Authors: Margolin B. Z. , Yurchenko E. V. , Morozov A. M. , Varovin A. Ya.
Published: April 2022

Experimental studies have been carried out regarding the effect of annealing temperature on the degree of properties recovery of supporting structures materials for WWER-440 reactor vessels (low-strength ferritic-pearlitic steel and its weld metal) irradiated at low temperatures (50–90°C). Properties connected with material embrittlement have been determined on the basis of test results of tensile specimens, impact bending specimens and fracture toughness specimens. Dependence of properties recovery coefficient on annealing temperature have been determined. It is shown that for material with high content of copper dependence of properties recovery coefficient on annealing temperature may be nonmonotonic.

PURPOSE: The purpose of the present research note is to give an overview of research in the field of risk management in leasing SMEs as well as to present fields for future research. It intends to encourage other researchers to fill the current gap in research on risk management in general and on risk management in (German leasing) SMEs in particular. DESIGN/METHOD: The research note is based on interviews with 40 German leasing firms, thereof 35 SMEs. Qualitative research was chosen due to the nascent knowledge area and to explore cause-effect- -relationships as well as to gain a deeper understanding of the practical requirements on risk management. RESULTS/FINDINGS: A research framework was presented based on the findings of the literature review. Based on the interviews, the framework could be drilled down into more operative, leasing-specific topics. Amongst others, it could be found that the risk management organisation is greatly shaped by the underlying risk strategy, the motivation for risk management, as well as the essential risks. These three elements form the basis for the operative and strategic risk management practice. Furthermore, it was differentiated in the different lifecycle phases of risk management. ORIGINALITY/VALUE: The presented research note is based on the first known research in the field of risk management for German leasing SMEs with a comparable number of interviews. Therefore, this research note includes a high degree of novelty. Adapting the findings in practice as well as combining it with other research questions might add significant value to risk management research as well as practice not only limited to the German leasing industry.

Authors:   Cracow University of Economics, College of Economics, Finance and Law, Institute of Economics, Poland, Storz Paweł
Published: April 2022

PURPOSE: The main purpose of this article is to present the activities of countries actively participating in the global crude oil market, which have a key impact on economic processes on a global scale. The actions of OPEC countries use crude oil as an instrument in the international economic policy to influence changes both in the global economy and the geopolitical dimension. It is important to identify and discuss the events that provided a benchmark for OPEC+ countries to take actions on the global oil market in 2020 to try to change the share of the global oil market in an geopolitical aspect. DESIGN/METHOD: The research methods used in this article are the critical literature analysis and numerical data analysis. In this study, the author presents the statement that resource-rich countries increasingly treat crude oil as a tool in the economic policy to influence changes in economic processes on a global scale in order to increase their competitive position, as well as to deliberately create the negative phenomena in a form of price wars that only serve to achieve the set goals in the economic policy of these countries. RESULTS/FINDINGS: The obtained research results-reveal that conscious creation of price wars, the occurrence of oil crises on the global oil market, or the possession of significant deposits of the raw material in question, are treated by the governments of countries worldwide as a tool in itself in order to conduct the economic policy of countries, taking into account the overarching aspect of the broad impact on the manner of conducting the international economic policy of countries on the global oil market. The world the oil market experienced several significant events that caused strong changes from the point of view of the development of the world economy. Decisions held within the framework of the OPEC (and OPEC+) organisation have a narrower impact on the global oil market, however, within a wider global economy they affect the global economic processes. In conjunction with the Covid-19 pandemic, the policy of OPEC+ organisation is affecting the geopolitical changes and the foreign economic policy of every country in the world. ORIGINALITY/VALUE: The contribution to the development of the discipline is the presentation of the events and activities of countries actively participating in the global oil market in 2020, as an attempt to gain a competitive advantage and changes in the geopolitical aspect.

