Published: February 2025

The intense competition in today’s global market drives companies to adopt strategies like mergers and acquisitions (M&A) to enhance their competitive edge. This study, focusing on public companies in ASEAN, examines the relationship between M&A activity and acquiring firms' performance through three profitability ratios while accounting for the type of M&A. Using purposive sampling, 188 paired samples were analyzed through a paired sample t-test to assess profitability changes before and after M&A transactions. An independent sample t-test was conducted on 254 samples to compare the profitability of related versus unrelated M&As. The findings reveal that M&A activities are generally associated with a decline in profitability, particularly in return on assets (ROA) and return on equity (ROE). No significant difference in profitability was found between related and unrelated M&As. The results align with agency and hubris theories, contributing to the ongoing discourse on the implications of M&As on acquiring firms' performance.

Authors: Sari Ratna Candra , Zuhrohtun Zuhrohtun , Pranesti Arin , Yudhiyati Ratna , Udhma Umi Syafaatul , Nurbaiti Novita
Published: February 2025

This study investigates the impact of digital financial literacy (DFL) on the financial resilience of women entrepreneurs. The research adopts an explanatory approach, drawing on data from 208 women entrepreneurs based in Yogyakarta and Central Java, Indonesia. To test the proposed hypotheses, partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) was employed. The findings indicate that DFL significantly influences financial behavior, with these effects extending to future financial decisions. Enhancing DFL among women entrepreneurs positively affects their financial behavior, ultimately contributing to greater financial resilience. A key contribution of this research lies in its focus on women entrepreneurs, a demographic often overlooked in studies on financial literacy. Additionally, the study distinguishes between spending and saving behaviors by separating current financial actions from those intended for the future. This distinction enables a more nuanced analysis of how different financial behaviors, facilitated by digital financial technologies, affect financial resilience.

Published: February 2025

Objective: The objective of this study is to evaluate the performance of the model (BAM - Brazilian Atmospheric Model) in simulating regional climate variability in the NEB and the associated atmospheric circulation characteristics during the austral summers of 2011 (La Niña), 2014 (Normal), and 2016 (El Niño).
 
Method: For this study, climate simulation data from the BAM model were used, along with Precipitation data from the Global Precipitation Climatology Project (GPCP). Data on zonal and meridional components from the MERRA2 reanalysis were used, and in addition to the zonal and meridional components, air temperature at 850 hPa from ERA5 was also utilized. A comparison was made between the BAM data and the ERA-5, MERRA2, and GPCP data. To assess the model's efficiency, the following statistical methods were used: Pearson Correlation (r), Mean Bias (BIAS), and Root Mean Square Error (RMSE).
 
Results and Discussion: The analyses show that the BAM model was skillful in simulating atmospheric circulation patterns and air temperature at lower and upper levels of the atmosphere over the NEB, as well as interannual variability during the aforementioned summers, when compared to the ERA5 and MERRA2 reanalyses, and for precipitation when compared to the GPCP data. The best performance was observed for the air temperature field across all investigated areas, relative to the precipitation field, during the three austral summers.
 
Research Implications: Based on the analyses of the BAM model, we can assist both in diagnosing and forecasting the impacts of climate variability in specific regions of the NEB, leading to more effective action policies to mitigate the impacts caused by droughts affecting this region.
 
Originality/Value: The study presents the initial analyses and validations of the BAM model data, demonstrating the model's efficiency and skill in improving studies and forecasts in the NEB region, particularly in future scenarios affected by climate change.

Authors: Vieira Passos Felipe , Carrasco-Gutierrez Carlos Enrique
Published: February 2025

Os preços de commodities estão sujeitos a variações e incertezas, e, por isso, o entendimento dos movimentos e previsões tem um papel importante na tomada de decisão dos agentes econômicos, seja para planejamento produtivo, hedge e até especulações. Assim, este trabalho teve como objetivo investigar e prever o preço do açúcar no mercado futuro de New York utilizando o filtro de Kalman em modelagem estrutural, no período de 2000-2021. Os principais resultados mostram que as flutuações de tendência e cíclicas têm grande importância para explicar os movimentos do preço. Além disso, foram encontrados outros componentes não observáveis, como inclinação e evidencias de sazonalidade. Dos 60 períodos em que foram feitas previsões, 42 ficaram com menos de 6% de distância do valor realizado, sendo que 30 casos ficaram abaixo de 3% e 13 abaixo de 1,5%. Ainda, verificou-se que o modelo demonstrou capacidade de projeção superior aos tradicionais SARIMA e GARCH, tendo erro percentual médio absoluto de 5,75%, um valor bastante razoável, considerando toda a incerteza que envolve o mercado.
Income Property in Moscow at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries as an economic phenomenon
Authors: Orchakova Larisa Gennad'evna , Ilmiev Roman Imranovich
Published: February 2025

