School trips to historical sites: students’ cognitive, affective and physical experiences from visits to Auschwitz
Authors: Berg Mikael , Stolare Martin
Published: March 2024

History can be experienced in many ways, including visits to historical sites. Indeed, it is becoming increasingly common for Swedish schools to organise trips for their students to historical sites; in this case, to concentration camps. This article analyses how cognitive, affective and physical experiences frame students’ interpretations of historical sites, and discusses how visits to historical sites might contribute to history education. The research questions we examine are as follows: What forms of experience did the students express, and how did these forms relate to each other? What implications might these expressed experiences pose for how teachers organise their teaching, including trips to Holocaust memorial sites? This article analyses seminars that comprised part of the examinable work in a course that involved a study trip to Auschwitz concentration camp. Empirical data were analysed using a model in which cognitive, affective and physical experiences were identified and described. The results demonstrate how cognitive, affective and physical responses interact with students’ experiences. Students described how the school trip contributed to their understanding of what is and is not possible to know, and to their will to influence society. Thus, the results indicate that physical encounters with historical sites can create new opportunities for students’ learning of history and the meaning making that comes from it.
Desvendando os Praticantes da Avaliação de Impacto Ambiental no Brasil: Perfil, Formação e Percepção da Prática da AIA pelos Participantes do CBAI

Published: March 2024

A prática da Avaliação de Impacto Ambiental (AIA) demanda interações entre diferentes atores e sua efetividade depende de como eles respondem às suas próprias expectativas, e àquelas de outros atores e normas legais. Assim, os praticantes da AIA têm um importante papel e podem atuar como atores ativos na melhoria desse processo. Este trabalho analisa o perfil dos praticantes de AIA no Brasil que participaram de pelo menos uma das cinco primeiras edições do Congresso Brasileiro de Avaliação de Impacto (CBAI) e sua percepção sobre a prática da AIA no país. A pesquisa qualiquantitativa partiu da premissa de que os praticantes da AIA teriam participado de pelo menos um dos cinco primeiros congressos (CBAI) promovidos pela Associação Brasileira de Avaliação de Impacto (ABAI). A coleta de dados foi realizada por meio de questionário on-line, encaminhado para os 794 contatos cadastrados na ABAI e disponibilizado entre 26/09 e 01/11/2022. Foram obtidas 217 respostas, sendo os participantes 48% homens e 52% mulheres, e a maioria entre 25 e 45 anos. Todos os respondentes receberam alguma formação em AIA (graduação, pós-graduação ou outro contexto) e a maior parte trabalha na área há mais de 10 anos, sendo as principais atuações em consultoria e na academia. As percepções sobre a qualidade, problemas, pontos positivos e oportunidades da prática brasileira da AIA, de modo geral, convergiram com a literatura. Também se notou a tendência em discordar da simplificação da AIA e do Licenciamento Ambiental e concordar com a necessidade da aplicação da Avaliação Ambiental Estratégica no Brasil. Os resultados encontrados são importantes para entender quem são e o que pensam essa parcela dos praticantes de AIA no Brasil.

As part of this work, a citizens’ assembly was set up to obtain feedback on measures to decarbonize Berlin’s transport sector. The general goal of decarbonization was widely supported. Based on existing studies, discussions were held for private passenger transport, commercial passenger transport, freight transport, and all other transport modes. Agreement could be found on the decarbonization paths for all segments, with the exception of private passenger transport. For the latter, pull measures, like improvements of public transport or bike lanes, are generally accepted, going along with a general desire to switch to non-fossil fuels and to make the transport system in Berlin less car-oriented. Simulations show that pull measures will be far from sufficient to decarbonize private passenger transport. However, more effective push measures, such as higher prices or ban on fossil-fueled vehicles, did not yield clear majorities for this segment.
AI‑based decision support systems and society: An opening statement
Authors: Schneider Diana , Weber Karsten
Published: March 2024

