The study demonstrates that it is advisable to use project-based learning to develop foreign language competence in English Academic Writing among Bachelor students at non-linguistic Universities with a humanities focus since it allowed not only to clarify the content of English Academic Writing in the genres of survey report but also, in general, increased the effectiveness of foreign language training in this educational environment.
Reflection of traditional European fairy tales in children's stories by Roald Dahl
Authors: Savitskij Vladimir Mikhailovich , Cherkassova Elena Valeryevna
Published: July 2024

The purpose of the research is to find out how R. Dahl uses traditional European fairy tales in his stories. The authors analyze some children’s tales by the British writer R. Dahl, comparing them with traditional folklore European fairy tales, which enables the authors to estimate the amount of folklore fairy tales’ influence on R. Dahl’s tales for children. The scientific novelty of the research consists in establishing the types of intertextual connection between R. Dahl’s stories for children and traditional folklore fairy tales. As a result, it was discovered that traditional European fairy tales are reflected in R. Dahl’s children’s stories due to applying the following techniques: a) using elements of intertextuality in plot construction and image creation, which manifests itself in processing of plots, direct and indirect allusions, parody; b) using the same thematic basis, including the following moralistic themes: confrontation between good and evil; main character’s liberation; paradoxical retribution and triumph of justice.
Participles as a means of representing taxis (based on the material of the Tatar language)
Authors: Lutfullina Gulnara Firdavisovna
Published: July 2024

The article considers the category of taxis, which determines the chronology of events and their conjugacy on the time axis. The purpose of the study is to identify the potential of the participles of the Tatar language in the representation of the taxic meanings of succession, simultaneity and precedence. The research material was examples from the Tatar National corps "Tugan tel". The scientific novelty of the study consists in differentiating the forms of participles in accordance with the implemented basic values of the taxi category. As a result of the conducted research, it was found that the participles of the Tatar language are able to represent all taxic meanings within the utterance. The meanings represented by participles are differentiated according to their belonging to different time planes: present – simultaneity, past – preceding, future – following. The predicate expresses the main temporal localization. The participles of the present tense retain the value of the constancy of the attribute in action relative to any period. The most representative is the group of past and present participles without the meaning of multiplicity.

Authors: Baykova Alexandra Vasilyevna , Bukharov Valery Mikhailovich
Published: July 2024

In this article, the phenomenon of lying is considered in the discourse of political power. The purpose of the study is to identify the linguistic means by which false information is formed in the speech of American political figures. The scientific novelty of the undertaken research lies in the fact that for the first time the linguistic characteristics of false statements in political texts in English are described. The article describes the findings of a pilot study. The study used the Linguistic Inquiry and Word Count (LIWC-22) program for computer speech analysis. The program analyzed political statements classified as "true" and "false" on the Politifact.com website. Additionally, the study explored the lexical differences between the two types of statements in prepared speeches. The study revealed that false statements tend to have fewer first-person pronouns and more third-person pronouns compared to truthful statements. Additionally, false statements often include a higher number of words expressing negative emotions and negation. Furthermore, the length of sentences containing false information tends to be longer than those with true information.
The dialectical principles of composition in M. Gorky’s story “Childhood”
Authors: Tsirulev Alexander Fedorovich
Published: July 2024

