Familiar Things Research Articles

Суть и истоки повышения роли финансовой грамотности в современной экономике

The article examines the increasing importance of financial education in Russian society in the conditions of a qualitatively transforming Russian economy, in which events and phenomena significantly change the attitudes of society, knowledge, and understanding of familiar things and circumstances. It identifies three historical stages, which were identified as the origins of the elimination of financial illiteracy, then the emergence and increasing role of financial education, and, finally, the development of the population’s need to acquire competencies in the financial and digital spheres. The author believes that it was financial shocks that provoked state, financial, and educational structures to study international experience and implement a whole range of educational measures in the field of finance. The paper records the theoretical essence and significance of the concept of “financial literacy” corresponding to the second stage and the unfolding of “digital financial literacy” corresponding to the current stage of the economy under the conditions of digitalization. And if the financial education of Russians, as reflected by the indices of the level of financial enlightenment, is growing, then the digital format is difficult for certain categories of the population and scares away by the presence of many fraudulent schemes that bring losses to users. And in order to achieve an increased level of digital financial literacy, effective, innovative pedagogical technologies are recommended, reflecting the prospects and prestigious advantages for those who have mastered modern digital financial competencies.

Философские смыслы образа дома в народной культуре

The article highlights the philosophical meanings of the home as a phenomenon of linguistic culture, revealing the ancient layers of the hidden in folk culture, allowing to discover the true nature of familiar things. It is emphasized that the analysis of the meanings of home allows us to better understand the worldview of our ancestors, their ideas about the world and man’s place in it. The ontological foundations of the home, presented in all cultures as the center of the universe, a microcosm, opposed to the chaos of the outside world, are revealed. An analysis of the phenomenality of the meanings of the words “home”, “fire”, “smoke”, “name”, “surname (family)”, “blood” in the Chechen linguistic culture is given. Conclusion dwells upon the fact that the peculiarities of the interpretation of home in the cultures of sedentary and nomadic peoples, the general and special are emphasized, which determines their mental originality; it is substantiated that fire is an important factor in the formation of social communications and the phenomenality of a home. In the Chechen linguistic culture, the symbolism of home is revealed in the origins of human sociality, when fire organizes a special space of unity for everyone who gathers around it. It is stressed out that in modern society there is a change in the semantics of home as a problem of everyday life.

Konflik Perebutan Lahan Parkir di Sekanak yang Memicu Bentrok antara Dinas Perhubungan dengan Sejumlah Kelompok

Fighting over parking spaces is certainly a familiar thing to hear because it happens very often in the city of Palembang, especially in the Sekkan area. Usually, phenomena like this occur due to clashing views, high levels of egoism, group fanaticism, lack of openness and, most importantly, lack of communication between parking attendants. The aim of this research is to find out how conflicts over parking spaces in childhood trigger clashes between the transportation service and a number of groups. The research method used is descriptive qualitative research, namely research that aims to describe or examine systematically, factually and accurately the facts, characteristics and relationships between the phenomena being investigated from the research object. The results of this research show that there is a conflict between parking attendants and the transportation service where there is a conflict over land which encourages cooperation between parking attendants. Other causal factors include economic needs, low education, social jealousy, lack of parking space, encouragement to usurp rights, and lack of attention from the government in parking management.

Love Objects: Eros and the Materialistic Aesthetics of Ernst Lubitsch

This article explores the role of filmic objects within the romantic relationships featured in Ernst Lubitsch’s silent The Marriage Circle (1924) and the comedy Trouble in Paradise (1932). I argue that these objects reflect a unique engagement with the materiality of film décor, which makes use of the strong presence of objects to portray intimacy as the site of inconclusive meaning. By examining both films together, I demonstrate how the world of inanimate objects brings erotic undertones to the surface while challenging the material conditions of the erotic itself. In order to do so, I examine the ways in which Lubitsch relies on material details not only as functional narrative devices, but as elements that challenge and complicate our interpretations of familiar things. While the underacknowledged use of objects in The Marriage Circle illustrates the logic of displacement that stands at the center of the director’s style, Trouble in Paradise provides a framework for recognizing the critical role of objects in the structure of desire in his films. This article sets up a new reading of tactility and materiality in Lubitsch’s use of mise en scéne and seeks to give objects a prominent role in the analysis of his style.

