Relations between Secular and Religious Mind-set as a Theological Problem: Social Risks, Challenges of Digitization and Establishment of a Civil Dialogue
Authors: Orlov Mikhail , Ivanov Andrey , Danilov Sergey
Published: January 2024

The problem of relations between secular and religious beliefs is topical in modern Russian society; its importance is largely determined by the growing internal risks and threats, including extremist and protest movements, the spread of crisis patterns of spirituality, and citizens’ involvement in destructive quasi-religious practices. Preservation of Russia’s spiritual and moral culture is one of the priorities of the national security, a guarantee of national sustainability and stability in the face of the expansion of socio-cultural practices and ideological narratives alien to Russian traditions and values. This study focuses on the search for constructive frameworks for cooperation between the state, religious institutions and society. Research team’s work resulted in the following achievements: identified historical and philosophical perspectives on secularism; justified choice of discourse analysis as a methodological basis for the study of secularism and religiousness; defined the idea of secularism as a complex interrelations of secular and religious worldviews; outlined the boundaries of understanding secularism in the context of theological discourse; identified and described risk areas of public discussions on the role of religion in a modern scientific space; identified negative scenarios of development of relations between the state, church and society; analysed the impact of the digital environment on the attitude of young people to the problems of faith, religion, morality; analysed the vectors of transformation of the boundaries of religiousness and secularity in the digital environment; developed a classification of media sources publishing religious content, described their main strategies, identified potential risks and threats; developed recommendations for public authorities to assess and monitor the Internet environment for destructive religious trends. The results were reflected in the developed consensus model of inter-confessional relations, aimed at maintaining the spirit of partnership and trust between representatives of secular and religious worldviews in the conditions of modern post-secular society, the promotion of willingness of state, religious and social institutions to cooperate on socially important issues.

“Genghis Khans” of the 17th-18th centuries: between politics and religion
Authors: Kitinov Baatr Uchaevich
Published: January 2024

The Mongolian peoples traditionally associated crucial events and processes with the name of Genghis Khan. Nonetheless, that name acquired a nominal significance in one sphere, specifically as a title or an auxiliary name to the first, where it became a special name. The Genghis Khan name itself held a holy and tabooed implication that guided its subsequent realization. The study aims to investigate the impact of religion on the utilisation of Genghis Khan’s title by the Mongolian leaders during the XVII- XVIII centuries. The study focuses on two leaders of Mongolian peoples, the Chakhar in the east and the Oirat-Hoshut in the west, to examine the uniformity and diversity of interpreting and implementing this name as a title. They were Ligdan and Lkhavzan, with Ligdan being a direct descendant of Genghis Khan and Lkhavzan was considered to be a descendant of Khabutu, the younger brother of Genghis Khan. The author came to the following conclusions: such use of Genghis Khan’s name became possible due to the influence of a number of factors that actualised Genghis Khan’s name: 1) the struggle against separatism under the influence of external force; 2) the desire to “start anew”, to lead a “new era of prosperity”; 3) the need to identify oneself as a true leader under the increasing role of religion. The scientific contribution is to determine the multidimensional meaning of Genghis Khan’s name; its use as a title had common grounds and characteristics, and in general had the expected (albeit in the short term) results.
Background and the beginning of trade relations on the Silk Road
Authors: Liulina Anastasia G. , Malikova Ekaterina A.
Published: January 2024

The relevance to research the beginning of trade relations on the ancient Silk Road was determined by the growing interest in the “revival” of the Silk Road. China is striving to develop the concept of “One Belt, One Road”, namely the “Silk Road Economic Belt”, which aims is a new transport system, that will improve trade relations between the countries and accelerate the supply of goods through Central Asia along the historical trade routes. This initiative is supported by many CIS states and countries whose history is directly related to the history of the Silk Road. The study of the prerequisites for the formation and initial stage of trade relations along the “Route” will allow us to assess the experience and potential of the regions related to this issue for building new effective models of cooperation.
Bogatyrs and Rulers: Folklore Characters in the Ethnic Identity and Religious Practices of the Vyatka Mari
Authors: Ustyantsev Herman Yu.
Published: January 2024

