Published: May 2024

The importance of intercultural communication is particularly significant in today's globalised world, given the continuous growth of cultural diversity and interactions among cultures at various levels, from personal relationships to global political processes. It is crucial to understand the mechanisms that facilitate or hinder effective intercultural exchange for the development of inclusive, tolerant, and respectful societies. This study analyses the impact of governance structures, digitalisation, and emotions on intercultural communication, using the theoretical framework of the theory of communicative action. The research focuses primarily on the European context. Governance structures and social hierarchies significantly shape conditions for intercultural dialogue, often creating barriers to equal exchange of ideas and hindering the voices of marginalized groups from being heard. Digitalisation provides new opportunities for intercultural exchange. However, it is important to ensure equal access to digital technologies and the development of digital literacy. Emotions have been found to influence intercultural communication strongly. Adequate expression and interpretation of emotions can contribute to greater mutual understanding and empathy among representatives of different cultures. The research findings suggest that it is necessary to integrate various strategies to overcome existing barriers in intercultural communication. These strategies include actively involving marginalized groups in dialogue, developing inclusive digital platforms, and focusing on the development of emotional intelligence. The study's conclusions emphasise the importance of a comprehensive approach to understanding and practically applying the principles of intercultural communication. This approach aims to build open, tolerant, and respectful intercultural relations. The results of this study have practical implications for educational institutions, international organisations, governmental structures, and other stakeholders seeking to promote intercultural interaction at various levels.

The issue of the development of intercultural communication in the context of cross-cultural interaction in the European region plays a crucial role due to geopolitical challenges and the need to formulate individual socio-economic and cultural development strategies. The research focuses on determining the impact of the peculiarities of the modern development of intercultural communication in the context of globalization and the spread of the trend toward the use of digital technologies that enhance the accessibility of cross-cultural interaction. The article aims to define the role of intercultural communication in the modern world and outline further development prospects. An important research area is the analysis of theoretical and practical aspects of language evolution as the main identifier of an ethnic group and its influence on cultural processes. The article outlines the main directions of intercultural communication and its impact on economic and cultural cooperation. The statistical aspects of language use and the spread of cultural influence in the European continent are investigated based on the applied analysis. It is found that strengthening cross-cultural interaction has a positive impact on socio-economic, environmental, and educational development.  The results show that the majority of respondents have a low level of motivation to master professional speech competence. The level of motivation among Masters is higher than among Bachelors. There is a certain psychological dissonance of motivation. Respondents have high and very high levels of motivation to establish relations with other people, but there are no students with a high level of motivation to master professional speech competence. All this is important for ensuring democratic values and the possibility of optimizing modern policy on the exchange of cultural experience.

Published: May 2024

Taking into account the purposeful activity of modern man, his acquisition of huge masses of information during a short period, the communication aspect of communication in the business sphere has gradually turned from a means of enjoyment, length, and unhurried language interaction into a means of accurate, short and simultaneous full communication of a problem, initiative, proposal. Communication pragmatics came to the aid of such language transformations. The article proves that pragmalinguistics studies speech communication as a manifestation of speech activity – purposeful influence on each other (persuasion, persuasion, request for information, etc.) using language. To achieve their communicative goals, depending on the context and situation, their communicative roles, the speaker and the addressee use certain speech acts (written as sentences) corresponding to these goals – stating facts, encouraging action, etc. It is scientifically determined that the emergence of ecolinguistics is due to the need to solve the problems of interaction between language, man and nature. It is indicated that it covers extremely diverse research that reflects the importance of environmental issues in society. The attention paid to issues of environmental protection at all levels of society, and as a result, the relevance of environmental issues, as well as the peculiarities of communication in the field of environmental protection, allow us to distinguish a separate type of discourse - ecological, which is characterized by the constant addition of the ecological glossary, the emergence of special axiological units, the presence of separate status models - role configuration, which determine the use of certain communicative strategies in specific communicative situations. It was highlighted in practice that the main discourse-creating concepts in environmental discourse are environment, pollution, energy, and climate change, which constitute the semantic base of communication in the field of environmental protection.

