BACKGROUND

Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT) is an evidence-based treatment for child disruptive behavior problems, but access barriers historically limit its reach.

OBJECTIVE

This study examined Pocket PCIT Online, a self-directed web-based adaptation of PCIT, as a potential scalable public health intervention to increase accessibility.

METHODS

In an open trial, 1,480 caregivers accessed the free Pocket PCIT Online intervention. Measures of child behavior, parenting stress, and family conflict were collected pre- and post-intervention. Effectiveness, engagement, retention, and implementation were assessed through an implementation science framework.

RESULTS

Significant improvements were observed across all outcome measures for intervention completers (n= 204). Caregivers reported increased positive child behaviors (d= 0.87) and decreased parenting distress (d= -0.30). Of note, approximately 36% of caregivers reported clinically significant improvements in their children’s frequency of disruptive behaviors. However, only 16.5% of participants completed post-intervention measures. No significant sociodemographic predictors of engagement or retention were identified.

CONCLUSIONS

While Pocket PCIT Online demonstrates potential as a low-cost, accessible and saleable public health intervention for child disruptive behaviors, strategies to enhance retention and reach historically underserved populations are needed. Strategies for improving engagement and retention are discussed.

Authors: Ibrahim Eiman , Amoateng Magdelene , Domenicano Ilaria , Werner Linda , Mensah Edward , Thomas Aiswarya
Published: December 2024

BACKGROUND

The early detection of pre-symptomatic individuals and the proactive implementation of health guidance through regular primary care visits are essential strategies for the secondary and tertiary prevention of diabetic complications. An interdisciplinary team approach significantly enhances the care of patients with diabetes, integrating the expertise of physicians, dietitians, clinical navigators, pharmacists, and mental health professionals. Central to this collaborative model is the active participation of patients, who play a vital role in managing their health outcomes. This integrated approach facilitates comprehensive care, promoting better health management and improved quality of life for individuals with diabetes.

OBJECTIVE

We aimed to evaluate the association among regular primary care visits, hemoglobin A1C (HbA1C) and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) levels in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

METHODS

We randomly sampled data from 200 patients’ electronic medical records. Mann–Whitney and chi-square tests were used to investigate the association between glycemic control lipid profile and the number of patient visits.

RESULTS

The mean age of the participants was 61.78 years and the average body mass index was 34.5 kg/m2. Females constituted 61.79% of participants. The predominant race seen at the clinic was Black (43.8%), followed by White (42.69%). Patient adherence to scheduled visits was not statistically significantly associated with either HbA1C or LDL (chi-square = 1.1, p-value = 0.29 for HbA1c and chi-square = 1.12, p-value = 0.99 for LDL).

CONCLUSIONS

In the sample studied, no statistically significant association existed between adherence to primary care visits and either HbA1C or LDL levels. This data can guide physicians to invest on favoring high-quality primary care contact rather than high frequency of visits.

Acquisition of Valency Patterns of English Cognitive Attitude Verbs by Chinese EFL Learners: A Corpus-Driven Study
Authors: Liu Hanxu
Published: December 2024

Valency reflects the governing ability of lexical items, detailing their syntactic and semantic relationships within sentences. Studying verb valency enhances our understanding of language use and provides insights into second language acquisition. While substantial research has been conducted on learners’ second language acquisition of English verb valency, issues remain. Most studies rely on written corpora, overlooking spoken language data. Additionally, many focus on a specific verb, which limits the analysis of learners’ acquisition patterns across a broader range. This study adopts the SWECCL (Version 2.0) as the observation corpus and the BNC as the reference corpus to explore valency patterns of think, believe, consider, and prefer among Chinese ELF learners in both spoken and written corpora. Results show that Chinese learners exhibit distinct valency preferences compared to L1 speakers, resulting in overuse, underuse, and misuse. Notably, they often place animate subjects before think and believe, a pattern not observed in L1 speakers. These differences arise from second language exposure, mother tongue transfer, and cultural difference. The findings provide a comprehensive description of verb valency patterns, aiding learners in understanding valency patterns of VCAs and minimizing errors. Additionally, these insights have significant implications for foreign language teaching, particularly in vocabulary instruction.
Turning Trash into Treasure: The Current Landscape and Future of Waste-to-Energy Initiatives in India
Authors: Sati Kirtika , Vats Aditi
Published: December 2024

