Monastics of the Churchyard Churches of the Novgorod Land (based on Cadastral Descriptions of the Late 15th — 17th Centuries)
Authors: Пономарев Д.А.
Published: September 2024

Из материалов кадастровых описаний пятин Новгородской земли конца XV–XVII вв. известно, что при погостских церквях, подчас совместно, проживало значительное число монашествующих, нищих, как мужчин, так и женщин. Причем те, кто составлял описания погостов, в ряде случаев называли эти сообщества монастырями. Речь здесь идет о так называемых, по терминологии Е. Е. Голубинского, «несобственных» монастырях. Собственно монастырями их назвать трудно, так как в этих сообществах, группировавшихся вокруг погостских церквей, судя по кратким сообщениям писцовых книг, часто могла отсутствовать аскетическая деятельность и признаки организации монашеской общины. Представители подобных сообществ во главе с игуменами активно занимались обработкой земельных наделов, торговой и иной деятельностью. Подобные «монастырьки» вырастали из желания части мирян — жителей погостов принять монашество и поставить себе келию рядом со своим погостским храмом, а также обычая мирских общин иметь у себя «чорного попа» приходским священнослужителем. Широко распространенные в XVI в. подобные сообщества в XVII в. сходят на нет.

Materials of cadastral descriptions of pyatinas (territorial-administrative regions) of the Novgorod lands of the late 15th — 17th centuries show that a great number of monastics and beggars, both men and women, lived around the churchyard churches, sometimes together. Moreover, those compiling the descriptions of graveyard, would sometimes call these communities ‘monasteries’, the so-called “non-proprietary” monasteries, as E. E. Golubinsky names them. It is difficult to treat them as real monasteries, because even according to the briefest reports of scribal books, ascetic activity and features of organized monastic life could often be missing in these communities grouping around churchyard churches. Representatives of such communities led by hegumens were actively engaged in cultivation of land plots, trade and other activities. Such ‘monasteries’ would appear because of the desire of some lay people — residents of churchyards — to become monks and arrange a cell close to their churchyard church, and because of the custom of lay communities to have a “black pope as a parish clergyman.” Widespread in the 16th century such communities faded away in the 17th century.
“Criticism of the Reliability of Sources” and the Reliability of Criticism (Reflection on New Works on the History of the Heresy of the Judaizers)
Authors: Алексеев А.И.
Published: September 2024

В статье рассматриваются работы М. В. Печникова, А. А. Казакова и А. А. Манохина по истории ереси жидовствующих. Работы названных авторов объединяет общая особенность — гиперкритицизм в отношении основных источников: посланий архиепископа Геннадия (Гонзова), антиеретических посланий и «Книги на еретиков» прп. Иосифа Волоцкого. Основные выводы названных авторов сопоставляются с материалом источников и подвергаются критическому анализу. Отмечается, что попытка сформулировать оригинальные выводы на основе самостоятельного изучения рукописной традиции основных источников была предпринята лишь в монографии А. А. Манохина. Однако и он оказался в зависимости от построений своих коллег, которые подчинены тенденциозности и базируются на слабой источниковедческой подготовке авторов. Подводя итог рассмотренным работам, следует сказать, что наши надежды на то, что новые исследования поднимут изучение всего круга проблем, связанных с феноменом ереси жидовствующих на новый, более высокий уровень, не сбылись. Проверку материалом источников не выдержала ни статья М. В. Печникова, ни серия публикаций А. А. Казакова, ни монографическое исследование А. А. Манохина.

The article deals with the works on the history of the heresy of the Judaizers by M. Pechnikov, A. Kazakov and A. Manokhin. Their works are united by one common feature — hypercriticism of the main sources: the epistles of Archbishop Gennady Gonzov, the anti-heretical epistles and the “Book on Heretics” by Joseph Volotsky. The main conclusions of the authors named are compared with the source material and subjected to critical analysis. It is found out that an attempt to formulate original conclusions drawing on the independent study of the manuscript tradition of the main sources was made only in the monograph by A. Manokhin. However, he also turned out to depend on the constructions of his colleagues who are subject to tendentious bias and are poorly prepared on the sources material. Summing up, the works reviewed show that hopes for new research to raise the study of the entire range of problems related to the heresy of the Judaizers to a new, higher level have not come true. Neither M. Pechnikov’s article, nor A. Kazakov’s series of publications, nor A. Manokhin’s monographic study could pass verification by comparison with the sources material.

