ЕКОЛОГІЧНІ НЕБЕЗПЕКИ: ВИСВІТЛЕННЯ НОВИХ ВИКЛИКІВ У НІМЕЦЬКОМОВНИХ МАСМЕДІА

This study focuses on the coverage of environmental threats in the German-language media. The methodology of this study is based on the ecolinguistic approach, particularly the achievements of media ecology, identifying the harmonization of the media space as a priority for journalism and a relevant area for linguistic studies. The German-language media focuses on the environmental challenges caused by the war in Ukraine, the threat of imminent climate change, and the COVID-19 pandemic. The effectiveness of their media presentation by the lexical and stylistic means is becoming relevant for linguistic research. The anthropocentric worldview of the human being causes a significant manipulative effect of anthropomorphic metaphor on the reader and helps to promote a conscious attitude to the environment. The distinguished models of metaphor and metonymy, used to increase the emotional plane of the described content, indicate the possibility of their use as a tool for awakening ecolinguistic consciousness. The socio- and psycholinguistic experiment determined the peculiarities of the German-speaking respondents' reception of publications on environmental issues. Representatives of the younger generation (mostly students) were interviewed, which allowed forming an idea of their interest in overcoming ecological problems and finding out popular sources of information about them. The impossibility of an immediate comprehensive expert assessment of the consequences of the war in Ukraine for all ecosystems determines further research into the means of media attention to this issue.

Egalitarian and utilitarian approaches in the green logistics of multimodal grain’s transportation

A multi-agent approach is proposed in the complex researches time and cost indicators of multimodal freight transportation on the railway loop, carried out in the direction of the port unloading stations. Along with the traditional subjects of the transportation process, such as the infrastructure owner, the carrier, the operator company (the rolling stock owner), the logistics company and clients (consignors and cargo’s owners), a “green logistics” agent is introduced. This agent is a concept that accumulates forms of manifestation of a conscious attitude of society to the environment in transport and logistics activities. Based on the assessment of the transport and technological railway loop infrastructure and the cost of transport services, a mathematical model of the freight transportation process is built, which is a multi-criteria transport problem. The choice of objective functions and constraints in the task is aimed at, first of all, taking into account the diverse interests of the agent “green logistics”. The algorithm for solving the problem, presented in the form of an integer programming problem, is based on the fundamental principles of the egalitarian and utilitarian approaches in the welfare theory. The implementation of the corresponding calculations for the grain transportation is performed in the environment of the computer mathematics system.

Taking into Account the Individual Characteristics of Those Entering Primary School

School readiness is one of the key components that ensure the success of education. The factors determining a child’s readiness for school include parameters reflecting indicators of physical, psychosocial and psychophysiological development. Morpho-functional immaturity of brain systems that provide the possibility of mental and motor activity, perception and processing of information causes various difficulties in learning. There are various methodological approaches that determine the level of readiness of children for systematic schooling. In the work, Kern-Irasek tests for visual activity (drawing on a given topic), logical and categorical thinking were used to assess readiness for school, an analysis of general awareness and the degree of psychosocial maturity was carried out. The work was carried out on students of the 1st grade of a small rural school and a kindergarten preparatory group. Among the 1st grade students at the end of the 2nd quarter, only girls were prepared for school according to all the analyzed indicators. There were no “immature” children among them, whereas for boys the figure was more than 60%. Overall, the number of “immature children” in the whole class was 33.3%. It is significant that the children belonging to the “immature” group were, as a rule, from large families, where they were not given due attention. Among the children of the kindergarten preparatory group, a larger percentage of those belonging to the category of “mature” and “middle-aged” (90%) were identified. At the same time, the test results again revealed the best results among girls. The data obtained should be considered as evidence of earlier psychofunctional development of girls in relation to boys, which is manifested in their more conscious attitude to learning, better abilities to implement conditional reflex activity, cognitive learning, performance indicators in the first years of training. The high percentage of “immature” children among 1st grade students emphasizes the need for mandatory testing of preschool children and the creation of optimal conditions for their physiological and psychosocial development. Keywords: school maturity, preschool children, psychophysiological factors, school readiness. For citation: Gappoeva V.S., Habaeva Z.G.

Discourse of corruption in the Russian society

Objective: to study the socio-cultural and legal nature of the corruption phenomenon in a discursive and communicative context.Methods: the methodological basis of the article is the synthesis of the discursive and communicative theory of J. Habermas and W. Krawietz’s integrative theory of legal reality, focusing on the interdisciplinary study of corruption as an interdisciplinary category, taking into account not only objective, but also subjective components. This determined the choice of research methods (comparative, hermeneutic, and discursive methods).Results: corruption as a phenomenon and the interdisciplinary category reflecting it is determined by social, cultural and psychological factors of the legal reality development. Acting as a complex legal archetype, it defines the value attitudes of consciousness and behavior of the legal communication participants, orienting them to carry out actions aimed at satisfying individual (less often group and social) interests, even if they contradict the law. Corrupt behavior is perceived by a large part of the Russian society as a model of hierarchical interaction of the legal communication subjects, the purpose of which, according to the addressee, is to increase the effectiveness of the addressee’s activities. In addition, corruption is becoming an informal means of “liberation” from the legal requirements, rigid and unfair, according to some representatives of the society. In these conditions, the success of the institutional fight against corruption can be achieved only if this fight involves not only improvement of anti-corruption legislation, but also countering shadow norms, creating a system of anti-incentives for corrupt behavior, including ideologically, through the formation of value attitudes of citizens to reject corrupt practices as unpatriotic and harmful to the rule of law and the legal culture of the society as a whole.Scientific novelty: for the first time in Russian jurisprudence, a study of the category of corruption in the communicative and discursive aspect was conducted.Practical significance: the main provisions and conclusions of the article can be used in scientific and pedagogical activities when considering the issues of the essence and content of the Russian legal reality, in the anti-corruption activities of state and municipal bodies, as well as in anti-corruption education.

General Data Protection Law

Technological advances make it possible to quickly access and share personal data and information, which demands greater security and requires conscious attitudes from the different professionals who deal with these issues. Accounting professionals stand out in this universe for being responsible for customer, supplier, and employee data. The information insecurity scenario led to the creation of the General Data Protection Law (GDPL), a specific legislation for personal data handling. Driven by this context, this research aimed to analyze the GDPL compliance determinants among accounting professionals. In order to achieve this purpose, we conducted a quantitative, descriptive, survey study. For data collection, we developed and applied an online questionnaire addressed to accounting professionals. The final surveyed sample totaled 194 respondents. We performed the data analysis through Structural Equation Modeling. The validated model showed the dimensions of personal behaviors and attitudes and governance mechanisms as determinants, explaining 26.3% of GDPL compliance. This research contributes to the understanding of behavioral aspects of accounting professionals in face of the new legislation. It is an unprecedented approach and fills a gap in the accounting area, presenting useful contributions for educational institutions, class associations, and companies in the area.
