Published: April 2023

A generalized migration of the consumers to digital channels was observed during the COVID-19 pandemic situation. In this context, the purpose of the research was to analyze the online options the consumer of religious services had and the way Church adapted its communication at the new circumstances. Questions regarding the intensity of communication, posts’ type or frequency, and reactions were investigated through a longitudinal retrospective study focused on Facebook platform. More than 6,150 posts and 1.6 million reactions were included. Distinctive profiles were observed: monasteries vs. urban parishes vs. rural ones. The study suggests that the pattern of consumers’ reactions was influenced by the type of the posts. The impact that online messages have, advocates for a professional approach or support in communication. The results may serve as informational input for a future unitary communication strategy of religious entities.

THE ROLE OF SELF-ESTEEM IN THE BUYING DECISION PROCESS. A THEORETICAL APPROACH
Authors: BEJAN Brîndușa Mariana 
Published: April 2023

Within the consumer behaviour literature, there are few studies in the consumer behaviour literature dealing with the relationship between consumer self-esteem and its role in the buying decision process. This paper explores the influence of self-esteem throughout the five stages of the consumer buying decision process. The first aspect for consideration is getting a clear picture of the definition and dimensions of self-esteem. The second element of the study concerns the five stages of the decision-making process, with special focus on how the process takes place depending on the level of self-esteem. The results show that impulse purchasers have more often than not a low level of self-esteem and do not go through the stages of the decision-making process in the usual way. With respect to managerial implications, the study indicates that organizations have to pay more attention to customer self-esteem when making customer segmentation, as, at the moment, the focus is only on demographic differences (age, gender, background, education) which do not always provide sufficient information. The evidence shows that self-esteem plays an increasing role in explaining consumer behaviour and sheds light on how individuals make decisions which mould their existence.

Urban Environmental Acupuncture for Improving the Sustainability of Dense City Areas – Polish Experiences from the SALUTE4CE Project
Authors: Stangel Michał 
Published: April 2023

Abstract
The idea of urban environmental acupuncture postulates, that in areas with no space available for green spaces, sustainability and climate resistance can be improved by small green spots in key locations. The project SALUTE4CE established pilot environmental acupuncture strategies in Central-European cities. The author was responsible for elaborating an Action Plan for the functional area of Chorzów, Ruda Śląska and Świętochłowice, Poland. The project aimed at finding spots with potential outcomes in terms of sustainability, reducing urban heat islands and improving comfort and quality of spaces, with nature based solutions: from planting climate resistant vegetation and restoring biodiversity, through improving local retention, to green roofs or vertical walls. The concept assumes, that acting in many small places can bring synergic effects and contribute to urban regeneration. Four pilot spots have been constructed so far, and other interventions shall be realized in the coming years. So far the project results have been disseminated in project documents and reports. This paper aims at a summary of project experiences and perspectives in regard to participating Polish cities.
Dynamic Replacement: The Influence of Pounder Diameter and Ground Conditions on Shape and Diameter of the Columns
Authors: Kwiecień Sławomir , Kowalska Magdalena 
Published: April 2023

Abstract
Dynamic replacement (DR) is a ground improvement technique that has been used now for almost 50 years. During the formation of a DR column a crater is created which is then filled with a coarse material and compacted again. The length, diameter and shape of such a column cannot be observed directly, which makes the design and execution more troublesome. In the article presented are the dimensions and shapes of 18 columns from eight different test fields. They were formed by means of pounders of various masses (9 or 11.5 Mg) and dimensions (1.00 or 1.05 m in diameter, 1.8 or 2.0 m in height). Based on the observations and measurements, it was concluded that the shape and diameter of a DR column is influenced by the parameters of the soft soil that is supposed to be improved (its thickness, physical state and location in the profile), as well as by the diameter of the pounder. It was revealed that, as the length of the columns increased, the column shapes changed from: a cylinder, through a truncated cone, a barrel to an asymmetric barrel. The diameters of all of the columns were 1.4–2.8 times larger than the diameters of the used pounders and the largest values were noted along the depth of the weakest layer. The presented results may be useful to the profession. When the thickness of the weak soil, its type and state are known and the technological parameters are similar to the ones presented in this paper, it is possible to predict the shape and diameter of the columns depending on the diameter of the pounder.
Verification of the Weather Research and Forecasting Model (WRF) for the Domain of Silesian Voivodeship and Upper Silesia Metropolitan Region
Authors: Bronder Joachim , Fudała Janina 
Published: April 2023

