Published: July 2022

The clinical symptoms caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) are nonspecific and can be associated with most other respiratory viruses that cause acute respiratory tract infections (ARI). Because the clinical differentiation of COVID-19 patients from those with other respiratory viruses is difficult, the evaluation of automated methods to detect important respiratory viruses together with SARS-CoV-2 seems necessary. Therefore, this study compares two molecular assays for the detection of respiratory viruses, including SARS-CoV-2: the Respiratory Viruses 16-Well Assay (AusDiagnostics, Pty Ltd., Mascot, Australia) and the Allplex™ RV Essential Assay coupled with the Allplex™-nCoV Assay (Seegene Inc., Seoul, Korea). The two methods (AusDiagnostics and AlplexTM-nCoV Assay SARS-CoV-2) had 98.6% agreement with the reference method, cobas 6800, for the detection of SARS-CoV-2. Agreement between the AusDiagnostics assay and the AlplexTM RV Essential Assay for the detection of seven respiratory viruses was 99%. In our experience, the Respiratory Viruses 16-Well Assay proved to be the most valuable and useful medium-throughput method for simultaneous detection of important respiratory viruses and SARS-CoV-2. The main advantages of the method are high specificity for all targets included and their simultaneous detection and medium throughput with the option of having multiple instruments provide a constant run.
Effects of Housing and Management Factors on Selected Indicators of the Welfare Quality® Protocol in Loose-Housed Dairy Cows
Authors: Gieseke Daniel , Lambertz Christian , Gauly Matthias
Published: July 2022

The objective of this study was to examine the effects of housing and management factors on animal welfare indicators in dairy cows using a benchmarking approach. In total, 63 conventional dairy cattle farms with zero-grazing in Northern Germany were assessed using selected animal welfare indicators (body condition score, integument alterations, lameness, milk somatic cell count, and social behaviour) of the Welfare Quality® protocol. Additionally, housing characteristics such as designs of barns, cubicles, and floors were documented during farm visits and farmers were interviewed concerning their common management routines. Farms were categorized into a high welfare or low welfare group by calculating upper and lower tertiles for each of the animal welfare indicators separately. Both groups were compared regarding housing conditions and management practices using univariable and multivariable logistic regressions. Several associations between housing and management factors and animal welfare indicators were demonstrated in univariable analysis (p < 0.20). Significant effects within multivariable logistic regression analysis were determined for lameness (routine use of foot-baths), milk somatic cell count (milking frequency) and social behaviour (cow-to-stall ratio) (p < 0.05). Comparing farms with higher and lower animal welfare status can provide useful information about effective options to improve animal welfare.

Published: July 2022

Flood disasters are one of the most serious meteorological disasters in China. With the rapid development of information technology, individual monitoring tools could not meet the need for flood disaster monitoring. Therefore, a new integrated air-space-ground method, based on combined satellite remote sensing, unmanned aerial vehicle remote sensing and field measurement technology, has been proposed to monitor and assess flood disasters caused by a dam failure in Poyang County, Jiangxi Province. In this paper, based on an air-space-ground investigation system, the general flooded areas, severely affected areas, and more severely affected areas were 53.18 km2, 12.61 km2 and 6.98 km2, respectively. The size of the dam break gap was about 65 m and 34.7 m on 22 and 23 June. The assessment precision was better than 98%, and the root mean square error (RMSE) was 0.86 m. The method could meet the needs for flood disaster information at different spatiotemporal scales, such as macro scale, medium scale and local small scale. The integrated monitoring of flood disasters was carried out to provide the whole process and all-round information on flood evolution dynamics, the disaster development process for flood disaster monitoring and emergency assessment, and holographic information for emergency rescue and disaster reduction, as well as to meet the need for different temporal and spatial scales of information in the process of disaster emergencies.
Spatial Estimates of Flood Damage and Risk Are Influenced by the Underpinning DEM Resolution: A Case Study in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

