Personal anxiety in adolescence is largely determined by psychological factors (personal, adaptive, motivational), and the correction of personal anxiety in adolescents is possible by combining two areas of work: reducing the effects of psychological factors on its occurrence; development of constructive forms of behavior in psychogenic situations, in conditions of increased anxiety through the use of music therapy. The aim of the study is to study the state of anxiety in adolescence after psychocorrection by music therapy. A set of methods was used to study the psychological features of anxiety in adolescents, ways to overcome and level before and after the psychocorrection program. There are a number of positive changes in the indicators of personal and motivational factors of anxiety: an increase in self-esteem and responsibility, increased self-esteem, which, in turn, led to a decrease in the difference between this indicator and the level of claims, a change in attitude realistic type, changing the distribution of affiliation motives and achieving in favor of the motive of the desire to accept and the desire to succeed, respectively. The effectiveness of the corrective effect was manifested in the change in the distribution of subjects by levels of anxiety. A high level of personal anxiety was recorded, after the implementation of the program it halved. During the study, a number of positive changes in the indicators of personal and motivational factors of anxiety were recorded. The results show, however, that psychocorrectional work with music therapy is effective in the work of a psychologist. The obtained results can be used both during the training of future psychologists, the development of a psycho-correctional program and during family counseling.

The article considers general psychological and methodical patterns of mathematics teachers’ professional reflection in the system of methodical work. It proves the hypothesis that one can model and implement specific psychological and pedagogical conditions, thus promoting the development of professional reflection. Besides, the article shows that the specified pedagogical conditions for the successful development of professional reflection of teachers of mathematical disciplines in the system of methodical work are: ensuring awareness of the teacher of mathematical disciplines of the content, structure and means of development of professional reflection; formation of an objective self-assessment of the personality and own professional activity of teachers of mathematical disciplines; introduction of individual and group means of development of professional reflection in the system of methodical work of pedagogical college; creation of a reflective environment in the system of methodical work of a pedagogical institution. Psychological and pedagogical means for the development of professional reflection of teachers of mathematical disciplines in the system of methodological work of a pedagogical college are: means of individual reflection (repetition technique, counselling, individual reflection games, solving reflective problems, keeping a reflection diary); collective means of developing professional reflection of the teacher (reflective debates, reflex interviews, reflective classes, consultation, tutorial, group reflection games, development of programs for monitoring their (or colleagues) actions in professionally significant situations with subsequent analysis of the received materials, training on the development of professional pedagogical reflection); introduction of a special training course "Development of professional reflection of teachers of mathematical disciplines in the system of methodical work of the pedagogical college".

The article presents the results of the analysis of scientific research studying the problem of life success and the features of the ideas about it among students of different genders and specialties. The features of understanding of success, successfulness, success in life, as well as the process of achieving it, which is determined by personal motivation for changes and development, accompanied by the energy status of activity, a positive emotional state, leading to the achievement of the desired goal in a certain area of social life and the well-being of the individual, have been determined. The results of the ascertaining experiment confirm the research assumption that the peculiarities of students' ideas about success in life are determined by their gender and the choice of professional specialization. It was found that girls and boys mainly focus on material values, their own self-realization and career growth, which can hinder the maximum comprehensive implementation and high quality of life of the individual in the future. Achieving goals and money as part of life's success are often high on the minds of students, regardless of their specialization. The exceptions are lawyers, for whom self-realization is more important, TV journalists, for whom money comes first, and actors, for whom the most important thing is to satisfy their needs and respect others. Most students assess their level of life success as medium or low, which can reduce their level of motivation, self-esteem, self-efficacy in the implementation of aspirations and requires the development of special psychological recipes to optimize the process of achieving their life success.

