Socio-economic activity during cold season depends on a large degree by the air temperature and, in some cases, also on ground temperatures. In this context, the present study focused on two cold-season indices with practical applications, namely number of frost days (i.e., with minimum air temperature equal or below 0 °C) and number of frozen soil days (i.e., within minimum ground temperature equal or below 0 °C). The aim of the study was twofold: firstly, to investigate the observed changes of these indices in the last years; secondly, to assess the performance of alternative data sources for deriving information targeting specific beneficiaries of this climate-based information. The analysis concentrated on the area of Dolj county for the period October-April 2011-2022 and three data sources were used: observation data from weather stations, UERRA reanalysis dataset and E-OBS observation-based dataset. The results showed that for both indices the trend was negative. With low values of FD and FSD, autumn was a more favorable period for various activities than the early spring, whereas winter months were mostly unfavorable for outdoor activities. Thus, the study provided useful information for various end-users (e.g., in agriculture, construction sector) for better planning their activities.

The aim of this study is to model a rapid maximum runoff, response to a calculated rain with a probability of occurrence of 1% for several case studies within the Northwest Region of Romania, studied through NWPEAT project. The purpose of the study is focused also to identify the effect of raising ecological dams made of local materials in modifying the maximum torrential runoff at the outlet area from the peatlands sites. The methodology was applied to representative case studies, which revealed different/diversified conditions, both from the climatic, morphological, pedological, land cover or hydrological points of view. The first stage of the methodology focused on evaluating the inventory of the studied sites, the peatlands catchment features, their spatial analysis using morphological units and within the water balance, the analysis of runoff and aridity coefficients, etc. The modeling of the rain-runoff process was applied for two scenarios for each site, involving the presence or absence of the ecological dam. The results are quite dispersed from one case to another. Thus, we noticed a reduction in the maximum runoff of 70% in the case of the Mlaștina de la Iaz peatland, 40% in the case of the Lacul Manta peatland and only 8% in the case of the Ic Ponor peatland site. The difference between the three cases is made by the different patterns of some natural factors, among which are the peatland area, catchment area, shape of the basin and the slope, the degree of coverage with trees or less developed vegetation, the different layout of the sites compared to the flow directions of water vectors on the slope, etc.

La política turística de “sol y cemento” en Mar del Plata en los años setenta y ochenta
Authors: Castellucci Daniela Ivanova
Published: May 2024

El artículo se centra en el estudio del Complejo balneario de Punta Mogotes (Mar del Plata, Argentina), entendiéndolo como caso paradigmático que permite analizar el entramado de conflictos en torno al dominio, jurisdicción y usufructo de la playa, en los años setenta, por un lado; y, por el otro, estudiar la actuación del municipio frente a los conflictos previos a la construcción y posterior puesta en funcionamiento del complejo, en los años ochenta, y sus implicancias. El trabajo se inscribe en la perspectiva historiográfica de la historia social de la política. Se ha empleado una mirada metodológica interpretativista a través de una triangulación de estrategias cualitativas de recolección y análisis de datos. 
En años los sesenta y setenta esta franja costera se convirtió en un espacio de controversias entre los gobiernos provinciales, municipales y los vecinos, en la búsqueda de encontrar un uso que permitiera conciliar el acceso a las playas públicas y disfrute del paisaje con el negocio privado, dado que éste último implicaba una restricción al uso de dichos espacios. Así, este complejo, construido en los ochenta, ofició como catalizador de un proceso en donde se conjugaron múltiples acciones con incidencia en lo espacial, político, económico y social.
produção da “cidade oca” nos padrões recentes de verticalização e adensamento construtivo do município de São Paulo
Authors: Nakano Anderson Kazuo
Published: May 2024

O objetivo do presente artigo é discutir, a partir de empreendimentos imobiliários residenciais verticais lançados, no município de São Paulo, no período entre 1998 e 2008, algumas problemáticas relacionados com a mensuração da densidade urbana que precisam ser levados em conta na busca por cidades mais densas e compactas. Para discutir o conceito de “cidade compacta”, o estudo examina as relações entre a densidade construtiva e a densidade demográfica, e dessa com a verticalização dos prédios de apartamentos. Verifica-se também a relação entre a densidade demográfica e os preços anunciados no lançamento dos apartamentos. A intenção é reforçar a ideia de que o aumento da densidade urbana deve se basear mais na intensificação do aproveitamento da terra urbana com habitantes instalados em locais e moradias adequadas e menos no simples aumento de áreas construídas que pode levar à produção de uma “cidade oca”.

