Published: October 2024

Aim: This paper examines the predictors of all-cause mortality among hospitalized HIV-positive patients in Kazakhstan.

Material and methods: The study uses baseline data from patient hospital discharge records derived from the Unified Electronic Healthcare System of Kazakhstan (UNEHS) between 2014 and 2019. Artificial intelligence technology was utilized to extract data from the discharge records. Patients were included based on their first hospitalization, and they were subsequently monitored until their discharge or occurrence of death.

Results: The study revealed that females had a 2.06-fold higher risk of all-cause mortality compared to males. After adjustments in the Cox proportional hazard model, age, intravenous drug use (IDU), and anemia were observed as independent predictors of mortality within the patient cohort.

Conclusions:  Findings of this study emphasize the need to enhance efforts to prevent late HIV diagnosis by improving access to testing and treatment for those affected, and to strengthen potential for developing risk factors reduction strategies.

Published: October 2024

This study aims to determine the role of religiosity in moderating the influence of fake news variables, the personality of Muslim customers, and anger towards the hateful behavior of Muslim consumers towards halal product brands. Primary data collection was carried out by purposive sampling with a total sample of 340 response questionnaires collected from consumers of fast food restaurant outlets (Kentucky Fried Chicken, McDonald's, and Pizza Hut) domiciled in Purwokerto, Tegal, Yogyakarta, Surakarta, and Semarang. The relationship between fake news variables, Muslim customer personality, and anger towards hateful behavior towards brands were analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling from the Warp Partial Least Squares regression program package. Empirical research shows the influence of fake news, Muslim personality, and anger on brand hatred. The test results show that religiosity can be a moderating variable between fake news, Muslim personalities, and anger towards brand hate for halal products. Hatred about the brand can be suppressed if the company provides information quickly regarding the products offered, and this news can be quickly verified through social media; the information provided is straightforward to understand, and consumers are always optimistic and able to provide good perceptions so consumers do not feel they hate food and beverages and can ensure a halal product.
Transformation of value orientations of young people in a modern information and communication environment
Authors: Zvereva E.A. , Khvorova V.A.
Published: October 2024

The article is devoted to the transformation of youth values under the influence of the information and communication environment, the role of the media in the communicative processes of socialization and self-realization. The authors of the work emphasize the problem of the dual impact of the information and communication environment on the spiritual and moral formation of the digital generation: on the one hand, young people receive wide opportunities for self-development and self-realization, on the other, the scale of the negative influence of the media significantly distorts the traditional universal values that make up the spiritual basis of the individual. The relevance of the research is determined by the need to study new ways of translating the values of society and the integration of the individual as an active subject of socially significant communication, updating the understanding of the role of media communication in the dissemination of certain values and norms of behavior among young people. The paper presents the systematization of youth value groups in the context of the communicative practices of media consumption. The purpose of the study is to find optimal tools that allow young people to form a certain moral filter to neutralize the negative influence of the media. The research material is based on the application of an interdisciplinary approach to understanding the main characteristics of modern phenomena of the information and communication environment. The key research methods were in-depth interviews with experts, as well as a two-stage survey of 200 respondents aged 15 to 35 years. These results made it possible to prove the effectiveness of interactive co-authorship, multi-format and game implementation of broadcasting media content for the moral formation of a new generation.
Review of the monograph “Conflict of values in Internet communication: cognitiveand pragmalinguistic aspects” by E.N. Vasilenko (Mogilev, Mogilev state A. Kuleshov university publ., 2022, 236 p.)
Authors: Shevtsova A.K.
Published: October 2024

The reviewed monograph by E.N. Vasilenko examines the prerequisites and methods of linguistic expression of the intergroup conflict of values in online communication. The author's concept of intolerant discourse in general and hate speech as its immediate and most important verbal component is based on linguopragmatic studies by foreign and Russian linguists. The book offers a methodology and conceptual apparatus for describing the model of intolerant discourse as a unity of its cognitive-thematic, communicative-pragmatic and linguistic components. The study is based on the comments of Belarusian Internet users to news articles concerning the problems of vulnerable social groups.

