The study of the phenomenon of verbal aggression is devoted to a large number of foreign and domestic intelligence, processed in different schools and areas. One such research center is the School of Communication Studies at Kent State University (UK). Its brilliant representative, the world-famous Professor Dominic A. Infante, together with his colleagues and students, has developed a programmatic line of research and theory of argumentativeness and verbal aggressiveness inspiring many young communication scholars in the field. The object of the article is verbal aggression as a component of conflict communication. The subject is phrasemes denoting a certain type of verbal aggression, selected through a continuous survey of the academic dictionary of phraseology of the Ukrainian. Purpose: to identify and characterize the manifestations of verbal aggression (based on the typology of Dominic A. Infante) in Ukrainian phrasemics. The stated goal motivates the solution of the following tasks: 1) to outline the basic components of the terminological apparatus of the theory of verbal aggression in studies of Dominic A. Infante, his colleagues and students (‘verbal aggressiveness’, ‘verbal aggression’, ‘physical aggression’, ‘manifestation of verbal aggression’); 2) to describe the types of verbal aggression recorded in Ukrainian phrasemics, illustrating a specific communicative situation. Ukrainian phrasemics records all types of verbal aggression proposed by Dominic A. Infante: attack, curse, teasing, ridicule, threat, swearing, nonverbal emblems. A thorough analysis of the source base of the study shows that: а) the verbal aggression contains a negative evaluation nomination and serves as a marker of negative emotions towards the opponent (hostility, dislike, unfriendliness, dissatisfaction, anger, condemnation, evil, etc.); b) the verbal aggression actualizes severe / sharp attack, sensitive attack, attack with excessive demands; sharp condemnation with an ominous wish of failure, disaster, all evil; ridicule with caustic remarks, insulting words; calling someone names, giving nicknames; a promise to cause some evil, trouble; rude, unfriendly words and expressions and the spread of rumors, etc.; c) the attack correlates with swearing / quarreling and is accompanied by sharp, offensive words, condemnation, reproach with varying degrees of intensification; d) the threat is positioned as a warning, a warning about the transition to physical aggression; e) the main nonverbal sign is the look. We see the prospect of research in the further identification of the phrasemic specificity of the verbal aggression in a comparable aspect.

Abstract Torque and drag models estimate downhole forces, torques and moments acting in wellbores and drillstring elements during drilling and completion operations. A comparison was made between soft string and stiff string torque and drag model using conventional survey data. Survey data needed for torque and drag modeling are provided by field surveys. Field survey can be conventional survey or continuous survey. Conventional survey is carried out every 90 to 100ft interval or more and only gives a partial representation of the actual wellpath, micro-doglegs and micro-tortuosities may not be fully captured with this survey. Continuous survey is carried out between 1 to 5ft intervals of the wellbore using high resolution survey tools and captures more the micro-doglegs and micro-tortuosities but more expensive than the conventional survey. Torque and drag simulations were performed using both Soft and Stiff String models for comparison using a novel software package. Data provided includes deviational survey data from conventional survey, drillstring/BHA data, and fluid rheological data. The torque and drag simulation produced results for hook loads and buckling while running-in-hole (RIH) and pulling-out-of-hole (POOH). Results from this study show that prior to buckling, results from soft string and stiff string model are almost identical with minimal differences within the range of 0.8% to 1.6% and these were achieved as open-hole friction factors (CHFF) from 0.1 to 0.25. High buckling risk was detected for OHFF of 0.3. When buckling occurs, the differences in results between the two models become very apparent. This paper showed that in order to use stiff string torque and drag model for a more realistic, representative and more accurate pre-buckling and post-buckling operations in a highly deviated well, a high resolution continuous survey is needed; this will capture more readily, the micro-doglegs and micro-tortuosities in the wellbore paths.

