Climate change adaptation needs a science of culture
Authors: Pisor Anne , Lansing John Stephen , Magargal Kate
Published: February 2023

According to the IPCC, we must immediately prioritize climate change adaptation—change in response to or anticipation of risks from climate change. Some researchers and policymakers urge “transformative change”, a complete break from past practices, yet report having little data on whether new practices reduce the risks communities face, even over the short term. However, researchers have some leads: human communities have long generated solutions to changing climate, and scientists who study culture have examples of effective and persistent solutions. This special issue discusses cultural adaptation to climate change, and in this paper, we review how processes of biological adaptation, including innovation, modification, selective retention, and transmission, shape the landscapes decision-makers care about—from which solutions emerge in communities, to the spread of effective adaptations, to regional or global collective action. We introduce a comprehensive portal of data and models on cultural adaptation to climate change, and we outline ways forward, including how to do collaborative research with communities.

Published: February 2023

Birokrasi telah menjadi aktor penting dalam sejarah umat manusia. Apabila orang ditanya tentang organisasi apakah yang paling mereka butuhkan dalam kehidupan modern ini, maka hampir pasti jawabannya adalah birokrasi. Sejak sebelum lahir sampai dengan meninggalnya manusia, akan senantiasa berurusan dengan institusi pemerintah yang dikenal dengan nama birokrasi. Dalam perkembangannya, birokrasi merupakan struktur organisasi di sektor pemerintahan yang memiliki ruang lingkup tugas sangat luas serta memerlukan organisasi besar dengan sumber daya manusia yang banyak. Dalam realitasnya, birokrasi merupakan pelaksana penyelenggaraan pemerintahan, pembangunan dan pelayanan umum.
FILSAFAT HUKUM SEBAGAI ILMU PENGETAHUAN DASAR HUKUM
Authors: LAIA ARIUSNI
Published: February 2023

Kekecewaan dan ketidakpuasan atas produk-produk hukum yang berlaku saat ini seringkali muncul dalam pemberitaan di media cetak maupun elektronik, bahkan sampai pada pembicaraan di kalangan masyarakat umum. Produk-produk hukum berupa peraturan perundangan, peraturan kebijakan, keputusan atau ketetapan, sampai surat edaran, dianggap tidak dapat menyelesaikan masalah bahkan seringkali menimbulkan masalah baru. Kekecewaan dan ketidakpuasan ini terutama ditujukan kepada para pembuat hukum dan penegak hukum yang mempunyai kewajiban untuk mendeskripsikan dan menjalankan hukum dalam kehidupan sehari-hari. Hukum dalam kehidupan masyarakat dapat dirasakan secara langsung melalui produk-produk hukum maupun sikap indak para aktor hukum, sehingga hukum tidak hanya berarti peraturan perundangan, akan tetapi juga institusi/lembaga dan norma-norma yang berkembang dalam pergaulan hidup. Perilaku para aktor hukum memang merupakan suatu hal yang fenomenal, karena tingkah laku para aktor tersebut merupakan konsekuensi-konsekuensi dari sejumlah pandangan yang bekerja di kepala manusia. Muncul pertanyaan yang mengarah pada bagaimana sebenarnya dunia ilmu hukum itu, sehingga memunculkan aktor-aktor hukum yang demikian? Pertanyaan ini bersifat menggugat hukum sebagai suatu ilmu, apakah hukum dapat dipelajari secara objektif sebagai suatu subjek? Apakah hukum itu bukan hanya merupakan produk politik dari para pemegang kekuasaan, sehingga hukum tidaklah dapat dipelajari dan tidak membutuhkan filosofi tertentu yang mendasarinya? Perdebatan hukum sebagai suatu ilmu atau bukan memang telah berakhir, akan tetapi ilmu hukum sebagai bagian dari ilmu praktikal yang bersifat normologikal, seolah-olah tidak lagi dapat menjadi pedoman, arahan, dan alat kontrol, bagi hukum praktikal secara rasional. Sebagai Ilmu Praktikal. hukum juga dimaksudkan untuk mempelajari cara menemukan dan menawarkan alternatif penyelesaian masalah konkrit. Ketidakmampuan Ilmu Hukum untuk melaksanakan fungsinya tersebut dapat menjadi suatu bahan kajian dari filsafat sebagai ilmu laitis untuk mencari kebenaran yang sesungguhnya dariIlmu Hukum, sehingga Hukum dapat memenuhi fungsinya sebagai suatu ilmu.
Relativity Theory, Quantum Theory and the Goedel Theorem
Authors: Strotmann Barbara
Published: February 2023