The article explores the structure of M. Gorky's novella "Childhood" and how it relates to the overall meaning of the work. It focuses on how the different parts of the story are combined to create a single, meaningful whole. The purpose of the study is to provide a theoretical and practical justification for the "dialectical principle" of the compositional organization of the story "Childhood", which follows from the special author's position and the original worldview of Gorky, the artist. The scientific novelty lies in the fact that, from a "dialectical" point of view, the composition of M.'s "Childhood" Gorky has not been considered before. Special attention is paid to the use of poetic tools, techniques that help recreate the most complex picture of how the human self is formed. These tools also help to embody the dialectic of this process, which is based on the struggle between the opposing principles of "instinctively selfish" and "reasonably kind". The work consistently examines the main parts of the story, their interdependence, and determines the nature of the arrangement of action episodes in the light of the moral and intellectual evolution of the autobiographical hero. The purpose of this study is to redefine the structure of Gorky's text. We aim to understand the underlying principles that shape the overall structure of the story. As a result, it was found that the composition of "Childhood" has a special dialectical character. The dominant role in the architectonics of the story is played not by an externally eventful perspective, not by epic intentions, but by an installation to identify the laws of internal growth, the logic of dialectical formation of consciousness and the formation of moral principles of the autogeroy. The basis for the layout of the main episodes of Gorky's creative work is the recreation of the spiritual path of a child growing up in familiarization with folk morality and at the same time overcoming the limitations of its spontaneity and social passivity.
Axiological potential of the nomination провинциалишка (provincialette): word-formation and pragmatic aspects
Authors: Bychkova Valentina Sergeevna
Published: July 2024

The purpose of the study is to describe the features of the representation of the pejorative assessment of the nomination провинциалишка (provincialette) at the word-formation and pragmatic levels. The article examines the specifics of the functioning of the suffix -ишк-: features of the expression of the word-formation meaning, semantic and word-formation motivation of the derivative, ways to intensify the evaluation of this nomination. The scientific novelty of the study lies in the fact that for the first time the nomination "провинциалишка" was studied in detail, which had not previously been the subject of systematic analysis in linguistics. The central role of the nomination "провинциалишка" as an element of the system of "anti-values" in the text is determined. The analysis of the suffix -ишк- has been conducted. It helped us to identify its unique word-formation and semantic characteristics. For the first time, the pragmatic functions of the nomination "провинциалишка" are investigated, its role in setting the negative evaluation vector of the text is revealed. As a result, they found that using a diminutive form of a word can make the original word more negative. This new finding adds to our understanding of how we can make words more intense and expressive in language. The study has revealed the presence of hidden value meanings in the word "провинциалишка". This finding enriches our understanding of the valuable aspects of word formation in the Russian language.

Published: July 2024

Objective: To describe adverse events and technical complaints involving technologies for the management of elimination ostomies reported in Brazil. Method: This cross sectional descriptive study used secondary data recorded in the Notivisa system. The data encompass adverse events and technical complaints reported from January 2007 to August 2023. Descriptive statistical tools were used for the analysis. Results: A total of 2,812 notifications were identified, of which 101 (3.6%) were adverse events, and 2,711 (96.4%) were technical complaints. The state of São Paulo accounted for 884 (31.4%) notifications. Collection bags were the most frequently reported products, with 2,688 (95.6%) notifications, including 84 (3.1%) adverse events and 2,604 (96.9%) technical complaints. Regarding outcomes, 2,718 (96.7%) notifications lacked information, 19 (0.67%) reported urinary retention, 13 (0.46%) reported dermatitis, and 9 (0.32%) reported skin injury. Conclusion: The number of notifications has continued to rise in recent years; however, the quality remains low, as evidenced by the high rate of omitted information. Technical complaints about collection bags represent the largest number of notifications in Brazil. The description of outcomes in the use of products for ostomy management is unclear and may lead to the underreporting of significant adverse events such as dermatitis.

