Review paper on impact of behavioral biases in financial decision- making
Authors: A. J. Vaid  , Renu Chaudhary
Published: November 2022

Traditional finance is constructed on four principles which are portfolio principles of Markowitz, the arbitrage principles of Miller and Modigliani, the capital asset pricing model of Sharpe, Lintner and Black and the option-pricing model of Black, Scholes, and Merton, These principles conclude that the market is efficient and competent. Patrons of traditional finance recommend that individual behavior frequently reflect rationality. EMH of Samuelson also explains that people behave rationally, maximize their expected utility and process all available information. EMH states that stock prices reflect all the available information. It is impossible to “beat the market” consistently on a risk adjusted basis since market price should only react to available information. Proponents of traditional finance state that the market and investors who access the market are rational. But in reality investors cannot act rationally all time. They are frequently influenced by psychological factors like state of mind, emotions, trading theories, values and interpretation of information, which mislead them to act as irrational investors, (Kahneman and Tversky). Daniel Kahneman and Amos Tversky were known as the fathers of behavioural finance. Though, many literary works are carried out by them in behavioural finance. Proponent were advocate that investors behavior influence by psychological bias. From the above findings, it concludes that Most of the standard finance theories give more importance to fundamental factors instead of give importance to decision making process of individuals. Therefore, there is necessitating developing modern finance to study these irregularities. The main aim of this paper is to study how psychological factors influence the investment behavior of individuals through review of literature from secondary sources like Journals, Magazines, Books etc. The study also has tried to discover the relationship between the behavioral biases and the investment decisions of the individual investors of stock market. The result of the study will help investors to improve their decision making process through identifying the most important behavioural finance factor.
An Empirical Study on the Effects of Mindfulness, Embodied Cognition, Behavioral Intention and Altruism on Job Satisfaction of Employees, Customer Satisfaction and Their Repurchase Intentions
Authors: ŞEHİRLİ Mustafa
Published: November 2022

This article aimed to reveal the effects of four different psychological approaches for employees to be satisfied with their jobs and consequently to increase the customers' intentions to prefer them again. These four different approaches are mindfulness, embodied cognition, behavioral intention, and altruism. In the study, one concrete behavior that is thought to represent each of these four different approaches was tested. These behaviors are respectively feeling high energy (mindfulness), listening while with mouth slightly opened (embodied cognition), thinking of the self as eager to show high interest (behavioral intention), and asking questions (altruism). Theatrical applications were carried out with a total of 571 participants from three different profile groups (healthcare employees, automotive service employees and students) in an educational environment, with four different scenarios and eight different versions and the results were statistically compared and analyzed. As a result of the research, it was determined that the four behaviors in question increased employees' job satisfaction, customers' satisfaction, and repurchase intentions, but that there were no significant differences between them in terms of their effects. This research reveals that simple and individual attitude and behavior changes could lead to significant business outcomes such as customer loyalty.
Nykytaidekasvatus toisintekemisenä ekososiaalisten kriisien aikakaudella
Authors: Foster Raisa
Published: November 2022

Artikkelin tarkoituksena on pohtia nykytaidekasvatuksen mahdollisuuksia haastaa modernismin oletuksia – järkiperäistämistä ja yksilökeskeisyyttä, välineellistämistä ja kulutuskeskeisyyttä, mekanismia ja uskoa jatkuvaan kasvuun sekä keskusta-ajattelua – ja näin toimia ekososiaalisena oikeudenmukaisuuskasvatuksena. Ekososiaalisen oikeudenmukaisuuden viitekehys auttaa näkemään sosiaalisten ja ekologisten ongelmien yhteyden, ja se antaa myös kasvattajalle välineitä modernistisen maailmankuvan ja ihmiskäsityksen haastamiseen. Ensiksi artikkelissa tarkastellaan sitä, miten nykytaiteesta ammentavat moniaistisuutta ja yhteisöllisyyttä korostavat taidekasvatusprojektit voivat haastaa järkiperäistämisen ja yksilökeskeisyyden ylivaltaa ja auttaa kasvamaan kohti kokonaisvaltaista kehollista maailmasuhdetta. Toiseksi artikkelissa pohditaan sitä, miten konkreettisen aineellisen lopputuloksen sijaan taiteen prosessiluonteisuutta ja aineettomuutta korostava nykytaidekasvatus voi haastaa välinearvoista ja kuluttamiseen keskittyvää elämäntapaa ja kutsua myös esiin itseisarvoista todellisuuskäsitystä. Kolmanneksi artikkelissa ehdotetaan, että taidekasvatus määriteltäisiin uudestaan niin, ettei se korostaisi mekaanista ja kehitysuskoistasuhtautumista taiteen tekemiseen ja oppimiseen, vaan innostaisi ihmiset taiteellisten kokemusten avulla heittäytymään tuntemattomaan ja havahtumaan uudenlaiseen ymmärrykseen. Neljänneksi artikkeli tarkastelee sitä, kuinka nykytaidekasvatus voi opettaa kriittisyyttä mies-, ihmis- ja etnokeskeistä ajattelua kohtaan ja auttaa näin arvostamaan maailman moninaisuutta ja vastavuoroisuutta. Lopuksi artikkelissa esitetään, että juuri vaihtoehtoisissa ajattelumalleissa ja toisintekemisessä piilee nykytaiteen merkittävin pedagoginen mahdollisuus muutoksessa kohti kestävämpää tulevaisuutta.
Tönniesin Gemeinschaft yhteisönä
Authors: Nordbäck Anu
Published: November 2022

