Authors: Asgar Rzayeva Nuriyya , Mammad Sabina Almammadova
Published: April 2024

There are both reasonable and unjustified ideas in the assumptions and theories about the root commonality in languages of different systems. In this work presented to the readers, special attention is paid to the analysis of the right and wrong aspects of those ideas. Because the contradictions themselves are very important to reveal the truth. Later, in order to eliminate the difficulty in understanding the comparison of roots, it was considered appropriate to provide information about the structure and formation of the genetic roots of the Azerbaijani language itself. This work also analyzes the commonality of monosyllabic roots and words with root-formative composition, as well as parallelisms and motivational similarities. In this analysis, the latest sources of linguistics were used and analyzes and comparisons were made. The mutual development of languages is the reflection of interlingual interaction. The cooperation of nations and peoples affects primarily their language. Conversion of the achievements of scientific and technological achievements into the common property of humanity, the mutual development of their cultural values, in the creation and development of mutually beneficial relations between languages as well as in literature.  In the process of its own historical development, the languages have been and continue to be in the process of mutual language interaction.
Personal Bankruptcy Protection and Household Debt
Authors: Severino Felipe , Brown Meta , Chakrabarti Rajashri
Published: April 2024

Increasing personal bankruptcy protection raises consumers’ desire to borrow and lenders’ cost of extending credit; the impact on equilibrium borrowing is ambiguous. Using bankruptcy protection changes between 1999 and 2005 across U.S. states, we find that borrowers respond to greater protection by increasing their unsecured debt. Border county estimates suggest that local economic conditions do not drive these results. Borrowers pay more for protection through higher interest rates, yet delinquency is unaffected. Remarkably, our results indicate that rising borrower demand outstripped decreasing supply. Increased protections did not reduce the aggregate level of household debt but affected the composition of borrowing.
Course Design Practices Using Open Educational Resources (OER)-Enabled Pedagogy in Language Teacher Education
Authors: Wang Chaoran , Qu Pengtong , Zhu Meina
Published: April 2024

Promoting pre-service teachers’ professional development is challenging because it requires adopting a new teacher identity and building professional skills. This challenge is further complicated when pre-service teachers learn online. In this article, the authors describe two design cases of adopting OER-enabled pedagogy in language teacher education during the COVID-19 lockdown. We argue that OER-enabled pedagogy can provide effective learning opportunities, engage learners, and help pre-service teachers build professional identity. The design cases offer insights into adopting OER-enabled pedagogy in various contexts, which is especially important given the increasing need for quality distance learning during regular and emergency situations.

Published: April 2024

Background: unforeseen events, such as a pandemic crisis, and disasters sometimes spontaneously arise in the healthcare organization. While it is recommended that the management should formulate robust plans in readiness for such crises, there is little evidence on the current preparedness of the strategic human resource management in the crisis preparedness in Saudi Arabia.

Purpose: this research was conducted to analyze the role and preparedness of strategic human resource planning in the crisis management in Saudi Arabia.

Methods: quantitative cross-sectional research was conducted in Saudi Arabia. Data was collected from a sample of 68 participants, who were healthcare workers in different occupations, including doctors, nurses, receptionists, management and risk management. the questionnaire used in data collection was adapted from a previous research study. The analysis of data was then performed using the descriptive statistics of SPSS for evidence-based conclusion.

Results: this study noted that most of the healthcare service providers through the strategic human resource management mostly read the emergency response plan for strategic crises management annually (71%) and 29.41% never read them at all. However, 91% have an emergency response plan crises management, and 60.29% have a summarized version of the risk management. It was also established that 38.23% of the healthcare workers participate in the collective training with the local authorities annually and 79.41% do update their contact details for easy access.

Conclusion: overall, the preparedness of the strategic HRM in healthcare organizations to deal with crisis varies from case to case. Nevertheless, there is a need for improving the healthcare crisis preparedness among the human resource management in Saudi Arabia.