The author examines the mythological aspect of the entoregional identity of the modern Mari population in the Kirov oblast’ (the Vyatka, the Urzhum-Vyatka Mari) living in the Malmyzhsky and Urzhumsky districts. The author identifies the role of heroic images in modern ethno-cultural activism and the representation of the Vyatka Mari as the main problem of the study. Due to the multidimensional aspect of the problem, the article includes thematic sub-items: Features of the ethnic and religious identity of the Vyatka Mari - Images of folklore rulers in the perception of local residents - Legendary rulers in ethno-cultural activism and commemorative practices - Sacralization of folklore characters. The author considers this problem on the basis of the field materials (interview texts) collected during his expeditions to the Kirov oblast’ in 2015, 2017, 2021, and the regional media. In a multicultural region, inhabited by different ethnic groups, the Mari represent their identity through festive and sacred practices, as well as the veneration of local legendary rulers and heroes: Princes Akpatyr, Akmazik, Boltush (Poltysh) and others. Folklore heroes are objects of the religious cult of the Mari traditional religion, which is manifested in the ethnoregional self-consciousness of the Mari population. Legendary heroes are perceived by the local population as real historical characters. It is revealed that the beliefs in reality of the Mari heroes reflect the idea of the “golden age” of the history of the Vyatka Mari and their heroized past. The images of Boltush, Akpatyr are actively broadcast through the media, the ethnic component in education, local history literature. Thanks to the efforts of local activists, new objects of the cultural landscape emerge in the Malmyzhsky district - monuments at the sites of the symbolic burials of the Mari rulers. The conclusion is formulated that cultural activism, which appeals to the images of Mari folklore, plays a significant role in marking the ethnoregional identity of the Vyatka Mari people. In the text of the article the characters of the Mari folklore of Vyatka are considered in the context of identity. The obtained result allows to apply this theoretical framework for the study of folklore images in relation to the identities of ethnographic groups of the Mari and other peoples of the Volga region. The article is based on the dissertation “The system of mythological characters in the representation of the identities of modern Mari” for the degree of Candidate of Historical Sciences, defended in 2022 in the N.N. Miklukho-Maklay Institute of Ethnology and Anthropology of the Russian Academy of Sciences.
Establishment of the System of Sanitary and Medical Services for Workers of the Caspian-Volga Fisheries in the Second Half of the XIX - Early XX Century
Authors: Vinogradov Sergey V. , Eshchenko Yulia G.
Published: January 2024

The authors examine the history of the establishment of the system of sanitary inspection and medical care for workers of the Caspian-Volga fisheries. There is considered the fishing legislation of the XIX - early XX century. It is stated that, despite the approved rules, fishery workers actually had no qualified medical care, the provision of which was entrusted to the owners of the fishing business. The authors come to the conclusion that the supervision of the sanitary condition of the fisheries was not effective due to a number of reasons: unresolved personnel problems, the large territorial expanses of sanitary areas with a lack of vehicles for sanitary doctors, the difficulties of bureaucratic interaction between the Department of Fisheries and Seal Fisheries, regional authorities and owners of the fishing business, etc. The shortcomings of the sanitary and medical services for fisheries, as well as the specific geographical location and natural and climatic conditions of the Astrakhan province contributed to the wide spread of various epidemic diseases. Due to the lack of the public free healthcare system and qualified medical personnel, there emerged infectious diseases, which led to high mortality among fishery workers.
“Voluntary Mobilization” in July 1941: Recruitment of Divisions of People's Militia of Moscow
Authors: Bezugolny Alexey Yu.
Published: January 2024

The author presents an analysis of the peculiarities of manning divisions of the People's militia, formed in Moscow in July 1941. Despite the abundance of literature on the history of the Moscow militia, this aspect of its history has not been studied enough. The research is based on archival sources: both documents of the military department and on documents of the Commission on the History of the Great Patriotic War at the Academy of Sciences of the USSR, which have been actively introduced into scientific circulation in recent years. The content of the regulatory framework of the militia, the formation of the administrative and command vertical, the production and territorial principle of recruitment and related features of the selection of commanding and enlisted personnel are considered. Special attention is paid to the analysis of voluntary and mobilization aspects of recruitment, as well as propaganda support of the campaign. Conclusions are drawn that the formation of militia was carried out in the shortest possible time set by the state, however, being organized as a typical mass campaign of that time, it had many drawbacks, among which the quality of personnel selection occupied one of the most prominent places and then required numerous adjustments that took several months.

