IMPACT OF COVID AND CHALLENGES IN ACADEMIA WITH THE REFERENCE TO TEACHERS’ JOB SATISFACTION
Authors:   Global College International, Ghimire Binod
Published: May 2022

The paper aims to clarify the relationship between flexible working arrangement factors and employees’ job satisfaction. It aims to expand the domain of FWA practices among academia incorporating teachers considering job satisfaction as a crucial part of human resource management aspect. This research was based on the impact of flexible work arrangement factors and job satisfaction among 470 teachers who were engaged in their work according to the flexible work arrangement practices during COVID 19. Such engagement might be in job either electronically or physically changing the shift or time as per necessity. It provides empirical insights about how change is observed by the adaptation of flexible work arrangement upon satisfaction. Furthermore, it is found helpful to maintain satisfaction with the balance between work life and personal life. With the evidences, this paper finally contributes and implies academic institutions to consider their experience of FWA practices during COVID 19 and accordingly should revisit and observe the best flexible working pattern. However, such FWA should not mean deregulation, and the issue of flexibility must be treated as work- procedure, where the satisfaction and well-being of the employees are placed at the center.

Authors:   Global College International, Goet Joginder
Published: May 2022

The goal of this research is to examine the impact of personal and related factors on higher education students’ financial planning and behavior. The convenience sample approach was used to obtain data from 382 respondents using a well-structured questionnaire. To diagnose the data acquired, correlation and regression analysis were performed. The findings demonstrated that family background (FB), family support (FS), and financial socialization (FSO) all had a substantial impact on financial planning for students in higher education. Furthermore, family history has the greatest influence on financial planning, whereas financial socialization has the least impact. The practical consequences are clear for students in higher education, and they aid in good financial planning. The article’s novelty comes in its assertion that, in order to attain successful financial planning tactics, better influencing variables must be implemented.

Published: May 2022

“Demokrasi” kavramı üzerine tartışmalar yüzyıllardır sürmektedir. Kesin bir tanıma varılamamakla birlikte, eşitlik, özgürlük, halk egemenliği, çoğulculuk gibi belirli değerler demokrasi çerçevesinde benimsenmektedir. Bu değerleri benimsemek demokrasinin varlığı ve geleceği için gerekmektedir. Bu değerlerin kazanılmasının bir yolu da eğitimden geçmektedir ve bu çalışmanın yapılmasının asıl sebebi de tam bu noktada kendisine yer bulmaktadır. Çalışmada demokrasinin tanımı eğitim kavramıyla paralel şekilde ele alınarak Platon, Seymour Martin Lipset, Maurice Duverger gibi düşünürlerin demokrasi-eğitim bağlantısı üzerine söylemlerine ve fikirlerine yer verilmektedir. Bu yapılırken sadece Kıta Avrupası’nın düşünürlerinin sentezlerini incelemekle beraber, Amerika’da yapılmış olan araştırmalardan çıkan sonuçların bu ilişkiye dair sunmuş olduğu yorumlara da değinilmektedir. İkinci bölümde demokrasinin genel tanımı ile eğitimli bireyler ve toplumların demokratik süreçlere etkisi incelenmiştir. Üçüncü bölümde kimlerin yönetimde söz sahibi olması gerektiğini anlamak için eğitimli kişilerin yönetime etkisine değinilmiştir. Dördüncü bölümde ise eğitimin, demokratik yönetimler için yeterli yetiye sahip olup olmadığına ve nihayetinde demokrasiye vasıl olma noktasında eğitimin hem müspet hem olumsuz durumuna değinilmiştir.
EMEK PİYASASININ EN ALTINDAKİLER GÖÇMENLER: İSTANBUL’DA TÜRKİYELİ VE SURİYELİ ÇALIŞANLAR ARASINDAKİ ÜCRET AYRIMCILIĞI
Authors: ACUN Serdar , KAHVECİ Mustafa
Published: May 2022

