Published: August 2022

Business needs specialists in personnel work, organizational and personnel consulting. Today they are in demand in banks, large industrial and commercial holdings, medium and small enterprises. In particular, business psychologists are the specialists, who work to ensure the realization of potential opportunities for staff and management of business organizations, promote effective communication in the team, form a personnel reserve, etc. The article notes that professional and personal qualities in the work of a business psychologist are often closely related. The profession leaves an imprint on the lifestyle and personality of the specialist, and personal characteristics are reflected in all types of professional activities of a business psychologist. Possession of the most pronounced professional and personal qualities is a prerequisite for the effective implementation of practical activities at any stage of professional development of a business psychologist personality. Focusing on continuous professional development, self-improvement provides a high level of competitiveness, productivity and, consequently, career growth, self-realization and self-improvement.
THE PERSPECTIVE OF TRANSFORMATIONS IN THE PSYCHOLOGY OF THE MOSCOVITES
Authors: Moskalets Viktor
Published: August 2022

The article substantiates the basis of a constructive approach to solving the problem of positive transformations in the psychology of the Moscovites based on processing the work of unsurpassed connoisseurs of the psychology of peoples and masses and dictators of the 19-20th centuries. It also reflects the reasons for the formation of those personality traits of Putin in his childhood and adolescence, united in the desire for power. It is shown that despite Putin’s pathologic negligence, kleptomania, and mafia-bandit mentality, signs of a paranoid form of schizophrenia are found in his activities: ideas-fixes, persecution mania, etc. Probably, he also has mental pathology, which was studied and called ‘disintegration syndrome’ by E. Fromm. They are necrophiles, meaning they love death, the dead, and destruction. Moreover, we also analysed the psychological mechanisms of the transformation of the masses into ‘cattle mass’, which succeeds under certain conditions. Such conditions were and are in Muscovy-Russia. The main one is the tendency of Moscovites to slavery. There are facts confirming that in the functioning of propensities and other components of orientation (value orientations, worldviews, etc.) as a matrix of motivational dynamics of ethno-national communities the bio-genetic factor does not play a role. The main means of formation and functioning of this matrix is tradition – the main form of representation and affirmation of society, in which it fixes basic knowledge about itself, its spiritual values, etc. Changing traditions is very difficult, but not impossible. It is capable and should be carried out by the intellectual elite of the nation and the state created by it, first of all, its part, which cherishes humanistic spiritual values – orientation to the good. The key task of this work is justified: the formation of a type of character based on independence, persistence, ingenuity, and biophilia – the love of life. The article also proposes the necessary conditions for the success of this work: 1) the awareness of the oppressed population of the regions of the Russian Federation of their self-sufficiency and their ability to dispose of the wealth of their own land; 2) the rejection of nuclear weapons and the final collapse of the Moscow Empire so that these factors do not support the illusion of greatness; 3) the philosophy and psychology of remorse for all the horrific crimes committed by the Moscow State against humanity; and 4) quality humanistic education, primarily – a truthful history.

Published: August 2022

Anxiety is a reflection of an emotional state or a set of reactions that occur in a person who perceives the situation as personally dangerous; it is characterized by subjective feelings of tension, worries, gloomy anticipation, and activation of the autonomic nervous system. The main functions of anxiety are signaling, stimulation, and adaptation. Anxiety has three forms of expression: physiological, psychological, and behavioral. Anxiety as a process of developing the set of symptoms has the following stages: feeling of inner tension, reactions of hyperesthesia, a sense of incomprehensible danger, fear, a sense of the inevitability of impending catastrophe, excitement of anxiety, and timidity. Studentship is a sensitive period for the development of main human sociogenic potency. The state of the heightened anxiety has a negative impact on the success of young people’s educational activities. The display of the medium level of student’s youth anxiety was diagnosed, which is determined by the manifestation of psychological symptoms of the studied phenomenon. The display of the lowest level of physiological symptoms of student’s youth anxiety was recorded. The authors’ recommendations and techniques of modern practicing specialists in the field of psychology are described, aiming to help students cope with the symptoms of anxiety during the Russian-Ukrainian war.

