Conceptual Design of Mars Sub-Surface Habitat for Sustaining Thermal Stability
Authors: M Malaya Kumar Biswal , Gomez-Fernandez David , Das Noor Basanta , Annavarapu Ramesh Naidu
Published: March 2021

The surface of Mars is seasoned with hostile climate, recurrent dusty sand storms, exposure to galactic cosmic radiation, and temperature variance that persuaded a challenging environment for performing science mission operations. A human mission to Mars requires extended presence for approximately 180-270 days since regular interplanetary transit is limited due to its far distance and technology limitation. So it is significant to have a confined habitat that can ensure crew protection as well as sustainable presence thereby affording necessities. In addition to this, the surface temperature of Mars varies from (-125°C to 20°C) that pose a greater challenge for life forms and crews to sustain thermal stability. Improper temperature balance may lead the crew to experience the effect of hypothermia and frost formation. Hence considering the entire challenges of human survival of Mars, we propose a novel “Mars Sub-Surface Habitat” capable of stabilizing habitat’s internal temperature during night-time. Further, the habitat is environment tolerant to keep the astronauts secure from every critical condition. Its thermal stability is enhanced by the thickened wall structure sealed with either in-situ thermal insulating material or synthetic insulators. Apart from its wall design, its potentiality to isolate itself from the surface environment at night triggers additional temperature stability. Keeping eye on the forthcoming human expedition mission and the strategy for human settlement, we hope this kind of habitat may afford a favourable compact home for a safe and sustainable mission. The habitat is proposed base on the concept that the subsurface of Mars seems to be a perfect platform for future Martians.
Conditional Maximum Likelihood Estimation in Probability-Branched Multistage Designs
Authors: Steinfeld Jan , Robitzsch Alexander
Published: March 2021

This article introduces conditional maximum likelihood (CML) item parameter estimation in multistage designs based on probabilities $p(j)$ for choosing a particular path conditional on a raw score $x_+$ in a previous module. This type of multistage design is applied to ensure a minimum exposure rate for all items, for example in international large-scale assessments (ILSAs).For the item parameter estimation, various likelihood-based methods are available. While the marginal maximum likelihood method (MML) provides consistent estimates in multistage designs, the CML method in its original formulation leads to biased item parameter estimates. Zwitser and Maris (2015, Psychometrika) proposed a modified CML estimation for multistage designs with deterministic routing rules that provide practically unbiased item parameter estimates. First, this approach is illustrated for sequential and cumulative multistage designs. Subsequently, another modification of the CML estimation method is introduced, which is necessary for multistage designs with probabilistic routing.In a simulation study, it is shown that this modified CML estimation method provides also in probabilistic multistage designs practically unbiased item parameter estimates.

Published: March 2021

Background: A high proportion of patients with remitted major depressive disorder (MDD) will experience recurring episodes, whilst some develop resilience and remain in recovery. The neural basis of resilience to recurrence is elusive. Abnormal resting-state connectivity of the subgenual cingulate cortex (sgACC) was previously found in cross-sectional studies of MDD, suggesting its potential pathophysiological importance. The current study aimed to investigate whether resting-state connectivity to a left sgACC seed region distinguishes resilient patients from those developing recurring episodes. Method: A total of 47 medication-free remitted MDD patients and 38 healthy controls underwent resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) at baseline. Over 14 months, 30 patients remained resilient whilst 17 experienced a recurring episode. Results: Attenuated interhemispheric left-to-right sgACC connectivity distinguished the resilient from the recurring-episode and control groups and was not correlated with residual depressive symptoms. Conclusions: The current study revealed a neural signature of resilience to recurrence in MDD and thereby elucidates the role of compensatory adaptation in sgACC networks.

It has been suggested that there are two distinct and parallel mechanisms for controlling instrumental behavior in mammals: goal-directed actions and habits. To gain an understanding of how these two systems interact to control behavior, it is essential to characterize the mechanisms by which the balance between these systems is influenced by experience. Studies in rodents have shown that the amount of training governs the relative expression of these two systems: behavior is goal-directed following moderate training, but the more extensively an instrumental action is trained, the more it becomes habitual. It is less clear whether humans exhibit similar training effects on the expression of goal-directed and habitual behavior, as human studies have reported contradictory findings. To tackle these contradictory findings, we formed a consortium, where four laboratories undertook a pre-registered experimental induction of habits by manipulating the amount of training. There was no statistical evidence for a main effect of the amount of training on the formation and expression of habits. However, exploratory analyses suggest a moderating effect of the affective component of stress on the impact of training over habit expression. Participants who were lower in affective stress appeared to be initially goal-directed, but became habitual with increased training, whereas participants who were high in affective stress were already habitual even after moderate training, thereby manifesting insensitivity to overtraining effects. Our findings highlight the importance of the role of moderating variables such as individual differences in stress and anxiety when studying the experimental induction of habits in humans.

