Authors: Bogdanova Diana , Kotelnikov Vitaly , Yulamanova Adelina
Published: March 2023

An approach to personalized service rendering based on using affective computing technologies is described. The proposed approach consists of considering clients’ emotional states and their individual characteristics in the process of providing services. Rendering services is supplemented by the formalization stages of the client’s emotional state and emotional support. The paper considers online learning as the subject area of research. A general description of the online learning process is given. It is concluded that there is no correction of the learners’ emotional state during the lesson. The dependence of the learners’ knowledge level on their emotional state is revealed. A review of existing approaches to considering learners’ emotional states in the process of online learning is given. Learners’ specific behaviour during the lesson is analysed. The features of academic emotions are also considered. The objective is set to increase the online learning effectiveness by taking into account learners’ emotional states and their individual characteristics and by providing emotional support in the learning process. An approach is proposed to formalise learners’ emotional states based on using facial muscle movements as a universal way of recognizing emotions. The stages of recognizing learners’ emotions during the lesson are also described in detail. The task is set to select emotional support based on the learners’ classification according to their emotional state and their individual characteristics using the nearest neighbour method.
Is learning mathematics still creative and enjoyable during the COVID-19 pandemic?
Authors: Casinillo Leomarich
Published: March 2023

Creativity in learning is an enjoyable experience for most students who are studying mathematics. However, when the COVID-19 pandemic brought unprecedented experiences to students, learning mathematics is questionably creative and enjoyable nowadays. This study intends to measure the level of creativity and how enjoyable is learning mathematics amidst the pandemic. The study develops statistical models to capture the different factors that significantly influence the students' creativity and enjoyable experience in learning mathematics. A selected secondary data from the existing study was utilized and analyzed through some descriptive measures and a regression method as well as its diagnostics.  Results revealed that the mean perception scores (scale of 1 to 10) for the level of creativity and enjoyment are 5.27 and 5.17, respectively. This implies that there is only moderate creativity and enjoyment in learning mathematics amidst the pandemic. Findings showed that the predictors of students' level of creativity in learning mathematics are "synchronous learning modality", "learning environment" and "health aspect". In addition, it is revealed that "age", "learning environment", and "health aspect" are significant predictors of students' level of enjoyment. Thus, teachers must maintain a lively and motivating learning environment for students by giving them interesting and enjoyable mathematics learning activities. Furthermore, teachers and students are advised to do physical exercise and maintain a good diet to become healthy amidst the pandemic.

Authors: Febriyanti Asri , Zuliarni Zuliarni , Bentri Alwen , Novrianti Novrianti
Published: March 2023

The background for the development of the Android-assisted E-LKPD was that the science practicum activities in the laboratory could not be carried out on time because they had to take turns with other classes, and the practicum tools were not qualified to support science learning. Teachers use teaching materials such as textbooks and LKS. Textbooks only contain text and pictures, cannot contain videos and animations that support it so that students do not understand the material and have difficulty relating learning to everyday life. In science learning itself, there are many discussions that require animation, if you are only guided by printed books, what is conveyed will not be realized. The purpose of this study was to produce valid and practical android-assisted E-LKPD in Class VIII science subjects in junior high schools. The type of development used is Research and Development (R&D). The development model used in this study uses the model proposed by Borg and Gall up to 5 stages of development. The data obtained will be analyzed using a Likert scale. The development of the Android-assisted E-LKPD was assessed by 2 media validators, namely lecturers from the Department of Curriculum and Educational Technology and material validators, namely Science Subject Teachers at SMPN 3 Pariaman. The practicality assessment was carried out by 15 class VIII students of SMPN 3 Pariaman. The product validity test results for the media aspect are categorized as "Valid" by obtaining an average score of 4 from validator I and 4.93 from Validator II. The results of the validity assessment for material aspects are categorized as "Very Valid" by obtaining an average score of 4.89. The practicality test results obtained obtained an average value of 4.68 in the category of "Very Practical". Thus the development of Android-assisted E-LKPD in science subjects for grade VIII in junior high schools is appropriate to be used as a learning medium and to support the learning process as well as a learning resource for students.