Although artificial intelligence (AI) and automated decision-making systems have been around for some time, they have only recently gained in importance as they are now actually being used and are no longer just the subject of research. AI to support decision-making is thus affecting ever larger parts of society, creating technical, but above all ethical, legal, and societal challenges, as decisions can now be made by machines that were previously the responsibility of humans. This introduction provides an overview of attempts to regulate AI and addresses key challenges that arise when integrating AI systems into human decision-making. The Special topic brings together research articles that present societal challenges, ethical issues, stakeholders, and possible futures of AI use for decision support in healthcare, the legal system, and border control.

The aim of the study is to present the influence and importance of European Union law on the development of public economic law in Poland. This impact was undoubtedly very significant – it changed in the pre-accession period and after Poland’s accession to the EU and covered many areas. The science of public economic law has long addressed current issues concerning the impact of EU law as well as the acquis communautaire of the European Union on the subject matter of this particular discipline of jurisprudence. The interest in European (EU) topics affected domestic legal studies as a whole and was, for understandable reasons, also applied by other scientific disciplines from their own respective research perspectives. Even in the previous socio-political-economic system, in the period of the Polish People’s Republic, scholars dealing with current public economic law analyzed systemic and specific (detailed) issues of various types, which is confirmed by a review of the literature. Undoubtedly, this influence of legal norms and the EU acquis, both in the pre-accession period and then in the period of EU membership, has increased significantly and has transformed the legal order. These changes concern both the legal situation of entrepreneurs and the position (status) of public authorities, especially economic administration bodies, and the entire mechanism of implementing the multicentric legal system in the social market economy. Substantive, procedural and organizational norms have been transformed, which at the same time sometimes required a revision of previous research attitudes. However, this has definitely opened up new prospects for scientific cognition and teaching in the university world and significantly influenced economic turnover

Published: March 2024

The Ahe Formation in the Dibei Area is a key natural gas exploration formation in the northern structural belt. Based on geological data such as formation tests and physical properties, the tight reservoirs were determined using the empirical statistics method, distribution function method, oil-bearing occurrence method, and bound fluid saturation method reasonably. The lower limit of the oil-bearing physical properties of the layer was further analyzed for the differences between the methods. The pore-throat structure of tight sandstone was characterized by high-pressure mercury intrusion data, and the classification and evaluation standard of tight sandstone in the Ahe Formation in the Dibei Area was established combining fractal theory and physical property data. The results show that the lower physical limit porosity of the tight reservoir of the Ahe Formation in the Dibei Area is 2.4%, and the lower permeability limit is 0.021 × 10−3 μm2. According to the fractal dimension characteristics of the mercury injection curve, the different structural characteristics of four types of pores (fracture, macropore, mesopore, and small pore) can be divided with the boundary values are 3,000, 1,000, and 100 nm; the tight reservoir of the Ahe Formation in Dibei Area can be classified into four categories: (a) type I reservoir (Ф > 7%), mainly composed of fracture and macropore; (b) type II reservoir (4% < Ф < 7%), mainly made up of macropore and mesopore; (c) type III reservoir (2% < Ф < 4%), mainly formed by mesopore; and (d) type IV reservoir (Ф < 2%) dominated by small pore, followed by mesopore.
Improved rapidly exploring random tree using salp swarm algorithm
Authors: Muhsen Dena Kadhim , Raheem Firas Abdulrazzaq , Sadiq Ahmed T.
Published: March 2024

