Separation From Parents

Problem and Purpose. The article deals with the problem of the conflict in the family between spouses, which subsequently has a destructive relationship for children. Purpose ‒ to determine the joint influence of the separation of one of the parents and the child and family conflict on child maladjustment and deviation Analyzed, available in scientific research, the presence of conflicting data. So in a number of works it is argued that family conflict is a central predictor for the occurrence of deviant behavior in children. Several other studies demonstrate the effect of parent-child separation on childhood deviation. To eliminate these contradictions, a study was carried out, involving the study of the joint influence of the above factors on the deviant behavior of adolescents. As an empirical group, there were 89 children registered in connection with committed crimes (theft, fights, etc.) and their parents, who filled out a special questionnaire in the amount of 158 people. A statistically significant joint effect of two factors was found, which was differentiated (p <0.05). When a child and a parent are separated, adolescents have more pronounced negativism, verbal and physical aggression, and with a high level of family conflict, adolescents are characterized by a greater tendency to violate social norms and rules, a high propensity for addictive behavior and pronounced indirect aggression. The study made it possible to draw an important conclusion that both family conflict and separation from parents predetermine the child’s behavioral and emotional problems. At the same time, parental separation does not increase the adolescent’s deviant behavior if the level of family conflict is low.

This study aimed to investigate the perceived problems of strike action and deviant behavior in selected higher institutions in Ekiti State, Nigeria. The descriptive research design of ex-post-facto type was used in the study. Three hundred respondents were selected randomly from two Universities. The respondents were measured with a self-developed scale, and the data obtained were analyzed using descriptive (mean) statistical analysis. Four research questions were raised and answered. The result showed that causes of strike action in selected higher institutions include non-payment of teacher’s salaries, low responds to problems confronting schools among others, problems of strike action in selected higher institutions include production of half-baked graduates, youth involvement in secret cult, widespread of examination malpractice, causes of deviant behavior in selected higher institutions include parental neglect, drug addiction, high level of poverty among others and problems of deviant behavior in selected higher institutions include incessant strike action, widespread of examination malpractice, prevalence of teenage pregnancy among others. Given these findings, the study recommended that school counselors should identify deviant behaviors and counsel adolescents on how it can be prevented and that Government should deem it fit to respond to the yearnings and aspirations of the workers in terms of quick payment of their salaries and other emoluments.

AbstractTeenagers are one of the groups that are very vulnerable to be swept along, they are looking for identity and lifestyle that is most suitable for him. It is not uncommon to cause mistakes and the mistakes they do often cause parents concerns and feelings that are uncomfortable for their environ­ment. These mistakes are what are often referred to as juvenile delinq­uen­cy. Juvenile delinquency is also known as deviant behavior, namely by the participation of a teenager in illegal behavior. This then reaps the response of the public that these behaviors should not be done by adolescents so that it gives rise to stigma/labels against these adolescents. The purpose of this study is to provide an explanation of the factors underlying the occurrence of juvenile delinquency and provide an overview of the influence of community stigma/labels on juvenile delinquency. the approach used in this paper is qualitative. By using a qualitative approach, it is possible to obtain data especially on stigma or labels, and their effects on juvenile delinquency. The results of the study are that two factors are underlying juvenile delinquency, namely factors originating from the external and factors originating from the internal. Then the label given to a person can influence his behavior, which most of the application of negative labels and stigma (such as criminal), increases deviant behavior and becomes a self-concept.AbstrakRemaja adalah salah satu kelompok yang sangat rentan ikut terbawa arus, mereka sedang dalam fase pencarian jati diri dan jalan hidup yang paling cocok bagi mereka. Yang mana hal ini tidak jarang menimbulkan ke­salahan dan kesalahan yang diper­buat­nya tidak jarang menyebabkan ke­kha­watiran orangtua serta menimbulkan perasaan yang tidak nya­man bagi lingkungan mereka. Kesalahan-kesalahan ini lah yang se­ring disebut dengan istilah kenakalan remaja. Kenakalan remaja di­kenal juga sebagai penyimpangan perilaku yaitu dengan ber­partisipasinya seorang remaja dalam perilaku ilegal. Hal inilah kemudian menuai tanggapan masyarakat bahwa perilaku-perilaku tersebut tidak seharusnya di­per­buat oleh remaja sehingga memun­culkan stigma/label terhadap remaja ter­sebut. Adapun penelitian ini memiliki tujuan untuk mem­beri­kan pen­jelasan mengenai faktor-faktor yang melatar belakangi ter­jadi­nya kena­kalan remaja serta memberi gambaran tentang pengaruh stigma/ label masyarakat terhadap kenakalan remaja. pendekatan yang digu­nakan dalam tulisan ini adalah pendekatan kualitatif. Dengan menggunakan pen­­de­katan kualitatif, dimungkinkan untuk mendapat­kan  data ter­uta­ma  mengenai  stigma atau label serta pengaruhnya pada kenakalan re­maja. Hasil dari penelitian yakni terdapat dua faktor yang melatar be­la­kangi kenakalan remaja, yaitu faktor yang berasal dari eksternal dan faktor yang berasal dari internal. Kemudian label yang diberikan kepada se­seorang dapat mempengaruhi perilakunya, yang mana sebagian besar pene­­rapan label dan stigma yang negatif (seperti kriminal), mening­katkan perilaku yang menyimpang dan menjadi suatu konsep diri.