Published: August 2022

2005 yılından itibaren Adalet ve Kalkınma Partisi (AK Parti) hükümetleri ile birlikte Afrika kıtası Türk Dış Politikasında önem kazanmaya başlamıştır. Türkiye'nin yumuşak güç politikası, Afrika ile çok taraflı ilişkilerin geliştirilmesinde en önemli araçlardan biridir. Türkiye son yıllarda Afrika ülkeleriyle askeri ve savunma alanlarında önemli işbirlikleri yapmaktadır. Örneğin Türkiye'nin yurtdışındaki en büyük askeri üssü 2017 yılında Somali'de açıldı. Ancak Türkiye'nin yumuşak gücü, kıta ile siyasi, ekonomik, sosyal ve güvenlik alanlarında ilişkileri derinleştirmek için çok önemli bir stratejik zemin hazırlamaktadır. AK Parti hükümetleri Türkiye’nin Afrika ile ilişkilerini ideolojik bir boyuttan stratejik bir boyuta taşıyarak Afrika kıtasının Türkiye için stratejik bir anlamı olduğunu ortaya koymuştur. Araştırma, Türkiye'nin Afrika'ya yönelik yumuşak güç stratejisinin tarihi, coğrafi, siyasi ve ekonomik dahil olmak üzere bir dizi faktör ve dinamikten etkilendiğini savunuyor. Bu çalışma, Türkiye'nin Afrika'daki yumuşak güç politikasını kavramsal bir çerçevede ve bütüncül bir yaklaşımla analiz ederek literatüre katkı sağlamayı amaçlamaktadır.

Published: August 2022

Seçimli Otoriter rejimlerde, muhalefetin devşirilmesi en sık başvurulan yönetme tekniklerinden biridir. Devşirme faaliyeti salt otokratın kişisel ilişkileri üzerinden olabileceği gibi siyasal parti kurumu üzerinden de gerçekleşebilmektedir. Siyasal parti üzerinden gerçekleşen devşirme faaliyeti o partinin ulusal ve ulusaltı siyasette Hegemonik bir parti haline gelmesiyle sonuçlanmaktadır. Bu çalışmada günümüzün en etkili Hegemonik Partilerinden biri olan Birleşik Rusya ele alınacak ve onun aracılığıyla Putin’in kurmuş olduğu seçimli otoriter rejim incelenecektir. Çalışma Birleşik Rusya’nın nasıl “iktidar partisi” haline geldiğini, devşirme stratejisini nasıl sürdürdüğünü ve de bu süreç sonunda nasıl hegemonik bir parti konumuna eriştiğini irdeleyecektir. Çalışmamızın iddiası o dur ki, Putin yasal sınırlamalar ve zorlamalar ile Birleşik Rusya’yı “iktidar partisi” haline getirmiş ve böylece devşirme faaliyeti için zemini hazırlamıştır. Birleşik Rusya da bölgesel elitlere kaynak ve siyasaya erişme fırsatları sunarak onların parti üyesi olmasını sağlamıştır. Neticede 10 yıllık süreç içinde siyasal elitlerin kahir ekseriyeti doğrudan ve dolaylı yollarla devşirilmiş ve parti, hegemonik bir partiye dönüşmüştür. Putin de Birleşik Rusya sayesinde yönetme maliyetlerini düşürmüş, parti içi hizipleşmeleri kontrol altına almış ve toplumsal muhalefete önderlik edecek siyasi elitleri etkisizleştirmiştir.

Published: August 2022

Great success in synthetic chemistry is motivated by the development of novel and reactive linchpins for carbon-carbon and carbon-heteroatom bond formation reactions, that has dramatically altered chemists’ approach to building molecules. Herein, we report the readily synthesis of aryl sulfonium salts, a novel versatile electrophilic linchpin, via an unprecedented Cu-mediated thianthrenation and phenoxathiination of commercially available arylborons with thianthrene and phenoxathiine, providing a series of aryl sulfonium salts in high efficiency. More importantly, by leveraging the sequential Ir-catalyzed C–H borylation and Cu-mediated thianthrenation of arylborons, the formal thianthrenation of arenes are also achieved. As the Ir-catalyzed C–H borylation with undirected arenes normally occurred at the less steric hindrance position, thus providing a complementary method for thianthrenation of arenes in comparison with the electrophilic thianthrenation. This process is capable of late-stage functionalization of a series of pharmaceuticals, which might find wide synthetic applications in both industry and academic sectors.