При проведении профилактических осмотров по стоматологической заболеваемостиу детей г. Шымкента были выявлены влияния факторов, как недостаточность знаний и навыков по чистке полости рта и профилактике у большинства из них. Проведение массовых стоматологических осмотров имеет своей целью получение данных, характеризующих пораженность обследованных контингентов основными стоматологическими заболеваниями. Нет необходимости в организации сплошного обследования, так как это требует значительных затрат времени и средств. Поэтому выбран метод гнездного обследования наиболее типичных по структуре населения массивов, внутри которых проводится сплошное обследование. Что является достаточно репрезентативным и дают материалы наиболее точные, соответствующие по изучаемой проблеме.Основные вопросы, включенные в программу стоматологических осмотров, отражали уровень распространения кариеса зубов и интенсивность поражения, включая временных и постоянных зубов, число лиц, нуждающихся в профилактическом обследовании, составление специальных образовательных программ по комплексной профилактики стоматологических заболеваний у детей.Выводы: Таким образом, разработанные и обоснованные программы, позволяют добиться улучшения гигиенического состояния полости рта и улучшить кариесологический статус обследованных When conducting preventive examinations for dental morbidity in children of Shymkent, the influence of factors such as lack of knowledge and skills in cleaning the oral cavity and prevention in most of them was revealed. The purpose of conducting mass dental examinations is to obtain data describing the prevalence of the examined patients with the main dental diseases. There is no need to organize a continuous survey, as this requires significant time and money. Therefore, the method of nesting survey of the most typical massifs in terms of population structure, within which a continuous survey is carried out, was chosen. Which is suffciently representative and provides the most accurate materials relevant to the problem under study.Results and conclusions: The main issues included in the program of dental examinations reflected the level of spread of dental caries and the intensity of the lesion, including temporary and permanent teeth, the number of persons in need of preventive examination, the preparation of special educational programs for the comprehensive prevention of dental diseases in children.

Media coverage in the aftermath of mass shootings frequently documents expressions of sadness and outrage shared by millions of Americans. This type of collective emotion can be a powerful force in establishing shared objectives and motivating political actions. Yet, the rise in mass shootings has not translated into widespread legislative progress toward gun control across the nation. This study is designed to shed light on this puzzle by generating causal evidence on the temporal and geographic scale of collective emotional responses to mass shootings. Using a unique continuous survey on Americans’ daily emotions without reference to specific events, our empirical strategy compares the daily emotions of residents interviewed after to those interviewed before 31 mass shootings within the same city or state where the event occurred. We found that the emotional impact of mass shootings is substantial, but it is local, short-lived, and politicized. These results suggest that if policy reform efforts are to draw on collective emotional responses to these events, they will likely have to start at the local level in the immediate aftermath of a mass shooting.

Сфера спорта является уникальной по своей природе с точки зрения инструментов и методов мотивирования спортсменов. В этой связи крайне важно понимать, опираясь на известные в теории спортивной психологии подходы, какие побудительные факторы в наибольшей степени оказывают влияние на мотивацию спортсмена, определяющую эффективность его развития через призму организационных процедур и методов. Понимание и проведение глубокого анализа психологических особенностей настройки мотивации спортсмена и действенных механизмов воздействия на психику, исследование его ценностных ориентаций, творческое взаимодействие участников подготовки – все это является залогом успеха не только раскрытия потенциал спортсмена, но и его реализации в максимально возможной степени. Решению поставленного вопроса посвящено настоящее исследование. В нем предпринимается попытка обосновать необходимость исследования мотивации спортсмена через призму процессно-динамического подхода, предполагающего трансформацию мотивационных факторов во времени. Опираясь на методы сплошного опроса и анкетирования, получены результаты, оценивающие «мотивационный каркас» современных спортсменов. Это позволило не только выявить текущие среднестатистические характеристики мотивационных настроек, но и соотнести их с прошлыми данными, полученными в предыдущие эпохи общественного строя. The field of sports is unique in its nature in terms of tools and methods of motivating athletes. In this respect, it is extremely important to understand, based on the approaches known in the theory of sports psychology, which motivating factors most influence the motivation of an athlete, which determines the effectiveness of his development through the prism of organizational procedures and methods. Understanding and conducting a deep analysis of the psychological characteristics of the athlete's motivation setting and effective mechanisms on influence on the psyche, studying his value orientations, creative interaction of training participants – all this is the key to success not only to reveal the potential of the athlete, but also to realize it to the maximum extent possible. The present study is devoted to the solution of this problem. It attempts to justify the need to study the motivation of an athlete through the prism of a process-dynamic approach, which involves the transformation of motivational factors over time. Based on the methods of a continuous survey and questionnaire, the results were obtained that assess the "motivational framework" of modern athletes. This allowed us not only to identify the current average characteristics of motivational settings, but also to correlate them with past data obtained in previous epochs of the social system.