Cognitive approach experience to the metaphor analysis (on the basis of the navy language)

Metaphorization in the naval LSP (Language for specific purposes) is studied in the cognitive linguistics context. The text understanding process is closely related to the phenomenon of mental situation image. In this case, the linguistic interpreting function reflects not only psychological features of the information perception, but also socio-cultural knowledge. The purpose of the article is to analyze some metaphors in the naval domain, to establish the relationship between linguistic and extralinguistic factors, to focus some regularities of nomination when constructing logical or metaphorical connections between different conceptual and thematic areas and their elements. The process of interaction between knowledge structures of two conceptual domains - sphere «source» and sphere «target» is considered. Procedure and methods. The study applied the methods of discursive and semantic analysis. When naming a new object, a person usually has associations with familiar things. That is why the metaphorical nomination sources in the naval discourse are body parts and animal names which describe humans from different perspectives. For example, "pigeon", "birds", "bilge rat". The origin of "the eyes of the ship" metaphor is explained. The results of the study show that the metaphors in the LSP of navy are formed according to the most regular models of semantic transfers. In metaphorical formations the national specificity is obvious, so the national language characteristics in the highly professional naval sphere are identified. The research results contribute to the further LSP cognitive study. The theoretical foundations of the naval discourse formation mechanisms are stated. The relationship between the naval language functioning and the specific features of the domain are established.

Machine learning role playing game: Instructional design of AI education for age-appropriate in K-12 and beyond

The study on K-12 artificial intelligence (AI) education poses three challenges: "(i) What topics in the machine learning (ML) process should be hidden from K-12 students?” " (ii) How do you teach K-12 students the mathematical model behind the ML process?” and " (iii) How does AI education influence the acceptance of AI technology?”. This paper addresses challenges (i) to (iii). We developed a machine learning role-playing game (ML-RPG) and had 166 participants from lower grades of elementary school to the elderly use it. Participants used ML-RPG to role-play the ML process of acquiring data, representing data with graphs, inferencing based on if-then rules, and optimizing parameters based on loss functions in the ML model. Challenge (i) was assessed using an achievement test. The results showed that the ML process of perception at K1-3, data representation and reasoning based on if-then rules at K4-6, and simple ML model learning and evaluation at K7+ can be unveiled. Challenge (ii), K7+ were able to understand the optimization process of the ML model by role-playing to minimize the loss function shown on the graph. Challenge (iii), it was shown that most people who feel vague anxiety and fear about AI change to a positive impression of AI due to the following three factors: (a) participants understanding the decision criteria of AI, (b) increased self-efficacy among participants, and (c) participants realizing that AI can be applied to familiar things.

Predicting the Destruction of Composite Materials Using Machine Learning Methods

Machine learning is a major trend in today's world. Machine learning algorithms are used in almost every area of human life. One of these areas is the creation of new composite materials. Composite materials are used everywhere, from dental prosthetics to aircraft construction. Composite materials allow you to endow familiar things with new properties. For example, lightening the mass of unmanned aerial vehicles. Another example is the creation of such materials that are able to have increased strength to create new wear-resistant road surfaces. Combining such two areas of research as machine learning and composite materials will allow the creation of new materials with unique properties. Machine learning algorithms allow you to find dependencies that a person could not find before due to the fact that the amount of information being processed is huge. This study is aimed at developing algorithms for predicting the strength failure of composite materials using machine learning methods.

Cifrovye tekhnologii v dele ohrany kul'turnogo naslediya

The purpose of the study is to identify ways to use digital technologies in the protection of cultural heritage, opportunities and risks. Cultural heritage is evidence of historical experience, a source of knowledge of previous generations, the cause and basis of modernity. Monuments of archeology and architecture, sculptures, paintings, natural and man-made att ractions have always been sources of inspiration and catalysts for the development of innovations, allowing you to look at familiar things fr om a new angle and rethink the existing experience. Th at is why it is of particular importance to study the features of the protection of cultural heritage through the use of digital technologies.

Korelasi Antara Pengetahuan Teori Dan Kemampuan Praktik Penyiaran Mahasiswa KPI IAIN Parepare

Abstrak. Broadcasting is a familiar thing in society, many people are familiar with broadcasting but only look at the outside without understanding the parts inside broadcasting itself, in broadcasting there is theory and practice, these two things are very important and interrelated with each other. others, so for people, especially students who will or want to be involved in the world of broadcasting, especially for students who take majors related to broadcasting such as students of the KPI (Islamic Broadcasting Communications) IAIN Parepare study program, they must understand and master these two things, because One cannot practice broadcasting without understanding the theory first, because theory is the main thing and foundation before doing broadcasting practice. The ability to practice broadcasting can be seen how KPI IAIN Parepare students are able to realize and implement what they have learned and understood in the theoretical learning process, and they display these abilities and knowledge in the broadcasting practice process. This is based on the theory of Communication Skills, where this theory discusses the ability or quality of a person's communication performance. One theory that explains communication skills is skill acquisition theory. Each stage refers to information contained in long-term memory. Declarative information provided by basic memory for facts, while procedural information relates to events in the process of doing and doing something.

