Published: July 2024

Introdução: O acidente vascular cerebral é a principal causa de morte e incapacidade em Portugal. Os tumores cardíacos primários são raros, a maioria é benigna e o mixoma auricular é o mais comum de todos. Este tipo de tumor é mais frequente em mulheres jovens e tem apresentação clínica variável, dependendo da localização, tamanho e mobilidade da massa, podendo condicionar fenómenos cardioembólicos, como o acidente vascular cerebral. O tratamento é cirúrgico e, se detetado precocemente, o prognóstico pode ser favorável. Descrição do caso: Descreve-se o caso de uma mulher de 37 anos, com antecedentes de acidente vascular cerebral isquémico considerado idiopático aos 22 anos, com quadro de hemi-hipostesia esquerda, alterações da visão, diminuição da força muscular do membro superior esquerdo e alterações na marcha, com evidência de lesão isquémica tálamo-capsular direita na tomografia computorizada e ressonância magnética crânio-encefálica. No ecocardiograma transtorácico identificou-se uma massa auricular esquerda sugestiva de mixoma, que foi confirmada por ecocardiograma transesofágico e submetida à resseção cirúrgica e confirmação histológica. Comentário: Na suspeita de uma causa cardiogénica, o ecocardiograma deve ser prontamente realizado. O tumor cardíaco do tipo mixoma tem uma indicação de tratamento específico que é a resseção cirúrgica, com baixo risco de recorrência de evento cerebrovascular no follow-up. Este caso realça a importância do estudo complementar no acidente vascular cerebral. Por outro lado, o caso também demonstra a importância da articulação que deve existir entre os cuidados de saúde primários e secundários, particularmente com a cardiologia, para a deteção e gestão de patologias como o mixoma auricular e o acidente vascular cerebral isquémico.

Introdução: As complicações micro e macrovasculares da diabetes são resultado de um processo de caráter longo sobre a falta dos cuidados da diabetes, de que resultam problemas cardiovasculares, oftalmológicos e neuropáticos, requerendo por essas questões elevada atenção no tratamento. Descrição do caso: Apresenta-se o relato de caso de um paciente adulto de meia-idade, ex-fumador, com diagnóstico de diabetes mellitus, além da hipertensão e obesidade. A sua alimentação não saudável ao longo dos anos, sedentarismo e altos níveis de estresse resultou num quadro de isquemia vascular periférica, que intensificou as complicações da diabetes, ou seja, problemas micro e macrovasculares, entre eles, a retinopatia e a neuropatia. Por esse histórico, a farmacoterapia do paciente resultou entre as insulinas (regular e NPH), antiagregante plaquetátio, estatina, fibratos, psicotrópicos e os anti-hipertensores. Além disso, detetou-se que seus níveis glicémicos e hemoglobina glicada estão elevados. Ainda se verificaram alterações na lipoproteína de alta densidade (HDL) e triglicéridos. Algumas queixas do paciente no período noturno, como boca seca, tontura e sonolência, são problemas que podem estar relacionados com a terapia concomitante de venlafaxina, gabapentina e amitriptilina. Comentários: De forma geral, recomenda-se a este paciente a prática de exercício físico, como caminhada, por exemplo, diminuição do consumo de hidratos de carbono e sódio, além de algumas alterações na farmacoterapia do paciente.

Objetivo: Avaliar e comparar a qualidade de vida (QdV) genérica e específica de doentes sofrendo de insuficiência cardíaca (DIC) e verificar a sua relação com elementos sociodemográficos e de morbilidade. Métodos: Estudo observacional transversal em amostra de conveniência de DIC, em 2022, aplicando o Euro Quality of Life Instrument – 5D (EQ5D-3l) e o Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire (KCCQ) e perguntas de contexto sociodemográfico e de morbilidade, em dias selecionados, em autopreenchimento com ajuda de investigador, se solicitado, em ambiente de medicina geral e familiar. A QdV genérica foi tratada de acordo com a norma para a população portuguesa e a específica para DIC segundo a mediana. Resultados: Em amostra de 50 DIC, 29 (58,0%) eram mulheres; a idade média foi de 74,1±8,9 anos. O sexo feminino tinha menor nível de instrução (p=0,019). Para 20 DIC (40,0%) havia desconhecimento de ser DIC, em ambos os sexos. Verificou-se moderada e significativa correlação entre o score EQ-5D-3L e o domínio específico da QdV de KCCQ (ρ=0,452; p=0,001) e entre o score EQ-5D-3L e o KCCQ Overall Summary Scale (ρ=0,556; p<0,001). A distribuição por sexos das classes arbitrárias KCCQ e da distribuição EQ-5D-3l pela norma portuguesa foi não significativa, tendo a mulher sempre pior QdV. Discussão: O uso periódico de instrumentos que avaliam as consequências em saúde da terapêutica em DICs pode transformar o paradigma atual da terapêutica da insuficiência cardíaca (IC), sendo um deles a QdV, estando os médicos atentos a variáveis pessoais e sociais. Conclusão: Nesta amostra de 50 DICs, 70,0% apresentou má QdV genérica e 50,0% má QdV específica na IC, com piores resultados no sexo feminino.