A Study on Legislating a Long-term Fiscal Plan in Response to the Generational Divide
Authors:   Korean Administrative Law Association, Chun Soo Kyung
Published: April 2024

Korea has entered ‘an era of generational divide’, in which the financial conditions of the current and future generations are completely different. Until now, there was no significant difference in financial conditions between generations, so it was not a problem to manage the public finance based on annual budgets or medium-term fiscal plans. However, due to structural changes in new population, economy and technology, the generational divide is greatly expanding, which will completely change the lifestyle, economic environment and financial conditions between the current and future generations. In particular, Korea has the most severe generational divide in the world, and it is expected to become extremely difficult to maintain public finances and welfare in the future. Therefore, it is now necessary to develop a new fiscal management method that responds to generational divide. It is important to effectively operate long-term fiscal projections and legislate long-term fiscal plans, which are necessary to accurately forecast the intergenerational imbalance through long-term fiscal projections and set guidelines for operating medium-term fiscal plans and annual budgets based on them.
In Korea, the National Finance Act stipulates that long-term fiscal projections should be conducted, but it has not been properly operated and does not properly reflect the three variables that cause intergenerational imbalance. Moreover, Korea's National Finance Act has no legal provisions for establishing a long-term fiscal plan. To correct this, it is necessary to effectively implement long-term fiscal projections and long-term fiscal plans. This study presents Australia's intergenerational report as a case in point. To this end, the relevant regulations should be supplemented to the National Finance Act, and specific operational directions should be established in the enforcement decree.
The Current State of Administrative Planning Legislation and Exploration of Legislative Models
Authors:   Korean Administrative Law Association, Cho Jung-Chan , Lee Bo Yeon
Published: April 2024

Administrative planning has evolved into a complex field involving multiple stakeholders, notably in areas such as urban planning. Initially, administrative planning referred to administrative subjects proposing matters that were difficult to specify within the confines of the law, which would then be formulated into a plan on a regular cycle. Presently, administrative plans are incorporated into many laws.
In certain instances, administrative plans encompass tasks handled by multiple administrative entities. In these cases, opinions are harmonized and integrated through consultations or committee deliberations during the administrative plan's formulation process. To establish an administrative plan, a fact-finding survey of the relevant administrative conditions is conducted to ensure alignment with reality. Additionally, the performance of the administrative plan is evaluated, and feedback is provided to inform the establishment of subsequent administrative plans. Multiple administrative plans pertaining to a specific matter often exist, forming hierarchical relationships or exerting mutual influence on one another. Consequently, establishing relationships between these administrative plans becomes necessary.
While urban planning shares some legal characteristics with administrative measures, it can also possess the characteristics of administrative legislation, whereby administrative entities set the direction of administration and conduct operations accordingly. Regarding the nature of administrative legislation, administrative entities are bound by administrative plans, whereas the populace is not legally obligated to adhere to them. However, given the significant impact of administrative plans on the populace, they must be publicly announced upon establishment.
All of these considerations must be reflected in the provisions of laws and regulations; however, different laws prescribe these matters differently. Therefore, a legislative model for administrative plans must be developed and utilized.
Überprüfung der Eigenständigkeit der Verfahrensfehlerhaftigkeit
Authors:   Korean Administrative Law Association, LEE SEUNGHOON
Published: April 2024

Die Frage, ob Verfahrensfehler die Rechtmäßigkeit einer Verwaltungsverfügung beeinflussen, wurde seit langem heftig diskutiert. Diese Frage ergibt sich aus unterschiedlichen Ansichten über die Bedeutung und Funktion des Verwaltungsverfahrens. Ein Standpunkt ist, dass das Verwaltungsverfahren dazu dient, rechtmäßige und gerechtfertigte materielle Entscheidungen zu treffen, und daher der Ansicht ist, dass Verfahrensfehler keine eigenständigen Rechtsfehler darstellen. Andererseits betrachtet ein Standpunkt das ordnungsgemäße Verwaltungsverfahren selbst als Ziel und betrachtet daher Verfahrensfehler als eigenständige Rechtsfehler. Die Rechtsprechung des Obersten Gerichtshofs betrachtet im Allgemeinen Verfahrensfehler als eigenständige Rechtsfehler, zeigt jedoch keine konsistente Haltung, indem sie auch gegenteilige Entscheidungen trifft. Die Ursache hierfür kann in der Befürchtung liegen, dass nutzlose Wiederholungen der Verfahrensschritten oder mangelhafte Gerichtsverhandlung drohen könnten.
Es ist nicht wünschenswert, die Bedeutung und Funktion des Verwaltungsverfahrens in Extremen zu erfassen. Selbst wenn es wichtig ist, den eigenständigen Wert von Verfahrensmängeln zu betonen oder zu leugnen, sollte man nicht in ein Entweder-oder geraten. Verwaltungsverfahren dient, rechtmäßige und gerechte Verwaltungsentscheidungen zu treffen, aber dennoch sollte der eigenständige Wert des Verwaltungsverfahrens respektiert werden. Daher ist ein neuer Ansatz erforderlich, die beide Perspektiven in Einklang bringen kann. Wenn man den Verwaltungsprozess analysiert, kann man ihn in einen Willensbildungsprozess und einen Erklärungsprozess unterteilen, und jedes dieser Rechte wird durch das Recht, am Verwaltungsverfahren teilzunehmen, und das Verteidigungsrecht gewährleistet. Daher ist es vernünftig, die Rechtmäßigkeit einer Maßnahme anhand der Frage zu beurteilen, ob diese Rechte verletzt wurden. Eine solche Struktur kann klarere und rationalere Standards bieten.
Rechtliche Untersuchung des Antrags von Interessenten auf Vorabberatung im Rahmen der aktiven Verwaltung
Authors:   Korean Administrative Law Association, Kang Hyun Ho
Published: April 2024

