AXIOLOGY OF NEOLOGISMS WITH A COLORATIVE COMPONENT (Based on the Material of Online-Dictionaries)
Authors: Katermina Veronika V. , Lipiridi Sophia Ch.
Published: June 2023

The purpose of the article is to identify lexical and semantic features of color designation in determining the national cultural specificity of language and speech means. This article illustrates the key characteristics that clearly reflect semantic shifts in vocabulary caused by rethinking axiological components: the frequent use of the green lexeme as part of neologisms; the creation of a new system of values with the help of neologisms with a positive connotation; the emergence of terms naming a person by the professional activity; a significant increase in the group of neologisms associated with economic and environmental discourses; the use of words related to gastronomic culture; interest in the problems of the impact of modern technologies on human life. The study of neologisms as a means of representing values and forming an assessment expands the range of research in the field of axiology and neology.
Mecanismos causales: una perspectiva metodológica en auge para el estudio de las políticas públicas
Authors: Paz-Gómez Diana Marcela , Córdova Marco , Santelices María Caridad
Published: June 2023

Los mecanismos causales como enfoque cualitativo para explicar los fenómenos sociales están en auge. La última década presentó un aumento en la producción desde disciplinas como las ciencias sociales y la ciencia política, las cuales han impulsado un movimiento mecanicista como alternativa al meanstream fundamentado en análisis cuantitativo y econométrico. Recientemente, las políticas públicas han incorporado esta perspectiva mecanicista para explicar el proceso que produce resultados y dar explicaciones sobre qué podría afectar dichos resultados; es decir, con la intención de abrir la caja negra de las políticas públicas. No obstante, la producción académica sigue siendo incipiente. Este artículo propone una revisión bibliográfica de los mecanismos causales y su abordaje en el estudio de las políticas públicas en América Latina. Tomando la base de datos Web of Science (WOS), se identifica la producción seminal sobre mecanismos causales en diferentes disciplinas, principalmente en Europa, Estados Unidos y Canadá. Enseguida, se explora el abordaje desde las ciencias sociales. Finalmente, la discusión se concentra en explorar la producción disciplinar en la región para dar cuenta de la necesidad de incorporar este enfoque en el estudio de las políticas públicas.

Authors:   The Korean Society of Beauty and Art, Kim Jeong-hee , Song Tae-im
Published: June 2023

This study aimed to find out the effect of semi-permanent makeup behavioral characteristics on reuse intention and recommendation intention for adult women aged 30-50 or older who have experienced semi-permanent makeup. To this end, a survey was conducted from June 1 to 21, 2022, and the results are as follows. First, the higher the technology, performance, and physical factors, the higher it was. Among each sub-factor of semi-permanent makeup behavioral characteristics, the higher the intention to reuse, the higher it was. Second, it was found that the technical factors, performance factors, and physical factors by sub-factors of the semi-permanent makeup behavioral characteristics had a statistically significant effect on the recommendation intention. Third, it was found that the intention to reuse had a statistical effect on the intention to recommend. Therefore, the higher the intention to reuse semi-permanent makeup, the higher the recommendation intention. The results of this study are expected to be used as basic data for presenting positive aspects of semi-permanent makeup and promoting effective marketing.
Analysis of Flower Image-based Updo Hairstyles: Focusing on Wedding Updos
Authors:   The Korean Society of Beauty and Art, Kim Hyun Hee , Park Eun Jun
Published: June 2023

Recently, the average age of marriage has gradually increased, and the micro-wedding has become more popular. Under these circumstances, this study is meaningful in that it aimed to examine the diversity of updo hairstyles in simplified wedding culture. In updo hair accessories, there has been an attempt to change from artificial jewelry to natural flowers. Even during such transition, the pursuit of beauty remains unchanged. As the richness and beauty of flowers in diverse colors and shapes make people happy, this study attempted to express beauty, using up-styling techniques and elements such as shape, texture and color with flower images as motives with a goal of making guests happy and satisfied. To meet a bride’s desire to remember her wedding moment forever and make her more beautiful with a flower-based updo style, this study created hairstyles with flowers as motives for a blessed wedding. Specifically, yellow chrysanthemum and green calla symbolize ‘wealth & authority’ and ‘love of thousand years’ respectively while pink Lamprocapnosand green rose represent ‘love in heat shape’ and ‘world of imagination’ each.
Fire Performance of Fiber-reinforced Ultra-High-Performance Concrete: A state-of-the-art review
Authors: Khan Mehran , Kai Mingfeng , Ahmad Muhammad Riaz , Lao Jiancong , Dai Jian-Guo
Published: June 2023