The turn of the 19th to the 20th century marked a period of industrialization and urbanization that significantly impacted social and economic dynamics. Moscow, like other metropolises of the time, experienced rapid urban population growth, creating a demand for both housing and commercial spaces. In this context, studying the emergence and development of income properties is highly relevant as it sheds light on how urban spaces, society, and human relationships to housing transformed under the influence of economic and social changes during this period. This research examines and analyzes the role and place of income properties within the urban housing system, assessing how accessible life in such buildings was for city dwellers, the economic foundations behind their emergence, and the impact of their construction on Moscow's architectural landscape. The conclusion offers a summarized evaluation of the economic, social, and cultural significance of income properties in Moscow. The scientific novelty of this study lies in the underexplored history of Moscow's income properties from financial-economic and social perspectives. Firstly, analyzing financial-economic aspects allows for a deeper understanding of investment mechanisms in urban real estate and their influence on market formation. Investigating the motives and financial strategies of owners and investors in income properties can illuminate the reasons behind the success or failure of such ventures, as well as their role in the city's economic development. Secondly, exploring social aspects enables an examination of issues related to social mobility, population structure, and social changes occurring within the context of urban development. These topics broaden our understanding of the city's social history. Studying these relationships will introduce previously unpublished materials into circulation, systematizing existing data based on diverse sources of information.
Content Marketing as a Tool for Promoting Mass Media Brand
Authors: Baranova Ekaterina Andreevna
Published: February 2025

With the rise of social media, content marketing has become one of the essential tools for achieving success in online marketing campaigns. Successfully promoting an organization through the free distribution of useful content that meets user needs builds trust in the brand and increases its expertise. Business promotion using Mass Media began in 1924. At that time, the American company Sears launched its own radio program aimed at farmers. In the 21st century, the media began to actively use content marketing tools to attract audiences to their Internet resources and thus increase awareness of their own brands. This article examines content marketing as a tool for promoting a media company in the digital environment. The author analyzes the content of the media with valuable (often at the everyday level) information for the consumer, which is good to share on social networks (stories - useful household tips; online tests; posts on social networks of media companies with images of animals, natural phenomena) etc. Today, ideas about the functions of the media in society have transformed. The audience began to be viewed not as a passive recipient, but as a communication partner. The author comes to the conclusion that in the condition of traditional media crisis in the Internet space, traditional methods of creating media products and marketing technologies begin to interact harmoniously. Gamification in the context of media practice significantly influences the way journalistic content is presented and how it is perceived. A variety of Mass Media actively use entertaining, “light” content, focusing on attracting a larger number of users, due to which the quality of published information often suffers. Content marketing is also actively used by healthcare companies to convey their strengths, missions, and values.

Authors: Parfenenko Elena Nikolaevna
Published: February 2025

This article is devoted to the study of the complex structure of the concept of correctional institution, which can be represented by both terms and commonly used lexemes in a comparative aspect. The subject of the work is lexico-semantic representation of the concept of correctional institution in English and Russian terminosystems in the field of jurisprudence. The purpose of the study is to identify the features of verbal representation of the concept of correctional institution in English and Russian texts in the field of law. When writing the article the following research methods were used: method of comparative analysis, method of component analysis. The central concept in the functional-semantic field, representing the concept of "correctional institution" in the English language is "prison". However, along with it, the terms "jail" and "penitentiary" are present in the everyday vocabulary of native speakers, which together are part of the official business and artistic styles. This work establishes the frequency and conceptuality of each of the above terms, based on the method of comparative analysis, the external conditions under which the use of a particular concept is semantically conditioned are established. Using the method of analogy, it was revealed which of the synonyms available in the English language most correspond to the Russian-language terms "prison", "pre-trial detention center", "colony". The practical value of the article consists in the possibility of using its materials in the compilation of dictionaries, as well as in the development of classes on comparative terminology of English and Russian languages, comparative lexicology of English and Russian languages, intercultural communication in universities.
Disinformation in the media: problems, challenges and solutions
Authors: Direev Ivan Dmitrievich
Published: February 2025