Dieser Artikel befasst sich mit dem Thema der Beantragung einer vorläufigen Beratung durch interessierte Parteien beim Board of Audit and Inspection. Das vorherige Beratungssystem dient dazu, Verwaltungsschwierigkeiten zu überwinden und den Verwaltungszweck der Durchsetzung des öffentlichen Rechts zu erreichen. Es wird erwartet, dass das vorläufige Beratungssystem zu einer Steigerung des Nützlichkeit des Staates und des Wohlergehens der Bürger führt. Insbesondere kann es die Funktion erfüllen, Gesetze und Institutionen in der Realität kohärent zu korrigieren. Hier wird diskutiert, ob es ggf. möglich sein könnte, daß die Interessenten beim Board of Audit and Inspection einen Antrag der vorherigen Beratung stellen können. Es kann jedoch zu Problemen kommen, wenn interessierten Parteien gestattet wird, eine vorherige Konsultation mit dem Board of Audit and Inspection zu beantragen. Erstens mag es Kritik geben, dass das Board of Audit and Inspection der letzte Entscheidungsträger über Genehmigungen werden wird. Aber die Struktur der Beteiligung des Board of Audit and Inspection an der Verwaltung wird durch unsere Verfassung bestätigt und ist in allen Aspekten der Verwaltung unvermeidlich. Daher kann das Problem dadurch gemildert bzw. überwunden werden, dass Anträge von Interessenten nur in Ausnahmefällen zugelassen werden. Zweitens mag kritisiert werden, dass dadurch die Verfolgung privater Interessen durch die Beteiligten gefördert wird, dies kann jedoch durch eine sorgfältige Prüfung durch die schrittweise Durchführung des Antragsprozesses kompensiert werden. Drittens könnte kritisiert werden, dass die Einbeziehung des Rechnungsprüfungs- und Inspektionsausschusses zu Schwierigkeiten bei der Erfüllung von Verwaltungsaufgaben führt. Da die Einbeziehung des Rechnungsprüfungs- und Inspektionsausschusses jedoch auf außergewöhnliche Umstände beschränkt ist, handelt es sich also eher um eine administrative Unterstützung. Viertens mag es Kritik geben, dass dies zu einer Erweiterung der Organisation des Board of Audit and Inspection führen wird, aber wenn man die Bedeutung der Themen, mit denen sich das Board of Audit and Inspection befassen wird, ist die Erweiterung der Organisation ist kein großes Problem. Um die aktive Verwaltung der öffentlichen Rechtsdurchsetzung als Hauptgrundsatz der Verwaltung zu erleichtern, ist eine Vorrichtung erforderlich, um Verwaltungsschwierigkeiten zu überwinden. In diesem Zusammenhang wird die Möglichkeit, dass interessierte Parteien in einem begrenzten und außergewöhnlichen Umfang dem Board of Audit and Inspection eine vorherige Beratung beantragen können, im Einklang mit dem Geist der Rechtsstaatlichkeit steht.