Two simple equations are given and we show their validity and consistency. Using model theory we apply central concepts of general relativity theory and the first law of the thermodynamics about energy conservation to that system. We then use Goedel Theorem to obtain new mathematical truth by transcending the original system and establish a new paradigm.
What is the airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow? Modeling numerical judgments of realisitc stimuli
Authors: Izydorczyk David , Bröder Arndt
Published: February 2023

Research on processes of multiple-cue judgments usually uses artificial stimuli with predefined cue structures, such as artificial bugs with four binary features like back color, belly color, gland size, and spot shape. One reason is that the cognitive models used in this area need known cues and cue values. This limitation makes it difficult to apply the models to research questions with complex naturalistic stimuli with unknown cue strucuture. In two studies, building on early categorizaton research, we demonstrate how cues and cue values of complex naturalistic stimuli can be extracted from pairwise similarity ratings with a multidimensional scaling analysis and then be used in a state-of-the art hierarchical Bayesian model of numerical judgments. In the first study, we show that predefined cue structures of artificial stimuli are well recovered by a MDS analysis of similarity judgments and that using these MDS-based attributes as cues in a cognitive model of judgment data from an existing experiment leads to the same inferences as when the original cue values were used. In the second study, we use the same procedure to replicate previous findings from multiple-cue judgment literature using complex naturalistic stimuli.
Access to inner language enhances memory for events
Authors: Banks Briony , Connell Louise
Published: February 2023

Events are temporally-bounded experiences involving people, objects and actions that can be segmented into sequences of smaller meaningful events (e.g., the steps involved in constructing a piece of furniture), but the role of inner language in remembering such events has been unclear. We investigated whether inner language enhances memory for events in a naturalistic, non-verbal task where participants constructed simple models from memory. Across three experiments, we used linguistic suppression in a dual-task paradigm to test whether inner language improved overall memory performance and completion time, additionally exploring the number of events that could be recalled. We found that access to inner language at encoding consistently affected memory performance: when inner language was disrupted at encoding, participants were poorer at recalling the models and remembered fewer events. This effect was present whether or not the number of events to be recalled exceed event memory capacity (estimated to be approximately 7-8 events). Critically, the effect of linguistic suppression on memory performance was greater than a control secondary task that did not affect access to language; that is, poorer performance was not solely due to dual-task effects. The results support the proposal that inner language enhances event memory via a mechanism of linguistic bootstrapping, which in turn extends theories of event memory and adds to a growing body of evidence that inner language is a highly valuable cognitive tool.
Text embedding models yield high-resolution insights into conceptual knowledge from short multiple-choice quizzes
Authors: Fitzpatrick Paxton C. , Heusser Andrew C. , Manning Jeremy R.
Published: February 2023

We develop a mathematical framework, based on natural language processing models, for tracking and characterizing the acquisition of conceptual knowledge. Our approach embeds each concept in a high-dimensional representation space, where nearby coordinates reflect similar or related concepts. We test our approach using behavioral data from participants who answered small sets of multiple-choice quiz questions, interleaved between watching two course videos from the Khan Academy platform. We apply our framework to the videos' transcripts and the text of the quiz questions to quantify the content of each moment of video and each quiz question. We use these embeddings, along with participants' quiz responses, to track how the learners' knowledge changed after watching each video. Our findings show how a small set of quiz questions may be used to obtain rich and meaningful high-resolution insights into what each learner knows, and how their knowledge changes over time as they learn.
If you (don’t) snooze, do you use? Prospective links between adolescent sleep patterns and substance use and depression
Authors: Sasser Jeri , Waddell Jack , Doane Leah D.
Published: February 2023