Published: March 2021

The syndromic heterogeneity of major depressive disorder (MDD) hinders understanding of the etiology of predisposing vulnerability traits and underscores the importance of identifying neurobiologically valid phenotypes. Distinctive fMRI biomarkers of vulnerability to MDD subtypes are currently lacking. This study investigated whether remitted melancholic MDD patients, who are at an elevated lifetime risk for depressive episodes, demonstrate distinctive patterns of resting-state connectivity with the subgenual cingulate cortex (SCC), known to be of core pathophysiological importance for severe and familial forms of MDD. We hypothesized that patterns of disrupted SCC connectivity would be a distinguishing feature of melancholia. A total of 63 medication-free remitted MDD (rMDD) patients (33 melancholic and 30 nonmelancholic) and 39 never-depressed healthy controls (HC) underwent resting-state fMRI scanning. SCC connectivity was investigated with closely connected bilateral a priori regions of interest (ROIs) relevant to MDD (anterior temporal, ventromedial prefrontal, dorsomedial prefrontal cortices, amygdala, hippocampus, septal region, and hypothalamus). Decreased (less positive) SCC connectivity with the right parahippocampal gyrus and left amygdala distinguished melancholic rMDD patients from the nonmelancholic rMDD and HC groups (cluster-based familywise error-corrected p⩽0.007 over individual a priori ROIs corresponding to approximate Bonferroni-corrected p⩽0.05 across all seven a priori ROIs). No areas demonstrating increased (more positive) connectivity were observed. Abnormally decreased connectivity of the SCC with the amygdala and parahippocampal gyrus distinguished melancholic from nonmelancholic rMDD. These results provide the first resting-state neural signature distinctive of melancholic rMDD and may reflect a subtype-specific primary vulnerability factor given a lack of association with the number of previous episodes.
Trends in the length of long-term unemployment in Europe: an approach using working life tables, 2000-2018
Authors: Lozano Mariona , Rentería Elisenda
Published: March 2021

Long-term unemployment has severe negative consequences. However, little is known about how long people could expect to be unemployed for more than one year during their lifespan, and which age groups are spending more time out of work while looking for jobs. We apply demographic techniques to enhance our understanding of long-term unemployment, and use the European Labour Force Survey and mortality data to calculate the time that a person could expect to be unemployed for more than a year in 25 European countries between 2000 and 2018. We identify four groups of countries that are characterised by different trends in the duration of long-term unemployment. Results show very different impact of the 2008 Recession on the length of long-term unemployment in Europe, and it was especially large in Southern and Eastern countries, as well as in Ireland. In addition, although younger workers record higher rates of long-term unemployment, older workers could expect to spend a larger proportion of their working lives unemployed. Finally, we show that, in some countries, the measure of long-term unemployment has been underestimated due to a discouraged worker effect.

Overqualification as Moderator for the Link Between Job Change and Job Satisfaction Among Immigrants and Natives in Germany
Authors: Khalil Samir , Lietz Almuth , Mayer Sabrina Jasmin
Published: March 2021

Job satisfaction is a major driver of an individual’s subjective well-beingand thus affects public health, societal prosperity, and organisations, asdissatisfied employees are less productive and more likely to change jobs.However, changing jobs does not necessarily lead to higher job satisfactionin the long run. Previous studies have shown, instead, that changingjobs only increases job satisfaction for a short period of time beforeit gradually falls back to similar levels as before. This phenomenon isknown as the ’honeymoon–hangover’ pattern. In our study, we identifyan important new moderator of the relation between job change and jobsatisfaction: the job–qualification match of job change. Based on relativedeprivation theory, we argue that a job change from being overqualified ina job lowers the likelihood of negative comparisons and thus increases thehoneymoon period and lessens the hangover period. In addition, we investigatewhether this moderating effect is less pronounced among immigrants,since the phenomenon of overqualification occurs more frequentlyamong immigrants. We use data from the Socio-Economic Panel rangingfrom 1994–2018 and focus specifically on individual periods of employeesbefore and after job changes (N=134,417). Our results confirm that achange to a job that requires a matched qualification has a stronger andlonger-lasting effect on job satisfaction, and that this effect is slightly lowerfor respondents born abroad.
Who cares about health and the economy through the Covid-19 pandemic? Longitudinally tracking changes and heterogeneity in people’s perceptions of risks
Authors: Ferragina Emanuele , Pasqualini Marta , Ricchi Ettore , Zola Andrew
Published: March 2021

