Authors: Pinheiro Regina Claudia , Oliveira José Rogério de
Published: December 2020

Os jogos educacionais digitais têm sido importantes ferramentas para a aprendizagem de diversos conteúdos. No entanto, na Educação de Jovens e Adultos (EJA), modalidade carente de material didático, esses recursos não têm sido muito utilizados, pois são escassos os jogos educacionais criados para este público. Acreditamos que uma das razões para esta carência seja o fato de se pensar que esses recursos são mais atrativos para crianças. Considerando o exposto, para este artigo, construímos um jogo educacional digital, a fim de explorar o seu potencial na EJA, com vistas a investigar se este contribui para a aprendizagem, por meio de práticas de letramentos. Como contribuição teórica, este artigo baseia-se, principalmente, em: Prensky (2001), Savi e Ulbricht (2008) e Pinheiro, Lima e Araújo (2020), sobre os benefícios dos jogos digitais educacionais para a aprendizagem; Freire (2018; 1987), sobre a conscientização do indivíduo e a aprendizagem contextualizada; Soares (2004), Kleiman (2007), Catelli Jr. (2014) e Pinheiro (2018) sobre letramentos. Dessa forma, após o desenvolvimento do jogo digital Xote da Preservação, que aborda questões ambientais, este foi aplicado em uma turma de jovens e adultos e buscamos, a partir da observação desta prática e de entrevistas, analisar suas considerações a respeito da atividade proposta. Como resultados, verificamos que o objeto desta investigação demonstrou grande potencial para alfabetização e conscientização dos alunos e, apesar de esta pesquisa identificar que as práticas auxiliadas pelas tecnologias não são recorrentes com o público-participante, o jogo despertou o interesse de todos os envolvidos, que se mostraram satisfeitos em jogá-lo.

A pesquisa utiliza uma abordagem metodológica transdisciplinar, de natureza qualitativa, exploratória, descritiva e analítica, que investiga as competências digitais que os docentes devem desenvolver para aprimorar as linguagens artísticas e interculturais entre seus estudantes. Como resultado, são mostradas as tecnologias de aprendizagem usadas durante as filmagens, desenvolvimento e a produção do documentário ‘A Arte Perdida da Educação’. Posteriormente, é apresentado um projeto de pesquisa, desenvolvimento e inovação (P+D+i) que procura disseminar a idiossincrasia intercultural, plurinacional e multiétnica do Equador com a inclusão digital de um videogame educativo e interativo. Conclui-se que a educação do século XXI precisa de uma profunda inovação de teorias, metodologias e recursos didáticos voltados para a reavaliação de práticas, costumes, conhecimentos e cosmovisões dos povos ancestrais através do uso de ferramentas tecnológicas, mídias digitais e recursos audiovisuais
Technological and pluricultural teacher training for a quality educational inclusion
Authors: Camargo Cláudia de Barros
Published: December 2020

The present work aims to establish the links that may exist between technological training and multicultural training of teachers with educational inclusion. The research design is non-experimental, explanatory and correlational, with a quantitative method. A reliable and content-validated Likert-type scale has been used. The sample used is 594 subjects, formed by university students in their last year of Primary Education and graduate students (Master of Teacher Training) (University of Jaen, Spain). An exploratory factorial analysis was carried out which validated the scale's construct and which allows us to conclude that greater value is given to foreign training than to national training, and furthermore, little value is given to teacher training as a key to an educational system in accordance with the 21st century. Spearman's Rho was applied, where the significant correlation between the training provided by non-university institutions and pluricultural training can be observed. Structural equation modeling (SEM) concludes by demonstrating the strong relationship between inclusive and pluricultural teacher education, and between the latter and technology, with a weak relationship between technology and general teacher education.
Relation of the ICT with neuroeducation, inclusion, pluriculturality and environmental education through a Confirmatory Factorial Analysis study
Authors: Fernández Antonio Hernández
Published: December 2020

