Tactical-psychological aspect of interaction in the process of communicative investigative actions
Authors:   Tomsk State University (Tomsk, Russian Federation), Skorevich Alena S.
Published: March 2023

In an interrogation, the tactical value lies primarily in those structural elements of the forensic characteristic of the personality of the interrogator that suggest the possibility of effective influence on him or her. The effectiveness of the influence depends on the extent to which the personality traits are receptive to the stimulus contained in the tactical technique. Identifying the personality traits of the interrogator is therefore a necessary part of the interrogator's activity in communicative investigative actions. In order to investigate the ability to intuitively determine psychological properties of a person, a study was carried out. The collected empirical data demonstrates the following performance of psychodiagnostic skills without prior special training. When identifying a personality trait from a pair of polarities, the vector was correctly identified in 96 cases, or just under half (45.7%). Error gradation in quantitative determination of a personality trait is distributed as follows: a small error (up to 10 points) in 63 cases, a medium error (11-20 points) in 22 cases, and a large error (21-30 points) in 5 cases. The analysis of the obtained data allowed us to formulate the following conclusions. Conclusion 1. Interaction in the absence of specific training allows the psychological characteristics of the counterpart's personality to be assessed with 31 to 70 per cent accuracy. Conclusion 2. The effectiveness of tactical interactions is enhanced when directed at a susceptible personality characteristic. A significant error in the identification of psychodiagnostic characteristics based on the mundane level of skill in the tactical plan means the selection of ineffective or even counterproductive tactics. Conclusion 3. A solution to the problem of establishing personality characteristics beyond the habitual perception of the interrogator can be offered in the form of providing a description of the psychological characteristics of the individual. This description can be formulated in the format of a benchmark, psychotypes, parameters. - Benchmark A format for describing a person's characteristics that represents an example of a person who possesses the relevant psychological traits. - Psychotypes a format for describing personality characteristics, which represents mutually exclusive classification groups formed on the basis of psychological properties. - Parameters A format for describing personality characteristics that represents the structural components of a personality (such as processes, states and properties) in quantitative terms. Conclusion 4. Adaptation of borrowed knowledge having criminological value is reasonable to make, firstly, in relation to structure and content of tactical recommendations, secondly, in relation to personal features of the person conducting the criminal investigation, and thirdly, to the personality of the investigator.

No objections as a condition for refusing to initiate criminal proceedings due to the expiration of the statute of limitations
Authors:   Samara National Research University, Maryina Evgeniya V. , Kuvaldina Yuliya V. ,   Samara National Research University
Published: March 2023

The study poses two questions: (1) whether it is possible to refuse to initiate a criminal case due to the expiration of the statute of limitations if the person who committed the crime has not been identified; (2) whether it is necessary to obtain the consent of the person to refuse to initiate a criminal case on this basis, if it is established. The authors gave a negative answer to the first question, referring to Paragraph 3 of Part 1 of Art. 24 of the Code of Criminal Procedure of the Russian Federation, which declares the ineffectiveness of initiating a criminal case from the point of view of the appointment of a criminal process, and supporting it by the fact that the presumption of innocence does not apply to unidentified persons. When answering the second question, the authors indicated that the problem of classifying the statute of limitations as rehabilitating or non-rehabilitating grounds would not have arisen if this released person were not reflected in the pre-investigation statistics as a person who committed a crime. Therefore, by changing the statistical indicators, it would be possible to solve this problem. First, the Plenum of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation considers such a person to have committed a crime for the first time. Second, Art. 78 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation does not provide for such a condition for exemption from criminal liability as obtaining the consent of a person. Third, the meaning of the statute of limitations is that beyond their limits the state loses the right to prosecute, since the person ceases to be socially dangerous. Fourth, since guilt is not established at the stage of initiating a criminal case, it is impossible to say that the basis for refusing to initiate a criminal case is non-rehabilitating. Fifth, extending the rule established by Part 2 of Art. 27 of the Code of Criminal Procedure of the Russian Federation to the stage of initiating a criminal case would mean the use of a procedural analogy, which is not provided for by the Code of Criminal Procedure of the Russian Federation. Sixth, the position set forth by the Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation in Resolution No. 20-P dated May 19, 2022, allows equating consent with the absence of objections of a person against a refusal to initiate a criminal case; therefore, if such objections are not received from a person, it is presumed that the person agrees and the statute of limitations can apply. Thus, if the statute of limitations for criminal prosecution has expired, a criminal case should not be initiated, both in the case when the person has not been identified (the absence of this person is regarded as the absence of his/her objections to the refusal to initiate a criminal case), and if the person who committed the crime is established without clarifying his/her opinion on this issue.
“Special military situation”: General description of new laws
Authors:   ANO Dialogue Region, Trofimov Dmitriy O.
Published: March 2023