Waste management in India has long been a pressing challenge, exacerbated by rapid urbanization and population growth. Among the various strategies to tackle this issue, waste-to-energy (WtE) initiatives have emerged as a promising solution, converting municipal solid waste into usable energy. This paper explores the current landscape of WtE initiatives in India, assessing their effectiveness, challenges, and future prospects. Despite the potential of WtE technologies to mitigate waste disposal problems and contribute to renewable energy production, their implementation in India faces significant hurdles, including technological, financial, and regulatory barriers. The existing WtE projects across different states, highlighting successful case studies such as the Okhla WtE plant in Delhi and the Narela-Bawana plant, which have demonstrated considerable capacity in waste processing and energy generation. Furthermore, we have analysed the policy framework supporting WtE projects, including government incentives and regulations under the Swachh Bharat Mission and the National Policy on Biofuels. The review also addresses the socio-environmental impact of WtE plants, considering public perception, environmental concerns, and the role of informal waste sectors. Challenges such as high capital costs, operational inefficiencies, and the need for improved waste segregation at the source are discussed, alongside potential solutions and technological advancements that could enhance WtE viability. Finally, we have outlined a roadmap for the future of WtE in India, advocating for integrated waste management systems, stronger regulatory frameworks, and increased public-private partnerships to foster sustainable development. This paper aims to provide a comprehensive overview of India's WtE landscape, offering insights and recommendations for stakeholders and policymakers to optimize waste management and energy production.

Authors: Sujana Made Sinta Syaharani
Published: December 2024

Legal protection is a key element in strengthening aspects of law enforcement in a country, including in the economic and legal fields. This protection involves the interests of investors, for which investment law in a country must include regulations to protect investors and their invested capital. This research examines the legal protection of investors in the Indonesian capital market with reference to Law No. 8 of 1995 concerning the Capital Market, Law No. 21 of 2011 concerning the Financial Services Authority (OJK), and Law No. 11 of 2020 concerning Job Creation. The research method used is normative juridical with a statute approach and conceptual approach. The problem formulations in this study are: (1) How is the effectiveness of legal protection for investors based on the provisions of Law No. 8 of 1995 and Law No. 21 of 2011? (2) What significant changes does Law No. 11 of 2020 bring to the investor protection mechanism and its impact? This study found that Law No. 8 of 1995 and Law No. 21 of 2011 have provided a comprehensive legal framework for investor protection, but Law No. 11 of 2020 brought a number of changes that affect capital market regulation and investor protection. These changes, including regulatory adjustments and strengthened supervision, are expected to improve investor protection. This research emphasizes the importance of consistent implementation and effective law enforcement to achieve the goal of optimal legal protection.

Authors:   Clínica de Marly, Casas Felipe , Sotomayor Julián , Pachón G Camilo , Carreño S Francisco , Sandoval Leidy , Acosta-Buitrago Lina M.
Published: December 2024

Introduction: Perforation of the gallbladder secondary to blunt trauma without other associated injuries is a rare condition. It usually occurs in conjunction with other abdominal injuries, so when isolated it constitutes a diagnostic challenge due to the late onset of symptoms, which are nonspecific and can occur even when complications already exist. Treatment must be comprehensive from admission and the need for surgical intervention will depend on the stability of the patient, reserving the laparoscopic route for hemodynamically stable patients.

