Published: January 2022

Problem and goal. The article deals with the process of designing the high school internship program of the ITMO Universitys Information Chemistry Center by using information and communications technology (ICT). The program development process involved following stages: client briefing, exploratory study, hypotheses-formation processes and its testing, custom development, learning experience design and project defense. Methodology. The high school students views about the Infochemistry Internship Program were analyzed. Authors conduc- ted in-depth interviews with respondents and retrieved information about students scientific achievements, challenges and recommendations for improving the internship program. During the exploratory research stage the high school internship programs of Russian and foreign universities in the field of biology, chemistry, physics and IT were studied. The initial sample was composed of Stanford University Mathematics Camp (SUMaC), Stanford University Science Circle, Harvard University Summer School (Pre-College Program), Chemistry Research Academy of University of Pennsylvania. Three types of scientific practices - summer camp or summer school, university science circle and a research academy - were identified. Results. The authors emphasized that there is not a single high school internship program in the field of chemistry in Russia like at IMTO University. This immerse education program is based on laboratory learning that allows students experience chemistry principles under the guidance of leading scientists. The concept of the program based on the science education model. It involves the personalized learning pathway, scaffolding activities, and participation in the research project. Flexible learning pathway is the core of the program that includes various levels of personalization: project, scaffolding means, pace of learning, educational content, educational result. To prove the importance of using ICT and social media in educational process authors found the results of the research conducted by University College Dublin and University of Melbourne. Conclusion. The paper has highlighted the significance of revamping internship programs, identified the most common types of scientific practices and proved the importance of selected program principles.
Revisiting Architectural Structuralism: Archi-Cultural Pattern as a Method to Read the Meaning of Tamkesi Vernacular Architecture
Authors: Lake Reginaldo Christophori , Salura Antariksa, Purnama
Published: January 2022

The widespread tendency to combine vernacular with modern architecture has led to the need for an in-depth understanding of the concepts that underlie the form of vernacular architecture. Unfortunately, there has been no systematic and rigorous research method aimed explicitly at reading the architecture of vernacular settlements that do not have written data on local traditions and culture. This study puts forward the theoretical-methodological steps to read the meaning of architectural patterns in the context of vernacular settlements by elaborating Levi-Strauss' structural analysis of myths with Salura and Alexander architectural theory. This study resulted in structuralist-inductivist steps to describe, analyse, and interpret vernacular architecture. The methodological framework consists as three significant parts: Firstly, to describe the activity and form of vernacular architecture in-depth based on the anatomical scope and architectural composition-properties. Secondly, to explore the surface structure of local myths, activities, and architectural form. Thirdly, to disclose the deep structure that underlies the relationship between local myths - activities - architectural form. These steps can be applied to read the meaning of vernacular settlements with no written sources on cultural traditions. Thus, this research contributes to the development of the theory and methodology of architectural scholarship. This research also acts as a source of knowledge for architectural practitioners and a significant input for the survival strategies of vernacular architecture.

Authors: Neskovic Isidora , Maletin Aleksandra , Brakoc Jelena , Petrovic Bojan , Vujkov Sanja , Veljovic Tanja
Published: January 2022

Introduction/Objective. Contemporary tendencies suggest that probiotics can significantly reduce the prevalence of caries in children, so it can be considered that they have a positive effect on general and oral health. Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG (LGG) is a probiotic culture of particular importance in preventive dentistry. The aim was to assess the effects of consumption of probiotic strain Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG on the dental plaque accumulation in children with mixed dentition. Methods. Research included 90 children with mixed dentition (5?12 years old). The first study group consumed 200 ml of Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG-enriched yogurt (B-Activ LGG, Dukat) daily for a period of 14 days, while the remaining 30 formed the second study group who consumed 200 ml of yogurt (Jogurt 1.5% milk fat, Imlek) with manually added powder from probiotic capsule (Wayaforte LGG capsule, Medis) daily for 14 days. The control group consisted of 30 children who had regular diet during examination period. Silness?Loe plaque index and saliva pH (pH-Fix-0-14, Macherey-Nagel) were determined at baseline and also upon intervention completion. Results. An increase in pH values was observed in both study groups. In general sample, there is a significant decrease of mean plaque index values (p < 0.001). Both study groups had significant decrease of mean plaque index values on the baseline and after 14 days consumption of yogurt. In the control group the number of subjects with decrease plaque index values did not correlate and no association was found. Conclusion. Consistent consumption of LGG culture-enriched yogurt inhibits dental film accumulation and promotes saliva pH increase in children with mixed dentition.
News at the Bell and a Level Playing Field
Authors: Hu Danqi , Stephan Andrew
Published: January 2022