Due to the limitations of the initial rapidly exploring random tree (RRT) algorithm, robotics faces challenges in path planning. This study proposes the integration of the metaheuristic salp swarm algorithm (SSA) to enhance the RRT algorithm, resulting in a new algorithm termed IRRT-SSA. The IRRT-SSA addresses issues inherent in the original RRT, enhancing efficiency and path-finding capabilities. A detailed explanation of IRRT-SSA is provided, emphasizing its distinctions from the core RRT. Comprehensive insights into parameterization and algorithmic processes contribute to a thorough understanding of its implementation. Comparative analysis demonstrates the superior performance of IRRT-SSA over the basic RRT, showing improvements of approximately 49, 54, and 54% in average path length, number of nodes, and number of iterations, respectively. This signifies the enhanced effectiveness of the proposed method. Theoretical and practical implications of IRRT-SSA are highlighted, particularly its influence on practical robotic applications, serving as an exemplar of tangible benefits.
Temporal effects of caffeine on intrapulmonary shunt in preterm ventilated infants
Authors: Kaltsogianni Ourania , Bhat Ravindra , Greenough Anne , Dassios Theodore
Published: March 2024

Objectives

We hypothesized that caffeine would be associated with a transient reduction in the right-to-left shunt and VA/Q. We aimed to explore the temporal effects of caffeine on right-to-left shunt, ventilation perfusion ratio (VA/Q) and shift of the oxyhaemoglobin dissociation curve (ODC) in premature ventilated infants.

Methods

Retrospective cohort study at a tertiary neonatal unit of infants born at less than 31 weeks of gestation that were mechanically ventilated on day three of life. The non-invasive method of the ODC was used to determine the right-to-left shunt, VA/Q and shift before and at 1, 4 and 20 h after a maintenance dose of caffeine citrate.

Results

A total of 21 infants were included with a median (range) gestational age of 27 (23.7–30.7) weeks. The median shunt percentage was significantly reduced, compared to baseline at 1 h (8 (range: 7–9) % vs. 4 (range: 0–6) %, p=0.042) and 4 h post caffeine administration (8 (range: 7–9) % vs. 0 (range: 0–3) %, p=0.042), but the VA/Q and the right shift of the ODC did not differ significantly between these time points. At 20 h, there were no significant differences between these indices compared to baseline values.

Conclusions

Caffeine led to a transient decrease in intrapulmonary shunt from one to 4 h after administration and this may be due to its diuretic action.

Published: March 2024

Copper nanoparticles are widely used in many sectors and research endeavors owing to their unique properties, including a large surface area, catalytic capabilities, and high thermal and electrical conductivity. The selection of the base fluid for copper nanoparticles should be contingent upon the anticipated application requirements since various fluids exhibit distinct characteristics that could potentially impact the mobility of the nanoparticles. The present investigation analyzes heat transfer phenomena occurring across a radially stretched surface. The research explores the effects of different states of Cu nanoparticles when combined with base fluids, such as water and silicone oil, on the heat transfer process. The momentum and energy equations are transformed into nonlinear ordinary differential equations by applying the similarity transformation. The boundary value problem-fourth-order (BVP4C) method numerically solves the governing ordinary differential equation for the modeled problem. In addition, the influence of various factors such as the slip parameter, solid volume fraction, Eckert number, Prandtl number, and unsteadiness parameter are examined. It has been discovered that blade-shaped nanoparticles transfer heat as quickly as possible via silicone oil and water. However, for platelet-shaped nanoparticles, a minimum heat transfer rate has been noted. The maximum skin friction coefficient is observed in platelet-shaped nanoparticles, while blade-shaped nanoparticles have the lowest skin friction coefficient.
The double bottom line of savings banks and credit cooperatives – Insights into lived practice
Authors: Burgstaller Johann , Dietl Katharina , Stötzer Sandra
Published: March 2024

Credit cooperatives and savings banks not only fulfill economic purposes, but also pursue social objectives. An orientation towards the common good as part of their hybrid target system leads to positive externalities of their business activities for society, such as the stabilization of the financial sector or the support of vulnerable groups. However, an analysis of current literature and a quantitative study on the lived practice of their social mission show that cooperative and savings banks so far only inadequately communicate the implementation of their values and principles to the public. The article thus offers an insight into the social commitment of Austrian banks and discusses potential obstacles to intensified double bottom line accountability.