Published: May 2024

Compreender as estratégias de reconversão de uso em áreas centrais de interesse histórico-cultural sob a ótica da acessibilidade e mobilidade urbana, i.e., relações de copresença de pessoas pelo espaço aberto público devido a quantidade, diversidade e concentração de atividades em edificações, a fim de encontrar parâmetros de qualidade urbana que auxiliem em sua recuperação, a partir da abordagem de aspectos culturais e socioeconômicos, é o objetivo da presente pesquisa. A fundamentação conceitual considera que estratégias de intervenção centradas na escala humana atraem movimento para tais centralidades e, consequentemente, fomentam novos usos para as edificações existentes, revigorando a dinâmica do espaço urbano. O método proposto, a partir da análise da literatura, analisa comparativamente os casos das áreas centrais de Copenhague e Melbourne, tendo como produto um quadro síntese que ilustra as semelhanças entre as propostas e sua relação com possíveis critérios que conferem qualidade à paisagem urbana. Os resultados indicam que a dinâmica socioespacial pode ser alcançada quando a cidade passa a ser pensada de maneira compacta, ao nível dos olhos, em que as intervenções são pautadas em fundamentos de qualidade relacionados à proteção, conforto e satisfação, ou seja, a regenerescência dos centros urbanos é reflexo de condições adequadas de acessibilidade e mobilidade urbana.

Authors: Guo Hui , Chen Chin-Tsu , Khan Asif , Lin Yu-Chun , Tsao Chia-Chen , Chen Shih-Chih
Published: May 2024

Since 2019, major travel destinations worldwide have issued travel-related restrictions against COVID-19. There is much research on tourism, but few studies have been conducted to explain the relevance of revisiting intention from the perspective of the epidemic or the dramaturgical theory. The purpose of the research is to explore the impact of customer experience on revisit intention during the period of COVID-19 slowdown by using dramaturgical theory. This study used a survey methodology, and the questionnaire was distributed on an online questionnaire platform. The URL of the questionnaire was published on social media (such as Facebook and LINE) to collect data from 389 samples of people who have foreign travel experience. The data was analyzed by employing partial least square structural equation model (PLS-SEM) methodology with the help of the statistical software “SmartPLS”. The research findings are as follows: 1) setting, audience, and performance are the three important elements of dramaturgical theory that impact the experience quality; 2) customer experience of tourists has a significant impact on the experience quality; 3) experience quality has a significant positive impact on the experience value and relationship quality; 4) experience value and relationship quality are important predictors of revisit intention. This study provides academic implications regarding the use of dramaturgical theory in relation to customer experience and relationship constructs in the context of tourism. Furthermore, it also provides some practical implications to tourism practitioners and managers, which would assist tourism industries in developing successful marketing strategies for the possible recovery of COVID-19.

Published: May 2024

This study represents the first culture-independent profiling of microbial diversity in post-processing wastewater from underground coal gasification (UCG) processes. Three types of post-processing wastewater, named W1, W2 and W3, were obtained from three UCG processes involving two types of coal and two gasification agents, namely oxygen-enriched air and oxygen. Very high concentrations of BTEX (benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, xylene), polyaromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), and phenol were detected in the wastewater, classifying it into the fifth toxicity class, indicating very high acute toxicity. The values for the Shannon (H), Ace and Chao1 indices in W2 were the lowest compared to their values in W1 and W3. The dominate phyla were Proteobacteria, contributing 84.64% and 77.92% in W1 and W3, respectively, while Firmicutes dominated in W2 with a contribution of 66.85%. At the class level, Gammaproteobacteria and Alphaproteobacteria were predominant in W1 and W3, while Bacilli and Actinobacteria were predominant in W2. Among Bacilli, the Paenibacillus and Bacillus genera were the most numerous. Our results suggest that the main differentiating factor of the bacterial structure and diversity in the wastewater could be the gasification agent. These findings provide new insights into the shifting patterns of dominant bacteria in post-processing wastewater and illustrate the spread of bacteria in industrial contaminated wastewater.
National dairy research programs: what is their role in animal health and sustainability research?
Authors: Briggs Kaitlyn R. , Ackermann Mark
Published: May 2024