Lähiyhteisöä pidetään sosiaalipedagogiikassa tärkeänä kasvatuksellisena tekijänä, ja Ferdinand Tönniesin (1855–1936) Gemeinschaft ja Gesellschaft -teorian katsotaan vaikuttaneen personalistisen sosiaalipedagogiikan teoriaperinteeseen. Yhteisöksi käännettynä Gemeinschaft välittyy lämpimänä ja tavoitellumpana kasvatusympäristönä kuin kylmäksi ja laskelmointiin perustuvaksi katsottu yhteiskunta eli Gesellschaft. Tässä artikkelissa tarkastelen, millainen yhteisömuoto Tönniesin Gemeinschaft olisi ja olisiko se sosiaalipedagogisesti tavoiteltava kasvatusympäristö. Tarkastelen Gemeinschaftia sosiaalipedagogiikan yleisen ja erityisen tehtävän näkökulmasta hermeneuttisesti. Tulkintaa rakennan Tönniesin vuonna 1887 ensimmäisen kerran julkaistun Gemeinschaft und Gesellschaft -teoksen kahdeksannen painoksen, sen englanninkielisten käännösten ja teoksesta aiemmin tehtyjen tutkimusten pohjalta.Tehdyssä tulkinnassa Gemeinschaft määrittyy ideaalikäsitteeksi, joka kuvaa yksilön spontaaniin tahtoon eli Wesenwilleen perustuvaa yhteisömuotoa. Sosiaalipedagogiikan yleisen ja erityisen tehtävän näkökulmasta tarkasteltuna Gemeinschaft tarjoaa yksilöä kokonaisvaltaisesti sivistävän ja sosialisaatiota tukevan kasvuympäristön, mutta se torjuu kriittisyyden ja emansipatoriset pyrkimykset. Tällöin muodostuu tarve yksilön autonomian tukemiseen ja reflektiivisen tietoisuuden herättämiseen. Gemeinschaftista tulkinnassa muodostunut kuva eksklusiivisena ja eriarvoisuuteen perustuvana sosiaalisena kokonaisuutena ei näyttäydy tavoiteltavana kasvuympäristönä, jos sellaisena pidetään tasavertaisessa ja vastavuoroisessa suhteessa vapaasta tahdostaan toimivien persoonien muodostamaa kokonaisuutta.Tönnies itse määrittää Gemeinschaftin ja Gesellschaftin mittavälineiksi, joilla voidaan hahmottaa reaalimaailman sosiaalisia kokonaisuuksia ja tarkastella yksilön rationaalistumiskehitystä. Reaalimaailmasta niitä tai niiden taustalla olevia tahtomuotoja ei ole mahdollista puhtaana löytää.
Tragedia y ambivalencia en el Austrias Carmen de Juan Latino. ¿Un poema a los vencedores o a los vencidos en Lepanto?
Authors: Bernabeu Torreblanca Noelia
Published: November 2022

This paper analyses some passages of Juan Latino’s Austrias Carmen (1573) that stand out for their great pathos and their ambivalence in the treatment of the characters. Here, the poet shows the horrors of war, calls the Christian fleet into question and brings to the forefront the virtues and sufferings of the Turks. However, he does not stop celebrating the victory and takes sides for the Spanish monarchy and Christianity. This study aims to demonstrate that the poem’s ambiguity lies in its imitation of Virgil’s Aeneid and, in part, of Lucan’s Pharsalia, and, furthermore, that it does not contradict the propagandistic or laudatory tone of Juan Latino’s poetic production. This hypothesis is supported by literary examples, as well as by historical and biographical facts which prove the poet’s adhesion to the Empire and his complete integration into Spanish society.

