It is exceedingly difficult to obtain mathematically accurate analytical solutions of heat conduction problems with a variable initial condition. Known solutions of these problems are expressed by cumbersome functional series that converge poorly in the range of small values of time and space variables. Thus, to obtain simpler and more effective solutions of these problems is an urgent issue. The authors have used an additional required function and additional boundary conditions to obtain solutions of the problem. Application of the additional required function allows us to reduce the original partial differential equation to the integration of an ordinary differential equation. Additional boundary conditions are in such a form that their fulfillment using the resulting solution is equivalent to the fulfillment of the equation at the boundary points. The authors have developed a technique to obtain an analytical solution of the heat conduction problem under a linear change of the initial condition, based on an additional required function and additional boundary conditions. Solution of an ordinary differential equation with respect to the additional required function determines the eigenvalues. In classical methods these eigenvalues are found in the solution of the Sturm–Liouville boundary value problem. The authors have proposed another, simpler solution to determine eigenvalues. An accurate analytical solution of the heat conduction problem for an unbounded plate with a coordinate-variable initial condition is obtained. The scientific and practical value of the proposed analytical solution is the development of an innovative approach to determine eigenvalues, as well as elimination of complex integrals when we solve the equation and initial conditions of the boundary value problem. It makes possible to simplify the use of the solution obtained in engineering applications.
The First Edition of “The Justification of Good” (1897): Contemporaries’ Response. Part 4
Authors:   M.V. Lomonosov Moscow State University, Mezhuev B.V.
Published: December 2023

The article continues the systematic review and analysis of newspaper and magazine responses to the first edition of the main work of V. Solovyov on moral philosophy “Justification of Good” (1897). The fourth part of this series of articles examines critical attacks on this book by representatives of the left, presumably Populist camp of the Russian press and public thought. It describes in detail critical responses of such authors as the regular columnist of the newspaper “Novosti”, literary critic Evgeny A. Solovyov, an anonymous review published in the journal “Russian Thought”, the reviews by the positivist philosopher Pavel V. Mokievsky in “Russkoe bogatstvo” and by the religious idealist Akim L. Volynsky in the “Severnyi vestnik”. It is noted that the main tone of criticism from the left was the assertion that the philosopher took the position of a conformist acceptance of the state and the church in their existing forms. Based on the consideration of all the above responses, the article concludes that none of the aforementioned critics tried to understand the essence of V. Solovyov's views. For most of the left-wing critics, any correlation of philosophy with religion, at least in its traditional forms, was unacceptable. It is argued that certain objections of V. Solovyov's critics on the left against his concept of moral philosophy were not without persuasiveness, which the philosopher had to take into account in the second edition of his work.
TECHNOLOGY-BASED SELF-REGULATED LEARNING STRATEGIES AND ENGLISH SELF-EFFICACY IN ONLINE LEARNING ENVIRONMENTS
Authors: KARAN AYNAGOZ Esra , UNAL Burcu
Published: December 2023

Technology-enhanced learning environments (TELEs) have provided language learners with various opportunities to promote their self-sufficient learning outside the classroom lately. Thus, language learners are no longer passive recipients of language; in contrast, they are autonomous learners who apply self-regulated learning strategies through the medium of technology during their English learning process, which in turn can be associated with their English self-efficacy perceptions. Therefore, the current study aimed to present an investigation into the relationship between preparatory school students’ use of technology-based self-regulated English learning strategies and their perceived English self-efficacy as well as the predictability of employing the strategies on their self-efficacy beliefs. Applying a quantitative research design, the data were collected through the Technology-based Self-Regulated English Learning Strategies Questionnaire (TSRLSQ) developed by An et al. (2020) and the Questionnaire of English Self-Efficacy (QESE) developed by Wang (2004). A statistically significant positive relationship was found between students' use of technology-assisted English learning strategies and their perceived English self-efficacy beliefs. In addition, regression analysis results showed that goal setting and learner evaluation, motivational regulation, and technology-based song-movie learning strategies were strong predictors explaining the change in students’ self-efficacy in four language skills.

Authors:   Nizhyn Mykola Gogol State University, Nizhyn, Ukraine, Filonenko Yurii M.
Published: December 2023