Case presentation: A 22-year-old man with a clinical picture of abdominal pain in the upper hemiabdomen exacerbated in the supine position, associated with nausea and emesis, secondary to blunt abdominal trauma caused by forceful blow during a fight. A computerized axial tomography (CT) of the abdomen with contrast was performed, showing a gallbladder with blood content and possible perforation. Given hemodynamic stability, the patient was taken to laparoscopic cholecystectomy with adequate control of bleeding and without subsequent complications.

Conclusion: Gallbladder trauma represents a challenge for the surgeon considering the variety that exists in terms of its clinical presentation. Its approach should be comprehensive from admission and the need for surgical intervention will depend on the stability of the patient, reserving the laparoscopic route for hemodynamically stable patients.
The resource theory of tensor networks
Authors: Christandl Matthias , Lysikov Vladimir , Steffan Vincent , Werner Albert H. , Witteveen Freek
Published: December 2024

Tensor networks provide succinct representations of quantum many-body states and are an important computational tool for strongly correlated quantum systems. Their expressive and computational power is characterized by an underlying entanglement structure, on a lattice or more generally a (hyper)graph, with virtual entangled pairs or multipartite entangled states associated to (hyper)edges. Changing this underlying entanglement structure into another can lead to both theoretical and computational benefits. We study a natural resource theory which generalizes the notion of bond dimension to entanglement structures using multipartite entanglement. It is a direct extension of resource theories of tensors studied in the context of multipartite entanglement and algebraic complexity theory, allowing for the application of the sophisticated methods developed in these fields to tensor networks. The resource theory of tensor networks concerns both the local entanglement structure of a quantum many-body state and the (algebraic) complexity of tensor network contractions using this entanglement structure. We show that there are transformations between entanglement structures which go beyond edge-by-edge conversions, highlighting efficiency gains of our resource theory that mirror those obtained in the search for better matrix multiplication algorithms. We also provide obstructions to the existence of such transformations by extending a variety of methods originally developed in algebraic complexity theory for obtaining complexity lower bounds. The resource theory of tensor networks allows to compare different entanglement structures and should lead to more efficient tensor network representations and contraction algorithms.

Authors: Efetov S. K. , Semchenko B. S. , Rychkova A. K.
Published: December 2024

Aim: to develop and describe the technique of primary retroperitoneal approach to the superior mesenteric vessels for D3 lymph node dissection in minimally invasive surgical treatment of the right colon cancer; to evaluate the shortterm results of the first series of patients operated by this technique.

Materials and methods. Patients with adenocarcinoma of the right colon were included in the study. The technique of primary retroperitoneal approach consisted in mobilization of the right mesocolon along the posterior surface in the direction of the superior mesenteric vessels, D3 lymph node dissection with crossing of the feeding vessels from the retroperitoneal side using a single-port access system and consisted of five consecutive steps. At the last step of the procedure the peritoneum and the remaining part of the mesentery were crossed laparoscopically to the intended borders of the colon resection. The specimen was extracted through the incision for the single port, followed by the formation of an anastomosis extracorporeally. The endpoints of the study were the short-term results of surgical treatment.

Results. The study presents data of the first 5 patients with adenocarcinoma of the right colon who underwent surgical treatment with D3 lymph node dissection using primary retroperitoneal approach to the superior mesenteric vessels. The duration of the retroperitoneal step averaged 110 (90–140) min. The average blood loss was 62 (10–100) mL. The first two patients underwent a three-stage retroperitoneal portion of the surgery. The other three patients were successfully operated by primary retroperitoneal approach with performing of all five steps of the operation. The number of removed regional lymph nodes was on average 36 (18–57), apical lymph nodes — 6 (4–5), metastatic regional lymph nodes — 3 (2–4). One patient developed a Class 1 Clavien — Dindo complication, which did not require a change in treatment tactics. The average postoperative hospital stay was 8 (5–12) days.

Conclusion. The technique of primary retroperitoneal approach to the superior mesenteric vessels to perform D3 lymph node dissection was described for the first time. The obtained results demonstrated the possibility of using this method for minimally invasive radical treatment of right colon cancer.

