Young Children’s Concepts of Good and Evil before and during the COVID-19 Pandemic: Qualitative Research Study
Authors: Hanesová Dana
Published: September 2021

The purpose of this study was to determine changes in 6–8-year-old children’s concepts of good and evil, indicating some shifts in their religious and spiritual development due to closing schools during the COVID-19 pandemic. In Slovakia, religious education (RE) was one of the most neglected school subjects during the pandemic. Almost 300 children were asked to project their associations with good and evil either visually or verbally. This procedure was used several times before 2017 and after the first and second pandemic waves. The content of the children’s associations from all three periods was analyzed, categorized, quantitatively summarized, and compared. The numbers of children’s associations of good and evil with supernatural beings, religious rituals, and personal faith during the pandemic were reduced several times in comparison with 2017. The numbers of associations of good and evil with interpersonal relationships, inner human qualities and nature increased. The virus appeared as a concept of evil only in the second wave of the pandemic. The results point to a weakened intensity of children’s use of religious language and their religious development in the period 2020–2021, which might be one of the consequences of the limited teaching of RE during the pandemic.

Ecumenism and Communism in the Romanian Context: Fr. Andre Scrima in the Archives of the Securitate
Authors: Morariu Iuliu-Marius
Published: September 2021

Based on information offered by the archives of the former Romanian Securitate, this paper presents the way in which the image and actions of Fr. Andre Scrima, one of the most important Romanian theologians from abroad (and the representative of the Ecumenical Patriarch Athenagoras to the Second Vatican Council), were a topic of interest for the aforementioned surveillance institution during the Romanian Communist regime. At the same time, the emphasis was on the relevance of the ecumenical area for the regime of Bucharest and its interest in using it in order to create the illusion of democracy and freedom. Ninety-five years after the birth of the Romanian theologian, who was not only the disciple of the Romanian Patriarch Justinian and of the aforementioned Greek Patriarch but also an important writer, professor, and abbot, this article aims to bring attention to his life and work, and to provide an investigation into an aspect of his biography which has not been investigated by contemporary researchers from the fields of theology and history until now.

Published: September 2021

Shenzhen Bay (SZB), situated between Shenzhen and Hong Kong, is a typical bay system. The water quality of the bay is notably affected by domestic and industrial discharge. Rivers and various types of drainage outlets carry terrestrial pollutants into SZB, resulting in elevated concentrations of nitrogen and phosphorous as well as relatively poor water quality. For over 200 years, Hong Kong has practiced oyster farming within brackish estuarine waters. Oyster farming is a type of mariculture which includes oyster breeding in oyster rafts. Remote sensing is a monitoring technique characterized by large spatial coverage, high traceability, and low cost, making it advantageous over conventional point-based and ship-borne monitoring methods. In this study, remote-sensing models were established using machine-learning algorithms to retrieve key water-quality factors (dissolved inorganic nitrogen (DIN) and orthophosphate-phosphorous (PO4_P) concentrations, CDIN and CPO4_P, respectively) from long-term time-series data acquired by the Landsat satellites. (1) Spatially, the water quality in Inner SZB was worse than that in Outer SZB. (2) The water quality temporarily deteriorated between the end of the 20th century and the beginning of the 21st century; then it gradually improved in the late 2000s. (3) Monitoring the water quality in an oyster-farming area revealed that oyster farming did not adversely affect the water quality. (4) The result of monitoring the water quality in river estuaries in SZB shows that water quality was mainly affected by river input.
Automatic Point Cloud Registration for Large Outdoor Scenes Using a Priori Semantic Information
Authors: Li Jian , Huang Shuowen , Cui Hao , Ma Yurong , Chen Xiaolong
Published: September 2021

As an important and fundamental step in 3D reconstruction, point cloud registration aims to find rigid transformations that register two point sets. The major challenge in point cloud registration techniques is finding correct correspondences in the scenes that may contain many repetitive structures and noise. This paper is primarily concerned with improving registration using a priori semantic information in the search for correspondences. In particular, we present a new point cloud registration pipeline for large, outdoor scenes that takes advantage of semantic segmentation. Our method consisted of extracting semantic segments from point clouds using an efficient deep neural network, then detecting the key points of the point cloud and using a feature descriptor to get the initial correspondence set, and, finally, applying a Random Sample Consensus (RANSAC) strategy to estimate the transformations that align segments with the same labels. Instead of using all points to estimate a global alignment, our method aligned two point clouds using transformations calculated by each segment with the highest inlier ratio. We evaluated our method on the publicly available Whu-TLS registration data set. These experiments demonstrate how a priori semantic information improves registration in terms of precision and speed.