Published: April 2022

PURPOSE: The aim of the paper is to determine the impact of insolvency of one company from Poland on job and wage satisfaction (as well as the individual perception of the situation of the employee, company and region) among a group of former employees of this insolvent company who became employed by a new employer. DESIGN/METHOD: Conducted research entailed collecting survey data from two groups of employees working at the same company: one group with the experience of company insolvency and a group of employees without such an experience. Data analysis involved the Pearson’s chi-square test of independence and Cramér’s V, as well as Shapiro-Wilk test for normality employed to compare distributions of answers in both analyzed groups. RESULTS/FINDINGS: Conducted analysis confirmed the existence of the relationship between the experience of company insolvency and job and wage satisfaction. Individuals that experienced insolvency of their former employer revealed significantly higher job and wage satisfaction than others. These individuals were also less willing to look for another job, felt appreciated at work and were more optimistic about career perspectives after reemployment. Besides, significant differences between distributions of answers in both analysed groups were observed: for the group of employees with the experience of company insolvency the null hypothesis of normal distribution of answers was rejected for the majority of variables, while in the other group only for one variable. ORIGINALITY/VALUE: It is the first study that analyses the impact of company insolvency on individual perceptions and job and wage satisfaction within a group of former employees that were later employed (as a group) by a new employer. KEYWORDS: insolvency, bankruptcy, job satisfaction, wage satisfaction. JEL: J28, J63, J65

The development of Information and Communication Technology today has grown very rapidly, this is evidenced by the emergence of sophisticated technological equipment that has changed the lifestyle of humans at this time. As a teacher, of course we must be able to adjust the way of educating them according to their way of life in the digital era. Teachers are required to carry out an innovation in the learning process in the classroom, to support the needs needed in implementing active learning in the classroom, there is a need for media that can support the implementation of learning optimally to spur effective communication skills through active learning that integrates information and communication technology. namely Digital Storytelling (digital storytelling) which is a strategy to use a computer application program that combines audio and visual media. This study used a quantitative research approach with the type of pre-experimental designs with the form of one group pretest posttest design. The decision making of hypothesis testing uses the help of the SPSS version 25 program. The hypothesis testing technique uses the paired sample t-test and simple linear regression. The results obtained through the paired sample t-test in SPSS version 25, namely the sig value. (2- tailed) of 0.001. In accordance with the basis of decision making in the paired sample T-test that the sig. (2-tailed) <0.05 or 0.001 <0.05, then H0 is rejected and Ha is accepted. This means that there is a significant difference between the pretest and posttest results. To find out what percentage of this influence is, it is necessary to look for the coefficient of determination (R Square) with a simple linear regression test in SPSS version 25 and it was found that the effect of Digital Storytelling on student learning outcomes is 0.142 or 14.2% which can be concluded that Digital Storytelling has an effect. which is very low on student learning outcomes at SMKN 1 Kendit.

Impaired contractility in mutation-specific hypertrophic cardiomyopathy: a mechano-energetic in silico study with pharmacological insights
Authors: Forouzandehmehr Mohamadamin , Paci Michelangelo , Koivumäki Jussi , Hyttinen Jari
Published: April 2022

Introduction: Mavacamten (MAVA), Blebbistatin (BS), and Omecamtiv
mecarbil (OM) are promising drugs directly targeting sarcomere dynamics,
with demonstrated efficacy against hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) in
clinical trials. However, the molecular mechanism by which they affect
the cardiac contractility regulation, and the diseased cell
mechano-energetics are yet to be fully understood. Methods: We present a
metabolic-sensitive computational model of human induced pluripotent
stem cell derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CMs) electromechanics to
investigate the pathology of R403Q HCM mutation and the effect of MAVA,
BS, and OM on the cell mechano-energetics. Results: The added
thermodynamic formulations to the contractile element capture the
prolonged contractile relaxation due to R403Q mutation
(~33%) without assuming any further modifications such
as an additional Ca2+ flux to the thin filaments. Our HCM model variant
correctly predicts the insignificant alteration in ATPase activity in
R403Q HCM condition compared to normal hiPSC-CMs. The simulated
inotropic effects of MAVA, OM, and BS, along with the ATPase activities
in the control and HCM model variant agree with in vitro results from
different labs. The proposed model recapitulates the tension-Ca2+
relationship and action potential duration change due to 1uM OM and 5uM
BS consistent with in vitro data. Finally, our model replicates
experimental dose-dependent effect of OM and BS on the normalised
isometric tension. Conclusion: This work introduces a mechanistic in
silico method, extending the well-established ion channel blocking
formalism, to simulate the effect of compounds that predominantly affect
the metabolic-sensitive interfilament kinetics accelerating the
development of future HCM therapeutics.
Blow-up and asymptotic behavior of solutions for a class of fourth-order hyperbolic equations with mixed damping
Authors: LI XIAOLEI , Liu Miaomiao
Published: April 2022