“Those who go down to Profane [Feasts] and drink”: Canonical Answers of Metropolitan John about Participation of Clergy in Profane Banquets
Authors: Гайденко П.И.
Published: September 2024

В условиях раннего русского средневековья одним из важнейших условий включения духовенства в городскую и сельскую среду было участие пастырей в различных праздниках и пирах, устраиваемых миром (общиной). Культура и традиции подобных торжеств были таковы, что служили соблазном как для их участников, так и для их свидетелей. В представленной статье предпринята попытка проанализировать комплекс рекомендаций, данных киевским митрополитом черноризцу Иакову относительно присутствия священнослужителей и христиан в целом в подобных празднествах, а также относительно совместного вкушении пищи с иноверцами. Очевидно, что бытовавшие на Руси застольные традиции, воспринимавшиеся даже духовенством в качестве своего рода естественной нормы, вступали в острое противоречие с каноническими нормами и византийскими практиками.

In the environment of the early Russian Middle Ages, one of the most important conditions for the clergy’s inclusion in the urban and rural milieu was pastors’ participation in various feasts and banquets held by the world (community). The culture and traditions of such celebrations were such that they seduced both their participants and their witnesses. The article analyzes the set of recommendations given by the Metropolitan of Kiev to monk Jacob regarding the presence of clergy and Christians in general at such celebrations, as well as in regard to sharing food with those of a different faith. It is obvious that table traditions in Rus’ perceived as a kind of natural norm even by the clergy came into sharp contradiction with canonical norms and Byzantine practices.

Published: September 2024

In the realm of networked systems, achieving timely and reliable communication is paramount, particularly in high-speed environments like 100Mbps Switched Ethernet networks. However, inherent delays in communication channels poses significant challenges to maintaining synchronization and real-time data transfer. This paper proposes a novel approach to address communication delay compensation in such networks through the utilization of a Sliding Mode Controller (SMC). The proposed method leverages the robustness and adaptability of sliding mode control techniques to dynamically adjust transmission parameters and compensate for communication delays. By incorporating the SMC into the network architecture, the system can effectively mitigate the adverse effects of delays, ensuring improved performance in terms of packet delivery, latency reduction, and overall network efficiency. Through simulation studies and practical implementation, the efficacy of the proposed approach is demonstrated, showing promising results in enhancing the reliability and responsiveness of 100Mbps Switched Ethernet networks. This research contributes to the advancement of communication protocols and control strategies in networked systems, offering a viable solution to address the challenges posed by communication delays in high-speed environments.

Sustainable nickel exploration is urgently needed as the demand for nickel in Indonesia increases. Area “X” Southeast Sulawesi, Indonesia, is one of the nickel producer areas in Indonesia. A geophysical exploration method that can effectively and efficiently increase the discovery of laterite nickel potential is the Electrical Resistivity Tomography (ERT) or the resistivity geoelectric method. ERT measurements in the study area were carried out to see the potential of nickel laterite deposits that can be mined. ERT measurements were carried out as many as 6 lines, and there was drill data as many as 5 drill points in the study area. Data processing of resistivity values using Res2DInv software, then made resistivity cross-section, lithology cross-section, resistivity cross-section vs. drill data, correlation of paths, depth slicing map, and 3D modeling for each layer of nickel laterite. The results showed that the study area contained limonite, saprolite, saprock, and bedrock layers. The resistivity value in the limonite layer is (61 – 150) Ohm.m, the saprolite layer is (1 – 60) Ohm.m, the saprock layer is (61 – 150) Ohm.m, and the bedrock layer has a resistivity value of more than 150 Ohm.m. The distribution of nickel laterite deposits consisting of limonite, saprolite, and saprock in the study area is thicker to the east. Nickel laterite deposits in the eastern zone have a thickness of about 60 meters, while in the western zone, it has a thickness of about 10 meters. This is due to the indication of a southwest-northeast oriented fault, so the western zone has a higher morphology than the eastern zone.

