Cosmos-life-consciousness, the role of information
Authors: Pereira Elcio Fabio Soares
Published: November 2024

The Introduction contains comments on some aspects considered relevant to the work  and considerations are made about information and its transmission based on the literature. As shown in the development of the work, many questions considered pertinents  arose, some of which yet not answered. The author presents concepts formulated by Shannon that served as the basis for the Information Theory, a methodology formulated by Kolmogorov for estimating the amount of information and some cases in which he discusses aspects related to information transmission. In the Discussion and Conclusions section, he presents his arguments for formulating hypotheses that he considers important for the advancement of science, which are the following: -The need, for universal evolution, of the development of a cognitive being that, by capturing physical signals, transforms them into relevant information, with meaning. The existence of a cognitive being, whatever this organism may be, that is capable of receiving any signals and transforming them into information with meaning , becomes necessary considering that mathematical and physical laws and principles are not eternal and that they are necessary for the formation of matter. Over time, a primary consciousness along the lines of human consciousness would be formed; -The emergence of, the existence in the universe of any more ordered object that distinguishes itself from the others in its surroundings, already constitutes conclusive proof of the presence of information and perhaps, in some cases, even of an incipient consciousness destined to evolve. In these terms, it seems that the existence of a Universal Primary Consciousness is inevitably necessary. -The admission that the operationalization for the materialization of atoms is similar to the operationalization for the materialization of proteins, leads the author to suggest similar mechanisms in the two systems considered. This implies the possible existence of  non-biological DNA and genes, which would constitute a mechanism for the storage of information, and also the existence of a universal genome.
Mitigating Cyber-Attacks and Threats in South African Commercial Banks
Authors: Mphahlele Tlhologelo , Chigada Joel
Published: November 2024

The increasing incidence of cyber crimes has become a pressing issue for society, businesses, and governments. Responding to the growing demand for digitisation from customers and investors, South African institutions have become targets of sophisticated cyber attacks. The financial sector, considered part of the country's critical infrastructure, has not been immune. The frequency of attacks on commercial banks in South Africa has risen, with several successful cyber attacks causing substantial harm. This paper explores the interventions commercial banks use in South Africa through a qualitative research lens. The results indicate that while technical interventions provide value, there are still opportunities for improvement in the human and process elements of the interventions. This highlights the need for a holistic approach to cyber security, incorporating technology, people, and processes to mitigate the risks posed by cyber threats effectively.

A STUDY ON THE INFLUENCE MECHANISM OF ORGANIZATIONAL ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS ON THE INNOVATION CAPABILITY OF WORKERS’ KNOWLEDGE
Authors: Ge Yiyao
Published: November 2024

This study investigates how work pressure influences the innovative behavior of R&D personnel in enterprises. The resource conservation theory categorizes work pressure into two types: challenging and blocking, and examines their direct influence on the innovative behavior of R&D personnel, along with the mediating role of work vitality and work burnout. We further explore the moderating role of organizational support and organizational error management. We collect data through questionnaire surveys and perform empirical analysis using statistical tools like SPSS. The research results help enterprises better understand and manage the work pressure of R&D personnel, thereby promoting the generation of innovative behavior.
STUDY ON THE INFLUENCE OF CUSTOMER PERCEIVED VALUE ON REPEATED PURCHASE BEHAVIOR OF KNOWLEDGE PAYMENT IN ONLINE SHOPPING ENVIRONMENT: AN EMPIRICAL ANALYSIS BASED ON ONLINE EDUCATION PLATFORM
Authors: Li Jiaxin
Published: November 2024

Nowadays, with the rapid development of information technology, numerous platforms and groups have entered the field of knowledge payment, thereby initiating a new trend. Despite the recognition of some users, there is still a low purchase or repeat purchase behavior, and many companies face a low fan conversion rate and a scarcity of loyal fans. Therefore, this paper aims to explore the impact of perceived value on consumers' repeated purchase behavior of knowledge so as to propose constructive suggestions for the development of the knowledge payment industry.
We introduce customer recognition and brand effect as mediating and moderating variables in this study, and construct an analytical model for knowledge-based repeat purchase behavior on an online education platform. We find that each dimension of perceived value completely mediates the influence on the mediating variable "sense of identity", with the exception of the educational function value, which only partially mediates the influence. Enhancing the brand effect strengthens the relationship between each dimension and consumers' repeated purchase intention, thereby verifying the existence of the moderating effect. However, the social value dimension's influence did not significantly change, making it impossible to verify its moderating effect.
THE INFLUENCE MECHANISM OF SELF-LEADERSHIP ON ENTREPRENEURIAL RESILIENCE OF CHINESE AGRICULTURE ENTREPRENEURS
Authors: Yueyang Guo , Wenhao Luo
Published: November 2024