Authors: Muchowski Eugen
Published: July 2024

It is shown that the superposition and entanglement of polarized photons can be explained by a local realistic model without introducing a hidden parameter. The basis of the modeling is that only relations between states of photon beams are predefined and not the states themselves. The actual state before a measurement has to be selected by a polarizer.

Authors: Hashoosh Ali Farhan
Published: July 2024

This article explores a specific case study that examines controllability and observability in general and in specific so that it is easy for the reader to understand these two concepts, which are fundamental in optimal control theory. Algorithms have been written to determine the controllability and observability of optimal control systems using the MATLAB programming language, and new techniques have been developed to deal with them. In addition, a critical test was created in which the state variables of the system or, more precisely, their corresponding states were split together, illustrating this with more than one example. Divided into four groups in a linear manner, as the article explains. To understand the controllability and observability of some more complex systems, this article is a starting point for the future expansion of these two concepts through the development of new algorithms or other applied solution methods or the creation of new algorithms.

Authors: Kim Soyean
Published: July 2024

Students’ adjustment and well-being in a cross-cultural context have become important topics in international higher education studies. This study explored the psychological mechanism underlying the impact of perceived discrimination and perceived health status on the subjective well-being of international students. The responses of 358 international students were analyzed using the survey datasets.   The results indicated that the perceived health status of international students had a significantly positive impact on their subjective well-being. Conversely, perceived discrimination had a negative impact on subjective well-being and community satisfaction. Notably, community satisfaction mediated the relationship between perceived discrimination and subjective well-being. Furthermore, the results revealed that the effect of community satisfaction on subjective well-being varied between the Asian and non-Asian students. These findings can assist higher education program providers in developing a community-oriented support system for students striving to adjust to cross-cultural environments.

Published: July 2024

University study is a period of psychological vulnerability for many individuals, especially international students, due to challenges of relocation and acculturation. The aim of this meta-analytic review was to synthesize the literature on the mental health outcomes of domestic and international tertiary students. A total of 35 studies were identified via searching four databases. Results showed that among 283,412 participants, very small but non-significant effects were found between domestic and international students on anxiety. Among high-quality studies, international students reported fewer symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress than domestic students. On the other hand, domestic students declared higher wellbeing scores. Despite these mixed findings, many students in the included studies reported poor mental health and wellbeing. Further research examining the mental health and wellbeing of domestic and international students is needed, with particular attention to the underlying needs and stressors that affect each subgroup to develop effective supports and countermeasures.
Implikasi Adopsi Anak di Negara Muslim Perspektif Maṣlaḣah Mursalah
Authors: Pratama Nurul Fikri Ilham
Published: July 2024

Pengangkatan anak atau adopsi merupakan bagian memperjuangkan hak anak guna memperoleh kasih sayang dan kehidupan yang layak beserta hak-hak yang seharusnya mereka dapatkan. Dengan mekanisme adopsi, anak-anak terlantar kembali mendapatkan tempat kasih sayang bernama keluarga, meski bukan bersama orang tua kandungnya. Di negara-negara muslim, pengangkatan anak memiliki kebijakan dan implikasi yang berbeda-beda yang disesuaikan dengan dinamika sosial dan politik masing-masing negara. Terdapat negara yang masih teguh dengan aturan fikih klasik, sedangkan yang lain telah merintis pembaruan hukum keluarga yang sudah beranjak dari fikih lama. Tujuan pengangkatan anak disetiap negara ialah sama-sama menginginkan kepentingan terbaik bagi anak, baik dalam perspektif kesetaraan, Hak Asasi Manusia (HAM) hingga masa depan bagi anak. Diperlukan tinjauan maṣlaḣah mursalah sebagai bagian refleksi hukum dari pencapaian reformasi hukum keluarga selama ini. Maṣlaḣah mursalah menguraikan suatu perbuatan hukum dengan meninjau ulang hal apa yang menjadi tujuan hukum berserta implikasi yang ditimbulkannya. Pengangkatan anak pada awalnya dilakukan atas dasar maslahah, namun di beberapa negara implikasi yang muncul terkadang berseberangan dengan dalil-dalil nash yang telah ditetapkan, seperti penghapusan nasab, pemberian nasab baru dari keluarga angkat hingga hubungan saling mewarisi. Penelitian kualitatif berbasis pustaka ini berusaha mengkaji lebih dalam terkait problematika adopsi anak di negara muslim dalam kerangka maṣlaḣah mursalah.