Educação para a cooperação e desenvolvimento regional: um estudo em organizações paranaenses
Authors: Biscaro Chrystian , Luzio-dos-Santos Luis Miguel
Published: October 2024

O movimento cooperativo se apresenta de modo bastante heterogêneo, repleto de manifestações, algumas complementares e outras antagônicas. Esse fato levou ao objetivo deste estudo: compreender como diferentes modelos cooperativos entendem e vivenciam o quinto princípio internacional do cooperativismo – educação, formação e informação – em organizações cooperativas paranaenses. Foram analisados três modelos de cooperativismo atuantes no Paraná, aqui definidos por Concêntrico, Popular e Solidário. A coleta de dados ocorreu por meio de entrevistas semiestruturadas e pesquisa documental. A análise dos dados foi baseada no método de análise de conteúdo. Dentre os resultados, destaca-se que o compromisso com as causas sociais e o desenvolvimento de regiões e sujeitos novos são vistos com maior frequência nas cooperativas com características mais solidárias e populares. A cooperativa de maior porte prioriza ações voltadas ao nível técnico de capacitação de mão de obra, sem maior compromisso com o desenvolvimento da cultura da cooperação entre seus membros.

Family farm and family business: Distinction and transition between concepts
Authors: Rosas-Tamayo Itzel , Islas-Moreno Asael
Published: October 2024

Objective: Explore the conceptual limits between the family farming unit and the agricultural family business to identify the elements that determine the transition from one figure to another. Methodology: The distinctive elements between both concepts were determined from the most relevant definitions reported in the literature. Subsequently, the transition from a family farming unit to an agricultural family business was illustrated based on the case study of an enterprise dedicated to the production and collection of barley in Hidalgo, Mexico. Results: Seven distinctive elements were identified between the family farming unit and the agricultural family business. Two elements (the scale of production and productive diversification) drive the transition, three are modified consequently (the source of labor, the priority destination of productive activity, and the strength of the link with agricultural land), and the remaining two are carried out infrequently (assignment of a non-family member as main head and disengagement of family members from community life). Limitations: The findings of the study lack statistical representativeness as they come from a case study. Conclusions: The seven distinctive elements between a family farming unit and an agricultural family business can be used to study the phenomenon of entrepreneurship around agriculture and to typify agricultural units to design differentiated strategies for political intervention.

Authors: Domínguez-Monte José Antonio , Cenizo-Benjumea José Manuel , Gálvez-González Javier , Otero-Saborido Fernando Manuel
Published: October 2024

Objective: The aim of this study was to design and validate a university education PoT instrument.
 
Theoretical Framework: It has become a priority to implement Peer Observation of Teaching (PoT) in the domain of higher education. There are different PoT approaches, a social credentialism model and a feedback-oriented approach.
 
Method: The Higher Education-PoT (HE-PoT) tool was designed ad hoc following observational methodology principles. The original items were drawn from a systematic review of  PoT tools by Otero-Saborido et al. (2024). The procedure consisted of two phases: in the first qualitative phase, items from the tool were selected and circulated within a group of experts; in the second quantitative phase, the items were quantified using the Aiken coefficient
 
Results and Discussion: It was initially based on a systematic review of PoT tools and subsequently subjected to 4 rounds of revisions by Physical Education and Sports Science teaching experts. The final tool consisted of a total of 33 descriptive categories divided into 11 items. The validity of all item contents was calculated using Aiken's coefficient (value equal to 0.75 or above, except for 2 items which scored 0.66) and all categories obtained values above 0.75. A total of 25 of the 33 categories presented values over 0.90.
 
Research Implications: Future works should test the tool reliability so that it can be used to improve teaching following collaborative approaches.
 
Originality/Value: Validated PoT tools are generally lacking in university education. The designed tool includes a number of items that contribute to a sustainable observation for teachers.

COGNITIVE ASPECTS OF THE COMMUNICATION CHAIN "VISUAL STIMULUS"-"VERBAL RETELLING" ON THE EXAMPLE OF "THE FILM ABOUT PEARS" BY W. CHAFE
Authors:   Novosibirsk State Pedagogical University, Adalatova E.Yu. , Vergunov E.G. ,   Scientific Research Institute of Neurosciences and Medicine, Nikolaeva E.I. ,   Herzen State Pedagogical University of Russia