We provide initial evidence that stock exchange procedures around closing auctions advantage speed traders at the expense of auction participants. We show that, on Nasdaq and NYSE Arca, 4:00 pm earnings releases result in informed trading in the continuous regular-hour session in the short window between 4:00 pm and the closing auction; this trading subsequently moves closing prices in the direction of the earnings news. The ability of speed traders to submit 4:00-pm-news orders to the auction through the continuous session earns them up to 1.5 percent profit and creates an unlevel playing field because most auction participants are not allowed to cancel their orders. When stock exchanges recommended that firms delay disclosures until after the market closes, those with higher institutional ownership were more likely to voluntarily do so. Our study has implications regarding the timing of information releases and the design of the closing process.
Anesthesia for Laparoscopic Surgery: Anesthetic Management and Complications
Authors: Bittner Edward A. , Cao Shiliang Alice
Published: January 2022

Laparoscopic surgery results in physiologic changes that encompass multiple organ systems, with respiratory, cardiovascular and neurologic and splanchnic effects. Insufflation of the peritoneum results in reduced lung volumes, atelectasis, and endobronchial migration of the endotracheal tube. Pneumoperitoneum can result in changes to venous return, cardiac output and blood pressure. Hypercapnia due to carbon dioxide gas used in insufflation can reduce cerebral perfusion pressure. Complications during laparoscopic surgery often occur during port placement and creation of the pneumoperitoneum. Problems include injury to blood vessels during trocar entry, vascular injury in the pneumoperitoneum with limited surgical access, severe bradycardia and arrhythmias due to vagal stimulation from peritoneal stretching, subcutaneous emphysema, pneumothorax, gas embolism, and complications associated with steep Trendelenburg positioning. A thorough understanding of the physiologic changes associated with laparoscopic procedures and recognition of potential complications will facilitate in optimal patient care.

OBJECTIVE

To assess the prevalence of high diabetes distress and associated factors in the Treatment Options for Type 2 Diabetes in Adolescents and Youth (TODAY2) study cohort of young adults with youth-onset type 2 diabetes.

RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS

Participants completed the Diabetes Distress Scale (DDS) at end-of-study visits. Factors examined for association with high distress were demographic (sex, race/ethnicity, age, education, income), medical (HbA1c, BMI, complications), psychological (depressive and anxiety symptoms), and social (number in household, offspring, health care coverage, established with diabetes care provider). Univariate logistic regression identified factors associated with high distress that were controlled for in multivariate logistic regressions.

RESULTS

Of 438 participants, 66% were female (mean age 26.8 years, 18% non-Hispanic White, 37% non-Hispanic Black, 38% Hispanic). High distress (DDS ≥2) was reported by 105 (24%) participants. Subscales identified 40% with high regimen distress and 29.7% with high emotional burden. A greater percentage of those with high distress were female (P = 0.002), diagnosed with hypertension (P = 0.037) and retinopathy (P = 0.005), treated with insulin, had higher HbA1c, and had moderate to severe depressive and anxiety symptoms (all P < 0.001). In multivariate analyses, female sex (P < 0.001), HbA1c (P < 0.001), anxiety symptoms (P = 0.036), and lack of health care coverage (P = 0.019) were associated with high distress, after controlling for potential confounders. Moderate to severe depressive symptoms were associated with high regimen distress (P = 0.018) and emotional burden (P < 0.001); insulin treatment was associated with high emotional burden (P = 0.027).

CONCLUSIONS

Future research should identify modifiable factors associated with high diabetes distress in young adults with youth-onset type 2 diabetes that may inform distress interventions with this medically vulnerable group.

