Published: September 2022

BackgroundThe COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in delayed diagnosis and treatment for cancer patients and increases in elective surgery waiting lists. The impact on other ‘long-term’ conditions (LTCs) is unclear. We examined the effects of the pandemic on the recorded incidence of 20 LTCs to inform decisions on treatment pathways and resource allocation.
ApproachWe included Welsh residents diagnosed with any of 20 LTCs for the first time between 2000-2021.
Data were accessed and analysed within the Secure Anonymised Information Linkage (SAIL) Databank.
The primary aim was to assess the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on trends in recorded incidence. Secondarily we examined incidence by socio-demographic and clinical subgroups: age, sex, deprivation quintile, ethnicity, frailty score and learning disability.
Incidence were presented as monthly rates for each LTC. We performed interrupted time series analyses to estimate; the immediate and long-term change in rates following the pandemic; and the size of the undiagnosed population.
ResultsWe included 2,206,070 individuals diagnosed with at least one LTC.
An immediate reduction in recording of new diagnoses was observed in April 2020 across all 20 LTCs, followed by a gradual recovery towards pre-pandemic levels over the next 18 months, though at different rates across conditions. The largest difference between observed and expected (as predicted using pre-pandemic trends) incidence between January 2020 and June 2021 were in the diagnoses of COPD (-43%, 95% CI (-50%, -34%)), Asthma, Hypertension and Depression and the smallest difference was in Type 1 diabetes, dementia, stroke and TIA (-8%, 95% CI (-19% ,5%)).
Differences in the proportions of incidence by socio-demographic and clinical subgroups in the years preceding and following the pandemic have also been analysed (results to be finalised).
ConclusionThere was an abrupt reduction in the observed incidence of all 20 LTCs after March 2020 followed by a gradual recovery over consequent months towards pre-pandemic levels. Of 20 LTCs, 15 strongly indicate a reservoir of yet undiagnosed patients. The results from this study will have implications in resource allocation.
Algerian EFL Students’ Perception of the Impact of Teachers’ Gender: The Case of Tlemcen University
Authors: BELHADJ-TAHAR Kamila , DENDANE Zoubir
Published: September 2022

In the last three decades, the study of gender in relation to EFL research has gained greater importance. The gender-based difference has been widely studied showing the role played by the teacher as perceived by university students. A teacher’s gender is undeniably a significant factor in influencing the learning process and thus bears some impact on learners’ achievement. This study explores students’ perception of the impact of teachers’ gender in the EFL classroom at Tlemcen University in Algeria. This research bears some significance as to the achievements reached by the learners based on how they may be affected by their teachers’ gender, and thus it attempts to question their preferences and their relationship with their teachers. The main question considers the impact of teachers’ gender on Algerian EFL learners’. An open-ended questionnaire was administered to forty first-year students. The findings show that students do not mind studying in mixed-gender classes and being taught by both genders. They seem to have a more positive attitude towards the role of men in the teaching profession than their female colleagues, though female teachers outperform males in interpersonal relationships

Authors: UZUN Büşra , YAYLI Mustafa Özgür
Published: September 2022

In this work, a finite element formulation for a size dependent frame system is presented. Size dependency is discussed via the modified couple stress theory. The nodal displacement and rotation analyses of a frame system with total of three elements, including two columns and one beam element connecting these two columns, are considered. The classical stiffness and size dependent stiffness matrices of frame system are derived. Then, solution procedure for this problem is explained. Lastly, a numerical application is realized and effect of material length scale parameter on nodal displacements and rotations is discussed. To present the numerical application, it is assumed that the elements of the nanoframe are composed of silicon carbide nanotubes.
Numerical Elastic Analysis of Functionally Graded (FG) Polar Orthotropic and Exponentially Varying-Thickness Rotating Disks via Combined Complementary Functions and the Transfer Matrix Methods
Authors: YILDIRIM Vebil
Published: September 2022

In the present paper, the transfer matrix method (TMM) is to be employed for the first time in the open literature for the elastic analysis of variable-thickness disks made of functionally graded (FG) two orthotropic materials. Those materials are assumed to be continuously radially functionally graded (FG) based on the Voigt rule of mixture with two models. An exponential disk profile with two parameters is considered. Effects of the different boundary conditions (free-free, fixed-free, and fixed-fixed) and inhomogeneity indexes on the elastic response of the disk rotating at a constant angular speed are also examined. Additionally, direct numerical solutions of the problem with the complementary functions method (CFM) are presented in tabular forms together with the transfer matrix method solutions in which CFM was used as an assistant tool. It was observed that both location and amplitude of the maximum equivalent stress are affected by the grading models chosen. Such differences become more obvious for small values of the inhomogeneity indexes. The maximum relative error may reach 18% for the two material grading models in fixed-free disks. Consequently, Model-I may be recommended for just the inhomogeneity indexes equal to or greater than 0.5.

