Characteristics of mental stability of employees of the security department with different terms of service in the penitentiary system of the Russian Federation

The current state of the features of the professional activity of correctional officers is considered one of the most difficult and dangerous, especially for services that perform non-military services with weapons. The fact that employees have firearms with them during their service radically distinguishes their official duties from the work of other departments and services. As practice shows, even employees with long seniority may not always correctly anticipate and prevent the occurrence of crisis situations that may arise in circumstances specific to criminal enforcement activities: continuous readiness to act in an extreme situation (hostage-taking, escapes, riots, group disobedience, etc.), an increased level of danger to human life and health (the likelihood of using weapons to kill). All of the above places special requirements on the training of this category of employees, including psychological. Of no small importance is the development of the mental stability of the employees of the security department of the penitentiary service to the stress factors of professional activity, such as strict legal regulations, service with weapons, high responsibility for decisions made, service in any weather conditions, violation of sleep and wakefulness, etc.

The origin and development of gymnastics events in France

The article analyzes the main stages of the origin and formation of gymnastics events in France since the beginning of the XIX century to 1942 on the basis of the works of leading French scientists. The development of gymnastics in France does not attract much attention of Ukrainian specialists whose scientific interests are related to the study of physical education and sports in European countries, so the practical issues of our research will complement and expand the relevant courses on the history of physical education for students in Ukraine. The purpose of the article is to study the main historical aspects of the development of gymnastics events in France. To achieve it, the following tasks should be performed: to analyze the literature on research issues; to identify key dates in the history of gymnastics in France; to describe the role of personalities who have contributed most to the evolution of the field in this country. According to the results of the study, we conclude that the greatest influence on the development of gymnastics in France since the beginning of the XIX century to 1942 was made by Francisco Amorós, Napoléon Laisné, Eugène Paz, Charles Cazalet, Joseph Sansbœuf, Georges Demenÿ, Philippe Auguste Tissié. In the middle of the XIX century the institutionalization of gymnastics took place at the level of hospitals (1847), military services (1852) and school (1854). In the last quarter of the XIX century, physical education became a compulsory subject in primary and secondary schools for boys and girls. The Union of Gymnastics Societies of France was founded September 28, 1873 by Eugène Paz. In 1942, it was merged with the French Womenʼs Gymnastics and Physical Education Federation, which formed French Gymnastics Federation. French gymnasts since the beginning of Olympic Games in Paris (1900) have always shown consistently high results at competitions and tournaments of various scales, but since the 1930s it has begun to decline. Our further research will focus on a thorough study of the history of womenʼs gymnastics in France as well as the evolution of this sport in the period since 1942 to 2022.

Is the privatization of state functions always, and only intrinsically, wrong? On Chiara Cordelli’s The Privatized State

The legitimacy of putting public activities – such as providing education and welfare, but also running prisons or providing military services – into the hands of private companies is hotly contested. In The Privatized State, Chiara Cordelli puts forward an original argument, from a Kantian perspective, for why it is problematic: it replaces the omnilateral will of all citizens, which is realized through public institutions, with the unilateral will of agents to whom these activities have been delegated. While adding an important dimension to the debate, I am not fully convinced that private institutions always fail to realize the omnilateral will, and that this is the only, or always most central, normative problem of privatization. Instead, many concrete cases of privatization seem normatively overdetermined in their wrongness. Nonetheless, Cordelli’s brilliant discussion invites us to rethink these phenomena from an important angle and helps us to better understand what an ideal civil service would look like.

Free the Bun: Prevalence of Alopecia Among Active Duty Service Women, Fiscal Years 2010-2019

ABSTRACT Introduction Active duty service women (ADSW) constitute 16% of the force. The prevalence of alopecia, a dermatologic condition characterized by hair loss, is understudied in regard to hairstyle regulations across the U.S. military services. Alopecia has several causes; one of which is due to tension on the scalp secondary to tight hairstyles. In the U.S., alopecia has a lifetime prevalence of 1.7-2.1%; no previous studies which evaluated this condition in service women were found. Materials and Methods We used the Military Health System Data Repository to perform a retrospective study to assess the prevalence of alopecia in ADSW from fiscal years (FYs) 2010 to 2019. Statistical analyses included descriptive statistics on patient demographics and trend analysis on the prevalence of alopecia over the 10-year study period. Results A total of 498,219 ADSW were identified over the 10-year study period, of which 2.40% had a diagnosis of alopecia. Overall, the prevalence of alopecia decreases over the 10-year period, with two observed periods of slight increase (FY 2013 to 2014 and FY 2018 to 2019) when comparing prevalence year-to-year. Of those diagnosed, the majority were young, Black, with a senior enlisted rank, and in the U.S. Army. Conclusion The prevalence of alopecia in ADSW is slightly higher than that in civilian populations and is most likely underreported. It is more commonly diagnosed in Black women than would be expected based on ratios of this population in military service. Policy changes to ensure that traction alopecia is a qualifying medical condition for Veterans Affairs disability compensation, mechanisms are in place for more specific coding in the electronic medical record, and treatment options to be covered by TRICARE are recommended. All U.S. military services should consider updating and evaluating regulations to improve the health and quality of life of ADSW.

Attributes of Land Forces for Approaching Future Full Spectrum Operations

At present, the current strategies used to address security issues are increasingly changing, this constant being founded mainly on the volatility of behaviors of different target audiences. In the same direction, the various military services, including Land Forces, supporting national and allied strategies, are looking for solutions that can continuously improve the military response, targeting both operational and force reconfiguration issues. Therefore, the present study aims, firstly, to highlight the attributes of Land Forces for addressing future operations, and secondly, to clarify the future framework of the FSO where the organic military structures will have to operate to fulfill the required tasks and missions.
