Managing Emotions in the Face of Discrimination: The Differential Effects of Self-Immersion, Self-Distanced Reappraisal, and Positive Reappraisal
Authors: Duker Ajua , Green Dorainne , Onyeador Ivuoma Ngozi , Richeson Jennifer
Published: December 2019

Contending with sexism is associated with negative affective outcomes, including increased anger, anxiety, and depression. Research largely outside of the discrimination domain suggests that emotion regulation strategies, such as reappraisal, can help people manage their emotions after stressful events, attenuating the associated negative affect. Perhaps, these emotion regulation strategies may also be effective in the face of discrimination experiences. The present research examines whether self-distanced reappraisal (Studies 1a & 1b) and positive reappraisal (Study 2) when contending with sexism yield more positive and less negative affective outcomes relative to self-immersion. Contrary to previous research, we find limited support for self- distanced reappraisal as an adaptive emotion regulation strategy for women contending with sexism. Results revealed, however, that positive reappraisal, compared to either self-immersion or self-distanced reappraisal, may be a promising emotion regulation strategy that reduces the affective consequences of sexism. We discuss the implications of these findings for understanding the efficacy of different emotion regulation strategies in the context of discrimination.
Broadening the Structure of Meaning in Life: Experiential Appreciation as an Indicator of Existential Meaning
Authors: Flanagan Patricia , Schlegel Rebecca Jean , Lee Zhanhong , Shanahan Colin , Kim Jinhyung , Hicks Joshua A.
Published: December 2019

There is a growing consensus that perceptions of coherence, purpose, and mattering represent primary indicators of the subjective experience of meaning in life (MIL; Costin & Vignoles, 2019). While these variables are supported by recent empirical research, it is unclear whether they encompass all information people consider when judging the meaningfulness of their lives. Based on the ideas of classic (Frankl, 1986) and contemporary (Martella & Steger, 2016) meaning in life scholars, the current research examines whether valuing one’s life experiences, or experiential appreciation (EA), constitutes another unique indicator of MIL. Study 1 provided support for this idea showing that a theorized hub of meaning, generativity, was uniquely associated with purpose, mattering, and EA. Studies 2-4 used cross sectional and daily diary methodology to directly support the claim that EA predicted global evaluation of MIL above and beyond the contribution of coherence, purpose, mattering. Finally, Studies 5 & 6 experimentally influenced EA by exposing participants stimuli high in intrinsic value (awe inspiring videos), and showed that the EA manipulation indirectly influenced MIL. Importantly, in both studies, these indirect effects were not found though other indicators of MIL. Overall, these findings support Frankl’s argument that valuing one’s experiences is uniquely tied to perceptions of meaning. Implications for the incorporation of EA as a primary indicator of MIL are discussed. This manuscript has not yet been published
Executive Particularism and Ministerial Selection in India
Authors: Ladwig Walter
Published: December 2019

Why do political parties in parliamentary systems undertake actions, such as joining a coalition government, that will entail significant costs for their members in subsequent elections? Recent research points to the incentive structures faced by differentially positioned members of a parliamentary party: unlike backbenchers, MPs who hold a ministerial portfolio can use the prerequisites of executive office to shield themselves from the costs of governance. This article tests the theory of executive particularism by examining the electoral fortunes of government ministers in India. Sitting government ministers are found to outperform other candidates, however, tests of causality fail to demonstrate that holding a ministerial portfolio causes this electoral benefit. Instead, it appears that a candidate’s electoral performance enhances the likelihood of being granted a ministerial portfolio in the first place. This finding raises questions about the generalizability of claims that party elites can use ministerial office to shield themselves from the costs of governing.

Authors: Purushothaman P. , Premaraian K.C , Ramakrishnan J. , Thyagarajan S. , Lakshminarayanan S. , Debasish L.
Published: December 2019

Background: Suicide is a major public health problem and a leading cause of death worldwide. In 2009, the suicide rate in Tamil Nadu and in Pondicherry was 21.5 per lakh and 47.2 per lakh population respectively. This is more than four times the rate as compared to the national level. Suicidal attempts are 20 times higher than the completed suicides. Mixed-method design gives better understanding of the complexity of the path from suicide ideation to suicidal attempt. 

Materials and methods: A (QUAN – QUAL) Sequential Explanatory design was used. Among 200 patients admitted for attempted suicide in JIPMER and Indira Gandhi Government Hospital and Post Graduate Institute Pondicherry were assessed for the reasons for attempting suicide using a semi-structured questionnaire. For a subsample of 40(20%) In-depth interview was done to explore and understand the reasons and the undermined situation associated with attempted suicide at their residence.

