The subject of this paper is the contrast effect in negotiations from the behavioral economics perspective. We conducted an experimental study using a "divorce litigation game" with complete information about payoffs aimed at testing whether participants are prone to context-dependent decisions. The sample was created by 100 law students from the Faculty of Law of the University of Niš. In a "between subjects" design 100 different participants were tested in the control and treatment group. The main finding is that there is a statistically significant difference between the two groups, thus confirming the presence of the contrast effect. The study opens the door to further real experiments with an emphasis on other subjects, such as lawyers, checking if they are so "rational"

The aim of this study is to investigate the nutritional approaches of student athletes studying at the university during the coronavirus outbreak period. Participants consisted of students studying and doing sports at the University. 446 students, 246 males and 200 females, participated in the study. Besides the personal form, students were filled the questionnaire testing questionnaire. Students voluntarily participated. The surveys were done on social media. Nutritional habits questionnaire consists of 12 questions. In the preparation of the survey questions, the questions proved validity of the researches which have been done on the subject before have been used. SPSS 23.00 package program was used in statistical analyses. Kolmogorov-Smirnov test was performed to test whether the data was normally distributed and it was determined that the data showed normal distribution. Independent t-test, paired t-test, unidirectional variance analysis and LSD tests were used in statistical operations. There was no significant difference in students' nutrition approaches by gender, both in the pre-outbreak period and in the outbreak period points (p> 0.05). Nutrition scores were significantly increased during the outbreak period (p <0.001). A significant difference was found between the students who felt bad before the epidemic and those who felt well before the epidemic and their nutritional scores according to the levels they felt (p <0.05). A significant difference was found between the pre-outbreak period and post-epidemic nutrition scores of the sports faculty students (p <0.05). During the coronavirus epidemic, university student athletes have either increased their nutritional opportunities or have changed their eating habits positively to keep their immune systems strong or both. The fact that sports faculty students have better nutrition compared to other faculty students can be attributed to their taking courses in nutrition, health and similar. It is recommended to give lectures or seminars on nutrition to athlete students. Keywords: Student, Nutrition, Sports Nutrition, Nutritional Approach, Covid-19

Objectives: This study aim to determine sequence of Mozart songs in the analyzing differences in dendritic density of cerebellum and cerebellum of new born Rattus novergicusMaterials and Methods: Experimental study randomized post test only control group design using Rattus norvegicus. Animal subjects were divided into three groups which were control group, and the treatment group that were given exposure to default sequence and reversed sequence of Mozart's music from gestation day 10. We used a comparison test in the analysis expression of BDNF.Results: In the cerebrum there was a significant difference in the Mozart group in reverse rather than with Mozart standard sequence and in standard Mozart group with no exposure group, with p=0.003 and p=0.000. In the cerebellum there was a significant difference in the group in reverse rather than with standard Mozart and in the standard Mozart group with the control group, with p=0.000 and p=0.000. However, there was no significant difference between control group and Mozart group upside down in cerebrum and cerebellum with p=0.109 and p=0.077Conclusion: The density of dendrites in the cerebrum and cerebellum of Rattus norvegicus newborn exposed to Mozart's music during pregnancy with standard Mozart sequence was higher than that in those receiving reverse order and without exposure. There were no significant differences between the density of the cerebrum and cerebellum dendrites between groups exposed to reversed sequence of Mozart composition and those without exposure.

Jumlah perokok aktif saat ini semakin meningkat sehingga perokok pasif dan residu yang tersisa atau paparan asap tersier juga meningkat. Salah satu dampak buruk rokok dapat menyebabkan dislipidemia, di antaranya peningkatan kadar kolesterol total dan trigliserida. Tujuan penelitian adalah menganalisis pengaruh paparan asap rokok tersier terhadap kadar kolesterol total dan trigliserida. Penelitian ini merupakan eksperimental in vivo dengan subjek penelitian mencit yang dibagi menjadi dua kelompok, yaitu kelompok kontrol yang tidak diberikan perlakuan dan kelompok perlakuan yang diberikan paparan asap rokok tersier selama 29 hari. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa tidak terdapat perbedaan kadar kolesterol dan trigliserida antara kelompok kontrol dan kelompok perlakuan (p>0,05). Hasil ini mengindikasikan bahwa paparan asap rokok tersier belum memengaruhi kadar kolesterol total dan trigliserida. Durasi paparan asap rokok akut dengan intensitas ringan yang diberikan pada penelitian ini diduga belum memengaruhi metabolisme lipid. EFFECT OF THIRDHAND SMOKE EXPOSURE ON TOTAL CHOLESTEROL AND TRIGLYCERIDE LEVEL IN MICENowadays, an increase in the number of active smokers also indicates an increase in passive smokers and residual smoke or thirdhand smoke exposure. One of the impact of cigarette is dyslipidemia, characterized by elevation level of total cholesterol and triglycerides. The objective of the study was to analyze the effect of thirdhand smoke exposure on the level of total cholesterol and triglycerides. This study used an in vivo experimental design with one cigarette a day and 20 mice as the subject. The subjects divided into 2 groups, the control group received no treatment and the treatment group received thirdhand smoke exposure for 29 days. The result of the study showed there was no significant difference in the level of total cholesterol and triglycerides among the control group and the treatment group (p>0.05). The result indicated that thirdhand smoke exposure had no effect on the level of total cholesterol and triglycerides. The duration of acute cigarette smoke exposure with low intensity given in this study suspected to not affect the lipid metabolism.

This experimental study tested the assumption that ingratiation through the researcher's frank request for compliance yields higher response rates to mail surveys. The hypothesis was tested by inserting a cartoon of the researcher “begging” the recipient within the treatment group to respond. Results suggest that begging achieved a reduction in nonresponse within the treatment group ( n = 116). Also, begging made no significant difference along the dimensions of job function, gender, or seniority.

Background. It is expected that a combination of amniotic membrane stem cell metabolite product (AMSC-MP) and vitamin E after fractional CO2 laser as laser-assisted drug delivery (LADD) will provide better effects in photoaging treatment as the combination reaches the target. This promises an option for photoaging therapy in the future. Materials and Methods. Sixty women with photoaged skins were involved in this experimental study. They were then divided into two groups. The treatment group received a topical combination of AMSC-MP and vitamin E, and the control group received AMSC-MP alone after fractional CO2 laser. The treatment was repeated three times. Result. The Janus assessment results showed a significant difference in pores in the third observation, and the average pore improvements in the treatment group were better than the control group. Wrinkle, UV spot, and polar spot did not show any significant difference. Conclusion. A combination of the amniotic membrane stem cell metabolite product (AMSC-MP) and vitamin E after fractional CO2 laser as LADD only improves pores in photoaged skins.

The article proposes a model for forecasting the success of student’s learning. The model is a Markov process with continuous time, such as the process of “death and reproduction”. As the parameters of the process, the intensities of the processes of obtaining and assimilating information are offered, and the intensity of the process of assimilating information takes into account the attitude of the student to the subject being studied. As a result of applying the model, it is possible for each student to determine the probability of a given formation of ownership of the material being studied in the near future. Thus, in the presence of an automated information system of the university, the implementation of the model is an element of the decision support system by all participants in the educational process. The examples given in the article are the results of an experiment conducted at the Institute of Space and Information Technologies of Siberian Federal University under conditions of blended learning, that is, under conditions when classroom work is accompanied by independent work with electronic resources.
