Content-related characteristics of the “movements culture” concept, the possibilities of its forming in senior preschoolers

This article is devoted to the problem of formation of movements culture in senior preschool children. The relevance of the article is determined by the need for competent organization of motor activity in preschool educational organizations, the search for new scientific and methodological approaches. The article provides an overview of academic works reflecting the content of the concepts of “motor culture” and “movements culture”: T. N. Zhurina and I. A. Milekhina define motor culture as part of the general culture of society, aimed at strengthening health, developing physical abilities of a person. E. V. Bondarenko, E. S. Medvedeva, N. Yu. Shumakova distinguishe the “movements culture” as an independent term and consider it part of the general culture of a person.The article offers the author’s definition of the concept of “movements culture of a preschool child”, it also reveals the possibilities of forming its components (motivational, cognitive-motor, creative) in senior preschool children by means of physical exercises and musical-rhythmic movements.

Do You Speak Disinformation? Computational Detection of Deceptive News-Like Content Using Linguistic and Stylistic Features

Amid growing concerns about the proliferation and belief in false or misleading information, the study addresses the need for automated detection in the public domain. It revisits and replicates scattered findings using a comprehensive, content-oriented, and feature-based approach. This method reliably identifies deceptive news-like content and highlights the importance of individual features in guiding the prediction algorithm. Employing explainable machine learning, the study explores content patterns for disinformation detection. Results from a tree-based approach on real-world data indicate that content-related characteristics can—when used in combination—facilitate the early detection of deceptive news-like articles. The study concludes by discussing the practical implications of computationally detecting the malicious language of disinformation.

Педагогическое сопровождение детей дошкольного возраста из семей военнослужащих в условиях военного конфликта

The study aims to determine the key characteristics of pedagogical support for preschool children from military families whose fathers were called up for military service as part of a special military operation, i.e. the concept of pedagogical support, its purpose, principles, by considering modern approaches to the problem of pedagogical support for such children. The paper offers the authors’ point of view on the understanding of pedagogical support for preschool children, since little attention has been paid to the problem of pedagogical support for preschool children from military families in the conditions of a local military conflict. The scientific novelty of the study lies in identifying the essential and content-related characteristics of pedagogical support for preschool children from the families of special military operation participants and citizens called up for military service during partial mobilization. As a result, scientists’ modern views on the problem of pedagogical support for preschool children from military families and the influence of the conditions of military conflict on the children’s emotional state are demonstrated, the authors’ own definition of the notion of pedagogical support for preschool children from military families whose fathers were called up for military service during a special military operation is given, the goals and principles of pedagogical support are specified. It is stated that pedagogical support is necessary for children from military families learning how to develop their own line of conduct, meaningful and necessary for them.

Сущностно-содержательные характеристики аксиологического подхода к формированию межкультурной компетенции иностранных студентов (теоретические основы)

The study aims to determine the key characteristics of the axiological approach to intercultural competence formation among foreign students: strategy, goal, functions, principles. The paper clarifies the definitional features of the notion of “value dominants”, reveals their content in relation to the target audience: value dominants of foreign students’ intercultural behavior in the multicultural space of the university. The scientific novelty of the paper lies in determining the essential and content-related characteristics of the axiological approach in teaching intercultural communication to foreign students in higher education. As a result, it is stated that the process of teaching intercultural interaction to foreign students in the multinational environment of the university should be aimed at the formation of such value dominants as tolerance, empathy, emotional maturity.

Гендерная специфика ассоциативного поля ВОЕННЫЙ в русском непрофессиональном языковом сознании

The research aims to identify the structural and content-related characteristics of the MILITARY MAN associative field in the non-professional Russian linguistic consciousness from a gender viewpoint. Using the results of an associative experiment, the paper presents an attempt to construct the gender-specific versions of the associative field under consideration that reflect its core and periphery structure and the thematic framework. The scientific novelty of the paper lies in the fact that the developed men’s and women’s models of the MILITARY MAN associative field were subjected to a comparative analysis, which became the basis for conclusions about the influence of the gender factor on the formation of the associative-verbal network. By analysing the respondents’ reactions, the main semantic zones of the MILITARY MAN associative field were identified, each of which was divided into thematic groups, with their content considered separately for each gender group. As a result, it has been determined that the gender-based versions of the studied associative field contain both common reactions, which reflect the general image of the MILITARY MAN in the Russian linguistic consciousness, and gender-specific reactions, which represent the distinctive features of this image in the male and female linguistic consciousness.

