The article was prepared for the anniversary of R. D. Goldina and touches upon the issues of the methodology of scientific search in archeology. The positive role of the researcher in the discussion about the chronology of early medieval antiquities, which was held in 1976 in Leningrad, is noted. Possible negative consequences of using alien sketches of archaeological material in scientific research are shown. Modern research (B. V. Rauschenbach) has shown that visual perception of space is a joint work of the eye + brain system, and not of the eye alone. When working with a certain kind of archaeological sources, the researcher's brain must be “trained” to recognize significant signs of this particular kind of sources. The stability of the chronological scheme of R. D. Goldina is predetermined by absolute knowledge of the material that was obtained as a result of her own author's excavations. Methodology for the analysis of archaeological material, developed by R. D. Goldina, is at the heart of many modern researches.

In 2019, in the scientific and practical legal journal "Public Law" №1 (33), the authors published an article on the feasibility of developing a single model of international public law and the noosphere. This decision was made in accordance with known scientific facts: the existence of a single global space of civilizational events and the noosphere, the space of which can be represented as a topological, and the system of public international law can be described as an "equilibrium surface" of differentiated diversity. The development of these studies led the authors to the realization of the existence of a global information and legal structure in the noosphere system, and then to the development and creation of a "topological double-circuit shell-nuclear information and legal model of the noosphere." This model became a conceptual basis for further research: to develop a system of noosphere law, methods of international legal forecasting and monitoring the "stability" of the information and legal structure of the civilizational space of the noosphere. The results of the research are the theoretical foundation for the formation and development of a new scientific and educational interdisciplinary discipline: "legal noospherology", which is of paramount scientific importance for the development of effective methods of international legal forecasting. The implementation of the natural-legal scenario of "inversion", in the absence of monitoring of information and legal processes in the noosphere system using the Model, according to the "catastrophe theory", can lead the world civilization system to unpredictable but expected negative consequences is noted. Their onset, due to the unpredictability of the local human – or rather, personal factor, can cause a spontaneous "implosion" of the shell-nuclear structure of the noosphere and its subsequent "collapse".

National Defence

In 1941, Chiang Kai-shek put forward the proposition that ‘National defence is built upon science and technology, and the strength of a country is secured by national defence’, marking the official start of the National Defence Science Movement (国防科学运动). Attempting to answer the call, a number of journals and newspapers published special issues dedicated to the movement, including many contributions from senior political officials and technological influencers. The papers explored the meaning and role of science, scientific research, science popularization, science-related awards and similar topics. The writers underscored the value of science, publicized the idea of ‘saving the country by means of science’ (科学救国), highlighted the value of basic science and social science, and explained how different disciplines could play their part in national defence. They envisaged postwar reconstruction plans in fields as diverse as telecommunications and forestry and called on young people to study science and take the initiative by devoting themselves to scientific research. The publication of these special issues raised the status of science, especially the basic and social sciences, while playing a positive role in encouraging young people to engage in scientific research.

Theoretical Results

The price fluctuation of commodities affects their demand, and it strongly influences the development of industry and the stability of the international economy. A price-output model with two price-dependent impulses is presented in this paper to describe their mutual restrictions and the price adjustment strategies. The equilibria and dynamic properties of the impulsive-free price-output model are qualitatively analyzed, and the results show the hazard of free price fluctuation. For the price-output model with two price-dependent impulses, conditions for the existence of the order-2 periodic solution are obtained, and the orbital asymptotic stability is proved. Those results reveal the positive role of price adjustment strategies. Finally, some numerical simulations are carried out to verify the theoretical results.

Innovation Ability

The innovation ability of mechanical discipline graduate students in China is trained mainly through classroom teaching and scientific research. Theoretical knowledge is traditionally passed on to students in class by “spoon-feeding,” which makes the learning process boring. Scientific research combines theoretical knowledge with experiment. However, its experimental condition and experimental equipment requirements are high. The experimental resources in many universities can hardly satisfy the requirements, seriously hindering the cultivation of the innovation ability of postgraduates. Therefore, this study proposes a new approach to enhancing the innovation ability of postgraduates in the mechanical discipline based on simulation technology, describes the positive role of simulation technology in the training process, and takes the wavy lip seal as an example to illustrate the application of simulation technology in enhancing innovation ability in detail. The comparison of the traditional and new training modes shows that the innovation ability of postgraduates in the mechanical discipline improves considerably when the new training mode is adopted. Furthermore, the new training mode is recognized by graduate students and enterprises.

