The Impact

This article is about criteria of reliability of information. The validity period of the information has been determined. It is established that an important stage of selection, development of methods and mechanisms for ensuring the reliability of information is the analysis of the processes of its processing. The definition of the information reliability assessment is given, and it is also established that the complexity of the information reliability assessment is information evaluation. To assess the accuracy of information, such features as the doubtfulness of the facts presented, the emotional coloring of the content, the tone of the content in relation to an object or event, the sensational content, the hidden content. These features will be based on monitoring the reliability of information in the information space, which aims to minimize the subjectivity of peer review of the content of authors from the point of view of their influential orientation towards individuals of the information space. In order to minimize this subjectivism, the basis of evaluations is the key criteria for the reliability of information, which, unlike estimates, are largely fully measured: the criterion of balance of information, the criterion for separating facts from opinions, the criterion for the accuracy and reliability of information, the criterion for completeness of information. Thus, there is a need to create an algorithm for assessing the reliability of information in the information space, which makes it possible to investigate information resources for the impact on them, identify problems of information security in a timely manner, recommend proven solutions for use at critical sites, organize and to carry out special trainings at the state level, etc.

The Impact

Since the '70s, the assessment of quality of life (QOL) has grown from a 'small cottage' industry to a formal discipline within a coherent theoretical framework, accepted methods, and manifold applications. In recent years, QOL has become increasingly popular as a useful variable tailored to assess the overall impact of diseases and medical treatments from the patient's point of view. In this updating paper, we describe the most frequently used instruments, and discuss the conceptual and practical issues concerning QOL evaluation, as applied to the study of mental disorders. In addition, we present a unifying definition of QOL that has recently been developed by the World Health Organization. Finally, we conclude that QOL measures are potentially useful methods to be applied to research and clinical practice in psychiatry - especially when used to demonstrate the impact of mental illnesses and the possible benefits of therapeutic interventions.

Learning Language

The territories where Catalan is traditionally spoken as a native language constitute an attractive sociolinguistic laboratory which appears especially interesting from the point of view of language-in-education policies. The educational system has spearheaded the recovery of Catalan during the last 20 years. Schools are being attributed most of the responsibility for the (failure of integration) of past and current immigrant waves. There is a historical, demolinguistic and political fragmentation of the linguistic area of Catalan because at least 8 different national and sub-national authorities have a say in the definition of language policies in education. This circumstance has led to the establishment of a number of school models which deal differently with each of the challenges described before. In this contribution, an overview is produced of the main school models which are currently running in the Catalan language areas from a comparative perspective, highlighting their points in common and their differences. The article also provides a summary of available research results in connection with language learning, language practices, the impact on social integration and cohesion, and on academic achievement. It does review some of the challenges that will have to be faced by each system in the near future.

The Impact

Society and policy makers demand innovation systems oriented towards several goals of sustainable development. Therefore, recent literature has dedicated a growing interest to both innovation and sustainability in the pursuit of environmental, economic and social development; in addition, the emerging topic of ‘sustainable innovation’ (and ‘eco-innovation’) seems to combine the main features of them. The definition of these concepts has been significantly changed during the last decades, and a broad discussion continues today about which indicators should be used to measure innovation, sustainability and their combination. The current paper investigates this relationship, and - in the authors’ opinion - the research question connected to the impact of the innovative product (and service and process) solutions on sustainability can be addressed by means of a stable theoretical framework. To study the interaction between innovation and sustainability, the usage of specific territorial features might represent a useful perspective to manage short-and long-term environmental and economic issues. As for the theoretical model, the present article considers a specific technique suitable for investigating the entire set of characteristics involved in the model. From a public makers and managerial point of view, the possibility of improving the firm’ efficiencies in terms of several dimensions of sustainable innovation represents a relevant topic that must be encouraged.