The Covid-19 pandemic is widely interpreted as a double-edged crisis between the preservation of health and economic functioning. Considering individuals’ perceptions of the pandemic risks, we devised a ten-point tradeoff scale asking people to situate their concern between health and the economy. We administered this question seven times to a representative panel of French residents from April until November 2020, establishing a barometer that tracked changes and heterogeneity between these two concerns. We find overall concern moved in favor of the economy over time. There is substantial heterogeneity across respondents: those reporting risk from Covid-19, lower subjective social status and politically leftwing preferences were more concerned with health than the rest of the population. This partially applies to the less educated, the less wealthy and the young, suggesting the pandemic reinforces preexisting social cleavages. Beyond the pandemic situation, longitudinal tradeoff scales are a promising way to investigate risk perceptions.

Islamic Teacher Development: Constructing Islamic Professional Teachers Based on The Khalifah Concept
Authors: Tambak Syahraini , Amril Amril , Sukenti Desi
Published: March 2021

Islamic professional teachers have been researched by educational researchers, but placing the concept of Khalifah as part of teacher professionalism has not been found in more detail. This research is a conceptual-literature type and is analyzed using a content analysis approach. An explored Islamic professional teacher design based on the concept of the Khalifah is illustrated; first, implementing the paradigm that the teacher is the personification of the Khalifah as the representative of Allah SWT on earth to teach humans to manage the universe, serve Allah SWT, and teach morals. Second, the teacher develops the aspect of siyadah that is mastering the knowledge related to the learning process by maximizing the power of the potential of the mind, senses and heart that is bestowed by Allah SWT. Besides that, it is worship with actual moral application in carrying out the teaching profession to provide a brilliant civilization. The learning activities carried out by the teacher are to mobilize all potential students to worship Allah SWT by internalizing Islamic behavior, namely; hikmah (wisdom), syaja'ah (brave), hilmi(polite), iffa (simple), jud (generous), ‘adalah (fair) and mahabbah (love). This research has implications for the theory of " professional Islamic teacher development" in the world of the madrasa and general education.

Published: March 2021

Islam sets the roles and relationship between husband and wife in the family in a balanced manner to create sakinah, mawadah, and rahmah (peaceful, loving, and compassionate) family. A lot of people often underestimate the role of a wife in a family. This paper examined the Masturah (rather than putting Arabic words, it would be better to write the meaning of the Masturah) as the education program for wife in the family of Tablighi Jamaat in Temboro village, Magetan, East Java, Indonesia. This research used a qualitative approach where the data were collected, applying interviews with various family members of the Tablighi Jamaat. The research results show that the Masturah is a closed and private education strategy for a wife (the Masturah) in the families of Tablighi Jamaat, which is performed in the house with religious training and practice. Second, the purpose of the Masturah is to prepare the role of wife as mu’allimah and muta’alimah, daiyah, and a’bidah (teacher and student, preacher, and worshiper). Third, the Masturah helps to increase Iman (the belief in Allah (the practice in worship, appreciation in practicing Islamic religion, improving the knowledge in Islamic teaching, and the increase of motivation in religion and preaching. This research has implications for the importance of religious education for wives to support their husbands' da'wah activities and children's education at home.