Increased failure rates after the introduction of the TFNA proximal femoral nail for trochanteric fractures: implant related or learning curve effect?
Authors: Schmitz Peter P , Hannink Gerjon , Reijmer Joey , Somford Matthijs P , Van Susante Job L C
Published: January 2022

Background and purpose — Trochanteric fractures are often treated using intramedullary fixation. In our institution, the TFN-Advanced Proximal Femoral Nailing System (TFNA) was introduced as replacement for the Gamma Trochanteric Nail (GTN3) for the treatment of these fractures as a result of a hospital-driven change of trauma implant supplier. We compared trochanteric fracture fixation failure rate between these 2 intramedullary nails.
Patients and methods — All trochanteric fractures treated surgically from 2011 to 2019 were retrospectively reviewed for fixation failure. From 2016 only the TFNA was used. Fixation failure was defined as implant cut-out, implant breakage, non-union, malpositioning of the screw/blade requiring reoperation, new fracture around the nail, or miscellaneous. Propensity score matching was used to balance distribution of covariates and to compare failure rates between TFNA and GTN3 groups. Learning curve analyseswere performed.
Results — After exclusion, 797 GTN3s (779 patients) and 542 (536 patients) TFNAs were available for analysis. A higher risk of fixation failure was found in the TFNA group (14%) compared with the GTN3 group (7.0%) (hazard ratio [HR] 2.0, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.2–3.5). This was mainly attributed to a higher risk of cut-out (HR 2.2; CI 0.9–5.7), malpositioning (HR 4.7; CI 0.7–34), and new fracturearound the nail (HR 4.0; CI 1.0–16). Learning curve analyses indicated no clear learning curve effect.
Interpretation — Failure of fixation increased after a switch from the GTN3 to the TFNA proximal femoral nail for the treatment of trochanteric fractures. Cut-out and malpositioning of the calcar screw or blade appeared to be the most dominant failure mechanisms. Modifications in implant design may have played a role in this increased risk of failure of fixation. In our institution a new implant device was introduced without solid clinical evidence behind it. This study may help to underline the need for medical doctors with acritical and scientific background to be involved in implant choices.

Published: January 2022

Here we aimed to analyse the prevalence, clinical  course, and current approaches to the prevention and treatment of open globe injury in children as well as its complications: hyphema, retinal detachment, traumatic uveitis, and endophthalmitis. Currently, children are responsible for the 10-15% of open globe injuries. In developed countries, open globe injury is the leading cause of monocular blindness in children. Open globe injury mainly affects boys (60−70% cases), yet severe injuries are rare, and closed globe injury is the most common type of eye injury. Most injuries are accidental and occur at home in daily life (50−60%), outdoors (20−35%), at school (1−5%), or while playing sports (1−3%). Open globe injury most often affects cornea and is associated with a high risk of early and late complications and poor outcomes. Wearing of protective glasses during sports and active recreation is recognised as an efficient tool for primary prevention of open globe injury in children. The main problems in prevention of complications of open globe injury are the lack of specialised care in low-income countries and the limited awareness of parents.
Epidemiological features of acute respiratory infections in dentists
Authors: Ivanov D. Yu. , Drozdova O. M.
Published: January 2022

Aim.To study the incidence of acute respiratory infections (ARI) in medical staff of dental clinics.

Materials and Methods.We performed a descriptive, retrospective epidemiological study of ARI incidence by means of conducting an anonymous survey of 1,081 dentistry practitioners (358 in specialised dental clinics and 723 employees of polyclinics) in Kemerovo (2020). ARI included COVID-19, community-acquired pneumonia, and other common respiratory viral infections. The questionnaire included 12 questions about ARI, age, gender, working experience, and position.

Results.The incidence of ARI in dentistry practitioners in specialised dental clinics was 2.6-fold higher as compared with those working in polyclinics [379.52 per 1,000 (95% CI = 327.10-434.11) and 146.19 per 1,000 (95% CI = 120.56-174.93), respectively, p = 0,00001], regardless of age. Prolonged and close contact with the patients along with an intensive use of aerosol-generating technologies were associated with a 2.3-fold times higher incidence of ARI in dental therapists in comparison with dental surgeons. Female dentists suffered from ARI 1.8-fold more frequently than males [410.91 per 1,000 (95% CI = 352,18-471,58) and 228.07 per 1,000 (95% CI = 127.40-358.36), p = 0,01] but most women worked as dental therapists that could confound such association. ARI incidence was not associated with age, work experience, and position (p = 0.22).

