Published: October 2023

Discharging untreated ballast water into harbor waters often contains pathogenic bacteria, posing a potential threat as pollutants to the environment and fishery products. This study assesses the bacteriological impact of ballast water disposal on harbor waters and fishery products. Comparative analyses, utilizing both morphological and molecular examinations, are conducted to determine the presence of pathogenic bacteria according to the BWM Convention standards. The findings of morphological research on ballast water, harbor waters, and captured fish reveal similarities in the types of pathogenic bacteria, specifically the presence of V. cholerae and E. coli bacteria. Similarly, the molecular examination confirms the presence of the same pathogenic bacteria in both water and ballast samples, namely V. harveyi and V. parahaemolyticus. Additionally, other pathogenic bacteria are identified in the ballast water, including V. fortis and V. alginolyticus. Notably, there is no evidence of V. cholerae bacteria contribution from the river. Applying the BWM Convention is crucial and requires the attention of stakeholders to safeguard the maritime environment.

Published: October 2023

The dosimetry laboratory has to ensure that the implementation of quality assurance of testing meets clause 7.7 of the SNI ISO/ IEC17025: 2017. One of the activities to meet the quality assurance is to irradiate the personnel dosimeter at radiation facility that  is traced to national or international standard. In this research it has been outlined the dose response of personnel on the prototype of the 137Cs panoramic irradiation device and its  dose rate distribution. It was prepared 40 dosimeters for each of OSLD and TLD-900 which were divided into 5 groups. Each group consists of 8 dosimeters with 6 dosimeters for irradiated and 2 dosimeters as control. The dosimeter were mounted on the holders of 137Cs panoramic irradiation device prototype and exposed with irradiation time of 7.3 minutes, 54.5 minutes, 165 minutes, 330 minutes and 545.2 minutes respectively. Then they were evaluated using the OSLD microStar Reader or the TLD reader. Meanwhile, RaySafe Xi survey with its detector was prepared to measure  dose rate in the holder 1 to 6 for 5 minutes. The study showed that  the reading dose of  TLD-900 were relatively higher than OSLD. The difference of  TLD-900 reading dose to OSLD ranged from 0.10 – 1.44 mSv with a greater tendency for the higher dose. The linearity curve between reading dose to exposure time tends to be linear with a correlation factor (R2) of 0.9999 for OSLD and 0.9988 for TLD-900. The linearity equation on OSLD is y = 0.0184x – 0.0326. While the linearity equation for TLD-900 is y = 0.0214x – 0.1201. The dose rate on the holder 1 to 6 has an average of 1.02 mSv/h with  the standard deviation of 1.5%. The dose rate distribution at  a distance of 29 cm from the source ranges from 1.01 - 1.04 mSv/jam.

Background: Guide catheter extensions provide increased support in complex percutaneous coronary interventions. The ExpressmanTM is a novel guide catheter extension and the objective was to assess the impact of its use on procedural success and complications in a high-volume reference center. Methods: We analyzed data from all consecutive procedures in which the ExpressmanTM guide catheter extension was used. The decision to use a guide catheter extension was at operator’s discretion. Device success was defined as the successful positioning of the guide catheter extension in the coronary vessel and procedural success was defined as <20% residual stenosis and TIMI 3 flow, with no loss of significant side branches. Major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events were defined as the composite of all-cause death, myocardial infarction, target vessel revascularization and stroke. Results: From April 2022 to January 2023, 34 procedures were included. The majority of the patients were male (59%) and the mean age was 66.5 years. Guide catheter extension use was not planned pre-procedure in 17 procedures (50%). The most common reasons for guide catheter extension use were target vessel angulation or tortuosity and unfavorable coronary ostium position. Device success was obtained in 88% and revascularization success in 91%. There were three side branch occlusions. During in-hospital clinical follow-up, no major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events or major bleeding occurred. Conclusion: The device success and procedural success were high and the rate of complications was low. Guide catheter extension use as bailout technique in complex anatomies allowed procedural success in the vast majority of otherwise untreatable patients.

