Concept Of Interaction Research Articles

All click and no play? Game comics, comic games, and user agency

ABSTRACT This contribution examines game-like digital comics, departing from Daniel Merlin Goodbrey’s concept of “game comics” that he discusses in his doctoral dissertation and in following articles (2017, 2020). Game comics, as the name suggests, would be interactive, playful comics, closely related to video games. In Goodbrey’s words, they are “a type of hypercomic that presents some of the key features of a game and uses some of the key features of the comic form as the basis for its gameplay” (2020, p. 45, "Game comics: Theory and design"). Firstly, the article defines comics, establishing a new taxonomy of digital comics (distinguishing between “homothetic,” “linked,” and “expanded”) and positioning game comics as belonging to digital ones, yet as much more fluid objects than Goodbrey’s. Secondly, it reframes the concept of interactivity within a novel framework, envisioning four types of user agency (narrative, interpretive, material, and social) that a semiotic text encourages or hinders. Lastly, it discusses a selection of game comics and reconsiders the relation the concept bears to that ofcomic games (Backe, 2020, "Game-comics and comic-games") – video games remediating comics’ affordances, seen as game comics’ hypothetical reverse. In interrogating the specifics of these objects and reflecting on the different types of user agency they prompt, the article concludes that the space between comics and games is fuzzier than taxonomies considering media in isolation would suggest.

A comprehensive multivariate approach for GxE interaction analysis in early maturing rice varieties.

The genotype evaluation process requires analysis of GxE interactions to ascertain the responsiveness of a genotype to various environments, including the development of early maturing rice. However, the concept of interaction is relatively specific to grain yield. In contrast, grain yield is highly polygenic, so assessment should be carried out with multivariate approaches. Therefore, multivariate assessment in evaluating GxE interactions should be developed, especially for early maturing rice genotypes. The study aimed to develop a comprehensive multivariate approach to improve the comprehensiveness and responsiveness of GxE interaction analysis. The study was conducted in Bone and Soppeng districts, South Sulawesi, Indonesia, in two seasons. The study used a randomized complete block design, where replications were nested across two seasons and locations. Two check varieties and five early maturing varieties were replicated three times in each environment. Based on this study, a new approach to GxE interaction analysis based on multiple regression index analysis, BLUP analysis, factor analysis, and path analysis was considered adequate, especially for evaluating early maturing rice. This approach combined days to harvest, biological yield, and grain yield in multiple linear regression with weighting based on the combination of all analyses. The effectiveness of the GxE interaction assessment was reflected by high coefficient of determination (R2) and gradient (b) values above 0.8 and 0.9, respectively. Inpari 13 (R2=0.9; b=1.05), Cakrabuana (R2=0.98; b=0.99), and Padjajaran (R2=0.95; b=1.07) also have good grain yield with days to harvesting consideration, namely 7.83ton ha-1, 98.12 days; 7.37ton ha-1, 95.52 days; and 7.29ton ha-1, 97.23 days, respectively. Therefore, this index approach can be recommended in GxE interaction analysis to evaluate early maturing rice genotypes. Furthermore, Inpari 13, Cakrabuana, and Padjajaran are recommended as adaptive early maturing varieties.

Photon Momentum Enabled Light Absorption in Silicon.

Photons do not carry sufficient momentum to induce indirect optical transitions in semiconducting materials, such as silicon, necessitating the assistance of lattice phonons to conserve momentum. Compared to direct bandgap semiconductors, this renders silicon a less attractive material for a wide variety of optoelectronic applications. In this work, we introduce an alternative strategy to fulfill the momentum-matching requirement in indirect optical transitions. We demonstrate that when confined to scales below ∼3 nm, photons acquire sufficient momentum to allow electronic transitions at the band edge of Si without the assistance of a phonon. Confined photons allow simultaneous energy and momentum conservation in two-body photon-electron scattering; in effect, converting silicon into a direct bandgap semiconductor. We show that this less-explored concept of light-matter interaction leads to a marked increase in the absorptivity of Si from the UV to the near-IR. The strategy provides opportunities for more efficient use of indirect semiconductors in photovoltaics, energy conversion, light detection, and emission.