Conclusion.Dentistry practitioners working in specialised clinics more frequently experienced ARI than those working in polyclinics. Dental therapists were at higher risk of ARI in comparison with dental surgeons, potentially due to the active use of aerosol generating technologies and prolonged close contact with the patients during treatment. Other factors were not among the major determinants of ARI incidence in dentistry practitioners.

Authors: Heryansyah Despan , Agustian Tomi , Kalsum Afif Ummi
Published: January 2022

The implementation and institutionalization of democracy with the absence of substantial democratization in the lower level of community does necessarily cause a problem. What it has been becoming a culture and being embraced by people for hundred or even thousand years, would be difficult to be transformed, even though its canalization is in the form of constitution. It may work in the conceptual level yet it may find obstacles in the implementation one. This condition influences the implementation of Village Constitution. The village democracy institutionalization is the focus of this study that covers three forms, they are: the election of village head, the village head election disputes, and term of office of village head. The research method of this study is normative-juridical. The writer initially studied the juridical provisions concerning the three main problems above, and then analyzed the implementation problems in the field. The result of this research showed that the direct election of village heads, village head election disputes done by the regional head, and term of office of the village head office for six (6) years in three periods as it is written on Laws Number. 6 of 2014, causes many problems theoretically as well as philosophically.  The result of this study is described descriptively and analytically in the analysis part

This study aims to analyze economic efficiency and the factors that influence the performance of coconut sugar SMEs in Cilongok District, Banyumas Regency. This study uses primary data obtained through interviews with 162 respondents. By using Benefit-Cost Ratio analysis and multiple regression, this study finds that the coconut sugar business in Cilongok District, Banyumas Regency is not yet efficient and the coconut sugar business performance is positively influenced by financial capital. While social capital and human capital do not affect it. This research implies the need for continuous efforts from all stakeholders to provide business assistance and certainty in product marketing so that product prices become more stable. In addition, it is also necessary to optimize the potential of social and human capital to strengthen the role of financial capital in improving business performance. This can be done through the institutionalization of social capital and optimizing the role of the village government in facilitating cooperation with various parties.

Published: January 2022

For ages, pure sugars or edible crops have produced lactic acid. However, a major concern on lactic acid production lies in the cost of the raw materials used. Thus, an alternative to overcome this situation is urgently needed. Characterization of banana peels shows that it contains promising sugar that can be utilized for lactic acid production, which are xylose (0.774 g/L), glucose (0.756 g/L) and fructose (0.532 g/L). Thus, this study aims to screen the potential of banana peel as a substrate by using Rhizopus oryzae through batch fermentation for lactic acid production, as R. oryzae can synthesize lactic acid in low nutrient requirements. Two-level factorial analysis was designed to screen the effects of moisture content (60% and 80%), temperature (27 °C and 40 °C), pH (4.5 and 6.5) and inoculum size (1x104 spores/mL and 1x108 spores/g) on the lactic acid production. Based on the Two-level factorial (2LF) analysis, the highest lactic acid production of 0.0813 g/L was detected at 80 % moisture content, pH 4.5, the temperature of 27 °C and inoculum size of 1x104 spores/g. The findings show that most of the conditions have a significant difference between each other (p<0.05). Therefore, the fermentation of banana peels by R. oryzae could be a promising method to produce a lactic acid concentration.

Authors: Azmi Adiez Sapura , Amini Mohammad Humayoon , Nor Azman Muhammad Farhan Syakir , Salim Fatimah , Jawad Ali
Published: January 2022

