NEGOTIATING BOUNDARIES AND MARKING CONTAMINATION: THE TRANS-CORPORAL FEMALE BODY IN J. G. BALLARD’S COCAINE NIGHTS
Authors: Škobo Milena , Đukić Jovana
Published: December 2024

This paper explores the concept of trans-corporeality in J.G. Ballard’s
urban violence novel Cocaine Nights (1996) and utilises his earlier catastrophe
novel The Drowned World (1962) as a supporting framework for interpreting
female bodies as trans-corporeal spaces. The Drowned World centres around a
lone female character who lives under a patriarchal regime, where she is
moulded and suppressed within an androcentric world that parallels the
catastrophic events unfolding on Earth. In Cocaine Nights, the female characters
are exposed to urban violence resulting from the interaction between human and
non-human entities, with their bodies serving as the site of contact. Drawing
upon fourth-wave ecocriticism, the paper argues that the female bodies in
Cocaine Nights challenge traditional notions of human autonomy and underscore
the interconnectedness of all beings within the ecosystem. Through a detailed
analysis of key scenes and characters, the paper demonstrates how these female
bodies become spaces of negotiation and transformation, where the boundaries
between human and non-human entities constantly shift. Additionally, the paper
examines how the environments mark and impact the female bodies, leading to
contamination and compromise through their experiences. By adopting a transcorporeal perspective, this research offers a more nuanced understanding of the
relationship between human and non-human entities, emphasising the vital role
of environmental factors in shaping our physical and emotional well-being.

Keywords: trans-corporeality, female bodies, urban landscapes, environmental
health, physical and emotional well-being
EXILE AND LOSS IN DAVID ALBAHARI’S NOVEL BAIT
Authors: Lj. Đorović, Miljana Lj.
Published: December 2024

The main character in David Albahari’s novel Bait leaves Serbia and
flees to Canada where he tries to start his life anew. The narrator finds himself
alone and lonely, sad, troubled and completely estranged from his new
surroundings, language, culture and people. The paper will primarily rely on
Edward Said (2001) and Svetlana Boym’s (2001) definitions and meanings of
exile in which they both recognize loss as its fundamental element. This paper
aims to show the complexity of loss following exile and the ways to
constructively overcome it. The narrator’s life in the novel is filled with different
losses – that of his home country, language, his people, identity and sense of
belonging. Despite all the promises of a better life that Canada seems to offer to
the novel’s narrator, Albahari portrays him as a man who is suffering and
desperately trying to adapt to everything that Canada represents. The paper will
focus on how the narrator navigates his alienation and attempts to forge a new
identity in a new country whilst enduring the sadness and estrangement of his
self-imposed exile.

Keywords: Albahari, exile, loss, country, language, estrangement, identity.
THE MANY TURNS OF THE SCREW: THE INHERENT AMBIGUITY OF HENRY JAMES’S THE TURN OF THE SCREW
Authors: Nazari Hossein , Taghvaeishahroodi Sara
Published: December 2024

Henry James’s The Turn of the Screw (1898) is perceived as one of
his most controversial pieces of literature due to the variety of critical readings
that it has generated since its publication in 1898. Readings of the story range
from treating it as a Gothic ghost story dealing with the age-old Manichean battle
of good versus evil to psychoanalytical examination of its protagonist’s
experience. This variety has led to later readings that instead of insisting on a
single, straightforward interpretation, attempted to explore the inherent
ambiguity of the text that has resulted in such diverse readings. Since this
ambiguity could be attributed to James’s awareness of his readers’ experience of
the novella, this study primarily approaches the text using Wolfgang Iser’s
reader-oriented approach. In doing so, this research explores the way James’s
narrative technique generates indeterminacy and affects the reading process in a
way to resist any attempt at a fully coherent interpretation.

Keywords: ambiguity, frame narrative, Henry James, reader response theory,

AN ECO-CRITICAL APPROACH TO HEMINGWAY'S A FAREWELL TO ARMS: A STUDY OF CULTURE-NATURE NATURE DICHOTOMY
Authors: Niazi Nozar
Published: December 2024

: Drawing upon the culture/nature dichotomy as the basic analytical
framework of ecocriticism, and by employing a descriptive-analytical method,
this research investigates the consequences of anthropocentric warfare on the
natural world, and its impact on the man-nature relationship within the narrative
of A Farewell to Arms. It further explores the evolution of the hero-narrator's
attitude, demonstrating his growing detachment from the culture of war towards
a profound connection to the natural world. Henry's ultimate escape, with his
beloved, from war-torn Italy to the sanctuary of Switzerland represents the
physical embodiment of his ecological transformation. The binary opposition of
nature and culture is also employed to gauge the characters' alignment with their
inner nature versus their attachment to cultural codes. The author artfully
challenges the culture of war that often justifies violence and expansionism in
the name of patriotism and 'holy defense'. He suggests that the world should bid
farewell to war and embrace the natural world, cultivating the seeds of love
within the realm of human nature.