Abstract
The paper presents the analysis of the statistical errors of the meteorological parameters predicted by the WRF (Weather Research and Forecasting) model. The model is used for forecasting air pollution in the Silesian Voivodeship with an accuracy of about 70-80%. Thus, the main idea of the research was assessing to what extent the error in the forecast of meteorological parameters affects the error of the air quality forecast, which can be evaluated using the system InfoSMOG – MED for the inhabitants of the Silesian Voivodeship at www.slaskiesmogstop. It was also investigated how the reduction of the mesh size of the forecast of meteorological parameters affects the error of the forecast of these parameters, which was necessary for the next project SMART. The research was carried out for 3 computational domains: Poland, Silesian Voivodeship and Upper Silesia Metropolitan Region, each with a different grid resolution. The predicted temperature and wind speed data were compared with the measured data from the Polish synoptic stations and the stations of the METAR airports meteorological shield located in the respective domains. In addition, the error of the predicted parameters was investigated in the grid where the climatological station is located in the Śląskie Planetarium in Chorzów.
Numerical Analysis of the Impact of the Use of Personal Protective Equipment on the Face in the Process of Pollutants Spreading Emitted During Breathing
Authors: Bulińska Anna , Kocik Stanisław , Buliński Zbigniew 
Published: April 2023

Abstract
The study presents the results of a numerical analysis of the effectiveness of the use of personal protective equipment of various designs on the spread of pollutants marked with CO2 emitted during human breathing. In the study of 3D geometry the upper part of the human torso and head was developed. The simulated person was supplied with different personal protective equipment covering the human face (PPE). Two types of face shields worn at a different distance from the face and one fabric face mask was analysed. The reference geometry with no personal protective equipment was also analysed. Transient calculation with full breathing model including breath-in and breath-out and species transport were simulated. The results showed that different PPE generates different airflow patterns in the vicinity of the human face. The most efficient in reducing infection risk is by wearing a face mask or face shields at a small distance from the face, as they most effectively reduce CO2 concentration in the surrounding air. However, they also increase the re-inhalation risk of high CO2 concentration which affects human well-being.

Published: April 2023

This study presents in-orbit demonstrations of a deep learning attitude sensor (DLAS) aboard the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) small-satellite, Rapid Innovative Payload Demonstration Satellite 1. The DLAS is a spaceborne component that consists of star trackers, Earth cameras, and onboard computers. We propose a novel attitude determination method that uses a small camera and image recognition algorithm on board the DLAS to achieve three-axis attitude determination with minimal weight and volume. The DLAS mission further includes a demonstration of a low-cost high-performance star tracker that integrates consumer products. The development of the DLAS began in 2016 when it was adopted as the theme of the JAXA Innovative Satellite Technology Demonstration program. It was launched into a sun-synchronous orbit at an altitude of 500 km in January 2019 for approximately one year. This paper describes the results obtained from the DLAS operation and its future applications. The DLAS demonstrated an Earth camera image identification accuracy of more than 70%. Moreover, the obtained attitude determination accuracy was approximately 2.8 deg for the Earth camera and approximately 14 arcs for the star trackers. The technologies developed in the DLAS have been implemented in a subsequent microsatellite (HIBARI) of the Tokyo Institute of Technology.

