Más allá de los sistemas: el pensamiento de Jean Robert con la obra de Iván Illich
Authors: González Gómez Alberto Elías , Villegas Contreras Armando , Marcos Tueme Sylvia
Published: May 2024

A lo largo de la historia han existido amistades cuyos efectos trascienden la mera relación interpersonal, este es el caso de la amistad cultivada entre Iván Illich y Jean Robert. De esta amistad surgieron algunas de las críticas más lúcidas y radicales a la modernidad y sus excesos, así como los planteamientos para opciones creativas y conviviales vividas encarnadamente en el cuerpo y la comunidad. Este libro trata, en parte, sobre esta amistad. Los escritos que se presentan provienen de la lectura del último libro de Jean Robert, La edad de los sistemas en el pensamiento del Illich tardío. A dos años de la muerte de su autor, distintas personas apasionadas por los caminos que abren las ideas de Jean se reunieron para dialogar en torno a su último libro, así como a su legado. De tal manera que los protagonistas de este libro no son sus autores y autoras, quienes desde distintas perspectivas se aproximan a diversas problemáticas planteadas en el texto, sino el propio Jean Robert en diálogo con Iván Illich. En el libro se encontrarán reflexiones en torno a la era de los sistemas, la relación entre fe y crítica política, la pertinencia del género vernáculo, el problema de la tecnología, el derrumbe de las certezas modernas y otros temas más. Se trata de un libro necesario cuya aparición abrirá, en las mentes y corazones de quienes lo lean, senderos de pensamiento crítico e imaginación política importante.

Predicting Alzheimer's Disease Using Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning: A Comprehensive Analysis
Authors: Sekhar Guna
Published: May 2024

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a significant global health challenge, characterized by progressive neurodegeneration leading to severe cognitive decline. Early diagnosis of AD is crucial for effective management and treatment, yet it remains elusive due to the disease’s complex etiology and symptomatology. Recent advancements in Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) offer promising avenues for early prediction and diagnosis of AD. This paper explores various AI and ML methodologies applied to predicting Alzheimer’s disease, focusing on their roles in analyzing neuroimaging, genetic data, and electronic health records (EHR). Machine learning models, such as Support Vector Machines (SVM) and deep learning techniques, including Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN), are examined for their effectiveness in detecting early signs of AD. Natural Language Processing (NLP) methods are also discussed for their potential in analyzing speech and language patterns associated with cognitive decline. The paper highlights the challenges of integrating these technologies into clinical practice, such as data privacy concerns, algorithmic bias, and the need for significant computational resources. Additionally, it proposes future research directions, emphasizing the importance of multi-modal data integration, cloud-based solutions for scalability, and ethical considerations. Through this comprehensive analysis, the paper aims to demonstrate the transformative potential of AI and ML in improving early detection and management of Alzheimer’s disease, ultimately enhancing patient outcomes and reducing the societal burden of AD.
Large Language Models Can Infer Personality from Free-Form User Interactions
Authors: Peters Heinrich , Cerf Moran , Matz Sandra
Published: May 2024

This study investigates the capacity of Large Language Models (LLMs) to infer the Big Five personality traits from free-form user interactions. The results demonstrate that a chatbot powered by GPT-4 can infer personality with moderate accuracy, outperforming previous approaches drawing inferences from static text content. The accuracy of inferences varied across different conversational settings. Performance was highest when the chatbot was prompted to elicit personality-relevant information from users (mean r=.443, range=[.245, .640]), followed by a condition placing greater emphasis on naturalistic interaction (mean r=.218, range=[.066, .373]). Notably, the direct focus on personality assessment did not result in a less positive user experience, with participants reporting the interactions to be equally natural, pleasant, engaging, and humanlike across both conditions. A chatbot mimicking ChatGPT’s default behavior of acting as a helpful assistant led to markedly inferior personality inferences and lower user experience ratings but still captured psychologically meaningful information for some of the personality traits (mean r=.117, range=[-.004, .209]). Preliminary analyses suggest that the accuracy of personality inferences varies only marginally across different socio-demographic subgroups. Our results highlight the potential of LLMs for psychological profiling based on conversational interactions. We discuss practical implications and ethical challenges associated with these findings.
Investigating the Interplay of Resonance and Coupling in Neural Synchronization: A Comparative Study of Kuramoto Models
Authors: Montgomery Richard Murdoch
Published: May 2024