This paper analyzes the following initial and boundary value problem of
fourth-order hyperbolic equations by means of the potential well method
u+Δu-▽u-ωΔu+α(t)|u|u=|u|u,
x∈Ω,t≧0, u(x,0)=u(x),
u(x,0)=u(x), x∈Ω u(x,t)=Δu(x,t)=0,
x∈∂Ω, t≧0. Firstly, we build up ordinary differential inequalities to
show the blow-up of the solution and the upper bounds for lifespan are
also given in the case of initial data at different energy level.
Subsequently, we discuss some results about lower bounds for lifespan
with different critical case. For supercritical case, we invent the
techniques which apply the interpolation inequality and energy
inequalities to estabilish an inverse Hölder inequality with the
correction constant. At last, we study the asymptotic behavior of global
solutions in a potential well and obtain some convergence rates by using
multiplier method.
Solutions of partial differential equations for modeling and development of solid structures
Authors: Ali Addisu , Workineh Habtamu Geremew
Published: April 2022

Recently, solutions of partial differential equations (PDEs) are under
investigation as an effective tool for geometric modeling and shape
generation to develop smooth-edge structures. Three-dimensional shape
modeling needs the completeness of geometric queries in a design and
optimization processes. In this paper, a novel modeling technique using
solutions of six-order partial differential equations (PDEs) has been
developed to model a 3D shape with a set of boundary conditions. The
advantages of using solutions of PDEs for geometry generation over other
techniques are PDEs-based solid modeling needs smaller number of
parameters and can automatically guarantee some intrinsic smoothness
which is not easily achieved in spline-based blending and other
conventional techniques. Based on the developed solutions of PDEs, the
optimal cell sizes of Body-Centered Cubic (BCC) and Face-Centered Cubic
(FCC) lattice structures have been generated which shows smooth
structures compared to other conventional techniques. The developed
lattice structures have been optimized using fmincon and genetic
algorithms. The optimized BCC unit cell width and strut radius are
determined to be 0.01 m and 0.0013 m respectively. For the FCC lattice
structure, a 0.001 m strut radius and 0.0099 m unit cell width were
determined. Finally, these optimal dimensions were used to generate the
solid structures and the stresses were evaluated using analytical and
ANSYS simulations. The stresses evaluation results indicate that when
the aspect ratio becomes 1 the uniform values were obtained.

Women are faced with gender differences in the inclusion into the society. Nine respondents participated in this research which consisted of three female community members, three women residents, and three men residents around the Banyu Bening community, Sleman Regency, Yogyakarta, Indonesia. The triangulation of data sources included the community leader, community members, and one of the participating families. The data analysis model used was from Miles and Huberman. The results showed that women played a very important role in the utilization and teaching on rainwater utilization. Women are the main pillars in the success of education and environmental management, especially at the family level. They are the most capable of providing teaching and developing environmental attitudes in their children and the community, and they are also the agents of change and teaching on sustainable environment.
Nighttime lights-innovative approach for identification of temporal and spatial changes in population distribution
Authors: Panic Milena , Drobnjakovic Marija , Stanojevic Gorica , Kokotovic-Kanazir Vlasta , Doljak Dejan
Published: April 2022