The topography of Neptune’s large icy moon Triton could reveal important clues to its internal evolution, but has been difficult to determine. New global digital color maps for Triton have been produced as well as topographic data for <40% of the surface using stereogrammetry and photoclinometry. Triton is most likely a captured Kuiper Belt dwarf planet, similar though slightly larger in size and density to Pluto, and a likely ocean moon that exhibited plume activity during Voyager 2′s visit in 1989. No surface features or regional deviations of greater than ±1 km amplitude are found. Volatile ices in the southern terrains may take the form of extended lobate deposits 300–500 km across as well as dispersed bright materials that appear to embay local topography. Limb hazes may correlate with these deposits, indicating possible surface–atmosphere exchange. Triton’s topography contrasts with high relief up to 6 km observed by New Horizons on Pluto. Low relief of (cryo)volcanic features on Triton contrasts with high-standing massifs on Pluto, implying different viscosity materials. Solid-state convection occurs on both and at similar horizontal scales but in very different materials. Triton’s low relief is consistent with evolution of an ice shell subjected to high heat flow levels and may strengthen the case of an internal ocean on this active body.
A Time Sequence Images Matching Method Based on the Siamese Network
Authors: Tao Bo , Huang Licheng , Zhao Haoyi , Li Gongfa , Tong Xiliang
Published: September 2021

The similar analysis of time sequence images to achieve image matching is a foundation of tasks in dynamic environments, such as multi-object tracking and dynamic gesture recognition. Therefore, we propose a matching method of time sequence images based on the Siamese network. Inspired by comparative learning, two different comparative parts are designed and embedded in the network. The first part makes a comparison between the input image pairs to generate the correlation matrix. The second part compares the correlation matrix, which is the output of the first comparison part, with a template, in order to calculate the similarity. The improved loss function is used to constrain the image matching and similarity calculation. After experimental verification, we found that it not only performs better, but also has some ability to estimate the camera pose.

Nagy szilárdságú acéllemezek és hegesztett terítékek alakítási jellegzetességei
Authors: Béres Gábor J. , Végvári Ferenc , Danyi József
Published: September 2021

Az utóbbi években rendkívüli módon megnőtt a járművek tömegének, üzemanyag-fogyasztásának és károsanyag-kibocsátásának csökkentési igénye a járműiparban. E törekvések többek között az újonnan kifejlesztett nagy és különlegesen nagy szilárdságú acéllemezeknek a járműkarosszéria-építésben történő alkalmazása révén jutnak érvényre. Ezeknek az anyagoknak a felhasználásával ugyanis a jármű vezetőjének és utasainak biztonsága csökkentett keresztmetszetek (lemezvastagságok) mellett is megfelelő szintű maradhat. A cikkben három különböző, DP600, DP800 és DP1000 típusú, nagy szilárdságú lemezanyag mélyhúzhatóságának és alakítás utáni visszarugózásának kísérleti vizsgálati eredményeire világítunk rá. A vizsgálatainkat különböző terítékekből méretre szabott, hegesztett lemezekre (Tailor Welded Blanks) is kiterjesztettük, hogy ezen újszerű terítéktípusok viselkedéséről is képet kapjunk. Eredményeinkből az látható, hogy a mélyhúzhatóság, a terítékek szilárdságának növekedésével, továbbá méretre szabott lemezek esetén a terítéket alkotó lemezszegmensek közötti szilárdságkülönbség növekedésével csökken. A hajlítás utáni viselkedés terén a nagyobb szilárdságú lemezanyagok nagyobb visszarugózást is mutattak, míg a hegesztett terítékeknél egy átmeneti visszarugózási szög érték volt tapasztalható a hegesztési varrat környezetében.