Published: July 2024

This study was intended to understand how young adults who have experienced Non-suicidal Self-Injury (NSSI) perceive life and death and to gain up-to-date insights into what lies beneath. For this study, five people with past NSSI experience were chosen, and each of them underwent in-depth interviewed three times. Data analysis adopted Van Manen’s approach to hermeneutic phenomenological qualitative methodology. We looked into the experiences and perceptions of the participants based on four lifeworld existentials offered by Van Manen, i.e. lived body (corporeality), lived space (spatiality), lived time (temporality), and lived human relations (relationality). For corporeality, individuals with NSSI behaviors have tried to die to escape inner pain, but have not ended their lives and continue to struggle through life with unhealed wounds all over their bodies. For spatiality, the participants’ will to live was easily broken and their hope was lost in their daily lives, but they comforted themselves with Self-Injury to remind themselves that they were real even if they were worthless. For temporality, we found that, despite a shadowy past where they saw no hope for a brighter future and a present where they are immersed in the cyber world, failing to respond to other external stimuli, the participants dream of a hopeful future where they embrace their wounds and try to live again, rather than completely stopping time with death. For relationality, they struggle with the interpersonal difficulties and conflicts with others while hovering between life and death, but supportive relationships may motivate them to make positive changes in their lives. In conclusion, ‘the constant yearning for life in the vicinity of death’ came out as the central theme of the life and death of young adults who had experienced non-suicidal self-injuries. Based on this finding, this study suggests raising awareness on these young adults’ perception of life and death, seeking ways to support grounding their lives, and intervention strategies to improve their mental health.

The Roles of Segments and Tone in Mandarin Lexical Processing: An ERP Study
Authors: Du Dan , Jiang Minghu
Published: July 2024

Backgrounds: Segments and tone are important sub-syllabic units that play large roles in lexical processing in tonal languages. However, their roles in lexical processing remain unclear, and the event-related potential (ERP) technique will benefit the exploration of the cognitive mechanism in lexical processing. Methods: The high temporal resolution of ERP enables the technique to interpret rapidly changing spoken language performances. The present ERP study examined the different roles of segments and tone in Mandarin Chinese lexical processing. An auditory priming experiment was designed that included five types of priming stimuli: consonant mismatch, vowel mismatch, tone mismatch, unrelated mismatch, and identity. Participants were asked to judge whether the target of the prime-target pair was a real Mandarin disyllabic word or not. Results: Behavioral results including reaction time and response accuracy and ERP results were collected. Results were different from those of previous studies that showed the dominant role of consonants in lexical access in mainly non-tonal languages like English. Our results showed that consonants and vowels play comparable roles, whereas tone plays a less important role than do consonants and vowels in lexical processing in Mandarin. Conclusions: These results have implications for understanding the brain mechanisms in lexical processing of tonal languages.
Transcriptomic Hallmarks of Hypoxic-Ischemic Brain Injury: Insights from an in Vitro Model
Authors: Wen Jialin , Jiang Qianqian , Yang Lijun , Cui Hong
Published: July 2024

Background: Hypoxic-ischemic injury of neurons is a pathological process observed in several neurological conditions, including ischemic stroke and neonatal hypoxic-ischemic brain injury (HIBI). An optimal treatment strategy for these conditions remains elusive. The present study delved deeper into the molecular alterations occurring during the injury process in order to identify potential therapeutic targets. Methods: Oxygen-glucose deprivation/reperfusion (OGD/R) serves as an established in vitro model for the simulation of HIBI. This study utilized RNA sequencing to analyze rat primary hippocampal neurons that were subjected to either 0.5 or 2 h of OGD, followed by 0, 9, or 18 h of reperfusion. Differential expression analysis was conducted to identify genes dysregulated during OGD/R. Time-series analysis was used to identify genes exhibiting similar expression patterns over time. Additionally, functional enrichment analysis was conducted to explore their biological functions, and protein-protein interaction (PPI) network analyses were performed to identify hub genes. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was used for validation of hub-gene expression. Results: The study included a total of 24 samples. Analysis revealed distinct transcriptomic alterations after OGD/R processes, with significant dysregulation of genes such as Txnip, Btg2, Egr1 and Egr2. In the OGD process, 76 genes, in two identified clusters, showed a consistent increase in expression; functional analysis showed involvement of inflammatory responses and signaling pathways like tumor necrosis factor (TNF), nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells (NF-κB), and interleukin 17 (IL-17). PPI network analysis suggested that Ccl2, Jun, Cxcl1, Ptprc, and Atf3 were potential hub genes. In the reperfusion process, 274 genes, in three clusters, showed initial upregulation followed by downregulation; functional analysis suggested association with apoptotic processes and neuronal death regulation. PPI network analysis identified Esr1, Igf-1, Edn1, Hmox1, Serpine1, and Spp1 as key hub genes. qRT-PCR validated these trends. Conclusions: The present study provides a comprehensive transcriptomic profile of an in vitro OGD/R process. Key hub genes and pathways were identified, offering potential targets for neuroprotection after hypoxic ischemia.