The US dairy industry has made great strides in improving animal health over many decades, which has driven substantial improvements in economic, social, and environmental sustainability. As consumer and corporate focus on climate continues to grow, the continued need to research and improve animal health and understand its connection with the environment is integral to the success of the dairy industry. Research to address these areas can be supported by national research programs and collaboration between them. The USDA and Dairy Management Inc established a collaborative research agreement in 2007; to date, this collaboration has not explicitly focused on animal health or its intersection with the environment. It is integral to the success of animal agriculture in an ever-changing sustainability landscape that animal health is addressed as a key piece of socioeconomic and environmental sustainability. An academic-industry stakeholder committee reached a consensus that supported this idea and identified that it is equally important to communicate these research findings with consumers in a way that resonates. The purpose of this Viewpoint article is to highlight that national research programs at the USDA Agricultural Research Service’s National Animal Disease Center and Dairy Management Inc can and should play an important role in supporting and facilitating research at the intersection of animal health and sustainability broadly.
Using computer vision and natural language processing technology to understand the narrative plot of children’s picture books
Authors: Jiang Yajuan
Published: May 2024

Computer vision is used for monitoring and classification analysis in today’s society. The monitoring error rate of children’s picture books and the manual efficiency of classification are too slow, so it is difficult to find suitable books in a short time. Computer vision can help monitor and classify children’s picture books based on natural processing techniques. In this paper, the comparison between classical calculation and evolutionary calculation is used to prove that evolutionary calculation has a better accuracy, and the evolutionary calculation is further studied, finally reaching 97.8% accuracy in monitoring. This kind of evolutionary calculation should be vigorously developed in the future.

Initially, a comprehensive dataset is compiled through extensive data collection. A multilayer BP neural network is then trained on this dataset for automated theft identification. Leveraging the Sine chaotic genetic algorithm further enhances network performance. Experimental results show an 88% prediction accuracy, offering improved accuracy, speed, and usability over traditional methods.
Subjectivity of Discourse Constructions in News Discourse by Integrating Construction Grammar and Critical Discourse Analysis
Authors: Peng Bingzhuan
Published: May 2024

This study aims to explore subjective connotations of different types of discourse constructions in news discourse in a systematic way. An analytical framework of the subjectivity of discourse constructions in news discourse was constructed. The subjectivity of discourse constructions in news discourse was analyzed by integrating Construction Grammar (CG), Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA), and inductive thinking in mathematics. The findings show that: (1) news discourse, a large discourse construction, is the form-feature-function pairs of discourse units in news reports, consisting of title-report constructions and main-content constructions with 20 subtypes and five features; (2) each type of discourse construction explicitly possesses its structures or markers and also reflects speakers’ rich subjective personal marks with five connotations. These findings help understand speakers’ emotions, attitudes, intentions, and ideologies towards objective events in a deeper way, interpret speakers’ embodied experiences and perception of the communicative context, and speakers’ concern over the hearers, thus promoting human communication.
Intelligent Decision Algorithm for Photovoltaic Power Generation Control Based on Feature Neural Computing Modeling
Authors: Tang Mingze
Published: May 2024

The integration of renewable energy sources into the power grid, especially photovoltaic (PV) systems, has seen a significant upsurge due to the global push for sustainable energy. However, the variable nature of solar energy poses unique challenges in the effective management and control of PV power generation. This study introduces an innovative approach to intelligent decision-making in PV power generation control, leveraging deep learning techniques for temporal data feature modeling. By collecting and analyzing time-series data from PV systems, the proposed method utilizes feature neural computing to model the inherent characteristics of the data, facilitating effective temporal feature classification. The classification results are then employed to inform intelligent control strategies, optimizing the efficiency and reliability of PV power generation. This article proposes an end-to-end neural network structure that can simultaneously mine multi-scale local information and global temporal correlation information in sequences. This structure is primarily achieved through a module. The module consists of two parallel branches. One branch improves the InceptionTime module with depthwise separable convolution to extract multi-scale subsequence information. The other branch employs multi-head self-attention technology with added layer positional encoding to extract global temporal correlation information in sequences.
An Overview of Alternative Protein Sources for Ruminants in the Tropical Area
Authors: Cherdthong Anusorn
Published: May 2024