Trust Logic, Not Tortoises
Authors: Beverley John
Published: October 2023

I examine Kripke and Padro’s recent result that basic rules of logic - such as universal instantiation - cannot be adopted, and apply this lesson to two extant answers to the Justification Question, i.e. how are basic rules of logic justified? One answer was provided by Carnap’s doctrine of logical conventionalism; another by Quine’s holism. I argue each suffers from adoption-related problems. Having observed requiring explicit acceptance of basic rules guiding our inferential practices led to adoption-related trouble for Carnap and Quine, I then construct two additional answers to the Justification Question that avoid similar trouble. On the first proposal, explicit acceptance of basic rules of logic is weakened to implicit acceptance – regular behavior in accordance with the rule. After arguing this option both avoids Kripke and Padro’s negative result and provides a prima facie plausible answer to the Justification Question, closer inspection reveals the proposal has significant costs. On the second proposal, requiring basic rules of logic be accepted at all is dropped by rejecting these rules have propositional content. Rather, on the model of Michael Devitt’s recent work concerning linguistic competence, basic rules of logic are defended as know-how rather than propositional knowledge. As before, after arguing this option avoids conflict with the negative results of the Adoption Question and offers a prima facie plausible answer to the Justification Question, inspection reveals costs. Nevertheless, it is argued nearly every cost is one shared by the first option, and each is worth paying.I thus provide two ways to answer the Justification Question while respecting the Adoption Question, and argue the second is preferable.
Experimental studies on blast performance of unreinforced masonry walls of clay bricks and concrete blocks: a state-of-the-art review
Authors: Anas S. M. , Alam Mehtab , Umair Mohammad
Published: October 2023

In this paper, available experimental studies on clay-brick and concrete block URM walls subjected to blast loading are briefly reviewed and summarised. Studies conducted to improve the blast resistance of the walls using G-FRP strips, G-FRP rods, and Polyurea coating, and their effect on maximum deflection, damage, and cracking have also been recapitulated. Detail summary for strengthening and retrofitting of the walls is presented in tabular form. It is observed that the effect of brick and mortar strength on maximum mid-span deflection and damage resistance of wall is insignificant under higher reflected blast pressure (> 2MPa). However, Young’s modulus of masonry is found to be a predominant parameter in improving the deflection response of the wall. The mode of failure of a wall is governed by the magnitude of peak overpressure, blast duration, and boundary conditions. Scope for further studies on a hybrid form of the walls is recommended.
Land concentration and large renewable energy projects
Authors: Oto-Peralías Daniel , Cuberes David , Lacuesta Aitor , Moreno Carlos
Published: October 2023

This paper documents that land ownership concentration increases the probability of hosting large green energy facilities, specifically, mega photovoltaic (PV) plants. First, we show that U.S. counties with a higher proportion of agricultural land concentrated in large farms are more likely to accommodate mega PV facilities, defined as installations exceeding 50 hectares. In particular, counties where more than 50% of agricultural land is held by large farms double the probability of hosting a mega PV plant. The effect is robust when controlling for key factors for the deployment of PV projects, such as terrain ruggedness and PV output potential. Second, we provide both qualitative and quantitative analogous evidence for Spanish municipalities. Third, we explore Spanish data in greater detail and conduct an intra-municipal analysis at the 0.5x0.5km grid-cell level, which enables us to neutralize all omitted variables that can jointly determine land concentration and the decision to locate mega PV plants. We show that grid cells located in larger register (cadastral) parcels have a much higher probability of being part of a mega PV facility. These results respond to the fact that for a company trying to develop a large PV facility, it is easier to reach an agreement to rent the required land with a large landowner than with dozens or hundreds of owners. These findings are of great relevance in order to assess the costs and benefits of such investments, in a context of growing opposition by rural communities. Our results also exemplify how a historically rooted economic factor such as land inequality plays a key role in determining the location of large renewable energy projects.