Cognitive aspects of interaction in the “Human — Artificial Intelligence” system

Abstract The article, based on empirical and theoretical research, reveals the phenomenology of transformations of the human cognitive sphere when interacting with artificial intelligence. The analysis of the indicated changes in the cognitive sphere is carried out on the basis of the “Concept of cognitive multi-channel Human-Computer interaction” developed by us. The essence of this concept is that the interaction of the cognitive sphere of human and artificial intelligence is implemented on the basis of the actualization and formation of typical cognitive phenomena. These phenomena are considered systemically and multifunctionally, namely as relatively independent cognitive: types of interactions, stages, strategies, channels, ontologies. Within the conceptual and substantive framework of this concept, we distinguish the following types of cognition (channels, strategies, etc.): I – orientational-cognitive; II – subject-cognitive; III – communicative and cognitive; IV – cognitive and analytical; V – cognitive and hermeneutic; VI-cognitive-ontological; VII – cognitive and creative. The identification of the indicated types of cognitive interactions is aimed at its representation as a complex, dynamic, multidimensional, multichannel intellectual system, the features of which are significant for educational and sociocultural practices, as well as for further development of artificial intelligence technologies, including its functional orientation and specificity, ergonomics, architecture, design and features of the interface. A study was conducted among students of higher education institutions aimed at determining the cognitive specificity (structure) of interaction in the “Human – Artificial Intelligence” system. Based on the analysis of the results of the distribution of answers for each of the test questions and the interpretation of the results of the cluster analysis (the Canopy algorithm was used), the dominance of the “I – orientational-cognitive” type of interactions was determined, which indicates a rather significant but initial interest in artificial intelligence technologies. There is also a relatively even distribution of all other types of cognitive interactions. The above reveals the novelty and innovation of artificial intelligence technology. This correlates with the respondents having developed different types of cognition, namely: orientational, analytical-synthetic, conceptual, interpretive, ontological, creative thinking, and corresponding intellectual intentions and motivation to use artificial intelligence tools in various spheres of activity.

Decision-based Data Distribution (D³): Enabling Users to Minimize Data Propagation in Privacy-sensitive Scenarios

In many scenarios, users have to communicate sensitive data with third parties such as doctors, lawyers, insurance companies, social workers, or online shops. Handing over personal data is necessary to use those services, but delegating tasks to increase efficiency still poses the risk that personal data might be leaked. To minimize this risk and further enhance the privacy of users, we propose an interaction concept that uses layered encryption of messages to provide a trade-off between privacy and usability. Users can choose which data is additionally encrypted in an inner layer, e.g. only for the eyes of their doctor, and which data is available in an outer (encrypted or unencrypted) layer for all staff members. Another benefit is the hiding of sensitive data from package inspection or crawling algorithms via emails, while less critical parts can still be processed by these systems via the partial access. To investigate this concept, we derive relevant use cases for form-based communication via email from a quantitative pre-study with 1011 participants, showing that general practitioners are the most suitable use case. We developed demonstrators for this use case and evaluated them in a qualitative study with 42 participants. Our results show that the possibility of minimizing the propagation of sensitive data through additional encryption is highly appreciated and the usage of form-based communication is a promising approach for digital transformation.

Analisis Semantik Konsep Rezeki dalam Tafsir Al-Misbah dan Implikasinya dalam Konteks Kognitif dan Etis

This study examines Quraish Shihab’s interpretation of the concept of rizq in Tafsir al-Misbah through the lens of Jean Piaget’s cognitive development theory and Lev Vygotsky’s socio-cognitive theory. The academic problem addressed is how the concept of rizq, involving effort, prayer, and social interaction, can be understood from the perspective of cognitive development and social ethics. The study aims to fill the gap in tafsir analysis by incorporating psychological approaches, particularly in understanding how theological thoughts on rizq influence cognitive development and the formation of individual ethics. The research method used is textual analysis of Tafsir al-Misbah with theoretical approaches from Piaget and Vygotsky, exploring both cognitive and ethical aspects in the process of acquiring rizq. The novelty of this research lies in applying psychological developmental theories to tafsir analysis, a rarely undertaken approach in Quranic exegesis studies. The results indicate that Quraish Shihab's interpretation of rizq encompasses cognitive aspects that encourage logical and abstract thinking about effort and prayer, as well as ethical aspects that emphasize social responsibility and integrity in the pursuit of sustenance. This tafsir promotes the development of a proactive mindset and a strong ethical awareness through social interaction within the community.

