Guided by the early findings of social scientists, practitioners have long advocated for greater contact between groups toreduce prejudice and increase social cohesion. Recent work, however, suggests that intergroup contact can undermine support for social change towards greater equality, especially among disadvantaged group members. Using a large and heterogeneous dataset (12,997 individuals from 69 countries), we demonstrate that intergroup contact and support for social change towards greater equality are positively associated among members of advantaged groups (ethnic majorities and cis-heterosexuals) but negatively associated among disadvantaged groups (ethnic minorities and sexual and gender minorities). Specification curve analysis revealed important variation in the size—and at times, direction—of correlations, depending on how contact and support for social change were measured. This allowed us to identify one type of support for change—willingness to work in solidarity— that is positively associated with intergroup contact among both advantaged and disadvantaged group members.
Social Comparison and State–Trait Dynamics: Viewing Image-Conscious Instagram Accounts Affects College Students’ Mood and Anxiety
Authors: Kohler Madison , Turner Imani , Webster Gregory D.
Published: January 2020

The present experiment examined the extent to which appearance-focused accounts on Instagram (a photo-sharing social-media platform) negatively influence people’s moods and anxiety levels. Undergraduates at the University of Florida (N = 81, ages 18–30 years, M = 19.07, SD = 1.56) were randomly assigned to scroll through Instagram accounts with either image-conscious photos (fitness, model, and beauty-blogging accounts) or control photos (food, nature, home-decor accounts). Before (Time 1) and after (Time 2) the experimental manipulation, participants completed state-based mood and anxiety measures, and a one-time measure of trait anxiety. Controlling for Time-1 measures, regression results showed that viewing photos from image-conscious accounts related to decreased positive mood and increased negative mood and anxiety at Time 2. Exploratory analyses showed that people with lower trait anxiety were especially susceptible to feeling more state anxiety after viewing image-conscious photos. These findings advance theory by suggesting that state–trait anxiety dynamics are important to understanding how people react to viewing image-conscious Instagram accounts. Further, a social comparison theory of viewing image-conscious photos online should integrate information about people’s short-term reactions (states, moods) and long-term predispositions (traits, individual differences).
”I Like You, as a Friend”: Voice Assistants’ Response Strategies to Sexual Harassment and Their Relation to Gender
Authors: Leisten Luca Marie , Rieser Verena
Published: January 2020

Sexual harassment towards voice assistants continues to be prevalent with up to 10% of interactions being abusive – often with sexual overtones. Voice assistants are predominantly modeled as female and often respond positively to sexual harassment, which according to UNESCO has the potential to reinforce negative gender biases and stereotypes. In the following, we evaluate alternative responses to sexual harassment and their relation to the assistants’ gender. In an online study, 77 participants rated the appropriateness of the assistants’ responses to sexual harassment while the gender of the artificial voice was manipulated and compared the ratings to appropriateness scores collected with no voice-based gender information present, i.e. text-only. Results showed an interaction between gender and the appropriateness level of a response. In particular, we were only able to confirm the previous results for male voices. We found that the perceived appropriateness changed as expected when spoken by a male voice, in accordance to previous no-voice ratings. However, we observed no clear difference in appropriateness levels when spoken by a female voice. We assume that this relationship is due to conflicting expectations regarding females’ responses to sexual harassment. Possibly, unrealistic stereotypical expectations towards females resulted in neither response being considered appropriate.
Etymological Stratigraphy of the Lexemes lacuna / лакуна in English and Ukrainian
Authors: Anokhina T. O.
Published: January 2020

