How to Conduct Research in Your Private Practice
Authors: Persons Jacqueline
Published: April 2022

Mental health professionals who work in private practice and other clinical settings have huge opportunities to contribute to the science of our field. But they rarely do so. This article describes ways that practitioners who have research training can capitalize on recent developments in practice, science, and technology to conduct research in their private practice. I describe a model for conducting research as a practitioner that entails tightly integrating the research into clinical practice, and I point out why conducting research in your private practice is worth doing. The remainder of the article provides a primer, describing strategies for implementing in a clinical setting all the elements of the research enterprise: Addressing ethical and legal issues, keeping up to date with the scientific literature, selecting a good research question, conducting a single case experimental design, finding collaborators and assistants, collecting the data, analyzing the data, writing the paper and getting it published, and handling time and money. Although this article focuses on research in a solo or group private practice setting, many of the strategies described here can also prove useful in the conduct ofresearch in hospital or community settings.
A developmental understanding of the self may provide valuable insight into the experience of selfhood in dementia
Authors: Mentzou Aikaterini , Ross Josephine
Published: April 2022

The self is a complex and multidimensional construct with both reflective and experiential aspects. The experience of selfhood has been well documented in both developmental psychology and dementia research. However, these research fields have rarely come together. This is unfortunate, since a lack of sensitive measurement of self in adults with dementia has historically led to erroneous assumptions that people diagnosed with dementia experience total loss of self. Dementia causes profound self-alterations, particularly associated with gaps in autobiographical and semantic self-knowledge. However, important experiential manifestations of self may remain intact. Focusing on the emergence of different levels of self-processes in early childhood, and reflecting on conceptual similarities as well as methodological perspectives, the aim of this article is to explore how developmental approaches may be applied to provide a promising view direction into the experience of selfhood in dementia.

Authors: Betzler Brjan Kaiji , Ng Faye Yu Ci , Huang Yilun , HR Bin Abd Razak
Published: April 2022

Study Design: A systematic review.Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the prevalence of coexisting lumbar spondylosis (LS) and knee osteoarthritis (KOA), which has clinical implications on the screening, diagnosis, and management of orthopedic patients.Overview of Literature: Due to current global health trends, the number of affected patients is expected to increase substantially. However, no prior systematic reviews have discussed this topic.Methods: A systematic literature search was conducted in June 2021 in the PubMed, Embase, Scopus, CINAHL, and Cochrane CENTRAL databases. Clinical and epidemiological studies that reported quantitative data on the prevalence of coexisting LS and KOA were included. Studies which reported data on only LS or KOA alone were excluded. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) for LS or KOA were retrieved or calculated for meta-analysis. Fixed-effects and random-effects models were used, and statistical significance was considered when p<0.05. Heterogeneity was evaluated using Cochran’s Q test and the I2 statistic. Risk of bias was assessed using the MINORs (methodological index for nonrandomized studies) criteria.Results: This review included nine studies (5,758 patients). Four studies (4,164 patients) defined KOA and LS by a Kellgren-Lawrence (KL) grade of ≥2 and were included in the meta-analysis. Two other studies defined KOA and LS by a joint space narrowing grade of ≥2. The remaining three studies reported other outcomes. The combined ORs of having KOA of KL grade ≥2 due to LS was 1.75 (95% CI, 1.22–2.50; p=0.002), while the combined OR of having LS of KL grade ≥2 due to KOA was 1.84 (95% CI, 1.23–2.77; p=0.003).Conclusions: In patients with either KOA or LS, the odds of having a concurrent knee-spine presentation are significantly increased. This may have implications for clinical decision-making and treatment strategies. Further high-level studies with larger patient populations are required to confirm these results in specific populations.

The existing schemes of electronic interaction are analized in the article, the systematization of their advantages and disadvantages is done and the factors influencing the development of electronic interaction in Ukraine are offered. The factors and mechanisms of transformation of traditional forms of interaction are determined and the possibility and expediency of transition to electronic forms are analyzed, the difference of which is cooperation using publicly available information systems and computer networks. The basic concepts related to interaction via the Internet are described, the indicators that determine the development of e-commerce are identified, their dynamics in Ukraine and in the world are analyzed. The following methods were used in the research process: analysis, synthesis, generalization, induction, analogy, comparison, system approach. The analysis of statistical data made possible to note the low level of GDP per capita in Ukraine compared to other European countries. The percentage of e-shoppers and the percentage of e-GDP, i.e. GDP sold through e-commerce, is also low in Ukraine. Although it should be noted that Ukraine is among the ten countries with the largest number of online users, therefore, the country has great potential for doing e-business. During such global challenge as pandemic, there was a significant intensification of electronic forms of interaction in response to the socio-behavioral constraints caused by the pandemic.

