Published: May 2023

Relevance. Self-development is a recognized existential value of the modern personality. This process requires taking into account many factors, including the influence of motivation and discipline. However, people do not fully realize the difference between them within the framework of self-development, which affects its effectiveness.
The purpose of this work is to study the role of motivation and discipline in personal self-development, as well as a comparative assessment of their contribution to the formation of the meaningfulness of self-development of a person’s personality.
Research methods: analysis of scientific literature from the field of psychology, pedagogy and sociology, observation, comparative analysis.
Results. The study showed that many consider the contribution of motivation to the process of personal self-development more significant than discipline. The authors consider disciplined self-development to be more rational and effective for achieving success in any activity and self-development.

The purpose of the study. To assess the relationship between Internet addictive behavior and clip thinking in schoolchildren
Materials and methods. 59 students of both sexes of the 8th grade of secondary school № 84 of Krasnoyarsk took part in the study. A modified test based on the J.S. Bruner questionnaire was used to diagnose the clip type of thinking. The level of Internet addiction was assessed using the CIAS scale.
Results. A pronounced and stable pattern of Internet addictive behavior on the CIAS scale was detected in 15,2% of the surveyed schoolchildren, among whom there were three times more girls compared to boys. The frequency of gambling addiction was higher in boys than in girls, while the frequency of dependence on social networks was 2 times higher among girls. The clip type of thinking was revealed in a third of the surveyed schoolchildren with the same frequency among both boys and girls. At the same time, persons with a theoretical type of thinking were more common among girls, and with a creative type of thinking – among boys. In Internet-addicted girls and boys, clip-type thinking was detected in half of the subjects in both groups.
Conclusion. Among the identified students with the clip type of thinking, 50% belonged to people with Internet addictive behavior.

Published: May 2023

The article discusses the use of podcasts in teaching a foreign language to high school students. The dynamism of the development of modern foreign language education has led to the expansion of the range of foreign languages studied at school. Chinese is becoming one of the most popular languages today. It is studied in schools and universities mostly as a second foreign language. Due to its specificity, it requires the development of integrated approaches to its study, to which the works of Yu.E. Arekeeva, K.V. Volkov, N.A. Demina, I.V. Kochergin, etc. are devoted.
The study of the methodology of teaching Chinese in such areas of speech activity as speaking and listening is relevant nowadays.
The problem of the study is the choice of an algorithm for working with podcasts. The purpose is to consider the potential of podcasts in the development of oral speech activities when teaching Chinese in high school and to determine the algorithm for working with them. The study was conducted on the basis of authentic podcasts in Chinese. The used methods of research, such as theoretical analysis of literature, study of normative documents, observation of the educational process, comparative analysis, led to the following results: the theoretical foundations of the use of podcasts are described; the concepts of “podcast” and its didactic functions are defined; practical aspects of the development of oral speech activities in teaching Chinese are proposed; an algorithm for working with a podcast in a Chinese language lesson is given. The authors concluded the effectiveness of the use of podcasts in teaching Chinese.

Published: May 2023

The thinkers of the era of the Islamic Pedagogical Renaissance created many works in which the problems of preparing a teacher and mentor were revealed. According to the thinkers of the past, a teacher is an educated, cultured person, a wise mentor, a creator of the child’s personality. These ideas are still relevant today. A modern teacher and mentor needs to increase an active life position, improve personal and professional qualities, develop a creative component, and form a personal brand. In order to form these competencies, it is proposed to use an innovative pedagogical workshop that contributes to the development of the teacher’s and mentor’s creative potential through the use of managerial and educational resources that meets the modern challenges of the education system.
The purpose of the article is a historical and pedagogical analysis of the views on the problem of a teacher and mentor of the era of the Islamic pedagogical Renaissance and their actualization for modern education.
Materials and methods. The sources were the studies of Arab, Persian scientists, as well as the published works of domestic and foreign authors who considered certain problems of the pedagogy of medieval Islam and modernity.
Methods of historical and pedagogical research: comparative - historical monographic, biographical, problem-chronological. In addition, such general scientific theoretical (analysis, synthesis, systematization, classification, generalization, comparison, inductive and deductive methods) and bibliographic methods (annotation, reviewing, citation, abstraction, etc.).
Results. Тhe pedagogical ideas of the thinkers of the era of the Islamic pedagogical Renaissance and modernity are systematized; organizational and pedagogical opportunities for the development of a personal brand of a modern teacher through the use of innovative creative workshops, territory of the Technopark were identified; the criteria and indicators of the effectiveness of the pedagogical activity of a teacher-mentor in modern educational practice are determined.
The research materials can be used in the practice of the school by teachers and class teachers, in the system of higher professional education by students, undergraduates, graduate students and teachers of humanitarian secular and Muslim universities and colleges, practitioners interested in the history of Islamic pedagogy and education.
DEVELOPING CHINESE STUDENTS’ COMMUNICATION SKILLS THROUGH SYNCHRONOUS DISTANCE INTERPRETING COURSE
Authors: Vasina Ekaterina A. 
Published: May 2023