Dominant Theory

This study aims to analyze the direct and indirect impact of beliefs in conspiracy theories on COVID-19-related preventive actions and vaccination intentions. The dominant theory in the literature is that beliefs in conspiracy theories have negative consequences. In particular, strong beliefs in conspiracy theories lower people’s intentions to engage in preventive actions and get vaccinated. Previous studies indicated that this dominant theory applies in Korea as well. However, we find that this dominant theory does not apply in Korea. Based on an analysis of survey data, we find that beliefs in conspiracy theories have positive impact on preventive actions and vaccination intentions. In addition, beliefs in conspiracy theories play indirect roles in these two responses to COVID-19. Specifically, when perceived benefits and trust in the government or science enhance preventive actions or increase vaccination intentions, strong beliefs in conspiracy theories promote this effect. This positive role of conspiracy theories is paradoxical because they are generally viewed as negative.

<p style='text-indent:20px;'>Emotions are an integral part of problem-solving, but must emotions traditionally conceptualised as "negative" have negative consequences in learning? Frustration is one of the most prominent emotions reported during mathematical problem-solving across all levels of learning. Despite research aiming to mitigate frustration, it can play a positive role during mathematical problem solving. A systematic review method was used to explore how frustration usually appears in students during mathematical problem-solving and the typical patterns of emotions, behaviours, and cognitive processes that are associated with its occurrence. The findings are mixed, which informs the need for further research in this area. Additionally, there are theories and qualitative findings about the potential positive role of frustration that have not been followed up with empirical investigations, which illuminate how our findings about negative emotions may be limited by the questions we ask as researchers. With the support of research, I consider how educators may directly or indirectly address rethinking the role and consequences of frustration during problem-solving with their students.</p>

The Stability

The aim of the present work was to develop a new nanoparticle carrier, adapted for the oral administration of proteins and their delivery to the immune system. Chitosan and phosphorylated glucomannan were chosen as major constituents of the nanoparticles. Chitosan nanoparticles were formed by ionic gelation and then coated with glucomannan. Two different protocols were adopted for the formation of the glucomannan coating: protocol I, in which chitosan nanoparticles were isolated before their coating; protocol II, in which chitosan nanoparticles were not isolated, but coated with glucomannan in the presence of free chitosan. The results showed that, under the selected formulation conditions, the sizes of the nanoparticles ranged between 170 and 300 nm and their zeta potential values were inverted from positive to negative by the glucomannan coating. The nanoparticles prepared by the two protocols could be freeze-dried, in the presence or absence of cryoprotective agents, preserving their original characteristics. The results of the stability study evidenced the positive role of the glucomannan coating in preventing the aggregation of the nanoparticles in buffered media. Finally, the association of the inmunomodulatory protein complex P1 to the chitosan-glucomannan nanoparticles was investigated. The results showed that the association was not dependent on the chitosan: sodium tripoliphosphate ratio, but it was significantly affected by the presence of sodium phosphate in the protein structure.

Role Of The State

The article considers state regulation in terms of ensuring fair wages. It is noted that in the transition to a market economy there is a separation of interests of employees, employers and the state. An employee is objectively interested in this if the state and trade unions really guarantee him social protection. Characterizing the role of the state, it is indicated on the one hand that it acts as a subject of social partnership and directs its activities to economic growth. On the other hand, in the event of the need for a sharp increase in wages, the state, using the tax system and other indirect methods, is able to reduce the negative consequences for the entrepreneur from making such decisions. Depending on the influence of certain factors, there are notions of normative and positive role of the state. The question of the insolvability of the problem of measuring the amount of labor is raised. Emphasis is placed on the fact that work is the functioning of the employee, his appropriate activities in production or in the field of services, in the process of which he spends some physical energy and mental effort. It is determined that with the help of the mechanism of state regulation the conditions of balance of interests of all subjects of labor relations are created. The state performs the function of ensuring the general conditions of socio- economic growth. In this regard, both the types of regulation and the mechanism itself are changing, ie the changes relate to methods, methods of regulation. It is concluded that the state needs to take on the organizing function of setting reasonable prices for labor, taking into account differences in the qualifications of employees. Nowhere in the world are there such great differences in wages as in modern Ukraine, which differ in complexity. The transition to a policy of anticipatory growth of monetary income should not be too abrupt, should be manageable and take into account the real situation with the availability of goods and services.

Measure Sense

Abstract. The present study aimed at evaluating if the three-item sense of coherence (SOC) scale developed by Lundberg and Nystrom Peck (1995) can be effectively used for research purpose in both nonclinical and clinical samples. To provide evidence that it represents adequately the measured construct we tested its validity in a nonclinical (N = 658) and clinical sample (N = 764 patients with cancer). Results obtained in the nonclinical sample attested a positive relation of SOC – as measured by the three-item SOC scale – with Antonovsky’s 13-item and 29-item SOC scales (convergent validity), and with dispositional optimism, sense of mastery, anxiety, and depression symptoms (concurrent validity). Results obtained in the clinical sample confirmed the criterion validity of the scale attesting the positive role of SOC – as measured by the three-item SOC scale – on the person’s capacity to respond to illness and treatment. The current study provides evidence that the three-item SOC scale is a valid, low-loading, and time-saving instrument for research purposes on large sample.
