Authors: Maslii Oleh
Published: January 2020

The article is devoted to the motivational readiness of future officers of missiles and artillery armament as a factor of their professional development. The author noted that the motives occupy an increasingly prominent place in the structure of future missile and artillery armament officers’ professional training for a future military service. These motives are determined in the article as a person’s inner encouragement to activity, connected with meeting certain needs. The benefit of this study is that a group of motives that determine the professional activity of military specialists has been identified. Moreover, the analysis of the motivational sphere gave grounds to identify the needs of the cadets: an attractiveness of the specialty, a physical training, a military honor and dignity, relations with colleagues, obtaining a civilian specialty for budgetary funds, a social status, and an extension of family traditions of military service. The motivational readiness of cadets is characterized by the appropriate orientation and the presence of the content of activities, the professional attitudes of an individual. As a result, the cadets’ motivational readiness is defined as a stable system of the person’s psychological formations that create appropriate states of mind and encourage military experts to work. The author has made a conclusion in the article that the professional training of a future officer of missile and artillery armament should result in the following: the qualitative performance of operational duties; the ability to make interpersonal relations with a personnel; the ability to see the point in a military service, to set goals, and to exert an insistence in reaching them, to rationally share the duties among the military servicemen, to get a job done; the ability to adapt for a change in social environment through general and military education; a desire for continuous self- development; a confidence in personal skills and correctness of the path pursued. The following three levels of motivational readiness of future officers are revealed by the author of the article: high level (characterized by a pronounced need in military professional self- development), average level (distinguished by the motivational and value structure), low level (characterized by a poor value orientation and military service guidance).

Authors: Bahno Yuliia
Published: January 2020

The current stage of development of higher education in Ukraine is characterized by a special intensity and scale of transformations, which envisage the formation of a holistic educational space based on the unification of national educational services markets, conditioned by globalization and integration processes.
The training of scientific-pedagogical and pedagogical workers of higher educational institutions is considered in this context as an important prerequisite that ensures the modernization of education. In these conditions, the renewal of the content of the Master of Education training is of particular importance, it will equip a future teacher with the skills to integrate special psychological-pedagogical, methodological and didactic knowledge in the conditions of professional activity. A guideline on this issue is that European standards and recommendations for graduate students are formulated in the Dublin Descriptors and the European Qualification Framework. These European benchmarks, as well as the expansion of academic freedoms, changing educational paradigms require a fundamentally new content, methods and forms of the Master of Education training, the purpose of which is to shape the personality of a student as a teacher and professional of an institution of higher education who is able to independently and
creatively think and act.
The staff of the department of pedagogics of Pereiaslav- Khmelnytskyi Hryhorii Skovoroda State Pedagogical University developed the concept of educational activities in the specialty 011 Educational, pedagogical sciences, fields of knowledge 01 Education / Pedagogy.
The concept provides for the formation of masters of education integrated competence, general and professional competencies. The development of these competencies will be facilitated by the introduction of a dual form of higher education. The dual form of getting higher education is a way of getting an education; it provides for a combination of training of applicants of higher education in institutions of higher education with training in workplaces in institutions, organizations and enterprises for obtaining certain qualifications, usually on the basis of a contract, with the performance of official duties.
The high level of the Master of Education professional training in the conditions of the dual form of education is possible due to the mastering of the basics of the professional teaching activity of the teacher of the institution of higher education in real conditions; application of modern educational technologies of practical activity; the methodological readiness of a master of education to implement the educational process in institutions of higher education.

This is a quasi-experimental study; a four-month intervention-program designed to boost the empathetic attitude in public school students of Pakistan. The empathy towards bullying was assessed in experimental (199) and control (184) groups.  The study had three phases. In the first phase the students  were  engaged in different activities to foster empathy which established that empathetic score of students increased and the score of bullying tendencies decreased after the use of interventions. The activity began with a story, followed by a group discussion, highlighting the different aspects of human feelings, emotions and behaviors, alongside encouraging children to give their feedback. In the second phase 98 students were selected from treated group, boys (N= 53) and girls (N= 45). Six more interventions were applied including  reciting stories, question-answer sessions related to stories, followed by asking about the lessons students learnt from these stories. These conversations ended on  brief lectures of trainers about empathy guided by the researcher during the training of trainers. After completion of this session, in the third phae, for qualitative assessment selected students from treated group were asked to write a story about empathy. The study found that the boys and girls grasped the concept of empathy differently. For boys described empathy as being helpful while girls as a means of getting happiness; but both did not associate empathy with kindness. Also, the boys believed that parents are the first to notice changes in their personality while girls think its their teachers. Moreover, for adopting the attitude of empathy, unlike boys, girls showed more collective rather than personalized  approach.