Future of higher education is closely connected with degree programs in distance mode as it guarantees security and convenience for overseas students. With Chinese-Russian relations becoming closer, more Chinese students are majoring in translation and interpreting studies at Russian universities while staying in China, so universities should provide well-organized online interpreting classes to build professional interpreting competences.
Purpose. This paper aims to assess possibility of developing basic communication competence of future interpreters from China through all-digital synchronous interpreting course in Russian educational environment.
Methodology. The research was carried out among Master’s degree Chinese students and their trainers at Lomonosov Moscow State University, overall number of participants was 58. The set of tools included role playing performance evaluation, open discussion, assessment scales, questionnaires and interviews.
Results. The study showed that communication skills of future Chinese interpreters can be sufficiently developed in synchronous all-digital interpreting course if good educational environment is provided. The results of the cross-semester examination as well as the questionnaire data confirm that interpreting classes in distance synchronous mode at Moscow State University promote developing of communication competence of Chinese major degree students. For this purpose, pedagogical technologies of the course should include online interactive tasks, role play activities, small-size group rooms, chats via video platforms as well as use of various digital translation technologies. The results of the survey also showed that open online discussions with Russian students have a positive impact on the development of Chinese students’ communication skills. The study also reveals that synchronous distance learning is preferable for Chinese students in turbulent periods of world history (epidemics, wars) as it guarantees sustainability and continuality of educational process.
Practical implications. The results of the study can be applied in optimizing the organization process in professional higher education both in Russia and abroad. Under certain circumstances synchronous distance training can be the only choice for international higher education programs.

Authors: Rybakov Alexander V. , Lezhnina Larisa V. 
Published: May 2023

The presented article is devoted to a comparative retrospective analysis of parental attitudes to children among residents and non-residents of nursing homes. The purpose of the study is to determine the characteristics of parental attitude to children among residents of nursing homes. The hypothesis of the study is the assumption of a connection between the residence of an elderly person in nursing home with the peculiarities of parental relations in the past.
Parental attitude to children in the past was studied using the modified methodology “Questionnaire of parental attitude” by A.Ya. Varga and V.V. Stolin.
Factor analysis of the empirical data obtained allowed us to conclude about the structural differences in the factors that determine the parental attitude. In the sample of non-residents, the variable “Authoritarian hypersocialization” is included in one of the factors, which is not observed in the sample of residents of nursing homes.

Introduction and purpose
The role of virtual reality (VR) is increasingly being discussed not only in the context of entertainment, but also in the medical field. Recently, there has been a growing number of literature analyzing its effect on reducing pain and anxiety, which are common problems of pediatric patients. These feelings can negatively affect their psyche, health recovery, but also doctor-patient cooperation and avoidance of treatment in the future.The purpose of this study is to analyze and summarize the potential of using virtual reality to reduce pain and anxiety in pediatric patients.
Material and methods
A literature review of 2015-2022 based on PubMed and Google Scholar.
Results
The literature reviewed shows the extensive use of virtual reality in the treatment of pain and anxiety in pediatric patients. VR is a good method for reducing perioperative anxiety, pain during wound care and pain as well as anxiety in invasive procedures. This method may not be beneficial in the treatment of acute pain and its role is uncertain during dental treatment. Disadvantages of this technique include the need for financial investment in equipment and trained staff. Patients may experience dizziness and motion sickness during its use. Another disadvantage is also that it does not provide a long-term analgesic effect.
Conclusion
There appears to be merit in using this technology as an adjunctive method to reduce pain and anxiety in pediatric patients. There is also a need for further research in this area and the development of appropriate therapeutic intervention for a specific age group and procedure in a well-defined process by a trained team.
Trends of infant vaccination timeliness and completion in selected urban slum communities in Ibadan, Southwestern Nigeria: A four-year review
Authors: Balogun Folusho Mubowale , Bamgboye Eniola Adetola , Orimadegun Adebola Emmanuel 
Published: May 2023

Background
Suboptimal infant vaccination is common in Nigeria and multiple interventions have been deployed to address the situation. Child health indicators are reported to be worse in urban slums compared with other urban areas, but urban data are usually not disaggregated to show these disparities. Examining the timeliness and completion of infant vaccination in urban slums is important to determine the effectiveness of existing interventions in improving infant vaccination among this vulnerable population. This study explored the trends of infant vaccination in selected urban slum communities in Ibadan, Southwest Nigeria between November 2014 and October 2018.