Contemporary Terminological Problems in a Cross-linguistic Perspective
Authors: Riabtseva N. K.
Published: September 2022

The paper focuses on terminological problems in contemporary cross-linguistic communication that are generated primarily by two main tendencies in global scientific communication — the digitalization in information processing and the English language globalization. Both are closely connected with a new approach in linguistics — discourse clustering and its role in promoting foreign language and translation instruction. The paper provides a corpus-based account of Russian–English translation problems concerning clear-cut distinctions between Russian versus English academic style’s language-specific patterns in terminology discursive clustering, as well as their didactic and methodological importance for foreign language acquisition, Russian-English and English-Russian translation. The main idea is that the most important contemporary terminological problem in a cross-linguistic perspective is the lack of active authentic and language-specific terminology patterns in Russian–English scientific translations.
“Who is Bright is Holy”: Situation of Light Designation in Akathists to Russian Saints
Authors: Semenova N. V. , Polezhaeva Zh. Yu.
Published: September 2022

The results of a study of the situation of light designation in akathists to Russian saints is presented in the article. The relevance of studying the phenomenon of light on this material is due, firstly, to the most important text-forming role of light designs in this hymnographic genre, and secondly, to the need for an in-depth study of the role of the verb in the organization of the Slavic sentence. The situation of light designation became the direct object of analysis, and the participants in this situation became the subject. The focus of research attention is on the relevant valence (semantic and syntactic) characteristics of the verb as the structural center of the sentence. The main research methods were: functional-semantic, contextual analysis of lexical units, statistical. As a result of the study, a linguistic corpus of light designations (3,157 units) was identified, their part-of-speech affiliation was characterized, a chronological distribution was demonstrated, and the dominant root-forming elements (svet-, siya-, zar-, blist-, svesh-) were established. Particular attention is paid to the grammatical mechanisms that provide light designation, as well as to its direct participants. The emphasis is on the main participant — the light. The description of the register of possible semantic roles of participants in the situation of light designation (Subject, Object and their subtypes) is focused on the division traditional in the Orthodox metaphysics of light: “uncreated light”, “smart light” and “sensual light”.
Russian Language in Everyday Discourse of Mongols (Data from an Expert Survey)
Authors: Tsybenova Ch. S. , Zhalsanova V. G.
Published: September 2022

The results of a study conducted in 2021 and devoted to the analysis of the current position of the Russian language in Mongolian society is presented in the article. The relevance of the study is due to the need to analyze the changes taking place in the minds of the Mongols regarding the Russian language, and to search for further prospects for its functioning in Mongolia. The impossibility of conducting a mass questionnaire survey due to the pandemic of a new coronavirus infection led to the choice of an expert survey as the main research method. The factors leading to the weakening of the Russian language positions, which include, first of all, the change in Mongolia’s foreign policy priorities, the search for new partners, the decrease in Russia’s influence, and the processes of globalization are considered in the article. It was revealed that, despite the narrowing of the spheres of functioning of the Russian in Mongolia, its socio-cultural potential in the Mongolian society has not been exhausted. The factors restraining the growth of negative trends are highlighted, namely the presence of the Russian in the educational sphere, the presence of specialists with Soviet and Russian education, a common historical memory based on friendship and trust. Analysis of the results of the study shows that the further development of cooperation between Russia and Mongolia in all spheres of public life, the strengthening of political union, economic cooperation and cultural interaction can allow the Russian language to become one of the leading foreign languages in modern Mongolian society.
Combination ‘New Sincerity’ in Lexicographic Aspect
Authors: Leontyeva T. V. , Shchetinina A. V.
Published: September 2022