This study investigates how self-leadership influences entrepreneurial resilience among Chinese agricultural entrepreneurs. We constructed a theoretical model incorporating self-leadership, entrepreneurial identity, flow experience, perceived government entrepreneurial support, and entrepreneurial resilience, based on the Cognitive-Affective Personality System theory and self-leadership theory. We collected data through a questionnaire survey of 427 agricultural entrepreneurs and analyzed it using SPSS and AMOS. The findings indicate that: (1) self-leadership has a significant positive impact on entrepreneurial resilience, entrepreneurial identity, and flow experience; (2) entrepreneurial identity and flow experience play partial mediating roles between self-leadership and entrepreneurial resilience; and (3) perceived government entrepreneurial support positively moderates the relationships between entrepreneurial identity, flow experience, and entrepreneurial resilience. This study enriches the theoretical research in the field of agricultural entrepreneurship and provides practical guidance for enhancing the entrepreneurial resilience of agricultural entrepreneurs.

RESEARCH ON THE INFLUENCE OF CARBON EMISSION RIGHT TRADING ON THE GREEN TECHNOLOGY INNOVATION OF ENTERPRISES
Authors: Feng Haiying , Wang Lei
Published: November 2024

The paper uses China's carbon emission trading pilot as a kind of natural experiment and panel data from 2128 listed A-share manufacturing companies in Shanghai and Shenzhen from 2010 to 2021. It then uses difference-in-difference (DID) to look at how the carbon emission trading policy affects businesses' efforts to come up with new green technologies. The research shows that the carbon emission trading policy has significantly promoted the green technology innovation of enterprises, and the conclusion remains stable even after the parallel trend test, PSM-DID test, and placebo test. Furthermore, we discovered that rising carbon prices reinforce the positive role of carbon emission trading policies in promoting green technology innovation in enterprises.
Repensar o esquecimento
Authors: Serra Alice Mara
Published: November 2024

Obras de arte contemporânea, como as de Anselm Kiefer, Ai Weiwei, Ibrahim Mahama,Daniel Senise, Ana Pi e Taata Imê, incitam a pensar diferencialmente memória e esquecimento através das disposições singulares de fragmentos e ruínas. A fim de evidenciar o contributo dessas obras para pensar o contemporâneo, este artigo propõe-se,primeiramente, a situar a especificidade dos respectivos temas em elaborações filosóficascontemporâneas. Apoiando-se em considerações de Bergson, Benjamin, Ricœur, Assmann, Simmel e Derrida, sublinha-se em que medida acepções vitalistas ou continuístas da memória e da lembrança cederam espaço ao problema do esquecimento, ao relevo do caráter fragmentário da experiência histórica e ao aprofundamento da noção de ruína. Será então tematizado como o contemporâneo indicia-se diferencialmente em fragmentos e ruínas nas obras de arte mencionadas.
Desarrollo de las soft skills en centros educativos de Educación Primaria de la Comunidad de Madrid
Authors: Albertos Jesús E. , Perines Haylen
Published: November 2024

En las últimas décadas ha existido un interés creciente sobre las soft skills. Si bien no existe una definición única al respecto, lo que se reitera en los alcances del concepto es que estas habilidades complementan a las técnicas, que desarrollan la personalidad, que inciden en el desarrollo académico y laboral del alumno y que también tienen repercusión en su bienestar e integración social. El presente estudio tiene como principal objetivo analizar el grado de incorporación de soft skills en los centros educativos de Educación Primaria. Para lograrlo, se analizaron de forma aleatoria las páginas web de 403 centros educativos de la Comunidad de Madrid. Los resultados muestran que los centros educativos exponen programas e innovaciones en prácticamente en un 80% de las páginas consultadas. En cuanto a las soft skills, en torno al 25% de los centros poseen actividades que las desarrollan. En los centros públicos las actividades más relevantes son las que tienen que ver con la comunicación, mientras que en los centros concertados y privados las que tienen más énfasis son las relacionadas con el aprendizaje cooperativo. Se concluye que, aunque hay un gran interés por este tipo de competencias, su desarrollo todavía es incipiente dentro los centros educativos.

