Authors: Zlobin Kyrylo ,   KROK University
Published: July 2024

In the context of increasing competition and dynamic changes in the global economy, employee loyalty emerges as a key factor for the stability and success of enterprises. A high level of employee loyalty correlates with increased productivity, optimized costs for recruiting and adapting new employees, and the strengthening of the company’s positive image. Therefore, the development and implementation of effective methods for assessing loyalty is an urgent need for businesses. This study aims to systematize and analyze modern tools and methodologies for evaluating employee loyalty, identifying their effectiveness and features of application in various conditions and cultural contexts. The research is based on a survey of 525 employees of Ukrainian enterprises using Google Forms in two stages. Methods of questionnaires, interviews, statistical and content analysis were used. The research results confirmed the significance of integrating different assessment methods: from traditional surveys to modern analytical tools. It was shown that the automation of data collection and analysis significantly increases the accuracy of assessments and allows for the identification of deep patterns in employee behavior. The positive impact of corporate social responsibility on employee loyalty was also noted. For further development in this field, it is important to explore the impact of digitalization on loyalty assessment processes, particularly through the integration of artificial intelligence and machine learning. Additionally, it is necessary to study the intercultural aspects of assessment methods and adapt them to the needs of the globalized labor market. The importance of researching hybrid and remote work forms, as well as studying the social and psychological factors that influence employee loyalty, deserves special attention.

Authors: Push Andriy ,   KROK University, Mihus Iryna ,   KROK University,   Scientific Center of Innovative Research
Published: July 2024

The governance of banking institutions plays a critical role in the stability and integrity of financial systems globally. The structure of the board of directors significantly influences how banks manage risks, comply with regulations, and align operations with the interests of shareholders and other stakeholders. Understanding how board structures differ across regulatory and cultural landscapes is crucial for enhancing bank accountability and performance. This article aims to critically evaluate how various board structures impact the accountability of banking institutions across different global contexts. The goal is to identify effective governance practices that can be adapted to improve bank accountability worldwide. Employing a comparative case study methodology, this research analyzes board structures in banking institutions across continents including North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, the Middle East, Africa, and Latin America. Data from primary sources like interviews and secondary sources such as regulatory documents and academic articles are synthesized to assess the impact of board configurations on governance and accountability. The analysis reveals that effective board structures often include a high proportion of independent directors, robust audit and risk committees, and a commitment to diversity, which correlate with enhanced accountability and financial performance. However, variations exist due to cultural, economic, and regulatory differences that influence board effectiveness across regions. The findings suggest that while there is a global trend towards standardizing governance practices, local adaptations remain essential. The study recommends that banks and regulators focus on enhancing board independence, diversifying board composition, and strengthening risk oversight to improve governance frameworks. Future governance models should incorporate a dynamic approach to adapt to technological advancements, economic shifts, and societal expectations, ensuring that banking institutions can effectively meet emerging challenges and opportunities.

Authors: Pipersania Nripi ,   CMR University, Sam Keziah Mary ,   CMR University
Published: July 2024

The research focuses on how slow-tempo music alleviates the pain perception in an individual. The study aimed to investigate the potentialinfluence of slow-tempo music on pain perception and emotional well-being. Its objectives were twofold: first, to examine the influence of slow- tempo music on pain perception using the Pain Catastrophizing Model, and second, to explore the emotional well-being outcomes associated with exposure to slow-tempo music in pain scenarios. The pain threshold for an individual is described using the pain catastrophizing model of pain by Sullivan et al. As the name suggests, the key concepts include pain catastrophizing and emotional well-being. This study will focus on understanding how music, especially slow-tempo music may influence measures of pain and emotional well-being. 72 individuals aged 18-25 years will participate. Data collection will involve the utilization of psychometric testing. The assessment tools include the Geneva Music Induced Affect Checklist to gauge emotional responses to music, the Pain Catastrophizing Scale to assess individuals' tendency to magnify pain-related experiences, and the Positive and Negative Affect Schedule to measure general emotional states. The study analyzed correlations between painperception, emotional well-being, and music preferences using Pearson correlation coefficients. It found weak positive correlations between pain perception (PCS) and emotional well-being (PANAS), and emotional well-being (PANAS) and music preferences (GEMIAC). However, these correlations were not statistically significant at the conventional 0.05 level. Additionally, a weak negative correlation was observed between pain perception (PCS) and music preferences (GEMIAC), which also lacked statistical significance. Therefore, the study couldn't confidently establish significant associations between these variables based on the sample data.

