Perceptions and correspondence of climate change beliefs and behavior among romantic couples
Authors: Goldberg Matthew H. , Carmichael Cheryl L , Lacroix Karine , Gustafson Abel , Rosenthal Seth A. , Leiserowitz Anthony
Published: July 2021

Romantic partners influence each other’s beliefs and behaviors. However, little is known about the dynamics of climate change beliefs and behaviors within romantic couples. We surveyed 758 romantic couples (N = 1,516 individuals) to investigate (a) correspondence between partners’ climate change beliefs/behaviors, (b) accuracy and bias in people’s perceptions of their partner’s beliefs/behaviors, (c) whether a person’s perceptions of their partner’s beliefs/behaviors are more strongly predicted by that partner’s actual beliefs/behaviors or by projections of one’s own beliefs/behaviors, and (d) how perceptual accuracy varies across moderating variables such as frequency of discussion about global warming. We find that climate change beliefs and behaviors often differ between romantic partners. Moreover, people’s perceptions of their partner’s beliefs/behaviors are predicted by their own beliefs and behaviors (assumed similarity), independently from the predictive effect of their partner’s actual beliefs and behaviors (accuracy). We identify opportunities for future research on relationship-based climate change interventions.
Genes versus lifestyles: Exploring beliefs about the determinants of cognitive ageing
Authors: Niechcial Malwina A. , Vaportzis Eleftheria , Gow Alan J.
Published: July 2021

Objectives: Genetic and lifestyle factors contribute to cognitive ageing. This study explored people’s beliefs about determinants of cognitive ageing and whether those beliefs were associated with engagement in potentially beneficial behaviours.Methods: Data were collected through a UK-wide survey of people aged 40 and over. Responses from 3,130 individuals (94.0% of the survey sample) were analysed using chi-square tests of independence, principal component analysis and ANCOVAs.Results: Most respondents (62.2%) believed genes and lifestyle contribute equally to age-related changes in cognitive skills. Respondents who believed genetic factors were more influential were less likely to expect cognitive skills might be improved or maintained with age, less sure what behaviours might be associated with brain health, and less likely to engage in behaviours comprising mental challenge/novelty supported as beneficial for brain health.Conclusion: Our results indicate a need for clearer messaging highlighting the role of lifestyle factors for brain health.
Observing effects in various contexts won’t give us general psychological theories
Authors: Donkin Chris , Szollosi Aba , Bramley Neil R
Published: July 2021

Generalization does not come from repeatedly observing phenomena in numerous settings, but from theories explaining what is general in those phenomena. Expecting future behavior to look like past observations is especially problematic in psychology, where behaviors change when people’s knowledge changes. Psychology should thus focus on theories of people’s capacity to create and apply new representations of their environments.
On the Measurement of Climate Change Anxiety: French Validation of the Climate Anxiety Scale
Authors: Mouguiama-Daouda Camille , Blanchard M. Annelise , Coussement Charlotte , Heeren Alexandre
Published: July 2021

The notion of climate change anxiety has gained traction in the last years. Clayton & Karazsia (2020) recently developed the 22-item Climate Change Anxiety Scale (CAS), which assesses climate change anxiety via a four-factor structure. Yet other research has cast doubts on the very structure of the CAS by calling either for a shorter (i.e. 13 items) two-factor structure or for a shorter single-factor structure (i.e. 13 items). So far, these three different models have not yet been compared in one study. Moreover, uncertainty remains regarding the associations between the CAS and other psychological constructs, especially anxiety and depression. This project was designed to overcome these limitations. In a first preregistered study (n = 305), we translated the scale into French and tested, via confirmatory factor analyses (CFA), whether the French version would better fit with a four-, two-, or single-factor structure, as implied by previous works. We also examined how the CAS factors related to depression, anxiety, and environmental identity. In a second preregistered study, we aimed at replicating our comparison between the three CFA models in a larger sample (n = 905). Both studies pointed to a 13-item version of the scale with a two-factor structure as the best fitting model, with one factor reflecting cognitive and emotional features of climate change anxiety and the other reflecting the related functional impairments. Each factor exhibited a positive association with depression and environmental identity but not with general anxiety. We discuss how this two-factor structure impacts the conceptualization of climate change anxiety.
Campaign finance vouchers do not reduce donor inequality
Authors: Yorgason Chenoa
Published: July 2021