Methods
This was a cross sectional study where infant vaccination data were extracted from the immunization clinic records of six primary health care centers that were providing infant vaccination services for seven urban slum communities. Data was analyzed using descriptive statistics and Chi square test at α = 05.

Results
A total of 5,934 infants vaccination records were reviewed, 2,895 (48.8%) were for female infants and 3,002(50.6%) were from Muslim families. Overall, only 0.6% infants had both timely and complete vaccination during the four years under study. The highest number of infants with timely and complete vaccination were seen in 2015(12.2%) and least in 2018(2.9%). Regarding timeliness of the vaccines, BCG, was the least timely among the vaccines given at birth and the pentavalent and oral polio vaccines’ timeliness reduced as the age of the infants increased. Both yellow fever and measles vaccines were timelier than the pentavalent vaccines. Vaccines were most timely in 2016(31.3%) and least timely in 2018(12.1%). Those from Muslim families significantly had delayed and incomplete vaccinations compared with those from Chrisitan families (p = 0.026).

Conclusion
Infant vaccinations were significantly delayed and incomplete in the study communities during the years reviewed. More focused interventions are required to ensure optimal vaccination of the infants.

Résumé : Dean Zimmerman défend l’affirmation œcuménique selon laquelle il est possible que toutes les personnes humaines survivent à la mort biologique du corps quelle que soit la théorie plausible de l’identité personnelle adoptée. Dans cet article, je présente certains principes à propos de la survie qui sont pertinents pour n’importe quelle théorie plausible de l’identité personnelle et pertinents pour une survie qui nous intéresserait. Appliqués à certains cas particuliers d’êtres humains, ces principes rendent l’affirmation œcuménique soit fausse, soit difficile à croire rationnellement.

Not Everyone Will Get Out Alive:
On Dean Zimmerman's “Personal Identity and the Survival of Death”
Abstract: Dean Zimmerman defends the ecumenical claim that it is possible for all human persons to survive the biological death of the body regardless of the plausible theory of personal identity adopted. In this paper, I present some principles about survival that are relevant to any plausible theory of personal identity and relevant to any survival of interest. When applied to some particular cases of human beings, these principles make the ecumenical claim either false or difficult to believe rationally.

Postpartum Detection of Diastolic Dysfunction and Nondipping Blood Pressure Profile in Women With Preeclampsia
Authors: Sayed Marwa , Rashed Mariam , Abbas Ahmed M. , Youssef Amr , Abdel Ghany Mohamed 
Published: May 2023

Abstract

Background
Left ventricular diastolic dysfunction and nocturnal “nondipping” of blood pressure detected via ambulatory blood pressure monitoring are predictors of increased cardiovascular morbidity.

Methods
A prospective cohort study including normotensive women with a history of preeclampsia in their current pregnancy was conducted. All cases were subjected to 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring and 2-dimensional transthoracic echocardiography 3 months after delivery.

Results
This study included 128 women with a mean (SD) age of 28.6 (5.1) years and a mean (SD) basal blood pressure of 123.1 (6.4)/74.6 (5.9) mm Hg. Among the participants, 90 (70.3%) exhibited an ambulatory blood pressure monitoring profile illustrating nocturnal blood pressure “dipping” (the mean night to day time blood pressure ratio ≤ 0.9), whereas 38 (29.7%) were nondippers. Diastolic dysfunction (impaired left ventricular relaxation) was present in 28 nondippers (73.7%), whereas none of the dippers exhibited diastolic dysfunction. Women with severe preeclampsia were more frequently nondippers (35.5% vs 24.2%; P = .02) and experienced diastolic dysfunction (29% vs 15%; P = .01) than were those with mild preeclampsia. Severe preeclampsia (odds ratio [OR], 1.08; 95% CI, 1.05–10.56; P < .001) and history of recurrent preeclampsia (OR, 1.36; 95% CI, 1.3–4.26; P ≤ .001) were significant predictors for nondipping status and diastolic dysfunction (OR, 1.55; 95% CI, 1.1–2.2; and OR, 1.23; 95% CI, 1.2–2.2, respectively; P < .05).