Published: May 2021

Physicians’ communicative competence is of immense importance for their professional activity. The current study presumes that future doctors’ communicative competence correlates with their stress resistance which influences their professional performance of duties. The specific aim of our research was to conduct a thorough study of the communicative competence of future doctors with different levels of stress resistance. According to the analysis of the level of their stress resistance, seventy-seven senior students of the Donetsk National Medical University of the Ministry of Health of Ukraine were divided into three groups. Further, applying a set of appropriate psychodiagnostic methods and techniques, their communicative competence was evaluated. The results have proved that the research participants with a high level of stress resistance are more communicatively competent compared to the participants with average and low-level stress resistance. Our findings suggest that future physicians’ communicative competence, as it is closely connected with their stress resistance, needs more considerable attention of authorities in medical education. So, we speculate that introducing socio-psychological training sessions both to the curriculum and to the process of current physicians' professional development will contribute to the successful performance of future doctors’ professional duties under pressure, and their interaction with colleagues, patients, and their relatives.

The strategic management in the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine, which includes management decisions, is always associated with certain risks due to the high level of uncertainty in the internal and external environments. This totally applies to the decision-making process in project activities. At the same time, each alternative carries a greater or lesser risk of failure, wasted resources, effort and time. In this connection the article considers methodological issues of project management in the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine; a risk assessment model in the implementation of projects has been proposed and the risk impact on success probability of projects has been determined. The project management methodology depends on their scale, timing, location and conditions of implementation. But at all life cycle stages of any project, there will be problems associated with the presence of risks that will affect the project success negatively. One of the ways to reduce the risk in the project activities of organizations is to involve higher educational institutions, where significant scientific potential is concentrated. The article proposes the methodology for risk assessment of projects which are implemented in the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine together with the departmental educational institution which is based on probabilistic-statistical modelling using expert assessment. Taking into account that the activities of each of the project participants are associated with their own group of risks, the article identifies four main groups of risk factors.

The article presents the results of theoretical and empirical research of professionally important abilities and skills of a counseling psychologist. Based on the analysis of scientific achievements and the results of anonymous questionnaires, the classification of professionally important abilities and skills of a counseling psychologist by certain groups was carried out. Professionally important abilities of a counseling psychologist are presented in four areas - volitional, gnostic, speech and perceptual; and professionally important skills are presented in seven areas - gnostic, communicative, perceptual, didactic, technological, organizational, control and evaluation. It is emphasized that professionally important abilities and skills should be classified separately. Since the abilities are due to the natural inclinations of the individual and mental phenomena, and skills are developed, formed and improved during the life of the person. Abilities and skills are interconnected and interdependent.Classification of professionally important abilities and skills of a counseling psychologist by certain groups provides opportunities: 1) to most systematically present the necessary professionally important characteristics of a counseling psychologist, 2) to review educational training programs for psychologists; 3) select the necessary methods and techniques for the diagnosis and verification of these professionally important characteristics of the candidate for the position of " counseling psychologist". According to the results of a scientific study on the expert assessment of the reference level of development of a counseling psychologist of professionally important abilities and skills, it was found that respondents believe that these abilities and skills should have a very high level of development.
Strategie dziennikarzy i ich rozmówców w medialnym dyskursie publicznym
Authors: Pałuszyńska Edyta
Published: May 2021

The aim of the research was to analyze the texts with the use of communicative strategies. The author defines strategy as a plan of linguistic activity intended to reach a certain goal. The empirical availability of the strategy as a research tool is limited. Therefore, the texts were examined as communicative events (i.e. as – broadly understood – communicative situations, including their institutional, social, and cultural conditionings). The author assumed that linguistic strategies have several aspects: the textual, the interactional, the situational, and the contextual. These aspects serve as a basis for a typology of strategies. The research belongs to the area of text linguistics. The author puts special emphasis on a feature of text called discursiveness. Discursiveness connects the text with the parameters of the public discourse in the mass media. Some elements of the communication theory, media studies, sociology and political science were used to support the analysis of the situational conditionings of the analyzed utterances. The author adopts the genological perspective – she analyzed the texts as realizations of a particular genre. The basic terms used in the dissertation include discourse, situation, context, and strategy. The author uses these terms to construct her own methodology.
ЭКСПЕРИМЕНТАЛЬНОЕ ИССЛЕДОВАНИЕ ВЛИЯНИЯ ЗАБОЙНОГО ДАВЛЕНИЯ ДОБЫВАЮЩИХ СКВАЖИН НА ВЫРАБОТКУ ЗАПАСОВ ИЗ СЛОЖНОПОСТРОЕННЫХ КАРБОНАТНЫХ КОЛЛЕКТОРОВ
Authors: Мартюшев Дмитрий Александрович
Published: May 2021