Lockie, RG, Orr, RM, Montes, F, and Dawes, JJ. A research note exploring the impact of firefighter trainee fitness on academy graduation or release. J Strength Cond Res XX(X): 000–000, 2024—This study investigated the impact of fitness test performance on firefighter trainee ability to graduate an academy using ordinal logistic generalized linear models. Retrospective analysis was conducted on trainee data (N = 686) from one fire department who completed an occupational physical ability test (OPAT) that included the following: Illinois agility test (IAT); push-ups; pull-ups; leg tucks; maximal aerobic capacity (V̇o
2max); backward overhead 4.54-kg medicine ball throw (BOMBT); 10-repetition maximum deadlift; and 91.44-m farmer's carry. Data were recorded in raw and scaled scores based on internal scoring (tests scored from 0 to 100; maximum total OPAT score of 800). Trainees were split into graduated (n = 576) or released (n = 110) groups. Data were analyzed through ordinal logistic generalized linear models (p < 0.05). Raw and scaled scores were investigated separately, with odds ratios (OR) and confidence intervals (CI) produced. Regarding raw scores, there was a difference in the odds of graduating relative to the IAT (OR = 1.357; CI = 1.047–1.760; p = 0.021), BOMBT (OR = 0.744; CI = 0.628–0.882; p < 0.001), and V̇o
2max (OR = 0.907; CI = 0.862–0.954; p < 0.001). For scaled scores, there was a difference in the odds of graduating relative to the points attained for the BOMBT (OR = 0.985; CI = 0.972–0.999; p = 0.032), deadlift (OR = 0.982; CI = 0.968–0.995; p = 0.008), and total OPAT (OR = 0.994; CI = 0.988–1.000; p = 0.047). Change-of-direction speed (IAT), total-body power (BOMBT), aerobic fitness (V̇o
2max), lower-body strength (deadlift), and overall fitness (total OPAT points) impacted the odds of trainee fire academy graduation. The IAT presented as the largest impacting variable where, for every unit increase in time (i.e., a slower IAT), there was 1.36 greater chance of a trainee being released from the academy.
Relative Humidity and Absolute Moisture Content Effects on the Compression Strength of Corrugated Boxes
Authors: Brown Gary A. , Batt Gregory S. , Darby Duncan , Daum Matthew
Published: March 2024

Corrugated boxes are relatively inexpensive and used extensively to contain and protect consumer products as they move through the distribution system, providing a much-needed function in today’s economy. These boxes are constructed from paper, and therefore the mechanical properties of the boxes vary significantly with moisture content in the paper and available in the atmosphere. Relative humidity regularly varies between 30 to 90 % depending on location and time of year. Above a relative humidity of 30 %, paper fibers are affected, resulting in a decrease in the top-to-bottom compression strength of corrugated boxes. Therefore, understanding the moisture effect on box compression strength is essential for the containment, protection, and safe shipment of products. The goal of this study is to characterize the effect of relative humidity and, subsequently, the effects of moisture content on the compressive resistance of corrugated boxes. A total of 3,000 industry supplied boxes are used to evaluate moisture content and compressive strength at seven relative humidity conditions from 30 to 90 %. Three sets of conditions are repeated to test repeatability for a total of ten batches tested. The moisture content for 3 out of every 10 specimens is recorded using a loss-upon-drying moisture balance. Results indicate a second-order polynomial increase in moisture content as a function of relative humidity. The compression strength of corrugated boxes is found to vary linearly with moisture content for the range tested and follows a second-order polynomial decrease with increasing relative humidity. The data from this study are compiled into a table of corrugated box strength reduction factors for comparison with the results from previous studies.