The question of the lexicographic description of idiomatic expressions with a new component in the composition, which have become widespread both in the texts of the official media and on other Internet resources, is considered. The relevance of the study is determined by the lexicographic practice of fixing neologisms in explanatory dictionaries of various types. It is noted that expressions built according to the “new + noun” model: new sincerity, new reality, new sociality, new normality, new romance, etc., include the second component, which names the phenomenon of socio-cultural or moral spheres, which has long been known by native speakers. Using the example of the idiom new sincerity and the lexeme sincerity, it is shown that the semantic scope of the meanings of these language units differs significantly. The authors come to the conclusion that the lexeme sincerity names a property inherent in a person, is evaluated by native speakers as an ethical category, and is often used in a number of nominations of other traditional values, such as courage, honesty, nobility, etc. It is proved that the expression new sincerity, denoting, same as sincerity, the openness of a person, first of all indicates not the property of the communicant, but his goal — to attract the attention of other people in the public space with the frankness of self-expression.
Abbreviated Chinese Words of Coronavirus Era with a Structural-Semantic Component ‘in a Cloud Format’
Authors: Li Xiaoge
Published: September 2022

The article is devoted to the description of the analysis of compound words results built according to the model “云xx”. The material was the vocabulary that appeared or became widely used since the beginning of the coronavirus pandemic. Particular attention is paid to the study of word-formation and semantic patterns of the emergence of new words in modern Chinese, built according to the model “云xx”. The need to study the mechanism of the emergence of such words in order to determine their linguistic status and establish the specifics of their functioning in speech determines the relevance of this study. 15 abbreviated words built according to the “云xx” model were analyzed, naming current events in the life of Chinese society in the era of coronavirus. It was found that the morpheme 云 ‘in a cloud format’ is an affix that has regular reproducibility and forms a productive construction “云xx”, which creates a word-building mechanism for generating a whole group of new compound abbreviated words. It has been proved that this word-formation model has a high productivity, which makes it possible to regularly produce words expressing new concepts and phenomena associated with the development of network technologies.
‘Imagination of North’ in Author’s Landscape of V. L. Seroshevsky
Authors: Danilova N. K.
Published: September 2022

The author of the article refers to the comprehension of a personal biographical narrative, which reflects a person’s ideas about the geographical environment, that is, the phenomenon of “imagination of space”. The relevance of the study is explained by the fact that modern humanities develop and apply new methodological principles and approaches to identify mechanisms for adapting a person in fundamentally different, “foreign” conditions. The material of the study was the ego-documents, memoirs and fiction of V. L. Seroshevsky, a Polish political exile who spent 12 long years in Yakutia. The aim of the study is to identify the content basis of Vaclav Seroshevsky’s geopoetics, which consists in modeling and transforming the image of the North through the prism of “living and experiencing” space. The methodological principles of modern cross-cultural research, where human life is a narrative structure are applied in the article. As a result of historical-cognitive and linguo-culturological analysis, Seroshevsky’s autobiographical chronotope, consisting of three periods, broadcasting the formation, development and transformation of the geocultural image of the North, was analyzed for the first time. Three actual images-topoi (sea, forest, steppe valley) associated with the emotive-sensual factor that influenced the author’s landscape of Vaclav Seroshevsky were identified.
Voice-Over Text in Documentary Film Discourse
Authors: Urtmintseva M. G. , Skachkova V. N.
Published: September 2022

The article is devoted to the characteristics of the voice-over text functions as a way to embody the film discourse of a documentary film that recreates the image of M. Gorky during the last ten years of his life. The material of the study was the correspondence of M. Gorky in 1924–1927 with writers, where his attitude to the transformations in the Soviet Union and work on the story “The Life of Klim Samgin” were discussed. In order to restore the amount of material underlying the script, work was carried out to decipher the sounding voice-over text, the addressees of the letters, the dating of the correspondence were established, and the fragments included in the voice-over text were compared with the full text of the letters. As a result of the study, it was proved that the voice-over text, considered in the history of documentary cinema as an auxiliary element of the video sequence, in the film by S. Aranovich and B. Dobrodeev acts as the main semantic element of the narrative, built on the principle of editing fragments of the epistolary, arranging them according to the problem-thematic principle with a violation of the chronology of correspondence. The most important feature of the documentary discourse of the film is the combination within one episode of fragments of quotations from M. Gorky’s letters to different addressees, which is dictated by the author’s concept of the image of the writer as a tragic personality who turned out to be a hostage of the myth created about him as a proletarian writer, a defender of the Bolshevik ideology.