The present work aims to analyze the relationship of ICT with neuroeducation, educational inclusion, environmental education and pluriculturality through Confirmatory Factor Analysis (Structural Equation Model – SEM) of a created ad hoc and a validated and confirmed scale. For the search for answers, a non-experimental, descriptive, explanatory and correlational research process was carried out. The instrument used to collect the data was a Likert scale, which has been validated in content and with a good Cronbach's alpha (.825). The construct validity was carried out with an exploratory factorial analysis (KMO (.764), Bartlett (Sign.000), Determinant (2.891E-30)). The sample was of 292 students of Master’s Degree in Teacher Training from the University of Jaen (Spain). The Confirmatory Factorial Analysis (SEM) allowed us to conclude that this relationship is possible, with greater strength between education technologies and educational inclusion, and between the former and pluriculturality, and with less strength between environmental education and neuroeducation, what should be taken into account to implement in university training programs.

Published: December 2020

Salivary gland tumours account for 2-6.5% of all the neoplasms of the Head and Neck. Histopathology is most important in diagnosis of salivary gland tumors. AIMS and OBJECTIVES : To study age,sex and site distribution of various salivary gland lesions, to study the histomorphologic (gross µscopic) aspect of these lesions to correlate clinical diagnosis with that of histopathologic features. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The study is conducted in the RAINBOW CLINICAL LABORATORY AND RESEARCH CENTRE, SIDDIPET during the period of September2018 to September 2020. Formalin fixed ,paraffin embedded sections and stained with hematoxylin and eosin slides were studied. RESULTS: Total number of specimens were 54. Out of these 39 were neoplastic (benign 70%,malignant 30%) and 15 were non neoplastic. Among the benign tumors majority are pleomorphic adenoma.Among the malignant tumors, mucoepidermoid carcinoma is the most common. Among the non neoplastic lesions chronic sialadenitis is most common. CONCLUSION: Histopathological examination of salivary gland lesions stands out to be the most important method in establishing the final diagnosis. It helps in differentiating non neoplastic and neoplastic lesions.

Published: December 2020

Introduction
Chemotherapy induced nausea and vomiting (CIN) one of the troublesome adverse event following chemotherapy especially in cisplatin based. CIN usually managed with ondansetron and corticosteroids which are effective in controlling acute phase but ineffective in delayed vomiting associated with cisplatin. Aprepitant, a drug that antagonizes the effect of substance P on neurokinin type 1 receptor showed promising results in controlling both phases of CINV.
Aim of the study
1. To compare aprepitant with conventional anti emetics which effectively reducing cisplatin based chemotherapy induced vomiting especially delayed phase of vomiting.
Materials and methods
All patients treated with cisplatin in cancer institute, Adyar, chennai from 2013 january to june included in this study. Aprepitant in one arm and using conventional antiemetics in another arm were taken into this study. Those who defaulted are excluded from the study. Another arm ondansetron and corticosteroids were given without aprepitant. All patients weight, electrolytes and cumulative dose were recorded and analysed using standard statistical methods.
Results
Total no of patients included in this study were 190. Among 190 Carcinoma cervix patients were 92 and 98 patients were oral cavity cancers. In this 76 patients were given aprepitant and 114 patients without aprepitant. Nausea experienced by the patients were similar between 2 arms and insignificant (18.4% vs 21.9 %- with and without aprepitant respectively). But significant reduction in CIN grade II & III were noted in aprepitant arm. In the study we recorded that aprepitant effective in preventing severe and delayed CIN than early and acute phase of CIN
The loss of weight more than 2 kgs were recorded and found that 18.4 (n=14)% & 64.9 (n=74) respectively in aprepitant and conventional arm(p=0.0001).
All patients were monitored for electrolyte imbalance and records showed that significant difference noted between groups( 0% Vs 7.8% in aprepitant and conventional arm respectively , p=0.012).
Conclusion
Aprepitant is one of the potent drug reducing CIN and vomiting related complications such as electrolyte imbalance and weight loss. In our study we proved that aprepitant extremely significant in reducing cisplatin based chemotherapy induced vomiting.