Tafsir mengenai ibadah kepada selain Allah berkaitan dengan QS. Al-Baqarah [2]:165-167 perlu mengalami pengembangan. Sebab, permasalahan yang dihadapiumat pada masa Nabi Muhammad berbeda dengan saat ini. Melihat penjelasan paraahli tafsir dalam menafsirkan QS. Al-Baqarah [2]: 165, terdapat beberapaperbedaan. Di antaranya, dalam mengartikan kata “andâdâ” yang mempunyai artibermacam-macam, ada pula yang mengartikannya sebagai saingan, pemimpin,tandingan, sekutu, dan sebagainya. Hipotesis penulis adalah pendekatan yang cocokuntuk mengatasi persoalan ini adalah pendekatan kontekstual ma’nâ cum maghzâ.Dalam penelitian ini ditemukan makna dinamis kontemporer (al-magzâ al-mutaharrik al-mu’âṣir) dalam QS. Al-Baqarah [2]: 165-167, yaitu laranganmenyembah selain Allah berlaku umum bagi seluruh manusia. Kemudian,perbuatan syirik pada masa awal Islam hanya dipahami sebagai penyembahanberhala. Namun saat ini berhala bisa berupa gadget, kekuasaan, pemimpin, jin, danlain-lain yang mencondongkan hati (cinta) pada ketaatan dan ketundukan, sehinggamelupakan perintah Allah dan melanggar larangan-Nya. Selanjutnya cinta kepadaAllah dalam konteks ayat ini adalah dengan konsisten beribadah hanya kepadaAllah dan mengerjakan segala perintah-Nya serta menjauhi larangan-Nya.

GENESIS AND EVOLUTION OF THE VALUE CHAIN CONCEPT IN THE CONTEXT OF FORMING INTERNATIONAL COMPETITIVENESS OF ENTERPRISES
Authors: Abdula Oleg ,   Vasyl’ Stus Donetsk National University
Published: July 2024

The aim of the article is to identify the ways and directions of the genesis and evolution of the value chain concept in the context of forming international competitiveness of enterprises The analysis of scientific research on this issue has shown that the concept of value chains originates from the teachings of the physiocrats, gained significant development from the 1940s onwards, and currently holds a prominent position in the forefront of management thought and analytical tools. It forms a powerful strategic planning instrument for analyzing the business environment and making managerial decisions to enhance the competitive advantages of an enterprise in the market. The study found that the value chain concept is based on process-oriented, adaptive, and strategic management approaches. It views the enterprise as a system that transforms available resources and ensures feedback among all management links to secure competitive advantages in the market. The functioning of value chains also determines the formation of enterprise profits. The value chain concept is a crucial tool for both macroeconomic analysis, identifying global trade trends, its impact on developed and transition economies, understanding directions of national development policies, and the integration of individual productions into sectoral complexes, as well as microeconomic analysis for forming strategies of differentiation and diversification for enterprise development. The value chain concept must consider and balance the goals of various stakeholders, including customers (satisfaction of needs, technical support), owners and shareholders (profit, profitability, development), the workforce (decent working conditions, professional growth), the community (responsible social and environmental policies, community involvement, promotion of a healthy lifestyle), and partners (collaboration based on stable, long-term, effective business relationships). Value chains in an enterprise include sequentially interconnected processes and actions aimed at producing goods and services that acquire added value by meeting consumer needs, thereby forming the enterprise’s competitive advantages. Analyzing value chain elements as a management tool increases business profitability and is an integral part of formalized strategic management business models (mission, strategy, corporate culture, performance indicators) and operational management. The analysis of value chain elements is a part of management accounting, marketing, and logistics. It provides a systematic approach to making managerial decisions about the functioning of value chains, which can disrupt the status quo among the links, performers, and beneficiaries in the economic relationship system that encompasses the value chains within an enterprise.