Keywords: Ernest Hemingway, A Farewell to Arms, eco-criticism,
culture/nature dichotomy, ecological baptism
MANY FACES OF A CHATBOT: THE USE OF POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE POLITENESS TRATEGIES IN ARGUMENTATIVE COMMUNICATION WITH A CHATBOT
Authors: Ivković Gordana
Published: December 2024

: With the ever-growing development of artificial intelligence,
communication and argumentation processes are no longer limited to face-toface and computer-mediated communication with other humans. They now
involve communication with machines. This fact has given rise to chatbots,
computer programs trained to produce human-like communication through the
use of highly specified algorithms. The aim of this study was to determine
whether a chatbot has been trained in accordance with positive and negative face
wants, which were a part of the politeness theory introduced by Brown and
Levinson. More specifically, the aim was to determine whether positive and
negative politeness strategies would affect the quality of answers a chatbot
produces. The chatbot was asked 10 questions in total, grouped into five sets of
questions that prompted answers followed by argumentation. Each set contained
two questions on the same topic, one question asked utilizing positive politeness
strategies, and the other question asked using negative politeness strategies. The
results show that 1) there were no significant differences in the answers given to
the two types of questions, 2) the chatbot did not select only one type of
politeness strategies, 3) more elaborate answers to one of the questions from the
sets were produced in relation to the topic of that question rather than the
politeness strategies. The most dominant argumentation structure is based on
coordinative arguments, with causal schemes appearing most frequently. All of
the answers are acceptable in the sense that they give coherent arguments for a
standpoint, except for one answer where the opposite standpoints were provided.

Keywords: argumentation, politeness theory, positive and negative politeness

Smart Contract on a Crypto Assets in the Civil Law and Common Law Jurisdictions: Implementation of Best Practices
Authors: Maydanyk Roman
Published: December 2024

The article is devoted to the analysis on a crypto assets smart contract in the civil law and common law jurisdictions and the implementation of the best practices into Ukrainian law. It is argued that the essence of a crypto assets smart contract is that it is a self-executing contract which is represented and executed by a computer program, remains unchanged and unstoppable after the creation of this contract, and its terms are included in the internal functions of a decentralized database which is not controlled by the databases of the parties to the contract or third parties. It is noted that a cryptoasset smart contract, like any contract, may be declared invalid if the will to conclude it does not meet the conditions for the validity of this transaction, regardless of the form in which this transaction is concluded, as in this case in the form of a computer code. It is also stated that the terms of a cryptoasset smart contract must be specific (clear, unambiguous), feasible (objective), legitimate, and capable of automation (no evaluative terms, such as “reasonable time,” may be used), exist within the blockchain platform (on which cryptoassets are currently transacted) and not involve obtaining and confirming information from outside (in this regard, the terms of force majeure are not specified in the smart contract). The study applies dialectical, comparative legal, formal and logical, and systemic and structural methods of scientific knowledge. It is proved that a smart contract is a contract which is represented and executed by a computer program, the components of which are a computer code, some or all of the terms of this contract which are fulfilled upon the occurrence of predefined events, are stored in an electronic register system which records the result of execution of this program, and the contract itself cannot be changed and is executed in accordance with the programmed instructions of the computer program. The author concludes that the determination of the person who is legally liable when a smart contract fails to perform the programmed function depends on the terms of the smart contract, and in their absence, the provisions of applicable law regarding the legal consequences of non-performance of the contract and liability for such non-performance should be used.
Online Sexual Abuse of Children in Nigeria
Authors: Funmilola Akinremi
Published: December 2024

