Published: June 2024

The purpose of this writing is to explain the legal position and role of a Notary in the preparation and approval of land sale and purchase agreements, as required by the legislation. This research focuses on the changes that have occurred in the authority of a Notary, as well as the rights and obligations of the parties involved in making a Sale and Purchase Agreement (PPJB) in accordance with Article 43 paragraph (1) of the Job Creation Law. The research method used is a normative legal approach by analyzing legal regulations and philosophical principles, as well as a prescriptive analysis method. The results of this research confirm that the authority of a Notary in making PPJB is a direct authority granted by the law to a Notary as a public official. This research uses the theory of contract to analyze the legal relationship between the Notary and the parties involved in the contract, while the theory of authority is used to analyze the scope of authority of the Notary in making the contract. The aim of this research is to provide a comprehensive understanding of the dynamics of Notary authority in the context of the Job Creation Law.

Rats are widely used in the study of embryological development of the central nervous system and its congenital disorders. Therefore, tissue fixation is very important in obtaining a good picture of the central nervous system, especially in newborn rats. This study aims to determine the difference in fixation using a solution of 10% neutral buffered formalin, 4% paraformaldehyde, and Bouin solution in the brain tissue of newborn rats. This experimental study used a post-test only controlled-group design with 18 newborn rats aged zero day. After randomization, the pups were grouped into 3 treatment groups, namely: fixation with 10% neutral buffered formalin solution (P1, n = 6), and fixation with 4% paraformaldehyde solution (P2, n = 6), and fixation with Bouin solution (P3, n = 6). Assessment using Hematoxylin Eosin staining, and analyzed by blinding based on the histology of the cerebral tissue (cell nucleus staining, cytoplasmic staining, staining clarity, uniformity of staining). Five cerebrum fields were examined. Data analysis used Kruskall Wallis test and post hoc Mann Whitney test using SPSS. The result was a significant difference in the histology of the brain tissue of newborn rats with the fixation of a solution of 10% neutral buffered formalin, 4% paraformaldehyde and Bouin solution (p = 0.001). Brain tissue fixation using 10% neutral buffered formalin solution showed better quality of histological pictures compared to 4% solution of paraformaldehyde solution and Bouin solution (p <0.05).

Evidenciar las prácticas y limitaciones que enfrentan las OSC de base, es relevante para mejorar su funcionamiento. El objetivo de este estudio, fue analizar las distintas áreas de la estructura de las OSC para evaluar su potencial fortalecimiento institucio­nal. La investigación, es del tipo exploratorio descriptivo; se sustentó en la aplicación de un cuestionario a nueve OSC y en un análisis descriptivo de la información. Los resultados mostraron que solo 55.5% de las organizaciones, cuenta con un plan operativo anual bien elaborado. Existe vinculación con gobiernos locales, instituciones de educación y con otras OSC. Se promueve la profesionalización del personal, 77.8% de los integrantes participa en cursos de capacitación y 66.7%, en cursos de especialización. El 66.7% de organiza­ciones, no cuenta con un plan de procuración de fondos o está muy limitado. El 66.6% de las organizaciones, tiene un plan de seguimiento y evaluación, pero desactualizado o se implementa de manera parcial. Se con­cluye que casi la mitad de las OSC, tiene limitaciones con su plan operativo y la mayoría, no cuenta con un plan de procuración de fondos, ni de seguimiento y evaluación. En general, se observa una débil capacidad organizacional, lo que repercute en un limitado fortalecimiento institucional.
Fostering justice and ethical climate in the workplace: Leader–follower value congruence perspectives
Authors: Halbusi Hussam Al , Alshallaqi Mohammad
Published: June 2024

