Closing the Gap? Gender and the Global Compacts for Migration and Refugees
Authors: Hennebry Jenna L. , Petrozziello Allison
Published: November 2024

Migrant women's organizations, UN Women, and civil society advocacy networks have mobilized to call for greater gender-responsiveness in migration governance. The development of the Global Compacts on Migration and Refugees presented an important opportunity to continue enhancing the international framework for protecting the rights of women and men on the move. This article asks: How has gender been understood/invoked during proceedings leading up to their adoption? In what ways is it incorporated in the resulting compacts and their operationalization? What are the gains and missed opportunities for gender-responsiveness? Drawing on data gathered through participant observation in the global compact on migration preparatory meetings and member state negotiations in Geneva and New York, and policy analysis of the drafts of both compacts, this paper aims to determine the extent to which the compacts, and the plans to operationalize them, serve to widen or close the gender gap.

Plant growth promoting rhizobacter (PGPR) mengandung Rhizobacter yang dapat memfiksasi nitrogen bebas yang berada di alam, nitrogen tersebut diubah menjadi amonia yang selanjutnya disalurkan ke tanaman. Tujuan dari penelitian ini untuk mengetahui efek pemberian pgpr dari dua sumber bioaktivator yang berbeda terhadap intensitas serangan kutu daun pada tanaman cabai. Rancangan percobaan yang digunakan adalah Rancangan Acak Lengkap (RAL) yang terdiri dari dua faktor adalah konsentrasi PGPR akar bambu dan akar putri malu yaitu 0%, 25%, 50%, 75%, dan 100%. Masing-masing perlakuan diulang sebanyak 3 kali dengan satuan percobaan masing-masing terdiri dari 4 tanaman cabai keriting varietas ™ Thunder 99. Pengaplikasian dilakukan seminggu sekali selama masa vegetatif. Pengamatan mulai dilakukan pada umur 1 MST dan seminggu sekali dengan variabel pengamatan yang diamati berupa jenis kutu daun dan intensitas serangan kutu daun pada setiap tanaman selama masa vegetatif. Hasil yang diperoleh pemberian PGPR akar bambu dan akar putri malu kurang efektif karena kurang dapat menekan intensitas serangan kutu daun pada tanaman cabai. Intensitas serangan kutu daun masih tidak berbeda jauh dibandingkan dengan perlakuan kontrol. Tingkat intensitas serangan kutu daun berbanding lurus dengan populasi kutu daun. PGPR yang relatif dapat menekan intensitas serangan kutu daun adalah perlakuan akar bambu dengan konsentrasi 75%. Bioaktivator PGPR yang lebih baik berasal dari akar bambu daripada akar putri malu.

Published: November 2024

The purpose of this article is to combine economic, sociological, philosophical and psychological knowledge to substantiate the metaverse, determine its main contradictions and ways to solve them, characterize the current stage of development of the metaverse and forms of alienation in it. In this article, the metaverse is considered as a space of convenience, increasing speed, flexibility, and certainty in satisfying consumer desires through the provision of services. The starting point of the work is the study of the metaverse as a space of processive consumption in the conditions of paternalistic influence of technology. To substantiate the emergence of the metaverse as a space for meeting needs on the non-market, paternalistic principles of marketing influence, the logical-historical methodology for studying the development of economic systems was used. On this basis, the paper shows the cornerstone subjective contradiction of the metaverse, which unfolds along the line of interaction of its main actors – agents and users, which consists in the clash of temporal motivations of operational activity in the metaverse. The article describes the special mechanisms of information management and marketing strategies of the metaverse; tendencies of leveling of evolutionarily capable components of human sociality are revealed; the processes of formation of artificial subjectivity and neutralization of human subjectivity are shown. On the basis of J. Baudrillard’s methodological approaches, the following forms of alienation in the metaverse have been identified: 1) fetishization of the consumer item, putting it on a pedestal, proclamation of the secondariness of everything else inherent in the human essence, but not related to consumption; 2) retreat into the virtual world of consumption; 3) rejection of subjectivity to maximize the satisfaction of needs in the world of consumption. As a result of the research, the positive effects of the existence of the metaverse and its risks have been identified.