The article deals with etymological versions of lacuna in English and its Ukrainian лакуна counterpart. It has become terminologically important in the process of functioning and has become the basic term for the new science of lacunology. It is revealed that the lexeme of lacuna / лакуна was borrowed into English and Ukrainian from Latin, but at the same time it should be considered as a result of the semantic development of IE. *laku, in particular, of its primary definitions as “reservoir”, “dried lake”, “hole”, “void” and others Etymological nests of derivatives related to the words lacuna / лакуна have been constructed to demonstrate their genetic relationship for the common IE. root *laku / *laqü-, with the subsequent transition to the Proto-German *lögr and the Proto-Slavic – *loky. It is established that by semantic shift of the semantic chain “water”, “lake”, “pit”, “hole” in the original semantic structure of these words an archisema ‘absence’ was formed through a dichotomy повний [з водою] :: порожний [без води]. The component analysis of differential and integral family connections of the archiseme of ‘absence’ in modern naive pictures of the world is made. Based on them their further terminologisation in scientific pictures of the world have been recorded.It is proved that in the scientific pictures of the world these semes have lost their original topographic value (reservoirs and their devastated state) and have been transformed into seven ‘pass’, ‘missing element’, ‘missing form’, ‘gap’. The terms “lake”, “pit”, “swamp” and “sea” are no longer associated with the word lacuna / лакуна. Developing its original meanings and acquiring new differential families associated with the archiseme of ‘absence’ and new synonyms, the notion of lacuna / лакуна has become a term in philosophy, mathematics, medicine and linguistics.
Diachronic Interpretation of Phonomorphological and Semantic Regularities of Nostratic (Based on *HuḲa “eye”)
Authors: Kapranov Y. V.
Published: January 2020

The diachronic interpretation of Indo-European *hṷekṷ- / *heuk- “eye, to see”, Altaic *uka- “to notice, to understand” and Afro-Asiatic *Hwq- “to know”, originating from Nostratic *HuḲa “eye, to see”, allowed to establish both divergent and convergent types of linguistic relationship among them, for which the close (Indo-European, Altaic, Afro-Asiatic) and remote / distant (Indo-European / Afro-Asiatic and Altaic) types of language relationship have been established, depending on the action of the main phonomorphological and semantic regularities.The degree of manifestation of phonomorphological laws indicates a close type of language relationship among Indo-European, Altaic and Afro-Asiatic language families. They are: 1) the law on the three-letter / three-phonemic root structure of an archetype (according to E. Benvenist), which corresponds to the law on the consonant root (according to A G. Belova): it helped to fix three phonemes in Indo-European *hṷekṷ- / *heuk-, Altaic *uka- and Afro-Asiatic *Hwq-, as well as to trace the reflexes of this structure in the genetic data material of these language families; 2) the law of the mora is fixed in the Indo-European *hṷekṷ- / *heuk-, Altaic *uka- and Afro-Asiatic *Hwq-, the forms of which correspond to a monosyllable structure, and mono- and multisyllable structures have been observed in the genetic data material; 3) the process of spirantisation consists in weakening the consonant phoneme /q/, i.e. the reflection /q/ into /k/ and /x/; 4) the process of “pharyngisation” can be traced at the end of monosyllabic words, where it could occur by analogy with those forms of the word where the consonant was intervocal; 5) the law on the pronunciation of short vowel phonemes /a/ and /u/, where such features are represented: 1) the degree of solution of the oral cavity; 2) hardness / softness (low tonality / high tonality); 3) absence or presence of labilisation; 6) the law of prosody, which consists in the realisation of stress in accordance with various languages; 7) the law of an open syllable.The degree of phonomorphological manifestations indicates a remote / distant form of language relationship between Indo-European / Afro-Asiatic and Altaic language families, where one of the provisions of the phonetic prohibitions of Jucquо, i.e. when the initial and final laryngals are not allowed, is traced in the Indo-European *hṷekṷ- / *heuk- and Afro-Asiatic *Hwq-.The degree of manifestation of semantic laws indicates a close type of language relationship among Indo-European, Altaic and Afro-Asiatic language families, where 2 lexico-semantic variants (LSV) were fixed: 1) somatism; 2) action. If in the Indo-European *hṷekṷ- / *heuk- “eye, to see” 2 LSVs are fixed: 1) somatism; 2) action, but in the Altaic *uka- “to notice, to understand”, including Turkic *uk(ā)- “to raise, to listen” and Mongolian *uk- “to notice”, as well as the Afro-Asiatic *Hwq- “to know” – only 1 LSV – 2) action.