Актуальность работы обусловлена тем, что при разработке сложнопостроенных карбонатных залежей зачастую возникают сложности, связанные с системой поддержания пластового давления и выбором оптимальных технологий, направленных на эффективную выработку запасов нефти. В данных условиях для поддержания уровня добычи на рентабельном уровне необходимо оптимизировать забойные давления скважин. Нефтяным компаниям, разрабатывающим карбонатные залежи, стоит обращать внимание на величину оптимального забойного давления, которая обеспечивает наиболее рациональную выработку запасов. Несмотря на то, что данный вопрос рассматривается достаточно долгое время многими отечественными и зарубежными учеными, он на сегодняшний момент времени остается нерешенным и в то же время имеет значительную научную и практическую значимость. Целью работы является обоснование значения оптимального забойного давления добывающих скважин и его влияния на выработку запасов из сложнопостроенного карбонатного коллектора Гагаринского нефтяного месторождения. Объект: карбонатная залежь Гагаринского нефтяного месторождения. Методы: фильтрационные установки с моделированием пластовых условий УИК-5ВГ и AFS-300; использование гидродинамического симулятора Tempest версии 8.3.1 компании Roxar. Результаты. Смыкание естественных трещин приводит не только к снижению производительности скважин и к неполной выработке запасов нефти в зоне дренирования, но и к низкой эффективности применяемых мероприятий, а также к ухудшению гидродинамической связи между скважинами. Следовательно, в данных условиях важным и необходимым является обоснование оптимальных забойных давлений добывающих скважины на начальных этапах разработки карбонатных залежей. Проведенные лабораторные исследования и расчеты с помощью геолого-гидродинамической модели карбонатной залежи, которая учитывает особенности строения пустотного пространства, показали практическое значение (выражается в увеличение добычи нефти) оптимизации забойного давления добывающих скважин, эксплуатирующих карбонатные трещиноватые коллектора. Проведенный расчет экономической составляющей оптимизации (регулирование величины забойного давления) работы трех добывающих скважин Гагаринского месторождения позволит дополнительно получить 19,5 млн р.

Micronized purified flavonoid fraction (MPFF) is the original phlebotropic drug. Its marketed form (Detralex®) consists of 90% diosmin and 10% of other flavonoids. Calculated as hesperidin, it is the most widely used drug today. Diosmin and hesperidin, which are parts of the majority of venoactive drugs, are sparingly water-soluble compounds, and this feature can effect on their clinical efficacy. One of the ways to increase the solubility of these compounds leading to an increase in bioavailability, is the micronization of the active ingredients.

The aim of the investigation is a comparative determination of the dynamics and dissolution efficiency of the drugs containing bioflavonoid fractions in the dissolution test, as well as the analysis of the micronization degree and its impact on technology and biopharmaceutical parameters.

Materials and methods. A biopharmaceutical release profile was determined using HPLC. Disintegration, characteristics of the shape and size of the tablets’ particles were determined according to the methods of the State Pharmacopoeia of the XIV-th edition.

Results. The objects created with the use of diosmin and hesperidin, have been considered in detail. The role of technological solutions in relation to the corresponding dosage forms is notified. Detailed biopharmaceutical characteristics have been established with a choice of HPLC-based release control methodology. All the drugs in this group have a low water solubility leading to the maximum bioavailability for Detralex® which is about 1.26%; and no more than 0.2% for other analyzed models.

Conclusion. Detralex® dominates among the analyzed objects (tablets) in terms of the release rate. With regard to the overall quantitative indicators of release, the actual numbers are quite low, which is associated with the poor water solubility of the active substances.