Published: August 2022

Photomechanical molecular crystals are promising materials as photon-powered artificial actuators. To design and control the photomechanical responses, the spatiotemporal distribution of photoproducts in crystals could be a key factor in addition to molecular structures, molecular packings, illumination conditions, crystal morphology, crystal size, and so on. In this study, we have found that single crystals of 2,5-distyrylpyrazine show a smooth single-crystal-to-single-crystal photomechanical expansion, and the photochemical reaction propagates from the edge to the center of the single crystal. Moreover, we have performed a numerical simulation to reproduce the experimental results and revealed that both the cooperativity effect and the surface effect in the crystal are essential for the edge-to-center propagation of the photochemical reaction. Our results would provide a framework for analyzing the photochemical reaction dynamics in photoresponsive single crystals and a benchmark for future studies of photomechanical molecular crystals.
Backward Elimination: A Strategy for High-Entropy Alloy Catalyst Discovery
Authors: Mints Vladislav , Pedersen Jack Kirk , Wiberg Gustav Karl Henrik , Rossmeisl Jan , Arenz Matthias
Published: August 2022

A promising opportunity and major challenge in the field of High-Entropy Alloy (HEA) catalysis is the abundance of possible compositions. The number of possible compositions makes it impossible to study all of them. Therefore, sophisticated methods are required to intelligently select interesting compositions. On one hand, adding an element to a composition space increases the dimensionality of that space and the number of compositions within it combinatorially. However, it also increases the number of sub-spaces that are part of this larger composition space. Assuming a constant sampling density, the number of experiments required to study a large, combined composition space of sufficient dimensionality can be less than studying all of its individual sub-spaces. This hypothesis is investigated using experimental work in which 200 compositions in an 8-element composition space composed of Au, Ir, Os, Pd, Pt, Re, Rh, and Ru were synthesized as nanoparticles. Each composition was experimentally tested for the electrocatalytic activity towards the oxygen reduction reaction. The model that was constructed using this data turned out to adequately predict data in three of its 5-element composition sub-spaces. This observation paves way for a backward elimination strategy in HEA discovery. According to this strategy all elements of interest are studied in a single composition space from which knowledge of all subspaces can be learnt. Subsequently, elements that do not show a positive influence towards the studied reaction can be removed from the search space. Ultimately, this backward elimination search produces an alloy space which has a high probability of containing the most active catalyst composition.
Electric Fields and Charge Separation for Solid Oxide Fuel Cell Electrodes
Authors: Williams Nicholas , Seymour Ieuan , Fraggedakis Dimitrios , Skinner Stephen
Published: August 2022

Activation losses at solid oxide-fuel cell (SOFC) electrodes have been widely attributed to charge transfer at the electrode surface. The electrostatic nature of electrode-gas interactions allows us to study these phenomena by simulating an electric field across the electrode-gas interface, where we are able to describe the activation overpotential using Density Functional Theory (DFT). The electrostatic responses to the electric field are used to approximate the behaviour of an electrode under electrical bias, and have found a correlation with experimental data for three different reduction reactions at a mixed ionic-electronic conducting (MIEC) electrode surfaces (H_2O and CO_2 on CeO_2), and {O_2 on LaFeO_3). In this work , we demonstrate the importance of decoupled ion-electron transfer and charged adsorbates on the performance of electrodes under nonequilibrium conditions. Finally, our findings on MIEC-gas interactions have potential implications in the fields of energy storage and catalysis.

Published: August 2022

Sequestrants such as polyphosphate and sodium silicate are used widely to control iron precipitation in drinking water, but less is known about their impacts on iron corrosion scale. Here we characterize the nanoparticulate iron (oxyhydr)oxide suspensions that result from corroding cast iron coupons in solutions containing either sodium hexametaphosphate (3 mg P L-1) or sodium silicate (100 mg SiO2 L-1). We determined the elemental composition and size distribution of these suspensions using flow field-flow fractionation with ultraviolet, multielement, and multiangle light scattering detection (FFF-UV-MALS-ICP-MS). Both sequestrants yielded stable iron suspensions, and the pooled median radius of gyration at peak 57Fe intensity was 22 nm, corresponding to a sphere-equivalent geometric diameter of 57 nm. The median Feret diameter and ASTM roundness were 50 nm and 0.4, respectively, as determined by transmission electron microscopy. Lead associated readily with iron nanoparticles, and in the hexametaphosphate suspension it associated preferentially with iron over free hexametaphosphate. Sequestrants then, may interact with iron corrosion scale to yield effective transport vectors for lead in drinking water systems, even when complexation of free lead by the sequestrant is negligible.
Ultrafast photophysical studies of sulfonated polyaniline in aqueous medium by femtosecond transient absorption spectroscopy
Authors: Khatun Rijia , Majhi Koushik , Sinha Subrata
Published: August 2022

In our previous work (Khatun et al., J. Phys. Chem. A 122 (2018) 7089-7098), synthesis and characterization of sulfonated polyaniline (SPANI) were discussed. Photophysical properties of SPANI in aqueous medium were also investigated using steady state spectroscopic techniques, which suggested the co-existence of two conformations (‘A’ and ‘B’) of SPANI in the normal working low acidic medium. Also, combined red-edge effect was observed from the two conformations of SPANI in aqueous medium. In the present work, a detailed investigation is carried out on the ultrafast photophysical properties of SPANI in aqueous medium by employing femtosecond transient absorption spectroscopy based on pump-probe technique. It is found that excited state absorption from the S1 state of SPANI in aqueous medium to higher electronic states originates mostly due to the conformation ‘A’ in the whole spectral range and very weakly due to the conformation ‘B’ on the blue side of the spectra. These new findings are extremely important keeping in mind various potential applications of SPANI in the field of polymer optoelectronics.