Ecosystem dynamics of air transport business development in the digital age

Aim. The presented study aims to analyze the dynamics of air transport business development in the era of digital transformation from the perspective of the implementation of the ecosystem paradigm as a relevant modern business model organization concept.Tasks. The authors investigate approaches to defining the concept of “ecosystem” in the field of economic relations; reveal the essence of approaches to defining the structure of the economic ecosystem; describe key trends in the development of air transport within the paradigm of the ecosystem concept.Methods. This study uses general scientific methods of cognition in various aspects to analyze scientific approaches to defining the concept of “ecosystem” in the field of economic relations and defining the structure of the economic ecosystem, and to identify trends in the development of air transport within the paradigm of the ecosystem concept.Results. The introduction of the ecosystem concept into business processes leads to changes in the attitude to the concept of “competition”. The theory of rivalry is replaced by the practice of convergence — the alignment and unification of different technologies into new types of technologies. Technological convergence changes the nature of familiar things. The authors identify and analyze three essential characteristics of the concept of “ecosystem”, the joint implementation of which makes it possible to entertain the possibility of implementing the ecosystem concept of business development in practice. The digital basis of ecosystem organization ensures its modular structure, which, in turn, determines the ease and flexibility of both connecting participants to the system and exiting it. By forming new consumer preferences, the ecosystem allows participants to work with consumers successfully. In the context of the assessed advantages of the ecosystem, the authors identify and investigate its 13 disadvantages. Seven key development trends are identified from the perspective of assessing the prospects for the ecosystemization of professional activity in the passenger air transport market.Conclusions. The tourism market is the most popular sector for ecosystem development in the air transport industry at the current stage of market development. Tourism ecosystems are a definite trend of inter-product cooperation, including those using the services of airlines, airports, and aggregator sites. The authors believe that the issues of theoretical understanding and practical analysis of the ecosystem dynamics of air transport business development in the digital age remain not fully investigated and need to be studied in detail. In further studies, the authors will analyze the organizational and legal nature of ecosystems, the essential characteristics of the structural elements of the ecosystem, the types of ecosystems in air transport, and the practice of their implementation.

ПАРАДОКС ЯК КЛЮЧОВИЙ КОМПОНЕНТ ІДІОСТИЛЮ АВТОРА (НА МАТЕРІАЛАХ ТВОРІВ ОШО)

The article is devoted to the analysis of the use of paradox in the meditative works of Indian mystic Osho. We single out the paradox as a key component that the author uses to update his worldview and profile the idea of the erroneousness of conventional ideas about the world and a person’s place in it. In the works of the author we find paradoxes about humans, nature, enlightenment; paradoxes about life and death. The paradox (supplemented by an oxymoron and antithesis) as one of the main stylistic devices, has a large charge of expression, evokes various emotions and is used by the author to reveal the ideological and pragmatic meaning of works and their conceptual content. We assume that the paradoxical nature of the studied works is caused by the influence of philosophical teachings of the East, which profess self-knowledge and self-improvement, which is more important than knowledge of the world around us. Incompatibility, marked by a paradox, is a direct reflection of the dialectical unity and struggle of opposites that prevails in nature and is reflected in human thinking and worldview. With the help of paradox, the author conveys the complexity and contradictions of both the surrounding reality and the inner world of a person. We have encountered cases of using a paradox, supplemented by similes and parallel constuctions. Therefore, the language of the author of meditative works deserves attention in terms of these stylistic figures, which are often used in convergence to achieve the highest rhetorical and semantic effect. The stylistic figure of paradox is used by the author to reveal the ideological content of the works and profile the key concepts: LIFE, TRUTH, TRUTH, ENLIGHTENMENT, BEING, etc. The author focuses on important aspects, sharpens the reader’s attention, makes you look at familiar things from a different angle. As a result, we claim that the paradox in the studied works performs an actualizing function in order to draw attention to known truths and their (according to the author) erroneousness.

