Duty as a value-legal phenomenon
Authors: Popovych T.P. 
Published: November 2023

In the course of its development, each society tried to create a certain set of established rules of behavior to regulate social relations, as a result of which various models of mandatory, prohibited or permitted behavior were formed. The general rule for building the specified models was to grant the participants of social relations subjective rights and impose legal obligations on them. So, of course, duty is an extremely important component both in the regulation of social relations and the construction of a proper legal order, as well as in the functioning of legal systems as a whole. However, despite such an important role, the category of duty has rarely been subject to comprehensive research, so we consider it appropriate to analyze the nature of such a concept as «duty», in particular, to focus attention on it through the prism of its value character. In addition, the relevance of the study of this topic is determined by the problem of duty, and in particular, the problem of its implementation and proper execution, which is the subject of constant discussions in society. Also, the basis for a proper study of the category of duty is a certain limitation of its perception as an exclusively legal category, since, in our opinion, duty is a broader concept that can be confidently called a value-legal phenomenon. Thus, the article carried out a study of the chronological development of the category of duty, starting from the birth of the first social duties, ending with the construction of the legal concept of duty in modern society.
In the course of writing the article, an attempt was made to provide our own interpretation of duty as a value-legal phenomenon, and to explain on the basis of what we consider duty to be a value. Attention is also drawn to the fact that manifestations of legal nihilism appear in modern society, which actually has a negative effect on the affirmation of duty as a value.
Health care system in terms of digitalization and reforming financing
Authors: Muzyka-Stefanchuk O. , Stefanchuk M. , Lakymchuk N. 
Published: November 2023

The article is devoted to issues of the digital economy, which is its own trend in modern economics and management. The path to the digital economy is through the internal market of production, use and consumption of information, communication and digital technologies. The digital economy is based on information and communication and digital technologies, the rapid development and spread of which already affect the traditional (physical-analog) economy today, transforming it from one that consumes resources to one that creates resources. It is data that is the key resource of the digital economy, it is generated and provides electronic communication interaction due to the functioning of electronic and digital devices, means and systems.
It has been proven that the digital economy is mediated by digitization, which means saturating the physical world with electronic-digital devices, means, systems and establishing electronic- communication exchange between them, which in fact provides an integral interaction of the virtual and physical, that is, creates a cyber-physical space.
The provisions of the Concept of Development of the Digital Economy and Society of Ukraine in the area of healthcare and medicine are analyzed. Supported the position that an element of the development of digital medicine is the introduction of a telesystem for providing remote medical services to citizens and supporting the work of doctors, especially in rural areas.
The concept «health care» is considered through the prism of a system of measures aimed at preserving and restoring physiological and psychological functions, optimal working capacity and social activity of a person with maximum biological provision of the individual length of his life.
The set of such concepts as «electronic health care system» and «electronic health care» are considered.
It is argued that the budgetary financing of the health care sector should take into account expenses for the purchase of equipment, software, technical support, etc. Part of the relevant expenses can be covered not by the expense of budget funds, but by the expense of various types of grants, fundraising funds.
Restrictive measures applied to persons perpetrators of domestic violence: national and foreign experience
Authors: Ostapchuk L.H. 
Published: November 2023

