Бирюкова, академическая мотивация измерялась с помощью опросника «Шкалы академической мотивации» Т.О. Гордеевой, О.А. Сычева, Е.Н. Осина. В качестве показателя успешности изучения ИЯ использовались средние баллы оценок школьников учителями ИЯ по пятибалльной шкале. В результате были установлены значимые различия как в выраженности отдельных черт личности и видов академической мотивации, так и в корреляциях изучаемых переменных в выборках юношей и девушек.

The problems of the effectiveness of foreign language (FL) acquisition remain relevant in modern linguistics, pedagogy, psychology and related sciences due to a large number of factors of different levels associated with the process and result of studying FL. The purpose of the study presented in this article is to analyze the associations of academic motivation and personality traits with the success of studying FL in high school students. A total of 120 (50% – females) students of a Moscow comprehensive school took part in the research. All respondents were 10th-11th grade of the medical profile students (Mage = 17 years) studying English as a foreign language. To diagnose personality traits, the Russian short version of the Five Factors Personality questionnaire adapted by M.V. Bodunov and S.D. Biryukov was used, academic motivation was measured using the Academic Motivation Scales by T.O. Gordeeva et al. The average scores of schoolchildren's assessments by teachers of FL on a five-point scale as an indicator of the success of the study of FL were used. As a result, significant differences were found both in the severity of personality traits and types of academic motivation, and in the correlations of the studied variables in the samples of boys and girls.

Странствие как принцип творчества П. Вяхи
Authors: И.М. Северина
Published: October 2024

Музыка одного из самых универсальных композиторов Эстонии Пеэтера Вяхи рассматривается в статье с точки зрения единства жизни и творчества — как неразделимого целого. Такому пониманию во многом способствуют бесчисленные продолжительные путешествия Вяхи, в том числе экспедиции по отдаленным регионам, так или иначе отраженные в его произведениях. Первый уровень их проявления связан с глубинной тенденцией, характерной для эстонской музыки — особым отношением к природе. Второй — с культурными традициями тех стран, где ему довелось побывать. Автор приходит к мысли о том, что музыка Вяхи прочно встроена в жизнь и в этом обретает свою силу.

The music of one of the most universal composers of Estonia, Peeter Vähi, is examined in the article from the point of view of the unity of life and oeuvre — as an inseparable whole. This understanding is largely facilitated by Vähi’s countless long journeys, including expeditions to remote regions, which are one way or another reflected in his works. The first level of their manifestation is associated with a deep tendency, characteristic for Estonian music — a special attitude towards nature. The second one is associated with the cultural traditions of the countries and regions where he happened to visit. The author comes to the conclusion that Vähi’s music is firmly integrated into life and in this it gains its strength.

Expanding access to simple blood collection tools is essential to monitor, control, and eliminate malaria in low resource settings where the disease is endemic. The most common method to preserve blood is depositing fingerstick samples onto filter paper—the dried blood spot (DBS) card. While DBS cards offer more optimal storage solutions than venous blood in vacutainers, they do not provide sample cleanup or enrichment of Plasmodium DNA. These samples retain high host-to-parasite DNA ratios, which negatively affect the quality of downstream sequencing. We developed a Leukocyte Depletion Card (LDC) that substantially depletes host white blood cells from whole blood to enrich Plasmodium-infected red blood cells in a hematocrit-independent volume (9.0 ± 0.5 μL). Using quantitative PCR, we evaluate the performance of the LDC using blood collected from 16 P. falciparum-infected patients at a clinic in Cape Coast, Ghana. The LDC achieved an average 32.5-fold parasite enrichment over venous blood. Promisingly, the LDC also provides a 36.6-fold parasite enrichment over a DBS card. Initial testing of targeted sequencing demonstrates significant (p < 0.01) improvement in P. falciparum read counts and coverage for the LDC. The LDC represents a unique microsampling device with potential applications in epidemiological studies of malaria.
Eight-Membered-Ring-Forming Chain-Growth Cyclopolymerization of 2,2'-Diisocyano-1,1'-binaphthalenes for the Synthesis of Helical Poly([1,4]diazocine-2,3-diyl)s
Authors: Yoshinaga Yukako , Nishimaru Ryo , Suginome Michinori
Published: October 2024

