The purpose of the paper is developing and improving accounting and analytical securement for anti-crisis management of enterprises. Methodology. The methodological basis of this research was general scientific and special methods, such as idealization and generalization. Achievement of the defined goal and obtaining reasonable results were carried out through using a set of methods of scientific cognition, such as: analysis and synthesis of the review of certain concepts in scientific sources. Abstract-logical, inductive, and predictive methods were used to summarize the study and draw conclusions, etc. Results. The research considers issues of development of management accounting on the basis of a risk-oriented approach, characterizing the principles of a risk-oriented approach to management, analyzing the share of enterprises that purchase cloud computing services, considering the methodology of risk-oriented management in the management accounting system, and identifying the tools on the basis of which the risk significance is assessed. It is noted that the transformation of management accounting occurs automatically through the integration of technologies and automation of processes: the structure of the organization changes, financial workers and accountants are more flexible in making decisions regarding planning costs, revenues, and profits. Technologies and new management methods have become a solution to the problem of excessive workload of financial personnel with standardized tasks and processes. Thus, automation enabled the transition from a limited and chaotic management accounting system to a flexible, hybrid one. The use of cloud technologies in accounting to ensure anti-crisis management of enterprises is studied, where the most popular programs for automation of accounting at an enterprise are characterized, the essence, role, types and tasks of cloud technologies are assessed, modern cloud services offering comprehensive or partial automation of accounting tasks in Ukraine are characterized, the main advantages and disadvantages of using cloud technologies in solving accounting tasks are highlighted. Promising directions for improving approaches to analyzing the financial condition as an element of preventing enterprise bankruptcy are investigated. Practical implications. They are in the scientific validity and applied orientation of the provisions and approaches presented in this study, the use of which will ensure the improvement of accounting and analytical securement for crisis management of enterprises. Value/originality. It is proposed to improve the accounting and analytical securement for crisis management through the development of management accounting based on a risk-oriented approach, the use of cloud technologies in accounting, and the improvement of approaches to analyzing the financial condition as an element of preventing enterprise bankruptcy.

Osmanlı İmparatorluğu idari olarak teşkilatlanma sürecinde, kendinden önce kurulan Müslüman Türk devletlerinin ilmiye sınıfına dair teşkilatlanma yapısını da değerlendirerek kendine özgü bir eğitim sistemi kurmuştur. Osmanlı eğitim sisteminin merkezinde ve temelinde ise medreseler bulunmaktadır. Osmanlı Devleti’nde 16. yüzyıldan itibaren başlayan ve 17. yüzyılda belirginleşen bozulmalar, eğitim sistemine de sirayet etmiştir. Bu durum müderrisliğe sıra ve sınav ile atama usulü olan mülazemet sisteminde de etkisini göstermiştir. Özellikle II. Mehmet’in Teşkilat Kanunnamesi ile birlikte ilmiye sınıfında yer alan kişilerin erkek çocuklarına devlet kadrolarında istihdam edilmek üzere bazı imtiyazlar tanınmıştır. Bu imtiyazlar ile çok küçük yaştaki çocuklara dahi mollalık, kadılık ve müderrislik gibi unvanlar verilmesi sonucunda beşik ulemalığı kavramı ortaya çıkmıştır. Beşik ulemalığı, aile üyeleri ve yakın akrabalara yönelik bir kayırmacılık uygulaması olarak da tanımlanan nepotizme bir örnek oluşturmaktadır. Bu çalışmada doküman analizi yöntemi vasıtasıyla beşik ulemalığı kapsamında ilmiye sınıfına mensup Ebussuud Efendi ve Mevlâna Muslihüddin Kastalani gibi diğer ulemaların da icraatları incelemeye tabi tutularak, Osmanlı eğitim sisteminde nepotizmin varlığı ortaya konmuştur.