Bringing to criminal liability those who have committed a crime in a special military sitiation requires the legal categories that characterize this legally significant military situation to be fixed in the criminal law. It was carried out by the adoption of Federal Law No. 365-FZ of September 24, 2022, “On amendments to the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation and Article 151 of the Code of Criminal Procedure of the Russian Federation.” Federal Law No. 365-FZ of September 24, 2022, qualifies as crimes commited in a military situation: 1) crimes committed during the mobilization; 2) crimes committed during martial law; 3) crimes commited in wartime; 4) crimes committed in conditions of armed conflict; 5) crimes committed in the conditions of warfare. The author provides a justification for the terminological definition of the circumstances under the general name “special military situation” and analyses the normative grounds for their existence, content, and meaning, which is necessary for the correct application of these legal categories in practice.

Authors: Shibasaki Karina , Ventura Katia Sakihama , Rezende Danilo
Published: March 2023

The management of services for environmental health can be achieved through the use of indicators as a practice to improve urban infrastructure. The goal was to analyze the sanitary and environmental conditions in 14 municipalities in the Baixo Pardo/Grande watershed. The following steps were carried out: i) identification of indicators, ii) structuring of an evaluation model on a scale from 0 (zero) to 100, iii) consultation with specialists using the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) method, iv) elaboration of the index in georeferenced maps in QGIS, version 3.22. The model generated 18 sub-indicators grouped into 7 indicators. The index ranged from 21.55 to 66.72%, with 8 municipalities deemed medium health level, 5 deemed low and 1 unhealthy. In most municipalities, solid waste indicators stood out with high condition, while vegetation cover and urban drainage reached the lowest values. It is essential to establish measures and public policies to guarantee the evolution of these indicators in the basin.
Evaluation of Solid Waste Management of Municipalities in the Inter-municipal Solid Waste Consortium of Oeste Paulista (CIRSOP)
Authors: Pestana Laura de Oliveira Battistini , Ventura Katia Sakihama
Published: March 2023

The inter-municipal consortium was proposed as one of the initiatives of the National Solid Waste Policy as it allows the deployment of infrastructure on a regional scale, reducing operational costs and increasing the quality of life of the population served by these services. In this sense, the main objective of the work was to evaluate the management of solid waste in sanitary landfill, selective collection, waste composting and reverse logistics for the municipalities of the Inter-municipal Solid Waste Consortium of Oeste Paulista (CIRSOP). The method consisted of the organization of the theoretical framework, the selection of the study object and the evaluation of the initiatives established by the SAGReS software, consisting of an electronic spreadsheet prepared from monitoring variables. Of the total of 10 municipalities in CIRSOP, 50% allocate their waste to sanitary landfill. In addition, there is a lack of control of working conditions in selective collection cooperatives, lack of environmentally adequate destination for organic waste through composting, lack of control of parameters for reverse logistics and the need to disseminate information in online media, as these are not fully available or updated. The study identified that the biggest challenges of CIRSOP are the aspects involving composting, reverse logistics and landfill.
Cultural Heritage and the Base Nacional Comum Curricular: approaches between Heritage Education and the curricular guidelines for Elementary School (Early Years) in the recognition and safeguarding of local culture
Authors: Neto João Gonçalves , Assumpção Ana Laura , Bevilaqua Bruna Cristina , Gabriel Maria Helena , Castral Paulo César
Published: March 2023