How did Ethnic Sports Disseminate to the World? : A Case Study on the Localization of Taijiquan in Japan before 1970s

This paper aims to reveal the development of Taijiquan in Japan before 1970s. by analyzing the materials including Yomiuri Shimbun (newspaper published since 1874), Asahi Shimbun (newspaper published since 1879), Taiiku Nihon (magazine published between 1940 and 1944), books related to China, and materials from interview on Japanese martial artists, the following results were found. In 1932 Sakuma Teijiro, a journalist, published a book that introduced 77 with Chinese custom. Among which, Taijiquan’s techniques were mentioned. So far this is the first time Taijiquan has appeared in historical materials in Japan. After late 1930s, Taijiquan began to appear more often in the articles on newspaper and magazine. The articles used karate (“唐手” or “空手”), jujutsu (“柔術”), or gymnastics, which are familiar things to Japanese, to introduced Taijiquan. In 1940, Chu Minyi, then ambassador of Japan, published an article on Taiiku Nihon to introduce Taijiquan in detail. However, Taijiquan was still not popular in Japan during 1940s. After 1949, due to the Cold War and conflicts between East and West countries, only few articles in materials mentioned Taijiquan and the content mainly comes from Hong Kong and Taiwan instead of mainland China. This situation continued until the late 1960s when Taijiquan has been gradually attracting attention as a health method. The Japan Taijiquan Association was formed in April 1968. Then in 1979, after about 10 years of formation of the Japan Taijiquan Association, Taijiquan has already developed into a movement with a certain degree of recognition in Japan.

‘Going home when it was not home’: Jamais Vu in Nineteenth-Century British Fiction

Abstract ‘Jamais vu’ is a strange mnemonic disturbance that we continue to experience today, though few of us know what to call it. French for ‘never seen,’ jamais vu is the opposite of déjà vu (‘already seen’), and is defined as the temporary inability to recognize familiar things, people, and/or contexts. This essay comprises, to my knowledge, the first literary history of jamais vu. I begin by describing the complex features of this mnemonic disturbance, and uncovering its lost Victorian scientific archive. Though jamais vu went without a name until the 1920s, I also find it hiding in plain sight in nineteenth-century novels as early as Jane Austen’s Mansfield Park, as well as in the work of Charles Dickens, William Makepeace Thackeray, George Eliot, and Elizabeth Gaskell. From here, I follow jamais vu’s trajectory from realist accounts of everyday life into mid-century representations of the haunted house, where it becomes something more than a mnemonic disturbance. By attending to literary representations of jamais vu avant la lettre, I demonstrate its importance not just as a lost Victorian scientific concept, but also as a rich interdisciplinary category that is of great interest to scholars of the nineteenth century and beyond. Specifically, I show that jamais vu was integral to the development and popularity of the Victorian gothic, through which movement it exceeded its status as a mnemonic disturbance, re-emerging as a pervasive modern affect that we have inherited from the Victorians.

The challenges of entering the metaverse: An experiment on the effect of extended reality on workload

Information technologies exist to enable us to either do things we have not done before or do familiar things more efficiently. Metaverse (i.e. extended reality: XR) enables novel forms of engrossing telepresence, but it also may make mundate tasks more effortless. Such technologies increasingly facilitate our work, education, healthcare, consumption and entertainment; however, at the same time, metaverse bring a host of challenges. Therefore, we pose the question whether XR technologies, specifically Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR), either increase or decrease the difficulties of carrying out everyday tasks. In the current study we conducted a 2 (AR: with vs. without) × 2 (VR: with vs. without) between-subject experiment where participants faced a shopping-related task (including navigating, movement, hand-interaction, information processing, information searching, storing, decision making, and simple calculation) to examine a proposed series of hypotheses. The NASA Task Load Index (NASA-TLX) was used to measure subjective workload when using an XR-mediated information system including six sub-dimensions of frustration, performance, effort, physical, mental, and temporal demand. The findings indicate that AR was significantly associated with overall workload, especially mental demand and effort, while VR had no significant effect on any workload sub-dimensions. There was a significant interaction effect between AR and VR on physical demand, effort, and overall workload. The results imply that the resources and cost of operating XR-mediated realities are different and higher than physical reality.

