Published: September 2024

Background Kailo is a community-centred research and design initiative that aims to improve adolescent mental health by addressing its wider social determinants. Unlike conventional interventions that often neglect systemic factors, Kailo employs a complex systems approach to identify and address the social causes of poor adolescent mental health in two pilot sites. This protocol outlines a developmental realist-informed evaluation that will develop, test, and refine the programme theory underpinning the Kailo framework. This evaluation will generate recommendations for the enhancement of Kailo before it is implemented in additional sites. Methods A developmental realist-informed evaluation will be conducted to investigate how and why Kailo works, for whom, and under what circumstances. This mixed-methods evaluation will engage key members of the Kailo consortium, local stakeholders, and young people who have interacted with Kailo. The initial phase incorporates a rapid realist synthesis, interviews with key informants, observations, and document analyses to formulate the initial programme theory. The second phase will employ semi-structured interviews, focus group discussions, observations, and analyses of routinely collected data to test the initial programme theory. The final phase will use focus group discussions to refine and consolidate the initial programme theory. Given the developmental nature of this evaluation, this programme theory will refine the implementation of the intervention in the pilot sites and generate recommendations to improve future versions of the Kailo framework. Discussion This study will explore the mechanisms by which the implementation of Kailo improves adolescent mental health by facilitating place-based systems change in the two pilot locations. This theory-based evaluation will illuminate the primary contextual conditions and mechanisms which produce intended (and unintended) outcomes to inform the future development of the Kailo framework. Moreover, the methodological approach used may contribute to broader understanding of how to implement and evaluate complex interventions designed to improve public health.
The problem of (re)generation of the past in Juri Lotman’s semiotics
Authors: Kim Soo Hwan
Published: September 2024

This article investigates the past-generating mechanism in Lotman’s semiotics by formulating a typology that distinguishes between two types of past-generating models – Marxian (as the repetitive compulsion of the past) and Benjaminian (as the redemption of the past) – and traces Lotman’s views and perspectives that resonate with these two models. Not only was Lotman acutely aware of the obsession with repetition in the history of Russia, he actively contemplated the possibility of breaking free from and renewing such repetition as well. While Lotman’s awareness of this was conceptualized as the inevitable persistence of a “dualistic structure” in the dynamics of Russian culture, his contemplation, on the other hand, was framed as an issue of transition from dualistic to ternary models. Defining the alternative approach of Lotman’s to the historical past as ‘the aesthetic approach’, this article examines his speculation on the specific cultural mechanism called ‘smuta’ as an exceptional example of Lotman’s interest in the “lost pathway” of the past. Through these explorations, the discussion illuminates Lotman as a thinker who, to use his own phrase, could see both “the allure and weakness of the Russian type of culture”.

Foreign and domestic systems for evaluating the effectiveness of innovative activity of municipalities
Authors: Zhukova Anna
Published: September 2024

This article is devoted to evaluating the effectiveness of the activities of municipal authorities and officials. Public authorities periodically make changes to the domestic system for evaluating the effectiveness of municipalities, but a number of unresolved problems in this area still remain. Therefore, there is a need to study foreign methods of evaluating the activities of local governments.
The article examines foreign practices of evaluating the effectiveness of municipalities in countries such as the USA (Florida, California and Texas), Great Britain, Germany, Japan and China. The author notes that in many foreign countries a system of balanced and cascaded indicators is used and benchmarking mechanisms are used.
The article focuses on the CAF model and the Project Review System, which is included in the Deming and Shewhart PDCA/PDSA management cycle.
The author of the article notes that the passive method with a unified assessment system prevails in the Russian Federation, as evidenced by a single list of indicators that is used to evaluate all municipalities of the country.
The author of the article also analyzes the existing problems of the domestic assessment system and identifies areas for its improvement.
In conclusion, the article notes that foreign and domestic experience in evaluating the effectiveness of municipal authorities shows that each system has both disadvantages and advantages. Today, Russia needs to take into account foreign assessment methods and implement best practices, thereby making the assessment system of local authorities more correct, transparent and fair.
Fixed point theory on Banach spheres
Authors: Kimura Yasunori , Sudo Shuta
Published: September 2024

In this paper, we consider and study the concept of the Banach sphere. The usual spherical distance of the unit sphere of
a Hilbert space is defined by its inner product and the inverse of the cosine function. Therefore, we cannot apply this notion to Banach spheres in general.
We first introduce a two-variable function like a spherical distance and a notion of convex combination on a Banach sphere.
After that, we define a projection onto a subset of a Banach sphere, and prove a fixed point theorem and fixed point approximation for a mapping having
a kind of nonspreadingness. Our work is a challenge to construct optimisation theory on spherical planes without geodesics.