Published: September 2024

Adequate Water Resource Carrying Capacity (WRCC) is of great significance for the sustainable development of urban agglomerations. Accurately evaluating WRCC is of great significance for the coordinated development of urban agglomerations. Based on the PS-DR-DP framework, an evaluation index system for water resources carrying capacity was established, and the main obstacle factors affecting CPUA WRCC were analyzed using an obstacle degree model. The WRCC index of the Central Plains Urban Agglomeration (CPUA) was calculated using the Improved TOPSIS model, and the evolution and spatial distribution characteristics of WRCC were analyzed. The results indicate that the water resources carrying capacity of the Central Plains urban agglomeration has been coordinated and sustainable in recent years.

Pertamina has issued a cashless application for fuel purchases since July 2019, named as MyPertamina. The application aims to make it easier for customers to make payments in transactions at fuel stations. MyPertamina application can currently be downloaded on Google Play Store. Since its release until now, MyPertamina has been downloaded as many as 10 million with a rating of 3.1 and 339 thousand reviews. Unfortunately, the low rating and user reviews dominated by negative comments show that the app's performance is still not satisfactory. The reviews data can be converted into valuable information by using sentiment analysis. Many researchers have applied sentiment analysis to MyPertamina user comment data. However, there have been no studies that apply the handling of negation in MyPertamina reviews, even though negative comments are very often found, i.e ‘tidak’,’jangan’,’belum’ and ‘bukan’. The negative words will change the sentiment of next sentence. Untreated negation words will lead to errors in classification which in turn will decrease accuracy. This study applies the handling of negation words using First Sentiment Word (FSW) and Fixed Window Length (FWL) methods. The classification algorithms used are Naïve Bayes Classifier (NBC) and Support Vector Machine (SVM). In this work, we analyzed 1000 comments consisting of 390 positive comments and 610 negative comments. The results showed that the best performance of negation handling is FSW. This method has improved accuracy by 2.5% and improved F1 by 1.5% using NBC algorithm and has improved accuracy by 2.9% and F1 by 3.4% using SVM algorithm.

The manual method of descriptive answer evaluation inherently comes with a lot of problems like the stressful nature of the task, the subjectivity of the grading process as well as the delayed delivery of results. This research involved the development of a computer-based test platform utilizing Natural Language Processing (NLP) as a transformative solution for evaluating descriptive answer examinations. The motivation for this project are the issues of slow turnaround times, potential bias, and limited scalability faced in the manual method of evaluating descriptive answers. Leveraging a state-of-the-art large language model, the MERN (MongoDB, Express.js, React.js and Node.js) stack and Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), a system that meticulously analyzes student responses using criteria like textual semantic similarity, keyword matching and answer length, was developed. The results of the project include timely and accurate feedback, alleviating anxieties and uncertainties around students’ performances. It showed that descriptive questions can evaluate students' critical thinking, problem-solving, and creativity, unlike objective tests. Meanwhile, lecturers are relieved of the immense stress associated with traditional manual grading, fostering a more positive and productive learning environment.

Published: September 2024

Background: Although the barbell hip thrust exercise is widely performed in resistance training programs, evidence on its effectiveness to inducing glutes muscle hypertrophy is limited. Therefore, this study aimed to compare the effects of performing 45º leg press and stiff-leg deadlift (L-S) vs. performing 45º leg press, stiff-leg deadlift plus barbell hip thrust (L-S-BHT) on gluteus maximus muscle size. Methods: The participants were 33 untrained young women randomly separated into 2 resistance training groups: L-S (n = 15) and L-S-BHT (n = 18). The muscle thickness of the gluteus maximus was assessed through B-mode ultrasound before and after 30 resistance training sessions. The resistance training program was carried out over 10 weeks, 3 days week-1. Results: Both training regimens elicited significant increases in gluteus maximus muscle thickness from pre to post-training (P < 0.001). Notably, L-S-BHT had superior augments (L-S-BHT = +9.3% vs. L-S = +6.0%, P = 0.016). Conclusion: The current results suggest that performing barbell hip thrust, in addition to 45º leg press and stiff-leg deadlift, enhances muscle hypertrophy of the gluteus maximus compared to performing exclusively 45º leg press and stiff-leg deadlift.