Published: December 2020

Introduction: The optimum treatment choice for femoral neck fractures is often contested. In this study, we aimed to compare the functional outcome in geriatric patients who underwent either cemented or uncemented hemiarthroplasty in our department.
Methods: This prospective study included patients who were scheduled to undergo hemiarthroplasty for femoral neck fracture in the Department of Orthopaedics, Hi-Tech Medical College, Bhubaneswar, Odisha. Two study groups were made. One group had patients who underwent uncemented hemiarthroplasty and the second group had patients who underwent cemented hemiarhtroplasty. Surgery related information was collected from the operative notes of the surgeon. Post-operative complications, Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) scores and Harris Hip Score (HHS) were noted during the follow up period.
Results: There were 30 patients in the uncemented group and 31 in the cemented group. All the baseline demographic and clinical variables were similar in both the study groups. Mean intraoperative blood loss and operative time was significantly higher among the patients who underwent cemented hemiarthroplasty as compared to uncemented group. Mean VAS score at the first month and sixth month follow up was significantly higher among patients in the uncemented group as compared to cemented group. Functional outcome was not significantly different according to the HHS performed 6 months post-operatively.
Conclusions: Patients in the cemented group had a higher intra-operative blood loss and longer operative time. However, the pain score on the VAS were significantly lower at first and sixth month follow up. Functional outcomes were not significantly different between the two study groups.

Kilka uwag o polskim socjolekcie przestępczym z okresu XVIII w. (glosa do informacji z „Gazety Warszawskiej” z 1778 r.)
Authors: Pacuła Jarosław
Published: December 2020

The subject of the article is the vocabulary of Polish criminals from the 18th century. The author reached for a press release from 1778. This press release is one of the oldest credentials of the Polish criminal jargon. The text describes a court hearing and only mentions the existence of specific communication style between villains that the court had to face. The news from “Gazeta Warszawska” contains eighteen lexemes. The author of this article discusses these words – he indicates the etymology of these jargonisms and presents a continued existence of the vocabulary in Polish (in the 19th and 20th centuries). Some remarks on the provenance of jargon terms may raise doubts among readers. The author is aware of this. However, he considers it significant to bend over the form and semantics of the accumulated vocabulary – researchers often refer to this press release from the 18th century, but do not focus on the history of the vocabulary of Polish criminals.
El modo verbal y las estructuras dialógicas asociadas a la pragmática como recurso dramatúrgico
Authors: de Ágreda Coso Eduardo
Published: December 2020

Dialogue and pragmatics are two widely connected spheres. On many occasions, they are interrelated in the creation of real discourse. Several of the structures most closely linked to the dialogic mode or dialogue are analysed in order to study their relationship with pragmatic definitions. Finally, the search for these exponents is broadened in some current plays written in the Spanish language, defining their type of use both in following up on pragmatic recommendations and in contesting them; as well as the analysis of these items as a dramaturgical resource.

La tragedia greca per bambini
Authors: Regagliolo Alberto
Published: December 2020

Children at eight / nine years old do not have yet a complete and clear idea of the death; nevertheless, one way to approach them to reflect on this sensitive issue can be through literature, in particular with the Greek tragedy. Introducing the Greek tragedy already in primary school inevitably brings the child closer to the theme of the education of death and loss as well as addresses the issue of suffering. However, it is necessary to identify within the classical repertoire of Sophocles, Euripides and Aeschylus some positive characters who can guide children in understanding some adapted tragic moments. Institutions, teachers and associations are essential in accompanying children on this journey to discover death and mourning through the school curriculum and other alternative activities. Some teaching possibilities fall within multisensory, experiential and playful education. Here a proposal is presented by analyzing some elements of the Antigone tragedy to be put into practice in primary school.
„Tłumacz między kulturami” – o Macieju Zarembie-Bielawskim
Authors: Chojnacki Hieronim
Published: December 2020