Nighttime lights represent the result of satellite observation of the
artificial lighting of human activities on the Earth from space during the
night, which provides the excellent opportunity to determine their position,
pattern, density, and spatial distribution. Such data have a high detail
spatial and temporal resolution, which opens a wide range of possibilities
for quantitative and qualitative analysis. In this paper, nighttime lights
are used as a highly accurate dataset for indirect tracking of changes in
temporal and spatial patterns of population distribution and activity in
Serbia. Two indicators were applied-Lighted area and Sum of lights. They are
calculated for local government units in Serbia, for 2015 and period
2015-2019. The results of the conducted analysis follow the conclusions of
the existing knowledge on population distribution based on the official
statistical data. Areas with a high share of lighted areas are dominantly
urban and the most populated, while traditionally depopulated areas are with
a low share of lighted areas. Sum of lights highlighted the distinction
between developed and populated north and depressive and depopulated south
of Serbia. General conclusion is that ?dark has fallen in Serbia?, not only
in peripheral and rural parts of the country, but in the smaller urban
centers as well, and it is steadily spreading toward bigger urban areas.
With nighttime lights application, this kind of process in terms of spatial
disparities, its scope and dynamics can be easily identified, analyzed, and
monitored.
Digital economy in Serbia: Results and prospects
Authors: Bukvic Rajko
Published: April 2022

The paper considers the results of the digital economy building in Serbia. It begins from the opinion generally accepted in the modern science that ICT (information and communication technologies) are important drivers, which ?enables? technologies that have a broad impact on many sectors of the economy and social life. In this framework, the measuring the level of ICT development, their economic and social impact, and the country?s readiness to use them must be of great importance. In the first part of the paper some indicators of the use of ICT technologies in Serbia are presented. Further, we present some data of the ICT sector of Serbian economy (number of employees, share in the GDP, foreign trade and foreign direct investments, as well the number of companies). On the basis of such indicators Serbia can be classified as an ?emerging leader? (?????????). At the end we present the results of a research (Goloventchik and Zhyrkevich), in which the composite index of the digital transformation was constructed on the basis of nine broad used indicators.
Psychological research in dance
Authors: Vukadinovic Maja
Published: April 2022

This paper examines dance as a significant ethnological, historical, geographical, sociological, artistic, musical, aesthetic, psychological, biological, and psychotherapeutic phenomenon. The main focus is on its psychological aspects and the interconnectedness of psychological and physical components, which enables a unique experience not only for the person who dances but also for the observers. In the first part, the complex phenomenon of dance is elaborated, differences between spontaneous dance and dance as an artistic discipline are highlighted and a new comprehensive definition of dance is offered. Secondly, different aspects of dance are looked at through the prism of questions that intrigue researchers in various psychological disciplines such as developmental psychology, social, cognitive, health and clinical psychology, physiological, evolutionary, and finally the psychology of creativity. The last chapter provides the basic determinants of artistic dance from the perspective of the psychology of creativity. Specific issues related to artistic dance are discussed, including the characteristics of a creative person - choreographer or performer, creative process, work of art - dance, audience and creative environment. The paper concludes with a brief overview of the importance of psychology for the field of dance, and vice versa, emphasizing the continuous interchange between the two.
Variations on I and Thou
Authors: CLARKSON PETRUSKA
Published: April 2022

This paper considers that there are five identifiable, interweaving but potentially distinct kinds of therapeutic relationships to be found in Gestalt theory and practice. These are the working alliance, the "unfinished" (or transference/countertransference) relationship, the reparative (and/or developmental) relationship, the I-You (or dialogic relationship), and the transpersonal relationship. Each and all of these modalities are available for constructive use in Gestalt clinical work and its supervision to nuance theoretical understanding, refine conscientious research, and contribute to the development of our discipline.