This study focused on the relationships between organizational justice dimensions (distributive, procedural, interpersonal, and informational) and employee ethical behavior through the mediator of ethical climate. We found that in a sample of 271 Iraqi employees, all four justice dimensions
had a positive effect on employee ethical behavior. This impact was mediated by ethical climate, meaning that ethical climate plays a role in how the four justice dimensions affect employee ethical behavior. The impact of the justice dimension types on employee ethical behavior was stronger
when leader–follower value congruence was high, which also increased (moderated) the effect of ethical climate as a mediator. This means that when employees share the same values as their leaders, they are more likely to be influenced by the distributive, procedural, interpersonal, and informational
justice within the workplace. Implications of the findings are discussed.
Associations among fatalism, depression, anxiety, and stress in Chinese college students
Authors: Zhang Ya , Hu Jinsheng
Published: June 2024

We examined the role of locus of control and negative coping in influencing the relationships between fatalism and Chinese college students’ depression, anxiety, and stress. Participants were 525 college students, who completed an online questionnaire. The results showed that
fatalism, locus of control, negative coping, depression, anxiety, and stress were positively correlated with each other. Further, locus of control and negative coping serially mediated the influence of fatalism on depression, anxiety, and stress among college students. Thus, the good mental
health of college students weakens fatalistic beliefs and also changes their locus of control and coping style.

Comparison of Discrete Variable and Continuous Variable Quantum Key Distribution Protocols with Phase Noise in the Thermal-Loss Channel
Authors: Kish Sebastian P. , Gleeson Patrick J. , Walsh Angus , Lam Ping Koy , Assad Syed M.
Published: June 2024

Discrete-variable (DV) quantum key distribution (QKD) based on single-photon detectors and sources have been successfully deployed for long-range secure key distribution. On the other hand, continuous-variable (CV) quantum key distribution (QKD) based on coherent detectors and sources is currently lagging behind in terms of loss and noise tolerance. An important discerning factor between DV-QKD and CV-QKD is the effect of phase noise, which is known to be more relevant in CV-QKD. In this article, we investigate the effect of phase noise on DV-QKD and CV-QKD protocols, including the six-state protocol and squeezed-state protocol, in a thermal-loss channel but with the assumed availability of perfect sources and detectors. We find that in the low phase noise regime but high thermal noise regime, CV-QKD can tolerate more loss compared to DV-QKD. We also compare the secret key rate as an additional metric for the performance of QKD. Requirements for this quantity to be high vastly extend the regions at which CV-QKD performs better than DV-QKD. Our analysis addresses the questions of how phase noise affects DV-QKD and CV-QKD and why the former has historically performed better in a thermal-loss channel.

The aims of this study is to compare the meanings and relation of words syntactically and semantically. By analyzing the difference between Mongolian and adverbs and its corresponding Chinese expressions, this study will reveal the similarities and differences between the two languages on their syntactic and semantic meaning. Those of Mongolian adverbs correspond not only Chinese adverbs with negation meaning of ‘从来’, ‘简直’ but also a variety of other Chinese categories. In syntetical aspects, Mongolian and Chinese adverbs show similarities that those adverbs usually modify the adjectives, some verbs and adverbs. Finally, its need to make a comparative study between Mongolian and Chinese translation as well as adverbs with negation meaning in more detail for various aspects.
Conception of translation unit
Authors: G Eldev-Ochir
Published: June 2024

An important concept in translation theory is the translation unit. As a translator, having this knowledge is essential to fully understand and translate the source. Understanding the source means determining which part of the source corresponds to which vocabulary and syntax of the target language. Translation units can be words, conjunctions, independent structures, sentences, and source. In this regard, scientists have expressed their own opinion, and this concept needs to be taken seriously.
Translation issues on Mongolian-Korean formal documents
Authors: S Enkhchimeg
Published: June 2024

In globally, the demand for official documents is increasing, as more and more people are seeking both long-term and temporary immigration. There has been a lack of research on the translation of official documents between Mongolia and Korea, and intensive research on this matter will provide methods and techniques for translating official documents, and thus the quality of translation organizations and translators will improve. In official documents, the source material is monotonous and standardized, does not show personal expressions, and takes into account the high use of specific terms and advanced vocabulary. The usage of the "CAT tools" could be an advanced solution for saving time and money to translate those official documents.