The paper refers to this trend of hermeneutics, whose representatives understand the interpretation as "articulated understanding". The texting, including paraphrase, the translation of someone else's language, is a prerequisite for the existence of cultural space, so that a critical view and cognitive verification of another narrative is possible. In the case of Maciej Zaremba, we are dealing with a reporter who writes Swedish about Swedes as an outsider, that is – keeping the distance and ability to see what the Swedes do not want or cannot see with their own eyes. It explores the areas of action of the "Swedish norm", visible from the outside, invisible "from the inside", just as the recognition of otherness and a peculiar value of some culture is possible for foreigners. Natives themselves are not able to recognize their standards (also assess) without the participation of outsiders. For Zaremba, writing is an act of disagreement with the uncritical acceptance of otherness, while using critical negation language and analytical tools with a more conceited intention than an overtly damning one. In this new incarnation, the author himself calls himself a "translator between cultures", whose strength lies in the fact that he has retained the ability to marvel, to expand his imagination and to seek new language means, to clearly separate facts from opinions. It is a vision of a man building a bridge between two cultures, and his ideal is subjects of resistance and non-toxic communication standards are his ideal.
FACILITATING COMMUNITY PARTICIPATION THROUGH CROWDSOURCING IN URBAN PLANNING PROCESSES: AN EXPLORATORY STUDY
Authors: Sinxadi Lindelwa
Published: December 2020

Fostering community participation by planners in South African municipalities poses a challenge during planning processes. Different levels of public apathy have been observed, and they continue to undermine the quest of municipalities to provide sustainable neighbourhoods. Also, value conflicts from different urban stakeholders resulting from this apathy can be ameliorated through improved participation of the communities in the planning processes. In bridging this gap, the paper seeks to explore different Crowdsourcing techniques to be employed in Mangaung to enable urban stakeholders’ participation in planning projects. As such, crowdsourcing, as a new web-based business model, is inclusive in the 4th Industrial Revolution and can be used as the best solution for community participation in planning projects. Based on the foregoing, this paper employs a case study research design and a coterie of techniques: semi-structured interviews and document reviews for data elicitation. Interviewees comprise of purposively recruited town planning and other municipal officials involved in planning projects. The emergent data will be analysed thematically. Expectedly, the findings hold immense implications for planning practitioners as well as other professionals and policymakers working within the urban planning and socio-economic development praxes in South African Municipalities.

Estria é uma atrofia tegumentar adquirida que surge quando as fibras elásticas e colágenas (responsáveis pela firmeza da pele) se rompem e formam “cicatrizes”. As estrias ocorrem mais em mulheres, podendo ser discretas ou exuberantes.quando há destruição de fibras elásticas e colágenas, que são responsáveis pela sustentação e elasticidade da pele. As estrias podem não ser causadas por doenças subjacentes. Algumas causas comuns são gravidez, ganho de peso na obesidade, estirões de crescimento em adolescentes, efeitos colaterais de medicamentos ou rápido aumento do músculo devido a musculação. A terapia de dióxido de carbono (CO2) refere-se à administração transcutânea e subcutânea de CO2 para fins terapêuticos. Caracteriza-se pelo uso terapêutico do gás carbônico medicinal com 99,9% de pureza administrado de forma subcutânea (percutânea) tendo como objetivo uma vasodilatação periférica e melhora da oxigenação tecidual, O objetivo deste estudo foi verificar os efeitos da carboxiterapia nas estrias albas localizadas na região glútea em mulheres jovens. Foram realizadas 10 aplicações de carboxiterapia em ambos os glúteos de cada paciente, sendo feitas avaliações e reavaliações nas pacientes para coleta de dados, sendo adotado um nível de confiança de 5% e 7 graus de liberdade, para este caso o valor tabelado foi t7;0,05 =1,90, para o teste unicaudal. Os resultados deste estudo , sugerem que a carboxiterapia é um recurso que trouxe resultados estatisticamente significantes a respeito da satisfação corporal das pacientes, colaborando com aspecto social e psicológico das mesmas, assim como uma melhor auto-estima com o decorrer das aplicações.
Cybersecurity and the Internet of Things
Authors: Biedermann Christopher
Published: December 2020