Published: July 2022

The sensitivity of simulated flood depth and area to DEM resolution are acknowledged, but their effects on flood damage and risk estimates are less well understood. This study sought to analyse the relative benefits of using global DEMs of different resolution sizes, 5 m AW3D Standard, 12.5 m ALOS PALSAR and 30 m SRTM, to simulate flood inundation, damage and risk. The HEC-RAS 2D model was adopted for flood simulations, and the Toba River in the Klang River Basin in Malaysia was chosen for the case study. Simulated inundation areas from AW3D coincide the most with reported flooded areas, but the coarser-resolution DEMs did capture some of the reported flooded areas. The inundation area increased as the resolution got finer. As a result, AW3D returned almost double flood damage and risk estimates compared to ALOS PALSAR, and almost quadruple compared to SRTM for building-level damage and risk analysis. The findings indicate that a finer-resolution DEM improves inundation modelling and could provide greater flood damage and risk estimates compared to a coarser DEM. However, DEMs of coarser resolution remain useful in data-scarce regions or for large-scale assessments in efforts to manage flood risk.
Assessment of Uncertainty in Grid-Based Rainfall-Runoff Model Based on Formal and Informal Likelihood Measures
Authors: Seong Yeonjeong , Choi Cheon-Kyu , Jung Younghun
Published: July 2022

Damage prevention from the local storms and typhoons in Korea, the development of a rainfall-runoff model reflecting local geological, meteorological and physical characteristics is necessary. The accuracy of the rainfall-runoff model is influenced by the various uncertainty factors that can occur in the modeling processes, including input data, model parameters, modeling simplification, and so on. Thus, the objectives of this study are (1) to estimate runoff for two rainfall events using Grid Rainfall-Runoff Model (GRM); (2) to quantify the uncertainty of the GRM model using the Generalized Likelihood Uncertainty Estimation (GLUE) method, and (3) to assess the uncertainty ranges of the GRM based on different likelihood functions. For this, two rainfall events were implemented to the GRM in the Cheongmicheon watershed, and informal likelihood functions (LNSE, LPBIAS, LRSR, and LLOG) based on the fitness indices (NSE, PBIAS, RSR, and Log-normal) were used for uncertainty analysis and quantification using GLUE method. As a result, the GRM parameters varied according to the different rainfall patterns even in the same watershed. In addition, among the GRM parameters, the CRC (Channel Roughness Coefficient) and CSHC (Correction factor for Soil Hydraulic Conductivity) characteristics are the most sensitive. Moreover, this study showed that the uncertainty range of the GRM model can be changed with the subjective selection of likelihood functions and thresholds. The GRM model is open source and has good accessibility. Especially, this open-source model allows various approaches to disaster prevention plans such as flood forecasting and flood insurance policies. In addition, if the parameter range of GRM is quantified and standardized at domestic watersheds, it is expected that the reliability of the rainfall-runoff simulation can be increased by the reduction of the uncertainty factors.
Comprehensive Assessment of Soil Conservation Measures by Rough Set Theory: A Case Study in the Yanhe River Basin of the Loess Plateau

Published: July 2022

At present, much attention has been paid to the ecology, economics, and social benefits of erosion control projects: however, the evaluation of an erosion control technology itself has been neglected. This study selected six soil conservation measures applied to the Loess Plateau, and a comprehensive evaluation model was developed considering the maturity of the technology, application difficulty of the technology, technology efficiency, and the potential of technology promotion. The relation between a condition attribute and a decision attribute is evaluated using rough set theory, and the decision attribute is completely dependent on the condition attribute, which indicates that the index system can better evaluate the soil conservation measures applied to the Loess Plateau. Rough set theory was used to determine the weights of evaluation indexes, which overcomes the limitation of relying only on expert opinions or index data to determine the weights. According to the comprehensive scores, the six soil conservation measures can be grouped into three levels: the first level includes economic forests, check dams, and terraces; the second level includes afforestation and conversion to grassland, and the third level includes enclosures. The results can provide a scientific basis for the promotion and application of the high-ranking soil conservation measures in the Loess Plateau. However, the comprehensive evaluation of the soil conservation measures applied to the Loess Plateau is a very complex problem. To maximize the eco-environmental benefits, land use patterns should be rationally adjusted, and corresponding soil conservation measures could be suitable for meeting the regional development goals.
Genre-Specific Irrealia in Translation: Can Irrealia Help Define Speculative Fiction Sub-Genres?
Authors: Martinkovič Matej
Published: July 2022

Speculative fiction texts and their translation, particularly from English, have been gradually rising in prominence. However, not only do speculative fiction and its sub-genres remain only vaguely defined in general despite numerous attempts by both writers and theoreticians, but their specific features are often even less explored from the perspective of translation studies. This article aims to enrich translation studies understanding of irrealia as signature features of speculative fiction texts. It builds on existing conceptions of both irrealia and realia in order to propose the concept of genre-specific irrealia. Hence, it discusses how irrealia relate to individual sub-genres of speculative fiction and how such distinctions can help the recipient or translator realise the specificity of these elements. The paper has a particular focus on science fiction, although it also discusses fantasy and supernatural horror specific irrealia. The article then illustrates the concept of genre-specific irrealia and discusses its implications for translation on examples drawn from the novel Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury and its Slovak translation by the translator Jozef Klinga.