This article discusses a possible approach between the debate on identity issues in the expanded field of Cultural Heritage, with Heritage Education as a space for action, and the guidelines on the appreciation of local culture present in the structuring of the Base Nacional Comum Curricular (BNCC) - special attention is devoted to the guidelines of Primary Education – Early Years. The theme can contribute to the construction of critical thinking on citizenship, popular participation, and formation of local identities, considering the relationship between present and past, rescue of memories, feelings of belonging, and identification of cultural references, thus preserving them. Access to the field of heritage ensures educational equity and respect for diversity with theoretical and practical foundations through reflections on Heritage Education, an area of education that must be in constant dialogue due to the experiences and perceptions of educators and students. The article compares the texts present in the BNCC with the theoretical productions on Cultural Heritage and Heritage Education through a literature search, identifying possible paths of educational actions towards inventorying and preserving cultural references of communities located in time and space. It also contributes to a broader discussion on the way Cultural Heritage and Heritage Education are cited in Brazilian official documents via the proposed approach.

In this paper a one-dimensional nonlinear Richards equation describing fluid flow in porous medium with inserted equalpowered sources is studied. An experimental iterational method is proposed to find source power to minimize the deviation of received humidity values from target values. Modeling was performed using numerical difference approximation of derivatives, resulting into a system of nonlinear equations with dependence from previous time step. The offered method allows to perform modeling for different source power values, and chooses the most suitable one.Iterations stop when they reach average modular difference value less than calculation error of numerical difference scheme. Here explicit scheme was used to save time, equations were tested for unsaturated medium only to avoid flooding the area, so source power is tested with given limitations. Results of simulations and choice for next source power approximations are described and compared until solution is found. This approach is considered as experimental so we plan to perform more analysis in the future.

Changes in complex bioclimatic indicators in Crimea since the middle of the 20th century
Authors: Stefanovich Anna A. , Voskresenskaya Elena N.
Published: March 2023

BACKGROUND: Observed global climate changes can significantly influence on the regional climate anomalies and recreational conditions over the Crimean peninsula.
AIM: To study the features of complex bioclimatic indicators changes on the territory of Crimea over a multidecadal period (~70 years), paying special attention to each month of the year, and on bases of obtained results to show the possible way of recreational activities development associated with these changes.
METHODS: For calculations, we used daily hydrometeorological data for each month from the archive of observations at the network of European weather stations E-OBS (v. 17.0) from 22 stations and NCEP/NCAR R1 reanalysis for the period of 19502018. The obtained arrays were verified in accordance with an open database of standard daily station observations in Crimea in 20052018. To assess the impact of climate change on the human body, the equivalent effective temperature, normal equivalent effective temperature, weight content of oxygen in the air (partial oxygen density) (O2), wet wind chill index Hill (Hw) and index Bodmann dry wind chiller (S) were calculated. The features of their linear trends for each month in the Crimean Peninsula were analysed.
RESULTS: Monthwise analyses of the bioclimatic indicator trends demonstrated an increase or decrease in recreational comfort in certain seasons. The most pronounced positive normal equivalent effective temperature trends over Crimea were observed from winter to spring. This indicated improved complex recreational conditions in recent decades and the possibility to extend the duration of the holiday season. The pO2, Hw and S indices had opposite tendencies throughout the year (except for December). According to the pO2 index, in the period from August to October, a physiological oxygen deficiency may be experienced throughout Crimea. Windy and uncomfortable bioclimatic conditions tend to increase in the steppes of Crimea in December.
CONCLUSION: The patterns of changes in bioclimatic indicators revealed through this study can be used as a regulatory factor for effectively organising and conducting recreational activities in the territory of Crimea and thus ensure the duration of the recreational period.
The relation between monogenetic and polygenetic dacitic volcanism. Case study from Tapias dome (<95 ka) and Cerro Machín volcano (<50 ka), Colombia