Authors: Herrera Piñuelas Isamar , García Ferrandis Ignacio
Published: November 2024

El entorno como recurso didáctico es una línea de investigación consolidada en didáctica de las ciencias que permite fortalecer contenidos (conceptuales, procedimentales y actitudinales) trabajados en las aulas y que posibilita un enfoque globalizador de la enseñanza de las ciencias al integrar elementos naturales y sociales. Esta investigación pretende determinar si los manuales de texto de los territorios donde se localizan la Milpa mexicana y la Huerta valenciana, incorporan el entorno próximo y en particular estos espacios agrícolas, en la enseñanza-aprendizaje de las ciencias en Educación Primaria. Se analizaron un total de 75 manuales mexicanos y 96 españoles. La Huerta y la Milpa son paisajes tradicionales con grandes posibilidades didácticas, pero poco utilizados en manuales de Educación Primaria como recurso para la contextualización de la enseñanza-aprendizaje de las ciencias.

ntroduction. Cement concrete, like most other porous materials, easily absorbs and retains moisture. Moisture can be absorbed by the reinforced concrete foundation if there are defects in the external waterproofing layer, leading to the development of mold, mildew, efflorescence, reinforcement corrosion, and damage to the finishing materials in the basement. The greatest danger is that frozen water expands and, through its pressure, destroys the structure from within. Waterproofing additives in cement concrete are used to improve the strength, corrosion resistance, impermeability, and frost resistance of concrete. Problem Statement. Ensuring the reliability of road pavement in the post-war period. Objective. To investigate the feasibility of using a waterproofing additive in a cement concrete mix using the example of the colmatant additive Penetron Admix.

Introduction. In the modern world, the transport infrastructure of cities faces significant challenges related to the growth of traffic intensity, congestion and the need to ensure road safety. Among the wide range of engineering solutions and technologies aimed at solving these problems, it is worth highlighting the issue of justifying the choice of planning solutions in places of the highest concentration of traffic flows - transport hubs. International experience shows that the construction of roundabouts is one of the ways to optimize traffic, reduce congestion and improve road safety. Therefore, it is important to consider this type of planning solutions for transport hubs in terms of the feasibility of their use on the city's street and road network.
Effects of Global Supply Chain Pressure on Sentiment, Expectation, and Uncertainty: A VAR Approach
Authors: Romero-Ramírez Héctor
Published: November 2024

This paper studies the relationship of global supply chain pressure with consumer sentiment, inflation expectation, and monetary policy uncertainty in the United States. A sample from January 1998 to January 2024 is used, and this paper uses a Vector Autoregression (VAR) approach based on the method proposed by Toda and Yamamoto (1995). The Granger causality test suggests that the predictions of inflation expectation based on its own past values and the past values of the global supply chain pressure are better predictions of inflation expectation than just using the past observations of inflation expectation. In contrast, Impulse Response Functions suggest that surprise increases in  global supply chain pressure lead to increased inflation expectation and monetary policy uncertainty; this shock lasts up to two years. Meanwhile, the Impulse Response Functions suggest that surprise increases in the global supply chain pressure decrease consumer sentiment (confidence), lasting up to two and a half years. Afterward, the impact converges back to zero. Additionally, the Variance Decomposition results suggest that by the final period, the impulses of the global supply chain pressure explain over 22%, 7%, and 44% of the variation of consumer sentiment, monetary policy uncertainty, and inflation expectation, respectively.

Mifepristone-Misoprostol Regimen vs. Surgical Abortion: Evaluating Pregnancy Termination Options in Bangladesh
Authors: Jahan Dr. Israt , Colonel Lieutenant , Alam Dr. Md Fakhrul , Sharmi Dr. Rumana Hasan
Published: November 2024