Exploring dual diagnosis in opioid agonist treatment patients: A registry-linkage study in Czechia and Norway
Authors: Rolová Gabriela , Skurtveit Svetlana , Gabrhelík Roman , Mravčík Viktor , Odsbu Ingvild
Published: October 2023

Background: Knowledge of co-occurring mental disorders (termed ‘dual diagnosis’) among patients receiving opioid agonist treatment (OAT) is scarce. This study aimed (1) to estimate the prevalence and structure of dual diagnoses in two national cohorts of OAT patients and (2) to compare mental disorders between OAT patients and the general populations stratified on sex and standardized by age. Methods: A registry-linkage study of OAT patients from Czechia (N = 4,280) and Norway (N = 11,389) during 2010–2019 was conducted. Data on mental disorders (F00-F99; ICD-10) recorded in nationwide health registers were linked to the individuals registered in OAT. Dual diagnoses were defined as any mental disorder excluding substance use disorders (SUDs, F10-F19; ICD-10). Sex-specific age-standardized morbidity ratios (SMR) were calculated for 2019 to compare OAT patients and the general populations. Results: The prevalence of dual diagnosis was 57.3% for Czechia and 78.3% for Norway. In Czechia, anxiety (31.1%) and personality disorders (25.7%) were the most prevalent, whereas anxiety (33.8%) and depression (20.8%) were the most prevalent in Norway. Large country-specific variations were observed, e.g., in ADHD (0.5% in Czechia, 15.8% in Norway), implying differences in screening and diagnostic practices. The SMR estimates for any mental disorders were 3.1 (females) and 5.1 (males) in Czechia and 5.6 (females) and 8.2 (males) in Norway. OAT females had a significantly higher prevalence of co-occurring mental disorders, whereas SMRs were higher in OAT males. In addition to opioid use disorder (OUD), other substance use disorders (SUDs) were frequently recorded in both countries. Conclusions: Results indicate an excess of mental health problems in OAT patients compared to the general population of the same sex and age in both countries, requiring appropriate clinical attention. Country-specific differences may stem from variations in diagnostics and care, reporting to registers, OAT provision, or substance use patterns.

“Retirement is one hell of a change”: Autistic people’s experiences of retiring
Authors: Davies Jade , Matthews Rose , Romualdez Anna Melissa , Pellicano Liz , Remington Anna
Published: October 2023

Limited research has examined autistic people’s experiences of aging. While the significance of retirement in the context of aging has been highlighted by autistic people themselves, there is a dearth of research in this regard, with only one study focusing on the retirement experiences of one autistic man. In this study, we spoke to 12 older autistic people who had retired in the last 10 years, or were planning to retire in the next five years, to generate some of the first insights regarding autistic people’s retirement experiences. Experiences were diverse. Challenges in retirement planning and adjustment were reported by some, while others viewed retirement as a positive respite from challenging work environments. The availability of more leisure time was appreciated by some, while others encountered ongoing responsibilities and obstacles hindering desired activities. A common theme was the inadequate support available for autistic people during retirement. Concerns about the aging process, including concerns about health decline and the possibility of entering residential care, were also common. Future research should examine the suitability of residential care for older autistic adults, consider alternative autistic-led group living arrangements, and explore avenues for improved support during and after the retirement transition.
A longitudinal network model to assess affect structures in ecological momentary assessment: Likert and slider response formats may not be equivalent
Authors: Shi Dingjing , Hébert Emily , Businelle Michael
Published: October 2023

Examining the factor structures of affective states has been a central topic in psychology (Eisele et al., 2021). Ecological Momentary Assessment (EMA) may be used to repeatedly collect information about behaviors and experiences in real-time and is a suitable method for capturing current affect, such as feelings of happiness or sadness. This study explored the feasibility of using a longitudinal network modeling technique, dynamical Exploratory Graph Analysis (dynEGA; Golino et al., 2022), to assess dimensionalities of affect in intensive longitudinal EMA data. 485 participants were recruited from across the United States and randomized to one of two levels on each of 5 design factors in a 2x2x2x2x2 design, including number of questions per EMA survey, number of EMAs per day, EMA prompting schedule, payment type, and EMA response scale type. All participants were asked to complete prompted EMAs for 28 days. By reconstructing the state space of the dynamical system, the dynEGA technique assessed the dimensionality of longitudinal EMA data and found that Likert and slider-type response formats may not provide equivalent information when assessing the factor structures of affect measures. The slider-type response format detected structures for positive affect, high-arousal negative affect, and low-arousal negative affect, aligning with the theoretical framework of the circumplex model of affect (Posner et al., 2005; Russell, 1980). In contrast, the Likert-type response format detected a single-dimensional structure. Furthermore, the study combined daily EMAs, which were conducted multiple times throughout the day, into a single aggregated EMA score. Subsequently, the study examined the structure of this aggregated affective measurement but could not fully recover the underlying affect construct. This finding highlighted the usefulness of using EMA to assess emotional states as they occur in the natural environment. This is an initial and successful exploratory of using longitudinal dynamic Exploratory Graph Analysis to examine EMA assessment. In future EMA studies, it may be beneficial to use this technique for a more precise understanding of an individual's current mood. This approach could assist in capturing moment-to-moment affective patterns, which could potentially inform predictions for future affect, thoughts, and behaviors.
Psychedelic Therapy: Beyond Brain, Embracing Culture
Authors: Hipólito Inês , Tzima Sofia
Published: October 2023