Aim: to evaluate the significance of a positive polymerase chain reaction result for hepatitis D virus RNA (HDV RNA) in liver biopsy specimens of patients with chronic hepatitis D (CHD) after completion of antiviral therapy (AVT) as a predictor of infection relapse.

Materials and methods. The study included 21 patients with CHD who received combined AVT with peginterferon alpha and bulevirtide for 48 weeks, followed by bulevirtide monotherapy for 48–96 weeks, making the total duration of antiviral therapy 96–144 weeks. In all patients HDV RNA became undetectable in serum 24–96 weeks from the start of treatment, with aviremia maintained for at least 48 weeks until the end of AVT. At the end of treatment, all patients underwent liver biopsy to detect HDV RNA in liver tissue.

Results. Out of 21 patients with sustained complete virological response (negative polymerase chain reaction result for HDV RNA in serum), 8 (38 %) had HDV RNA detected in liver tissue, indicating that a tissue virological response was not achieved. All 8 patients experienced a relapse of CHD within 24 weeks after discontinuing AVT.

Conclusions. In patients with chronic hepatitis D who have achieved a complete virological response in serum, the absence of a virological response in liver tissue (detection of HDV RNA in liver biopsy) is a predictor of relapse, providing a rationale for the continuation of antiviral therapy.

Authors: Win Myat Noe , (Corresponding Author) Sri Devi Ravana , Shuib Liyana
Published: December 2024

Chronic alcohol consumption poses significant public health challenges globally. In underserved regions, the lack of AI-based interventions for alcohol addiction highlights a critical gap in the healthcare system, particularly regarding the early detection of alcohol abuse. Henceforth, this research aims to raise awareness of alcohol use disorder and proposes a novel AI-powered solution designed with an improved classification algorithm to address this deficiency, with a primary focus on a cutting-edge prediction model. This research shifts the current reactive approach in alcohol addiction intervention to proactive approach by employing an enhanced meta-classification algorithm (EMC) that focuses on improving the interpretability, efficiency, and accuracy of predictions. The proposed EMC ultimately provides a robust tool for healthcare professionals and patients which fosters more effective and personalized intervention strategies for alcohol addiction recovery. The results demonstrate a remarkable 10.13% improvement in balanced accuracy and a 9.72% enhancement in the area under the curve compared to traditional ensemble and state-of-the-art methods. Thus, findings from this study will assist medical practitioners and policymakers in developing evidence-based strategies to combat alcoholism and enhance public health outcomes. By deriving insights from real-world case study, the outcome of this research represents a pioneering effort to betterment of healthcare in underserved regions, offering a low-cost, scalable solution for early detection, and has the potential to significantly improve outcomes in marginalized communities.
A Large-Scale Remote Connection among Virtual ICT Laboratories Ranging over Multiple Network Segments
Authors: T Matsuzawa , S* Akashi
Published: December 2024

The prevalence of Covid-19 has made it impossible to put various kinds of scientific experiments into practice, especially in
Japanese senior high schools, because scientific experiments necessarily require many students to gather in the inside of one
laboratory and to keep academic discussion with each other. This is the reason why on-line lectures, which can be substituted
for on-site lectures, have been developed. Actually, the network skills enabling lectures and meetings to be delivered among
the conference venues on the Internet such as Zoom, Microsoft Teams and Google Meet cannot help senior high school
teachers to conduct on-line scientific experiments. More concretely speaking, they point out that there exist some problems
accompanying on-line lectures, some of which can be summarized as the following:
• Problem 1: Though Zoom can deliver the one-way lectures where the contents are streamed from teachers to students
only, it cannot deliver the round-trip lectures where the contents are streamed not only from teachers to students but
from students to teachers.
• Problem 2: It is difficult to deliver some contents from teachers to students and other contents from students to teachers
in parallel.
In this paper, we introduce a method of constructing virtual ICT laboratories which enables teachers and students to participate
in a common ICT experiment where they can deploy such network application tools as web browsers and web servers and
they can observe individual ICT settings mutually. This method can be realized by the simultaneous combined use of Zoom,
SoftEther VPN and Cisco Packet Tracer. Throughout this paper, this method is assumed to be applied to several groups of
teachers and students belonging to senior high schools which are geographically separated from each other. We can classify
this system into the following:
• Case 1: The case where several PCs on which virtual ICT laboratories are deployed by teachers and students exist in a
common network segment.
• Case 2: The case where several PCs on which virtual ICT laboratories are deployed by teachers and students exist in
several network segments which are geographically separated from each other.
It is one thing to realize Case 1 and quite another to realize Case 2, because the former case does not need the Internet, but the latter case needs it. In other words, while the network circumstances following Case 1 require wireless LAN routers, the
network circumstances following Case 2 require some other network application tools such as SoftEther VPN and so on.
Determinants of Juvenile Deviant Behavior
Authors: Kanarskyi Volodymyr
Published: December 2024