Explosive spalling is a major problem for structures made of ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC) after being exposed to fire, which hinders their practical applications. To overcome this obstacle, fibers have become an essential constituent of UHPC in past decades. This paper summarizes a state-of-the-art review related to the fire performance of UHPC using single and hybrid fibers. The spalling behavior, spalling mechanism, mechanical properties, and microstructure characteristics of fiber-reinforced UHPC are summarized, and structural performance of fiber-reinforced UHPC members at elevated temperatures is discussed. This review reveals that fire-induced spalling is a significant concern in UHPC, and it can be caused by various mechanisms. The addition of fibers can play a crucial role in preventing spalling, and different mechanisms for different types of fibers have been reported in the literature for UHPC with both single and hybrid fibers. Therefore, fiber hybridization is recommended to enhance the spalling resistance of UHPC. The future directions and challenges for UHPC at both the material and structural levels are discussed.

The Day‑of‑the‑Week Anomaly in Light of the COVID–19 Pandemic on an Example of Selected OMX Indices
Authors: Bolek Monika , Gniadkowska‑Szymańska Agata , Lyroudi Katerina
Published: June 2023

This paper analyzes market efficiency (EMH) with the day‑of‑the‑week effect and the changes that might appear after the outbreak of the COVID–19 pandemic, based on the example of the OMX Exchange and its indices. Before the pandemic, only the OMX Baltic All‑share index was efficient; during the COVID–19 pandemic, the OMXCPI Index, which represents the Copenhagen stock market, was not affected by the day‑of‑the‑week anomaly. The change in market efficiency was observed in relation to the periods before and during the pandemic, and additionally between specific days of the week. The value added of this paper is related to the evidence that COVID–19 influenced market efficiency but not the quality of trading.

The Integrated Neuropsychological Therapy: A Psychotherapy Model Tying Neuropsychology and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
Authors: Salzano Sara , Zappullo Isa , Baiano Chiara , Conson Massimiliano
Published: June 2023

Transdiagnostic cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is based on the identification of dysfunctional processes and intervention principles shared across psychopathology. From a neuropsychological perspective, deficits of executive functions and social cognition have been identified as common mechanisms involved in the genesis and maintenance of different psychopathological disorders. The present article describes a new psychotherapy model, the integrated neuropsychological therapy (INPT), built on the principles of transdiagnostic CBT and neuropsychology. Case formulation is operationalized into three levels of functioning, that is, automatic, reflective, and strategic, considering both neuropsychological processes and clinical contents. Treatment planning involves three phases, that is, preparation, enhancement, and change, each consisting of different treatment modules defined according to the above levels of functioning. These modules are selected based on the patient’s profile defined during case formulation. The theoretical foundations of INPT are provided, and a case description is presented, which illustrates the implementation of the treatment model.
An Investigation of the Moderating Role of Estradiol in Interoceptive Exposure Therapy for Women With Panic Disorder
Authors: Levy Hannah C. , Goldblum Rachel S. , Mullins Jessica , Tolin David F.
Published: June 2023

Emerging research in animal models and healthy women indicates that the sex hormone estradiol may moderate fear of extinction. There is limited research on estradiol in exposure-based therapy among clinically anxious women. The current pilot study aimed to address this gap by comparing exposure outcomes in women with panic disorder (PD) who had high (HE) vs. low estradiol (LE). Twenty-eight women (14 per group) with PD completed two interoceptive exposure sessions on consecutive days as well as self-report measures of panic severity. Electrodermal activity was assessed continuously throughout the exposure sessions. Results showed that although anxiety sensitivity and subjective distress improved from pre- to postexposure, suggesting that the intervention was effective in reducing panic-related anxiety, there were no differences in outcomes between the HE and LE groups. The findings suggest that estradiol may not moderate outcomes in exposure therapy in clinically anxious samples, although replication in larger samples will be needed.
Financial Capability and Saving Behavior: Evidence From Industrial Workers in Thailand
Authors: Wongmonta Sasiwooth
Published: June 2023

This article uses unique survey data to examine the determinants and potential impacts of financial capability on the savings decisions of Thai industrial workers. A random sample of 352 individuals was interviewed, using the questionnaire to gather information on demographics and financial capability. It finds that less than half of the respondents were able to handle an emergency expense of 1 month’s income without borrowing. The results indicate that socioeconomic factors including education level, household income, and age are the key determinants of financial capability. Migrant workers from remote regions of the country are more likely to have a lower financial capability, especially in the financial knowledge component. An instrumental variable approach is used to investigate its potential impact on saving behavior. Overall, the strong and positive association between financial capability and savings adequacy suggests that financial education initiatives should place a strong emphasis on household budgeting and savings.

