Structural gaps of water resources knowledge in global river basins
Authors: Wu Shuanglei , Wei Yongping , Wang Xuemei 
Published: October 2021

Abstract. The stationarity of hydrological systems is dead in the era of the Anthropocene. Has our hydrological or water resources knowledge been well transformed to address this change? By using publications indexed in the Web of Science database since 1900, we aim to investigate the global development of water resources knowledge at the river basin scale with a systems approach, of which water resources knowledge development in a river basin is defined as a complex system involving the co-evolutionary dynamics of scientific disciplines and management issues. It is found that (1) legacy-driven water resources knowledge structures have consistently dominated most of the highly researched river basins in the world, while innovation-driven structures are identified in the river basins receiving increasing research publications in the recent period; (2) the management issues addressed by legacy-driven river basin studies are increasingly homogenized, while a wider range of emerging issues are considered by innovation-driven river basin studies; and (3) cross-disciplinary collaborations have remained largely unchanged and collaborations with social sciences have been very limited. It is concluded that the stationarity of water resources knowledge structure persists. A structural shift of water resources knowledge development is urgently needed to cope with the rapidly changing hydrological systems and associated management issues, and opportunities for such a shift exist in those less researched but globally distributed innovation-driven river basins.
Library involvement in health informatics education for health professions students and practitioners: a scoping review
Authors: Lauseng Deborah L. , Alpi Kristine M. , Linares Brenda M. , Sullo Elaine , Von Isenburg Megan 
Published: October 2021

Objective: The purpose of this scoping review is to evaluate the extent of library or librarian involvement in informatics education in the health domain.Methods: We searched eight databases from their inception to 2019 for reports of informatics educational activities for health professionals or health professions students that involved library staff or resources. Two reviewers independently screened all titles/abstracts (n=2,247) and resolved inclusion decisions by consensus. From the full text of the 36 papers that met the inclusion criteria, we extracted data on 41 educational activities.Results: The most frequent coded purposes of activities were “teaching clinical tools” (n=19, 46.3%) and “technology” (n=17; 41.5%). Medical students were the most frequent primary audience (34.1%), though 41.5% of activities had multiple audiences. Evaluation was reported for 24 activities (58.5%), only a few of which assessed short or post-activity impact on attitudes, knowledge, or skills. The most common long-term outcome was applying skills in other courses or clinical experiences. Thematic analysis yielded three areas of outcomes and issues for the library and organizational partners: expanded opportunities, technology and resource issues, and value demonstration.Conclusions: Limited published examples of health informatics educational activities provide models for library roles in informatics education. More librarians should report on their informatics educational activities and provide sufficient details on the interventions and their evaluation. This would strengthen the evidence base about the potential impact of libraries within informatics education.
A health literacy analysis of the consumer-oriented COVID-19 information produced by ten state health departments
Authors: Mani Nandita S. , Ottosen Terri , Fratta Megan , Yu Fei 
Published: October 2021

Objective: The COVID-19 pandemic highlights the public’s need for quality health information that is understandable. This study aimed to identify (1) the extent to which COVID-19 messaging by state public health departments is understandable, actionable, and clear; (2) whether materials produced by public health departments are easily readable; (3) relationships between material type and understandability, actionability, clarity, and reading grade level; and (4) potential strategies to improve public health messaging around COVID-19. Methods: Based on US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention statistics from June 30, 2020, we identified the ten states with the most COVID-19 cases and selected forty-two materials (i.e., webpages, infographics, and videos) related to COVID-19 prevention according to predefined eligibility criteria. We applied three validated health literacy tools (i.e., Patient Education Materials Assessment Tool, CDC Clear Communication Index, and Flesch-Kincaid Grade Level) to assess material understandability, actionability, clarity, and readability. We also analyzed correlations between scores on the three health literacy tools and material types.Results: Overall, COVID-19 materials had high understandability and actionability but could be improved in terms of clarity and readability. Material type was significantly correlated with understandability, actionability, and clarity. Infographics and videos received higher scores on all tools.Conclusions: Based on our findings, we recommend public health entities apply a combination of these tools when developing health information materials to improve their understandability, actionability, and clarity. We also recommend using infographics and videos when possible, taking a human-centered approach to information design, and providing multiple modes and platforms for information delivery.