This author studied the issues of disinformation in the mass media. The reasons for the spread of disinformation, its impact on society and possible measures to reduce its impact are analyzed. Special attention is paid to the role of new technologies and social networks in spreading false information. In the era of globalization and the rapid development of information technology, information has gained key importance, influencing all aspects of public life. The media has become the main channel of information dissemination, shaping public opinion and influencing political processes. However, along with this, a serious problem has arisen — disinformation, the dissemination of false or distorted information for the purpose of manipulation. Disinformation in the media undermines public confidence in information sources, contributes to the polarization of opinions and leads to incorrect political decisions. With the rapid development of the Internet and social networks, fake news and manipulation are becoming more sophisticated and widespread, which raises serious concerns about the stability and security of society. The scientific novelty of the work lies in an interdisciplinary approach linking the theories of media interaction, cognitive psychology and political science. Unlike previous studies that focus on individual aspects (for example, fact-checking), this article considers disinformation as a systemic phenomenon that requires a multi-level response. The research hypothesis is that effective counteraction to disinformation is possible only with the synthesis of "hard" measures (platform regulation, AI moderation) and "soft" tools (media literacy, strengthening trust in expertise). This study sets the framework for a detailed analysis, emphasizing that disinformation is not just a technical problem, but a symptom of the deep social and political contradictions of the digital age. The article also focuses on the role of new technologies and social networks in spreading false information.
Philosophical foundations of the study of the problem of involvement in additional education: encouragement and development of subjectivity of adult learners
Authors: Bragina Elena Vladimirovna
Published: February 2025

The problem of the development of subjectivity of adult students enrolled in additional education programs occupies an important place in psychological and pedagogical research. In the development of vocational training programs, the personality of the student is an integral factor that encourages additional education and meaningful involvement in educational activities. The success of building a student's personality in the vocational education system depends on its active subjectivity and autonomy. The relevance of research is due to the difficulties associated with the ambiguity of understanding this concept and its substantive elements in the psychology of education. A promising area of research is the clarification of the concepts of subjectivity, the possibility of its development in the educational process of higher professional education in the synthesis of an interdisciplinary matrix of psychological and pedagogical knowledge. Philosophy provides many prerequisites and perspectives for analyzing and understanding the subjective position of students. The concept of subjectivity in philosophy lays the foundation for understanding the use of the potential of philosophical knowledge in improving psychological and pedagogical approaches to the development of subjectivity and autonomy of adult learners. Each of the existing directions can contribute to understanding the role of an adult in the educational process of vocational education as an independent subject. The conducted research is aimed at enriching the educational discourse on the problem of adult learner subjectivity in the expanding contexts of additional learning by analyzing three trends in the evolution of subjectivity in Western philosophy: from Protagoras and the sophists to Descartes' metaphysics and the antimetaphysical form of philosophizing in postmodernism. The author puts forward the thesis that philosophy can be successfully integrated into modern additional adult education. At the same time, it is possible to use the potential of both academic and practical philosophy, as well as philosophy as the art of life. The expansion of scientific discourse on the problem of subjectivity in psychological research actualizes the theory, ontology, epistemology and epistemological independence, which are of primary importance for the self-determination of an adult, his values and meanings.

Objetivo: Analisar as limitações das abordagens cirúrgicas no tratamento de astrocitomas e oligodendrogliomas, com base nos avanços na compreensão molecular desses tumores e nas inovações tecnológicas em neurocirurgia. Métodos: Foi realizada uma revisão integrativa. A busca foi feita na base PubMed Central (PMC) e após a aplicação dos critérios de inclusão e exclusão, 12 artigos foram selecionados. Resultados: Os estudos revelam que a ressecção cirúrgica é a principal abordagem terapêutica para esses tumores, embora a remoção completa seja limitada, especialmente quando localizados em áreas eloquentes do cérebro. Avanços, como a neuronavegação e o monitoramento intraoperatório, têm melhorado a precisão das ressecções, mas a recorrência tumoral, principalmente em gliomas de alto grau, continua sendo um grande desafio. O uso de terapias adjuvantes, incluindo radioterapia e quimioterapia personalizadas, mostra-se fundamental para melhorar a sobrevida dos pacientes. Considerações finais: A natureza infiltrativa dos tumores e os riscos associados às cirurgias em áreas funcionais do cérebro destacam a necessidade de equilibrar a extensão da ressecção com a preservação da funcionalidade cerebral. Novas abordagens, como a terapia térmica intersticial a laser (LITT) e o uso de tecnologias intraoperatórias avançadas, devem ser foco de futuras pesquisas.