Background: The epidemiological–microbiological characteristics and effective intervention measures in an outbreak due to extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae in a neonatal intensive care unit are described. Materials and methods: Cases from June 22, 2018 to February 11, 2019 were analyzed. Microbiological analysis of intestinal carriage of ESBL-producing K. pneumoniae and environmental samples was conducted. Strain relationships were studied by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE). Results: A 35-week outbreak affecting 41 patients, with eight infected, 33 colonized, and two deceased patients occurred. Two stages of the outbreak were observed with differences in the frequency of intestinal carriage of ESBL-producing K. pneumoniae. The same genetic subtype was seen in patient strains and was different from strains isolated from the environment. Deficiencies in contact precautions, hand hygiene, and handling of breast milk were observed. Conclusions: A monoclonal outbreak by ESBL-producing K. pneumoniae that occurred in two phases and the different control measures in each of the stages is described. Effective control measures are mainly based on improving compliance with standard precautions and contact precautions, and other complementary measures are described such as proper handling of breast milk, periodic carriage studies, and the generation of three patient cohorts.

BUILDING LEADERSHIP COMPETENCE WHILE TRAINING MASTERS OF EDUCATION IN UNIVERSITIES OF AUSTRALIA
Authors: Seminikhyna N.
Published: September 2021

Academic leadership plays a crucial role in promoting teaching and learning in higher education. In today's changing world future teachers should play a leading role in professional development. One of the main tasks of master's student training is innovative improvement of university education, which provides gradual and continuous development of general (universal) competencies, competitiveness in the foreign labor market, creating favorable conditions for professional development and development of leadership competence. The aim of our article is to identify and analyze the organizational and pedagogical features of leadership qualities in training masters of education at Australian universities. Leadership plays an important role in every aspect of students' lives, as they go through many stages of career development, where they need leadership skills, primarily related to employment issues and conflicts between what is desired and useful. Therefore, it is important that the teacher learns to navigate the models and styles of leadership, understand the impact of leadership on the personality development, gain the basics of leadership ethics and, as a result, create their own philosophy of leadership.Over the last four decades, Australia's higher education system has undergone significant changes. This was facilitated by social, economic and demographic changes in society and the country. It is they who have led to government reforms in Australia's education policy that promote quality and affordable higher education that builds, including leadership competence. Leadership skills help to overcome challenges, solve problems and analyze career choices. Therefore, it is important that leaders of leaders, i.e research and teaching staff, develop leadership skills in students. Higher education in Australia is responding quickly to the demands and needs of educational circles, expanding opportunities for educators to improve the quality of their training, in particular through postgraduate leadership programs, which are characterized by their flexibility and diversity. They have the opportunity to get a holistic view of pedagogical activities not only from the position of a teacher who implements educational policy, formed externally, but also from the position of the subject of educational policy of the state.It has been found that Australian universities offer teachers postgraduate leadership programs, including master's programs, leadership certification programs as an additional specialization, and leadership programs at the education specialist level. Leadership education is an integral part of leadership development and requires a structured and formal educational environment, which allows through specially organized training to form and improve the leadership qualities of future teachers. The cognitive component is an important component of leadership education.
THEACHER’S CHARISMA: NATURE OR NURTURE?
Authors: Pomohaibo V. , Pomohaibo A.
Published: September 2021

