Languaging and conceptual understanding in engineering mathematics
Authors: Rinneheimo Kirsi-Maria , Suhonen Sami 
Published: June 2022

The ability to apply mathematical concepts and procedures in relevant contexts in engineering subjects sets the fundamental basis for the mathematics competencies in engineering education. Among the plethora of digital techniques and tools arises a question: Do the students gain a deep and conceptual enough understanding of mathematics that they are able to apply mathematical concepts in engineering studies? This paper introduces the use of languaging exercises in the engineering mathematics course ‘Differential Calculus’ during the spring semester 2020, at Tampere University of Applied Sciences, TAMK. In this study, the students’ conceptual understanding and learning of differential calculus is researched. In the learning process, the languaging method is used to deepen the conceptual understanding of the concepts of differential calculus. Pre-test/post-test setup was used to see the possible gain in conceptual understanding. During the course, students did online assignments, which included languaging exercises. Students described the concepts of differential calculus using natural language, pictures, or a combination of them. The students were also asked to fill in a self-evaluation form to collect their perception of their own knowledge of mathematical skills. Mid-term and final exams summarized the acquired knowledge. The study aimed to enhance the learning outcomes and to gain a deeper understanding of mathematical concepts by exploiting the languaging method.

Published: June 2022

Social media has positive and negative impacts on human life. Even though negative impacts have been identified, positive impacts are rarely studied in the literature. The identification of positive impacts will be useful for preventing health issues among social media users. Therefore, the study is intended to investigate the psychological well-being status of the social media population. The study used a cross-sectional design with a purposive sampling method. The analysis used structural equational modeling to answer the research question of the study. The results showed the psychological well-being of social media users is at normal levels with mild stress. The influencing factors influencing the finding are sex and education. Health promotion is fundamental to improving the outcomes and vice versa, decreasing the risk factors of mental disorders. Interventional studies are needed to prevent distress in the future.

Published: June 2022

Flood disasters bring a huge impact on human life, both physically and psychologically. Children are vulnerable groups who are at greater risk during and after a disaster. The most common psychological effect after a disaster is Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). The purpose of this study was to detect early PTSD in children who were victims of the flood disaster. This research applied a quantitative design with a cross-sectional approach. A total of 61 child victims were included in the study. The research was conducted in Jeneponto Regency which is one of the worst flood locations in South Sulawesi in 2019. The instrument used is the PTSD Checklist for DSM-5 (PCL-5), which consists of 20 items of questions. The study shows that children who experience PTSD are equal to 39.3% and did not experience PTSD as much as 60,7%. The incidence of PTSD increases in children a month after the disaster by experiencing symptoms of re-experiencing, avoidance, negative alterations in mood cognition, and hyperarousal. Age, gender, and exposure are also at risk for developing PTSD in children. It is recommended that healthcare professionals provide immediate treatment to the child victims.

John Caputo’s Radical Theology: God as Event
Authors: Сороколетов Никита Вадимович 
Published: June 2022

Статья представляет собой краткое введение в теологию американского философа и богослова Джона Капуто, который работает в пространстве постметафизического мышления. Основная задача статьи - познакомить русскоязычных читателей с ключевыми идеями Дж. Капуто, а также пригласить их к диалогу с современным континентальным богословием. В статье описывается интеллектуальный контекст, на который опирается Дж. Капуто: идеи позднего М. Хайдеггера и философии Ж. Деррида. Также в статье анализируется концепция «слабого Бога», предложенная Дж. Капуто. Основной акцент сделан на такой важной идее, характерной для постмодернистсткой теологии Дж. Капуто, как различие между именем и событием. Именно это различие позволяет Дж. Капуто помыслить «слабость Бога». В статье также рассматривается теопоэтика и гиперреализм - концепты, свойственные теологическим построениям Дж. Капуто. В заключении рассматривается возможная критика радикальной теологии Дж. Капуто, которую предлагает православный богослов Дэвид Бентли Харт. По утверждению Д. Харта, теологический проект Дж. Капуто представляет собой замаскированный метанарратив, стремящийся к насилию.
The article is a short introduction to the theology of an American philosopher and theologian John Caputo, who belongs to the domain of post-metaphysical thought. The main purpose of the article is to introduce Russian-speaking readers to Caputo’s key ideas and to invite them to a dialogue with the present-day Continental theology. The article considers the intellectual context J. Caputo relies on - Heidegger’s late ideas and J. Derrida’s philosophy. The Caputo’s concept of «weak God» is analyzed as well. The focus is given to such an important idea characteristic for Caputo’s postmodern theology as the difference between a name and an event. This difference is what allows Caputo to think of the «weakness of God». The article also deals with theopoetics and hyperrealism - the concepts special for Caputo’s theological constructions. The conclusion is devoted to discussing a possible criticism of Caputo’s radical theology, proposed by Eastern Orthodox theologian David Bentley Hart. Hart argues that Caputo’s theological project is a disguised metanarrative with a tendency to violence.