DEVELOPMENT FACTORS OF THE REGIONAL TOURIST COMPLEX
Authors:   Khmelnytskyi Humanitarian and Pedagogical Academy, Dolynska Olesia
Published: April 2022

The article identifies factors that have a significant impact on the tourism and tourism complex development. It is determined that, the tourist complex is a typical intersectional complex, with a complex system of internal connections, based on the satisfaction of different people’s needs in the realization of tourist activities. It is mentioned that, the work of leading Ukrainian specialists in the geography of tourism points to the multifaceted nature and complexity of a clear and precise division of human activity into recreation and health improvement. This has led to different views on the factors of the development of the regional tourist complex. Traditionally, taking into account the theory of complex formation, they can be grouped into the following groups: economic, social, natural, ecological. The tourism territorial organization is one of the forms of economic processes social organization. It not only allows to indicate the most effective forms of spatial organization of economic processes, but also provides a scientific basis for the concept of sustainable development in understanding the optimization of economic processes and phenomena at the regional and local levels. The environmental impact of tourism is primarily related to such varieties as ecological and rural “green” tourism. They cannot exist only in the conditions of local natural landscapes preservation. The analysis of approaches to the selection of factors for the development of regional tourist complexes allows us to state that this remains a debatable issue in the geography of tourism. It is important to note that studying these factors we can raise the issue of territorial organization of regional tourist complex. For this purpose, it is necessary to define the available specialization of its territorial components and the complexity of the provision of tourism services. For the operation of tourism entities of various types, it is necessary to have a system of transport communications, water pipelines, gas and food pipelines, lines of communication and electricity, that is, a system of production infrastructure, without which no tourist complex is possible.

Published: April 2022

The article investigates and highlights the approaches to defining the concept of “enterprise restructuring” depending on the state of its development strategy, substantiates the economic essence of the concept of “innovation” and “innovative activity “. Based on the combination of characteristics and essence of these concepts, the definition of “innovative restructuring” is formalized and the author’s definition is proposed. It is determined that innovative restructuring is practiced not so much in crisis enterprises as in enterprises that operate stably and seek radical quality change. When making changes, the main ones should be the innovative orientation of management systems, production flexibility, purposeful and effective innovations. It is proved that for effective and complex innovative restructuring it is necessary to improve the enterprise management system by developing and implementing new principles, methods and management structures. That is why the elements of the mechanism of innovative restructuring of the enterprise were singled out and the functions of innovative restructuring were defined and detailed, which allowed to improve the conceptual and categorical apparatus of this economic concept. It is proved that the condition for effective implementation of innovations in the framework of restructuring is the presence of innovative potential in the enterprise. In addition, the transition of the enterprise from one stage of development to another involves the gradual development of innovation potential. This explains the close relationship and mutual influence between innovative restructuring and the innovative potential of the enterprise. Thus, the achievement of goals in the process of enterprise restructuring will depend on the ability to form an effective system of innovation management and the level of innovation potential of the enterprise – its ability to achieve innovative goals.

Peculiarities of conducting tourism business create internal risks. Timely risk assessment avoids penalties. Internal control in tourism has its own characteristics. The most important area of risk-oriented control is the verification and assessment of risks of investment and innovation activities. Attention is paid to the choice and development of the tourism enterprise’s own methods of internal control. Recommendations for checking the main activities of tourism enterprises have been developed. For the effective operation of the tourism enterprise, internal control should extend to the following areas: business planning; accounting and statistical accounting; economic analysis of financial and economic activities; risk identification and assessment; organization and monitoring of the system of input, internal and output information; execution of orders and instructions; control of cash flows of the enterprise, control of preservation of property, intellectual and human capital of the tour operator; organization and control of document flow of the tourist enterprise; assessment of the effectiveness of hiring and work of staff; prevention of fraud and abuse, money laundering in the company, as well as terrorist financing; fulfillment of social responsibility of business. Among the control procedures are: documentation, confirmation of compliance between documents, authorization of agreements and transactions, separation of powers and rotation of responsibilities, actual availability, verification of data, supervision and verification of computer processing of information. The proposed method allows logically step by step, interconnected and detailed verification of the tourist enterprise, interpret and analyze the impact of risks on financial results, make adjustments, make recommendations for risk prevention.