Understanding the dynamics of neural synchronization is vital for decoding the complex behavior of neural systems. One of the commonly employed mathematical frameworks for studying neural synchronization is the Kuramoto model. While coupling has been extensively studied in the context of synchronization, the role of resonance remains relatively unexplored. In this study, we investigate the interplay between resonance and coupling in the Kuramoto model by introducing an external driving force. The external driving force represents the resonant conditions, modeled as a sinusoidal function with specific amplitude and frequency. Our comparative analysis covers scenarios with and without the external driving force to reveal how resonance interacts with the inherent coupling of oscillators. We find that resonance can either amplify or dampen the synchronization, depending on the strength of coupling and natural frequencies of oscillators. This insight has implications for understanding not only neural systems but also other complex, oscillatory systems. The study opens new avenues for exploring the multi-faceted dynamics of coupled oscillators in the presence of external resonant forces.
Individual contributions to the spread of pidgins in 19th century North and West Africa
Authors: Nolan Joanna
Published: May 2024

This paper details the spread of two pidgins in North and West Africa in the 19th century. It highlights the contributions of two individuals, the US State Department envoy, William Brown Hodgson and the French colonialist, Louis Faidherbe. Although the two men never overlapped in Africa, both played a role in shaping the linguistic landscape through their documentation and diffusion of the pidgins and indigenous languages. The paper further suggests the link between the two pidgins, a connection that stems directly from the linguistic engagement and output of the two individuals. It suggests a circularity of language evolution and record across the Mediterranean.

Authors: Puthillam Arathy , Rezaei Sarah , Zahoor Zarnab , Mange Urvi , Kapoor Hansika
Published: May 2024

This study advances the exploration of food disgust by examining its relationship with political ideology and moral attitudes towards non-vegetarianism in India. Our non-experimental research delves into the influence of political ideology, vote preference, and trait disgust on aversion towards non-vegetarian food and its consumers, predicting their role in fostering disgust and perceiving these individuals as morally questionable in India. The study reveals insights into the complex relationships between political orientation, personal traits, and dietary attitudes. These findings emphasize the necessity of considering a broader array of factors beyond conventional variables in political and food psychology research, contributing to a more comprehensive understanding of how political ideology and disgust shape attitudes towards non-vegetarianism in India. Limitations have been discussed in detail.
Loneliness, World Beliefs, and Daily Social Interaction
Authors: Lemay Edward , Cutri Jennifer , Or Ronald Teng , Davis Alexander , Xiao Zizhong
Published: May 2024

Introduction: Lonely people often crave social connection, but their social interactions fall short of fulfilling their needs. Although loneliness has been associated with negative views of the world, it is not clear whether these world beliefs contribute to the unfulfilling social interaction patterns that tend to sustain loneliness. The current research examined the role of world beliefs in explaining the effects of loneliness on daily frequency and quality of interaction, and the implications for sustained loneliness over time. Methods: Both members of romantic couples (N = 472) completed a measure of world beliefs and daily assessments of social interactions with weak and strong ties over two weeks (daily N = 6,411). Results: Loneliness was associated with perceiving the world as generally worse, dangerous, and dull, and indirectly predicted reduced quality and quantity of social interaction via negative and dull world beliefs. In turn, the quality of interactions with strong ties predicted maintained loneliness a year later. Conclusion: Findings suggest that the negative subjective worlds inhabited by lonely people may partially explain their interaction patterns, which may forecast their continued loneliness.
The limitations of large language models for understanding human language and cognition
Authors: Cuskley Christine , Woods Rebecca , Flaherty Molly
Published: May 2024

Researchers have recently argued that the capabilities of Large Language Models (LLMs) can provide new insights into longstanding debates about the role of learning and/or innateness in the development and evolution of human language. Here, we argue on two grounds that LLMs alone tell us very little about human language and cognition in terms of acquisition and evolution. First, any similarities between human language and the output of LLMs are purely functional. Borrowing the “four questions” framework from ethology, we argue that what LLMs do is superficially similar, but how they do it is not. In contrast to the rich multimodal data humans leverage in interactive language learning, LLMs rely on immersive exposure to vastly greater quantities of unimodal text data, with recent multimodal efforts built upon mappings between images and text. Second, turning to functional similarities between human language and LLM output, we show that human linguistic behavior is much broader. LLMs were designed to imitate the very specific behavior of human writing; while they do this impressively, the underlying mechanisms of these models limit their capacities for meaning and naturalistic interaction, and their potential for dealing with the diversity in human language. We conclude by emphasising that LLMs are not theories of language, but tools that may be used to study language, and that can only be effectively applied with specific hypotheses to motivate research

