No Heightened Musical Pitch Weighting For Tone Language Speakers in Early Childhood
Authors: Creel Sarah C. , Mizrahi Reina , Escobedo Alicia G. , Zhao Li , Heyman Gail D.
Published: February 2023

Numerous studies suggest that speakers of some tone languages show advantages in musical pitch processing compared to non-tone language speakers. A recent study in adults (Jasmin et al., 2021) suggests that in addition to heightened pitch sensitivity, tone language speakers weight pitch information more strongly than other auditory cues (amplitude, duration) in both linguistic and nonlinguistic settings compared to non-tone language speakers. The current study asks whether pitch upweighting is evident in early childhood. To test this, two groups of 3- to 5-year-old children—tone-language speakers (n = 48), a group previously shown to have a perceptual advantage in musical pitch tasks (Creel et al., 2018), and non-tone-language speakers (n = 48)—took part in a musical “word learning” task. Children associated two cartoon characters with two brief musical phrases differing in both musical instrument and contour. If tone language speakers weight pitch more strongly, cue conflict trials should show stronger pitch responding than for non-tone speakers. In contrast to both adult speakers’ stronger pitch weighting and child and adult pitch perception advantages, tone-language-speaking children did not show greater weighting of pitch information than non-tone-language speaking children. This suggests a slow developmental course for pitch reweighting, contrasting with apparent early emergence of pitch sensitivity.
Cognitive Mechanisms in Temporally Controlled Rhythm Reading

Published: February 2023

Music-reading research has not yet fully grasped the variety and roles of different cognitive mechanisms that underlie visual processing of music notation; instead, studies have often explored one factor at a time. Based on prior research, we identified three possible cognitive mechanisms regarding visual processing during music reading: symbol comprehension, visual anticipation, and symbol performance demands. We also summed up the eye-movement indicators of each mechanism. We then asked which of the three cognitive mechanisms were needed to explain how note symbols are visually processed during temporally controlled rhythm reading. In our eye-tracking study, twenty-nine participants performed simple rhythm-tapping tasks, in which the relative complexity of consecutive rhythm symbols was systematically varied. Eye-time span (i.e., “looking ahead”) and first-pass fixation time at target symbols were analyzed with linear mixed-effects modeling. As a result, the mechanisms symbol comprehension and visual anticipation found support in our empirical data, whereas evidence for symbol performance demands was more ambiguous. Future studies could continue from here by exploring the interplay of these and other possible mechanisms; in general, we argue that music-reading research should begin to emphasize the systematic creating and testing of cognitive models of eye movements in music reading.

We report a theoretical analysis on the influence of operation temperature on the static and dynamic properties of an InP/InGaAsP semiconductor Laser amplifier (SLA). We use a numerical wideband steady-state model and numerical algorithm, to study the (I-P) curves, gain bandwidth, noise figure, outpout noise power and outpout OSNR in a range between - 20 °C and 100 °C. InP/InGaAsP SLA exhibited a thershold curent as low as 55mA at 100 °C and the characteristic temperature (T0) of the SLA was found to be 142.8 0C, which confirms the high temperature operation of the device. Moreover, the results show that InP/InGaAsP SLA can cover 3dB operating at signal wavelengths between 1.54µm and 1.58µm with gains of up to 25dB at -20 0C. This peak slightly decreases with temperature. Furthermore, a high out power saturation of 7 dB was exhabited at -20 °C and a low noise figure of around 2.8 dB was achieved in the deviece. Finally, our model shows the elegant performance of InGaAsP/InP SLA in the range between -20 °C and 100 °C, which makes it a promising candidate for integrated photonics.