Published: March 2023

The Tapias lava dome is located ~5 km SE of the explosive, Cerro Machín polygenetic volcano, both located on the Colombian Central Cordillera. The edifices have been interpreted as generated by the same magmatic system; however, the genetic and temporal relations between both edifices have not been established. In this work, the Tapias dome is studied using petrographic characterizations, mineral-, whole-rock- and isotopic chemistry, geothermobarometric calculations, and a K/Ar radiogenic age, and subsequently it is explored the relationship with the Cerro Machín. The rocks from Tapias dome are porphyritic with phenocrysts of plagioclase (An28-48), amphibole (tschermakite and magnesiohastingsite), biotite, quartz, and Fe-Ti oxides, embedded in a glassy groundmass. Petrographically, two types of amphibole crystals were recognized: type I, which is homogeneous, and type II, which displays different rims. The composition of Tapias is dacitic (SiO2: 66.59 wt.%) with calc-alkaline affinity. Our geothermobarometric calculations indicate that type I amphibole crystallized at 871-874°C, between 10.2 and 10.4 km depth. The core of the type II amphibole crystallized at 852-920°C, between 8.5 and 12.3 km depth, while its rim did it at higher temperatures (880-973°C), but at similar depths (9.1-11.8 km). The K/Ar radiogenic age obtained for the groundmass shows an emplacement age not older than 95 ± 0.05 ka. When comparing the results to the Cerro Machín, it is noted that the mineral and compositional characteristics are nearly identical. These results suggest that indeed both volcanoes share the same magmatic system and are fed by magma hosted between ~9 and ~12 km depth. Moreover, it is proposed that the vent location of both edifices, as well as the time gap between the eruption at Tapias and the beginning of the activity at the Cerro Machín (~50 ka), are the result of crustal deformation caused by the interaction between the Otú-Pericos and Ibagué faults.

Published: March 2023

La evaluación fisicoquímica del agua extraída de fuentes subterráneas se convierte en una herramienta fundamental para la interpretación de la interacción existente entre agua-roca, teniendo como precedente el conocimiento del carácter geológico del territorio, y confiere una estimación inicial de posibles anomalías composicionales a causa de agentes externos que pueden alterar la calidad del recurso, condición que sugeriría estudios detallados sobre el origen, extensión y grado de afectación de estas fuentes contaminantes. El estudio hidrogeoquímico en la ciudad de Minas, Uruguay, se desarrolla en aras de contribuir al conocimiento hidrogeológico local, así como para definir si las aguas captadas actualmente por los habitantes son químicamente adecuadas para los usos a los que se destinan, tales como consumo humano y riego, o si requieren algún tratamiento de potabilización. La clasificación de aguas demostró que en la zona dominan las facies bicarbonatadas cálcicas y/o magnésicas, con un tiempo de residencia corto en el acuífero. Así mismo, se define que ciertos iones exceden los límites permitidos por la norma de potabilidad uruguaya. De acuerdo con el mapa de vulnerabilidad hidrogeológica de la ciudad de Minas, los pozos muestreados se encuentran principalmente sobre zonas catalogadas con vulnerabilidad alta a muy alta a la contaminación, ya que las características intrínsecas de los acuíferos favorecen la exposición de estos sistemas a escenarios puntuales de contaminación, como el enriquecimiento en nitratos por actividades antrópicas no controladas.
Zonificación del gradiente geotérmico en la cuenca Oriente de Ecuador a partir de temperatura de fondo de pozos

Published: March 2023

La cuenca Oriente (Cretácico-Cenozoico tardío) es una de las más complejas y atractivas cuencas sedimentarias de antepaís de los Andes septentrionales. Está constituida por diversos ciclos tectónicos y sedimentarios, desarrollada sobre un basamento Precámbrico. Con el fin de evaluar el potencial geotérmico teórico y los usos potenciales del calor en la cuenca, datos de temperaturas de fondo de pozos (BHT) de 1683 pozos petroleros profundos, distribuidos en 202 campos individuales, han sido ploteados en un mapa georreferenciado, cubriendo un área de 57.400 km2. El tratamiento estadístico de los datos para el cálculo del gradiente geotérmico incluyó correcciones de las BHT, de acuerdo con el método propuesto por Willet y Chapman. A partir de los datos trazados, se hace evidente que a lo largo del Corredor Sacha-Shushufindi, muestra valores bajos de gradiente (7,38 a 26,1ºC/km). Por el contrario, los valores altos de gradiente (26,1 a 69,01ºC/km) están presentes en el Sistema Subandino y en el Sistema Capirón-Tiputini. La distribución de anomalías de temperatura parece estar relacionada con el control estructural NNE-SSO de la cuenca, cuyo patrón de permeabilidad es bien conocido. La extracción de calor para usos comerciales se ve altamente facilitada por la existencia de pozos profundos que penetran en zonas de alto gradiente, lo que ahorra los costos generalmente prohibitivos de la perforación profunda.

