PATRIOTIC EDUCATION OF YOUTH AS AN ELEMENT OF SCIENTIFIC AND EDUCATIONAL COOPERATION IN THE EURASIAN SPACE IN 2023. EXPERIENCE OF THE INSTITUTE OF EURASIAN AND INTERREGIONAL STUDIES OF THE RUSSIAN STATE UNIVERSITY FOR THE HUMANITIES
Authors:   Russian State University for the Humanities, Khanova Irina E.
Published: October 2024

The development of patriotic consciousness is one of the tasks of the educational process implemented by universities. The year of 2023 in Russia was declared the Year of the Teacher and Mentor, therefore, educational activities, the target audience of which are students of higher education institutions, attained a special importance. As an example of such activities, the author cites the events held in 2023 at the Institute of Eurasian and Interregional Studies of the Russian State University for the Humanities, which were attended by students, graduate students and staff of both the Russian State University for the Humanities and a number of universities of the Commonwealth of Independent States. Participants in the events discussed such topical issues of international relations as the protection of historical truth about the events of the Great Patriotic War, new challenges and threats to the sustainable development of Eurasian countries and mechanisms to counter them, Russia’s foreign policy at the present stage, the consequences of “color revolutions” for the Eurasian space, as well as the role of social and humanitarian sciences in the development and cooperation of the countries of the Eurasian space. The author comes to a conclusion that holding such events in a scientific-discussion format has a significant impact on the effectiveness of patriotic education of student youth.

Abstract
The Panel on Food Additives and Flavourings (FAF) provides a scientific opinion re‐evaluating the safety of the two food additives argon (E 938) and helium (E 939). Argon (Ar) and helium (He) are two noble gases, highly stable single atoms. Their chemical inertness is well known. Their physicochemical properties have served as a basis for their previous evaluations by SCF and JECFA, which have considered the use of these food additives safe even in the absence of a toxicological evaluation. No business operator or other interested party provided information in response to the call for data published by EFSA to support the re‐evaluation of these two food additives with respect to their identity and specifications, manufacturing process (including the identification and quantification of potential impurities) and how they are applied to food to exert their technological function. One business operator replied to the call for data issued by EFSA reporting use levels of E 938 as a packaging gas in one food category. Based on their physicochemical properties, both gases are considered by the Panel to be of low toxicological concern when used as food additives. No information was available on the potential presence of impurities of toxicological concern resulting from the manufacturing process(es) applied to the production of the food additives E 938 and E 939. The Panel however noted that a minimum purity of 99.0% is required to comply with existing specifications. The Panel concluded that the use of argon (E 938) and helium (E 939) as food additives does not raise a safety concern. The Panel recommended an amendment of the existing EU specifications to introduce the respective CAS numbers.

Nyugtalan láb szindróma és veseelégtelenség összefüggése
Authors: Sepp Yvette Nimol , Schneider Károly , Szakács Zoltán
Published: October 2024

A nyugtalan láb szindróma egy neurológiai mozgásos alvászavar, amelyre jellemzően lábban érzett paraesthesia és mozgáskésztetés nyugalomban jelentkezik az esti, elalvás előtti órákban, illetve nem sokkal elalvást követően, éjfél után, valamint mozgásra enyhül, az éjjeli alvást és a nappali teljesítőképességet jelentősen érintve. Az irodalomban többszörös evidencia szól amellett, hogy vesebetegekben gyakrabban fordul elő – jelen kutatás adatai szerint 55-60% az átlag populációbani 5-15%-hoz képest –, amely a két betegség etiológiai viszonyára enged következtetni. Mivel a több órán át tartó dialízis nyugalmat kíván, a kezelés sikerességét nagyban befolyásolja a nyugtalan láb szindróma jelenléte, így szűrése és kezelése nagyban képes javítani a betegek életminőségén.
Posthuman Ethics and Distributed Agency in Kazuo Ishiguro’s Klara and the Sun
Authors: Şencan Selin
Published: October 2024

This article discusses posthuman ethics in Kazuo Ishiguro’s Klara and the Sun by employing the concept of distributed agency. By examining the AI protagonist Klara, the study argues that Ishiguro redefines agency as a networked phenomenon involving both human and non-human actors, challenging traditional anthropocentric ethical frameworks. The novel suggests that ethical considerations in a posthuman world must account for this distributed agency, where human and AI entities co-create ethical dynamics. This study concludes that Ishiguro’s work not only critiques the limitations of human-centered ethics but also prompts a reevaluation of moral responsibility in a technologically mediated world. By positioning Klara and the Sun within the discourse of posthuman ethics, the article contributes to contemporary discussions on the ethical implications of AI and the evolving nature of agency.
Didem Madak Şiirinde Dişil Yazının İzleri: Kadınlık, Bellek, Beden ve Dilin Çok Katmanlı Temsili
Authors: Aydınalp Esra Başak
Published: October 2024