Charisma is an inherent exceptional human authority, which consists of the ability to subdue others to one's will. Throughout the history of human civilization, charismatic individuals have played a significant role in all spheres of human activity ‒ politics, education, science, production, art, philosophy, religion, and so on. The article analyzes the current state of research on teacher's charisma. This phenomenon has long been known in education, but recently it has attracted more and more attention because it significantly increases learning performance. But research on teacher’s charisma is still rare, as its presence and variations are difficult to identify and operate on. The most important feature of a charismatic teacher is that in his professional activity, first of all, he tries to form and develop dynamic positive relationships with all his pupils, regardless of their abilities, gender, or social origin. Such a teacher becomes a role model, authority, and source of inspiration. Students of higher education institutions perceive the teacher's charisma somewhat differently. For them, the key features of an ideal teacher are professional competence and positive character traits. Not only does a competent teacher know his subject well, but he is also able to present it to students so that they understand the most difficult issues. Students consider friendliness, accessibility, patience, enthusiasm, self-discipline, and decency to be positive traits of an ideal teacher. Genetic studies of the teacher's charisma are completely absent. Although usual life experience shows that charisma is hereditary, its heritability remains unknown, which makes it impossible to determine how much charisma development depends on learning and upbringing. There are still no studies aimed at identifying genetic factors, not only charisma altogether but also the teacher's charisma in particular. The exacerbation of the problem of the education quality in today's rapidly changing world makes genetic research of pedagogical charisma very relevant.
INTERACTION OF PSYCHOLOGIST AND COACH IN THE PROCESS OF PROFESSIONAL ACTIVITY
Authors: Demus Ya.
Published: September 2021

To achieve success, each sport requires an excellent state of formation of physical and mental qualities. In the case when the sports training of athletes is at the same level, the main and decisive moment for winning the competition is psychological readiness.

Athletes are trained in different areas, but very often the inability to cope with their emotions can lead to defeat, despite years of training. With the active participation of a psychologist in the training process, it becomes possible to characterize the individual characteristics of the athlete, the formation and development of mental qualities necessary for victory. One of the activities of a sports psychologist is the timeliness of determining the features of the psyche, the development of an individual plan for the development of abilities, strategies for pre-competitive and competitive behavior.

Psychodiagnostics plays an important role in the development of the athlete's personality and further activities of the coach. Thanks to psychodiagnostics there is a formation of psychological and pedagogical and psychohygienic recommendations, planning of system of actions on athletes. Psychodiagnostics aims to study the athlete. In this process, the coach helps to objectively assess the personality of the athlete. Psychohygienic recommendations of a psychologist and a coach are closely related. After all, in the system "coach-athlete-psychologist" they directly affect the mental state of the athlete.

There are many examples in the history of sports when a timely word, pause, gesture, support decided the fate of persistent confrontation. Every athlete in his professional career goes through crisis periods, which are caused by various reasons: defeat in the competition, transition to another team, change of coach, problems in personal life.

Diversity in the work of the coach, the importance of a number of auxiliary functions in the work of the latter (administration, regulation, management) does not allow to adequately assess the problems and troubles of the athlete as a person. This is the task of a sports psychologist - to create an atmosphere of complete trust and mutual understanding, to establish contact with the athlete to reveal personal problems, which will effectively affect his condition, help the athlete understand their problems, find a way out of difficult situations sports achievements.
THE ART OF STAGE SPEECH IN THE CONTEXT OF CULTURAL AND LEISURE ACTIVITY OF A CULTUROLOGIST
Authors: Lymarenko L.
Published: September 2021

The relevance of the study is caused by the fact that today there is a significant interest of scientists, educators in the educational process of higher education institutions that train culturologists and have a wide range of opportunities to involve student youth in various socio-cultural activities. The author of this paper suggests that the professional training of future culturologists should be aimed at personal cultural orientation in the modern world; comprehension of the set of cultural achievements of mankind; mutual understanding in cooperation with different people, and conducting a highly qualified dialogue with partners of other cultures. It is proved that professional training of culturologists as participants of high communicative culture will be more effective and efficient if they master the main tool of their professional activity – the art of stage speech, which is considered to be an exemplary speech, the highest level of professionalism of speakers, actors, directors, teachers, journalists, culturists, organizers of cultural and artistic projects and other. The author notes that the technique of speech as one of the sections of stage speech is an essential basic component of the professional skills of a culturologist. Quite an essential issue in the article is the substantiation of stage speech as a cultural phenomenon of the culturologist's personality, his socio-cultural activity. The organisation and holding of various cultural and artistic projects are based on communication. The author draws attention to the fact that mastering the course "The Art of Stage Speech and Public Speaking" gives the future culturologist the opportunity to: 1) master the knowledge of the laws of technique and speech logic, the formation of practical communicative skills on the material of different genre and style of dramatic forms; 2) the ability to build a public speech skilfully and persuade listeners, in this way ensuring the performer of successful communication with the audience and its activation.