Published: November 2022

The work is devoted to the physiological and hygienic safety of the use of LED light sources, the analysis of domestic and foreign materials, the analysis of working conditions and training when using LED lamps. The literature was searched in the databases Scopus, Web of Science, etc. The study of the biological effect of light on humans remains an urgent problem of lighting hygiene. The authors of the article outlined their attitude to a number of scientific papers on this issue, choosing the most significant ones. The authors of the article studied over 23 works on the scientific study of the effect of LED lighting on the human body in comparison with fluorescent and incandescent paws. The studies carried out to assess the impact of LED lighting on the functional state and performance of railway workers using approved professional selection methods revealed negative changes. This was expressed in a slight decrease in the functional resistance to color discrimination of green and red signals, as well as in an increase in the response time of a complex visual-motor reaction and a significant decrease in the readiness for emergency action of the examined persons. Studies have shown that LED lighting affects not only the eyes, but also the human hormonal system, its psychophysiological state, performance and fatigue. Ethics. This study did not require an ethics committee opinion.

The article proposes a computational method for determining the concentrations of pollutants inside a ventilated or cleaned room, taking into account the initial conditions and parameters of the flow rate, incoming or purified air, the volume of the room, the initial concentrations of the pollutant in the atmospheric air and in the room air, the parameters of the efficiency of the air cleaner. The article proposes the solution of two mass transfer equations under known initial conditions for two methods of cleaning rooms. When solving the first equation, a direct mass transfer calculation was carried out, which makes it possible to determine the effect of natural or artificial ventilation used indoors with small linear dimensions on the change in the concentration of the selected air polluting substance in the form of a chemical compound or an aerosol containing biological or chemical pollutants. When solving the second equation, a direct mass transfer calculation was carried out, which makes it possible to determine the effect of the operation of an air purifier used indoors with small linear dimensions on the change in the concentration of the selected air polluting substance in the form of a chemical compound or an aerosol containing biological or chemical pollutants. Calculations allow us to determine the time during which a residential office or industrial space is saturated with pollutants or cleaned to the required air quality standards, taking into account the influence of factors such as pollution of the surface layers of atmospheric air, the appearance of pollutants inside the room, the performance and efficiency of ventilation or air purification systems. The proposed calculation methods can be used to determine changes in the quality of indoor air over time, including taking into account changes in oxygen concentrations and pollutants indoors, determining the effectiveness of ventilation and air purification systems of various capacities in residential, office, medical and industrial premises. Ethics. The study does not require the submission of a biomedical ethics committee opinion or other documents.

Le retour des filles prodigues. Dépaysement, extranéité et altérité chez Malika Mokeddem et Kaouther Adimi
Authors:   Universitatea din Bucureşti, Luică Larissa , Necula Simona ,   Universitatea din Bucureşti
Published: November 2022

This article proposes to analyse the novels L’Interdite by Malika Mokeddem, Des pierres dans ma poche and L’Envers des autres by Kaouther Adimi from the perspective of presence of exile and expatriation themes and, corollary, of identity construction. By trying to shed light on the different characters, both female and male, and by drawing parallels and comparisons between the two novelists, we will strive to account for the way in which their characters experience both the distance from their country of origin, Algeria, and the difficult return to their roots. The question of identity thus arises twofold: on the one hand, the feeling of a certain extraneity in relation to others, on whichever side of the Mediterranean they may be, and on the other hand, an identity crisis with respect to oneself (one’s body, one’s gender, one’s psychological links with certain social and cultural constructions). These two aspects are not completely dichotomous, but maintain a very close relationship that is not at all unrelated to the characters’ malaise.
La création comme art de respiration chez Valère Novarina
Authors:   Universitatea din Bucureşti, Florescu Fabiana
Published: November 2022

We can often find in the works of Valère Novarina a momentous meditation on the dramatic arts, along with an elaborate interrogation of the creativity (as inspiration) and creation (as respiration). While we can translate his approach in a poetical and respiratory manner, Novarina is constantly developing a logodynamic and respiratory perspective, simultaneously based on a particular poetical inquiry and a renewal regarding the Derridean concept of parole soufflée. The present article was written to analyze how Novarina conceives the narrow relation between poetics and both symbolic and concrete acts of breathing. Through the writings and performances of Valère Novarina, the breathing emerges as the catalyst for the poetical force, but also as an expression of the body and space interactions in contemporary theatre. Furthermore, we will examine the novarinian perspective on the poetical embodiment of the creation as a work in progress.