Published: June 2022

Berry fruits represent a valuable source of natural aroma and antioxidants for vinegars. The aim of this research was the evaluation of the
total polyphenol content (TPC), total anthocyanin content (TAC), and antioxidant properties (by ABTS and DPPH assay) of several vinegars
produced by an acetous fermentation process, using substrates that contain berry (raspberries, blueberries, blackberries) juice (40%; 60%) inoculated with acetous bacteria (0.5%; 1%). Experimental results indicated that blueberry vinegar samples obtained using 0.5% acetous bacteria and 60% berry juices led to the highest mean values for TPC, TAC, and levels of antioxidant activity, but all these variants had significantly the lowest values of acetic acid content.

ABSTRACT

Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) can cause side effects of gastric ulcers. Based on
previous research, it is known that pumpkin contains flavonoids which can protect the gastric
mucosa. The aim of this study was to determine the gastroprotective effect of ethanol extract of
Cucurbita moschata (Duch.) Poir fruit in male rats Wistar-induced by aspirin. The study used a
randomized matched posttest only control group design. Cucurbita moschata (Duch.) Poir fruit
extraction was carried out by ultrasonic method. A total of 24 rats were divided into 6 groups:
normal control (CMC Na 0,5%; ulcer control (CMC Na 0,5%); positive control (ranitidine HCl 10
mg/kg BW); treatment group (Cucurbita moschata (Duch.) Poir fruit ethanol extract at dose of
100, 200, and 400 mg/kg BW). Treatments lasted for 14 days. One hour after administering the test
solution on the 14th day, all rats were given 200 mg/kg BW of aspirin (except normal controls)
orally, then fasted for 12 hours. On the 15th day, all rats were sacrificed, dissected and their stomachs were taken. Gastric histology preparations were made with hematoxylin-eosin staining,
microscopically read, discussed the number and severity of ulcers. Both data were processed and
analyzed by Kruskal Wallis and Mann Whitney (95% confidence level). The results showed that the
administration of EEBLK doses of 100, 200, and 400 mg/kg BW resulted in a score of the number
and severity of ulcers that were lower significantly than of ulcer controls (p

Published: June 2022

Introduction.The article deals with the linguocultural units of value considering them as the main objects of cultural and cognitive analysis to obtain data for compiling nationally oriented lexicographic sources, namely, a nationally oriented linguistic and cultural dictionary for the Vietnamese who study Russian. The authors of the article argue that the implementation of a detailed analysis of value-marked elements that reflect cultural facts and realities, which are rooted in the national linguistic consciousness, is a recurrent theme in modern comparative lexicography. The scientific novelty and significance of the study are based on the practical application of its findings in the field of comparative lexicography, a successfully developing scientific area.Methodology and sources. The article focuses on a comparative study of phraseological units of Russian and Vietnamese linguocultures. The comparative study is carried out using interpretive analysis as well as analysis of definitions. There are used data from dictionaries of various types.Results and discussion.The key objects of cultural and cognitive analysis are linguocultural units reflecting the realities of culture and values of a particular nation. The material of the study allowed the authors to consider some characteristics of the conceptual division of the world and of its conceptualization with the assistance of language distinctive for both Russian and Vietnamese linguocultures. Thus, a comparative analysis of Russian and Vietnamese set phrases, which reflect the peculiarities of the national worldview, made it possible to draw conclusions about the existing national and cultural differences between Russians and Vietnamese, and, that is most importantly, about the existing of discrepancies in the attitude of Vietnamese and Russians to certain values - a circumstance, that must be taken into account in development of linguistic and cultural educational lexicography.Conclusion.The concept of nationally oriented educational lexicography as a special field in a number of other linguistic disciplines aims at fulfilling the tasks of acquiring foreign cultural awareness avoiding any possible interference. The importance of nationally oriented educational lexicography arises from the need to create such teaching aids that will most adequately facilitate the process of foreign language mastering. In our specific case, it will assist a Vietnamese to study the Russian language as a means of intercultural communication.
A Logical-Semantic Analysis of Predicates of Personal Taste in Assessments of Sensory Perception
Authors: Pavlukhina P. A. 
Published: June 2022