Published: July 2024

Background: There are few reports of studies on the differential effects of amiodarone among out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) patients with a shockable rhythm at hospital arrival. The present study aimed to investigate the clinical heterogeneity of OHCA patients with a shockable rhythm upon hospital arrival and to identify subgroups with differential responses to amiodarone, using a machine learning approach. Methods: We used the Japanese nationwide OHCA registry of the Japanese Association for Acute Medicine for this study; data from OHCA patients with a shockable rhythm at hospital arrival were included in the analyses. The primary outcome was a favorable neurological outcome at 30 days. We developed a scoring system by the weighting method with logistic likelihood loss to identify patient subgroups showing differential effects of amiodarone from the point of view of the neurological outcome and survival at 30 days. Results: Among the 68,111 cases of OHCA in the registry, the data of 2333 OHCA patients with an initial shockable rhythm at hospital arrival were analyzed. The developed score identified higher age, longer interval between the call to the emergency medical service and hospital arrival, absence of a “witness”, no defibrillation prior to hospital arrival, hypothermia at hospital arrival, and pre-hospital epinephrine administration as variables that were significantly associated with a beneficial effect of amiodarone. Based on the results of the developed scoring system, 47% (1107/2333) of the patients were considered to greatly benefit from amiodarone administration, whereas 53% (1226/2333) of patients were considered to not benefit from amiodarone administration. The effect of amiodarone on the neurological outcome at 30 days varied significantly among the subgroups identified by the developed score (ORinteraction: 1.07 [95% confidence interval (CI): 0.99–1.13], p = 0.005). Conclusions: We successfully developed a model that could discriminate between OHCA patients with an initial shockable rhythm at hospital arrival who would benefit or not benefit from the administration of amiodarone in terms of the neurological outcome at 30 days. There was clinical heterogeneity among OHCA patients with a shockable rhythm in terms of their response to amiodarone.

Invisible Borders and Trauma in The Joy Luck Club Between Amy Tan’s Novel (1989) and Wayne Wang’s Cinematic Adaptation (1993)
Authors: Benslama Oussama , Souhali Hichem
Published: July 2024

This research paper is an analytical, comparative study of Amy Tan’s twentieth-century diasporic novel, The Joy Luck Club (1989). It investigates the impact of invisible borders on both mothers and daughters in their cultural fluctuation between Chinese roots and American novelty. The boundaries that separate the two worlds can become so blurred out when one decides to move beyond topographical and physical terrains. In a Chinese-American milieu, there is the heavy weight of cultural limitations and taboos that are unspoken of in the midst of the immigrants’ hybrid lives. While the differences between book and screen adaptation have previously been described as minor sub-plot deviations, these changes still hold great significance in how Western societies perceive other cultures. The aim is to assess the level of intergenerational trauma Tan’s characters have sustained through a set of socially imposed borders and the ways they have decided to deal with it in both novel and film adaptation. The research relies on Hannah Arendt’s socio-cultural theory of the seemingly stateless identity and its correlation with the immigrants’ intergenerational trauma to examine how this kind of pressure put upon the characters affects their lives in the United States.