Objective Mood instability (MI) is a clinically significant trait associated with psychiatric disorders. However, there are no concise measurements to evaluate MI. The initial Mood Instability Questionnaire-Trait (MIQ-T) was developed to fill this gap. The current study aimed to create a short form of MIQ-T (MIQ-T-SF) that measures MI with high validity and reliability in the Korean general population.Methods Of the 59 items in the MIQ-T, 17 items were chosen for the MIQ-T-SF following the factor analysis process. In total, 540 participants completed the MIQ-T-SF. Cronbach’s alpha and McDonald’s omega were used to evaluate reliability. Exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) were used to determine construct validity. Concurrent validity was confirmed via comparisons with Personality Assessment Inventory-Borderline Features Scale. Measurement invariance across gender and age groups was confirmed before analyzing differences in scores using Kruskal-Wallis test.Results The MIQ-T-SF displayed expected correlations and high internal consistency (α=0.71–0.90, Ωt=0.72–0.92). Using EFA and CFA, a five-factor structure was confirmed. Measurement invariance was supported, and gender differences were observed.Conclusion The MIQ-T-SF is an accurate and reliable method to detect MI in the Korean general population. The study’s results offer new perspectives for future studies on MI.

Objective This study aimed to evaluate the consistency or stability of mental disorders diagnosed in the psychiatry ward setting, investigate factors associated with consistency, and observe the disease distribution over the decade.Methods A total of 20,359 psychiatric inpatients were included in this retrospective study from June 2011 to December 2020. Diagnoses from the first admission to discharge were evaluated to determine the diagnostic consistency during hospitalization. Readmissions were selected as the subgroup, whose first and last discharge diagnoses were compared to analyze the relatively long-term diagnostic stability. Demographic and clinical characteristics were collected to identify predictors of diagnostic discrepancy.Results From 2011–2020, the hospitalization rate decreased from 42.7% to 20.7% for schizophrenia and grew from 13.3% to 23.8% for depression. Diagnoses were retained by 92.6% of patients at their first discharge diagnosis, ranging from 100% for disorders of psychological development to 16.3% for unspecified mental disorders. About 33.9% of diagnostic conversions were to bipolar disorder in patients having inconsistent diagnoses. However, among rehospitalizations, the diagnostic stability notably dropped to 71.3%. For rehospitalizations, mood disorders and schizophrenia spectrum disorders were relatively stable diagnoses categories, with 72.6% to 76.7% of patients receiving the same diagnosis, although results of specified diagnoses within these categories ranged from 5.9% to 91.0%. Except for mood disorders and schizophrenia spectrum disorders, the diagnoses of all other categories were below 70%. Long lengths of hospitalization and old age were associated with short-term diagnosis alterations.Conclusion Longitudinal follow-up and integration of multiple aspects of information are essential for accurate diagnosis.
Ältere Menschen in Innovationsfondsprojekten
Authors: Wuttke Alexandra , Geschke Katharina
Published: May 2023

Ziel dieses Übersichtsartikels ist eine Auswertung altersspezifischer Innovationsfondsprojekte. Von den insgesamt 557 geförderten Projekten weisen 17,1 % einen altersspezifischen Fokus auf. Ein zusätzlicher psychotherapeutischer Fokus liegt bei 2,1 % der altersspezifischen Förderprojekte vor. Häufige gemeinsame Elemente der Versorgungsinnovationen umfassen dabei eine interdisziplinäre Denkweise unter Einbezug der hausärztlichen Praxis sowie einer koordinierenden Person, deren zentrale Aufgaben das Schnittstellenmanagement und das Abstimmen von Versorgungsleistungen umfasst. Die Angehörigen der Patientinnen und Patienten werden deutlich seltener direkt miteinbezogen. Es ist erfreulich, dass altersspezifische Projekte im Innovationsfonds vertreten sind und gleichzeitig ist deren Anteil in Anbetracht der demografischen Entwicklung zu gering. Die massive Unterrepräsentation von psychischen Erkrankungen und den entsprechenden Behandlungsangeboten bedürfen einer Änderung und konstruktiver Lösungen in Zukunft.
Ein hausärztlich basiertes multiprofessionelles, bedarfsgerechtes Versorgungskonzept für Menschen mit Demenz und deren Angehörige