Developing a conceptual framework for short text categorization using hybrid CNN- LSTM based Caledonian crow optimization

Due to the continuous progression of social media networking sites, people share their thoughts, viewpoints, videos, speech and images through short texts. But the short texts are manually understandable but hard for the machine to collect data for clarification. The limited terms present in the short texts seem difficult while categorizing, analyzing as well as evaluating. Since social media and Bibliographic repositories like Digital Bibliography and Library Project (DBLP) contains a substantial amount of information, it is necessary to mine only useful information from the existing short texts. To achieve effectiveness and efficiency in short text categorization, the content-related characteristics derived from various machine learning techniques are admired. The significant objective of the proposed approach involves the categorization of short text and enhancing its accuracy, which can improve further finding collaborative research communities.. In this work, a hybrid convolutional neural network-long short term memory (CNN-LSTM) based new Caledonian crow optimization (NC2LO) model is utilized to classify the short texts. The crows utilize both social and asocial learning for developing tool modelling skills. Getting attracted to the behaviour of this variety of crows, and motivated by the learning strategy of crows, a new Caledonian crow optimization model referred to as NC2LO model is established. The conceptual framework of the proposed methodology consists of four different phases namely the data collection phase, data preparation phase, data pre-processing phase and short text categorization phase to classify the short texts with a high accuracy rate. Then, the proposed CNN-LSTM based NC2LO for short text categorization is evaluated using four different types of datasets namely IMDb, AG news, Twitter, and Tagmy News. Finally, the comparative analysis is carried out to evaluate the accuracy rate for various approaches and the analysis demonstrated that the proposed approach achieves a high accuracy rate of about 97%.

How social media users perceive different forms of online hate speech: A qualitative multi-method study

Although many social media users have reported encountering hate speech, differences in the perception between different users remain unclear. Using a qualitative multi-method approach, we investigated how personal characteristics, the presentation form, and content-related characteristics influence social media users’ perceptions of hate speech, which we differentiated as first-level (i.e. recognizing hate speech) and second-level perceptions (i.e. attitude toward it). To that end, we first observed 23 German-speaking social media users as they scrolled through a fictitious social media feed featuring hate speech. Next, we conducted remote self-confrontation interviews to discuss the content and semi-structured interviews involving interactive tasks. Although it became apparent that perceptions are highly individual, some overarching tendencies emerged. The results suggest that the perception of and indignation toward hate speech decreases as social media use increases. Moreover, direct and prosecutable hate speech is perceived as being particularly negative, especially in visual presentation form.

A Qualitative Analysis of Language Textbooks from Students’ Perspectives

The aim of this study is to examine the Turkish language textbook in terms of students’ perspectives in a holistic approach. The participants consisted of 25 fifth-grade students who were selected according to the maximum diversity sampling method. Data were collected through semistructured interviews with students by an interview form. During the semi-structured interviews, instead of focusing on specific characteristics of the textbook, both design-related and contentrelated characteristics of the Turkish language textbook are investigated holistically. An inductive approach with a content analysis method was used to analyze the data. According to the results obtained in the study, it was determined that students are aware of the strengths and weaknesses of the textbook and how it affects their educational process. In the discussion section, the findings obtained from students’ opinions about the language textbook and its reflections on their educational processes are discussed in detail in terms of the basic features found in a textbook.

Content of Civil Identity of Students

The empirical study featured content-related characteristics of civic identity in university students. According to constructivist approach, civic identity is a cognitive-value formation shaped in the process of personal development. It manifests itself in the subjective significance of one’s nationality. Its structure consists of cognitive (meaningful), affective (emotional-evaluative), and behavioral components. The cognitive component was the first stage in the present study of students’ civic identity conducted in February 2020. The authors used a Citizen’s Questionnaire developed by O. S. Deyneka and analyzed essays "Russia is My Country". The analysis revealed the structure of the substantial component of civic identity: the image of the state, government, fellow citizens, an ideal citizen, etc., and ideas about Russian values, environment, culture, history, etc. The data obtained gave reason to believe that civic identity has worldview, social, and territorial foundations. The respondents admired the nature, territory, and historical achievements of Russia, while the image of the state, fellow citizens, and authorities belonged to problematic representations. The present research can help to develop new technologies for the support of civic identity at university.