Published: March 2023

The application of chaos theory in economics is associated with an increasing level of uncertainty and external shocks faced by economic systems. This article reviews and systematizes the approaches to the use of chaos theory in economic research. To this end, we discuss the concept of chaos and its relevance; and identify those areas of research for which the application of chaos theory holds most promise. The research methodo­logy comprises methods of system-functional and system-historical analysis. These methods are used to analyze the content of publications devoted to the application of chaos theory to study price fluctuations in individual markets, the behaviour of firms in the conditions of imperfect competition, the analysis of uncertainty of consumer behaviour, as well as cyclical economic development and disequilibrium associated with the ba­lance of unemployment and inflation and geopolitical tensions. The study draws the distinction between the concepts of synergetics and chaos theory. It is shown that although these two research areas are related, they have a different focus of application. The study also identifies some common patterns in the use of chaos theory tools for economic research: at the first stage, elements of chaos, fractals and nonlinearity in the series of economic data are identified; at the second stage, researchers try to explain certain events by using the tools of chaos theory; and at the third stage, chaos theory is used to model and subsequently predict short-term and long-term trends. Chaos theory expands the mathematical apparatus of economic research, allowing researchers to access tools from the field of physics and other natural sciences, which enhances interdisciplinary synthesis.

A time-varying speed of light and implications for the evolution of the universe, Part I: Establishing a variable light speed model
Authors: Bakalian Faez
Published: March 2023

A theoretical framework is developed to explain the observed cosmological redshifts in terms of a static universe and time-varying properties of the speed of light. It is found that the observed wavelength and frequency of light from distant sources differs from that of the laboratory frame owing to a combination of spatial and spectral effects (i.e. the propagation of light through space and time-varying properties of atomic emission spectra, respectively). Interactions of photons with a time-varying vacuum field results in the variation of the speed of light and other fundamental constants which also leads to changes in the electronic transition properties of atoms. Quasar redshift data are used to constrain model parameters and to derive a nonlinear differential equation for the speed of light. Solutions are presented for the time dependence of c(t), d(t) and z(t). Close agreement is found between the observation data and the redshift-distance modulus predictions of the variable light speed model.

This paper will examine to what extent does dopaminergic activity in the human brain differ in romantic love and substance addiction? The hypothesis proposed is that dopaminergic activity differs between romantic love and substance addiction in the level of this activity at the three different stages, reflecting differing cognitive-emotional experiences. We propose that the similarities between these processes lie in the fundamental nature of dopamine for the cognitive and emotional processes involved.

A Modal Ontological Argument for the Existence of an Imperfect God.
Authors: Blaber Richard Michael
Published: March 2023

This paper will present a modal ontological argument for an imperfect God, arguing that God is necessary, is the creator of the Universe, is omnipotent and omniscient, but is not omnibenevolent. It will dispute J.N. Findlay’s 1948 contention that God must be a being worthy of worship, and all attempts to define God as morally perfect. It will thus account for the coexistence of an omnipotent creator with natural and moral evil.

Carlson's Trophic State Index for the Assessment of Trophic state of Phewa, Begnas and Rupa Lakes in Kaski district, Nepal
Authors: Shrestha Shristi , Malla Rabin
Published: March 2023

Eutrophication of wetlands has been considered as a global level environmental problem due to wide range of environmental impacts caused by it. All the lake bodies are subjected to natural eutrophication process but anthropogenic activities like excessive utilization of inorganic fertilizers containing phosphorus and nitrogen in the farmlands which ultimately reach to water bodies through runoff during rainfall further maximizes the eutrophication. The research was conducted to find the trophic state of Lake Phewa, Lake Begnas and Lake Rupa which are three major lakes of Lake Clusters of Pokhara Valley, a Ramsar listed wetland from mid-hills of Nepal. Trophic state of lakes were classified on the basis of Carlson’s Trophic State Index. This index was calculated with the measurement of Secchi depth, Chlorophyll-a, and Total Phosphorus using standard methods. Study revealed that all three lakes were mesotrophic in both pre-monsoon and monsoon season. Lake Rupa had the highest Carlson Trophic State Index (CTSI) and Lake Begnas had lowest CTSI in both the season. Development of lake from oligotrophic to eutrophic state is a natural and gradual process and hence these lakes have increased chances of being eutrophic naturally along with natural process being crucially altered by cultural eutrophication which shortens the life expectancy of the affected aquatic body. Suitable conservation measures are needed to reduce organic load from lake to prevent from being further degraded.