Authors: Zhang Yu , Fan Lu
Published: June 2023

This study examines associations between a set of financial stress factors and three types of utilizations of mobile financial technology (fintech) from a stress-coping perspective. With data from the 2018 National Financial Capability Study, the results indicated that financial stress, perceived overindebtedness, and stressful financial stressors were positively related to the usage of mobile fintech for fundamental financial task management, mobile transaction, and mobile banking. Policy makers need to be aware of the opportunities generated within the growing fintech industry and its potential role as a stress-coping resource for consumers experiencing financial stress, perceived overindebtedness, and financial stressor events. Financial practitioners, educators, and institutions can apply the findings of this study as they develop and promote financial services and products through mobile devices to create greater access for individuals to cope with financial stress and difficulties.
The Concept and Characteristics of a Defect of Discretion in Law
Authors: Onosov Yu. V.
Published: June 2023

The article touches upon the problems associated with defects in law related to discretion. An attempt is made to analyze the approaches of legal scholars to the concepts of “defect of law”, as well as related concepts of “defect of a normative legal act”, “defect of legislation”, “error in law”. Attention is focused on the relationship between the concept of “defect in law” and “quality of law”. In relation to individual branch legal sciences, studies of individual defects have been conducted, however, a unified approach to understanding the essence of the relevant legal phenomenon has not been formed. When analyzing the approaches of various researchers to the essence of the defect in law, it should be noted that the authors point to a violation of the requirements related to the quality of the regulatory legal act. A scientific analysis is carried out of the fact that a law enforcement decision based on various legal defects is associated with discretion. The origins of the concept of “defect in law” are considered, since for the first time it began to be used in industry legal sciences. The point of view on the allocation of an expansive and restrictive understanding of the “defect in law” in scientific circulation is interesting. In the first case, we are talking about the state of legal norms, when the regulation of public relations leads to a violation of the optimal balance of the interests of the state, society and the individual. In the second case, we mean legal regulation, the quality level of which is low, and in this regard, infringement of interests occurs. The article presents the Author's definition of “the defect of discretion in law”, as well as the signs of this concept. The criteria of imperfection, according to the Author, should include gaps in law, conflicts of legal norms, uncertainty of legal regulation, violations of the requirements of legal technology in the construction of texts of normative acts, irrational placement of norms in the legal system, excessive duplication of rules of conduct in acts of different legal force, excessive legal regulation. The signs of the sought concept also include: finding a defect of discretion in the law in a specific substantive element of a legal act, as well as the social harmfulness of the defect affecting discretion in the application of law.
The Concept and Criteria of Insignificance of the Committed Administrative Offense
Authors: Popov A. V. , Fomina I. A.
Published: June 2023

The problem of applying the insignificance of administrative offenses is relevant in the scientific community. Many authors, such as Yu. P. Solovey, E. V. Sergeeva, O. V. Derbina, L. Ch. Kupeeva and others, in different years raised issues related to the insignificance of offenses in their scientific activities. The Authors studied the objectivity of the application of insignificance to the formal elements of offenses, the effectiveness of oral remarks, and possible criteria for recognizing an offense as insignificant. The appraisal of the concepts enshrined in the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation (hereinafter referred to as the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation) makes it possible to ensure the flexibility of legislation in sentencing. However, in the particular case under consideration, evaluativeness and the lack of clear criteria for the use of insignificance contribute to the blurring of the boundaries of responsibility. The results of the statistical study cited by the Authors show that for 2019–2021. a significant number of proceedings on administrative offenses were terminated precisely on the basis of Art. 2.9 of the Code of the Russian Federation on Administrative Offenses, which indicates the importance of the criteria by which the possibility of applying insignificance and the conditions to be analyzed by an official of the relevant administrative body or a judge is assessed. As a criterion of insignificance of administrative offenses, the objective side of which is characterized by the receipt of income or damage, the Authors propose to use the amount of such income or damage. According to the Authors, the classification of an administrative tort as insignificant is possible when receiving income or causing damage that does not exceed 1/30 of the subsistence minimum in the whole of the Russian Federation per capita, provided for the calendar year in which the administrative offense was committed (for 2023 – 480 rubles). Given the above, the Authors indicate the need for legislative consolidation of the categories of administrative offenses and circumstances in the commission or occurrence of which the application of the legal institution of insignificance is unacceptable. One of these circumstances, at the suggestion of the Authors, is the absence of a person held liable when considering a case of an administrative offense.
Theory of Administrative Discretion: the Stages of Formation
Authors: Sherstoboev O. N.
Published: June 2023