Cobalt-ferrite (CoFe2O4) based nanoparticles are appropriate candidates for electrical, optical, and magnetic applications for electrical appliances. In the current study, a coprecipitation technique was used to prepare Zinc doped cobalt ferrites with compositions CoFe2−xZnxO4 (x=0.1-0.5) at various percentages using Zinc and Co-nitrate as precursors. The analysis of crystal phase structure, hkl planes, average crystalline size, volume, and lattice parameters of the unit cell of CoFe2-xZnxO4 doped (NPs) was carried under X-ray diffraction (XRD). X-ray spectra analysis, FT-IR Spectra, UV Visible Spectra, and SEM studies shown that the as-synthesized powders were contained of nano-crystallite size (42– 53nm) cubic-spinel phase with irregularly-structure. Calcination at low temperature (80˚C) of the precursor followed through sintering (500°C for 3h) con-sequence in a single-phase cubic-spinel shape with an average particle size of 42-53nm, as shown by scanning electron micrographs images. Sharp peaks and intense diff raction features in XRD pattern show that an increase in Zn doping concentration in cobalt spinel ferrite increases the crystalline behavior of the cubical spine phase. In cubical structure ferrites crystal lattices, the absorption band at low frequency is noticed above 400cm-1 but in the range of 300- 600cm-1 of the Fourier Transform Infrared bands were attributed to the tremblant of the ions of metal. The absorbance results of UV Spectra indicate that Zinc doped Cobalt Ferrite specimen had symbolic absorbance in the range of 660-900nm wavelength range of the conspicuous region. The Zn-doped cobalt-ferrite have a high strain derivative that could be a prospective material for electrical devices.

We report the effect of magnetic field on photocatalytic performance for four kinds of photocatalysts(γ-Bi2MoO6, SrMoO4, TiO2 and g-C3N4). Different magnetic field effects are observed for four photocatalysts. For example, for γ-Bi2MoO6 sample, an improvement in the photocatalytic efficiency is observed, however, the otherwise phenomenon is for SrMoO4 one. For TiO2, little change of photocatalytic performance is observed. For g-C3N4 sample, the photocatalytic performance increases firstly and then decreases with increasing magnetic field. The synergy effect of Lortenz force and dissolved oxygen for photocatalytic process under magnetic field is discussed

In this study, pure and Zn-doped nickel oxide thin films have been prepared on glass slides using the sol-gel spin coating process. The effects of Zn doping level concentration (0, 1, 3, and 5%) on structural, morphological, optical, and dielectric properties were studied. The X-ray diffraction patterns revealed that all synthesized films are polycrystalline and correspond to the cubic crystal structure with predominant orientation along the (200) plane. Besides, it was found that with the increase of Zn doping concentration, a variation in the values of several structural parameters such as the crystallite size, the lattice constant, and the strain was observed. The surface morphology examined by scanning electron microscope (SEM) reveals that the deposited film becomes dense, smooth, and agglomeration is increased as the Zn doping level increases. FT-IR analyses confirm the existence of Ni-O bonds. From UV-vis measurements, it is found that all samples exhibit highly optical transmission, more than 80% in the visible region, while the optical band gap values vary from 3.76 to 3.93eV as a function of Zn doping content. Further, the refractive index, extinction coefficient, and dielectric constants were also determined.

Polypyrrol was prepared by electrochemical polymerization. Polypyrrol morphology has been investigated by FE-SEM and it shows a polypyrrol nanofibre network. By doping PPy nanofibers with different MW-CNT proportions (10%, 20%, 30%, 40% vol.ratio), nanocomposites were obtained. When adding MW-CNT with PPy, the nanotubes particles on the nanofibre network gradually grew in proportion to added ratio, and hence a clear change in the nanocomposite structure was observed. The electrochemical measurements indicate that the nanocomposites demonstrate strongly pseudocapacitive activity. The capacitance of pure PPy was (19.23 Fg-1), while the maximum value of capacitance (153 Fg-1) was observed when 30% MW-CNT was doped with pure PPy.