O DIREITO É ARTE, CIÊNCIA OU PRUDÊNCIA?
Authors: Damasceno Daniel
Published: March 2024

Este trabalho investiga o estatuto ontológico da prática judicial dentro do contexto histórico da Antiguidade e do Medievo. A partir da modernidade, a diferenciação clássica entre arte, ciência e prudência foi perdida, de modo que as ciências naturais passaram à posição de representantes autênticas do método científico. Para não perder o seu prestígio científico, as ciências humanas foram forçadas a adotarem os métodos próprios daquelas, o que tem gerado confusão acerca da complexa natureza do direito. Por meio da revisão de literatura dos autores clássicos e medievais, mediante o emprego do método histórico-dialético, conclui-se que, no passado, o direito era, sobretudo, uma prudência, porque esta categoria da razão prática é mais próxima à realidade que as leis e as decisões judiciais abarcam.
Vaccine Skeptics and Vaccine Enthusiasts: What Is the Intergroup Wall Made Of?
Authors: Izydorczak Kamil , Dolinski Dariusz
Published: March 2024

Dehumanization in various forms often accompanies intergroup relations. While it is not clear whether it is a signifier of hostility or rather a source of it, there is a clear link - when dehumanization occurs between groups, we can expect effects ranging from a lack of mutual pro-sociality to an endorsement of violence against an out-group.

Our study tested whether mutual dehumanization and meta-dehumanization (the belief that we are being dehumanized by an out-group) occur between supporters and opponents of a COVID-19 vaccine. Using a diverse sample (n = 1262) of residents of Poland, the USA and RPA, we investigated whether attitudes towards COVID-19 vaccines can form the basis of an in-group preference and to what extent such groups would dehumanize their opponents.

We found evidence for strong in-group preferences among both vaccine enthusiasts and vaccine skeptics. We also found evidence of mutual dehumanization and meta-dehumanization. This dehumanization was particularly pronounced in the case of more extreme forms (as assessed by direct dehumanization and blatant dehumanization measures) and marginally present in the case of subtle dehumanization (as assessed by dual model dehumanization). Vaccine enthusiasts dehumanized vaccine skeptics in all aspects measured, vaccine skeptics dehumanized vaccine enthusiasts in all aspects except one - they did not dehumanize them mechanistically. Overall, the dehumanization found was strong, universal across the countries studied, and largely unspecific.

Contrary to our predictions, we did not find many distinctive forms of dehumanization specific to a particular target group - the dehumanization observed was largely symmetrical.

The development of information systems and technology has certainly changed people's behavior in carrying out their activities which were initially carried out manually and can now be carried out digitally so that they are more effective and efficient. The Service Research Information System (SIPP) is a transformation carried out to digitize research and service services within the Semarang State University (UNNES). As a service provider, to find out whether the UNNES Service Research Information System (SIPP) is running as it should, an evaluation process is needed on the performance of the information system. In carrying out information system analysis and evaluation activities, the PIECES Framework analysis model is used. PIECES framework is a framework that has six categories for classification and problem solving, namely Performance, Information and Data, Economics, Control and Security, Efficiency, and Service. The use of the PIECES framework method is very suitable for analyzing each system variable studied because it can provide real results on the effectiveness of the system used by UNNES. The aim of this research is to measure the level of satisfaction, find out strengths and weaknesses, analyze what components need to be improved in the quality of service at SIPP.

Después de las enfermedades cardiovasculares, el cáncer una patología no transmisible ha sido considerada como la segunda causa de muertes cada año a nivel global y como la barrera más importante para aumentar la esperanza de vida en el siglo 21. Se han alcanzado avances de gran relevancia en su prevención y tratamiento, sin embargo, existe aún un largo camino por recorrer para alcanzar un tratamiento efectivo para cada tipo de cáncer. En este trabajo se describen enfoques de reposicionamiento y síntesis de moléculas hibridas con potencial actividad antineoplásica. Para obtener el aldehído intermediario clave, se empleó la metodología de oxidación de Dess-Martin, que fue acoplado con las cetonas correspondientes usando LDA. Los compuestos híbridos finales fueron obtenidos como una mezcla racémica. La actividad antiproliferativa in vitro de los compuestos finales se evaluó frente a ocho líneas celulares derivadas de tumores sólidos humanos, y cuatro líneas celulares no cancerosas. El compuesto 11d resulto ser el más efectivo y con mayor índice de seguridad. Los resultados sugirieron que estos compuestos podrían bloquear el ciclo celular e inducir la apoptosis y la muerte en las células CCRF-CEM de forma dependiente de la dosis in vitro.
«En medio de esa sombría desolación, bulle allí la vida». Aproximaciones a La tierra maldita de Liborio Justo
Authors: Cimadevilla Pilar
Published: March 2024