Donating to a campaign is inherently costly, and as a result, the composition of campaign donors differs from the composition of the electorate. What happens when the financial barriers to participation in campaign finance are removed? This paper analyzes Seattle's recent campaign finance reforms, where all registered voters receive four $25 vouchers to donate to candidates abiding by stricter campaign finance restrictions. Utilizing individual- and census block group-level data combined with administrative donation records, I find that those most mobilized by the availability of vouchers belong to groups already overrepresented within the donor pool. In many cases, the availability of vouchers appears to pull the donor pool even further from parity within the electorate. This finding is significant across race, income, past political participation, age, and partisanship.
Liberal fatalism, COVID 19 and the politics of impossibility
Authors: Bacevic Jana , McGoey Linsey
Published: July 2021

How liberal governments manage knowledge, ignorance, prediction, and uncertainty has attracted increased attention in sociology. In this paper, we analyse the strategy of the UK Government during the Covid-19 pandemic to argue it entails a form of productive enrolment of ‘unknowns’ we label ‘surfing ignorance’. This strategy exploits inevitable limits to knowledge of any particular group of actors, and attempts to steer them to maintain political control. We argue this approach departs from the uses of knowledge and ignorance in both classical liberalism and neoliberalism, and theorize a new, hybrid form of governance which can be dubbed fatalistic liberalism. We discuss the relevance of this new form of governance for political futures of an increasingly volatile world. [NOTE: this paper was first submitted in May 2020].

Chryssanthenum is ornamental plant with variety of shape and color which are unique and appealing. So that, it is in great demand in the community. The production of Chrissanthenum conventionally hampered by availability and quality of seeds. Thus, it needs research through tissue culture. The aim of this research is to know interaction between coconut water and thiamine and to determine the best coconut water and thiamine concentration toward Chryssanthenum micro cuttings. This research used laboratory experimental method by using completely randomized design with two factor. The 1st factor was coconut water concentration consisted of three level which were 5%, 10% and 15%. The 2nd factor was thiamine concentration consisted of three level which were 1mg/L, 2 mg/L and 3 mg/L. From the two factors, those were found that, there were nine combination of treatments and repeated 3 times. The variety  of data was analyzed by using Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) with level of α=5%, and continued by examining Duncan’s Multiple Range Test (DMRT) with level of α=5%. The result indicated that the interaction of coconut water concentration was 5% and thiamine was 1 mg/L on the parameters when growing shoot. There was also interaction on coconut water concentration which was 10 % and thiamine was 1 mg/L on the parameters in the number of shoots. interaction of coconut water combination was 15% and thiamine was 2 mg/L on  fresh weight. The addition of 10% coconut water and 1 mg/L thiamine showed the best result on shoot length.

Authors: Bassig Rosa , Obinque Adoracion , Nebres Vivian , Delos Santos Virginia , Ragaza Rosario , Ramos Charlotte Ann , Madrid Ariel Joshua , Montojo Ulysses
Published: July 2021

The Philippine beche-de-mer is reported to get the lowest prices compared to Indo-Pacific Islands competitors, mainly due to small sizes, inferior end-product quality, and use of low-value species. With this, the traditional methods of processing sandfish (Holothuria scabra), a high-value sea cucumber species, were assessed through survey questionnaires (n > 30) and documentation. The identified study sites were coastal areas where sandfish production and processing are abundant, namely: Anda and Bolinao, Pangasinan; Palawan; and Davao and Compostela Valley. Processing sea cucumbers into beche-de-mer involves the primary steps of cleaning, boiling, and smoke or sun-drying. Variations were observed in the order and number of doing each primary step, as well as in the specific manner of cleaning (slitting, gutting, brushing), boiling, and smoke or sun-drying. Quality evaluation of the products from these different processing methods is recommended to theorize how to improve the overall status of Philippine beche-de-mer, as well as the updating of these findings.
Supply and Value Chain Analysis of Freshwater Sardine, Sardinella tawilis (Herre 1927), in Taal Lake, Batangas, Philippines
Authors: Muyot Myla , Balunan Rielyn , Mutia Maria Theresa
Published: July 2021