SMEs need to develop approaches to innovation, with defined directions for developing processes based on innovation structures, and integrated with the innovation management approach. Few authors have discussed the measurement and development of scales applied in the area of administration, which provide the preliminary steps for validating measurement scales. What procedures are required to carry out the validation of scales and which constructs measure innovation and creativity? The method adopted in this theoretical essay was that of content analysis. The general objective of this work was to carry out a theoretical-conceptual study of the quantitative method in the measurement of innovation and creativity; and, as specific objectives, 1) to characterize the theoretical-conceptual evolution of a valid quantitative method for measuring innovation and creativity; 2) to develop concepts of ways to validate the quantitative methods used in the academic work on innovation and creativity; and to present constructs that would indicate the presence of innovation and creativity for the generation of modeling. To tackle the problem, the following question is proposed: how can innovation and creativity be validly measured? To answer this question, we first carried out a theoretical-conceptual review of the existing literature. We then used the review to conceptualize innovation and creativity, search for the main instruments to measure innovation and creativity, and set out the steps needed to validate a measurement scale for them. This work is directed to researchers in the area of ​​measurement and the development of scales.

Published: January 2020

The news about the number of arrests conducted by the Corruption Eradication Commission is one proof of the high level of corruption in Indonesia. The fact that there are still many cases of fraud or fraud that cannot be detected due to the lack of effectiveness of auditors in carrying out audit procedures. This study was conducted to try to determine the effect of task complexity, the role of the Whistleblower and the ability of investigative auditors to the effectiveness of implementing audit procedures in proving fraud. This research will be conducted using a survey conducted with a questionnaire instrument that is first tested for its validity and reliability. The population in this study were investigative auditors at the Lampung Provincial Audit Board (BPK) and the Lampung Province Audit Board of Finance and Development (BPKP), with a sample of investigative auditors or auditors who were and were able to conduct investigative audits. The update of this study is that in this study the authors used other variables that influenced the effectiveness of the audit procedures in the proof of fraud which were still rarely examined in previous studies, namely the variable task complexity, and the role variable whistleblower. Another difference in research is the population used in research.

Published: January 2020

Several teaching and learning methods, alternative to the traditional method of content transmission and reception, are being proposed and discussed by researchers, aiming to improve the professionals' formation. One of the methods being applied in various educational areas and at different levels of education is the Problem Based Learning (PBL). However, there is still not much evidence about the advantages and disadvantages of applying this method in the formative process of students in postgraduate courses. Consequently, the objective of this work is to evaluate the perception of postgraduate students of a Stricto Sensu course after experiencing the PBL method in their formative disciplines. Through the application of a questionnaire, the perceptions of students who used the PBL method and the traditional teaching method, respectively, were collected in two disciplines of the Interdisciplinary Master's Degree in Sustainability, from a private university in the state of São Paulo - Brazil. The results show the feeling at the beginning and during the learning process using PBL; the perception of the PBL when compared with the traditional teaching method; and the perception of specific skills developed with the PBL. Finally, it can be said that PBL is a teaching method with broad potential in the learning process of a postgraduate course, both for the possibility of building knowledge autonomously, and for the development of specific competences and skills related to postgraduate study and research activities.

Published: January 2020

Colon cancer is a growing health problem in Brazil. According to data from the World Health Organization (WHO), colon cancer is among the top ten causes of mortality and morbidity in the world. Besides, the disease has a significant economic impact on the Brazilian public health system. Over the past five years, there has been an increased interest in use, isolation, characterization and determination of the biological actions of compounds such as broccoli. Experimental studies with genetically modified (GMOs) rats, mice, and rats using Sulforaphane have demonstrated their ability to prevent, delay and reverse pre-neoplastic lesions, improved survival, as well as acting on neoplastic cells with therapeutic action. Sulforaphane through activation of Nrf2 increases the activity of phase II enzymes such as glutathione S transferase (GST), which is involved in the elimination of xenobiotic compounds. Aberrant crypts are induced, in Wistar rats and mice, by genotoxic and non-genotoxic chemical compounds. Colon carcinogenesis is generally induced in rats and mice by two substances, 1,2-dimethylhydrazine (DMH) and azoxymethane (AOM). Azoxymethane is often used concerning DMH because it is more potent and requires few reactions for its activation. It is possible to conclude that Sulforaphane, through its various biological actions, presents efficiency in the prevention of colon cancer and significant potential for use in future experimental studies with genetically modified rats, mice, and rats.