The Exhibition of the Theft and the Beliefs Associated With it in the "Karisal Region" Short Stories
Authors: S Thulasi
Published: July 2022

Through reading, it is understood that modern storytelling in the form of Tamil literature embraces different themes in different forms and the expression of the same. Accordingly, the publication of the short story, which encompasses various forms of emotion, beautifully reveals the living conditions of many oppressed and sublime people from time immemorial outside of his fiction. In an effort to draw attention to the dilapidated manor, which has been subjected to a multifaceted crisis in many ways throughout history by a diverse group of selfish people, particularly the beliefs they hold in the lives of those who have been made thieves, as well as how the Karisal regional writer has created and illustrated them in his short story literature, as well as their pre- and post-theft belief-based activities in their short stories.
S. Tamilselvan’s Short Story 'Subbuttai' from a Sociological Point of View
Authors: V Kalavathi
Published: July 2022

Among Tamil writers in the Karisal region, S. Tamilselvan's story, Subhuthai, is said to point to the plight of child labor. The Subhuthai story points to the psychological tendency of a child to express her emotional state in a realistic way while carrying the burden of the family at the age of going to school, and thinking of her mother and the baby in her arms, without talking about education at all. No matter how many short stories have been written about child labor in the history of Tamil short stories, this story highlights the plight of child labor, which is considered a disgrace to society. His story has done an unparalleled job of convincing the upper class through such stories to stop the children working at their homes and send them to school. Another important domain in the works of Tamilselvan are the stories of Subbuthai, Voices, Lunger Boy, Word, and Mynakkal, which tell us about the mental world of children, the stories of the nostalgic crises of children from economically disadvantaged families. Through Subhuthai, the expressions of Karisal children’s lifestyle is said to be voiced.
The Iconography and Characteristic of Wall Paintings of Daeungjeon Hall at Jangyuksa Temple in Yeongdeok
Authors:   THE RESEARCH INSTITUTE FOR THE MAHAN-BAEKJE CULTURE, Kim Ji-Youn
Published: July 2022

As a building of Joseon Dynasty, Daeungjeon Hall at Jangyuksa Temple has jusimpo type gable roof with three bays in the front and three bays on the side, and inside the Hall, it attracts the attention of wall paintings and dancheong drawn on the wall and ceiling as well as Buddha statues and Buddhist paintings. Wall paintings and dancheong which make the interior of the Hall look majestic are usually drawn small because they are painted in the sense to focus attention on Buddha statues or Buddhist paintings as the main object of worship and form a religious atmosphere, but it receives attention since the east and west wall of Daeungjeon Hall at Jangyuksa Temple show unique iconography that is not seen in wall paintings of other temples.
This paper looked into the layout focusing on wall paintings the inside of Daeungjeon Hall at Jangyuksa Temple and examined the iconographic origin of the iconography that is distinguished from wall paintings of other temples, such as Munsudongja(Child Majusri) on a lion, Bohyeondongja(Child Samantabhadra) on a white elephant, and Bicheon(aprasas) playing a musical instrument, etc. as well as the development process. This iconography was established as solo iconography in earlier period of wall paintings, and it was found that it had an influence on banner Buddhist paintings of Seoul&Gyeonggi area be drawn at the bottom from the end of the 19th century to the early 20th century. However, Arhat paintings and Portraits of Great Masters on Pobyeok wall show characteristics after the 19th century in the iconography, coloration, and detailed expression, so it is believed that they were repainted after a rebuilding.
Then, based on the records handed down to the temple, the creation period of the wall paintings was examined. Most of the wall paintings the inside of Daeungjeon Hall were created in 1764 during a ceremony of Buddhist paintings, in which leading monk painters Doohoon(斗訓) and Jaeok(再玉) participated, and it can be said that they have great material value as representative works showing the iconography of Gisamunsudongja(Child Majusri on a lion) and Gisangbohyeondongja(Child Samantabhadra on a white elephant) in the mid-18th century.
Are EU environmental regulations consistent with the concept of internalisation of externalities – the case of Polish electricity sector
Authors: Kudełko Mariusz
Published: July 2022

