Exploring how patients respond to GP recommendations for mental health treatment: an analysis of communication in primary care consultations
Authors: Ford Joseph , Thomas Felicity , Byng Richard , McCabe Rose 
Published: October 2019

BackgroundPatient take-up and adherence to antidepressants and talking therapy is low. However, little is known about how GPs recommend these treatments and whether patients accept them.AimTo examine how GPs recommend antidepressants and talking therapy, and how patients respond.Design & settingA total of 52 recorded primary care consultations for depression, anxiety, and stress were analysed.MethodUsing a standardised coding scheme, five ways doctors recommend treatment were coded, conveying varying authority and endorsement. The treatment recommendation types were as follows: more directive pronouncements (I’ll start you on X); proposals (How about we start X?); less directive suggestions (Would you like to try X?); offers (Do you want me to give you X?); and assertions (There are medications that might help). It was also coded whether patients accepted, passively resisted (for example, withholding response), or actively resisted (for example, I’ve tried that before).ResultsA total of 33 recommendations occurred in 23 consultations. In two-thirds of cases, GPs treated the patient as primary decision-maker by using suggestions, offers, or assertions. In one-third of cases, they used more directive pronouncements or proposals. GPs endorsed treatment moderately (67%), weakly (18%), or strongly (15%). Only one-quarter of recommendations were accepted immediately. Patients cited fears about medication side effects and/or dependency, group therapy, and doubts about treatment efficacy. Despite three-quarters of patients resisting, 76% got prescriptions or self-referral information for talking therapy.ConclusionInitially, GPs treat patients as the decision-maker. However, although patients resist, most end up with treatment. This may impact negatively on treatment uptake and success. Social prescribing may fill a treatment gap for some patients.

BackgroundThe pressures of general practice contribute to high levels of stress, low morale, and burnout in some GPs. In addition, rurally-based doctors may experience significant professional isolation. Participation in continuing medical education (CME) appears to reduce stress, and may improve the retention of rural GPs.AimAs part of a larger study devised to examine the effectiveness of regular participation in CME small group learning (SGL) on rurally-based Irish GPs, this study explored whether CME-SGL had any impact on GP stress, morale, and professional isolation.Design & settingThis was a qualitative study involving four CME-SGL groups based in rural Ireland.MethodSemi-structured focus group interviews were conducted in established CME-SGL groups in four different rural geographical locations. Interviews were audiorecorded, transcribed verbatim, and analysed thematically.ResultsAll members of these CME-SGL groups (n= 43) consented to interview. These GPs reported that regular meetings with an established group of trusted colleagues who are ‘in the same boat’ provided a ‘safe space’ for discussion of, and reflection on, both clinical concerns and personal worries. This interaction in a supportive, non-threatening atmosphere helped to relieve stress, lift morale, and boost self-confidence. The social aspect of CME-SGL sustained these rural GPs, and served to alleviate their sense of professional isolation.ConclusionDelivery of CME through locally-based SGL provides as an important means of supporting GPs working in rural areas. The non-educational benefits of CME-SGL, as described by these Irish GPs, are of relevance for rural doctors in other countries.

Будущее ислама в Европе: религиоведческий анализ
Authors: Nesprava Nikolay 
Published: October 2019

В ходе исследования были определены следующие перспективы развития ислама в Европе. Во-первых, факты религиозного экстремизма и джихадистского терроризма на территории Европы не пойдут на спад, а будут только усиливаться. Во-вторых, учитывая проведенный в данном исследовании статистический анализ прироста населения в мусульманских странах, этнический и религиозный состав населения Европы значительно изменится, поскольку коренное население будет год за годом сокращаться, освобождая пространство для мигрантов и детей мигрантов из мусульманских стран, территории которых уже сейчас значительно перенаселены. В-третьих, мусульманское население будет играть всё более значительную роль в политической и общественной жизни Европы, благодаря, в первую очередь, своей численности и единству религиозной доктрины. В существующих тенденциях, во избежание религиозных и иных конфликтов, некоторые исследователи возлагают надежды на диалог между исламом и христианством. Однако успех такого диалога достаточно сомнителен ввиду значительных различий религиозных доктрин, а также резкого снижения индекса религиозности Запада наряду с увеличением количества верующих мусульман. Дабы не быть полностью «смытой» стремительной волной Ислама, западная цивилизация нуждается в сильном объединяющем и укрепляющем факторе, которым всегда являлось христианство.
Research and methodological approach to scoring the impact of banks performing operations involving transnational capital on the banking system of Ukraine
Authors: Tkachenko Nataliia , Momot Oleksandr 
Published: October 2019