Extending sexual scripting theory through critical discursive psychology: An analytical approach to explore the performance of sexual identities

Sexual scripting theory, a widely used tool in sexuality research, was originally developed by Gagnon and Simon to illuminate the social nature of sexual practices and identity construction. Later, they sought to develop the theory further to align with a social constructionist perspective. However, vestiges of individualism and cognitivism haunt sexual scripting theory largely due to the use of the symbolic interactionist concept of performance. To address this, we draw on the performance–performativity approach in critical discursive psychology that develops the notion of performance from a discursive perspective and offers a way of extending sexual scripting theory that offers a truly social explication of sexual identity construction. We provide a practical illustration of this extended theorising, drawing on data from a project about young people’s online engagement with pornography. We demonstrate how developing the notion of sexual scripts as discursive resources that enable the performance of sexual identities allows us to illuminate the social and situated nature of identity construction. This framework enhances understanding of the process of sexual identity construction and provides a valuable tool for studying how broader sexual scripts that are sociohistorically specific provide a scaffolding for the ways an individual can construct sexual identities. Overall, this paper offers a valuable contribution to discursive scholarship in psychology by presenting a nuanced analytical framework that coheres with a constructionist, performative view of identity.

Unmasking the complexities of healthcare access in low-resource settings: a health systems approach to obstetric and under-5 healthcare in rural settings of Eastern Uganda

ABSTRACT Background Access to appropriate obstetric and under-5 healthcare services in low-resource settings is a challenge in countries with high mortality rates. However, the interplay of multiple factors within an ecological system affects the effectiveness of the health system in reaching those in need. Objective This study examined how multiple factors concurrently affect access to obstetric and child healthcare services in resource-poor settings Methods The research used social autopsies [in-depth interview] with mothers who experienced newborn death [n = 29], focus group discussions [n = 8] with mothers [n = 32], and fathers [n = 28] of children aged 6–59 months, and the author’s field observations in Eastern Uganda’s rural settings. The research employed narrative and inductive thematic analysis, guided by concepts of social interactions, behaviour, and health institutional systems drawn from system theory. Results The study unmasked multiple concurrent barriers to healthcare access at distinct levels. Within families, the influence of mothers-in-law and gender dynamics constrains women’s healthcare-seeking autonomy and agency. At the community level, poor transport system, characterised by long distances and challenging road conditions, consistently impede healthcare access. At the facility level, attitudes, responsiveness, and service delivery of health workers critically affect healthcare access. Negative experiences at health facilities profoundly discourage the community from seeking future health services. Conclusion The findings emphasise the persistent influence of structural and social factors that, although well documented, are often overlooked and continue to limit women’s agency and autonomy in healthcare access. Enhancing universal access to appropriate healthcare services requires comprehensive health systems interventions that concurrently address the healthcare access barriers.

The Governance of Cybercrime: An Ecological Approach

Cybercrime is now the most common form of crime in Canada and causes significant financial and psychological harm. The criminal justice system struggles to address cybercrime due to its complexity, scale, and global nature. Criminologists are also challenged to think about cybercrime beyond established theoretical frameworks. An interdisciplinary approach is required to understand this phenomenon and enable us to craft effective policies. The discipline of ecology can provide valuable insights and a practical integrative framework through the concepts of community, interaction, and emergent effects. First, a high-level outline is provided of how the cybercrime ecosystem can be analyzed using basic ecological concepts and principles. This framework is then applied to the security community, showing how it is populated with a diversity of organizational and institutional entities that can be enabled or compelled to act in ways that enhance online security through a broad set of regulatory strategies. Finally, three innovative configurations that take advantage of this regulatory pluralism and novel forms of collaboration are described to illustrate how alternatives can be implemented to mitigate the negative impacts of cybercrime with promising outcomes.