Abstract. Deviant behavior of minors manifests in various forms and with different degrees of intensity, influenced by external social environments and the individual characteristics of the minor's personality, which shape their reactions to various life challenges.
Behavior that deviates from generally accepted expectations can be either constructive or destructive, and deviant behavior, accordingly, can be positive or negative. The evaluation of such behavior is based on the social consequences of the deviation.
The article establishes that within the framework of criminological research, the focus is on negative deviant behavior of minors, which may result in criminal responsibility (in accordance with the Criminal Code of Ukraine) or may not lead to such responsibility (e.g., withdrawal from social contact, self-isolation, or avoidance of societal norms and interaction with others; behavior contrary to common communication norms, such as rudeness; alcohol consumption by minors, which may not yet lead to offenses but is socially unacceptable; behavior that violates aesthetic or moral standards but is not illegal, such as extreme forms of tattooing or piercing; protest behavior, for instance, ignoring traditions or deliberately breaking etiquette; or actions by minors that have the objective signs of criminal offenses, but the perpetrators have not yet reached the age of criminal liability).
The article states that there is no single theory of deviant behavior, including among minors. However, all researchers agree on the following point: eliminating certain factors can significantly reduce the likelihood of deviant behavior, but only a systematic approach to addressing all determinants of deviance provides grounds to talk about a high probability of significantly reducing or partially eradicating such actions.
Deviant behavior is a complex form of social behavior influenced by a range of interconnected factors.
Thus, in each case of deviant behavior, it is insufficient to investigate only biological, psychological, or social factors. A comprehensive approach that considers all these factors together is necessary, as such behavior results from the unsuccessful socialization of youth: due to disruptions in the processes of identification and individualization, such individuals are prone to "social disorganization," where cultural norms, values, and social ties are either absent, weakened, or in conflict with each other.
It is important to create conditions for preventing negative deviant behavior, particularly through the promotion of a healthy lifestyle, fostering a favorable socio-psychological climate in the child's environment, and providing opportunities for personal self-realization in society.

Availability of Administrative Jurisdiction: Problems of Overcoming Discrimination
Authors: Koltun Yuriy
Published: December 2024