Bu çalışmada, Didem Madak'ın şiirleri, dişil yazı kuramı çerçevesinde derinlemesine incelenmiştir. Dişil yazı, kadınların ataerkil dil yapılarını sorgulayarak kendi deneyimlerini özgün bir şekilde ifade etmelerini sağlayan bir yazı biçimi olarak tanımlanır. Hélène Cixous(1975), Luce Irigaray (1977) ve Julia Kristeva (1974) gibi feminist teorisyenler tarafından geliştirilen bu kuram, Madak’ın şiirlerinde kendine güçlü bir yer bulur. Madak’ın şiirlerinde beden, sadece fiziksel bir varlık değil, aynı zamanda toplumsal, psikolojik ve sembolik anlamlar taşıyan, sürekli dönüşüm ve başkalaşım süreci içinde olan bir varlık olarak ele alınır. Beden, bireysel ve toplumsal belleğin taşıyıcısıdır; bu bağlamda, Madak’ın şiirlerinde beden, geçmiş travmaların ve deneyimlerin izlerini taşıyan bir alan olarak işlenir. Örneğin, Ah'lar Ağacı (2002) ve Grapon Kağıtları (2000) gibi şiirlerinde, bedenin sınırları zorlanarak, toplumsal normlarla sıkışmış bir kadınlık deneyimi şiirsel olarak ifade edilir. Dil, Madak’ın şiirlerinde merkezi bir rol oynar ve geleneksel anlam yapılarını sorgulayan bir araç olarak kullanılır. Madak, dilin sabit ve otoriter yapısını ironi, kelime oyunları ve yapısöküm yaklaşımı aracılığıyla kırar. Bu dilsel oyunlar, dişil yazının çok katmanlı yapısıyla uyum içindedir. Pulbiber Mahallesi (2007) gibi şiirlerde dil, anlamın sabitlenmesini reddeder ve çok katmanlı bir anlam dünyası yaratır. Toplumsal cinsiyet ve kadınlık deneyimi, Madak’ın şiirlerinde sadece tematik bir unsur olarak değil, aynı zamanda dilsel bir eleştiri aracı olarak da işlenir. Madak, geleneksel toplumsal cinsiyet rollerini sorgularken, bu rollerin dildeki temsilini de yeniden yorumlar. Kadınlık deneyimi, onun şiirlerinde bireysel bir hikâye olmaktan çıkıp evrensel bir tema haline gelir. Ah'lar Ağacı ve Grapon Kağıtları şiirleri, kadınlık deneyiminin dil aracılığıyla nasıl evrenselleştirilebileceğini gösteren örneklerdir. Sonuç olarak, Didem Madak’ın şiirleri, dişil yazı kuramı bağlamında bedenin, belleğin, dilin ve toplumsal cinsiyetin çok katmanlı temsillerini sunar. Madak, dişil yazının sunduğu yapısöküm yaklaşımıyla ele alındığında, çok sesli ve özgürleştirici dili kullanarak, kadınlık deneyimini derinlemesine işleyen bir anlatı oluşturur. Şiirlerinde toplumsal cinsiyetin dildeki temsilini sorgulayan ve yeniden inşa eden Madak, Türk edebiyatında dişil yazının güçlü bir temsilcisi olarak öne çıkar. Bu bağlamda, Didem Madak’ın şiirleri, kadınların sesi ve deneyimini merkeze alarak, dişil yazının dilsel ve tematik zenginliğini Türk edebiyatında etkileyici bir şekilde yansıtır.
Tragic Optimism in 500 Days of Summer and Her: A Comparative Analysis
Authors: Edman Timuçin Buğra
Published: October 2024