Published: January 2020

This research contains eclectic analyses of the theory of human resources development along with the founding’s from the empirical research with the main goal to determine the pros­pects for career development in the hospitality industry in North Macedonia. By using a sample of employees from different gender, age and education, the differences in perception have been evaluated and analyzed. Based on the founding’s, the researchers identified the current compe­tencies, the future training needs as well as the career status of the employees in the hospitality industry in North Macedonia. Additionally, the research investigated the differences in the evaluated competencies among different groups of employees (gender, age, education, career status). The measured competencies were divided into six groups: Leadership/Assertiveness, Ethics/Professionalism, Teamwork/Communication, Orientation towards success, Self-management (stress, emotions) and Learning and development. By conducting the set of questionnaires, the quanti­tative analyses were conducted on the different variables that have been analyzed by computing different statistical methods like descriptive analyses, t-test ANOVA and correlation analyses. The paper also explores the necessity for developing the human resources departments into the organizations from hospitality industry where the educated and experienced professionals will be involved in providing services for competences and career development of each employee based on the organizational and individual needs. This practical approach should increase the awareness of the leaders in the hospitality industry in North Macedonia to invest in the knowledge and development of human resources as the main resource for organizational success and development.
SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS FOR CORPORATE COMMUNICATIONS IN GEOGRAPHICALLY DEFINED MARKETS USING THE EXAMPLE OF THE SALE OF CONSTRUCTION FINANCING IN RURAL AREAS
Authors: Enz Christian
Published: January 2020

Private mortgage lending business is an important business segment for retail banks. There are two main reasons for this. Firstly, the comparatively low risk. On the one hand, because many years of experience in this segment enable optimal risk management. On the other hand, the financed properties also provide optimum security. Due to the small size of this business segment, private construction financing was unattractive for major banks for a long time. On the other hand, this division was a core business for regional banks and savings banks. However, as a result of the banking crisis in 2007 and 2008 and the ECB’s ongoing low-interest policy, the private mortgage lending sector is now attractive to all market participants. This is reflected in fiercer competition. The importance of customer communication has therefore also increased in the advertising for new business. Since financial and personnel resources are limited, corporate communications are faced with the challenge of addressing potential customers as efficiently as possible. Communication science has already developed a number of concepts for optimal, integrated communication. These are based on average consumers. Against the background of possible regional deviations in media usage and consumer behaviour, this work explains that banks and savings banks with a regionally defined business area should set different priorities within the communications mix than suprare­gional providers. To this end, a field study was conducted in rural areas of the Nuremberg metro­politan region and analysed using a chi-square test. The study revealed the continuing importance of branches and personal advice, despite increasing digitalisation. At the same time, the necessity of closely networking stationary sales and online offers in rural areas becomes clear.

Published: January 2020

Aims: To assess the interest and the efficacy of a systematic encounter with a psycho-oncologist on the perception of the psychologist among men and women with cancer.

Procedure: The patients who systematically encounter the psycho-oncologist were compared to a control group. Anxio-depression symptoms and the patients’ perception of the psychologist were assessed on two occasions: at the time of diagnosis and 4 months later, during treatment.

Results: On the overall group, we failed to observe significant differences between conditions about the perception of the psychologist, but gender was a critical factor associated with both perception of the psychologist and further psychological consultations. Those men who met a psychologist soon after diagnosis continued to meet the psychologist to a far greater extent than those in the control group. Conversely, women pursued psychological support whether they had encountered the psychologist or not.