The article presents the results of morphology research of the organomineral formations of the residents of Dnipropetrovsk region and proposes the typification of uroliths according to the peculiarities of their morphology. Determination of the structure and mineral composition of uroliths is necessary for urologists for a reasonable appointment of therapeutic and preventive actions to the patient. Existing Ukrainian and world standards for the diagnosis and treatment of patients with urolithiasis provide for mineralogical examination of urolithiasis for each patient. At the same time, now in Ukraine the implementation of such studies is proactive and sporadic, which leads to an increase in the number of diseases and their severity. Due to the fact that organomineral concretions in general and uroliths in particular are biomineral formations, and minerals are the subject of mineralogy and crystallography, it is necessary, first of all, to consider some features of mineral morphology in relation to urolith formation. Along with genetically determined mineral formations of living organisms, pathogenic biominerals are also widespread, in particular, urinary and kidney stones - uroliths, which are a natural consequence of the development of urolithiasis. It has been established that polymineral formations predominate in the composition of the studied uroliths of the inhabitants of the Dnipropetrovsk region. Various combinations of oxalates (vevellite, veddilite), phosphates (mainly hydroxyl apatite - collophane), urate (uric acid, uric acid dihydrate), organic matter, and in some cases purines (xanthine) are most common in the studied samples. Also, in all the studied samples there are certain defects of the minerals forming them. The morphology of organomineral formations is largely determined by the position of their location. The central part of the organomineral formations of the studied samples was usually represented by accumulations of organic matter containing a highly dispersed mineral component. In addition, a characteristic feature of all mineral individuals without exception is their large-scale microblocking and the presence of inclusions of organic matter.
Global and local effects of seismic activity in the ionosphere

We considered ionospheric effects of powerful seismic events using total electron content (TEC) maps of the ionosphere (http:// www.aiub.unibe.ch/download/CODE/) for the northern hemisphere, except the polar region, in the winter seasons of 2012— 2018. It is shown that the seismic-ionospheric effect is global, which is superimposed by local effects over the epicenters of individual earthquakes (EQ). Temporal TEC variations near the time of strong EQs at a great distance from their epicenters (global effect) consist of two maxima: the precursor and the «aftershock» maximum. In TEC variations over the EQ epicenter (local effect), only a precursor is usually registered, the amplitude of which at night (on average, ~ 8 %) is about twice as high as during the day. Always (locally and globally) after a positive surge in TEC, its reduced values are observed for several days. The maximum amplitude zone of the seismic-ionospheric effect belongs to the middle latitudes, especially 35...40° N, and within this zone at longitudes near 30° W (Mid-Atlantic ridge) and 140...150° E (Japanese islands and adjacent waters of the Pacific Ocean). Latitudinal amplitude maxima of the seismic-ionospheric effect are in good agreement with the latitudinal maxima of the EQ number in both geographic and geomagnetic coordinate systems. Changes in the EQ number and, consequently, the effect in the ionosphere on geomagnetic coordinates are more ordered, which indicates a significant impact on the seismicity of the same processes at the boundary of the liquid core and lower mantle, which form the Earth’s magnetic field. In addition to seismic belts and zones of mid-ocean ridges, an increase in TEC has been recorded along the so-called lineaments, marking the weakened zones of the Earth’s crust with increased flows of deep gases. The correspondence between the spatial features of seismicity and the seismic-ionospheric effect testifies in favor of the «radon» mechanism of lithosphere-ionosphere coupling and indirectly confirms the role of deep gases in the formation of seismicity planetary features.

The results of the study of legal problems, which are relevant for ensuring the long-term sustainability of space activities, the course of which has been declared by the UN as a guide, are highlighted. Legal relations are singled out, which on the one hand, allow revitalizing of the commercial component of the space industry of the domestic economy, and on the other — contribute to the establishment of responsible, sustainable behaviour of all subjects of space activity on a global scale. From this point of view, the specific problems of public-private partnership in the space industry are considered, proposals are put forward regarding the legal model for the regulation of remote sensing of the Earth, challenges to international and national law in connection with cyber threats to space activities, including the use of blockchain technology, are emphasized, the international legal problems of regulating the extraction of space resources from the point of view of ensuring the sustainability of this activity and the need to develop legal mechanisms, norms, and principles of responsible human behaviour in space are accentuated. As a result of the study, the following were proposed: 1) legal means of liberalizing the participation of state-owned enterprises as subjects and not objects of public-private partnerships, 2) a model for the regulation of relations to provide Ukraine with EO data, including through public procurement by the National Space Facilities Сontrol and Test Center, 3) international legal and national legal mechanisms for combating cyber threats to space activities, 4) rules that should be developed to regulate activities for the extraction of space resources, as well as 5) rules for ensuring responsible behaviour in space.