Erythrina fusca Lour. (family Fabaceae) is a flowering tree that is locally known as ‘chengkering’. The plant is traditionally used in treatment of some symptoms related to bacterial infections such as wound infections, inflammations, and skin itching. This work reports for the first time in vitro antibacterial screening of the E. fusca Lour. methanolic leaf extract against some common Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria such as Klebsiella pneumonia, Proteus vulgaris, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Bacillus cereus, Bacillus subtilis, and Staphylococcus aureus. The in vitro antibacterial assay was carried out using agar   diffusion method with the extract concentration of 3 mg/well and vancomycin 30 µg/well as the positive control. It was found that the extract exhibits antibacterial effects in range of 10.5 – 14 mm of zone of inhibition (ZOI) against all tested bacteria except for K. pneumoniae. P. aeruginosa showing ZOI of 14 mm was the most sensitive bacterium while P. vulgaris (ZOI of 10.5 mm) was the least sensitive strain to the extract. Based on the preliminary phytochemical screening of using standard qualitative phytochemical tests, this species contains significant amount of alkaloids, flavonoids, terpenoids, and tannins, which might contribute to the antibacterial activity of the extract. Both antibacterial potential and presence of various phytochemicals in the extract could support the traditional uses of E. fusca  , and the obtained results would serve as a basis for further exploration of antibacterial properties of the plant’s leaves.

Job Satisfaction of Disabled and Non-disabled Employees
Authors: Suk KwanHo , Yun SeJeong
Published: January 2022

Despite increasing interest among researchers in the job satisfaction of disabled employees, surprisingly little attention has been directed to the difference in job satisfaction between disabled and non-disabled employees in Korea. This research intends to understand the levels of job satisfaction between employees with and without disability. Another important goal of the current research is to understand which job characteristics can explain the difference in job satisfaction between disabled and non-disabled employees. This paper analyzed Korean Labor and Income Panel Study (KLIPS) data collected in 2018. The result showed that disabled paid workers’ job satisfaction was lower than that of non-disabled workers. Mediation tests indicated that the difference in job satisfaction can be explained by several job properties such as lower monthly income, fewer fringe benefits, mismatch between job and skill, and greater proportion of part-time workers of disabled (vs. non-disabled) employees.

Authors: Cho JiYeon , Tak Jinkook
Published: January 2022

The purpose of this study is to search for variables that indicate the differences between the groups, occupation change group, same occupation turnover group, no turnover group. As a variable representing differences, it was classified into psychological variables, job-related variables, and career-related variables to investigate which characteristic variables represent differences between the occupation change group and other groups. For the study, a survey was conducted on male and female occupational workers in the early stage of their careers, divided into three groups according to the difference in career pursuit: occupation change group, same occupation turnover group, no turnover group, and data were collected from 1,002 people except for insincere responses. The results obtained through this study are as follows. First, the variables that differed between the occupation change group and no turnover group are as follows. For psychological variables, openness to experience, extroversion, growth needs, risk-taking tendency, and career-related variables were derived from protein career orientation and occupational identity. Second, the variables that differed between the occupation change group and the same occupation turnover group are as follows. The psychological variables were extroversion and risk-taking, and career-related variables were protein career orientation. Therefore, it is necessary to consider the protean career orientation, which is the value that he or she individuals pursues with the initiative in extroversion, risk sensitivity, and career when changing occupation. Based on the above results, the significance, limitations and suggestions of this study were discussed.
Detached Concern
Authors: Park HyungIn , Nam JiSun
Published: January 2022

This study attempted to apply the concept of detached concern, an attitude that service workers may have towards customers, to Korean samples. In Study 1, the original detached concern scale was translated into Korean and then back-translated for comparison and refinement. The Korean detached concern scale was then validated with a sample of 143 full-time, overage Korean workers using three facets of burnout as the criteria. The results of confirmatory factor analyses indicated that detachment and concern were two independent facets. Also, the response surface graph showed that professional inefficacy significantly decreased when detachment and concern matched at high levels rather than at low levels. In Study 2, we examined whether detached concern would predict the three facets of work engagement after a month with 374 Korean customer service workers using the scale validated in Study 1. We also hypothesized that job control would weaken the relationships. All variables were measured twice with a one-month interval. Polynomial regressions revealed that detachment and concern measured at Time 1 jointly had significant effects on all facets of work engagement measured at Time 2. Also, the moderating effects of job control were observed but different for all three facets. These results suggest that detached concern may play an important role in the psychological well-being of emotional labor workers. Based on these findings, academic and practical implications were discussed along with suggestions for future research.
Association Between a Global Competency and Cross-cultural Adaptation
Authors: Kim YoungShik , Kang SeungHye , Roh SangChoong
Published: January 2022