Background: Access to safe and effective abortion services plays a vital role in safeguarding women's reproductive health, ultimately contributing to their overall well-being. This is particularly relevant in Bangladesh, where the legality of abortion is contingent upon specific circumstances. Therefore, ensuring women have the autonomy to choose between safe and effective termination methods becomes crucial. Objective: The study aims to see explore the efficacy, safety, and accessibility of mifepristone-misoprostol regimen and surgical abortion methods within the context of Bangladesh. Methods: This investigation employed a cross-sectional observational design, conducted within the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at Dhaka National Medical College in Bangladesh. The study spanned one year, commencing in March 2023 and concluding in February 2024. To ensure a representative sample of the patient population seeking abortion services, consecutive sampling was utilized. This approach involved recruiting all patients admitted during the designated timeframe who fulfilled the pre-established inclusion and exclusion criteria. Ultimately, the study enrolled 104 participants, a sample size determined by the number of admissions fitting the criteria within the one year. Results: The study found no significant difference in age distribution between women choosing medical or surgical abortion, with both groups mainly consisting of women aged 18-25. Overall complication rates were similar, but medical abortion had a higher need for additional procedures and longer stays, while surgical abortion required more bleeding observation. Pain experiences differed significantly, with no women in the medical group reporting no pain and a higher prevalence of moderate pain compared to surgical abortion. Women undergoing medical abortion were slightly more likely to experience complications overall, and primigravid women (first pregnancy) were significantly more likely to experience complications than multigravid women. Conclusion: Our findings suggest comparable safety profiles for both surgical and medical abortion procedures within the studied population. This indicates that surgical abortion can be a safe and effective option alongside medical abortion, potentially expanding the range of choices offered to women.
The Landscape of Longing and Belonging
Authors: Klapuri Tintti
Published: November 2024

The article examines Kola Sami literature, focusing on the autobiographical nature poetry written by the Skolt Sami author Askold Bazhanov (1934–2012) in the 1970s–2000s. The focus is on landscape and temporality in the contexts of Sami and Soviet literature, especially the literatures of small northern peoples. What characterises Bazhanov’s nature-centred texts in general is the complex way in which temporality and human and non-human existence are manifested in the northern landscape described. As a case study, the article examines nostalgic discourses, which in Bazhanov’s texts are associated with longing for the childhood landscape in Sami villages that were submerged in the 1960s. These discourses are often combined with romanticised idyllic depictions of reindeer herder life, which I analyse as arctic pastorals. In Bazhanov’s nature poetry, the temporality of the landscape, particularly the Sami history conveyed within the landscape that is described as strongly local, is an important means by which the identity and agency of the poems’ speakers are constructed and reinforced.

Authors:   AEM ( Azerbaijan Science Center ), Məmmədova Rübabə
Published: November 2024

Xülasə Dünyaya inteqrasiyanın nəticəsi olaraq, xarici dillərin tədrisi metodlarında, tədrisin forma və vasitələrində köklu dəyişikliklər baş verir. Son zamanlarda dilin tədrisində və öyrənilməsində materialların əhəmiyyəti geniş şəkildə qəbul edilmişdir. Bəzi tədqiqatçıların fikrincə, bu gün bütün dünyada hər hansı bir xarici dil tədrisi orijinal dil materiallarından geniş istifadə etmədən uğurlu ola bilməz. 1970-ci illərin əvvəllərindən başlayaraq, köməkçi dərs vəsaiti olaraq istifadə olunan lentlər, disklər kimi audio alətlər; filmlər, fotoşəkillər, slaydlar kimi vizual alətlər və jurnallar, qəzetlər kimi nəşrlər orijinal materiallar adlandırıldı. Məqalədə xarici dilin tədrisində orijinal materialların istifadəsi, orijinal dil materiallarının resursları, orijinal dil materiallarının nümunələri, tədris vasitəsi kimi faydaları, problemləri və on­ların dil öyrənənlər üçün əhəmiyyəti haqqında məlumat verilir. Həmçinin məqalədə sinifdə tədrisi təkmilləşdirmək məqsədilə istifadə olunan sosial media və şəbəkələrin müsbət və mənfi cəhət­lərindən bəhs edilir, son zamanlar xarici dilin tədrisində orijinal materiallardan daha çox istifadə olunması, bu materiallar olmadan dil tədrisində uğur qazanmağın mümkün olmaması vurğulanır. Məqalədən aydın olur ki, orijinal materiallar xarici dilin tədrisində mühüm rol oynayır, ənənəvi dərsləri zənginləşdirir və öyrənənlər üçün çox maraqlı ola bilər.

