The devil’s advocate: identifying persistent problems in serious game design
Authors: Westera Wim
Published: September 2022

After a long period of steady growth, games for learning and training (serious games) have become well accepted as productive teaching tools. This article argues, however, that a number of persistent weaknesses in current serious game design practice pose a barrier to harnessing the games´ full educational potential. For serious game designers it is quite a challenge to maintain a subtle and critical balance between gaming elements and didactic elements. Quite commonly counterproductive game preferences are being used that favour player experiences above learning efficacy, thereby neglecting established knowledge from instructional design, student guidance and assessment of learning outcomes. By taking up the role of the devil’s advocate, this article takes a critical look at current serious game design routines. The issues that are discussed include experiential learning, cognitive flow, motivation, scores and realism in serious games, among other things. Each topic is elaborated with reference to established educational research and is concluded and summarised with a claim. The main purpose of this article is to contribute to the overall quality of serious game design by identifying and opposing unfavourable design routines.

Published: September 2022

While multisourcing offers benefits such as access to best-of-breed resources and enhanced competition, it also presents clients with a new governance challenge, namely the need to ensure that vendors not only deliver their individual contributions but also collaborate to produce a coherent joint outcome. Clients can address this challenge by combining bilateral governance focused on each vendor’s individual performance with collective governance aimed at the vendors’ joint performance. However, it is unclear how the simultaneous application of bilateral and collective governance affects multisourcing performance. Indeed, the literature falls short in systematically differentiating these governance mechanisms and empirically examining their interplay. Drawing on existing work on multisourcing and on the outsourcing governance literature, we argue that bilateral and collective governance direct efforts toward different performance dimensions (individual vs. joint), invoke different metaphors (market vs. team), and promote conflicting norms (competitive vs. cooperative), which can result in trade-offs when bilateral and collective governance mechanisms are combined. Results from a survey of 189 multisourcing arrangements support our expectation that bilateral and collective governance promote different performance dimensions. Notably, one collective governance mechanism, conflict management procedures, contributes to both individual and joint performance. We find substitutional effects between bilateral and collective governance in relation to joint performance but not individual performance, indicating that the benefits of collective governance for joint performance are more easily compromised than the benefits of bilateral governance for individual performance. We also observe complementary effects within collective governance mechanisms. Our key contribution lies in theorizing and empirically examining the effects and interplay of bilateral and collective governance in multisourcing.

Published: September 2022

Over the course of their careers, IT professionals become embedded in their workplace. In the organizational behavior literature, research has found that job embeddedness provides direct, positive benefits for employers, including lower turnover intentions, lower levels of withdrawal behaviors, lower actual turnover, and more. In this paper, we present a more nuanced view, namely that embeddedness among IT professionals may influence the development of professionalized mindsets, which, in turn, has a mix of positive and negative consequences. To understand these relationships, we introduce a concept called workgroup embeddedness (WGE). WGE captures how IT professionals become embedded in their organizational workgroup or unit. We report a multiphase study that (1) developed a measure of WGE, (2) established the validity of WGE, and (3) evaluated the implications of WGE among 150 IT professionals using data collected at two points in time. We found that WGE drives an increase in professionalism, which, in turn, increases work-life conflict. Also, we found that both WGE and professionalism positively influence organizational citizenship behaviors. These findings indicate that WGE may play a role in socializing and driving more professionalized mindsets among IT professionals, such as professional identification, which leads to positive outcomes like citizenship behaviors but may come at the expense of negative consequences in professionals’ nonwork lives. Post hoc findings highlight that belief in public service and identification with the IT profession influence work-life conflict and organizational citizenship. We conclude with implications for research and practice.

Published: September 2022

Online collaboration communities are increasingly taking on new roles beyond knowledge creation and exchange, especially the role of a skill-signaling channel for career-motivated community members. This paper examines the contingency effects of job-market conditions for career-motivated knowledge contributions in online collaboration communities. From the data of individual-level activities in a computer programming-related online Q&A community (Stack Overflow), merged with job-market data for software developers, we find robust evidence of a positive association between community members’ career motivations and their knowledge contributions. More importantly, we find that this positive relationship is strengthened by job-market conditions: the number of vacancies in the job market, the expected salaries from these jobs, and the transparency in the flow of career-related information between the community and external recruiters. We contribute to the motivation literature in online collaboration communities by identifying and substantiating the role of contextual factors in mobilizing members’ career motivation. Our study thus offers novel insight into how career motivation can be effectively utilized to motivate contributors in these communities. Our findings also point to a possible paradigm change by characterizing online collaboration communities as emerging institutions for career motivation and skill signaling.