This article aims to investigate the portrayal of optimism in two modern films, Marc Webb’s 500 Days of Summer (2009) and Spike Jonzes’s Her (2013), using Viktor Frankl’s concept of optimism. The focus is on the characters’ quest for love and self-discovery in the midst of challenges and emotional turmoil. They present the idea of seeking purpose and personal development while experiencing highly complex emotions. Accordingly, this article scrutinises the storytelling techniques embedded in characters’ notions revealed through their progression in both films to display the intricacies of relationships in today’s world. Films play a role in deepening the grasp of the complicated themes of love, technology, and obsessive passion in today’s world, as well as shed light on persistent psychological challenges with modern ways of storytelling.
Sabahattin Ali’nin Rüzgâr Şiirine Ekoleştirel Bir Bakış
Authors: Akyüz Metin
Published: October 2024

İnsan hem sosyal hem de ekosistemin içine aldığı bir çevre içinde yaşar. Sosyal çevre edebiyatın en eski ve önemli konuları arasında yer alırken ekosistemik çevreye ilgisi son zamanlarda başlamıştır. Ekoeleştiri de bu ilginin bir ürünü olarak ortaya çıkmıştır. Disiplinlerarası bir yaklaşım olan ekoeleştiri ekosistemin sorunlarının edebi metinlerdeki sunumuna odaklanmaktadır. Sabahattin Ali, birçok eserinde sosyo kültürel çevrenin kuşattığı insanların yalnızlığı ve dramına yer vermiştir. Doğal olmayanın insana yabancılaşmayı getirdiğini; insanı mutsuz kıldığını neredeyse bütün yapıtlarında dile getirir. Sabahattin Ali, kültürel olana karşı doğal olanı ve doğayı bir seçenek olarak görür. Bu bağlamda Rüzgâr şiiri adeta onun tematik bir poetikasına dönüşmektedir. Ekoeleştirel açıdan incelenecek olan şiir karşıtlık ilişkileri içinde yükseklik alçaklık, kültür – doğa ile insan merkezlilik ve ekomerkezli ilişkiler açısından değerlendirilmiştir. Sonuç olarak, çözümlenen şiirde kültürel ve doğal değer kavramlarının çatışması ve karşılaştırmasına yer verilerek doğanın her şeye rağmen tartışmasız bir üstünlüğe sahip olduğu vurgusu yapılmıştır.
Critical Race Theory in Literature: In The Blood By Suzan-Lori Parks
Authors: Baykara Tuba
Published: October 2024

This study seeks to explore the fundamental principles of Critical Race Theory (CRT) and to use it as an analytical tool in order to discuss Suzan-Lori Parks’s play, In The Blood. Through the key tenets of CRT such as the systematic racism, race as a social construct, intersectionality and power structures, it is framed a comprehensive theoretical background for a literary analysis. Relatedly, the primary focus of this study is to deeply analyze race, gender, power relations and socio-economic conditions with CRT through the playwright’s innovative representation of blackness. CRT clearly shows that racism is constructed through discriminative practices and sustained by law and institutions resulting in justification and accordingly normalization of oppression. In line with CRT’s main concerns, In The Blood embodies societal and ideological barriers and the dehumanization of black female bodies through social judgment, racial and gender discrimination, and motherhood. CRT essentially deals with how Parks reconstructs traditional narratives of guilt, shame, and femininity and claims that Hester is portrayed both as a victim of intersectional oppression and an individual struggling with the harsh conditions of life.

O trabalho humano é, em sua essência, uma forma de garantir a sobrevivência, embora a remuneração recebida nem sempre seja suficiente para assegurar condições dignas de subsistência. Nesse contexto, o trabalho muitas vezes não se traduz em fonte de satisfação pessoal ou valorização do ser humano, assumindo predominantemente o papel de meio para suprir necessidades básicas. A força de trabalho, convertida em mercadoria, é inserida na lógica da produção, o que eventualmente leva à perda do sentido do trabalho, tornando-o estranho e alienado.

O adoecimento psicoemocional de profissionais da saúde é um problema crescente, intensificado pela pressão no ambiente de trabalho, sobrecarga de tarefas e desgaste emocional diário. Diversos estudos indicam que esses fatores leva a exaustão, a ansiedade e a depressão, comprometendo não apenas a saúde dos trabalhadores, mas também a qualidade do cuidado oferecido e a segurança dos pacientes.

A precarização dos serviços de saúde, que se agravou durante a pandemia de COVID-19, também é um fator importante. Profissionais da saúde, principalmente da enfermagem, enfrentam baixos salários, condições de trabalho precárias e quantitativo insuficiente de trabalhadores para dar atendimento às demandas assistenciais com total qualidade e segurança, o que contribui para aumento do adoecimento entre estes profissionais.