Adolescent sleep and mental health are closely linked, however less is known regarding how unique patterns of sleep influence youth mental health. This study aimed to identify subgroups of adolescent sleepers, demographic predictors of subgroup membership, and their prospective links with mental health outcomes. Youth from the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent to Adult Health (N=5,411; 51.8% female) self-reported sleep (duration, sufficiency, problems, bedtime), depressive symptoms, alcohol use, cannabis use, and demographics at baseline (W1; 1994-1995; Mage=15.06) and one-year later (W2; 1996). Latent profile analysis revealed three sleep profiles: Optimal (highest quantity/quality, earliest bedtime), Low-Quantity/Later Bedtime (lowest duration/sufficiency, latest bedtime), and Low-Quality (highest problems). Several demographic covariates were associated with profiles. Less-optimal profiles were associated with greater W2 depressive symptoms and substance use, controlling for W1 levels. Youth with low-quantity/later bedtimes were especially at-risk for cannabis use. Results may inform interventions seeking to improve adolescent mental health by targeting multiple aspects of sleep.
Uncertainty can explain apparent mistakes in causal reasoning
Authors: Marchant Nicolas , Quillien Tadeg , Chaigneau Sergio
Published: February 2023

Humans excel at causal reasoning, yet at the same time consistently fail to respect its basic axioms. They seemingly fail to recognize, for instance, that only the direct causes of an event can affect its probability (the Markov condition). How can one explain this paradox? Here we argue that standard normative analyses of causal reasoning mostly apply to the idealized case where the reasoner has perfect confidence in her knowledge of the underlying causal model. Given uncertainty about the correct representation of a causal system, it is not always rational for a reasoner to respect the Markov condition and other ‘normative’ principles. To test whether uncertainty can account for the apparent fallibility of human judgments, we formulate a simple computational model of a rational-but-uncertain causal reasoner. In a re-analysis of a recent causal reasoning study, the model fits the data significantly better than its standard normative counterpart.
Identifying Sociodemographic Community Variables and High School Characteristics Predictive of Subsequent Collegiate Alcohol Consumption: An Exploratory Study
Authors: Wood Phillip K , Heath Andrew C. , Sher Kenneth J.
Published: February 2023

Objective. To assess associations of student academic characteristics, communities-of-origin and high schools attended with pre-enrollment and collegiate alcohol consumption using university, census, and public school data.Participants. 2,740 first-time, freshman college students at a large, public, Midwestern university (54% female).Measures. Self-reported drinking in the months prior to matriculation and in the first four semesters were merged with registrar records of ACT scores, high school core GPA, and first-generation college student status and census tract information associated with the community they lived in during their senior year of high school. For 79% of the participants, published public high school institutional characteristics were available from state administrative records.Results: Factor analyses of the census tract data and high school characteristics data yielded community factors of Socioeconomic Disadvantage-Advantage and Rural/White - Urban/Black, and School Factors of Predominantly White Not Poor student composition, School Discipline Problems, and Human Capital Investment. Entering academic aptitude and achievement was most strongly associated with alcohol use, especially for men. Smaller effects were found for the census variables, but these were confined to precollege assessments and men. Smaller protective effects in the sophomore year were also found for students who attended schools with a higher proportion of White students.Conclusions: Although entering intra-individual, student characteristics appear most associated with collegiate substance use, examination of unique additional effects for census and high school administrative records highlights the fact that such additional sources of data holds potential for improving prediction of substance use risk.
A conceptual framework for studying science research careers
Authors: Cañibano Carolina , Woolley Richard , Iversen Eric J. , Hinze Sybille , Hornbostel Stefan , Tesch Jakob
Published: February 2023

The emergence of open science and new data practices is changing the way research is done. Opportunities to access data through purpose built platforms and repositories, combined with emerging data and meta-data curation practices are expanding data availability in many fields. This paper presents a conceptual framework for studying scientific research careers, motivated by opportunities to link empirical datasets to construct new analyses that address remaining and emerging knowledge gaps. The research career conceptual framework (RCCF) emerges from a review of relevant theories and empirical findings regarding research careers. The paper reviews existing models and develops a typology of research careers. It also compiles a list of variables drawn from the literature on research careers. Two preliminary demonstrations of linking datasets to address empirical questions are outlined. The final discussion advocates an approach to emerging data opportunities that combines theories and models with empirical research questions as being superior to an approach that produces ad hoc explanations on the basis of ‘data fishing’ exercises.
Effects of Preemptive Empathy Interventions on Reply Toxicity among Highly Active Social Media Users
Authors: Oswald Lisa
Published: February 2023