Published: May 2024

The article explores the nuances surrounding the concept of stress and examines its effects on the human body from both physical and psychological perspectives. Stress can manifest in two distinct forms, namely eustress and distress, encompassing processes involving stimulation, evaluation, and subsequent reactions. This study provides an overview of the diverse types of stress, classified into three levels based on their severity: mild, moderate, and severe. A focal point of the investigation is stressors, which represent factors perceived by individuals as excessive demands, leading to corresponding emotional reactions often accompanied by varying levels of anxiety. These stressors comprise events that hold subjective significance for a person, eliciting a cascade of physiological reactions while the individual is devoid of relative emotional tranquility. The article delves into the different categories of stressors, describing the various factors contributing to psychological or emotional stress. Furthermore, it outlines three levels of changes caused by stressors. Stress is presented as a multi-phased process, characterized by the anxiety phase, resistance phase, and exhaustion phase, accompanied by intricate biochemical responses. The study also provides a comprehensive overview of the repercussions of stress on the major body systems and the overall psychological well-being of an individual. Emphasis is placed on the structure and significance of stress resistance development, aiming to mitigate the adverse effects of stress.  Given the prevailing prevalence of stress and heightened mental pressure in contemporary Ukrainian society, the issue of stress assumes substantial importance in the present era.

The article is dedicated to assessing the impact of social networks on the mental health of the population. Social networks have gained global popularity and are integral to modern life. Nowadays, social networks are platforms for personal development, communication skills, and socialization, searching for like-minded individuals and new friends, maintaining personal blogs, distance learning, and work. This study aims to analyze the impact of social networks on the mental health of the population and assess the possible perspectives of this influence. Theoretical methods were used to achieve the set goal: studying, analyzing, and systematizing scientific literature data. Currently, about 60% of the world's population uses social networks, with about 40% of users using them not only for entertainment and relaxation but also for work and education, which determines their socio-economic significance. According to statistics, the most popular social networks worldwide are Facebook, YouTube, WhatsApp, Instagram, WeChat, and TikTok. Besides, most social media users are registered in one or several of them. On the one hand, social networks can help people communicate regardless of distance, acquire new knowledge, meet like-minded individuals, exchange ideas, and increase social support. On the other hand, their excessive use is associated with the development of addiction, low self-esteem, levels of anxiety and depression, and deterioration of social and physical health. These problems are particularly acute with increasing time spent in the virtual world. Therefore, in recent years, there has been increased interest in studying the impact of social networks on the health of the population as a whole and persons in particular and in developing and implementing effective methods to prevent the negative aspects of their us. This is a promising direction for further research.

Published: May 2024

The analytical study of the processes of thinking and awareness of reality is positioned as an actualized psychological direction in linguistics, which arose as a result of the logical transformation of traditional logicism and formalism in the course of the development of speech activity. The purpose of the article is to study the epistemologically oriented conceptual model of cognitive-semantic universals in related languages. In the course of the study, it was found that the previous historical stage was characterized by ignoring the influence of psychophysiological aspects. It has been determined that in the process of transformation the phenomenon of language is interpreted as a reflection of the psychological concept and spiritual activity. It is proved that the cognitive paradigm made it possible to explain the thinking processes that occur during the production of speech with the advent of the cognitive paradigm in linguistics. It is suggested that from a universal point of view, any conceptual area can be studied with the help of elementary concepts. The study has shown that from the standpoint of cognitive grammar, grammatical categories have corresponding prototypical structures. The sphere of conceptual functionality of modern cognitive semantics is distinguished. The cognitive-semantic universality of the basic main category is stated. It is proved that the epistemologically oriented conceptual model of cognitive-semantic universals in related languages is represented by such processes in the lexical composition of a word as generalization (transition from the concrete to the abstract general), narrowing (dynamics from the abstract to the specialized), degradation (depreciation) and polarization (opposition). Promising directions for further scientific research on the subject of the study are actualized, namely, conducting cognitive research that accurately explains the universal conceptual processes occurring in semantics.