Neste capítulo apresentaremos, sucintamente, as implicações do adoecimento psicoemocional de profissionais da saúde em três grandes áreas: equipe de trabalho, segurança do paciente e relações pessoais, familiares e sociais.

Fitness is the most crucial parts of everyones life, in current era each human being is very well known to the fact of being fit and healthy with various means namely adopting moderation food habits, maintaining 24 hrs cycle and amongst all the attempts most trendy is physical exercise. In Ayurveda every detail of life is mentioned according to its need in one’s life, its indication, contra-indication and importance, but often we humans tend to violate the ground rules in quest of achieving great. Ayurveda emphasizes maintaining health through structured daily routines, including dinacharya (daily regimen), ratricharya (night regimen), and ritucharya (seasonal routine), which are essential for disease prevention and overall well-being. A key component of dinacharya is vyayama (physical exercise), considered fundamental for health maintenance and disease prevention. Ayurvedic texts highlight that appropriate physical activity positively impacts not only the body but also the mind (Mana), emotions, senses (Indriyas), and spirit (Aatma). When practiced correctly, vyayama enhances overall well-being and maximizes health benefits. However, improper execution can lead to health issues. This review article aims to provide an overview of vyayama according to Ayurvedic principles, detailing its effects on the body and necessary precautions for safe practice.

The neem plant is a tropical evergreen plant native to the Indian sub-continent. It has been used in ayurvedic medicine for more than 4000 years due to its medicinal properties. The phytochemical screening carried out on the extract of Neem plant revealed the presence of some active ingredients such as alkaloids, tannins, saponins, and phenols also glycosides, steroids, Terpenoids, flavonoids, and phlobatanins are present in this extract. It was observed that alkanoids has a concentration of 0.52g/ml, tannins has a concentration of 9.00g/ml, saponins has a concentration of 1.99g/ml, flavonoid has a concentration of 0.62g/ml and phenol has a concentration of 0.024g/ml. The antimicrobial activity of the Leaf, Stem, Stem-bark and Root extract of Neem plant (Azadirachta indica) against some of the pathogenic bacteria such as E. coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Staphylococcus epidermidis, was determined. This was done by using alcoholic and water extracts of Neem leaves, stem, stem bark and roots. Varying concentration of each extracts 200mg/ml, 150mg/ml and 100mg/ml were prepared and tested. When compared with Gentamycin 10mg, the Ethanol Extract of Neem Root shows maximum inhibition on Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Staphylococcus aureus and E. coli in an ascending order, followed by the ethanol extract of Neem Leaf which shows maximum inhibition on Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, E. coli and Staphylococcus epidermidis in an ascending order. Conclusively, this can explain the rationale for the use of the plant in treating infections in traditional medicine. The plant could be a veritable and cheaper substitute for conventional antibiotics since it is easily obtainable and the extract can easily be made via a simple process of maceration or infusion. However, further research is necessary to determine and purify the active components against micro-organisms.

Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the breast is a rare and aggressive form of breast cancer, classified as a metaplastic carcinoma. Diagnosis of this carcinoma is challenging due to the absence of distinctive clinical or radiological features. Histopathological conformation is essential, and immunochemistry typically shows negativity for hormone receptors and HER2, with positive markers such as CK5/6 and P40. Treatment strategies are not well defined, but platinum-based chemotherapy has shown promising results in some cases. Radiotherapy can serve both curative and palliative purposes depending on disease stage. We report the case of a 57-year-old patient treated in our department with chemotherapy and radiotherapy.

Authors: Якимов Кирилл Дмитриевич , Ногаева У. В. , Флисюк Е. В.
Published: October 2024

Мелоксикам — практически нерастворимый в воде нестероидный противовоспалительный препарат. Целью настоящей работы было изучение влияния способа получения твердых дисперсий и природы носителя на растворимость мелоксикама in vitro. Твердые дисперсии мелоксикама с применением водорастворимых полимеров были получены методом удаления растворителя и методом совместного плавления. Проведена оценка практического выхода полученных твердых дисперсий с целью подтверждения пригодности и эффективности технологии изготовления. Показана микрокристаллическая картина и дана сравнительная характеристика твердых дисперсии мелоксикама. Исследована растворимость полученных твердых дисперсий в сравнении с нативной субстанцией и физическими смесями с полимерами посредством УФ-спектрофотометрического анализа концентрации мелоксикама в среде растворения (фосфатный буфер, pH 6,86). Показана возможность увеличения водорастворимости мелоксикама в 5,5 раз при использовании в качестве полимера-носителя поливинилпирролидона. Твердые дисперсии в виде измельченного порошка продемонстрировали улучшенные технологические свойства в сравнении с нативной субстанцией. Предложенные методы получения твердых дисперсий позволят оптимизировать процесс производства лекарственных препаратов на их основе, а также получить препараты с повышенной растворимостью действующего вещества в биологических жидкостях, что в свою очередь будет способствовать увеличению биодоступности мелоксикама при терапии воспалительных заболеваний костно-мышечного аппарата.