Relevance . Macrophages are the leading regulatory cell-lineage taking part in reparative processes in mammals, and the liver is no exception. The ratio of monocyte migration, proliferation and death of macrophages during liver regeneration requires further studies. The aim was to quantify the intensity of monocyte migration, cell proliferation and apoptosis of resident liver macrophages after its 70 % resection in a mouse model. Materials and Methods. We performed 70 % liver resection in sexually mature male BalbC mice. Cells of liver monocyte-macrophage system were obtained by magnetic sorting by marker F4/80. The immunophenotype of the isolated cells was further studied by cytofluorimetry, the level of proliferation and cell death, the content of cyclins and P53 was determined by western blot. Results and Discussion . It was found that after partial hepatectomy there is a marked migration of monocytes/macrophages positive for Ly6C and CD11b markers to the liver, the migration process starts already in the first day after the operation. On the same terms there is a rise in proliferative activity of macrophages, established by Ki67 marker, the peak of proliferation - 3 days after partial hepatectomy. A significant increase in the number of dying macrophages was found early after liver resection. Conclusion . The obtained data indicate that liver regeneration in mammals on the model in mice is accompanied by proliferation migration and cell death of macrophages. Taking into account the immunophenotype of macrophages, we can conclude that Ly6C+ blood monocytes migrate to the liver, and resident macrophages participate in proliferation. The obtained data confirm the universality of the course of reparative processes in mammals.

Relevance. Abnormal epigenetic regulation of genes responsible for the development of the embryo and placenta is associated with many pregnancy pathologies. Aim. The aim of this work was to analyze the prevalence of abnormal methylation of the PRDM16 and PTPRN2 genes in chorionic villi of spontaneous abortions with normal karyotype and with the most frequent aneuploidies (trisomy 16 and monosomy X). Materials and Methods. The methylation profile was evaluated using targeted bisulfite massive parallel sequencing in chorionic villi of induced abortions (n = 10), spontaneous abortions with normal karyotype (n = 39), trisomy 16 (n = 17) and monosomy X (n = 20) and peripheral blood lymphocytes of healthy volunteers (n = 6). Results and Discussion. In analyzed genes, differential methylation of individual CpG sites was found in chorionic villi of spontaneous abortions. Despite the absence of significant differences between the groups in the average level of methylation in analyzed gene regions, abnormal methylation of the PRDM16 and PTPRN2 genes were detected for 33 % and 5 % of spontaneous abortions, respectively, indicating a high incidence of epigenetic abnormalities in these genes in the chorionic villi of spontaneous abortions. The level of methylation of the PRDM16 gene significantly correlated with the level of methylation of the retrotransposon LINE-1, which indicates the generalized nature of methylation disorders in spontaneous abortions. Finally, the level of methylation of the PTPRN2 gene depended on the age of mothers of spontaneous abortions with monosomy X, which raises the question of the influence of maternal factors on the methylation profile in this group of spontaneous abortions. Conclusion. The results indicate that epigenetic disorders of the PRDM16 gene may be associated with spontaneous termination of pregnancy in the first trimester.
Pretend Play and Project-Based Learning as Factors in the Development of Preschool Children
Authors: Veraksa Nikolay E. , Veraksa Aleksandr N. , Plotnikova Valeria A.
Published: January 2024

In psychology, playing is traditionally considered the most developing form of preschool children’s activity. Nowadays, despite the large amount of research demonstrating the significant impact of pretend play on the psychological development of the preschoolers, project-based learning is widespread in kindergartens. Therefore, the purpose of this work is to determine whether it is enough for the successful development of the preschool children to include them in pretend play or whether it is important to use other educational technologies as well. According to the cultural-historical and activity-based approaches in the educational psychology, the key features of play and project-based learning are identified as fundamental for the development of the preschoolers. Based on the identified key features, the authors conduct a comparative analysis of play and project-based learning in order to determine their fundamental differences. The results of the analysis show that these types of activities have their own developmental tools: an imaginary situation (in play) and a space for children’s realization (for project-based activity). It is also demonstrated that inclusion in pretend play involves a process orientation caused by the underdevelopment of the operational sphere in the preschoolers, while project-based learning is result-oriented activity aimed at creating a socially significant product. Finally, an essential point in play and project-based activity is associated with the role of the adult. In play, the child is independent, being the subject of play activity. In project activities, the child is the author of an idea, with the adult being the child’s interpreter. The research shows the fundamental differences between pretend play and project-based activity for the development of the preschoolers, which should be taken into account when working with children of this age.
The Influence of Various Types of Play on the Development of Coherent Monologue Speech in Children Aged 5-6 Years
Authors: Oshchepkova Ekaterina S. , Sukhikh Vera L. , Shatskaya Arina N.
Published: January 2024