The aim of the article is to define the role of artificial intelligence technologies for the implementation of prudential supervision and the features of its implementation in the context of external shocks. To achieve the aim of the article, the following tasks are solved: to determine the essence of artificial intelligence on the basis of systematization of scientific approaches to its interpretation; consider the principle of operation of this digital technology; specify the stages of the evolution of artificial intelligence; determine the potential impact of the use of this technology on the prudential supervision of credit institutions; to outline the main features of the implementation of such supervision in the context of external shocks. The article considers the essence and features of the digital economy, which covers all spheres of public life and significantly affects the activities of credit institutions. Digitalization of the economy involves the active use of digital technologies in production, consumption, exchange and management, which stimulates the adaptation of traditional sectors of the economy, including the financial sector. The digital economy places new demands on credit institutions and regulators, which must adapt to the fast-paced conditions of digital transformation, while maintaining the stability of the financial system and protecting the interests of consumers. The digitalization of credit institutions provides them with significant benefits, including increased efficiency of operational processes, improved customer service, the ability to analyze big data, and make accurate decisions. The development of innovative products and services becomes an important component, allowing to remain competitive in the market. There is also a need for regulators to adapt approaches to prudential supervision by integrating digital tools such as artificial intelligence, machine learning, and big data analysis to improve efficiency of monitoring of financial activities. The article focuses on risk-oriented approaches to prudential supervision, which are based on data analysis and risk forecasting, as well as the need for international cooperation to harmonize regulatory standards. The growth of cyber threats is causing increased requirements for cybersecurity and data protection. The results of the study highlight the importance of the proactive role of regulators in maintaining the stability of the financial system in the face of external shocks.

The aim of the article is to build a model of value management, evaluation and analysis of the process of simulation of the value of enterprise, based on different approaches and methods, taking into account important factors and aspects that are directly related to the identification of the most significant advantages and disadvantages. Olson and Evans models were used to determine the value of the enterprise. Olson’s model has significant advantages: when calculating value, this model minimizes the disadvantages of the profit approach and defines the value of an enterprise as the current value of its net assets and discounted income flow. In the Evans model and the discounted money flow model, there are a number of advantages over other valuation methods. In accordance with the selected assessment methods, the set and amount of necessary information is determined. Information can be drawn from several sources, such as: the evaluated company, the stock market, various statistical information, marketing research, etc. Business valuation requires standardized data reflecting the real market and economic position of the company. The article uses the available statistical reporting of enterprise, which allowed to determine the value of enterprise and its limit of variation. The authors implemented the necessary calculation procedures provided for by the selected methods of business valuation: building the selected models for assessing the value of the business (Olson, Evans, discounted money flow model) and conducting experiments on changes in the coefficients used in the models. The calculation of the value of enterprise using the Olson model on the basis of the Evans model and discounted money flow is carried out. Several experiments have been conducted to determine the size of the enterprise value, depending on the coefficients used in the models. Analysis of the results obtained allows us to say that the enterprise with its further development will not cease to exist and will develop at a fairly rapid pace.

Investment development of industries is an important factor in their overall development, therefore the issue of classification and ordering of companies in the oil and gas industry by the level of investment attractiveness becomes particularly relevant. The aim of the article is the construction and practical implementation of an algorithm for the classification and ordering of companies in the oil and gas industry according to the level of investment attractiveness, the application of which will increase the efficiency of decisions regarding the formation of appropriate investment portfolios. The proposed algorithm includes the following basic steps: formation of information base of research; selection and implementation of the classification algorithm; arrangement of investment objects according to the level of investment attractiveness; investment portfolio formation. It is proposed to consistently use hierarchical and agglomerative classification algorithms. Hierarchical algorithms make it possible to perform a preliminary analysis of the system of objects in a multidimensional space, to estimate the density of their location and to put forward a preliminary hypothesis regarding the possible number of homogeneous groups. To obtain the final division of objects into a given number of clusters, it is suggested to use iterative algorithms. Depending on the contentual interpretation of the received clusters, one is chosen whose objects can potentially be included in the investment portfolio. Depending on the investor specific preferences, the selected stocks either form an independent portfolio, or are added as part of an already existing one. If the structure of the portfolio has already been determined, the number of stocks is determined depending on the known share of funds allocated to them. If only the list of assets that the portfolio should contain is formed, the task of finding the optimal portfolio structure is additionally solved using nonlinear optimization algorithms. The algorithm is implemented for the initial set of twenty-two stocks of companies that are included in the energy sector of the SP500 stock index. The initial dataset contains information about basic indicators of liquidity, solvency, profitability and market value of the mentioned companies. A division of the initial set of multidimensional objects into homogeneous groups was obtained, a contentual analysis of the obtained clusters was carried out, based on the results of which recommendations were made regarding the stocks inclusion into the investment portfolio.