Изучена эффективность различных технологий возделывания ячменя на пивоваренные цели на серой лесной почве в климатических условиях Чувашии в 2020 – 2022 гг. Традиционная агротехнология включала осеннее дискование и отвальную вспашку, ранневесеннее боронование, предпосевную культивацию и посев с последующим прикатыванием; минимальная — осеннее дискование, весеннюю культивацию и посев комплексом «Cultibar 9000»; нулевая — осеннюю обработку гербицидом Спрут Экстра и весенний «прямой» посев «Cultibar 9000». Норма высева — 200 кг/га, доза минеральных удобрений — N30P20K20. Посевные поля обрабатывали баковой смесью гербицидов Примадонна и Гранат с аммиачной селитрой (10 кг/га) в фазе раннего кущения и опрыскивали в фазу колошения фунгицидом Цимус Прогресс с инсектицидом Питомец. Убирали зерно при полной его спелости. В среднем, наивысшая (2,49 т/га) урожайность зерна установлена при минимальной агротехнологии, а наименьшая (2,34 т/га) — при нулевой. Пивоваренное зерно ячменя при традиционной агротехнологии по качественным характеристикам соответствовало показателям 1-го класса для солодоращения, по минимальной — 2-го класса, по нулевой — 3-го класса. Максимальный (22,3 %) уровень рентабельности производства зерна ячменя получен при традиционной технологии, минимальный (17,9 %) — при нулевой. В целом, агроэнергетический и экономический анализ свидетельствует о целесообразности возделывания ячменя на пивоваренные цели по традиционной технологии, основанной на отвальной вспашке.

Анализ статистических данных свидетельствует об устойчивом развитии сельского хозяйства регионов. Однако как по качественным, так и по объемным показателям его результаты заметно отстают от показателей, достигнутых сельским хозяйством многих зарубежных стран, что объясняется не только низким уровнем обеспеченности сельскохозяйственной техникой и оборудованием, природно-климатическими условиями, низким уровнем плодородия почвы, но и недостаточным использованием заложенного в интеграционных и кооперационных формах взаимодействия производственно-экономического потенциала. Результатами системного анализа сложившейся ситуации обоснован выбор темы исследования, по результатам которого авторами предложены новые, простые, доступные и эффективные формы интеграции сельхозпредпринимателей. В их числе, взаимодействие на условиях инвестиционного и рамочного договора, а также профильные и многоотраслевые центры сервисных услуг.

Оbjective — to analyze the parameters of the immune system of the organism in patients with psoriasis before and after treatment.
Materials and methods. The parameters of cellular immunity in an organism estimated after the change of relative and absolute amount of T- (CD3+) and B- (CD19+) of lymphocytes and subpopulations (CD4+, CD8+, CD16+, CD25+, CD71+, CD30+, CD95+). To identify of surface structures of lymphocytes the method of direct immune fluorescence was used where fluorescent label was attached to anti-CD of mononuclear antibodies of series Leu of the firm «Becton Dikinson» (USA). Calculations were conducted on the laser instantaneous cytofluorometer of the firm «Baston» (USA).
Results and discussions. The most positive influence on the parameters of the cellular link of the immune system of the organism was found in patients with psoriasis who received immunobiological therapy with the medication etanercept in combination with narrowband (311 nm) phototherapy. After treatment in patients of this group, due to a significant decrease in the production of TNF and its serum concentration, the pro-inflammatory changes in the cellular link of the immune system decreased, the number of lymphocytes with the an early activation marker, which initiated a further cytokine cascade of development and prolongation of inflammation decreased significantly. In addition, the established reduction in the number of CD30+ lymphocytes is an indirect factor indicating the switching of the Tx2 response (autoimmune manifestations) to Tx1, and hence the achievement of the clinical and immunological remission of the psoriatic process. It is extremely important for the functioning of the immune system the decrease in the content of activated lymphocytes that express the Fas-receptor as due to the increased lymphocyte apoptosis, namely, T-cytotoxic lymphocytes, and autoimmune and proliferative changes took place inherent in the exacerbation of the psoriatic process.
Conclusions. It was established that all our schemes of psoriasis treatment have immunorehabiting properties but their degree of severity was different. The most effective treatment scheme is the combined use of etanercept and UVB therapy, thus proliferative and inflammatory changes in the skin reduced, antigenic loading decreased, the level of CICs, autosensibilization and autoimmune disorders also decreased.
Timing is Everything Unraveling the Temporal Dynamics of the Cheerleader Effect
Authors: Wang Shuai , Lei Xue , Han Chengyang
Published: October 2024