Tourism is characterised by a high volume of diverse information flows that require constant updating and rapid exchange operations. For instance, the implementation of new technologies involves automating numerous hotel processes, including electronic reservation systems, which can contribute to improving service quality. The text provides data on the use of information technologies and automated management systems in hotels and restaurants in Ukraine and worldwide, highlighting significant prospects in this direction. Additionally, it mentions programs initially developed by Ukrainian companies. When selecting a system, factors such as price and reliability are crucial as many systems share similar functional characteristics. This article outlines the history, development, and widespread adoption of computer reservation systems (CRS). CRS has expanded the range of services and reduced the cost of electronic booking and reservation services. The expansion of tourism activities has occurred in all areas of the industry, including accommodation and entertainment. The research provides information on global reservation systems such as Amadeus, Sabre, Galileo, and Worldspan (Travelport), as well as Ukrainian reservation systems in tourism. The development opportunities of the tourism industry are closely linked to the capabilities of the Internet in modern conditions. Thousands of tour operators, travel agencies, hotels, and airlines operate successfully online, along with ten reservation systems for tourism services.

Optimizing the use of intangible assets in industry to overcome poverty: a cross-country analysis
Authors: Rysalieva Gulzat , Razhapbaeva Mairambubu , Kolosha Vasylyna , Muzychenko Mykola , Butenko Daria , Zhang Lei
Published: May 2024

The article focuses on the description and utilization of intangible assets (IA), particularly in industry, as a means of alleviating poverty. The authors examine the experiences of European countries, as well as Ukraine and Kyrgyzstan, and evaluates existing approaches to granting access to intangible assets following international law. Given that only 40% of the global population has access to the Internet and participates in the digital economy, addressing inequality in this realm is a pressing global issue recognized by the G20. Economic inequality, defined in economic theory as the gap between the rich and the poor in terms of income, wealth, education, employment, and living standards within and across countries and regions, will be considered in this article as a disparity in economic well-being indicators. Generally, it is noteworthy that intangible assets (hereinafter referred to as the IA) are crucial, enabling enterprises to develop. They serve as primary indicators of technological progress and enterprise development, reflecting its innovative direction. Consequently, the accounting and auditing of IA play a vital role in industrial enterprises in Ukraine. However, insufficient legislative frameworks in post-Soviet countries, notably Kyrgyzstan, hinder the ability of intangible assets to contribute to poverty alleviation. The income distribution in these countries, which is closely linked to the issue of inequality, is viewed in a positivist theoretical framework from a functional perspective, specifically as the allocation of income among the principal factors of production. Changes in poverty levels in post-Soviet countries can also be attributed to investments in intangible assets that benefit households. Possessing social capital in the form of quality education, health, or land can lead to more favorable earning prospects and can function as intangible capital. One notable characteristic of industry in post-Soviet countries is its urban concentration, which can be attributed to the presence of individuals with more valuable intangible assets in urban areas.

Exploring the nexus between law and morality: ethical considerations in legal studies
Authors: Pavlichenko Iryna , Maslak Nataliya , Gornostay Alesia , Melikhova Juliia , Slyusarenko Tatyana
Published: May 2024

This publication aims to furnish a comprehensive examination of the ethical elements inherent in the roles of judges, prosecutors, attorneys, and notaries, elucidating their influence on the content of pertinent legal statutes governing the professional status of these legal vocations. The research employed various methodologies, encompassing the analytical method, the synthetic method, the method of scientific generalization, the method of interpreting legal norms, and the formal-logical method. The examination of legal understanding from a moral and ethical perspective involves the scrutiny of two principal concepts: the concept of natural law and the concept of legal positivism. This analytical framework enables the author to assert that a hallmark of progressive law-making lies in the adherence to not only the tenets of natural human rights but also moral and ethical principles during the formulation of legislative acts. In the context of the role and significance of ethics in the professional conduct of judges, prosecutors, attorneys, and notaries, the author undertakes an analysis of pertinent Ukrainian laws. It is asserted that within each of the examined legal enactments, ethical requirements assume a predominant role in the regulation of the legal status of practitioners in the specified legal professions. For instance, the non-violation of rules of professional ethics is delineated as a fundamental duty for specific categories of legal practitioners, with breaches serving as grounds not only for disciplinary consequences but also for the termination of the authority. Building upon the aforementioned observations, it is affirmed that the ethical dimensions of jurisprudence hold significance within contemporary legal discourse across three dimensions: adherence to moral and ethical principles in the crafting of legislative instruments; avoidance of breaches against ethical principles in the course of judicial, prosecutorial, attorney-at-law, and notarial activities; and the imperative that moral and ethical requirements remain inviolate during the preparation of legally consequential documents.