Published: January 2020

The present work discusses Geographical Indications, which have increasingly grown in Brazil, becoming of extreme importance for territorial development. With this in mind, this work is aimed at establishing a centrality indicator for municipalities, capable of contributing for Geographical indication, based on the development on the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of services for promoting local development. The measurement of centrality adopted in this work is based on the arrangement of GDP data on services, according to the Central Place Theory, in which cities are hierarchically organised and some services are only provided by more relevant locations. The database used for assessing the levels of centrality of municipalities were divided into four different groups: participation of the gross value added of services, excluding public administration on the gross value at total current prices; in the state level; in the microregion; in the country. The analysis observed simple structure averages to operationalise the hierarchical ruler, having established that the best route concerned attributing weighting coefficients to the group of indicators through a linear combination algorithm. It is important to point out that the most important tool considered included the Principal Component Analysis (PCA). Accordingly, it was established that a location is an important territory with what concerns the spatial contour, with the service sector (excluding the public service) having an impact on local economy. Therefore, the registration of a Geographical Indication may promote economic development, attributed to the increase in local production, demand and greater added value and, consequently, an upsurge in the generation of jobs and wealth, having a relevant impact in the notoriety of the region.

Physical activity can be used as a strategy in the recovery of addicts, especially in activities focused on education and leisure since it helps to control stress and anxiety. Thus, the objective of this study was to analyze the insertion and to verify the acceptance of the Physical Education professional in the recovery process of addicts living in the seven therapeutic communities in the city of Campo Grande (Capital of the State of Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil). To achieve this objective, the coordinators and resident monitors answered a semi-structured questionnaire prepared by the researchers, consisting of 10 questions, 6 objectives in which the participants indicated the level of importance in relation to the inquiry and 4 subjective questions with the intention of investigating the modalities of physical activity most practiced in Therapeutic Communities (TCs) and other pertinent subjects. The results showed that the participants think it is very important to perform physical activity in the treatment of addicts and believe that the presence of the Physical Education professional to conduct such activities is also valid. In the CTs with this professional (n=1) the activities mentioned were weight training, soccer and stretching while in the others (n=6) running, stretching, walking, soccer, volleyball, workout gymnastics and group games were described. It was concluded that there is a very positive inclination toward the acceptance of the physical education professional in the recovery plan of addicts even in communities where there is no presence of this professional acting.
In defense of the simplicity and accuracy of dependency syntax: A reply to the discussion notes
Authors: Osborne Timothy J.
Published: January 2020

My focus article in Language Under Discussion from 2018 argued that dependency syntax is both simpler and more accurate than phrase structure syntax with respect to the results delivered by tests for constituents. Four linguists (Richard Hudson, Lachlan Mackenzie, Stefan Müller, and Matthew Reeve) have responded to my focus article with discussion notes, challenging aspects of my message in various ways. In this article, I respond to the counterarguments produced in the discussion notes. In order to address one of the main counterarguments, having to do with scope and meaning compositionality, I introduce a new unit of dependency syntax, namely the colocant. My claim is that aspects of scope and meaning compositionality, for which phrase structure is deemed necessary, can be addressed in terms of colocants. Hence, scope phenomena and the manner in which meaning is composed can no longer be construed as an argument against dependency syntax and in favor of the necessity of phrase structure.

It has been shown theoretically and confirmed experimentally that the dispersion of dirt particles found in engine oils and working fluids affects significantly their physical properties. In particular, it has been established that if dirt particles are artificially dispersed in a lubricant, its electrical conductivity increases. This, in turn, is expected to lead to a decrease in the share of electrostatic wear of the tribo units. Such particles are also able to increase the mechanical strength (surface tension) of lubricating films, that is, to make the boundary layers more durable, due to which we can expect a decrease in wear of tribo units. In this case, the thermal conductivity of oil lubricating films with highly dispersed dirt particles does not change.

Nowadays, the emergence of new lubricants requires an enhancement of the rheological models and methods used for solution of corresponding initial boundary-value problems. In particular, models that take into account viscoelastic properties are of great interest. In the present paper we consider the mathematical model of nonstationary motion of a viscoelastic fluid in roller bearings. We used the Maxwell fluid model for the modeling of fluid properties. The viscoelastic properties are exhibited by many lubricants that use polymer additives. In addition, viscoelastic properties can be essential at high fluid speeds. Also, viscoelastic properties can be significant in the case of thin gaps. Maxwell's model is one of the most common models of viscoelastic materials. It combines the relative simplicity of constitutive equations with the ability to describe a stress relaxation. In addition, viscoelastic fluids also allow us to describe some effects that are missing in the case of viscous fluid. An example it is worth to mention the Weissenberg effect and a number of others. In particular, such effects can be used to increase the efficiency of the film carrier in the sliding bearings. Here we introduced characteristic assumptions on the form of the flow, allowing to significantly simplify the solution of the problem. We consider so-called self-similar solutions, which allows us to get a solution in an analytical form. As a result these assumptions, the formulae for pressure and friction forces are derived. Their dependency on time and Deborah number is analyzed. The limiting values of the flow characteristics were obtained. The latter can be used for steady state of the flow regime. Differences from the case of Newtonian fluid are discussed. It is shown that viscoelastic properties are most evident at the initial stage of flow, when the effects of non-stationarity are most important.
