The problem of the model of an economic person in modern scientific theory occupies an essential place. Post-nonclassical science, focusing its attention on the subject of scientific research, puts at the center of research the influence of a person on all processes of society, including economic ones. The influence of the human factor and the factor of culture on the economy is studied by many modern economists in order to identify the most general patterns of functioning of national cultures and national economies. The article proposes a culturological interpretation of the model of an economic person on the basis of ethnometric parameters developed by the Dutch sociologist G. Hofstede, provides evidence of the need to build new models of a person in the economy, taking into account the culturally specific characteristics of nations, and also substantiates the thesis existing in modern humanities about the influence of culture on the economy. The homo economicus model of man is one of the most widespread and most debated. At the same time, in the scientific space, the model of the economic person is assigned a crucial role for achieving the prosperity of nations. At the same time, the thesis that in economics culture has a meaning that has a great influence on the study of models of an economic person from the standpoint of culturological science and sociology becomes important. Ethnometric indices developed by G. Hofstede allow for a correlation analysis between such cultural indicators as a high level of individualism, dominance of masculine values, and a long-term period of life planning and satisfaction of one's desires, combined with a low power distance and lack of fear of change, help to achieve a high economic development of the nation. Despite the belief of many sociologists and economists that the possession of these characteristics leads to the prosperity of the nation, none of the developed European countries, based on the results of their development, confirms the conclusion about such a correspondence. In this regard, it seems correct to abandon the construction of a universal model of a person in the economy and focus on the culturally specific characteristics of individual nations with their potential for economic development. The toolkit developed by G. Hofstede undoubtedly has a high heuristic potential in the study of the relationship and interdependence of culture and economy, but it is also obvious that the universalization of the model of an economic person is possible only in theory, and in the case of practical application, it deviates to some extent from the ideal model. due to the peculiarities of national cultures, which have a significant impact on the economic prosperity of nations.

So, achievements on proper sectors are now not too easy due to very high level of competition. Any foreign investor is extremely careful and seeks to eliminate any risks when investing their capital in any project. It has been requested that iron guarantees that his investments will not only remain safe and sound, but will also bring profit to both sides. The best solution is providing macroeconomic stability with the cooperation and partnership of world initiatives organizations.

We analyze social-economic models of countries with developed information econ¬omies using group method of data handling. We identified the determinants of optimal model for social and economic development of countries with developed information societies. The experience of countries with developed information economy show that their success and high level of competitiveness rely on adequate determination of prospective development direc¬tions and effective implementation of innovations in production. Countries-leaders by IT-in¬dustry, show higher indicators of competitiveness and living standards. The high employment rates guarantee the dynamic economy and civil society. Implementing strategies for social and economic development of countries with developed information economy maximally ensure the protection of national economic interests. Therefore, the models for sustainable social and economic development objectively form the basis of economic security.

Abstract Background The rules of attack in table tennis tactics have been discovered by the coaches and researchers of the Chinese table tennis team (CTTT) through long-term practice. However, they are only empirical judgements and have not been objectively verified. Methods The software "Table Tennis Master" has been used to analyse 200 matches of top players of CTTT against various opponents in recent years to obtain detailed statistics by analysing the effect of attack in the end line (AIEL) and attack out of the end line (AOEL). Results (1) The scoring rate of the players was high after AIEL but very low after AOEL (p < 0.05); (2) the round of service (serve/receive) and level of skills had little influence on the effect of AIEL and AOEL; and (3) the timing of attack had a great influence on the effect of AIEL and AOEL (r > 0.9). Conclusions In the high-level table tennis match, the rules of AIEL and AOEL are scientific. In accordance with the rules, the complex tactics can be simplified to the two concepts, AIEL and AOEL.