This study tried to verify how the global competency and personality characteristics of expatriates have an effect on the expatriate's work engagement and cross-cultural adaptation in a reality where the role and job performance of overseas expatriates is growing in importance. In addition, in the relationship between global competency and personality traits on cross-cultural adaptation through work engagement, this study tried to examine how career vision acts as a moderated moderated-mediation effect. The specific hypothesis tested the mediation effect of work engagement in the relationship between global competency and cross-cultural adaptation, and whether there is a moderated-mediation effect through the interaction between conscientiousness and career vision in such mediating model. In order to achieve the purpose of this study, a survey was conducted on Korean expatriates, and the final data of 164 people were analyzed. As a result, the mediation effect of global competency increasing cross-cultural adaptation through work engagement was verified. When the career vision and the conscientiousness were high, it was found that expatriates with high global competency increased their work engagement and had a positive effect on cross-cultural adaptation. However, when the career vision was low and conscientiousness was high, it was found that expatriates with high global competency had relatively low work engagement and had a negative effect on cross-cultural adaptation. Based on these results, the meaning, implications, limitations, and future research of the study were discussed.

Ethnomethodology is the study of everyday practices carried out by members of society in everyday life. Actors are seen to do their everyday life through various kinds of ingenious practices. Ethnomethodology develops in various ways. The two main types are institutional studies and conversational analysis. Ethnomethodology has a different perspective from structural and interactionist theories in viewing social reality. As explained above, structural theory sees the most significant picture of human social life in the external forces that compel the individual. Therefore, to understand social behavior, an understanding of structural determination in human life must be developed. Meanwhile, for interactionists, actors (individuals) are viewed as priority objects. So, this theory builds a comprehension by first understanding individual social actions.

La pandemia de la COVID-19 ha tenido un impacto disruptivo en las dinámicas de la movilidad internacional, afectando de forma particularmente severa a los refugiados. Este artículo analiza el impacto de la crisis sanitaria en la protección internacional, deteniéndose en sus efectos sobre distintas fases del proceso: el acceso al territorio, el acceso al procedimiento, así como la acogida y sus condiciones. A través de un análisis comparado que incorpora las dinámicas observadas en distintas geografías, el artículo profundiza en los efectos de la pandemia en la consolidación de un nuevo régimen global de asilo que hunde sus raíces en las transformaciones observadas desde los años noventa del siglo pasado. Se sostiene que la pandemia ha actuado como un acelerador de algunas de las tendencias observadas que marcan una deriva aún más exclusionista y restrictiva en este régimen global de (des)protección.

Published: January 2022

Quality management in the library is related to quality control of the library's work to meet user expectations and contributes to the continued success of the organization. However, quality control is lacking and not be the main focus in many libraries. This paper aims to explain how quality management improves work results in libraries. The research method used in this paper is qualitative research using a case study method. We conduct research in Library X that already underwent quality control in book processing activities. The data were collected through observation, and interviews for book processing activities and its quality control data during 2018-2020. The data was then analyzed document analysis. The study found that Library X could perform better by improving the quality of book processing and fixing the error just before they put the book on its shelves. Quality control gives a comprehensive evaluation in Library X either for humans, processes, and systems of book processing activities that help Library X conduct its duty to provide their user needs and expectations. Quality control and quality management also help Library X describe the library working atmosphere and can be used for giving motivation to all librarians and staff to give better service and performance for the end-users.

Aim of the study is to assess the relationship between screen time, physical activity and physical fitness among girls 6–7 years-old.

21,528 girls aged 6 and 7 from Poland were assessed in terms of physical fitness. Arm strength, abdominal strength and explosive strength of the lower limbs were measured using the EUROFIT test. Basic somatic features were measured and BMI and WHtR indices were calculated. Spontaneous and organized physical activities as well screen time were assessed by the parents utilizing a questionnaire. The multiple logistic regression method was used to evaluate the influence of screen time and spontaneous physical activity on various components of physical fitness.