Published: May 2024

Objectives: Conversations shape health behaviors. However, individuals vary in susceptibility to conversational influence and in their neural responses that track such influences. We examined whether activity in brain regions associated with social rewards and making sense of others’ minds was related to drinking following conversations about alcohol. We studied ten social groups of college students (total N = 104 students; 4760 total observations) across two University campuses. Methods: We collected whole-brain fMRI data while participants viewed photographs of the faces of peers with whom they tended to drink at varying frequencies (i.e., drinking vs. non-drinking peers). Next, using mobile diaries, we tracked alcohol-related conversations and alcohol use twice daily for 28 days. Results: On average, talking about alcohol was associated with a higher probability of drinking the following day. Controlling for baseline drinking, participants who responded more strongly to drinking peers—with whom they drank more frequently— in brain regions associated with social rewards and mentalizing showed higher susceptibility to conversational influence on drinking. Conversely, stronger neural responses to non-drinking peers—with whom they drank less frequently—decoupled the link between alcohol conversations and next-day drinking. Conclusions: These findings conceptually replicate prior findings linking peer conversations and drinking behavior in a longitudinal, ecologically valid setting, and provide new evidence that brain sensitivity to peers may exacerbate or buffer conversational susceptibility to drink.

Authors: Amir Aliana Shazma , Quayyum Che Muhammad , Md. Isa Evawaynie Valquis , Zaidi Zulaikha Rabitah
Published: May 2024

This research examines the complex link that exists between dividend yield and return on assets (ROA), audit quality, business size and liquidity among Malaysia's top 100 ranked companies in 2022. A statistically significant positive correlation has been shown between ROA and dividend yield, suggesting that increased profitability is generally associated with larger dividend yields. This research lends credence to the signaling theory, which holds that companies use their dividend policy to communicate to investors their financial stability and confidence. In a similar vein, there is a notable positive correlation between AQ and dividend yield, which emphasizes the importance of strong audit procedures in boosting investor trust and raising dividend payments. Additionally, the research reveals a noteworthy affirmative association between firm size and dividend yield, underscoring the influence of market capitalization on the determination of dividend policy. Consistent with signaling theory, larger corporations use dividends as a strategic way to communicate their commitment to shareholders because they are seen as more financially reliable. Furthermore, a strong positive correlation has been shown between liquidity and dividend yield, highlighting the crucial role liquidity plays in determining dividend payout policies and providing investors with a sense of financial safety. This study, which makes use of signaling theory, sheds light on how businesses strategically employ dividend policy to convey important information to the market, boosting investor confidence and improving market repute. The practical ramifications of these findings include enlightening investing strategies and giving investors insight into the factors influencing decisions about dividend policy. Theoretical contributions include deepening our understanding of the intricate relationship between dividend policy and financial indicators in the context of signaling theory and providing insightful information for further study.

Authors: Honchar L. , Afanasyev S.
Published: May 2024

Preschool age is the most favorable period for the development of a child's personality, physical and motor qualities. One of the tasks of working with children of older preschool age is to prepare them for a successful transition to systematic, organized schooling. Children's readiness for schooling determines the set of morphophysiological and psychological characteristics of children of older preschool age. Children's physical and motor readiness for learning characterizes their functional capabilities and state of health. One of the main indicators of children's physical and motor readiness for learning is the level of development of physical qualities and the technique of performing motor actions. The goal is to determine the influence of artistic gymnastics on the level of motor readiness of children 5-6 years old. Material and methods: analysis and generalization of scientific and methodological literature and Internet resources, pedagogical observation, pedagogical experiment, pedagogical testing, methods of mathematical statistics. The study was conducted on the basis of preschool education institutions No. 355 and No. 123. 80 children of the control and experimental groups, 40 each, took part in the study. Research results. The initial level of motor readiness of almost half of the children in both the control and experimental groups was at a low level. After the experiment, the percentage increase in motor readiness was significantly better (p<0.05) in the experimental group (13.9%) than in the control group (5.6%). Thus, the indicators in the experimental group increased from a low level to the average in 10.0% of children, and in the control group this indicator was 12.5%. On the other hand, 12.5% of children from the experimental group increased their indicators from average to high levels, while only 5.0% of children from the control group.
Current sports safety problems in Ukraine and the world
Authors: Domina A.A.
Published: May 2024