How Women Wrote about Themselves: A Corpus- informed Comparison of Women Writers’ Defences in Sixteenth- and Seventeenth-century England

Women’s written defences of their sex developed within the literary context of the querelle des femmes, a mainly male debate on female intellectual worth, which started in the Middle Ages and came to a peak during the Renaissance. This paper focuses on the discourse some women writers started to develop in sixteenth- and seventeenth- century England, when the growing number of misogynist attacks led some of them to respond in kind. The first works directly engaging the topics of the querelle are usually identified in Isabella Whitney’s poem The Copy of a Letter (1567) and Jane Anger’s Jane Anger Her Protection For Women (1589). These are coupled with three later pamphlets framed in the so-called Swetnam debate, from the name of the misogynist pamphleteer to whom these three women writers replied, namely A Muzell for Melastomus (1617) by Rachel Speght, Ester Hath Hang’d Haman (1617) by Ester Sowernam and The Worming of a Mad Dogge: or, A Soppe for Cerberus, a Redargution of the Bayter of Women (1617) by Constantia Munda. The qualitative reading of the texts reveals differences among them both in content and structure, which is supported by a corpus-informed quantitative comparison between the earlier and the later texts. The quantitative analysis also shows differences in the use of specific high and low frequency querelle-related lemmas, which signal a variation in the semantic fields related to the discourse on women. Such a mixed research method approach suggests that these variations could not be entirely ascribed to those literary works which had established the formal guidelines of the genre of the controversy, The Praise of Folly (1509) by Erasmus of Rotterdam and De nobilitate et praecellentia foeminei sexus (1529) by Heinrich Cornelius Agrippa von Nettesheim. To understand where these differences may come from, the English querelle texts are quantitatively compared with a small corpus of Italian defences of women, including Il merito delle donne (The Worth of Women, 1600) by Moderata Fonte and La nobilità, et l’eccellenza delle donne, co’diffetti, et mancamenti, de gli huomini (The Nobility and Excellence of Women and the Defects and Vices of Men, 1600; 1621) by Lucrezia Marinella. This quantitative analysis shows that English and Italian women writers appear to share some structural and content-related characteristics which cannot be found in either Erasmus’ or Agrippa’s works or contemporary English writers dealing with the querelle. The hypothesis is thus advanced that there may have been literary contacts between England and Italy that indirectly influenced the development of the discourse on women within the context of the querelle des femmes.

Let’s Get Real (Time)! The potential of real-time marketing to catalyze the sharing of brand messages

Social media are increasingly populated with brand messages that are linked to timely events, a practice that is also known as real-time marketing (RTM). In this study, we examine whether RTM is an effective strategy to boost sharing behaviour, and if so, what moment- and content-related characteristics contribute to its effectiveness. A content analysis of brand tweets from Nielsen’s top-100 advertisers (n = 1500) shows that RTM positively affects word of mouth. RTM is especially a more effective strategy when brand messages are linked with unpredictable events (vs. predictable). This can be explained by the meaningfulness dimension of creativity; brands make a more meaningful connection to timely moments in unpredictable RTM than in predictable RTM. Furthermore, we found support for the beneficial effects of moment-driven visuals; RTM messages are shared more when public events are visually integrated with those messages. No such effect was found for moment-driven hashtags.

Hospitality and Tourism Online Review Research: A Systematic Analysis and Heuristic-Systematic Model

With tremendous growth and potential of online consumer reviews, online reviews of hospitality and tourism are now playing a significant role in consumer attitude and buying behaviors. This study reviewed and analyzed hospitality and tourism related articles published in academic journals. The systematic approach was used to analyze 55 research articles between January 2008 and December 2017. This study presented a brief synthesis of research by investigating content-related characteristics of hospitality and tourism online reviews (HTORs) in different market segments. Two research questions were addressed. Building upon our literature analysis, we used the heuristic-systematic model (HSM) to summarize and classify the characteristics affecting consumer perception in previous HTOR studies. We believe that the framework helps researchers to identify the research topic in extended HTORs literature and to point out possible direction for future studies.