Authors: Luisa Cláudia
Published: November 2022

Contexto e Objetivo: Em Portugal, como na maior parte dos países do Mundo, atravessamos uma conjuntura de graves desigualdades sociais, fenómenos de exclusão social e pobreza, aumento do desemprego e falta de oportunidades, situações agravadas pela Pandemia da COVID-19. Deste modo, o objetivo principal do estudo foi conhecer as perceções dos educadores sociais, a trabalhar no Algarve, acerca dos impactos da pandemia na sua vida profissional. Como objetivos específicos pretendia-se fazer uma caracterização sociodemográfica dos educadores sociais; conhecer as principais dificuldades que sentiram em contexto profissional durante a pandemia; identificar as suas estratégias de superação bem como conhecer a sua opinião acerca do respeito pelos direitos humanos. Método: É um estudo de natureza exploratória e descritiva, com abordagem qualitativa. A amostra foi por conveniência, e abrangeu 32 educadores sociais. A recolha de dados foi realizada através de inquéritos por questionário, preenchidos no Google Forms, constituídos por questões maioritariamente abertas. As respostas foram sujeitas a análise de conteúdo. Resultados: Os resultados permitiram identificar as dificuldades sentidas pelos educadores sociais em contexto profissional, nomeadamente a dificuldade na gestão dos recursos humanos, dada a falta de pessoas e também a dificuldade em manter o distanciamento social. A maioria dos respondentes considera que os direitos humanos foram negligenciados quer no seu local de trabalho quer na sociedade. Conclusões: Pensa-se que será um futuro complexo e de muito trabalho para os educadores sociais e para todas as pessoas envolvidas nos processos de tomada de decisão, implementação e avaliação de atividades e projetos, como forma de ultrapassar os desígnios deixados pela pandemia da COVID-19.

Who’s Cheating on Your Survey? A Detection Approach with Digital Trace Data
Authors: Munzert Simon , Ramirez-Ruiz Sebastian , Barberá Pablo , Guess Andrew Markus , Yang JungHwan
Published: November 2022

In this note, we provide direct evidence of cheating in online assessments of political knowledge. We combine survey responses with web tracking data of a German and a US online panel to assess whether people turn to external sources for answers. We observe item-level prevalence rates of cheating that range from 0 to 12 percent depending on question type and difficulty, and find that 23 percent of respondents engage in cheating at least once across waves. In the US panel, which employed a commitment pledge, we observe cheating behavior among less than 1 percent of respondents. We find robust respondent- and item-level characteristics associated with cheating. However, item-level instances of cheating are rare events; as such, they are difficult to predict and correct for without tracking data. Even so, our analyses comparing naive and cheating-corrected measures of political knowledge provide evidence that cheating does not substantially distort inferences.
Emotion regulation strategy use and forecasting in response to dynamic, multimodal stimuli

Published: November 2022

Successful emotion regulation (ER) requires effective strategy selection. Research suggests that disengagement strategies (e.g., distraction) are more often selected than engagement strategies (e.g., reappraisal) as emotional experiences intensify. However, the extent to which ER strategy choice in controlled circumstances reflects strategy usage during complex, multimodal events is not well understood. The present research uses dynamic, multimodal stimuli (i.e., a haunted house, horror movies) to examine the association between affective intensity and regulatory strategy usage among untrained participants – individuals given no prior regulation instructions or direction. Both a preliminary study (n = 54) and Study 1 (n = 118) failed to find relationships between emotional intensity and strategy usage to downregulate emotions as participants navigated a haunted house. Distraction was self-reported to be less successful than reappraisal at high intensities, contrary to expectations. Participants in Study 2 (n = 152) forecasted regulation strategy usage based upon descriptions of emotionallyregulated experiences from the preliminary haunted house study. Affective intensity predicted which strategies forecasters predicted they would use; though, forecasters overpredicted how often distraction was used in practice. Study 3 (n = 242) incorporated strategy usage and forecasting within the same design by showing untrained participants video stimuli of varying-intensity and capturing their regulatory responses. Forecasters again predicted using distraction more often than strategy users did in practice. Forecasters also overpredicted how effectively distraction reduced negative affective intensity relative to what strategy users reported. These results may highlight a disconnect between strategy fittedness when self-regulation occurs in uncontrolled, highlyintense, or complex circumstances.
Workplace Experiences of LGBTQIA+ Academics in Psychology, Psychiatry, and Neuroscience
Authors: Pagliaccio David
Published: November 2022