The article examines the peculiarities of the State stimulation of the development of sectors for the production of synthetic liquid fuel from coal in the group of producing countries using CTL (Coal to Liquids) technologies. The article covers the historical period of formation and development of industrial production of synthetic liquid fuel from the 1930s to the present. It is determined that the industrial production of synthetic fuel in the world, in different historical periods, was localized in different countries and had different trends of formation and development that were determined by national regulatory policy. The main producers of synthetic liquid fuel in the studied period were the following countries: Germany from 1938 to 1945, the Republic of South Africa from 1945, China from 1947. It is revealed that the trigger for the development of synthetic fuel production in Germany and South Africa was the geopolitical situation, and in China the objective deficit of its own oil production. The driver of the development of synthetic liquid fuel in all countries was the State initiative implemented in the regulatory policy. Despite the fact that the goals of the regulatory policy in all the mentioned countries were similar, the approaches and means of implementation had a purely national specificity. The study of the essence and results of the implementation of the regulatory policy confirms its efficiency. Particular attention is paid to the experience of South Africa, where the production of synthetic liquid fuel went through the entire life cycle - from development to technological reconstruction. The experience of the People's Republic of China where the development of synthetic liquid production is integrated with the general economic development of the country is also interesting. The generalization and analysis of the world experience of the State regulation of the development of the septic liquid fuel sector made it possible to form the main directions of recommendations regarding the State stimulation of the development of the relevant industry sector in Ukraine.

The growing role of services in the economy of modern countries requires a detailed analysis of their exports as one of the key factors in the development of national economies. Especially relevant is the study of exports of services in the context of globalization and increased competition in international markets. The EU is one of Ukraine’s key trading partners, so a comparative analysis of services exports helps to determine how effectively Ukraine adapts to European standards and which sectors of the economy have the greatest potential for growth. The aim of the article is to compare the level of development of exports of services of the EU countries and Ukraine and identify the key factors contributing to its growth. The article analyzes the export of key services of both the EU countries and Ukraine using a taxonomic approach. Taxonomic indicators for the classification of countries by the level of development of exports of services have been calculated, which allowed to allocate three main groups of countries. The place of Ukraine among the EU countries is determined and the key factors influencing its position in this sphere are identified. On the basis of the results obtained, recommendations for strengthening Ukraine’s position in the international market of exports of services are formulated. Further direction of development of the study is envisaged in an in-depth analysis of specific service sectors that have the greatest potential for export in Ukraine, such as IT, financial services and outsourcing, as well as a comparative analysis of the policies of countries with an average level of exports of services and the determination of which practices can be adapted for Ukraine for further integration of Ukraine into European and global services markets.

Today, Ukraine has a critically low level of fuel security, which is associated with a drop in oil production, a decline in oil refining and limited opportunities to import oil and motor fuel. The aim of the study is to develop a methodical approach to assessing the fuel security of Ukraine and the countries of the European space, which involves the calculation of local indicators of fuel security by components and levels. It is proposed to assess the fuel security of Ukraine and European countries according to four security components: accessibility, availability, acceptability, affordability. A methodical approach to identifying problems in ensuring fuel security is proposed, which, unlike the existing ones, is based on a system of matrices for positioning Ukraine and the countries of the European space in the plane of coordinates: «Accessibility of crude hydrocarbons for indigenous production, in particular year – Accessibility of crude hydrocarbons for oil refining»; «Availability of crude hydrocarbons for oil refining – Availability of motor fuel for final consumption»; «Acceptability of crude oil as a feedstock for refining – Acceptability of motor fuel in oil refining feedstock»; «Affordability of crude hydrocarbons imports – Affordability of motor fuel imports». The analysis of the components and levels of fuel security of Ukraine and the countries of the European space made it possible to determine that the highest level of fuel security in 2021 had the following countries: Norway, Great Britain, Lithuania, Spain; the lowest level of fuel security had Montenegro, Slovenia, Latvia, Estonia. In 2021, Ukraine ranked 24th among 29 European countries in terms of fuel security that was 35%. The decrease in the level of fuel security of Ukraine was influenced by: the destruction of production facilities as result of russian military aggression, a reduction in production, and limited opportunities to import crude hydrocarbons. The key problems in ensuring Ukraine’s fuel security include: low level of accessibility of crude hydrocarbons for indigenous production and crude hydrocarbons for oil refining; low availability of crude hydrocarbons for oil refining and low availability of motor fuel for final consumption. To ensure fuel security, Ukraine needs to increase the production of crude hydrocarbons, increase the volume of oil refining for final consumption, and develop the production of synthetic motor fuel from coal.
АРТ-ТЕРАПЕВТИЧНІ ЗАСОБИ ВІДНОВЛЕННЯ ВНУТРІШНІХ РЕСУРСІВ СТУДЕНТІВ В УМОВАХ ВІЙНИ
Authors: Володарська Наталія Дмитрівна
Published: November 2024