Can we reduce toxicity in online communication using behavioral interven- tions? Following the theoretical turn towards the role of empathy for demo- cratic discourse, this preregistered survey experiment tests various changes in an online discussion environments’ user interface (nudges) and an educa- tive intervention targeting users’ motivation to engage in empathy (boost) to reduce reply toxicity. Participants were recruited via Facebook Ads in the United States and Germany to acquire a sample of N = 2,154 highly active social media users. Based on their reported political attitudes, participants were asked to comment on social media statements they likely disagree with. Compared to the control group, neither the empathy or perspective taking nudges nor the friction placebo reduced reply toxicity. Boosting decreased reply toxicity to some degree but the effect was not robust against the inclu- sion of covariates. However, all nudging interventions significantly increased the length of replies. Overall, toxicity was highest among people with high online activity. While reducing toxicity online does not seem to work via simple changes in the user interface (nudging), more complex interventions (boosting) appear more promising to preemptively reduce toxicity before important voices are forced out of the public discourse online.
How do researchers generate scientific and societal impacts? Toward an analytical and operational framework
Authors: D'Este Pablo , Ramos-Vielba Irene , Woolley Richard , Amara Nabil
Published: February 2023

Models of research systems increasingly emphasize collaborations between networks of heterogeneous actors, to both produce knowledge and formulate interdisciplinary responses to societal challenges and market needs. In this context, researchers’ goals and practices are required to satisfy professional requirements for new scientific findings and societal demand for relevant knowledge. Researchers may need also to find ways to reconcile tensions between these two missions. This article proposes an analytical and operational framework that incorporates individual, organizational and process-context factors to explain distinct configurations of scientific and societal impacts from research. The framework emphasises the role of productive interactions with different nonacademic actors as a mechanism for reconciling the scientific and societal missions of research.
Differential grandparental investment when maternal grandmothers are dead vs alive
Authors: Tanskanen Antti O , Helle Samuli , Danielsbacka Mirkka
Published: February 2023

Grandparents can increase their inclusive fitness by investing time and resources in their grandchildren. However, not all grandparents make such investments equally, and between-grandparent differences in this regard can be predicted based on paternity uncertainty, lineage, and grandparents’ sex. Using population-based data for English and Welsh adolescents (n = 1,430), we examined whether the death of the most important grandparent (in terms of investment), the maternal grandmother (MGM), changes relative support for existing hypotheses predicting differential grandparental-investment patterns. To contrast the predictions of the grandparental-investment hypotheses, we used generalized order-restricted information criterion approximation (GORICA). We consequently found that, when MGMs are alive, the most-supported hypothesis is ‘discriminative grandparental solicitude’, which ranks grandparental investment as MGMs > maternal grandfathers (MGFs) > paternal grandmothers (PGMs) > paternal grandfathers (PGFs). However, when MGMs are deceased, the paternity uncertainty hypothesis (MGFs = PGMs > PGFs) receives the most support; this is due to increased investment by PGMs. Thus, the standard evolutionary hypothesis explaining differential grandparental investment, and paternity uncertainty, receives the most support only when the heaviest investors (i.e., MGMs) are deceased.
When “Everyone has a Role to Play” – How Political Ideologies Shape Political Leaders’ Narratives on Governmental and Civic Roles in Times of Crises
Authors: Kirgil Zeynep Melis
Published: February 2023

