Authors: Osowiecka Karolina , Dolińska Anna , Szwiec Marek , Działach Eliza , Nowakowski Jacek J. , Rucińska Monika 
Published: April 2024

Background: Cancer influences various aspects of patients’ functioning. Cancer patients face not only medical problems but also organizational, socio-psychological, and spiritual problems. Their needs often seem to be unrecognized because patients do not express their concerns and clinicians do not ask appropriate questions. Unmet needs impact patients’ quality of life. The aim of this study was to select, adapt, validate, and introduce a simple instrument for estimating cancer patients’ unmet needs in Poland. Methods: The Needs Evaluation Questionnaire (NEQ) was chosen for validation in a Polish population. The Polish version of the NEQ was developed with a back-translation procedure, as approved by a psycho-oncologist and a public health specialist. The psychometric properties of the NEQ (content analysis, reliability, construct validity, comprehensibility, and acceptability) were measured. Results: This study was performed on a group of 121 cancer patients. The median time of completion for the NEQ was 10 min. The form, length, and font size of the NEQ were accepted by the respondents. Overall, the meaning of the questions was well understood, with only a few cases of discreetly heterogeneous interpretation of the content. The questionnaire showed good reliability and internal factor structure validity. Conclusion: The NEQ is a simple, easy-to-administer instrument with good psychometric properties and seems to be useful in assessing the unexpressed needs of cancer patients.

Authors: Дуброва М.В. 
Published: April 2024

Программно-целевой подход, применяемый в сфере государственного управления, актуализирует развитие теории и практики управления рисками при реализации государственных программ. В свете постоянно меняющихся экономических, экологических и социальных условий, эффективное управление рисками становится неотъемлемой частью управления реализацией государственных программ. В статье ставится задача систематизации особенностей управления рисками государственных программ агропромышленного комплекса. Управление рисками реализации государственных программ в агропромышленном комплексе является важным аспектом для достижения оптимальных результатов и обеспечения устойчивого развития данной отрасли. Сложность идентификации и оценки рисков в агропромышленном комплексе приводит к невыполнению целевых показателей реализации государственных программ, что обосновывает необходимость развития в государственном управлении риск-ориентированного подхода.
The program-target approach applied in the field of public administration actualizes the development of the theory and practice of risk management in the implementation of government programs. In the light of constantly changing economic, environmental and social conditions, effective risk management is becoming an integral part of managing the implementation of government programs. The article sets the task of systematizing the features of risk management of state programs of the agro-industrial complex. Risk management of the implementation of government programs in the agro-industrial complex is an important aspect for achieving optimal results and ensuring the sustainable development of this industry. The complexity of risk identification and assessment in the agro-industrial complex leads to non-fulfillment of targets for the implementation of government programs, which justifies the need to develop a risk-based approach in public administration.

Animal Fridays in Robinson Crusoe and Its Afterlives
Authors: Peraldo Emmanuelle 
Published: April 2024

Robinson narrates his rescue of Friday in a way that is reminiscent of the saving of the dog ten pages before: he calls them both ‘poor creatures’ and uses non-verbal communication with Friday at first as he does with his ‘pets’: all are discussed and addressed as his ‘subjects’ and possessions, irrespective of their human or non-human bodies. In a number of Robinsonades, the blurred human-animal boundary is translated in the fact that the role of Friday is taken up by an animal, most often a pet, as is the case with Yann Martel’s Life of Pi, in which the tiger, Richard Parker, is subjugated by Pi in a manner reminiscent of imperial control. Following recent critical work on ‘Animal Crusoes’ in children’s Robinsonades as well as the increased interest in ecocritical, posthuman theories and animal studies, this article focuses on animal comparisons and characters as regards Friday in Defoe’s novel and Life of Pi. It shows that while both texts may depict the subjugation of Friday in the context of colonialism and imperialism, they also participate in the breaking down of the absolute boundaries between humans and non-humans and provide a reflection upon and reevaluation of the nature/culture dichotomy.
Des questions controversées aux savoirs enseignables
Authors: Lantheaume Françoise 
Published: April 2024