The advent of technology has brought about unprecedented opportunities for communication and access to information which has helped in professional skills development, fostering learning, research and creativity. It has also created an avenue for criminals to exploit the ‘vulnerable’ in the society, particularly the children; thus, making the cyber space unconducive for them. This paper examines the legal protection of children against online sexual exploitation and abuse in Nigeria. It identifies the various types of online child sexual abuse, examines the legal framework for the protection of children against online sexual abuse, pinpoints the challenges associated with the legal framework and proffers durable solutions that will help tackle the exponential growth in online child sexual abuse in Nigeria. This paper adopts a mixed method research design and finds that there is significant increase in online child sexual abuse in Nigeria in spite of the laws and institutions in place to address this problem. Additionally, it is revealed that the legal framework for the protection of children against online child sexual abuse in Nigeria is fraught with deficiencies. The paper concludes that Nigeria owes the obligation to protect its children from online child sexual abuse and needs to take proactive steps to ensure this. The paper recommends that measures be taken to ensure that perpetrators of the heinous crime of online child sexual abuse are brought to book to serve as deterrents to others in the society.
Position-Aware Metric Normalization: A Hierarchical Framework for Context-Sensitive Evaluation of Search and Recommendation Systems
Authors: Aditya Singh
Published: December 2024

Position bias and creative format effects significantly impact the evaluation accuracy of modern search and recommendation systems, yet traditional metrics often fail to account for these complex interaction patterns. The article presents a comprehensive evaluation framework that implements sophisticated normalization techniques to address these challenges. The framework introduces a hierarchical correction model that accounts for vertical and horizontal position bias while simultaneously considering viewport visibility patterns and scrolls depth distribution. The system implements a creative-aware correction model that captures format-specific engagement baselines, cross-format interaction effects, and temporal attention patterns. By integrating fine-grained viewport tracking and precise interaction event collection, the framework enables more accurate performance assessment by normalizing metrics across multiple dimensions. Experimental results demonstrate that the approach significantly improves evaluation accuracy compared to traditional metrics, leading to more informed optimization decisions in search and recommendation systems. The framework's adaptive nature, powered by automated learning of interaction patterns and dynamic adjustment of normalization factors, makes it particularly suitable for contemporary applications where user behavior patterns continuously evolve.

Published: December 2024

Product recommendations, or PRs, are becoming more and more popular every day. Product recommendations are an e-commerce customization strategy that creates products for a customer on a webpage, application, or email on a continual basis based on information such user attributes, browsing habits, or situational context, creating a personalized shopping experience. The recommendation system predicts or suggests a product based on the customer's preferences. Several e-commerce websites have adopted product suggestion systems in the modern day. A website that enables anyone to purchase and sell digital goods, services, and tangible items without needing to visit a physical store. An e-commerce website allows a business to handle customer service, shipping and logistics, payments, and orders. A recommendation may be of any kind. As an example, Spotify may be used to propose music, and movies YouTube for videos, Netflix, the Play Store (for several categories), and so on. To suggest products based on user preferences, a variety of filtering techniques and algorithms were employed. Machine Learning Techniques (MLT) that were currently in use for product recommendation were covered in this study. With these methods, an algorithm is utilized to forecast or suggest comparable things based on the user's input.

Pariahs: Marginalized Voices in Education Abroad
Authors: Woolf Michael
Published: December 2024

This book exposes those dynamics that have created a spectrum of hate from prejudice, through discrimination, towards persecution, exclusion and, in its darkest manifestations, ethnic cleansing, erasure, genocide. These figures, and the spaces they inhabit, are profoundly connected. Their identities are formed by the interaction, or collision, between who they believe they are and how they are imagined to be through the hostility of others. They are invented as pariahs, outsiders who threaten or subvert the imagined cohesion of dominant communities. New imperatives emerge for international higher education. Conventional, simplistic concepts of identity or “culture” distort the unfamiliar environments students will encounter throughout their lives. The insights offered here indicate that a key task is to help students unlearn assumptions, to discard the baggage with which they travel across borders, real and metaphorical. The author deconstructs orthodoxies and demands that attention be paid to those silenced, ignored, dehumanized, victims of cruel myopia and immoral deafness.

