В настоящее время в экономическом развитии не только отдельных регионов, но и всей страны особую роль играет состояние добывающей промышленности, в основном топливно-энергетических ресурсов и цветных металлов. В Российской Федерации доходы, получаемые за счет добычи и экспорта минерального сырья, в стоимостном выражении составляют около 80% российского экспорта. В статье рассматриваются экономические аспекты недропользования в северных регионах ресурсного типа, специализирующихся на добыче высоколиквидных минеральных ресурсов: нефти, газа, угля, алмазов и золота с целью выявления сильных и слабых сторон. Анализируются минерально-сырьевой и производственный потенциалы добывающей промышленности регионов. Методом математической статистики оценивается уровень зависимости социального развития регионов от добывающей промышленности по шкале Чеддока. На основе факторного анализа и оценки экономических составляющих недропользования и региональной статистики за 2010-2020 гг. выявлены высокий уровень ресурсной ориентированности экономики, капиталоемкости и фондоемкости добывающей промышленности и моноспециализация экономики во всех северных регионах ресурсного типа, высокий уровень зависимости социального развития от добывающей промышленности в Республике Саха (Якутия), Ханты-Мансийском – Югра и Ямало-Ненецком автономном округах. Выделены негативные и позитивные факторы устойчивого развития добывающей промышленности, также определены ключевые моменты перспективного развития экономики северных регионов ресурсного типа. At present, the state of the mining industry, mainly fuel and energy resources and non-ferrous metals, plays a special role in the economic development of not only individual regions, but also the whole country. In the Russian Federation, revenues derived from the extraction and export of mineral raw materials in value terms account for about 80% of Russian exports. The article discusses the economic aspects of subsurface use in the northern resource-type regions specializing in the extraction of highly liquid mineral resources: oil, gas, coal, diamonds and gold in order to identify strengths and weaknesses. The mineral raw materials and production potentials of the mining industry of the regions are analyzed. The method of mathematical statistics evaluates the level of dependence of the social development of regions on the extractive industry on the Cheddock scale. Based on a factor analysis and assessment of the economic components of subsurface use and regional statistics for 2010-2020, there was revealed a high level of resource orientation of the economy; capital intensity of the mining industry and monospecialization of the economy in all northern resource-type regions; a high level of dependence of social development on the extractive industry in the Sakha Republic (Yakutia), Khanty-Mansiysk-Yugra and Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrugs. The negative and positive factors of the sustainable development of the mining industry are highlighted, and the key points of the prospective development of the economy of the northern regions of the resource type are also identified.

The COVID-19 pandemic has affected our nation and economy gravely, which has led to exploiting ways of setting norms for the effective distribution of healthcare advancements beyond geographical boundaries. In this paper, we propose an approach for the rapid advancement and effective distribution of healthcare in India through the enormous potential in telemedicine and haptic technology. We further address the issues in India's current healthcare infrastructure occurring due to non-availability and vacancy of doctors, social development, such as the willingness of people to invest in telemedicine by statistically analyzing bar diagrams, tabulated data, and self-assembled visual graphics. Our study shows that the potential of technology-aided approaches such as telemedicine and haptic systems in healthcare is enormous, and through effective dissemination of awareness, training, and stakeholder involvement, telemedicine and haptics could change the norms in the advancement in the healthcare system of India

Abstract Life History Theory (LHT) predicts a monotonous relationship between affluence and the rate of innovations and strong correlations within a cluster of behavioral features. Although both predictions can be true in specific cases, they are incorrect in general. Therefore, the author's explanations may be right, but they do not prove LHT and cannot be generalized to other apparently similar processes.

Purpose What does it mean to be social? In addition, how is that different from behaving socially appropriately? The purpose of this clinical focus article is to tackle these two questions along with taking a deeper look into how communication challenges in childhood apraxia of speech impact social competencies for young children. Through the lens of early social development and social competency, this clinical focus article will explore how speech motor challenges can impact social development and what happens when young learners miss early opportunities to grow socially. While not the primary focus, the clinical focus article will touch upon lingering issues for individuals diagnosed with childhood apraxia of speech as they enter the school-aged years. Conclusion Finally, it will address some foundational aspects of intervention and offer ideas and suggestions for structuring therapy to address both speech and social goals.

Abstract Learning to listen and speak are well-established preludes for reading, writing, and succeeding in mainstream educational settings. Intangibles beyond the ubiquitous test scores that typically serve as markers for progress in children with hearing loss are embedded in descriptions of the educational and social development of four young women. All were diagnosed with severe-to-profound or profound hearing loss as toddlers, and all were fitted with hearing aids and given listening and spoken language therapy. Compiling stories across the life span provides insights into what we can be doing in the lives of young children with hearing loss.