The supply and value chain of the world’s only freshwater sardine, Sardinella tawilis endemic to Taal Lake, were studied from January to December 2016. This study aimed to identify the actors in the value chain, evaluate each actor’s value addition, identify the roles of men and women in the chain, and identify the issues, concerns, and entry points for intervention. Key informant interviews, focus group discussions, and tracer survey interviews were done to gather data. A semi-structured questionnaire was directed to 189 respondents within and outside Taal Lake. The study showed that the tawilis marketing system is limited to the local market. Tawilis is traded fresh and processed. The chain’s key actors include the fishers, fish buyers (wholesaler, retailer, peddlers, and contracted fish buyers), processors, and consumers. The outcome of the value chain analysis of the tawilis industry showed that commercial processors have the highest value-added due to the place, form, and time transformation of the product. Meanwhile, the fishers and small-scale fish buyers have the lowest value-added during lean and peak season, respectively. The tawilis industry provides livelihood to the marginal fisherfolk, which is the first supply chain link. Several strategies were recommended in the form of process, product, function, and overall upgrading to uplift the economic benefit of the different actors in the chain and boost the tawilis industry. These include the improvement on the fishing operations, upgrading of fishing gear and other paraphernalia, provision of training on post-harvest techniques (handling, preservation, processing, value-adding, product development, etc.), market matching strategies, improvement in farm to market road transportation, establishment of fish processing facilities, and access to credit, loans or grants from the national and local governments.

Authors: Yalovskyi Pavlo
Published: July 2021

The article is devoted to one of the current problems of higher pedagogical education – forming professional competence of future musical art teachers.The study reveals the essence of the concepts of ‘modelling’ and ‘model’ in the context of modern pedagogy. It is indicated that forming the higher music and pedagogical education applicants’ professional competence is a purposeful and pedagogically guided process aimed at developing their personal potential, as well as mastering the system of knowledge, skills, abilities, and experience necessary for professional activity.By the results of the analysis of modern domestic researchers’ scientific works, as well as considering the specifics of professional training of music teachers in higher education institutions, an author’s structural and functional model of forming the future musical art teachers’ professional competence in the process of studying professional disciplines has been designed – a comprehensive, holistic, dynamic system which reflects and theoretically substantiates the structure of the process, and consists of the target (social order, purpose, tasks), theoretical and methodological (methodological approaches and principles), content (complex of professional disciplines and non-credit educational component “Future musical art teachers’ professional competence”), organizational-procedural (forms, methods, means, stages of realization of the model) and evaluation-effective blocks (structure, criteria, levels of formation of the studied phenomenon). The content of the model components has been described.It is emphasized that an integral component of the designed model is a set of pedagogical conditions, which play an important role in achieving the goal.

WORK WITH PATENT DATABASES IN THE PROCESS OF CREATING COMPETITIVE INVENTIONS
Authors: Melentiev Oleh
Published: July 2021

The article deals with methodical advice and methods of patent search, based on the experience of the author of patent science and the use of patent databases employing Internet access.A patent search is considered with the appeal of both patent bases of Ukraine and national patent bases of various states, as well as other electronic resources available on Internet networks that contribute to the creation of competitive inventions.The work of such resources based on search engines, which allow you to search by the number of patent, some applications, a year of application, a country, the author's surname, owner, and other search parameters, are considered.To create useful models in free access, some sites have their search engines with outdated bases www.findpatent.com.ua, www.findpatent.ru, www.patents.su and other.However, the patent of Ukraine for a utility model is a guarding document issued to the applicant under its responsibility and does not undergo an examination of the essence of the invention, but only a formal examination. This approach complicates the design and defence of the dissertations since the limited search base does not provide a complete evaluation of the definition of scientific and technical novelty of the development.To create competitive, new inventions it is advisable to use search engines www.google.com/patents, www.ukrpatent.org.ua, and others, which use data taken into account by patent departments during the examination.It is noted that the search engine www.google.com for the same request provides results other than www.google.com/patents. The www.google.com system covers wider resources, including book stresses of manufacturers and scientific and technical publications.Looking for patents for inventions that were issued by Ukrpatent, it is necessary to look for in a specialized database of “inventions (utility models) in Ukraine” using the instructions on the use of information and search engine of Ukrpatent.