Published: May 2023

Im Mittelpunkt von DemStepCare stand die bedarfsgerechte, personenzentrierte und leitlinienorientierte Optimierung der ambulanten Versorgung von Menschen mit Demenz und deren Angehörigen. Nach Auswahl und Einschreibung der Patientinnen und Patienten durch deren hausärztlich Praxis führten Case-Managerinnen eine strukturierte Beurteilung der häuslichen Versorgungssituation durch. War diese stabil, erhielt die betroffene Familie eine Beratung über regionale Hilfsund Versorgungsmöglichkeiten. Im Falle eines erhöhten Versorgungsrisikos übernahmen die Case-Managerinnen zentrale Aufgaben bei der Organisation und Koordinierung zusätzlicher Versorgungsangebote und boten eine bedarfsgerechte kontinuierliche Begleitung an. Bei (drohenden) Versorgungskrisen konnte kurzfristig und vorübergehend eine aufsuchende multiprofessionelle Krisenambulanz in Anspruch genommen werden. Die dort verorteten Pflegeexpertinnen für kognitive Störungen und Demenz versuchten in enger fachärztlicher und sozialdienstlicher Kooperation durch zeitnahe Diagnostik und konsekutive Abfolge primär nicht-medikamentöser Interventionen sowie die Betreuung der oft sehr belasteten Angehörigen, eine ambulante Stabilisierung der Versorgungssituation zu erreichen und eine stationäre Aufnahme zu vermeiden. Der Beitrag beschreibt den Ablauf der Versorgung und gibt Einblicke in das Projekt DemStepCare sowie eine kurze Auswahl qualitativer Einzelerfahrungen anhand von beispielhaften Aussagen aller am Projekt Beteiligten.
Curing and caring: Aufsuchendes psychotherapeutisches Arbeiten mit pflegebedürftigen älteren Menschen mit Depression
Authors: Kessler Eva-Marie
Published: May 2023

Zu Hause lebende, pflegebedürftige ältere Menschen mit Depression sind bisher in Deutschland psychotherapeutisch unterversorgt (bzw. de facto nicht-versorgt) und es mangelt an entsprechender Forschung. Ambulant tätige Psychotherapeutinnen und Psychotherapeuten sind in der Regel mangels gerontopsychologischer Ausund Fortbildungsmöglichkeiten sowie fehlender zielgruppenspezifischer Behandlungsansätze und Anreizstrukturen nicht spezifisch für die Behandlung der Patientengruppe qualifiziert und motiviert. Seitens der Patientinnen und Patienten, ihrer Angehörigen und Gesundheitsakteurinnen und -akteure fehlt es an Wissen über Behandlungsmöglichkeiten und -wirksamkeit, sodass Psychotherapie selten nachgefragt beziehungsweise aktiv gebahnt wird. Vor dem Hintergrund des Versorgungsund Forschungsdefizits untersuchte das in Berlin angesiedelte Innovationsfondsprojekt PSY-CARE die Implementierbarkeit und Wirksamkeit von Kurzzeit-Verhaltenstherapie für zu Hause lebende Menschen über 60 Jahre mit Pflegegrad und Depression. Anhand einer Fallkasuistik wird in diesem Artikel ein Einblick in das psychotherapeutische Arbeiten gegeben und werden die Möglichkeiten und Grenzen der psychotherapeutischen Behandlung dargestellt. PSY-CARE zeigt, dass das Arbeiten mit der Patientenpopulation ein erweitertes therapeutisches Selbstverständnis im Sinne einer Integration von »Cure« und »Care« erfordert.

Authors: Polyaeva Natal'ya
Published: May 2023

The aim of this study is to build the architecture of a decision support system for actors in resolving problem situations using an intersubjective approach to management. To achieve this goal, it is necessary to classify decision support systems and to identify the system features used in the intersubjective approach to resolve problem situations, allowing it to be attributed to a certain class; to develop the architecture of the decision support information tool with an intersubjective approach to management based on the selected class of decision support systems. A new innovative intersubjective approach to managing the problem situation was previously proposed at the level of an idea and only a theoretical base was developed, while at present a practical direction is being carried out that is related to applying the proposed principles. The scientific novelty of the work is related to developing the architecture of the decision support system for actors who find themselves in problem situations and seek to resolve them using intersubjective principles, which has not been previously proposed or developed by scientists and researchers.