Published: July 2024

The article is dedicated to the study of foreign experience of crime prevention of foreigners and stateless persons with the formulation of scientifically based prospects for its implementation in Ukraine. The relevance of the selected issues is explained by the following circumstances: firstly, in the conditions of the ongoing war, a significant part of the population of Ukraine was forced to emigrate abroad and can potentially become either subjects or victims of criminal offenses; secondly, international cooperation in the most dangerous types of criminality is increasing, in particular: smuggling, illegal trafficking of weapons, drugs, human trafficking (including involvement in prostitution), theft of cultural and historical values, etc.; thirdly, the identities of criminals (criminal offenders) – foreigners and stateless persons – have not been fully studied, especially their criminogenic behaviour in the conditions of modern national and world realities. It is emphasized that crime prevention of foreigners and stateless persons in Ukraine is impossible without a study of the positive experience of law enforcement agencies functioning in foreign countries, which assign a priority role in their activities to the prevention of criminal offenses in a certain area. The conducted research on the study of the experience of developed foreign countries in the field of crime prevention of foreigners and stateless persons provides grounds for determining the following forms of its implementation to preventive activities in Ukraine: 1) use of the experience of the USA and European countries in the preparation of conceptual legal acts in the field of crime prevention of foreigners and stateless persons; 2) use by law enforcement structures (in particular, the police) and non-state structures of civil society of positive foreign practices of crime prevention by foreigners and stateless persons; 3) use of opportunities for international cooperation in the field of combating criminality of foreigners and stateless persons, as well as preventing the commission of criminal offenses against these categories of persons who are on the territory of Ukraine. Key words: war, martial law, criminal offense, identity of a criminal (criminal offender), victim of a criminal offense, victimhood, determinants, forced migration, foreigners, stateless persons, criminality, smuggling, illegal weapon trafficking, illegal drug trafficking, prevention measures, subjects of prevention, law enforcement agencies, foreign experience, international cooperation, criminal proceedings, investigation, procedural actions.

The article defines the role and place of the inquirer in the general social prevention of criminal offenses. It has been proven that the general social directions of preventing criminal offenses by the inquirer consist in the implementation by the official of the inquiry unit of the activity defined at the regulatory and legal level, which, with the use of procedural and non-procedural measures of influence, is aimed at increasing the level of effectiveness of the implementation of criminological security measures by identifying, neutralizing, blocking, eliminating causes and conditions of illegal activity, carrying out an educational influence on the offender with the further creation of prerequisites for the implementation of special criminological and individual preventive measures. The system-forming features that make up the content of this concept include the following: 1) it is the activity of inquirers, which is defined at the regulatory and legal level; 2) this activity is aimed at neutralizing, blocking, eliminating, etc. determinants that contribute to the commission of criminal offenses; 3) general social prevention of criminal offenses carried out by inquiry bodies, aimed, among other things, at increasing the level of effectiveness of state social policy implementation. Within the framework of general social directions of prevention, with the aim of consolidating the preventive function in the criminal process, part 1 of Art. 91 of the Criminal and Procedural Code of Ukraine should be supplemented with the following clause: «8) reasons and conditions that contributed to the commission of criminal offenses», as well as new articles: Art. 92-1 «Circumstances to be established when proving the causes of a criminal offense», Art. 92-2 «Submission of the inquirer, investigator, prosecutor in criminal proceedings».

Authors:   Institute of Professional Development  Penitentiary Academy of Ukraine,  Chernihiv, Ukraine, Dudka N.O.
Published: July 2024

The humanization of execution of punishment has become the main goal of reforming the penitentiary sector on Ukraine’s path to European integration. The penitentiary system changed with the adoption of the Law of Ukraine “On Probation” in 2015. The Law of Ukraine “On Probation”, which defines the principles of the national probation model, created in accordance with the probation standards set out in Recommendation CM/Rec (2010) 1 of the Committee of Ministers of the Council of Europe to Member States on the Council of Europe Rules on Probation. The law defines probation not only as an alternative type of punishment, but also as a measure of influence that has a criminal law and social and educational character. Supervision of the offender is one of the components of probation, and it is considered not only a control function, but also a means of counseling, assistance or motivation. A significant amendment to the Criminal Code of Ukraine is the introduction of a new type of punishment – probation supervision. Probation supervision is a punishment alternative to imprisonment. The peculiarity of probation supervision for juveniles is that this type of punishment is imposed for a period of one to two years. The article is devoted to characterizing the issues of implementation of probation measures in relation to juveniles in modern conditions, taking into account the changes to the current legislation of Ukraine. The concepts of “probation” as a new system of work with convicts and “probation supervision” as a new type of punishment are revealed. The reasons for the introduction of probation supervision into the current legislation are determined. The aspects of probation supervision in relation to juveniles are considered. The author defines the obligations that the court imposes on a convicted person subject to probationary supervision; the obligations that the court may impose on a convicted person subject to probationary supervision. The term of probationary supervision in respect of juveniles has been established. Key words: probation, probation system, probation body, probation for minors, probation supervision, complex impact, sentenced to probation supervision, duties of the convicted.
WORK WITH OFFENDERS WITHIN SUPERVISED PROBATION
Authors:   Scientifis Research Institute  of Intellectual Property of the National Academy  of Legal Sciences of Ukraine,  Kyiv, Ukraine, Iakovets I.S.
Published: July 2024