Luego de numerosos viajes por la región patagónica, el escritor argentino Liborio Justo (1901-2002) escribe y publica en 1932 el volumen titulado La tierra maldita. A lo largo de los doce relatos que componen el libro, Justo propone un modo singular de ver la región que dialoga con la tradición del viaje a la Patagonia. La propuesta de este artículo consiste en indagar de qué manera La tierra maldita puede ser pensado como un texto que continúa la mirada darwiniana sobre el viaje al extremo sur, al mismo tiempo que incorpora otras voces y argumentos para reinventar la narrativa sobre la Patagonia después de la llamada «Conquista del desierto».
A Re-Examination of Earthquakes in Mediterranean Archaeology in Light of Historical Sources
Authors: Gaggioli Amanda M.
Published: March 2024

Interest in earthquakes in Mediterranean archaeology has distinct disciplinary origins. Since the inception of archaeoseismology—earthquake archaeology—in the 1980s, approaches to earthquake factors have been characterized by reliance on ancient historical sources. However, although texts have supported the identification of earthquake disasters in material destruction, documentary records extend far beyond particular events and experiences of disaster; diverse cultural perceptions of earthquakes as expressed in ancient textual sources also offer an alternative interpretation for Mediterranean archaeology. This study reviews the material-geological record of Helike in Greece—the victim of an infamous major earthquake in 373 BC—in order to assess the impact of seismic activity on the site from the third millennium BC to the fifth century AD. Evidence for such an impact includes archaeoseismic types of destruction, anti-seismic construction in architecture and stratigraphically associated soil micromorphological evidence of seismically triggered soft sediment deformation structures (SSDS). A reassessment of ancient accounts of the 373 BC event to explore Graeco-Roman cultural perceptions of earthquakes provides a new interpretive frame for the material-geological record of Helike. This alternative interpretation repositions earthquakes, traditionally perceived as ‘natural’ disasters implicated in ‘collapse’ and ‘catastrophe’, as social phenomena. The case of Helike demonstrates the value of documentary records for reframing the complex social and political dimensions of recurrent earthquakes and persistent geological hazards.
A Food Craze in Europe
Authors: Scholliers Peter
Published: March 2024

Food crazes and fads inform about consumers’ deeper concerns, desires or fears regarding health, status or identity. Primarily, food crazes provide insight in the way food innovation may occur. How about bread crazes in the past? Did some sorts of bread receive attention that made them popular during a particular period? If so, when, where, and why? I look at nineteenth-century newspapers to investigate discourses and practices about bread fads. I tackle my topic in a pragmatic way. First, there is the geographical limitation. Because bread has so many types and meanings throughout the world it is necessary to select a specific region, and Belgium will be studied. Second, this essay will focus on one such fad concerning bread during the Belle Epoque (1890 to 1914).