Objective: Community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) is one of the leading causes of mortality in the pediatric population. It often leads to pediatric hospitalization, with children under 1-year-old being the most affected and usually requiring management in the intensive care unit. Recent molecular studies indicate that viruses are the most common etiology. The aim of our study was to characterize the pediatric population with severe CAP in a high complexity center in Cali, Colombia, describing demographics, etiologic factors, clinical evolution and outcomes of patients. Method: We conducted retrospective observational study in a private hospital of high-complexity. Ninety-three patients aged between 1 month and 18 years old with the diagnosis of severe CAP admitted to the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) during a 5-year period (2015-2020) were included. Results: In our population there was no significant gender difference, our median age was 10 months (IQ 3-31), 77% presented respiratory distress and 48% required invasive mechanical ventilation. The most commonly isolated microorganism was Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) (n=36), followed by Rhinovirus/Enterovirus complex in 41% (n=21), and Metapneumovirus 12% (n=6). Viral pneumonia was the most common in our patients (44%, n = 41), followed by viral-bacterial coinfection (13.9%, n=13). Seven fatal cases were reported. Conclusions: Our study provides epidemiologic evidence of microorganisms that cause severe CAP in the pediatric population in a cohort of pediatric patients prior to Covid-19 pandemic.

The purpose of this paper is to provide answers to a key question in crisis situations related to tourism, namely, how to manage crisis communication due to natural disasters. For this purpose, the more recent case of the eruption of the Cumbre Vieja volcano was chosen. The authors investigated how the tourist board of La Palma managed crisis communication. Considering the sensitivity of tourism, it is important to skilfully manage crisis communication and thereby reduce the harmful consequences of crisis. Within the case study of the Cumbre Vieja volcano eruption, the content of posts of the tourist board of La Palma on Twitter during the crisis period was analysed. The research was conducted on a sample of 307 posts in Spanish and English language found on the official Twitter profile of the La Palma tourist board. The research results showed that the tourist board of La Palma intensified its communication with Twitter users in the acute phase of the volcano eruption crisis, and their key messages during the communication of the crisis were targeted and simple. Additionally, the research has shown the importance of having a defined crisis communication strategy in advance to effectively respond to unforeseen situations. The analysis shows that social networking sites have become indispensable channels for communication and building trust during crisis. This study highlights a few important aspects of managing crisis communication in tourism and contributes to understanding the significance of communication in preserving the reputation of a tourist destination during the crisis.
Komunikacijski potencijal tipografije kod reklamnih poruka u tisku
Authors: Lozo Ivana
Published: June 2024

This paper deals with typography in advertising messages or advertising discourse, within which it can be considered a semiotic resource with its own meaning potential. In the first part of the paper, the characteristics, possibilities and limitations of message transmission in this type of advertising message are considered, then the specifics of the relationship between the visual and verbal part of the message, and the specifics of typography within such an advertising format. The second part of the work is dedicated to the theory and definition of typography, its intrinsic and extrinsic properties, then its functions from an advertising perspective, and the communication and meaning potential it possesses regardless of the text to which it is applied. Typography certainly affects the interpretation and reception of texts, and it can also have its own meaning independent of the semantics of the text, which is proven by reference to a number of relevant works. It is the resource that transmits information supraliminally, since we usually do not perceive fonts on a conscious level, but in the way we perceive background music in movies. Although typography is only one of several components of advertising messages in print, it is a segment that unites the textual and visual part of the message. Considering the advertising practice and the physical experience of the space, intrinsic and extrinsic typographic properties, it is possible to attribute to it certain meanings arising from them.