Published: November 2024

Xülasə Müəssisənin səmərəliliyinin strateji menecment prinsiplərinin əhəmiyyətli dərəcədə fərqlənməsi ida­rəetmə mexanizmlərinin strukturunda və müasir müəssisələrin inkişafında sürətli təkamül də­yişik­likləri ilə əlaqədardır. Bu xüsusiyyətlər gələcəkdə müəssisənin fəaliyyətinin strateji menec­ment prinsiplərinin sayının genişlənməsi ilə müəyyən edilir. Müəssisənin səmərəliliyinin strateji idarə edilməsi məqsədlərinə nail olmaq mərhələsində səmə­rəlilik və nəticəlilik prinsipi kimi prinsiplər nəzərə alınmalıdır. Müəssisənin strateji idarə edilməsi prosesi həmişə təsərrüfat subyektinin iqtisadi və maliyyə fəaliyyətinin yaxşılaşdırılması ehtiyacını özündə ehtiva etməlidir. Aparılan araşdırmalar göstərir ki, müasir şəraitdə istənilən müəssisənin təsərrüfat-istehsal fəaliyyətinin səmərəliliyi xeyli dərəcədə strateji menecmentin hansı səviyyədə tətbiq edilməsindən asılı­dır. Ona görə də fəaliyyəti prosesində strateji menecmentin xüsusiyyətlərinin və prinsiplərinin nə­zərə alınması və tətbiqi hər bir müəssisənin qarşısında duran əsas məsələlərdən biri hesab edilmə­lidir. Ancaq nəzərə almaq lazımdır ki, vahid universal strateji menecment olmadığı kimi, bütün müəssisələr üçün vahid strategiya da yoxdur. Ona görə də müəssisədə strateji menecment tətbiq edilərkən müəssisənin fəaliyyət xüsusiyyətləri, potensial imkanları, strateji menecmentin uyğunluq, nə­zarət, mürəkkəblik və səmərəlilik kimi əsas prinsipləri nəzərə alınmalıdır.

Published: November 2024

Xülasə Şirkətlərin xarici iqtisadi fəaliyyətinin təhlili və audit qiymətləndirilməsi, müəssisələrin bey­nəlxalq bazarda fəaliyyət göstərməsi ilə əlaqədar maliyyə və əməliyyat risklərini idarə etməyə kömək edən vacib prosesdir. Bunun üçün öncə xarici iqtisadi fəaliyyət ətraflı təhlil olunmalı, audit üçün ətraflı məlumatlar toplusu hazırlanmalı, daha sonra audit qiymətləndirilməsi aparılmalıdır. İqtisadiyyatın globalizasiya olunduğu bir dövrdə, şirkətlər beynəlxalq bazarlarda fəaliyyət göstərir və bu, onları müxtəlif maliyyə, siyasi və idarəetmə riskləri ilə üzləşməyə məcbur edir. Elə bu səbəbdən, xarici iqtisadi fəaliyyətin təhlili və audit prosesləri şirkətlər üçün çox əhəmiyyətlidir. İqtisadi fəaliyyətin regional və beynəlxalq bazarlarda genişlənməsi, maliyyə göstəricilərinin dəyiş­məsi, valyuta riski və məzənnələrinin dəyişkənliyi kimi faktorlar, şirkətlər üçün təhlil və audit proseslərinin vacibliyini artırır. Bu proseslər, şirkətin fəaliyyətində potensial riskləri idarə etmək və effektivləşdirmək üçün əhəmiyyətli bir alətdir.

Published: November 2024

Abstract It is known that the study of dialects is one of the urgent issues of today's linguistics. World linguistics has made significant progress in the field of dialectology in the study of dialects, in creating a perfect areal description of dialectal phenomena. From the conducted research, a scientific conclusion can be drawn that it is possible to talk about the forms of language tools, i.e. the methods of expression, in the expression of all philosophical categories in the ancient monuments and in our current language. Like all philosophical concepts, the meaning of space and time is a linguistic image of the subjective perception of the objective world. That is why the linguistic research conducted in that direction requires communication with the sciences of philosophy, logic and psychology, leaving the framework of linguistics. Time-space-calendar words form a separate system in ancient Turkish written texts, and their comparative study with our current language is studied as an urgent issue of linguistics. Also "anda//anta" (at that time), "yil (year), kish (winter), kiçë//keçe (night), kuntuz (day), tun ortusi (midnight) ” words find their reflection in ancient monuments and lay the foundation for the emergence of representatives of the Turkic language, in particular, the Uzbek and Azerbaijani languages. In the system of means of expressing spatial concepts in the language, the phonetic space is considered the beginning, the beginning. That is, the phonetic space can be called the basis of space expression through language. At the same time, the grouping of words, morphological forms, syntactic units according to the time and space content, analysis of the specific aspects of those language units, many manifestations of concepts denoting the time and space content in the Azerbaijani language. The explanation of the forms of the edges was carried out based on the requirements of theoretical linguistics.