The article is devoted to the analysis and assessment of current problems and challenges faced by sports in Ukraine and the world, in connection with global crisis processes that lead to profound social changes. In recent years, the issue of sports safety in the world has become more relevant against the background of the COVID-19 pandemic, and in Ukraine due to military operations on its territory. Thus, security protocols are gradually undergoing changes and actions to ensure security of various levels are adapted to modern conditions. Safety instructions for mass sports events of various levels, orders of specialized services and ministries of various countries regarding the organization of events on their territory, government resolutions and laws regulating the safety of athletes, spectators and sports facilities were analyzed. Globalization processes are rapidly changing, which requires quick solutions without losing their quality. The topic of sports safety has become more relevant in recent decades. Sport is a global phenomenon that unites representatives of all social groups and strata. Although the official slogan of the international sports movement, which is supported by all its members, is: "Sports outside of politics", but at the same time, it is a powerful means of political influence and manipulation. History has seen many boycotts driven by political decisions in response to wrongful or military actions by one party against another. Everyone remembers the terrorist attacks committed at the Olympic Games and other international competitions. All this led to the intensification of the development of research in the field of sports safety. At the same time, sports competitions, especially international ones, attract the attention of a large number of spectators, which causes the desire of world political leaders, public figures, representatives of culture and art, etc. to participate in them.The study showed that the process of adaptation and response is imperfect and requires careful study and analysis, which determines the relevance of the topic.

Variability of games in the process of human development
Authors: Mudryk Serhii
Published: May 2024

The article focuses on the stages of gaming culture development from instinctively contemplative and copycat to socialization and conscious education through games. Special attention is given to the intergenerational transformation and gradual transition of game information from natural instincts to meaningful practical use of the game and expansion of game activities. The influence of the social environment on the development of game activities is revealed. The goal of the research is the historical analysis of the development of game activity, as the basis of regulation of cultural relations, in the process of human development. The scientific novelty consists in clarifying the historical stages of the game development, which is an internal necessity of the existence of a living organism, with the preservation of quality and a change in its social qualitative state. Conclusions. For millions of years a man, maintaining his biological basis, has transformed games from an instinct into a social phenomenon. In ancient times the game by its very nature was the imitation (observation of animal behaviour, natural phenomena) with elements of motional experience. In the process of industrial activity, with the change of social relations a man socialized the game, which became a necessary means of education and hardening of the body. With the change of social relations the role of a game, as the principle of spiritual, mental, intellectual and physical development of a man, gradually increased. Thanks to the subject endowed with thinking, who constantly replenished his life experience, the game became more meaningful and necessary. It acquired a potential opportunity to adapt to any climatic and geographical conditions. With each stage of human development the essence of the game as a social phenomenon was formed in a new way.

In modern health-enhancing physical culture the use of complex training sessions with successive tasks solving is mainly provided and almost no attention to complex training sessions with parallel task solving. In this regard, it is important to find out the possibility of building training sessions that would allow influencing the cardio respiratory system through the use of strength exercises.
The purpose of the study is to explore the characteristics of the load and heart rate changing in complex cardio-strength training sessions with parallel task solving.
Experimental total training sessions included a warm-up (10-12 min) and 6 local strength exercises divided into three pairs (biceps - triceps, deltoid - latissimus dorsi, rhomboid - pectoral muscles) performed as circuit training. The duration of cardio- strength sessions – 30 min., intensity – 12 RM, repetition – 4, rest – changing exercises.
A 62 years old man with high physical ﬁtness for this age took place in a research. The heart rate study was carried out by the POLAR cardio-tracker. The sound recording of the exercise commentary was simultaneously activated with the heart rate sensor. This made it possible to study the duration of exercises, rests and heart rate during each exercise.
Research has shown it is possible to ensure a cardiovascular reaction appropriate for cardio training by using strength exercises. But it requires certain resistance, repetition and rest between exercises at the training session. It is advisable to call such loads as cardio-strength loads. A person is able to provide the necessary duration of exercises and rests in such training sessions without a clock or sound leader.
The current heart rate during certain cardio-strength exercise is determined by the complex, ambiguous interaction of several factors. For loads of 1/3 of 12 RM (4 repetitions per set) the most impotent is the initial position. In the initial position the most influential is the body position while performing exercises (lying, sitting, bending over and standing); the activity of the synergist muscles is also important here. In addition, the heart rate reaction depends on a resistance, the preliminary exercise and the activity during the changing exercises.