Given that the importance of stabilization of the agency theory as a base to organize the relationship between the shareholders "the origin" and the management "the agent" in the business environment nowadays, this study aimed to identify the impact of the chief executive officer "CEO" power on the agency costs in the Libyan private banks. To achieve this goal the study underlying the scarcity of related previous studies has stated its hypotheses. The study sample consists of (6) private banks for (5) years; then the study relied upon the multiple regression technique, which has been used to examine the fourth sub-hypotheses of the main one. As a result, the study became able to state that there is a positive significant relationship between the CEO ownership in the bank shares and the agency costs, while that there is no significant relationship between the duality of CEO role, the duration of CEO in his position, the independency of the board of directors and the agency costs in the Libyan private banks.
Effect of three Mechanical Systems on Removal of Endotoxins from Asymptomatic Necrotic teeth with apical Periodontitis. (A randomized clinical trial)
Authors: Vieyra Jorge
Published: March 2021

Objective: The present study's objective was to evaluate the percentage of endotoxin diminution after mechanical instrumentation of asymptomatic necrotic teeth with apical periodontitis using three mechanical systems. Materials and Methods: One hundred and eighty patients between 18 and 65 participated in this research. Thirty-five of 140 teeth were selected for the four enlargement techniques. Control group, TFA, WOG, and PTN groups received final flushing with 6oC 17% EDTA solution gently administered to the WL through a cold (6oC) sterile metallic micro-cannula attached to the Endovac system (Kerr Endo) for one minute. Two samples of the canal were obtained using a sterile paper cone (size 30) introduced into the canal´s full length. Results: Results showed a statistically significant difference between the two groups in the percentage reduction of endotoxin levels (P-value <0.001, Effect size = 0.598). Group PTN showed a statistically significantly lower median % reduction in endotoxin quantities than Group WOG and TFA. Conclusion: Under this study's conditions, it can be concluded that the PTN system was more effective in endotoxins reduction in teeth with necrotic pulps. When the RCT is correctly instrumented, single visit RCT can be as effective as a multiple visit treatment.

The Transferrin is an iron ion transport protein with a biological function that is important to avoid toxic effects due to high intra and extracellular iron ion concentrations [1]. The cellular protective function attributed to transferrin, especially to the germ and support cells (Sertoli cells), is due to its possible antioxidative function exerted together with another protein linked to iron metabolism, ferritin. Seminal transferrin (ST) is an isoform of plasma transferrin, abundant in seminal fluid, secretory product of Sertoli cells (80%)p.
ROTEM Analyses of Low Molecular heparin effects with Vitro Induced Thrombocytopenia
Authors: Schött Ulf
Published: March 2021

Background: Thrombocytopenia is correlated to hemorrhagic complications in patients with low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) thromboprophylaxis. Aims: The aims of our study were to investigate an experimentally induced in vitro thrombocytopenia and then adding 2 types of LMWHs in vitro. Our hypothesis was that a platelet depleted whole blood sample could reflect a stronger synergistic anticoagulative effect of in vitro added LMWH than in the non-manipulated blood. Method: Two venous citrated blood samples were consecutively drawn from 8 patient’s gynaecologic cancer and normal routine coagulation laboratory analyses immediately preopewratively. One of the two samples had its buffy coat pipetted away into a separate tube. Half of the buffy coat was returned to the same sample (treated sample). 3x500 μl of blood from the non-treated sample was added to 3 separate microtubes and corresponding for the treated sample. Thromboprophylactic doses corresponding to an in vivo peak effect 0.5 anti-Xa international units/ml of tinzaparin and enoxaparin were added both to untreated and treated samples – 2 microtubes were unheparinized (treated/untreatedsample). All samples were analysed with rotational thromboelastometry (ROTEM). Results: Wilcoxon matched-pairs signed rank tests of the in-group differences between non-non-treated and treated samples showed no significant differences (p≤0.05) for any of the parameters analysed with the ROTEM-INTEM reagent regardless of heparinization or not. Calculation of non-parametric spearman correlation for clotting time (CT) vs. platelet count (PLC) were not significant for any group. Tinzaparin was clearly observed to prolong CT in the buffy-coat lowered blood from two patients. Conclusions: Our results corroborate previous research that ROTEM cannot detect anticoagulative effects of low dose LMWH in patients with normal PLC. In two patients there was a clear prolongation of clot initiation after tinzaparin that warrants further studies on a more developed in vitro induced thrombocytopenia model.