The depletion of traditional organic energy sources and aggravated environmental problems are the reasons why the level of energy efficiency is an important factor in the competitiveness of the national economy. Russia ranks third in the world in terms of total energy consumption and its economy is distinguished by a high level of energy intensity (amount of energy per unit of GDP). In 2019, this figure was 9.62 tons of oil equivalent (toe) per 1 million rubles, which is 40% higher than the world average. The low energy efficiency of the Russian economy is a widely recognized problem. A special decree of the Government of Russia in 2018 sets the task of increasing the level of energy efficiency of the Russian economy by 23% by 2030. One of the ways to solve this problem is the development of nuclear energy, and increasing the competitiveness of nuclear energy is one of the key issues for the national economy. In this connection, solving the problem of assessing the competitiveness of the nuclear industry and its leading companies occupies a key place among the practical scientific problems, the solution of which is facilitated by the results presented by the authors in this article. Rosenergoatom Concern JSC is the leading energy generating company in the Russian nuclear industry. The results of the study of the competitiveness of Rosenergoatom Concern JSC were obtained on the basis of the authors’ methodology for assessing the competitiveness of an energy generating company. The novelty of the presented methodology lies in the developed normative and evaluative model and the coefficients of competitiveness of an energy generating company. The advantages of the authors’ model are that it allows (1) obtaining integral assessments of the competitiveness of a power generating company at short time intervals for a large number of indicators and (2) quantitatively measuring the effects of different factors on the competitiveness of a power generating company, provided that the grouping of indicators of competitiveness of a power generating company is justified by influencing factors. The two factors considered by the authors were: the general market factor and the industry factor. According to the results of the study, it was found that Rosenergoatom Concern JSC demonstrates positive increase of the competitiveness indicator mainly due to the industry factor. With this regard, it was concluded that, within the framework of state policy, it is advisable to strengthen support for the Russian nuclear industry by creating additional conditions and opportunities for its energy generating companies on the domestic energy market.

Stock trading activities are always very popular in many countries. Generally, investors with various backgrounds have different preferences over the stocks they trade. In literature, a number of studies examine the institutions' holding preferences for certain stock characteristics when choosing the security portfolio. However, very few studies investigate the stock trading preferences of individual investors. In this paper, we focus on two factors which affect the portfolio choices of investors, which are stock characteristics and investor features. In particular, a self-organizing map (SOM) is used to group a certain number of clusters based on a chosen dataset. Then, the decision tree model is used to extract useful rules from the clusters which contain the most trading records in the sample. We find that if the investors are females, less wealthy, and make stock trades with lower frequencies, they will be more careful and conservative. On the other hand, if the investors are males, having a high level of wealth, and make stock trades very often, they tend to choose stocks with high EPS, high market-to-book, and high prices.