Published: September 2022

The article aims to analyze jokes in Ukrainian laughter culture context. It stresses on the chosen topic relevance and researchers' growing interest to Ukrainian national identity, national character, spiritual culture specific features and various phenomena associated with Ukrainian humor, satire, and picture of the laughter world. The article attempts to determine the place and peculiarities of a separate series of modern Ukrainian jokes, i.e. jokes about godfathers. Special attention is paid to joke as a cultural phenomenon which is due to laughter folk culture signs presence in it: various manifestations of human life parody when its ideals and values are humiliated, moral standards are devalued to affirm opposite positive ones, the absurd way of life realities presentation. The authors analyze the mechanism of comic effect occurrence in jokes which becomes possible under certain conditions when person's everyday countless little things of life generate a comic situation which is the result of the inconsistency of the expected and true communication of man and society. The discrepancy between what has already gone but keeps on pretending to be alive creates a comic effect. The study notes that the Ukrainian laughter culture has its own peculiarities. They are the lack of devastating reflection, good-naturedness, life-affirming nature, benevolence, and self-irony. The special place of jokes about godfathers among Ukrainian jokes is emphasized. Those jokes are united in one series by their main participants of events and filled with mental humor and Ukrainian flavor. The concept 'godfather' in Ukrainian mentality and Ukrainian jokes is revealed. The article demonstrates on concrete examples the comedy mechanism, national Ukrainian character traits embodiment in godfather's image, ways, and technics of comic effect. The analysis of the selected material shows that jokes about best men are an important component of the laughter culture of Ukrainians. Jokes about godfathers as examples of Ukrainian laughter culture require further in-depth research, generalization and systematization. Investigations can have different directions, including the analysis of the means of creating a comic, be dedicated to the detection of the functions of the joke, its genre features.

Published: September 2022

Background: Surgical resection is the treatment of choice for Klatskin tumor, when possible, but unfortunately, many patients present with the late-stage and unresectable disease. A large number of studies have confirmed that arterial chemotherapy is safe and effective for the palliative treatment of primary and secondary hepatic malignancies. Aim: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of hepatic arterial infusion in patients with Klatskin tumor. Methods: Between 2010 and 2021, 14 of 119 patients with inoperable Klatskin tumor were treated with hepatic arterial infusion of GemCis at the A.M. Granov RRCRST. All the patients had obstructive jaundice and received percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage. Chemotherapy was started when the serum bilirubin level became normal (averagely on the 106th day from percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage). In total, 19 (from 1 to 4 per patient) hepatic arterial infusion cycles were performed. Results: Percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage complications such as cholangitis (n=2) and local peritonitis (n=1) developed in 3 patients (21%) and were successfully treated using minimally invasive techniques. The toxicity of chemotherapy was observed in 8 of 14 patients (57%): III degree hematological toxicity (43%) and gastrointestinal toxicity (50%); these complications were cured by medical therapy. The overall mean survival was 286 days (9.6 months), the median survival was 283 days (9.4 months). Conclusions: Our preliminary results show that hepatic arterial infusion in patients with Klatskin tumor is safe, but has limited effectiveness. The combination of arterial infusion with other methods such as radiotherapy, intra-ductal photodynamic therapy, radiofrequency ablation, target therapy, should be investigated.