Administrative discretion is an important construction of modern administrative law, the formation of which in many respects can be viewed as a “struggle” to limit the discretionary powers of the subjects of state administration. It is well known that good governance would be impossible without administrative discretion. There are four stages in the development of the modern theory of administrative discretion and each stage was devoted to one aspect of this one but these stages did not coincide chronologically and developed in parallel. They had a different methodology, which was used by the founders and followers of the approaches prevailing at each stage. The first stage started in France and formed by the 18th century. This related to the concept of prudent governance exercised prudent officials who were ruled by enlightened monarch. Their decisions were not reviewed by the courts. The principle of reasonable is the modern result of this stage – an absolutely unreasonable administrative act is null and void. The second stage developed in parallel with the first one but formed by the 19th century. Administrative discretion was formed as legal concept on this stage, and it was presented as free discretion, which also could not be a subject to judicial review. The third stage, characterized by competition between administrative justice and free discretion, took place at the end of the 19th and the middle of the 20th. Judicial possibilities for reviewing discretionary acts gradually expanded, criteria for evaluating such acts were created. These criteria were incorporated into the laws and legal judicial positions after the fourth stage began. The creative side of discretion has become a very important part of this legal construction, administrative discretion at this stage is defined as a way of laws concretizing. Nowadays, the third and fourth stages are developing in parallel in Russia. It should be noted that the Russian administrative law doctrine was formed as a common doctrine Civil Law system. Russian authors always used the methodology of Civil Law system, developed it, but they paid attention to the specifics of our administrative law, our governing and historical development. Nevertheless, Russian doctrine needs more research in order to create more legally formalized administrative discretion. As a result, the legislature and courts should receive academic decisions suitable for implementation.
Exhaustion of Exclusive Rights to Computer Programs Under the Laws of Russia, the USA, the EU, China and India
Authors: Golovin К. S.
Published: June 2023

This article provides a comparative analysis of the doctrine of exhaustion of exclusive rights in respect of computer programs with a focus on the legislation of Russia, the United States, the European Union, China and India. The purpose of this study is to examine the impact of the doctrine of exhaustion of exclusive rights on intellectual property and propose potential solutions to address problems that may arise. The laws in force in Russia concerning the exhaustion of rights to computer programs are discussed, and it is noted that they are restraining in nature and limit the distribution of computer programs to the first distribution under contracts for the complete alienation of the tangible medium. Although these laws are aimed at protecting the rights of authors and right holders, they also impede the free distribution of computer programs, making it difficult for consumers to access them. Therefore, the article proposes changes in the Russian legislation to ensure free distribution of computer programs, including the possibility of leasing, secondary sale of electronic copies and exchange. It is also proposed to reduce the requirement to recognize the introduction into civil circulation, because the existing wording “sufficient to meet reasonable public needs, based on the nature of the work” is vague and contrary to current international practice. I believe that these changes will help mitigate or circumvent current or future Western sanctions. The analysis underlines the need to improve Russian legislation with respect to the doctrine of exhaustion of exclusive rights. By adopting more flexible laws, Russia can facilitate the free distribution of computer programs while protecting the rights of authors and rightsholders. Such improvements will increase access to software and foster innovation and creativity in the digital age.