Мета статті – презентація підбору та адаптація арт-терапевтичних методів активізації відновлення внутрішніх ресурсів студентів як здоров’язберігаючого чинника в умовах війни. Методи. Методика визначення копінг-стратегій особистості (С. Лазаруса), методи арт-терапії мистецтвом (обговорення власних історій), малюнки «Міст», метод «Мотузка», «Презентація себе», сюжетно-рольова гра з елементами психодрами, які відтворюються у вигляді життєво правдивих імпровізованих ситуацій, що хвилюють студентів. Результати. З’ясовано, що впровадження арт-терпевтичних методів в навчальний процес підготовки майбутніх соціальних працівників в умовах війни має певні труднощі: актуалізації власних потреб, зміни усталених стратегій психологічного захисту (копінг-стратегій як внутрішніх ресурсів). Під час застосування арт-терапевтичних засобів відбувається стабілізація емоційних станів студентів, уміння управляти внутрішніми ресурсами (як інструментів організації емоційних станів в напружених, складних ситуаціях війни), налаштування особистості на розвиток емоційної компетенції. Були отримані найбільш значущі показники копінг-стратегій студентів по категоріям: планування вирішення проблеми; пошук соціальної підтримки та позитивна оцінка. Такі копінг-стратегії характерні при середньому і низькому рівні внутрішньої ресурсності в сучасних умовах навчання під час війни (загроза бомбардування, переривання навчання внаслідок зникнення зв’язку, світла та інше). Висновки. З’ясовано, що, використовуючи символи, значення яких особистість може і не усвідомлювати, арт-терапевтичні засоби допомагають перенести внутрішній конфлікт в усвідомлюваний. Програвання проблем в такій формі, як хоче і фантазує сама особистість, дає можливість знайти альтернативу їх вирішення. Для майбутніх соціальних працівників важливі вміння застосовувати арт-терапевтичні засоби розкриття власних потреб, актуалізації переживань особистості для професійної підготовки в роботі з підопічними в умовах війни.
ВІЙНА ЯК ОБ’ЄКТ СОЦІАЛЬНО-ПСИХОЛОГІЧНИХ ДОСЛІДЖЕНЬ: МЕТОДОЛОГІЧНИЙ РАКУРС
Authors: Кочубейник Ольга Миколаївна
Published: November 2024