Published: September 2022

BACKGROUND: Cultivated plants grown in the northern regions of Russia are subject to strict requirements in terms of their ability to produce a high yield during short growing season. Important adaptive traits that affect crop yield are early maturity and insensitivity to photoperiod. The search and involvement in breeding programs of new sources of these valuable traits is a necessary step for the creation of new ecologically plastic varieties.
THE AIM: To identify alleles of the Eam8 gene, which determine weak photoperiodic sensitivity, among Japanese barley accessions from the N.I. Vavilov All-Russian Institute of Plant Genetic Resources (VIR) collection.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: Screening of 200 barley accessions from Japan was carried out in a climatic chamber in order to identify plants with yellow color of seedlings a marker sign of the influence of the eam8 allele, which controls early maturity and low sensitivity to the photoperiod. The presumably photoperiod-insensitive accession was studied under conditions of long and short photoperiods and was studied by molecular methods.
RESULTS: Phenotypic screening identified a presumably photoperiod-insensitive accession k-17545 (Jap.456). The photoperiodic sensitivity of the accession and the variety Mari (carrier of the recessive eam8 allele) were similar. Using molecular analysis, the eam8.k allele, occurred naturally in the cultivars Kinai 5 and Kagoshima Gold from Japan, was found in the k-17545 line. The Jap.456 was polymorphic by srorage proteins (hordein) patterns and RAPD profiles. In addition, previously undescribed SNPs in the eam8.k sequence were identified in individual plants.
CONCLUSIONS: As a result of the study of 200 accessions of barley from Japan, accession k-17545 (Jap.456) was found, in which the eam8.k allele was identified, which controls weak sensitivity to the photoperiod.

Grapes are an economically important agricultural plant. Studies of the Grapevine microbiota and rhizosphere have become increasingly important in the last decade. The importance of such research is also supported by the fact that grapes are a perennial, long-used crop.
In this work, we present the results of a DNA-metabarcoding analysis of the fungal community of grape wood, collected from vineyards in the Krasnodar Territory and the Southern Coast of Crimea, and considered approaches to the analysis of DNA-metabarcoding data. Classifier is Nave base (sklearn) based on machine learning is more informative metagenomic data classifier than BLAST+ (local alignment) and Vsearch (global alignment). Analysis of the ITS locus revealed the largest number of taxa, which was confirmed for all types of classifiers used in the study. Primers for the ITS locus showed a high specificity of fungal DNA in comparison with the LSU and SSU loci. The most common genera in the fungal community are Acidea, Alternaria, Cladosporium and Fusarium. Significant differences were revealed in the assessment of alpha and beta diversity in the analysis of samples from different regions. This article presents an analysis of the wood grapevine fungal community and ways to ASV classification. This study is the first to describe the endophytic fungal communities of the Krasnodar Territory and the Crimea vines using the analysis of DNA metabarcoding data.
Phylogeny problems of the genus Vaccinium L. and ways to solve them
Authors: Zhidkin Roman R. , Matveeva Tatyana V.
Published: September 2022

The genus Vaccinium includes almost 500 species, among which there are economically important species of cranberries V. macrocarpon Ait. and V. oxycoccos L., lingonberries V. vitis-idaea L., bilberries V. myrtillus L. and blueberries V. uliginosum L., V. angustifolium Ait., V. corymbosum L., V. virgatum Ait. Despite the fact that many of these species were actively used by humans in medicine and food, their active selection began in the 20th century, in connection with which a classification of the genus according to morphological characters was developed. Many of these data remain relevant to the present day. The development of the ideas of molecular phylogeny prompted a revision of the old classification, identifying a number of difficulties that do not allow one to unambiguously determine phylogenetic relationships within the genus. Today, the genus includes 33 sections, while the species composition of the sections and the evolutionary relationships between them remain controversial. This review discusses various approaches to the study of the structure of the genus Vaccinium: from classical to phylogenomic, the main results of using these approaches and their prospects.
A method for predicting the effectiveness of glucocorticoid therapy in patients with moderate COVID-19 based on simple clinical and laboratory data
Authors: Efremov Dmitry O , Beloborodov Vladimir B.
Published: September 2022

