The article analyzes scientific works, the regulatory and legal framework and the content of educational and methodological documentation regarding the organization of professional training of future intelligence officers. Modern approaches related to distance learning and digitalization of professional training of future specialists of the national security and defense sector of Ukraine, as well as the European Union, have been identified. The results of previous studies have been summarized. It has been established that the professional training of future intelligence officers in the conditions of pandemics and full-scale war can be carried out in the format of blended learning using the means of a specially created informational and educational environment. It is substantiated that blended learning of future military intelligence officers consists of the educational activity in two forms: in form of training sessions in specialized classrooms under the direct supervision of the scientific and pedagogical workers and in form of independent work with electronic resources of a specially created information and educational environment. Varieties of blended learning models in the conditions of pandemic and full-scale war are distinguished, namely "rotational model", "flexible model", "person-oriented model" and "enriched virtual environment model". Pedagogical components of information and educational environment tools for blended learning of future intelligence officers have been developed, which include: independent study of new educational material, independent study of material using elements of creativity, independent improvement of theoretical knowledge and practical skills in conditions of quasi-professional activity, and independent in-depth study of material. The introduction of innovative forms, methods and means of obtaining intelligence information into the professional training of future intelligence officers in the format of blended learning by means of the information and educational environment is proposed. The experience of conducting military intelligence acquired by the intelligence units of the armies of NATO member countries and the Armed Forces of Ukraine during the de-occupation of the territories of sovereign Ukraine captured by Russian-terrorist forces is considered as part of the blended learning. Standards of individual and collective training of future intelligence officers of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and NATO are applied.

The article deals with the formation of a specialist in the hotel and restaurant business at the "bachelor" level, which takes place in accordance with the Law of Ukraine "On Higher Education" (2014) and other regulatory acts. The standard of higher education for bachelors is approved by the Order of the Ministry of Education and Science №. 384 of March 4, 2020. The law emphasizes the importance of professional mobility, which allows for training and internships in other institutions. In 2024, a new industry standard was approved for the specialties "Hotel management" and "Hotel and restaurant business". A survey of 43 students of the Institute of Health, Sports and Tourism showed that 100% consider the training of specialists in higher educational institutions necessary. The problem of training future specialists requires improvement of the educational system, refinement of plans and development of new materials in accordance with modern requirements. Specialists in the hotel and restaurant business must possess personal, professional, general, social (soft-skills), digital skills, as well as basic and professional competencies. Key competencies include social, psychological and environmental aspects that contribute to the development of the individual for the benefit of society. The rapid development of innovative technologies in the restaurant industry makes it difficult for students to familiarize themselves with new programs. Graduates must know modern forms of customer service and be ready to work with various equipment. To connect theory with practice, it is worth using computer programs adapted to the specifics of the industry. The active use of video materials in education helps to make classes visual and accessible. Research shows that video content is better digested, which is important due to the limited production practices in hotels and restaurants. Modern education is constantly improving, integrating various fields of knowledge into professional activity. A specialist in the hotel and restaurant business cannot be considered qualified without knowledge of information and communication technologies, the ability to work on the Internet, communication in a foreign language, economic calculations and knowledge of foreign cultures. The integration of professional, economic, cultural and humanitarian knowledge is necessary for the formation of professional mobility of bachelors. One of the approaches is integrative. Key words: pedagogical conditions, hotel and restaurant business, professional mobility, international standards, professional culture.