Investigating alternative protein sources for ruminants in tropical regions is crucial due to distinct climatic conditions and limited resources. Scientists, acknowledging the challenges, are exploring locally accessible alternatives to develop cost-effective and sustainable protein supplements for ruminant nutrition, emphasizing the importance of understanding the nutritional composition for advancing livestock husbandry sustainability. The aim of this research is to elucidate alternative local protein sources for ruminants in tropical areas and assess their effectiveness in promoting sustainable production and enhancing ruminant nutrition. Protein feed sources are essential for providing amino acids to animals and producing animal products such as meat, milk, and wool. Inadequate protein in animal feed may have a detrimental impact on rumen fermentation and animal output. Therefore, alternative protein sources have received increased attention in order to replace the main protein source. The alternative protein sources in this review were divided into five categories: agricultural biomass, fodder shrubs, biological protein and plant weeds, insect protein and agro-industry biomass. Furthermore, plant secondary compounds found in alternative protein sources might be used to modulate rumen fermentation and improve animal performance. By focusing on regional sources of protein, feed costs are reduced while availability is raised. Based on this analysis, it can be concluded that there are a number of alternative protein sources that might be used in place of primary protein sources and that they could support ruminant production in the face of several animal feed crises. However, the potential use of any protein source should be assessed in light of the country’s availability and animal production practices.

Authors: Ahani Saman , Ghafarifarsani Hamed , Ahani Sara , Farsani Mehdi Naderi , Yousefi Morteza
Published: May 2024

The current research evaluated the effects of dietary hesperidin (HSP) on growth parameters, digestive enzyme activities, innate immune markers, and antioxidant responses in rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss after the 30- and 60-day feeding trial. Then, specimens were subjected to Yersinia ruckeri infection for 14 days. For this, six hundred rainbow trout juveniles (initial weight; 25.49±0.40 g) were fed with different levels of HSP including 0 (HSP0; control), 50 (HSP50), 100 (HSP100), 150 (HSP150), and 200 (HSP200) mg/kg feed. After 60 days, dietary HSP100 supplementation significantly improved growth and feed efficiency indices. The optimal dose of HSP based on the regression test for WG and FCR detected 122 and 131 mg/kg, respectively. At the end of the 30th day, dietary HSP150 supplementation markedly boosted serum lysozyme (LYZ), myeloperoxidase (MPO), complement component C3, and immunoglobulin (Ig) levels, but decreased malondialdehyde (MDA) content. In the same period, dietary administration of HSP at the different concentrations markedly increased complement component C4 (HSP150 and HSP200), superoxide dismutase (SOD), skin mucus alkaline phosphatase (ALP) (HSP100–HSP200), skin mucus LYZ and catalase (CAT) (HSP100 and HSP 150), and skin mucus Ig level (HSP50–HSP200). After 60 days, all dietary HSP supplementation significantly improved lipase, serum C3, glutathione peroxidase (GPX), and skin mucus ALP, LYZ, and Ig levels, but decreased MDA, aspartate aminotransferase (AST), and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) values. After 60 days, dietary administration of HSP150 induced a significant discrepancy in the activity of serum LYZ, MPO, respiratory burst (RB), and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) compared to the control group. In the same period, dietary HSP supplementation at different levels induced a remarkable increase in digestive protease activity (HSP100), serum ACH50 and CAT activities (HSP100 and HSP150), skin mucus peroxidase and serum SOD levels (HSP100–HSP200), and serum C4 value (HSP50, HSP150, and HSP200), but markedly decreased ALP activity (HSP150 and HSP200). In addition, dietary HSP supplementation, especially HSP150, markedly boosted disease resistance against Y. ruckeri infection. The current data demonstrated that the oral administration of 100–150 mg/kg HSP has a high potential to promote growth performance, disease resistance, and faster induction of immune and antioxidant responses.

Authors: Rybarczyk Artur , Bogusławska-Wąs Elżbieta , Tobolska Izabella , Dłubała Alicja
Published: May 2024

The study was conducted on 112 broiler chickens fed for 35 and 37 days with various levels of distiller’s yeast in diets – 3% in starter, 6% in grower, and 9% in finisher feeds. The results showed that as the level of distiller’s dried yeast in the broiler diets increased, the total number of bacteria in the mucosa of the small intestine, cecum, and colon decreased, including mainly Enterobacteriaceae, Enterococcus, and E. coli. The addition of 9% yeast to the diet significantly reduced the abundance of Lactobacillus sp. in the intestinal mucosa of broiler chickens. There was no significant effect of the level of distiller’s dried yeast in the diet of broiler chickens on carcass quality, pH, water holding capacity, sensory characteristics, and macronutrient and micronutrient content in breast muscle. On the other hand, there was a significant effect of the analyzed distiller’s yeast on color characteristics and basic chemical composition of breast muscle. The highest lightness (L*), yellowness (b*), and chroma (C*) and the lowest dry matter content were found in the meat of chickens receiving 6% and 9% distiller’s dried yeast in their diets. The results of the study indicate that for the best results in terms of carcass and meat quality, the optimal content of the analyzed yeast in the diet of broiler chickens should not exceed 3%.