Distance Learning at the Level of Primary Education: Parents’ Opinions and Reflections
Authors: Wysocka-Narewska Marzena
Published: March 2023

Distance learning is a type of instruction between a teacher and students separated by a physical distance where communication takes place through mediated information encompassing one or more technological media. In other words, the instruction participants stay in different places, yet take part in the same learning activities sequenced, paced and controlled by the teacher using new technologies. The paper aims to show the advantages and disadvantages of distance education during the COVID-19 lockdown at the primary level, the emphasis being placed upon, among others, the teacher–student and student–student relationships, the infrastructure and skills required for a lesson, as well as some “food for thought” in the form of possible changes and areas of improvement to be introduced suggested by the sample. The data comes from the questionnaire distributed among 60 parents of first graders. This age group is believed to be extremely demanding and difficult to teach, mainly due to the literacy and numeracy skills included in the core curriculum, falling on the onset of the first grade in a primary school.
Żydowski ubój rytualny w Polsce – okrucieństwo czy humanitarne traktowanie zwierzęcia?
Authors: Skoczykłoda Paweł T.
Published: March 2023

Spór o ubój rytualny toczy się od lat, nie tylko w polskim dyskursie. Powszechnie wskazuje się, że praktyka ta jest nieetyczna i nieludzka. Jednak ten spór zupełnie nieuwzględnia żydowskiego podejście do tej kwestii. Żydzi uważają, że jest to najbardziej humanitarna metoda uboju zwierząt i została nakazana przez Boga dla ich ochrony od cierpienia. Podkreślają, że prawo Boże nie może ulec zmianie. Celem artykułu jest wykazanie, że żydowski ubój rytualny jest praktyką etyczną i dopuszczalną na mocy prawa pozytywnego w Polsce. Autor zwraca również uwagę, że dyskusja o dopuszczalności takiego uboju opiera się głównie na argumentach ekonomicznych. W tekście omówiono, czym jest szechita, a następnie, w jaki sposób reguły Tory chronią zwierzęta przed cierpieniem. Ukazuje on również aktualny stan prawny dotyczący uboju rytualnego, przekonania Polaków na ten temat, a także społeczną naukę Kościoła katolickiego dotyczącą rzezi religijnej.

Celem artykułu jest analiza motywu cielesności w tomiku poetyckim  młodej autorki Anny Adamowicz Animalia. W tekście stosuję metodologię opracowaną na gruncie zookrytyki, subdyscypliny Animal Studies. Wiersze Adamowicz wyrażają niezgodę na traktowanie nie-ludzkiej cielesności jako gorszej, oraz redukowania jej do bezwartościowego, pasywnego „mięsa”. W swojej twórczości Adamowicz dokonuje destrukcji antropocentrycznej hierarchii oraz pokazuje tragiczne konsekwencje ludzkiej działalności dla całości świata zwierzęcego. Autorka porusza także tematykę nieodwracalnych zmian klimatycznych, które posiadają wpływ na świat zwierząt nie-ludzkich.
Identification—Categorizing Living Creatures and Human Cultural Practices

A widely publicized IPBES report from 2019 warns that close to one million species currently on Earth will soon be extinct. In addition to debates in the media and among professionals about the factual value of that number, a larger problem remains—we do not know how many species are on Earth. According to extensive studies and statistical modelling, there are at least six million species in existence that have not yet been described. The term “described species” means that the animal or plant has received a unique scientific name that confirms its identity and relation to other organisms. A question thus remains about how we value species that are not yet named, known, or discovered. The most common practice is to value only creatures that are directly related to human existence, yet there is growing concern that we should value animals for the sake of their existence, for their intrinsic value. In this respect, the anthropocentric concepts of “pest” and “invasive species” need to be re-considered.