Published: March 2023

This study aimed to determine how female farmers in Songan Village allocate their time to earn a living and to interpret the contribution of self-esteem, social support, gender equality, and job satisfaction to their subjective well-being. The study employed an explanatory research design and structural equation modeling (SEM) analysis. As an alternative to covariance-based SEM, variance- or component-based SEM, namely the partial least squares (PLS) method, was utilized. The research sample consisted of 201 respondents selected through proportional random sampling. The study found that 1) self-esteem and social support have a direct positive effect on the job satisfaction of female farmers in Songan Village, Bali, but the gender equality variable does not; 2) self-esteem, social support, gender equality, and job satisfaction have a direct positive effect on the subjective welfare of female farmers in Songan Village, Bali; and 3) self-esteem and social support have an indirect effect on the subjective welfare of female farmers in Songan Village, Bali. The female farmers of Songan Village define subjective happiness/well-being in simple terms, asserting that if they are able to meet the needs of their families (meyadnya and menyame braye), they are already happy/have achieved subjective well-being. Women with high self-esteem feel confident that they contribute a significant portion of the family's income. Therefore, the government should pay more attention to the development of women's knowledge and skills, particularly in the agricultural sector.

Published: March 2023

There are four basic skills in English, namely Listening, Speaking, Reading and Writing, speaking skills are still not maximally spared by students. [1]which states that speaking is an event of conveying one’s intentions (ideas, thoughts, heart contents) to others using spoken language so that the meaning is understood by others. Not a few students of Universitas Muhammadiyah Palangkaraya still cannot understand well and do not understand the sentences spoken by the interlocutors who use English. Role playing is one of the strategies recently seen as very useful and effective in learning speaking because role playing can arouse enthusiasm and motivate students and provide an injection to speak in English. This study aims to determine student activities during training and to find out whether the use of role playing strategies can improve students’ speaking skills. This Classroom Action Research was designed and implemented in the Study Program at the Faculty of Agriculture and Forestry, Farmacy and the Islamic Faculty of Universitas Muhammadiyah Palangkaraya. The research subjects were 30 students of the Universitas Muhammadiyah Palangkaraya S1 Program. who take English courses. The stages of this research consisted of planning, implementing the action, observing and reflecting. The results obtained from this activity based on the reflection stage were that the average score of students was 7.5 on the speaking ability test where in the initial test the average student score was below 70. Student activities in role playing activities also increased where they could speak using English with a predetermined theme although there are still some vocabulary and grammar that need to be improved.

In the concern of being a nation and state, Pancasila is kalimatun sawa‘ (common platform) for Indonesian. As a common platform, Pancasila values are bases for nation in living with others. The values are basically taken from public agreement in which derives from various cultures and faiths lives of nation cultural wealth. The case is the values of Pancasila (can also be read: Indonesian values) are not yet fully integrated in nation’s faiths. On the other hand, Pancasila confronts marketable transnational and radical ideologies among youth generation as well as Moslem students as the major nation generation. The abandoned ideological philosophy and socio-politic phenomenon would replace Pancasila, and it will not anymore be strong nation ideology and philosophy. Consequently, concept design and Pancasila study are highly required for moslem youth generation as well as moslem students to integrate Islamic vision and nationality. Finally, the study would give Pancasila study design which integrates both Islamic values and Indonesian values.

Even though, Indonesia is already in the 4.0 era which is called as the industrial revolution era, but it has not been able to force the world of education as a whole to switch to the ”online” world. In practice, the application of blended learning is still an option for teachers because some regions are not ready to use it both in terms of educational facilities and the quality of teachers. However, the covid19 become an instant changer of the education worldwide. The necessity of social distancing is a requirement that the learning process must be carried out from home and all teachers and parents, namely mothers, must change the rule suddenly. These changes must be adopted by mothers suddenly to become teachers of the online era. This study aims to describe the impact of online learning for mothers during a pandemic to see the readiness of mothers to undergo an online era in the 4.0 era and prepare for the 5.0 era. The study used a descriptive analysis method with a qualitative approach. The population and sample of this study were 60 mothers in several elementary schools in each sub-district in Padangsidimpuan City. The data collection technique used was a questionnaire instrument. The results showed that the percentage of mothers’ answers obtained was that they felt stressed by online learning during the Covid19 pandemic and were not ready to undergo the 4.0 to 5.0 era.
