Authors: Lee Daniel Y. , Harring Jeffrey R.
Published: February 2023

A Monte Carlo simulation was performed to compare methods for handling missing data in growth mixture models. The methods considered in the current study were (a) a fully Bayesian approach using a Gibbs sampler, (b) full information maximum likelihood using the expectation–maximization algorithm, (c) multiple imputation, (d) a two-stage multiple imputation method, and (e) listwise deletion. Of the five methods, it was found that the Bayesian approach and two-stage multiple imputation methods generally produce less biased parameter estimates compared to maximum likelihood or single imputation methods, although key differences were observed. Similarities and disparities among methods are highlighted and general recommendations articulated.

Differential expression of BACE1 in pancreatic cancer.
Authors: Mamoor Shahan
Published: February 2023

Cancer is a leading cause of death and pancreatic cancer is among the most lethal cancers (1, 2). We mined published and public microarray datasets (3, 4) to determine in an unbiased fashion and at the level of the transcriptome genes most differentially expressed in the primary tumors of patients with pancreatic cancer, pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PDAC). We found significant differential expression of the gene encoding beta-secretase 1, BACE1, when comparing pancreatic tumors to the tissue of origin, the pancreas. BACE1 mRNA was present at significantly lower quantities in tumors of the pancreas as compared to normal pancreatic tissue. Analysis of human survival data revealed that expression of BACE1 in pancreatic tumors was correlated with overall survival in patients with pancreatic adenocarcinoma. BACE1 expression changes may be important for the initiation or progression of human PDAC.

Adjaye-Gbewonyo et al. (2017) High Social Trust Associated with Increased Depressive Symptoms in a Longitudinal South African Sample through a mindsponge theory
Authors: Jin Ruining
Published: February 2023

Adjaye-Gbewonyo et al. (2017) concluded that while social trust resulted in positive outcomes such as increased self-efficacy and decreased negative emotions, it also caused negative feelings such as loneliness and depression, especially among those with higher levels of trust, as individuals who trust others in a low social trust context may be taken advantage of. This may increase their vulnerability to stressful life events such as victimization by crime or fraud, which eventually increased the risk of depression.

Positive Appraisal Style Theory of Resilience posits that a person’s general style of evaluating stressors plays a central role in mental health and resilience. Specifically, a tendency to appraise stressors positively (positive appraisal style; PAS) is theorized to be protective of mental health and thus a key resilience factor. To this date no measures of PAS exist. Here, we present two scales that measure perceived positive appraisal style, one focusing on cognitive processes that lead to positive appraisals in stressful situations (PASS-process), and the other focusing on the appraisal contents (PASS-content). For PASS-process, the items of the existing questionnaires Brief COPE and CERQ-short were analyzed in exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses (EFA, CFA) in independent samples (N=1157 and N=1704) . The resulting 10-item questionnaire showed was internally consistent (α = .78, 95% CI [.86, .87]) and showed good convergent and discriminant validity in comparisons with self-report measures of trait optimism, neuroticism, urgency, and spontaneity. For PASS-content, a newly generated item pool of 29 items across stressor appraisal content dimensions (probability, magnitude, and coping potential) were subjected to EFA and CFA in two independent samples (N=1174 and N=1611). The resulting 14-item scale showed good internal consistency (α = .87, 95% CI [.86, .87]), as well as good convergent and discriminant validity within the nomological network. The two scales are a new and reliable way to assess self-perceived positive appraisal style in large-scale studies, which could offer key insights into mechanisms of resilience.
Surprise-minimization as a solution to the structural credit assignment problem
Authors: Wurm Franz , Ernst Benjamin , Steinhauser Marco
Published: February 2023

In naturalistic environments, causal relationships between actions and their consequences are often hidden from direct observation. To overcome this structural credit-assignment problem, agents have to infer causal structures from experience. Here, we developed a computational model which formalizes action selection as the competition between structural representations, while action control is arbitrated towards the representation that minimizes surprise over time. To validate this model, we recorded behavioral and electrophysiological data from human participants in a novel task in which independent decisions are followed by outcomes, whereby the decision-outcome mapping is unknown. The model could account for patterns of choice behavior revealing clear hallmarks of credit assignment. Model-based analysis of EEG activity confirmed central model characteristics of concurrent prediction errors and a signature of evidence accumulation driving arbitration between representations. These findings highlight a key role of surprise minimization for both value and representation learning and reveal neural correlates of credit assignment.
Three propositions for realising collective value
Authors: Fussell Cathy
Published: February 2023

