Cultural Structure

Personal constitutional and acquired predispositions form preferences in the vectors of perception of information (cultural) sentences of the environment. On these vectors, contextual factors are formed that affect the processing of incoming information, the formation of representations and images, which determine the interpretation of lexical signs. Multiplication of contexts creates metacontexts that define the boundaries of virtual reality. One of the design features of Clip thinking (ClipT) is the formation of metacontexts by external structures: network associations. The metacontexts of ClipT form a new structure of communicative experience that changes the self-identification and socialization of the subject, causing a state of dependence. ClipT has significant similarities with hieroglyphic thinking (HieT), which consists of quantized combinations: image + sense + emotion + tone. Hieroglyphics (thinking and writing) have a metacontext nature, being a formation of an ethnic scale. According to some structural parameters, KlipT and HieT are similar to the level of identity. Fundamental factors are the external genesis of metacontexts; the imagery of thinking; elimination of causal relationships and abstraction; visual "receiving-transmission" of the sense of the perceptual image, including the graphic image; rigidity of mental and behavioral structures; embedded experience; etc. The integral structure of a legitimizing nature (HieT + writing + language + metacontext continuum (ethnocultural matrix)) forms a parametrically conjugated social structure derived from it. A monolithic socio-cultural conglomeration with a self-reproduction mechanism is created. We believe this principle is universal, with the possibility of extrapolation to any socio-cultural structure. Currently, the HS population is in a state of forming a universal cultural matrix with the potential to replace ethnocultural matrices. ClipT—the new operating system of the psyche—defines and unifies the transformation of ethnocultural matrices with the vector of universalization. The significant similarity of hieroglyphics with the parameters of ClipT contains the extrapolation potential of modeling (sociological and mathematical) the expected ethnic/universal dynamics of conglomeration: ClipT (psyche as a whole) and congruent social construction. The identity points of ClipT and HieT can find application in the constructions and artificial intelligence learning, as reference points of operating systems of thinking and language, in the structure of which there are no algorithms for cause-effect relationships, analysis, feedback, abstract thinking, and classification structures dominate.

In this contribution, composite materials based on magnesium oxychloride cement (MOC) with multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) used as an additive were prepared and characterized. The prepared composites contained 0.5 and 1 wt.% of MWCNTs, and these samples were compared with the pure MOC Phase 5 reference. The composites were characterized using a broad spectrum of analytical methods to determine the phase and chemical composition, morphology, and thermal behavior. In addition, the basic structural parameters, pore size distribution, mechanical strength, stiffness, and hygrothermal performance of the composites, aged 14 days, were also the subject of investigation. The MWCNT-doped composites showed high compactness, increased mechanical resistance, stiffness, and water resistance, which is crucial for their application in the construction industry and their future use in the design and development of alternative building products.

This study aims to identify the factors forming the purchase price levels of sour cherries for processing in Poland and to determine the way such factors affect these price levels. The scope of the study covers the 2004-2018 period. The subject of the study were the annual average purchase prices of sour cherries for freezing and sour cherries for pressing. Those prices were published by the Institute of Agricultural and Food Economics in the magazine “Rynek Owoców i Warzyw” [“Fruit and Vegetable Market”]. A multiple regression method was used for analysing the relationship between the purchase prices of sour cherries and their determinants. The estimation of the structural parameters of econometric models was done using the method of least squares. The estimated econometric models explain approximately 80% volatility in the purchase prices of sour cherries for processing. The sour cherry harvest both in Poland and Germany as well as the strawberry harvest in Poland proved to be significant for the purchase prices of sour cherries. Strawberries may be a substitute for sour cherries in food processing. The importance of this factor for the formation of the purchase prices of sour cherries is a significant result of this study.

The aim of the research is to determine the theoretical and practical significance of the reviews on natural sciences terminology dictionaries. The object of the research is a system of parametric measurements of terminology dictionaries, the subject is critical remarks on the structural parameters representation of terminology dictionaries. The research material is the texts of the reviews published during the late XXth and the early XXIst centuries. Тhe following methods were used: lexicographic analysis of the dictionary parameters, the quantitative analysis and the comparative one. As a result of the research, it is determined that throughout the analyzed period the experts focus on definition and translation dictionaries as well as reference dictionaries. Most remarks are made to the dictionaries of the early XXIst century. The potential importance of practical application of the results is to improve the theoretical and methodological principles and means of terminology dictionaries creation, as well as their use to develop new (combined) type that comprehensively represent the vocabulary of a particular branch of science. Conclusions: 1) the critical comments on professional definition dictionaries relate to such of their parameters as: ‘introduction / preface’, ‘encyclopedia information’, ‘dictionary register’, ‘definition’, ‘list of references’; 2) translation definition dictionaries have quantitative drawbacks regarding the representation of such structural parameters: ‘dictionary register’, ‘translation area’, ‘definition’; 3) to the parameters of reference dictionaries the following critical comments are made: to replace the title loan term by the normative term; to add the ‘accent characteristic’ parameter; to match the title terms with their definitions etc. Theoretical and practical significance of the reviews on terminology dictionaries gives the possibility to systematize the drawbacks revealed by critics in the representation of structural parameters of such publications, for the purpose to improve the fundamental theoretical and methodological foundations of metaterminography and the practical realization of high-quality works.