The author of the article analyzes the powers of probation authorities to work with offenders within the framework of supervised probation, and considers the available tools for influencing the behavior of such persons and their correlation with other forms of social and educational influence. The article emphasizes that the activities of probation authorities are not only about ensuring control over the behavior of such persons and implementing probation programs when they are appointed by a court sentence, but also about forming the necessary cooperation and creating conditions which allow for effective influence on criminogenic factors to overcome or reduce them. To this end, supervised probation should include the study of individual and group characteristics of offenders, and the capabilities of other agencies and institutions involved in overcoming the problem of domestic violence. Supervised probation is a way of state influence on the process of punishing offenders, determining the need to extend the measure of criminal coercion, as well as a way to determine the effectiveness of the criminal liability measure and provides for the existence of a system of measures for regular or random monitoring of the behavior of convicts. The Recommendation Rec(2010)1 of the Committee of Ministers to Member States on the Council of Europe Probation Rules states that probation, based on actions and measures of educational influence, is designed to ensure the enforcement of statutory sentences through supervision in order to involve convicts in public life and ensure the safety of society. At the same time, supervision should be viewed not only as a control function, but also as a means of counseling, assisting or motivating prisoners. The same document emphasizes that the probation service should work in cooperation with other public or private organizations and local governments to facilitate the reintegration of prisoners into society. Coordinated and complementary activities of different agencies based on the application of different branches of science are necessary to solve the sometimes complex problems of convicts and ensure the safety of society. The probation service should interact with other bodies and institutions of the justice system, with agencies that support its activities, and with the public to effectively perform its duties and functions. 38. The probation service should encourage the agencies supporting its activities so that they take responsibility for solving the problems of convicts as members of society. The article reveals the role of supervised probation in national realities and highlights its problematic aspects in the context of working with offenders. Key words: convicts, probation, supervised probation, subject of supervised probation, criminal law measures not related to the isolation of offenders, interaction of probation authorities, organizational and legal mechanism of probation interaction.
STIMULATION OF LAW-ABIDING BEHAVIOUR OF CONVICTS AS A PRIORITY VECTOR OF DEVELOPMENT OF THE STATE POLICY IN THE FIELD OF EXECUTION OF CRIMINAL SENTENCES AND PROBATION
Authors:   Penitentiary Academy of Ukraine,  Chernihiv, Ukraine, Liubarskyi O.M.
Published: July 2024

The article reveals the theoretical and applied foundations, essence and content of stimulating law-abiding behaviour of convicts. In particular, it is noted that every convict is a human being, has inalienable natural rights and human dignity, and his/her personality is formed in the society where he/she received genetic information, where he/she has violated the law, and where the offender’s unlawful behaviour and crime in general are determined, therefore it is the duty of civil society and the State to help him/her to form law-abiding behaviour. The article argues that the development of the State policy in the field of execution of criminal sentences and probation by optimising the incentives for law-abiding behaviour of convicts is in line with the current progressive trends in legal understanding and legal culture, which are reflected in the documents of the United Nations, the Council of Europe, the case law of the European Court of Human Rights and the legislation of the most effective penitentiary policies in Europe, which emphasize the need to assist in developing the motives for law-abiding behaviour and to help in the development of the The article determines that negative trends in the current realities of crime and the execution of sentences, in particular, the absence of trends in reducing the number of prisoners and the number of prisoners per 100,000 population, as well as disappointing recidivism rates inherent in many European countries and the United States of America, determine the development of the state policy in the field of execution of criminal sentences and probation by optimising the incentives for law-abiding behaviour of convicts. As an example, the author analyses the dynamics of crime and the number of prisoners in the Kingdom of Sweden for 2000-2023. The article also highlights the financial and economic feasibility of the presented concept. Key words: stimulation of law-abiding behaviour of convicts, state policy in the field of execution of criminal sentences and probation, penitentiary system, rehabilitation, reintegration, correction, convicts, prisoners, crime, recidivism.