Published: October 2024

Objectives: The onset of common mental disorders (CMDs) is most prevalent among youth; thus, mental health management is crucial. We examined differences in risk and risk factor determinants regarding CMDs prevalence among youth in rural and urban Indonesia.Methods: This cross-sectional study utilized data from the 2018 Indonesia National Health Survey. The population comprised 122,114 respondents, aged 15 to 24 years, who had completed the 20-item Self-Report Questionnaire along with providing demographic and health behavior data. Chi-square testing and logistic regression were employed for analysis.Results: The CMDs risk was higher among urban than rural youth. Risk factors impacting both populations included being female, having a lower education level, consuming fewer than 7 portions of vegetables weekly, smoking, and drinking alcohol (p<0.05). Consuming under 7 portions of fruit weekly and being in the highest or lowest wealth quintile were significant risk factors only in urban youth, while unemployment and divorce were significant only among rural respondents (p<0.05). Marriage was protective against CMDs among rural participants.Conclusion: Being male, possessing a college degree, consuming at least 7 portions of vegetables weekly, not smoking, and not consuming alcohol were associated with reduced CMDs risk in urban and rural youth. Among rural youth, marriage and employment were linked to decreased risk, whereas divorce displayed the opposite relationship. In urban populations, consuming at least 7 portions of fruit weekly and belonging to neither the highest nor the lowest economic quintile were protective factors. Management strategies for CMDs in young people must address these considerations.

Authors: Kim Myo-Gyeong , Choi Sookja
Published: October 2024

Objectives: Social activities are important and influential factors for healthy aging. However, limited information is available regarding the associations of the type and intensity of social participation with health and well-being. This study aimed to investigate how various types of social activities are associated with several dimensions of health outcomes.Methods: This cross-sectional study utilized data from the Seventh Korean Longitudinal Study of Aging, which included 5,526 adults aged 60 years and older. Multivariate linear regression analysis was employed to analyze the associations of social activities with depression, self-rated health, and life satisfaction. Additionally, subgroup analyses by sex and age were performed.Results: Among the participants, 73.5% reported involvement in at least 1 of the 4 types of social engagement. After adjustment for all covariates, individuals who participated in any social activity reported better self-rated health and higher life satisfaction compared to those who did not participate. However, the intensity of engagement in different social activities had varying impacts on subjective health outcomes. An increased level of participation was associated with a lower rate of depression and improved self-rated health. However, no significant differences were observed in the relationship between the intensity of participation in activities (with the exception of alumni societies or family councils) and life satisfaction.Conclusion: This study suggests that to improve their health, older adults in the Republic of Korea should not only engage in social activities but also do so actively and regularly.

Authors: Minadzi Vincent Mensah , Nkrumah Kwame
Published: October 2024

This study employed a qualitative approach to examine tertiary students’ perspectives on leveraging Social Studies in the fight against corruption in Ghana. A purposive sampling technique was used to select 21 students from a distance training institution. Some of the variables investigated were causes of corruption and the extent to which students perceived Social Studies as a potential force to combat corruption. The semi-structured interview guide was used to collect data from research participants while thematic analysis was adopted. Data from the study revealed that corruption in Ghana is caused by factors such as weak institutions, greed, poverty-related issues and cultural practices. The results also indicated that Social Studies could significantly help curb corruption. Beside Social Studies, other measures including strengthening institutions, meting out severe punishment to culprits and moral education can also reduce corruption. It was, therefore, recommended that the Ministry of Education through the Ghana Education Service should retool the Social Studies subject, and make it compulsory at all levels of education since it has the potential to reduce corruption.

Published: October 2024

The article improves the traditional collaborative filtering algorithm, integrates it with the content-based recommendation algorithm, proposes the recommendation algorithm based on the mixture of collaborative filtering and content, and serves as the operation logic for designing the intelligent recommendation system of educational content for Civics class. Model variables are determined using structural equation modeling and relevant hypotheses are presented to construct a model of factors that influence student acceptance of the Civics Intelligent Recommendation System, followed by empirical analysis. The mean values of expectation performance, effort performance, social influence, convenience conditions, self-efficacy, perceived pleasantness, and willingness to use are 3.48, 2.70, 3.61, 2.36, 3.77, 3.84, and 3.73, respectively. Students’ use of the Civic Intelligent Recommendation System is greatly influenced by their perception of pleasantness and self-efficacy. The questionnaire has good reliability and validity in general. The initial model has valid hypotheses H1, H2, H6, H7, H8, H9, H10, and H11. In the analysis of variance, there were significant differences between genders only in performance expectations (0.000) and perceived pleasantness (0.016). Significant differences existed across grades in terms of performance expectations (0.018) and social influence (0.000). The measurement dimension of willingness to use had a moderating effect across majors. Hypotheses H12 and H13 are partially valid, but H14 is valid.
Exploring the Informatization Inheritance Pathway of Chinese Language and Literature in the Age of Artificial Intelligence
Authors: Zhang Xingli
Published: October 2024