Göçmen emeği son yıllarda Türkiye emek piyasasında çok fazla görünür hale geldi. Özellikle sayıları 3,6 milyona yaklaşan Suriyeli göçmenler, Türkiye’nin bazı illerinde emek piyasasının önemli parçasıdır. Genellikle Türkiye emek piyasasında önemli yer edinen göçmenler içinde bulundukları yaşam koşulları nedeniyle kayıt dışında, güvencesiz ve düşük ücretli olarak istihdam edilmektedir. Bu çalışma Türkiye’nin en fazla göçmene ev sahipliği yapan şehri İstanbul’da Suriyeli göçmenler ile Türkiyeli çalışanlar arasındaki ücret ayrımcılığı konusu ele alınmıştır. Çalışmada Türkiyeli ve Suriyeli emekçilerin arasındaki ücret farklılığına etki eden cinsiyet, eğitim ve çalışma süresinin etkileri analiz edilmiştir. Çalışma sonucunda Suriyeli göçmenlerin Türkiye emek piyasasında ücret ayrımcılığına uğradığı sonucuna ulaşılmıştır.
AKADEMİSYEN VE ÖĞRENCİLERİN ZOOM YORGUNLUĞUNUN İNCELENMESİ: İSTANBUL ÖRNEĞİ
Authors: KANTAS YİLMAZ Fatma , ÇAPAR Haşim
Published: May 2022

Korona virüs pandemisi ile ortaya çıkan “Zoom Yorgunluğu”, göz rahatsızlıkları, fiziksel inaktivite, asosyallik ve kullanıcılardaki bilişsel yükün artması gibi sorunları da beraberinde getirmiştir. Zoom yorgunluğunun, çevrimiçi araçlar ile iş, toplantı veya eğitim gibi faaliyetleri sürdürenler arasında daha yaygın olduğu ifade edilmektedir. Bu durum, özellikle de uzaktan eğitime geçen akademisyen ve öğrencilerin maruz kaldığı “zoom yorgunluğu” fenomenini incelemeyi önemli kılmaktadır. Bu sebeple, akademisyen ve doktora öğrencilerinin zoom yorgunluğunun incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Tanımlayıcı, kesitsel ve nicel araştırma alt türlerinden biri olan nedensel karşılaştırma tipinin kullanıldığı bu çalışma, İstanbul ilinde yer alan bir devlet ve bir vakıf üniversitesinin sağlık bilimleri fakültesinde akademisyen ve doktora öğrencisi olan 201 kişi ile yapılmıştır. Araştırmanın akademisyen ve doktora öğrencileri ile yapılmasının sebebi, bu grubun zoom yorgunluğunun kaynağı olan çevrimiçi araçları sıklıkla kullanmasıdır. Çalışma verileri, 12.07.2021 ile 03.09.2021 tarihleri arasında çevrimiçi olarak toplanmıştır. Verilerin analizi için iki grup için Bağımsız Örneklem t-Testi, ikiden fazla grup için Tek Yönlü Varyans Analizi kullanılmıştır. Online toplantılara katılım sıklığı arttıkça akademisyen ve doktora öğrencilerinin genel zoom yorgunluğunun arttığı, buna karşın göz yorgunluğu ve motivasyonel yorgunluğunun ise, değişmediği tespit edilmiştir. Online toplantıların oturum süresi arttıkça göz yorgunluğu hariç, genel yorgunluk, sosyal yorgunluk, motivasyonel yorgunluk, duygusal yorgunluk ve zoom yorgunluğu istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir şekilde artmaktadır. Eğitim gibi önemli bir işlevin sürekliliği önemli olmak ile birlikte bu işlevin yerine getirileceği yerin online platformlar olmadığı ya da bu platformların az kullanılması gerektiği, kullanılsa dahi yüz yüze olacak uygulamalar ile birlikte hibrit modele göre verilmesi önerilmektedir.
TÜKETİCİ DAVRANIŞLARI AÇISINDAN KOMPULSİF SATIN ALMA DAVRANIŞINA YÖNELİK KAVRAMSAL BİR ÇALIŞMA
Authors: YILDIRIM Yusuf Ozan , PİRTİNİ Serdar
Published: May 2022

