Published: January 2025

Essentialism is a philosophical school that emphasizes the existence of an essence or essential core in every object, concept, or entity. This school argues that every individual or entity has basic characteristics that determine its identity, which are independent of social context or external changes. Essentialist education includes science, art and everything related to human will. The aim of this research is to determine the influence and implications of essentialism in emphasizing local cultural values, the importance of basic knowledge, and character education which has a positive impact on students' development in facing the challenges of everyday life. The data collection method used was by collecting literature studies in the form of journals and interviewing elementary school teachers at Runiah School to gain a deep understanding of the implications of essentialism in the culture of education in elementary schools. The results of research on essentialism in education encourage the integration of cultural values, basic knowledge including subjects subjects such as mathematics, science, and language. The essentialism approach has a main focus on building student character. There are advantages and disadvantages to this essentialism school. Through this approach, students can develop positive attitudes and good behavior in everyday life while understanding and appreciating the cultural diversity around them and essentialism encouraging the integration of local cultural values, such as mutual cooperation activities, social responsibility, and respect for parents, into the educational curriculum.
Analisis Framing Dan Retorika dalam Teks Pidato Menteri Luar Negeri RI Terkait Isu Kemanusiaan di Palestina Tahun 2024
Authors: Pratama Raditya Aryasatya
Published: January 2025

This study focuses on the analysis of rhetoric and framing in the speeches of the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Indonesia, Retno Marsudi, delivered at two major international forums in 2024, namely the United Nations Security Council Open Debate and the International Court of Justice. Using a qualitative approach grounded in the interpretive paradigm, this research employs Ibnu Hamad's framing analysis to understand how the Minister of Foreign Affairs constructs discourse related to humanitarian issues in Palestine. Pathos rhetoric serves as a key element in the speech text, used to evoke the audience's emotions and influence their perception of human rights issues in the Israel-Palestine conflict. The analysis results reveal that Minister Retno Marsudi’s speeches highlight verbal and non-verbal symbols that reinforce Indonesia's solidarity with Palestine. The use of emotional language, quotes from Israeli officials, and symbolic attributes like the keffiyeh support the framing aimed at portraying Israel as the primary perpetrator of humanitarian crimes. Strategic fact presentation is also employed to emphasize the United Nations Security Council's failure to enforce resolutions against Israel. Priming is conducted by selecting critical moments to maximize the audience's attention to the delivered message. This study provides valuable insights into the effectiveness of humanitarian diplomacy through state speeches. However, the effectiveness of the pathos rhetoric used needs further examination by observing the audience's direct responses. This research is expected to contribute to the development of political communication studies, particularly in the context of framing and rhetoric in state speech texts.

Decolonisation of the Mind and the Problem of the San Ethnic Minorities in Botswana
Authors: Chebanne Anderson
Published: January 2025

The San—that is, the Khoisan languages speakers of Botswana—being an ethnic minority, are facing numerous problems due to the linguistic, cultural, economic, and political domination by the mainline Botswana society. As they are forced to transition from a hunter-gatherer mode of life, socio-political and economic dynamics also do not favour them. This paper seeks to critically analyse the position of the San in Botswana and demonstrate the need to decolonize the mind in order to free the San, who are reeling under linguistic and cultural dependence. Dependence is formed in part because more educated people enter into land deals to exploit natural resources with TNCs, with rural populations living in these territories. It is shown that the San communities are highly endangered both socially and linguistically. These dramatic phenomena are taking place now, in post-colonial, independent Africa. The theories that are employed in this research help to critically analyse the social conditions that the San find themselves in in Botswana. The paper further argues that the San are in almost a similar situation that other African societies were in during the rule of European imperialism. It is demonstrated in this paper that, without mind decolonisation, the imposition of the developmental power and the socio-political hegemony of the mainline society exerted on the San people can lead to sad consequences. There is therefore an imperative need for decolonising the mind for the ethnic linguistic minority to be liberated.
Hubble Invariance and Modification of Newtonian Mechanics
Authors: Wang Zheng-Guang
Published: January 2025