The Chinese language and literature are the treasures of Chinese culture, but as a cultural content with threshold, its inheritance and development are facing more and more severe tests in the era of artificial intelligence nowadays. The study analyzes the current difficulties in the inheritance and development of Chinese language and literature, as well as the challenges to literary creation posed by today’s booming generative artificial intelligence. Based on this, a multi-objective regression model combining multiple categories of relevant information is constructed to analyze the factors influencing the inheritance of Chinese language and literature informationization. Based on the conclusions of the regression analysis, proposals with feasible strategies for the digitization of Chinese language and literature are presented. There is a similar gender ratio among the respondents (51.57%, 48.43%). The age group is mainly concentrated in 19-40 years old, and the proportion of this age group is 50.12%. College and bachelor’s degrees and above accounted for 84.66% of educational attainment, respectively. The number of company employees is the largest, and their monthly income is mostly in the range of (500,10000). In Chinese language and literature informatization inheritance, the cumulative variance contribution rate of the four male factors, namely, social factors, own factors, government factors, and market factors, is 71.589%, which explains a total of 71.589% of the total variables. Chinese language and literature informational heritage = 0.235*social factors + 0.158*self factors + 0.284*government factors. The self-factor, government, and social factors have a significant effect on the inheritance of information technology.
The Role of Artificial Intelligence in Facilitating Real-Time Language Translation to Complement ESL Education
Authors: Zhang Yuan
Published: October 2024

Real-time English translation systems incorporating speech recognition have a wide range of application scenarios due to the need for further language translation support for second language learners in ESL programs. The traditional Transformer model is further improved by this study using the end-to-end speech recognition model for performance enhancement considerations when performing real-time language translation tasks. The study examines the degree to which the real-time language translation system enhances the learning effect of students in ESL courses. It is found that the Transformer model based on the attention mechanism has obvious performance advantages in a large corpus, and the improved Transformer model containing the transcription network module, prediction network module, and cointegration network module has stronger performance in recognizing English speech. In the case study based on five students, the average recognition time of the translation system under the improved Transformer model is 1.2295 seconds, which is 0.8132 seconds faster than that of the traditional Transformer model, proving that it has a better real-time English translation performance. In a controlled experiment of ESL course learning within a school, the average translation score of the students in the experimental group is 90.45±2.91, which is better than the average translation score of the students in the control group, and there is a significant difference in the translation scores between the experimental group and the control group (P<0.001).

Objective: Analyze the economic and financial viability of implementing a motorcycle parts store in the municipality of Santa Izabel do Pará.
 
Theoretical Framework: Brazil is one of the most entrepreneurial countries in the world, and the activities of small and medium-sized entrepreneurs contribute to the country's economic and social development. However, many businesses end up closing down early on. The success of a new business depends on the development of an adequate plan, which will allow the entrepreneur to evaluate the different factors that make up the venture before even starting it. The business plan is a tool that allows the entrepreneur to organize and plan their ideas to achieve the success of their business.
 
Method: This work was carried out as bibliographical research and a case study, to be applied, of an exploratory nature with a qualitative and quantitative approach, with the carrying out of an unstructured interview with an entrepreneur in the motorcycle parts sector.
 
