The article is devoted to the issues of modeling the accessibility of public transport and the formation of its criteria by using geographic information systems (GIS). The paper presents an analysis of the relationship between transport development and the development of large cities. The article analyzes the world and domestic experience of using transport availability indices in urban planning policy: public transport accessibility indices; a model of transit-oriented development, examples of its practical application in various cities worldwide. Based on the study of a number of methods based on objective and subjective assessments of the level of transport accessibility, it was concluded that there is currently no universal methodology for a comprehensive assessment of the transport accessibility in megalopolises (objective and perceived). The modern possibilities of solving the tasks set by geomarketing technology based on the use of big data are identified. The practical significance of the results obtained by the authors is due to the possibility of forming, on the basis of the studied methods, a system for analyzing the transport accessibility of capital objects in Moscow, differentiating the level of transport accessibility for different groups of the population.

The Relationship

Despite the growing share of ridesourcing services in cities, there is limited research about their impacts on other transport mode choices in the large cities of the Middle East and North Africa (MENA). There is a debate about whether ridesourcing affects the frequent use of sustainable modes like public transport. This study uses the results of a large-scale series of face-to-face interviews in Tehran and Cairo to study the relationship between the regular use of ridesourcing and the frequency of public transport use. Descriptive statistics and logit regression are used to analyze this association. The findings indicate contradictory correlations between the regular use of ridesourcing and the frequent use of public transport in Tehran and Cairo. The regular use of ridesourcing has a positive correlation with the probability of frequent public transport use in Cairo. In contrast, this correlation is negative in Tehran, which means that the regular ridesourcing users are less likely than the non-regular users to use frequently public transport. The reasons for these different correlations are studied in terms of socioeconomic variables, accessibility, and the citizens’ perception of public transport in both cities.

The Relationship

The difficulty of conducting an empirical assessment of the true extent of corruption, caused by the lack of the necessary data, has contributed to the emergence of a new round of research focusing on the study of the influence of various factors on corruption. At the same time, such studies are distinguished by a variety of approaches to the choice of indicators and objects of study, as well as by the difference, and sometimes contradictory conclusions. These circumstances actualize the research topic. The purpose of the article to determine the relationship between corruption, economic growth and the quality of life of the population in five countries of the world, representing different parts of the world and geo-economics regions. The hypothesis of the study is the assertion that for developed countries the correlation between perceptions of corruption and indicators will be lower than for developing countries. The objects of research are Kazakhstan, Russia, Germany, USA and Finland. The subject of the research the relationship between the level of corruption, economic growth and the quality of life of the population. The study uses statistical research methods. The initial data of the study were the reports of Transparency International on the Corruption Perceptions Index, UNDP on the Human Development Index, as well as official data from the state statistical services of the countries in question.In the course of the work, the boundaries of the interpretation of the term “corruption” were determined, the relevance of the study of the relationship between corruption, GDP per capita and the quality of life was briefly described, and a correlation analysis was carried out between the indicators. The results of the study represent conclusions about the quality and strength of the relationship between corruption, economic growth and the quality of life of the population. The scientific contribution of the research is to substantiate possible directions for improving research to establish the relationship between corruption and other socio-economic indicators. The practical significance of the study lies in the presentation of the evidence base for the fact that the relationship of the studied indicators may be different in different countries. The direction for future research is the possibility of using the assessment methodology for other groups of countries.

The aim of the study is to analyze and forecast the use of payment cards for making non-cash payments through national payment systems in Kazakhstan. Based on this goal, a hypothesis was put forward that in Kazakhstan, there is a relationship between the number of payment cards and the volume of non-cash payments. This hypothesis was confirmed because of the study. The information base of the study was the data on payment cards, which were taken from the Statistical Bulletin of the National Bank of the Republic of Kazakhstan. Hypothesis testing was carried out using correlation analysis for three periods: 2009, 2016, 2020. The method of finding Pearson’s correlation in the SPSS program was used. The results showed a downward change in the relationship between the selected indicators and the amount of funds transferred over time. Also, in this study, a forecast was made for 2021-2023 for the indicators under consideration. To make a forecast for the indicators under consideration, a graphical method (polynomial trend line) was used. The resulting forecast shows the growth of cardholders and, consequently, the spread of the number of payment cards among the population in 2021-2023. The practical significance of this study is that the proposed methodology can help predict the dynamics of payment cards in any country in the world. Recommendations are also given for further improving the financial system, since increasing the transparency of monetary circulation in small-and-medium sized businesses will lead to a positive result in the implementation of the program for universal declaration of income in 2025.