The identity of a person(ality) and a rational aspect of the weakness of will: Structure and meaning
Authors: Malesevic Novak , Govedarica Milanko
Published: June 2024

The text examines the phenomenon of irrational behavior in the context of the
problem of weakness of will. The first part of the paper is dedicated to the
analysis of a person, that is, the mechanisms which a person accesses in
adoption and analysis of the information available to him, as well as their
application in practice. After determining cognitive, narrative and
identification process in the structure of consciousness, we approach the
analysis and criticism of rationalistic, Socratic thesis about weakness of
will. We argue that it is impossible to determine the problem of weakness of
will axiomatically, whereby we introduce a correlative phrase - relativity
of weakness, triggering an identification process characteristic of every
person individually. The identification process, we further argue, is an
unavoidable initial step when explaining akrastic behavior.
Parmenides’ teaching about being
Authors: Lukic Aleksandar
Published: June 2024

In this paper, we explore Parmenides? teaching about what it is. Thanks,
first of all, to Simplicius?s comments, his poem has been preserved almost
in its entirety. Parmenides believed that he had found the most reliable way
of theorizing about being. In his ???? ??????, Parmenides expounded the
doctrine of one, eternal and immovable being. We will try to show that his
main thought - that it is does not represent an empty tautology, but
something much more, as Heidegger said in his lectures on phenomenology -
the highest metaphysical truth. In this regard, we will also use the
philological-comparative method to point out that the Greek ????, ????? and
the participle derived from it ?? ?? are sufficient in themselves for
intellectual exploration of reality. The verb ???? is useful to Parmenides
in attempt to overcome ????? as human thought and so his concept of being is
grounded in the lexical content of the verb ????, ?????.
Voice and language: On man and animal in the philosophy of Agamben
Authors: Rudic Luka
Published: June 2024

In this paper, we will analyze Agamben?s consideration of the relationship
between the concepts of man and animal. In The Open, Agamben writes most
explicitly on these terms, and he invents the concept of the anthropological
machine that is continuously ?producing? the concept of man by creating
rhetorical distinctions between the concept of the man and concept of what
animal should be. In this paper, we will analyze the functioning of
Agamben?s anthropological machine, but we will also try to point out that
his consideration of the work of the machine is also present in his earlier
works, specifically in his earlier works on the concept of language. The
concept of human language turns out to be an essential product of the
machine?s work through the well-known definition of the man: the man is a
speaking animal, an animal that has logos.
Theories of emotions and cognitive behavioral therapy
Authors: Stojanovic Igor
Published: June 2024

In this paper, I analyze two influential theories of emotion: theory of basic
emotions (TBE) and psychological constructionism (PC). I offer arguments
that aim to show that there are pressures to modify both of these theories
so that they move closer to each other to such a degree that the differences
between them seem more a matter of emphasis than essence. As an illustration
of usefulness of the modified theories, I offer an interpretation of the
phenomena of rumination and emotional processing that are recognized as
relevant in cognitive behavioral therapy. These two phenomena get a
different treatment in this modality: the former is discouraged while the
latter is encouraged. This might seem problematic if, as might seem
plausible, they are actually the same phenomenon conceptualized in two
different ways due to the influence of two different traditions in
psychotherapy: cognitive behavioral therapy and psychodymanic approach,
respectively. However, I use my modified TBE/PC to model rumination and
emotional processing in such a way that explains them while justifying both
the notion that they are substantially different and the motivation for
engaging with them differently in the context of mental health treatment.
Kashmiri aesthetics
Authors: Pajin Dusan
Published: June 2024

Indian thinkers from the Kashmiri shaivist tradition, who lived between the
9th and llth c. in Kashmir, created a complex art theory. Their ideas were
similar to the Byzantine, and the Western Middle-age tradition, but in many
ways are particular, especially because they had a theory of taste. Certain
type of rasa (aesthetic taste) fills a man with particular mood. But this
emotional attitude that the art creates in man, is different the one in
everyday life - it has a purifying (suddha) and unworldly (alaukika) effect.
Therefore is the aesthetic pleasure (bhoga, or asvada), different then the
sensual or intellectual pleasure. It is conncected with a specific thrill
(camatkara), wonder (vismaya).
Hydrogen production by thermal cracking of natural gas - test facility
Authors: Stevanovic Dragan , Schimmel Judith , Philippi Tarek , Kutter Christian , Jankes Goran , Adzic Vuk
Published: June 2024