Results: Among the study subjects (n = 200), more than half were in the age group of 20-29 years, mean (± standard deviation) age of suicide attempt was 26 ± 9.1 years. Commonest reason (precipitating factor) for attempting suicide was verbal abuse, most often by parents (31.9%). Other precipitating factors were physical abuse, illness, marital conflict, family related problem, etc. On IDI, it was found that there were several, background factors (like chronic ill health; loss of family member, delayed marriage, alcoholism, and heavy debt), aggravating factors (like verbal or physical abuse, neighborhood influence, guilt), and protective factor (like religious affiliation, motherhood feel, caring and loving parents). A conceptual diagram was generated depicting the imbalance between the protective and aggravating factors acting on the background factors before the execution of a suicide attempt. In the presence of background factor, the suicidal ideation progressed to suicidal intention and ended in attempt. Not all suicide attempts were preceded with suicidal intention or ideation. Some attempts occurred as an impulsive thought or to threaten the family member.

Conclusion: There is lot of scope to reduce the suicidal attempts in our country. Opportunistic screening should be done to identify any psycho-social issues among patients attending OPD. Strong social support and enabling environment should be provided for counseling individuals with suicidal ideation and intentions.

Authors: Mathew Elsa , Mukkadan J.K.
Published: December 2019

Background: Cardiovascular disease is one of the leading causes of mortality and morbidity in India and worldwide. Hypertension is a major public health problem because of its high frequency and concomitant risk of cardiovascular disease, kidney disease, and stroke. World Health Organization named it a Silent killer as hypertension is asymptomatic during its clinical course. Experimental evidence supports a role for oxidative stress in vascular injury and hypertension. This study was undertaken, to compare the serum levels of malondialdehyde (MDA) and super-oxide dismutase (SOD) among normotensive, prehypertensive and hypertensive subjects.

Materials and methods: In this cross-sectional study, 34 normotensives, 44 prehypertensive and 45 hypertensive subjects were included. The participants were subjected to selection protocol consisting of physical examination and biochemical analysis. All subjects underwent blood pressure measurement, total cholesterol, and oxidative stress marker estimation, especially SOD and MDA. The comparison of parameters between the group was carried out using One Way ANOVA. The correlation between the parameter was analyzed by Karl Pearson Correlation Coefficient using SPSS 20.0.

Result : The MDA (nmol/ml) in normotensive, prehypertensive and hypertensive patients was 2.55±0.072, 3.43±0.44 and 4.01±0.37 respectively. SOD (U/ml) level in normotensive, prehypertensive and hypertensive patients was 13.47±1.96, 11.57±0.81, and 8.52±1.78 respectively. Systolic and diastolic blood pressure had a negative correlation with SOD. MDA levels show a positive correlation with systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure. Total cholesterol had no significant with SOD and MDA.

Conclusion: The present study showed a strong association of oxidative stress with systolic and diastolic blood pressure.

Published: December 2019

Background: Mobile phones have become an indispensable part of modern human life. With the ever-increasing utilization of smart phones, several psychological & behavioural problems have emerged. Excessive use of smart phones has also led to poor academic performance among students. Keeping all these points in mind, a study was conducted in professional colleges to obtain base line data. Objectives: To assess the usage pattern of smart mobile phone among students of professional colleges and to evaluate the mobile phone dependence in students of professional colleges.

Materials and methods: In Visakhapatnam, a cross-sectional study was conducted among 100 Medical & 100 Engineering students selected by random sampling technique. Data were collected using a pre-designed& pre-tested questionnaire from October 2018 to November 2018. SAS-SV Scale was used to assess the mobile phone dependence. Collation of data was done using inferential statistical methods.

Results: The study population of Medical group consisted of 32% males & 68% females; of these 45% were Day scholars & 55% were residents of hostels. The study population of Engineering group consisted of 63% males& 37% females; of these 76% were Day scholars & 24% were residents of hostels. The majority of students in both the professional groups were of the age group of 19 years. While assessing mobile phone usage pattern, it was found that age of initiation of mobile phone use was above15 years in 88.5 % in both the groups. 75%. of students in both the groups were using mobile phone between 1-6 hours a day. 45% of students were using mobile phone at home while 55%were using while on move. While 32% students had Addiction scale more than SAS-SV: cut off 31; factors like daily life Disturbance, withdrawal, cyber space-orientation relationship, overuse etc. 33% students were in the range of being at risk group (SAS-SV: 20 to 30). Out of 19 % Medical & 32% Engineering students who attended calls while driving, 26% & 25% continued conversation while still driving in both the groups respectively.131students often woke up from their sleep to check whether they had a Notification or a Missed call or SMS (P=<0.01). False perception of mobile phone ringing was present among 12% of Medical and 14% of engineering students.

