The purpose of the article is to substantiate the relevance of forming an effective partnership between business and public organizations to ensure sustainable development, using the concept of social responsibility (CSR) as a key competence. The competencies of modern companies allow shaping the strategic development of an enterprise as an open system, taking into account the impact of environmental, social and economic factors in compliance with the concept of social responsibility, which positively affects consumer loyalty, corporate reputation, satisfaction and trust of business partners, ensures the implementation of a sustainable development strategy. The study used general scientific and special methods of system-structural analysis and synthesis to determine the relationship between sustainable development, sustainable development strategy, social responsibility and CSR; method of comparison – to determine the motives of business in CSR and the factors that contribute to the attractiveness of public organizations (POs) in relation to business expectations; and systematization method – to determine the benefits that business receives from cooperation with POs. Based on the results of the literature review, the author distinguishes the levels of social responsibility (personal, enterprise, public, national, global); goals and objectives of corporate social responsibility and its relationship with the sustainable development strategy. It is found that the highest level of CSR is charitable activity. The research has shown the feasibility and necessity of partnership between business and public organizations. When selecting partners for cooperation in the implementation of socially important initiatives, it is advisable to rely on the research of the ESG transparency index of Ukrainian companies and choose partners with a higher level of information disclosure according to the criteria of «CSR Policy» and «Integration of Sustainable Development Goals into the CSR strategy/company goals (commitments)». Partnership cooperation between business and public organizations helps to speed up the decision-making process and gives more confidence that their support will be used properly. Prospects for further research include assessing the effectiveness of the implementation of the enterprise’s CSR strategy and adapting the use of ecological, social and governance (ESG) sustainability assessment indicators to the conditions of Ukraine.

The article identifies problems and prospects of institutional provision for anti-crisis regulation of economic security of Ukraine. It is noted that the current level of economic security of Ukraine, complicated by the wartime, requires new approaches to institutional provision in terms of crisis management and regulation capable of solving the issue of reducing the level of corruption and shadowing the economy, which will significantly affect the implementation of our country’s intention to become a member of the European Union. It is noted that institutional provision for anti-crisis regulation of economic security of the country is considered as a complex and integrated system of socioeconomic development and provides for the implementation of appropriate measures (organizational, economic, technological, preventive, controlling, and protective), which are taken to neutralize the negative impact on the economic security of the State. It is determined that one of the main conditions for building an effective system of institutional provision for anti-crisis regulation of economic security of the country is the introduction of regular monitoring of the implementation of previously adopted decisions, formation of a dynamic information structure of institutional regulation of the national economy and elimination of existing administrative barriers and restrictions. It is concluded that one of the important conditions for the formation of an efficient system of institutional provision for anti-crisis regulation of economic security of Ukraine is the use of modern management technologies in combination with the development of the institutional environment, which covers a set of important institutions, formal and informal institutions and institutional changes aimed at improving the qualitative characteristics of formal and informal institutions that already exist in the field of anti-crisis regulation of economic security. A system of institutional provision for anti-crisis regulation of economic security of the country has been proposed, which provides for the complexity of solving problems at all levels of management, optimization of anti-crisis measures and equalization of conditions for economic management and human life, which, in turn, will allow solving the issue of creating conditions for development of both business and social sphere.

The article is aimed at studying the scientific issues related to the acceleration of economic develop-ment of the spatial economy; determining the degree of influence of innovations on the nature of the territorial organization of economic activity; provision of a theoretical basis for the formation of zones of innovative growth of individual territories (regions). The main goal is to identify the features and contradictions of the current state of the system of territorial organization of marketing activities and to accelerate the pace of socioeconomic development of a particular territory on this basis. The carried out systematization of literature sources on the subject of the study shows that modern economic science pays insufficient attention to the studies on the nature and impact of the marketing component, in its broadest sense, both on the quality of the system of territorial organization itself and on the dy-namics of economic development. This is directly the reason for its unconditional relevance. The issues of spreading the diffusion of the marketing component of spatial development was studied from the viewpoint of presenting and positioning a separate territory (region) as a subject of economic relations, as a multifunctional and multi-aspectual economic system, and not as a place of concentration of means of production and labor strictly. The further development, symbiosis of the theory of regionalistics, in particular the spatial organization of production, with the theory and practice of innovative en-trepreneurship is the substantiation of the feasibility of creating and spreading territorial poles of inno-vative growth. It is proved that effective marketing activity in a particular economic space of activity should be based on the functional properties of the forms of spatial organization of production, on the one hand, and the location of productive forces, on the other. The article reflects the authors’ vision of the modern conception of marketing of territorial market systems in relation to their spatial organiza-tion. The advantages of the network model of organization (clustering) of the territorial (regional) eco-nomic system are revealed. The theory of clustering as one of the modern forms of organization of economic activity in terms of a certain territory has been further developed.

