El Childhood Austism Spectrum Test-CAST (Scott et al., 2012a) es una prueba de screening del síndrome de Asperger o trastorno del espectro del autismo de grado 1 (TEA1). Se busca analizarla para precisar diferentes dimensiones en su contenido. para ello, se aplicó el CAST a 254 pacientes de nuestra Unidad de Neuropediatría, de 5 a 16 años, afectos de: TEA1 (n=17); trastorno de la comunicación social (n=43); trastorno de aprendizaje procedimental (n=60); trastorno por déficit de atención (n=44); discapacidad intelectual (n=30) y discapacidad intelectual y epilepsia (n=60). Los resultados con el uso tradicional del CAST en la muestra clínica se obtienen 47.1% y 33.75% de falsos negativos y positivos, respectivamente. Se realiza un análisis factorial de los 31 ítems del cuestionario. Con una buena adecuación de los datos (KMO=0,65 y MSA=0.47-0.88) se obtienen 7 factores, que explican el 63% de la varianza total. Se comprueba la fiabilidad y la validez. El análisis discriminante indica que esta nueva corrección e interpretación permite clasificar correctamente al 86.7% de nuestra casuística con o sin dificultades en el uso social del lenguaje. Se detallan las dimensiones alteradas con más frecuencia en cada grupo clínico. Este análisis pormenorizado del CAST aporta información relevante en el diagnóstico diferencial de trastornos del neurodesarrollo.

The article is devoted to the research of the public administration reform for the implementation of the state policy of Social Protection of the Region's Population and to the definition of conceptual approaches to improving the management of Social Protection of the Region's Population in Ukraine on the basis of social responsibility. Based on the main provisions of regulations governing the implementation of state policy of social protection in Ukraine, the analysis of recent studies and publications it has been found that in the condition of market turbulence and economic crisis, a rational architecture of social protection is of paramount importance. The necessity of using foreign experience in the process of improving and reforming the social protection system of Ukraine is substantiated. It is proved that since the basis for building an efficient economy is based on human resources, it is necessary to develop the labor market by supporting the development of both large and small and medium enterprises. The efforts to build a model that would meet the conditions of a socially oriented economy and the effective implementation of the government's "Concept for the implementation of state policy on social protection and protection of children's rights" is an important step in improving the mechanism of social protection. The new model of governance in this area should provide a combination of centralization and decentralization of powers for social protection and protection of children's rights in order to create and develop a full living environment for citizens and meet their social protection needs, which is important in financial decentralization. At the same time, the modern model of social protection management should be based on the recognition of business structures, public sector bodies, or business as an integral subject element, the role of which is determined by the introduction and implementation of social responsibility, charity, philanthropy and more. Prospects for further research are to identify effective mechanisms for open surveys of business and society in the context of defining "common values" in order to develop proposals for the formation of regional and state social protection programs and ways to implement them.

Published: October 2021

The purpose of this article is to formulate the main direction of improvement of data about receivables generated in information control subsystems of trading companies that supply traditional energy resources (natural gas and electricity) to non-household consumers, in terms of forming a full cash flow management system in strict connection with the terms of contracts. The article systematically considers the problem of inadequate control over the payments for the consumed energy resources by non- household clients of domestic trading energy companies. The law aspects governing the contractual relations of the partners during the supply of energy resources are established. The typical conditions of payments for the consumed energy resources and ways of their adequate reflection in information subsystems of trading companies are defined. It is assumed that in order to solve the applied task, the information subsystems of accounting and control of trading companies must operate with the following information, which will be provided to the management system to make informed management decisions: a) general payment terms of each non- household counterparty; b) the current schedule of payment of each counterparty in connection with the terms of the signed contract; c) binding payment terms to the month of delivery (M); the month preceding the month of delivery (M - 1) and the month following the month of delivery (M + 1); d) dynamic change of the payment schedule according to additional agreements signed by the partners. As a result of research of the specified problem in all important aspects, practical recommendations on display in information subsystems of trading companies of the information on the schedule of payments for the consumed energy resources with a reference to a month of delivery are developed. Therefore, specific solutions are proposed for the algorithmization of procedures for controlling the timeliness of payments to counterparties and the formation on this basis of the necessary information for the management system of overdue debt. Further research in researched direction should focus on improving the final documents on the control of payment discipline of counterparties and management reporting on the timeliness of counterparties' payments for energy consumed.

Authors:   Kyiv National University of Trade and Economics, Sarkisian Larysa
Published: October 2021

Increased trade and economic cooperation between countries includes inter-state agreements on trade facilitation and the promotion of a wide range of cooperation. In the face of current global challenges, cooperation among countries is taking, inter alia, forms of integration processes, significantly transforming the established system of foreign economic relations and including in the agenda issues that are outside the traditional economic discourse. The environmental dimension of economic policy has become one of the cornerstones in determining conformity with the best international practices of trade policy and its incorporation into the rules of economic spaces. The inclusion of Ukraine in the European Single Economic Area under the Association Agreement and the introduction of the European Green Deal require a review of the environmental aspects of trade policy. Addressing this issue demands, inter alia, the development of incentives for green export flows in the context of integration processes. The aim of the article is to define the determinative the role of environmental factors in the formulation of policies to promote green exports in the context of European integration. The formation of economic systems based on the principles of sustainable development has generated a list of risks and challenges that have influenced national governments and the global community to rethink traditional frameworks and incentives, transforming structural and sectoral policies and programmes. In the face of increasing environmental concerns and their impact on the quality of future generations life, the implementation of the European Green Deal could potentially serve as a model for emulation and implementation in the partner countries of the European Union, including Ukraine through close socio-economic and political inter-state relations. One of the biggest challenges for the national economy is the timely and adaptive introduction of appropriate long-term economic policies that will increase the competitiveness of green goods and services in the European market. Further research should focus on the development of enabling measures and tools to support the technological upgrading of environmental exporters and the removal of barriers to increase their presence in new markets.
The Development of Small Lending in the Naddnieper Ukraine in the Second Half of the 19th - Early 20th Century
Authors:   Central Ukrainian National Technical University, Orlyk Mykhailo
Published: October 2021