Coherent monologue speech is one of the main factors determining both school performance and social success of children. Therefore, problems related to methods and techniques for developing coherent monologue speech in children still remain relevant. It is often recommended to use various types of play activities (i.e., games) for this purpose. However, the question remains whether all of them have an equally positive impact on the development of coherent speech in such an aspect as its macrostructure (coherence, cohesion, semantic completeness, narrative structure). For this reason, the purpose of this study is to find out how different types of play affect the speech development in children of senior preschool age. According to our preliminary hypothesis, the development of semantic elements of a story is most influenced by role-playing games. Our study involved 220 preschoolers ( M = 60.84 months; SD = 4.14 months) who were randomly assigned to seven groups in which they either participated in a series of games of a certain type, or listened to additional stories, or were not exposed to experimental treatment at all. Before and after the exposure, the children made up stories based on a series of pictures. The resulting stories were evaluated in terms of their macrostructure. The groups were then compared in terms of the impact that different types of play interaction had on the development of the macrostructure of coherent speech. It was found that the best effect was shown by the role-playing games, and, first of all, ‘directed’ ones. These results allow a more reasonable approach to the use of games for the development of coherent monologue speech in children aged 5-6 years.
Preschoolers’ Executive Function Development and Maternal Birth Experience: The Moderating Role of Depression and the Mode of Delivery
Authors: Yakupova Vera A. , Suarez Anna D. , Shraibman Liubov A.
Published: January 2024

Early executive functioning is a crucial precursor to the future cognitive and behavioral development of children. Given that the mother is typically the child’s primary caregiver, her maternal behavior may be an important factor that either facilitates or hinders the child’s cognitive development, especially if the mother suffers from depression. It is important to analyze these effects, taking into consideration the mother’s birth experience. This study focuses on assessing the child’s executive functions, the mother’s concomitant depression and her birth experience, including the mode of delivery. The results obtained have shown no significant relationship between the executive function performance and the mother’s concomitant depression. However, significant relationships have been found between the child’s executive function performance and complications during the mother’s pregnancy, birth and mode of delivery. The regression analysis shows that cesarean birth reduces the child’s overall executive function performance by 1 point, while the data of the moderation analysis including the mode of delivery and mother’s depression are not statistically significant. The total executive performance score is largely related to the mother’s educational level. The mother’s perinatal depression may have a stronger adverse effect on the child’s development than her concomitant depression. A higher level of the mother’s education may be a protective factor that could potentially offset the cesarean birth effect.
Family Socialization of Adolescents Convicted of Crimes of Varying Severity
Authors: Nesterova Albina A. , Levin Leonid M.
Published: January 2024

Features of family functioning and parent-child interaction affect the success of the socialization process, because parental attitudes and habitual ways of behavior are subsequently reproduced by children in further interaction in society. Aspects of family socialization of adolescents who have committed crimes of varying severity have been little studied in Russia. The purpose of the study is to determine the nature of interaction with parents and the features of family socialization of male adolescents convicted of crimes of varying severity. The study involved 280 adolescents, of whom 120 were serving sentences in juvenile correctional facilities, 80 were given and were registered with the penitentiary inspection, 80 were studying in educational institutions in Moscow and had never been held brought before the law for offenses. The average age of the participants was 15.8±0.8 years, all the respondents were male. As main methods the authors used interviews and analysis of personal files as well as a number of psychodiagnostic methods, including: The Scale of Tactics of Behavior in Parent-Child Conflict (adapted by I.A. Furmanova); A Questionnaire on Family Emotional Communications (A.B. Kholmogorova, S.V. Volikova, M.G. Sorokova); Unfinished Sentences Sacks - Sidney Variant (modified by T.A. Zaeko). The results of the study revealed the following reliably significant characteristics of the family socialization of convicted adolescents: living in an incomplete family, dissatisfaction with the financial situation, narcotization and alcoholization of parents, deprivation of parental rights of one of the parents, problems with the law of one of the family members, and fewer children in the family. In the families of adolescents convicted of serious crimes, there was a high level of cruelty and violence against the child on the part of the parents manifested. In the families of probationers, there was a lack of clear rules and methods of discipline, neglect of the child’s needs. The families of all the adolescents with unlawful behavior were characterized by a dysfunctional nature of communication (communication on the part of the parents was dominated by criticism, causing anxiety, prohibiting the expression of emotions, fixating on negative experiences, etc.). The information obtained in the study can be used by employees of the psychological and educational services of the penitentiary system.
Holding and Reversing the Camera Obscura
Authors: Atanasova Nataliya
Published: January 2024