Kompulsif satın alma davranışının incelendiği ilk çalışmalara göre patolojik olarak aşırı harcama eğilimi olarak psikiyatrik açıdan hastalık olarak tanımlandığı görülmektedir. Zaman içerisinde davranışın psikolojik açıdan incelenmesinin ardından ise çeşitli bozukluklardan kaynaklandığı açıklanmaktadır. 1980’lerin sonlarına doğru ise kompulsif satın alma davranışının pazarlamaya konu olması ile birlikte tüketici davranışları açısından kompulsif satın alma davranışı tekrarlı, aşırı ve gereksiz satın almalar olarak tanımlanmakta olup herhangi bir bireyde gözlemlenebileceği açıklanmaktadır. Kompulsif satın alma davranışının tüketici davranışları açısından incelendiği bu araştırmada öncelikle 1985-2021 yılları arasında yayınlanan bilimsel makaleler incelenerek tüketici davranışlarına yönelik yayınlanan makaleler türlerine göre teorik ve uygulamalı olarak sınıflandırılmıştır. Sonrasında ise tüketici davranışları perspektifinde kompulsif satın alma davranışı ile birlikte çalışılan değişkenler özetlenmiş ve yorumlanmıştır. Bu durumun temel amacı ise bir yandan akademik yayınların ilerlemesi açısından literatürün genelini tek elde toplamak iken öte yandan konu ile birlikte çalışılan değişkenlerin özetlenmesi sonrası gelecek araştırmalara yön göstermektir. Sonuç olarak araştırmanın belirlenen amacına yönelik elde edilen sonuçlar incelendiğinde tüketici davranışları açısından kompulsif satın alma davranışının genel olarak dürtüsellik, obsesyon, anksiyete, materyalizm, benlik saygısı gibi değişkenler ile yaygın şekilde çalışıldığı görülmektedir. Öte yandan tüketici davranışları açısından önemli bir konuma sahip olan kültür ve finansal değişkenler ise kompulsif satın alma davranışı açısından yeterli düzeyde çalışılmadığı görülmektedir.
KÜRESEL SALGIN (COVİD-19) SÜRECİ VE YEREL YÖNETİMLERİN HİZMET SUNUMUNDA YAPISAL VE İŞLEVSEL DEĞİŞİMLER
Authors: BİMAY Muzaffer , KAYPAK Şafak
Published: May 2022

2019 yılının sonlarında Çin’de ortaya çıkan ve 2020 yılının başlarından itibaren tüm dünyayı olduğu gibi Türkiye’yi de etkileyen COVID-19 salgını, toplumsal yapıyı ve bireylerin yaşam kalitesini önemli ölçüde etkilemiştir. Özellikle kentlerde kamu hizmetlerinin sunumunda birtakım yapısal ve işlevsel dönüşümlere neden olmuştur. Bu bağlamda küresel salgınla mücadele; yerel, ulusal ve uluslararası işbirliklerine dayanan geniş bir yelpazede yürütülmüştür. Bu çalışmanın amacı, COVID-19 salgını sürecinde yerel yönetimlerin kentsel faaliyetleri kapsamında sürdürdükleri hizmetlerde meydana gelen yapısal ve işlevsel değişimleri tespit etmektir. Çalışma literatür taraması yöntemiyle, güncel veriler ve kaynaklar taranarak üç bölüm halinde kurgulanmıştır. Çalışmada, COVID-19 salgını ile mücadelede yerel yönetimlerin ve özellikle belediyelerin başlangıçta temel ihtiyaçların karşılanmasına yönelik tedbirlere öncelik verdikleri, sonrasında koruyucu ve önleyici tedbirler aldıkları, sosyal hizmetler sundukları, ancak bu hizmetlerin yetki, görev ve sorumlulukları açısından sınırlı kaldığı ve farklı uygulamaları hayata geçirdikleri tespit edilmiştir. Bunun en önemli nedenleri arasında salgın yönetimine ilişkin mevzuatın yetersiz olması ve salgını önleme konusunda uygulanan politikaların desentralizasyona dayanmamasıdır. Dolayısıyla yerel yönetimlerin geri plana itildiği bu süreçte merkezi yönetimin daha etkin olduğu anlaşılmaktadır. Bu bağlamda yapılan genel değerlendirmede, küresel salgınlarla mücadelede merkezi yönetimin yerel yönetimlerle iş birliği içerisinde süreci yönetmeleri ve kentsel yaşam alanlarında yürütülebilecek kamu hizmetlerine ilişkin yetkilerin büyük oranda yerel yönetimlere devredilmesi gerektiği ayrıca belirtilmiştir.