This paper argues that cultural embodiment plays a pivotal factor in shaping psychological experiences, influencing both the development and treatment of mental health conditions. Traditional analytic philosophy of mind proposes that the efficacy of psychedelic-assisted therapy should be understood as a brain computational model update. Beyond the scientific understanding of neural activity, we argue instead that the psychological therapeutic effect should be understood as pattern changes in self-narratives. Psychedelic experience plays a causal role in therapeutic efficacy by allowing the pattern changes of culturally situated self-narratives. By considering the interplay between cultural embodiment and therapeutic outcomes, this study offers a novel perspective on the processes underlying psychedelic-assisted therapy and highlights the potential for more effective treatment approaches in mental health interventions.
Student Sociodemographic and School Type Differences in Teacher-Predicted vs. Achieved Grades for University Admission
Authors: Leckie George , Maragkou Konstantina
Published: October 2023

In England, students apply to universities using teacher predicted grades instead of their final end-of-school A-level examination results. Predicted rather than achieved grades therefore inform how ambitiously students apply to and receive offers from the most selective courses. The Universities and Colleges Admissions Service (UCAS) encourage teachers to make optimistic predictions to motivate students to apply ambitiously and achieve higher grades. However, little is known about variations in optimism across students and schools, as well as the mechanisms behind such variations. If certain groups of students or schools are predicted more optimistically than others, this may distort application, offer, and acceptance rates between these groups. Such distortions have the potential to impact efforts to promote wider participation and enhance social mobility. In this study, we use newly linked administrative education data to show predicted grades are differentially optimistic by student sociodemographic and school characteristics. These variations are often substantial and can only be partially explained by differences in students’ prior achievements, the subjects they studied at A-level, the degree subjects they pursue, and their choices of university and courses. We find less educationally advantaged students are in general more rather than less optimistically predicted, although there are important exceptions to this trend. Our findings contribute to the growing consensus advocating for reforms to the admissions system, including whereby students can continue to revise their course choices until they receive their achieved grades, and universities only make offers after that date.
Abolitionist Visions and the Spectre of Enthusiasm
Authors: Isom Rachael
Published: October 2023

By modern definitions, an “enthusiast” is a fan, but, in the eighteenth century, an enthusiast was a fanatic, and the word’s associations with religious heterodoxy made it a devastating weapon in the political arena. Critics often used this pejorative rhetoric to target anti-slavery activists. The charge of enthusiasm, while accurate in recognizing abolitionists’ energetic vision, helped detractors mischaracterize the movement as dangerously zealous. This essay takes as a case study Richard Newton’s 1792 sketch The Blind Enthusiast, which caricatures prominent abolitionist William Wilberforce as an easily fooled fanatic. Biblical allusions show Newton’s debt to religious rhetoric, while political catchwords invoke key debates of the 1790s. The stereotype does not remain in the past, however. As this essay argues, the notion of the enthusiastic abolitionist troubles activism in the twenty-first century, too, impeding efforts toward more equitable futures.
Eighteenth-Century Literary Fragments: Queering the Fiction of “Finished” Work
Authors: Meadows Lucien Darjeun , Lynn Leia
Published: October 2023

One of the most accepted fictions in literature is that a work will, at some point in its existence, be completed. In this essay, we queer that assumption, challenging its tenets through examining taxonomies and eighteenth-century categorizations alongside Samuel Taylor Coleridge’s “Kubla Khan” (1797; published 1816), John Keats’s Hyperion (1820), and Mary Wollstonecraft’s Maria: or, The Wrongs of Woman (1798), as well as other unfinished literary works of the long eighteenth century. We argue for the rereading of fragmented and unfinished work as a method of pluriversality and refusal of a singular, monumental, fixed and finished text. By accepting that the finished/unfinished binary of work is not true to creative processes, we refuse the fiction of finished work and argue to elevate those myriad fragmentary works that are currently considered critically inferior.
Deconstructing Reliance on Enlightenment Methods in Feminist Book Historical Scholarship
Authors: Rodgers Micaela
Published: October 2023