Background: In patients hospitalized with coronavirus infection (COVID-19), methods for predicting the effectiveness of anti-inflammatory therapy have important practical implications for optimizing treatment and outcomes. To date, a number of indicators of COVID-19 patients (age, comorbidities, laboratory criteria for the intensity of inflammation) have been identified that indicate a high probability of a severe course and a risk of an adverse outcome. However, the problem of predicting the effectiveness of anti-inflammatory therapy in patients with moderate COVID-19 is not well understood.
Aims: to develop a predictive model to determine the effectiveness/failure of glucocorticosteroid (GCS) monotherapy in patients with moderate COVID-19.
Methods. Retrospective analysis of electronic medical record data of all patients admitted consecutively from October 1, 2020 to January 31, 2021. The study included 71 patients with a probable (clinically confirmed) and confirmed (laboratory) case of COVID-19 of moderate course, with characteristic changes in the lungs according to computed tomography of the chest organs (CT-CCT). Given the severity of the course, all patients in this sample were prescribed GCS in accordance with the current version of the Interim Guidelines of the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation.
Results. A total of 71 patients were studied, 53 (74.7%) of them did not require an escalation of anti-inflammatory therapy, which was regarded as an effective use of corticosteroids in the form of monotherapy (group 1). In the remaining 18 patients, the use of corticosteroids for an average of 5.5 (from 3 to 6) days did not have a definite clinical effect and required the additional use of monoclonal antibodies (MCA) to interleukin-6 (IL-6) or to its receptor (group 2). Using logistic regression analysis and ROC analysis, a mathematical model was developed and evaluated to predict the outcome of anti-inflammatory corticosteroid therapy in patients with moderate COVID-19. As risk factors, indicators were selected that had significant differences in the studied groups before the appointment of GCS: the number of lymphocytes, platelets and body temperature.The quality of the constructed model is assessed as very good, the optimal cutoff point is 0.697. The sensitivity index of the model is 81.1%, the specificity index is 72.2%.
Conclusions. The mathematical model makes it possible to predict the effectiveness of GCS therapy according to the number of lymphocytes, platelets and body temperature. The mathematical model is adequate, has a high sensitivity and specificity.

Published: September 2022

Background: Dengue fever is a debilitating viral disease, transmitted by mosquitoes, and causes sudden fever, and acute pain in the joints. Aedes Aegyptus mosquitos are responsible for dengue fever. More than 500,000 people are affected by dengue fever each year. In Bangladesh, over 15,000 cases of dengue are reported each year. It is high time to take some measures to control this viral disease. The aim of the study was to investigate the clinical manifestation of dengue fever in tertiary care hospitals.Methods: It is a prospective cross-sectional study that was carried out in the pediatric department of Dhaka medical college hospital (DMCH) over one year and was conducted with 106 patients.Results: The finding had females dominant over males. Minimum and maximum ages were 1 and 14 respectively. All patients (106, 100%) had fever. Around one-third of the patients (34,32%) had headaches. Patients had experienced rash and vomiting. The Tourniquet test came out positive for about one-fifth of the patients (21, 19.8%). About half of the study population (50, 47.2%) had dengue fever, around two-fifth of the patients (44, 41.5%) experienced dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) and only 12 patients (12, 11.3%) were diagnosed with dengue shock syndrome (DSS). The majority of the patients (102, 96.22%) were given isotonic fluid. Ns1 antigen for dengue 65 cases and IgM & IgG for dengue 32 cases were positive.Conclusions: Dengue is a rapidly emerging pandemic disease in many parts of the world, especially in Bangladesh. There is no accurate treatment to treat dengue patients. However, more illness and death could be prevented if countries regularly monitor the circulation of viruses in the mosquitos and take control measures before there are consequential outbreaks.

Published: September 2022

Background: Nurses are one of the professions that are prone to violence. In many cases, violence against nurses often goes undetected because they are not reported and do not have a compliant institution. Violence against nurses in the workplace can negatively affect performance and service quality. One aspect related to the incidence of violence is the excessive number of working hours (Overtime). Overtime is thought to have caused fatigue in nurses and reduced concentration, resulting in violent incidents. Therefore, it is necessary to research the relationship between overtime and workplace violence (WPV) (Physical violence and psychological violence) against nurses at Aceh Provincial Government Hospital.Methods: This research uses a quantitative method with a cross-sectional study design. The research was conducted at Aceh Provincial Government Hospital from May 31 to June 14, 2022. Of a total sample of 161 respondents, 127 could participate in this study, so the response rate was 78.9%. Thirty-four samples were excluded from prospective respondents because they did not meet the inclusion criteria. Sampling used a total sampling technique, all nurses working in the emergency room, pediatric room, pediatric surgery room, internal medicine for men, and internal medicine at Aceh Provincial Government Hospital. Data analysis used univariate and bivariate.Results: The study found a relationship between overtime and psychological violence against nurses at Aceh Provincial Government Hospital (p=0.000). Meanwhile, there was no physical violence relationship between nurses at Aceh Provincial Government Hospital (p=0.290).Conclusions: Overtime working hours are related to incidents of psychological/non-physical violence against nurses working at Aceh Provincial Government Hospital.