People identifying as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, intersex, or asexual (LGBTQIA+) often face workplace bias or discrimination. Unique dynamics in academic neuroscience, psychology, and psychiatry warrant specific investigation. Participants (N=534) completed an online survey assessing identity and workplace experiences. Many respondents were not out about their identity at work (46%) despite most being out personally (81%). Positive workplace climate was critical to outness (OR=4.13, t=6.78, p<.001), career satisfaction (b=0.47, t=8.57, p<.001), and mental health (b=-1.48, t=-3.50, p=.001). Experiences of exclusionary behavior (24%) and depression (37%) were exceedingly common. Qualitative responses called for explicit LGBTQIA+ inclusion in diversity and classroom curricula, structural and financial support for LGBTQIA+ people, and greater support for intersectional identities and trans individuals. Respondents expressed a pervasive sentiment that academic institutions should avoid putting undue, unpaid burden of diversity work on minoritized individuals while promoting meaningful structural change rather than creating the appearance of inclusivity.
English Education Students' Attitude toward Autonomous Learning Amidst the Abundant Online Learning Sources
Authors: Kurniawati Atin
Published: November 2022

The development of information and communication technology has provided various learning resources that can be accessed by students anytime and anywhere, including for learning languages. This should provide benefits for improving studentsâ€™ language skills. This article explored several things related to the use of online learning resources by students majoring in English Education, including three problem statements, namely: (1) what kind of online learning activities did the students do for autonomous learning purposes? ; (2) what kind of improvement did they obtain from autonomous online learning activities? ; (3) what were the challenges they found in using online learning sources for autonomous learning activities? This study utilized quantitative and qualitative data to provide detailed description. Furthermore, the data was analyzed thematically. This study revealed that students tended to use social media, Youtube, and university LMS for their autonomous learning. Their reported that their autonomous learning improved their English skills, especially in listening, speaking and vocabulary mastery. It was influenced by their interest in certain skills and the learning resources they accessed. The challenges associated with online autonomous learning were unstable connections, lack of clear learning goals, and low student motivation. Several implications and recommendations are also discussed in this study.
Research on Language Teachers’ Emotion Labour and Emotional Well-being.  A Critical Analysis and Suggestions for Further Research
Authors: Blake Charlotte Elizabeth , Dewaele Jean-Marc
Published: November 2022

This critical overview examines the body of literature on language instructors’ emotion labour, with the aim of providing insights into the aspects of teachers’ work that positively and negatively impact their emotional well-being, as well as possible strategies to help them flourish.  Research in this novel area was divided into three broadly chronological categories for analysis: pioneering studies, qualitative studies with a specific focus, and more methodologically diverse studies. The findings indicated that societal attitudes influenced the institution, resulting in differing levels of pressure or support experienced by the teachers.  Emotion labour was found to stem from teachers’ beliefs conflicting with those held at an institutional level or beyond, as well as from interactions with the learners, and could have positive and/or negative outcomes.  One of the worst possible outcomes is burn-out. Agency, empathy, and reflection were among the strategies to emerge with the potential to neutralise negative outcomes. The article concludes with suggestions for further research.
Values and meanings of the main judicial act xx century: axiological concepts of the book A.N. Savenkov “Nuremberg: A Verdict for name of Peace” (Discussion materials)
Authors: Kholikov Ivan V.
Published: November 2022

In 2021, the Prospect Publishing House published the monograph “Nuremberg: A Verdict for name of Peace” by the Director of the Institute of State and Law of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Corresponding Member of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Doctor of Law, Professor, Honored Lawyer of the Russian Federation A.N. Savenkov. Publication of this book aroused cognitive scientific interest, a response in the legal community and a wide discussion on the pages of leading legal publications. The author invites the reader to return to the most dramatic pages of human history through a consistent description and explanation of the prerequisites for the emergence of the International Military Tribunal, the events that led to its creation, as well as the actions of all participants in the main trial of the 20th century. From the point of view of the author’s analysis, this article can be called axiological notes on the margins of A.N. Savenkov’s monograph “Nuremberg: A Verdict for name of Peace”. When considering the essence and content of the monograph, the authors apply an axiological approach, which implies a consistent study of existential, legal, moral and other values characteristic of the Nuremberg Trial in terms of its universal purpose and the meanings that the author himself reveals and gives it. The outcome of the discussion and conceptualization is the fixation of the values and meanings characteristic of the main international legal humanistic act of judicial law enforcement of the 20th century.
Higher Entrepreneurship Education: Guidelines for the Formation and Mitigation of Restrictions
Authors: Rubin Yu. B. , Mozhzhukhin D. P.
Published: November 2022