Introduction. The article offers a comparative analysis of relativism and conceptualism in semantic of PPTs, which will allow us to investigate the properties of PPTs based on the experience of the subject.Methodology and sources. A key role in the understanding of the truth value of utterances is played by D. Kaplan's two-dimensional semantics and D. Lewis' version of the semantics of possible worlds. These theories are expanded and supplemented in the modern semantics of taste, which are considered in this article on the example of the works of E.G. Bylinina, M. Glanzberg, D. Ninan, H. Pearson, T. Stephenson.Results and discussion. Author comes to the conclusion that these theories stand on the same ontological and semantic attitudes associated with subjective perception, which help to relativism and contextualism describe the phenomenon of faultless disagreement. However, relativism and contextualism have not been able to explain this puzzle. The author tried to determine the role of this phenomenon in the semantics of taste, for which the role of first-hand experience in the utterances of taste is considered at the article. It is noted that the requirement of first-hand experience is necessary in modern semantic theories of PPTs, because it seems to be the only ontologically justified requirement.Conclusion. The author comes to the conclusion that requirement of first-hand experience is not a necessary for semantic analysis of PPTs. For that, considering the different reading of individual terms at the end of the article allows us to come to the conclusion that statements of taste express propositional attitude.
Traditional Values in Analytical Perspectives of Sociology
Authors: Shcherbina A. V. 
Published: June 2022

Introduction.The relevance of the sociological analysis of traditional values is determined by the need to regulate the growing contradictions between them and human rights at the national and international levels. The scientific novelty consists in the fact that the article highlights analytical perspectives that reveal the relationship of continuity and transformation in the activities of a public subject, and identifies starting points for using the potential of a sociological understanding of traditional values in socio-cultural design.Methodology and sources.The empirical base of the analysis was made up of official documents of the Russian Federation, materials of the UN Human Rights Council, expert assessments, the results of surveys of the All-Russian Center for the Study of Public Opinion, materials of discussions in the Russian media. The methodology of the system approach, sociocultural analysis, social constructivism, the typological concept of cultural and historical tradition is used.Results and discussion.In the logic of socio–cultural analysis, traditional values are components of a traditional type of collective organization and a way of transmitting them in a two-part experience that is different from ideological indoctrination. Sociological reflection makes it possible to distinguish them from the values of “traditional society” as a passed stage of social evolution. The system paradigm in sociology conceptualizes the irreducible complexity of values: they are cultural objects, internalized by the individual, institutionalized in the social system. A social subject, through a value-based attitude to heritage, reflexively and constructively establishes cultural and historical traditions as the selected samples of its development are implemented in changing conditions. Fundamental human rights are ensured by access to the resources of their culture. The protection of human rights includes the strengthening of traditional institutions and cultural diversity as conditions for the harmony of intercivilizational and intra-social values. The manifestation of adherence to traditional values in the context of the crisis of globalization is due to the desire to reveal the pathological nature and to stop, through legal, military-political and ideological tools, technically achievable ways of remaking a person who have ceased to be subjected to criminal prosecution and unconditional moral condemnation.Conclusion.Actualization of meaningful samples of cultural and historical traditions in the socio-political discourse indicates directions for socio-cultural design and performs ideological mobilization tasks.