The constitutional principles of a democratic and legal state guide the development of Ukraine in the direction of people’s rule and a legal state. Therefore, the subsystem of legal norms regulating homogeneous relations in the sphere of public and state maintenance of law and order acquires special importance for the materialization of formal and declarative norms about a democratic and legal state. Therefore, it is relevant to substantiate the need to separate the rules (norms) of public (public) order and disciplinary responsibility for their violation from the branches of administrative legislation into a separate branch according to the postulates of law. It is appropriate that the state regulation of behavior in public (public) places should be set out in the Code of Public Order. And the norms regulating responsibility for land, forest, air, etc. misdemeanors were transferred to the basic codes regulating legal relations in the relevant spheres of socio-economic life. At the same time, the primary task is to update and reform legislation based on the postulates and axioms of legal theories. The formation and development of civil society, organized into a democratic, social, legal state, in accordance with the principle of popular sovereignty, leads to changes in the very essence of delictological legal relations, a return to the postulates of legal theory (in the context of revived natural law). The separation of prescriptions and sanctioned customs of public order into an independent branch of law by including public rules regulating this order in its institutions forms a system of norms of public legal order. The proposed differentiation and systematization of legal responsibility is the basis for bringing the legal system into compliance with the axioms of the theory of law (jurisprudence) based on the postulates of Roman civil law. This will contribute to the improvement of both public order, in particular, and the development of civil society institutions, democracy, and the establishment of the rule of law in general. As well as the humanization of legal responsibility, the spread of educational and psychological measures of social (moral) responsibility, the strengthening of the discipline of social coexistence, the education of citizens’ self-discipline as a component of individual legal awareness. The transfer of norms regarding the responsibility for land offenses of private law officials and citizens to the basic land code will allow to systematize and separate the norms regarding the direct administrative responsibility of public law officials (state authorities, local self-government bodies) for illegal actions (inaction), land offenses in the field of management. Key words: legal responsibility, criminal offense, administrative offense, land offenses, land offenses in the field of management, public order, public misdemeanor.

The article analyzes the issues of competence of public authorities as subjects of legal relations in the field of military-technical cooperation. Based on the functional division of state power, the structure of state authorities in the field of military-technical cooperation is considered. It is stated that the only legislative body in Ukraine is the Parliament, the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine. The relevant government bodies, primarily the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine, represent the executive branch of government. Based on the functional approach, the author proposes a three-tier system of central executive bodies in the field of military-technical cooperation, which includes: Level I – the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine; Level II – ministries of Ukraine (Ministry of Defense, Ministry of Strategic Industries, Ministry of Finance); Level III – state services, state inspections, state agencies, independent regulators and bodies with special status (State Export Control Service, State Space Agency). It was noted that an advisory body should be established with the competence to deal with military-technical cooperation, namely: The Interagency Commission on Military-Technical Cooperation and Export Control Policy, which is an advisory body to the President of Ukraine. Key words: military-technical cooperation, international cooperation, subjects of legal relations, public authorities, military-industrial complex.

The current research aims to identify the emotional regulation among postgraduate students and the significance of differences in emotional regulation according to the variables of gender (male - female) and specialization (scientific - humanities). The researchers prepared an emotional regulation scale consisting of (24) items distributed over five domains (situation selection, situation modification, cognitive change, attention deployment, response modulation). The research was conducted on a sample of (277) male and female students at the University of Dhi Qar. The items of the scale were statistically analyzed to calculate their discriminative ability and validity coefficients. The researchers verified the face validity and construct validity indicators of the scale and calculated the reliability coefficient (alpha - test-retest). To ensure the research procedures and results, the researchers used appropriate statistical methods. The results are as follows:

Postgraduate students possess emotional regulation.
There are no statistically significant differences according to the variables of gender (male - female) and specialization (scientific - humanities).

The results were interpreted based on theory, the theoretical framework, and the results of previous studies. In light of the findings of the current research, the researchers made several recommendations and suggestions.
Recommendations: The Ministry of Education should hold training workshops and specialized seminars to increase awareness of emotional regulation at all educational stages, which can enhance and stimulate strategic thinking.
Suggestions: Study the correlational relationship between emotional regulation and other variables such as aggressive behavior.