Biomedical waste (BMW) is any waste delivered during the analysis, therapy, or vaccination of human or creature research exercises relating thereto or in the creation or testing of natural or wellbeing camps. The age of biomedical waste isn't confined to explicit exercises or associations. It can start from home during dialysis and utilizing insulin infusions, creature wellbeing exercises in country regions, butchering of wiped out creatures in butcher houses, clinical shops, utilization of sterile napkins and tiny headphones, utilization of diapers, and air terminals when travellers through away confined medications without a remedy. Regardless of the natural effects, therapy and removal of biomedical waste stay a careless movement bringing about microbes entering food because of the blending of irresistible creature squander with meat. It is likewise a typical practice in many emerging nations to supply meat got from creatures with irresistible illnesses which thusly may defile food with which it comes in touch.

Study of correlation between daily calorie intake (DCI) and body composition in type 2 DM patients using bioimpedance analysis as a screening tool
Authors: Dube Sunil R , Dube Manjree , Sabnis Shwet , Damle Sayali
Published: September 2022

Evaluation of body composition (BC) represents a valuable screening tool to assess nutritional status among diabetic patients. The most commonly used methods to evaluate BC in the clinical practice are based on bicompartmental models such as dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) etc. Factors like daily caloric intake (DCI), percentage of total body water (%TBW), muscle mass and bone mass and the changes that occur in these components with age could be related to the development of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The objective of the study is to use Bioimpedance Analysis (BIA) as a screening tool to assess the correlation between these parameters in type 2 diabetic patients.

This study was conducted on 200 T2DM patients aged 25-45 years for a duration of 6 months in an urban out-patients clinic after obtaining proper informed consent and ethics committee approval. A multifrequency body composition monitor TANITA MC 980 was used to analyse muscle mass, bone mass and %TBW. The impedance readings were entered into medically researched formulae to calculate body composition. The results were correlated with DCI.

The study results showed a strong correlation between DCI and muscle mass (p<0.01). Scatter diagram analysis showed that muscle mass has a significant correlation with DCI at p<0.01. No significant correlation was observed between bone mass, and metabolic age with DCI. Joint regression analysis by ANOVA showed a significant correlation between %TBW and muscle mass with DCI at p<0.05.

This study showed a strong correlation between DCI and increasing muscle mass and basal metabolic rate among diabetic patients. It also shows that BIA is a useful tool for clinical studies in assessing the correlation between DCI and body composition among type 2 diabetic patients.

: The word ‘adolescence’ is derived from the Latin verb ‘adolescere’, which means “grow to maturity.” The World Health Organization (WHO) defines adolescents as young people aged 10-19 years. There are about 1.2 billion adolescents, a fifth of the world’s population. Nutrition is key to unlocking the potential of investment in the health of women, children and adolescents.

After obtaining necessary permission from Vadodara Mahanagar Seva Sadan 250 unmarried adolescent girls aged 15-19 years were enrolled in the study. Data on Socio-Economic background (SES) for enrolled girls’ families, Weight and Height was collected using pre-tested semi structured questionnaire. Thinness was assessed using age and sex specific WHO cut-offs for BMI for age (5-19Y). Stunting was identified using WHO cut-offs for Height for age criteria.

Mean age of the adolescent girls was 16.3 years. 62% of the adolescent girls were attending school. 70% of adolescent girls were belonging to reserve category (SC/ST/OBC). It was found that 15.2 % and 6.4% of the girls were moderately and severely thin respectively. Only 13.2 % adolescent girls had normal BMI for age. Prevalence of stunting was 80.8%.

Thinness and stuntingin unmarried adolescent girls (15-19 years) of urban area is a cause of concern.