Novel helical macromolecules, poly([1,4]diazocine-2,3-diyl)s (PDACs), are synthesized by cyclopolymerization of 2,2'-diisocyano-1,1'-binaphthalenes in the presence of organonickel or organopalladium complexes as initiators, with the former being more efficient. The polymerization proceeds in a living fashion similar to the polymerization of monoisocyanides, but involves the formation of an eight-membered [1,4]diazocine ring, resulting in the exclusive formation of an array of [1,4]diazocine rings connected at their 2,3-positions without forming a monoiminomethylene unit. The structure of PDAC was identified by 13C-labeling experiments, mass spectrum, and X-ray crystallographic analysis of the isolated living 2-([1,4]diazocinyl)palladium complex. The conformation of the main PDAC chain obtained from (R)-2,2'-diisocyano-1,1'-binaphthalene is deduced from DFT calculations, which reveal that the two C=N bonds in the diazocine ring form a dihedral angle of –73(+-5), while the two inter-unit C=N bonds exhibit a nearly anti (+167(+-4)) orientation, resulting in the formation of a left-handed helical main chain. The enantiopure monomer polymerized significantly faster than the racemic monomer, forming stereoisomeric PDACs, the NMR spectra of which differ.

Published: October 2024

An accurate understanding of the mechanism of the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is crucial for the design of efficient catalysts and the development of hydrogen energy. Despite significant advancements in microscopic pH detection studies through the use of mainstream strategies, such as scanning electrochemical microscopy (SECM), rotating ring-disc electrode (RRDE), and spectroscopic techniques, selective and sensitive detection of the change of proton (H+) concentration near the vicinity of the electrode during OER with high temporal resolution remains elusive. In this study, we pioneered the creation of an efficient hybrid electrochemiluminescence-based (ECL-based) pH sensor that enables the detection of H+ in the vicinity of the electrodes during OER. A new class of luminophore based on ECL resonance energy transfer (ECL-RET) was theoretically predicted and further synthesized by grafting fluorescent dyes onto carbon nitride nanosheets (CN) through non-covalent interaction. We present that one of the newly synthesized emitters, CN-FITC, is capable of detecting proton with fast response time, where the ECL intensity of CN-FITC is regulated by proton concentration. By coating this emitter onto an electrode positioned near OER catalysts, proton generation near the vicinity of the catalysts could be qualitatively detected, providing details of the reaction mechanism of OER and unveiling the catalyst degrading pathway caused by proton accumulation. Additionally, the average proton generation rate on the catalyst was extracted from the local pH measurement, leading to a quantitative descriptor of the OER reaction rate. Owing to the high designability of the dye, this study opens up a new strategy for the detection of more reaction intermediates.

Published: October 2024

Oxygen transport membranes find broad usage in many technologies but, due to the harsh conditions that such technologies operate under, detailed structural analysis under operational conditions has been limited. This work details the in situ neutron and synchrotron diffraction of the industrially relevant family of compounds, La0.9Sr0.1Co1-yFeyO3-δ (y = 0, 0.25, 0.75, 1), under reductive and oxidative conditions at elevated temperatures, 723 K-1123 K. Quantitative Rietveld refinements determines the molar fraction of all crystalline intermediates and products that form during the reactions of La0.9Sr0.1Co1-yFeyO3-δ (y = 0, 0.25, 0.75, 1) with methane and then air. Coupling in situ diffraction analysis with catalytic product analysis of the partial oxidation of methane allows for the catalytically active phases to be determined. This work shows the strength of in situ diffraction under extreme conditions and the insight it can give about reactions in the solid state that have been previously elusive.
Unveiling Non-Monotonic Deformation of Flexible MOFs during Gas Adsorption: From Contraction and Softening to Expansion and Hardening
Authors: Parashar Shivam , Corrente Nicholas J. , Neimark Alexander V.
Published: October 2024