Conclusion: The study showed an increased dependence of mobile phone use among Medical & Engineering students, which imparts a negative effect on physical and mental health & also poor academic performance.

Authors: Shrestha Prabhat , Shrestha P
Published: December 2019

Auto transplantation can be considered a valid and predictable treatment option for rehabilitating patients with permanent teeth loss when a suitable donor tooth is present. Once thought to have unfavorable prognosis, auto transplantation has achieved high success rates and is an outstanding option for tooth replacement. This case report illustrates auto transplantation of a fully developed third molar in the place of a first molar with the guidance of CBCT (Cone Beam Computed Tomography).The added advantages of CBCT helps to make the process of auto transplantation more predictable, easier and less time consuming which will encourage many dental surgeons to add this treatment to their armamentarium.

Objective: The objective of the study was to test the hypothesis, that umbilical cord blood crude serum applied topically with its high concentration of growth factors may promote an early healing for animal models with burn injury.

Methods:  Fresh human umbilical cord blood UCBS was collected and screened for transmitted diseases such as hepatitis B, hepatitis C and HIV. Mice and rabbits were scalded by boiling water and chemical burning by NaOH, then treated with UCBS. In comparison with a Cetrimide treated group and a control group (without treatment). The UCBS was subjected to microbial testing to demonstrate the presence or absence of extraneous viable contaminating microorganisms.

Results: Topical application of UCBS promoted the healing process; complete healing was seen after 10 days for the mice group and in 7 days in the rabbit group. Cetrimide group applied to the rabbit showed slow healing and needed 10 days for hair regrowth. Control group in both mice and rabbits showed very slow response and the burn area diameter remained the same for over 10 days, and no hair regrowth was obvious after 10 days.   

Conclusion: The results of the current study indicated that UCBS is a promising therapy for the healing of burns by boiling water and/or chemical substance, more clinical trials are needed to further explore the long-term effects after UCBS use.

Published: December 2019

La protección ambiental de los recursos ambientales debe representar una responsabilidad social y solo así, podría garantizarse el bienestar humano. El objetivo del estudio fue, estimar la sostenibilidad de la economía ambiental y economía ecológica. Se estableció de forma relacional una fórmula para la estimación sostenible de la economía ambiental y economía ecológica (ESEAEE) con base a cinco indicadores: 1ro) costo estimado del recurso (CER), 2do) costo de beneficio temporal (CBT), 3ro) impacto social atribuible (ISA), 4to) tasa de disponibilidad necesaria (TDN) y 5to) valor de demanda futura generacional (VDFG). Determinándose la siguiente fórmula ∑ (CER + CBT + ISA + TDN + VDFG) / 5. A partir de, la concentración de plomo y cadmio en las aguas del ecosistema San Juan de Santiago de Cuba, Cuba, se definió el criterio de medición (alta, media y baja) para la estimación sobre la acción del recurso (protección inmediata, protección no inmediata y conservado). Se observó que, las concentraciones de los metales superaron los límites permisibles donde no hubo diferencias estadísticamente significativas (p<0,05) entre las dos estaciones de muestreo seleccionadas. El valor obtenido de la ESEAEE fue de 0,85 significando, protección inmediata para la acción del recurso. Se concluyó que, la fórmula establecida permitió la comprensión sobre el uso racional y sostenible de los recursos ambientales donde se condicionó un mismo escenario de pensamiento que pueda valorarse en el presente (Economía Ambiental) y para el futuro, mostrándose más preocupación y compromiso (Economía Ecológica).