Published: July 2024

The synergistic effects of tuber cutting and PGR application on red onion growth and yield have not been extensively studied. Therefore, this study aimed to determine the most effective combination of tuber cutting and plant growth regulator (PGR) application for enhancing red onion growth and yield. Conducted between January and April 2023 in the greenhouse of the Agronomy Department, Faculty of Agriculture, University of Palangka Raya, the experiment utilized a completely randomized design (CRD) with seven treatments, each repeated five times. Treatments included: no cutting, cutting ¼ part of the bulb + 3 mL/L PGR, cutting ¼ part of the bulb + 6 mL/L PGR, cutting ¼ part of the bulb + 9 mL/L PGR, cutting ⅓ part of the bulb + 3 mL/L PGR, cutting ⅓ part of the bulb + 6 mL/L PGR, and cutting ⅓ part of the bulb + 9 mL/L PGR. Results indicate that red onion growth and yield can be significantly optimized through the strategic combination of tuber cutting and PGR application. The treatment involving cutting one-third of the tuber with 6 mL/L PGR concentration yielded the most favorable outcomes. Plants in this treatment displayed an average height of 45.84 cm, 51.4 leaves per plant, 10.6 bulbs per plant, 12.4 tillers per plant, a fresh weight of 42.79 g, a tuber dry weight of 18.34 g, and a bulb diameter of 2.18 cm. These findings suggest that cutting one-third of the bulb, in conjunction with specific PGR concentrations, enhances both yield and nutrient content in red onion bulbs, offering valuable insights for optimizing cultivation practices and maximizing crop productivity.

Floods can reduce soil quality because the entry of additional material which results in the loss of top soil due to the process of cleaning up flood residues in rice fields. The entry of mud deposits into rice fields can disrupt the balance of nutrients in the soil. This research aims to determine the relationship between the type of flood and the soil quality of coastal rice fields. The research method uses a purposive random sampling survey method.  After having laboratory soil analysis results, the data was then analyzed using Principal Component Analysis and Minimum Data Set. Sea water flood has a Soil Quality Index of 4.30 with good soil quality criteria, while for rice fields affected by river water flooding with an IKT value of 3.77 the soil quality is rather good and areas not affected by flooding have an IKT value of 4.71 with very good quality criteria. The results of the analysis show that the rice fields can be improved by managing rice fields affected by river and sea water flooding in a better way, such as using a good soil management system, using organic fertilizer and liming.

Mapping landslide-depleted source areas is pivotal for refining predictive models and volume estimations, yet these critical regions are often conflated with the landslide runouts, leading to sub-optimal assessments. The source areas are typically the regions where the actual failure occurs, providing crucial information on the initiation mechanisms and the nature of landslide propagation. Catering to this objective, we built a method based on a landslide’s topology and morphological information. We develop and test this method in geomorphologically distinct regions such as Dominica, Turkey, Italy, Nepal, and Japan (Niigata) to showcase the model’s robust adaptive capacity. The model can demarcate the source and runout zones from landslide planforms found in inventories with accuracy deviations under 15–20%. While distinguishing landslide source and runout areas, the model also considers triggering information and movement types. We also deploy the model in Chile, Japan (Hokkaido), Colombia, Papua New Guinea, and China. In those new regions, we found the mean area of the scarp to be consistently under 30% of the total landslide area. We additionally showcased the application of our model to the area-volume scaling of the coseismic landslides triggered by the 2018 Hokkaido Eastern Iburi Earthquake (MW 6.6) in Japan. Our analysis revealed that area-volume fitting using the landslide source areas instead of the total landslide planforms or polygons improves the linear fit from R2=0.49 to R2=0.81. The model could improve diverse landslide analysis, such as hazard models, and facilitate a deeper understanding of landslide behaviour.
The impact of abrupt sunlight reduction scenarios on renewable energy production
Authors: Varne Ashitosh , Blouin Simon , Williams Baxter , Denkenberger David
Published: July 2024