Abstract. The article is devoted to the study of the problems of accessibility of administrative proceedings through the lens of overcoming the problems of discrimination. The principle of access to the court is key in ensuring the right to justice in the modern social and legal reality, provided for by numerous international and national norms of the constitutional and industry levels, therefore the change of certain guarantees of the judicial process causes threats to the accessibility of the judicial process.
It was established that new opportunities in the field of electronic justice create a problem of discriminatory access to administrative proceedings. Guarantees of human and citizen rights and freedoms, implementation of the principle of equality and non-discrimination remain the key paradigm of modern society, legal system and practice. The position is motivated that the latest virtual capabilities should be adapted to years-tested and internationally recognized world standards.
The article points out the duality of the nature of administrative proceedings, which consists in the fact that courts can act in a double role: on the one hand, they are institutional state bodies that are obliged to create fair guarantees of protection against discrimination, and on the other hand, they themselves can complicate access to justice for certain groups of people or an individual due to his protected characteristics, thus the person affected by a discriminatory situation receives secondary victimization, which additionally has a destructive effect on the legal reality and the state of law and order and trust in the authorities.
A separate analysis is devoted to the problem of proper access and non-discrimination of persons with disabilities and persons with limited mobility.
It is proposed to expand the list of protected features in Article 8 of the Civil Code of Ukraine in accordance with the legislative policy of preventing and combating discrimination in Ukraine, and to supplement Clause 9 of the Regulations on the Procedure for the Operation of Individual Subsystems (Modules) of the Unified Judicial Information and Telecommunication System with additional guarantees for users with impaired vision, hearing, locomotor apparatus, speech and intellectual development, as well as with various combinations of disorders.
Keywords: electronic justice; administrative justice; rule of law; discrimination; persons with disabilities; protected signs.

Published: December 2024

Abstract. The article is devoted to the definition of the features of the functioning of the currency market in modern conditions, the analysis of existing challenges and threats caused by military actions, the economic situation of the state, the activities of entities that play an important role in the public administration of banking and financial legal relations. A thorough analysis of the peculiarities of the implementation of functions by the National Bank of Ukraine in the field of public administration of currency trading is presented.
Particular attention is paid to determining the competence of the National Bank of Ukraine as a subject of currency control. It was established that in Ukraine it is the National Bank of Ukraine that plays an important role as the subject of foreign exchange control, in particular, regarding compliance with the rules of regulation of foreign exchange transactions in relation to banks, persons who have received a license to carry out foreign exchange transactions, implements scheduled and unscheduled inspections. The effective organization of public administration of the defined sphere of financial relations is achieved through the adoption of normative legal acts of the Board of the National Bank of Ukraine.
The peculiarities of the organization and implementation of financial monitoring and currency supervision by the National Bank of Ukraine are analyzed. It was determined that an important area of activity of the National Bank of Ukraine is the protection of the rights of consumers of financial services, supervision of compliance by banks and other providers of financial services with the current laws on the protection of consumer rights.
The transformational changes in the banking system that have been taking place in recent years under the leadership of the National Bank of Ukraine, including the digitization of the state's banking sector, have been analyzed. It was found out that the military actions led to the radical actions of the National Bank of Ukraine in the sphere of administration of trade in currency values, which helped to calm the panic of the population in the conditions of the beginning of the war in the country.
Keywords: currency; foreign exchange market; foreign exchange values; public administration; trading of foreign exchange values; public administration of trading of foreign exchange values.
Legal Regulation of the Field of Bioenergy in Ukraine
Authors: Marych Khrystyna
Published: December 2024

Abstract. The article is devoted to the study of the current state of domestic legal regulation of bioenergy and the prospects for its improvement.
The production and use of renewable energy in various industries and sectors pursues the goal of ensuring energy independence and security, decarbonization, achieving the maximum level of climate neutrality etc.
Further development of the domestic field of bioenergy is impossible without the implementation of a complex of interrelated measures. These measures are aimed at modernization of the material and technical base, training/retraining of specialists, attraction of investments, improvement of regulatory and legal regulation, implementation of European norms.
The field of bioenergy is regulated by the norms of numerous legal acts of different branches of legislation and of different legal force.
The criteria for the classification of regulatory acts regulating the field of bioenergy can be the sectoral affiliation of the legislation, the field of biomass energy use, and the type of biomass used.
Each type of biomass is characterized by a number of features related to the processes of cultivation, procurement, sale and use. These features require special legal regulation. Such regulation is also required by the specificity inherent in different types of biofuel.
Segments of bioenergy that require both adoption of new and amendments to current legislation are primarily those that have the most potential and promising types of biomass for use in Ukraine, namely: cultivation and use of energy plants for energy production; use of biomass of agricultural waste and residues for energy production; use of household waste biomass for energy production.
Improvement of national legislation in the field of biomass use for energy production and the use of energy produced from biomass, which will contribute to the further development of the field of bioenergy, is impossible without the implementation of relevant European standards and the clear and consistent strategic course of development of various segments of bioenergy with a corresponding plan of measures.
Keywords: energy; bioenergy; biomass; legislation; strategy; directive; legal regulation.
Comparative Legal Analysis of he Peculiarities of State Control Over the Activities of Local Self-Government in Ukraine and Poland
Authors: Pyvovar Maiia
Published: December 2024