Economic development has been associated with structural changes in the national economies. On the path of its economic development, India has reached a level where there is predominance of service sector and it has become the mainstay of the growth process especially over the last ten years. Uniqueness and sudden growthpattern of service sector of India needs to be recognised, understood and analysed with its implications for long term development strategy and policy. It is against this backdrop, that the present study has been designed. It is an attempt to study the trends and implications of sectoral growth with special reference to service sector in India. The analysis brings out the fact that in comparison to the world scenario, growth of service sector in India is not so pronounced. The study has found that except for the service sector hardly any significant change can be identified in the growth performances of the other two sectors in the post-reforms period. A striking feature of India's development is that growth in Indian service sector is not accompanied by additional employment opportunities, which have brought structural imbalances. The results reveal trade hotel, transport and communication as one of the most contributing sector of service sector to GDP. The study emphasised that the services sector is one of the areas, where India needs to focus on sharply to increase its share in the global services trade. However, it is imperative that the industrial and agricultural sectors also grow rapidly but unfortunately till now; the relatively jobless nature of growth in India's services sector underscores this need.

For many enterprises, ensuring their economic development is a required condition for maintaining a high level of economic efficiency for a long period of time. Economic development affords an opportunity to gain certain long-term competitive advantages that enable business entities to survive in the face of adverse environmental conditions. However, ensuring the economic development of enterprises is a difficult task, the solution of which requires the creation and operation of an effective mechanism for such provision. The development of ensuring mechanism to the economic development of enterprises should be based on appropriate theoretical principles. The research aim is to establish the essence, grouping of species and determining the sequence mechanism functioning of economic development of enterprises. It is shown that this mechanism can be interpreted as an ordered relationships set between the organizational structure elements of the enterprise economic development and between these elements and its external environment, carried out in the form of information flows, as well as the characteristics of these relationships (regarding their content and distribution methods) and procedures for their generation, which are based on the laws of rational business decisions. The mechanism types for ensuring the enterprises economic development were grouped by the number of criteria, duration of use, the coverage degree of the solved tasks, the amount of means used to achieve the objectives, the essence of algorithms for making business decisions and other features. The main stages of the mechanism functioning for ensuring the enterprises economic development were allocated, namely: goals and objectives formation of enterprise economic activity in the context of ensuring its economic development; procedures creation for developing business decisions; drawing up plans and programs for the implementation measures to ensure the enterprise economic development; making business decisions, monitoring their implementation and possible adjustments. The use proposed sequence of mechanism functioning of enterprise economic development in the practice of their activities increases the validity of economic decisions.

This study examined whether individual differences in the vividness of visual imagery influenced performance on a novel long-term change detection task. Participants were presented with a sequence of pictures, with each picture and its title displayed for 17  s, and then presented with changed or unchanged versions of those pictures and asked to detect whether the picture had been changed. Cuing the retrieval of the picture's image, by presenting the picture's title before the arrival of the changed picture, facilitated change detection accuracy. This suggests that the retrieval of the picture's representation immunizes it against overwriting by the arrival of the changed picture. The high and low vividness participants did not differ in overall levels of change detection accuracy. However, in replication of Gur and Hilgard (1975) , high vividness participants were significantly more accurate at detecting salient changes to pictures compared to low vividness participants. The results suggest that vivid images are not characterised by a high level of detail and that vivid imagery enhances memory for the salient aspects of a scene but not all of the details of a scene. Possible causes of this difference, and how they may lead to an understanding of individual differences in change detection, are considered.

A project for the long-term strategy of Russian break-through into post-industrial society is suggested which is directed at transformation of the hi-tech complex into the leading factor of economic development. The thesis is substantiated that there is an opportunity to realize such a strategy in case Russia shifts towards the mechanism of the monetary base growth generally accepted in developed countries: the Central Bank increases the quantity of "strong" money by means of purchasing state securities and allocates the increment of money in question according to budget priorities. At the same time for the realization of the said strategy it is necessary to partially restore savings lost during the hyperinflation period of 1992-1994 and default of 1998 and to secure development of the bank system as well as an increase of the volume of long-term credits on this base.

Transformations in the sphere of federal relations concern the most important directions of the reforming processes in the country. However, not all proposed and actually developing components of the federal reform seem well-argued and corresponding to long-term, strategic interests of the Russian statehood. The basic course of reform should meet the objective requirements of further decentralization of governing economic and social processes and the need to ensure strengthening the responsibility of RF subjects’ executive bodies and local self-management for steady social and economic development of their territories. The solution of these problems calls for a new model of federal policy of regional development, specification of some important components of the municipal reform as well as inserting certain amendments into the system of intergovernmental fiscal relations in order to stir up their stimulating function.