Physically active (PA) girls (≥1h/day) and those who participated in additional physical activities (APA) during the week had significantly higher height, weight, and BMI (p<0.001), but not WHtR. They had a higher level of flexibility, explosive strength of the lower limbs and arm strength (p<0.001). With an increase in screen time, the BMI, WHtR increased significantly and explosive strength of the lower limbs, abdominal strength and arm strength were lower. Regression analysis showed that more frequent participation in extracurricular activities increased the values of BMI and WHtR in quartile 4 (Q4), and strength components: Q2–Q4 (p<0.05). Spontaneous physical activity was positively related to the values of BMI, WHtR (both: Q4; p<0.05), explosive force of lower limbs (Q3–Q4; p=0.001), and negatively related to arm strength (Q2; p=0.001). Screen time (≥2hrs/day) increased odds for higher BMI values (p<0.05). Each screen time category decreased the odds of achieving abdominal muscle strength related to the quartiles: Q2–Q4 (p<0.05), arm strength (Q4: p<0.05). ST (1 <2hrs/day) decreased arm strength (Q3; p= 0.045). Our research has shown that screen time-related sedentary behavior and physical activity affect overweight and obesity indices (especially BMI) and strength abilities. The observed associations more often affected girls with a higher level of fitness The results observed in girls aged 6-7 indicate a need for early intervention aimed at limiting time spent watching TV and computer use, as well as to encourage both spontaneous and organized physical activities.
Bayesian Online Change Point Detection in Finance
Authors: Habibi Reza
Published: January 2022

It is quite common that the structure of a time series changes abruptly. Identifying these change points and describing the model structure in the segments between these change points is an important task in financial time series analysis. Change point detection is the identification of abrupt changes in the generative parameters of sequential data. In application areas such as finance, online rather than offline detection of change points in time series is mostly required, due to their use in predictive tasks, possibly embedded in automatic trading systems. However, the complex structure of the data generation processes makes this a challenging endeavor. This paper is concerned with online change point detection in financial time series using the Bayesian setting. To this end, the Bayesian posterior probability of change at a specific time is proposed and some procedures are presented for selecting the priors and estimation of parameters. Applications in simulated financial time series are given. Finally, conclusions are proposed.
Measuring The Impact of an Administrative Fine on a Company And Its Future Survival: a Case Study From The Czech Republic
Authors: Krabec Tomas , Čižinska Romana
Published: January 2022

An administrative fine is a monetary penalty that may be imposed by a supervisory authoritity as an administrative punishment. Such a fine adversely interferes in the cash flow generation of the company in question. The fine can be described as an investment carrying opportunity costs with no economic returns. However, according to the judgment of the Constitutional Court of the Czech Republic Pl. ÚS 3/02 of 13 August 2002 it is submitted that the fine cannot be imposed in such an amount that would ultimately be liquidating for the sanctioned entrepreneur. The assessment of whether the specific amount of the fine imposed represents such an intensive interference with the entrepreneur's property that his business activity becomes pointless (i.e., in the long run only for the payment of a fine) is elaborated in this article. Based on a case study from the Czech Republic, this article deals with an example of a suitable methodological procedure, on the basis of which it is possible to evaluate the impact of a specific amount of fine imposed on the property of a sanctioned entrepreneur and assess ex ante whether (i) continuity of his business will be interrupted in the future, i.e., when, as a result of the payment of the fine, he eventually goes bankrupt in the form of insolvency or over-indebtedness and / or (ii) his business activity will only serve to pay the fine and thus become "pointless". The presented economic narrative and methodology are relevant for policy makers and, particularly, for supervisory authorities imposing the fines or assessing the requests for remission.
Individual Pension Products Offered by Banks in Poland - a Multidimensional Comparative Analysis
Authors: Rutecka-Góra Joanna
Published: January 2022

The supplementary old-age pension system in Poland consists of group and individual plans. This research covers the latter, namely the individual retirement accounts and individual retirement security accounts that were introduced in 2004 and 2012 respectively. The main aim of the paper is to conduct a multidimensional comparative analysis of bank retirement products including the linguistic complexity of documents creating the retirement contracts offered to individuals by banks, and the costliness and profitability of such products in the period 2012-2019. Moreover, it identifies the dependencies between the linguistic and economic traits of retirement contracts offered by banks. The correlation analysis conducted using the Spearman’s rank correlation coefficient showed that the more readable a document of a bank contract is, the higher the interest rate is and the higher the cancellation fees. The results of the study are relevant for both financial institutions and public bodies as they show the key characteristics that may influence the demand for individual retirement products in Poland and may serve as either a stimulator or a barrier in the development of supplementary old-age pension provision.