To combat global warming, energy systems are transitioning to generation from renewable sources, such as wind and solar, which are sensitive to climate conditions. While their output is expected to be little affected by global warming, wind and solar electricity generation could be affected by more drastic climatic changes, such as abrupt sunlight reduction scenarios (ASRSs) caused by nuclear war or supervolcanic eruptions. This paper assesses the impacts of an ASRS on global energy supply and security in a 100% renewable scenario. National generation mixes are determined according to roadmaps for a global transition to renewable energy, with wind and solar contributing a combined 94% of global energy supply. Wind and solar generation are determined for a baseline climate and an ASRS following a large-scale nuclear exchange. While effects vary by country, overall wind and solar generation is expected to reduce by 59% in the first year following an ASRS, requiring over a decade for full recovery. Sufficient energy for critical needs for everyone, including water, food, and building heating/cooling, would require international trade, resilient food production, and/or resilient energy sources, such as wood, geothermal, nuclear power, tidal power, and hydropower.

However, the association between life satisfaction and leisure travel is poorly understood, partly because of methodological limitations in previous research. In the present study, we examined the longitudinal association between life satisfaction and leisure travel using data from a representative Dutch sample (N = 12,027) gathered annually over 8 years. We specifically compared travelers and non-travelers on their levels and growth in life satisfaction over time using a growth model framework. We also examined whether more frequent and international (versus domestic) travel was associated with life satisfaction among travelers. Travelers and non-travelers were similar in levels and changes in life satisfaction. Traveling more frequently and internationally was related to greater life satisfaction during the year of travel, but not stable levels or long-term trajectories. Our findings suggest that vacations are only positively linked to life satisfaction in the short term.
European solidarity: perceptions and declarations of party leaders in Poland
Authors: Klepański Jakub , Hartliński Maciej
Published: July 2024

The research presented in this article is the attempt to analyse Polish parliamentary discourse concerning the European solidarity. The European solidarity is one of the greatest challenges of the second decade of the 21st century. This phenomenon can be analysed from the perspective of three dimensions: its roots in the EU treaties – as values and principles; institutionalised solidarity mechanisms – measures against internal shocks, cohesion policy, social policy; ad hoc solidarity in moments of crisis – e.g. migration crisis, COVID-19 crisis. This article addresses the issue of European solidarity from the perspective of political leaders. The analysed utterances allow us to conclude that the problem of European solidarity does not dominate in the parliamentary discourse of the most important Polish politicians. The parliamentary speeches of the Polish party leaders revealed various aspects of the perception of the title concept, especially in the context of shared values, although perceived in different ways. Good relations between EU countries, a common social and economic policy, as well as the sustainable development of Europe proved to be important.

The article considers the digitalization of investment-innovative activities of the business entities in the network IT system. The system-integrated methodology is implemented and practical recommendations are offered to build a model of digitalization of investment-innovative activities of the business entities by transforming the architecture of the business system into an IT system, which demonstrates the efficiency of network interaction in a competitive envi-ronment. The block diagram of the activation of Digital-strategy of digitalization of investment-innovative develop-ment of business in economy is presented. A block system for evaluating the digitalization of investment-innovative activities of the business entities in the network IT system is proposed. Indicators of digitalization of investment-innovative activities of the business entities in the network IT system are grouped according to the components of the balanced scorecard (CFS). The architectural structure of the integrated indicator of the zonal level of digitalization of investment- innovative activities of the business entities in the network IT system is substantiated. The coordinates of the vector-standard of zonal digitization of investment-innovative activities of the business entities in the network IT system of Ukraine are determined. The integrated level of digitalization of investment-innovative activities of the business entities in the network IT system of the Forest-Steppe, Polissya and Western region, the Steppe of Ukraine is calculated for the block “Financial activity”, “Counterparties”, “Internal business processes”. The local priorities of the components of the zonal integrated level of digitalization of investment-innovative activities of the business enti-ties in the network IT system of Ukraine are determined.