The aim of the study is an experimental confirmation of the use of a new combination of biologically active substances with tonic and antioxidant effects. This combination contains acetylcysteine in its composition to reduce the severity of psychoneurological consequences of alcohol intoxication.

Materials and methods. The study was conducted on male Wistar rats. The post-intoxication state was simulated by a single injection of ethanol (3 g/kg, intraperitoneally). Half an hour after awakening, the rats were divided into groups, which were injected with saline, acetylcysteine (1 g/kg), taurine (20 mg/kg), caffeine ( 20 mg/kg), succinic acid (100 mg/kg), lipoic acid (100 mg/kg), pyridoxine (400 mg/kg), or a combination of acetylcysteine with all these substances taken in a twice lower dose (except taurine). Before the treatment and 3 hours after it, the degree of neurological disorders was fixed according to the Combs and D'Alecy scale, in the Open Field test and the Adhesion test. Then the animals were euthanized to assess the level of glutathione, triglycerides and malondialdehyde (MDA) in liver homogenates, to determine the activity of enzymatic antioxidant systems and serum aminotransferases.

Results. In the animals injected with alcohol, there were evident signs of neuropsychiatric disorders, manifested in a low motor activity and a decrease in fine motor skills. This state did not change after an oral administration of saline. After the administration of acetylcysteine, taurine, caffeine, succinic and lipoic acids, pyridoxine and, to a greater extent, their compositions, the compensation of neuropsychiatric disorders and improvement of fine motor skills were notified. In the liver of these animals, the levels of glutathione, MDA, triglycerides, and the activity of antioxidant defense enzymes corresponded to the physiological norm.

Conclusion. The introduction of a combination of acetylcysteine with taurine, caffeine, pyridoxine, lipoic and succinic acids after an acute alcohol intoxication, to a greater extent than each of the substances separately, contributes to the function retention of the antioxidant system of hepatocytes. Besides, it reduces the level of their dystrophic changes and leads to a decrease in the severity of psychoneurological disturbances in the experimental animals.
Bibliology in Germany — origins, developments and current state
Authors: Engl Elisabeth
Published: May 2021

From its origins in the early modern period up until today, German bibliology has undergone a huge transformation both in terms of its relationship to other subjects and its research areas. The article describes the development of bibliology in Germany from its beginnings in bibliographic and librarian contexts, over its evolvement as a ﬁeld of study in its own rights in the late 18th century, until its current situation as a university subject. Today, German book science is a relatively small discipline which might proﬁt from integration in broader media studies already proposed a decade ago. It has links to many other humanities subjects, especially librarian, literary, linguistic and cultural studies, and sees its task in integrating interdisciplinary research on the book instead of monopolising it. Due to the lack of an overall book theory or model, this also means making use of the research approaches of these adjoining disciplines whenever they seem promising. The bibliological studies on all aspects of books, implicitly oriented on the steps of production, distribution and reception of books and conducted by the few professorial chairs of book science, are complemented by several non-university institutions and research groups.
The impact of extra-linguistic factors on the contemporary situation of the Polish language in Lithuania
Authors: Dawlewicz Mirosław
Published: May 2021

Researchers of the Polish social environment claim that the development of the Polish language outside of Poland depends on such extra-linguistic factors as: 1) political status of the polonocentric community, 2) the origin of the community in relation to the processes of indigenisation and migration (emigration), 3) intentions towards the culture of the inhabited country, 4) social status and social mobility, 5) legal standards related to the communicative community, 6) the degree of community cohesion, 7) generational differences, 8) history of formation and development. Taking into consideration the above-mentioned statements, one can affirm that the Polish minority in Lithuania has autochthonic traits, and is distinguished by the degree of spatial concentration and preservation of the autonomous character of the culture. The behaviour of the identity and language are influenced by such institutions as school, church, and various socio-cultural institutions, which integrate Poles as a national minority. Among these objective factors, school is the most important institution, because it allows preserving written language. Written language is becoming a tool for cultural development and allows further preservation of multilingualism.