The article studies the actual scientific and practical issue of the impact of digital transformations on the results of economic activity of the business sector as the main driving force of the national economy. The importance of digitalization and the need to understand its multi-aspectuality and peculiarities of the course in socioeconomic systems of different levels are emphasized. Since the process of digital transformation goes beyond the boundaries of individual economic entities and sectors of the national economy, it is concluded that a full and in-depth analysis of the impact of factors of digital transformations on the development of the business sector should be carried out covering the changes that occur at the micro, meso and macro levels. A conceptual-methodical approach to analyzing the results of digital transformation in the economy with an emphasis on the entrepreneurial sector has been proposed. The approach includes the use of a system of indicators to conduct a comprehensive assessment of the progress of digital transformation at each of the above levels. At the micro level, the state of digitalization of the internal environment of economic entities is studied. At the meso level, digital transformations within industry and cross-sectoral interaction are monitored. At the macro level, national processes in the business sector are studied under the influence of the implementation of the State digital strategy and policy. The important role of the State in promoting digital innovations and stimulating the development of new technologies in favor of the national economy is underlined. It is noted that the implementation of the proposed approach requires the creation of a certain information, analytical, and organizational support.
The Imperatives of a Theoretical Study on the Investment Climate of the National Economy
Authors:   Drohobych Ivan Franko State Pedagogical University, Yachymets Yuriy М.
Published: May 2023

The article analyzes the investment climate as a system of factors that determine the business attractiveness of a particular country or territory, since the calculation of possible risks and expected profitability of an investment object is impossible without taking into account the peculiarities of the investment climate. It is noted that the study of the investment climate is always of interest, because, firstly, it provides a systematic comprehension of the factors influencing the investor; secondly, it creates an opportunity to better estimate the situation in the country or in a particular region; and finally, it allows you to realize the motivation of the partner’s behavior. The author presents a system of economic relations arising in the process of formation of the investment climate, which can generally be considered as investment relations between: 1) the State and business; 2) business and population; 3) population and the State; 4) the State and financial intermediaries; 5) business and financial intermediaries; 6) the population and financial intermediaries; 7) the system of data of economic relations and the general economic situation. It is emphasized that the investment climate is formed primarily by macroeconomic conditions of reproduction, which affect the economic interest of the investor, turning them into incentives. Also, the investment process is based on achieving a certain level of production efficiency, which provides an opportunity to finance its renewal or expansion. It is justified that the investment climate directly stimulates the development of the national economy, which provides for the creation of a consistently favorable investment environment, reducing inflation, supporting the private sector, effective social policy, ensuring legal protection of investors and accumulation of financial resources for their further development.