The practical experience has been generalized, which shows that: the success of any cultural and artistic project, the theatrical mass program depends on a successful combination of personal qualities and professional competencies of the specialist, among which an important place is given to stage speech; the skill of the performer on the stage, first of all, is determined by the skill of mastering the art of stage speech; having respect for verbal action as the main means of creating stage life, the organizer of cultural and leisure activities acquires a rare force weapon, the strongest means of influencing a person and not only his consciousness but also feelings.

HOW UNDERGRADUATE OF PEDAGOGY LEARNS?
Authors: Karovych A.
Published: September 2021

We live in a dynamically changing time, when a person must learn throughout life, constantly improve and adapt to new conditions. The ability to learn is one of the four foundations of education. The article presents selected excerpts from empirical research aimed primarily at understanding students' knowledge of teaching methods (mainly in the field of knowledge), as well as the most commonly used methods of memorizing material. The diagnostic study was performed by questionnaire. The questionnaire contained 39 closed and open questions. 130 students of pedagogical specialties of the University of Łód (took part in the survey (48 full-time and 82 part-time students). The experiment showed that students named (on average) two factors (positive and negative) that affect the learning process, only 24 out of 130 mentioned three factors. Respondents do not know teaching methods, in particular effective memorization: 80% of all students use multiple repetition, and other methods (prior knowledge, creating graphs, charts, tables, figures, links, chains of associations, funny stories, rhymes, the use of various colors, mental maps, mnemonics, etc. are used less. Most students (117 out of 130) admit that they have never sought knowledge about the learning process. Students are influenced by external (the need to prepare for exams, tests, practical classes), rather than internal motivation (the desire for self-improvement, professional self-realization). In many respects, full-time students showed more knowledge than part-time students. In addition, full-time students are slightly more likely to study voluntarily (regardless of academic background), not just before an exam or test. In both full-time and part-time study, students focus on gaining qualifications rather than knowledge.

Thus, students’ knowledge of the educational process is insignificant; they know only the main factors that affect the educational process, and a few well-known methods of learning. In the future, it may negatively affect the effectiveness of their professional and pedagogical activities. It is necessary to identify the reasons of the gained results: lack of interest in the subject, misunderstanding of the curriculum, indifference, and so on. The author is convinced that it is necessary to change the approach to learning and develop the need for self-improvement.

Formaldehyde is a carcinogenic and aggressive agent mainly to epithelial tissues. However, for rearing aquatic organisms its use is common for the treatment of fungi and parasites, and the use of incorrect doses can harm the health and life of these animals. The fish species Danio rerio and the tadpoles of the species Lithobates catesbeianus are internationally recognized for use in aquatic toxicology tests. We aimed identify the effects caused by formaldehyde on the gills of these two experimental models used in aquatic toxicology, verifying the susceptibility of both species. Acute and chronic tests with formaldehyde were conducted for experiment. We found that the formaldehyde in the higher concentration caused injuries to the gills of both fish and tadpoles, with a loss and displacement of epithelium, vascular congestion, telangiectasia and lamellar epithelial lifting/edema (possible aneurysm), hyperplasia and hypertrophy of epithelial cells, lamellar fusion in addition to the proliferation of mucus-secreting cells and chloride cells. Despite structural differences, the histological changes caused by chronic exposure to formaldehyde in sublethal concentrations were similar in both organisms and we recommend reviewing its use in prophylaxis and in prolonged treatments with this chemical.