Authors: Nayak Ananya , Chatterjee Dipankar , Dalapati Suvarun
Published: May 2024

Generally in under-graduate studies, magnetizing inrush current (MIC) is discussed theoretically without giving much practical exposure. This paper presents the development of a low cost experimental set-up using a digital controller to study the MIC and the different parameters which can affect the same. This also helps to show how the inrush current can be minimized. This set-up also provides a hands-on experience of MIC and its control in under-graduate study, which can help an upcoming practitioner in industry as well as in further research. This paper presents a brief description of MIC, followed by a short analysis. Here, a pair of anti-parallel thyristors are connected in series with the primary winding of a single-phase power transformer. The turningon instant of this switch, with respect to the zero-crossing instant of the input supply voltage, may be adjusted through a firmware, in a PIC18F4620 from Microchip Technology microcontroller development board from Microchip Technology to control the transformer energisation instant. The firmware is developed in MPLABX-IDE from Microchip Technology, and the scheme is verified via simulations in Proteus simulation software. A suitable circuit to support the microcontroller development board to achieve the above function is designed and fabricated.

Generation Z significantly contributes to increasing the entrepreneurship ratio to contribute to Indonesia's economic growth. This purpose of this study is to investigate how entrepreneurship education, self-efficacy, and entrepreneurial mindset affect the entrepreneurial intentions on Generation Z. The research used a descriptive approach through the purposive sampling method. The sample obtained for this study consisted of 139 Generation Z respondents represented by vocational high school students and university students in Jakarta. The research hypotheses were processed using PLS-SEM. From the data analysis, it was found that two hypotheses were rejected, namely entrepreneurship education and self-efficacy on entrepreneurial intentions. Meanwhile, other hypotheses examining the influence of entrepreneurship education on self-efficacy and entrepreneurial mindset were accepted. Furthermore, this study revealed that entrepreneurial mindset could predict the entrepreneurial intentions of Generation Z. In this study, self-efficacy did not serve as a mediating variable, but entrepreneurial mindset could mediate relationship between entrepreneurship education and entrepreneurial intentions. The findings of this research are expected to support higher education institutions and vocational schools in designing appropriate curricula to shape self-efficacy and entrepreneurial mindset.

Misterio y secreto en dos novelas cortas sobre la violencia colonialista
Authors: Velasco Raquel
Published: May 2024

Las siguientes páginas pretenden trazar una línea de convergencia entre El corazón de las tinieblas (1899) de Joseph Conrad y Residuos de espanto (2013) de Liliana Blum, en el afán de recuperar el vaivén de dos novelas cortas cuyos márgenes geográficos y emocionales han sido implosionados por las vicisitudes de colonialismos diferenciados, ya sea como consecuencia de la vorágine capitalista o de la violencia provocada por las segregaciones a las que conduce la guerra. Ambas tramas ofrecen perfiles diferenciados de una memoria histórica compartida, a través de los cuales se enfatiza la relevancia de narrar, especialmente cuando sucumbimos ante el declive de las certezas. Tales obras, adicionalmente, dan la pauta para proponer un puente entre el concepto de misterio, expuesto por Giorgio Agamben en El fuego y el relato (2016), y el funcionamiento del secreto al interior de la novela corta.
Mystery and Tale in Two Short Novels on Colonialist Violence
Abstract
The following pages aim to draw a convergence between Joseph Conrad’s El corazón de las tinieblas (1899) and Liliana Blum’s Residuos de espanto (2013), in an effort recover the flow of two short novels whose geographical and emotional margins have been imploded by the vicissitudes of distinct colonialisms, whether as a consequence of capitalist turmoil or violence provoked by the segregations that war leads to. Both plots offer differentiated profiles of a shared historical memory, through which the relevance of narrative is emphasized, especially when we succumb to the decline of certainties. Furthermore, these works provide the groundwork for proposing a bridge between the concept of mystery, as exposed by Giorgio Agamben in El fuego y el relato (2016), and the functioning of secret within the short novel.