Conclusion: Results indicate that an encounter with the psychologist can be helpful to elicit interest in a psychological support, especially for men.
Mythes et variations culturelles autour du cancer dans les pays du bassin méditerranéen
Authors: Daher M. , Boute V. , Chebib A.A.
Published: January 2020

L’incidence du cancer et la mortalité par cette maladie sont en nette progression dans le monde, et plus particulièrement dans les pays en voie de développement, incluant les pays du Moyen-Orient et de l’Afrique du Nord. Les barrières au contrôle du cancer dans ces régions sont d’ordre économique et organisationnel mais aussi dues aux causes culturelles associées à l’ignorance, aux mythes et aux tabous liés au cancer. Il existe plusieurs raisons qui ont stigmatisé le cancer ; la plupart des personnes dans ces régions continuent à considérer que le cancer est une maladie fatale à tous les coups, qu’il peut être contagieux. Il est même parfois considéré comme une punition. Les paroles de patients qui évoquent ces stigmates et ces perceptions sont rapportées. Le rôle de la famille et de la spiritualité est évoqué. Ces mythes et tabous sont un continuel défi pour le contrôle du cancer : ils entraînent un effet contraire aux efforts de sensibilisation et de prévention du cancer. D’où l’objectif n° 5 de la Déclaration universelle de l’UICC de faire disparaître les effets néfastes des mythes et des stigmates. Après avoir passé en revue plusieurs exemples de mythes et de tabous rencontrés dans la pratique, nous rapportons quelques leçons apprises et utiles dans la lutte contre le cancer dans les pays du Moyen- Orient et du nord de l’Afrique.

Authors: Santarpia A. , Brabant E. , Jauffret E. , Mouysset J.-L. , Menicacci A.
Published: January 2020

Objectif: Cette étude qualitative vise à décrire les effets revitalisants d’un protocole de Danse Mouvement Thérapie chez une patiente en rémission d’un cancer du sein, Mme Magnolia (66 ans).

Matériel et méthodes: Mme Magnolia participe à un atelier de Danse Mouvement Thérapie composé de dix moments d’expérience corporelle. Nous utilisons d’abord le logiciel T-LAB Plus 2018 (version 4.0.2.7) pour le calcul des associations de mots lemmatisés (cooccurrences) ensuite une interprétation de la narration selon l’approche de Carl Gustav Jung et de Rollo May.

Résultats: La narration de Mme Magnolia peut s’organiser à travers cinq catégories d’expériences corporelles impliquant l’activation de l’archétype duPuer Aeternus ou Enfant divin. Plus précisément, nous avons identifié : « L’effort et le courage de se jeter et s’ouvrir au monde », « Renouer avec le corps et ressentir son éveil », « La mise entre parenthèses de la maladie, générant un sentiment de liberté », « Le plaisir de danser en lien avec un sentiment d’être acceptée », « Le plaisir de danser en lien à l’évocation nostalgique d’un temps lointain ».

Conclusion: Nous pensons que « le travail psychique avec la Danse Mouvement Thérapie » peut non seulement éloigner le patient du fardeau de la maladie (symptômes, plaintes, gènes et douleurs physiques), mais aussi générer des expériences corporelles revitalisantes (sensation de liberté physique, éveil psychocorporel, sentiments d’ouverture au monde) et une narration riche d’éléments symboliques.
THROMBOSE-PREVENTIVE INFLUENCE OF QUERCETIN IN RATS ON THE HYPER-COAGULATION DIET
Authors: Potaskalova V.S. , Khaitovych M.V. , Plenova O.M. , Valigura M.S.
Published: January 2020

Relevance. Hyper-coagulation processes increase the risk of coronary heart disease.

Objective of the study was to study the effect of quercetin on the hemostatic system when using hyper-coagulation diet in rats.

Materials and methods. The study included 17 male rats weighing 240-270 g. The rats of the control group (n = 6) were fed with conventional compound feed; Group I rats (n = 5) - mixed feed; and group II rats (n = 6) mixed with meat and quercetin (1.33 g/l). After 21 days, sterile blood was collected. The Amellung Coagulometer KS 4A studied the external and internal blood coagulation pathways, the activity of their own anticoagulant and fibrinolytic blood systems. The data obtained were statistically processed using Excel 2010 and Statistica v.10 (StatSoft, USA).