Authors: AKTAŞ REYHAN Feyza , DAĞLI Elif
Published: June 2023

Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the satisfaction levels and related factors related to the positive birth experience of women.
Methods: This study, using a quantitative approach, is a descriptive and cross-sectional study based on the general survey model. The sample of the study consisted of 276 women who gave normal birth in the gynecology and obstetrics services 24 hours after giving birth in a training and research hospital in a province in the south of Turkey between 17.05.2022 and 29.12.2022. The study included postpartum women who were over 37 weeks of gestation, had a healthy fetus, had no complications during pregnancy-birth-postpartum period, were healthy, could speak, understand and write Turkish, had no communication barriers and volunteered to participate in the study. The data were collected face-to-face with a questionnaire prepared using the literature. A series of chi-square analyzes were conducted to examine whether overall satisfaction with the birth experience differed depending on the characteristics of childbirth care.
Results: The ages of the women ranged from 19 to 42 (mean: 28.67±5.25). 54.3% of the participants are under the age of 30, 46% are secondary school graduates and 47.8% are working. 52.2% stated that they were generally satisfied with the birth experience. It is observed that there are significant differences between the groups in all cases except when women are given the freedom to eat and drink during the contraction period and the baby is given to the lap as soon as the baby is born (p < .001).
Conclusion: In our study, it was determined that more than half of the women were generally satisfied with the birth experience. The characteristics of the room where the mothers spent in labor, accompanying the birth of a person they want, receiving one-to-one midwife support, exposure of the personnel to negative behavior, being involved in the decision-making process at birth, receiving understandable information from the health personnel, respecting the privacy of being allowed to move in labor, ensuring the safety of the baby's life It was determined that providing breastfeeding in the first hour affected the satisfaction of the mothers. It is recommended to conduct large-scale, comprehensive studies evaluating the effect of positive birth experience on maternal satisfaction.

Authors: SİNAN Hulya , UZUNOĞLU Emel , UĞUR Mediha , AVCİ Esin , AKDEMİR Cihangir , DİREKEL Şahin
Published: June 2023

Objective: The aim of our study was to determine the sensitivity and specificity of rapid antigen and Real-Time Reverse Transcription Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR) tests which are widely used today in patients presenting with Covid-19 complaints and to evaluate these tests’ routine usability.
Methods: Two samples were taken from oropharyngeal and nasopharyngeal from 100 patients (50 women, 50 men) who applied to the Covid-19 outpatient clinic of our hospital between April and May 2022. The patients attended to the study were volunteers between the ages of 18-90. One of the samples was studied with the BNG SARS-CoV-2 Antigen Rapid Test (Saliva) and evaluated with the naked eye after 15 minutes according to the company's recommendations. The other sample was studied with RT-PCR on BIO-RAD CFX Real Time System with DSCoronex Covid-19 QPCR Test Kit. The epidemiological data and clinical conditions of the patients were determined by questionnaires. The age, gender, symptoms (fever, cough, headache, diarrhea, sore throat, shortness of breath, loss of taste and smell, myalgia) of the patient and the day of the symptoms were noted down.
Results: It is known that technically rapid antigen tests generally have lower sensitivity and higher specificity than RT-PCR. In our study, the sensitivity was 71% and the specificity was 100%. The Accuracy (Diagnostic Value) rate of the rapid antigen test was determined as 90%. Our results suggest that rapid antigen tests are inexpensive and practical tests to reduce transmission, especially in epidemics however they should be selected carefully by the health care authorities.
Conclusion: The prevalence of self-reported FA based on web-based survey in Eastern Black Sea residents is relatively high and specific to the region.
Los indigenismos en la lexicografía guatemalteca decimonónica: el caso de los Vicios del lenguaje y provincialismos de Guatemala de Batres Jáuregui
Authors: Ramírez Luengo José Luis
Published: June 2023

Aunque el guatemalteco Antonio Batres Jáuregui constituye un nombre de primera importancia dentro de la etapa normativista de la lexicografía centroamericana, todavía no ha recibido, por parte de los investigadores, la atención que se les ha prestado a otros como, por ejemplo, Gagini o Membreño. En tal sentido, este trabajo pretende analizar los indigenismos recogidos en su Vicios del lenguaje y provincialismos de Guatemala (Ciudad de Guatemala: Encuadernación y Tipografía Nacional, 1892) con el propósito de conocer la incidencia que tienen estas voces en la obra mencionada; de este modo, se atenderá a cuestiones como el peso de tales vocablos en el total de los elementos censurados, su origen etimológico, los campos léxicos a los que pertenecen y los juicios de valor explícitos que a este respecto aparecen en las páginas del volumen mencionado, en un intento de comprender de manera más profunda no solo las ideas lingüísticas que sustentan la reflexión de Batres Jaúregui, sino también, de forma más general, la valoración que de las lenguas autóctonas hace la lexicografía centroamericana de finales del siglo XIX.
Las construcciones de adverbio locativo + posesivo: el caso de la provincia de Jaén, España
Authors: Nagy Vilmos
Published: June 2023