The article reveals current issues of forming the high level of technical fitness of athletes in Ukrainian belt wrestling. The main task of a technical training of an athlete is the formation of skills and abilities to perform competitive actions that allow to effectively use the athlete's capabilities in the process of sports activity. Technical skills training in any sport is aimed at teaching an athlete the technique of movements, improving them to perfection. The purpose of the research: to determine the influence of sports games on the formation of the level of technical skills of athletes in Ukrainian belt wrestling at the stage of preparation for major competitions. Research methods: analysis and synthesis of literary sources, methods of observation and comparison, pedagogical research methods (testing of physical qualities: coordination, speed and strength, power abilities, flexibility), medical and biological research methods, methods of mathematical statistics. Conclusions: the level of athletes' technical skills in the experimental group during the period of the pedagogical experiment by the indicator - throws of the partner, the speed of throws increased by 21.8% in relation to the control group - 4.7%.
ЖАНРОВО-СТИЛЬОВІ ПАРАДИГМИ ЗАХІДНОУКРАЇНСЬКОЇ ТА ПОЛЬСЬКОЇ ПРОЗИ 20–30-Х РОКІВ ХХ СТОЛІТТЯ

Компаративні студії в царині українсько-польських культурних взаємин є важливою ланкою поглиблення взаєморозуміння і взаємодії двох народів, близьких територіально, ментально й духовно. Особливо ця важливість постає актуальною в час протистояння спільному ворогові, що зазіхає на територію, національну ідентичність, духовні цінності українців. Дослідження  спільного й відмінного в парадигмі літературного процесу міжвоєнного двадцятиліття двох народів є значущим на сьогодні ще й тому, що дає можливість у минулому побачити певні перспективи.
Пропонована стаття має за мету з’ясувати подібні й відмінні закономірності в розвитку  західноукраїнської та польської прози 20-30-х років ХХ ст. на рівні тематики, стилів і жанрів, детермінованість цих закономірностей суспільно-історичними чинниками.
У статті використано порівняльно-типологічний метод та культурно-історичну метдологію.
Новизна цієї літературознавчої студії якраз і полягає у синтетичному осмисленні спільного й відмінного у розвитку прози на теренах Польщі й Західної України (зокрема Галичини).
Відтак цим зумовлене й практичне значення цього дослідження: результати його можуть бути використані у подальших компаративних студіях, для аспірантів і докторантів, які займаються проблемами українсько-польських літературних зв’язків.
НАЦІОНАЛЬНІ ФОРМИ ТІЛЕСНОЇ ІКОНОТРОПІЗАЦІЇ В СУЧАСНОМУ ПОЛЬСЬКОМУ ТА УКРАЇНСЬКОМУ ХУДОЖНЬОМУ ДИСКУРСІ

У статті досліджуються форми тілесної іконотропізації крізь призму їх репрезентації в національних етнічних кодах, втілених у сучасному польському та українському постмодерному дискурсі. Об’єктом дослідження є роман «Солодка Даруся» Марії Матіос і «Правік та інші часи» Ольги Токарчук. Обрані твори дають змогу детально дослідити тему, оскільки репрезентації тілесного героїв у обох романах пов’язанi з національною матрицею та характерним етнокодом польської та української культур. Предметом аналізу є тілесні елементи героїв репрезентовані в романах. Серед методів дослідження  - компаративний, що в нашій науковій розвідці ґрунтується на порівнянні обраних романів у контексті національних особливостей польської та української культури. Компаративний метод є актуальним при дослідженні постмодерної літератури, оскільки в сучасному світі глобалізація зближує культури. Можемо визначити важливу роль герменевтичного підходу при дослідженні поетики іконотропізму у творчості обраних письменниць, зокрема цілісності образів, оскільки обидва романи розповідають про період з початку XX століття, але тим не менш із проекцією на сучасний світ. Також важливими є формальний та типологічний методи, що сприяють визначенню системних, структурних принципів тілесного іконотропізму в українській та польській літературних традиціях.
Як результат, на основі обраних романів простежується двосторонній зв’язок тілесного та національного, що певним чином іконотропізує «тіло нації». Проаналізовано схожі та відмінні риси іконотропізації тілесних елементів в образах героїв. Подібний аналіз допомагає відстежити іконічно-конвенційні особливості етнічні семіотики у конкретному контексті. Визначені завдання та висновки є актуальними для сучасних тенденцій європейської науки.
