sanctions and could negatively affect the stability of the Ukrainian banking sector.The strategic goals of state banks during the period of martial law and post-war economic recovery are given. The main performance indicators of state-owned banks have been analyzed for the last time. It is noted that state banks attract more than half of all deposits from clients of the country's banking sector, but they invest the majority of their assets in state securities, thus minimizing the risks of their own active operations and helping to finance state budget projects. State banks are leaders in the implementation of state preferential programs, in particular, «Affordable loans 5–7–9%» and «eOselya», which help restore credit and investment financing of economic development processes. The share of state banks in the country's banking sector in various areas of their activity has been determined. The possibilities and potential contribution of state-owned banks to the post-war recovery of the Ukrainian economy are described. It is the state banks that are the leaders in the market of banking services in Ukraine, which enable the state authorities in the extremely difficult conditions of the war to react quickly and implement the necessary changes in the work of the banking sector, with the aim of stabilizing it and influencing the dynamics of monetary policy in the country. Ukrainian state banks work according to a universal business model and cover customer service of all market segments, but potentially they should become state development banks that will contribute to economic growth and sustainable development of our country.

Policy of academic and research integrity in the conditions of the AI revolution: formula of interaction
Authors: Panukhnyk Olena
Published: November 2023

The article focuses on the interpretation of the conceptual and categorical apparatus of the terms «academic integrity» and «research integrity» in the context of the revolutionary influence of artificial intelligence on them. The main legal framework and regulatory documents of the legislation of Ukraine, which regulate the process of ensuring academic and research integrity at the national level, are analyzed. The arguments were advanced in favour that academic integrity and research consciousness are important competitive advantages of an educational or scientific institution, and also reflect the strength of one's own reputation in the market of educational services. The article presents the main aspects of compliance with the principles of professional honesty and morality with the use of artificial intelligence tools by educators and scientists in order to obtain a high-quality and ethical result. It is highlighted that AI tools can still be considered from two popularized positions in general – scientific skepticism and dogmatic knowledge, when either legitimate help and simplification of processes in the educational and scientific environment is broadcast, or there is promotion of deception, plagiarism and manipulation by their participants. The research proved the importance of creating conditions for preventing and further eliminating manifestations of academic and research dishonesty in scientific circles at the national and local levels, which include the generation of comfortable conditions in the environment in order to observe the principles of public morality by the participants; reducing the authorities' powers to ensure and check the quality of education; statistical registration of the facts of detection of unethical behavior in the field of academic and research integrity; implementation of measures to prevent plagiarism among young people at the level of educational institutions; creation and development of repositories with databases of academic and scientific texts of participants in the educational and scientific environment, as well as propaganda among educators and young scientists in the midst of the information era of the culture of combating the main forms of violations in scientific circles in order to form a new conscious civil society with traits of honesty, ethics, morality, transparency, objectivity and trust.

The article reveals the process of transformation of national traditions in the conditions of wartime and post-war Ukrainian society, as well as periodic changes in the scientific paradigms of its development. The role and place in these transformations of various forms of social activity, including scientific activity, are determined. The influence of science on the formation of public consciousness is studied, taking into account the influence of objective factors. The processes and methods of governance due to the post-Soviet traditions of voluntaristic lobbying for the interests of certain political groups, industry professionals, regionalists, i.e. stakeholders, are considered. The author analyzes the motives that guide the subjects of scientific interaction, depending on the level of their knowledge of the subject of research, important resources, etc. The sources of growth of the intellectual potential of the modern paradigm of science development and imitation of activities useful for society, stimulation of artificial needs, accompanied by exponential growth, crisis phenomena in a number of important spheres of society's life, are identified. The necessity of changing the paradigm of development, national and scientific traditions formed in the post-totalitarian period and reorienting them to the advanced development of productive cultural capital is established. The importance of defining long-term goals, developing strategies for their achievement and transferring national traditions from a reflexive response to problems and changes in consumer demand to making effective management decisions is actualized. The author proposes the formation the Moral Code of Behavior of scientist as a set of actions in accordance with the fastest possible achievement of the set goal with the most effective result. The article reveals the destructive content of neglecting the development of highly moral, humanistic scientific traditions based on the principles of truth, objectivity, historicism, scientific substantiation and reorientation not only to material goods, but also to the development of people's cultural potential. The characteristic features of manifestations of transformational, destructive and degradation processes in the state are identified.