In times of crisis, political leaders draw on collective narratives and symbolic resources to foster social cohesion. This mixed-methods comparative study investigates how political leaders differ in their use of collective intentionality across countries (RQ1), and how political ideologies define governmental and civic roles (RQ2) during the coronavirus pandemic. The data consists of a text corpus of national addresses by the leaders of nine English-speaking countries during March 2020 (n = 133 926), the beginning of the global COVID-19 pandemic. Following the computational grounded theory approach (Nelson, 2020), the computational and qualitative analysis revealed three key findings. First, political leaders across all countries emphasized unity and calls for solidarity and social action. Second, liberal leaders relied more on narratives that focus on a whole-of-society approach, while conservative leaders tended to emphasize a hierarchical or a twofold approach. The whole-of-society approach presents a narrative of equality and shared responsibility between governmental and civic duties and enforcement. In contrast, the hierarchical approach emphasizes governmental actions and responsibilities, portraying citizens as engaged citizens in health-related action with a more passive, compliant, and trusting nature. The twofold approach stresses the empowerment of the people with strong governmental enforcement in cases of non-compliance. Third, governmental and civic roles across different political ideologies were out of sync with existing patterns of political ideologies, demonstrating the importance of a more nuanced analysis of political ideologies in times of crisis.

The physico-chemical parameters cum microbial loads of water from earthen, concrete and collapsible plastic tank, tagged A, B and C respectively, were used to culture Clarias gariepinus at the Integrated Organic Fish Farm of the Department of Fisheries and Aquaculture, Nnamdi Azikiwe University, Awka, Anambra State, Nigeria, which lasted for sixteen (16) weeks. Water samples were collected aseptically every week throughout the duration of the research. The mean values of physico-chemical parameters using analysis of variance (ANOVA), showed that there was no significant difference (p>0.05) in treatments A, B and C. The results showed that earthen pond recorded the highest in Biological Dissolved Oxygen (BOD) 3.67±0.417 mg/L, Sulphate 4.55±0.016 mg/L, Nitrate 3.12±0.023mg/L and Magnesium 1.28±0.042 mg/L, followed by B and C, while concrete pond recorded highest mean values in temperature 28.17±0.234°C, pH 7.10±0.252, alkalinity 31.17±0.189 mg/L, calcium 0.53±0.O27 mg/L, and potassium 11.68±0.016 mg/L followed by A and C. and collapsible plastic tank recorded highest mean values in dissolved oxygen DO 9.83±0.240 mg/L, and transparency 60.67±0.667 cm/L. The physico-chemical parameters were all within the accepted standard range by the World Health Organization (WHO) and Federal Emergency Protection Agency for culturing fish. The Least Significant Difference (LSD) showed that there were significant differences (p<0.05) between the bacteria load of water samples from A and C receptacles. It also, showed that there was no significant difference (p>0.05) between bacteria load of water samples from A and B receptacles. Water sample from A, had the highest CFU count of Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus sp., Streptococcus faecalis, Proteus sp, Clostridium perfringens and Pseudomonas aeruginosa of 0.62×107, followed by B water samples with Streptococcus faecalis, Staphylococcus sp. and Escherichia coli of 1.16 × 107 and C water samples E. coli and Staphylococcus sp. with count of 1.78 × 107. Proper management of culturing media in different receptacles should be monitored to reduce microbial load in Clarias gariepinus, to avoid fish mortality and ill-health to human being when consumed.

The Impact of Academic Acculturation and Language Proficiency on International Students’ University Experience and Academic Success: A Longitudinal Study
Authors: Neumann Heike , Kozak Stephanie , Gil Leslie
Published: February 2023

The Canadian Academic English Language (CAEL) assessment is a proficiency test for university admission. Most research has focused on the paper edition, not the recent computer edition (CE). Validity research on other proficiency tests found that relationships between proficiency scores and academic achievement measures can be tenuous because other factors intervene in students’ chances of success. Research on academic success has examined academic acculturation as one factor. However, the impact of acculturation on academic achievement has not been examined alongside language proficiency test scores. The current study investigated this issue by focusing on students with a range of CAEL scores and examining the relationship between CAEL-CE scores, academic achievement, and academic acculturation. Forty-four students at a Canadian English-medium university participated in the study. Students’ grade point averages were obtained, and an academic acculturation questionnaire was administered. A subset of participants took part in focus groups. The findings and their implications are discussed.
Hipocalemia: fisiopatología, diagnóstico y manejo clínico
Authors: Triunfo Trabado Sergio , Calvo Jiménez Jafeth Jesús , González Garro Ángela Rocío
Published: February 2023