Published: December 2019

Se realizó un estudio longitudinal prospectivo a fin de determinar la infectividad de los quistes de Sarcocystis sp. en alpacas en una ganadería de la sierra central del Perú. Mediante un diseño randomizado se seleccionaron 50 crías machos de alpacas, un mes después de la parición, los cuáles fueron sacrificados a razón de 3, en forma mensual, desde el nacimiento hasta el año de edad con la finalidad de detectar la presencia de micro o macroquistes en la musculatura esquelética y/o cardiaca. Grupos de perros, libres de parásitos, fueron infectados, mensualmente, con músculo cardiaco y esquelético de alpacas a fin de detectar la presencia de quistes o esporoquistes de Sarcocystis sp. en las heces. Los resultados obtenidos evidenciaron que las crías de alpacas presentaron quistes microscópicos, tanto en la musculatura cardiaca como esquelética a partir de los 4 meses de edad.  No se detectó quistes macroscópicos visibles en la musculatura esquelética y/o cardiaca en dichas crías hasta los 12 meses de edad. Los grupos de perros alimentados con músculo cardiaco y/ o esquelético infectados con microquistes de Sarcocystis sp. de alpacas, desde el nacimiento hasta el año de edad no lograron eliminar ooquistes o esporoquistes.
DESCRIPCIÓN DE LA PRESIÓN INTRAOCULAR (PIO) EN CONEJOS (ORYCTOLAGUS CUNICULUS (LINNAEUS, 1758)) SOMETIDOS A DOS PROTOCOLOS ANESTÉSICOS
Authors: Mori-Malaver Luz Diana , Alvarez-Begazo de Jara Verónica , Jara-Aguirre Mauricio
Published: December 2019

El presente trabajo tuvo como objetivo principal la descripción de la presión intraocular (PIO) en conejos (Orcytolagus cuniculus (Linnaeus, 1758)) sometidos a dos protocolos anestésicos. Los protocolos anestésicos 1 y 2 fueron de Meloxicam-Xilacina-Ketamina y Meloxicam-Diazepam-Ketamina respectivamente. Se trató de un estudio transversal de índole descriptivo únicamente, con una muestra de doce conejos divididos en dos grupos para el uso de los protocolos anestésicos 1 y 2 independientemente. Se realizó la medición de la PIO con un tonómetro de Shiotz a lo largo de la duración del cuadro anestésico en los minutos 5, 10 y 15. Posteriormente y a partir de las mediciones recabadas se determinaron las frecuencias estadísticas y los resultados obtenidos demuestran la reducción de la PIO significativa durante anestesia en ambos protocolos anestésicos, de manera especial al minuto 10 con mediciones de 9.017 y 9.442 mmHg considerando las medidas basales de 19.917 y 20.408 mmHg y un valor normal de PIO en conejos de entre 15 a 23 mmHg. El empleo de protocolos anestésicos compuestos por fármacos que disminuyen o ayudan a mantener baja la PIO como la Xilacina y el Diazepam, son utilizados en la práctica diaria con la ketamina como fármaco inductorio. Resulta importante considerar la PIO al momento de formular protocolos anestésicos en conejos, ya que un alza considerable en PIO podría significar la ocurrencia de un daño ocular o la exacerbación de alguna patología ocular previa a anestesia. Los resultados de este estudio significan un aporte a considerar al momento de establecer protocolos anestésicos en conejos y representan datos importantes para la formulación de nuevos trabajos de investigación en la misma área de estudio.
Relationship between H1 and H2 haplotypes of the 17q21 inversion and pregnancy loss in Bosnian population: A case - control study
Authors: Adler Grazyna , Mahmutbegović Emir , Uzar Izabela , Adler Mateusz , Mahmutbegović Nevena
Published: December 2019

The 17q21.31 band is one of the most structurally complex and evolutionary dynamic regions of the genome. Frequencies of two single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs): rs9468 and rs1800547 determine worldwide distribution of H1 and H2 haplotypes. Recent studies have demonstrated that H2 haplotype is ancestral in hominoids and under positive selection in European population. The role of non-inverted orientation (H1 haplotype) and inverted orientation (H2) remains unclear, where it is suggested that mothers who are H1H2 heterozygotes on average tend to have more children than H2H2 homozygotes. We investigated the prevalence of the inverted 17q21 haplotype in 154 women with pregnancy loss and 154 mothers with at last one live-born child, mean age: 33.0 (±5.4) y/o and 31.4 (±6.7) y/o. All 308 women were of Bosnian origin from Sarajevo. Following DNA extraction from buccal swabs, the genotyping was performed. For statistical analysis R CRAN software was used. Haplotypes distribution was compared between groups. In women with and without pregnancy loss we identified: 74.7% and 79.2% H1H1, 24.0% and 17.5% H1H2 and 1.3% and 3.3% H2H2 haplotypes. There were no significant differences between the distributions of haplotypes in women with and without pregnancy loss. Statistically significant difference between the average number of children in women with H1H2 haplotype (navg. = 1.54) in comparison to women with H2H2 haplotype (navg. = 1.29), was not found. Haplotype H2 of the 17q21.31 inversion was not linked to pregnancy loss and number of children in Bosnian women.
EXAMINING THE EVOLUTION OF WAQF REGULATIONS IN SELANGOR: AN ANALYSIS OF THE GOVERNANCE FRAMEWORK AND TRANSFORMATIVE APPROACH
Authors: Abdul Manaf Zati Ilham , Syed Abdul Kader Sharifah Zubaidah , Mohamad Nor Asiah
Published: December 2019