In Bangladesh, the second wave of Covid-19 was devastating. Mostly RT-PCR is used to determine the Covid-19 infection. But when test results are delayed, or when there is a clinical suspicion of Covid-19 despite initial negative RT-PCR testing, CT scan of chest was used to detect Covid-19 and Covid-19 severity. This observational cross-sectional study was carried out at Corona dedicated ICU of Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical College Hospital, Faridpur during February to June, 2021 to observe the HRCT severity score of the patient and its correlation with different ages. A total of 50 patients with clinically suspected Covid-19 cases who were admitted to the Corona dedicated ICU were included in the study. The chest HRCT images of study participants was gathered, CT severity score was calculated by a particular assignment radiologist. Based on this score; Severe disease was mainly seen in the >60 year age group (50%). A significant moderate positive correlation was observed between age and CT chest severity score. With the increasing age the patients were suffering more and being male may increase the risk and put the patient to get admitted in the ICU, and as an alternative of the RT-PCR, CT scan of chest could be useful.

This cross sectional type of observation study was conducted in the department of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University of Bangladesh to determine the etiology and outcome of hepatic encephalopathy in Bangladeshi children. Patients between 1 to 18 years were included who fulfilled the West Heaven clinical criteria of hepatic encephalopathy. The data were collected and recorded questionnaire after IRB approval and was analyzed accordingly. Total 32 patients were included in this study; among which 20 were males and 12 were female with a mean age was 8.1±3.5 years. The most common etiologies were Wilson disease (47%), followed by cryptogenic (25%) and Hepatitis A virus (18.8%). Total 9 patients out of 32 were expired, another 8 got discharge with advice, 1 patient recovered after liver transplantation and others were improved with advice of follow up. All the patients were expired who developed hepatic encephalopathy due to Hepatitis A virus except one patient who received liver transplantation from abroad. This study highlights that hepatic encephalopathy from infective diseases as hepatitis A virus leads higher mortality rate in children. Though liver transplantation facility is not available in the developing countries, maintenance of hygiene and vaccination is the main preventive measures to reduce the mortality in children.

Management of distal tibial extra-articular fractures presents a significant challenge in orthopedic practice due to their complex anatomical features and variable fracture patterns. Surgical intervention plays a crucial role in achieving stable fixation and optimal functional outcomes. This study aimed to compare the effectiveness between minimally invasive percutaneous plate osteosynthesis and intramedullary nailing for the management of distal tibial extra-articular fractures. This was a prospective observational study that was conducted in the Department of Orthopedics, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical College, Hospital (BSMMCH), Faridpur, Bangladesh from January 2021 to December 2022. Total 24 patients having a fracture of the distal third of the tibia were enrolled in this study as the study subjects. Total patients were divided into two groups. In group A, 12 patients underwent minimally invasive percutaneous plate osteosynthesis (MIPPO) and in group B, 12 patients underwent intramedullary nailing (IMN). A random selection method was used in sample selection. According to Olerud Molander’s score, Excellent, Good and Fair results were found in 50%, 50%, and 0% of the group A patients respectively. On the other hand, those results were found in 42%, 50% and 8% of group B patients respectively. Although both minimally invasive percutaneous plate osteosynthesis and intramedullary nailing procedures are effective in managing distal tibial extra-articular fractures, considering excellent union rate, low blood loss and remarkable Olerud Molander’s score, MIPPO may be considered as the better option.