Published: April 2022

One of the aims of Gestalt Review is to encourage communication between those of us who have extensive contact with each other and those other vital areas of Gestalt activity about which many of us know very little. Last winter, I wrote to Francisco Huneeus, the current Spanish language publisher of my The Gestalt Therapy Book, in Santiago, Chile, to ask him to write about Gestalt therapy in South America for Gestalt Review. Huneeus suggested I write to Marta Slemenson, who was writing an introduction on that topic for Huneeus's edition of Taylor Stoehr's Here Now Next, the wonderful book on Paul Goodman's role in the development of Gestalt therapy. The ensuing lively correspondence produced the following article, which consists of that introduction and a preface written especially for Gestalt Review. J. L.
“Syllabus Day” Reinvented: Reimagining the First Day of Class for Accounting Courses
Authors: Hale Kevin , Wetmiller Rebecca J
Published: April 2022

The traditional first day of class includes the instructor reading from the syllabus, sharing personal details, and performing icebreakers. This approach to “syllabus day” often gives students a negative first impression of the course, which may limit full understanding of course policies, hinder student motivation, and decrease instructor evaluations. This paper proposes a novel approach to “syllabus day,” which includes completing an information search quiz, building a final course grade “estimator” in Excel, and drafting a professional memo. These engaging activities are designed to increase students' understanding of course policies by examining the syllabus for an accounting course and to develop workplace readiness skills vital to an accounting career. Student feedback indicates that our approach to the first class gives students a better understanding of information included in the syllabus compared to other classes, is more interesting than typical initial class meetings, and is recommended for use in other courses.
Evolution in Value Relevance of Accounting Information
Authors: Barth Mary E. , Li Ken , McClure Charles G.
Published: April 2022

We address how value relevance of accounting information evolved as the new economy developed. Prior research concludes that accounting information—primarily earnings—has lost relevance. We consider more accounting items and find no decline in combined value relevance from 1962 to 2018. We assess evolution in each item’s value relevance and find increases, most notably for items related to intangible assets, growth opportunities, and alternative performance measures, which are important in the new economy. The number of relevant items also increases. We also consider separately new economy, old economy profit, and old economy loss firms. The trends are more pronounced for, but extend beyond, new economy firms. We base inferences on a nonparametric approach that does not require specifying the valuation relation. Taken together, our findings reveal an evolution to a more nuanced, but not declining, relation between accounting information and share price.

Published: April 2022

Laser paint removal is a new highly efficient and environmentally friendly cleaning technology. Compared with traditional paint removal methods, laser paint removal is less labor intensive and can reduce environmental pollution. During laser paint removal, real-time monitoring is necessary to ensure efficient cleaning and process automation. Current methods for real-time monitoring of laser paint removal only determine whether the sample surface has been cleaned but provide no information on the status of any residual paint. In this article, spectral data of the sample surface have been obtained using laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy. It is shown that Zn and Fe spectral lines can be used in real time to characterize the effectiveness of paint removal and that the intensities of characteristic spectral lines are positively correlated with the single-pulse energy of the excitation light. The K-nearest neighbor algorithm was used to evaluate and automatically classify the extent of cleaning of sample surfaces in real time. When K = 3, the classification accuracy of distinguishing different levels of cleaning was 100%. The results of this study provide technical support for automatic and intelligent laser paint removal.

Failure to be autonomous in the social personality during the adolescence period would have bad impact in the subsequent ages. The aims of the research were (1) to describe the level of autonomy competence of social personality in one of private Junior High schools, (2) to identify the items of the Inventory of Adolescent Social Personality Autonomy Competence (IASPAC) in the low and very low categories as the base to propose the topics of social personality guidance in one of the private junior high schools in Yogyakarta. The research subjects were the 141 students in grades VII, VIII, and IX. The research instrument was Inventory of Adolescent Social Personality Autonomy Competence (IASPAC) numbering 39 items which were composed by the researcher on the ground of the autonomy competence standards in the American School Counselor Association (ASCA) model, at the reliability value of 0.935. The data analysis was descriptive analysis with the categorization of the average numbers. The research result showed that as a whole the autonomy competence in the social personality of the students in one of the private junior high-schools in Yogyakarta was categorized as ‘autonomous’, with the following details, 18 students (12.7%) were categorized as ‘very high’, 104 students (73.7%) were categorized as ‘high’, 19 students (13.48%) were categorized as ‘medium’, and none of the students were categorized as ‘low’ and ‘very low’. There were many differences in the average of the social personality autonomy competence among the grade VII, VIII, and IX students. The grade VII students’ level of social personality autonomy competence was higher than that of the grade VIII and IX students. The other finding was that there were 10 items of the IASPAC with the lowest scores. These items would be used as the basis to propose topics for classical guidance of the social personality.