Background:

Candidemia represents a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in children. We examined the epidemiology and associated risk factors of candidemia at a Canadian tertiary care paediatric hospital over an 11-year period.

Methods:

A retrospective chart review was conducted on children with positive blood culture for Candida species between January 1, 2007 and December 31, 2018. Patient demographics, previously described candidemia risk factors, Candida species, follow-up investigations, interventions, and outcome data were included in the analysis.

Results:

Sixty-one candidemia episodes were reported with an overall incidence rate of 5.1 cases per 10,000 patient admissions. Of the 66 species identified, the most common was Candida albicans (53%, 35), followed by Candida parapsilosis (18%, 12), and Candida glabrata (8%, 5). Mixed candidemia was noted in 8% (5/61) of episodes. The most common risk factors included presence of central venous catheter (95%, 58/61) and receipt of antibiotics in the last 30 days (92%, 56/61). Majority of patients received abdominal imaging (89%, 54/61), ophthalmology consult (84%, 51/61), and echocardiogram (70%, 43/61), regardless of age. Line removal was performed in 81% (47/58) of cases. Evidence of disseminated fungal disease on abdominal imaging was observed in 11% (6/54) of patients, all in non-neonates but with risk factors including immunosuppression and gastrointestinal abnormalities. The overall 30-day case fatality rate was 8% (5/61).

Conclusions:

C. albicans was the most commonly isolated species. Disseminated candidiasis was demonstrated mainly on abdominal imaging in patients with relevant risk factors, including immunosuppression and gastrointestinal abnormalities.

СHF is a chronic progressive disease. Today in the world there are approximately 64 million patients with CHF. The disease is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. CHF is the leading cause of hospital admissions among people over 65 years of age, placing a significant burden on the health care system and economic burden. Experts identify several main categories of heart failure, using the LVEF assessment as an indicator of heart contractility: heart failure with low EF (LVEF ≤ 40%), HF with moderately reduced EF (LVEF 41-49%) and HF with preserved EF (LVEF ≥ 50%). Approximately half of all patients with CHF have HFrEF or HFpEF, a population of patients for whom a limited set of therapeutic options are currently available. Тhanks to effect on prognosis and symptoms in patients  with CHF with low EF (LVEF ≤ 40%), a favorable safety profile and ease of use (reception 1 time / day and no dose titration necessary), dapagliflozin may be considered as an addition to the standard therapy to reduce the severity of symptoms, improve the prognosis of survival incidence and reduction in the number of future hospitalizations in connection with CHF.

This article outlines the main provisions of the program, methodology, description of the object of experimental studies and construction of a physical model of the jib crane rotation mechanism.

A real QTZ 80 crane has been chosen for the study, which differs from the laboratory installation (physical model) of the jib crane rotation mechanism by structural, power and energy parameters, for this reason, experimental studies used physical modeling, which usually changes the scale and leaves the physical nature of phenomena. Therefore, similarity theory is used to determine the characteristics of the physical model.

A physical model (laboratory unit) of the jib crane rotation mechanism was designed to conduct experimental studies on the similarity theory. This model is prepared for experimental studies of the dynamics of the rotation mechanism during the start-up process. To determine the similarity criteria, equations of motion were used that reflect the operation of the jib crane rotation mechanism, namely the three-mass dynamic model of the rotation mechanism, which is a system of three second-order differential equations.

Using the obtained ratios of similarity criteria, the numerical values of the similarity coefficients of the real rotation mechanism of the jib crane and its physical model are determined.

Based on the parameters obtained, a physical model of a full-scale jib crane rotation mechanism was constructed.

The results obtained in this study can be further used to refine and improve existing engineering methods for calculating the mechanisms of rotation of cranes, both at the stages of their design/construction, and in real operation.