Este trabajo trata de las construcciones de adverbio locativo + posesivo (p. e. detrás tuya), consideradas no normativas en español. Recientemente, el tema ha suscitado mucho interés entre los estudiosos de gramática, aunque todavía hacen falta más investigaciones para tener una visión clara sobre el fenómeno. En nuestro trabajo, tras un exhaustivo repaso bibliográfico, abordamos el uso de estas construcciones en la provincia de Jaén para analizarlo según varios factores. Para ello, hemos recurrido a la ayuda de un formulario de Google que han rellenado 64 estudiantes universitarios nativos de la provincia de Jaén. Así, hemos obtenido un grupo de informantes homogéneo respecto a la edad, procedencia geográfica y nivel sociocultural. Los factores que tenemos en cuenta a lo largo del análisis son, por una parte, extralingüísticos (sexo) y, por otra parte, intralingüísticos (tipo de adverbio, género y persona gramatical del referente, etc.). Además, también hemos empleado un ejercicio de percepción de la norma para medir el grado de aceptación que los hablantes muestran hacia el fenómeno en cuestión.

Authors: Troyan Irina , Kravchenko Larisa , Gindes Elena
Published: June 2023

The article is devoted to study of the conceptual aspects of digital inequality. The authors conducted an interdisciplinary analysis of this category. They reviewed the main approaches to understanding digital inequality. The definition of digital inequality has been clarified as a difference in access to digital opportunities in social, economic, political-demographic, cultural, educational and other areas that exist or deepen as a result of incomplete, uneven or insufficient access to information and communication, computer, telecommunications and digital technologies.There were examined conceptual components of the digital inequality: socio-economic access, competencies, knowledge and skills, psychological and motivational factors, digital literacy and culture, price, speed, content and quality of information and communication technologies and digital resources, infrastructure, institutional structure and political structure. The authors express and substantiate their position concerning the significant role of the digital divide in higher education in the formation of human capital and improvement of the population quality of life. It is proposed to understand the digital inequality in higher education as differences in access, quality of use and in the resulting effects of digital resources, information and communication technologies and the Internet in the learning process. There was made analysis of the digital divide in higher education in the context of a three-level research model for this category. The authors considered the opportunities and barriers to digitalization of higher education in the Russian Federation. They also identified characteristic drivers of the growing digital inequality and directions for reducing it the field of higher education, and namely: infrastructural, socially motivational, institutional.

The article considers a relatively new aspect of the problem of sparsely populated Russia, associated with the possibility of increasing the life expectancy of the population. The ways to solve this problem are connected with the need to achieve the goal of the national project “Healthcare”. The authors show that in addition to improving the functioning of the national health system, human behavior is of great importance — his individual approach to preserving his own health through health-saving practices. In this regard, it is of theoretical and practical interest to compare two vectors of behavior — compliance with the principles of a healthy lifestyle (HLS) and biohacking. The results of the study were an analysis of the values of the indicator of healthy life expectancy of Russians by macro-regions (federal districts) for the three-year period 2019–2021, which included the beginning of the coronavirus pandemic. The analysis made it possible to identify the most “prosperous” and “least prosperous” regions according to the noted indicator. Over the three-year period, a quantitative and qualitative analysis of the trends in the spread of healthy lifestyle among Russians was carried out. The principles of biohacking that are more difficult for an individual to implement are given and its main audiences are noted. It is shown that biohacking, in the presence of many common features with the principles of healthy lifestyle, is a “superstructure” over healthy lifestyle. The conclusions of the article note the role of behavioral aspects in the preferences for choosing health-saving practices. An organizational approach is possible in relation to healthy lifestyle and biohacking, while it is necessary to assess the risks of using the latter for Russia. In order to expand the audience practicing the implementation of the strategy of health-saving behavior, the policy of the State, implemented in particular by medical personnel, is significant. The culture of physical health, which ensures an increase in labor productivity, is a part of the general culture of the nation.