<p>                The quality of the Black Sea ecosystem is partly but importantly dependent on the survival and sustainability of the top predator populations. It is difficult to foresee all consequences for the regional biodiversity if cetaceans disappear as it had happened with the Mediterranean monk seals in the past. During 7 days, between 30 September and 7 October, 2019, a joint oceanographical survey was made with a multipurpose R/V Mare Nigrum in offshore as well as deep sea locations, within the Romanian (RO), Bulgarian (BG) and western Turkish (TK) national waters of the Black Sea in the frame of ANEMONE project. The total track line was around 700 nautical miles and the sampled area covered 9754,58 km<sup>2</sup>. Observations were made of cetaceans and floating litter, following line transect sampling method, with a single platform (2 observers, on the left and right of the vessel bridge) over 380.44 km of transects. A total of 54 cetacean sightings and 81 floating litter items were recorded. All the three species, short-beaked common dolphin (<em>Delphinus delphis</em> ssp. <em>ponticus</em>), Black Sea bottlenose dolphin (<em>Tursiops truncatus</em> ssp. <em>ponticus</em>), and Black Sea harbour porpoise (<em>Phocoena phocoena </em>ssp. <em>relicta</em>), were registered with a similar density (individuals/km<sup>2</sup>), 0.012 for RO sector and 0.013 for BG-TK sector. The number of debris varied between 1 and 24 items, reaching 5.26± 5.93 items on average. Among the transects, 53% contained less than 5 items and only 13% were with more than 10 items. Based on these results, the average density of floating macro-litter in BG waters was found 2.43 ± 2.4 items/km<sup>2</sup>, 1.73 ± 1.24 items/km<sup>2 </sup>in the RO waters and 2.43±2.17 items/km<sup>2</sup> in TR waters. This study was the first to make a joint and continuous survey effort for both cetaceans and litter simultaneously in the Black Sea.</p><p><strong>Key words:</strong>  Black Sea, cetaceans, marine litter, joint cruise, ANEMONE project.</p>

The smart training technologies include several parts. Their joint use allows making students of technical higher educational institutions interested in studying history. This article describes the experience of involving students of a construction university in research activities in history classes, when studying the topic of the Great Patriotic War. The first stage of the work involves the study of the student’s historical memory, the students’ perceptions of this war through direct communication of the professor with students, the integrated use of sociological, linguistic, pedagogical, psychological methods. In the framework of a continuous survey of 346 students, an expressed emotional coloring of the image of war in the student consciousness and solidarity of students in the need to preserve the memory of the war were revealed. Students classified the written and oral stories of the contemporaries, primarily their relatives, as the most reliable sources on the history of the war. Given the influence of the family war memory, professors form students' interest in research activities. At the next stage, an individual strategy for writing a family history of wartime is developed for each student; recommendations are given on working with databases, information available on the Internet, family and state archives, libraries.

Skill-discounting is the term often used to describe when the knowledge, qualifications and experience of migrants are assessed by employers as being less valuable than those of domestic job seekers. As a result of skill-discounting, migrants usually struggle to obtain employment comparable to their pre-migration job. Using analysis of covariance of the Continuous Survey of Australia’s Migrants dataset of 109,000 migrants collected between 2009 and 2011, this article investigates whether male and female migrants experience skill-discounting differently. We compare the extent, form, processes and outcomes of skill-discounting between male and female self-initiated migrants. Female migrants are less likely to be skill-discounted, are skill-discounted for different reasons, find replacement jobs that require similar skill but lower levels of responsibility and pay considerably less than for their male counterparts, and report marginally greater job satisfaction. This article contributes to the migration literature by identifying the gendered effects of the skill-discounting of migrant expertise. It also contributes to the public policy literature by making a series of recommendations to minimise skill-discounting.