Historically, canonical novels have been written primarily by men either for other men or for the “education” of women to encourage conformity to patriarchal standards. Yet, throughout much of the eighteenth century, novels written by and for women outsold most materials written by their male counterparts. Nevertheless, scholarship on the female writer and reader has been difficult to find or produce, mainly due to inherited structures that prevent radical feminist scholarship from flourishing. This essay examines the Western scholarly reliance on white, hetero, Eurocentric thought and knowledge-production and describes how those power structures discourage new methods of scholarship. It looks to feminist and queer literary theorists and book historians for a paradigm of future scholarship that prioritizes ways of knowing outside the Enlightenment model.
Cement Augmentation of Pedicle Screw Instrumentation: A Literature Review
Authors: Boucas Peter , Mamdouhi Tania , Rizzo Sarah E. , Megas Andrew
Published: October 2023

This literature review aimed to review the current understanding, indications, and limitations of pedicle screw instrumentation cement augmentation. Since they were first reported in the 1980s, pedicle screw cement augmentation rates have been increasing. Several studies have been published to date that describe various surgical techniques and the biomechanical changes that occur when cement is introduced through the screw-bone interface. This article provides a concise review of the uses, biomechanical properties, cost analysis, complications, and surgical techniques used for pedicle screw cement augmentation to help guide physician practices. A comprehensive review of the current literature was conducted, with key studies, and contributions from throughout history being highlighted. Patients with low bone mineral density are the most well-studied indication for pedicle screw cement augmentation. Many studies show that cement augmentation can improve pullout strength in patients with low bone mineral density; however, the benefit varies inversely with pathology severity and directly with technique. The various screw types are discussed, with each having its own mechanical advantages. Cement distribution is largely dependent on the filling method and volume of cement used. Cement composition and timing of cement use after mixing are critical considerations in practice because they can significantly alter the bone-cement and screw-cement interfaces. Overall, studies have shown that pedicle screw cement augmentation has a low complication rate and increased pullout strength, justifying its universal use in patients with a suboptimal bone-implant interface.

Authors: Griddaluru S Deepthi , Kuraparthy Brinda , Vembuluru Dwarakanath Reddy , Vankadara Swapna , Kandukuru Krishna Chaitanya
Published: October 2023

Background: For postoperative pain relief after laparoscopic surgeries, intramuscular or intravenous non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and opioids, infiltration at the incision site with local anesthetics, intraperitoneal infiltration of local anesthetics with adjuvants, epidurals and nerve blocks were in use. The study was aimed to assess the efficacy of intramuscular Tramadol and intraperitoneal instillation of bupivacaine on postoperative analgesia, postoperative nausea, and vomiting following laparoscopic cholecystectomy.

Methods: This study included 60 American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) I and ASA II patients of aged 18-60 years who were scheduled for laparoscopic cholecystectomy under general anesthesia. 60 patients were classified randomly into two groups equally: Group T received 100 Mg of intramuscular tramadol and Group B received intraperitoneal instillation of 30 ml of plain bupivacaine. Time duration, postoperative pain, haemodynamics, nausea, vomiting, and time taken to rescue analgesia were noted.

Results: The time for onset of analgesia was 6.51 ± 2.41min in group T and 7.61 ± 2.19 min in group B (p=0.039). The duration of analgesia was 2.37 ± 0.67 hours in group T and 3.65 ± 0.79 hours in group B (p=0.002). VAS Score was significantly lower in Group T than Group B at 1hr, 2hr, 4hr and 6hr (p <0.05). Intraperitoneal bupivacaine showed a significant reduction in postoperative pain for the first 6 hours postoperatively (P<0.05), and time taken to rescue analgesia requirement was prolonged (P<0.05). The rescue analgesia consumption of Paracetamol was 1.5 grams in group-B and 2.5 grams in group T (P<0.05) in 24 hr post-surgery. Nausea and vomiting were observed in 2 cases, and shoulder pain in one case in group T.