Authors: Kostetskaya E. V. , Suslova L. N.
Published: September 2022

The article is devoted to the study of the schooling formation on the territory of the Siberian province in the first quarter of the 18th century. The process of origin and development of spiritual and secular education in Siberia is characterized. The study was carried out on the basis of an analysis of the decrees of Peter I published in the Complete Collection of Laws of the Russian Empire, which regulate the organization of educational institutions in Siberia. A number of clerical sources of the Russian State Archive of Ancient Acts, in particular, the cases of the Siberian Order, are analyzed. Also, to study the topic, materials from the newspaper “Tobolsk Gubernskie Vedomosti” were involved. The authors of the article show that Peter’s modernization processes in the field of education were reflected in the life of the Siberian province in the first quarter of the 18th century. It is concluded that the main changes that affected the field of education are associated with the implementation of the reforms of Peter I. The role of the first theological schools in the education system of the Siberian province, the significance of the decrees of Peter I and the activities of the Orthodox Church in their formation are considered. At the same time, it is proved that the political events and cultural innovations of the Petrine era contributed to the formation of secular education and the spread of enlightenment among Siberians.
State of Agriculture in Middle Urals in “Stagnant” Decade (1971—1980): Development or Stagnation?
Authors: Mamyachenkov V. N. , Anisimov A. L. , Molokova E. L.
Published: September 2022

The relevance of the study is due to the enduring theoretical and practical interest shown by Russian society in the historical period studied in the article. The novelty of the study is seen in the fact that the materials from the funds of three regional archives are used in the article. It is emphasized that the decade under study was the peak of the historical period known as “stagnant”, becoming the last relatively prosperous decade in the history of the USSR. It is argued that the 1970s occupy a special place in the history of the former USSR. The authors state that the policy of “détente” provided the country with a certain foreign policy stability. Attention is focused on the fact that the development of stagnation phenomena in the economy of the country and the region in the 1970s are clearly visible when analyzing the state of affairs in the agricultural sector of the economy. It is proved that during the decade under study, as a whole, there was no significant improvement in providing the population of the region with agricultural products. It is concluded that in the region’s agriculture in the 1970s, opposite processes took place: the growth of investment, on the one hand, and the growth of stagnation, on the other.
“Building of Friendship” in Relations of Soviet Union and East Germany (1949—1989)
Authors: Popov A. D.
Published: September 2022

The attempt to characterize the process of “building of friendship” within the socialist bloc on the example of relations between the USSR and the GDR is made in the article. The leadership of these countries sought to establish the most friendly relations, the basis for which was a memorial consensus based on the unconditional acceptance by the official German side of the Soviet view of the events of World War II. However, at the level of interpersonal contacts, the “negative tail” of the communicative memory of the events of 1941—1945 persisted (moving into the “zone of silence”), even despite the widespread introduction of institutions, practices and rituals of friendship into relations between citizens of the two countries, a vivid example of which was regularly mass festivals of friendship between the youth of the USSR and the GDR, held in the 1970s and 1980s. In general, the author of the article concludes that the project of constructing the Soviet-German friendship was not effective enough not only because of the hidden memorial contradictions, but also because of the lack of a promising picture of a common future. By the 1970s and 1980s, citizens of the two countries, especially young people, had not received a clear, realistic idea of the future joint development of their countries within the framework of the common project of socialist integration, which contributed to the growth of skepticism in this direction and, as a result, became one of the reasons for the collapse of the socialist bloc in the late 1980s.
Evaluative Potential of Lexemes — Representatives of Concept TRUE in Russian
Authors: Lebedeva O. A. , Smirnova E. E.
Published: September 2022

The study of the evaluative potential of the concept TRUTH in the Russian language picture of the world has been carried out. The results of the analysis of the use of the word true in the role of a qualitative adjective with evaluative semantics and the word truly in the role of a qualitative adverb with the semantics of the degree of manifestation of a property, feature or action / state are presented based on the materials of the Russian National Corpus and the authors’ own Internet monitoring in the Russian-speaking segment of the Internet. It is shown that in the total semantic content of the concept TRUTH, two semantic layers of its conceptual content in the modern Russian are realized: correspondence to reality; compliance with the norm in the world of people, the highest ideal. The following varieties of uses of the qualitative adjective true and the qualitative adverb truly as a secondary assessment based on the general meaning of “corresponding to the ideal in the world of norms and values of the speaker” were found: the meaning is “ideal, exemplary, perfect”; the meaning is “full, reached / brought to the maximum degree of manifestation of the entity named by the defined word” and the meaning of a strong degree of manifestation of something. It is concluded that the words true and truly embody the subjective moral and value ideas of native speakers about how it should be in the world of human relations, and not about “how it really is”.
Intervariant Linguistic Phenomena in Semantic “Baking” in National Variants of Spanish
Authors: Mikheeva N. F. , Popova E. A. , Ignashina Z. N.
Published: September 2022