During 2015-2020, we conducted field studies of phytogenic relief in the Oster river floodplain. In the process, the method of field route observations, polls, photography, morphological and mophometric analyses were actively used. Mathematical methods and computer technologies were used to process and summarize the obtained data. Based on the processing of literary and cartographic sources, Internet sources and field research data, it is established that the natural conditions and vegetation features of the Oster river floodplain are favourable for the emergence of numerous relief forms of phytogenic origin. During field and in-house research we studied the causes and identified the peculiarities of appearance of the most common here accumulative and denudation phytogenic landforms. In particular, we analyzed tussocks and their clusters on the surface of swamps and wetlands; humps formed by large trees with roots blown over by the wind (“earth walls”) and microchains formed by tree trunks, trunk humps and trunk depressions; soil mounds, holes formed by large trees with roots blown over by the wind as well as passages of roots and rhizomes. It is found that the accumulative relief forms of phytogenic origin in the floodplain of the Oster river significantly outnumber the denudation ones. In addition, in the Oster floodplain, as in most forests of Chernihiv region, the number of “earth walls” and holes formed by large trees with roots blown over by the wind significantly exceeds the number of chains. This is due to the fact that after strong winds the trunks of fallen trees in most cases are sawn and removed but the fallen root part remains. It is established that the term of existence of phytogenic forms of relief varies from several hundreds or tens of years to several years. Their highest density is observed within swamps, wetlands, forests and meadows. By size, phytogenic landforms mostly have the rank of nanorelief. Microforms of phytogenic relief are much less common. It is found that the phytogenic landforms of the investigated area undergo a significant transformation due to fires. Numerous depressions (“burns”) appear within the drained swamps and wetlands under the action of flames.

Published: December 2023

Chernihiv region contains a unique historical and cultural heritage, is characterized by unique natural and therapeutic and recreational resources, which opens up potential opportunities for the development of various types of tourism. In modern conditions, one of the most promising areas is nature tourism, which can be the basis for the formation of the tourism industry of a particular region, to promote the creation of a quality tourism product – both independent and complementary to all other types of tourism. The tourism industry is a powerful tool for regional development, but today these opportunities are not fully realized. The article presents the author’s development of a network of nature routes within the Chernihiv region as a basis for the development of the tourism industry and highlights its own concept of the project of regional tourism development. It is proved that the development of nature routes, the formation of tours and various excursion programs, the provision of basic and additional services constitute the technology of tourist services, i.e. the creation of a quality tourist product. The developed routes have clear signs of tourist attractions, their content plays an important role in making the tour attractive, in satisfying the individual wishes and interests of tourists. The presented materials have, despite their regional novelty, not only scientific and cognitive value, but can be used by local communities to develop the tourism industry and create a tourism industry in local development projects that will contribute to the development of tourism in general and sustainable development. Systematized information can be used as additional material in the detailed study of the tourist sphere of Chernihiv region, as well as a reference for potential tourists.
KÜLTÜR İNŞASINDA MEKÂN OLARAK MODERNİST OKUL TARZINA YÖNELİK BİR ELEŞTİRİ
Authors: Tösten Rasim , Tayanç Mehmet
Published: December 2023

İnsan ile mekân arasında her daim karşılıklı bir ilişki var olmuştur. İnsanoğlu bir yandan farklı mekânlar üretirken bir yandan da ürettiği bu mekânlar aracılığıyla kendini inşa etmiştir. Kimliğini, kültürünü, yaşam biçimi inşa ettiği mekânlar üzerinden açıklamış ve sergilemiştir. Hem mekâna hem de sahip olduğu değerlere anlam yüklemiştir. Bu tarihsel süreç içerisinde farklı anlamlar kazanan mekân kavramı, ilk etapta belli ihtiyaçlar doğrultusunda kullanılırken modernleşme ile birlikte yeni formlar kazanarak gelenek icat etme nesnesine dönüşmüştür. Post-modern dönemde ise mekânın sahip olduğu bu anlam şekil değiştirmiş ve modern mekan, toplumu açıklama noktasında yetersiz kalmıştır. Bu da mekân üzerindeki tartışmaları yeniden hızlandırmıştır. Okul mekanı özelinde hazırlanan bu çalışma, kültür inşasında mekanın kullanımı üzerinde yürütülmüştür. Özellikle bir kültür inşa etme ya da var olan kültürü sürdürme noktasında okul mekânının işlevini tartışmaya açmış, okul kültürünün korunmasında mekânın önemine yer vermiştir. Okulların kültür inşasında önemli bir rolünün olduğu, hali hazırda kullanılan binaların ise modernist çizginin dışına çıkamadığı ve postmodern paradigmalar bağlamında mekânın yeniden ele alınması gerektiği tartışmaya açılmıştır. Ayrıca Türkiye’de son dönem inşa edilen okulların, post-modern dönemde yüklenen anlamı ne şekilde temsil ettikleri üzerinde durulmuştur. Tüm bunlardan yola çıkarak fiziki bir mekân olan okulların yeni dönemde nasıl inşa edilmesi gerektiğine dair çözüm önerileri sunulmuş ve verilen örneklerle bu öneriler desteklenmiştir.
Authenticity and Mental Toughness in Athletes: An Empirical Model
Authors: Bochaver K.A. , Reznichenko S.I. , Bondarev D.V.
Published: December 2023

The study explores the role of personal authenticity in the psychological training of athletes, focusing on its relationship with intrinsic motivation, mental skills — including stress resilience — and mental toughness. Drawing on data from 355 male athletes (18-26 years) across various sports, standardized tools like the Moscow Authenticity Scale, Mental Strength Scale, Sports Motivation Scale, Ottawa Mental Skills Test, and Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale were employed. Path regression analysis revealed an empirical model that showcases how authenticity linked directly and indirectly to mental toughness through fostering intrinsic motives like self-development, enjoyment of sports, and resilience against stress. While direct contributions of authenticity to mental toughness are modest, its cumulative impact, factoring in mediating effects, is substantial. Notably, authenticity holds more weight for less experienced athletes in developing mental skills and toughness. These findings offer valuable insights for psychologists focused on the psychological training of athletes, especially in managing mental processes crucial for sport performance.