Published: April 2023

The flexible thermal protection system (FTPS) on NASA’s low-Earth-orbit flight test of an inflatable decelerator vehicle was instrumented with thermocouples to measure the in-depth thermal response during entry into Earth’s atmosphere. Accurate flight temperature measurements are critical for verifying vehicle performance during the flight test and reducing uncertainties in the thermal models, but the deployable nature of inflatable decelerator technology presents challenges. The thermocouples need to be compactable, cannot damage the FTPS or the inflatable structure, and need to be able to withstand high temperatures and large thermal gradients. The present paper details the arcjet testing that was performed to examine the potential error sources associated with instrumenting NASA’s FTPS with different thermocouple Types (Type K versus Type N), wire gauges (30 versus 28 American wire gauge), insulations (glass versus ceramic), and barriers (mica versus no mica). Several error sources were identified, including 1) conductive deposits on the thermocouple insulation electrically shorting the thermocouple leads; 2) melting of the glass thermocouple insulation, allowing for electrical shorting of the thermocouple leads; 3) thermocouple leads melting, resulting in loss of signal; and 4) oxidation of the positive thermocouple lead (known as green rot), generating a drift in the measured output. A mica tape wrap around each individual thermocouple lead was successfully used to mitigate the first error source, and switching to ceramic insulation eliminated the second error source. The third and fourth error sources were examined by exploring the effect of the thermocouple type and wire gauge. Thermocouple solutions that minimize the potential error sources at each layer in the FTPS are presented. Finally, the arcjet test results are compared to the previously reported ground-based tube furnace test results, and their applicability to the flight environment is discussed.

Published: April 2023

Introducción. El aclaramiento de lactato se ha propuesto como factor pronóstico para la estancia y la mortalidad hospitalaria, en casos de sepsis, reanimación cardiopulmonar, quemaduras, cirugía cardiaca y trauma. No existen análisis específicos para pacientes con trauma penetrante.
Objetivo. Determinar la utilidad del aclaramiento de lactato como factor predictor de estancia y mortalidad en pacientes con traumatismo penetrante.
Métodos. Se hizo una revisión bibliográfica sistemática de estudios clínicos en los cuales se determina el papel del aclaramiento de lactato para predecir la muerte y la estancia hospitalaria en dicho grupo de pacientes.

Resultados. El valor del aclaramiento de lactato en pacientes traumatizados no está estandarizado. Existe heterogeneidad en las poblaciones incluidas en los estudios y en las intervenciones terapéuticas. El lactato persistentemente elevado parece aumentar la mortalidad y la estancia hospitalaria en esta población.
Conclusión. Es necesario hacer estudios prospectivos con definiciones y tratamientos estandarizados para evaluar la asociación entre aclaramiento de lactato, mortalidad y estancia hospitalaria en casos de trauma penetrante.

Authors: Osorio Carlos , Fernández Alberto , Ensuncho César , Redondo Katherine , Herrera Francisco 
Published: April 2023

Introducción. La citología obtenida mediante aspiración con aguja fina (cACAF) y la biopsia por congelación, se consideran actualmente pilares en el diagnóstico de las enfermedades nodulares de la glándula tiroides. El objetivo del presente estudio fue comparar su rendimiento en el diagnóstico de las neoplasias malignas de la glándula tiroides en la E.S.E. Hospital Universitario del Caribe.
Materiales y métodos. En forma prospectiva, entre abril de 2014 y junio de 2015, se compararon los resultados de cada una de las citologías y biopsias obtenidas por un radiólogo y un cirujano de cuello con los del estudio anatomo-patológico. Se calcularon la sensibilidad, la especificidad, el valor predictivo positivo, el valor predictivo negativo, la precisión diagnóstica, y la frecuencia de falsos positivos y falsos negativos. Se utilizó el índice kappa de concordancia para comparar el rendimiento de las citologías y las biopsias.
Resultados. La población de estudio estuvo conformada por 85 pacientes, 92,9 % mujeres, con una edad promedio de 45,3 ± 14,7 años. Los resultados obtenidos para la citología obtenida mediante aspiración con aguja fina y la biopsia por congelación, respectivamente, fueron: sensibilidad, 80,0 % y 90,0 %; especificidad, 98,7 % y 100,0 %; valor predictivo positivo, 88,9 % y 100,0 %; valor predictivo negativo, 97,4 % y 98,7 %; precisión diagnóstica, 96,5 % y 98,8 %; porcentaje de falsos positivos, 1,2 % y 0,0 %, y porcentaje de falsos negativos, 2,4 % y 1,2 %; el índice kappa de concordancia fue de 0,952.
Conclusiones. La cACAF y la biopsia por congelación mostraron un índice de concordancia de 0,952 en el diagnóstico de las neoplasias malignas de la glándula tiroides. Dichos resultados no sugieren el uso rutinario de la biopsia por congelación; sin embargo, sí sugieren su implementación en el manejo intraoperatorio de los pacientes con diagnósticos citológicos “sospechosos de malignidad”, para disminuir la frecuencia de falsos positivos.