Perception of an event is the daily activity of the human brain, which allows us to see the world not just as separate unrelated phenomena, but as some continuous sequence of interconnected actions of specific characters. Attempts to analyze the structure of perception of an event have been made since 1929. and with varying intensity they continued and continue until our time. The complexity of the phenomenon itself suggests the need for multimodal integration of individual elements of perception to be represented in the brain and requires the creation of tools for its analysis. In 1975, W. Chafe and his colleagues created a film design, the plot of which allowed researchers in a variety of directions to study this complex phenomenon. The film became universal material for different groups of scientists, and in domestic research it was called “The Pear Stories”. The goal of this work was to create a coding system that makes it possible to combine film frames with the subjects’ retelling of them, and by pairwise comparison of these encoded elements to create bicomponent models for describing the cognitive processes underlying the retelling. It turned out that in the Stimulus-Storyteller communication chain the semantic categories “heroes” and “infrastructure” are most consistently transmitted. It has been proven that the ratio of a large volume of text with a low interpretive task is a condition for the most complete transfer of content. It was discovered that in the process of retelling, the description of plot scenes is lost to a greater extent compared to the description of background scenes.
DESIGNING THE EDUCATIONAL PROCESS BASED ON THE STUDENT'S PSYCHOTYPE
Authors:   Academy of the Federal Security Service of the Russian Federation, Volkov M.A. , Petrov V.S. ,   Academy of the Federal Security Service of the Russian Federation
Published: October 2024

Modern teaching methods introduced into the educational process do not always take into account the peculiarities of students' thinking. This omission may negatively affect the productivity of the methods used. The article presents possible approaches to increasing the effectiveness of training, taking into account the psychotypes of students at a departmental university. In this regard, of particular interest is the definition of the concept of “psychotype” of a person, on which the authors of the article rely when describing a generalized model of individual behavior. The authors consider the main stages of designing the educational process for engineering educational programs, and use the theory of C. Jung and the main provisions of the theory of socionics and Myers-Briggs typology as the basis for their research. At the same time, increasing the reliability of the research is achieved through questioning students using the standard MBTI tool, as well as using a technique for determining one’s own psychotype based on studying one’s preferences. The use of methods for analyzing the psychotypes of students and further taking into account the identified characteristics when planning the educational process and independent work at a departmental university, as well as following these recommendations, will allow one to achieve better learning results and increase the accessibility of perceived information.
Gamifying Cybersecurity Education: A CTF-based Approach to Engaging Students in Software Security Laboratories
Authors: Zouahi Hafidh
Published: October 2024

CTF (Capture the Flag) competitions are increasingly being used in information technology and software engineering education to teach students about secure coding best practices. This paper presents an approach to improve engagement of software engineering students during software security laboratory assessments by using CTF-style challenges that are fun to solve and reflect modern security threats. The approach involves gamifying laboratory exercises by providing CTF-like challenges that are not only enjoyable but also reflect real-world security vulnerabilities. Additionally, students are given a single virtual machine bundled with everything needed for the entire semester, eliminating unnecessary logistic problems. Feedback from students confirms the effectiveness of this approach in reaching course objectives. Students were keen to learn more about the topic and showed greater interest in the laboratories. This approach provides a more dynamic and interactive learning experience that fosters critical thinking skills and encourages students to pursue careers in software security.
Characterizing Computer Aided Design Mastery: What differences exist between expert and novice users?
Authors: Hassan Elizabeth , Jamieson Kate , Mitchell Ariana , Wohl Greg
Published: October 2024

The goal of this work is to characterize “expert” student CAD use and examine whether differences from novices are related to factors such as gender, seniority, co-op experience, and spatial ability. Participants were recruited from a second-year mechanical engineering course and extra-curricular engineering technical teams. The groups were Novice (Year 2, not on a team, n=13), Junior (Year 2, on a team, n=7), Senior (Year 3+, on a team, n=12). Participants completed a spatial task (PSVT:R, Purdue Spatial Visualization Test) and a CAD task while being asked to describe their process (verbal protocol analysis). Groups were similar in gender composition. The spatial task (PSVT:R) performance was not related to gender, year of study, or use of CAD on co-op. Spatial performance was related to team participation. Two major differences in process were coded. One was references to past work. Seniors were more likely to reference co-op experience than Novices (p=0.03), Juniors were more likely to reference academic work compared to Seniors (p=0.04). The other significant difference was the method used for construction. Seniors were less likely to use a “cut away” approach to making their part than Novices (p=0.004) or Juniors (p=0.002). Seniors were more likely to trace geometry and extrude their part compared to Novices (p=0.004). The difference in referenced prior work presents an opportunity for instructors as many more students participate in co-op than in extra-curricular teams. This could be leveraged by encouraging students to contextualize learning from co-op or by creating industrially-relevant assignments. The difference in approach to creating the object suggests that CAD instructors could be introducing students to higher level tools earlier. This could be done through assignments that authentically demand more complicated geometries.
Identifying the foundation: Connecting codes of ethics, accreditation, values, and social justice to the engineering curriculum
Authors: Kirkscey Russell , Vale Julie , Howcroft Jennifer
Published: October 2024