Authors: AYDIN Mehmet Sadık , SAYANER Kübra
Published: May 2022

Devletin ekonomideki rolü ile ilgili tartışmalar geçmişten günümüze süregelmektedir. Özellikle 1929 krizi ile müdahaleci devlet yaklaşımının benimsenmesi ile devletin ekonomideki rolü artmıştır. Kamusal finansman kaynakları arasında gösterilen borçlanma ile ilgili düşünceler önceki dönemlerde olumsuz kabul edilirken, 1929 krizi sonrasında çeşitli gerekçelerle başvurulabilecek kaynaklar arasında kabul edilmiştir. Bir maliye politikası aracı olarak kabul edilen kamu borçlanması aracılığıyla devletin birçok ekonomik fonksiyonun gerçekleştirilmesi beklenmektedir. Bu çalışmada kamu borçlanmasının teorik çerçevesi çizilerek, borçlanma ile ilgili kavramlar açıklanmakta borçlanma türleri ve ekonomik etkileri anlatılmaktadır. Ardından 1980 sonrası dönemde Türkiye’de kamu borçlanmasının gelişimi ilgili kurumların verileri kullanılarak analiz edilmektedir. Çalışmada literatür taraması yapılacak olup veri analizi yöntemi benimsenmektedir. Çalışma ile borçlanma konusunun ekonomik analizinin yapılarak politika yapıcılara yol gösterici öneriler sunulması ve alanda çalışma yapmayı düşünen araştırmacılar açısından literatür oluşturulması amaçlanmaktadır. Çalışma sonucunda; Türkiye’de borçlanma yaklaşımlarının dönemler bazında değişiklik gösterdiği, ekonomik açından olumsuz gelişmeler yaşanan dönemlerde borçlanma göstergelerinin olumsuz seyrettiği, özellikle 2000 sonrası dönemde mali disiplin sürecine geçişle birlikte borçlanma açısından olumlu gelişmelerin yaşandığı ve kamu borçlanması açısından OECD ortalamasının altında olunduğu bulgularına ulaşılmıştır.
Om Religiøse Følelser og deres Teologiske Værd
Authors: Andersen John Daniel L.
Published: May 2022

The purpose of this article is to give a constructive proposal of how to understand the role of Christian affections for theological reflection and work with systematic theology. The last decades have seen an increased interest within different academic disciplines, including theology, in the topic of emotions, feelings and affections, and their significance for human rationality. In a Norwegian theological context, the question of the significance of Christian affections is accentuated by the 250th anniversary of the revivalist and social reformer Hans Nielsen Hauge (1771-1824). Within Pentecostal theology, a consensus has emerged that Christian affections are necessary for right doctrine and right practice to be sustained coherently. However, more work to spell out their relationship in detail is needed. In the first part of the article, I will present a theological understanding of Christian affections, based on the work of Steven Land and Simeon Zahl, exemplified and illuminated by the historical testimonies of Hans Nielsen Hauge and the Thomas Ball Barratt. In the second part, I will give my constructive proposal where I employ «the somatic marker hypothesis» of Antonio Damasio to explain how Christian affections and their positive significance for theological reflection can be understood, in that the bodily conditioned emotional markings of mental images function more properly, which enables the theologian to make more rational choices in her theological work.
Zorunlu Göç Bağlamında Suriyeli Kadınların Ücretli İşgücüne Katılımında Toplumsal Cinsiyet Müzakeresi