PURPOSE/THESIS: The purpose of this paper is to use a recent cyber-attack to highlight the current state of readiness of Internet of Things (IoT) technologies with regard to security vulnerabilities as well as fundamental – in the author’s opinion – changes that will need to take place within these industries and technologies to mitigate the overall cybersecurity risk. APPROACH/METHODS: The analysis of the findings from numerous existing published security studies. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS: The following conclusions were reached: (1) in the world becoming more and more interconnected through the web enabled devices (IoT devices), new forms of security threats have been developed; (2) at present IoT devices introduce a high level of vulnerability; (3) many of these risks may be mitigated with already existing technologies; (4) however, due to the fragmented and heterogeneous nature of the IoT devices, the implementation of even basic levels of security is more challenging than in the case of traditional Internet connected devices (e.g. personal computers); (5) the industry needs to face and address three key issues that will in turn help to mitigate the unique security threats posed by IoT devices, namely: the drive towards open standards, the industry cooperation and consolidation, and the improvement of consumer awareness. ORIGINALITY/VALUE: The value of the research is to highlight the security issues related to the Internet of Things and propose solutions that must be implemented to increase the level of security awareness within the IoT environment.
Using, Citing and Publishing Scholarly Content in the Digital Age: Case Study of Humanities Researchers
Authors: Nicholas David
Published: December 2020

PURPOSE: The research upon which this article is largely based comes from a year-long international study of trustworthiness in scholarly Communications in the digital age, Essentially, the main thrust of the project was to determine the impact of the digital transition and the new products it has ushered in, such as open access publications and the social media, on academic researchers’ scholarly practices. This paper focuses and reflects further on the disciplinary differences of scholarly researchers when it comes to using, citing and publishing and, especially, whether arts and humanities researchers are any different in the way they think and behave to their counterparts in the sciences and social sciences. APPROACH/METHODS: An international survey of over 3650 academic researchers examined how trustworthiness is determined when making decisions on scholarly reading, citing, and publishing in the digital age. The survey asked respondents whether or not they agreed with comments and ąuotes about scholarly behaviour obtained from pre-survey focus groups and interviews. Data from focus groups, interviews and the published literature are also used to explain further the results of the survey. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS: In generał, it was found that traditional methods and criteria remain important across the board. That is, researchers have moved inexorably from a print-based system to a digital system, but have not significantly changed the way they decide what to trust, where to publish, what to cite or use. Social media outlets and (non-peer reviewed) open access publications are not fully trusted. However, there were some significant differences according to the discipline of the respondent and this papers focuses upon these differences by comparing the views and behaviour of arts and humanities researchers with those from other disciplines. The main findings were: a) journals and the metrics that surround them are clearly not so important to humanities scholars, but nevertheless still pretty important; b) humanities researchers take a lot more care about what they use and where content comes from; c) humanities researchers look slightly more favourably on the social media. Originality/value: As far as it is known this is the first comprehensive study of digital humanities researchers and their decisions on what they use and cite and where they choose to publish.

Obszary badań współczesnej informatologii (nauki o informacji)
Authors: Sosińska-Kalata Barbara
Published: December 2020