Conclusion: Bupivacaine is effective in reducing postoperative pain, and it prolongs the requirement time for rescue analgesia after LC surgery. It also required less consumption of rescue analgesic without fluctuations in hemodynamics

Model podwójnego procesu i kompetytywność jako predyktory toksyczności w grach komputerowych
Authors: Kostewicz Michał
Published: October 2023

Badanie miało na celu znalezienie predyktorów toksyczności ogólnej, toksyczności związanej z płcią i seksizmu w grach. Przetestowany został model podwójnego procesu, w którym predyktorami były orientacja na dominację społeczną i prawicowy autorytaryzm, a zmiennymi zależnymi toksyczność ogólna, toksyczność związana z płcią oraz seksizm w grach. Analizie poddano wyniki ankiety internetowej 834 osób, z czego 40% to kobiety. Do analizy użyłem testów t-studenta i analizy modelu ścieżkowego. Orientacja na dominację społeczną była lepszym predyktorem obydwu toksyczności niż prawicowy autorytaryzm, co jest zgodne z wynikami poprzednich badań. Za pomocą przedstawionego modelu udało się wyjaśnić około 50% wariancji seksizmu w grach. Głównymi predyktorami seksizmu w grach były seksizm życzliwy i seksizm wrogi. Toksyczność ogólna i toksyczność związana z płcią została wyjaśniona w około 10%. Sprawdzona została także zależność między graniem w grę kompetytywną a wynikami na skali seksizmu w grach, toksyczności ogólnej oraz toksyczności związanej z płcią. Osoby grające w grę kompetytywną uzyskiwały wyższe wyniki na każdej ze skal w sposób istotny statystycznie.
Dual-process model and competitiveness as predictors of in-game toxicity
Authors: Kostewicz Michał
Published: October 2023

The objective of this research was to gain a better understanding of in-game toxicity by measuring general harassment in computer games, sexual harassment in computer games, and video game sexism. A proposed dual-process model was used with social dominance orientation and right-wing authoritarianism as the main predictors and benevolent sexism and hostile sexism as additional independent variables. A total of 834 participants, of which 40% were female, completed an online survey. The data was analysed using t-tests and a structural equation model. Social dominance orientation was found to be a better predictor than right-wing authoritarianism, consistent with previous research. The variance of video game sexism was explained by 50%, while the variance of general harassment in computer games and sexual harassment in computer games was explained by 8% and 13%, respectively. Competitive game players had statistically higher scores on all three dependent variable scales.
Parenting on the Internet and the media in Olsztyn. Selected aspects
Authors: Myślak Dominika A.
Published: October 2023

This article is an exploratory study of online parenthood, combining research with popularization. The author has set two main objectives: 1) to present selected proparenting groups and foundations in Olsztyn that follow attachment parenting (AP) and nonviolent communication (NVC), and 2) to examine their image in the local press. Using publications from the Olsztyn edition of Gazeta Wyborcza, the author highlights the fact that attachment parenting and nonviolent communication are part of worldwide trends in parenting and that they are often the subject of negative media coverage. The study includes results from an uncategorized interview, and the author argues that local media plays a significant role in shaping public perception of the phenomenon.
Opinie internautów na temat fake newsów (komunikat z badań)
Authors: Subocz Elżbieta , Solarska Małgorzata
Published: October 2023

Fake newsy stają się coraz powszechniejsze w mediach masowych i stanowią realne zagrożenie dla społeczeństwa w wielu aspektach: jednostkowym, politycznym, gospodarczym, kulturowym oraz zdrowotnym. Aktualne wydarzenia, takie jak pandemia COVID-19 oraz wojna w Ukrainie, pokazują, do jakich skutków w realnym świecie może doprowadzić dezinformacja. W artykule zaprezentowano wyniki badań empirycznych zrealizowanych na próbie 110 internautów. Problem główny został sformułowany następująco: jaki jest stosunek internautów do fake newsów? Wyniki badań dowiodły, iż respondenci doskonale znają wyrażenie „fake news”, jego formy oraz zagrożenia płynące z uwierzenia w nieprawdziwe informacje. Większość badanych stara się weryfikować czytane wiadomości poprzez sprawdzanie kilku źródeł informacji.
A complex perspective on digital education development: From economic impact to community advancement
Authors: Velics Gabriella
Published: October 2023

Evidence shows that education prepares future generations for the future, but technological innovations are reshaping the present and the near future to such an extent that it is increasingly unpredictable what exactly future generations should be prepared for. The research was guided by Microsoft's 2018 research summary "Transforming education - Empowering the students of today to create the world of tomorrow", which provided inspiration on the most common mistakes and how to avoid them.