The article examines the impact of banks performing operations involving transnational banking capital on the banking system of Ukraine through the use of the principal components analysis. This approach is related to the method of multidimensional statistical analysis and is widely used to reduce the dimension of an analyzed set of attributes, and to select the most informative indicators and classification features.From the research, it is found that the principal components analysis is based on the idea according to which structural properties of relations between variables can be determined by their dependence on fewer non-measureable (concealed, latent, hypothetical) general factors.The direct estimation of the impact of banks performing operations involving transnational capital on the banking system of Ukraine is carried out by means of the application package named Statistica. For this analysis, the following relative indicators showing how Ukraine’s banks perform operations involving transnational capital are used: 1) percentage of funds raised from legal entities; 2) percentage of funds raised from individuals; 3) percentage of owned capital; 4) percentage of profit / loss after tax; 5) percentage of assets; 6) percentage of loans and debts of legal entities; 7) percentage of loans and debts of individuals.Based on the research findings, it is shown that there are three principal components which take into account more than 5% of total variance. However, there is only one component among them the value of which exceeds 1. The second component equals 0.954179, meaning that it approaches 1. The scree plot shows that the breaking point can be viewed as the eigen-value of correlation matrix which equals 23.85%. Consequently, the two principal factors have an essential impact on the processes of foreign capital penetration into Ukraine.It is claimed that the expansion of transnational banking capital into the banking system of Ukraine is controversial. On the one hand, these trends are quite obvious. On the other hand, financial, economic, military, and political instability hampers such processes. In conclusion, it should be stressed that unlike other approaches, the research and methodological approach to scoring the impact of banks performing operations involving transnational capital on the banking system of Ukraine, is based on the principal components analysis. This makes it possible to develop an aggregate index which characterizes the impact of banks performing operations involving transnational capital on the banking system of Ukraine, and to use it for monitoring of structural changes in the banking system.

Published: October 2019

The paper claims that direct foreign investments play an essential role in every country’s economy, since they ensure its efficient functioning and further growth. Since investment rankings are used as a primary indicator, because they help investors quantify the investment image, possible risks and investment reliability, it is concluded that the amount of direct investments depends on the country’s investment image.The scope of research includes the country’s investment image and major investment rankings that shape the image. The aim of the study is to establish a list of international investment rankings, which prospective investors may analyze when making investment decisions. To obtain this objective, the following methods are used: theoretical generalization, comparison, abstraction, analysis and synthesis.The article presents an analysis of various views of national and foreign scholars on interpretation of investment image. Based on summarizing the existing opinions, a consolidated definition for investment image is proposed. A list of major investment rankings that shape the country’s investment image is established, and ways of calculating their particular characteristics are presented.It is concluded that in order to attract foreign investments to the required extent, each country should take measures to improve its investment image and its position in major international investment rankings.

Authors: Muravskyi Volodymyr 
Published: October 2019

In order to get rid of bureaucracy in business administration, and to eliminate overlapping functions, competition and contradiction of information that are common in linear and functional organizational structures, a need arises to develop new institutional forms of accounting. The paper reveals the prospects for the development of business networks in response to introducing electronic communication channels for accounting information transfer.The goal of the research is to consider the prospects of transition to the new institutional structure of accounting, which implies the consolidation of dynamic- network and project- matrix structural elements and improvement of funсtional responsibilities of accountants for obtaining skills and experience necessary for working with modern computer and communication technology. For this purpose, methods of analysis and synthesis are used in order to structure the study object on the basis of identifying functional responsibilities of accountants in automated accounting.The article examines stable, dynamic, project, matrix and other advanced forms of accounting and management. An information model which combines dynamic-network and project-matrix organizational structures is developed with a view to introducing advanced computer and communication technology in accounting administration. The role of professionals in accounting and management in a transition to automated accounting is described, particularly when promoting advanced organizational forms of accounting.Therefore, a list of functional responsibilities for accountants which is suitable for introducing a combined organizational structure is offered. Within the framework of computer and communication form of accounting, accountants set targets for the automated accounting system, and together with software engineers they develop and improve software and technical assistance, tailor the accounting system to changes inside and outside the company, control the correctness and efficiency of processing and transferring information by the automated processing system. As a result, more time will be freed to concentrate on interpreting accounting information for tactical and strategic targets. Further research should be undertaken to consider the functional role of accountants in communicating with managers and other company staff.
Genesis of accountability and its impact on accounting
Authors: Omodero Cordelia Onyinyechi 
Published: October 2019

Purpose: This study examines the genesis of accountability: a global view. The concept of accountability has been viewed from various disciplinary lenses in order to develop an integrated understanding of the term. Special attention is devoted to principal—agent perspectives from political science and economics.
Research methodology: An integrated framework is developed, based on four central observations. (1) Accountability is relational in nature and is constructed through inter- and intra-organizational relationships. (2) Accountability is complicated by the dual role of nonprofits as both principals and agents in their relationships with other actors. (3) Characteristics of accountability necessarily vary with the type of nonprofit organization being examined. (4) Accountability operates through external as well as internal processes, such that an emphasis on external oversight and control misses other dimensions of accountability essential to nonprofit organizations.
Results: The study finds that the time has come for individuals, organizations, stakeholders, establishments, institutions and governments to focus on reporting on their programme results, such as inventory take result and product performance result.
Limitation: Paucity of data and empirical works were the major restrictions to this study.
Contribution: Thus, being clear about intentions, measuring and understanding results, and making adjustments where necessary, would help assure taxpayers/stakeholders that their money is being spent wisely. A focus on results would also help to ensure that limited public resources are being applied in a way that provides the most value to all concerned.