Published: May 2023

The selection of boarding houses for work or study often leaves potential residents uncertain about choosing the right boarding house to meet their daily personal needs. Due to the varying prices and facilities offered by each boarding house, potential residents need to consider the prices and various facilities provided by each boarding house. Therefore, a recommendation system is needed to assist potential residents in deciding on the right boarding house according to their daily needs. This system is created using the Simple Additive Weighting method, which can help potential residents in decision-making through ranking obtained by multiplying the matrix of each criteria weight with the available alternative values. The development of this recommendation system uses MYSQL database, HTML, PHP, and JavaScript programming. The testing of the recommendation system using a Likert scale resulted in an average total interpretation score of 76.3%, indicating that users have a positive response to this recommendation system.

Conspiracy Beliefs and Jumping to Conclusions
Authors: Kabengele Marie-Claire , Gollwitzer Peter M , Keller Lucas
Published: May 2023

A person's proneness to holding conspiracy beliefs can be affected by various situational and dispositional factors. Jumping to conclusions (JTC), a tendency to make hasty decisions, may be among them. Typically studied in clinical samples, it affects information acquisition and is linked to delusional ideation, suggesting that it may relate to conspiracy mentality, which is also associated with paranoia. Other factors linked to information acquisition and frequently studied in conjunction with JTC include reasoning styles. We examined how JTC and reasoning styles relate to general and COVID-19-related conspiracy beliefs and whether JTC has any association beyond that of reasoning styles. In two online studies, we assessed JTC and four reasoning styles, actively open-minded thinking (AOT), personal fear of invalidity (PFI; Studies 1& 2), need for cognitive closure (NFCC), and cognitive reflection (CRT; Study 2). In Study 1, we found negative relationships between AOT and all conspiracy beliefs and positive relationships between PFI and all conspiracy beliefs. JTC was negatively associated with all conspiracy beliefs and had an association beyond that of reasoning styles. In Study 2, we additionally tested whether the content of the beads task mattered by adding a COVID-19-themed version of the task as an experimental manipulation. We replicated the negative relationships between AOT and all conspiracy beliefs and found positive relationships between NFCC and all conspiracy beliefs. PFI positively predicted COVID-19-related but not general conspiracy beliefs. JTC negatively predicted only COVID-19-specific conspiracy beliefs. We replicated the association of JTC beyond reasoning styles with COVID-19-related conspiracy beliefs. Crucially, we showed that the occurrence of JTC remains stable and is not affected by the content of the beads task.
Inclusive Strategies for Children with Developmental Disabilities in Classrooms in African Countries: a Systematic Review of Stakeholder Experiences, Attitudes and Perspectives
Authors: Genovesi Elisa , Gaches Akhina , McKenzie Judith , Hanlon Charlotte , Hoekstra Rosa
Published: May 2023

African children with developmental disabilities (DD), including autism and intellectual disability, are often excluded from mainstream schools. We systematically reviewed 28 qualitative studies conducted in Africa, with the aim to synthesise stakeholders’ perspectives on inclusive teaching strategies for supporting children with DD in mainstream classes. Six interrelated themes were developed using thematic analysis. Teachers strived to meet learners’ needs (Theme 1) and provide targeted support, reinforcement and feedback (Theme 2). Teachers’ inclusive pedagogies, while sometimes creating divisions, often reflected a whole-class approach (Theme 3), especially in promoting inclusive environments (Theme 4) and engaging teaching (Theme 5). Authors of reviewed studies often discussed how teachers’ strategies fit in with the evidence base (Theme 6). While teachers’ inclusion efforts appeared progressive, they were mostly based on Western pedagogies and challenged by limited resources and training. Training efforts based on indigenous pedagogies are recommended to improve use and outcomes of inclusive strategies.
“It’s not just linguistically, there’s much more going on”: Exploring the experiences and practices of bilingual paediatric speech and language therapists in the UK
Authors: Gréaux Mélanie , Gibson Jenny Louise , Katsos Napoleon
Published: May 2023