The article establishes that in modern conditions, punishment for criminal offenses related to domestic violence, as a traditional measure of a criminal law nature, cannot overcome all challenges in the field of protection of «healthy» family relations which, in turn, actualizes the possibility to apply and other measures of a criminal law nature. In this regard, in 2017 the Law of Ukraine «On Amendments to the Criminal and Criminal Procedure Codes of Ukraine to implement the provisions of the Council of Europe Convention on Preventing and Combating Violence against Women and Domestic Violence» was adopted, thus in criminal law Ukraine has an institute of restrictive measures.
The article provides arguments in favor of attributing restrictive measures as measures of criminal law, not administrative law, and supports the position of the legislator on the legal regulation of their application in the Criminal Code of Ukraine.
An attempt was made to determine the significance of the institution of restrictive measures, which, in the author's opinion, is to help prevent the commission of new criminal offenses against the victim of domestic violence; ensuring the educational impact on the offender by providing appropriate assistance within the implementation of the program for offenders or probation program, reducing the latency of relevant criminal offenses.
An attempt has been made to study the institution of restrictive measures in some foreign countries, in particular: the USA, Australia, Belgium. The positive experience of which can be implemented by making appropriate changes to the legislation of Ukraine in terms of imposing restrictive measures on persons who commit domestic violence.
It is proved that law enforcement practice, it can be said that the law enforcement practice of Ukraine and foreign countries clearly demonstrates that international law is developing through the recognition of state responsibility for domestic violence. Court decisions made in Ukraine and the European Court of Human Rights demonstrate that the practice in this category of cases is developing dynamically, and positive foreign experience needs to be implemented in domestic legislation and law enforcement practice. The vector of change should be aimed at the adoption of appropriate general measures by public authorities to counteract the underlying problem and prevent future ill-treatment by offenders.
A new methodological approach for analysing river basins landscape changes
Authors: Bzour Ansam , Válanszki István 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
Research indicates that the Jordan River Basin area is an area where serious environmental and cultural changes occur. This paper illustrates a new methodological approach to developing a structural framework to study river basins‘ cultural and landscape changes. The aim of the proposed framework is to elaborate and overlap the natural and cultural driving forces that influence the landscape and to understand the relationship between them. The study consists of four stages: 1. setting specific objectives coinciding with the study area conditions and specifications; 2. defining a specific technique to determine the selected time frame; 3. defining the factors of each driving force and evaluating their correspondence with the study objectives, and finally; 4. building matrixes of intersections combining the natural force, the cultural force, and the overlapping between both, and adopting specific methodological techniques and tools to measure the outcome of each intersection. The paper presents a case study of the application of the proposed framework in the Jordan River Basin. The research results demonstrate the usefulness of the developed framework in understanding the overlapping between the landscape driving forces (natural and cultural) as well as achieving the goals of the related research. This new approach can facilitate a better understanding of landscape change and help researchers and planners identify and address the key issues related to sustainable landscape management by developing more effective policies and management strategies.

The strategic design process, characterized by analysis, synthesis and evaluation, is applied to address the socio-ecological and spatial challenges of the Neckar river valley. The findings highlight the potential of strategic design to create resilient and sustainable landscapes by combining scientific analysis and imaginative problem-solving. The case study exemplifies the value of strategic design in landscape architecture and offers insights for future landscape management.
Establishing the potential for the application of digital storytelling to support Chinese industrial heritage
Authors: Bian Xin , Brown Andre 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
Chinese industrial heritage is the materialized carrier and historical witness of the evolution of urban spatial structure and industrial development. As an inseparable part of cultural heritage, it has rich historical, social, economic, scientific, technological, and aesthetic value. However, industrial heritage as a value is not suffi ciently acknowledged in the Chinese society. The factories, their activity, and their historical evolution are often disconnected and isolated from the daily life of the cities, being quite an unknown aspect for most citizens. In addition, due to the acceleration of urbanization, many industrial heritages in cities have disappeared. China has spent two decades promoting sustainable development of its industrial heritage, but there is still a lack of knowledge on how to promote sustainable development of industrial heritage through digital education. Based on these findings the paper discusses our research that promotes sustainable development aspects of industrial heritage, and our subsequent work has particularly focussed on associated landscape recovery. It does so by focussing on the particular highly valued heritage case of the Anshan Steel production site in China, and the environmental consequences of the Dagushan Open mine on the landscape. The paper ends with a critical reflection on how a digital tool can help to shape industrial heritage education, appreciation and involvement, and hence foster sustainable development processes.
Revised Bloom’s Taxonomy in a Principles of Economics Textbook
Authors: Metzgar Matthew 
Published: November 2023

Abstract

Introduction: Among the contemporary models developed, the updated Bloom’s taxonomy has become the most widely used cognitive process model for gauging learning questions. This model emphasizes the cognitive levels starting from remembering information and progresses to advanced levels such as producing knowledge. Even though students use a variety of strategies to synthesize information and learn, there is an urgent need for teachers to adopt better pedagogies to facilitate meaningful learning. Adams (2015) established that Bloom’s taxonomy places emphasis on student’s ability to acquire prior knowledge before interpreting or applying it into a real-world scenario. It is of interest then to determine the Bloom’s levels in principles of economics textbooks.

Methods: This study utilized qualitative research to determine whether the aspects of Bloom’s revised taxonomy were utilized in end of chapter questions. The questions at the end of the chapters of the “Principles of Economics” by Gregory Mankiw (2021) were classified based on Bloom’s revised taxonomy.

Results: The study revealed that most of the questions utilized the apply level of Bloom’s cognitive domain. There were few questions regarding evaluation or creating.