As unidades de conservação desempenham um papel de grande relevância social em diversos aspectos. Nesse contexto, este artigo tem como objetivo analisar o programa de interpretação presente no Plano de Manejo da Floresta Nacional de Açu, com foco nas atividades relacionadas à educação e interpretação ambiental. A Floresta Nacional de Açu (Flona de Açu) é uma Unidade de Conservação federal de uso sustentável sob a gestão do Instituto Chico Mendes de Conservação da Biodiversidade (ICMBio). Os métodos e técnicas de pesquisa adotados apresentam características significativas para discutir o potencial da educação ambiental crítica nas Unidades de Conservação. Para tanto, foi utilizada uma abordagem qualitativa, baseada em estudos bibliográficos e análise de documentos. Foi constatado que o Plano de Manejo apresenta fortes necessidades relacionadas a dados e ao planejamento de educação ambiental para mitigar os conflitos entre a comunidade e a unidade. Com isso, concluímos que a interpretação ambiental e a educação ambiental não estão completamente desenvolvidas na unidade e que ainda há a necessidade de mais ações na Flona de Açu.

A inclusão do aluno surdo no ensino superior é reflexo de uma série de conquistas da comunidade surda ao longo das últimas décadas. Nesse processo de inclusão, o papel do tradutor / intérprete de Libras merece destaque. Com isso, a presente pesquisa se propôs a investigar a base de conhecimentos do profissional que atua como tradutor/intérprete de Libras no Ensino Superior (ES). Para a realização do estudo entrevistamos quatro profissionais que atuam nesse segmento de ensino. Constatamos com a análise dos dados que a fonte principal de aprendizagem dos tradutores / intérpretes tem sido a experiência dialógica no contato com o aluno surdo. Quanto à inclusão do aluno surdo no ES, concluímos que a inclusão educacional vai além da supressão dos limites comunicacionais e que deveria ser uma iniciativa de toda instituição de ensino criar espaços de formação e reflexão, em especial, aos profissionais que atuam nos processos educacionais. Nesses espaços de formação e reflexão os tradutores/intérpretes de Libras teriam muito a contribuir com o conhecimento que possuem da língua de sinais e da cultura da comunidade surda.

Introduction. New technologies are being actively introduced in Russian railway transport – high-speed and high-speed traffic, automated control of technological processes using artificial intelligence. In this regard, the role of mental labour and the intensity of the labour process increases, which creates additional risks of health disorders.
The purpose of the work is to determine the nature of changes in the functional state in the body of transport workers using modern production process technologies – automatic train guidance systems and remote train tracking.
Materials and methods. Comparative hygienic and physiological studies of more thirty locomotive crews were carried out in production conditions when working in normal mode and using automated train management systems; 15 operator drivers and train drivers-instructors of the center for dispatching control and traffic control of electric trains.
Results. A qualitative change in the occupation load of employees in locomotive crews has been established when using automated train management systems. An improvement in most indices of the production load of assistant drivers has been revealed, stipulating a possible transition to work without an assistant when using automated train driving.
The analysis of individual components of the occupation load in employees in locomotive crews working in modern conditions of labour management designate its qualitative change due to the gain in the information component, which requires improvement of the system for assessing the readiness of employees associated with train movement for production activities.
Limitations. The research was conducted with the participation of employees in locomotive crews without medical contraindications for work in the occupation and are allowed training work in accordance with the procedure provided by orders of the Ministry of Health and the Ministry of Transport of the Russian Federation.
Conclusion. The gain in the information component causes a qualitative change in the occupation load in employees in locomotive crews working in advanced forms of labour management, which determines the requirements for assessing the readiness of locomotive crews for train work based on improved methods and criteria for evaluating performance for occupational selection and prevention of health disorders.