Thalassemia is an inherited blood disorder characterized by decreased hemoglobin production resulting in anemia. Patients with transfusion dependent thalassemia (TDT) develop iron overload due to regular blood transfusion. This excess iron is deposited in the tissue and causes organ failure which may lead to hypocalcaemia and hyperphosphatemia. This study was done to measure serum total calcium, serum inorganic phosphate and serum ferritin levels in adult male patients with TDT. This cross sectional study was carried out from 01 March 2018 to 28 February 2019 in Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University, Dhaka. Thirty five consecutive male patients with TDT of 18 to 40 year were selected from the outpatient department (OPD) of Transfusion Medicine and Hematology. For comparison, 35 age matched apparently healthy male subjects were selected on the basis of selection criteria. Serum total calcium, serum inorganic phosphate, serum ferritin, serum albumin, serum alkaline phosphatase and serum creatinine levels were measured by colorimetric method using automated analyzer. For statistical analysis independent sample t-test was done using SPSS version 16. Serum total calcium level was significantly (p<0.001) lower, serum inorganic phosphate and serum ferritin level was significantly (p<0.001) higher in patients with TDT than that of healthy control. In addition, 1 (2.86%) TDT patient had hypocalcaemia and 12 (34.29%) had hyperphosphatemia. In conclusion of this study, serum total calcium level decreased and serum inorganic phosphate and serum ferritin level increased in patients with TDT.

Rectal cancer is the one the common cancer in Faridpur, Bangladesh. The clinical course of patient treated with surgery alone has been characterized by a high death rate and also by the pain and disability associate with pelvic recurrence of the tumor. Adjuvant chemotherapy combined with radiation has been studied for prevention of such reoccurrence. Most of the patients at our center are those who have already been in subjected to surgery in this hospital or other private hospital in this district or other district hospital. We studied role of Oxaliplatin and Capcitabine with Radiotherapy in AJCC stage IIB to IIIC locally advanced rectal cancer and toxicities in adjuvant settings. This study was done to assess the outcome of adjuvant chemoradiation in operated locally advanced treated cancer patients. A total of 30 patients were included in between June 2016 to June 2019 in non-randomized clinical trial. About 66.6% of the patient underwent low anterior resection and 33.3% had abdominoperineal resection. Patients were treated postoperatively with Oxaliplatin and capcitabine. Radiotherapy of 45 Gy in 20 fractions were delivered in concurrently with Capcitabine 825 mg/m2 from day 1 to day 5 of Radiotherapy at National Institute of Cancer Research and Hospital, Mohakhali, Dhaka, median follow-up was 3 years. At 3 years overall survival of operated patient was 66.3% with no disease relapse. Toxicities of this schedule were mostly Anemia and Gastrointestinal mucocitis but without treatment interruption. Combination of adjuvant chemotherapy and radiotherapy is effective modality in reducing local tumour recurrence and improves survival.

Hypertension is a condition which is usually not common in neonates. If hypertension can be detected early in neonates it is possible to decrease morbidity and mortality in future by taking appropriate measures. This cross sectional study was carried out in two tertiary care hospitals to find out the prevalence of hypertension in neonates. Study period was from July, 2017 to June 2018. To determine the prevalence of neonatal hypertension, 600 neonates were included. Blood pressure was measured by using neonatal cuff; on three occasions at same visit at least 5 minutes interval while neonates were quiet and awake. Out of the 600 neonates only two had hypertension (0.33%). Both hypertensive neonates were male and detected in Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU). The prevalence of hypertension in term and preterm neonates were 0.57% and 0.23% respectively. Paired samples test of blood pressure of neonates showed significant value with birth weight in kg and gestational age in weeks. Linear regression showed increase blood pressure with increasing gestational age of neonates. In this study 95% of neonates had blood pressure at or lower than reference value. It can be concluded from the present study that early diagnosis of hypertension during neonatal period will help to control childhood hypertension and prevent future morbidity and mortality.

When Capitalism and Diversity Collide: African American Employment in the Clothing and Accessories Retail Trade in Washington State
Authors: Knox Jordan Lucas
Published: November 2023

Discussions of African American’s current industrial and business endeavors in the clothing and accessories retail trade in Washington State must be grounded in historical context. The social, political, and economic experiment that has come to be known as the United States of America would not exist without the labor of enslaved Africans, whose work laid the very foundation for the development of this country. Moreover, the economic pursuits of present-day African Americans are inextricably linked to the brutal subjugation of their ancestors, as well as the inequitable conditions they continued to experience after slavery was abolished, many of which still exist today. While the concept of race is a relatively new phenomenon in world history, atonement for the descendants of enslaved Africans may be necessary to achieve a post-racial future.