La hipocalemia es un trastorno electrolítico comúnmente encontrado durante la práctica clínica. Como el principal catión intracelular, la homeostasis del potasio asegura un funcionamiento celular óptimo. Reducciones transitorias en la concentración plasmática de potasio dependen de la ingesta dietética y su excreción. El límite inferior tolerable para la concentración de potasio sérico (K+) es 3.5 mmol/L. A pesar de que la hipocalemia es bien tolerada en individuos sanos, sus casos severos pueden causar repercusiones serias. Las manifestaciones clínicas de hipocalemia varían dependiendo de la severidad y la duración de la perdida de potasio del cuerpo. Síntomas incluyen palpitaciones cardiacas, fatiga, espasmos musculares, adormecimiento muscular y en casos severos arritmias cardiacas y falla cardiaca. La ruta principal de excreción de K+ es la orina (90%), mientras que un pequeño porcentaje (10%) es removido por el tracto gastrointestinal. Pérdidas externas de potasio se ven exacerbadas en individuos con diarrea crónica y sudoración prolongada. La historia clínica y el examen físico son usualmente suficientes para determinar la causa del déficit, reponer las reservas de potasio, diagnosticar y aliviar los factores causales para evitar futuras recurrencias. En la mayoría de las ocasiones, se reporta una recuperación óptima cuando los factores subyacentes son eliminados. Potasio suplementario resulta vital en todos los casos. La ruta de administración de potasio se debe basar en la severidad de la enfermedad. El objetivo de este trabajo es proporcionar una revisión crítica de la fisiopatología, diagnóstico clínico y manejo de la hipocalemia.
INCREASING THE COMPETITIVENESS OF ENTERPRISES UNDER THE CONDITIONS OF DIGITALIZATION
Authors: Kotelnikova Iuliia
Published: February 2023

The problem of competitiveness of firms, industries, and countries is one of the most urgent and dynamic in the world economy. This is explained by the fact that its analysis is influenced by many factors, but first of all the change in the rates of economic growth of countries, the level of unemployment, the place of a country or firm (enterprise, organization) in the world economy, etc. The significance of this problem is especially growing in the conditions of growing global economic competition for the right of each country to occupy a worthy place in the system of the world economy. The transition of the modern economy to a qualitatively new level involves the creation of innovative industries, technologically developed business, a change in the institutional conditions of the functioning of economic entities, improvement of the living environment, an increase in labor productivity, and, finally, the transformation of the chains of creation by enterprises. The practice of recent decades shows that concepts of competitiveness can differ significantly depending on the technological structure, which is based on the level of development of productive forces. In the process of digital transformation, enterprises are transformed into organizations with digital thinking. The product moving to the market becomes digital. The quality of the products and services provided is achieved through personalization, individualization, improved functionality, system integration of transport and logistics activity, current revenue models, modern design, application development. The competitiveness of the enterprise can be defined as the ability of the enterprise to better provide the supply of goods or services, compared to competitors, by providing goods or services with differentiated properties while complying with quality standards. Digitization makes it possible to find partners anywhere on the planet, to effectively build commodity and money chains, and to conduct profitable foreign economic activities. Strengthening the competitiveness of the enterprise will depend on how quickly and effectively digital solutions will be implemented in business, since digital technologies have become the driving force of the socio-economic development of many countries of the world, determining the basis of sustainable development in the future.
LOGISTICS MODELS OF OPTIMIZING THE PROCESS OF PROVIDING THE ENTERPRISE WITH MATERIAL RESOURCES
Authors: Kraevska Alla , Bezsmertna Oksana , Shvarts Iryna
Published: February 2023