Bu araştırmanın örneklem grubunu Niğde ve Adana illerinde yer alan 6 adet amatör futbol kulübünde lisanslı olarak müsabık olan 180 amatör futbolcu oluşturmaktadır. Araştırmada veri toplama aracı olarak iki bölümden oluşan bir anket kullanılmıştır. İlk bölümde araştırmacı tarafından hazırlanan futbola özgü değişkenler yer almaktadır. İkinci bölümde "Takım Sporcuları Örgütsel Bağlılık Ölçeği" yer almaktadır. Verilerin analizinde futbola özgü değişkenlerin açıklanması ve örgütsel bağlılık düzeylerini belirlemek için tanımlayıcı istatistiki verilerden yararlanılmıştır. Karşılaştırmalı analizlerde ise ANOVA, İndependent Sample T, Mann Whitney U ve Kruskal Wallis testleri kullanılmıştır. Bu araştırmanın sonucunda amatör futbolcuların örgütsel bağlılık düzeylerinin iyi olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Araştırmanın karşılaştırmalı analizlerinde amatör futbolcuların örgütsel bağlılık düzeylerine göre alacakların düzenli ödenmesi değişkeni dışındaki diğer değişkenlerin hiçbirinde anlamlı bir farklılığa rastlanmamıştır. Alacakları düzenli ödenen futbolcuların ödenmeyenlere göre örgütsel bağlılık, özdeşleşme ve uyuşma düzeylerinin daha yüksek olduğu gözlemlenmiştir. Bu nedenle amatör futbolcuların kulüplere olan örgütsel bağlılıklarını sağlayabilmek adına alacakların düzenli ödenmesi önerilmektedir.

Bu araştırmanın amacı ortaöğretim öğrencilerinin dijital oyun oynama motivasyonu ve serbest zaman fiziksel aktivite kısıtlayıcıları arasındaki ilişkiyi incelemektir. Araştırmanın örneklemini 308 erkek, 238 kadın olmak üzere toplam 546 öğrenci oluşturmaktadır. Araştırmada veri toplama aracı olarak; Kişisel bilgi formu, Dijital Oyun Oynama Motivasyon Ölçeği Serbest Zaman Fiziksel Aktivite Kısıtlayıcıları Ölçeği kullanılmıştır. Verilerin analizinde betimsel istatistikler, t- testi ve tek yönlü varyans analizi uygulanmıştır. Ölçekler arasındaki ilişkiyi ortaya koymak üzere Korelasyon Analizi testleri kullanılmıştır. Yapılan analizler sonucunda; dijital oyun oynama motivasyonu cinsiyet değişkenine göre Başarı Canlanma ile Merak ve Sosyal Kabul alt boyutlarında anlamlı fark bulunmuştur. Serbest zaman fiziksel aktivite kısıtlayıcıları cinsiyet değişkenine göre, Tesis, Yetenek Algısı ve Sosyal Çevre alt boyutlarında kadınların ortalama puanları erkeklerinkinden daha yüksek düzeyde olduğu bulunmuştur. Serbest zaman fiziksel aktivite kısıtlayıcılarının dijital oyun oynama süresi değişkenine göre, hiçbir alt boyutta anlamlı fark bulunamamıştır. Dijital oyun oynama motivasyonu ile serbest zaman fiziksel aktivite kısıtlayıcıları arasında pozitif yönlü düşük düzeyde anlamlı ilişki tespit edilmiştir. Sonuç olarak dijital oyun oynama motivasyonu ve serbest zaman fiziksel aktivite kısıtlayıcılarında cinsiyet, okul türü önemli değişkenler olarak ortaya çıkarken, aynı durum dijital oyun oynama süresi için söz konusu değildir. Diğer taraftan bireyleri dijital oyun oynamaya motive eden faktörlerin azaltılması, bireylerin serbest zamanlarında fiziksel aktiviteye katılma durumlarını arttıracağı söylenebilir.

Feeding dificulties are the frequent problem encountered in infants aged 6-24 months, and one of which is mothers' knowledge in feeding practices. Therefore, providing counseling on feeding rules to mothers is crucial to address the feeding difficulties in infants. Feeding rules are basic eating guidelines designed to train internal eating regulation and provide a structured feeding schedule. The media used is flipchart. This Research is conducted to analyze the effect of counseling on feeding rules using a flipchart on mothers' knowledge in addressing feeding difficulties during complementary feeding (MP-ASI). This is a quantitative Research with a pre-experimental one-group pre-posttest design. A purposive sampling is used to collect data from 69 respondents who meet inclusion criteria: mother with infants aged 6-24 months experiencing feeding difficulties in Lama Village, Hamparan Perak Subdistrict, Deli Serdang Regency. The findings reveal that counseling on feeding rules using a flipchart has a significant effect on mothers' knowledge in addressing feeding difficulties during complementary feeding (MP-ASI), as indicated by the Paired T-Test statistical test with a p-value of 0.000 (<0.05). It is expected that mothers with infants having feeding problems are able to perform feeding rules to address the feeding issues. Furthermore, the results of the Research are expected to serve as an evaluation for healthcare workers to enhance counseling on feeding rules in the community.