Published: July 2021

The article deals with the problem of professionally oriented foreign language education of students of non-linguistic specialties. Today, the goal of teaching a foreign language to non-linguistic specialists is the professional and business component of intercultural communication. In other words, it became necessary to train a graduate possessing professional oral communication competence, which led to the creation of a linguodidactic approach in vocational education, the theoretical and methodological foundations of which are dealt with by professional linguodidactics.In the context of professionally oriented teaching of foreign languages, we are talking about the formation of the future specialist’s secondary linguistic personality, which is a key category of professional linguodidactics. As an autonomous diversified scientific discipline, linguodidactics has its own object and subject of research, patterns, and categories, general didactic and linguistic professional principles that are actualized in the process of foreign language teaching.Professional linguodidactics is of great scientific and social importance, since it provides ample opportunities for training specialists with a high level of foreign language professional communicative competence, ensuring their mobility, competitiveness, and success in the modern world; determines the need for constant professional and creative development of foreign language teachers. Professional education creates the necessary prerequisites and conditions for conducting fundamental linguodidactic research in professionally oriented foreign language education.
Keywords: professional linguodidactics, non-linguistic specialist, foreign language professional communicative competence, secondary linguistic personality, foreign language advanced specialization, integrated teaching, linguistic professional learning environment.
Riotous Performances
Authors: Ruble Blair A.
Published: July 2021

Theater audiences have been expressing their opinions about what is happing on stage and in the world around them for centuries. In some instances, uproarious behavior bordering on — and including — full-fledged riots, have provided early indications of profound conflicts taking shape within society that eventually can gather to overturn the political and social order. As the cases discussed here — drawn from Naples, London, Brussels, New York, Dublin, Paris, Miami, and Kyiv — suggest, such disturbances can reflect economic discontent, the rise of nationalist identities, and the emergence of new artistic movements. A night at the theater, the concert hall, or the club is always about more than the background noise of our lives. What happens when performers meet their audiences signals how we see our futures; and ourselves; and how we like what we see, or not.

Authors: Luhovska Anna
Published: July 2021

The article describes the stages of formation and the main reasons for the transformation of the current art institutional system. Its characteristics, conventional to Europe at the end of the 18th century, became common to most countries by the second half of the 19th century. Globalization processes that accompany the entire history of the previous century are the key factor of the rapid changes in society, including the art sphere. The role of global economic changes with the orientation on the society of consumption, on the growing importance of art market, commercialization of culture in general, emergence of new technologies and changes in attitudes to contemporary art in all its manifestations were observed. The reasons for shifting the emphasis and rethinking the role of artist, curator and spectator in the modern mode of existence of art institutions were analyzed. The conditions for updating existing and new forms of art representation, as well as expanding the concept of an artwork and the difference in understanding its value in historical and commercial terms that do not always coincide, were described.

Published: July 2021

FATA, located in northwestern Pakistan, was once a battlefield for nineteenth-century imperial domination. Soon after Pakistan's independence, various tribes admitted allegiance to the state. There was a separate political and administrative system in FATA; this system retained the traditional way of 'JIRGA' system in these areas, which were included in the 1973 constitution of Pakistan. After the 9/11 terrorist attacks on the world trade center and the pentagon, FATA became the front-line region in War on Terror, which greatly affected the area. The people of FATA faced exploitation of their rights in the past. The government of Pakistan in 2018 took a great step towards the development of FATA by its merger into KP, which was a great change in the status of the area, supported by different political parties.