Etnografia hiper-realista: uma proposta para pesquisar processos de ensino e aprendizagem
Authors: Couceiro Luiz
Published: May 2021

Neste artigo proponho o conceito de etnografia hiper-realista para fazer pesquisas em processos de ensino e aprendizagem, com foco em antropologia para turmas de graduação. Os argumentos para sustentar tal proposição têm por base discussões recentes sobre etnografia, não somente como método de pesquisa, mas como maneira de desenvolver teorias e conceitos, e trabalhos sobre etnografia em educação, realizados no Brasil, principalmente. Além disso, me apoio em autores que orientam a metáfora que me inspirou na construção daquele conceito, na medida em que elucidam a proposta dos pintores hiper-realistas, em finais dos anos 1960 e durante a década de 1970. As reflexões aqui apresentadas foram construídas a partir de aulas lecionadas na cidade de Codó, localizada no leste do Maranhão.

On April 18, 2018, an earthquake hit Banjarnegara Regency, Central Java. The earthquake was measured M4.4 at a depth of 4 km and caused damages to buildings in several villages within Kalibening District. Predicting the future earthquake events is difficult. However, it is possible to estimate the potential damage caused by an earthquake event. FEMA has developed a methodology called HAZUS to estimate the potential loss and damage caused by earthquakes. This study compared the level of actual damage to buildings subjected to the 2018 Banjarnegara earthquake with the estimated damage to buildings obtained using HAZUS. The real damage is obtained from the field survey while the estimated damage is obtained from the HAZUS modeling. The object of this research is the unreinforced masonry low-rise buildings (URML) in Kasinoman Village, one of the villages that suffered the most subjected to the 2018 Banjarnegara Earthquake. The result of this study indicates the actual damage has a higher mean damage ratio (20,40 %) compared to the estimated damage (11.66%). HAZUS is developed according to the performance and experimental data of the buildings in the US therefore it might not be compatible with the building in Indonesia, especially surveyed buildings in Banjarnegara. The reason is the buildings in the US fulfilled the earthquake-resistant building provision meanwhile the surveyed buildings did not.

What Affects Maternal Response to Measles Vaccinations? Examining the Health Beliefs Model (HBM)
Authors: Grinberg Keren , Sela Yael
Published: May 2021

Background: Renewed measles outbreaks in recent years indicate that despite the routine availability of vaccines for a disease that is considered contagious, dangerous and deadly, many anti-vaccinationists do not vaccinate their children, which consequently endangers public health. This study aimed to investigate the factors that influence mothers to vaccinate their children, and whether the Health Belief Model (HBM) could predict compliance or non-compliance. Methods: This was a quantitative correlational research, utilizing a 40-item questionnaire administered to 181 mothers in Israel. Results: The findings indicated two main factors that affected mothers' intention to vaccinate their children against measles: first, their perception of the vaccine's advantages, and second, their perception of the severity of the disease. It was also found that the HBM variables significantly affected the intention to administer vaccines. Conclusion: Consequently, raising public awareness of the vaccine's advantages and importance to preventing mass infection, as well as attempts by the health system and practitioners to understand the motivations of anti-vaccinationists (including health beliefs and cultural sensitivities) could significantly increase the percentage of vaccinated children, and eradicate the measles epidemic.