A dor crônica é aquela que persiste por pelo menos seis meses e é frequentemente acompanhada por distúrbios do sono, alterações de humor e limitações nas atividades diárias. Estudos revelam uma alta prevalência de dor crônica, especialmente entre trabalhadores. Este artigo revisa a eficácia e segurança dos medicamentos amitriptilina, duloxetina e pregabalina no tratamento da dor crônica. A metodologia empregada foi uma revisão narrativa da literatura, utilizando bancos de dados como Medline, LILACS, PubMed e Google Scholar. Os critérios de busca foram refinados para incluir estudos recentes e relevantes sobre os três medicamentos estudados. Os resultados destacam que tanto a amitriptilina quanto a duloxetina e pregabalina são eficazes no controle da dor crônica, com evidências específicas de superioridade da duloxetina em várias condições, como neuropatia diabética. A combinação de pregabalina com amitriptilina também mostrou benefícios sinérgicos. Conclui-se que a duloxetina oferece vantagens significativas devido à sua ação dual na serotonina e noradrenalina, melhorando não apenas a dor, mas também sintomas comórbidos como depressão e distúrbios do sono. Em suma, embora todos os tratamentos melhorem a qualidade de vida dos pacientes com dor crônica, a escolha entre eles deve considerar cuidadosamente os perfis de efeitos colaterais e necessidades individuais dos pacientes.

TAX BUOYANCY IN MAJOR STATES IN INDIA
Authors: Aashish
Published: July 2024

In the world of fiscal policy, tax elasticity and buoyancy are crucial factors shaping a country's financial health. Tax elasticity measures how much tax revenue changes when national income shifts, showing how flexible the tax system is naturally, without deliberate policy changes. This flexibility helps stabilize revenue, reducing the need for constant tweaking of tax policies.
On the other hand, tax buoyancy reflects how tax revenue responds to economic shifts and intentional changes in tax policies. It acts like a gauge, indicating how effectively taxes adjust to economic ups and downs and how well policy decisions influence revenue. Low buoyancy suggests that there might be flaws in the tax system, prompting policymakers to rethink and improve tax strategies to better fit economic realities.
For a country like India, where tax revenues are essential for financing public spending, understanding these metrics is critical. The buoyancy coefficient compares the growth of actual tax revenue to national income growth, providing insights into how successful fiscal policies are in boosting tax revenues. Meanwhile, the elasticity coefficient shows how responsive the tax system is to changes in national income, revealing its potential to generate more revenue as the economy grows. Analyzing these metrics gives policymakers a detailed view of fiscal sustainability and economic stability. It helps them make informed decisions when designing tax policies, ensuring that the government can maximize revenue while allowing the tax system to adapt smoothly to economic changes. A balanced approach that considers both elasticity and buoyancy is key for India's fiscal strategy, ensuring a well-coordinated financial performance that aligns with national economic goals.

During the era of globalisation, we will be presented with the disharmony of the crisis of human values with the tension of Islamic norms along with the advancement of science and technology (IPTEK). Therefore, the correlation between aspects of religion / da'wah, social communication, and science needs to be integrated in the delivery of Islamic religious education and social character building. The main focus is how da'wah and Islamic religious education can build social character in accordance with Islamic values in the midst of rapid social change. The study presented in this research uses a literature review to collect, evaluate and synthesise information from various sources, thus building a comprehensive understanding of the topic discussed. This research found that da'wah and Islamic religious education are very important in building social character in accordance with Islamic values. The concept of effective da'wah communication can help in transforming the values of Islamic religious education into relevant da'wah applications in the modern era. Islamic religious education aims to improve the quality of human resources and create a decent situation for life and the environment. Da'wah and Islamic religious education have an important role in building social character in accordance with Islamic values. In the modern era, da'wah must be able to adapt to the development of science and technology and globalisation to remain relevant and effective. This research emphasises the importance of integration between da'wah and communication to achieve sustainable da'wah goals.