The Impact of Simultaneous Epigenetic and Epitranscriptomic Intervention in Breast Cancer Cells

Aim: Breast cancer remains a significant cause of mortality worldwide, necessitating the development of innovative therapeutic approaches. Epigenetic and epitranscriptomic regulation have emerged as promising avenues for novel treatments. Sodium Butyrate (NaB) and Meclofenamic Acid (MFA) have gained attention for their respective roles in epigenetic and epitranscriptomic modulation. NaB, a histone deacetylase inhibitor, serves as a critical regulator of chromatin remodeling and gene expression. MFA has been identified to be a potent inhibitor of the FTO enzyme. This inhibitory potential marks its role in epitranscriptomic regulation. This study aimed to investigate the potential effects of MFA and NaB, individually and in combination, on the MCF7 breast cancer cell line. Method: In order to investigate the cytotoxic and apoptotic effects of the combination treatment of MFA and NaB, cell viability assay, Annexin V analysis and Acridine Orange/DAPI staining were executed. Results: The results revealed that the combination treatment unexpectedly exhibited antagonistic effects. This was evidenced by a remarkable increase in cell viability and a decreased apoptotic response compared to individual treatments. The strongest antagonistic effect was observed when the cells were treated with 100 μM MFA and 2 mM NaB for a period of 48 hours (CI = 88.3). Conclusion: This study, for the first time, sheds light on the complex interaction between meclofenamic acid and sodium butyrate that reveals an unexpected antagonistic effect on MCF7 breast cancer cells. These findings challenge conventional concepts of synergistic interactions and underscore the complexity of drug combinations in breast cancer treatment.

The impact of buy-online-pickup-in-store shopping on customer engagement: framework and propositions

This research aims to develop a new conceptual framework that investigates the effect of buy-online-pickup-in-store (BOPS) shopping on customer engagement and related outcomes from the touchpoint perspective. Based on the customer engagement theory and touchpoint literature, we define the concept of contact interactivity to explore the multiple touchpoints in the BOPS shopping experience and develop a conceptual framework and an associated set of propositions related to contact interactivity. To better understand contact interactivity, we propose the three dimensions of the customer–product interaction, customer–employee interaction, and customer–customer interaction, and further investigate the advantages of BOPS by comparing it with online shopping. This study has research implications for the BOPS literature by identifying specific touchpoints in multiple phases of the BOPS shopping journey and explaining the effect of BOPS shopping on customer engagement. We conclude by discussing important theoretical and practical implications that arises from our analyses.

BiotXplorer: Navigating Evidence-Based Biotic Interactions

BiotXplorer is an exploration tool to navigate biotic interactions in BiodiversityPMC (Pasche et al. 2023, Gobeill et al. 2020), a digitally native research library of articles for biomedical, biodiversity and environmental sciences stored in Journal Article Tag Suite (JATS)/BioC formats (Comeau et al. 2019). BiotXplorer pre-processes all documents and supplementary data thanks to the Swiss Institute of Bioinformatics (SIB) Literature Services (SIBiLS) to build pairs of species co-occurring in the same sentence together with a biotic interaction concept as defined in the Relation Ontology. A search service is built on top of this database, which aggregates all triplets matching the query and using taxonomic hierarchies to expand the search. Researchers can thus discover new biotic interactions and understand how they are supported by published evidence. We manually evaluated the precision of BiotXplorer with two benchmarks: 100 randomly selected biotic interactions from BiotXplorer and GLOBI (Global Biotic Interactions), a database of biotic interactions based on tabular datasets. Out of the 100 random triples generated by BiotXplorer, we achieved a precision of 31% when identifying the interacting species. For 74% of the correct interacting species, we accurately identified the type of interaction between the two species. The main causes of error were instances where passages listed multiple species, which can be automatically filtered out. For the second benchmark, we focused on a set of validated biotic interactions—instead of using potential ones—with 85% of the returned passages confirming an interaction between the two species. Our primary goal is to support the detection of biotic interactions across all species. While the precision is dependent on many factors, the vast amount of data it processes can reveal new insights and patterns. The inclusion of evidence for each triplet can support a wide range of One Health/Biosecurity (Hulme 2020) applications (e.g., eDNA characterization, virus spillover prediction). Furthermore, we are working on refining the system using different post-processing methods, such as reducing the volumes of triples by retaining only top-ranked, and therefore most reliable, triples.