AbstractWadi El Rayan is located in Egypt in the Sahara ecoregion the Palearctic ecozone (the world’s largest hot desert). The total area of Wadi El Rayan is 1759km2. The aim of this work was to study the ecosystems, compare species composition, species richness and species diversity of the study sites in the Wadi El Rayan protected area and the distributions of plants in the different landform. The field observations found that there is a low diversity and number of plant species around the lakes, in particular a decline in vegetation cover in accordance with a dramatic decrease in the water level in the lakes compared to earlier studies. The reduction of water levels due to decreased water supply is considered the main threat facing ecosystems and biodiversity in the lake area which requires a continuous survey of flora and measures to be implemented to conserve the natural vegetation in the area. Based on investigations of the spontaneous flora of Wadi El Rayan in 2018, 18 taxa of vascular plants were recorded. This inventory was compared with published records of investigations made in 1998, 2002 and 2014. A total of 18 vascular plant species belonging to 14 families were recorded in the wetland and desert ecosystems around the lakes of Wadi El Rayan. The vegetation mainly consists of sparsely distributed xerophytic and halophytic plants except in the wetland ecosystem around the lakes where it is characterized by some hydrophytic and halophytic plants. The family with the highest number of species was Poaceae followed by Zygophyllaceae. The results showed that a higher number of species was recorded from the Lower Lake (13 species) than the Upper Lake (10 species) and (5 species) for the connecting channel. The most frequently recorded species were Phragmites australis, Tamarix nilotica, Juncus rigidus and Alhagi graecorum: the first two species were the most successful species as they grow in a variety of ecosystems and habitats.

O artigo discute a distribuição da renda domiciliar per capita brasileira de forma a avaliar o grau de progressividade ou regressividade das parcelas das parcelas de renda selecionadas. O objetivo do trabalho é esclarecer como os rendimentos da atividade de pessoas ocupadas no setor agrícola contribuem para reforçar ou não a desigualdade da distribuição da renda domiciliar per capita (RDPC) no Brasil. Utilizando os microdados da Pesquisa Nacional por Amostra de Domicílios Contínua de 2017, mostra-se que a classificação das pessoas ocupadas conforme sua atividade principal em agrícola ou não agrícola não pode ser confundida com sua classificação como rural ou urbana. Nada menos que 62,4% das pessoas ocupadas residentes na área rural do estado de São Paulo têm ocupação principal não agrícola. A decomposição do índice de Gini da distribuição da renda domiciliar per capita conforme parcelas dessa renda permite avaliar o grau de progressividade ou regressividade das parcelas. O rendimento proveniente do Bolsa-Família é o mais progressivo (bem focalizado nos pobres). Quando se separa o rendimento do trabalho conforme setor de ocupação, verifica-se que a parcela associada ao setor agrícola é a mais progressiva e que a associada ao setor público é fortemente regressiva. AbstractUsing data from the new continuous survey of household’s sample (PNAD continua) for 2017, it is initially shown how the classification of occupied people according to their main activity as agricultural or non-agricultural is much different from their classification according to rural or urban residence. In the State of São Paulo, 62.4% of occupied people on rural area have a non-agricultural main activity. The factor component decomposition of the Gini index leads to the evaluation of the degree of progressivity of each income component. The transfers from the Bolsa-Família program are very progressive, being well focalized on the poor.  When earnings are distinguished according to sector of activity, it is shown that agricultural earnings are the most progressive and that public employee’s earnings are strongly regressive.Keywords: Inequality;Income distribution; Gini index; Concentration ratios Brazil;