This study aimed at finding the effect of self control (SC) on deviant behavior (DB) of Students. The approach of the study was quantitative. Causal comparative research design was used to investigate the effect of self control on students’ deviance. Students (8940) of grade 9th and 10th of all public schools of Mirpur, Azad Jammu and Kashmir (AJK) constituted the population of this study. Data were collected from 470 students of Mirpur, AJK. Out of them there were 291 males and 179 were females. Two scales, SC Scale originally developed by Grasmick et al., (1993) and Normative Deviance Scale by Vazsonyi et al., (2001) were adapted to measure the SC and DB of the students respectively. Descriptive statistics, t-test and linear regression were applied to analyze the data. Results of the study found a low level of SC and high level of DB among the secondary school students. Female were more SC led as compared to the males whereas male showed more DB than females. Regression analysis showed that SC has significant positive effect on the DB and it brings 49.8% variability in the DB of the secondary school students. It was recommended that SC related activities should be added into the curriculum at primary level as this is the best age for the development of SC into the students. Workshops and seminars should be held at Secondary Schools to bring awareness on the benefits of SC for the teachers and students.

The objective of this paper is to measure the degree of Home Bias within the holdings of portfolio and to identify their determining factors. By following an intuitive reasoning, the authors have chosen a number of susceptible factors that have an impact on Home Bias. In fact, they have developed an international CAPM (Capital Asset Pricing Model). This model is estimated for 20 countries, with the use of cross-section econometrics. The authors' results show that all countries have recorded a high level of Home bias in their holdings of portfolio. In order to study whether the Home Bias of the newly emerging markets and that of the developed markets react differently to the determining factors or not the authors have evaluated the model so much jointly for all markets as separately for the developed and the newly emerging ones. In the case of classification of the sample, the results have permitted us to draw an important conclusion and to have cognizance that the volatility of the exchange rate is statistically significant concerning the newly emerging economies at a threshold of 1%, while it is hardly remarkable for the developed countries. This means that this variable prevents the American investors from investing in the former countries. Samely, for both variables of joint- variance and size.

Quantile Regression Method

Few studies have been conducted on whether the coexistence of green innovation and corporate social responsibility (CSR) has a favorable interaction effect on firm value. This interaction effect is of great significance for enterprises balancing resource allocation between two factors in the future. Meanwhile, information disclosure can reflect the efforts of enterprises in taking on CSR. Therefore, taking China’s listed companies as an example, this paper studies the interaction effect of CSR after being divided into the three different dimensions of environment, society, and governance (ESG) and green innovation on firm value. The quantile regression method can reflect the impact of CSR and green innovation on the firm value of different levels. The study finds that: (1) green innovation can promote the improvement of medium- and high-level firm value; (2) only the disclosure of environmental and social information can have a positive impact on firm value; (3) the interaction effect between green innovation and social disclosure on firm value is a substitution effect, which will gradually weaken with the increase of firm value. This paper proposes that relevant departments should guide green funds into enterprises with capital constraints to alleviate the issue of fund crowding into CSR and green innovation.

This paper addresses characteristics of finite-buffer Markov-modulated fluid processes, particularly those related to their deviant behavior. Our aim in this paper is to find rough asymptotics for the probability of a loss cycle. Apart from that, we derive some properties of the fluid process in case of the buffer contents reaching a high level (a process we call the conjugate of the original process). Our main goal is to obtain practicable methods to find the rate matrix of this conjugate process. For this purpose we use large deviations techniques, but we consider the governing eigensystem, as well, and we discuss the relation between these two approaches. We extend the analysis to the multiple source case. Finally, we use the obtained results in simulation. We examine variance reduction by importance sampling in a multiple source example. The new statistical law of the fluid process is based on the conjugate rate matrices.