Bu makalede, ücretli çalışan Suriyeli mülteci kadınların zorunlu göç sonrasında emek piyasasına katılımının toplumsal cinsiyet rolleri ile ilişkisi incelenmektedir. Mersin, İzmir ve Gaziantep’te 2019 yılında gerçekleştirilen çalışma, Suriye’den Türkiye’ye göç etmek zorunda kalan farklı sosyal ve etnik arka plandan 48 kadınla yapılan görüşmelere dayanmaktadır. Nitel araştırma yöntemleri kullanılan saha araştırması, Suriyeli mülteci kadınların ücretli işe girişlerinin hanenin geçimini sağlamak için mecburiyetten kaynaklandığını göstermiştir. Kadınların geleneksel rollerinin dışına çıkarak emek piyasasına girişleri, ev içinde ve dışında geleneksel toplumsal cinsiyet ilişkilerinin müzakere edilmesine de alan açmaktadır. Suriyeli kadınların ev dışı ücretli işe girişlerinde sosyal çevre baskısı, “aile onuru” ve toplumsal değerlerin sarsılacağı korkusu önemli bir gerilim hattı oluşturmaktadır. Bu çalışmanın bulgularına göre, iş yoluyla gelir elde etme, kadınlar için ev dışında tanınma, statülerinin iyileşmesi ve güçlenme beklentisi yaratsa da ücretli iş kadınların gündelik hayatlarında ek yükler getirmekte ve toplumsal cinsiyete dayalı yeni gerilim ve şiddet alanları ortaya çıkarmaktadır.
Barriers to Environmental Governance for Sustainable Urban Development
Authors: Kathambi Bessy Eva , Obiero Linda Maryanne
Published: May 2022

Cities globally are estimated to double their population by 2050 thereby increasing the necessity to underscore sustainability. Projections of economic growth, social equality, infrastructural development in urban centers and cities highlight the precept of environmental governance in attaining sustainable urban development. Untold impacts of unstructured urban development become barriers to environmental governance particularly on pillars of governance such as transparency and equity. Further, these barriers to environmental governance focus on institutional, financial and policy frameworks that have not been developed for sustainable urban development. The implied cost of urban planning and reduced urban personnel enhance barriers for environmental governance and sustainable urban development. The study utilized an exploratory research design which employed secondary data for analysis and desktop reviews on environmental governance and sustainable urban development for emerging cities globally and those in existence. Findings of the study illustrate the pivotal role of environmental governance for sustainable urban development with a keen focus on institutions, financial prudence and enhanced policy frameworks. The findings further underscore the necessity to amalgamate environmental governance and urban development with a view of fostering sustainability in an increasing urban and city population. Overcoming the barriers to environmental governance cements sustainability for urban centers and safeguards the future growth of sustainable cities.

Drip irrigation is regarded as one of the highly efficient methods that allow limited water resources to be properly utilized. The study has been conducted to perform the economic analysis of low and high head drip irrigation systems throughout the country based on data from 100 adopters of drip irrigation through a research & development project funded by the International Center for Agricultural Research in the Dry Areas (ICARDA-Pakistan)/United States Department of Agriculture (USDA). A field survey for the study was conducted in the year 2018 in all the provinces of Pakistan. The study revealed that technology is generally adopted by the farmers having diversified income sources and medium-sized land holdings i.e. ranging from 12.5 to 25 acres. System installation cost-shared 11 percent in low-head drip system of the annual production cost of fruits. While, it shared 29, 32, and 27 percent in case of a high-head system for grapes orchards, vegetables in tunnels, and open fields, respectively. Low-head drip irrigation is profitable for dates/ lemon orchards in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa with a benefit-cost ratio (BCR) of 1.27:1.00. It results in considerable profitability for grapes orchards with BCR of 1.73:1.00 and 1.32:100 in Punjab and Balochistan provinces, respectively. The low-head system is also beneficial for mixed fruit orchards in rain-fed Punjab with a BCR of 1.24:1.00. Similarly, for high-head systems, the benefit-cost ratio was the highest for grapes produced in rain-fed Punjab (2.62:1.00), followed by squash-gourd in irrigated Sindh (2.17:1.00) bitter-gourd in rain-fed Punjab (1.50:1.00) and okra in Sindh (1.22:1.00). However, low and high-head systems could not result in considerable returns for farmers in the case of mixed fruits in Balochistan and cucumber production in tunnels in Punjab province during the study year.