Cel/teza: Celem artykułu jest przedstawienie kierunków rozwoju pola badawczego nauki o informacji (informatologii), od momentu jej wyodrębnienia się jako samodzielnej dyscypliny naukowej po czasy najnowsze.Koncepcja/metody badań: Na podstawie krytycznej analizy piśmiennictwa w chronologicznej kolejności przedyskutowano zmieniające się nazewnictwo dyscypliny i porównano kryjące się za tymi zmianami kolejne próby redefiniowania zadań i celów badawczych nauki o informacji. Prezentacja ewolucji koncepcji nauki o informacji stanowi tło dla przedyskutowania wyników analizy współczesnych nurtów badawczych w nauce o informacji, przeprowadzonej na próbie 361 artykułów opublikowanych w czterech najważniejszych dla tej dyscypliny badawczych czasopismach międzynarodowych: „Journal of American Society for Information Science and Technology”, „Journal of Information Science” i „Journal of Documentation” (2011–2012) oraz „Annual Review of InformationScience and Technology” (2007–2011). Wyniki i wnioski: Prześledzono kształtowanie się nauki o informacji od jej najwcześniejszej koncepcji sformułowanej przez Paula Otleta po współczesne interpretacyjne badania zachowań informacyjnych oraz próby integracji społecznej i technologicznej perspektywy badań informatologicznych. Zwrócono uwagę na narastającą multidyscyplinarność nauki o informacji oraz konsekwentny rozwój dwóch odrębnych obszarów badawczych: związanego z doskonaleniem technologii informacyjnej i skupionego na użytkowaniu informacji i zachowaniach informacyjnych. Mimo rosnącej różnorodności problematyki badawczej nauki o informacji jej niezmienną oś problemową stanowi zapewnianie skutecznego komunikowania utrwalonej wiedzy pomiędzy ludźmi w różnych środowiskach ich aktywności i przy użyciu możliwie najbardziej efektywnych metod i narzędzi. Analiza najnowszego piśmiennictwa dyscypliny potwierdziła, iż główne nurty badawcze stanowią nadal zagadnienia związane z rozwojem technologii informacyjnych i z poznawaniem zachowań informacyjnych oraz użytkowania informacji. Nie został natomiast jednoznacznie potwierdzony opisywany w literaturze zwrot ku badaniu zjawisk informacyjnych w świecie społecznym i w kontekście kulturowym. Badanie piśmiennictwa potwierdziło również wzrost zainteresowania teorią i metodologią nauki o informacji, co może być wyrazem rosnącej metodologicznej dojrzałości nauki o informacji, ale także obaw związanych z rozmywaniem się jej odrębności wśród coraz liczniejszych innych nauk, w których również podejmowane są badania współczesnych zjawisk informacyjnych.Oryginalność/Wartość poznawcza: Artykuł porządkuje wiedzę o dotychczasowym rozwoju nauki o informacji, uzupełniając ją o opartą na badaniach empirycznych charakterystykę najnowszych tendencji w kształtowaniu jej pola badawczego.

Information Science in Dialogue with Archival Science, Library Science and Museum Studies: The Recent Brazilian Experience
Authors: Araújo Carlos Alberto Ávila
Published: December 2020

Purpose/Thesis: In this article we discuss the theoretical common ground of archival science, library science and museum studies share with one another and with information science.Approach/Method: The article offers a systematic review of scholarship in each of the disciplines discussed, starting with foundational texts and progressing through different periods, geographical areas, and traditions of thought.Results and conclusions: We present the historical context in which the three disciplines were established and identify the twentieth-century theoretical developments that resulting rejection of the previously dominant paradigm. We conclude that the concept of information as studied recently may favor the advancement of theoretical perspectives in the three areas and points to the possibility of its epistemological dialogue.Research limitations: The literature review focused on the studies that had the most significant impact on Brazilian scholarship. It could be extended to other countries, and other theories.Practical implications: The results of the presented research may provide a conceptual basis for university courses in archival science, library science and museum studies, as they already do in Brazil. They may also inspire a comparison with other countries.Originality/Value: There are only few studies which combine the analysis of archival science, library science and museum studies; even less relate these disciplines to information science. We believe that considering the theoretical frameworks of all these disciplines together will be beneficial for all.
Complex Interdisciplinary Approach to Modelling Information Literacy Education
Authors: Koltay Tibor , Szőke-Milinte Enikő
Published: December 2020

Purpose/Thesis: This paper identifies the most important theoretical issues and frameworks that may serve as a basis for models of teaching information literacy.Approach/Methods: The paper reviews relevant subject literature published between 1990s and the present to outline the disciplinary context of information literacy in order to identify concepts that might be used to model teaching of information literacy.Results and conclusions: In the light of convergences and overlaps between different literacies, this paper considers various pedagogic approaches – phenomenographic, sociocultural, and discourse analytical, to combine them with the cognitive approach to information literacy. The literature review shows that all these approaches might contribute to a theoretical foundation of information literacy across different age groups and on different levels of education.Originality/Value: Teaching information literacy is examined from a cross-disciplinary perspective with a focus on information science and pedagogy.
The Global Book Publishing Market as an Interdisciplinary Research Field
Authors: Augustyn Kamila
Published: December 2020

