Authors: Coman Marin-Marian , Kifor Claudiu-Vasile 
Published: June 2024

Abstract
The accelerating pace of technological advance and its emergent and disruptive trends related to new innovations and adopted technologies have a great impact on our society. The technological, geopolitical, environmental, economic, and disruptive trends are expected to reshape the evolution of businesses and how people interact with each other. Negative effects, threats, vulnerabilities, and consequences of a rapid adoption and implementation of any emerging technologies lead to specific risks which require organizations to rethink their strategy, governance and architecture of the business models. This paper aims to emphasize the adoption evolution and implementation effects of emerging and disruptive technologies that could lead to certain challenges in the majority of fields of activity. A bibliometric analysis was conducted in order to highlight the associated risks and consequences that could result from disruptive trends concerning the adoption and implementation over time of the emerging and disruptive technologies.

Methods Regarding the Emerging Technological Phenomena of Modern Security in Nonlinear Dynamic Systems. Application Studies and Identifications Methods
Authors: Georgescu Ştefan-Gabriel 
Published: June 2024

Abstract
The method of emergence of a technological mathematical system is the process by which complex behaviors are formed starting from extremely simple rules. This process is dynamic, with entities presenting emergence over a longer period of time (for example, the successive stages of evolution of multicellular structures from simple organisms to a human brain capable of consciousness. At the same time, emergence can occur between entities of sizes that differ by many orders of magnitude (for example, the interaction between a large number of neurons resulting in the human brain capable of rational thought, although the neurons themselves do not exhibit this ability.
Practical Aspects of Using Modern Laser Scanning Techniques for Measuring Mine Excavations
Authors: Agatowski Adam , Młynarczuk Mariusz 
Published: June 2024

Abstract
For more than a dozen or so years now, there has been growing interest in the use of modern laser scanning measurement methods in numerous mining operations engaged in underground excavation. However, the simple possession of a scanner does not guarantee satisfactory measurement results. This study sets out the results of scanning mine excavations in an active mine and describes the current guidelines on various aspects of the measurement process. These guidelines were developed on the basis of several hundred measurements carried out over the last dozen or so years.
This study also outlines the typical measurements errors observed over the course of many years. These errors, resulting partly from hardware limitations and partly from human error when planning or actually performing measurements, were an important factor behind the introduction of standards regulating underground measurements.
This study discusses in detail not only scanning that utilises traditional stationary laser scanners but also scanning based on mobile scanners. It also presents possible areas of future technological development in line with global trends.
Horizon 2020 Project Analysis by Using Topic Modelling Techniques in the Field of Transport
Authors: Esztergár-Kiss Domokos 
Published: June 2024

Abstract
Understanding the main research directions in transport is crucial to provide useful and relevant insights. The analysis of Horizon 2020, the largest research and innovation framework, has been already realized in a few publications but rarely for the field of transport. Thus, this article is devoted to fill this gap by introducing a novel application of topic modelling techniques, specifically the Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA), in the Horizon 2020 framework for transport projects. The method is using the Mallet software with pre-examined code optimizations. As the first step, a corpus is created by collecting 310 project abstracts; afterward, the texts of abstracts are prepared for the LDA analysis by introducing stop words, optimization criteria, the number of words per topics, and the number of topics. The study successfully uncovers the following five main underlying topics: road and traffic safety, aviation and aircraft, mobility and urban transport, maritime industry and shipping, open and real-time data in transport. Besides that, the main trends in transport are identified based on the frequency of words and their occurrence in the corpus. The applied approach maximizes the added value of the Horizon 2020 initiatives by revealing insights that may be overlooked using traditional analysis methods.
The Relationship Between Academic Motivation and Self-Efficacy in Undergraduate Students: Kosovo Case
Authors: Celcima Denis , Osmani Fatbardha , Bardhi Eglantina Kraja , Icka Ejona Miraka 
Published: June 2024

Objective: This study aimed to investigate the relationship between self-efficacy and academic motivation in Kosovo undergraduate students. It also examined whether the relationship between academic motivation and self-efficacy was significantly mediated by the effect of educational achievement. It also took into account the role of the socio-economic status in this relationship.