Faces appear more attractive when presented in a group compared to individually, which is called cheerleader effect. However, the presentation time of faces is likely to influence the cheerleader effect, as time factors have been shown to have a significant impact in many other studies on face perception. Here, we conducted five experiments to investigate the effect of presentation time on the cheerleader effect. Across five behavioral experiments (including in-lab and online tasks, and pre-registration), we tested 473 subjects. We observed a negative, nonlinear effect of pre-cue time (the time before indicating the target face's location) on the cheerleader effect (Experiments 1 and 3). Moreover, via a novel design, we identified the optimal pre-cue duration that produces the peak cheerleader effect (Experiment 3), which can provide a reference for future research on setting presentation times. However, the cheerleader effect was not influenced by post-cue time (Experiments 4 and 5). These results suggest that the potential perceptual process involved in the "overestimation" of the attractiveness of the target face within a group occurs before cue appearing. From the timing perspective, this study provides a novel contribution to unifying the underlying mechanisms of the cheerleader effect.

PyTorch and TensorFlow are two widely adopted, modern deep learning frameworksthat offer comprehensive computation libraries for deep learning models. We illustratehow to utilize these deep learning computational platforms and infrastructure to estimate aclass of popular psychometric models, dichotomous and polytomous Item Response Theory(IRT) models, along with their multidimensional extensions. Through simulation studies,the estimation performance on the simulated datasets demonstrates low mean square errorand bias for model parameters. We discuss the potential of integrating modern deeplearning tools and views into psychometric research.
Assessing the baseline energy behaviour of the national single-family building stock: a parametrized modelling approach
Authors: Rouault Fabien , Molina Constanza , Valderrama-Ulloa Claudia
Published: October 2024

Building stock energy modeling (BSEM) has become an essential tool for policymakers aiming to achieve carbon-neutral built heritage and adapt to climate change. This study proposes a parameterized energy model developed using Rhino/Grasshopper/Ladybug software to create a BSEM set that accurately represents the current Chilean single-family housing stock. The methodology incorporates 29 different building archetypes and 27 stochastic variables, each defined by its probability distribution. The model is applied nationally and across each administrative region, resulting in the creation of 1,130 building energy models to ensure consistent results. Nationwide, space heating energy use is estimated to range from 11 to 850 kWh/m² (90% CI: 27-285 kWh), while total energy use is estimated between 569 and 53,209 kWh/year (90% CI: 1,400-20,173 kWh/year), aligning well with empirical data. The most influential factors affecting space heating energy use include heating control variables, internal mass, and air permeability; these should be prioritized in future research and national energy surveys. In the near future, these BSEMs can be utilized to evaluate the impacts of various climate change scenarios and occupant behaviour on indoor thermal comfort, as well as to explore retrofitting strategies for transitioning the built heritage to a low-carbon building stock.
Validation and Cross-sample Consistency of Chinese Five Factor Narcissism Inventory (FFNI) in Community and Offender Samples
Authors: Liu Yuping
Published: October 2024

Three-factor models of narcissism (Agentic, Neurotic, and Antagonistic Narcissism) have gained widespread recognition in the field. The Five Factor Narcissism Inventory (FFNI) stands out as the most comprehensive and only tool to date that assesses all three narcissism domains. However, its validation in Chinese culture and forensic contexts remains largely unexplored. With community (N = 578) and offender (N = 726) samples from China, we examined 60-, 30-, and 15-item versions of the Chinese FFNI in terms of internal structure, external associates, consistency across samples and versions. Our findings demonstrate acceptable internal consistencies and structural validity of each version of the Chinese FFNI, albeit with minor deviations in the Neurotic Narcissism factor. The FFNI demonstrated good cross-sample and cross-version consistency. These results suggest the utility of the FFNI in Chinese samples and suggest some comparability across community and offender groups.