Expandiendo la (in)formación urbanística a través del mapeo reflexivo. La experiencia del Diario Urbano
Authors: Elinbaum Pablo , Barchi Milagros
Published: February 2023

El urbanismo no es solo un conjunto de técnicas para diagnosticar los problemas de las ciudades e intervenir en ellas, sino también una construcción social que se nutre, entre otras cosas, de las vivencias cotidianas. Sin embargo, en la enseñanza del urbanismo persiste el enfoque positivista del quehacer profesional y un conocimiento de lo ‘urbano’ basado en el formalismo, la zonificación de los usos del suelo y los niveles de planeamiento, soslayando, entre otras cosas, el dinamismo de los procesos de urbanización, los vectores pluridireccionales de la movilidad cotidiana y la inmediatez de las comunicaciones telemáticas supralocales. A partir de la experiencia autobiográfica de los estudiantes de un taller de urbanismo, y tomando como caso el Área Metropolitana de Buenos Aires, esta investigación apunta a indagar en los modos de representar la experiencia cotidiana de las redes, lugares, territorios y escalas, a través de la técnica del mapeo reflexivo, para expandir el entendimiento de los patrones socio-espaciales de los tejidos urbanos.

Contra-radicalization was designed to counter radical ideology, primarily transnational ideology in Indonesia. In its realization, it has two approaches, soft and hard, with two methods, online and offline. However, based on the fact that those radical ideologies are still present virtually and in reality. Thus, this research aims to describe how the program is run by BNPT (National Counter Terrorism Agency) using its strategy, method, and approaches. This research used Grindle’s implementation theory of policy content, with the method used being descriptive and qualitative. The results showed that there are indicators challenging the implementation of the program such as the clarity of Interest affected, lack of resources used, and the characteristic of the regime.
Adat Space in Muslim-Christian Conflict Resolution at Minang Realm, West Sumatera, Indonesia

Published: February 2023

Adat or custom, which was recommended as an ethnic and religious platforms reconciliation of post-violence in Eastern part of Indonesia, has become a resolution to the occurred conflict; hence, it does not lead to violence between the MM and NK communities in Nagari Sungai Buluh, Padang Pariaman, West Sumatra. Adat has encouraged the conflicting parties to find the root of causes and to formulate various approved settlement models. The purpose of this research is to prove that adat has been used in formulating various resolution models according to the types of conflicts that occur. The research data comes primarily from various documents belonging to the nagari which are strengthened by interviews with the parties involved in conflict resolution. The thematic mapping of the documents was confirmed and explored through interviews with participants from both the MM and NK communities. The results of the study revealed that the conflict resolution model offered by adat ranges from prohibitions and restrictions on raising pigs to a total ban but provides a number of payments and replaces them with ducks. Deliberation, consensus and mediation, which are the main mechanisms of adat in conflict resolution, have become guarantees and protection for minority communities. In line with that, the article suggests the need for synergy with religious values; hence, the function of the religious values is more significant in resolving religious conflicts that occur between the majority and minority communities. The space for social conflict, religious conflict and even customary conflict itself is increasingly open in the future along with the strengthening of conservatism both on a local, national and global scale so that various models of conflict resolution are needed, including custom-based ones.