Hydrogen is an energy carrier which makes a decisive contribution for future energy transition. Over 90% of H2 is produced currently from primary fossil fuels with high CO2 emissions. Methane cracking is intensively developing, as the storage or using of solid carbon is easier and more attractive than carbon capture and storage. The process without catalysts is simpler, but requires higher temperatures. Main objective of the test was to show the viability for industrial applications. The test facility consists of two columns (for reversible operation) filled with pebble-bed and a connecting horizontal part. The cracking process takes place at the highest temperature zone, which is the upper pebble-bed and the connecting pipe. The required reaction energy is supplied by adding oxygen to burn small amount of H2. Sensible heat of product gas is stored in the pebble-bed and cold gas goes out. The product gas is further cooled and the condensate flows in a drain vessel. The capacity of the facility was 2-4 m3STP per hour of CH4, with corresponding residence time between 0.5-2 seconds. To compare the quality of those results, the H2 yield was evaluated. The highest yields have been achieved at temperature above 1500?C, with a maximum value of 94.9%, what is considerably better than results achieved in other test facilities for cracking using catalysts (yield 78% at 1175?C). The comparison shows important advantages of high temperature processes without catalyst. The cracking process at 1500?C is a simpler and more effective way to reach industrialization of that technology.

Authors: Ramic Lejla , Eljsan Sandira , Alic Izet , Sabanovic Meliha
Published: June 2024

The paper examines the possibilities of applying solar cooling in Bosnia and Herzegovina, since the potential of solar energy is great. The goal is to reduce primary energy consumption, as well as to reduce emissions of harmful gases, primarily CO2. The feasibility of a single-stage H2O/LiBr absorption cooling device powered by heat from solar collectors for a building in Tuzla was investigated, as well as a comparison with the existing compression cooling device. A solar cooling system was selected for the calculated heat load values. A mathematical model for the absorption single-stage cooling cycle has been developed that includes mass and energy balance equations as well as heat exchange equations. The absorption system is designed for the maximum cooling load of the specified facility.
The effect of moisture content on the Hardgrove grindability index of coal from the Kolubara basin
Authors: Obradovic Marko , Karlicic Nikola , Todorovic Dusan , Radic Dejan , Jovovic Aleksandar
Published: June 2024

In order to obtain data on the effect of moisture content on the grindability of coals, experimental research was conducted. The experiment included six samples of coal from the Kolubara basin. The samples were selected based on experimentally obtained values of their Hardgrove grindability index (HGI), in order to cover the entire range of experimental HGI values. In addition to determining the HGI, proximate, and petrographic analyses were performed on all samples. Lignites are naturally tough, soft, and greasy when in a moist state. By reducing the moisture content, lignites become more brittle. For this reason, Hardgrove grindability index values have different values depending on the moisture content at which they are determined. The HGI has a non-linear dependence on the moisture content of the coal. All curves have two inflection points, one minimum and one maximum value of Hardgrove grindability index in the tested range. The minimum values of HGI are in the range of 15-22% of the mass fraction of total moisture in coal, while the maximum values of HGI are for a total moisture content of 5-13%. In the case of high moisture content in coal, the obtained high values of HGI may not reflect the true grindability of the coal. These values could be misleading and not necessarily indicative of the coal inherent characteristics. Instead, they could be a result of the imperfections in the Hardgrove method used to determine the grindability index of coal with high moisture content.