Guiado por la sugerencia de Martin Lienhard –observar la “existencia social” de los materiales–, en este texto busqué referirme a dos tipos de materiales que procedían de la oralidad, y que mudaron a tener un respaldo fuera del ámbito en que las personas la emitían con fines propios a la colectividad a la que pertenecían. Son soportes originados en Chiapas, en los Altos de Chiapas y la región de la frontera con Guatemala, con los que es posible darse cuenta de cómo se ha transitado de la oralidad a la escritura, de un tipo de oralidad a otro tipo, desplazamiento que no deja de ser relevante si se quiere comprender lo que ocurre en determinadas colectividades.
Two Supports of the Voice: their Description to Glimpse the Social Existence of Literary Texts
Abstract
Guided by Martin Lienhard’s suggestion –observing the “social existence” of materials–, in this text I sought to refer to two types of materials that came from orality and that began to have support outside the area in which people issued them with purposes specific to the community to which they belonged. They are supports originating in Chiapas, in the Chiapas Highlands and the region on the border with Guatemala, with which it is possible to realize how there has been a transition from orality to writing, from one type of orality to another type, a displacement that It is still relevant if you want to understand what happens in certain communities.

Un fantasma recorre la historia de los estudios literarios en Hispanoamérica: la indisciplina. Menciona Sebastián Pineda Buitrago (Medellín, Colombia, 1982): “Aunque en el siglo XIX latinoamericano hay cierto cultivo de la lingüística y de la ecdótica, las técnicas hermenéuticas de la filología alemana lucen por su ausencia, es decir, hay una indisciplina en la interpretación, un desdén por la educación poética y por la edición crítica” (p. II).

Prāṇā Dan Persembahan Melalui Prāṇāyàma
Authors: Brahman I Made Adi
Published: May 2024

Pengetahuan tentang prana atau vayu dan praktik ritual dengan media prana (pranayama) dalam kesusastraan Hindu adalah hal yang penting untuk digali dan dipahami. Prana adalah energi vital kehidupan yang menjadi tumpuan bagi semua mahluk hidup. Prana adalah lapisan badan halus manusia yang terbuat dari lapisan energi vital dengan fungsi sebagai penghubung antara badan fisik dengan dengan lapisan badan halus (etherik). Intisari paling mendasar dari prana adalah Tuhan (Brahman) itu sendiri. Pranayama merupakan ritual dengan menggunakan sarana prana (vayu) yaitu energi vital kehidupan. Persembahan ini dilakukan untuk ‘membersihkan’ dan ‘membakar’ segala kekotoran batin (dosa) yang menghalangi dan menutupi keberadaan sang diri sebagai Jiwa (Atman) yang tidak lain adalah tunggal dengan keberadaan Tuhan (Brahman) itu sendiri.

Dynamics of the relative values of youth in education and in the labor market

The subject of the study is the process of transformation of youth values in the context of social adaptation in the labor market.The object of the study is the system of social behavior of young people in the context of educational and work activities. The authors investigate in detail the causes of the social risks of youth deprofessionalization. Attention is drawn to the fact that personal values often acquire their "relative" character and are considered by young people in the context of social adaptation. Based on the analysis of the social behavior of young people in the context of educational and work activities, the focus is on the social risks of their deprofessionalization. It is emphasized that the division of values according to the priority of "survival – self-expression" has become key to differentiating the social status of social groups. Higher education plays a key role as an institution, without which it is impossible to implement a model of leadership and sustainable development.General theoretical methods (synthesis, comparison, analogy) were used in the study of value dynamics, general scientific methodological concepts (structural, functional, interpretative) were used in the analysis of scientific and theoretical approaches, secondary data analysis methods (content analysis) were used to study value transformations. The main conclusions of the study are: - the processes of transformation of values in the system of social relations are largely related to the fact that the trajectories of personality development change under the influence of objective and subjective conditions. In this regard, the key role is assigned to the institute of education; - education as a social institution focuses on the dynamics of value transformations and focuses on the socialization of a new generation of youth. The trajectories of professional development determined by him make it possible to reduce "value inflation" and generate demand for the most demanded professional knowledge and competencies for society. The observed process of "value inflation" suggests that social partners have to "tighten" the professional skills of at least a quarter of employed graduates; - the problem of professional development lies in the loss of the value of professional activity itself and leveling the ability of a fixed group of graduates to self-development. We are talking about "relative" values and their binding, on the one hand, to the strategy of adaptation of young people in the labor market, on the other – to sustainable personal growth. The novelty of the research lies in the concretization of the dynamics of the "relative" values of young people in education in relation to the conditions of their social adaptation in the labor market.