The nonhuman object in Ama Ata Aidoo’s ‘Nowhere cool’: A black feminist critique of Object-oriented Ontology

abstract Nowhere cool’, a short story by Ama Ata Aidoo, is divided into two sections. In the first, a child sits in a classroom in what is presumably Ghana, feeling alienated by the “familiar things that were begin chased away by the demands of the culture of our conquerors” in the literature discussed by the teacher (2002, p. 136). In the second, a Ghanaian woman travels in a plane across the United States of America (USA). She notices a plastic address tag on the baby of the woman next to her, and starts thinking of plastic as material, of oil and of how slavery makes humans into cargo. This short story therefore consists of philosophical rumination on the nature of humans’ relationship to material and literary objects. I read ‘Nowhere cool’ as part of a black feminist epistemological tradition aimed at exposing the situatedness of supposedly neutral western thought, and at emphasising the embodiment and social embeddedness of all knowledge. I argue that the story’s specific focus on the nonhuman and on extractive economies allows for it to be read as a corrective to the same universalising gestures in posthumanist considerations of the nonhuman. I bring the story into dialogue with Graham Harman’s (2018) Object-oriented Ontology (OOO) to contend that while OOO is aimed at criticising anthropocentrism, a specific human perspective (that of the western white male) is “overrepresented” (Wynter 2003) in it. This has consequences for OOO and posthumanism more generally, since it means that the new relationship to the nonhuman Harman proposes is divorced from the reality of many humans’ relationship with the nonhuman. Posthuman ontologies need to build on the insights of black feminism in order to not replicate the skewed nature and resultant inaccuracies of hegemonic theories of the past.

Découverte et méconnaissance du poisson fermenté: Le cas des dictionnaires jésuites du Japon

It seems likely that the time has come for Latin and Greek studies to address the question of liquamina with reference to Asia. This article therefore aims to draw attention to the fact that in 1595, in the Amakusa dictionary, related Latin terms were actually translated in Japanese. The analysis of this initial confrontation sheds some light on a hitherto unseen aspect of the problem: liquamina, being filtered liquids, have to be by-products of something else, and to be valid, it is here that any comparison should begin. The Amakusa dictionary, on which the Portuguese and the Japanese collaborated, and sometimes opposed each other, betrays traces of the Japanese endeavour to discover familiar things, beyond the Latin terms. In the subsequent Nagasaki dictionary, fermented fish appears, amidst its vegetarian variants, as the very touchstone of Jesuit food acculturation, allowing us to grasp the cultural paradigm through which the Fathers understood otherness in the Japanese context, namely Greco-Latin Antiquity. This long-forgotten Jesuit understanding of fermented fish products leads us even deeper into the problem of representations associated with fish fermentation.

Erving Goffman’s Trite Metaphors

The article reconsiders Goffman’s legacy in the light of present-day realities. The author deems the revitalization of cognitive metaphors to be premise and necessary condition for viability of the dramaturgical perspective. Metaphors awaken when they begin to wake us up, come to life when they give us life. In view of this, an attempt has been made to reveal all-too-human and atemporal facets of the tropes we are all very familiar with – in other words, their primary existential foundations. However, as G. Lakoff and M. Johnson put it, relationships between metaphors are based on entailment, or on sub-categorization. Sharing P. Riсоеur’s point of view that “metaphorical sense as such feeds on the density of the imagery released by the poem” – and actually, by any metaphorical text – the author makes clear meanings elusive and “deciphers” Goffman’s writings using his (Goffman’s) own “prompt messages” or low-key details to resolve some kind of semantic ellipsis. As a result, key metaphorical lines of reasoning under discussion include (1) perspective–frame–door; (2) world–theatre/as if–sleep; (3) man–actor–shadow. Our attention is drawn to the astounding similarity between frame analysis and brushwork of Belgian surrealist Rene Magritte who challenged preconditioned perceptions of familiar things giving them new contextual meanings. In the concluding section a cautionary note about the possible transformation of Goffmanisque metaphors to prophecy is sounded.

Information Systems and Management of Political Dynasty in the Constitution of Election in the Country of Indonesia in the Perspective of the State Constitution

An information system is absolutely necessary in making logical decisions so that the policies developed are in accordance with the applicable law. This article discusses political dynasties from state constitutional law and human rights, whether constitutional or unconstitutional. This article uses a normative research method, which examines the law, the state constitution, and the Constitutional Court decisions related to political dynasties in the implementation of general elections. Political dynasties are a familiar thing in organizing general elections; political dynasties certainly reap the pros and cons. Still, as a legal state, Indonesia must also provide legal certainty regarding how the law views political dynasties. Basically, in this study, based on the rule of law and the state constitution, political dynasties are not unconstitutional; political dynasties do not violate the state constitution; with the prohibition on political dynasties, it is an unconstitutional act and violates human rights. The provisions of the Law on Human Rights prohibit the existence of political dynasties that do not prioritize human rights values, which are regulated in the Law on Human Rights; provide legal protection for every citizen has the right to vote and be elected in general elections. And stated firmly that political dynasties are prohibited, because they are not in line with the constitution and also the values of human rights.