The following study examines the critical interplay between ideology, mediated reality, and the role that individuals’ perceptions, beliefs, and actions play in this process. In doing so, the study delves into the examination of the way power structures and dominant narratives proceed into influencing cultural expression and, consequently, impact social action. It is thus argued that in contemporary society, the Situationist notion of “the spectacle” has replaced any understanding of reality and created a reified social world dominated by commodities that reinforce dominant ideologies and determine subjective perceptions. Furthermore, the paper addresses the impact of this mediated reality on personal subjectivity and agency. Drawing on Marx’s metaphor of the “camera obscura” as ideology, it argues for a transformative “reversal of perspective” that changes how individuals view and engage with their environment. Ultimately, this study underscores the profound impact of “the spectacle” on social relations, ideology, and perception. It argues for a transformative and creative approach that challenges individuals to resist the grasp of the spectacle, reclaim their agency, and develop new perspectives for interacting with the world. The extensions of the gaze subtly refer to the basis of economy manifested as “false consciousness” reflected by the camera obscura as an inverted image but readjusted with the tools of spectacles and mirrors within the reflective apparatus.
High technologies and artificial intelligence as driving factors in the evolution of the world financial and economic architecture
Authors: Smirnov Fedor A.
Published: January 2024

The current dynamics of the development of the world economy is gaining new momentum despite the high crisis dynamics, containing financial, economic, monetary and geopolitical parameters. The factors accelerating the transformation of the global financial and economic architecture (GFEA) are high technologies, including the digital economy and artificial intelligence. The purpose of the study is to study the dynamics of the development of high technologies and its contribution to the evolution of the global financial and economic system. To conduct this analysis, the work uses a wide range of different scientific methods and approaches - the methodology of system analysis, methods of historical, logical and comparative analysis. Technologies are analyzed according to seven groups of impact on the GFEA transformation process: blockchain technologies, 3D printing, the Internet of Things, mobile broadband, cloud computing, robotics, and artificial intelligence. Their economic contribution to the processes under study is given. The activities of the Singularity University are considered as an example of a transnational think tank engaged in scientific and applied synthesis of high technologies, analysis of their prospects and consequences of their influence on the life of society. Proceeding from this, the contours of the further development of the GFEA and the strategies of behavior in the new conditions are given.
Using an Additive Component Model to forecast the number of mergers and acquisitions in China
Authors: Reshetnikova Marina S. , Pavlov Maxim A.
Published: January 2024

Research is devoted to the topic of modeling and forecasting seasonal fluctuations in MA transactions in China to assess the short-term outlook for the movement of this sector, as well as for future studies of MA market conditions in the PRC. As a forecasting method the authors have chosen a model with an additive component that considers quarterly data on the number of MA deals in the Celestial Empire for the past 15 quarters. The order of building a model with additive component is calculation of seasonal component values, deseasonalization of data, trend calculation and evaluation of forecast accuracy. Additive model allows smoothing seasonality by separating seasonal component from time series and separating it from trend and residual component. This action is performed by subtracting the seasonal component from the original time series. Thus, seasonality is removed from the time series, and only trend and residual component remain. After extraction of the seasonal component, it can be analyzed separately and used to predict future values of the time series. It is also possible to use smoothing methods, such as moving average or exponential smoothing, to smooth the seasonality and get a smoother trend. The authors also built trend models, namely linear, power, polynomial, exponential and logarithmic trend models and chose the polynomial model that provides the highest coefficient of determination. The resulting model has made it possible to forecast the number of transactions by quarter until the end of 2023, in the aftermath of which the possible reasons for the decline in the number of mergers and acquisitions in China are described.
La frontera como invención colonial: reinterpretación sobre los límites culturales en una región de los Andes orientales de Colombia
Authors: Colorado Yepes Camilo Andrés
Published: January 2024

En el marco de los estudios sobre la organización social indígena en los Andes orientales de Colombia, se ha debatido la filiación étnica de sus pobladores para los periodos prehispánico tardío y colonial temprano (siglos XI-XVI d. C.). Los trabajos en la región han propuesto que el límite entre el altiplano cundiboyacense y el macizo de Santander figuró como una frontera entre dos grupos, conceptualizados como muyscas y guanes. No obstante, es posible criticar dicha postura, por medio de un análisis basado en la articulación de fuentes arqueológicas y documentales. Esta aproximación pone en evidencia la diversidad cultural imperante en el territorio y permite plantear que aquel modelo biétnico constituye una invención, sustentada en la óptica de los conquistadores europeos.
التكوين العلمي لابن باديس وأثره التجديدي في مجال التعليم بالجزائر: (1913-1940 ) Educational Background of Ibn Badis and Its Regenerative Impact on the Field of Education in Algeria: (1913-1940)
Authors: Bensala Youcef , Karim Ali Abdul
Published: January 2024