This paper addresses the problem that we lack clarity about what value and value creation look like which impedes its realisation. Three propositions to address this problem are offered, which are expanded upon in three subsequent working papers. The first proposition is that value is the expanded capacity to act (i.e. power) that we seek from all social investments. The second proposition differentiates collective value creation from value extraction. Power-with is where the value produced from social investments is shared (value sharing). Power-over is where value is hoarded (value extraction). The third proposition is that only a power-with (value sharing) leads to long-term collective virtuous cycles of value creation. Examples are provided of what this looks like in practice indicating the key features of a power-with. In contrast, value extraction risks and undermines value creation by eroding trust, reducing effective feedback, reducing collective members’ capacity to contribute, and can lead to passive withdrawal from value creation arrangements or their active resistance. The authority and legitimacy of society’s agents (e.g. elected officials, public administrators, corporate executives) rests on their facilitation of collective value creation and its dispersal, and on protecting the collective from value extraction.
The Absence of Communism in Soviet Economic Planning
Authors: McMullen David
Published: February 2023

This paper contends that the economic malaise in the Soviet Union was mainly due to the absence of communist relations of production rather than inherent flaws in central economic planning. This is confirmed by literature on the regime during its final decades which mostly dwelt on the behavioral failings of the three main layers of society. These layers were (1) the reactionary, oppressive and self-serving political leadership aided by an obliging bureaucracy, (2) a bonus-seeking management stratum and (3) a completely alienated, disengaged and non-revolutionary working class. The fact that the country arrived at such a sorry state is due in large part to its backward, pre-capitalist starting point. The challenge of overcoming problems such as these in the future, under more favorable revolutionary conditions, is also discussed.
Artificial Intelligence based Optimal Placement of Phasor Measurement Unit for Smart Grid
Authors: Poudel Sushmita , Adhikari Sujan
Published: February 2023

A Phasor Measurement Unit (PMU) device ensures the stability, reliability, and proper visibility of critical areas of the power grid by providing a synchro phasor measurement of both voltage and current in real-time. Since it is not practical to place them at each branch of the system, the main concern lies in achieving entire network observability either by direct or indirect measurement through an optimal set of PMUs placed at the optimal location. This gives rise to the Optimal PMU Placement Problem (OPP). In this paper, OPP is solved by an optimization technique i.e., a Genetic Algorithm. The constraints that can greatly affect obtaining optimal solutions are reviewed and the effect of including Zero Injection Bus (ZIB) on the proposed method in solving OPP is studied. The algorithm is applied to IEEE-14 and IEEE-30 bus test systems for validation purposes. Since optimal sets of solutions are obtained from the proposed method, the solutions are ranked by the system observability redundancy index to find the best one. Further, a comparative analysis of the result is done with the depth first search algorithm and other widely used algorithms.
The Interplay of Challenge-Hindrance-Appraisal and Self-Efficacy: Technostress and Remote Working Performance
Authors: Schoch Manfred
Published: February 2023

Measures to contain the COVID-19 pandemic have caused many employees to work from home; a novel situation in which individuals used information systems (IS) more intensively to stay in touch with coworkers. This novel IS use situation affected individuals differently and resulted in both positive and negative outcomes. Recent calls for research advocate for clarification regarding the conceptualisation of appraisal, which explains different individual responses to objectively equal environments. In particular, challenge-hindrance-research does not differentiate between primary and secondary appraisal. Therefore, it remains unclear how individual capability beliefs, such as self-efficacy, affect challenge and hindrance IS use appraisal. We conduct an empirical study with 1,553 German employees to investigate these relationships and the positive and negative outcomes during the COVID-19 pandemic. We find that challenge and hindrance IS use appraisal, and remote working self-efficacy are interconnected, yet different constructs. We find that self-efficacy is related to challenge IS use appraisal, rather than hindrance IS use appraisal. Further, challenge IS use appraisal is a driver for performance in a remote working environment. We conclude that there are stressful aspects of IS use that are not influenced by an individual’s belief in their abilities. Our study emphasises the importance of remote working self-efficacy and IS use appraisal to mitigate techno-distress and increase performance during remote work.
Hate Speech Patterns in Social Media: A Methodological Framework and Fat Stigma Investigation Incorporating Sentiment Analysis, Topic Modelling and Discourse Analysis
Authors: Wanniarachchi Vajisha Udayangi , Scogings Chris , Susnjak Teo , Mathrani Anuradha
Published: February 2023