Authors: Omodan Bunmi , Dube Bekithemba 
Published: October 2021

As our inaugural statement, this article conceptualises sociality, which forms the focus of the "Interdisciplinary Journal of Sociality Studies". We reinvigorated its “scope and focus” for the cognisance of our potential authors. We also explicated, step by step, our fundamental editorial process, including the issue of originality, trustworthiness and misconduct, ethical considerations, citation and referencing style, disclosure and conflict of interest, permissions and acknowledgement, as part of our quality production process. The article also presents the academic background of all our inaugural editorial team to display the potential of IJSS towards the production of quality knowledge on sociality studies. Based on this exploration, we conclude that IJSS accommodates any scholarly articles that solve social-related problems with an iota of sociological and emancipatory tendency involving humans and their relationships with but not limited to environment, objects and subjects. Therefore, we recommend that all potential authors ensure that the author guidelines' instructions are strictly adhered to while preparing for submission.

Published: October 2021

Objective: Excess body weight is the sixth most important risk factor contributing to the overall burden ofdisease worldwide. The circulating leptins have been found to play a vital role in the regulation of appetite,glucose homeostasis and body fat. Therefore, this study was designed to measure serum leptin and insulinresistance in non obese and obese young adults and to correlate them with obesity parameters: body massindex, waist circumference, waist-to-hip ratio and metabolic indices.Methods: A total of 43 non- obese subjects, 20 male and 23 female aged 20- 25 years and 46 obese subjects,25 male and 21 female with age 28- 37 years were studied. All subjects selected for study were normotensiveand non-diabetic. Variables measured were Body Mass Index (BMI), waist to hip ratio(WHR), bloodpressure, serum leptin, insulin, fasting blood glucose, oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), and lipid profile.Results: Serum leptin was significantly higher in females than males 8.8 ± 2.10 SEM and 2.2 ± 0.26 ng/mlSEM respectively in non-obese.As well, Serum leptin was significantly higher in females than males 23.0 ±3.98 SEM and 12.5 ± 2.24 ng/ml SEM respectively in obese group. Serum leptin was significantly higher inobese males, and obese females compared to non- obese subjects. Serum leptin significantly, and positivelycorrelated with BMI (r = 0.440), hip circumference (r =0.425), insulin (r = 0.334), and homeostasis Model ofAssessment - Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR)r= 0.334 whereas HOMA-IR positively correlated with BMI,waist Circumference, fasting insulin, fasting blood glucose, triglycerides (TG), TG/HDL-Cholesterol ratioand negatively correlated with HDL-Cholesterol.Conclusions: Serum leptin levels increase with obesity, and are higher in females in both non-obese andobese individuals. Serum leptin significantly correlated with hip circumference. Increased serum leptin,especially in obese subjects, should be taken as a warning sign of energy imbalance, poor diet,hyperinsulinemia, insulin resistance, or changes in other metabolic risk factors that are stronglyassociated with cardiovascular diseases and type 2 diabetes.

Muslim spiritual poetry of the Adygs in the modern folklore field: fixation specifics
Authors: Нагароков Казбек Рамазанович 
Published: October 2021

Исследуются проблемы фиксации зачиров и молитвенных стихов из мусульманской духовной поэзии, рассматриваемой в качестве жанровой области адыгского фольклора. Эмпирической базой послужили записи нескольких сеансов, произведенные в Хакуринохабльской аульской мечети. Сравниваются исполнительские традиции адыгских народных песен и зачиров. Методом включенного наблюдения выявляются характерные особенности женского песнопения. Делается вывод о том, что в современном фольклорном поле достаточно активно функционирует женская форма исполнения мусульманской духовной поэзии. На уровне поэтики в ней переплетены как религиозные, так и традиционные фольклорные элементы.
Problems of fixing zachirs and prayer verses from Muslim spiritual poetry, considered as a genre field of Adyg folklore, are studied. The empirical basis was the recordings of several sessions made at the Khakurinokhable Aul Mosque. The performing traditions of Adyg folk songs and zachirs are compared. The method of participatory observation is used to reveal the characteristic features of female chanting. It is concluded that a female form of the performance of Muslim spiritual poetry is quite active in modern folklore. At the level of poetics, both religious and traditional folklore elements are intertwined in it.
Adyghe (Circassian) theme in the work of Western European composers of the 19th century
Authors: Бахтина Зарета Вахтангиевна 
Published: October 2021

