Bone is subjected to a plethora of mechanical stresses, which have been found to directly influence the equilibrium between bone resorption and formation. Taking this into account, we present herein a novel biomimicking 3-dimensional model that applies cyclic uniaxial compression onto cells co-cultured on 3-dimensionally printed scaffolds consisting of poly L-lactic acid/poly(ε-caprolactone)/poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-
co
-3-hydroxyvalerate)/Sr–nanohydroxyapatite. The aim is to investigate how compression can modulate the balance between osteogenesis and osteoclastogenesis in co-culture, as well as the polarization of macrophages. One of the key aspects of the current study is the unprecedented development of a growth-factor-free co-culture, sustainable solely by the cross talk between human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells and human peripheral blood mononuclear cells for their survival and osteogenic/osteoclastogenic differentiation capacity, respectively. Real-time polymerase chain reaction gene expression analysis of the mechanically stimulated constructs revealed up-regulation of the osteogenesis-related markers osteocalcin, osteoprotegerin, and runt-related transcription factor 2, with concurrent down-regulation of the osteoclastogenic markers dendritic-cell-specific transmembrane protein, nuclear factor of activated T cells 1, and tartrate acid phosphatase. The secretion of the receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-Β ligand and macrophage colony-stimulating factor, as determined from enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, was also found to depict lower levels compared to static conditions. Finally, macrophage polarization was examined via confocal imaging of tumor necrosis factor-α and interleukin-10 secretion levels, as well as through nitric oxide synthase and arginase 1 markers’ gene expression, with the results indicating stronger commitment toward the M2 phenotype after mechanical stimulation.

Published: January 2025

At the present stage of the development of the education system in our country, work with gifted schoolchildren is actively carried out in three areas: in general education organizations, in organizations of additional education and within the framework of the Olympiad and competition movement. The participation of gifted children in Olympiads and competitions allows them to express themselves, increase their competence in the field of science and activity of interest, creates conditions for the development of the abilities of a gifted student and stimulates his self-development. The All-Russian School Olympiad remains one of the most prestigious Olympiads for schoolchildren in Russia. Several million Russian schoolchildren take part in it every year (about 7 million in 2023/24 academic years). The regions of the Russian Federation organize work on the preparation and support of the participants of the School in different ways, which affects the activity of the participants. The article analyzes the participation of schoolchildren from Kostroma and the Kostroma region in the All-Russian School Olympiad in Humanities for five years. The results demonstrated the desire of Kostroma schoolchildren to participate in this Olympiad, however, they showed the need to strengthen the work on accompanying gifted schoolchildren in the process of preparation and participation in the Olympiad, as well as in the post-Olympic period. The results of the study were obtained on the basis of an analysis of documentation and statistical data provided by the State Budgetary Institution of the Kostroma region “Center for Gifted Schoolchildrenˮ.
Introducing the paradigm of “emotional-behavioral regulation” into pedagogical discourse to develop schoolchildren’s ability to accept others
Authors: Savelyeva Olga E.
Published: January 2025

Currently, there is a contradiction between the educational documents’ declaration of the need to build in schoolchildren a value-based attitude towards others as well as the ability to accept themselves and others, a large number of theoretical works devoted to tolerance, and the low real level of tolerance in Russian society recorded by researchers. The author makes an attempt to resolve this contradiction by introducing the paradigm of “emotional-behavioral regulation” into the pedagogical discourse in addition to the paradigm of “character education”. Based on theories about the factors of personality development, character education alone cannot cover all the factors of the intolerance a person can demonstrate towards other people. Character education involves cultivation of various qualities and skills on a rational-cognitive basis, while many factors of hostile behavior are of a psychophysiological nature and require teaching schoolchildren techniques for overcoming stress and emotions, self-regulation techniques, automation of conflict-free behavioral reactions, etc. The author proposes to organize work to overcome the psychophysiological factors of intolerance within the framework of a separate paradigm. The paradigm of emotional-behavioral regulation will be aimed at teaching schoolchildren to overcome negative emotions, switching their emotional background and imprinting prosocial behavior patterns. The proposed paradigm is based on non-cognitive behavioral methods, coping strategies and emotional regulation techniques. The article substantiates the expediency of the proposed paradigm, and also develops its categorical apparatus.

Authors: Moss Vladimir A. , Volkova Elena V.
Published: January 2025

The article raises the question of the relevance of studying special directorial abilities and the possibilities of the differentiation-integration theory of development for organizing this research. In an empirical study of the relationship between the measure of differentiation and the measure of hierarchy of the concept Director with semantic, event-active and associative-figurative thinking, schoolchildren and students (N=403) studying the specialty of film director at the age of 12 to 52 years took part, among them 40% were male. The diagnostic complex included a directed associative experiment, a visual prototype of the Director concept and the “Five Frames” test. The data obtained indicate a reliable influence of the organizational features of the Director concept on the main types of directorial thinking. It has been revealed that the higher the degree of differentiation and the measure of hierarchy of the Director concept, the higher the level of semantic, event-active and associative-figurative thinking. Both linear increasing and U-, Ո-shaped changes in the level of director's thinking were discovered depending on the ratio of the measure of differentiation and the measure of hierarchy of the concept Director.