Flexibility of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) plays an important role in their applications, particularly in adsorption separations, energy and gas storage, and drug delivery. As an important practical example, we study adsorption of CH4, and CO2 on iso-reticular IRMOF-1 crystal at different temperatures using an original computational scheme of iterative grand canonical Monte Carlo (GCMC) and isothermal-isobaric ensemble molecular dynamics (NPT-MD) simulations. Our findings reveal that thermal fluctuations and flexibility of the host framework affect adsorption of guest molecules, which in turn exert a significant adsorption stress, up to 0.1 GPa, on the framework causing its deformation that occurs in a counterintuitive manner. Contrary to the expected gradual swelling during adsorption, we observe non-monotonic deformation, characterized by sharp contraction during the pore filling, followed by partial expansion. During the pore-filling process, guest molecules engender softening of the host structure to a nearly 100% increase in compressibility. However, upon the pore filling and further densification of the adsorbed phase, the structure hardens and compressibility decreases. These findings are supported by quantitative agreement with adsorption experiments on IPMOF-1 and are expected to be applicable to various degrees, to other MOFs and nanoporous materials.
Strong metal support interaction in Ru/V2O3 catalyst reduces reactant induced poisoning during succinic acid hydrogenation

Published: October 2024

Hydrogenation of carboxylic acids to lactones and alcohols is an important reaction. However, strong adsorption of carboxylic acid on the catalyst surface leads to poisoning of the active site, demands harsher reaction condition and use of organic solvents. In this study, we demonstrate that the strong metal support interaction (SMSI) and hydrogen spillover on Ru/V2O3 can counter the poisoning effect. The Ru/V2O3 catalysts reduced at 400 C formed a layer of V2O3 over Ru. The catalyst was able to hydrogenate succinic acid to gamma-butyrolactone (GBL) in 77 % yield in the presence of water at mild conditions of 150 C and 6 h. H2-D2 exchange experiment showed that for the Ru/V2O3 without SMSI the H2 dissociation was inhibited due to the adsorption of substrate over Ru surface, whereas catalysts with SMSI effect created a barrier between the substrate and the hydrogen dissociation sites. Spillover of dissociated H2 onto the V2O3 surface was found to enhance the catalytic activity. Thermodynamics calculations using density functional theory showed that transfer of a hydride from Ru and proton from V2O3 to the substrate have a lower reaction free energy compared to that of transfer of two hydrogen atoms from a bare ruthenium surface. Additionally, weaker adsorption of substrates and easier desorption of product from the Ru/V2O3 surface increased catalytic activity compared to that of bare ruthenium surface. We show that the general concept of using SMSI to mitigate poisoning can be applied to catalytic hydrogenation of substrates that adsorb on metal sites.

Published: October 2024

The extent of coordination-induced bond weakening in aquo and hydroxo ligands bonded to a molybdenum(III) center complexed by a dianionic, pentadentate ligand system was probed by reacting the known complex (B2Pz4Py)Mo(III)-NTf2, I, with degassed water or dry lithium hydroxide. The aquo adduct was not observed, but two LiNTf2 stabilized hydroxo complexes were fully characterized. Computational and experimental work showed that the O-H bond in these complexes were significantly weakened (to ≈ 57 kcal mol-), such that these compounds could be used to form the diamagnetic, d2 neutral molybdenum oxo complex (B2Pz4Py)Mo(IV)O, 2, by hydrogen atom abstraction using the aryl oxyl reagent ArO• (Ar = 2,4,6-tri-tert-butylphenyl). Oxidation of the neutral hydroxo derivative further facilitated production of 2 by significantly enhancing the acidity of the hydroxyl proton. Speciation in these processes was probed by electrochemical and chemical experiments. The terminal oxo complex 2 was smoothly oxidized by one electron to the cationic [(B2Pz4Py)Mo(V)O]+[A]- derivatives [2]+[A]- (A = NTf2 or Al[(OC(CF3)3]4 depending on the oxidizing agent used). Both Mo(IV) and Mo(V)+ oxo complexes were fully characterized and their nucleophilic and electrophilic reaction behavior probed by conducting reactions with the Lewis acid B(C6F5)3 and the Lewis base PPh3. Neutral oxo complex 2 reacts only with the Lewis acid, while the cationic [2]+[A]- reacts only with PPh3, the former by adduct formation, the latter via phosphine oxidation.