Modifying asphalt binder materials with fiber reinforcement is one approach to improving the performance of asphalt concrete mixtures. This research aims to evaluate the effect of optimal palm fiber concentration on strengthening and improving the properties of the mixture and rutting resistance. Test specimens were made with four variations in the composition of a mixture of different palm fiber percentages (0%, 0.4%, 0.6%, and 0.85) with lengths (0.4 cm, 0.6 cm, 0.8 cm, and 1.0 cm) using an optimum asphalt content of 6% to evaluate the properties of the asphalt concrete mixture based on the Marshall Test. In comparison, the rutting indicator was evaluated using a wheel tracking tool with four variations in the percentage of palm fiber to an optimal length of 0.8 cm. The results of the Marshall test research showed that palm fiber increased stability by 6%, with the highest stability at a percentage of palm fiber of 0.6% with a length of 0.8 cm 1210.45 kg, higher than the normal mixture with a stability value of 1142.59 kg, VIM value decreased by 14% compared to the normal mixture and increased the flexibility of the mixture at the optimum percentage composition of palm fiber 0.6% length 8 cm by 4%. Fibre wheel tracking test results show that adding fiber fibers increases the groove and rutting resistance of optimum fiber by 53% with a total deformation value of 0.856 mm, dynamic stability of 5727 passes/mm, and a deformation rate of 0.007/mm/minute. Palm fiber is not strong enough to withstand heat due to a mixing temperature of 150oC and a compaction temperature of 140oC, with a higher risk of fiber damage

Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk melihat kemandirian belajar mahasiswa pada mata kuliah Matematika Dasar dalam mengikuti pembelajaran jarak jauh khususnya pembelajaran dalam jaringan selama masa Pandemi Covid-19. Merupakan penelitian kuantitatif-deskriptif dengan 85 orang mahasiswa tahun pertama Prodi Sosial Ekonomi Pertanian Universitas Katolik Indonesia Santu Paulus Ruteng dengan fokus untuk mempelajari kemandirian belajar mahasiswa yang mengikuti pembelajaran dalam jaringan karena situasi Pandemi Covid-19. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan 18.82% mahasiswa yang memiliki kemandirian belajar rendah, sedangkan 81.18% mahasiswa memiliki kemandirian belajar yang tinggi. Selanjutnya, dalam wawancara semi terstruktur ditemukan bahwa mahasiswa pada awalnya mengalami kesulitan dalam beradaptasi perubahan kebiasaan belajar, keterbatasan sumber daya belajar dalam jaringan, dan kurangnya interaksi baik sesama mahasiswa maupun dengan dosen. Keterbatasan ini mendorong mahasiswa semakin mandiri dalam belajar yang terlihat dari lebih dari 70% mahasiswa sudah menetapkan tujuan belajar, strategi belajar, mampu mengatur waktu belajar, dan melakukan evaluasi diri terhadap proses pembelajaran yang telah diikuti. Lebih dari 80% mahasiswa menentukan lingkungan belajar yang mendukung suasana belajar dan mencari bantuan dari rekan sekelas apabila mengalami kesulitan dalam belajar.
This research was conducted to see the independence of student learning in the Basic Mathematics course in participating in distance learning, especially online learning during the Covid-19 Pandemic. This is a quantitative-descriptive study with 85 first-year students of the Agricultural Socio-Economic Study Program of the Indonesian Catholic University, Santu Paulus Ruteng, with a focus on studying the learning independence of students who take online learning due to the Covid-19 Pandemic situation. The results showed 18.82% of students had low learning independence, while 81.18% of students had high learning independence. Furthermore, in semi-structured interviews, it was found that students initially experienced difficulties in adapting to changes in learning habits, limited learning resources in the network, and a lack of interaction between students and lecturers. This limitation encourages students to be more independent in learning, which can be seen from more than 70% of students who have set learning goals, learning strategies, being able to manage study time, and conduct self-evaluation of the learning process that has been followed. More than 80% of students determine a learning environment that supports a learning atmosphere and seek help from classmates.