«Старый замок» Мусоргского в контексте аналогий и параллелей

In examining Mussorgsky’s piece “The Old Castle” from the suite “Pictures at an Exhibition”, the article draws parallels with various phenomena of world art (mainly, the art of music). Following the logic of intertextual approaches, they expand the scale of the content-related characteristics and elucidate the stylistic foundations. The genuinely national nature of the cycle of “Pictures at an Exhibition” is most evidently embodied in the outer sections of the piece in view of the links with Russian folk songs, Znamenny chant and horn-call compositions from the early 19th century. Its inherent idea – the embodiment, in Dostoevsky’s words, of the universal responsiveness of the Russian soul – is clearly manifested in the depictions from the life of other peoples and cultures. Among the realized analogies with the piece “The Old Castle”, some may seem obvious, others – unexpected. There is the Sicilienne genre, familiar to Russian composers from the 18th century, Wagner’s Tristan chord progression, the “cherishing soul of humanity” (according to Vissarion Belinsky), the theme of unrequited love, recalled from remotely ancient times, one of the novels of Akutagawa, the traditions of the troubadours and Meistersingers of combining through composition and a system of repeats, the principle of converging to sameness, familiar from Schubert’s work, the bar form, the Mugham, the Kuy and other Asian musical styles. All of this, of course, is unlikely to arise in a complex manner in the direct perception of Mussorgsky’s music. But does not the possibility itself of providing so many analogies testify of the rare breadth of his ideas about the world and art? All of this may be evaluated, obviously, from his letters and memoirs, but mainly in the effectiveness of the artistic endeavours, which were apparently carried out spontaneously and intuitively. And is not one of the sources of intertextual, polystylistic and collage-technique inspirations of composers of subsequent generations hidden here? Keywords: Mussorgsky, “The Old Castle,” parallels in art, Richard Wagner, Franz Schubert, Mugham.

Labor Potential of the Rural Territories - State and Development

Introduction Issues of development of LP of the employees in the agrarian sector acquire a special urgency due to the need to develop a new concept of reproductive labor resource that would meet the socio-economic and geopolitical interests of Russia. The article presents the analysis of the LP evaluation methodologies and development of the auctorial computation methodology of the LP evaluation of the rural population. The term "rural" designates the territorial belonging; however, rural-type settlements do not always coincide with the administrative boundaries or the location of a certain economic sector, which limits some approaches to the clustering of regions. In this respect, the term "rural territories" is used more often. In the Conception of Sustainable Development of the RF for the period until 2020 this term is defined as follows: the territories out of cities' borders that include territories of rural-type settlements and inter-settlement territories (The Conception of Sustainable Development of Rural Territories of the Russian Federation for the period up to 2020, 2010). Rural territories experts, in particular, recognize a special (specific) type of territories that includes merely rural (agricultural) as well as individual urban settlements (small towns of rural type, towns, etc.) being immediately interconnected with them, where, firstly, employment in the agri-food complex system is prevalent in the production industries, and, secondly, stable, active pendulum labor movements (labor exchange) in the city-village system are observed (prevail) (Novikov, Zhubarkin and Chalyi, 2013: 140; Breckova, 2016; Thalassinos et al., 2012; Havhcek et al., 2013; Liapis et al., 2013; Frank et al., 2016). In the modern context the problem of searching for, development and realization of internal reserves of the country, production and LP of people (population) becomes urgent. In view of this, it is necessary, first of all, to update the components and the methods of LP evaluation taking into account, firstly, the development of economic researches methodology as a whole, and, then, the modern global and national trends in the development of the socio-economic system at large. The raised problem suggests addressing to one of the fundamental categories of the labor economics--"labor potential" category as applied to the level of the region. The LP of the region is most commonly understood as a complex of properties, capabilities, and the regional labor force for exercising labor activity under the conditions of attained level of economics development. The LP of a region shows the development level of the region labor force capacity to a certain work (Alieva and Mirzabalaeva, 2012: 18; Bashmakov et al., 2015). The LP of a region includes characteristics of the able-bodied part of its population that is capable for the productive labor in a logical connection with the educative and professional structure as well as its capability of the maximum production of goods and services, which will be in demand under the given conditions of the market environment. Therefore, the LP is a culminating form of the human resources capabilities implementation in the region (Zinovyev and Shchetinin, 2014; Hani El-Chaarani, 2014). Analysis of the researchers' viewpoints with respect to the essence and content-related characteristics of the LP allows to note a certain synergetic nature of this phenomenon that suggests not only a sum of the qualitative and quantitative parameters of human resources of a territory considered in the potential aspect, but also evolution of principally new features of the whole socio-economic system. The differentiation of the socio-economic development of regions for a variety of criteria dictates the need to clarify the categories "employment potential of the rural population", "quality of LP of the population of rural areas" that have made it possible to reflect the regional specifics. …

Calidad formal, impacto y visibilidad de las revistas electrónicas universitarias españolas

An analysis evaluating electronic journals published by Spanish universities was performed, taking into account both formal aspects and cybermetric indicators. The aim of this study was to analyse the impact and visibility of these web-based publications. The number of publications, their formal and content-related characteristics, and their use of features and tools provided by the electronic medium were all considered. The results fall below expectations, due to formal problems in the structure and contents of the journals' websites, resulting in low visibility and, therefore, low impact.