Authors: Cokeker Ceren , Argun Sinem , Kırtıl Emrah
Published: August 2022

Celiac disease is a serious and lifelong disorder that is associated with gluten consumption. Celiac patients should commit to a strict gluten free diet. Besides celiac patients, gluten can also cause allergenic reactions in a significant portion of population. Thus, there is a growing trend in replacing sources of gluten with alternatives. This work concentrated on improving the quality and consumer acceptance of gluten-free cakes made out of rice flour by using quince seed extract, which is a unique hydrocolloid product that exhibits emulsification properties. The cake batter and cooked cakes were characterized in terms of water activity, color, porosity, emulsion stability, textural properties, rheological behavior and sensorial attributes. Emulsion stability results indicated an excellent improvement of physical stability of batter emulsions by addition of quince seed extract (QSE) and lecithin, which was identified with no visible phase separation in samples Q0.1E and Q0.2E. All cake batters displayed a pseudoplastic flow behavior with apparent viscosities and shear thinning behavior increasing substantially with increasing QSE concentrations. Hardness values gathered from texture profile analysis, implied that best cake texture was obtained via QSE and lecithin incorporation. Sensory analysis results also supported the same result in that, samples with egg yolk and QSE both, yielded a more preferable appearance and texture. Therefore, with this study, it was possible to observe the promising effects of QSE incorporation on cake batter and baked cake properties.

Authors: Khan Muhammad Kamran , Nazeer Shakira
Published: August 2022

This study draws on social identity, social learning, and trait-activation theories to probe if moral identity mediates the relationship between ethical leadership and unethical behavior. It investigates how ethical leadership serves as a predictor of employees’ unethical behavior and moral identity as a mediator between ethical leadership and employees’ unethical behavior. Together, these variables influence the self-reported unethical behavior of employees. The findings of this study are based on a sample of 297 oil and gas sector employees in Pakistan. For this purpose, data was analyzed through SPSS and AMOS. Consistent with trait-activation and social learning theories, employees on seeing their leaders behaving ethically develop a positive sense of the moral identity and report fewer incidences of unethical behavior. Furthermore, the findings suggested thatmoral identity and ethical leadership behavior are vital for predicting organizational outcomes. Thus, the originality of this study lies in the fact that it analyzed the influence of moral identity as a mediating variable.

The results of the analysis concluded that there was no relationship between age (pV=0.758), gender (pV=0.532), smoking (pV=1,000), body mass index (pV=0.571), exposure to H2S gas (pV=0.772) with blood glucose levels. This is probably because the main role of H2S in the pancreas is to protect pancreatic B cells and regulate insulin secretion. H2S can protect pancreatic b cells in the following three ways: (1) reducing ROS production; (2) inhibits the expression of thioredoxin binding protein-2-a redox protein associated with diabetes that promotes apoptosis; and (3) increased GSH content, all of which reduce oxidative stress damage.

The research was carried out from April-July 2021 in Kemang District, Sukaraja District, and Leuwiliang District. Based on criteria, the research was conducted through deeply personal interviews with the local community. The characteristic of the respondent was individual who has kemang and gardeners whose gardens contain kemang. The data obtained were analyzed descriptively. Based on interviews with 30 respondents, kemang was identified by looking at leaf color, leaf shape, stem, flower, and fruit compared to mango (Mangifera indica). Kemang mainly was found growing in gardens (74%). Kemang propagation was done by seed. The most used parts were fruit (43%) and shoots (39%). Both parts were consumed directly in a fresh form. Besides having a role as a food ingredient, kemang has potential as an antioxidant, anticancer, and anti-degenerative. The reason people still maintain kemang because the existence of kemang is getting rare, and the selling price of kemang fruit is relatively high compared to other types of mango. In addition, kemang can also prevent soil erosion. The conservation strategies of kemang are optimizing the socialization and publication of kemang benefit, developing kemang cultivation, and developing kemang as a local fruit commodity.