Discussion: Faculty need to be aware of the different Bloom’s levels available to them and potentially focus more on the higher levels of Bloom’s revised taxonomy.

Limitations: One limitation is that only the leading Principles of Economics textbook was surveyed. Other textbooks may produce different results.

Conclusions: The leading Principles of Economics textbook had many end-of-chapter questions at the apply level of the revised Bloom’s taxonomy. There may be opportunities to develop more questions at the higher levels of the revised Bloom’s taxonomy.
Investigating the Relationships between Obsessive Compulsive Symptoms (OCS) and Depression Symptoms and Intolerance of Uncertainty in Turkish Adolescents during Covid-19
Authors: Şimşek Mustafa Kerim 
Published: November 2023

Abstract

Introduction:This study aims at examining the direct and indirect mediating role of the intolerance of uncertainty (IU) variable in the relationship between COVID-19-induced OCS and depression in a Turkish adolescent sample.

Methods:
The sample consists of 427 people (248 females, 179 males) between the ages of 14-18, living in Turkey and selected by convenient sampling method. The data were collected through the COVID-19 Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) Scale, Depression, Stress and Anxiety Scale (DASS-21) and Intolerance of Uncertainty Index-A for Children (IUI-A-C).

Results: The findings show that COVID-19-induced OCS have strong predictive effects on depression symptoms. The findings also revealed that IU directly and indirectly mediates the relationship between COVID-19 OCD and depression symptoms, as well as its negative predictive effect for depression symptoms.

Discussion: It can be said that OCS caused by COVID-19 trigger depressive symptoms in adolescents. In addition, it can be thought that IU, with its mediator effect, may play a triggering role in the emergence of COVID-induced OCS. Another research finding is that IU may be an important transdiagnostic construct for depressive symptoms.

Limitations: The current study has also some limitations. First, the study was carried out as a cross-sectional study. The fact that the sample group is non-clinical and a clinical group is not included can be considered as second delimitation. Third, the current study just used scales to evaluate the students’ self-report. At this point, a different perspective can be developed by taking the opinions of the parents.

Conclusions: The results show that COVID-19-induced OCS increase depressive symptoms in Turkish adolescents and IU has a mediating effect in this relationship. In addition, the results provide important data for the treatment of mental symptoms related to the pandemic.
A Framework for Implementing Positive Learner Discipline in Public Secondary Schools from the Context of the Mpumalanga Province
Authors: Ndlovu Mkhumbulo , Schlebusch Gawie , Makola Solomon 
Published: November 2023

Abstract

Introduction: Learner indiscipline has emerged as a global cause for concern for educators and parents in the 21st century. This study sought to develop a framework for the successful implementation of positive discipline. The study sought to provide answers revolving around the contributing factors towards learner indiscipline, the effects of indiscipline on teaching and learning, educators’ perceptions on positive discipline, factors leading to the ineffective implementation of positive discipline and the constituents of an effective framework for implementing positive discipline.

Methods: The study adopted a qualitative approach. Districts were identified utilising convenience sampling, while participants were sampled purposively. Data collection comprised semi-structured interviews and document analysis. Six schools from two districts in the Mpumalanga Province were selected as the study sample. The sample comprised twenty-four participants, including principals, class teachers, Life Orientation teachers, and chairpersons of School Governing Bodies from each school. Thematic content analysis was used to analyse the data and present the findings.

Results: The findings revealed that learner indiscipline is affected by several contributing factors such as family situation, community setting, human rights, peer pressure, educators, and learners themselves. Lack of stakeholder engagement, absence of training, overemphasis on learners’ rights and conditioning of educators and parents on corporal punishment are the factors that have led to the ineffective implementation of positive discipline.

Discussion:To ensure the implementation of positive discipline is successful, a framework should support a multi-stakeholder consideration to engagement. Ubuntu values should be incorporated in re-packaging the positive discipline toolkit so that it suits the local context.

Limitations: Only two education districts in one province of South Africa formed part of the study.