Background – Despite the high prevalence of bilingualism in the UK, few Speech and Language Therapists (SLTs) are bilingual themselves. Most SLT research on bilingualism has generated knowledge to inform service delivery for bilingual clients, but few studies have investigated how being a bilingual SLT influences one’s professional experiences and practices. Better understanding the unique positionality of bilingual SLTs can yield critical insights to meaningfully address issues of diversity, inclusion and equity in the profession.Aim – To investigate the experiences and practices of bilingual paediatric SLTs in the UK through the lens of the CHAT-ICF framework, which is conjoining the Cultural-Historical Activity Theory with the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health. CHAT-ICF is a newly proposed theoretical framework developed to conceptualize the activities of professionals working in the field of disability.Methods – In this qualitative study, nineteen bilingual paediatric SLTs practising in the UK were interviewed individually, using a semi-structured interview guide. The data was analysed using reflexive thematic analysis.Results – Six overarching components of the CHAT-ICF framework hosted the twelve sub-themes identified to capture the experiences and practices of bilingual SLTs: (1) Subject (Intersectionality); (2) Tools (Language skills; Education; Clinical resources); (3) Rules (Structural barriers; Sense of responsibility); (4) Community (Sense of inclusion); (5) Division of labour (Parents; Colleagues); and (6) Activity (Empathy with children; Holistic mindset; Flexible approach). The use of the CHAT-ICF theoretical lens revealed three key structural phenomena to better understand the experiences of bilingual SLTs: (1) the distribution of sub-themes across many components of CHAT-ICF demonstrated that being a bilingual SLT is a multifactorial experience; (2) the chain reactions between multiple components of CHAT-ICF illustrated the interconnections between these factors; and (3) the power differentials at play within and between components of CHAT-ICF showed specific phenomena of marginalization that can regulate their experiences.Conclusion – This is the first qualitative study to date to provide in-depth insights into the experiences and practices of bilingual SLTs in the UK. Being bilingual in a profession oriented towards language and communication disability creates a unique positionality that profoundly impacts SLTs’ experiences and practices, and cannot be reduced to their linguistic abilities. Research giving voice to bilingual SLTs, and other underrepresented demograhics in the SLT workforce, has the potential to hasten the identification of barriers and catalyze action to promote a more diverse and inclusive profession. It can also inform progress towards the vision of the RCSLT strategy 2022-2027.

Published: May 2023

Previous studies conducted during the COVID-19 pandemic found an increased risk of lonelinessdue to measurements taken by governments to limit social interaction. The current study addressesthe relationship between loneliness and both positive and negative mental health in timesof the COVID-19 pandemic and the role of psychological flexibility.Data was collected in the Dutch general population (18+) with two online questionnaires (T1-T2), with an interval of four weeks. A sample of 340 participants varying in age from 18 to 83years (Mage (SD): 52.83 (13) and 61.8 % female), filled in both questionnaires. Loneliness and (thesix core processes of) psychological flexibility were measured at T1 and negative mental health(depression, anxiety and stress) and positive mental health (emotional, psychological and socialwell-being) at T2.Regression analyses indicated a positive (prospective) relation between loneliness anddepression, anxiety and stress and a negative (prospective) relation between loneliness andemotional, psychological and social well-being. Psychological flexibility had a moderating effecton the relation between loneliness and depression but not on the relation between loneliness andrespectively anxiety, stress or well-being. Looking at the six core processes of psychologicalflexibility, being present and committed action were significant moderators of the relation betweenloneliness and depression.We conclude that while it has yet to be determined whether the moderating relationships foundin this study hold beyond COVID-19 conditions, the findings do provide support for the benefits ofpsychological flexibility to intervene in situations where external circumstances or psychologicalchallenges are beyond one’s control.
Meta-stereotypes and their associations with eating motivation and identity among vegans and meat and/or dairy reducers
Authors: Wehbe Lara , Duncan Sophie , Banas Kasia , Papies Esther K.
Published: May 2023

Although plant-based diets are recommended to mitigate climate change, vegans, who implement those diets, are often negatively stereotyped. Here, we examined whether vegans and meat and/or dairy reducers perceive that others stereotype vegans, and whether such meta-stereotypes impact the motivation to adopt or maintain plant-based diets. We assessed stereotypes and meta-stereotypes of vegans among female vegans (Study 1, N = 200) and among female meat and/or dairy reducers (Study 2, N = 272) in the UK, and examined associations with the motivation to maintain dietary change and with identity. We found strong evidence for both stereotypes and meta-stereotypes. Both groups held stronger meta-stereotypes about vegans than stereotypes. Stereotypes were linked to how closely reducers felt to vegans. Among both groups, there was no evidence of an association of negative meta-stereotypes with dietary change maintenance. Meta-stereotypes may reflect social polarisation, and may be relevant to examine for urgently needed societal changes.
On the computational principles underlying human exploration
Authors: Fox Lior , Dan Ohad , Loewenstein Yonatan
Published: May 2023