Results and Discussion: The results of the financial indicators show a favorable scenario for the implementation of the business, with a NPV value of R$ 460,979.24, over a five-year cash flow, an internal rate of return of 153% per year and an estimated return on investment period of 8 months.
 
Research Implications: To carry out a business venture, it is necessary to dedicate many hours of work, in addition to a considerable financial investment. And the financial plan allows the entrepreneur to translate into numbers how viable the implementation of the business is.
 
Originality/Value: Although all financial indicators indicate the viability of the business, after the implementation of the enterprise it will be possible to improve the different sectors of the company and adjust the negative points during the activities, such as, for example, carrying out a satisfaction survey with customers who are buying in the store, aligning negotiations with suppliers in the best way and offering new products.

Introduction. Atrial fibrillation (AF) and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) are common in the population and share common risk factors. The prevalence of OSA in AF is established, but the incidence of AF in patients with OSA is not studied.

Purpose. To study the incidence of atrial fibrillation and atrial remodeling in patients with varying severity of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome.

Materials and methods. Retrospective analysis of 216 medical records of patients hospitalized in a therapeutic hospital in whom screening respiratory monitoring revealed OSA.

Results. Atrial fibrillation was diagnosed in 62/216 patients (28,7 %) with OSA. AF was more often observed in patients with severe OSA – in 27/76 (35,5 %) compared to those examined with a mild degree – 16/78 (20,5 %) (p=0,043). Permanent AF was more common in severe OSA compared to mild OSA (48,2 % and 10,5 %; p<0,01). The left atrial volume index (LAVI) in patients with paroxysmal AF in combination with severe OSA is greater than in patients with AF and mild and moderate OSA (58,4±11,3; 40,8±8,1 and 41,9±7,7; p<0,01). The right atrium volume index (RAVI) in patients with paroxysmal AF in combination with severe OSA is greater than in patients with AF and mild and moderate OSA (42,8±11,0; 30,2±2,2 and 32,7±8,4; p<0,05).

Conclusion. Atrial fibrillation in patients with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome is more common than in the general population, and the combination of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation with severe sleep disordered breathing characterized by more pronounced atrial remodeling than when arrhythmia is combined with mild to moderate sleep apnea.

Authors: Likhodkin V. A. , Partsernyak A. S.
Published: October 2024

Introduction. Orthostatic hypotension (OH) is a common problem in elderly people, characterized by a pathological decrease in blood pressure (BP) upon moving to an upright position and leading to weakness, dizziness, and syncope.

Aim. To present a clinical case of OH in an elderly patient and discuss the features of diagnosis and treatment of OH in his patient category.

Materials and methods. A clinical case of a 76-year-old patient with a history of cancer who was diagnosed with OH is described. A comprehensive examination was performed, including a passive orthostatic test (tilt table test).

Results. During the orthostatic test, a decrease in systolic BP by 18 mmHg upon verticalization and impaired baroreflex sensitivity were revealed. Based on the discussion of the clinical case and a literature review, the features of management of elderly patients with OH were considered, including the need for an individual approach taking into account comorbidity, functional status, and the risk of adverse effects of therapy. Recommendations for non-pharmacological methods of OH correction and careful selection of medications when drug treatment is necessary are given. The importance of educating patients and their relatives about measures to prevent OH and associated complications is emphasized.

Conclusion. Timely diagnosis and correction of OH in elderly patients are essential for preventing falls, injuries, and improving quality of life. Management of patients with OH requires a comprehensive approach, taking into account individual characteristics, and should include both non-pharmacological methods and rational pharmacotherapy.