ANALYSIS OF SOCIO-ECONOMIC SYSTEMS USING QUANTUM-LIKE MATHEMATICAL MODELS BASED ON STATUS FUNCTIONS. PART I
Authors: Veshneva I. V , Bolshakov A. A
Published: February 2023

The basic concepts of classical probability, negative probability, fuzzy sets are considered with appropriate analogies of the quantum mechanical approach to create mathematical models for describing social phenomena. It also briefly describes the features of the application of the theory of intentionality, which uses the concept of institutionality for social phenomena. At the same time, institutionality is understood as a property of consciousness directed at objects and states of affairs in the real world. The concept of collective institutionality is singled out, which forms social facts arising from the collective impact of members of society. The concept of status is given, which denotes a set of characteristic values of a subject or object that determine its position in the system. The features and scope for fuzzy models are described, which are used for the mathematical description of linguistic terms and intentionality in estimating the probabilities of events in fuzzy set theory. In addition, the concept of negative probability and the possibility of using it to describe social events are described. The following is an example illustrating the concept of a complex-valued function and its use to measure the characteristics of socio-economic processes. In conclusion, the concept of status functions is introduced for comparison with membership functions and wave functions.
FEATURES SELECTION FOR USE IN PREDICTIVE ANALYTICS MODELS OF REGIONS FOREIGN ECONOMIC ACTIVITY
Authors: Kislyakov A. N
Published: February 2023

The work is devoted to the actual problem of designing and selecting features in the tasks of constructing predictive models of indicators of foreign economic activity of regions. The aim of the work is to develop a methodology for the use of graph models and dimensionality reduction methods for the selection of features in the construction of predictive analytics models of foreign economic activity of regions. As an approach to describe the structure of foreign economic relations, graph models were used that implement the possibility of building on the basis of the UMAP dimension reduction algorithm. To build an optimal graph based on the UMAP algorithm, it is necessary to vary the number of nearest neighbors for each vertex and the minimum metric distance to establish a connection between the vertices. It is shown that the clique symmetry coefficient of the graph makes it possible to estimate the local connectivity of points in the constructed graph, forming a generalized idea of the network structure from the position of the presence of clusters in it. The Gini index of the graph allows us to assess the correspondence of the global structure of the graph to real networks. The selection of features is based on the analysis of the graph clicks, which provides maximum mutual information MI with a minimum of features, which maximally reduces distortions in describing the structure of regional foreign economic relations. The application of the described approach made it possible to eliminate the multicollinearity of features, to select indicators, to expand the possibilities of using the existing data set by including new indicators that introduce new useful information about the subject area into the model. The method of feature selection considered in the paper can be rationally used to construct interpreted predictive models of foreign economic activity indicators and as one of the ways to reduce the dimension of the model feature space. The results obtained allow us to conclude about the advantages of the considered approach to the implementation of the selection of features in the construction of predictive models of indicators of foreign economic activity of regions.
THE SYSTEM OF SUPPORT FOR THE DIDACTIC DESIGN OF ACADEMIC DISCIPLINES OF THE HUMANITIES AND SOCIO-ECONOMIC CYCLE
Authors: Kotsyuba I. Y , Sokolov S. A , Shikov A. N , Valdaitceva M. V
Published: February 2023

The article presents a software package that allows to support the design of teaching materials by a teacher of disciplines of the humanities and socio-economic cycle. The problems of the organization of didactic design by a university teacher with the need to compile directly by an expert teacher supporting lecture notes and other methodological materials, including the need to select a number of literary sources taking into account their specifics for different educational tasks and types of educational activities, are presented. The problems of adaptation and development of methodological materials to changes in the ontology of the subject area are discussed, for example, in connection with changing trends in the scientific environment, when established positions are transformed, which creates a problem for the teacher to additionally engage in didactic design and adjust teaching materials. Thus, there is an urgency of automatic analysis of text materials, which will significantly reduce the complexity of this process when developing, making changes and adapting courses of humanitarian and socio-economic orientation. The step-by-step process of transition from the competence-oriented requirements of the subject area to the functional requirements of the information system is analyzed, on the basis of which a decision-making model was formulated that closely imitates the process of didactic design, subject to automation, and allows using software tools to control its logic. The results of the infological and physical design of the system are presented, including a database model and a deployment diagram using an object-oriented modeling language. Methods and tools of software implementation of the application are discussed with justification of the relevance of their choice for the software solution of the task. The results of the system's operation confirm its functional suitability, and the results of testing allow us to judge a significant reduction in the complexity of the didactic design process by the teacher. The developed tool can be widely used both in the development of educational and methodological materials of the main literature, and for the methodological equipment of the organization of independent work of students.
L’esperienza di Mons. Boļeslavs Sloskāns nella Russia sovietica attraverso le sue memorie di prigionia (1927–1933)
Authors: Pellegrino Manuela
Published: February 2023