Published: September 2024

Introduction. Cytological investigation of pneumoconiosis is a key tool in the diagnosis and monitoring of occupational lung diseases. It provides valuable information about the nature and extent of the damage to lung tissue, facilitates early detection of the disease and planning of adequate preventive and treatment measures. The inclusion of cytological analysis in the comprehensive examination of workers in the coal industry helps to reduce the risk of developing pneumoconiosis and improves health prognosis.
The aim of the study was to carry out a cytological analysis of the biological material of the bronchopulmonary system as a marker of early verification of pneumoconiosis in workers of the main coal mining occupations.
Materials and methods. Cytological analysis with the elements of histological and morphometric verification of the obtained data was conducted using light microscopy. Structure measurements were evaluated microscopically using West Medica computer technology software. The analysis included the study of smears-prints and washes, immunohistochemical staining of cytological and histological samples, morphometric analysis, and the implementation of semi-quantitative methods for evaluating immunohistochemical markers.
Results. In the studied biological samples of miners, there were noted a significant reduction in the cellular element diversity and an increase in the number of alveolar macrophages “loaded” with dust and coal particles indicating to a high degree of dust load and the development of pneumoconiotic processes. Morphometric analysis revealed a gain in the area of “dust cells” confirming the activation of macrophages. Signs of squamous metaplasia in the bronchial epithelium, indicating changes caused by coal dust exposure, were also detected. Immunohistochemical investigation confirmed the inflammatory response, and vimentin marker analysis suggested potential development of fibrosis. The results emphasize the importance of cytological and immunohistochemical methods in early diagnosing of dust pathology in coal miners.
Limitations. This study suggests further expansion using cytogenetic and electron microscopic examination.
Conclusion. The conducted research confirmed the importance of cytological data as a marker of early, pre-clinical pathological changes of bronchopulmonary system in coal miners, that allows reducing the risk of developing dust-related occupational diseases.

Published: September 2024

Introduction. In the Russian Federation, there is a high prevalence of cardiovascular diseases among workers in hazardous industries. The modern concept of the etiology and pathogenesis of cardiovascular pathology includes provisions on multifactoriality. Timely detection of disorders of lipid metabolism is extremely important, since the atherosclerotic process is one of the most important factors of cardiovascular risk. Analysis of the modifiable causes of the development of dyslipidemia in workers of industrial enterprises, the main component of which is poor nutrition, is of undoubted relevance
The purpose is to study the characteristics of the diet in terms of the development of atherogenic dyslipidemia, as a cardiovascular risk factor, for workers
of industrial enterprises.
Materials and methods. There were examined fifty seven 47–62 years male employees in the engineering industry, working under conditions of exposure to harmful production factors, such as the severity of the labour process and noise, exceeding hygienic standards. The examinees were divided into two groups taking into account the blood lipid spectrum. The first group included workers with atherogenic dyslipidemia (37 people), the second group of 20 people consisted of workers with an optimal lipid profile. The subjects of both groups are comparable in terms of experience, age, and level of physical activity. Laboratory studies included the determination of lipid spectrum indices. The assessment of the actual nutrition by the frequency method with a quantitative assessment of the consumed food products was carried out. The reliability of differences in characteristics was determined using the Pearson criterion.
Results. The diets in workers with atherogenic dyslipidemia more often exceeded the physiological needs for energy, total fat, cholesterol, saturated fatty acids in comparison with the diets of workers with an optimal lipid profile, the differences in cholesterol intake were statistically significant. Insufficient intake of polyunsaturated fatty acids and dietary fiber also had differences between the groups of the examined: it was more often observed in the diet of people with dyslipidemia, achieving significant differences in the level of dietary fiber deficiency.
Limitations. The subjects were workers in the mechanical engineering industry, working under conditions of exposure to the severity of the labor process and noise that exceeded hygienic standards. Data are limited to voluntary study participants.
Conclusions. The results of the study indicate the importance of developing healthy eating habits as one of the directions for effectively reducing cardiovascular risk and preventing atherosclerosis in workers in the mechanical engineering industry in particular, and hazardous industries, in general.