Aus heiterem Himmel? – Zur Problematik der zeitlichen Einordnung der Sūrat al-Fātiḥa, Sūrat al-Kawṯar und Sūrat al-Iḫlāṣ

Abstract Both in classical Qurʾānic exegesis and in Islamic, i.e. Orientalist, studies the dating – distinguishing strictly between either Meccan or Medinan origin – and interpretation of Sūrat al-Fātiḥa, Sūrat al-Kawṯar and Sūrat al-Iḫlāṣ has excited much controversy amongst scholars of both disciplines alike. Faced with diverging contexts of emergence, scholars of Qurʾānic tafsīr attempted to tackle the difficulties in classifying and interpreting ambiguously dated surahs by formulating patterns of explanation, suggesting, amongst other things, the repeated revelation of certain surahs or their bipartite structure. On the other hand, Orientalists employing the historical-critical method of interpretation sought to categorise and interpret the surahs according to their historical, literary-critical, phenomenological and content-related characteristics. However, both methods have failed to provide a distinct, unambiguous classification into either the Meccan or Medinan context. In their article, authors O...

БАНКОВСКИЙ КЛАСТЕР: ПОНЯТИЕ И СПЕЦИФИЧЕСКИЕ ЧЕРТЫ

The modernization within the system of banking sector highlights the importance of the issues related to the system’s entry into a new level of development making banking institutions to set the tasks of the provision of credit and mortgage services availability for the population. Although, specified requirements cannot be implemented without banking cluster, which allows creating favorable conditions for the functioning of banking institutions offering lower interest rates for the loans to the population. This phenomenon attracts the studies of Russian and foreign scientists, however, the scientists still use various definitions of the concepts used. In connection with the above stated, the issue of the necessity of the detailed study of this activity arises. The paper covers the study of the definition of the “banking cluster” concept. The authors carried out the theoretical study of the existing definitions of banking cluster showing that the relatively small number of works cover the study of this concept definition, and that the concept of “banking cluster” is absent in the Russian legislation today, and that different opinions are spoken out about its essence, the peculiarities of its denotation and the definitions of its content-related characteristics. At the same time, the complexity, the fragmentation of banking cluster definitions take place and it hinders the formation of the clear understanding of this phenomenon. The paper highlights three basic characteristics of this concept, such as economic potential, political potential, and banking infrastructure. The authors considered functional features of the proposed characteristics that reveal the ways of optimal application of their opportunities in banking activity and carried out the decryption of three basic characteristics, each of them is disclosed by three concepts. According to the results of the study, the authors formulated the definition of banking cluster, which is based on the categorical method of two-level triadic decryption of basic concepts. The proposed definition is based on the specific characteristics of the cluster being formed within the banking sector and contributes to the development of the theory of clusters.

БУХГАЛТЕРСКИЙ АУТСОРСИНГ: ПОНЯТИЕ И СПЕЦИФИЧЕСКИЕ ЧЕРТЫ

The relevance of the issue under the study is caused by the fact that accounting outsourcing is one of the ways of the company's costs reduction in today's world. This phenomenon concentrates the study of domestic and foreign scientists; however, different definitions of the concepts are used in science until now. In this connection, the issue of the necessity of this activity detailed study is raised. The paper covers the study of the definition of the concept of “accounting outsourcing”. The theoretical research of the existing definitions of this concept carried out by the authors showed that the works covering this issue give various opinions on the essence, special aspects of explanation and description of the content-related characteristics of the notion of “accounting outsourcing”. In addition, there is no such a concept in the RF regulation now. At the same time, we have the multidimensionality and the fragmentation of the accounting outsourcing definitions that prevent the formation of the clear understanding of this phenomenon. The paper highlights three basic characteristics of the concept of “accounting outsourcing”: the information infrastructure, the subjects of outsourcing activity, the legal framework. The authors consider operating specific features of suggested characteristics revealing their directions for optimal use of possibilities in accounting outsourcing activity. The authors interpreted three basic characteristics each of which is described by three concepts, such as 1C software, information communications, internet resources, outsourcers, customers, regulatory authorities, regulatory support, accounting, tax code. On the results of the study, the authors formulated the definition of the concept of “accounting outsourcing” which is based on the categorical method of two-level triadic interpretation of a basic concept. Suggested definition is based on specific features of outsourcing being formed within the sphere of accounting and reducing the company’s costs. Suggested definition contributes to the development of the outsourcing theory placing accounting among the other types of outsourcing.