Adapting to new environments is a hallmark of animal and human cognition, and Reinforcement Learning (RL) models provide a powerful and general framework for studying such adaptation. A fundamental learning component identified by RL models is that in the absence of direct supervision, when learning is driven by trial-and-error, exploration is essential. The necessary ingredients of effective exploration have been studied extensively in machine learning. However, the relevance of some of these principles to humans' exploration is still unknown. An important reason for this gap is the dominance of the Multi-Armed Bandit tasks in human exploration studies. In these tasks, the exploration component per se is simple, because local measures of uncertainty, most notably visit-counters, are sufficient to effectively direct exploration. By contrast, in more complex environments, actions have long-term exploratory consequences that should be accounted for when measuring their associated uncertainties. Here, we use a novel experimental task that goes beyond the bandit task to study human exploration. We show that when local measures of uncertainty are insufficient, humans use exploration strategies that propagate uncertainties over states and actions. Moreover, we show that the long-term exploration consequences are temporally-discounted, similar to the temporal discounting of rewards in standard RL tasks. Additionally, we show that human exploration is largely uncertainty-driven. Finally, we find that humans exhibit signatures of temporally-extended learning, rather than local, 1-step update rules which are commonly assumed in RL models. All these aspects of human exploration are well-captured by a computational model in which agents learn an exploration "value-function", analogous to the standard (reward-based) value-function in RL.
Higher education in the social sciences impacts essentialist conceptions of racial disparities
Authors: Peretz-Lange Rebecca , Coley John , Pitt Emma
Published: May 2023

Conceptions of social disparities as natural and biologically- caused, known as “essentialist” conceptions, support the maintenance of social disparities. Surprisingly little research has examined whether formal educational experiences – directly teaching people about the nature and origins of social disparities – can reduce essentialist conceptions. We investigate how social science coursework (e.g., sociology, history, anthropology) impacts (a) essentialist vs. structural explanations for racial disparities, and (b) social essentialism more broadly, in a diverse group of undergraduates (n = 246). Results suggest that students who have completed such coursework show reduced endorsement of essentialist explanations for racial disparities, but enhanced endorsement of other dimensions of social essentialist thought (e.g., the view that social categories are meaningfully distinct from one another). Thus, social science coursework may have a nuanced impact on social essentialism. We discuss the questions these results raise regarding the relations between explanatory thinking and other dimensions of social essentialism.
Developing and Evaluating a Situated Assessment Instrument for Trichotillomania: The SAM² TAI
Authors: Taylor Browne Lūka Courtney , Hendry Katie , Dutriaux Léo , Stevenson Judith L , Barsalou Lawrence
Published: May 2023

Trichotillomania (hair pulling disorder) is characterized by the recurrent and repetitive pulling of one’s own hair, often resulting in distress for the individual. Being able to accurately measure trichotillomania is essential for understanding hair pulling and developing interventions to decrease pulling. Most current assessment measures are unsituated, asking an individual to assess their pulling by abstracting across unspecified life situations to construct overarching impressions. This abstraction process can potentially lead to inaccurate judgements that ignore important sources of situational variance. We used the Situated Assessment Method (SAM²) to develop a situated psychometric instrument for assessing trichotillomania: the SAM2 Trichotillomania Assessment Instrument (SAM2 TAI). Using the SAM2 TAI, participants in two studies (n = 117 and n = 99) evaluated 52 situations for pulling frequency and urge strength, along with a set of processes known to influence pulling (e.g., external triggers, reduction of negative emotion, situational control, emotion regulation). As expected, large reliable individual differences emerged across these measures of trichotillomania, together with substantial situational effects and situation by individual interactions. High levels of construct and content validity were also observed, demonstrating that the SAM2 TAI provides meaningful assessments of constructs associated with trichotillomania. Prediction of trichotillomania at both the group and individual levels supported theoretical models of trichotillomania in the literature, while establishing individual prediction profiles that varied widely. Interestingly, the SAM2 TAI was only moderately related to a well-established unsituated measure of trichotillomania, the MGH-HPS, indicating that situated and unsituated measures capture different information.