Canadian Engineering Accreditation Board (CEAB) graduate attributes are at the foundation of engineering curricular change in Canada. While CEAB graduate attributes require an understanding of ethics, professionalism, and impact, outcomes explicitly associated with equity, diversity, inclusion, indigeneity (EDI-I) and social justice broadly construed are absent. At present, the CEAB ethics criteria imply that understanding and valuing the code of ethics adequately addresses the issue, which leaves a gap in guidance for educators and curriculum designers. This paper reports on a thematic analysis of the 12 Canadian engineering codes of ethics and associated guidelines to discover the values overtly addressed or implied in the documents. We then map these findings onto the values of EDI-I and social justice as outlined by engineering scholars, and we offer recommendations for using the results to guide engineering instructors who want to make appropriate curriculum modifications that will support the CEAB efforts to address these movements.
A Socio-Emotional Framework to Understand Engagement in Engineering Student Project-Teams
Authors: Kerr Victoria , Sheridan Patricia , Moore Emily
Published: October 2024

Project-based design courses typically involve self-managed teams whose goal is to develop solutions to open-ended engineering problems. Due to their collaborative nature, team-based design courses are largely effective only if students participate and are engaged with both individual and team level learning and tasks. Despite efforts to improve team effectiveness, low engagement persists as a critical issue in engineering student project-teams. In this work, we present a socio-emotional conceptual framework to better understand how team member interactions affect the engagement of team members within engineering-student project-teams over time. It is proposed that this framework will be used to investigate previously overlooked characteristics of a team's social climate (including task interdependence, intra-team trust, and psychological safety) which may affect student engagement in the engineering project-team context. It is anticipated that this framework will provide novel insight into the social climate of the team environment and its effects on student engagement. Through better understanding these phenomena, we will be able to design curriculum to leverage this understanding and improve student engagement at a course-wide level.
Increasing Student Awareness of Complex Problems Through Systems Thinking: How (Re)Framing Can Lead to Identifying the Core Problem
Authors: Rodrigues Renato , Bubbar Kush , Seniuk Cicek Jillian
Published: October 2024

Within global and interconnected societies, engineers need to embrace complexity and understand the importance of awareness of their choices in the problem definition process. In this practice paper, we propose a framework to increase students’ awareness of choices during problem definition, based on the integration of three frameworks: systems mapping, problem framing, and Cynefin framework. Through application of the frameworks students can identify important elements and interconnections within a system and frame the scenario around the core problem. We provide an example from an entrepreneurship course to illustrate how the proposed framework can increase awareness among engineering students and allow them to identify and respond to the core problem effectively. We conclude that this framework can help students broaden their understanding of complex systems and identify alternative core problems. This work also highlights the importance of recognizing that not all problems can be solved through engineering (technical) solutions.
Developing a Catalogue of Environmental Sustainability Tools to Inform Biomedical Engineering Design Education
Authors: Yu Melissa , Usprech Jenna , Harandi Negar , Newell Robyn , Kuo Calvin
Published: October 2024

Despite the negative impact that the environmental crisis can have on human health, the healthcare sector is a significant contributor of greenhouse gas emissions and air pollution. However, biomedical engineering design has primarily focused on human safety, with limited attention to environmental sustainability. To address this, we conducted a review of tools to support environmental sustainability analysis and proposed how we think they can support biomedical engineering design education. We conducted a literature search to identify available tools and categorized them according to the biomedical engineering design process taught at the University of British Columbia. We found that there was a lack of tools to support sustainability at early design stages, limiting student’s ability to take a proactive approach to sustainable design. Moving forward, we plan to use this review as a reference tool to guide curriculum improvements for biomedical engineering design courses to include a greater focus on environmental sustainability.