Adolescence represents a critical developmental stage during which individuals are highly vulnerable to mental health challenges. Early detection of mental health issues enables adolescents to identify and mitigate potential mental disorders at an initial stage. Mental health education plays a pivotal role in equipping teenagers with the knowledge and skills necessary for early detection. This study aims to evaluate the impact of mental health education on adolescents' knowledge and capacity to engage in early detection of mental health issues, with a focus on students at SMK Swasta Abdi Nusantara. The research adopts a pre-experimental approach using a one-group pretest-posttest design. The study sample comprises 70 respondents, selected through a total sampling technique. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test, yielding a p-value of 0.000 < 0.05. The findings indicate a significant effect of mental health education on adolescents’ knowledge and ability to conduct early detection of mental health issues. These results underscore the importance of mental health education programs in schools. Community health workers, particularly mental health nurses, are encouraged to optimize mental health initiatives by integrating education programs into school settings, thereby contributing to the prevention of mental disorders among adolescents.
ЄВГЕН ШЕВАЛЬОВ У ІСТОРІЇ УКРАЇНСЬКОГО ПСИХОАНАЛІЗУ ТА ПСИХІАТРІЇ

Анотація. Одеса стала колискою психоаналізу, де, за словами Зигмунда Фройда, відбувалась «маленька епідемія психоаналізу». Серед відомих одеситів – дослідників психоаналізу виділяються імена Мойсея Вульфа, Леоніда Дрознеса, Абрама Халецького та Якова Когана, проте ім’я Євгена Шевальова залишилось забутим. В історії Євген Шевальов відомий героїчним порятунком євреїв у стінах психіатричної лікарні під час Другої світової війни. Завдяки його зусиллям Одеська психіатрична лікарня виявилася єдиним в Україні закладом відповідного спрямування, якому вдалося уникнути розстрілу пацієнтів. Відновлюючи історичну справедливість та проаналізувавши 23 роботи вченого, ми дослідили роль Євгена Шевальова в історії Одеської школи психоаналізу та вплив психоаналітичної традиції на його науковий доробок. Як завідувач кафедри психіатрії Одеського медичного інституту Шевальов підготував і всіляко сприяв дослідженням двох визначних представників українського психоаналізу 1920-х – Якова Когана та Абрама Халецького. Вплив психоаналітичної традиції простежується в низці його робіт, присвячених неврозам, переживанню хвороби, порушенням мислення та конструктивним силам психіки пацієнтів. Протягом 1930-х, коли психоаналіз виявився під фактичною забороною у СРСР, Шевальов продовжував використовувати психоаналітичні теорії та техніки психотерапії у своїй роботі, що також знайшло відображення в його роботах. Хоча Євген Шевальов був психіатром широкого спектра, який поєднував ерудицію медика із тонким розумінням внутрішнього світу людини, аналіз його наукової спадщини дає підстави розглядати його як одного з видатних представників першого етапу розвитку психоаналізу в Україні.

Published: December 2024

Chronic renal disease (CRD) is a basic worldwide health issue; the interleukin-10 is an anti-inflammatory mediator that has a role in normal kidney function and in the progression of chronic renal failure. This study aims to measure the serum level of anti-inflammatory cytokines (IL-10), and evaluate its role in the progression of chronic kidney disease (CRD). The study comprised 66 patients divided into group 1 (22 subjects with CKD) and 2 (22 CRD patients with Diabetic mellitus name as DM-CRD), and group 3 (22 patients with Diabetic mellitus DM only without CRD). In addition to 22 consider as healthy people as control. The serum levels of IL-10 were determined by using ELISA assay. The results demonstrated a significant increase in the serum means levels of IL-10 in all patient groups (CKD, DM-CKD, DM) in comparison with healthy control, while there was   nonsignificant difference in its mean serum levels among all patient groups. It was concluded that male and aging are predisposing factors to chronic renal disease, and elevated levels of IL-10 in patients with CKD and diabetes  reflect the potential role of IL-10 in the progression of diabetic nephropathy patients to chronic renal disease