Published: April 2022

Understanding the importance of costs is important for effective enterprise management. Cost analysis helps to determine the level of the company, calculate the optimal cost, rationally set prices, plan the level of profit and profitability. Carrying out economic and production activities, the company consumes raw materials, fuel, energy, pays wages to employees who are charged for social and pension insurance, and bears other costs. That is, production costs refer to the costs incurred by the company in the manufacture of products or provision of works and services. Production costs are directly related to the income of the enterprise, as it is reimbursed from the proceeds from the sale of products (works, services), which ensures the continuity of the production process. The costs of the enterprise in accounting are reflected in a single monetary expression, and ultimately constitute the cost. Accounting of finished products is carried out on the basis of proper processing and execution of the relevant primary documents. Technologically, accounting as a process begins with the detection, measurement and registration of facts, actions and events in order to obtain information about business transactions. Thus, continuous monitoring of all business transactions at the enterprise is carried out through documentation. This article reveals the essence and significance of accounting documentation for the production of finished products, as well as synthetic and analytical cost accounting on the example of an individual enterprise, namely the Limited Liability Company «Tokmatskyi kovalsko – shtampuvalnyi zavod», which are directly included in the cost of finished products. The practical value of the results of the study lies in the possibility of implementing recommendations in the activities of industrial enterprises, which will improve the quality, efficiency of processing accounting information and profitability of the enterprise.

According to the International Labor Organization (ILO), there are about 164 million migrant workers in the world. This shows that the main motive for the migration movement is job search. About three-quarters of all migrant labor flows come from high-income countries, where one in six workers is an immigrant. Conversely, the highest level of emigration is from those areas that have a high level of poverty and virtually no social protection. The spread of the coronavirus has led to the rapid closure of national borders, and the vast majority of migrant workers have found themselves without income and in difficulty, prompting the ILO to call the situation a “crisis within a crisis.” The COVID-19 pandemic has had a negative impact on migrant workers, regardless of their job status and qualifications. While workers in the hotel and restaurant and retail sectors lost their jobs, those employed in health care and agriculture, on the contrary, were in demand and at risk of infection. Thus, the pandemic has sharply exacerbated the scale, degree of risk and uncertainty inherent in migrant workers, leading to even greater vulnerability. The article examines the impact of COVID-19 on the scale of external labor migration of Ukrainians and its economic and social consequences for the country. The peculiarities of international labor migration in the conditions of COVID-19 are clarified and probable prospects of transformation of migration tendencies are determined. Most migrants are currently in a state of uncertainty. On the one hand, they are temporarily cut off from foreign earnings, on the other hand, even in conditions of impossibility of migration, they are not interested in vacancies offered on the labor market of Ukraine. Based on the above study, we can conclude that most likely in the near future the volume of emigration will remain at the current level, and if the economic downturn continues, the number of emigration flows from Ukraine will increase.

WAYS TO IMPROVE THE EFFICIENCY OF USING FIXED ASSETS OF THE ENTERPRISE PJSC “PRYLUTSK BAKERY”
Authors: Cherep Oleksandr , Prykhodko V. ,   Zaporizhzhia National University
Published: April 2022

Undoubtedly, at any enterprise to increase the volume of production requires the provision of fixed assets. Namely, such fixed assets, which consist of buildings, structures, machines, tools and other means of labor involved in the production process, are the most important basis of the enterprise. Therefore, the company must set itself the priority – it is rational and economical use of fixed assets. Regardless of the form of ownership, for any enterprise fixed assets are the technical and material basis for the production process. Many companies face the problem of efficient use of fixed assets, ie inefficient attitude to the use of fixed assets, use worn and obsolete equipment. This problem is very relevant today. The stages of the management mechanism for improving the efficiency of use of fixed assets at the production enterprise are studied. Stages of the control mechanism are characterized: formation, use, renewal, disposal at the production enterprise. Each stage of the mechanism of management of fixed assets of the enterprise is characterized. The company needs constant modernization, automation and mechanization of production, along with the efficient use of fixed assets, gives a greater opportunity to expand production at the enterprise. The technical improvement of means of labor is revealed, and how the employees of the enterprise should work and carry out their activity. Thus, for efficient production activities, it is necessary to provide fixed assets. The main ways to improve PJSC “Pryluky Bakery” are: technical re-equipment on the basis of integrated automation; replacement of obsolete equipment, modernization of equipment; introduction of scientific organization of labor and production; improving the provision of material and technical resources. It is the efficient use of fixed assets that allows to increase production and increase the return of the created production potential, at the same time to increase the profitability of products. Fixed assets are the main part of the material and technical base of the enterprise. Increasing the efficiency of means of labor, at the same time increases the economic potential of the enterprise, increases production capacity, which is the result of increased output. This problem must be solved quickly, because the irrational and inefficient use of fixed assets reduces the competitiveness and deteriorates the financial condition of the enterprise. It is necessary to involve specialists to carry out complex repairs, improve the level of specialization of production, upgrade equipment, while improving the composition and condition of fixed assets, improve and improve the organization of labor, then it will be efficient and cost-effective use of fixed assets.