Numerical Compliance with Fiscal Rules in Latin America and the Caribbean
Authors: Valencia Oscar , Ulloa-Suarez Carolina
Published: September 2022

This paper introduces a dataset that gathers information on whether and how Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) have complied with or deviated from implemented fiscal rules. It provides annual data on fiscal rules for 14 LAC countries from 2000 to 2020, and it considers the design features of the rules and information about numerical compliance. It provides descriptive statistics reflecting the panorama of the fiscal rules implemented in LAC countries. Additionally, it calculates compliance rates across countries, years, and rules. On average, this study finds that compliance with rules aiming to constrain debt ratios and structural balances is the highest, while compliance with fiscal balance and expenditure rules is the lowest. Furthermore, the data collection process revealed that LAC countries still have room for discretion even when they subject their fiscal policy to rules. To address this problem, the paper proposes an adjusted compliance index that considers different elements that add degrees of discretion to the rule. The study finds that the numerical compliance rates of each country are likely to be over-estimated once discretionary actions are accounted for.

ПРО ПЕРСПЕКТИВИ РОЗВИТКУ КРИМІНАЛІСТИЧНОЇ МЕТОДОЛОГІЇ
Authors: Ланцедова Юлія , Грекова Лілія
Published: September 2022

Мета: запропонувати найбільш обґрунтований варіант класифікації криміналістичних методів і розуміння сутності кожного з власне криміналістичних методів дослідження. Методи дослідження: порівняльно-правовий аналіз, пізнавально-аналітичний та ін. Результати: запропонований варіант класифікації криміналістичних методів і розуміння сутності кожного з базисних власне криміналістичних методів дослідження. Обговорення: на основі аналізу основних точок зору підтриманий та розвинений запропонований Ю.Д. Ткачем варіант класифікації криміналістичних методів дослідження на базисний метод дослідження, загальнонаукові методи і криміналістичні методи з подальшим розподілом останньої з груп методів на власне криміналістичні методи (базисні власне криміналістичні методи, загальні власне криміналістичні методи, часткові власне криміналістичні методи) та запозичені криміналістичні методи.

Звернуто увагу, що відмінність індивідуальної і групової ідентифікації засновано лише на кількості і якості на трасосприймальному об’єкті або всередині нього тих ідентифікаційних ознак, які дозволяють зробити висновок про їх належність лише конкретному трасоутворювальному об’єкту або тільки певної групи трасоутворювальних об’єктів.
САНКЦІЯ НОРМИ КРИМІНАЛЬНОГО ПРАВА ПО ПРОЕКТУ КРИМІНАЛЬНОГО КОДЕКСУ УКРАЇНИ
Authors: Митрофанов Ігор
Published: September 2022

Мета: аналіз особливостей побудови санкцій норм кримінального права й санкційних велінь для однозначного застосування суддями покарань у вироках під час «запуску» механізму реалізації кримінальної відповідальності осіб, які винно вчинили злочини, передбачені проектом КК України. У цій статті в юридичному пізнанні санкції норми кримінального права застосовувалися такі наукові методи: аналіз, синтез, систематизація, узагальнення теоретичних результатів дослідження. Результати: функціональна роль санкції норми кримінального права проявляється в її можливостях впливати на реалізацію обов’язку не вчиняти злочинів, передбачених Кримінальним кодексом України. Обговорення: регулювання поведінки учасників суспільних відносин є підсумком взаємодії елементів норми права (правил поведінки й пов’язаних з ними велінь), що формує основу для реалізації запрограмованої моделі поведінки за допомогою санкції.

КРИМІНОЛОГІЧНИЙ АНАЛІЗ ПОКАЗНИКІВ ВИМІРЮВАННЯ КРИМІНАЛЬНИХ ПРАВОПОРУШЕНЬ ПРОТИ БЕЗПЕКИ РУХУ ТА ЕКСПЛУАТАЦІЇ ТРАНСПОРТУ В УКРАЇНІ
Authors: Новіков Олег
Published: September 2022