From microscope to head-mounted display: integrating hand tracking into microsurgical augmented reality.

The operating microscope plays a central role in middle and inner ear procedures that involve working within tightly confined spaces under limited exposure. Augmented reality (AR) may improve surgical guidance by combining preoperative computed tomography (CT) imaging that can provide precise anatomical information, with intraoperative microscope video feed. With current technology, the operator must manually interact with the AR interface using a computer. The latter poses a disruption in the surgical flow and is suboptimal for maintaining the sterility of the operating environment. The purpose of this study was to implement and evaluate free-hand interaction concepts leveraging hand tracking and gesture recognition as an attempt to reduce the disruption during surgery and improve human-computer interaction. An electromagnetically tracked surgical microscope was calibrated using a custom 3D printed calibration board. This allowed the augmentation of the microscope feed with segmented preoperative CT-derived virtual models. Ultraleap's Leap Motion Controller 2 was coupled to the microscope and used to implement hand-tracking capabilities. End-user feedback was gathered from a surgeon during development. Finally, users were asked to complete tasks that involved interacting with the virtual models, aligning them to physical targets, and adjusting the AR visualization. Following observations and user feedback, we upgraded the functionalities of the hand interaction system. User feedback showed the users' preference for the new interaction concepts that provided minimal disruption of the surgical workflow and more intuitive interaction with the virtual content. We integrated hand interaction concepts, typically used with head-mounted displays (HMDs), into a surgical stereo microscope system intended for AR in otologic microsurgery. The concepts presented in this study demonstrated a more favorable approach to human-computer interaction in a surgical context. They hold potential for a more efficient execution of surgical tasks under microscopic AR guidance.

ON INTERACTIVE SOLUTION FOR TWO POINT FUZZY BOUNDARY VALUE PROBLEM

In this manuscript, the eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the twopoint fuzzy boundary value problem (FBVP) are analyzed under the concept of interactivity between the fuzzy numbers found in the boundary conditions. A fuzzy solution is provided for this problem via sup-J extension, which can be seen as a generalization of Zadeh’s extension principle. Finally, an example is presented in order to compare the given features.

Discovering and exploring conceptions of geography teaching: a teacher education starter pack

Initial teacher education, among other things, significantly influences what conceptions of geography teaching build the steppingstones at the beginning of pre-service teachers’ careers. Using a questionnaire, we conducted a survey on Czech pre-service geography teachers’ conceptions of geography teaching (n = 183). Our findings indicate that the Interactionist conception was prevalent, representing the exploration of interconnections and relations between humans and the environment. Pre-service teachers also emphasized the importance of the Localist conception that builds on exploring geographies of the local neighborhood. A path analysis revealed that the pre-service teachers’ conceptions were not much interconnected, often existing as independent, isolated entities. Our results attempt to provide implications for shaping the professional geography knowledge landscape of future geography teachers through a complex “starter pack” – a balanced representation of a range of conceptions of geography teaching in initial teacher education.