The article deals with the issue of semantic discrepancies between the lexical units of the Spanish language national variants on the example of the semantic field “Bread and baking” lexemes. The relevance of the study is due to its focus on the needs of the current stage of development of comparative semantics, variantology and intervariant dialectology, which provide for the gradual coverage of all the supporting semantic fields of the language in the communicative-pragmatic aspect. The novelty of the study is seen in the fact that through a comparative intervariant analysis of language units with the primary meaning of baking, the cultural specificity of the corresponding concepts in different Spanish-speaking countries and regions within the framework of a multinational language is revealed. Particular attention is paid to the semantic processes and linguistic phenomena underlying the intervariant discrepancies, their classification is proposed in relation to this area. The question is raised about the importance of extralinguistic factors in the formation of the alimentary thesaurus of a particular country and culture or sets of cultures in a certain territory. As a result of the study, it was proved that the vocabulary of the field “Baking” is a source of difficulties in intercultural communication, directly related to linguistic phenomena in the field of variantology and intervariant dialectology of the Spanish language.

The research was carried out in 2022. The volumetric method and Burkard or Lanzoni samplers were used. The pollen season was determined with the 95% method. The onset of the season was recorded earlier in the west of Poland than in the east of the country, i.e. between January 30th and February 18th. The season ended between March 23rd and April 3rd. The maximum alder pollen concentrations were determined in between February 14th and March 16th. The highest concentrations of alder pollen were detected in Kielce and Piotrkow Trybunalski, while the lowest values were recorded in Bialystok and Szczecin.
Szczepienie przeciw COVID-19 przy podejrzeniu anafilaksji po pierwszej dawce szczepionki
Authors: Starczewska-Dymek Liwia , Moos Łukasz , Brzoza Zenon
Published: September 2022

Wraz z rosnącą liczbą wykonanych szczepień przeciwko COVID-19 (p/COVID-19) wzrasta także liczba zgłaszanych reakcji o różnym obrazie klinicznym po podaniu szczepionki. Mimo że reakcje te występują stosunkowo rzadko i nie zawsze mają charakter alergiczny, to budzą lęk. Szczególnie pacjenci, którzy doznali działań niepożądanych szczepienia, często nie są kwalifikowani do podania kolejnych dawek tym samym preparatem. Rozpoznanie ciężkiej reakcji anafilaktycznej po podaniu szczepionki mRNA i/lub uczulenie na jej składniki są przeciwwskazaniami do szczepienia preparatem mRNA p/COVID-19.
Prezentowany przypadek pacjentki przedstawia problem prawidłowej kwalifikacji reakcji, które miały miejsce podczas szczepienia preparatem mRNA Comirnaty (Pfizer/BioNTech), i późniejszej diagnostyki alergologicznej.

Integrated Gamification Model in a Constructivist Learning Environment for the Promotion of Creative Skills
Authors: Parra Xochitl Clemente , García Fausto Abraham Jacques
Published: September 2022

The Knowledge Society has highlighted the importance of creativity as a goal competence, which should be fostered in higher education institutions; therefore, it is necessary to integrate innovative educational experiences oriented to the development of creativity complementing the professional training of students. Recent research from psychology and pedagogy reports advances associated with the nature, evaluation, composition, and conditions for teaching creativity that have resulted in successful applications in only one facet of the creative process. In this research, we propose an integrated model for making educational interventions through online courses. This model combines contributions to the teaching of creativity from pedagogy in relation to the pedagogical model, instructional design, and conditions of the teaching-learning process required for the promotion of creativity. It also includes the contributions of psychology in relation to the cognitive processes and skills associated with creativity, the techniques and activities for the development of creative skills, as well as the principles associated with intrinsic motivation based on the theory of self-determination through its application in the learning technique called gamification. The advantage of this integrated model is that it incorporates and fosters multiple components of creativity simultaneously, with the objective of generating creative results of greater breadth and quality.
Toy Industry As A Mainstream Business Idea In Animation Industry
Authors: Rochman Mochamad Faizal
Published: September 2022