Az ÚNKP kutatás célja annak vizsgálata, hogy a szakértői nyilvántartásban szereplő felnőttképzési szakértők és programszakértők kötelező továbbképzéseinek moduljai (14/2014. (III. 31.) NGM rendelet) tartalmaznak-e ismereteket a fogyatékossággal élő felnőttek képzésben való részvételének feltételrendszeréről, valamint hogy a felnőttképzési szakértők számára nehézséget okoz-e, ha a felnőttképzési intézmények munkatársai a témát érintő kérdésekkel fordulnak hozzájuk. Előzmény a KJM Alapítvány 2016. évi Phd pályázata keretében lefolytatott kutatás, amely eredményei szerint a válaszadó engedéllyel rendelkező felnőttképzési intézmények 95%-a úgy véli, hogy a felnőttképzési szakértők számára szükséges volna olyan tartalmú továbbképzés biztosítása, mely támpontokkal látja el őket annak érdekében, hogy segíteni tudják őket az egyenlő esélyű hozzáférés biztosításának megteremtésében (n=136). (Hangya, 2016, Hangya, 2017)A kutatás módszere teljes körű mintavételen alapuló félig strukturált kérdőíves lekérdezés. 314 fő válaszolt a kutatás kérdőívére, mely a tisztított minta 41%-a. A szakértők 80%-a jelezte, hogy a kötelező továbbképzések nem tartalmaztak fogyatékosság-specifikus ismereteket. A válaszadó szakértők több mint 90%-a egyetért azzal, hogy szükséges volna ennek pótlása (n=312). 227 fő nem vett még részt ilyen témájú továbbképzésen, de 78%-uk szívesen tenné, amennyiben rendelkezésre állna ilyen (n=227). A válaszadók (n=308) 59,4%-a nem találkozott még olyan kérdésekkel a felnőttképzési intézmények részéről, melyek a fogyatékossággal élő felnőttek egyenlő esélyű hozzáférését érintik, 46,5%-uk számára ez nehézséget jelentene.  84 fő (27%) fogalmazott meg nyitott kérdés keretében a témával kapcsolatban fejlesztési javaslatokat. The aim of the ÚNKP research is the investigation of whether the obligatory further education modules for adult education experts and program experts (14/2014. (III. 31.) NGM regulation) contain information regarding the conditionality for adults living with disabilities participating in education and the level of difficulty for adult education experts to inform colleges from adult education institutions on questions regarding this subject. A precursor is a research conducted within the framework of the 2016 Phd application of the KJM Foundation, according to which 95% of adult education institutions authorized for a response is of the opinion that the provision of a further education program for adult education experts which contains reference points to facilitate the provision of equal opportunity access would be necessary (n=136). (Hangya, 2016, Hangya, 2017)The method of research is a semi-structured questionnaire survey based on comprehensive sampling. 314 persons answered to the research questionnaire, which makes up 41% of the purified sample. 80% of experts indicated a lack of disability-specific information within the obligatory further education programs. More than 90% of respondents agree that supplementation of such information is necessary (n=312). 227 persons did not yet participate in further education programs within this subject, however, 78% would gladly do so if given the opportunity (n=227). 59,4% of respondents (n=308) did not yet encounter questions from adult education institutions regarding the equal access of adults living with disabilities, 46,5% would consider this a difficulty.  84 persons (27%) formulated developmental suggestions regarding the subject within the framework of an open point.

This article deals with the problem of a new way of reporting corporate information – the Core & More concept. Its aim is to evaluate the Core & More concept as it relates to the increasing transparency of corporate reporting as well as to the transparency of information provided to stakeholders. On the basis of a critical review of the subject literature, reports of sector institutions and interviews with representatives of business practices, the research hypothesis was verified positively. Corporate reports that conform to the standards of the Core & More concept are more transparent and the information given to stakeholders is structured. The Core & More concept allows to derogate from the silo approach of reporting. It structures information, makes it more readable and more logical to understand. The implementation of this concept, however, requires reporting persons to use abstract thinking. Additionally, while creating reports, one should have both IT skills and IT support because this concept involves, to a large extent, the use of IT tools.