Authors: Kim Shin-mi
Published: September 2024

Sleep impairment with agitated behavior is common in the demented elderly. The gravity of sleep and behavioral disturbances is evident from the fact that night time agitation is the primary cause of institutionalization of the demented elderly. Both problems are related to circadian rhythm changes and decreased exposure to zeitgebers. Bright light is known to be a strong zeitgeber of human circadian rhythm.Consequently, bright light has been emerged as a possible therapeutic alternative for the problems of sleep and behavioral disturbances.The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of evening bright light delivered by fluorescent lamps on female demented elderly with disturbed sleep patterns, accompanied by agitated behavior, in a community care facility.The study was conducted in cross-over trial with, twenty-one subjects and outcome variables derived from tympanic temperature, sleep, agitation and cognition were analyzed. The results were as follows :1. Temperature : Treatment effect was not statistically significant for the mean, peak, nadir, and amplitude (P>0.10). No statistically significant changes of the occurrence numbers of peak at 4PM were found after treatment, but the occurrence numbers of nadir at 4 AM increased significantly (P=0.09) after treatment.2. Sleep : Treatment effect was not statistically significant for the sleep period at night, total sleep time, wake after sleep onset, percentage of sleep during night, sleep time at night, wake up time in the morning. Nap ttme (P-0.01) and nap numbeis(P=0.02) decreased significantly after treatment.3. Agitation scores decreased significantly after treatmentCP^O.OO).4. Cognition scores were not changed significantly after treatment(P = 0.82).Evening bright light has significantly decreased the agitated behavior of the demented elderly, but were found to be effective on only a few outcome measures of temperature and sleep activity rhythm, and ineffective on cognition It can be concluded that bright light is a potent therapeutic intervention for the sleep and behavioral disturbances of the demented elderly.

Background and purpose : Cognitivebehavioral grouptherapy has become the most popular form of treatment for binge eaters, as it has been demonstrated to be a highly cost-effective method of treating bulimic patients. Unfortunately drop-out rate from group CBT is relatively high. The purpose of this study was to identify predictors of drop-out from cognitive-behavioral group therapy for binge eaters.Prior to treatment, all subjects completed the EDI-2(Eating Disorders Inventory-2), the Rosenberg's Self-Esteem Scale, the BDI(Beck Depression Inventory), and interviewed the binge and purge frequency per week.In this study, among 41 binge eaters who participated 10-week cognitive-behavioral group therapy, drop-out rate was 36.6%(15 binge eaters). Binge eaters were all women and mean ages of them were 24 years and 95.1% of them were unmarried. 75.6% of them were bulimia nervosa, and the remainders were anorexia nervosa and binge eating disorders.To examine the predictors of drop-out, discriminant analysis was used. The completers were significantly higher in binge frequency and were lower in interpersonal distrust than drop-outs, and in duration of illness the completers also tended to be longer but these univariate differences didn't reach statistical significance. Wilk's Lamda was .776 indicating that differences between the completers and drop-outs were significant. The discriminant function analysis was able to successfully predict drop-outs and completers of treatment in 73.2% of cases. Predicted dropouts were correctly identified in 86.7% of cases whereas predicted completers were correctly identified in 65.4% of cases.In conclusion, binge frequency, interpersonal distrust, and duration of illness predicted drop-out from cognitive-behavioral grouptherapy for binge eaters. This results would enable clinicians to more effectively utilize pretreatment assessment information in planning treatment for binge eaters. If patients at risk for dropping out group CBT can be identified at assessment, they may be referred instead to individual CBT, where the likelihood of dropping out is lower. Further research with the larger sample size, and included family factors and personality variables was suggested.