Theoretical Framework: The rationale of this study was framed within the theoretical framework of self-determination that focuses on the controlled behavior in academic performance and within the theoretical framework of self-efficacy which is based on belief in one's ability to complete specified tasks or goals.

Methods: This study used a quantitative methodology by adopting standardized measures including a 27-item survey of academic motivation and a 10-item instrument of self-efficacy. The construct of academic achievement was measured by a self-reported average grade of students and a socio-economic status questionnaire was designed for this purpose of this study. Data collection was carried out online through the online Qualtrics platform.

Results and Conclusions: The results showed that there was a statistical significant effect of self-efficacy to both extrinsic and intrinsic motivation. Results revealed that there was no significant correlation between academic achievement and self-efficacy or academic motivation and no significant correlation between the socio-economic status scores and all the variables.

Implications of research: The findings of this study have practical implications for university administrators and researchers focused in students’ retention in universities and their academic achievements. It demonstrates that how well students are academically motivated to achieve their academic goal very well depends on their perceived self-efficacy.

Originality/value: The study included a range of 85 undergraduate students from the department of psychology and the department of English language. The novelty of this study is that it examined Albanian speaking undergraduates, which is a highly underrepresented population in this area of study.

Production Arrangement of Cachaça: Comparative Study Between Morretes in the Paraná Coast and Luiz Alves in Itajaí Valley - Santa Catarina
Authors: Anacleto Adilson , Rocha Karina Beatriz dos Santos Ferreira da , Calliari Raíssa Leal , Santos Maike dos , Deretti Sandro 
Published: June 2024

Objective: The research sought to promote a characterization of the cachaça LPA in Morretes, Paraná in comparison to an LPA in another Brazilian region, whose production is similar and is classified as one of the most developed in Brazil.

Theoretical Framework: Studies about Local Productive Arrangements have been relevant to proposals and regional development, so the basis of the research was inserted in the introductory phase.

Method: Between May 2022 and February 2023, an exploratory descriptive study was carried out with leaders of two cachaça production arrangements located in the south of Brazil, one consolidated in Santa Catarina and the other one under development in Paraná.

Results and Discussion: The results obtained revealed that despite the similar number of producers, the Morretes LPA has a production capacity equivalent to 35% of what is produced in the Luiz Alves LPA. The difference in productivity is not linked to factors such as proximity to the consumer market, distribution logistics, labor or even geoclimatic characteristics. The main factors limiting the easier development of LPAs were the degree of difficulty in regularizing production, the lack of technical assistance and the almost non-existence of public policies, with the Morretes LPA on the coast of Paraná being most impacted. It is concluded that the insertion of tourism associated with beverage consumption, investment in marketing actions and public policies that facilitate the regularization of informal producers can strengthen the Morretes LPA and promote its consolidation as an economic activity that generates regional development.

Research Implications: The Morretes LPA has all the favorable and synergistic conditions for the development of the cachaça LPA, and in this context the offer of new services and products arising from production and trade activities can generate a set of entertainment offered as a new experience for tourists, in addition from visits to stills and the creation of parties and fairs with the drink theme.

Originality/Value: Comparative studies between local productive arrangements are still little explored in scientific literature and may guide regional development in a more organized way.
Seksualitāte
Authors: Sīlis Vents 
Published: June 2024