Nowadays one of the topical issues, from legal point of view, is technologies and robotics technologies and devices. Technologies and robotics technologies and devices have become dominant in various areas including business, banking sector and healthcare. Technologies influence every aspect of daily life of modern society at home and work. Technologies, considering development of robotics, have a huge potential to transform public and private sectors. They provide modern and safe levels of services in various forms. The impact of technologies and robotics technologies will grow over time [11]. The article is devoted to definition of legal study of technologies and medical technologies and correlation between particular definitions with the definition of robotics in Latvia. General conclusions related to legal study of the subject shows lack of correct definition of medical technologies and unclear understanding of robotics technologies, artificial intelligence based medical devices from medical care perspective. Raksts veltīts sabiedrībai aktuālas tēmas izpētei – par straujās tehnoloģiskās attīstības iespaidā radīto jauno robotisko un mākslīgā intelekta vadīto ierīču izmantošanas regulējuma nepieciešamību tiesību subjektu tiesisko attiecību sakārtošanai. Rakstā analizēts veselības aprūpē izmantojamo daudzfunkcionālo iekārtu lietošanas tiesiskais regulējums, kā arī tā ietekme uz pacientu tiesību ievērošanu. Robotikas tehnoloģijas un ierīces tiek aktīvi izmantotas veselības aprūpes procesā, it īpaši diagnostikā. Šīs tehnoloģijas ietekmē gandrīz visus mūsdienu sabiedrības ikdienas aspektus un ir kļuvušas par dominējošām dažādās jomās, tostarp uzņēmējdarbībā, banku sektorā un veselības aprūpē. Ņemot vērā robotikas attīstību, šīm tehnoloģijām ir milzīgs potenciāls gan publiskajā, gan arī privātajā sektorā. Laika gaitā robotikas tehnoloģiju ietekme pieaugs, un pieaugs arī tiesiskā aspektā pētāmo problēmjautājumu klāsts. Līdz ar to ļoti svarīga ir tehnoloģiju un medicīnas tehnoloģiju juridisko problēmjautājumu definēšana, korelācija starp konkrētām definīcijām, kā arī robotikas definīcija Latvijā. Vispārīgi secināms, ka medicīnisko tehnoloģiju jomā trūkst skaidru definīciju, kas sniedz nepārprotamu izpratni par robotikas tehnoloģijām, mākslīgā intelekta robottehnoloģijām, medicīnas ierīcēm u.c. Mūsdienās tehnoloģiju jautājums un konkrēta segmenta attīstība nākotnē ir būtiska no juridiskā viedokļa. Piemēram, attīstoties medicīnas tehnoloģijām, kas balstītas uz mākslīgā intelekta sistēmām, novērojams liels potenciāls diagnostikas kontekstā. Taču tehnoloģiskais progress šobrīd ir daudz straujāks nekā jauno tiesību attīstība. Joprojām aktuāls ir jautājums par nākotnes tiesisko regulējumu un esošo tiesisko regulējumu, tā interpretāciju medicīnas tehnoloģiju, ierīču jomā. Medicīniskām ierīcēm, piedāvājot novatoriskus risinājumus profilaksei, novērošanai, prognozēšanai utt., ir būtiska loma veselības aprūpē. Nacionālajos un starptautiskajos tiesību aktos vērojamas vairākas pieejas, lai atbalstītu tehnoloģiju attīstību veselības aprūpē. Taču problēma ir noteikt, vai Latvijā pastāv atšķirība starp medicīnas tehnoloģiju, robotikas tehnoloģiju un ierīču definīciju. Jāatzīst, ka robottehnoloģiju, mākslīgā intelekta ierīču tiesiskais regulējums Latvijā šobrīd nav pilnīgs, kaut arī jauno robottehnoloģiju un mākslīgā intelekta ierīču izgudrošanas, ražošanas un pielietošanas iespaidā tiesiskā regulējuma pilnveides nepieciešamība arvien palielinās.