Comment des questions controversées sont-elles transformées en savoirs enseignables, intégrées dans un curriculum ? La sociologie du curriculum, inspirée de la sociologie de la traduction, associée à l’histoire, vise à comprendre le processus de construction du curriculum et ses enjeux. Les débats sur des questions controversées en histoire rendent visible ce processus. L’étude de ces controverses, des groupes d’acteurs impliqués et de leurs interactions, des dispositifs et objets qui soutiennent leur action, fait apparaître la fabrique du curriculum comme le résultat d’interactions, d’une circulation des savoirs et de leurs supports dans des réseaux inégalitaires et de plus en plus instables. Ce processus de traduction permanente contribue à donner sa forme et son contenu au curriculum. Une conception moins descendante et plus complexe de la construction du curriculum et du curriculum lui-même en ressort.
Faire de la sociologie par-delà les murs du lycée ! En quête d’altérité
Authors: Zanna Omar 
Published: April 2024

En portant une attention aux enfants et aux jeunes dans et autour du cadre scolaire, l’objectif des cités éducatives est de transformer en frontières les murs existants entre les acteurs éducatifs afin d’accompagner au mieux chacun jusqu’à son entrée dans la vie active. Parler ici de frontière et non de mur est tout à fait opportun en ce sens où la frontière marque la reconnaissance de l’autre, quand le mur désigne la séparation qui ignore. C’est en partant de cette assertion que nous avons engagé en 2022, avec un groupe de lycéens et leurs enseignantes, une enquête grandeur nature sur le territoire de la cité éducative de Sedan. Les élèves ont commencé à arpenter le terrain d’abord sous forme d’observations, puis d’entretiens auprès des acteurs éducatifs, d’habitants et des élèves afin de saisir la forme du lien social à l’œuvre au sein de la cité éducative. Ce texte retrace cette expérience et discute des vertus sociales et pédagogiques de ce genre de pratique hors les murs.
EXECUTIVE TEAM FAULT LINES AND GREEN INNOVATION PERFORMANCE OF ENTERPRISES - A PERSPECTIVE OF RISK UNDERTAKING
Authors: Xing Wang , Xuan Xiao 
Published: April 2024

Environmental pollution and ecological degradation are increasingly becoming urgent global issues, drawing widespread attention. Against this backdrop, how businesses can balance economic benefits with environmental protection to ensure sustainable development has become a pressing issue to address. Green innovation, representing a synergistic blend of "innovation-driven" and "green development," can simultaneously meet the requirements for economic growth and ecological environmental protection. In the process of driving green innovation, the executive team plays a crucial role. As the heart of corporate decision-making and execution, the internal differentiation within the executive team, including physiological fault lines based on gender and age as well as task-related fault lines based on education, function, and tenure, affects the team's collaboration and decision-making efficiency, thereby influencing the implementation and outcomes of green innovation. Green innovation projects often entail high risk, difficulty, and long return cycles.
When making green innovation decisions, a company's insufficient risk-taking capacity may limit its investment and attempts at green innovation. This study, grounded in upper echelon theory and other theoretical frameworks, selects Chinese manufacturing companies listed from 2015 to 2022 as research subjects. From the perspective of corporate risk-taking, it delves into how physiological and task-related fault lines within the executive team affect green innovation performance by influencing the company's capacity for risk-taking. The research findings indicate that rational configuration and effective risk management by the executive team are crucial for promoting green innovation within a company, offering theoretical and practical guidance for achieving sustainable development.

Abstract
In this work the integration of ferroelectric (FE) devices for advanced in-memory computing applications is demonstrated based on the FeMFET memory cell concept. In contrast to FeFET having the FE layer directly embedded in the gate-stack, the FeMFET consists of a separated ferroelectric capacitor which can be integrated in the chip-interconnect layers. Optimization of the FE material stack under such lower thermal budget constraints will be discussed as well as the significant performance improvement and reduction of variability by application of superlattice FE-stacks and further optimization knobs. The low memory state variability is important for accurate multiply-accumulate (MAC) operation. Such improvements are demonstrated on a memory array test chip including functional verification of MAC operation along a FeMFET-based array column with good accuracy over high dynamic current range.
Surface activation of n-type AlGaN with cesium and oxygen to enhance thermionic emission