The article’s goal is to examine whether the existing EU environmental regulations implemented in the Polish electricity sector are consistent with the concept of internalisation of external costs. The tool used in the research is the partial equilibrium model of the mid-term development of the Polish power sector. There are two scenarios. The first ‘base’ scenario assumes gradual decarbonisation of the Polish energy sector. In the ‘int’ scenario, the structure of energy production results from the full internalisation of external costs. The structural changes in the ‘base’ scenario are a significant challenge. All coal-based technologies are being drastically phased out and will be replaced by RES and nuclear technologies. The climate policy leading to a gradual reduction of CO2 emissions in Poland makes sense, assuming much higher external costs of CO2 emissions (€65/Mg CO2 ) than those assumed in this study.
Supporting local economic development as a motive for purchasing organic food
Authors: Czudec Adam , Miś Teresa , Zając Dariusz
Published: July 2022

The aim of this paper is to assess the significance of organic food purchases by consumers in Poland – motivated by supporting the local economy – against the background of other factors shaping consumer behaviour. The empirical material consists of the results of a survey among 850 consumers of organic food in Poland.  The empirical material was analysed using Pearson’s chi-squared test of independence and the non-parametric Mann–Whitney U test. The study shows that for a large group of organic food consumers, supporting the local economy appears to be an important motive for its purchase. The only factor significantly differentiating the two groups of consumers (motivated or not motivated by supporting the local economy) was the level of family income. The study allowed us to conclude that among consumers motivated by supporting the local economy, attitudes described as reflexive localism (the motive of supporting the local economy associated with concern for the natural environment) predominate.

Published: July 2022

The purpose of the study is to conduct a clinical assessment of the effectiveness of toothbrushes of various types in adolescents aged 12—15 years by dynamic monitoring of the state of hard tissues of teeth, periodontal and hygienic status. Material and Methods: A parallel, randomized, open clinical trial was conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of three different toothbrushes among adolescents aged 12—15 years. The study involved 60 adolescents who were randomly divided into 3 groups of 20 people. In each group, adolescents received one type of toothbrush. In group A, adolescents used a manual brush with a multi-level brush field for brushing their teeth, in group B — a manual brush with a flat brush field, in group C — an electric toothbrush making 8800 reciprocating rotational and 20000 pulsating movements per minute. The dental examination included the determination of the KUz, PI (Turesky S., 1970) and PMA (Parma S., 1960) indices. After the examination, the teenagers were taught the standard method of brushing their teeth. Repeated examinations were carried out after 1, 2 and 3 months. To compare the indicators of one group in dynamics, the Wilcoxon test was used, and to identify differences between groups, the Mann-Whitney test was used. Results: The values of the KPUz index did not change in the course of the study in any of the groups. In all groups, there was a significant decrease in PI after 1, 2 and 3 months from the start of the study (Wilcoxon test, p<0.05 compared with baseline). The cleaning effect of the studied samples of toothbrushes for 1 month. was 48.4% in group A, 27.6% in group B and 56.7% in group C -Whitney, p<0.05). Of the manual toothbrushes, a brush with a multi-level brush field turned out to be more effective. Along with a decrease in the index of plaque in all groups, there was a significant decrease in the PMA index (Wilcoxon test, p<0.001 compared with the baseline). The achieved effect was maintained for 2 and 3 months. from the start of the study, with no significant difference between the groups (p>0.05). Conclusion: The highest cleaning effect was observed when adolescents used an electric toothbrush. Of the manual toothbrushes for teenagers, the brush with a multi-level brush field turned out to be more effective.
Antifeminist rhetoric and practice in Brazil
Authors: Dias Julia Silva Souza
Published: July 2022

Antifeminism has grown on the twenty-one century, being used and reproduced by governments around the world to acquire loyal subjects and implement other conservative policies in their countries. This paper analysis the anti-feminist rhetoric and practice in one of the cases, Brazil, focusing on Bolsonaro’s government. Other studies have studied this topic, but we are still lacking an approach that considers psychoanalysis and the fantasmatic effect on our social and political scenario. Using discourse theory and rhetoric, this paper answers the questions: What is the character of Bolsonaro’s government’s anti-feminist rhetoric and practice? What accounts for its grip among members of his base? The answers are related to how the government convinces their subjects through their character, reason and emotion. Related to the latter, the grip happens through theft of enjoyment and the anxiety brought by the threat of abortion and gender ideology.