Intestinal Loop Evisceration after Vaginal Cuff Dehiscence: A Case Report and Review
Authors: Manso Sonia
Published: March 2021

Background: Intestinal loop evisceration complicates 35-67% of vaginal cuff dehiscence, constituting a medical emergency. In most cases, it is associated with genital prolapse in postmenopausal women with previous hysterectomy. Complications associated with the use of a pessary are rare. They are usually due to loss of patient follow-up or negligent use of the device. Clinical presentation: We present the case of a 94-year-old patient who debuted with vaginal evisceration after vaginal cuff dehiscence, associated with prolonged use of pessary as a treatment for vaginal cuff prolapse and enterocele, after laparotomic hysterectomy. Vaginal repair was performed abdominally, due to the size and condition of the eviscerated loops, requiring intestinal resection. An omentum flap was attached to the vaginal cuff to improve healing and to try to occlude the Douglas space. Conclusions: EV requires vaginal, abdominal, or mixed repair, generally deferring definitive prolapse treatment to a second stage and we recommend being very careful with the closure of the vaginal vault after any type of hysterectomy

Pour notre étude, nous avons obtenu quatre fractions flavonoïques à partir de l’extrait brut de feuilles de Ballota hirsuta Benth. La séparation des flavonoïdes par chromatographie sur couche mince révèle la présence des molécules flavonoïques en particulier dans la fraction chloroformique et l’acétate d’éthyle. Les résultats de l’HPLC montrent la présence de la naringine dans la fraction n-BuOH, de la sylibine et de la taxifoline dans la fraction d’acétate. Une forte activité inhibitrice des quatre extraits a été remarquée sur Escherichia coli ATCC 25922 et Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 13565. En revanche, Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 27835 s’est révélée résistante par rapport aux autres bactéries, cela est dû à la structure de sa paroi qui lui confère cette résistance. Les concentrations minimales inhibitrices varient entre 0,25 et 2 mg/ml en fonction de l’extrait flavonoïque et de la souche microbienne.

Published: March 2021

The article proposes the design, design scheme and model of a vertical ground electrode system with lobe lugs for permafrost soils. The model was implemented using the ANSYS software. In the design scheme, the soil — ground electrode system is taken into account, the elastic-plastic properties of the soil are taken into account by the Drucker — Prager model. When modeling the work of the foundation soils, the Mises strength condition was adopted, according to which the equivalent stress is calculated under the condition of the material hydrostatic compression. The following boundary conditions are accepted: a cylinder-shaped soil mass is rigidly fixed along the lower face and along the side surface of the cylinder. Calculations are made for 5 standard sizes of grounding conductors. Maps of the distribution of stresses in the metal structure of the ground electrode (the rod and petals-emphasis) are received, the movements of the ground electrode in the soil mass are determined. The dependences between the maximum equivalent stresses in the ground electrode lobes and the value of vertical displacement in the ground base are established, as well as the amount of movement of the earthing pad, at which the effective equivalent voltages reach critical values in the area where the paddles are adjacent to the rod.

Interviews and reproduction data recording were carried out to assess reproduction views which included Service Per Conseption (S / C), Conception Rate (CR) scores or conception rates. The data analysis technique used is the t-test difference test (SPSS). The results showed that limousine cows with high HCS had low S / C values and high CR values, while limousine cows with low HCS had high S / C values and low CR values, so there was a correlation between HCS and reproductive status, namely the higher SKT gets better reproductive status and vice versa.Keywords: Conception rate, Limousine cow, Service per conseption, Body condition score

Introdução: A indicação da fertilização in vitro (FIV) se faz necessária diante da impossibilidade de reprodução por outras maneiras ou, ainda, em casos de mulher com idade superior a 35 anos, história familiar de menopausa precoce e realização de radioterapia na região pélvica. O objetivo deste artigo foi descrever e enfatizar as principais complicações em gestantes, relacionadas ao processo de FIV, garantindo a informação sobre resultados adversos da gravidez, possibilitando, então, o diagnóstico e tratamento dessas complicações precocemente. Método: Trata-se de uma revisão bibliográfica do tipo integrativa, com abordagem qualitativa, de procedimento bibliográfico, natureza aplicada e objetivo descritivo de estudos nacionais e internacionais. Tal pesquisa foi realizada por meio da base de dados PubMed e seus sites aliados, no período de novembro de 2020 à janeiro de 2021, sendo: “Pregnancy complications”, “Related” e”Fertilization in vitro” os descritores usados. Diante disso, foram obtidos 19 artigos no total. Resultados: Foram avaliados 10 artigos, sendo estudos transversais e de coorte, os mais presentes. Dentre os estudos analisados, 40% (n=4) apontaram sobre o impacto em complicações gestacionais, 30% (n=3) demonstraram que há um impacto da variante psicológica das gestantes e, em 20% (n=2), avaliou-se os mecanismos de TEV (Tromboembolismo Venoso), associando as gestações à FIV com aumento do tromboembolismo. Conclusão: A análise dos estudos relacionados à FIV confirma que esse é um dos métodos recorridos como opção para concepção, quando essa não pode ser feita de outras formas. No entanto, embora haja dúvidas acerca dos riscos, se comparados aos de uma gestação natural, pode haver limitações e complicações relacionadas ao método. Dentre os estudos avaliados a respeito do impacto em complicações gestacionais, concluiu-se que gestações em FIV apresentam maiores riscos se comparadas à gestação natural. Dado todo o exposto, torna-se notória a necessidade de conhecimento sobre as possíveis complicações e uma adequada análise e indicação do método FIV, a fim de evitar ou identificar e tratar precocemente tais complicações e alcançar os benefícios desejados.