The research seeks to discover the renewal brought by Ibn Badis to education in Algeria through the study of his personality, academic background, significant scientific achievements both within and outside Algeria, curriculum for education, and teaching methods that he discovered beneficial and efficient for learners. Furthermore, the research intends to shed light on how Ibn Badis overcame the obstacles and challenges caused by French colonization, which denied Algerian citizens access to all types of learning, especially Arabic and Islamic education. The study takes a historical approach by examining a sizable collection of texts and pictures that represent Ibn Badis’s vision for science and education. The research leads to the conclusion that Ibn Badis’s strong scientific foundation which he achieved under the guidance of specialized academics from numerous fields and countries, had a huge impact on improving his abilities and views of the world and increasing his sense of need to refresh and enhance the educational system of his country. Additionally, he set himself apart from his contemporaries and forebears by getting around France’s restrictions through the advantage of legal loopholes to prevent the use of violence, particularly during the planning and construction phases.

Published: January 2024

The article is devoted to the destiny of the post-symbolic line of development of Russian poetry in the 1920–1930s. It is shown that acmeism which ceased to exist in 1914 already, has survived as a literary position, continued to live in the broad context of the poetry of Petersburg school. Addressing to the history of the third Poets’ workshop, to the poems by K. Vaginov, A. Radlova, detailed analysis of the poetry by N. Gumiljov, O. Mandelstam in the 1920–1930s gives the opportunity to specifically address the lines of development of the poetry of the Petersburg school, its interaction with other poetical systems.
O conceito de identificação no pensamento de Adorno: entre o ajustamento social e a resistência em direção a uma existência mais humana
Authors: Thomaz Rita de Cassia
Published: January 2024

O artigo traz uma discussão acerca da utilização do conceito de identificação por Adorno. A partir disso procuramos dar ênfase para o tema da crítica e da negação da cultura possibilitadas pela apropriação da psicanálise realizada pelo autor. A aplicação do conceito permite analisar o processo de assimilação do indivíduo no capitalismo tardio. Uma vez que a cultura é transformada em mercadoria, e assim absorve o ritmo idêntico e repetitivo da produção mecanizada, que transmite aos indivíduos através dos produtos que consomem e das celebridades com as quais se identificam. Nesse contexto, cresce o sentimento de impotência individual gerado por um modelo de organização social que dissimula suas contradições a partir da identidade do indivíduo com a cultura. E revela a união entre progresso e barbárie que promove o declínio do indivíduo como foi exposto na Dialética do Esclarecimento. Como sugere Adorno, diante da irracionalidade da cultura moderna, cabe à educação a tarefa de autorreflexão crítica e de esclarecimento dos indivíduos. De maneira a convidá-los a pensar na falsa realidade em que estão inseridos e de contrapor impotência com autonomia.

Published: January 2024

Este estudo busca verificar se a utilização de contextos inter-relacionados seria uma metodologia capaz de promover a aprendizagem significativa por meio das práticas pedagógicas que foram realizadas por intermédio dos pibidianos no clube de ciências do colégio da Polícia Militar Cpm Professor Poeta Luis Neves Cotrim, na cidade de Jequié, Bahia. A temática ‘luminescência’ foi selecionada para estudo, dada a diversidade de possibilidades para intercontextualização oferecidas por tal temática. A intercontextualidade é uma condição onde diversos contextos se interligam e interpretam em uma determinada prática social. Sob essa ótica, o uso de tal abordagem didática não visa apenas a contextualização do ensino de química, mas também enfatizar que existem situações que se interligam e se influenciam de forma mútua. Desse modo, consideramos ser esta uma maneira de mostrar aos alunos como é importante o conhecimento científico para compreensão da vida cotidiana nos mais diferentes aspectos. Partindo desse pressuposto, o artigo foi estruturado da seguinte forma: uma revisão da literatura sobre intercontextualidade, construção de conhecimento, luminescência e o estudo de química. Em seguida, está descrita a metodologia utilizada na condução da oficina apresentada em planos de aula e na coleta de dados por meio de um questionário qualitativo aplicado aos alunos. Os resultados da análise dos dados são apresentados na seção subsequente, seguidos por uma discussão das interações desses resultados. Por fim, é possível concluir que a abordagem utilizada foi capaz de apresentar relações entre contextos, criando oportunidades de aprendizagem para o aluno, sendo possível relacionar o conhecimento científico com o saber cotidiano.
Concepções dos alunos da terceira série sobre a química e o cientista: um estudo qualitativo
Authors: Mota Sayonara de Araújo , Santana Beatriz dos Santos , Costa Olívia Maria Bastos
Published: January 2024