A new physical quantity, scale factor, is defined. A new symmetry transformation, Hubble transformation, is derived. It is pointed out that if Ł is an existing law of physics, then Ł is suitable for the objects whose scale factor is 1. It is proved that for any existing law of physics Ł, Ł is suitable for the objects whose scale factor is not 1, if and only if Ł has Hubble invariance. The laws which belong to Newtonian mechanics and have not Hubble invariance are modified. The Newtonian mechanics which is suitable for the objects whose scale factor is any value is obtained.
So different yet so alike? Political collective narcissism predicts blatant dehumanization of political outgroups among conservatives and liberals.

Published: January 2025

Previous research found that political polarization goes hand in hand with being strongly identified with a political ingroup. In this research, we assumed this should be the case only among those who identify with their political ingroup in a narcissistic way (stemming from frustrated needs and predicting outgroup hostility). This hypothesis was tested in one experimental (Study 4, n = 525) and three cross‐sectional (Study 1, n = 320; Study 2, n = 316; Study 3, n = 500) studies conducted among American and Polish participants. In all studies, we found a consistent positive link between political narcissism, but not political identification, and the blatant dehumanization of political outgroups. This relationship held over and above metadehumanization, measured in Studies 2 and 3. In Studies 3 and 4, we additionally found that political narcissism may also predict aggressive inclinations towards political outgroups, measured with the voodoo doll task. These findings suggest that differentiation between political narcissism and political identification may help to better understand the psychological underpinnings of political polarizatio
A Big Data Analysis of the Associations Between Cognitive Parameters and Socioeconomic Outcomes
Authors: von Krause Mischa , Radev Stefan T.
Published: January 2025

Evidence accumulation models allow researchers to estimate a set of cognitive parameters fromempirical response times and accuracy data. These parameters can quantify individual differencesand index, for example, a person’s mental speed or decision caution in a cognitive task. Recently,researchers have become interested in how these parameters might be related to other measuresof individual differences, particularly cognitive abilities. Higher estimates of mental speed, asindexed by the drift rate parameter, are linked to higher cognitive ability scores which, in turn,can predict key socioeconomic outcomes (e.g., educational attainment). Yet, we know very lit-tle about how evidence accumulation model parameters relate to real-life outcomes. To addressthis gap, we explore the associations between evidence accumulation model parameters and threesocioeconomic outcomes—educational attainment, income, and job prestige—in a large onlineimplicit association test sample. Our analysis allowed us to extract small, yet stable associationsbetween cognitive parameters and socioeconomic outcomes from a task with relatively few exper-imental trials. Surprisingly, drift rate variability indexing trial-by-trial stability of mental speedemerged as the strongest predictor of socioeconomic outcomes. Variability parameters have beenlargely overlooked in studies of individual differences, and our exploratory results suggest promis-ing directions for research on higher moments of cognitive variables. Our study also highlightsthe utility of model-based big data approaches that have only recently become practically feasiblethrough advances at the intersection of deep learning and statistics.
The Energy Resistance Principle
Authors: Picard Martin
Published: January 2025

Living organisms are physical-energetic systems that must obey simple principles guiding energy transformation across physical and temporal scales. The Energy Resistance Principle (ERP) accounts for the behavior and transformation of energy in the wet, carbon-based matrix of biology. We show how energy resistance (éR) is the fundamental property that enables transformation, converting the unformed energy potential of food into useful work that counteracts entropy and sustains life. But excessive éR leads to dissipative loss and bioenergetic inefficiency, reductive and oxidative stress, inflammation, molecular damage and information loss. The hallmarks of disease and aging all arise from excessive éR. The ERP shows how too much of a good thing becomes deleterious. We show how stressors elevate éR, whereas sleep, exercise, and restorative interventions promote healing to minimize éR. Health and well-being then emerge as the optimization of energy resistance. The ERP is a general framework for discovering the modifiable forces that shape development, aging, and the dynamic health-disease continuum.