Целью является рассмотрение в контексте эстетики романтизма тип отражения образов Кавказа композиторами XIX века в Западной Европе без апелляции к «чужому слову» и использования этнических языковых элементов. Вводятся в научный обиход две фортепианные пьесы - «Черкесский марш» австрийского композитора Иоганна Штрауса (сына), «Черкесская песня» немецкого композитора Жана Вогта (Фогта) и пьеса Альфреда Лебо для фисгармонии (органа) «Черкесский марш». Использование контекстного подхода и музыковедческого инструментария анализа, позволяет выявить существенные черты музыкальной поэтики сочинений и прийти к выводу, что инонациональная образность передается западноевропейскими композиторами посредством условного обобщенно-поэтического воплощения темы Кавказа. Теоретическая значимость состоит в изучении творчества европейских композиторов, в том числе и «второго ряда», но весьма значимых для выявления отношения к адыгской (черкесской) теме в культуре Европы XIX в. и понимания специфики отражения этой темы в творчестве композиторов иных музыкальных культур. Практическая значимость - в возможности дополнения содержания дисциплин национально-регионального компонента образовательных программ вузов культуры и искусства.
The goal is to consider, in the context of the romanticism aesthetics, the type of reflection of the images of the Caucasus by composers of the 19th century in Western Europe without an appeal to the "alien word" and the use of ethnic language elements. Two piano pieces "Circassian March" by the Austrian composer Johann Strauss (son), "Circassian Song" by the German composer Jean Vogt and the play by Alfred Lebeau for harmonium (organ) "Circassian March" are introduced into scientific use. The use of a context approach and musicological tools of analysis allows us to identify significant features of musical poetics of compositions. The author concludes that Western European composers convey foreign imagery through a conditional generalized poetic embodiment of the Caucasus theme. Theoretical significance lies in the study of the work of European composers, including the "second row", but very significant in identifying the attitude to the Adyghe (Circassian) topic in the culture of Europe of the 19th century and understanding the specifics of reflecting this topic in the work of composers of other musical cultures. Practical significance - in the possibility of supplementing the content of disciplines of the national-regional component of educational programs of universities of culture and art.
Comparative analysis of the opera “Turandot” by G. Puccini and the Beijing Opera “Princess Turandot”
Authors: У Лиян 
Published: October 2021

Проводится сравнительный анализ оперы Дж. Пуччини «Турандот» и пекинской оперы «Принцесса Турандот», который выстраивается на основе оппозиции Запад-Восток. Целью исследования является изучение специфических особенностей пекинской оперы, осуществляемое в опоре на историко-стилевой и культурологический подходы. В ходе исследования доказывается, что принципиальное несовпадение западного классического образца и пекинской версии истории о китайской принцессе определяется разностью культурных традиций, в опоре на которые формируется менталитет творческой элиты Запада и Востока. Теоретическая новизна обусловлена выявлением культурных отличий, обнаруживаемых в таком синтетическом жанре музыкального искусства, как западная опера и пекинская опера. Практическая значимость состоит в возможности использовать полученные данные в процессе интерпретации и реинтерпретации сказки К. Гоцци не в контексте оперного творчества, но и в рамках мирового художественного наследия, частью которого выступает спектакль «Принцесса Турандот». Поставленный в 1922 году Е. Вахтанговым, он и сегодня остается в репертуаре театра, вызывая восторг у публики.
The paper presents a comparative analysis of the operas “Turandot” and “Princess Turandot”, which is built on the basis of the West-East opposition. In one case, we are talking about the creation of G. Puccini, in the other - about the Peking opera. The aim of the research is to study the specific features of the Peking opera, carried out in reliance on the historical, stylistic and culturological approaches. The study proves that the fundamental discrepancy between the Western classical model and the Peking version of the story about the Chinese princess is determined by the difference in cultural traditions, on the basis of which the mentality of the creative elite of the West and the East is formed. The theoretical novelty of the study is due to the identification of cultural differences found in such a synthetic genre of musical art as Western opera and Peking opera. The practical significance of the research lies in the possibility to use the obtained data in the process of interpretation and reinterpretation of C. Gozzi's fairy tale not in the context of operatic creativity, but also within the framework of the world artistic heritage, of which the play “Princess Turandot” is a part. Staged in 1922 by E. Vakhtangov, it remains in the theater's repertoire today, delighting the audience.
Problems of definitions and translation of English complex subject adjectives into Russian
Authors: Кубашичева Сафият Крымовна 
Published: October 2021