Актуальність аналізу методологічних проблем соціально-психологічних досліджень, котрі проводяться під час війни, обумовлена появою широкого спектру публікацій, що висвітлюють різноманітні аспекти змін у суспільстві. Мета статті полягає в ідентифікації особливостей досліджень, що виникають при його проведенні у період збройного конфлікту, та в оцінюванні загроз валідностей, які походять внаслідок існування цих особливостей. Методи дослідження. Завдяки узагальненню, інтерпретації та систематизації досліджень, проведених в умовах війни, виокремлено низку чинників, які перешкоджають досягненню «методологічної чистоти», спричинюють загрози процедурам отримання й обробки емпіричних даних, повноті та адекватності інтерпретації встановлених закономірностей, коректності генералізацій та екстраполяцій. Результати. Автор показує, що етичні вимоги позначуються не лише на комунікації між дослідником й респондентом, але чинять вплив на повноту отриманих даних, надійність і валідність вимірювань. Політизація усіх сфер життя, будучи специфічною версією «фону», призводить до появи особливої форми соціальної бажаності, а саме: політичної бажаності, яка в умовах війни межує зі способами збереження свободи або життя. Образ суспільства, що закладається в ідею дослідження, регулює правомірність генералізацій та екстраполяцій, позаяк війна докорінним чином змінює і формальну, і неформальну структури суспільства, задає нову ієрархію його ідентичностей, а також створює нові лінії роз’єднання та з’єднання соціальної тканини. Окремо автор аналізує проблему релевантності «довоєнного» образу суспільства та ієрархії його ідентичностей щодо завдань, які постають перед дослідником в умовах війни. Висновок. Проаналізувавши виклики, що виникають під час вивчення суспільств у стані збройного конфлікту, можна підсумувати: зміни в дослідницькому процесі не просто пов’язані зі зростанням інтенсивності (чи іншої специфічності) соціальних процесів, вони потребують особливих методичних підходів, оскільки унеможливлюють дотримання більшості критеріїв науковості у соціальних науках. Останнє буде справедливим як для кількісних, так і для якісних досліджень, оскільки предметом для тих і тих однаково буде виявлятися небезпечний досвід війни, що походить від нетривкої суб’єктивності й кардинальним чином змінює статус упередженості в досліджуваній площині.
ТЕОРЕТИЧНИЙ АНАЛІЗ ПРОБЛЕМИ САМОАКТУАЛІЗАЦІЇ ОСОБИСТОСТІ У ПСИХОЛОГІЧНИХ НАУКОВИХ ПІДХОДАХ
Authors: Задорожна Анастасія Сергіївна
Published: November 2024

Мета. Метою статті є створення теоретичної моделі самоактуалізації особистості на основі контент-аналізу наукових концепцій, що вивчають та досліджують проблему самоактуалізації особистості в психологічній науці. Методи. Основними методами дослідження, використання яких передбачає створення теоретичної моделі наукових поглядів на самоактуалізацію особистості є теоретичний аналіз, синтез, узагальнення, порівняння, систематизація, контент-аналіз. Результати. Відповідно до результатів ретроспективного аналізу проблеми самоактуалізації особистості, серед класичних психологічних підходів особливого значення поняття самоактуалізації набуває у дослідженнях гуманістичного підходу. В даних психологічних концепціях джерело самоактуалізації визначається активністю мотиваційно-вольового компонента, актуальних потреб, інтересів та цінностей особистості. Можна стверджувати, що проблема самоактуалізації особистості в українській психологічній школі сьогодні висвітлена більш широко, з урахуванням викликів сучасного життя. Виявлено, що самоактуалізація особистості значною мірою впливає на професійну сферу діяльності, оскільки зумовлює формування професійної мотивації, сприяє цілепокладанню й професійному розвитку, формуванню само- та професійної ідентичності. Що більше, відповідно до сучасних концепцій особистісний потенціал може бути реалізований не тільки в приватній та професійній сфері, а й мати можливість бути проявленим у творчості, соціальній взаємодії, саморозвитку та самовдосконаленні. Самоактуалізація особистості також слугує елементом протидії стресовим факторам впливу на особистість, виступаючи суттєвим психологічним підґрунтям для формування емоційної стійкості. Висновки. Самоактуалізація особистості є багатокомпонентним явищем, що охоплює властивості психологічної природи особистості, її психофізіологічні та психосоціальні детермінанти. Виявлено, що ефективність та можливість людини успішно реалізувати власний потенціал зумовлюють онтогенетичні особливості та досвід особистості, її мотиваційний, афективний та ціннісні компоненти тощо. Інтегративне дослідження основних психологічних концепцій самоактуалізації особистості дозволяє здійснити ретроспективний погляд на зародження самоактуалізації особистості як актуальної психологічної проблеми, а отже, надалі розширити її зміст у сьогоденні.
ПСИХОЛОГІЧНІ ОСОБЛИВОСТІ МОТИВАЦІЇ ПОКУПОК ПРЕДМЕТІВ РОЗКОШІ МОЛОДДЮ З ОБМЕЖЕНИМИ КУПІВЕЛЬНИМИ МОЖЛИВОСТЯМИ