It is found that a necessary condition for preventing the manifestations of excessive recreational load on forest biogeocenoses is the formation of an institutional environment for the development of mechanisms for the ecological and economic support of the introduction of forest recreational infrastructure. It is substantiated that the institutional environment of recreational forest use is a complex of institutions-regulations and institutions-organizations that ensure the economic development of the recreational potential of forests and its further commercialization through various forms of market commodity-money relations. It is identified that the complex of modern institutions-regulations of recreational forest use should be aimed at forming in forest users such worldview orientations that will provide for more efficient use of forest ecosystem services instead of priority development of the most liquid wood component of the forest fund. It is proved that an important component of the institutional environment for the functioning of forest recreational infrastructure is the formation of a set of institutions-organizations that will provide assistance in promoting recreational forestry products to the market of recreational services, in particular, provide consulting services on the specification of forestry activities related to the organization of tourism and recreational activities in the territory of forest biogeocenoses. It i determined that the mechanisms of ecological and economic support for the introduction of forest recreational infrastructure facilities are the following: mechanism for ecological and forestry regulation of recreational load on forest biogeocenoses; mechanism for financial and economic support for the development of forest recreational infrastructure; mechanism for economic stimulation of recreational development of the resource potential of forests. It is substantiated that the specification of mechanisms for environmental and economic support for the introduction of recreational infrastructure facilities should be focused on maximizing the integrated efficiency of recreational forest use, taking into account the requirements of deepening decentralization of power and martial law.

Published: May 2023

Logistics in tourism is one of the most important components of the tourism industry, ensuring the efficient organization and coordination of tourism services. Recently, with the development of technology and changes in demand, the importance of improving logistics processes in tourism has been growing. The purpose of the study is to identify the challenges and prospects for the development of logistics in tourism in the modern world. The methodological basis of the study was the analysis of scientific literature, statistical data and own experience in the field of tourism and logistics. To achieve the goal of the study, the challenges and prospects for the development of logistics in tourism were analyzed based on the study of literature and statistics for recent years. The results of the study showed that tourism logistics faces significant challenges in the modern world. One of the most important is the rapid change in the needs and requirements of tourists, which requires equally rapid adaptation and improvement of logistics processes. Another important challenge is the growing competition and the increasing number of players in the tourism market, which requires reducing logistics costs and increasing the efficiency of logistics processes. This is one of the prospects for further development of the industry – with the development of technology and the use of innovative solutions, it is possible to reduce the cost of logistics services and improve their quality. In addition, with the proliferation of electronic platforms and the growing number of tourists using online services to book and purchase services, there is a need to develop electronic logistics in tourism. This involves the automation of business processes, which reduces the risk of human error and increases the efficiency of interaction between participants in the supply chain. The novelty of the study lies in the fact that the work is devoted to a topical issue that is rather poorly studied in Ukrainian science. The author analyzes the current state of logistics in tourism and describes the challenges facing this industry due to the growth of tourist traffic and the development of technology. It is justified that logistics is extremely important for the development of tourism, as it ensures the efficient organization and coordination of tourism services. However, at the same time, there is a growing number of challenges associated with the growth of tourism intensity and the increase in tourist flows, the development of technology and the competitive environment.

It is determined that the conception of global economic security covers a wide range of interrelated issues and elements, such as investment verification, instruments to counteract coercion, research integrity, and stability of supply chains. When focusing on supply chain stability, three main issues should be considered. It is found that the regimes of national economic security require a balance between defensive and offensive policies depending on the specific conditions of the country. The main factors in developing strategies are national security interests and competitive advantages in certain sectors of the trade. Transparency and information exchange between countries is the first step towards meaningful international cooperation on economic security issues. This is crucial to avoid creating protectionist economic weapons that countries can use against rivals. It is defined that in a rapidly changing world, the issue of global economic security becomes the most open and at the same time of responsibility in case of calling and responding to problems caused by various factors of society life as a subject of international economic relations, developing effective mechanisms for dealing with challenges in the sectoral economic parts of the institution of economy.

Authors: Oniovosa Ososuakpor Jonathan , Godsday Okoro Edesiri
Published: May 2023