This article examines the aspects that influenced the emergence of the animation industry format aimed specifically at selling toys. In addition, this article also aims to find out whether the purpose of this animation business is still relevant to be used today by analyzing animated characters and their toy figures related to the exploration of culture, ideology, and supporting factors. In its first development, animation was used to deliver messages in the advertising industry. Then animation became a promising industry with the emergence of Snow White which was made for big-screen consumption. The emergence and popularity of television in the '60s provided new opportunities for the animation industry, stimulating the development of animated television series. Animated television series have a significant role in helping the marketing of derivative products in the animation industry. The 80s became a golden year for the animation industry and its derivatives, which was marked by the emergence of many animated films with the main business objective of selling toys. The declining popularity of television and the increasing use of the internet as a medium of entertainment will undoubtedly impact the development of the animation and toy industry. The power of character toy figures as a sole entertainment has also begun to come under pressure from the video game industry.

Published: September 2022

Background:

Infections of central nervous system after spinal anesthesia nowadays are a rarity; however, their presence might be of concern.

Case Description:

We report the case of lateral ventricular empyema treated unsuccessfully with parenteral antibiotic therapy, with the clinical signs of a persisting meningitis. After several lumbar taps suggesting an infection,Pseudomonas aeruginosawas isolated and a brain magnetic resonance imaging find out the collection in the left horn of the lateral ventricle. An intrathecal/intraventricular antibiotic therapy with colistin proved highly effective combined with an extra ventricular drainage to deal with the hydrocephaly.

Conclusion:

Clinicians should take into account even uncommon infectious agents while facing the picture of a meningitis otherwise nonresponsive to empiric or standard therapy.
Application of Bioinformatics resources for mining of simple sequence repeats (SSRs) marker in plant genomes: An Overview
Authors: Satpathy Raghunath
Published: September 2022

In the case of plants, the prediction of simple sequence repeats (SSRs) is important for the purpose of gene mapping, biodiversity study and detection of genes with desired characters. In addition to this, due to their polymorphic nature and distribution throughout the genome, it is considered as an ideal marker in plants. However, the traditional methods for the detection of SSR-based polymorphism cause difficultly. As an alternative method, the bioinformatics approaches have been used extensively in the study of these molecular markers, in a economic way. The next generation sequencing (NGS) techniques generate a huge amount of genomic data which is stored in the public databases in the form of whole genome and EST. This provides the opportunity to implement the bioinformatics tools to predict and annotate the SSR associated with desired gene of the plants. Several computational programs along with the pipelines have been developed to detect the SSR sequences automatically by using the genomic information from the database. In this review, the application and availability of specific bioinformatics resources and the methods of application involved for SSR discovery have been presented by taking suitable examples from the literature.

Opportunity to change the future or “institutional trap”
Authors: Rozhkov E. V.
Published: September 2022

The author of the article considers research on the current implementation of digital processes in Russia, as well as the consequences of these processes, taking into account the theory of “institutional traps”, including falling into the “digital trap”. The purpose of the article is to identify the weak side of digitalisation of the economy. Scientific works devoted to the problems of identifying organizational and theoretical models of digitalisation form the methodological basis of the study. In the results of the study, the author concludes that the “digital trap” is a feature of “digits” and “digital technologies” that leads to universal control over a person, society and the state. Pervasive control 24/7 using artificial intelligence can lead to helplessness of people who will be doomed to obey the instructions “from above”. The author’s economic assessment of the possibility of changing our being with the help of digital technologies leads to an “institutional trap” and, as a result, to a “digital trap”. Judging by the distribution of money in the budget of the Russian Federation, every year more and more funds are allocated for the promotion of digital projects. Such a rapid integration of digital technologies may indicate, on the one hand, the desire to develop the economy and society, and on the other hand, the need to control each person, while speaking about the security of the state and its values.

Forecasting investments in fixed assets
Authors: Terekhov A. M.
Published: September 2022

The article details the issues of forecasting investments in fixed assets. The theoretical aspects (foreign experience) of using various forms of predictive models based on the analysis of foreign scientific literature are considered. Two different forecasting methods have been practically implemented using the example of building multiplicative and ARIMA models. Quarterly forecasts of the cost of investments in fixed assets for 2022–2023 in the Russian Federation are formulated. A comparison of the simulation results showed that the calculated values for both models describe the dynamics of the indicator well, the forecast values differ, and therefore an average (combined) forecast is built based on the prediction results for both implemented methods. The results of the study can be used in the practical activities of state and municipal bodies, enterprise management for quarterly forecasting of investments in fixed assets.