Published: April 2024

Abstract
The aim of this study is to enhance the characteristics of thermionic emission of AlGaN surface through surface control employing cesium (Cs) and oxygen. Cs-deposited AlGaN has significant applications in thermionic energy converters. However, as the emitter temperature increases, the thermal desorption of Cs from AlGaN surface increases, resulting in a decrease in the thermionic emission current. Therefore, focusing on the high affinity between Cs and oxygen, we investigated the possibility of suppressing thermal desorption by depositing Cs and oxygen on AlGaN surface. The thermionic emission current measured when Cs and oxygen were alternately deposited on AlGaN surface was 1.9 × 10−3 A cm−2 at 500 °C. The thermionic emission current was significantly higher than that obtained with Cs-only deposition (2.0 × 10−5 A cm−2). In addition, we attempted to reproduce the effect of dynamic surface changes on thermionic emission employing a new thermionic emission model (modified Richardson–Dushman model) that considers the correlation between a specific surface reconstruction phase and its thermionic emission component. The results suggest that the adsorbed component of Cs-deposited AlGaN exhibits three Cs adsorption sites with different desorption energies, while the adsorbed component of Cs/O2 co-deposited AlGaN exhibits at least four Cs adsorption sites with different desorption energies. It is suggested that the increase in adsorption components with higher desorption energies, caused by the deposition of oxygen, may have reduced the thermal desorption and improved Cs coverage and stability.
Evaluation of extremely thin polycrystalline germanium films and their TFT performance fabricated at 400 °C by Cu-induced crystallization on a glass substrate
Authors: Suzuki Sho , Hara Akito 
Published: April 2024

Abstract
Germanium (Ge) has high mobility and is more suitable for low-temperature device processes than silicon (Si); thus, it has attracted attention as an upper-layer transistor for monolithic three-dimensional (M3D) integration. We evaluated in detail the crystalline quality of extremely thin polycrystalline-Ge (poly-Ge) thin films thinner than 15 nm fabricated by metal-induced crystallization using copper (Cu-MIC) at 400 °C using micro-Raman scattering, in-plane X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), TEM energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, and TEM electron diffraction. Additionally, the films were applied to p-ch double-gate (DG) poly-Ge thin-film transistors (TFTs), and their performance was evaluated. As a result, a high I
on/I
off ratio of 2.8 × 103 was realized by crystallization at 400 °C with a ratio equal to that of crystallization at 500 °C. This study demonstrated the feasibility of Cu-MIC DG poly-Ge TFTs for M3D applications.

Published: April 2024

The impact of micro-alloying of AZ91 and NZ30K magnesium alloys with silver and scandium to produce biosoluble implants for osteosynthesis is studied in the paper. The application of these alloys is limited due to the significant reduction of the mechanical properties of magnesium during the regeneration of fractures. It was found that the higher the concentration of the above-mentioned elements, the bigger the amount of intermetalloids that appear and the smaller they become. There were different mechanical properties observed at the sample cross-section, but the difference was successfully eliminated by thermal treatment. It reduced the chemical heterogeneity of the workpiece at the cross-section and, respectively, the value of micro-hardness. It is shown that microalloying these alloys with 0.05…0.1 % of silver and scandium ensures the grinding of the structural elements of the metal and a significant increase of the set of their properties. The research of the developed alloys showed that NZ30K alloy, which additionally contains 0,05 ... 0,1% of silver, after a three-month treatment with gelofusine saves its mechanical properties like those of the bone tissue. Pre-clinical research revealed that they are non-toxic, have an antibacterial effect and preserve the whole set of properties till the complete fracture consolidation.
Investigating acoustic numerosity illusions in professional musicians
Authors: Pecunioso Alessandra , Spoto Andrea , Agrillo Christian 
Published: April 2024

AbstractVarious studies have reported an association between musical expertise and enhanced visuospatial and mathematical abilities. A recent work tested the susceptibility of musicians and nonmusicians to the Solitaire numerosity illusion finding that also perceptual biases underlying numerical estimation are influenced by long-term music training. However, the potential link between musical expertise and different perceptual mechanisms of quantitative estimation may be either limited to the visual modality or universal (i.e., modality independent). We addressed this question by developing an acoustic version of the Solitaire illusion. Professional musicians and nonmusicians listened to audio file recordings of piano and trombone notes and were required to estimate the number of piano notes. The stimuli were arranged to form test trials, with piano and trombone notes arranged in a way to form the Solitaire pattern, and control trials, with randomly located notes to assess their quantitative abilities in the acoustic modality. In the control trials, musicians were more accurate in numerical estimation than nonmusicians. In the presence of illusory patterns, nonmusicians differed from musicians in the esteem of regularly arranged vs. randomly arranged notes. This suggests that the association between long-term musical training and different perceptual mechanisms underlying numerical estimation may not be confined to the visual modality. However, neither musicians nor nonmusicians seemed to be susceptible to the acoustic version of the Solitaire illusion, suggesting that the emergence of this illusion may be stimulus and task-dependent.