Every year the number of registered HIV-infected people is increasing, which by the end of 2021 made 851.8 thousand people. In this connection the organization of work on prevention and treatment of HIV infection is relevant. The survey of 6313 representatives of the key group, i.e. clients of HIV servicing NPOs — Russians (4793 people) and citizens of other countries (1520 people) identified the main risk groups, for which it is necessary to work out the principal activity strategies connected with treatment and prevention. Every tenth client of the Charitable Foundation is HIV-infected and hepatitis C positive, every fourth has had or is having sexually transmitted infection (STI), and 4.6% of men and 1.4% of women have syphilis. The group is characterized by risky behavior in terms of HIV infection, STIs (and other dangerous diseases), including: drug use (17.8% of men — injecting and/or 46.1% of women — non-injecting), prostitution (13.6% of men and 15.4% of women), consume sex services (16.6% of men and 5.0% of women). Based on analytical and mathematical methods, eight basic conditional groups of patients of the Foundation were identified that will allow us to develop work strategies depending on a number of basic socio-demographic characteristics (age, sexual orientation), attainability of clients, morbidity, risk behavior and attitudes regarding morbidity, treatment and prevention. In particular, the most difficult groups of clients to work with at the Foundation have been identified: legal and illegal migrants and men involved in prostitution. What all of these groups have in common is that they depend on their employer and their priority is to keep their jobs, for the sake of which they are willing to sacrifice their health and lead deviant lifestyles.
Gender features of developing financial literacy of Russian university students

Published: June 2023

The article shows the relevance of studying gender differences in the formation of financial literacy of student youth. A review of studies on various aspects of the formation of financial literacy of Russians is given. In particular, student youth as a group of the population that makes up the development potential of Russia was considered. The article justifies the need to study the processes of forming financial literacy of student youth during their studies based on the future roles and tasks of the life of men and women in Russia. There are identified the main factors that form financial literacy of Russian university students: setting life goals and priorities for life activities of youth; planning and implementation of personal student budget; culture of financial behavior. It has been established that the student youth of Russian universities for the most part has significant reserves to improve the financial literacy. The differences in students’ gender characteristics — male and female — in the process of forming their financial literacy are presented. In particular, girls, due to a more responsible approach to education, are ready to spend additional time for their development in the financial sphere by attending elective classes. Female students (55.4%) are more interested in studying personal budget planning technologies and are more confident in the importance of forming their life goals already at the stage of studying at the university, while more than half of male students (53.5%) do not even think about forming life goals. Female students are more focused on strict accounting of income and expenses, among male students the practice of maintaining clear accounting of income and expenses is less common: 23.5% of them do not keep records, do not know how much money they had and how much was spent for a month. Female students are almost one and a half times more likely than male students first to postpone something for large purchases, and to spend the remained money on current needs. 46.7% of students do not save money, among them there are four times more boys than girls. The identified gender features should be used in organizing the educational process in universities, within teaching disciplines aimed at forming the universal competence of students — economic culture, including financial literacy.
Socio-cultural features of the population of the Russian Arctic regions

Published: June 2023

The article presents the results of a sociological study of the population of two Arctic regions of Russia using the actual tools for measuring six Hofstede’s ethnometric indicators (“masculinity”, “power distance”, “collectivism/individualism”, “uncertainty avoidance”, “longterm orientations”, “indulgence” at the individual level. The field stage of the study was carried out in October-November 2021 in the Arctic territories of Arkhangelsk oblast and the Komi Republic. The tasks of identifying indicators of the cultural specificity of the population of these territories, differences in the values of ethnometric indicators between separate social groups (gender, age, income level), as well as in the inter-territorial context, were solved. The results of the study show that there is a statistically significant positive relationship between the level of income and the values of the indicators “long-term orientations”, “masculinity” and “power distance” — the higher the value of these ethnometric indicators, the higher the individual’s income. It has been established that the population of the Arctic territories of the Komi Republic is characterized by a higher level of “collectivism”, “masculinity” and “uncertainty avoidance” than the population of Arkhangelsk oblast. The population of the Arctic territories of Arkhangelsk oblast, in turn, is characterized by higher values of the “permissibility of satisfaction of desires” indicator. A hypothesis is formulated about the mechanism of spatially determined socio-economic selection of cultural patterns of individuals, implemented in the mechanisms of human capital reproduction. This hypothesis needs to be operationalized and verified in the course of further research. The results obtained can be used in solving a wide range of tasks of public administration, in particular, for regional specification of State programs to stimulate entrepreneurial activity of the population and activities in the field of NGOs. The process of adaptation of the toolkit and its verification deserves a detailed consideration in a separate publication.