Published: April 2022

The issue of identifying and measuring business risks is extremely important for today’s business, because under any circumstances there may be a situation that will negatively affect the company and lead to unexpected financial consequences. All this requires the creation of an effective risk management system that would identify, anticipate and measure risks. It should be emphasized that there are certain rules and standards in accounting that allow you to pre-assess business risks. Therefore, to create such a system it is necessary to combine accounting standards and risk management principles. The risk management process involves identifying risks associated with business activities; assessment of information needed to identify risks; the choice of methods for assessing the probability of occurrence of a risky event; determining the amount of possible financial losses in the event of a risky event; comparison of the amount of damage with the criterion of materiality; reflection of accounting risks; choice of methods of internal risk neutralization. In modern conditions, the company is constantly faced with different types of risks during its activities. Therefore, the problem of identifying and reflecting risks is extremely relevant. The purpose of the article is to consider the issues of risk assessment and reflection. The types of risks depend on many circumstances and problems that the company actually faces. The reflection of risks in accounting involves the creation of certain funds, reserves, provision and recording of information about risk events in integrated reporting. The problem of identification, measurement and assessment of risks is extremely relevant, because in modern conditions, companies may have situations that are characterized by risks. Risk management is a rather complex process, which depends on its types and includes the procedure of certain actions and the use of methods for assessing possible losses. For enterprises, it is necessary to measure, assess the feasibility of reflection and reflect risks in integrated reporting. Further research should pay attention to the process of measuring and assessing risks.
FEATURES OF SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH IN ECONOMY

Published: April 2022

The current situation of the country requires a fundamental scientific approach to solving many economic problems. The implementation of scientific research will find ways out of the crisis, identify promising areas of economic development and its entry into a civilized market environment, assess the possibilities of using foreign experience of economic development to solve the problems of Ukraine’s economy. Differences in the classification of sciences determine the specific direction of scientific research. The peculiarity of economic research is that they are complex, i.e. they study social processes in different areas and with different tools. Peculiarities of economic scientific research are also connected with the peculiarities of economic processes themselves, which are the object of scientific research in economics. In economics, the coexistence of contradictory and even mutually exclusive theories is possible. Economic research and results that have long been considered indisputable can be adjusted, supplemented and even refuted over time. Economics, associated with the description of society, is constantly changing views and theoretical approaches to the analysis of social processes. Therefore, the same economic phenomenon, object or process can be described by several theories, and all of them will be new and original. Despite their specific features, economic research has its own subject area, which differs from other areas of scientific knowledge. This area is most clearly defined in the passports of the relevant scientific specialties. The content of a particular economic specialty has a clear distinction with other specialties, which allows to differentiate the research itself. The key to assigning a specific study to a particular specialty is the field of research. A key mistake in understanding the role of economics in solving problems is to give science itself a natural form, i.e. the belief that the presence of complex theoretical constructions (especially in the form of mathematical models) allows them to be effectively implemented in practice. An important result of scientific research in the economy is participation in projects and implementation of scientific developments in the real sector of the economy.

The structural-logical model of the system of formation, effective provision and increase of the level of social policy of the enterprise is developed. Within the framework of our research, we will focus more on the problems of improving the internal corporate social policy. When examining the incentives and functions of the provision of voluntary social services by an enterprise, many different points of view can be found. On the one hand, it is believed that the traditions that motivate managers to socially protect workers in their enterprises have been inherited from the planned economy. At that time, against the background of insufficient provision of the entire population of the state with a number of material and social benefits, managers tried to provide employees with the necessary level of social protection at the expense of the enterprise. Social policy at the enterprise should be based on the following principles: consideration of material and non-material needs and interests of employees; availability and publicity of the company’s expenses; economic feasibility in terms of costs and benefits; absence of duplication of social needs, which are sufficiently satisfied by state or other public institutions; taking into account the growing living standards and value systems of society.

Abstract The aim of the study was to explore how female academics in rural South African higher education developed resilience by balancing the pressures caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, work, and house chores; and rose above the harsh situations. Some people in Africa and across the globe argue that females do not enjoy the same privileges and opportunities at home and work because of patriarchy and societal norms that reinforce family and organisational practices favouring the male counterparts. The study adopted a qualitative research approach and a case study design. A purposive sampling technique was used to choose nine participants from three rural universities. Telephonic interviews were used for data collection, and the data were thematically analysed. This study found that female academicians were faced with a myriad of challenges, but influences from within the self helped them to build resilience. The study concluded that no matter what hurdles are along the way, women have learnt to fight for their space. The implication drawn from the study’s findings is that failure to address the challenges faced by female academics, especially regarding the workload policy, impacts negatively on the quality of work done and slows down knowledge production. Consequently, the study recommended that employers in higher education should come up with a workload policy/model that allows female academics to work more efficiently and effectively contributing constructively to knowledge production in higher education.