Four new zoonotic coronaviruses outbreak occurred in the past two decades. The first coronavirus outbreak happened in 2003 and was named Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus-1 (SARS-CoV-1), followed by Middle East Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus (MERS-CoV) in 2013, and by Swine Acute Diarrhoea Syndrome (SADS) in 2017. In late December 2019, a patient from Wuhan Seafood Wholesale Market, China, was admitted to Huang's hospital with respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) of apparently unknown etiology, which later was diagnosed with SARS-CoV-2-induced coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19). SARS-CoV-2 was identified from another clade within the subgenus Sarbecovirus of the genus Betacoronavirus. This new CoV variant showed 96.2% similarity at whole-genome level to bat coronavirus. Based on genetic studies, pangolin, bats, and snakes are suspected to be a possible intermediate host of this virus, but further research is in progress to determine how this virus appeared and what is the exact source of infection. The SARS-CoV-2 outbreak has higher transmissibility, contagiosity and pathogenicity compared to that of SARS-CoV-1 and MERS-CoV. SARS-CoV-2 swiftly spread from continent to continent and is persistently causing a shocking global public health concern albeit the rate of infected cases and mortality is relatively decreasing over time. In this review, we provide an update on the origin, transmissibility, etiology, epidemiology, and evolution of COVID-19. We also highlight the current diagnostics, therapies, and prognostics for SARS-CoV-2. Eventually, we report and provide our humble opinion about the preventive strategies to control the ongoing related pandemic situation at global and individual levels, considering the international public health emergency and possible future epidemics and pandemics.

Type-2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) have been strongly associated with single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the TCF7L2 gene. This study investigated the association between rs12255372, rs7903146 and T2DM in a Ghanaian population. A case-control study design was used for this study. A total of 106 T2DM patients and 110 control participants were selected. Basic data collected included body mass index, blood pressure and socio-demographics. Fasting blood samples were collected and used for serum lipid analysis, HbA1c, plasma glucose estimation and DNA extraction. Common and allele-specific primers were designed for genotyping using the Modified Tetra-Primer Amplification assay. Associations were evaluated using logistic regression models. The rs7903146 risk variant was significantly associated with 2.16 vs 4.06 increased odds for T2DM in patients
Replacement Strategies for Animal Studies in Inhalation Testing
Authors: Fröhlich Eleonore
Published: May 2021

Testing in animals is mandatory in drug testing and the gold standard for evaluation of toxicity. This situation is expected to change in the future because the 3Rs principle, which stands for replacement, reduction and refinement of the use of animals in science, is reinforced by many countries. On the other hand, technologies for alternatives to animals experiments have increased. The necessity to develop and use of alternatives is influenced by the complexity of the research topic and also by the fact, to which extent the currently used animal models can mimic human physiology and/or exposure. Rodent lung morphology and physiology differs markedly for that of humans and inhalation exposure of the animals are challenging. In vitro and in silico methods can assess important aspects of the in vivo action, namely particle deposition, dissolution, action at and permeation across the respiratory barrier and pharmacokinetics. Out of the numerous homemade in vitro and in silico models some are available commercially or open access. This review discusses limitations of animal models and exposure systems and proposes a panel of in vitro and in silico techniques that, in the future, may replace animal experimentation in inhalation testing.

Published: May 2021

To investigate this suitability of Black Mustard (Brassica Nigra L.) and Camelina (Camelina Sativa L.) for pulp manufacturing the nitrate-alkaline method was used. The non-wood plants were characterized by chemical analysis, especially lignin, cellulose, ash, extractives and alpha-, beta-, gamma-cellulose. The pulp was cooked in 6% nitric acid and then underwent the extraction by 5% sodium-hydroxide and neutralized by 1% acetic acid. The cooked pulp was characterized by delignification degree – Kappa number. The laboratory sheets were made from this cooked pulp and they were characterized by tensile index, breaking length, smoothness and compared with commonly available papers.
Braiding Dynamics in Semiflexible Filament Bundles Under Oscillatory Forcing
Authors: Slepukhin Valentin M , Levine Alex J
Published: May 2021

We examine the nonequilibrium production of topological defects -- braids -- in semiflexible filament bundles under cycles of compression and tension. During these cycles, the period of compression facilitates the thermally activated pair production of braid/anti-braid pairs, which then may separate when the bundle is under tension. As result, appropriately tuned alternating periods of compression and extension should lead to the proliferation of braid defects in a bundle so that linear density of these pairs far exceeds that expected in thermal equilibrium. Secondly, we examine the slow extension of braided bundles under tension, showing that their end-to-end length creeps nonmonotonically under a fixed force due to braid deformation and the motion of the braid pair along the bundle. We conclude with a few speculations regarding experiments on semiflexible filament bundles and their networks.