La injerencia histórica del orden mundial en el Medio Oriente
Authors: Carrazco Erman
Published: March 2021

Dentro de la disciplina de Relaciones Internacionales (RR. II.), los estudios regionales ocupan un lugar central para el abordaje de la realidad global contemporánea. Bajo la conducción de estos, es posible la compresión de las múltiples experiencias existentes bajo una mirada amplia y dialéctica cuyo objetivo va desde analizar situaciones de carácter coyuntural hasta más profundo y de larga duración. Entre estas regiones la conocida como Medio Oriente ha llegado a ocupar un lugar preponderante por el nivel de complejidad y el grado de desafío que representa para las grandes narrativas teóricas, además, de ser una de las áreas geográficas con mayor efervescencia política y social.
La militarización de la seguridad pública en México
Authors: Hernández Priscilla , Hernández Ignacio
Published: March 2021

Mientras en los países culturalmente anglosajones cada vez es menor la tendencia a tener policías de corte y estilo militar, en los de cultura latina es todo lo contrario. Incluso, en alguns existe una forma de entender la seguridad con un enfoque paralelo de estamentos operando simultáneamente, uno de naturaleza militar y otro de naturaleza civil. Dentro de este texto nos concentraremos en poner bajo relieve las similitudes y diferencias que se puedan apreciar respecto de la Guardia Civil Española, institución policíal de carácter hispano, y la institución mexicana de reciente creación, la Guardia Nacional. La relación histórica entre España y México permite realizar un breve esbozo comparativo para presentar a continuación una base para comprender la evolución de sus fuerzas policiales y cómo es que la seguridad pública ha sido concebida y puesta en marcha en ambos países.
El papel del presupuesto público en el bienestar social de una nación

La planeación estratégica y el presupuesto público como parte de un procesopara fijar objetivos y proyectar escenarios en la parte administrativa de cualquier empresa sea pública o privada. Estas estrategias persiguen el establecimiento de una organización financiera sustentada en un plan de desarrollo social comunitario. Esta reflexión nos invita a tener claro el concepto de presupuesto y así poder integrar y coordinar el plan financiero en la ejecución administrativa de cada acción. Es así como en todas las instituciones públicas o privadas se implementó como un plan estratégico y organizacional el manejo de los recursos asignados como garante de dichas funciones en el gasto público, incluyendo los bienes y servicios que los gobiernos a nivel mundial invierten en Educación, salud pública, seguridad servicios comunitarios y subsidios económicos a las comunidades más vulnerables.
Tejiendo el perfil delictivo en el otro diferente. La delincuencia en jóvenes y adolescentes
Authors: Coronado David
Published: March 2021

Con el análisis de 8 Tablas, que presentan datos estadísticos provenientes de Argentina, Brasil, Colombia y México, ha sido interpretada la construcción de un perfil clasificatorio de niños, adolescentes y jóvenes. Las series estadísticas posibilitan discutir y reconstruir clasificaciones y dispositivos que rebasan los límites burocráticos y legales, cuyos fundamentos caen en lo estrictamente simbólico, por lo que no es de extrañar que el perfil del delincuente adolescente y joven sea marginal, propenso a la comisión de delitos y crímenes. Esta es la idea principal del artículo: la manera cómo el perfil delincuencial, hecho a contraluz de adolescentes y jóvenes varones enlazados con la extrañeza hegemónica, la pobreza, la ausencia de oportunidades y presumiblemente solitarios, es parte importante para mantener el orden social y el imaginario de la seguridad.
ІНТЕНСИФІКАЦІЯ ПРОФЕСІЙНОЇ ПІДГОТОВКИ МАЙБУТНІХ ІНЖЕНЕРІВ-ПРОГРАМІСТІВ У ЗАКЛАДАХ ВИЩОЇ ОСВІТИ
Authors: Сендер А. А.
Published: March 2021