The publication focuses on the guidelines for the formation of entrepreneurship education as an important direction in the space of Russian higher education. Based on the functional map of entrepreneurship as a special type of professional activity and the allocation of groups of professional entrepreneurial functions, the article substantiates the appropriateness of including professional entrepreneurship competencies in educational programs on entrepreneurship. The formation of entrepreneurship competencies in graduates is regarded as achieving key learning outcomes based on the application of competency-based and practice-oriented approaches. In this conceptual context, the prospects for the implementation of the «Startup as a Diploma» program are considered.

It is noted that in the absence of agreement on the recognition of entrepreneurship as an independent direction of higher education in the Russian Federation, universities are forced to search for non-standard ways to build entrepreneurship education programs aimed at the formation of necessary competencies by graduates. The authors draw attention to the possibility for graduates to obtain professional qualifications simultaneously in two types of professional activity as a result of mastering educational programs on entrepreneurship in universities, which traditionally have an industry orientation.

The current results of the activities of the Federal Innovative Educational Platform created for the development of models of continuous entrepreneurship education have shown inexpediency of compulsory inclusion of entrepreneurship programs in bachelor’s and master’s degrees in management. The article supports the idea of separating entrepreneurship education as an independent direction of higher education in Russia and provides the corresponding arguments.
How to Evaluate Students’ Entrepreneurial Projects? International Experience and Recommendations for Application in Russia
Authors: Sorokin P. S. , Morozova E. V. , Pavlyuk D. , Redko T. D.
Published: November 2022

Quality assessment of entrepreneurship education and its’ results is an important problem in higher education. The task becomes even more relevant with the necessity of technological modernization in times of economic crisis. In particular, it is necessary to develop a system of criteria that would not only serve educational purposes, but also simulate the emerging of new market enterprises, which remains problematic so far now, despite the active measures from the government to support student initiatives. The lack of attention towards contemporary international ratings in the field of startup evaluation appears to be a significant limitation. Analysis of the related field will help with defining the criteria for entrepreneurial project assessment. The present paper aims to fill this gap. As a result, suggestions for projects’ evaluation were developed that include both financial and non-financial criteria, applicable to the student initiatives, and taking into account their specifics.
Organizational and Pedagogical Modeling of Entrepreneurship Education in Higher Education: Psychological Aspect
Authors: Voronina R. N. , Makhmutova E. N.
Published: November 2022

The article provides an analysis of approaches to the entrepreneurship education organization at university with an example of an empirical study of its psychological and pedagogical components. The relevance of the student entrepreneurship competencies in all areas of training is due to the request for the implementation of the cross-functional principle in modern management. The basis of such formation is mastering by students of a three-level structure: the competencies fostering the development of an entrepreneur personality, creating projects and entrepreneurial interaction. A systematic understanding of students’ entrepreneurship competencies is reflected in the model of entrepreneurship learning in the framework of the university educational environment, which includes both infrastructural and psychological and pedagogical components that directly affect the personal development of students. The effectiveness of the entrepreneurship education model at the university was evaluated on a sample of 105 students of Sevastopol State University (SevGU). As a key individual psychological competence for the training of an entrepreneurial type specialist, we viewed the degree of responsibility for the results of activities (internality). The assessment of internality was carried out according to the method of diagnosing the level of subjective control, based on the concept of the locus of personality control. Comparison of the degree of responsibility of students was carried out between students majoring in management and students majoring in economics. The redesign of the educational process for management majors based on the model of entrepreneurship education at university created additional opportunities for the purposeful formation of entrepreneurial thinking among students and their development as future entrepreneurial managers. This modification of the organizational and pedagogical conditions was reflected in the results of the study. The value of internality (responsibility) on most of the presented scales is more than twice as high for management students than for economics students . The results of the study confirmed the importance of organizing entrepreneurial education at university for the development of personal qualities inherent in an entrepreneurship behavior model, gaining experience in solving entrepreneurship problems, and increasing the likelihood of successful implementation of professional activities by students.