Esse trabalho é parte de uma pesquisa desenvolvida para um trabalho de conclusão de curso, realizado na Universidade Estadual de Feira de Santana. Foi defendido e aprovado em 16 de junho de 2023. O estudo aborda a importância das aulas de química contextualizadas para a formação social e crítica dos alunos, destacando como ainda temos um ensino tradicional e descontextualizado. Tivemos como objetivo investigar as concepções que os alunos que estão saindo do ensino médio possuem sobre a química. Dessa forma, a pesquisa foi desenvolvida amparada numa perspectiva de abordagem qualitativa, utilizando questionários aplicados a uma turma de terceiro ano do ensino médio, no final do ano letivo. As questões buscavam investigar as primeiras associações que os alunos faziam ao pensar na palavra “química” e “cientista”, por exemplo, e de que maneira entendiam seu papel e importância na sociedade. Os resultados revelaram que os alunos associaram a química principalmente a experimentos e fórmulas, demonstrando uma visão empírico-indutivista. Além disso, muitos não conseguem identificar o papel do químico na sociedade, evidenciando a falta de compreensão da contribuição social da química. Nesse sentido, os resultados alertam para a necessidade de um debate mais crítico sobre como o ensino de ciências/química vem sendo desenvolvido nas nossas escolas. Assim, a pesquisa destaca a importância de continuar discutindo e desenvolvendo abordagens pedagógicas que ajudem a quebrar as visões tradicionais e promovam um ensino de química mais contextualizado e socialmente relevante, que relacionem a ciência com a vida cotidiana dos alunos e contribuam para a formação cidadã e crítica.

The purpose of this study is to understand the context of young people's lives and obtain implications for preparing individual and customized stress management plans by deriving stress types of young people showing different levels of stress according to their personal socio-economic situation through cluster analysis and verifying differences in leisure activity types before and after COVID-19.
Methods To this end, 7,278 university students who responded to the main and supplementary surveys in the 3rd and 4th years of the Korea Education and Employment Panel Survey II (KEEP) were subjected to K-means cluster analysis, paired sample T-test, and χ2 test.
Results As a result, it was divided into three groups, focusing on immediate tasks and interpersonal relationships, which are sub-factors of stress. In addition, due to COVID-19, the frequency of leisure activities that were highly utilized by an unspecified number of people or had high face-to-face contact was significantly reduced, and the frequency of leisure activities that could personally participate was significantly increased. In particular, it was found that participation in exercise increased significantly in cluster types with low stress levels. Finally, it was confirmed that the distribution of these three types was significantly different according to gender, employment status, monthly income, and current education.
Conclusion Based on the research results, appropriate prescriptions were proposed for each type in providing individualized stress management measures.

The purpose of this study was to conduct a job analysis of life care supporters who were affiliated with 「Individualized Support Service for Older Adults」. What job areas should be strengthened were also examined based on results of job analysis. Using the DACUM method, a job model consisting of a job definition of life care supporters, 7 duties, and 21 tasks was derived. The needs analysis was conducted based on the job model. As a result of analyzing job needs using paired t-test, the Borich needs assessment model, and the locus for focus model, it was found that life care supporters' awareness should be improved and job education should be strengthened, especially in areas of social participation program management, life education operation, and daily life support. Results of the study suggest the following: 1) awareness of job of life care supporters should be improved, 2) job identity education should be strengthened, 3) competency-based job training should be systematized, 4) work manuals should be produced for life care supporters, and 5) life care supporters should receive job training before starting work.

Objectives: To analyze work experiences of nurses working in alcohol addiction treatment facilities, data were collected through focus group interviews. The objective of this study was to identify role conflicts and enhance their adaptive abilities. Methods: This study was conducted from July 1st, 2022 to September 30th, 2022. Twelve nurses working in two alcohol addiction treatment facilities (selected using intentional sampling methods) participated in this study after obtaining their consent for participation and recording. Data collected through focus group interviews were transcribed and analyzed according to qualitative research methods. Results: Three main themes and 17 subthemes categorized into seven categories were found. The three themes were 'doubts about the work itself,' 'confusing role conflicts,' and 'adaptation and competency enhancement.' The seven categories were: 'initial shock of work,' 'work burden due to exhaustion,' 'doubts about the nursing profession,' 'Conflict of roles where one cannot complain', 'adaptation through personal coping methods,' 'regaining confidence in the role of a nurse' and 'support for competency enhancement.' Conclusions: Nurses in alcohol addiction treatment facilities had different experiences of exhaustion and support depending on the hospital culture they worked in. Nurses recognized that having a clear understanding of their roles was more important than anything else.
A phenomenological study on sexual life experiences of new elderly men
Authors:   Korean Academy of Integrated Care Management, Kim Seon-Nyeo
Published: January 2024