Published: October 2024

The Ritual of the Calling of an Engineer has been an important rite of passage for Canadian engineering graduates for almost 100 years. Many engineering students eagerly anticipate receiving their ring, and rightfully feel pride in their accomplishments. However, the Ritual is not a proper representation of the profession and maintains engineering's culture of objectivity, lack of agency, lack of transparency, and colonialism. The Retool the Ring group formed immediately following the CEEA-ACÉG 2022 conference to collaborate in advocacy work for making changes to the Ritual. In this paper, we outline our motivations and approaches to engaging in the work, present the outcomes, and reflect on the ongoing process of change, and the work that remains to be done. As engineering community members, we aim to bring engineers, educators, and other stakeholders into this conversation and offer an invitation for others to take up this call to action.

Published: October 2024

This paper focuses on a multi-disciplinary design thinking experiential education activity called BEST Startup Experience (BSE) which was designed and developed to engage students in a structured learning journey to create innovative solutions and develop a viable business aligned with real-world sustainability challenges around United Nation Sustainable Development Goals (UNSDGs). The focus on UN SDGs was aligned with the York Academic Plan around undertaking activities that matter - not necessarily ventures that make money. This paper aims to study the impact of embedding design thinking EE activities in post-secondary courses on students’ learning through a reflection survey. In summary, based on the findings of this study, participants reported collaboration, communication, problem-solving, and personal growth as their most significant takeaways. BSE participants agreed that this experience provided them the chance to utilize the engineering design knowledge they learn in the classroom to address real-world projects and to make a personal impact on sustainability issues, both locally and globally.
Innovative Assessment Strategies for Measuring Graduate Attribute Competencies
Authors: Turrin Sabrina , Poulin Katrina , Saxe Amanda , Khazaka Roni , Kanaan Marwan
Published: October 2024

Most assessment strategies used in engineering are traditional forms of assessment, such as written reports, assignments, and examinations. However, these traditional forms of assessment are not always the most accurate ways of measuring student learning. In this paper, a narrative literature review is conducted to identify innovative assessment strategies that have been used in other disciplines but are not common in engineering classrooms. Eight such assessment strategies were found, which were then mapped to their potential application in evaluating graduate attribute competencies. This paper can be used as a set of suggestions and ideas for engineering instructors looking to diversify their assessment methods while targeting graduate attributes.
STEM Student Perceptions of Problem-Solving Skill Development and The Importance of Memorization in Problem-Solving Courses
Authors: DeDecker Sarah , Vale Julie , Gordon Karen , Clemmer Ryan
Published: October 2024

Problem-solving (PS) is a fundamental skill developed through learning activities and assessments. This study investigated the impact of year of study and discipline on STEM undergraduate student perceptions of PS skill development and the importance of memorization in PS courses. A survey and focus groups were conducted with participants enrolled in biology, engineering, and physical sciences. A priori analysis for interpreting students’ responses was performed using a theoretical framework developed by Brookhart to understand the role of classroom assessment in motivating student effort and achievement. The results indicate STEM students have a perception shift in their motivation to learn and the importance of memorization as a learning approach. First year students identified being motivated by self-efficacy, while second/upper year students are motivated by task characteristics of PS assessments. Our results can inform instructors of how to integrate the use of memorization, motivational components, and drive student effort through assessments to help them succeed in PS learning environments.
A Starting Point for Building Awareness for Indigenous Ways of Knowing in Engineering Leadership, Sustainability, and Design
Authors: Ibrahim Nadine , Donald John , Atamanchuk Kathryn , Moresoli Christine
Published: October 2024

The authors of this paper are non-Indigenous educators who desire to introduce Indigenous Ways of Knowing into the engineering curriculum because they believe it can add value to the impact of engineering in society and positively influence approaches to sustainable engineering design. This is challenging as the authors do not have lived Indigenous experience nor deep foundational knowledge. This paper is a documentation and reflection on the authors’ learning journey and experiences in implementing Indigenous Ways of Knowing in learning resources and activities relating to engineering leadership, sustainability and design. The approach starts with the “work before the work” and describes various ways that Indigenous Knowledge was recognized and acknowledged. Outputs included an online learning resource, and virtual experiential learning workshops. The learning journey has increased our understanding of, and our ability to improve, the positive impact that Indigenous Ways of Knowing can have in the engineering curriculum.
Reflections on "Voices from the Heart" Workshop
Authors: Radebe Dimpho , Paul Robyn , Johnston Kim , Zhuang Kai
Published: October 2024

The work of education innovation is stressful, challenging, and at times isolating. Through the delivery of a workshop we developed, we create an intimate and brave space to explore our own well-being and thriving using the practices of intention setting, embodiment, and wisdom circles, and facilitate a basic understanding of the neurobiology behind stress, trauma, and learning. In this practice paper, we review the process and literature used to develop the workshop. We share lessons learned from delivering the workshop. These are highlighted to demonstrate the empirical value that this workshop, as a practice, brings to the engineering education community. Based on initial offerings of the workshop, the authors have observed that participants have found the workshop to be a beneficial process that enables them to connect more deeply to themselves and to others within the engineering education community.