Published: July 2022

Semiconductor nano-membranes provide a new way to develop optical devices with better performance. Herein, we report a fabrication method of GaN-based LED membranes with a complete device structure including contact metals from Si substrate by using electrochemical etching of highly conductive AlN/Si interface, which is often naturally formed in GaN-on-Si materials. Photoluminescence and Raman scattering spectra show that the internal stress after the lift-off was effectively lightened with 1.45 GPa. Electrical measurement results show that both the leakage current and series resistance were largely decreased, and strong and uniform electroluminescence further proved the well-preserved whole structure.

This paper comprehensively addresses homomorphic encryption from both theoretical and practical perspectives. The paper delves into the mathematical foundations required to understand fully homomorphic encryption FHE. It consequently covers design fundamentals and security properties of FHE, and describes the main FHE schemes based on various mathematical problems. On a more practical level, the paper presents a view on privacy-preserving Machine Learning using homomorphic encryption, then surveys FHE at length from an engineering angle, covering the potential application of FHE in fog computing, and cloud computing services. It also provides a comprehensive analysis of existing state-of-the-art FHE libraries and tools, implemented in software and hardware, and the performance thereof.

Autonomous vehicles are the upcoming smart vehicles expected to be efficient, crash avoiding and driver less ideal urban vehicle. To attain this goal many organizations started research in this field to solve the real time problems faced during the development of autonomous vehicles. The first challenge in this phase is to customize the existing technology to develop autonomous vehicle with latest technologies. The future expectation is to develop fully automated vehicle without any flaws. This can be achieved by integrating various sensors, navigation software and various control algorithms, etc. However, the challenges and uncertainties are still vast because the application of autonomous driving environment involves not only the complex automotive technology but also the human-behavior, traffic management strategies, ethics, liability, policies etc., So as the result carmaker’s does not expect to commercially launch an autonomous vehicle in less time. From the technical perception the detection of the obstacles at high speed and a long distance is one of the highest difficulties. This survey paper shows an overview of the challenges faced by the autonomous vehicle and the technological implementations applied. Based on the research works of various researchers this literature survey is carried out and it can be used for future references.
Review on Advanced Cost Effective Approach for Privacy with Dataset in Cloud Storage
Authors: Joe Vijesh
Published: July 2022

Cloud computing allows customers to run compute and data-intensive applications without the need for a large investment in infrastructure. Additionally, a significant amount of intermediate datasets are created and often saved, in order to reduce the expense of re-computing these applications. It becomes difficult to protect the privacy of intermediate datasets because attackers may be able to retrieve information that is sensitive to privacy via the analysis of several intermediate datasets. Existing techniques to deal with this problem generally endorse the use of encryption for all cloud datasets. For data-intensive applications, the time and expense of repeatedly decrypting and encrypting intermediate datasets are prohibitive; hence, encrypting all intermediate datasets does not make sense. Big heterogeneous data storage concerns and challenges, countermeasures (security and administration) and cloud storage prospects, are discussed in this article. New questions arise for cloud storage researchers, when they examine these issues in depth.

Sabidamente a desnutrição proteica nas fases iniciais da vida promove alterações anatomofisiológicas e funcionais em muitos sistemas orgânicos inclusive no sistema estomatognático, com especial atenção no sistema mastigatório. Neste trabalho foi avaliado se a suplementação com composto contendo nucleotídeos pode corroborar na manutenção de um equilíbrio homeostático das funções do sistema mastigatório. Foram utilizados ratos Wistar, inicialmente com 21 dias de vida que foram divididos em grupos experimentais (n=8) e denominados de Controle (tratados com dieta normoproteica: AN-14% durante 6 semanas); Controle tratados com composto contendo nucleotídeos marca Nucleocell durante 6 semanas; Desnutridos tratados com dieta hipoproteica (AN-6%) durante 6 semanas; Desnutridos tratados com dieta hipoproteica e composto contendo nucleotídeos da marca Nucleocell durante 6 semanas. Foram avaliados os seguintes itens: curva de ganho de massa (semanalmente) e no final das condições experimentais foram avaliadas as concentrações plasmáticas de albumina (A) e proteína total (PT), amostras do músculo masseter foram submetidas a avaliação histológica e foi determinada a concentração plasmática da interleucina TNF-α. Na análise estatística foi aplicado o teste de Kruska-Wallis, p<0,05. Os resultados mostraram que a suplementação não foi efetiva em minimizar as alterações do músculo masseter geradas pela restrição de proteína na dieta e também não interferiu na concentração plasmática da citocina TNF-α, imperando o comprometimento na dinâmica mastigatória imposta pela desnutrição.