Published: January 2025

This study aims to analyze the relationship between attitudes toward mental health and help-seeking behavior among psychology students at Nusa Cendana University. The participants consisted of 217 active students aged 18-24, selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using questionnaires measuring attitudes toward mental health and help-seeking behavior, which were then analyzed using Pearson product-moment correlation. The findings indicate that the majority of respondents (77.4%) exhibit a positive attitude toward mental health, while 22.6% hold negative attitudes, reflecting stigma and barriers to help-seeking. The results also demonstrate a significant positive relationship between attitudes toward mental health and help-seeking behavior (r = 0.269; p < 0.05). This suggests that a positive attitude toward mental health contributes to an increased likelihood of students seeking support, whether informally from friends and family or formally from professional services. The study concludes that positive attitudes toward mental health can influence students' help-seeking behavior. The recommendation from this research is to promote ongoing education to reduce stigma and improve mental health literacy, enabling students to seek support more openly when facing mental health challenges.

This study aims to describe the dimensions of religiosity—belief, connection, behavior, and togetherness—among adolescents at GMIT Jemaat Efata Liliba. The research employs a qualitative method. To obtain accurate data and information, the study uses interview techniques for data collection. Purposive sampling is used for participant selection, with a total of 6 adolescents from GMIT Jemaat Efata Liliba. Involvement in religious activities is influenced by parental guidance and social interactions, providing both personal and social benefits, and fostering a deep relationship with God. This study illustrates how various aspects of religiosity affect and shape the religious experiences of adolescents.

Abstract. This research aims to see the description of the psychological well-being of health workers at the Fatumnasi Health Center using a photovoice approach with thematic analysis. This research is important to do because there has been no research at this Health Center that reveals psychological well-being from the perspective of workers at Fatumnasi Heatlh Center. This research uses the theory of psychological well-being from Ryff (1989) which includes six dimensions of psychological well-being, namely self acceptance, positive relations with others, autonomy, environmental mastery, purpose in life, and personal growth. This research involved 8 health workers working at the Fatumnasi Health Center, who were selected using a purposive sampling technique where participants must meet the criteria to describe psychological well-being from the perspective of health workers. The results of the analysis show a description of psychological well-being related to the following four themes: self-acceptance, mastery of confusion, autonomy, and the hopes of a health worker.

The Covid-19 pandemic has necessitated a shift from face-to-face learning to online learning. This transition has led to an alarming phenomenon known as learning loss, characterised by a decline in students' academic knowledge and skills. The impact of the Covid-19 pandemic makes vulnerable to setbacks one of which is students in Disadvantaged, Frontier, and Outermost (3T) areas where inadequate infrastructure, such as limited internet access, and lack of technological proficiency hinder effective learning. The context of this article is in the 3T areas, especially Merauke. Addressing learning loss is crucial to prevent long-term consequences such as exacerbating educational disparities and reducing the overall quality of human capital. Meanwhile, there is a research gap investigating the impact of learning loss and proposing effective strategies to overcome this problem. This article uses descriptive analysis. This article comprehensively explores the impact of learning loss in 3T areas and presents effective mitigation approaches to address this challenge.

This study highlights mental health as a global health challenge that requires serious attention, especially among students. The main objective is to examine the relationship between Mental Health Knowledge and Help-Seeking Behavior among psychology students at Nusa Cendana University. Using a quantitative approach, this research employs proportional sampling and two measurement scales: the Adolescents' Mental Health Knowledge Questionnaire to assess mental health knowledge, and the General Help-Seeking Questionnaire to evaluate help-seeking behavior. The data analysis method used is Pearson's product-moment correlation, with the aid of Microsoft Excel and IBM SPSS Statistic 26 software. The results indicate a significant relationship between mental health knowledge and help-seeking behavior, as evidenced by a significance value of 0.000 (below 0.05). The correlation between the two variables is 0.435, which indicates a moderate and positive correlation. This means that the lower the mental health knowledge, the lower the help-seeking behavior. The study emphasizes the importance of students' proactive role in increasing their awareness of mental health. Students are encouraged to seek information from credible sources, such as books, scientific articles, seminars, and training sessions. Additionally, they are advised to engage in discussions with lecturers or supervisors, as well as participate in mental health-related organizations to broaden their knowledge. Sharing knowledge through discussions with peers is also expected to help strengthen their understanding of mental health.

Empowering Cooperatives and Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) is strategic to boost the national economy. East Nusa Tenggara (ENT), as one of the cooperative provinces, is experiencing rapid growth in both quantity and quality. As pillars of regional and national economics, Cooperatives need to be developed, especially for small communities, in their various productive businesses. The development of cooperatives in NTT Province is quite significant until 2023, namely 4,301. Three thousand eight hundred sixty-six cooperatives are legal entities and active, while 435 cooperatives are not yet legal entities. The Koperasi Simpan Pinjam Sahabat Literasi Flobamorata (KSP Batera) is an institution founded by members who have the same destiny and share the same responsibility in the economic field. Its development is quite advanced regarding assets and the number of members. The main problem faced by KSP Batera is that financial management is still manual, and an Annual Member Meeting (AMM) has yet to be held. This happens because the educational background is inappropriate, and there needs to be more knowledge about the Cooperative Financial Accounting System (CFAS). Training activities for the management team on a computer-based financial accounting bookkeeping system is the best solution for the future development of this cooperative. The final result of the training activity is that the management team can complete a computer-based bookkeeping system and financial reports and prepare AMM reports to be accounted for after the close of the financial year. Maximum knowledge transfer occurs because the learning model in the form of theory and practice is 30% and 70%, respectively. Apart from that, assistance is also provided for managers both offline and online