Conclusion
Women with a history of preeclampsia were at higher risk for developing late cardiovascular events. The severity and recurrence of preeclampsia were significant predictors of both nondipping profile and diastolic dysfunction.

AbstractIncreased gut permeability is implicated in the initiation and extent of the cytokine inflammatory response associated with exertional heat stroke (EHS). The primary objective of this study was to determine if a five amino acid oral rehydration solution (5AAS), specifically designed for the protection of the gastrointestinal lining, would prolong time to EHS, maintain gut function and dampen the systemic inflammatory response (SIR) measured during EHS recovery. Male C57/BL6J mice instrumented with radiotelemetry were gavaged with 150 μL of 5AAS or H2O, and ≈12 h later were either exposed to an EHS protocol where mice exercised in a 37.5°C environmental chamber to a self‐limiting maximum core temperature (Tc,max) or performed the exercise control (EXC) protocol (25°C). 5AAS pretreatment attenuated hypothermia depth and length (p < 0.005), which are indicators of EHS severity during recovery, without any effect on physical performance or thermoregulatory responses in the heat as determined by percent body weight lost (≈9%), max speed (≈6 m/min), distance (≈700 m), time to Tc,max (≈160 min), thermal area (≈550°C∙min), and Tc,max (42.2°C). EHS groups treated with 5AAS showed a significant decrease in gut transepithelial conductance, decreased paracellular permeability, increased villus height, increased electrolyte absorption and changes in tight junction protein expression pattern suggestive of improved barrier integrity (p < 0.05). No differences were witnessed between EHS groups in acute phase response markers of liver, circulating SIR markers, or indicators of organ damage during recovery. These results suggest that a 5AAS improves Tc regulation during EHS recovery through maintaining mucosal function and integrity.
Shear wave ultrasound elastography of the biceps brachii can be used as a precise proxy for passive elbow torque in individuals with hemiparetic stroke

AbstractMuscle tissue is prone to changes in composition and architecture following stroke. Changes in muscle tissue of the extremities are thought to increase resistance to muscle elongation or joint torque under passive conditions. These effects likely compound neuromuscular impairments, exacerbating movement function. Unfortunately, conventional rehabilitation is devoid of precise measures and relies on subjective assessments of passive joint torques. Shear wave ultrasound elastography, a tool to measure muscle mechanical properties, may be readily available for use in the rehabilitation setting as a precise measure, albeit at the muscle‐tissue level. To support this postulation, we evaluated the criterion validity of shear wave ultrasound elastography of the biceps brachii; we investigated its relationship with a laboratory‐based criterion measure for quantifying elbow joint torque in individuals with moderate to severe chronic stroke. Additionally, we evaluated construct validity, with the specific sub‐type of hypothesis testing of known groups, by testing the difference between arms. Measurements were performed under passive conditions at seven positions spanning the arc of elbow joint flexion‐extension in both arms of nine individuals with hemiparetic stroke. Surface electromyography was utilized for threshold‐based confirmation of muscle quiescence. A moderate relationship between the shear wave velocity and elbow joint torque was identified, and both metrics were greater in the paretic arm. Data supports the progression toward a clinical application of shear wave ultrasound elastography in evaluating altered muscle mechanical properties in stroke, while acknowledging that undetectable muscle activation or hypertonicity may contribute to the measurement. Shear wave ultrasound elastography may augment the conventional method of manually testing joint mobility by providing a high‐resolution precise value. Tissue‐level measurement may also assist in identifying new therapeutic targets for patient‐specific impairment‐based interventions.
Double machine learning and automated confounder selection: A cautionary tale
Authors: Hünermund Paul , Louw Beyers , Caspi Itamar 
Published: May 2023

Abstract
Double machine learning (DML) has become an increasingly popular tool for automated variable selection in high-dimensional settings. Even though the ability to deal with a large number of potential covariates can render selection-on-observables assumptions more plausible, there is at the same time a growing risk that endogenous variables are included, which would lead to the violation of conditional independence. This article demonstrates that DML is very sensitive to the inclusion of only a few “bad controls” in the covariate space. The resulting bias varies with the nature of the theoretical causal model, which raises concerns about the feasibility of selecting control variables in a data-driven way.