Over the last few decades, socio-religious changes in the middle-class Muslim community have transformed individual conceptions of what it means to be a ‘modern’ Muslim. It can be practiced even in conventional ways; joining a Sufi order (tarekat) group. This way refutes the perception of some groups who stigmatize Sufism as a ‘people’s religion,’ a form of rural religious practice. This article depicts Indonesia and Pakistan’s urban middle-class Muslim trend to practice the Qadiriyah tarekat. Although using the classical Sufism method, the middle-class Muslim in both countries still practice Sufism in a modern trend. This tarekat can facilitate the middle-class Muslim community to achieve a degree of ‘unity with God’ by using the tools of modernity. Besides its role as a medium for psychological therapy in the modern era, the Qadiriyah tarekat also contributes to various government programs, especially in anticipating humanitarian conflicts, preventing radicalism, strengthening harmony between communities, and initiating women’s empowerment movements.
Islamic Turn in Malay Historiography: Bustān al-Salāṭīn of 17th Century Aceh
Authors: Burhanudin Jajat
Published: July 2022

Bustān al-Salāṭīn by Nūr al-Dīn al-Ranīrī (d. 1659) is a leading Malay text on Islamic history. Written in the 17th century in Aceh, one chapter of the Bustān was dedicated to the history of Aceh. This paper discusses how the Bustān described the formation of the sultanate, the rulers who were in power, their political behaviour, and the methods of statecraft they tried to establish. The text shared the emerging intellectual discourse in 17th Century Aceh, in which al-Ranīrī’s reform of Muslims’ religious practices to uphold sharī‘ah-based principles gained its prominence. With the support of his patron, Iskandar Thani (1636-1641), al-Ranīrī’s Islamizing efforts for Aceh are reflected in the Bustān. This paper argues that the Islamic ideals and terms found in the Bustān signify the history of Aceh and profile the patron, which sets Bustān apart from previous Malay texts of historical writing.

Aim: To evaluate the level of life satisfaction of patients after an ischemic stroke, as well as to determine the factors that may affect the life satisfaction.
Material and methods: The study included 100 subjects (42% women and 58% med) after an ischemic stroke re¬cruited from the Department of Neurology of the Medical University of Bialystok. The research material was collected on the basis of the author’s questionnaire constructed on the basis of research, Satisfaction Life Scale SWLS, Barthel scale.
Results: The mean value of the SWLS scale was 23.15 (± 5.19), which is assessed as a high level of life satisfaction, and it was-comparable among women among women and men (23.90± 5.69 and 22.60± 4.77,respectively). The level of satisfaction of life after stroke, in relation to the situation before the disease, decreased in 41% of respondents, did not change in 27% of respondents , while in 8% of participants increased.
Conclusions: The level of life satisfaction of people after ischemic stroke was high despite complications and loss of independence experienced to varying degrees. The occurrence of complications is a decisive factor in the deterioration of the mobility of a person after ischemic stroke.

Aim: To determine the approaches to form stress tolerance of the individual in quarantine conditions and justify the means of providing remote psychological assistance.
Material and methods: The research methods were chosen taking into account the set goal, and are also caused by the need for a comprehensive study of the means of providing psychological assistance to persons who are (were) in stressful conditions (analysis, prediction, comparative method, generalization method, etc.).
Results: The problem of overcoming stress involves the study of the patterns of formation and implementation of the processes of preventive and operational protection of the body and psyche from stressful influences; development and manifestation of various strategies (methods) and styles of behavior in these conditions; personal determination of the processes of counteraction; the role of functional resources in the formation of methods of countering stress. Dur¬ing remote psychological counseling of people in a crisis situation, it is useful to use directive interaction techniques. The use of valid psychotherapeutic methods provides for the preservation and restoration of the resource state of the consulted person.
Conclusions: Rehabilitation measures (the use of advisory methods; changing the strategies and behaviors of a per¬son; using self-regulation techniques, etc.) are aimed at reducing the risks of developing stressful phenomena and their impact on a person during quarantine. The tools of professional psychological assistance should focus primarily on improving communicative openness, stress tolerance, social confidence, etc.