Published: April 2024

International Organizations support the reinforcement of gender training for professionals to prevent institutional violence suffered by victims due to professional bias. Studying extreme personality traits makes it easier to address this challenge. The purpose of this research is to explore the frequency of the Dark Triad of personality and its relationship with violence against women, in newly admitted university students from disciplinary fields whose professional practice is directly or indirectly related to victim care. A quantitative descriptive correlational methodology based on a survey is used, applying the scale DD12, ASI, RSAS and Microviolence in the couple, with high reliability. 1613 students from the University of Seville participated in the study, selected by stratified random cluster sampling. The results indicate that 5.6% of the students, mostly male, show high scores on Dark Triad traits and orientation towards violence, being more prevalent in scientific-technical degrees, although they are also present in health care and security degrees. Practical implications of the results for the prevention of gender violence are derived from the Equality Units.

Authors: Oksuzyan A. V. , Butolin E. G. , Ishina E. A.
Published: April 2024

Purpose of the study: to compare the features of sialoglycoprotein metabolism in the liver, stomach and small intestine tissues of rats on a fructose-enriched diet under immobilization stress and without it.
Materials and Methods. Experiments were performed on 64 adult white males mongrel rats weighing 180-230 g for 90 days in vivarium conditions. The experimental animals were fed a special fructose-enriched diet, and immobilization stress was reproduced according to the method of Tigranyan R.A. (1985) for 35 days. Statistical processing of the data obtained during the experiments was carried out using nonparametric methods of evaluation, using Microsoft Excel; "Statistica 12.0" by Statsoft.
Results and Discussion.During the study, an experimental model of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease was formed, which was confirmed by histologic studies. In addition, an increase in transaminases and dyslipidemia was detected in both study series. In carbohydrate metabolism in all observation groups, an increase in insulin and C-peptide on the background of hyperglycemia was revealed. At the same time, in laboratory animals on fructose diet, under immobilization stress conditions, a high level of glucocorticoids was observed throughout the whole experiment.
Conclusion. On this basis, metabolic changes were observed in the studied tissues, directed towards the synthesis of sialoglycoproteins in the experimental animals, long-term receiving food enriched with fructose, in contrast to the rats on high-fructose diet with simultaneous immobilization, in which the decay processes in the tissues of stomach and small intestine prevailed.
Liver transplant dysfunction: outcomes and prospects for the prevention of liver cirrhosis in the recipient
Authors: Memus K. P. , Khramikh T. P.
Published: April 2024

Liver transplantation is the only radical method of treatment and gives the last chance for recovery to patients with terminal stages of diffuse liver diseases. The available number of donor organs does not cover the needs of patients in the ever-growing waiting lists for transplantation. In this connection the possibilities of expanding the criteria of donor transplant eligibility and wide introduction of lifetime pre-donation are being actively studied. Together with the expansion of the donor pool and reduction of waiting list mortality, donors with expanded criteria differ from optimal and as- sociated with increased risks of postoperative complications. However, careful analysis of all risk factors on both the donor and recipient side allows for an optimal donor-recipient pairing. This approach can ensure short-term and long-term results of transplantation from a marginal donor similar to those of transplantation from an optimal donor. The liver taken from a marginal donor has less adaptive properties and is vulnerable to ischemia and reperfusion. Ischemia affecting the graft from the time of explantation, during transportation and during implantation triggers a cascade of alterative reactions that is exacerbated by the onset of reperfusion. The joint influence of ischemia and reperfusion can cause the graft dysfunction in the early postoperative period in the range from reversible to complete functional graft failure. In this connection, the issues of preservation and transportation of the donor liver as well as optimization of surgical tactics in order to minimize the influence of ischemia and reperfusion are becoming more and more urgent. The aim of the literature review was to analyze the data available in the literature about the hepatic transplant dysfunction, factors predisposing to it and methods of its prevention. The main criteria of donor selection for liver transplantation and the currently admissible limits of their expansion are given. The main mechanisms of ischemic and reperfusion damage of the transplant, inherent morphological changes and the most frequent outcomes are considered. A number of questions requiring further study within the framework of the problem under consideration are formulated.