The COVID-19 pandemic has affected the behavior of individuals on a global scale. This study empirically analyzed the relationship between the stress and anxiety of the COVID-19 pandemic, hygiene and protection measures of young individuals, online medical information search and cyberchondria, and online medical support and assistance. Cross-sectional data obtained from 662 online surveys conducted with Atatürk University Communication Faculty students in 2021 were analyzed by Structural Equation Modeling. Study findings; The COVID-19 Pandemic revealed a positive and solid relationship (γ = 0.70; t = 14.26) between Anxiety and Stress and Personal Hygiene and Protection Measures. Furthermore, a positive and robust relationship was found between COVID-19 Pandemic Anxiety and Stress and Online Medical Information Searching on the Internet (γ = 0.42; t = 9.64), and it was also determined that there was a strong positive relationship between Online Medical Information Search on the Internet and Cyberchondria (γ = 0.72; t = 15.07). Finally, a positive and robust relationship was found between Medical Support and Expert Assistance and COVID-19 Pandemic Anxiety and Stress (γ = 0.45; t = 9.24).
The findings show that young individuals intensively use online medical information searches during the COVID-19 pandemic. This situation shows that this global epidemic has increased the behavior of cyberchondria and directed young individuals to seek medical support and personal protection measures. In addition, it is seen that people with high anxiety levels develop cyberchondria behaviors to protect themselves from the virus.

A Socio-Legal Study Of Reservation in India With Special Reference To Human Rights
Authors: Aarti
Published: May 2022

Reservation as a concept is very wide. Different people understand reservation to mean different things. One view of reservation as a generic concept is that reservation is an anti-poverty measure. There is a different view which says that reservations are merely providing a right of access and that it is not a right to redressal.1 In Constitution of India it states that Article 15 (which prohibits discrimination on the basis of religion, race, caste, sex, place of birth) and article 16 (equality of opportunity) to insert new clauses that allow the government to make “special provision for the advancement of any economically weaker sections of citizen” other than SC/STs and OBCs. In the international human rights context, the State may modify their obligations under international human rights treaties by entering reservations. Reservations are a particularly technical area of international law, but the study of this rather dry in the context of international human rights law is enlightening. According to the Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties VCLT, reservation is “a unilateral statement… made by a state, when signing, ratifying, accepting, approving or acceding to a treaty, where, it purports to exclude or modify the legal effect of certain provisions of the treaty. The aim of a reservation is to limit a state‟s obligations under a particular treaty. International Law is not formalistic „general political statement‟ or a „declaration of interpretation‟. States have availed themselves broadly of the possibility of reservations, both quantitatively and qualitatively. There is no doubt that the reservation is problematic for international human rights law. Human rights are clearly more of a „package‟ that most international normative instrument. Reservations also create problems legal certainty, making it difficult for individuals to ascertain the exact scope of the rights they have been guaranteed. In fact, international human rights law has also evolved specific notions of what reservations are permissible, who may decide on their permissibility, and what consequences flow from reservations.

Human is the best creation of God above all other creations and without having proper laws or human rights, it is impossible for humans to live on this Earth. Senior citizens are also the part of our human society but inspite of so many laws and human rights they still gets exploit in one or the other way sometimes by their children or by their grandchildren or at public places or any other local places. Why it is so happening? Why they are being treated on a bad note as burden on our society? Senior citizens also have right to equality and personal liberty like other human beings but according to some minds in Indian society, the disrespect, the loneliness or the depression they faced are all the normal and general problems faced by them in this age-group. But in true it is not like that. They are those problems which are given to them by the society and not by the nature.
Liability of Internet Service Providers Across Various Countries: An Overview
Authors: Ms. Poonam Pant,  , Ms. Bhumika Sharma
Published: May 2022