Published: December 2023

Studying the contact angle of water droplets on the surfaces of thin films formed by organic compounds allows to establish hydrophilic/hydrophobic properties of the films. Knowledge of hydrophilicity/hydrophobicity makes it possible to optimize the composition and increase the adhesive properties of films, improving their functionality. In this study, the dependence of the contact angle of Langmuir-Schaefer films (LS-films) of three compounds: 5,10,15,20-tetraphenylporphyrin (I), 2-aza-21-carba-5,10,15,20-tetraphenyl-porphyrin (II), and 5,15-bis(2,6-bis(dodecycloxy)phenyl)porphyrin (III) was examined. Contact angle data were obtained for LS-films with different transfer numbers of floating layers of the studied porphyrins and different surface roughness. It was found that LS-films of compounds I and II are hydrophobic and their hydrophobicity increases with an increasing of transfer number. In addition, an increase in the surface roughness of the LS film of compound I compared to compound II reduces the value of the contact angle. Unlike porphyrins I and II, LS-films of compound III displayed hydrophilic properties. The obtained data can be used for the targeted design of compounds to create thin film materials of various purposes.
IMPROVING THE SOCIO-ECONOMIC POLICY IN RUSSIA IN THE FIELD OF EDUCATION TAKING INTO ACCOUNT REGIONAL DISPARTIES
Authors: Агусев В.А.
Published: December 2023

В статье рассматривается проблема роста доли бедных слоев населения в России. Текущая социальная политика не способствует решению многих проблем. Опросы россиян и исследования ученых показывают, что один из основных социальных лифтов – высшее образование – становится менее доступным. Государство разработало программу льготного кредитования для оплаты обучения. Однако более трети опрошенных россиян говорят при этом, что относятся к кредитам плохо и никогда его брать не будут. Поэтому предлагается частично перераспределить бюджет, направленный на субсидирование кредитов на образование, на целевое обучение населения для нужд федеральных, региональных и местных органов власти. Также органам власти необходимо осуществлять сотрудничество с образовательными учреждениями, бизнесом и обучающимися студентами в целях модернизации учебного процесса и повышения качества образования. В дополнение к данным мерам следует на основе систематического подхода создавать и реорганизовывать профориентационные центры в регионах на основе лучших мировых и отечественных практик и рекламировать их населению.

The article addresses the problem of the growth of the poor segments of population in Russia. Th e current social policy does not contribute to solving urgents problems in the social and economic sphere. Surveys of Russians and research by scientists show that higher education as one of the main social lift s is becoming less accessible. The state has developed a program of concessional loans for education. However, more than a third of Russians say that they treat loans badly and will never take them. Therefore, it is proposed to partially redistribute the budget aimed at subsidizing loans, for targeted training of the population for the needs of federal, regional and local authorities. Also, the authorities need to cooperate with business and students in order to modernize the educational process and improve the quality of education. In addition to these measures, it is necessary to create and reorganize career guidance centers in the regions based on the best world and domestic practices and promote them among the population.

POSSIBILITIES FOR USING MUNICIPAL PROPERTY MANAGEMENT METHODS FOR THE PURPOSES OF TERRITORIAL DEVELOPMENT
Authors: Кузяшев А.Н. , Догот М.С.
Published: December 2023

Несмотря на то что местные органы власти владеют значительной собственностью, они, как правило, менее всего управляют своими ресурсами. Недостаточное внимание к собственности как к стратегическому ресурсу связано с тем, что органы местного самоуправления в основном являются сторонниками пассивного подхода к управлению собственностью, стремясь сосредоточиться на предоставлении услуг, а не на вопросах использования методов управления муниципальными ресурсами. Такой подход характеризуется тенденцией к восприятию собственности в качестве «случайного ресурса». В статье рассматриваются возможные направления совершенствования системы управления муниципальной собственностью путем использования различных методов управления ими в соответствии с современными требованиями обеспечения эффективности данного процесса.

Although local governments own significant property, they tend to be the least in control of their resources. The lack of attention to property as a strategic resource is due to the fact that local governments are mostly the proponents of a passive approach to property management, tending to focus on the provision of services, and not on the use of municipal resource management methods. This approach is characterized by a tendency to perceive the property as a “random resource”. The article discusses possible improvements to the municipal property management system by applying various methods of managing them in accordance with the modern requirements to ensure the effectiveness of this process.