Abstract. Within the framework of European integration, the institution of control over the activities of local self-government bodies in Ukraine is gaining relevance. This is a fairly new institution that has not been fully regulated at the level of national legislation. The Law of Ukraine ‘On Local Self-Government’ contains only one provision that mentions that state control over local self-government bodies is carried out on the basis of the law. Thus, this article is devoted to the study of control over the decisions of local self-government bodies, which is inextricably linked to the decentralisation process. Thus, this article is devoted to the study of control over the decisions of local self-government bodies, which is inextricably linked to decentralisation, and to a comparative legal analysis of the State's control over the activities of local self-government in Ukraine and Poland.
The author emphasises the importance of legal regulation of state control over the activities of local self-government in Ukraine. Having analysed the legislative activity of reforming this institution, one can observe a number of shortcomings that may affect the legality in general and the quality of work of local self-government bodies. At this stage, a number of draft laws are still being considered in the second reading by the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine and are expected to be adopted soon.
Today, the reform of local self-government in the context of the national legislation of Ukraine involves the adoption of new laws, the development of new draft laws and amendments to certain other legislative acts of Ukraine regulating the activities of local self-government bodies. The Law of Ukraine ‘On International Territorial Cooperation of Ukraine’ was recently adopted, which will regulate international territorial cooperation between regions and territories of Ukraine and other countries. Starting from 14 August 2024, each local council is obliged to record, store and publish videos of its plenary sessions and meetings of its standing committees. These innovations have been introduced because the Law ‘On Amendments to the Law of Ukraine “On Local Self-Government in Ukraine” on Ensuring Transparency of Local Self-Government’ has come into force. On 24 May 2024, the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine registered in the second reading the Law of Ukraine ‘On Amendments to the Law and Other Legislative Acts of Ukraine on the Development of Democracy at the Local Self-Government Level’, which is still awaiting the signature of the President of Ukraine as well as one of the most important draft laws, which is currently at the second reading stage, the Law of Ukraine ‘On Amendments to the Law of Ukraine “On Local State Administrations” and Some Other Legislative Acts of Ukraine on Reforming the Territorial Organisation of Executive Power in Ukraine’.

Antinomical Perception of Supernatural Law
Authors: Slyvka Stepan
Published: December 2024

Abstract. It is known that the supernatural has a decisive influence on man and nature. Supernatural is the antonym of natural; phenomena opposed to the actual sensory world; that which goes beyond the real and cannot be explained in a natural way; everything that does not fit under the known laws of nature, where spiritual power causes natural, sensible phenomena. An essential feature of the supernatural is that it is a correlate of natural entities as higher and independent of the material world. Certain counterparts of the supernatural have a place in mythology. Note that the term "supernatural" is synonymous with "transcendent", and transcendente is somewhat different from transcendental. In the transcendental, the idea of the legal order or the system of the right is already embedded, and in the transcendental, only the philosophical (metaphysical) ideas of such an idea of the legal order are considered and substantiated. If in the first case we are dealing with statics, then in the second – with dynamics, the implementation process. In some cases, the supernatural can be understood as the unknowable natural. It depends on each person in particular, on his faith, beliefs.
We consider it necessary to consider the concept of the supernatural and compare it with the supernatural. Supernatural and supernatural are two concepts that can be used in different contexts and have different meanings. In particular: 1) Supernatural refers to phenomena that go beyond natural laws and scientific explanations. It cannot mean miraculous, extraordinary events or phenomena that cannot be explained scientifically, such as charms, innate abilities that appear to be extraordinary, etc.; 2) Supernatural can mean the same as supernatural, but can also refer to something outside of nature or ordinary phenomena. This concept can include not only supernatural, but also extraordinary events, phenomena that seem miraculous, as well as what lies outside the normal laws of nature.
In general, the distinction between these terms can be somewhat blurred, and they can be used with the general purpose of indicating something unexpected or extraordinary. The transition from the supernatural to the supernatural is not proven by science.