The inadequacy of comprehensive laws for Waqf administration is one of the main issues that has limited the development of Waqf in Malaysia. Whilst most states in Malaysia rely on their Administration of Islamic Law enactments, in 1999 Selangor pioneered a Waqf enactment which specifically oversees Waqf administration and management. With the promulgation of the Selangor Waqf Enactment 1999, the administration of Waqf in Selangor became more regulated and structured. However, as matters pertaining to Waqf practices became more complex, Selangor repealed its 1999 Waqf Enactment and replaced it with the 2015 Waqf Enactment. This research therefore analyses the evolution of Waqf in Selangor through the two respective enactments, by identifying the changes in practices and scrutinising the rationales for the development of the laws. It also analyses how the laws have impacted the Waqf governance framework in the state. By assessing the position of the 2015 Waqf Enactment, it determines whether the current legislative demand posed by Waqf development in the state is met and whether the change in approach should be followed by other states in Malaysia. Doctrinal legal research is utilised to examine the two enactments respectively. Legislative Assembly Proceedings related to the promulgation of the respective enactments were also examined to further understand the reasoning behind the repeal and the introduction of certain provisions. It is found that although the 2015 Waqf Enactment is more comprehensive than the 1999 Waqf Enactment, further improvements can be made to better achieve transparency and accountability on the part of the Waqf administrators.

It is shown that an increase in the heat treatment temperature leads to an increase in the degree and temperature range of fuel decomposition, an increase in the specific heat of thermal decomposition, a decrease in hydrophilicity, and an increase in ash content. The degree of decomposition of torrefied biofuel with an increase in the treatment temperature within the indicated limits decreased from 7.81 to 4.89%, which indicates an insignificant balance of hemicellulose. Heat treatment caused an increase in hydrophobicity, which manifested itself in a 2.8-fold decrease in the equilibrium moisture content of biofuel torrefied at 290 °С. Due to the invariability of the mineral composition and the decrease in dry weight, the ash content in torrefied fuel is higher than in the original. The specific heat of thermal decomposition of biofuel torrefied at 290°С increased by 65.4% compared to the initial one. The study of the method of torrefaction of biofuels at atmospheric pressure in a gaseous environment formed in a confined space during the thermal decomposition of organic substances, showed its effectiveness and the possibility of using it for heat treatment of biomass without the use of inert gases.

Authors: Ірина Ворович
Published: December 2019

The problematic issues of the state examination of cultural values and art objects are considered. The term "art objects" is defined as modern original works of painting, drawings, sculptures, original works of decorative and applied arts, artistic compositions from any materials, craftsmen musical instruments that do not fall under the notion of "cultural values". The article presents an overview of the shortcomings of the conduct and provision of state art examination that experts, art critics and requisitioners of expert evaluations are facing. During the research, the approach of generalized methodological principles (practices and laws) was used, which is based on the consideration of art criticism as a set of general scientific qualities, the interaction of the legislative system and society; hierarchy; Considering the system as a dynamic integrity, which should develop in conditions of modern changes and requirements of others state formation and society.
School as a subject of scientific study
Authors: Олена Дмитрієва
Published: December 2019

This research will focus attention on the phenomenon of the composers school, which takes up a prominent place in the history of our culture and is recognized by us as a cultural occurrence that requires a thorough study. For many centuries the history of culture and art has been reflected in the aspirations of artists to identify and establish their creative achievements in society. The work of the artist has always played a significant role in society. It was never confined to creativity alone, but persistently pursued its spiritual ideals, attracting like-minded people and followers. At the same time, the position of an artist in the society depended on historical and political circumstances, which dictated the attitude of one or another circle of society to art in general and the work of an individual artist, poet, sculptor, composer, etc. Each culture disseminates value orientations based on achievements in various fields of science and art, transforming the individually acquired experience into the historical projection of the universal. The purpose of this article is to uncover the notion of a composers school as a normative-value system, which is aimed at the formation and preservation of professional experience and the study of its connection with a scientific school.