Purpose

The purpose of this work is to present a multivariate analysis of the kinematics of an upper limb rehabilitation robot. Comparing multiple concepts of kinematic chains allows identifying advantages and disadvantages and as a consequence choosing the optimal solution to create a physical device. Such actions shall contribute towards automation of the rehabilitation process, bringing benefits to both therapists and patients in comparison with conventional rehabilitation.

Methods

Multivariate analysis of kinematics was performed on the basis of three concepts of the kinematic chain of an exoskeleton, enabling the rehabilitation of both right and left upper limb within the area of the shoulder joint, elbow joint and wrist. The kinematic chain allows the performance of simple and complex movements.

Results

The results of the conducted multivariate kinematic analysis define specific movements and angular ranges, which may be performed while applying one of the proposed concepts of the robot design. The results made it possible to determine the optimum solution to the kinematic diagram and construction design, which best satisfy the expectations for effective rehabilitation.

Conclusions

The analysis of the kinematic diagram concept of the exoskeleton should be done in relation to its design (construction form). Considering the obtained parameters, it is necessary to find an optimum concept and wisely manoeuvre the values, in order to avoid a situation in which one significant parameter influences another, equally important one. It is noteworthy that the introduction of changes into particular segments of the kinematic chain often has a significant impact on other segments.

Purpose

The paper shows a preliminary study of the basic strength parameters of printed parts made of biocompatible polymers with ceramic layers applied to increase the strength of the tool cutting surface.

Methods

The specimens were made from different materials and using different 3D printing technologies and the working surfaces that will eventually form the cutting element of the tool were coated with Al2O3. Gloss tests were conducted, properties of the coating, a scratch test of the coated surface, also evaluated surface topography.

Results

Based on the conducted research, it was found that polymeric materials are characterized by sufficient strength and can be used for disposable tools, however, the use of thin layers of Al2O3 significantly increases the surface strength parameters, which may have a significant impact on the reliability and durability of the tools. The polymer surface covered with an Al2O3 layer is characterised by increased scratch resistance ranging from 24% to 75% depending on the core material and printing technology. The gloss of the surfaces is disproportionately low compared to currently used metal tools, which indicates that they can be used in endoscopic procedures.

Conclusions

Based on the conducted research, it was found that the use of thin layers of Al2O3 covering polymer 3D prints is an excellent way to increase strength parameters such as scratch resistance, tribological parameters, and light reflections arising on the surface as a result of endoscopic lighting are disproportionately small compared to metallic biomaterials. This gives great hope for using polymer 3D prints for personalised neurosurgical tools.

Purpose

The objective of this research is to develop a sensor device to control and evaluate the jumping ability of elite volleyball athletes and to test its efficacy in a pedagogical experiment.

Methods

The study involved determining the pulsometric and respiratory parameters during test loads, indicative of the endurance and speed–strength aspects essential for volleyball performance. Additionally, the necessity for post-training and post-competition jump performance restoration via short-term relaxation exercises was identified.

Results

Through the developed computer program, a methodology for storing maximal vertical jumps in computer memory was established. Furthermore, a technique was developed to determine the functional significance of maximum vertical jump performance among elite volleyball players. Notably, participants in the experimental group, who performed specialized exercises developed within the experimental framework, exhibited discernible progressive improvements compared to the control group participants. Before the experiment, the maximum number of jumps in the experimental group was 29.2 ± 2.73, with a jump time of 31.7 ± 3.08.

Conclusions

The equipment developed for monitoring and assessing volleyball players' jumping ability has proven effective, warranting its incorporation into training regimens.