Results. In rats of group 1, the external pathway of blood coagulation underwent the most significant changes, as indicated by an almost four-fold acceleration of prothrombin time and a decrease in the international normalized ratio. From the side of the internal pathway, the greatest changes were recorded in the last phase of clot formation: thrombin time decreased by 39.8% with an almost constant rate of activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), which confirmed the activation of the fibrin formation phase. In addition, the content of soluble fibrin-monomer complexes (RFMC) increased 1.7 times and the fibrinogen decreased. At the same time, depletion of the anticoagulant potential of the blood was observed (a 42.2% decrease in the activity of the protein C system with a tendency to a decrease in antithrombin III (AT III). The fibrinolytic system was significantly suppressed, as indicated by more than three times inhibition of XII-dependent fibrinolysis. In animals Group 2 compared with the indicator in group 1, APTT was 2 times longer; the concentration of RFMC was also doubled, fibrinolysis was activated by 25%.

Conclusion: The use of quercetin bioflavonoids in animals with simulated coronary heart disease slows down blood coagulation and potentiates the anticoagulant system, including due to a 40% increase in AT III activity, can be considered as a thrombosis-preventive effect

Authors: Junior Aristil , Pierre Jonas  Sanon  , Dominique Lordé
Published: January 2020

Moringa (MO) is a plant with great nutritional value distributed in almost all subtropical and tropical countries including Haiti.  MO is relatively present in all departments of Haiti. But till now, there are no data available for the phenotypical diversities of Haitian MO. The current survey is aimed at evaluating the morphological diversity of Haitian MO. From June to September of the 2018 year, 90 samples of MO were collected in the 10 departments of Haiti. Characters registered per plant were submitted to statistical analysis using IBM SPSS, version 22.0. Results revealed that Haitian MO grain yield (GY) were ranging from 0.20 to 3.26 t/ha. MO from Grand’Anse and South are significantly more yielded than the other districts (p< 0.05).  MO grain yield was positively related to all registered characters. The two maximal GY correlations were observed mainly with the number of branches plant (? =0.74; p<0.001) and the number of pods per branch (? =0.60; p<0.001).  Haitian MO was classified into two separate clusters. MO of South, Southeast and Grand’Anse departments formed one cluster and the other departments constituted the largest one.  The greatest genetic diversity was detected in MO from Southeast and West departments. Crossing materials from Southeast and West department is well recommended for creating possibly new accessions. The additional investigation regarding molecular classification is deeply required for better understanding of the genetic diversity of Haitian MO.

Formulation of the problem. World history contains many sad facts related to political conflicts, which over time turn into open armed confrontation within individual regions of different countries. Reintegration of such territories into the socio-economic system of the country may remain an impossible task, so determining the prospects for the development of the region with the help of leading sectors of the economy, in particular tourism, is an urgent problem. The aim of the research: analysis of existing international experience, determination of economic and social prerequisites for the development of post-conflict territories by tourism means on the example of eastern Ukraine. The subject of the research: theoretical and applied aspects of using tourism industry tools for the development of post-conflict territories. The methods of the research: systematic approach, structural-logical and statistical analysis, synthesis, generalization. The hypothesis of the research: involves the use of an approach whereby tourism development is considered as an alternative strategy for restoring socio-economic well-being for the region's inhabitants. The statement of basic materials: review of previous research and current historical facts about solving the problems of post-conflict territories revealed four negative and four positive prerequisites, the existence of which substantiates the expediency of using tourism industry tools for the development of such problem regions. The originality and practical significance of the research: the results of this study, conducted according to the data of Lugansk and Donetsk region, prove that tourism will not become a leading sector of economy for these regions, but its intra-regional development will be a catalyst for recovery of other economy branches. Conclusions and prospects for further research: given the existing skepticism about tourism development opportunities in the Donbas, the following studies will focus on the reasonable feasibility of developing certain tourism types in this region of our country.
