Aim. The presented study aims to describe the proposed typology of regions based on their  predisposition to scientific and technological development in the context of hereditary industrial, social, and institutional determinants of economic territorial development.  Tasks. The authors develop a methodological approach to forming a basic criterion for the classification of regions; develop a methodology for the classification of regions based on their  predisposition to scientific and technological development with allowance for the economic  impact of their hereditary core; test the authors’ developments on the regions of the Russian  Federation.  Methods. This study uses tools for modeling the hereditary socio-economic core of regions based  on the calculation of Frobenius norms to identify the prevailing dynamic trends in territorial  development, and a matrix method for developing a regional typology. The methodology applied  by the authors focuses on identifying territories that are more susceptible to technological  transformations, including those that ensure the significant impact of these transformations  on the national economy.  Results. The study tests the authors’ developments on Russian regions and provides two  typologies. The first typology groups regions according to criteria such as stable positive  predisposition, permissible positive predisposition, negative predisposition, and stable negative predisposition to scientific and technological development. The second typology identifies regions with hereditary capital, regions with useful heredity, regions with defective  useful heredity, regions with the effect of a large hereditary base, regions with defective  heredity, and regions with significant defective heredity. The developed typologies make it  possible to identify regions that serve as the opposite poles of scientific and technological  transformations as well as high-risk regions with unjustified investment in innovative economic activities.  Conclusions. Industrially developed regions are more predisposed to scientifific and technological  development, and expansion of innovations will be implemented faster in these regions compared  with others. The Sverdlovsk and Tyumen regions have an elastic industrial heritage, which is  manifested in the successful implementation of a wide range of innovative tasks. Comparative  analysis also shows that the Ural Federal District has the most favorable industrial, social, and  institutional hereditary determinants responsible for the susceptibility of the territory to technological transformations compared with other regions, which makes it a potential center for  the scientific and technological development of the national economy.

The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Third Edition (DSM-III) is often said to have provided a significant paradigm shift in how psychopathology is diagnosed. The authors of DSM-5 have the empirical support and the opportunity to lead the field of psychiatry to a comparably bold new future in diagnosis and classification. The purpose of this chapter is to address the validity of the categorical and dimensional models for the classification and diagnosis of psychopathology. Considered in particular will be research concerning substance use disorders, mood disorders, and personality disorders. Limitations and concerns with respect to a dimensional classification of psychopathology are also considered. The chapter concludes with a recommendation for a conversion to a more quantitative, dimensional classification of psychopathology.

Abstract Traditional categorical approaches to classifying personality disorders are limited in important ways, leading to a shift in the field to dimensional approaches to conceptualizing personality pathology. Different areas of psychology – personality, developmental, and psychopathology – can be leveraged to understand personality pathology by examining its structure, development, and underlying mechanisms. However, an integrative model that encompasses these distinct lines of inquiry has not yet been proposed. In order to address this gap, we review the latest evidence for dimensional classification of personality disorders based on structural models of maladaptive personality traits, provide an overview of developmental theories of pathological personality, and summarize the Research Domain Criteria (RDoC) initiative, which seeks to understand underlying mechanisms of psychopathology. We conclude by proposing an integrative model of personality pathology development that aims to elucidate the developmental pathways of personality pathology and its underlying mechanisms.

Previous studies of ultraviolet spectral classification have been insufficient to establish a comprehensive classification system for ultraviolet spectra of early-type stars because of inadequate spectral resolution. We have initiated a new study of ultraviolet spectral classification of B stars using high-dispersion IUE archival data. High-dispersion SWP spectra of MK standards and other B stars are retrieved from the IUE archives and numerically degraded to a uniform resolution of 0.25 or 0.50 Å. The spectra (in the form of plots or photowrites) are then visually examined with the aim of setting up a two-dimensional classification matrix. We follow the method used to create the MK classification system for visual spectra. The purpose of this work is to examine the applicability of the MK system (and in particular, the set of standard stars) in the ultraviolet, and to establish classification criteria in this spectral region.

AbstractSuggestions for classification of mental disorders of children and adolescents in DSM-V and ICD-11 have been made, which differ strongly from the current descriptive approach of dimensional classification.These suggestions even comprise a dichotomized system for health care as well as for scientific purposes.Nevertheless it is obvious that we are far behind an “etiological” classification, so that trade-offs have necessarily to be made in DSM-V and ICD-11.Appropriate proposals concern the strict separation of disorders that are typical for children and adolescents as well as for adults.Furthermore a differentiation of diagnosis for infants, toddlers and preschool children is required in both classification systems. As far as it is relevant for treatment, combined diagnosis in DSM-V and subthreshold diagnosis as well as coding-possibilities for findings in molecular biology should be permitted.As personality disorders should only be diagnosed after the age of 16, it is recommended to dimensionally classify personality traits that are pathognomonic for specific symptom patterns and of prognostic relevance.DSM-V and ICD-11 should allow age-specific information on axis-IV. The article discusses the general question of how relational disorders respectively disturbances should be classified and include furthermore special recommendations concerning ICD and DSM categories.

The study is devoted to the current problem of the formation and development of environmental entrepreneurship. The urgency of this problem is substantiated researched the unsatisfactory level of environmental safety of Ukrainian enterprises and the crisis of the environment. The study's purpose was to analyze the economic tools to stimulate environmental entrepreneurship, structural and functional characteristics and classification of tools to determine priority areas for improvement. The study forms a definition of economic tools to stimulate environmental entrepreneurship. Theoretical analysis and structural and functional characteristics of economic tools were performed. A scientific and methodological approach to the classification of economic tools was proposed, which allowed improving the system of its classification. Based on the results of the study, the main directions of development and improvement of economic tools to stimulate environmental entrepreneurship were proposed.

The complexity of understanding the nature of risks, as well as the diversity of their types and manifestations, including financial risks, requires the use of a methodological approach to their classification. Classification of financial risks is of particular importance in the company's activities in order to effectively manage them. The article analyzes the concepts of "risk" and "uncertainty", and provides risk classifications for various reasons. It is concluded that it is possible to control and manage risks through comprehensive accounting and, accordingly, prevention of various types of threats and uncertainties in the company's activities.