Icing on key aircraft parts is one of the major hidden dangers of flight safety in winter. To eliminate the hidden danger caused by icing, deicing liquid jet deicing is the most common deicing operation method in most airports in our country. The deicing liquid jet is sprayed on the surface of the fuselage to melt the ice and snow of the aircraft skin, and then the film is applied on the surface of the fuselage, which can inhibit the accumulation of ice in the fuselage for a certain period. Deicing fluid is a typical non-Newtonian fluid, and its film distribution characteristics are affected by various factors. This paper studies the film distribution characteristics of Type II deicing fluid impacting aluminum plates and relies on commercial code FLUENT simulation software to build a droplet wall impact model to analyze the data of droplet spreading and rebound under different droplet diameters and different initial velocities. The high speed camera is used for comparative analysis and verification. The coupling effect mechanism of droplet physical property parameters on droplet wall impact behavior and spreading film behavior was revealed, which provided theoretical guidance for airport deicing operation parameter regulation and accurate determination of deicing fluid retention time. Under the same initial conditions, the larger the initial velocity of the droplet, the larger the kinetic energy of the droplet, the larger the maximum dimensionless diameter of the droplet, and the larger the length of the spreading film. The larger the drop-let diameter, the larger the droplet falling inertia, the larger the maximum dimensionless diameter, the smaller the thickness, and the longer the spreading film.
Numerical investigation of natural gas feasibility in a direct injection heavy-duty diesel engine
Authors: Hadjab Riad , Kadja Mahfoud
Published: June 2024

In the present study, numerical simulations were performed on a direct injection heavy-duty Diesel engine. Methane, which is the predominant component in natural gas, was chosen as the fuel. The simulations involved five exhaust gas recirculation ratios (0%, 10%, 20%, 25%, and 30%) to examine their effect on engine performance, NOx, and soot emissions. The numerical results were compared with existing experimental measurements of a typical Diesel engine without exhaust gas recirculation. A comparison of the numerical results of the four cases of exhaust gas recirculation ratios reveals that the 30% exhaust gas recirculation ratio achieves a significant reduction in NOx emissions without increasing soot emissions. Consequently, the engine meets the authorized emission standards without excessive performance degradation.
Effect of mixed refrigerant composition on performance of an auto-cascade refrigeration system using R600a/R1150/R14

A mathematical model based on energy and exergy methods is established to
analyze the performance of an auto-cascade refrigeration system at varying
compositions of the mixed refrigerants, condensation temperature,
evaporation temperature, and vapor quality at the condenser outlet.
Furthermore, grey correlation theory is employed to assess the correlation
degrees between refrigerant mass fractions and system performance, enabling
the identification of the state that has the greatest impact on the output
parameters. It has been concluded that while maintaining a constant mass
fraction of R600a, an increase in the mass fraction of R1150 (state 1) leads
to a higher cooling capacity but a decrease in exergy efficiency. The
performance decreases with the increase of the R600a mass fraction (state 2)
as the R1150 mass fraction is unchanged. When the component of R14 is
constant while the other two components R600a/R1150 vary (state 3), and the
COP exists as the optimal value. The mixture of R600a/R1150/R14 with a mass
fraction of 0.5:0.2:0.3 has better performance at COP of 0.5027 and exergy
efficiency of 29.43 % under a condensation temperature of 30?. Based on the
results of the grey correlation degree, the greatest factor in cooling
capacity is state 1, while the COP and exergy efficiency are primarily
controlled by state 3.

Published: June 2024

The study of a novel two-tier micro-flame combustor for gas turbines involved comprehensive modelling using SolidWorks and ANSYS FLUENT software pack?ages, alongside physical experiments. Analysis of air-flow velocities, pressures, temperatures within the combustion chamber, and NOx emissions led to several key findings. The SolidWorks modelling confirmed stabilized air-flow and uniform pressure distribution, enhancing fuel combustion. Optimal air-flow velocities (15 m/s and 30 m/s) for different operating modes were determined, highlighting the importance of air-flow regulation. The ANSYS FLUENT analysis revealed efficient mixing of the fuel-air mixture through the device?s two tiers. The analysis of NOx emissions confirmed compliance with regulatory standards, up to 15 ppm. These results underscore the efficiency and stability of the combustor, making a signifi?cant contribution the advancement of gas turbines while meeting requirements for efficiency and environmental safety.
Short version of the self-control in communication questionnaire: reliability, validity, factor structure
Authors: Шейнов Виктор Павлович , Девицын Антон Сергеевич
Published: June 2024