In the paper “Sexuality”, Vents Sīlis compares two different approaches to the phenomenon of sexuality – essentialism and constructionism. / Venta Sīļa raksta “Seksualitāte” ievadā tiek salīdzinātas divas teorētiskās pieejas seksualitātei – esenciālisms, kas seksualitāti raksturo kā dabisku, universālu dziņu, un sociālais konstrukcionisms, priekšroku dodot pēdējai. Sociālais konstrukcionisms nenoliedz seksualitātes bioloģisko pamatu, taču parāda, ka mūsu seksuālo uzvedību tomēr nosaka kultūras normas, kas apgūtas socializācijas procesā. Zigmunda Freida psihoseksuālās attīstības teorija tiek skatīta kā viens no pirmajiem centieniem aplūkot seksualitāti cilvēka personības attīstības kontekstā – Freids apraksta, kā infantilā seksualitāte pārtop pieauguša cilvēka dzimumbriedumā. Rakstā dots arī vēsturisks atskats uz seksualitātes skaidrojumu filosofijā, kur tiek risināts jautājums, kā nodalīt pozitīvo, morāli akceptējamo seksualitāti no tumšas, amorālas iekāres, kuras dēļ cilvēki zaudē prātu un cilvēcību. Pēc tam tiek raksturots mūsdienu seksualitātes diskurss un tā teorētiskie skaidrojumi M. Fuko darbos, kuros seksualitāte parādās kā politiska problēma, un E. Gidensa idejās par sociālajām transformācijām, kuru rezultātā ir veidojušies mūsdienu priekšstati par seksualitāti. Tiek aplūkota arī psihoterapeites E. Perelas teorija par seksualitāti kā vitalitātes un personiskā piepildījuma līdzekli. Nobeigumā tiek secināts, ka seksualitāte ir jāskata kā eksistenciāla kategorija, kas izsaka un veido cilvēka unikālo personību. 6.3. Filozofija, reliģija, ētika. Filozofiskās antropoloģijas apakšnozare. Atslēgvārdi: seksualitāte; Z. Freida psihoseksuālās attīstības teorija; M. Fuko; seksualitātes diskurss; eksistenciāls piepildījums.
History of Russian Musical Folklore Studies through the Eyes of Eugene W. Hippius: To the 120th Anniversary of the Scientist’s Birth
Authors: Пашина О.А. 
Published: June 2024

Статья посвящена воззрениям выдающегося исследователя народной музыки Евгения Владимировича Гиппиуса (1903–1985) на историю отечественной музыкальной фольклористики. Он считал важным изучение не только народной музыки как таковой, но и науки о музыкальном фольклоре, ибо это проливает свет на причины интереса к нему в определенные периоды прошлого, а также на эволюцию взглядов ученых. На основе анализа сборников народных песен конца XVIII — начала XX в., в которых отразилась позиция собирателей по отношению к народной песне, а также теоретических работ предшественников он выделил в рамках обозначенного времени три периода собирания и изучения музыкального фольклора в России. Критериями для периодизации послужили различия в типах сборников народных песен, появлявшихся на разных исторических этапах. Творческое, но одновременно и критическое отношение Гиппиуса к трудам ученых более раннего времени позволяло ему в научном диалоге с ними вырабатывать собственные методологические подходы к изучению музыкального фольклора, являющегося, по мнению Гиппиуса, частью общей истории музыки, которую можно исследовать только в контексте эволюции социальных отношений и человеческого мышления.
The article is devoted to the views of the outstanding researcher of folk music Eugene W. Hippius (1903–1985) on the history of Russian musical folklore studies. He considered it important to study not only folk music as such, but also the history of the science of musical folklore, because this sheds light on the reasons for interest in it in certain historical periods, as well as on the evolution of scientists’ views thereon. Based on the analysis of collections of folk songs of the late 18th — early 20th centuries, which reflected the position of the collectors in relation to folk songs, as well as the theoretical works of his predecessors, he identified three periods of collecting and studying musical folklore in Russia within the designated time frame. The criteria for periodization were differences in the types of collections of folk songs that appeared at different historical stages. Нippius’s both creative and critical attitude to the works of his predecessors allowed him, in a scientific dialogue with them, to develop his own methodological approaches to the study of musical folklore. At the same time, the scientist believed that musical folklore is part of the history of music, which can only be studied in the context of social history and evolution of human thinking.