Globally, housing policies have been used as an attempt to try and address housing problems, particularly in respect to the low-income earners, with the view of helping them access better housing. The evolution of housing policy in developing countries has been studied and identified in different ways, however, this paper present a robust theoretical background of the developments in housing policy framework. The data used in this paper were derived from secondary sources only; through a detailed review of related literature on the subject to meet the research objectives. The study is an in-depth literature exploration of the theoretical perspective of the housing studies framework. The literature reviewed found that the theory of housing had its origin in the Paleolithic period when homo-sapiens began to use natural materials like stone, wood, leaves, animal skin and other similar items to create shelter from elements of weather. It was also found that there are various theoretical perspective frameworks that have been used in the study of housing, such as political, social, developmental, institutional, and radical perspectives amongst others. This study provides a robust theoretical framework used in housing study.

Aim. The estimation of potential role of plant β-tubulin Ser172 phosphorylation for correct function of microtubules and cell division due to selection of protein kinases, most probable associated with phosphorylation of Ser172 in Arabidopsis thaliana (L.) Heynh. Methods. Literature and database search. Comparison of protein sequences and structures: multiple sequence alignment, phylogenetic profiling, protein structure modeling, etc. Results. Comparison of Ser172 site region from all known β-tubulins from Homo sapiens, Sus scrofa, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Drosophila melanogaster and A. thaliana confirms its significant similarity. Joint clusterization of all Ser172 site regions (in S±10 a.a. format) reveals that plant site is most similar to Ser172±10 fragment of β-tubulin from S. cerevisiae. At the same time, sequences and catalytic domain structures of cyclin-dependent kinases 1 and YAK1-related kinases (MNB/DYRK1a/YAK1) associated with Ser172 phosphorylation, found maximal similarity in A. thaliana and S. cerevisiae. Сonclusions. The results confirm similarity of amino acid environment of Ser172 in β-tubulin isotypes in human, pig, fruit fly, yeast and arabidopsis. This suggests similar effect of β-tu­bulin phosphorylation at Ser172 for inhibition of microtubule assembly onto their protofilaments and its association with CDK1 and YAK1-related protein kinases. Similarity of Ser172 sites and associated protein kinases, allows us to expect similar effect of this modification on structure of microtubules in A. thaliana and S. cerevisiae.

The study is devoted to defining the essential content of integration as a process, revealing the features of integrated associations in terms of their structure, taking into account the specifics of agro-industrial production. The theoretical basis of the analysis was the understanding of the economic entities’ integration as a multi-level process of systemic transformation, which implies qualitative changes at each stage of integration growth. A concepts differentiation of the “subject” and “subjective factor” is presented based on the meaning understanding of the subject as a structure element of integrated associations. It is recognized that the economic entity acts as a carrier of certain properties and potentials, in particular – integrative, and subjective factor – the action of the subjects aimed at achieving a specific goal. In order to provide a methodological apparatus for qualitative systematic analysis of potential types, forms and methods of forming integrated associations of agricultural production enterprises, taking into account the specific objectives of the association, a typology of integration was proposed, which included decentralized integration, partially centralized integration and centralized integration. The levels of economic entities integration according to the elements that are part of the integration group are highlighted: the level of enterprise interaction, the level of corporate interaction, the level of industry interaction. Structural peculiarities of integrated structures functioning of agroindustrial production on cluster bases (based on rationalization of transformations in the field of interbranch exchange, structural reorganization and innovation-investment modernization of the enterprises-members of the unions, improvement of the level of economic efficiency and competitiveness due to obtaining synergistic effects of economic interaction) and on the basis of strategic alliances are disclosed. Network connections in the cluster structures development with an emphasis on the integration degree of these connections subjects are explored. The strategic management imperative of the integration structural parameters in the agro-food complex is formulated – the corporate structures organization in the form of industrial and social clusters, which is the nucleus around which suppliers, enterprises and consumers of other industries are closely connected with the cluster core of the territorial-industrial complex. Keywords: agro-industry, agrarian enterprises, integrated alliances, clusters, strategic alliances.

The importance in mobility performance of the rate of presentation of visual information, binocular versus monocular vision, the use of multiple rather than single reference points, and local motion parallax was investigated in two experiments. In each experiment ten subjects walked a triangular mobility course in a totally darkened room; the only visible targets were light emitting diodes (LEDs), mounted on poles, at the apices of the triangle. The LEDs were mounted so that one or two could be used in a trial; if two were used the distance between them was varied horizontally (in experiment 1) and vertically (in experiment 2). The subjects walked around the course under a range of conditions, including two ‘optimal trials’ in full light. The LEDs were flashed for 1 ms at frequencies of 0.5, 1 and 5 Hz in experiment 1 and at 1 and 5 Hz in experiment 2. Mobility was measured with the use of an ultrasonic locator system which measured the subject's position on the course 10 times per second. The mean velocity of the subject in traversing the course was significantly reduced when the flash rate was slower, when the subject had one eye occluded, or when there was only one LED on the pole; when the spacing between the LEDs was varied, either vertically or horizontally performance was unaffected. These results imply that the frequency of updating of visual information is important in determining mobility performance, as are binocular cues, but that local motion parallax is not important. The number of LEDs on each pole had a significant effect on mobility performance: an ‘object’ (two lights) gave more information than a point reference.