Legal Status of a Person: Methodological and Conceptual Analysis
Authors: Sorochkin Oleh
Published: December 2024

Abstract. The article is devoted to the analysis of conceptual and methodological factors of the modern understanding of the legal status of a person. It is reasoned that the legal status supports and mediates relations between the state, society and the individual in the paradigm of the legal space.
It is substantiated that the issue of transformation of the legal status of a person has a synergistic and combinatorial nature, which is caused by the expansion of its elemental composition, by the mandatory inclusion of such elements as the principles of law and legitimate interests, and the virtualization and globalization of social reality.
The principles of law are indicated as an element of legal status and it is proved that they have a general form, which includes the basic standards of protection of the rights and freedoms of a person, a legal entity, the state and international institutions. Their universal, transcendental, meta-anthropological nature is foreseen. The principles are divided into two groups - general (internationally recognized) and special (representing special value approaches that are in demand in certain situations in which the subject of law is).
It is proved that according to the ideology of humanism and transcendental democracy, the legitimate interest should be determined by the element of legal status, since the free will of the human personality establishes the tendency and the need for the protective mechanism of the state. The material vision of the rule of law imposes on the law the qualities necessary to guarantee the freedom of the individual by ensuring legal certainty and legitimate expectations of legal subjects in the continuity of state actions.
The modern society cannot in a certain way regulate the new rights as firmly as the classical scope of rights, so new challenges appear concerning the fourth generation of human rights. It is important to prevent violation of the principle of rule of law, legality and non-discrimination in this process.
The author of the article motivated by casual examples that the methodological paradigm of the legal status during the global-virtual transformation should provide essential legal and natural approaches in order to obtain the desired result - revealing the value of a person, his protection and protection and securing him from negative manifestations of devalued relations by methods of legal influence.
Keywords: legal status; person; procedural norms; legitimate interest; principles of law; methodology; transformation of law.

Published: December 2024

Abstract. The article extensively explores the issue of corruption within the Armed Forces of Ukraine and identifies various factors contributing to its prevalence. Among these factors, significant importance is attributed to inadequate salaries for military personnel, instability of the legal framework, insufficient control mechanisms, and low levels of ethical consciousness among military leadership. The analysis conducted demonstrates that these factors pose serious challenges in the sphere of corruption prevention within the structures of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
In order to effectively combat the aforementioned problem, the authors propose a series of specific measures and recommendations. Firstly, it is necessary to implement systemic changes in the realm of financial control, including enhancing transparency and accountability for the use of budgetary funds. Additionally, the development of an effective monitoring and auditing system is crucial to promptly identify instances of corruption.
Furthermore, the authors recommend focusing on enhancing ethical culture among military personnel through the introduction of specialized programs and training on morality and professional ethics. It is also important to improve the system of internal control and discipline and ensure an adequate mechanism for rewarding dedicated service and fair punishment for corrupt violations.
Moreover, the article emphasizes the need to improve mechanisms of accountability and transparency in the activities of military institutions. This entails the development and implementation of effective procedures for public reporting. Such an approach will contribute to increased openness and public confidence in military institutions, thereby reducing the risk of corruption schemes
. In conclusion, it is worth noting that a comprehensive approach to preventing corruption within the Armed Forces of Ukraine is highly necessary today, and adherence to the recommendations laid out by the authors of the article could be a significant step in enhancing transparency and preventing corruption risks within the structures of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