La devoción de la Virgen del Sagrario de la Catedral de Toledo en Hispanoamérica. Difusión y culto durante la Edad Moderna a través de sus "verae effigiei"
Authors: Illescas Díaz Laura
Published: October 2024

The importance of verae effigiei in the religious and artistic sphere during the Modern Age was enormous and motivates us to scrutinize a fairly unknown case: the Virgen del Sagrario of Toledo Cathedral. Based on unpublished documentation preserved in the Archivo Capitular, and the analysis of several visual sources (canvases and engravings), this paper offers an account of how this cult spread in New Spain during the aforementioned period. Furthermore, we have been able to determine the impact of the inauguration in 1675 of the new throne, designed by Pedro de la Torre and Francisco Bautista and later realized by Virgilio Fanelli.

Published: October 2024

Monitorar a pressão intracraniana (PIC) permite otimizar o tratamento de pacientes com diversas afecções, já que a hipertensão intracraniana (HIC) pode causar isquemia. A aferição da PIC pode ser realizada de maneira invasiva, que é o método mais acurado, mas requer a introdução de um sensor no ventrículo ou parênquima, o que pode causar hemorragia e infecção. Existem ainda diversos métodos não invasivos, que aliados aos parâmetros clínicos, podem ser utilizados como alternativa para avaliar a PIC. O uso de cateter ventricular, epidural e microtransdutores são descritos na veterinária como métodos invasivos, porém, nenhum deles é considerado padrão ouro em pequenos animais, mas presume-se que o uso de microtransdutores intraparenquimatosos seja o mais preciso. Dentre os métodos não invasivos, a mensuração do diâmetro da bainha do nervo óptico (DBNO), ressonância magnética, ultrassonografia (US) com doppler transcraniano e elasticidade óssea intracraniana foram relatados. Em gatos, o DBNO foi mensurado por US transpalpebral em animais saudáveis e com HIC presumida e mostrou-se ser um método viável. A monitoração da PIC não é rotineiramente usada na medicina veterinária, mas poderia guiar e otimizar o tratamento em diversas afecções, portanto, objetivo desta revisão narrativa é descrever os métodos de monitoração da PIC em cães e gatos.

Залучення фінансово-інвестиційних ресурсів у фінтех сектор фінансової системи України
Authors:   Державний податковий університет, Бірюк Дмитро
Published: October 2024

У статті показано, що останніми роками стрімкий розвиток процесів цифровізації зумовив активне зростання інвестицій у фінансові технології насамперед у сектор Фінтех. Це сприяло активному розвитку фінансових систем країн світу та стимулювало економічний розвиток шляхом поширення платформних бізнес-моделей. Глобальний ринок Фінтех зазнав значних змін у 2023 році, зокрема через жорстку процентну політику центральних банків та війну в Україні. Загальні обсяги інвестицій у Фінтех-сектор знизилися до шестирічного мінімуму, проте в деяких сферах, таких як proptech (нерухомість), ESG-Фінтех (стале інвестування) та платежі, спостерігається зростання. В Україні ІТ-сектор, який має значну частку експорту, продовжує демонструвати стійкість та залучати інвестиції.

Будь-який вид підприємницької діяльності розвивається в умовах економічної, політичної та соціальної нестабільності, а кожній сфері господарювання притаманні, поряд із загальними, специфічні ризики. Туристичний бізнес завжди функціонує в умовах зовнішніх і внутрішніх загроз та невизначеності, що потребує дослідження ризиків, властивих туристичним підприємствам. У статті розглянуто особливості туристичних ризиків та природу виникнення ризиків сфери туризму; визначені класифікаційні ознаки ризиків туристичних підприємств, на базі яких виділені основні види ризиків, що виникають у процесі їх функціонування. У статті також сформульовано головні етапи процесу управління ризиками підприємств туристичної сфери та розглянуто способи впливу на ризик, які дозволяють підприємствам їх уникати або мінімізувати можливі загрози.