Social media offers users an online platform to freely express themselves; however, when users post opinionated and offensive comments that target certain individuals or communities, this could instigate animosity towards them. Widespread condemnation of obesity (fatness) has led to much fat stigmatizing content being posted online. A methodological framework that uses a novel mixed-method approach for unearthing hate speech patterns from large text-based corpora gathered from social media is proposed. We explain the use of computer-mediated quantitative methods comprising natural language processing techniques such as sentiment analysis, emotion analysis and topic modelling, along with qualitative discourse analysis. Next, we have applied the framework to a corpus of texts on gendered and weight-based data that have been extracted from Twitter and Reddit. This assisted in the detection of different emotions being expressed, the composition of word frequency patterns and the broader fat-based themes underpinning the hateful content posted online. The framework has provided a synthesis of quantitative and qualitative methods that draw on social science and data mining techniques to build real-world knowledge in hate speech detection. Current information systems research is limited in its use of mixed analytic approaches for studying hate speech in social media. Our study therefore contributes to future research by establishing a roadmap for conducting mixed-method analyses for better comprehension and understanding of hate speech patterns.

EMPLOYEE MOTIVATION SYSTEM OF THE IT SPHERE ORGANIZATION
Authors: Yaniieva Daria
Published: February 2023

Modern managers strive to use the potential of organizational culture and motivational system in their activities in order to create efficient production, increase labor productivity and harmonize social and labor relations. The organization's culture is formed in the industrial and social environment under the influence of market requirements and in the direction of meeting the needs of customers and its own interests. It is impossible to create a successfully working organization if it is not adapted to changes in the environment. On the other hand, it is impossible to imagine an organization that does not have its own internal space, its principles and laws of interaction, its internal organizational climate and its approach to solving the problems of internal integration and cohesion. For the formation of organizational culture, it is not enough to simply write down the values, attitudes, and standards adopted for the enterprise. In order for these standards to be applied by employees in their practical activities, it is necessary to develop specific measures for employees of the organization that would motivate them to follow the developed system of corporate values. Almost all conscious behavior of people is motivated or determined by specific reasons. It is necessary to find out what motivates and what are the needs of employees in order to direct their behavior and motivate them to fulfill the assigned task. Organizational culture, as a tool of social influence on personnel, is interconnected with the motivation system, it is the main means of harmonizing the interests of employees and the organization as a whole. Any strong organization with a developed culture and as a motivation system for its survival and prosperity, it must be able to adapt to constantly changing environmental conditions, listen to the wishes of its employees, take into account which motivational factors encourage them to perform their duties, and which, on the contrary, demotivate them, because employees are the main resources of the organization in achieving goals. By forming a system of values in the personnel of the organization within the framework of the organizational culture, it is possible to predict, plan and stimulate the desired behavior.

Published: February 2023

Ensuring efficient operations is important for oil industry enterprises and plays a key role in the implementation of food strategies. It has been proven that the current state of war in Ukraine is characterized by the sharp decline of agribusiness and the food industry in most regions, the loss of positive trends and dynamics of the development of related industries, and the high risks of providing accompanying services. The development of oilseed production and processing in Ukraine creates competitive advantages in meeting demand on the foreign market and ensuring domestic needs. The purpose of the study was to analyze the current state and justify the priorities for the further development of enterprises for the production and processing of oilseed products based on the factors influencing its formation. It was found that the researched type of activity has prospects of high efficiency of enterprises, associated with the conditional zero-waste production and the possibility of expecting a favorable market situation under the existing conditions of storage of finished products of oil crops. Therefore, competitive advantages can be achieved through a certain multiplier effect in inter-industry connections and alternatives of economic behavior. The dynamics of the production indicators of the main types of oilseeds were revealed and trends were revealed. Based on the results of the analysis, the main priorities of oil industry producers for 2023 are justified. In this regard, the key factors that should be taken into account when determining the model of economic behavior of enterprises in this field in modern conditions were also investigated. It is proven that when defining this model of economic behavior, one should rely on global trends, internal and regional risks and drivers not only in this, but also in related industries.
ANALYSIS OF THE STATE OF CORPORATE CULTURE OF A MILK PROCESSING ENTERPRISE OF UKRAINE
Authors: Senyk Yurii
Published: February 2023

Despite the growing importance of corporate culture for the effective functioning of the enterprise and increasing its competitiveness on the economic market, today there is no established generalizing methodology that would allow obtaining reliable data when studying its formation and quickly diagnosing the current state. Also, no quantitative assessment of the effectiveness of its impact on the enterprise team has been developed, especially it is not possible to assess its direct role in changes in production processes. As a rule, the study and generalization of specific manifestations of corporate culture is a long and time-consuming process, which involves an abductive process of analysis, respectively, based on the terminal results of the impact of corporate culture on the company's staff.