У статті розглянуто існуючі в теорії та практиці науково-педагогічних досліджень підходи до оптимізації та інтенсифікації освітнього процесу, визначено організаційно-методичні засади інтенсифікації професійної підготовки майбутніх інженерів-програмістів у закладах вищої освіти. Показано, що актуальним завданням сьогодення є забезпечення якісної професійної підготовки майбутніх фахівців у закладах вищої освіти. Для його вирішення пропонуються різноманітні підходи, методи, засоби, до числа яких належить інтенсифікація освітнього процесу.

Необхідність інтенсифікації професійної підготовки майбутніх інженерів-програмістів у закладах вищої освіти зумовлена зростанням обсягів навчальної інформації, оновленням змістового наповнення за збереження значущості фундаментальних основ комп’ютерних наук та підвищенням вимог до рівня професійної підготовки випускників відповідних освітніх програм з боку суспільства та роботодавців. Тому інтенсифікація навчання з урахуванням тенденцій розвитку ІТ-галузі, напрацювань педагогічної науки та особистих якостей здобувачів вищої освіти є актуальним напрямом удосконалення ІТ-освіти. Незважаючи на наявність багатьох досліджень з проблем інтенсифікації освітнього процесу та професійної підготовки майбутніх інженерів-програмістів, комплексно ці питання в наукових розвідках практично не висвітлені.

Показано, що інтенсифікація освітнього процесу спрямована на підвищення його якості шляхом удосконалення форм, методів і засобів навчання, що сприяє зростанню його ефективності за умови забезпечення рівноваги між отриманими освітніми результатами та ресурсами, витраченими задля цього. Висвітлено запропоновані науковцями принципи, методи і засоби інтенсифікації освітнього процесу. На цій основі окреслено організаційно-методичні засади інтенсифікації професійної підготовки майбутніх інженерів-програмістів у закладах вищої освіти.
ДЕФІНІЦІЇ «ОСВІТА» І «ПЕДАГОГІКА» В СОЦІОЛОГІЇ Е. ДЮРКГЕЙМА
Authors: Сізов В. В. , Славська Я. А.
Published: March 2021

У статті розглянуто окремі аспекти педагогічних поглядів Е. Дюркгейма на основі його роботи «Освіта і соціологія». Робиться опис категорій «освіта» і «педагогіка» з позицій соціології, причинно-наслідкових зв'язків, закономірностей функціонування і практичного прояву згаданих понять. Аналізуючи дефініції «освіта» і «педагогіка», Дюркгейм підкреслює соціальність цих понять. Він доводить, що освіта – це соціальний інститут, який безперервно існує протягом багатьох етапів історії суспільства, на відміну від педагогіки, яка заявляє про себе тільки періодично. Дюркгейм стверджує, що освіта не повинна будувати свою систему з нуля, вона повинна перш за все присвятити себе розумінню свого часу. Він доводить, що освіта – продукт історії, який може пояснити тільки історія. Освіта – явище соціальне і багато в чому залежить від культурної традиції та специфіки історичного розвитку суспільства, то і реалізація соціальних поглядів на теорію і практику освіти має враховувати конкретну специфіку. Вона підкреслюватиметься тими цілями і завданнями, які стоять перед освітою у конкретній країні в конкретний історичний період. У педагогічному сенсі, у Дюркгейма, педагогіка – це  освітня практика, сфера реалізації теорії освіти. Освіта – це сфера науки. Освітня практика – перехідна стадія від науки до практики. У статті демонструється сучасне визначення категорій «освіта» і «педагогіка» (закордонне і вітчизняне). Акцентується на факті того, що тлумачення цих дефініцій і буде відрізнятися не тільки в міжнародному масштабі, але й окремої держави (суспільства), на рівні тієї чи іншої сфери освіти всередині цієї держави (суспільства).