This article presents the memories of bishop Bolesław Sloskans from the Soviet labor camps (1927–1933). Marxist ideology regarded religion as the enemy of progress. Therefore, after the Bolsheviks took power, a period of systemic struggle with all its manifestations began. A huge sacrifice, apart from the Orthodox Church, was made by the Roman Catholic Church. Almost all Catholic clergy working in the USSR faced persecution at that time. Among them was also Bishop Bolesław Sloskans, from 1926 apostolic administrator in Belarus with the title of apostolic inspector of the Mogilev and Minsk dioceses. He was arrested for the first time in 1927. He was imprisoned for the second time in 1930. He spent six years in exile. He was released in 1933 through an exchange of prisoners from Latvia.

Cerkiew greckokatolicka na Pomorzu Zachodnim ćwierć wieku po akcji „Wisła” w świetle sprawozdań Wydziałów do Spraw Wyznań
Authors: Bobryk Witold
Published: February 2023

The deportation of the Ukrainian population to former German territoties was to facilitate the process of its assimilation. The religious separateness of the Ukrainian community, among which the Greek Catholics predominated, hindered the implementation of these plans. The religious policy defined by the communist party aimed at the complete liquidation of the Greek Catholic Church by supporting the Polish Autocephalous Orthodox Church. De-Stalinization, however, liberalized the position towards Greek Catholics. Although state authorities did not legalize this religion, they allowed to organize informal pastoral centers. A quarter of a century after Operation Vistula in Western Pomerania, there were fifteen of them. The existence of Greek Catholic pastoral centers not only crossed out the assumptions of the state’s religious policy, but first of all prevented the assimilation of the Ukrainian population.
Teachers’ and students’ views about the applicability of the project-based learning approach in science courses in Turkey
Authors: Kilic Ismail , Ozel Mehtap
Published: February 2023

The aim with this study was to examine how, from the teachers’ and students’ perspectives, the project-based learning approach was applied in science and technology lessons. The research was conducted through a case study with qualitative research methods. The data of the study were obtained from semi-structured interviews with 38 students and 11 science and technology teachers. This data were analysed by descriptive analysis which is a qualitative data analysis method. The results of this study show that the teachers described the project-based learning approach as an inapplicable approach in schools. Teachers advised a reduction of curriculum content and a reduction in class sizes. We understood that the other phases of the project processes that started with the selection of project topics at school were done with the help of the students’ families at home. It also became clear that during the evaluation process, the teachers took the students’ own efforts into consideration. We determined that most of the students who participated in the projects in the science and technology course were free to choose their project subjects. It also became clear that students preferred to do projects in the science and technology course. At the end of the research report, suggestions based on the results of the research are made.
Parental involvement in children’s primary education: A case study from a rural district in Malawi
Authors: Erlendsdóttir Guðlaug , Macdonald M. Allyson , Jónsdóttir Svanborg R. , Mtika Peter
Published: February 2023

In the study reported on here, we analysed parents’ involvement in their children’s primary education in 4 primary schools in rural Malawi, focusing on the home and the school. Through interviews and focus-group discussions, information was obtained from 19 parents, 24 teachers (6 from each school), and 4 head teachers. Bronfenbrenner’s ecological systems theory was used to design the study and to interpret the data, focusing mainly on the micro- and mesosystem elements. The home and school settings represent the autonomous microsystem, whereas parental involvement is part of the mesosystem. The microsystem appeared to be active both with learner-parent and learner-teacher actions; however, mesosystemic interactions were limited. We found that parents and teachers needed to develop stronger mutual relationships and interactions to support learners better. Schools also need to communicate positive aspects of children’s learning to the parents. Enhancing positive reinforcement could enhance parental involvement.