The aim of the article is to consider the peculiarities of the organization of small loan institutions and to investigate the mechanism of lending by loan-saving partnership and loan association operating in the Naddnieper Ukraine in the second half of the XIX - early XX centuries. It was analyzed the scientific heritage of the economic thought's representatives in the studied period. Both general scientific and special methods of scientific research were used to solve the tasks that were set as the purpose of the research. System and structural approaches, analysis, method of scientific abstraction, comparison, synthesis, and analysis were used during writing the article. The article analyzes the evolutionary development of small lending institutions, as well as establishes their role in the credit system of Dnieper Ukraine. The establishment of small loan institutions on the shared responsibility basis was a highly effective way to unite the Ukrainian peasantry for finding the necessary money to buy land and meet agricultural needs. The main premise of creation such credit societies was the absence of the banking system at the time of the introduction of Emancipation Reform of Alexander II. The only state bank (Peasants' Land Bank) that could serve the peasantry was founded with a great delay - in 1882, while the urgent need to credit peasants arose during the agrarian reform of 1861. Joint-stock banks, for its part, were not able to develop small peasant loans due to organizational difficulties and problems with allotment of land’s valuation, and so on. Local authorities provided important impetus for increasing the organizational activity of the peasantry in the field of small credit in the early stages, but the small loan institutions, only after the implementation of the required legislative framework, begin to play an important role in the credit services market in Naddnieper Ukraine. As a result of the study two types of small credit institutions: loan-saving partnership and loan association, it was proved that they had the characteristics of cooperatives. It is proved that the main characteristic feature of loan-saving partnership was the formation of ownership capital based on share contributions, which strengthened the mutual responsibility of each member of the partnership and increased interest in the profitable activities of the partnership. The results of this study can be used in teaching courses related to economic theory and the history of economic thought. And it can form the basis for studying the prospects for further agrarian reforms aimed at supporting small agricultural entrepreneurship.

The work Shajara-yi turk va mugūl is well known to scientists as the text of the manuscript. Its translations have been being published numerously in European, Asian countries, and in Russia since the second quarter of the 18th century. Translations by J. J. P. Desmaisons and G. S. Sablukov into French and Russian published in 1874 and 1906 are still recognized by scientists to a certain extent acceptable for critical use. However, it should be emphasized that in the text of these two publications, there are some errors and semantic distortions of the source’s text. In this regard, the article provides a commented translation of the seventh chapter of Abū al-Gāzī khan’s work under the title “Mention of the reign of Jochi Khan, the eldest son of Genghis Khan, and his descendants in Desht-i Kipchāk”. The comparative-critical analysis of the information of the Shajara-yi turk va mugūl with the data of the works of Rashīd ad-Dīn, Mu’īn al-Dīn Natanzī, Mirza Ulūgbek, Fasih Ahmad al-Khawāfī made it possible to reveal the similarities and differences in the account of the historical events described by the authors. Abū alGāzī khan, using extant sources, supplemented the history of the rulers of the Golden Horde with individual facts; the Khiva work contains information missing from other authors.
Janasozdik: codifying an inclusive Kazakh slang
Authors:   Harvard University, Eisenberg L.
Published: October 2021

This article performs an interdisciplinary analysis of the contemporary issues of the Kazakh language, a Turkic language whose history extends to the ancient Turkic era. There are many factors affecting language development, among them socio-cultural, political, and economic ones. Today, however, social networks are of great importance as a medium of communication – as well as, of course, of language development and change. This paper seeks to illuminate the greater significance of the janasozdik Instagram page in its quest to both codify and create a body of Kazakh slang that reflects the bilingual reality of most of the country’s citizens. Rather than casting blame on those who mix Russian and Kazakh (and perhaps English) within a single Kazakh utterance, janasozdik encourages its followers – who are also its primary contributors – to do so. In this way, the page challenges notions of Kazakh linguistic purity and encourages greater participation in processes of Kazakhization, which have historically marginalized Russophones. Notably, I introduce the concepts of translanguaging and heteroglossia at the end of the article in order to posit that janasozdik occupies an important space in a bilingual country, i.e. providing vocabulary that its citizens do not yet have, but need both of the languages present in their daily lives to describe. In this work, I will take a decidedly multidisciplinary approach to my analysis of janasozdik: rather than examining it as a purely sociological or linguistic phenomenon, I will place the Instagram page in the context of Kazakhstan’s political situation, linguo-historical development, and uniquely Kazakh cultural context. Hopefully, this diverse analysis will shed greater light than a traditional single-subject analysis, allowing for a more nuanced discussion of janasozdik’s influence on Kazakhstan, Kazakhs, and Kazakh-speaking society.