Published: October 2024

The properties of conducting polymers are strongly influenced by structural changes induced by long-range order, which can be achieved using block copolymers that self-assemble into crystalline structures. These blends result in unique mesophases distinct from the pure components, with self-assembly behavior modulated by solution conditions and polymer architectures. High-throughput small angle x-ray scattering data of aqueous Pluronic P123 (PEO20- PPO70-PEO20) and conjugated polyelectrolyte poly[3-(potassium-4-butanoate) thiophene-2,5-diyl] (PPBT) blends at various concentrations and temperatures were automatically classified into phase maps by autophasemap, an unsupervised statistical analysis algorithm. The outlined phase boundaries revealed that adding PPBT to high P123 concentrations induced a transition from cubic-ordered spherical micelles to hexagonally packed cylindrical micelles. Shear alignment via rheological small angle neutron scattering of the blends produced monolithic oriented cubic and hexagonal crystal gels. These insights into the self-assembly of conductive polymer blends will aid in the design of soft materials with tunable structural and electronic properties.

Published: October 2024

Objective: A comprehensive meta-analysis based on the latest randomized controlled trials (RCTs) was conducted to investigate the effects of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) on patients undergoing treatment after inguinal hernia surgery. Methods: A detailed search of Embase, PubMed, Web of Science, and the Cochrane Library was performed for RCTs investigating the use of TENS during inguinal hernia surgery up to September 28, 2021. The Cochrane tool was applied to assess the risk of bias in the included studies. Results: Seven eligible RCTs with a total of 379 cases were included. The meta-analysis showed a mean difference (MD) in VAS of -1.61 [95% CI: -2.20 – -1.02, P < 0.00001] at 2 hours post-operation, VAS MD = -1.33 at 4 hours post-operation [95% CI: -2.84 – -0.18, P = 0.09], VAS MD = -2.36 at 8 hours post-operation [95% CI: -4.04 – -0.69, P = 0.006], and VAS MD = -1.75 at 24 hours post-operation [95% CI: -2.64 – -0.85, P = 0.0001]. The cortisol level MD at 24 hours post-operation was -52.56 [95% CI: -168.8 – -63.76, P = 0.38]. Conclusion: TENS significantly reduces postoperative pain following inguinal hernia surgery and promotes patient recovery. TENS is recommended for patients undergoing inguinal hernia surgery. However, further high-quality studies are needed to confirm additional effects.

Authors: Yang Xiaodong , Chung Gi Young
Published: October 2024

As e-commerce continues to mature, the advantages of live streaming within the industry have become increasingly apparent, offering significant growth opportunities. Social e-commerce platforms, which are user-centered, integrate social networks with e-commerce by leveraging social interactions to drive product sales and enhance the overall consumer shopping experience. This type of e-commerce fosters engagement and promotes products by merging online communities with shopping behavior, creating a more interactive and dynamic marketplace. It not only retains the traditional e-commerce trading and marketing functions but also adds a social dimension, making live stream anchors crucial figures connecting consumers with products. These anchors can attract consumers with their appearance and charm, and use their expertise on live streaming platforms to guide consumers by recommending live content. They can also interact with their audiences and potentially influence them to purchase the recommended goods. It is evident that the attributes of anchors in live streaming rooms significantly impact consumers’ online behavior. Therefore, researching how platform contextual factors regulate consumers’ online behavior is of great practical significance. This study employs multilevel regression analysis to support its hypotheses using data. The findings indicate that contextual factors of the platform significantly influence online behavior, enhancing the positive relationship between user attachment and online activities.
A Study on the Structural Impact of FLNG Topside Piperack Module Enlargement
Authors: Lee Eun-Hak , Lee Tak-Kee
Published: October 2024