The first part of the paper reviews the societal drivers and imperatives for transforming education through a complex literature review, while the second part of the paper presents a practical organisational transformation process sequence. The paper presents Hungarian examples and cases, but it can also serve as a thought-provoking tool for the wider region, where the study of the process outlined reveals a striking contrast between potential and current transformation efforts. The purchase of technological equipment and the provision of schools with new educational technology is not achieving the desired objective, as the funds are not available. It is instructive to reflect on what the system developers have tried to skip over and get away with, and why this is not a viable path.
Komunikacja naukowa badaczy na wczesnym etapie kariery – organizacja międzynarodowych badań z udziałem Polaków oraz ich polskiej kontynuacji
Authors: Świgoń Marzena , Nicholas David
Published: October 2023

W artykule omówiono główne założenia oraz organizację badań nad komunikacją naukową widzianą oczami początkujących naukowców, które prowadzone są od kilku lat w ośmiu krajach, tzn. w Stanach Zjednoczonych, Wielkiej Brytanii, Hiszpanii, Francji, Malezji, Chinach, Rosji oraz Polsce. Zrealizowane w latach 2016–2022 projekty badawcze (finansowane przez Publishing Research Consortium, CIBER Research Ltd. oraz Sloan Fundation) polegały na prowadzeniu wywiadów podłużnych z reprezentantami dziedzin nauk inżynieryjno-technicznych, medycznych i o zdrowiu, ścisłych i przyrodniczych, a także społecznych. Natomiast w roku 2023 (projekt NCN nr 2022/45/B/HS2/00041) rozpoczęto wywiady z polskimi młodymi badaczami z wcześniej nieanalizowanych dzie-dzin, czyli nauk humanistycznych, teologicznych oraz dziedzin sztuki.
Докторат Богдана Барвінського: ґенеза, реалізація, рецепція
Authors: Мирош Володимир
Published: October 2023

Мета дослідження – реконструювати процес підготовки Б. Барвінським докторату, проаналізувати зміст праці та з’ясувати особливості її рецепції. Методологія дослідження спирається на застосування принципів (об’єктивності, історизму, холізму) та методів (узагальнення, аналіз і синтез, порівняння, генетичний, психологічний та типологічний) історіографічного дослідження. Наукова новизна статті полягає у спробі комплексного аналізу проблематики, пов’язаної із підготовкою, захистом та рецепцією першої монографії Б. Барвінського. Висновки. Здійснена реконструкція процесу підготовки та обговорення докторської дисертації Б. Барвінського дозволяє доволі повно зрозуміти дослідницький темперамент молодого вченого. Насамперед відзначено його наполегливість і цілеспрямованість в опануванні знань і вмінь як необхідних підстав для осмислення доби українського середньовіччя, що нею був захоплений юнак. По-друге, вказано на амбітність початкуючого історика, який наполегливо шукаючи власну дорогу в українознавстві, свідомо обрав темою докторату надзвичайно складну та контраверсійну постать Жигимонта Кейстутовича. Її опрацювання вимагало тривалих археографічних пошуків й інтенсивної аналітичної праці. По-третє, Б. Барвінський продемонстрував чималу дослідницьку сміливість, а подекуди й зухвалість, у спробах підважити усталені історіографічною традицією тези. І хоча його гіпотези здебільшого не були підтримані колегами, вони спонукали литуаністів до фахової саморефлексії. Незважаючи на загалом критичне сприйняття першої монографії Б. Барвінського, наукова корпорація схвально оцінила проведену молодим ученим археографічну й історіографічну роботу та його наполегливість у переосмисленні політичної біографії Жигимонта Кейстутовича. Підсумком була успішна промоція докторської праці і здобутий авторитет талановитого медієвіста. Це дозволило Б. Барвінському стати помітною постаттю галицької історіографії, представники якої виконували важливу громадську місію переосмислення ключових явищ середньовічної доби Центрально-Східної Європи з погляду українського історичного інтересу.
Засоби масової інформації як інструмент соціальної мобілізації західноукраїнського суспільства в перше повоєнне десятиліття
Authors: Стародубець Галина
Published: October 2023