Мета. Стаття зосереджена на аналізі психологічних механізмів, які спонукають молодих людей до імпульсивного придбання предметів розкоші попри фінансові обмеження. На основі теоретичного аналізу сучасних західних джерел з проблеми автори узагальнюють соціальні, культурні та особистісні фактори таких рішень. Методи. Аналіз базується на теоретичному огляді літератури, зокрема, на теоретичному аналізі та синтезі дослідженнь у галузі психології споживання, соціально-порівняльних теоріях та теоріях особистісної ідентифікації. Результати. У дослідженні визначено, що основними чинниками імпульсивних покупок є прагнення до соціального визнання, вплив медіа, низька самооцінка та потреба в негайному задоволенні. Молоді люди часто вдаються до купівлі предметів розкоші для тимчасового підвищення свого соціального статусу або щоб компенсувати внутрішнє незадоволення. Висновки. Теоретичний аналіз та синтез різних теоретичних підходів та концепцій показав, що імпульсивні покупки предметів розкоші є складно структурованим явищем, яке включає як зовнішні (соціальні, культурні), так і внутрішні (психологічні, емоційні) мотиви. Водночас, соціальні фактори, такі як статус, престиж та брендова ідентичність, є ключовими детермінантами таких покупок. Перспективи розвитку даної проблематики полягають у інтеграції соціальних, культурних і психологічних підходів для розуміння та ефективного вирішення проблем імпульсивних покупок сучасною молоддю, а подальші дослідження мають зосередитися на впливі глобалізації. Особлива увага також повинна бути приділена аспектам ментального здоров’я, адже низька самооцінка та почуття внутрішнього незадоволення є критичними факторами, що сприяють імпульсивним покупкам.

The need to automate employment offers to qualify job searchers has gain attentions. For an automated recommendation systems to be used more frequently, a better user-friendly filtering techniques are required. This paper designs an automated process, referred to as “the job recommender”, which focuses on user-centric design and personalization for recommending and matching applicants with appropriate jobs. We use the bottom-up approach that uses dataset based on filtering algorithms to predict and make recommendations for job seekers. The algorithm helps the recruiters to produce the list of the résumé that best meets the job descriptions. In this context, the random forest (RF) and support vector machines (SVM) are adopted to train the data. They are supplied personalized information (qualifications, result of aptitude test, age, and work experience) reported on the résumés of individual candidates from the pool of submissions, and the system train data to learn the evolution of job selection by candidates based on these machine learning tools. The algorithm used would help the recruiters to produce the list of the résumé that best meets the job descriptions. The algorithms are designed to recommend personalized items tailored to each user's interests. Under the minimum hardware and software requirements, the job recommender system was implemented in streamlit - a python template, for designing the frontend.

Regulation of the insurance market
Authors: Yuzdepska Angelina , Volkova Valeriya
Published: November 2024

Since the insurance sector is of great importance for economic stability and financial support of citizens and businesses, the issue of regulation of the insurance market remains relevant. Research in this field can focus on various aspects of regulation, such as setting financial soundness standards for insurance companies, consumer protection, risk resolution mechanisms, risks and ensuring market stability. Research may include an analysis of the effectiveness of existing regulatory mechanisms, an assessment of their impact on the development of insurance markets and the ability to ensure the protection of the interests of all stakeholders. Given the rapid changes in business and technology, continuous monitoring and analysis of regulatory approaches is a key challenge to ensure the stability and efficiency of insurance markets. Regulation of the insurance market is necessary to protect consumer rights, ensure market stability and stimulate its development. However, it is important to find a balance between protection and incentives, control and innovation, bureaucracy and efficiency. For this regulation should be transparent, clear, flexible, and fair. It is also important that regulators cooperate with insurance companies, take their opinion into account, and stimulate innovation. In Ukraine, the insurance market regulation system is constantly developing and improving. However, there are certain problems that need to be solved. It is necessary to reduce bureaucracy, increase the effectiveness of supervision, and stimulate the development of new types of insurance. Effective regulation of the insurance market is a guarantee of its stable development, protection of consumer rights, and growth of trust in insurance companies. The insurance market needs proper regulation to ensure stability, protect the interests of policyholders, and ensure financial security. Regulators should ensure a balance between stimulating innovation in insurance and protecting the rights and interests of consumers. Regulators should actively monitor the financial stability of insurance companies and market risks to prevent possible crisis situations.