Purpose/Thesis: The article characterizes the research on the global book publishing market to determine the extent of its interdisciplinarity.
Approach/Methods: This article uses quantitative and qualitative analysis of selected academic pa­pers, discipline profiles of their authors and of the journals to investigate which subject area dominate in scientific output of researchers and to establish the relationship between publishing studies and other disciplines on the field of the global book market. In order to prove the relatedness of journals bibliometric methods (co-citation, bibliographic coupling analysis of sources) and knowledge visu­alization technologies will be used.
Results and conclusions: The selected papers focused on book history and book culture, economics and technological aspects of book publishing, and users’ attitudes and preferences. The authors published in journals associated with disciplines such as media & communication studies and edu­cation (Publishing Research Quarterly, Journal of Scholarly Publishing, Learned Publishing), book studies (Logos) and information studies (Electronic Library, Journal of Documentation). In Corpus 1 (C1) there were co-cited trade magazines and academic journals on library and information science, in Corpus 2 (C2) – academic journals mostly focused on marketing and economics. Co-authored publications constituted 42% of C1 and 63% of C2. The study showed that the research of the global book publishing market is led by interdisciplinary researchers, but rarely by international teams.
Research limitations: The initial corpus of academic papers was narrowed down to 230 articles published in English between 2001 and 2018. The study did not include articles focusing on book markets in the countries that make only slight contributions to the global book publishing industry. The discipline classification adopted in the study follow that of the Scopus database.
Originality/Value: This study provides insight into the research on the global publishing market and proves that it is interdisciplinary.

Conceptual provisions of diversification of rural territories’ development in condition of decentralization
Authors: Khomiuk Nataliia
Published: December 2020

The purpose of the article is to develop conceptual provisions of diversification of development of rural territories in Ukraine in terms of decentralization. The paper proves that diversification should be considered as a means of ensuring integrated development of rural territories in connection with the need to create new mechanisms for interaction between all rural territories, the need to optimize existing agricultural activities and introduce new productions. The author argues that there are important reasons for the diversification of development of rural territories, including low level of material well-being and employment of rural residents, low profitability of agricultural enterprises, environmental pollution and degradation of soils. Ensuring the diversification of the development of rural territories is suggested to be based on the principles of unity and integrity, taking into account the process of decentralization, with due consideration of geographical, economic, ecological, ethnic and demographic characteristics of each rural territorial entity. The factors of containment of the process of diversification of rural territories’ development in terms of decentralization are identified, including the insufficient legislation, limited natural resources, low level of public awareness, lack of financing of rural development programs from the State budget; lack of entrepreneurial experience of population; lack of start-up capital to start a business. The factors stimulating the process of diversification of the development of rural territories are allocated, including the reform of decentralization; conducting business trainings; providing consulting assistance in the legal and economic spheres. The directions of diversification of development of rural territories are determined including the diversification of agricultural production, diversification of non-agricultural activities and diversification of sources of financing.
Approaches to estimating the efficiency and performance of the trade enterprise activity: modern view
Authors: Shymanovska-Dianych Lyudmyla , Pedchenko Nataliya
Published: December 2020

In the article, the existing variety of terms of "efficiency" and "performance" is structured and the features of each concept and the differences between them are defined. The article proves that it is necessary to divide the categories "performance" and "efficiency" for trade enterprises. Each of them has an independent value, equally important for the evaluation of their activities, and can not replace another concept. The authors prove that in a market economy, when the results of the work of some market actors depend on the clarity and coherence of the work of other actors, the problem of efficiency becomes decisive. The article argues that the key to the success of any enterprise, including commercial ones, lies in the continuous improvement of the efficiency and performance of their activities, systematic analysis, development and implementation of measures aimed at increasing its efficiency and performance. The approaches to assessing the efficiency and performance of the enterprise, which most fully cover the key criteria for assessing the efficiency and performance of different enterprises, are analyzed. Despite the obvious differences below the described approaches, they do not exclude each other, but only characterize the operation of the enterprise from different sides. These approaches are based on certain indicators by means of which the analysis, comparison and evaluation of the enterprise is carried out. The authors prove that this system of indicators is not ideal and does not take into account all characteristics of trade enterprises, which influence the efficiency and performance of their activities. Therefore, they suggest expanding this list, adding such indicators as an indicator of the overall assessment of the economic profitability of a trade company, the indicator of the effectiveness of the use of retail space and indirect indicators of profitability.