Spatial Interactions of a City-Region Using GIS and Survey-based Data

The concept of spatial interaction deduced from Newton’s first law of motion, which has been extended from interactions between two points of elements e.g., two cities to interactions between other points of other elements in a system, e.g., more than two cities, can be applied to elucidate settlements spatial interaction at the regional scale, particularly a city-region as a system. Elucidating the levels of spatial interactions in city-regions is crucial to support decision-making processes in regional development planning and policies, which in turn contributes to sustainable regional developments if implemented fully. The current study, therefore, combined Geographic Information Systems and survey-based data to evaluate the level of spatial interactions of a city-region as a system to support sustainable regional development planning and policies using the defined Abuja city-region as a case study. Data were collected through a questionnaire survey of residents, land cover maps that were produced using Remote Sensing processes of satellite image classification, and urban and regional land use plans. An integrated analysis was deployed, including descriptive statistics and spatial analysis through extraction, digitization, overlay, clipping, and geometrical calculation processes. Key findings showed that the work location for most residents in satellite settlements is Abuja city. Also, the study showed that while Lugbe, Kubwa, and Old Karu settlements have the highest level of spatial interaction with Abuja city, Kuje and Gwagwalada settlements have the lowest level of spatial interaction. The findings and their associated implications of the current study are useful to support decision-makers in planning and policies for the spatial distribution of urban infrastructures across settlements that make up defined city-regions in Sub-Saharan Africa in particular and in the Global South in general

"Will you need this health at all? Will you be alive?": using the bioecological model of mass trauma to understand HIV care experiences during the war in Ukraine.

Russia's invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 has severely impacted the healthcare system, including the provision of HIV care. The ongoing war is a human-caused mass trauma, a severe ecological and psychosocial disruption that greatly exceeds the coping capacity of the community. The bioecological model of mass trauma builds on Bronfenbrenner's concept of interaction between nested systems to argue that social context determines the impact of life events on the individual and how an individual responds. This paper uses the bioecological model of mass trauma to explore the impact of Russia's aggression against Ukraine and the ongoing war on HIV-positive people who use drugs in Ukraine, a particularly vulnerable population that may be negatively affected by disruptions to social networks, healthcare infrastructure and economic conditions caused by mass trauma. Data were collected between September and November 2022. A convenience sample of 18 HIV-positive people who use drugs were recruited from community organizations that work with people living with HIV, drug treatment programmes, and HIV clinics through direct recruitment and participant referral. A total of nine men and nine women were recruited; the age ranged from 33 to 62 years old (mean = 46.44). Participants completed a single interview that explored how the war had affected their daily lives and access to HIV care and other medical services; their relationships with healthcare providers and social workers; and medication access, supply and adherence. Data were analysed using the Framework Method for thematic analysis. The war had a profound impact on the social, emotional and financial support networks of participants. Changes in social networks, coupled with limited job opportunities and rising prices, intensified financial difficulties for participants. Relocating to different regions of Ukraine, staying at somebody else's home, and losing connections with social workers impacted medication adherence and created lengthy treatment gaps. Participants also experienced a decreased supply of antiretroviral therapy, concerns about accessing medication for opioid use disorder, and overwhelming fears associated with the war, which overshadowed their HIV-related health concerns and negatively impacted medication adherence. Our analysis reveals the complex impact of war on social networks and healthcare access. Maintaining support networks and competent healthcare providers will be essential amid the ongoing war.

The art of nursing in clinical care

Nursing is an art. Becoming a nurse requires more preparation for care than becoming a painter or sculptor. This is because they work with a lifeless canvas or marble, while nursing deals with a living body, which is the dwelling of the divine spirit. Many experts consider the art of nursing a combination of scientific facts, awareness, and a simultaneous integration of nurses' knowledge and understanding [1]. Nursing is widely regarded as an art where the concepts of art and practice in care are interwoven [2]. In a broader sense, nursing is an art of clinical decision-making and reasoning [3]. The art of nursing involves understanding the meanings of patient interactions, establishing meaningful relationships, and skillfully performing nursing interventions [4]. The art of nursing is about the creative use of nursing knowledge in clinical skills [5]. Therefore, the art of nursing refers to the innovative and purposeful skills to convey emotions and concepts to others [6]. In nursing, art means understanding the concept of health and human interactions and using nursing experiences in clinical decision-making [1]. According to Wiedenbach, the art of nursing is the integration of nursing knowledge and theories in clinical skills [7], as all nursing theories emphasize that nursing is both the science and art of care [1].