Мета: встановлення сучасного стану та тенденцій динаміки кримінальних правопорушень проти безпеки руху та експлуатації транспорту в Україні на підставі офіційних статистичних даних. Методологічну основу дослідження склали як загальнонаукові, так і специфічні статистичні методи пізнання (зокрема: статистичне спостереження, зведення і групування даних, абсолютні і відносні показники, табличний і графічний методи тощо). Результати: найбільша кількість кримінальних правопорушень проти безпеки руху та експлуатації транспорту виявляється у м. Києві, Дніпропетровській, Одеській, Харківській, Київській та Львівській областях, а найменше – у Луганській, Чернігівській, Тернопільській, Кіровоградській та Хмельницькій областях. За останні 5 років фіксується негативна динаміка досліджуваних кримінальних правопорушень. Обговорення: автор наголошує на необхідності проведення кримінологічних досліджень латентності кримінальних правопорушень проти безпеки руху та експлуатації транспорту.
КОНСТИТУЦІЙНА СКАРГА В УКРАЇНІ ТА КРАЇНАХ ЄВРОПЕЙСЬКОГО СОЮЗУ: ПОРІВНЯЛЬНИЙ АСПЕКТ
Authors: П'єцко Юлія

THE PENALTY OF RESTRICTION OF LIBERTY IN THE POLISH PENAL CODE
Authors: Nazar Katarzyna
Published: September 2022

Purpose: to examine the provisions of Articles 34 and 35 of the Polish Penal Code governing the penalty of restriction of liberty and the form in which it is imposed. Methods: the basic method used in the analysis is the legal dogmatic method. Results: pursuant to Article 34 § 1 of the Penal Code, unless otherwise provided by law, the penalty of restriction of liberty shall be for not less than one month and not more than 2 years; it is imposed in months or years. In accordance with Article 34 § 1a PC, the penalty of restriction of liberty involves: the obligation to provide unpaid, supervised work for community purposes; the deduction of 10 to 25% from the monthly salary for the social purpose indicated by the court. The obligations and deductions referred to in § 1a are to be imposed combined or separately. When serving a sentence of restriction of liberty, a convicted person may not change his place of habitual residence without the court’s consent and is required to provide explanations as to the serving of his sentence. Article 35 of the Penal Code provides that unpaid, supervised work for community purposes is to be carried out between 20 and 40 hours per month. A deduction may be imposed against an employed person; in the period for which the deduction is imposed, the person convicted cannot terminate the employment relationship without the consent of the court. Discussion: it is worth noting the increasing importance of the penalty of restriction of liberty in the total number of convictions, which leads to a conclusion that it was appropriate to introduce such a punishment into Polish criminal law. This seems to correspond to current trends in criminal policy.
РОЛЬ ЗАКЛАДІВ ЮРИДИЧНОЇ ВИЩОЇ ОСВІТИ ДЛЯ РОЗВИТКУ ГРОМАДЯНСЬКОГО СУСПІЛЬСТВА
Authors: Водоласкова Катерина
Published: September 2022

Мета: дослідити основні фактори впливу юридичних вищих закладів на формування та розвиток громадянського суспільства в Україні та світі. Методи дослідження: порівняння, аналізу, індукції, дедукції, пізнавально-аналітичний та інші засоби. Результати: узагальнено вимоги щодо забезпечення якісної юридичної освіти, яка є необхідною умовою для розвитку основних інституцій громадянського суспільства. Обгрунтовано практичне та теоретичне значення закладів юридичної вищої освіти для розвитку громадянського суспільства. Обговорення: з урахуванням історичних, політичних та інших чинників у країнах світу динамічні процеси розвитку громадянського суспільства формувалися та розвиваються за різними показниками та умовами. Проте суспільство в усьому світі постало перед єдиною необхідністю переосмислення ролі та суті громадянського суспільства. Наразі роль права набуває все більшого значення для врегулювання відносин між громадянським суспільством та державними впливами. Практичні та функціональні основи підтримки та розвитку громадянського суспільства забезпечуються, зокрема, завдяки і досягненню місії юридичних навчальних закладів вищої освіти.

Враховуючи складний динамічний процес формування та розвитку громадянського суспільства та його складових, вбачається за необхідне продовжити розпочате провідними вченими у галузі права та інших соціальних наук щодо внеску сучасних закладів вищої освіти, зокрема, юридичного спрямування, у розвиток громадянського суспільства.