The role of I.S.P. or Intermediary is very important for effective utilization of information technology. The liability of Intermediary or I.S.P. has gain immense importance at international level. Various countries have defined the liability of I.S.P. either in the form of copyright infringement or for the infringement of information technology. Australia was the first country to enact the legislation relating to the liability aspect of I.S.P. in the form of Copyright Act, 1968 making I.S.P. liable to disable the access to online services hosted outside Australia. Some safe harbors were also provided for I.S.P. as part of the Australia - United States Free Trade Agreement. The US provides for the liability of ISP in the form of Communications Decency Act, 1996, Digital Millennium Copyright Act,1998. Title II of the D.M.C.A. specifically deals with the issue of I.S.P. liability and also provides for the penalties for unauthorized access to a copyright work. As regarding the legislations of Canada, it does not specifically defines the liability of I.S.P., instead it provides safe harbor for those ISP’s providing any means for Internet access. I.S.P.’s are also protected for copyright infringement in Canada. In Singapore the liability of I.S.P. is regulated by the Internet class license and Internet code of Practice which requires the I.S.P. to abide by the conditions of license. I.S.P.’s are also restricted to make public access of those websites which contain offensive content harmful to national interest. Japan’s Copyright Act, 1970, The Provider Liability Limitation Law 2002 protects the I.S.P. against any kind of liability for Copyright infringement. UK enacted two legislations in form of Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988 Digital Economy Act 2010 which imposes the obligations on ISP to notify the infringement to its subscribers, also liable to take technical measures to terminate the Internet services after reporting of infringement.

В работе представлены результаты проверки жизнеспособности и активности хлебопекарных и винных дрожжей, хранящихся разными способами в коллекции научно-производственного Центра микробиологии и вирусологии. Все исследуемые штаммы хлебопекарных дрожжей, за исключением Schizosaccharomyces pombe, в разной степени сохранили свою активность после длительного хранения. Наибольшая подъемная сила наблюдалась у культур Saccharomyces cerevisiaeРаса Щелковская и Saccharomyces cerevisiaeРаса «Сочи Б» при хранении под минеральным маслом. Из всех видов хранения наилучшим для винных дрожжей являются методы пересева и хранения в 10% растворе глицерина при низких температурах. При этих способах хранения сохраняются высокая жизнеспособность и бродильная активность. При хранении под минеральным маслом активность дрожжей снижается.

The article presents the results of testing the viability and activity of baker's and wine yeast stored in various ways in the collection of the Research and Production Center of Microbiology and Virology. All observed strains of baker's yeast except of Schizosaccharomyces pombe, retained their activity to varying degrees after long-term preservation. The highest lifting force was observed in cultures of Saccharomyces cerevisiae Rasa Schelkovskaya and Saccharomyces cerevisiae Rasa «Sochi B» when preserved with mineral oil. From the all preservation methods, the best one for wine yeast is subculture and storage in a 10% glycerol solution at low temperatures. With these preservation methods, high viability and fermentation activity are maintained. When stored with mineral oil, yeast activity is reduced.

This study aims to evaluate the impact of COVID-19 coronavirus on employees’ psychological well-being; to explore whether socio-demographic characteristics of employees predict the negative effect of the pandemic on their well-being; to analyze factors (level of trust in the official and informal sources of information, expectations and concerns, coping activities and emotional states) associated with such negative effect. A total of 1.937 completed online surveys were gathered from May 11–June 7, 2020. After excluding participants whose psychological well-being subjectively was not affected by COVID-19 outbreak, the overall sample was divided into high (374 employees) and low-affected (762 employees) groups. Statistically significant differences between emotional states, concerns and coping activities of participants from high- and low-affected groups were found. The high intensity of the COVID-19 outbreak’s influence on employees’ psychological well-being has positive correlations with respondents’ financial circumstances, negative emotional states (tension, stress, anxiety, and depression symptoms), concerns and expectations regarding work, financial complications, health, and social issues. It also positively correlates with such coping activities as seeking support from a professional psychotherapist or psychologist.

There are numerous expert systems that have been designed to diagnose the severity of Asthma, infect asthma is a chronic lung disorder of with the number of suffers is still estimated only. It has previously been estimated that prevalence of asthma in India is about 30 million patients with prevalence in children, young and adult. Results of various studies shows that asthma is usually under-diagnosed in developing countries. Asthma is a chronic lung disease that blocks the airways that carries air from the lungs. This blockage in the airways causes inflammations which make the patient susceptible to irritations and allergies. The purpose of this work is to design a fuzzy rule based expert system to alleviate this hazard by diagnosing asthma at initial stage. This system has 6 input parameters "FEVI test", "Age", "Allergy Rhinitis", "Environment Factor (Pollution)", "PEF test", "Medical Factor (chronic infection)"and one output parameter which is based on the final result of system and that is defuzzified in order to provide the assessment of the possibility of asthma.