Necropolis of the Assumption Cathedral of the Kiev Pechersky Monastery after the adoption of Christianity by Kievan Rus from Byzantium
Authors: Ольга Сіткарьова
Published: December 2019

On the basis of archival sources and the results of recent archaeological research of the cathedral, the formation of the necropolis of the Assumption Cathedral in the time of Kievan Rus was studied. It was established that during this period some descendants of the two sons of the Grand Duke of Russia Vladimir (Vasily) Svyatoslavich, who were born from the marriage of the prince with Rogneda, daughter of the Prince of Polotsk Rogvolod: Izyaslav and Yaroslav Vladimirovich, were buried in the church. The descendants of the mother’s brother Vladimir Svyatoslavich also slept here. An assumption is made about the possibility of burial in the cathedral of individuals whose names are not mentioned in the annals in this connection.
Layout as an art of text design: functional features
Authors: Ігор Шалінський
Published: December 2019

In the article it is noted that the layout, as an important component of the integral composition in text design, is expressed through a system of necessary forms and conditioned by a certain content of the composition. It is pointed out that the culturological aspect of the layout art requires clarification of the terms used in the literature, and requires detailed research in the direction of understanding the integrity of the artistic composition.. The topicality of the study stipulated the disclosure of the layout specificity in the text design and the visual art present in it as an integral part of the text. The article has been elaborated taking into account the actual scientific issues and aims at disclosing the functional features and fundamental sources. The scientific novelty of the research consists in the characterization of the layout as the art of text design and revealing this process from the point of view of art criticism, and hence the analysis of scientific materials and proceedings related to the text layout. The research focuses on the layout and its design, which is a complex process of the actions of designer artists, in particular of the technical direction. A comprehensive evaluation of the materials provides an opportunity to take a fresh look at the numerous artistic features leading to new research results in the field of text design and editing from the point of view of art criticism. Layout is a complex and creative process, which should take into account a number of principles, namely: the principle of structural analysis, the principle of objectivity, the principle of comprehensiveness and multifactority. The result of the achievement of a specialist who is engaged in text design must take into consideration a certain functional interaction of the figurative content and culture, which reflects the achievements in contemporary book publishing and provides the highest spiritual and aesthetic quality of the publication. Modern computer technology provides an unlimited number of options for the layout, page makeup and printing of the publishing design of any product. The layout design process consists of three successive stages: 1) organizational and preparatory stage; 2) editing and matching of text and colors and their design; 3) final stage (technical editing). The prospect of using the research findings is the inclusion of the proposed principles in the process of training designers and editors who are engaged in text processing and layout design, which should pay particular attention to the layout design process, including successive steps to be taken as the basis.

Methodological Expansion of the Semantic Boundaries of Scenic Art Analytics: Interdisciplinarity and Paradigm
Authors: Світлана Шумакова
Published: December 2019

The author attempts to consider the scenic art from the standpoint of the cultural approach, which implements the analysis of the subject in the cultural and historical context and forms the interdisciplinary and universality of cognitive tools.Within the framework of the basic methodological basis in the field of cultural understanding of the performing arts, a categorical tool has been singled out — a cultural paradigm. The author of the study, based on a synthesizing analysis and taking into account the set goal, interprets the cultural paradigm. The cultural paradigm is a kind of historical and cultural matrix consisting of ordered, mobile elements of culture and including the totality characteristic of the historical stage.At the same time, the mentioned matrix is not a constant formation, but a variable that varies from epoch to epoch. Accordingly, these are ideas about the cultural paradigm as about the aesthetic richness of reality of a particular cultural and historical epoch, the totality of all the philosophical and aesthetic programs of historical time - the range of historical and cultural ideas and beliefs taken in their synchronous integrity.The “cultural paradigm” unites mobile elements and reveals the specifics of time cycles that replace each other, which determines the change of cultural paradigms. The change of cultural paradigms is a shift of meanings, the generation of cultural innovations, the repression and replacement of elements of the old cultural paradigm of the new. Theater art as a cultural phenomenon is a peculiar phenomenon that reflects the type and characteristics of culture in a certain cultural and historical epoch represented by the stage language, which is a means of transmitting culturally significant information, objective cultural meanings of a certain epoch, thanks to which culture acquires its legal forms, becoming by reality. The paradigmatic viewpoint can not only productively interpret the historical and cultural dynamics of the evolution of scenic art in the context of a specific area of values, but also specify the prognostic potential of evolution.