UTILIZING AUDACITY AUDIO-RECORDING SOFTWARE TO IMPROVE CONSECUTIVE AND SIMULTANEOUS INTERPRETING SKILLS
Authors: Sumarni Laurentia
Published: April 2022

In interpreting, the biggest problem is the evaluation of students’ performance in consecutive interpreting and simultaneous interpreting. The large number of students in the class leads to the small amount of time distributed to evaluate students’ interpreting effectively. To overcome this problem, the Audacity audio- recording software is used to help students practice interpreting independently and to help the lecturer to conduct interpreting tests simultaneously. The classroom action research aims to find out how the teaching learning process is conducted and how the students use Audacity to improve their consecutive and simultaneous interpreting skills. This research was conducted to 25 seventh-semester students taking the Interpreting class. The research instruments were Reflection Sheet and Lecturer’s Field Notes. From the students’ reflection and Lecturer’s Notes, most students understood the phases of interpreting and some students were still confused to differentiate between consecutive and simultaneous interpreting. The skills that they developed during the course were concentrating, listening, taking notes, paraphrasing, and public speaking. The use of Audacity was able to help them practice consecutive and simultaneous interpreting skills. An in-depth research to find out students’ perception on the use of Audacity to improve their consecutive and simultaneous interpreting skills must be conducted.
MORAL EDUCATION TO EMPOWER CONSCIENCE, MIND AND VOLITION TO IMPROVE THE QUALITY OF HUMAN BEINGS
Authors: Wahana Paulus
Published: April 2022

Human beings are the highest form of Gods creation among other creatures. Moral education is carried out to enable human beings to live up to their noble purpose of life as destined by God. In order to strive for their noble destiny, human beings have three spiritual powers that must be empowered and utilized in their lives, namely conscience, mind, and volition. In order for those powers to be useful optimally, they must be empowered. In order to empower conscience, it is necessary to cultivate silence in life so that we are able to listen to the gentle whisper of conscience which leads to a good life as the purpose in the journey of life. To prevent the conscience from straying, it needs to have a moral compass which would be the basis to determine the next steps. Furthermore, one should have clear mind to determine the ways, steps, means, and directions to arrive at the expected goal. Finally, in order to realize the qualified life, which has been determined to be done, human beings have willpower to follow up. To determine and decide something, human beings must be courageous to take action. In order to be courageous to take action, we need to have a strong consideration that what we are doing is good and right. Thus, we will dare to be held accountable for any outcomes of the actions we have taken as right and just. That is, essentially, the true human destiny, namely to strive for goodness and truth.DOI:https://doi.org/10.24071/ijiet.2018.020109
Tsubasa: Reservoir Chronicle: entre el śūnyatā y la posmodernidad
Authors: Castelli Olvera Sarahi Isuki
Published: April 2022

En este artículo se sustenta que el manga Tsubasa: Reservoir Chronicle, del colectivo CLAMP y publicado en Japón entre 2003 y 2009, cuenta con una estructura narrativa fundamentada en un diálogo donde la tradición filosófico-religiosa converge y se mezcla con lo posmoderno. Este argumento se opone a las propuestas del discurso tradicionalista, el cual enfatiza los rasgos distintivos de la tradición japonesa y tiende a pasar por alto el impacto histórico de lo extranjero. El análisis se basa en el paradigma de inferencias indiciales de la microhistoria, con la identificación de detalles significativos. En cuanto a los referentes teóricos, se recurre a la teoría de la posmodernidad desde dos vertientes: una oriental y otra occidental, planteadas por Steven Heine, Fredrick Jameson y Jean Baudrillard.