To minimize the production time of floating liquefied natural gas (FLNG) units, which are eco-friendly offshore structures, builders are exploring methods to extend the length of piperacks. This approach aims to reduce the number of installations and equipment required. In this study, a static stability analysis (in-place analysis) was conducted using the structural analysis computer system (SACS), a program for analyzing topside structures, to assess the effects of piperack enlargement. Two models were analyzed: the original piperack and a version with double the length. Both models were based on data from an existing FLNG unit, with identical environmental loads applied. The results showed that while relative displacement increased linearly with length, the stress did not follow the same linear pattern. However, stress levels in some braces at the base of the structure increased, indicating the need for larger structural members. From the perspective of in-place analysis, piperack enlargement appears feasible. However, further investigation, including fatigue analysis and assessments of operational and maintenance challenges, is recommended to confirm its long-term viability.

In the grand tapestry of socialist construction with Chinese characteristics for the new era, the implementation of the strategy to forge an educational powerhouse holds profound significance for the modernization of socialism with Chinese characteristics and the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. Delving into the essence and objectives of this educational powerhouse strategy, it becomes evident that transcends mere expansion of educational scale and enhancement of quality. Rather, it accentuates education's pivotal role in buttressing national competitiveness and sustainable development. This strategy aims to cultivate socialist builders and successors who are comprehensively developed in moral, intellectual, physical, aesthetic, and labor dimensions, thereby providing the talent reservoir and intellectual bedrock for realizing the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. The backdrop of a new wave of globalization, the twin challenges of constructing a modern educational system, modernizing educational governance capabilities, and nurturing a cohort of innovative talents aligned with the demands of our times have emerged as critical issues confronting humanity collectively.
Lagrange expansion formula and its application in combinatorial mathematics
Authors: Li Na
Published: October 2024

There is a uniqueness theorem for an implicit function. When a function satisfies certain conditions, the equation can determine a unique implicit function. However, we cannot determine the display expression of the implicit function according to this theorem. The Lagrange expansion formula just compensates for this disadvantage, which explicitly gives the display expression of the implicit function. This paper will give a simpler proof of the Lagrange expansion formula and provide examples to illustrate its application in combinatorial mathematics.

Purpose: The purpose of this article is to examine the relationship between the level of boredom experienced at work and the strategies chosen as the most effective - either offensive (non-escapist strategies, i.e., strategies for enriching the employee experience) or defensive (boreout strategies/escapist strategies) - strategies for dealing with this experience. This requires first developing a typology of offensive strategies. Design/methodology/approach: A diagnostic survey was used to obtain data, and to verify the hypothesis, an attendance analysis and an index of deviation from equal distribution were applied separately to the two aforementioned groups of strategies. The survey included questions based on an abbreviated version of the Boredom Vulnerability Scale and a typology of boreaut strategies in the literature. Findings: It was confirmed that independently from the level of perceived boredom at work may be preferred defined offensive and defensive behavioral strategies. Research limitations/implications: The limitations of the survey are related to the diagnostic survey method used. The methodological and empirical knowledge gained is intended to improve the methodology of planned future nationwide representative surveys. Practical implications: The results of the survey may be useful to employers who want to understand employees' experiences of boredom and who want to improve those experiences - in line with the Employee Experience idea. Social implications: Boredom at work can imply undesirable behaviors and financial consequences for employers. They are associated with, among other things, the deterioration of employees' health and their counterproductive conduct. Originality/value: The originality relates to the included research context (Employee Experience) and the typology of non-escapist strategies proposed based on this context, as well as to - relating to employee behavioral strategies towards boredom - the results of empirical studies differentiating defensive and offensive strategies. Keywords: boredom at work, boreout strategies, work experience enrichment strategies, Employee Experience. Category of the paper: Research paper.