The article examines the phenomenon of the influence of social networks on the modern Ukrainian consumer, the level of trust to the information resource placed on communication platforms. The aim of the article was to outline the function of social networks as a communication platform, demonstrates the real level of information impact in social networks on Ukrainians. The following aim based on such kind of resources: the analysis of scientific literature, the coexistence of existing points of view, questionnaires (to study the point of view of Ukrainians regarding the impact of social networks). Attention is paid to studying the functions of social networks from the point of view of expanding the spectrum of influence to the audience, the possibility of creating a page of leadership opinion (for example was used the «Facebook» which is very popular network in Ukraine). As a result, 1500 Ukrainians questionnaires were conducted during the survey, demonstrated the level of users’ trust in information resources. We have seen that this level is quite high and sometimes exceeds the trust of traditional media.

Abstract. Chronic critical lower limb ischemia (CLI) has been defined as ischemia that endangers the leg. An attempt was made to give a precise definition of CLI, based on clinical and hemodynamic data (Second European Consensus). CLI may be easily defined from a clinical point of view as rest pain of the distal foot or gangrene or ulceration. It is probably useful to add leg ulcers of other origin which do not heal because of severe ischemia, and to consider the impact of frailty on adverse outcome. From a hemodynamic viewpoint there is no consensus and most of the existing classifications are not based upon evidence. We should thus propose a definition and then validate it in a prospective cohort in order to define the patients at major risk of amputation, and also to define the categories of patients whose prognosis is improved by revascularisation. From today’s available data, it seems clear that the patients with a systolic toe pressure (STP) below 30 mmHg must be revascularised whenever possible. However other patients with clinically suspected CLI and STP above 30 mmHg must be evaluated and treated in specialised vascular units and revascularisation has to be discussed on a case by case basis, taking into account other data such as the WiFi classification for ulcers.In conclusion, many useful but at times contradictory definitions of CLI have been suggested. Only a few have taken into account evidence, and none have been validated prospectively. This paper aims to address this and to give notice that a CLI registry within Europe will be set up to prospectively validate, or not, the previous and suggested definitions of CLI.

The Impact

Implementation of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) impacts the profession of audiology beyond individual audiology practice patterns in the clinic. The legislation and further required implementation of the ACA may dictate coverage of audiologic services and devices now and into the future. Audiologic (re)habilitative services and devices have not historically been covered and are unlikely included in benchmark plans. Under the current language of the ACA, states without mandated coverage of hearing healthcare prior to 2011 will face significant challenges in creating mandates. Arguments for including audiologic services and devices as an Essential Health Benefit (EHB) include quality care, improved patient outcomes, and improved consistency in coverage patterns across the United States. Due to the limited definition of EHB from the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and loopholes in plans required to follow ACA guidelines, it is very possible that the inconsistencies across plans and states may increase and that financial repercussions at the state level may hinder passage of state-level mandated coverage of hearing healthcare.

Context: Testing is fundamental in the software development process. Nevertheless, testing education faces the key challenge of ensuring that undergraduate students acquire knowledge and skills they need for their future careers by matching what is taught in the classroom to industry standards. In this context, gamification can be used as an alternative educational approach. It uses game elements in real-world contexts in order to increase people's motivation and engagement in tasks that require external stimuli, especially in educational contexts.Objective: Reporting on results of an experimental study designed to assess the impact of gamification on software testing education, as well as reporting on the experience of building a supporting gamified platform. Method: We performed a systematic literature mapping aiming at characterizing how gamification has been explored in the software testing context. In addition, some of the problems faced by testing education were identified through an ad-hoc search. Then, we developed a gamified approach and a platform that have been used to run five 4-hour functional testing classes with undergraduate students from four Brazilian institutions of higher education.Results: Overall, students who learned with the traditional approach felt more motivated than those who learned with the gamified approach, whereas the performance of both groups were similar. On the other hand, feedback questionnaires indicated that the gamified class was more attractive (in terms of attention) and funny. Moreover, we observed that building a gamified platform is complex and challenging, particularly for the definition of the game mechanics and dynamics.Conclusion: Even though the results in terms of students' performance was neutral, and the motivation of students did not increase due to the introduction of gamification, the experience of having used this alternative approach is considered positive, as it provided a more enjoyable and funny environment, both from the researcher's and students' point of view. Furthermore,  with this experience we foresee we can do better in terms of gamified teaching in future work.