Aim: Open science (OS) practices aim to make scientific research more accessible, collaborative, sharable, inclusive, transparent, and reproducible. Educational interventions could be valuable in promoting these practices among researchers. As such, our study aims to assess the efficacy of an educational intervention in increasing early career researchers' adherence to OS practices (study registration, open methods, data sharing, open results) in dentistry. Methods: A cluster-randomized controlled trial will be carried out. All PhD students from a convenience sample of 20 Brazilian dental graduate programs will be invited to participate signing the informed consent. The clusters will be randomized in intervention (n=10) and control (n=10) groups. The participants allocated to the intervention will receive an intensive course addressing OS and Responsible Research Practices (RRPs) while the control group will participate in another course addressing Artificial Intelligence in Dentistry. The intervention will be an online interactive course, made available in video format with the participation of professors and researchers, including 75 hours of lectures, workshops, and supporting materials focusing on how to bring more integrity, rigor, and transparency to scientific work using OS principles. The number of OS practices (published as open access or preprint, protocol registration, data sharing, code sharing, disclosure of conflicts of interest, and disclosure of funding sources) adopted by the participants will be collected two and five years after the end of the intervention. An online self-administered questionnaire will collect their perceptions about the OS practices. Outcomes: The primary outcome will be the Open Science Score calculated for each published paper by the participants 2 and 5 years of the end of the intervention. OS practices adopted in the participants’ thesis will be collected and analyzed as a secondary outcome 5 years after the end of the intervention. Other secondary outcomes include the differences in scores on a survey measuring perceptions about OS practices between the intervention and control groups, measured after the course ended.
New Weighted Sum of Gray Gases (WSGG) Models for Radiation Calculation in Carbon Capture Simulations: Evaluation and Different Implementation Techniques
Authors: Marzouk Osama Ahmed , Huckaby E. David
Published: January 2025

We apply several weighted sum of gray gases models (WSGGMs) to calculate the radiative absorption coefficient for gas mixtures containing H2O and CO2. Our main objectives are to analyze and compare four WSGGMs which have been recently developed for oxy-fuel combustion. The models are compared with the widely-used air-fuel WSGGM of Smith et al. In addition to direct comparison of the absorption coefficients, we compare finite-volume solutions of the radiative equation of transfer in a 2m x 2m x 4m box with a specified inhomogeneous temperature field and a homogeneous mixture of the H2O, CO2 and N2. Calculations using a spectral line-based WSGGM (SLW) are used as a reference solution to estimate the accuracy. For each WSGGM, we apply two interpolation methods for determining the model coefficients at arbitrary H2O-to-CO2 ratios. For wet-recycle oxy-fuel combustion, we found that the deviation of the air-fuel WSGGM was not significantly larger than several of the newer models. However, with dry recycle (90 vol%-CO2) the air-fuel WSGGM model underpredicts the radiative flux and radiative heat source in contrast to the other models which overpredict these fields. Piecewise linear interpolation consistently improves the predictions of the air-fuel WSGGM, but only has a modest effect on the predictions of the oxy-fuel WSGGM's.
Widely variable granite production from a restitic metasedimentary terrane by volatile redistribution
Authors: Stepanov Aleksandr , Weinberg Roberto , Mayne Matthew , Jiang Shao-Yong
Published: January 2025