О влиянии «гидрофобности» газовой фазы на образование флотокомплексов в процессах флотации

Introduction. A model of a three-phase system in which, as a result of hetero coagulation from a bulk liquid, its thin layer has formed, the surfaces of which separate the gas and condensed phases with different potentials, is a wetting film. The study of wetting films adds to the knowledge of the nature of the structure-induced surface forces acting in them, which serves to develop the theory of hetero coagulation and is of interest for solving various topical problems of the theory and practice of flotation. The purpose of the work is to study the influence of “hydrophobic” properties of the gas phase on the separation of minerals by flotation with a vapor-air mixture in flotation schemes with jet countercurrent flow of feed and rough concentrate. Materials and Methods. Methods and installations have been developed to investigate the temperature dependence of the equilibrium thickness of wetting films and wetting edge angles. Studies of wetting films are supplemented by measurements of induction time at adhesion of minerals to each other and to an air bubble on a specially designed installation. In-situ flotation experiments were performed on a sample of apatite-nepheline ores. Results. The temperature dependence of the equilibrium thickness of the wetting film has been revealed, which does not contradict the experimentally established decrease of the exponentially decreasing (non-oscillating) part of the cleavage pressure with increasing temperature. It is shown that the temperature dependence of the boundary angles formed by the wetting film on the hydrophobic and hydrophilic surface is multidirectional. The connection between the temperature dependence of the boundary angle and the temperature dependence of the spreading coefficient obtained from Young’s law and determined by multiplication of parameters characterizing the magnitude and long-range action of forces caused by the difference between the structure and properties of the liquid in the boundary layers and their values in the volume is shown. “Hydrophobicity” of the bubble is associated with a smaller range effect of structural repulsion forces compared to hydrophobic attraction forces. By measuring the induction time, it is shown that the “hydrophobicity” of air manifests itself in the difference in the stability of wetting (when hydrophobic and hydrophilic particles adhere to the air bubble) and symmetric (when particles of the same hydrophobicity/hydrophilicity adhere to each other) films as the temperature increases. Discussion. In the framework of the phonon mechanism of surface forces, the dynamic structure of the liquid in the boundary layers (the sign and magnitude of the phonon component of the bowing pressure) determines the selectivity of aggregation and completeness of particle extraction, as well as the stability of symmetric and wetting films from temperature. Conclusion. When discussing the stability of disperse systems, the concepts of additional (to dispersive (van der Waals) and ionic-electrostatic interactions) forces associated with the overlap of boundary layers of liquids with structure parameters changed compared to their bulk values are fruitfully used. Such differences are understood as static deviations of the structure and properties of the liquid induced by the surface. However, the main reason for changes in the stability of wetting films at increasing temperature may be the high sensitivity to temperature of the entire set of rotational and vibrational motions of atoms and molecules of the liquid, i. e., its dynamic structure and the associated phonon component of the wedging pressure. Resume. The results of the study can be used to improve the technological performance of ores enriched by flotation. Consideration of the influence of linear tension on the system with the line of threephase contact will be useful for revealing the peculiarities of flotation of micro-dispersions of minerals by the developed technology.

Utilization Of Mindmeister For The Creation Of Learning Objective Pathways In The Implementation Of The Merdeka Curriculum

Merdeka curriculum has been implemented in schools for a few years, but there are still some obstacles to its implementation. Teachers find it difficult to design learning tools, starting from reducing learning outcomes to learning objectives and the flow of learning objectives. One of the solutions is the use of concept maps, which are assisted by the MindMeister application. The goal is for teachers to implement it into a flow of learning objectives. The method of implementing this service is in the form of training teachers with a practical approach. The result of this service is that teachers better understand how to create effective and visually interactive concept maps of learning objectives to plan, organize, and understand learning objectives. This helps teachers and students in carrying out the learning process in a more structured and focused manner. The use of information technology-based applications is very helpful for teachers in learning activities. Teachers must always adapt to any changes and improve their competence with consistent and continuous training, especially related to the use of information technology in learning.