Published: September 2024

Introduction. Nutrition is one of the important environmental factors that determine human health. Each person is individual, and food stereotypes formed in the family from childhood directly affect his eating behaviour in adulthood, regardless of the chosen specialty.
The purpose of this investigation was to study the peculiarities of the formation of eating behaviour in doctors of different specialties carrying out medical activities in medical instituions of different forms of ownership in the South of Kuzbass.
Materials and methods. To assess eating behaviour, a questionnaire survey was conducted; the study was selective. The total sample size was sixty three female doctors, average age was 38.6±3.4 years, working only during the day, married, with one or more children. When studying eating behaviour, there were taken into account as follows: awareness of nutrition issues, peculiarities of food choice, diet; the subjects underwent anthropometry; calculation of the weight index when ranking nutrition awareness factors.
Results. The determining factors when choosing food products were taste preferences (50.0%) and the cost of the food product (33.0%). An analysis of the multiplicity of food consumption showed that bread and bakery products, potatoes, butter, and vegetable oils were present in the daily diet, and meat, vegetables, pasta, and cereals were consumed daily by 39-56% of respondents. When choosing food products in families (weight index – 11.2), a significant role was given to taste preferences in the family, in second place in importance (weight index – 6.9) was the level of education of the spouse, in third place was the number of children in the family (weight index – 2.0).
Limitations. This study is limited to a sample of a group of doctors working in outpatient-and-polyclinic institutions and medical institutions of various forms of ownership in the South of Kuzbass.
Conclusion. The elaboration of preventive measures among doctors on healthy nutrition should be carried out taking into account previously identified violations and be personalized and regional in nature.

Introduction. Microparticles of polymer compounds are common in the environment. polystyrene particles are the most common types of microplastics. The most interesting subject of the study is the assessment of the potentiating properties of microplastics on the manifestations of toxicity of common substances entering the body by alimentary means, primarily such as acrylamide and ethanol.
Materials and methods. The experimental work was performed on a cell culture of mouse MH-22a hepatocytes in compliance with the principles of working with mammalian cell cultures. An MTT test was used to study cell viability by respiratory activity. The statistical analysis was performed in the SPSS Statistics 21 software.
Results. The article presents the results of an experimental study of the respiratory activity of cells under combined treatment with 300 nm polystyrene microparticles at a concentration of 0.025% with acrylamide and ethanol. Preliminary experimental data is presented to substantiate the selected concentration of the microplastic under study, demonstrating its low acute cytotoxicity. The calculated IC50 values for cell survival for acrylamide and ethanol under single exposure and combined exposure with polystyrene microparticles for 24 hours had insignificant differences.
Limitations. The study was performed on a cell culture of mouse MH-22a hepatocytes (monolayer) cultured in accordance with the requirements of the culture passport and treated with 300 nm polystyrene microparticles and their mixtures with acrylamide and ethanol only for 24 hours in microplate format.
Conclusion. A comparative analysis of survival values when exposed to toxic substances without addition and in the presence of microplastics revealed no significant differences between cell groups, which at the moment did not allow detecting the potentiating effect of polystyrene microparticles with a size of 300 nm on the toxicity of acrylamide and ethanol under 24-hour combined treatment.

Introduction. 90% of the Kuzbass population lives in an industrial zone with a high level of anthropogenic load. Novokuznetsk is classified as a city with a critically high level of environmental pollution and the risk of developing diseases. The incidence of congenital malformations in the Kemerovo region is on average 3–5 times higher than in the Russian Federation.
Materials and methods. The average annual concentrations of pollutants in the Novokuznetsk urban district for 2020–2022 were calculated. A survey of sixty young primigravida women living in Novokuznetsk was conducted. In more than 50% of cases, gestational sac death was diagnosed. Variants of the CYP1A2 and GSTM1 genes of the xenobiotic biotransformation system were determined in these women by polymerase chain reaction, and their combinations were considered.
Results. A significant excess of the maximum permissible concentrations of benz(a)pyrene, formaldehyde, suspended substances, and nitrogen dioxide was revealed while reducing the total volumes of pollutant emissions into the atmosphere of Novokuznetsk. There was a five-fold increase in the share of congenital malformations and a twenty-fold gain in the number of missed miscarriages over the past 20 years. A statistically reliable association of gestational sac death was found in women with the C/ACYP1A2*1F genotype in combination with a deletion polymorphism of the GSTM1 gene (χ2 = 3.94; OR = 7.00), while the C/ACYP1A2*1F genotype in combination with the normally functioning GSTM1 ”+” gene is associated with the resistance to miscarriage (χ2 = 9.16; OR = 0.19).
Limitations. The study was of a pilot nature, so it is advisable to increase the sample in the future.
Conclusion. There have been identified combinations of gene forms of phases I and II of the xenobiotic biotransformation system associated with unfavourable pregnancy outcomes which can be used as markers of reproductive losses and taken into account when planning and carrying a pregnancy.