Pesatnya pertumbuhan penduduk dan pembangunan masif berdampak pada alih fungsi lahan, yang mengganggu keseimbangan ekosistem. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk memetakan distribusi Indeks Kekritisan Lingungan (ECI) di Kota Magelang selama periode 2019-2023. Pengolahan data dilakukan menggunakan citra satelit Landsat 8 OLI/TIRS dan algoritma ECI. Klasifikasi ECI dibagi menjadi tiga kelas: Rendah, Sedang, dan Tinggi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan fluktuasi dalam luas wilayah yang mengalami kekritisan lingkungan. Kelas rendah mengalami penurunan luas, sementara kelas tinggi menunjukkan peningkatan.  Kecamatan Magelang Selatan menjadi wilayah dengan luas kelas rendah terluas, mencapai 284,08 ha sepanjang tahun. Kelas sedang tertinggi terjadi di Kecamatan Magelang Utara, mencapai 265,18 ha pada tahun 2022. Sementara itu, kelas tinggi ECI mencapai 272,68 ha di Kecamatan Magelang Utara pada tahun 2023. Temuan menunjukkan tren kenaikan sebaran ECI di Kota Magelang selama periode 2019-2023. Sebaran vegetasi dan suhu permukaan juga berpengaruh terhadap sebaran ECI. Kelas ECI tinggi ditemukan di area dengan minim vegetasi dan suhu permukaan yang tinggi. Peningkatan tutupan hijau di Kota Magelang merupakan solusi penting untuk mengurangi suhu permukaan, terutama dalam menghadapi urbanisasi yang pesat.

Narzissmus und Machtmissbrauch in der Psychotherapie
Authors: Wirth Hans-Jügen
Published: October 2024

Wie in allen helfenden Beziehungen spielt auch in der Therapeut-Patient-Beziehung die ungleiche Verteilung von Macht eine wichtige Rolle. Für einen gelungenen therapeutischen Prozess ist der verantwortliche Umgang mit Macht eine zentrale Bedingung. Missbraucht der Therapeut seine Macht, kommt es zwangsläufig zum Scheitern des therapeutischen Prozesses, weil sich der Patient abgelehnt, unverstanden und erniedrigt fühlt und/oder weil er einer Retraumatisierung ausgesetzt ist, auch wenn er diese selbst noch nicht bewusst wahrnehmen kann. Narzisstisch gestörte Menschen streben nach Macht, weil sie damit ihr mangelhaftes Selbstwertgefühl kompensieren wollen. Umgekehrt nährt die Möglichkeit, Macht auszuüben, Größen- und Allmachtsphantasien. Macht wirkt wie eine Droge: Die Selbstzweifel verfliegen, das Selbstbewusstsein steigt. Machtphantasien dienen häufig der Überwindung unerträglicher Ohnmachtsgefühle: So empfinden narzisstisch gestörte Patienten häufig ein Gefühl der Macht, wenn sie mit ihrem selbstdestruktiven Agieren den Therapeuten ohnmächtig machen. Gehen Narzissmus, Macht und Aggression eine enge Verbindung ein, kommt es zu destruktiven und selbstdestruktiven Entwicklungen. Liebespartner, aber auch andere Interaktionspartner, beispielsweise Therapeut und Patient, verzahnen sich häufig in einem Macht-Ohnmachts-Kampf, der psychodynamisch als unbewusste narzisstische Kollusion (J. Willi) beschrieben werden kann. Die Macht wirkt wie eine institutionalisierte Abwehr, die den pathologischen Narzissmus verstärkt. In diesem Beitrag werden die Bedingungen für Machtmissbrauch in der Therapie untersucht. Dies geschieht mit Hilfe von Horst-Eberhard Richters psychoanalytischer Rollentheorie und Jürg Willis Kollusions-Konzept. Neben dem sexuellen Missbrauch durch Therapeuten, der in letzter Zeit offener thematisiert werden kann als früher, spielt der narzisstische Missbrauch eine wichtige Rolle. Bei Therapeuten, die sich als Gurus in Szene setzen, liegt der Verdacht eines narzisstischen Missbrauchs ihrer Macht nahe. Abschließend werden die Bedingungen (beispielsweise in der Ausbildungssituation) diskutiert, die Machtmissbrauch durch Therapeuten begünstigen bzw. präventiv vermeiden helfen.