Does transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion induce lordosis or kyphosis? Radiographic evaluation with a minimum 2-year follow-up
Authors: Liu Jinping , Duan Pingguo , Mummaneni Praveen V. , Xie Rong , Li Bo , Dong Yinhui , Berven Sigurd , Chou Dean
Published: July 2021

OBJECTIVE

Conflicting reports exist about whether transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (TLIF) induces lordosis or kyphosis, ranging from decreasing lordosis by 3.71° to increasing it by 18.8°. In this study, the authors’ aim was to identify factors that result in kyphosis or lordosis after TLIF.

METHODS

A single-center, retrospective study of open TLIF without osteotomy for spondylolisthesis with a minimum 2-year follow-up was undertaken. Preoperative and postoperative clinical and radiographic parameters and cage specifics were collected. TLIFs were considered to be “lordosing” if postoperative induction of lordosis was > 0° and “kyphosing” if postoperative induction of lordosis was ≤ 0°.

RESULTS

A total of 137 patients with an average follow-up of 52.5 months (range 24–130 months) were included. The overall postoperative disc angle (DA) and segmental lordosis (SL) increased by 1.96° and 1.88° (p = 0.003 and p = 0.038), respectively, whereas overall lumbar lordosis remained unchanged (p = 0.133). Seventy-nine patients had lordosing TLIFs with a mean SL increase of 5.72° ± 3.97°, and 58 patients had kyphosing TLIFs with a mean decrease of 3.02° ± 2.98°. Multivariate analysis showed that a lower preoperative DA, lower preoperative SL, and anterior cage placement were correlated with the greatest increase in postoperative SL (p = 0.040, p < 0.001, and p = 0.035, respectively). There was no difference in demographics, cage type or height, or spinopelvic parameters between the groups (p > 0.05). Linear regression showed that the preoperative DA and SL correlated with SL after TLIF (R2 = 0.198, p < 0.001; and R2 = 0.2931, p < 0.001, respectively).

CONCLUSIONS

Whether a TLIF induces kyphosis or lordosis depends on the preoperative DA, preoperative SL, and cage position. Less-lordotic segments became more lordotic postoperatively, and highly lordotic segments may lose lordosis after TLIF. Cages placed more anteriorly were associated with more lordosis.

Published: July 2021

The author’s message for this Bachelor’s photo project was to analyse the colour palette by researching and systematising the colour spectrum by creating a photo project. This photo project consists of two parts, which differ in the expressive imaging method; the background idea unites them. The main thing was to show the interaction of colours, texture, and the image’s plane. The use­ of paint and different background compositions gave a sense of depth to space. The scientific novelty lies in the fact that a complete spectral analysis is carried out for the first time, compared with the works of classics, analysis of the place in the history of each event associated with a particular colour.

The purpose of the article is to identify the features of successful graphic designers of the 21st-century positioning on the pages of the so­cial network Instagram, highlight the directions of communication strategies and approaches to their visualization. Research methodolo­gy. To carry out this study, we used the empirical method of collecting factual material, analysis, comparison, and generalization methods. The principal source of analytics is designers’ Insta­gram pages as factual material. The scientific novelty of the study consists in a comparative analysis of graphic designers’ communicative images on Instagram pages, based on which, for the first time, an attempt was made to sys­tematize communicative contact strategies with subscribers. There are four possible ap­proaches to creating the communicative image of the designer, which, however, do not exhaust the entire range of options. Conclusions. The communicative image use for communication on social networking pages is a reasonable and effective method of a designer’s professional development, as the number of subscribers on such pages is much bigger and reaches several hundred thousand active subscribers.

The design of social communication by de­signers with their audience is contained in the planning of the strategy of the communication process as a whole, the tactics of individual com­munication acts (posts), the allocation of several types of content, and their rhythmic alternation and design. The design of social communication by designers with their audience is contained in planning the communication process strategy as a whole, the individual communication acts (posts) tactics, the allocation of several types of content, and their rhythmic alternation and de­sign. These components combination increases the effectiveness of the designer’s communi­cative image, presented on the social network pages. This, in turn, together with the constant contact with subscribers, ensures the popularity of the designer, increases the range of potential customers and promotes professional growth.