The amount of melt extracted from a metasedimentary source is a major parameter in quantitative models of crustal processes; however, quantification of melt volume is thwarted by the heterogeneity of the crust and a lack of estimates concerning the amount of fluid present. We observe that highly systematic trends in metasedimentary rocks allow treatment of protoliths as two component mixtures, which, coupled with mass balance and minimization by a residuals function, permit development of a general algorithm for quantification of melt loss and protolith composition based on the composition of the restitic rocks. The utilization of anhydrous compositions results in melt loss estimates independent of volatile phase, and particularly suitable for demonstration of the role of fluid. The application of this method to restites of the Mount Stafford complex in Australia reveals melt loss with unprecedent detail, and shows that melt loss from rocks of the same metamorphic grade was highly variable from negligible to 70 wt%. The melting mechanism in the complex changed from fluid saturated near the solidus, to fluid fluxed at higher temperatures, and fluid deficient in adjacent rocks. Heterogeneous melt productivity was caused by the redistribution of fluids generated by muscovite breakdown during heating. The overall melt productivity of mid-crustal melting was remarkably high and volume of extracted granitic melt perhaps was similar to the volume of restite.
Personal climate actions in a popular smartphone app
Authors: Dablander Fabian , Nielsen Kristian Steensen , Bauer Jan Michael , Basconi Laura , Brick Cameron
Published: January 2025

Smartphone apps hold significant potential to encourage and measure personal climate action at scale. Using global data from the AWorld app, we analysed 139 self-reported actions from 4,369 users (1,088,258 logged actions) to investigate which actions are reported, the temporal patterns, and the relationship with self-reported carbon footprint. The reported action set for a given user is moderately stable over time. Users reported easily repeatable actions most frequently, such as walking or turning off lights, which tend to have modest impacts on greenhouse gas emissions. We found no strong evidence linking the frequency of reported actions to the users' annual self-reported carbon footprints, except in the food domain, or psychological factors such as climate concern. Our study underscores the promise of climate action apps for studying personal climate actions at scale, while also highlighting challenges in evaluating their effectiveness in behavioural change studies. We discuss how these challenges can be overcome.
Is there an association between frequency of Home Mathematical Activities (HMA) and Children’s Mathematical Outcomes? Data Harmonisation and Secondary Analyses of UK-based Datasets.

Published: January 2025

Early mathematical skills lay an important foundation for later academic success.Substantial variation in mathematical skills can be observed in young children andthese differences have been related to family socioeconomic circumstances (SEC).The type and frequency with which parents engage in home mathematical activities(HMA’s) with their children has been suggested as a key mechanism explaininginequalities in early mathematical skills, they may also be a potential target to narrowattainment gaps. However, evidence for the relation between HMA’s and mathematicalskills, and whether there is an SEC gradient in HMA engagement, remains mixed. Inthe present, pre-registered study, we conducted harmonisation and latent profileanalyses on nine UK-based datasets (containing n= 969 dyads; mean child age=46.83(SD= 5.41) months; child age range 35-69 months). These analyses identifiedthree profiles based on the frequency of engaging in HMA’s (i.e., low, intermediate,high). Children in the high HMA category had significantly higher mathematical skillsthan those in the intermediate and low categories. While SEC correlated withmathematical skills, no SEC differences were found in engagement with HMA’s. Thissuggests that families that engage in a higher frequency of HMA’s have children thattend to have higher mathematical skills, but SEC does not predict engagement withHMA’s. We discuss the implications of these findings for narrowing early attainmentgaps and how to best measure and capture the home mathematical learningenvironment.