Purpose: The goal of this research is to provide a practical demonstration of the tier-captive SBS/RS system's step-by-step implementation procedure. This includes making the necessary modifications to the warehouse's operating system, a comparison of investment efficiency, and an examination of the specific advantages and disadvantages of the implemented system. Design/methodology/approach: The article follows case study method, focusing on one deliberate chosen enterprise, utilizing mixed methods research: two in-depth interviews with warehouse managers, WMS (Warehouse Management System) and Kisoft data analysis. Findings: The distribution company found that tier-captive SBS/RS system solutions in warehouses can improve efficiency, reduce employee numbers, and increase speed. The automated warehoused equipped with tier-captive SBS/RS system achieved higher picking efficiency and a shorter picking time. However, implementing these solutions requires overcoming financial barriers, proper training, and addressing human errors. Despite these challenges, the company continues to update IT systems, inspect parts, and replace parts. Despite these benefits, personnel will never be completely replaced by these systems, as they will still be responsible for controlling processes, making changes, and making changes where errors occur. Research limitations: Case studies by definition may lead to an external validity; the chosen sample may hardly allow for necessary generalization; triangulation methods allow for mistakes such as biased information, cause errors due to inappropriate question construction, inaccuracies, or attempts to present the company from a better perspective or maintain anonymity. Originality/value: The use of case study method provides unique perspective into the well- researched field of literature and detailed insight into a highly secure field of innovation deployment into the warehouse system. Keywords: warehousing, AS/RS, SBS/RS, tier-captive. Category of the paper: Case study.

Purpose: The article aims to discuss the use of digital tools, policy frameworks, collaboration, challenges, and future prospects related to natural values in the context of local governance. The main objective of this article is to explore the emergence and significance of natural values in the digital economy era and to examine how local communities are adapting to this phenomenon. Design/methodology/approach: The advent of the digital economy has brought about transformative changes in various sectors, including local governance. This paper explores the emerging concept of "Natural Values" in the context of sustainable development within local government units (LGUs). Knowledge of natural resources and their condition is also the basis for advertising and marketing activities. This should become an important argument for the development of tourism or other industries with less pressure on the natural environment. In connection with the digital transformation of the global economy, local self-government is also increasingly using digital technologies. Findings: The study embraced an adaptive approach, recognizing that the natural values represent a novel phenomenon in the digital economy era, encompassing the recognition, preservation, and utilization of natural resources and ecosystems for the benefit of society. From the point of view of protection of natural resources, complete and up-to-date information and its availability are necessary for solving most tasks. Lack of relevant knowledge can lead to incomplete protection of valuable natural objects and territories, or negligence in the field of technical infrastructure or negative economic activity can cause adverse changes in the state of natural resources. Research limitations/implications: The implications of this study underscore the importance of stakeholder engagement and adaptive management for effective integration. Practical implications suggest the need for policy coordination, capacity building, and innovative incentive mechanisms to foster harmonious coexistence between natural values of territories and economic development digitalization. Originality/value: This study delves into the evolving role of LGUs in harnessing natural values, fostering sustainable development, and contributing to the broader discourse on environmental preservation and economic growth. These results could be especially interesting for researchers whose studies are interdisciplinary. Keywords: natural values, territorial communities, territorial authorities, economic effects, ecosystem, ecosystem services. Category of the paper: Research paper. JEL: O44, G28, Q57.

ESL learners' perceptions of using High-Variability Phonetic Training (HVPT) through YouGlish to improve pronunciation skills
Authors: Mahmood Rizgar Qasim
Published: October 2024

This study explores ESL learners' perceptions of using high-variability phonetic training (HVPT) through YouGlish to improve pronunciation skills. Data were collected through an online questionnaire completed by 70 upper-intermediate level ESL learners and semi-structured interviews with 20 learners. The collected data were analyzed statistically and thematically. The results revealed that the majority of learners had significantly positive attitudes towards using this online tool. They reported that YouGlish assisted them in accurately learning how to pronounce words and phrases from a variety of accents, including Australian, British, and American. Additionally, while learners had positive perceptions of using HVPT and YouGlish for pronunciation improvement, they emphasized the critical role of teachers in providing explicit corrective feedback and additional clarifications. Furthermore, the participants also reported some drawbacks of YouGlish. This study offers both theoretical and pedagogical implications for language learning and teaching.