In the opposition of the people of Ukraine to the aggressive policy of the Russian Federation, the question of studying the experience of combat operations in the east of our state is relevant. Analysis of the losses suffered by the Armed Forces of Ukraine and the civilian population during the operation. The Joint Forces (anti-terrorist operation) in Donetsk and Luhansk region clearly point to the need to study the issue of creating safe shelters, especially for the civilian population with limited time and resources. This can be realized provided that explosive methods of underground construction are used alongside traditional earthworks.

The construction of such structures must be strong and have a sufficient internal volume and ensure the safety of the people there and allow the placement of various household and sanitary equipment.

Based on the above, it should be noted that the article considers the topical issue of arrangement of underground structures and shelters in one of the ways, namely explosive. The essence of the explosive method of arranging underground workings is that a well is arranged in the soil, in which the appropriate charge of the explosive is installed and detonation is carried out. Due to the explosion of the charge, a camouflet cavity is formed, which is used for the construction of an underground protective structure or its elements.

The use of this method can significantly reduce and sometimes completely eliminate time-consuming and unproductive work on the development and removal of soil from the slaughter. Accordingly, the conditions of camouflage of buildings are significantly improved and the terms of their construction are reduced.

The purpose of the article is to highlight the methodological approach to substantiate the requirements for the main indicators of construction of protective structures by arranging underground workings in an explosive manner.

The considered methodical approach can be used both at planning of actions for the fortification equipment of shelters for the civilian population and during carrying out scientific researches for the purpose of substantiation of requirements to the basic indicators of construction of protective constructions by arrangement of underground workings by explosive way. As a direction of further research in the subject area is the improvement of scientific and methodological approach to the calculation of a multilayer underground protective structure.

In the presented article, a new method of finishing is considered in more detail - gear honing of cylindrical gears. Analysis of literature sources shows that the most problematic technological operation is the finishing of gear wheels and gear honing in particular. The difference between the traditional honing of cylindrical gears with disc abrasive honing and the new method of processing with diamond worm honing is shown. The main advantage of this method is that it can be implemented on milling machines. New tools are proposed - diamond worm gears and the technology of their manufacture is described. The modes of processing cylindrical gears with various diamond worm gears are given and the processing method itself is described. The gear wheels that were processed are used in hydraulic pumps and in hydraulic motors. Roughness parameters Rmax (total height of profile), Rz (irregularity height at 10 points), Rq (root mean square deviation of the assessed profile), which correspond to the Ukrainian and European DSTU ISO 4287 standard, were used as a criterion for assessing the quality of gear processing: 2012. As you know, the strength, wear resistance, durability and other parameters depend on the roughness of the working surfaces of the teeth of the gear wheels. Roughness affects the wear of contact surfaces and noise during operation when running in gears, as well as at the time of their starting. The surfaces were compared before and after treatment. Distribution curves were plotted to visualize the experimental data. When using the new processing method, the correction of defects of the previous processing methods is shown. Based on the results of the studies carried out, it can be concluded that the roughness parameters Rmax, Rz, Rq improve on average by 1.5-2 times. This method can be recommended for the finishing of cylindrical gears, as effective and not requiring new equipment, replacing the traditional methods of honing gears, which can be implemented without significant costs at most Ukrainian enterprises.

O artigo é resultado de um projeto de extensão que surgiu após Pesquisa de Iniciação Cientifica, realizada em dez escolas públicas de Ensino Fundamental do estado de Sergipe, ficando evidenciado que o Facebook era o dispositivo mais utilizado por quase 100% dos estudantes. Contudo, apenas uma unidade de ensino, localizada em Aracaju, capital sergipana, foi escolhida para aplicação da pesquisa, à qual é classificada como qualitativa, descritiva e estudo de caso. Os dados obtidos comprovaram a necessidade de um trabalho mais assertivo com os estudantes, visto que muitos utilizavam inadequadamente este dispositivo. Conclui-se que os estudantes devem ter cuidado no que se refere a postagens, pois devem se perceber como protagonistas dos seus compartilhamentos.