Foreign practices in municipal governance: experience and features of implementation
Authors: Zakharchuk Ekaterina , Trifonova Polina
Published: March 2024

The relevance of this article is determined by the growing need to increase trust in state authorities and local self-government on the part of the population of the territories, including the quality of management decisions made that would contribute to the implementation of projects of the best municipal practices for the development of territories. The purpose of this work is to study foreign experience in implementing the best municipal practices, systematize them, and also assess the possibility of their adaptation in Russian reality.
In this study, using the example of US municipalities, an assessment was made of the areas for implementing best municipal practices in this country. The article shows the range and variety of areas of implemented best practices in the field of municipal management, highlighting their main groups. The possibilities of adapting foreign experience in the conditions of Russian reality are determined.
The article used general scientific research methods. In order to visually present the research results, a data visualization method and a keyword cloud were used. The theoretical basis of the study is based on scientific works of both foreign and domestic scientists dedicated to the area under study. The empirical basis for the study is open sources of municipal statistics, as well as the official information portal — the website of the state of New Jersey, USA.
It is concluded that the best municipal practices of the USA and Russia have similarities in determining priorities in their implementation — these are social protection and the interests of citizens. It is proposed to use differences in management systems and the implementation of municipal practices as potentially possible directions for the development of municipal management experience. Along with this, an important role is played by the high-quality exchange of experience and the involvement of proactive citizens and social groups in resolving issues of local importance that directly affect their interests.
Dynamics of the population's attitude towards immigrants: a regional aspect
Authors: Kalachina Olga
Published: March 2024

The article analyzes the dynamics of perception of the migration situation by the host population in the Republic of Mordovia. Public opinion is being monitored on potential problems created by immigrants when moving to the region, on their impact on ethno-confessional relations and the social and criminogenic situation.
The empirical base included the results of annual regional sociological studies of the ethno-confessional and migration situation conducted in the period 2021–2023. The sociological survey was conducted in accordance with the Methodological Recommendations for Conducting Sociological Research in the subjects of the Russian Federation proposed by the Federal Agency for Nationalities of the Russian Federation (FADN of Russia). This methodology makes it possible to carry out sociological monitoring of key indicators of the state of ethno-confessional relations and migration processes in the Russian Federation. The volume of the sample population was n = 700 people, the representative features were gender, age, place of residence and nationality. As a tool for collecting primary information, a quantitative method was used — an individual face-to-face interview at the respondent's place of residence using a paper questionnaire (PAPI).
It was revealed that in Mordovia, the attitude towards immigrants is gradually changing: the share of the population concerned about the problems of competition in the labor market, the deterioration of ethno-confessional relations, experiencing anxiety from the presence of migrant workers is decreasing. It is determined that the presence of immigrants in the region does not provoke an aggravation of ethnic conflicts and the idea of restricting/reducing the entry of migrants is becoming less popular.
The author concludes that the attitude of the receiving population to immigrants is determined by the level of socio-economic development of the region.
Economic security of credit organizations in the context of growing digital risks
Authors: Odintsov Vladislav
Published: March 2024

This article partially discusses the results of the author's dissertation research. The subject of study of this article is the methods of measuring and managing risks associated with digitalization in the context of improving economic and information security of the bank. The digital transformation of commercial banks involves not only updating technology, but also rethinking banking and creating a more customer-centric experience based on digitalization tools. By embracing digital transformation, banks can optimize operations, improve security and provide their customers with the services they need when and where they need them. The study of existing features of commercial banks' business processes, changing digital space and risks allowed the author to establish the relationship between economic security, information security and digital risks. The role of the digital risk management subsystem was identified and the types of digital risks of the bank were studied. The study of the possibilities of applying the existing methodologies for assessing the risks of a credit organization to the changing external environment and digital space surrounding modern banks has shown that for the most part they are applicable to risk assessment in the implementation of adaptation. The practice of risk management in banks requires identification and classification of digital risks, strategies to mitigate the identified risks adapted to the digital space. The author's methodology for assessing and minimizing the digital risks of a credit institution is proposed, which makes it possible to determine the type of digital risk on the basis of input and output variables and develop a possible managerial decision to minimize the risk. Based on the approbation, the author identifies digital risks for three Russian banks with the largest digital presence in the Russian banking sector.