Исследование русских и китайских культур полезно для выявления интернационального и национального. В статье дан сопоставительный анализ китайских и русских примет, содержащих номинацию собака, с позиций лингвокультурологии. Реконструкция паремиологической картины мира помогает понять соотнесенность зоонимической лексики с менталитетом народов двух стран и оценить особенности их мировосприятия. В качестве материала исследования послужила авторская картотека, состоящая из 44 русских и 23 китайских примет, извлеченных из лексикографических источников методом сплошной выборки. Анималистический образ, легший в основу паремий, дал возможность классифицировать приметы с точки зрения доминантной составляющей действия номинации собака как в антропоцентрической, так и в фенологической направленности, выявлено численное превосходство паремий представленных групп. Рассмотрены возможности образования семантического поля «собака» в русской и китайской языковой системе. Дается описание паремий с точки зрения религиозных убеждений, климатических особенностей; приведена оценка единиц, схожих в плане содержания, но различных в плане выражения. Показано, как русские и китайские обычаи находят отражение в приметах как культурно заряженных текстах. Практическая значимость данного исследования заключается в том, что наблюдения и выводы могут быть полезны для расширения знаний о взаимосвязи зоонимической лексики, используемой в составе паремий, с духовным миром и культурой людей разных национальностей. It is important to study the Russian and Chinese cultures in order to identify the international and national about them. The article provides a comparative analysis of Chinese and Russian signs containing the dog nomination from the standpoint of linguoculturology. Reconstruction of the paremiological picture of the world helps to understand the correlation of zoonymic vocabulary with the mentality of the people of the two countries and assess the features of their perception of the world. The author’s card index, consisting of 44 Russian and 23 Chinese signs, extracted from lexicographic sources using a continuous sample, was used as the research material. The animalistic image that formed the basis for proverbs, gave the opportunity to classify the signs in term of the dominant orientation of the action of the dog nomination in both anthropocentric and phenological patterns, the numerical superiority of the paroemias of the groups represented was revealed. The article considers the possibilities of forming the semantic field «dog» in the Russian and Chinese language systems. The description of paroemias is given from the point of view of religious beliefs, climatic features, and the assessment of units that are similar in terms of content, but different in terms of expression. It is shown how Russian and Chinese customs reflect in signs as culturally charged texts. The practical significance of this study is that its observations and conclusions can be useful for expanding knowledge about the relationship of zoonymic vocabulary used in the composition of paroemias with the spiritual world and culture of people of different nationalities.

Theorists spend countless hours conducting research to explain phenomena that exist in the world and to increase the base of knowledge in their fields. Once this knowledge is discovered and codified, it should be used. However, scholars are divided on the relationship between theory and practical application and their reciprocal value. This paper explores the relationship between theory and practical application and displays a specific example of how one theory, the theory of service-dominant logic, can be practically applied in the field of business.

“Mobility crisis”: These are the words used by Anumita Roychoudhury, the executive director of Delhi’s Centre for Science and Environment, to describe the growing pollution in India, especially in large cities like Delhi, as a result of the dramatic increase in the use of motorized vehicles in the past two decades. Although the population of Delhi and its surrounding cities more than doubled (to twenty-two million) between 1991 and 2011, she points out that registered cars and motorbikes increased fivefold, to eight million.1 Th is growth, along with increased but poorly regulated construction, underinvestment in public transport, and local and national policies that privilege automobiles at the expense of other forms of transport, has resulted in pollution rates that are now, according to a World Health Organization report, the worst in the world.2