The rapid expansion of research literature makes capturing all relevant studies for systematic reviews and meta-analyses increasingly challenging. Traditional search methods are time-intensive and heavily reliant on manual screening, yet more modern machine-aided strategies may also miss certain studies. This paper explores a collaborative, open-source approach for blending both approaches to identify all relevant literature up to the “last relevant paper” for a systematic review of post-traumatic stress symptom (PTSS) trajectories. We compared the results from eight search strategies, including conventional database searches, snowballing, full-text searches via the Dimensions database, and machine-aided methods of semantic vectorization with cosine similarity matching via the OpenAlex database. Thereafter, we combined human screening efforts with active learning–aided screening plus a large language model (LLMs) based quality check. In total, 3.822 records were added on top of the 6.701 records identified with replicating the initial search. Machine-aided methods found papers overlooked by traditional techniques—particularly papers missing conventional keywords, published in unindexed journals, or featuring unconventional phrasing. The human-AI screening approach resulted in 127 relevant studies. Active learning and LLMs were used to increase the quality of the labels, with both methods adding relevant papers overlooked by the human screeners. In conclusion, our findings also make it evident that even with exhaustive effort and sophisticated technologies, there remains the possibility that certain papers will still be missed. The evolving nature of academic publishing, varying terminologies, and publication delays mean that the pursuit of the "last relevant paper" is inherently a never-ending process.
Robustness Report: A Bayesian Multiverse Analysis of the Water Tasting Experiment
Authors: Hoogeveen Suzanne
Published: January 2025

The current Report assesses the robustness of the evidence for a preference of Chaudfontaine over tap water (Wagenmakers & Bartoš, 2025) through a Bayesian multiverse analysis. Varying data inclusion criteria and prior settings, we found that 93.8% (45/48) of the analysis paths resulted in evidence in favor of the hypothesis. At the same timeHowever, only one third (17/48) of the paths indicated strong evidence, all based on a small subset of the data. We therefore conclude that the claim that people prefer Chaudfontaine water over tap water lacks robust evidence in this particular experiment.
Predictive structure emerges during generalisation of kin terms to new referents
Authors: Hallam Maisy , Jordan Fiona , Kirby Simon , Smith Kenny
Published: January 2025

Despite crosslinguistic diversity in how kin relations map to terminology, there are constraints on which kin may be categorised together. But what are the constraints on kin term variation, and where do they come from? One proposed constraint is internal co-selection -- an evolutionary process where terminological changes in one generation of kin co-occur with parallel changes in other generations. This results in kin terms which are predictable on the basis of other kin terms, a property we call predictive structure. To determine the strength of this constraint, we measured the predictive structure of systems of kinship terminology from 1135 languages. We found that kinship systems exhibit a significant degree of predictive structure, and we argue that its prevalence reflects a pressure for simplicity. We expected that this pressure would be imposed during the generalisation of known kin terms to new referents, and we tested this claim using an artificial kin term generalisation task. Our results suggest that generalisation of kin terms does indeed favour predictive structure, but that people's preference for predictive structure faces interference from other pressures to distinguish kin by features like gender.
Some (Wittgensteinian) Remarks on the Ethics of Artificial Intelligence
Authors: Cerkovnik Borut
Published: January 2025

I argue in favor of a distinction between human understanding and machine “understanding”. Based on Wittgenstein’s view on machines and his considerations on understanding, I aim to demonstrate that no machine with artificial intelligence can reach functional equality with human beings. In particular, this also holds for ethical praxis because it consists of an extremely blurred net of language– games, guided by ethical rules. Therefore, a machine can never have the human ability (disposition) to act ethically and cannot be a moral agent.
The Development of Interreligious Dialogue in Slovenia
Authors: Trontelj Nik
Published: January 2025

In Slovenia, the development of interreligious dialogue between the Catholic Church and non–Christian religions was inspired mostly by the fundamental theologians of the Faculty of Theology in Ljubljana. In accordance with the Vatican II vision, they have been preparing students for dialogue for over a half century and have themselves also been involved in dialogical activities. In this way, they have shaped the character of Catholic scholars in Slovenia significantly — both of the clergy and the laity — who in the course of their education have learned the meaning of Christian dialogue with other religions. However, lecturers of fundamental theology not only lectured on dialogue but also lived it in their own circumstances. They were responsible for dialogue with non–believers, especially in respect to ecumenical and interreligious dialogue. Dialogue with the Muslims who are present in relatively large numbers in Slovenia (approximately 5%) has been particularly fruitful.
Ukinuće Družbe Isusove