Abstract Aberrant activation of the TALE (three-amino-acid loop extension) homeobox gene MEIS1 is frequently observed in acute leukemia. A high level of Meis1 expression shortens the latency, as well as accelerates the onset and progression of acute myeloid leukemia in mice. Although available data support the notion that MEIS1 is oncogenic by means of overexpression rather than mutation, the molecular mechanism underlying persistent activation of this gene in leukemia remains poorly understood. We have identified a distal enhancer (designated EX) at the MEIS1 locus and found that MEIS1 itself and HOXA9 synergistically activate the regulatory activity of EX through a conserved DNA motif. Using comparative genomics-based strategies, we computationally predicted 14 putative enhancer DNA elements in the 1300 Kb MEIS1 locus. We confirmed that the human sequences of 6 of these 14 elements showed enhancer function as they were able to direct GFP expression in a spatiotemporal manner during embryonic hematopoiesis in an in vivo transgenic zebrafish assay. To explore whether these 6 elements play a role in regulating MEIS1 expression in human leukemia, we examined the presence of histone modifications that are associated with gene activation in a panel of 8 leukemia cell lines. In MEIS1-expressing cells, but not MEIS1 transcript-negative cell lines, the genomic region corresponding to enhancer EX showed extensive H3K4 mono-methylation (me1H3K4), a hallmark of active distal enhancers. When endogenous MEIS1 expression decreases during cellular differentiation, the active histone mark me1H3K4 was replaced by repressive H3K27 methylation and the associated EZH2 polycomb protein at the EX region. In murine leukemia models, retroviral integration at the Meis1 locus has been shown to result in overexpression of Meis1 leading to development of AML. Strikingly, we found that viral integration frequently occurred within the genomic sequence corresponding to enhancer EX. Collectively, these data suggest that enhancer EX plays an important role in maintaining high level expression of endogenous MEIS1 in transformed leukemic cells. In an effort to identify the molecular basis underlying the observed regulatory function of EX, we found MEIS1 and HOXA9 synergistically stimulate the enhancer activity of EX in reporter gene assays, suggesting that production of MEIS1 protein can reinforce its own expression. Mutation of a conserved site within the enhancer abolished the ability of these two factors to activate reporter gene expression. Using ChIP (Chromatin Immunoprecipitation), we further demonstrated that MEIS1 and HOXA9 specifically bind to the genomic region containing the conserved site in vivo, and the presence of these two factors in the region is associated with active MEIS1 expression. These studies provide insight on the molecular mechanisms controlling transcription regulation of MEIS1, suggesting that overexpression of MEIS1 in acute leukemia is sustained by an autoregulatory loop mediated through a distal enhancer element.

We raise the problem of preventing deviant behavior of students in secondary professional educational organizations. The relevance of the research topic is due to the need to resolve the contradiction between the society’s need for training healthy specialists in physical, mental and moral aspects and the high level of deviant prevalence among adolescents and students, as well as insufficient study of the potential of physical and recreational activities as a way to prevent students’ deviant behavior. The purpose of the study is the justification of the prevention system of deviant behavior of students in secondary professional educational institutions using means of physical recreation. We use theoretical and empirical research methods, the leading place among which is occupied by the analysis of the state of the problem in pedagogical theory and practice, as well as a pedagogical experiment. It is established that the proposed system should include tar-geted, substantive, operational, criteria and evaluative, resultative components and be implemented with the inclusion of the main participants in the educational process. All forms of motor activity of students in the educational process, contributing to the constructive development of their personality, were classified as means of physical recreation. A significant place in the developed system is reserved for training complexes, differentially used depending on the level of manifestation of students’ deviation. It is proved that the effectiveness of the prevention system of deviant behavior of students in secondary vocational educational institutions using means of physical recreation is achieved by implementing a set of pedagogical conditions: organizational, stimulating, methodic and the conditions of the theoretical, psychological and technological preparedness of teachers for this kind of activity.