Authors: Shchegoleva L. V. , Pakhomov S. I. , Gurtov V. A.
Published: November 2022

Pedagogical sciences occupy a significant place in the system of training and certification of highly qualified scientific personnel. During the period from 2011 to 2020, about 10 thousand dissertations were defended in pedagogical sciences, which is 6.5% of the total number of defenses within the entire certification system. The subject of dissertations should correspond to the challenges of modern society and be aimed at the topical problems of youth education. The purpose of the study is a general assessment of the system of training and certification of candidates and doctors of pedagogical sciences, the development and testing of a method for identifying the mainstream in the subject of dissertation research and quantifying the implementation of priority pedagogical research directions in dissertation works for a ten-year retrospective period.

The results of the analysis revealed a reduction in the number of dissertation defenses in pedagogical sciences, which is in line with the general trend of reducing defenses, aging of dissertation councils members, a small number of young doctors of sciences. Thematic analysis of dissertations has shown that research meets the challenges of modern society, while there is a slight thematic delay associated with the time duration of the procedure for preparing and defending a dissertation. The largest number of dissertations was devoted to various issues of higher education in comparison with the other levels of education. Among the academic disciplines, foreign language, mathematics, Russian language and computer science have gained the greatest popularity in the subject of dissertation research. The thematic mainstream includes the formation of professional and communication competencies.

The master’s degree is an obligatory stage for those who are planning to enter PhD. That is why it should have a clear academic track. Embedding the master’s degree in the academic track allows universities to sum up their efforts to support young scientists. There is an urgent need to support scientific centers in Russian universities. When the universities are competing for academic leadership, academic tracks become the ground for the development strategies.

Previous researches showed that most students were ready to choose an academic track when they were master’s students. Thus, the academic track starts long before entering the doctoral programs. The study results reveal that master’s students do not have an opportunity to build an individual academic track within “hybrid” master’s programs. The Russian master’s degree programs shortly involve young researchers in projects, and this applies to all types of universities, including the research ones. The structure and ways of involving students in science do not differ in undergraduate and postgraduate programs. Master’s students who choose academic track do it without changing the major program. However, this trend doesn’t cover all the students. Master’s students use academic tracks to upgrade their professional skills for the further career but not at university or scientific institution.

Authors: Zingel Rebecca , Jacob Louis , Smith Lee , Konrad Marcel , Kostev Karel
Published: November 2022

Background:

To date, no large study has examined the relationship between psoriasis and dementia in Germany.

Objective:

The aim of this study was to assess the association between psoriasis and the risk of all-cause dementia in patients followed in general practices in Germany.

Methods:

This retrospective cohort study is based on longitudinal data from the IQVIATM Disease Analyzer database and included patients with an initial diagnosis of psoriasis between January 1995 and December 2014 in 1,173 general practices in Germany. Patients without psoriasis were matched individually (1:1) to psoriasis patients using propensity scores. The main outcome of the study was the cumulative incidence of dementia diagnoses within up to 15 years of the index date. Univariate Cox proportional regression models were used to assess the relationship between psoriasis or psoriatic arthritis and dementia.

Results:

The present study included 10,583 patients with a diagnosis of psoriasis and 10,583 controls without psoriasis. After 15 years of follow-up, 22.0% of the psoriasis patients and 19.1% ( p < 0.001) of the non-psoriasis patients developed dementia. The incidence rate of dementia in 1,000 person-years was 15.0 in psoriasis patients and 11.9 in the non-psoriasis cohort. Psoriasis was significantly associated with a dementia risk (HR: 1.24; 95% CI: (1.14–1.35); p < 0.001). The association was stronger in patients with PsA (HR: 1.35; 95% CI: (0.98–1.86)) but this was not significant ( p = 0.070).

Conclusion:

The present study found a positive association between psoriasis and all-cause dementia in patients in general practices in Germany.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the clinical value of platelet and inflammatory factor activation in vascular endothelial injury in hypertension. METHODS: A total of 120 hypertension patients diagnosed in our hospital from December 2019 to June 2021 were enrolled as study objects (Hypertension group); besides, another cohort of 60 healthy people undergoing physical examination at the same period were recruited as the controls (Control group). Next, the baseline clinical characteristics of subjects in the two groups were recorded and compared. Specifically, a hematology analyzer was adopt for detecting the mean platelet volume (MPV), platelet distribution width (PDW) and platelet hematocrit (PCT); ELISA for the level of IL-6, IL-8 and TNF-α; PHILIPS EPIQ 7 C (a device assessing endothelial vasodilator function in a non-invasive fashion) for reactive hyperemia index (RHI); univariate and multivariate regression analysis for risk factors triggering endothelial dysfunction; and Spearman correlation analysis for the correlation of platelet activation indicators and inflammatory factor level with vascular endothelial function. RESULTS: Compared with the Control group, the patients in the Hypertension group exhibited higher levels of MPV, PDW, PCT, inflammatory factors (IL-6, IL-8 and TNF-α) and lower RHI. Moreover, Spearman correlation analysis showed a significant negative correlation of MPV, PDW, PCT, IL-6, IL-8 and TNF-α level with RHI level. In addition, univariate and multivariate regression analysis presented that MPV, PCT, IL-8 and TNF-α were risk factors for vascular endothelial dysfunction. CONCLUSION: The activation of platelet and inflammatory factor is closely related to vascular endothelial function injury in patients with hypertension. To be specifically, platelet and inflammatory factor activation can effectively reflect the vascular endothelial function injury in patients with hypertension and has high clinical value.
Study and analysis of various link predictions in knowledge graph: A challenging overview
Authors: Khobragade Anish Rajkumar , Ghumbre Shashikant U.
Published: November 2022

Knowledge Graph (KG) is the network which contains some topic-based entities, called nodes, and the associated information among the entities. Here, the concept in the knowledge graph is denoted by the tuple relationship, such that the ⟨entity1, predicate, entity2⟩. The entity in the knowledge graph is the abstract concepts based on the particular object, namely the organization, dataset, people, and some associated documentation. The big issue in the KG is that it consists of some incomplete information. The missing details can be identified by employing the knowledge graph completion (KGC) solution. KGC is the same as the link prediction concepts in the knowledge graphs. However, this concept is more complex that it does not predict the link relationship among the nodes but also the diversified information from the link relations. Hence this survey analyzes different methods of link prediction techniques, and this review provides a detailed review of 50 research papers concentrating on various methods, like embedding-based methods, deep learning methods, knowledge acquisition methods, ranking methods, and representation learning methods. The analysis is carried out with respect to the survey based on the publication year, research techniques, performance measures, dataset, toolset and achievement of the research methodologies. Also, the problems in the methods are explained in the research gaps and issues. Furthermore, the future extent of these research works is done based on the limitations identified from the existing research methods.
A novel approach for handling semantic trajectories on data warehouses
Authors: Garani Georgia , Arboleda Francisco Javier Moreno , Verykios Vassilios S.
Published: November 2022

A trajectory is a set of traces left by a moving object. It contains spatio-temporal information about where and when that object was, as well as other semantical relevant information. It is described by a continuation of movement. Data concerning moving objects and their trajectories can be stored in a Trajectory Data Warehouses for organization, managing, and analysis purposes. This work is dedicated to semantic trajectory data warehouses. A logical schema is proposed, called S-TrODW, where an object relational framework is used. The main novelty of the S-TrODW model is the integration of trajectories and their segments in the fact table by means of a nested relation. An algorithm is presented for transforming the flat star schema (with non-nested trajectory segments) to the S-TrODW schema. The proposal is validated through a case study dealing with freight transportation. A more natural modelling and queries formulation, as well as the improvement of query execution time are among the contributions of this paper compared to other works.

Background: First-degree relatives of individuals with late-onset Alzheimer’s disease (AD) have increased risk for AD, with children of affected parents at an especially high risk. Objective: We aimed to investigate default mode network connectivity, medial temporal cortex volume, and cognition in cognitively healthy (CH) individuals with (FH+) and without (FH-) a family history of AD, alongside amnestic mild cognitive impairment (aMCI) and AD individuals, to determine the context and directionality of dysfunction in at-risk individuals. Our primary hypothesis was that there would be a linear decline (CH FH- > CH FH+ > aMCI > AD) within the risk groups on all measures of AD risk. Methods: We used MRI and fMRI to study cognitively healthy individuals (n = 28) with and without AD family history (FH+ and FH-, respectively), those with aMCI (n = 31) and early-stage AD (n = 25). We tested connectivity within the default mode network, as well as measures of volume and thickness within the medial temporal cortex and selected seed regions. Results: As expected, we identified decreased medial temporal cortex volumes in the aMCI and AD groups compared to cognitively healthy groups. We also observed patterns of connectivity across risk groups that suggest a nonlinear relationship of change, such that the FH+ group showed increased connectivity compared to the FH- and AD groups (CH FH+ > CH FH- > aMCI > AD). This pattern emerged primarily in connectivity between the precuneus and frontal regions. Conclusion: These results add to a growing literature that suggests compensatory brain function in otherwise cognitively healthy individuals with a family history of AD.