Published: April 2023

In the Philippines, the lack of access to education of the youth is seen as one of the salient concerns of the economy, hence, affects the socio-economic development of the country. This problem occurs from the poor implementation of policies and programs and lack of government support and initiatives which evidently are the root causes of the slow improvement of the Philippine education system. This study aims to assess the implementation of Republic Act 7687 or the act that institutionalizes the science and technology scholarship in the country in relation to the actual experiences of the UPLB undergraduate DOST scholars. In support to this, the actors involved in the policy implementation including the DOST-SEI and UPLB-OUR were also considered in this study. The specific issues and challenges towards the DOST scholarships were also discussed in this paper to help in improving the effectiveness of the Republic Act 7687 as a policy. To achieve the objectives of the study, the researchers employed both survey and structured interview research designs. Results showed that, in general, the student respondents are satisfied with how RA 7687 is being implemented at UPLB. However, the long and stringent process of the university’s registration and late issuance of Form 5 and delay in the release of scholars’ stipend/allowance became the major concerns of the respondents. Thus, researchers provided specific recommendations for DOST-SEI and UPLB-OUR to improve their system and process, specifically in managing the RA 7687 or the DOST Scholarship Program.

Authors: Studinski Volodymyr 
Published: April 2023

Formulation of the problem. A fairy tale as a folk-narrative or literary work about fictional events, fictional persons, events with the participation of fantastic persons [9, p. 71], reveals in its text the peculiarities of mentality and folk thinking in the field of economic activity of the people in general and representatives of this people in particular. The Ukrainian fairy tale builds a special philosophical attitude to labor on earth. The study of a folk tale provides an opportunity to understand the peculiarities of the economic mentality of a single nation. The subject of research there is a folk tale as an oral work that reflects the mentality of the nation, in particular the economic component of the mentality itself. The purpose of this study is a consideration of a folk tale, which in its text reveals aspects of the economic mentality of the people, as well as the formation of a person's economic outlook from early childhood. In addition, to find out the peculiarities of the national formation of the economic outlook of the individual. The methodological basis research is a comparative, historical, analytical, comparative and statistical method. Research results. consider the issue of the formation of the economic mentality of the representatives of the nation. In particular, we are talking about the Ukrainian nation. In particular, attention was paid to the attitude of Ukrainians to the land as a resource for production and labor on the land. Field of application. The results of the article can be used in higher education institutions, research institutions, students, graduate students, teachers. Conclusions. A consideration of a folk tale, in particular a Ukrainian one, reveals the specificity of the attitude of the people in general and the individual in particular to work, to natural resources used in the economic process. It is also obvious that Ukrainian fairy tales are dominated by the cult of the land and labor on the land, that this resource is the main source of wealth. Ukrainians appears in these texts as a farming nation. At the same time, in the moral and ethical aspect, work is revealed as a human virtue, and idleness is condemned. In principle, a folk tale makes it clear how the economic worldview of an individual and a nation is formed.