Published: April 2024

Caffeine is a psychoactive world widely used substance to improve physical and cognitive athletes’ performance. However, its relative impact during outdoor competitions is not well investigated. The present investigation aimed to assess the impacts of a single moderate dose of caffeine ingestion on physical and cognitive performance following a 1500-m running competition. Methods: Fifteen recreational runners performed two test sessions in a randomized order at 09:00 a.m. after ingesting 5 mg.kg-1 caffeine or a placebo. At each session, participants realized the competition of 1500-m running in a field setting. Before and after the race, they performed the correct detection and reaction-time tasks. Compared to placebo, caffeine ingestion improved 1500-m performance time (1.5%, p < .01), increased correct detections (10.6%, p < .01), and decreased reaction time (6.3%, p < .001) following the race. Caffeine consumption is an effective strategy to enhance athletes’ physical and cognitive performances during such running distances.

The aim of this study was to determine the impact of web-based cognitive-behavioral therapy on chronic pain in patients with rheumatoid arthritis. The present study was an applied-semi-experimental research with a test and control group, utilizing a pretest-posttest design. All adults aged 30 to 60 years suffering from rheumatoid arthritis and visiting the clinics of two rheumatology subspecialists in the city of Mashhad constituted the research population. Considering the possibility of attrition, 21 individuals were allocated to the intervention group and 15 to the control group. After the research sample was determined in both the test and control groups, questionnaires on personal characteristics and chronic pain acceptance were completed by them, followed by the implementation of a cognitive-behavioral therapy training program for the intervention group in 8 sessions of 60 minutes each, web-based and through Skyroom. The control group did not receive any specific training. After the intervention ended, the questionnaires were completed again. Two months after the intervention, the questionnaires were filled out again by the groups for follow-up and to assess the persistence of the effect. Data were analyzed using SPSS V26 and EXCEL V2019 software. Based on the findings, web-based cognitive-behavioral therapy affects the acceptance of chronic pain in patients with rheumatoid arthritis. Therefore, considering the results of this research and other studies on the effectiveness of cognitive-behavioral group therapy in chronic physical diseases, in addition to medical treatments, the use of online psychological interventions can be beneficial and productive in increasing the acceptance of chronic pain and improving various functional dimensions of these patients.

The present study aimed to compare the effectiveness of the Successful Intelligence Training Package focused on risky behaviors (Baramkeh et al., 2024) with the Executive Functioning Improvement Package (Karimi et al., 2023) on the inclination to risky behavior and family affinity among female middle school students engaged in risky behaviors. The research method was a quasi-experimental design with pre-test, post-test, and follow-up phases, involving two experimental groups and one control group. The population consisted of all middle school students engaged in risky behaviors, from which 60 students were purposively selected based on inclusion and exclusion criteria and randomly assigned to two experimental groups and one control group. All subjects were assessed at three stages of the research using research instruments. These tools included the Inclination to Risky Behavior scale (Paki et al., 2020) and Family Affinity (Yousefi, 2022, cited from Karimi et al., 2023). While the control group was on a waiting list, the experimental groups received eight 120-minute sessions of Executive Functioning training and the Successful Intelligence Training Package focused on risky behaviors. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics (mean and standard deviation) and analysis of variance with repeated measures. The results indicated that both methods were effective on the dependent variables, and except for self-management, there was no significant difference in effectiveness between the two methods, with executive functioning having more effectiveness on the mentioned variable. Based on the findings, it can be said that both training packages are suitable for improving the dependent variables of this research.

This study aimed to investigate the multifaceted relationships between mindful parenting, family relationships, and mothers' reflective functioning with the emotional social adaptation of children with autism. The research was descriptive and correlational. The population consisted of all mothers with autistic children in the city of Kut. The sample included 200 mothers of children with autism, selected through convenience sampling. The research instruments were: the Children's Social Skills Questionnaire (Payton, 2008), Reflective Functioning (Yousefi, 2023), Mindful Parenting (McCaffrey, 2017), and Family Relationships by Barnes and Olson (1987). For data analysis, descriptive statistics (mean and standard deviation) and inferential statistics (Pearson correlation coefficient and stepwise regression) were used. The results showed that among the predictor variables, mindful parenting and its dimensions, relationship with spouse, and balanced reflective functioning had a significant relationship with the emotional social adaptation of children with autism. Among the mentioned variables, mindful parenting, relationship with spouse, and acceptance of the child had predictive power for emotional social adaptation. Based on these results, it can be said that improving the variables of parenting is beneficial for enhancing the emotional social adaptation of children.