Мета дослідження – розкрити особливості використання комуністичною владою періодичних друкованих видань як інструментів тотальної мобілізації західноукраїнського суспільства в перше повоєнне десятиліття, дослідити специфіку їх діяльності в умовах радянізації регіону. Методологія дослідження. В основу методологічного підходу дослідження покладено теорію тоталітарної держави, позбавленої демократичних засад. Використовуються також загальнонаукові методи аналізу і синтезу, порівняння і узагальнення. Застосовано історичні методи зовнішньої та внутрішньої критики архівних джерел. Наукова новизна полягає у тому, що вперше розглянуто особливості функціонування друкованих періодичних видань у регіональному розрізі, показано способи їх використання владою як інструмент соціальної мобілізації західноукраїнського суспільства в період пізнього сталінізму. Висновки. Зроблено висновок, що, преса західних областей України виступала одним із важливих інструментів радянізації краю в період першого повоєнного десятиліття. Усі без виключення регіональні газети були друкованими органами районних/міських/обласних комітетів КП(б)У. Редакторська політика апріорі не могла бути самостійною, оскільки за умов партійної монополії на інформаційний простір, уся преса перебувала під тотальним контролем більшовицької партії. Друковані періодичні видання досліджуваного періоду виконували функції агітатора та пропагандиста сталінських ідей, політики правлячої комуністичної партії. З одного боку, вони сприяли мобілізації населення на відбудову економіки регіону, а з іншого – на підтримку політики партії, спрямованої на боротьбу з українським повстанським рухом. Широко застосовувана практика залучення місцевого населення як кореспондентів газети – робсількорів, мала на меті створення ілюзії всенародної підтримки партійно-радянської влади, можливості кожного «пересічного громадянина» вільно долучитися до процесу розбудови держави.
Академік НААН А.О. Бабич та його наукова школа з аграрного дослідництва (кінець XX – початок XXI ст.)
Authors: Бухта Галина
Published: October 2023

Метою дослідження є визначення умов становлення і функціонування, внеску у науку, науково-технічний і соціальний прогрес досягнень наукової школи академіка НААН А. О. Бабича, місця і ролі її наукової дільності у час радянської аграрної політики та період реформування аграрної галузі України. Вивчення окремих аспектів діяльності наукової школи у питанні розв’язання проблеми дефіциту продовольства у період глибокої кризи сільськогосподарського виробництва країни й переходу від екстенсивних методів колгоспно-радгоспної системи на ринкові умови господарювання здійснено на основі архівних матеріалів. Методологія дослідження ґрунтується на використанні й поєднанні головних загальнонаукових принципів: історизму, об’єктивізму, науковості, історико-біографічного аналізу у комплексі з історико-системним, біографічним, хронологічним, описовим та статистичним методами. Наукова новизна дослідження полягає у поглибленому вивченні досягнень наукової школи А. О. Бабича і його послідовників у напрямі селекції, рослинництва і кормовиробництва у контексті суспільно-політичних змін, на основі поєднання із матеріалами інтерв’ювання учнів академіка і його родини, що сприяло комплексному дослідженню історичного внеску наукової школи, як успішного творчого колективу, у розв’язання проблем аграрної науки. Висновки. У період трансформаційних перетворень сільськогосподарської галузі та наукового забезпечення селекційних і технологічних напрямів аграрного виробництва України академіком НААН А. О. Бабичем заснована наукова школа із напряму селекційно-технологічного забезпечення та розвитку аграрної науки. Ученими наукової школи були розгорнуті перспективні дослідження із селекції, насінництва зернофуражних, зернобобових і кормових культур, запропоновані концепції та методи у кормовиробництві, зроблені відкриття і винаходи, створено багато нових, адаптованих під сортові технології сортів кормових культур, удосконалені технології їх вирощування. Запропоновані наукові розробки поліпшили стан кормової бази, забезпечили виробництво якісних повноцінних кормів. Це відіграло значну роль у перебудові сільськогосподарської науки в Україні, здобутті вагомих наукових і виробничих результатів.