Рассматриваются структурно-семантические группы многокомпонентных предметных прилагательных, представленные в классической английской художественной прозе как наиболее яркие стилистические приемы словотворчества и авторских новообразований. Посредством сравнительно-сопоставительного и лексико-семантического методов исследуется лингвистический материал на основе известных произведений англоязычных писателей, а также лексикографические источники двуязычных словарей. Метод компонентного анализа группы авторских адъективных новообразований позволяет прийти к заключению о высокой продуктивности образования сложных предметных прилагательных. Аналитический обзор выявил структурно-семантические характеристики класса прилагательных, которые напрямую связаны с их семантикой. Таким образом, установлено, что изучение и сопоставление словарных дефиниций помогает переводу сложных определений цвета в разных культурах.
The paper deals with structural and semantic groups of multicomponent subject adjectives, presented in classical English art prose as the most striking stylistic techniques of word-making and authors’ neologisms. Through comparative and lexical-semantic methods, we study linguistic material based on the famous works of English-language writers, as well as lexicographic sources of bilingual dictionaries. The method of component analysis of the group of authors’ adjective neologisms allows us to conclude that the formation of complex subject adjectives is highly productive. An analytical review revealed structural-semantic characteristics of the adjective class that are directly related to their semantics. Thus, it has been found that studying and comparison of dictionary definitions helps translate complex color definitions in different cultures.
Productivity of word-forming models as a phenomenon of mobility of English language space
Authors: Кубашичева Сафият Крымовна , Хатхе Асият Асланбечевна 
Published: October 2021

Рассматриваются актуальные структурные модели словообразования и экстралингвистические факторы развития лексической системы английского языка. Использование структурно-семантического анализа позволяет выделить группу новых терминов экономической и финансовой сферы; посредством лингвистического анализа определяются неологизмы, образованные продуктивными способами словосложения. Словообразовательный анализ демонстрирует прагматический аспект новообразований, которые содержат дополнительные стилистические коннотации. Полученные данные способствуют достижению более высокого уровня ментальной адекватности перевода специальных текстов и актуализируют дальнейшие разработки переводческих концепций. Теоретическая значимость и практическая ценность работы заключается в осмыслении общетеоретических представлений и дефиниций, систематизации знаний о структурно-семантических особенностях новой терминологической лексики, а также в возможности использовать результаты исследования английского словообразовательного потенциала на курсах лекций по лексикологии, теории и практике перевода.
This work explores current structural models of word formation and extralinguistic factors of the development of the Lexical System of the English language. The use of structural and semantic analysis makes it possible to identify a group of new economic and financial terms; through linguistic analysis, neologisms formed by productive ways of making words are defined. Word-forming analysis demonstrates the pragmatic aspect of neologisms that contain additional stylistic connotations. The findings contribute to a higher level of mental adequacy of translation of special texts and update further development of translation concepts. The theoretical significance and practical value of the work lies in the comprehension of general theoretical ideas and definitions, the systematic knowledge of the structural and semantic features of the new terminological vocabulary, as well as the ability to use the results of the study of English word-forming potential in courses in lexicology, theory and practice of translation.