The article examines the peculiarities of optimizing the process of providing enterprises with material resources based on the complex use of logistic models. The need to quickly respond to the needs of consumers, which are constantly changing, caused increased interest in this issue both in scientific circles and in the applied sense. The tasks of ensuring the efficiency of material flows can be conventionally divided into those related to the movement of production and technical products, and tasks related to the movement of goods. To solve these problems, the article proposes to use modeling methods that involve the definition of the objective function. Having this data and information about the input parameters of the material flow, it is possible to obtain a solution to the problem with the highest level of efficiency. The article systematizes a number of logistical problems related to material flows that are typical for most enterprises. The problem of choosing the optimal order size using the Harris (Wilson) formula is considered in detail on the example of real data. According to this model, total costs should be minimal, the occupied volume of the warehouse should not exceed the actual volume of the warehouse, and the costs of purchase and storage should not exceed the available budget of the enterprise. Also, the solution to the problem of choosing a "Make-or-Buy" raw material supply system was implemented: to buy or to manufacture independently. Solving the "Make-or-Buy" problem allows you to make quick decisions when changing the production capabilities of both the manufacturer and the supplier. At the same time, the main goal remains cost minimization. Both problems were implemented using MS Excel "Solution Search" tools and have appropriate graphic support. Thus, having the input parameters of the problem and the objective function, the considered models allow generating mathematically justified and effective management decisions. The use of information technologies significantly accelerates and facilitates the process of using the specified models and allows creating a system of constant monitoring of changes in the company's needs for material resources.
ІDENTIFICATION OF THE MARKET MODEL OF THE DOMESTIC DEPOSIT MARKET: CONCENTRATION ANALYSIS
Authors: Shymanska Oksana , Horodetskyi Maxym
Published: February 2023

The effective functioning of the domestic deposit market presupposes the presence of positive dynamics regarding the equal placement of free funds of legal entities and individuals in the accounts of all functioning banks at the optimal level of the interest rate on deposits. It is under such conditions that the studied market would present a model of perfect competition. However, the conducted research confirmed the fact that the domestic deposit market is not an example of a model of free (unrestricted) competition. With the use of official NBU data and well-known methods for determining the level of market power (concentration coefficient, Herfindahl-Hirschman index), we found a generally "moderate concentration" of the studied market, which allows us to characterize it as a market model of monopolistic competition, despite the fact that over the past four years state banks in Ukraine demonstrated significant (in their favor) differences in the share of population deposits compared to private and foreign banks. In the Ukrainian deposit market, in general, there is an outflow of funds from deposit accounts, which is explained, first of all, by low interest rates on deposits. In this context, it is extremely important for banks to intensify efforts to introduce new deposit products, thereby creating opportunities to increase term deposits, which, among other opportunities for accumulating funds, are relatively stable. They are one of the important sources of financing assets, increasing the liquidity and solvency of banks, intensifying credit and investment activities and, in general, supporting the financial stability of the country's banking system.
THEORETICAL AND METHODOLOGICAL ASPECTS OF FIXED ASSETS MANAGEMENT OF CONSTRUCTION ENTERPRISES
Authors: Yepifanova Iryna , Tkachuk Lyudmila , Berkatyuk Yulia
Published: February 2023

In the conditions of war, a decrease in the number of available resources, and the growth of global competition, only those producers who are able to effectively use resources, in particular the main means of production, can function successfully. Despite the significant number of developments, it is important to further research issues related to the management of fixed assets of construction enterprises.

The purpose of the article is the systematization of theoretical and methodological approaches to the management of the main means of construction enterprises.

Approaches to determining the essence of fixed assets are systematized. The systematization of approaches to defining the essence of the concept of "main means" showed that the main means should be understood as means of labour used to influence the objects of labour to obtain the final product.

It was determined that fixed assets are classified by the nature of participation in the production process, by industry, by use, by groups, depending on the impact on the production process, by sources of acquisition.

Management of the company's fixed assets involves constant monitoring of the existing composition of fixed assets and its comparison with the obtained financial results. Management of fixed assets should be carried out throughout the entire life cycle of the fixed asset object.

The main methodological approaches to the assessment of fixed assets are summarized. Indicators that characterize the state of management of fixed assets can be divided into the following groups: provision of the enterprise with fixed assets; assessment of the technical condition of fixed assets; intensity of movement of fixed assets; assessment of the use of the active part of fixed assets; efficiency of use of fixed assets; management indicators.