The article highlights the problem of correlation of training programs in traumatology and orthopedics in Ukrainian higher medical education with international standards of training specialists in this field. The actualization of this issue in the context of training in domestic institutions of higher medical education of foreign students is singled out, for whom the problem of unification of professional competences in accordance with world standards is particularly important. It is noted that the key problem is the lack of hours of practical study of the curriculum. A potential solution to the situation could be the active use of innovative educational elements - simulation cluster, digital arsenal, 3D visualization. In general, teaching traumatology and orthopedics for foreign students needs to be balanced in the context of high professionalism of mentors (their authority, practical treatment experience, pedagogical skill) and in an innovation-oriented dimension. Such instructions form the curriculum and its implementation in the context of the requirements of the time and current international standards of medical education. Teaching traumatology and orthopedics has a unique specificity, as it requires a combination of theoretical background and practical activity. Professional competencies should take into account a number of factors that will influence the specifics of further professional activity. Taking into account the fact that each country has its own specific features of the functioning of the medical system, the competencies acquired during training will be implemented in a dynamic dimension. Therefore, it is important for foreign students to acquire both fundamental knowledge and flexible practical skills.

The article provides a general analysis of body composition indicators of female volleyball players of various qualifications. The obtained results were compared with the interpreted data of the criteria that were determined, namely, body mass index (BMI), body fat percentage (BFP), skeletal muscle percentage (PSM), visceral fat level (VF), energy expenditure at rest (VE kkal) in a state of relative rest. Material and methods. 15 qualified volleyball players of the national team of Mykola Pirogov Vinnitsa National Medical University and 12 novice volleyball players of the national team of Mykhailo Kotsyubynskyi Vinnitsa State Pedagogical University took part in the study. Research methods: analysis of scientific literature, pedagogical observation, morph-functional diagnostics, surveys, methods of mathematical statistics. Research results and key findings. It was established that the average indicators of body composition monitoring of qualified volleyball players are higher in relation to the indicators of volleyball players of the initial group: body length, respectively, 1.78±0.06m, 1.67±0.07m; BMI - 24.57±3.2 kg/m∙2, 23.48±3.22 kg/m∙2; BFP - 15.2±3.89%, 31.1±5.24%; PSM - 35.33±3.3%, 29.35±2.82%; VF -7.19±1.44 um.units, 3.4±0.9 um.units; VE kkal - 1596.6±103.17 kkal, 1392±123.61 kkal. Also, comparing the average indicators with the interpreted data of the criteria, the norm was found in both teams in terms of BMI, VF and with PSM (beginners' team) and BFP - (team of highly qualified volleyball players). We obtained a high level of indicators in beginner girls from the percentage of body fat (FFA) and a very high level from girls with high sports qualifications from the percentage of skeletal muscles (FFA).
The prospect of further research is to establish the relationship between the obtained indicators of the body composition of female athletes of various sports qualifications and the level of general and special fitness.

This study assessed differences in technological pedagogical content knowledge (TPACK) between experienced and less experienced computer studies teachers in Ogun State, Nigeria. Three research questions were used in the survey research, with a total number of two hundred (200) respondents, using multistage sampling technique. The instrument used was an adapted test scale measuring technological pedagogical knowledge (TPK), technological content knowledge (TCK) and technological pedagogical content knowledge (TPACK). It is divided into two sections with a reliability coefficient value of 0.78, 0.72 and 0.71 respectively, while data was analysed with t-test statistical method. The study revealed no significant difference in the technological pedagogical knowledge (TPK) between experienced and less experienced computer teachers (t = 0.346, P > 0.05), significant difference in the technological content knowledge (TCK) between experienced and less experienced computer teachers (t =2.423, P < 0.05) and significant difference in the technological pedagogical content knowledge (TPACK) between experienced and less experienced computer teachers (t =1.306, P < 0.05). In the recommendation, professional development in terms of continuous workshop, in-service training and seminar should be constantly organised for both experienced and less experienced secondary school computer teachers in Ogun State for improved TPK. Also, in-service training and seminar should be constantly provided for less experienced computer teachers in Ogun State for improved TCK and TPACK.