The purpose of the article is to analyze the results of a study of the corporate culture of one of the milk processing enterprises of the western region of Ukraine using a questionnaire of its employees.

The article outlines a general approach to the analysis of the current state of the corporate culture of one of the dairy enterprises of Ukraine. The method of diagnosis using a questionnaire and statistical processing of the obtained data is shown.

According to the results of the questionnaire, it was established that employees believe that they form a certain corporate culture while working in the company, but they do not feel like participants in a big cause, do not fully imagine the company's mission. However, all employees answered that they like working in the company, and this is one of the main parameters of commitment and loyalty.

As for the weaknesses of the corporate culture, the following are highlighted: weak implementation of corporate style and low availability for employees of any corporate attributes. Strengths include her management style and low number of conflicts within the company. The direction to improve the corporate culture is the implementation of joint events for the exchange of experience among employees; improvement of the personal experience of employees thanks to the organization of trips for them to training courses.

Diagnostics of corporate culture allows to classify the level of labor relations that have developed in various structural units and in the organization as a whole. Understanding the field in which the organization operates, it is possible to develop a personnel management policy appropriate to its tasks in each structural division or to correct the corporate culture, which will increase the competitiveness of the enterprise.

Background: Vascular injuries after cardiac catheterization are well documented in adult population. The incidence of vascular injuries after pediatric cardiac catheterization is not as well defined. With the advent of therapeutic cardiac catheterization in pediatric patients, the incidence of vascular complications is likely to increase. Purpose: The aim of the study was to determine the incidence and management of vascular injuries associated with pediatric cardiac catheterization as an initial experience of in a newly established pediatric center. Methods: This retrospective and observational study was conducted on 268 children with congenital heart disease who have undergone cardiac catheterization either as diagnostic procedure or a therapeutic intervention between March 2018 and August 2019. Patient records were reviewed to obtain demographic, procedural, and treatment data. Patients were analyzed for the incidence and the type of vascular injury seen and treatment given for the same. The type of vascular injury was divided in to major and minor based on severity of the injury. Results: Diagnostic cardiac catheterization was performed in 77 patients and interventions in 191 patients. A total of 62 (23.1%) patients developed some vascular injury out of which 60 (22.3%) cases had minor complication and 2 (0.7%) had major a complication. The most common type of vascular complication seen in our study was transient loss of femoral pulse. Conclusions: Vascular injury is common in children undergoing cardiac catheterization, majority of which are minor complications and can be managed conservatively. They are seen more commonly during therapeutic cardiac catheterization. Further studies with larger sample size are needed to identify the risk factors for vascular injury.

After the end of the cold war international politics had moved from bi-polar to uni-polar resulting in instability. The United States of America to achieve her geo strategic interests took aggressive action which made other states insecure. We have witnessed a rise in the number of wars happened in the last decade of the 20th century and the first decade of the 21st century. The Middle East is still facing the aftershocks of Arab Spring and the Europe is still divided the way it was during the cold war. To counter the hegemonic designs of the United States of America and its allies Sino Russian cooperation has tried to balance the dynamics of International power power politics. This Sino Russian cooperation is based on an economic, strategic and political level. The very nature of this Sino Russian cooperation revolves around the integration of interests and inclusiveness of other likeminded states. In the second decade of the 21st Century this cooperation has evolved at the international level as an alternative to the Western political block led by the USA
DUAL TARGETING OF VEGFR-2 AND C-MET KINASES VIA THE DESIGN AND SYNTHESIS OF SUBSTITUTED BENZYLIDENE-6-(5-CHLOROPYRIMIDIN-2-YL)-9H-PURINE2,6-DIAMINE DERIVATIVES AS ANGIOGENESIS INHIBITORS

We have designed and synthesized a unique library of benzylidene-6-(5-chloropyrimidin-2-yl)-9H-purine-2,6- diamine derivatives as angiogenesis inhibitors. The designed scaffolds were subjected to docking and ADME prediction studies so as to guage the particular interaction. Further anti-proliferative activity was allotted by employing the SRB method as a target for colorectal cancer on HT-29 and COLO-205 cell lines. The SM-6 derivative showed good anticancer activity and was subjected to in-vitro enzyme inhibition activity using a flow cytometer to test the enzyme inhibition potential. It also induced apoptosis and cell cycle arrest at the G0/G1 phase on HT-29 cells supported by DAPI staining and propidium iodide (PI) staining followed by flow cytometry analyses. These compounds exhibited slight inhibitory effects against VEGFR and c-Met kinases, so their active skeletons warrant further study and will have a positive effect on the event of small anticancer inhibitors of dual-target VEGFR/c-Met kinase.