Ukidanje Družbe Isusove u 18. stoljeću i danas potiče na promišljanje uzroka toga događaja, inspiriranoga i realiziranoga djelovanjem suprotstavljenih vizija Crkve i društva, i arhaičnih i progresivnih. Izraz je ambicija vladara za apsolutnom vlašću, kao i nemoći papinstva u očuvanju najaktivnije institucije Crkve. Dvije nasuprotne struje vremena: jansenizam i prosvjetiteljstvo bile su udružene u ozloglašavanju i progonu isusovaca. Rad želi predstaviti neke vidike toga procesa, kao i ulogu pape Klementa XIV. iz perspektive odmaka od dva i pol stoljeća.
Added Worker Effects in Canada: The Effect of Spousal Job Loss on Transitions into Employment
Authors: Ferrer Ana , Pan Yazhuo (Annie) , Schirle Tammy
Published: January 2025

Nous examinons les effets de travailleurs supplémentaires au Canada à l'aide de l'Enquête sur la population active. À la marge extensive, nous notons que les femmes qui n'ont pas d'emploi sont plus susceptibles de se trouver un emploi au cours du mois suivant la perte d'emploi de leur conjoint.e. La perte d'emploi du/de la conjoint.e n'a pas d'effet sur la transition des femmes vers l'emploi au cours des prochains mois et on ne note pas d'effet significatif pour les hommes. Les effets ne semblent pas représenter une réponse comportementale à la mise à pied imprévue ou exogène du/de la conjoint.e. Plutôt, les femmes qui sont les plus susceptibles d'obtenir et de quitter un emploi ont un.e conjoint.e qui est plus susceptible de faire l'objet d'un licenciement prévu par la famille, et elles sont prêtes à réagir. L'effet de travailleur supplémentaire est plus prononcé lorsqu'il s'agit de femmes plus éduquées, de propriétaires de maison et lorsque le salaire du/de la conjoint.e est plus élevé. À la marge intensive, nous ne notons pas de changement significatif dans les heures travaillées par les personnes ayant un emploi, lorsque leur conjoint.e a été licencié.e.
HOLOMORPHIC FUNCTIONAL CALCULUS APPROACH TO THE CHARACTERISTIC FUNCTION OF QUANTUM OBSERVABLES
Authors: Boukas Andreas
Published: January 2025

We show how Cauchy’s Integral Formula and the ideas of Dunford’s Holomorphic Functional Calculus (for unbounded operators) can be used to compute the Vacuum Characteristic Function (Quantum Fourier Transform) of quantum random variables defined as self-adjoint operators on L2(R,C). We consider in detail several quantum observables defined in terms of the position and momentum operators X, P, respectively, on L2(R,C).
BERNOULLI CONVOLUTION OF THE DEPTH OF NODES IN RECURSIVE TREES WITH GENERAL AFFINITIES
Authors: Nakata Toshio , Mahmoud Hosam
Published: January 2025

It has been reported that the depth of insertion of nodes in recursive trees grown with certain node affinities can be represented as a sum of independent Bernoulli random variables. In this investigation, we demonstrate that the presence of a Bernoulli convolution covers a much broader range of affinities beyond the uniform affinity and the power weights reported in the literature. Further, we pursue sufficient conditions to have associated normal regimes and compare them to approximations via Poisson distributions. We give several illustrative examples, where we look at the rates of convergence, too.

Published: January 2025

Las prácticas profesionales en el posgrado constituyen un mecanismo que favorece la articulación del proceso de formación con las necesidades de los sectores de la sociedad, lo que genera beneficios tangibles para el alumnado y para las instituciones con las que colaboran. El objetivo de este estudio es analizar las características de las prácticas profesionales desarrolladas mediante la vinculación social como parte de un posgrado en educación. La investigación fue de corte cuantitativo de alcance descriptivo; el conjunto de datos fue analizado con la técnica de análisis de contenido. Se encontró que la práctica profesional desarrollada por los maestrandos permitió identificar necesidades prioritarias relativas a la formación del profesorado, así como al interés y motivación del alumnado que conforma las comunidades educativas con las cuales se tuvo vinculación. Se concluye que este tipo de prácticas fortalece las competencias adquiridas por el estudiantado en su formación en el posgrado, puesto que les permitió introducir cambios y mejoras en los contextos en los que intervinieron, efectos que fueron reconocidos por las autoridades de las instancias sociales con las que colaboraron.