El estudio de carga global de enfermedad de 2015 determinó que la pérdida de audición es la cuarta causa de discapacidad globalmente, afectando a 6-8% de la población mundial. La pérdida de audición periférica se clasifica en conductiva, neurosensorial o mixta. Su principal efecto es la afectación de la comunicación y el principal factor de riesgo es la edad. Dentro de las causas de pérdida de la audición se encuentran procesos degenerativos relacionados con la edad, mutaciones genéticas, exposición a ruidos altos o medicamentos ototóxicos y condiciones crónicas. Su inicio es insidioso y debido a la estigmatización de la enfermedad el diagnóstico usualmente es tardío. La rehabilitación de la persona con pérdida de audición debe manejarse de forma integral; sumado al uso de aparatos auditivos, debe asegurarse el bienestar psicológico del paciente y su compatibilidad con el dispositivo para de ese modo, mejorar la calidad de vida del paciente.
Endometriosis.

Published: September 2021

La endometriosis es una de las patologías ginecológicas más comunes y de las que presentan mayor afectación en la vida de la mujer. Es una enfermedad en donde las glándulas o el estroma endometrial se encuentran fuera de la cavidad uterina y se caracteriza principalmente por dolor pélvico crónico asociado principalmente al ciclo menstrual y que puede llegar a ser incapacitante. Las personas que viven con esta enfermedad deben atravesar un proceso insidioso, en ocasiones descrito como un ‘’calvario’’ hasta llegar a un diagnóstico certero y aun así después de encontrar la causa de su dolor el manejo posterior llega a ser de gran impacto en la calidad de vida de la mujer. El enfoque principal de este artículo es exaltar la afectación que sufren las personas con endometriosis desde distintitas esferas: física, mental, social, familiar y también el estigma que envuelve a estas personas. Se desea generar consciencia principalmente en el personal de salud sobre una enfermedad tan frecuente y tan importante de ser manejada de forma eficaz, oportuna y multidisciplinaria para así lograr romper el estigma que tanto afecta a estas personas, por consecuente poder mejorar la calidad de vida y la atención que se les brinda tanto al enfermo como al entorno que le envuelve.
Temperature Susceptibility and Rheological Aging Characteristics of the Bitumen Having Different Penetration Grades

The performance of the asphalt pavement highly depends on the properties of the bitumen. Therefore, it is important to classify the bitumen’s characteristics in order to ensure the selected binder will provide the desired properties to the asphalt pavement. The Penetration grade, which categorizes the asphalt binder depending on the penetration value of the sample, is one of the most popular system for classification. Since the system considers the penetration value, the bituminous materials having different penetration grade is expected to have different physical, chemical and rheological properties. Within the scope of this study, four bitumen having different penetration grades as 50/70, 70/100, 150/200 and 160/220 were investigated by conventional and rheological analyses. The Penetration Index (PI) and the Rheological Aging Index (RAI) of the samples were calculated to evaluate the effects of penetration grade system on temperature susceptibility and rheological aging characteristics of the samples. As a result, the binders having lower penetration grades are found to be better in terms of rheological aging performance and temperature susceptibility. Furthermore, a very high correlation was found between RAI and PI values of the samples by statistical analysis.

This study uses the gravity model to analyze the homogeneous and heterogeneous effect of institutional quality and development on bilateral exports. We use the panel data of 61countries for the period 2000 to 2016 and employ the Poisson Pseudo Maximum Liklihood (PPML) econometric technique with a High-Dimensional fixed effect (HDFE) for an estimation that allows the analysis in the presence of high dimensional fixed effects. The findings reveal that the direct effect of institutional quality and level of development on bilateral exports is positive and significant. Further, the institutional quality and the level of development of the exporter country have more impact on bilateral exports than that of the importer country. Our estimation results of homogeneity of institutions show that when both trading countries share the same level of institutional quality, it boosts the bilateral exports.  The major finding of this study reveals that the interaction effect of institutional quality and level of development on bilateral exports is positive and significant. High value of interaction term of exporter economy and low value of importer country suggest that interaction effect of institutional quality and level of development on bilateral exports of exporter country have a greater impact than the interaction effect of institutional quality and level of development of importer country due to having the more production and exports facilities in exporter country. Based on the findings, some essential policies are also recommended, followed by some future research gaps.