Objetivo: Avaliar o papel regulador da alimentação com restrição de tempo sobre o metabolismo em adultos com sobrepeso e obesidade, explorando os mecanismos subjacentes e os impactos clínicos nos parâmetros de saúde metabólica. Métodos: Revisão bibliográfica integrativa, que utilizou a base de dados eletrônica PubMed Central (PMC). Os termos de pesquisa incluíram “Time-Restricted Eating”, “TRE”, “Obesity”, “Metabolic Health”, e suas combinações. Um total de 14 artigos foram selecionados para análise detalhada. Resultados:  A ART pode contribuir para a melhoria da homeostase glicêmica, aumento da sensibilidade à insulina e redução de marcadores inflamatórios. Além disso, a combinação da ART com exercícios físicos potencializa ainda mais os resultados na saúde metabólica. Apesar dos resultados promissores, algumas pesquisas indicam que a ART, isoladamente, pode não ser mais eficaz do que uma dieta regular na perda de peso. Considerações finais: A alimentação com restrição de tempo surge como uma estratégia promissora, demonstrando benefícios na regulação metabólica e na promoção da saúde em indivíduos com sobrepeso e obesidade. No entanto, é crucial reconhecer a complexidade do tema e a necessidade de mais pesquisas para explorar a eficácia da ART em diferentes populações e contextos.

The protective efficacy of helmets may be misconstrued due to shortcomings in crash data collection systems. This paper aims to decipher the reasons behind the “helmet protection paradox,” using Bengaluru, India, as a case study. Official reports indicated that three-fourths of fatal two-wheeler crashes in Bengaluru city involved riders who were wearing helmets, leading to a paradoxical interpretation of the protective efficacy of helmets. Understanding helmet use patterns in the source population and crash data systems is key to resolving this paradox. Our findings suggest that the paradox arises from a combination of a high prevalence of non-standard helmet use in Bengaluru and shortcomings in recording the “type of helmet use” in data systems. It is recommended that existing crash and fatality data systems capture information regarding the “type of helmet use” to prevent erroneous interpretations of the protective efficacy of helmets.

Abstract. Bullying and violence are two problems that children often face in school environments. The impact of this behavior can threaten children's psyche and make them reluctant to go to school. This community service aims to provide education to elementary school students in Madiun City through an anti-violence and anti-bullying counseling process. The implementation method is carried out by means of lectures, interactive video screenings, singing activities, and Q&A. The results of the activity showed that all students actively participated in this activity and the findings showed that there were still students who were perpetrators or victims of bullying and minor violence. The bullying that occurred was identical to mocking parents' names while minor violence occurred between male students. After the counseling was carried out, in the question and answer session, students had the desire to change and avoid this behavior. This is indicated by the average accuracy of the number of students who have understood anti-violence and bullying after the counseling was carried out, namely with an average value of 235.75 or 93.5%. The counseling activities carried out are a form of cooperation between universities and schools to prevent violence and bullying in children. Through this process, a new, creative, and innovative learning process occurs in preventing violence and bullying.
 
Abstrak. Perundungan (bullying) dan kekerasan adalah dua hal masalah anak yang saat ini masih sering terjadi di lingkungan sekolah. Dampak perilaku tersebut dapat mengancam psikis anak dan enggan memiliki minat bersekolah.

In the field of criminal psychology, artificial intelligence (AI) has the potential to have a significant impact on effective technology development and application for crime response by providing and analyzing information based on extensive data for improving crime prevention, investigation, and offender rehabilitation programs. This study examined the use of AI in the field of criminal psychology, analyzed the risk factors of AI, and discussed its implications. This study was conducted using a literature review method that analyzed related academic research results, and research reports, and recent press articles. The results of the study confirmed that the risk factors of AI in the field of criminal psychology include: 1) prejudice and discrimination (bias of AI algorithms), 2) lack of transparency and accuracy (black box effect), 3) ethical concerns, 4) excessive reliance on AI, 5) data privacy and security violations, 6) unclear responsibility and accountability for incorrect judgments, 7) imperfection of human psychological assessment, 8) manipulation and misuse of AI systems, and 9) loss of human elements in criminal justice. As an implication of this, it was pointed out that AI-based predictive systems used to profile or predict criminal behavior may be inherently flawed or overly deterministic. In addition, ethical issues arise, such as the bias of AI algorithms, privacy rights, and the possibility of misuse in predictive policing. Therefore, the fairness and transparency of the operation of AI systems must be guaranteed. In order to secure the fairness of the operation of AI systems, strict supervision, continuous evaluation, and participation of experts are required to eliminate bias, enhance ethics, and secure transparency. Criminal justice policymakers, criminal psychologists/police science scholars, and scientists need to build a systematic system to balance human judgment, responsibility, and ethical standards for the use of AI technology in the field of criminal psychology. Finally, the academic and policy implications of this study were discussed along with its limitations.