Conclusions: Educators are to adopt a revised curriculum that accommodates positive discipline and Ubuntu values in related subjects taught in school. Effective implementation requires regular monitoring, evaluation and reviewing of the positive discipline approach. The study proposed an Afrocentric framework for the implementation of positive discipline.
Proofs, generalizations and analogs of Menon’s identity: a survey
Authors: Tóth László 
Published: November 2023

AbstractMenon’s identity states that for every positive integer n one has ∑ (a − 1, n) = φ (n)τ(n), where a runs through a reduced residue system (mod n), (a − 1, n) stands for the greatest common divisor of a − 1 and n, φ(n) is Euler’s totient function, and τ(n) is the number of divisors of n. Menon’s identity has been the subject of many research papers, also in the last years. We present detailed, self contained proofs of this identity by using different methods, and point out those that we could not identify in the literature. We survey the generalizations and analogs, and overview the results and proofs given by Menon in his original paper. Some historical remarks and an updated list of references are included as well.
Nostalgia and Creative Urge as Double-Edged Swords in the (Auto)Biographical Writings of Rose Gollup-Cohen
Authors: Rabinovich Irina 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
While some Jewish immigrant autobiographies have received broad critical attention, a few important autobiographical endeavours have been underrepresented or almost forgotten. Autobiographies written by Jewish female writers who immigrated to America from Russia, Poland, or Galicia often draw a bifurcated picture of their struggles in callous New York sweatshops, or, on the contrary, they exalt the Jews’ notable success while blending in the American melting pot. Scarce studies, however, have been devoted to the dislocation and uprootedness of female immigrants and to the nostalgic feelings they have experienced during their absorption into American reality. This paper intends to resuscitate the forgotten voice of a Jewish immigrant female writer, Rose Gollup-Cohen. Moreover, using primarily psychoanalytical methodology and a feminist theory, the paper focuses on the nostalgic feelings that immigrants reverted to. Finally, it deals with both the therapeutic and the destructive powers of compulsive writing and shows how the writing process assists an immigrant writer when coping with distress experienced in her new homeland, but, on the other hand, it also demonstrates how compulsive writing may lead to obsessive behaviours, resulting in losing awareness of one’s surroundings, neglecting one’s family, and even to depression and suicide.
Myths, Science, and Literature – Different Fields, the Same Essence
Authors: Mihály Vilma-Irén 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
The present study aims at analysing the relationship and establishing the similarities between ancient Eastern myths, literature, and today’s leading scientific views such as quantum physics. In ancient times, the mythic worldview was the only one being widely accepted, a dominancy that lasted up into, roughly put, the mid-nineteenth century, when most sciences as known today started to flourish and overtook the place of mythology, invalidating it. Nowadays, however, ancient myths and modern sciences have begun getting closer to each other and, at a deep insight, one may discover that they reveal the same truth. Thus, the paper shall discuss and compare ancient Buddhist texts with leading quantum theories and literary works by Béla Hamvas and Sándor Weöres that facilitate the comprehension of the essence.1
Single-Parent Families in Villages and Towns of the Autonomous Province of Vojvodina: A Sociological Study
Authors: Novakov Marina 
Published: November 2023

Summary
Single-parent families have become increasingly prevalent in modern times, with approximately one in five children being raised in such households in the Republic of Serbia. The reasons behind the emergence of single-parent families have changed throughout history, and society has treated these families differently. Divorces occur more frequently in modern living conditions, and extramarital births are not as rare as they were in the past. This paper presents the results of an empirical study conducted in the AP Vojvodina on a sample of 200 single-parent families. The focus is on the analysis of the financial status of single-parent families, intergenerational relationships, parenting practices, and the potential for forming new, recombined families. The conclusion is that financial hardship is a significant issue for these families, with no significant difference in their status between rural and urban areas.
Expert knowledge-based peak current mode control of electrosurgical generators for improved output power regulation
Authors: Rafiq Muhammad Mohsin , Ibeas Asier , Ullah Nasim 
Published: November 2023

AbstractElectrosurgical generators (ESG) are widely used in medical procedures to cut and coagulate tissue. Accurate control of the output power is crucial for surgical success, but can be challenging to achieve. In this paper, a novel expert knowledge-based peak current mode controller (EK-PCMC) is proposed to regulate the output power of an ESG. The EK-PCMC leverages expert knowledge to adapt to changes in tissue impedance during surgical procedures. We compared the performance of the EK-PCMC with the classical peak current mode controller (PCMC) and fuzzy PID controller. The results demonstrate that the EK-PCMC significantly outperformed the PCMC, reducing the integral square error (ISE) and integral absolute error (IAE) by a factor of 3.88 and 4.86, respectively. In addition, the EK-PCMC outperformed the fuzzy PID controller in terms of transient response and steady-state performance. Our study highlights the effectiveness of the proposed EK-PCMC in improving the regulation of the output power of an ESG and improving surgical outcomes.