Prospects for improving the state of management of the capital assets of construction enterprises have been determined. Amortization policy is the most effective tool for revitalizing investment processes. Depreciation policy provides a reliable internal source of capital investment financing.
Legal aid amid bureaucracy
Authors: Reinke Amanda J. , Bevilacqua Nicole
Published: February 2023

Disaster lawyers navigate bureaucratic impediments to insurance claims and settlement and federal recovery and relief, and they act as third-party facilitators for disaster-affected clients to help enable their survival efforts. The roles of such lawyers in navigating paperwork and bureaucratic processes on behalf of survivors, while assisting them in meeting basic daily needs, has become seen as being integral to recovery in these processes. We utilise findings from semi-structured interviews with disaster law practitioners working with disaster survivors in the south-eastern United States (SEUS) to examine the bureaucratic socio-legal life of disasters. We marshal bureaucratic violence literature to analyse disaster law practitioners’ perspectives of the socio-legal nature of disasters in the SEUS, demonstrating that the bureaucratic technologies of recovery are primary obstacles to expedient recovery and successful legal work with survivors.
In support of free-standing Indigenous legal systems
Authors: Miller Bruce Granville
Published: February 2023

US and Canadian approaches to tribal legal orders have taken different paths, and here I argue that the Canadian model should move towards free-standing Indigenous courts as they currently exist in the United States. The Canadian approach has focussed on the issue of over-incarceration of Indigenous prisoners, but even newer efforts have stopped short of recognising at least partial criminal and civil jurisdiction. The Canadian approach fails to support Indigenous jurisdiction and community rebuilding and leaves Indigenous peoples vulnerable to non-Indigenous judges, who fail to accommodate Indigenous approaches to justice. Early attempts at shared jurisdiction have been naïve regarding Indigenous internal social processes and the struggle over what constitutes proper cultural practices. My data come from my own work with Coast Salish tribes, where I have studied tribal histories and legal practices on both sides of the international border as well their views of federal policy in both Canada and the United States.

Possibilities of Evaluating the Dimensional Acceptability of Workpieces Using Computer Vision
Authors: Svalina Ilija , Turinski Dražen , Grgić Ivan , Havrlišan Sara
Published: February 2023

This paper discusses the possibilities of an automated solution for determining dimensionally accurate and defective products using a computer vision system. In a real industrial environment, research was conducted on a prototype of a quality control machine, i.e. a machine that, based on product images, evaluates whether the product is accurate or defective using computer vision. Various geometric features are extracted from the obtained images of products, on the basis of which a fuzzy inference system based on Fuzzy C-means clustering features is created. The extracted geometric features represent the input variables, and the output variable has two values - true and false. The root mean square error in the evaluation of the accuracy and defectiveness of products ranges between 0.07 and 0.16. Through this research, valuable findings and conclusions were reached for the future research, since this topic is poorly examined in the most renowned databases.
Legal Aspects of e-Health and the Reality of the Polish Society
Authors: Oręziak Bartłomiej
Published: February 2023

This paper discusses issues relating to the possibility of implementing telemedicine solutions within the framework of the Polish healthcare system financed from public funds. Firstly, as part of introductory remarks, an outline of technical, technological and civilizational progress, as well as its correlation with the law and social behaviours is made. Secondly, due to the lack of a legal definition of e-health, the definitions proposed in literature and created by selected international and non-governmental organizations are recalled. In this way the essence of this concept is revealed. Thirdly, based on relevant international documents, the overall potential of e-health is presented. This shows the various benefits that the use of avant-garde solutions within the healthcare system can bring. Fourthly, a catalogue of the possible barriers to the deployment of e-health solutions is presented. From the presentation, it becomes clear that such processes will not run seamlessly. Fifthly, an outline of the right to healthcare is provided on the basis of instruments of national and international law, indicating the most important elements of the right. Sixthly, a forecast of the demand for telemedicine services in Poland is presented. Seventhly, the sociological concept of the so-called digital exclusion is introduced and the occurrence of this phenomenon in the Polish society is discussed. The paper ends with a brief summary, in which the author considers all the arguments presented and offers his own position and de lege ferenda proposals for the Polish legislator.