The study investigated the relationship between enterprise risk management and the firm value of quoted banks in Sub-Saharan Africa using an ex-post facto research design. A sample of twenty-seven (27) commercial banks was obtained from three (3) regions of Sub-Saharan Africa (Nigeria, South Africa, and Kenya). The dependent variable is the firm value (Tobin’s Q), while the independent variable is enterprise risk management (measured using enterprise risk management size, independence, and disclosures). Secondary data were obtained from the annual reports and accounts of the sampled banks in Sub-Saharan Africa from 2012-2021. Data obtained were analyzed using descriptive statistics (mean, median, standard deviation, kurtosis, skewness, and Pearson correlation), diagnostic statistics (variance inflation factor, heteroscedasticity, Ramsey regression specification-error test, Cameron and Trivedi’s decomposition of IM-test,) and inferential statistics (principal component analysis, fixed and random effects panel data regression). The fixed and random effects panel data regression results indicated that while enterprise risk management independence (t= 4.63; prob. = 0.000) and enterprise risk management disclosure (t= 2.68; prob. = 0.008) positively and significantly affect firm value, enterprise risk management size (t=-0.04; prob. = 0.967) insignificantly and negatively affects firm value in Sub-Saharan Africa. Among other recommendations, it was suggested that banks need to promote ERM practices as well as ensure risk compliance among banks in Sub-Saharan Africa. Additionally, banks should increase their level of independence of the risk committee while at the same time increasing their level of enterprise risk management practices in the region.

AN ALGEBRAIC THINKING SKILL TEST IN PROBLEM-SOLVING FOR SEVENTH GRADERS
Authors: Jahudin Janet , Siew Nyet Moi
Published: May 2023

Diagnostic tests have been developed previously to measure algebraic thinking skills; however, the tests do not specifically address algebraic problem-solving. Thus, an Algebraic Thinking Test (ATT) Instrument was developed to measure algebraic thinking skills in problem-solving involving linear equations. ATT comprises nine open-ended questions with three algebraic thinking constructs: Generalized Arithmetic, Functions and Modeling. Generalized arithmetic involves students in efficient calculation and generalization; functional involves identifying number patterns, while modelling involves solving open-ended problems, identifying similarities, and performing calculations involving variables. This study is meant to determine the quality of ATT instruments through the validity and reliability analysis using the Rasch Measurement Model. The sample consisted of 120 seventh graders aged 12 to 13, selected from two secondary schools in the Tuaran district, Malaysia. The instrument was found to have a strong dimensionality and high construct validity. The reliability of Cronbach Alpha (KR-20) demonstrated a value of .90 (very high), and item and respondent reliability of .98 (excellent) and .86 (good), respectively, with an item separation index of 6.29 and 2.45 for the person separation index. ATT has good validity and high reliability in measuring algebraic thinking skills among seventh graders in secondary schools.

Published: May 2023

This article examines the potential benefits of combining Learning by Doing and Learning for Understanding approaches in Ecuadorian classrooms. Learning by Doing emphasizes hands-on, experiential learning while Learning for Understanding focuses on deepening students' understanding of concepts through inquiry and reflection. By combining these approaches, students can gain practical skills and a deeper understanding of the subject matter. This article draws on existing research on Learning by Doing and Learning for Understanding to explore how these approaches can be integrated into Ecuadorian classrooms. The article describes a study that investigates implementing these approaches in an Ecuadorian high school, using a combination of pre and post-tests and interviews with students and teachers. The study results suggest that combining Learning by Doing and Learning for Understanding can improve student engagement and achievement and more positive teacher attitudes toward teaching. The article concludes by discussing the implications of these findings for implementing these approaches in Ecuadorian classrooms and highlighting areas for future research. Overall, this article argues that combining Learning by Doing and Learning for Understanding can offer a powerful educational approach that can benefit both students and teachers in Ecuadorian classrooms and highlights areas for future research.
Neuroimaging of Germinal Matrix and Intraventricular Hemorrhage in Premature Infants
Authors: You Sun Kyoung
Published: May 2023

Germinal matrix and intraventricular hemorrhage (GM-IVH) are the major causes of intracranial hemorrhage in premature infants. Cranial ultrasound (cUS) is the imaging modality of choice for diagnosing and classifying GM-IVH. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), usually performed at term-equivalent age, is more sensitive than cUS in identifying hemorrhage in the brain. Post-hemorrhagic ventricular dilatation is a significant complication of GM-IVH and correlates with adverse neurodevelopmental outcomes. In this review, we discuss the various imaging findings of GM-IVH in premature infants, focusing on the role of cUS and MRI.