In this work, a unique calorimetric system was presented for the determination of horseradish peroxidase (HRP) and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). This HRP-catalyzed system is based on the formation of electrophilic 1,4 –diimine by the oxidation of Paraphenylenediamine (PPD), this intermediate undergoes coupling with the free para position of Alpha naphthol (AN) to generate the stable intense purple-colored radical with λmax 520nm had good linear with peroxidase concentration 0.08-1.32 nm and 0.02-0.66 nm by kinetic and one-time detection method and H2O2 amid 0.6 – 38.7 µM from the kinetic and 0.07- 4.83 µM by fixed time method, respectively. Moreover, the applicability of the proposed PPD-AN system has been successfully used to detect HRP activity in medicinal plants with crude extract as the source of enzyme and the outcomes were compared with the reference method. Overall, the present system can be adopted as a candidate system for the determination of H2O2.
ВПЛИВ АГРОХОЛДИНГІВ НА РОЗВИТОК СЕЛА В УМОВАХ ДЕЦЕНТРАЛІЗАЦІЇ ЕКОНОМІКИ

Вплив агрохолдингів на розвиток села в умовах децентралізації економіки як ніколи стає помітнішим. У країнах, що розвиваються, сільськогосподарський сектор все ще є дуже важливим для підтримки та прискорення економічного розвитку. Більшість сільськогосподарських площ розташована в сільській місцевості. Тому часто вважають, що розвиток сільської місцевості – це також розвиток сільського господарства. Природні та людські ресурси в сільській місцевості мають великий потенціал для розвитку в аграрному секторі. Земля та вода є основними природними ресурсами в сільській місцевості і використовуються для ведення господарств сільськими жителями, які здебільшого працюють у сільськогосподарському секторі. Тому управління природними та людськими ресурсами є запорукою успіху в реалізації цілей сільськогосподарського та сільського розвитку. Звичайно, цей успіх має бути підтриманий різними урядовими політиками та іншими пов’язаними установами, здатними заохочувати наявні людські ресурси в сільській місцевості.

Впровадження та розвиток як фізичних, так і нефізичних технологій також є важливими компонентами сільськогосподарського та сільського розвитку. Більшість економічного розвитку в країнах, що розвиваються, пов’язано з розвитком сільського господарства та сільського господарства, спрямованим на підвищення продуктивності землі та людських ресурсів, щоб покращити життя їхніх людей.

Економіко-фінансова структура стає інструментом стійкості, якщо вона періодично переглядається та вдосконалюється та впливає на більшість холдингових компаній у регіоні. В іншому випадку він має тенденцію стати руйнівним фактором, який поляризує можливості на користь регіональних лідерів, перешкоджаючи вільній конкуренції та знижуючи стійкий сільськогосподарський динамізм регіону. Серед елементів уразливості ми визначили організаційні аспекти, пов’язані з холдинговими компаніями, такі як: просування холдингових компаній, поширення переваг та зобов’язань асоціації, стратегічна співпраця з владою, залучення холдингових компаній до регіональної співпраці програми та заходи щодо скорочення логістичних ланцюгів.

Розвиток сільського господарства є невід’ємною частиною економічного розвитку сільської місцевості, яка потребує інтеграції. Кілька проблем, які виникають у сільськогосподарському та сільському розвитку, необхідно вирішувати, враховуючи різні аспекти. Сільські інституції мають бути залучені до реалізації аграрного та сільського розвитку. У випадку провінції Балі розвиток сільського господарства та сільської місцевості може бути спрямований на розвиток туризму, промисловості, навколишнього середовища та економічної діяльності. Це може бути у формі розвитку агротуризму, агропромисловості, інтегрованої системи землеробства (системи рослинництва та тваринництва) та сільських підприємств. Поліпшення сільськогосподарського та сільського розвитку прискорило зростання сільської економіки, таким чином зменшивши бідність