The purpose of this study was to analyze and reinterpret the meaning of sexual life experiences of newly elderly men, the baby boomer generation who were economically active, through phenomenological techniques. The research method involved conducting two in-depth interviews with seniors aged 60 to 62 living in Suncheon City and analyzing them through four steps of Giorgi's qualitative research method.
As a result of this study, 18 meaning units, 6 sub-components, and 3 components were derived. The first component was the symbol of man. Sub-components were 'vital energy of life' and 'root of pride'. The second component was discharge. Desire sub-components were 'Sexual distance according to object' and 'Finding an emergency exit'. The third component was coexistence of desire and family. Sub-components were 'Dilemma between instinct and reason' and 'A future left alone'. Through this study, we are able to discover a new type of marital life through reinterpretation of sexual life experiences of new elderly men who show different behavior from existing elderly men in modern society where asexual consciousness of elderly people is prevalent. Newly aged men struggled between their instinct to pursue pleasure and maintain a 'well-functioning family', ultimately pursuing a coexistence that neither one could give up. It is expected that the driving force behind this choice is that the economic power of those who are still active in the field, rather than the retired elderly, is guaranteed.
THE NEXUS BETWEEN FOREIGN DIRECT INVESTMENT AND NOMINAL EXCHANGE RATE, REAL GDP, AND CAPITAL STOCK IN TANZANIA
Authors: Utouh Harold , Tile Augustino
Published: January 2024

Aim: The paper aims to examine the relationship between FDI and the nominal exchange rate, real GDP, and capital stock in Tanzania using quantitative research methods and an econometric analysis. The analysis aims to provide insights into the factors that affect FDI and contribute to the existing literature on the relationship between FDI and economic growth. Methods: This study examines the relationship between FDI inflow, real GDP, capital stock, and the normal exchange rate in Tanzania using a robust research methodology. The study employs STATA 15 software and Akaike’s Information Criteria (AIC), Schwarz Information Criteria (SC), Final Prediction Error (FPE), and the Hannan Quinn (HQ) Information Criteria. In addition, the autoregressive model, the Johansen co-integration test, and the Toda-Yamamoto Granger causality (modified WALD) test were employed to determine the optimal lag. Results: The results indicate a bidirectional relationship between the nominal exchange rate and FDI in Tanzania, with FDI inflows influencing the nominal exchange rate volatility and vice versa. Furthermore, the results indicate that real GDP, capital stock, and the nominal exchange rate exert a unidirectional influence on FDI influx in Tanzania. Conclusions: The nominal exchange rate and capital stock have positive and negative correlations with foreign direct investment. Like many other African economies, Tanzania remains vulnerable to external forces despite making significant strides in stabilizing the exchange rate. It is recommended that the Central Bank of Tanzania – along with those of other African nations with similar economic structures – maintain a stable nominal exchange rate level as an incentive for foreign investors in order to increase the inflow of foreign direct investment.

Objectives

To assess the infrazygomatic crest (IZC) and palatal bone width, height, and angulation in patients with different vertical facial growth types as potential miniscrew insertion sites.

Materials and Methods

In this retrospective cone-beam computed tomography study, 162 subjects (81 males and 81 females, mean age 16.05 ± 0.65 years) were included. They were divided into three groups (hypodivergent, normodivergent, and hyperdivergent) based on the Frankfort mandibular plane angle. Ten buccal bone measurements were made at two different coronal sections: maxillary first molar mesiobuccal and distobuccal roots (bilaterally). Six palatal bone measurements were made on a sagittal section at the maxillary central incisors (bilaterally). A total of 32 measurements per subject were considered in the study.

Results

No significant difference was observed for the IZC (width and angle) at the maxillary first molar mesiobuccal root. A comparison of normodivergent and hyperdivergent groups for buccal width at the distobuccal root of the first molar showed significant differences. Palatal bone thickness at the level of 2 mm distal to the apex of the central incisor was significantly higher for the hyperdivergent group (10.43 mm) compared with the normodivergent (7.58 mm) and hypodivergent groups (7.83 mm).

Conclusions

Hyperdivergent subjects tend to present a longer and deeper IZC and increased palatal bone thickness compared with other groups. The recommended insertion angle for the IZC mini-implant at 3 mm from the alveolar crest should be between 75.5° and 77°.