Изучение самоконтроля в общении актуально ввиду негативного влияния на общение «вживую» чрезмерного использования смартфонов и социальных сетей. При этом в исследованиях активно используется созданная 40 лет назад М. Снайдером «Шкала самоконтроля в общении». В отношении давно разработанных методик сложилось убеждение, что их нужно перепроверить, поскольку ответы респондентов сегодня могут значительно отличаться от ответов их давних предшественников, на ответах которых много лет назад создавались эти опросники. Актуальна и установка на сокращение опросников, поскольку большие опросники вызывают трудности в сборе материалов и худшее качество получаемых ответов. Цели данного исследования: 1) разработка надежной и валидной сокращенной версии опросника самоконтроля в общении; 2) построение факторной модели самоконтроля в общении. Исходные данные для исследования были собраны посредством онлайн-опроса 1 911 респондентов. В результате проведенного исследования сконструирована состоящая из 8 вопросов короткая версия опросника социального самоконтроля. Короткая версия опросника удовлетворяет основным критериям валидности и надежности и обладает лучшими психометрическими характеристиками, нежели его исходная версия. Построена состоятельная двухфакторная модель самоконтроля в общении.

The study of self-control in communication is relevant due to the negative impact of excessive use of smartphones and social networks on “live” communication. At the same time, research actively uses the “Self-Control in Communication Scale” created 40 years ago by M. Snyder. With regard to longdeveloped methods, there is a belief that they need to be re-tested, since the answers of respondents today may differ significantly from the answers of their long-standing predecessors, on whose answers these questionnaires were created many years ago. The goal of reducing questionnaires is also relevant, since large questionnaires cause difficulties in collecting materials and worse quality of the responses received. The objectives of this study are: 1) to develop a reliable and valid shortened version of the Self-Control in Communication Questionnaire; 2) construction of a factor model of self-control in communication. Baseline data for the study were collected through an online survey of 1,911 respondents. As a result of the study, a short version of the social self-control questionnaire consisting of 8 questions was constructed. The short version of the questionnaire satisfies the basic criteria of validity and reliability and has better psychometric properties than its original version. A consistent two-factor model of self-control in communication has been constructed.

В работе выделены и охарактеризованы пять этапов работы в фокус-группах; описаны зафиксированные факты о применении заданий с поликомпонентными рисунками в образовательном процессе техникума и вуза; поликомпонентные рисунки рассматриваются как способ кодирования учебной информации, стимулирующий работу обоих полушарий головного мозга, позволяющий создать необходимые для выполнения заданий невербализованные образы. Рассматриваемые задания определены как синтез визуальных опор и текстового поля, учитывающий клиповое мышление современного студента, способствующий формированию метапредметных результатов и появлению идей в виде ментальных образов, необходимых для успешного овладения компетенциями в рамках получаемой студентом профессии или специальности.

The article considers the disclosure of the meta-subject essence and significance of tasks with multicomponent drawings in the professional training of students of an educational organization of secondary vocational education based on the results of work in focus groups of students and undergraduates. As a result, the concepts are clarified: “multicomponent drawings”, “tasks with multicomponent drawings”, and also the requirements for tasks with multicomponent drawings and criteria for their classifications are determined. The paper highlights and characterizes 5 stages of work in focus groups; the recorded facts about the use of tasks with multicomponent drawings in the educational process of a technical school and university are described; multicomponent drawings are considered as a way of encoding educational information that stimulates the work of both hemispheres of the brain, allowing you to create non-verbalized images necessary for completing tasks. The tasks under consideration are defined as a synthesis of visual supports and a text field, taking into account the “clip thinking” of a modern student, contributing to the formation of meta-subject results and the emergence of ideas in the form of mental images necessary for successful mastery of competencies within the framework of the profession or specialty received by the student.