Published: September 2024

This study examines Mayor Lorife M. Otaza’s 2024 State of the Municipality Address in Loreto, Agusan del Sur, Philippines, through a transitivity analysis based on Halliday’s Systemic Functional Linguistics framework. Using a qualitative approach, the research analyzes the official speech transcript to identify transitivity processes, conveyed ideologies, and linguistic strategies for navigating gender and power dynamics in local governance. Analysis of 120 clauses revealed a predominance of material processes (39.2%), followed by relational (29.2%) and behavioral (19.2%) processes, indicating a balance between action-oriented rhetoric and relationship-building language. The speech conveyed ideologies of progress, community unity, environmental stewardship, servant leadership, and accountability. Mayor Otaza’s linguistic construction of her leadership identity balanced assertiveness with inclusivity, employing strategies such as collective pronouns and action-oriented language. These linguistic choices strategically navigate gender expectations while asserting competence and vision. The findings contribute to our understanding of how language shapes political discourse and leadership identities, offering insights for political communication strategies and leadership development, particularly in the context of local Philippine governance. This research opens avenues for further exploration of language use in political spheres across various levels and contexts, highlighting the importance of linguistic choices in constructing effective leadership personas, especially for women in positions of power.

Published: September 2024

Cervical cancer screening (CCS) access has remained a major challenge in developing countries. Integration of CCS into family planning services (FPS) is one strategy that could increase access and uptake of CCS services (CCSS). There are limited data on the integration of CCS into FPS, in Ibadan; hence, this study assessed the need for integration of CCS into FPS in Ibadan, Nigeria. This cross-sectional study was conducted among 202 female family planning clinic attendees selected using purposive sampling technique. A structured interviewer-administered questionnaire was used for data collection. Quantitative data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics at 0.05 level of statistical significance. Mean age of the women was 32.7±6.5 years, 74.3% had poor knowledge of cervical cancer 80.2% had positive perception of the integration of CCS into FPS, 7.4% had utilized CCS, 76.2% were willing to uptake CCSS. There was also a significant association between educational level and knowledge on CCS (p= 0.000); also with the perception of inclusion of CCS into FPS and willingness to utilize CCSS (p= 0.000). The need for integration was evident as the respondents had positive perception of integration of CCS into family planning services.
Multi-view Traffic Flow Prediction Model Based on Spatiotemporal Convolution
Authors: Zhu Xiaoyan
Published: September 2024

Predicting traffic flow has always been a significant task in intelligent transportation systems. Due to the substantial temporal and spatial dependencies of traffic flow sequences, accurately predicting traffic flow poses a considerable challenge. Many existing works primarily rely on recurrent neural networks, graph neural networks, and Transformer models to establish traffic flow prediction models. To better extract features and enhance efficiency, a traffic flow prediction model based on multi-view spatiotemporal convolution (MVSC) is proposed. This model learns the representation of sequence data at the input encoding layer and incorporates location and time information. In the spatiotemporal feature representation learning layer, considering the diverse periodic patterns in sequences, several representation learning modules are designed, conducting local spatiotemporal feature exploration through one-dimensional convolution and then accomplishing global spatiotemporal feature mining based on causal convolution. To further enhance the model's utilization of spatiotemporal features, a channel attention mechanism is introduced at the prediction layer. The forecasting method employed in the study is direct multistep, and subsequent experiments conducted on two real datasets demonstrate that the MVSC model exhibits a certain degree of superiority in MAE, RMSE, and MAPE for both short-term and long-term predictions compared to existing models. And through the latest experiments and investigations, it has been found that MVSC has improved MAPE performance by about 1.2% compared to recent models such as RTGCN and STRGCN, achieving the intended outcomes.