The work considers the issues of increasing motor activity in men (aged 22-35) in the process of physical activity using functional fitness equipment. The main components of the training were exercises with: own weight, weighting (kettlebells, dumbbells, barbell and others), on gymnastic equipment (rope climbing, leg lifts hanging on the Swedish wall, pull-ups, bending and extending arms on the parallel bars) and cardio training (fast walking, running, jumping, walking up stairs, swimming, fast dancing, cycling, etc.). The following exercises were included in the control standards: with own weight - jumping rope; with weighting - jerking a 16 kg kettlebell in 1 min.; with gymnastic equipment - climbing a rope at speed / pull-ups / bending and extending arms on the parallel bars; cardio training - running 1500 m.; and shuttle run with dribbling a basketball at a distance of 4x9 m. The study was conducted on the basis of the Irpin Horting Federation, in the period from 09.09.2024 to 11.15.2024. The results of the study are aimed at forming recommendations on physical activity for men in the first period of adulthood.
The study was attended by (n=20) people aged 17-25 years, of which the experimental group consists of (n=10) and the control group (n=20). During the study, there were positive changes in the main indicators in the control and experimental groups. But the methodology we proposed for organizing and conducting functional fitness classes with young men of student age provided more constructive changes in their functional indicators.

The peculiarities of adaptation of individuals of different morphological types to physical education and health classes have been studied fragmentarily – by individual types of motor activity and in individual age groups. Taking into account morpho- functional features when conducting physical education and health classes will ensure the implementation of the principle of individualization of physical activity. The purpose of the study is to develop a model of the effectiveness of of physical education and health-improving aquafitness classes based on data on the adaptation characteristics of women in the first period of mature age of different somatotypes. The study involved women aged 25-35 who had no experience in sports. It has been established that representatives of different morphological types have significant differences in the dynamics of indicators of physical development and functional fitness under the influence of aquafitness classes. Adaptive changes in representatives of endomorphic and endomorphic-mesomorphic somatotypes are more pronounced than in representatives of ectomorphic and balanced somatotypes. The developed efficiency model demonstrates the peculiarities of adaptation of women of the first period of mature age of different morphological types to aquafitness classes. This model is advisable to use when programming aquafitness classes in order to differentiate loads depending on morpho-functional features. This approach will allow taking into account the individual characteristics of women in their first period of mature age when conducting such classes, which will increase their effectiveness.

Military personnel in combat operations constantly perform tasks in extreme conditions and with great danger to their lives. The main goal in the professional training of specialists of all military specialties is their readiness for combat operations, which will give the opportunity to save the lives of servicemen as much as possible. The most effective acquisition of professional skills by military personnel takes place during their training in higher military educational institutions. It is always necessary to improve the physical training of military personnel of various components of the defense of Ukraine by searching for new and effective directions of its organization, especially for cadets. Scientists believe that one of the effective and popular types of training that combines different types of loads and supports the level of functional condition of military personnel is crossfit, which has gained popularity all over the world, especially among young people.
The article analyzes the peculiarities of conducting physical training for cadets of VVNIZ of various components of the defense of Ukraine using crossfit means and methods. The relevance of crossfit as a new training system in which the main physical qualities are developed: strength, agility, endurance, speed, coordination has been proven. In order to improve the professional training of cadets, the need to add it to the physical training program was studied. Analyzing the above, one can see the need to improve the physical fitness of specialists of all military specialties for military-professional activities using crossfit exercises and methods.