The article examines the importance of public organizations in the conditions of the war in Ukraine, which demonstrated their readiness to restore the country, the ability to involve the country's population in the process. The general principles of strengthening the unity of Ukrainians by public organizations have been determined. It is noted that the development of public organizations in Ukraine depends on the political situation, the economic state of the country, public activity, and the legislative framework. It is substantiated that the involvement of civil society in the design and implementation of transformational reforms has a proven history of success in Ukraine, in particular, in the conditions of war, public organizations are actively involved in supporting the population affected by the war, including children, veterans, internally displaced persons and refugees. It is noted that in Ukraine there is a significant number of public organizations operating in various areas, including civil rights, gender equality, ecology, social development, culture, education and many others. It was established that public organizations, acting as mediators between the Ukrainian government and international donors, are an entity that ensures the effective use of international aid. The dynamics of the number of registered public organizations in Ukraine were analyzed. It was determined that their number was increased during 2014–2023. Public organizations are actively involved in the reform of state institutions, contribute to the fight against corruption, monitor the activities of government bodies and participate in decision-making at various levels. The existence of problems in the development of public organizations has been confirmed. First, the lack of stability in the financial support of their activities makes it difficult to plan long-term projects and ensure stable work. Secondly, the activities of public organizations are hampered by complicated administrative procedures and bureaucracy. Thirdly, in connection with the departure abroad or the acquisition of the status of an internally displaced person by already existing members of public organizations, their further participation in the work becomes difficult and there is a need for training of new members of the public organization. Fourth, insufficient experience in receiving international aid (for example, grants) and establishing cooperation with businesses. It is noted that the work of public organizations can be improved thanks to the use of innovative technologies and digital tools. The advantages and disadvantages of digitalization of public organization activities are determined. It was concluded that the activity of public organizations is a prerequisite for public well-being, and the digitalization of their activity will contribute to the development and integration into the European and international space.

Published: November 2024

This article studies the perceptual quality evaluation method of humanistic images based on the characteristics of human vision. First, this study obtained the disparity map of the human visual cultural image and used the edge map and saliency map to correct the weight of the disparity map. The weighted disparity map was then integrated into a perceptible score using a Minkowski fused deep neural network. A multi-scale method was employed to process the image to obtain the visual effect score. Taking Polytechnic University of Lausanne (EPFL) as an example, an experimental study was conducted on the three dimensional visual quality assessment method proposed in this article. The test results with the EPFL library show that the target score obtained by this method has good consistency and monotonicity with the subjective score of the EPFL library. The article's results verify the effectiveness of the visual effects and aesthetics evaluation method proposed in this article.

Published: November 2024

A hiperglicemia é uma ocorrência comum no ambiente hospitalar e está associada a desfechos negativos. A Diabetes Mellitus tem alta prevalência entre os pacientes internados, e o manejo da hiperglicemia no ambiente hospitalar destes pacientes difere da conduta ambulatorial. O uso de escala móvel como terapia isolada em pacientes com hiperglicemia persistente é contraindicado; no entanto, muitos hospitais utilizam este esquema devido a sua facilidade. O trabalho teve como objetivos descrever e agrupar os diferentes esquemas de insulina utilizados no hospital pelos pacientes diabéticos, traçar perfil destes pacientes, identificar episódios de hiperglicemia e de hipoglicemia e avaliar quantitativamente a presença de dados de glicemia capilar no prontuário eletrônico. Foi realizada uma pesquisa observacional retrospectiva em um hospital universitário que coletou dados de quatro meses e selecionou todos os pacientes diabéticos internados nas clínicas neurológica, infectológica, médica e longa permanência. Alguns dos resultados obtidos mostraram que: a comorbidade mais prevalente, além do diabetes, foi hipertensão arterial; o motivo de internamento mais frequente foi acidente vascular cerebral; o principal esquema prescrito inicialmente para os pacientes foi a escala móvel; a ocorrência de hipoglicemia foi identificada em 13 pacientes, mais da metade dos pacientes apresentaram valores hiperglicêmicos, sendo que 33% apresentaram hiperglicemia descompensada (glicemia >400 mg/dL) e a média de exames realizados e evoluídos no sistema eletrônico em comparação com a quantidade prescrita de hemoglicotestes foi de 84,4%. Este estudo contribuiu para o melhor entendimento de como é realizado o tratamento com insulina de pacientes diabéticos no hospital.
